Speaker 1: Monique had her prayer scope going yesterday during the interview,
Speaker 1: and she already leaked it online. She leaked it to
Speaker 1: some people. Some people haven't heard yet, they just heard
Speaker 1: about it. That is true that I definitely know. Everybody
Speaker 1: don't know it because her Facebook game popping like that.
Speaker 1: But my thing is, it's an hour long interview. The
Speaker 1: whole thing will be the whole thing will be out
Speaker 1: in full later today, but we'll be playing some of
Speaker 1: it the next hour, right. And this is the second
Speaker 1: time ever, I think in Breakfast Club history that we
Speaker 1: haven't taken a picture after the interview with the person
Speaker 1: left Berman. Oh, we didn't take a picture with Burdman
Speaker 1: because he just left, and we didn't take a picture
Speaker 1: with Monique. Those are the two people that we haven't
Speaker 1: taken pictures. She did have to go, and she didn't
Speaker 1: have to go. Yeah, you and she was you know,
Speaker 1: we went over and stop lying. Monique did not leave
Speaker 1: happy whatsoever. Okay, she she actually, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna put that a little piece of the video out later,
Speaker 1: but you'll see how she left later on. Yeah, she
Speaker 1: gave me a hug, She gave me a nice hug,
Speaker 1: and she said some words to you. She definitely gave
Speaker 1: you hug. She called me a slave or something like that.
Speaker 1: She said something. Yeah, she went to Djoe. It wasn't Django,
Speaker 1: it was Birth of the Nation. She said, I was
Speaker 1: the slave that would take his wife to master to
Speaker 1: let masters sleep with him, or something to that effect. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's out too early. And oh no, no, no no, she
Speaker 1: said that right before walked out here that Oh we
Speaker 1: got that on video too. Baby, One thing about me,
Speaker 1: I tell the cameraman keep to camera's rolling from beginning
Speaker 1: to end. Okay, we don't miss nothing. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: that should be a lot of fun that happens next hour.
Speaker 1: We'll get that on and we got front page that's
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. We are going to talk about
Speaker 1: the Missouri governor Eric Grayton's he has been indicted. Will
Speaker 1: tell you what he did that caused that to happen.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into all that. Keep a lock
Speaker 1: that to breakfast club going on. And it's a Friday, Love.
Speaker 1: I was getting some front page news. Now let's talk
Speaker 1: Missouri governor. What's going on in Missouri? Well, yes, the
Speaker 1: Missouri Governor Eric Grayton's was indicted yesterday because of allegations
Speaker 1: of sexual misconduct and blackmail after he did admit that
Speaker 1: he had an affair. This all went down last month.
Speaker 1: He was charged with a first degree felony invasion of privacy.
Speaker 1: Now he is saying that he just made a personal mistake,
Speaker 1: and this is before he was in office. He said,
Speaker 1: as I have said before, I made a personal mistake
Speaker 1: before I was governor. I did not commit a crime.
Speaker 1: With today's disappointing and misguided political decision, my confidence in
Speaker 1: our prosecutorial system is shaken, but not broken. What happened
Speaker 1: is he took a picture of the woman in full
Speaker 1: of partial nudity without her knowledge or consent, and then
Speaker 1: transmitted that image in a manner that allowed access to
Speaker 1: that image via a computer. So he's not allowed to
Speaker 1: do that. And he was trying to blackmail the woman
Speaker 1: in trying to keep her quiet about their sexual encounter. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, if you're trying to keep your sexual
Speaker 1: encounter quiet, don't take pictures of the young lady. Why
Speaker 1: are you building a digital trail for yourself. Well, I
Speaker 1: guess he took it to be able to blackmail her
Speaker 1: later on so that she would anybody please give us
Speaker 1: some money like everybody else throng with furst of all,
Speaker 1: how old is he? That's the that's the fourteen fifteen
Speaker 1: year old to do. I got a new picture of you,
Speaker 1: so you better act writer. I'm actually clear this woman
Speaker 1: also was married, so her her now former husband is
Speaker 1: actually the person who also gave details about his former
Speaker 1: wife having an affair with Gryton's back in twenty fifteen.
Speaker 1: That's the best type of person to cheat with. If
Speaker 1: you married and they married, both of y'all got something
Speaker 1: to lose, you get caught. And then her husband tells,
Speaker 1: no cheating is ever good, child, man, No cheating is good.
Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, if you're going to do it,
Speaker 1: that's the way to do it, you know, with somebody
Speaker 1: that she was, somebody that got something to lose like
Speaker 1: you do. Now, let's talk about these what happened with
Speaker 1: the Florida shooting now? All right? Well, the sheriff's deputy
Speaker 1: who did not engage the shooter at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas
Speaker 1: High School feels like he did a good job, but
Speaker 1: he has resigned. Now Here is what Brower County Sheriff
Speaker 1: Scott Israel had to say about Scott Peterson. First, he
Speaker 1: suspended him without pay, and then Scott Peterson abruptly retired
Speaker 1: because they have video foot to showing that he actually
Speaker 1: never went inside the building. He was outside the building
Speaker 1: for four minutes while the shooter was killing students. In fact,
Speaker 1: so he heard the shoot him and then just decided, Hey,
Speaker 1: this is not everything. He didn't go inside, but he
Speaker 1: didn't call it in, so he feels like he did
Speaker 1: a good job. Hold on, he's a sheriff. No, the
Speaker 1: sheriff speaks on why he suspended Peterson. He's a school
Speaker 1: resource officer. Oh so, okay, that the school resource officers job.
Speaker 1: You don't got the school resource officers don't got no gun? Right? Hey,
Speaker 1: I think he does have a gun. Yeah, he has
Speaker 1: a gun. That's his job. He's doing security. So if
Speaker 1: he had a gun and he's doing already and he shook,
Speaker 1: how do you think teacher's gonna feel? Exactly? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. But let's hear what the actual sheriff
Speaker 1: who suspended Peterson without pay, Scott Israel, has to say.
Speaker 1: Scott Peterson was absolutely on campus through this entire event.
Speaker 1: He was armed, He was in uniform. After seeing video
Speaker 1: and Scott Peterson's very own statement, I decided to suspend
Speaker 1: Scott Peterson without pay, pending an internal investigation. Scott Peterson
Speaker 1: chose to resign because he has the necessary time with
Speaker 1: the agency and meets the requirements of retirement. He resigned
Speaker 1: and slash retired. So he never engaged in the bass
Speaker 1: cruise at all. He basically stood outside the building called
Speaker 1: it in like yo, there's a shooter, and I mean,
Speaker 1: what good at that? He froze? He definitely froze. Did
Speaker 1: he freeze? Come stop it, Scott Peterson frozen? There's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with that. The guy had an a off fifteen.
Speaker 1: But all I'm saying is Scott Peterson had a gun,
Speaker 1: all right, and he was shooking scared to going in
Speaker 1: and engage with this guy. How do y'all expect teachers
Speaker 1: to engage with this guy? Are these guys? The thing is? Yeah,
Speaker 1: And there's definitely something wrong with him freezing. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's your job, that's what you're there for. You could
Speaker 1: have saved seventeen lives. Hey, everybody got a plane till
Speaker 1: you get punched in the face. You can train for
Speaker 1: boxing all day long. Till you get into a real
Speaker 1: fight and then you get hitting you like up. You know,
Speaker 1: he was a thirty three year vet. Come on, and
Speaker 1: what kind of gun did you have? You're talking about
Speaker 1: a off fifteen verses probably had a revolver or a glock.
Speaker 1: But the problem is a lot of these schools and
Speaker 1: I'm sure, well you didn't have a security guard, but
Speaker 1: I'm sure Charlomagne did a lot of the security guards.
Speaker 1: The officers were old like they were old officers like
Speaker 1: it looked like they were about to retire, and this
Speaker 1: was an easy job for them. When I was a kid. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta think, you know, growing up, they didn't have
Speaker 1: the action that we got. Now, you might have to
Speaker 1: break up a fight or two or somebody didn't jump,
Speaker 1: but ain't nobody walking up in the school with a
Speaker 1: off fifteen. Don't all that chop action? All right, Well
Speaker 1: that is your front page news. All right, thank you,

Speaker 1: people will believe in a guy walked through the water.
Speaker 1: They'll believe that God died and resurrected, you know, but
Speaker 1: they can't fave on the fact that old Kay. You
Speaker 1: know what, the government might be responsible for some of
Speaker 1: these mass shootings, and you know mint because they want
Speaker 1: to push their mental illness agenda. Like the Brothers, they
Speaker 1: don't have mental illness. When they can murder, they do something.
Speaker 1: They thugs. You know that these guys out of control,
Speaker 1: their gangsters. But when a white guy killed the the
Speaker 1: shoot things, oh it's mental illness. They you guys jump
Speaker 1: to the mental illness thing. You know, the president is
Speaker 1: putting out mental illness. How you guys diagnosed and mental
Speaker 1: illness without knowing this person, without seeing this person. So
Speaker 1: every time when of these people say mental illness for
Speaker 1: white guys and taking on the burger king, they say,
Speaker 1: you can't tell me. That's not an agenda. You can't
Speaker 1: tell me. But he can potentially just be a disgusting,
Speaker 1: sick person. Why are we turning to mental illness? He's
Speaker 1: turning to mental illness every time a white person do something.
Speaker 1: But brothers get shot down in the street. Oh, they thug,
Speaker 1: so they deserved this. So they bad guys. Yo. President
Speaker 1: Trump called guys who's kneeling ton of a bitches, definitely
Speaker 1: calls them de nil. But a guy who shoots up
Speaker 1: somebody is mentally ill. How I'm mins the president. You
Speaker 1: ain't diagnosedis guy? You have no medical degrees. None of
Speaker 1: these guys have medical degrees, says the diagnosed mental illness.
Speaker 1: But if money gets shot up, they say in mental illness.
Speaker 1: Well listen, I agree with you one hundred percent, but
Speaker 1: I will say this sometimes it takes one in no one.
Speaker 1: And Donald Trump knows mental illness when he sees it.
Speaker 1: Come on, man, just like Columbus was a great guy.
Speaker 1: We got a holiday, right. They always do stuff to
Speaker 1: say this and that. Come on, we know what it
Speaker 1: is already, we know the agenda. So while we acting
Speaker 1: like we don't. All right, well, thanks for your call, man.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to say after that. Hello, who's this? Hello? Steve? Hey, Steve,
Speaker 1: get it off her chess bro Okay, Well, the one
Speaker 1: comment the guy made about that cop at the school
Speaker 1: was scared or something because you were like comparing the
Speaker 1: glock to the dude's rifle, the shooter's rifle. He froze ye,
Speaker 1: And that don't feel right. It ain't like the glock's
Speaker 1: gonna battle the rifle. The guy hits the kid with
Speaker 1: a glock round, he's going down. It's a block against
Speaker 1: the human, not a glock against the rifle. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, but I mean in the head
Speaker 1: and he's done. Yeah. You acting like you Yeah, we
Speaker 1: call it a high powered telic gun kind of knock
Speaker 1: him on his act. Yeah, but you're acting like this guy.
Speaker 1: You're acting like this guy was a sharp shooter. Okay.
Speaker 1: Number one and number two, clearly the guy was shook.
Speaker 1: The guy with the thirty three year veterans. How old
Speaker 1: was he in his fifties. You know what's crazy is
Speaker 1: that even now after all of this, he still thinks
Speaker 1: he did a good job. He definitely didn't do a
Speaker 1: good job, especially if you had a good job. He
Speaker 1: feels like he did what he was supposed to. I'm
Speaker 1: sure he was scared, and I know anybody in that
Speaker 1: situation would be scared, but he did not want to
Speaker 1: go in. And there was teachers in there without weapons
Speaker 1: that were trying to take that weapon from that guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it was an assistant gym teacher. I think
Speaker 1: the junior r C, junior r C leader, who else?
Speaker 1: And a student? I think they said, yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: so listen, some people got a heart, some people don't.
Speaker 1: And you know, the man froze. That's just what it is.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get it off your chest. Eight on
Speaker 1: drip five eighty five, one oh five one. If you're upset,
Speaker 1: you need to vent. You could hit us up. Then
Speaker 1: you got rumors on the way. Yes, we're gonna be
Speaker 1: talking about people having separations. Will tell you who just
Speaker 1: filed for divorce, who is leaving the brand that they've
Speaker 1: been working with, and who has some comments for their
Speaker 1: ex Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Speaker 1: He belocked us to breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast clubs.
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, report got Breakfast Club. Well. Drake put out
Speaker 1: a new pair of Obo Jordan's. They were snatched up
Speaker 1: just very quickly last week. And now the rumor is
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be leaving to go to Adidas. What
Speaker 1: do you think about that? I think that's a good
Speaker 1: move because Adidas is probably offering equity. Adidas is probably
Speaker 1: cutting checks. I doubt Jordan Brand is cutting checks. They're
Speaker 1: just letting you do the sneaker they absolutely on And
Speaker 1: I think they've done it with Pharrell, They've done it
Speaker 1: with Kanye, and I think Drake is big enough of
Speaker 1: us to do the same. Yeah, San of those Jordan's.
Speaker 1: But sometimes you gotta go and do those smart money
Speaker 1: deals too, where they respect you enough to pay you
Speaker 1: for what you bring to the table. Yes, because Jordan
Speaker 1: Brand is like, look where Jordan's you. Having a sneaker
Speaker 1: makes you look good coming in and design one, my guy. RIGHTII.
Speaker 1: As a kid, you're growing up wearing your Jordan's. Yes,
Speaker 1: your kids can't eat no sneakers, be right? But they
Speaker 1: can't eat all some equity in Adidas, all right. Matt Barnes,
Speaker 1: which the mother of his children his ex a very
Speaker 1: happy birthday, Gloria go van Now, he said, hope this
Speaker 1: day is everything you hope for and more. Although things
Speaker 1: have been rocky, to say the least, the last four years,
Speaker 1: I hope that for the take of our two beautiful
Speaker 1: baby boys, we can come together and co parent them
Speaker 1: to the best of our abilities. No more games or
Speaker 1: bullish They need both of our love and support equally.
Speaker 1: We lead different lives now, but we're still on the
Speaker 1: same team. Anyways. Cheers to your day. Well, that seemed
Speaker 1: like a nice post until she responded. Gloria Govan wrote, LMAO,
Speaker 1: Matt Barnes, thank you, I think, and yes, one can
Speaker 1: only continue to pray that you take your own advice
Speaker 1: and learn peacefully coparent. But until then, I'll see you
Speaker 1: in court next week because you love a frivolous lawsuit.
Speaker 1: But hey, let's keep co parenting. And then she rolled
Speaker 1: her eyes. Well, Matt Burns responded to that, Well, stealing money,
Speaker 1: my social Security number and forging my signature to buy
Speaker 1: your parents' nightclub and house is pretty serious. But hey,
Speaker 1: I tried see you in court. Don't y'all hate seeing
Speaker 1: this type of self play out in the public though,
Speaker 1: I absolutely do, because I didn't know none of that,
Speaker 1: And they're they're only doing that for their followers in
Speaker 1: their audience, because both for him already know what it is.
Speaker 1: So you're just doing that to put her on blast,
Speaker 1: and she's just doing that to put him on blast.
Speaker 1: Like I don't have to play out in the public. Well,
Speaker 1: let's started out out with him really wishing her a
Speaker 1: happy birthday, and then it just really went with nasty
Speaker 1: from the Well, somebody got to pull back when you
Speaker 1: see somebody being petty, when you see somebody going low,
Speaker 1: you don't always got to take it to the floor
Speaker 1: with him. Sometimes. I don't get me wrong, I love
Speaker 1: taking it to the floor, but sometimes you do have
Speaker 1: to go high when they go low. All right, now,
Speaker 1: this is heartbreaking. Tisha Campbell filed for a divorce from
Speaker 1: Dwayne Martin. What happened? They together for twenty two years
Speaker 1: married and thirty years together. So after twenty seven years
Speaker 1: of being together and two amazing children, it pains me
Speaker 1: to announce that I filed for divorce. It's an emotional time,
Speaker 1: and I graciously asked for privacy for me, our children,
Speaker 1: and the rest of our family. That's crazy, man. Dwayne
Speaker 1: and Tisha are two very good people. I had the
Speaker 1: pleasure of going to their their club in La at
Speaker 1: one time, and I club a restaurant. It's a restaurant.
Speaker 1: It's a restaurant, slash lounge. It's a restaurant slash lungs.
Speaker 1: I can't why can't I not remember the name of
Speaker 1: it right now? Then lounge? Then yeah, then la and
Speaker 1: I kicked with both of them, and they were both
Speaker 1: really good people. So that's that's sad to hear man. Well,
Speaker 1: Gene is back with Martin, so you know what it is?
Speaker 1: All right? Kylie Jenner, this tweet that she sent out
Speaker 1: actually might have costs Snapchat a huge loss. Their shares
Speaker 1: actually dropped by as much as seven point two percent,
Speaker 1: which is equals one point three billion dollars. She tweeted out,
Speaker 1: so does anyone else not open Snapchat anymore? Or is
Speaker 1: it just me? This is so sad? And then right
Speaker 1: after that, bang, well, it was also the Snapchat update
Speaker 1: that they did that nobody liked. What was the update?
Speaker 1: Because I've been off Snapchat. I'm not sure because people
Speaker 1: complained no, it was no, it was some update, or
Speaker 1: maybe they did put it back. I don't. I just
Speaker 1: know it was some update everybody was complaining about. And
Speaker 1: then I guess Kylie said that. But I've been off Snapshot.
Speaker 1: I've been deleted that off my phone. You I got
Speaker 1: that kind of time. Why you are you on Snapchat
Speaker 1: when you got the Instagram live thing, the Instagram story
Speaker 1: to do the same thing? Now I got time follow
Speaker 1: them devices all right. Well, Quincy Jones has issued an
Speaker 1: apology for his recent interview that he did where he

Speaker 1: he now has said this. A couple of weekends ago,
Speaker 1: my six daughters, who I'm beyond proud of, took me

Speaker 1: all of you, and I thank you, Sorr. I encourage

Speaker 1: as a bowl legged man, you might have slept a
Speaker 1: mall and Brando too, well, these people do still have families,
Speaker 1: and families feelings can get hurt by some of these
Speaker 1: things that he said. So why were just breathing path
Speaker 1: the fact that he said he's an eighty five year
Speaker 1: old bold legged man. Why are he's still shooting it?
Speaker 1: All right? Like that's the thirst trap? Like I'm bow legged,
Speaker 1: bow legged man. All right, Well I'm angela yee And
Speaker 1: that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Nat.
Speaker 1: When we come back, Monique, we're gonnakick it with Monique.
Speaker 1: She came through yesterday and she taped it on her
Speaker 1: periscope and she put some of it out. But we're
Speaker 1: gonna get the interview on right now, the whole interview.
Speaker 1: Monique is has received donkeya today a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: maybe a few weeks ago, and I don't think she's
Speaker 1: happy about that. Okay, we'll get into that when we
Speaker 1: come back. Keep a loot this to Breakfast Club. Good
Speaker 1: morning morning. Everybody is DJ N v Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club now, you guys
Speaker 1: all No, Monique stopped by the Breakfast Club yesterday and
Speaker 1: we're getting it on today. So we're gonna play that
Speaker 1: for you special guests in the building, Miss Monique. Good morning,
Speaker 1: good morning morning, good morning, good morning. When Monique walked in,
Speaker 1: I gave a hug. I wanted her to know it's
Speaker 1: all love. Yes, he did, my lofe. We just here
Speaker 1: to have a conversation. That's all we're doing. Now, what's
Speaker 1: going on today? Mis Morningue. A while ago, I had
Speaker 1: to come out and I spoke in reference to Netflix
Speaker 1: that we had to boy you know, I was asking
Speaker 1: folks to stand with us as we boycott Netflix for
Speaker 1: Jenda bias and color buy it correct, and we were
Speaker 1: fighting for equality. And then I found out that I
Speaker 1: had become Donkey of the day, yes by Leonard, and
Speaker 1: I gotta call you by your name, baby, because okay, okay, baby,
Speaker 1: he's getting real special Leonard. But we're gonna And then
Speaker 1: I was called Donkey of the Day, and it really
Speaker 1: caught me off guard because when I met this brother
Speaker 1: some years ago, and I met a young man that
Speaker 1: was full of humility and respect. And when I got
Speaker 1: on an elevator, he actually held the door. I remember
Speaker 1: like it was yesterday, and I said, oh, baby, thank you,
Speaker 1: and he was just like that, yes, ma'am, and miss Monique,
Speaker 1: is a pleasure to meet you. And we had a
Speaker 1: very beautiful exchange. And I said to that brother, tell
Speaker 1: your mama that she raised you right, and I said
Speaker 1: it was my mama and my grandma, yes, ma'am. So
Speaker 1: I felt like this was as still as a beautiful
Speaker 1: young brother making his way, but full of humility and respect.
Speaker 1: Two we fast forward and I become Donkey of the Day.
Speaker 1: So I didn't want to have it to be here say.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to have anybody exchange words that I
Speaker 1: may have said to him. So my husband I wanted
Speaker 1: to come on so we could understand how I got
Speaker 1: titled Donkey of the Day. Did you give a dog
Speaker 1: kid to day? Charlemagne? Well, I think it was due
Speaker 1: to the whole Netflix situation. You know, when I heard
Speaker 1: you say that, you know you wanted us to boycott
Speaker 1: because of racial and gender biased but then you went
Speaker 1: on to you know, mentioned two brothers and a woman,
Speaker 1: so I said maybe she should be more specific and
Speaker 1: say black woman gender biased. But then also just from
Speaker 1: a business aspect, I wanted to know why did you
Speaker 1: feel like, you know you should have gotten whatever Chris
Speaker 1: Rock got, whatever Day Chappelle got, or whatever Amy Schumer got,
Speaker 1: because I feel like this is a what are you
Speaker 1: doing for me right now? Type of shed say what
Speaker 1: they got? She said she should have got more than
Speaker 1: she was offered, and then Charlemagne you brought up an
Speaker 1: old Netflix special as well, but I was later on,
Speaker 1: but my point was like, this is a what are
Speaker 1: you doing for me right now? Kind of interest. We
Speaker 1: all know Monique as a legend, but we also know
Speaker 1: that those things, those deals that Netflix had given out
Speaker 1: are based off recent stand up shows, recent shows, recent
Speaker 1: concert recent arena's, recent tours like that. But I just
Speaker 1: wanted to know why you felt like you deserved that much. Daddy,
Speaker 1: would you like to start or would you like from me?
Speaker 1: It didn't start with the offer for where the color
Speaker 1: bias and the just respect transpired. It started from when
Speaker 1: we had our initial conversation after Monique got her reviews
Speaker 1: from the Nights, in which Benjamin and Caitlin, who are
Speaker 1: representatives for Netflix, came out to see Monique and which
Speaker 1: on two different nights they saw her get a standing ovation,
Speaker 1: which subsequently gave them reviews of amazing and great show.
Speaker 1: So when we're in the midst of having the conversation
Speaker 1: prior to them giving the offer, we're in the midst
Speaker 1: and he says, well, I want to make it very
Speaker 1: clear that, you know, people speak about Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumann,
Speaker 1: what they got. I want to just make it clear,
Speaker 1: you know, so we can manage expectations that everybody doesn't
Speaker 1: get those type of deals. Well, when we're in the
Speaker 1: midst of that conversation, the phone disconnects. We never reconvened,
Speaker 1: he never gets us back on, and our attorney looks,
Speaker 1: calls me up and we speak and we're like, well,
Speaker 1: that was strange. Are we going to get back on
Speaker 1: the phone or not, Because anybody who does business knows
Speaker 1: that this is the key time in which to build
Speaker 1: the value of your client. Then we came back with
Speaker 1: an offer that they allegedly had sent over that our
Speaker 1: attorney and I had never received, and then on that
Speaker 1: it was a certain time limit in which we were
Speaker 1: supposed to respond, well, we had passed the time limit
Speaker 1: because we never received it. When our attorney had asked
Speaker 1: them to please resend the offer that they had allegedly sent,
Speaker 1: it was clear that it had never been sent in
Speaker 1: the first place. That to the second red flag when
Speaker 1: we get on the phone to discuss the offer that
Speaker 1: they had then finally sent over. Initially they didn't want
Speaker 1: to have the conversation until I expressed to them it
Speaker 1: is very ironic that the call we had was disconnected.
Speaker 1: We never reconvened. You became evasive. You can't get on
Speaker 1: the phone. Now I have to express what it's feeling like,
Speaker 1: which is gender biased, color biased. And there's also an
Speaker 1: issue that we didn't discuss that's in there as well.
Speaker 1: So those three things are what led to it, in
Speaker 1: conjunction with the fact that the very items that he
Speaker 1: said did not translate for Monique, which were her resume,
Speaker 1: what she's done in terms of movies. It didn't translate,
Speaker 1: but he said those were the things that translated for
Speaker 1: Amy Schumer. So why does Amy's resume work and Monique
Speaker 1: does not? And they could not explain that. And if
Speaker 1: he just joining us, that's Sydney that's Monique's managing husband
Speaker 1: if he just joining us, so you know the voices. Well,
Speaker 1: for I don't think Amy Schuman is funny, that's number one.
Speaker 1: But she did sell out fifty arenas around the world,
Speaker 1: including MSG and HBO wanted her as well, so she
Speaker 1: created a bidding war based on those stats. So I
Speaker 1: assume that's the reason her number was at that place. Well,
Speaker 1: I want to address something because you said I assume,
Speaker 1: and then you also said Monique is a legend. That's
Speaker 1: what you said, absolutely, right, And then when Robbie Prole
Speaker 1: and Netflix also says Monique is a legend, correct, absolutely,
Speaker 1: And you believe that Chris Rock is a legend as
Speaker 1: I do as well, Yes, and you would say Dave
Speaker 1: Chappelle is a legend, right absolutely. What makes me a
Speaker 1: different legend from Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock, Well when
Speaker 1: it comes to those that Netflix, specially the fact that
Speaker 1: they've shows. Prior to signing his Netflix deal, Chris Rock
Speaker 1: was on tour with the Total Blackout Tour, selling our
Speaker 1: shows arenas around the world before they did it, and
Speaker 1: they learned him away from HBO. I understand what y'all
Speaker 1: are coming to the table. With when I came to
Speaker 1: the table and I said, guys, and I said it humbly.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna decorate a comedian a line. And I said
Speaker 1: that humbly. And then people, some people said, oh, Monique
Speaker 1: is crazy till it was proven, till everybody actually saw
Speaker 1: the numbers and said, well, I guess she's right about that.
Speaker 1: And when you say this is a what have you
Speaker 1: done for me lately? The question is how much more
Speaker 1: do I have to do? Brother? Because when you do
Speaker 1: a film called Almost Christmas, and that film has a
Speaker 1: seventeen million dollars a budget, but it makes forty five
Speaker 1: million dollars. And then my sister Amy Schuman does a
Speaker 1: film called Snatched, and that film makes forty five million dollars,
Speaker 1: but it has a budget of forty two million dollars.
Speaker 1: Now what's the profit on that? I'm asking the question.
Speaker 1: You made a lot more profit than Amy. It was
Speaker 1: actually twenty five million dollar profit. But that movie Amy
Speaker 1: did her Netflix deal before Snatched, No, he said. Robbie
Speaker 1: Paul said that was what made him also give it
Speaker 1: a deal because of the big movie that she had
Speaker 1: coming out, right, And that's where we had to check, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: coming out that was so, but she did the Netflix
Speaker 1: deal before that movie came out. Well, we actually talked
Speaker 1: to the vice president of Netflix, Leonard Lenard, And what
Speaker 1: happens is when you're basing off of what you're assuming
Speaker 1: and then you give me a title of Donkey of
Speaker 1: the Day. Is your mother still alive? Yes? Man? And
Speaker 1: you're from what city in South Carolina? South Carolina? Monst Corner?
Speaker 1: And if I was to call your mother your grand mother,
Speaker 1: could they tell me stories of inequality that they had
Speaker 1: to deal with? Absolutely? So, would your mother be a donkey? No?
Speaker 1: Would your grandmother be a donkey? No? I need you
Speaker 1: to explain how you gave me the title, because you're
Speaker 1: not explaining it. You're going off of what I assume.
Speaker 1: But because you're on that microphone. And when we open
Speaker 1: up these microphones, we know just how powerful our voices
Speaker 1: can be, don't we, Angela, Yes, we do, and we
Speaker 1: know that what we say can become law, correct Lanard, Absolutely,
Speaker 1: So when we do that, we must then explain it
Speaker 1: to our community because we know how poisonous it can
Speaker 1: be when we put things out, but we can't back
Speaker 1: it up. We just say it. We have more with
Speaker 1: Monique when we come back, we got to talk more
Speaker 1: Netflix and negotiations, and it gets more awkward with her
Speaker 1: and Charlomagne's give a lot to the Breakfast Club. The Morning,
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning, everybody is dj N v Angela Yee,
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the God, We all the breakfast Club. Monique is here, Sa.
Speaker 1: I think everything you're saying about racial biases absolutely correct.
Speaker 1: Gender bias is absolutely correct. We know that the black
Speaker 1: woman is unappreciated and undervalue and a lot of different industries.
Speaker 1: But I think that when it comes to this Netflix situation,
Speaker 1: it's very specific. I think it's more of an individual
Speaker 1: thing than it is a collective problem, Like can you
Speaker 1: can you can you can? You honestly ask you? Is
Speaker 1: this can you say? If it's an individual problem, how
Speaker 1: comes that there are no individuals of color who happen
Speaker 1: to be ce male comedians that have had the multiple
Speaker 1: million dollar pay days with Netflix. Because what happens with
Speaker 1: the black community it's what have you done lately? But
Speaker 1: when you are a white person in this industry, it's
Speaker 1: you're only as good as your last project. Well, I
Speaker 1: thought it was drawing the amount of people that will
Speaker 1: watch special, do you think this is specific to comedians,
Speaker 1: because I do know they've given out multimillion dollar deals
Speaker 1: to EBA, Dubna, Shonda Rhymes. So you think it's specific
Speaker 1: to the comedy industry, Well, I'll let you answer it.
Speaker 1: What black female comedian got the multi million dollars deal?
Speaker 1: But don't you think it's coming? I'm sure, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: I'm sure Tiffany Hattrish will be presented with something if
Speaker 1: she hasn't already. Well, but we got to speak about
Speaker 1: the sisters that's done it. See when Wanda Sykes is
Speaker 1: number one hundred on Comedy Central's Top Comedians Ever, number seventy,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, daddy, number seventy on the top one hundred ever.
Speaker 1: But they offered her two fifty. So what do you
Speaker 1: say to that? Let Oh, you know, I actually asked
Speaker 1: about that. I spoke to somebody on Netflix and they
Speaker 1: offered that deal to Wander Sikes before this guy that
Speaker 1: does these stand up deals even got into position. They
Speaker 1: offered this deal to her some years ago. Does it
Speaker 1: seem strange that you always have an answer when I'll
Speaker 1: finish line keeps getting moved when I say, name me
Speaker 1: one black female comedian that's got the million dollar payday.
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to hear the answer, right, So you think
Speaker 1: it's specific to comedians because I don't. I don't know
Speaker 1: on Netflix any that. But I can't say and history
Speaker 1: name her, well, I would ask what what what black
Speaker 1: female comedian has sold out fifty arenas around the World's
Speaker 1: there's four beautiful black female comedians that we just got
Speaker 1: a Legends award. Her name is Samore, the name is Adel,
Speaker 1: her name is Miss Laura, her name is Monique. And
Speaker 1: when the Queens of Comedy was on tour, see we
Speaker 1: made history. And I don't know if you've done your homework,
Speaker 1: because we were the only female group, black, white, Latin
Speaker 1: Asian to sell out consecutively around this country. But you'll
Speaker 1: disregard that because you'll say, well, what did you do yesterday?
Speaker 1: So you can't take it away. But if I'm doing
Speaker 1: business and I'm basing it off doing it, deal with
Speaker 1: somebody who did this last year, as opposed to doing
Speaker 1: it fifteen years ago, twenty years ago, whenever it was.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it make more things to do with the person
Speaker 1: who did it just a couple of years ago. If
Speaker 1: you're doing business and you say, what's Monique's resume. Now
Speaker 1: you're the businessman and you're looking at that resume and
Speaker 1: everything on that resume says number one, Everything on that
Speaker 1: resume says sell out. Now all of a sudden, is
Speaker 1: it going to change? Businessman? If I was saying, if
Speaker 1: I had to sign Kobe Bryant today, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: give Kobe Brant a hundred million dollars contract, well, you're right,
Speaker 1: but his resume is amazing. The difference between Kobe Bryant
Speaker 1: today and Monique today is when you're thirty six in
Speaker 1: the game of basketball, you don't lost your step. When
Speaker 1: you are fifty years old in the game of comedy,
Speaker 1: your season and if she had to come, if they
Speaker 1: had to come to Netflix to your point, because you
Speaker 1: make a very good point, and Monique had a stumble
Speaker 1: like a forty year old or a thirty eight year
Speaker 1: old Kobe Bryant who's got a rupture to chilles heel
Speaker 1: that you got to bounce back from, then it would
Speaker 1: make sense. But if he dropped fifty and still was
Speaker 1: dropping buckets, what would you say because they watched two
Speaker 1: standing ovations and two sold out clubs. You're absolutely right,
Speaker 1: Brothers City. Let me at this. Why not put together
Speaker 1: a theater, our arena tour and sell that out and
Speaker 1: then come back to the table. I'll table. It doesn't
Speaker 1: have to go to see. My whole thing is is
Speaker 1: that's something we were talking about, the money offered, and
Speaker 1: my whole thing is as a businessman, being a legend
Speaker 1: and all that doesn't necessarily matter. It's what's what's who
Speaker 1: the people I want to see. You could be a
Speaker 1: legend and people love you, but if you can't attract
Speaker 1: the people to come to the place to see you
Speaker 1: or to come to Netflix to watch you, it doesn't
Speaker 1: mean the question almost Christmas, would you say that was
Speaker 1: a hit movie? Definitely a hit movie. Would you say
Speaker 1: Bessie was a hit? Yes? Would you say Precious Precious
Speaker 1: was a hit? Absolutely? So the question is so, Monique,
Speaker 1: you didn't do nothing in twenty seventeen that was on
Speaker 1: TV that we could see, So that means you're irrelevant.
Speaker 1: I don't think anything. What happens is when someone said
Speaker 1: to me, Monique, doesn't become disheartening. When it's your folks,
Speaker 1: it's understandable. I don't take a sense it's understandable and
Speaker 1: not explain why when I have to sit here and
Speaker 1: not the fin but explain to people that look like me. Well,
Speaker 1: when did I become irrelevant? I said, was a movie
Speaker 1: I'll call Almost Christmas? What in twenty sixteen? This is
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. So then all of a sudden, Oh, we
Speaker 1: don't know if people are gonna show up and show out. Now,
Speaker 1: when I did a show called The Bernie and Sid Show,
Speaker 1: we'll show you know those brothers, two white brothers. And
Speaker 1: when I walked in there, Lanard, I walked in with
Speaker 1: a preconceiving ocean that I was gonna have to defend
Speaker 1: myself because one is a strong Trump supporter and the
Speaker 1: other is a Democrat. But I'm thinking I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: to walk in and defend myself with these white brothers.
Speaker 1: After five minutes of us talking, they shut their showdown
Speaker 1: and they said, Monique, we're gonna call this what this is.
Speaker 1: This is nothing but racism, and we can't sit back
Speaker 1: and allow it and watch it happen. So no, we're
Speaker 1: gonna tell our listeners two boycott Netflix until they get
Speaker 1: it right, because you are a legend and we have
Speaker 1: to honor and respect you. Now those are my white brothers.
Speaker 1: Then I come to my folks, and I have to
Speaker 1: be donkey of the day, which you still haven't explained, Leonard,
Speaker 1: And you're gonna have to because when you make those
Speaker 1: type of statements about your system to our community, what
Speaker 1: you're saying to the community is as black women, you're devalued.
Speaker 1: And if you stand up and you make a stand
Speaker 1: and you say we need equality and we have to
Speaker 1: say what's right and what's fair, and then a brother
Speaker 1: that looks like me from South Carolina says, you're the
Speaker 1: donkey of the day. You have to explain that to
Speaker 1: our community. I've explained it. I said that. I think
Speaker 1: that you're using racial and gender bias with your actual
Speaker 1: real issues. The struggle that the black women are going
Speaker 1: through in many industries is a real issue, but you're
Speaker 1: using it to focus on something that you're dealing with individually.
Speaker 1: Did you just see Viola Davis come out and say
Speaker 1: pay her equally? Did you just hear that? Absolutely? So
Speaker 1: when you have us saying the same thing, we're saying
Speaker 1: pay us equally, you're saying, oh, Monique, this is an
Speaker 1: isolated situation. Well, then what that says is you don't
Speaker 1: know the history of this business that you're in and
Speaker 1: you sit behind this microphe phone and you try to
Speaker 1: be the guru of black culture. I'm gonna need you
Speaker 1: to know the history of us before you begin to
Speaker 1: label us. And once you know the history, you know.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying anything unique, brother, I just unders understand
Speaker 1: how you can justify making thirty million dollars twenty eighteen
Speaker 1: for a standard special. When you say justify thirteen millions,
Speaker 1: did you get a chance to read what the offer was?
Speaker 1: I did read some of it, yes, well all of it.
Speaker 1: The kids we got to read all of it. Because
Speaker 1: what Chris Rock said a long time ago, if you
Speaker 1: want to hire something from a black person, put it
Speaker 1: in a book. This is not about comparing the definitive
Speaker 1: numbers as to what Amy got and what Dave and
Speaker 1: them got, because it's married to what you just communicated.
Speaker 1: But when you ask a comedian to take a half
Speaker 1: million dollars for two years, you can't say any jokes.
Speaker 1: They don't want you to do stand up for two years,
Speaker 1: and essentially they want you to take half a million
Speaker 1: dollars and lose out on two million dollars of work
Speaker 1: that you would have made on the road. Anyway, That
Speaker 1: right there. It doesn't make sense. Hi, we have more
Speaker 1: with Monique where we come back, don't move. It's the
Speaker 1: breakfast Clucal Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy we are the breakfast club. Monique is in
Speaker 1: the building, charlomagnet deal. He just asks did we make
Speaker 1: a counter offer? And that's a very important question that
Speaker 1: Davis into the counter offer and said they won't. They
Speaker 1: regretfully won't be able to do this deal. Hopefully you
Speaker 1: guys could work together in the future, and that's the
Speaker 1: point that we have to make to you, Lenard. But
Speaker 1: in addition to that, my love, and this is in
Speaker 1: conjunction with Roland Martin and John Mary putting out a
Speaker 1: rumor that Monique was offered three million dollars and then
Speaker 1: didn't have the decency as journalists to come back and
Speaker 1: say we apologize for the misinformation. Because if you notice,
Speaker 1: Monique keep Monique keeps producing receipts, and as crazy as
Speaker 1: this sounds, this is a bigger picture than just Netflix,
Speaker 1: because what has happened was you've heard about Lee Daniels
Speaker 1: coming out speaking in reference to how difficult Monique was,
Speaker 1: and the whole nine. We live in a culture in
Speaker 1: which the ladies who are going up in the room
Speaker 1: saying hashtag me too, and people are saying, well, you know,
Speaker 1: if you're going up in the room at two o'clock
Speaker 1: in the morning, you know you're about to get screwed,
Speaker 1: So why do you go up there and do it?
Speaker 1: But what happens is they'll say to Monique, why didn't
Speaker 1: you go promote a movie for Lionsgate for free? Because
Speaker 1: you know what they'll do to you. So now you're
Speaker 1: in the damned if you do, damned if you don't situation.
Speaker 1: Because the women who go up in the room, the
Speaker 1: reason why they go up in the room, they know
Speaker 1: they're going to get screwed when they go up in
Speaker 1: the room. They just don't know how bad they're gonna
Speaker 1: get screwed. If they don't go up in the room,
Speaker 1: what happens off of them. This is why, again, Lenard,
Speaker 1: you've got to be careful with your words, because you
Speaker 1: called your sister donkey of the day, but you didn't
Speaker 1: do your research, and you pulled that poison out into
Speaker 1: our community. Was out fully doing your research, and now
Speaker 1: as we sit here, you have to almost backtrack your
Speaker 1: words well, when you ask a question, did you counter offer?
Speaker 1: We put all of it out there. We put the
Speaker 1: information out there, so you were so ready to do
Speaker 1: good readio that you didn't do your homework. And when
Speaker 1: you have a conversation, you know a brother named gerl
Speaker 1: Kelly about would you consider him your friend? Absolutely? See,
Speaker 1: I was on the road with Gerl Kelly two weeks ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: called Monique. I talked to uh Charlemagne and he said, man,
Speaker 1: you know I love Monique. I wasn't doing nothing but
Speaker 1: making ready of I didn't see it you have with
Speaker 1: geral Kelly, because what again, when you say, did your
Speaker 1: counter offer? See, we did, and they said there was
Speaker 1: no negotiations. You take it to leave it. We didn't
Speaker 1: actually counter offer. What they said in the midst of
Speaker 1: our conversation, you've given us something to chew on. We're
Speaker 1: going to come back and reflect on it. And we said,
Speaker 1: and I said to them, trying to give them out,
Speaker 1: are you sure, because here's the thing. We don't want
Speaker 1: to waste your time if if it's not real. However,
Speaker 1: if it's real and we can get something done, of
Speaker 1: course we would love to do business with you. So
Speaker 1: y'all really didn't make a counter offer. No, so what
Speaker 1: we're saying it was negotiable. They were going to go
Speaker 1: back to reflect on what we had discussed, and when
Speaker 1: they came back, they said that we are based upon
Speaker 1: our discussion, we decided not to make a counter offer
Speaker 1: in reference to what it is that you're speaking in
Speaker 1: reference to hopefully we can do business in the future
Speaker 1: and so forth. Because what they were trying to emphasize
Speaker 1: to us that a half a million dollars was a
Speaker 1: strong enough number, and other people that they considered equal
Speaker 1: to Monique, which they did not name, they said, they've
Speaker 1: taken that number. If you notice you're having a conversation
Speaker 1: with Monique, why is it that Netflix won't have a
Speaker 1: conversation with people because they can bank on people like Charlemagne.
Speaker 1: They can bank on our brothers and sisters like Charlemagne
Speaker 1: that will say we'll fight them. We'll fight them for you,
Speaker 1: for you don't have to fight us. I'm still trying
Speaker 1: to get you in Brothers City to justify why you
Speaker 1: think you deserved thirteen million dollars. There bidding war between platforms.
Speaker 1: When you say, when you say justify, I'm gonna put
Speaker 1: my resume on the table. That's all I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: to do is I'm gonna put it on the table
Speaker 1: when you say justify it, I'm gonna lay it out
Speaker 1: on the table for you to look at it. Do
Speaker 1: you do the numbers and ticket sales that Chris Rock
Speaker 1: does that, Dave Chappelle does that, emshom with us. It's
Speaker 1: given the opportunities. Why don't you answer the question? See,
Speaker 1: it's given those opportunities. You're answering the question for yourself.
Speaker 1: We're not given the same opportunities. Brother, But if you
Speaker 1: do your why can't you in Sydney Garden book arena toys?
Speaker 1: Do they go out and book their tours or do
Speaker 1: promoters book? Then? See what we're gonna do right now
Speaker 1: is and what I'm not gonna do with you now?
Speaker 1: You want to play a tist protech and what you're
Speaker 1: saying is a black woman's resume don't matter. I'm not
Speaker 1: saying that trying to weaponize things such two hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars and she's considered one of the best,
Speaker 1: or that was years ago and they said that was
Speaker 1: they would never do that now. And I literally heard
Speaker 1: this like a few weeks ago. So you did talk
Speaker 1: about the situation with Lee Daniels, and you talked about
Speaker 1: people saying that. Now we've read some things also because
Speaker 1: you're here and our cousins, but left for you to
Speaker 1: speak on this. So there are people that say that
Speaker 1: you didn't treat people well, yes, and that they've had
Speaker 1: issues working with you and that you're difficult. Yes. So
Speaker 1: let's address some of that. Because Roland Martin brought it
Speaker 1: up when you guys spoke on Twitter. Yes, and he
Speaker 1: talked about the Ebony magazine cover shoe that you did
Speaker 1: with Chris Rock and Steve Harvey. Yes, and he said
Speaker 1: that it was a nightmare because of you. What happened
Speaker 1: at that shoot? Well, what happened if that shoot was
Speaker 1: a check was thrown at one of our assistants, and
Speaker 1: you don't throw anything at anyone. And I had a
Speaker 1: problem with that. See, they won't fill you in on
Speaker 1: all that happened. So you had to let that person
Speaker 1: know that's not how you do business and that's unacceptable.
Speaker 1: So I have no problem speaking on it. When they
Speaker 1: said I mistreated people on almost Christmas, well we have
Speaker 1: twenty interviews because we knew that they would say something
Speaker 1: like that with the people that worked in the background professionals,
Speaker 1: the lighting guys, the camera guys, where they all said
Speaker 1: our experience with Monique was stella. What happens is you
Speaker 1: hear the bullies speak out, but then the bullies run
Speaker 1: because when those videos did come out, the Roland Martin
Speaker 1: come back. When the videos did come out, just with
Speaker 1: the three little videos, you heard nothing else, did you.
Speaker 1: Let's backchack a little bit because Will Packer, Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: so Will Packer and m Roland Martin. And you know
Speaker 1: a lot of people have spoken out that have dealt
Speaker 1: with you personally and said these things. But I haven't
Speaker 1: really heard anybody say anything negative about Will Packer, about
Speaker 1: working with Lee Daniels, and I haven't heard them say
Speaker 1: anything negative about some of the people that they've worked it.
Speaker 1: So why is it? Let me I can answer that.
Speaker 1: That's a great question. You know the guy Harvey Weinstein,
Speaker 1: and he was able to do that for how many years? Decades?
Speaker 1: And why do you think that was Well, they were
Speaker 1: working with a lot of people who felt like their
Speaker 1: career would be in jeopardy if somebody spoke out. Do
Speaker 1: you think this is a unique situation? Do you think
Speaker 1: that people are fearful to speak out when they're mistreated.
Speaker 1: Is it bestween mistreatment and sexual assault? Money? We we can't.
Speaker 1: We can't put out false equivalences about people. I understand
Speaker 1: what you're What is it between mistreatment and sexual me?
Speaker 1: I guess levels to mistreatment? You're You're absolutely right. Mistreatment
Speaker 1: is mistreatment, and you can't paint Will the same that's
Speaker 1: what the same person. Let me say this because based
Speaker 1: upon the information that you had, you feel comfortable with it.
Speaker 1: Because this is the world we live in. If you
Speaker 1: keep hearing it, it seems as if it's true. Asked
Speaker 1: David Talbert, who was the director of Almost Christmas, if
Speaker 1: Monique had to stop because Will Packer was given directions
Speaker 1: over the director and he's the producer, and Monique said
Speaker 1: stop for a moment, please. What we're not going to
Speaker 1: do is disrespect to this black director, because if he
Speaker 1: was a white director, you as the producer, would not
Speaker 1: give direction over him. And to his credit, at that moment,
Speaker 1: he seemed to have got it and was embarrassed by
Speaker 1: what it was that he had done. And the reason
Speaker 1: she had some difficulty with one of the individuals who
Speaker 1: were the first ape or something like that she had
Speaker 1: walked into Monique's trailer while she was undressed without knocking.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you know, but there was
Speaker 1: a letter that Steve Harvey had written a while ago
Speaker 1: in reference to how people just walk into his room.
Speaker 1: What happens is she's the type of person that doesn't
Speaker 1: allow people to get disrespected. And she's not gonna have
Speaker 1: an issue with the people that are the hourly wage folks.
Speaker 1: It's typically the people who are the powerful one. She's
Speaker 1: not having no beef with nobody. There were people that
Speaker 1: were getting their fingers pointed in their face that happened
Speaker 1: to be black women by white men on the set
Speaker 1: of Precious and she said, I can't allow that to happen. Guy.
Speaker 1: So what happens is you are forgetting that this is
Speaker 1: a country that had slavery for hundreds of years. And
Speaker 1: when do we start realizing that we are so conditioned
Speaker 1: to normalize bad treatment. When white men are able to say, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: she's right, how does the black community not see it?
Speaker 1: We have more with Monique when we come back, don't move.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ n D Angela yee, Charlomagne, the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the breakfast club. We have Monique in the
Speaker 1: building still, Charlomagne, I want to know about this though.
Speaker 1: Have you received other offers from other screaming services? Let
Speaker 1: me say this because other than that helped with negotiations
Speaker 1: when you can come back ball being put over my head.
Speaker 1: The offers that come in from Netflix, they can come
Speaker 1: in low like that because they know you've been blackball.
Speaker 1: You know what the word is about you, So we
Speaker 1: assume that you're suffering and we can offer you whatever
Speaker 1: we want to offer you. So the offers have come
Speaker 1: in even lower than that. You had a Netflix special beforehand, though, right, well,
Speaker 1: I didn't have a Netflix special. What happened was the
Speaker 1: one and put it on there exactly. I didn't make
Speaker 1: any deal with Netflix. So those shows just happened to
Speaker 1: be on it, and they've been on there for a
Speaker 1: long time. So someone would say this woman is not
Speaker 1: bringing in anything, it's way, but we hold onto the content.
Speaker 1: They've been on there for a minute. So well, I'm
Speaker 1: assuming so we don't get a report on that. But
Speaker 1: as I sit here again and I sit between my
Speaker 1: sister WHOA, I know you deal with inequality. Angela. You're
Speaker 1: in the same business I'm in, but you'll look at
Speaker 1: me and you'll say, well, I need you to explain
Speaker 1: to me. They said you was a problem here and
Speaker 1: a problem there. We all know when you don't allow
Speaker 1: bullies to take place, and when you don't allow yourself
Speaker 1: to get bullied, don't you get labeled? Yes? But can
Speaker 1: I just for full disclosure please? There are definitely people
Speaker 1: that I know that I've worked with you on the
Speaker 1: Ebony shoot. Yes, and I've heard things where they've told
Speaker 1: me personally, people that were in the room save their names,
Speaker 1: and it's not like I told Lenard before, keep it
Speaker 1: on the playground. Well, okay, So I saw Alfred Edmond Jr.
Speaker 1: Who's the editor in chief a Black enterprise magazine. I
Speaker 1: saw that Amy Zuba Burnett, who was the editor in
Speaker 1: chief of Ebony at the time of that shoe, who
Speaker 1: was very excited to have you on the shoot. She
Speaker 1: left a comment because he posted something about you and
Speaker 1: the numbers and about your worth and how you are
Speaker 1: the most decorated comedian and she commented it was a
Speaker 1: nightmare working with her and I would never want to
Speaker 1: go through something like that. Again, I saw that comment
Speaker 1: is still on his page. Now. I would love to
Speaker 1: sit down and talk with that sister face to face
Speaker 1: so she can tell me about the nightmare. Because what
Speaker 1: they won't do is they won't fill it in. See
Speaker 1: they won't fill in. We would being arrogant and we
Speaker 1: wanted to treat that woman as if we were doing
Speaker 1: her a favor by putting her on the cover. As
Speaker 1: my husband told me years ago, we don't disrespect anyone,
Speaker 1: but we overrespect no one. And I want you to
Speaker 1: look at me. I'm a big fat black woman. Real talk,
Speaker 1: what big fat black woman has the stands up and
Speaker 1: says this is not fair because what the feeling is
Speaker 1: with some of our sisters and brothers. Monique, you should
Speaker 1: be grateful you just got invited to the party because
Speaker 1: of the way you look. So for anyone that says
Speaker 1: they ever had a problem with me, bring them to
Speaker 1: the table. Bring them to the table and let's have
Speaker 1: a conversation. But what you'll find is we'll speak about
Speaker 1: this woman when she can't see us. We'll make comments.
Speaker 1: But we're the type of people that say, let's have
Speaker 1: a conversation, and when you find out that they're wrong,
Speaker 1: will you then speak up loudly for me as you
Speaker 1: speak up for them. Absolutely, Let the Mornique and brother said,
Speaker 1: you want to ask you a question, Let's just talk numbers.
Speaker 1: If you put your numbers up against the Amy Schumer's
Speaker 1: the Chris Rocks to Dave Chappeldan, I'm talking about selling
Speaker 1: out arenas all over the world. How can you justify
Speaker 1: getting a huge fainting like that when you're saying that
Speaker 1: you're going to offer her one twenty six of what
Speaker 1: Amy Schumer got and you're referring to Monique as a legend,
Speaker 1: and you're seeing her performance and you see the people
Speaker 1: standing up for at the end of the show. Have
Speaker 1: you read the reviews to the Netflix special for Amy Schumer?
Speaker 1: I don't think Amy's money. You don't got it. You
Speaker 1: don't got Amy got me blocked on. This is the part, Daddy,
Speaker 1: and we gotta wrap up the show. But when we
Speaker 1: did sell out, then if the arenas around the world
Speaker 1: msg a few times HBO's pressure, that did great. And
Speaker 1: this was all in twenty Here's what brother Leonard is saying.
Speaker 1: Let this year another show comes and they become number
Speaker 1: one and not the Breakfast Club and then let a
Speaker 1: host come in here that's been doing it for maybe
Speaker 1: five years less than you, and then they get paid
Speaker 1: twenty six times more than you. Then you come back
Speaker 1: and have a conversation with us, because right, that's all
Speaker 1: because what happens is when you sit here and you say,
Speaker 1: make it make sense, well, we don't have to, because again,
Speaker 1: and if you do have to make it make sense,
Speaker 1: especially if you're calling on people too, we made things
Speaker 1: like we made it make the bias because we're saying,
Speaker 1: here's the resumes, guys, in conjunction with that. The only
Speaker 1: thing we're saying is if hypothetically speaking, it wasn't thirteen
Speaker 1: million Charla Mayne, we're saying, is how come there's not.
Speaker 1: They're saying to the community that it's not one black
Speaker 1: woman that is a veteran comedian out there the day
Speaker 1: that is worth a seventh figure number. So what would
Speaker 1: have been a respectable number from this Monique answering? Let me,
Speaker 1: let me give you a respectable number for Monique, something
Speaker 1: that would supersede what she would have made in two years,
Speaker 1: and at the very least which she would have made
Speaker 1: two years to be able to take to two years
Speaker 1: off that they're contractually asking her to do to not
Speaker 1: be able to tell jokes. You would not take a
Speaker 1: deal because they're gonna give you a lump summer cash
Speaker 1: that's going to castrate you out of three fourths of
Speaker 1: your income. Do you understand what I'm saying? So the
Speaker 1: deal didn't include the two years and didn't have that,
Speaker 1: you couldn't tell jokes if I would have taken a
Speaker 1: deal for five hundred thousand dollars and what position that
Speaker 1: the babies is coming out? No, the deal is foul.
Speaker 1: The deal is absolutely positively found. Nobody says the deal
Speaker 1: is right, but you know, and in Sydney, you're a businessman,
Speaker 1: Monique your businesswoman. Right, the deal is foul. I mean,
Speaker 1: let's be clear. But that's why you counter offing that
Speaker 1: they're hearing and based on what they know. They know
Speaker 1: Monique's reputation. As far as what people are rumored to say,
Speaker 1: it does matter. They know, they know that other networks
Speaker 1: are not necessarily giving her the money and giving her less.
Speaker 1: They know what it is. So why would I give
Speaker 1: as a business person obscene number when I know she
Speaker 1: can't get it anywhere else. It's foul, but it's business
Speaker 1: but if you're saying, Monique, it is foul, and you're
Speaker 1: all right. So if we know what's right and we
Speaker 1: know it's foul, then what do we do. We do
Speaker 1: it on our own. That's just like talking to Steve Harvey,
Speaker 1: and brother Steve Harvey says, MO, I know you're right,
Speaker 1: and I know you're not lying, but could you have
Speaker 1: done it another way? No, you know what's the suggestion?
Speaker 1: What's the other I you do the way we do it.
Speaker 1: We do do it on our own. But we still
Speaker 1: got to speak up. Like you say, Angela, well just
Speaker 1: go somewhere else. Do you know how long we've been
Speaker 1: going somewhere else. I think the problem started with you
Speaker 1: coming out comparing yourself to Chris Rock Dan Chapelle and why.
Speaker 1: And I think because because because there's no way that
Speaker 1: you can justify getting that amount of money that they've got.
Speaker 1: Now you have gotten more than five hundred thousand. Yes,
Speaker 1: and I've said that one. Well, here's what I'm saying. No,
Speaker 1: that's not what y'all know. What y'all were saying was
Speaker 1: y'all should have got the same amount. Let me, let me,
Speaker 1: let me get to that, let me answer that. Daddy,
Speaker 1: what I said was, if I'm considered a legend like
Speaker 1: my brothers, then why would I get what legends get?
Speaker 1: Because that is exactly what I said, because their resume
Speaker 1: recently just on paper. We're gonna listen, Leonard, We're gonna
Speaker 1: let you hold on to that. But what I will
Speaker 1: say to you is, and to all the black women
Speaker 1: and women of color that is listening, when you hear
Speaker 1: this brother's voice come over the air, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: apologize about what I'm getting ready to say. He does
Speaker 1: not have a value on black women and women of color.
Speaker 1: How can you say I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: why contradictory. I'm gonna tell you why I said it.
Speaker 1: Because what happens is when you leave a place called
Speaker 1: Monk Monk's Corner, South Carolina, and you come to a
Speaker 1: big city named New York, and then you change your
Speaker 1: name to Shaloman Morning. Well, when you were there, you
Speaker 1: become Shaloman the God. Now, I don't know if you
Speaker 1: took the same principles that your mama and your grandmamma
Speaker 1: gave you in Monk's Corner and you bought it to Manhattan,
Speaker 1: New York. Because the brother I did meet on that elevator.
Speaker 1: I mean a brother that was full of principle, and
Speaker 1: I meant a brother who would not call a sister
Speaker 1: a donkey of a day unless he knew all the
Speaker 1: information and he could back up his statements. But as
Speaker 1: we sit here and we did this interview, you begin
Speaker 1: to ask questions that you should have asked before you
Speaker 1: make the statement. So what question? But y'all really don't
Speaker 1: have any answer. I have not justified why you feel
Speaker 1: like you should have gotten that money, should have got
Speaker 1: that we're not. And here's the thing, brothers and sisters
Speaker 1: that get it the way that they get it, and
Speaker 1: we get it the way that we get it. And
Speaker 1: it's not an argument. I respect your decision. I respect
Speaker 1: your no because you're entitled to it. However, as we
Speaker 1: are entitled to ours. So what I am saying that
Speaker 1: the devalue you place on black women, And you say,
Speaker 1: how can I say that? Because out of your mouth
Speaker 1: you're saying there is no black female comedian that is
Speaker 1: worth that money, saying that hasn't been ill that if
Speaker 1: I go down the list of black female comedians and
Speaker 1: the work that those sisters have put in through the
Speaker 1: years that opened up doors so that people like you
Speaker 1: could sit where you sit. Her name is Marsha Warfield.
Speaker 1: Her name is there a dog. Her name is Mom's maybe,
Speaker 1: which she's no longer with us. That the list goes
Speaker 1: on and on and Miss Monique like it's a true
Speaker 1: Monique wrapping it at what are you going to do
Speaker 1: moving forward? As far as with this special, We're gonna
Speaker 1: keep on one pushing see the special is gonna happen,
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen, and we're gonna let y'all see it.
Speaker 1: But what we're gonna do with this situation right now
Speaker 1: called the fight for inequality, we're gonna keep standing and
Speaker 1: we're gonna hope the sisters like you would stand with
Speaker 1: us to say when it's inequality, we must speak up,
Speaker 1: and we must speak loudly because your daughters are coming. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: thank you for joining us, all right? That wiz Monique,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, again, she came through yesterday and we
Speaker 1: just got it on today. Donkey, today is up next.
Speaker 1: So let's open up the phone line. Charlemagne. Yes, So
Speaker 1: the question is eight on drip five eighty five, one
Speaker 1: oh five one do you feel Monique deserved Donkey of
Speaker 1: the Day. Yeah, Usually at far after the hour we
Speaker 1: do Donkey of to Day. But since Donkey of the
Speaker 1: Day has gotten under monique skin so much, and I've
Speaker 1: never had somebody push back on me for being Donkey
Speaker 1: Today like Monique has. I want to know, after hearing
Speaker 1: this interview and everything that we've been seeing, do you
Speaker 1: feel like she deserves Donkey Today for this Netflix situation?
Speaker 1: Once again, I agree with everything she's talking about when
Speaker 1: it comes to inequality and racial bias and gender bias,
Speaker 1: but I don't think that has anything to do with
Speaker 1: the fact that she's just not as hot as Dame Chapelle,
Speaker 1: Kriss Rock and Amy Schumann, and that's why she didn't
Speaker 1: get that pature right sway to Jerry eighty five eight
Speaker 1: five one oh five one, do you feel Monique should
Speaker 1: have got Donkey or the Day? Call us up now
Speaker 1: time you get the junky day you are, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: fatten all that around. They want this man to Stolten
Speaker 1: Blowers man. They're waiting for Charlemagne the Top and blows.
Speaker 1: She has to make a judgment who was gonna be
Speaker 1: on the Donkey of the Day. They chose you to
Speaker 1: breakfast a bitch, who's donkey of the day to day? Now?
Speaker 1: Usually we do donkey today right here? Yes, usually Donkey
Speaker 1: of to day is here. But since Monique mentioned donkey
Speaker 1: of today seventy six times in a one hour span,
Speaker 1: and she's very upset about being dunkey today, very upset
Speaker 1: after hearing the interview, And you know, I just want
Speaker 1: to know that people think she deserved to get donkey today.
Speaker 1: All right, that's all I want to talk to the
Speaker 1: people one on five one. Hello, who's this? This is Kaylin.
Speaker 1: Hey Caleb. You think Monique deserved donkey today? Yes, I
Speaker 1: absolutely think she deserved dunk here today. Like seeing like this,
Speaker 1: nsy say you're selling a pair of shoes for two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars and the person you're selling the shoes too
Speaker 1: for two hundred dollars don't necessarily think they worked two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars. They think they may be worth a hundred.
Speaker 1: Can you get mad at that person because they want
Speaker 1: to buy for a hundred or were you? The best
Speaker 1: thing to do is gonna say that shoes to another person,
Speaker 1: another person on the street, see how much you can
Speaker 1: get for him. You can't get mad at Netflix because
Speaker 1: they don't want to offer what you think you like.
Speaker 1: Netflix doesn't doesn't old Monique. That's the thing, you know.
Speaker 1: The funny thing is I said the same thing. I said.
Speaker 1: Netflix is a business. And if I'm the owner of
Speaker 1: Netflix and I know Monique is has rumored that she's
Speaker 1: hard to work with, that nobody else wants to give
Speaker 1: her a deal. I'm not gonna offer a lot of
Speaker 1: money either. She has nowhere else to go. That's business.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you something else about one on one.
Speaker 1: What's that when presented with a deal, if you don't
Speaker 1: like the offer, counter offer, and after every first deal,
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have to counter offer. There's no first
Speaker 1: deal that you're taken. You love it, and she didn't
Speaker 1: even try to offer. I think in general, and let
Speaker 1: people know that companies always offer you a low bone
Speaker 1: number because they do expect you to come back with
Speaker 1: the counter offer. Well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this Good morning, Danielle, Good morning Danielle. Did Monique
Speaker 1: deserve Dark Kid to day when she got it? Why?
Speaker 1: How many more years do they gotta work? Thirty forty
Speaker 1: years in the game and do still making a provid
Speaker 1: like they came in a game yesterday. This is our legends.
Speaker 1: We don't go away, Richard Pie like that. If Richer
Speaker 1: Paride would have got an offer, a five hundred thousand
Speaker 1: give away, two years of your work, do you live
Speaker 1: in having augh afflets would have had to pay. And
Speaker 1: the fact that they saying you saying, Joe thof Enva,
Speaker 1: that nobody else has given it towards that shows that
Speaker 1: she's not only seeing black balls but being exercide. That
Speaker 1: means who else are they doing it? That's quietly sitting
Speaker 1: by doing it themselves. That's not fair. That's not fair.
Speaker 1: So you think more than black men, and the black
Speaker 1: men want us to stands out and empower black people
Speaker 1: with them, they got to stand behind their black women
Speaker 1: when the black women are being exercised too. And there's
Speaker 1: more people in this case, Oprah and Opra putting pop
Speaker 1: going for select them generosity exist and we think he's
Speaker 1: doing our own like that nothing hip hop not hip
Speaker 1: hop hip hop? Yeah right, listen, man um, this is
Speaker 1: the thing. No disrespect to none of the legends, but
Speaker 1: even some of these legends will tell you they know
Speaker 1: they can't get the pay days that some of these
Speaker 1: new people get. But we keep talking about, uh, these
Speaker 1: pay days, Like Chris Rock hasn't been in the game
Speaker 1: for over twenty plus years. Dave Chappelle hasn't been in
Speaker 1: the game over twenty plus years. You know why even
Speaker 1: Chris got these big pay days because they're still hot
Speaker 1: right now. Because there's still out here selling out arenas.
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle did fifteen hundred shows before he did his
Speaker 1: Netflix deal and was selling out Radio City Music called
Speaker 1: Chris rockets all over the world selling out arenas. Please
Speaker 1: tell me when the last time you see more nice
Speaker 1: in arena. It's like you said, it's drawing. Can sell
Speaker 1: out Madison Square Garden? I don't know if Monie Ken
Speaker 1: and said she said it was hip hop. Big Daddy Kane,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring it to hip hop is a legend.
Speaker 1: One of the reasons why I love hip hop so much.
Speaker 1: Could he sell out Madison Square Garden right now by himself?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. And jay Z Ken and jay
Speaker 1: Z would get that money to do it, or a
Speaker 1: new artist like lutu ouzi Vert probably can. That's why
Speaker 1: they would give him the money. That doesn't mean Big
Speaker 1: Daddy Kane is not a legend, because he is. But
Speaker 1: they're gonna give the money to the person that has
Speaker 1: the biggest drawing power. And and if you once again,
Speaker 1: I don't think Amy Schuman is funny. But we're not
Speaker 1: gonna sit here and act like she did not do
Speaker 1: a fifty city arena, wore around the world and sell
Speaker 1: it out in twenty sixteen to produce his own special
Speaker 1: and then end up selling it to Netflix after. I
Speaker 1: feel like things like that also give you more leverage.
Speaker 1: It's already done, it's package. Do you guys want it?
Speaker 1: It's a quick, easy thing for them to pick up.
Speaker 1: And another thing too. Yeah, let's talk about some more
Speaker 1: when we come back. I got some other little tidbits
Speaker 1: I want to share with you. Okay, Well that was
Speaker 1: Donkey to Day. When we come back eight five eight
Speaker 1: five one on five one, when we come back, did
Speaker 1: Monique deserve Donkey of the Day. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: it some more. Keep a lock this to Breakfast Club,
Speaker 1: Go Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
Speaker 1: angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club now.
Speaker 1: A couple of I think a month ago, a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, Charlemagne gave Monique Donkey of the Day. Now,
Speaker 1: why did you give a donkey today? I can't even
Speaker 1: remember now what was the specific reason, if there was one.
Speaker 1: I mean, I gave her a donkey to day because
Speaker 1: I feel like she's weaponizing things like racial bias and
Speaker 1: being to bias and how undervalued and unappreciated the black
Speaker 1: woman is. I mean, all of those issues are very
Speaker 1: very real, but I think she's weaponizing them because she's
Speaker 1: simply just not as hot as she once was. So
Speaker 1: being that she's not as hot as she once was,
Speaker 1: she can't get to pay days from Netflix. That Chris Rock,
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle, and Amy Schumer got it, and she called
Speaker 1: for a boycotting Netflix based off those very real issues.
Speaker 1: And I just I just don't like to see people
Speaker 1: weaponize real issues for their own personal game. All right,
Speaker 1: And we're asking eight hundred five eight five one on
Speaker 1: five one do you think Monique deserved Donkey of the Day? Hello?
Speaker 1: Who's this? Yo? Man? What up? Man? My name is
Speaker 1: Rapping montowner matth Louisville, Kentucky. What up, y'all? What's up? Bro?
Speaker 1: We're talking Monique this morning? You think she deserved donkey today,
Speaker 1: man away one hund to win, y'all, man to ask
Speaker 1: the world to literally boycott something that you know we
Speaker 1: do every day when people don't have cable. Yet you
Speaker 1: deserved donkey for that. But I do want to say
Speaker 1: this much because I've listened to the interview. I've been
Speaker 1: trying to call y'all for days. I've been trying to
Speaker 1: speak on that day's nine love situation. Charlom may not
Speaker 1: slightly agree with you when you say people who aren't
Speaker 1: funny and are funny. Dave Chappelle is not funny to me,
Speaker 1: but family get a million. I think they should have
Speaker 1: done something better for Monique. That's just my personal up
Speaker 1: man now, No, but but Dave may not be funny
Speaker 1: to you, but Dave is funny to tens of millions
Speaker 1: of other people who all the time and this is
Speaker 1: sold out, sells out. Dave sold out Radio City Music
Speaker 1: Hall like a million times. Yes, Like what are we
Speaker 1: talking about here? But thank you for your car bro
Speaker 1: Lonie should be concentrating her energy into actually doing like
Speaker 1: another special or something like that, because I feel like
Speaker 1: she's doing a tour about her boycott. Hello, who's this
Speaker 1: good morning? This? Who Candice from Jersey. Okay, so can
Speaker 1: I comment on the whole Monique thing? Go ahead, Candice,
Speaker 1: she absolutely deserved. Don't care today because here's here's my thing.
Speaker 1: I think Monique is a legend. I do think she
Speaker 1: has an extensive resume, but she hasn't done anything like
Speaker 1: currently that makes her as qualify as any schumer to
Speaker 1: get an eleven million dollars deal with Netflix. I feel
Speaker 1: like she shouldn't have worried about what was in Amy's bag,
Speaker 1: and she should have got her own bag. And if
Speaker 1: she really feel was like there's an inequality in black
Speaker 1: women or women in the Hollywood business, she should get
Speaker 1: her own studio, build your Brandon, and get your own studio.
Speaker 1: Then you won't have to worry about doing deals with
Speaker 1: Netflix and being under their you know, negotiation deals that's
Speaker 1: not you know, suited to your your liking. But you
Speaker 1: gotta do something you can't worry about somebody else trying
Speaker 1: to get your own She said she said she can't
Speaker 1: go out there and do her own arena tour. We
Speaker 1: asked her that she said the reason she can't is
Speaker 1: because promoters won't allow her to our, promoters don't book
Speaker 1: her or whatever, and I don't necessarily like her. Correct. Well,
Speaker 1: I want to say this, those top tier comedians like
Speaker 1: Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Kevin Hart, promoters don't give them work. Okay,
Speaker 1: those guys give the promoters work, and they determine what
Speaker 1: dates those promoters services are needed. And I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: something so real, Right, Charlotmagne, when you got to the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, right, just got fired from radio station for
Speaker 1: the fourth time. Your reputation wasn't the best in the world.
Speaker 1: That people thought that I was a liability, a liability
Speaker 1: and a troublemaker. Right, So when all true? When the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club gave you that offer, was it a great
Speaker 1: offer or was it the lowest offer of the low?
Speaker 1: I was broke. It was low. I mean it wasn't.
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't it was it was it was
Speaker 1: It wasn't the lords of the low. I will say
Speaker 1: it was the most I had ever made in radio
Speaker 1: up to that point. But based off what I'm making now,
Speaker 1: it's not even closed. But you had to build up
Speaker 1: something where people knew that you were a drawing then
Speaker 1: you was able to knock them over the head. Correct. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: I had to get those numbers. Uh, you got to
Speaker 1: prove yourself once people realize that, you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: the liability that they think I am, that I'm actually
Speaker 1: a nice guy to work with. That that was helped.
Speaker 1: But most but most importantly, it's the numbers. If I
Speaker 1: didn't have these numbers when we first started the Breakast Club,
Speaker 1: how many markets were we in one one New York City?
Speaker 1: Now we're in eighty plus markets around the country and
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty countries via an armed forces network
Speaker 1: got a crazy YouTube following, of course, I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: that coin now. And that's the point eight hundred five
Speaker 1: eight five one oh five one. We're talking Monique this
Speaker 1: morn Do you think she deserved donkey today? We'll take
Speaker 1: your calls when we come back as the Breakfast Club
Speaker 1: of Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
Speaker 1: the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now we're talking Monique.
Speaker 1: She was here earlier today were actually she was here yesterday.
Speaker 1: We played the interview today and we're asking did she
Speaker 1: deserve donkey of the day when Charlemagne gave a donkey
Speaker 1: to day weeks ago? That is the question now let's
Speaker 1: go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this Hi? This
Speaker 1: is Keana from Osting. Hey, Keana, did you think Monique
Speaker 1: deserved donkey today? Absolutely not Charlomagne. I usually listen to
Speaker 1: him every morning, and I'm very distrusted with the fact
Speaker 1: that he did this to her. And I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you why. I believe Monique in so many ways, and
Speaker 1: I can relate to her because even though I'm not
Speaker 1: in the filming industry, I'm in the finance Angel Straits
Speaker 1: and I am the only black mortgage anser at my
Speaker 1: job or a resail bank, and the five follows all
Speaker 1: the Westchester County, and I get black balled all the time.
Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, they try to pay black
Speaker 1: women as aggressives and we ask for more than what
Speaker 1: we are worse. But I just found out the other
Speaker 1: day a lot of other loan offercers that are not
Speaker 1: people of color are been getting paid more on their deal,
Speaker 1: you know, So I can believe it. She has an
Speaker 1: extensive was a man. I grew up off the Monique
Speaker 1: watching the Parkers alone. And you know, he just asks
Speaker 1: like her legacy is not working nothing, No, not at all.
Speaker 1: That's not that's not what I'm saying. That's not what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's not what I'm saying. I love. The
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is Netflix is not giving kills
Speaker 1: based off resumes and legacy. They're giving deals based off
Speaker 1: what are you doing right now? We're acting like Chris Rock,
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle, Amy Schumer are not selling out arenas right
Speaker 1: now and haven't been for the past four years, and
Speaker 1: prior to getting these Netflix deals, That's why they got
Speaker 1: these big Netflix deals. And the other thing, the other
Speaker 1: thing I would say to you is not really just
Speaker 1: about Netflix. And I know I keep bringing this out,
Speaker 1: but I know she's had issues with people like and
Speaker 1: she's called them out Lee Daniels, with Will Packer, with
Speaker 1: Oprah and these aren't These are people of Kyler also
Speaker 1: and Oprah as a black woman, and I think that
Speaker 1: also affects certain things. She could have been doing more
Speaker 1: projects with them, but because of whatever happened behind the scenes,
Speaker 1: it's not happening for her. I'm gonna be honest with you.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to be on that list, Monique. I'm happy.
Speaker 1: I'm glad that I'm that you have me on the
Speaker 1: list of people that you don't like like Oprah Tyler
Speaker 1: Lee Daniels, I'm fine, thank you, less to be on.
Speaker 1: I also want to say this too, man like when
Speaker 1: it comes to like Madison Square Garden, nobody puts you
Speaker 1: in Madison Square Guardian, like like comedians do so much
Speaker 1: business in other places that it becomes an option. Like
Speaker 1: like like somebody like Dave Chappelle doesn't like arenas, so
Speaker 1: he'll do multiple shows at Radio City. That's Dave's choice.
Speaker 1: Amy Schumer chose to play the Garden because she had
Speaker 1: the option, and the Garden booked her based on past
Speaker 1: ticket sales. Comics make their own opportunities. This isn't the
Speaker 1: record business. So when Monique says that they won't allow
Speaker 1: her to do arenas, it's not that they won't allow us,
Speaker 1: she just don't have the option based off her past
Speaker 1: and current ticket sale. Guard you don't think the drum power.
Speaker 1: She doesn't have the drum power to fill it. Example,
Speaker 1: I do believe that five for the thousand dollars is
Speaker 1: not what she's worth. But in this situation, in this situation,
Speaker 1: if nobody's giving you a deal in the else that
Speaker 1: you got a lest in that and I know that
Speaker 1: your name is Pool. Because people say that you're hard
Speaker 1: to work with, I would give you a low deal
Speaker 1: as well. I honestly would, because this is business. This
Speaker 1: is not about your legacy. If it was about legacy,
Speaker 1: i'd give you all the money in the world. But
Speaker 1: this is about business, and I think Monique understands that.
Speaker 1: Let's go tell hello, who's this yo? What's up? Man's talk? Tom?
Speaker 1: Do you believe Monique should have got donkey today? Yes?
Speaker 1: Give it to her again, YO, that's messed up. The
Speaker 1: problem I got with it is because she's being divisive,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. She's using racial bias and
Speaker 1: gender bias, and then she would you want to bring
Speaker 1: in black producers like Will Packer and Lie Daniels and
Speaker 1: compared on the people like Harvey Weinstein sexual sexual predators,
Speaker 1: you know, and youre comparing our black producers to him
Speaker 1: to make a point like where there's smoke, that's fire.
Speaker 1: Everybody's came out and said that she's difficult to work
Speaker 1: with everybody black man, black women. So stop using the
Speaker 1: racial thing and stop using the gender thing and just
Speaker 1: accepting for what it is, like it's not it's not
Speaker 1: working for you right now. And that's why I give
Speaker 1: her a donkey the day to begin with, because she's
Speaker 1: weaponizing racial bias, gender bias, and these real issues like
Speaker 1: black women being underappreciated and undervalued in the workplace for
Speaker 1: a personal situation like she knows, she knows that what's
Speaker 1: what's what's going on with her? And Netflix has nothing
Speaker 1: to do with anything but analytics. I do, she don't
Speaker 1: get the numbers. I do love the fact that we
Speaker 1: can come up here as a community and be able
Speaker 1: to talk about it, whether we agree or disagree. So
Speaker 1: we appreciate Monique for coming up here. But one now
Speaker 1: back though, hold on one thing. I was gonna say
Speaker 1: that I thought it was a little strange and a
Speaker 1: little crazy, and I did not like what Monique did.
Speaker 1: But that was on you. Charlemagne was continue to call
Speaker 1: you your government name. You know that that was that
Speaker 1: because that was a sign of disrespect that what she
Speaker 1: was trying to be. His name is Charlemagne the God
Speaker 1: on the radio, d is Lenardi, machaality, my mama named me.
Speaker 1: That what is wronging call my name? You think my
Speaker 1: mama calls me Charlemagne the God? Your name is Charlemagne
Speaker 1: on the radio that's your mama called. That's my wife
Speaker 1: calls me up here. We can call you Lenard, that's
Speaker 1: my name. I don't listen. Yes, what are you so
Speaker 1: upset of that? Okay, you can. I don't care if
Speaker 1: you don't care, I don't care, Lenard. Yes, let's wrap
Speaker 1: this up. What's next. It's a lot of things we
Speaker 1: can say about this Monique interview, but let me do
Speaker 1: that over daddy. Let's wrap this up. Oh, thank you,
Speaker 1: my love. Listen, my love. If it's one thing that
Speaker 1: we can take from this Monique interview, if it's this
Speaker 1: one thing, I want everybody to take his business one
Speaker 1: on one. When presented a deal, if you don't like
Speaker 1: to offer, counter offer, and after every first deal, you
Speaker 1: will have to counter offer. If you don't counter offer,
Speaker 1: you have no one to blame but yourself. They did
Speaker 1: not counter offer, which is crazy to me. That that
Speaker 1: alone is the craziest thing I took away from that interview.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what we're talking about or what
Speaker 1: we're debating if you didn't even counter offer. And by
Speaker 1: the way, Monique thought they did counter offer, but her
Speaker 1: husband said they didn't counter offer, So it sounds like
Speaker 1: it's a miscommunication between talent and management. But that ain't
Speaker 1: my business. Hope to show that out to money. I
Speaker 1: do think she's funny, and I think that five hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars was a way low offer. But I think
Speaker 1: she should have counted offer. And I wish you the best.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what she said. But you know, I will
Speaker 1: like I think she's funny, you know, and I'll definitely
Speaker 1: wish you the best. By the way, go check out
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle's news stand up on Netflix, as well as
Speaker 1: Chris Rock called Tambourine. All Right. I can't recommend Amy
Speaker 1: Choomers because I don't think it's funny, but Dave Chappelle
Speaker 1: and Chris Rock go check it out now. Daddy number two, No, yee,
Speaker 1: Daddy number two, I'm not daddy. We got rumors on
Speaker 1: the way, son, but I'm shut up. We got rumors
Speaker 1: on the way. Yes, we are going to talk about
Speaker 1: Tiffany Haddis in Oprah Winfrey. We got some great news.

Speaker 1: some of mine and then we just go to different

Speaker 1: closed Positiffy, she said, we'll make it. Think Oprah won't
Speaker 1: be right there beside her pulling out the weeds and
Speaker 1: growing plants. But anyway, all I know she's been off
Speaker 1: in more than five hundred dollars. Tiffany has also says
Speaker 1: that she wrote lots of letters to Oprah as well.
