Speaker 2: she's a terrible friend. But then they'll be like, actually,
Speaker 2: maybe she's not a bad friend. But we'll discuss it.
Speaker 2: But in the meantime, we have a special guest joining
Speaker 2: us today. Don Cheto is going to be here. You
Speaker 2: know how exciting that is if you've been watching Fight Night.
Speaker 2: That's an amazing series that's out now on Peacock. Right
Speaker 2: on Peacock. Yeah, it's on Peacock. I'm on episode five
Speaker 2: so far, but I know it's further along. But that's
Speaker 2: when with Kevin Hart to Rojji p Henson Samuel L. Jackson,
Speaker 2: Saint Quai Walls. I mean, everybody's in that. But anyway,
Speaker 2: let's get the show started with some love and some
Speaker 2: positivity and zinger.
Speaker 3: That's how we do it.
Speaker 2: We always start to show off with shining a light
Speaker 2: on somebody doing something positive. Eight hundred two ninety two
Speaker 2: fifty one fifty. Callus up and let us know who
Speaker 2: you want to shine a light on.
Speaker 3: It's way up.
Speaker 2: It's in the rooms.
Speaker 4: From industry shade to all of gosp out. Angela's speeling that, EyeT.
Speaker 2: It's way up with Angela Yee, I'm here and I'm
Speaker 2: joined by my guest co host and Zinga Amani. Hey, y'all, who,
Speaker 2: by the way, can sing oh period and right if
Speaker 2: you all could hear her behind the scenes every time
Speaker 2: we play some Mary Jay of course, But let's get
Speaker 2: into some yet all right.
Speaker 3: First, let's talk about Megan is Stallion.
Speaker 2: She has a documentary that's going to be on Amazon
Speaker 2: October thirty first, and it's called in her words right,
Speaker 2: and she's going to talk about her twenty twenty shooting
Speaker 2: Startum and a whole lot more. Yes, you know, it's
Speaker 2: also kind of a period of time where after the shooting,
Speaker 2: just kind of dealing with the aftermath of that. She
Speaker 2: definitely was getting attacked a whole lot online.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, and I'm gonna make the stallion stand, so don't
Speaker 5: come for me. I'm excited to hear her story and
Speaker 5: her talking about everything because people really villainized her, and
Speaker 5: I want to hear what she.
Speaker 2: Has to say. Yeah, And I think it's important for
Speaker 2: her to say what she needs to say in her words,
Speaker 2: because I feel like she's done articles, she's done an
Speaker 2: op ed, but we can't even imagine what it must
Speaker 2: have been like for her to go through that whole situment.
Speaker 2: People were acting like she lied about getting shot, and
Speaker 2: then people were mad at her.
Speaker 5: It was so public, It was so public, and then
Speaker 5: everybody wanted to choose a side, and even some of
Speaker 5: the other artists chose their side and were against her.
Speaker 2: It was tough to watch, all right.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 2: Another thing that's coming out is a Chris Brown documentary
Speaker 2: called A History of Violence, and that's going to be
Speaker 2: premiering on October twenty seventh. That's on Discovery I D
Speaker 2: And here is the trailer that was least Chris Brown's
Speaker 2: an amazing and talented musician.
Speaker 3: But let's call a thing a thing.
Speaker 2: He's an abuser of women.
Speaker 7: Siner Chris Brown, He's been detained in an alleged case
Speaker 7: of break he has an audience full of sault deniers.
Speaker 8: Oh I, I'm not spoken about this, not or publicly,
Speaker 8: but that's the only way he can be stopped.
Speaker 2: And that's a person whose voice is clearly altered. But
Speaker 2: they're saying there is a new person coming forward now.
Speaker 2: I saw a lot of backlash over this documentary online.
Speaker 2: People were like, you know, let it be. He's apologized,
Speaker 2: he's paid his dues. Rihanna's not, you know, talking about
Speaker 2: this anymore. Why are we trying to drag him down.
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going to actually be in this
Speaker 2: documentary yet, but I can imagine if there's things that
Speaker 2: he feels like are not true. Because I don't know
Speaker 2: who this new accuser is, and clearly they don't want
Speaker 2: to be known, I could see him trying to do
Speaker 2: a se syndesist. Absolutely.
Speaker 5: I when you're a celebrity and people are coming at
Speaker 5: you from all different points, some people you haven't met,
Speaker 5: some people you've been around, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 5: the story changes. I mean not saying anyone is lying,
Speaker 5: but just you don't know from his perspective what the
Speaker 5: situation may be. So to have your whole career changed,
Speaker 5: your opportunities shifted because of one misunderstanding or an allegation
Speaker 5: because he hasn't been acute, I mean, he hasn't been
Speaker 5: you know, prosecuted in any of this.
Speaker 2: Well, the Rianna thing, I think he's acknowledged that. Yeah, definitely,
Speaker 2: and we've seen the aftermath of that. In a statement,
Speaker 2: the film's producers are saying, with expert and cultural commentary
Speaker 2: layered throughout, the documentary provides thoughtful reflections and to each
Speaker 2: survivor's experience and the psychological destruction and the aftermath.
Speaker 3: Of their abuse.
Speaker 2: So it should be you know, we're gonna see how
Speaker 2: all of this plays out before October twenty seventh, all right,
Speaker 2: and the baby has settled the battery lawsuit over this
Speaker 2: confrontation with the la homeowner who accused him of battering
Speaker 2: him during a racially charged incident. Now this has been settled,
Speaker 2: a civil lawsuit has been settled, and according to the report,
Speaker 2: the person who was accusing him, Gary Pegar, is saying
Speaker 2: that he beat, punched, spat on, threatened, shoved, and robbed
Speaker 2: him while filming a video on his property.
Speaker 3: Said he discovered over forty people on the.
Speaker 2: Set tried to shut down a video shoot and that's
Speaker 2: when the baby, he alleged, became violent and knocked out
Speaker 2: his tooth. And also he's being accused of stealing items
Speaker 2: of kitchen wear and causing damage to the property. But
Speaker 2: the baby is saying that Pegar called him the N word,
Speaker 2: and the homeowner did admit to that, oh, and said
Speaker 2: that it wasn't relevant to the legal dispute.
Speaker 3: But I can you know, you can't just go around.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it might be a little relevant cause and effect,
Speaker 2: all right, but this has all been settled now and
Speaker 2: behind him, all right. Well that is your Yet when
Speaker 2: we come back, we have about last night. That's where
Speaker 2: we discussed what we did last night. And Sega, you're
Speaker 2: gonna tell us what you've been up to because I
Speaker 2: know you're in heavy promo mode.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the team is coming back absolutely.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I'm being stuck around New York to tell people about
Speaker 5: the show and everything that we have going on.
Speaker 2: We're about to discuss about last night.
Speaker 7: Yes, I went down.
Speaker 2: Yo, it's way up at Angela yee, I'm here and
Speaker 2: Zena and Mini is here with me today. Hey, guest hosting.

Speaker 3: Oh Thursday? Okay?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's on BT Plus Thursday, October third. All right,
Speaker 2: And so you play the character of Angela. Great name,
Speaker 2: thank you. Angela means a messenger of good news, like
Speaker 2: an angel. Oh I love that, but sometimes your news
Speaker 2: is not so good. Now on the show, you have
Speaker 2: been dating Bryce, but unfortunately you guys broke up. But
Speaker 2: before we get to that, I want to talk about
Speaker 2: what you've been doing here. Oh well, I was born.
Speaker 5: In New York, so whenever I come back, you know,
Speaker 5: I try to make my stops, but I spend a
Speaker 5: lot of time at Central Park just filling the vibes
Speaker 5: all like nature. So I had to get a little
Speaker 5: bit of greenery in. And then I intended on going
Speaker 5: to a Broadway show, but you know, I just did
Speaker 5: not plan accordingly. So next time I come on Monday
Speaker 5: to hook up, somebody let me know how I can
Speaker 5: get these tickets last minute?
Speaker 3: What do you what do you want to see?
Speaker 2: Oh? Anything wicked?
Speaker 5: Chicago. Oh, Alicia keys Is, thank you. Yes, I would
Speaker 5: like to see this.
Speaker 3: Okay, you should have let me know.
Speaker 2: I've gone to see Wicked here, and we've done special
Speaker 2: events because Broadways right here by the studio, and so
Speaker 2: we've done things with like our listeners to go to
Speaker 2: a Broadway play.
Speaker 3: I love going to Broadway plays. Okay, I love that
Speaker 3: for us.
Speaker 2: Well, I was filming lip Service last night and we
Speaker 2: have the Baby episode is coming out today. By the way,
Speaker 2: he started an organization called The Baby Cares You. Noah's
Speaker 2: brother died by suicide, and this is something that he's
Speaker 2: doing to help other people who may be going through it.
Speaker 2: And he's actually gonna start therapy and so I think
Speaker 2: that's a big step. Absolutely. And he has a new
Speaker 2: project out too, by the way, So how to f
Speaker 2: is this a mixtape? All right? Well, I want to
Speaker 2: talk about like you said on Thursday, October Thursday, the
Speaker 2: team is coming back and your character. We don't know
Speaker 2: what's going to happen if you and Bryce are gonna
Speaker 2: get back together, but this is the reason y'all broke up.
Speaker 9: I'm into a lot of things and I like to swing.
Speaker 9: I was planning on telling you about it.
Speaker 2: Wait, so like swinging with other couples.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I like being with guys like being with girls,
Speaker 9: and I only do it with people that I feel
Speaker 9: comfortable with and.
Speaker 2: That I know all right now, Not just that, but
Speaker 2: he also did try to kiss Zach and that is
Speaker 2: your best friend Fatima's fiance. Yes, so it's a lot
Speaker 2: here to unpack. But the main thing is I also
Speaker 2: was thinking about Dochi. She was on the Joe Button
Speaker 2: Show on his podcast, and she was saying that she's
Speaker 2: dated bisexual men before. She herself is bisexual, so it
Speaker 2: doesn't bother her. She just has an issue if your
Speaker 2: DL right, And so in this case, he told her
Speaker 2: this is what I do.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but this was after the fact, you know, It's
Speaker 5: not like he came into the relationship or even before
Speaker 5: they started officially dating and said this is what you're
Speaker 5: dealing with. It wasn't until the situation happened where he
Speaker 5: was basically outed that he decided to come clean. And
Speaker 5: so I can't give him all the credit in this scenario.
Speaker 2: Okay, well we want to ask you guys, what would
Speaker 2: you do if you found out the person that you're
Speaker 2: dating is bisexual? Would it bother you would it affect
Speaker 2: their relationship? You know, maybe they're just with you now,
Speaker 2: but they've done things before with both sexes. And you know,
Speaker 2: fluidity is a real thing nowadays. Okay, we want to
Speaker 2: know what your thoughts are. If it's happened to you.
Speaker 2: Eight hundred two nine two fifty one fifty, call us
Speaker 2: up and let us know what your experience is. Again,
Speaker 2: that's eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty.
Speaker 3: It's way up.
Speaker 7: Yeah, what's hey? You want to know my name? Way
Speaker 7: up with Angela Ye? Turn me on.
Speaker 2: All right, it's way up with Angela Ye. And I'm
Speaker 2: here with my guest co hosts and Zinga Imani and
Speaker 2: we're talking about is a team of coming back on
Speaker 2: Thursday on BET Now we are discussing your character Angela
Speaker 2: on the show. And you're dating a guy named Bryce
Speaker 2: or you were, but you guys broke up and here's
Speaker 2: what happened. Hello.
Speaker 9: I'm into a lot of things and I like to swing.
Speaker 9: I was planning on telling you about it.
Speaker 2: Wait, so like swinging with other couples?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 9: I like being with guys, like being with girls, and
Speaker 9: I only do it with people that I feel comfortable
Speaker 9: with and that.
Speaker 3: I know, all right, but you are not into that.
Speaker 2: He also tried to kiss Zach and that's your best
Speaker 2: friend's fiance.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the big kicker here. It's like, it's one
Speaker 5: thing if you have this, but talk to me about
Speaker 5: it and definitely don't let me find out through my
Speaker 5: best friend and her boyfriend.
Speaker 2: All right. Well, it's interesting because Dotie was on Joe
Speaker 2: Butten's podcast and she was saying that she's dated guys
Speaker 2: who are bisexual in the past, and she's also bisexual.
Speaker 2: And I feel like sexual fluidity is the thing where
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, do your thing, love who you love,
Speaker 2: no big deal, But what are the parameters when it
Speaker 2: comes to dating?
Speaker 3: When do you tell somebody?
Speaker 2: Because I also feel like early in a relationship, when
Speaker 2: you guys first get together, you don't know where it's going.
Speaker 2: Maybe you don't tell all your business. I don't know
Speaker 2: when do you bring that up?
Speaker 5: I feel like you got to tell at least before
Speaker 5: it becomes an official relationship.
Speaker 2: Okay, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: Like, I mean, you have your talking stage, but if
Speaker 5: you're going to be my boyfriend, I'm gonna need to know.
Speaker 2: What else you're into all the things, all right, Well, Nrie,
Speaker 2: what do you think about dating somebody who is bisexual?
Speaker 10: I kind of think it's a little bit crazy, but
Speaker 10: it depends on your preference. I was recently dating somebody
Speaker 10: that I found out was bisexual. It kind of made
Speaker 10: me stuck away. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 10: you know, there's not really.
Speaker 8: Much that you can do it or you don't.
Speaker 2: Okay, you do you wish you would have told you
Speaker 2: ahead of time?
Speaker 8: Yeah, because we have a kick together, so I.
Speaker 2: Get at the disclosure. At least let me know for sure.
Speaker 2: Would you still have dated him?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Okay? Really okay? Well, thank you, Nyrie. See that's what
Speaker 2: I gotta be honest.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what it starts with, honesty, because you got
Speaker 8: to give a person an option or if you want
Speaker 8: to be with you or not.
Speaker 3: All right, well, thank you for Colin.
Speaker 6: Yep, bye bye, Haylen, Hi, how are you?
Speaker 2: I'm good? It's me and and we're talking about dating
Speaker 2: somebody who's bisexual.
Speaker 3: Would that bother you or would you be okay with it?
Speaker 6: It would absolutely bother me. First of all, I'm heterosexual,
Speaker 6: but there's too many health risks nowadays too many diseases
Speaker 6: associated with swinging and having multiple sexual partners and things
Speaker 6: like that.
Speaker 2: It's more of the multiple partners and the swinging part
Speaker 2: that you don't like. Yes, well, what if they were
Speaker 2: just in a person, Yeah, with just one other person
Speaker 2: that happened to be a man, or if they were
Speaker 2: with that person before you. Yeah, No to each his own.
Speaker 6: But I just believe that God made man and woman
Speaker 6: for a purpose. I don't have anything. I don't hold
Speaker 6: any harsh feelings or anything like that. If that's the
Speaker 6: way you roll.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's just not for you that no. Okay, all right,
Speaker 2: well thank you. Make sure you watch Sisters and Zatima.
Speaker 2: She's gonna hate it, okay, John, joh, what's up?
Speaker 8: What's going on?
Speaker 7: It's me and Zinga.
Speaker 2: We want to know your thoughts about dating somebody who's bisexual.
Speaker 11: Well, to be honest, I don't have an issue with it.
Speaker 8: So my story was that I was in a relationship
Speaker 8: with a.
Speaker 11: Girl for about four years and come to find out
Speaker 11: she got the best friend she was doing things with, so,
Speaker 11: you know, as the same old things in the dark
Speaker 11: coming in the light. At the time, I didn't have
Speaker 11: an issue with it. My issue was she was hiding it,
Speaker 11: and also I felt the way because it's kind of selfish,
Speaker 11: you know how you're gonna go have some fun with
Speaker 11: some females and not include the homie, you know.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's selfish, selfish. So you've been okay if you
Speaker 2: were included.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I would be okay. I mean, I'm totally appreciating
Speaker 11: you know.
Speaker 3: How did you find out to be honest?
Speaker 11: I did my homework a little going through the phone.
Speaker 2: Knew there was seeing say I, guys, go through the
Speaker 2: phone to him, believe you.

Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 2: And I know you living Atlanta now, yes I do.
Speaker 2: So there was a lot of energy around this. How
Speaker 2: many it's been like over half a year now? Right
Speaker 2: over six months? How long has it been a year?
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's coming up on a year now,
Speaker 2: is it really?
Speaker 3: How long has it been?
Speaker 7: Do?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 2: Anyway, they're asking for a mistrial, and while they did
Speaker 2: not get a misschild, that's been denied by the judge
Speaker 2: because you know, it's a new judge.
Speaker 3: Judge page Reyes Whittaker. Here is what she had to
Speaker 3: say in court.
Speaker 12: It is baffling to me that somebody with the number
Speaker 12: of years of experience that you have continues to seemingly
Speaker 12: purposefully hide the ball for as long as you possibly can.
Speaker 12: And I really don't want to believe that it is purposeful,
Speaker 12: unless it is just that you are so unorganized that
Speaker 12: you are throwing this case together as you try it.
Speaker 2: I mean, it kind of feels like maybe it's not happening.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, like, maybe they do need
Speaker 2: to have a misschild. It feels like a mess. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's been going on a really long time, so it's
Speaker 2: definitely opening. Statements were made November twenty seventh, twenty twenty three,
Speaker 2: and then the jury selection lasted longer than any other
Speaker 2: in Georgia history, by the way.
Speaker 3: All right, and they actually just had delays too because
Speaker 3: of the hurricane.
Speaker 2: Oh well yeah, all right, well you guys, that is
Speaker 2: your yet when we come back, we have under the radar.
Speaker 2: These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines.
Speaker 2: They're flying under the radar. But yeah, definitely need to
Speaker 2: know about them. It's way up with Angela Yee. Under
Speaker 2: the radars next right now? Hate it, I love it.
Speaker 3: It's way up the news.
Speaker 7: News.
Speaker 4: This in the news that relates to you. These stories
Speaker 4: are flying under the radar.
Speaker 3: All right, it's way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 2: I'm here and of course I have my special guest
Speaker 2: co host with me today and Zinga Imani. Hey you
Speaker 2: know her from Zatima and from Sisters. She plays the
Speaker 2: character of Angela. All right, you ready to get into
Speaker 2: some of these under the radar stories? Talk about it
Speaker 2: for all of our fans of the brand Off White,
Speaker 2: LVMH Louis Vaitama Wait Hennessy has sold the brand to
Speaker 2: a management company called the Blue Star Alliance, and so
Speaker 2: those are brands like Scotch and Soda, BB and Hurley.
Speaker 3: Those are the other brands that are in that portfolio.
Speaker 2: So they acquired sixty percent of Off White from Virgil
Speaker 2: in July of twenty twenty one, and now they've sold
Speaker 2: it to another company. There were no disclosures of what
Speaker 2: the financial details were, but they're saying that they were
Speaker 2: having some struggles ever since Virgil was not with the
Speaker 2: company obviously anymore since he passed, and so he was
Speaker 2: able to fuse street culture with high fashion. It's late
Speaker 2: a powerful foundation that aligned with our vision a fostering
Speaker 2: innovation while embracing diversity. That's the CEO of Blue Star Alligned,
Speaker 2: Joey Gabby in a statement, Do you like I've always
Speaker 2: liked Off White. They've done a great deal, But I
Speaker 2: do see how it's kind of fallen off. I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna lie. I don't know enough about it. Yeah, they
Speaker 2: used to have the they used to have the collabse
Speaker 2: with was it Jordan? Yeah, the Jordan collabse those used
Speaker 2: to sell crazy. I remember those used to be on
Speaker 2: stock X. I actually have a pair of them, but
Speaker 2: they used to go crazy. They still do, right, But
Speaker 2: now I feel like the newer things, and I do
Speaker 2: like off Wite and I have some of their product,
Speaker 2: But it maybe is you know, when you have somebody
Speaker 2: like Virgin that was ahead of it, that was such
Speaker 2: a visionary, it is difficult to keep something going like that.
Speaker 2: All right now, the vice presidential debate is going to
Speaker 2: be on tonight. That's going to be a movie and
Speaker 2: itselfs Tim Walls versus j d Vance. Oh my goodness,
Speaker 2: I can't even imagine what jd Vance is going to
Speaker 2: be saying tonight. The debate is being moderated by CBS
Speaker 2: is Nora o'donnald and Margaret Brennan. It starts at nine
Speaker 2: pm Eastern, and so should be interesting to see what
Speaker 2: the both of them have to say.
Speaker 3: Jade Vance just says, I think.
Speaker 2: Whatever, Remember he said those comments about childless cat ladies.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's definitely against women having a voice. I feel
Speaker 5: like that's what I'm seeing from.
Speaker 2: Him, right they you know, abortion, family issues, those are
Speaker 2: topics that they're going to talk about and I think
Speaker 2: Tim Walls, as we have seen on many occasions, has
Speaker 2: been a lot more relatable.
Speaker 3: Yes, let's just say that.

Speaker 2: Hey, Hey, gir hey, and we're gonna talk to you
Speaker 2: after this yet about what's going on, And we're going
Speaker 2: to get some spoilers from the new season of Zatima
Speaker 2: di mad is all right, But in the meantime, according
Speaker 2: to Houston lawyer Tony Busby, he is saying that there
Speaker 2: are over one hundred new civil suits being filed against
Speaker 2: Diddy that will include new criminal charges, and they're also
Speaker 2: announcing a plan to launch a phone hotline for new
Speaker 2: Diddy accusers. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, none of this looks like it's going to work
Speaker 3: out in his favor. Guys.
Speaker 2: Now, Diddy is again trying to get himself released on bond.
Speaker 2: By the way, he's building a powerhouse legal team to
Speaker 2: try to make that happen. According to these new court documents,
Speaker 2: he has filed the appeal for the most recent order
Speaker 2: denying him bond. This next moment be his third formal
Speaker 2: attempt to secure his release from behind bars as he
Speaker 2: is waiting for a trial.
Speaker 3: He's also added two more attorneys.
Speaker 5: Okay, needs that team with one hundred new cases pending
Speaker 5: and a hotline.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't know what's gonna end up happening
Speaker 2: for him, but it's not looking good. Let's just say that,
Speaker 2: all right now, y'all hear this? Cardi B playing well.
Speaker 2: Cardi B went on Live to talk about her relationship
Speaker 2: with Offset and how they were doing when she found
Speaker 2: out that she was pregnant with their third child earlier
Speaker 2: this year. Here's what she had to say.
Speaker 13: I woke up one morning and my mouth tasted like copper.
Speaker 13: And this only happened to me when I'm pregnant. So
Speaker 13: I was like, damn. I automatically knew that I was pregnant.
Speaker 13: Then I remember I had sex on band Tim's Day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my baby dad.
Speaker 13: We were in very bad terms. I still called them
Speaker 13: to it and I was like, hey, I'm pregnant, and
Speaker 13: we kind of laughed about it because it's like, what
Speaker 13: the We literally went to Columbia because he went with
Speaker 13: me when I got my surgeon.
Speaker 2: All right, well see it wasn't anything that was planned.
Speaker 2: But you know, first, I will say that Carti seems
Speaker 2: like an amazing mom, and it seems like she loves
Speaker 2: motherhood and all of that.
Speaker 5: And I appreciate that they're not shading each other on
Speaker 5: their parenting skills. They're keeping it positive for the kids.
Speaker 5: But I wish they would be a little bit more
Speaker 5: private about all the issues because it's all out.
Speaker 2: There, I know, and Carti's always been like, very open
Speaker 2: with everything that's going on. It's also a way of
Speaker 2: controlling your narrative right before somebody else says it for you. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And it's part of the reason why we like her. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So it's a hard balance to have to have all
Speaker 2: right now again, Rest in peace to de Caambe Matumbo.
Speaker 2: You know, he passed away from brain cancer at the
Speaker 2: age of fifty eight, and his son actually wrote a
Speaker 2: letter to him, Ryan Mtumbo said, my dad will forever
Speaker 2: be my hero. Not because of his success, not because
Speaker 2: of the millions who over the last four decades have
Speaker 2: come to know and love him. My dad is my
Speaker 2: hero because he simply cared. He remains the purest heart
Speaker 2: I have ever known. At times I thought of my
Speaker 2: dad as a superhuman. The child of me would sigh
Speaker 2: to hear that this was never actually the case. My
Speaker 2: dad was a regular man who would stop at no
Speaker 2: lengths to honor the world, it's people, and its creator.
Speaker 2: He loved others with every ounce of his being. That's
Speaker 2: what made him so accessible, That's what made him real
Speaker 2: that's a beautiful thing, all right.
Speaker 3: And lastly, we have Melissa for it.
Speaker 2: She's joined Carlos King on his podcast It's Out to
Speaker 2: Day Now. I love a Melissa Ford interview, and she
Speaker 2: has her own podcast that's launching Hot and Bothered, and
Speaker 2: she talked about a lot of different things. Like she's
Speaker 2: been in the industry for quite some time. We've known
Speaker 2: her as a video vixen, but she's so much more
Speaker 2: than that. She's on Joe Buden's podcast now. Actually met
Speaker 2: her when we work together as serious we both hosted
Speaker 2: radio shows. Well, here's what you had to say about
Speaker 2: didty parties and people's demons coming to the light.
Speaker 14: So some of these rappers did they try to use
Speaker 14: their power to get your pants?
Speaker 5: It was expected that something would or could happen to you,
Speaker 5: and you just had to figure out how to be
Speaker 5: hyper vigilant about your safety.
Speaker 14: Do you believe that more men are going to be
Speaker 14: exposed like Diddy is based on what you know and
Speaker 14: have seen in your lifetime, Yes, there's way.
Speaker 2: More than just him. Okay, well we go to see yeah,

Speaker 5: So Brown Sugar Baby black owned company, in based out
Speaker 5: of Atlanta, and they've been really growing.
Speaker 2: They've been really there. I was one of the.
Speaker 5: First influencers with them, did a YouTube video many many
Speaker 5: years ago, and now they're hit about to hit a
Speaker 5: ten million dollar a year. I love it after five
Speaker 5: years of business, So congratulations to them. I see you
Speaker 5: supporting all of these black owned brands and small businesses too.
Speaker 3: I saw you do a pop up recently.
Speaker 2: Yes, at the Sister Shop. I love the Sister Shop.
Speaker 5: So the Sister Shop is based in Atlantic Station in
Speaker 5: Atlanta and it is home to over one hundred plus
Speaker 5: black and female owned businesses. So check them out. They
Speaker 5: have a website as well. But I just did a
Speaker 5: pop up shop and meet up greet there my boutique shop.
Speaker 5: No money was we were vending there as well as
Speaker 5: meeting up with some customers, and I had a closet
Speaker 5: seal at the same time.
Speaker 2: We were getting it all done in there. So tell
Speaker 2: me about your brand because I know that you're also
Speaker 2: into fashion. Look at you today looking offline. Thank you,
Speaker 2: thank you. Yes.
Speaker 5: So many years ago I started being as an influencer
Speaker 5: and then I was given the opportunity to design some
Speaker 5: clothes for those brands that I was influencing and it
Speaker 5: was a hit. And then it made me realize, like,
Speaker 5: I want to do this and I want to be
Speaker 5: a design clothes that reflect me, have the colors to
Speaker 5: pop and everything that I like. And so Shapnamani was born,
Speaker 5: and we're working to the point where we can make
Speaker 5: sure that those factories because it's hard out here getting
Speaker 5: these factories to make clothes for plus sized people. As
Speaker 5: you can see, there's a decline some stores that used
Speaker 5: to be really big and have plus size clothes. They're
Speaker 5: decreasing consistently, or the visibility or the styles, everything is
Speaker 5: a lot harder to come by. So wanting to be
Speaker 5: a voice in the industry as.
Speaker 2: Well, I love that. Thank you all right. Now, you
Speaker 2: know we got to talk about this new season of
Speaker 2: as a team. Since we have you out here. Now, Angela,
Speaker 2: some people think that you're not a good friend. There's
Speaker 2: a scene where you actually and I saw this going
Speaker 2: viral when you were saying to Fatima to keep her
Speaker 2: options open and she's like, I am engaged. Okay, okay.
Speaker 2: So now, for some reason, at a certain point, you
Speaker 2: were really holding Zach a canibal because he's got a
Speaker 2: lot going on. Yes, he's got a kid that he's
Speaker 2: you know, got to do it that he had to
Speaker 2: kidnap back.
Speaker 5: He was in Ja, he was running from the fits.
Speaker 5: I'm telling the baby on the way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot. And I also feel like, now
Speaker 2: correct me if I'm wrong, But with Zach, he was
Speaker 2: doing like some insider trading in a way.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure that out.
Speaker 2: Whether he is guilty or not.
Speaker 5: It's not well exactly, yeah, I mean he might have
Speaker 5: been a little guilty. So definitely that's something you want
Speaker 5: to watch out for because you don't want to be
Speaker 5: with a man who then gets right. And then I
Speaker 5: think for Angela, she sees her friend in such a
Speaker 5: positive light, like, girl, you're about to be a lawyer,
Speaker 5: you know, I feel like she sees her and it's
Speaker 5: like you can do better than this. And although you're engaged,
Speaker 5: baby girl, it's been a few months. It's not like
Speaker 5: you have deep ties with this man. So keep your
Speaker 5: options open. And I stand by that, y'all. I mean it.
Speaker 3: I need an Angela in our life.
Speaker 2: Yes you do.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, thank you so much.
Speaker 2: And earlier you heard us talking about Angela's relationship on
Speaker 2: the show with Bryce, and we'll see what's gonna happen
Speaker 2: with this new season because you have your options open. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: Angela got for sure. All right, Well, listen when we
Speaker 2: come back, ask ye I'm here and Zinging he's here
Speaker 2: with us, and we're gonna give you some advice. Any
Speaker 2: question you have. We want to help you out. Eight
Speaker 2: hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty Okay.
Speaker 4: Everybody with its relationship with Koreer advice.
Speaker 7: Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 2: This is what's up his way up at Angela. Yee,
Speaker 2: I'm here at my guest host and singer. You money,
Speaker 2: and it's time for you guys to ask any question
Speaker 2: that you have. Now we have Henry on the line.
Speaker 2: What's that Henry?
Speaker 3: Hey, how you doing ladies, I'm good, We're good. Hey,
Speaker 3: what's your question?
Speaker 8: So I just want to kind of ask you your
Speaker 8: opinion on a situation that happened to me yesterday.
Speaker 7: So I lived in New York City, okay.
Speaker 8: And I was heading home, going to the subway, and
Speaker 8: a homeless guy approached me and asked me to purchase
Speaker 8: him water, Okay, two bottles of water. So he handed
Speaker 8: me two dollars, and long story short, the guy was
Speaker 8: selling the water, the homeless guy assaulted him. He punched
Speaker 8: him in the nose, and the guy banned him from
Speaker 8: selling him water. So he decided to ask me to
Speaker 8: go purchase the water. But once I found that out,
Speaker 8: I in return give the dude the two dollars that
Speaker 8: the homeless god give to me, and then I walked away.
Speaker 8: So I let the guy. He kept the two dollars.
Speaker 8: So I told my friend group, and everybody's judging me.
Speaker 8: They're saying I'm wrong. So I just wanted to hear
Speaker 8: I guess another opinion, just to see how do you
Speaker 8: think I handled that situation.
Speaker 2: I think you did wrong.
Speaker 5: You could have just returned the money, and you decided
Speaker 5: to take that business owner's word over that gentleman's word
Speaker 5: based off of I'm assuming the fact that he's homeless
Speaker 5: and homeless people.
Speaker 8: He told me, he told me, oh, he told.
Speaker 3: Him that he was banned.
Speaker 8: He had blood on his hands, and the guy was bleeding.
Speaker 8: His nose was bleeding.
Speaker 2: Oh, he had just told me he was.
Speaker 8: Like, I punched him because he didn't want to tell
Speaker 8: me water. That's what the homeless guy's.
Speaker 2: Doing, Okay, And so why did you take the money
Speaker 2: at all?
Speaker 8: Boy? Because I think you gotta pay for your crime.
Speaker 8: Why did you hit an innocent person?
Speaker 2: I don't feel like you knew. I don't know the information. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I can make that. I know that that was your
Speaker 2: responsibility to do that. Somebody's in house. We don't know
Speaker 2: what his situation is mentally, yeah, or what's going on
Speaker 2: with him, or how that business owner treated that person
Speaker 2: to lead to them getting assaulted. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: factors here, but you chose to involve yourself. So I mean,
Speaker 2: for me, I will say you're wrong, damn.
Speaker 3: But what can you do about it? Now?
Speaker 2: Go give that man back in suit dollars.
Speaker 3: He's gonna punch you in your face.
Speaker 8: But I just wanted to hear other opinions.
Speaker 3: I mean, like everybody's not perfect and we make mistakes.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I guess that's the more of the story, right.
Speaker 3: And the more of the story is do better.
Speaker 8: Yes, the guy assaulted an innocent guy, and I know
Speaker 8: what that means.
Speaker 2: Well, you didn't did you see it happen?
Speaker 8: No, but the man knows he's bleeding.
Speaker 2: Okay, there's lots of ways that can happen. Well, listen,
Speaker 2: I just want to in a situation like that though,
Speaker 2: because you don't know the full story. A lot of
Speaker 2: times people do rest to judgment on things, and we
Speaker 2: have that issue all the time in this country. So
Speaker 2: I just think the best thing to doing is it
Speaker 2: because you didn't see it, you weren't part of it.
Speaker 3: It's don't involve yourself in it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean that's true, but I think it's a
Speaker 8: little different because he confessed it. He came up to
Speaker 8: me and said he touched in the said did punch
Speaker 8: him water? And he said, can you go over there
Speaker 8: and get it for me?
Speaker 5: I think water should be a basic human right too, though,
Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's water, So this man could have
Speaker 5: been in need, and you know, we don't know how
Speaker 5: the business owner responded to him, and.
Speaker 3: He was paying for the water, wasn't trying to steal it.
Speaker 8: So that's true too. But the business owner also had
Speaker 8: his daughter with him, so I feel like a lot
Speaker 8: of the it's just a lot of.
Speaker 2: Okay, So you're with the business owner basically, is what
Speaker 2: you're saying. You were riding with him, and y'all ganged
Speaker 2: up on this homeless man. Man, No, I don't know.
Speaker 8: It was so bad.
Speaker 7: Thank you.
Speaker 8: I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Okay, All right, listen, let's all have some empathy for
Speaker 2: each other.
Speaker 3: But I get it. He saw a man bleeding. The
Speaker 3: guy confessed that he did do that.
Speaker 2: Maybe I would have took the two dollars, gave him
Speaker 2: the money and then also still gave him the water
Speaker 2: and been like, you know, in the future, it's not reacting.
Speaker 2: Let's not resort to that. All right, Well that was
Speaker 2: ask ye eight fifty one fifty. If you couldn't get through,
Speaker 2: you can still leave a message. And when we come back.
Speaker 3: This is exciting. Don Chetle is going to be joining us.
Speaker 2: Fight Night is out right now on Peacock and this
Speaker 2: is my first time sitting down with this legend.
Speaker 3: It's way up.
Speaker 10: Do you want to know my name?
Speaker 7: Way up with Angela ye turn me on?
Speaker 2: What's up? His way up with Angela Yee? I'm Angela
Speaker 2: Yee beat I is guest hosting with me. You know what?
Speaker 3: He usually leaves before the interview. But don Cheetle's here.
Speaker 2: But when I tell you, this whole entire floor is
Speaker 2: so excited and so am I.
Speaker 16: Oh prepared to be very disappointed.
Speaker 2: Now, well, listen. I did have a chance to watch
Speaker 2: the first five episodes. Oh cool a fight night. Fascinating story.
Speaker 15: Yeah, really interesting story about Muhammad Ali's first comeback after
Speaker 15: he was a conscience just objector to the war. And
Speaker 15: it's nineteen seventy, so he's been out a fight game
Speaker 15: for three years and the senator in Atlanta was able
Speaker 15: to find a loophole in the law and get him
Speaker 15: a fight in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had stripped him up his license, so he
Speaker 2: really couldn't fight anywhere exactly. But watching this, I didn't
Speaker 2: even realize how black people weren't supportive of Muhammad Ali
Speaker 2: during that time.
Speaker 16: Absolutely, talk about the role you're playing in this film.
Speaker 2: One of the first black detectives or the first black
Speaker 2: detective in Atlanta.
Speaker 15: I think one of the first Black Detectives is probably true.
Speaker 11: J D.
Speaker 16: Hudson that I play is from a different era. You know,
Speaker 16: he's a throwback. How'd you prepare for it? Cracks?
Speaker 1: Just hell.
Speaker 15: I mean you can go through to do acting exercises
Speaker 15: and research and all that, but if you really want
Speaker 15: to break some stuff open, you gotta get crazy. No,
Speaker 15: you know, there's a lot of research about this guy.
Speaker 15: His descendants still around, you know. So, And we also
Speaker 15: had this podcast to go off of that. Ye was
Speaker 15: I heart Yeah, it was really It's really a great one.
Speaker 15: You also love an accent man Sometimes sometimes I hate.
Speaker 16: It as emotions and perfect accent, I don't know about perfect.
Speaker 16: Thank you for saying that.
Speaker 15: Yeah, it's always challenging. Some people can do it very easily.
Speaker 15: Some people have a real facility for it. It's not
Speaker 15: easy for me. And it's something that you know what,
Speaker 15: when you're in your trailer going over words and people
Speaker 15: are outside clowning around, you're like, dang, I have to
Speaker 15: do this?
Speaker 16: Why I just do it as me?
Speaker 3: Right now?
Speaker 2: Beata is here with me and we are talking to
Speaker 2: the legend don Cheetle so Olcespoorteen is happening. It feels like,
Speaker 2: I mean, I mind hearing conversations about it and nobody
Speaker 2: call me, did they not? Though that's impossible, is it.
Speaker 15: I'm just saying that we've seen everything happen. Okay, I
Speaker 15: imagine if it's happening, they're going to call me for sure,
Speaker 15: But I don't. I don't know that it's happening. I
Speaker 15: just think it's been a lot of talk.
Speaker 2: So yeah, a lot of talk about the script is
Speaker 2: ready and they've been working on it.
Speaker 3: And but you like it though, right, you would? You
Speaker 3: would be willing, So yes.
Speaker 15: I mean, I mean it would depend you know what
Speaker 15: I mean? Like I almost wasn't in the second one.
Speaker 15: What interesting story. The timing of it on paper at
Speaker 15: the time is going to be a direct conflict with
Speaker 15: Hotel Rwanda.
Speaker 3: Oh, Hotel Rowanda's classic, and.
Speaker 15: I was like, there's no way I'm going to do
Speaker 15: Oceans twelve over Hotel over Hotel Rwanda, So I'm sorry.
Speaker 15: And then Brad playing the character Achilles in the movie
Speaker 15: that he did tore his Achilles and it pushed the
Speaker 15: movie eight weeks, which was the window that I was
Speaker 15: able to through Oceans Too Crazy?
Speaker 2: Is that all the times that you probably have roles
Speaker 2: that you really wanted to do, but timing wise, you couldn't.
Speaker 2: You know, that has to hurt sometimes when you're like, man,
Speaker 2: I want to do it, but I.
Speaker 15: Mean, I'm going to say, honestly, I'm sure that happens.
Speaker 15: But I've rarely been in that situation. I've been very
Speaker 15: fortunate and blessed in every word you want to use
Speaker 15: to have the opportunity to do most of the things
Speaker 15: that I've I've wanted to do.
Speaker 2: Don Cheatle is here. We're talking about the series Fight
Speaker 2: Night that's on Peacock right now. You guys love It
Speaker 2: is based on a true story. We have more when
Speaker 2: we come back. It's way up with Angela Yee. Turn

Speaker 2: legend Kevin Hart, really Kevin Heart. He did an amazing
Speaker 2: job here. I do want to say that. Oh that's sure, dude,
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, sure, he is short, Yeah, but he did
Speaker 2: an amazing job.

Speaker 2: You can't even imagine what this was like with you
Speaker 2: guys on camera together.
Speaker 16: It was every day, every day, every day.
Speaker 2: Lori Harvey's in the series as well. How was it
Speaker 2: for you, like as far as having people around you,
Speaker 2: because it's all different levels of acting, you know, around you.
Speaker 2: Like you said, you do come from theater, so does
Speaker 2: Samuel L. Jackson. But then you have you know, people
Speaker 2: like Chloe Bailey who's newer at it, Lori Harvy Lovely. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so how is that like on Seid are you giving
Speaker 2: advice to the yo? No, because you're also a director,
Speaker 2: so that could be something really helpful to have you
Speaker 2: like in second job.
Speaker 15: I mean, I've worn every hat, you know, if you
Speaker 15: have the ability to see around the corner and understand that,
Speaker 15: oh this is something that would be helped if we
Speaker 15: did this or that or move this this way, you know.
Speaker 15: And then you know, you mentioned sam again, dude's steeped
Speaker 15: in the game, and Taraji too, Terrence too. I mean
Speaker 15: they all have a lot of years, right you know,
Speaker 15: So there's a lot of years and when we're all
Speaker 15: pulling in the same direction and trying to accomplish the
Speaker 15: same things, then it's helpful.
Speaker 2: Right now, beat at is here with me and we
