Let's getting 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.840 some front page news start an NBA. Lebron might have 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:17.040 a problem. Celtics beat the Cavaliers last night one oh 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:20.120 seven ninety forty leads the series two oh and Lebron 0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:23.080 had a triple double forty five points I think ten rebounds, 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.040 ten assists and they lost. Well, Celtics are a great team, 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.639 Q are a team t e a m Okay more 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:33.480 than one player contributing to the success of the Boston Celtics, 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.240 and they are going to be a beast in the future. 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:39.200 Kyrie Irvin still coming back next year at Gordon Haywood. 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:42.280 And they got a lottery pick. Boston drop on a 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.280 clues bond for them and not even like the Celtics 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:47.400 and the Phoenix Suns got the first pick in the 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:52.400 n NBA draft. Now, let's talk the most fit city, 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:55.400 all right, Well, they actually did this study, the twenty 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.280 eighteen American Fitness Index, the eleventh year they've done that. 0:03:58.560 --> 0:04:00.760 They ranked the one hundred largest cities in the nation. 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:04.240 That's based on population data that includes information about mental health, 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:08.760 about nutrition, smoking, chronic diseases, and overall fitness. They also 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.800 took into consideration the number of parks and the residents 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:14.720 access to public transportation. And who do you think was 0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:18.800 number one as far as the fittest city in America? 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:20.680 I said, some way in California, but you said no, 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:26.320 So who Arlington, Virginia in Virginia, really, yes, was number one. 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.520 Chick fil as and waffle houses and all kind of 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:30.880 stuff of Virginia. Well, they have the lowest smoking rate, 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.440 the highest reports of very good or excellent health compared 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:36.480 to the other communities in the index, and they both 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.919 have a balance of both healthy behaviors and community infrastructure. 0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:42.000 So that's why they are number one. I wonder how 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.040 are you ranking that? Are you ranking that? Open? Hey? 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:47.760 You said just healthy behavior? Well, it's about mental health, nutrition, smoking, 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:52.080 chronic diseases, and overall fitness. In how many people they pulled? 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:57.440 So actually California. The highest one from California. San Jose 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.560 was number nine on the list. It was New York. 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.080 New York was number I think it was fifty two. 0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.760 Scroll all the way down. Yeah, New York is number 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:09.160 fifty two. Put New York and Rice throw them New 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:11.440 York all the way away and LA was number fifty, 0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:14.000 but the first three were Arlington, Virginia, then Minneapolis, and 0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:18.160 then Washington, DC rounded out the top three. Day. Yeah, 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.360 what else you talking about? Now? Let's talk about Facebook. 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:22.680 They are saying that they took down twenty one million 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.040 pieces of adult nudity in the first three months of 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.520 this year. So they have six categories where they really 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.440 enforced their efforts to remove things that violate their standards. 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:37.000 That's graphic violence, adult nudity, sexual activity, terrorists, propaganda, hate speech, spam, 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.039 and fake accounts. So what are people doing on Facebook? 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:41.920 Facebook sounds born very boring though, well, because of all 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.240 that that being removed. If you're on Facebook, sometimes they 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.479 send you these things like this woman wants to talk 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.040 to you or call me, and then they actually spam 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:52.080 your account with those. So a lot of what they 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.280 did was then removing these spam and fake accounts that 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.360 were promoting nudity and sexual content. That's about ninety six 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.599 percent of those things that were removed, But it only 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:04.960 took down about two point five million pieces of hate 0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:07.760 speech during that period, and only thirty eight percent of 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.360 that was flagged by its algorithms. So they said their 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.880 technology still doesn't work that well, and they need to 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.479 check that by their review teams for hate speech. I 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.719 on Instagram to remove this young lady who keeps hitting 0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.240 me talking about she got her herpes removed with herbals. 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:23.919 I keep getting that too, and my dumbass reads it 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:26.320 every every time, and you're like, oh yeah, because it's 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.680 written like a real message. So I'm like, why I 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:30.880 faf with this every time? And who actually wants to 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:34.720 get a cartoon of drawing of themselves? I hate. I 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:36.760 don't know how he does that or how they do that. 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:39.080 Oh my goodness, I don't even know why that's a thing. 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.919 I got my herpes removed with herbal supplements.

You were 0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:16.760 talking about that. You were watching, uh, your camera and 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.400 you can started past you and your camera. You were 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:20.800 trying to figure out what it was. Did you don't 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.599 find out what it was? Nope? Probably a spirit of 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:26.720 some sort, though I've been getting visited by spirits for years. 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:29.760 Oh damn, A right to my brother, That's all I 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:37.920 wanted to say, Hello, who's this?

So 0:12:56.360 --> 0:13:01.559 what stroll with you? What's up track? Why do you 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.839 call this morning? I would call the boss about my 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:07.959 last city? Man, Well, let's Philadelphia on the raised on 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:09.599 the playground is where I kicked it with all of 0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:16.160 the gays. Donamated going one of them older than y'all. 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:19.839 But I don't know, y'all hurt about this triple shoot 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.720 and from these little fifteen and sixteen year old boys 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:26.160 that killed They killed one girl. She was seventeen years old, 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:28.839 and right after the prime or something. Yeah, it was 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.199 like what, I don't know. I don't know if it's 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:32.920 right after the problem. I just know that it was 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:34.959 like late at night. It was like sixteenagers standing on 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:37.280 the corner, which they always stand on the corner past 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:38.960 twelve o'clock at night. I don't know where their parents 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:42.880 be doing. But these little boys shot twenty seven times 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.160 wow out in the street and kills them. What's what 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.160 the Delphia is getting? It's already been a jungle out here, 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:52.360 but it's getting worse. And it's these little boys, man. 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:54.480 And I'll be telling my little cousins and everything, because 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:56.400 my little cousin swear they gooms and I tell they 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:58.439 got to stop it and they gonna end up dead 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:00.480 when it will end up in jail. And they don't 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:02.000 want to be like that. Man. So these kids, we 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:03.679 don't need to put the guns down. And if I 0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:06.200 find out who'll be out here shooting, I'm telling on y'all. 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.000 Don't don't. Don't don't. This is so sad, rest and peace, 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:15.120 says Sandria Williams. She was only seventeen years old. Might 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.880 say her name, but yeah, So basically, maybe they gotta 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:21.520 put the guns down, man, and and don't believe in 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:23.440 that no switching policy. If you know who killed that 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.240 little girl, man till Man. They said, twenty three shots 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:30.120 in seven seconds. Why what was the reason they give 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:33.840 a reason? Track, Well, nobody's been arrested yet because it's 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:36.280 like literally be like maybe five blocks from where I live. 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.960 So that they said, it's like these little neighborhoods that's beefing, 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.440 and these little boys came from like these these blocks 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:44.480 that the beef and they literally be like two or 0:14:44.560 --> 0:14:47.120 three blocks away from each other and beef and over nothing, 0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:49.360 beef and over property they don't own. You know what, 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.480 it was just a petty dispute. Well, they said, there's 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:56.040 a twenty thousand dollars reward for the arrest or conviction 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.240 of anybody. So twenty thousand dollars award reward if you 0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:03.200 want to inform two on five five four six tips. Again, 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:06.200 it's two one five five four six tips. Can you 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.400 remain anonymous when you give you tips? But you can 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:10.120 remain a knowledge. But you I don't think you get 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:12.120 the money. So if y'a don't want to tell, y'all 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.320 tell me and I'll tell and I'll get the twenty 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:16.480 thousand dollars. But you it ain't even about the money. 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:18.359 I don't see how you can have that on your consciousness. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:20.280 I'll sell you can have I'll see how you can 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:21.800 know who did that and have that on your conscious 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:25.360 and be cool sleep at night. Somebody knows. But all right, 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.080 y'all have a good day. Thanks traf alright, draft, alright, 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:30.280 get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five 0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:31.800 one on five one. If you need to vent, you 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:33.480 can hit this up at any time that you've got 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:36.240 rumors on the way. Yes, find out what NBA well, 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:39.440 former NBA player is saying, run me my money. Okay, 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.280 we'll get into that when we come back. We'll find out. 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:45.120 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. He's 0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:48.840 the Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.560 We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. 0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:59.480 It's so Bill Cosby. It's about report. Is the rumor 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:05.520 report Angela the Breakfast Club. So just updating you on 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:09.520 the outcome of Bill Cosby's conviction. He was convicted of 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:12.680 sexual assault and he will be sentenced on September twenty fourth. 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:19.800 Damn already September twenty four, three months quicker than that. Yeah, 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.920 usually it is. Doesn't seem close. But he had asked 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:27.200 me to get sentencing delayed until the end of the year, 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:30.480 but they decided September twenty fourth. Now, his convictions on 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:33.840 three counts of aggravated in decent assault, they said, will 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:36.960 likely be combined into one charge, and that standard sentence 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:39.080 will be five to ten years in prison. I don't 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.360 see it happening. I think Bill gonna die before then. Honestly, 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.360 he's gonna be eighty one. He's turning eighty one in July. Yeah, 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:46.560 I think Bill gonna ask the grim Reaping for the 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.160 check way before September, canny appeal after that, so he 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.800 can appeal and then be on house arrest again and 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:55.240 it'll take a guess another year or so. Yeah, I'm 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:57.800 sure he can, all right, well, he lived about four 0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.560 years too long. Man. In the meantime, he doesn't GPS 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:03.560 monitoring bracelet, and he needs permission to leave the house. 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:05.800 Oh my god, he's not going lay. And even when 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:07.399 he does leave the house, he's only allowed to go 0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:11.280 visit his lawyers or his doctor. So there you have it. 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.120 That's your update on Bill Cosby, Ray Sherman, and West 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.760 Khalifa have announced a tour together. They're doing a co 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:21.639 headlining tour, the Dazed and Blazed Summer twenty eighteen. So 0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.520 that starts to Lie twenty first in Detroit and it's 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:27.359 going to wrap up August thirtieth in Phoenix. That sounds 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:31.159 like a foreign tour. Yeah, Dazed and Blazed. Yes, at 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:35.680 least fifteen felonies too high, they'll be too high. They're 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:37.560 gonn arrested definitely for weed in some places where you 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:40.719 can't smoke at some points. All right, Ryan Seacrest, there 0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:45.600 was an uncomfortable moment. Now he was hosting American Idol 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:48.280 and he was having a conversation with Katy Perry, and 0:17:48.359 --> 0:17:50.760 it looks like they did not realize that the show 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:54.680 was back live. And here is what their conversation was 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:57.480 sounding like. As Ryan Seacrest talked to Katy Perry in 0:17:57.640 --> 0:17:59.920 front of the other judges, lying on Richie and Luke Bryan, 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:04.520 the mom's pretty, well, I hope the apple doesn't fall 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:10.119 far from the trade. You are but you're not yea, 0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:21.040 not yet. We want to talk about what I think? 0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:27.359 We're back? Is it real? This is it? Are we professional? 0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:29.560 What am I missing? On dock and make out? Was 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.000 your mom's pretty? Said? The apple doesn't fall far from 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:35.280 and then and then he says, you're not a mom 0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:36.920 and she said not yet, and he said, do you 0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:39.480 want to talk about it? So that was the conversation. 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.720 So what's the problem. It's flirting? Yeah, it was. I 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:44.960 mean the problem was that it looked like they didn't 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:46.400 know they were back on the air. They were having 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:49.560 this conversation and they were saying it was very uncomfortable 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:52.639 and awkward. But it doesn't like she was joking right 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:57.119 back along. The only thing that was an awkward was 0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:58.560 that they didn't know they were back on the air 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:02.160 and they were having this comment kind of mumbling, we're bad. 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.359 Does he have a go friend? I don't know. I 0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:06.400 don't think y'all not used to hearing Ryan Seacrest talk 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:09.200 to a woman. That's what I think. Shut up, I'm serious, 0:19:09.200 --> 0:19:11.160 because you always just have like this blank slate when 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:13.600 it comes to sexuality. I'm serious, That's what I think 0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:15.840 it is. He's always seen around with women. I don't 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:17.440 ever seen with women. So I just think that y'all 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:20.200 aren't used to seeing Ryan talk like that. We're also 0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:22.199 not used to any type of error as far as 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:24.400 not knowing the cameras or back rolling and you're having 0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:28.359 this mumbling conversation not realizing your back live. But he's 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:30.240 so professional all the time, That's what I'm saying. Ryan 0:19:30.400 --> 0:19:33.280 is always like so robotic and always in the whole smold. 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:35.520 You always see him saying the right thing, doing the 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:38.760 right thing on stage. That's a real moment from Ryan Seacrest. 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:40.840 We're not used to hearing that. Also. I mean that 0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:42.399 could also be kind of a set up to make 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:44.760 it seem like it's real because you've done TV a 0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:46.520 million in one time, Cholo, and you know when you're 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:48.560 going back live. Yes, that's a fact that in that 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:52.919 place also already we don't know right us, but an 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.359 American idol, though, you're not gonna like joke around and 0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:57.720 pretend you don't know your back live and you realize 0:19:57.960 --> 0:20:00.440 we've heard presidents get caught out like that that, we've 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.119 heard Jesse Jackson. You want to cut Barack Obama's balls off, 0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:05.600 and he didn't know that Michael's on. It happens, It 0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:08.639 happens all right. Now, Gilbert Arenas is saying that he 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:12.439 wants his money. That's because he got a judgment against 0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:14.920 Laura Govan and still hasn't gotten paid one hundred and 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:18.080 ten thousand dollars for his emotional distress. It's been almost 0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:20.600 two years when a judge ruled that she had to 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:23.280 pay him, and now he is saying, give me my cash. 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.240 So he's trying to get that, and that's because he's 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:28.440 saying that she spread a false rumor that he gave 0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:31.000 her an std S get your money, Gilbert dropping a 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:34.240 close bumber, Gilbert Arenas, that's a petty negro right there, boy, 0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:37.080 God dang it, that's why you can't give petty people 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:40.200 that much money. All right, how much one hundred and 0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:42.800 ten thousand dollars pay up? And that's what matter of fact, 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:44.520 all you're doing is giving me, giving me my money back, 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:47.200 by the way, that's all you're technically doing giving me 0:20:47.400 --> 0:20:49.159 my money back. Oh you don't think she makes her 0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:52.240 own money. I'm sure she does, but I'm sure she 0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:54.040 makes a lot more from Gilbert arenas how much she 0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:55.760 get him off in child sport. I don't think she 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.560 gets that much from him at all. Yeah, because she 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:01.200 took her back to didn't he. I don't think she 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:03.040 gets a lot of money from him. So one hundred 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:04.879 and ten thousand dollars is still a lot of money. Well, 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:06.879 I know, I know Gilbert has invested that kind of 0:21:06.920 --> 0:21:08.880 money in her over the years, So let me get 0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:12.320 that back, all right. Well, the money should be for 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:13.840 the kids, though, because they do have a lot of 0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:15.520 kids together. Not if you lied to me and said 0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:17.639 I got an STD and this money for me, right, 0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:19.280 he's gonna give it back to the kids. It's gonna 0:21:19.280 --> 0:21:20.760 go to him, and he's gonna give it right back. 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:25.000 Gets less than ten thousand dollars a month, seven thousand. 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:27.359 I'm gonna kiss that, Hi, let me kiss it that. 0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:31.240 I think they have what four kids give me? Me? Man? Wow? 0:21:32.080 --> 0:21:34.080 All right, Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your 0:21:34.240 --> 0:21:37.920 rumor report. They have four kids together? Seven thousand and four, kids, 0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:41.919 Gilbert Arenas. Wow, all right, all right, well that's your 0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:45.760 rumor report. When we come back from Empire, Jesse Smollett 0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:47.199 will be joining us, so we'll kick it with him 0:21:47.200 --> 0:21:49.879 when we come back. Don't move.

Thank you, and he's 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:11.240 a sneaky donator because he donated to our Change for Change. 0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:12.600 It didn't even tell us it did it on the low. 0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:14.720 I was just real quiet, like it real quiet that 0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:16.399 we appreciate that.

I'm kettle, nice to me. Want 0:22:34.000 --> 0:22:36.600 you to start some TV show or something something like that, 0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:39.080 something like that or couple things. What's good, y'all and 0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:41.280 everything's good. I know it feels good for you though, 0:22:41.320 --> 0:22:45.760 because you have this tour, the album out. Yeah, I 0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:48.760 just got um. I just got back from Germany and France. 0:22:48.840 --> 0:22:50.920 Every single date has been sold out. So wow. We 0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:54.719 started Oakland May seventeen, going back home to the Bay 0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:58.719 Area and then New York and every everywhere, everywhere. Are 0:22:58.720 --> 0:23:01.760 you already thinking about life after Empire? Oh? Yeah, I 0:23:01.880 --> 0:23:06.640 was thinking about life after Empire before Empire. I think 0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:09.080 also that once we got officially picked up for season five, 0:23:09.119 --> 0:23:11.040 it kind of hit me that I'm doing the right 0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:14.920 things to kind of lay lay the foundation for life 0:23:15.000 --> 0:23:17.639 after Empire, because it can't be. As we know, nothing 0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:20.200 can last forever, especially something like a TV show. What 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:22.560 did you expect when you got the part an Empire? Like, 0:23:22.800 --> 0:23:24.119 did you expect it to go that long? Do you 0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:26.520 think it was one season? What were your expectation? Honestly, 0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:28.199 didn't know. I've been doing this since I was four 0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:30.880 years old. A brother got his sad card nineteen eighty seven, 0:23:31.359 --> 0:23:32.920 So I mean, I've been doing it for a minute. 0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:35.520 And sometimes you do things that are really successful that 0:23:35.600 --> 0:23:36.920 you didn't know it was going to be successful. And 0:23:37.000 --> 0:23:38.720 sometimes you do things that you're like, Yo, this's gonna 0:23:38.720 --> 0:23:42.480 be dope, and then just silence and no one cares 0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:44.960 about it. So you know as an artist, I don't 0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:46.800 feel like you really want to make the assumption that 0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:49.359 something's going to be successful. I knew there would be 0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:52.240 critically acclaimed, but I didn't really, Honest to god, I 0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:55.520 went into it just being like, I'm gonna get to 0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:59.000 work with these amazing people Terrence and Taragi and Lee Daniels, 0:23:59.040 --> 0:24:01.239 and for that, you know, it's gonna be all good. 0:24:01.280 --> 0:24:03.040 It's gonna do something from my career. I just didn't 0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:05.240 know what and how was it with season five because 0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:08.320 I'm sure everybody got an ego in some way shape before, 0:24:08.400 --> 0:24:11.880 because I mean, because everybody's grown, like in a big way. Yeah, 0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:16.200 it's crazy. Um, season five. You know, we've been fighting 0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:18.920 for the show a lot. You know, we fight. We 0:24:19.080 --> 0:24:22.880 fight for storylines that we don't we fight against storylines 0:24:22.920 --> 0:24:24.879 that we don't believe in. We fight four storylines that 0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:28.120 we do believe in. Lie says that he's officially woke 0:24:28.240 --> 0:24:32.040 up and he's coming home to like bring it, bring 0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:33.920 it to what it needs to be. So season five 0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:35.400 is supposed to be I just got off the phone 0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:38.280 with him when I was heading here, So, um, you 0:24:38.359 --> 0:24:40.400 know we'll see Season five is supposed to be real dope. 0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:42.280 So yeah, they've been hands on. Are you gonna be 0:24:42.280 --> 0:24:44.560 directing more on? Yeah, I officially got the word. I'm 0:24:44.560 --> 0:24:50.440 definitely gonna be directing. Give me that bad torect some money. 0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:53.440 Why you said you wanted to be? Did I read 0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:55.240 that correctly? Said you wanted to be the Black Barberscris 0:24:55.560 --> 0:25:04.800 the well mail? Also, Yeah, Um, I just mean, I 0:25:04.920 --> 0:25:06.280 just mean by that. It's funny because I was just 0:25:06.320 --> 0:25:07.760 saying yesterday, I was like, I'm not gonna say that 0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:10.520 no more because it's not about being like a black 0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:13.920 version of anybody. I just respect her as far as 0:25:14.040 --> 0:25:16.000 all that she's done, and she's done it well. You know, 0:25:16.080 --> 0:25:19.240 I want to direct and music and acting and writing 0:25:19.359 --> 0:25:21.600 and things like that and still holding onto my voice 0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:24.320 as an activist. She's been able to do that and 0:25:24.400 --> 0:25:27.240 do it well. So yeah, for sure. So let's talk 0:25:27.240 --> 0:25:29.520 a little bit about the music, because I've been wondering 0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:31.760 when it's Jesse gonna put out a full album. And 0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:33.639 I'm sure there had to be some restraints on you 0:25:33.880 --> 0:25:36.160 being on a show like Empire, because I know there's 0:25:36.160 --> 0:25:37.720 all kinds of deals you have music that you do 0:25:37.840 --> 0:25:41.200 for the show. You guys had albums for Empire, But 0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:43.919 did that restrict you from doing your own music? Oh? 0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:48.040 Hell yeah, period of time. Hell yeah. And this is 0:25:48.080 --> 0:25:51.920 the thing, like I was making music before Empire and 0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:55.200 releasing it and I say this before with it with 0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:59.520 Triple Plastic. But whatever, it's still it's still. It was 0:25:59.600 --> 0:26:01.600 out there. It was mine, you know what I'm saying. 0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:03.200 So I know how to do that with no budget 0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:06.200 at all. Now, thanks to my job at Empire, I 0:26:06.320 --> 0:26:08.200 got a little bit of a budget that I can do. 0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:10.159 But it's still you know. So it's okay to be 0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:12.280 Indie and it works for me because I feel like 0:26:12.359 --> 0:26:13.800 that's the type of artist that I have to be. 0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:16.800 I'm impatient and I don't do well with red tape. 0:26:18.359 --> 0:26:20.560 I was. I was signed to Columbia and then I 0:26:20.640 --> 0:26:24.040 asked I asked Fox to take my contract back. And 0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:26.520 there's no hard feelings just this. It was bullshit. It wasn't. 0:26:26.600 --> 0:26:29.960 It wasn't for me. I don't want to do this 0:26:29.960 --> 0:26:32.040 because at the end of the day, Fox owned the contract, 0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:35.600 so they were able to take it back. Um. And 0:26:35.760 --> 0:26:37.880 I just cut a thing straight with them, my own 0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:40.639 my master's one hundred percent um. And for me, it 0:26:40.720 --> 0:26:42.280 was just a thing of being in a room and 0:26:42.280 --> 0:26:43.800 I said this so many times at this point. It's 0:26:43.840 --> 0:26:47.040 something about being in a room with like old, straight 0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:50.080 white men and they're telling you what piece of your 0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:53.720 art that you created should be heard by the people 0:26:53.840 --> 0:26:55.960 it was created for. And it's like, to me, that 0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:58.400 doesn't make any sense, and it never did, never will 0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:02.159 you know, there are no Barry Gordy's anymore, There are 0:27:02.280 --> 0:27:04.600 no I mean, puff is still you know, doing a 0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:06.640 single such a mode as you know what I'm saying, 0:27:06.960 --> 0:27:09.560 But it's not. It's a bunch of suits sitting in 0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:11.600 a room. And then the people that are A and 0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:13.639 R like my A and R. Dude, Sean Holliday, he's 0:27:13.680 --> 0:27:16.080 dope as hell, He's dope as hell. But still the 0:27:16.119 --> 0:27:18.840 people that were making the final decisions, it wasn't It 0:27:18.960 --> 0:27:20.680 wasn't for me. You couldn't make the decision on what 0:27:20.800 --> 0:27:23.159 single you wanted to put out. No, I couldn't make 0:27:23.200 --> 0:27:25.680 the decision over whether I was going to put out 0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:28.560 a single. So it was it was just a thing 0:27:28.720 --> 0:27:32.680 of I felt like with every single, with every successive Empire, 0:27:32.800 --> 0:27:35.200 as well as with every failure of Empire. Somehow my 0:27:35.320 --> 0:27:38.760 album took a hit and myself as an artist, took 0:27:38.800 --> 0:27:41.600 a hit and it just wasn't. It wasn't what music 0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:44.000 is supposed to be to me, you know what I'm saying. 0:27:44.040 --> 0:27:46.480 Like record companies, that's cool, it works for people, good 0:27:46.520 --> 0:27:49.360 for them. But for me, it was just I'd rather 0:27:49.520 --> 0:27:53.040 take me longer. But it takes me longer than it 0:27:53.160 --> 0:27:55.360 takes you know, I'm listening to a bunch of people 0:27:55.359 --> 0:27:57.160 and it's still not gonna get released. They should allow 0:27:57.160 --> 0:27:58.920 you to release it during the show because it's gonna 0:27:58.920 --> 0:28:00.439 do nothing but big the show. Even more, they put 0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:02.760 their they put out their own stuff. They put out 0:28:02.800 --> 0:28:04.960 their own stuff, so it's like it's like who's gonna 0:28:05.000 --> 0:28:08.399 do it? Jesse or jamal Right, I'll always beat that 0:28:11.400 --> 0:28:13.000 have ahead of a record label. Would you rather be 0:28:13.040 --> 0:28:16.280 signing the Lucius of Cookie? Oh, that's a good question. 0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:19.399 I probably would be. Would rather be signed to Cookie 0:28:19.920 --> 0:28:23.800 because she because she's creative, but she's also she feels 0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:26.280 like it feels like she's not like my way is 0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:28.639 the only way. I feel like. I probably want to 0:28:28.680 --> 0:28:31.680 be signed to Cookie more. She's sweeter and she smells better. 0:28:32.200 --> 0:28:35.440 You know, did you and Michelle Obama pre playing that 0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:38.320 little dance session? Nah? That was all. That was all. 0:28:38.360 --> 0:28:40.440 I Wow, she's as cool as hell and she was 0:28:40.520 --> 0:28:42.920 just like she wrote with it, She's just cool. She's cool. 0:28:43.000 --> 0:28:45.560 She's like Auntie Auntie. I say, when white when the 0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:48.480 White House used to be Wakanda, it was everything, it 0:28:48.640 --> 0:28:50.440 was everything. She's just dope, like she don't care, she 0:28:50.600 --> 0:28:52.640 jams and she's she's just cool. It's real cool. You 0:28:52.720 --> 0:28:56.920 know you met her before having grown up and now 0:28:56.960 --> 0:28:58.880 seeing where you're at in life, are there people that 0:28:58.960 --> 0:29:01.880 you're amazed? Like I can't believe that I'm with Naomi 0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:04.840 Campbell walking the runaway for her. You know, like does 0:29:04.880 --> 0:29:08.360 it ever sometimes hit you like damn, this is crazy? Yeah, 0:29:08.440 --> 0:29:10.560 it still hits me. I hope that that never stops 0:29:10.640 --> 0:29:12.520 hitting me because it's exciting to me, you know what 0:29:12.600 --> 0:29:16.000 I'm saying, Like this is my life, but you also 0:29:16.080 --> 0:29:18.720 can't take it too seriously. Growing up, all of my 0:29:19.000 --> 0:29:21.920 idols I somehow have some sort of connection. I mean, 0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:23.920 minus my idols that are no longer with us, but 0:29:24.360 --> 0:29:27.600 just like you know, getting to meet Buster Rhymes or 0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:31.360 or you know, hanging with Little Kim, that's being able 0:29:31.400 --> 0:29:33.440 to call like Brandy or Monica on the phone, Like 0:29:33.520 --> 0:29:37.400 that's dope as hell talking about Hello that just meant 0:29:37.480 --> 0:29:39.520 him at Puffs party and he was just cool as hell. 0:29:39.600 --> 0:29:41.920 He was like yo, man, yo yo, and he's just cool, 0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:45.080 yo cool, He's cool. He's cool. So just meeting all 0:29:45.080 --> 0:29:47.360 these people and seeing number one that they're normal people 0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.600 and also to me kind of checking like like Swizz 0:29:51.600 --> 0:29:54.000 and Alicia for instance, like they are just normal people. 0:29:54.040 --> 0:29:55.600 To me, it's cool to see that you don't have 0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:57.720 to be an asshole in order to be successful and 0:29:57.800 --> 0:30:00.680 have longevity. Somehow we have this idea that you know, 0:30:00.760 --> 0:30:02.800 to be strong, to be powerful, to be whatever, you 0:30:02.920 --> 0:30:05.360 have to be a jerk. And to see people that 0:30:05.440 --> 0:30:08.160 are actually, you know, pretty good people, it makes you 0:30:08.240 --> 0:30:10.200 feel better. That's kind of what I take away from it. 0:30:10.200 --> 0:30:11.480 So you got to meet the new artist to do 0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:14.280 an artists and the girls have been in the game 0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:16.520 a long time, they usually cool. Usually the people that 0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:18.960 have longevity, you look at someone like Forest Whitaker that 0:30:19.000 --> 0:30:20.640 came on the show, or Alfrey Woodard who have known 0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:22.560 since I was fifteen years old. They don't have to 0:30:22.600 --> 0:30:24.960 puff out their chests and prove anything because the proof 0:30:25.120 --> 0:30:27.200 is in the art. Angela Bassett, you look at her 0:30:27.320 --> 0:30:28.800 like I just saw her last night and she's just 0:30:29.240 --> 0:30:32.160 every time I see her, she's Auntie like, She's just 0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:34.800 so full of love. And it's those people that actually 0:30:34.880 --> 0:30:39.600 will have the careers forever and the careers forever with respect. 0:30:40.040 --> 0:30:42.000 We got more with Jesse Smellett. When we come back, 0:30:42.080 --> 0:30:45.040 don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast 0:30:45.160 --> 0:30:51.160 Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee Scharlamin the guy. 0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:54.120 We are the Breakfast Club from Empire. We have Jesse 0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:55.960 Smollett in the building. How do you go back and 0:30:56.040 --> 0:30:58.440 forth from Jamala Jesse? When you perform, do you or 0:30:58.600 --> 0:31:01.400 it's just you know my own I mean when I'm performing. 0:31:01.480 --> 0:31:06.520 Here's the thing, it's people do soundtracks. Empire is a soundtrack. 0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.280 You know what I'm saying. I'm not comparing myself to 0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:10.920 Whitney Houston. But like she did The Bodyguard, she did 0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:13.000 Waiting to Text, Hell, she did The Preacher's Wife. If 0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.560 she sings those songs in concert, those are still Whitney 0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:17.280 Houston songs. True. So at the end of the day, 0:31:17.320 --> 0:31:19.560 if I'm singing good enough, no other man or woman 0:31:19.640 --> 0:31:22.080 has sung good enough. No one else has released that song. 0:31:22.160 --> 0:31:25.480 That's my song. So it's me playing Jamal when I'm 0:31:25.600 --> 0:31:27.720 in the show, but when I'm singing it, it's a 0:31:27.840 --> 0:31:30.520 JUSTI Smallette song. Because in the bathroom you're taking a piss. 0:31:30.600 --> 0:31:33.400 Somebody walked in and goes, Jamal, do you reply? Hell no, 0:31:34.440 --> 0:31:37.240 First of all, I'm not replying if you say if 0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:40.200 you're coming in the bathroom, and that has happened before, 0:31:40.560 --> 0:31:43.160 I'm not answering, like do not speak to me. You 0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:45.640 can speak to me, but don't, like, don't really speak 0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:48.080 to me in the bathroom. There's two places that I'm 0:31:48.120 --> 0:31:50.360 just like yo, Like I'm good. I love everybody. I 0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:52.960 never say no to a picture unless I'm with my 0:31:53.080 --> 0:31:55.240 niece or my nephew because then it's like I don't 0:31:55.280 --> 0:31:57.160 want them to be with one uncle And it's like, 0:31:57.160 --> 0:31:59.360 oh I get all my time when I'm with Uncle Jockey. 0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:02.000 But this is the norm for Uncle Jesse, Like I 0:32:02.120 --> 0:32:04.880 have to set some sort of you know, and people 0:32:04.920 --> 0:32:07.480 always understand that and if they don't, this is my 0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:09.200 niece and my nephew. I can't help that. I love you, 0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:10.720 but I can't help that, like no one is more 0:32:10.760 --> 0:32:14.160 important than them, um, but yeah, like, don't talk to 0:32:14.240 --> 0:32:16.800 me in the bathroom if we at the urinal and 0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:24.120 don't talk to me when I'm on the treadmill. One time, 0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:26.360 I literally was on the trademill at homeboy walked past 0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:30.200 me and he's like this with his phone and I'm 0:32:30.280 --> 0:32:35.400 just like and so I called him over. I was like, 0:32:35.480 --> 0:32:37.520 you know who I am? And he's like yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:32:37.640 --> 0:32:39.040 And I was like, then you know that I'm coolish. 0:32:39.080 --> 0:32:41.200 You could have just walked up and like just asked 0:32:41.320 --> 0:32:44.720 what you want the till you can't even talk. I'm 0:32:44.720 --> 0:32:47.840 trying to contract that got my headphones on. This is 0:32:47.880 --> 0:32:50.080 hard enough. I don't want to be here. I want 0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:52.600 to be eating a donut and here you are. Let's 0:32:52.880 --> 0:32:54.560 let's take it out of the bathroom. You and wafflehouse, 0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:57.239 right and you. I won't be at a waffle Man. 0:32:57.840 --> 0:33:02.920 I won't be at I'm trying to ask you if 0:33:02.920 --> 0:33:06.200 do you respond to Jamal? You know, if someone comes up, 0:33:06.240 --> 0:33:08.240 if a fan comes up and they're like, I love you, Jamal, 0:33:08.480 --> 0:33:10.880 I'm that's not a big deal to me. I just 0:33:10.880 --> 0:33:12.360 feel like, Jesse, nice to meet you. But I'm not 0:33:12.440 --> 0:33:16.840 one of these people that's like my name, like it's 0:33:16.880 --> 0:33:19.440 what they know me as and it's about like yesterday 0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:21.280 I saw Mark Paul Gossler and I was like, yo, 0:33:21.440 --> 0:33:23.960 Zach Morris is here. This is what we know that 0:33:24.240 --> 0:33:28.400 as you know what I'm saying, it's it's and also 0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:32.080 these people it's it's love, like they're not disrespecting you. 0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:33.840 You know what I'm saying. Like, if I see mister T, 0:33:34.000 --> 0:33:36.760 that's mister T. That's always mister I don't even know 0:33:36.840 --> 0:33:39.480 it's a real nameless But why do you know Zach's 0:33:39.520 --> 0:33:41.920 real name? You know, he was on NYPD Blue and stuff, 0:33:41.920 --> 0:33:43.880 so I know who he is. But when I see him, 0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:48.320 I'm like, you know, that's Zach Morris. What can I do? 0:33:48.760 --> 0:33:51.080 I'm saying, So you know, it is what it is. 0:33:51.200 --> 0:33:53.960 You still consider yourself an activist to your core. Absolutely 0:33:54.600 --> 0:33:57.440 everything that I do. I can tell about your Wafflehouse response. Yeah, 0:33:59.360 --> 0:34:02.360 not everything that I do. You know, it's not all 0:34:02.440 --> 0:34:04.560 of this is not just for me and the proceeds 0:34:04.600 --> 0:34:07.520 from your album. You're even donating. Some of the proceeds 0:34:07.600 --> 0:34:10.879 of the tour are going to Black Ages Institute, Black 0:34:10.920 --> 0:34:14.960 AGEIDS and Flint Kids, and some stops are even going 0:34:15.040 --> 0:34:18.160 to HRC. So it's just about you know, I've been 0:34:18.239 --> 0:34:22.000 so blessed. I've been so blessed, and I just think that, 0:34:22.719 --> 0:34:25.279 you know, it doesn't stop here and the work doesn't stop. 0:34:25.360 --> 0:34:27.400 If I'm only able to take care of myself and 0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:31.200 I'm only able to take care of like my blood relatives, 0:34:31.360 --> 0:34:34.919 then or what happens after, like what's my legacy something else? 0:34:35.160 --> 0:34:38.560 And I don't need to I don't need to get 0:34:38.640 --> 0:34:41.520 on Instagram or Twitter and announce every time that. That's 0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:44.719 why I will do it silently because it's not. It's 0:34:44.800 --> 0:34:47.200 not something that's done for show. Is something that's done 0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:49.640 because it comes from my heart. And I really genuinely 0:34:49.680 --> 0:34:51.879 mean that, Like I can't just sit by and watch 0:34:52.040 --> 0:34:57.600 bulls happen and not do something, especially with the platform. 0:34:57.640 --> 0:35:00.800 I've been given a very specific platform to represent a 0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:03.880 lot of different groups of people that I represent in 0:35:03.960 --> 0:35:06.759 real life. So for that, I'm not trying to take 0:35:06.840 --> 0:35:09.719 that for granted or take that lightly and just be like, well, 0:35:10.560 --> 0:35:13.160 I got a nice car, I got my mama house. 0:35:13.400 --> 0:35:16.080 Who gives about you? That's not the way that the world. 0:35:16.120 --> 0:35:19.560 My mother, my mother, like we grew up with Angela Davis. 0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:21.359 You know what I'm saying. My mother that was one 0:35:21.400 --> 0:35:23.640 of her friends and mentors. You know what I'm saying. 0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:25.719 Growing up when she was in the Bay Area, she 0:35:26.239 --> 0:35:29.040 marched with Bobby Seals, she marched with Huughey Newton. That's 0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:31.600 who she is, who she was, who she is, and 0:35:32.920 --> 0:35:35.239 I lead with my blackness, you know what I'm saying. 0:35:35.280 --> 0:35:37.719 And for that, I can't sit by and watch what's 0:35:37.760 --> 0:35:41.560 happening that hasn't just suddenly half started happening. It's been 0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:45.000 happening and just act like everything is fine because I'm 0:35:45.040 --> 0:35:47.239 on a Fox show. How did you get into acting? Like, 0:35:47.280 --> 0:35:48.719 what was the first thing that got you? When you 0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:50.399 got a lot of brothers and sisters? So what made 0:35:50.440 --> 0:35:51.640 you say, all right, this is what I want to 0:35:51.680 --> 0:35:54.799 do and a talented family, thank you. When I was little, 0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:56.080 they used to ask me what I wanted to be, 0:35:56.160 --> 0:36:01.360 and I said, Kermit the Frog on Michael Jackson, Michael Michael, Yeah, Kermit, 0:36:01.680 --> 0:36:08.040 Because if Kermit was the Kermit like muppets take Manhattan, 0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:11.560 Kermit like he was the leader of his pack. He 0:36:11.760 --> 0:36:15.400 was nice, everybody liked him. He's sang, he danced, he 0:36:15.520 --> 0:36:18.880 had a heart. You know, he was sensitive. Um he 0:36:19.000 --> 0:36:24.920 SIPs tea. Um. You know, well now he does, you know, 0:36:25.080 --> 0:36:28.080 So it was just I just I love entertainers, and 0:36:28.160 --> 0:36:31.120 I love entertainment, you know, And I feel like I 0:36:31.239 --> 0:36:33.600 found out very early on that I could make people happy. 0:36:34.280 --> 0:36:36.120 I think it also came from like the attention that 0:36:36.160 --> 0:36:37.720 I would get as a kid when I would perform. 0:36:37.880 --> 0:36:39.800 But I also but I think that you kind of 0:36:39.840 --> 0:36:43.120 figure out what your gifts are when you're very young. 0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:45.879 You kind of know what your gifts are. And there's 0:36:45.920 --> 0:36:47.360 never been a time that I ever wanted to do 0:36:47.640 --> 0:36:50.200 anything else. There's never been a time. And I've worked 0:36:50.239 --> 0:36:56.239 every job you could imagine, um real jobs. I've been 0:36:56.280 --> 0:37:00.640 a waiter, I've been a clown at children's parties literally literally, 0:37:01.080 --> 0:37:03.160 and I used to write songs for these little kids. 0:37:03.200 --> 0:37:04.640 They would think that it was original and I was 0:37:04.680 --> 0:37:08.920 just switching them lit names and putting it in. But 0:37:10.440 --> 0:37:13.520 but I was. I worked in retail, I did. I 0:37:13.600 --> 0:37:16.000 worked at a nonprofit named Artist for New South Africa, 0:37:16.360 --> 0:37:19.200 where I raised money for children infected and affected by 0:37:19.320 --> 0:37:22.719 HIV eights in South Africa and in the States. I've 0:37:22.800 --> 0:37:25.879 just been working. There's I have not been unemployed since 0:37:25.920 --> 0:37:28.080 I was four years old, so it's like my whole 0:37:28.160 --> 0:37:31.640 thing was being It's fine to be a struggling artist. 0:37:31.800 --> 0:37:34.160 But I never wanted to be a broke ass artist 0:37:34.239 --> 0:37:37.040 that that couldn't take care of himself. And we just 0:37:37.120 --> 0:37:39.439 shown all the broke ass artists. Nah. I mean, here's 0:37:39.480 --> 0:37:41.960 the thing, don't get me wrong. I was broke as hell. 0:37:42.040 --> 0:37:44.240 Like that moment where you got to you got seventeen 0:37:44.280 --> 0:37:46.400 dollars in your account, you gotta find three to depositis 0:37:46.440 --> 0:37:49.080 so you could take a twenty out. I was there absolutely, 0:37:49.200 --> 0:37:51.759 Like this time five years ago, I was there, but 0:37:51.880 --> 0:37:54.560 I still was supporting myself. I never asked. I've never 0:37:54.640 --> 0:37:57.080 asked anybody for money. I borrowed. I think I borrowed 0:37:57.080 --> 0:37:59.279 sixty dollars from my older brother one time in my life, 0:37:59.760 --> 0:38:02.799 and I just there's nothing wrong with borrowing. There's nothing 0:38:02.880 --> 0:38:04.600 wrong with having people be there for you, because I 0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:07.839 have an incredible support system. But it's about making sure 0:38:07.880 --> 0:38:09.960 that you're holding down your own life, and that's what 0:38:10.120 --> 0:38:12.719 I've always been taught to do. Give me that Kermit 0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:15.400 the Frog impersonation. I know you, come on, I know you, 0:38:15.840 --> 0:38:19.880 I know you got do a strong Michael impression. This 0:38:20.080 --> 0:38:22.399 is it, you, guys, this is it. I don't want 0:38:22.400 --> 0:38:24.719 to hear more about this Angela David's connection because somebody 0:38:24.719 --> 0:38:26.840 asked me yesterday it was like, who is somebody you 0:38:26.920 --> 0:38:29.040 really want to interview? And I said, Angela Davis and 0:38:29.120 --> 0:38:33.000 Judy Bloom. Oh so you actually used to kick it. Yeah, 0:38:33.040 --> 0:38:35.840 I mean still to this day. Like she's just she's 0:38:36.040 --> 0:38:38.880 she's amazing, she's she's got such a heart, and she 0:38:39.760 --> 0:38:42.439 she's the epitome of people trying to take her down 0:38:42.800 --> 0:38:45.680 simply for speaking what is true, you know what I'm saying, 0:38:45.719 --> 0:38:47.560 Like what Reagan did to her and the eight when 0:38:47.600 --> 0:38:50.120 he was governor of California in the seventies. It is 0:38:50.120 --> 0:38:52.200 just like we see all of that and it's just 0:38:52.560 --> 0:38:54.520 it's a cycle that feeds itself, and we're seeing it 0:38:54.600 --> 0:38:57.680 come back around. And she's still around, still talking, still speaking, 0:38:57.760 --> 0:39:00.640 still teaching. Yeah, well, I wonder why her presence is bigger, 0:39:01.239 --> 0:39:02.880 you know what I'm saying. It's almost like the media 0:39:02.920 --> 0:39:05.080 stays away from her own purpose. But I think though 0:39:05.200 --> 0:39:08.600 that the media probably has always stayed away because she's 0:39:08.640 --> 0:39:11.319 a powerful voice. But we haven't stayed away from her. 0:39:11.400 --> 0:39:14.360 We know who she is, you know what. Sometimes this 0:39:14.520 --> 0:39:17.919 is my take on it. Sometimes we don't need all 0:39:17.960 --> 0:39:20.200 of our voices in the media. We need to be 0:39:20.280 --> 0:39:23.400 able to hear them underground. Sometimes sometimes we need to 0:39:23.480 --> 0:39:25.799 hear them speaking the truth so that people can't get 0:39:25.880 --> 0:39:27.680 to their words, you know what I'm saying, So that 0:39:27.800 --> 0:39:30.120 we know, we know how to tap into their words. 0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:32.440 But maybe they don't need it. They don't need that, 0:39:32.600 --> 0:39:34.719 They don't need our treasure all the time. All right, 0:39:34.760 --> 0:39:36.600 we got more with Jesse Smullett. When we come back, 0:39:36.640 --> 0:39:39.320 don't move. It's the breakfast Club, good morning putting. Everybody 0:39:39.480 --> 0:39:43.080 is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we all 0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:47.040 the breakfast club we have from Empire, Jesse Smollett in 0:39:47.080 --> 0:39:49.680 the building, Charlomagne. When Jennifer Lewis was saying, I was like, 0:39:49.719 --> 0:39:51.680 do you think that sometimes I love it too? You 0:39:51.760 --> 0:39:54.400 think sometimes we as black people tell our plans too 0:39:54.520 --> 0:39:57.759 much in public? Yes, that's what we thought. I mean. 0:39:57.800 --> 0:39:59.919 And it's a difficult thing. It's a difficult thing because 0:40:00.000 --> 0:40:01.680 you want to reach the masses you want to reach, 0:40:04.200 --> 0:40:06.240 You want to reach you know, our black and brown 0:40:06.400 --> 0:40:08.520 sisters and brothers like you want us all to be 0:40:08.640 --> 0:40:10.960 able to speak. But at the same time it is 0:40:11.080 --> 0:40:14.919 difficult because somehow what you say can be manipulated through 0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:17.840 the media many times and kind of water down. And 0:40:18.280 --> 0:40:21.960 you know, I've said so many things in interviews, and 0:40:22.040 --> 0:40:24.520 then I read the article and I'm like, so out 0:40:24.560 --> 0:40:27.279 of everything that I said. Y'all chose to make that 0:40:27.480 --> 0:40:30.759 the headline, and y'all chose to y'all chose to cut 0:40:30.840 --> 0:40:33.160 out that. A lot of the media would like to 0:40:33.320 --> 0:40:35.920 continue to talk about the fact that I'm gay versus 0:40:35.960 --> 0:40:38.040 talking about the fact that I'm black, you know what 0:40:38.120 --> 0:40:41.360 I'm saying, because it's easier. It's a for them, certain 0:40:41.600 --> 0:40:46.000 especially for white media. It's nicer to talk about that 0:40:46.760 --> 0:40:49.719 versus talking about the fact that I'm gay, and I 0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:52.560 leave with my blackness. Y'all don't talk about that. You 0:40:52.719 --> 0:40:54.720 don't talk about that. Y'all just want to talk about 0:40:54.800 --> 0:40:58.040 what is safe because you've seen it on Empire. I 0:40:58.160 --> 0:40:59.680 like how you said you lead with your your your 0:40:59.719 --> 0:41:02.600 black because I always wonder about that, like which I 0:41:02.640 --> 0:41:06.080 don't which struggle is more important. I don't know. That's 0:41:06.120 --> 0:41:07.600 a good question. I don't know how to how to 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:09.960 even answer that. I don't. I don't because not the 0:41:10.040 --> 0:41:13.800 one is more important. But at the same time, I 0:41:13.880 --> 0:41:16.319 guess it's maybe it's because you can hide the fact 0:41:16.360 --> 0:41:18.279 that you're exactly Maybe that's what it is. When you 0:41:18.320 --> 0:41:20.320 say blackness, you kind of ain't got no choge. I 0:41:20.320 --> 0:41:22.640 ain't got no choice, know what I'm saying. Like I've 0:41:22.719 --> 0:41:26.360 never been I've never been pulled over by a cop. 0:41:26.840 --> 0:41:29.480 I don't think because I'm gay, Now that would be 0:41:29.520 --> 0:41:31.400 a you know what I'm saying, we need to direct 0:41:31.480 --> 0:41:36.160 that filming. What did that even look like? And I 0:41:36.239 --> 0:41:38.680 don't want to minimize what it is to be like 0:41:38.800 --> 0:41:42.680 the struggle that that the LGBTQ community goes through, because 0:41:42.719 --> 0:41:45.840 I'm a part of that struggle of that community and proudly, 0:41:45.960 --> 0:41:47.759 you know what I'm saying, But it is a thing 0:41:47.960 --> 0:41:51.920 of somehow on paper. And I've said this. I said this. 0:41:52.000 --> 0:41:53.919 I spoke at the GLAD Awards and people were looking 0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:58.000 at me like, please shut up, because I said, after 0:41:58.160 --> 0:42:00.600 marriage equality, after you know it got past it, you 0:42:00.640 --> 0:42:03.840 know everybody could get married. Damn Well, now on paper, 0:42:04.320 --> 0:42:08.320 white gay men are officially free on paper. What do 0:42:08.360 --> 0:42:10.960 you mean, white game in a free on paper? They 0:42:11.000 --> 0:42:14.640 are free as soon as they got the okay to 0:42:14.880 --> 0:42:19.400 get married on paper. Basically everything that they were wanting 0:42:20.000 --> 0:42:23.359 came true. But as a black gay man. You're still 0:42:23.400 --> 0:42:26.920 sitting out here like we're still being shot. I'm still black, 0:42:27.400 --> 0:42:30.440 Like we're still being killed, We're still having you know, 0:42:30.840 --> 0:42:33.480 we're still having this happen to us. So whether I 0:42:34.400 --> 0:42:37.160 am gay or not, I'm still a black man and 0:42:37.280 --> 0:42:40.200 that's happening. You know. One liberty off which is the 0:42:40.239 --> 0:42:43.000 marriage quality, which is so important, which is so important, Like, 0:42:43.080 --> 0:42:46.400 let's make that clear. That's so important. And I'm not again, 0:42:46.440 --> 0:42:50.160 I'm not minimizing the importance of that struggle, because again 0:42:50.200 --> 0:42:51.920 I'm a part of that struggle. But I'm a part 0:42:51.960 --> 0:42:54.399 of so many struggles. You know what I'm saying, It's 0:42:54.440 --> 0:42:57.080 not just one. What do you think the biggest impact 0:42:57.200 --> 0:43:01.040 your character, Jamal has had on the whole America and 0:43:01.360 --> 0:43:03.719 as far as the perception of the LGBT community, I 0:43:03.760 --> 0:43:07.840 would like to believe that it just gave a different voice. 0:43:08.520 --> 0:43:11.280 You know what I'm saying, that it somewhat showed Because 0:43:11.360 --> 0:43:13.800 we're on television. It's not a movie, it's not a 0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:15.960 reality show. It's nothing like that. We're able to have 0:43:16.080 --> 0:43:19.400 more time, We're able to go deeper into a character's 0:43:19.840 --> 0:43:22.040 what a character goes through. You're able to you know, 0:43:22.360 --> 0:43:26.080 maybe learn and appreciate that actor who plays him. You 0:43:26.120 --> 0:43:28.200 know what I'm saying, and what I've gone through, and 0:43:28.400 --> 0:43:31.360 somehow it's I hate to say the word normalized, but 0:43:31.480 --> 0:43:36.319 somehow it's normalized. It's help it's helped normalize who we are. 0:43:36.760 --> 0:43:40.040 That it's not some like let's look at a monkey 0:43:40.080 --> 0:43:42.480 in the zoo type of thing. Let's look at the 0:43:42.680 --> 0:43:46.040 gays live their life, you know what I'm saying. You know, still, 0:43:46.120 --> 0:43:49.160 even five seasons later, we still always remember that first season, 0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:52.239 you know, when Lucius through Jamal and the garbage and 0:43:52.480 --> 0:43:54.920 all of that, that still is something that you know, 0:43:55.080 --> 0:43:58.520 and Lee Daniel talks about his own personal experiences just 0:43:58.680 --> 0:44:00.640 to help people. How can you do that to a child? 0:44:00.760 --> 0:44:02.560 And I think that the best way to get to 0:44:02.680 --> 0:44:05.560 someone is usually through their heart, you know what I'm saying. 0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:08.640 And that's the good thing. We could say what we want. Look, 0:44:08.719 --> 0:44:11.320 we know half a season two of Empire can sucked, 0:44:12.080 --> 0:44:14.719 you know what I'm saying. We know that ship. He's like, wait, 0:44:14.800 --> 0:44:21.359 I was on season but as but at the same time, 0:44:21.520 --> 0:44:27.080 at the same he's like, wait then when the girl 0:44:27.120 --> 0:44:28.880 got killed at the end of the White Girl. That 0:44:29.440 --> 0:44:31.200 was a season that was the beginning of season three. 0:44:31.200 --> 0:44:33.239 Season three weeks back on the end of season two 0:44:33.320 --> 0:44:35.279 got really good. The first couple of episodes of season 0:44:35.400 --> 0:44:38.839 two we kind of started slipping. He started slipping um. 0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:44.879 But oh yeah. I think that the good thing about 0:44:44.960 --> 0:44:47.520 Empire's Empire is able to hold a mirror. Like we're 0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:49.520 not preaching or anything like that. It's not an after 0:44:49.600 --> 0:44:52.000 school special. We're holding a mirror up to people and 0:44:52.080 --> 0:44:55.040 we're saying, yo, just look at yourself, look at yourself. 0:44:55.200 --> 0:44:58.800 Are you lucious? Are you Cookie? Are you Jamal? You Andre? 0:44:58.960 --> 0:45:03.000 Or you? Who are you in this? Addressing mental illness? Absolutely, 0:45:03.520 --> 0:45:08.000 We've We've addressed mental illness. We've addressed homosexuality, we've addressed 0:45:08.360 --> 0:45:12.799 sexual fluidity, We've we've addressed you know, incarceration, mass incarceration, 0:45:12.840 --> 0:45:15.600 what incarceration does to a family. We've addressed all of 0:45:15.640 --> 0:45:17.800 these things. And I think that in many ways, because 0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:23.040 the Empire became such a huge phenomenon that somehow it 0:45:23.280 --> 0:45:27.239 waters down the message and somehow people forget all of 0:45:27.320 --> 0:45:31.080 the incredible messages that are in the show. And because 0:45:31.120 --> 0:45:33.640 it's so successful, you know, you always want to turn 0:45:33.760 --> 0:45:36.040 on something that is extremely successful. You want to be 0:45:36.120 --> 0:45:38.440 like Nah, man, I ain't down with that, you know 0:45:38.440 --> 0:45:41.719 what I'm saying. But it's you know, look deeper. You 0:45:41.760 --> 0:45:43.680 know what I want to ask. You know, how did 0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:45.920 your family deal with with when they found out that 0:45:45.960 --> 0:45:47.839 you were gay. I get a lot of emails all 0:45:47.840 --> 0:45:49.759 the time where it says, yeah, my son wants to 0:45:49.760 --> 0:45:51.200 play with a doll, I don't put the doll down, 0:45:51.239 --> 0:45:53.680 play with Gi Joels, you know, and all my technically 0:45:53.760 --> 0:45:55.920 gioels a dog. Yeah, but you know what I mean, 0:45:56.120 --> 0:45:58.560 Bobby don't or you know, my son wants to wear 0:45:58.719 --> 0:46:01.279 addressed because he sees his mom wearing one, wants to 0:46:01.320 --> 0:46:04.160 win shoes, not to put it down thug wearing. But 0:46:04.280 --> 0:46:06.400 I think that we as a society, they'll put too 0:46:06.520 --> 0:46:10.839 much on sex. I mean, your son might be playing 0:46:10.880 --> 0:46:12.640 with a doll because he's going to grow up and 0:46:12.719 --> 0:46:15.359 be one of the most incredible designers on the face 0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:17.960 of the planet. That doesn't make him gay. Let him 0:46:18.040 --> 0:46:23.839 figure out his shupposed to be. And it's this, it's 0:46:23.880 --> 0:46:26.920 this toxic masculinity. That's why I love the movie Moonlight. 0:46:27.120 --> 0:46:30.319 It wasn't about sexuality. It was about masculinity and all 0:46:30.360 --> 0:46:32.560 of the rules that are put on boys from the 0:46:32.680 --> 0:46:34.920 second that they're born. You know what I'm saying, Like, 0:46:35.280 --> 0:46:39.280 men don't grow up wanting to be homophobic. We're taught 0:46:39.360 --> 0:46:43.239 somehow that homophobia is the way to prove that you're 0:46:43.360 --> 0:46:47.960 not that way, and in actuality, a true person that's 0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:51.000 truly secure as a man and truly secure in his sexuality, 0:46:51.080 --> 0:46:54.400 whatever that may be. It's too busy worrying about his 0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:58.200 own and worrying about who he's loving on to be 0:46:58.280 --> 0:47:01.040 worried about who I ain't. We just ain't. Never seen 0:47:01.200 --> 0:47:03.279 enough gay man whipping somebody ass. When you see a 0:47:03.320 --> 0:47:11.279 gay man whip somebody else, he shot that down his boyfriend. 0:47:11.960 --> 0:47:16.920 I mean, Jamal is the gay Tupac. But don't forget 0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:21.759 on the Michael Kay Williams character. Yeah, Yo, but let's 0:47:21.840 --> 0:47:25.920 not sleep on the wire. To me, the wire is 0:47:26.000 --> 0:47:28.920 what There would be no Jamal Lion if it was 0:47:29.080 --> 0:47:31.920 not for Michael Kay Williams and and the wire. They 0:47:32.040 --> 0:47:36.000 made it easier for us to get on network television. 0:47:36.440 --> 0:47:38.560 They were on cable. They made it easier and they 0:47:38.600 --> 0:47:40.719 softened the blow for us to be able to put someone. 0:47:42.160 --> 0:47:44.359 He just happened to It just happened to be that way, 0:47:44.480 --> 0:47:47.120 and it wasn't any It was what it was. It 0:47:47.280 --> 0:47:48.920 wasn't something that even needs to need it to be 0:47:49.080 --> 0:47:52.000 overly discussed. It was what it was, you know, the 0:47:52.520 --> 0:47:55.160 sole superior man. No should read it. It's a good 0:47:55.440 --> 0:47:56.800 and I think all guys should read it. But it 0:47:56.880 --> 0:48:01.000 just talks talks about tapping into your female divinity. I 0:48:01.080 --> 0:48:05.160 don't have no more female divinity than you do, you 0:48:05.200 --> 0:48:07.400 know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, exactly, you know what 0:48:07.480 --> 0:48:10.640 I'm saying. So it's about it's just about these roles. 0:48:10.840 --> 0:48:14.680 We've come up with all of these bullsh roles that 0:48:14.920 --> 0:48:19.000 don't really exist. We've literally there man made roles that 0:48:19.200 --> 0:48:21.200 do not exist. That's why it's always funny to me 0:48:21.280 --> 0:48:23.880 when people ask me, like, I'm like a relationship that 0:48:24.000 --> 0:48:25.960 I might be, and they'd be like, so, who's the man? 0:48:26.000 --> 0:48:28.320 Who's the woman? I'm like, this is the stupidest question 0:48:28.400 --> 0:48:30.520 I've ever heard. Who's the top of the bottom of 0:48:31.200 --> 0:48:42.160 my God, who's the top of the bottom in your relationship? Bottom? 0:48:47.840 --> 0:48:54.279 He's a verse bottom. Well, we appreciate you for joining us. 0:48:54.880 --> 0:48:57.719 Can you tell to Roger? We said congratulations, definitely. Will 0:48:58.040 --> 0:49:00.440 I just saw her last night yesterday, and the ring 0:49:00.560 --> 0:49:03.120 is beautiful. She's glowing. Man. It's just so nice too 0:49:03.960 --> 0:49:06.480 to see somebody that's able to hold her heart in 0:49:06.560 --> 0:49:08.680 the right way. We got to see. We appreciate you 0:49:08.719 --> 0:49:11.920 appreciate and you can come by anytime. Thank you, alright, 0:49:12.120 --> 0:49:15.719 Jesse smallt congratulation. Thank you. You don't have some of 0:49:15.840 --> 0:49:26.160 my music tour the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor 0:49:26.200 --> 0:49:31.240 Report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. So Angie 0:49:31.320 --> 0:49:34.320 Martinez has a full interview with Jay Coole that's about 0:49:34.320 --> 0:49:37.000 to drop, but in the meantime, she's given us some teasers, 0:49:37.680 --> 0:49:40.719 all right, And one thing that Jay Coole talked about 0:49:40.960 --> 0:49:44.200 was Kanye West. Now, he talked about the conversation that 0:49:44.360 --> 0:49:46.560 he had with Kanye, and here's what he said. Yeah, 0:49:46.600 --> 0:49:48.640 I talked to Yeah, did you not know that picture 0:49:48.760 --> 0:49:50.600 was going up? Of course not yeah, no, no where 0:49:50.719 --> 0:49:52.480 did you make the goal or he made the coal? No, 0:49:52.640 --> 0:49:55.360 he called me. But I would have never posted that 0:49:55.520 --> 0:49:57.279 or like tell him to post that, you know what 0:49:57.280 --> 0:49:59.160 I mean, I didn't. That made me feel a certain 0:49:59.160 --> 0:50:01.040 type of way. I told him that he apologized for 0:50:01.080 --> 0:50:03.040 the Record's not like I'm just saying this right, but 0:50:03.160 --> 0:50:05.279 then I told him, like it felt like you felt 0:50:05.280 --> 0:50:07.839 like you just used my name in that very quick 0:50:07.920 --> 0:50:11.239 conversation for social media and for like to keep your 0:50:11.320 --> 0:50:13.520 thing going whatever you were doing, you know what I mean, 0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:15.759 And like, you know, I just felt like it wasn't 0:50:15.800 --> 0:50:19.080 sincere because of that. Well I will I told y'all 0:50:19.080 --> 0:50:21.719 before that, Kanye says he feels like Jay Cole is 0:50:21.760 --> 0:50:25.120 always dissing him. Actually that they were having a conversation 0:50:25.480 --> 0:50:27.640 We got love and he posted that, Yeah, we actually 0:50:27.680 --> 0:50:29.880 had a conversation about Jay Cole in our interview. That 0:50:30.040 --> 0:50:31.640 was when he told me he feel like Jay Cole's 0:50:31.640 --> 0:50:33.560 always dissing him, But he took that part out. He 0:50:33.640 --> 0:50:37.440 had it to that really okay, okay, all right, And 0:50:37.880 --> 0:50:42.439 here is Jay Coole talking about more conversations with Kanye West. 0:50:42.480 --> 0:50:44.919 Here's what he said. I don't like talking about other people. 0:50:45.120 --> 0:50:48.600 I feel hesitant to make it a go in for 0:50:48.719 --> 0:50:52.239 the public. Yeah, so I tread lightly if possible. But 0:50:52.320 --> 0:50:54.239 the only reason I would even feel comfortable taking it 0:50:54.280 --> 0:50:56.520 any distance because like, yo, I didn't even ask you 0:50:56.640 --> 0:50:58.719 put that out there, and like you put me in this. Yeah. 0:50:58.719 --> 0:51:00.839 And when he called me, he said, y'all, he was like, man, 0:51:00.880 --> 0:51:03.279 I need you to hold me accountable, keep me in check, 0:51:03.360 --> 0:51:06.000 like say whatever you gotta say. I need that. I 0:51:06.120 --> 0:51:09.680 feed off that, Like are you sure you know what 0:51:09.719 --> 0:51:12.239 I mean? Because like I see this a certain way. 0:51:13.080 --> 0:51:15.839 How does he feel uncomfortable talking about other people when 0:51:15.840 --> 0:51:18.399 he made nineteen eighty five and the other record talking 0:51:18.400 --> 0:51:20.319 about Walley and Kanye. I think he means on social 0:51:20.360 --> 0:51:23.360 media he doesn't want to go on social media and 0:51:23.520 --> 0:51:26.800 do things just for attention. It's how I took it. 0:51:27.239 --> 0:51:30.080 So it between making a record and talking about somebody 0:51:30.120 --> 0:51:32.880 and getting attention music his art. He also doesn't do 0:51:32.960 --> 0:51:34.560 a lot of interviews, and a lot of people will 0:51:34.640 --> 0:51:37.320 talk about their personal business in their music, but not 0:51:37.480 --> 0:51:40.239 necessarily tweet about it. Got You, like Jay Z does 0:51:40.280 --> 0:51:42.000 the same thing. He tells a lot of his stuff 0:51:42.000 --> 0:51:44.319 in his music, but he's not necessarily going to take 0:51:44.320 --> 0:51:46.880 it to social media and talk about private conversations, how 0:51:46.960 --> 0:51:49.920 he feels about people, his relationship and I feel like 0:51:50.000 --> 0:51:51.880 Jay Cole is kind of the same way. Got You. 0:51:52.360 --> 0:51:55.120 He expresses himself in that way. Now, another thing that 0:51:55.239 --> 0:51:58.080 he talked about was Cardi B. If you guys remember 0:51:58.120 --> 0:52:00.399 Carti B came on The Breakfast Club and she's about 0:52:00.400 --> 0:52:02.839 the pressure of releasing her debut album. Of course before 0:52:02.840 --> 0:52:05.400 it came out, youn't have this one record and the 0:52:05.520 --> 0:52:07.120 next summer you just out here again. You gotta have 0:52:07.160 --> 0:52:09.479 you gotta keep coming with him. No. I mean, there's 0:52:09.480 --> 0:52:11.040 the thing A lot of people keep telling me, like 0:52:11.120 --> 0:52:13.839 Dann why she only put she only performed that song, dude, 0:52:13.880 --> 0:52:16.520 she only got that one song out, And it's just like, yeah, 0:52:16.560 --> 0:52:18.080 I know, I just put the song out like three 0:52:18.160 --> 0:52:20.520 months ago. Like can I just work the record like 0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:22.560 I got something? But it's like it gotta. Can I 0:52:22.680 --> 0:52:24.879 just put it out when this record just came out, 0:52:25.120 --> 0:52:26.880 I got something for you. I'm gonna drop something in 0:52:26.960 --> 0:52:34.400 October for just damn the album. Just do it the 0:52:34.440 --> 0:52:36.839 whole back. Yeah, just let it go, let it fly. 0:52:37.680 --> 0:52:40.759 What Jakole had this to say about Cardi B when 0:52:40.840 --> 0:52:42.440 you first got back on Twitter. One of the first 0:52:42.480 --> 0:52:44.719 things you did, like big up Cardi. I hope she 0:52:44.800 --> 0:52:46.560 received it right, But my point was like she did 0:52:46.719 --> 0:52:48.600 receive it right. I saw her repost it. Yeah. I 0:52:48.680 --> 0:52:50.320 talked to her in person too, But you know, I 0:52:50.360 --> 0:52:51.960 just feel like people give her so much advice. It 0:52:52.040 --> 0:52:53.720 it's like I didn't know if I was just another 0:52:54.120 --> 0:52:55.480 you know, I don't know her like that, so it's 0:52:55.480 --> 0:52:58.800 also like, yo, man, you don't know She also like, 0:52:58.840 --> 0:53:00.520 who are you to be giving me if But I 0:53:00.600 --> 0:53:03.000 saw an interview and I just seemed like, damn, they 0:53:03.120 --> 0:53:05.440 putting mad pressure on this girl to like try to 0:53:05.520 --> 0:53:07.640 beat herself like she had like the number one song 0:53:07.680 --> 0:53:10.040 in the country is the biggest song last year. And 0:53:10.120 --> 0:53:12.200 it's like people were like, well, what's next, what about 0:53:12.239 --> 0:53:14.040 the album? And it's like I noticed, like the being 0:53:14.120 --> 0:53:16.640 those shoes. I want to just say something that's like 0:53:16.880 --> 0:53:19.840 you already won. No, we weren't putting no pressure on that. 0:53:19.920 --> 0:53:21.440 We were just telling them put the album out. That 0:53:21.520 --> 0:53:23.600 was the whole point. Doesn't have any pressure, just dropped 0:53:23.600 --> 0:53:26.400 the album. Was he's saying, we will put pressure pressure. 0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:33.399 She felt pressure fans, he said the interview that's where 0:53:33.440 --> 0:53:35.200 she talked about it because he tweeted. The tweet was 0:53:35.600 --> 0:53:37.520 also Cardi B I've seen your Breakfast Club and if 0:53:37.520 --> 0:53:39.399 you loved it, don't put all that pressure on your album. 0:53:39.480 --> 0:53:43.759 You already won. Just dropping repeat. I think it's just 0:53:43.880 --> 0:53:48.319 me because no, I don't think you think. I don't 0:53:48.320 --> 0:53:50.200 think he meant the breakfast club. I think he met 0:53:50.239 --> 0:53:54.360 people that person because I felt the same way. I 0:53:54.400 --> 0:53:56.000 was just like your CARDI just dropped the album, like, 0:53:56.040 --> 0:53:58.120 don't worry about topping boat that yellow, just put the album. 0:53:58.120 --> 0:54:00.120 I put the music out now. Angie also asked, I'm 0:54:00.120 --> 0:54:03.120 about breaking all these records for streaming and Spotify and 0:54:03.239 --> 0:54:05.839 all of that, and actually breaking Drake's records. And here's 0:54:05.880 --> 0:54:09.400 what happened. Billboard Records, Spotify. You broke the Spotify record, 0:54:09.880 --> 0:54:13.040 sixty four point five million players on Apple Music, you 0:54:13.160 --> 0:54:17.760 beat Drake's views that held the record before that. Thirty 0:54:17.760 --> 0:54:20.160 six point six million players on Spotify. He beat out. 0:54:20.280 --> 0:54:23.040 I guess also Drake more more life. Do you hear 0:54:23.120 --> 0:54:25.680 from Drake when something like this happens. Yeah, he takes me. 0:54:25.760 --> 0:54:30.359 He says, I hate you him coming for you.

We need to 0:55:24.000 --> 0:55:27.600 talk about borderline dehydration. All right. Okay, we'll get into 0:55:27.640 --> 0:55:29.000 that when we come back.

Yeesh, donkey Today 0:55:57.040 --> 0:55:58.839 from wed to Day made sixteenth goes to a young 0:55:58.880 --> 0:56:03.960 woman from Arizona name Jacqueline Ideas. Okay, what stop talking 0:56:04.000 --> 0:56:06.040 over me, white man. She's thirty one years old and 0:56:06.160 --> 0:56:08.400 was arrested on suspicion of stalking and harassing a man 0:56:08.480 --> 0:56:10.840 she met online. Let me tell you something, man, we 0:56:10.920 --> 0:56:12.880 have all dealt with someone in our lives who just 0:56:13.120 --> 0:56:15.560 wasn't into us the way we were into them. Okay, 0:56:15.640 --> 0:56:18.560 it happens. But I was always taught to, you know, 0:56:18.760 --> 0:56:21.520 never make someone a priority if you only remain that option. Well, 0:56:21.560 --> 0:56:24.319 Jacqueline didn't get that memo at all. Okay. In fact, 0:56:24.400 --> 0:56:26.839 Jacqueline is a harsh reminded to tell us that there 0:56:27.000 --> 0:56:29.320 is levels to thirst. Okay, as humans, we all have 0:56:29.440 --> 0:56:32.279 a basic instinct when it comes to thirst, all right, 0:56:32.320 --> 0:56:34.960 and natural craving for fluids. But that's not the level 0:56:35.000 --> 0:56:38.399 of thirst I'm talking about. I'm talking continuous dehydration. I'm 0:56:38.400 --> 0:56:40.919 talking a deficit of total body water. I'm talking about 0:56:40.960 --> 0:56:43.839 the kind of dehydration that happens when free water lass 0:56:43.880 --> 0:56:46.960 exceeds free water intake. What are the causes of this 0:56:47.120 --> 0:56:51.000 kind of dehydration will Usually it's due to exercise, disease, 0:56:51.120 --> 0:56:55.319 high environmental temperatures, but most commonly caused by a new 0:56:55.400 --> 0:56:58.840 love interest. Okay, a new bay or the prospect of 0:56:58.880 --> 0:57:02.120 a new bay can make the most hydrated hydrated amongst 0:57:02.200 --> 0:57:04.880 us thirsty. All right, And Jacqueline is just another example 0:57:04.920 --> 0:57:07.480 of that. See Jacqueline met a man on a dating website. 0:57:08.040 --> 0:57:09.960 She said they went on a few dates and Jacqueline 0:57:09.960 --> 0:57:12.480 immediately felt like she had met her soul mate. Well, 0:57:13.360 --> 0:57:15.799 here's the thing about that whole soul mate thing. Both 0:57:15.880 --> 0:57:18.320 parties have to feel that way. Okay, if you feel 0:57:18.360 --> 0:57:20.240 like I'm your soul mate and I feel like you 0:57:20.400 --> 0:57:22.960 just some chick I'm smashing for the summer, the fastest 0:57:23.000 --> 0:57:25.040 way to make me moon walk out of this situation 0:57:25.600 --> 0:57:27.840 is to say to me, you're my soul mate. Do 0:57:27.960 --> 0:57:30.440 you realize you can scare a man away with that 0:57:30.600 --> 0:57:32.640 kind of talk too early? Go on a couple of 0:57:32.760 --> 0:57:34.480 dates with a woman, and you know, and then and 0:57:34.560 --> 0:57:36.680 then have that woman tell tell you you want to 0:57:36.760 --> 0:57:40.920 get married, all right? To tell tell that man you 0:57:41.000 --> 0:57:43.760 want to have his baby, right, tell him you feel 0:57:43.800 --> 0:57:45.880 like y'all a soul mate, and then watch that man 0:57:46.000 --> 0:57:48.480 quickly fade away like an avenger after thanking those kids 0:57:48.520 --> 0:57:51.400 all the infinity stones. Okay, well that's clearly what happened 0:57:51.400 --> 0:57:54.360 in this situation, but Jacqueline refused to fade to dust 0:57:54.440 --> 0:57:56.840 without a fight. Let's go to Aisy family dot com 0:57:56.960 --> 0:58:01.040 for the report. Place and threatening man she met online 0:58:01.080 --> 0:58:05.400 after they went on only one date.

And if he doesn't like it, then I'll 0:59:50.360 --> 0:59:53.160 go home and I'll love my exploitment whatever I supposed 0:59:53.160 --> 0:59:56.000 to do. The point of love is to keep giving it. 0:59:56.120 --> 0:59:59.560 That's the math equations. Love equals three point three, which 0:59:59.560 --> 1:00:04.120 isn't fit. Times equals and squared, which is like lightness forever. 1:00:04.760 --> 1:00:06.520 If love was a number, it would be three, so 1:00:06.600 --> 1:00:09.320 it's infinity times like which is also infinity. So it's 1:00:09.360 --> 1:00:12.320 just forward, forever forward. And if you're selfish, you can't 1:00:12.400 --> 1:00:15.240 understand that because you want something in return. He's not 1:00:15.320 --> 1:00:17.720 giving me anything return, And I still love him, anybody. 1:00:17.760 --> 1:00:19.720 That's what love is. That's what the universe is supposed 1:00:19.720 --> 1:00:22.840 to be made of. When you're finding love. Not everything 1:00:23.000 --> 1:00:26.000 is perfect. This was a journey, and I wanted to 1:00:26.080 --> 1:00:29.920 apologize because nobody would ever be more sorry. See, I 1:00:29.960 --> 1:00:33.880 don't understand that's crazy, that deal with that kind of crazy, 1:00:34.400 --> 1:00:36.960 because that kind of crazy didn't just come out of nowhere, 1:00:37.200 --> 1:00:39.840 all right, It had to be a sign of that 1:00:40.080 --> 1:00:42.760 type of crazy. When y'all first started kicking it with 1:00:42.840 --> 1:00:44.880 each other. I got a homeboy right now, who's dealing 1:00:44.960 --> 1:00:48.760 with some crazy. In early, early, early on in the relationship, 1:00:48.840 --> 1:00:52.600 he found out that this young woman left her children 1:00:53.120 --> 1:00:59.440 in her crib by himself so she could go check 1:00:59.520 --> 1:01:01.800 on her the dude at the club, right, What isn't 1:01:01.840 --> 1:01:05.160 that a sign of crazy? How old were the kids? Yeah, toddlers, 1:01:05.840 --> 1:01:08.600 that's crazy, That's what I'm saying. So when you when 1:01:08.680 --> 1:01:10.920 they show you that in the beginning and then it 1:01:11.160 --> 1:01:14.640 escalates the things even worse, that's kind of your fault 1:01:14.840 --> 1:01:18.360 because you had to see this type of crazy kids 1:01:18.480 --> 1:01:21.920 this summer. Remember, there's a fine line between interests and stalking, 1:01:22.200 --> 1:01:24.800 and let's just all stay on the right side of that. Okay, 1:01:25.440 --> 1:01:28.640 some donkey the days just sell themselves. Please give Jacqueline 1:01:28.800 --> 1:01:34.840 I just the biggest he hall.

She says 1:01:42.200 --> 1:01:44.040 she's gonna go back to that. I felt like I 1:01:44.120 --> 1:01:45.840 meant my soul meet and everything was just the way 1:01:45.880 --> 1:01:47.440 it was, and I thought we would just do what 1:01:47.520 --> 1:01:49.280 everybody else did and we would just like get married 1:01:49.320 --> 1:01:51.080 and everything would be fine, but that's not what happened. 1:01:51.400 --> 1:01:54.200 So you're not angry with him? No, Oh my god, no, 1:01:54.320 --> 1:01:56.080 I love him so much. I just want to love 1:01:56.160 --> 1:01:58.360 him so much, said, And if he doesn't like it, 1:01:58.480 --> 1:02:00.960 then I'll go home and I'll of my ex boyfriend. 1:02:03.360 --> 1:02:04.840 Now from the ex boyfriend, I gotta beat up the 1:02:04.840 --> 1:02:08.320 new boyfriend.

So you got engaged and now he has kids. 1:03:06.200 --> 1:03:08.440 We've had custody of her sons for five years now, 1:03:08.840 --> 1:03:11.600 and I guess just me being not being able to 1:03:11.880 --> 1:03:14.640 have that one alone with my child. It's like I 1:03:14.800 --> 1:03:17.360 always brighteness for putting my life out of palls or 1:03:17.760 --> 1:03:19.000 you know, not being able to do what I have 1:03:19.080 --> 1:03:21.920 to do because oh having to help him, and it 1:03:22.120 --> 1:03:24.320 caused a lot of strain in our relationship. And I 1:03:24.360 --> 1:03:26.720 don't want to get married if this conversation is going 1:03:26.800 --> 1:03:29.040 to continue to be brought up, you know. Okay, So 1:03:29.160 --> 1:03:31.440 you feel like you've been neglecting your own responsibilities with 1:03:31.520 --> 1:03:33.919 your daughter because you've been dealing with his family. Yeah, 1:03:34.000 --> 1:03:37.240 well we have responsibility because we have custody of the center. 1:03:37.440 --> 1:03:39.480 I just feel like my daughter's life was cut in 1:03:39.560 --> 1:03:41.920 half or put off palls, you know, and I'm just 1:03:42.120 --> 1:03:44.040 I just missed those. I don't know what he's like 1:03:44.200 --> 1:03:47.720 to have your own child, you know. That those feelings. 1:03:47.920 --> 1:03:51.360 But you guys are about to be a blended family now, yes, 1:03:51.640 --> 1:03:54.520 So it's his responsibility to love your daughter like that 1:03:54.720 --> 1:03:58.080 is his daughter and his son is your son. Now, yeah, 1:03:58.520 --> 1:04:00.400 you can't be looking at it like that's his kid 1:04:00.440 --> 1:04:03.160 and this is my kid. These are both of your children, 1:04:03.480 --> 1:04:06.160 and I don't it's just a fact. The love that 1:04:06.240 --> 1:04:08.520 I have from my daughter I'm trying to give him, 1:04:08.560 --> 1:04:10.880 but it's just so hot. And it's been eight years 1:04:10.960 --> 1:04:13.120 y'all have been together, yes, and we've had his son 1:04:13.240 --> 1:04:15.640 for five years. Okay, I mean, first of all, you 1:04:15.720 --> 1:04:18.520 have to think about, you know, the difficulty for his son. 1:04:18.640 --> 1:04:22.200 Why doesn't the mom have custody? She knows six other children, 1:04:22.320 --> 1:04:24.760 six baby fathers, right, Well, I found out about this 1:04:24.840 --> 1:04:27.080 little boy. I immediately said, you know, we need to 1:04:27.160 --> 1:04:29.440 do something, you know, because I don't want to be 1:04:29.520 --> 1:04:31.840 the mom that has the baby seat because she want 1:04:31.840 --> 1:04:34.320 to go to the club every weekend. And listen, think 1:04:34.360 --> 1:04:36.880 about the extra love that his son must need because 1:04:37.040 --> 1:04:39.760 his mom was irresponsible, and what kind of talk that 1:04:39.800 --> 1:04:42.880 could take on him in life, my daughter, that shouldn't 1:04:42.880 --> 1:04:44.960 take away from your child though, you should be able 1:04:45.000 --> 1:04:47.080 to love both of these children. They both live in 1:04:47.120 --> 1:04:49.960 the home with you. Guys, that's his sister, that's her brother, 1:04:50.360 --> 1:04:52.760 and those that's your son and daughter, and that's his 1:04:52.880 --> 1:04:55.040 son and daughter. And you have to stop looking at 1:04:55.080 --> 1:04:57.360 it like this is my child and listen. If there's 1:04:57.400 --> 1:04:59.080 things that you need to do with just you and 1:04:59.160 --> 1:05:00.920 your daughter, you should able to take time to do 1:05:01.040 --> 1:05:05.600 those things. But it's just like I can't. Just like 1:05:05.720 --> 1:05:07.480 he should be bonding with his son, you should be 1:05:07.560 --> 1:05:09.480 bonding with your daughter and spend some time with his 1:05:09.600 --> 1:05:12.360 son too. You know he does need that maternal figure 1:05:12.440 --> 1:05:15.760 in his life. But stop separating whose kid is who's 1:05:15.840 --> 1:05:19.640 These are your children together. So if your child, even 1:05:19.720 --> 1:05:22.720 if these kids were both both of your blood children, 1:05:22.960 --> 1:05:25.200 when one of your kids needs some extra attention, they're 1:05:25.240 --> 1:05:27.640 gonna get it from you, right, You don't want them to. 1:05:27.640 --> 1:05:31.000 Tal is so close off though, he's gonna open up. Well, 1:05:31.080 --> 1:05:33.400 you know why he's closed off. He's a child. Look 1:05:33.440 --> 1:05:35.840 at what he's gone through, you know, having You don't 1:05:35.880 --> 1:05:37.880 know what kind of trauma he's suffered after being in 1:05:37.960 --> 1:05:41.040 the home, you know with the other mother. Really he 1:05:41.160 --> 1:05:43.200 needs your extra lift and he needs your daughter's love 1:05:43.240 --> 1:05:45.560 as well. You all need to be loving him. If 1:05:45.600 --> 1:05:48.160 you feel like he's closed off, make sure you keep 1:05:48.200 --> 1:05:51.280 those lines of communication open with him, because it can't 1:05:51.280 --> 1:05:53.120 be easy for him. It's probably thinks he has no 1:05:53.240 --> 1:05:55.040 idea why he feels the way that he does or 1:05:55.080 --> 1:05:57.680 why he acts like he does. Right, and because a 1:05:57.760 --> 1:06:00.200 lot trips because he doesn't talk to his day talk 1:06:00.320 --> 1:06:04.560 to me, right, And I just I don't As a parent, 1:06:04.720 --> 1:06:06.520 you should love the fact that he feels like he 1:06:06.600 --> 1:06:09.680 can talk to you. I do, I do, I really do. 1:06:10.000 --> 1:06:11.960 But I want him to have the relationship with his mom. 1:06:12.080 --> 1:06:14.959 But because the dad and the mom aren't being able 1:06:15.000 --> 1:06:17.959 to cope here, it's stressful for me. You right, because 1:06:17.960 --> 1:06:19.800 when I do want to be free, you know, his 1:06:19.920 --> 1:06:21.560 dad's like, well, I don't want him to go nowhere 1:06:21.600 --> 1:06:24.120 because I don't know nobody. You know, if you cant 1:06:24.160 --> 1:06:26.280 erection with his mom, we'll be able to do that. 1:06:26.440 --> 1:06:29.280 He needs to probably take some parenting classes because he 1:06:29.360 --> 1:06:30.760 needs to know what he needs to do as a 1:06:30.840 --> 1:06:32.920 father and step up to the plate. But all you 1:06:33.000 --> 1:06:35.120 can do is give as much love to these children 1:06:35.200 --> 1:06:39.920 as you possibly have to give them. Okay, just remember 1:06:40.000 --> 1:06:42.520 these are innocent children. You love them both. Those are 1:06:42.600 --> 1:06:46.520 both your kids right right? Thank you? Okay, you're welcome. 1:06:46.600 --> 1:06:49.280 Good luck. I know it can be really stressful sometimes, 1:06:49.360 --> 1:06:52.600 but you have a great responsibility. Ask ye ain't Andred 1:06:52.680 --> 1:06:54.400 five five one on five one if you got a 1:06:54.480 --> 1:06:57.040 question for ye Coler. Now it's the breakfast Clocal Morning Morning. 1:06:57.080 --> 1:07:00.800 Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye shallow me the guy 1:07:00.880 --> 1:07:02.920 we all the breakfast club with in the middle of 1:07:03.040 --> 1:07:06.760 ask yee, Hello, who's this Frank? What's your question for you? 1:07:07.080 --> 1:07:10.200 I'm calling. Let's see, I got a girlfriend who cheated 1:07:10.240 --> 1:07:13.760 on me multiple times, multiple times. Okay, but that's still 1:07:13.800 --> 1:07:17.640 your girlfriend. Yeah, she's still my girlfriend, and I really 1:07:17.720 --> 1:07:19.760 love it, but I just don't look at her the 1:07:19.840 --> 1:07:22.880 same and I don't know how to get over you 1:07:22.960 --> 1:07:25.840 know what I'm saying because she know me well, you really, 1:07:26.400 --> 1:07:29.680 every time I think about think about another man's penis 1:07:30.800 --> 1:07:34.680 exactly what happened and her mouth O. Well, you really 1:07:34.800 --> 1:07:37.880 love her, right, but that doesn't mean she's necessarily the 1:07:38.040 --> 1:07:41.000 right person for you. Now, let's figure this out. You 1:07:41.000 --> 1:07:44.400 said she cheated on you multiple times with multiple people, yes, 1:07:44.960 --> 1:07:46.960 and what is what is she saying about this? Does 1:07:47.000 --> 1:07:50.920 she want to even be with you? Okay? Do you 1:07:50.960 --> 1:07:54.240 believe that she's still cheating on you. Um no, not 1:07:54.400 --> 1:07:57.600 even not at the time. But she has her moments. 1:07:58.400 --> 1:08:02.520 She's a whole. Now, what reason did she give to 1:08:02.600 --> 1:08:04.440 you when you found out? Why did she tell you 1:08:04.560 --> 1:08:07.920 that she cheated so many times? One time it was 1:08:08.040 --> 1:08:12.680 drunk and I wasn't there. She doesn't seem like she's 1:08:12.680 --> 1:08:15.400 ready to be in a relationship. So basically what you're saying, 1:08:16.880 --> 1:08:18.759 I'll say this because a lot of people have stayed 1:08:18.800 --> 1:08:21.000 and guys can say whatever they want, but a lot 1:08:21.080 --> 1:08:22.840 of women have stayed with men who have cheated. A 1:08:22.880 --> 1:08:24.719 lot of men have stayed with women who have cheated. 1:08:24.920 --> 1:08:27.719 But in order for that relationship to work, her behavior 1:08:27.840 --> 1:08:31.360 has to change. Has her behavior changed? No, Okay, well, 1:08:31.360 --> 1:08:33.880 then she doesn't seem like she's making an effort. Because 1:08:33.960 --> 1:08:35.920 when you cheat on somebody, you have to try to 1:08:36.080 --> 1:08:37.880 gain their trust back. If you want to be with 1:08:38.040 --> 1:08:40.400 that person, you have to show that you've improved, that 1:08:40.439 --> 1:08:42.880 you've made these differences in your life, and you want 1:08:42.880 --> 1:08:45.400 to be with that person because you're willing to sacrifice 1:08:45.479 --> 1:08:47.600 whatever it is that you have to You're willing to 1:08:47.800 --> 1:08:50.920 suffer whatever discipline and punishment you have to suffer in 1:08:51.080 --> 1:08:53.400 order to prove that you are worthy of being with 1:08:53.520 --> 1:08:57.360 that person. And she's not doing that. All right, all right, 1:08:57.720 --> 1:08:59.800 I'm sorry to hear that man call that whole right 1:08:59.840 --> 1:09:03.160 now and tell hole man that's his girl. Still, that's 1:09:03.200 --> 1:09:07.000 a whole. There you go, there, you go, there, you 1:09:07.160 --> 1:09:11.000 go there. You know that's what I'm like, backstret chest, 1:09:11.280 --> 1:09:13.400 stop that because when women, when mention on women, you 1:09:13.520 --> 1:09:17.080 be encouraging to women to stay. I do what exactly 1:09:17.240 --> 1:09:19.280 I've stayed. Listen, I've stayed with my woman and she 1:09:19.479 --> 1:09:23.720 cheated on me. But he said multipole times right, multiple 1:09:24.479 --> 1:09:26.439 when you're even ask him what she's doing now, he said, 1:09:26.520 --> 1:09:30.599 probably cheating. Dumped that whole. He's a little strong, all right, 1:09:30.720 --> 1:09:33.519 ask eight hundred five eighty five one on five one. Now, 1:09:33.680 --> 1:09:35.559 we got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about 1:09:35.600 --> 1:09:38.599 Michael Jordan and the docuseries that's on the way about him. 1:09:38.760 --> 1:09:40.599 All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. 1:09:40.680 --> 1:09:43.640 Keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast 1:09:43.720 --> 1:09:56.639 clubs just oh gosh. Gorum reports with Angela's report Breakfast Club.

It features 1:10:03.800 --> 1:10:07.880 Charlie xcx, bb REXA and Cardi b. Now Here is 1:10:07.880 --> 1:10:09.600 the hook of the song, in case you haven't heard it. 1:10:09.960 --> 1:10:20.200 Sometimes I just want to kiss it. I just want 1:10:20.240 --> 1:10:23.200 to kill girls, girls, girls. Right now here is Rita 1:10:23.320 --> 1:10:25.120 or his verse, I just want to kill you guys back. 1:10:25.680 --> 1:10:27.800 We learn a lot of how to do it like, 1:10:27.920 --> 1:10:31.920 we do it like we wanna. We just know. We 1:10:32.120 --> 1:10:37.599 just know. I am excited, I'm over minded, I'm fifty 1:10:37.680 --> 1:10:40.240 fifty and I'm never gonna hat it. You should know 1:10:41.479 --> 1:10:44.400 all right now here it is Cardi Ba's verse, be 1:10:44.520 --> 1:10:47.200 a listic just for one night one. You just wanna 1:10:47.280 --> 1:10:50.280 have funny, happy fun strike you hum mey semi name, 1:10:50.600 --> 1:10:53.800 my name, my name, It says good just running up 1:10:53.800 --> 1:10:56.360 your songs right up with the snap to your lipsop 1:10:56.439 --> 1:10:59.360 fucking rocks we never heard of you can swing gunning 1:10:59.479 --> 1:11:04.280 up about them to bust myself. God, I'm so sexyself, 1:11:04.439 --> 1:11:10.800 but still you bitch, but this up tonight, I don't 1:11:10.840 --> 1:11:16.920 want to go. So. The song is about girls kissing girls, 1:11:17.040 --> 1:11:19.439 girls liking girls. Yeah, now, Katy Perry did it better. 1:11:19.640 --> 1:11:23.400 Now it was offensive to the LGBTQ community. Now Killanie 1:11:23.400 --> 1:11:25.240 posted hate to be that guy, but there were many 1:11:25.280 --> 1:11:28.559 awkward slurs, quotes and moments that were like word word 1:11:28.640 --> 1:11:30.519 and Killannie said, and don't make this personal. I have 1:11:30.560 --> 1:11:32.560 an incredible song out with one of the artists and 1:11:32.640 --> 1:11:34.280 would love to work with the other three as well. 1:11:34.640 --> 1:11:37.439 They were harmful lyrics period love y'all. I missed it 1:11:37.520 --> 1:11:41.160 like one. Well, the problem is this that they were 1:11:41.320 --> 1:11:44.200 um and the problem is they saying that that song 1:11:45.160 --> 1:11:48.080 is basically it's not fun to make a decision like 1:11:48.360 --> 1:11:50.360 some I don't need to drink wine to kiss girls, 1:11:50.360 --> 1:11:52.120 because that was in the hook. She said, I love 1:11:52.160 --> 1:11:55.479 women my entire life. In other words, it's not a 1:11:55.600 --> 1:11:57.840 fun thing just to say, okay, I want to be 1:11:58.479 --> 1:12:01.360 you know, kiss girls. Sometimes to kids, guys. Sometimes people 1:12:01.400 --> 1:12:06.920 were offended. Not rita Or has since apologized. I'm sorry 1:12:07.000 --> 1:12:09.920 how he expressed myself and my song has hurt anyone. 1:12:10.000 --> 1:12:13.960 I would never intentionally cause harm to other LGBTQ people 1:12:14.080 --> 1:12:17.320 or anyone. Looking forward, I hope that continuing to express 1:12:17.439 --> 1:12:20.320 myself through my art will empower my fans to feel 1:12:20.320 --> 1:12:22.160 it's proud of themselves, as I'm learning to feel about 1:12:22.160 --> 1:12:24.760 who I am, and you know, she just didn't mean 1:12:24.800 --> 1:12:27.560 any harm. She said it was representing her truth and 1:12:27.680 --> 1:12:30.400 an accurate account of a very real and honest experience 1:12:30.479 --> 1:12:32.679 that she has had. Now. Cardi B also has posted 1:12:32.960 --> 1:12:35.519 on Twitter, I know I have used words before that 1:12:35.680 --> 1:12:38.759 I wasn't aware that they are offensive to the LGBT community. 1:12:38.760 --> 1:12:41.720 I apologized for that. Not everybody knows the correct terms 1:12:41.760 --> 1:12:43.720 to use. I learned and I stopped using it. So 1:12:43.840 --> 1:12:46.040 this is this is a mom of the incredible level 1:12:46.080 --> 1:12:48.320 of reaching because I don't hear the words unless you 1:12:48.520 --> 1:12:50.280 unless we didn't play him just now. Yeah, I didn't 1:12:50.280 --> 1:12:51.880 hear the words it, but I thought Cardi B has 1:12:51.880 --> 1:12:54.559 said before that she likes girls and she's into girls. Yeah, 1:12:54.600 --> 1:12:57.400 she has said that. I guess people were offended because 1:12:57.479 --> 1:12:59.920 they were saying things like, you know, sometimes I just 1:13:00.080 --> 1:13:03.160 want to drink wine and kiss girls and you know, 1:13:03.360 --> 1:13:05.720 just like a I guess it's for people. It's a 1:13:05.800 --> 1:13:08.760 lifestyle choice. It's not like a fun thing where I 1:13:08.880 --> 1:13:11.160 like Katy Perry, I kissed the girl and I like it. Okay, 1:13:11.320 --> 1:13:13.559 that record was way better than the record that read 1:13:13.720 --> 1:13:16.439 or I can't tell people what not to get offended back. 1:13:16.439 --> 1:13:19.920 I can tell people what they like. And this offended you. 1:13:20.240 --> 1:13:22.160 I don't know what to say. I mean, I think 1:13:22.160 --> 1:13:24.120 that's the most intention is read or record gonna get 1:13:24.280 --> 1:13:31.200 what a waste of a CARDI feature that record, Charlie features. 1:13:33.360 --> 1:13:35.880 I just hit a bunch of waste of features. Record. 1:13:35.960 --> 1:13:38.720 Don't worry read? Are you still pretty all right? Netflix 1:13:38.840 --> 1:13:41.759 and ESPN had partnered up to do a Michael Jordan 1:13:41.920 --> 1:13:45.599 docuseries is called The Last Dance. It's going to chronicle 1:13:45.640 --> 1:13:48.240 the simultaneous rise of Jordan and the Chicago Bulls and 1:13:48.680 --> 1:13:51.639 how popular the NBA was during the nineties. And Jordan 1:13:51.800 --> 1:13:54.280 is participating in this as well as other people who 1:13:54.320 --> 1:13:57.400 were very key figures from the Bulls championship teams. I'm 1:13:57.439 --> 1:13:59.400 here for that. There's going to be more than five 1:13:59.520 --> 1:14:03.120 hundred hours of never before seen footage that should be 1:14:03.160 --> 1:14:06.880 pretty interesting, plus a commentary from dozens of other sports 1:14:07.000 --> 1:14:09.519 luminaries should be pretty exciting. It's always weird watching those 1:14:09.600 --> 1:14:12.160 documentaries when you were actually you actually were there. You 1:14:12.200 --> 1:14:14.120 know what I'm saying, Like, that's all error, Yeah, you 1:14:14.160 --> 1:14:16.160 know what I mean. But it's gonna be footage you've 1:14:16.160 --> 1:14:19.000 never seen before. So I'm excited about that should be interesting. 1:14:19.040 --> 1:14:21.920 It's directed by Jason here. He did the Fab five. Also, 1:14:22.000 --> 1:14:24.759 I'd rather than put out some sneakers I've never seen before. Okay, 1:14:25.360 --> 1:14:28.439 all right, Megan Marco, we're talking about this royal wedding 1:14:28.479 --> 1:14:30.800 that's going down this weekend on Saturday, and there's all 1:14:30.880 --> 1:14:33.439 kinds of drama with her dad selling pictures to the 1:14:33.479 --> 1:14:35.960 Papa Razzie and he said now that he is not 1:14:36.080 --> 1:14:37.920 going to go to the wedding.

Megan Marco's dad, Thomas Marco, He's been 1:14:40.560 --> 1:14:44.280 having serious chest pains and doctors are performing tests on him. 1:14:44.320 --> 1:14:46.560 They're saying that his heart was seriously damaged after he 1:14:46.640 --> 1:14:48.920 had a heart attack a week ago. So at first 1:14:48.960 --> 1:14:50.320 he said he wasn't going to go to the wedding. 1:14:50.400 --> 1:14:52.000 Now he said he does want to, but it looks 1:14:52.040 --> 1:14:53.920 like even if he does want to, he may not 1:14:54.000 --> 1:14:56.200 be able to because he's going to be in the hospital. 1:14:56.800 --> 1:14:59.400 So just giving you an update on that royal wedding 1:14:59.439 --> 1:15:01.679 that's going to be all over the place this weekend. 1:15:02.120 --> 1:15:04.080 When Cardion Off say getting married, man, I keep telling 1:15:04.160 --> 1:15:07.439 y'all that's the real royal one.
