20
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: say that he just didn't use that particular phrase. Yes,

21
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: he was very polite. Kodak is Kodak is a Kodak

22
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: is a good, good person. I believe he's just young man.

23
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: Young people make mistakes, as we all did when we

24
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: were young. And imagine having access to all of that

25
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: money and all of those resources and everything else at

26
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: that age. You know, since he was seventeen, he hasn't

27
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: been out of jail for one consecutive year, Like he's

28
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: been in and out, in and out since he was

29
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: seventeen and before that, Julie and all kinds of you know,

30
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: you got to think about all the trauma that people

31
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: go through, and the guards beating him up in jail

32
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: and everything that happened. But he's gonna get really in

33
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: depth about a lot of those things. And that's why

34
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: I've committed my life to him helping helping, you know,

35
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 1: people in general, hill with especially young black men, because

36
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: if we don't break them generational curses, who will absolutely. Yeah,

37
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: it's some parts in there that I thought, like, oh, man,

38
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: you might want to cry. Man. We've been passing trauma

39
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: off his culture for so damn long. But this is

40
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: the first generation I feel that has the luxury of

41
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: actually healing, so we'll be okay. But yes, it was

42
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: a whirlwind of days for me, and then and then

43
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club went viral yesterday, but we'll talk about

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: that later. For Envy and be calling Kanye clown like

00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: the real conversation because what what what? That is what

53
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,359
Speaker 1: your statements were rooted and we would never be able

54
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: to share because it's not our story to tell, correct,

55
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So if if people knew,

Speaker 1: He also is going to be speaking today about that.

91
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club.

92
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: Good morning, Da Da van Van. As much as we

93
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: played his record field on the Worst Men of the Morning,

94
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: everybody is dj Envy Angel Ye Charlomine the guy. We

95
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: are to Breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news.

96
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: Where were starting you, Well, the last US military planes

97
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: have left Afghanistan, and here is General Frank Mackenzie, who

98
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: is the commander of US Central Command, speaking at the

99
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: Pentagon about not getting everyone out even though the last

100
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 1: planes have left. Look, there's a lot of hard break

101
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: associated with this departure. We did not get everybody out

102
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: that we wanted to get out, But I think if

103
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: would stayed another ten days, Louis, we wouldn't have gotten

104
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: everybody out that we wanted to get out, and there

105
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: still would have been people who would have been disappointed

106
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: with that. It's a tough situation, but I want to

107
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: emphasize again that simply because we have left, that doesn't

108
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: mean the opportunities for both Americans that are in Afghanistan

109
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: that want to leave and Afghans who want to leave,

110
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: they will not be denied that opportunity. I think our

111
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: Department of State is going to work that very hard.

112
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: In the days when we said I hope they really

113
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: got everybody out, I pretty nobody misdual slice. Well, they

114
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: said there's a small number of Americans in the two hundred,

115
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: and they said it's like the number that's closer to

116
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: one hundred Americans who remain in Afghanistan and went to leave.

117
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: Now they still I thought they had to be out

118
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: about the thirty first. I mean, they were trying to

119
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: get everybody out. I don't know why there's still some

120
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: people that haven't been able to get there. They said

121
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 1: the last five flights didn't even have any US citizens

122
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: on there. Let me find out, America Book, Spirit Airlines

123
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: Flace you shot up all right. In addition to that,

124
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: he also talked about the threat of terror. Now, how

125
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: high is that? The terry threat is going to be

126
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: very high. But I think what we'll do is we

127
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: will work with the Taliban and work with the next

128
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: government of Afghanistan, Afghanistan, whatever his characterization is going to be,

129
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 1: in order to ensure that our citizens are protected and

130
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: that they have an opportunity to leave. As you know,

131
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: we still hold a variety of significant leverage over whatever

132
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: future government exists in Cobble, and I have no doubt

133
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: that the Department of State will fully exercise that leverage

134
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: if you have any confident in their ability to secure

135
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: the city. Right now, the Taliban, I think they're going

136
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: to be challenged to secure the city. Yeah, I'm on

137
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: high alert, you know, the next couple of weeks because

138
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: it's the twenty year anniversary in nine to eleven in

139
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: America is very vulnerable right now. You just never know

140
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: if they wanted to do something, this would be a

141
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: good opportunity for them, right And video from Kabo Airport

142
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: does show that they were celebrating. The Taliban was celebrating

143
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: and saying this victory belongs to us all and congratulating

144
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: the people of Afghanistan. So they're looking at this as

145
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: a victory a war that lasted almost twenty years. I

146
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: mean it is the ops is gone. The ops fled

147
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: the scene. So yeah, and what did so he said

148
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: they're going to actually talk to the leader of the Taliban,

149
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: but they said they have to engage, and so it's

150
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: no way around engaging to have to deal with them.

151
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: And you know, isis K is like the Taliban is

152
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: saying that they're not the way that they used to be,

153
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: the draconian measures that they used to take. But a

154

Speaker 1: man Emby. I don't like Kanye either. Man. I got

190
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: a lot of flack for not being like a Kaya.

191
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: It's just music. But I think he's a clown food.

192
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: I think he's a most overrated person in hip hop. No, no,

193
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: he's definitely. He's not overrated. And the artist, he's a great,

194
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: great styles. I just don't like some of the things

195
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: he does outside of music, and I would explain him

196
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more later. Button. I think his body

197
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: of work, as much as people want to compare to

198
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: other bodies work, it doesn't stand up. Yo. You're yo, Rick,

199
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: Now you bugging like Kanye does a lot of wild antics.

200
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: But those first five albums, actually first six albums are classic.

201
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: No first six, bro, let's break it down. Then late

202
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: late registration, Yeah, Collins drop out, late registration, graduation and

203
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: maybe and maybe and maybe maybe My Beautiful Dog, Twisted

204
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: Fantasy and everything else. You're out of your mind? Are you?

205
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: My Beautiful Dog Twisted Fantasy was the best album of

206
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: from two thousand and ten to two thousand and twenty. Stop.

207
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm in a decade rap wise, no way to best

208
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: rap album oct This is my beautiful doc. It's a

209
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: lot of things we can debate about Kanye was his

210
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: music is in one of them, guys. And no, he's

211

213
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: talk Nikati about Kanye's music. Kanye delivers h No, Jesus

214
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: was trash. Jesus was definitely trash. First album, even this

215
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 1: trash his last two albums. Jesus was one of the six,

216
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: Wasn't I'm talking about college dropout, late registration, graduation? Yeah, graduation, listen,

217
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,439

224
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: Let's not be ridiculous. This is an argument of having

00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: all It's a ridiculous are there having people on your side?

226
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: This is a ridiculous argument. Like we can argue about

227
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: Kanye's antics, we can argue about how he treats people,

228
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: we can argue that all that type of stuff, but

00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: understand how you feel about Kanye, all right, But I

251
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: had a whole discussion on YouTube with a couple of

252
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: y'all followers letting them know I don't know what y'all

253
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: were expecting out It is Kanye album. Kanye is the

254
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: street he doing. I g models him right, excuse me,

255
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: see to god, I gotta quote you. You said that

256
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: you are free hid rappers in their age. That rap

257
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: about real life stuck. This man was depressed. This man

258
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: was broken. This man chose to express his read through

259
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: his musical masterpiece. I love the album and I'm a

260
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: huge Kanye fan. I'm four eleven, but I'm six eight

261
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: for Kanye. Oh. I mean, that's why my music is subjective.

262
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: I'm not late. Music made you fail away because you

263
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: could relate to it exactly. And I feel like Djay envied, Okay,

264
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: your job is a dj T how to let the

265
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: music speak. I understand that you got be And as

266
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: a Kanye fan, I do not agree with everything my

267
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: man does, but that album, I feel like that album,

268
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: with his vulnerability, we saw him go through all this

269
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: stuff with Danza dying and just falling out in the media.

270
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: I think you should give it a chance. Don't call

271
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: him in a clown. This was him showing his emotions

272
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: about his mom. Come on, man, you die, give it

273
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: a chance. I was ready to fund you. Let your

274
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: car show down to mine. You can come and see me.

275
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: We could have a conversation. But I don't. I don't

276
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: think it is Kanye's music is clownish. I just think

277
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: him as a person in what he does behind the

278
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: scenes is clownish. I never I never disrespect that man's music.

279
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I actually love Kanye's music, So it has

280
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: nothing to do with Kanye as an artist. It has

281
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: to do with Kanye as a person. But listen, that's

282
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: like like Black. My daughter loves Kodak. Okay, y'all were

283
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: just talking about him. I'm not a huge Kodek band.

284
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: A lot of stuff you do, I can't agree with.

285
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: My daughter loves this music. Girl, that's fine. But I

286
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: understand that code. It does make good music regardless of

287
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: this antic. You gotta you gotta let the music feat.

288
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: You gotta give it a chance. Don't don't shelve it

289
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: just because you don't. I'm listen. I'm listening to the

290
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: whole album. I think, and I listen just personally, I

291
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: think the album is kind of lackluster. He got some

292
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: joints on there. I really like though, Like I love

293
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 1: to join with Kanye and Westside, I love to join

294
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: with the Locks and Jail Electronica. I love to join

295
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: it with Roddy Rich. But I mean it just I

296
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: don't know. It's our Forty some minutes is a long

297
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: time to me. A good album an album if you like,

298
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: like six or seven songs on this album, I feel

299
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: like that makes it a good album. Now in the

300
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: hours an hour, forty minutes. Yeah, but I do feel

301
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: like there's six really really great songs on there, and

302
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: that's something that I could listen to and then as

303
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: if you I don't like but yeah, I just think

304
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: you should have shorten it twelve songs. There's a great

305
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: album within that hour forty eight minutes. And I've heard

306
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: that yesterday and I completely agree because I'm not gonna lie.

307
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: I was like an hour of forty minutes, but do

308
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: I expect three hunting the shows that was changing up features.

309
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: But dj Vy, you had me at worked boiling. I

310
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,560

311
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: oh God, but that's what happened. But but but that's

312
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: what happens when people don't know the whole story and

313
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: it's not our story to tell. And I'm a listen

Speaker 1: Look at me, goodness, I did not look at it.

00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: You did. You definitely did kink that. Oh my goodness,

336
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: nouth opening everything. Have you been married, I've been with

00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: with your woman? Twenty six years? You definitely ate some booty.

339
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: That's not what gang is about today. Think about the

340
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: reverse it. I've been told y'all, reverse it. We talked

344
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: about our show, Drink Champs. We love that show, right,

345
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: And Trick Daddy was recently on and he discussed the topic.

346
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: And we all know him from the Eat a Booty gang,

347
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: and I feel like this has been said before, but

348
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: he's very blatant about the fact that he likes to

349
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: uh eat the booty. Okay, no, not not, he likes

350
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: to do that. It gets done to him. All right,

351
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: listen to this conversation. So it's the eat a booty game.

352
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 1: I'm building a franchise up now. Now I'm getting the

353
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: women to support the eaton booty game. Wait wait, wait,

354
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: wait wait who when you say women to support the

355
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: eat booty game? You say women is eating the booty? Yeah?

356
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: Wait what, I don't know what You don't have your

357
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: legs in the air. Though, it depends how many times

358
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: a trick gonna go viold for this same thing. Every

359
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: time he says this, y'all act like it's the first time.

360
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: I don't know why people still shame this where you

361
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: don't get it. And I feel like both of y'all

362
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 1: have said the same thing up here too. So it's

363
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: tank So a bunch of other people like y'all got

364
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: to stop king shaming people for what they like to

365
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: do in the bedroom. Number one, he's being funny. And

366
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: number two, it can absolutely be described just getting you

367
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 1: say that. You know you cannot say it can be

368
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: described as that. We say, yeah, we say eat the

369
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: poom poom, So what else could you call it? I

372
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't matter. That's my business in the bedroom,

373
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But y'all got to stop

374
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: king shaming people for stuff like that. And why do

375
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: y'all act like this is the first time. Every time

376
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: trick Daddy says it, I said times he asked topics

377
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,160

Speaker 1: you put a vibrating thing, a vibrating you know, To

385
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: be clear, Charlemagne didn't start man escaping until the Breakfast Class.

386
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: Yes it is. You didn't. I started man escaping when

387
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: we were doing MTV's Guy Code because the first episode

388
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: of MTV's Guy Called was about man escaping. I never

389
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: had heard of such a thing, but wasn't it ding

390
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: also while you were on the Breakfast Club, because we

391
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: had a whole conversation about it and you said you

392
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: never did it. It was all mtvs Guy Cold. But

393
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: you do remember you said you didn't used to man escape, Yeah,

394
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: but had nothing to do with Breakfast Club. Right. That

395
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 1: was literally the first episode of MTV's Guy Called ten

396
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: years ago. Okay, well yes, man escape, yeah, as you should.

397
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: All right. Now, Drake has went to Instagram to unveil

398
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 1: some more certified loverboy merch. Now y'all saw that uh

399
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: picture that he had of all the little emojis of

400
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: the pregnant women, and people were confused about what that is.

401
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 1: So what that is? And it was explained is, um, basically,

402
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: well I don't think that's the cover art, but they're

403
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 1: saying the pregnant it's not the cover. They said, that's

404
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: the pregnant emojis are away for saying that the album

405
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: is nine months late? Who is they who said this?

406
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: So that is um According to Obio sound Well, Elliott

407
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: Wilson confirmed they said it was album and DJ Academics

408
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: actually spoke to Drake and Drake said, it's the album cover.

409
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: Do I think it's the actual album cover? Probably not,

410
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: but it gets to people talking, not to mention who

411
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: gives a damn bought album covers anymore. I was thinking

412
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: the same thing. Nobody ever looks at the album covers

413
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: like that's how you just listen to the album. It's not.

414
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: Danda has no cover. Literally, it's nothing. It's it's just

415
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: a black box. People thought it was clever, but yes,

416
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is the cover art or not.

417
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: But they're saying that this could be, you know, just

418
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 1: because the album was nine months late so he's pregnant,

419
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 1: or it could be, as Elliott Wilson said, the cover

420
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: and you know, like you said, DJ academic said, he

421
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: asked Drake, and Drake said that, yes, this really is

422
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: a cover. It wouldn't be the last time Drake did

423
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: a basic gas cover. I mean, if you're reading this

424
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: too late was a basic gas cover. But then that

425
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: became like a hit me. I love the way that

426
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: little Nozas actually hijacked that cover for his own too,

427
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: and he put a bunch of emojis of pregnant men

428
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: all right now. Drake has also shared some new images

429
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: of Certified lover Boy and Nike. The collap that they

430
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 1: have and with together, something other than me has got

431
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: to give. That's one of the shirts said. One says,

432
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 1: should have said you love me today because tomorrow is

433
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: a new day. One says, I don't miss let alone

434
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: miss you the hell some t shirts. It's a lot

435
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: of writing, a lot of words on there, but yes,

436
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: they managed to fit it all in. You gotta at

437
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: least wear a double excel to fit all the words in.

438
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 1: All right now. Jr. Smith is sharing his college journey

439
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: and everybody's really excited for him, and so he posted

440
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,239
Speaker 1: on social media. English is my first language, but these

441
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: papers though. Joined the study group for my African American

442
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Studies class on Groupie and my classmates don't think it's

443
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 1: me finish my English homework. Dope short story about a

444
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: little girl with six brothers in Seeking Parents Approval Dope

445
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: reading first tutoring session in the books I really liked

446
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: missus Burke extremely helpful. So he said, I hated school

447
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: growing up, and I knew this would be a challenge.

448
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: But that's not going to discourage me one second. You

449
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: have to be able to buckle down and lock into

450
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 1: new journeys and challenges coming in your life, observe, learn

451
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 1: and adapt. I'm happy for j. Smith. So he's at

452
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: North Carolina A and T. And I saw somebody posted

453
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: a picture like, I can't believe that J. R. Smith

454
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: is in my class, in my eight am class. So

455
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: that's good. I mean, I just I wish that I

456
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 1: took advantage of a lot of the classes that were

457
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: in college. When I was in college, I was just

458
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: trying to get out. Well, you all wish he did,

459
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 1: and I wish I had took advantage of a lot

460
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: of the stuff that I should have, whether it's accounting classes,

461
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: in finance classes, things that I had to figure out

462
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: later on. I wish I took advantage of it. I

463
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: just respect the fact that he's not afraid to continue

464
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: to still grow and learn, you know, and try new things,

465
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: because I mean, he's a multi millionaire. He don't have

466
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: to go back to school. But the fact that he

467
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: wants to make himself better. I respected to drop on

468
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: a clues BONX to Jall Smith. Demit my favorite Carlage class.

469
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: I think that I ever took was screenwriting. That was

470
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: a I did photography in college. So it's fine. You

471
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: can take classes that you really care about and that

472
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: interests you and learn more. Yeah. I mean, you know,

473
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 1: I as a doctorate, As a person with a doctorate degree,

474

476
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: you spend telling him? Don't don't worry about that. You

477
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: know this is before doctor and that is your rumor report.

478
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: He is doctor. I'm still a doctor, you are. Okay,

Speaker 1: still don't have power in Louisiana. When are they going

491
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: cej Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy we are to

492
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: breakfast Club's getting some front page news. Where we starting you, Well,

493
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: let's start in Louisiana. Hurricane Ida has left catastrophic damage.

494
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: We already told you guys that one person was confirmed

495
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: to have been killed. Well, now they said there's a

496
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: second storm related death that was reported following Hurricane Ida.

497
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: The first as a tree that fell on someone. That

498
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 1: the next one is a man who drowned after attempting

499
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: to drive his vehicle through floodwater. They said, right now,

500
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: his age is unknown. I know a lot of people

501
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: are trying to locate their loved ones as these rescue

502
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: efforts are continuing. About one point one million customers still

503
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: do not have power in Louisiana. They said. Electricity is

504
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: practically non existent for most people. They're saying some of

505
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: these outages could last more than three weeks, by the way,

506
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: so that's really imagine having to go three weeks they

507
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: said three hospitals across the state have already been evacuated,

508
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: with the fourth hospital and the process of being evacuated.

509
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: And according to the governor, there's also eighteen water system

510
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: outages impacting more than over three hundred thousand people and

511
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: fourteen boil water advisories that impacts more than three hundred

512
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 1: and twenty nine thousand people across Louisiana. That's hard. Well,

513
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 1: that's got to suck in two thwenty one. I mean,

514
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: I went through something like that in the eighties with

515
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: Hurricane h going Charleston, South Carolina. But they have to

516
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: experience that in twenty twenty one, like that should not

517
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: be the case for anybody to be without power for

518
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: three weeks, right, And Joe Biden has addressed the damage

519
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 1: caused by Hurricane Ida, and he is offering federal support

520
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: to the states who are impacted. Here's what he had

521
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: to say. And we've deployed more two hundred generators and

522
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: we're already moved into the region. They've been moved in

523
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: ahead of time, and the administrator, Griswell and her team

524
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: at FEMA is working getting more of those into the area.

525
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: And we're in close contact with local electric providers to

526
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: see what they need. They're all private providers. We don't

527
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: control that, but we're doing all we can to minimize

528
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: the amount of time it's going to take to get

529
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 1: power back up for everyone in the region. They said

530
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: they've moved more than two hundred generators into the region

531
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: and they're working to send in more. I actually talk

532
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: to some people that are in Louisiana right now, how

533
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: difficult it is to even try to get gas, to

534
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: be able to drive anywhere from a gas station. How

535
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 1: hot it is and there's no power, so you don't

536
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: have air conditioning, you don't have lights. So people are

537
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 1: trying to figure out. People don't want to leave either.

538
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,719
Speaker 1: If you're there right now, I know some people are

539
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: trying to stay, but you know, it's a difficult situation.

540
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: I want to own under kid how they can prevent

541
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: those things for happening, because you look at other neighborhoods, like,

542
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: of course, I live in Jersey and I just remember

543
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: ten years ago there was areas they used to flood

544
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 1: all the time during the rain. They used to be

545
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: problems all the time, and they fixed it. They fixed it,

546
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: you know, the structure to make sure it didn't happen again.

547
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: And I wonder why they don't do that in certain

548
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 1: areas that flood all the time, like New Orleans, Louisiana

549
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: or all. I think Jersey flooding a little different than

550
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: Louisiana flooding. Louisiana flooding is a lot more intense, a

551
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: lot more. But if they know it's high, can't they

552
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 1: figure out how it's not. It's not like it's a surprise.

553
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: They know what's going to happen. They evacuate people, so

554
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: when they be able to install something in the infrastructure

555
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 1: to make sure it doesn't happen again. Maybe it's just me.

556
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm you know, I'm just asking. Yeah,

557
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: this has been an ongoing issue there so and even

558
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: yeah for you know, they're trying to move these generators

559
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: there now for people to be able to have power.

560
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: I saw a man got attacked by an alligator. That's

561
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: why in the water from the floods after Hurricane Ida.

562
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: All right now, two people are dead and ten are

563
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: injured after a Mississippi highway washed away by heavy rain.

564
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: The incident occurred on Highway twenty six in George County,

565
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: and the washout they said was likely related to the

566
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: rain from Hurricane Ida as well. More than fifty eight

567
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: thousand people in Mississippi remain without power due to the storm.

568
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 1: All Right, and South African researchers are keeping an eye

569
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: on yet another new coronavirus variant. They're saying this one

570
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: is called C one two. It's popped up across South

571
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: Africa and other seven other countries in Africa, Asia and

572
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 1: the Pacific. They're not sure whether it's constellation of mutations

573
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: will make it more dangerous, but they said it has

574
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: changes that have given other variants increased transmissibility and also

575
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: the ability to evade the immune systems response to some degree.

576
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: So they're saying that more mutations doesn't have to mean

577
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: more dangerous. Some mutations can weaken a virus, but we'll

578
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: see what happens. They're keeping an eye on this new variant.

579
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: Why does all of this sound like the Marvel Universe?

580
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: I mean, mutations, invariants and all types of other stuff. Well,

581
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: are the Avengers when we need them? My God? Is

582
00:29:55,920 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: the avengers? The vaccine? I don't know, Senators, just imagine

583
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: all these things happening at once, right we have, Yeah,

584
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: it's just a lot like the Book of Revelation. To me,

585
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: that is your front page about what everybody else doing.

586
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: But you better find some healing and get right with God,

587
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: because you know absolutely, I haven't found answers any place else.

588
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: It's been crazy. It's between COVID and the storms and

589
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: all that. It's just it's just been crazy. My family

590
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: just got back this morning, and they were supposed to

591
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,479
Speaker 1: be back when Saturday morning because the storms held them

592
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: and it was sucked. So you better get them. You

593
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: better get the know God if you don't know. All

594

00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: the pandemic with DJing and everything, and and actually even

608
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: though you work for a brand, telling him, don't just

609
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: take a check to take a check, you know, Yeah,

610
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,520

611
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: and Derek definitely connect on that level. DNA excuse me,

612
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: and let me tell you. In the pandemic, I was like, Dee,

Speaker 1: let me sponsor your club, Quarantine. I got a check

614
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: for you, when he was like, I'm doing this for

00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: my heart. Wow. So yeah, and he did, and look

616
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: and look, look what's happening for him. The money's coming

617
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: right because he's doing it from his heart. What do

618
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: you like to drink? Took? Yeah? Yeah. But let's talk

619
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 1: about Ingrid for a second, because not only is she

620
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: my friend, we first connected really like on business and

621
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 1: to me, she is one of my favorite people. Whenever

622
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: I need advice on something or how to negotiate a deal,

623
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: She's the person I go to. So I want to

624
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: talk about how you got to where you are because

625
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: I know that there's a lot of younger people who

626
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: are watching, who are like, one day, I want to

627
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: be an executive like ingrid Is And how did she

628
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: get to that point? And you work in the spirits industry,

629
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: and you've been there in this industry for so long,

630
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: and it might seem like just fun going to parties

631
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: having drinks, but there's so much more that happens behind

632
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: the scenes. So let's start with you started out at

633
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: a young age and you had a promotions company. Yeah,

634
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: I started out actually doing street promotions. I worked for

635
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 1: all the major record labels. I actually was on the

636
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 1: Bad Boys Street Team for the Street Team to be

637
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 1: an executive big Yeah, those legendary campaigns like the Big

638
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: Macow And when you think about a lot of like

639
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: the experiential agencies and activations now that came from a

640
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: lot of street promotion and guerrilla marketing and they just

641
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: kind of took our sauce and tried to make it

642
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: their own. So a lot of what I do today

643
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 1: comes from a lot of those early learnings from my

644
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: street promotions days. Very lost art by the way, Yeah,

645
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: very much so, And it's a story that needs to

646
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: be told. But yeah, I've been in the business for

647
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 1: twenty years. I started as an ambassador. I launched a

648
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 1: little small brand for a really big company, and uh,

649
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 1: that's where I found myself falling in love with this industry.

650
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: But the turning point for me in terms of my

651
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 1: spirit's career was really around the time that Puff made

652
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: the deal with Sirok right, because it was the first

653
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: time that we got to see black and brown people,

654
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: got to see someone you know, at that that had

655
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: a seat at the table. He got a seat at

656
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: the table for us, and that was really what kind

657
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: of put the fire under me. I'm like, you know, this,

658
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: this is a real this is a career. You know,

659
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: there's something here. And when I started, there was there

660
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: were no black and brown people that I saw anyway,

661
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 1: you know. I mean for me, it was the receptionist

662
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: and maybe an assistant, but in terms of management level

663
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 1: making decisions, they're just weren't people that look like us.

664
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 1: So from from my very early start, I was like,

665
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm gonna mix this up and I'm

666
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: anna change. And so that's one of the things I've

667
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: been committed to doing is making sure that black and

668
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: brown people have representation in the spirits industry, which is

669
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: why me and did he connect the way that we do, right,

670
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 1: because that's always been his ambition as well. Now before

671
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: you landed there, let's talk about your path in this

672
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: spirit's business. Because you worked for a Boccardi, right, Was

673
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: that your first? No? So, I've been in the game

674
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: almost twenty years. I started out launching a brand for Diagio,

675
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: and then I went on to work for Diago for

676
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: five or six years. I then was recruited by LVMH

677
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: now for Diagio for people who don't know what Diagio is.

678
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: They also are the company that explained how Diagio works,

679
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: just for people who don't know. Yep, So full circle

680
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: moment for me. I started at Diago and now I'm

681
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: managing did He's partnership with Diagio. So Diago is our

682
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: partner now on siroc and Delon. I worked with them

683
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: for five years. They're the biggest supplier in the world.

684
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: They own most of the brands that people are enjoying

685
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: at bars and at home. I then went on to

686
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: work for I got recruited by LVMH for the moet

687
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: Hennessee division. I started working across the portfolio wine spirits

688
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: both and Champagne and then worked on the Hennessee team.

689
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 1: So when you've seen all that work where Hennessey really

690
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: revitalized itself, that was a team that I worked on.

691
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: And then I worked on Belvedere try to help them

692
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: get their act together. And then I got recruited actually

693
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: from Jay's team at Rock Nation to come and oversee

694
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: the joint venture for Boccarti and Jay on Douce. Boccarti

695
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: is the parent company for Yes McCarty's a parent company

696
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 1: for du Say and partnership with Jay. They co own it,

697
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: and I basically oversaw all the marketing for du Say.

698
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: And then I got a call from Diddy and the

699
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: team at Comb's Enterprise, and you know, again a full

700
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 1: circle moment. You know, when I think back to how

701
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: I started my career, he was very much so his

702
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: deal with Sirock was so influential because I was like,

703
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: finally we got a piece of this thing. And so

704
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: for me, it really is a full circle moment. And

705
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: so now I'm the head of marketing for Comb's Enterprise.

706
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: We oversee Sarak and DeLeon, and we're you know, looking

707
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: at other brands to increase, you know, and grow our

708
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: portfolio and it's just it's a it's incredible opportunity. Here

709
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: we talk about that for a second because people love

710
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: to act like Diddy don't really own some of that

711
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: Shaq and daileon, but he has ownership in it. Yeah

712
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: for sure for Sarak. Listen, it's a mastermind you know,

713
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 1: marketing partnership that he put together, and all over the

714
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: world if you say Sarak, what people say is Diddy. Yeah. Um.

715
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: And so there's there's no denying the connectivity and the

716
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 1: fact that he absolutely um is the anchor for that brand.

717
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: And then with Delion again he predicted the intersection between

718
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: culture and and tequila. No, no one really understood what

719
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: was going to happen in that category the way that

720
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,959
Speaker 1: he did. Um. And he's a black man that owns

721
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 1: a tequila and his partner is Diagio. Um. And it's

722
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: big business. A lot of people don't realize. But the

723
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 1: Spears business, which is why you see so many people

724
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: jumping in it is top hip hop hip hop artists

725
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 1: every year. Yeah. I saw you posted a picture of

726
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 1: your team that you have which is all black women, yes,

727
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: which is unheard of in the spirits industry. Yeah. Yeah,

728
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 1: we're we are the only team that looks like us.

729
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: I have seven black women marketers that are incredible. They're

730
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: the best and the best. We can go toe to

731
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: toe with anybody. So I'm kind of calling out the brand.

732
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: They are what make me great. And both of the

733
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 1: brands are growing double digits. It's no accident because these

734
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: women just get it right and they're hard working, and

735
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: we look like the consumer we're talking to the versus battles. Yeah, yeah,

736
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: we did we you know. And again that was another

737
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: prediction on on Ditty's behalf where he was like, make

738
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: that happen. I'm like done because he knew that that

739
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 1: was just going to be such a big moment and

740
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,759
Speaker 1: culture and it has proven to be and we've been

741
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: at the center of that. All right. We have more

742
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: with Ingrid Best. So we come back to don't move

743
00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: this to Breakfast Club morning. I want to everybody to

744
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: see j Envy Angela Yee Charlomagne, the guy we all

745
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: to Breakfast Club was still kicking it with ingd Best,

746
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: the executive vice president and global head of marketing for

747
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,959
Speaker 1: Spirits and Combs Enterprises. We have Ingrid bestish yeeism. During

748
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: this whole a sense to where you are now a lot. Yeah.

749
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: Part of why this position was so attractive to me

750
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: was because I knew that I would be in a

751
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: situation to go back and grab a lot of those

752
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,399
Speaker 1: young women that have been through situations like myself, where

753
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, you're not getting the appropriate titles, you're not

754
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,959
Speaker 1: being offered their appropriate packages, You're being asked to wait

755
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: in the same positions much longer than your white counterparts.

756
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: And it's obvious, like the treatment as obvious, and it's traumatizing, right.

757
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: I think obviously the George Floyd moment and the moment

758
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 1: with Black Lives Matter made companies realize that they were

759
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: under the microscope. So you're starting to see them appoint folks,

760
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: you know, kind of ask figureheads because they have to.

761
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: They're like, Okay, we need a head of diverse and inclusion. Yeah,

762
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: and I don't. But it's also continue it. Yeah, right now,

763
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 1: while we're under the microscope, we're gonna do this and

764
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: then we'll move away from it later. It can't be surface.

765
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 1: And so I would say for those companies, I'm probably

766
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, they keep an eye on me because I'm

767
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: so vocal about it, Like let's talk about it. There

768
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: is racism in this industry, like there's racism in all industries, right.

769
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: I think the difference here is that your consumer is

770
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 1: black and brown, and so you gotta do you gotta

771
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: do the right thing, right, and we all have to

772
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: demand that they do the right thing. So it's good

773
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 1: to see, uh, some of my peers that are finally

774
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: getting positioned in the right places. And you know, my

775
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: thing is like you gotta seat, go get everybody else

776
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: and get them a seat, right, Like that's our responsibility.

777
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:48,919
Speaker 1: And so that's what I've done with the seven women

778
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: that work for me, and they are incredible, you know.

779
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: And that person don't know you also have a son, yes,

780
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: and you had your signing pretty early, and you also

781
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: had to work though and working in nightlife and working

782
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: in spirits. It is a very time consuming job. It

783
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: also requires travel, it requires you being out late. How

784
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: was that balance for you? Yeah, you know it. Listen,

785
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm a teenage mom. I have my son at eighteen

786
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 1: years old. The first thing I want to say is

787
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: to all you teenage moms, there's nothing you cannot do.

788
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: So for me, it was like the very very early on,

789
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: I was like Okay, I have this mouth to feed.

790
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: I have to figure this thing out. And so he

791
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: certainly has been my reason. And it wasn't easy. It

792
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: was it was my community, thank God for you know,

793
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: his father and his father's family and my mom and

794
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: my family and like your tribe. And I knew early

795
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 1: on without my tribe, I wasn't going to really be

796
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: able to balance like the love that I had for

797
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: being an adult professional and a career person, but the

798
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: responsibility that I had to being a parent. Did I

799
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: reach away at Sway? Sue was one of your early mentors. Yeah,

800
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: Sway is absolutely one of my early mentors. Yeah, I'm

801
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: from the day. Yeah. Yeah. So I in turn for Way,

802
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 1: and you know, my promotions, my street promotions career was

803
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: because of Sway. So Sway had a street promotions company.

804
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: I interned for him. I fell in love with it.

805
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: I was really good with it. He kind of moved on,

806
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: and that was really how we stepped in. I was like, yo,

807
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take all your accounts. If you're okay with that,

808
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:25,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to take on. But yeah, I absolutely owe

809
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 1: my connection to entertainment, my passion for it to Sway.

810
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: And I tell him that as often as I can,

811
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: I wish more young people now were in doing internships

812
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: without my internship. There's a lot of things that I

813
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,479
Speaker 1: just wouldn't have been exposed to. And did he talks

814
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: about that he was the intern. I was like, I'm

815
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,320
Speaker 1: willing to do anything to figure it out. And I

816
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 1: think there's just so much value and interning and having

817
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: people that you can look back. When I think back

818
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: to Sway, I'm like, man, what would my life have

819
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 1: been if I hadn't of met him, if I didn't intern? Remember,

820
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 1: I had a kid as an intern to the problem

821
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: now is that they make it too complicated to be

822
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: an intern. Yeah, you got to be in school X

823
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 1: like I wasn't. I didn't go to college, you know

824
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,800
Speaker 1: what I mean? So what about those kids from the

825
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: hood who just got dry or just got talent, Like

826
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 1: they just need an opportunity right, Like where they're gonna

827
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: get that from? Right? And that was me. Yeah. I

828
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 1: don't think nobody sets the tone like like black women.

829
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: I really truly honest, I feel like that. And I

830
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 1: think that when you, especially as a black man, when

831
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: you see a true black women, the first thing you

832
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,439
Speaker 1: think is because you're thinking to your mom, you're thinking

833
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: to your grandma, you know, your sisters, whatever. I just

834
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: think nobody sets the tone like black black women are incredible.

835
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: We're super passionate, we are nurturing. So the other thing

836
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: is like we take time to be human. We're not

837
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 1: just employees, we're not robots. We very much so you know,

838
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: zooms with my team, it's a moment. You know, sometimes

839
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 1: we pray. Sometimes somebody's having a hard time, they may cry.

840
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you one thing. They're gonna they're

841
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: gonna bang out an incredible marketing plan. And I think

842
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: you know, companies that have us at the helm, they

843
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: see the difference. You know, we're putting up the numbers.

844
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 1: We're making change. We have a beautiful way of recruiting

845
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 1: right and influencing people want to work with us and

846
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: for us, and it goes a long way and you

847
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: see it in your business. I'm super proud of the

848
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: work that I see black women doing, especially the black

849
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 1: women in leadership, and we look out for each other.

850
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: But spekin of which we have this Black Excellence campaign

851
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,879
Speaker 1: that's going on with entrepreneurship and businesses. So I want

852
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: to make sure that we talk about that and that's

853
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 1: what SIAK and I'm involved in that as well. You are,

854
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 1: and thank you so much. So we launched a campaign

855
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 1: in the middle of the pandemic called Sarak Stands, and

856
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,360
Speaker 1: it's really our opportunity to look, everyone knows that Siak

857
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: is a brand that's about fun and celebration. Well, we're

858
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: also a brand that's anchored in doing the right thing

859
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 1: and being a voice right and it was important for

860
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: us to make sure that people understand that you could

861
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 1: have fun. You know, you can be a part of culture,

862
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: but you can also be anchored in something. So we

863
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 1: launched Shark Sands last year. We're kicking it off again

864
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: um this month, and we purposely kicked it off towards

865
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 1: the latter part of August because it's focused around black businesses.

866
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: And so the assumption is, oh, they're doing this program

867
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 1: for Black Business Month, and we're like, no, we we're

868
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: doing programs for black businesses three hundred and sixty five

869
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: days a year. We're working with you to interview some

870
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 1: of those businesses and highlight some of those businesses. It

871
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 1: was important to work with you because you are pioneering,

872
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: you know, your entrepreneurial journey as a black business owner

873
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,240
Speaker 1: and it's inspiring people, right, and so there's a connect

874
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: connection there. So Siak stands, you know, it is just

875
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: launching an initiative around black businesses. We're highlighting three businesses

876
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,919
Speaker 1: in New York, three businesses that happened to be owned

877
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: by black women, which were really excited about. We work

878
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 1: with some mentors to identify some of those, by the way,

879
00:44:53,680 --> 00:45:02,479
Speaker 1: and Pantina's a mentor. As a mentor and our bust

880
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: up here, yeah, but we we we identify folks that

881
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 1: we thought could really help us pick some really dope

882
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 1: black businesses. So again it's our opportunities. And these business

883
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 1: owners get to be on billboards. But they're all so

884
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: excited about when I spoke to them. That's the one

885
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: thing that they're like, Sirak is paying for you to

886
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: be on a billboard for your business. That's a big deal. Yeah. Yeah,

887
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 1: And we are doing obviously above and beyond that investing

888
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: making sure that these businesses you know, are profiled, right,

889
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: But then we're also working with companies that can also

890
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 1: help you know, other black businesses benefit from some of

891
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: the things that we're doing. This is none of my business.

892
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: I'm just asking because you're so dope, and I'm sure

893
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: you're paid well, but you know, you helped build up

894
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: so many of these brands. At some point somebody got

895
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 1: to say, well, hey, miss Ingrid, would you like se

896
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 1: equity ownership as well? I love that. I'm actually glad

897
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: you brought that up. My goal and what I will

898
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: eventually do is on my own brand, and that's something

899
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: that Diddy and I have taught about. He's super supportive

900
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: of it. I'm working on some things that have been

901
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 1: passionate and near and dear to me um and he's like,

902
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 1: look when you when the time comes, we're gonna make

903
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 1: it happen. And so ultimately my thing is like you

904
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 1: take all these experiences and then you say I know

905
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: how to do this, I'm a master at this, and

906
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: then what is it that I'm passionate about? And so

907
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 1: that's what eventually I think my path is going to

908
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: lead as well. And did he is super supportive of it,

909
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,640

Speaker 1: Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. But

960
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 1: let's talk. Kanye's tenth studio album, Donda over sixty million

961
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: streams in the US on Apple Music in the first

962
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: twenty four hours. It set a twenty twenty one record

963
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: for the streaming service, and it was the third highest

964
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: total ever in that spand it also was number one

965
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 1: and tapped a record one hundred and fifty two countries

966
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 1: on Apple Music's album charts in its first twenty four hours,

967
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 1: and it occupied nineteen of the top twenty spots on

968
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 1: its daily Top one hundred global Songs charts. So all

969
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 1: I've worked, all anticipation work, all of listening parties and

970
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: the pushbacks and everything else worked on Spotify got more

971
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 1: than ninety four million worldwide streams, the second most all

972
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: time ever for Spotify. So congratulations to him. Now, there

973
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: was a lot of drama, as you know, and one

974
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 1: of the things that happened was Soldier Boy was upset

975
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: that he was removed from the album. The verse that

976
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,720
Speaker 1: he did was cut from remote control. Here's a Soldier

977
00:49:56,760 --> 00:50:00,040
Speaker 1: Boy talking about Kanye who didn't even tell him that

978
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: he didn't put his verse on the album. It was

979
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 1: just more of a thing to where it's blaming it

980
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 1: to my fans, so where if they're not in the

981
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 1: dark about the whole situation. He blamed it on Universal

982
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 1: You saw that tweet as cow all the reason he

983
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,440
Speaker 1: said that, why you ain't said it before the outcome out?

984
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: You wait time? Expressed myself on social media and then

985
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 1: you made an excuse. I don't give a damn if

986
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 1: he man, I don't care hypeel Hey man, you could

987
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: have called me before everything. You couldn't called me and said,

988
00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: drakeco just the reason why you didn't make the album.

989
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: TAMZ always catches up a Soldier Boys somehow. Now. He

990
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 1: also posted he did the same ish on RoboCop on

991
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 1: amber Rose was in the studio years ago. I hate

992
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 1: working with this dude. He needs help seriously, and then

993
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,799
Speaker 1: he called him vagina. Well that's why you call him,

994
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 1: he said, he does he could be the presidents at

995
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 1: your goofy asked down somewhere. That's why I hope don't

996
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 1: f well. I think he meant to right f with you,

997
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:54,399
Speaker 1: but he said f you. You don't have no right.

998
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't like your behavior, like Danny As had said,

999
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: don't call my phone. No more weird ass and where

1000
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: That's why Kim left your bipolar ass. That's not cool,

1001
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 1: that's right, masson the brother healing energy man. All right,

1002
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: he went, and then he could call me at Kim

1003
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 1: Kardashian he playing too much. And he also put up

1004
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:35,319
Speaker 1: his verse from remote control. Now, I don't know how

1005
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: the industry works. Do you have to give people phone

1006
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,319
Speaker 1: calls when you remove them from records? Do you let

1007
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 1: them know? I mean, I think it's proper etiquette if

1008
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,399
Speaker 1: you record a verse with somebody in an I will

1009
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: say this, A lot of artists don't know if they

1010
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,800
Speaker 1: made an album or not until it comes out. And

1011
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,319
Speaker 1: that's the truth, right, Like you might do a verse

1012
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,880
Speaker 1: for somebody you don't know. And then we've had artists

1013
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 1: up here all the time who like I recorded one

1014
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: hundred songs, I only put twelve on the album, you know,

1015
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 1: And sometimes but if they put out a version of

1016
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 1: a song that you will own and you're not on it,

1017
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,439
Speaker 1: I think it's only right to have a conversation. I think.

1018
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't say, but he did share their

1019
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: text messages back and forth. You know it would be nice,

1020
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,319
Speaker 1: but it doesn't always happen. And that's just the truth.

1021
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,839
Speaker 1: I'm sure that there's a ton of artists who did

1022
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 1: versus that didn't make it onto the album, right, and

1023
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: you don't know who it comes out. Just send them

1024
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: healing energy, soldier boy, That's all all right now. Twenty

Speaker 1: she didn't like her texture. She said, I hate to

1061
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,320
Speaker 1: say it, Slash admitted, but I'm so sad that I

1062
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: have my dad's hair texture. Sad because it's so much

1063
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 1: to deal with manage, Sad because I feel like it

1064
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: just doesn't fit me nor as this texture one that's

1065
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: appreciated or uplifted as much as the other textures. And

1066
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,319
Speaker 1: then she said, anytime I see someone with type four hair,

1067
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,800
Speaker 1: I always compliment them because I know how it feels

1068
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,880
Speaker 1: to genuinely not like your hair, slash texture. I never

1069
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: want anyone to feel like that. It looks so bomb

1070
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 1: on other people but me, Yeah no. So a lot

1071
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,440
Speaker 1: of people did come to her defense and feel like

1072
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:46,320
Speaker 1: they could relate and understand that, and some people felt like,

1073
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: you know, they criticize her for opening up about her hair.

1074
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,400
Speaker 1: She's saying saying that she's focusing on positive comments rather

1075
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 1: than the negative ones. But she said, I'm actually focusing

1076
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,560
Speaker 1: on the uplifting positive comments as opposed to the negative.

1077
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:00,919
Speaker 1: Their tweet was only about myself, but I was open

1078
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 1: about how I fail because I know others might possibly

1079
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 1: be able to relate, and some of them did listen.

1080
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 1: I feel her though, because you know, my whole life

1081
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: growing up, I used to hate my hair texture. That's

1082
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 1: why I've been doing this natural hair journey to try

1083
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 1: to get my curls back straight. And it was just

1084
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:17,400
Speaker 1: a lot to deal with. It would always be like

1085
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,320
Speaker 1: you wash it, and then your hair when it's curly,

1086
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: it gets all naughty real fast. They didn't have a

1087
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 1: lot of hair products to be able to use for

1088
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 1: you to be able to deal with you here. Now

1089
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,839
Speaker 1: there's a ton of products on the market, which is great. Yeah,

1090
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,720
Speaker 1: people celebrate natural hair, but it is and sometimes certain

1091
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 1: hair textures are just a lot more difficult to even

1092
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: try to deal with, like to style and maintain. And

1093
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:40,320
Speaker 1: that's why you know I got I got three daughters.

1094
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: Like I told my daughters all the time, I love

1095
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: your hair. I love your crown like I love them.

1096
00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 1: My wife takes day braids out and they got the

1097
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 1: big afros running around the house. Plus, there's a lot

1098
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 1: of children's books out there that celebrate the beauty of

1099
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 1: black hair. Nowadays, you got like my big natural Hair.

1100
00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:59,280
Speaker 1: But what's her name? I think it's CJ. CJ. Baker,

1101
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: but didn't have that coming up. I'm saying it's great now,

1102
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 1: but I can understand and a lot of women can't

1103
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: understand the struggles that we've had to go through with

1104
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 1: our hair. That's why even having certain products in these

1105
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: stores now on the shelves and accessible to people is

1106
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,359
Speaker 1: so important. Hello, Hello boy, Matthew Cherry Slut the Matthew Cherry.

1107
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,239
Speaker 1: Because a lot of a lot of books out there

1108
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 1: that reinforced the beauty of black hair. And if you've

1109
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: got daughters like I do, I would encourage you to

1110
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:27,400
Speaker 1: buy them all. All right now, Regina Hall is going

1120
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 1: Oh wait, yeah, we gotta get into that, because we

1121
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:56,759
Speaker 1: didn't even do that. When we were talking about you.

1122
00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 1: We talked about Kanye's Donda album and how well it did,

1123
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 1: and you had some missues with Kanye. You called them

1124
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:04,719
Speaker 1: clowns sometimes. I called him a clown and I still

1125
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,239
Speaker 1: stand by that, and I still mean that send them

1126
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 1: healing energy. No, look, I mean I do, but I

1127
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: still think he's a clown. You can send the clown

1128
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 1: healing energy. But so funny now, so when it comes

1129
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 1: to so many people call me artists, athletes, OG's newer artist,

1130
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 1: younger artists, Kanye's team and ask me why I felt

1131
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 1: that way, and I explained to him why I felt

1132
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: that way, and you know, they asked me, well, why

1133
00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 1: do you think that the people that I name, which

1134
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,040
Speaker 1: was push your t John Monopoly are free and Boo

1135
00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 1: were like that too, because I felt, like I said,

1136
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,120
Speaker 1: I feel like you enable him to do it, like

1137
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 1: you don't stop him from doing the wild out stuff

1138
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 1: behind the scenes that I think is really disrespectful. And

1139
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 1: he should be humbled. And they told me that that's

1140
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 1: a lie. It was like that it's not true. They

1141
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 1: was like, when you're dealing with somebody with that has

1142
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 1: imaginal problems and bipolar and things like that, you can't

1143
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:56,640
Speaker 1: necessarily control them. It's uncontrollable. You do what you can

1144
00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 1: to make sure that things are right, and they try

1145
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 1: to stay in there as a brother. They said, yeah,

1146
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: they agree some of the things that he does is foul,

1147
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 1: but they said they can't control that, man. And I

1148
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,120
Speaker 1: called them clowns as well, And I called push you

1149
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 1: to yesterday. I called Free yesterday and I spoke to

1150
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,040
Speaker 1: Boo yesterday for a while that I spoke to them, man,

1151
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 1: we had great conversations and they told me what they're

1152
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 1: trying to do that help that situation. So to those brothers, yes,

1153
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 1: I get it, and me calling your clown was foul.

1154
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 1: But I still think Kanye, it's a clown for the

1155
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 1: things that if you ever had to deal with somebody

1156
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 1: who's bipolar and not taking their medication, it is not

1157
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 1: an easy thing to do. If you love them, you

1158
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: try to help and be around, but it is hard

1159
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 1: to control a person. I just want to know how

1160
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 1: do you explain to your wife that she was on

1161
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 1: the phone somebody named Boo for hours? Because as soon

1162
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 1: as she says who you're on the phone. When you

1163
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 1: say Boo, do you have to explain that this is

1164
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 1: his name? Who was always in the middle of time?

1165
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: That remember he broke up your fight, Charlottagne, we'll fight

1166
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 1: ahead and had no fight. Why don't we lie like

1167
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 1: this on the radio? A picture of it online? So

1168
00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:03,400
Speaker 1: I did have with dancing when I was dancing with Booth,

1169
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 1: shout shout the bull and shout to Free. I just

1170
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: speak to Free. Me and Free just yelled at each other.

1171
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: But spot shout all them individuals that you know, we're

1172
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 1: able to tell me their side. And you know when

1173
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: I tell them, you know when I make mistakes, I

1174
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 1: say it, but I still think what Kanye does And

1175
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:20,720
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna throw your yeez. He's away though, no

Speaker 1: before we get into that, let me just say that.

1201
01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 1: I once heard someone say sometimes you have to fake

1202
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 1: a suicide to get your girl back. When I heard that,

1203
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,200
Speaker 1: I understood where a person was coming from, because I

1204
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:17,680
Speaker 1: too have felt like I wanted to make a permanent

1205
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 1: decision based off temporary feelings back in the day when

1206
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 1: my now wife broke up with me. I don't know

1207
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: if I really wanted to complete suicide. I just know

1208
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 1: that I felt like the sky was falling and I

1209
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 1: wanted my woman back, and I felt like making her

1210
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:31,360
Speaker 1: feel sorry for me would work. I know, I know

1211
01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: toxic is out, all right. Thank God for therapy, growth

1212
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,240
Speaker 1: and healing. Thank you God, Thank you God. Well, this

1213
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: guy Rodney mentions him he definitely needs me healing, okay,

1214
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 1: and he's no different all right. Actually, Rodney, in an

1215
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 1: attempt to gain sympathy from his ex wife, he jumped

1216
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:52,000
Speaker 1: out the window because first he faked the cancer diagnosis. See,

1217
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:53,880
Speaker 1: I don't play like that, all right. You turned out

1218
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 1: to be what you pretend to be. I'm not playing

1219
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:59,040
Speaker 1: about having no cancer, okay. Well, according to Sheriff's Office

1220
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 1: Sheriff's Office investigators, that plan didn't work. AKA, his wife

1221
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:06,160
Speaker 1: didn't give a damn Okay. Ex wife probably heard the

1222
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,120
Speaker 1: news and said, I'm gonna send him healing energy and

1223
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:11,280
Speaker 1: kept her day moving. So Rodney divised another plan, this

1224
01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: one even more diabolical than the first. See Rodney Metser

1225
01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:19,680
Speaker 1: decided to devise the plan the kidnap and save his

1226
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,200
Speaker 1: ex wife in a bid to win her back. Listen

1227
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,720
Speaker 1: to what I just said. Rodney mets Her divised the

1228
01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: plan the kidnap and save his ex wife in a

1229
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: way to win her back. Now back on January first

1230
01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: of this year, I guess Rodney's ex wife was on

1231
01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 1: some New Year and New Me energy and when Rodney

1232
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,760
Speaker 1: tried to get back with her, she denied him. So

1233
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:43,400
Speaker 1: Rodney came up with this plan, the kidnap and safe

1234
01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,520
Speaker 1: his ex wife in a bid to win her back.

1235
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 1: But not just to kidnapper, all right. He wanted to

1236
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 1: kidnapper and save her. Okay, just like a man. Right.

1237
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:55,320
Speaker 1: Ladies want to be both the problem and the solution.

1238
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,160
Speaker 1: When the reality is, when you toxic like Rodney, you

1239
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 1: just the problem. But I'm not judging. I'm sending him

1240
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,680
Speaker 1: healing energy. Okay, listen to this story. Rodney broke into

1241
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,360
Speaker 1: his ex wife's house wearing a mask and displaying a gun.

1242
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,160
Speaker 1: When he spoke, he described his voice all right. He

1243
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:11,840
Speaker 1: hit her with the butt of the gun, tried to

1244
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: scramble her two times. He zip tied her hands, assaulted her,

1245
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:19,000
Speaker 1: placed the pillowcase over her head, and dragged her to

1246
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 1: the deck and told her if she moved from the

1247
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,919
Speaker 1: deck she would be shot. Then Rodney went to change

1248
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 1: his clothes and came back to his ex wife's house,

1249
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 1: trying to be hero and called the police. Now, Rodney

1250
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:33,760
Speaker 1: Metris couldn't have denied this if he tried. Evidence in

1251
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,440
Speaker 1: the case was substantial, okay. Cherokee County Sheriff's found the

1252
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 1: handgun and Metor's apartment, as well as zip ties that

1253
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 1: matched the one found on his ex wife. Investigators also

1254
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 1: saw Rodney on surveillance video carrying a package of zip

1255
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:52,200
Speaker 1: ties out of a local lows all right. Rodney's cell

1256
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:56,400
Speaker 1: phone in laptop search history, revealed to investigators that he

1257
01:03:56,520 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: searched such topics as how long before you start to death,

1258
01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 1: how to change the sound of your voice, and how

1259
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 1: long it takes to choke someone unconscious. I couldn't make

1260
01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 1: this up if I tried. Not granted that, how long

1261
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 1: before you starve. The death is what most men who

1262
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: lose their wives google because they can't cook, and a

1263
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,320
Speaker 1: man cannot live off Chick fil a alone. All right? Now,

1264
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:18,600
Speaker 1: Da Rachel ashe who prosecuted the case, said Rodney mets

1265
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 1: her as a master manipulator. I believe that as an understatement.

1266
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:24,919
Speaker 1: And it's also very interesting to me that men will

1267
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 1: figure out all these ways to get all women back

1268
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 1: when we lose them. But the one thing we need

1269
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 1: to do when we are together, it's just act right. Okay,

1270
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 1: It's really not that difficult. Just simply act right when

1271
01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 1: you together, which said lady, and maybe y'all still be together. Now.

1272
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 1: I know certain circumstances lead you to do certain things,

1273
01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 1: but that woman's intuition at some point kicked in and

1274
01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 1: she realized I got to get away from this human

1275
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 1: Rodney before his trauma kills the both of us. And

1276
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 1: guess what you did, Rodney prove her right. Okay, your

1277
01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:58,960
Speaker 1: ex wife was absolutely correct in leaving your ass because you,

1278
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 1: my friend, are sociopath. Now, Rodney Mitsche has been sentenced

1279
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 1: by Judge Anthony Anthony Baker the seventy years okay, with

1280
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 1: the first twenty five years to be served in confinement

1281
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,440
Speaker 1: and the remaining forty five to be served on probation.

1282
01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 1: Let me tell ya something, man, when you love something,

1283
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 1: let it go. If it comes back to you, then

1284
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,680
Speaker 1: it's meant to be all right, it's yours. Nope. But

1285
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 1: also when you love something, let it go. And if

1286
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:25,680
Speaker 1: you have to come up with criminal plans to get

1287
01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 1: said thing back, remember the first part, Let it go

1288
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 1: and let it stay. Go on. Please let mmy may

1289

1295
01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 1: to put yourself in these type of situations. This is

1296
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,120
Speaker 1: extreme though, I mean, come on, you think yeah, I

Speaker 1: first he faked cancer, a cancer diagnosis to get his

1316
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,600
Speaker 1: ex wife back. When that didn't work, he divided the

1317
01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 1: plan the kidnap and save her. So he kidnapped her,

1318
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:24,040
Speaker 1: then left the house, came back dressed in some other

1319
01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,760

Speaker 1: craziest thing you've done to get your girl back or

1324
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:39,040
Speaker 1: to try to get your girl back? Charlemagne, I mean

1325
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: just fake suicide? Regular? Yeah, I mean that wasn't a

1326
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 1: fake suicide. I just said I'm gonna kill myself if

1327
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:46,680
Speaker 1: you're not with me, or something like that, something along

1328
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,880
Speaker 1: those those lines. What about for you, ye, what's what's

1329
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,160
Speaker 1: the craziest thing a guy has done to you? I

1330
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,320
Speaker 1: actually have to get a restraining order. This guy used

1331
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,200
Speaker 1: to my ex boyfriend, used to stop me all the

1332
01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,240
Speaker 1: time I would come home. He'd be waiting outside the

1333
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:01,480
Speaker 1: house as soon as I walked up. He'd be waiting

1334
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:03,440
Speaker 1: outside my job. It was like everywhere I went. So

1335
01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:05,360
Speaker 1: I ended up having to get a restraining order and

1336
01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:07,600
Speaker 1: we had to go to court. Then he tried to

1337
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,040
Speaker 1: sit next to me in court. I think one of

1338
01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:13,000
Speaker 1: the craziest thing is I think I called my wife's mother. Yeah,

1339
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 1: I called my wife's mother, called my wife's brother before

1340
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:17,120
Speaker 1: try to talk to them. To them, I thought that

1341
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 1: was wild. That's not really wild. I'll tell you one thing.

1342
01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: Saying you're gonna commit suicide, thing, don't try that with

1343
01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:26,400
Speaker 1: a woman that's healed and whole, because a woman that's

1344
01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 1: healed and whole is gonna tell you I wish you

1345
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 1: healing energy. I wish you healing energy, and that don't

1346
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:32,760
Speaker 1: have nothing to do with me. Don't put that on me.

1347
01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 1: Correct and boy, that right there, it'll it'll mean, it'll

1348
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 1: bring you back to reality. And I've been there. I

1349
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 1: wrote about it in the book that comes up next year,

1350
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,400
Speaker 1: how I felt, what got me to the lowest point

1351
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 1: where I didn't want to be here anymore. And I

1352
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 1: take it serious. So when people ever say that they

1353
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:47,679
Speaker 1: want to commit suicide, I take it extremely serious because

1354
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,320
Speaker 1: you don't know what they're dealing with. You just never know.

1355
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 1: And that's why I said, when you know I was,

1356
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 1: I said during Dunkey, the day that my homeboy once said,

1357
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 1: you know you have sometimes you gotta fake suicide to

1358
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,640

01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 1: but instead brought him to his house and actually performed

1507
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,160
Speaker 1: earl sex on him. He said, he was working the

1508
01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:19,960
Speaker 1: overnight shift back in two thousand and six at a

1509
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 1: suburb in Chicago. R Kelly was thirty nine years old

1510
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,880
Speaker 1: at the time, and according to quote Lewis, he said that,

1511
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 1: you know, he invited him to come to his home

1512
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:33,000
Speaker 1: in another suburb of Chicago. When he got there, they

1513
01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 1: met in a detached garage where r Kelly had exercised

1514
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:39,160
Speaker 1: equipment and a boxing ring, rather than in one of

1515
01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:40,920
Speaker 1: the studios that he had in the house. He asked

1516
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 1: me what I was willing to do for music now.

1517
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:46,800
Speaker 1: Louis said he would carry his bags and things like that,

1518
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:49,439
Speaker 1: but he said R. Kelly was unreceptive. Then he asked

1519
01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:51,760
Speaker 1: him if he had any fantasies and quoted r. Kelly

1520
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,800
Speaker 1: as in, you never had fantasies about men? I said no,

1521
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:57,200
Speaker 1: Louis continued, and then he crawled down on his knees

1522
01:17:57,200 --> 01:17:59,400
Speaker 1: and proceeded to give me oral sex. He zipped my

1523
01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:02,280
Speaker 1: pants down and he started doing it. Now. He also

1524
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,400
Speaker 1: said that he didn't have any type of reaction to

1525
01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:10,200
Speaker 1: the oral sex, So I guess R Kelly stopped and

1526
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: he asked him to stop, and then he said he

1527
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,280
Speaker 1: swore Lewis to secrecy he said, don't tell anyone we're

1528
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: brothers now. He said he continued to see r Kelly

1529
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:20,200
Speaker 1: after that he wanted to be mentored for his music career,

1530
01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:22,479
Speaker 1: and when they asked him why, he continued, you know,

1531
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:24,560
Speaker 1: he said he just was really trying to make it

1532
01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:27,040
Speaker 1: in the music business. And he said on subsequent occasions,

1533
01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 1: r Kelly would record some of their encounters while he

1534
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:32,960
Speaker 1: was sexually abusing him, and he asked that he called

1535
01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:36,880
Speaker 1: him daddy. Other women have also testified that r Kelly

1536
01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:40,000
Speaker 1: recorded their sexual encounters and demanded that they call him daddy. Previously,

1537
01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:43,120
Speaker 1: he said as his relationship with him got stronger, he said,

1538
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:45,160
Speaker 1: I was like a brother, that was his little brother.

1539
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,960
Speaker 1: And he tried to bribe another r Kelly accuser so

1540
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 1: she wouldn't testify against him. So just a lot of

1541
01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:53,960
Speaker 1: different things. And then he also discussed an incident of

1542
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,720
Speaker 1: non consensual sex that involved another person. He said r

1543
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 1: Kelly snapped his fingers and a young lady came out

1544
01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:02,360
Speaker 1: from underneath a boxing ring and crawled over to him

1545
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 1: and started performing oral sex in both him and r Kelly.

1546
01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:07,679
Speaker 1: He said it was uncomfortable, and he also said another

1547
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:09,519
Speaker 1: time he passed out from drinking at a party and

1548
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:11,840
Speaker 1: he woke up alone with r Kelly, unsure whether or

1549
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:16,120
Speaker 1: not they had a sexual encounter. So this trial is

1550
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 1: continuing on. Will continue to give you updates as they're

1551
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:23,640
Speaker 1: in court today as well. But ongoing theme here. He

1552
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:26,519
Speaker 1: had the women and now this first male sexual accuser

1553
01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:28,599
Speaker 1: who said he was groomed from from the age of seventeen,

1554
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:33,439
Speaker 1: calling him daddy, recording these sexual encounters wearing people to secrecy.

1555
01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,559
Speaker 1: Another woman says that r Kelly assaulted her days after

1556
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:39,559
Speaker 1: allegedly marrying Aliyah in secret. He said she was seventeen

1557
01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 1: at the time. And you know, she said. R Kelly

1558
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:45,360
Speaker 1: had two men approach her and her nineteen year old

1559
01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 1: friend after the show, and as the dressing room cleared out,

1560
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 1: he asked the girls to play a game of who

1561
01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:53,040
Speaker 1: could kiss it better, and then the girls kissed him

1562
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:56,120
Speaker 1: before he unzipped her pants and had unprotected sexual intercourse

1563
01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:57,920
Speaker 1: at her. How was none of this on TV? I

1564
01:19:57,960 --> 01:19:59,800
Speaker 1: would think that, you know, for all the coverage that

1565
01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:02,920
Speaker 1: you know, given R Kelly and you know, these these

1566
01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,599
Speaker 1: these things over the years, that the court trial would

1567
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:08,400
Speaker 1: be on television, right. I'm not sure why they haven't

1568
01:20:08,439 --> 01:20:10,479
Speaker 1: put it on TV. But we told you previously that

1569
01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't allowed in the courtroom right

1570
01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:15,720
Speaker 1: now because of COVID and for whatever other reasons that

1571
01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:17,799
Speaker 1: they have. So it's just the jurors and the alternate

1572
01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:21,720
Speaker 1: jurors that are in there as well. All right now,

1573
01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:25,040
Speaker 1: another drama Summer. Walker and London on the track have

1574
01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:27,800
Speaker 1: had a going back and forth on social media that's

1575
01:20:27,880 --> 01:20:31,400
Speaker 1: really messy, and she has called him the ghetto baby

1576
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,360
Speaker 1: daddy from hell. She went on social media and said,

1577
01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:37,200
Speaker 1: London calling and dming everyone around me because he's blocked

1578
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,639
Speaker 1: talking about If you care about Summer, get that away

1579
01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:42,360
Speaker 1: from her. So if anything happens to me it was

1580
01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:44,479
Speaker 1: him ghetto baby daddy from hell, I'd be minding my

1581
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:46,960
Speaker 1: business and never call him unless it's about the well

1582
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,760
Speaker 1: being of my child. Here's what else she had to say.

1583
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:55,200
Speaker 1: Yo was terrorizing me for two years, bro. Because I

1584
01:20:55,360 --> 01:21:00,360
Speaker 1: was with it. I gave him back. I tried as

1585
01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:03,560
Speaker 1: best as I could to keep him involved with his

1586
01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:07,160
Speaker 1: children's lives. Brought you here, didn't even tell you. She

1587
01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,080
Speaker 1: didn't even tell you. I was there. He was mad

1588
01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:12,000
Speaker 1: and we talked. I'm like, surely I had no problem

1589
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:13,680
Speaker 1: with you. I want to be good. Let's you know

1590
01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,000

1591
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,599
Speaker 1: till she paris come over to the playroom. Blah blah

01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,479
Speaker 1: blah nah. Because she was my baby, daddy, you still

1593
01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:23,719
Speaker 1: wanted to fight. I don't want to fight any you host.

1594
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:26,679
Speaker 1: So she's talking about all the baby moms that she's

1595
01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 1: had to deal with, and she also posted I'd be

1596
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:32,080
Speaker 1: trying so hard to mind my business. And she said,

1597
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:33,920
Speaker 1: and come get this car. I don't want nothing from you.

1598
01:21:34,439 --> 01:21:36,519
Speaker 1: And this ish ain't even paid for it. I like

1600
01:21:39,520 --> 01:21:43,439
Speaker 1: responded on social media. He said, it's goofy. He said,

1601
01:21:43,439 --> 01:21:45,160
Speaker 1: it ain't even funny. I really be trying to spare

1602
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:47,240
Speaker 1: Shorty because I understand her mental health ain't where it

1603
01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:49,639
Speaker 1: needs to be. But the line got to stop calling

1604
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:52,519
Speaker 1: DM and who for what? Post the current receipts if

1605
01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:55,599
Speaker 1: it's accurate, don't lie. Plus, my new woman ain't going

1606
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,120
Speaker 1: for no issh like that. And then he said about

1607

1611
01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:09,280
Speaker 1: You're still making payments. This is just too messy. I

1612
01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 1: don't know if we should even get into all of this.

1613
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:14,080
Speaker 1: Send healing energy. I'm sending this whole room will report

Speaker 1: the children, and so right now it's really messy and

1625

1626
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,479

1661
01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:44,000
Speaker 1: in the building. This young black woman owns a trucking

1662
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 1: business that is making millions. She she talks about where

1663
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:49,320
Speaker 1: she started from, how she got into the trucking business.

1664

Speaker 1: Casey Cooper. She's the CEO of the Compass Circle. Welcome.

1665
01:24:54,120 --> 01:24:56,519
Speaker 1: Thank you so for people that don't know who Casey

1666
01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:59,559
Speaker 1: Cooper is. Who is Casey Cooper and what is your business?

1667
01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 1: I'm Casey Cooper of the Company's Circle. Thank you for

1668
01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:05,400
Speaker 1: that intro I started a trucking company about sixteen years

1669
01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:08,760
Speaker 1: ago and kind of just kept failing forward. Got into

1670
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:13,959
Speaker 1: heavy hall, wide loads, tall loads, heavy loads, and government contracts.

1671
01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 1: So I've been awarded almost six million dollars worth of

1672
01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:20,240
Speaker 1: government contracts in the last three years. And we teach

1673
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,400
Speaker 1: women own and minority companies how to get access to

1674
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:27,680
Speaker 1: the same opportunities through government contracts or certifications so they can,

1675
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:29,640
Speaker 1: you know, grow their business. Yeah, I'm a fan of

1676
01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 1: mwbs because I feel like a lot of people don't

1677
01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:35,519
Speaker 1: take advantage of them and apply for that certification. So

1678
01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:37,439
Speaker 1: can you talk about what that process is like and

1679
01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:39,439
Speaker 1: how you even knew about it? I just really care.

1680
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:41,599
Speaker 1: You know, desire is one hell of a drug. Anything

1681
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:43,280
Speaker 1: you want bad enough, you will do the research. So

1682
01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:46,360
Speaker 1: I was googling, I was getting with my local procurement office,

1683
01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:49,799
Speaker 1: and kind of once you start getting into that industry

1684
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:51,760
Speaker 1: and you know, you start getting emails, you start getting

1685
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 1: invited to like all the happenings. WMB varies in different states,

1686
01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:58,799
Speaker 1: depending on you know what's going on. Of course, everybody's

1687
01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:00,800
Speaker 1: backed up right now, but are gonna want to see

1688
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:02,720
Speaker 1: like two years of tax returns? They're gonna want to

1689
01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:05,400
Speaker 1: see that you are a legitimate, viable business, so you

1690
01:26:05,439 --> 01:26:08,200
Speaker 1: can get this certification to move forward. Now, how did

1691
01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:11,080
Speaker 1: you get into truck And you're from Virginia Beach, and

1692
01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 1: what fifteen years ago in Virginia Beach when you started

1693
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,679
Speaker 1: this company Virginia Beach. I'm sure it wasn't about trucking,

1694
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:17,840
Speaker 1: and drugs were heavy and Virginia Beach at the time,

1695
01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,000
Speaker 1: a crime was heaving Virginia Beach and partying was heavy

1696
01:26:21,040 --> 01:26:22,800
Speaker 1: in Virginia Beach. There was no Miami back then. We

1697
01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:24,840
Speaker 1: went to Virginia Beach this party. So how did you

1698
01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:26,800
Speaker 1: get into trucking? So when I was stifteen, I had

1699
01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:29,479
Speaker 1: vendom machines and so I would be like fifteen, going

1700
01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:31,639
Speaker 1: to get my dollar bills and go hitting them all.

1701
01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:34,320
Speaker 1: So I'm making like four or five start the vendom machines.

1702
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:35,640
Speaker 1: It's not at a fifteen year old. That's not what

1703
01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:37,680
Speaker 1: a fifteen year old does, you know typically, So how

1704
01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:39,639
Speaker 1: did you get into vending machines? How did you get

1705
01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:42,400
Speaker 1: this entrepreneur type of mind? I don't know nobody in

1706
01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:45,519
Speaker 1: my family. My parents are working, middle class, retired people.

1707
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,760
Speaker 1: I have no idea. I think it's just from people

1708
01:26:47,840 --> 01:26:50,240
Speaker 1: just telling you no. Like back then, it was no uber,

1709
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:53,439
Speaker 1: it was no lift, so you had to like get

1710
01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:55,920
Speaker 1: case quarters and use the phone. White Pages picked me up.

1711
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:59,559
Speaker 1: So I became very resourceful and I just I got

1712
01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:02,160
Speaker 1: those machines. It was older gentleman in my neighborhood. He

1713
01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:04,800
Speaker 1: was he had like accounts at the airport, and I

1714
01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:06,760
Speaker 1: convinced him to just rent me to Back then, I

1715
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,760
Speaker 1: was fifteen, so it was quite some time ago, but

1716
01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:11,640
Speaker 1: for twenty five dollars a month for two of them.

1717
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:13,479
Speaker 1: Back then, I was doing music really heavy, so I

1718
01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 1: put them in the studio. I would go get my

1719
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:18,800
Speaker 1: money and I was like, set on, I'm not going

1720
01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:20,920
Speaker 1: to be the one making this money. That's how I'm

1721
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:22,679
Speaker 1: gonna do it. So that was like my first face.

1722
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:24,720
Speaker 1: I got about twenty five, and I was like, Yo,

1723
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get me a dump truck. I don't know

1724
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:28,720
Speaker 1: where it came from. It just popped up in my

1725
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:30,920
Speaker 1: dump truck. Yeah, and I'm like, okay, I'm gonna be

1726
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:32,880
Speaker 1: a millionaire. I'm gonna have this fleet. I'm gonna do this,

1727
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:34,640
Speaker 1: and it just did not happen that way. I mean,

1728
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:37,040
Speaker 1: I ended up a millionaire. But so what happened with

1729
01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:39,080
Speaker 1: the business. So, so what was the bad part about

1730
01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:40,680
Speaker 1: the business? You got your first dump truck, and then

1731
01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:43,679
Speaker 1: what happened. The first one was a piece of crap.

1732
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:45,640
Speaker 1: It was eighty thousand dollars. So the truck that was

1733
01:27:45,640 --> 01:27:48,519
Speaker 1: like twenty two hundred insurance was six hundred at one age,

1734
01:27:49,120 --> 01:27:51,880
Speaker 1: I was like twenty five. So I'm spending six hundred

1735
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:54,000
Speaker 1: a week on fuel. It was just horrible. It was

1736
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:56,360
Speaker 1: a piece of crap. It was actually a converted road tractor.

1737
01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 1: Did somebody put a dump body on? So for anybody listening,

1738
01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:01,640
Speaker 1: don't do that. Road tractors are not made to go

1739
01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:04,559
Speaker 1: off road like that. But my mom had co signed

1740
01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:08,439
Speaker 1: for me, so my motivation was like I can't. Yeah,

1741
01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:11,240
Speaker 1: I can't do it. But I was up against a

1742
01:28:11,320 --> 01:28:14,240
Speaker 1: converted road tractor. So I ended up terminating the lease.

1743
01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:15,800
Speaker 1: I had to pay like twenty grand to get out

1744
01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:18,479
Speaker 1: of it. And then I just kept buying trucks, buying trucks,

1745
01:28:18,560 --> 01:28:22,360
Speaker 1: buying trucks, got my license, got my twit car, got

1746
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,320
Speaker 1: my escort and pilot's license, and I just kept I mean,

1747
01:28:25,400 --> 01:28:27,400
Speaker 1: I was like failing forward, but I kept going to

1748
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,439
Speaker 1: the next steps escort. You gotta break it down like

1749
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:31,600
Speaker 1: three year olds. I don't know what escort escort to

1750
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 1: some people like yes, please, I've come too far. Please.

1751
01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:38,559
Speaker 1: So just like this building, this building is a tall

1752
01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:40,120
Speaker 1: I don't know how many stories, but it was a

1753
01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 1: This was a job to pull together millions of dollars.

1754
01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 1: So I would bring in like the tall beams that

1755
01:28:45,479 --> 01:28:48,200
Speaker 1: actually hold the building up. And so sometimes that stuff

1756
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:50,400
Speaker 1: is so wide or so tall or so heavy that

1757
01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 1: it's not safe during you know, normal hour. Person that

1758
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:56,600
Speaker 1: slows down to traffic because that es and you got

1759
01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:58,639
Speaker 1: to take up the Yeah, we have to keep it safe.

1760
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 1: And sometimes I mean this stuff would be so big

1761
01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:02,679
Speaker 1: we would have to carry it at night like shutdown tunnels.

1762
01:29:02,720 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 1: It was a whole production. So I think the first

1763
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:07,880
Speaker 1: time I got the first escort bill was like eleven

1764
01:29:07,960 --> 01:29:11,000
Speaker 1: thousand for the week. I was like, oh Na, who

1765
01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:12,519
Speaker 1: I need to talk to to get my license? My

1766
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 1: dad got his license, My boyfriend's time got his license.

1767
01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:17,400
Speaker 1: So we were just trying to save money. But I

1768
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:19,519
Speaker 1: ended up getting into so many other things, so it

1769
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:20,960
Speaker 1: was pretty cool. Now I want to get back to

1770
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,439
Speaker 1: these government contracts because you said you've gotten six million

1771
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 1: dollars what the government, yeah worth the government contracts. You know,

1772
01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:29,760
Speaker 1: a lot of women are eligible, and it gets a

1773
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:32,400
Speaker 1: little chicy how things get done, because I've heard of

1774
01:29:32,439 --> 01:29:35,720
Speaker 1: stories where like, you know, white women are eligible for

1775
01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:38,840
Speaker 1: this right and so their husband or family member will

1776
01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 1: sign up for something and then they'll get the certification

1777
01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:43,519
Speaker 1: with the woman in the family. But that takes away

1778
01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:46,680
Speaker 1: from all So it's supposed to benefit black people and minorities.

1779
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: So can you talk about that whole process and how

1780
01:29:49,240 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 1: you manage to get six million dollars almost six million

1781
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:53,680
Speaker 1: dollars worth of contracts. Yes, So same thing like I

1782
01:29:53,800 --> 01:29:55,320
Speaker 1: was saying earlier. I mean I was just taking all

1783
01:29:55,360 --> 01:29:59,200
Speaker 1: the classes. Everybody's local municipality or state has some kind

1784
01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:01,960
Speaker 1: of pro We had a small Business Administration, yes, and

1785
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:05,880
Speaker 1: I've taken classes there too, and I got my certification. Okay,

1786
01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,400
Speaker 1: but if you don't use it, you can't complain, you

1787
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:10,719
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So even though we don't speak

1788
01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:12,479
Speaker 1: to each other in that language, like I'm not sitting

1789
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:14,519
Speaker 1: here talking to you about an RFP and rf we

1790
01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:16,600
Speaker 1: just we don't communicate that way. I think it's a

1791
01:30:16,640 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 1: little off putting because culturally We're just not introduced to that,

1792
01:30:19,920 --> 01:30:22,840
Speaker 1: and project management is not something that we're really reared on.

1793
01:30:23,400 --> 01:30:25,800
Speaker 1: If our parents did have businesses, they were working in

1794
01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:28,200
Speaker 1: the business, you didn't really see your pops sitting back

1795
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,560
Speaker 1: calling all the shots. So same process. I mean, you

1796
01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:33,519
Speaker 1: just have to get in there, find out what your

1797
01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 1: state has to offer because it's going to vary. I

1798
01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:38,840
Speaker 1: probably have gotten over forty thousand dollars worth of free

1799
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:43,280
Speaker 1: things business plans. I'm talking about elaborate business plans, employee handbooks,

1800
01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:46,439
Speaker 1: like policies, procedures. Most of us are not walking around

1801
01:30:46,479 --> 01:30:49,040
Speaker 1: with that stuff. But that's what it takes to get to,

1802
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:52,360
Speaker 1: you know, this apex level. But you have to just

1803
01:30:52,439 --> 01:30:56,040
Speaker 1: really tap into it. The government contracts are there. My

1804
01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:59,040
Speaker 1: first one was about two months after I got registered

1805
01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:00,800
Speaker 1: in stamps. I had no blue what I was doing, like,

1806
01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:02,640
Speaker 1: no clue. I just knew that I had to get

1807
01:31:02,680 --> 01:31:04,800
Speaker 1: the paperwork together. I just had to get it together

1808
01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:08,040
Speaker 1: and I would get I would get a swing. No,

1809
01:31:08,280 --> 01:31:12,080
Speaker 1: I just registered. So www. Dot sam dot gov is

1810
01:31:12,160 --> 01:31:15,400
Speaker 1: the federal government's UM like wheelhouse to register. So once

1811
01:31:15,400 --> 01:31:17,040
Speaker 1: you go in there and you register, which is absolutely

1812
01:31:17,120 --> 01:31:20,519
Speaker 1: free UM, then you're eligible to start looking at contracts,

1813
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:22,840
Speaker 1: bidding on contracts, so on and so forth. Now I

1814
01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 1: don't recommend if you have no idea, you know, no

1815
01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:28,800
Speaker 1: experience whatsoever, just start bidding. But I was already doing

1816
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:31,439
Speaker 1: my trucking thing. So I was ten years in by

1817
01:31:31,479 --> 01:31:33,240
Speaker 1: that point. You have a program where you teach people

1818
01:31:33,760 --> 01:31:36,120
Speaker 1: do it all the time. Break that down. So, I mean,

1819
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:38,640
Speaker 1: there's so many certifications. There's one called the eight A,

1820
01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:41,439
Speaker 1: the letter M, the number eight and the letter A.

1821
01:31:41,840 --> 01:31:44,120
Speaker 1: I'm in that program. This is my fourth year. It's

1822
01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:48,840
Speaker 1: a developmental program for minorities who have disparities. UM that

1823
01:31:48,960 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 1: allows you to actually bypass the bidding process. So my

1824
01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:55,360
Speaker 1: five million dollar contract I got because of that certification.

1825
01:31:55,400 --> 01:32:00,240
Speaker 1: I would have never got that opportunity. That easy about

1826
01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:03,519
Speaker 1: that certification. So you know, you have total small business,

1827
01:32:03,520 --> 01:32:05,439
Speaker 1: which most of us are total small business. You have

1828
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:09,320
Speaker 1: woman owned, economically disadvantaged woman owned hub zone a day.

1829
01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:11,439
Speaker 1: There's a myriad of them. You just have to pick

1830
01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:13,760
Speaker 1: the ones that apply to you and make them work

1831
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:16,120
Speaker 1: for you. And all this information. By the way, it's free,

1832
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:18,439
Speaker 1: it's offering and you can go and do these classes.

1833
01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:20,479
Speaker 1: Those class well, you pay for it with your tax dollars.

1834
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:22,080
Speaker 1: That's what I always say. So you need to make

1835
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,400
Speaker 1: sure you use these resources. And here's the thing to Angelos.

1836
01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:26,280
Speaker 1: So I'm from Virginia, That's where I got all of

1837
01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:29,720
Speaker 1: my training from. In this particular time and setting when

1838
01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:31,880
Speaker 1: I was going after all of these classes. You had

1839
01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:34,040
Speaker 1: to be making two hundred and fifty thousand a year

1840
01:32:34,120 --> 01:32:37,720
Speaker 1: to even get the free government classes. Wow. So let's

1841
01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:39,479
Speaker 1: just say you make seven dollars an hour and you

1842
01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:41,600
Speaker 1: gotta side business. You're able to scrape up you know,

1843
01:32:41,720 --> 01:32:44,799
Speaker 1: sixty thousand growth, you're not even eligible to take the class.

1844
01:32:45,240 --> 01:32:48,040
Speaker 1: So systems are put in place for it to be systematic.

1845
01:32:49,160 --> 01:32:52,320
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. So everybody has, you know, different opportunities.

1846
01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:54,640
Speaker 1: And that's just one. I mean, it's now you have

1847
01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:57,720
Speaker 1: YouTube people on clubhouse talking about government contracts. Fifteen years

1848
01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:00,200
Speaker 1: ago people were not talking about government contracts and body

1849
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,320
Speaker 1: was talking about trucking serio. People get rich off of that.

1850
01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:06,439
Speaker 1: Oh I'm done very well. Yeah, there's companies that can

1851
01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:09,400
Speaker 1: go from being a small company oh yeah, a multimillion

1852
01:33:09,439 --> 01:33:11,280
Speaker 1: dollar company. Oh yeah. And then at that point you

1853
01:33:11,360 --> 01:33:14,559
Speaker 1: have to decide, because if you're making thirty thousand a year,

1854
01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:16,280
Speaker 1: you don't really know what it's like to be in

1855
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:18,840
Speaker 1: charge of seven millions. So each way I thank God

1856
01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:21,320
Speaker 1: for now. Even now I'm like, I don't want to

1857
01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:23,439
Speaker 1: grow my company to one hundred million dollars. That's not

1858
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,640
Speaker 1: what I want to do. You know, it's just a

1859
01:33:25,720 --> 01:33:28,519
Speaker 1: different level of responsibility. Okay, So we appreciate you for
