Speaker 1: see if they'd give you a second one, if that'll
Speaker 1: boost the effectiveness of it or something. Yeah. No, Right, well,
Speaker 1: let's get the show crack in front page news. What
Speaker 1: we're talking about, um, I mean, I guess we can
Speaker 1: discuss that. Also, let's talk about Cuomo, Governor Cuomo in
Speaker 1: New York. Now there's a couple of women who are
Speaker 1: accusing him of being inappropriate and of harassment. Okay, then
Speaker 1: we got some special guests joining us this morning. We
Speaker 1: have Mark Lamont Hill. He'll be joining us. He has
Speaker 1: a new book. Will kicking with him about that. And
Speaker 1: also new artists don't bang, we'll be joining us, so
Speaker 1: I'll kicking with him as well. All right, So let's
Speaker 1: get the show crack in this Front page News is
Speaker 1: on the way as to breakfast local more morning, everybody
Speaker 1: is dj Envy Angela Yee Charlomagne, the guy we are
Speaker 1: to Breakfast club was getting some front page news. Where
Speaker 1: we started, Well, let's start with a second. Former aide
Speaker 1: as accused Governor Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment now the
Speaker 1: first Woman. On Wednesday, Lindsey Boylan described several years of
Speaker 1: uncomfortable interactions with Governor Cromo, including an invitation to play
Speaker 1: strip poker on a government airplane. Cuomo has denied those allegations.
Speaker 1: In an initial response, he also talked about Miss Bennett
Speaker 1: now Miss Bennett Charlotte Benett. She's a twenty five year
Speaker 1: old former aide to Cuomo told The New York Times
Speaker 1: that he asked her inappropriate personal questions, told her that
Speaker 1: he was open to relationships with women in their twenties,
Speaker 1: and she said that he left her feeling like he
Speaker 1: wanted to sleep with her. He never made any physical advances,
Speaker 1: she said, but she did describe a meeting in his
Speaker 1: office where he talked about being lonely during a pandemic.
Speaker 1: He said he can't even hug anyone, and then when
Speaker 1: she said she couldn't hug her parents, he was like, no,
Speaker 1: I mean, really hug somebody, and then she also said
Speaker 1: she was talking to him about her experience as a
Speaker 1: sexual assault survivor, and he seemed fixated by the revelation.
Speaker 1: She also told a friend to be a text message.
Speaker 1: The way he was repeating you were raped and abused
Speaker 1: and attacked and assaulted and betrayed, over and over again,
Speaker 1: while looking me directly in the eyes with something out
Speaker 1: of a horror movie. She said, I felt like he
Speaker 1: was testing me. Now he has denied that. He said
Speaker 1: he believed he was acting as a mentor and never
Speaker 1: made advances towards Miss Bennett, he said, nor did I
Speaker 1: ever intend to act in any way that was inappropriate.
Speaker 1: He also went on to say that things may have
Speaker 1: been interpreted as unwanted flirtation, and he apologized for that,
Speaker 1: and he also promised an investigation. First, he had said
Speaker 1: he would appoint a former federal judge to lead an inquiry,
Speaker 1: but backtracked after he said after critics pointed out that
Speaker 1: he had close ties to one of his advisors, and
Speaker 1: then he said he would ask the Titian James, who
Speaker 1: is the state attorney general, and janetz Fieri, the chief
Speaker 1: judge of the Court of Appeals, to select an independent
Speaker 1: and qualified lawyer to review the allegations. Yeah, you can't
Speaker 1: pick the person that's going to be investigating you. That
Speaker 1: we're seeing pretty sketchy, don't you think absolutely now that
Speaker 1: this may impact Governor Colmo's political future? And we hear
Speaker 1: these stories of politicians involved like these these sexual related
Speaker 1: candles all the time. I mean Biden had them, Trump
Speaker 1: had him. So how did they decide who they want
Speaker 1: to like resign and who gets to have a political
Speaker 1: future and that in cases like this, I don't know,
Speaker 1: you have to watch how it plays out and see
Speaker 1: what happens. I mean, it's I don't know, it's difficult,
Speaker 1: and there's so many people that have different allegations against
Speaker 1: them that still continue to go on. And I'm president
Speaker 1: and it's happened. It happened, like you said, the Trump
Speaker 1: had happened to Biden. That's what I'm saying. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to I wonder how they decide who they want
Speaker 1: to resign and who gets to have a political future.
Speaker 1: Cause Arina yesterday like, oh, you know, his political futures
Speaker 1: up in the air right now, right. I think it
Speaker 1: also depends on the response and are there other women
Speaker 1: who are going to come forward, and you know, it's
Speaker 1: just hard to say and uh, like he was saying,
Speaker 1: he feels like he wasn't flirting, but he apologizes that
Speaker 1: she misinterpreted as flirtatious. But it's definitely an appropriate conversation
Speaker 1: at the least at the minimum position a power like him.
Speaker 1: Live Nation CEO Michael Rappano says that he believes that
Speaker 1: large scale US contests could start in Midsummer with the
Speaker 1: seventy five to one percent capacity so he posted. With
Speaker 1: more artists than ever wanting to tour and fans eager
Speaker 1: to make up for lost time, all signs point to
Speaker 1: even more concerts ahead. Thank you to all of our
Speaker 1: Live Nation employees for their endless resilience and creativity. None
Speaker 1: of this would be possible without you. It looks like
Speaker 1: it can happen. I hope, so, I mean, I just
Speaker 1: hope that, you know, will people be willing to go
Speaker 1: out like that? I don't know. I mean, I think
Speaker 1: for people who got the who actually get the vaccination,
Speaker 1: I just don't know how I feel about people anymore.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. For somebody who deals with
Speaker 1: anxiety the way I deal with anxiety, I like not
Speaker 1: having to be around, you know, large crowds of people.
Speaker 1: I really thoroughly enjoy it. But I mean I was
Speaker 1: like that before the pandemic. Yeah, I wasn't showing up
Speaker 1: to these large events like this season. But the vaccine
Speaker 1: is not one hundred percent effective though, Right, even if
Speaker 1: that you was saying that you can be around other
Speaker 1: people who have the vaccine, but he's not saying you
Speaker 1: can go be around everybody. Right, they're saying, still wear masks.
Speaker 1: It's not like you got the vaccine. He could be like,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm out chilling all that. I'm doing that anyway,
Speaker 1: I've already made in my mind even afterward pastors for
Speaker 1: whatever that looks like I'm still wearing masks, like when
Speaker 1: I go to the airport instead, yep, as well as well, smooth.
Speaker 1: All the Asian people who was ahead of the curve,
Speaker 1: and we used to look at y'all and like, what
Speaker 1: the hell they know that we don't? Well now we
Speaker 1: all know. Yeah, well all right, well that is your
Speaker 1: front page news, all right, get it off your chest
Speaker 1: eight dread five eight five one oh five one. If
Speaker 1: you need to vent phone lines and wide open. It's
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club come morning, the breakfast club. This is
Speaker 1: your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're
Speaker 1: man than from you on the breakfast club. You got
Speaker 1: something on your mind. Hello, who's this? Hey? What's going on?
Speaker 1: In this? Was buying out of useful man with the pocket? USA? Hey,
Speaker 1: what's up? Brother? How's it going? I'm going here? Man,
Speaker 1: come on and Charlotte mane Angela. How you guys got
Speaker 1: a great weekend? Me, I was just making sure you
Speaker 1: got the package that I suffer your son. Man, I've
Speaker 1: stot from the pocket up to the radio station. I'm
Speaker 1: just making sure, yes I did. I did get it.
Speaker 1: And for people that that don't know what you're talking about,
Speaker 1: explain what you what you created so the pother that
Speaker 1: I created this for us for just you get boot
Speaker 1: off about the police. You were already have your license
Speaker 1: and assurance in this pocket, so all you knew is
Speaker 1: brow your window down and attached it to the outside
Speaker 1: of your be here because the police officers walking up
Speaker 1: he were already to have your licens in the shirts
Speaker 1: on outside of it. The hills, he will see both
Speaker 1: hands visible on the wheel, so now he could be
Speaker 1: in a comfortable state of mind, and you, as a
Speaker 1: driver can sell a whole lot safer. No, you don't
Speaker 1: have to move a reach in the thing and then
Speaker 1: be accused or movement or reaching or something that's gonna harm.
Speaker 1: You've told us about this before, King, Yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: he just sent us go. I got it though, and
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna give it to my son this week
Speaker 1: and just tell him manage as soon as he get it.
Speaker 1: Put the insurance, and that every time he get in
Speaker 1: his hips, make sure he put his LIFs in now,
Speaker 1: keeping in the cup holder, keeping in the blos so
Speaker 1: if he do ever get pulled over, it's not a
Speaker 1: left movement. And just put it on the outside of
Speaker 1: his door, keep his hands visible, and he don't have
Speaker 1: to move and get back home till right. I think
Speaker 1: I think it's a great idea, but it's gonna take
Speaker 1: some getting used to because if I was a cop,
Speaker 1: that would look suspicious as hell to me when I
Speaker 1: see somebody just told something about the window and hanging
Speaker 1: on the window. But what the hell was that? You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Especially in the dark. Hello, who's
Speaker 1: this baby? All right? Get it on the cas person.
Speaker 1: I want to say good morning to y'all of this yard.
Speaker 1: More on the way to work. Really appreciate information you
Speaker 1: guys put out. Solomagne, I've really clone to actually agree
Speaker 1: with a lot of these states. First I didn't, but
Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of growth. And your brothers, I
Speaker 1: really appreciate that. You king as the year that that story.
Speaker 1: She was just saying about the I'm miss part of it.
Speaker 1: The political guy who Willemo governor Clomo in New York. Yes,
Speaker 1: the guy, it got it. It's becoming a problem because
Speaker 1: how is it then people meet each other are stark
Speaker 1: relationships without some type of flirtations if it's not something
Speaker 1: as far as they the rent of your job, are
Speaker 1: just being belligerent or ignorant about it or whatever. Why
Speaker 1: is it such a problem that a man pushed with
Speaker 1: a woman just say hey, I'm not interested in more worms. Well,
Speaker 1: you can't do that in the workplace, especially in your
Speaker 1: position of power. And then she did say she felt
Speaker 1: like her job was on the line if she didn't
Speaker 1: have these conversations. So you just can't have inappropriate conversations
Speaker 1: like that at work. Yeah, and I get the bread.
Speaker 1: If you're breading a job or something like that, I
Speaker 1: get it. But truth be told, I would say probably
Speaker 1: seventy percent of relationship starting. Well, listen, it's a touchy thing.
Speaker 1: If you're in a position of power, and especially if
Speaker 1: someone's not trying to have that conversation with you and
Speaker 1: they're uncomfortable, then don't do it. Yeah, I got to
Speaker 1: ask you. If you're pushing the conversation, I get it.
Speaker 1: But if it's a birthdation, Oh he flirted with me,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, and you might and you might look
Speaker 1: at it like flairtases, and she might look at it
Speaker 1: as harassment. All right, So I guess a lot of
Speaker 1: guys out here don't get put the book charger because
Speaker 1: it's a don't keep going because I feel a lot
Speaker 1: of guy's purple workness. And I just want to tell
Speaker 1: you right now and anybody listening, just don't do that.
Speaker 1: Don't do that in the workplace. Do not flirt with somebody.
Speaker 1: Just mind your business, do your job, keep it professional.
Speaker 1: I get what he's saying on the line, though, he's saying,
Speaker 1: because you're at work eight hours a day, You know
Speaker 1: what I mean, You're probably traveling three three hours a day,
Speaker 1: four hours in an hour and a half to work,
Speaker 1: an hour and a half back. So the most time
Speaker 1: you spin us around co workers. So if you see
Speaker 1: a co worker that you like, but I guess, I
Speaker 1: guess what you say, and you just you can't do
Speaker 1: that in the workplace, Like, yeah, that's that's my advice.
Speaker 1: Just don't do it. You can't do it. But I
Speaker 1: guarantee you if you was a younger man that was attracted,
Speaker 1: she wouldn't have a problem with us. Yeah. But the
Speaker 1: other problem is when there's somebody in a position of
Speaker 1: power that has authority and then you feel pressured to
Speaker 1: do anything. You can easily say, look, that was inappropriate.
Speaker 1: I didn't know how to react to that. You just
Speaker 1: don't know. So especially like if there's interns that work
Speaker 1: at your office and you're trying to do certain things,
Speaker 1: you can't do things like that. And why are we
Speaker 1: always trying to find the right ways to do the
Speaker 1: wrong thing? Like how many more examples do we need
Speaker 1: to see to know that you're not supposed to be
Speaker 1: hollering that women that you work with in the workplace,
Speaker 1: Like it's not the street, it's not like being in
Speaker 1: the bar club. It's just simply not how hard goddamness,
Speaker 1: Because you see and Charlotmagne doing it don't think y'all
Speaker 1: can do that. It worked well, it's mutual and envy
Speaker 1: usually makes the first move on. It's not true. So
Speaker 1: that's the same thing, right, But a woman makes a
Speaker 1: move on. If a woman makes a move on you
Speaker 1: at work and then y'all go out and dating, something
Speaker 1: happens from that, you know, that's cool. I guess so
Speaker 1: the women's in charge of the women. Hey, I think
Speaker 1: that's not true. That's not true because women also can
Speaker 1: be in positions of power and men are working under
Speaker 1: them and they you don't want to have that happen that.
Speaker 1: I think it's different when it's two people on the
Speaker 1: same level, but when you feel like I have to
Speaker 1: do this or my job is in jeopardy. And also
Speaker 1: you can tell, you can tell when somebody's interested usually,
Speaker 1: And that's all I'm saying. I ain't saying being appropriate.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying when somebody shows interest, correct, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? If a guy, if a woman shows
Speaker 1: the guys saying he's shown interested, don't you know he's sorry.
Speaker 1: That's the double standard. It don't work like that for us.
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, Yeah, it just don't. It don't work like
Speaker 1: that for us, and you have to accept that and
Speaker 1: be fine with it. Chest eight hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one on five one. If you need to vent hit
Speaker 1: this up now is the Breakfast Club. Go Morning, the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club Power one five one. Wake God, wake up,
Speaker 1: Wake y'all, You're time to get it off your chest

Speaker 1: to do what they're saying. And I just took the
Speaker 1: vaccine a week ago, so I mean there is no
Speaker 1: it's just praying and doing what the what they tell
Speaker 1: me to do, as far as wearing mask and sanitized
Speaker 1: and wash my hands and all that. I think it's
Speaker 1: potential that you might have had it early on before
Speaker 1: everybody was able to get tested all the time and
Speaker 1: had all symptoms. That's also a possibility. Yeah, because I'm
Speaker 1: ready to travel and y'all just y'all are like you
Speaker 1: can't move around. You just have to be you just
Speaker 1: have to be safe, you know. I see people are
Speaker 1: doing podcasts with other people, like people are doing all
Speaker 1: kinds of stuff, and I see people who have been
Speaker 1: in the house and not going anywhere and gotten it.
Speaker 1: And by the way, we get tested, and we get
Speaker 1: tested me. I get tested. I get tested often if
Speaker 1: I do TV and all types of little but all
Speaker 1: testing does it show you that you might have it,
Speaker 1: you could be as safe as possible. And there's people
Speaker 1: that haven't left their house that have gotten it. You know,
Speaker 1: you just never know. You just have to do whatever
Speaker 1: you can and that if you have some symptoms, get tested,
Speaker 1: than if you're exposed to somebody with that, get tested. Hello.
Speaker 1: Who's this Hey, Good morning to Stephen from Alabama. What's
Speaker 1: up Stephen? Get a few chests, man, I just want
Speaker 1: to drop a clue farm for myself. I've been working
Speaker 1: two jobs for five years and I let one go
Speaker 1: yesterday and I start nice. Man, that's a good feeling. Congratulations,
Speaker 1: Thank you. Also, I'm trying to open up a business.
Speaker 1: It's like a rage room that I want to do
Speaker 1: here in Alabama. And I was trying to see if
Speaker 1: I can get advice from any of y'all. A rage room.
Speaker 1: What is a rage room? It's like a smash room.
Speaker 1: You come in and I want to focus on like
Speaker 1: mental health based like a small part of mental health.
Speaker 1: You come in, you smash things, frustration, you know, things
Speaker 1: like that. Oh that's dope. Erica Erica Ford has her
Speaker 1: trauma truck and she has a boxing boxing bag in
Speaker 1: the trauma truck for people to do stuff like that.
Speaker 1: So that makes sense. Yeah, and I've seen that before
Speaker 1: to a lot of a lot of people. I see
Speaker 1: a lot of high school and college students do that
Speaker 1: a lot. They go to these rage rooms and break
Speaker 1: up TVs and stuff like that. Yeah, and I'm trying
Speaker 1: to do one on my side of town where it's
Speaker 1: it's not a lot of money on this side, but
Speaker 1: I want to bring more money to my community. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got any tips to anything? I can, you know,
Speaker 1: look up anything if they will come. That's my tip.
Speaker 1: Do you have a whole budget put together for it
Speaker 1: and everything? You have everything in place? Do you need investors?
Speaker 1: What is it that you need? I started a vision board.
Speaker 1: I basically don't know what's the make your step. I
Speaker 1: know what permits, I need, everything I need. I don't
Speaker 1: know if I should focus on trying to get a
Speaker 1: building first, or trying to get these permits first, trying
Speaker 1: to get an LLC first. I don't know. I highly
Speaker 1: recommend well, definitely you have to get everything trademarked and
Speaker 1: take care of that paperwork. But you should put together
Speaker 1: a business plan. That's what really helps you. You should
Speaker 1: see what other comfortable businesses have done, what their success
Speaker 1: has like, what the marketing is like, why there's a
Speaker 1: need for this, how is this profitable? And then you
Speaker 1: have to figure out do you need investment? But you
Speaker 1: have to put together a business plan that'll help you too.
Speaker 1: I mean I have one. I have a business plan,
Speaker 1: but it's more so on a vision board, so it's
Speaker 1: not on paper. Now needs to put together on paper
Speaker 1: a business plan because if somebody wants to it's interested
Speaker 1: in investing, or they want to help out, or you
Speaker 1: need to hire people, you need to be able to
Speaker 1: show exactly what it is and show why it's necessary
Speaker 1: and show the research behind it. Word got you, bro.
Speaker 1: I want to drop a clues bomb for the clues
Speaker 1: bomb button because the way that thing gets tapped, Lord
Speaker 1: have mercy, the way I think it is what the
Speaker 1: clues bomb button. As much as y'all use it, that's
Speaker 1: want to drop a bomb for that. A man salute
Speaker 1: to Drake for repositioning the bomb, and I said, I
Speaker 1: used to tell I've been trying to get one person
Speaker 1: to use this bomb for the past three years, but
Speaker 1: he won't use it. Guess who that person is? DJ
Speaker 1: God damn clue Okay, that's why I've been trying to
Speaker 1: get to use it for the longest, but he won't
Speaker 1: touch it. Well, I appreciate anything y'all doing, and y'all
Speaker 1: keep me inspired, man, Thank you, man, get it off
Speaker 1: your chest. Eight five eight five one on five one.
Speaker 1: We got rumors on the way, yes and versus happened
Speaker 1: over the weekend. DiAngelo. You know what, I didn't even
Speaker 1: really as it was this weekend, but that did take place,
Speaker 1: so I did get a chance to watch it after
Speaker 1: the facts. That will tell you who the special guests
Speaker 1: were and how it went down, his set list and
Speaker 1: what people were saying. All right, we'll get into a
Speaker 1: nexus the breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. It's
Speaker 1: about Angela Ye, the breakfast club. All right. Well, Jeremy
Speaker 1: Lynn says that he was called coronavirus on court and
Speaker 1: they are now investigating exactly what happened. Now. He put
Speaker 1: out a statement and just basically talked about certain things
Speaker 1: that have been happening. He said, I know this was
Speaker 1: disappointing some of you, but I'm not naming our shaming anyone.
Speaker 1: What good doesn't do in this situation for someone to
Speaker 1: be torn down? It doesn't make my community safer or
Speaker 1: solve any of our long term problems with the racism.
Speaker 1: When I experienced racism in the Ivy League, it was
Speaker 1: my assistant coach, Kenny Blakeney that talked me through it.
Speaker 1: He shared with me his own experience as a black
Speaker 1: man stories of racism I couldn't begin to comprehend, stories
Speaker 1: including being called the N word and having things thrown
Speaker 1: at him from cars. He drew from his experiences with
Speaker 1: the identity to teach me how to stay strong in mine.
Speaker 1: He was also the first person to tell me I
Speaker 1: was an NBA player as a sophomore at Harvard. I
Speaker 1: thought he was crazy. The world will have you believe
Speaker 1: there isn't enough justice or opportunities to go around, that
Speaker 1: we only have time to pay attention to one group
Speaker 1: of people at a time, so we only need to
Speaker 1: fight for that spot. That the people you see hurting
Speaker 1: other people that look like you on the news represent
Speaker 1: an entire group of people. But this just isn't true.
Speaker 1: So we did in detail when or where the incident occurred,
Speaker 1: but Steve Kerr said that he would like for Jeremy
Speaker 1: Lynn's complaint to be thoroughly investigated. Here's what he said.
Speaker 1: I applaud Jeremy for his words and echo his sentiments
Speaker 1: regarding racism against the Asian American community. It's just so
Speaker 1: ridiculous and obviously spawned by many people, including our former president.
Speaker 1: It's just shocking. I don't know. I just I can't
Speaker 1: wrap my head around any of it. But I can't
Speaker 1: wrap my head around racism in general. I mean, we're
Speaker 1: all just flesh and blood. ME needs to Steve Well?
Speaker 1: Who who was it? Was it another player that called
Speaker 1: him that? Was it somebody in the stands? Like who?
Speaker 1: He didn't he didn't say because he doesn't want to.
Speaker 1: I guess it has to be somebody that we would know,
Speaker 1: because he didn't want to put that person on the
Speaker 1: blast because he's not naming anyone. But he did say
Speaker 1: it happened on the court. I wonder how trash talking
Speaker 1: is has in sports has changed and like this this
Speaker 1: this era that we're in, because we don't discuss that enough.
Speaker 1: You know, we know how things have changed everywhere else comedy, TV, film,
Speaker 1: but in sports when it comes to trash talk, I
Speaker 1: wonder how thing and he did he did say it
Speaker 1: was a player that called him that at least to
Speaker 1: say everything playing basketball like whatever it took, like you
Speaker 1: wanted to get in that person's head, like trash, you're
Speaker 1: trying to get in their head. It was just interesting.
Speaker 1: I was watching um, I was watching Boogie this weekend,
Speaker 1: the movie coming out of starting Pop Smoke, and that's
Speaker 1: what Pop Smoke was doing to the guy the whole movie,
Speaker 1: just getting his head by saying all types of while
Speaker 1: though right, well, there has been a lot of violence
Speaker 1: and racism against Asian Americans since the pandemic actually started.
Speaker 1: They said between in eight weeks between March twenty twenty
Speaker 1: and Ay twenty twenty, they were eighteen hundred acts of
Speaker 1: hate against Asian Americans that were reported, and that things
Speaker 1: were heightened by Donald Trump placing blame for the virus
Speaker 1: on China and calling it the China virus and the
Speaker 1: Kong flu. All right now, Also over the weekend that
Speaker 1: de'angelo Versus took place at the Apollo, and they said
Speaker 1: the episode did break the traditional format and what you
Speaker 1: did see was it was more like a celebration of
Speaker 1: DeAngelo and there was some performances that he had with
Speaker 1: collaborations that he's done, and so he started it off
Speaker 1: with an untitled new song with Kean Harold walk round
Speaker 1: the Thing, Come to My Guy, Kean Harold and Red
Speaker 1: Man and meThe Man also came out and did left
Speaker 1: him Right and meThe Man breakups to make ups. You're
Speaker 1: happy now you want your third baby, daddy, and you
Speaker 1: hate to see you get happy to trap me looking
Speaker 1: at my girl trying to throw them yeah at me,
Speaker 1: classic right, classic sounds. Yeah. I didn't watch it. I
Speaker 1: love versus, but I simply didn't know what the hell
Speaker 1: they was doing. That new format threw me off. They
Speaker 1: could have marketed that a little better. If they're doing
Speaker 1: exclusive concerts, great, but you gotta tell us that because
Speaker 1: I didn't know what what was going on. They did
Speaker 1: say that. They did say it would be like a
Speaker 1: DeAngelo and Friends versus, and then her came out there.
Speaker 1: Now you know, this was my one of my favorite
Speaker 1: Lauren Hill songs. Nothing even Matters with de'angelo and she
Speaker 1: also did her song best Part, which I loved, to
Speaker 1: her song with Dane of Caesar, So here is her.
Speaker 1: I believe I don't mean your love don't even matter? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was computing versus. I did he want to go
Speaker 1: back and listen to de'angelo's albums again. I was watching
Speaker 1: Conelo a fight on Saturday night, because I'm telling you
Speaker 1: that was a quick one. There was four rounds DeAngelo
Speaker 1: and friends versus I didn't know what that was. I
Speaker 1: didn't know what was battling his friends. I didn't know
Speaker 1: what was going on. I thought they was battling his friends.
Speaker 1: I thought he's bringing different autist out of the battle.
Speaker 1: But I thought and then somebody told me it was
Speaker 1: him versus Maxwell, so then I would have I was
Speaker 1: going that I don't know where that room was started.
Speaker 1: But then Swiss Beat said that it was supposed to
Speaker 1: be him and Maxwell, but they couldn't get it done. Now,
Speaker 1: I see that would have been a date night if
Speaker 1: they I knew if it was the Angelo versus Maxwell
Speaker 1: Saturday night, you know, that would have crafted a whole
Speaker 1: date night around that. But I didn't know what that
Speaker 1: was Saturday because it was cool, But they could have
Speaker 1: did a bit of a better job marketing because I
Speaker 1: didn't watch. I watched the replay though I watched it
Speaker 1: all right. Well, just so y'all know, Ghost Facing Ray
Speaker 1: Kuan are going to be doing an upcoming Say what,
Speaker 1: say you didn't know that. No, I didn't know that
Speaker 1: they birthed in each other. Yes, I don't like that.
Speaker 1: That's dope. I think it's dopey. How do they do
Speaker 1: the record? Ghost Face is my favorite rapper of all time? Ye,
Speaker 1: ghost Face versus Ray Kuan, I don't like that one
Speaker 1: because it's just like you got the whole Purple tape.
Speaker 1: That's a real celebration right there. Yeah, but they can't
Speaker 1: badly each What they could do is what they could
Speaker 1: do is whoever had the song on their album, they
Speaker 1: could use it when you do it the Purple tape then,
Speaker 1: but that was really Ray Kwan's album. On every song,
Speaker 1: ghost Face is on the cover of the album, just
Speaker 1: like maybe you go verse for verse. They can't do that.
Speaker 1: They got a battle to other people with Iron Man,
Speaker 1: is ghost Face, Ray kuon Capadonna, They they're all on
Speaker 1: the covered the album. They can't do that. But by
Speaker 1: the way, let's not act like ghost Face does not
Speaker 1: have the best catalog of any solo artists in Wu Tang.
Speaker 1: It's not even close. Let's be clear on that. Don't
Speaker 1: even we don't even think about it. Yeah, it's not
Speaker 1: nothing to think about. Okay, I know they there's some
Speaker 1: classic albums done. Ghost Face the best solo catalog of
Speaker 1: everybody in wou Tang. Okay, some great songs for girls.
Speaker 1: It's got ghost on them though, but Ray got a
Speaker 1: lot of joy. Purple Tape is the best album of all.
Speaker 1: Woutang Solo Stories was an amazing album. It was, but
Speaker 1: it ain't the Purple Tape. It's not that's not the
Speaker 1: Purple Tape. But ghost Face. Yeah, So it seems like
Speaker 1: y'all there think it would be a good versus. All right,
Speaker 1: well that is your rumor report, all right, to see
Speaker 1: I rather to see Ghosts and Ray go up against another,
Speaker 1: you know, great duo. Yeah. I think it's gonna be
Speaker 1: some great stories told in this of course, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be incredible. All right, Now, Front Patients, when we come back,
Speaker 1: when we're talking about well, let's tell talk about the
Speaker 1: let's talk about COVID and the vaccinations and what's happening.
Speaker 1: There's a new one that's going to be out possibly
Speaker 1: this week. All right, we'll get to that next. It's
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, cej Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club, Good morning, got
Speaker 1: a shout out to one of our newest family members,
Speaker 1: Omaha's Power one oh six points. Good morning, guys, Welcome
Speaker 1: to the family. Welcome to the family. All right, well,
Speaker 1: let's get into front page news. What we're starting, Well,
Speaker 1: let's talk about this third coronavirus vaccine that is now available.
Speaker 1: You know, there's the one by Maderna, another one by Fiser,
Speaker 1: and now that Johnson and Johnson one is here and
Speaker 1: looks like it's going to be available for distribution by tomorrow.
Speaker 1: It's a single dose, so there's no follow up visits
Speaker 1: and you don't have to schedule that second shot, and
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry that it's available at the
Speaker 1: right time. And there's some differences. They said, it does
Speaker 1: protect people with one dose, and it also does not
Speaker 1: have to be stored in those below zero negative eighty
Speaker 1: degrees to negative one hundred and twelve degrees or whatever
Speaker 1: that the other ones had to be. So now they're
Speaker 1: saying that this one can just be refrigerated. Drama, regular refrigerator.
Speaker 1: Drama's got the Supreme vaccine this weekend, didn't you. I
Speaker 1: don't know what that means. The supreme What does that mean? Supreme?
Speaker 1: Like the clothing companies. Ye didn't you say that. I
Speaker 1: did not say that. What did you say? Oh? Okay, congratulations,
Speaker 1: all right? Yea. They saying it's not as effective as
Speaker 1: devisor we're data shot correct. Well, yeah, they're saying that
Speaker 1: one's about sixty six percent effective as opposed to ninety
Speaker 1: five percent. But what they did say is that can
Speaker 1: be misleading because what they are saying it's about one
Speaker 1: hundred All of them are about one hundred percent effective
Speaker 1: at preventing hospitalizations and death. I mean, I guess you've
Speaker 1: got to take to take whichever one you can get
Speaker 1: your heads on. But that's what they're saying. Whichever one
Speaker 1: you can get. If you're gonna take one, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, I'd go for the ninety five. That's
Speaker 1: the one I wouldn't want to sixty six, you know, right,
Speaker 1: But you know it's good if you if they're saying
Speaker 1: it's almost one hundred percent effective at you know, you're
Speaker 1: not having to be in the hospital, not having any
Speaker 1: terrible symptoms or dying. Yeah, whichever one you can get,
Speaker 1: let's take it. Yeah, whatever one they're saying you could get,
Speaker 1: you take. Now the House has passed Joe Biden's one
Speaker 1: point nine trillion dollar COVID relief packets. So now that
Speaker 1: heads over to the Senate, and the Senate is expected
Speaker 1: to strip out that provision for a federal minimum wage
Speaker 1: after the Senate parliamentarian ruled against including it under the
Speaker 1: procedure known as reconciliation. So that means now that bill
Speaker 1: can pass with a simple majority vote, then it would
Speaker 1: have to go back to the House for a separate vote,
Speaker 1: and then Biden signs it into law. So how much
Speaker 1: how much that's gonna make the stimulus checks when they
Speaker 1: go out fourteen hundred dollars if you make less than
Speaker 1: seventy five thousand dollars a year. And it's also an
Speaker 1: increase in the child tax credit as well, so you
Speaker 1: know people need their money. Is just take it forever?
Speaker 1: Like what's going on? Let's get it all right? And
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is back. He was speaking and closing out
Speaker 1: the Conservative Conservative Political Action Conference, and some of the
Speaker 1: things that he addressed is women's sports. Joe Biden and
Speaker 1: the Democrats are even pushing policies that would destroy women's sports.
Speaker 1: A lot of new records are being broken in women's sports.
Speaker 1: Tait to say, that ladies, but get a lot of
Speaker 1: new records. They're being shattered. Young girls and women are
Speaker 1: in sense that they are now being forced to compete
Speaker 1: against those who are biological males. If this is not
Speaker 1: change women's sports as we know, it will die. They'll end,
Speaker 1: It'll end. Is that controversial? You know? Somebody said, well,
Speaker 1: that's gonna be very controversial. I said, that's okay. You
Speaker 1: haven't heard anything yet. Dam media, you don't have to
Speaker 1: cover Donald Trump anymore. He was the president before, so
Speaker 1: you had to listen to what came out of his mouth.
Speaker 1: But now if you're doing it, then you're just doing
Speaker 1: it for readings. People were also saying that he was
Speaker 1: going to start a new party, right, and so he
Speaker 1: did actually flat out deny that. We're not starting new parties.
Speaker 1: You know, they kept saying he's going to start a
Speaker 1: for a new party. We have to Republic Party. It's
Speaker 1: going to unite and be stronger than ever before. I
Speaker 1: am not starting a new party. I refuse to getting
Speaker 1: any debates about anything Trump says, because we shouldn't be
Speaker 1: entertaining Trump anymore. We know is he going to run
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, And that's something that some people
Speaker 1: are nervous about but it seems like he did teas
Speaker 1: that he's going to run. Who cares like, you can't play.
Speaker 1: This election was rigged and the Supreme Court and other
Speaker 1: courts didn't want to do anything about it. With your help,
Speaker 1: we will take back the House, We will win the Senate,
Speaker 1: and then a Republican president will make a triumphant return
Speaker 1: to the White House, and I wonder who that will be.
Speaker 1: We can't have these conversations about how the media shouldn't
Speaker 1: cover Trump. You know, social media should keep Trump, you know,
Speaker 1: off of off of their platforms, but then cover him
Speaker 1: when he talks. He's not the president no more. This
Speaker 1: is sparta um. Yeah, but you know he could potentially
Speaker 1: run again in twenty twenty. About him if you start
Speaker 1: getting ready now, man, there's nothing to talk about with Trump,
Speaker 1: like you can't. Literally, this is such hypocrisy and such
Speaker 1: a contradiction because if we wanted him shut shut up
Speaker 1: when he was president, now that he's not president, there's
Speaker 1: absolutely no reason to listen to anything that comes out
Speaker 1: of his mouth. Yeah, he still gets a lot of
Speaker 1: support though, ye still No, I don't think that I
Speaker 1: can't support him. Listen it's dangerous enough that we do
Speaker 1: need to know what's going on. Right, No, all right,
Speaker 1: well that is your front page news. All right, thank
Speaker 1: you guys, goodness gracious. All right, when we come back,
Speaker 1: Fredo Bang will be joining us. No, fraid O'bang is
Speaker 1: a new auto sign to deaf Jam. He's uh, he's dope,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna talk to him next and we're gonna

Speaker 1: best only fan of accounts to watch? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I watched so much I can't. You get tricked it

Speaker 1: then they hit you with the they hit you with
Speaker 1: the fee to subscribe, and then when you gonna click

Speaker 1: Angela yee. Charlomagne the guy we all the breakfast club.
Speaker 1: We're kicking it with new artist's are signed to def
Speaker 1: Jim fraid o'bang. Yeah, you don't go to church, but
Speaker 1: you do pray and believe in God. Yeah. I don't
Speaker 1: believe in church all the Bible, right, I saw you
Speaker 1: said it is soul cry So why don't you believe
Speaker 1: church of the Bible. I don't feel like I should
Speaker 1: pay for worship. I with you on the Bible even
Speaker 1: said you can't find God in a man made temple. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I'm with you, and I don't believe in organized religion.
Speaker 1: And then like the Bible contradicts yourself over and over
Speaker 1: and two when we were slaves, they had somebody to
Speaker 1: read us what they wanted us to read, not what
Speaker 1: we needed to know what I'm saying. And for three,
Speaker 1: it's been written rewritten a thousand times over and over
Speaker 1: and over by man. And then, if I'm not mistaken,
Speaker 1: the person who wrote it say God can't talk to
Speaker 1: him and told him write it. Now, I know a
Speaker 1: lot of people like that. To jail, how do you pay?
Speaker 1: You pay your head? Only are you getting on your
Speaker 1: knees and pray. Like when you pray, I ain't a lie.
Speaker 1: I'll just be I he's driving, I'll be like, thank
Speaker 1: you God for the blessings. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Who appreciate you? Do you really know a pastor who
Speaker 1: called a body? Yeah, a couple? Could you still go
Speaker 1: to the church knowing it? I go to church, But
Speaker 1: I mean if you would, you would you still listen
Speaker 1: to them knowing they did something like that. I have listened,
Speaker 1: but think here some of them still thinking, like I
Speaker 1: know one of them, Like I'm talking about big out
Speaker 1: the city. Any time he come back to the city.
Speaker 1: What the xp is that? You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like a pastor, a pastor man, you gotta got to
Speaker 1: tell his congregation what's going on. And by the way,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even mind that unless he's on the pulpit
Speaker 1: preaching against things like that. Yeah, but it just goes
Speaker 1: to show that like just church and it's like, I
Speaker 1: don't know a lot of people going here. Got you
Speaker 1: off for parole in twenty twenty three? Yeah, so how
Speaker 1: do you make sure that you don't go back? And
Speaker 1: you moved differently because it seems like these days rappers
Speaker 1: are the number one talk if everybody out there, and
Speaker 1: so much stuff that gets instigated on social media. Oh,
Speaker 1: I think about Jay because that's why I feel like
Speaker 1: everybody who go to jails at one point to get counseled.
Speaker 1: I still ain't gott of it because I just be
Speaker 1: working too much. But it really scared me, Like I
Speaker 1: I went to the whole and like I couldn't tell
Speaker 1: my dreams from reality. Wow tweeks. God, So I'll just
Speaker 1: be feeling for people who hadn't been there, like some
Speaker 1: people get sentence a year. I don't know how you
Speaker 1: do it. You know how strong you is when you
Speaker 1: get in there. You've seen so much at a young age,
Speaker 1: you know, experienced a lot of things, a lot of trauma.
Speaker 1: You talked about your your dad being bipolar. Now that
Speaker 1: you got money and you got success, what are you
Speaker 1: doing for your mental health orgin? Oh so you're staying busy.
Speaker 1: You don't have the trauma response. Yeah, Like I mean,
Speaker 1: like I, like I said, I'm in the point of
Speaker 1: my life tweet like I gotta like make it happen,
Speaker 1: and I gotta stay consistent as possible. So I ain't
Speaker 1: got time for self really, So I don't really find
Speaker 1: myself enjoying like going to clubs and I'm not getting
Speaker 1: paid and doing extra activities, like I really enjoyed slaying
Speaker 1: in my big playing a game, recording and working making money.
Speaker 1: But sometimes folks stay busy just because they're trying to
Speaker 1: avoid dealing with grief or pain or anything else. Probably,
Speaker 1: so probably I don't. I don't really like it's probably
Speaker 1: I haven't been in a relationship. I ain't got time
Speaker 1: to like feel for nobody, like really like in you know,
Speaker 1: and I don't like nobody having controlled my emotions. People
Speaker 1: kept trying to pair you up with neat and that's
Speaker 1: you even have to put that in the song, that
Speaker 1: you all are not together. Yeah, that happened. I've been
Speaker 1: going for years though, who I'm old? Who is she
Speaker 1: YouTube from Baton Rouge? Okay, I've been on her for years.
Speaker 1: But we're cool, We're tight. That's why are you smiling? Blush?
Speaker 1: You look embarrassed that dog? Is that some type of
Speaker 1: potential at least because we're getting we're getting another each other. Okay,
Speaker 1: right now, you like, would you like for it to
Speaker 1: be more? Yeah? I mean, if it's gonna go ahead,
Speaker 1: you're gonna go. You know what I'm saying a relationship,
Speaker 1: right is she's just getting out of a relationship. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So you don't want to
Speaker 1: be a rebound. You're gonna let it go how it goes.
Speaker 1: It's not just that, it's just I don't like what
Speaker 1: I don't like people have control of my emotions. So
Speaker 1: it's like, and I'm not want to jump into the
Speaker 1: relationship because I'm type like, I'll let you know, like
Speaker 1: I'm done. I sell you in tweet. Sometimes you get
Speaker 1: in your emotions a little on Twitter. I'm like, what's
Speaker 1: he got going on? Not listening Twitter? Am I the
Speaker 1: only person that just sit there and just think of
Speaker 1: the random things to say? Yeah? We used to do
Speaker 1: that and then we started getting really just sit there
Speaker 1: and just say random stuff. It being responsive to them,
Speaker 1: like it'll be something happens and then you tweet something
Speaker 1: and about what just happened. I don't know why, but
Speaker 1: stuff really just be happened, like coincidentally, Like I had
Speaker 1: tweeted a couple of times and they thought I was
Speaker 1: talking about her, Like I was like, I'll never call
Speaker 1: her her name, right, How does their ex boyfriend feel
Speaker 1: about you. Well, he never had no problem. You don't
Speaker 1: follow me posted to a song together. I don't know.
Speaker 1: You know a lot of YouTube rep oh got you,
Speaker 1: got you? But I know what a couple of months before,
Speaker 1: like before like me and have been like hanging around
Speaker 1: each other. People thought that she came to Miami and
Speaker 1: cheated on him with me, right, yeah, we never like
Speaker 1: even like we've seen each other. We never hug, kiss, nothing, nothing,
Speaker 1: none of that. Like, so it was like, I don't
Speaker 1: I don't even know how they even came about. Have
Speaker 1: you liked her like this whole time? That's why he
Speaker 1: followed you, that little gig, that little sneaky as he
Speaker 1: knew what was up. She a very beautiful man. Look
Speaker 1: at that. You look at that in the grass. But
Speaker 1: now earlier is what you did tweet? I really hate mother,
Speaker 1: I hate what was going on. I don't know. Just
Speaker 1: people remind you why you don't like him. I rather
Speaker 1: stayed in the house and play video games. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: like that line. That's why I said I got a
Speaker 1: lot of problems with because I refused to be fake. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that whole song actually was about a lot of
Speaker 1: things in my life because a lot of people don't know.
Speaker 1: When I was in jail, I had a certain certain
Speaker 1: people from a certain side that not posted for me
Speaker 1: and I don't not post with them, wanted me to
Speaker 1: be a part of them rat wise, Yeah, and I was.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm layed to the point to it, like
Speaker 1: I turned down lots of money, like to leave my people,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Or to be leaving your
Speaker 1: people's or is it leaving them leaving my organization and
Speaker 1: being a part of their organization? You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Don't you think at some point, um, if y'all did
Speaker 1: come together in Baton Rouge, you would stop a lot
Speaker 1: of the street beef, Like, like, what makes one side
Speaker 1: not be able to with the other side? Is it
Speaker 1: too far gone? I feel like most of the time,
Speaker 1: grown men can't have a conversation. They don't have a
Speaker 1: com mental capacity to have a conversation. But well, I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm most people. Most men can't have seem like you
Speaker 1: can have opening on this conversation. That's what I tried
Speaker 1: to That's why that's something I try to have. I
Speaker 1: feel like I have a special relationship with my fans
Speaker 1: because I try to be as open book as possible.
Speaker 1: Why not be the guy that say, hey man, but
Speaker 1: that's me. But why not you gotta call it like,
Speaker 1: let's sit down and let's have this conversation. Why not
Speaker 1: called for the conversation? I mean, I ain't called for,
Speaker 1: but a conversation was supposed to be at a legit
Speaker 1: like sit down with you know what I'm saying, but
Speaker 1: a young boy we're talking about Oh nah, it's just
Speaker 1: just everybody animos because they said there was animoster between
Speaker 1: y'all two? Was it? Is it something small that it
Speaker 1: can be square? I don't had no problem with him,
Speaker 1: everything that went on when I was in jail. I
Speaker 1: feel like it's just fall I posted. They felt like
Speaker 1: I supposed to pick up on it, you know, but
Speaker 1: don't about to speak for how I feel if I
Speaker 1: have a personal love for a person, like it had
Speaker 1: never changed until they do me something wrong, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, And he never did mean nothing wrong?
Speaker 1: All right? We got more with fraid o'bang. When we

Speaker 1: I stay out the way, own disrespect of the disrespect me,
Speaker 1: own no problems. So I didn't wanted to tell people
Speaker 1: who got to just prove a point and be like
Speaker 1: the police. And I ain't saying nothing. Let's say to
Speaker 1: the people, can wait? You cannot win. You said you
Speaker 1: know you moved military. What did that mean? Because you
Speaker 1: got the song no security with Kevin Gates And I'm
Speaker 1: sitting there thinking like maybe he should have security. I

Speaker 1: I'm being honestly I didn't have security and like events
Speaker 1: to it, like the label book, I'm like two half
Speaker 1: to like, you know, I got too much going on.
Speaker 1: But that's other than that, Like I would never bring
Speaker 1: the kid to my home town because like they're not
Speaker 1: gonna know how to move on this street or how
Speaker 1: long we got to pull up to this store or
Speaker 1: how you need to pull off for they don't know

Speaker 1: Boseman won for Best Performance by an Actor in Emotion
Speaker 1: Picture Drama, and Chellis Simone Ledward, his wife, actually accepted

Speaker 1: amplify that little voice inside of all of us that
Speaker 1: tells you you can, that tells you to keep going,
Speaker 1: that calls you back to what you are meant to be.

Speaker 1: on past it. And this happened, This took out. I mean,
Speaker 1: I gave everything that a great nipsy hustle says, we're
Speaker 1: here to give to an empty and I gave everything,
Speaker 1: and I couldn't give it to a more noble man.
Speaker 1: That's Chairman Fred Hampton. And I hope generations after this
Speaker 1: can see how brilliant he thought, how brilliantly he spoke,
Speaker 1: and how brilliantly he loved. He told me about myself
Speaker 1: made me grow as a man, and I appreciate with
Speaker 1: one my heart. There's a lot of information about how
Speaker 1: he died, but I hope you people out there will
Speaker 1: grow and learn about how incredibly he lived. Didn't it

Speaker 1: hey man, I don't care if you get the screen
Speaker 1: is ahead of time for the people that so it does.

Speaker 1: Best Director from Motion Picture was nomad land Chloe Jout
Speaker 1: and she was um. She was the second woman and
Speaker 1: the first Asian woman ever to win Best Director. I
Speaker 1: especially want to thank the nomads who shared their stories
Speaker 1: with us, and I asked one of them, Bob Well,
Speaker 1: to help me out here, and this is what he
Speaker 1: said about compassion. Compassion is a breakdown of all the
Speaker 1: barriers between us, a heart to heart bounding. Your pain
Speaker 1: is my pain. It's mingled and shared between us. Now,
Speaker 1: this is why I fell in love with making movies,
Speaker 1: because he gave us a chance to laugh and cry together,
Speaker 1: and they gave us a chance to learn from each
Speaker 1: other and talk more compassion for each other, all right.
Speaker 1: In addition, Best Motion Picture Animated went to Soul and
Speaker 1: here's Tracy Morgan and the golden glove goes soon. So
Speaker 1: what right it was because of the soul now, he
Speaker 1: tweeted out after Sorry soul, I was thinking about the
Speaker 1: pizza I was going to get from my guy sal
Speaker 1: on the way home. That's what it sounds like, the
Speaker 1: right name. You can't be black and soul though, King,
Speaker 1: there is no way in hell cannot be a black person.
Speaker 1: Innced soul. Okay, if it's one thing we should know,
Speaker 1: it's soul, all right, Soul train love, peace and soul
Speaker 1: soul glow. Tracy was hungry, bro, I don't care all
Speaker 1: who wanted sunds. And before we close this out, in
Speaker 1: some bad news, Mby did not get to be the
Speaker 1: new host of The Bachelor. Apparently Emanuel Acho is going
Speaker 1: to be the new host. So mad at that they
Speaker 1: did make that announcement. Sorry Envy. Where do we know
Speaker 1: Emanuel Acho from? He's an NFL player. He also we
Speaker 1: still work at as ESPN and I think now he
Speaker 1: works for Fox Sports. But he has that uncomfortable conversations
Speaker 1: with a black Man New York Times bestseller, and he
Speaker 1: also has a podcast where he sits down and has
Speaker 1: the discussions. I think he spoke to NFL Commissioner Roger
Speaker 1: Goodell on there as well, and he hates you want
Speaker 1: to throw his way envy? No, I like to see
Speaker 1: brothers winning, Okay, whatever it takes. But why why would
Speaker 1: you have been a better host than him? I've never
Speaker 1: seen a host before. Okay, but I do watch The Bachelor,
Speaker 1: and I'm a fan of the Bachelor, and I thought
Speaker 1: I would have did a great job. But shout out
Speaker 1: to that brother. Okay, mm looking at me, just waiting
Speaker 1: for a little hate to come to all right, Well
Speaker 1: that is your rumor report now, and you start your
Speaker 1: own start your own thing, man, start your own thing.
Speaker 1: What could it be called? I'm good? Who you give
Speaker 1: me your don Are you looking at like that? Hey?
Speaker 1: Donkey to day man. I'm telling you, racism exists in
Speaker 1: all forms. Man. It's a brother whose name I can't
Speaker 1: even pronounce. I think it's staying goodish a tis what
Speaker 1: he needs to come to the first that. I'm sure
Speaker 1: it's wrong. Wrong. I'm sure it's wrong as well. But
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this I'll tell you this. He got
Speaker 1: killed by a cock. We'll talk about it four after
Speaker 1: the hour. Oh okay, all right, okay, we'll get you
Speaker 1: sighted now. Nope, it's the breakfast club. Go morning. Let's
Speaker 1: don't be a dunk because right now you want some
Speaker 1: real It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if
Speaker 1: we ever feel I need to be a dog man
Speaker 1: with the heat, did she get the name? Please? I
Speaker 1: had become Donkey of the Day club, bitches, Yes, Dunkey
Speaker 1: today from Monday in March first goes to a human
Speaker 1: by the name of a players name Dramas Thank Thank
Speaker 1: Gala studies not keep in mind this story happened in India.
Speaker 1: But contrary to popular belief, Americans aren't the stupidest people
Speaker 1: in the world. Okay, yes, folks from other countries get
Speaker 1: to credit they deserve for being stupid. Absolutely they do.
Speaker 1: But what intrigued me about this story but made me
Speaker 1: want to share is the fact that there is really
Speaker 1: no right way to do the wrong thing. For some reason,
Speaker 1: there's always people who think they can reinvent the will
Speaker 1: in regards to wrong doing. They think that they can
Speaker 1: remix illegal activities in a way that they will avoid
Speaker 1: the inevitable fate that befall so many who have come
Speaker 1: before them. Drug dealers are usually the kings of trying
Speaker 1: to find the right way to do the wrong thing.
Speaker 1: It's impossible, okay. Drug dealers always think they're doing something new,
Speaker 1: always think they're doing something that can't get them caught,
Speaker 1: when the reality is they're making all the same mistakes
Speaker 1: that drug dealers before they made, and it's only a
Speaker 1: at a time before you end up in jail. Are
Speaker 1: dead Listen, illegal activities don't love anyone, Okay. Anytime you
Speaker 1: partake in illegal activity, you are taking a penitentiary chance,
Speaker 1: even worse, risking your life. And that's exactly what happened
Speaker 1: to this guy with to play his name a ndrames name,
Speaker 1: thank Golah Sutty. Yes, thang Gola okay, because he was
Speaker 1: participating in an illegal cockfight. Yes, and sovereign India. Cock
Speaker 1: fights are banned illegal and they need to be because
Speaker 1: they're dangerous, not just for the poetry involved, but for
Speaker 1: the owners of said cox and Thank Gola is an
Speaker 1: example of this. Let's go to VI the channel on
Speaker 1: YouTube for the report police an Indian man was stabbed
Speaker 1: to death by his own rooster after he attached a
Speaker 1: three inch knife to its leg for an illegal cockfight.
Speaker 1: Thank Golah Sutty forty five, was stabbed in the growing
Speaker 1: last week when the bird he had just armed for
Speaker 1: the fight fluttered in panic. Suttie was hit by the
Speaker 1: roosters knife in his growing and started bleeding heavily. Police
Speaker 1: Inspector jeev Un said Sunday, feeling that the victim died
Speaker 1: on his way to a local hospital. Police are now
Speaker 1: looking for over a dozen other people involved in organizing
Speaker 1: the deadly cock fight, warning that they could face up
Speaker 1: to two years in prison. I found guilty the irony
Speaker 1: of a cock aiming for the growing, Like you can't
Speaker 1: tell me the universe doesn't have a sense of humor.
Speaker 1: But let me tell you something, man. I read that
Speaker 1: last year, Okay, I read that last year a man
Speaker 1: was killed when a blade attached to his rooster's leg
Speaker 1: hit him in the neck during a cock fight. In
Speaker 1: twenty ten, A rooster to kill this owner by slashing
Speaker 1: his owner's juggle levine. All I'm getting from all of
Speaker 1: this is that chickens are fed to f up. Okay,
Speaker 1: chickens are like y'all asking too much of us. It's
Speaker 1: bad enough that we have to end up on your sandwiches.
Speaker 1: It's bad enough to dare use for your two piece
Speaker 1: spicy with red beans and rice. But now y'all want
Speaker 1: us to fight for. What do we not bring you
Speaker 1: great pleasure when you barbecue us, when you fry us,
Speaker 1: when you grill us. Imagine being a chicken and having
Speaker 1: to fight another chicken, both cocks looking at each other
Speaker 1: saying why are we doing this? All they're gonna do
Speaker 1: is bake us afterwards, so regardless of who wins, we
Speaker 1: still dinner. That's when the cocks divides a plan to
Speaker 1: turn on the humans, and I must say I'm here
Speaker 1: for it. Okay, I hate to see people lose their lives,
Speaker 1: but when you're doing something you got no business doing,
Speaker 1: these are usually the consequences. Not A rooster was briefly
Speaker 1: held at the local police station before it was sent
Speaker 1: to the poultry farm. Police officer B. Jeeven said they
Speaker 1: may need to produce it before the court. I am
Speaker 1: making none of this up. There is no sauce being
Speaker 1: put on this chicken story. No hot sauce, no barbecue sauce,
Speaker 1: no polynesia sauce, no red curry past, no coconut cream, nothing. Clearly,
Speaker 1: they do things different in India because the cock was
Speaker 1: in custody. Okay, there's pictures of it on social media.
Speaker 1: People were outraged because this cock was in custody, but
Speaker 1: the police officers provided this rooster grains the peck on
Speaker 1: while he was in custody. That was outraged because officers
Speaker 1: wouldn't have done this if this chicken was more dark
Speaker 1: meat than white meat. But since the chicken is more
Speaker 1: white meat than dark meat, it gets special privileges. Look, man,
Speaker 1: Racism is real everywhere. The moral of the story is okay.
Speaker 1: To be conscious is to be aware and respectful towards
Speaker 1: all living creatures, big and small. Chickens make up our
Speaker 1: world and are part of it all right. Treating animals
Speaker 1: humanely is a conscious trait, okay. Being aware of where
Speaker 1: all food comes from and how an animal is treated
Speaker 1: is essential. It is our duty, it's conscious human beings
Speaker 1: to treat all creatures with respect and dignity. This is
Speaker 1: why when I get me some popeyes or some calf
Speaker 1: season bow jangles from home cooked chicken, some nice jerk
Speaker 1: chicken from the Jamaican spot, I hold the chicken up
Speaker 1: to the sky the way raf Fiki held Simba up
Speaker 1: when Simba was born, and thank God for the life
Speaker 1: that I'm about to consume. Okay, chickens, you are loved,
Speaker 1: valued and appreciated. What came first, the chicken of the egg?
Speaker 1: I don't care. I eat both respectfully. So nobody should
Speaker 1: be disrespecting chickens by making y'all fight. Please give what's
Speaker 1: his name? Thank Gollah Sutty the biggest he huh so
Speaker 1: cruel to make cocks fight and didn't eat them afterwards.
Speaker 1: You want to eat chickens, chase them like we used
Speaker 1: to catch them. Pop that next? Okay? What that was
Speaker 1: a streckful way to do it. Y'all grow up in
Speaker 1: the country. Y'all never chased the chicken. You never chased
Speaker 1: the chicken and then caught it and popped his neck. No, okay,
Speaker 1: so you used to grabbing cocks breaking the neck. Excuse him? You?
Speaker 1: Do you? Have you ever eaten a rooster? Answer the question?
Speaker 1: Maybe I never killed it? Have you ever eaten a rooster? Though? Yes?
Speaker 1: So what what? What? I'm just saying? What have you?
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the rooster has been in your mouth?
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can say you can context.
Speaker 1: It's been in your mouth in the context. It's a
Speaker 1: context though we're talking roosters. Okay, all right, well thank
Speaker 1: you for that. Don kid to day so weird energy
Speaker 1: in the very weird man. Don't matter. When we come back.
Speaker 1: Mark lamont Hill will be joining us. We'll kicking with
Speaker 1: him when we come back. He has a new book out.
Speaker 1: It's The Breakfast Club. Come Morning, The Breakfast Club Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in
Speaker 1: the building. Yes, indeed, the brother Marc lamont Hill. Welcome,
Speaker 1: broll somebody all. Good to see you all again. Mark
Speaker 1: is here. He has written another book. I don't know
Speaker 1: how you and Michael Leric Dyson do it. I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know. I don't even know this.
Speaker 1: Do you just spend all your extra time writing? I
Speaker 1: had I had COVID this summer, so that gave me
Speaker 1: like like like uninterrupted time for like three months. Got you?
Speaker 1: He said, three months? You got you? Got COVID for
Speaker 1: three months? No, but I ain't go out for two
Speaker 1: months after I got and I was scared to go
Speaker 1: back outside. Okay, all right, yeah, because I, like charm said,
Speaker 1: write in the book. It takes a lot out of you,
Speaker 1: takes a lot of in Like I've been writing a book.
Speaker 1: Me and my wife wrote this book for that comes
Speaker 1: out next year, and we almost done, like we have
Speaker 1: to finish line. And it just seemed like it just
Speaker 1: took forever, took everything out of you, bringing up old memories,
Speaker 1: good and bad. It takes a lot out of you.
Speaker 1: Oh it's the worst. Now, I tell everybody wants to
Speaker 1: be a writer, you gotta treat writing like an appointment.
Speaker 1: A lot of times we write when we have free time,
Speaker 1: like I go to the gym, I go to the store,
Speaker 1: I go to work, and then if I got time left,
Speaker 1: I'll write. But what you gotta do is you got
Speaker 1: to writing on your calendar and say right to three
Speaker 1: hours I'm writing. So somebody say, you know you're gonna
Speaker 1: go out now I'm writing from this time. Treat writing
Speaker 1: like therapy. Treat writing like church had that block of time,
Speaker 1: and then over the course of the year, the two
Speaker 1: hours turning too you know, one hundred hours or seven
Speaker 1: hundred hours or a thousand hour, however much time you do,
Speaker 1: and then you got a book. The name of the
Speaker 1: book is except for Palestine. How do you know before
Speaker 1: we get into the book, how do you know what
Speaker 1: topics you want to turn into a book, or what
Speaker 1: topics you just want to tweet about, or what topics
Speaker 1: you may just want to write a blog about. How
Speaker 1: do you know this is what you want to write
Speaker 1: a book about. That's a good question, man, Now that
Speaker 1: you're in the kind of the book business, it's one
Speaker 1: of the things you got to think about all the time.
Speaker 1: It's that you know, it's something that might have me
Speaker 1: hype today, but in twenty four months, will people still
Speaker 1: care about it? Right? That's that's the biggest question I had,
Speaker 1: Like if like, the guerrilla glue story is interesting as
Speaker 1: hell to me and I want to write about it,
Speaker 1: but I know that in twenty four months, nobody's even
Speaker 1: gonna remember that that happened, right, And with the Palestine book,
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, this is this is an in
Speaker 1: eternal topic. People on the left who ignore Palestine has
Speaker 1: been forever, So that's something I know will go. And
Speaker 1: then the other thing is, honestly, it's what do black
Speaker 1: people need you know, this is the first book I've
Speaker 1: written that isn't about black people, right except for Palestine.
Speaker 1: Is the first book I've written it wasn't directly tied
Speaker 1: to black people. And normally I'm saying, what are our
Speaker 1: biggest issues? Policing, mental health, education, and so I try
Speaker 1: to write about the issues that I think will leave
Speaker 1: our community better than I found it. So why this book?
Speaker 1: So let's break down this book. You know, it's interesting.
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I got fired from CNN a couple
Speaker 1: of years ago, and part of it, and part of
Speaker 1: it is like, you know, right, like I'm not going
Speaker 1: to be silenced on an issue just because you know,
Speaker 1: I get fired from a job, or because I lose opportunity.
Speaker 1: I gotta be principal. I gotta keep going, right, you
Speaker 1: got you gotta work through that. But also I felt
Speaker 1: I had actually started this book before then, and I
Speaker 1: wanted to be in a position where I could actually
Speaker 1: tell the story of what it means to be progressive
Speaker 1: and and and I've been an activist since I was
Speaker 1: sixteen years old. I've been organized against police brutality, against UH,
Speaker 1: for immigrants rights, you know, the freem media, all that stuff,
Speaker 1: and the left, the hype about all those issues, and
Speaker 1: then when you get to Israel Palestine, they'd be like,
Speaker 1: I don't know about that one, you know, or they
Speaker 1: get funny with their calculation. And so for me, it
Speaker 1: was important to tell that story right now because we
Speaker 1: got into a new presidency, we got an opportunity to
Speaker 1: change some things. Right, So this is about Palestine, but
Speaker 1: it's also about a bigger conversation about who do we
Speaker 1: want Joe Biden to be? Who? What are we gonna
Speaker 1: make him be? Is he gonna be the status quo
Speaker 1: or is it gonna be something different? And so for me,
Speaker 1: Palestine is just is one of many issues where we
Speaker 1: can make that change. You know, Mark, you said, you
Speaker 1: know people, you are a voice in our community, right,
Speaker 1: so black people look for you for information and a
Speaker 1: lot of other things. Why should black people care about
Speaker 1: what's going on in Palestine? What's the parallels I think
Speaker 1: about Palestine as an anti racist struggle? Right when there's
Speaker 1: a professor Ruth Wilson Gilmore that talks about racism and
Speaker 1: for her, racism is a system that could that subjects
Speaker 1: certain people to premature death right here in the United States.
Speaker 1: That the thing that makes you more likely to die early.
Speaker 1: The thing that makes you more likely to die in COVID,
Speaker 1: the thing that makes you more likely to pay more
Speaker 1: for insurance, the thing that makes you more likely to
Speaker 1: get efiicted and get kicked out of school and get
Speaker 1: arrested and get executed. It's being black. And so in
Speaker 1: Palestine and in Israel, the thing that makes you more likely,
Speaker 1: the thing that makes you socially vulnerable is being racialized
Speaker 1: as a Palestinian. And so for me, part of it
Speaker 1: is saying, look in the same way we cared about
Speaker 1: South Africa because it was the right thing to do,
Speaker 1: but it was an anti racist struggle, in the same
Speaker 1: way that we could look in other countries to see
Speaker 1: an anti racist struggle. This is an anti racist struggle.
Speaker 1: The other thing is our fates are bound together. Right.
Speaker 1: A white supremacy don't got a passport right, It doesn't
Speaker 1: stop at the border. White supremacy is a global system.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna dismant a white supremacy. If we're gonna
Speaker 1: dismantle racism, we're going to dismantle sexism, homophobia or whatever.
Speaker 1: We have to look globally. And also, I think that
Speaker 1: there's value and just doing it because it's the right
Speaker 1: thing to do. You know, there are if if Jewish
Speaker 1: people were under occupation in Israel right now about Palestinians,
Speaker 1: I'd be fighting on behalf of my Jewish brothers and sisters,
Speaker 1: right just like I fight for Jewish brothers and sisters
Speaker 1: here in the United States and around the world against
Speaker 1: anti Semitism. You know, I fight for the rights of
Speaker 1: people who are vulnerable, no matter where they are, whether
Speaker 1: it's it's it's Muslims in Cashmil or Keshmir or in China,
Speaker 1: leakers in China. I don't care where it is. My
Speaker 1: job is to speak out because that's how I was taught.
Speaker 1: That's how I was trained. What are the misconceptions about
Speaker 1: the Palestine? Israel struggle to break that down a little
Speaker 1: bit because a lot of people might not know or
Speaker 1: might have forgotten because we have a poke. I think
Speaker 1: the last time we spoke about it was actually when
Speaker 1: you when you were here, Yea. The biggest misconception is
Speaker 1: that this one is that this is then people always
Speaker 1: been fighting, that's just what they do, right m We
Speaker 1: had the same challenge with black people. Right if if
Speaker 1: there is a shooting in thirty people die in Chicago
Speaker 1: over the weekend. You know, we might be like damn,
Speaker 1: But in the back of a lot of people's minds,
Speaker 1: because of how white supremacy has trained us, we're also
Speaker 1: kind of like, yeah, that's what we do, right, We
Speaker 1: kill each other. And so people aren't outraged. But if
Speaker 1: I say thirty people died in Westchester this weekend, there
Speaker 1: was a shooting in Connecticut, people are like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: what happened? Who died? Who? Has there been an arrest?
Speaker 1: We need more because there's a sense that this shouldn't
Speaker 1: happen here. So part of one of the misconceptions is
Speaker 1: that Arabs and just be fighting, right, and they've been
Speaker 1: doing this for centuries. This is not a centuries long fight.
Speaker 1: The second misconception is that this is a religious battle.
Speaker 1: This is a battle overland. This is a battle. This
Speaker 1: is a struggle against colonialism. This is a struggle for
Speaker 1: people's rights, to get people's homes back, to get the
Speaker 1: right to move free, leader the right to be a
Speaker 1: full citizen. This is a battle. They ain't got nothing,
Speaker 1: I want to say, nothing to do religion. But it's
Speaker 1: not censured in religion. Yeah, I think it's very hard
Speaker 1: for black people in America to see themselves standing up
Speaker 1: and fighting for someone in another country, because we're still
Speaker 1: battling oppression and systemic racism here word, you know, And
Speaker 1: that's why my priority issue is battling systemic racism in
Speaker 1: the United States. But I do think there's value and
Speaker 1: solidarity if you think about because a lot of these
Speaker 1: same people that say that say they love Malcolm X.
Speaker 1: But Malcolm X writes writes an article in Egyptian Gazette
Speaker 1: and Belief September of nineteen sixty four called Zionist Logic
Speaker 1: where he's critiquing Disraeli occupation. You know, Martin Luther King
Speaker 1: was saying, we can't go to Vietnam. And here's why.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean when you think about our
Speaker 1: biggest leaders, they had global visions, They had a global
Speaker 1: analysis and so. And it wasn't just because they were
Speaker 1: good people who cared about people elsewhere, although that was true.
Speaker 1: They understood that we can't disconnect this thing. We can't
Speaker 1: in war and poverty and racism if we don't have
Speaker 1: a global vision. And so I get why black people
Speaker 1: like look, I can't worry about the Palestinians like I
Speaker 1: worry about getting shot by the police. Right here, I
Speaker 1: ain't mad at you. But for those of us that
Speaker 1: have that global vision, it's for us to make those
Speaker 1: connections and also to understand why people are dealing with
Speaker 1: the dealing with what they're dealing with. Right here, I
Speaker 1: keep it lock. We got more with Mark Lamart here.
Speaker 1: When we come back, it's the breakfast club come morning morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy and July Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the breakfast club. We have Mark Lamart Hill
Speaker 1: in the building. So what do you think Joe Biden
Speaker 1: will do to help the Middle East? Nothing? The United
Speaker 1: States doesn't have feelings, it has interests. And the United
Speaker 1: States has an interest in controlling the Middle East, just
Speaker 1: like the British had in the French had an interesting
Speaker 1: control the Middle East, just like the British and the
Speaker 1: French and so forth and began, you know, Belgium and
Speaker 1: whoever had interest in controlling Africa. The United States and
Speaker 1: go do nothing different. One of the things I talked
Speaker 1: about in um and except for Palestine, is that Donald
Speaker 1: Trump in many ways becomes the boogeyman. We say, oh,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump moved the embassy the US Embassy to Jerusalem,
Speaker 1: which goes against international law. Oh he cut these funds,
Speaker 1: he did that. True, But Donald Trump is just continuing
Speaker 1: a bipartisan American policy in the Middle East. We have
Speaker 1: We have plundered the Middle East and Africa under Trump,
Speaker 1: under Clinton, under Bush, Obama, under Carter, all the way back.
Speaker 1: So I don't expect Biden to be any different. It's
Speaker 1: not just on the Middle East, it's on other issues.
Speaker 1: It's Biden better than Trump, a million times better. Am
Speaker 1: I glad I voted for Biden over Trump. Absolutely, I
Speaker 1: ain't lost a minute to sleep about that. But I
Speaker 1: also manage my expectations, my vision for what Joe Biden
Speaker 1: is going to do. It is more about what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do. If we organize and push him, he'll go
Speaker 1: somewhere in the seventies. He didn't want to desegregate schools.
Speaker 1: He was against gay marriagement before he was for it.
Speaker 1: He was, you know, you're going down to listen to
Speaker 1: the crime. But all stuff we already know. But we
Speaker 1: pushed him again. Politicians don't have feelings, they have interest
Speaker 1: and until we make him do better, way and gonna
Speaker 1: get better. So I don't I don't put my hope
Speaker 1: in politicians. I put my faith into people. And congratulations too,
Speaker 1: I see that you You're gonna be on the Black
Speaker 1: News Channel. Yes, so I'm real hype about this. Man.
Speaker 1: I got two new jobs this year, despite being I've
Speaker 1: been canceled a lot of times. Not as many times
Speaker 1: as you, but I've been canceled a lot of times.
Speaker 1: We've been canceled a lot, but it's like annual now
Speaker 1: for me. So so I got a job at Al Jazero,
Speaker 1: which is where I'm at right now. I'm about to
Speaker 1: start my show I'll call Upfront and now I'm also
Speaker 1: at Black News Channel, which is a channel that started
Speaker 1: a year ago but COVID hit. We got new leadership,
Speaker 1: we got a whole great lineup, and I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: an eight o'clock news show eight pm on Black News Channel,
Speaker 1: wearing fifty two million homes. So this isn't like Bootleg TV.
Speaker 1: We're gonna be on all the major cable networks. We're
Speaker 1: in all of them now. My show launch is the
Speaker 1: first week in April. It's gonna be called Black News Tonight.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have black people on. It's gonna be I'm
Speaker 1: trying to do what we did at BT, and I'm
Speaker 1: still at BET by the way, I'm trying to do
Speaker 1: what we did at BT, which is to have black
Speaker 1: news but not just politics. I really and someways I'm
Speaker 1: trying to do what y'all do. It's like politics is important,
Speaker 1: we got to talk about it. But like I mentioned
Speaker 1: earlier that the really Blue story is something that I
Speaker 1: would have talked about right and had black women talk
Speaker 1: about why this story is important and why we shouldn't
Speaker 1: be clowning that girl. I'd have some I would have
Speaker 1: the conversation about drugs. I want to have the conversation
Speaker 1: about music. Bobby Shmurder's home, I want to have the
Speaker 1: conversation about Look, why are we celebrating Bobby Shmurder. But
Speaker 1: let me be very clear, I'm celebrating Bobby Murther shout
Speaker 1: out Bobby Smurder because I want people, but a lot
Speaker 1: of people to outside like, why would you be celebrating
Speaker 1: me the seven years in prison? I think because he
Speaker 1: ain't rat and I respect that, And people would be like,
Speaker 1: why are you, as a PhD holding professor, celebrating somebody
Speaker 1: for not ratting? Because it's an ethical and moral principle
Speaker 1: we gotta uphold and it's a deeper issue. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: changed the language a little bit too, right because for me,
Speaker 1: I totally understand the not ratting thing. I respect Bobby's
Speaker 1: murder and Rowdy Rebel because we live in an era
Speaker 1: where nobody wants to be held accountable for the consequences
Speaker 1: of their actions. Bobby and Rowdy where they held themselves accountable. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: they went and did their time. I respect that they
Speaker 1: knew that it was consequences and repercussions to the things
Speaker 1: that they did, and they did it. They didn't bring
Speaker 1: nobody else down in the process. They just went and
Speaker 1: hands of their handle. That's what I respect. Absolutely. I
Speaker 1: respect that too. And and but part of it's also
Speaker 1: about keeping your words. So it's about being accountable for
Speaker 1: your actions. Also about keeping your word. If the three
Speaker 1: of us go and commit a crime and I'm like, yo,
Speaker 1: I gotcha, no matter what happened, you know, whoever get caught,
Speaker 1: everybody don't say it, and then I get caught and
Speaker 1: I start saying it. That's an ethical and moral issue,
Speaker 1: and it's not it's not like I'm turning you in
Speaker 1: because I want justice. I'm turning you in so that
Speaker 1: I can be out, you know what I mean. That's why,
Speaker 1: that's why Takashi is such a problematic figure for me.
Speaker 1: For me, he's a terrible person, and the fact that
Speaker 1: he's on the street and other people are in jail
Speaker 1: says that snitching culture and rac culture doesn't even protect
Speaker 1: it doesn't keep any moral stability in our nation. That's
Speaker 1: all about locking people up. So what so if I say,
Speaker 1: like Takashi, it's not because you know, I'm trying to
Speaker 1: you know, I'm trying to live some life. It's not
Speaker 1: about none of that, right, It's about me trying to
Speaker 1: hold a standard for our community. Yeah, I'm glad that
Speaker 1: you have a show, because I think it's a shame that,
Speaker 1: you know, CNN, MSNBC, throughout the week, there's only two
Speaker 1: shows hosted by black people. You got Joy Read on
Speaker 1: MSNBC and Down Lemon on CNN. Throughout the whole rest
Speaker 1: of the day on CNN MSNBC, it's just white people. CNN.
Speaker 1: It is all Literally, you can watch CNN from ten
Speaker 1: am to whatever time Don Lemon comes on, and it's
Speaker 1: just white women, white women, white women, white women. Then
Speaker 1: and it's and Cooper, Don Lemon and the Cooper Cuomo
Speaker 1: and Don Lemon, right exactly. And you know how it's
Speaker 1: sound like I'm hating because I got fired, but like
Speaker 1: that's not what TV is supposed to look like, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? And we need more representation. But
Speaker 1: the problem is we live in a world where black
Speaker 1: it's seen as particular and white it's seen as universal.
Speaker 1: So if that's why you have all white bachelors, right,
Speaker 1: that's why Living Singles a black show when we friendly
Speaker 1: got a black batchelor now though we finally got one
Speaker 1: now violently after twenty four seasons. Right, this is the
Speaker 1: most racist season of The Bachelor I've seen people going
Speaker 1: to antibello parties on. That's what I'm saying, Like the
Speaker 1: black but what happens right, people say, oh, it's a
Speaker 1: black person, that's not for us. If it's white, it's
Speaker 1: for everyone. Friends is for everybody. Living singles with black people,
Speaker 1: same damn show. Oh right, we have to until people
Speaker 1: understand the black people are human beings with a universal experience.
Speaker 1: We won't have that. Now. I don't care whether the
Speaker 1: white people ever see me as human. I'm past that
Speaker 1: stage in my life now. I'm about what do black
Speaker 1: people think? What do black people need? And that's why
Speaker 1: I'm happy to be at BT. That's what I'm happy
Speaker 1: to be at B and C. That's something happy to
Speaker 1: be at out to zero and I'm happy to have
Speaker 1: these damn jobs I have to getting fired for two
Speaker 1: years and you know what I mean? Look, you know
Speaker 1: you said something real quickly, and we can't end on
Speaker 1: this like, man, if they can't ever see us as
Speaker 1: human right, if we can't get human rights, how are
Speaker 1: we ever gonna give a civil rights right? That's right? Um,
Speaker 1: The idea that black people are human is a relatively
Speaker 1: new idea to a whole lot of people. For some,
Speaker 1: it's a futuristic one. You know. Um, we have to
Speaker 1: either convince the world that we're human, which has not
Speaker 1: worked because that's not how white supremacy works. Or we
Speaker 1: have to get to a space of saying I don't
Speaker 1: care and building our own and fighting and having a
Speaker 1: real people's struggle for justice. But that means we got
Speaker 1: to support each other. We gotta stand up for each other.
Speaker 1: That's why the snitching thing bothers me so much. Right,
Speaker 1: It's not some some street ship to me. It's about
Speaker 1: saying what's our internal code, what's our value for ourselves?
Speaker 1: What can we do, what can we build? That's rightly, well,
Speaker 1: thank you for joining us, brother, except for Palestines out
Speaker 1: right now, that's right, that's it. That's it. They called
Speaker 1: me to say, y'all love, y'all appreciate it's the breakfast clubs,
Speaker 1: breakfast club all right. Well. Lebron James responded to soccer
Speaker 1: players Latan Ibrahimovich, did I say right, criticisms of him
Speaker 1: being politically active, Now, here's what's Latin said. He's a
Speaker 1: phenomenal in what he's doing. But I don't like when
Speaker 1: people when they have some kind of statutes and they're
Speaker 1: going and they do politics at the same time what
Speaker 1: they're doing, I mean, do what you're good at. I
Speaker 1: play football because I'm the best in playing football. I
Speaker 1: don't do politics. If I would be a political politician,
Speaker 1: I would do politics. Well. Lebram responded and said that
Speaker 1: he does need to use his platform for what people
Speaker 1: are going through and students as well. Here's what he said.
Speaker 1: You know, I will never shut up about things that's um,
Speaker 1: that's wrong. Um. I preach about my people. When I
Speaker 1: preach about equality, social injustice, racism, things that go on
Speaker 1: in our community, because I was a part of my
Speaker 1: community at one point and seeing any things that was
Speaker 1: going on. And I know that you know what's going
Speaker 1: on still because I have a group of three hundred
Speaker 1: plus kids at my school that's going through the same
Speaker 1: thing and they need a voice, and I'm their voice.
Speaker 1: I'm their voice, and I use my platform to continue
Speaker 1: to share a light on everything that may be going on,
Speaker 1: not only in my community, but around you know, this
Speaker 1: country and around the world. Yeah. In addition, Lebron went
Speaker 1: on to say that Latin was a hypocrite because he
Speaker 1: said that Latin used his own fame to speak out
Speaker 1: on issues of racism in Sweden. So you can't talk
Speaker 1: about me not speaking out, but then you're over here
Speaker 1: speaking out. Yeah. He basically told Lebron to shut up
Speaker 1: in dribble. And I think whenever you have a platform,
Speaker 1: you should speak out against injustice. And I don't understand
Speaker 1: how that football player doesn't understand that if black people
Speaker 1: are experiencing injustice in America, a black person has every
Speaker 1: right to feel a way and speak out against it.
Speaker 1: And the NBA players, you know, they're very vocal. They
Speaker 1: have every right to be vocal, except when it comes
Speaker 1: to any injustices folks maybe experiencing at the hands of
Speaker 1: the Chinese government. Yeah, I don't see why you have
Speaker 1: to be one dimensional, Like why can't you play sports
Speaker 1: but also care about what happens to your people, especially
Speaker 1: why can't you especially if you're black. If you're black,
Speaker 1: you're going to care about what happens to other black people,
Speaker 1: just like you know, Jerrymy Lynn. I'm sure as the
Speaker 1: Asian man cares about everything that's happening with Asian people
Speaker 1: right now, Like, how do you expect them not to
Speaker 1: speak out about that? True? All right now, Oprah, They
Speaker 1: gave a first look at her sit down interview that
Speaker 1: she has but Megan Marco and Prince Harry and there's
Speaker 1: a teaser available now a CBS primetime special, and here
Speaker 1: is a preview of that. Were you silent or were
Speaker 1: you silenced? I just want to make it clear to
Speaker 1: everybody there is no subject that's off limits, almost unsurvivable.
Speaker 1: It sounds like there was a breaking point. My biggest
Speaker 1: concerns history repeating itself. You've said some pretty shocking things
Speaker 1: here hold women. So it's going to air Mark seventh
Speaker 1: by the way, who that is now? Meg and Marco
Speaker 1: and Prince Harry. Oh okay, you know they actually left
Speaker 1: from being a duke in the Duchess of Sussex and
Speaker 1: you know, left Buckingham Palace and it was a big
Speaker 1: deal when it happened. And she talks about a lot
Speaker 1: of things that she experienced and being attacked all the
Speaker 1: time and the trauma from that. So it's interesting conversation
Speaker 1: and it's their first major broadcast they're doing since giving
Speaker 1: up their senior royal duties, and they said that it's
Speaker 1: according to sources, it's the best interview she's ever done.
Speaker 1: Weren't they both to start a podcast that we're supposed
Speaker 1: to spotify? Is someone all right? Now? Tiger Woods has
Speaker 1: also made his first comments since his crash happened, and
Speaker 1: he said, it's hard to explain how touching today was
Speaker 1: when I turned on the TV and saw all the
Speaker 1: red shirts. That's in reference to his peers wearing his
Speaker 1: signature Sunday outfit red shirt and black pants during the
Speaker 1: final round of the wcg Workday Championship. He said, to
Speaker 1: every golfer and every fan, you are truly helping me
Speaker 1: get through this tough time, okay. You know they're saying
Speaker 1: that they believe I saw a FORENS expert was saying,
Speaker 1: it seems like he must have fell asleep behind the wheel.
Speaker 1: That's what they're they're thinking happened so far, all right,
Speaker 1: And Lady Gaga is gonna pay it over five hundred thousand.
Speaker 1: She's gonna pay a five hundred thousand dollars reward to
Speaker 1: a person, a mystery woman who returned her bulldog safe
Speaker 1: and sound. If you guys heard this story, somebody actually
Speaker 1: violently abducted her dogs from her dogwalker, Ryan Fisher, who's
Speaker 1: also her close friend, and shot him in the chest.
Speaker 1: Her third dog escaped the attack and was later found
Speaker 1: by police. And now a woman has found these dogs
Speaker 1: and is returning them, and she's getting that five hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars reward. They were tied up in an alley
Speaker 1: or something like that, right into a pole or something,
Speaker 1: actually getting their five hundred thousand. She's well, you know,
Speaker 1: some people are saying that they don't think that's a
Speaker 1: good idea because now it's going to encourage other people
Speaker 1: to attack and steal dogs to be able to return
Speaker 1: them for people. Get Lady Gaga's dogs, and I'm sure
Speaker 1: Lady Gaga is gonna have some security. If she could
Speaker 1: pay five thousand dollars to get a dog back, she
Speaker 1: could have security for dogs. Did they didn't arrest the people?
Speaker 1: I don't think they know who it is, yes, alleged.
Speaker 1: I'm sure if they do enough digging they can find them.
Speaker 1: Damn Yeah, and they are because I'm sure the people
Speaker 1: that are that stole that dog went and got them
Speaker 1: a front person to turn the dog getting that happy.
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, all right, And the Source Awards
Speaker 1: are coming back after a seventeen year hiatus. Lindell McMillan
Speaker 1: is spearheading the return of the award show. He said,
Speaker 1: hip hop needs its premiere award show back after every
Speaker 1: award show, our social media at the Source explodes, so
Speaker 1: back by popular demand. Yeah, I mean I do think
Speaker 1: hip hop needs an award show for sure. I don't
Speaker 1: know about this hit. Maybe next year, yeah, because I
Speaker 1: don't want to do virtual. Yeah, you shouldn't do it
Speaker 1: virtual like the relaunch it the Social Wars definitely shouldn't
Speaker 1: be virtual. Gotta be live all right now. The New
Speaker 1: York Times has done an article about TI and Tiny
Speaker 1: being accused of sexual abuse. According to an attorney, they
Speaker 1: said that they are gonna they are asking authorities to
Speaker 1: launch a criminal investigation after dozens of women have come
Speaker 1: forward with allegations of sexual abuse. They're saying right now,
Speaker 1: at least eleven different women have come eleven accusers have
Speaker 1: come forward, and according to Ti and Tiny, they're saying
Speaker 1: that it is a shakedown and their attorney is denying
Speaker 1: the accusations. And a statement that was provided to SPEND,
Speaker 1: they said, Clifford Ti and Tamika Harris denying the strongest
Speaker 1: possible terms, these unsubstantiated and baseless allegations. We are confident
Speaker 1: that if these claims are thoroughly and fairly investigated, no
Speaker 1: charges will be forthcoming. Yeah. I mean that's why the
Speaker 1: investigation is good, because now they have to dig into
Speaker 1: those claims. So let due process do what due process do.
