Speaker 3: but I was able to DJ. And let me tell you,
Speaker 3: I haven't had so much fun in the long time.
Speaker 3: We was in Queensbridge. Now, if you know the legendary
Speaker 3: queens Bridge, that's where Mob Deep is from, That's where
Speaker 3: Nas is from. Growing up in Queens it was a
Speaker 3: place where you didn't go unless you were from there,
Speaker 3: because yeah, would have got shot, stabbed, robbed, absolutely positively.
Speaker 3: So when they asked me to do it, I was like,
Speaker 3: I'm not from that side of Queens, I'm from the
Speaker 3: North side.
Speaker 4: But I did it.
Speaker 3: And to see Mob Deep performed shook ones in the
Speaker 3: middle of that crowd was something to see all the
Speaker 3: old school turn it up a little bit.

Speaker 3: Big Daddy came Coogi wrapped dead Press, Onyx, Beanie Siegul
Speaker 3: came out, Roxanne Chante. It was so many people out there,
Speaker 3: just celebrating, celebrating Queens. And then after they did like
Speaker 3: this huge drone show. Now the drone show consisted of
Speaker 3: maybe they had like two hundred drum they flew him up.
Speaker 3: In the end, the drones did pictures of like just
Speaker 3: hip hop figures.
Speaker 4: It was just amazing.
Speaker 3: The only thing that was missing was honestly Nas because

Speaker 3: we're gonna be talking about what happened in Alabama. And
Speaker 3: I pray to God that some of those people don't
Speaker 3: get charged. I know a lot of people were arrested.
Speaker 3: I know the brother that was smacking people with chairs.
Speaker 3: I know people say it was a little too much,
Speaker 3: but I think they deserved it.
Speaker 4: He hit the guys with a chair, that was that's cool.
Speaker 1: But what but he did hit a chicken. Got chick,
Speaker 1: was hitting his wife.
Speaker 4: She was already down and assists that already taking care

Speaker 3: let's get in some front page news. Tesling figure Ohas here,
Speaker 3: Good morning, Tess.
Speaker 6: Good morning DJ and be good morning Claudia good morning.
Speaker 1: And let's jump right into it. Alabama.
Speaker 6: Yeah, y'all couldn't wait with chomping at the bid on this.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 6: Black people are excited everywhere.
Speaker 5: I guess to see black folks stand up, you know,
Speaker 5: I say all the time, it's the time to swing
Speaker 5: and it's the time to sing, or using the words
Speaker 5: of Malcolm X. Let's go straight to the report from
Speaker 5: w SFA. We'll talk about it on the other side.
Speaker 7: Tonight, we're following breaking news near Montgomery's river Front Park.
Speaker 7: A fight beside the river has led to multiple arrests.
Speaker 7: Welcome to the news at ten. I'm Brady Talbert. A
Speaker 7: viewer sent us this video, which shows the fight just
Speaker 7: feet from the water. Of witness claims it started because
Speaker 7: a pontoon boat was blocking the dock where a riverboat
Speaker 7: was trying to park. You can see more people jumping
Speaker 7: in as that fight played out. Well soon after Montgomery
Speaker 7: police arrived at the scene. They say a large group
Speaker 7: of people were involved in this brawl. Our crew saw
Speaker 7: people in handcuffs, and PD says several people have been
Speaker 7: detained and any charges are pending tonight.
Speaker 3: They deserved it, They deserved that ass whipping. I mean,
Speaker 3: so breakdown what happened. The gentleman was telling them that
Speaker 3: the boat. He was a security guard working there, right,
Speaker 3: he was telling him that they couldn't park the boat
Speaker 3: there because the steamboat was coming in, correct.
Speaker 5: Correct, And you know obviously they didn't they didn't want
Speaker 5: to hear that, and so we clearly saw, you know,
Speaker 5: they put hands on him first, jumped the security guard.
Speaker 6: People were laughing.
Speaker 5: He threw his head up in there basically, yeah, so
Speaker 5: you know, and and folks started jumping in. As Claudia
Speaker 5: mentioned about, I made a post too saying, you know
Speaker 5: who said black people can't swim.
Speaker 6: They've been calling him aquaman.
Speaker 5: I called him a little mermaid's brother, black little mermaid's brother.
Speaker 5: And so black folks just you know, jumped in and assisted.
Speaker 5: You did see others who were recording it, you know,
Speaker 5: from the side, but certainly their brother needed some help.
Speaker 5: And so as you mentioned, folks or as the report mentioned,
Speaker 5: folks have been arrested and we put out a call
Speaker 5: or put out a call yesterday with a lot of
Speaker 5: attorneys that we were talking to yesterday, and they're looking
Speaker 5: to offer assistance to these folks.
Speaker 6: You need to need help.
Speaker 5: Please get at me a teslum figure out on Instagram
Speaker 5: for those who need. They're willing to help pro bono
Speaker 5: to make sure that they get you know, adequate representation. Also,
Speaker 5: a lot of folks are trying to help sending money
Speaker 5: with cash app and so we're just trying to make
Speaker 5: sure that we find the right people, you know, to
Speaker 5: get it to We've made some contact with a lot
Speaker 5: of the leaders in Alabama, particularly you know, calling for
Speaker 5: no charges to be found. So this is something that
Speaker 5: organizers are working on, you know, try to see what
Speaker 5: we can do to offer assistance.
Speaker 4: You know what I don't like about the coverage outside
Speaker 4: of black media right the way the news report was
Speaker 4: a fight broke out. No, it was not a fight.
Speaker 4: A group of white men attacked a black security guard
Speaker 4: doing his job. And if it was the opposite way around,
Speaker 4: race would definitely be talked about outside of us. You know,
Speaker 4: it wasn't a fight that broke out. Call it what
Speaker 4: it was. It was assaulted. He was assaulted by like
Speaker 4: six or seven people doing his job. And I don't
Speaker 4: like that. Media is very slick with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, you know what I do love
Speaker 3: about the whole thing a lot of times, a lot
Speaker 3: of people, especially in our community. We mind our business, right,
Speaker 3: It doesn't have anything to do with us. But the
Speaker 3: fact that I've never seen people get so ready so fast.
Speaker 3: I mean because people were on the boat and that
Speaker 3: boat was coming in slowly, and I know those people
Speaker 3: on that boat like, as soon as this boat hits
Speaker 3: this dock, we're gonna whack some white people's asses. But
Speaker 3: the thing that I like about it is they were
Speaker 3: on top of it. There was no questions asked. It
Speaker 3: was like this gentleman is my father, he's my uncle,
Speaker 3: he's my brother, he's a family member, and we're gonna
Speaker 3: defend because it wasn't a one on one it was
Speaker 3: five to six people. And the fact that the women
Speaker 3: jumped out and when they see them women jumping on
Speaker 3: that man, And like, I seen the fact that that
Speaker 3: brother think about it like this, That brother didn't know
Speaker 3: that man.
Speaker 4: He's seen that man getting beat up.
Speaker 3: He jumped in the water and swam to the shore
Speaker 3: to get his licks in.
Speaker 4: We should have been doing this actually, because we've been
Speaker 4: with for way too many of us getting beat down
Speaker 4: in front of a lot of us just filming. So
Speaker 4: shout out to the people that got involved and got active.
Speaker 4: I agree, that's it.
Speaker 5: And I said that as well. I was saying, you know,
Speaker 5: normally I say, you know, why are you just filming
Speaker 5: instead of getting active? But I am glad that they
Speaker 5: did film this one to put it on the record,
Speaker 5: because I think, you know, we needed to see it.
Speaker 5: People needed to see it. They needed to know that
Speaker 5: everybody's not gonna just sit around and sing songs and
Speaker 5: pray and cry. So we had enough jumping in and
Speaker 5: folks also, you know, recording it to put it on
Speaker 5: the record.
Speaker 3: So now what do you think about the brother that
Speaker 3: picked up the chair with swinging at everybody on the chair.
Speaker 5: Hey, when it's going down, it's going down. I'm picking
Speaker 5: up everything chairs.
Speaker 4: That's my that's my point.
Speaker 3: If you ever get into it, you see red and
Speaker 3: that lady was swinging on men. She was swinging on
Speaker 3: people beforehand. So, like I said, I'll say, allegedly because
Speaker 3: I want to get to but when when it's when
Speaker 3: it's red, when it's wartime, I'm picking up everything, I'm
Speaker 3: swinging everything.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you've got now, it is what
Speaker 1: it is. But I get the emotion.
Speaker 4: But of course they're gonna he gonna get it the worst,
Speaker 4: of course, you know, but I get his mentality. He
Speaker 4: wasn't wrong, he wasn't wrong.
Speaker 3: Well that is front page news. Get it off your chest.
Speaker 3: Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Let's
Speaker 3: discuss what you did this weekend. Were you out and about?

Speaker 3: they were fighting like that and he got read. I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know she was swinging at dudes. I don't know.

Speaker 4: The man that was found in a barrel in La
Speaker 4: with the pop smoke murder. So we're gonna get it.
Speaker 4: Get into that, all right.
Speaker 1: We'll get into that next, So don't move. It's to
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club.
Speaker 4: Good morning, the Breakfast.
Speaker 1: Club Owing everybody.
Speaker 3: It's DJ Envy, charlomagnea gud we are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 3: Charlomagne is out. Our guest co host Claudia Jordan is here.
Speaker 3: We got to get to the rumors.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about our starless co hosts.
Speaker 4: Everyone, I mean, where.
Speaker 8: Relieve this is the rumor report.
Speaker 6: Commy Soldier boys.
Speaker 4: Sometimes they say it all on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 18: Jordan's stories are.
Speaker 4: If you live long enough, he's gonna have story.
Speaker 2: That is very true, very true.
Speaker 4: Let's talk now.
Speaker 3: Last week, as I was reporting the rumors, Nini Leeks
Speaker 3: did an interview with Carlos King and they mentioned our girl,
Speaker 3: Claudia Jordan.
Speaker 4: And this is what Ninnie Leek.
Speaker 22: Said, Claudia Jordan, starless, who won between you and Claudia
Speaker 22: and Puerto Rico.
Speaker 23: I'm always the winner, and so I obviously won. But
Speaker 23: I will give Claudia this, although she said the most
Speaker 23: nastiest things about me, and she's been holding onto a
Speaker 23: grace for one hundred thousand years, I would have to
Speaker 23: give I'm gonna give her this. I've read many of girls, honey,
Speaker 23: and I've been on this show with many girls. I
Speaker 23: would have to say that she was probably my number
Speaker 23: one battle. She was definitely right up there to battle with. Yeah,
Speaker 23: I don't think that there's not been one other girl
Speaker 23: that could probably battle the way she did because I
Speaker 23: took her through it, and I feel like she took
Speaker 23: me through it, and so I feel like we gave
Speaker 23: each other a run.
Speaker 1: I guess that was a compliment.
Speaker 4: It's like saying, you know, Envy, you're a good DJ,
Speaker 4: but she smell like onions, Like I give you a compliment,
Speaker 4: but then I will tell you you smell or whatever.
Speaker 18: You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: So, what's your beef with d I don't have a
Speaker 4: beef with Nini, and he has a problem. Whenever I
Speaker 4: have to report on her, people think it's a personal thing.
Speaker 4: I have a very good sense of humor. I work
Speaker 4: with comedians. I work with the greats like Jamie Fox,
Speaker 4: and we used to give it to each other so
Speaker 4: much harder. Wait, hold on pause. I mean on the air,
Speaker 4: we used to like say the most personal, like wild
Speaker 4: things to each other and we would laugh about it.
Speaker 4: Nani and me. That was light work to me on
Speaker 4: the show. It was funny to me. I never was
Speaker 4: mad mad. It's the fans that like elevated on social media,
Speaker 4: so me and her people don't know this. After the reunion,
Speaker 4: she texts me because I said some cool stuff to
Speaker 4: her at the reunion too, and she's like, you know,
Speaker 4: I appreciate what you said, blah blah blah, and then
Speaker 4: we were good. But when my name comes up and
Speaker 4: she says something slick, I don't. I'm like Cardi B
Speaker 4: like when it's you get me, it's like it's on
Speaker 4: you know, I don't. It's not it's not a grudge.
Speaker 4: It's like, just don't say negative things about me and
Speaker 4: I won't have to respond. But I do appreciate her
Speaker 4: saying the truth. I did read her, and they also
Speaker 4: cut like maybe ten or eleven more things I said.
Speaker 4: I wish one day they would release the unedited version,
Speaker 4: y'all hear the whole thing. But yeah, but she did
Speaker 4: call me starless? She did. Should I say anything about that?
Speaker 1: I mean, how does it make you feel?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 4: How much the stardom pay these days? Because I can't
Speaker 4: call Chase and say, hey, I like to pay my
Speaker 4: Bentley payment with my stardom. I would rather be starless
Speaker 4: than jobless, because I don't. I'm not here for like
Speaker 4: the clout. I like money. I like working, I like,
Speaker 4: you know, being busy. I like putting other people on.
Speaker 4: So but I do think it's dope. And you know what, Nini,
Speaker 4: I think one day you and I need to have
Speaker 4: a conversation, whether it's on camera or off camera, because honestly,
Speaker 4: I felt like we missed a really crazy opportunity because
Speaker 4: I think both of us have wicked senses of humor,
Speaker 4: and she's real fast and funny, and I know I am.
Speaker 4: I think we could have had some TV goals had
Speaker 4: we it had not gone that direction, because before I
Speaker 4: did Housewives, her and I actually were cool, Like she
Speaker 4: called me to like she reach out to me in
Speaker 4: two thousand and nine when I never even watch Housewives
Speaker 4: to like take her place on this hosting job, so
Speaker 4: she knew who I was. I was doing Celebrity Apprentice,
Speaker 4: I hosted as Universe Deal and Odal I was doing
Speaker 4: all that. I didn't really I wasn't familiar with the show,
Speaker 4: so when she did that, we had no beef. So
Speaker 4: when I went on the show, I was surprised that
Speaker 4: she kind of came at my neck first, and so
Speaker 4: I was just reacting in real time what y'all saw.
Speaker 4: Like I was like, damn, Like I thought we was good,
Speaker 4: you know. But then I also have a different attitude
Speaker 4: about reality TV. To me, it's like we should look
Speaker 4: at it like this is just work, like an acting job,
Speaker 4: almost right, and then when we go off set, like
Speaker 4: go get a drink and be like, yo, we did that.
Speaker 4: That's how you should treat reality TV. Not take it.
Speaker 3: Home and really be mad. So you're not taking a person,
Speaker 3: but you feel maybe she is well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I do understand where she how she feels.
Speaker 4: She was on that show from day one, right, it
Speaker 4: blew up. She was a huge part of it, and
Speaker 4: then she feels discarded. I know how that feels, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean. So she has a right to
Speaker 4: feel defensive, But I'm not your enemy girlfriend. I'm not like,
Speaker 4: cut it out, just say the nice thing, you know,
Speaker 4: leave a starless thing alone. But I do understand you
Speaker 4: was asked the question. My thing is, I'm not trying
Speaker 4: to be a star. I'm trying to be rich. Okay,
Speaker 4: that's it. I'm sure, Nina, come on, pay your guest
Speaker 4: host before the year's over. But Nini, I do appreciate
Speaker 4: you saying that. Thank you very much because you know,
Speaker 4: a lot of people still talk about it. We did
Speaker 4: this in twenty fourteen and it's twenty twenty three and
Speaker 4: people I'll still talk about it, and I still get
Speaker 4: asked every single day, would you go back? And I'm like,
Speaker 4: you know what, I'll go back. Bring me and Nini
Speaker 4: back together. How about that? Okay? How about that? Nini?
Speaker 4: And that's my olive branch. There you go. All right?
Speaker 4: What else we got? Damn all right? Pop smoke. There's
Speaker 4: an update here. On July thirty first, police found the
Speaker 4: body of a man named Javonte Murphy. He was thirty
Speaker 4: two years old in a barrel that was seen floating
Speaker 4: in the water near the Pacific Coast Highway Bridge in
Speaker 4: la He had one gunshot wound to the head. His
Speaker 4: body was not bally decomposed, so they don't believe his
Speaker 4: murder happened too long ago. Police do see a link
Speaker 4: because he's the brother of one of the five people
Speaker 4: that were arrested in the pop Smoke murder, so they
Speaker 4: do believe it maybe some kind of retaliation.
Speaker 17: Wow.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I have a friend that lives in Malleblen
Speaker 4: when she hit me up before the story came out,
Speaker 4: and she's like, yo, Claudia is getting crazy around here,
Speaker 4: Like they found a body in a barrel that washed
Speaker 4: up down the street from me, and this is why
Speaker 4: would you think about this retaliation going after the relatives
Speaker 4: is crazy?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they said that the police don't don't one
Speaker 3: hundred percent know what happened, if it's part of the
Speaker 3: pop smoke situation or if it's a part of another
Speaker 3: situation they made. They believe it could be some gang
Speaker 3: activity from something else. They're trying to put two and
Speaker 3: two together to see if it is part of it.
Speaker 3: But I mean, it's like anything else. When you know,
Speaker 3: when it's wartime, you know everybody can get touched. Everybody's included.
Speaker 3: What you're sad, But the.
Speaker 4: Family friend said Javonte was a good kid and was
Speaker 4: not involved in gang activity.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so sad, sad situation. All right, well that
Speaker 3: is your rumor report. Now when we come back, we
Speaker 3: got front page news tesling figure out will be joining us,
Speaker 3: and doctor Cornell West will be joining us. He's running

Speaker 3: Good morning and all Laker fans out there. I just
Speaker 3: want to tell y'all that Anthony Davis agreed to NBA's
Speaker 3: richest annual extension. He has agreed to a three year,
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty six million dollar maximum contract extension.
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, that's a lot of money greed.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, I'm gonna play the powerball to that.
Speaker 3: I think it's that one point five billion, Mega million
Speaker 3: is one point five one of them is high.
Speaker 4: But keep trying. I'm alright, I'm gonna try. I'm gonna leave.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: Let's talk about this goon squad.
Speaker 5: Yeah, once again. You know earlier we were talking about,
Speaker 5: you know, the brother that got jumped by the white men.
Speaker 5: And again this happens in several several different instances. This
Speaker 5: is one with the goon squad was white men, white
Speaker 5: police officers who jumped to a torture two black men.
Speaker 5: Five former ranking County Mississippi and one from Richly, Mississippi
Speaker 5: deputies played guilty to charges related to the torture of
Speaker 5: the two black men. Let's listen to the report and
Speaker 5: I'm gonna give you some more information.
Speaker 7: On the other side, they became the criminals they swore
Speaker 7: to protect us from.
Speaker 25: They allegedly called themselves the Goon Squad, a group of
Speaker 25: six white former Mississippi law enforcement officers, giving themselves that
Speaker 25: Moniker because of their alleged willingness to use excessive force
Speaker 25: and not to report. Now they've pleaded guilty to federal
Speaker 25: charges related to an assault that, according to a charging document,
Speaker 25: included nearly two hours of torture, physical, racist, and sexual
Speaker 25: abuse two black men after a white neighbor complaint. Several
Speaker 25: blackmales have been staying at the property and the neighbor
Speaker 25: had observed suspicious behavior. The officer who received the complaint
Speaker 25: directed an investigator to take care of it. On January
Speaker 25: twenty fourth, six law enforcement officers entered victims Eddie Parker
Speaker 25: and Michael Jiggles home without a warrant.
Speaker 5: Now, the lawsuit said that they entered without a warning,
Speaker 5: and again the complaint was about allegedly drug activity, which
Speaker 5: they did not find, and they were handcuffed, kicked, waterboard
Speaker 5: as you heard, sexually assaulted.
Speaker 6: One was actually shot in the mouth.
Speaker 5: He said he would never be the same, and so
Speaker 5: they have permanent physical damages, long term obviously psychological damage.
Speaker 5: The sheriff says that he didn't know that this so
Speaker 5: called goomb squad exists.
Speaker 6: Do you guys believe that?
Speaker 4: Absolutely?
Speaker 26: Not?
Speaker 6: Yeah, people talking.
Speaker 5: I believe he said he was embarrassed by But I
Speaker 5: just you know, for this to go on for so long,
Speaker 5: it's just points to again, you know, going back to
Speaker 5: the Alabama story, Everybody's not gonna sit around, you know,
Speaker 5: and allow you to do this. So we have one
Speaker 5: story where we got folks jumping into the fan the
Speaker 5: black man. We got this story where you know, two
Speaker 5: black men were assaulted. This is why you saw the
Speaker 5: energy that you saw in Alabama. I just want to
Speaker 5: put it out that people are over it. You know,
Speaker 5: they're tired of it. They we want our licks back,
Speaker 5: and that's why people are, you know, motivated by It's
Speaker 5: not us condoning violence. It just is what it is.
Speaker 5: We see too many of these stories happening over and over.
Speaker 5: The officers were charged with conspiracy against rights, deprivation of
Speaker 5: rights under the color of law, conspiracy to obstruct justice,
Speaker 5: obstruction of justice, and so we'll see, we'll see how
Speaker 5: it goes.
Speaker 4: What do you guys think, you know, for years, I
Speaker 4: would hear people say, oh, they want they they they
Speaker 4: want a race war, they want a race We I'm like, nah, no, no,
Speaker 4: but it seems like it's unfolding right before our eyes
Speaker 4: in all areas. Like a security guard, dude is his
Speaker 4: job at a dock, people at a house that are
Speaker 4: not really doing drugs, but they say in there and
Speaker 4: then using what's the obsession with? Like the sexual abuse?
Speaker 4: This is reminiscent of slavery when they brought us over
Speaker 4: here and the things they would do, the black man
Speaker 4: buck breaking, you know what I mean, Like why what
Speaker 4: is going on? Like what is the obsession? Like you
Speaker 4: said earlier, we mind our own business. They are actively
Speaker 4: seeking out smoke with us.
Speaker 3: I was gonna ask you what Donald Trump running for
Speaker 3: president and everything going with him is, do we see
Speaker 3: things getting worse? Like are we seeing I don't know
Speaker 3: if it's white supremacy or white on black crimes, or
Speaker 3: is it getting worse because Donald Trump is putting more pressure.
Speaker 5: On well, I mean to me my personal opinion. I mean,
Speaker 5: this is America, so it's always been going on. But
Speaker 5: he certainly, you know, when he started running, certainly you know,
Speaker 5: opened up against the floodgates. If you will, to make
Speaker 5: people very comfortable, you know what they do and basically
Speaker 5: saying the quiet part are out loud. Remember when he
Speaker 5: said stand back and stand by. And remember we covered
Speaker 5: the story a few weeks ago on the country singer
Speaker 5: Jason Is at Alden when he said, you know, don't
Speaker 5: try it in a small town. Remember when he made
Speaker 5: that tweet.
Speaker 6: Well, guess what.
Speaker 5: They tried it in a small town in Alabama. And
Speaker 5: guess what happened. The small town fought back those types
Speaker 5: of you know, inciting that you see over and over
Speaker 5: and over. And we heard the gymen say that this
Speaker 5: had to do with a Trump rally. I didn't want
Speaker 5: to say that because it's not, you know for a fact,
Speaker 5: but you know there is conversation saying that because you
Speaker 5: know there was a Trump rally. I assume somewhere in
Speaker 5: the area that people are a little bit more turned up.
Speaker 6: But I just think that our response.
Speaker 5: To that and what you saw with our people is again,
Speaker 5: people are tired.
Speaker 6: Of the constant.
Speaker 5: You know, stories like I just covered the constant, George Floyd,
Speaker 5: the constant, you know, the constant getting beat up, the constant,
Speaker 5: you know, crying on camera.
Speaker 6: No, it was time to do a little bit of
Speaker 6: swinging back. So you know that that's what it is.
Speaker 4: I think this could be a pivotal moment for us
Speaker 4: because leading up to this, we we did stick around
Speaker 4: as watch and film. Like I think now with this context,
Speaker 4: the George Floyd thing, I don't think a lot of
Speaker 4: us will be sitting around like like I think I've
Speaker 4: I'm personally motivated myself. There's no more sitting around in filming.
Speaker 4: I think we're gonna get more active. I think we'n
Speaker 4: get more involved now. I think this was a big,
Speaker 4: major moment for us as black people. I really do.
Speaker 3: Now, let's talk about this Burger King worker who didn't
Speaker 3: miss a day of work in twenty seven years.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Now on a positive note, again, this is where you
Speaker 5: know folks came together. Now, this is I would assume
Speaker 5: people donated from all over the country. But again, they
Speaker 5: took care of this brother named Kevin Ford, who was
Speaker 5: a Burger King employee in Las Vegas. He was surprised
Speaker 5: of four hundred thousand dollars from his coworkers and other
Speaker 5: supporters online after he worked for twenty seven years. Now
Speaker 5: he got after he got the gift from Burger King.
Speaker 5: They gave him a small goodie bag that had Reese's
Speaker 5: cup Starbucks cup, two pins, and one movie ticket, and
Speaker 5: so he kind of right, he kind of expressed his disappointment.
Speaker 6: So people said, oh, you know what, let's do something
Speaker 6: for his brother.
Speaker 5: So they started to go fundy page and within a
Speaker 5: year the campaign raised over four hundred thousand dollars. So
Speaker 5: it looks like, you know, he definitely got a retirement
Speaker 5: that's well worth it.
Speaker 6: There was another story I was gonna do.
Speaker 5: We don't have time to do, but it was about
Speaker 5: French fries being linked to depression.
Speaker 6: So I thought that was interesting.
Speaker 3: How is f French fries makes me happy to depression?
Speaker 1: It makes me smile, I know it.
Speaker 5: I brought that story because last week you were talking
Speaker 5: about you have to fight to get the French fries
Speaker 5: every now and then.
Speaker 6: But I'll just roll into that speaking of French fries.
Speaker 5: But yeah, a research team from China said that twelve
Speaker 5: percent of anxiety and depression come from folks who eat
Speaker 5: fried food, particularly French fries. They said they evaluated one
Speaker 5: hundred and forty thousand people over eleven years, and they
Speaker 5: found that people that ate the fried potatoes over other
Speaker 5: things had a.
Speaker 6: Two percent increased risk of depression. So envy there you go.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not gonna fine.
Speaker 3: I got some McDonald French fries and I was a
Speaker 3: little depressed, not because I didn't eat them. I got
Speaker 3: a small thing of French fries. And everybody knows. I
Speaker 3: got a twenty month old baby, right and the twenty
Speaker 3: month old see my French fries. And I had one
Speaker 3: fry and she killed it.
Speaker 1: And I was gonna fight the twenty year old because
Speaker 1: I was so all I wanted.
Speaker 3: You got your oranges, you got your fruit, you got yours.
Speaker 1: Let me just have my little French fry. And she
Speaker 1: ate my whole French fry.
Speaker 3: And I was like, we know what that's aside from
Speaker 3: God telling me I don't need them French fries right there, I.
Speaker 4: Think he's still mad at the baby a little bit.
Speaker 4: It's just a baby and a baby.
Speaker 8: Baby.
Speaker 4: Give the fry.
Speaker 1: But I tried to hide it, right, So she took one.
Speaker 3: I tried to hide it, and then she looked at
Speaker 3: me and just started crying, like, I know, you got
Speaker 3: them fries behind you.
Speaker 4: And it was like either let her cry and give
Speaker 4: the fries. So I gave it the fries.
Speaker 6: It was good.
Speaker 5: Fore, well, I saw this story and thought of you.
Speaker 5: So maybe this would be motivation to stay away from
Speaker 5: the fries.
Speaker 1: So I test and you got a shout out before
Speaker 1: we leave.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I want to give a shout out to our
Speaker 5: brother Killer Mike. You know I mentioned last week we
Speaker 5: were doing a Texas tour. He did two shows, one
Speaker 5: in Houston and one in Dallas. But we did conversations
Speaker 5: with Killer Mike at two barbershops in Dallas and Houston.
Speaker 5: I organized that and it was just an amazing conversation,
Speaker 5: particularly with him and DC. So I'll have that this
Speaker 5: week on The Straight Shot and No Chase. The podcasts
Speaker 5: on the Black Effect podcast Network, and if you want
Speaker 5: to hear with fifty years of hip hop looks like
Speaker 5: sounds like, check that podcast out. But I also had
Speaker 5: a chance to attend his tour, his concert, and I
Speaker 5: was just in in tears envy. I'm telling you it's
Speaker 5: the Michael album. I just can't stress enough. It is
Speaker 5: definitely a classic, for.
Speaker 3: Sure, absolutely all right now, when we come back, doctor
Speaker 3: Cornell West will be joining us. He's running for president
Speaker 3: for twenty twenty four. He's not Republican, he's not Democrat.
Speaker 3: He's running the People's Party. That's right independent, So we'll
Speaker 3: talk to him when we come back. It's the Breakfast
Speaker 3: Come on BT, the Breakfast Club. Warning, everybody is DJ
Speaker 3: Envy Charlamagne to God.
Speaker 4: We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: We also have Tesla's figure out with us this morning.
Speaker 3: And we have a special guest, doctor Cornell Wes Welner.
Speaker 2: Oh, you're blessing me. And it's consecrated space, all this
Speaker 2: rich spirit and stories and narratives and laughter, and you
Speaker 2: all deal with some serious issues too. And they have
Speaker 2: an ourdea sister here though indeed, indeed it's Tesla. It's blessing.
Speaker 4: How you feel about you here?
Speaker 17: Brother? How do you feel today?
Speaker 2: Oh? I'm still swinging, man, Yes, sir, I'm still swinging.
Speaker 2: Don mean the thing if it ain't got that swing,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: And you swing and swinging because you are running for president,
Speaker 3: so telling people why did you decide to go through
Speaker 3: that strenuous and stressful thing.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, my brother, I've been running for truth
Speaker 2: and justice all my life though, man, So this is
Speaker 2: just another context, another moment that we got to be
Speaker 2: true to the best of all the love and care
Speaker 2: and integrity that been put inside of US Man. For me,
Speaker 2: that's Irene Clifton West as mom and dad. The shallow
Speaker 2: Baptist Church on the Chocolate sign of Sacramento, that's the
Speaker 2: Black Panther Party. We set the highest standards of integrity, honisty, decency,
Speaker 2: but most importantly, courage. That's got to break the back
Speaker 2: of fear. We got too many folks running around scared
Speaker 2: and intimidated and couch owling, you see. And that's what
Speaker 2: I've always tried to do. So running for president is
Speaker 2: just a particular moment and a larger calling of running
Speaker 2: for truth and justice. So when I come into a
Speaker 2: space like this, I feel at home because you've all
Speaker 2: been wrestling with the same issues week in and week out,
Speaker 2: and it's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 17: To be here. Brother.
Speaker 22: You know, I see that the Democrats and a lot
Speaker 22: of progressives are saying they wish you wouldn't run, saying
Speaker 22: that your presidential big could cripple President Biden's potential run.
Speaker 17: How does that feel to be that kind of threat,
Speaker 17: to be that kind of disruptive.
Speaker 2: Well, it's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing. That's
Speaker 2: what it means to U to be a servant of
Speaker 2: the people. You see that Harriet Tuppman was a threat
Speaker 2: to the white supremacist order. Frederick Douglas was a threat.
Speaker 2: That's why he put a bonne on his head. I'd
Speaker 2: be wells was a threat against lynching and American terrorism.
Speaker 2: Jimmy James Cord, that's why they put a bonney on
Speaker 2: his said Martin King, Montole, Fanny lou Hamer. They were threats.
Speaker 2: So what does it mean to be a threat. What
Speaker 2: it means to be a threat is you calling into
Speaker 2: question an order that's predicated on too much suffering of
Speaker 2: precious everyday people. Now the funny thing for me is,
Speaker 2: you know here this, I haven't had one public event,
Speaker 2: I haven't had one fundraiser, and they say I'm a
Speaker 2: threat and a minace to the constitutional order. I say, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's what I need to be doing. That's precisely what
Speaker 2: I need to be doing. You see, because the Constitution
Speaker 2: was pro slavery in practice for seventy five years, is
Speaker 2: pro Jim and Jane Crow in practice for one hundred years.
Speaker 2: These days, the new Jim Crow. I always begin as
Speaker 2: a Christian. I begin with the least of these, which
Speaker 2: means I look at the world through the lens of
Speaker 2: my partners who incarcerated. I've been blessed to teach in
Speaker 2: prisons for forty one years now. I asked the Democrats,
Speaker 2: what are you doing about mass incarceration?
Speaker 18: Biden?
Speaker 2: You was an architect of it with a white supremacist's name,
Speaker 2: Thurmon was strong. What are you doing about mass incarceration?
Speaker 2: I want to know. If you're not doing about it,
Speaker 2: how am I spoiling your votes. You're not speaking to
Speaker 2: the needs of my people. You're not speaking to the
Speaker 2: needs of those who are suffering. So I'm not a spoiler.
Speaker 2: I'm casting a spotlight on that which you don't want
Speaker 2: to to terms with. If you were really concerned about
Speaker 2: the issues I'm concerned about, then steal my thunder. Be
Speaker 2: on the cutting edge of eliminating mass incarceration, be on
Speaker 2: the cutting edge of abolishing slate of poverty, abolishing homelessness,
Speaker 2: and we were just talking about beloved wife and heat
Speaker 2: to here the unhoused, precious brothers and sisters. If you
Speaker 2: really won't speak to the issues, be on the edge
Speaker 2: of trying to gang assets that workers with a living wage,
Speaker 2: then I wouldn't have no ground. You see, So they
Speaker 2: think that they what people say, Well, it's just a
Speaker 2: personal thing, it's just the vanity thing. Please, I just
Speaker 2: turned seventy years old. The last thing I want to
Speaker 2: do is be wrestling with the issues in the American
Speaker 2: Empire that have to do with just how sick and
Speaker 2: indifferent and callous our elites are when it comes to
Speaker 2: poor people and working people. But I gotta be true
Speaker 2: to ones calling.
Speaker 3: I was gonna ask, you know, when you talk about
Speaker 3: body and then you see the amount of support that
Speaker 3: a lot of our community gives, what's your biggest hurdle
Speaker 3: with making sure that those people that support it, Biden
Speaker 3: and with all the effects that he's done to us,
Speaker 3: support you.
Speaker 2: Well, one is that I do recognize if we black
Speaker 2: folk have always been between a rock and a hard place.
Speaker 2: Henry Holland Garnett gave that famous speech of eighteen thirty
Speaker 2: seven in Philadelphia, way he said, Black people must never
Speaker 2: confuse our situation with that of the Israelites in the
Speaker 2: Hebrew scripture. For us, Pharaoh is on both sides of
Speaker 2: the bloody red sea. That's real. So that's the fear too,
Speaker 2: you see. So Biden in a Democratic party can just say,
Speaker 2: if you don't out for me. And I ain't done
Speaker 2: nothing about mass incarceration, thirty nine percent of our black
Speaker 2: children still living in poverty. I ain't done that. I
Speaker 2: haven't focused on it. But Trump is worse. Trump is
Speaker 2: worse every four years. Republicans are worst Republicans the well.
Speaker 2: And it's true over between a rock and but wait
Speaker 2: a minute, we got to reach the point where we say,
Speaker 2: we got to speak our truth and we got to
Speaker 2: understand between a rock and a hard place. That's true.
Speaker 2: And what happened in that convention in eighteen thirty seven.
Speaker 4: Somebody we have no way out.
Speaker 2: Somebody sing a song, Somebody tell a story about the
Speaker 2: love of your child and the love of your loved one.
Speaker 2: That's the only thing, Keith, Black folk going think about
Speaker 2: Jim Crow. South Carolina, where you've come from? Brothers that right,
Speaker 2: yoah asolute, that's a lesbian, that's James Brown, That's how
Speaker 2: And what was it about South Carolina just like Mississippi,
Speaker 2: the only two states that had a majority of black people?
Speaker 4: What does that meant?
Speaker 2: That meant that the level of terror and trauma against
Speaker 2: this brother's family was even more intense white because they
Speaker 2: were scared. You say, these black folk get together. They
Speaker 2: might want to create a decent society for them, and
Speaker 2: a decent society for them, mean we're gonna have to
Speaker 2: give up some power, give up some resources, give up something.
Speaker 2: And unfortunately, you know, we're living in such a moment's
Speaker 2: spiritual decay, not just in the nation, but in Black America.
Speaker 2: We just got too many black folks who are scared
Speaker 2: and fearful and intimidated and don't want to speak the truth.
Speaker 22: You know, when you hear allies, well, I guess allies
Speaker 22: are yours? Like aocc Cornell West is too big of
Speaker 22: a risk because of the electoral college and the fact
Speaker 22: you may take some of those votes. What do you
Speaker 22: think of people like that? Because they're progressive? Shouldn't they
Speaker 22: want these issues on the ticket? Shouldn't they want somebody
Speaker 22: like you on the ticket bringing up these issues?
Speaker 18: Right?
Speaker 2: Don't know it's true. And that's wonderful question though, because
Speaker 2: it's mean you've got a progressive slice in the Democratic partner.
Speaker 2: I was with brother Bernie, as my dear sister knows, twice.
Speaker 2: They treated him badly, they treated him unjustly. They rigged
Speaker 2: the whole thing. You had Hillary Clinton and the others
Speaker 2: were going to ensure that he did not win no
Speaker 2: matter what. So at the core of the Democratic Party
Speaker 2: is a rot and that rottenness is corporate greed. And
Speaker 2: they tied the big money, big donors, big benefactors. Be
Speaker 2: a member of the Democratic Party and win without assets
Speaker 2: the big money. Now I'm as broke as the Ten Commandments, financially, personally, collectively.
Speaker 2: And I don't mind, because somewhere I read Siki first, Yeah,
Speaker 2: the Kingdom of God and all the rest of the
Speaker 2: things will be added. So when I hear AOC, I say, Okay,
Speaker 2: she's part of that progressive, small slice of the Democratic Party,
Speaker 2: but she's given in to the perceptions of the corporate
Speaker 2: wing of that party, and the corporate wing says over
Speaker 2: and over again, all we have is two parties. It's
Speaker 2: freaking frack. It's tweeted b and tweeted dump. There is
Speaker 2: a difference domestically, but not a whole lot of difference
Speaker 2: in terms of foreign policy. US Palestinian brothers on the
Speaker 2: West Bank when they got the various bombs coming at them,
Speaker 2: with five hundred and fifty Palestinian children are killed in
Speaker 2: fifty days. Somewhere I read or somewhere I heard, I
Speaker 2: heard vacation Bible school, and shot he little Baptist. Jesus
Speaker 2: loves the little children and all the children of the world,
Speaker 2: red and yellow, black or white, they are pressures in
Speaker 2: its sight. What Palestinian children child has exactly the same
Speaker 2: value as a precious Jewish child. And you asked the
Speaker 2: black politician, how come you won't say a mumbling word
Speaker 2: about the Palestine's undergoing that kind of suffering on the
Speaker 2: gravy train.
Speaker 1: All right, we got more with doctor Cornell West.
Speaker 4: When we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, ng.
Speaker 3: Everybody is DJ Envy, Charlomagne the God. We are the
Speaker 3: Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with doctor Cornell West.
Speaker 3: And I don't forget Charlomagne is out. So if you
Speaker 3: want to give somebody donkey of the day, eight hundred
Speaker 3: five eight five one o five one phone lines, wide
Speaker 3: open eye, let's get back to doctor Cornell West, says
Speaker 3: the figure ro sat in with this interview with us doctors.
Speaker 4: You are right.
Speaker 6: The progressive movement, it started out, you know what.
Speaker 5: Everybody excited and it happened well before Bernie Sanders. But
Speaker 5: everybody will feel the burn, feel the burn, and now
Speaker 5: that burn is kind of fizzled out because there is current,
Speaker 5: a current split.
Speaker 6: How do we hold people like AOC accountable.
Speaker 5: That say, you know, and I'm just using her for example,
Speaker 5: piggyback on off Charlemagne's question. But what do we do
Speaker 5: for those that said, no, we're gonna push the line,
Speaker 5: we're gonna go hard, and then they flip.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we just gotta tell the truth, tell the truth
Speaker 2: and humility and the truth of the jagged edge in
Speaker 2: Janet's face, which is to say, it has a number
Speaker 2: of different dimensions to it. It comes back at us
Speaker 2: and it goes at others. No one of us have
Speaker 2: a monopoly on truth. Truth is bigger, justice is bigger,
Speaker 2: Beauty is bigger, Love is bigger. But we got to
Speaker 2: be honest, We got to be candid. Now, for example,
Speaker 2: if AOC was doing something important on the local level,
Speaker 2: if she was dealing with housing evictions, and I'm in
Speaker 2: solidary with folks dealing with all this gentrification, all this
Speaker 2: land grab and power grab, and he wanted her to
Speaker 2: do something within the neighborhood, I'd be there with her
Speaker 2: because it an'ybody heard it about me. It's about the
Speaker 2: people suffering when it comes to presidential politics, and people
Speaker 2: like so quick to endorse without leverage. I mean, it's
Speaker 2: amazing to me that people say, you know, brother West,
Speaker 2: you have a chance of turning the whole election. I
Speaker 2: told my wife in the world just three months ago,
Speaker 2: out wake up, and I'm listening to it, Retha, ain't
Speaker 2: nobody thinking about me. Three months later, I got the
Speaker 2: power to turn the whole election.
Speaker 17: That means somebody's not doing something right. You ain't lying right.
Speaker 2: You got this Black reversional Caucus's been in there all
Speaker 2: that time, and I'm out there lecturing and writing and
Speaker 2: so forth and so on, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: I got this leverage. But I can tell you one thing.
Speaker 2: They're gonna have to put me in the grave before
Speaker 2: I sell out Black people, because I ain't selling out
Speaker 2: my mama. Oh I'm not selling out my daddy.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: They were always greater than me, great in love, greater
Speaker 2: in wisdom.
Speaker 4: You see.
Speaker 2: So when I have leverage, I don't look at the
Speaker 2: black community. Wy my brother Tavis Smiley said so many
Speaker 2: other politicians do as some political calculation.
Speaker 18: No, I'm not at all.
Speaker 2: These are the people that love me, me into my sanity,
Speaker 2: into my dignity. It's like me giving up Curtis Mayfield
Speaker 2: Opten for the beach Boys.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna do it.
Speaker 6: I ain't got nothing.
Speaker 2: That's right, ain't my thing, No, no, no, I want
Speaker 2: to hear someone near the baker, you know what I mean?
Speaker 17: That's right?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah.
Speaker 17: I love the disruption you causing.
Speaker 22: And you know, you know, like you know you're a
Speaker 22: threat when everybody is saying you're going to be a threat.
Speaker 22: But I also see the media they're not wasting no
Speaker 22: time attacking you because now they're saying you owe a
Speaker 22: half a million dollars in taxes, and they're trying to
Speaker 22: say it's hypocrisy on your part because you spent so
Speaker 22: much of your life advocating for high your taxes on
Speaker 22: the wealthy. I'm like, I ain't never heard any of
Speaker 22: this about doctor Cornell West before, but now all of
Speaker 22: a sudden he's running for president.
Speaker 2: Everything's absolutely And the thing is, I mean, I told
Speaker 2: you before I got so much gangster in me. I
Speaker 2: was a gangst before. I'm at Jesus, I ain't nothing
Speaker 2: but a redeemed center with gangster proclivities. So that this
Speaker 2: whole lot of things. Anytime you know, you shine, you
Speaker 2: shine a flashlight under somebody's clothes, you're gonna find all
Speaker 2: kind of message, because that's what it is to be human.
Speaker 2: But the thing is one you don't wanna lie about it.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell the truth. I go to the grave
Speaker 2: for that. You broke that I've been broken until.
Speaker 4: Brother. That's the truth.
Speaker 2: And it's partly because you know, I do like to
Speaker 2: give them to love ones and others too, but I
Speaker 2: take responsibility for it too. But it don't make no
Speaker 2: difference to me. What's interesting is you want to use
Speaker 2: it as a distraction. Why don't you keep the focus
Speaker 2: on the suffering that I'm highlighting. Go to Harlem, go
Speaker 2: to Brooklyn, go to South central l A. Go to
Speaker 2: south side Chicago. That's what I'm talking about. That's what
Speaker 2: I'm concerned about. But they used to do the same thing.
Speaker 2: You know, the Supreme Court put Martin in jail for
Speaker 2: tax evags. Now Martin is a tax evaser in the
Speaker 2: same way that I'm a Norwegian, and I ain't got
Speaker 2: nothing against the Norwegian. But I ain't no Norwegian. I
Speaker 2: can tell you that right now. So it's just a
Speaker 2: matter of trying to hit you below the belt and
Speaker 2: keep the distraction. But the beautiful thing is Muhammad Ali,
Speaker 2: one of the greatest all free black feener. You got
Speaker 2: to give all honor oldge Mohammed tremendous present because he
Speaker 2: produced two of the freest black men, probably the two
Speaker 2: freest black men of the twentieth century, Malcolm X and
Speaker 2: Muhammad Ali.
Speaker 17: Three. Don't forget mister Fara Khon, Well.
Speaker 2: That's true too. Now, miss a little Farra Calls is free.
Speaker 2: You absolutely right you have. And he's very much tied
Speaker 2: drawnnable Elijah Mohammad definitely and in that sense the minutes
Speaker 2: of a little Shara Khan. He is a kind of
Speaker 2: son of in that way you see. But what what
Speaker 2: what muhammada Adid do, Muhammad Ali roper do? You got
Speaker 2: to get your timing right. That's what the jazz musicians say, right.
Speaker 2: You got to time it in such a way that
Speaker 2: when it's time to swing, make sure it's effective, make
Speaker 2: sure it's got love in it, and make sure it
Speaker 2: has him packed.
Speaker 17: That's who we got.
Speaker 5: You mentioned in one of your interviews how we should
Speaker 5: be taking notice to all of these strikes going on
Speaker 5: so a moment ago you said, you know, the Democrats
Speaker 5: were saying, hey, all is well the economy as well.
Speaker 5: Break down to the people how you talked about, you know,
Speaker 5: it can't be going too well because people are striking everywhere.
Speaker 2: That isn't that the truth? Thank God the mighty Amazon brother, Chris,
Speaker 2: I thought we were gonna have striking you at ups,
Speaker 2: but they called it off the last minute and got
Speaker 2: a deal. But you got to continually engage because see,
Speaker 2: class struggle is inescapable in the capitalist society. You have
Speaker 2: to be very honest about that. And the end and
Speaker 2: aim is always to squeeze from the worker what you
Speaker 2: can to make the profits as high as you can.
Speaker 2: You got banks right here in New York to generating
Speaker 2: billions and billions and billions of dollars in standing in
Speaker 2: the pockets of the well to do well. We got
Speaker 2: three individuals in the country has wealth equivalent to one
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million citizens and three people, three people.
Speaker 2: That's a key sweat moment when something something just ain't right,
Speaker 2: Dick you same as to with Cop City. Who's supporting
Speaker 2: Cop City? Democrats are Republicans. Black politicians down in Atlanta too,
Speaker 2: what's happening and what is cop city the militarization of
Speaker 2: an already militarized police force to do what to make
Speaker 2: sure that on the Chocolate side of town you're not
Speaker 2: engaging in the kind of protecting service that you ought to.
Speaker 2: It's suppressed, it's contained so it doesn't spill over to
Speaker 2: the other sections of town. Treat them where you want to.
Speaker 2: Look at our dear brother, and we're going to kick
Speaker 2: off the campaign in Mississippi but Matil Day in August
Speaker 2: twenty five and twenty six, and we got the brother
Speaker 2: Jenkins and brother Parker, brother Michael and brother Eddie. You've
Speaker 2: heard about that case, the two who have been so
Speaker 2: brutalized and sexually assaulted down in Mississippi and the and
Speaker 2: the officers just pleaded guilty. My dear brother, Malik Chabba
Speaker 2: just told me about. They just pleaded guilty. But we
Speaker 2: gonna be down there with those brothers. Why because that's
Speaker 2: where we begin, and it's just two hours from Delta, Mississippi.
Speaker 2: That's where the Blues comes from. That's Robert Johnson, hell
Speaker 2: Hound on my trail, that Sunhouse, that's the Smith and
Speaker 2: my rain and you see, that's the twentieth century was
Speaker 2: the most barbaric century of recorded time. Over one hundred
Speaker 2: and sixty million people killed wars, and the greatest breakthrough
Speaker 2: of the twentieth century was black music.
Speaker 3: All right, we got more with Doctor Cornell West. When
Speaker 3: we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
Speaker 3: Waning everybody. It's DJ Envy Charlomagne, the guy. We are
Speaker 3: the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Doctor Cornell West.
Speaker 3: I don't forget. Charlomagne is out.
Speaker 1: So if you want to give somebody.
Speaker 3: Donkey of the day eight hundred five eight five one
Speaker 3: five one phone lines of Wide Open Eye, let's get
Speaker 3: back to Doctor Cornell West, Charlomagne.
Speaker 17: How do you feel?
Speaker 22: Did you hear Meek Mill say recently that the record
Speaker 22: labels pay? Are this more to rap about negativity?
Speaker 2: Oh, there's no doubt. I mean the three albums that
Speaker 2: I did, you know, I was blessed to work with
Speaker 2: Prince and Gerald of Vert and Probable and Jill Scott
Speaker 2: and Rod Digger and whole host of Carrus one and
Speaker 2: so forth. To My album Never Forget came out two
Speaker 2: thousand and seven, and we went to a variety of
Speaker 2: different labels, and they said, we don't want this political crap.
Speaker 2: We want G string music. String music, that's the language
Speaker 2: they use.
Speaker 22: That's somebody from a label said that, Oh yeah, what label?
Speaker 22: Do you remember the label Clyde Davis and them, Wow,
Speaker 22: that's who it was. Wow, that's who it was.
Speaker 2: And I said to myself, I didn't say it because
Speaker 2: again I just listened and is taking it in Well,
Speaker 2: Actually I said something like, you know, I don't have
Speaker 2: anything against G string. I'm a Christian. I'm a Christian,
Speaker 2: but I'm not a Puritan. You love, A good orgasm
Speaker 2: has its role and has its place. I don't think
Speaker 2: we all to just hook up with orgasm machines for
Speaker 2: the rest of our lives and just continually no no
Speaker 2: stop and having a little conversation, stopping to have some relation.
Speaker 2: But when you fetishize that relation to black people, that's
Speaker 2: nothing but white supremacy. In the musical context, you see,
Speaker 2: because Gils got handed crap. Curtis Mayfield ain't crap. Fight
Speaker 2: the power of both pe Public Enemy and the Isley Brothers.
Speaker 2: That's not crap at all. Now, Marvin Gaye saying was
Speaker 2: going on, let's get it on that's part of life.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you need to get it on. Other times you
Speaker 2: got to find out what's going on, and you got
Speaker 2: to prepare yourself spiritually, politically, and so forth. But there's
Speaker 2: no doubt that the spiritual warfare against the younger generation
Speaker 2: that tries to dumb down the music. You know, you
Speaker 2: got seven eleven songs, which is the songs with seven words,
Speaker 2: you sing it eleven times, antilation and stimulu. It doesn't
Speaker 2: keep you keeping.
Speaker 4: On if you win. If you do win, what would
Speaker 4: that do for our community? You think, well, the.
Speaker 2: First thing I'm gonna do is I told them my
Speaker 2: blessed wife again. I said that I'm not going to
Speaker 2: the White House until everybody has a house.
Speaker 17: Let me see.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna be spiritual servant leadership, meaning what then
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about abolition. We're gonna bring back troops
Speaker 2: eight hundred military units around the world. America doesn't have
Speaker 2: to be an empire forcing every nation to succumb to
Speaker 2: its domination. America to be a nation among nations. We
Speaker 2: spend fifty seven cent for every dollar on military. We
Speaker 2: could be using that to wipe our poverty. We can
Speaker 2: be using that for jobs with a living wage. We
Speaker 2: can be using that for medicare for all and so forth.
Speaker 2: So it's going to be a new day in that sense.
Speaker 2: Now you can imagine, I mean, you know very realistically
Speaker 2: that you know when you bring that kind of black
Speaker 2: musical sensibility concerned with catastrophe, swing and improvisation, grounded with
Speaker 2: a courage and of love, they're gonna try to crush
Speaker 2: it like a cockroach.
Speaker 17: You ready for that?
Speaker 2: Oh, I've been ready for that all my life.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 2: Black love is a crime in a white supremacist world.
Speaker 2: Anybody who falls in love with black people will be
Speaker 2: criminalized in a white supremacist.
Speaker 17: We've seen it having so many times.
Speaker 2: Every major black leader we had who fell in love
Speaker 2: with us criminalized, character assassination, literal assassination, marginalization, incarceration, moony y'all,
Speaker 2: blue Jamal. We can go on and on the rube
Speaker 2: all so many just a Shaicura Asada and others.
Speaker 22: Kind of Tupac question. I want to know what what
Speaker 22: do you think Republicans are getting right? And what are
Speaker 22: they getting wrong? What do you think Democrats are getting right?
Speaker 22: What do you think they're getting wrong?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think the Republicans get one thing right. They've
Speaker 2: had historically in the last fifty years, a certain fear
Speaker 2: of centralized government undermining liberties. Now they've given that up
Speaker 2: recently because the neo Fascis have taken over. Because for me,
Speaker 2: you see, I believe in workers' control. I have a
Speaker 2: suspicion of government too, and it's partly because of the
Speaker 2: kind of surveillance and cointael pro and the ways in
Speaker 2: which government has assets to powers of surveillance of each
Speaker 2: and every one of us. So I'm deeply tied to
Speaker 2: personal liberty. I'm deeply tied to individual rights. I think
Speaker 2: people ought to be able to make their own decisions.
Speaker 2: It be women having control over their bodies. It could
Speaker 2: be gay brothers like James Baldwin, lesbian sisters like Audrey Lord,
Speaker 2: or trans or anybody. Individual liberties are important, but they
Speaker 2: are important alongside overcoming structures of domination in the economy,
Speaker 2: in discrimination in the workplace. What do the Democrats get right?
Speaker 2: Democrats get right the defense of rights of women and
Speaker 2: gay brothers and lesbian sisters and trans. You know, they've
Speaker 2: been decent on that wind pushed when black though well,
Speaker 2: neither one of them are fundingly committed to defending black folk.
Speaker 2: There ain't no accident. That's why supremacy at work at
Speaker 2: its deepest level. It's inseparable from the economy. It's inseparable
Speaker 2: from education, it's inseparable from the spiritual condition of black people.
Speaker 2: We don't love ourselves, affirm ourselves, and so forth. But
Speaker 2: it means to me that neither one of these parties
Speaker 2: has ever ever made it a priority to empower black people.
Speaker 17: And see what that said. I don't understand how come
Speaker 17: the Green Party.
Speaker 22: Isn't able to make more of an impact because they
Speaker 22: are a viable, I would think, a viable alternative to
Speaker 22: this two party system that people claim to be sick of.
Speaker 2: Well, part of it is the Green Party itself has
Speaker 2: never made it a major priority to empowerable either. Am
Speaker 2: I telling the truth about even absolutely. They concerned about
Speaker 2: the environments, rightly, so, they concerned about capitalism rightly, so,
Speaker 2: they're concerned about patriarchy rightly, so patriarch in relation to
Speaker 2: black sisters, Brown sisters, Indigenous sisters, Middle Eastern sisters, and
Speaker 2: so forth, Yes, in principle, but not a priority. Not
Speaker 2: a priority, you see. And so those of us who
Speaker 2: are improvisational in moving from one context to the next.
Speaker 2: You had to be true to what's inside of you.
Speaker 2: That's all. You just have to be true. It would
Speaker 2: be like James Brown, you know, playing the Funk in
Speaker 2: the Apollo and go to Carnegie Hall and start playing
Speaker 2: Lawrence Welk. He's not gonna do that. He's true to himself.
Speaker 2: The Funk is gonna be as funky and Carnegie Hall
Speaker 2: and is gonna be in the Apollo. That's what we need.
Speaker 2: We need politicians. We need black professionals like that, you know,
Speaker 2: not just wearing the mask and trying to get through
Speaker 2: based on their careers and the next opportunity they can size.
Speaker 17: How do you support your campaign? Brother?
Speaker 2: We got the website.
Speaker 4: Cornel West twenty four dot org dot org.
Speaker 17: Yeah, you got going ahead.
Speaker 22: To donate, the volunteer all of that Cornel West twenty
Speaker 22: four dot org.
Speaker 4: We appreciate you, brother for joining us this all.
Speaker 2: But you all stay strong because that I said, this
Speaker 2: is consecrated space. Mask people who come through here, the musicians,
Speaker 2: the artists, the leaders, the Yesterday you had the brothers
Speaker 2: wrestling with the ghetto chef and the food and the
Speaker 2: mother in front of the prisons and things. This is
Speaker 2: this is the space. This is like the ring shout place,
Speaker 2: you know, and on the slavery was against the law
Speaker 2: for us reading writers, against the law for us to
Speaker 2: worship God with our white supervision. We had to steal
Speaker 2: away and hold a hand in the ring shout and
Speaker 2: then just raise a beautiful song, swing old sweet Cherry.
Speaker 2: They consecrated that space where they could be free in
Speaker 2: their deep African black cells.
Speaker 4: What's so?
Speaker 2: It is here on fifty fifth Street?
Speaker 17: All right?
Speaker 2: Three?
Speaker 17: We call this the Black Mothership.
Speaker 2: That's right, Black Mothership. That's oh now is that Son
Speaker 2: Raw is at George Clinton?
Speaker 17: And then George Clinton.
Speaker 4: It's doctor Cornell West and it's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Good morning everybody. It's d j n V
Speaker 3: Charlamagne de Goude. We are the Breakfast Club. We got
Speaker 3: our guest co host Clodia Jordan here. And let's get
Speaker 3: to rumors.
Speaker 4: Everyone where I really this is the rumor reports the boys.
Speaker 4: Sometimes they say it downstake.
Speaker 18: On the Breakfast Club. Jordan's stories are great.
Speaker 4: If you live long enough.
Speaker 27: What's gonna have?
Speaker 2: That's very true?
Speaker 18: Very true?
Speaker 4: What's okay? Taylor? Taylor made it on another intro. I
Speaker 4: like that one. Yeah, that's all. That was cute. Okay,
Speaker 4: not like Soul's boy. My stories are true. Here's true too,
Speaker 4: all right, Jamie Fox and Jennifer Anathon, listen, there's a
Speaker 4: whole bunch of backlash. He received backlash for a social
Speaker 4: media posts that it shared regarding fake friends. The post
Speaker 4: said they killed this dude named Jesus. What do you
Speaker 4: think they'll do to you? Hashtag fake friends, hashtag fake love. Well.
Speaker 4: The posts sparked a whole bunch of criticism of Fox's
Speaker 4: vague mentioning of the words you know, they causing the
Speaker 4: Jewish community to feel targeted. A lot of people came
Speaker 4: to Jamie's offense, dating the post was a cultural thing,
Speaker 4: and most people knew that this was a reference to,
Speaker 4: you know, betrayal of Judas and not an attack of
Speaker 4: the Jews on the Jews. Jennifer Anithon received backlash because
Speaker 4: she liked the posts and people's like hold up now,
Speaker 4: sis relaxed, and she posted this story. She posted it
Speaker 4: to a story this really makes me sick. I did
Speaker 4: not like this post on purpose or by accident. And
Speaker 4: more importantly, I want to be clear to my friends
Speaker 4: and anyone hurt by this showing up on their feeds.
Speaker 4: I do not support any form of anti Semitism, and
Speaker 4: I truly don't tolerate hate of any kind.
Speaker 3: The only anti thing I got from that post was
Speaker 3: anti friends, and the post had less to do with
Speaker 3: that and more to his statement of fake friends. I'm
Speaker 3: sure with somebody in his life that was a fake friend.
Speaker 3: And he was saying and in our culture we've said
Speaker 3: things like this before. I don't think he was attacking
Speaker 3: any group at all. You're like, come on, it's to
Speaker 3: the point where people are being too sensitive now. I
Speaker 3: guess people felt offended, so he decided to take it
Speaker 3: down and apologize.
Speaker 4: But he wasn't going at any group.
Speaker 3: He was talking about a friend that I'm sure did
Speaker 3: him dirty, and that's what he was trying to compare it.
Speaker 4: To white people. White people, this is for you, as
Speaker 4: this is your black sided whiteside, and this is my
Speaker 4: black sides speaking right now, okay, and speaking to my
Speaker 4: mama and to all the white folks out there. There's
Speaker 4: things and our community that is we don't have to
Speaker 4: explain because it's understood.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 4: Who's grandma did not tell them? Baby? If they killed Jesus,
Speaker 4: What do you think they'll do to you? That's something
Speaker 4: that we say. It means if the most perfect human
Speaker 4: that we've ever heard of, I known of perfect being
Speaker 4: was murdered or killed and people betrayed him, don't think
Speaker 4: you're better than That has nothing to do with anti Semitism.
Speaker 4: It's unbelievable that and I honestly I don't feel that
Speaker 4: he should have apologized, and Jamie posted this apology. I
Speaker 4: want to apologize to the Jewish community and everyone that
Speaker 4: was offended by my post. I know my choice of
Speaker 4: words I've caused offense and I'm sorry. That was never
Speaker 4: my intent. To clarify. I was betrayed by a fake
Speaker 4: friend and that's what I meant by they, not anything more.
Speaker 4: I have love in my heart for everyone I love
Speaker 4: and support the Jewish community. My deepest apologies to anyone
Speaker 4: that was offended. Nothing but love always, Jamie Fox. Jamie Fox,
Speaker 4: this is my black side speaking to you as well.
Speaker 4: You shouldn't apologize. The more we uh tiptoe around things
Speaker 4: like this, and it gives validity to people even thinking
Speaker 4: that was that was such a reach. Jennifer Aniston and
Speaker 4: the community that thinks that they were come a for you.
Speaker 4: He was coming for you. He was not. He wasn't right. Like,
Speaker 4: we get into a point where we have to like
Speaker 4: backpaddle everything we say to appease one group. Where's the
Speaker 4: apologies to us?
Speaker 3: Yeah, everything is intention right, and his intention wasn't to
Speaker 3: offend anybody. And I mean, and that's clear. The problem
Speaker 3: is is people get offended by anything. We've seen it
Speaker 3: happen when Lizzo said something, had to take something out
Speaker 3: of one of her records. We seen it when Beyonce
Speaker 3: and Beyonce had to take something out of her record.
Speaker 3: That's cultural things that we've said. Now, if it was
Speaker 3: an intention to offend somebody, I completely understand. But in
Speaker 3: this case, there was no way, no how, not even
Speaker 3: a little bit of an offensive tone from Jamie Fox.
Speaker 4: The problem is everybody wants to be a victim, and
Speaker 4: everyone's like, I'm offended. Back in our day growing up,
Speaker 4: we're close to the same age, right, that used to
Speaker 4: build character. Even if you were offended by something, you
Speaker 4: would learn how to rebound from that or have a
Speaker 4: clap back. And I feel like we've gotten so I
Speaker 4: can't even say the word i't want to use, but
Speaker 4: we become weakened and water down where we just can't
Speaker 4: take anything, and being offended is the worst thing on earth, right,
Speaker 4: Being offended I was made me a savage and be
Speaker 4: able to respond quickly and come back with something we
Speaker 4: need to bring back playing a dozens and make people
Speaker 4: hard again.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but pause, no, no, But I will also say this,
Speaker 3: and I'm sure Jamie probably have a lot of fans,
Speaker 3: a lot of follows that are Jewish, and maybe they
Speaker 3: felt a way about it, and he wanted to be like,
Speaker 3: you know what, that wasn't my attention and if you
Speaker 3: felt that way, I'm sorry, But I don't think.
Speaker 4: People took it like that. I just think people took
Speaker 4: look for a story and took that story ran with it.
Speaker 4: And shame on you, Jennifer Anison, because I like you
Speaker 4: and I feel like you put a battery in people's
Speaker 4: backs with that. He really did all right. Moving on
Speaker 4: Neo apologizing to the LBGTQ community for recent remarks. He
Speaker 4: recently did an interview with Glory Valais on blad TV Now.
Speaker 4: During his interview, he gave his personal opinion on children
Speaker 4: and gender identity. Let's take a listen.
Speaker 27: I have no issue with with the lb G. I
Speaker 27: have no problem with none of yet with nobody. They love,
Speaker 27: we love, do what you do exactly. I just personally
Speaker 27: come from an era where a man was a man
Speaker 27: and a woman was a woman, and it wasn't but
Speaker 27: two genders, and that's just how it rocked. I feel
Speaker 27: like parents have almost forgotten what the role of a
Speaker 27: parent is. It's like, Okay, if your little boy comes
Speaker 27: to you and says, Daddy, I want to be a girl,
Speaker 27: and you just let him rock with that.
Speaker 4: You just let he's five And where did he get
Speaker 4: that here?
Speaker 17: If you let this.
Speaker 27: Five year old boy decide to eat candy all day,
Speaker 27: he's gonna do this. Exactly when did it become a
Speaker 27: good idea to let a five year old, let a
Speaker 27: six year old letter twelve year old make a life
Speaker 27: changing decision for their self?
Speaker 4: Where's the lie? Where's the lie? But then he with
Speaker 4: much pressure, he was forced into an apology. He said,
Speaker 4: after much reflection, I'd like to express my deepest apology
Speaker 4: to anyone I may have hurt with my comments on
Speaker 4: parenting and gender identity. I've always been an advocate for
Speaker 4: love and inclusivity in the LGGTQ community. So I understand
Speaker 4: how my comments may have been interpreted as insensitive and offensive.
Speaker 4: It goes on and on and on, once again, another
Speaker 4: black person having to apologize for having an opinion. Now, Listen,
Speaker 4: I understand it's tumultuous times and the community. I've definitely
Speaker 4: been under attack one thousand percent, so a black people, right.
Speaker 4: I agree with comments about parents not really parenting anymore
Speaker 4: and like kind of letting the children lead the way,
Speaker 4: and I think we need to get back to a
Speaker 4: place where listen, I want to wear makeup. When I
Speaker 4: was twelve, I wasn't allowed to because my mom put
Speaker 4: her foot down and said, listen, that's something you do
Speaker 4: when you're older. You get too closer to me, to
Speaker 4: an adult, we wouldn't let a kid eat whatever they want,
Speaker 4: play with fire. I think when you're young, you go
Speaker 4: through phases, and I think, let kids be kids and
Speaker 4: just like live and just worry about kid things. I
Speaker 4: think sexuality and sex is something that we five and
Speaker 4: six years old. It shouldn't even be on the radar
Speaker 4: at that point. I think, like, I think we're just
Speaker 4: getting introducing sex and sexuality is so young, and I
Speaker 4: know people might fit maud of that comment. But I'm
Speaker 4: standing by and I'm not apologizing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I feel like, as a parent, you
Speaker 3: decide to parent your kid the way that you want
Speaker 3: to parent your kid.
Speaker 4: I'm with you.
Speaker 3: I feel that at age five six, I don't want
Speaker 3: my kids to be thinking about sex, not at all,
Speaker 3: not any type of sex, right, And it's not just
Speaker 3: a LBGT. I think he's straight sex, not gay sex,
Speaker 3: not any type of sex. I don't want any type
Speaker 3: of sex references at the age of five and six,
Speaker 3: and not even at the age of ten. I have
Speaker 3: a ten year old, a nine year old. I had
Speaker 3: to start counting. One is about to be seven, and
Speaker 3: one's about to be two, and that's not something that
Speaker 3: I even want on their mind. I want them to
Speaker 3: be kids. I want them to play outside. I want
Speaker 3: them to play basketball and football and dance. And my
Speaker 3: daughter's making movies at the house using iMovie now, having
Speaker 3: a great time. But I don't want sex to be
Speaker 3: a part of that. And I don't make them or
Speaker 3: allow them to watch anything that has any type of
Speaker 3: any sexual you know, any windows at all. So am
Speaker 3: I a bad parent for that?
Speaker 28: No?
Speaker 3: But if Neil wants to raise his kids. I think
Speaker 3: he has a lot of them. He can raise them
Speaker 3: the way that he wants to be. And I don't
Speaker 3: have a problem with that.
Speaker 4: So I mean, what do you say? And there is
Speaker 4: an argument right to the critics, I will say, hey,
Speaker 4: but you know, I want my kid to feel comfortable
Speaker 4: living in their truth correct And they say they recognize
Speaker 4: that our early and I do believe that. I you
Speaker 4: believe children, some children are born, They're born that way.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean? Like, I don't want to
Speaker 4: stifle them, right, I just think we should talk less
Speaker 4: about sex and more about kid things. Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 3: I'm never going to stifle how my kid feels, or
Speaker 3: what my kid wants or what my kid thinks that
Speaker 3: they him or her wants. But I will try to
Speaker 3: lead a life as a kid. When I was a kid,
Speaker 3: I was a kid. I played I played video games,
Speaker 3: I played baseball. I did whatever I wanted to do.
Speaker 3: My parents didn't stifle me, but I also didn't have
Speaker 3: Like I'm a grown ass man.
Speaker 4: And I still haven't had a conversation with the birds
Speaker 4: and bees with my mom and.
Speaker 3: My dad yet. I'm still waiting for that conversation. Dad
Speaker 3: I know you're listening.
Speaker 17: Everyone.
Speaker 3: We still didn't have that conversation, but that's what it was.
Speaker 3: We didn't have that conversation. When we get to a
Speaker 3: little older age, when there teens and it's more and
Speaker 3: then they won't have that conversation. But right now, I
Speaker 3: just want my kids to be kids, just play, have fun,
Speaker 3: enjoy life, support.
Speaker 4: Them without stifling them. But I don't encourage any kind
Speaker 4: of sex talk until they're.
Speaker 17: A little older.
Speaker 4: Maybe I feel the same way. All right, were on
Speaker 4: the same page. A right, Y'll be mad if y'all
Speaker 4: want you whatever. That's what we think. And I think
Speaker 4: we got to get back to your point where we
Speaker 4: can have opinions on things without it being called a phobia.

Speaker 26: where's the cycle. While the boats going and the hitter
Speaker 26: boat and Harriet.
Speaker 23: Was trying to come in.
Speaker 12: The smaller boats went in.
Speaker 26: A way they were trying to move the boat and
Speaker 26: the security they caused it to me and basically they
Speaker 26: started unhensing the boat and booting at bat and the
Speaker 26: guy the white women that went down there, you know

Speaker 31: But instead of your quotes throwing up.
Speaker 26: There something going on by their basis, some of them
Speaker 26: blankstot got back in their boat that sat there. So
Speaker 26: that's why we see the gentlemen and now everybody jumping
Speaker 26: off the boat. It's because they saw them jump on
Speaker 26: his bed and literally got on their boat like what
Speaker 26: happened to them, And that's why when the boat got
Speaker 26: close and they were able to leap over and one individual,
Speaker 26: I think he was sixteen years old, he.

Speaker 15: Okay, I gotta know what's going on.
Speaker 4: But the white side don't do that. They all jumped
Speaker 4: on that guy without even though he was just doing

Speaker 12: Right, But man ain't no way. It can't go down
Speaker 12: without like that.
Speaker 3: I'm with you because when I look at that brother,
Speaker 3: I look at my father, my uncle, my brother, like
Speaker 3: you look at a family member, and especially if it's
Speaker 3: a black woman, I'm looking at mama, grandmama.
Speaker 1: My sister, my daughter.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You're just looking at to really just to beat up
Speaker 1: anybody that that that mess with them.
Speaker 4: Hello, who's this?

Speaker 4: Detroit? Yo? Yellow colored in Eli.
Speaker 3: When I start mentioning physical fighting, Detroit calling so crazy
Speaker 3: because you gotta.
Speaker 10: I wish you was a boat called and here you're
Speaker 10: here and Nick County and the doing this, the tears.
Speaker 10: I've been talking to you in the water episode.
Speaker 4: Elijah can't curse.
Speaker 3: So I so imagine that party I did in Detroit
Speaker 3: two weeks ago, right, you know, right on the water side,
Speaker 3: and a brother was getting beat up by some white folks.
Speaker 4: What's happening, man, that's.
Speaker 10: The whole entire crowding out there.
Speaker 4: The whole crowd would have whipped his ass.
Speaker 10: Yeah, he ain't thrown in the order too. We had
Speaker 10: a boat like the Princess, they probab would have put
Speaker 10: up under it.
Speaker 4: Damn it man A thank you. Let me go to
Speaker 4: one more caller. Hello, who's this yo?
Speaker 12: Hevy was good?
Speaker 4: Miss Mitch? Where you call it from?
Speaker 15: I'm calling from Atlanta?
Speaker 4: Atlanta? All right?
Speaker 1: Now you see a brother in distressed, Mitch, Mitch, what
Speaker 1: you're doing?
Speaker 4: Mitch?
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, smoke, it's going all the way up. You
Speaker 12: already know it's twenty twenty three.
Speaker 10: You already know it was the other way around.
Speaker 8: We went to end up. You know, we gotta gotta
Speaker 8: support our people.
Speaker 12: We gotta fight for our people.
Speaker 4: Man, if we can keep this energy going and then
Speaker 4: start dealing with each other, like stop stop the nonsense
Speaker 4: between us. We can be so powerful. I'm with you.
Speaker 4: I am totally with you. Go to Twitter and look
Speaker 4: at black Twitter. They are going and they had a
Speaker 4: meme of a Timberland pull up to a doc and
Speaker 4: had the SS dead ass on it. Like there was
Speaker 4: so many funny memes all over social media. Like go
Speaker 4: to black Twitter and just just google it. It's so funny.
Speaker 4: Jesus Christ.
Speaker 3: I mean, I will say this, I love the fact
Speaker 3: that we all stood up and roll with each other.
Speaker 3: I just pray to God that you know, in other
Speaker 3: situations we could ride ride with each.
Speaker 4: Other more often.
Speaker 3: I mean there's so many times where a lot of
Speaker 3: times we go against each other and not even know anything.
Speaker 3: It was good to see that that we supported that brother,
Speaker 3: we helped that brother and had that brother's back.
Speaker 4: But it doesn't stop there.
Speaker 3: We got to continue to support our own we gotta
Speaker 3: to continue support our own businesses. We got to continue
Speaker 3: to support, support, support, support, and I don't think we
Speaker 3: should stop until we support each other.
Speaker 4: And there's an art even to be made that they
Speaker 4: the brothers that did jumping and the sisters perhaps could
Speaker 4: have prevented a murder. That guy could have been murdered, correct,
Speaker 4: like it was eight on one. They could have stopped
Speaker 4: him until he was done breathing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: And no one got killed, So we can make a
Speaker 4: light of the situation. But I do like that, you know,
Speaker 4: the brother was protective.
Speaker 17: All right.
Speaker 1: Now, we got rooms on the way. But we're talking
Speaker 1: about Yo.
Speaker 4: A big story with Kai Sannat and how they are
Speaker 4: coming for his neck. Will got more on that when
Speaker 4: we get back.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 3: Good morning everybody. It's j n V Charlamagne the God.
Speaker 3: We are the Breakfast Club. We got our guest co
Speaker 3: host Claudia Jordan.
Speaker 4: Fun Times here. Good morning.
Speaker 1: Shout out to my brother Rob. He's listening this morning.
Speaker 3: He was like, support, support, support, we have to support.
Speaker 3: But he was like, yo, E, I have a restaurant.
Speaker 3: You haven't came one time. All right, I'm gonna come
Speaker 3: to your restaurant today. Oh I forgot it's closed today,
Speaker 3: so I can't even come today, Rob.
Speaker 4: And you're gonna pay for it, right, You're gonna pay.
Speaker 4: You're not gonna ask for the hookup. You canna support
Speaker 4: black businesses the restaurant.
Speaker 1: I'm just come, yes, I am. Well, let's get to
Speaker 1: the rooms.
Speaker 8: Let's go.
Speaker 4: Everyone where Really the rumor reports.
Speaker 6: Toy soldier boys.
Speaker 4: Sometimes they say it sounds fake.
Speaker 18: On the breakfast Flood, Jordan's stories are.
Speaker 4: If you live long enough, he's gonna have story that
Speaker 4: is very true. So all right. Twitch star high Sonata
Speaker 4: is being charged with the felony and two misdemeanors after
Speaker 4: his free PlayStation giveaway in New York City went left Now.
Speaker 4: He collaborated with another influence of Fenom to give away
Speaker 4: five PlayStations and Union Square. What can whatever could go wrong? Well,
Speaker 4: the two invited there are millions of followers to join
Speaker 4: them in New York City at four pm for the giveaway.
Speaker 28: Now.
Speaker 4: According to the police, the crowd grew around three pm,
Speaker 4: spilling into surrounding areas. It really got crazy. It's reported
Speaker 4: that most of the crowd was peaceful, but a handful
Speaker 4: of attendees began throwing rocks, bottles, and building materials out
Speaker 4: of others in the crowd. Police ended up detaining sixty
Speaker 4: five people, including Kai Sanat. Nearly half of them were
Speaker 4: juveniles and uh, I don't want to call him with that,
Speaker 4: but Mayor of New York had something to say. He
Speaker 4: needs to beat he's outside every Adams, this.
Speaker 28: Is a influencer. Kai Sanat was released from police custody
Speaker 28: today after yesterday's chaos.
Speaker 4: In Union Square.
Speaker 28: Police issued a desk appearance ticket to Sanat, which requires
Speaker 28: him to appear in court on August eighteenth. He faces
Speaker 28: charges of inciting a riot and promoting an unlawful gathering
Speaker 28: after Sainat's giveaway event turned violent. Today, Mayor Adams spoke
Speaker 28: about the investigation into the giveaway event, saying he believes
Speaker 28: other people could also be responsible for the riot.
Speaker 9: You don't come to get free game boys and bring
Speaker 9: smoke bombs and bring madis and bring other disruptive items,
Speaker 9: and so we believe there were some outside influencers that
Speaker 9: may have attempted to aggravate this situation.
Speaker 3: Now, as far as Costino's concerned, I mean he's an influence.
Speaker 3: He has a large influence, and with influence also comes responsibility.
Speaker 3: I don't think he wanted this. I don't think he
Speaker 3: intended for this to happen. I think he was just
Speaker 3: trying to do something nice. For his followers and his fans,
Speaker 3: and it got out of control. But a lot of
Speaker 3: times we gotta think, you know, he didn't think. I'm
Speaker 3: sure he didn't think what ten thousand people are going
Speaker 3: to be there? Some people said twenty thousand. But if
Speaker 3: you really think about it, think about a festival with ten, fifteen,
Speaker 3: twenty thousand no security, you know, think about a concert
Speaker 3: or a baseball game or a football game with no security.
Speaker 3: That's what happened in Union Square, and it could have
Speaker 3: got a lot worse. Do I think he should get
Speaker 3: jail time or anything like that. No, I mean I
Speaker 3: think it was a learning lesson, and I think hopefully
Speaker 3: he did learn that lesson. Something else that was very
Speaker 3: disturbing is when I seen one of the cars driving off,
Speaker 3: there was like ten kids on top of the car
Speaker 3: and the car was taking off. One of them kids
Speaker 3: could have flew off and killed and died. But no,
Speaker 3: I don't think he should get jail time. If they
Speaker 3: want to charge him a fee of fine for whatever
Speaker 3: it may be, maybe for what happened with Union Square
Speaker 3: and a couple of those businesses and cars that got
Speaker 3: you know, destroyed, that's fine. But I don't think he
Speaker 3: should get any type of jail time. He's a young kid.
Speaker 3: He was trying to do something nice for his followers
Speaker 3: and his fans. I know people saying, yeah, but he
Speaker 3: shouldn't have, but I don't. That wasn't in his intention.
Speaker 3: He wasn't intending on waking up that day and say,
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm an f New York City up, like,
Speaker 3: let me do something nice.
Speaker 4: Let me give away PlayStations of people and people love that, right,
Speaker 4: and you're giving you're actually giving back. What's wrong with
Speaker 4: the people that showed up with smoke bombs and Minty's?
Speaker 4: What were y'all thinking? Why would you go to giveaway
Speaker 4: with that?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 4: What was did y'all have a conversation, like a private
Speaker 4: conversation like let's go turn up on this? Why would
Speaker 4: you do that? And now your boy that's trying to
Speaker 4: give y'all something is in trouble now, correct and Erry
Speaker 4: Adams mayor Adams, I'm not calling you. You are outside.
Speaker 4: He did well, he thought adjacent. He in them streets
Speaker 4: a lot. Is there a first lady here in New York?
Speaker 4: I don't think there's the first lady? But he wants
Speaker 4: to touch it.
Speaker 3: He wants to touch the soil. He wants to see
Speaker 3: what's going on. They just to breathe the street. He
Speaker 3: wants to see the street. As an ex NYPD, so
Speaker 3: he's used to being out there in the streets, so
Speaker 3: that's what he's doing.
Speaker 4: He's definitely touching the soil. Eric all right, y'all moving on.
Speaker 4: Speaking of touch in Usha comments on Keiki Palm's breakup
Speaker 4: and now we all know about the infamous scene where
Speaker 4: Usher was singing to Keiki Palmer and her baby daddy
Speaker 4: Darius Jackson. You know, he took the social media to
Speaker 4: share his disdain for how Kekey was carrying herself as
Speaker 4: a mother in the footage. You know how it went viral.
Speaker 4: Usher has been called by Lauren Lorossa, who was here
Speaker 4: he guest co hosted the Breakfast Club. She has some
Speaker 4: exclusive footage or audio where he joked about his new
Speaker 4: name being a domestic terrorist, like he messing up happy home. Correct.
Speaker 4: What do you think about this?
Speaker 3: I think USh is having fun. I think people need
Speaker 3: to stop Ush's performing, and that's part of his performance.
Speaker 3: He pulls people up. He pulls up women that you know,
Speaker 3: especially a famous that he knows is gonna go viral,
Speaker 3: and I don't have a problem with that. People have
Speaker 3: done that all through the times. I mean, we've seen
Speaker 3: Jenny Jackson pull people on stage. Ush's having a good
Speaker 3: time and I can't wait to see Usher in Vegas.
Speaker 3: It's next a residency show. I'm gonna take the wife.
Speaker 17: We're gonna go.
Speaker 4: How do I get tickets to this? I want to go.
Speaker 4: I want to go. Try to reach your tar on
Speaker 4: casino host because I'm a degenerate gambler, and they said
Speaker 4: that is sold out. They said it's so tough to
