And so I made sure this morning I got it all out because I know it ain't going to be none of that until about 11 o'clock. Yeah, this is ridiculous, but happy Halloween, everybody. It's not ridiculous. The reason I love Halloween is because, you know,
Starting point is 00:02:08 when you get older and, you know, you got a lot of childhood things that you love that you never let go of. For me, it's comic books. You get to go out there and cosplay as your favorite

Starting point is 00:02:24 What you mean? Well, see, the reason I started wearing the mask is because it was usually cold Halloween, and I was freezing, so I thought I'd wear the mask. But it's going to be hot

I actually went to the same bar to watch the game again. They were up 5-0 and then I left the bar. I went home and by the time I got home,
Starting point is 00:04:47 my daughter's boyfriend was there, Andrew. He was like, ha ha ha. I'm like, ha ha what? We up 5-0. We gonna win this today? He was like, no. You don't know? I said, no what? He's like, the score is 5-5. Y'all had three errors. So they scored five unearned runs. So if you don't know, they look like a little league team in the fifth inning. When I mean
Starting point is 00:05:04 dropping pop-ups, the pitching not covering first base. They were throwing, what, less than 10 feet away, and he threw it to the ground. It was just disgusting and nasty. But congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers. I have no idea what you're talking about, but they should have been on steroids. That's number one. Congratulations to the Dodgers. The Dodgers beat the Yankees last night.
Starting point is 00:05:20 And they don't deserve to win after they robbed Mookie. Them two white men assaulted Mookie the way that they did. That was karma, damn it. Yeah, don't do that to little Mook Mook. That's right. Anyway, well, good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Happy Halloween, y'all.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Happy Halloween, Morgan. Who are you? I'm such a doll, you know. You don't see the Chucky resemblance? Oh, okay. I'm a good guy. Yes. Okay, so, yes, the countdown is on with Election Day,
Starting point is 00:05:46 Tuesday, November 5th. What, now six days away, and on top of the front page news is making sure you exercise your right to vote. So, former President Donald Trump, he showed up to his most recent campaign event in a MAGA-themed garbage truck. The former president spoke on Wednesday at a rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, which Wisconsin is a swing state where he rode in on a garbage truck that he said was, quote, in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden. Trump rode in on that truck in an effort to draw attention to comments made by President Biden. What a way to flip it. Who called his supporters garbage. Biden said he was referring to a joke made by a comedian at a Trump rally who called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage. Biden said he was referring to a joke made by a comedian at a Trump rally who called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage. But Trump has then flipped the script. So he rallied in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, where he responded to the president's comments about calling his
Starting point is 00:06:36 supporters garbage. Let's hear from Trump's rally in North Carolina. Joe Biden finally said what he and Kamala really think of our supporters. He called them garbage. You know what? The truth is they've treated our whole country like garbage, whether they meant to or not, because they're grossly incompetent people. For the past nine years, Kamala and her party have called us racists, bigots, fascists, depl deplorables irredeemables nazis and they've called me hitler actually that was your running mate jd vance the thing i don't understand right like we all know it's a double standard when it comes to donald trump and everybody else but it's not even just a double standard it's just a short-term memory everybody has like donald trump literally just called america a garbage can like last week like like like literally like literally just called America a garbage can like last week. Like literally, like literally just called America a garbage can last week.
Starting point is 00:07:28 So it's just amazing to me. And that's not just a double standard that exists. It's just a short term memory. Everybody has just people seem to forget everything Donald Trump has done. Even him saying that, you know, they call me a fascist. Trump, you called him fascist, too. Like what? What do we what are we doing here?
Starting point is 00:07:43 But any type of motion that Trump feels like he can use he's gonna use right yeah and biden by when biden said his supporters were trash okay we'll get the garbage truck and somebody just need to sit by the down we got this body i know that but i don't have a problem i don't have a problem with uh you know donald trump doing that the problem i have is that democrats never know how to respond and the media never knows how to respond because he's done the exact same things he's accusing people of but now this just takes up all the headlines. Donald Trump pulls up in a garbage truck.
Starting point is 00:08:12 What about Donald Trump saying America was a trash can just last week? But it's because pulling up in a garbage truck is a bigger antic. That's louder. So even if they respond, the garbage truck is going to go more viral. Yeah, he's definitely trolling. But Trump told the crowd that of course they're not garbage and it's biden and kamala harris who treat them like a subhuman because they're voting for him meanwhile the white um the white house uh has tried to distance
Starting point is 00:08:35 themselves from biden's comments on press secretary not so much well they're they're you know they're clarifying the the comments press secretary kareem Jean-Pierre spoke about what President Biden meant to say in regards to this. So let's hear from White House Press Secretary K.J.P. So he was regarding to the comedian and I quote, I refer to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by Trump's supporter at his Madison Square Garden rally as garbage. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That's all I meant to say. The comments, the comments at the rally don't reflect who we are as a nation. Listen, if you think Puerto Rico is garbage, you're garbage.
Starting point is 00:09:23 It's that simple. What are we talking about here, garbage. It's that simple. What are we talking about here, man? It's pretty simple. What are we talking about, yo? I was going to say, well, we can move on because I know we got to wrap anyways. But that's just front page news for 6 a.m. at 7 a.m. We'll get caught up with what's going on with VP Harris on the campaign trail. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Sam, come help me out, Sam. Now, as I was watching the game last night, I was, like I said, watching the first five innings. I didn't see any commercials. So did they not run a commercial with me and Charlemagne on it? All right. Maybe they ran out of money. I don't know. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:09:53 I didn't see it last night. Unless they got something new they about to drop. Something new they about to drop. Yeah. Well, our lawyers have been sending a lot of legal letters. I thought they'd be listening now at the bottom of the ninth inning. Yeah, pretty much. All right.

Starting point is 00:12:10 Man, good morning. What's up, Mike? I was born in Omaha, but I've been here for a while. Your phone sounds crazy, Mike. I've been here since 85. Yeah, I listen to the 85 South Show, too. That's what he said? No, I don't think he said that.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Shauna. Hey, Shauna, good morning. Good morning. I'm calling from South Carolina. How are y'all? Hey, what part of
Starting point is 00:12:31 South Carolina are you from? Charleston. 843, what's happening? That's home. Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:12:37 There's a lot going on down here recently. What happened? There's a whole lot. It's just crazy. I don't even need to get into it. But I was even need to get into it. But I was just calling to get off my chest that recently y'all have been talking about how nobody is waving their finger at the white women for not voting how they need to be voting.
Starting point is 00:12:57 That's right. I want to be that person because Trump is not for women in general, so I don't understand why women in general would even want to vote for somebody that doesn't have our rights in general in the forefront of their mind. Like, even abortion rights aside, like, he doesn't have fertility rights or privacy, any of that at the forefront of his mind. So, like, why are you considering somebody that wants to vote that, that wants to, like, put that on the chopping block? Are you a white that wants to vote that wants to, like, put that on the chopping block? Are you a white woman? I am. Well, 52 percent of white women voted for Trump in 2016, 55 percent in 2020. I would hope that number is significantly lower this year.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I do, too. Fortunately, at least for the people that I have spoken to, I see that number decreasing. For me and my household, I know who we're voting for, and it is for Madam President. That's great. Okay. Because y'all voted, Shauna.
Starting point is 00:13:54 You definitely voted against your own interests in 2016. That's why he was able to put all those Supreme Court judges on, and that's why Roe v. Wade got overturned. So don't make that mistake this year. Hopefully, hopefully not. Last year was my first year to be able to vote. We voted in our interest, me and my household.
Starting point is 00:14:11 This is only our second election. So we've only been able to vote for the last two election years. And seeing our rights on the chopping block, those are those years. Oh, so you young, you 22. I'm 25. 25, okay. So I've only been able to go twice. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Well, thank you, Mama. Thank you. Let's go, white women. Get it off your chest. I never heard you say that. Let's go, white women. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:14:36 If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Ray, Ray, Ray. Yo, Charlemagne. Denzy, what up? Are we live?
Starting point is 00:14:49 This is your time to get it off your chest. I got an indoor pool, an outdoor pool. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. We can get on the phone right now. He'll tell you what it is. Are we live? Hello, who's this? Hello.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Hey, what's your name, bro? My name is Isaiah. Isaiah, what's up, bro? Get it off your chest, man. Ain't nothing, man. I mean, I ain't really that excited for Halloween. I'm just doing it because I got a daughter. She's all excited.
Starting point is 00:15:15 How is your daughter? You should be excited because she's excited, brother. My daughter's seven, and that's why I'm excited. But other than that, I can't. I ain't brought no candy. I'm hoping the houses I go to, they got candy. You don't got a costume? No, I'm going to get a mask. I'm like 7-E than that, I can't. I ain't brought no candy. I'm hoping the houses I go to, they got candy. You don't got a costume? No, I'm going to get a mask.
Starting point is 00:15:28 I'm like 7-Eleven or something like that. Or maybe I can make one real quick. I'm going to be honest with you, man. Just go as yourself, man. Be a clown. Because you sound like a clown right now. Damn it, man. He might not be able to afford it.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I mean, I'm just celebrating for my daughter. Well, get more excited. Have more enthusiasm for her then. Yeah, that's right. Man. Listen, man. I'm throwing my back. At least I ain't cancel Halloween and trying to say some religion stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:49 I'm doing it, you know? I ain't hear nothing you say just now. I got my mask on, man. I barely can hear you, bro. At least he ain't cancel Halloween in his household because of religious reasons. Oh, I grew up Jehovah Witness. I grew up Jehovah Witness,
Starting point is 00:16:01 so that ain't no excuse. I'm making up for years of Halloweens that I didn't get. We can tell. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God, it makes so much sense. Hello? Who's this? Hey, peace and blessings, man.
Starting point is 00:16:12 What's going on? Hey. What's up? Sean Stone. Sean Stone. What's up, brother? Hey, good morning, Sean, man. Good morning, Envy.
Starting point is 00:16:19 And good morning, Lauren LaRosa. Good morning. How you doing? How did you feel when Trump pulled up in the garbage truck, brother? Hey, man. Salute that guy pulling up in the garbage truck, man. I like that because, you know, I'm in the garbage truck right now myself. That's cultural appropriation.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Donald Trump was culturally appropriating and you saluting that. What culture is synonymous with a garbage truck? Garbage truck people. Garbage truck people. I want to shout out all the sanitation drivers out there. But listen, hey, gentlemen, let me ask you a quick question. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Would you guys ever have Donald Trump on the breakfast club so you guys could grill him? Of course. Yeah, of course. Of course. So why you guys never invited him up here?
Starting point is 00:17:00 How you know we haven't? Why you just assuming things? Why you just saying things that ain't true? So he declined and sent the white lady. what's her name not only did he get a formal request he's actually had people reach out to us yeah and you know and we've said yeah quite a few times but he never came they said they went through the vetting process all that but we haven't heard anything okay okay as long as As long as you guys invite him, you know what I mean? That's cool.
Starting point is 00:17:26 If he decides not to come, I don't know why not. Sean, I want you to listen. Sean, listen, once again, not only was he invited, they asked us quite a few times. Yes. And we said yes. Yes. And nothing came of it. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:17:40 That's crazy. That's crazy. But also, I want to talk about Little Dirt. I don't understand these rappers. You come out of the ghetto, you start making money, and you're not appreciating your blessing that God blessed you with, and you're committing crime and then putting it in your song. I don't understand that.
Starting point is 00:17:57 If you're going to slide, slide for your kids. Make sure they good. Make sure your wife is good. Make sure things at home is good. So I really don't understand these rappers, rappers man I was really rooting for Lil Durk But damn bro Well he's innocent until proven guilty Yep
Starting point is 00:18:12 Hey These dudes be committing crime And putting in their song You feel me He's innocent until proven guilty Songs sometimes can be considered as arts And we can't make a judgment Until we hear all the details, brother.
Starting point is 00:18:25 That's what anybody's charged. Envy. Somebody could get shot by the tree, and one of these rappers would be like, oh, yeah, I shot him by the tree. Yo, Didi. Well, Sean, I remember when Trav, who's our friend, but he's a caller who calls up here.
Starting point is 00:18:43 He's gay. He said in his diss record, you tried to holla at him, and he let you taste it. Is that true? That might be true then, because he just said, if they put it in a rap, it's true. Is that true? He was rooting for you.
Starting point is 00:18:56 You know what? That might be true. You know why it would never be true? He put it in a rap. It's true. Because people in the Breakfast Club been hearing me for 15 years. They know I'm not gay. We don't know that.
Starting point is 00:19:07 We don't know nothing about that. We don't know what you're doing in your house. Lauren, why you be rapping with Chief Scott? I don't know. I especially don't know. Now all of a sudden you don't want to believe rap lyrics. Trav says you tasted it. I would listen, guys.

I never wanted nothing more for you.
Starting point is 00:23:06 When I come in here with that leaf blower tomorrow. All right. All right. So, a new Diddy update. So, remember we had talked a bit about Kalana Harper, who was a part of Dirty Money with Dawn Richard, because Dawn Richard had filed a lawsuit. And in the lawsuit, she named Ms. Harper like 33 times, over 30 times, saying that Ms. Harper witnessed a lot
Starting point is 00:23:25 of the things that dawn said she went through she said dawn said that they saw diddy abuse cassie allegedly um hit her hit cassie throw cassie against the wall they uh she also alleged that she had been locked in a car and that um remember she was locked in that like a bad boy like maybach when puffy got upset that she was late to the studio and that she had to call her dad yep and miss harper was in the car but basically a lot of the abuse that she is filing in her or claiming her lawsuit she's saying hey she was right there and she saw it all now kalana is speaking out uh she spoke out on trapper's anonymous podcast and she talked a lot about the dawn richards filing let's take a listen got named quite a few times in Dawn's lawsuit. What was it like finding that out when you woke up?
Starting point is 00:24:06 I was angry. I was pissed. I'm working on my project. I'm at the end of it. And then all of a sudden, it's like a rip shot. Because Dawn knows me. And she know that all she ever had to do if something was going on was to say something. And it would have been f***ed up.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Like Donkey Kong. Like we would have jumped that a**hole. We wouldong like we would jump that but that wasn't the case i think she just possibly thought puff gave me more than her and she just didn't have that but that wasn't how that went i think it's i don't want to say i think maybe dawn is um i don't know but i will say broke would make you they would do anything for money and um i just want what she's saying to be the truth i never understood the phrase it's on like donkey kong because on don't wrong rhyme with kong and i don't remember donkey kong being on like that he played it wasn't on like mike dyson punch out of mario or tecmo bowl ain't that the game where like he would jump on everything
Starting point is 00:25:01 donkey kong yeah they didn't jump on maybe it was like on like maybe okay and what do you call you call the kalina it's kalina i think it's kalina kalina okay i'm sorry i don't i think so i think her name is kalina i'm gonna just call her miss harper you guys know who i'm talking about um she's the other member from dirty money but i will mention too remember when diddy went to go try and get that bell they mentioned that he had reached out to her like over 50 times she also talked about that too just real quickly she said that like she kind of like almost like laughed about it a bit like she
Starting point is 00:25:32 was saying like oh yeah he got in trouble for calling me all these times and she was saying that like there were a bunch of other different people that called her and that you know like it was almost put in a way of her saying at the time when everything was happening of course he would have called me like so she she didn't say he was threatening he just said that no there was no she
Starting point is 00:25:49 in this video she is not she's basically saying i didn't see any of that stuff that dawn is saying if i did i would have stuck up for her because she talks about her how in her past some of her family members were abusive both uh you know sexually and emotionally and all that so she wouldn't have stood for that is what she was saying but then she also talks about cassie um because she's asked how was her relationship with cassie let's take a listen cassie lover to death naive like getting high she likes partying she liked that was the thing she's a moral she was well taken care of you told me a story about going to an apartment one time yeah which, which one? The f***ing one that looked like a closet? That all-white
Starting point is 00:26:28 f***ing condo in New York that's just glass with glass stairs escalating up the f***ing 70 foot ceiling, 100 foot ceiling. Wild s***. Spoiled. I'm not saying Cassie is not deserving of any of these things, but this was her life.
Starting point is 00:26:49 Yeah, so for this part... What is this is this interview about yo let me tell you okay so I want to just say it and I when I was watching I'm like is she okay um she didn't it was times where she was like it she just didn't appear to be fully all the way there but the interview was basically her speaking out because no one has really heard from her since Dawn's lawsuit and since they made those claims in court that she was called all those times by puffy right in my opinion and this is just my opinion this lawsuit was her taking up for puffy saying like he's the man the mobile every yeah this interview this uh everybody enjoyed him while he was here and now everybody is trying to get money and she at the same time says like i'm not trying to take away anybody that's claiming something happened to them like she called cassie like a hero and what she's like if this
Starting point is 00:27:27 is her being a hero more power to her but then she also says Cassie was just like it just made it was very contradictory the thing I don't understand about stuff like this so you know you say all these things and you try to paint this picture about somebody like Cassie we all still saw Cassie get abused it's like I don't understand. What are you trying to say here? Are you trying to say that you know you should put up with that type of abuse because of the lifestyle you was living? I don't know. I'm just asking. I haven't watched
Starting point is 00:27:51 this interview. That's what I took from it because at the same time that she said Cassie had a great life. She was spoiled. She also said she saw the video but she was not around when any of that happened and it's like and she literally said she's like but at the same time I wish Cassie would have talked to cassie would have talked about the good stuff like because she went back to puff after no just because somebody does something good for you
Starting point is 00:28:12 does not mean they are good for you i want y'all all to remember that lesson in life period just because somebody does something good for you doesn't mean that they are good for you and it's just mind-boggling to me that everybody keep backing like the world didn't see a video of diddy beating yeah we we definitely seen the video but this is what i don't understand people say cassie should be talking about the good stuff cassie hasn't said anything at all cassie hasn't did an interview cassie hasn't made a statement the only thing that she did was the lawsuit that we all seen i don't have to say that's what i'm saying she hasn't said anything she shouldn't have to. I mean, people are looking for... Even with Kalina, I mean, she's going to have to testify in trial.
Starting point is 00:28:49 You know what I mean? So it's like the more you talk, the more they're going to say, okay, well, I want you to say that on the stand because she's inserting herself into this. You do, and I've said this earlier already. I thought some of the claims too that she made in here,
Starting point is 00:28:58 I'm like, ooh, she... Like, legally, I wouldn't have got on the platform and said that just because any person you're claiming it about can come for you too. And that's my point. But I've said this already numerous times throughout this whole situation. The reason you can't give people will not give Diddy the benefit of the doubt
Starting point is 00:29:14 about anything. Is that video? Because he initially lied about Cassie, Cassie's claims. And then the video came up. So everybody should just shut up. And that's what Busta Rhymes said. Everybody should just shut up.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Everybody. Shut up until, let it go to court. Like, because nobody knows anything. And like you said, so everybody should just shut up and that's what Busta Rhymes said everybody should just everybody shut up until let it go to court like because nobody knows anything and like you said nobody has to talk Cassie doesn't have to say anything yeah Cassie is not gonna talk
Starting point is 00:29:32 about the good or the bad she hasn't said anything and I'm not coming to nobody's defense if you already got caught in a huge lie like that it's just common sense to me well so you got
Starting point is 00:29:43 yep that's it for this hour when are you gonna put your costume on it's halloween damn it you got it on i'm going to put what am i a delaware doodoo butt can i say the a word on it yes no which one captain you you know what i called you earlier you can't put the whole thing no far from amazing another a word captain yeah captain ass you can say my costume will be later, guys.

I don't want to hear that. Let's talk until you do it. All right. Well, when we come back, we got front page news. Morgan Wood will be joining us. And then Erykah Badu will be our...

Starting point is 00:30:32 Law and La Rosa filling in for Jess. And let's get back to some front page news. Yes, the Yankees lost last night. Congratulations to the LA Dodgers. 4-1. It wasn't a sweep. We actually should have won last night. But in the fifth inning, the Yankees looked like a little big team. Ah, shut up. If it was a spl1. It wasn't a sweep. We actually should have won last night, but in the fifth inning, the Yankees looked like
Starting point is 00:30:46 a little big team. Ah, shut up. If it was a spliff. It wasn't. Everybody thought it was going to get swept. It's like a winner's a winner. You said that earlier this week. A winner's a loss.

Starting point is 00:30:59 All right. The silent salute to the Dodgers. Dropping the clues bombs to the Dodgers. The West Coast really has had an amazing year. This has been the West Coast's year. This has been L.A.'s year, and it's not even close. All right, well, let's get into some front-page news. What up, Morgan?
Starting point is 00:31:09 Tyler, the Creator just sold 250,000. Yes. I think they said more, you might say, like up to 300 the first week. West Coast, man. Sheesh, chromacopia. All right, so good morning, y'all. Envy, Charlamagne, Lauren, how y'all feeling? Good?
Starting point is 00:31:22 Good morning. Peace, Morgan. Ooh, all right, so the countdown is on with Election Day, Tuesday, November 5th, six days away. On top of your front page news, make sure you exercise your right to vote. So, Vice President Kamala Harris, she's entered the chat addressing the comment made by President Biden where he called Trump supporters garbage. And here's what she had to say in regards to that. Let's jump into BP Harris's comments on Biden's garbage comments.
Starting point is 00:31:46 Listen, I think that, first of all, he clarified his comments. But let me be clear, I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for. You heard my speech last night and continuously throughout my career. I believe that the work that I do is about representing all the people, whether they support me or not. And as president of the United States, I will be a president for all Americans, whether you vote for me or not. That's what a president is supposed to do. She's very presidential. You know what I mean? Like she's going to be a president for all people, whether they support her or not, whether they vote for her or not. Yes, she is very clear about, you know, that level of respect that she has for all Americans. Now, she was on the campaign trail in the battleground state of Wisconsin as well, saying it's good to be back in a town where she spent several years of her childhood.
Starting point is 00:32:38 She continued to touch on her own life, saying she grew up in a working family, so she understands the challenges facing the middle class right now. She promised her proposed economic plan, excuse me, would uplift the middle class and give over 100 million Americans a tax cut while also slamming Donald Trump in Wisconsin. Let's hear those comments from BP Harris in Wisconsin. If he is elected, it's not going to happen, but if he were elected, on day one, Donald Trump would walk into that office with an enemies list you know he talks about the enemies from within when i am elected i will walk in with a to-do list focused on your so her rally was also briefly interrupted by uh pro
Starting point is 00:33:23 palestinian protesters to which she used her famous infamous line. You know, she did respond to them saying that she agrees that the war in Gaza needs to end and hostages need to be released. But I'm speaking. So she used that infamous line. Now, Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance, he'll be back in central Pennsylvania this weekend. Donald Trump says Vance will host a rally in New York on Sunday. Details about that event have not been released as of yet. Harris is also expected to make stops in Pennsylvania. And she's also going to stay in D.C. on election night.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Sources close to the Harris-Walls campaign say the Democratic presidential nominee will be holding an event at Howard University, her HBCU, her alma mater, where she graduated in 1986. Howard University officials say classes will be held remotely on Monday and the campus will be closed on Tuesday for Election Day. Is that confirmed yet? This is, according to a source close to the campaign, the Harris-Walls campaign, that that's where she will be as totals roll in. Now, to your point, in the last few days, we know that maybe the results may not be may not come down on that night, election night. So but yes, that is where she is expected to be on election night. Now, sources say the Breakfast Club and the Native Land podcast, which is Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross,
Starting point is 00:34:46 Andrew Gillum, they may be broadcasting from Howard University on election night as well. That's what sources say. I don't know. That's what sources say. So I can't confirm. I can't confirm yet. But that's what sources say. Okay, so you're putting the pieces together.
Starting point is 00:35:02 I see you there. I see you there. So as for tonight, Harris and Trump will be in Arizona spending their Halloween in Arizona. She will be in Phoenix rallying with Mexican-American band Los Tigros de Norte. While Trump will be holding a rally in Glendale with Tucker Carlson. Of course, they'll also be in Nevada today as well. And Trump will also be visiting New Mexico. So very busy on the campaign trail for the candidates, the presidential candidates.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Let's switch gears to a little bit of Hollywood. I never heard of that band, but they sound tasty. I mean, I like Mexican food. Los Tigres del Norte. Man, bring the salsa. Okay. Bring the salsa, you crazy. All right, So Halloween costumes.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Some Halloween costumes are evergreen like princesses and pirates, but others come and go with pop culture fads. So, for example, this year's most popular costumes, Marvel's Deadpool and Wolverine are most popular this year across the country following a massive following massive, uh, blockbuster film over the, uh, summer minions from despicable me are also up this year. Uh, of course that movie,
Starting point is 00:36:12 um, it was very, uh, popular as well as Pixar's inside out. So the variety of emotions. So if you're looking for a group costume to do, uh, the variety of motions,
Starting point is 00:36:20 um, as far as real people, people are going as Taylor Swift. Um, um, that's a popular costume and shrunken Bob from beetlejuice is also extremely popular this year in addition to the australian break dancer who became a viral sensation olympics oh my girl what was her name nobody knows i would just like the record to show that i have been a wolverine fan my whole life that's why i have a wolverine tattoo uh on my right arm which I got when I was 18 years old
Starting point is 00:36:45 when tattoos were illegal in South Carolina. And I have Wolverine holding a microphone in his hand. And the reason I've always been attracted to Wolverine was because of his healing powers.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Before I leave you guys, I just want to let you know, since you were talking about, you know, being a kid in South Carolina, what is the age limit for trick-or-treating? What do you guys think?
Starting point is 00:37:02 The age limit? Is there one? Is there an age limit for trick-or-treating? I think so. think? The age limit? Is there one? Is there an age limit for trick-or-treating? I think so. No, I didn't think so. You, as an adult with no kids, just going to houses? I got so many kids, we just never stop. So according to a survey from Fairleigh Dickinson University in New Jersey,
Starting point is 00:37:17 most Americans say kids should stop trick-or-treating by 13 and a half years old. At least 25% say kids should go out trick-or-treating as long as they like. Meantime, when it comes to the best cities to trick-or-treat in for Halloween, Wallet Hub says New York City is the best and Jersey City and New Jersey comes in second. So shout out to y'all up there in that tri-state area.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Yeah, Jersey and New York is the best. I would have to agree. I was going to say, check that candy though. You know what's crazy? I don't even think we let our kids eat the candy to be honest with you. It's almost just like a sport at this point. They don't eat the candy no more? I don't trust these people out here. Nah, what we usually do is we just buy candy and then
Starting point is 00:37:55 by the time they get home it's too late anyway so we just throw it out and just replace it with the candy we got already. Alright, well that's your front page news.

Starting point is 00:38:52 building the icon living yes miss erica badu welcome back peace peace peace how you feeling exquisite there you go all right congratulations on receiving the CFDA Fashion Icon Award. Oh, thank you very, very much. I have no idea what that means, but I feel like you deserve all the awards. So, congrats. They say, I found out it's the Oscar of fashion. Really? So, that award means a lot to people in the fashion industry and to us as artists as well.
Starting point is 00:39:22 You know, creators who are- I love artists, Bella. Trying to, you know evolve our our culture okay you know so that means a lot to be recognized it's always felt like you had an effortless style do you really put a lot of thought into how you how you dress sometimes okay you know sometimes i do and sometimes it's just grace now you said during your speech that this was an award that you wanted for a long time was that true that long That long? You said as a child? Absolutely. Since, you know, I didn't even know that you could get an award for that. But just wanted to be recognized for the canvas that I create when I go out. I mean, it's really important to me.
Starting point is 00:39:56 It's my therapy. You know, I can't leave without having my, like I said in the speech, you know, it's just something that came with my head. You know, it's a nagging thing. And sometimes when I don't try really hard, it sometimes gracefully comes together. I guess maybe because of my intention. The fashion gods gave me the keys out here in these streets. You talked about your best friend who accompanied you to the awards.
Starting point is 00:40:22 And Alfredo, him introducing you to a lot of the fashion houses and stuff like that were fashion houses always like open and like rushing to support you and all of your creative ideas or did you have that was there a fight because a lot of artists talk about it being a fight trying to get into the couture houses you know I was out since 1997 and social media was really the opening to a lot of these relationships because they could now directly get to the artist where they probably didn't know how to get to the ones that they wanted to feature before. The first person that reached out to me was Tom Ford.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Tom Ford wanted me to do a perfume at White Patchouli, which was his natural incense flavors. What year was this? This was 2002, maybe. Oh this this was 2002 2002 yeah so that's tom ford and tom ford's from texas as well so we kind of formed a bond i guess as i evolved my style other uh houses or artists because it's really the creative director yes the person he is the he is the house at the time because his vision is trusted most and they started you know kind of paying attention to
Starting point is 00:41:30 you know the godliness or the freeness or the hobo chicness it's been called all kinds of things next was Roberto Tici and he was uh the creative director of Givenchy at the time and that was my first full campaign and he let me co-style with him put things together and I think it just after that I was kind of you know I was on the radar for certain things definitely the page to go to if you want to know what's next right and how do you pick like the other day at the CFDA awards you were in Tom Brown how do you pick which designers and which houses now you want to work with because I'm sure they're all banging you can do anything you want now right in um I picked Tom specifically for this event because he's the chairman of the event yes and he's he's also a very very good friend of mine and his art
Starting point is 00:42:19 is just so amazing so I thought since I was being honored I would also honor him by wearing one of his pieces and I chose one from runway a really beautiful architectural shape real pretty and I said but I need something futuristic ancient to go on top and um I saw this AI I think he saw this post this morning I'm not sure but I saw this AI rendering of this this headpiece and I reached out to the person and I told him this is really beautiful I would love to challenge a designer to bring this to life in the 5d world 4d world he said okay so I called a friend Chris Habana who does a lot of crafting amazing jeweler and he said yes and he had three days and he pulled a team together
Starting point is 00:43:06 and they did some 3D printing to try to really... It's amazing. It's amazing. Do you remember where you were at when you got the call that you was getting the CFDA? I was at home and my agency forwarded me the email. I was like, wow.
Starting point is 00:43:22 It's good stuff. It's good. Did you immediately know what you was going to wear? Did you see that vision? Absolutely not. Absolutely not. This thing was three weeks away. I didn't know I was going to wear it tomorrow. You've done capsules before with people and collaborated.
Starting point is 00:43:38 You ever thought about doing your whole line? Like a full clothing line from Erykah Badu from Ruta to Tuta and everything in between. I have thought about that. I had a chance to practice that with Marnie and Francesco Riso. We did a collab, Marnie and Badu, last year. A lot of things happened for me in fashion last year. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:59 You know, there was the last two years. It was my first fashion week. So that's when I really started to catch the bug. And I met Francesco because we went to the Met Ball together. And we drew up some things and talked about some things
Starting point is 00:44:16 and had a capsule line that came out. And these sleeves are part of it. The collab was everywhere. It was? Yes, everybody was in y'all collab and marnie that was your first fashion week yes oh like you attending or like what do you mean by that yeah it was my first fashion week in 2023 yeah wow and that was so during that time that that collab is no 22 is that collab the collab when you got to work with your daughter Puma too? With Marnie?
Starting point is 00:44:46 Or was it? Yes. Okay. Yes. And how did that feel? Because like, okay, we see LeBron and Ronnie on the court in their life, you know, but like this is your lane and now your daughter's coming into it. Y'all are working with a fashion house. How did you feel just doing that with her?
Starting point is 00:44:59 It was surreal. It was a dream, you know, because Puma is such an individual person that I didn't know what direction she wanted to go in and I still don't you know she's she's 20 so she's kind of finding her way and sometimes when your kid is an artist they don't want to follow your shadow yeah they want to find their own thing but she was cool with supporting me and standing beside me. And she was like, Mom, I don't care. This is for you. So would you do your own line?
Starting point is 00:45:30 Do you want to do your line? That's not something that's in your closet right now. Absolutely. Would you have the time for it? Oh, yeah. I would make time. I saw online you were doing some interviews just after the awards and you were in some Jordans. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:43 That was a Jordan-Virgil collab? No, Virgil collab no no okay it was not true then because they were saying it was like an unreleased it was an unreleased one but it wasn't Virgil it was Shoe Surgeon got you okay yeah people just give you like how do you get your hands on people people online were going crazy over the collab. They were trying to figure out how you even got the shoes. Right. Showed up at my door one day. Yo. I was like, yo.
Starting point is 00:46:13 All my fashion blog pages are literally trying to figure out. Shoot. Y'all zoomed in on everything? I zoomed in. Because I'm like, I don't even see. What's up, y'all? This is Questlove. And I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records.

Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.
Starting point is 00:47:22 Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Any of Virgil's like, you know, he has the things
Starting point is 00:47:52 that he does when you know it's him. I'm like, I don't see none of that. She's starting to get busy. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe,
Starting point is 00:47:59 I'm not going to say nothing about that. What? Nothing. What? What? Oh, no. We'll tell y'all another time
Starting point is 00:48:05 when the news come out. That's right. We'll see how you feel about that. All right, we have more with Erykah Badu when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lorna Rosa filling in for Jess and we're still kicking it
Starting point is 00:48:19 with Erykah Badu. Charlamagne? Now, you've always been an artist that's sensitive about your shit. You told us that a long time ago, but you said in your speech at CFDA that it's scary being an
Starting point is 00:48:28 artist in the social media era. So how has social media made that critique worse, I guess? Yeah, it is scary. I mean, I've heard my own kids be afraid to express and share their art. Erykah Badu kids scared to share their art and express
Starting point is 00:48:44 themselves because the audience is so vicious at this point And they have such a huge appetite for blood And they want people to be disciplined and humbled and punished for their success almost It's what it seems like So that's why a lot of kids are afraid to you know share their work or share their art or feel like they have to come in come at it with some kind of armor on and that armor doesn't allow for the art to truly express itself in my opinion so it's a it's a scary time for art we didn't have to do that we didn't have to deal with that you heard the few little
Starting point is 00:49:25 comments and things but those weren't strong enough to penetrate a strong person but these things are now because when people come at you in numbers we've talked about group think so many times it was a prediction that i made with window Seat in 2010, our group think would overshadow art. And it is right now because people can. People can. I think it's very smart to get at the channels. Instead of getting at the bloggers and the people,
Starting point is 00:50:02 we see artists penalizing the channels themselves. And I think that's the smart thing because that's what has to change. If that doesn't, if there's no place to do that, then it won't be done. I agree. Does that make you hesitant to release music? No, not me.
Starting point is 00:50:14 You haven't dropped in 14 years. 14 years? It's been 14 years. 2010. 2015. Oh, 2015? When was the next time you did I Can Make You Put Your Phone Down?
Starting point is 00:50:23 Yeah, 2015. Well, that's 10 years. Oh, okay. 10 years. That was the hotline bling. put your phone down yeah 2015 well that's 10 years oh the okay 10 years that was the hotline yeah but an album
Starting point is 00:50:30 you didn't put out an album since well one reason I don't have to is because I am a performance artist
Starting point is 00:50:37 and I've been doing that constantly for the last 30 years 8 years out 8 months out of the year all year round i do so that's what i love to do i only put out albums when i have something to say like i have something
Starting point is 00:50:53 yeah something pressing to to say or push out but i'm i have more than enough space to get my my art out on stage so it's not totally necessary to put out albums for me. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I would just love to see the vision that God has shown you. Because if you look at your catalog, right, your catalog literally has predicted
Starting point is 00:51:15 where we are now. Yeah. I can only imagine the stuff you're creating right now, how far into the future you're seeing things. Mm-hmm. Me too.
Starting point is 00:51:23 I mean, I'm writing right now now i got a project coming out soon a full album wow but i can't tell y'all about it how soon be biting i just got i ain't gonna i just got goosebumps so how soon it's gonna be soon soon like by end of the year soon or next year soon? We'll see. It's an important one. It's a collab album. Oh, you and another artist? Me and someone, yes. You're not going to say who are you?
Starting point is 00:51:51 You get Andre 3000 to rap again? He's a guy. He's a guy. Just so y'all know. Wow. Do I think he'll rap again? I'd say, is this going to be the collab album that gets him to rap again? And also, you can answer, do you think he'll rap again?
Starting point is 00:52:01 And why would you say, is is this gonna be the collab album because you're assuming that it's him yeah oh yeah i'm asking you can assume whatever you want but i don't know i don't know i don't think he has to he's speaking with with that instrument it's the same thing it admits the same kind of thing yeah the way he make us feel when with bombs over baghdad is the way he makes us feel, man. With Bombs Over Baghdad, it's the way he makes people who are ready for that feel. It's the same thing. It's his energy.
Starting point is 00:52:30 It's his air. It's his wind. I feel it. That's the rap, you know, to me. He rapping to me. That's true. I can see why y'all are twin flames, too, because he was on stage,
Starting point is 00:52:41 and it was one part of the show where he just started going, making all kind of noises, and the crowd was answering part of the show where he just started going making all kind of noises and the crowd was answering him back and then he goes, I wasn't saying He presented you with your CFDA Fashion Icon Award on the way that
Starting point is 00:52:55 I know you reached out to him to have him present to you and you guys had a conversation and he was saying I did, but well, it was a kind of tricky thing i actually reached out to tiana taylor because i think she's next wow okay i think she's i think she has a really good grasp on art and fashion functional art i'm really impressed and inspired by her but i asked her i'd asked and Andre before, but he didn't respond.
Starting point is 00:53:26 And then they came back and told me after I asked Tiana that Andre said yes. And I had to figure out how to maneuver that. Because that meant a lot to her. So I want to tell her, I love you so very much
Starting point is 00:53:42 and I'm so happy that we're friends. And I hope that that did not bring a wedge between us in any way. But that's Andre 3000, girl. Your best friend. You got to talk to people? You got to talk to people to get to him? No. Oh, you just said they came back.
Starting point is 00:53:55 My sister told me that he responded. Got you, got you. No, no. Well, sometimes. It depends how busy he is. I'll follow proper protocol if i have to yeah as an artist when did you realize that you didn't give a you said you're gonna do what you want to do you're gonna put out what you want to put out you don't necessarily have to fit in the
Starting point is 00:54:17 box of every artist you don't have to follow the platform and say this is it, take it, leave it. When did you get to that point? In the contract negotiation. In 1997, 95. It was never a fail? No, I mean, I didn't have to do it. And they didn't have to. I figured it was a partnership. And I was doing the record label a favor. I knew who I was.
Starting point is 00:54:40 I knew what I was getting ready to do. I had a mission. And nothing was going to infiltrate it, not even my own fear and doubts. And I'm still on mission. Best work is still in me. And I have not accomplished whatever that is yet because there's still this feeling of use and greenness and growth. When you look at other artists, what I was saying, names, do you see it in them like they're selling themselves out? I know they're different.
Starting point is 00:55:03 What made me think about it is, you know, when J. Cole beef he came back and said this is not for me people ished on him and said this to any other but that was his assignment and you can't be mad at his assignment even me as a fan was kind of mad he was on a mission right he was on a mission yeah he realized i understand that sometimes i believe that you being on a mission or your assignment is not always to do something heavenly and great and good. Sometimes it's to create some chaos so that you may shake things up. Fertilizer is put into a pot to disturb the roots. It's poisoning them, so they have to move. You can't really judge it.
Starting point is 00:55:40 You don't know what somebody's mission is because it all counts. It's all a matter. And you don't know what journey God got them on. That's right. You don't get Malcolm somebody's mission is because it all counts. It's all a matter. And you don't know what journey God got them on. That's right. You don't get Malcolm X without Malcolm Little. That's right. You don't get Erykah Badu without, I'm trying to think of a street name. You don't get Erykah Badu without Butchie Knife Betty.
Starting point is 00:56:00 There you go. Butchie Knife Betty. That's my new moniker, everybody. All right, we got more with Erykah Badu when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:56:09 We're still kicking with Erykah Badu. Lauren? Were there points, like Bag Lady, I was saying earlier in the room, that I remember when Bag Lady, for me, started hitting differently, and I was listening to it, and it was like, ooh, I get it now. When I was younger, I was just listening to it because it was played in my house and i love the song but i literally remember that feeling for you were there points in your life where you had to be like oh i get it like i feel it bag lady or like
Starting point is 00:56:35 was this song of service for someone else you mean feeling my own song you're feeling your just even before bag lady was created yeah maybe there was a time in your life that you know created or inspired the song. When did you get out of the Bag Lady phase and what did that feel like for you? Lauren's trying to say she has a lot of baggage. Recently, a couple of men have told Lauren that she needs to heal. We are not doing this for Queen, by the way. A couple of men did that to Lauren.
Starting point is 00:56:57 They said, I'll spend a block, but you need to heal. You need to work on yourself. So, what y'all think about the two guys that said it to her? They right. I think they right. She on a journey i told her that she's on a journey and the two men that you respect one of them i respect told you that you need to work on yourself yes as an insult or as encouragement and love the second one i think it was an insult and deflecting the first one about the intention yeah the first one i think it was like he really cares like that's why when he said it I was like okay I hear you know I'm in a point in my life now where I can do the accountability so does he
Starting point is 00:57:31 need to work on himself as well yes he does did does he know yes he does okay cool second one really no like it's he really know he's got to work on himself oh I don't even want nothing to do with that like it's bad but I ask that that because I just feel like as I got older and realized how much you do care, especially emotionally sometimes. Yeah. It weighs into other things and it closes doors or it cuts off relationships or you just miss out on good things. And every time I listen to that song, I'm like, man, how did she know that people was going to need this? You know, I was writing what I felt in my heart. And I did hear it later.
Starting point is 00:58:04 And I'm talking to myself felt in my heart. I did hear it later. I'm talking to myself, my future self. Where were you at at that time in your life when you were talking to your future self? What were the transitions you were trying to make? I think I was transitioning out of a relationship where I was not happy about it. Realizing that I had to leave some things behind, some parts of me behind. It felt like a funeral of sorts because you have a part, you have to die. Every time you evolve, you got to leave it back there.
Starting point is 00:58:32 You want it because it's familiar. And a lot of times we like to resort to the familiar, even if it's toxic. So you have to leave that corpse, that beautiful old you has to be left and you have to walk forward and not look back. That's the hardest part, not leaving the people, but it's leaving
Starting point is 00:58:49 your old ways and you. You're also playing Lucille in the Netflix movie The Piano Lesson. Were you a fan of the play? Absolutely. I went to HBCU, Grambling State University. I was a theater major. I was a thespian.
Starting point is 00:59:06 So we did a lot of August Wilson material. Lorraine Hansberry and a myriad of black artists and playwrights. But we did do that play as well. And Lucille's part is very tiny. But the most important role I played was composing music
Starting point is 00:59:23 for the movie. Malcolm Washington, who is Denzel's son, is directing, and he called me and asked if I would put together some music for it, and I called my very good friend Daniel Jones, God rest his soul. Safe journey, Daniel Jones. He came and put some beautiful pieces together, 1930s, and I wrote lyrics over them. And they're used in the
Starting point is 00:59:52 movie, The Piano Lesson. It's going to be on Netflix. He's producing The Piano Lesson, right? Yes. Was he involved? He was around, but he stepped back and let his children work. What do you learn from your children now that they've grown?
Starting point is 01:00:09 So many things. Like I told you guys, there are definitely improvements on my design. Puma is at a place now at 20 that I was 30 before I was at her level of understanding and emotional intelligence and compassion for people integrity discipline yeah I was still a child kind of 20 I learned a lot from them and and they aren't very judgmental you know so they just kind of go along with whatever I do we never had rules it was just do what I say and they did that watched You know, I never hid anything from them. Yeah, they're having their turn
Starting point is 01:00:47 at showing me and teaching me patience and severity. Mama, you got to say what you feel and feel what you say. Tell that s***.
Starting point is 01:00:55 That's Mars. They telling you that? That's Jay Electronica, little girl. Mars. Yeah, they will. They'll tell me,
Starting point is 01:01:02 you can only be so kind now. And our favorite saying is a Kabbalistic saying. Severity without mercy is cruelty. Mercy without severity is weakness. So we try to walk that line. You know, kindness isn't only being, you know, appearing nice. Kindness is also telling somebody to beat it. Right.
Starting point is 01:01:28 Count it yourself. Now, I've seen the beehive chase you a little bit for a little bit. Where's the beehive now? Still on Twitter. Where? I ain't seen a beehive in a long time. And I love bees. They don't know I like it.
Starting point is 01:01:44 Love bees. I told them. We ain don't know I like it. I love feasts. I told them. We ain't seen them lately, though. Have y'all? Mm-mm. I ain't seen none of you ain't seen none. They gonna tell me up. Yep.
Starting point is 01:01:55 You gonna see them tomorrow. See them tomorrow. I like the tweet when you said, Jay, you gonna let this woman in these beads say something, Jay? You gonna let this woman in these beads say something jay you gonna let this woman in these bees do it after me i don't know why people think take things so serious it's just my sense of humor that's right i love jay well you saw the cover though knowing that there is the inspiration like does do those inspiration moments are you feeling like oh my god they saw what i was trying to do they love it they still doing it? Or do you feel like, oh, that was mine. Like, don't buy it.
Starting point is 01:02:27 I have to be very careful with this. Because my children are watching me. And that generation is watching. And as much as we love our art, it doesn't belong to us once it goes out in the world. However, though you can't manage what people are going to do with the art you can't manage whether they're going to duplicate it or do another interpretation of it or just enjoy it or use it as an inspiration you can't manage that but you don't have to remain
Starting point is 01:02:58 silent about it you can if it makes you feel a way you should say something about it my last question i feel like everything you do is spirit art, like I said earlier. Is it even possible for you to do any type of art without divine energy being involved? I don't think so. Even if I'm not aware of it, it's always involved. There's something. There's something. I don't know what it is, but there's something we float on that's given us life and choices of some sort.
Starting point is 01:03:25 Yeah. You know, we're born. We're told, you know, once we're born, you know, our religion was here already. What we're supposed to believe in, the tribe, the ways, the hunting ways, what we worship, how we worship, how we learn, how we cook, how we dress. There's a tribe, and you learn that. Hopefully, you go outside of that once you are of age to explore other things because you want to see if that is true. And then now you're an individual human who's creative in spirit.
Starting point is 01:04:02 And then you have to learn how to walk walk in that humanness in that spiritualness and also you can check out uh badu world market.com if you want to get uh all types of things like the phone we ordered we ordered the phone called sold out on there yeah i know i've been waiting even i didn't we we don't realize how big the fan base is. The reach is. Oh, this is the figure that you created, right? Yeah, this is the Funko Pop. And this is the Call Tyrone video. So then we... I actually reached out to Funko to do this.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Because I thought it was important for my kids to have these. They love Funkos. That's dope. And I surprised them one day and said, I have a Funko. That's dope. And I surprised them one day and said, I have a Funko. That's so dope. Like your own Funko?
Starting point is 01:04:49 You? Yeah. It's me, you. Yeah. With you? This is beautiful. Yeah. That's dope.

Starting point is 01:05:23 Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the message. Talk to me. So, last hour, we talked about Kalina Harper from Dirty Money.
Starting point is 01:05:33 And I did want to play this one last clip that I didn't get to do last hour because this, I felt like was pivotal. We talked about the 56 times that Diddy had called her or the over 50 times.
Starting point is 01:05:41 Mm-hmm. And she said she's ready to defend him to the end. So, let's take a listen. So basically, it's a denial post bill because he called me 56 times. So I feel really bad because I feel like he called me. I will get in court and stand up for if I need to, because it would be no different if it was you and me.
Starting point is 01:06:04 And she's talking to the people in the room and to the person that's interviewing her because of the relationship they have. She's saying like, this is bro. He didn't call me that many times, but I don't know even if she got on the stand and said that what that does, because I was saying this in the room. If I'm an attorney, how do you prove that in them 56 times he didn't make her say what she's saying right now? And how do you prove that she would have said it prior to the 56 calls so i don't even know if it like how that helps i got what is she defending she's trying basically because remember they made it seem like he was like interrogating witnesses and throwing his power around intimidating i'm sorry she's basically trying to say like no that wasn't even it he just called me because he my bro like y'all
Starting point is 01:06:43 trying to make him out to be this monster it's not giving that yeah part of the reason why they denied him on bail they said because he called her allegedly that many times and was intimidating so now she's saying that there was no intimidation that that's the bro allegedly yes 56 times is suspicious i'm going to tell you guys maybe 51 would have have been like, ah. 56 is a little crazy. I'm not a prosecutor here. I'm just saying. 56 times is suspicious. Say that one more time.
Starting point is 01:07:09 56 times is suspicious. I already said it. All right, y'all. Y'all want to play a game? It's Halloween. Guess what race? Oh, go ahead. No, not guess what race.

So, TMZ released a story that Lil Durk right now is planning to plead not guilty. So there's no actual word yet of when he'll actually be taken to California to face the charges.

Starting point is 01:16:00 And sadly, for months on this radio, I've been forecasting what we all know is going to happen on tuesday and what's going to happen is simply to bs okay look man america has never been perfect but i can honestly say in the 46 years i've been alive i can remember a time when we were better than this i remember there was a time when i thought racism and white supremacy would die out simply because i thought all the racists and white supremacists would die out but nope racism and white supremacy are learned behaviors. And sadly, they are behaviors that can be passed down. See, according to Neptune Beach Police Chief Michael Key Jr.,
Starting point is 01:16:32 Khalib and seven male juveniles went to a parking lot at a really busy early voting site in Duval County Tuesday afternoon with the intent to protest and antagonize the opposing political side. Guess what side he was on that's right he was waving Trump flags and they approached a group of people waving signs and support of Kamala Harris and Khaleeb escalated the situation to the point that that little 18 year old boy pulled out a machete and held it over his head to threaten two women ages 71 and 54 who called the police out of fear for their life. You think? I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to ABC News.
Starting point is 01:17:08 Oh, no, that's not it. Hold on. God damn it. Let me borrow that while you took it off. I need to get on top of my wig. No, you can't scratch your wig. Go to CBS News, Jacksonville for the report, please. We now have video that appears to show the 18-year-old accused of threatening people with a machete at a Neptune Beach polling place. We blurred every face other than Caleb Williams because the others are underage. Someone who claimed to be one of the
Starting point is 01:17:29 teens there sent us this video. They said Williams was using the machete to hold up a Trump flag and was not threatening anyone. Police say he raised the machete at two people, including a 65-year-old woman, and was there to antagonize others others as we get more details on this investigation we will bring them america cut it out okay everybody cut it out all right see if you have to do all that for your candidate to win then maybe just maybe your candidate isn't as strong as you think they are okay who you vote for should be about character and policy so if you are a person who has such bad character that you would pull out a machete on a bunch of old women to try to intimidate them from voting. What does that say about you and the person you are voting for?
Starting point is 01:18:10 OK, Khalif, do you understand you could have got shot and killed in Florida? They have a stand your ground law in Florida. Pulling a machete on someone is a complete threat. OK, one of them women are one of those older guys could have pulled out a pistol and sent you straight to the graveyard one of our great black philosophers glow really done told y'all she just drove by the cemetery and it's plenty room for hoes therefore i know it's plenty room for young dumb misguided potential future white supremacists listen seriously we don't need this now and we don't need this on election day okay whoever wins tuesday has to be a president for all americans and we should elect the president that our elected person that wants to be a president for all Americans. And we should elect the president that our elected person that wants to be a president for all Americans. OK, you shouldn't be willing to go to jail for any elected official.
Starting point is 01:18:50 And you damn sure shouldn't be willing to die for any elected official because they're not dying for you. OK, they're not going to jail for you. I don't care what Donald Trump tells you. He didn't go to jail for you. He went to jail because he was allegedly committing crimes. Some of the crimes he's already been convicted of. OK, the attempted coup in this country. He's been charged with what we saw with our own eyes. My point is, he's not going to jail for you. He went to jail because he did some things wrong. And you, Kaleeb, are a reflection of what's wrong with Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:19:17 And I feel bad that your young, impressionable 18 year old mind has been corrupted the way it has. OK, voting is not our only right it is our power okay we all need to use it wisely respectfully but most of all peacefully i saw something happen in the beautiful town of orangeburg south carolina dropping the clues bombs for orangeburg somebody sent me a video last night a guy came in wearing a let's go brandon hat and the sisters work in the poll not stripping i... Oh, because you confused me for a second. I know, I know. He didn't put the S, you know. You know it's hard for him. Sorry, I'm talking
Starting point is 01:19:49 voter polls. Okay, the sisters working the poll told him he couldn't vote with that hat on. Alright, my fellow Americans, I don't know if you know, but almost half of all U.S. states prohibit anyone from wearing campaign apparel or buttons within a certain distance of a polling location. This applies to people working for campaigns and organizations as well as voters heading in there to cast their ballots
Starting point is 01:20:08 this man uh came in there wearing the let's go brandon hat it led to a kerfuffle a little skirmish between this one man and a woman all because these women were doing their job and he got mad at them for doing their job i hate it okay i hate it i hate it i hate it because i know where this could lead in the south everyone got guns and i'm going to tell you right now you're going to look really dumb making a permanent decision based off a temporary situation when it comes to this voting thing imagine doing something at a voting location that causes you to go to prison longer than the president is going to be in office or causes you to die longer than the president gonna be in office because the president
Starting point is 01:20:42 only gonna be there for four years you're gonna be dead forever now i'm one of those people who feel like if trump wins he's not leaving until he dies but let's act like this is a normal election you get sentenced to over four years and the person only serves four years you really want to be in prison longer than the person you wilding out for is in office huh all this won't even matter four years from now listen all i want you all to remember on t Tuesday is voting is the cornerstone of democracy, a right that deserves respect, safety and peace. When we vote in peace, we honor our freedoms and protect the voices of our communities. All I'm trying to say in the words of Pusha T, when it comes to presidential candidates, dead people ain't dying for you. So don't get killed for that please give Kaleeb
Starting point is 01:21:26 James Williams the biggest hee haw and I misspoke 4 years from now who you vote for Tuesday will matter I just want to put that out there thank you for that talk now when we come back I need help because of these paws or whatever turtles call them I can't go on my phone Now when we come back I need help because of these Paws

You know you can't hit the masses.
Starting point is 01:23:26 I've never heard deterbed before. I've heard perturbed. Perturbed? All right, whatever. And y'all went to college. Both of y'all. We're moving on. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:36 Anyway, so she's a little bit upset because... So her boo, they recently made it official where, you know, it's just them. They're exclusive. And a girl DM'd him and was basically trying to get with him. Trying to holler. Holler. Like it was going down in a DM. For real, for real.
Starting point is 01:23:52 And he responded and was like, no, I'm cool. I got a girl. So he showed her the DM. Basically saying like, hey, you know, just want to let you know that this happened. And she's like, well, why did you respond? Like no response is a response. Responding, like if she can respond to you, she can get you. So why why did you respond? Like, no response is a response. Responding, like, if she can respond to you, she can get you.
Starting point is 01:24:06 So why would you even respond? So she brought it to the chat like, yo, am I wrong for telling him you shouldn't have responded? No, I think she's right. I respect what your homegirl said. Like, not only should you ignore the woman, you should block her. Immediately.
Starting point is 01:24:20 You shouldn't even have to tell her that you got a girl. Just block her. But it should have been, see, I don't think it should have been an issue said it was an issue because if he's if he you know turned it down and showed his girl he was showing his girl like look this is what's happening i'm blocking out i think it should just become be a conversation the only reason i have an issue with this is because with guys right like if somebody hit me up and i responded like no i'm good the first thing the guy's gonna say to me, if he can respond to you, he can get you. Oh, you know what?
Starting point is 01:24:46 Don't worry about what's going on with my DM. I didn't say that. Oh, I know you didn't say that. No, I said you don't have that luxury. Oh, I don't? I don't? Well, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051.

Starting point is 01:25:36 Now, if you're just joining us, Lauren is talking about her homegirl. Yes, my homegirl who is... She's upset in the chat. She's just trying to figure out was she wrong or was she right for getting upset. So, her boo has somebody dm him and the dm got all sorts of types of crazy like the girl was coming for him she was trying to take him down and he responded and was like nah i got a girl like i'm cool which caused her to respond more and try more because you opened up the line of communication right so my homegirl got upset and she you know she's asking us like y'all am i wrong for being upset because he's making it like i'm wrong for being upset i think she is wrong for being upset and i'm gonna tell you why if she
Starting point is 01:26:12 feels that way and obviously he wasn't trying to highlight it because he showed his girl just have a conversation like yo i think it was disrespectful just block the girl so we don't have to deal with it again there should be no upsetness we having a conversation we're grown right that's how a relationship should work, correct? But I feel like when you get in a relationship, it should be to a point where you don't have to show me stuff like that. Like, I trust that. But he's showing you stuff because he respects you.
Starting point is 01:26:36 No, I got to let you know that these hoes still on me. I got to let you know that I still got it, and you ain't the only one out here that want me. You hear me? If you my man. What accent was that? I don't know. I don't know. That was like he get, I don hear me? If you my man. What accent was that? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:26:46 That was like he get. I don't know. If you my man, I know you attractive. I know women are attracted to you and want to talk to you. That's why I'm attracted to you because you're attractive. You don't have to prove that to me. So why would you? There's no reason for you to show me that.
Starting point is 01:26:57 It's not proof. I still want you to know. You know what I'm saying? You should know. Any person in a relationship should know that if your person leaves you, they can go find somebody else. Like that's not. That's rocket science. No, I else. Like that's not that's that's rocket science. No, I just I don't think it's nothing wrong with receipts. Just letting people know. But I do think your girl is absolutely right.
Starting point is 01:27:12 I don't know how I don't know what level of upset she should be. Correct. But I will say that if you are in a relationship, whether you married, whether you in a committed, serious relationship if somebody dms you block them yes like you don't even there ain't no response like yo i'm married like the nine times out of ten they already know that they just being disrespectful and they trying your stupid ass well to see if there's any interest whatsoever don't even respy don't even reply you ever heard the statement i'm not even gonna dignify that with a response yes that's how it should be however i will say this is a new relationship.
Starting point is 01:27:45 It's a new situation. So maybe the girl doesn't know, but I still think you didn't have to respond. Hello, who's this? This is Joe Black from New Haven, right up the street. Joe Black from New Haven. You ain't got to yell,
Starting point is 01:27:56 but it says that this happened to you recently. Yes. Very similar situation. I had an event With my long time girl We've been together for like 11 years Now I call her my wife And you know Somebody hit the DM
Starting point is 01:28:12 And I shook her I was like look This is going on It's a very much similar situation And she had a problem with me But did you respond though? Did you block her? Did you respond?
Starting point is 01:28:23 Did you respond to the girl? What'd you do? I shut it down I shut it You responded to the girl? What'd you do? I shut it down. I shut it. You responded to the girl? As a result, I did. What made you feel like you had to respond? Is this somebody like y'all,
Starting point is 01:28:32 is it like a friend of your girlfriend's or like why did you have to respond? Nah, it was just somebody from back in the day. I don't even remember exactly how it went down, but it was a situation like that. And I listened to you and I had to just very like a couple months ago. I can't even understand.
Starting point is 01:28:49 Is this my mask or is this his phone? Yeah, it's his phone. Sorry about that. Hello, who's this? This is Johnny. Hey, Johnny. Talk to us.
Starting point is 01:28:57 What's your thoughts? So, I would be good with my husband responding to the message as long as he's saying something like he's saying something like he's happily married. And if he shows it to me,
Starting point is 01:29:10 then, you know, that shows that he's promoting the trust in our relationship. But I kind of see both sides because, I mean, you know, you want him to ignore
Starting point is 01:29:21 the female altogether. But in the event that he does respond, then i would like to know how he responded yeah i don't think there's any reason to respond because here's the thing when a person responds it's kind of like letting it's kind of like saying look i got a man or i got a woman okay you got a man but that's right it's like a butt almost it's like a butt but in case we do break up. I'm still here. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:29:46 Don't even respond. Don't show this person no interest whatsoever. Don't dignify them trying to holler at you with a response, period. I'm with you. I would show my girl and then I would block it. I would block it, but I would show my girl. I wouldn't respond. And the main reason I wouldn't respond is because people be playing with them DMs and
Starting point is 01:30:03 them texts and they could change things to look any which way nah exactly nope not responding i'm blocking you and what that woman said just now when she talked about the person who uh the guy was talking to was somebody he used to choose to deal with back in the day then be the main people it'd be a person and you 40 something years old now what's his name and they acting like it happened yesterday what's his name you know i'm saying but by the way? You know what I'm saying? But by the way, and you know what? He coming to you clean right now?
Starting point is 01:30:28 No, no, Lawrence. And I really want you to understand this, Lawrence, because I've had this talk with all my other nieces. When you are a person who starts to grow and people start to know you and know who you are, all the bodies coming back, baby. All the bodies. I don't care if it was a body that happened 15, 17 years ago. Oh, you... I hit
Starting point is 01:30:52 Lauren LaRosa. Mind you, you was 17, okay? But they gonna be out here bragging on it. I'm telling you. So be careful about that. Thanks, Uncle. That helmet is made... The helmet is working. I'm just letting you know. I'm just giving you a sneak. Can you tell me I'm serious with the helmet, though?
Starting point is 01:31:08 This is the way he holding his tea. He got his hand in there. Girl, let me tell you something, okay? There's one thing no man gonna do. 800-51051. If you're just joining us, tell us what happened with your friend. So my homegirl,
Starting point is 01:31:21 her and her new boyfriend, her boo got into it because a girl DM'd him. He responded back to say, like, nah, I'm cool. I got a girlfriend. And then he showed her the DM and she was upset about it. She was like, you shouldn't even have responded. So she wanted to know from us, like, yo, am I doing too much?
Starting point is 01:31:35 Like, am I okay for being upset? 800-585-1051. What's your thoughts? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Call, call, call, call. Tell her. Tell her.
Starting point is 01:31:44 Made it. Get for some chemistry. thoughts it's the breakfast club good morning call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club laura laRosa filling in for Jess. If you're just joining us. Jess, what happened with one of your friends? Lauren, what happened with one of your friends? Lauren, okay. So, one of my homegirls, her and her boo, got into it because new relationship.
Starting point is 01:32:16 And, you know, he got a DM from a girl. And the girl was trying to get crazy with him. She was trying to take him down. And he responded and was like, no, I got a girlfriend. got a girlfriend so she was like well why did you even respond like you you didn't even need to respond so she got upset and he's like yo why you tripping so she asked in the chat like y'all am i wrong for being upset about the fact that he even responded because why did you have to respond i'm gonna tell you something else too another reason people do that a guy or a girl be like nah i got a man and now I got a woman.
Starting point is 01:32:45 They want to see if the person gonna keep going. They want to see. I'm telling you, they want to see. But I doubt that because he told his girl what was going on. But see, the bad thing is, is how mad she got. Because if she overreacted and got too mad, he probably will never tell her anything again. Right. Because they have a relationship, which is a great relationship where he feels comfortable telling his bae, his girl, his homie, his friend, anything that's going on in the relationship.
Starting point is 01:33:07 Now, if she gets too mad, he's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. I wasn't trying to holler at her. She's not mad that he told. She's mad that he responded. And the thing is, too, is like after that, after he responded, like, no, I'm cool, the girl kept going. Like, because now you here. So now she's hitting me like, oh, you got a girlfriend. Oh, that's cute.
Starting point is 01:33:23 What's your little girlfriend do? Wow. you here that so now she didn't like oh you got a girlfriend oh that's cute what's your little girlfriend do so and all she got to be is like i don't care what's your little girlfriend got to do with me and my mouth people be wanting people in relationships that'd be a thing hello who's this hi this is shawnee hey shawnee good morning what you think shawnee i think it's very respectful and inclusive that he that he told her i feel like he's also setting the tone for what he wants for his relationship the fact that he told her is telling her like he's also setting the tone for what he wants for his relationship. The fact that he told her is telling her that, you know, we're going to share this information.
Starting point is 01:33:49 We're not going to keep anything private. And I personally feel like she should appreciate stuff, or any person should appreciate stuff like that. Their person, it comes to them and let them know everything's on the table. And that's probably what he wants to stop. So he's setting the tone for their relationship, and I think she should appreciate it and understand that i mean this world of social
Starting point is 01:34:09 media is just too much in your relationship how do you want them to be handled do you want things to be hidden he didn't have to tell her do you want to be hidden do you and he also responds to the woman very respectfully so i i personally would appreciate see that's what i was saying he told his girl because he probably don't care he was like like, I'm telling her because that's my friend. And if she, I don't know how she reacted, but if she overreacted, he's going to be like, I ain't telling you nothing again. I'm telling you, a lot of times people do that for ego. They reply to the person and say, I got a man or I got a woman because they want to
Starting point is 01:34:38 see how bad this person really wants to get with them. So if the person keeps going, it's an ego boost. Hello, who's this? What up? This is Ron from Houston this Ron from Houston talk to us what you wish it off wrong because oh but it was transparent he shut he shut it down and he could really and another thing I say that is because just cuz you don't ask somebody people be persistent these days but cuz you don't answer somebody, people be persistent these days. But because you don't answer somebody, it doesn't mean that they're not going to keep missing you. I've been on both sides of that boat.
Starting point is 01:35:12 You get what I'm saying? So I feel like old buddy was right because he could have just lied about it or he could have responded and hid it. But he was transparent. All right. Thank you, Jeff. He's a transparent. He said he's a transparent.
Starting point is 01:35:28 Hello, who's this? People just throwing labels on people now trying to be correct. Hello? A transparent, translucent. What's your thoughts, mama? So I feel, the way I feel, well, sorry, good morning. Good morning. The way I feel, I wouldn't want him to even open the message or DM to even pass emails to know that he's acknowledging them, really.

Starting point is 01:38:37 Talk to me. All righty, y'all. So, Drea Michelle is denying and fighting back against being the Laura Govan saying that she dragged Drea by her vagina and her collarbone Jesus excuse me so listen I'm gonna break it down for y'all how do you do that I don't know listen so Laura Govan was uh sitting down with Carlos King you guys know he has this show that he does where he does the one-on-one exclusive interviews shout out to Carlos King yes um so in this interview laura started talking about when she found out that drea was involved with gilbert arenas let's take a listen
Starting point is 01:39:10 drea was brought on basketball wives as a friend if i'm not mistaken to myself so y'all this is quest love and i'm here to tell you about a new podcast i've been working on with the story pirates and john glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it.
Starting point is 01:39:39 Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand-new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. Did you know, did you know, I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Goldman. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.
Starting point is 01:40:32 Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Sister, and guess what? I liked her. radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Sister. And guess what? I liked her because I was like, oh, I like this chick. Like she's how cool. She's funny. I had no idea that she was there being Gilbert's jump off.
Starting point is 01:40:55 So then when I found out, it was when I was going through some papers at the house and I saw that he had given her $25, brought her to la and i remember going to where she was filming here in hollywood down the street i remember showing up and i was not supposed to be filming and i walked past everybody and i beat her and it did not air i picked her by her her collarbone and threw her and then i spit on her jesus yeah this is why you gotta love black people now she know damn well she didn't pick that girl up by her poom po Yeah. This is why you got to love black people. Now, she know damn well she didn't pick that girl up by her poom poom. But that's how you tell the story. But black people, we put so much sauce on everything.
Starting point is 01:41:32 That's an amazing story, though. Picking a woman up by the poom poom and slamming her is a fatality move. You would see in Mortal Kombat if Trump was a hidden character. What are you talking about? And then spit after. Jesus. So for context, there had been this rumor for some time that Drea was involved
Starting point is 01:41:46 with Gilbert Arenas and there was like one time Gilbert and Nick Young had actually went on Instagram live and they were having a conversation about
Starting point is 01:41:54 something that happened in the back of a car now mind you Laura Govan says in this interview that Gilbert came out and told her like yeah I was involved
Starting point is 01:42:02 with a girl from Philly there was things that happened and like a car like he kind of he kind of tells her about it but doesn't say who it is from what she tells us and that's what she's saying has made her so upset cuz like she feels like dreading you got on the show and became my friend knowing you was doing whatever way you know I mean my situation let's take a listen to Nick young and Gilbert arenas that day when I was right home with Philly in the car yeah i don't know if you want me to
Starting point is 01:42:27 tell that story no no she's a mother now you can't do that that day changed my life that's when swaggy p was like okay man i gotta this is what nba is about i'm riding in a car he in the back seat i turned my head against uh-huh Huh? What was you doing in that back seat, Gil? What was you doing in that back seat? He said, huh? My grandma said, huh, you can hear. Why'd they figure that was Dre and him? Well, okay, so
Starting point is 01:42:55 Laura said that she was told that it was Dre. And that's when she was told it was Dre. She got upset. She went to the studio and she alleges that she grabbed her by the vagina, dragged her by the vagina in the collarbone. Why are all these grown people talking about this again now? Because Laura did the sit-down with Carlos King, and he brought up the time of just the rumors of them dealing with each other in the fight. And she rehashed it and just confirmed certain things.
Starting point is 01:43:20 Now, Drea. So the fight was on camera, so it was while they were taping Housewives. Now, listen. So Laura is saying the fight was on camera, but never aired now listen to Drea Drea spoke out about this she said I didn't mess with anyone's husband let's be clear that no one was married let's also be clear that the interactions I had with him were years before I was on the show I didn't know her then I also did not know her when I agreed to be on the show or her sister I didn't even know either of them were going to be on the show so to say the word friend is a huge
Starting point is 01:43:43 stretch she's saying that she came on as a friend of the sister didn't know either one of them were going to be on the show. So to say the word friend is a huge stretch. She's saying that she came on as a friend of the sister. Didn't know either one of them for real. But even if they had told her like, oh, this is Laura. She still wouldn't have known who she was. Dre continues to say, to be honest, during my time on the show, it was the highest ratings that it had ever received. Many of y'all won't admit it. But I brought comedic relief and a breath of fresh air. And most importantly, relatability to the normal girl who watched the show they're talking about basketball wise for
Starting point is 01:44:08 anyone who doesn't know I'm almost to the end but I will say my storyline carried the show and she said carried carried carried three times had there had been something involving me trust and believe it would have been put on air for further enjoyment of the people that watch trash tv again I don't get on this internet and bash anybody I certainly don't blame any woman in any situation where i am owed some sort of respect from any man but i don't get on this internet and tell my side of the story often because i respect the fact that it's not only my side i give a lot of people grace by being quiet and not sharing so basically what dre is saying i didn't even know homegirl at the time i was dealing with him i didn't know who she was when i came onto the show so i wouldn't be able to even connect the two we weren't real friends i was paid to come on
Starting point is 01:44:48 this show and act like a friend and i'm on my business so why y'all coming for me and you saying that all this was filmed drea says i was carrying the ratings why they didn't air it it would have made great tv why didn't they air it so demand to see it you want to see it right now oh my god drea is better than me and i I'm going to tell you why. Because if you was dragged by your vagina, what would happen? No, no, no. Her baby daddy, her baby daddy, her boyfriend just signed a deal for three years for $105 million. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:45:16 You think I would respond to y'all? And I will say this, Dre. Yes, I do envy. I absolutely know you would respond. You're right. I would. He would have been like dragged by. It would have been a one-on-one camera right here in the room. Dragged by. I was. He would have been like dragged by, it would have been a one-on-one camera
Starting point is 01:45:26 right here in the room, dragged by a vagina. Exactly. What do you mean? But I will say this, Drea has done a really good job of being quiet. Even when they be getting
Starting point is 01:45:33 on her about- $105 million! You talking about her new baby's father. We don't even know- They go together. We don't even know that confirmed. She hasn't even confirmed that.
Starting point is 01:45:42 We still, we be seeing stuff. We be seeing like whatever, but they don't say say anything she's done a really good job of learning what would beyonce do since her wholeness has been deleted and y'all remember drea said and when she said that she changed everything she stepped away she's been doing a good job but i think she addressed this because it's the whole i was married and you pretended to be my friend that's not a good look we're dropping the clues bombs with gilbert arenas okay he was out here tricking you hear me it ain't tricking if she's worth it was out here tricking, you hear me?
Starting point is 01:46:06 It ain't tricking if she's worth it. It ain't tricking if you got it. 25 grand ain't nothing. Gilbert Arenas made a lot of money. 25K on an easy little cash app here, babe. Take this. I told you the one time I was in the club with Gilbert Arena and he bought so many bottles. He must have bought about 500 bottles.
Starting point is 01:46:20 What you do, girl? I ain't talking about the bottles. He was like, oh my God, the ballers. The ballers and baller alert. Baller alert. There were so many bottles. He did give me a couple bottles last DJ. Forget y'all.
