Good morning. Yes.
How y'all feel out there?
I feel blessed, black, and highly favored.
Happy to be here for another day to serve.
Our last day before vacation, baby.
That is right.
And we had a special guest in the building a little earlier.
We had Marley in the building.
Marley made a little.
We had Marley.
Tell us who Marley is first.
She popped up for a second.
Marley is Jess Hilaris' second child.
And she popped up for a second. She said, what'saris's second child and she popped up for a second.
She said, what's up? She said, gang gang and then she went back to sleep.
She don't need to be saying gang gang. Yeah, then she went back to sleep. Can y'all hear
me? Because I feel like the Bruce Lee movie again.
You're a little Bruce Lee-ish. Your mouth is moving, but y'all can't. See, this is
where I hate doing radio from home. This is crazy.
It's just a little delay. That's all. Nothing crazy.
Yeah, they'll fix it in a second. Yeah, a little Bruce Lee-ish, but you good though.
Yeah. What you mean a little Bruce Lee-ish?
Because her mouth is moving but the lyrics are coming like 30 seconds later. The Kung Fu movies,
y'all know how, you know, Bruce Lee will be talking and then you won't hear nothing until after he say what he said. That's right.
Yeah, I don't see it. I don't see it. Yeah. I'm looking at her now. It's getting together now. I think it's good now.
Alright, well we got some special guests joining us today. We have Skills, Madskills, V.A.'s own.
He'll be joining us. You know Skills used to do the wrap-up. Phenomenal rapper and writer.
He'll be talking to us. He's nominated for a Grammy, so we'll be talking to Skills.
He actually put out a poetry album called The Seven Number Ones.
And it's the seven first in his life.
And so he decided to do it as a poetry album
and not a rap album.
And now he's nominated for a Grammy.
That's right.
And also Little Baby will be joining us.
Charlamagne had a conversation with Little Baby
that we're gonna be getting on in a little bit.
Yeah, last weekend I went down to,
well I'm not gonna say where I went,
but I was down there and me and Little Baby
had a conversation about his new album.
His new album comes out called Wham!
Comes out on January 3rd.
That's right.
So we're gonna be kicking with that, man.
I'm in Atlanta right now.
Salute to 96.1 The Beat.
Tonight is their first Jingle Ball,
which is a huge concert,
which has performances from Glowrilla,
Sexy Red, Gunna, T.I., T-Pain, Saweetie, Kid Leroy,
Khalid, and Tinashe.
So there's still like very little tickets left.
So if you want to get some tickets, get your tickets now.
We're going to have an amazing time.
I'm in Atlanta the whole day.
I was out and about in the city for the pre-party last night.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
So if you get a chance, if you're in the Atlanta area, if you're in the Georgia area, you want
to pull up and you want to see Glowrilla, you want to see Sexy Red, T.I. and all those
people I just named, get your tickets. It's our guy Louis V's first concert
So we're gonna support Louis V they gave Louis V a big-ass budget
I'm gonna for gorilla and sexy red
I don't know if they gave a good budget or if he was able to do some stuff around
He might have been able to wiggle you might have to do some something strange for some change damn Louis V for all I'm honest
And do y'all know your DJs be having connections or whatever.
He probably cool with half of them.
Ain't nobody doing nothing for free no more.
They don't need a radio like that.
That's why I said they might have to do something strange for some changes.
I don't know.
That's crazy.
If you the one sucking beef with little Sexy Red to perform, that's crazy.
If you doing what Sexy Red perhaps about to get her to perform, that's crazy.
That's crazy. Right, right
Yeah, all right. Well, let's get the show crack and we got front page news more gonna be joining us
It's the breakfast club. Good morning. Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club
Let's get some front page news
now on Thursday night football
The Broncos take on the charges at 815. Good morning, Morgan
Oh, the Broncos take on the charges at 815. Good morning, Morgan.
Good morning.
Good morning, Envy, Charlamagne, and just hilarious.
How y'all feeling on this Thursday?
Good girl.
We're about to be on vacation.
I'm feeling good.
I know that's right.
So we love to see it.
We love to see it, whether it's before the holidays,
the new year, or whenever it hits.
The rates are lower, y'all.
So that's a good thing.
The Federal Reserve is lowering the rates
for the third time this year.
It was announced on Wednesday.
They're cutting interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point.
And Fed Chair Jerome Powell explains the reasoning.
Let's hear from him.
We decided it was the right call because we thought it was the best decision to foster
achievement of both of our goals, maximum employment and price stability.
We see the risks as too sited, moving too slowly and needlessly undermining economic activity in the labor market or move
too quickly and needlessly undermine our progress.
Yes, that's great.
Go ahead.
I was going to say that's great. I mean, you're seeing one of the highest foreclosure rates
on homes. You're seeing one of the highest of people getting their cars and their vehicles
taken. So the fact that they can lower some of those rates and cut off a lot of money off some
of these people's bills is amazing, which is I'm sure the reason why they were doing
it.
Absolutely.
So it does bring the Fed's benchmark short-term rates to a range of four and a quarter percent
to four and a half percent.
Now, Fed officials began lowering the rates from the fall from a 23-year high of five
and a half percent
as inflation has ease following the pandemic. Looking ahead, policymakers indicated that
two more rate cuts are likely in the year ahead 2025. So we're looking forward to that.
Meanwhile, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, he's speaking out after Republicans rejected
a bipartisan spending bill that would have averted a government shutdown. Now, Congress announced Tuesday that a deal had
been reached to keep the government open through March 14th. However, Republicans rejected it
after Trump released a statement regarding that bill. Now, Jeffries says Republicans will have to
face the consequence of a government shutdown. Let's hear more from House Minority Leader, Hakeem Jeffries.
House Republicans have been ordered
to shut down the government
and hurt everyday Americans all across this country.
House Republicans will now own any harm
that is visited upon the American people that results from a government shutdown or worse.
I feel like they do this every year.
I feel like every year they have this game of chicken when it comes to the government
shutdown.
Every couple of months it seems like, not every year.
Yeah, I was going to say.
Did we just deal with this a couple of months ago.
Yes, every few months for sure.
And now that there's a new incoming administration,
of course they're going to handle it differently
in how they want to handle it.
Jeffries also noted that the deal had disaster relief funds
and assistance for families and veterans,
so for Trump to kill this bill.
Yeah, we'll see how that impacts us in the coming year.
So the White House, of course, is criticizing President-elect Trump for sinking that bill.
Although Congress announced they had reached the deal earlier, White House Press Secretary
Corrine Jean-Pierre said Republicans need to stop playing politics with this bipartisan
agreement or they will hurt hardworking Americans and create instability across the
country. She added that the government's shutdown of course is going to hurt farmers, veterans
and families. Saying a deal is a deal and Republicans should keep their word. Meanwhile,
Elon Musk, he talked about it more than a hundred times yesterday on Ask X. He called
the bill criminal saying that he posted a warning saying that any member of the House or Senate who
votes for this outrageous bill deserves to be voted out in two years. So Musk and Vivek
Ramaswamy have been elected presidents, the president elects new heads of Department of
Government Efficiency. So, you know, the two have also voiced their opposition in regards
to the bill that would have had the government funded through March 14th. So again, the two have also voiced their opposition in regards to the bill that would have had
the government funded through March 14th.
So again, I'll keep you guys posted on this.
You know, we're going to take our little Christmas break.
We're going to have a little time with our family, but top of the year, you know, business
is back to business.
So we'll talk more about it at seven.
All right.

So I just watched a video
of Benzino
crouching out! Did y'all talk about that yet?
No, we just got here!
We just got here 13 minutes ago.
So why is Benzino
shaking and walking
on the ground?
And his girlfriend is out here like,
no, stop, don't do that.
He got a knife in his hand,
so he trying to un-alive himself
because she called the police.
Because he slapped her up, allegedly.
Now, he went and did a response video,
and this don't say,
this was for a rehearsal for a Tooby movie.
Jazz, do you be acting like that for a Tooby movie audition?
It depends on what the movie is. It depends on what the movie is.
But I don't know. I don't know. We're going to talk about it. I don't know.
First of all, nobody auditions for a Tooby movie, okay?
You just walk in as it is. You just walk in as it is.
Don't do that. Don't do that.
Don't do that.
They do hold auditions.
You just roll out of bed, you walk right in and get to talking.
Get the part, that's it.
Now don't do just like that Charlamagne because I keep telling you about these homeless slippers
you keep wearing and I've seen this last picture that you had on and then all of your spots
were looking crazy.
Oh don't tell her I was preparing for a Rollin' the Tubi movie.
That's what you don't know. What is that called? Blinky Socks, Charlamagne? What is going on?
It's called Bum in the City. Not Sex in the City, Bum in the City and it's about a man just trying
to make it in these mean streets of New York, okay Okay No, that don't even make sense. I just got a call a friend of the room and tell Benzie
No, stop crashing out. He need medicine and go to the doctor. Okay
If he is, you know, if he wasn't preparing for a role in a Tooby movie and he was indeed online threatening to kill himself
We don't want that. No, but he said it was a movie. That's what he said it was.
No there's no way bro. Go look at the video.

Hello, who's this?
That's right, good morning, Breakfast Club.
It's J.A. from Indy.
J.A.
What's up, J.A.?
Hey crew, me and my son got beached, man.
Me and my son got beached.
How old is your son, first of all?
He's 19.
Oh, why y'all got beached?
What you thinkin'?
I ain't gonna let him beat me up.
He definitely gonna beat your ass,
but come on, continue.
What happened?
All right, so real quick, he don't listen to me.
I made a deal with him. I said from January through June which is the summertime you
get straight A's I'll pay your whole rent but you know why he's in college
check his report card it ain't an A on there B and C and I'm like listen man you
moved off campus and you know lost your way you to join its fraternity so you
stay with your mom when you come home from this break cuz we got B's. Bro
like let's be honest I know every parent wants their kids to have A's but college is
difficult especially your first year off campus it is very difficult to get acclimated.
Give him a little grace, he got B's and C's man.
Oh we got B's and C's.
He can get those up.
If he's failing that's different.
Yeah he's not failing he just he average.
Yeah right but I think what I can take away from this is I never whooped him growing up but now I'm rethinking that whole process. It B is a T. Oh yeah, come on, yeah. Yeah, right, but I think what I can take away from this
is I never whooped him growing up,
but now I'm rethinking that whole process.
It's too late now.
For a B?
That's what I should've whooped him.
A B is good, bro.
Damn.
You gon' whoop him?
Who is your parents?
What the fuck did they do to you?
Damn.
Yeah, you Nigerian, you must be Nigerian.
You stupid.
Hey, man, look, I appreciate y'all out of here.
I'm upset.
Yeah, that must be a Nigerian. Nigerian like you. What you mean you have no A?
What accent was that?
That was not Nigerian.
I don't know what accent that was.
Ain't nothing wrong with a B?
I don't know.
I mean of course you want to encourage your kids to do better, but if a B is a B.
Nah. Alright.
Man, if he told me he was going to pay my rent I would have a.
He tried.
College is difficult.
Well his daddy might be seeing something that we don't see like you know his dad might be
saying you're not focused enough.
If you was focused you'd be getting A's.
Yeah but the fact he said you can't come home to my house you got to stay with your
mom because you got a B is crazy.
He didn't get D's and F's.
But he joined a fraternity and he's probably doing a lot more partying than focusing.
You know what I mean?
That is true.
Alright, well get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
We got Just With The Mess coming up?
What are we talking about?
Yes, yes.
This Murray couple has been fighting back and forth, cardio and offset.
We're going to get into what they're talking about.
Alright, we'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning. The Breakfast Club we'll get into that. Next is the breakfast club. Good morning the breakfast club
Mario morning everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club. Let's get to just with the mess
She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide message.
On the Breakfast Club.
She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could
get you to see.
It's time to set it off.
Alright, bear with me through this story y'all because Cardi and Offset they was going back
and forth and when they, like I always say when two rappers go back and forth is like they should have
put it in a song because they type like they rap or whatever right so Cardi and Offset
have added us back into the chat again y'all remember Cardi had let us know that her and
Offset had to come to some sort of peaceful space remember she said we've been peaceful
for a week that space was very very small it was very short-lived because it's gone
now Cardi and Offset was online going at it yesterday going back and forth with fans and each other
and Offset had took shots at Cardi on X telling her it's giving ho and that's not the look
that she wanted.
Verbatim he said, nobody win when the family fights stop capping to these people to make
yourself look like the ho.
It ain't the look you want you You're a fire woman, good music,
but you focus on ding-a-ling
and trying to make me look bad.
Focus, bruh, this ish is wack, from both of us, honestly.
Drop the album and go up.
By ding-a-ling, you mean penis?
Yes. Absolutely.
Okay.
But can I say ding-a-ling?
Yes, you can say ding-a-ling.
All right, that's better.
Okay, so Cardi responded, she says,
so dating because I'm single means I'm just worrying about ding-a-ling. Alright, that's better. Okay, so Cardi responded, she says,
So dating because I'm single means I'm just worrying about ding-a-ling?
You sound like a dummy, trying to be fake nice after you did what you did from the beginning,
trying to push a narrative to these people. Congratulations. F off and sign the papers today.
Offset responds,
When you split the custody, I will. You ain't worried about music, you're worried about ding-a-ling.
Everybody can see it, all you talk about is ding-a-ling. And in the club, you're burnt. No music, no nothing, just worried about ding-a-ling everybody can see it all you talk about is ding-a-ling and in the club is burnt no music no
nothing just drama and ding-a-ling so offset also said single and miserable
check till check to last spaces you mentioned me you getting you getting hit
at the flex though get your flex on my mind that must be like something from a
song I don't know but Cardi hopped on spaces she must have got tired of typing and this what she said I'm push this narrative stop play with me
I told you to shut the fuck up and leave me the phone alone. Hey, yes I apologize to you about posting those text messages, but no you want to keep it you want to take
Valley right now. I'm sleeping and you're trying me. Can I can I ask one simple question?
What's that? Why do we need to know all of this?
Like why can't they just be texting each other
and when they do text each other,
they don't have to take the text to social media.
Like I don't understand why they are bringing
so many other people into what's going on
in their relationship.
Yeah, that's easy to be said,
but you know, when one starts on social media,
another replies and then it just gets out of hand.
Because some people feel like, nah, you lying.
I gotta redeem myself.
Cause you know the media gonna go
With whatever whoever come out first with some negative issue I already know that y'all seen what happened with Remy and Pat and and that's why I feel like Pat felt like he had to
Get online cuz Remy was coming at this man like straight up straight up like that
But I don't know whose words that Murray couple or this Murray couple
But it was so many tweets back and forth like I said that was just the ones that I had pulled
See I'll get the main gist of what the argument was about many tweets back and forth. Like I said, that was just the ones that I had pulled so y'all
can get the main gist of what the argument was about. Offset has basically been speaking
out and saying that Cardi is being different behind the scenes and that Cardi's still on
him which she denies. You know what I'm saying? So it's just crazy because everybody knows
Cardi has been embarrassed by Offset for so long but she kept going back and going back
and that's why her fans should be getting it to her with her fans or whatever it's just been embarrassing and in some of
the sweets she even said that she said she's been in the house for years now that she out
you know what I mean now you now I'm a hoe you know what I'm saying now that I'm not
at home waiting for you to finish doing what you're doing you pop out with a bitch every
other week you know what I'm saying but now that I'm trying to move on now I'm dating
or whatever I gotta be a hoe and all of that.
I don't understand you can't complain uh, you know people being in your business
You can't complain about people talking about you all the time if you're constantly giving them so much of your personal life, right?
That's right. That's right, man. So I just really hope that they can move forward amicably. They got three children, right?
Yep, they got three children. So I mean, I just really hope that they can come cuz just last week
She said we had peaceful week. I'm wishing for many more of those peaceful weeks in 2025
It's gonna take some time. No single or not. I know it's gonna take some time. I mean, it's still emotional
They still probably feel the way about different and the sad thing about it is Charlamagne to say, you know, we know Remy
We know Pat we know offset. We know Cardi B
They're saying people like they're smart people right now
They're letting the internet in the world get the best of it
And I wish like Charlamagne said they would take it off this social media and this internet and just deal with it internally
Yeah, yeah, absolutely
moving on
Black Panther announcement so y'all know
Black Panther is about to be fired
I mean basically we heard Denzel talk about it and the reason why I was gonna be fired because people who working on the movie can't stop talking about it even when they're not supposed to.
Now I did something like that so I can speak to this but. I'm about to play Othello at 70. After
that I'm playing Hannibal. After that I've been talking with Steve McQueen about a film.
After that Ryan Coogler is writing a part for me in the next Black Panther. After that
I'm going to do the film Othello. After that I'm going to do King Lear. After that I'm
going to retire.
Alright so after that he ended up calling Ryan Cooley to apologize for saying something
about the movie prematurely because ain't nobody supposed to be saying nothing yet.
Now Marvel fans they really excited.
I'm a Marvel fan so I'm a Marvel-y and the reason why is because the Marvel executive
who was leaving the company also made mention of the Black Panther 3.
Nate Moore, he my cousin, a top
creative, for real he's a top creative executive at Marvel and he is leaving the company after
being with them for 14 years and he confirmed that even though he was leaving the company
he still is going to continue working on the Black Panther franchise for at least one more
film and this is what he said verbatim. My cousin was like, I couldn't be more excited
to apply my experience
and passion for film towards theatrical movies
in all genres, including returning to the world
of Wakanda for Black Panther 3.
So even though ain't nobody supposed to be saying nothing,
that's what we getting y'all.
Denzel at that age where you can't really tell him nothing
because he don't care.
So he gonna spill all his dust,
he gonna tell all his old stories. Whatever you tell him now, he ain't gonna lie for you because he don't care so he gonna spill all his guts. He gonna tell all his old stories
Whatever you tell him now. He ain't gonna lie for you. He ain't keeping no secrets
He had that age if you don't want the truth don't ask him no questions Yeah, okay listen if I didn't told these people that I did dope a couple times
They definitely gonna find out about Black Panther exactly you know it is what it is, but that is just with the mess

8.15.
Good morning, Morgan.
Good morning, Envy, Charlamagne, Jess.
Listen, our government. 815 good morning Morgan. Good morning. Envy show me just
Listen our government in the last hour. We did speak about a bill that would have kept the government funded through March
Congress clap back Queen Jasmine Crockett, I believe it's on the phone called up for Charlemagne. Can you take it from here?
Charlotte Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Good morning, Jasmine. Good morning, y'all. How you feeling? Good morning, girl. Terrible.
Why?
They don't want me to go home.
Oh, boy.
Jasmine, why does it seem like this threat of a government shutdown happens every year?
Every couple months it seems like it.
Yeah, you're right.
It has been an ongoing every couple of months type of situation, but we always made it through.
But this time, I don't know what's going to happen.
Listen, we don't have elections elections so they didn't already got elected
They sure that everybody gonna forget in two years like everybody forgot four years later all the crap that we went through with Trump
So now they're talking about shutting down the government so when y'all get stuck at the airport trying to get home
Hey, y'all know who to blame so what what does can you break down?
What exactly that means because when people hear it we hear it so much, it really means nothing anymore.
So when they talk about shutting down the government and we see millions sent to all
these different countries, what does shutting down the government actually really mean?
It legitimately means like turning off the lights.
So if there is a governmental agency, no money really for the most part is flowing through
to that agency.
So when you think about our military, whether our troops are here or abroad, they're not
getting money.
Okay, so they still have to show up because we consider them to be essential, but they're
not getting checked.
So same thing with TSA.
TSA is essential.
Same thing with our air traffic controllers.
They're essential.
When you think about border patrol, they're essential, but they're not getting checked. So what happens is a lot of people burn through any time that they have off because they're essential. When you think about border patrol, they're essential, but they're not getting checks.
So what happens is a lot of people burn through
any time that they have off,
because they're like, well, why am I gonna show up
and you're not gonna pay me?
And you risk losing your job if you're like,
no, what, I can't do this.
Like we need money today,
so I'm gonna go and get another job.
They actually will fire you if you go and get another job.
So for anybody that is receiving a section eight benefits
or trying to get benefits,
you may not necessarily get that
because there's nobody there processing that.
If you're trying to get your veterans benefits,
you may not get that.
So any and everything that the federal government touches,
it stops.
Damn.
Well, whose fault is this Jasmine?
Because you know, a Democrat says Republicans fault.
I saw JD Vance and Trump saying yesterday it was Democrats fault.
So whose fault is it when Congress doesn't want to do things like raise the nation's
debt ceiling?
Okay, so the debt ceiling is completely different.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Okay.
So this is something different.
Yeah, the debt ceiling is different, but he's trying to throw that into our budget.
Okay?
Okay.
So basically, like, just pretend like you paying your bills for the month and you got
your mortgage, you got your car note, you got your utilities.
So we have 12 appropriation bills.
We haven't gotten through our budget.
So basically it's like, you know what?
We just don't hold this over everything that we already been paying. We don't
keep paying it until March. That's what the continuing resolution is. Okay. But
let's say like you run out of money, you your bills are higher than the money
that you got coming in, right? That's when you hit basically your credit card
limit. That's the debt limit. Our debt ceiling will not be reached
until next year and we'll have to go through a fight to raise the limit and that kind of stuff.
But we haven't hit it. When they decided to get rid of Kevin McCarthy, it was Trump that was like,
y'all need a new speaker because he raised the debt ceiling. But he knows that he's about to run
up our debt like he did the first time.
So he wants to raise it before we've even hit the limit
because he wants to run up our debt,
taking care of all these rich folks
that he's putting into his administration.
Oh, okay.
So what do you think about when Elon Musk said
the government should shut down
until Trump becomes president?
What do you think about that?
Listen, considering the fact that they don't know how government works, I'm just gonna
say that things will get real spicy if that happens. So listen, I don't see us
shutting down that long. I mean if the Republicans are that ignorant, so be it.
But this is what happens when you put very rich people over the government
because they don't care
about the rest of us.
They're not gonna feel the same pain.
They can go off to whatever random island or country
they want to and wait it out and get taken care of.
That is not the case for the average American.
So, I mean, I just want y'all to understand
that Elon Musk is puppeteering Donald Trump right now.
He bought that presidency. For anybody that thought they were electing their homeboy,
somebody who's going to take care of them.
They he ain't consulted with y'all.
It's Elon is calling the shots.
So what can people do?
What can people do?
Can they do anything or we just have to sit back and just take it?
I mean, listen, you can always call your representative.
And even if you have a representative that is of a different ideological background,
that you they are still your representatives.
So I would say put in the calls because that's how you get elected.
We don't get elected by Elon.
We don't get elected by Donald Trump.
We get elected by the people that are in our districts.
So it's important that we hear from them and they say, listen, do not shut the government down.
Hey Jasmine, I got two more questions. Something you said just now made me
think about something. You said that Elon bought the presidency, right? Elon
spent what? How much they said he spent on Trump's campaign? Like a couple
hundred million dollars?
No, 250. Yeah, $250 million. $250 million. So how does that get you? How
does that get you a presidency? But the over a billion dollars that the VP raised
doesn't?
Yeah, because there was a complete difference when you got one person that is spending that
much money.
That is who his allegiance is to.
I appreciate everybody that donated to the VP because that was a consolidated billion
dollars.
And that's just one person that did the $250 million.
We're talking about, he still got plenty of money from other people, but the only
person that he clearly is listening to and rewarding right now is Elon.
What do you want to see a Biden administration do over the next 30 days before they get out?
Well, one of the things that I just sent off to the president was a letter about the crack cocaine disparities. So we know that back
in the day it was a hundred to one difference when it came to crack cocaine.
We know under Obama it was reduced to 18 to 1 and as they prosecuted those cases
it's been one to one. But there's a lot of people that are still stuck in prison
right now that have that 18 to one disparity
I'm asking that all of those sentences be recalculated to a one-to-one and we have the numbers and thousands of people would actually
get out of prison and
Another few more thousand people would actually have their sentences reduced
And honestly anything that he can do to make Trump's transition more difficult. I'm here for it
Well, thank you. So you don't want a peaceful transfer of power
Listen it's gonna transfer
But if he decides that he wants to keep it shut down
I do want him to understand that there is not an exception in a shutdown for your inauguration
monies and in this continuing resolution,
they literally have more than $90 million in there
for his dag on inauguration party.
So, you know, whatever.
My last question, do you think Biden is quietly quit?
No, absolutely not.
We'll see.
If he don't do nothing over the next 30 days,
I'm gonna say he quit
Thank you congresswoman, I thank you Jasmine. All right. Thank you Morgan. Have a great holiday season. Oh, thank you guys. Happy holidays
I hope you guys enjoy your holiday season. See you top of 2025

All right now when we come back Charlemagne had an opportunity to sit down with little baby. This is part of his series
What's the name of the series? Out of context is my out of series that I do. I be sitting down having one-on-one conversations
with folks.
I'm gonna tell you something right now.
I watched Lil Baby and Lil Yachty yesterday.
Lil Baby was way more open and vulnerable
with Lil Yachty than he was with me.
I'm telling y'all that right now.
All right, but we'll get to that now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Now Charlamagne got a chance to sit down with Lil Baby.
This is part of his Out of Context podcast on YouTube.
And let's get into that.
Lil Baby.
How you doing?
How you feeling, brother?
Man, congratulations.
You just turned 30 a few weeks ago, man.
Sure. Getting up now.
You feel like the old head now?
Sure, a thousand percent.
What's the difference between turning 30 and growing up in your 20s?
It's crazy, it might seem like it, but even when you're 29, you don't feel like the same as 30.
It's just something about when you turn 30.
It's like a steep hill.
You feel like you got more responsibility now?
You know, I got the same responsibilities
I've been had.
It's just like, it's just something about them 20s
kind of give you a little lead way.
Right.
See, like when you turn 30,
ain't no more lead way.
What'd you think made you grow faster,
the streets or the industry?
I have to say both.
You know what I'm saying?
In its own way.
Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying? And it's always, you know what I'm saying?
The industry made me grow up faster,
like in like the real world,
but I had to still grow up faster in the streets,
you know what I'm saying?
Being a young kid doing grown man stuff.
So it's like both parts.
What's manhood look like to you at this point in your life?
Manhood and leadership.
That's one thing I loved about your documentary.
It was like, yo, you could tell
you was a leader from the beginning. Manhood to me. That's one thing I loved about your documentary. It was like you could tell you was a leader from the beginning
Man, it's me nice like all this stuff for working towards only to make sure like you and your family good
Is it true that um, your father left when you was just two years old
I ain't gonna say left. My mom mama, I live single parent, you know what I'm saying?
I know my dad's side of the family well though.
You know what I'm saying?
So it was just your mom and your two sisters?
Yeah.
So you were kind of required to be the man
of the house early, right?
Definitely.
Do you think you were required to do that
before you even understood what it was to be a man?
Sorry to ask this, but like you said,
like you grow up fast, you know what I'm saying?
So even when you do see stuff that you're used to,
you gotta like get with it quick.
How does that experience impact
the way you show up as a father?
I don't mind, number one, I want my kids to live a life
I live, no sort of kind of way, you know?
And they won't live the kind of life I live.
Does being a celebrity make it hard for you to be a hands-on father?
Definitely. I can't be there as much as I want to be.
You know what I'm saying? We can't do like the regular stuff.
And normally, we still try to do like regular ****.
But normally people do. But like for the most part, I'm always gone.
You know what I'm saying? If I do see them for a couple days,
they just not really getting settled and they gotta go again.
So it's definitely a... That's why I advise people to just wait. You say you're a lot. What I advise people to wait
You got like a career like mine. Oh that kids. Yeah
How long would you wait?
I'm saying like get through your 20 kind of go through that lifestyle and kind of get away from all that
So you only gotta do it later on.
You know what I'm saying?
Go on and like get it out your system.
That's how I feel.
How strong is it to have a, I mean how good is it to have a real strong support system
like you know to have the right mother and children and all of that?
I mean everything to me definitely because you know what I'm saying?
Take advantage of the real family.
You know what I'm saying?
Or a kid.
So everybody input matters.
You know to me man I was talking to P earlier man and I'm saying? Or a kid. So everybody input matters.
You know, to me, man, I was talking to P earlier, man,
and I was saying that I feel like the internet wants you
to fall off so bad.
It just seemed like overnight, they had a little baby
fell off campaign.
Where do you think that came from?
I don't even care, really.
I be saying that shit like that, but I was like,
where it came from?
And I don't even, that's how I get by, you know I don't even get in the sh** like that.
I feel like they don't want you to grow.
I feel like you know after the bigger picture, everybody saw a little baby in a different
light and they wanted more of that, but then they wanted you to do the street sh** too.
Yeah it's like giving a take, you know what I'm saying?
To the point where I kind of understand it.
And what I mean by that is like I ain't,
like I really didn't ever take them with me to transition,
you know what I'm saying?
So like a transition, I don't expect some people though,
some fans can't jump to it.
Like you know, sometimes you gotta like dumb it down.
How do you take them through the transition though?
Do you do it through like interviews?
Do you do it through music?
That's the part I'm learning right now? Mm-hmm. I'm saying like that's what I'm trying to
Mash it just give me a fan experience. I'm saying cuz of course it whatever I'm doing as I'm doing it
I know what I'm doing. I know I'm changing but if I just drop a song or if I just do something
You don't know what I didn't with you. You don't know the change
So I can't even expect you to be up to speed like whatever so I just try to look at it from that aspect
The tricky about that though is if they want you to be in the street, but then when you crash out
They call you stupid. Yeah, so I don't get so I always know I was gonna get up get caught up in it
I'd rather sit it out. I got me
Be involved in it. Mm-hmm
So you pose you posted that the last couple of
years you've been struggling life-wise maybe even mentally so where you at now? I'm in a better
state but like still and then when I say stuff like that well I don't even use to say stuff like that
but I mean like far as like that type of you. You know what I'm saying? That's like a big transition in your head for you to go from like where I went to like
where I'm trying to go.
And it was like at that turning point in the last two years from being this shit and then
they speak or whatever to trying to, you know what I'm saying, actually go the right path.
You know what I'm saying?
That's like a real mind-boggling thing.
What was it for you?
Was it a dollar amount you saw? Was it the company you was keeping?
Like what made you realize like I got a little bit of everything. Even when I was doing shit I always lived like I don't got nothing to lose.
Like now I got so much to lose this shit is not the same anymore. What you been going through though?
Like what have you been going through that made you kind of like just fall back a little bit?
Say everything like people like getting trouble around you, you start seeing people don't really love you for real or people might be just coming and do the craziest things to get a few dollars at you.
You starting to like, at first when you first going through it, it's all new so it's like a blur to you.
And you kind of start catching on and after a while you're like
Damn, I see what's really going on. Mm-hmm
Is this why we haven't got a lot of music out of you over the last few years?
Definitely because I rap about like I ain't really no writer, you know, I freestyle so it's like all in my head
You know what I'm saying? So in my head I ain't in the right mental space. I ain't gonna be able to just rap like that
Do you feel like
Musically you're vulnerable enough?
That's one of the critiques I hear a lot.
She's not learning with that.
Oh, that's me.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
From the way I've been explained, maybe not.
You know what I'm saying?
I can understand why that was more what I was just saying.
Like, if you don't take them on a journey,
they kind of be kind of lost a little bit.
They don't even really know the aspect of you saying something, doing something.
Cause when I talk to people they tell me that they want to hear more pain in Lil Baby's
music and it sounds like behind the scenes you going through that.
Yeah.
But you must not put it in the music.
Yeah cause I had to learn how to like translate what I actually going through into the music.
You know what I'm saying?
When the goddamn music the reason why I think even going through these
They want to hear more emotionally scarred I think like yeah, are those records hard for you to make?
You just don't want to expose yourself in certain ways You know I'm saying yeah, not that I don't want to just I'm accustomed to not doing it. No, it's also
It's like, you know, you can even finish every now and then
I'm accustomed to not doing it. You know what I'm saying?
It's like you can eat a fitness every night, then
****ing just always in that fitness, you know?
You think that's like the protective instinct
that you just carry with yourself from being in the street?
Like if you show too much of yourself,
you might be fooled to people.
That's when the walls come up.
For sure.
Alright, we got more with Lil Baby when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club, good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club.
Now Charlamagne sat down with Lil Baby.
Ah, this is part of his Outta Context series on YouTube.
Let's get into it.
I think after Bigger Picture,
people expected you to evolve into a more mature artist
and just make music that reflected
like more of the pain you may be feeling.
Is that what you were looking to do with 5AM and Insecurities?
Nah, I'm looking to do that with like the Dumb and Eat album, right?
Okay.
I'm dropping the album first called like Wham.
Wham.
That's kind of like trying to lead them up into it versus just like jumping into it.
What is Wham? Wham gonna be more street music or?
Yes, in a sense, but I still put like some of the songs that were going on the Dumb and Eat album on were going to dummy out on when because I just wait for long and I know like you
said I got a cool audience for like those emotions car tight songs those
pain tight songs for Dominique is gonna be like personal like you have more
personal yeah does that scare you not no more but like that's the part of two
years what I've been going through so I really then kind of went through the scary part.
You say on one of the records, you say,
can't be vulnerable who I'm going to talk to
when I'm going through it.
You can afford therapy, little baby.
All that money you making?
I ain't, I ain't, I'm firmly in therapy.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
Have you tried it, or?
Yeah, I mean, I haven't tried it personally,
but in a sense I have.
I got people who I talk to, you know?
I would play as a therapist, but I feel like everybody like regular people, so it ain't
too much a therapist can really do for you to just have an open ear.
But you being a celebrity and all that, it get weird.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, it's like who does the go-to guy go to?
You get what I'm saying?
Yeah.
That's why I've always been like ain't saying
I'm against every round. I don't even cross my mind
Who do you talk to certain people about such stuff?
Yeah, I'm saying I know I can tell him about this I'm like a time to help out
It's like some people start stuff another line
You say how you manage to get everything you wanted was still a happy right this is like more money. No problem
You know that's it. Yes, it so it's like you would think once you get everything out of this you'll be like happy.
But boy, here goes something else. But it's a part of learning how life goes. You know what I'm saying?
It ain't gonna never stop. Are you happy now? I ain't happy as I want to be but I'm in a happy state though.
What makes Lil Baby happy at this point in his life? That's how I know I ain't happy is I want to be because I don't know. Damn, I mean you're kids. Yeah, definitely like joyful for them.
Is all of this what you thought it was gonna be? Like just the success that you
was eating? I ain't never know what it could be so I ain't think of nothing. You know what I'm saying?
Like I ain't never had an imagination for it. Do you never dream to this at all? No.
So when you was in the street and then you started
rapping, you even just looking around
Atlanta and looking at all the successful artists
that come from Atlanta. See I know what I did was, but I didn't know
what really big was.
I never know nothing about the
real music industry and like
I couldn't think I could get, be worth
what I'm worth now, reach the levels I
I didn't even know that really existed. I didn't think I could get, be working for what I'm working now, reach the levels I, I ain't even know that really existed.
I ain't know nothing about platinum and gold and album sales and
the end of new things screams and I ain't never know nothing about that.
So even me saying like, I knew I was gonna be big or I couldn't even,
I wouldn't even know what that was to even think that.
Yeah, I forgot what record it was but you said you got all of this,
basically PTSD from all of the all of the shootouts and stuff that you've been through. Did you think that once you got
into the industry like that would kind of go away like you kind of escaped that? Yeah but it's crazy
because it's like that's what I would say to people you put yourself on the bigger scale now that you're
in the industry. I say I didn't even have problems when I before I was a rapper. The more you get bigger though you get bigger
than everybody though. Not just the fans, not just the girls, not just the kids
everybody included. Was it a hard transition for you?
Are they still? I'm like almost all the ways. I didn't transition all the way
like I would never leave hell ever. I live in a whole other state so I didn't transition all the way. Like I would never leave hell ever. You know what I'm saying?
I live in a whole other state.
So I didn't transition all the way,
but it's still that time where, you know what I'm saying?
It's like, they're f***ing with you a little bit.
Where'd you get the name Wham?
I know I stand for who harder than me,
but where'd you get that name from?
From like Wham Wham, Wham Bitch on the Baby.
Okay.
One of my guys just started calling me Wham,
and everybody started calling me Wham.
Doug said what Wham says goes, then you put it up on Billboard.
What did that post mean to you when he posted that?
I mean it was just like a little insider.
His dad said that he got at you once for not going to Thug's court dates.
He didn't say anything.
You said...
That's how you felt about that?
Yeah, for sure.
What's the relationship with you and Thug?
Now I know he's on the new album.
We got a good relationship, same relationship we been.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Is it hard to make music because he's under so much scrutiny
and I know the lawyers probably looking through all the music.
It's crazy, he's super talented, you know what I'm saying?
So, really like he do what he is.
What's the relationship with you and Gunnar right now?
I don't got no relationship. The internet says you can't make hits without Gunna.
So do you think y'all will ever make music again?
They don't even say anything. You know how many hits I got?
Absolutely. So that don't even make sense.
How much do you pay attention to the internet?
Like I only see what I gotta see. You know what I'm saying?
And I try my best to just keep going
like that, I don't feed into that.
I don't read comments and all that.
Some shit just be the headline, you gotta see it.
You know what I'm saying? But for the most part, I don't even
get into shit like that.
I know Thug says what Wham says goes
but if Thug says, hey
I'm gonna get in the studio, I'm gonna make some music with Gunna
baby, I want you to participate, would you?
I don't see what happened.
Nah, I'm just saying, like, I want you to participate.
I don't know what nobody else will do,
you know what I'm saying?
But just as far as me, you know what I'm saying?
You dropped the 350 record,
and you said, I ain't never saying nothing about it,
but you know you was a rat,
and everybody thought you was talking about.
But everybody, it's just the internet where they gonna
create how I talk about rats.
And every song I had since I started rapping.
So now you gonna be like, they just created a narrative
and go out my door, I don't need to be talking about it.
So I'm a rat, you know what I'm saying?
What was your reaction when you heard Kendrick
mention you and Not Like Us?
You said Lil Baby helped you get your lingo up in reference to Drake. What'd you think when you heard that?
I ain't really into that side of hip hop.
But you and Drake always had a good relationship. Drake helped you a lot.
Great relationship. So you know you're kind of like, it's just with any situation like, if you and him was arguing, what the hell you gonna say? But, yeah. Right.
Like don't bring you in it.
Yeah, man, I don't be having nothing to do with it.
I got, I be having,
not saying whatever they got going on ain't real or nothing,
but I be, like I feel like,
to me like rapping might work.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like, I don't want that type of shit to work.
You know what I'm saying?
That's what like, even you saying like,
what's your relationship with Gunna?
I ain't, I ain't hearing,
I ain't in it for that type of shit.
I ain't on it.
Well I brought that up just cause of the music. The music aspect of it.
Cause you know people, y'all made hits together.
And some people want that again.
Right.
Alright we got more with Lil Baby when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Lil Baby.
Charlamagne got a chance to sit down with Lil Baby.
This is part of his Outta Context series.
Let's jump right back into it.
Well, one thing I loved about your documentary, man,
is it just shows, you know, how much you mean
to the city of Atlanta.
So when you have a city that loves you that much,
do you ever feel like you can just completely,
completely let it go?
Like the street aspect of it.
Because you can't be that person no more.
It's just like, just different aspects of it.
You know what I'm saying?
I still be that person who donate millions
to the neighborhood.
You get what I'm saying? But that don't mean I gotta be hanging in the neighborhood. You get what I'm saying?
But that don't mean I gotta be hanging in the neighborhood.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's like I'm still feeding the streets one way or the other.
You know what I'm saying?
It's just I got a different way of going about it now.
Do you think it's a culture shock when they see you
like out with the Michael Rubens of the world?
Yeah, for sure it's a culture shock.
But that's more like me being vulnerable.
Like you couldn't even imagine the type of shit you'd be on.
You know what I'm saying? I don't just hang with hanging with people ain't one of them cuz you got this idea. I'm a whole man
I'm saying he actually gave me a game really had like real conversations
You can like talk to somebody on a high level about like questions it will be known
I said, maybe no one and I think what the streets don't understand is when you got relationship
So you be you say what in this and they're streets
That is that is very true
That is very true
But so what the internet don't understand and when you around people like that you get in game
Probably getting more money and that you're able to give back to the streets even more
This how we do it
That's right
You know what I'm saying?
But I understand that the internet want to know that
And I also don't break it down for them to know that either
You know what I'm saying?
So I take it with a grain of salt
Like I can see why they're saying it
Because I already know I have to dump it all the way down for them
You understand?
You got to be a cold mother******
****
I be doing
You know what I'm saying? I'm just far as a n**** I ain't telling you You down for them to even understand. You gotta be a cold mother- I be doing, you know what I'm saying?
Just as far as a nigga, I ain't telling you.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't understand why they just don't,
they don't respect actions.
You know what I mean?
Like they don't see it.
You gotta dumb it down.
You gotta see it, what it is.
And you don't do that directly.
They go with whatever they see directly.
Do you feel like you gotta tell them
every single thing you do for the hood though?
Like, hey. I don't even tell them. I thing you do for the hood though? Like, hey.
I don't even tell them, man.
I do the most.
I do the most.
The most, man.
I don't got a PR team behind it.
No none, no never.
I really, the most millions are here.
How do you handle raising a son
and co-parenting with somebody
who's also a public figure?
Oh, that's kind of hard.
You know what I'm saying?
Definitely.
Cause it's like you'll always be attached to that person.
You know what I'm saying?
Even if, even if it's just in today's time, other person don't even have to be in the
line.
Like they're going to automatically be if I had a child with them.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's like something I'm going to have to battle no matter what in a sense.
How, um, how you been able to keep your personal life private?
You know?
I just don't go on the internet. You to me like this I don't look at the internet is like my
fans and I look at it like the whole world like I can't get validation from
like comments and that type of stuff.
I don't function like that.
You do realize though the internet just be f***ing with you because you successful.
Yeah I don't get into it.
You know what I'm saying?
Because they don't f*** you up mentally.
Definitely.
Because they'll say one thing on the internet but then you go and perform in front of 30,000
people and everybody's singing your music word for word.
So who you supposed to listen to?
That's the only thing you gotta know what to weave in, what to weave out.
Sometimes the comments could be correct.
Sometimes people be saying,
could be correct. You know what I'm saying?
So you gotta kinda go for what you feel.
Get you a team around you.
Who can help you with those explanations.
What do you feel right now you should be doing?
In the studio?
Just musically? Like if you didn't have to listen to
nobody, not the streets, not the internet,
just what little babies want to do.
I always say nobody now.
Okay.
Nobody.
And I still listen to what people gotta say
just to see what they say.

You know what I'm saying, but once you listen to it
and you get 10 different opinions from 10 different people, it's like you go where it got you, you know what I'm saying? But once you listen to it and you get 10 different opinions from 10 different people, it's like
you go where it got you, you know what I'm saying?
Do you feel pressure to just release music because of the high demand that people have
for Lil Baby?
They always want new Lil Baby music?
It's like a good problem to have.
I don't feel no pressure though.
You said that in the record, in a minute, you said blood, sweat, and tears come with
each check. It ain't no way easy
So what's been the hardest part of your career so far?
everything
Just starting this career, you know saying I jump into a career kind of like big you know I'm saying
So I had to adapt from behind like I've been five years didn't got a hit
And I said I grinded five days and got a hit. That's a five days and got a hit. So now I gotta adjust it
This whole new lifestyle. I really know nothing about you. Tell me just like as far as being every multi-million
Already had a lifestyle like having money so that was the only good thing with just period people know you people take a picture you
You know, you can't go this way in public like
You hear yourself you see yourself everywhere. You know I said like this is super big We're asking but now it's business. That's I guess that's what you trying to show people like I'm doing business now
Okay, I love my family relate to it with it's still a business aspect of it
I said, I wonder if they would even understand.
They wouldn't.
That's why I won't try to press it tomorrow.
I understand that they wouldn't.
Know what I'm saying?
Is there certain things you want them to know though?
Like as far as your business is concerned?
Like I really want y'all to know I'm doing this.
And if y'all knew what I was doing, y'all would understand what we're doing.
I always tell the guys and s*** because they always want me to like clear this up with like
hell nah, say this, I feel like when it write for them to know, they're going to know.
And then I'm still going to look like the b***h in a way.
Like damn, the whole time you could have easily just told us, you know what I'm saying?
But I'd rather just, one day you're going to see.
It's inevitable.
Does it feel like you're able to be more vulnerable in your music or on interviews?
Or do you feel like you might write a book,
or was it the documentary?
Like what was it, what do you think makes you
be able to express yourself the most?
Right now it's just me forcing myself
to express myself more.
They can't answer anything you say,
but I just ain't gonna do it.
So right now I just, like, just ask you.
You know what I'm saying?
Like try to make it more vulnerable,
give people a different insight on your ****.
I just feel like that's your disposition, though.
Like, you've always been like that.
Like, I remember the first time
when people brought you to Breakfast Club years ago,
you just always moved like that.
So forcing you to do it, I don't know if that's possible.
Ain't nobody can't force me to do it,
it's just something I'm gonna gradually do.
Mm-hmm.
You know what I'm saying?
So when they come to you and say, man, you gotta make this kind of song, you gotta make that kind of song. Ain't nobody never can't do me to do it, it's just something I'm gonna gradually do. Know what I'm saying? So when they come to you and say,
man you gotta make this kind of song,
you gotta make that kind of song.
Ain't nobody never can't hear me with nothing like that.
It's just you.
No, they never can, you gotta make this kind of song.
I don't got that, I ain't never had that.
So if you feel it, then you'll go out there and do it.
Let's see.
That's it.
Yeah, that been a formula for me.
I got a 10 person camp, we'll build a song,
get a district, and it's just been like authentic for me. I got a 10 person camp and build a song and this is it
And it's just been like authentic for me. Mm-hmm
Well, man, baby keep doing your thing brother, you know, she's when who harder than me. This is it's like the fourth
Fourth tape in that series, right? Yeah
So it's gonna be just the last one. It's the last one

It's time to set it all.
So real, real, real quick before we get to this Benzino News, we just played the interview
between Charlamagne and Lil Baby and we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this
show.
And we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this show.
And we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this show.
And we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this show.
And we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this show.

And we were like, oh, I'm going to be the judge of this show. So real, real, real quick before we get to this Benzino
news, we just played the interview between Charlamagne
and Lil Baby.
And real quick, I wanted to go back to it because I want to
make sure that people caught this.
Baby finally told us how he was really feeling when it
comes to the whole Gunna snitch thing with the thug.
And oh my god, listen, y'all, we got the audio.
The internet says you can't make hits without Gunna.
So do you think y'all ever make music again? I'm in here. So I got absolutely so that don't even make sense
How much you pay attention to the internet like I only see what I gotta see and I try my best to just keep going
I don't feed it today. I don't read comments and all that
It's not just be the headline you gotta see I know I know thug says what wham says goes
But if thug says hey, I'm gonna get in the studio,
I'm gonna make some music with Gunna,
baby, I want you to participate, would you?
I don't see that happening.
No, I'm just saying, like, I want you to participate.
I don't know what nobody else will do, just as far as me.
You dropped the 350 record, and you said,
ain't never saying nothing about it.
You know you was a rat, and everybody
thought you was talking about.
It's just the internet where they're gonna create.
I talk about rats in every song
I had since I started rapping.
So now you're gonna be like, they just created a narrative.
I was like, oh my good.
Cause we ain't never hear him talk about that.
Yeah, Lil Baby and Yachty had a great conversation yesterday.
He was way more vulnerable with Yachty than he was sitting with me.
But we got into some things.
I thought what he said about Michael Rubin was interesting because he said um you know there's no
black people out here giving out the information like Mike like like Michael
Rubin is so it's not a race thing for him he's just going with information
that and I felt that I mean I thought that was interesting nothing wrong with
that but that'll be out that'll be out later today a couple hours out of
context on YouTube all right cool but right now Benzino addresses the unaliving rumors.
Yesterday 50 Cent shared a video of Benzino on the floor with a knife crying.
And the caption said, Benzino caught on video by his girlfriend Ashley Bell threatening
to unalive himself with a knife because she called the cops on him for allegedly beating
her.
Now this is how the video sounded. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Call him, please. No, I'm not. Give me the night. No, no, no, no, no.
No, okay.
Come on, come on, come on.
All right, listen, listen.
Why you laughing, baby?
I know we all probably, you know, y'all don't want to laugh because it's too early because
y'all don't know if he was really trying to un-alive himself.
No.
I feel like that happened before, though.
What you mean?
Didn't Benzino do this before?
What, with Benzino?
Yeah, didn't something like that happen before?
Yeah, he's always crying about something man.
Now he's cried before but I don't...
No, but I feel like this scenario happened before.
The same exact thing.
No, he was outside of a house crying or something like that before.
But it wasn't...
Because he couldn't get in.
Yeah, but it wasn't nothing about killing himself or anything like that.
I swear that happened before.
Now, 50 got this video from an Instagram page, it's called the Lionel B show, which originally
posted the video, and they posted this a week ago, and their caption was kinda similar to
50's but the difference between the captions was, the Lionel B show they say prayers up
the mezzino, we know 50 ain't about to pray for this man, given that they had beef in
the past, or whatever.
Now it's not even clear where the Lonnie B show got it from even with the backstory but
50 obviously he didn't care and he decided to amplify it.
We even tried to go and find Ashley Bell's page, his girlfriend or whatever but her page
is private so we couldn't get in because we wanted to see if her video had a different
caption because he claimed that it was a role for Tubi and
if so he'd taken Tubi to new heights or whatever.
This is what he said after he saw that he posted it.
Okay first and foremost I just want to let everybody know that I'm okay.
Second of all I want to let everybody know that that was a rehearsal for a Tubi movie.
My girl was helping me out, we was doing a script reading and that was a rehearsal for
a Tubi movie. That was a scene from a movie. I would never ever put my hands on
any woman. I've never done that in my life. That's for cowards. And I surely wouldn't
do anything to hurt myself. So shout out to all the people that was concerned, but I'm
okay. And I also want to let Curtis know good looking. Thanks Curtis for promoting me. Keep
on posting me. That's dope. I'm in that gym heavy bench in 315
What you doing Curtis? Anyways, happy holidays to all of stay safe. I believe
Yeah, you believed oh you believe it was a YouTube
It felt like it felt like you think all that
Don't even cry that good. You mean that was for Tubi yeah I believe that
okay you give your all in Tubi movies Jess I didn't see you rockin no I know I know
hey hey honey I got your bitch no that was not a movie that's not a Tubi movie that was
on BET plus okay that's what BET plus Tubi picked it up. Oh Yeah, Benzino do actual to be originals and listen y'all know I'm the to be expert
I've watched about six or seven films with with Benzino in movies
So no, he not capping about being the to be actor like he's like a list to be like to be wanted one of the a list
It's okay. However, if this is not really a movie, he gonna have to really make one
Because I felt like it's a real situation.
I mean, I'm just a one record singer.
But who would tape that though?
Like regardless if it was a 2B or not?
His girlfriend!
But like you would tape your, if it was true, you would tape your man crying saying he's
going to kill himself?
Well listen, listen, if he did beat on her, like you know, allegedly that's what he's
saying, you know what I'm saying?
I should need some type of proof.
Because you know, even though he said he's never done this before and all that we know we've seen people that say no
I've never died into anything in the videos come out. You know what I mean?
So this she said she wanted to have that for leverage like not just in case you do this again
And I'm really call the police next time I got this is like a trail
You know what I mean, so I believe that I believe with 50 is is a legend
You know I believe that did she say 50 is is a legend, you know
I believe that did she say benzino beta where did that come from? Where did everyone?
No, she didn't that if you if you were listening
No, the lotto be page they posted she they posted it like a week ago or whatever
But actually we try to find her page to see if she posted it
But her page is private so we can't get in but we know she recorded it It didn't just pop up in niggas camera rolls. She had to send it somewhere
Right, we don't know where she sent it whatever maybe her iCloud got hacked or whatever
But she recorded the video and people get self tapes all the time. No, I got Tyrese Django self tape
Really, please
The same level when it come to that.
Stupid.
I think he overdid it for Django.
That's why he ain't getting it.
Y'all gotta look at that.
It's on YouTube.
You too happy to be a slave, Tyrese.
You cannot do Django.
Yeah, absolutely.

My guy DJ Frosty will be providing the soundtrack so I'll see y'all tomorrow at Crystal in Orangeburg
1486 Chestnut Street but right now we're talking about Anderson County and there are some nefarious
things that play in Anderson County simply because scammers come in all shapes sizes and forms.
Okay? Scamming has no color. Scamming has no sexuality. Scamming has no religion. A wham bam thank you scam can happen at any moment and that's why you always got to have
your guards up because folks is always trying to get over and that's exactly what happened
with Justin Ray Donaldson. See he is now in jail for scamming senior citizens. The man
befriended a 73 year old woman, diabolical. This woman probably wanted a friend so bad because all
her other friends probably dead. So he established a relationship nothing freaky
Okay, he wasn't into you know, Jorin te folia. I think that's what they call it. Jorin te folia
That's an attraction to elderly ass. Okay, he wasn't into that
His role was similar to that of a grandson and this woman's husband died
So he was in a she was in a very vulnerable state and Justin saw the opening and slid in for the scam
Let's go to NBC News for the report, please.
An Anderson County man is under arrest after a deputy said he was...
he scammed a recent widow into believing she had dementia.
Deputies say 35-year-old Justin Donaldson established a grandson-like relationship
with a 73-year-old woman at a senior living facility.
According to deputies, after the woman's husband died,
Donaldson convinced
her to make him her power of attorney. Officials say the woman reported fraud this month. Donaldson
is charged with breach of trust.
Now, I'm not sure how dementia works. Okay? I'm not sure how dementia works in any way,
shape or form. I have no idea if people with dementia,
even though they got dementia.
So I don't even know how you can be convinced
that you have dementia.
Now what I don't understand is this woman has daughters,
according to the news report, okay,
who are her power of attorneys.
If this elderly woman went and told people,
hey, I wanna remove my daughter's power of attorney
over her affairs, wouldn't somebody call the daughters?
Then the daughters can intervene and say,
who the hell is Justin Ray Donaldson?
They just gonna allow this man to come in,
have her remove her daughters as power of attorney.
And he's just easily able to secure the woman's trust
and access to her bank accounts.
I don't get it.
He instructed her to take out a home equity loan
for home repairs, but instead went out
and bought a 2015 Chevy Tahoe for himself. Now, I know dementia causes a decline in someone's mental abilities but
this woman was able to understand everything Justin Ray Donovan was
telling her to do. She had enough cognitive abilities to know to take her
daughters off the power of attorney. She had enough cognitive abilities to put
everything in this man's name but she didn't understand that she was getting
scammed. Once again I don't know anything about dementia of course I have had people in
my family who have had it but hey do they know they got it and can somebody
just diagnose and convince you that you have it because that's what happened in
this case. I guess now that I think about it if someone is telling me I got
dementia and I can't remember ever having dementia then maybe I did forget
that I got dementia I don't know I just know it's a special place reserved in hell for someone like Justin Ray Donaldson I don't remember ever having dementia then maybe I did forget that I got dementia. I don't know.
I just know it's a special place reserved in hell
for someone like Justin Ray Donaton.
I don't know why we take advantage of elderly people.
That's like taking advantage of kids.
Okay, we act like we don't have grandparents.
Okay, great grandparents, older parents.
Hell, we act like we not gonna be old one day.
Respect your elders.
Okay, learn from the people who walked the path before you.
Respect them because someday sooner than you could ever imagine
You're gonna be an elder too if you blessed
Please let me ma give Justin Ray Donaldson the biggest he ha ha ha you stupid motherfucker
Are you dumb? How do you convince somebody they got dementia?
That's crazy. I don't know
That's crazy. My grandmother be trying to convince us she ain't got it. I'm like girl, stop playing.
So she's aware she has it? Yeah. She's aware she has dementia? Some people, yeah. People definitely knew what they got.
I don't know about the Alzheimer's people, but yeah, my grandmother knew she got dementia.
Because Gears mother didn't know she had dementia. She might mission times that she got it, but she definitely got it No, his mother didn't she didn't know she had no clue like she was everything was regular
So if there was a story she would tell a story over and over and over again
And she thought she was telling it for the first time she had no clue
Yeah, that's how it goes
But like did y'all ever tell did she tell her mother that she has it cuz you she didn't remember she got it
Yeah, she didn't remember okay. Well my grandmother is gonna get to that point
But it's still kind of like early for like they know she knows she got it. Yeah, she didn't remember. Okay. Well, my grandmother is gonna get to that point But it's still kind of like early for like, you know, she knows she knows she got it
If your grandma's anything like you she probably playing just yeah
You probably right yeah, whenever you don't want to do something all of a sudden you don't remember
All right, well, thank you for that donkey today.
Now when we come back,
Skills will be joining us.
Virginia's own mad skills, you know Skills.
Phenomenal writer,
ghost writer. He used to do the
wrap ups every year and we're going to talk to him next.
So don't go anywhere, it's Jess with the mess.
Happy holidays from my family to yours, because the holidays is here and it not come a bit
till next year.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast
Club.
We got a special guest in the building. Yes indeed.
We got the brother skills here.
What up man?
How you feeling?
How you doing my brother?
Same, it's different air freshener.
You know what I mean?
Just trying to keep it pushing.
Have you retired the wrap-up?
Do you have to do like, because you got to break it, I mean the year is a little easier
but it's just ditty, but do you do the wrap-up still?
I haven't done the wrap-up since like I think the last one was 2022.
So two years. So yeah like two years I stopped after like two years I think I did the last
one over like Hoes like Encore I promoted it as like the last one and then after that
I just I had a chill December like that song used to take up so much of my life at the
end of the year bro I ain't get to do Christmas shopping or go you know I mean put up the tree nothing. You gotta go from
January all the way like all the eventful things that happen oh you you
gonna have to do this shit this shit is crazy. People say that every year though like you
gotta do one this year and I'm like actually I don't. Did you and Uncle Murda have real issues over that?
Nah nah nah it was just Like it was just fun
It was you know, I mean like I've never I never ran into murder and not and even if I did we probably but
We'll just look at each other started laughing. You know, I mean like I know he a character and that's what he do
Magic beefing over a wrap-up y'all should collaborate and do one that's you know, who said that first clock can't really
was the first person that said that and
Actually this year after you know clock Clark passed I did think about it.
You know what I mean?
Like that he asked me to do that.
You know what I mean?
In 2018 I was super stubborn, still battle rap mode.
I was like, nah I'd never do that.
But then after Clark passed I actually thought about it.
Y'all still got time.
Y'all got your murder.
I just ain't gonna rap as long as him. I'm three minutes in and out. Attention spans too short.
Myrna gonna go 15 minutes. I ain't rapping that long for nobody.
Congratulations to for being nominated for a Grammy Award for best spoken word, poetry album.
Thank you.
What is that? That is a stupid question, but to you as a rapper, rappers are poets.
What is the difference between poetry and rap,
at least from the Grammy perspective?
Once you take the music out, you know what I mean?
It's poetry, you know what I mean?
I feel like all MCs are poets.
So the Grammy had it in a category before,
where it was a lot of other things happening
in the same category.
So maybe like a poetry album or a spoken word album would be in the same category as like
if somebody reading a children's book.
And shout out to the brother J.I.V.E.
J.I.V.E. who won last year.
He kind of advocated for it and let them know like yo this is different.
We shouldn't be competing against Barack Obama reading his book like we ain't go that's not spoken word
So he pushed forward to be its own category now it stands on its own and I got nominated this year
So it's why it's crazy. Who you going up against? It's me. I want to say Malik Youssef
Omari Omari got one. I can't remember who else is in. Omari Harwood? Yeah, Omari Harwood got one
Oh Queen Sheba and an amazing artist named tank for my tanking
The bankers how many how many times you've been nominated for Grammy?
I got nominated once as a writer when we did the Nikki album the pink print in 2015
But I think we lost the Kendrick that year, but this is the first time I ever been nominated as mad skills
Now you got to say exactly because people are gonna take them like you
nominated as Mad Skillz. Now you got to say exactly because people are gonna take them like you wrote for Nikki. I ain't nobody ever wrote for me. I wrote a hook. I wrote The Night Is Still Young and I did that with like Tyronn,
Estadine, like it was like three of us. Nikki, Nikki write all her bars. Okay. All her bars.
Salute to Nikki. Did y'all win? Y'all didn't win that year. No, we lost. I think we lost to K-Dot that year. K-Dot.
So. What would winning the Grammy mean for you? Oh man listen listen, it would change my life and just for the creatives in Virginia, man, who
are doing their thing and just pushing the culture forward.
We always talk about Philly and VA as being like the red-headed stepchild in the music
industry, you know what I mean?
But we collaborated a lot, so it would mean a lot, man.
This is probably my most personal project today
I ain't never been this person in my music and I almost wasn't even gonna put it out
Wow, and my wife was like no you should you should really put this out and I was like bass too personal
Like I don't you know, I'm like I don't need everybody know my business
Like so to be rapping for 30 years and then the first time I really get personal vulnerable on a project
You get nominated for a Grammy. Crazy.
What made you want to do a poetry album versus a traditional hip-hop album,
especially saying that you was getting so personal?
Right, I started it and when I started it, the first two songs was like raps,
but they were so, I was moving like, and I was like, I gotta slow this down.
I want people to be able to digest it. So I tried it another way and then once I
started sending the song around
They're like friends. They was like yo
Nah, keep going and the song I'm the album is called is seven number ones and it's about
Seven things that happen in my life that literally changed the direction of my life
Hmm
So the first song was like my parents meeting the second song was when my mom used to play music around the house my first
Love, you know, I mean, my first daughter being born, so it's all first and that's how the album came about.
Is Erma and Bernard is about your parents?
My parents, yes.
You got your grandma featured on it?
Yes, which is crazy, so if I win a Grammy, like my grandma will get, you know what I
mean, a participation plaque.
So to be at 97 years old, you know what I mean?
So yeah, I used to sit down with her and I never
knew how my parents met so I would just had a phone and just throw it down and
record her just so I could go back and listen to it later and um I put it on
the album and it's like the hooks so my grandma is actually featured on the
first song. Isn't that the crazy thing how much we don't know about our parents?
Yes. They had a whole life before us but we don't even ever sit down and talk to
them about it. Yes man it was It was therapeutic for me to learn because my mother died of a drug overdose,
like a heroin overdose, like when I was like 33 maybe. So it wasn't until like American
Gangster came out and I watched it and I remember seeing them going back and forth bringing the
work from Vietnam and my stepfather, I mean my father went to Vietnam. So I made the connection like damn my father was the person who turned my mom on to that.
And they died 30 years later, like to the day.
So it was just weird but to not have that but then to realize it later.
So yeah man it's a real thing.
That album is crazy.
It's definitely very introspective and vulnerable.
And then it's also very personal the track track about your parents, because how they passed,
it's true that they both died from drug overdose?
Yeah, yeah.
Both died from a drug overdose.
And when I was little, they'd be like, oh, you know, your father died from a heart attack.
But then later on as I got older, they was real with me and they told me what happened.
Yeah.
And was this the most emotional track to record?
That one and the one about my daughter.
Like I literally sat, you know, I played my daughter's songs all the time.
Like I posted a video the other day like of her getting in the car and I wanted to play
her the song.
So as soon as I get in the car, I play her the song.
I'm going to play the song.
She's like, yo, I said I want to play you something.
She said, did you do a wrap up?
And I was like, nah.
I said it's kind of a wrap up, but I was like when I first
I was 19. Yeah, I was 19. I was 19 years old. I was scared
I know what to do. I mean so to see her now as an adult and and to be able to flourish in life
That's all you want for your kids. She's 31 now
Yeah, so we sat there come in and I'm a cryer. I'm a cry about my kids
So soon as the glasses came where I was like, oh, I know you about to cry
And I'm like man listen if it's something I'm gonna cry about it's gonna be my kids
We got more with skills when we come back as the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody is DJ envy Jess
Larry's Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with skills
You still goes right not as much as I used to um, just cuz the music now is a little different
I mean I can get in that bag easy, but the calls don't come as much from the younger
artists because they want to keep all of their publishing and all of their...
I still get calls from some of the OGs, but I just put the pen to the paper.
Is it still an unwritten rule that ghostwriters aren't supposed to talk about who they wrote
for?
Because it's not taboo no more for people to have...
I mean, yeah, it's not really...
I don't, but I make more money when they ain't nobody talking
about ghosts right you know I mean so and and the people work with me they
know most of the time I just ain't gonna throw them out there under the bus for
no reason but sometimes people just know about it they be like oh I know you wrote
that earlier this year I did a show in Virginia and I actually performed a song
that I wrote and then it was in like a McDonald's
Campaign like maybe like a month later people's like oh you wrote that and I was like I've been wrote that yeah
You know I mean I feel like a lot of rappers these days a lot of younger rappers
They feel like they lose credibility if somebody if they if it gets out there that somebody is goes writing for them
Yeah, I mean sometimes you just in the studio and it's just help like yo, what if you say it like this?
Yeah, you know me like even like for instance my homeboy KP KK Peter great. Um, he ended up on Kendrick's
All right, only because Pharrell was like, you know, we gonna be all right and he was like, yo
I think you should say it like we gonna be all right
He was like really he was like, yeah, it just sounds slick in that way. You got writing credit, got a Grammy.
Like, he just told him how to...
Something as small as that.
Something as small as Pharrell saying it one way. And Pharrell
being, you know, in sound mind and body going, yo, KP told me
to do that. He's owed some credit off that.
Oh, that's why. Because most people wouldn't have did that.
That one, they would have said, nah, I said, I'll wait with a
game, a little check.
You know what I mean? But that's the thing about it.
To be able to be in a room and collaborate with your friends, you know what I mean?
And make something dope with your family and your friends, you don't care about the credit.
Because like Quincy Jones always said, when y'all start talking about money, God leave
the room anyway.
I agree.
We ain't here talking about something that we ain't even made no money over yet.
Like, what's the point?
It stops the creative process. How did you get the opportunity to write
Jay-Z's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction?
That came from Questlove.
He called me and he asked me,
it was weird how he said it.
I was in a barbershop, I picked up the phone,
he was like, yo, when did you stop listening to Hov?
I was like, what?
Sup y'all, this is Questlove,

They won't let you succeed.
I know we get paid to serve you guys,

He was like, when did you stop listening to Jay-Z?
I was like, what you mean?
He was like, I heard you say before, like back in the day, like you would be able to
hear Jay-Z verse or line, or you could just quote it.
Like, when did you stop?
And I was like, I said, maybe the last thing I might've checked out was like 4-4-4.
You know what I'm saying?
He was like, all right, cool.
I need you to do your thing but the way you do it like
wrap-up style but with like all of the quintessential Jay-Z lines you know I
mean like I will not lose and you know I mean all of this stuff so I was like
alright cool and he was like and I needed in nine days Wow and I was like
wait what he was like I needed in nine days he was I'm about to pitch it to
Beyonce because at first Beyonce was supposed to do the whole thing. I think it was Beyonce's
idea to have different celebrities say different lines. So once I started writing it, we started
going through the entendres of who would say each line. So that made it even doper for
somebody to say a line that was you know
Textbook with them so having like Will Smith say, you know, no more big Willie my name You know, I mean like those type of lines and then even having David Letterman say
The CBS line I keep one eye open like CBS
That was the hardest part of the whole thing and and David Letterman was like, yo
Yeah, this the line y'all want me to say like I just it don't feel cool and we like yo if you say this line it's
gonna be the dopest line in the whole thing and it was and then to have blue
at the end say the ghostwriter line like it was just dope man and he hit me
afterwards he didn't have my number he just hit me afterwards and thanked me and I was
just like wow like you wake up to a text from ho saying that was dope like thank you like that was crazy
He didn't have your number. He did cuz he asked quest love for oh
I mean like billy billy in that hole. I had that number. Yeah, I mean I had
2,000 you know me but shot the jay-z man. No, I was about actually about the documentary you dropped on YouTube
Oh, yeah
90s girl brunch I did a arm
on YouTube. Oh yeah. Nineties girl brunch. I did. During quarantine I did a stream kind of like the nice was doing but I accidentally created a sorority of women that still stick
together to this day through a stream. You know what I mean. And I made a film about
it and put it out and these are women from all over the world all over the United States
and they still link up to this day and and they call it the Brunch Club.
And it's just dope, man, to be able to connect people
to music, and what we was going through on COVID was hard,
but people like D-Nice and Jazzy Jeff and myself,
we was online DJing, and those people still stuck with us.
He'd still do club quarantine concerts and whatnot.
So it's people that was attached to that
and are still attached to it to this day. So I made a documentary about it. So it's artists?
No no no it's it's I was just playing songs but the women that were on there they
they accidentally started becoming friends so now they go on trips together
they go to you know I mean they go to New Orleans the Essence Fest together
it's like like 80 of them you know I It's crazy. So it's a dope movie
I throw it on YouTube and if you ever want to see the story you could check it out on there
It's called Mad Skills and the 90s Girl Brunch.
Why you haven't written any like TV shows or movies and stuff like that?
So listen after the wrap-up, you know what I mean? I'm chilling and I'm watching y'all. I was watching y'all and um
My wife ended up saying she wanted to watch this show and the show called Supercell
so we started watching Supercell and I'm looking at the show and I'm like Rap Man.
I was like why do I know that name babe?
She was like I don't know.
We watched the first episode I was like yo this is dope.
I was like Rap Man.
I was like why that name just sound familiar.
We watched the whole show and I kept seeing created and written by Rap Man.
So I seen him on the breakfast club and I'm like,
oh, that's the dude that did the show.
Like why I feel like I know him.
Yo, why I went and searched his name
and he used to do the UK rap up for like 10 years.
So he was doing rap up.
I think he said that.
When he was up here, he said that.
So I DM'd him and I was like, yo bro,
I checked your show out, man.
Like, you know what I mean?
I think it's dope, great work.
I said, I remember you from back in the day, you used to do the rap. He was like, oh man, skills. I bet your old shit's dope great work I said I remember you from back in the day you should do the rabbit he was like oh man skills I
bet you oh I'm sorry man I took me I used to do the UK budget man it's
amazing to have you in my DMs when I was like yo it's crazy but that accent on
like that I was like it's crazy to go from writing rap ups to writing shows
and I tell my wife that she like yeah it is. I definitely got some ideas I pitched some shows shout to like James
Samuel and um we got some things in the work Black Thought you know Questler
215 Entertainment like I got some I definitely got some things that could
make it to television. It only makes sense if you like that's the next the
next level for you. Yeah yeah I got like at least three shows that I'm trying to pitch.
One I've already pitched, two more is like movies.
So yeah.
Well the album is out right now, it's streaming.
Now it says something about voting.

She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could
get you to see.
It's time to set it all.
Alright, so we back with the Benzino.
We spent in a block because we got some updates.
So in the last hour we talked about Benzino crying with a knife in his hand and the video
that 50 reposted from a blogger, Lionel B. And the caption was basically, 50's caption
was Benzino caught on video
by his girlfriend Ashley Bell threatening to unalive himself with a knife because she
called the cops on him for allegedly beating her. Now, Charlamagne, you asked me, did the
girlfriend herself confirm that Benzino be putting his hands on him? Well, Lionel B,
who originally broke this video, I mean, yeah, broke the video a week and a half ago, he
spoke on it and how it all happened.
All right, so there was a video I posted on Instagram,
probably about a week and a half ago,
a video of Benzino in a compromising position.
He has a weapon in his hand
and he's threatening to basically to unalive himself.
Wow.
And he's also fake crying on the video as well
and saw it because allegedly he was beating on his girlfriend and she recorded him and then with that video
She ended up sending it to her best friend like look girl
You know women talk like look girl like crazy. You know, he doesn't he doesn't want to go to jail and all that
So right good thing she reported him
So they sent me the sent me the email of the video and I was like, hey
She was like, can you post this, you know, cuz I'm tired of my friend being abused she needs to get justice right right is
really cool he's always having her do zesty things with X toys and all that on
him Jesus you know what I tell y'all what I tell y'all I said that ain't no
way it disappeared in niggas camera roll like nah she sent that that's like a
she keeping that for like
remember that's my ass
situation yeah and that and that's straight manipulation and it's nothing
it wasn't gonna kill itself at all but so it wasn't a manipulation right there
no it wasn't a given to me but what we know is what we know he probably still
don't be shocked if we still see a movie come out later on with this man
Reenacting the same thing just to show his ass somehow. He absolutely
Absolutely, hey, we ain't gonna him say nothing else about it. We just gonna see a TV movie You know, they make TV movies in 24 to 48 hours. So it might come out, you know before Christmas. We own that, you know
But I said that it is just same too real. Yeah
We don't know, you know, but I said that it just seemed too real. Yeah, he allegedly be beating on shorty.
She got tired of it.
She recorded the video to have a trail of it, sent it to our best friend.
They sent it.
They emailed it to Lionel B.
So that is that is what happened with that.
All right.
Moving forward.
Uh, Yachty and Lil Baby.
So we played some of Charlamagne's out of contact interview with
Lil Baby earlier today.
Another part I liked, um like from the sit-down
Which you charlotte and y'all talked about his relationship with Drake and Drake mentioning
Him during the beat no Kendrick mentioned little baby during the beef with
With little baby as we said what was your reaction when you heard Kendrick mentioned you and not like us
He said little baby helped you get your lingo up in reference to Drake what you think when you heard that I
really like this side of your part but you and Drake always had a good
relationship I mean great help you a lot great relationship yeah so you know you
kind of like the issues with any situation like you and him was arguing
what are you gonna say but don't bring you in I got I'll be having not saying
whatever they got going on in real in there
Well, I'll be like I feel like to me like rep
I'm saying like oh
That's what I even you saying like wish relationship with gun. Hey, I ain't here in it for that type
Why bought that I'm just just just cuz of music music aspect of it cuz it. Because y'all made hits together. And some people want that again.
Yo, how did you understand anything that this young man said to you?
I speak a nigga fluently when I want to. But look, it's not an after-miss out.
It's the difference between a regular nigga and an Atlanta nigga.
Like, he... that's different that
is different I don't know which party from I cannot understand this man
basically with the Kendrick situation he was like yo my name Bennett so you know
I'm not in it don't be bringing me in your beef if you got beef with another
person then you handle that on your own don't use my name or anybody else's name
to you know yeah yeah your point. Yeah.
You think Kendrick cared about that?
No.
No.
Absolutely not.
But I definitely understand.
I know Lil Baby and Drake got a good work relationship so I know Kendrick really don't
care.
Anyway, Lil Baby also sat down with Lil Yachty on Lil Yachty's podcast called A Safe Place
and they spoke about the viral picture that everybody was making fun of Mike Rubin hugging little
baby from the back and
About that even the whole Mike Rubin thing. I don't play with n****s period. No funny weird s***
I'm dappin' Kuzmin up and Mike's happy to see me. He run up on me. I got 10 other pictures
We down there we start down there bad. I'm telling his ass. I got sling your ass in your neck
I break your neck and we play like that like even when the picture came out before it went viral
I told on like Mike I can't have pictures like that even though man you playing but it's a hundred
People at the party we in the middle a hundred people is nothing weird
We could be doing in a party right with all these people watching us
But I know how smart people brains is and then I already be knowing how much of people
wanna say something bad to me.
When that picture came out, I literally made Mike Rubin
go to his security camera in his house,
go to the footage and get the whole time,
all that type of shit like that really bothered me.
Well, the person to be mad at is the cameraman,
because camera people always trying to catch
them casual action shots.
Stop with them little casual action shots, okay?
If I ain't posing for the picture, don't take it.
Yeah, but you know the problem is,
is when people get mad at stuff like that,
it makes it worse, right?
We see it with Lil Baby, we see it with Meek Mill.
Meek Mill.
But if you make fun of it yourself,
people, they can't do anything about it.
Like, Mike Tyson always, there's always a video
of Mike Tyson saying, I'll kiss you in the mouth.
Nobody laughs at that, nobody jokes about that. Charlamagne always say Charlamagne has the gayest things to see first of all. Yeah, why why why you bring me?
The truth is the truth you say you got gay ears you say you got gay eyes
I got gay ears meaning that I can hear gay. Okay, what does that mean?
Yo, but but I don't I don't care if Mike Tyson tell you he gonna kiss me him up
Let that man kiss you by the way that's the PG version what envy was in Mike Tyson did not say that Mike Tyson said I know
You tell you love me. I want to say that on air
No, but all in auto little baby did bring it back around to explain why his relationship with Michael Rubin actually helped to elevate him.
He don't just be hugging him from the back. Like he actually
Shut up!
So this what he said?
They would think like, oh baby, Mike Rubin the billionaire.
I don't give a f*** what nobody got.
But he has been a great influence.
A super great influence. And that's the part that people wouldn't see.
Like, me and Mike Rubint we had the best conversations ever
He also like damn they're fascinated with the way I live and I'm fascinated with the way he lives
So we like meet in the middle all the black moguls and I don't say all cuz Swiss beats
He's the one he's one of the only one of the few so like I look for people like that
I like like back when I was a kid. I always wanted to hang with the people
who got more than me.
I don't wanna be hanging with the guys
who I gotta tell them all the time.
That's already my role.
So if I order me to stay sharp,
I gotta deal with other people who got more than me,
who already done did, who already done did some stuff.
I enjoyed the conversation.
We basically gatekeep information.
Yes.
That's what he's essentially saying. I guess.
Yeah, that's what he's saying.
Yeah, I enjoyed the conversation with Lil Baby
and Lil Yachty, and I think Lil Baby should only
do conversations with people that he's comfortable with,
like Lil Yachty, because he ain't open up.
He's opening up.
He ain't open up like that with me,
in no way, shape, or form.
But I enjoyed the conversation with Baby and Yachty
on a safe space podcast
absolutely yes with the mess hold up real quick swiss beast black like yes like you black swiss
beast black no y'all both of y'all questionable yo you envy and uh swiss beast i feel like y'all
