Speaker 1: Come on now, clearly yesterday you know, I've been dealing
Speaker 1: with my house that I bought in Brooklyn, So I
Speaker 1: was dealing with that, but I was really I've been
Speaker 1: distracted yesterday all day, just dealing with this break in
Speaker 1: that happened at the juice Bot. I've been talking to
Speaker 1: like all these different police officers, so I think they
Speaker 1: apprehended the person. Um so yeah, so now I feel
Speaker 1: much better. But when I tell you so much? Any
Speaker 1: different people calling me different precincts and Queens and Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: And then I've been sending this video because we had
Speaker 1: video footage of the person. But they recovered our Uber
Speaker 1: eats tablet right the person was breaking into another location
Speaker 1: in Queens and had it on them. Yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: mean the video of the person. Did they say who
Speaker 1: the person was or what is conditional? Not yet? Did
Speaker 1: he seemed like he needed some help? I'm the breaking
Speaker 1: into multiple businesses? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean just the way.
Speaker 1: But you know, he looked the way he was walking
Speaker 1: like he didn't look healthy. That's what I'm saying. He
Speaker 1: looked like he needed some type of help. That's why exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But I was reading about what's been happening in New York.
Speaker 1: They said, because so many businesses are closed, a lot
Speaker 1: of people are also going into those empty businesses and
Speaker 1: going to the wall and breaking into open businesses that
Speaker 1: are next door too. That's another thing that's been happening. Yeah. That,
Speaker 1: and uh, these brothers out here is high tech. Man.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know, but if they're trying
Speaker 1: to rob you or they're trying to get you, what
Speaker 1: they're doing now is they put this little device on
Speaker 1: your car so they can see doing that. That's two
Speaker 1: years old. Were you talking about? Did you know that job?
Speaker 1: We had a conversation to hear about checking out cards
Speaker 1: in the parking lot. Well number they did that to Safari,
Speaker 1: but I didn't know if people really knew that. But
Speaker 1: they're still doing that a lot. That's how they know
Speaker 1: if you're home, they can see on the tracking device
Speaker 1: that you're not home, and that's how they know to
Speaker 1: break into your house. Hey, man, if you can figure
Speaker 1: all that out, you can get a job. That's what
Speaker 1: I can figure all that out. Man, Just go get
Speaker 1: a goddamn job or started app or something. You can
Speaker 1: figure something else out. If you can do all that, geez,
Speaker 1: let's start the show, all right, front page, that's what
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Well, let's talk about legalize it. You
Speaker 1: guys live in New Jersey, so there's some big news
Speaker 1: for you there. All right, we'll get into all that
Speaker 1: when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on
Speaker 1: it like everybody in cej Envy, Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news.
Speaker 1: Where were starting you? Well, Joe Biden has announced some
Speaker 1: changes in the loan program that's aimed at supposedly helping
Speaker 1: small and minority owned businesses. And you know, this looks
Speaker 1: like something good because we talked about this paycheck protection
Speaker 1: program ever since COVID started. It is supposed to help
Speaker 1: with federal assistance for these businesses, but unfortunately, many of
Speaker 1: those businesses did not get the money. Now, these changes
Speaker 1: are supposed to facilitate loans for contractors, for self employee people,
Speaker 1: for non citizens who are lawful US residents, and business
Speaker 1: owners with previous non fraud convictions. So they also said
Speaker 1: there will be a fourteen day window starting March to
Speaker 1: ninth for businesses with fewer than twenty employees to apply
Speaker 1: for relief. Here's what he said on Wednesday. The Small
Speaker 1: Business Administration is going to establish a fourteen day exclusive
Speaker 1: PPP loan application period for businesses and nonprofits with fewer
Speaker 1: than twenty employees. Small Business Administration will also remove barriers
Speaker 1: that have stopped many business from being able to apply
Speaker 1: for these loans. We're making it so that a student
Speaker 1: loan default or a non fraud related criminal record does
Speaker 1: not prohibit someone from applying for the program. We're all
Speaker 1: should making it easier for those one person businesses to
Speaker 1: secure forgivable p p P launch. I mean, loans are
Speaker 1: like most things in America, though it gets to black
Speaker 1: business businesses last, if it gets to black businesses at all. Well,
Speaker 1: of the problem is a lot of people don't know
Speaker 1: how to properly file. That's the problems most people who
Speaker 1: have small businesses, don't have a huge accounting team and
Speaker 1: can't have people file for you. So if you don't
Speaker 1: file the right way to proper way, you won't get
Speaker 1: the loan. Yeah, a lot of people did try to
Speaker 1: do it and didn't get that money. And so this
Speaker 1: is supposed to help specifically minority women and veteran owned
Speaker 1: businesses and people in rural areas. And it's true. We
Speaker 1: saw a lot of these huge companies, you know, got
Speaker 1: in front of the line, got all this money, and
Speaker 1: then what happened to the smaller businesses that were suffering.
Speaker 1: And see, that's the problem because a lot of times
Speaker 1: when they use that minority language, it goes to white women,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it goes to the poor whites.
Speaker 1: They usually end up getting that relief first a minority
Speaker 1: white women. When they say minority yeah, gold to white women.
Speaker 1: Well that's like minority and women owned businesses, because they
Speaker 1: say minorities and then they also say women yeah, and
Speaker 1: those women white most of the time. A lot they
Speaker 1: said at least four hundred thousand small businesses have closed permanently,
Speaker 1: and so that has been an awful situation. You can
Speaker 1: see it, I'm sure no matter where you live, you
Speaker 1: see a lot of businesses that have shut down. All
Speaker 1: right now they say the thing about socially and economically
Speaker 1: disadvantaged individuals. That usually means Paul White's all right, well
Speaker 1: that is your front page news. All right, get it
Speaker 1: off your chess. Eight on't drip five eight five one
Speaker 1: oh five one. If you need to vent, hit us

Speaker 1: moon from? Truly? What's up? Put your pants up? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Charlot man out that they don't. I got some exclusive information.
Speaker 1: So I was calling because y'all was just talking about
Speaker 1: the PPP program. So the way that you get it, um,
Speaker 1: you have to file as a sole proprietor. Right. So
Speaker 1: the way that you do that is you have to
Speaker 1: fill out a scheduled C form. When you feel that
Speaker 1: form out, you had the option of saying that your
Speaker 1: income was cash. Now, this is not telling y'all to
Speaker 1: go out there and scam the government out these forms. No,
Speaker 1: because with the with the scheduled C form, they're not
Speaker 1: looking for perfection. They're looking to see if you deserve alone.
Speaker 1: They're not looking for perfection on that UM particular document.
Speaker 1: So when you feel that form out and then you
Speaker 1: go to UM get the PPP, they're going to ask
Speaker 1: you to upload that document. So don't don't put nothing
Speaker 1: crazy on it or anything like that. But the reason
Speaker 1: is they won't go for your actual credit. They won't.
Speaker 1: They won't go to sound illegal to me, perfectly sound illegal.
Speaker 1: It sounds like you from Philly and you're not a
Speaker 1: dream chase and you're a dream scamra. That's what it
Speaker 1: sounds like. You know, I didn't personally get the loan
Speaker 1: because I didn't apply for it. I didn't get the
Speaker 1: loan because I started my business this year. If you
Speaker 1: started your business anywhere after February fifteen two and now you,
Speaker 1: if you would have got the loan, I could have
Speaker 1: listened to you. But you can't. You mean you ain't
Speaker 1: get the loan because I have someone that teaches people
Speaker 1: how to get the loan, and the lady only at
Speaker 1: I don't want to put her on blast. He's on Clubhouse.
Speaker 1: I don't want to. But she's on clubhouse already. I can't, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can't. She's on Clubhouse. That is a reliable source. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's wrong with y'all. Get it off your chest eight
Speaker 1: dred five eight five one on five one if you
Speaker 1: need to vet hit this up now. We got rooms
Speaker 1: on the way. Yes, and let's talk about Megan the Stallion.
Speaker 1: Somebody was just praising her song wop and it's not
Speaker 1: the most likely person that you would think, but it's
Speaker 1: super dope. All right, we'll get into it next. It's
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Everybody is
Speaker 1: DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne. The guy we are the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club is Bobby schmirder Home. Yet, that is my question?
Speaker 1: Do we know? I have no idea. I see that,
Speaker 1: but we know said he was picking him up. Quabo
Speaker 1: said he's flying there to pick him up. I want
Speaker 1: to know it is Bobby schmirder Home. Yet I think
Speaker 1: Quab was already here. I saw Quible giving a Roddy
Speaker 1: revel a bunch of money on social media. I've seen that.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk
Speaker 1: Megan the Stallion. It's about this is the rumor report,
Speaker 1: Angela Yees on the Breakfast Club. Well, Megan the Stallion
Speaker 1: and Maxine Waters had a conversation for Harper's Bizarre Online,
Speaker 1: and one of the things that they talked about was
Speaker 1: the song Whop. They told me to look at that
Speaker 1: was it? Well? And I did. Don't worry, don't worry,
Speaker 1: don't worry, don't worry, don't worry. That I said, Now,
Speaker 1: that's our that's today, and that is the ability for
Speaker 1: women to take charge of what they want to say,
Speaker 1: because I had paid attention to the young you know,
Speaker 1: Gangster Wrap, a time when you know, men were in charge.
Speaker 1: They say whatever they wanted to say, but women, you know,
Speaker 1: didn't say for a long time what they could say
Speaker 1: or wanted to say or dare to say. Okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Very important to note that wapp is the latest evolution
Speaker 1: of women expressing their sexual desires. Though max Maxine is
Speaker 1: an old g she shouldn't know that. You can't forget
Speaker 1: about Salt and Pepper and TLC and Little Kim and
Speaker 1: Fox Brown and Tren in Gangster Bull, Missy Elliott, you know,
Speaker 1: Kyle Nicki Minaje like, you know a lot of women
Speaker 1: sexual desires now. Magan the Stallion also was talking about
Speaker 1: protecting black women and why is that so hard to do.
Speaker 1: They feel like it's controversial and all I'm saying is
Speaker 1: protect black women, and now people are taking it like
Speaker 1: it's I'm saying something crazy. So just to be supported
Speaker 1: by another black woman who you know sends the same message,
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know what, I am doing the
Speaker 1: right thing and I'm gonna keep doing it because Max
Speaker 1: Seine Water saying I can that's right. That's social media
Speaker 1: saying that too. Though social media is not real life.
Speaker 1: I promise you'all majority of the opinions on social media
Speaker 1: whole no real weight in the real world because we
Speaker 1: know protect black women as the model. All right, now,
Speaker 1: Quest of Love. After having a very successful documentary that
Speaker 1: actually with at the Sundance Film Festival, he has announced
Speaker 1: that he has his second feature film coming and that
Speaker 1: feature film will be on sly Stone, So that should
Speaker 1: be really exciting. And you guys, if you don't know
Speaker 1: who slid Stone sly in the Family Stone is, you
Speaker 1: know they had that song and you always hear on
Speaker 1: commercials hot fun in the summer time. And he's a
Speaker 1: super creative person. I think a lot of R and
Speaker 1: B and social artists have kind of my old and
Speaker 1: fashioned themselves. After him. I know DiAngelo used to study
Speaker 1: sly Stone before he would perform, and just see how
Speaker 1: he actually did his work. They had great songs, dance
Speaker 1: to the music everyday people, all of that. So now
Speaker 1: he's doing a documentary on sly Stone, so I think
Speaker 1: that'll be really dope. Family a fair, m that's the record.
Speaker 1: Everybody who know it's a family fair. It's a family
Speaker 1: and they had that time. I wanna thank you for
Speaker 1: letting me be myself. Don't forget about lose booty booty
Speaker 1: a right, never mind? All right? And the club? Okay,
Speaker 1: how's it going? Just google? You can google alright. Fred
Speaker 1: the Godson has gotten a street named after him in
Speaker 1: the Bronx, so it's official congratulations as his friends and
Speaker 1: family were celebrating his first postumist birthday after releasing his
Speaker 1: latest album, Ascension. So it's a nine song tape with
Speaker 1: no features, and now he has a street named after him,
Speaker 1: so that's pretty dope. He did pass away last year
Speaker 1: in April due to complications with COVID nineteen probably includes
Speaker 1: boons with Fred to gods rest in peace, all right.

Speaker 1: I did have an edible late laughing right now. I
Speaker 1: don't know what is clearly or maybe I went to
Speaker 1: sleep and I didn't get the high, but I woke
Speaker 1: up with it. I'll be okay, all right, Friday's next
Speaker 1: to the Breakfast Club morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela
Speaker 1: Yee Scharlam the guy we are to breakfast Clublet's getting
Speaker 1: too front page news where we're starting you. Well, it's official.
Speaker 1: New Jersey has become the latest day to permit recreational
Speaker 1: marijuana use. They approved a series of bills yesterday that
Speaker 1: regulates the sale of cannabis to anybody over the age
Speaker 1: of twenty one. Good job, Governor Murphy dropping in clues
Speaker 1: bonds from Governor Murphy. Now, but when are they letting
Speaker 1: the brothers and sisters out of the jail who are
Speaker 1: locked up for non violent weed defenses. If that doesn't
Speaker 1: happen to an this is one of the most hypocritical
Speaker 1: pieces of legislation of a path. Yeah, it definitely needs
Speaker 1: to and I think that's something federally that needs to
Speaker 1: take place too. But I actually thought that was the
Speaker 1: hold up. I thought that they were trying to figure
Speaker 1: all of that out. That's what they said. They were
Speaker 1: trying to figure that out. And also as far as
Speaker 1: the licenses of concern, making sure that minorities get the
Speaker 1: licenses since we've been affected. What are the boasts? Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: the legislation does further provide for them to reinvest cannabis
Speaker 1: revenues and designated impact zones, and it also directs the
Speaker 1: Cannabis Regulatory Commission to promote diversity and inclusion in business ownership.
Speaker 1: And it contains critical employment protections for people who engage
Speaker 1: in lawful behavior with respect to cannabis. So that was
Speaker 1: in the official news release. And listen once again, you know,
Speaker 1: if they don't, you know, let the Brothers assists out
Speaker 1: of jail who are locked up for non violent we defenses.
Speaker 1: This is absolutely one of the most hypocritical pieces of
Speaker 1: legislation of a path and it's got to be a
Speaker 1: bit of sweet celebration, because that's just wrong. You got
Speaker 1: people who in you know, jail for life in New Jersey.
Speaker 1: But weed is legalized all right. Now. Spotify is planning
Speaker 1: to monetize podcasts now. They're launching a new Audio Advertising
Speaker 1: Marketplace to Spotify Audience Network, which will allow advertisers to
Speaker 1: reach listeners across Spotify's originals and exclusives, as well as
Speaker 1: podcasts via Megaphone and their creation to anchor. So now
Speaker 1: there's going to be ads and that way people can
Speaker 1: make money if they have a podcast that's on the
Speaker 1: Spotify network. They haven't been anybody. They haven't been monetizing
Speaker 1: on Spotify. I think for the creators, it'll help you.
Speaker 1: As far as they're gonna have a paid advertising thing,
Speaker 1: so now I guess it's gonna They haven't launched it yet,
Speaker 1: but they're gonna. Um, well, no, that's what I mean.
Speaker 1: They haven't been doing paid advertims on Spotify. I thought
Speaker 1: they've been doing that. I don't know. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to pay for a certain podcasts now,
Speaker 1: from what I'm understanding what you're saying. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: podcasts behind the paywall is whack anyway, though, I don't
Speaker 1: think that's how podcasts is supposed to be digested. It's
Speaker 1: like radio, right, It's like satellite radio is cool, but
Speaker 1: to rest your radio will always reign supreme over satellite
Speaker 1: radio because it's free. That's why. That's why I feel
Speaker 1: like podcast shouldn't behind the paywall. Yeah, but but but
Speaker 1: you don't pay for remember like Serious satellite radio, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: and they actually, but that's the purpose you pay. You
Speaker 1: pay a monthly subscription, so you don't have to pay
Speaker 1: for commercials. You can just hear give me a straight through. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but why why I pay for radioca? Some people don't
Speaker 1: want to hear the commercials. To rest your will always
Speaker 1: range the pre simply because because think about it, when
Speaker 1: Howard Stern left Wind went to Serious, the reason why
Speaker 1: he got the money that he went he got was
Speaker 1: because it's paid subscription. Absolutely. I just don't think stuff
Speaker 1: a lot everything shouldn't behind a paywall, and I think
Speaker 1: this kind of conception should not be behind the paywall
Speaker 1: podcast aladio my personal opinions. Yeah, I mean, I think
Speaker 1: you just have to be have an audience that's willing
Speaker 1: to pay the audience. I don't see nothing wrong with it. Monetized.
Speaker 1: You ain't gonna pay for advertisement, you keep everything to yourself.
Speaker 1: I think that's fall Actually, all right, now, let's talk
Speaker 1: about a seventy five You remember that seventy five year
Speaker 1: old protested that was shoved to the ground by police
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. What that happened? And he actually ended up
Speaker 1: suffering a fractured skull. This happened on June fourth. It
Speaker 1: would look awful. Martin Gugino was his name. Well, those
Speaker 1: officers in Buffalo, they did file charges against those two
Speaker 1: police officers, but a grand jury earlier this month's declient
Speaker 1: charges the case was dismissed. I don't see how I
Speaker 1: knew that. That was a couple of weeks ago there
Speaker 1: anoder when they pushed Homie on the floor and he
Speaker 1: did asks charges. That's crazy. So that tells you a
Speaker 1: lot of the seventy five year white man gets pushed
Speaker 1: you the ground and nothing happens to the police. What
Speaker 1: does that say for the rest of us me in trouble? Yeah,
Speaker 1: they said that the officers were simply following departments procedures
Speaker 1: and the directives up their superiors to Claire Niagara Square,
Speaker 1: despite working under extremely challenging circumstances. That was their rationale
Speaker 1: for why that was okay. So even though this man
Speaker 1: stuff for a concussion and a fractured skull, spent nearly
Speaker 1: a month in the hospital, apparently these officers did nothing wrong.
Speaker 1: All right, well that is your front page news. All right,
Speaker 1: thank you, miss ye. Now let's talk about young thug.
Speaker 1: Young thug yesterday posted on the social media that he
Speaker 1: was in Vegas and he lost eight hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 1: in the casino. Man Vegas at one eight hundred thousand

Speaker 1: we let launched. Y'all got money to gamble? Well, I
Speaker 1: think I'm very like I will talk about it. I
Speaker 1: have a whole plan in the system of how I gamble,
Speaker 1: when I gamble, Charlman, I don't gamble at all. I've
Speaker 1: been unemployed seven times in my life. Okay, I don't
Speaker 1: play with my money like that. All right. I want
Speaker 1: twenty four hundred dollars one time off for one dollar
Speaker 1: in the slot machine. And I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan.
Speaker 1: What the hell would I be gambling for? Why would
Speaker 1: I ever been on them? Yeah? Right? Eight hundred five

Speaker 1: it morning. Everybody is tj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the breakfast club. Good morning now if you
Speaker 1: just join us. We're talking about young Thug. Now young Thug.
Speaker 1: He was on his Instagram and talking about when he
Speaker 1: was in Vegas manas at one eight hundred thousand. For me,
Speaker 1: man I am yeah, he lost eight hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: So we're asking what's the most you ever lost? Gambling?
Speaker 1: Me myself, I don't gamble. I'm not a gambler. And
Speaker 1: if I do go gambler with my wife, I make
Speaker 1: it seem like it's an event. Meaning if I was
Speaker 1: gonna take my wife out for dinner and a movie,
Speaker 1: if I would have spent four hundred, that's all I'm gambling.
Speaker 1: If I lose that, four hundred's gone. I don't I
Speaker 1: don't go further than that and four hundred. If I
Speaker 1: lose that, I'm crying. But if I win fifty two
Speaker 1: hundred dollars, I walk away like I'm not a gambler.
Speaker 1: I'll never get ten thousand gambling because I don't spend
Speaker 1: that much to gain, but I just rather put it
Speaker 1: in other things. That's me personal. The biggest I enjoy gambling. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The biggest gamble I take is when um, I dabbling
Speaker 1: ice cream, because I know I'm like Tolson Doller. That's
Speaker 1: about it. Biggest risk I tacked. Well, I love to gamble,
Speaker 1: and so I've learned a trick. And my trick is
Speaker 1: that when i'm gambling, if i'm up whatever I put in,
Speaker 1: I put that money, I put those chips in my pocket,
Speaker 1: and then whatever else I have after that, I feel
Speaker 1: free to gamble with that, and if I lose it,
Speaker 1: it's fine at least I walk away even but I'm
Speaker 1: not dipping into my pocket to take the money that
Speaker 1: I've won back out. And the most I've ever won,
Speaker 1: I've won six thousand dollars playing blackjack, and I won
Speaker 1: twenty four hundred on the slots. That's the most i've
Speaker 1: ever won. I try not to lose. I never bet
Speaker 1: that high. I just I just won't. I'm not Nope,
Speaker 1: I'd rather use that. But you don't have to bet
Speaker 1: that high. That's what I'm saying. All you do is
Speaker 1: take the money that you're as you're winning. I put
Speaker 1: one chip in my pocket, like say I put up
Speaker 1: two hundred dollars, right, I put it twenty five dollars,
Speaker 1: tipping my pocket once I'm up, and I'm back at that,
Speaker 1: like say I have two twenty five. Then I keep
Speaker 1: on gambling. If I lose, I'm out. If I keep
Speaker 1: on going up, probably four hundred dollars. All right, let's
Speaker 1: go to the phone. Hello, who's this, Yeah, it's your boy,
Speaker 1: Sterling Stack. I'm calling from Columbia. Stuff to herlan. What's up? Brother?
Speaker 1: What's going on? My brother? I ain't hurt from you
Speaker 1: and forever man, Man, we're still around. We're still around
Speaker 1: the man. You know everything's good, Yes, sir, So what's
Speaker 1: the most you have the Lord's bro? Man, Listen your
Speaker 1: first time I went to the casino, I went to
Speaker 1: Biloxi the Grand Casino. I spent one hundred dollars and
Speaker 1: I won, like maybe like seen grand. So there's gonna
Speaker 1: be my new occupation now, right. So I take my
Speaker 1: girl band. Two weeks later, my cousin, I get everybody room,
Speaker 1: I go down there and I lose about four or
Speaker 1: five grand with their life. This is gonna be my
Speaker 1: new occupation, you know. But they got me. You yeah,
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. When you went a little bit,
Speaker 1: you feel so confident, and then you start calculating in
Speaker 1: your head. I only put up a hundred, and I've
Speaker 1: won ten grand. Imagine if I would have put up
Speaker 1: a thousand, I would have had a exactly when I
Speaker 1: tell you what's so bad? Like, they got me off
Speaker 1: the table when I was down and we wouldn't eat
Speaker 1: breaking yo, I told them I had to go to
Speaker 1: the band from my rant back downstairs to the black
Speaker 1: jack table, loss every dollar in my pocket. I had
Speaker 1: to break in my career around for me at a
Speaker 1: discount and send me money just so I get everybody home.

Speaker 1: to the ATM and doing all that and putting your
Speaker 1: card down at the table, it's over. No, it was.
Speaker 1: It was bad, man, it was bad. But you know,
Speaker 1: but I went to Bakers two years ago and hit
Speaker 1: a lick, so you know, you know it's always to
Speaker 1: come back, all right, right, hold on to that. That's

Speaker 1: hip hop, right, the laws of the street. If snitches
Speaker 1: get stitches and snitches get you know, banished in YadA, YadA, YadA, right,
Speaker 1: shouldn't somebody who held it down get celebrated? Absolutely? And
Speaker 1: I think he will. I think he will. I think

Speaker 1: I know, Thugga Thucker said he got something. I got
Speaker 1: a bag for you, thug. Actually he posted me when

Speaker 1: a long way. Who I've never met young thug in
Speaker 1: my life. Well, he said he was gonna tort you
Speaker 1: you one time and tie you up at one time.
Speaker 1: But then't yeah, and then didn't you guys speak? And
Speaker 1: he said he wanted to come on the show. No,
Speaker 1: I never never spoke. He wanted to come on the show. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but you guys came a long way. Told you that
Speaker 1: was cool. That was a good time. That was a
Speaker 1: good time. Was a twenty sixteen Yeah, twenty sixteen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tie you up and told you you boy,
Speaker 1: you've heard that before. Shut up. I don't even know
Speaker 1: how to hold time, My goodness threatened me. Right. We
Speaker 1: got rumors coming up, Yes, and we'll be discussing a
Speaker 1: new podcast that Barack Obama is doing. It feels like
Speaker 1: an unlikely peering. All right, we'll get to it next.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club Go Morning my Heart radio station Anthimmy.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, Vanessa Brian was on Instagram and calling
Speaker 1: out me Mill over the line that she had an
Speaker 1: issue with. People thought it was disrespectful to Kobe Bryant.
Speaker 1: Here's the line and if I ever let him going
Speaker 1: out with my trab being novel? Kobe all right, and
Speaker 1: we had a whole discussion about this up here on
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. I said, I'm sure Vanessa Bryant has
Speaker 1: She's been very vocal about how she feels about people
Speaker 1: even posting tributes to Kobe Bryant at this time, so
Speaker 1: it did feel insensitive because she's been vocal about it.
Speaker 1: She has her daughters, you know, who also are seeing
Speaker 1: all this, and I'm sure they're aware and listen to
Speaker 1: Meek Mill. So she posted darre Meek Mill, I find
Speaker 1: this line to be extremely insensitive and disrespectful period. I
Speaker 1: am not familiar with your music, but I believe you
Speaker 1: can do better than this. If you are a fan, fine,
Speaker 1: there's a better way to show your admiration for my husband.
Speaker 1: This lacks respect and tact and that's how she felt
Speaker 1: about it, or nothing to say if Vanessa is offended,
Speaker 1: if Vanessa is offended. Only thing you could do as
Speaker 1: apologize for Meek Mill right right. So then I don't
Speaker 1: know if this was just bad timing, but he posted
Speaker 1: on Twitter, I'm going back savage in this ish f
Speaker 1: your feelings. I don't think we are on the same signal, y'all.
Speaker 1: I don't see what y'all see. I'll be looking at
Speaker 1: the net laughing like I did what I say random
Speaker 1: ish all day on. So so it becomes a trend
Speaker 1: to hate on me every once in a while. But
Speaker 1: I feed off that ish. I'm a beast. Literally, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna stay on this one hundred m chase to feed
Speaker 1: the kids. I'm ana dip from the crowd and stay
Speaker 1: in the VIP. And then he said, I apologize to
Speaker 1: her in private earlier today, not to the public. Nothing
Speaker 1: I say on my page directed to an internet viral
Speaker 1: moment or the family of a grieving woman if you
Speaker 1: care about someone grieving. Changed the subject. But that's a
Speaker 1: long ass tweet. First of all, a few different tweets. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's a few different lines. Let's go back to what
Speaker 1: you said initially. So after Vanessa tweeted that, he tweeted out,
Speaker 1: I'm going back savage mode if you're feelings. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: we don't know if that was necessarily two hit Homoimon.
Speaker 1: We don't know if that was necessarily towards come on,
Speaker 1: come on. I refused to believe Meek is that clue.
Speaker 1: He might not have seen that at the time. He
Speaker 1: might have been still going got I gotta shoot meets
Speaker 1: some belle Meeks emotional, I Q gotta be way higher
Speaker 1: than that. I refused to believe he saw Vanessa Brian
Speaker 1: saying no way and didn't tweeted that I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't believe that can't even be a possibility. You know
Speaker 1: how some comics got great comedic time. Miek is the
Speaker 1: opposite of that. Meek just pops in at the wrong
Speaker 1: time and we end up laughing at him instead of
Speaker 1: you know, yeah that was towards six nine and some
Speaker 1: other street stuff that there was no use. But I
Speaker 1: do fail in this particular situation. Vanessa Bryant has been
Speaker 1: very vocal, even saying I don't want to please don't
Speaker 1: post anything from the accident, even not wanting anybody from
Speaker 1: the NBA to do tributes this year, just because she
Speaker 1: said it just hurts too much. So I kind of
Speaker 1: feel like mentioning his name. We should know that's gonna
Speaker 1: not be good either. We knew it was gonna hurt
Speaker 1: of feelings, I'm sure, but you know, there's so many
Speaker 1: rappers have done things like that before, and then they
Speaker 1: play word play and it sounds dope because they think
Speaker 1: it's wordplay, But then don't they don't realize how they
Speaker 1: affect her they hurt. I think we're also for getting
Speaker 1: one important thing. What's that the song wasn'tupposed to come out,
Speaker 1: and Meek did record the song, and I have it
Speaker 1: on very reliable sources that he was told don't put
Speaker 1: the record out. The record wasn't to come out. It
Speaker 1: was leaked, so let's be let's be clear on that
Speaker 1: too as well. Right, I would have probably just said
Speaker 1: that then. And I also feel like, you know, publicly,
Speaker 1: people heard this and it made the round, So why
Speaker 1: not just said one, I apologize the song wasn't supposed
Speaker 1: to come out. Well, I thought he did say that.
Speaker 1: I just think that's as simple. That's just a simple though.
Speaker 1: I think he did say it was leaked. All right. Now,
Speaker 1: Barack Obama is doing a podcast with Bruce Springsteen. That's
Speaker 1: a Spotify exclusive original podcast that feels like a weird
Speaker 1: pairing to me, but it's called Renegades Born in the USA.
Speaker 1: It's an eight episode podcast, and here is the trailer,
Speaker 1: the surface. Bruce and I don't have a lat in common.
Speaker 1: He's a white guy from a small town in Jersey.
Speaker 1: I'm a black guy, mixed race morning hawaire. He's a
Speaker 1: rock and roll hy common. I'm not as cool in
Speaker 1: our own ways. Bruce and I have been on parallel
Speaker 1: journeys looking for a way to connect our own individual
Speaker 1: searches for meaning, truth than community with the Charger story
Speaker 1: of America, and over the course of a few days,
Speaker 1: all just a few miles from where he grew up,
Speaker 1: we talked. It doesn't excite me, so I thought it
Speaker 1: was just me the Boston barock. Not so sorry, guys,
Speaker 1: maybe I'm hating. They'll be talking about their hometowns, their
Speaker 1: role models, modern manhood, and the divided state of America today,
Speaker 1: how we can all move forward together now. They did
Speaker 1: have a stream on event yesterday, so other news from that,
Speaker 1: they announced a multi year deal with the creators of
Speaker 1: Avengers Infinity War and Avengers End Game, so they'll be
Speaker 1: doing that They also launched a podcast from Abra dubern
Speaker 1: A focused on social change and cases of police brutality.
Speaker 1: A few different things that they announced that also, like
Speaker 1: we said earlier, they're also testing the ability for podcasts
Speaker 1: to earn revenue through paid subscriptions for fan only content
Speaker 1: on the platform. Not that that Marvel stuff you mentioned,
Speaker 1: and I know you said it was doing like a
Speaker 1: documentary stuff like that, I'll pay for. I'll pay for
Speaker 1: like scripted audio content, you know what I mean. Stuff
Speaker 1: that is that that's like movies and TV shows, things
Speaker 1: of that nature, but just regular podcast No. They also
Speaker 1: did a Warner Brothers DC deal for original spot podcast
Speaker 1: that will includes stories about characters like Superman, Low's Laying
Speaker 1: wonder Woman, Joker, cat Woman, Riddler, Back Girl, Harley Quinn,
Speaker 1: DC's Trash. I'm a Marvel guy, but everybody that you
Speaker 1: just named, I might pay for joking Holly Quinn. I
Speaker 1: like joking Holly Quinn. All right. Lionel Richie has a
Speaker 1: new bad well not new. He's been dating this girl
Speaker 1: since twenty fourteen, but they were trending yesterday and the
Speaker 1: reason why his girlfriend Lisa Parigi, Like I said, they've
Speaker 1: been dating for seven years now, she's thirty years old
Speaker 1: and he is seventy one years old. So people were
Speaker 1: reacting to the nearly when he was on sixty five
Speaker 1: from Where Are There? Yeah, yeah, you have it all
Speaker 1: night long when you seventy something years old and your
Speaker 1: girlfriend ain't know all night long. Jesus don't need some
Speaker 1: blue choes, some prayer whatever, I think, right right, Cat Daddy?
Speaker 1: A lot of women like line of Richie though, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh really yeah, a lot of women love a lot
Speaker 1: of Richie. I don't know, Cat Daddy, they do, so
Speaker 1: I guess he understand I didn't know, so I guess
Speaker 1: he understands because his daughter was what nineteen dating a
Speaker 1: thirty five year old, So I guess if it makes
Speaker 1: sense he did, he understands. He's cool with it. Seventy
Speaker 1: and thirty is crazy and it ain't even crazy for
Speaker 1: him though. It's just like I'm looking at her like,
Speaker 1: why are you want this seven year old man? Why
Speaker 1: are you here? I don't know. I know, like I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna be seven. Know what's going to happen if
Speaker 1: he dancing on the ceiling dropping the clues bumb a
Speaker 1: lot of Richard, y'all know, his knees is gonna be hurt.
Speaker 1: It ain't gonna be dancing on the stands while here.
Speaker 1: I know, business on his knees should be all back action, okayed,
Speaker 1: back the whole time, be on some women's in partment.
Speaker 1: You take control, you know, that's what you do. That
Speaker 1: is your rumor report. Wow, alright, Lottle Richard. I ain't
Speaker 1: mad at him though, All right, all who's your ass
Speaker 1: giving a dog? At two? Um? H? Eric Spencer, Eric
Speaker 1: Spencer need to come to the front of the congregation.
Speaker 1: I like to have a word with him. I did
Speaker 1: take it edible last night, but it was only because
Speaker 1: I couldn't sleep. But I think I took it way
Speaker 1: too late my time. Did you take it man? For me?
Speaker 1: It was late. It was like nine thirty. That's too late. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was too late. That's too That's why you've been
Speaker 1: a little giddy old ball the lord because I fell asleep.
Speaker 1: Touch you, failing. I don't know what's wrong with you
Speaker 1: this morning. But I ain't touch you. No, you touched dramas.
Speaker 1: But that's a lot done the days up next, it's
Speaker 1: the breakfast lob morning. It's time for Donkey of the day.
Speaker 1: I'm a Democrat to being dunky of the day a
Speaker 1: little bit like a day now. I've been called a
Speaker 1: lot in my twenty three years. Yes, Donkey to Day
Speaker 1: for Tuesday, February twenty third goes to twenty nine year
Speaker 1: old Eric Spencer of Brooklyn, New York. Okay, let me
Speaker 1: tell you something. I am convinced, totally sold on the
Speaker 1: fact that humans of a certain demographic have no idea
Speaker 1: between what's criminal and what's not criminal. And it's all
Speaker 1: social media's fault. Social media has created such a false
Speaker 1: sense of reality. It's such a virtual world where feelings
Speaker 1: of facts forget what actually is. It's all about how
Speaker 1: a person feels. So if a person feels like they
Speaker 1: want to let everyone know about something illegal they did,
Speaker 1: they just do it because they feel like it. It's
Speaker 1: no consequence to their actions, and why and why why
Speaker 1: should they, you know, feel like there's consequence to their
Speaker 1: actions social media? Every day it's like the wild wild West.
Speaker 1: It's so much criminal activity happening on social media that
Speaker 1: I could easily see why people would think it's okay
Speaker 1: to show the things that they do. Okay, but guys
Speaker 1: and gals new Slash the FBI using social media for investigations. Okay,
Speaker 1: they absolutely use social media posts to help identify and
Speaker 1: track down suspects. Yes, you can't be online with a
Speaker 1: bunch of drugs. You can't be online waving guns and
Speaker 1: threatening people. Trust me, The FBI, Facebook and Instagram are
Speaker 1: just sitting around plotting on your dumb ass. And that's
Speaker 1: what happened with Eric Spencers. Do you all remember weeks
Speaker 1: ago when you saw a bunch of brothers robbing a
Speaker 1: Soho Soho channel store. What's it called? Yeah, there you
Speaker 1: go Sohole Channel? Yeah, but remember when they did that
Speaker 1: in broad daylight? Yes? Now, if you're like me and
Speaker 1: you see the words Chanelle and it translates the channel,
Speaker 1: then you act in your wage. See'all, don't go chasing Chanelle.
Speaker 1: I stick to the Puma sweatsuits and Good Fellow T
Speaker 1: shirts from Target that I'm used to. So when I
Speaker 1: saw this crime, not only did I think it was
Speaker 1: just ridiculous that they were doing this in broad daylight,
Speaker 1: I said to myself who they selling this stuff too?
Speaker 1: At a time, I'm like this, during this pandemic, you're
Speaker 1: gonna steal Channel bags and then take them around people
Speaker 1: who don't have any disposable income to buy them. I
Speaker 1: don't get it, but it's not for me to unders
Speaker 1: name because I'm not a criminal. But Eric Spencer, it
Speaker 1: was indeed one of those guys in that Channel store.
Speaker 1: What's it called now? Yeah? Well, uncle Charlot, how did
Speaker 1: he get caught? I wonder Let's go to ABC seven
Speaker 1: New York for the report. Please bring the leader of
Speaker 1: a brazen rob ray at the Chanel store in Soho
Speaker 1: in Manhattan earlier this month has been arrested in Fort Lauderdale,
Speaker 1: floor A. Prosecutors say twenty nine year old Eric Spencer
Speaker 1: of Brooklyn, when a foe man who burst into the
Speaker 1: store while it was opened on February second, grabbed nearly
Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety thousand dollars worth of goods. Spencer
Speaker 1: allegedly brandished a gun during the heist. Prosecutors say the
Speaker 1: next day, he bragged on social media that he could
Speaker 1: open a small boutique with what was stolen. Three other
Speaker 1: suspects still on the loose a hundred and ninety thousand
Speaker 1: dollars worth of Channel products. You couldn't help yourself, hunt, Eric.
Speaker 1: You know it's interesting even if there is no code
Speaker 1: in the streets anymore, and nobody is teaching these kids
Speaker 1: how to move. What happened to learning from movies? You
Speaker 1: can watch American Gangs the one time once and realize
Speaker 1: why Frank Lucas shouldn't have wore that floor length chiller coat,
Speaker 1: that fur coat and that fur hat. Okay, cost him
Speaker 1: his whole operation. Kids, if you don't have old jees
Speaker 1: around you know who telling you, who are telling you
Speaker 1: not to bring that kind of attention to yourself, then
Speaker 1: listen to the movies things that are watching American Gang
Speaker 1: still listening? What is that you? What's what you got on?
Speaker 1: That's a bad, bad, bad night suit. That's a cloud.
Speaker 1: That's a costume with a big sign on it that says,
Speaker 1: arrest me. Understand you're too loud, You're making too much noise.
Speaker 1: Look at the loudest one in the room is the
Speaker 1: weakest one in the room. I tell you though, y'all
Speaker 1: dying for attention, getting arrested for attention? What about Good Fellas?
Speaker 1: The guy did a big score. All they had to
Speaker 1: do was lay low. Danio told him, don't buy anything.
Speaker 1: Listen listening while it's your wedding, getting it's my mother
Speaker 1: talker on names. I just got mad. Stupid pulls out there.
Speaker 1: Everybody's wanting to sneak it, excited about it because you're
Speaker 1: gonna get pitch. That's why. What are you stupid? I
Speaker 1: tell you? What's did? I tell you? You? Don't buy anything, emmy,
Speaker 1: don't fight anything. Basically, what both those fictional gangsters are
Speaker 1: saying his attention is the worst drug known to man,
Speaker 1: and social media is y'all drugged choice. Now let's update
Speaker 1: all of that for this era. What Eric Spencer did. Damn.
Speaker 1: I started to say the equivalent of wearing the fur
Speaker 1: quote front row to the fight. You know, I started
Speaker 1: to say, it's the equivalent of buying something after hitting
Speaker 1: a big illegal lick. But in fact it's worse because
Speaker 1: cops can only assume you was doing something you had
Speaker 1: no business doing when you, you know, looked apart, when
Speaker 1: you look rich, but when you actually on social media
Speaker 1: with the items you stole from the channel store and
Speaker 1: you online saying and I quote so many double s
Speaker 1: items that he could open a small boutique. Now what
Speaker 1: does that mean? Rich? Negro envy? What does double see me?
Speaker 1: That's the logal she no logals CC two C I thought,
Speaker 1: I thought that you get when you get ass shots.
Speaker 1: CC never mind, listen, man, As much as I hate
Speaker 1: to see black men getting locked up, it's like y'all
Speaker 1: really be earning your charges. Okay. In life, you get
Speaker 1: what you deserve, and you get it because you deserve it.
Speaker 1: And the fact that Eric has thirty two prior arrests,
Speaker 1: including fifteen felonies, I don't think he will be seeing
Speaker 1: freedom anytime soon. And it's his fault. Okay. I don't
Speaker 1: even know to tell you young anymore, because you don't
Speaker 1: know the difference between right and wrong. You don't know
Speaker 1: the difference between good and evil. You don't know the
Speaker 1: difference between crime or no crime. I would say this
Speaker 1: is the teacher teachable moment, but y'all ain't gonna learn.
Speaker 1: Nigga's gonna nigg Please give Eric Spence to the biggest
Speaker 1: sea hall, and it's Coco. She knows it's the ccum.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what happens. I didn't hear the
Speaker 1: end of it. Can we play guests with racidists? You know?
Speaker 1: Good and well? All right, listen, I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: something though. The reason this dude got caught because vy
Speaker 1: didn't do twelve days of Christmas this year. If anybody
Speaker 1: did twelve days of Christmas this year, he'd bought all
Speaker 1: of them Channel bags and down, he'd bought all them
Speaker 1: hot Channel bags. All right, But I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: buy stole the property anymore right now anymore? Don't buy
Speaker 1: stolen property anymore, I'm said, anymore? Who back Homa? True?
Speaker 1: Back home true. I feel like if I buy something stolen,
Speaker 1: then you open up the dates for somebody to come
Speaker 1: and rob me. That's a good time. So I don't
Speaker 1: buy anything stolen. But if it's stolen from a store,
Speaker 1: and if it's stolen from a person, that's different. But
Speaker 1: if it's stolen from a star brand, yeah that's a
Speaker 1: little different. What's the difference? Whose door still losing all
Speaker 1: the star But I don't want to start. I don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about that kind of Calma, Babe, if
Speaker 1: you're listening, he got a point, babe, if you listen,
Speaker 1: you got a point. Because if it don't come from
Speaker 1: a person and it comes from a store, store got
Speaker 1: in short, That's what I'm saying. In that bag probably
Speaker 1: only cast two hundred to make, and they sell it
Speaker 1: for five downs. Now listen, bad if you listen. He
Speaker 1: got a point. I'm not encouraging stealing at all. We're
Speaker 1: just having a hypothetical hood conversation about if you buy
Speaker 1: stolen goods. Okay, if you buy stolen goods, if you
Speaker 1: buy them from somebody that stole from an actual person,
Speaker 1: I think that's bad karma. If they stole from a store. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want a store. Yeah. Does it sounded good?
Speaker 1: It sounded good? How many other people ran up in
Speaker 1: that Channel store? Charlie would saying with three other people?
Speaker 1: You want to go through the Channel store right now?
Speaker 1: You want you want that that her pies discount? What's
Speaker 1: they called? Not her pieces? Man? Now we don't buy
Speaker 1: no stolen products, man, not right? And despite the pandemic,
Speaker 1: By the way, I was reading about how her mess
Speaker 1: bags are still those birking bags are still flying. Yes,
Speaker 1: during this time. Who wouldn't know to call that her? Man?
Speaker 1: I see that, and I see herms r mas just
Speaker 1: the name of it. All right, Well, thank you for
Speaker 1: that dog to day up. Next, we have Malcolm X's
Speaker 1: daughter joining us. Her name is a normal pronounced this
Speaker 1: name so wrong? Yes, ELIASA Shabaz she we'll be talking
Speaker 1: to her next she has a new book. All we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk to her when we come back, so don't move.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club, corning the Breakfast Club. Well, good morning,
Speaker 1: how are you today? Pretty good? How about you? Blessed
Speaker 1: Black and Holly favorite? Every time I see you you glowing,
Speaker 1: like just glowing or on a thousand. Okay, well maybe
Speaker 1: that's living right. Yeah, absolutely, But we obviously are here
Speaker 1: today to talk about your young adult novel, The Awakening
Speaker 1: of Malcolm X. And there's been a lot of new
Speaker 1: developments also, just you know, as a blade, I saw
Speaker 1: this letter that was released from ray Wood, the officer
Speaker 1: FBI agent that went under cover that actually framed and
Speaker 1: was responsible for Malcolm X working in conjection to get
Speaker 1: him assassinated. So what were your thoughts when you saw that? Well,
Speaker 1: Angel I can say that I'm just as curious as
Speaker 1: you are uncovering the truth. We always wanted to know
Speaker 1: what the truth was surrounding my father's assassination. We know
Speaker 1: that he posted you know, great danger, and so it's
Speaker 1: you know, we're just as curious as you are to
Speaker 1: uncovering the truth. Absolutely, you know it must still be
Speaker 1: difficult to hear all these things coming up too, because
Speaker 1: that's your dad. You know. For a lot of us,
Speaker 1: he's a hero and he's such a great figure to us.
Speaker 1: But for you, that's your father. So I know it's
Speaker 1: not easy to have to hear these things coming back
Speaker 1: up over and over again. Well, I think whatever you
Speaker 1: do in the dark always comes to light. And you know,
Speaker 1: immediately I think of my mother, and I think, you
Speaker 1: know of this woman who had her home fire bomb
Speaker 1: on the evening of Valentine's Day as she lay asleep
Speaker 1: with her husband, that a bomb would be thrown into
Speaker 1: the nursery where her babies, where my sisters and I slept,
Speaker 1: and then that a week later she would witness the
Speaker 1: horrific assassination of her husband. And in spite of all
Speaker 1: of those challenges, you know, she raised her six daughters
Speaker 1: with just so much love in a in a very
Speaker 1: small bubble, and made sure that we understood who our
Speaker 1: father was, who her husband was, so that we didn't
Speaker 1: grow up feeling that our father left us, but we
Speaker 1: knew that he loved us and would be proud of
Speaker 1: any kinds of accomplishments we were making. And if we
Speaker 1: didn't do something right, she would say, your father would
Speaker 1: be disappointed. So you know, I always take my hat
Speaker 1: off to this woman. She continually gave and she instilled
Speaker 1: the values that just as one must drink water, one
Speaker 1: must give back. And you know, so from my mother,
Speaker 1: a young woman in her twenties to experience that, for me,
Speaker 1: you know, that is probably the most difficult part. And
Speaker 1: so yes, we are very curious and definitely want to
Speaker 1: uncover the truth. I was reading that you were saying
Speaker 1: that um, that you were saying that your mom didn't
Speaker 1: really speak much about the things that he did and
Speaker 1: you had to get a lot of that knowledge from
Speaker 1: his autobiography. Is that true? My mother focused on instilling
Speaker 1: love and making sure our identity was intact, so that
Speaker 1: when we would leave her, you know, under her wing,
Speaker 1: that we would be able to navigate through society's injustices.
Speaker 1: And so we didn't learn about the icon Malcolm X,
Speaker 1: because then you had to introduce hate. And if my
Speaker 1: mother was, you know, a witness to the brutality this surveillance,
Speaker 1: you know all of the challenges that her husband and
Speaker 1: she endured. Certainly she wanted to protect her babies and
Speaker 1: and and of course even to witness his assassination. You know,
Speaker 1: there's a picture of my mother, she was a registered
Speaker 1: nurse at the time, with my father with all these
Speaker 1: bullet holes in his chest and she's undoing his tie,
Speaker 1: you know, to help. I could only imagine how traumatic
Speaker 1: that had to have been. So my mother focused on love, um, kindness, joy,
Speaker 1: all the things that my father I wanted for um
Speaker 1: any oppressed people to to have, you know, the opportunity
Speaker 1: to know that they're worthy of love, self love, and
Speaker 1: you know, respect for for our humanity, you know, Queen
Speaker 1: Queen Ayasha, you know um on the anniversary of his death,
Speaker 1: how do you feel? How do how do you how
Speaker 1: do you more? Well, you know it's not really easy,
Speaker 1: but you know I continue in the tradition of what
Speaker 1: my mother always did, and my mother always had, you know,
Speaker 1: we always had a memorial celebration. It was a celebration
Speaker 1: of life for our father, and it was at Abbasini
Speaker 1: and Baptist Church for a very long time, and then
Speaker 1: you know, now we have it at the Shaba Center.
Speaker 1: So you know, we continue in that tradition. And fortunately,
Speaker 1: because of this pandemic and virtual programming, we had people
Speaker 1: from all around the world, and so that's you know,
Speaker 1: a great opportunity to fellowship in that way. You know,
Speaker 1: I love the idea of a young adult novelty Awakening
Speaker 1: of Malcolm X, which is which is spotlighting Malcolm's formative
Speaker 1: adolescent years in prison, because I think it's very important
Speaker 1: to really dive into that, that that whole process of
Speaker 1: who Malcolm was. Because I often say this generation wouldn't
Speaker 1: let Malcolm Little become Malcolm X because of his whole
Speaker 1: Cancel coaching thing. So what can this generation learn from
Speaker 1: your father's adolescent years in prison? Well, first of all,
Speaker 1: that you know, I wanted to make sure that my
Speaker 1: father's story was accurate. That his father was the chapter
Speaker 1: president of the Marcus Garvey Movement, the Universal Legro Improvement
Speaker 1: Association in the nineteen twenties, which commanded millions of followers worldwide.
Speaker 1: That his mother was the recording secretary for this organization,
Speaker 1: and that his family was targeted, and that his father
Speaker 1: was lynched by the Black Legion, which was a splintered
Speaker 1: group from the KKK, and that his mother was put
Speaker 1: into an institution. His father purchased land that was reserved
Speaker 1: for whites only during the height of Jim crow. And
Speaker 1: once they lynched his father and put his mother away
Speaker 1: and separated Malcolm and his siblings, they took the land.
Speaker 1: And so Malcolm as a youth was running from his identity,
Speaker 1: running from the pains that he experienced during Jim Crow.
Speaker 1: And when he finally was arrested, his family had the
Speaker 1: opportunity to encourage him to read again. And one of
Speaker 1: the things we discover is that Malcolm was always bright, smart.
Speaker 1: All of these values that we see in Malcolm was
Speaker 1: mostly because of the foundation that his parents and family provided.
Speaker 1: And so it speaks to the importance of us smart,
Speaker 1: forward thinking adults to be the village for our children
Speaker 1: when we know they're in pain, when we know that
Speaker 1: their identity is you know, questionable. And so while in jail,
Speaker 1: my father continued to read. He studied the dictionary, not
Speaker 1: so he can learn how to write. He studied the
Speaker 1: dictionary because he was a star debater on the debating
Speaker 1: team of the prison that debated against Ivy League schools.
Speaker 1: And he studied so he could understand the etymology, the
Speaker 1: root of words, because he always wanted to be prepared.
Speaker 1: And you know, there are so many interesting things about
Speaker 1: the awakening of Malcolm X. I had the opportunity to
Speaker 1: work with Tiffany D. Jackson, who is a phenomenal young
Speaker 1: adult novelist, and you know, we wanted to focus on
Speaker 1: the humanity of inmates. We know they are approximately three
Speaker 1: million people in our nation's prisons today. But do we
Speaker 1: know that the United States spent eighty one billion taxpayer
Speaker 1: dollars on correction facilities, not education, That after school programs
Speaker 1: went our correction facilities, and that since nineteen seventies, the
Speaker 1: incarcerated population has increased by seven hundred percent. And this
Speaker 1: is what's happening to our children. And so each of
Speaker 1: us has to ask ourselves, are we going to be
Speaker 1: a part of the problem by doing nothing and pretending
Speaker 1: that we don't understand these things? Are we going to
Speaker 1: be a part of the solution by rolling up our
Speaker 1: sleeves and demanding change. We have more with Eliasa Shabaz.
Speaker 1: When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club, corn wnting.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Schlomagne, the Gay. We
Speaker 1: are to Breakfast Club. We're still talking with Malcolm X's daughter,
Speaker 1: Iliyasa Shabaz Sheloman. You know, even though the book is
Speaker 1: historical fiction. Do you see parallels to today's current event? Absolutely?
Speaker 1: And that was really the purpose of this book because
Speaker 1: you know, the same systemic issues are here, the same
Speaker 1: I mean, it's all nothing has changed, and it's not
Speaker 1: going to change until we do something. You know, we
Speaker 1: have to learn to control our own narrative. And we
Speaker 1: can't sit back and just think that someone's going to
Speaker 1: do something for us. My father said only a fool
Speaker 1: would sit back and allow his enemy to teach his children.
Speaker 1: If we want change, we have to be willing to
Speaker 1: do the work ourselves. And I think that now there
Speaker 1: is a multiracial movement that's driving our nation towards a
Speaker 1: more civilized space because of our young people, that a
Speaker 1: synthetic identity is being born. Our society is moving forward,
Speaker 1: and bigotry and all its ugly hate is losing, and
Speaker 1: a new error has yet to define itself. And so
Speaker 1: we have to, you know, surmise that cheaters lose. Character wins,
Speaker 1: moral character wins, and that should be a lesson for
Speaker 1: our young people. What would you advise people to say,
Speaker 1: because we talk about change, but you know, Donald Trump's
Speaker 1: in office, Joe biden In's office, do we see him
Speaker 1: helping us, and we say, we have to do for ourselves.
Speaker 1: What would you consider us to do for ourselves? You know,
Speaker 1: we have to get our collective leaders together. There's not
Speaker 1: just one leader, but coming together, organizing, strategizing. We see
Speaker 1: all these dynamic young people. I mean I watched Angela
Speaker 1: Rye and Brittany Packnett and many of the Congressional Black
Speaker 1: Caucus members. I think that it's important for us to
Speaker 1: come together in this collective leadership and organize amongst ourselves
Speaker 1: to figure out what our strategies are. And that's you
Speaker 1: know a lot of what my father did in the
Speaker 1: nineteen fifties when young people were marching, protesting, demonstrating. My
Speaker 1: father came along and said, look, we demand our human rights.
Speaker 1: As your brother, we demand our human rights ordained by God.
Speaker 1: He was willing to do the work, and look, we
Speaker 1: all organized to do so. And so it's important for
Speaker 1: us to first make sure that we understand, you know,
Speaker 1: these assassinate all these different divisive tactics, you know that
Speaker 1: have continually happened, and ensure that they don't happen again.
Speaker 1: That if there are eight billion, six hundred million people
Speaker 1: in the world and eighty percent of us are people
Speaker 1: of color. We should be able to come together and
Speaker 1: figure out how we can get this boot or for
Speaker 1: our necks. What does by any means necessary mean to you?
Speaker 1: Because I think a lot of times when people here
Speaker 1: that phrase, they automatically think, wake up with violence on
Speaker 1: the mind, Like you know what I mean? What did
Speaker 1: that mean? You? By any means necessary means that Again,
Speaker 1: if we're talking about collective leadership, then we have to
Speaker 1: know that we are worthy of self love, that we
Speaker 1: are worthy of equality education, that we are worthy to
Speaker 1: participate in mainstream society. And so it means that we
Speaker 1: have to invest in ourselves just as my father did.
Speaker 1: My father read everything that you could imagine, and he
Speaker 1: refused to allow anyone to pigeonhole him. And and you know,
Speaker 1: and so I would say the same thing for us,
Speaker 1: that we have to be diligent with the same kinds
Speaker 1: of um, you know, the same kinds of examples. You know,
Speaker 1: I want, I got a couple more questions where we go?
Speaker 1: But um, you know, you mentioned a couple of Ostrong's
Speaker 1: voices earlier. You mentioned Brittany Packet and Angela Rye. I
Speaker 1: wonder why it feels like the sisters are on the
Speaker 1: front lines and more vocal than the brothers. I would
Speaker 1: throw Tamika Mallory and as well, like why why do
Speaker 1: you why why do you think that is right now? Um? Well,
Speaker 1: I think this has been something. You know, this has
Speaker 1: been historical. You know, the black woman. You know, we
Speaker 1: look at you know, just like you said, the women
Speaker 1: that you mentioned, or even Stacy Abrams who delivered you know,
Speaker 1: almost a million votes to help us win, you know,
Speaker 1: half of this democratic victory. Just think who would be
Speaker 1: in office right now. But I think it's important to
Speaker 1: understand that black power is not exclusionary. It simply says
Speaker 1: that we are going to be at the table, and
Speaker 1: that is something that we can't forget. My father said
Speaker 1: that a society is measured by the progress of its women.
Speaker 1: When you teach a young man, you teach a community.
Speaker 1: But when you teach a woman, you raise And I
Speaker 1: think that that we have seen such evidence of that. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: Um I do want to talk to you about chapter
Speaker 1: four two though, because, like you know, you use one
Speaker 1: of his quotes with a common goal of twenty two
Speaker 1: million African Americans respect as human beings and we can
Speaker 1: never get civil rights in America until our human rights
Speaker 1: are first restored. You know when when when you read
Speaker 1: that quote, how how you think he would view that
Speaker 1: that that goal in twenty twenty one because I always
Speaker 1: say that now, like we're fighting for civilities, but they
Speaker 1: don't even respect this is humans. Well, that's right, and
Speaker 1: that is one of the reasons why he was assassinated.
Speaker 1: You know, he internationalized first the struggle for black people worldwide,
Speaker 1: because remember in the nineteen fifties, we didn't even know
Speaker 1: that we were, you know, of the African diaspora. We
Speaker 1: didn't know that blacks in the Philippines, blacks in Australia,
Speaker 1: blacks in China, blacks in the America's, blacks on the continent.
Speaker 1: We didn't even know we were all experiencing the same oppression.
Speaker 1: So he internationalized that struggle for us so we understood
Speaker 1: that we came from Africa, we have a land base.
Speaker 1: And then introducing a human rights agenda to the civil
Speaker 1: rights movement so that we could take, you know, be
Speaker 1: strategic about this and take this, you know, to the
Speaker 1: Supreme to the United Nations Supreme Court and challenged those
Speaker 1: for violating our human rights. Yes, I think that is
Speaker 1: extremely important. And when we look at the Constitution, when
Speaker 1: we when we look at all of these um documents
Speaker 1: that were uh created, you know, we'll see that, you know,
Speaker 1: we weren't included as as human beings that we were.
Speaker 1: We were just property. And so we have to correct history.
Speaker 1: And again that is addressing our education curriculum. And uh
Speaker 1: you know, yeah what the Awakening of Malcolm X and
Speaker 1: novel is out right now by il Yasha Shabaz. Yes,
Speaker 1: amazing read that. I really did enjoy reading that. I
Speaker 1: was like, um, I think for a lot of kids
Speaker 1: in school or even like somebody my age, you know,
Speaker 1: it wasn't it was a great read. So and you listen,
Speaker 1: you know, every time I hear myself on the radio
Speaker 1: or doing some kind of interview, I sound like I'm
Speaker 1: so I'm just being so passionate, and in retrospect, I
Speaker 1: always say that I want to, you know, tone it down,
Speaker 1: but it's difficult to tone it down when we look
Speaker 1: at these you know, horrific conditions that we are forced
Speaker 1: to live. And I just hope that all of our
Speaker 1: young people, you know, remain strong, remain focused, that you
Speaker 1: don't look at these or don't fall for these divisive
Speaker 1: tactics because at the end of the day, they you know,
Speaker 1: they are just that they're divisive, and they prevent us
Speaker 1: from accomplishing our goals. And it is extremely important with
Speaker 1: all of those great people that we have, all those
Speaker 1: shoulders that we stand upon, that we are able, you know,
Speaker 1: to to win. That's right. Well, thank you for joining
Speaker 1: us so much, man, and we appreciate you and everything
Speaker 1: that you're doing. And pick up a book right now
Speaker 1: and thank you, thank you so much, thank you very much.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the rum as somebody's home. Listen, Oh
Speaker 1: go God, breakfast club, where are you doing, envy? Bobby
Speaker 1: Schmurder is officially out of jail. I know there were
Speaker 1: a lot of false alarms for months and people were
Speaker 1: saying he was about to get out, and we were like, okay,
Speaker 1: let's wait till he's really home. But he is officially
Speaker 1: out of jail. So congratulations to Bobby Schmurder. Everybody's excited.
Speaker 1: We've seen the footage of them in the private jet
Speaker 1: going and then we said we saw him on FaceTime.
Speaker 1: So now he's out of jail. Happy for that, brother,
Speaker 1: and I hope he gets rewarded for him doing what
Speaker 1: they say people should do in that situation. He didn't.
Speaker 1: He didn't snitch. Nope, right, he did his time like
Speaker 1: a g So I want to see how hip hop
Speaker 1: street culture rewards him for that. I wonder if he's
Speaker 1: still signed to Epic Records or did they release him
Speaker 1: when he got locked up, because I'm sure whoever what
Speaker 1: he gets told, he's gonna have a big bag. Some
Speaker 1: label's gonna be off from a lot of money to
Speaker 1: do a deal, and and I hope he gets all
Speaker 1: that money. All right, Well, welcome home Bobby's murder. Now,
Speaker 1: let's talk about this high school football player. He was
Speaker 1: talking trash to Cam Newton. That video went viral. Your
Speaker 1: I don't mean that it wasn't funny. It was hilarious.
Speaker 1: It was hilarious, suf funny. Okay, you had that even
Speaker 1: that man's camp. Man, that man put on the camp

Speaker 1: why seth Owens apologize. He said, First and foremost, I
Speaker 1: want to express my deepest apologies to Cam Newton, my
Speaker 1: entire organization, my coaches for my actions at the tournament
Speaker 1: this past week, and I did not intend for it
Speaker 1: to get as far as it did. First, I would
Speaker 1: like to start off by saying, my parents never taught
Speaker 1: me to be disrespectful to people as a football player.
Speaker 1: I let my competitors side get the best of me
Speaker 1: and it was a huge miscommunication. So he said that
Speaker 1: he realizes a lot of people took it as disrespect.
Speaker 1: I never meant to humiliate and let anyone down, and
Speaker 1: he said he's very appreciative for even being allowed to
Speaker 1: be a part of that community. Well Cam should have
Speaker 1: said to him with Luke young Ken, you hear at
Speaker 1: my camp because you want to be in the positions
Speaker 1: that I've been in Yes, I'm a free agent now,
