All right. I'm sure we'll be breaking that down in a little bit, so don't go anywhere.
Starting point is 00:04:07 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess and Larry. It's Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 00:04:15 And let's get in some front page news. Now, tonight in NFL, before we jump into the news, the Giants take on the Cowboys at 8-15. And WNBA playoffs. The Sun beat the Fever last night 87-81, and the Lynx beat the Mercury 101-88. Yeah, Kaitlin Clark is now out of the WNBA playoffs. I wonder if ratings are going to go down because of that. Because I'm, you know, I'm an Aces fan. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:04:41 I'm an Aces fan because I'm an Aja Wilson fan. And Liberty's still doing well. Yeah. They play, that's the next round. Liberty versus Aces. Yeah, people what I'm saying. I'm an Aces fan because I'm an Aja Wilson fan. And Liberty's still doing well. Yeah. They played after the next round. Yeah. Liberty versus Aces. Yeah. People will watch that.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Good morning, Morgan. Good morning. Good morning. Is it a good morning in New York? We'll start with breaking news out of New York for your front page. Why wouldn't it be? We not indicted. I'm at work.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Hey, well, let's get into it. Somebody's job. Somebody's black job is, you know, being threatened. Anyway, New York City Mayor Eric Adams, he is being indicted on federal criminal charges. We don't know what the specific charges are, but the indictment is expected to be unsealed by U.S. attorneys later today. And the charges are reportedly connected to money from the Turkish government that got into the 2021 Adams campaign. Now, let's hear from Mayor Adams. He responded to the indictment. Let's hear that audio from him.
Starting point is 00:05:27 These charges will be entirely false based on lies. I always knew that if I stood my ground for all of you, that I would be a target. And a target I became. Yeah, so Adams, go ahead. If it's illegal contributions from uh turkey or any other foreign country they'll be able to trace that they'll be able to chase that easy they'll just follow the money which shouldn't be that hard to find especially if he did it for his campaign so they'll definitely
Starting point is 00:05:54 be able to see that easily the feds don't come if they don't think they got something going on oh no they usually got something going on if they already came uh adams is now the first sitting mayor in city history to be charged with a crime while in office now he is claiming innocence and intends to fight the charges a word of this uh federal indictment has you know of course spread uh rapid fire so it has spread in a post on x aoc congresswoman new york congresswoman alexandria acacia cortez she noted the numerous investigations surrounding city officials she says she does not see how adams can continue to govern adding the flood of resignations and vacancies that are threatening government function
Starting point is 00:06:32 and uh he should and she's calling for him to step down she and other uh elected officials are calling for him to step down in a statement um uh well we we heard adam's statement but basically uh yeah. So we will continue to see what happened with that. I also noted that in recent I didn't want to speculate, but basically last week, the health commissioner resigned. And then days later, the school's chance chancellor resigned. So, again, that's usually a sign of a bigger issue. People want him. People want him to resign. But he said he's not going to resign.
Starting point is 00:07:04 I mean, I think the governor has power to actually take him out if she wanted to, but we'll see what happens. I mean, he's supposed to turn himself in next week. Yeah, it doesn't seem like charges stop people from running or being in office nowadays. You know, case in point, Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:07:20 So, I mean, you know, I don't know if he should have to resign or step down or not. I don't know. especially if he feels like he's innocent. And he's innocent until proven guilty. That's right. Yeah, that is very true. And I also will say when Mayor Adams was here last time, he said that and this is his words. He said that there is an attack on black mayors all across the country. When I look at him getting indicted, when I look at Marty Smalls in Atlantic City getting indicted, I can't help but wonder if there is something to that. I'm just saying there's a couple other cities he was talking about, too.
Starting point is 00:07:46 He named a few other cities. Now, Governor Hochul did say that she was aware of the situation, but she has not said anything else regarding that. So, switching gears. Meanwhile, the House and the Senate have passed a three-month funding extension that prevents the government shutdown. Yay! The bill would keep the government funded until December 20th.
Starting point is 00:08:07 House Republican leaders relied heavily on Democratic votes to approve the measure. It will not include new voter registration requirements that former President Trump and other Republicans had called for any spending bill to include. And President Biden is expected to quickly sign that into law speaking of president biden he said he would have been re-elected if he remained in the race and those he made those comments on uh during an interview on wednesday with the view on abc uh let's run that audio if you can i was confident i i would beat. I never fully believed the assertions that somehow there was this overwhelming reluctance of my running again. I didn't sense that.
Starting point is 00:08:54 He's delusional. Yo, I was just about to say, y'all be saying I'm delusional, but I think maybe it's a Delaware thing. It's a Delaware thing. It's definitely a Delaware thing. I'll take that one because even I know that and I don't even know no poll numbers, no nothing The problem is everybody around him and probably listening to certain media personalities say things like
Starting point is 00:09:12 I'll vote for him if he was a corpse I'd vote for him if he was dead. That's insanity right there. I don't think that President Biden had no chance in November if he'd have stayed in the race Well he said he's at peace with the decision. And, you know, that's pretty much that.
Starting point is 00:09:29 We can go ahead and wrap that up. But in the next hour, we will talk VP Harris, where she's at on the campaign trail, and of course where Trump is at on the campaign trail. And we're on Hurricane Watch as well. So we'll talk about that at 7. All right. Thank you. Everybody else, get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:09:42 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:10:00 We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's B-Mob from the Metro. How y'all doing today? 803, what's happening, my brother? Get it off your chest. All right, so I got a couple of things. Mayor Eric Adams does not look like a politician.
Starting point is 00:10:16 He looks more like a janky old-school club promoter. Man, shut up. He should have known. He should have known them people was going to get him. He should have known. He was never built for that position. So he should have never put him. Y'all just say that because he be in the parties all the time.
Starting point is 00:10:30 He don't look like no club promoter. Y'all know he look like he fry fish. No, no, that's the truth. And then for the second point, J.D. Vance, you gave him donkey of the day last week. He was talking about how he's just dumb. And I agree with you with all the things he says. Like, he's a white coon. Ooh, explain that.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Expound on what a white coon is. You don't hear that too often. He's just real ignorant. I think white people should look at him and realize he's bad for their race. He has no business being in that position either as the vice president. Just a real ignorant MF, like, across the board. Everything you put in that donkey of the day last week, that's what he is. And more. I agree with you, brother. All right. Everything you put in that donkey of the day last week, that's what he is, and more.
Starting point is 00:11:05 I agree with you, brother. All right. Thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? Yo, it's Keith from Brooklyn, you heard? Keith from Brooklyn, you heard? Yo, what's going on? Good morning, Envy.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Good morning, Charlemagne. What's good, Charlemagne? Peace, King. How you, brother? I'm good, brother. I can't complain too much, man. I'm at work. You know, God is good.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Yes, sir. Yo, what's good, Lauren? Good morning. Good morning, good morning. Alright, yo, I want to say this real quick about Mayor Adams. As a registered Republican, I just want to say I like what Mayor Adams has done for this city.
Starting point is 00:11:33 And I really believe this mayor is trying real hard. The reason why I'm not a Democrat is because, do you see how quick they are to eat their own? Do you see how quick AOC was quick to be like, he should resign. They did the same thing to Andrewrew cuomo bro i don't like that if that was a republican you see you see how donald trump he out here grabbing women by the vagina uh uh smashing porn stars and and the republican party is right behind him i agree so why can't they do the same
Starting point is 00:11:59 thing i agree like they like like one thing i will say about republicans at least with their own they really do move with the innocent until proven, proven guilty thing. And that's why I said earlier, it's like, yo, Donald Trump got all of these charges. You see other people with charges. You don't see nobody in their party asking them to step down, asking them to resign. So, you know, I don't, I don't know why we're so, I don't know why Democrats are so quick to do that. Hello, who's this? Good morning, everybody. This is Obioma. Hey, Obioma. Good morning. do that hello who's this good morning everybody this is obi oma hey obi oma good morning good morning so um lauren lauren is here yeah good morning lauren stop coming for charlamagne about he don't like black women he i don't know if i can do that no listen listen to me he has a beautiful black wife four beautiful daughters he was honored by power her last year, and he supported

Starting point is 00:14:18 And I know y'all had like Hillary Clinton on there. You had B-Vac, Mama Swan, all that good stuff. I think y'all need to get Kamala Harris to come up there right now and air her piece. You know what I mean? Because if we're going to keep it a buck,
Starting point is 00:14:33 let's get the community listening in and find out exactly what it is she actually needs to say so we can all be on the same page. Because I feel like a lot of people call y'all buyers because they're like, well, we think they with Trump and this, that, and another. Well, people call y'all buyers because they're like well we
Starting point is 00:14:45 think they with trump and this that another well i think y'all need to bring her up there and let's air it out and find out why we really need to vote for us well i'll tell you this my brother uh the vice president before she was vice president she was here in 2018 when she was a senator she was here again in 2020 when she was running for president uh i interviewed her on my tv show back in what was that, 2022, 2023 when she was vice president. So I'm sure she'll make her way here before the election.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Alright, cool. So why'd you try to get Trump up there then? We don't have no problem having Trump here either. His people have reached out. Oh, they did? Alright. Well, look, like I said, it's 2024. Let's go ahead and give them both an opportunity to come up there. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Let's take the air. A hundred percent. That's what I agree with. And yo, Solomon, I just want to say, I got all three of your books. I'm not calling you anything. I just want to let you know that y'all good with me, man. And I appreciate you, you know what I'm saying, sending all that good word out to the black community, man.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Thank you, King. I appreciate you, brother. Have a good one, brother. All right, bless up. You don't have a lot of politics you can't win on either. What do you mean? Like, if you had Trump here, people would be upset. If you bring Kamala here, people would be upset. You literally can't win, so you just gotta, like,
Starting point is 00:15:52 stay in the middle and let people have conversations about what they're gonna do, and mind your business, about what you're gonna do. Yeah, I think what people don't realize, though, is that, you know, when you talk about people like Trump, 70-plus million people voted for him a couple of times you know what i mean so that's a lot of folks like so it's like it don't matter like you know like like you
Starting point is 00:16:09 just said uh you're damned if you do you're damned if you don't so do you have some people who won't be pleased about it some people who not all we can do uh is our job that's right and our job is to provide a platform for who who wants it hello especially if they running for president yeah hello who's this? Yaya. Yaya, what's up? Get it off your chest, Yaya. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:16:29 I got a genuine question for you guys. I want to be educated. My question to you is, what exactly do you consider to be black? Your ethnicity or is it more the color of your skin? I think for me, it's the color of your skin. What do you mean? Let me ask you a couple questions.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Do you consider a dark-skinned Dominican to be... Your phone is breaking up. It's going crazy. She said, do you consider a dark-skinned Dominican black? No, they're Dominican. But in the eyes of society in America, if they present as black, they're going to be looked at as an a**hole.
Starting point is 00:16:59 It's more the ethnicity rather than the color of your skin. No, if you get the chance to have a conversation with a person and get to know that person but the way we present in this society if you're a dark-skinned person and you present as black you're going to get treated as such okay so what is what would be more considered black african this is a very difficult conversation all i heard was black african but i will say you know to me it's less the color of your skin because some people are white dominican no you's less the color of your skin because some people are darker skin. That's because you're
Starting point is 00:17:26 a white Dominican and you want to be black. No, shut up. Because some people are darker skin and they don't consider themselves black. Who?
Starting point is 00:17:31 Oh, like Afro-Latin? Nah, like, yeah. Like Dominicans. Some Dominicans, they don't consider themselves black. And they're absolutely right. Right.
Starting point is 00:17:37 But I'm black and I'm a lighter skin, but I'm black. No, you're white and Dominican. Shut up, I'm black. Don't do that. But to society, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:44 those people who are of darker skin and look like black people right they people don't know their ethnicity so in this society they still get treated you know because of the caste system like they're black right but like like what's the dude that played for for the knicks what's the dude to play for the knicks the tall dude that played for the knicks the tall dude that played for the black but that was the stupidest thing i ever heard in my life who's the tall dude that played for the knicks you know he knew that was all of them no I ever heard in my life. Who's the tall dude that played for the Knicks? He knew what I was about. All of them. No, but Hardenstein, he looks like a white boy.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Who? When you see him playing Hardenstein. Hardenstein. But he's black. His dad is black. But he looks like, if you just look at him, he looks like Isaiah Hardenstein. He looks fully white, but his dad's black. Isaiah Hardenstein is white?
Starting point is 00:18:19 I mean, black? Yes, his dad is black. I thought he was German. No, his dad is black. Look at his dad. I have a friend that's like this, too. When I first met her, I thought she was white. He looked white, white his dad is black. I thought he was German. No, his dad is black. Look at his dad. I have a friend that's like this, too. When I first met her, I thought she was white. He look white, white.

Starting point is 00:18:40 But what does he look like? I don't know, bro. I need a blood test. See? I don't know about this one, bro. See? I don't know about this one, bro. I don't know about this one, man. He's baby. Daddy's maybe.
Starting point is 00:18:49 He look white, white, white, white, but his dad is black. No, he look white, white. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I don't think y'all wrong about this one. Look it up. Look up his dad. I see what his daddy don't look black, black. But his dad's black.
Starting point is 00:19:02 His father was a German-American basketball coach and former professional basketball player of mixed African-American heritage. His mother is white, so his dad must be biracial as well. Correct. So what does that make him? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:14 It's too much. I don't know. I have no idea. All right. Honestly, I feel like it should depend on how well you can play spades. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:21 All right. I'm sure you don't even play Big Joker, Little Joker, Two of Diamonds, Two of Spades. Yes. Well, we don't use it Two of Diamonds, but we do do Two of't even play Big Joker, Little Joker, Two of Diamonds Two of Spades yes well we don't use the Two of Diamonds but we do do Two of Spades Big Joker, Little Joker

I be like, do y'all even know what that word mean? But now I really do see what's a narcissist. You know what's so crazy? I find this so crazy, right? That a nigga think that they could just buy a bitch. You know what I'm saying? I love me shit me but you can
Starting point is 00:21:46 buy it you can buy me no more mother and i and it's so crazy that i think that that's enough it's not enough honey it's just not enough and then cardi started to go into uh the fact that offset is according to her threatening court wars like she's starting to take stuff back um let's take a listen to that i just think that they could on anything but when i when i start talking to niggas you want to play those games with me we're gonna play them games too since you want to threat me take talking about you want to take my you want to take my because i'm moving on move on why can't you move on it's no fun when when mama got the gun right it's no fun when i'm slinging right now we now we're going to court war right get off my phone
Starting point is 00:22:32 i don't give a i'm tired so she said get off my phone because as she's on live somebody is calling her repeatedly because it keeps shutting the live off but i i was very confused because i'm like take your stuff cardi is like she got money she got bread she could buy her own stuff so i don't even know why that's like a conversation but they probably got stuff together you gotta think like land and property and homes maybe businesses yeah and she could get all that on her own if she wanted to so i don't know i would okay we're gonna get into the conversation of just the argument in general um but then she continues so then she starts talking about the fact that because now at this point everybody on twitter and you know and the internet is having a conversation about the fact that Offset has accused her of sleeping with someone while she was pregnant with his child.
Starting point is 00:23:12 So she goes into the having sex with the ops conversation. Let's take a look. I just want to let my f*** know one good s*** right. I don't give a f*** if a n***a talking about oh I'm going to expose you or I'm going to put them text messages that I saw through your phone. I don't give a f*** n*** a n***** talking about, oh, I'm going to expose you, or I'm going to put them text messages that I saw through your phone. I don't give a f**k, n*****. I will expose my own teeth. I don't give a f**k. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:23:31 You should be happy that I'm a real gangster-ass b**ch. At the end of the day, so one thing I'm not going to do to you ever is entertaining your opps that be in my DMs, trying to suck my b**ch. I will never do that because the opt to you is they want you dead and i don't want you dead because my kids love the out at you no i don't have to do that i just got better than you it was a lot yesterday it was a lot a whole lot and it continued into the comments um they got into the comments and uh she was talking about like you know to all set like you keep calling me and you was blocked all weekend you had to dm me he's like i already won you my you the baby mom like it was a it was
Starting point is 00:24:10 a whole it was nasty yeah i don't like seeing any of that play out over social media like you know these strangers don't need to be privy to any of that information you know call each other meet up and curse each other out like you know y'all are adults with kids like have that combo amongst each other because i feel like when the emotions wear off like today like the next day both of them got to regret airing each other out yeah you just have to yeah she said yesterday she wouldn't do it again and she was only doing this because she was responding to him and that you know she said the main reason responding oh so he went he went public first i guess he's been tweeting so he's been tweeting stuff um and f he his tweets were like earlier this week he tweeted something um i'll go in and find the tweets but he tweeted
Starting point is 00:24:51 something that got the people going he didn't say cardi's name but it's like you know we all know that they're going through whatever because it like you know a few months ago there was a divorce filing um so i guess something happened where she got fed up and she hopped on live and went off and then his comment in the live accusing her of having sex with somebody while pregnant did not make it any better. I didn't make it. She started going off. Yeah. Yes. You got to stop playing social media games with people you love. You know, saying like at the end of the day, that's your that's your wife. And that's what she said. Don't do that. She said, you know, he's a good dad.
Starting point is 00:25:22 She said he's a great dad. But she said their relationship just is they're not together now but what she did say was she's not gonna do this anymore not because of the family because she said the next guy that she dates probably won't want to date her because she will be playing internet games but she's been playing anymore so she said she's not gonna do it all says tweets were um one of them was a b gonna be a b and a ho gonna be a ho uh that was one of the tweets. So, you know, people picked that up and thought he was sucking my card. Yeah, don't play internet games with people you love, man. You know what I'm saying? Because at the end of the day, like, you know, y'all still got a whole family to raise together.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Yeah. Like you said, they got three young kids with each other. So they got a long way to go. Now, Diddy, back in the news, always again, happening again. TMZ is dropping this, like, documentarystyle thing that they do on Tubi. It's called The Downfall of Diddy. It covers all of the indictment. Now, in this documentary, his attorney...
Starting point is 00:26:14 I hate that, by the way. What? Because you only really get one side. You only get the side of the indictment. You don't get the other side of anything. Diddy's attorney is in here. Oh, okay. Let me bring that back in.
Starting point is 00:26:24 I was surprised to see it. No, he's in there. Yeah, so Markophilio um sat down with tmz for this and he talked about a bunch of stuff so he talked about the baby oil explanation they called them freak offs but you know back when i was a kid in the late 70s they were called threesomes if these are genuinely threesomes how do you explain a thousand bottles of baby oil? I don't know where the number a thousand came from. The U.S. Attorney said it. I can't imagine it's thousands.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I mean, you know, and I'm not really sure what the baby oil has to do with anything. They're essentially saying it's a lubricant for an orgy. I guess. I don't know what you need a thousand. One bottle of baby oil goes a long way.
Starting point is 00:27:02 I don't know what you need a thousand for. I mean, he has a big house. He buys in bulk. I think they have Costco's in every place where he has a home. I don't think it was a thousand. Let's just say it's a lot. I wish I could possess people. I want to possess them in that moment and say,
Starting point is 00:27:16 Harvey, there's a lot of buttholes out there that need lubing. Those cheeks be chafed. You understand, don't you? He's the one who told him it. It's lubricant, so Harvey get it. But how the lawyer the lawyer gonna be like i don't know why you need that many bottles i mean one bottle lasts a long way like that's your client that's honest though i like the honesty because if anybody asked the federal agents why the baby oil and lubricant was pertinent to the story and who counted the bottles of lubricant to know it was a thousand
Starting point is 00:27:40 yo if that was your job to count all of that that's what i'm saying saying. Like, OK, we're going to move on because there's one more. I want to get this one more audio in. So they also talk about the like the actual case in the trial when it happens, what's going to happen. And Diddy's attorney is saying that Diddy is going to testify and wants to testify on his own behalf. Let's take a listen. I don't know that I could keep him off the stand. I think he is very eager to tell his story, and I think he will tell every part of his story,
Starting point is 00:28:08 including what you see on the video. So I expect it's gonna be explained by the both of us. He has his story, and he has a story that I think only he can tell in the way he can tell it in real time. And it's a human story, it's a story of love, it's a story of human story it's a story of love it's a story of hurt it's a story of heartbreak i mean when he describes that relationship the word he uses more than any other word is heartbreak man it sound good with that music behind it but i don't know y'all i'm a
Starting point is 00:28:37 little nervous about did it get on the stand shoot i think he should take the stand i never understand any of these cases when folks don't take the stand. If I was facing all these charges and I believed I was innocent, I'm taking the stand. Even if, you know, in his situation, I think him taking the stand and telling the truth is a good thing because the truth don't need no defense, only witnesses. And I'm going to be, you know, my number one eyewitness
Starting point is 00:28:57 in a situation like that. And I think he should take the stand and tell the truth. Talk about all your addictions. Talk about, you know, how the industry got the best of you. You know, talk about why you need all of the lube. But the only problem...
Starting point is 00:29:09 Not a dry butthole in the building. Period. Stupid. The only problem is we're taking a stand is when you take the stand and you're getting cross-examined,
Starting point is 00:29:14 you have to make sure that your client can have a cool, calm composure that he's not showing, you know, snapping back. He might not.
Starting point is 00:29:22 He might cry. He might break down. But there's a possibility that Diddy might snap back. He might say something back. He might not. He might cry. He might break down. But there's a possibility that Diddy might snap back. He might say something back. He might clap back or something. Because everything we've been seeing, according to the prosecutors
Starting point is 00:29:31 with the outreach to these witnesses or whatever, it's still giving. It's bad boy, baby. You don't know who you're talking to. He can't do that on the stand. No, he can't. Not with them.
Starting point is 00:29:40 I'm sure they're going to have some of the witnesses. And I assume Cassie may take the stand too. That's not confirmed. I'm just assuming that. But have some of the witnesses. And, you know, I assume Cassie may take the stand, too. That's not confirmed. I'm just assuming that. But I also want to mention 50 Cent. He has his Diddy Oil that he's been posting about. This isn't a real product.
Starting point is 00:29:51 He's just being funny. But he has his documentary that he's going to be doing with Netflix as well, too. So that'll be coming as well. Take the stand, man. Take the stand and tell the truth. Straight up. Especially if you're a person like Diddy who claim to be a man of faith. Right?
Starting point is 00:30:04 Who claim to believe in God the way he believes in God. I want to give you this. Take the stand and tell the truth. I printed like Diddy Who claim to be a man of faith Right Who claim to believe in God The way he believes in God I want to give you this Take this stand and tell the truth I printed this Diddy oil out for you And then And then it's how people What
Starting point is 00:30:11 Understand the truth right Because somebody He might say something It's not Because people can take the truth differently You can say something Which means it You know
Starting point is 00:30:18 We all know You can say There's only one way to take I like buttholes Okay We gone Okay What about begging to peg
Starting point is 00:30:24 Begging to peg? I was begging for a peg. You see? Yeah, that'll hit harder than anything Johnny Cochran ever said in the courtroom. If the glove don't fit, it must acquit. I was begging for a peg. That's what you was saying on the stage? What?
Starting point is 00:30:35 Man, please. If he go up there and admit all of that, come on now. Say it again. Come on now. Say it again. Shut up. You got it? Oh, you trying to see see That's what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:30:47 What? You trying to set him up Yeah I was trying to set him up Yeah Cause rhymes in the courtroom work They do We've seen that We saw that rhymes in the courtroom work
Starting point is 00:30:57 And don't nothing hit like that If it don't fit You must acquit Well see But the things that would have pegged him Could fit anywhere depending on... With the lubricant. Okay, let's move on.
Starting point is 00:31:08 Now we understand. Now we get it. I don't even want to get it. I don't even want to imagine. All right. All right. All right. Well, that was just with the mess with Lauren LaRosa.
Starting point is 00:31:15 That's kind of crazy. No, I was talking to you. Oh, Envy. That's not what... We are moving on. We are moving on. We are moving on. On the stand?
Starting point is 00:31:24 No. When we come back. On the stand? No. When we come back, we got front page news. More going to be joining us. And then country singer Mickey Guy. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Laura La Rosa filling in for Jess. Let's get in some front page news, some quick sports. Tonight, the Giants take on the Cowboys at 8-15.
Starting point is 00:31:50 In WNBA playoffs, the Sun beat the Fever 87-81, and the Lynx beat the Mercury 101-88. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Let's get into it. So, Vice President Kamala Harris, she says her economic plan will build the middle class if she becomes president. She spoke about her plan for the economy at a campaign event in Pittsburgh,
Starting point is 00:32:14 Pennsylvania on Wednesday. Let's jump right into those comments from the BP in Pittsburgh. I intend to chart a new way forward and grow America's middle class. Donald Trump intends to take America backward. He has no intention to grow our middle class. Donald Trump intends to take America backward. He has no intention to grow our middle class. He's only interested in making life better for himself and people like himself. She's been saying this for months, though. She's been talking about her plan to rebuild the middle class for months. I mean, that's one of the reasons that, you know, I have no problem getting behind her and supporting her because of what she wants to do with the middle class, giving everybody the opportunity to own a home, everybody the opportunity to own
Starting point is 00:32:49 a small business. I think that's great. So she compared her plan to that of former President Trump saying for him, the economy works best if it works best for those who own big skyscrapers, not for people who build them. This marked the vice president's eighth visit to the battleground state. It's often being said that whoever wins Pennsylvania will win the election. She also sat down for an exclusive interview with MSNBC, where she doubled down on those comments about Trump making false promises, adding that he left the economy in a worse state since the Great Depression, and said top economists in the
Starting point is 00:33:26 u.s have compared each candidate's plan saying hers would grow the economy while trump's would shrink it now harris is set to visit arizona another key uh swing state on friday while trump has uh identified increased oil drilling and tariffs on autos made outside the u.s as his cornerstones for his economic plan now speaking of donald Donald Trump, he said the U.S. should warn Iran about threatening politicians. Now, he made the comments while speaking in Mint Hill, North Carolina yesterday, adding he was briefed by intelligence officials about ongoing Iranian threats to assassinate him. Let's hear those comments from Trump on the threat from Iran. You do any attacks on former presidents or candidates for president, your country gets
Starting point is 00:34:12 blown to smithereens, as we say. We are under threat. I have been threatened very directly, and I appreciate the agencies that we've been meeting with, but we've been threatened very directly by Iran. Four years ago, our country was feared and respected, and our country will soon be feared and respected again. We have to have that. I'll say this. I'm not going to downplay the threats from Iran because I simply don't know,
Starting point is 00:34:42 but those people who have been shooting at Trump, they haven't been from Iran, but I haven't seen trump demonize white men not once you know what i mean like not once yeah interesting fact yeah and i want to say something else you brought up too uh morgan uh the interview that the vice president did with uh stephanie rule on msnbc i think that's been her best conversation that we've seen her have since she's been announced as the uh democratic nominee yeah regarding that actual that um um interview she actually talked about uh further further she talked about how uh picking Tim Walls as her running mate was a gut decision so I think that humanized her and you know you know yeah I like
Starting point is 00:35:21 I like I just like the way Stephanie rules uh you know, I liked a lot of her follow up questions. Like, you know, when she when the vice president brought up her talking points about, you know, Donald Trump ruining the economy and Stephanie pushed back. It was like, well, it was a it was a dramatic downturn because of the pandemic. And so the vice president was she had to explain it even further and talk about how even before the pandemic, he lost manufacturing jobs. And, you know, he has tax cuts for billionaires and the top corporations in our country. I just thought it was a really good conversation. I thought Stephanie Ruhl did a great job. Speaking of Trump, you know, back on the topic of Trump and this whole Iranian threat.
Starting point is 00:35:59 He said that the sitting president needs to be firm with Iran and any other country that makes those type of threats towards U.S. politicians. Now, he added that if he were president again, the world would fear the U.S. And speaking of what's going on here on the home front, we are on Hurricane Watch right now. Many in the South are bracing for Hurricane Helene. Forecasters say Helene is expected to make landfall in Florida later today. The storm is expected to bring life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds and floods to much of the southeastern U.S. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, he has more insight on the storm. Let's hear from him. It is a fast-moving storm. It's projected to leave up to 12 inches of rainfall, and the storm surge could reach 10 to 15 feet in some areas. The impacts are going to be far beyond the eye of the storm. You're looking at winds that are stretching 200-plus miles away from the eye of the storm.
Starting point is 00:36:54 This thing's going to be whipping through. It's going to cause a lot of churn, and it is going to drive that water. And so it is going to be a significant water event. Helene, it does remain right now a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds around 90 miles per hour. Landfall, again, is expected later tonight with winds that could reach up to 130 miles per hour. They're also projecting that it could build to a Category 3 hurricane as it intensifies over the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Meanwhile, Tampa International Airport, if you're traveling to Tampa, the airport is closed as of 2 a.m. this morning and will reopen when it is safe to do so.
Starting point is 00:37:30 So if you are traveling on the East Coast towards the South, leaving from the South, just go ahead and check ahead if you are traveling, whether that be whatever mode of transportation you're taking, just definitely plan ahead and those for those who are in the south you know we're wishing you guys well and hope that you are will be okay uh in the in this uh weather event yeah they were saying that atlanta's we're gonna get like
Starting point is 00:37:55 9 to 11 inches so they're saying there's gonna be major floods and heavy winds so just be safe out there yes absolutely so that's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood.

Starting point is 00:38:34 We are The Breakfast Club. Jess is out. Of course, maternity leave. So Lauren LaRosa is filling in. And we got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Mickey Guyton. Welcome.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I am so, so, so excited to be here. Well, welcome. How are you feeling so, so excited to be here. Well, welcome. How are you feeling? I'm feeling really, really good. I just admire you guys, and I've listened to you guys for a long time, so it just really means a lot to be here. Thank you, Mickey. We appreciate you having no taste in morning show. None at all.
Starting point is 00:38:55 Thank you very much. Thank you. None at all. Who is Mickey Guyton for people that don't know? You know, I am a black country singer. The first female that has been nominated for a Grammy and Best Performance. Best Country Performance and Best Country Album. I've just been fighting the fight and trying to discover all these different country artists to give them opportunities and equality and a genre that was started by us.
Starting point is 00:39:21 And what made you fall in love with country music? So I know, I know you would think. Well, first of all, a you fall in love with country music so i i know i know you would think well first of all a lot of black people love country music i'm from waco texas or crawford texas and we started it yeah yes we did yes we did banjo was a west african yes we did when you go to the country music hall of fame one of the first things you see are black people picking on the porch so it's really important important. Picking the banjo, not cotton. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That too, I'm sure. That too, I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:39:48 But yeah, not cotton, but yes. So I went to a Southern Baptist church and I went to a Texas Rangers baseball game and I was all the way in the nosebleed section and I heard a girl named Leanne Rimes sing the national anthem and I just loved her voice and I've just loved it ever since.
Starting point is 00:40:04 When were your, like, before you decided to get into country music like what were you doing singing then and like what was it like man yeah I sang in the church um but I listened to all genres of music you know I was a huge fan of Whitney Houston a huge fan of Brandy and Monica like those are some of the people that I really looked up to and I don't know I just decided I was singing demos and I was working with this woman that wrote Stick It, that movie, whatever that movie was a long time ago. And I was singing demos for her
Starting point is 00:40:32 and she was like, Mickey, why don't you sing country music? And I was like, well, I've always loved it, but I mean, there's nobody of us that looks like me in that genre. And she was like, well, you should. So here I am. What do you define as country music nowadays?
Starting point is 00:40:44 Because, you know, I remember when they used to say taylor swift was a country music artist but then she sounded like she was making pop records yeah people would say this new album of yours yeah it's borderline pop yeah what is country music nowadays that's a good question because you know country music borrows from a lot of different genres you know if you listen to some of the biggest country artists in the world they all have trap beats in their music so that is a good question what is the sound of country music it's so funny that a lot of people want to define what country music is but it's really if it's your intention is to make country music whatever your country music is for you is your music because country music is all of our music because i like jelly roll yeah i love
Starting point is 00:41:21 it don't sound like country to me but i'm like like, well, maybe I don't know what country sounds like. There's rock influences in country. There's hip hop influences in country music. There is pop and R&B influences of country music. Like genres really are, you know, really coming together. It's becoming genre-less to me personally. But yeah, it's all kinds of music. People talk about there's so much racism in country music, right?
Starting point is 00:41:44 And so many things that you got to fight through. But they also said as a kid that you had to face a lot of racism growing up as well, going from school to school. So what made you say, you know what, I'm just going to keep on with this racism training, keep fighting through it? You know, listen, that is a good question because, you know, it shows itself all of the time. It's something, you know, sometimes you're just doing the Lord's work. It's so important as black people that we show ourselves in all different facets of this country
Starting point is 00:42:13 and in this world because this country was built off of black people. And for me, I loved country music so much and I was a little naive when I came into it at first. I thought, oh, it's going to be good for me. I loved country music so much. And I was a little naive when I came into it at first. I thought, oh, it's going to be good for me. I've got this.
Starting point is 00:42:28 I got a record deal right off the bat. I just knew it was going to be easy for me. And it wasn't. And it was really, really, really, really, really hard. And I was getting ready to quit. And as I was getting ready to quit country music, I talked to my husband saying like why do you think country music isn't working for me and he was like well you're running away from everything that makes you different like country music is three chords in the
Starting point is 00:42:52 truth and you're a black woman that sings country music so why aren't you writing that from that perspective so I wrote black like me this song that was nominated for a Grammy and from there I started thinking I, okay, if I'm going to leave this genre, I need to make sure that I can make it easier for the people that come after me. So I started looking for black country singers. And I found Britney Spencer, who was just over here. I discovered Raina Roberts and Tanner Adele
Starting point is 00:43:18 and all these different artists. And I was just like trying to show people that we're here. Because if black people can see themselves. We will we will come to the genres. If you're in, you know, in a corporation and you're in a high powered position, I feel like it is your obligation to make sure that you look out for people that look like you, especially because we are all a part of this world and we shouldn't just be in the shadows anymore. So that was kind of my motivation to keep on this racism train because let me tell you it is hard what was your biggest challenge you know country radio was one of the biggest challenges for me you know going on radio tour and country music you have to do radio tours and you have to go and sing in these like dingy
Starting point is 00:44:01 bars and bring people dickies barbecue and donuts and sing in these yeah it's really really hard and they and all these people can decide if they want to play your music or not you know like there was some radio program directs that refused to play me it was really hurtful for sure because I've seen that when Beyonce put out her record so many country stations didn't want to play her record as well. So you totally understood what she was going through. Oh, 100%. 100%. And how did you feel when she wasn't nominated for anything at the CMA?
Starting point is 00:44:31 I was very disappointed. I was very disappointed. You know, like, I know what a lot of it has to do with the voters and who's voting. And a lot of the voters are, you know, radio program directors. So it is what it is. You know, you've got to show up and vote i guess is all you can say i can say it was really definitely disappointing because there was such a chance and a moment to show that all that we've been fighting for that it's acknowledged and i mean she did have one of the biggest albums this year you think she got snubbed i asked that same question to somebody
Starting point is 00:45:01 in country and they said to me not really when i asked that she gets snubbed to say it's never been about album success tons of artists in country don't get recognized the voting group is a ton of industry from all over the country and when an artist any doesn't put forth the effort to do interviews or be a part of the community it's hard to get them to vote for you yeah and then they were telling me about like zach bryan got screwed yeah uh i mean and that's very true too but then they talked about shibuzzy and I've never heard of Warren Treaty they're black so they talked about you know so Warren Treaty Tanya was the girl in Sister Act that sang with Lauren Hill
Starting point is 00:45:32 oh yeah so y'all really need to show some love to Warren Treaty yeah wow so basically it is politics yeah there is I mean there's politics in every award show you know. I just felt, I was just really disappointed because I felt like it was an opportunity for the CMAs as a whole to show, like, maybe not Album of the Year, but maybe that song, like Texas Hold'em, because it was a really big song.
Starting point is 00:46:01 It would have just been great to see one thing. All right, we got more with country music star Mickey Guyton. When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. And we're still kicking it with country music star Mickey Guyton.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Charlamagne? Now, the first track on the album is called My Side of the Country. Yes. What does your side of the country look like, Mickey? Well, I live in live, you know, I live in Texas, but I also live in California. And the reason why I wrote that song, first of all, I wrote that song with a guy named Tyler Hubbard, who was in that group, Florida Georgia Line. We just wanted to write a song because there's so many versions of country music, which is what we were talking about at the beginning of the show.
Starting point is 00:46:39 Like there's West Coast country. There's, you know, New York country, I feel like. There's middle of Coast country. There's New York country, I feel like. There's middle of America country. And I just wanted to show all the different facets that my side of the country looks like this. I've got a beach, but I also wear cowboy boots, you know? Well, I didn't know that there were like, how is West Coast, East Coast like hip-hop? There is, yeah. Like if you look at like, there's Bakersfield country.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Like there's an artist named John Party. There's very specific kinds of country. How traumatizing is being a black person in country music, especially a black woman? Because it feels like so many of the things that you have to deal with
Starting point is 00:47:12 just in society, there's so many of those show up in country music. Yes. You were being emotional earlier. Yeah, don't make me cry. I'm sorry. I noticed it though.
Starting point is 00:47:22 Yeah, so it's really hard you know even with beyonce's cowboy carter and her featuring so many amazing black country artists even after that there's still artists that aren't signed like reina roberts is still not signed reina's not signed not yet no wow and so that's why another reason why i wanted to come on here is try to just like you you know, encourage your listeners to really be intentional with your consumerism and support all of these black country artists on this record because it is really hard. We are paving a way that is completely uncharted.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Like there's no path. There's no formula for black female country singers. Yeah. You know, like Linda Martel left this genre, you know, money long dabbled female country singers. You know, like Linda Martel left this genre. Money Long dabbled in country music. K. Michelle. K. Michelle. It's so hard.
Starting point is 00:48:14 I do believe that black women are the most vulnerable in the world and so often we're just set aside, cast aside. You're problematic. You're too loud. Whatever it is. And I think that's also why I stick in this sometimes racist, a lot of times racist genre to just protect them. Is it true that a few years ago when Morgan Wallen used the word, you spoke out against it.
Starting point is 00:48:39 You received so much backlash that it caused you to go into early labor? Yes. What? Yes. Stress? Yes. Stress? Yes. I'm sorry that happened to you. And nobody had you back.
Starting point is 00:48:49 I'm so sorry that happened to you. I'm so sorry. The shoes here. Yeah. I need more water. I would hug you too, but it looks like we're tag teaming. So I don't want to do that. Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:03 But now we understand. You're fighting. You feel like you're fighting by yourself. What kept you going after I don't want to do that. Yes. But now we understand. You're fighting. You feel like you're fighting by yourself. What kept you going after that? Yeah, how do you go? You know, my husband, all the people that have encouraged to come to this genre, I can't just abandon them. You know?
Starting point is 00:49:19 You don't just abandon your people. Like, you can't do that. And there has been so much change that has happened since then. Going to CMA Fest. I've been going to CMA Fest for years and I saw nobody. And now there's so many different black country artists that are coming and being on stages and getting to sing on stages. There's black people that are attending CMA Fest that feel like there's a space for them. That is what's happening.
Starting point is 00:49:54 So, yes, change is slow. It's hard. There's so much going on that can be very discouraging. But there's also so many things that are happening because we're still here and we're still fighting. Do you feel nobody supports you and has your back? Oh, I have a lot of people that support me and have my back. Like these people right here have my back. You know, Britney Spencer is like one of my best friends.
Starting point is 00:50:18 And we talk through so many of these things all the time. There's, you know, there's black women in the industry that we confide in each other that have high power positions. And it's just like, we just find each other. You know, I'll go to an award show and I'll see one black person that's working in production. And we know each other, like we've known each other for years. So there is like a support.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Like I do have a family of people that support me you guys just even taking the time to talk to me i've wanted to talk to y'all so much just to kind of like spread the word and let people know that we're here so that you can just know that you can support us it would just mean the world and y'all being here thank y'all the sad thing about it is i know for myself i'm not i wasn't really into country music yeah because i didn't see anybody that looked like me or looked like my kids and looked like but working up here you start meeting people and you start it starts opening you up because yeah i've never listened to country music you know i mean but i it's sad to say but when beyonce did the album made me open up to like oh let me hear what else are they talking about which is sad so for me it was alice
Starting point is 00:51:22 randall yes you know alice randall yes yeah because she she put out a book called my black punch my black country actually published it so when i read the book you know about it probably like a year and a half ago i was just intrigued by the history that black people had in country music so before there was a beyonce i just thought this was a great story that people need to hear and then god put had cowboy carter i would come out so it's just all yeah aligned and there was a whole influx of country artists even before the ones that you're seeing there was a movement like this that it happened like i believe in like the 80s or 90s and it's just like you get so how often can you keep running in a burning house you know and it's just so
Starting point is 00:52:00 important again black people all people to be intentional with your consumerism. Like, really, really think about and just, even if you just stream that artist's song one time a day, like, what that could do for that artist. Because it's so important. In corporations, they hear money. That's where they, you know, they hear money. And that's what drives everything. That's what gives us our jobs. And if we can just continuously support them because they need it so much, like support Raina Roberts, support Tierra, support Shabuzy.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Not that he needs it. He's doing really good. But support Britney Spencer, Tanner Adele. Go to their shows. Go to all of our shows. You got a whole headlining tour that you're about to start in D.C. And also, you say once that, because I want to expound
Starting point is 00:52:47 on what you were saying, you said, I am proof standing here that you should invest in black talent. There's equity in us and if we just get the opportunity, there's so much possibility.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Yes. So what is the possibility? The possibility is to headline your own tour, be able to pay your bills, be able to provide for your family, be able to live your dream
Starting point is 00:53:02 of being a country artist. There's so many black people that love country music that i don't even think that we realize because we didn't think the genre was for us and they are coming out of the woodworks talking about country artists i don't even know right so that's what i mean when a dolly parton says something like what she said in response to beyonce not getting um a nominated for c. Does that hurt or help your mission of things? Because inside, like you said, people are like, well, no, it's politics. There's like, you know, people are senior here.
Starting point is 00:53:34 But then on the outside, it felt like, and people reacted to it, because it felt like, oh, no, this is us being shut out again. Yes, yes. You know, I think that it does unintentionally on Dolly's part. Some other people may say that and have a different intention. But I do feel like in her and her intention was not to defend the CMAs like that. I think maybe she's talking about the people in there. I don't know. But I do believe that it can hurt us. Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Let's play a joint off the hour. Let's play something something off the island so people can hear exactly what we're talking about house on fire that's a good one yeah house on fire all right well let's get to it now here's the breakfast club good morning that was house on fire mickey guy in his hair country music star she is the first black woman nominated for best country solo performance at the grammys and we're still kicking it with the now let's talk about the song scary love yeah i have six kids charlamagne has four so that is definitely a scary type of situation so let's talk about what inspired that song and how it almost scared the ish out of you oh man so back in 2021 when my son was nine months old he ended up getting really sick and this was during covid this is during covid and he turned
Starting point is 00:54:45 septic and had sepsis and i will never forget it we were sitting in the er and i looked at the nurse and i choked out the words is my baby gonna die and she looked at me and she said i am very concerned right now and he is the sickest person in the er right now and that was during the height of covid so what what happened break us down like what did you see i fell to my knees i was saw i saw him losing consciousness at home and then you just rushed him to that yeah we rushed him to the hospital he was losing consciousness in the car and then he was at that part of that point of like delirium and i think he was in so much pain like he just wasn't there, but I saw him slipping away from me. And I remember I just fell to my knees praying. This woman was on a stretcher and she reached down and we just
Starting point is 00:55:32 started praying. And I have my complicated relationship with God and I don't always pray. And I think after the last few years of all the hate that's been spewing and when I was getting cyber bullied, a lot of these people had Bible verses in their profile pictures and their profile bios. And it was just really hard. So in this moment, like all I could do is pray. And then it made me realize why my mom was so crazy over me growing up. Because you think, Mom, I got it. I'm fine. And then you realize, like, she's not fine if something happens to you. So now everything that I do, like getting behind the wheel and driving, I'm praying.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Going anywhere, I just pray to get back home to my family safely. It's an underrated blessing. Yeah, it is. Like, you don't even realize that. And in 2023, I lost three people in my life in the same month and so it does like life is so fleeting like it's such a blessing to breathe every single day absolutely what are you doing mentally every single day to kind of recharge you you have a lot and it's just because you're a black woman in a room where you don't. I mean, there's more of us now, but it wasn't like that.
Starting point is 00:56:47 It's kind of heavy. What are you doing every single day that kind of lifts you back up? So I take these. They're a natural stress shield. So it's a natural like anti-anxiety medication that I take. I really try to stay away from social media in a sense of like... That's the biggest thing right there.
Starting point is 00:57:08 All the politics. I need to see love and light. Give me a funny dog video. Snoop Dogg always has the best videos. I love watching his page because they just bring a source of laughter. I think as a whole,
Starting point is 00:57:22 we just need joy right now. We're triggered constantly. Every single. Like we're, it's, we're triggered constantly every single day. And so sometimes, you know, it's okay to just take a sit back and take a break and not look at all that because it's traumatizing every single day. Why did you have a complicated relationship with God? Well, I just think because, you know, all the racism that you see and all of these people that claim to love God are saying such terrible things to you and it just made me feel like like are you really there why would you give us this fight in life you know but you know I'm so grateful that the Lord is near the brokenhearted right and I
Starting point is 00:57:58 think he puts like we're his people we're his children and he looks after us and so yeah before songs like scary love and um black like me what were you writing about i was i was just trying to figure out what would advance me in country music i was trying to write what i was trying to interpret that type of country music i just wanted to be accepted so there was sometimes i would go in writing sessions and i'll never forget it they would write a song with oh and his blue eyes and I'm like well the man that I love doesn't have blue eyes he's got dark brown eyes you know and I was writing fake songs about a fake life that I did not live you would still sing the song anyway no no I wouldn't I wouldn't sing that but when we were writing I didn't even have the courage to be like, you know. That's not good.
Starting point is 00:58:45 Yeah. And so, but yeah, I was writing about a fake life that I don't live. And so I stopped doing that. And I started really writing like just what country music is to me. What's the biggest misconception about country music? Because I keep thinking about this Cowboy Carter album. And it's just like, did people buy that album for Beyonce or because they're really interested in country music? I think, you know, those are her fans and it's a new genre of music.
Starting point is 00:59:09 Why not? I want to put them on my boots and spurs, even though we don't walk around in our spurs. But, you know, is that stereotypical? Is that like, yeah, I don't people don't wear spurs on. You know, I think that's a big misconception of country music. And as much as I have been talking about, you know, racism in country music, there are some really, really, really good people in the genre. Like there are, you know, like Maren Morris or a girl named Cam. Tyler Hubbard is also a really, really good person in country music. Chris Stapleton, Jelly Roll, you know, there's a really good group of people
Starting point is 00:59:42 in there. So, you know, I don't want to say everybody's horrible. I'm not walking around these streets and people are waving their Confederate flags at me. That's not happening. But I mean, that has happened, though. Yeah. So how do you see the country music landscape five years from now? Do things get better? Do more doors get knocked down?
Starting point is 00:59:59 I don't know. I don't know if you want to be perfectly honest. I don't know. But we have a lot of people. This woman back here, Cameo Carlson, she can come to the cookout. She started a program called Equal Access, and they give out grants to all these artists from underserved communities, whether you're gay, black, Latino, whatever you are,
Starting point is 01:00:17 to give them an opportunity to record music and an album. So there's people that are really doing things. It's just, I don't know. I just hope people don't get discouraged and don't want to keep pursuing this genre of music i hope shibuzi is showing you know that it can happen for anybody and maybe inspiring more people to come to the genre because i believe that it is not enough for just one person to be one person of color to be successful in country music that is not change like you saw charlie pride and that was it for the longest time and so it's like you
Starting point is 01:00:51 have to help your people like change is all of you walking through that door together and being able to have your own lucrative career careers because once you have your lucrative career then you can have opening acts and that are of color that can have their own careers. That's the only way, in my personal opinion, that I can feel like we can see true change. Well, we appreciate you for joining me.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Thank y'all so, so much. I'm sorry for crying. I'm talking about a show. I want to experience a show now. You got me excited. Maybe I'm going to listen to more than just Cowboy Carter. Come on.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I'm going to do it. That's why you should get Mickey Guyton's album, House on Fire, but you should also read My Black Country by Alice Randall. I'm telling you got it. You should get Mickey guidance out of my house on five, but you should also read my black country by Alice Randall. I'm telling you, it goes
Starting point is 01:01:27 hand in hand. If you care about country music and black people in country music, she breaks it down. That's right. I just want to support you.
Starting point is 01:01:34 I just want you to feel like it's not just you. No. Yeah. I really appreciate it. It's not just me. And I really, you guys again, just being here

Starting point is 01:02:03 It is a bop. But to say he's our Jay-Z is a reach. Boy, y'all, how quick y'all forget about the hitch that Big Draco gave y'all. I'm not denying none of the hitch. You're not going to have him online screaming at his phone at me. Draco is a pioneer. He is. Okay.
Starting point is 01:02:20 He is. And he liked that. You was doing the, you! Oh, I was. And I will still do it today. What? We're going to the folders. Classic.

So, in a statement, he said, Knowing that I gave my all to the game, I feel in my decision this is what he told espn basketball was just the beginning for me now it's important that i give my all to my family they deserve that um he took out ads in different newspapers in six different places where he's played so the chicago tribune uh the commercial commercial pill which which is Memphis, Detroit Free Press, Cleveland

I mean, he had a phenomenal career. You're talking about a guy that had
Starting point is 01:03:41 like five knee surgeries, you know, towards ACL. Like there was times when people thought Derrick Rose's career was over. So for him to continue to keep on keeping on and still be prospering, hey man, salute to you, D. Rose. And not only that, every coach that said that, coached him, said he was a pleasure to coach.

Starting point is 01:04:13 doing a tribute to his late brother, Glenn Johnson, who died by suicide back in November 2020. This organization that he has is called The Baby Cares. He's already had the organization, but the new project is they're launching. No, I'm sorry. He has a community organization and under that community organization, he's launching the Baby Cares.

It's going to be a mental health platform aimed at providing resources, including a free guide to different people in need. The baby told Rolling Stone, in honor of my brother's untimely passing, I've become devoted to utilizing my platform and resources to provide the tools that are needed to combat mental health issues.

It wants to end the stigma as he mentioned and the initiative specifically is called the Glen Johnson for mental health initiative so it's going to unite a bunch of mental health leaders youth and different families so that people can receive real-time support that they need to overcome different challenges dropping a clue to boss with a baby I love that my brother that is a very
Starting point is 01:05:23 worthy cause that he's doing You know a guy like him is dealt with so much grief and so much. Yes trauma Yeah, you know I mean cuz his father passed away right when he was taking off getting hot Suicide then you think about all of the you know Violence he's had an encounter And he's raising his kids, but I know he also took on his brother's son as well, too. You know, just being,
Starting point is 01:05:47 coming up and living a different lifestyle. Now, he has a lot going on, so. Yeah, we working on having him at the fourth annual Mental Wealth Expo, too, man. That'd be fire.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Yeah, yeah. Salute to my guy, Arnold. That'd be fire. They reached out, so we working on having him there to talk about that initiative that he's doing. Yes.
Starting point is 01:06:02 That's lit. That's happening October 12th in New York City, Marriott Marquis Times Square. Free event, open to the public, man. Just go to mentalwealthexpo.com
Starting point is 01:06:09 for more details. Dope, dope, dope, dope. Well, speaking of rappers, Skillababy has something to say about rap being a young man's sport. Let's take a listen. Ain't no old s*** sport. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:19 When a s*** be trying to be like, it's only certain s*** could be like Future or Drake or be old as hell and be like rapping and doing like you're right there with them listening to that but it's only certain to be 40 years old and rap about that and be accepted culturally so if you feel like everybody gonna be like future he's done go have some. We want to still be a kingpin and you 35,
Starting point is 01:06:48 you ain't sold a zip of dope. Why is you? Your audience is 35 years old. The young and the young females, they going crazy. Sexy Red is blitzing the clubs, blitzing the charts. Boss Man D-Lo is gone. Ballistic.
Starting point is 01:07:06 Skill of Baby, not wrong, but it's interesting, right? Because I remember artists from our era who are 40 plus now. I remember when they sounded like that at 20 something years old. When they were saying rappers and young man sport and all the old rappers need to retire. Now they're 40 plus and still rapping. So I want to see what Skill of Baby going to be doing 15 years from now. Because he's 25. Yeah, I was going to say though.
Starting point is 01:07:25 I feel like people always say that the quality of music at that time is a little bit different. Like people right now say name two songs that 10 years from now will still be like,
Starting point is 01:07:35 oh my God, this was hard. Like how you guys have, like a lot of Jay-Z songs have aged like Fine Wine, like just different people. That's a lot of them. Future's music,
Starting point is 01:07:43 I will say, people throw shade to him and don't give it to him but his music from start to finish ages it's gonna stay the time i mean if you've been around for 15 plus years and i think people what people don't realize is your time is your time so whatever record you was getting that first kiss to or that first dance to or you went out on that first day too that's gonna be your music like we just played soldier boy kiss me through the phone it made me feel good i remember high school i remember my Ants 2 or you went out on that first day too. That's going to be your music. Like, we just played Soulja Boy, Kiss Me Through the Phone. And it made me feel good. That's my point.
Starting point is 01:08:06 I remember high school. I remember my sidekick flip. That's my point. I'm going to be telling my kids. See, Skillababy can't necessarily say that because a lot of the biggest artists are over the age of 35. You know, you look at the number one record right now. So, Kendrick Lamar is 37 years old.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Huge is 40 years old. You said that though. But what I'm saying is, it's not just a young man's game like he said I think he's saying it's selective like only select people can do that because
Starting point is 01:08:30 what he's also saying is like if you get to a certain age well at least that's what I would take from it if you get to a certain age rap about what you're going through right
Starting point is 01:08:38 and see who that connects with there's only a few people that can be 40 still talk about the content future does and still be popping. Future might be the only one. Shout out to the Unk community, though.
Starting point is 01:08:48 We here for all the music. Somebody like Future falls in the middle a little bit. But, yeah. Maybe, no, 2 Chainz, too, though. 2 Chainz falls in the middle. 2 Chainz. I can't, let me see, who else? So, Skillababy got a point.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Gucci. Gucci falls in the middle. Gucci, man. Hell, yeah. T.I. T.I. don't really make the trap music like that no more. Sometimes. But in drop, people still feel that vibe from him.
Starting point is 01:09:10 Absolutely. Absolutely. Well, shout out to the on community. We appreciate y'all. We salute y'all. GZ don't make the trap music no more like that either. But when he got on, we get the feeling from him, though. Yes.
Starting point is 01:09:18 It just feels like old school riding in the Maybach. Yes. All right, y'all. Well, yep. That's it. Okay. You was trying to find another person. Yeah, I was thinking another rapper-hmm. Yes. All right, y'all. Well, yep. That's it. Okay. You was trying to find another person? Yeah, I was thinking another rapper.
Starting point is 01:09:27 It's okay. All right. Well, that was just with the mess with Lawn LaRosa. Now, Charlamagne, who you giving that donkey to? Four after the hour. We need Brett Favre
Starting point is 01:09:34 to come to the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. I just want to remind y'all. Lauren's going to be upset. Well, I know. I know, but we need to. I am not upset. I have no ties.
Starting point is 01:09:41 I just want to remind y'all about what really happened this week. Okay? Okay. You all right, Lauren? Yeah, I'm great. What's going on? Just making sure.
Starting point is 01:09:48 And then after that is Ask C&E. So if you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call me and Charlamagne and Lauren right now. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out The Breakfast Club. Your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Give me the reason. You gave me donkey of the day and something to behold. Give me the reed. He gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it. People need to know. Well, you need to tell them. I am. You have the voice. Tell them. It's time for donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:10:16 It's a reed, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake ass Charlemagne. There's only one Charlemagne in the world. Damn Charlemagne, who you give the duck year today to now? Well, duck year today for Thursday, September 26th goes to Brett Favre. Hey, y'all. My name is Lenard McKelvey, a.k.a. Charlemagne Tha God. I am your friendly neighborhood bad guy.
Starting point is 01:10:34 And I am always willing to be the a-hole you need. Unless, of course, that a-hole is needed at one of Diddy's freak-offs. Now, if you haven't heard, and you honestly may not have heard, because the media has done a great job of changing the narrative, Brett Favre testified at a congressional hearing this past Tuesday. Yes, he testified in front of the House Ways and Means Committee,
Starting point is 01:10:54 which is investigating how states are spending money intended for needy citizens. Brett Favre is one of the people being sued by the state of Mississippi, and they are demanding repayment of the money. They are trying to recover $90 million, but he is one of the people being sued by the state of Mississippi, and they are demanding repayment of the money. They are trying to recover $90 million, but he is one of more than 40 people who have been sued by the state of Mississippi. Mississippi is demanding repayment of money.
Starting point is 01:11:14 They are trying to recover more than $90 million, okay? Brett Favre is denying that he knowingly misused federal welfare money, okay? According to auditors, though, in 2017 and 2018 mr farb received 1.1 million in speaking fees for speeches he never gave he knew he didn't give those speeches but he took the money anyway they suggested he also helped funnel millions of dollars to pet projects five million dollars to build volleyball facilities at his alma mater he even paid back the 1.1 million in misspitched speaking fees but the state demanded that he pay back interest and brett farve refused so the state of mississippi
Starting point is 01:11:49 is now suing him to recoup the funds he wrongfully acquired the lawsuit also made public text from mr farve that suggested he had a larger role than he claimed okay in fact brett farve says he was unjustly smeared in the news media but but text messages written by Mr. Favre and made public in court filings suggested that he was trying to hide his involvement. Let's go to KTLA 5 for the report, please. Newly revealed text messages filed in an ongoing civil lawsuit show Favre was part of a scheme that funneled at least $5 million of welfare funds to build a new volleyball stadium at the University of Southern Mississippi, where Favre graduated and his daughter played. The texts show former Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant pushed for the facility, despite denying close involvement.
Starting point is 01:12:36 A friend of the former governor's wife, Nancy New, would submit a $5 million upfront lease to use the university's athletic facilities for her non-profit's programming, ostensibly for needy families, in exchange for offices inside the new volleyball complex. Former Welfare Agency Director John Davis approved $4 million immediately. Favre, texting in gray, tells New that the governor has seen the proposal, but, hint, hint, you need to reword it to get it accepted. I really feel like he's trying to figure out a way to get it done without actually saying it says farb of the former governor farb also received 1.1 million dollars in welfare funding through the mississippi community
Starting point is 01:13:16 education center for speaking at events he never showed up to farb asks new if you were to pay me is there any way the media can find out where it came from and how, If you were to pay me, is there any way the media can find out where it came from and how much? If you were to pay me, is there any way the media can find out where it came from and how much? I don't see how you can send a text like that but then claim at a hearing on Tuesday. I had no way of knowing that there was anything wrong with how the state funded the project. If you didn't think it was anything wrong with how the state was funding the project,
Starting point is 01:13:43 then why would you care if the media found out where the money came from or how much? Now, why am I telling you all this story? Because a lot of folks probably didn't know Brett Favre was testifying in a congressional hearing Tuesday because he's being accused of helping to divert funds meant for low income residents. Because Brett Favre decided to use the hearing to announce that he has Parkinson's disease. Can we go to CBS News to listen to what he had to say? Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre dropped a bombshell today while testifying before Congress. The 54-year-old revealed he is battling Parkinson's disease.
Starting point is 01:14:16 Here's CBS's Omar Villafranca. I very much appreciate the opportunity to testify here today. A stunning announcement today from Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre. I've recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's. This is also a cause dear to my heart. Favre was testifying on Capitol Hill about a Mississippi welfare scandal where he is accused of improperly using his connections to secure millions of dollars for his alma mater and himself for speaking engagements he never performed. Favre has repaid more than a million dollars to the state and has denied all wrongdoing. Even though I knew and I know I had done nothing wrong, I returned the funds, no questions asked.
Starting point is 01:14:55 Brett Favre used some of the federal money intended for welfare recipients. He used some of the money to invest in a company that was developing a breakthrough concussion drug. He said he thought it would help others and i'm sure you understand while it's too late for me because i've recently been diagnosed with parkinson's this is also a cause dear to my heart so dear to his heart that he used money he obtained illegally money that was supposed to go to low-income residents he took that money to invest in this pharmaceutical company called uh prevacus prevacus and guess what the media ate it up every single headline you see is brett farb reveals he has parkinson's disease well guess
Starting point is 01:15:31 guess what he was diagnosed with parkinson's disease disease back in january okay how convenient to run that play when you are testifying at a congressional hearing because you did something shady so you see this is my problem with the media everybody picks and chooses who they choose to demonize granted brettavre hasn't been charged with anything criminal, but what he did is unethical and could still be criminal. But he knew he had Parkinson's disease since January. In fact, I was reading an ESPN article that said Brett Favre asked TMZ not to report his diagnosis at the time because he knew back then that wasn't the time to run that play. I'm going to run that play when I have to testify at a, I don't know, a congressional hearing because then it will distract from what I'm actually here for
Starting point is 01:16:08 and that is because I was using federal money from welfare recipients to fund my pet projects. But it worked. Google Brett Favre. These are the headlines you see. The New York Times. Brett Favre reveals he has Parkinson's disease. Fox News.
Starting point is 01:16:20 NFL legend John Elway talks Brett Favre's Parkinson's disease. It's sad news to hear. Milwaukee Journal. Aaron Rodgers feels bad for Brett Favre's Parkinson's disease. It's sad news to hear. Milwaukee Journal, Aaron Rodgers feels bad for Brett Favre after learning about his Parkinson's diagnosis. New York Post, Brett Favre opens up on frustrating health worry that led to Parkinson's disease. Yes, his health diagnosis is sad. But wow, how convenient for the media to just bury the lead. Why don't others get that grace? NBC News said Brett Favre's Parkinson's diagnosis renews questions about football and brain
Starting point is 01:16:46 disease. How about Brett Favre's testimony at welfare reform hearing renews questions about how the rich keep getting richer and the poor don't get a devil damn thing. How has Brett Favre managed to garner more sympathy than the welfare recipients they stole from? Brett Favre had the nerve to say, sadly, I lost an investment in a company. We don't care. People couldn't eat because of what folks like you did. I care way more about those poor and disenfranchised people in Mississippi,
Starting point is 01:17:11 the welfare recipients who didn't receive $90 million because folks like Brett Favre wanted to build volleyball facilities at their alma mater. All I'm saying is two things can be true. You can be sad, Brett Favre has Parkinson's. But what's really shaky is how the media just seems to forget why Brett Favre was at this congressional hearing in the first place. We live in a society where people get demonized for accusations, but folks who actually do shady stuff, who actually do unethical stuff and have to testify about it, somehow end up becoming heroes and sympathetic figures. If you don't think there's a double standard in media and how they cover people, and it's usually based on race, then you're buggingging but i will always be here to remind you please give brett farve the
Starting point is 01:17:50 biggest hee haw who want to argue anyone nobody okay i felt horrible yesterday why because i think i was waiting to see how some outlets where i used to work covered the story because i wanted to see you brought up a good point in the room you know i'm always here for learning and growth that it's because it's mainstream media that does it it's not me particularly it's mainstream media and i was a part of mainstream media for a very long time that's how i learned at tmz and when i when they posted the article they did not one time mention anything about any of the reason why he was there pleading his case at all. Not one time. And I was like, man.
Starting point is 01:18:32 And I had to dig for the answer myself. If it had been anybody black, that would have been the first thing that they said. I remember having arguments about Dana White versus Chris Brown. And I just thought back to all of that and my feelings about it and just different things. And I'm not just throwing a dart at them because I went through Google for a while trying to prepare for that Brett Favre thing. And it took me a minute to find out why he was even there because no one was talking about it. But you didn't report the media pics? I did mention it, but I didn't do it the way I should have.
Starting point is 01:19:02 And what I'm saying is, it's in growth and in learning. And I appreciate y'all for bringing it to my attention. You love white men more than black men? No. It's just, I think that we have a way of leaning
Starting point is 01:19:13 to what the media is talking about and not what we should be talking about sometimes. The media picks and chooses who I love. The media picks and chooses who they want to demonize
Starting point is 01:19:21 because they know how to demonize people. It's not like they don't know how to. They just choose who not to do it it to and it's a lot of times based on race well thank you for that donkey today now when we come back as c and e 800-585-1051 there's a lady on the line her name is kiki she needs some help she wants to know the uh says, unlike Lauren, she wants to date black men. But she read that by 2040, most women will be single because of the problems of dating. So we'll talk to her and find out what her question is.
Starting point is 01:19:53 We'll be coming back. All right, read that, Kiki. Let me look that up. That's The Breakfast Club. Come on. The Breakfast Club. It's that time again. Ask Charlamagne and DJ Envy anything.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. It's time to ask C&E. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Larris, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask C&E. Hello, who's this? Hello.
Starting point is 01:20:19 Hey, Kiki. Hey, how are you guys doing? Good morning, you all. Good morning, Kiki. I listen to you every day. I've been listening for years. Actually, I called in a couple years ago when I was facing a decision of getting a divorce, and I've since been divorced, and I'm in Texas now. I left Minnesota, and I don't think that this gets addressed very often. The state of affairs the relationships between black men and black women
Starting point is 01:20:45 and i find that it's very sad that we're so against each other and so many of us are great people and are single and i was reading a report last night that said by the year 2030 45 percent of people will be single and child and that's a very sad state of affairs i think and i just wondered what you all thought about that and why it's that way and what we can do to change it what are the reasons i mean did it say why in the article like what were some of the reasons they gave well a lot of reasons that were stated were that people aren't finding true connections you know and the headache of trying to meet people a lot of black women that i know are very successful have good credit on their own home
Starting point is 01:21:25 but are finding men that are just after the physical they're not trying to get to know you they just want to take you on a couple dates and probably by day three they think they're gonna smash you and that's it and a lot of us that have our own are like no they want something more fulfilling than that they want a partner they want a marriage it says uh career women prioritizing career education more women are getting bachelor's degrees um women are marrying later women are waiting until they're older to have children um and yeah economic patterns workplace policies lauren freestyling by the way lauren's how about they said lauren ain't reading nothing lauren just started talking
Starting point is 01:22:01 lauren had this already written down no i looked it up it's a morgan stanley study i looked it up because i i think about that all the time like when we know you do that's how you know it off the top of your head how do you know like dang like what if you never get back with a person like what some it's like five of us that are single in a group thoughts and prayers at least two people are never going to get with the person never thoughts and prayers you know what I always thought about, though? I think people, and this is just me, but I'm not a single man. I've been with my wife for 30 years. But I think people are too into it.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Congratulations on that. That's a beautiful thing. Thank you so much. But I also feel like people are too into so many things outside of a relationship, right? When I was dating my wife, and I'm sure Charlamagne was dating his wife. Don't bring me into this. Yeah, you were dating your wife. We didn't look at people's credit
Starting point is 01:22:47 scores. We didn't look at what people did, what they were gonna do. We just cared, when I cared, I just cared about love. Like you, you look into what does he do? How much does he make? Where is he going? What's his credit score? Where does he live? This, that, and the other. By the time you get into all those things, that dating pool is
Starting point is 01:23:03 very short. And what's crazy is, meanwhile, you poe. You poe. You ain't got nothing. You ain't even got nothing but looking for everything in this other person. But you don't have nothing.
Starting point is 01:23:14 Listen, no. Listen, no, Charlamagne. That's not true, though, because I've been that woman before. I've been that woman that was not looking for credit scores and what you can bring
Starting point is 01:23:24 to the table. And what did that bring me as a sole provider for a family responsible for all of that so you have to pivot from that at one point because you can't be the person that's supposed to be the submissive woman but you're paying all the damn bills and everything and the responsibility falls on you that is a lot of us it's a trauma response we all have been there where we're not putting yourself where you i promise you we all have been there where you really just love somebody. You don't care what they got going on.
Starting point is 01:23:48 You've been in love, Laura? Exactly. And I've been there. And that was my ex-husband. But I think that's the thing. When I needed him and it didn't have anything to do with money, it had to do with support and being there for me. But that was the first thing you said was money.
Starting point is 01:23:59 I lost my time. And my husband, who I was providing for for the whole house so he was working yes but i was the breadwinner and when i needed him in an emotional place he was not there so it's different for us like we want we don't care all the time what you make and all of that but when it's time to be the man that we need you to be where are you well i think that you know you just need to trust god's timing you know i mean um you know there's there's prayers for loneliness no that there really is like there's a prayer where you can just but it's a real thing you can ask god for community and companionship i think
Starting point is 01:24:38 that you know we got to be very intentional about these things i know you calling the radio station and asking these questions but i'm talking about when y'all are putting together y'all vision boards and when y'all getting on your knees praying to God, ask for these things. I don't think there's nothing wrong with asking for the partner that you're looking for.
Starting point is 01:24:52 Ask God to give you that partner. But don't miss your blessing because, you know, once again, to what MD's point was, your blessing may not come in the package that you want. So all of these things
Starting point is 01:25:02 that you're asking for, God may bring you what you're looking for, but it don't come in the package you want.. So all of these things that you're asking for, God may bring you what you're looking for, but it don't come in the package you want. Most women are willing to... That's a lie. Last week, we just had a conversation about 6'6", and you were talking about you want a man that's at least 6'4".
Starting point is 01:25:13 Exactly. I had to have 6 abs. Quoting the devil's numbers. Please run the tape. Please run the tape. Quoting the devil's numbers. I said, I think that that's dumb. Then some women, I'm not going to date a bus driver because a bus driver,
Starting point is 01:25:21 if he owns the company, like, come on. And even with the height, I said, I would prefer you to be be taller but if you fire and you sure i'm open to it jesus i will wait on you for your glory to unfold i will trust that you are guiding my life towards your perfect plan and therefore i have nothing to fear i do not have to fear my weakness or the possibility of making the wrong decisions as long as you hold fast to you and your god you can trust that things are always going to work out for your greater good dear god i pray for this man that i am looking for i pray that his mind stays centered his burden stays light his heart stays pure help me god help me say it say it repeat after me now envy doing that for yourself man i'm telling you that
Starting point is 01:26:00 and we got a few bottles of baby oil and lubricant in his car right now. 800-585-1051. Ask C&E's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's that time again. Ask Charlamagne and DJ Envy anything. Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up. It's time to ask C&E.
Starting point is 01:26:21 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne, the guy we are, The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. We got Russell on the line. Russell, man, what's your question for C&E? What's going on, fellas? My question is, you know, I'm coming up on three years of marriage. I'm starting to notice that, you know, the passion I once was is kind of like fading in and out.
Starting point is 01:26:41 So I just want to know from you two, what are some of the things that you guys did and personal marriages to kind of keep the passion there? And also what you guys did in your personal marriage to keep the passion there as well? You mean the passion between me and Charlamagne? Yeah, you know. I know y'all love each other.
Starting point is 01:26:59 I just want to know what kept the passion there. First of all, ain't no passion between no me and no Zayn. So loud. Russell, Russell, between me and Charlamagne is mad baby oil.
Starting point is 01:27:10 I ain't gonna front. That's what keeps the passion between me and Charlamagne. All right, they gonna use that when your name pop up in that goddamn indictment. When they see you
Starting point is 01:27:17 on one of them ditty tapes, they gonna use the same, okay? And you can't hide you light as that. At all. We remember when you was a rock boy. I wasn't a rock boy. I wasn't a rock boy. Yes, you were. I was. And you can't hide You light his head At all We remember when you Was a Ciroc boy
Starting point is 01:27:25 I wasn't You was a Ciroc boy I wasn't Ciroc boy Yes you was You give Ciroc boy I ain't giving nothing Turn to the back plate boy I ain't giving nothing
Starting point is 01:27:35 He was definitely A Ciroc boy Oh my goodness I think he was seriously Asking y'all Also in your personal marriages You know what are some Of the things that you guys
Starting point is 01:27:44 Did to like Keep the passion there? I'm going to be honest with you, man. I think it's either there or it's not. I love my wife. Me and my wife have been down for each other for 26 years. It's interesting when you grow with a person for that long. We grew up, we were teenagers together.
Starting point is 01:27:59 We were in our 20s together. We were in our 30s together. Now we're in our 40s together. It's just like i i i love her more now than i ever did you know uh i think back then because i love myself more you know so i i honestly would tell you my brother do work on yourself man you know i mean i think when you start doing more work on yourself and you know your first laugh and best love becomes self-love and you start seeing the things in you that you want to see, I think you'll see that in everybody, especially your partner.
Starting point is 01:28:27 And not only that, I would say, you know, what Charlamagne said, absolutely right, but also I would say sometimes you just got to make the time, especially when you start having kids and life starts getting away from you, right, because you're taking your kids here and you're doing this with your kids, and then when you get home, you're tired and you forget about your spouse. You got to make that time, whether it's a date night, whether it's a date night a couple nights a week going to the gym me and my wife we have a great time like we party with each other we go to the gym with each other we uh watch tv she watches the game with me i watch her stupid shows whether it's the real
Starting point is 01:28:58 housewives of whatever because it's that intimate time it's not just be it's being with each other and we joke and my wife is my best friend. I tell everybody all the time, if you tell me something, I'm telling her. It is what it is. Like, that is my homie, that is my best friend.
Starting point is 01:29:11 But make those times where it's just special, where it's just you and her and you can focus on her. I agree with Envy, but what if you're spending that time and you realize, I don't like this person.
Starting point is 01:29:19 What if you're spending that time and you realize the passion's not there? Well, that's another situation. Can you come back from that, though? I always think about that. I don't think so. I think it's either you got it or you don't. If there's reasons why the passion is not there
Starting point is 01:29:30 then yes, I think you can. This young man on the radio, his problem is he's been looking at other women on Instagram. Is that what it is? Tell the truth. You've been looking at other women on Instagram. Tell the truth. You've been looking at other women on Instagram and your eyes start to wander.

We have a one-year-old, so we're just adjusting to parenthood. To your point, I do agree with you, Envy, in a sense of trying to find those individual times for date night but to your point

By the way, because of those free cups, and because of the baby oil and lubricant that they found at Diddy House, you cannot think of baby oil without thinking about buttholes. You are correct. Yeah, you can't at all now what you said but they do you might got a rebrand I don't even know what they were

So Fat Man Scoop, there has been an update uh the medical examiner's office uh has officially determined his cause of death uh he died from heart disease now you guys remember last month while performing in connecticut he collapsed on stage um and one of his reps at the time came out and said that the only thing different that he had done prior to that was have an energy drink um so there were conversations around was it heart related was it not and now we know um officially that it was heart related
Starting point is 01:33:08 uh the official cause of death for the performer was hypertensive and something cardiovascular cardiovascular disease high blood pressure right yes um and i think that's the i think that's the yeah and blockage of the arteries and that's a statement from the spokesperson for the Connecticut Medical Examiner's Office.

Starting point is 01:36:51 nowadays but anyway somebody commented on this and said cardi has clearly reached her breaking breaking point right remember i was talking to you guys earlier about the offset text or comments so the one that has people upset um is he's basically online trying to play her he said the fact that you keep going talking about cardi shows your hurt leave me alone don't you got a new guy basically aren't we divorced everybody can see i don't want you it's okay i'm not talking about this no more all love you'll be calling me after a couple months you my bm i won so cardi gets on her insta story and she posts a text message conversation with her and offset and he's asking her you don't want me
Starting point is 01:37:25 she says not really he says are you with somebody else she said basically like and please leave me alone have a good night so she's trying to show like oh he does want me whatever whatever so now you know the conversation is it's like she's doing too much to prove that she's the she can walk away and be cool in this situation then other people are saying i hope that cardi did cheat and i hope that it was amazing because he's put her through so much at this point and i'm sitting here thinking about it and honestly i'm not mad at cardi for taking this online no more i'm not i feel like she's been publicly embarrassed a lot and if they're going to figure it out at this point i don't think that they will but if she chooses to oh well and if she doesn't choose to oh well but
Starting point is 01:38:03 he embarrasses her so much i'm i'm i'm just tired of it so i'm with the people on the side of if this is how she has to get it off this time around go ahead and do your thing girl i want everybody to stop listening to social media i want everybody to stop uh performing for social media i don't care what social media thinks of cardi and offset going back and forth because it truthfully is not our business even though they're making it our business. We in the chat. They should keep that amongst each other because once again, they're going to be raising kids together in the future. But how do you keep it? And you can't unsay any of these things.
Starting point is 01:38:35 You cannot. And I was thinking about this. One of the one of Offset's older kids, his son, which Cardi, you know, takes in as her son, too, is older to the point where I'm sure he he's in school now. He's an older kid. So he's probably having to hear about this but how do you not take it to the internet when a lot of the things that he's done leading up to this point are so public and make it to the internet like what what does she do you know like how do you not it's there already it's such a tough situation to be in i just want to know who these women are that's charging two thousand they should be charging 2k rent it's like thirty five hundred dollars 2k poom poom is crazy 2k poom poom shouldn't need no baby oil you are absolutely right lauren it better come wet stay
Starting point is 01:39:17 wet if it used to be 500 in inflation to get the 2k i wish I would have to pay you two grand and buy the baby oil. 2K is... What is wrong with y'all? That is just what the mess is going on. How much pussy going for it if the poom poom is 2K?
Starting point is 01:39:35 They said you should know. Now you're not a source close. You see why I talk to her the way I talk to her? I want y'all to write that one down I'm not going to strike back now but when I strike back just keep that mark
Starting point is 01:39:50 I don't like when people take stuff to the internet who writing it down no I got a good one I'm just not going to use it now I had a surprise for you coming your birthday on the way I have a surprise for you my birthday is it a nice gift remember the last remember where he got me for my birthday it's something you need it's something I think you need what do I need you don't remember the gift he got me that went viral oh the cake with the butt that wasn't a cake he needed that but I got something that you need. Okay, I mean, you need it.
Starting point is 01:40:25 All right. Everybody sees that you need it. Don't worry. Are you getting like mail strippers or like a prostitute or something? I don't think it's going to be that. You don't need that. Because I don't need that. That's what you want.
