that he calling my phone

it's topic time
call 800-585-1051
to join in to the discussion with the breakfast club
morning everybody
it's DJ Envy
Charlamagne Tha Guy we are the breakfast club
now if you're just joining us we were talking
about a topic we were talking behind the scenes
now behind the scenes this actually
started from Charlamagne's donkey yesterday
yes because during donkey of the day a young man robbed a woman at gunpoint and while he was
robbing her he made her follow him on facebook and actually hit her up and they were going back
and forth and he you know wanted to go on a date with her and told her she he was he's sorry he
had to rob her she's too pretty to be robbed and i'm sitting there thinking like he's only thinking she likes him because he
she replied to him on facebook he's too stupid and clearly too arrogant to not realize he's
getting lined up to get uh get arrested but it made me think like why can't men you know why
can't a woman give a man a compliment uh just look in a man's direction without the man thinking, hey, man, that woman wants me?
I mean, I just think that's how society is and how people people see things.
I feel like if a woman compliments a guy goes out of her way to say something looks nice or something looks good or I think that is, you know, I think that leaves the door for, you know, maybe a conversation.
I highly disagree i i
you know what i think a compliment is what a compliment like simple as that if i tell you i
like your shirt if i tell you i like your sneakers it's because i like your shirt and i like your
sneakers like simple as that like it has nothing to do with anything else and i don't know why men
uh don't understand that i disagree and i think the same thing with men i think if a man compliments
a woman it's not because he's just like oh that's a dope shirt i think a lot of times it's because
he wants to kind of just holler and see if the door's open i remember that mr married man remember
that remember that next time you tell a woman you like her sneakers you know what i mean i don't
you don't tell a woman you like her i don't only if i compliment somebody somebody that we all know
i don't i don't i'll never say my blade hey ma you got some dope kicks on i don't do that no that's not true because like sometimes you might see a girl with a nice
hairdo like i love dreadlocks you know i mean i'm like y'all like your dreads now i will say that
if i do see a nice head and i and i might say hey uh who did your hair because i would love my my
wife would probably love my daughter's hair to look like that it's the truth it's the truth it's
just still a compliment.
There's nothing wrong
with giving people compliments, man.
Intention matters.
Brandon, Brandon,
step to the mic for a second.
Intention matters.
Brandon, step to the mic.
Brandon.
Brandon is our Ghana connection.
If a woman pays you a compliment,
does that open the door?
What I said was,
you better not pay me no compliment
because I'm going to go for it.
Brandon, how old are you, Brandon?
I'm 27 years old.
Brandon is 27 years old.
He don't know no better yet, okay?
He's young. he's hot,
he's horny at all times.
A woman can look his way, and he think the woman want him. You know what I mean?
There'll be women that be coming in this building, they ain't paying Brandon
no attention. He be like, I think
I got a shot. Rubbing his chest.
I think I got a shot. Janelle Monae.
I think I got a shot. Who was it that he
really said he had a shot with, Ray?
Chloe. Chloe Bailey. I think I got a shot with your cousin. I think I got a shot Who was it that he really said He had a shot with Red? Chloe Chloe I think I got a shot
With your cousin

With your cousin
Somebody put me down
With his cousin though
But now Brandon
If you give a woman a compliment
Are you opening the door
For maybe trying to holler as well?
Yeah
If they're not a friend
Or a co-worker
If you see a woman in the street
And you're like nice shirt
You're not saying nice shirt
Because
If it's a stranger
Yeah I'm
Yes
He's 27
He don't know no better You can give people compliments and nothing be behind it
take it from somebody who's a sex symbol bro I've been unbelievably handsome my
whole life ever ever ever since I was a little kid older women women my age oh
you so handsome you so cute isn't that I thought about it it's never been
anything I can't believe anything you say. That's a goddamn lie. Hello, who's this?
Geechee.
Hey, Geechee.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Now, Geechee, what do you think?
If a woman pays you a compliment, is that opening the door to have a conversation at least?
Now, we all know nowadays these women are stuck up.
They don't want to talk to nobody.
So if a woman pays you a compliment with your outfit or your appearance period, that's opening up a lot.
Man, if y'all don't see that.
Tell the man he's married.
So he out the game.
He can't really even speak on this.
And be out the game too.
He should be.
I am out the game.
He married too.
I am out the game.
I just think y'all sound ridiculous thinking that just because
a woman says you,
gives you a compliment
that she wants you.
I didn't say she wants you,
but she's opening the door
for a conversation at least.
No, she's not.
Minimal.
No, she's not. Yes, she is. Let's be real, man. You didn't say she wants you, but she's opening the door for a conversation at least. No, she's not. Minimal. No, she's not.
Yes, she is.
Let's be real, man.
You go to the club these days,
women aren't even trying
to say two words to you.
So if they look at you
and pay you a compliment,
I think that's opening the door
that leads to a conversation.
You know what a mistake
y'all making right now?
What?
Talking n***a.
Go to the women.
Are we going to go to women
when we come back?
Go to some women.
Ask the women.
How are we talking
about what women mean?
But I'm also telling you what guys feel like when you pay them a compliment.
I know guys feel that way, but we stupid.
You're right.
Go to the women.

uh we're talking about compliments and we were having this conversation behind the scenes saying
if a woman compliments a guy does that mean she's opening the door for at least a conversation such a ridiculous train of thought that men have and this whole conversation is just
confirming what i already knew a woman can't even look in a man's direction without the man thinking
she want me you know one of the stupidest things men say but i'm gonna have her how you know
you know what i mean like how do you know this, how you could just look at a woman and say, I'm going to F her. How do you know?
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Christy.
Hey, Christy, good morning.
Hey, Christy, the bus driver, good morning.
How you doing?
Happy birthday, Solomon.
Thank you, queen.
Appreciate you.
Now, Christy, if you compliment a guy, right?
A compliment a guy's outfit, clothes, sneakers, kicks.
Are you opening the door for at least a conversation?
No.
Thank you.
I'm a bus driver, and I interact with people all day.
And I may compliment a woman.
I'm not gay.
True indeed.
Okay.
But if you compliment a guy, let's say you see a nice, handsome guy walking on the bus,
and you say, hey, that's a nice shirt.
You don't think that's opening the door for at least a conversation?
It might open a conversation.
He might come back tomorrow and be like, oh, you was the one that said I had a nice shirt on.
So he's going to wear a nice shirt again the next day.
You see?
He might wear the same shirt again.
He might wear the same shirt again.
But you complimenting him because, you know, you think he's handsome right why are you trying
to sway the jury thank you christy all right y'all have a good day tabitha hello how are you
how you feeling this morning tabitha i am so blessed all right now we're talking about if
you compliment a man right does that open the
door for a conversation um i don't believe so i'm a real estate broker and i was complimenting
a builder on his work we went and we um purchased the property from the dirt and then he built the
property in three months and i complimented to his wife who was the other agent on the other side.
And so the product was sold, and then I needed her again.
And she's like not responding to me because I complimented her husband,
and I said he did such a good job.
He's so awesome.
He's great.
And I really would mean it, you know, in no way just complimenting this product and he won't
call me back i'm gonna tell you exactly what happened in that situation that man went to his
wife and said you was flirting with him i guarantee it i guarantee it yo man your girl that show she
was flirting with me yo all you did was compliment him on his work but he took it as oh she want me
and so he want to look like the man to his wife when he went to his wife and told his wife you
was flirting with him guaranteed oh man i mean that is totally not it and i really need him for
another client see what i'm saying thank you mama yes thank you men gotta stop leaving with their
ego this is ridiculous hello who's this? This is Ronnie from Chumtown.
843, what's happening, my brother?
Ronnie, talk to us.
Yeah, man.
I don't feel like a woman.
If she give me a compliment on my shirt
or give me a compliment on my clothes,
I don't feel like she's actually flirting.
I just feel like she's like my style,
like my swag, how I come in.
But I do feel like if I come back with a compliment
and she kind of give me that laugh, that smirk,
I can kind of get in the door, man.
See?
It's opening up the conversation.
No.
He took it somewhere else.
Like, meaning that she complimented your shirt
and then you replied back with something probably flirty.
And then when she replied...
Come on, man.
You know I love to talk down, man.
You give me that little smile, that little talk.
I know. That's what I'm saying, but you replied
back with something flirty.
That's right. When she replied
to that energy, that's different.
That's different.
Just give me a compliment. I get that all the time in Chelsea.
I mean, I appreciate it. I give it back.
You know, you're from the South, so
do a good compliment. You know, you're from the South, so kind of do good compliments.

If you see a handsome young man and
you like his shirt, right? And you say, hey
brother, that's a nice shirt that you're
wearing. It fits well. Is that opening the
door for a conversation, Lulu? Let's be honest.
Yes, it is.
It depends on the
environment, but it could be
flirting. It could be breaking the ice, but it could be flirting.
It could be breaking the ice, being approachable towards the person.
