Speaker 1: front page news. What we're talking about, Well, let's talk
Speaker 1: about this Florida cando that collapsed the building, and we'll
Speaker 1: give you an update on how many people they have
Speaker 1: confirmed are dead and how many people are missing. Really sad.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Go on, Hey, hey, hey, Borning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news. Now. Over the
Speaker 1: weekend NBA Sunday, the Bucks beat the Hawks one thirteen,
Speaker 1: one h two. Now, they said Trey Young got injured.
Speaker 1: They said he didn't leave the game. He tried to
Speaker 1: hold it out. Buddy, he wasn't the same. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: had thirty five points, but the Bucks did when they
Speaker 1: lead the series two to one. Now, I said Bucks
Speaker 1: in six. But if ty Trey Young is hurting anyway,
Speaker 1: shape or form, Bucks in five. All right, for what
Speaker 1: else we got? Ye, Well, let's talk about that condo
Speaker 1: building that collapsed in Florida and the coastal town of
Speaker 1: Serf Side, Florida. Families are waiting for news right now
Speaker 1: about their loved ones. So far, nine people are dead,
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty two people are unaccounted for, and
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty four people are accounted for. In
Speaker 1: that collapse of the Champlain Tower South As of Sunday night,
Speaker 1: the missing people are from at least nine different countries,
Speaker 1: including six Latin American countries, different faith communities. There's rescuers
Speaker 1: from Israel that have come in. Rescuers from Mexico are
Speaker 1: expected to arrive today. They were able to carve out
Speaker 1: trenches and contain a deep rooted fire and they've been
Speaker 1: trying to pull victims out as crews are using all
Speaker 1: kinds of equipment to locate the people who are missing.
Speaker 1: They're also using DNA to identify some of the victims.
Speaker 1: They said, it hasn't been easy, but they have to
Speaker 1: rely on that. They've been getting DNA samples from family members,
Speaker 1: so everybody's participated and provided that so they can do
Speaker 1: rapid DNA testing on site for bodies now while rescuers
Speaker 1: are continuing their efforts. They said there's new details about
Speaker 1: the integrity of that structure. There was an engineering report
Speaker 1: from more than two years ago with significant cracks and
Speaker 1: breaks in the building. They said, we are deeply troubled
Speaker 1: by this building collapsed and are working closely with the
Speaker 1: investigating authorities to understand why this structure failed. They also
Speaker 1: said The developers of the Miami Condo Tower were once
Speaker 1: accused of paying off local officials to get permits for
Speaker 1: the site. It needed fifteen million dollars in repairs to
Speaker 1: bring it to code, according to a new report, and
Speaker 1: so they're investigating that as well. It was also undergoing
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars in renovations to pass a required forty
Speaker 1: years certification when it collapsed. You know, it was built
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty one, and so that's what's happening. I
Speaker 1: know a lot of us are going through things in
Speaker 1: our lives, but a lot of us need to thank
Speaker 1: God we're not going through that. I wouldn't want to.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to be an individual who was in
Speaker 1: that condo when it collapsed. And I wouldn't want to
Speaker 1: be a family member, a friend wondering if my people's
Speaker 1: are allowed dad, or what's happening Like that's a different
Speaker 1: level of trauma. So I'm sending healing energy to everybody
Speaker 1: involved in that situation, because that's horrible. The first victim
Speaker 1: was identified Friday at Stacey Faing fifty four. I remember
Speaker 1: the little boy who was pulled out from the rubble alive,
Speaker 1: and they couldn't find He was trying to find his
Speaker 1: mom and she was still missing. That was yeah, whatever, yea,
Speaker 1: somebody failed that building. Somebody failed those people in that building.
Speaker 1: They have agencies and people are supposed to go around
Speaker 1: from building the building every year to check the everything
Speaker 1: or the building, and the fact that it was in
Speaker 1: that bad condition that they didn't get everybody out is
Speaker 1: troubling to me. And is there enough money to go
Speaker 1: around when it comes to compensation for those families and
Speaker 1: everybody else, right, because this has got to be a
Speaker 1: multi billion dollar type of situation. Right. I'm sure he
Speaker 1: has insurance, but I can't see covering it all at
Speaker 1: not at all. And I wonder what insurance cover And
Speaker 1: knowing that, you know, he was getting warnings about the
Speaker 1: building and he knew the building wasn't up to part,
Speaker 1: but he didn't do anything about it, I wondered what
Speaker 1: insurance even covered it. That's true? All right, Well that
Speaker 1: is your front page news, all right, get it off

Speaker 1: Come on, you are like I don't trust you now either, No, no,
Speaker 1: my whole oh my god, SA straighten up. Okay, but
Speaker 1: it sounds like you need to address those issues, and
Speaker 1: that's gonna get to the heart of all the other

Speaker 1: no you don't, No, that'd be hard. Or she can
Speaker 1: name the baby whatever she wants. Me baby, I know
Speaker 1: you're used to sing that all right. Now. Another thing
Speaker 1: that happened and Bee was getting the tea on that
Speaker 1: red carpet, and he spoke to little Kim. Here's what
Speaker 1: she said. Now I have to ask, right, not gonna
Speaker 1: say who against, but would you do a versus? Yes?
Speaker 1: You would do it? Yes? Oh all right? Is there
Speaker 1: anybody that you would do it again? So are you
Speaker 1: just ready for anybody? Nick Nikki? Really I would love
Speaker 1: to see that. Yes, me too, Okay, we're not mad
Speaker 1: at that. Yeah, I mean I hope that does happen.
Speaker 1: I think that would be a wonderful verses. I was surprised.
Speaker 1: I was maybe they've been having conversations already. No, I asked,
Speaker 1: they haven't had any conversations. I definitely asked after. I
Speaker 1: was like, did y'all have y'all spoken? She was like no,
Speaker 1: but I just thought for the culture. She was like, musically,
Speaker 1: I think that would be great and I would love
Speaker 1: to see that, Kim Nikki. I think so. It almost
Speaker 1: feels like it'll end up being a generational thing to
Speaker 1: some people. But if you're a certain age, like you know,
Speaker 1: and you saw both of their waves, I feel like
Speaker 1: you'll appreciate it more. If you're young and all you
Speaker 1: know is Nikki, then you may not get it. But
Speaker 1: if you you know, you forty two like I am,
Speaker 1: you'll appreciate both because you saw both ways. Yeah, absolutely
Speaker 1: and hardcore coming up. For me, that was one of
Speaker 1: my favorite albums to this day. I could play that
Speaker 1: We Got Your Money on guys. Let's let's see right now,
Speaker 1: Nikki Kim, who are you going with? Man? I gotta
Speaker 1: sit down and go through their whole list because Nikki.
Speaker 1: First of all, Nikki's albums amazing, and then she got
Speaker 1: a lot of guest appearances. But then we can't forget
Speaker 1: that Little Kim was also part of Junior Mafia, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and she hasn't. I gotta go
Speaker 1: through it. We got money, you know, it's it's it'll
Speaker 1: be a good bet a shot. I'm not easy. That's
Speaker 1: that's that's that's not it. That's not an easy one.
Speaker 1: And that's a hard one because, like you said, it's
Speaker 1: like different times, like a different time period. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, my my, my, my fortiness makes me
Speaker 1: lean towards Kim even though you know I love I
Speaker 1: love Nikki too. But you know, but I would just
Speaker 1: love to celebrate musically both of them, Like I think
Speaker 1: that would be dope to say celebration that reason. It
Speaker 1: would be a dope celebration. But if I had to
Speaker 1: lean twenty songs, twenty songs, think, I'm I think I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with Kimberly Jones from Brooklyn. Twenty songs. All right,
Speaker 1: but nobody really loses in first Nobody nobody losing. Now,
Speaker 1: other great moments little Nazex's performance, and you know, at
Speaker 1: the end of his performance he shared a long, passionate
Speaker 1: kiss with one of his dancers, and did he post
Speaker 1: a little nas eggs? Did that be fearless? All right? Now,
Speaker 1: Queen Latifa got the Lifetime Achievement Award, and here's what
Speaker 1: you had to say on stage about her female mcs.
Speaker 1: I wanted to celebrate us because I know together we
Speaker 1: stand stronger than when we tear each other apart. Not
Speaker 1: seen enough of that, So respect to all the female
Speaker 1: mcs on the stage tonight. I'm gonna get off this stage.

Speaker 1: Let's get in some front page news now. In sports,
Speaker 1: last night, the Bucks beat the Hawks one thirteen, one
Speaker 1: oh two. They lead the series two to one. Now,
Speaker 1: Trey Young got injured. He did come back in the game,
Speaker 1: but it just he just wasn't the same. That's right.
Speaker 1: And I said Bucks in six. If Trey Young has heard,
Speaker 1: it'll be Bucks in five and drop on a clue.
Speaker 1: Bombs with Chris Middleton. Okay to eight four three zone,
Speaker 1: the low Country zone, Chalton South Carolina zone. He had
Speaker 1: thirty eight last night, twenty in the fourth quarter. Looked
Speaker 1: like a damn video game out there. Goodness all right, Now,
Speaker 1: what else we got, yea, Well, let's talk about Derek Schouven.
Speaker 1: He was sentence to twenty two and a half years
Speaker 1: for the death for killing George Floyd, and the sentence
Speaker 1: actually according to this who'll have to serve two thirds
Speaker 1: of his sentence or fifteen years, and he'll be eligible
Speaker 1: for supervised release for the remaining seven and a half years.
Speaker 1: So let's discuss. Gianna Floyd, who is George Floyd's daughter,
Speaker 1: spoke at the sentencing. Well, I asked, avived him all
Speaker 1: the time accent, How damn my dad get hurt? Do
Speaker 1: you wish that he was still here with us? Yeah?
Speaker 1: He through his spirit. Yes, yes, If you could say
Speaker 1: anything to your daddy right now, what would it be?
Speaker 1: It will be I miss you and I love you
Speaker 1: all right. In addition, George Floyd's brother, Terrence Floyd, spoke,
Speaker 1: I wanted to know from the man himself, why what
Speaker 1: was going through your head when you had your knee
Speaker 1: on my brother's neck, when you knew that he posed
Speaker 1: no threat he had he was handcuffed. Why are you
Speaker 1: at least get up? And we'll have for me and
Speaker 1: my family. We seek a massive maximum penalty because if
Speaker 1: it was us, it wouldn't be no case. It would
Speaker 1: have been open and shut. We'd have been under the
Speaker 1: jail for murdering somebody, so we ask for that same penalty. Now,
Speaker 1: Derek Chauvin's mother, Carolyn Polenti, actually spoke. My son is
Speaker 1: a good man. He has a big heart, and he
Speaker 1: always has put others before his own. I believe a
Speaker 1: lengthy sentence will not serve Derek well. When you sentenced
Speaker 1: my son, he will also be sentencing me. I will
Speaker 1: not be able to see Derek, talk to him on
Speaker 1: the phone, or give him or special hug. Plus the
Speaker 1: fact that when he is released, his father and I
Speaker 1: most likely will not be here. I mean living a
Speaker 1: mother gonna with you to the end. When you see
Speaker 1: a person's mother give up on him, that trust that
Speaker 1: person is a special piece of pig pieces. So that
Speaker 1: to say, he had eighteen prior complaints against him before
Speaker 1: kneeling on George Floyd's neck and killing him, and he
Speaker 1: got a body. That's not that's not the first time
Speaker 1: he killed somebody on the job. I don't know how
Speaker 1: great and Derek Schovin himself spoke also at his sentencing.
Speaker 1: This time. Due to some additional vegal matters at hand,
Speaker 1: I'm not able to give a full formal statement at
Speaker 1: this time. But for briefly, theole I want to give
Speaker 1: my condulsis of the Floyd family. Um, there's gonna be
Speaker 1: some other information in the future that would be of interest,
Speaker 1: and uh, I hope things will give you some some
Speaker 1: peace of mind. Get I mean, listen, he got the
Speaker 1: sentence that white male privilege and police privilege get you.
Speaker 1: You know, when you kill a black person in this country,
Speaker 1: twenty two twenty two and a half years is a
Speaker 1: long time, but fifteen for a murder a whole body.
Speaker 1: Ask yourself if you can see a black man doing
Speaker 1: that to a white man in this country and not
Speaker 1: getting permanently he placed into the foundation of a prison
Speaker 1: cell forever. Okay, all right, Well that is your front
Speaker 1: page news. And again we do want to always send
Speaker 1: out our condolences to George Floyd's family and friends. And
Speaker 1: I know it's not easy to have to relive this
Speaker 1: all the time, or even to see this sentence that
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like it's strong enough for what happened. But
Speaker 1: that's your front page news. All right. Well, let's open
Speaker 1: up the phone lines eight hundred five eight five one
Speaker 1: five one. Derek Charvin got twenty two and a half
Speaker 1: years now with good behavior and time serve. It looks
Speaker 1: like he'll be doing what fourteen years fifteen days supervised
Speaker 1: release for the remaining seven and a half. All right,
Speaker 1: so what are your thoughts? How do you feel about it?
Speaker 1: Let's open up the phone lines. Let's just have a conversation.
Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. Let's
Speaker 1: talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. It's topic time called eight hundred five eight
Speaker 1: five one five one to join it to the discussion
Speaker 1: with the Breakfast Club. Talk about it morning. Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us, we're talking
Speaker 1: about Derek Charvin. Now he was sentenced to twenty two
Speaker 1: and a half years. With time serve and good behavior,
Speaker 1: he could just do fifteen years. So we're asking what
Speaker 1: are your thoughts? Eight hundred five eight five one on
Speaker 1: five one. Let's start in the room. Yeah, what are
Speaker 1: your thoughts? Well, I think my expectations it did exceed
Speaker 1: that just because we haven't seen this even happened. This
Speaker 1: is actually the longest sentence that's ever been given to
Speaker 1: a white police officer. For killing a black person ever,
Speaker 1: and so it could have been thirty years. That would
Speaker 1: have been the maximum. But I would have loved to
Speaker 1: see that. But I will tell you I didn't expect
Speaker 1: much so that, but it should have been more expected.
Speaker 1: Sen they wasn't gonna let I didn't expect that much.
Speaker 1: I didn't think they weren't gonna sentence h but I
Speaker 1: didn't expect them to give him that myself, the longest
Speaker 1: sentence they've ever given. It absolutely would have had to,
Speaker 1: especially after the year that we had last year and
Speaker 1: some of that we had of civil unrest. They if
Speaker 1: they would have did anything less than twenty something years,
Speaker 1: it would have been their recommendation. Was going to be
Speaker 1: between fifteen and twenty five was what they anticipated. And
Speaker 1: I was like, they better not just say fifteen, but
Speaker 1: a lot more. Though I expected a lot more because
Speaker 1: we all know people that's been in jail for a
Speaker 1: lot longer for short crimes. We know people in jail
Speaker 1: who who had transported drugs and got thirty years. We
Speaker 1: know people in jail that's done you know, uh fraud
Speaker 1: and got twenty years. We know plenty of white police
Speaker 1: officers they got no time or they got minimal time
Speaker 1: for killing a black Yeah, but didn't have high expectations. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you never happened before. Yeah, but times is different,
Speaker 1: and this case was very unique. I mean, it's the
Speaker 1: first time we've seen somebody, you know, put their knee
Speaker 1: on someone's neck for nine minutes and some change at
Speaker 1: a time when all of us were home because of
Speaker 1: the pandemic, like the war, the eyes of the world
Speaker 1: was on this case. They weren't. They couldn't just you know,
Speaker 1: give that man ten years, fifteen years or nothing and
Speaker 1: keeping moving. Not not, not with this one. I honestly
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna get the max. I mean, with
Speaker 1: everything going on, like you said, I thought he was
Speaker 1: gonna get the max. I was surprised with twenty two
Speaker 1: and a half years. I mean, listen, there's nothing I
Speaker 1: can say that hasn't already been said about this situation.
Speaker 1: Twenty two and a half years is a long time,
Speaker 1: but it's not long enough for a murder, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And like I said earlier, I ask yourself,
Speaker 1: if you can see a black man doing that to
Speaker 1: a white man in this country and not getting you know,
Speaker 1: permanently literally put in the foundation of the jail, like
Speaker 1: like when you commit a crime like this in America,
Speaker 1: if you black, they literally make you a part of
Speaker 1: the prison, like you're never coming home. But if you
Speaker 1: think about it, he's forty five years now, right, he's
Speaker 1: at sixty. He'll be out. He still gotta if he's
Speaker 1: could be twenty years of his life left to do
Speaker 1: whatever he wants to do. That's crazy. If he survives
Speaker 1: in prison, they're not gonna let They're not gonna let
Speaker 1: that man. They're not gonna let them kill that man.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just said, some protect him. I
Speaker 1: don't have to kill survive, they'll protect him. But now
Speaker 1: sixteen and what happens he'll come out and then can
Speaker 1: he write about Can he do what Zimmerman did and
Speaker 1: sell all types of things like Zimmerman was doing it?
Speaker 1: Can he profit off of this? I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: they say he can't necessarily profit exactly off it, but
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's a way where he'll get to write
Speaker 1: his story or something. He should be under the jail.
Speaker 1: He definitely should be under the jail, but he is
Speaker 1: being awarded the privileges that a white male and a
Speaker 1: police officer gets in this country. People were upset with
Speaker 1: his mother, but I mean, that's his mom. Mom. Did
Speaker 1: they think his mom is gonna be like no, throw
Speaker 1: him under them? Is gonna ride today? Mom? Man, let's
Speaker 1: go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? How are
Speaker 1: you doing all? My name is Donnie. Hey, Donnie, what
Speaker 1: do you think about Derek Charvin getting fifteen years or
Speaker 1: twenty two years? The twenty two? I saw a former
Speaker 1: law enforcement officer, Um, this is necessary because we as
Speaker 1: officers sometimes think we're above the law. I feel like
Speaker 1: this might actually be a positive movement towards the right
Speaker 1: direction that would see police start acting in the in
Speaker 1: the right in the right way. I wouldn't need Yeah,
Speaker 1: go ahead, And I was gonna say I would agree
Speaker 1: with you, man, But you know, look at all the
Speaker 1: circumstances that surrounded this case. You know, all cases aren't
Speaker 1: like that, All cases aren't called on video, all cases
Speaker 1: don't cause you know, protesting the streets. So I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's a lot of circumstances that went
Speaker 1: into him getting at that time, agreed, I understand. Like me,
Speaker 1: I'm still hesitant too as well. I'm just happy that
Speaker 1: for once, finally we've seen a white officer get convicted
Speaker 1: and actually get some years in prison? True? Or are
Speaker 1: actually killing a black person? True? Is it? Is it
Speaker 1: enough years? No? I honestly don't think. But at least
Speaker 1: we got something. Yeah. I don't like feeling like that
Speaker 1: about a situation, uh that that you know, there should
Speaker 1: be consequences though, like that's just that should be the norm. Agree,
Speaker 1: it should be the norm. But unfortunately, we're living in
Speaker 1: a world where police always were above the law. So
Speaker 1: this has to change. And I hopefully this is the
Speaker 1: concrete case that we can use in the future. I
Speaker 1: hope so right. I don't I doubt it, but I
Speaker 1: hope so alright now too. But I hope though, because
Speaker 1: let me think about all the police killers we've seen
Speaker 1: since George Floyd, you know what I mean, So clearly
Speaker 1: their minds stayed out the change. But we'll see, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, you got sentenced, we'll see, all right, Well,
Speaker 1: thank you, Rabel, all right, well eight hundred five eight
Speaker 1: five one oh five one. If he just joined us,
Speaker 1: we're talking about Derek schauv and he was sent this
Speaker 1: to twenty two and a half years with good time
Speaker 1: and time served. You'll probably serve fifteen years. What are
Speaker 1: your thoughts? Let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning. Topic time on the phone called eight hundred
Speaker 1: five eight five one oh five one to join it
Speaker 1: to the discussion with the Breakfast club. Talk about it morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is stej Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club that if he just joined us.
Speaker 1: We're talking Derek Chauvin. Now he was sent this to
Speaker 1: what ye he was sent this to twenty two and
Speaker 1: a half years and he'll have to serve fifteen and
Speaker 1: then the rest he can do with supervised release. All right,
Speaker 1: so we're asking what are your thoughts? How you feeling?
Speaker 1: Let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? Heyde?
Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning. I just wanted to speak on it.
Speaker 1: Um that I have two brothers that did twenty years
Speaker 1: and present for robberies where no one were injured or hurt. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, he had definitely should be doing more time.
Speaker 1: I have enough. The oldest brother was sent to New
Speaker 1: York after he did his twenty years to another three years.
Speaker 1: Still no one was hurt. You know, I feel like
Speaker 1: they did little or nothing of giving that man twenty
Speaker 1: two years on the flip side, when they let him
Speaker 1: speak to the family, my nephew was killed and his
Speaker 1: murderer went to address of the judge immediately stopped that
Speaker 1: you speak to us. You shouldn't speak to the family,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, but I mean, listen, you're not telling us
Speaker 1: anything that we don't know. There are clearly two different
Speaker 1: justice systems in America, and Derek Chauvin benefited from being
Speaker 1: a white male who had police privilege as well as
Speaker 1: this is what it is. Hopefully the protect the tustody
Speaker 1: with I'm shirts will be something happening. Don't wish that
Speaker 1: on him. Okay, all right, all right, you can thank you,
Speaker 1: don't wish it. All right? Hello, who's this? It's Jamal?
Speaker 1: What's up? Man? First of all, goome on a nerd
Speaker 1: Baddy King. Yeah, man, we all that's that's not what
Speaker 1: we all expected. You got what we all expected. You'll
Speaker 1: still get out and live life, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: still have his wife to live and hopefully when he
Speaker 1: get you out, somebody in the Floyd family is waiting
Speaker 1: on him and to pick him off, and they still out. Listen,
Speaker 1: my brother, listen, we're not gonna do that. Okay. All
Speaker 1: we're gonna say is we hope that Derek Chauvin gets
Speaker 1: everything he deserves. That's it, and that's a bullet today.
Speaker 1: I didn't say all of that, sir. I don't know
Speaker 1: what he deserved. I don't want to nobody from George
Speaker 1: Blas family to risk their own freedom either. Well I
Speaker 1: ain't you know. I'm just saying, you know, a hard
Speaker 1: hit man or something. Blessings to you came sending you
Speaker 1: healing energy this morning, on this fine monthday. Lord have murder.
Speaker 1: I mean I get it. I get the anger. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this my name? Uh? Charlotte Bay has still something
Speaker 1: when he was talking about Derek Cousin that if it
Speaker 1: were a black man, they wouldn't they would be thrown
Speaker 1: under the deal. And I'm a living, a living situation
Speaker 1: like that my father has in the jail the twenty
Speaker 1: seven years twenty and it's exactly case, exact same thing
Speaker 1: it was. Uh, he's not My dad wasn't right, he
Speaker 1: was all wrong in the situation. But this man is
Speaker 1: getting considered for a public situation to be be free again.
Speaker 1: That's not right. Yeah, for a murder. For the fact
Speaker 1: that George Floyd Is is never coming home ever again.
Speaker 1: You know, said my dad, My dad was wrong, and
Speaker 1: he did until this entire time, never once. If he
Speaker 1: is considered foot role, he'd be fifty four years old.
Speaker 1: By four years old. Damn you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So at least make the crime making punishment fifty crime. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean listen, man, like I said earlier. Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: nothing we can say that hasn't already been said about
Speaker 1: this situation. There's Northern Angle. Derek Chavin got twenty two
Speaker 1: and a half years for a murder. We know that's
Speaker 1: not right, but that's what happens when you're a white
Speaker 1: male and you got police privilege. That's it. That's why
Speaker 1: when you said that, I wanted to call so at
Speaker 1: least the people that hear your station in the mordency,
Speaker 1: at least hear the other side of what happens, because
Speaker 1: if my dad might as well have been dead, I've
Speaker 1: grown up without him. Damn, I'm a time you got,
Speaker 1: howm a time you got? Told him? Uh, fifty four?
Speaker 1: The life for a murder roles old by the time
Speaker 1: when he committed a murder, Yeah, committer, he committed a murder,
Speaker 1: robbery and assault. How old was he? Sixteen? He was sixteen? Wow? Wow, wow,
Speaker 1: I have I have a cousin of blocks up winding,
Speaker 1: sixteen years old. The situation was massing to I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie. But if they can reconsider the stand for freedom,
Speaker 1: that should give everybody a chance for christ. Right. Wow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's tough, brother, Thank you, thank you for shure your story. Brother.
Speaker 1: Ye man, I mean it's always tough when kids are involved, man,
Speaker 1: because we know kids, you know, are not thinking screat
Speaker 1: their brains aren't even developed, you know, correctly. Who knows
Speaker 1: it might have been on drugs, whatever it was. So
Speaker 1: when you see a sixteen year make a mistake like
Speaker 1: that and they lose their whole life, yes, put that
Speaker 1: in perspective to somebody like Derek Chovan who took a life,
Speaker 1: but only I have to do fifteen years. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: what's the moral little story? I don't think there is one.
Speaker 1: We know, we know what this is. It's America goodness, curcious.
Speaker 1: All right, Well we got rumors on the way, yes,
Speaker 1: and let's talk about bow Wow versus soldier boy. You know,

Speaker 1: that for her and you just see her smile and
Speaker 1: everything you work hard for. It just makes you feel.
Speaker 1: But it's no manual to this thing. Man. It's literally

Speaker 1: pretty much started on time too. It was just a
Speaker 1: little bit late, right. I saw Drake was in the comments.
Speaker 1: He said, Drake, he should have hit me. I would
Speaker 1: have popped out for this. On God, Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: mad about Soldier for that. There's no way you don't
Speaker 1: reach out to Drake and ask him to come out
Speaker 1: before we made it. Now. In addition to that, Soldier
Speaker 1: Boy was doing some things that was really annoying. Bow
Speaker 1: while it felt like like he did two songs in
Speaker 1: a row to make it clap, and then he did
Speaker 1: the remix with Nicki Minajo. You take a bow jake
Speaker 1: ahead of what the forty but take us looking little
Speaker 1: man was challenge, don't worry travel to the Soldier Boy.
Speaker 1: He actually played make it Clap three times because he
Speaker 1: bought French out to do it too, Soldier Boy making
Speaker 1: him so because it should be like a time limit.
Speaker 1: But now I was like, and you can't be playing
Speaker 1: like songs back to back to bad. But it's funny.
Speaker 1: He was just doing what he wanted. He didn't play
Speaker 1: him back to back. Though he played that song then
Speaker 1: he would come back to make it. I thought it
Speaker 1: was dope because Soldier Boy understood this signment in the
Speaker 1: assignment is this is all entertainment, right. He was just
Speaker 1: out there putting on the show. He performing, but he's
Speaker 1: like Babwa hasn't at leased any music in a while,
Speaker 1: so you know he's at the gate was doing to
Speaker 1: make it clap and then he did the Nicki Minaj's
Speaker 1: Virtus has never heard before, and then he had French
Speaker 1: Montana come and do it live. I mean a lot
Speaker 1: of soldiers music just aged better than Bawd's music. But
Speaker 1: what I realized about Bible Wild's music, it brings out
Speaker 1: such a sense of nostalgia. And these kids who grew
Speaker 1: up on BAA, like these kids who was going to
Speaker 1: the screen toys and stuff like that, like they loved
Speaker 1: these records. And then Soldier Boy did that dunk and
Speaker 1: then he did the Nicki minaj back to back. That
Speaker 1: was really making bow out so annoyed. It was funny.
Speaker 1: And then Bawa actually played Soldier Boys rant at one
Speaker 1: point during his over there, and that was pretty funny too.
Speaker 1: It really shut Yeah, don't you keep going the private
Speaker 1: school you did. I wasn't really high school. I got
Speaker 1: kicked on school. I was at the turn school I was.
Speaker 1: I was at by the way out that that transition
Speaker 1: was phenomenal. Envy used to be a DJ. So you played,
Speaker 1: you played, you played Duncan, didn't do the itty biddy.
Speaker 1: That's great, that's a great What do you call that
Speaker 1: a transition? Right? That is a transition. That's phenomenal. All right. Now,
Speaker 1: another surprise was Romeo came out. It's the first time
Speaker 1: in twenty years at and Romeo shared the same stage,
Speaker 1: so the boy brought him out as a guest something.
Speaker 1: Wanting to tell you this. For twenty years my first song,
Speaker 1: my baby, I put you on my song. The world
Speaker 1: put us against each other, but you to Michael Jordan,
Speaker 1: rock every era of Michael Jordan, a Kobe and a Lebron.

Speaker 1: You need your roses while you smell them. Me. I
Speaker 1: was Kobe where I didn't have to be the most talented.
Speaker 1: If I'm gonna work my ass off, I know my purpose.
Speaker 1: And Soldier, you was a lebronovo everywhere you came, and
Speaker 1: you was just the innovator. You switched it up. You
Speaker 1: deserve your roses too, man, it was so nice he is.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a very well raised young man. Flew
Speaker 1: to the middle. Sou Bou bought out three six Mafia, right,
Speaker 1: but he doesn't have a song with him? Or was
Speaker 1: I confused because he didn't do a verse? Yes, he
Speaker 1: did do a verse. He's on Diverse and he did
Speaker 1: a verse on that twist to my body inside the side.
Speaker 1: I didn't know he was on that record either. But uh, Marion,
Speaker 1: out Marion, but out you mean dere Butt. The Brady
Speaker 1: bought out a parchise Boys play from the franchise Boys Boys.
Speaker 1: Why room Me not on the Millennium tool. Shouldn't that
Speaker 1: be an obvious inclusion? I don't know. Maybe maybe he
Speaker 1: don't want to do it, but yeah, I thought that
Speaker 1: will be all right? Well that is your rumor reports.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss ye Charlomagne. Who you giving
Speaker 1: that donket? You know, man, attention is the worst drug
Speaker 1: known to man. We'll talk about it four after the hour,
Speaker 1: all right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: Go morning, get the breakfast Club. Hey, it's Angela yee.
Speaker 1: Don't let weak care hold you back. Carol's daughters got
Speaker 1: his strength collection supports here as it gets longer for here.
Speaker 1: That's fifteen times stronger after one use. Available at carol'sdoor
Speaker 1: dot com and your local retailer. It's the Donkey Charlomne
Speaker 1: Devil Breakfast Club. Wow. Donkey Today from Monday, June twenty
Speaker 1: eight goes to a young lady who is currently on
Speaker 1: the run right now because, like so many other people
Speaker 1: in this world, she is addicted to the drug called attention, or,
Speaker 1: as they say in France, attention on okay, attens now.
Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about the Tour de France. Okay,
Speaker 1: it was on Saturday night, but it was too many
Speaker 1: black people doing brilliant black things this weekend for me
Speaker 1: to pay attention. I was watching the Javante Davis fight.
Speaker 1: I watched the soldier boy versus by wile I was
Speaker 1: watching h Chris Paul get the one win away from
Speaker 1: his first NBA Finals. Not to mention, my oldest daughter
Speaker 1: turned thirteen this weekend, so I was not paying attention
Speaker 1: to a bunch of French folks on bicycleles. But when
Speaker 1: you see a video of all those French folks on
Speaker 1: bicycles crashing looking like that picture of the French fry
Speaker 1: that's building Meek mills lap while he was sitting pool side,
Speaker 1: then I pay attention. Okay, may that made me stop
Speaker 1: that at least see what happened. So I watched the video,
Speaker 1: and I watched the woman step in front of a
Speaker 1: pack of races holding a cardboard sign up so it
Speaker 1: could be caught on TV. And then this happened. Let's
Speaker 1: go to NBC Sports for the report. Please, how many
Speaker 1: people are gonna get back up? Oh my goodness, may
Speaker 1: one fan has done something that has created absolute havoc.
Speaker 1: It was the shign that the rider in front hitch
Speaker 1: and that is the result. And it was just a
Speaker 1: domino effect. When the riders are that nervous, you're smacked
Speaker 1: in there like like sardines and there's nowhere to go.
Speaker 1: So if you're sitting anywhere behind Tony Martin into his left,
Speaker 1: most likely you're gonna go down. You really don't have
Speaker 1: the chance. Broad its supernarrow. You see us crash there,
Speaker 1: and a domino effect just spreads it all the way
Speaker 1: across and closes this road down. So the guys on
Speaker 1: the back, along with the ditch on the right and
Speaker 1: left side of the road, there's no place to go.
Speaker 1: You just have to go right into the pile. You're
Speaker 1: either going to be held up or worse, you're gonna crash.
Speaker 1: My producer just informed me that all writers aren't Friendship
Speaker 1: takes place in France. Its writers from all over the world.
Speaker 1: Way to get in the way of a good joke, Dan,
Speaker 1: But anyway towards de France. Organizers are going to suit
Speaker 1: a woman who caused this huge crash. They said they
Speaker 1: are suing her to show the tiny minority of people
Speaker 1: who do this don't spoil it for everyone. Basically, they're
Speaker 1: about to make an example out of this young lady,
Speaker 1: but they have to catch at first. Oh, she's on
Speaker 1: the run like Sean and Beyonce nos Carter because now
Speaker 1: she's facing a year in prison for causing the worst
Speaker 1: crash and the history of the toward de France. Now
Speaker 1: does she have to deal with the consequences of our actions, gys.
Speaker 1: I pray though, that she's not somewhere contemplating making a
Speaker 1: permanent decision based off temporary feelings. Yes, I'm talking about suicide. Okay,
Speaker 1: you have to understand people who craved the drug called
Speaker 1: a tension can handle said drug when it's positive, when
Speaker 1: it's negative like this, And you caused the largest crashing
Speaker 1: towards the French history, and the world seems like they're
Speaker 1: talking about you. That's a lot of pressure. Okay. I
Speaker 1: know she's scared to death, that's why she's on the run.
Speaker 1: But I pray she doesn't hurt herself. But police are
Speaker 1: on the hunt for this female suspect who has not
Speaker 1: been identified, and all of this is happening because she
Speaker 1: wanted to hold up a sign to the TV cameras
Speaker 1: that said gold grand granddad in a combination of French
Speaker 1: and German. I have no idea what the hell that means. Okay,
Speaker 1: I am a forty two year old man who will
Speaker 1: be forty three tomorrow and when I read gold grand granddad,
Speaker 1: it translated into my brain to go, go gadget. Don't
Speaker 1: ask me why, That's just what happened. Okay, here's the
Speaker 1: moral of the story. What is the point of trying
Speaker 1: to get on camera in two twenty one? You have
Speaker 1: a sign, hold the sign up, have someone take a
Speaker 1: video of you holding the sign up with the race
Speaker 1: going on behind you. You're already on the side of
Speaker 1: the road. All you had to do was just turn around,
Speaker 1: hold the sign up. Let somebody videotape you the bikers
Speaker 1: are passing by. That's cool. Problem solved. What's the point
Speaker 1: of trying to get on TV cameras in two twenty
Speaker 1: one when you have your own cameras on your phone.
Speaker 1: Whoever that sign was full, they could have saw that
Speaker 1: on social media. You could have texted that to the phone.
Speaker 1: But that's just not enough for people in two twenty one.
Speaker 1: That's the problem with the attention we received from these smartphones.
Speaker 1: That one high is so addictive and more addictive than
Speaker 1: any drug on the market right now. And what's sad
Speaker 1: is we don't even know we junkies. Please give this
Speaker 1: unidentified woman who ruined it toward the France the biggest
Speaker 1: he hull. She could have really hurt somebody. She could
Speaker 1: she could have possibly kill somebody. Yeah, all that for
Speaker 1: a look. And the thing about it is what most
Speaker 1: people don't understand is your shoes or your actual pedals
Speaker 1: because you're clipped in so you just can't put your
Speaker 1: foot down and stop like you have to unclip, and
Speaker 1: you fall. I forget you a biker. Yes I am
Speaker 1: a bike. I forget you. Put the little shorts on
Speaker 1: and put the little jail on your bookie. Yes, that's right,
Speaker 1: get on that little banana bike if you trained years
Speaker 1: for that. So the fact that she just ruined all
Speaker 1: of that, yes, rub it in, all right, don't rub
Speaker 1: it in. We don't you know. I'm sure this young
Speaker 1: lady's going through a lot of pres You never fell
Speaker 1: off your bike. Huh. You never fell off your bike
Speaker 1: because you forgot to unclip. I'm gonna be honest with you. Now,
Speaker 1: I forgot that you was a biker. So now I'm
Speaker 1: mad I gave her a donkey today. I'm proud of
Speaker 1: this young lady. I hope you I hope she finds
Speaker 1: you in your packing fall. That's what I hope happens. Goodness, gracious,
Speaker 1: all right, well, thank you for well, yeah, thank you
Speaker 1: for that donkey today. She deserves it all right. Now,
Speaker 1: when we come back, Curly Nikki will be joining us
Speaker 1: Nicky Walton m. For the people that don't know who

Speaker 1: dot com and we'll talk to her when we come back,
Speaker 1: So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning, The
Speaker 1: Breakfast club Yep, Charlemagne and God Angela yee dj Envy.
Speaker 1: I don't know where he ran off too. But we
Speaker 1: have a special guest in the building this morning. Her
Speaker 1: name is Nikki Walton. Good morning, Nikki, good morning, how
Speaker 1: are you. I'm wonderful Curly Nikki. You know her on
Speaker 1: social media as at Curly Nikki. I love when people
Speaker 1: walk in the room and you can just feel the divinity,
Speaker 1: just like a flowing off to man. This like it
Speaker 1: was a lot of suffering, just a long journey, like
Speaker 1: around the world journey, six hundred books, meditating daily for
Speaker 1: like four hours a day, and I found what I
Speaker 1: was looking for. And now it's like I have no
Speaker 1: choice but to share. Just like with the natural hair stuff,
Speaker 1: I had no choice but to share that. Well, let's
Speaker 1: start with that, right, Let's start with Curly Nikki and
Speaker 1: how that even came about. I hated my hair and myself.
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't feel comfortable in my own skin,
Speaker 1: and I had straightened my hair. I had it straightened
Speaker 1: my whole life. And when I got to college, there
Speaker 1: was no such thing as a black style. It's in
Speaker 1: this very small, little white town I was in, and
Speaker 1: so I had no way to get my hair done,
Speaker 1: and I'd have to go three hours home to Saint Louis,
Speaker 1: Missouri to get it straightened. But I was also in
Speaker 1: college back in the day, so there was no air conditioning.
Speaker 1: So when I get back to my door, it would
Speaker 1: go back, it would go back, and then my self
Speaker 1: esteem would go down, and I'm like, this isn't okay.
Speaker 1: You know, I was a psychology major. I could tell.
Speaker 1: I'm like something is off. So I started learning about
Speaker 1: hair and I started sharing, and I launched Curly Nikki
Speaker 1: and it went viral. You know. I got myself on
Speaker 1: tire banks, and I wrote a best selling book with HarperCollins,
Speaker 1: and I've been working with Doctor Oys as their resident expert,
Speaker 1: like ever since twenty thirteen. How does hair help with
Speaker 1: the healing process? You know, for me, it was my
Speaker 1: first step toward freedom. So I felt like I couldn't
Speaker 1: just go in and apply for a job. I have
Speaker 1: to first figure out what am I gonna do with
Speaker 1: my hair? And that makes you you're not on your
Speaker 1: A game because you're concerned about your hair. You can't
Speaker 1: just go on vacation. You know, I'm gonna give braids,
Speaker 1: Like what am I gonna do with my hair. That's
Speaker 1: not a good quality of life, Like you should just
Speaker 1: be able to live the way you were born. And
Speaker 1: so that was my first step, like why am I
Speaker 1: not comfortable in my own skin, in my own hair.
Speaker 1: So once I pulled back that layer, like the layers
Speaker 1: just kept coming back, and I'm like, I'm not even this,
Speaker 1: you know, like going beyond all concepts. So it was
Speaker 1: like my first step into a larger enlightenment like spiritual journey. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The big disadvantage because even for myself, I used to
Speaker 1: straighten my hair all the time growing up, and it
Speaker 1: would take you so long first of all to do it.
Speaker 1: Then you have to maintain it God forbid of rain. Yes,
Speaker 1: And like you said, when it's humid out and then
Speaker 1: your hair gets off frazzy, and you just don't feel
Speaker 1: right if your hair doesn't look a certain way, anxious
Speaker 1: in the in the rain, in the humidity, like when
Speaker 1: it's warming people are having fun, You're like, what is
Speaker 1: my hair now? I got a plastic exactly, can't swim? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So and you're right, and so I do feel like
Speaker 1: growing up, you always wanted your hair to be straight.
Speaker 1: I actually even did a straightening process to my hair
Speaker 1: that really damaged my hair a lot. This thermo recondition.
Speaker 1: It looked nice because I read about straight no matter why.
Speaker 1: But then when it was time to grow it out,
Speaker 1: it's just look awful during that period of time. But
Speaker 1: it took your curl pattern out. Yeah, so then you
Speaker 1: had to pivot to the time where now everybody wants
Speaker 1: to have you know, natural curly here, but we couldn't
Speaker 1: even find any products at first for natural and curly here.
Speaker 1: Now now now it's completely different myself and my cohort,
Speaker 1: and it's like twenty two thousand and eight about twenty fifteen,
Speaker 1: we completely changed the way black women view themselves and
Speaker 1: their hair. And it also affected the way manufacturers were
Speaker 1: making products and how they were marketing two black women.
Speaker 1: So whereas before it'd be like before curly hair was
Speaker 1: like oh yoh, yug, you know I want my hair
Speaker 1: silky smooth, now it's like, oh, of course, you want
Speaker 1: your natural texture to be popping, So we're giving you
Speaker 1: products to support that. We're not downing your natural texture.
Speaker 1: That was a whole ad campaign from a company I
Speaker 1: can't was they like Doctor Miracles or something. It was
Speaker 1: crazy commercials. Man, Yeah, like down frizzy looking, highly textured hair,
Speaker 1: giving that the before picture and the after picture being straight, smooth,
Speaker 1: silky hair. But it's like, that's not my hair. So
Speaker 1: when you see that image, how does that make you feel?
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here listening. I'm just like, man, I can't
Speaker 1: wait to see what the next generation of black women
Speaker 1: looks like, because you know, I got three daughters, and
Speaker 1: I think about, like you said, all the representations that
Speaker 1: I know didn't exist when I was young, Like they've
Speaker 1: got children's books about hair texture, and you know, my
Speaker 1: older daughters is gonna be thirteen this weekend, like she's
Speaker 1: proud to have her braids and everything else. And I
Speaker 1: got to stop the young white girls from touching her
Speaker 1: hair and saying how much they love her heads. I
Speaker 1: just wonder what's that gonna do for that confidence that
Speaker 1: that next generation tremendous. They'll be able to focus on
Speaker 1: stuff that matters, you know, like to be able to
Speaker 1: go off to college, your oldest starter and not have
Speaker 1: to be worried about her hair, to be able to
Speaker 1: just be studying with you boys too, to even understand
Speaker 1: and men judging women's hair like they have issues if
Speaker 1: I don't date girls with weaves, but sometimes you do
Speaker 1: that because it's just easier to protective style. You're growing
Speaker 1: your hair around. Yeah, so you can't judge what a
Speaker 1: woman does. Also, sometimes all those styling and all of that,
Speaker 1: people who are always having to get their hairstyle, they
Speaker 1: want to protect their natural hair, yes, and so they
Speaker 1: wear a wig or they wear a weave just in
Speaker 1: order to be able to do that, and people are
Speaker 1: so judgmental. Stuff your hair is like it's getting burned
Speaker 1: by the curling iron or the hot comb or write
Speaker 1: a passage for probably it was terrible. I remember, like
Speaker 1: you know, Easter Sunday, like the day before Easter Sunday,
Speaker 1: having my ear folded down with a paper towel over it,
Speaker 1: trying to protect myself and it usually helps, but I
Speaker 1: mean the sweat, just the fear of getting burned, and
Speaker 1: then the sweat your hair is reverting real time, you know,
Speaker 1: because you're not supposed to get it wet, but you're
Speaker 1: sweating because you're scared. It wasn't I see that's where
Speaker 1: mc curler. Yeah, that's from the ones. Oh my goodness, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got burned on my ear a few times. That's
Speaker 1: what I tell my daughters when I when I see
Speaker 1: my wife doing their head and they're like, I out
Speaker 1: you Like, that's the right passage. Now let's talk about
Speaker 1: Good Mornings with Curly Nikki. Because you did Lunch, a
Speaker 1: daily podcast. So what inspired this? I know it just lunch,
Speaker 1: like actually earlier this week. Yeah, yeah, So I knew
Speaker 1: during the pandemic, I'm like, I have to do something different.
Speaker 1: I know everybody was feeling that pressure of like the
Speaker 1: same day over and over again, feeling trapped at home.
Speaker 1: I'm a single mom, I've got two kids. I also
Speaker 1: have my parents with me that are helping tremendously with childcare,
Speaker 1: but the parents and the kids, it was always Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Nicki,
Speaker 1: Nicki Nikki all day or Curly Nikki stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: work stuff. And I'm like, I've got to take my
Speaker 1: power back. So I started waking up two hours early,
Speaker 1: starting at five am. I'd sit, I chant, I'd do
Speaker 1: my journaling, I do some yoga. And that started in
Speaker 1: November twenty twenty, and it was so awesome. I started
Speaker 1: sharing on social and I was getting so many questions,
Speaker 1: so many dms, so many requests for calls, and all
Speaker 1: the questions and all the statements were the same, I'm
Speaker 1: not happy. I love what you're doing. How do I
Speaker 1: do it? How do I do it? And so I
Speaker 1: was just DM and back everybody because I want people
Speaker 1: to feel better. That's always with my goal, feel better,
Speaker 1: feel good. And I'm like, I can't spend all day
Speaker 1: responding to people, and I'm like, I know, podcast it
Speaker 1: feels like I'm talking to the individual and I can
Speaker 1: help them tap into what I'm tapping into every morning.
Speaker 1: Because nobody's happy unless you have found peace inside. I
Speaker 1: don't care how successful you are, I don't care how
Speaker 1: much stuff you have, what you have achieved. You're not
Speaker 1: happy unless you have a peace within. And once you
Speaker 1: have that, like once you find happiness inside, you'll start
Speaker 1: seeing it outside. But you have to start doing something
Speaker 1: different every single day if you want to see something different,
Speaker 1: if you want to be different. And when it changed
Speaker 1: my life starting that was November. By March I was
Speaker 1: talking to you, Yep, that was out of the blue.
Speaker 1: That whole summit, you know, just came from this habit
Speaker 1: of waking up and just being not having to be
Speaker 1: anything for anyone. You think it's because you was setting
Speaker 1: your intention absolutely and it wasn't even like I am intending,
Speaker 1: you know, to start a successful podcast because it's already
Speaker 1: number four on the charts. And spirituality, I wasn't like
Speaker 1: visualizing and I've done all that stuff we all have,
Speaker 1: you know, I wasn't affirming anything in particular. I was
Speaker 1: just doing my mantra, which is in Sanskrit, and sitting
Speaker 1: and being in the silence and listening to the silence,
Speaker 1: like that's what I consider meditation, and from that silence
Speaker 1: you feel a love, so just be in contact with it.
Speaker 1: I'd sit in the presence of that like it was
Speaker 1: my real job, and now like my real job has
Speaker 1: come out of it. I feel like my purpose has
Speaker 1: unfolded from that. And I know that whoever you are
Speaker 1: listening right now, if you aren't happy, or if you
Speaker 1: know you're meant or more or for something else, and
Speaker 1: even if you can't see it, you don't have to
Speaker 1: see it. You just have to feel this, and then
Speaker 1: that comes. We have more with Curly Nicki Nicki Walton
Speaker 1: when we come back, So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee Chalomagne,
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking
Speaker 1: it with curly Nicky Nicky Walton Chalomagne. I wonder what
Speaker 1: the universe was saying around that time, because it's like,
Speaker 1: that's when I got into meditation. In December two. It
Speaker 1: happened on the spiratory retreat. Yeah, it was just my
Speaker 1: girl Dee de DeBie Brown. We went on a spiratory
Speaker 1: treat in Mexico and like every day that's what we
Speaker 1: were doing, yoga and meditation, and I just have not
Speaker 1: looked back since. I wonder what was in the air.
Speaker 1: You know, it changes. I started this journey that you know,
Speaker 1: it started in twoy thirteen for me. I called Tracy
Speaker 1: Ellis Ross crying because I was like, I have all
Speaker 1: the stuff that the world told me to get, and
Speaker 1: I don't feel good and I'm still looking for the
Speaker 1: next magazine interview or the next spot on TV or
Speaker 1: the next book deal. And I'm like, and when I
Speaker 1: get it, I know I'm not going to be happy.
Speaker 1: And she's like, you gotta get out of the shallow
Speaker 1: in and go deeper into your spirituality. You got to
Speaker 1: start reading better books because I was like reading The Secret,
Speaker 1: you know, just like you need good stuff. It was
Speaker 1: like the gateway drugs, you know. So I'm very appreciative
Speaker 1: of the secret, and so that sent me from there.
Speaker 1: I went into Ekartole, Power of Now, and then just
Speaker 1: everything else. I went deep into like Adviteavedanta, which is
Speaker 1: non dual Hinduism, and then I found out there's a
Speaker 1: non dual Christianity, you know, and it's all the same,
Speaker 1: and they're all pointing to the same presence. It's like,
Speaker 1: it's not when they say go within. It's not like
Speaker 1: turning in a direction. It's like a dimension and it
Speaker 1: just feels like love and it sounds like silence. And
Speaker 1: you can listen for it a really easy way I
Speaker 1: tell people, because I do this on the podcast every morning,
Speaker 1: I give you a different practice to tap into this.
Speaker 1: If you put your headphones on and you're listening to
Speaker 1: your favorite song, instead of listening to the music, listen
Speaker 1: for the silence, Like right now, you hear my voice
Speaker 1: and you hear the quiet that my voice is coming
Speaker 1: out of. Pay attention to the quiet, and when you
Speaker 1: find the quiet out here, it points you back to
Speaker 1: that quiet that is that is like existence, and then
Speaker 1: you become aware of what feels like a release, like
Speaker 1: you let your stomach go, you let your shoulders down,
Speaker 1: you breathe a little deeper. Your face naturally smiles when
Speaker 1: you're connected to this, and it just unfolds into your
Speaker 1: world and you meet everyone from this place because you know,
Speaker 1: you don't see them as another anymore. You see them
Speaker 1: as yourself. You see them as this love or as
Speaker 1: God appearing as people. It changes the way you interact
Speaker 1: with the world. I feel like we listening to the
Speaker 1: podcast right now exactly. That's what the podcast is every morning, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and this is a great way for people to be
Speaker 1: able to start their morning right because as we go
Speaker 1: out to face the world, we all have these rituals
Speaker 1: that we do in the morning as we get ready
Speaker 1: to start our day. But I think starting our mornings
Speaker 1: with you is a great way to make sure that
Speaker 1: we're going to have an amazing time, an amazing day.
Speaker 1: And also just at the morning, like more relaxed. I know,
Speaker 1: I guess so dressed. Like even driving to work it's stressful, yes,
Speaker 1: especially in New York City. Then, like the podcast is
Speaker 1: super short, it's five to ten minutes, and a lot
Speaker 1: of the reviews they say they listen first when they're
Speaker 1: up brushing their teeth, but then later on the commute,
Speaker 1: like in the commute to work, that's the best time
Speaker 1: to calm down. And then on the way home too,
Speaker 1: you know, because it's like helping you as long as
Speaker 1: you're in touch with that. It's like I'm not teaching.
Speaker 1: I'm not a teacher. I'm just feeling love while I'm talking,
Speaker 1: and that love gets awakened wherever you are, and then
Speaker 1: you can feel that and then you take that into
Speaker 1: your world and it's like we're just passing a flame
Speaker 1: and then you light someone else's candle and it just
Speaker 1: goes and goes and goes. I like what you said
Speaker 1: about You said we should move beyond our minds because
Speaker 1: my sacred purpose called she always says, stop thinking with logic,
Speaker 1: move with the spirit. So what was that transition like
Speaker 1: for you? You know? So, I'm also a licensed psychotherapist,
Speaker 1: and I was trained to teach people how to watch
Speaker 1: their negative automatic thinking, their negative thoughts, and then replace
Speaker 1: them with positive thoughts. But the problem is, like it's
Speaker 1: so many thoughts and it's so negative that you have
Speaker 1: to go deeper, you have to get to the root
Speaker 1: of it. And so again, we listen for the quiet.
Speaker 1: There's a place inside where you don't have to quiet
Speaker 1: your mind. There's a place inside where you're always meditating.
Speaker 1: There's a place inside where you're already happy. There's a
Speaker 1: place inside where you're already confident. So you don't have
Speaker 1: to get quiet. You don't have to get confident, you
Speaker 1: don't have to get successful, you don't have to get God.
Speaker 1: All you have to do is recognize that place inside
Speaker 1: where God is, or where love is, or where that
Speaker 1: confidence lives, and then you stay aware of it. So,
Speaker 1: just like right now, your attention is on your thoughts,
Speaker 1: you place it onto this love or onto the quiet,
Speaker 1: and then the thoughts are still there, and that's fine,
Speaker 1: but now you can see them for what they are.
Speaker 1: You don't have to believe them. You don't have to
Speaker 1: grab one and then feel bad about it. You don't
Speaker 1: have to take it so seriously. You can just notice
Speaker 1: that it's happening like a cloud in the sky, but
Speaker 1: you're the sky, and you stay as that awareness. And
Speaker 1: it's a different relationship with your thoughts. They don't frazzle you,
Speaker 1: they don't cause you to feel anxiety, and when you
Speaker 1: do feel anxious, you recognize it is. I'm not anxious.
Speaker 1: I just forgot to feel peace. I stepped out of piece.
Speaker 1: I made someone or something more important than this inner love,
Speaker 1: than this joy here. And then you're right back. And
Speaker 1: you might still be a little upset, but there's like
Speaker 1: something that has shifted in you. There's a space that's
Speaker 1: opened up where you can step back and sit back
Speaker 1: on your throne and it can be calm no matter what.
Speaker 1: So I'm never upset. I'm just out of peace. And
Speaker 1: then I find the piece again, and it's just a
Speaker 1: breath away or just you know, just a turning within,
Speaker 1: just a listening away, and I'm back, and then I
Speaker 1: can be more effective in the moment. I love that.
Speaker 1: And you're read what you said? Six hundred books? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean probably more. It's been crazy. All the books,
Speaker 1: all the books, and they all say the same thing.
Speaker 1: All the religions they all like in their essence, they
Speaker 1: point back to the same core that we all have,
Speaker 1: no matter who you are or where you are, if
Speaker 1: you're dead or alive, this piece is what we are.
Speaker 1: What's your favorite? Mentioned that Cartotle a Powell and great book.
Speaker 1: What's your what's your favorite? What's the one that like
Speaker 1: the Supreme Yoga. It's also called The Yoga Facishta. I
Speaker 1: just found it actually last year, and it's summed up
Speaker 1: everything I read and everything I came to know. If
Speaker 1: you're looking to get into this, though, I'd highly recommend
Speaker 1: The Power of Now by e. Caartole or The Untethered
Speaker 1: Soul by Michael Singer. That's a brilliant book that talks
Speaker 1: about that inner voice like a roommate. Like, if you
Speaker 1: had a nasty roommate, you could put them out, But
Speaker 1: our inner voice is nasty and we can't put them out.
Speaker 1: We have to learn how to live with them, you know,
Speaker 1: and ignore them. I'm reading a good one. Not call
Speaker 1: My Grandma's Hands, Racialize Trauma in the Pathway to Mending
Speaker 1: Our Hearts and Bodies. Oh that's powerful. That's a powerful title. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Angel Arrive, put me onto that. That's that's That's one
Speaker 1: of them ones. Because all of this stuff is just
Speaker 1: helping us to deal with our traumas. That's it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: basically the ongoing trauma and the little microaggressions every single day,
Speaker 1: every deal. You think we ever get to a true
Speaker 1: place of healing and wholeness. I do, if we can
Speaker 1: get beyond completely identifying with the person that we think
Speaker 1: we are. You know, if we can see that there
Speaker 1: is more to us than just the body and the mind.
Speaker 1: And that's what I do on the podcast. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to help people move beyond just thinking that they're Charlemagne
Speaker 1: or just Nikki. It's like, what is it when you
Speaker 1: hear about oneness and it sounds all woo wo and spiritual,
Speaker 1: there's an actual, true, experiential way to tap into that,
Speaker 1: where you know, Nikki's not other than me or this
Speaker 1: person is not other than me, and it's not something
Speaker 1: you have to imagine, it's something you feel. And once
Speaker 1: you start feeling that, that's healing, and that does the healing.
Speaker 1: It does, and if everybody was there, we wouldn't need
Speaker 1: any healing. That's right. Look Good Mornings with Curly Nikki
Speaker 1: or God Mornings with Curly Nikki. You know, make sure

Speaker 1: nine the Fast Saga the ninth obviously filmed from the
Speaker 1: action franchise, but in an estimated seventy million dollars, which
Speaker 1: is the biggest box office number since the pandemic began.
Speaker 1: I love it. It's also the largest debut at the
Speaker 1: box office since twenty nineteen Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker.
Speaker 1: Can go check my AMC stock. So that's a huge deal.
Speaker 1: But that's you know, people going back out. I love it.
Speaker 1: People back out and about Okay, now one person has
Speaker 1: died and four others were injured. That was in a
Speaker 1: shooting that took place in the early hours Friday. They
Speaker 1: said it was believed to be an attempted robbery in
Speaker 1: the Hollywood Hills, and the person whose house they attempted
Speaker 1: to rob belongs to Fashion Nova CEO Richard Sagan, So
Speaker 1: there were two groups exchange and gunfire. What they are
Speaker 1: saying is that the three suspects in question tailed him
Speaker 1: to his home. When the vehicle came to a stop,
Speaker 1: that's when the shooting took place. He's believed to have
Speaker 1: made it into his house before shots were fired. They
Speaker 1: don't know if the suspects knew it was him and
Speaker 1: the roles worse, or if they followed his car because
Speaker 1: of the high value of it. Let me ask you
Speaker 1: a question. Why it seem like that people are shooting
Speaker 1: more before people get robbed and keep it moving. But
Speaker 1: now it seems like people are getting robbed and then shot.
Speaker 1: That is not true. Yes, it is get so many
Speaker 1: people are got robbed, didn't get shot. The Great Father
Speaker 1: Carter told us a long time ago, broke niggas don't
Speaker 1: want no cash, They just want to kill you. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they've been doing this. This isn't new, all right, and
Speaker 1: I meant to do this last week, but I just
Speaker 1: want to get rehab. And she posted that she is
Speaker 1: batter lose this addiction. Loving God, I pray that you
Speaker 1: will comfort me and my suffering len skill to the
Speaker 1: hands and my healers, and bless the means used for
Speaker 1: my care. Give me such confidence in the power of
Speaker 1: your grace that even when I am afraid, I may
Speaker 1: put my whole trust in you. So we don't know
Speaker 1: what addiction exactly that she's battling. She did not share that,
Speaker 1: but we do want to wish her so much love, right,
Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter, you know what I'm saying, doesn't
Speaker 1: matter what she's addicted to. Just I'm glad that she's
Speaker 1: getting helpful whatever it is she needs to get helpful.
Speaker 1: She got her own line of underwear too. They sent
Speaker 1: me some of it is super cute, so shout out
Speaker 1: to Young m and Gabby. Thomas has broken the US
Speaker 1: Trials records and the women's two hundred meters at the
Speaker 1: US Olympic Track and Filled Trials, so she finished in
Speaker 1: twenty one point six one seconds. That means she earned

Speaker 1: And Serena Williams is not going to the Tokyo Olympics.
Speaker 1: She just said she's not heading there. Um. She said,
Speaker 1: I'm actually not on the Olympic list, not that I'm
Speaker 1: aware of. If so, then I shouldn't be on it.
Speaker 1: She said, there's a lot of reasons that I made
Speaker 1: my Olympic decision. I don't really want to get into
Speaker 1: them today. Maybe another day. Sorry, all right now. Justin
Speaker 1: Bieber wants people to leave him alone. You know, he
Speaker 1: got a place in Brooklyn, and while he's trying to
Speaker 1: go from his car to his apartment building, there's crowds
Speaker 1: of fans waiting for him outside. That has to be annoying.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's annoying people to people that live in
Speaker 1: that building also in Williamsburg. And here's what he said, Hi,
Speaker 1: I hear this is my home where I live, and
Speaker 1: I don't appreciate you guys to be any you know
Speaker 1: what at the end of the night. And I'm all like,
Speaker 1: you want to relax, Sorry to appreciate it. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: that's some fan interaction. Is that annoying? I mean he
Speaker 1: broke it down perfectly. He broke it down perfectly. He
Speaker 1: was he broke it down perfectly. That's his home. He
Speaker 1: just wants to rest and relax his head. He said,
Speaker 1: any place else, no problem, I'm coming to my crib.
Speaker 1: I'm shocked. Don't even know where he lives. I mean,
Speaker 1: realize how dangerous that is. Like if you just talked
Speaker 1: about people robbing and killing and all types of other stuff.
Speaker 1: It's like, why would you let people know where these
Speaker 1: high profile folks live. It's just hard for people to
Speaker 1: not know. They see you going into your hearties. If
Speaker 1: you get the packages, somebody knows where you live, and
Speaker 1: the next person knows. I mean, I don't know that
Speaker 1: it's that easy to hide that, friend. That's why you
Speaker 1: should move all the way out the way if you
Speaker 1: can afford to. All Right, And the brat is upset
Speaker 1: that Wendy Williams is saying that she tried to hit
Speaker 1: on her because it just never happened. Here's what she
Speaker 1: said on the show. Well, you got a strong pickup game,
Speaker 1: unless that's the way you always stick to attractive women.
Speaker 1: Like do you think I tried to pick you up?
Speaker 1: You win? Look, I've got less on my phone. The
Speaker 1: last time we talked and I text you, it was
Speaker 1: after I saw your documentary and I felt like you
Speaker 1: ain't got no real friends, so I called to check
Speaker 1: on you. You said more than if you were a
Speaker 1: no girl, you better check your phone because I got
Speaker 1: the same receipt. I got the same phone, And don't
Speaker 1: do that, girl. I mean, I love you, but I
Speaker 1: never been attracted to your girl. All right, well, okay,
Speaker 1: if I was gay, would you like man? No, when
Speaker 1: nobody's safe on Wendy Show, no more, Wendy is jumping
Speaker 1: on everything moving. That's right. Okay, Well mercy and let's
Speaker 1: not forget the best. It's in a whole relationship. All right.

Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Club. Good morning. So Breakfast Club, your
Speaker 1: morning's will never be the same. Angela, you're here, and

Speaker 1: people money for nearly sixty years. That's a long time.
Speaker 1: So if you want the quality coverage you deserve at
Speaker 1: prices you can afford, check out the General eight hundred
Speaker 1: General or visit the General dot com. Some restrictions apply. Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club, Good morning, Good. This was a
Speaker 1: great weekend for just TV between the Fight, the versus
Speaker 1: the Beet Awards basketball, this was a great weekend. Yeah,
Speaker 1: definitely since Festival. I'm not gonna lie Sin Festival got lost.
Speaker 1: And the reason I think San Festival got lost is
Speaker 1: because they weren't televised. I didn't hear anything about that
Speaker 1: Sin Festival. Oh yes, Vertival just like it was last
Speaker 1: years in a row. It's a wellness house. It's also
Speaker 1: going to be next weekend. They had some performances. We
Speaker 1: did a lot of things in person that were prerecorded
Speaker 1: and then it's streaming online for people to be able
Speaker 1: to watch. Yeah, that wasn't that wasn't gonna work. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying that when you got to BT
Speaker 1: Awards live and you know you got people at basketball
Speaker 1: games and people at the verses and people at the fights,
Speaker 1: Like if you're doing something virtual, that was gonna get
Speaker 1: drowned out this weekend. Yeah, I just think it's too
Speaker 1: much for them to have planned to see what was
Speaker 1: going to happen during this pandemic because it's a lot
Speaker 1: of moving parts. I will say this though b ET
Speaker 1: had like BT, they went over and beyond for the
Speaker 1: BET Awards. It was very nice everything they said. They
Speaker 1: didn't skimp on anything for this BAT Awards. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I think the BT Awards is one event, but essence festival,
Speaker 1: it's a whole festival. It's a weekend festival with a
Speaker 1: lot of different moving pirates and stages and you know
Speaker 1: two day concerts and then the in person like booths
Speaker 1: that are set up and the panels. It's a lot.
Speaker 1: So I don't think they could have planned and advanced
Speaker 1: that far what was gonna be happening, what the world
Speaker 1: would be like at this time, because it takes like
Speaker 1: a year of planning. Absolutely, they should have just had
Speaker 1: in Atlanta like everybody else do it that's all you
Speaker 1: gotta do. If you got an event, do it in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Throw it against the wall, seaward sticks, something's gonna stick.
Speaker 1: All that stuff was in Atlanta this weekend. Van David's
Speaker 1: flight was in Atlanta. The Hawks game was in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: The Soldier Boy it was Yeah, it felt like Atlanta.
Speaker 1: And then I think the whole audience there had to
Speaker 1: be vaccinated right at the BET Awards, Yes, everybody, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: you had to take a test before you got there.
Speaker 1: You had to prove that you didn't have you just
Speaker 1: took a test with it. I think a day or so,
Speaker 1: because I know when we went to go see Dave
Speaker 1: Chappelle Radio City, the whole audience had to be vaccinated. Wow.
Speaker 1: I also wonder how fast is little Baby's jet? Little
Speaker 1: baby everywhere? Right, I was thinking the same thing. He
Speaker 1: was at the fight, he'd be at the game, and
Speaker 1: then he still made every day where. And I started
Speaker 1: thinking about this one night because I saw I saw
Speaker 1: him in Miami. That's when I hosted the YouTube TikTok's event.
Speaker 1: And then later that night he was in Atlanta at
Speaker 1: Young Thugsu Young No Gun's birthday part his birthday and
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that's just Miami Atlanta, but still
Speaker 1: it's like, how fast is Little Baby's private jet? He
Speaker 1: was in Atlanta for the fight, then flew back for
Speaker 1: the BT Awards rehearsal, then he went and did the show,
Speaker 1: and then came back for the for the actual awards.
Speaker 1: Probably just be sleep on that plane. You know that
Speaker 1: he working, that young King is working the Little Baby
Speaker 1: all right, Well when we come back. We got the
Speaker 1: positive notice to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Guee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Just want to remind you guys, it's six
