Speaker 2: five one to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club.

Speaker 3: Everybody's DJ n V. CHARLAMAGNEA God.
Speaker 4: We are the Breakfast Club, Jesse Larry is he hey
Speaker 4: now if you just join us. We were talking about
Speaker 4: Fat Joe. He was turning yesterday for something he said
Speaker 4: on his live about Uh. I guess people that still
Speaker 4: want to be rappers at you know, older ages.
Speaker 5: Yeah, your man says he's back and he doesn't have
Speaker 5: a deal. Meanie, not a dollar coming in, not a show,
Speaker 5: not nothing going on.
Speaker 6: There is a problem.
Speaker 5: It's called in the jaw hope you made. This has
Speaker 5: never changed. Some guys be.
Speaker 7: Like, yo, I gotta get a regular jaw bro.
Speaker 5: You gotta get jaw and you got kids, and you
Speaker 5: got this girl. They got apartment and got it off
Speaker 5: every day. You got to pay some bills in the
Speaker 5: dollar in the dream that balked could have struck.
Speaker 2: You just said nothing wrong, absolutely positively right now, you
Speaker 2: said nothing wrong. In my first book, Black Privilege, the
Speaker 2: New York Times bestseller Black Privilege, I have a chapter
Speaker 2: called f your Dreams when they are not your dream
Speaker 2: because a lot of times, especially when you've black, the
Speaker 2: things you gravitate towards the entertainment and sports, but those
Speaker 2: aren't the things we should actually be doing. We're just
Speaker 2: doing it because we see them working for somebody else.
Speaker 2: So what I tell people is either quit and find
Speaker 2: something else to do, or understand it's one hundred and
Speaker 2: sixty eight hours in a week.
Speaker 1: That's more than enough time to deal with.
Speaker 2: Your reality by getting the job, and you got time
Speaker 2: to go chase your dreams.
Speaker 4: I think that the problem with this society is is
Speaker 4: people feel like getting a job is bad. Yeah, to
Speaker 4: studying a job is wrong. And I think that's the
Speaker 4: dumbest and stupidest thing I've ever heard. Yes, you could
Speaker 4: be a rap that rapper, you could be a producer.
Speaker 4: There's so many different things that people could be out there, entrepreneurs,
Speaker 4: and there's nothing wrong with having a job until that
Speaker 4: that goal that you want or that dream that you
Speaker 4: want takes off. There's nothing wrong with it. There's been
Speaker 4: many people. I mean, even if you look at some
Speaker 4: of your successful rappers, right you look at metha Man.
Speaker 4: We see the story with metha Man worked on the
Speaker 4: Staten Island Ferry and until.
Speaker 3: He got his rap career. Rough we see people that
Speaker 3: worked at all kid cut.
Speaker 4: He worked at the clothing store downtown in the village
Speaker 4: until his rap career took off.
Speaker 3: Also worked until they got their stuff together.
Speaker 2: And also to people be shaming y'all, some of y'all
Speaker 2: be trying thinking y'all shaming job y'all actually shaming careers. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, because y'all y'all be trying
Speaker 2: to clown people for having a career that pays them
Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars.
Speaker 1: I mean, so what are you talking about?
Speaker 6: It is the worst thing ever.
Speaker 8: I mean, I actually have even with being an influenza
Speaker 8: like I had to. I worked like I was working
Speaker 8: making videos. I got fired from jobs making videos, you
Speaker 8: know what I mean, then go to another job and
Speaker 8: until I got on wild'n Out and then and then I.
Speaker 6: Had to quit.
Speaker 9: But I just.

Speaker 8: quite make it to the more attician side.
Speaker 3: He mean, I just went in there.

Speaker 5: You got to pay some bills and a dollar and
Speaker 5: the dream that buck it bought the bottle could have
Speaker 5: struck the lotto.
Speaker 9: Nah.
Speaker 2: No one lie was told in order in order to
Speaker 2: properly chase your dreams. You got to deal with your reality.
Speaker 2: And there's a there's one hundred and sixty eight hours
Speaker 2: in a week. Even if you work forty hours a week, right,
Speaker 2: you still got one hundred and twenty eight hours to
Speaker 2: do everything else you want to do. So you're dealing
Speaker 2: with your reality. But you still got more than enough time.
Speaker 6: To chase your dreams with ours, did y'all see acrimony?
Speaker 8: Acrimony is a solid parme movie with Taraji pins And
Speaker 8: she had a husband and he had a dream to
Speaker 8: like create some big thing like the pursuit of happiness.
Speaker 8: Member he was trying to make that thing or whatever,
Speaker 8: but he had a battery. He was trying to create
Speaker 8: a battery, and it took him years and years and years,
Speaker 8: and he kept using all hard money to do it,
Speaker 8: like he was like taking advantage of him, but he
Speaker 8: still loved or whatever, like you know. And she had
Speaker 8: she had got money from my mother died, and he
Speaker 8: cleaned out her whole bank account and then he ended
Speaker 8: up She ended up leaving him, so his dream hit
Speaker 8: as soon as she left him good and then he
Speaker 8: ended up with somebody else, that's right, and wow, Okay,
Speaker 8: so he she stuck by him until this dream, but
Speaker 8: he would not get a job.
Speaker 3: That's the thingire so God became.
Speaker 8: But he even paid up, He paid up back for everything,
Speaker 8: but she was left there like damn, Yo, I I
Speaker 8: really put you through all, Like I helped you my
Speaker 8: finance from my mother died, Like I put up my house.
Speaker 8: I'm not even able to have kids because you know,
Speaker 8: that was some other stuff in the marriage to happen.
Speaker 8: But like, yo, and now you're you're this billionaire, you're married,
Speaker 8: your dream took ten years to pop off, and you're
Speaker 8: out there reaping all this.
Speaker 1: You know, you gave up on me. I didn't give
Speaker 1: up on myself.
Speaker 2: So being that you gave up on me, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: give you back everything you put in. But I'm going
Speaker 2: to live my life because I need people that's going
Speaker 2: to be with me all the way through.
Speaker 1: She didn't see it all the way through.
Speaker 3: Wow, I don't know necessari ways. Looking at that, I
Speaker 3: would say that you.
Speaker 6: I don't agree with him.
Speaker 4: I think I think everybody out there needs dreams, whatever
Speaker 4: that dream is it. Sometimes your dreams can change, and
Speaker 4: I think that's what keeps people alive. And I think
Speaker 4: that's what keeps the energy flowing. Like for me, you know,
Speaker 4: you have a dream of being a DJ, then the
Speaker 4: dream of being on radio, then the dream of being
Speaker 4: on an album, and then the car show became a dream,
Speaker 4: and this became a dream. But now my dreams are
Speaker 4: my kids like me and I seeing my kids successful,
Speaker 4: making sure that you know, when they graduate college, I'm
Speaker 4: able to you know, make sure teach them how to
Speaker 4: purchase their first home.
Speaker 3: And those are my dreams.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: Dreams never change.
Speaker 2: And that's why even when it comes to entertainment, That's
Speaker 2: why I always tell people, man, make sure that's what
Speaker 2: it is you want to do, because a lot of
Speaker 2: times people only chase entertainment because they see it working
Speaker 2: for other people. That everybody want to wrap. Everybody got
Speaker 2: a podcast. You know what I'm saying, But what is
Speaker 2: it you're here to actually do?
Speaker 6: But that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: That's why in your book I think is wrong because
Speaker 8: it's not If your dream is f somebody else's dream,
Speaker 8: it ain't your dream to begin with.
Speaker 1: That's what you.
Speaker 2: Dream, if your dream, if it's not your dream, Because
Speaker 2: a lot of times we see things working for somebody else,
Speaker 2: like I might people might look at Jess and be like,
Speaker 2: I want to be a stand up comic. Correct, that's
Speaker 2: not your dream. That's not what you're here to do.
Speaker 2: That's what Jess is here to do. They might look
Speaker 2: at us and say they want to be radio personality. No,
Speaker 2: that's not what you're here to do. You might hear it.
Speaker 1: Do something else, you know, find out what you're here
Speaker 1: to do.
Speaker 3: Hello, who's this?
Speaker 7: My name Isiah Philly. Besides, I think you you should
Speaker 7: never give up on your dream, but you just got
Speaker 7: to take care of your life, your dream, hearing yourself
Speaker 7: from living life and growing. And I think that's when
Speaker 7: you gotta start flipping lane put on the back burner
Speaker 7: at your time, you know, out there playing and use
Speaker 7: whatever you're making money nine to five to provide for
Speaker 7: your dream. And eventually I'm gonna take over. You know
Speaker 7: what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Because if you don't do what your reality, your
Speaker 2: dream will become a nightmare. Dreams a nightmare is Philly.
Speaker 2: You see what I just did.
Speaker 9: And what's going on?
Speaker 11: Man, it's baby and I go by DJ Sable.
