And quite frankly, I question how many other women are out there that may bring forward allegations in the future. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Have you ever thought about going voiceover? I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator, and seeker of male validation. I'm also the girl behind voiceover, the movement that exploded in 2024. You might hear that term and think it's about celibacy,
Starting point is 00:02:09 but to me, VoiceOver is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships. It's flexible, it's customizable, and it's a personal process. Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now. Let me hear it. No.

I end up going to sleep Oh, yeah, hell yeah, I wanted to sleep way before that y'all stay there for the whole thing. Y'all ain't see Kirk Franklin I was trying to because I really really love Kirk Franklin
Starting point is 00:03:05 but I ain't the Lord don't come when he's that late the Lord come on time that's right he don't come when you call but he always comes on time we gotta be up and y'all didn't see Snoop? nope of course I did I did I ended up going to sleep around like 12 something Snoop was dope Snoop killed him last night Dr. Dre really did good presenting him his Icon Award. I thought that was really dope. Well, you think they were being a little petty to each other when Dr. Dre started throwing shots at Snoop? A little bit like, didn't he do ass like this? And then Snoop's first thing out was, yeah, that's why. Thank you for letting me write deep cover, NG thing, ghost writing for you.
Starting point is 00:03:38 It was definitely a little bit of shade, but I felt like they handled it well. Both of them handled it well. Dr. Dre looked good, I ain't seen him in a while. He actually looked good. And all that was in the prompter, so they knew that they was gonna say that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where else than Snoop?
Starting point is 00:03:53 You think Snoop? I think that was Dr. Dre was reading, but I don't think Snoop was reading a lot. Snoop like freestyled a lot of his. Snoop went off the prompter at first. And then he went back to the prompter, so. It was a good show. I mean, Lauren is out there, so we'll ask Lauren if she has any details.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I know she was backstage. But it was a great show. Salute to BET. Drop a bomb for BET. I love to watch all the performances. I like seeing everybody show up for the BET Awards. Yeah, that's what I was wanting. I loved it.
Starting point is 00:04:16 There was only like one time where they was like, this person wasn't here, and that was Sizzle. But then Sizzle ended up showing up later. Yeah, it was probably like, it was late. It was probably running late. Everything was running behind. But I thought it was really, reallyling ended up showing up late. Yeah, it was probably like she was late It was probably running late everything everything was running behind But I thought it was really really dope um and let us see let us see did so good her pipes man Like singing live I never heard her sing live
Starting point is 00:04:34 I'm like damn she had the low key the best performance of the night when it comes to like singing like what? I ain't gonna fret she did with Jennifer Hudson killed it Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like what? I ain't gon' fret. She did, but Jennifer Hudson killed it. Jennifer Hudson killed it. She killed it on the Jamie Foxx tribute. It wasn't a full performance, yeah, she did.
Starting point is 00:04:47 It was great. It was great. There was a lot of icons that they like meshed in together, being honored in one night. I felt like Ryan Carey, Snoop Dogg, Jamie Foxx, Kirk Franklin. They four big people that you try to cram in one show. Their tribute should have been a little longer, but I mean everybody showed up. It was a lot of tributes.
Starting point is 00:05:08 They had a lot of Icon Awards. I'm not mad at that though. I'm not mad at the tributes. For one thing, I feel like Jamie Foxx could have been a little bit more drawn out. This man's like... When you see all the people that was dead, that they kept going to, that got their flowers
Starting point is 00:05:22 after they passed, I was happy to see the tributes. Cause everybody that got their tribute last night and their Icon Award deserved it. So it was good to see it. I get what Jess is saying, if you do just a little bit less then you can do longer performances. That's all, like you can still do the awards, just maybe shorten it to three.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I think they did what, four? Four, four big Icons. Yeah, four. So if you do four, cut the filler of the rest of the stuff. Yeah. Definitely. I was disappointed I? Cut to the rest of the stuff. Yeah. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I was disappointed I didn't see my full 106 & Parks set up. Listen, I felt like we got gypped, man. We didn't see AJ was a day. I would have loved to see AJ and Free out. I'd have loved to see TJ and Terrence and Roxy. And just more, and I saw them, but we saw little glimpses of them and I felt like it should have been more around 106 & Parks. They could have had a cypher with battle Raps they could have had like they could have
Starting point is 00:06:07 showed some new music videos and then like you know I don't know. The whole show should have been 106 and Pup. Yes it should have been hosted. The whole show should have been formatted like 106 and Pup. The different eras of 106 and Pup. Yeah then AJ said he was on a flight he couldn't make it AJ you was on press talk. Y'all was on a press talk you know where you had to be. And my baby Roxy was there.
Starting point is 00:06:23 I know where Roxy was at. I talked to Roxy yesterday. I'll tell y'all later on. Okay. But it was all together. Overall it was great. I loved Tyler Perry's speech. Yes, Tyler Perry's speech was dope.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Snoop's speech was dope too. Snoop's speech was really, really, really dope. Mariah Carey looked good as hell. Why does she always walk like that? Like her feet hurt. She looks heavily medicated. She's a diva. Yes, absolutely. But I think she was the most down she always walk like that? Like her feet hurt. Like she looks heavily medicated. She's a diva. Yes, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:06:46 But I think she was the most down to earth that we've ever seen her last night. I honestly really do. I felt like she was great. Okay, all right. We'll talk more during the show if you see the BET Awards. Now Amanda Serrano will be joining us this morning.
Starting point is 00:06:59 She is a boxer. She's a boxer champion in, I think across seven divisions. Seven different weight classes. Yeah, seven different weight classes. So we're gonna talk to her. Only female boxer that will achieve that feat. Yeah, so we're gonna talk to her She has a fight July 11th at Madison Square Garden. She's Puerto Rican She's from Brooklyn and we'll chop it up with her in a little bit. All right, let's get the show cracking We got front page news Morgan to be joining us. Don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning Everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. Shall I mean the guy we are the breakfast club? Let's get in some front page news
Starting point is 00:07:28 What's up Morgan? Hey, hey happy Tuesday. How we feeling? That's black and how are you? How are you? I'm doing well. I love to hear it Okay, y'all so first on front page two tensions continue to rise in Los Angeles, California following a fourth day of anti-ice demonstrations yesterday. Another 2,000 California National Guard troops have been tasked with keeping peace in Los Angeles. California Governor Gavin Newsom says only 300 of the first 2,000 have actually been deployed. He said the rest are sitting unused in federal buildings without orders.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Also about 700 Marines have since been activated to respond to civil unrest as well in LA. The Marines are also stationed in 29 Palms with a mission to protect federal buildings and agents who are being met with continued protests amid immigration raids. Now California Governor Gavin Newsom says President Trump should not be deploying Marines on American soil, calling it un-American. Meanwhile President Trump believes residents of LA should be thanking him for sending the National Guard, as his administration put it, to keep the public safe. Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments.
Starting point is 00:08:34 I think his primary crime is running for governor because he's done such a bad job. It's lucky for the people in Los Angeles and in California that we did what we did. We got it just in time. So yesterday a reporter asked Trump if borders are Tom's home in wood should arrest California Governor Gavin Newsom over the anti ice demonstrations in LA. Now Trump said he would if he were Tom and he thinks that would be great.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Now Newsom responded to that. Those comments saying that Trump's comments are a sign of authoritarianism and he thinks that would be great. Now Newsom responded to that those comments saying that Trump's comments are a sign of authoritarianism and he announced a lawsuit against the White House for federalizing the California National Guard which I'll get into later. Trump is also dismissing the lawsuit saying he had no choice noting cars were burning and people were rioting. Now meanwhile US Attorney General Pam Bond, she says federal authorities will prosecute protesters who commit crimes. Now, Pondi said, the person who allegedly threw rocks at federal law enforcement vehicles during the protest has been identified and authorities have conducted a search warrant
Starting point is 00:09:36 on their home. She added a message for protesters who are anything less than peaceful. Let's take a listen to US Attorney General, Pam Bondi. You can run, you can't hide. We are coming after you federally. If you assault a police officer, if you rob a store, if you loot, if you spit on a police officer, we're coming after you.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Why they didn't have that same energy for the January 6th insurrectionist that assaulted law enforcement officers. And then you know, you said something else Morgan, you said they sent the National Guards to keep the peace. Like do you send National Guards to keep peace? I guess I'm just trying to figure out what is the National Guard doing that local law enforcement can't do?
Starting point is 00:10:18 Like people throwing rocks and you send the National Guard in? But I guess they're saying the local departments can't do it because obviously they're still doing it. They're still protesting, They're still throwing rocks and bricks and it was like up on a bridge and they had cars and they were like where they could have killed whoever was in them cars. Local enforcement. So that is to be determined by local law enforcement and the governor. You know, that's something that the governor is supposed to decide in that if federal agents or the Trump administration decides to bring in the National Guard or deploy the National Guard, then they would do so in tandem with local law enforcement. And that seems to not be the case right now.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Local law enforcement is kind of like standing idly by not so much. Yeah, they're not necessarily helping. They don't know they don't have any orders in regards to this. This is just a federal takeover. Yeah, because it's federal overreach because the governor's the governor's supposed to say, Hey, we need the National Guard. Absolutely. Absolutely. I think what he was trying to do is make sure it doesn't get out of hand. Make sure they stop it before it goes any further because the fact that there is no respect for law enforcement out there. I mean, the way that they're throwing bricks
Starting point is 00:11:30 at cars driving by and the way they're burning things down, there's no respect and I think he's trying to jump in front of it before it happened because you can tell they have no respect. There's no peaceful protest in a lot of those places. There's a lot of places where they are peaceful protesting but there's a lot where there's no respect for law. I think the national guard escalates it to a different level. That's it, I was where they are peaceful protesting, but there's a lot where it is. It is no respect for me. I think the National Guard escalated to a different level.
Starting point is 00:11:47 That's it. I was going to say to your point. Yeah, that's what a lot of local authorities, including Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is pretty much saying. Charlemagne is that it doesn't help to bring in the National Guard. It actually escalates the situation, but we'll continue to talk about it in the seven o'clock hour because there's so much to cover regarding the situation. So stick around
Starting point is 00:12:05 Yeah, and on both sides. I think they've been is this they're going too far I don't know if you want to see that one video where the officer shot the uh the actual a the reporter Reporting like live like I guess he's an Australian reporter or some from overseas and she's reporting She's sitting there and you see the police officer or whoever it was at the time point his gun at her and shoot her. Live on camera. But it was hilarious last night on the Daily Show when they added that little sound effect and it was like bang! Hilarious. Really? I mean I felt so bad.
Starting point is 00:12:38 And they showed it regular first but then John Stewart was like no I know I know when you had a sound effect to it and they put that little bang on it. Oh, hilarious. Oh man. Y'all are stupid. And she was screaming, ah! You hear that scream that you always do? Ah!

What
Starting point is 00:17:03 up? Get it off your chest, Moe. What's up, Breakfast Club? Good morning, everybody. Good morning. Peace. I just want to tell y'all, I think the governor is doing an awful job over there. He should have stepped in sooner.
Starting point is 00:17:15 He's trying to have a measuring contest with the president. And then if he don't, the president don't step in. He's damned if he do and damned if he don't. So he might as well be damned if he do, because if he don't, we're going to be on him anyway. On top of that if you don't, we're gonna be on them anyway. On top of that, you got somebody who- But hold on real quick, I'm not disputing you, because I don't know, I don't think Gavin Newsom
Starting point is 00:17:33 does the best job in California either, but the protest just began on Friday. Like literally just Friday. Look at how violent it turned right away. Did it? Let's get out of here. Yeah, you're not seeing this. Let's get out of here.
Starting point is 00:17:43 It ain't a peaceful protest everywhere. It's peaceful protest in a lot of places, but let's get out of here in some, you're not seeing it. Let's get out of here. It ain't a peaceful protest everywhere. It's peaceful protest in a lot of places, but let's get out of here. So let me ask y'all a question. It's a peaceful protest, but the rioting, if nobody steps in and does nothing, then we're over here talking about, oh, we're burning ourselves down.
Starting point is 00:17:54 What are we doing? They should have intervened earlier. And then what? So let me ask you a question. We're burning all our communities down. So what's the point of spending so much money in law enforcement and already having the law enforcement militarized? Law enforcement got weapons and armor and all of that kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:12 If you spend hundreds of millions of dollars on law enforcement, how do they get overwhelmed so fast by protesters? To where you're sending in a National Guard? And did you even see the National Guard yesterday? Most of them were just sleeping because they had nothing to do. Did you all see that? Yes, they had a strategic point, right?
Starting point is 00:18:29 I don't know how they run that, but when you see videos of police officers being hurt, bleeding, and everything else, you got to do something. He's supposed to be in the office for his people. Those police officers, those local police officers, are also his people. Our police officers, those local police officers are also his people. Our communities that we are burning down are our people. We all know LA riots can tend to get out of control
Starting point is 00:18:54 real fast. So, step in. I mean, listen, if the LAPD was overwhelmed, I understand. They definitely were overwhelmed. I mean, you can see from a lot of stuff that they see. They were overwhelmed. Cops bleeding everywhere. Yeah, cops were hit with tear gas. I mean, they were overwhelmed. I mean you can see from Bleeding everywhere Your cops were hit with tear gas. I mean they were overwhelmed. They were they were they they needed some help that
Starting point is 00:19:10 Wasn't planned out correctly. I don't know if Senator National Guard was the correct thing to do, but they were definitely overwhelmed They needed some help something had to be done. They were overwhelmed in our community is the one being hurt Something had to be done. Thank you, brother So, I mean, you know What you do for Dominican Mother's Day, bro He just had You didn't do that. I was on a Puerto Rican day parade float, but I'm not Dominican nor my Puerto Rican So, I don't know but salute to all the Dominican moms out there. You just before the record bro
Starting point is 00:19:40 I'm kind of mad. You don't play much bro. Oh my goodness Deal of all did I say deal him old? I love you, my man. Peace, man. Keep your foot on they neck, Jeff. Already know, bro. All right. And I also wanna say, if the LAPD got overwhelmed that fast, then they need to get their budget cut, then.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Cause they got allocated over two billion dollars for the 2025-26 fiscal year. And that's for salary adjustments, technology upgrades, security services. That's a lot of money that the militarized police force to get overwhelmed that fast by protest get it off your chest 800 585-1051 when we come back we got the latest with lauren she's out in la for the bet awards and we'll talk to in a little bit it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club

So much history has been made on this stage tonight, which is why we are celebrating 25 years of BET of excellence tonight. It's also the 45th anniversary, man.

Starting point is 00:23:17 that was a big look for you. Yeah, Freestyle Friday, judge that. Camp Shane, one of America's longest running weight loss camps for kids, promised extraordinary results. Campers who began the summer in heavy bodies were often unrecognizable when they left. In a society obsessed with being thin, it seemed like a miracle solution. But behind Camp Shane's facade of happy, transformed children was a dark underworld
Starting point is 00:23:43 of sinister secrets. Kids were being pushed to their physical and emotional limits as the family that owned Shane turned a blind eye. Nothing about that camp was right. It was really actually like a horror movie. In this eight-episode series, we're unpacking and investigating stories of mistreatment and re-examining the culture of fatphobia that enabled a flawed system to continue for so long. You can listen to all episodes of Camp Shame one week early and totally ad-free on iHeart True Crime Plus. So don't wait.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Head to Apple Podcasts and subscribe today. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone, most of all his wife Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his, and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing.

It was just a great time. What a time. You know those were huge artists during the 106 and Park era, like the videos were big, right? Yes, on the countdown. Now I talked to Shanti backstage and I asked her about that about just you know the nostalgia of it because that's what it felt like last night there
Starting point is 00:27:29 everybody showed up like it felt like elegance last night people were excited to be there with so many big names in the building but she said one of the things she's been remembering a lot of is just when you walk out the doors of 106 and Park and you feel the crowd go crazy because you feel so much love and that's what last night felt like to her she said. Now in closing up on the 106 and Park tribute all the hosts came out and they did their thank yous. I want to note that Roxy and AJ were missing notably from- Those are two big misses by the way. Yeah that was right. Because let's be clear if we're being honest there's two sets of hosts that when you think 106 and Park you think about.
Starting point is 00:28:05 And that's AJ and Free and Terrence and Roxy. That's it. Very much so. That's the ones we remember. And they were on the press tour. They came up here together. So we're expecting to see them. I mean, I didn't see AJ running around this weekend,
Starting point is 00:28:16 but I saw Roxy. I went to the 106 and Park Day party in celebration for this and I saw Roxy. So people were asking where, even backstage, you were like, wait, where is AJ? Where is Roxy? Well, I spoke to Roxy yesterday. Roxy she's in France working like she wanted to be there she tried to be there but you know sometimes you got those gigs those opportunities you can't change and they clash with other things
Starting point is 00:28:35 and you got to make a choice I mean you'll see what the gig is real soon because it is it is a really big gig and you know I understand that because you know last night was a great moment but that's the past you still got to think about your now and your future. I get it. And she was running around all weekend I will say that she was out and about. And the BG awards came early this year it's always usually at the end of the month. Yes that is true as well too. It's never like June what was June 9th? It was yesterday the 9th? It's usually like June 20th. I will say the only person that was missing during the 106 and Park performances was Mario,
Starting point is 00:29:07 to me, Mario from Baltimore. That was very much his era, you know what I mean, as well. And he performed the beats he experienced, like before the show, but I think he should have been on that stage singing, you say he's just a friend, like, yo, like that, Mario was missing in action during the show. One thing Baltimore gonna do is represent
Starting point is 00:29:24 for Baltimore for the Baltimore game. They thing Baltimore gonna do is represent for Baltimore. They arrive for Baltimore. Man, you already know. Period. They be doing the show not the whole show. Baltimore Twitter must have been having that conversation. Crazy. Where is Mario?
Starting point is 00:29:34 What's up? Did they see where AJ was? I seen him post something that said he was on a flight but that's all I heard. Yeah same. But they should have planned that out man. They all should have been on that stage. To me. Well and in rap one thing I will say
Starting point is 00:29:45 when Free popped up on that screen backstage cast and crew went crazy because I think we were all just excited to see her on stage again and they gave a wrap up thank you to a ton of people and we talked about this yesterday they honored uh Mr. Steven Hill let's take a listen. I do want to thank each and every one of you that tuned in and welcomed us into your homes on a daily basis Tuning into 106 and Park. Thank you so much BT and who else do we have to think free? Um, I think that we wouldn't all be here right now celebrating one of six apart We got to give a round of applause to Steven here. I don't know where you are Would there be no one on Six and Park without you? Steven!
Starting point is 00:30:24 Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven!
Starting point is 00:30:32 Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven!
Starting point is 00:30:40 Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Steven! Thank you guys. All you and the staff and the executives that held us down and made sure that their artists came through, we just really want to thank you and everybody out in the street that hugs us, yells at us, does all kind of love and for y'all, like thank y'all. They could have formatted the whole show like 106 and Park last night.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Yeah, I thought that that's what they were going to do, but instead of making it just like a part of the show, I thought those hosts were going to actually host the full show like 106 and Park. They could have formatted the whole show. The performers could have took the place of the videos. Like, you know, you have a little small conversation with the guests, like especially during the Icon Award part. Could have been like some cyphers going on,
Starting point is 00:31:13 you know, Bow Wow could have hosted a little bit of it cause that was Mr. 106 and Pug, you know what I mean? So I think I'd much rather hear, I'd much rather hear like small conversations than these artist speeches. Yeah. Cause boy, they be dragging them speeches. What? small conversations than these other speeches. Yeah. Because boy, they be dragging them speeches. What?
Starting point is 00:31:28 It was a lot of speeches last night. Everybody showed up last night. Everybody did. Some of those speeches were warranted though. I'd love to hear Snoop's speech last night. Jamie Foxx comes as well. Jamie Foxx needed it. I would have liked to hear Jamie Foxx in conversation.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Yeah. That would have been great too. I would have liked to hear somebody actually asking Jamie Foxx questions. I think it was so overwhelming overwhelming for him in that moment because everything that he's been through We're gonna bring back in a second hour because there is a lot more to last night to be two words Jamie Foxx will talk about that as well And rapping I did want to mention envy you mentioned this AJ Callaway did post on his Instagram that he was on a flight He tried to make it but it didn't work and he sends much love to his BT family I did want to mention, Envy, you mentioned this. AJ Calloway did post on his Instagram that he was on a flight.
Starting point is 00:32:05 He tried to make it, but it didn't work. And he sends much love to his BET family. And he says he'll do something again when they can all make it out and hopefully let everybody know to join up, join them when they do get back together again. So, yes. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:18 And salute to DC Young Fly, man. What? DC Young Fly killed it. He killed it. My friend, man, he ate them since. I always saw DC once. He's done it like three times. Three different suits. Four times, yeah. Yeah, see, but see, yeah. He killed it. My friend, man, he ate them suits up. I only saw DC once. He was there only like three times. It was four times. Yeah, see, he presented here.
Starting point is 00:32:26 He had three different outfits on, three different tuxes on. He killed it last night. He must have had DC on the late shift then, because I saw him once when he... He was all throughout the show. He was in the beginning, he was in the middle, and he was in the end.
Starting point is 00:32:38 In the pre-show. Yeah, he killed it. Yep, pretty sure. All right, when we come back, we got front page news, and then boxer Amanda Serrano will be joining us. So don't go anywhere, it's The Breakfast Club. All right. When we come back, we got front page news and inboxer Amanda Serrano will be joining us. Don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ NV Jess Hilarious. Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back to some front page news and
Starting point is 00:32:55 some quick sports. Tomorrow is game three. OKC versus the Paces at 830 PM. They're scratching this out, man. They need to get it over with, man. We don't need two days in between. They usually give you two days between when you go from the east to west. Let's get this over with. Jesus. Relax a little bit. Ain't nobody watching these games no way. Yo shut up. It's true. Well the conversation continues from the first hour about the anti-ice protests that are underway in Los Angeles, California. Now the top cop in LA
Starting point is 00:33:25 says the Marines are not communicating with his department while about 700 Marines are headed to the city. LA police chief Jim McDonnell says he's not getting a formal notification. He says the lack of coordination is concerning and the chief says it presents a significant logistical and operations challenge for those charged with safeguarding the city. Now California Attorney General Rob Bonta says the state of California is going to sue President Trump and his administration for deploying hundreds of National Guard members to L.A. calling the move unlawful. Now Bonta said it requires the governor's consent to activate the National Guard and Newsom didn't call for it. Let's take a listen to California attorney general, Rob Bonta.
Starting point is 00:34:06 The governor of California knows how to call in the National Guard if and when it's needed. He did it with the LA fires. He did it in the summer of 2020 with some of the protests in California. So this is something that is within governor Newsom's sovereignty. If local law enforcement did decide
Starting point is 00:34:21 they needed further support, the first rational step would be to call upon other nearby agencies. Call in mutual aid. So Bonta goes on to say that this actually diverts resources that are needed for the wildfire season and it escalates tension in the city. Now he goes on to say the law used to activate the troops had only been invoked once before in modern history in the 1970s and this is the first deployment without a governor's consent since 1965. Now the White House justifies the action by citing lawlessness in LA. Governor Newsom claims there's no need for the National Guard and accused Trump of wanting a spectacle. Meanwhile Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass
Starting point is 00:35:02 says her city is being used for an experiment as the federal government brings in the National Guard and Marines to counter immigration protests. Now Bass spoke on Monday night saying it makes her feel like this is a test for what happens when the federal government moves in and takes authority away from the state and from local government. Now she pushed back against comments describing the city as being invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals, calling it a despicable description. Let's take a listen to LA Mayor Karen Bass's comments. This kind of atmosphere, it creates a chaos in our city.
Starting point is 00:35:37 People not sure whether they should go outside, whether they need to stay inside. We did not need this. The population of all of Los Angeles needs to know that we will stand with them. We're not going to allow our city to be divided and picked apart. So the LA has LAPD has announced that the city is going on tactical alert, meaning officers can be kept on past their shift in time and transferred between divisions. The demonstrations of course started on Friday in response to immigration raids that were happening around the city. And bringing things home to you guys up there in New York. Well, Mayor Eric Adams and the NYPD
Starting point is 00:36:12 Commissioner, Jessica Tisch, she addressed New York City on Monday evening, or he addressed they both addressed New York City on Monday evening following these protests that are of course happening in L. A. Now, Mayor Adams says what's happening in L. A. Will not happen in New York. Let's take a listen to his comments. The escalation of protests in Los Angeles over the last couple of days is unacceptable. It would not be tolerated if attempted in our city. There was a bunch of anti ice protests yesterday in New York, a bunch of large crowds. That's all it takes is, you know, you starting to see this
Starting point is 00:36:44 stuff and then, you know, people are gonna start galvanizing and organizing in their own cities. But, you know, as you heard from the audio, New York Mayor Eric Adams had a message for New Yorkers. Now NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch goes on to say that, while they encourage peaceful protest, the NYPD will have no tolerance for violence
Starting point is 00:37:02 or blocking of public spaces. Their comments, of course, comes just, it came hours after two dozen protesters were arrested after occupying Trump Tower in Midtown. So yeah, it does appear that this is, this is something that, like I said, it impacts everybody from us here, from the case with Kilmar Abrego Garcia to LA to you guys in New York. I mean, immigrants are all over this country and that's essentially what built this country, especially the original immigrants, the backs of slaves, but I won't get too much into that. But yeah, this is
Starting point is 00:37:34 something that impacts a lot of people and I will continue to keep you guys posted as these stories develop. And even in LA it's interesting, right? Because I was reading out, Gavin Newsom was saying Trump sent, deployed 2,000 troops to LA. Right? He's deploying another 2000 troops to LA. But he was like the first 2000 were given no food, no water, and only 300 have been deployed. The rest are just sitting in a federal building without orders. So what's the point? That's right. I'm not sure. But I guarantee that these people are racking up a coin on their check and that's not wasteful or fraudulent or abusive.
Starting point is 00:38:09 And then they said that they're just there to protect federal buildings. That's the only reason that they were sent in just to protect federal buildings. And supposedly the public and of course, public safety as well. But yes, those are that's that have been their missions to protect public safety and federal buildings and agents who are being met with continued protests amid the immigration raids. Yep. So to your point, yes, only three have 300 of the first 2000 have actually been deployed with more on the way.
Starting point is 00:38:36 So if you guys are in the LA area, you know, just continue to be safe and stay vigilant, you know, especially you, Lauren. So we want to make sure that you guys are safe out there. And dang girl let me just tell you your fresh face is giving you got no makeup on but you look so good today Morgan so good. Thank you.

She's a seven time champion across seven different weight classes and we're going to talk to her next. don't go anywhere It's the breakfast club. Good morning
Starting point is 00:39:27 Everybody is DJ envy just hilarious. I mean the guy we are the breakfast club. We got our brother awkward us this morning Hey, we got a special guest in the building the champ is here. I'm on this around. Welcome. How you feeling? I'm feeling great feeling great a little too early for me, but for you guys I'll sacrifice Yesterday yes. Yes, it was amazing. You was at the parade yesterday. Yes, yes. It was amazing. I was there in 2019. I got honored as one of my Guinness Book of World Records for 7th Division, and it was
Starting point is 00:39:55 like a complete different parade this time. Everyone knew who I was. Of course. People screamed my name. It just felt so welcoming and so awesome. Yeah, you've won, like you just said, titles in seven different weight classes. Are you chasing greatness?
Starting point is 00:40:10 Are you chasing something deeper? I'm chasing legacy, and I believe I've accomplished that already. I'm the first Puerto Rican to become on the sputum, male or female, and first seven division world champion. So now it's just going other stuff, making money and opening the doors and continuing to open the doors for women
Starting point is 00:40:32 in the sport. He mentioned seven divisions. People don't realize how difficult that is. The only fighter that has done more is Manny Packer. We just talked about him has done eight divisions. That's what's in the, in the books. books, right? So what she's done is like, it's insane, right? But there's another division that you haven't fought in, 147, right? And I just want to throw that out there
Starting point is 00:40:55 because I know that Clarissa is a lot bigger. She's fighting heavyweight, 154, 160, but she's a big name in the sport. And for some reason, you girls were cool, but it's like tension. Like you put out a tweet that I actually respect your tweet like because it's kind of like you were fed up of her attacking MVP your promoter it is that a pipe dream if it ever came if she came down 147 could that fight ever happen? What's your natural weight first? I'm the champion, currently I'm the featherweight champion which is 126 pounds. 20 pounds, Jesus! I am fighting for the title at 140 with
Starting point is 00:41:28 Katie Taylor. Okay. But respectfully I respect Clarissa what she's done in the sport. I respect her as an athlete, her accomplishments, but I came here today to talk about July 11th, to talk about me, to talk about the girls that are making history at Madison Square Garden on Netflix. So yeah. She said something, she said that the Manny 8 is questionable. Why? Because he won in two divisions. They weren't world titles. They were like regional titles. All my divisions was world titles. Gotcha. I need to ask, you know, when gaining that much weight, right? When you're naturally 126 and you have to gain 20 pounds,
Starting point is 00:42:06 how does that affect you? Affect your speed, affect your strength, and affect your mental? It does, it does affect you. People don't realize it. It's harder for me to go up in weight than to make the lower weight, because I walk around 134, 135,
Starting point is 00:42:19 so it's easy for me to drop 10 pounds. But when I'm going up, a lot of these girls, they can withhold my power. They lot of these girls, they can withhold my power. They can, you know, they can, you know, the power is, I still have power at that weight, but it's just a lot easier for them to withhold it. And it's, it's, I have to be constantly eating, my trainer, my sister, everyone's like forcing me, you have to eat, you have to eat. You have to eat healthy. It's not like you're eating burgers.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Yeah, but I'm like, I'm not, I'm not hungry. have to eat healthy. It's not like you Hungry I just finished training. I'm not hungry and they're like no you have to eat because I can lose weight really really fast I refuse believe you ate healthy yesterday after Fried fish sandwich surprising not Puerto Rican food. It was just, it was crazy. It was crazy. Well, you're, you're fighting, speaking of July 11th, you are fighting Kasey Taylor. You already fought her twice. Yes.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Now, what are you doing differently this fight? Yeah, definitely. I brought in new people for the camp. I have a nutrition coach now, Sydney Miller. She's been helping me on feeding me good food. I have a Running coach his name is Spencer. He's the one who helped eat the turn of that and all his fights So that's been a great help for me. I hire another Assistant coach that's helping me keep my distance helping me like with my head movement and boxing and stuff like
Starting point is 00:43:45 that. But listen, me and Katie had 20 great rounds together. We bring great fights, we show the fans that we can fight, and this fight is going to be no different. We had headlining Madison Square Garden on an all-girl card, and the good thing is that all these girls are coming to fight. So we don't know who's going gonna be the fight of the night so all of us are stepping our game up I'm stepping my game up I need this win on paper I
Starting point is 00:44:12 believe I won both fights but this one is different because I need the judges to see that that I won this fight I need this fight on paper so yeah we're working a little different smarter and I believe this the third time's a charm And you know the fact that they're fighting a trilogy Even though Katie got both decisions speaks to like how close those fights were and how many people felt you even Won both of those fight What fight you think was close out of the first two the first one the first one was a good fight My coach told me after the fight. He I think his 96-94 is pretty close. So when the first judge said
Starting point is 00:44:49 that he looked at me and he said you see I got it. But the second one I think was pretty clear that I won. I landed a hundred and seven more punches on Katie Taylor. People say that I get hit a lot. Listen a hundred and seven punches that's a lot Katie Taylor. And people say that I get hit a lot. Listen, 107 punches, that's a lot of punches. And you did it in the sixth round. You heard her? I think it was. The first one was the fifth.
Starting point is 00:45:11 The second one was the first. And a couple of rounds. Like, I've heard Katie every fight, both fights I've heard. She's never really hurt me other than the headbutts. But you know, I respect Katie as a fighter. She's a great fighter, a great champion. And she's going to come to fight. She's a great fighter great champion and she's gonna come to fight She needs this win to be like convincingly
Starting point is 00:45:29 She she needs the fans to say okay Katie won this fight and listen, I'm a professional I'm a champion if Katie was to beat me like clearly I would say Pass off to Katie Katie. You're a great champion a great fighter You beat me, but I just don't feel it the fans don don't feel it. My team doesn't feel it, doesn't see it. So I'm like, ah, this one is like the last hurrah. How do you feel confidence in the judges during that now, right? Because you think you lost, you think you won both of them, you feel like you were cheated. So how do you still have that confidence in the system and the judges? Because you, the punches show.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Yeah, I know. That's the only thing that I'm like we need we need better judges and hopefully the team gets that work before I step into that ring because I feel like those two fights it was like four against one or five against one because the judges Katie and and the referee the referee wasn't on my side the last fight as well so I just as well. So I just want a fair fight. I just want me and Katie to fight and the winner, you know, takes it all. I mean, it's just... How do you fix the politics of boxing though? Because, I mean, you can clearly watch those fights until boxing politics came
Starting point is 00:46:36 into play. So how do you fix that? Yeah, and it's not just my fight, you know. You see it every day, every time there's a fight. I mean, that I don't know. I don't know if the judges are influenced by the crowd or the influence by the promoters or it's just really hard. I don't know what they're thinking, what they're seeing. I don't know if they need to watch it in a screen because I watch fights front row and it's really hard. It's so hard to see a good fight. Sometimes the referee gets in the way. I just don't know what they're seeing. I've seen fights where the judges have to be moving around to actually see the action.
Starting point is 00:47:12 And then if the person's back is against that one judge, you don't know what's happening. So I don't know if maybe a screen would be better. I have no idea. We're still kicking it with boxer Amanda Serrano. Her fight is July 11th in Madison Square Garden I want to go back to the second fight. What round was it that you got the cut again? I think it was the fourth. The fourth. The fourth. What is it?
Starting point is 00:47:35 So you fought six rounds with blood in your eye How do you avoid those headbutts like going into the third fight? Like is there a strategy where we know what Katie does? Is there something you're going to do to kind of avoid getting hit with the head again? Yeah, I'll maintain it out of distance. Definitely because once I hurt her, I know she's going to come in and try to hold me and try to grab me and then lose her head. I mean, she's very good at using her head.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I mean, not taking anything away from Katie. She's a great champion. She's very, very skillful fighter. But you know, I think what I've got hurt the most was with the head and the second headbutt was so painful. Like people don't know the first one was like, okay, whatever. But the second one, it was a very open wound, and it hit the bone. And I was like, I saw black for a second. I was like what is going on? That's I was just so I was pissed off I was like, oh my god, and then there was no help with the referee
Starting point is 00:48:32 The referee wasn't really warning her with the head but but listen this happens in in the sport of boxing and it's just Onto the next one. How much does the fight? I'm sorry. You did say third time is a drama I'm with you But are you prepared for it to go the other way? What would it mean for you to win, I mean, to lose third time to K.D. Say? It would suck. I'm like, thank God, three times.
Starting point is 00:48:54 I mean, but I'm not thinking about that. I'm not putting that into the universe. I'm not manifesting a win like I always do. But like I said, if she wins the way she's supposed to win then I'm gonna be like listen Okay, she got it, but I'm just hoping that The judges are watching the fight in different Well, you and Katie had the best fight on that card because Jake Paul and Tyson suck, right? But when I think about that fight, I think about how bloody it was like it looked like mortal combat
Starting point is 00:49:24 How much does a how much does that take out of you? Well it takes a lot of you know honestly knowing that you have this cut I'm just blessed that I have a great a great corner my cut man was amazing I did not know how big the cut was until I saw it in the monitor and the monitor you can use it wasn't that bad when I went to the back to get stitched up, I was like, oh my God. I brought a tear to my eye because I thought about my family back home watching it on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:49:52 I was like, oh, because I know it looks a lot worse on TV. So, but it takes a lot, all that blood. And then it wasn't just that one headbutt. It just kept happening and her rubbing her head on it. You definitely can feel it. I believe if I did lose a round it was the round after the cut because I was just like probably still in pain but that didn't stop me you saw you saw the heart I had in there I was like let's go let's keep fighting and but it can take a lot of you. Yeah there's been men with smaller cuts that
Starting point is 00:50:24 can continue and quit before her so Jake Paul has signed so many women obviously there's an all girls card He's done a lot for women's boxing do you feel like you are kind of the reason? Because you know what he's done with your career and and how successful you've been that's why women are saying I want to go there Look what he look look what a man has been able to do. Listen, Jake Paul and Nekisa Badarian, MVP have changed my life completely. They have changed the sport of female boxing
Starting point is 00:50:53 and I am super proud to be part of them. And yes, yes, I believe that these women, in the beginning, a lot of people had a lot of stuff to say about Jake Paul. And I took that chance to say about Jake and Nekisa. And I took that chance to be with Jake Paul because when I met Jake Paul and Nekisa, they told me where they wanted to go. They asked me how much I was getting paid, what you want to do in this sport, and whatever.
Starting point is 00:51:17 They made sure the first card that I was co-made he said he said I want the whole card to make the most money that they made so he paid me the most money I got paid before that how much have you what was your biggest payday before not definitely not seven figures way less than that you know I got paid four thousand dollars for world title fights I got paid four thousand four thousand dollars for tying up with Miguel Cotto becoming a four division world champion. How can your team even ask for a percentage of that? I'm not giving nobody a percentage
Starting point is 00:51:55 of that. Yeah, exactly. It's actually fees and all that stuff. It's been a journey. I got paid peanuts like sometimes I got paid Nothing just just to fight just to stay to maintain But yeah, that's the difference with Jake Paul and these women now that they see that we're making Me and Katie making millions or just making noise and my fan base how much it grew being under Jake Paul There now they want to come along But But I guess they had to see what he really wanted to do with female boxing and he proved it. He proved it with me and now he's proving it. Come July 11th, the first in history at MSG on Netflix. I am super proud to be part of
Starting point is 00:52:41 that. And like I said before, this is going be a car you don't wanna miss because we have two on the spirit of championship, three unified champions, championships, and you just don't know who's gonna be the fighter of the night. Now you recently pushed for 12 three minute rounds of women's boxing, pushed for that hard. Why so much?
Starting point is 00:53:00 Because we talk about equality in the sport of female boxing. And one way to do it is is To fight the same time the men fight, you know, we fight So some men complain that oh, well, they fight less than us Why you want to get paid just like us so I believe it's one step we want equality So we have to fight for what we believe for what we want and I I'm a big advocate for the 12-3 Katie she said
Starting point is 00:53:29 The rematch she said she shook my hand and said that we can if we fight again We can do it and she neglect that promise So I mean we were fighting 10-2, but I will prefer 12-3 because I believe if I had that extra minute I can definitely hurt her and finish her But I think a lot of us women wouldn't want that because we have a lot more time To show our skills. I believe that the 10-2 is like a sprint for women's boxing and then the 12-3 is like a little jog and marathon We can showcase more of our skills and have more time to get these knockouts.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Rumor has it you're the reason why Netflix wanted to stay in boxing after the first fight in Texas like how entertaining your fight was opposed to the others. I mean look, you know, Jake Paul and Mike, they were what they were, right? It was a unique type of fight. But Netflix said no, we need to see that again. And that's why you fight on Netflix. Is true is this some truth to that well. I mean the birdie said No, yeah, I mean, that's what I want to do every time My trainer Jordan Maldonado. He told me whenever you have
Starting point is 00:54:38 An opportunity you seize that opportunity you go out there And you do whatever you have to do to make sure that people tune in, people watch you, people want you. And I knew that fight, I knew the fight with Katie Taylor was gonna be a great fight. So I said, no matter what I do, I have to just give it my all that night.
Starting point is 00:54:56 And I did, and look, now Netflix believed in me and Katie so much that they gave us our own card with all women. So they believe in us women and that's something that really touches me and that really gets me excited because now we have these big networks, big stadiums, big people, big sponsors that are giving their money, giving their time to promote and to just give us the spotlight and I'm excited. And we're talking to boxer Amanda Serrano. Her fight is July 11th in Madison Square Garden.
Starting point is 00:55:30 You won seven divisions. This is obviously a big money fight, a big profile fight. But if you do get the victory finally with Katie, what's the next challenge? I know people are talking about Alicia Baumgarner. She's with MVP now. She's around your weight class. What's the next big challenge for Amanda? You know what the world wants. No honestly right now I'm
Starting point is 00:55:51 just concentrating, fully concentrating on Katie Taylor. That's the one thing that's on my mind, my goal, just to go out there and finally get this win. That's a big enough challenge for me right now, this moment, this second, this whole couple of weeks leading up to the fight. And then after that, who knows? Who knows what the world holds for me? The team knows. And I mean, they will go back and we'll figure it out. When you, when you retire, what do you want little Puerto Rican girls to say?
Starting point is 00:56:17 When they, when they met you? Camp Shane, one of America's longest running weight loss camps for kids, promised extraordinary results. Campers who began the summer in heavy bodies were often unrecognizable when they left. In a society obsessed with being thin, it seemed like a miracle solution. But behind Camp Shane's facade of happy, transformed children was a dark underworld of sinister secrets. Kids were being pushed to their physical and emotional limits as the family that owned
Starting point is 00:56:50 Shane turned a blind eye. Nothing about that camp was right. It was really actually like a horror movie.

I need a little girl or boy who believes in themselves
Starting point is 01:00:21 and wanna do something. Just you have to go out there and give it your all. You know, greatness requires sacrifice. I sacrificed my whole life to this sport and I'm going to continue to work for them and just believe in yourself. Surround yourself with positive people, go out there and give it your all. That's all I can ask. And I always tell the young girls, they say, oh, I want to be like you.
Starting point is 01:00:42 And I tell them, don't be like me. Be better than me. And that's what I want to push them for. Just always to be better than, than me. And that's what I do. I always want to be better than I was yesterday or the, or the fight before. And that's all you have to do. You're going to have Bad Bunny or, uh, Johnson Hernandez. Which one?
Starting point is 01:01:01 There's no David to Puerto Rico stars. Bad Bunny has a concert the same. his first concert in Puerto Rico is the night of the fight American princess Katie Taylor chapter closed after this third fight is that you don't I think I Think so, you know, honestly, I said that after the second after the first one I was like hot I am so tired of I love Katie Katie's my best friend I'm like, how can you love and hate someone? Press conference I've never seen y'all go at it the way you did.
Starting point is 01:01:46 She threw shots saying, you're delusional. And you came with the helmet. Was it the football helmet? You know, head gear. Head gear to the press conference, incinerating, I don't want to get hit with. So it's not as friendly as it was before that. That was just something that was just, you know, so good.
Starting point is 01:02:04 But then the day after, we to do like promo and photo shoot and we were just laughing and talking on like regular but yeah i think she's kind of probably tired of me too what if you beat her and she says i want two you want one let's do it again damn money talks but like honestly i'm like i told myself, I said, God, because it's been like, I'll talk to both of our names since she turned pro. We wasn't even in the same weight class at the same, well I was never at her same weight class. I'm like, who is Katie?
Starting point is 01:02:38 But Katie Taylor's brought eyes to the professional boxing world, which is good. But it's been like that for years. I was like, oh my God, I'm kind of tired of Katie Taylor. Well, we all know what the ultimate payday is. I don't know what that weight would be between you and Clarissa, but that would be the ultimate payday and the ultimate match of women's boxing.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Listen, it can be, but just like I said, I'm here promoting July 11th. And it's just. But would you go to 147? Forget about would you. You're almost there. For that fight. No, that's not true. I'm not almost there.
Starting point is 01:03:13 I can barely make 140 in this fight. You're a bralette. Yeah. That's good for eating, good eating and training hard. But yeah, I'm not a natural 140, a natural 135, I'm a natural 126. I walk around at 134, so like I said, going up in weight is really hard for me.
Starting point is 01:03:31 It's a lot harder for me than losing weight. And people look at me like I'm crazy, like oh my God, losing weight is hard. No, gaining weight for me is hard. Yeah, you're lean, you got fast metabolism. Yeah, because when I'm constantly working hard and training hard, I sweat so much and I lose weight so fast
Starting point is 01:03:45 So I'm like no like but you can make 147 if you had to no I know I can't Yeah, my power is still there but like I said 20 million I go to 147. You can whip his ass. How does it feel when you walk into gym sometime and know you better than 99% of the men? It boosts your confidence. Sometimes I walk around the street and I'm like only if they knew. We wish you the best of luck. You're fighting Madison Square Garden July 11th. All my Puerto Ricans but Equals go buy your tickets get out there and support. Yes I'm saying right now because I was on the floor last night.
Starting point is 01:04:34 We're making history. All women's card great fights.

It's the Breakfast Club Good morning ocean and Kanye might have been kissing while they was recording this you ever think about stuff like this No one of my favorite songs tough to the world is tough. Very tough crazy Very tough never thought about them to kiss and that means I just thought about I'm like damn Frank Ocean was killing that hook with penis on his breath probably. What? What?
Starting point is 01:05:08 So what did Frank Ocean do? We don't even know. What's going on? Alright, anyway. Happy Pride! Let's get into the latest with Lauren. Ah, Pride! Hey yo! Lauren be coming with straight facts. Tell her! Tell her!
Starting point is 01:05:19 She gets into somebody that knows somebody. She gets into details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything. She be having the latest on you. The largest. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes she have facts, sometimes she have details, sometimes she have a little bit of everything. But it's the latest.
Starting point is 01:05:36 On The Breakfast Club. Talk to me. All right, y'all, a bit more, a few more moments from the BET Awards last night. Dolce won Best Female Hip-Hop Artist and she took the stage in a powerful acceptance speech. Let's take a listen to Dolce. First of all, thank you so much BET. This is my first BET award. So this means a lot to me.
Starting point is 01:05:54 I grew up watching this, but as much as I'm honored by this award, I do want to address what's happening right now outside of the building. There are ruthless attacks that are creating fear and chaos. Trump is using military forces to stop a protest. And I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us. People are being swept up and torn from their families
Starting point is 01:06:26 and I feel it's my responsibility as an artist to use this moment to speak up for all oppressed people, for black people, for Latino people, for trans people, for the people in Gaza and I hope we stand together, my brothers and my sisters, against hate and we protest against it. That's a solid way to use your platform. I always feel like when stuff like that happen though,
Starting point is 01:06:47 like what's next after the artist does that, like you raise the awareness, but what's the call to action? And that had to be tough for BET producers because you have to either choose to ignore what's going on outside, you know, to put on your show. Or that's it. Yeah, and it's true. You either acknowledge it or ignore it. But they didn't acknowledge it, they just let whoever won acknowledge it, but they didn't necessarily's it. You either acknowledge it or ignore it.
Starting point is 01:07:05 But they didn't acknowledge it, they just let whoever won acknowledge it, but they didn't necessarily acknowledge it. Yeah, I'm saying like, but for that being the backdrop of LA, you would feel like, you know, that has to be a tough thing to decide to do in the room. Cause you either acknowledge it or ignore it.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Yeah, and it's hard to ignore it because when I tell you, all weekend, we've had to be moving around the process and like stores being broken, like so much different stuff here in LA. Well they definitely ignored it, because I mean they didn't do anything. I mean, but I just mean if you're here in person,
Starting point is 01:07:34 to your point, it should have bled over into the show, because in real life- Because everybody is not there and we don't know. Oh my God. You know what I'm saying? So it would have been great for us. In real life, you couldn't ignore it. Or do you use the show as an escape? I don't know, that's what I'm saying. That's why I said for it. In real life, you couldn't ignore it. Or do you use the show as an escape?
Starting point is 01:07:45 I don't know. That's what I'm saying. That's why I said it's a tough decision for producers. Yes, yes. Now also on the stage, the Ultimate Icon Award went down. Snoop Dogg, Mariah Carey, Jamie Foxx, Kirk Franklin received this award. Snoop Dogg's award was presented by Dr. Dre,
Starting point is 01:07:59 and the Ultimate Icon Award is where these artists are recognized for their decades of contributions in music, entertainment, advocacy, and community impact. Let's take a listen to the performance that happened by Snoop Dogg when receiving this award. Killed it. They sounded good too. Like they sounded the same. Backstage went crazy. A lot of the crew last night was from LA too. Like they went crazy last night, especially when Corrupted the stage and then Warrangia
Starting point is 01:08:27 the stage as well too. Even the dancers, I'm sorry, the dancers and the people were playing the instruments, like the band, everything. I love how they had the tuxedos mixed with the LA flannel, you know what I mean? Like it was lit. It was a whole thing for black people in the West Coast, man. Ain't no fun if the homies can't have none. It's all good till you hear that in the freak-off. It was lit. It was a whole thing for black people in the West Coast. It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none. Mm hmm.
Starting point is 01:08:46 So I'm good till you hear that in the freak off. It was built classy. You stupid. Jamie Foxx also was presented his icon. Oh, and Daz wasn't there. We didn't see Daz Dillinger. He didn't he didn't pull up Discorrupted. But go ahead.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Yes. Jamie Foxx, he received his impact award from Stevie Wonder. And he had all of us in tears while there. Let's take a listen to Jamie Foxx. I cannot even begin to express the love that I feel from everybody out there. I gotta be honest, when I saw the memoriam, I was like, man, it could have been me. But I don't know why I went through what I went through, but I know my second chance I'm not gonna turn down
Starting point is 01:09:28 I'm not gonna turn down. I have so much love to give I told him I said man Just just give me one more crack at this and I promise I said whatever reason you put this on me I promise I'm gonna do right when I when I did my special it was from a black people black people was one They said man, we got you not to say that white people can't pray either I know that sound weird, but y'all know what I'm saying It's like I know what you say is like you guys held me down And I don't want to make this whole speech about that, but you can't go through something like that and and not testify Amazing she gave the funniest part was when Stevie Wonder
Starting point is 01:10:05 came to handle the trophy, but Stevie was also like, all right, bro, I'm old. I can't be standing up here with a film now. Okay? Yes, so, and I love how he took it back. Remember some years back when at an awards show, Elton John gave a tribute to Stevie Wonder,
Starting point is 01:10:18 and he said, Stevie, Jamie Foxx had brought that moment back. I thought that was pretty dope too. I didn't know what that was. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was a long, long time ago, Stevie. I mean, Jamie Foxx had joked Elton John for that. Stevie was like, I love seeing you.
Starting point is 01:10:34 I love seeing you perform. I love seeing you. I love seeing the crowd. Stevie Wonder got a better vision than all of us. You best believe that. Stevie Foxx said, I had a joke, but I'm not going to say it. I believe Stevie alone. But Tyler Perry also. He still did the joke? He still did. Best believe that. I said I had a joke, but I'm not gonna say I believe you see it alone. But Tyler Perry also did it. I think he did. He did. It was so funny. Tyler Perry also hit the stage.
Starting point is 01:11:04 He brought out Let us see. But he called out the Hollywood studios in the heavy flex. Let's take a look. As he should. Yep. Black women have held me down and I appreciate you like you would not believe. You keep sending everything to number one, including straw this weekend. So thank you so much for that. And pretty soon you'll be sending divorce sisters to number one.

Don't miss this. They are removing our books from libraries. They are removing our stories and our history. They wanted to talk to Oklahoma and tried to burn down Black Wall Street.

I didn't get a chance they were bringing him out to introduce for that moment right there so they were just whisting him by but everyone I talked to backstage for BET last night Tyler Perry was like the biggest conversation and how much he does for people which we always hear but man in person people were just speaking his praises it was good to see.

Okay, Pastor Roy is the pastor of Cedars Creek Missionary Baptist Church in Alabama. Drop on the clues, bombs for Cedars Creed Missionary Baptist Church. Okay, salute to everybody who listens to us
Starting point is 01:15:28 on 103.1 to beat in Birmingham and 104.1 to beat in Montgomery, Alabama, respectfully. Now, what do you expect of your pastor? What is expected of a pastor? Most people expect their pastor to lead the church community. They expect their pastor to guide them spiritually, morally and in practical matters. This includes teaching the word of God,
Starting point is 01:15:50 providing pastorial care, leading worship and ensuring the church's wellbeing. Do we need the pastor to be a role model? The answer is yes. We need a pastor that reflects the teachings of the gospel. You must practice what you preach in order to be an impactful pastor okay Roy Powell has been a pastor for 30 years so clearly he has been that and you can tell he's been
Starting point is 01:16:11 that by the way his congregation is choosing to stick beside him even though he was charged with first-degree robbery what do you mean pastor Powell was charged with first-degree robbery uncle Shar? My pastor don't have to steal from nobody. We be having two, sometimes three collections on Sundays. The general offering, the special offering to build the church pool and a thank you offering for our pastor because he is a good man. He needs a new Hyundai Sonata. So my pastor don't got no reason to rob nobody.
Starting point is 01:16:40 Well, let's go to Fox 10 news for the report, please. Tonight, a well-known local pastor is out of jail, charged with first degree robbery. Investigators say 72 year old Roy Powell took a man's book bag at gun point yesterday morning on Mobile Street. The alleged victim, who doesn't want to be identified, tells me he was walking to the post office when Powell was walking towards him on the sidewalk and bumped into him. He said he was like using my way. I'm walking down the sidewalk. Watch where you're going. And we had words back and forth. The alleged victim tells me Powell left the scene after
Starting point is 01:17:17 they exchanged words. Minutes later, he tells me Powell came back in a truck and with a gun that he used to pistol whip the man in the head. According to this sign at the Cedar Street Missionary Baptist Church, Powell is a pastor here and court documents say he's been a pastor for 30 years. These court documents say Powell actually went back to the scene to apologize. He's charged with first degree robbery. What if heaven was hell and vice versa? It's too corrupt knowing that God gonna help me blow him up. That wasn't Pastor Roy, that was Pastor Troy.
Starting point is 01:17:53 And Pastor Troy was teaching that young man a lesson. See, this is what happens when you don't tithe, okay? Tithing is not a strict requirement for salvation, but it is seen as a test of faith, okay? Pastor say, you're gonna give up that 10% in my mind That's how this happened. Okay pastor power walking down the street They bump into each other pastor says you was in my way the devil got busy and made that young man Have a back-and-forth pastor power said I know God protects me, but I still stay with my dad
Starting point is 01:18:20 So according to the victim he left the scene now. I'm gonna tell you what happened now I'm gonna tell you what happened. It's just in my mind pastor power went home and prayed over his pistol He didn't proceeded to grab his holy hammer his godly Glock Then he went back to confront this heathen who don't be tithing and proceeded to pistol whip this man in the name of Jesus Okay, divine discipline is what it's called now in the Bible Roman 12 19 It says beloved never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord. That's what made Pastor Roy return to the scene of the crime and apologize. Because he knew in that moment he let the devil use
Starting point is 01:18:56 him. But again I ask, what if heaven was hell and vice versa? Would you start doing evil in order to nurture? He had to apologize because that's the Christian way. Acknowledge the wrong and express remorse. Gotta ask for forgiveness after you pistol whip somebody, not just from God, but from others, especially the person you hurt. Then you repent, okay? You gotta make a sincere effort to change and avoid repeating the mistake.
Starting point is 01:19:19 But Pastor Roy 72, if this is true, that wasn't his first pistol whipping and it won't be his last, especially if y'all don't go to church and give up that 10%. If this is true, that wasn't his first pistol whipping and it won't be his last, especially if y'all don't go to church and give up that 10%. I don't feel like I gave him the credit he deserved for being stupid, but it's because what if heaven was hell and vice versa? Please get Pastor Roy Powell, the biggest he-ho.
Starting point is 01:19:37 Y'all better tie. That's right, I do every Sunday. You better. I do. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir. Now when we come back, we have a gentleman by the name of Harry O joining us. He's a former artist of Murder Inc.
Starting point is 01:19:56 He has a new book out right now. It's called Beyond Words. It's the art of calculated communication. Now Harry O, he's from the Bronx. He used to be signed to, I think, Uptown Records, then he was signed to Murder Inc. Now he's a professor, and he connects the dots. He has a new book out, and we're gonna talk to him next.
Starting point is 01:20:11 All about it, so don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the God, we are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is here as well, and we got a special guest in the building, we got the good brother, Harold Wilkerson.
Starting point is 01:20:31 Ha ha ha ha ha. I don't think anybody gonna know who that is. Hario, ladies and gentlemen, what's up, brother? What's going on, E? What's going on, everyone? Thank you for having me. LL, Lauren, what's up? Hario got a new book called It's Beyond Words,
Starting point is 01:20:42 which is out right now. And you talk about the art of calculated communication. Yes. What is that? Great question. So the art of calculated communication, let me just rewind a little bit for the room who may not know or those who don't know in the room that besides an entertainment executive, I'm also a college professor and I've been teaching communication courses for maybe 12 to 13 years
Starting point is 01:21:07 If you're gonna go that far let's go all the way back You know harry oh it was started off as a rapper. Yes, that's how I originally know harry oh He's from high bridge east from the bronx. He started off as a rapper from there and was And was signed to the ink. Yes signed to the ink. You was a hype man for gyro for many years Um, and then you stopped rapping and now breaking that. Well first of all, how did you meet Irv and everybody and go through that whole list of things? Great question.
Starting point is 01:21:33 So let me rewind, right? So first, I started the entertainment business. I had a deal with Uptown Records first. With Andre Harrell and everyone over there. God bless the dead. My favorite label ever. Favorite, favorite, right? Best for R&B music.
Starting point is 01:21:45 Alright so I was maybe like in eighth grade so that came when um then I was working with Puff for a while. Whoa! Oh that bad boy. Yeah listen I know my guys going through a lot but I gotta give him a lot of credit for helping me of where I'm at today. Like I have to give him his credit because I probably wouldn't be here without the image of him right? But you can't take away what he did professionally. Professionally and what he did for me and my life person. He did a lot for me and I tell you about it if I have time. He stuck up for me plenty of times when executive tried to blackball me and things like that. Puff found out about it, step in, like, no, you're not doing that to my guy.
Starting point is 01:22:18 So I got to give him his credit. So from there we transitioned quick. I had to deal with Motown. I had to deal with Murder Inc. How many deals did you have? Four deals. Okay. Starting at eighth grade. Starting in eighth grade. Starting in eighth grade. Like I've been doing entertainment for a long time. So now fast forward. Let me just tell you as far as me and Ja. I met Ja on the set of a movie called Turn It Up. Right. You're not gonna remember me in the movie because they edited me out the movie. So you're not gonna remember me,
Starting point is 01:22:47 but if you look at the credits, you'll see me in the credits or whatever. So the movie was shot in Canada. So we traveled to Canada, right? I'm there with my manager. We're trying to get into Canada. My manager at the time, he gets arrested. For some reason he can't get into Canada.
Starting point is 01:23:01 You know how that goes. So now I'm just, I'm young, I'm in Canada about to shoot this movie, I'm by myself, I'm a little nervous. So my trailer is right next to Ja's trailer. But I would always see Ja in the violator office because we was working with Violator Def Jam, but we never really, you know, knew each other. We saw each other, we passed. So I'm in a trailer, he knocks on my trailer door. So I open up, he go, oh you signed a Def Jam, you signed a
Starting point is 01:23:25 bar later? I'm like, nah, my God, my son is, and we doing work over there. He go, man, I hear you here by yourself and your manager got arrested. Listen, anything you need, come to my trailer. If you need weed, if you need Hennessy, if you need anything. John has been trying to get me high since I met him. But yeah, I don't do any of that. So from there, John and I had a connection. That was was his first album like right before his first album came out after his album came out He like blew up and took off and you know my career was going wherever it was going But anytime we would see each other it would like we will stop everything and give each other love And then I met Chris Gotti Irv's brother
Starting point is 01:24:01 Somewhere in the club and he knew I did music. He said listen, why don't you come down to the studio? Went into the studio, started recording records with Irv, records with Ashanti, records with Ja, the next you know a brotherhood form where although me and Ja came in through entertainment, that's more my brother. Like that's my guy. And I said before my company, Chase Republic, we serve as like an independent agency for them. We close a lot of different deals like I do with you, E and we talk about, made a lot of money together. But more importantly, that's my brother.
Starting point is 01:24:31 That's my guy. So now, so now you get out of music and music never takes off. You can look at it that way. You tell me. Well, I had the transition. I always say this, right? Somebody can ask you like, how do you view success? Right?
Starting point is 01:24:46 So in your eyes, you may say, Hario, as an artist, wasn't successful. And that's fine. You can see it that way. I don't view it that way. I view it as, I came in an entertainment business in eighth grade. I made a life out of it.
Starting point is 01:25:00 I'm sitting here doing an interview on the Breakfast Club. Not a rapper. I'm not a- I always knew you was an executive. Like rapper. I'm not a- Always knowing you as an executive. Like that's how I always looked at Harry O as an exec. I never even knew anything about no rapper. Like the E being a DJ. Yeah, it's been plenty of times where like I would have to wait for E outside of a radio
Starting point is 01:25:16 station for her to give music play. Like we have that relationship. You and I met later on in life as being an entertainment exec. It's same thing with Lauren. Like you and I met, first conversation I have with you is executive same thing with Lauren when you and I met first conversation I have with you it says listen Capacities make some money with you right and that's how it went But he just knows a little bit of the backstory
Starting point is 01:25:33 But yeah, so it all depends on how you want to look at it as far as you're not being successful But I made a life for it my daughter listen. I paid her tuition for entertainment Do you understand her private school tuition? Which we all know is very expensive all through entertainment. So someone asks hey weren't you weren't successful? I don't know. I'm gonna say that I think from pretty well Are you probably access cut without then I'm interested in know so from the artist perspective Then you transition into the executive side because of the relationships and what is that transition because you started at eight An executive is an adult making real adult decisions, right? well, it's two foes to it, right?
Starting point is 01:26:08 As I said, I've been a college professor teaching communication courses. Now with communication, I understand the art of connecting with others. But first connecting with yourself and what we talk about. Once I understood and fully came of who I am, a higher sense of awareness of me,
Starting point is 01:26:24 I understood my abilities. I understood how I can build relationships. So I just started to build and form credible relationships with people, building trust, but in a strategic way, not in a manipulative way, just very strategic. And like I can talk a lot about me and Envy because Envy and I made some money together and our relationship built and I was intentional on how we're building our relationship so what I did was I just merged the world between entertainment and education and made a life. So what is the art of calculated communication and how that helped you navigate through all those different worlds? So the art of calculated communication what I would do is this
Starting point is 01:27:02 say with Lauren for instance instance, right? I met Lauren at the Brooklyn Nets event. Now, I understand it takes more than one encounter for us to start building some type of relationship, but we have to have that first encounter. It has to be a genuine encounter. It has to be maybe someone can help build that bridge between you and I, and I use June. June, EMB's manager, whoever's listening, I said, June, do me a favor. Let her know. Stamp me. Let her know.
Starting point is 01:27:30 So June went to you and said, hey, Hario, this is my guy. That's all I needed to start building some type of communication with you. In order for Lauren and I to build a relationship, I have to get her to peel back her layers. I have to try to get to know her. The closer I get to her, the more of a chance I have of doing her to peel back her layers. I have to try to get to know her. The closer I get to her, the more of a chance I have of doing great business with her. I just can't pick up the phone and say, hey, I have a bunch of deals for you.
Starting point is 01:27:51 She doesn't even know who I am yet we have to build trust. So I have to get her to peel back layers. I have to ask her questions. But if she never responds, like say if I say, hey, as simple as this, Lauren, how was your day today? Great so far besides dealing with Charlamagne, but other than that, amazing I'm the best part of her day. What are your plans tomorrow? We have a flight. Wow. Well, not them, but the producers and stuff. Now check this out, right? So I would have to work a little bit harder now with Lauren because although I asked her these questions,
Starting point is 01:28:21 and I know we're on air a lot going on, I asked her how was her day right and she said how would they was she didn't say how was yours, too? Oh, shoot? Sorry, so That's what I'm anticipating the next question. I know I would know it's fine I'm interested in knowing about her day, but I want to see how much Interest she's holding in me to know about me as well and sooner or later that will come This is our maybe like our second encounter But if I can't get you to have that exchange with me I have to work a lot harder and be more strategic and to get you to communicate with me
Starting point is 01:28:53 And if you never do that, it's like alright This person doesn't have any interest in building with me in this area We're still kicking it with Harry Oh Harry Oh is a professor ex Murder ink artist as well. And how did Irv Gotti's death affect you, bro? Camp Shane, one of America's longest running weight loss camps for kids, promised extraordinary results.
Starting point is 01:29:17 Campers who began the summer in heavy bodies were often unrecognizable when they left. In a society obsessed with being thin, it seemed like a miracle solution. But behind Camp Shane's facade of happy, transformed children was a dark underworld of sinister secrets. Kids were being pushed to their physical and emotional limits as the family that owned Shane turned a blind eye. Nothing about that camp was right. It was really actually like a horror movie.

The passing of them, I see how it affects me and everyone around. Like I am very, very, very close with Jah.
Starting point is 01:33:08 Right? And Irv and I were really cool, but I'm closer with Jah. It affects me because in this way, no one may not know this outside of his family. Irv is such a family, family man. Right? I have never seen a family as close as his in my life. I've never seen it. So and he was like the hero of the family and for and no disrespect to anyone else in the family that's doing great things but he was like a hero and so for the hero to pass
Starting point is 01:33:42 and see how that affects the family dynamic, it made me how it affects me. It made me come closer with my family. Like Irv is the type where, listen, it was holidays. His house is packed with the whole family. Not just him and the kids, it's nieces, it's nephews, it's aunts and uncles. It's like 30 people running around his house and it was just a loving, loving, loving family. A lot of people didn't see that side of him.
Starting point is 01:34:08 You see Murder Inc, you see the music or you see the problems with the 50 Cent or whatever, so on and so forth, but the guy was an amazing family man. And to watch that, and as a father, yeah, it affects me. Like, I wanna be closer with my family, the way Irv is with his family. So that's how I would say it affects me. You know, what's interesting,
Starting point is 01:34:25 when you talk about the art of communication, like I like the way Irv communicated. It may have rubbed some people the wrong way, but I like it because it's direct. Like when we talked about how it was intentional, he wasn't the small talker. It was, this is what we doing, this how we doing it, this how I think it should go.
Starting point is 01:34:43 I like that. No, listen, absolutely. It's something to be admired there. Everyone has different strategies on how they communicate. Irv being direct may work for them with certain people, but I'm quite sure it didn't work with everyone. So it all depends on what your style is. And I was thinking about something.
Starting point is 01:35:06 Yeah, some people don't like small talk and that's fine. Like in the book, I mentioned a term called farming and hunting. Those are different ways of nurturing a relationship. When we're cutting the small talk out, I'm hunting. I know exactly what I want. I know what you have. We know we can make that work.
Starting point is 01:35:22 But every relation doesn't work like that. Sometimes we have to farm, we have to plant seeds. I don't know where the relationship may go, but I know we can possibly build. So I'm going to plant seeds, then we just water the seeds, water the seeds, and next thing you know, we're eating off the fruit from the seeds. And is it really important? Yes, I'm an entertainment executive. So all we're talking about is how these theories affect in business It's in your personal life as well. If a young man is trying to get to know a young lady or vice versa is Ways you go about that you have to be intentional. You have to be strategic. Yes
Starting point is 01:35:59 What is your goal by dating this woman? That's transaction cut talk. It doesn't work like that in your personal life. Right? You have to farm. Your daughter is seeing someone, the oldest one. They're not engaging in like that. No, uh-uh. I'm sorry. She's 23.
Starting point is 01:36:14 She's 23. Right. But that young gentleman, he had to farm the relationship with Madison. Right? He had to farm. It wasn't a transaction or a hunting relationship, it doesn't work like that. He had to be intentional. Farm, plant seeds, whatever those seeds are, check up on it, know her birthday, know her
Starting point is 01:36:32 dad's birthday, so on and so forth. So farming and hunting are two different ways of building a relationship. I look at college courses as sometimes outdated. Yes. Right? And that bothers me a lot, especially with my kids going to college because a lot of things that they want to learn or that they're into, a lot of times these colleges don't necessarily teach, right?
Starting point is 01:36:51 My first major was communications. I left communications and went to business management and marketing. But for me, what I wanted to learn for communications wasn't helping me with what I wanted to do, right? Communications was a lot of reading, a lot of intro, a lot of this, a lot of that, but I wanted to be hands on with this stuff like that. So talk about some of the courses that you think should be in college and some of the things that should be taken out of college.
Starting point is 01:37:13 Right. That's a great, because I have to- No disrespect, a lot of the algorithms that I learned in college, I don't use, I've never used, and if I have to, I have a computer that will do it for me. Absolutely. Now, it's two parts I'm going to get into. Now some of the courses that are in college, I have to be I have a computer that will do it for me. Absolutely. Now, there's two parts I want to get into. Now, some of the courses that are in college, I have to be really careful because I'm still a college professor and I don't want the college to be listening right now. So, I do believe there should be more
Starting point is 01:37:35 entrepreneur courses in college. We're going to need AI courses in college. We're going to need real estate courses in college. You're going need real estate courses in college, you're gonna need these things in colleges. Now I believe certain colleges are doing it. Ja'ru's son, shout out to Jordy, he just graduated from SCAD in Atlanta. That's Savannah. Savannah, yeah I'm sorry, Savannah. And he was home for his sister's wedding and we were in the kitchen at Ja's house and he
Starting point is 01:38:03 was saying how all these different courses that he's taking, it was never available to me as a student. So some of the courses that we're talking about, we've been removed from college for a little bit, some of these colleges are doing that. Like teaching him how to code, he can build games, he can do all the things that I would never even thought of. That's like an art school.
Starting point is 01:38:21 I know because my daughter's been talking about it, she's like, that's the one school she's looking at. But like even when Jod talks, he's like, listen, I visited the campus and I'm like, I've never seen a school like this. So yeah, I do think we need those particular courses. Now let me just rewind as far as like a communication course. I mentioned in the book, I credit Eddie Murphy to where, to one of the reasons I'm here today in the movie Boomerang. Like Boomerang is one of my favorite movies. He was a marketing executive, he garnered so much attention from women, he was smart,
Starting point is 01:38:51 he was everything. I'm watching this, and this goes back to my representation, I'm watching this movie, I'm like, I want to do that. I want to know how to do that. So I was in college at the time, so I went to my counselor, I said, listen, in this movie, this guy Eddie Murphy, played Marcus Graham, he's a marketing executive. How do I get into marketing? She said, well, you need to understand what communication is to understand what marketing
Starting point is 01:39:15 is. I said, well, sign me up for all communication courses. X amount of years later, I'm doing marketing strategies for my own company. So I needed that course. I needed these courses to be able to do what I'm doing now Well, tell them where they could get this book, brother You can get the book on Amazon All right
Starting point is 01:39:33 If you're listening you could just type in Harold Wilkerson to be typing Harry Oh, nothing's gonna come up If people always make that mistake too, it'd be a bunch of y'all. It's you, it's Homie from Death Row. Right, and people always make that mistake too, but that's a different story. Yeah, but you can get the book on Amazon in a search engine, just put in It's Beyond Words by Harold Wilkerson, and in the pop-up. So please get the book. And one of the lessons I want you to understand and learn,
Starting point is 01:39:59 I delete it off, I closed deals with the WNBA, and I closed deals with the NBA for going over six to seven seasons now and it all started for me attending one basketball game. I attended a game and it went from the person who handed me my ticket to go sit on the floor and through strategic and intentional communication, I started closing deals with the CEO of the New York Liberty, the CEO of the Brooklyn Nets. Like it went from attending, like how do you attend a game and then fast-forward you closing deals with the owners and CEOs of WNBAs and NBAs and you hear all that if you pick up the
Starting point is 01:40:39 book. All right. Hario ladies and gentlemen pick up the book it's Beyond Words available now. Yes sir. Appreciate your brother. the book. It's beyond words available now. Yes, sir. Appreciate your brother Thank you. It's Harry. Oh, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club Morning everybody is DJ envy just hilarious. Show me the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren I'm becoming a straight face. Tell her, tell her, baby. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Starting point is 01:41:09 She be having the latest on this. That sound the biggest. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes she have facts, sometimes she have details, sometimes she have a little bit of everything. But what's the latest? On The Breakfast Club. Talk, talk to me.
Starting point is 01:41:21 All right, y'all. So in wrapping up our BET Awards talk, we do got to talk about the fact that Jess, you mentioned you would love to have seen Kaisenai and Druski a bit more in the BET Awards involved, right? I was walking into the radio show this morning here in LA with someone who said to me, the only reason that he even knew about the awards or how he watched the awards last night was because of Kaisenai's stream.
Starting point is 01:41:43 The stream went viral yesterday for a few moments The biggest moment was uh, one of the big moments was Kaiss and I and while they have an interaction Let's take a listen to the original interaction between Kaiss and I and while I What up, broski? You good? What you playing on your nintendo switch? Snatch, bro, i'll beat you All right, yeah Wally, oh my god, that was somebody crazy. Hey, the whole chat knows him. Wale. Wale. What he do? Wrapped. Oh, word? Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:42:17 Yes. Yeah. So, so because Kai didn't know who Wale was, that clip started to go insanely viral. So now Kai is in the awards. He's sitting there. I mean, they're running with it, but we'll talk later. Wale my guy, but that situation not that serious. Yeah, I really just hope he playing. What? Yeah. You gotta think Kai's now 23, Wale is 40. He probably does not know Wale's music.
Starting point is 01:42:46 He does not, but even if he doesn't know, you know, the chat told him and it ain't like he said anything crazy. No, he just said, oh that's the money. Who is he? Oh that son? Oh, cool. And he may have checked him out after that, you know what I'm saying, but I would be happy that the chat even knew who I was, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:43:01 You know, your chat schooled you on who I was. I wouldn't have came back and said anything And age you know I guess plays a factor, but do we we do realize when it comes to art? Celebrity regardless of how big something may seem in your world everything is niche Okay, if you think if you think everyone in the world knows everybody then you're bugging and guess what I can bring a bunch of screamers In front of Wale who have tens of millions of followers and he wouldn't know most of them either. So the internet really made this much ado about nothing.
Starting point is 01:43:31 But like Kai wasn't disrespectful. He just said the wrong name, his name. It was like nah, that's Wale. He did flow with his lot load about it. He's like oh word, that's son. That was it. Yes, Kai is never disrespectful. Nah, not at all.
Starting point is 01:43:42 And if Wale was going to double back, double back and introduce yourself to Kai. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like don't think everybody in the world knows you. When you meet someone that you've never met before, introduce yourself. I've seen Beyonce walk in the room
Starting point is 01:43:55 and introduce herself to people. Yeah. All the time. So if Beyonce can do that, so can you. Yeah, absolutely. And just because you meet a person one time don't mean that they know you. That's right. Welcome to them. If that's the first time meeting them,
Starting point is 01:44:08 yo, what's up? How are you? My name is such and such. You might got to remind me. Like I met you, oh, I did meet you that one time behind the stage. Jess, how you doing?

Starting point is 01:45:23 six figures, high six figures, to live-screen your award show is a bugging if you don't pay Kai's to not, you know, six figures, high six figures, to live-screen your award show from backstage. Like whatever money y'all spending on promotion and marketing for a bunch of stuff people don't see, you better spend with that demographic. You better give Kai, you know, high six figures. Do it beforehand and during the show, like you said, so you can promote it.

And the one that JLo opened up with, yes, that was AMAs, American Music Awards. I think I saw that because of Kai.
