We got JoJo and the big homie from the JoJo and Big Homie Show. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:03:06 What's up? We in the NY. Yeah, by way of Chicago and Atlanta. That's right. They host the night show in Atlanta on 105.3 to beat Monday through Thursday, 7 p.m. to midnight. So those are our homies from our ATL station. But Shoski. Did y'all see Trump when y'all was out there?
Starting point is 00:03:21 Nah, he had something going on crazy at the airport because the alarms was going off. Yeah, for sure. It's called Secret Service. We didn't see him, but we saw the traffic that he brought to the airport. Quavo said he was at Magic City. I don't know if he was at Magic City or not. Quavo said he seen him at Magic City.
Starting point is 00:03:36 He probably stopped the guy who's the wing. Nah, the jail is right around the corner from Magic City. Oh, really? Yeah, so that's a possibility. He could have got some wings. Nah, he was rolling deep, though. I mean, but he's the president. God damn, it's called Secret Service, presidential details. He is not was rolling deep, though. I mean, but he's the president. God damn. It's called Secret Service, Presidential Details.
Starting point is 00:03:46 He is not the president. He is. I mean, he's not the president. But he's still a president. So do the Secret Service do a sweep in the jail? Like, do they go to the jail, make sure the jail's clear before the president comes down and they leave? That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:03:58 That's crazy. I'm sure they already had proper provisions in place. I'm trying to figure out how he was only there for 20 minutes. Because he's the president. He's white. The president. Express. First one to second out how he was only there for 20 minutes. Because he's the president. He's white. The president. First one to take. Fannie was just being petty.
Starting point is 00:04:09 She was just being petty. Come here and take this picture. Yeah, the crazy thing is he was able to put his own weight and his own height in the thing. And we know that's a damn lie. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:17 There's no way in hell Donald Trump weighed no 215 pounds. If you 6'3", 215, you slim. Okay? Hips don't lie. Trump touching 300 easy. Backs don't either. Absolutely back don't eat absolutely well on

Starting point is 00:05:41 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I thought he was saying, might be a man. Might be a man. I was like, where is this record going? Didn't it sound like that in the beginning? Play it from the beginning, Red.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Just play the beginning back real quick, can you? It's freaking, freaking, freaking Friday. I didn't know. I was like, where is this going? I know, I know. I thought you said, might be a man. I just wanted to know where the record was going. Morning, everybody. We are DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:06:07 We are The Breakfast Club. We got some guest hosts, JoJo and the Big Homie Show from the ATL. You can catch them Monday through Thursday, 7 p.m. to midnight on 105.3 The Beat. But let's get in some front page news. Tenslin Figaro. Good morning, DJ Envy. Good morning, Charlamagne. You needed to know where the record identified I guess
Starting point is 00:06:26 That's it What did this record identify? Good morning big homie Good morning family Good morning We just need to know where it identified Good morning Jojo how are you? Good morning how are you?
Starting point is 00:06:39 Let's jump right into it Donald Trump he's 6 foot 6 with only 215 pounds Yeah they said the real crime was reporting 215 pounds. Somebody on Twitter said, when does the lie stop? But yesterday, former President Donald Trump was booked at the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, as we know, on felony charges related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. I was on the plane at the time, DJ Envy. I mean, I was just refreshing like everybody else every two minutes uh on on twitter it was hashtag you know mugshot watch and so folks were
Starting point is 00:07:10 waiting on that and they finally did release that mugshot now this is trump's first a fourth indictment this year but it's the first time he had his mugshot taken you know we talked about this many many times wondering uh if big fanny was gonna do it and it looks like she absolutely did it now they said they are taking mugshots of all 19 people charged in the case. We're going to talk a little bit more about those folks in the second hour, but that included Rudy Giuliani, who we saw on yesterday, Sidney Powell, and former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. Now, Trump was released, obviously, not long after he was jailed on a $200,000 bond.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Here is what he had to say. I really believe this is a very sad day for America. This should never happen. If you challenge an election, you should be able to challenge an election. I thought the election was a rigged election, a stolen election, and I should have every right to do that. You know, the interesting thing about all of this, you know how slim and fit Trump would be if he was 6'3", 215 pounds.
Starting point is 00:08:06 And I know people are making jokes, but the reason mug shots are important because if somebody goes on the run, they need a description. Correct. So if you say 6'3", 215, strawberry blonde hair, none of that describes, you know, Donald Trump. Trump is probably 6'3", and he weighs about Chris Christie. Yes. Yeah, absolutely. But see, the most impressive thing, i don't know if you caught it you know tesla figaro fly spirit and she said she was you know checking every two minutes so i
Starting point is 00:08:30 didn't even know spirit had wi-fi did you know first of all i fly southwest well i didn't know southwest had wi-fi did you i didn't yes they do i didn't think she meant she was in the air i thought they were still taxing me we do have wi, actually, and it is free. Shout out to Southwest Airlines. That's what was impressive to me. That's what I caught. Very impressive. Charlamagne, you mentioned yesterday they're going to be selling shirts, and you called that.
Starting point is 00:08:55 They absolutely do have the shirts up for $34 on the Trump website, $25 coffee mug, $15 beer koozies. The tagline says, never surrender, but technically he did surrender. You know, going into the take a mug shot is totally surrender. It's not like it's like Cleo on set it off. That's what not surrendering is.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I was going to ask, what's protocol? Because usually they have to weigh you and do your hype. Why was he just allowed to write it down and keep it moving? Do we know? Is it white privilege? I don't know. White privilege. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Maybe we'll have to look into that he's selling them shirts for cheap though i saw something last night that said they was giving the shirts away for free to claim your free this is claim your free shirt uh for a limited time only oh no okay if you make a contribution of 47 yeah donations are more to help defend our movement from the never-ending witch hunts we'll send you your very own never surrender t-shirt for free boy these people slick it's not free no right donation donation donation donation i thought i thought they'd have been doing it for 100 47 why didn't this do 45 oh that'd be dope would he be the 47 president yeah if he wins again yeah he'd be 47 wait yeah because joe biden 46 he'd be 47 he win he be 47 That's right You know what
Starting point is 00:10:05 They smarter than us That's it Well I wouldn't say that But yeah They some slick people Y'all can say all you want Stop acting like These people ain't good
Starting point is 00:10:11 On social media And they not good at marketing They are That's a good marketing strategy You think so Yeah Yes very much so I feel like people
Starting point is 00:10:18 I feel like A couple black people Might even get a shirt Oh they doing that anyway Of course They love his team Way too much You ain't see the niggas For Trump Literally They call blacks for Trump A couple black people might even get a shirt. Oh, they're doing that anyway. Of course. Their love for Tim is way too much. Yeah, I was.
Starting point is 00:10:25 You ain't see the niggas for Trump? Literally? They're called blacks for Trump. No, they were called niggas for Trump. Really? They were on a shirt. Yeah, it was on a shirt. It was on a shirt.
Starting point is 00:10:34 But I don't think all the people was black. Some of them looked like they was like, doing makeup. Really? Yeah, they looked disguised. Yes, I'm telling you. I was seeing the picture and I was like, yo, this does not look like a real black person.
Starting point is 00:10:47 All right, well that is front page news. Tezlin news Teslin Figaro we'll see you in a couple of minutes everybody else get it off your chest 800-585-1051 if you need to vent phone lines are wide open again 800-585-1051 call us up right now it's a Friday it's The Breakfast Club good morning The Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:11:06 This is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning, Breakfast Club. This is D.U. What's up, U? Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Hey, how you doing, Envy? I'm good, brother. Huh? I'm good, brother. How you feeling? Hey, what's up, Chalamet? Good morning, the guest host, Big Homie Jojo. I'm just calling to talk about the statement Trump made as far as
Starting point is 00:11:30 contesting an election. Yes, you do have a right to contest an election, but the way you went about it is all the way criminal. Stop trying to confuse the people about, you know, you have a right to contest an election. You sent your whole clan, your clan to the Capitol.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Like, stop it, man. That's all, man. Yeah, the crazy thing is he's not confusing his people because his people, you know, refuse to believe the truth anyway. So his people already believe. Yeah. His people already believe the narrative he already put out there, so. Absolutely, man. Well, y'all have a blessed weekend, man. Good day.

Starting point is 00:12:23 How you guys doing on this beautiful Friday? What's up, brother? Get it off your chest. A lot of people are overthinking this Trump thing and saying that, well, it's not right to arrest and charge and potentially jail an ex-president. But the other thing beside it is, if you let him go, you set a precedent that if you're an ex-president or a six present you committed crime You can totally resolve for me
Starting point is 00:12:49 You'll never receive jail time and then in essence we become like a fight them like we have a king Okay, you can do whatever you want and no matter what it is probably except for murder And that the king won't have to do any jail time. So that's one of the other important aspects of this. Also, Tanya Willis, we got to make sure we put a net around her spiritually, hell, maybe even physically, just to make sure that nothing happens to our sister. If she should trip and fall and break her neck, we need to be out there, not necessarily raising Cain, but just making sure that everything, there's no chicanery going on.
Starting point is 00:13:26 That's an old school word. But I fear and I respect, well not fear, but it's just the safety in a sense because there are some crazies out
Starting point is 00:13:34 there. Right. You're absolutely right, but man, there's a lot of people out there that love Young Thug and YSL and
Starting point is 00:13:39 they like, if she don't pardon them, you know what I mean, they don't really care about what she's doing with Old Thug and OCL.

Oh, I'm so like, I ain't know what happened. Taylor Beasley got quiet. I'm the only person who believes in Taylor. I really hope she understands. Okay, it's a sad day. It's a sad day.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Okay. Because Halle Berry is to pay $8,000 a month in child support. Yes. Now, Halle Berry finally settled her divorce
Starting point is 00:25:42 in custody battle with her ex-husband. I think it's Oliver. Oliver Martinez. The two will share joint legal custody of their nine-year-old son. Yeah. And the ruling states that Halle Berry agreed to pay $8,000 a month. And she will also pay him 4.3% of any income she receives above $2 million.
Starting point is 00:26:01 All right. Now, that covers their son's school tuition, uniform, school supplies, and extracurricular activities. She will also pay back Martinez for any money spent on the 2023- 2024 school year. Jesus Christ. Why you making your face like that? That man is a pioneer. He needs his own
Starting point is 00:26:18 day. He's a trailblazer. I mean, if the tables were turned, he would have to pay that, right? So since she makes a I mean, if the tables were turned, he would have to pay that, right? So since she makes a lot more and the baby is their baby, shouldn't they be
Starting point is 00:26:30 splitting it 50-50 like they probably are? Yeah. She's giving him 4.3% of any income she receives, though. That's kind of like... No.
Starting point is 00:26:39 So where's the kid staying at? Is it joint custody? You said joint custody. That's what I was thinking, too. I was like, who's got primary custody? Because it sounds like the guy got primary custody based off the numbers of JoJo just right. But if you have joint custody, where is the baby staying?
Starting point is 00:26:53 It's going to be with the dad. It's going to be with the dad. Dad needs a nice house. Dad needs a million-dollar house, too. Yeah, because usually how the father lives, they say the mom should be living the same way. Absolutely. So the kid, when they go from house to house, house is not like you go from you know beverly hills to the projects yeah it's just interesting that when a man is on the winning side of one of these cases yeah you know all of a sudden people want to
Starting point is 00:27:12 have discussions about what's not fair when it's a woman that has to i mean a guy that has to give up twenty thousand dollars a month everybody's like yeah get your money queen i'm so glad that i am the only female in here right now so I can speak on this. Because I just... You don't know what we identify as. Yeah, you don't know what I identify as. How dare you? You're absolutely right.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Because I don't know what y'all got going on. But the guy, he's an actor. He makes money. He ain't booked, man. He not booked man he not booked he not booked and busy so she need to he not Halle Berry
Starting point is 00:27:47 she need to build up them pockets he's not Halle Berry I get that I mean if he has to get his coins support your man I am always support that bus driver I'm always toying on this though
Starting point is 00:27:57 because why I feel like a man's job is to protect and provide so I be like you know don't dig in her pockets like that but then on the other side
Starting point is 00:28:03 I'm like yo fair is fair it's for the kid. It's not for him. It's for the child. So just because he's not the breadwinner, he's not the protector and provider. He's still providing what he can. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:11 He's protecting what he can. And he's leading that household as the household needs to be led. He can lead her money too. He providing what he getting out of that $8,000 a month. Exactly. Well,
Starting point is 00:28:19 do you, do you think that this is, um, so you guys think that this is fair? Yes. It's the law. This is the fair thing. It's the law. This is a fair thing? It's the law.
Starting point is 00:28:26 It's not about what's fair, Jules. You gotta abide by the law. Okay, it's the law. Okay, I get that. Well, Safari, he didn't like it. He thinks it's a little sassy. He put out a tweet. He said, a man getting child support is crazy.
Starting point is 00:28:38 He might as well put on a dress. Who care what Safari think? That's true. Because Safari got his own... When did he become the social jockey? Safari got... I'm just saying, like... a safari thing he got his own situation he got going on over there he really ain't had no no uh right he does have his own situation lyrical and biblical sitting up on my pedestal no matter how you see it i'm the pinnacle it's pitiful you were imbecile if you try to make it physical you end up critical think it's subliminal you're not no criminal stereotypical safari alone yeah big homie right what do you care

Starting point is 00:31:41 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got our guest co-hosts, JoJo and Big Homie, of course, from ATL. Sportsbook for details. All right, Tess, welcome back. More Trump and Trump business. Come on, break it down. More Trump and Trump business. Rico, shout out to everybody in Atlanta and our guest host here from Atlanta. Did a big yesterday would actually be in the first time we had a president take a mugshot. Now, we talked a little bit about it in the first hour, but I want to kind of talk about his other defendants as well in that RICO charge. Now, most of them have already turned themselves in, but they still have the deadline
Starting point is 00:32:30 for those who have not. At least 11 of the 19 have turned themselves in, and today, by noon, everybody has to be turned in and has to turn themselves in and book, so we should see some more mugshots coming on out today as well. Now, there was also a lot of talk on social media about the black guy for Black Voices for Trump, Willie Lewis Floyd.
Starting point is 00:32:52 He is the only one still in jail. And the reason for that is he is the only one that did not have a prearranged bond. And what that means is he will remain. This is as of yesterday evening. Something could have changed between then and now, but he will remain in the Fulton County Jail until he can appear before a judge who will be able to
Starting point is 00:33:12 grant him a bond, to arrange his bond. But folks are saying that hey, out of everybody who's still in jail is still the black guy. What do you guys think about that? Nobody told Willie how this works? Nobody said, Willie, you need an attorney, have your attorney call the district like nobody nobody hit willie or did willie not have the funds to pay for an attorney either or it did willie didn't have it
Starting point is 00:33:32 damn well he didn't unlock that level of privilege yet he ain't upgraded to that level no what did willie have going on he had he was arrested three months ago in maryland on a federal warrant because it accused him of aggressively confronting uh two fbi agents with a grand jury subpoena oh he's a menace like that thug up yep i'll tell you what else too man everyone who didn't um uh take trump's mugshot previously shame on you shame on you because clearly I thought that you couldn't do that to a former president. I thought so too. But clearly you could. The way they were avoiding it, yeah, I thought they couldn't.
Starting point is 00:34:11 So shame on all those people. Who, Alvin Bragg? Who else was it, Taz? Who were the previous indictments? Let me just run those indictments back just for clarity. So we had January 6th case. We had the Georgia election interference case. We had the classified document case.
Starting point is 00:34:22 And then the hush money case. All of those people granted Donald Trump a level of privilege that he didn't even have y'all did that y'all chose not to treat that man like you treat every every other american citizen salute to fannie may willis for treating trump and his cronies like uh any other person who gets arrested i don't think her name is fannie may but we know fannie may don't play you got to put a man fannie may don't play okay in the atl for sure i'm just trying to figure out what was the big deal of not getting your mugshot taken. That's my point. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Why is it so? Why he was like, I don't want my mugshot. What was the point? Well, I guess it was them not making him do it. Fannie Mae Willis made him and all his cronies do it. Everybody else didn't. And I think that's disgusting. Yeah, let me say who that everybody else is uh jack
Starting point is 00:35:05 smith was the special counsel for the because you'd ask who did it uh for the january 6th case so it was jack smith uh the georgia election interference case obviously we know that's uh fannie willis and then the classified document case jack smith again uh and then the hush money case that was the alvin bragg correct. So Alvin Bragg and Jack Smith you know granted Donald Trump a level of privilege that he didn't even have. He should have had mug shots for all of those cases. Luther Fanny May Willis.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Alright well that is front page news. Thank you Teslin. Absolutely. And make sure you subscribe to Teslin Figaro's podcast it's Great Shot No Chaser podcast on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network and follow Teslin Figaro on all social media platforms at tesla figaro all right now when we come back from tde i think reason will be joining us he's still tde right uh yes as far as i know maybe he won't be after this interview but he's still td damn it man all right no reason td i'm just playing

Starting point is 00:36:16 Of course, we got our niece Nyla in here with us. And we got a special guest in the building, the brother Reason. Welcome. What's the deal? You got a new project out called Porches. Yes. Yes. Can we call this an album? It is. It's an album. Okay. I's the deal? You got a new project out called Portrait. Yes, yes, yes. Can we call this an album? It is.
Starting point is 00:36:27 It's an album. Okay. I don't like when artists do that. I hate it. Yeah, it's an album. It's fine. Artists, I'm not going to name his name, but he just dropped. He dropped maybe last year, and he was like, oh, this is my second album.
Starting point is 00:36:37 I'm like, you got eight projects out. They're all albums to me. Who, MBM, boy? I'm not going to say. You don't want to say no other artists' names. I mean, you don't got to say names because every artist does that. You can call everybody
Starting point is 00:36:48 from TDE out. Why can't you say other artists' names? Wow, wow, wow. You're going to start right there? You call up your own label. Welcome to the Breakfast Club, ladies.
Starting point is 00:36:56 What's up? What's up? No, but Porches. Porches is out. And I like that album because I love a good porch. You know what I'm saying? I'm from the South.
Starting point is 00:37:02 So I love a good porch. I got a porch now. So I understand what you mean when you talk about that porch. Yeah, it's just a product of your environment. It's really just like a metaphor for your environment. We're all, you know, we're coming from our environment. If me and you grow up in similar class, similar place, similar income, we're going to go through similar shit. And that's kind of like what the album's storyline is about, is realizing the porch that you're on want realizing that you are a product of your environment and yes you can grow on going to do bigger things but
Starting point is 00:37:28 we need to understand and love each other a little bit better knowing that uh we all come from the same place especially in today's time because we all just kind of point the finger at people when something crazy happens not understanding exactly like the things that they've gone through and whatnot because i was a stoop we call it the stupid yeah i'm about to say we ain't got poetry we got stoops yeah and the outro, it actually says that. Because I got the homie, shout out Scrap. He's kind of narrating the album in an older man voice. And he said that he like New York call it a stoop.
Starting point is 00:37:52 He was like, rich white people, I don't know what they call it. But they call it something. You know what I mean? So yeah, same thing. I love these kind of albums, man. Because I love a project that I'm listening to. And then I got to look down at the track list to know what this song is. Because it's so cohesive
Starting point is 00:38:05 yeah you know is that purposely done of course it is it definitely is um i came i started making this album um the idea behind it um on my last album new beginning so the last album ended with um a plethora of dates being said um and then this album picks up with those dates being said and now you're hearing the stories behind those dates so these are real stories that happen they were real dates like some of these things you can google because they actually happen so it was definitely one of those things i wanted to always wanted to make a full-blown cohesive album that people could listen to from front to back i was always one of my things on the bucket list but i will say it was way more work than i thought it was gonna be like
Starting point is 00:38:40 halfway through i was like i don't know if i want to do this no more making out making like it's a connect all the way through like it's a connect all the way through like there's a lot more especially in today's time yeah where everybody just kind of like has the playlist albums
Starting point is 00:38:51 lost art I mean people don't do it no more like with the skits and everything you know very lost art yeah and so it takes a lot of
Starting point is 00:38:58 if you want to do it right it takes a lot of coordination it takes a lot of time and making sure that you don't miss any gaps or details or you know making sure the aesthetic of it. Like we brought in the Foley guy to do the all the sound effects and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:39:10 And it just takes a lot more work than I, you know, thought I was kind of getting myself into. Well, if you had guidance from other TDE people, because if you wasn't alienating everybody. Is this where you want to go? Is that what it is? Talk to people that have done this before. Okay, this is the camp that does it a lot. Kendrick does it a lot, even though he's not there. So people would ask, what's your relationship with TDA?
Starting point is 00:39:31 Is there a problem? Is Charlamagne saying you don't accept the guidance? What's the situation like? Don't accept the guidance is crazy. I'm always willing to accept guidance. But no, it's that entire situation. That was a conversation that me and Moo have had behind closed doors a a lot it was just one of those things that it probably shouldn't have been well not probably it definitely just shouldn't have been out in the public you know
Starting point is 00:39:50 what i mean but it's a lot of misconceptions about that like because it happened there's a misconception that musa didn't think this album was quality musa loves this album like he helped me pick some of the records you get i'm saying and so um it was just one of those things that got so nasty and so ugly publicly that now everything is a thing. Like everything is a headline. The release party became a headline. That's your fault, though. That was my fault.
Starting point is 00:40:13 That was my fault. I'll take accountability. You came to my release party. Yeah, I was asked, was this a weird week that you had to be around people? I'm like, I didn't really have to be around nobody because I had a release party. They didn't come. But I didn't. Well, I did explain, but that's not in the clip.
Starting point is 00:40:28 We had a listening party the week before that the label put together and then my release party i put it together like for the homies and family and because everything was happening they just gave me space on it so it was one of those things where i was like i shouldn't have said that you get i'm saying the cole kendrick thing was wild too there was no that wasn't wild there was no reason for that reason for people that don't know what he said. For people that don't know what he said. He said that when Cole drops his next project, he's going to surpass Kendrick. I didn't say that. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:40:53 No, I said when Cole drops his next project, he will be bigger. Not bigger than Kendrick. He'll be a lot bigger. I said he's doing a lot more current things. I think he'll see the fruits of his labor. I said I think Dot is bigger right now, but I think Cole's going to grow a lot. I don't know who's going to be bigger, and I really don't care.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Like, both of these niggas are like gods to me. Like, I don't really get into the argument of who's the biggest out of Drake, Cole, and Dot. How big can he get? Pause. I mean, it's supposed to be his last album. I think that he's going to go out with a bang. If it is his last album, we know how that shit is going to go. It won't be. But I don't know. If there's anybody I think got to stand on their word, I think it he's gonna go out like with a bang if it is this last album we know how that shit go but I don't know if there's anybody
Starting point is 00:41:27 I think that'll stand on their word I think it's Cole where did the Bigger Than Kendrick thing come from because what headlines
Starting point is 00:41:32 that's crazy you know what all I saw was the headlines yeah you talk about everybody only being the headlines and you only being the headlines you know why though
Starting point is 00:41:39 because Reason been out here saying about T-Biz shooting the TV so much I was like damn Reason again I ain't even been shooting at so much i was like damn reason again i ain't even been shooting at them like that man like i i just i said my truth my truth for me was
Starting point is 00:41:50 that i wanted to be more consistent i wanted to put out more music that was what i was again that's your fault consistency is on you that's what i'm saying is i don't that's that's not my truth and i don't want to you know because when i go into detail it's like it looks like i'm like smearing the label i don't want to do that but that's not my truth i don't think it's my fault they don't want you to drop mixtapes or nothing? It's TDE. It's just the way that they do things. It's not as simple as just make a project, put it together, turn it in, and it's out.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Trust me. I make a lot of music. I just backed up my hard drive. I had 1,300 records. I'm not an artist that don't work. That's not a thing. They don't even want you to drop your own music. Let's say, hey, I just want to release this mixtape or whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:42:28 They're telling you they don't even want you to do that. It's just same destination, different roads. That's where we run into our issues. We all have the same destination that we want to get to. We just see different paths of getting there. That can cause frustration. I see a path that we can do this and do it this way. Sometimes they see it that way
Starting point is 00:42:45 and it ultimately, you know what I mean, can kind of clash at times. What if you drop music under like another name, like Explanation? This guy's stupid. So silly.
Starting point is 00:42:55 What's wrong with him, man? But you do feel like y'all have the common goal of winning, though. I think, yeah, that's what I mean when I said there was a lot of misconceptions.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Like, it was like, because that got so nasty publicly, it was almost like the conception was that like i feel like they don't want me to be successful and that they feel like i'm not a good artist which that's not it but that was just bad because it was public we've had way worse than that you get i'm saying and i think if i would have responded on the spot and went back at him i think it would have been like one of the conversations we've had behind closed doors and that was part of the reason why i just shut up even though it was hard because i didn't want it to get any worse than it already was i feel like it overshadowed the album slightly because slightly yeah yeah everybody's talking about reasons issues with
Starting point is 00:43:38 tde as opposed to the music yeah yeah and that's it's it's weird it's like a double-edged sword like it gave more eyes to the album like if didn't nobody know i was dropping the album that friday they knew after that but it also like you said it it created a different conversation instead of having a conversation about the music but the people that have listened to it like my feedback has been incredible like it's especially from all of my fans that's been waiting for me they're like this is by far your best work well worth the wait you know that just goes into like all the work that i put in but that was an annoying thing it's like now this is what we're talking about instead of you know the visuals instead of the storyline instead of us you know announcing the tour we're kind of waiting you know for it to die down a little bit like i would have rather just kind
Starting point is 00:44:19 of like go straight through with the music all right when we come back we got more with reason it's the breakfast club good Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club on this Friday, reminding you of my car show. My two-day car show
Starting point is 00:44:31 is this weekend at the Meadowlands Expo Center in Jersey, like 15 minutes from Manhattan. It's a family fun day. Cars, rides, and everything. We're still kicking it with Reason.
Starting point is 00:44:40 He's here from TDE. His album is out right now. But what made you sign with tde because you know a lot of artists sign a tde because they say they got artists i can work with i can collaborate with they have producers that i can work with they have a stream for me to get heard and out what was your reason of signing with td and what did you expect yeah um a little a little all of those things but basically it was the lakers i'm from the i'm from la and that that's the lakers for us you know what i mean and so uh when i when i signed i did want to come in and work with
Starting point is 00:45:08 kendrick and q and have this you know super cohesive family relationship the same that i grew up on watching um and i think that that's not their fault that was just me being like naive it's like signing to the lakers you're like oh i'm about to go work out with kobe and this and then you realize like kobe don't work out with that just signed to the team like he don't even know if you're gonna steal you know what I'm saying like and so it was kind of like that was my expectation like oh I'm gonna get in with Soundwave and I'm uh you know what I mean like and it was really like no you're you're still signing to a label and like now the work begins and I even talk about that uh on the album on Gang how like I I thought that this was what it was gonna be um that's what that record is about
Starting point is 00:45:43 is me taking the accountability like I thought that this was what it was gonna be um that's what that record is about is me taking the accountability like I thought that this was what the situation was gonna be now that I'm here I realize it's not but it's love from like I have a great relationship with majority of the artists it's weird we live in a time now where when you tell the truth it sounds like you're like speaking down on some you know what I mean like I said I don't have a relationship with SZA everybody took that as like that was like bad thing I'm like well do the artists at Atlantic have relationships with Cardi B every artist at Atlantic don't got a relationship with Cardi. Everybody took that as like, that was like, bad thing. I'm like, well, do the artists at Atlantic have relationships with Cardi B? Every artist at Atlantic don't got a relationship with Cardi B. It's because of the perception that the general public has of labels.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Big labels are family. No, of small labels. Smaller labels. Like TDE, they say with Bad Boy, I'm sure they seen it with Roc-A-Fella, I'm sure they seen it with Death Row, so it's small labels. I know you broke down some of those lyrics, because you was telling me some of those lyrics. You just said it, but okay, a few things. Do you you feel like the issue between or the differences between you and td is just patience on your behalf like you just got i think i think it's a little bit of both um
Starting point is 00:46:33 i would say it's partly patience but then as well like my last album was three years ago i don't necessarily think that that's all patience like i don't know an up-and-coming artist that can consistently move with three-year gaps consistently within their music. If this was how it was going to go for the next 10 years, it's like, so yes, patience, because I do got to wait for things to get right. But it's also like, we also do kind of got to catch up with what the times are now, which is, it has to be a little bit faster. I can't remember what song it was, but it was a song on the album where you're talking about how your family thinks you got so much money and you done changed. Gang shit. That's the first verse.
Starting point is 00:47:10 So the first verse is about, I thought that it was family. I thought it was supposed to be gang shit. And look at how y'all act now that I'm in this situation. You think I got all this money. You think I have all this fame and stuff like that. But that's not really how my life is. And look at how you're acting now. And the climax of the verse is my family member yelling at me, calling me reason.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And I'm like, I thought you knew me as Rob. My entire life you called me Rob. Like, why are you now calling me reason? That came from a real place. Like, I got family members that call me reason. It's weird. Like, I've known you since I was two. They probably think you got way more than what you got.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Way more than what I got. Way busier than what I got. They say things like, oh, you know, I was going to text you, but I thought that, you know, I figured you would be busy. Like, why did you just assume i'm too busy to text you now because i'm quote unquote reason like that's you know i mean crazy to me so yeah that's sad um but i do want to start with just the intro of the projects um we're talking about porches but in it you talk about how you guys all are connected through the porches but also they feel kind of like entitled to what you got going on good or bad
Starting point is 00:48:05 yeah yeah how do you break that are you it's it's less of like entitled it's more about this is kind of what comes with it and the reason why i wanted to highlight that in the intro is because on every single hip-hop album we always hear people talk about the negative stuff that went on in their neighborhood it's always i'm from the hood die chalk outlines blah blah blah but for me i wanted to highlight that there's great things that come with that too there's persistence you know what i mean my there's there's my sister taught me to be brave and take leaps on things that i want in life you get i'm saying like my mom taught me rationality my pops hustled he taught me how to hustle like there's great things
Starting point is 00:48:39 that come from being with those places and all of those things kind of come into it instead of us just only highlighting like the negative stuff on broken winter break you say i was born in this machine some is still in it how did you find your way out honestly i went to school in iowa which is crazy to say i played basketball and um i was out there with all the white people in iowa and that was like a culture shock um i had never been coming from where i was from i didn't have a white relationship in my life until i went out there i'm being i know that sounds crazy I didn't have a white relationship in my life until I went. I know that sounds crazy. I didn't have a white. I'm being dead ass here.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Before I went to college, I didn't have a white relationship in my life. There was nobody that I talked to in any type of consistent format that was white. And then I went to Iowa and there were three black people in my school, including me. You know what I mean? And so that just gave me a different perspective of how life is and understanding that everything isn't so vain and in this box and whatnot. You know what I mean? And so it made me grow up a lot. And then when I came back, I was just like, no, I want to do more because I've seen a little bit of the world.
Starting point is 00:49:33 You know what I mean? So, yeah, just put a different perspective on me. Is Broken Winter Break based off a true story? Like the story you tell? Yeah, it's about my homeboy, but I didn't want to put his name in there. But my homeboy came back off of a winter break. You could tell that he was a little bit different of a person. Ended up getting robbed.
Starting point is 00:49:49 And it's about the mindset of, you know, you come back home, you get robbed. He's not really tripping because he's just like, I don't really care about this shit. But he's feeling pressured as a man from his neighborhood that we got to go get it back. And so he has to put on this front like, yo, I'm with whatever. But really in his mind, he's like, I don't want to do like this stupid i don't want to do it but then ultimately at the end the story is really about his little brother that's sitting there on the porch watching all this because his little brother is seeing it and this is what his little brother grows up to be and then later on the album you have bussing slash it says wb part two but that's winter break part
Starting point is 00:50:19 two and so bussing is the little the little boy when he's older you get i'm saying that so now he's on a whole different mindset because this is all that he saw. Now talk to me about Caucasian Estates because you said you hated white people. See, like, my headlines are going crazy. I do not hate white people. I don't hate white people. Reasons do not like white people. So Caucasian Estates is like, what is that, mansions?
Starting point is 00:50:39 Yeah, so it starts with me describing the porch, and then the next record is Caucasian Estates. And there's a date set in there, which is July 2017. That's when I met Musa. And basically the mindset is, as soon as niggas get a little bit of money, that's the first thing we want to do is get a better car and go live in a white neighborhood. So it's Caucasian Estates.
Starting point is 00:50:55 We want to go live in a... And so it's like a braggy, cocky song, because that's how I felt when I met Musa and I was about to sign with TD. I'm like, I'm going to have all the money, all the women. I'm about to go get me a crib out here i'm about to drive and that's how your mind automatically is so yeah that's caucasian estates i know we're talking about you putting together a cohesive project and having skits and i love that but i gotta say i do hate some of your skits because like it i just don't like the way you painted the women saying like there's always a
Starting point is 00:51:22 who could take care of us and all that yeah that's not i mean that's always the case it's not always the case that's just like the truth of what i grew up around like that was like not not like like my sister and my close friends but like that's kind of like the women when i grew up like the women's attitude was like you know what one man won't do for you another man will and that was kind of like the way that they they carried themselves but there's also a woman in the group that she's the one that's like, she wants to stay with her dude. Yeah, she got hope. You get what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:51:50 And that was about my homegirl. I had a homegirl that she was just a hopeless romantic. She always, no matter how much her friends was like that, she was like, I do have hope that I'll find a man that, you know what I mean, can actually be that man. So for me, that was like, it was my truth. It was what I saw. How do you feel when the women you use for skits ask you for scissor tickets and you can't get it yo shut up man i can get scissor tickets man i just you know i might not be able to you know
Starting point is 00:52:15 go on stage no i'm joking i'm juggling i'm joking before they take that out of context but yes i can get scissor tickets okay her show, actually. You are such a troll. My goodness. I thought you were asking me to get Kendra tickets. That was crazy. That was crazy. All right, we got more with Reason. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Reminding you, one day left to my car show. My car show is this weekend. Cars, rides, games, family fun. Kids five and under are free can't wait to see you this weekend but we got a special guest in the building you know i'm from tde
Starting point is 00:52:50 reason is here charlamagne why'd you call gina august alcina in perversity it's a fun record and i'll say on kookas like august alcina i just like the line so i just called it yeah i called it august alcina that's probably like my favorite story that's broken in like the last 10 years i love the entire like the entire will smith walk i want a documentary on that that entire situation is just like the most fascinating thing to me like any because it's just like will smith is like the guy like he's fresh prince like he's like and so i look at things in different perspectives like everybody else saw it as like damn i can't believe you slapped i'm like there's a story there like he ain't just slap him because of that night like there's something there that's like trauma there's a lot of yeah you know what i mean and you know his wife being on the show and talking
Starting point is 00:53:31 about everything and the pot like they should do a documentary on that like that's a very very interesting story and i feel like people just focus on the climaxes of the story but i'm like it's a lot to unfold there like that's literally my favorite story if they're all healed if that if that family's healed if the if the family's yeah if the family's i don't think that story becomes a story without that red table talk with will and jay i agree i don't think i agree nowhere near but even but even that is there's something to unpack there it's like why is that conversation happening on red table talk there's something behind there's something there that's like that's allowing that to get out you get i'm saying to be a thing you don't like to see like things that should be private public yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:54:09 similar to the the yeah you know i got where you're going i love too much too the melly melly mal yeah yeah yeah who's melly mal to you that's the homie uh we used to call him melly mail um i don't want to put his whole government out there but i went to high school with him. And he went to a party. He was like top 10 running back in the nation. Went to a party, got into a fight. A guy got killed.
Starting point is 00:54:32 And, you know, he knew the person that did it, but he got arrested for it. And so he sat in jail for a year and his entire life changed. Lost all of his scholarships. Like major setback, but he felt like he couldn't. Of course, where we from, you can't tell who did it. So you just got to kind of sit until the whole thing plays out um and even that story that's one thing i like about all the stories on the album is that there's two stories in it it's what
Starting point is 00:54:51 happened to melvin but then it's also about black men and how we handle our issues because the other story behind it is when i called him and he was in jail and i asked him how he was doing he just said he was fine and it's like that's another thing it's like we we don't talk about the shit that we're going through so it's a two-folded conversation in that and i remember thinking like there's no way he could be like this this whole life is completely gone like he was headed to the nfl and now he don't know where he going you know what i mean and so but he was just always like no i'm cool like you know it is what it is and i could just tell that it affected him and the other thing with that song is like there's no reward for real yeah there's there's no it's no it's no
Starting point is 00:55:25 like like like pot of gold at the end of that you get i'm saying like it's snitch you sat in jail for you came home to what yeah like you said it's no reward for that but honestly if he was to really open up and tell you how he really feels you think like you'd be able to handle it i would but i do understand what you're saying but i think it's less about that i think it's more about like black men just aren't taught that like like we're taught from a young age like life ain't fair get over it don't complain don't cry suck it up yeah we're taught that from a young so i think it's less about the person receiving i think it's more about the fear of like i look weak if i talk about it like i look like less of a man i look like i'm complaining like i say this all the time my home
Starting point is 00:56:01 girls i'm like girls night is the healthiest in the world y'all just gather up drink wine and just complain which is like getting things off your chest you're unpacking you're unloading and then y'all have fun and then you leave there feeling lighter than like guys don't have that we get together like like i had a homie that i went to uh watch a game with we were in the bar for like three hours watching the game and we talked about sports for three hours i leave the bar i figure out that like his his girl about to damn near put him he about to damn near lose his family we ain't talking about that for the whole three hours. I leave the bar. I figure out that like his girl about to damn near put him away. He about to damn near lose his family. We ain't talk about that
Starting point is 00:56:26 for the whole three hours. We just talking about LeBron and how LeBron is the greatest person in the NBA. And it's like we don't unpack those things because we're taught that you can't talk to another
Starting point is 00:56:35 man about it. If you talk to your girl about it, you look weak. So it's like where do you go with it? You just kind of turn to different vices. And I've been there.
Starting point is 00:56:41 Charlamagne doesn't feel that way by the way. He thinks of Steph Curry. You said LeBron. What's your thoughts? What do you mean? I think Steph is top five of all time.
Starting point is 00:56:48 I think he's got... Yeah, okay, yeah. I got him at three. Yeah, I got him at four. I got Jordan, Kobe, Steph, LeBron, and Magic. You got them before LeBron? Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:57 You're crazy. I got Kobe at one, Jordan at two, LeBron at three, Steph at four, and I got Shaq at five. But clearly I'm biased because that's a lot of...
Starting point is 00:57:03 And history is going to show that LeBron and Steph met up in NBA Finals. Yep. What, four times? Yeah, four times. Four times. Yeah. And Steph won. He's 3-1 against LeBron in NBA Finals. That matters. It does matter, but at the same time, he had KD. So what? He didn't always have KD?
Starting point is 00:57:20 The championship thing is weird, though. It's not all about championships. It's about a lot of other stuff, too. It's about all the accolades. I feel like LeBron is the most accomplished basketball player of all time. I feel like that does matter. When you say accomplished, what do you mean accomplished? All of the accolades, all of the accomplishments that he's done, the scoring, like where he is at in the scoring list.
Starting point is 00:57:36 Assists, rebounds. That's that, though. When I think accomplishments, I mean, he's got a lot of those. Even the all-NBA teams, all-stars, MVP, like he's accomplished. Like he's the most. How many final appearances? Michael Jordan's got six finals MVPs, bro. That's fine, but he don't have as many accomplishments.
Starting point is 00:57:53 That has to do with a team. I'm talking about all of your accomplishments. That has to do with you as an individual. Michael Jordan's stat sheet is crazy. You think Michael Jordan's stats are better than LeBron James? Maybe that stat, but accolades, when you put all the accolades my bad my bad yeah my my my i'm sorry yeah let's get back to them i don't want to put you out much let's go back to something you're talking about yeah yeah therapy that's why i'm so big on therapy right because people that go to therapy have no
Starting point is 00:58:19 problem having those conversations like when you talk about these women having girl nights out it's because a lot of them already go to therapy they're already seeking healing so it's easy for them to have these conversations amongst each other yeah i noticed with my guys that people around me that are already in therapy and seeking some healing we have no problem having those conversations for sure i agree but i think women are doing that before they even get into therapy i think women are naturally just better at talking about their feelings and it's because of how we're brought up like i remember as a kid like going through stuff and my dad being like like suck it up stop crying like and that's not a knock at him he just doing what he was taught you know what i mean but i vividly remember being balled up with rage and not knowing how to express
Starting point is 00:58:58 it and my dad's thing was like stop crying like but also you also feel like you don't want to look weak yeah and that was his thing he was like you're gonna look weak if you cry like stop crying. But also, you also feel like you don't want to look weak. Yeah, and that was his thing. He was like, you're going to look weak if you cry. Like, stop crying. Like, suck it up. Like, I'm like, but that ain't fair. Like, life ain't fair. Like, get over it. You know how many things ain't fair for me?
Starting point is 00:59:11 Like, that's how I was brought up. You know what I mean? If I come up here and cry, some of them are going to call me a beige bitch. Yeah, exactly. They're going to talk about you being a light skin. That is not true. My dad is a light skin.
Starting point is 00:59:18 I've seen it. That is not true. See, I've seen it. That was back in the day, though. When he do be crying over some bulls**t. See? See? Some stuff don't even have to cry over. See? Yous. See? Some stuff doesn't need to cry over.
Starting point is 00:59:26 See? You know. See? I'm just saying. Yeah, we got to be able to express ourselves a little bit better. I was reading some comments online, Twitter, YouTube, and they're saying that your album is one of their favorite albums of the year right next to Mike.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Killer Mike. Yeah. How does that feel? Which is a crazy compliment because I love Killer Mike's album. But I felt that way, and I felt that way before it was dropped. And not because it's my album, but I also felt that way because it's been a light year for rap. It just hasn't been that great. I do think the second half of the year is about to be stacked.
Starting point is 00:59:53 I know Drake's dropping. But I felt like when I'm listening to all the albums and they're coming out, I'm like, oh, no. I'm going to have probably one of the better albums in rap this year. You know what I mean? But for people to put it next to Killer Mike's, that's a huge compliment because that was my favorite album this year like when that dropped i was like nah like this is that's the that's the goal that's the year that was like that was the one so yeah now that's been like the the craziest compliment for sure for sure i love that yeah well i actually just want to say this michael jordan has six championships
Starting point is 01:00:20 six finals mvps like I told you, five regular season MVPs, one defensive player of the year, ten scoring titles, one rookie of the year, one Hall of Fame. LeBron has four championships, four MVPs, four regular season MVPs, one scoring title, one rookie of the year. MJ played against Bums. All right, stop it now. I want to play music back and forth.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Did he say Bums? MJ played against Bums. You forget we played against him? He played against Bums. You can't name five high-level wings that he played against. People talk about Reggie Miller. Reggie Miller's a bum compared to Klay Thompson. Like, Klay Thompson's better than Reggie Miller.
Starting point is 01:00:51 It's just a different level of... Reggie Miller was a beast. We need to wash him off with soap, young man. Why are you doing this? Bro, it wasn't... Why are you doing this? Back then, it was bigs. It wasn't wings.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Now it's wings. Like, Bron and them have played against just better. They played against better talent. That's my whole thing. I want reason to leave now. Reason, we appreciate you for joining us, brother. We're going to play gang s*** right now. Yeah, let's play gang s***.
Starting point is 01:01:15 Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy.

Starting point is 01:07:02 Morning, everybody. We are The Breakfast Club. We got JoJo and Big Homie there, our guest co-host this morning. And it's time to get to the rumors. Let's go. Let's go. You created a platform where your opinion doesn't matter. I'm not controversial.
Starting point is 01:07:17 I just say what the f*** I want to say. And when Mike come on, he be saying something totally different. I be calling your ass home. Radio different. This is The Rumor Report. be saying something totally different i'd be calling your ass on radio different this is the rumor report on the breakfast club all right so fat joe denied drake's request to be on All The Way Up. All right, so... What?
Starting point is 01:07:46 Yeah, so Fat Joe recently appeared on an episode of the Rap Radar podcast. During the interview, he spoke on Drake practically begging to be featured on All The Way Up and why he decided not to let him do the verse. We have audio for that. Drake FaceTimed me three times trying to get on all the way up middle of the night send me the instrument to send me the instrument to i wish i would have got drake on but the fact of all the history of me and jay-z i was like it gotta be just me and jay-z and it's
Starting point is 01:08:19 the last time drake ever asked me to do a song. But nah, man. Drake got my forgiving beat out of it. Nah, Drake got to forgive me, huh? I'm like, damn, man, please. Throw me a Frisbee. But yeah, it's true. All the way up was that big that we had the best. You know, 50 Cent was everybody you could name who's a monster was hitting us up like, yo, send the pro tools.
Starting point is 01:08:44 That wouldn't have stepped on the j moment though i mean drake well the jay didn't happen joe right the jay was on the remix yeah what was the record because all the way up it was j it was drake i mean uh remy ma remy ma and jay z all the way up okay was all the way up because it was a double record uh yeah french martin was in the hook. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, because there was another record that Fat Joe had Jay on.
Starting point is 01:09:10 And then, remember he sent me the record? And then they pulled it back. Jay didn't want to use that verse. That's what I thought it was. Remember, I played you the record. I don't think you're supposed to be saying that. Wow. Big mouth.
Starting point is 01:09:18 Big beige mouth. Pause. See, there you go. That's very descriptive. I don't even know. The thing is, though, it kind of reminds me of like, I mean, you snooze, you lose. You snooze. Is that what they say? But that was a bold thing for Fat Joe to do because 2016 Drake was different.
Starting point is 01:09:33 Well, I mean, Drake be different every year, but 2016 Drake was at his peak. Yeah, but it was Fat Joe and Jay, and they've had known beef and known problems. And I think that was the first record that they were going to be on together. So he wanted that Jay look. It was just the better fit. It was a better look, they were gonna be on together. So he wanted that J look It was a better better. I guess at that time. Okay. Well, um, that was from the rap radar podcast to we said that right? Yes, right radar podcast. Yeah, see Elliot, but Elliot. I just want to say Elliot be acting like we don't be playing his clips He thinks he's the only person that be supporting folks out here because he repost on Instagram like every other blog page does Yeah, so, you know.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Reiterating. I just want to reiterate. You could have just said it's from the Rap Radar podcast. No, I need to let him. He needs to know. Yeah, he needs to know. We've had this conversation
Starting point is 01:10:12 off air, so I just want to say it. But when they go low. Oh, this is personal. I go to the floor with him. I breakdance. Okay, I know that's right. That's like this one right here.
Starting point is 01:10:20 But Polo G has been arrested. So Polo G's brother, Trench Baby, invited an unidentified Man to the house to film a music video But when he got there Trench Baby pulled a gun out on him And robbed him despite the fact that they Previously worked together
Starting point is 01:10:35 Trench Baby was charged with armed robbery And Polo G was charged for illegal possession Of a firearm So you're the brother And you're the one robbing people? You're robbing a videographer? Tough guy card. Well, see, we gotta know.
Starting point is 01:10:52 We gotta say allegedly. We gotta see what happened. It could have been, maybe the guy took footage. They got it, got it. So I'm sure it's a misunderstanding. But he might have took some footage that wasn't proper and they said he stole he stole it but gotta say allegedly allegedly yeah because you don't know what happened because if you if somebody comes to your house shoots a music video
Starting point is 01:11:12 let's just say you don't want your house in the music video and i take that so you take the footage that can be considered you know robbery if the person goes to report hey this guy just took x y and z for me wow you. I don't know if that would happen. I'm just saying, you know. I don't believe that story is what I'm saying. Well, Polo G was released on bond, and then he was arrested again for an alleged kidnapping, then released on bond.
Starting point is 01:11:34 I don't believe any of this. That is a lie. He's going through a lie right now. Well, an alleged kidnapping. Who did he allegedly kidnap? They don't say who he allegedly kidnapped. The Mercury Retrograde is killing Polo G right now. Probably the person who... I don't say who he allegedly kidnapped. The Mercury Rental gang is killing Polo G right now. Probably the person who
Starting point is 01:11:45 got the footage taken. I don't know. I don't believe any of this. Polo G got it, got it. Like they got it. They're successful. I can't see them robbing anybody
Starting point is 01:11:53 or taking anything. So that's why we say allegedly. Robbing and kidnapping. Absolutely not. I don't see it. We'll say allegedly. Angel Reese,
Starting point is 01:11:59 she has decided to take online classes. For those who may not know who she is, if you don't, you're under a rock. But LSU basketball star, superstar, Andrea Reese. She did an interview with Team Vogue about her sudden rise to fame.
Starting point is 01:12:14 And she decided to take online classes because she's getting too much fame on campus. So she just thinks it's more peaceful if she just stays off campus. Off campus. Yeah. She actually said, this is her actual quote. She said, I didn't think I was going to be on the shade room every time I post something. I don't feel like I'm a celebrity, but I think a lot of people look at me as a celebrity now because of the impact that I've had on not just women's basketball, but sports in general and black women. Things have changed for me.
Starting point is 01:12:44 Okay. That's interesting i wonder what's changed you know so much because you know she is famous now but it's not like lsu hasn't had super famous people she killed one deal with the lsu yeah but joe burrow went to lsu angel angel reese is the most famous women's basketball player on the planet social media is also different like way different now i don't even think it existed when she was pregnant like joe burrow was just there a couple of years ago. Joe Burrow won a Heisman Trophy.
Starting point is 01:13:07 He won the national championship as a senior. He was the number one pick. He might have liked that attention, though. That's true, too. Yeah, but she's in magazines and she's in music videos. She's the biggest women's basketball player on the planet and still in college. But like you said, they might have liked that attention. She might not have liked that attention.
Starting point is 01:13:24 She might just want to go and do her job, do her class, and get out. And maybe people are coming asking for pictures and selfies, and she's like,
Starting point is 01:13:30 you know what, let me just concentrate on me. Yeah, everybody thinking about their own social media platforms. Exactly. They probably don't even look at her like a person.
Starting point is 01:13:38 They just look at her as content. Oh, exactly. She's a prop. Yeah, and ain't nobody trying to do that, especially if you're in school. You're trying to learn.
Starting point is 01:13:45 She can't get caught doing nothing, digging in her nose, pulling a wedgie out. And ain't nobody trying to do that, especially if you're in school. You're trying to learn. She can't get caught doing nothing. Digging in her nose, pulling a wedgie out. Somebody get that on video, it's going to make a blog. Yeah. Anybody got time for that. Anybody got time for that.

In a slide of five pictures yesterday the last picture she posted is a video of her seemingly receiving oral uh sex on the balcony so um yeah um some comments called her tasteless and others supported her saying that the pic is a vibe so the pic is like her she got her legs up and then uh she got like a dude i guess in between her legs we don't know if they're really actually doing it or if she's just taking freaky freaky freaky friday yeah so you know it's just a it's a little post i didn't see the picture but i know nowadays if you identify as a vibe you can get

Starting point is 01:15:23 I think the cycle needs to start. All right. That is your rumor report. Charlemagne, who you giving that donkey to? Man, four after the hour, speaking to somebody who may need to go to the gym.
Starting point is 01:15:32 Jesus. Donald J. Trump should come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him, please. Well, he's only 6'3", 215 pounds, he said. He identifies as a vibe. We're going to talk about it.
Starting point is 01:15:39 All right, it's The Breakfast Club. Come on. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. The darkest evil in the Conjuring universe returns in The Nun 2. The sequel to the worldwide phenomenon, The Nun, follows Sister Irene as she comes face-to-face with the demonic force, Valet, the demon nun.
Starting point is 01:15:58 The Nun 2, now playing only in theaters, rated R. Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States. Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out. He's fired. He's fired. Trump, please step up to the congregation. Yes, you are a dog. When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing drugs.
Starting point is 01:16:32 They're bringing crime. They're rapists. These are jackass. Yes, dog here today for Friday, August 25th. Close to the former celebrity in chief, Donald J. Trump. Ask not why Donald J. Trump is getting the biggest hee-haw today. Ask what did he do to get the biggest hee-haw today. Ask what did he do to get the biggest hee-haw today? See, we are gathered here today at
Starting point is 01:16:49 Hee-Haw Missionary Baptist to give Donald J. Trump the credit he deserves for being insecure. Let me tell you something, man. A few years ago, there was a great article in The Atlantic written by Tom Nichols. Drop on a clues bomb for Tom Nichols. Don't know him, but I love that article. It's called Donald Trump, the most unmanly president. Damn. tom asked a lot of great questions in this article but the most
Starting point is 01:17:09 important one to me is why don't the president's supporters hold him to their own standard of masculinity uh on this friday august 25th i need to know because yesterday donald trump got booked in fulton county jail he was made to go through the whole process of booking in jail including a mugshot sidebar alvin bragg jack smith whoever was behind trump's previous three indictments shame on you for not making trump take a mugshot all this time trump could have been taking mugshots he actually should have four already all right i think four four indictments a mugshot for each indictment 91 criminal charges and this is his first mugshot simply because y'all didn't make him take one this is why historically folks have repeated this quote if you want something said ask a man if you
Starting point is 01:17:50 want something done ask a woman dropping the clues bombs for fannie mae willis okay mugshots ain't dead y'all dudes just scared now back to trump's insecurities when donald trump was booked yesterday in fulton county jail his jail records came out and it had all his charges on there. It had his booking number, his inmate number, P.O. One one three five eight oh nine. If you're wondering, it had his height and weight. It had his hair is blonde or strawberry. I don't even know what the hell strawberry color hair means.
Starting point is 01:18:16 I guess red. But to me, his hair color is more kiwi fruit than strawberry. But forget the hair. Let's get to his height and weight. Donald Trump said on his jail record that he was 6'3 215 pounds clearly they asked him his height and weight or asked his age his height and weight because scales hips and big backs don't lie but trump does and this is what i don't understand and this is what tom nichols from the atlantic was asking how come trump supporters don't hold
Starting point is 01:18:41 trump to the same standards of masculinity that they hold others to we all know trump is a liar okay i thought masculine men alpha males look down upon liars because y'all keep it real okay and i wonder how y'all would react to someone you don't consider manly lying about their devil damn weight you know how slim and fit trump would be if he was 6'3 215 pounds i know people are making jokes, but mugshots are important because if somebody goes on the run, they need a description. Okay, 6'3", 215 pounds, strawberry blonde hair, none of that describes Trump. Alright, if he wasn't one of the most famous people in the world and was just some dude who decided to go on the run after committing all these crimes, you wouldn't recognize him based off this description. But this is an example of him not being a man's man, which is why I don't understand why Trump supporters who claim to be the men of all men support someone who will lie so blatantly, especially about something like his weight.
Starting point is 01:19:35 This is IG model behavior. OK, Trump puts the skinny filter from TikTok on his jail records and y'all acting like you don't see it. Donald Trump might be 6'3 but he is not 215 pounds donald trump is easily uh 6'3 and weighs about chris christie okay maybe not chris christie but he definitely weighs about peter griffin and i and i don't understand why all these so-called alpha males hold him up as the standard for what men should be because as the writer windsor man is noted trump behaves in ways that many working class men would ridicule. He wears bronzer, loves gold and gossip, is obsessed with his physical appearance, whines
Starting point is 01:20:12 constantly, can't control his emotions, watches daytime TV, enjoys parades and interior decorating, and used to sell perfume. And now we know that he isn't just obsessed with his physical appearance, he lies about his weight imagine being so privileged that you are facing all these charges and the thing that's on your mind is your weight and lying about it when you get there donald trump said he is 6'3 215 pounds let me tell you something man do you know who is 6'3 215 pounds me no you're not lamar jackson all pro starting quarterback of the baltimore ravens who back in may signed a five-year 260 million dollar deal is six to 215 pounds exactly does donald
Starting point is 01:20:54 trump look like lamar jackson to you huh no absolutely imagine donald trump wasn't donald trump and he was just some dude you met online built the way he is telling you he's built like lamar jack Jackson and then he pulled up to your house talking about what's up huh? Not a damn thing. That's right. Okay, it was a little late but you understand what I'm saying? I do.
Starting point is 01:21:14 All right, real recognizes real and insecurity recognizes insecurity. All you fake alpha males love Trump because he too is a fake alpha male. No matter how much he acts like an insecure little child, you all will support him because you see yourself in him. And Thomas Nichols put it best in this Atlantic article. He said Trump will continue to act like a little boy and his base, the voters who will stay with him to the end will excuse him. When a grown man brags about being brave, it is unmanly and distasteful. When a little boy pulls out a cardboard sword and ties a towel around his neck like a cape, it's endearing. When a rich and powerful old man whines about how unfairly he is being treated,
Starting point is 01:21:49 we scowl and judge. When a little boy, you know, snuffles in his tears and says that he was bullied, treated worse than Abraham Lincoln even, we comfort. And you know why? Because America is sympathetic towards fat people. Which is why I don't know why he's lying about his weight. I think it's a tactic. I think he did that on purpose because he knows that folks will fat shame him and call him insecure then his supporters will defend him and call us hypocrites for fat shaming because y'all out here fake canceling lizzo for allegedly fat shaming which makes no sense because lizzo big too so for any of y'all who are upset with me right now for fat shaming donald trump this morning i want you to know that i identify as obese i am 5'6 27 pounds, and don't you dare call me a liar if you're not willing to call Trump one.
Starting point is 01:22:30 Please let Remy Ma give Donald Trump the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. Don't you dare. Don't you look at me like that. What's wrong with fat people? Nothing.
Starting point is 01:22:43 I am one. You're not one of us. I am 5'6", 275 pounds. How dare you? Don't claim my culture. You don't know what I identify as. You're appropriating fat culture. I identify as a fat person.
Starting point is 01:22:52 You're appropriating fat culture, Charlemagne. You're not big homie Charlemagne. I identify as a fat person. JoJo, big homie, our guest host. And JoJo, what is a snuffle? He said, what the hell is a snuffle? Who knows? What is that? Did you just make up a snuffle? Sniffle? Sniffle.jo what is a snuffle he said what the hell is a snuffle oh no what is
Starting point is 01:23:05 that you just make up a snuffle sniffle sniffle no it's snuffle that's why they used to call snuffle snuffle bro i just looked up snuffles it says snuffles is a bacterial infection in rabbits what the hell is a snuffle where you getting snuffle from i was like i've never heard snuffle you never heard of snuffle luffagus yes i heard of snuffle luffagus but not a snuffle hold on the head of the Fat Lives Matter committee. I saw him jiggling in my peripheral. Why is fat people getting all this slander this morning? He said, my obese application was denied. I'm sorry, maybe next year.
Starting point is 01:23:34 No. Stop appropriating our culture. I'm actually a part of the big, I'm a part of, what's it called? The committee? Oh, yeah. You know what? Yeah. What's the name of the committee?
Starting point is 01:23:41 What committee? The fat, what? I don't, let me. You gonna say the fat people committee? You want to beat your BBW? Is that what you're saying? Oh, BBW community? Community?
Starting point is 01:23:48 I love BBWs. No. I love them. What, bright beige women? Big, beautiful women. Is that what BBW stands for? Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:57 I love BBWs. And I'm sorry, you're right. Snuffle's a common term for a runny nose. Bruh. Snuffleupagus, man. I never heard of Snuffleupagus. Did they... Snuffleupagus? I thought it never heard of Snuffleupagus. Did they? Snuffleupagus?
Starting point is 01:24:06 I thought it was because of the lashes. I ain't gonna lie. That's the one with the lashes, right? Yeah, he got lashes. Oh, she got lashes. He has?
Starting point is 01:24:12 You don't know what he identifies from? That's right. We do not know what Snuffleupagus identifies as. That's right. Snuffleupagus was
Starting point is 01:24:18 the original day. All right. Okay. All right. When we come back, Friday will be joining us. Yes, Friday. he's an artist he signed to def jam he was the joint he sang on the god did he sing on that joint with uh john ledger
Starting point is 01:24:31 so we're gonna kick it with him when we come back he has an album out today so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning did you say peace bt only thing in church that was interesting to me was the music you know what i'm saying so that's where i'll focus on. So I remember like one Sunday, all the musicians left the old school. And I just went up and just start playing stuff by ear. Like everything they'll sing, I'll try to just follow it. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:24:55 And then I would just transition to every instrument. And that's how I learned how to play music. I would say that one thing about Haititian parents there's always a musician in the household like the person that actually taught me how to dj he's haitian right and his father taught him how to play the trumpet the saxophone and how to work the turntables and it was the weirdest thing ever but and how to produce and he just knew all of that and it was the same thing they they love music but you had to stay to school yeah they love it that's crazy because my pop made me play the trumpet when I was a youngin'.
Starting point is 01:25:26 That was just something he wanted me to do, but he looked at it as fun. You know what I'm saying? That's nothing. They really looked at it like, you could do this for fun. You're talented, but if you don't go to college, be a doctor or something, you got to leave the house, bro, or we look at you as a failure. Did you pop in college? I started making music in ninth grade.
Starting point is 01:25:44 I remember my cousin Marco, music spirit. He taught me how to produce and being a musician I was in church. It was like as soon as I went in the studio, I produced my own track, wrote my own track. And I did everything 100%. So since like eighth, ninth grade, I've been doing music like every day. Perfecting my craft. Not even dropping music. I was just so in love with it.
Starting point is 01:26:01 When I went to college, I started releasing music. You know what I'm saying? I'm introducing myself as Friday but it's really not working you know I'm saying I got no marketing don't believe in me none of that so that's how it all started what was the big break what was the first time when somebody's actually heard you like oh this is really gonna work um it was always like bro you hella talented so anybody I ever play my music to they knew like bro you one of them ones but like but the first time it actually broke off was probably, like, during quarantine.
Starting point is 01:26:28 Like, I remember I went to L.A. in, like, 2019. Me and my cousins, we had, like, $4,000. I remember, like, the Revolt Summit, Diddy used to throw. I went to that joint before I went back home. Atlanta. Yeah, he threw one in L.A., though, in 2019. And it was a line you could play music for. And, like like that was like
Starting point is 01:26:45 the first time like A&R like heard me I played my music he was like you got like a soulful voice like you remind me of like Ty Dolla at the time he was working with Ty Dolla so that was like the first person and I went I went back home to Philly like I got one connect you know I'm saying like I could create you know I'm saying and during that time I met my manager Edgar I told you like I was on artist move you know I'm saying and he was like bro you think about songwriting it might be an easier way for you to get in the door if you don't got no emotion going on as an artist like i'm telling you like we could push this on some songwriting tip you know what i'm saying so when i went back home i would make like probably like 10 to 12 songs a
Starting point is 01:27:20 week and just send it to my manager egger and we'll just move it around during that process i was working with my producer denuso he was about to sign the deal on some publishing and the a&r that heard my hooks on his beats was like who that like we're about to sign you but who that and that's how i got my first pub deal like that was like my first wow break of music like 20 during quarantine where did the voice come from because you know you i can hear you in your philly all day yeah where did that so that soulful voice come from? It sounds like a sample. Yeah, it's church.
Starting point is 01:27:48 But they got a lot to do with church and my parents being Haitian. A lot of the music, Haitian music, it's based off feeling. So they're not the best singers. I wouldn't say the Haitians, they're not the best singers. But when they sing, you feel it. You know what I'm saying? So it's a mixture of church and the pain of the Haitian it you know what I'm saying so it's a mixture of church and like the pain
Starting point is 01:28:06 of the Haitian you know what I'm saying Haitian music and all that how'd you hook up with Khaled so um like I said I used to be on some songwriting tip right
Starting point is 01:28:13 the person I signed to the publishing label the lady had left and I remember I was in this deal like how you gonna leave me here like I only signed here cause of you
Starting point is 01:28:21 you know what I'm saying I ain't know nobody at the head or nothing so we was looking for a buyout you know what i'm saying my manager egger was connected to mary j blige manager eddie he kept telling him bro like i'm telling you he the one bro just buy him out this deal everything about to go crazy like you know what i'm saying egger just telling him and during that time i hit up timbaland i had timbaland number on my phone i sent him like how you get timbaland number on your phone. I sent him, like... How you get Timbaland's number on your phone? The producer, Denuso, that hot, hot, got the first deal.
Starting point is 01:28:47 He's from Virginia. So, I remember, like, 2021, he been put us in the chat. But I was going into 2022, like, you know how you go into 22, like, I'm about to take this up another level. I'm just looking through my contacts. I see Timbaland. I'm like, bro, I never used this contact, bro. Like, you know what I'm saying? So, I sent him, like, probably, like, 10 to 12 hooks slash samples of my voice the next day bro like he on instagram like every other day tagging me
Starting point is 01:29:09 making a beat to it just took everything up or not it's like every a1 producer that you know was in my dm so the guy eddie he ended up buying me out buying me out my deal and that's when chris brown song came out i wrote for chris brown on on breezy will swallow if you need you right here and then I remember I made God did in my room bro like Cali was on the Instagram every day saying God did God did every time you said it that just it just touched my heart you know I'm saying so I created a simple around it not even knowing Cali I'm gonna get this to me I'll call Edgar I'm like brother I got this drum called god did he like bro make another one like make a real hook i'm gonna get this to him remember that day i made god did i played edgar we called
Starting point is 01:29:52 eddie eddie like bro i got kyle's number i'm about to send it to him i sent it to kyle kyle hit us the next day like i need this on my album wow so you added the beat too or it was another it was just how you heard it like my piano and my hook. So when I sent it to Khaled, he added the beat. At first, it was supposed to be my song, like God did in the little Friday. Just that, we started the paperwork. Days go by, he like, bro, I just put three rappers on this. He ain't a singer.
Starting point is 01:30:18 Like, this is going to live forever, bro. When he said that, I'm already thinking Kanye, Nas, Jay-Z, just to level it up. You know what I'm saying? He didn't tell you who it was. He didn't tell me who it was. I was like, I didn't know who it was until the song came out. I didn't even hear the song. So that's how God did came.
Starting point is 01:30:33 Would you have still felt like God did if they had took you off? Shut up, man. I still would have, bro, because I'm still going number one. Still get paid. I'm still getting paid. I'm still with number 17, Hot 100 Billboard. So it's still a God did, but this is different because i always knew i was an artist bro even when i was songwriting i had projects ready like this for my artist you know i'm saying so
Starting point is 01:30:53 this was like the perfect way for me to art here i am bro like i knew who i was while i was writing like i knew this was my way to get in all right we got more with friday when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody is dj DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Friday. God, being your first introduction to the world and having legends on that record, do you feel like put pressure for your artistry? Because your first song to the world has Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Wayne.
Starting point is 01:31:25 I don't feel like that at all, bro. I make good music, bro. So I be telling people, they all come down to the music. The only pressure I got is to make good music. And I know that's what I'm always going to do. I don't care about a lot of the other stuff. You know what I'm saying? People know what I added value to God did, how that hook touched people.
Starting point is 01:31:42 And I'm always going to be able to create that that energy that feeling you know what i'm saying so that's the only pressure like bro just keep giving good music i remember you saying how like when the record came out people didn't put two and two together that you were friday yeah the whole twitter was like who is this boy like it don't sound like john legend who you know i'm saying like i remember like the record came out i'm walking around the city like song playing at every car nobody knows me like I'm walking around the city like so I'm playing at every car Nobody knows me like I'm walking around chilling. You know I'm saying I think my cousin came to the crib like bro We gotta celebrate you know I'm saying I said bro. I'm got a dollar in my pocket a second come yet So I'm like he like I'm gonna get a section bro on me went out bro song keep playing all day

He like, it's gonna change. He keeps saying it's gonna change. Like tell you a new star is born. Let's talk about some of the music. Well, I think we should start with When It Comes To You. I feel like that record is going crazy right now. And I think what people really appreciate it is just the message, like commitment and wanting to work things out with somebody and i feel like that's kind of like a rare thing for our generation people don't be on that type of time they do that's why i made the song bro like there'd be a lot of like bulls**t bro like and like a lot of these artists really
Starting point is 01:32:57 don't be meaning it bro like it'd be a lot of songs about i got options i can go to the next bull you know what i'm saying but saying But All these people Got one boy All these artists Got one husband One boyfriend You know what I'm saying So I wasn't even Pushing marriage on people
Starting point is 01:33:11 Like with that video I was just pushing the subject Bro everybody got somebody bro Why don't you try to act cool Like bro it's cool to be You know what I'm saying Tell your person how you feel And put that music out
Starting point is 01:33:21 And just the reaction bro Was like We feel this way too Like the most people You never would have thought In my dm like i love this song you know what i'm saying just that's why i wanted like put the message on bro like everybody not on that most people not being that you hate you did you ask anybody in your family put a little sprinkle on your career that's not crazy i'm just saying Just say his dad is a pastor. Just say his dad is a pastor. I didn't say his dad, his mom. I said somebody in the family.
Starting point is 01:33:46 We got a sprinkle. We got God on our side, bro. That too? That is the sprinkle. That's all the sprinkle, bro. We good. Word. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 01:33:53 What's wrong with you? Back to the music. Don't give it away, but Chris Brown was also a huge record. Yeah. But I love on here that you did a part two. Yeah. What's the relationship of part one and part two? Part two is kind of like the breakdown, the vulnerable, like slow down version.
Starting point is 01:34:07 You know what I'm saying? So it's just in musical. You know what I mean? I got a saxophone in there. I got like a lot of like vocal elements in there. Is that you playing? No, no, this is Wumble. I don't know his name, but my manager Edgar reached out to him and he added the sax.
Starting point is 01:34:19 It's like on something like Marvin Gaye. It's very beautiful. It's jazzy. Yeah, that's how part two is, like a slow version. Yeah, i feel like in that you kind of elaborate on like you still claiming what's yours i just need to get myself together yeah for sure and and even throughout the project you're kind of talking about the same thing so it's like it's a battle for you no it ain't no battle for me i was coming from a good perspective with this project like i wasn't on no no crazy stuff like i was just saying like that song like just don't give it away like i'm you know i'm saying like i'm done playing what i'm playing with like i'm done playing games like i'm all in
Starting point is 01:34:53 okay um this project has like a gospel feel to it like i feel like it could be a gospel album but then also it's like turn up afro beat vibes so with the gospel part of it i feel like um that's something we don't really get anymore like a praise yeah for sure i wouldn't even call it gospel like it feel like it because like i'm giving so much soul and i'm bringing the choirs in lord have mercy i mean like yeah for sure but i'm talking like real life everyday stuff you know what i'm saying so that everyday people go go through you know what i'm saying like even mercy i'm like it's just every day i saw i'll call it friday bro like i don't say it's gospel because people that don't listen to gospel love them them styles of music for me you know what i'm saying how you end up locking in with a sake sake man shout out my guy
Starting point is 01:35:39 that was like right after god did right after god did a lot of africans just loved me bro like they thought i was one of them like friday from africa his voice just so give us that feeling so and then i remember like somebody put me on a sake he stole fire man i wanted to have a conversation with him when he was in town i don't know nobody that know him though it ain't bro like that whole album i ain't skipped one track not one and i was just in my room like hands up not even understanding the word you know what i'm saying and i dm them i told bro like i don't know what you're saying right now but you're my favorite artist i don't know what you're saying you're not hard to understand no he's not hard to understand but you gotta listen you gotta listen
Starting point is 01:36:19 a few times to really hear what he's saying i was just in my room like this and i i said i need you on something bro and then we hopped on the phone and i told him the same thing bro like i don't know what you're saying he was the first audit he was the first artist bro that i heard during the whole song he had a choir with him if you hear you hear what i'm saying like every verse it's a choir singing behind him so and i love the choir i'm like how you think of that like you're going through the whole song with a choir behind you he was like bro you don't gotta understand what i'm saying like it's music all about feeling and that's how we kind of connect like yeah like he like i feel you bro like god did i listen to that you know what i'm saying yeah did the fireboy joint come about
Starting point is 01:36:57 after god did as well or is that like i said like it was just a lot of afro artists who were fried like they love me like they treat me like I'm one of them. And I treat them like they, you know what I'm saying? Like, they're my favorite artists, too, because growing up in the Haitian house, all you listen to is Haitian music, Jamaican music, Afro music. Like, if you at a Haitian party, it's all one. So, like, when I get on the phone with these guys, they already know, like, he know what's going on. Like, even DeVito, like, I got something coming up with him. Like, I've been on him since 2015.

Starting point is 01:37:33 That's what they say in December. Dirty December. Beautiful out there. I know growing up in a Haitian household, you said you grew up listening to Afro beats and stuff like that. Did you grow up on hip hop? Not really in my household. So, like, I probably, like, started listening to hip-hop, like, probably, like, I was in
Starting point is 01:37:49 middle school. You know what I'm saying? What was, like, the entry album for you? So, like, see, like, when I started making music, I'm from Philly, so it was, like, Boyz the Men. You know what I'm saying? Then it was, like, Brian McKnight and then Jamie Foxx. And I used to always be on Jamie Foxx, bro.
Starting point is 01:38:03 Like, how he played the piano and sung, bro. I used to always be on Jamie Foxx bro like how he played the piano and sung bros I used to watch him every day but I remember he had to join Kanye West Golden Digger yeah and that's when I was like or Slow James yeah any one of them

Starting point is 01:46:59 Junko's making stuff up. Y'all remember that? No, I don't remember the single de Mayo versus Juneteenth. People were saying that black people were celebrating single de Mayo more than there was Juneteenth. People were saying that black people were celebrating Tickle De Mayo more than they was Juneteenth. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:07 That's fact. That's fact. That's fact. Because it's tequila. That's because people like tequila more than cognac. That's all. Tequila gets you lit.

Starting point is 01:48:00 What are you saying? Atlanta is just like New Yorkers when it comes to the pride. You know how New Yorkers be like, we were the... I'm from Atlanta. You're from Chicago. Yeah, but I'm just keeping it... It's just honest.
Starting point is 01:48:10 We the culture. Atlanta does influence a lot of music. Okay. And a lot of artists. I don't disagree. So, I mean, it is what it is. Who else we got now? All right.
