Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club Morning Morning everybody is dj Envy angela Ye,
Speaker 1: Charlemagne the God. We are the breakfast Club. Let's getting
Speaker 1: some front page news start an NBA. Lebron might have
Speaker 1: a problem. Celtics beat the Cavaliers last night one oh
Speaker 1: seven ninety forty leads the series two oh and Lebron
Speaker 1: had a triple double forty five points I think ten rebounds,
Speaker 1: ten assists and they lost. Well, Celtics are a great team,
Speaker 1: Q are a team t e a m Okay more
Speaker 1: than one player contributing to the success of the Boston Celtics,
Speaker 1: and they are going to be a beast in the future.
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irvin still coming back next year at Gordon Haywood.
Speaker 1: And they got a lottery pick. Boston drop on a
Speaker 1: clues bond for them and not even like the Celtics
Speaker 1: and the Phoenix Suns got the first pick in the
Speaker 1: n NBA draft. Now, let's talk the most fit city,
Speaker 1: all right, Well, they actually did this study, the twenty
Speaker 1: eighteen American Fitness Index, the eleventh year they've done that.
Speaker 1: They ranked the one hundred largest cities in the nation.
Speaker 1: That's based on population data that includes information about mental health,
Speaker 1: about nutrition, smoking, chronic diseases, and overall fitness. They also
Speaker 1: took into consideration the number of parks and the residents
Speaker 1: access to public transportation. And who do you think was
Speaker 1: number one as far as the fittest city in America?
Speaker 1: I said, some way in California, but you said no,
Speaker 1: So who Arlington, Virginia in Virginia, really, yes, was number one.
Speaker 1: Chick fil as and waffle houses and all kind of
Speaker 1: stuff of Virginia. Well, they have the lowest smoking rate,
Speaker 1: the highest reports of very good or excellent health compared
Speaker 1: to the other communities in the index, and they both
Speaker 1: have a balance of both healthy behaviors and community infrastructure.
Speaker 1: So that's why they are number one. I wonder how
Speaker 1: are you ranking that? Are you ranking that? Open? Hey?
Speaker 1: You said just healthy behavior? Well, it's about mental health, nutrition, smoking,
Speaker 1: chronic diseases, and overall fitness. In how many people they pulled?
Speaker 1: So actually California. The highest one from California. San Jose
Speaker 1: was number nine on the list. It was New York.
Speaker 1: New York was number I think it was fifty two.
Speaker 1: Scroll all the way down. Yeah, New York is number
Speaker 1: fifty two. Put New York and Rice throw them New
Speaker 1: York all the way away and LA was number fifty,
Speaker 1: but the first three were Arlington, Virginia, then Minneapolis, and
Speaker 1: then Washington, DC rounded out the top three. Day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what else you talking about? Now? Let's talk about Facebook.
Speaker 1: They are saying that they took down twenty one million
Speaker 1: pieces of adult nudity in the first three months of
Speaker 1: this year. So they have six categories where they really
Speaker 1: enforced their efforts to remove things that violate their standards.
Speaker 1: That's graphic violence, adult nudity, sexual activity, terrorists, propaganda, hate speech, spam,
Speaker 1: and fake accounts. So what are people doing on Facebook?
Speaker 1: Facebook sounds born very boring though, well, because of all
Speaker 1: that that being removed. If you're on Facebook, sometimes they
Speaker 1: send you these things like this woman wants to talk
Speaker 1: to you or call me, and then they actually spam
Speaker 1: your account with those. So a lot of what they
Speaker 1: did was then removing these spam and fake accounts that
Speaker 1: were promoting nudity and sexual content. That's about ninety six
Speaker 1: percent of those things that were removed, But it only
Speaker 1: took down about two point five million pieces of hate
Speaker 1: speech during that period, and only thirty eight percent of
Speaker 1: that was flagged by its algorithms. So they said their
Speaker 1: technology still doesn't work that well, and they need to
Speaker 1: check that by their review teams for hate speech. I
Speaker 1: on Instagram to remove this young lady who keeps hitting
Speaker 1: me talking about she got her herpes removed with herbals.
Speaker 1: I keep getting that too, and my dumbass reads it
Speaker 1: every every time, and you're like, oh yeah, because it's
Speaker 1: written like a real message. So I'm like, why I

Speaker 1: in seven seconds. Why what was the reason they give

Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. He's
Speaker 1: the Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy.
Speaker 1: We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors.
Speaker 1: It's so Bill Cosby. It's about report. Is the rumor
Speaker 1: report Angela the Breakfast Club. So just updating you on
Speaker 1: the outcome of Bill Cosby's conviction. He was convicted of
Speaker 1: sexual assault and he will be sentenced on September twenty fourth.
Speaker 1: Damn already September twenty four, three months quicker than that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: usually it is. Doesn't seem close. But he had asked
Speaker 1: me to get sentencing delayed until the end of the year,
Speaker 1: but they decided September twenty fourth. Now, his convictions on
Speaker 1: three counts of aggravated in decent assault, they said, will
Speaker 1: likely be combined into one charge, and that standard sentence
Speaker 1: will be five to ten years in prison. I don't
Speaker 1: see it happening. I think Bill gonna die before then. Honestly,
Speaker 1: he's gonna be eighty one. He's turning eighty one in July. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Bill gonna ask the grim Reaping for the
Speaker 1: check way before September, canny appeal after that, so he
Speaker 1: can appeal and then be on house arrest again and
Speaker 1: it'll take a guess another year or so. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: sure he can, all right, well, he lived about four
Speaker 1: years too long. Man. In the meantime, he doesn't GPS
Speaker 1: monitoring bracelet, and he needs permission to leave the house.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, he's not going lay. And even when
Speaker 1: he does leave the house, he's only allowed to go
Speaker 1: visit his lawyers or his doctor. So there you have it.
Speaker 1: That's your update on Bill Cosby, Ray Sherman, and West
Speaker 1: Khalifa have announced a tour together. They're doing a co
Speaker 1: headlining tour, the Dazed and Blazed Summer twenty eighteen. So
Speaker 1: that starts to Lie twenty first in Detroit and it's
Speaker 1: going to wrap up August thirtieth in Phoenix. That sounds
Speaker 1: like a foreign tour. Yeah, Dazed and Blazed. Yes, at
Speaker 1: least fifteen felonies too high, they'll be too high. They're
Speaker 1: gonn arrested definitely for weed in some places where you
Speaker 1: can't smoke at some points. All right, Ryan Seacrest, there
Speaker 1: was an uncomfortable moment. Now he was hosting American Idol
Speaker 1: and he was having a conversation with Katy Perry, and
Speaker 1: it looks like they did not realize that the show
Speaker 1: was back live. And here is what their conversation was
Speaker 1: sounding like. As Ryan Seacrest talked to Katy Perry in
Speaker 1: front of the other judges, lying on Richie and Luke Bryan,
Speaker 1: the mom's pretty, well, I hope the apple doesn't fall
Speaker 1: far from the trade. You are but you're not yea,
Speaker 1: not yet. We want to talk about what I think?
Speaker 1: We're back? Is it real? This is it? Are we professional?
Speaker 1: What am I missing? On dock and make out? Was
Speaker 1: your mom's pretty? Said? The apple doesn't fall far from
Speaker 1: and then and then he says, you're not a mom
Speaker 1: and she said not yet, and he said, do you
Speaker 1: want to talk about it? So that was the conversation.
Speaker 1: So what's the problem. It's flirting? Yeah, it was. I
Speaker 1: mean the problem was that it looked like they didn't
Speaker 1: know they were back on the air. They were having
Speaker 1: this conversation and they were saying it was very uncomfortable
Speaker 1: and awkward. But it doesn't like she was joking right
Speaker 1: back along. The only thing that was an awkward was
Speaker 1: that they didn't know they were back on the air
Speaker 1: and they were having this comment kind of mumbling, we're bad.
Speaker 1: Does he have a go friend? I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't think y'all not used to hearing Ryan Seacrest talk
Speaker 1: to a woman. That's what I think. Shut up, I'm serious,
Speaker 1: because you always just have like this blank slate when
Speaker 1: it comes to sexuality. I'm serious, That's what I think
Speaker 1: it is. He's always seen around with women. I don't
Speaker 1: ever seen with women. So I just think that y'all
Speaker 1: aren't used to seeing Ryan talk like that. We're also
Speaker 1: not used to any type of error as far as
Speaker 1: not knowing the cameras or back rolling and you're having
Speaker 1: this mumbling conversation not realizing your back live. But he's
Speaker 1: so professional all the time, That's what I'm saying. Ryan
Speaker 1: is always like so robotic and always in the whole smold.
Speaker 1: You always see him saying the right thing, doing the
Speaker 1: right thing on stage. That's a real moment from Ryan Seacrest.
Speaker 1: We're not used to hearing that. Also. I mean that
Speaker 1: could also be kind of a set up to make
Speaker 1: it seem like it's real because you've done TV a
Speaker 1: million in one time, Cholo, and you know when you're
Speaker 1: going back live. Yes, that's a fact that in that
Speaker 1: place also already we don't know right us, but an
Speaker 1: American idol, though, you're not gonna like joke around and
Speaker 1: pretend you don't know your back live and you realize
Speaker 1: we've heard presidents get caught out like that that, we've
Speaker 1: heard Jesse Jackson. You want to cut Barack Obama's balls off,
Speaker 1: and he didn't know that Michael's on. It happens, It
Speaker 1: happens all right. Now, Gilbert Arenas is saying that he
Speaker 1: wants his money. That's because he got a judgment against
Speaker 1: Laura Govan and still hasn't gotten paid one hundred and
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars for his emotional distress. It's been almost
Speaker 1: two years when a judge ruled that she had to
Speaker 1: pay him, and now he is saying, give me my cash.
Speaker 1: So he's trying to get that, and that's because he's
Speaker 1: saying that she spread a false rumor that he gave
Speaker 1: her an std S get your money, Gilbert dropping a
Speaker 1: close bumber, Gilbert Arenas, that's a petty negro right there, boy,
Speaker 1: God dang it, that's why you can't give petty people
Speaker 1: that much money. All right, how much one hundred and
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars pay up? And that's what matter of fact,
Speaker 1: all you're doing is giving me, giving me my money back,
Speaker 1: by the way, that's all you're technically doing giving me
Speaker 1: my money back. Oh you don't think she makes her
Speaker 1: own money. I'm sure she does, but I'm sure she
Speaker 1: makes a lot more from Gilbert arenas how much she
Speaker 1: get him off in child sport. I don't think she
Speaker 1: gets that much from him at all. Yeah, because she
Speaker 1: took her back to didn't he. I don't think she
Speaker 1: gets a lot of money from him. So one hundred
Speaker 1: and ten thousand dollars is still a lot of money. Well,
Speaker 1: I know, I know Gilbert has invested that kind of
Speaker 1: money in her over the years, So let me get
Speaker 1: that back, all right. Well, the money should be for
Speaker 1: the kids, though, because they do have a lot of
Speaker 1: kids together. Not if you lied to me and said
Speaker 1: I got an STD and this money for me, right,
Speaker 1: he's gonna give it back to the kids. It's gonna
Speaker 1: go to him, and he's gonna give it right back.
Speaker 1: Gets less than ten thousand dollars a month, seven thousand.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna kiss that, Hi, let me kiss it that.
Speaker 1: I think they have what four kids give me? Me? Man? Wow?
Speaker 1: All right, Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your
Speaker 1: rumor report. They have four kids together? Seven thousand and four, kids,
Speaker 1: Gilbert Arenas. Wow, all right, all right, well that's your
Speaker 1: rumor report. When we come back from Empire, Jesse Smollett
Speaker 1: will be joining us, so we'll kick it with him
Speaker 1: when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Lolgal
Speaker 1: Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the God.
Speaker 1: We all the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest
Speaker 1: in the building, our guy at tour, Jesse Smollett, not
Speaker 1: just an actor, actor, activists, singer. Thank you, and he's
Speaker 1: a sneaky donator because he donated to our Change for Change.
Speaker 1: It didn't even tell us it did it on the low.
Speaker 1: I was just real quiet, like it real quiet that
Speaker 1: we appreciate that. We just have to look up. He
Speaker 1: was like, is that how many are there? No, you
Speaker 1: came here with an that the way you're moving now,
Speaker 1: it looked like it was like it was like a
Speaker 1: crowd like ten people. I'm kettle, nice to me. Want
Speaker 1: you to start some TV show or something something like that,
Speaker 1: something like that or couple things. What's good, y'all and
Speaker 1: everything's good. I know it feels good for you though,
Speaker 1: because you have this tour, the album out. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: just got um. I just got back from Germany and France.
Speaker 1: Every single date has been sold out. So wow. We
Speaker 1: started Oakland May seventeen, going back home to the Bay
Speaker 1: Area and then New York and every everywhere, everywhere. Are
Speaker 1: you already thinking about life after Empire? Oh? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was thinking about life after Empire before Empire. I think
Speaker 1: also that once we got officially picked up for season five,
Speaker 1: it kind of hit me that I'm doing the right
Speaker 1: things to kind of lay lay the foundation for life
Speaker 1: after Empire, because it can't be. As we know, nothing
Speaker 1: can last forever, especially something like a TV show. What
Speaker 1: did you expect when you got the part an Empire? Like,
Speaker 1: did you expect it to go that long? Do you
Speaker 1: think it was one season? What were your expectation? Honestly,
Speaker 1: didn't know. I've been doing this since I was four
Speaker 1: years old. A brother got his sad card nineteen eighty seven,
Speaker 1: So I mean, I've been doing it for a minute.
Speaker 1: And sometimes you do things that are really successful that
Speaker 1: you didn't know it was going to be successful. And
Speaker 1: sometimes you do things that you're like, Yo, this's gonna
Speaker 1: be dope, and then just silence and no one cares
Speaker 1: about it. So you know as an artist, I don't
Speaker 1: feel like you really want to make the assumption that
Speaker 1: something's going to be successful. I knew there would be
Speaker 1: critically acclaimed, but I didn't really, Honest to god, I
Speaker 1: went into it just being like, I'm gonna get to
Speaker 1: work with these amazing people Terrence and Taragi and Lee Daniels,
Speaker 1: and for that, you know, it's gonna be all good.
Speaker 1: It's gonna do something from my career. I just didn't
Speaker 1: know what and how was it with season five because
Speaker 1: I'm sure everybody got an ego in some way shape before,
Speaker 1: because I mean, because everybody's grown, like in a big way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Um, season five. You know, we've been fighting
Speaker 1: for the show a lot. You know, we fight. We
Speaker 1: fight for storylines that we don't we fight against storylines
Speaker 1: that we don't believe in. We fight four storylines that
Speaker 1: we do believe in. Lie says that he's officially woke
Speaker 1: up and he's coming home to like bring it, bring
Speaker 1: it to what it needs to be. So season five
Speaker 1: is supposed to be I just got off the phone
Speaker 1: with him when I was heading here, So, um, you
Speaker 1: know we'll see Season five is supposed to be real dope.
Speaker 1: So yeah, they've been hands on. Are you gonna be
Speaker 1: directing more on? Yeah, I officially got the word. I'm
Speaker 1: definitely gonna be directing. Give me that bad torect some money.
Speaker 1: Why you said you wanted to be? Did I read
Speaker 1: that correctly? Said you wanted to be the Black Barberscris
Speaker 1: the well mail? Also, Yeah, Um, I just mean, I
Speaker 1: just mean by that. It's funny because I was just
Speaker 1: saying yesterday, I was like, I'm not gonna say that
Speaker 1: no more because it's not about being like a black
Speaker 1: version of anybody. I just respect her as far as
Speaker 1: all that she's done, and she's done it well. You know,
Speaker 1: I want to direct and music and acting and writing
Speaker 1: and things like that and still holding onto my voice
Speaker 1: as an activist. She's been able to do that and
Speaker 1: do it well. So yeah, for sure. So let's talk
Speaker 1: a little bit about the music, because I've been wondering
Speaker 1: when it's Jesse gonna put out a full album. And
Speaker 1: I'm sure there had to be some restraints on you
Speaker 1: being on a show like Empire, because I know there's
Speaker 1: all kinds of deals you have music that you do
Speaker 1: for the show. You guys had albums for Empire, But
Speaker 1: did that restrict you from doing your own music? Oh?
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, period of time. Hell yeah. And this is
Speaker 1: the thing, like I was making music before Empire and
Speaker 1: releasing it and I say this before with it with
Speaker 1: Triple Plastic. But whatever, it's still it's still. It was
Speaker 1: out there. It was mine, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So I know how to do that with no budget
Speaker 1: at all. Now, thanks to my job at Empire, I
Speaker 1: got a little bit of a budget that I can do.
Speaker 1: But it's still you know. So it's okay to be
Speaker 1: Indie and it works for me because I feel like
Speaker 1: that's the type of artist that I have to be.
Speaker 1: I'm impatient and I don't do well with red tape.
Speaker 1: I was. I was signed to Columbia and then I
Speaker 1: asked I asked Fox to take my contract back. And
Speaker 1: there's no hard feelings just this. It was bullshit. It wasn't.
Speaker 1: It wasn't for me. I don't want to do this
Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, Fox owned the contract,
Speaker 1: so they were able to take it back. Um. And
Speaker 1: I just cut a thing straight with them, my own
Speaker 1: my master's one hundred percent um. And for me, it
Speaker 1: was just a thing of being in a room and
Speaker 1: I said this so many times at this point. It's
Speaker 1: something about being in a room with like old, straight
Speaker 1: white men and they're telling you what piece of your
Speaker 1: art that you created should be heard by the people
Speaker 1: it was created for. And it's like, to me, that
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense, and it never did, never will
Speaker 1: you know, there are no Barry Gordy's anymore, There are
Speaker 1: no I mean, puff is still you know, doing a
Speaker 1: single such a mode as you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: But it's not. It's a bunch of suits sitting in
Speaker 1: a room. And then the people that are A and
Speaker 1: R like my A and R. Dude, Sean Holliday, he's
Speaker 1: dope as hell, He's dope as hell. But still the
Speaker 1: people that were making the final decisions, it wasn't It
Speaker 1: wasn't for me. You couldn't make the decision on what
Speaker 1: single you wanted to put out. No, I couldn't make
Speaker 1: the decision over whether I was going to put out
Speaker 1: a single. So it was it was just a thing
Speaker 1: of I felt like with every single, with every successive Empire,
Speaker 1: as well as with every failure of Empire. Somehow my
Speaker 1: album took a hit and myself as an artist, took
Speaker 1: a hit and it just wasn't. It wasn't what music
Speaker 1: is supposed to be to me, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like record companies, that's cool, it works for people, good
Speaker 1: for them. But for me, it was just I'd rather
Speaker 1: take me longer. But it takes me longer than it
Speaker 1: takes you know, I'm listening to a bunch of people
Speaker 1: and it's still not gonna get released. They should allow
Speaker 1: you to release it during the show because it's gonna
Speaker 1: do nothing but big the show. Even more, they put
Speaker 1: their they put out their own stuff. They put out
Speaker 1: their own stuff, so it's like it's like who's gonna
Speaker 1: do it? Jesse or jamal Right, I'll always beat that
Speaker 1: have ahead of a record label. Would you rather be
Speaker 1: signing the Lucius of Cookie? Oh, that's a good question.
Speaker 1: I probably would be. Would rather be signed to Cookie
Speaker 1: because she because she's creative, but she's also she feels
Speaker 1: like it feels like she's not like my way is
Speaker 1: the only way. I feel like. I probably want to
Speaker 1: be signed to Cookie more. She's sweeter and she smells better.
Speaker 1: You know, did you and Michelle Obama pre playing that
Speaker 1: little dance session? Nah? That was all. That was all.
Speaker 1: I Wow, she's as cool as hell and she was
Speaker 1: just like she wrote with it, She's just cool. She's cool.
Speaker 1: She's like Auntie Auntie. I say, when white when the
Speaker 1: White House used to be Wakanda, it was everything, it
Speaker 1: was everything. She's just dope, like she don't care, she
Speaker 1: jams and she's she's just cool. It's real cool. You
Speaker 1: know you met her before having grown up and now
Speaker 1: seeing where you're at in life, are there people that
Speaker 1: you're amazed? Like I can't believe that I'm with Naomi
Speaker 1: Campbell walking the runaway for her. You know, like does
Speaker 1: it ever sometimes hit you like damn, this is crazy? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it still hits me. I hope that that never stops
Speaker 1: hitting me because it's exciting to me, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like this is my life, but you also
Speaker 1: can't take it too seriously. Growing up, all of my
Speaker 1: idols I somehow have some sort of connection. I mean,
Speaker 1: minus my idols that are no longer with us, but
Speaker 1: just like you know, getting to meet Buster Rhymes or
Speaker 1: or you know, hanging with Little Kim, that's being able
Speaker 1: to call like Brandy or Monica on the phone, Like
Speaker 1: that's dope as hell talking about Hello that just meant
Speaker 1: him at Puffs party and he was just cool as hell.
Speaker 1: He was like yo, man, yo yo, and he's just cool,
Speaker 1: yo cool, He's cool. He's cool. So just meeting all
Speaker 1: these people and seeing number one that they're normal people
Speaker 1: and also to me kind of checking like like Swizz
Speaker 1: and Alicia for instance, like they are just normal people.
Speaker 1: To me, it's cool to see that you don't have
Speaker 1: to be an asshole in order to be successful and
Speaker 1: have longevity. Somehow we have this idea that you know,
Speaker 1: to be strong, to be powerful, to be whatever, you
Speaker 1: have to be a jerk. And to see people that
Speaker 1: are actually, you know, pretty good people, it makes you
Speaker 1: feel better. That's kind of what I take away from it.
Speaker 1: So you got to meet the new artist to do
Speaker 1: an artists and the girls have been in the game
Speaker 1: a long time, they usually cool. Usually the people that
Speaker 1: have longevity, you look at someone like Forest Whitaker that
Speaker 1: came on the show, or Alfrey Woodard who have known
Speaker 1: since I was fifteen years old. They don't have to
Speaker 1: puff out their chests and prove anything because the proof
Speaker 1: is in the art. Angela Bassett, you look at her
Speaker 1: like I just saw her last night and she's just
Speaker 1: every time I see her, she's Auntie like, She's just
Speaker 1: so full of love. And it's those people that actually
Speaker 1: will have the careers forever and the careers forever with respect.
Speaker 1: We got more with Jesse Smellett. When we come back,
Speaker 1: don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast
Speaker 1: Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee Scharlamin the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the Breakfast Club from Empire. We have Jesse
Speaker 1: Smollett in the building. How do you go back and
Speaker 1: forth from Jamala Jesse? When you perform, do you or
Speaker 1: it's just you know my own I mean when I'm performing.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, it's people do soundtracks. Empire is a soundtrack.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I'm not comparing myself to
Speaker 1: Whitney Houston. But like she did The Bodyguard, she did
Speaker 1: Waiting to Text, Hell, she did The Preacher's Wife. If
Speaker 1: she sings those songs in concert, those are still Whitney
Speaker 1: Houston songs. True. So at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: if I'm singing good enough, no other man or woman
Speaker 1: has sung good enough. No one else has released that song.
Speaker 1: That's my song. So it's me playing Jamal when I'm
Speaker 1: in the show, but when I'm singing it, it's a
Speaker 1: JUSTI Smallette song. Because in the bathroom you're taking a piss.
Speaker 1: Somebody walked in and goes, Jamal, do you reply? Hell no,
Speaker 1: First of all, I'm not replying if you say if
Speaker 1: you're coming in the bathroom, and that has happened before,
Speaker 1: I'm not answering, like do not speak to me. You
Speaker 1: can speak to me, but don't, like, don't really speak
Speaker 1: to me in the bathroom. There's two places that I'm
Speaker 1: just like yo, Like I'm good. I love everybody. I
Speaker 1: never say no to a picture unless I'm with my
Speaker 1: niece or my nephew because then it's like I don't
Speaker 1: want them to be with one uncle And it's like,
Speaker 1: oh I get all my time when I'm with Uncle Jockey.
Speaker 1: But this is the norm for Uncle Jesse, Like I
Speaker 1: have to set some sort of you know, and people
Speaker 1: always understand that and if they don't, this is my
Speaker 1: niece and my nephew. I can't help that. I love you,
Speaker 1: but I can't help that, like no one is more
Speaker 1: important than them, um, but yeah, like, don't talk to
Speaker 1: me in the bathroom if we at the urinal and
Speaker 1: don't talk to me when I'm on the treadmill. One time,
Speaker 1: I literally was on the trademill at homeboy walked past
Speaker 1: me and he's like this with his phone and I'm
Speaker 1: just like and so I called him over. I was like,
Speaker 1: you know who I am? And he's like yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And I was like, then you know that I'm coolish.
Speaker 1: You could have just walked up and like just asked
Speaker 1: what you want the till you can't even talk. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to contract that got my headphones on. This is
Speaker 1: hard enough. I don't want to be here. I want
Speaker 1: to be eating a donut and here you are. Let's
Speaker 1: let's take it out of the bathroom. You and wafflehouse,
Speaker 1: right and you. I won't be at a waffle Man.
Speaker 1: I won't be at I'm trying to ask you if
Speaker 1: do you respond to Jamal? You know, if someone comes up,
Speaker 1: if a fan comes up and they're like, I love you, Jamal,
Speaker 1: I'm that's not a big deal to me. I just
Speaker 1: feel like, Jesse, nice to meet you. But I'm not
Speaker 1: one of these people that's like my name, like it's
Speaker 1: what they know me as and it's about like yesterday
Speaker 1: I saw Mark Paul Gossler and I was like, yo,
Speaker 1: Zach Morris is here. This is what we know that
Speaker 1: as you know what I'm saying, it's it's and also
Speaker 1: these people it's it's love, like they're not disrespecting you.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Like, if I see mister T,
Speaker 1: that's mister T. That's always mister I don't even know
Speaker 1: it's a real nameless But why do you know Zach's
Speaker 1: real name? You know, he was on NYPD Blue and stuff,
Speaker 1: so I know who he is. But when I see him,
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know, that's Zach Morris. What can I do?
Speaker 1: I'm saying, So you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 1: You still consider yourself an activist to your core. Absolutely
Speaker 1: everything that I do. I can tell about your Wafflehouse response. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not everything that I do. You know, it's not all
Speaker 1: of this is not just for me and the proceeds
Speaker 1: from your album. You're even donating. Some of the proceeds
Speaker 1: of the tour are going to Black Ages Institute, Black
Speaker 1: AGEIDS and Flint Kids, and some stops are even going
Speaker 1: to HRC. So it's just about you know, I've been
Speaker 1: so blessed. I've been so blessed, and I just think that,
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't stop here and the work doesn't stop.
Speaker 1: If I'm only able to take care of myself and
Speaker 1: I'm only able to take care of like my blood relatives,
Speaker 1: then or what happens after, like what's my legacy something else?
Speaker 1: And I don't need to I don't need to get
Speaker 1: on Instagram or Twitter and announce every time that. That's
Speaker 1: why I will do it silently because it's not. It's
Speaker 1: not something that's done for show. Is something that's done
Speaker 1: because it comes from my heart. And I really genuinely
Speaker 1: mean that, Like I can't just sit by and watch
Speaker 1: bulls happen and not do something, especially with the platform.
Speaker 1: I've been given a very specific platform to represent a
Speaker 1: lot of different groups of people that I represent in
Speaker 1: real life. So for that, I'm not trying to take
Speaker 1: that for granted or take that lightly and just be like, well,
Speaker 1: I got a nice car, I got my mama house.
Speaker 1: Who gives about you? That's not the way that the world.
Speaker 1: My mother, my mother, like we grew up with Angela Davis.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. My mother that was one
Speaker 1: of her friends and mentors. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Growing up when she was in the Bay Area, she
Speaker 1: marched with Bobby Seals, she marched with Huughey Newton. That's
Speaker 1: who she is, who she was, who she is, and
Speaker 1: I lead with my blackness, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And for that, I can't sit by and watch what's
Speaker 1: happening that hasn't just suddenly half started happening. It's been
Speaker 1: happening and just act like everything is fine because I'm
Speaker 1: on a Fox show. How did you get into acting? Like,
Speaker 1: what was the first thing that got you? When you
Speaker 1: got a lot of brothers and sisters? So what made
Speaker 1: you say, all right, this is what I want to
Speaker 1: do and a talented family, thank you. When I was little,
Speaker 1: they used to ask me what I wanted to be,
Speaker 1: and I said, Kermit the Frog on Michael Jackson, Michael Michael, Yeah, Kermit,
Speaker 1: Because if Kermit was the Kermit like muppets take Manhattan,
Speaker 1: Kermit like he was the leader of his pack. He
Speaker 1: was nice, everybody liked him. He's sang, he danced, he
Speaker 1: had a heart. You know, he was sensitive. Um he
Speaker 1: SIPs tea. Um. You know, well now he does, you know,
Speaker 1: So it was just I just I love entertainers, and
Speaker 1: I love entertainment, you know, And I feel like I
Speaker 1: found out very early on that I could make people happy.
Speaker 1: I think it also came from like the attention that
Speaker 1: I would get as a kid when I would perform.
Speaker 1: But I also but I think that you kind of
Speaker 1: figure out what your gifts are when you're very young.
Speaker 1: You kind of know what your gifts are. And there's
Speaker 1: never been a time that I ever wanted to do
Speaker 1: anything else. There's never been a time. And I've worked
Speaker 1: every job you could imagine, um real jobs. I've been
Speaker 1: a waiter, I've been a clown at children's parties literally literally,
Speaker 1: and I used to write songs for these little kids.
Speaker 1: They would think that it was original and I was
Speaker 1: just switching them lit names and putting it in. But
Speaker 1: but I was. I worked in retail, I did. I
Speaker 1: worked at a nonprofit named Artist for New South Africa,
Speaker 1: where I raised money for children infected and affected by
Speaker 1: HIV eights in South Africa and in the States. I've
Speaker 1: just been working. There's I have not been unemployed since
Speaker 1: I was four years old, so it's like my whole
Speaker 1: thing was being It's fine to be a struggling artist.
Speaker 1: But I never wanted to be a broke ass artist
Speaker 1: that that couldn't take care of himself. And we just
Speaker 1: shown all the broke ass artists. Nah. I mean, here's
Speaker 1: the thing, don't get me wrong. I was broke as hell.
Speaker 1: Like that moment where you got to you got seventeen
Speaker 1: dollars in your account, you gotta find three to depositis
Speaker 1: so you could take a twenty out. I was there absolutely,
Speaker 1: Like this time five years ago, I was there, but
Speaker 1: I still was supporting myself. I never asked. I've never
Speaker 1: asked anybody for money. I borrowed. I think I borrowed
Speaker 1: sixty dollars from my older brother one time in my life,
Speaker 1: and I just there's nothing wrong with borrowing. There's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with having people be there for you, because I
Speaker 1: have an incredible support system. But it's about making sure
Speaker 1: that you're holding down your own life, and that's what
Speaker 1: I've always been taught to do. Give me that Kermit
Speaker 1: the Frog impersonation. I know you, come on, I know you,
Speaker 1: I know you got do a strong Michael impression. This
Speaker 1: is it, you, guys, this is it. I don't want
Speaker 1: to hear more about this Angela David's connection because somebody
Speaker 1: asked me yesterday it was like, who is somebody you
Speaker 1: really want to interview? And I said, Angela Davis and
Speaker 1: Judy Bloom. Oh so you actually used to kick it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean still to this day. Like she's just she's
Speaker 1: she's amazing, she's she's got such a heart, and she
Speaker 1: she's the epitome of people trying to take her down
Speaker 1: simply for speaking what is true, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like what Reagan did to her and the eight when
Speaker 1: he was governor of California in the seventies. It is
Speaker 1: just like we see all of that and it's just
Speaker 1: it's a cycle that feeds itself, and we're seeing it
Speaker 1: come back around. And she's still around, still talking, still speaking,
Speaker 1: still teaching. Yeah, well, I wonder why her presence is bigger,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's almost like the media
Speaker 1: stays away from her own purpose. But I think though
Speaker 1: that the media probably has always stayed away because she's
Speaker 1: a powerful voice. But we haven't stayed away from her.
Speaker 1: We know who she is, you know what. Sometimes this
Speaker 1: is my take on it. Sometimes we don't need all
Speaker 1: of our voices in the media. We need to be
Speaker 1: able to hear them underground. Sometimes sometimes we need to
Speaker 1: hear them speaking the truth so that people can't get
Speaker 1: to their words, you know what I'm saying, So that
Speaker 1: we know, we know how to tap into their words.
Speaker 1: But maybe they don't need it. They don't need that,
Speaker 1: They don't need our treasure all the time. All right,
Speaker 1: we got more with Jesse Smullett. When we come back,
Speaker 1: don't move. It's the breakfast Club, good morning putting. Everybody
Speaker 1: is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we all
Speaker 1: the breakfast club we have from Empire, Jesse Smollett in
Speaker 1: the building, Charlomagne. When Jennifer Lewis was saying, I was like,
Speaker 1: do you think that sometimes I love it too? You
Speaker 1: think sometimes we as black people tell our plans too
Speaker 1: much in public? Yes, that's what we thought. I mean.
Speaker 1: And it's a difficult thing. It's a difficult thing because
Speaker 1: you want to reach the masses you want to reach,
Speaker 1: You want to reach you know, our black and brown
Speaker 1: sisters and brothers like you want us all to be
Speaker 1: able to speak. But at the same time it is
Speaker 1: difficult because somehow what you say can be manipulated through
Speaker 1: the media many times and kind of water down. And
Speaker 1: you know, I've said so many things in interviews, and
Speaker 1: then I read the article and I'm like, so out
Speaker 1: of everything that I said. Y'all chose to make that
Speaker 1: the headline, and y'all chose to y'all chose to cut
Speaker 1: out that. A lot of the media would like to
Speaker 1: continue to talk about the fact that I'm gay versus
Speaker 1: talking about the fact that I'm black, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, because it's easier. It's a for them, certain
Speaker 1: especially for white media. It's nicer to talk about that
Speaker 1: versus talking about the fact that I'm gay, and I
Speaker 1: leave with my blackness. Y'all don't talk about that. You
Speaker 1: don't talk about that. Y'all just want to talk about
Speaker 1: what is safe because you've seen it on Empire. I
Speaker 1: like how you said you lead with your your your
Speaker 1: black because I always wonder about that, like which I
Speaker 1: don't which struggle is more important. I don't know. That's
Speaker 1: a good question. I don't know how to how to
Speaker 1: even answer that. I don't. I don't because not the
Speaker 1: one is more important. But at the same time, I
Speaker 1: guess it's maybe it's because you can hide the fact
Speaker 1: that you're exactly Maybe that's what it is. When you
Speaker 1: say blackness, you kind of ain't got no choge. I
Speaker 1: ain't got no choice, know what I'm saying. Like I've
Speaker 1: never been I've never been pulled over by a cop.
Speaker 1: I don't think because I'm gay, Now that would be
Speaker 1: a you know what I'm saying, we need to direct
Speaker 1: that filming. What did that even look like? And I
Speaker 1: don't want to minimize what it is to be like
Speaker 1: the struggle that that the LGBTQ community goes through, because
Speaker 1: I'm a part of that struggle of that community and proudly,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, But it is a thing
Speaker 1: of somehow on paper. And I've said this. I said this.
Speaker 1: I spoke at the GLAD Awards and people were looking
Speaker 1: at me like, please shut up, because I said, after
Speaker 1: marriage equality, after you know it got past it, you
Speaker 1: know everybody could get married. Damn Well, now on paper,
Speaker 1: white gay men are officially free on paper. What do
Speaker 1: you mean, white game in a free on paper? They
Speaker 1: are free as soon as they got the okay to
Speaker 1: get married on paper. Basically everything that they were wanting
Speaker 1: came true. But as a black gay man. You're still
Speaker 1: sitting out here like we're still being shot. I'm still black,
Speaker 1: Like we're still being killed, We're still having you know,
Speaker 1: we're still having this happen to us. So whether I
Speaker 1: am gay or not, I'm still a black man and
Speaker 1: that's happening. You know. One liberty off which is the
Speaker 1: marriage quality, which is so important, which is so important, Like,
Speaker 1: let's make that clear. That's so important. And I'm not again,
Speaker 1: I'm not minimizing the importance of that struggle, because again
Speaker 1: I'm a part of that struggle. But I'm a part
Speaker 1: of so many struggles. You know what I'm saying, It's
Speaker 1: not just one. What do you think the biggest impact
Speaker 1: your character, Jamal has had on the whole America and
Speaker 1: as far as the perception of the LGBT community, I
Speaker 1: would like to believe that it just gave a different voice.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, that it somewhat showed Because
Speaker 1: we're on television. It's not a movie, it's not a
Speaker 1: reality show. It's nothing like that. We're able to have
Speaker 1: more time, We're able to go deeper into a character's
Speaker 1: what a character goes through. You're able to you know,
Speaker 1: maybe learn and appreciate that actor who plays him. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and what I've gone through, and
Speaker 1: somehow it's I hate to say the word normalized, but
Speaker 1: somehow it's normalized. It's help it's helped normalize who we are.
Speaker 1: That it's not some like let's look at a monkey
Speaker 1: in the zoo type of thing. Let's look at the
Speaker 1: gays live their life, you know what I'm saying. You know, still,
Speaker 1: even five seasons later, we still always remember that first season,
Speaker 1: you know, when Lucius through Jamal and the garbage and
Speaker 1: all of that, that still is something that you know,
Speaker 1: and Lee Daniel talks about his own personal experiences just
Speaker 1: to help people. How can you do that to a child?
Speaker 1: And I think that the best way to get to
Speaker 1: someone is usually through their heart, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And that's the good thing. We could say what we want. Look,
Speaker 1: we know half a season two of Empire can sucked,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. We know that ship. He's like, wait,
Speaker 1: I was on season but as but at the same time,
Speaker 1: at the same he's like, wait then when the girl
Speaker 1: got killed at the end of the White Girl. That
Speaker 1: was a season that was the beginning of season three.
Speaker 1: Season three weeks back on the end of season two
Speaker 1: got really good. The first couple of episodes of season
Speaker 1: two we kind of started slipping. He started slipping um.
Speaker 1: But oh yeah. I think that the good thing about
Speaker 1: Empire's Empire is able to hold a mirror. Like we're
Speaker 1: not preaching or anything like that. It's not an after
Speaker 1: school special. We're holding a mirror up to people and
Speaker 1: we're saying, yo, just look at yourself, look at yourself.
Speaker 1: Are you lucious? Are you Cookie? Are you Jamal? You Andre?
Speaker 1: Or you? Who are you in this? Addressing mental illness? Absolutely,
Speaker 1: We've We've addressed mental illness. We've addressed homosexuality, we've addressed
Speaker 1: sexual fluidity, We've we've addressed you know, incarceration, mass incarceration,
Speaker 1: what incarceration does to a family. We've addressed all of
Speaker 1: these things. And I think that in many ways, because
Speaker 1: the Empire became such a huge phenomenon that somehow it
Speaker 1: waters down the message and somehow people forget all of
Speaker 1: the incredible messages that are in the show. And because
Speaker 1: it's so successful, you know, you always want to turn
Speaker 1: on something that is extremely successful. You want to be
Speaker 1: like Nah, man, I ain't down with that, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But it's you know, look deeper. You
Speaker 1: know what I want to ask. You know, how did
Speaker 1: your family deal with with when they found out that
Speaker 1: you were gay. I get a lot of emails all
Speaker 1: the time where it says, yeah, my son wants to
Speaker 1: play with a doll, I don't put the doll down,
Speaker 1: play with Gi Joels, you know, and all my technically
Speaker 1: gioels a dog. Yeah, but you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Bobby don't or you know, my son wants to wear
Speaker 1: addressed because he sees his mom wearing one, wants to
Speaker 1: win shoes, not to put it down thug wearing. But
Speaker 1: I think that we as a society, they'll put too
Speaker 1: much on sex. I mean, your son might be playing
Speaker 1: with a doll because he's going to grow up and
Speaker 1: be one of the most incredible designers on the face
Speaker 1: of the planet. That doesn't make him gay. Let him
Speaker 1: figure out his shupposed to be. And it's this, it's
Speaker 1: this toxic masculinity. That's why I love the movie Moonlight.
Speaker 1: It wasn't about sexuality. It was about masculinity and all
Speaker 1: of the rules that are put on boys from the
Speaker 1: second that they're born. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: men don't grow up wanting to be homophobic. We're taught
Speaker 1: somehow that homophobia is the way to prove that you're
Speaker 1: not that way, and in actuality, a true person that's
Speaker 1: truly secure as a man and truly secure in his sexuality,
Speaker 1: whatever that may be. It's too busy worrying about his
Speaker 1: own and worrying about who he's loving on to be
Speaker 1: worried about who I ain't. We just ain't. Never seen
Speaker 1: enough gay man whipping somebody ass. When you see a
Speaker 1: gay man whip somebody else, he shot that down his boyfriend.
Speaker 1: I mean, Jamal is the gay Tupac. But don't forget
Speaker 1: on the Michael Kay Williams character. Yeah, Yo, but let's
Speaker 1: not sleep on the wire. To me, the wire is
Speaker 1: what There would be no Jamal Lion if it was
Speaker 1: not for Michael Kay Williams and and the wire. They
Speaker 1: made it easier for us to get on network television.
Speaker 1: They were on cable. They made it easier and they
Speaker 1: softened the blow for us to be able to put someone.
Speaker 1: He just happened to It just happened to be that way,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't any It was what it was. It
Speaker 1: wasn't something that even needs to need it to be
Speaker 1: overly discussed. It was what it was, you know, the
Speaker 1: sole superior man. No should read it. It's a good
Speaker 1: and I think all guys should read it. But it
Speaker 1: just talks talks about tapping into your female divinity. I
Speaker 1: don't have no more female divinity than you do, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, exactly, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So it's about it's just about these roles.
Speaker 1: We've come up with all of these bullsh roles that
Speaker 1: don't really exist. We've literally there man made roles that
Speaker 1: do not exist. That's why it's always funny to me
Speaker 1: when people ask me, like, I'm like a relationship that
Speaker 1: I might be, and they'd be like, so, who's the man?
Speaker 1: Who's the woman? I'm like, this is the stupidest question
Speaker 1: I've ever heard. Who's the top of the bottom of
Speaker 1: my God, who's the top of the bottom in your relationship? Bottom?
Speaker 1: He's a verse bottom. Well, we appreciate you for joining us.
Speaker 1: Can you tell to Roger? We said congratulations, definitely. Will
Speaker 1: I just saw her last night yesterday, and the ring
Speaker 1: is beautiful. She's glowing. Man. It's just so nice too
Speaker 1: to see somebody that's able to hold her heart in
Speaker 1: the right way. We got to see. We appreciate you
Speaker 1: appreciate and you can come by anytime. Thank you, alright,
Speaker 1: Jesse smallt congratulation. Thank you. You don't have some of
Speaker 1: my music tour the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor
Speaker 1: Report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. So Angie
Speaker 1: Martinez has a full interview with Jay Coole that's about
Speaker 1: to drop, but in the meantime, she's given us some teasers,
Speaker 1: all right, And one thing that Jay Coole talked about
Speaker 1: was Kanye West. Now, he talked about the conversation that
Speaker 1: he had with Kanye, and here's what he said. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I talked to Yeah, did you not know that picture
Speaker 1: was going up? Of course not yeah, no, no where
Speaker 1: did you make the goal or he made the coal? No,
Speaker 1: he called me. But I would have never posted that
Speaker 1: or like tell him to post that, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't. That made me feel a certain
Speaker 1: type of way. I told him that he apologized for
Speaker 1: the Record's not like I'm just saying this right, but
Speaker 1: then I told him, like it felt like you felt
Speaker 1: like you just used my name in that very quick
Speaker 1: conversation for social media and for like to keep your
Speaker 1: thing going whatever you were doing, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: And like, you know, I just felt like it wasn't
Speaker 1: sincere because of that. Well I will I told y'all
Speaker 1: before that, Kanye says he feels like Jay Cole is
Speaker 1: always dissing him. Actually that they were having a conversation
Speaker 1: We got love and he posted that, Yeah, we actually
Speaker 1: had a conversation about Jay Cole in our interview. That
Speaker 1: was when he told me he feel like Jay Cole's
Speaker 1: always dissing him, But he took that part out. He
Speaker 1: had it to that really okay, okay, all right, And
Speaker 1: here is Jay Coole talking about more conversations with Kanye West.
Speaker 1: Here's what he said. I don't like talking about other people.
Speaker 1: I feel hesitant to make it a go in for
Speaker 1: the public. Yeah, so I tread lightly if possible. But
Speaker 1: the only reason I would even feel comfortable taking it
Speaker 1: any distance because like, yo, I didn't even ask you
Speaker 1: put that out there, and like you put me in this. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And when he called me, he said, y'all, he was like, man,
Speaker 1: I need you to hold me accountable, keep me in check,
Speaker 1: like say whatever you gotta say. I need that. I
Speaker 1: feed off that, Like are you sure you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Because like I see this a certain way.
Speaker 1: How does he feel uncomfortable talking about other people when
Speaker 1: he made nineteen eighty five and the other record talking
Speaker 1: about Walley and Kanye. I think he means on social
Speaker 1: media he doesn't want to go on social media and
Speaker 1: do things just for attention. It's how I took it.
Speaker 1: So it between making a record and talking about somebody
Speaker 1: and getting attention music his art. He also doesn't do
Speaker 1: a lot of interviews, and a lot of people will
Speaker 1: talk about their personal business in their music, but not
Speaker 1: necessarily tweet about it. Got You, like Jay Z does
Speaker 1: the same thing. He tells a lot of his stuff
Speaker 1: in his music, but he's not necessarily going to take
Speaker 1: it to social media and talk about private conversations, how
Speaker 1: he feels about people, his relationship and I feel like
Speaker 1: Jay Cole is kind of the same way. Got You.
Speaker 1: He expresses himself in that way. Now, another thing that
Speaker 1: he talked about was Cardi B. If you guys remember
Speaker 1: Carti B came on The Breakfast Club and she's about
Speaker 1: the pressure of releasing her debut album. Of course before
Speaker 1: it came out, youn't have this one record and the
Speaker 1: next summer you just out here again. You gotta have
Speaker 1: you gotta keep coming with him. No. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: the thing A lot of people keep telling me, like
Speaker 1: Dann why she only put she only performed that song, dude,
Speaker 1: she only got that one song out, And it's just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, I just put the song out like three
Speaker 1: months ago. Like can I just work the record like
Speaker 1: I got something? But it's like it gotta. Can I
Speaker 1: just put it out when this record just came out,
Speaker 1: I got something for you. I'm gonna drop something in
Speaker 1: October for just damn the album. Just do it the
Speaker 1: whole back. Yeah, just let it go, let it fly.
Speaker 1: What Jakole had this to say about Cardi B when
Speaker 1: you first got back on Twitter. One of the first
Speaker 1: things you did, like big up Cardi. I hope she
Speaker 1: received it right, But my point was like she did
Speaker 1: receive it right. I saw her repost it. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: talked to her in person too, But you know, I
Speaker 1: just feel like people give her so much advice. It
Speaker 1: it's like I didn't know if I was just another
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know her like that, so it's
Speaker 1: also like, yo, man, you don't know She also like,
Speaker 1: who are you to be giving me if But I
Speaker 1: saw an interview and I just seemed like, damn, they
Speaker 1: putting mad pressure on this girl to like try to
Speaker 1: beat herself like she had like the number one song
Speaker 1: in the country is the biggest song last year. And
Speaker 1: it's like people were like, well, what's next, what about
Speaker 1: the album? And it's like I noticed, like the being
Speaker 1: those shoes. I want to just say something that's like
Speaker 1: you already won. No, we weren't putting no pressure on that.
Speaker 1: We were just telling them put the album out. That
Speaker 1: was the whole point. Doesn't have any pressure, just dropped
Speaker 1: the album. Was he's saying, we will put pressure pressure.
Speaker 1: She felt pressure fans, he said the interview that's where
Speaker 1: she talked about it because he tweeted. The tweet was
Speaker 1: also Cardi B I've seen your Breakfast Club and if
Speaker 1: you loved it, don't put all that pressure on your album.
Speaker 1: You already won. Just dropping repeat. I think it's just
Speaker 1: me because no, I don't think you think. I don't
Speaker 1: think he meant the breakfast club. I think he met
Speaker 1: people that person because I felt the same way. I
Speaker 1: was just like your CARDI just dropped the album, like,
Speaker 1: don't worry about topping boat that yellow, just put the album.
Speaker 1: I put the music out now. Angie also asked, I'm
Speaker 1: about breaking all these records for streaming and Spotify and
Speaker 1: all of that, and actually breaking Drake's records. And here's
Speaker 1: what happened. Billboard Records, Spotify. You broke the Spotify record,
Speaker 1: sixty four point five million players on Apple Music, you
Speaker 1: beat Drake's views that held the record before that. Thirty
Speaker 1: six point six million players on Spotify. He beat out.
Speaker 1: I guess also Drake more more life. Do you hear
Speaker 1: from Drake when something like this happens. Yeah, he takes me.
Speaker 1: He says, I hate you him coming for you. I'm
Speaker 1: coming from my cray Just wait, na, no, no oh,
Speaker 1: stop all this beige on beige crime, all this by
Speaker 1: racial beef. First of all, let's be clear, the fight
Speaker 1: is fixed anyway, because the Drake album drop, he gonna
Speaker 1: shat all those records again, I believe, especially on Apple,
Speaker 1: you know that that fight is fixed. All right. All right, well,
Speaker 1: I manage Laye and that is your room of report.
Speaker 1: Shout out to Andrew Martine. I wouldn't say that fight
Speaker 1: is fixed. Drake puts out that type of great music
Speaker 1: music God plan was number one for seventeen weeks in
Speaker 1: a row. That's a great record. Yeah, and so once
Speaker 1: that gets if that's on the album, that's it's come on,
Speaker 1: you probably go ten to on flatting him in the
Speaker 1: first day. And then God's planning gods thrown by Nice exactly.
Speaker 1: God's plan was nice for what was up number one
Speaker 1: for how many weeks? Are those great records are not? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Great record? The fright still fixed? Well, Charlemagne, are you
Speaker 1: giving your donkey to oh? Am? I giving donkey to
Speaker 1: day Oh this young lady named Jacqueline. No, this is
Speaker 1: a good this is a good moment to teach. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about thirst. Summer is here, all right,
Speaker 1: so we need to talk about thirst. We need to
Speaker 1: talk about borderline dehydration. All right. Okay, we'll get into
Speaker 1: that when we come back. And then you can get
Speaker 1: on the phones right now for ask Ye eight hundred
Speaker 1: five eight five one on five one. If you need
Speaker 1: relationship advice, Ye's here for you. It's the breakfast Club
Speaker 1: God Morning. I was born to donkey. It's a donkey
Speaker 1: of the Death's Charmaine Devil Breakfast Club. Yeesh, donkey Today
Speaker 1: from wed to Day made sixteenth goes to a young
Speaker 1: woman from Arizona name Jacqueline Ideas. Okay, what stop talking
Speaker 1: over me, white man. She's thirty one years old and
Speaker 1: was arrested on suspicion of stalking and harassing a man
Speaker 1: she met online. Let me tell you something, man, we
Speaker 1: have all dealt with someone in our lives who just
Speaker 1: wasn't into us the way we were into them. Okay,
Speaker 1: it happens. But I was always taught to, you know,
Speaker 1: never make someone a priority if you only remain that option. Well,
Speaker 1: Jacqueline didn't get that memo at all. Okay. In fact,
Speaker 1: Jacqueline is a harsh reminded to tell us that there
Speaker 1: is levels to thirst. Okay, as humans, we all have
Speaker 1: a basic instinct when it comes to thirst, all right,
Speaker 1: and natural craving for fluids. But that's not the level
Speaker 1: of thirst I'm talking about. I'm talking continuous dehydration. I'm
Speaker 1: talking a deficit of total body water. I'm talking about
Speaker 1: the kind of dehydration that happens when free water lass
Speaker 1: exceeds free water intake. What are the causes of this
Speaker 1: kind of dehydration will Usually it's due to exercise, disease,
Speaker 1: high environmental temperatures, but most commonly caused by a new
Speaker 1: love interest. Okay, a new bay or the prospect of
Speaker 1: a new bay can make the most hydrated hydrated amongst
Speaker 1: us thirsty. All right, And Jacqueline is just another example
Speaker 1: of that. See Jacqueline met a man on a dating website.
Speaker 1: She said they went on a few dates and Jacqueline
Speaker 1: immediately felt like she had met her soul mate. Well,
Speaker 1: here's the thing about that whole soul mate thing. Both
Speaker 1: parties have to feel that way. Okay, if you feel
Speaker 1: like I'm your soul mate and I feel like you
Speaker 1: just some chick I'm smashing for the summer, the fastest
Speaker 1: way to make me moon walk out of this situation
Speaker 1: is to say to me, you're my soul mate. Do
Speaker 1: you realize you can scare a man away with that
Speaker 1: kind of talk too early? Go on a couple of
Speaker 1: dates with a woman, and you know, and then and
Speaker 1: then have that woman tell tell you you want to
Speaker 1: get married, all right? To tell tell that man you
Speaker 1: want to have his baby, right, tell him you feel
Speaker 1: like y'all a soul mate, and then watch that man
Speaker 1: quickly fade away like an avenger after thanking those kids
Speaker 1: all the infinity stones. Okay, well that's clearly what happened
Speaker 1: in this situation, but Jacqueline refused to fade to dust
Speaker 1: without a fight. Let's go to Aisy family dot com
Speaker 1: for the report. Place and threatening man she met online
Speaker 1: after they went on only one date. Poliche she blow
Speaker 1: up his phone was sixty five thousand text messages. Jacqueline
Speaker 1: Addis claims she went on three dates with a Paradise
Speaker 1: Valley man she met through an online dating service for
Speaker 1: millionaire matchmaking. Court records say Addis sent the victim sixty
Speaker 1: five thousand text messages, including threats to kill him where
Speaker 1: his body parts and bathe in his blood. Addis does
Speaker 1: not deny the volume of text messages she did, however,
Speaker 1: regret the nature of some of those messages. Addis said
Speaker 1: she never intended to hurt or scare the victim, and
Speaker 1: she doesn't blame him for her incarceration. Jacqueline Addis is
Speaker 1: being held in jail without bond sixty five thousand tatments
Speaker 1: crazy sixty five hi for that thousand. How do you
Speaker 1: even say, I don't even think I've sent that many
Speaker 1: text messages in my life. My man, I didn't block her,
Speaker 1: my man exactly, my man who was receiving those texts?
Speaker 1: At what point do you decide you may need to
Speaker 1: this number? Sixty five thousand texts? Bro crazy, I'm blocking
Speaker 1: your number if you talk spicy to me after three
Speaker 1: to four texts? All right, sixty five thousand, ladies, Please
Speaker 1: don't ever come across this part. All right, remember Law
Speaker 1: thirty six and to forty eight Laws of power to
Speaker 1: stain things you cannot have ignoring ignoring them as the
Speaker 1: best revenge. I get fly on his ass, all right.
Speaker 1: Just make sure you don't block him on social media
Speaker 1: so he can see you shining. Act like you're having
Speaker 1: a ball without him, and I guarantee he will hit
Speaker 1: you up. But whatever you do, don't sound like this. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is Jack Couelin add live from jail. Let's hear
Speaker 1: what she had to say. I felt like I meant
Speaker 1: my soulmate, and everything was just the way it was,
Speaker 1: and I thought we would just do what everybody else did,
Speaker 1: and we would just like get married and everything would
Speaker 1: be fine, but that's not what happens. I'm not angry
Speaker 1: with him, No, oh my god, No, I love him
Speaker 1: so much. I just want to love him so much,
Speaker 1: I said. And if he doesn't like it, then I'll
Speaker 1: go home and I'll love my exploitment whatever I supposed
Speaker 1: to do. The point of love is to keep giving it.
Speaker 1: That's the math equations. Love equals three point three, which
Speaker 1: isn't fit. Times equals and squared, which is like lightness forever.
Speaker 1: If love was a number, it would be three, so
Speaker 1: it's infinity times like which is also infinity. So it's
Speaker 1: just forward, forever forward. And if you're selfish, you can't
Speaker 1: understand that because you want something in return. He's not
Speaker 1: giving me anything return, And I still love him, anybody.
Speaker 1: That's what love is. That's what the universe is supposed
Speaker 1: to be made of. When you're finding love. Not everything
Speaker 1: is perfect. This was a journey, and I wanted to
Speaker 1: apologize because nobody would ever be more sorry. See, I
Speaker 1: don't understand that's crazy, that deal with that kind of crazy,
Speaker 1: because that kind of crazy didn't just come out of nowhere,
Speaker 1: all right, It had to be a sign of that
Speaker 1: type of crazy. When y'all first started kicking it with
Speaker 1: each other. I got a homeboy right now, who's dealing
Speaker 1: with some crazy. In early, early, early on in the relationship,
Speaker 1: he found out that this young woman left her children
Speaker 1: in her crib by himself so she could go check
Speaker 1: on her the dude at the club, right, What isn't
Speaker 1: that a sign of crazy? How old were the kids? Yeah, toddlers,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, That's what I'm saying. So when you when
Speaker 1: they show you that in the beginning and then it
Speaker 1: escalates the things even worse, that's kind of your fault
Speaker 1: because you had to see this type of crazy kids
Speaker 1: this summer. Remember, there's a fine line between interests and stalking,
Speaker 1: and let's just all stay on the right side of that. Okay,
Speaker 1: some donkey the days just sell themselves. Please give Jacqueline
Speaker 1: I just the biggest he hall. Did she say that
Speaker 1: she's just gonna go back to her ex? Did she
Speaker 1: say that play that type of crazy again? She says
Speaker 1: she's gonna go back to that. I felt like I
Speaker 1: meant my soul meet and everything was just the way
Speaker 1: it was, and I thought we would just do what
Speaker 1: everybody else did and we would just like get married
Speaker 1: and everything would be fine, but that's not what happened.
Speaker 1: So you're not angry with him? No, Oh my god, no,
Speaker 1: I love him so much. I just want to love
Speaker 1: him so much, said, And if he doesn't like it,
Speaker 1: then I'll go home and I'll of my ex boyfriend.
Speaker 1: Now from the ex boyfriend, I gotta beat up the
Speaker 1: new boyfriend. I'm sure that boyfriend doesn't want her either,
Speaker 1: because I don't want to. No, no, don't come back
Speaker 1: to me, Joe Bally saying, I'm trying to upgrade. But
Speaker 1: if the bank don't get me the loan, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna stay in the card and no man, okay,

Speaker 1: you now. Um, and it's just a little it's just
Speaker 1: seem more stressful to you being mom. It's just a lot,
Speaker 1: all right. So you got engaged and now he has kids.
Speaker 1: We've had custody of her sons for five years now,
Speaker 1: and I guess just me being not being able to
Speaker 1: have that one alone with my child. It's like I
Speaker 1: always brighteness for putting my life out of palls or
Speaker 1: you know, not being able to do what I have
Speaker 1: to do because oh having to help him, and it
Speaker 1: caused a lot of strain in our relationship. And I
Speaker 1: don't want to get married if this conversation is going
Speaker 1: to continue to be brought up, you know. Okay, So
Speaker 1: you feel like you've been neglecting your own responsibilities with
Speaker 1: your daughter because you've been dealing with his family. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well we have responsibility because we have custody of the center.
Speaker 1: I just feel like my daughter's life was cut in
Speaker 1: half or put off palls, you know, and I'm just
Speaker 1: I just missed those. I don't know what he's like
Speaker 1: to have your own child, you know. That those feelings.
Speaker 1: But you guys are about to be a blended family now, yes,
Speaker 1: So it's his responsibility to love your daughter like that
Speaker 1: is his daughter and his son is your son. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't be looking at it like that's his kid
Speaker 1: and this is my kid. These are both of your children,
Speaker 1: and I don't it's just a fact. The love that
Speaker 1: I have from my daughter I'm trying to give him,
Speaker 1: but it's just so hot. And it's been eight years
Speaker 1: y'all have been together, yes, and we've had his son
Speaker 1: for five years. Okay, I mean, first of all, you
Speaker 1: have to think about, you know, the difficulty for his son.
Speaker 1: Why doesn't the mom have custody? She knows six other children,
Speaker 1: six baby fathers, right, Well, I found out about this
Speaker 1: little boy. I immediately said, you know, we need to
Speaker 1: do something, you know, because I don't want to be
Speaker 1: the mom that has the baby seat because she want
Speaker 1: to go to the club every weekend. And listen, think
Speaker 1: about the extra love that his son must need because
Speaker 1: his mom was irresponsible, and what kind of talk that
Speaker 1: could take on him in life, my daughter, that shouldn't
Speaker 1: take away from your child though, you should be able
Speaker 1: to love both of these children. They both live in
Speaker 1: the home with you. Guys, that's his sister, that's her brother,
Speaker 1: and those that's your son and daughter, and that's his
Speaker 1: son and daughter. And you have to stop looking at
Speaker 1: it like this is my child and listen. If there's
Speaker 1: things that you need to do with just you and
Speaker 1: your daughter, you should able to take time to do
Speaker 1: those things. But it's just like I can't. Just like
Speaker 1: he should be bonding with his son, you should be
Speaker 1: bonding with your daughter and spend some time with his
Speaker 1: son too. You know he does need that maternal figure
Speaker 1: in his life. But stop separating whose kid is who's
Speaker 1: These are your children together. So if your child, even
Speaker 1: if these kids were both both of your blood children,
Speaker 1: when one of your kids needs some extra attention, they're
Speaker 1: gonna get it from you, right, You don't want them to.
Speaker 1: Tal is so close off though, he's gonna open up. Well,
Speaker 1: you know why he's closed off. He's a child. Look
Speaker 1: at what he's gone through, you know, having You don't
Speaker 1: know what kind of trauma he's suffered after being in
Speaker 1: the home, you know with the other mother. Really he
Speaker 1: needs your extra lift and he needs your daughter's love
Speaker 1: as well. You all need to be loving him. If
Speaker 1: you feel like he's closed off, make sure you keep
Speaker 1: those lines of communication open with him, because it can't
Speaker 1: be easy for him. It's probably thinks he has no
Speaker 1: idea why he feels the way that he does or
Speaker 1: why he acts like he does. Right, and because a
Speaker 1: lot trips because he doesn't talk to his day talk
Speaker 1: to me, right, And I just I don't As a parent,
Speaker 1: you should love the fact that he feels like he
Speaker 1: can talk to you. I do, I do, I really do.
Speaker 1: But I want him to have the relationship with his mom.
Speaker 1: But because the dad and the mom aren't being able
Speaker 1: to cope here, it's stressful for me. You right, because
Speaker 1: when I do want to be free, you know, his
Speaker 1: dad's like, well, I don't want him to go nowhere
Speaker 1: because I don't know nobody. You know, if you cant
Speaker 1: erection with his mom, we'll be able to do that.
Speaker 1: He needs to probably take some parenting classes because he
Speaker 1: needs to know what he needs to do as a
Speaker 1: father and step up to the plate. But all you
Speaker 1: can do is give as much love to these children
Speaker 1: as you possibly have to give them. Okay, just remember
Speaker 1: these are innocent children. You love them both. Those are
Speaker 1: both your kids right right? Thank you? Okay, you're welcome.
Speaker 1: Good luck. I know it can be really stressful sometimes,
Speaker 1: but you have a great responsibility. Ask ye ain't Andred
Speaker 1: five five one on five one if you got a
Speaker 1: question for ye Coler. Now it's the breakfast Clocal Morning Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye shallow me the guy
Speaker 1: we all the breakfast club with in the middle of
Speaker 1: ask yee, Hello, who's this Frank? What's your question for you?
Speaker 1: I'm calling. Let's see, I got a girlfriend who cheated
Speaker 1: on me multiple times, multiple times. Okay, but that's still
Speaker 1: your girlfriend. Yeah, she's still my girlfriend, and I really
Speaker 1: love it, but I just don't look at her the
Speaker 1: same and I don't know how to get over you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying because she know me well, you really,
Speaker 1: every time I think about think about another man's penis
Speaker 1: exactly what happened and her mouth O. Well, you really
Speaker 1: love her, right, but that doesn't mean she's necessarily the
Speaker 1: right person for you. Now, let's figure this out. You
Speaker 1: said she cheated on you multiple times with multiple people, yes,
Speaker 1: and what is what is she saying about this? Does
Speaker 1: she want to even be with you? Okay? Do you
Speaker 1: believe that she's still cheating on you. Um no, not
Speaker 1: even not at the time. But she has her moments.
Speaker 1: She's a whole. Now, what reason did she give to
Speaker 1: you when you found out? Why did she tell you
Speaker 1: that she cheated so many times? One time it was
Speaker 1: drunk and I wasn't there. She doesn't seem like she's
Speaker 1: ready to be in a relationship. So basically what you're saying,
Speaker 1: I'll say this because a lot of people have stayed
Speaker 1: and guys can say whatever they want, but a lot
Speaker 1: of women have stayed with men who have cheated. A
Speaker 1: lot of men have stayed with women who have cheated.
Speaker 1: But in order for that relationship to work, her behavior
Speaker 1: has to change. Has her behavior changed? No, Okay, well,
Speaker 1: then she doesn't seem like she's making an effort. Because
Speaker 1: when you cheat on somebody, you have to try to
Speaker 1: gain their trust back. If you want to be with
Speaker 1: that person, you have to show that you've improved, that
Speaker 1: you've made these differences in your life, and you want
Speaker 1: to be with that person because you're willing to sacrifice
Speaker 1: whatever it is that you have to You're willing to
Speaker 1: suffer whatever discipline and punishment you have to suffer in
Speaker 1: order to prove that you are worthy of being with
Speaker 1: that person. And she's not doing that. All right, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to hear that man call that whole right
Speaker 1: now and tell hole man that's his girl. Still, that's
Speaker 1: a whole. There you go, there, you go, there, you
Speaker 1: go there. You know that's what I'm like, backstret chest,
Speaker 1: stop that because when women, when mention on women, you
Speaker 1: be encouraging to women to stay. I do what exactly
Speaker 1: I've stayed. Listen, I've stayed with my woman and she
Speaker 1: cheated on me. But he said multipole times right, multiple
Speaker 1: when you're even ask him what she's doing now, he said,
Speaker 1: probably cheating. Dumped that whole. He's a little strong, all right,
Speaker 1: ask eight hundred five eighty five one on five one. Now,
Speaker 1: we got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan and the docuseries that's on the way about him.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Speaker 1: Keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast
Speaker 1: clubs just oh gosh. Gorum reports with Angela's report Breakfast Club. Well,

Speaker 1: the hook of the song, in case you haven't heard it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I just want to kiss it. I just want
Speaker 1: to kill girls, girls, girls. Right now here is Rita
Speaker 1: or his verse, I just want to kill you guys back.
Speaker 1: We learn a lot of how to do it like,
Speaker 1: we do it like we wanna. We just know. We
Speaker 1: just know. I am excited, I'm over minded, I'm fifty
Speaker 1: fifty and I'm never gonna hat it. You should know
Speaker 1: all right now here it is Cardi Ba's verse, be
Speaker 1: a listic just for one night one. You just wanna
Speaker 1: have funny, happy fun strike you hum mey semi name,
Speaker 1: my name, my name, It says good just running up
Speaker 1: your songs right up with the snap to your lipsop
Speaker 1: fucking rocks we never heard of you can swing gunning
Speaker 1: up about them to bust myself. God, I'm so sexyself,
Speaker 1: but still you bitch, but this up tonight, I don't
Speaker 1: want to go. So. The song is about girls kissing girls,
Speaker 1: girls liking girls. Yeah, now, Katy Perry did it better.
Speaker 1: Now it was offensive to the LGBTQ community. Now Killanie
Speaker 1: posted hate to be that guy, but there were many
Speaker 1: awkward slurs, quotes and moments that were like word word
Speaker 1: and Killannie said, and don't make this personal. I have
Speaker 1: an incredible song out with one of the artists and
Speaker 1: would love to work with the other three as well.
Speaker 1: They were harmful lyrics period love y'all. I missed it
Speaker 1: like one. Well, the problem is this that they were
Speaker 1: um and the problem is they saying that that song
Speaker 1: is basically it's not fun to make a decision like
Speaker 1: some I don't need to drink wine to kiss girls,
Speaker 1: because that was in the hook. She said, I love
Speaker 1: women my entire life. In other words, it's not a
Speaker 1: fun thing just to say, okay, I want to be
Speaker 1: you know, kiss girls. Sometimes to kids, guys. Sometimes people
Speaker 1: were offended. Not rita Or has since apologized. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: how he expressed myself and my song has hurt anyone.
Speaker 1: I would never intentionally cause harm to other LGBTQ people
Speaker 1: or anyone. Looking forward, I hope that continuing to express
Speaker 1: myself through my art will empower my fans to feel
Speaker 1: it's proud of themselves, as I'm learning to feel about
Speaker 1: who I am, and you know, she just didn't mean
Speaker 1: any harm. She said it was representing her truth and
Speaker 1: an accurate account of a very real and honest experience
Speaker 1: that she has had. Now. Cardi B also has posted
Speaker 1: on Twitter, I know I have used words before that
Speaker 1: I wasn't aware that they are offensive to the LGBT community.
Speaker 1: I apologized for that. Not everybody knows the correct terms
Speaker 1: to use. I learned and I stopped using it. So
Speaker 1: this is this is a mom of the incredible level
Speaker 1: of reaching because I don't hear the words unless you
Speaker 1: unless we didn't play him just now. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 1: hear the words it, but I thought Cardi B has
Speaker 1: said before that she likes girls and she's into girls. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she has said that. I guess people were offended because
Speaker 1: they were saying things like, you know, sometimes I just
Speaker 1: want to drink wine and kiss girls and you know,
Speaker 1: just like a I guess it's for people. It's a
Speaker 1: lifestyle choice. It's not like a fun thing where I
Speaker 1: like Katy Perry, I kissed the girl and I like it. Okay,
Speaker 1: that record was way better than the record that read
Speaker 1: or I can't tell people what not to get offended back.
Speaker 1: I can tell people what they like. And this offended you.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to say. I mean, I think
Speaker 1: that's the most intention is read or record gonna get
Speaker 1: what a waste of a CARDI feature that record, Charlie features.
Speaker 1: I just hit a bunch of waste of features. Record.
Speaker 1: Don't worry read? Are you still pretty all right? Netflix
Speaker 1: and ESPN had partnered up to do a Michael Jordan
Speaker 1: docuseries is called The Last Dance. It's going to chronicle
Speaker 1: the simultaneous rise of Jordan and the Chicago Bulls and
Speaker 1: how popular the NBA was during the nineties. And Jordan
Speaker 1: is participating in this as well as other people who
Speaker 1: were very key figures from the Bulls championship teams. I'm
Speaker 1: here for that. There's going to be more than five
Speaker 1: hundred hours of never before seen footage that should be
Speaker 1: pretty interesting, plus a commentary from dozens of other sports
Speaker 1: luminaries should be pretty exciting. It's always weird watching those
Speaker 1: documentaries when you were actually you actually were there. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, that's all error, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But it's gonna be footage you've
Speaker 1: never seen before. So I'm excited about that should be interesting.
Speaker 1: It's directed by Jason here. He did the Fab five. Also,
Speaker 1: I'd rather than put out some sneakers I've never seen before. Okay,
