Speaker 1: has to do with gorilla glue. He earned it. I mean,
Speaker 1: today's might as well just be a Judas in the
Speaker 1: Black Side. There. We're playing songs off the soundtrack too. Yes,
Speaker 1: we're gonna started off with this. This is a song
Speaker 1: everybody's been asking about. I think it was the track
Speaker 1: listing was leaked a couple of days ago. This is
Speaker 1: jay Z Nipsey Hustle. What it feel like? What it
Speaker 1: feel like? Credible? We're gonna be playing this every hour
Speaker 1: on the hour. So feels like r I P to
Speaker 1: the Big krypt Nip Beautiful black Man taking from us
Speaker 1: too soon. Can't help but listen to that record and
Speaker 1: feel happy, sad. Also, Sean Carter the greatest c of
Speaker 1: all time? Right at this point, it's not debatable, right,
Speaker 1: I didn't never debate on that. Who did you debate
Speaker 1: that with you? I mean, I mean we all have
Speaker 1: our favorite, right, I'm like, my favorite is ghost Face, right,
Speaker 1: it's my favorite rapper of all times. Whole is in
Speaker 1: my top five. Hole is my favorite. But if you're
Speaker 1: being objective, you would have to say he's the greatest
Speaker 1: of all time. My opinion hands there. But I wonder
Speaker 1: if we grade Whole want a curve because he's fifty one,
Speaker 1: and in hip hop we don't think someone should still
Speaker 1: be great at that age. I wonder, No, I think
Speaker 1: he did his damn thing in his twenties. I think
Speaker 1: he did his damn thing in his thirties. I think
Speaker 1: he did his thing in his forties. Be still barn
Speaker 1: people up, still born people up. Yeah, all right, well,
Speaker 1: let's get in some front page news where we starting you? Well,
Speaker 1: you know today is the last day with House impeachment managers. Uh,
Speaker 1: first of all, they finalized presenting their case and they
Speaker 1: are they adjourned yesterday until noon today, and so right
Speaker 1: now the defense is going to be making their case
Speaker 1: and then that should be it. Now let's talk about
Speaker 1: Jamie Raskin, the lead impeachment manager. He thanked the members
Speaker 1: of the Senate for the close attention and seriousness of
Speaker 1: purpose that they demonstrated during their presentations and said this,
Speaker 1: The question here is not whether President Trump committed a
Speaker 1: crime under the Federal Code or DC law or the
Speaker 1: law of any state. Impeachment does not result in criminal penalties.
Speaker 1: Impeachment was created for a purpose separate and distinct from
Speaker 1: criminal punishment. It was created to prevent and deter elected
Speaker 1: officials who swear an oath to represent America but then
Speaker 1: commit dangerous offenses against our republic. That's a constitutional crime.
Speaker 1: I don't know what he's saying, because it sounds like
Speaker 1: a lot of legal jogging. I don't understand what it
Speaker 1: sounds like. He's saying Trump should be in jail. Well,
Speaker 1: he's saying, this is not criminal, This will not result
Speaker 1: in him ending up in jail. This is an impeachment
Speaker 1: child that has to do with politics, So this has
Speaker 1: nothing to do well, yeah, a crime, but this is
Speaker 1: not a criminal case. So that's something that would have
Speaker 1: to be done federally, this says. So that's a whole
Speaker 1: other situation, all right. So right now, defense attorneys are
Speaker 1: arguing there's no direct link between actions of the rioters
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump, and so that's what they're trying to say.
Speaker 1: But I think the best witnesses are the actual rioters themselves,
Speaker 1: because they use a lot of their video footage and
Speaker 1: a lot of them that got arrested what they had
Speaker 1: to say, and a lot of them were saying basically,
Speaker 1: they were doing what they thought the president wanted them
Speaker 1: to do. They thought they were acting on behalf of
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. So right, so some people feel like some
Speaker 1: Republicans feel like it's not legal to even be having
Speaker 1: this proceeding right now because Donald Trump's not in office.
Speaker 1: So that's their easy way out of having to make
Speaker 1: a decision. They feel like this isn't even legal all
Speaker 1: right now. A man in Louisiana ended up visiting the er.
Speaker 1: He felt like he should disprove the claims about guerrilla glue,
Speaker 1: and he went ahead and put it on his lip.
Speaker 1: Is Len Martin recording himself unpaceful. I'm gonna gorilla glue
Speaker 1: right here. I'm gonna take it, thrill his cup, put
Speaker 1: in my mouth and don't be licked and get at all.
Speaker 1: It's easy. That's good for his ass. That's right. He
Speaker 1: earned it. And if you didn't want to talk to
Speaker 1: your woman on Valentine's Day, just say that, bro, you
Speaker 1: ain't had to put gorilla glue on your goddamn lips.
Speaker 1: People so stupid because we're living in a stupid society.
Speaker 1: I don't know when we're gonna understand that. He ended
Speaker 1: up in the ear. He had to undergo what he
Speaker 1: described a painful peeling at the hands of doctors. He
Speaker 1: was informed that if his wound doesn't help properly, he'll
Speaker 1: need to have a surgical procedure with the tip of
Speaker 1: his lip will be removed. To drop on a clues
Speaker 1: bombs for stupid. Ye, that's like saying well, I can't
Speaker 1: sleeps let me crazy glue my eyelids together so I
Speaker 1: can sleep a little longer. Man, Why are your lips?
Speaker 1: Why not? Why not do something that you know you
Speaker 1: don't have to use every day? Why I knew your
Speaker 1: big toe together until you're told next to it? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Look like you got a little
Speaker 1: webtoes or something that would have been easy. Why are you?
Speaker 1: Why are your lips? Of all things? And why did
Speaker 1: he feel it need to get online and trying to
Speaker 1: prove that girl wrong? That's y'all problem. Y'all. See people
Speaker 1: do things, y'all hearing people say things, and y'all just

Speaker 1: this hey? Good morning Heavy, Good morning, Charlotte Man, Good
Speaker 1: morning Angela, Happy Friday. What's happening on? Hey? So, I
Speaker 1: want to talk about that jay Z verse. I know
Speaker 1: Charlomagne was talking about whether or not we judge day
Speaker 1: Z on the curb. I think back in the day
Speaker 1: we used to talk about hip hop being like a
Speaker 1: young man's sport, it's not no more man's hip hop.
Speaker 1: You American up hip hop is is is all American
Speaker 1: right now, and it's a popular culture. Though I don't
Speaker 1: think we should be looking at it as a young
Speaker 1: man's sport anymore, because back in the day when it
Speaker 1: was a young culture, we could say that. But it's
Speaker 1: become American culture, right, so we can't. We gotta look
Speaker 1: at JAYZ in the same category like the Who and
Speaker 1: the Rolling Stones and all that. He's a legend and
Speaker 1: we can't compare him to the young boys, but we
Speaker 1: can't just say it's the young boys sport anymore. It's
Speaker 1: evolved into anybody could do it at any time, as
Speaker 1: long as you do it from the heart. Agree, you know,
Speaker 1: jay Z legend number one, MC got MC of all
Speaker 1: time and that verse. I don't know when jd Rapp,
Speaker 1: I feel like you's sucking to me all the time.
Speaker 1: It's a scripture. It's a scripture. He puts my he
Speaker 1: puts my thoughts in perspective, like when he said, you
Speaker 1: let them cracking storm your capital, put their feet up
Speaker 1: on your desk, and yet you're talking tough to me.
Speaker 1: I lost all my little respect. That's how I'd be
Speaker 1: feeling when I'd be like, man, I feel like democrats
Speaker 1: are cowards. Republicans and cowards, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's like, but they want to talk tough to us,
Speaker 1: but you let them for run up in your capital.
Speaker 1: When to put their feet up, ball in your desk? Yep?
Speaker 1: Come on, man, Hello, who's this yo? Everybody was going
Speaker 1: on man, mellow, mellow? What up? Man getting off her chest? Mellow?
Speaker 1: All right? First things first, all the beautiful ladies out there.
Speaker 1: I don't care. He's got a Valentine and not happy
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day, you know what I mean. That's first things first.
Speaker 1: And second of all, I need everybody stopped hunting my
Speaker 1: god with Charlotte because he really looked like Morris Chestnuts
Speaker 1: for rever listen, brother getting into heaven, I said, Morris Chestnut. Nah,
Speaker 1: I mean if he looked I mean, he looked like
Speaker 1: Morris Chestnut if he was too expensive on Amazon. So
Speaker 1: you trying to go to Wish and you that's that's
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get, yo. Yo, My heaven revoked. See
Speaker 1: you got into heaven and then you got your call.
Speaker 1: You got revoked, yo. But no, I got a proposition
Speaker 1: for you. Because I thought I looked like Trey Storm.
Speaker 1: Somebody said I looked like Trey Romes. So I'm thinking,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? You look like Morris Left.
Speaker 1: I looked like Trey Romes. We can start a singing
Speaker 1: group called boys to nick Man, we can really take boys.
Speaker 1: Boys didn't listen. I'm gonna be honest with you. I
Speaker 1: didn't say I looked like Marks chesting up the screech.
Speaker 1: Didn't know you did. Hello, this is the undisputed w
Speaker 1: m DC. Good morning, enjoy Harry got snack Man. Now,
Speaker 1: people who don't know if you just joined the snack
Speaker 1: Man as a comedian's first comedian a god man, tell
Speaker 1: you joke now that the CDC has suggested that we
Speaker 1: wear two masks. Yo, I'm not mad. Ever since I've
Speaker 1: been of age, I have always double bagged it. Yo.
Speaker 1: King you got a social distance from comedy, bro like
Speaker 1: you gotta like like you should just you should just
Speaker 1: social distance. I mean as far away from comedy as possible,
Speaker 1: not even six feet like twelve eighteen maybe twenty four.
Speaker 1: That was one of his better ones. It wasn't trash.
Speaker 1: It made sense, elease, I didn't make sense. There was
Speaker 1: like a beginning middle of that. Normally he just kind
Speaker 1: of leaves us side clu. It always leaves us like
Speaker 1: I don't want to hit the punchline. I just want
Speaker 1: him to get punched. Get it off your chest? Eight
Speaker 1: hundred five, eight five, one oh five, what we got
Speaker 1: rumors on the way. Yes, And since we're doing comedy,
Speaker 1: let's talk about Dave Chappelle. He puts something out overnight
Speaker 1: and this Redemption song. Yes he did, and he started
Speaker 1: off talking about the cowards who had something to say
Speaker 1: about his him getting coronavirus. All right, we'll get into
Speaker 1: that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Go more. Listen, just
Speaker 1: stand Oh gosh, got report got Breakfast Club? All right, Well,
Speaker 1: Young Blue had some issues with Tory Lane's remixing his
Speaker 1: song Your Mind still featuring Drake. Listen to this, I
Speaker 1: always day weekend change listen, don't facing she got my
Speaker 1: heartbeat risten that same time, don't go me because you
Speaker 1: mist and I don't want to let you man me.
Speaker 1: Pretty face, pretty tiding. We heard a song on the
Speaker 1: pretty taught me all the lessons. He played a lot
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, So Young Blue did not appreciate Tory
Speaker 1: Lane's and not reaching out to him, tagging him or
Speaker 1: nothing like that. Here's what he said. I hope he
Speaker 1: ain't take you long to record that song. I hope
Speaker 1: he ain't spend a lot of money twil hours of
Speaker 1: studio recording that song, because soon you upload YouTube, come
Speaker 1: straight down. So go get your money back, Go get
Speaker 1: a refund, go get a receipt. Well, you didn't tag me,
Speaker 1: you didn't show the lord man. Don't get it by life. Hey,
Speaker 1: I agree with Young Blue because you should cite your source,
Speaker 1: especially with a young artist. Yeah, with a young artists, absolutely,
Speaker 1: because it's I'm gonna tell you why. It's folks out
Speaker 1: there who who don't know who Young Blue is, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? But they know Tory Lane. They
Speaker 1: might hear that song and be like, oh, that's Tory
Speaker 1: Lane's record. It's like, no, it's Young Blue record. Give
Speaker 1: the young man some credit. If he was an older,
Speaker 1: more established artist that people know, I would understand the
Speaker 1: jacket for beat. But just to take a young artist
Speaker 1: song and not at least say what up Young Blue
Speaker 1: or something? Nah, he's a top ten artist and artist's
Speaker 1: been doing it since hip hop was created. Somebody puts
Speaker 1: out a record and somebody does a freestyle over it.
Speaker 1: You do it all the time. I've heard just Tory
Speaker 1: every artist. I've heard that record, but I don't know
Speaker 1: Young Blue. I had a record on the radio, but
Speaker 1: I don't know who that is. What does that mean?
Speaker 1: Jay Z has done a whole mixtape taking people's beats. Yes,
Speaker 1: Gods has done it. You know change all right? Well,
Speaker 1: well Young Blie and his team had had that song
Speaker 1: taken down and he can do that. And then he
Speaker 1: tweeted tag me and I put it back. I'm a
Speaker 1: real and word at Tory Lanes and Tory Lanez had
Speaker 1: at Young Blue. Crazy thing is. I love your music
Speaker 1: and your song. That's why I remixed it. You're an
Speaker 1: incredible artist and I've been listening to you since. Unappreciated,
Speaker 1: but he felt some sort of way we can just
Speaker 1: talk like men over a phone and not social media.
Speaker 1: Love bro, So Drake has done it many times a
Speaker 1: lot of people. The easiest thing to do is give
Speaker 1: somebody some credit. I mean all all a young man
Speaker 1: wanted was an add on Twitter. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: At least cite your source and say tell me the
Speaker 1: original record is. Young Blue responded to that and said
Speaker 1: I can't call you if I don't have your number.
Speaker 1: G I don't want to beef. I like the record. Actually,
Speaker 1: I just felt disrespected. You just saw me at Rolling
Speaker 1: Loud tonight and ain't say a word to me. And
Speaker 1: I even performed the song you said you like when
Speaker 1: I took a pick with your artist. I go get
Speaker 1: in my sprinter and see you remix my song and
Speaker 1: ain't show love either. So I'm a real person. I
Speaker 1: get offended. Send your jack let's talk like men. It's
Speaker 1: on you. I'm leaving it alone though, but let's not
Speaker 1: play victim gang. I don't never be on no cloud ish. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I agree artists been jacking for years. But I do
Speaker 1: agree with him. He's a young artist. He's on to
Speaker 1: come up. People don't know him yet. Just to get
Speaker 1: him in some credit, get him a shout out. Ot
Speaker 1: Genesis did it. Mary J. Blige just done it, Like
Speaker 1: that's what the hip hop is about. Just I think
Speaker 1: it yourself out like I just saw you tonight and
Speaker 1: you ain't saying nothing rollout Loud. What's happening, I guess.
Speaker 1: So I don't think it's nothing wrong giving a young
Speaker 1: boy credit, all right, now, let's talk about Dave Chappelle.
Speaker 1: Overnight he put out a Redemption song and it's a
Speaker 1: new ten minute clip. You know, he has this deal
Speaker 1: with Netflix and he's been putting out all kinds of content,
Speaker 1: and he's been performing in Austin, Texas. I think they
Speaker 1: just closed out all their shows in Austin. Dave Chappelle
Speaker 1: did end up getting coronavirus. You know, he's been doing
Speaker 1: these shows in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and then he moved
Speaker 1: it over to Austin with Joe Rogan, and he started
Speaker 1: it off talking about getting coronavirus. And I just tried
Speaker 1: to find a way that I could work. You see
Speaker 1: what we've been doing, all of you who had didn't
Speaker 1: endure this invasive test on were these masks just so
Speaker 1: we could be out and hang out and be together.
Speaker 1: I tried and if all these months, after doing all
Speaker 1: all these shows, God David, my number was up, and
Speaker 1: then I had the rona all when I said I
Speaker 1: had the coronavirus, the overwhelming majority of people wished me, well,
Speaker 1: we hope you get better, take care of yourself. We
Speaker 1: don't want anything bead to happen to you. But there
Speaker 1: was a faction of people who said, you see that day, Chappelle,
Speaker 1: that's why we stay inside where its safe. Well, enjoy yourselves, mother,
Speaker 1: because I'm better now, all right, And then he goes
Speaker 1: on to talk about actually like quarantine shaming a little bit,
Speaker 1: But well, I think like quarantine shaming just a little bit,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Just because people want to
Speaker 1: follow see see gudelines and stay in the house, that's fine, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think I think he
Speaker 1: was talking about people that were like, ha ha, you
Speaker 1: see you see. But he's saying that he's from months
Speaker 1: done this. He's you know, gotten people tested to even
Speaker 1: attend his shows. They socially distanced at the shows. Anybody
Speaker 1: that participates and activities with him has to get tested
Speaker 1: before they come, get tested twice a day. And he
Speaker 1: dared what he could. Yeah, but he's proved that even
Speaker 1: if you take profitable cautions, you can still get it.
Speaker 1: But even so, that don't mean that, you know, even
Speaker 1: if you still want to stay in the house, that's
Speaker 1: still fine, right, But yes, he had an issue with
Speaker 1: people who didn't just say hey, we wish you well.
Speaker 1: There were people that were like, good for you, ha ha,
Speaker 1: and well that's how we felt. And so anyway, he
Speaker 1: goes on to talk about his show, The Chappelle Show
Speaker 1: coming back to Netflix. Here's what he said. I never
Speaker 1: asked Comedy Central for anything. If you remember, I said,
Speaker 1: I'm going to my real boss, and I came to you.
Speaker 1: I asked you to stop watching the show, and thank
Speaker 1: God Almighty for you you did. You made that show
Speaker 1: worthless because without your eyes, it's nothing. And when you
Speaker 1: stopped watching it, they called me and I got my
Speaker 1: name back, and I got my license back, and I
Speaker 1: got my show back and they paid me millions of dollars.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. I mean, there was no doubt
Speaker 1: that he wouldn't get a show back. I mean, he's Dave,
Speaker 1: mother f and Chappelle. And I'm also very happy that
Speaker 1: he saluted Chris McCarthy to drop on a clues bons
Speaker 1: for Chris McCarthy. If you watch the you know the
Speaker 1: whole thing he shouted like Chris McCarthy. Chris McCarthy as
Speaker 1: a guy who gave me my first ever overall deal
Speaker 1: in TV. And he's an executive who gets it. Not
Speaker 1: only does he have a great out for talent, more importantly,
Speaker 1: he always wants to do what's right by people. I
Speaker 1: love that guy. We need more executives like him, and
Speaker 1: he's got seven women on his senior management team. Pluton,
Speaker 1: I think he and if you watch a Chappelle was
Speaker 1: also saying that people were telling him he was never
Speaker 1: gonna get his show back and there was nothing they
Speaker 1: could do about it. For those people who don't know
Speaker 1: the business then, and they don't know the leverye Dave
Speaker 1: Chapelle has and they don't know the powers that be
Speaker 1: that are in position now at CBS Viacom, because if
Speaker 1: they actually knew Chris McCarthy, they would know, yes, they
Speaker 1: would get his show back, and Dave got the power
Speaker 1: at this point, he's in the power position position. Right.
Speaker 1: He tell people not to watch it, and like he said, financially,
Speaker 1: it didn't make sense for them. If nobody's gonna watch
Speaker 1: the show, doesn't make sense to put it on. And
Speaker 1: more correctly, I'm telling you Chris McCarthy will always do
Speaker 1: what's right. If you know Chris McCarthy didn't, then you
Speaker 1: know that that's what that's the type of stuff he
Speaker 1: fights for. All right, Well that is your rumor report,
Speaker 1: all right. Now, when we come back, we got front
Speaker 1: page news. What we're talking about, Well, let's talk about
Speaker 1: Casey Goodson's junior. Now we've had his mom and his
Speaker 1: attorney and his mom's attorney. I'm previously he was shot
Speaker 1: and killed by police and then back as he was
Speaker 1: entering his own home. They are gonna give us an update.
Speaker 1: And I want you guys to really pay attention to
Speaker 1: this because it's heartbreaking to hear. And the police officer
Speaker 1: who's shot and killed him is still working, still has
Speaker 1: his job, all right, So we'll talk to him next.
Speaker 1: And then every hour on an hour, we're playing this
Speaker 1: Nipsey jay Z joint. What it feels like to get
Speaker 1: your ass up. It's the Breakfast Local Morner and this
Speaker 1: is what it feels like, all right. That was what
Speaker 1: it feels like. Nipsey Hustle and jay Z off the
Speaker 1: Jewish and the Black Messiah soundtrack. Tell me that's not
Speaker 1: a hard ball. When jay Z says you're letting cracking
Speaker 1: storm your capital, put their feet up on your desk,
Speaker 1: and yet you talking tough to me, I lost all
Speaker 1: my little respect. That's how I feel about in Cowards, Yes,
Speaker 1: And you know, jay Z never gets bad like like
Speaker 1: you know, people say, yoh, when orders get old. No, no,
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying, not at all. It's like
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, right like you you know Tom Brady is great,
Speaker 1: but you appreciate him more because he's forty three. Correct.
Speaker 1: You don't expect him to still be doing what he's
Speaker 1: doing at forty three, just like you don't expect Hold
Speaker 1: to still be doing what he's doing at fifty one.
Speaker 1: That's only because the rappers we saw before him that
Speaker 1: age were so whack. You know, they got bad, they
Speaker 1: got terrible without bad, Yes, they got bad for whatever
Speaker 1: reason he has it and not just spoiled. Look at
Speaker 1: he's he's not the oldest. Think about scarf face. Scarf
Speaker 1: face is still phenomenal. Scar Face still get business. No,
Speaker 1: plenty of rappers over forty still phenomenal. Nas rights to
Speaker 1: five nine, but you know, jee a lot of rappers
Speaker 1: before they still get busy. Yeah, all right, anyway, well
Speaker 1: let's get in some front page news. We're doing a
Speaker 1: different this morning. Yeah, and I feel like this is
Speaker 1: an important story that we do really need to highlight
Speaker 1: because I haven't seen much activity around the killing of
Speaker 1: Casey Goodson Junior. So we are going to have his mother,
Speaker 1: Tamla Paine, and his attorney, Shaan Walton give us some
Speaker 1: updates on what's happening. The officer who shot and killed
Speaker 1: Casey Goodson, who was only twenty three years old, still
Speaker 1: has his job, and they're going to talk about what
Speaker 1: they know about the killing of Casey Goodson Junior and
Speaker 1: where they are right now with the investigation. Yeah, quick update.
Speaker 1: He was coming home from the dentist, walking in into
Speaker 1: his house and the officers shot him five times. He
Speaker 1: had illegal gun on him, legally owned gun on him,
Speaker 1: and now let's talk to the mom and attorney. Good morning.
Speaker 1: Thank you again for having us. You know, we respect
Speaker 1: and appreciate this platform so much. And Tamerla insisted that
Speaker 1: she wanted to talk to her friends as we released
Speaker 1: more information. So you know, we appreciate you guys uplifting
Speaker 1: Casey Gudson's name that we know now more than ever
Speaker 1: that Casey Gudson, Jr. Was an innocent black man who
Speaker 1: was murdered by Franklin County Sheriff's Deputy Jason me on
Speaker 1: December four of twenty twenty. And we didn't know before.
Speaker 1: We thought that he was shot in in the back
Speaker 1: a few times. Casey's grandmother and saw three gunshots. But
Speaker 1: we've spoken with the county corner that performed the autopsy
Speaker 1: in case he was shot in his back six times,
Speaker 1: five times in his back and once in his butt
Speaker 1: with a high powered rifle. And he was shot through
Speaker 1: his screen door as he walked into his own home.
Speaker 1: He was shot from behind. His keys were in the door,
Speaker 1: he had subway in his hand, and so it was
Speaker 1: a cold blooded execution and Casey was murdered and the
Speaker 1: world needs to know that. Yeah, and I see now
Speaker 1: that there could potentially be some federal charges. Is that true? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So the Department of Justice and the FBI have been
Speaker 1: leading this investigation because the ball was dropped early on
Speaker 1: by the local police, and so the fairs have been investigating,
Speaker 1: and they may bring federal charges, they may bring state charges,
Speaker 1: but they had been in consistent communication with us, and
Speaker 1: so we understand that they're pursuing the truth, and the
Speaker 1: truth is going to lead to the understanding that Casey
Speaker 1: was murdered. So, yeah, they are spaghetti and they could
Speaker 1: bring subtle charges. How are you doing, How are you
Speaker 1: holding up? How is everything with you? I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: doing as well as I can really. As I stated before,
Speaker 1: I don't really really allow myself to feel right now,
Speaker 1: I feel like if I allow myself to feel, and
Speaker 1: I can't fight. And my whole everyday purposes to fight
Speaker 1: for justice, because, as Sean said, Kathy wasn't murdered, he
Speaker 1: was executed. I've seen the picture of my son's back.
Speaker 1: He blew a chunk out of my son's back. He
Speaker 1: had sermons where he talks about hunting people and uses
Speaker 1: his platform as a pastor to describe police brutality, so
Speaker 1: to speak. And he's bragged about how he hunts people
Speaker 1: and he throws the first punch. And unfortunately, on that day,
Speaker 1: he definitely hunted my son and he killed him in
Speaker 1: cold blood, you know, and I want justice. I mean,
Speaker 1: my son was a twenty three year old man. He's
Speaker 1: never been in troubling the law. He was a family man,
Speaker 1: he didn't club, he's never I mean, he was a
Speaker 1: good kid. He didn't deserve this. He was coming home
Speaker 1: from the dentist. You know. When the case first started,
Speaker 1: we thought he was only shot three times in the
Speaker 1: back because there were three boot holes in the screen door.
Speaker 1: So the assumption was there were three shots to his back,
Speaker 1: but there's five shots. There's five shots to the back
Speaker 1: and one to his button. I've seen every shot. I
Speaker 1: did sit down with the corner and a pathologist that
Speaker 1: performed the autop DNA twain every bullet one to me
Speaker 1: in great deep Still he hit basically every organ my
Speaker 1: son has. It's just, I mean, it's no way to
Speaker 1: explain how I feel other than in fact I want
Speaker 1: him in jail. The man still has a job. He's
Speaker 1: still employed. To this day is day sixty eight, and
Speaker 1: he still has a job. He shouldn't have been on
Speaker 1: the assignment he was on in the first place because
Speaker 1: of his extensive rutger as a shirt deputy. He was
Speaker 1: involved in an altercation in two thousand and eighteen that
Speaker 1: left two men dead. He was involved in another shooting.
Speaker 1: He was on a no contact order with inmates where
Speaker 1: he worked. Where where your job is to work with
Speaker 1: the MMA, he couldn't even have contact with him, So
Speaker 1: he shouldn't have been on the apogement that he was
Speaker 1: on the day that he was on it that led
Speaker 1: to my son's murder in the first place, and then
Speaker 1: he still has a job after sixty eight days. You know,
Speaker 1: he still has a job. He hasn't been arrested. You know,
Speaker 1: he doesn't deserve a job. And that's the officer, Jason Meade,
Speaker 1: who you're speaking on. I want to flash back to
Speaker 1: what you said. So I saw there was a video
Speaker 1: or something that he was posting where he was talking
Speaker 1: about using religion to justify brutality. Is that what you
Speaker 1: were referencing earlier. Yes, he made a signment. I actually
Speaker 1: listened to it for the first time the other day.
Speaker 1: I've heard about altbred some of the things that he said,
Speaker 1: but the first time I actually listened to the video
Speaker 1: was Saturday. To be honest with you, and yes, in
Speaker 1: the video, he definitely says he hunts people. He stated
Speaker 1: that the people that I hit you wish you could
Speaker 1: hit too, and this congregation laugh. He bragged about his
Speaker 1: colleague and his supervisors being a part of the congregation.
Speaker 1: They were all asking and charing and clapping him all.
Speaker 1: He also said he throws the first punch. He doesn't
Speaker 1: wait for the first puns to be thrown. He thrown
Speaker 1: was the first punch. So yeah, he used it to
Speaker 1: brag about police brutality and basically killing innocent black man.
Speaker 1: It's clear, no, no. As far as this case, what's
Speaker 1: the what's next now? One is the immediate termination of
Speaker 1: Jason meet you know, calling for that and also his
Speaker 1: arrest and pushing for that, keeping that pressure on. You know,
Speaker 1: there's no video, but what we know is that the
Speaker 1: physical evidence shows that he was hunted and he was killed,
Speaker 1: and there's no justification for so calling for meats termination,
Speaker 1: holding his sheriff's office accountable, as well as holding the
Speaker 1: Department of Justice accountable for prosecuting him. Also, we're going
Speaker 1: to have a website, um Justice for Casey Goodson junior
Speaker 1: dot com. It's going to aggregate all this information and
Speaker 1: keep and keep folks updated on calls to action and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, making sure that this and die down. As
Speaker 1: we know with George Floyd and Eric Garner and others,
Speaker 1: seeing video is something that has lifted those names up.
Speaker 1: But in cases like Brianna Taylor, it's to push from
Speaker 1: the people across the country that gets justice and those
Speaker 1: officers still weren't in diets. We want to make sure
Speaker 1: that we have justice here, we have a conviction, and
Speaker 1: that we normalize the conversation around black people and guns.
Speaker 1: That's really important. It's perfectly normal for people like Katy
Speaker 1: to be lawful gun owners and even myself and anybody
Speaker 1: anybody else in this country, and that can't be a
Speaker 1: death sentence or Tama Lapaine, attorney Shaan L. Walton, thank
Speaker 1: you for checking in and just give us any updates
Speaker 1: anytime something pops up. Please yeah, always welcome. We definitely
Speaker 1: want to make sure we keep everybody in form. Thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you all all right, well, thank you
Speaker 1: Tama La Paine, Thank you to Sean Walton. It brings
Speaker 1: tears in my eyes every time I have to think
Speaker 1: about a mother not being able to see her son anymore.
Speaker 1: He did nothing wrong. He was going into his home correct,
Speaker 1: holding a bag of subway sandwiches. And if you follow
Speaker 1: her on Instagram, is painful just to see all the
Speaker 1: things that she's posting. You know, she has other children
Speaker 1: as well, and like she said, she didn't want to
Speaker 1: put out the picture of him because she doesn't want
Speaker 1: her kids to have to see that. But it's things
Speaker 1: like that I think that finally will motivate people to
Speaker 1: have the empathy they need to have for this woman.
Speaker 1: Absolutely all right, we lat is your front page news now.
Speaker 1: When we come back Daniel Kaluya will be joining us.
Speaker 1: You know him from get Out, you know from Black Panther,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna be kicking it with him, all right,
Speaker 1: so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning 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 on the line right now, Daniel Kaluya. Welcome,
Speaker 1: brother Yo, thanks for having mem Nice to see you guys.
Speaker 1: Have you ever I don't think you've ever been here
Speaker 1: in person? Have you? Have you? Daniel? Good to meet
Speaker 1: you over zoom man. But to me, Tima have enjoyed
Speaker 1: you in several projects. You've been attached to some really
Speaker 1: great movies. I mean, of course Get Out, Black Panther
Speaker 1: and now Judith in The Black Messiah, which I you know,
Speaker 1: I don't want to put too much sauce on it.
Speaker 1: I just think it's a phenomenal film first and foremost
Speaker 1: so so what made you want to do this film? What? What? What?
Speaker 1: What feature interest on this film? It was Ryan and
Speaker 1: Zinzi Kogler on a set of Black Panther on the
Speaker 1: reshoots pulled me to the side and they were just like,
Speaker 1: I were making a film about Chairman Fred. I was
Speaker 1: speaking about that, and then I was like, and then
Speaker 1: they were speaking that Lakeith was a part of it,
Speaker 1: mckith Stanfield and Shaky King was directing, and they told
Speaker 1: they told me about their intentions and their reasons for
Speaker 1: doing it. I just it just really spoke to me,
Speaker 1: re resonating with me. And then a lot of things
Speaker 1: happened because I was in the middle of to get
Speaker 1: out press room at that time. So I sat down
Speaker 1: with Shaka in New York and I read the script
Speaker 1: literally the first script I read after the Oscars. First
Speaker 1: script I read was Judis in Black Missile, and I
Speaker 1: just said, yeah, I'm in What did they say were
Speaker 1: the intentions behind doing it about UNI? It's about bringing
Speaker 1: people together, talking about how Chairman Fred was this beacon
Speaker 1: and he just broke people together and that's what we
Speaker 1: want people to do out there, you know. And I
Speaker 1: just read that really spoke to me. Did you know
Speaker 1: much about the character beforehand or did you have to
Speaker 1: study or Chairman Fred? I knew. I knew bits and pieces,
Speaker 1: you know here and now hearing conversations and stuff. I
Speaker 1: remember one I was played somewhere and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: saw the date that he was born in a date
Speaker 1: he was assassinated. And I was like, well, wait, hold on,
Speaker 1: that can't be right. I was like, what that can't
Speaker 1: be right? How old was held? What's going on? And
Speaker 1: then and I was googling, and I was like, he
Speaker 1: can't have been twenty one. Not only that he was
Speaker 1: assassinating the twenty one, but he made it to be
Speaker 1: chairman of the Internet chapter of the Black Pipe of
Speaker 1: Party by twenty one. I was just like, that's that's incredible,
Speaker 1: you know, And I just on that day, I remember
Speaker 1: I went on it. I was like, yo, I need
Speaker 1: to do a real read on all that stuff when
Speaker 1: I got time. And then luckily I was blessed to
Speaker 1: have this opportunity. Yeah, he was assassinated on December four,
Speaker 1: of jay Z's born day. You know, I'm listening to
Speaker 1: you talk man, and I will always be intrigued by
Speaker 1: British actors who can make their accents go away for
Speaker 1: certain roles. I'm from South Carolina and I can't get
Speaker 1: rid of this accent to save my life. Ever, how
Speaker 1: how is it, how are y'all able to do that?
Speaker 1: That's what Bro. It's like, it's like it's like you're
Speaker 1: gonna You're gonna get I mean, it's like if you're
Speaker 1: like being a vessel for Chairman Fred, you're just going.
Speaker 1: You can't even approach it with your accident, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, with your experience, you have to kind
Speaker 1: of surrender, let yourself go. You're understanding, and then it's
Speaker 1: kind of just come to it, you undersaying, and when
Speaker 1: you come to it, you have to adopt these not
Speaker 1: only speech ribbons, but foot rhythms. You're saying. It's like
Speaker 1: you have to think in a way in that space,
Speaker 1: think in that space, and then your speech changes. You
Speaker 1: can't think like a brother from London, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You can't think like you're looking at it.
Speaker 1: So it's kind of like a it's a scenario surrendering,
Speaker 1: you know. You know the story of the Black Panthers
Speaker 1: has been so misconstrued, like people try to compare the
Speaker 1: Black Panthers to the KKK. Knowing this, did you feel
Speaker 1: extra pressure to make sure that they were portrayed correctly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know that that comparison is just laced and based
Speaker 1: in white fear and white anxiet, you know, because it
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't make no sense to compare the Black
Speaker 1: Panther Party, an organization that was providing free healthcare and
Speaker 1: breakfast program kids and educating kids, to another group that
Speaker 1: lynches black people. And I'm saying, it's like, that's not
Speaker 1: even you know, it's so it's h Like I said,
Speaker 1: we're just navigating white fear and white anxiety and we're
Speaker 1: kind of pushing it to the side and saying, Yo,
Speaker 1: this is from our perspective, this is the truth. You know,
Speaker 1: this is actually what they did, This is what they
Speaker 1: had to go through, and then that they still loved themselves,
Speaker 1: and then that they still loved the Black commu community
Speaker 1: and poured love into the black community. Did they teach
Speaker 1: you a lot about the Black Panthers in the UK?
Speaker 1: Because even growing up in New York, they really didn't
Speaker 1: teach us much about the Black Panthers, Like, you know,
Speaker 1: they they would teach us about Martinlauke, the King, drips
Speaker 1: and drabs of Malcolm X, very little about the Panthers.
Speaker 1: So did you learn much about the Panthers growing up
Speaker 1: in the UK? You know, it is at school we
Speaker 1: did the civil rights movement at school, and it was
Speaker 1: it was a lot of Montgomery bus Boycott, lot on
Speaker 1: Rosa Parts, a lot on Martin Luther King, and then
Speaker 1: mentioned of Malcolm X and then skipp to JFK and
Speaker 1: you know, and then it's just like John saying, it's
Speaker 1: kinda like and then I remember, I just see the
Speaker 1: other day, like a couple of weeks ago, I was
Speaker 1: looking at my old school papers, and I saw that
Speaker 1: there was like this printed like kind of typed up
Speaker 1: or kind of sections, and I had written the Black
Speaker 1: Panther Party in the middle of something, in the middle
Speaker 1: of it. In my writing, I'm probably like a thirteen fourteen,
Speaker 1: so it was in passing, you know. But then when
Speaker 1: you're when you're a young black man navigating the Western construct,
Speaker 1: you're gonna attract those kind of ideas. If you love yourself,
Speaker 1: if if you wanted to empower yourself, the Black Panther
Speaker 1: Party is going to arrive to you. And so it
Speaker 1: came to me in natural ways and conversations or in
Speaker 1: watching things or taking an art and like you're just
Speaker 1: taking a lot of stuff. That's how it kind of
Speaker 1: came to me. And I educated myself on it by myself,
Speaker 1: like I read a Starter's book like that was just
Speaker 1: me doing stuff in my spare time, you know, because
Speaker 1: it was stuff that I would that cared about. How
Speaker 1: do you think a movie like Judea's in the Blackness
Speaker 1: Diet is relevant as far as what's going on in
Speaker 1: the world today, Like could you see Fred Hampton existing?
Speaker 1: Do you know anybody that's like that to try to
Speaker 1: bring together all different groups of people to fight against
Speaker 1: police brutality. There is the probably is Chairman Fred out there,
Speaker 1: you know, And that's what it is about Judas and
Speaker 1: Black Side. We're trying to show that this man is
Speaker 1: a human being. You know that you have the capacity.
Speaker 1: Anyone out there has the capacity to go out there
Speaker 1: and support their community, you know, and and empower their
Speaker 1: own to free themselves. You know. But in terms of
Speaker 1: like how it's like today, I feel Chairman Fred and
Speaker 1: Black Panther Party and through this film just articulating how
Speaker 1: a lot of people are feeling right now. You see
Speaker 1: it we largely with the murders of George Floyd and
Speaker 1: Brianna Taylor, And the response to that is that, like
Speaker 1: this film articulates how people are feeling and what to
Speaker 1: do about it, you know, because I have one of
Speaker 1: my favorite sayings is do something, start small, start local,
Speaker 1: keep going. You know what I'm saying. And I feel
Speaker 1: it's that it's like decentralized empowerment. You know, that's how
Speaker 1: phil It's about, Yo, Let's take the power for ourselves
Speaker 1: and empower people around us. I mean, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of brothers and sisters out here doing the work right now,
Speaker 1: and we may have a Fred Hampton type figure in
Speaker 1: our miss now, but we just don't appreciate them, like
Speaker 1: the Tamica Mallory's, the Philip bag News. They bring people together,
Speaker 1: they fight against police brutality. But you know his history
Speaker 1: always tells a different story after people are gone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's one I'm saying to say, Charloman, why don't we
Speaker 1: empower and put those people up in the platform now
Speaker 1: because they're out there. It's like they're just doing the work.
Speaker 1: They're on the front line. Sometimes like real change is quiet,
Speaker 1: and it's it's like like, yo, let's let's put our
Speaker 1: attention towards them. Let's empower them. Let's put all resources
Speaker 1: towards those people. They are in Carolina, are in like
Speaker 1: New York, the are in in Oakland that aren't doing
Speaker 1: the work. You know, all we have more with Daniel
Speaker 1: Caluya when we come back, don't move. It's to breakfast club,
Speaker 1: Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the breakfast club. We're still kicking
Speaker 1: it with Daniel Caluya. So let me ask you a question.
Speaker 1: What's the racial climate in the UK? I mean it's
Speaker 1: a similar, similar dynamic. I mean, and people need to
Speaker 1: be I think people need to be clear that the
Speaker 1: root of all ideas is usually in the language that
Speaker 1: people speak. So the fact that like we are all
Speaker 1: on this cool speaking English, because the construct that we
Speaker 1: are all navigating as like in terms of like racism
Speaker 1: in this towards black people is rooted in England. You know,
Speaker 1: they came over and they did what they did. So
Speaker 1: in England it's a climate is different because it's their land.
Speaker 1: There's there is a conflict. There is there is a conflict,
Speaker 1: but it is subtle. You know, there isn't there isn't
Speaker 1: an insecurity that they stole it, but there is there
Speaker 1: is police brutality. I mean you can see it in
Speaker 1: Mark Duggan. You know, that's kicked off the twenty eleven
Speaker 1: London riots and his murder. There's so many black figures
Speaker 1: and black people who have been killed by They've just
Speaker 1: been they've just been murdered by the police, and they've
Speaker 1: been risings and you know the Brixton riots in the eighties,
Speaker 1: there's been so there's the battle is still going on
Speaker 1: within England as well. What do you say the critics
Speaker 1: who say roles like Fred Hampton should go to Black
Speaker 1: Americans only. I listened to them. I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: say anything to them because i feel like I'm in
Speaker 1: a position where I'm about union in the in the diasporal,
Speaker 1: you know. But if someone's feeling like what, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: listen saying I'm gonna find how can we come together?
Speaker 1: And if that's how they feel, it's been a history
Speaker 1: of people ignoring and dismissing what African American people with
Speaker 1: feeling and what they're expressing. I'm not gonna contribute to
Speaker 1: that culture. I'm not in the business. It's the reality.
Speaker 1: So if they're feeling the way, they're gonna listen, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say ya, I'm here to unite. And if they
Speaker 1: feel like yeah, I don't want to unite with you.
Speaker 1: That's been cool. You also got to reunite with the
Speaker 1: character William or Neill play with Diala Keith scan Field.
Speaker 1: Obviously you guys worked on Get Out Together. And I
Speaker 1: want to ask you what you think about what he
Speaker 1: had to do because he's the one that infiltrated the
Speaker 1: Black Panther Party and Judas and the Black Messiah, and
Speaker 1: I just think like, we'll give it too much away. Now,
Speaker 1: you give it a lot of way, but it's called
Speaker 1: Judas and the Black Syre, and the whole movie is
Speaker 1: about how this guy infiltrated the Black Panther Party, So
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a secreted a true story. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to ask you when you think
Speaker 1: about what he did right as that character, is there
Speaker 1: any redemption you can find for somebody like that, because
Speaker 1: the whole movie I just can't being like I can't
Speaker 1: stand him. Yeah, I mean the stuff I read that
Speaker 1: he did after that was just you know, he killed himself. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well not even that's how he carried on in the
Speaker 1: area and what he did to that community. But for me,
Speaker 1: it's just to be clear that he is, uh who
Speaker 1: you know, you know, it's like it's like he's a
Speaker 1: it's the FBI, you know, like it's the it's that
Speaker 1: he is being used I people, And I think what
Speaker 1: you what you see in this film is the danger
Speaker 1: of not caring, the danger of apathy, how like, and
Speaker 1: the danger of self preservation. And you think you're preserving
Speaker 1: yourself taking carry yourself, taking, carry yourself, taking, carry yourself.
Speaker 1: And it led to him destroy himself because and its
Speaker 1: whole community. He destroyed the whole movement. But the movement
Speaker 1: can't be destroyed, Andrew, it can't be destroyed. And Fred
Speaker 1: saying it can't be destroyed. That's why people out there
Speaker 1: last last year, right and not there's people out there
Speaker 1: out on the front line. We just it's just not
Speaker 1: the topic that we're talking about right now. But the
Speaker 1: movement cannot be destroyed. Ever, have you ever experienced the
Speaker 1: type of betrayal by one of your own that Fred
Speaker 1: Hampton experienced in regard to the William O'Neil. No, probably,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I would have to think about that.
Speaker 1: I don't know that he's getting into therapy land. I'm
Speaker 1: sure you needed some therapy after this role, because that's
Speaker 1: an intense role because you had to take on the
Speaker 1: trauma of a whole generation, the trauma of a whole movement.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you had to do some therapy to get
Speaker 1: that out. You. Yeah, I had to look at myself.
Speaker 1: I had to really look at myself, and I was
Speaker 1: blessed I have the pandemic. You know, I really just
Speaker 1: sit down. The first time I probably sat still since
Speaker 1: probably know it's like twenty fifteen. It was a lot
Speaker 1: to take and a can see that, like how I
Speaker 1: access characters, I abandoned myself and I don't advise anyone
Speaker 1: to do that. You know, I'm saying, it's um, there's
Speaker 1: a way that you can get what you want whilst
Speaker 1: taking care of yourself and loving yourself at the same time.
Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes you kind of go, well, this
Speaker 1: is all I have, especially when you come from not
Speaker 1: a lot, not a lot of money, not a lot
Speaker 1: of anything, that you're gonna use yourself as raw materials
Speaker 1: you're saying, But you don't realize you're burning yourself like
Speaker 1: a raw material, you know what I'm saying, instead of
Speaker 1: enriching yourself and pouring into yourself whilst giving yourself. You know,
Speaker 1: I had to look at that, and I'm still looking
Speaker 1: at that. I like that phrase. You you you abandoned yourself,
Speaker 1: like when during the role or after during during when
Speaker 1: I creatively, I like a kind of I just I
Speaker 1: do the habits of that person. So I'm waking up
Speaker 1: listening to Michael Mets and I'm like waking up listen
Speaker 1: to Martin Luther King's speeches. I am taking up smoking.
Speaker 1: I am I'm in the space. I'm doing the thing
Speaker 1: you're saying. I'm not me. I'm not living as me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing like I'm living as how I feel
Speaker 1: Chairman Fred was living in order to be in that
Speaker 1: spiritual space, and then I would associate that to abandon me.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm saying, and that's just not that's not cool.
Speaker 1: I'm saying, that's not that method acting? Is that what
Speaker 1: they can't? Method acting? I want to call that method acting.
Speaker 1: I don't know method acts when you're in character all
Speaker 1: the time, when I'm just hearing and I'm just like, Yo, Angela,
Speaker 1: you call me Fred, that's it, call me chairman, that's it.
Speaker 1: That's all I want to hear. Um. I don't really
Speaker 1: do that, but for me, it's just like I just
Speaker 1: want to It's like rituals, like triggers to consistently like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is you're in the space. You're in the space.
Speaker 1: You're in the space. But I didn't. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I took care of myself going into it, and
Speaker 1: I don't think I took care of myself going out.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna look at my process. You know, how
Speaker 1: do you get out of that? How do you get
Speaker 1: out of it to get back to some type of norbusy.
Speaker 1: It takes a well, my guy, it takes a well,
Speaker 1: a lot of boss, a lot of taking care of yourself,
Speaker 1: a lot of just like kind of catching yourself. What
Speaker 1: I used to do is like I used to go
Speaker 1: away for a week by myself, take my phone off,
Speaker 1: and thought that that would reset me. But you know
Speaker 1: what it is, I realized last year I'd carried everything
Speaker 1: since get out, every role I've taken, I'd carried and
Speaker 1: I hadn't said bye to it. I hadn't say bye
Speaker 1: to it. It was in my body, you know, And
Speaker 1: so I had to had to look at myself. When
Speaker 1: you say you take baths, you put some salt in
Speaker 1: that water man, nothing like a relaxing, salt bath, some
Speaker 1: epsence and you know I put somethen some of him
Speaker 1: and laying yeah, right with it. I get right with it,
Speaker 1: making start up man bro right all we got more
Speaker 1: with Daniel Caluya when we come back, don't move. It's
Speaker 1: to breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is dj Envy
Speaker 1: Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: You know him from get Out Black Panther and now
Speaker 1: Judas in the Black Messiah were still kicking with Daniel
Speaker 1: Kaloya yee. Did you talk to I'm Fred Hampton Junior
Speaker 1: about this role. Also, we met the family. So I
Speaker 1: went to Chicago before the shoot because I already wanted
Speaker 1: to meet the family and we couldn't do that, couldn't
Speaker 1: do it on that trip. And I went to Maywood
Speaker 1: and went to his chairman friends, old school or homes,
Speaker 1: everybody everywhere he went and where he used to speed cap,
Speaker 1: spoke to people in Chicago, understood what just understood how
Speaker 1: he how he felt to the people in Chicago. And
Speaker 1: then later on we went to a trip and we
Speaker 1: went to meet cham and Junior and Mama Korem Chamman,
Speaker 1: Fred's partner and yeah, it was like a seven eight
Speaker 1: hour meeting and it was real, saying it was real.
Speaker 1: You know, he had views and saying I mean and
Speaker 1: he kind of just looked to us and say, yo,
Speaker 1: why are you doing this? And then why'd you do this?
Speaker 1: You know, like I remember Mama Quid said, why did
Speaker 1: you make up? You know what? What does it up
Speaker 1: mean to you? You know, saying I found out stuff
Speaker 1: about myself in that situation. But I didn't really sit
Speaker 1: down with the families, go yo, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: even engage with people like that, saying I engaged with
Speaker 1: me on me this. I'm in a position I don't
Speaker 1: want to come here and respect and reverence, understanding and
Speaker 1: humility and I'm moved like that, saying I wouldn't want
Speaker 1: to go. I don't I don't move in a way
Speaker 1: that I want to take from black people from me.
Speaker 1: You know, it's so interesting just this short conversation we've had,
Speaker 1: I can tell that this role really impacted you in
Speaker 1: a real way. And what have you realized about yourself
Speaker 1: after playing the role of Fred Hampton. The power of love,
Speaker 1: the power of loving yourself unapologetically in the face of
Speaker 1: people that want you to like w I call it.
Speaker 1: It's like in the face of fear dressed as hate.
Speaker 1: It's the power of that I'm saying. And what the
Speaker 1: fact that we're sitting here nearly fifty two years later
Speaker 1: speaking back Chairman Fred is the power of self. Love
Speaker 1: is the power of love, and your own is the
Speaker 1: power of love, and your community. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: and that stuff. Who cares if you're celebrated in that way,
Speaker 1: you know, as long as you're doing it, and that
Speaker 1: will reverberate. I'm a firm believer. I don't try and
Speaker 1: change the world. I try and change my world, and
Speaker 1: then change my world. Then it reverberates to the world
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I kind of just see it like that.
Speaker 1: I think it really, Yeah, it really. I had to
Speaker 1: really look at myself. I had to really look at
Speaker 1: my ideas. You have to look at it. I'm going
Speaker 1: into this room reading this stuff like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: I can't look at I'm a product of his assassination
Speaker 1: in that sense, I mean, in that fear of speaking up,
Speaker 1: in that fear of telling the truth. At that time
Speaker 1: in the late sixties, he didn't have that fit. They
Speaker 1: didn't have that shame, They didn't come with that they
Speaker 1: come do you mean? It's like so it's like really
Speaker 1: looking at the fears that I had. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm buying what are they They're just they're
Speaker 1: just a way to empower them, empowered to with the
Speaker 1: concept of white supremacy. What it's white supremacy? What hate
Speaker 1: group is allowed to be called by their beliefs. That's
Speaker 1: white privilege within hate. What I'm saying, it's like they're
Speaker 1: white extremists. I don't call I don't believe white people
Speaker 1: are supremo from me. That I'm saying, I need too
Speaker 1: easy to look over that while I'm empowering them with
Speaker 1: a belief that oppresses me. How can empower people that
Speaker 1: don't like me? And I'm sense you feel me? I
Speaker 1: need to really look at that. When you look at
Speaker 1: the words I say, When you look at because my
Speaker 1: body's listening, you feel me when you say stuff your
Speaker 1: body listens to you. Did you find yourself looking at
Speaker 1: Lukkeith differently after the way he played this role, because
Speaker 1: he did it too well, he still got beef sharloming.
Speaker 1: Is that was it? Is that? What was happening. I
Speaker 1: never had an issue with him. I do feel like
Speaker 1: he was born to play this role. Though, Wow, we're
Speaker 1: not having that. We're not having that, we're not having
Speaker 1: that way is yet in this film he makes the
Speaker 1: biggest sacrifice sacrifice And in this film he's serving Chairman
Speaker 1: Fred because in order to show you what Chairman Fred is,
Speaker 1: you have to show him what he isn't. You can't
Speaker 1: see the light without the dark, that's right, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And he served that and he put
Speaker 1: himself in a light that's not his politics at all.
Speaker 1: You know, he doesn't that's not how he feels at all.
Speaker 1: And it was really tough on him on certain dates.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was really going through it as for
Speaker 1: him to to not be aligned politically to O'Neil and
Speaker 1: still give it his all and still humanize him in
Speaker 1: order to show who Chairman Fred was, to show who
Speaker 1: the Black Panther Party was. That's incredible and absolute, absolute
Speaker 1: the key for that. Now he's doing an incredible job. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think all of yours special love answer to Dominique
Speaker 1: true she wrote that poem. It's incredible. Director Gibson, Ashton, Sanders,
Speaker 1: alg Smith Dominique Thorn killed this film, saying, there's so
Speaker 1: many incredible people in this film, you know, Jesse Plemons,
Speaker 1: It's like it's like it's a dream to be standing
Speaker 1: amongst these kinds of people. Like it's like you're like, wow,
Speaker 1: you look around, You're like, well, I'm just I'm so
Speaker 1: proud to be here for me. Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any black piece of art needs
Speaker 1: validation from any of these award shows. But I would
Speaker 1: love to see this film when all of the awards.
Speaker 1: I think you and Lakeith need to be up for
Speaker 1: Best Active, Best Supportant Act, or whatever it is. I
Speaker 1: think it should be Best Picture. Like I think it
Speaker 1: was that good. Yeah, you know what it isn't those recognizations,
Speaker 1: recognizing organizations are away for more people to see it,
Speaker 1: And that's the intention of film. You want this to
Speaker 1: reach as many people as possible. I feel that this
Speaker 1: is an entertaining film at the same time, Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: got the politics complex ideas. This is entertaining. I watched
Speaker 1: this my friends. I make films for my friends that
Speaker 1: I grew up with, saying, so I really care about
Speaker 1: things being you know, I'm a firm believe of accessible excellence,
Speaker 1: you know, simple special Johnder saying, and it being accessible,
Speaker 1: still reaching for like excellence in terms of craft, and
Speaker 1: I feel like this is this is this is able
Speaker 1: to reach the masses. Before this is the last question,
Speaker 1: how would you define Fred Hampton's legacy? How do you
Speaker 1: want this film to define Fred Hampton's legacy. It's about
Speaker 1: being in what people choose to learn from it, in
Speaker 1: what way people choose to move from it. It's how
Speaker 1: I feel I want this film to impact. It's that
Speaker 1: and also just being clear that this is a man
Speaker 1: that had incredible ideas and really implement He executed these
Speaker 1: ideas in turbulent times. You know, I'm saying, with a
Speaker 1: breakfast program, with the health free healthcare, with the educating kids,
Speaker 1: with the Rainbow Coalition. This man like really did it,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and really tired about his
Speaker 1: own And it's people understanding that and taking it in
Speaker 1: and feeling that and wanting to read up on it
Speaker 1: and wanted to learn more about it, want to empower themselves,
Speaker 1: wanted to love themselves the way they see the Black
Speaker 1: Pap Party loving themselves and loving their community. I want
Speaker 1: that all right, appreciate you for Jordas. And what about
Speaker 1: the soundtrack? And did you listen to the soundtrack and
Speaker 1: you ride out to the soundtrack at Yeah, I've had
Speaker 1: a couple of riddings, Bro, A couple of riddings are crazy,
Speaker 1: A couple sound tracks a bit crazy, Bro, the soundtracks
Speaker 1: a bit crazy, John saying that Nipsey jay Z that's
Speaker 1: a that's A that's a that's a Newsy Bro. And
Speaker 1: when you get really rich, you should buy a black
Speaker 1: panther because it's something the universe is trying to tell
Speaker 1: you about black panthers. You've been in the movie Black Panther.
Speaker 1: Now you playing Fred Hampton. You should actually buy a
Speaker 1: black panther the way Mike Tyson out a white Tige
Speaker 1: as a pet. Buy a black panthers a pet. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my mom really grew up in Africa. I don't know
Speaker 1: what you feel about that. We have people people. Why
Speaker 1: are you buying these people buying wild animals? My guy,
Speaker 1: I'm buying wild animals. I'm cool about my God, I
Speaker 1: supposed one for you. I could to shame a man.
Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, my big guys. Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is d J Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are to Breakfast Club on this Friday. What do
Speaker 1: you guys do for Valentis? I'm just curious watching Judas
Speaker 1: in The Black messire y'all should definitely go check that
Speaker 1: movie out. All right. It's very triggering, very dark, but
Speaker 1: it's a good movie to watch for the weekend, good
Speaker 1: date night movie. What about your gear? I don't really
Speaker 1: have any plans on Sunday. I'll just be home. You know,
Speaker 1: my boyfriend doesn't live here. So all right, what what
Speaker 1: you're doing? Another angle swap for COVID? Maybe? Okay? Do
Speaker 1: that you need? You need your situation for the swap. No,
Speaker 1: I'm good, Okay, I'm one tested. All right, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I got it. It is brown at the end. Let's
Speaker 1: get to the rooms. Let's talk Morris's chestnuts. Okay. This
Speaker 1: is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee Breakfast Club. Mars
Speaker 1: Tessnat was talking to Timz about the new series The
Speaker 1: Best Man the final chapters, and he discusses his character
Speaker 1: Lance and what could be happening because remember his wife
Speaker 1: in the movie actually die from was yeah, dying from cancer.
Speaker 1: So here's what you can expect. The last time we
Speaker 1: saw Lance, he was going through it emotionally and it
Speaker 1: kind of ended there, so we kind of never really,
Speaker 1: we never really saw how Lance really dealt with that loss.
Speaker 1: I think in the in the series, you're going to
Speaker 1: see how Lance deals with it emotionally, and sometimes he
Speaker 1: may go a little bit overboard, but we'll have to
Speaker 1: see that's him dealing with it. Does do we see
Speaker 1: him move on to another love interest at all in
Speaker 1: this upcoming series? That's a possibility. I am very excited
Speaker 1: about the Best Man TV series. I'm happy they get
Speaker 1: in ten episodes on NBC. Peacock all right. In another
Speaker 1: series that's in the works is Ray has a new
Speaker 1: show with HBO Max called rap Is Shows right and
Speaker 1: to a half hour comedy. It's going to tell the
Speaker 1: story of two alienated high school friends from Miami who
Speaker 1: get together and assemble a rap group. And guess who
Speaker 1: is going to be working on this the city's co
Speaker 1: executive producers that said should happen months ago, drop on
Speaker 1: a clues box with each Ray DAMMI Okay, Remember I
Speaker 1: said that people were like, why you give people that
Speaker 1: actually do TV chances and opportunities? No, that makes too
Speaker 1: much sense. You're doing a TV show about a rap
Speaker 1: group in Miami, a female rap group. Why wouldn't you
Speaker 1: hilt to City Girls? Come on? All right? Also, the
Speaker 1: label coach K and P from Quality Control will also
Speaker 1: be involved as well. And she should cast Pretty V.
Speaker 1: She should cast pretty Views from Miami. And Pretty V
Speaker 1: would be a great on the show like that. I
Speaker 1: don't know what role she would play. She could be
Speaker 1: one of the main characters and not. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but I just think Pretty V should be on that
Speaker 1: show and show way shape or form shout out QC.
Speaker 1: They do it a lot outside of just music. I
Speaker 1: know they got a bunch of sports players that play
Speaker 1: for the NFL. I know they're doing films. They're really
Speaker 1: expanding their brand. I love to all right. Twitter has
Speaker 1: confirmed and Donald Trump will never return now. The CFO
Speaker 1: Ned Segal was on CNBC squawk Box and here's what
Speaker 1: he said. So, the way our policies work, when you're
Speaker 1: removed from the platform, you're removed from the platform, whether
Speaker 1: you're a commentator or a CFO, or you are a
Speaker 1: former or current public official. And so remember our policies.
Speaker 1: You're designed to make sure that people are not inciting violence,
Speaker 1: and if anybody does that, we have to remove him
Speaker 1: from the service and our policies to allow people to
Speaker 1: come back. That's a lie. Twitter, y'all don't get no
Speaker 1: props for that. The four years that man was in power,
Speaker 1: y'all did nothing. Yell should have had that same energy
Speaker 1: four years ago. It is easy to do that when
Speaker 1: he's not the president of the United States anymore, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Should have did that when he
Speaker 1: was in power. No props for that. And there's plenty
Speaker 1: of people threatening death on on folks every single day
Speaker 1: on social media. What are you talking about all right now?
Speaker 1: A Krispy Kreme Donuts that was owned by Shack was
Speaker 1: in flames early Wednesday, and they said the structure was
Speaker 1: heavily damaged. Atlanta fire crews did respond to that Krispy
Speaker 1: Creme on ponstantly on they said it's just unsalvageable right now.
Speaker 1: So it was one of the first locations established outside
Speaker 1: of the company's main base of operations in Winston Salem,
Speaker 1: North Carolina and Nashville, Tennessee. Now, Shaq said, I hope
Speaker 1: no one was hurt and we will bounced back better
Speaker 1: than ever, so was it was it operating like it?
Speaker 1: Was it open at the time? Was it after hours?
Speaker 1: I think it was after hours. I think it was nighttime,
Speaker 1: wasn't it? It was it was early Wednesday and they
Speaker 1: said firefighters did say most of the building and the
Speaker 1: fire started in the back. There were no injuries and
Speaker 1: the cause of the fire was under investigation. You know
Speaker 1: they opening one on Route Fur. Did you see it?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That? In New Jersey? Yeah?
Speaker 1: In New Jersey. You know that McDonald's used to be
Speaker 1: on Route for right when you get over the George
Speaker 1: Washington Bridge on the right hand side. They building a
Speaker 1: whole big Krispy Creme over there, which is just gonna
Speaker 1: mess up. One on, It's one on, It's one on.
Speaker 1: What that all right? I would have been me a
Speaker 1: dozen during the fire though if it wasn't too bad.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie City Sun. Justin Comes has landed
Speaker 1: a late night show respectively, Justin on a Revolt of course,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have social media personality Justin the Boy
Speaker 1: on to co host now did he has already made
Speaker 1: a comment about the show. He said, Justin the Boy
Speaker 1: is one of the biggest is the biggest social media
Speaker 1: starr in our culture. There is no better place for
Speaker 1: his debut show. We are thrilled to welcome him to
Speaker 1: the Revolt family. And the show already has some huge
Speaker 1: guests like Chris Brown lined up, and they're also going
Speaker 1: to have a demon time segment complete with champagne and music,
Speaker 1: respectfully dropping the clue's bombs for Justin's Justin the Boy
Speaker 1: and Justin comes all right, Well that is your room
Speaker 1: and report. I'm Angela yee, all right, thank you, miss ye. Now, Charlomage,
Speaker 1: who're giving that? Donken Man, let's talk Gorilla song jelly
Speaker 1: all right, four after the hour? Right, do you want
Speaker 1: your plans? Room for Valentine's Day? We'll talk about it,
Speaker 1: all right, we'll get into it next it's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good Morning's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a
Speaker 1: Democrat for being Donkey of the days, a little bit
Speaker 1: of a mixed so like a dog. Now. I've been
Speaker 1: called a lot of my twenty three years. But Donkey
Speaker 1: of the Bay is a new wife. Yes, Donkey of
Speaker 1: Today for Friday, February twelfth, goes to a Louisiana man
Speaker 1: named Lynn Martin. Lynn is thirty seven years old. I
Speaker 1: have no idea what he does with his life, and
Speaker 1: I am quite intrigued to find out, because whatever it
Speaker 1: is he does, he needs to do more. Okay, he's
Speaker 1: clearly got too much time on his hands. Now we
Speaker 1: all know the legend of Tessica Brown by now right.
Speaker 1: Tessica Brown was the forty year old woman who ran
Speaker 1: out of her usual hairspray and decided to use gorilla
Speaker 1: glue spray adhesive, which caused their hair to become stuck
Speaker 1: in place up and it stuck my ass. Okay, I
Speaker 1: hear you, Cardy, But Tessica Brown proves up isn't the
Speaker 1: only place things can get stuck because she was trying
Speaker 1: to lay her hair down. Listen to Tessica, my hair
Speaker 1: has been like this for about a month now. It's
Speaker 1: not much choice. My hell, it don't move, it burns.
Speaker 1: Then they got some people out there saying she did
Speaker 1: this for coke. I put it on social media to
Speaker 1: get help. Now, Tessica was able to get the gorilla
Speaker 1: seeming removed after a procedure was done by Beverly Hills
Speaker 1: based plastic surgeon doctor Michael Obeying. Okay, dropping the clues
Speaker 1: bomb for Tessica. I'm glad you're back. You got that
Speaker 1: out your hair. Okay. Now, you would think that Tessica
Speaker 1: would be an example to us all. I don't know
Speaker 1: how you all operate, but I operate from the smart
Speaker 1: people learn from their own mistakes. Wise people learn from
Speaker 1: the mistakes of others. Model Tessica did that, so hopefully
Speaker 1: you don't have to go through that. But yesterday I
Speaker 1: was reminded yet again as to why I've been here
Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club for ten years, Monday through Friday,
Speaker 1: and every day at eight o four a m. L clockwork.
Speaker 1: I never have a shortage of people to give the
Speaker 1: credit they deserve for being stupid. Because Lynn Martin, thirty
Speaker 1: seven years old, decided that he had to see what
Speaker 1: that gorilla jids was hitting for himself. Why did he
Speaker 1: want to rub this gorilla baby battle on his lips? Wow?
Speaker 1: Because Lynn clearly refuses to believe all women. Whatever story
Speaker 1: Tessica was selling, Lynn wasn't buying. Let's go to w
Speaker 1: k b U CBS twenty seven for the report. Please,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sure y'all got some grilla glue right here.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take it Parolea's cup put in my mouth,
Speaker 1: then it't gonna be the liquid and get at all.
Speaker 1: It's easy the rilla glue garbage. But that was actually Linna.
Speaker 1: Let me hear Lynde again. I can't really unerstand. I
Speaker 1: don't speak nigga like I used to live. At what
Speaker 1: he's saying. Let me hear. I'm gonna sure y'all got
Speaker 1: some grilla glue right here. I'm gonna take it. Perarolea's
Speaker 1: cup put in my mouth, then it't gonna be the
Speaker 1: licking and get at all. It's easy the glue garbage. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me translate. So Lynna decided to take this gorilla
Speaker 1: banana nut milk and apply it to a Red Solo cup.
Speaker 1: First of all the levels of niggatry in this story,
Speaker 1: the Red Solo Cup. The Red Solo Cup is like
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl Trophia kickbacks. I can only imagine that
Speaker 1: the way holding an Oscar fields for actors after winning
Speaker 1: is how I feel when I got that Red Solo
Speaker 1: Cup in my hand with a few cubes and I
Speaker 1: icing some Cassenger going to san jejo in it. I right,
Speaker 1: the Red Solo Cup does not get the respect it
Speaker 1: deserves for the joy it has bought so many of us,
Speaker 1: young and old, black and white, man a female. It
Speaker 1: don't matter drop on a Colos bombs for the Red
Speaker 1: Solo Cup. If it's one thing all of us have
Speaker 1: in common in the Divided States of America is that
Speaker 1: whatever function we having from Bob Mitziph's the barbecues, gender showers,
Speaker 1: that I finally got this gorilla oyster droppings out my hair.
Speaker 1: That damn Red Solo Cup is dead. Now. That Red
Speaker 1: Solo Cup had a front row seat all right to
Speaker 1: a great moment, just like Red Solo cups have had
Speaker 1: a front row seat to a lot of great moments
Speaker 1: and a lot of dumb ones. This is a dumb
Speaker 1: one because Lynn put the gorilla pearl jam on the
Speaker 1: Red Solo Cup and attached it to his lip because
Speaker 1: whatever is between his ears and under his dredge and
Speaker 1: under that dirty ass snapback, it told him he could
Speaker 1: just lick it off all right. Three hours later, Lynn
Speaker 1: showed up to the hospital with a Red Solo Cup
Speaker 1: stuck on his upper lip. I hate it here. Now,
Speaker 1: let's go to w KBU CBS twenty seven for the report.
Speaker 1: I was there for maybe about a little over an
Speaker 1: hour or two hours or so. Basically I had my
Speaker 1: pressure was up. I mean, I have was going through
Speaker 1: a lot of distress also, and they did like a peeling,
Speaker 1: basically a marshman peeling, you know, to get it off
Speaker 1: from then from my upper skin on my lip. Basically
Speaker 1: all that has been torn off, you know. Okay, let
Speaker 1: me translate, because once again some of y'all don't speak nigga.
Speaker 1: All right, He took the gorilla glue, put it on
Speaker 1: a red solo cup and attached it to his lip. Okay,
Speaker 1: because he wanted to prove that you could just lick
Speaker 1: the gorilla glue off his lip. Let me tell you something.
Speaker 1: Jealousy and envy are really the root of all evil,
Speaker 1: especially on social media. This dude, Lynn was just straight
Speaker 1: up envious of the attention Tessica was receiving. People would
Speaker 1: be so jealous an upset of the attention folks receive.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if a person who's going viral for
Speaker 1: all the wrong reasons, folks will still get upset that
Speaker 1: it's not them. This young lady, Tessica started to go
Speaker 1: fund me, got thirteen thousand dollars, and Lynn said, oh hell, no,
Speaker 1: hold my beer in this red Solo cup I'm going in.
Speaker 1: That was absolutely paratively zero reason for Lynda to involve
Speaker 1: himself in this situation. But what also scares me about
Speaker 1: this is that a thirty seven year old man doesn't
Speaker 1: know the difference between real and fake. A lot of
Speaker 1: y'all don't when it comes to the Internet. This is
Speaker 1: a prime example of it. Lynn, and I'm sure plenty
Speaker 1: of others thought Tessica was doing this for cloud. She
Speaker 1: just wanted attention, Okay, like all these other digital d heads.
Speaker 1: So even though something was actually real, you didn't believe it.
Speaker 1: But if something is fake, y'all do believe it. Virtual
Speaker 1: reality has ruined folks natural discernment. And now you got
Speaker 1: Lynn who probably won't be able to use his lips
Speaker 1: the same way he used to. Ever again, he might
Speaker 1: even lose some of his upper lip, and I must say,
Speaker 1: if that happens, he earned it. See, when you don't
Speaker 1: appreciate what you have, God, the universe will take it
Speaker 1: from you. And do you know, Lynda's the same brother
Speaker 1: who was going in stores licking ice cream doing that
Speaker 1: nutass ice cream challenge. Listen, we saw that you're on
Speaker 1: Doctor Oz in regards of the ice cream challenge, and
Speaker 1: then from looking on your Facebook page, we do see
Speaker 1: that you're a rapper, and many insinuate that you're doing
Speaker 1: these challenges to seek attention, to boost a rap career,
Speaker 1: or even just to go viral. So what are your
Speaker 1: thoughts on that. Well, I would never want to stick
Speaker 1: no gorilla glue to my lip and have it stuck
Speaker 1: there and have to go through all these situations I
Speaker 1: went through. Basically I was trying to start. Of course,
Speaker 1: everybody knows social media runs things right now, everybody's on
Speaker 1: social media. It gets a lot of attention, and that's
Speaker 1: what's going on. I mean, we do there's a lot
Speaker 1: of different challenges, so I wouldn't say that I'm doing
Speaker 1: it to boost my career because people start a new
Speaker 1: challenge every day. I didn't think it was going to
Speaker 1: go this far. Boiling Cardy and all Set said they
Speaker 1: do anything for Claude ain't never lie. Now he's putting
Speaker 1: gorilla prick liquid on his lips to prove a point.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. You don't respect your mouth,
Speaker 1: you don't respect your tongue, your lips. You want to
Speaker 1: disrespect that part of your face well, let me take
Speaker 1: something of it away from you. That's what the universe
Speaker 1: is saying, all right, so maybe you'll appreciate it more
Speaker 1: once it's gone. And this Sunday is Valentine's Day, Lena.
Speaker 1: If you got a girlfriend, a baby, mama, a wife,
Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you that she deserves better. And
Speaker 1: by better I mean a man with functioning lips, A
Speaker 1: man who didn't have a red Solo cup stuck to
Speaker 1: his mouth this week, all right, because he wanted to

Speaker 1: I need to know you can't everything when you're going downstairs.
Speaker 1: Well it's not I'm sorry. I'm a good storyteller. Okay,
Speaker 1: let me try to say that over there? You know, uh,
Speaker 1: your woman deserves better, And by better I mean a
Speaker 1: man with functioning lips, A man who didn't have a
Speaker 1: red Solo cup stuck to his mouth because he wanted
Speaker 1: to taste gorilla slung jelly. Can I say that? Yes?
Speaker 1: How you gonna perform oral sex on your woman? There
Speaker 1: you go? When your woman's lips down in there, when
Speaker 1: you don't have any lips up there? How you gonna
Speaker 1: even give you a woman? Sweet kisses on the lips
Speaker 1: on her face when you don't even even have any
Speaker 1: lips on your face. There you go, Okay, listen to brother.
Speaker 1: The story you're saying, you niggas is dumb as a
Speaker 1: under statement. All right, this is really the world we
Speaker 1: live in. And what's sad? These are the people you
Speaker 1: all be catering to on social media when you get
Speaker 1: online and you wait for folks to tell you how
Speaker 1: to feel about things. These are the people you are
Speaker 1: listening to. Okay, And guess what, all of y'all gonna
Speaker 1: get what you deserve, every single one of you. And
Speaker 1: right now, what Lynn Martin deserves is for remy Ma
Speaker 1: to give him the biggest he ha he ha he ha,
Speaker 1: you stupid mother? Fun? Are you dumb? What you're thinking about? Nothing?
Speaker 1: What do you I'm not talking to you? Who's who
Speaker 1: says I'm talking to you? Why you can see it?
Speaker 1: So triggering? Why you get trigger? What's wrong? Talk about
Speaker 1: some guys lips? And you start looking at me? What's wrong?
Speaker 1: Something wrong? The drawn tell me what's wrong? Nothing? What's
Speaker 1: wrong with you? I feel fun? Sure? How are you?
Speaker 1: What's the climate in here? Hot? What's your Are you kinky? Man,
Speaker 1: I knew it right up next we have the director
Speaker 1: of Judas and the Black Messiah, Shaka King. He's the
Speaker 1: producer director. We're gonna talk to him next and don't move.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Breakfast Club. We know
Speaker 1: that you ride black people right right morning. Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building
Speaker 1: the last hour. We spoke to Danielle Kalua. And now
Speaker 1: we have the producer and director of Judas and the
Speaker 1: Black Messiah. We have Shaka King. Good morning brother. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, congratulations on this movie. This is they're
Speaker 1: already talking about oscars and all of that. Does that
Speaker 1: matter to you? Um No, why not because we don't
Speaker 1: need white validation, but because when I first started, but
Speaker 1: I'd not even when I first started, honestly, for like
Speaker 1: my duration up until now, I've found Hollywood to be,
Speaker 1: you know, as racists, you know the rest of this country. Um,
Speaker 1: I would say that my experiences, you know, I went
Speaker 1: to school, I'm from Brooklyn and school and day Ridge
Speaker 1: as auel. You know you can attest that experience, you know,
Speaker 1: like I had cops making monkey sounds me when I
Speaker 1: was in seventh grade, you know what I mean. Nothing compares,
Speaker 1: though the experience of racism, my experience in Hollywood, you know,
Speaker 1: as an adult, and so when you go through that,
Speaker 1: you know, as I have, I at least my my
Speaker 1: reaction to it was to kind of recognize that Hollywood
Speaker 1: wasn't a meritocracy and that I couldn't measure my success
Speaker 1: based upon you know, whether you know, a white male
Speaker 1: dominant industry recognize me as talented. And so even though
Speaker 1: it's it's taken literally years of the programming for me
Speaker 1: to get to a place where I don't invest in
Speaker 1: that stuff. While I recognize that, you know, it's a gift,
Speaker 1: my prayer would make things easier to get made. And
Speaker 1: like you know, there's always going to be a part
Speaker 1: of you that wants to, you know, just be appreciated
Speaker 1: and have your work appreciated, especially by people you respect.
Speaker 1: At the same time, I can't sacrifice my power that
Speaker 1: way anymore. You know, I agree with you, but I
Speaker 1: think this film is phenomenal. And even though I totally
Speaker 1: agree with you, what everything you're saying about, you know,
Speaker 1: receiving validation from these award shows, these white male dominated
Speaker 1: a war shows. I want y'all to win all the
Speaker 1: awards because I don't know what else quantifies success. I
Speaker 1: want y'all to make all the money, win all the awards,
Speaker 1: because I know if that happens, more of these films
Speaker 1: will be made. I think this year in particular is
Speaker 1: one where I've had to sort of work through that,
Speaker 1: just because you know, normally you have the box office
Speaker 1: to prove whether it will be a success, and because
Speaker 1: everything is going to be streaming and did at the
Speaker 1: same time, you don't have the box office to determine
Speaker 1: whether a success. So this is an instance where you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of emphasis is going to be placed on
Speaker 1: awards to determine whether a movie did well. And I
Speaker 1: recognize that, you know, this movie literally stands on the
Speaker 1: success the shoulders of a Black Panther. I mean literally,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, we don't even get
Speaker 1: a meeting if you know, Ryan wasn't coming off the
Speaker 1: success of that film. And my hope is that, you know,
Speaker 1: films like this lead to more films about more revolutionaries
Speaker 1: across the globe. So who doesn't want that, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? But at the same time, just on
Speaker 1: a personal level, I can't allow myself to get too
Speaker 1: invested in, you know what, what the industry says about
Speaker 1: the about the film, it just wouldn't be just the
Speaker 1: my psyche, you know. And this is a different kind
Speaker 1: of movie from you from things that you've done in
Speaker 1: the past too. You know, obviously we know you're from Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: so you've done, you know, works that actually revolve around Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: Glyn and your experiences here. But I think one thing
Speaker 1: that people don't understand is they think this movie is
Speaker 1: mostly about Fred Hampton, like he hes the main character,
Speaker 1: but it's really the mformant William O'Neill who's the main
Speaker 1: character in this movie. Correct. I mean, I think it's
Speaker 1: really like talk about how the field came about before
Speaker 1: you break it out, Like, how did you even do this? Sure? Sure,
Speaker 1: well it came to me from the Lucas Brothers um
Speaker 1: comedy duo friends of Mine and Brilliant brilliant cast, and
Speaker 1: they reached out to me and they were like, well,
Speaker 1: we want to make a movie about Wayne O'Neill and
Speaker 1: Fred Hampton that we see as the Departed, set inside
Speaker 1: the world of Corntell pro Corntel program um the FBI's
Speaker 1: kind of intelligence program that was designed by Jago Hoover
Speaker 1: to crush you know, anyone that he did dissident. And
Speaker 1: so I just thought that was a brilliant concept. I
Speaker 1: thought it was really, quite frankly, the only way you'd
Speaker 1: ever have a movie made about Fred Hampton. And the
Speaker 1: truth of the matter is is that, you know, when
Speaker 1: you're talking about making a period film, a movie that
Speaker 1: takes place in nineteen sixty eight sixty nine, with that
Speaker 1: kind of scope, you can only make it at a
Speaker 1: studio just because it's going to cost a certain amount
Speaker 1: of money. It's gonna acquire. This is gonna acquire that,
Speaker 1: you know. And so when they pitched it to me,
Speaker 1: I was just like, Yeah, this is brilliant. I can
Speaker 1: see it. I see this as an opportunity to put
Speaker 1: forth not just this history, but this great man's ideas
Speaker 1: and this great organization's ideas that I think are just
Speaker 1: as applicable to the world we live in today. In
Speaker 1: a piece of pop culture that travels across the globe
Speaker 1: and that entertains people, and they could you know, as
Speaker 1: as Chairman Ford Hampton Jane says, you know, put the
Speaker 1: medicine and the apple sauce, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I was asking a question about just making this because
Speaker 1: I saw some critiques of it and people saying talking
Speaker 1: about Fred Hampton and how they didn't feel like his
Speaker 1: character was developed enough and they didn't show this. But
Speaker 1: this really was more about William O'Neill, and obviously fred
Speaker 1: Hampton was a huge part in why William O'Neill were
Speaker 1: focused on him. But can you just break that down
Speaker 1: and why it was more told from that point of view? Well,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's actually told. Really. It
Speaker 1: to me that it's more of a two hander. It's
Speaker 1: like heat more than it is, you know, a movie
Speaker 1: where it's told through O'Neil's POV. I mean the truth
Speaker 1: that matter is. It's like, I think that people think
Speaker 1: that because we use this interview that waym O'Neill gave
Speaker 1: to Eyes on the Prize too. We recreate the interview
Speaker 1: and then you know, I'm not going to spoil it,
Speaker 1: but the interview plays a role in the film, even
Speaker 1: though it's not in the film a ton But I
Speaker 1: think because of that structure, people think that the movie
Speaker 1: is from O'Neill's perspective. But the truth that matter is
Speaker 1: that when you're looking at Fred, he's most of the
Speaker 1: time independent of O'Neill, and it's actually from Deborah Johnson's
Speaker 1: perspective that's when you really get a sense of who
Speaker 1: he is. And so the reason we chose to make
Speaker 1: it a two hander was because we literally the framing
Speaker 1: device that we first thought of, and it's changed as
Speaker 1: we've made the thing, was the departed in the world
Speaker 1: of Colan tempo. That was how we were going to
Speaker 1: get the movie made. That was how we were going
Speaker 1: to get the movie out there. I think from a
Speaker 1: political perspective, the reason to kind of make it a
Speaker 1: two hander and lean into that is that you have
Speaker 1: an opportunity to present almost like two poles of nity.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. You have in Fred Hampton
Speaker 1: one of the bravest, most courageous people of all time.
Speaker 1: You have WAYM. O'Neill, you know, one of the most
Speaker 1: coward like, biggest cowards we can think of in history.
Speaker 1: You know, you have in Fred Hampton someone who is
Speaker 1: interested in building coalitions. You haven't William O'Neill, a pure individualist.
Speaker 1: You know, in Fred Hampton. You have a socialist in
Speaker 1: a Marxist and so to me, you have this opportunity
Speaker 1: to really like look at these two people who exist
Speaker 1: on kind of you know, two different Posy Vanny, and
Speaker 1: kind of explore that. And I think in some ways,
Speaker 1: you know, if we did our job correctly, it you
Speaker 1: as a viewer can kind of watch it, watch this
Speaker 1: movie and even subconsciously question like where you are fit,
Speaker 1: you know, along along that like spectrum, Like everyone wants
Speaker 1: to believe that they would be Fred Hampton um, but
Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is is that there are
Speaker 1: a lot more William O'Neil's in this world than there
Speaker 1: are Fred Hampton's. And you know, it's kind of a
Speaker 1: lost opportunity, just like make this guy just like a
Speaker 1: cartoon villain, um, when you know he's just he was
Speaker 1: an eighteen year old guy who made like really bad
Speaker 1: decisions and some really bad choices. Like, Yo, how many
Speaker 1: people do we know in prison right now? And they're
Speaker 1: in prisons because someone you know, told, told told of them. Yeah, right,
Speaker 1: so many more people would be like, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to jail. I am telling it what y'all need need
Speaker 1: to do, So I don't got to go to jail.
Speaker 1: And that's just I mean, he seduced. He seduced. Like
Speaker 1: it's starting. It starts with the way that they do
Speaker 1: it is they go listen, you don't know this guy,
Speaker 1: Just go and tell me what you hear. You don't
Speaker 1: just just keep just see what you're here. If you know,
Speaker 1: if you hear something, tell me. And then they start
Speaker 1: paying them. Here's some money, here's a drink, here's a cigar,
Speaker 1: have a good times. And they just started. Don't you win?
Speaker 1: We have more with the director of Judas in The
Speaker 1: Black Messiah when we come back Shaka Kings, don't move
Speaker 1: us to breakfast club. The more everybody is d j Envy,
Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are the breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: We're kicking it with Shaka King, the director of Judas
Speaker 1: and The Black Messiah. Charlemagne. You think it's more important
Speaker 1: for white people to see this movie or black people.
Speaker 1: I think it's important for everyone to see it. I
Speaker 1: made it for my first people. I made it for us,
Speaker 1: was for black people. You know, there's certain decisions, I
Speaker 1: mean every decision, but there's some specific, specific decisions and
Speaker 1: even like how we framed the assassination that it was
Speaker 1: like very clear, like, Okay, we're not going to show
Speaker 1: you know this, this man getting shot in the head.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna put us through that. You know, there
Speaker 1: were choice, there were decisions that you know, there was
Speaker 1: a desire at one point, not on my start the
Speaker 1: movie with the Jagger Hoover sequence that you see fairly
Speaker 1: early in the film, and I was like, yeah, we
Speaker 1: can't start the movie with Jagger Hoover talking about the Panthers.
Speaker 1: We have to let the panthers speak for themselves. You know.
Speaker 1: I would say that was who I made it for.
Speaker 1: But I also did certain things. There's certain pieces in
Speaker 1: the movie that I made for white like the character
Speaker 1: of Roy Mitchell and how I shaped that character. I
Speaker 1: made that specifically for white people because I wanted them
Speaker 1: to understand the shortcomings of being a white centrist, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like that that's not actually true
Speaker 1: ally ship and this whole idea of decency and all
Speaker 1: that jazz, it's just performative. It's it's hollow, you know,
Speaker 1: like a centrist will shoot you in the head and
Speaker 1: two years later try to name a city block after you,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, how long does it take
Speaker 1: to research a movie like this, Like just so people
Speaker 1: know the whole process, because it's not just writing a
Speaker 1: script and going into it. How much goes into research?
Speaker 1: I mean true though, like three years research, three to
Speaker 1: four years of research. You know, it's the four year
Speaker 1: process to get it to the screen. And I was
Speaker 1: still doing I mean I was going to research up
Speaker 1: until we got when we were in Cleveland, So I
Speaker 1: say four years. I say four years probably aside from
Speaker 1: sharing the life and legacy of Fred Hampton. What method
Speaker 1: do you want this movie to sin? But one of
Speaker 1: the reasons for me to make O'Neill a private characters,
Speaker 1: I really wanted to show the dangers of being a
Speaker 1: political you know what I'm saying. And we made this
Speaker 1: movie in two nineteen. You know, obviously twenty twenty happens,
Speaker 1: and I don't think many people came out of two
Speaker 1: thousand and twenty eight political right, But like, you know,
Speaker 1: I think it's still an important message to get across,
Speaker 1: just this idea of you know, it's it's the old phase.
Speaker 1: If you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything, you know.
Speaker 1: William O'Neill's decision to really believe in nothing other and
Speaker 1: invest in nothing other than you know, essentially a capitalist
Speaker 1: ideology and culture. It didn't just crush I hate to
Speaker 1: use the term crushing movement, but it really did. It
Speaker 1: really really was deeply detrimental. You know, the Panthers remained
Speaker 1: active in Illinois Kill nineteen seventy four for five years
Speaker 1: after the assassination, but it was incredibly detrimental not just
Speaker 1: to you know, the Illinois chapter, but to the national
Speaker 1: chapters a whole, and to Chicago as a whole. Chicago
Speaker 1: would have been a different place handing so his but
Speaker 1: his actually then just hurt those people. It hurt him.
Speaker 1: You look at how his story ends, you know, talking
Speaker 1: about a dude who in the seventies walked away with
Speaker 1: almost two hundred thousand in his pocket. Damn there the
Speaker 1: equivalent of that had two phones in his car, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean in the seventies, and he still
Speaker 1: took his own life at forty years old. You know,
Speaker 1: he still didn't get a nice, a nice, a nice piece,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So so he couldn't live
Speaker 1: with himself. So I think that there's there's value in
Speaker 1: putting that out there, um, you know, And I think
Speaker 1: there's just millions of things take. You know, there's obviously
Speaker 1: highlighting the legacy of the of the Panthers, but it's
Speaker 1: also I think showing this country's history of you know,
Speaker 1: repressing voices of dissent. You know. I think I think that,
Speaker 1: you know, like I said on a part of Roy Mitchell,
Speaker 1: there's there's, you know, an indictment of white central centrism.
Speaker 1: I think there's a number of things you could take
Speaker 1: from this movie. It's a dense film. That's why I'm
Speaker 1: glad it's HBO. Maxallyople watch it two times and get
Speaker 1: something different out of it the second time. You know, well,
Speaker 1: I think y'all did a great job. Man. I think
Speaker 1: it's a phenomenal film. I think it's one of those
Speaker 1: ones for for a generation. You know, how when you
Speaker 1: was I mean I'm forty two, how old you about
Speaker 1: we was younger? You know, you watched the autobiography of
Speaker 1: Malcolm X, You're like, wow, I gotta I gotta know.
Speaker 1: I want to know more about the nation. I want
Speaker 1: to know more about you know, Malcolm Nonibo, Elijah Muhammed.
Speaker 1: I think y'all definitely created one of those personally, That's
Speaker 1: how I feel. Thank you, Thank you. Thank you. That
Speaker 1: was the goal I was to me, that's the blueprint
Speaker 1: in terms of biopics and in terms of I remember
Speaker 1: how I felt leaving the theater as a kid watching
Speaker 1: Malcolm X. I read the autobiography because my parents had
Speaker 1: me on that young you know, but I reread it
Speaker 1: a million times after that movie, and it's it's just
Speaker 1: it's the blueprint in my opinion. Yeah, I read it
Speaker 1: once a year. I think we should start calling movies
Speaker 1: like that, and we should start calling movies like Judas
Speaker 1: in the Black Side. We should start calling these types
Speaker 1: of movies proper Ganda because the proper stories are being told.
Speaker 1: I love that. I love that. I love that. But
Speaker 1: thank you Shaka so much for making time for us.
Speaker 1: Judis and the Blacking Science is available now to make
Speaker 1: sure you guys stream that. However you have to watch it.
Speaker 1: It's on HBO Max, right, yep, HBO Max. And did
Speaker 1: the same day, Shaka, Thank you, brother. I hope you
Speaker 1: get the opportunity to thank you. I'm already tell more
Speaker 1: of our stories, man, because you did a great job.
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, yes, so much. Thank you. The Breakfast Club

Speaker 1: an unofficial mental health advocate you know, for the past
Speaker 1: few years. So it's just like, you know, why not,
Speaker 1: why not why not do the work for real, for real?
Speaker 1: And now no, I don't even want to call it

Speaker 1: for real for real? Okay, yes, all right? Where can
Speaker 1: people donate? Oh, you can go to the Mental Wealth
Speaker 1: Alliance dot com. You can go to the Mental Wealth

Speaker 1: So um I made some donations to a few organizations yesterday.
Speaker 1: So it's gonna keep all right. Now, Another good news
Speaker 1: Tory Lanes, who remix Young Blues Your Mind still featuring Drake.
Speaker 1: We told you earlier this morning about the back and
Speaker 1: forth they have because Tory Lanes did not give Young
Speaker 1: Blue any credit for his song. Well, it looks like
Speaker 1: the two of them are now in the studio after
Speaker 1: they're back back and forth last night online. If fich
Speaker 1: remix might niver Now officially, I'm gonna tag them on
Speaker 1: anything I ever do ever in life now we're here.
Speaker 1: We just made a hit. We're gonna keep making hit.
Speaker 1: That's what he should have done. Drop on a clues
Speaker 1: box for Tory Lanes on the right thing. Getting young
Speaker 1: boys with credit, man, that's the least you can. Don't
Speaker 1: think it was malice though. That's everybody does that to
Speaker 1: everybody's soul. I never said it was malis, but I
Speaker 1: can understand why Young Blue would be upset. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm a new artist, I'm on to come up. You
Speaker 1: remix my song? Damn at least tag a brother. And
Speaker 1: probably was also thinking that it's a well known song
Speaker 1: and people know it's his. But you know, he wanted
Speaker 1: a little he probably and he said he liked it.
Speaker 1: I'm Blue said he liked it. But I guess you know.
Speaker 1: I'm glad they worked it out. They didn't know each other,
Speaker 1: so now they've spoken, now they know each other. That
Speaker 1: all worked out for the best. Sometimes credit is more
Speaker 1: important than anything else, because sometimes people just need to
Speaker 1: know who you are. Now now now a lot more
Speaker 1: people know who Young Blue is. After the day. Correct,
Speaker 1: young Young Blue got a record with Drake. But I
Speaker 1: bet you people don't know that Young Blue. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think they do. I mean, he's pretty popular amongst a
Speaker 1: certain demo, the casual person actually, and check out his
Speaker 1: latest episode of lip service. He's been on lip service also,
Speaker 1: just I mean, I think a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: shout out to Young Blue. All right now, Erica Banks,
Speaker 1: her Busted remix features Travis Scott, so that's pretty amazing
Speaker 1: for her. Here is a preview of that bucket. Locke
Speaker 1: it drop it. We're going. I'm like to stock it
Speaker 1: outside it inside the level with chocolate throwing watching cake
Speaker 1: it profit biscuit and big get my bus side of pocket.
Speaker 1: She keep it up without my bus on a locket.
Speaker 1: What did you come in with? Gaily? Your phone at

Speaker 1: I like it. I like it. I know I do.
Speaker 1: I like it. I don't hear Travis Scott or bust. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I thought it sounded good. All right now fifty cent.
Speaker 1: According to reports after that Super Bowl party that he
Speaker 1: had the venue where he had it lost its lease. So,
Speaker 1: according to Tampa Bay Time, sky Attic Aviation has just
Speaker 1: six months to pack up and leave. It's a three
Speaker 1: thousand square foot hanger in office space day I wonder
Speaker 1: if that's directly because of him or it just was timing, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if they did that just because of
Speaker 1: him having that party there, or if it's because they
Speaker 1: were already going to do that. I don't know timing honestly.
Speaker 1: All Right. Now, doctor Dre and April Jones, who were
Speaker 1: spotted together and now people are saying that they are dating.
Speaker 1: Doctor Dre was spotted entering Boa Steakhouse in La Wednesday night,
Speaker 1: and the woman that he's with is April Jones. You
Speaker 1: know April as the mother of a Marian's children. She's
Speaker 1: been on Love and hip hop. She also is a
Speaker 1: singer and songwriter. So I don't know what it means,
Speaker 1: but people think that it does mean that they're having
Speaker 1: a little date night during this time period. That's not
Speaker 1: a bad one for her, all right. And halle Berry
Speaker 1: posted on Instagram women don't owe you ish and that's on.
Speaker 1: Mary had a little lamb Now. She also talked about
Speaker 1: paying child support. She said, I've been paying it for
Speaker 1: a decade now. I feel if a woman or a
Speaker 1: man is having to pay support, that is way more
Speaker 1: than the reasonable needs to help support the child. I
Speaker 1: think that is wrong. She also clarified that while some
Speaker 1: parents may need help, she feels that in these modern times,
Speaker 1: both men and women have the responsibility to financially take
Speaker 1: care of their children and work hard and make every
Speaker 1: effort to do so. She blasted up parents who used
Speaker 1: children in order to be awarded money to live a
Speaker 1: lifestyle that not only did they not earn, but that
Speaker 1: is way above and beyond the child's reasonable needs. And
Speaker 1: there's so many baby daddies out there saying, preach, Holly, preach,
Speaker 1: now you know how we finally feel. Yes, absolutely everything
Speaker 1: she said is one hundred percent correct. And she pays
Speaker 1: sixteen thousand a month in child support right now, come on, man,
Speaker 1: come on, she said, it's extortion. Do you listen. You
Speaker 1: know how many baby daddy's been feeling like that forever,
Speaker 1: Not to mention baby daddy's getting locked up when they
Speaker 1: get behind on their child support, Like come on, Yes,
Speaker 1: she's absolutely right, but also remember it goes both ways.
Speaker 1: All right, Well that is your rumor report. All right,
