Speaker 1: You got too much. Man, I'm trying to keep my
Speaker 1: mind off of it, just like being a kid, you know,
Speaker 1: seven year old. Like that was one of the reasons
Speaker 1: why I told people I stepped away from music after
Speaker 1: my last album because it's just like I'm always doing
Speaker 1: this type of stuff and moving around and I'm missing
Speaker 1: out on my family. Like important. I was supposed to
Speaker 1: be there, Like my daughter broke her arm and she
Speaker 1: got like somebody else taking her to the hospital in
Speaker 1: the hospital with it. I'm supposed to be there, right.
Speaker 1: They make me sad talking about you know, your FaceTime
Speaker 1: and what she's a FaceTime and she sleep most of
Speaker 1: the time, you know what I mean. She on the dope.
Speaker 1: They got her on the dope and stuff. She was
Speaker 1: gonna get ready to go. It's dope, man, It's dope.
Speaker 1: It is what it is. I think before FaceTime something
Speaker 1: like that happened and you can at least now that's
Speaker 1: a lot of connection like that to be on the
Speaker 1: face time and see. Modern technology has really helped a
Speaker 1: lot with relationships in general. No for sure. Off top. Well,
Speaker 1: let's talk about the new album, blank Face, blank Face
Speaker 1: seventeen songs. You must have had a lot of songs
Speaker 1: done to be able to pick seventeen. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: we were going to do a deluxe and all that,
Speaker 1: but I'm just like, well I do a deluxe. That's
Speaker 1: like the label stuff that you were in about to
Speaker 1: seal the stuff. I don't care about that stuff, but
Speaker 1: never care about don't damn bottom they put me in
Speaker 1: this position. Don't get a twisted like TD put me
Speaker 1: in this position. I wouldn't be where I'm at without TD.
Speaker 1: Like you know how I know you here because you
Speaker 1: did the song Studio that was a huge hit song
Speaker 1: off the last album, and then I could tell on
Speaker 1: this song you have another hit. What you talked about
Speaker 1: the song with Miguel and Justine tough although you said
Speaker 1: you didn't No, I didn't like it at first because
Speaker 1: look see what I said that the listening party sound it.
Speaker 1: I had to say stuff so brief that came out wrong.
Speaker 1: But I didn't like the song until me get on
Speaker 1: into Stein got on it. I'm the one that acts
Speaker 1: for I was getting the hood. Then we had as
Speaker 1: you can tell, Kendrick still got background vocals. Kendrick is
Speaker 1: in the background too. It's just a little like, nah,
Speaker 1: I'm cool on that, Like y'all know about the forest meter,
Speaker 1: but use Kindrick on one album with the girls song, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can see what time I'm hauging with Dave. I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: that's a bootleg studio. He like, no, it's not. I'm like, bro,
Speaker 1: it's definitely a bootleg studio. I don't think it's sound
Speaker 1: like but nah, I'm the one that was like, get
Speaker 1: me me Gail at least, Yeah, no, what it is
Speaker 1: these bunk ass websites they put it out there. They
Speaker 1: didn't even put Justine name. Schoolboard Q hates the song
Speaker 1: with me Gail I never mentioned, like, I never, but
Speaker 1: also I would have to say it brief, so I
Speaker 1: can understand why they would put it like that. You
Speaker 1: could tell that they're looking for it's a great headline
Speaker 1: and looking like yeah, exactly, but he doesn't like song
Speaker 1: with Miguel. Miguel hit you like I thought you said
Speaker 1: you like girl. We hunted at each other or whatever.
Speaker 1: I was wrong in the situation. I would have been
Speaker 1: like I would have hided letting you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: somebody says something like that to me, ain't nothing you
Speaker 1: can say to me, like, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So I had to highlight him and let him know
Speaker 1: that this better. No, I was like that, I'm just like,
Speaker 1: I'm just like I had to apologize to him because
Speaker 1: it came out wrong. And as a man, you gotta
Speaker 1: know when you're wrong when you when you do something.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I was wrong? How man?
Speaker 1: We just always used to run into each other, and
Speaker 1: I just had a top calling him like I'm not
Speaker 1: about to go ask somebody like Kanye West status, like yo,
Speaker 1: let me get your number. We should do something like
Speaker 1: Kanye is up here, school boy. No, no, not like
Speaker 1: Kanye bro. Kanye is a legend, like he hadn't done
Speaker 1: it over and over and over and over and over
Speaker 1: since I was in like first year out of high school.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, right, you know your playing exactly.
Speaker 1: You don't let I hate when you artists like, no disrespect.
Speaker 1: But if you just got on like you're not even
Speaker 1: made the freshman listen, you ask him for my number
Speaker 1: and you talk about let's go to the wild, let's
Speaker 1: do this. Oh, you should like no, I'm cool, like no,
Speaker 1: like unless it's like unless I know who you are
Speaker 1: and it's dope, like don't just ask me for my number,
Speaker 1: and like no we need to get one, Like no,
Speaker 1: we don't need to get one. I mean still yes
Speaker 1: so much because people confuse gangster rap with no substance. Now,
Speaker 1: but we got the most substance in any artists because
Speaker 1: for the simple fact we're talking about our life. People
Speaker 1: just be talking about what's on the news. I'll be
Speaker 1: hearing Nick to be wrapping double Time and that's bars
Speaker 1: Like now you got better and way more child, I

Speaker 1: I got cool on it face. Yeah, this Michael Jordan
Speaker 1: crying and people thought that was your album cover. You
Speaker 1: put that out there like that for people to think
Speaker 1: that as a joke, Yeah, you really want to do that,
Speaker 1: But you knew, Michael Jordan. The whole thing was, I
Speaker 1: had a cost up behind it because the album is
Speaker 1: obviously called blank Face, and I was supposed to put
Speaker 1: out a bunch of a series of pictures. But you
Speaker 1: put the first one out and everybody jumped on it, like, oh, cut,
Speaker 1: that's the cover. I've never said it was the cover,
Speaker 1: all right, So I'm like, all right, y'all, stupid, not
Speaker 1: my fans. The websites like, like I said, they timz now,
Speaker 1: like you put something out, they want to be the
Speaker 1: first one to do. They want to gossip, they want
Speaker 1: to you know what I mean. So I'm all right,
Speaker 1: these websites are stupid. Did I threw the Donald Trump
Speaker 1: went out and I was like, Deluxe covered Just I'm
Speaker 1: now I'm trolling now because y'all messed my whole thing
Speaker 1: up that I was trying to do. I had a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of pictures. Bro it was the first picture
Speaker 1: we put up. The first two minutes they talked about album.
Speaker 1: But you know, that just means people are excited and
Speaker 1: you put something out and immediately everybody jumps on it.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, this is dam'm covered albums coming. It's
Speaker 1: exciting for people. Now, imagine you put that out and
Speaker 1: nobody said nothing would have been tight because they would
Speaker 1: have got everything I got that I wanted to do
Speaker 1: with it. It would have been tight. But I mean,
Speaker 1: it is what it is. Man. I'm not I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm new to all this media stuff still, Like I
Speaker 1: can tell you that's what you cool here, Like, man,
Speaker 1: I'm not about to come in here like when I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come in here. Y'all know I getting money? Like, now,
Speaker 1: what does the blank face actually symbolize? Because on the album,
Speaker 1: you got a line where you say all lives matter.
Speaker 1: Oh no, people got that and they mixed it up.
Speaker 1: The whole song. First of the song is called black thoughts. Okay,
Speaker 1: the whole song is about crips and bloods. After I
Speaker 1: said all lives matter, I said both sides. So what
Speaker 1: does that give you? What does that bring to you?
Speaker 1: What am I talking about exactly? Which means I'm still
Speaker 1: talking about black lives. I flip the whole little ignorance
Speaker 1: saying all lives matter into making it still black lives.
Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying. People are not dissecting the lyrics.
Speaker 1: People are so easy at listening to the song. Rappers
Speaker 1: are whack. People just hearing they're just like, oh, you
Speaker 1: said all lives matter. You didn't even listen to the
Speaker 1: song black Thoughts. So you said there's only two skin colors?
Speaker 1: Like you know what I mean? Like people always making
Speaker 1: it white in the black thing. It's not about that. Like,
Speaker 1: are you disgusting with the music industry because you keep
Speaker 1: saying these rappers are so whack? Oh? They are like,
Speaker 1: not everybody whack bro, I'll just see what everybody's doing.
Speaker 1: Everybody's trying to make older music, like, oh, I'm trying
Speaker 1: to sound like this dude. I'm trying to sound like
Speaker 1: that dude. Are they doing the same thing? Like I
Speaker 1: don't tune and like everybody that's the new wave now,
Speaker 1: like because of guys like you, because of Kendrick, because
Speaker 1: of Victimns and Chance. I like, I like a lot
Speaker 1: about it. Don't get me wrong. It are the people
Speaker 1: that's dope. But there's so much whacked out there, no content,
Speaker 1: no nothing, and then it makes the listener lazy, like
Speaker 1: everywhere you go, everybody actually, so what do your album mean?
Speaker 1: Before it even drop, like everybody's been asking me what
Speaker 1: does blank face mean? I'm like, you figure it out first,
Speaker 1: it don't even out the week listen to it. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take a crack of this blank face thing. I
Speaker 1: think it means that, like, you don't want to be profiled,
Speaker 1: you don't want to be just you don't want to
Speaker 1: be stereotypes, like don't put me in the boxes. You
Speaker 1: don't know what I am. Part of that's big, that's
Speaker 1: big percentage of what the album in like got it
Speaker 1: albums out right now, make sure you pick it up.

Speaker 1: artists feel weird, like y'all do answer questions not interested

Speaker 1: and say you like guys too, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It was like do both. It was like points where
Speaker 1: they'd be like, you know, it's gonna be times where
Speaker 1: you might have to throw and a dress and at
Speaker 1: that time, at that time, don't get me wrong, I
Speaker 1: thought that's that's what it was like. I just was like, okay,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, but part of me was like,
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna do this. I just when
Speaker 1: I started to be in the streets small and and
Speaker 1: then it was just like I was just gonna leave
Speaker 1: music alone, like forget it. It just kept coming back
Speaker 1: to me. You know, they saved you let something go
Speaker 1: in and come back. It's meant music kept coming back
Speaker 1: to me. People kept him me like, yo, you don't
Speaker 1: do music no more. And I just kept putting out music.
Speaker 1: And I had to get a little more aggressive on
Speaker 1: the track. So I'm like, I don't think they hit
Speaker 1: me like it's what I do, Like this is what
Speaker 1: I've been doing for a long time, Like this ain't new.
Speaker 1: Did you have a question why you did to see
Speaker 1: more LGBT and hip hop? See, I never looked at
Speaker 1: it like that, Like I never look at LGBT when
Speaker 1: when I do music, I don't. I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: stick in that box. You know what I mean? You
Speaker 1: just do music. I just do music. I'll get anything
Speaker 1: stuck in your box, young man. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning, what up y'all? The cj M, D Angela, Ye,
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast club. Make sure
Speaker 1: you donate to UNISF to help save children's lives this
Speaker 1: holiday season. Use your cell phone to dial pound two
Speaker 1: fifty and say the keyword UNISF. That's pound two fifty,
Speaker 1: keyword UNISF to make a donation. MS in the building. Yeah. Also,
Speaker 1: probably fortunate you didn't end up on Empire. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you look like one of Lose his kids. I wasn't
Speaker 1: you know. I wasn't even gonna be his kid on
Speaker 1: the show. I was gonna be the good Yeah. But
Speaker 1: the original name was Betty Bars. They wrote the script
Speaker 1: for me. Wow, it was based off me. Who'd you meet?
Speaker 1: Who'd you know? Over that? I met Lee Daniels face
Speaker 1: to face. No, yeah, while I'm serious though, I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking he I don't know. Nah. I was in
Speaker 1: Swiss Beats office and my manager had low key set
Speaker 1: something up because I already had turned it down before
Speaker 1: I met Lee Danels. I denied it. I was like, nah,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be on it. I'm good, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell y'all why. And we wanted up meeting with
Speaker 1: Swiss Beats in his office and he comes walking in.
Speaker 1: Lee Daniels, I didn't really know who he was, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. At the time, I just was like,
Speaker 1: was just fabulous, man. Yeah, he was real fabulous when
Speaker 1: he walked in, you know what I mean. You could
Speaker 1: tell he got a demeanor about him. He pulls out
Speaker 1: the script. He says, let's go, I'm gonna see with Lee,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I remember I wasn't
Speaker 1: I wasn't doing too good or whatever. So so Swiss
Speaker 1: Beats brought me out to his balcony and was like, yo,
Speaker 1: let's give him. You don't worry about it, being like
Speaker 1: you know, on the show Wolf and like it's a
Speaker 1: script and you gotta read it from the script. He
Speaker 1: was like, just be yourself. So I came back out,
Speaker 1: you know, gave him me. He loved it, but I
Speaker 1: still wasn't really with it because I knew Empire was
Speaker 1: gonna put me in a position where I'm known from
Speaker 1: Empire as this character and I'm not known from Young
Speaker 1: and May from Brooklyn building on on my music. You'd
Speaker 1: have been Betty Boss, I would have been. Anybody would
Speaker 1: have been like right now, you would have called me
Speaker 1: up there, like, let we got Betty Bass on the show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because three the guests it's always free the guests, and
Speaker 1: she cool as out. But I do know, I can't
Speaker 1: remember a real name right now. I'm trying to think, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know her, but it's at of the people that
Speaker 1: know her. But I will say and then I heard,
Speaker 1: but I don't know what her situation is. But I
Speaker 1: know they make you sign a contract and it might
Speaker 1: have something to do with your music. Awesome, I know.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to get too deep in that, but
Speaker 1: that was that was a big reason why Quincy was
Speaker 1: up here. He was saying that he couldn't his father
Speaker 1: did hey would not let him do it. Thank God
Speaker 1: for my lawyer. The contracts just put the ice on
Speaker 1: the cake. Now, how does the young artists build the online?
Speaker 1: But because I would assume your your career really popped
Speaker 1: off because of the internet. Is there a science to it?
Speaker 1: Stay consistent and you know what I mean, they eventually
Speaker 1: wake up. You gotta be nice, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You can't be trashed, of course, but just be consistent. Man,
Speaker 1: how old it take for? Not that long? That's just crazy.
Speaker 1: Video forward and everything to video video was at like
Speaker 1: seven million. Now. I like the fact that your your
Speaker 1: your sexuality is not overshadowing your music. People. It's like
Speaker 1: young Amaz's dope. Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, It's not totally out of the equation. I've
Speaker 1: been sitting with mad labels like Big Dog for the
Speaker 1: past two weeks. Now, I'm just hearing everybody out and
Speaker 1: just trying to make choose my decision wisely. I just
Speaker 1: don't want them to try to change it. I don't
Speaker 1: going to be on some old school like telling you
Speaker 1: dress like this. Man. I think that I got past
Speaker 1: that point already, Like I was in that position in
Speaker 1: my in my life at one point, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, where it was like you might have to
Speaker 1: do this or sound like this or talk about this,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. When I got to a
Speaker 1: point where I just like, I don't care. I'm gonna hey,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be gay, I'm gonna talk about you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. I just got to that point. So
Speaker 1: you can take what you want now, because you have
Speaker 1: going on this if you I'm board with what I'm
Speaker 1: doing in my movement, yeah, and that's it. If you
Speaker 1: can't exactly what she think me, when did you start
Speaker 1: getting it? When you start falling over with the test.
Speaker 1: My first chet was a canoffess my brother. He was
Speaker 1: my older brother. Yeah, and then I just made this
Speaker 1: whole all about him, how he influence you. He was
Speaker 1: the reason why I played football, I was a tomboy
Speaker 1: playing basketball. He probably was the reason why I like girls,
Speaker 1: The biggest influence in my life. Like, so when he died,
Speaker 1: it was like a big rip, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: from from my chest and I just you know, right now,
Speaker 1: just I just make sure I do it in his memory,
Speaker 1: Like this is why I go so hard, And this
Speaker 1: is why nobody can't change my mind on certain because
Speaker 1: I'm stuck with you know, his his memory and my mind.
Speaker 1: So that's the only sibling. Now. I have a little
Speaker 1: sister too, and I have a brother on my father's side.
Speaker 1: But he was kind of the guy that you probably
Speaker 1: could trust them. Most of you have trust? Is who
Speaker 1: you after that? Like, like just trust me? Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: I had a lot of trust issues once I found
Speaker 1: out about that situation. I was already not really a
Speaker 1: trusty type person. Yeah is it just me? What up? Y'all?
Speaker 1: As DJ M v Angela Yee Charlomagne the guy we
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club, the Holidays are a ton forgiving.
Speaker 1: To make a difference and donate to help save children's
Speaker 1: lives this holiday season. Use your soulfon Nadal pound two
Speaker 1: fifty and save the keyword unit Seth. We got a
Speaker 1: special guest in the building, the man of the hour,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, Nate Parkers in the building. What's up?
Speaker 1: What's up? Two things I thought I would never see
Speaker 1: on a Hollywood screen in Loot Cage in any form,
Speaker 1: and Nat Turner in the movie. I've been screaming for
Speaker 1: a Nat Turning movie because I don't like flav movies.
Speaker 1: I've been denounced him. I said, are you gonna make
Speaker 1: any flavor movie, Let it be Nat Turner, because Nat
Speaker 1: Turner wasn't a victim and you got it done. Well,
Speaker 1: let's explain Nat Turner two for people that don't know,
Speaker 1: because I've never learned it in my history books. It
Speaker 1: wasn't It wasn't anything that I've ever read. And I
Speaker 1: went to Hampton University within the HBCU. I've been in
Speaker 1: here to know you from Norfolk? So what made that
Speaker 1: so special to you? That story? Well, a lot of
Speaker 1: it is what you just said. I grew up in Norfolk.
Speaker 1: Forty two miles east of Southampton County where the revolt happened.
Speaker 1: And I never heard about this brother, right, so Wiley,
Speaker 1: Yeah I never heard about Yeah, we learned about it
Speaker 1: growing up, but yeah, I know, I've never learned about
Speaker 1: it in school. Uh. And it's significantly because when you
Speaker 1: think of the proximity, you would think that someone would
Speaker 1: have said something. But it speaks to the danger of
Speaker 1: the revolutionary, you know, the person that looks like us,
Speaker 1: that for its own freedom. We don't get those stories,
Speaker 1: like you said, you know what I mean. Like even
Speaker 1: when we learn about slavery, we learned through the context
Speaker 1: stuff the victim a victim and honest and we laid
Speaker 1: down until honest Abe said enough is enough, you know
Speaker 1: he You know, honest Abe couldn't tell a lie Moden's chin,
Speaker 1: pensive slave problem. We got to figure it out this
Speaker 1: up and now we're free. R. We don't learn about
Speaker 1: you know, Tucson, We don't learn about Denmark VC. We
Speaker 1: don't learn a b you know, we don't learn about
Speaker 1: Gabriel Proser. We don't learn about any of them. Right,
Speaker 1: And so you have to ask yourself, why is that one?
Speaker 1: Why are they one? Our history of being hit the
Speaker 1: things that would empower us, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I mean, even when I was trying to make this film,
Speaker 1: people were like, you make this film, bro, Like it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem, Like, don't make this film like
Speaker 1: black people. Like prominent directors was like, make the story
Speaker 1: of John Brown. You know, John Brown's a white abolition
Speaker 1: to still let a slave revolt. It was like, that'll
Speaker 1: be easier for people to digest, you know. I mean.
Speaker 1: I had another prominent black director told me. He was like, well,
Speaker 1: I liked your script, but I didn't love it. One
Speaker 1: thing would have made me love And I was like,
Speaker 1: what you know, I got my notebook right. He said,
Speaker 1: you need more good white people. Wow. I was like,
Speaker 1: what do you mean? He was like, white people are
Speaker 1: gonna watch that man gonna watch this thing a period
Speaker 1: piece and it was America. And that's the thing. It's like,
Speaker 1: you know, when it comes to other demographics that have
Speaker 1: endured torture and genocide and holocaust and this never forget,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, It's very important that we
Speaker 1: hold those stories up so they never repeat themselves. But
Speaker 1: in this country, we have this this habit of kind
Speaker 1: of closing off the things that don't reflect us in
Speaker 1: the best of lights, you know. So in telling the story,
Speaker 1: you know, I said, man, I learned about that Turner
Speaker 1: twenty one. But if I learned about him at twelve,
Speaker 1: how did you learn about him at twenty one African
Speaker 1: American studies class. You know what I'm saying, like made
Speaker 1: you read the confessions in that turn up? I did
Speaker 1: read that, you know. And it's funny because confessions is fiction,
Speaker 1: you know, that's not That's like I always wonder about that.
Speaker 1: Somebody told me that before. It's well, it won a Pulzer,
Speaker 1: which is was just tricky because it won the Pulsar
Speaker 1: for fiction. But the writer, he said, it's a reimagined
Speaker 1: of Nat Turner's life. It's not Naturner's life. So when
Speaker 1: you read The Fires of Jubilee, you know, or William
Speaker 1: Drewry's book, and in Southampton Insurrection you read the real stuff,
Speaker 1: you're like, wait a minute, well, I need to rid
Speaker 1: the real stuff the Confession INtime. Let me tell you
Speaker 1: how like it's a fiction book with said, okay, well,
Speaker 1: Nat Turner um, he has all of his motivation came
Speaker 1: for his lust after the handmaid of his master. Like
Speaker 1: a white woman, like that's why. And he was crazy,
Speaker 1: he was a fanatic, he was homosexual, like all these
Speaker 1: things that they made up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So when you get to the real you're like, well,
Speaker 1: why would they denigrate his life? Why would they mysticize
Speaker 1: the things that actually happened when they had Like why
Speaker 1: would they make it so he didn't have children or
Speaker 1: didn't have a wife. He had a wife, He had
Speaker 1: a child, you know what I'm saying. So it's like
Speaker 1: the attack of the black man, the demonizing of the
Speaker 1: black man is something it ain't new. This is age old,
Speaker 1: you know. So when we get to celebrate this story,
Speaker 1: you know, like I said, you know a lot of
Speaker 1: people I grew up with with the president not here
Speaker 1: with us today, had that chip on his shoulder and
Speaker 1: had no context as to why or where you know,
Speaker 1: they could put that energy. But he rose when you
Speaker 1: can say oh no, no no, no no, Nat Turner rose,
Speaker 1: So I can stand the colonel with Django the real
Speaker 1: jazz Men and Chris Rock had a debate about that
Speaker 1: because he thought I was trying to insult in that
Speaker 1: Turner by saying that. But the reason I loved Jangles
Speaker 1: because he wasn't a victim Jango Burton the plantage he
Speaker 1: did and he stood up and he was like, Nah,
Speaker 1: it's not happening this way. I'll take it even a
Speaker 1: step further, though. Nat Turner said, I'm going to sacrifice
Speaker 1: on behalf of people that I'll never meet. You get
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like and Biblically it says a good
Speaker 1: man leaves an inheritance for his children's children, right. Nat
Speaker 1: Turner was like, Okay, I'm going to walk to these gallows,
Speaker 1: but I know that what I did will echo into eternity.
Speaker 1: We're celebrating that they scanned him lampshades out of his
Speaker 1: skin in person, like this is what they did. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So it's like, all and they
Speaker 1: did what they did in the name of God. He
Speaker 1: did what he did in the name of God. Well,
Speaker 1: there's certain things that you originally had in the movie
Speaker 1: that you felt like you had to take out. Our
Speaker 1: people said, okay, maybe that's nope, And it goes back
Speaker 1: to your question. Seriously, like you said, I didn't you
Speaker 1: know I went on for money. Everybody that said they
Speaker 1: passed or how did you pay for it? I knocked
Speaker 1: on doors man. You know, I went to school. A
Speaker 1: lot of friends were in finance. You know, one guy
Speaker 1: in particularly I contacted. He connected me to one of
Speaker 1: his friends that actually worked in New York that had
Speaker 1: a hedge fund, and I asked him for the money.
Speaker 1: He said no. I said, okay, that was what you
Speaker 1: ask me for. Millions. You got seven. You're ade seven
Speaker 1: to get it done? Right? Yeah? I rang, as you
Speaker 1: think you needed the budget? Said we needed like thirty
Speaker 1: right to make it. Oh my, it's a battle film.
Speaker 1: They said we needed forty days. We shot in twenty
Speaker 1: seven days. You know what I'm saying. So I knocked
Speaker 1: on doors. I went to anyone who would listen. My
Speaker 1: lowest contribution was like seventy five thousand. My biggest contribution
Speaker 1: was like two million, you know. And the guy that
Speaker 1: gave me the two million, I just I just begged him.
Speaker 1: I stepped away from acting for two years. I thought
Speaker 1: I finished beyond the lights. That Monday, I went into
Speaker 1: my team, was like, I'm not acting anymore, writing anything else.
Speaker 1: I'm not acting anything else, I'm not directing. Don't call me.
Speaker 1: The next skin I live in would be not turned
Speaker 1: a period um. You know, leafing yourself from it was
Speaker 1: a belief in God, like my faith really had. It
Speaker 1: really reeled me in. The first on the grand into
Speaker 1: the film was my own money and that's all I had.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, I ain't a millionaire.
Speaker 1: I'm a thousand air you know what I mean. And
Speaker 1: to put up one hundred grand it hurts, you know
Speaker 1: what I I mean? Talking to my wife, I was like
Speaker 1: this important. Like I didn't know it would be a
Speaker 1: hunt with her stance at this point, because that's baby,
Speaker 1: you ain't working and you want to take everything. And
Speaker 1: we got lights, you know, they got kid and kids
Speaker 1: need to be turned on. But she had faith. Man,
Speaker 1: she was just like, you know, you know the Lord's
Speaker 1: called you to do this. You know I got your back. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know. I was gonna say, like Nat Turner was
Speaker 1: a chosen one from when he was a child. From
Speaker 1: this point, did you feel like you were a chosen
Speaker 1: one in telling this story that it was something that
Speaker 1: you were kind of born to do? I felt like
Speaker 1: it was written on my spirit, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't say I'm chosen. I just felt like,
Speaker 1: you know how you like you know what you know,
Speaker 1: we all struggle and rustle with our faith and trying
Speaker 1: and strong and whatever that means. And uh and I
Speaker 1: was like, you know, Lord, like I feel like you
Speaker 1: want me to tell this story? How many times can
Speaker 1: you get offered crypt number four or blood? At some
Speaker 1: point you're like, man, there's got to be something better,
Speaker 1: you know. And it's like I go a whole year
Speaker 1: and pass on fifty projects and they'd be one great debaters.
Speaker 1: Now I got to compete against the whole world to
Speaker 1: get that and then hope that Denzel see something to
Speaker 1: me that works. At some point you're like, man, well,
Speaker 1: what is the story I want to tell? If I
Speaker 1: can tell any story? I want to be Turner. That's braveheart.
Speaker 1: You never had a brave heart. When we have more
Speaker 1: with Nate Parker when we come back, keep it locked.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, hey, Charlomagne the god here,
Speaker 1: And I just want to wish a Mary Christmas to
Speaker 1: all my credit card scamras out there. Did the season
Speaker 1: to find you a scamera friend, so you can save
Speaker 1: some money in any major department store in America. Breakfast
Speaker 1: Club because you don't need to hesitate. What up, y'allass
Speaker 1: DJ M de Angelie, Charlomagne the guy. We are the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. We're standing with Uni self to give hope

Speaker 1: a difference by donating to help save children's lives. Use
Speaker 1: your cell phone to dive pound two fifty and say
Speaker 1: the keyword Uni Seth. That's pound two fifty, keyword Uni Seth.
Speaker 1: Join the movement and give this holiday season with the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. We have Nate Parker in the building now, Charlomane,
Speaker 1: I honestly don't know who's demonizing you at this point
Speaker 1: because I see it from all angles. Because I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell the story. I remember, maybe a month before I
Speaker 1: saw the movie, had an og triple og in the
Speaker 1: game hit me up, and he goes, look, we got
Speaker 1: to support this film. He said, they're gonna try to
Speaker 1: crucify a Nate Parker. And then two three weeks later,
Speaker 1: all the different allegations came out. It was, oh he
Speaker 1: got a white wife, it was oh he's homophobic, it
Speaker 1: was oh he has rape charges. Did you expect that
Speaker 1: to happen. Let's just say I was warned early on.
Speaker 1: You know, people in the industry, people that love me,
Speaker 1: people that I love that just said, you know, are
Speaker 1: you ready for what may comable with this film? You
Speaker 1: know it's like it's look, I'm gonna say, look, you
Speaker 1: know how you rediscover something you already knew. I've never
Speaker 1: heard anything from a lot, never ran from nobody about us,
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna run now. No one's gonna stop
Speaker 1: me from telling stories. And I think uplifting my people,
Speaker 1: They're just not gonna do it. It can come for me.
Speaker 1: That's okay. I'm I'm a grown up, I'm a man.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm so anchored in the Lord, Bro. My faith
Speaker 1: is so strong that I'm not tripping. I know the
Speaker 1: power of Nat Turner, what he can do for people,
Speaker 1: what he can do for America. What happens if we
Speaker 1: start celebrating Nat Turner as a hero who you know,
Speaker 1: look the African American Museum. Just open Nat Turner's Bible, right,
Speaker 1: George Bush said, you know Nat Turner money, Like what
Speaker 1: happens if if he if it becomes normal to celebrate
Speaker 1: every one of every color that has contribute to the
Speaker 1: narrative of this country, man, things will change. Privilege will
Speaker 1: be challenged, but things will change. Doesn't piss you off
Speaker 1: through because we were watching your Good Morning America and
Speaker 1: you look like, all right, enough is enough? You look
Speaker 1: like you on the screen put some respect on my name,
Speaker 1: because I mean, because they showed some of the stuff
Speaker 1: that you went through when you were in college. You
Speaker 1: look like, come on now, I'll just say this I
Speaker 1: posted out there probably in trouble. It was an ambush,
Speaker 1: you know, just it looked like it looks like what
Speaker 1: the fuck? You know, because this is bigger than me.
Speaker 1: Nat Turner is so much bigger than me, like in
Speaker 1: my in my thirty six year old life and anything
Speaker 1: you could ever dig up or whatever, Nat Turner, did
Speaker 1: you feel like it would be in jeopardy at any
Speaker 1: point the film, Yeah, just with everything coming up, like
Speaker 1: we can't put this out because I remember thinking, oh man,
Speaker 1: are they going to try to not put the movie out? Now?
Speaker 1: There's a there's a verse in the Bible says I
Speaker 1: tell you these things so that you will find peace
Speaker 1: in me. You know, in the world that will be tribulation,
Speaker 1: but be a good cheer. Bible become the world. God
Speaker 1: is God, the same guy that helped me to make
Speaker 1: this film, the same guy that got me through. You know,
Speaker 1: whatever opsles I have in my life, the same God
Speaker 1: has made it so people will be able to gain
Speaker 1: something perspective young people. Fifty years from now, some ten
Speaker 1: year old kid is going to be able to watch
Speaker 1: this film in the same way that that they use
Speaker 1: the original Birth of a Nation as a recruitment tool
Speaker 1: for the KKK. We're gonna use it as a recruitment
Speaker 1: tool for revolution and resistance, for people that recognize something
Speaker 1: needs to change that's bigger than me. If I died
Speaker 1: today and the film can live, I'm not tripping. I'm good, bro.
Speaker 1: I'm in such peace right now because this film exists.
Speaker 1: So for me, it's kind of like, Okay, well cool,
Speaker 1: let's get the film out. Okay, cool, all right, fine,
Speaker 1: let's get the film out. Okay, yeah, next question, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think we've all been guilty of it. It judges
Speaker 1: your character. You know, when we hit in Nate Parker,
Speaker 1: we hear this accusation, his friend is this his friend?
Speaker 1: Is that? That has to affect you in a way
Speaker 1: because now people who don't know you might look at
Speaker 1: you at a different light. But guess what, we gotta
Speaker 1: we gotta rise up to the ten thousand foot view, right,
Speaker 1: Like when you're in a moment and you're set on fire,
Speaker 1: it's easy to be like, oh my god, I'm on fire, right,
Speaker 1: But when you rise up to the ten thousand foot
Speaker 1: view and you see the Lord's resume, everything that's happening
Speaker 1: up until that moment, and you're looking forward and say, Okay,
Speaker 1: this moment will cause a reaction forward, then then you realize, look,
Speaker 1: this is bigger than my character. People will get to
Speaker 1: know me, You'll get to know my heart, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. I'm cool with that. I'm cool. I
Speaker 1: didn't know you guys until I knew you. I didn't
Speaker 1: know you until I knew you. If I could go
Speaker 1: out and meet every single person in glad hand and
Speaker 1: shake their hand, would I do? Yeah? I can't do that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let my art, let my activism speak in
Speaker 1: ways that my mouth on these shows with these headline
Speaker 1: hunters and these clickbait people, I'm gonna let them do
Speaker 1: that thing. I'm not tripping on the news. I feel
Speaker 1: this is just me talking. I feel like it was
Speaker 1: a conspiracy by some powers that be the relator release
Speaker 1: of the film, because all of this information has been
Speaker 1: out there, it's been public, you have found not guilty,
Speaker 1: you spoke about it before. Why now? That's all I
Speaker 1: wanted to like, why why now? You know what? You know?
Speaker 1: There's some people that say, you know, why me? And
Speaker 1: then there's some people that say, well, what can come
Speaker 1: out of this moment? You know? And I try to
Speaker 1: be the latter. I try to be the person that says,
Speaker 1: regardless of the moment, what can change because of these actions?
Speaker 1: Because look, if people forever kick dirt on me forever,
Speaker 1: but this film exists by itself, and then a hundred
Speaker 1: years when I'm dead and gone, they got this film.
Speaker 1: We win. We all win. And if we releases film
Speaker 1: right and all the old heads see it, all the
Speaker 1: old heads are like, yeah, we get it. We're moving forward.
Speaker 1: And the kid in Best started the fifteen year old
Speaker 1: kids don't know who that turner is still Oakland or
Speaker 1: kid in Decatur don't doesn't know. We lose. So I
Speaker 1: reached out to the dopest artist I could find, Gucci
Speaker 1: Maine and talk to them on the phone. I said, brother,
Speaker 1: I know you care about your care. I haven't heard
Speaker 1: the music, so I'm not gonna judge, but I didn't understand,
Speaker 1: but you gotta you gotta hear the music. That's the thing. Look,
Speaker 1: look guess what Gucci got the streets, little Wayne got.
Speaker 1: I don't have the streets. And even to every listen,
Speaker 1: everyone is on message. It's kind of crazy. You got
Speaker 1: two chains on message talking about go up to the
Speaker 1: state House tell them to provise a system. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. It's like if you can get them
Speaker 1: on message, because I as you know music in a
Speaker 1: waysman corporate times. You know a lot of them. You
Speaker 1: know the politics around making music and who we're making
Speaker 1: it for them, who's consuming it. A lot of times
Speaker 1: it doesn't help our people. A lot of times in
Speaker 1: this country. They give a little bit to a few
Speaker 1: and then tell those few times kinda be happy with
Speaker 1: what you got and turn your back and your power
Speaker 1: against the people that needed the most. I mean, the
Speaker 1: things that happened, it happens in my industry too. So
Speaker 1: if I can get people that do care about the
Speaker 1: community but don't have the platform to release it. So
Speaker 1: I had the chance to sit with all these these guys,
Speaker 1: you know, Vic Mensa, all of them, you know, Trace Songs, Neo.
Speaker 1: Everyone is on message talking about the system talking about
Speaker 1: a fresh and talking about faith. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like Little Wayne was like I got to feed the family,
Speaker 1: but I had to leave the family. I left for CNB.
Speaker 1: I'm an empathy, but I would never leave Christianity. I
Speaker 1: heard it gets submitted a track, but you turned it down.
Speaker 1: I didn't turn anything down. You know, it's like anything else.
Speaker 1: Things like everyone that wants to be on your show
Speaker 1: can't get a show you get really submitted a track? No,
Speaker 1: whoa no, No. I'm saying that. I'm trying to be fair.
Speaker 1: A lot of people submitted albums, but we really you know,
Speaker 1: when you track list, when you make a trackle, you
Speaker 1: want to make sure everything fits. NAS has an incredible
Speaker 1: song called war See that's on brand. Huh Na, why
Speaker 1: would you do something obvious? You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like at some point like if I can get lu Wayne,
Speaker 1: you know, to talk about the streets in the context
Speaker 1: of a message. And then a young person was like,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, just say that right what I'm jealous?
Speaker 1: DJ M v Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are
Speaker 1: the breakfast Club. You have one more day to make
Speaker 1: your tax deductible donation in two thousand and sixteen. Make
Speaker 1: you see your tax deductible donation before it's too late.
Speaker 1: With this easy UNISEF donation. Use your cell phone to
Speaker 1: dial pound two fifty and say the keyword UNISF. That's
Speaker 1: pound two fifty, keyword UNISF to make a donation. We
Speaker 1: have Nate Parker in the building. Now tell me, are
Speaker 1: you I don't want to say concerned that this movie
Speaker 1: will cause some type of revolte now because this could,
Speaker 1: this could be a dangerous time to put this movie.
Speaker 1: Let me be clear. It's a quotable. I hope it
Speaker 1: makes people uncomfortable. I hope that it inspires a riot's
Speaker 1: dis position. Now do I want violence? Absolutely not. We're
Speaker 1: above that. Now, why do we need to be violent?
Speaker 1: When we got journalists, we got radio personalities that have power.
Speaker 1: We have social media, but that's not like the same
Speaker 1: old song. The media is not, but everything else I
Speaker 1: like the same That Turner had ax handles and broomsticks, right,
Speaker 1: and he didn't have the right to as symbol. So
Speaker 1: what's that mean? That means what we're doing right now
Speaker 1: in this room would have been illegal and we would
Speaker 1: all have been lunched right. Well, we do have a
Speaker 1: white man in the room. Oh good, good, good, I
Speaker 1: couldn't see your whole face good. As soon as I
Speaker 1: said that, he was like, no, you're wrong, but the right.
Speaker 1: We didn't underrate this symbol. It's right here, dead right.
Speaker 1: Not turner out of that only tools he had it
Speaker 1: is only yeah. He couldn't have been like, I'm calling
Speaker 1: the meeting everyonnd the plantation. We're gonna strike, We're gonna
Speaker 1: protest and walk around the main house like you didn't
Speaker 1: couldn't do nothing. So he fought and whatn't in the
Speaker 1: tools he had? You look now right? If we I
Speaker 1: mean the power we had, you look like Colin Kaepernick,
Speaker 1: like the I always say when athletes get involved, it's
Speaker 1: around like things are going to change because we're messing
Speaker 1: with the money. You get what I'm saying. So if
Speaker 1: nothing else, they walk out of that film and says,
Speaker 1: I'm going to use my occupation to spearhead the systemic
Speaker 1: crisis I see in my own life, my own community.
Speaker 1: Things will change immediately. Does that mean marching maybe? Does
Speaker 1: it mean more than marching? Does it mean some people saying, Noah,
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna do that. I'm gonna walk into my
Speaker 1: producer and tell him I'm not saying that thing ever again.
Speaker 1: What in sacrificing somebody get fired? You know? Is it?
Speaker 1: Whatever your occupation, what is your contribution? I want you know.
Speaker 1: The biggest difference I believe between the civil rights movement
Speaker 1: of old and the civil rights movements of new is
Speaker 1: that people aren't willing to die. Anything has ever anything
Speaker 1: and done anything for our community that actually resolved in progress.
Speaker 1: I had to take a bullet to their head. The
Speaker 1: good thing about the movie, too, is like when you
Speaker 1: say systemic oppression, I like that because it's not just
Speaker 1: saying white people, because they had to go battle against
Speaker 1: their own on the side of systemic oppression as well. Right,
Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. Brother Frederick Douglas has this dope core
Speaker 1: where he says, when I became free, I begin to
Speaker 1: see the effects lave we had not only on slave
Speaker 1: but on slave masters. Right like we all of everyone
Speaker 1: around us has been passed down something this tum this trauma,
Speaker 1: this wound that we won't he let he or we
Speaker 1: won't face it. We just won't because it's too uncomfortable,
Speaker 1: too painful. And how many times you hear someone say
Speaker 1: like in politics. You know, we got to have the
Speaker 1: race of conversation. Have you ever had the race conversation
Speaker 1: with like, like, have we haven't been? Like, okay, everyone,
Speaker 1: this is race conversation Day. Race conversation Day is gonna
Speaker 1: be October ten. Right, call your friends, order pizza, you know,
Speaker 1: and coke and in Coca Cola and come over to right,
Speaker 1: come over to the house. Headline like, encourage people, No,
Speaker 1: come over, We're gonna have a conversation on race. Invite
Speaker 1: people that don't look like you when come to the
Speaker 1: table's gonna eat and be like, yo, so race, like
Speaker 1: you know what black privilege? When what you think? No
Speaker 1: one's having that conversation, right, yeah, you know so at
Speaker 1: some point, you know, they say, have you always do
Speaker 1: what you're always done? You always get what you always got.
Speaker 1: America's always doing what they've always done. That's shutting people up,
Speaker 1: that's attacking the people that resist, and that's a problem
Speaker 1: for America. I always say, a healthier Black community, healthier
Speaker 1: Latino community, is a healthier United States of America. Do
Speaker 1: you think your past rape chargers will cause people not
Speaker 1: to see this movie with an objective eye? Because I
Speaker 1: saw an article in the New Yorker, where the author
Speaker 1: didn't give it the best review, but it kept mixing
Speaker 1: you with the movie, and I'm like, listen, listen, presume
Speaker 1: dangerous and guilty. Presume dangerous and guilty, like that's you know,
Speaker 1: the attack is the attack? You know? You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I think anyone that thinks it's important to
Speaker 1: hear stories that have been a race from history that
Speaker 1: can aid in our progress as America, he needs to
Speaker 1: see this film, in my humble opinion, right to take
Speaker 1: me out of it. Whatever you feel about me, whatever
Speaker 1: you feel about my acquittal, whatever you feel about my innocence,
Speaker 1: or whatever you just for a second recognize if you
Speaker 1: call yourself a patriot, I think you have to take
Speaker 1: steps toward healing America. And if this film stands for
Speaker 1: something like that outside out of me, then let's have
Speaker 1: that conversation. Let's let's not take the baggage of whatever
Speaker 1: you've read in a headline and just say I'm gonna
Speaker 1: see what the film does. You know, black man, ever
Speaker 1: be not guilty in America. Even you're you're acquitted, you're
Speaker 1: not guilty. But even when he was on sixty minutes,
Speaker 1: they was like, you should have apologized. I'm like, but
Speaker 1: he's maintained his innocence. Thing I found not guilty. What
Speaker 1: do you want to apologize for? Um, it's it's it's
Speaker 1: it's a it's a question worth asking. But at the
Speaker 1: same time, I think that we're more concerned about how
Speaker 1: we've been conditioned to see ourselves and less concerned about
Speaker 1: how other people see us, then we'll be able to
Speaker 1: really deal with crisis. We have to make ourselves smaller,
Speaker 1: bigger picture that Turner made himself small. You know, it
Speaker 1: doesn't say a good man make sure his name is
Speaker 1: good when he dies, Like I'm not tripping on me.
Speaker 1: You know, everything I'm doing, I'm doing for my children
Speaker 1: and my children's children, so that when they look up
Speaker 1: at that image of me wherever it is, and I'm
Speaker 1: in hopefully looking fly in the oil painting, they can
Speaker 1: be like, you know what, man, my dad tried. You know,
Speaker 1: my great, great great you know whatever, he tried to
Speaker 1: do something, he tried to deal with it. Even if
Speaker 1: they say they came for him. Whatever we try to
Speaker 1: do something, they definitely try to divide. But that ain't
Speaker 1: new man, That ain't like all I'm saying is can
Speaker 1: we try to start with women and African American women
Speaker 1: and have women against you? And then you know with
Speaker 1: with the headlines, they definitely try to divide. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean it's it's interesting to me that a black man
Speaker 1: can't be black if he's married to a white woman.
Speaker 1: That's the picture they try to paint. All I'm saying
Speaker 1: is this, Look at my resume. Do I care about
Speaker 1: black people? Do I care about systemic oppression? Have I
Speaker 1: dedicated anything to raising all ships when it comes to
Speaker 1: progressing a conversation around America? Um, I don't have to
Speaker 1: answer that question, you know what I mean? I will
Speaker 1: continue like I said, No one's gonna take take my seat.
Speaker 1: What I believe the Lord is putting me to to
Speaker 1: do for our community, to do for our country. I'm
Speaker 1: just staying the course and staying focused, man, and the
Speaker 1: hope that you know the next what's the next project?
Speaker 1: You know, That's what I was going to ask you,
Speaker 1: what's next to an eight? Parker? Now after you put
Speaker 1: out such a huge movie, come with Tyler Perry because
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to listen. All right, Look, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say this publicly. All right, leave Tyler Perry alone. He's
Speaker 1: a friend of mine. And uh he's a good brother.
Speaker 1: He's give me some money. He did not give me money. Um,
Speaker 1: but he's a good brother. He's a good you know.
Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm gonna do next. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do, you know, whatever makes me as passionate about,
Speaker 1: you know, doing the work in the yard as this has.
Speaker 1: You know, like I said, I stepped away two years
Speaker 1: to really get it together. Um so the next thing,
Speaker 1: who knows, the next thing might take eight more years.
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, my arts are functioned my activism. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm not tripping on Hollywood. Are not tripping on money
Speaker 1: by tripping on awards Like I just want to wake
Speaker 1: folks up. I can get a ten year old kid
Speaker 1: to have a you know, walking out the street playing
Speaker 1: with his friends. I'm not Turner. We win. That's the
Speaker 1: biggest win of them all. So yeah, until he chasing
Speaker 1: four little white kids come. We really appreciate it. I
Speaker 1: appreciate y'all. Thank you for the time, man for his club.
Speaker 1: Good morning. What up y'all? Is TJ. M. Gobody name
Speaker 1: of Charlomagne Gut and we just want to say happy
Speaker 1: holidays from all three of us, all three of y'all.
Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club control Charlom Mayne say the gang, don't
Speaker 1: get out the shape man. You aren't you donkey today?
Speaker 1: Just not discriminate. I might not have the song of today,
Speaker 1: but I got to donkey that gay. So if you
Speaker 1: ever feel I need to be a donkey man, give
Speaker 1: it with the Breakfast Club bitches. They just don't give
Speaker 1: today today. Yes, donkey today. He goes to g OP
Speaker 1: nominee Donald J. Trump. Now, listen, I don't do selective morality.
Speaker 1: Even though I'm giving Trump this donkey, I'd be a
Speaker 1: hypocrite acting like I haven't talked like this about women.
Speaker 1: But I'm not running for leader of the free world,
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump is. Therefore he got to get this.
Speaker 1: He hard. Now. I'm sure you've heard Donald Trump's comments
Speaker 1: about grabbing on pussycats. But if you have it, we
Speaker 1: got the clip right here. You go. I gotta get
Speaker 1: some kickcats. Just think it's just a kissinger. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm automatically attracted the beautiful. I just started kissing them.
Speaker 1: It's like a magnet. And when you're a start, then
Speaker 1: let you do it. You can do anything whatever you
Speaker 1: want grab brothers. Now, let's be clip. That's sexual assault.
Speaker 1: It may not seem like it because a lot of
Speaker 1: that behavior we have normalized in our society. But if you,
Speaker 1: you know, welcome to a girl and kiss it without
Speaker 1: her consent, a God forbid, welcome to her and grab
Speaker 1: her a pussycat without consent, that's a charge, sir. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you have ever grabbed a woman's asking the club
Speaker 1: or at school without her consent, that's sexual assault. I know,
Speaker 1: I know you don't look at it like that because
Speaker 1: it's been so normalized what it is now for me.
Speaker 1: I watched Trump on Friday night make those comments, and
Speaker 1: I laughed and I said death foul. But immediately my
Speaker 1: conscience kicked in and said, you are being a hypocrite
Speaker 1: right now because you have said worse publicly and privately
Speaker 1: about women. So I told myself, damn, you're right. This
Speaker 1: is a moment to learn. It's a classic example of
Speaker 1: a mirror effect. Okay, we look at somebody marrying and
Speaker 1: displaying the same behavior that you have, and you get
Speaker 1: to see yourself in a different light. All these Trump
Speaker 1: comments did was make me want to monitor how I
Speaker 1: speak to and about women. Now, why are these comments
Speaker 1: so dangerous coming from Trump? Because power corrupts, and absolute
Speaker 1: power corrupts absolutely, and Donald Trump is running for the
Speaker 1: most powerful position in the land. Okay, Donald Trump already
Speaker 1: has a level of privilege because he's filthy, rich, a
Speaker 1: reality star, and he's a white male. Okay, those three combinations.
Speaker 1: What makes him feel like he can sexually assault a
Speaker 1: woman simply because he can? All right, you don't want
Speaker 1: to give somebody like that the keys to the largest
Speaker 1: military in the world. But why are we still surprised
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump's antics. He's not a politician, He's a
Speaker 1: reality show star and he's been acting like one this
Speaker 1: whole time. But we keep putting lipstick on this pig
Speaker 1: and acting like it's not a pig. He's not a
Speaker 1: politician just because he's a GOP nominee. It means nothing.
Speaker 1: I can stand in a garage in a parking space,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean I'm a car. Okay. He's grabbing
Speaker 1: by the pussycat comments is just the latest brick and
Speaker 1: a wall of wildness that Donald Trump has been building
Speaker 1: since this campaign started. And you know why none of
Speaker 1: this seems to hurt Trump's momentum. You know, because he's
Speaker 1: not a politician and everybody knows that he's a reality star,
Speaker 1: we're really not even grading him on the same scale
Speaker 1: we wore a real politician. This is why I feel
Speaker 1: sorry for Hillary Clinton, love hater. She is the most
Speaker 1: experienced person for the presidency. But I feel sorry for
Speaker 1: her because we have to watch her try to prove
Speaker 1: herself against the executive producer of Celebrity Apprentice. Watching her
Speaker 1: debate Donald Trump is like watching Lebron James try to
Speaker 1: prove to America that he's a great basketball player by
Speaker 1: playing one on one against Peter Griffin from Family Guy.
Speaker 1: Like it's not even remotely a fair matchup, but for
Speaker 1: whatever reason, America has made it that and I don't
Speaker 1: understand why, but we're here now. If Donald Trump loses
Speaker 1: this election, this will by farb He's the funniest, most
Speaker 1: entertaining presidential campaign we have ever seen. But if he wins,
Speaker 1: this will be no laughing matter. In fact, if Donald
Speaker 1: Trump wins, on a damn thing be funny. So in November,
Speaker 1: I want you to go out and vote, Go out
Speaker 1: and grab this selection by the pussycat, be like Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: and don't ask for consent when it comes to voting.
Speaker 1: Grab America's destiny by the pussycat, and let's end this
Speaker 1: joke called Trump once and for all. Please give Donald J.
Speaker 1: Trump the biggest see hull. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: guys saw Giuliani trying to defend him. Awesome, Now you're
Speaker 1: not even listening to Juliana's nothing to start telling him?
Speaker 1: Said that, and relax, And yes, I will be monitoring
Speaker 1: my rhetoric towards women. I will monitor what I say
Speaker 1: to and about them. And I don't want to hear that.
Speaker 1: You know, Oh, Charlotte man, you're not running for president. Talk.
Speaker 1: I don't care if you're running for president. I don't
Speaker 1: care if you're a radio personality or rapper or barber
Speaker 1: or garbage man, doesn't matter. We can all do better
Speaker 1: when it comes to how we talk to and about women.
Speaker 1: Absolutely well, thank you for that dog in today, sir. Yes,
Speaker 1: my Hawaiian brother, we found out yesterday that dj v's Hawaiian.
Speaker 1: By the way, everything we did, we I think he
Speaker 1: did one of those ancestry tests and we found out
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah, we found out you Hawaiian. I'm not Hawaiian,
Speaker 1: So you did that ancestry Testian a Hawaiian. What's it
Speaker 1: called twenty three? What is it called? Again? I forgot

Speaker 1: hit that goal. We need to give and we need
Speaker 1: to get big. Now we didn't even introduce you some

Speaker 1: thank you? There we go, there we go. Come on, guys,
Speaker 1: and you need you know, we all had a really
Speaker 1: good holiday and this is our chance to do something
Speaker 1: for somebody else. And there are kids around the world
Speaker 1: today that really need your help. Pound to five keyword
Speaker 1: unisf make a gift, That's what I mean. This is
Speaker 1: a great present to actually give someone because can I
Speaker 1: like donate in somebody else's name? Also, absolutely absolutely you
Speaker 1: can definitely do that, you know, pound two five keyword
Speaker 1: Unif you can make a gift in someone's honor. You
Speaker 1: can make a gift yourself. You can make the difference
Speaker 1: for child your Christmas past, so you can do it
Speaker 1: for like a New Year's resolution, a New Year's resolution.
Speaker 1: That's right. I love that you think people think it's
Speaker 1: the holiday so that they don't think they can give
Speaker 1: as much because they've got other things on their mind,
Speaker 1: like presence and stuff like that. Yeah, you know, I
Speaker 1: think especially right after Christmas, we're all sitting there with
Speaker 1: the wrapping paper, you know, wrapping it up, throwing away,
Speaker 1: they getting it together exactly and the year giving before
Speaker 1: that little tax break exactly right right at the end
Speaker 1: of the year, it's gone count for your taxes. That's right.
Speaker 1: This is the time to do it. And also, you know,
Speaker 1: I know in my house, I looked around on that
Speaker 1: morning and I thought, how lucky you're weak. You know,
Speaker 1: I've got my kids surrounding me. I've got my husband
Speaker 1: sitting next to me. We're going to have a big dinner.
Speaker 1: And I know for kids around the world that's just
Speaker 1: not happening. And donations or you can write it off
Speaker 1: on taxes for people out there, right, you can totally
Speaker 1: write it off on taxes and ninety cents of every
Speaker 1: dollar week collect goes to the children around the world.
Speaker 1: That it was a rumor that your CEO was making
Speaker 1: over a million dollars a year. That totally not true,
Speaker 1: totally not you know, And that rumor said I was
Speaker 1: driving rolls roy So I'll tell you when that got
Speaker 1: texted out, I took a picture of me driving my
Speaker 1: priests and I texted it back and I said, this
Speaker 1: is how I roll fire your fact checker. And the
Speaker 1: person who texted that out said that he would make
Speaker 1: a gift. I'm still waiting stuff make stories come from.
Speaker 1: I hate stuff like that because I feel like public
Speaker 1: servants should be treated like that, like teachers. There's people
Speaker 1: like you, military people. They should be millionaires, like they
Speaker 1: should be writing around in fanoms and stuff like that too.
Speaker 1: They would give them money to whatever. But I'm saying
Speaker 1: we should treat them like that, and I think the
Speaker 1: services should be free. But that's a whole other story.
Speaker 1: Well there we go. You know, no, you know, listen,
Speaker 1: I make a great seller. You can check it out
Speaker 1: on our nine nineties. It's pub with knowledge. We're a
Speaker 1: public trust. But at the same time, you know, for
Speaker 1: people to make up rumors about nonprofits. I don't think
Speaker 1: they understand when you spread that, right, you you cost lives.
Speaker 1: You cost actual lives. Person who would have made a gift,
Speaker 1: who doesn't. One dollar buys enough clean drinking water to
Speaker 1: keep a kid alive for twenty days. Wow, So we
Speaker 1: lose one dollar twenty days. Wow. All right, So every
Speaker 1: gift amount counts, every donation that you can make counts.
Speaker 1: Right now, we have one day right to meet our goal.
Speaker 1: One day. One day. We're gonna do it too. Okay,
Speaker 1: listeners out there, we're gonna do this right now. Tell
Speaker 1: them a pound two five zero keyword una stuff. Okay, perfect,
Speaker 1: And you can take what's the minimum you can give.

Speaker 1: all right, yeah, grand over the gradhol All right, Well
Speaker 1: there you have it. We're good. We're good. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: what about on my notes? Were good? That's it? Quick breast,
Speaker 1: Well that's the breakfast. If you ever good morning, good morning. Well,
Speaker 1: if you just joined the bird man came up here,
Speaker 1: the interview didn't go that way. You know what was
Speaker 1: gonna go that way? From our understanding behind the scenes,
Speaker 1: he wanted to just come and address some things. He
Speaker 1: wanted to come, and they said he was excited to come,
Speaker 1: that he wanted to come talk to us, that he
Speaker 1: wanted to get some things off the chest, and he did.
Speaker 1: So let's actually play because we were you know, as
Speaker 1: soon as you walk into this this room, we start
Speaker 1: taping immediately because we never because it's always some good
Speaker 1: stuff before after, and let's play. Let's say this is
Speaker 1: what happened when Burman as soon as he walk walk there,
Speaker 1: Yes there, I won't start this, ya straight. All three
Speaker 1: of y'all stopped playing with my name. Let's go on there,
Speaker 1: let's go. Stop playing with my name. Do it on camera.
Speaker 1: Stop playing with my name, with my name, come on,
Speaker 1: respect it. I playing with my name. All three of y'all,
Speaker 1: stop playing with my name. I ain't gonna say it,
Speaker 1: no mope if we go, warning everybody it is DJ
Speaker 1: m zy Angela Yee trying to me. Now. The reason
Speaker 1: I kept saying let's go because the cameraman was taking
Speaker 1: the time. You don't wait, do a good conscience, like
Speaker 1: let's go. You will not coming here. Cursh us out,
Speaker 1: We're not gonna get the radio. We would trying to
Speaker 1: take the quick cameman would taking his time. But what
Speaker 1: happened with Burtman camera here. He tried to curush us
Speaker 1: out and shake up the interview before the interview started,
Speaker 1: thinking that the interview would be but it wouldn't have been.
Speaker 1: We just still ask the questions we wanted to ask. Well,
Speaker 1: you try to do the intimidation thing. Came in here
Speaker 1: with like seven guys, you know, and my thing is yo,
Speaker 1: anything I've ever said about a person on the radio.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say today's face. So I'm thinking, if you're
Speaker 1: coming here, you coming here to address those issues right
Speaker 1: that there? To me, that was some suffer that that's
Speaker 1: anything we do a pre we did, we talk about
Speaker 1: you or make a comment about you. When you come up,
Speaker 1: people gonna make that same comment. And like, i' I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't like the coming up here
Speaker 1: just trying to show out on people. Try to plan
Speaker 1: to come up here and do certain things. Don't don't
Speaker 1: don't try to be tough to the radio guys, especially
Speaker 1: when people like Trick Daddy has been up here. Trick Daddy,
Speaker 1: you have to say about bird Man, let's I've dumped
Speaker 1: in this with bird Man. Summer good and Summer's bad.
Speaker 1: I just think when when you trying to be a
Speaker 1: CEO and you try to be a rapper, and you
Speaker 1: try to be a ladies man, and you try to
Speaker 1: be a girlfriend, and you're trying to be a girlfriend
Speaker 1: and a blood trying to be a girlfriend a girlfriend.
Speaker 1: I don't know that's what they see. I got it
Speaker 1: from the three okay, and Ross was up here between
Speaker 1: Wayne and him and he spoke about it. What's ledge
Speaker 1: with Berman? I don't have one with Burdman. For me
Speaker 1: to see the way things are transpiring, I can't respect that,
Speaker 1: and I don't respect Have you had that convo with
Speaker 1: Burdman boss to boss, like you need to treat your
Speaker 1: people better? Not at all? I mean that's what I
Speaker 1: wanted to build my team after the way their kids
Speaker 1: was molding together, the way their family was so for
Speaker 1: me to see this, that's a no go. They know
Speaker 1: how I play, Berman know how I get down. He
Speaker 1: was in Miami a long time. He knows double M

Speaker 1: season with the Breakfast Club. What do you think about
Speaker 1: Birdman's approach? I'm starting the room. I was kind of
Speaker 1: geeked that because they called me a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: ago and they said Birdman wanted to do the interview,
Speaker 1: and I was I was hyped. I was like, that's great.
Speaker 1: It would be great for the culture, you know, because
Speaker 1: we don't really get to talk to Birdman and see
Speaker 1: the history and see everything that's going on for him
Speaker 1: not paying his artists, alleged league to you know, him
Speaker 1: kissing Wayne, alleged league to all that stuff. They called
Speaker 1: me at four in the morning and said, are you
Speaker 1: gonna be here on this day Birdman wants to come.
Speaker 1: I said absolutely, because I mean, listen, I have no
Speaker 1: problem with the confrontation. Confrontations ain't never scared me in
Speaker 1: no way, shape or form. Anything I said about you
Speaker 1: on the radio, I'm gonna say to your face. Period.
Speaker 1: So I wasn't on that, but I thought that it
Speaker 1: would have went better than that. But I always say,
Speaker 1: you can never tell somebody how to react. So I
Speaker 1: can't sit here and say that the way he reacted
Speaker 1: was wrong. I just don't respect it, because if you
Speaker 1: got an issue, let's talk about the issue. Don't come
Speaker 1: in here with seven dude trying to intimidate people. Because
Speaker 1: you ain't pull up on ross like that. You can't
Speaker 1: pull up on a trick like that. Don't pull up
Speaker 1: on the radio guys that can tough. I cannot stand
Speaker 1: when these artists coming here and try to act tough
Speaker 1: with us. Go act tough with the people that's out
Speaker 1: here acting tough. Okay, I don't do that. You got
Speaker 1: your notes, are prepared, and you was already like. Here's
Speaker 1: the thing. I don't understand what he's mad about, because
Speaker 1: I feel like, if you really don't mess with us,
Speaker 1: then you shouldn't have came up here. I can see
Speaker 1: why he's mad, but I'm saying you shouldn't have came
Speaker 1: you And if you are to come up here and confront.
Speaker 1: If you want to confront, let's have a conversation. Now.
Speaker 1: I don't feel like I've ever spoken part. I've interviewed
Speaker 1: Bert Man before we do at my former job. Great interview,
Speaker 1: and I was very prepared for this one. I had
Speaker 1: a lot of things we wanted to talk about discuss,
Speaker 1: but I thought it was gonna be great. But I'm
Speaker 1: think and maybe in the room of report there's certain
Speaker 1: things that I don't make up, but maybe I know.
Speaker 1: For me, I talked about him breaking up in Wayne
Speaker 1: and then hooking up a thug, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: We never stopped talking about him kissing Wayne in his mouth,
Speaker 1: artists that you know, artists, and bills that he allegedly
Speaker 1: doesn't paid. We've definitely discussed that. You know. I got
Speaker 1: cast from his people yesterday saying that he was upset
Speaker 1: because he feels like whenever I say things like why
Speaker 1: would you sign with bird Man, don't say nobody and
Speaker 1: messages his business stuff. I can understand that that's understandable,
Speaker 1: but you know, I didn't care. I wanted him to
Speaker 1: come up here and cleared up, and me and bird
Speaker 1: was cool. We were on told with each other. He
Speaker 1: actually offered me a deal last year to signed me
Speaker 1: to the cash money. I remember that you're offrom me
Speaker 1: a deal, and I talked to him about day elect
Speaker 1: trying to come previously he had wanted to sign him
Speaker 1: because he's from New Orleans. Also, I don't know. So
Speaker 1: let's go to the full lord. Hello, who's this yo? Yo?
Speaker 1: From the d Man? What's straight entertainment? But what do
Speaker 1: you think about Birdman's approach Man? Was it justified? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I know he cameras and anything. I mean, you felt
Speaker 1: like see me in the streets. He should have just
Speaker 1: kept the interview he had to say. But it's all
Speaker 1: about entertainments, just like I mean, I'm a broad fan
Speaker 1: of for Life. But it's entertainment. It's the media industry.
Speaker 1: It's a disgusting business. I wish you would have cleared
Speaker 1: everything up. I wish we'd have had the chance to
Speaker 1: talk to him about all those things. I don't ever
Speaker 1: want to talk to bird Man. I'm cool on Burdman.
Speaker 1: He was calling me yesterday trying to get us on
Speaker 1: the phone. All that. I'm good. I didn't know. I
Speaker 1: didn't know Burdman before this. I don't need to know
Speaker 1: Burdman after this. God bless him. I wish him the best.
Speaker 1: I'm cool on bird Man. I spoke to Burdman after that,
Speaker 1: and he did apologize and he said he would love
Speaker 1: to come back up here and talk to us, and
Speaker 1: he said he wanted to talk to you face to
Speaker 1: face as well. No, that is that wasn't happening. And
Speaker 1: they called me for that yesterday too, they wanted to
Speaker 1: meet face to face. I'm like, nope. He was like,
Speaker 1: can y'all get on the phone. I'm like, man, let
Speaker 1: me call y'all back. So y'all are hearing me say
Speaker 1: it now? I'm cool on burd Man. I don't need
Speaker 1: to have no conversation with a Burnman. Didn't know him
Speaker 1: before this, don't need to know him after this. God
Speaker 1: bless him. Burdman' is it justified? Please? First of all,
Speaker 1: like Charlemagne said, for you to take this time to
Speaker 1: come to the radio Statians to address me, that's not
Speaker 1: being a man. You told him that you've seen him
Speaker 1: any of the time, but you never addressed him. And
Speaker 1: the fact that he was addressing all three of you guys,
Speaker 1: including a female, a little Spanish female, was straight up.
Speaker 1: The Spanish female. No, I wasn't saying, m va female.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I wasn't saying I would have just said, like,
Speaker 1: shut up ahead, it's just wat because if you was
Speaker 1: a man, you would have pulled him to the song.
Speaker 1: And you've seen them, but you waited until you got
Speaker 1: on the radio station to say a five second interview
Speaker 1: like come on, please, God, we ain't worried about you.
Speaker 1: Just came. Burdman's approach was justified. No, man, not at all. Man,
Speaker 1: Come on, man, what's you coming at Charlom Man? For man,
Speaker 1: you know our person, Una Man. We took it with
Speaker 1: charlom Man. He right across the bridge, Yes, sir, all
Speaker 1: right bro third, well let's come on the story, guys,
Speaker 1: come all in the story. Burd Man wasn't wrong because
Speaker 1: I always tell y'all you can never tell somebody how
Speaker 1: they should react to a certain situation. But I know
Speaker 1: for me, I'm cool on burd Man boy. Like I said,
Speaker 1: he did call after the show and he apologized. He
Speaker 1: said he wanted to come back home. Did you accept
Speaker 1: his apology? Nothing bothers me. I don't care. I mean
Speaker 1: the fact that we was able to get it on
Speaker 1: the air is what made my song. I left that
Speaker 1: n act like nothing happened right before the bisland Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: hold on, I was trying to get it. I was
Speaker 1: trying to get it on air. Like you, talking behind
Speaker 1: the scenes does nothing for our listeners. I want our
Speaker 1: listeners to see everything, every aspect, everything that happens. That's
Speaker 1: why I was trying to get the cameraman and Harry up.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't love to know what it is that really
Speaker 1: in particular has him. I don't care. Practice Charlemagne said
Speaker 1: that why would you sign the Birdman because because he
Speaker 1: was like he felt like that messes up his money,
Speaker 1: because a lot of artists might like I won't sign him.
Speaker 1: But God, God bless bird Man. I didn't know Burman
Speaker 1: before this. I don't need to know him after this.
Speaker 1: No need to call my phone and ask the Holly
Speaker 1: and all that. I'm cool on Birdman. Five stop. Okay,
Speaker 1: good luck to him. I wish him the best. He
Speaker 1: had it. He's had a great life. He will continue
Speaker 1: to have a great life without the Breakfast Club. But
Speaker 1: my thing is, don't come here if you really don't
Speaker 1: want to address issues and get things off your chest.
Speaker 1: Don't come in here and try to curse us out
Speaker 1: with seven dude and intimidate people and do the old
Speaker 1: fake guy in nineteen nineties tough rapper thing. That is whack.
Speaker 1: He might have been. He just might have had a
Speaker 1: bad morning man. He might have just who knows. Well,
Speaker 1: let's pop battles, stupid ass, it's a breakfast club. Good morning, duke,
