Starting point is 00:05:03 No, I'm not going to be 20 too much. Where you at? I'm home, man. I stayed up last night to watch the Republican National Convention. I felt like watching a West Coast basketball game last night. Why was that speech on so late last night? Well, he spoke so long. He spoke for 93 minutes, and I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:05:21 I was like, all right. First I seen Hulk Hogan, and I'm like, okay. Then it just kept going. Then Eric Trump spoke, uh, Donald Trump's son spoke for like an hour. I walked out of the room when that, well, no, I went to go pick my daughter up when that happened. I saw Hulk Hogan. No, I, I, I thought Trump's speech was, was pretty made. Hulk Hogan was pretty, um, Hulk Hogan was pretty good.
Starting point is 00:05:40 But I mean, it's Hulk Hogan. Like, I mean, you know, like all he had to do was go out there and be a hulk canadiac and what you gonna do when the hulkster he was right on you you gotta like like you know when you come up in a certain era if you was born in the 1900s that little bit of nostalgia you're gonna feel it regardless of whether you like them or not you know yep i pick up my body slam the giant oh.

Starting point is 00:06:23 Nope. No, it was no black performance. No black people on stage yesterday. No mini-men? Yeah, no mini-men didn't happen. I'll tell you what, though. It felt like the crowd didn't give a damn about Kid Rock U. Nah, nobody did. They were tired, too.
Starting point is 00:06:38 At that point, they were there for a minute. They were tired, too. Man, man, man, man. Is his Trump speech just long because he's so slow when he speaks? Because he takes a long time to say words. I mean, the first probably 30, 40 minutes of it was just him spiking the football. I did enjoy him breaking down the assassination attempt, though. Why?
Starting point is 00:07:00 That was hilarious. Because he started it off like, it was a warm and sunny day. It was a beautiful day out. was a warm and sunny day. It was a beautiful day out. The wind was blowing. One of the most beautiful days you've ever seen. Yes. It was just one of the most beautiful, warmest, happiest days you've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:07:14 People were happy. People were happy. They were outside. They were happy. They were the happiest. That was hilarious. The wind was blowing and people were just smiling because they just happy to be there in Pennsylvania. After that, he lost me.
Starting point is 00:07:29 I don't know what the hell he was talking about. Oh, man. All right. Well, Rap Man will be joining us this morning. Man, if you have seen the new show on Netflix called Supercell, I binge watched it on vacation. I thought it was fantastic.

Starting point is 00:08:07 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess Hilarious. Shalami Nagai. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, y'all.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Happy Friday. So did y'all watch the address last night? Trump addressed the RNC. So he formally accepted the Republican nomination for president at the RNC in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was the final day of the convention. And the first time he spoke publicly since the assassination attempt on his life on Saturday at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Now, Trump took to the stage and addressed the crowd in a notice noticeably softer tone. His aide said he rewrote his speech following the assassination attempt. And of course,
Starting point is 00:08:45 his theme was make America great again. Now, Trump slammed President Biden and the current administration, calling them a failure. Let's hear more for more from President Trump at the RNC. I am running to be president for all of America, not half of America, because there is no victory in winning for half of America. The current administration, we are indeed a nation in decline. What this administration, the damage that this administration has done, and I say it often, if you took the 10 worst presidents in the history of the United States, think of it, the 10 worst, added them up, they will not have done the damage that Biden has done. Yeah, so Trump pushed back against Democrats claiming he was a threat to
Starting point is 00:09:37 democracy saying, I'm the only one saving democracy. Now Trump laid out what the campaign says is his plan for a new golden age for America. He promised to bring down inflation and end what he called the illegal immigration crisis by closing the border. He also reiterated his claim that the wars in Ukraine and Gaza would have never happened under his watch. He spoke about inflation, saying high taxes are fueling the inflation crisis, along with what he calls the new green scam, saying he will end electric vehicle mandates and promised his policies will help the American autoworker and strengthen the military. Again, he's plans to close the border and catch and release policy and finish the building the border wall. He also added that he will reignite drilling in the U.S. and make the country less energy dependent.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Let's hear more from Trump. Drill, baby, drill. We must get economic relief to our citizens. Starting on day one, we will drive down prices and make America affordable again. We have to make it affordable. It's not affordable. And I think everybody, as a Republican,
Starting point is 00:10:44 as a patriot in this room and most Democrats, we want people to come into our country. But they have to come into our country legally. I will end every single international crisis that the current administration has created, including the horrible war with Russia and Ukraine, which would have never happened if I was president. I actually believe him when he says that, though. I mean, just because of how buddy buddy he is with, you know, Putin and, you know, the president of China and the president of North Korea. There's a part of there's a part of me that believes that.
Starting point is 00:11:21 But then there's also a part of me that feels like, you know, he would have he would let countries like Russia have their way you know speaking of um you know uh tough stuff you know he also talked about the assassination attempt on his life um saying that he was only hilarious he was only going to tell the story once because it's too painful let's hear more on his account of what happened on Saturday. There was blood pouring everywhere. And yet, in a certain way, I felt very safe because I had God on my side. I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me really, really hard on my right ear. I said to myself, wow, what was that? It can only be a bullet.
Starting point is 00:12:09 And moved my right hand to my ear, brought it down. My hand was covered with blood. Just absolutely blood all over the place. Did you know that the ear bleeds more than any part of your body yeah that's what that's what doctors told trump that's what trump told america last night that the ear bleeds more than any part of your body more than your organs more than your head yep the ear that's
Starting point is 00:12:38 what y'all know that that's what he said that's what he said and he also he went on to say that uh you know he he's just a special case in that regard that he was able to survive something like that. He went on to honor the victim of the shooting, Corey Comperator, and did say that he spoke to Helen Comperator's wife. He actually kissed the outfit, kissed the outfit that was on stage because they had an outfit. I guess the firefighters actual jacket and hat and uniform. Yes. He actually kissed the uniform when he was on stage because they had a outfit I guess the firefighters actual jacket and hat and uniform. He actually kissed the uniform when he was on stage. He said that the ear, he could have died from that.
Starting point is 00:13:12 He said the ear bleeds more than any part of your body. That's what he said last night. His doctors told him that. And that he lost so much blood but you know again he's an X factor. I thought Trump's first 10 to 15 minutes when he was breaking down
Starting point is 00:13:27 the assassination speech was hilarious. I thought it was... Extremely dramatic. It was so dramatic. I mean, it was an attempted assassination on his life. So yes, that would be a traumatic experience. But just the way he described it...
Starting point is 00:13:44 The drama. Yeah was he he did he hammed it up it was a warm and beautiful sunny day the wind was blowing from the north everybody was so happy we were so we were so happily happily happy to be there that's right yeah but even still like you said it was still an assassination attempt. So I want to on that. Yeah. So we'll talk more. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. So Holyfield could have died when Mike Tyson. Shut up. All right. Yes. Yes. That's right. Yes. Yes. Yes. The rest of his speech was very mid, though. I wasn't impressed. Like I've seen I've I've seen Trump be way more entertaining than that.
Starting point is 00:14:26 I've also seen him be more captivating than that. I wasn't impressed by the rest of the speech. Hulk Hogan was way better. Yeah, maybe a near-death experience will do that to you, though. No, we're not going to do that either now. Because one thing I say, I said this to myself last night. I was like, damn, I want everybody to give each other the grace the media gives Donald Trump. Because in one week, it's like the media has forgotten who Donald Trump is and all of the things that he said.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Okay, yes, I know he said he's not a threat to democracy. But there's a long list that you can pull up on chat GPT if you want to that says otherwise. And I don't understand why the media doesn't reinforce that. Yeah, he can get on stage and say those things, but you still got to remind people of how his actions said otherwise. We'll talk about it next hour.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Morgan, we'll see you in a little bit. Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now.

America ain't voting for an all-woman ticket. You got to go find the whitest white man you can find. You got to go find somebody in the Democratic Party that's MAGA white.
Starting point is 00:17:20 Now, I would like to see Kamala Harris and Josh Shapiro, but I don't think America's ready for that either because, you know, Josh Shapiro is Jewish. But I think that is the most solid ticket. But they got to go find somebody like white, white. What is white, white? You said white, white. What is white? They got to find somebody that's almost capital Riot White in the Democratic Party.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Man. Man. All right. Well, the put wit Kamala. I heard some names. I saw a guy yesterday. What's his name? Mark Kelly. All right, well. The put with Kamala. I heard some names, though. I saw a guy yesterday. What's his name? Mark Kelly.

It's DJ Envy's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get to just with the mess news is real on the breakfast club she's a culture shift she was able to get y'all to see something
Starting point is 00:28:10 and understand something that nobody could get you to see it's time to set it on so Ozzy Osbourne and his family they have a podcast right and so they was doing an episode of it it's called the Osbourne family Podcast. And they were reading through some comments that fans was leaving them. And one of the comments was like, do you ever see your daughter Kelly doing dances on TikTok? And Kelly said, no. Why would anybody ever expect for me to be dancing on there, right? So somehow Britney Spears came up and Ozzy Osbourne said this about her dancing. I don't say I've ever old Britney Spears on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Dancing. Every f***ing day. Safe Britney. I know. You know, it's sad. Poor little thing. Very, very sad. Yeah, very sad indeed.
Starting point is 00:28:56 It's heartbreaking. It is. I don't know how it's heartbreaking to see somebody dance, but I know he sound like, just like Keith Robinson. But Britney Spears shared a post to her instagram addressing the criticism towards her and uh and people in general and she said every single day on my ig number one i hardly ever dance number two i'm not poor at all i have more ligature in my left toe than any grown man or woman on earth if you don't believe
Starting point is 00:29:25 me how long do you think i should keep going for in my transparent opinion wealth and health isn't relied solely on cash in your bank account which i have lots of that too it relies on my quest and my own effing interest in how i demonstrate and serve back these wise a-holes just as kate did i taught dance class last week uh the post was pretty long that's why i just stopped it um but the biggest highlight is when she directly addressed the osborne family she said i'm going to do a photo shoot with kate and tell the osborne family who is the most boring family known to mankind to kindly f off so know, white people get the beef and it's not really that interesting. But I'm tired of people talking about Britney dancing, too.
Starting point is 00:30:10 She's doing something that she like. All right. Maybe her underwear don't ever come all the way up. That's true. But she's happy. She seemed like she's happy when she does it. But also, too, Britney's been around long enough to know because she's an artist. When you put stuff out there, people are going to have a critique about it.
Starting point is 00:30:28 So if you're going to get online and publicly dance you know people can say it looks sad or you know they think she's terrible at dancing they're gonna have critiques right well they've been well you can always unfollow somebody like as you guys want come on because for real like you don't have to watch her dance and people have said this for years and years and years and it's the first time she ever clapped back she never said anything about it you know that's plies girl so he should be coming soon too but no he because he he'd be getting mad when people be in the comments playing with her ripping her to pieces talking about oh it's mental health and all that she just don't i think she's just doing what she like to do white people a lot of white people are kind of awkward like that maybe that's like she looks happy she says well you mean when you
Starting point is 00:31:12 say white people are awkward like they can't dance is that what you're saying yeah i think i think britney has proven throughout the years that she can dance when she has the right choreography you don't remember i'm a slave video what and why are you talking like that you don't remember that video i am a slave yeah i'm a slave i'm a slave for you didn't pharrell produce that yeah he did but she could never come out with that song today it can you know you're right right think about that can you imagine if a white can you imagine if a white woman came out with that song in 2024? Oh, my God.

Now, when we come back, we got front page news, and then Rap Man will be joining us. Of course, he's the creator
Starting point is 00:35:30 of Supercell on Netflix. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Shalameen the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get back to some front page news.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Yeah, so we have breaking news that could impact millions. Microsoft is reporting widespread outages this morning at airlines, airports, banks, and media companies. Hope that doesn't affect us. American Airlines, United, and Delta are asking the FAA for a global ground stop on all flights, according to an alert from the FAA for a global ground stop on all flights, according to an alert from the FAA. Computer outages have been reported in many countries across the globe,
Starting point is 00:36:09 including the airport in Berlin, Germany and the London Stock Exchange, Google Cloud and Gatwick Airport in London. Now, the issue is reportedly tied to a cybersecurity firm named CloudStrike, and they say a defect in a content update for Windows is behind the IT outage that is affecting millions. And they did confirm that the outage is not a cyber attack. So this is a developing story. And I'll keep you guys posted on that. China, China, China, China.
Starting point is 00:36:40 I'm telling you right now, the Republicans have been talking spicy about China all week. And China decided to tap our jaw. This is a little bit of cyber warfare. It's just a little bit just to let them know you need to simmer that down. OK, y'all talking spicy all week. Watch this fake news. OK, no fake news here. OK, and other news on the other side of the aisle.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Democrats report says that Barack Obama is telling his allies President Biden needs to possibly step down. The Washington Post says that former President Obama has told associates Biden's path to victory is significantly shrunk and serious. And he needs to seriously consider the viability of his candidacy. The Post adds that Obama has been working behind the scenes, taking calls from Democrats who feel anxious about Biden's political future, including one with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is said to be one of Biden's closest allies. Now, the Post reports that Pelosi has been talking with Biden's inner circle about low poll numbers. And the New York Times also reported that Biden has begun to accept the idea that he may not be able to win the election in November and may have to drop out of the race. That's the only question that I've been asking for the past year and some change.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Is Biden, the Biden-Harris ticket, a winnable ticket? And if President Obama is saying that he doesn't believe it is, if Nancy Pelosi is saying she doesn't believe it is, if Chuck Suma is saying he doesn't believe it is, then we should believe them. Because we clearly don't believe our own eyes and ears. We haven't believed our own eyes and ears over the last year and a half. So I'm going to believe them. And if Biden drops out, I think it will simply give the party something it doesn't have right now. And that's energy.
Starting point is 00:38:15 But he has to. He has to drop out. I mean, you think about it like this. The people that were behind him show that we're not united, show that we lack trust in him. So it's better that he does it ASAP now because now it's to the point where his own people ain't trusting him. I don't even think
Starting point is 00:38:31 it's a lack of trust that people have. Yeah. I don't even know if it's a lack of trust that people have. People have a lack of trust that he can win.
Starting point is 00:38:40 That's what it is. I don't think anybody has a problem with the job that he's doing. It's the fact that can he win? They don't think anybody has a problem with the job that he's doing it's the fact that can he win they don't think he can win well um uh switching gears a little bit in nfl hall of famer terrell davis he's demanding accountability after being removed from a united airlines flight in handcuffs in front of his family last week according to davis six fbi
Starting point is 00:39:02 and law enforcement officials boarded a plane for what the FBI said was a report of a violent assault. The Denver Broncos legend was traveling from Denver to California with his wife and children. And he says he was he simply tapped the flight attendant on the shoulder after a man failed to acknowledge his son asking for a cup of ice. Davis and his wife talked about the incident. Let's hear more from them. They come right towards me. And at that point, my mind is like, what the heck is going on? I'm in shock that this guy is actually putting handcuffs on me. I was powerless. I couldn't do anything. I would want to know why. Why would you want to ruin a man's life like that? And I don't want him to answer those questions in front of my children.
Starting point is 00:39:49 Like, look them in the eyes and tell them why they tried to harm, destroy their dad. Unfortunately, because of the beautiful color of your skin, your experiences in this world are going to be different. And unfortunately, at 13, 11, and 9, you've had an experience. That's Terrell's wife, Tam tamika she said it was the worst experience of her life and now they're left trying to help their kids process what happened to their dad now a lawyer for davis says united airlines has apologized for the incident but it's not enough um the uh united has apologized to the athlete and said it removed the flight attendant from duty while they closely review this matter of course course, Davis is black, and he feels like race played a part in this role.
Starting point is 00:40:28 He says he was humiliated by the incident. I'm sorry him and his family had to go through that, man. Let's say his name, Eric Garner. He's being remembered on the 10th anniversary of his chokehold death at the hands of a NYPD cop. Garner's mother, Gwen Carr, led a march on Wednesday in Staten Island in honor of her son. She was joined by Garner's daughter and cousin in marching to the site where her son was killed as police were trying to
Starting point is 00:40:52 arrest him for selling Lucy's some cigarettes. Now, former officer Daniel Pantaleo was fired, but he was not charged after authorities said he used a banned chokehold on Garner. A video of Garner's final moments claiming he couldn't breathe went viral and triggered widespread outrage
Starting point is 00:41:12 and calls for accountability within the NYPD and, of course, with police across the nation. So this is one of those things we got to continue to say his name. Eric G Yes. RIP to Eric Garner. Sending his family positive energy, love and light always. Rest in peace to his daughter. You know,
Starting point is 00:41:31 Erica Garner, just the salute to the whole family, man. Sending the whole family healing energy. Always 10 years. Well, 10 years go by like that. Sure.

I appreciate that, man.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Big up, man. Thank you for having me. Man, Rap Man is the creator and director of a Netflix show that had me in a chokehold during vacation called Supercell. From July 8th to July 14th, he was the number one. No, you were the most watched show on Netflix. You spent two weeks at number one. Two weeks at number one.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Yeah, 7.1 million views. How'd that feel, my brother? Hey, no, that felt humbling, man. But it felt good. I ain't gonna lie, I put a big smile on my face. Let's start from the beginning. Who is Rap Man?
Starting point is 00:42:50 Where did Rap Man come from? Because you started off as a rapper. Let's go through the career for people that don't know who Rap Man is. All right, well, I was just like every other guy in South London trying to rap.
Starting point is 00:43:00 But them days, our UK rap scene was... It weren't where it is now. So we're trying to sound like B. We're trying to sound like J and Pac. So we're rapping with an accent them days our uk rap scene was um it weren't where it is now so we're trying to sound like big we're trying to sound like jay and pax so we're rapping with the accent them days and there was another form of music called garage and grime but i love rap so much i was always rapping with the american accent so i've got the nickname rap man from a young age so my thing is though i was the type of person that would love give me the loot on the album expect to see the music video to that but that video will never come out
Starting point is 00:43:25 I would listen to Jay's album Inspector here see the video for a week ago and it will never come out and I was like why do they never do
Starting point is 00:43:31 the music video to the story songs you want videos to everything nah but I like the story songs the other ones that was my thing but they never yeah
Starting point is 00:43:38 but they never the visuals so I said when I start rapping I'm gonna do the visuals to them make them like short films so when I started doing music I started doing these short films. They were like musically narrated short videos, man.
Starting point is 00:43:50 I was doing it for years for fun for people in my neighborhood. And it just started growing and growing and growing until I done one called Cheryl's Story. That went viral all through the UK. Landed in my buddy James Samuel's hands. We would then put it in Jay-Z's hands and Ty Ty's hands. And the next thing you know, I'm meeting Jay-Z and Ty Ty and they signed me they signed me to Roc Nation and they said what you want to do now that you're with us I said you have Roc Nation as a rapper at the time Nah nah nah they saw the vision as a filmmaker. Got you. So I'm with them as a filmmaker
Starting point is 00:44:17 So they said what you want to do? I've got a TV show man. I got an idea for a TV show They're like cool pitch. It wasn't Supercell. It was another show So they took me out to LA and they pitched i pitched it everywhere every studio you can think of fx hulu amazon no one wanted it but netflix said yeah we love it but because they're set in the uk you gotta go back to the uk and pitch it down there so i went back to the uk pitch the show she didn't want it but she said she's a big fan let's keep in touch that's like that didn't mean that to me i thought okay i felt it didn't work so anyway i moved on with my life and i wrote a movie called blue story done really well um in the uk but before it came out there was a big
Starting point is 00:44:54 marketing campaign campaign on it so netflix said look we want to take you out i'm like yo i'm gonna rinse this i picked the most expensive restaurant i could find and i went there and i was just eating that free food man and in between the, they told me it was a general. So I'm just there eating. But they kept on asking me questions like, what do you want to do next? I was like, I don't know. I want to see what the film does. But have you got any ideas for a show?
Starting point is 00:45:12 I was like, I've got one idea. And who is this with? Netflix or Ragnation? This is Netflix. OK, OK, OK. So I gave them some idea. And they said, oh, that's all right. And I said, have you got anything else?
Starting point is 00:45:22 I was like, right, this is one of those meetings. I thought I just came to eat a food and a ketchup. So with the food still in my mouth, I said, look, I've got this idea about people from my part of London, South London, and they get powers. It ain't like you're Capes, Spandex. These people are going for real things. And they went quiet. And I looked up.
Starting point is 00:45:38 It looked like ka-ching. It's like there was dollar signs in their eyes. So I said, OK, so you look like that one. And they just wanted me to develop it from there. And then fast forward four years. I don't believe that. You're not going to make me
Starting point is 00:45:49 believe that you sat down with somebody and told them you wanted to make an all black show with people with sickle cell superpowers and it's science fiction. Bro.
Starting point is 00:45:57 And they got it. I don't think anyone else would have made it. It might have helped that the head of UK Netflix does look like me and you. Okay, okay. That might have helped. But head of UK Netflix does look like me and you okay okay that might have helped
Starting point is 00:46:07 but I think it was such a complaint that the UK's never had anything like it so it was just like it could really go left or this could really work and I think she was ready
Starting point is 00:46:16 to take that chance man now I don't want to give too much away from Supercell but I do got a lot of questions because I really did enjoy this show you know what was so crazy
Starting point is 00:46:24 my wife turned it on and like we was on vacation so I'm laying in bed my wife goes oh look at Cuffy and so I open my eyes and I go oh that's Cuffy I said Cuffy's on this show so that's what that's what really made me start watching that's good definitely have to be got Cuffy on that that's nice yeah she she reached out years ago and just said she wants to work with me and I said obviously she's not an actress, but I said, I might have something for you. And she came off the plane from where she was out of the country just to do that scene.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Man, you know what's so funny? I text her, right? And I go, yo, I said, we sitting there. We on vacation. We watching this show. I just saw you on it. And she texts back. And she was like, oh, that's love.
Starting point is 00:46:59 She was like, man, Rap Man is amazing. And I'm like, that's not the name of the show. Like, name of the show is Superstar. So when the show's over, then it, Rap Man is amazing. And I'm like, that's not the name of the show. Like, name of the show is Supercell. And so when the show's over, then it goes Rap Man. I'm like, oh, okay, he made the show. But where did the concept of Supercell come from? Because I read in The Hollywood Reporter, the death of George Floyd was...

On July 8th, 1992, apartment buildings with pools were never quite the same as Melrose Place was introduced to the world. It took drama and mayhem to an entirely new level. We are going to be reliving every hookup, every scandal, every backstab, blackmail and explosion, and every single wig removal together. Secrets are revealed as we rewatch every moment with you. Special guests from back in the day will be dropping by. You know who they are.
Starting point is 00:51:57 Sydney, Allison, and Joe are back together on Still the Place with a trip down memory lane and back to Melrose Place. So listen to Still the Place on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. An inspiration. Yeah, so it was 2020 when the pandemic just kicked in and George Floyd got murdered,
Starting point is 00:52:23 obviously, as you know. And obviously, you know how it felt over here, obviously but that user weren't alone in that feeling in the uk and probably the rest of the world we just felt like it's just one step too far now it's just too much and a lot of people like artists and prayers were going into central london to protest people protest and i was like is this the best way i can use what my platform to make this to uplift black people because it was just a sad time in london at that time like and i didn't know how long tv takes i figured you know what if
Starting point is 00:52:49 i write this tv show nah it could probably be out by the end of the year and you know blacks will feel like we're superpowers so that's when i started writing it so i started writing it started writing it for motivated by george floyd and then i wanted a superpower that came from something real and sickle cell to me was always something I never understood that what like why is there a disease that genuinely puts dark skin tones in a weak position of weakness I never understood that I said nah man I need to spin this on his head because another thing you walk into a room with 10 people and if you ask them about sickle cell if more than three people put their hand up you're in a great room because most people
Starting point is 00:53:22 don't know nothing about it and And that's even our own community. They will pretend like they do, but a lot of people don't know nothing about it. I said, how can I make this a thing of power? How can I raise awareness?
Starting point is 00:53:31 And I was thinking, you know what, if there's something that can make us weak, there must be something that can make us strong. And as a parent, if I was having
Starting point is 00:53:39 to live with sickle cell, that would make me weak and tired and hurt and pain, but it would make my kid extraordinary, I'll take that deal. Why sickle cell in particular make me weak and tired and hurt and pain but it'll make my kid extraordinary i'll take that deal why sickle cell in particular though like what i knew i knew one girl and every time that she wouldn't come into college and i was like why are you never turning up why are you never turning up she's like oh i got sick or so and she was all every two weeks she'll be in hospital
Starting point is 00:53:59 and she showed me like a whole bag of her blood transfusion this was like a massive massive you said you're taking this amount of blood every two weeks and it was crazy to me and i ended up going down the rabbit hole about it trying to figure out where it came from and there's no real answers but it was the only fact is it predominantly affects darker skin i was like nah if someone ain't gonna give me answers we're gonna have to get people talking man so it always stuck in the back of my head so as soon as i've got the opportunity I just opened the door on it, man. You a hip-hop head, so it's like all of us first, well, I'm not going to say first heard of Sick of Cell,
Starting point is 00:54:30 but Prodigy and T-Boz, TLC. I was going to say Prodigy was the first one that made me look into it was when I heard Prodigy had it. First time I ever heard it was when Pac said, ain't one of y'all got Sick of Cell? I was Sick of Cell. That's the first time I ever heard the word. And then I started realizing that T-Buzz had it.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Alright, we got more with Rap Man when we come back. He is the creator of Supercell. That's the series on Netflix. We're going to talk to him some more when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Rap Man, the creator of Supercell, the series on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:55:05 And I was watching you on the Winners Talking podcast. And you was talking about how sometimes, especially when they do films in London, it doesn't translate to the US and you really wanted something to translate to the US. Why was that so important to you? It's the biggest playing field. I love the UK.
Starting point is 00:55:21 I'm a super proud Londoner, but you know, you're not really, you can't really fly if you're only doing it in the smallest stage, you know. And US is the biggest stage, you know. So I'm thinking if I can get it to connect outside of the UK and the US, I can keep on telling stories, you know. And I didn't water it down. So the slang's harsh. I didn't try to make it feasible for your ears. I kind of wanted you to learn the language.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Like when I used to watch The Wire, I learned their language. So I didn't want to worry that even though I think Netflix was thinking they were going to get it. I was like, I hope.
Starting point is 00:55:52 So that's why I was worried because it wasn't, I didn't even try to make it appealing to the States. Like I could have given all the gang members guns all the time. Like how it,
Starting point is 00:56:00 but I was like, it's not really like that. Let me just do it exactly how it is and hope that they learn. So yeah, man, I feel like I want to fly in, I want to do it Exactly how it is And hope that they learn So yeah man I feel like I want to fly
Starting point is 00:56:07 I want to swim In the biggest pond in it That's what I love about it Right Because you know I want to know your world I know the street world Over here
Starting point is 00:56:14 It's the same reason I like Top Boy I wanted to ask you About something like Top Boy It was a great show But it didn't really get success Until later So why do you think
Starting point is 00:56:21 Supercell popped off so fast I think Top Boy done well. I think it's the reason. I think it was just, I think it's because of Top Boy, Supercell done well. I think by the time
Starting point is 00:56:29 you've seen Top Boy, you understand our language a bit more, our dialect. And you know, you see our artists coming through, artists like Central C.
Starting point is 00:56:36 I think the culture from the UK is starting to seep in a bit more. It's starting to blend in. So the time Supercell comes out, you're used to the voice a bit more,
Starting point is 00:56:44 the accent. And I think it was just timing, man. You know, I believe everything's timing in life. And I thought this was the perfect time. Now, I definitely, I love the concept.
Starting point is 00:56:51 So you basically came up with the concept eating. So it wasn't something that you pre-thought. This was like, you're just eating and shitting and you're just going to throw shits on the walls
Starting point is 00:56:58 and see what sticks. No, no, no. It wasn't that deep. Before that conversation with Netflix, I was doing promotion for my for my movie and one of the cast members asked me on camera what you're gonna do next you're just
Starting point is 00:57:09 gonna keep on doing the hood stuff i said yeah maybe but i want to flip on this head and do it about people with powers and um that's the first time i ever spoke here i had no concept of where it would be so it's stuck in my head so when netflix asked me like a month later it was just still there and i just gave to them what i said to them, and they actually could make it. Someone asking me, who's your friend? It's like, you're asking me, nah, that's dope. But someone who actually does that for the living, presses the green button on a TV show, asked me.
Starting point is 00:57:34 I was probably a bit more eloquent with how I was delivering it, and it just sold, man. The dope thing about it is the investment that they put, right? Because it's not like a movie that, okay, you just film in London and go. You got special effects. You got people doing their own stunts. And you got great. Talk about some of that.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Because I've seen some of that behind the scenes footage of all the stuff that it took to make the movie. And to make the flick. Yeah. You know what? And for London, that was a big budget show. Like, it's not. Don't get me wrong. There ain't no Game of Thrones budget.
Starting point is 00:58:01 But for the UK, they don't normally put that type of money in shows. Especially when the cast looks like that. So that's what I've got to do. Especially when it's a black cast. Exactly what I'm saying. So I think, I remember saying to them, if I'm going to do this, you have to let me do it right. Let me just swing as high as I can with this,
Starting point is 00:58:16 as hard as I can, and let me just try with it. Don't give me the half budget on it. Give me enough where I can at least do it. And I think when she made the decision to do it, she just agreed. she just agreed she said cool whatever it is do what you want to do with it let's just see what happens yeah I don't want to do spoilers but when I think about Michael and how he kept trying to change the future do you believe that your fate is already set I don't want to get too much but do you believe your fate is already set yeah and if you've seen it to the end and you've seen how it ends and I and that's the reason why I feel like it ends like that I feel
Starting point is 00:58:43 like no matter what you might be able to, I don't want to say too much, but I do believe that, yeah. To answer your question, to make without spoiling it, I think the answer is yes, I do believe that what's meant to be will be,
Starting point is 00:58:54 but I still feel like you have to push for the direction you want to go. Like, I believe one day I'll be sitting here with people like yourself and doing what I'm doing with Netflix,
Starting point is 00:59:03 but it wouldn't have been if I decided just to hang on the block with my people and not stay into writing and not go here to learn. So I feel like you have to go 70% of the way, at least. Hold on, you said the end now. You got to have these seasons mapped out, right? Because it can't end the way it ends. Nah, I've got a three-season story in my head.
Starting point is 00:59:21 Okay. Yeah, so I've got a three-season story in my head. I'm not saying it can't go further, but I've got three seasons where I know where it goes. Because I need to know why this is happening. Why are these people getting snatched up? I'm trying not to give it away. I'm just trying to figure out what's the overall goal.
Starting point is 00:59:37 If Netflix pressed the button on it, I will promise you all your questions will be answered. Now, one time there was a conversation about British actors taking over in the US, and some of the US actors were upset. Idris El elba damson idris just some of the actors from brandon so so what is your thoughts on that and and would you use american actors 100 i would use american actors if they fit the role and i don't think people should be mad at the uk we grew up with nothing on tv screens except for american accent tv shows and movie so all we took in was your accent that's why we can do it.
Starting point is 01:00:06 So when we get these roles, and they study acting a lot in the UK, I don't say they don't do it in the US, but it's a big thing in the UK to go to drama school. Like you have to do your three years and then your master's. So the actors can come over, like Idris and Damson and all these other actors
Starting point is 01:00:19 can come over and do this because they can. But bro, I was chatting to someone the other day. She was doing, an American girl, she was doing the UK accent just on watching Top Boy and Supercell. So I was saying 10 years from now, maybe five, they're going to be coming to steal our jobs. You know, we're just a bit ahead
Starting point is 01:00:36 because we've had you on our screen for longer. Give it 10 more years, 10 more seasons of Supercell, you're going to be having people coming to take our jobs, man. I go from, that's my 11-year-old's thing. My 11-year-old's mastered the London accent. And every time she orders something from Uber Eats
Starting point is 01:00:49 or somebody picks up, she uses that accent. And she thinks she's from London, like a thousand percent. Her name is London, which is funny. That's sick. Bro, and I think
Starting point is 01:00:56 it's starting to happen. So you're doing it, first of all, as a joke. But imagine if you actually are, your little one wants to act. If your little one comes in and can kill the accent And I'm giving her the role
Starting point is 01:01:06 I don't care if she lives over here Or she lives over there I want the best person For this role So it's gonna happen You know another connection People don't usually make Is the connection
Starting point is 01:01:15 At least I see Between London and like Nigeria It's a massive deal I'm Nigerian A lot of it is like For my parents The minute
Starting point is 01:01:23 Over there The better life is in the UK So you had a lot of people go to America but a lot of Nigerians live in London you know so and it's just because my mom and dad would just tell me that you know they're my grandparents would tell them if you get well go to London and you can have a better life for your family so in the in the UK Caribbean, Africa is that's where we're predominantly most of the way the blacks are from what was a better storytelling outlet for you music or TV TV and I'll tell you why I would in the fact that you know rapping is such a super skill and I feel like I was okay but I wasn't
Starting point is 01:01:57 Jay-Z or Biggie and it's funny these days I don't even think you have to be there no more you just need a you just need a flipping flipping gimmick or hook or angle. But the thing that I can do with TV and film, I've got a bigger platform. I've got a bigger canvas to paint. Like when I was trying to do a song in five minutes, it was just like, I've got so much more details I want to say about the story or the character.
Starting point is 01:02:19 When I get a canvas like film and TV, I can stretch it out, make you feel emotion, get you connected to the character. So for me, I'm where I'm film and TV, I can stretch it out, make you feel emotion, get you connected to the character. So for me, I'm where I'm meant to be, man. I'm happy here, and I just want to keep on painting these big canvases. All right, well, don't move. We got more with Ratman when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with the creator of Supercell, Ratman. Charlamagne? Another thing about this show, and I know there's probably some symbolism in this, all of the main characters' superpowers, they come out when they seem like they're under extreme stress
Starting point is 01:02:52 or when they're all near each other. Yes. So the thing I get from that is black people, we definitely perform well under pressure. We make the best out of the worst situations. And unity and group operation, I think, brings out the best in us as well i agree with that and my main thing was literally with the pressure thing i feel like we only ever do become our best version when we get to that peak where we think well it's that line it's how you're going to fall under but if you go over that's when the greatness comes and i think that's why when it's kind of sink or swim you know fight or flight
Starting point is 01:03:23 what they say that's when it comes out that's why if it's kind of sink or swim, you know, fight or flight, what they say, that's when it comes out. That's why if you see everyone in there, when they're at their last string and then boom, that's when it happens. I was going to say congratulations to you. I've been wanting to ask you stuff, but then I'm like, am I going to give it away? You can't give it away yet. But you know what? It's been three, four weeks. It is. I've been listening to it more and more now.
Starting point is 01:03:39 I haven't seen the whole thing. So people are hearing more and more about it now. Yeah, that's true. It's true. Because I caught on when I heard somebody else be like, yo, you got to watch it. I'm like, ah, I'll watch it. I appreciate it.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Because some of the international movies, I'm like, am I going to be cool with the accent at first? And they're like, nah, you can get it. You know what I mean? Nah, nah, that's fair enough. That's fair enough. And it's true. We do want it to carry on.
Starting point is 01:03:54 A good thing with shows like this, there's like a 90-day window to get into the top views of all time. And I don't know if we're heading for that or not, because you need to get like 90 million views. We're on like 25, which is crazy for a UK show, but basically they Netflix do money over three four months So it's not like it's not like a music release an album You've got like a the first opening week to really decide if it's a hit or not It don't work like that Netflix
Starting point is 01:04:17 So I don't want to spoil too much but enough to get people to want to watch there's people with the supercell Collecting other people with the supercell collecting other people with the supercell, right? Yes. But they're collecting them on behalf of white people. Yep.
Starting point is 01:04:31 I knew that you could look at that. It's funny, I saw Big Up Vince Staple, I never, I don't met him, but I never met him but I saw him tweet,
Starting point is 01:04:38 yo, those super coons had me shocked. That was crazy. I was laughing out loud, like, I couldn't believe it. But you know what,
Starting point is 01:04:44 I literally was laughing out loud when I saw that believe it. But you know what the thing is? I literally was laughing out loud when I saw that tweet. But the thing with that, it's funny because I've only ever been asked about this in one other interview. We are the talent. We are the culture. We are the heart. We bring the energy.
Starting point is 01:04:56 We bring the vibe. But do we not dance for the people, for the other side? And it's just, you can't escape it. I don't know if it's because where we are based we are not the majority that's right but where we are and where we are shining no matter how great
Starting point is 01:05:10 we are like I don't want to start blowing everything up but yous up should really do yous up own this place do yous up own you know what I'm saying like you
Starting point is 01:05:17 when I think of this I think of you guys yous up have the power but I don't know how much power you got but I'm assuming there's always someone on top who
Starting point is 01:05:24 sure man you can't do that or Envy that's a How much power you got But I'm assuming There's always someone on top Who You can't do that Or envy That's a bit much We haven't gotten that In 14 years Then you're a G A lot of people Ain't got there
Starting point is 01:05:31 We've been lucky We haven't How much other people Do you know Who is just as famous Or as successful as you Who has still Got a ask upstairs
Starting point is 01:05:38 And I've carved out My own entity here Called the Black Effect Podcast Network Oh you should let me Come on that Then we can really Chop it up I would love to do A Supercell podcast out my own entity here called the black effect podcast network oh she let me come on that let's talk then we can really chop it up i would love to do a um supercell podcast bro like when you
Starting point is 01:05:50 break in like you're breaking down each episode for all the people i would love that when you're ready bro we can really go off on that lap that's done yeah yeah let's do that let's do that let's do that let's do that let's do that yeah no's do that. Let's do that. Let's do that. Yeah, go. Now, congratulations. You got a 100% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes. That ain't easy. That was just not easy. We just seen with Tyler Perry, his didn't do as well. So the fact that you got 100% is great. But I was going to ask, it took four years to do this one.
Starting point is 01:06:17 So when season two, is it going to be another four years? Nah. And it won't because a lot of that is breaking the world, getting the characters right. Because you know the world, you know the characters, it won't because a lot of that is breaking the world getting the characters right because the world you know the world you know the characters it won't take as long how long it will take
Starting point is 01:06:29 it just depends on how soon they press the button it won't take as long it won't take as long this is so ill though because I thought I was going to talk to you and you was going to tell me
Starting point is 01:06:37 like your mother your grandmother or somebody you know just the fact that you you know care about it because it impacts so many black people bro how can there be Something that only
Starting point is 01:06:45 Affects you because Of your black Bro isn't that crazy That is like I feel like we need To ask more questions Like why is no one Asking where did this
Starting point is 01:06:52 Come from Why is no one Asking why Bro skin is skin Don't get Because the culture Comes with how you're raised But how dark your skin is
Starting point is 01:06:59 And how light your skin is Shouldn't make a difference To a disease I guess I've never done The knowledge to it To even know that I never even thought that sickle cell was just a black disease they say it predominantly affects black and there is some other races but i personally have never met someone that's not black with it so i'm not so but i never understood it so i'm hoping now the conversation is out there maybe people might do some proper research on it and they find out
Starting point is 01:07:24 what the answer is more how can we bring more awareness to the disease you think with what you're doing right now is already doing it there's sickle cell conventions pretty often i think just mention it like that's the thing everyone does talk about have a conversation maybe get someone who's living with it on the show like there's a lot of people in powwow or whatever who are living with this i just think we've definitely had Prodigy and T-Ball on over the years the conversation just don't happen enough
Starting point is 01:07:49 like it's funny that episode of Power came out and they mentioned it this week and I thought that's weird right close to Supercell
Starting point is 01:07:54 the conversation of Sick of Cell was out on two popular shows but normally no one talks about it man like when I was doing this show
Starting point is 01:07:59 in the UK all of their execs had to do the research minus my main exec whose brother's got it but everybody else they had to do the research. No one knew what they was making, you know So I'm I just didn't keep the conversation going man. Like no blood drives It's that someone like you use yourself turn up to blood drives. That would be crazy, you know, just shining light man I have a few questions
Starting point is 01:08:18 But like one question I had for you is you said that the exec at Netflix knew you in the UK So what level of rapper were you in the uk like who was comparable to you oh okay i wasn't known because i was like okay the biggest rapper in the uk right now he's obviously central c right yeah but central c at that time wasn't wasn't in crust over it was probably storm, love this yeah yeah yeah so but Shiro's story what I've done it was this particular project that was massive it was the biggest thing in the UK for years and this is not sounding like I'm glowing it was just it had the whole world in the UK in a chokehold everyone's waiting for the next part because I was releasing parts like every other month so
Starting point is 01:09:03 everybody was waiting so because I this is a quick example before i get pulled out there was a show called the bodyguard that was on bbc it came on netflix after a while but it was massive in the uk and it was bbc's biggest show for years and it was like their finale okay so their finale was trending on twitter in the uk but i didn't know about bodyguard so i released my final part of shine with story the same day we trended above that so all the breakfast shows the daytime shows the next day was like so you was probably watching this and it was a clip of the bodyguard all that cast good show great show but your kids were watching this and it was a clip of shirel's story that had every single network in the uk netflix everyone black who is this guy who can do something Off their own back No money Pull it on YouTube
Starting point is 01:09:45 And trend above The biggest show That the UK's got It opened every door bro It was like a blessing That thing there Because it fell into So much people's hands
Starting point is 01:09:53 Which and then That's how I was massive So because of Shirewell's story Before Shirewell's story Hardly nobody knew me Coming to Shirewell's story I was probably
Starting point is 01:10:00 One of the hottest in the UK So if In the UK I could have been Maybe Sean Wale With Hot in the Neck I mean I could have UK So if In the UK I could have been Maybe Sean Wale With Hot in the Neck Hole
Starting point is 01:10:06 I mean I could have been Cole at that time Really I could have been Cole at that time So you were the big three At that time
Starting point is 01:10:11 At that time Okay At that time I was at that I'm not gonna sit here And say I was But for that moment While Shire was there
Starting point is 01:10:21 Was out Everyone Everyone So all the All the other rappers Was reaching out. Everybody reached out. It was just a big deal, man. It was just a big deal at the time.
Starting point is 01:10:29 Congratulations on everything, man. Thank you, man. I appreciate it.

Starting point is 01:17:29 but it was like random people shouting it out to her and everything. And she didn't really seem too bothered by it, but she never directly acknowledged any of the people that screamed Tori. She just kind of made a face like a gag face, like whatever. Why would you be yelling that to megan megan uh wants tori in jail you should go down to the prison go down to the prison that tori in and stand out there and scream free tori go protest out there remember remember in his she said write him a letter or something she said schedule a visit schedule a conjugal visit that was one of
Starting point is 01:18:00 the funniest lines from his um the only visible only visible reaction she had was putting her hand to our mouth, like I said, acting like she was throwing up because she was so disgusted. I would get disgusted by hands to buy a name that shot me, too. Meg's foundation helps elderly in better news for her. Meg Thee Stallion's Pete and Thomas Foundation is collaborating with Breath of Life Incorporated to launch the Emergency Power Program. The power program aims to provide generators to senior citizens across Houston. The goal is to ensure that they have access to electricity during natural disasters. That's dope. The collaboration was inspired by the citywide power outages in Houston after Hurricane Beryl.

I don't even know how you can sit down and try to do a top 25 R&B list. It's too deep, too many decades. But if you talk about from my personal taste, I got Jill top three. It's Erica, Jill, and Mary J. Blige for me.
Starting point is 01:23:14 There you go. That's what I was saying. They don't got Usher up there? Yeah, they do. He number eight. He's after SZA and Frank Ocean. But where's Marvin Gaye? Where's Stevie Wonder?
Starting point is 01:23:25 Where's Patti LaBelle? Where's the Isley Brothers? That's what I'm saying. I don't even know why somebody would even sit down and attempt to try to make a top 25 R&B list. It's too much. This is jokes. Anita Baker's number 14. John Legend, whom I love, is number 15.

Starting point is 01:24:45 This list is kind of trash. Kind of trash? It is trash. And it's not because of who's on it. It's just that R&B is just too deep. I don't even know how you could even sit down and begin to do a top 25 R&B. No. No, it's trash because of who's on it and who's not on it.
Starting point is 01:25:01 Absolutely, positively. Absolutely. And you would have to have like 70-year-old, 80-year-old people in the room along with some, you know, you'd have 20-somethings. Like every demographic would have to be represented, put together a proper list, and you still wouldn't get it right.
Starting point is 01:25:17 Instead of all time, though. Ain't no Marvin Gaye on here. No Marvin Gaye. Jill's got number 11. They got Al Green, but no Marvin Gaye. Cut it out. Cut it out. Well, that's just the mess.
Starting point is 01:25:30 All right. We're dropping the clues, Bonferrero, Cabadoo, though. Yeah. Okay. All right. I'm never going to dispute that at number one. All right. Well, Charlamagne, who you giving me a donkey to?
Starting point is 01:25:39 Man, four after the hour, we got another dummy who decided to post something on social media to help the police. His name is Hassan something. He needs to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. Alright, we'll get to that next. And then Angela Simmons will be joining us. You got some Mary? Thank you. Let's play some Mary right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on, let's go. You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:26:00 He up the DJ? Maybe. Damn, the hee-haw, dude. It's time for Donkey at the Jiggy. Damn, the hee-haw, dude. It's time for Donkey of the Day. I ain't trying to be Donkey of the Day no more. They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making these people do these things. Called Donkey of the Day, and it really caught me off guard.
Starting point is 01:26:17 Damn, Solomon, who got the donkey of the day today? Well, Donkey of the Day for Friday, July 19th goes to Hassan Flo. He is a North Carolina man who has helped put himself in prison. What do you mean, Uncle Charlotte? He helped put himself in prison. Well, let me tell you, this 23 year old Charlotte, North Carolina man committed to armed robberies in 2023. He robbed a Sam's Mart in Charlotte. He had the lower part of his face concealed by a red bandana.
Starting point is 01:26:46 He's clearly watched too many movies and rap videos. And of course, he was armed with a pistol. Then he when he entered the Sam's Mart, he put the pistol to the employee and told her, shut up, I'll shoot you. He also told the employee that he just got out of prison. I don't need your backstory, sir. OK, you telling me that you just got out of prison does nothing to make this situation any less traumatic for me. And right you telling me that you just got out of prison does nothing to make this situation any less traumatic for me and if you tell me that you just got out of prison while you robbing me in my mind i'm thinking well i can't wait for you to go back okay he got all the money out the register probably 173 dollars and then he bounced so the next month he was back
Starting point is 01:27:20 at it this time he hit a 7-11. OK, he wore the same red bandana. You didn't even switch it up. OK, didn't even switch it up. Same red bandana, same outfit. Might be a blood. OK, he might be a blood and not allowed to wear any other color. I don't know, because there is no way you repeat in outfits to commit robberies. That's just lazy. I can understand if it's a robbery in the same day, but this robbery was a month later. So he had the same part of his face covered and the same pistol he used in the previous robbery once again he told the employee of 7-eleven to give him the money out the register but the employees fight or flight instincts kicked in and they flew okay that employee ran right out the back door after seeing the gun dropping the clues bombs to that employee i'm not mad at him okay because you just
Starting point is 01:28:05 never know so now hassan's stuck all right he's stuck so he goes behind the counter tries to open the register himself his big dumb ass didn't know how to open the register so when he couldn't get the money out the register he just took the employee's purse okay yes the employee who ran out the back door she left her purse behind. So he just took that boy. What makes you think she got any money? Okay. You could have left her purse right there. She working at the seven 11. You trying to rob. It's only $83 in the register and probably 13 in her purse, 23 at the most. So you just running around Charlotte, wasting time when you could be using that energy to go look for a damn job. OK, you a 23 year old able bodied man who just got got out of prison.
Starting point is 01:28:49 There is plenty of black jobs you could find. And furthermore, I have a serious question. How come you individuals like Hassan just don't become police officers, become detectives, private investigators? Because clearly you like putting away criminals. And I appreciate self-aware people. And there is nothing more self-aware than knowing you have indeed committed a crime. OK, and want to be caught. That's the only explanation for situations like this. You must have wanted to turn yourself in. And the FBI and divisions of law enforcement, thank you for your service and for making their jobs easier because police were able to find Hassan
Starting point is 01:29:26 Flo a week later after he showed himself on social media holding the same pistol wearing the same red bandana he used in the robbery and attempted robbery. You can't make this kind of stuff up. When police arrested him, they found the same
Starting point is 01:29:42 gun that he used in the robbery. Cops don't even have investigators anymore because y'all do the work for them okay imagine if at the end of power tarik put up a post like just took my dad out he a ghost for real now in today's world regular internet trolls on hollywood unlock can find your location just by looking at the trees in the background so why would you think trained professional law and law enforcement officials cannot they didn't watch the surveillance video of of all of these robberies these two attempted robberies and then you're gonna post on social media with the same outfit same bandana and same gun you think they're not
Starting point is 01:30:21 gonna be like that's the guy you know if he would have robbed these stores and got some real money out of them, he'd have been online flashing that cash. Since he didn't get no real money, he decided to go online and show off his robbery outfit and the accessory gun that comes with it. He wanted to be Angela Simmons so bad, showing off your little pistol like it's a purse. Now you're not coming home until you're 36 because, yes, Hassan was sentenced to 117 months, over nine years in prison, nine years of your life gone because you want to rob convenience stores. I promise you, okay, all the time and gas money Hassan wasted going to rob Sam's and 7-Eleven.
Starting point is 01:30:59 He could have easily walked into Sam's Mart and 7-Eleven and filled out a job application. Okay, there's another timeline where instead of you getting dressed wearing the same outfit to go rob these places, you got dressed and wore the same outfit to go try to get a job at these places. But no, you opted to commit a crime, didn't get online, and
Starting point is 01:31:18 tell the world you did said crime. And now you gotta go to prison where you might get some bananas put in your fruit salad. This not even dry snitching anymore. This snitching is soaking wet. And to be wearing the same outfit and the picture that you wore during the robbery. Do you understand there are people that won't post a picture of themselves because they were already seen wearing that outfit before? I repeat clothes all the time.
Starting point is 01:31:41 And personally, if it's a shirt or a fit I want to promote, I'll keep wearing it until my dumb ass remembers to take a picture in it. Maybe Hasan felt the same way. The only difference between myself and Hasan is that Hasan repeating outfits
Starting point is 01:31:54 like he's a Simpson while he committed crimes has his ass in prison. Please give Hasan flow the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh now you are the donkey of the day he got a boyfriend in prison that's that's really the only logical explanation he had to get back to bay oh he had to get back okay. He had to get back to Bay.
Starting point is 01:32:25 Oh, he had to get back. Okay. He had to get back to Bay. He's missing somebody. He's missing somebody. That's the only explanation. That's why he posted the picture of him in the same outfits, just to let Bay know, I'm coming home. Now he wanted to be Angela Simmons so bad.
Starting point is 01:32:40 Yo, you're a clown. Well, thank you for that donkey today. And up next is Angela Simmons. That's right. And we're going to kick it with her next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. He did. Well, thank you for that donkey today. And up next is Angela Simmons. That's right. And we're going to kick it with her next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

Starting point is 01:33:22 I don't know. I have no idea why that was. I thought it was nice. Thank you. The internet is just weird. It's a weird place. It's Oreos in a tub of Oreos, though. Why? I don't know. I have no idea why that was. I thought it was nice. Thank you. The internet is just weird. It's a weird place. It's Oreos. First of all, how are you? I'm great. How are you? I am blessed, black, and highly favored. The only person that should have been mad was your daddy, though. Did he get upset
Starting point is 01:33:36 because you stole his whole tub floor? Never. Never. My dad is my biggest supporter. But you brought some Oreos. The reason I'm jumping right into it is because they're still warm right now. You gotta try. Right here. Okay, tell me about these first of all now because they're you brought some Oreos. The reason I'm jumping right into it is because they're still warm right now. You got to try. Right here. Okay, tell me about these first of all now because they're plant-based Oreos. How?
Starting point is 01:33:49 So, Oreos are vegan. Okay. And we have a mix that's vegan and that's our batter. So, there you go. How do Oreos... Since when are Oreos vegan? Break it down for me. So, Oreos have always been vegan.
Starting point is 01:34:00 Really? Yeah. But don't they have cream? Even the cream is vegan. The whole thing is vegan. I never knew that. Yes. I learned that when i became vegan i was like oh cool are you okay so you are actually vegan yeah how long have you been vegan well i was vegetarian first vegan it had to be over 15 16 years long wow and what got you into being a vegetarian and vegan my uncle started a long
Starting point is 01:34:22 time ago when i was really really young showed. Showed me some videos of some animals and I was like, I had to be like 12 I want to say. And then I was like, I'm not going to eat no more. And I was like, I can't do that. And then I became vegan when I moved to LA. Did he push it on you? No, really? He was like, look at these videos. And I was like, oh, I feel bad for the animals.
Starting point is 01:34:40 And then I like became, that's kind of how it started. You didn't do it cold turkey. No, I didn't. I waited until I got into health and fitness and then I changed it up. Okay. Now, how did you hook up with Pinky? Because you and Pinky hooked up with Slutty Vegan to, I guess you sell these at her restaurant or her spot. So how did y'all hook up?
Starting point is 01:34:55 So Pinky and I have known each other for quite some time. We sat down, we talked, we had this idea on this, this whole idea with this business. And then that was really it. We, that was history from there. And then we just launched right now, as you know, in Slutty Vegan in Harlem, Brooklyn, and all the locations. And talk to us about Angela's Cakes. And how does your daddy feel about this name?
Starting point is 01:35:14 He's fine with it. Where's everybody? Daddy? Got it. You got to make sure everybody got the approval. I got the approval. I got the approval. He likes it.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Yeah, he's supportive as well. But yeah, I'm vegan. We came up with the approval. I got the approval. He likes it. Yeah, he's supportive as well. But yeah, I'm vegan. We came up with the mix. We actually really sat in the kitchen and figured out the ingredients, did it. We didn't just find it. We did it. I have a lot of footage of that too. It says made in a facility that also produces.
Starting point is 01:35:40 Oh, okay. Never mind. Copacker. You reading the Copacker stuff? Yeah, I was just reading. I like to read the ingredients because I really don't know the difference between what's vegan and what's not vegan. So, there's no, like, dairy. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:35:51 So, there's no milk. There's no eggs. It's strictly vegan. Like, you use, like, oat milk and vegan butter. One thing I love about you, Angela, is that throughout your whole career we've seen you, it's like you're always trying to redefine yourself or reinvent yourself was that intentional because you didn't want to just get boxed into the reality tv not really i just do what i like to do what i love to do and like i stick to it so to me like
Starting point is 01:36:14 when i have a passion for something i just go for it i don't really allow anyone else to define that so that's what i do do you have a deal with oreos because i know uh when you posted the picture in the tub with all the Oreos, people were going at you, oh my gosh, but then Oreos left the messages like we love it. So I was like,
Starting point is 01:36:29 I wonder if she has a deal with Oreos. No, I don't currently have one. Not yet? No. Because they said they had a crush on Angela Samuelsson. I like that. They should have a crush.
Starting point is 01:36:36 It's good. I just don't understand why people got upset at that picture. It's weird. It's strange. I don't know. Are you and Kiki Palmer,
Starting point is 01:36:43 like y'all real tight in real life because she came to your defense? I've known her actually for some time too. She's strange. I don't know. Are you and Kiki Palmer, like, y'all real tight in real life? Because she came to your defense. I've known her, actually, for some time, too.

Starting point is 01:42:23 they really gonna hate her. They are really gonna hate her if she start doing anything with me. No. We can make a skit up. What we doing? And even the bag at the BET Awards. You had the gun bag.
Starting point is 01:42:33 People were mad about that. But that was considered fashion. Most people do that all the time. Yeah, I mean, for me... But you apologized for that one. Why? Yeah, well, I only apologized because I felt like, you know,
Starting point is 01:42:42 it offended some people. And for me... I mean, people were offended. People were, it offended some people. And for me, I mean, people were offended. People were in their feelings about it. And for me, I just like the bag. I thought it was nice. It's a green bag. I'm on the carpet.
Starting point is 01:42:53 I'm going to explain exactly what happened. I'm on the carpet. I take some photos. The paparazzi, like all of the cameras, you know, they seen the bag. They said they like it. I'm at the end of the carpet. They're like, point it here. We want to see it.
Starting point is 01:43:03 I'm clearly smiling. I mean, personally, I am affected by gun violence, so I'm not no shape or form promoting that. You know what I mean? Like, I deal with that every day with my son. You know what I mean? So that's not something I'm promoting, but I liked it. I thought it was cool. I liked the bag.
Starting point is 01:43:16 It was green. It went with my dress. It was different. It's not classic. Is being with Gotti and, like, I don't know, going to Memphis what inspired you to have the gun-shaped purse, maybe? No. To get your gangsta on? No, I literally just..., going to Memphis what inspired you to have the gun shaped purse maybe? No. Get your gangsta on? No, I literally just.
Starting point is 01:43:27 What's wrong with you? I literally just like the purse. I thought the purse was like cool and different. You know, like for me, I don't want to do what everybody else doing. I just do what I like to do. And I thought that it matched the dress and it was different than a classic clutch. I didn't like that you apologized. I'm like, what are you apologizing for?
Starting point is 01:43:43 Just I didn't because I don't like to upset anyone. You know know what i mean like if you're offended or think i was trying to promote gun violence i'm not you know what i mean so i'm just like true to that and true to who i am so that's the only reason you could have been promoting second amendment rights though like i'm i'm from i'm 2a all day i believe in my second amendment right so it's like who knows i mean they read it wrong i feel like the media just painted a picture that they wanted to, and it's not true. It's not even who I am. You know, that's just not how I am. Would you wear it again?
Starting point is 01:44:09 I don't think it's necessary. You did it once already. I think, you know, they seen it. I mean, I thought it was cool in the moment. I liked the person. That was it. It was really simple. Like, I didn't mean nothing else by it.
Starting point is 01:44:19 All of these rappers that be in music videos with guns and promoting guns, they're going to get mad at Angela Simmons and Angela Simmons has to apologize. Come on. It's different. It's definitely different. It is different. They're rappers. They rap about shooting guns and everything, even if they don't. That's a different life.
Starting point is 01:44:38 She's, you know, I get why. I'm just I'm not about that life. That's just not me. Like, I literally just thought it was a nice purse at the time and it matched the dress. It was green. It wasn't the regular purse you would wear with it. I don't know. That was my, that's all I got for that.
Starting point is 01:44:52 How much does social media impact you in moments like that? Because, you know, people, like you just said, people are online saying, oh, you know, she lost her ex-fiancee to gun violence, so she should be more cautious. Like, did that really get to you? To me, it's like I'm living that, right? Like, that's's my everyday thing my son's asking what happened to his dad my son's looking it up like i go through that so it's like that's my real life and then like whatever people like paint online is on them i normally don't even like i just don't talk and address whatever people say it doesn't affect me because i've been around it so long like i'm used to people having their own opinion like i know who i am so i don't it don't
Starting point is 01:45:25 affect me i only said so because i was like all right it's out of control it's out of hand like let me just say what it is you know what i mean but that to me it doesn't affect me in that way all right we got more with angela simmons when we come back so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still chopping it up with angela. Angela Cakes is out right now with Slutty Vegan. So you can go to any Slutty Vegan store and check it out. Charlamagne. Now, I was joking before, but did you ask your pops about the tub thing?
Starting point is 01:45:56 Or was that just you paying homage? Or did he say anything to you? No, I actually just did it. It was the idea of mine and Khalilah, my partner, who's actually in here. And I just, we thought it was cool. We were like kalila my partner who's actually in here um and i just we thought it was cool like we were like we're putting out fried oreos what else would you do except bathing oreos you know what i mean like it's a cool idea so i didn't think nothing else of it and then obviously it came up people like your dad and i'm like well it is true i mean my dad do has has and
Starting point is 01:46:20 does sit in the tub so i mean but no i didn't like even think about it like that. I just thought it was cool. People forget your age because people keep saying, you know, like, what about your dad? But they don't know that you're in your 30s. You know, they're like, do they think that you're still a teenager? Like he said, did your dad like? I feel like, you know, being on Run's house and growing up on Run's house in 17, it's like they stuck somewhere over there. Like, I'm not 18. I'm not 17.
Starting point is 01:46:42 Like, I'm grown, grown. But they do. Like, I'm not 18. I'm not 17. Like, I'm grown, grown. But they do. Like, I think they forget. And then on top of that, I think a lot of times people, because of where I come from, they prejudge before, like, knowing me. I mean, obviously,
Starting point is 01:46:52 no one really truly knows me except my people. But, like, on social, they think they know me. Like, you shouldn't be doing that. Why? Like, that's me. I'm grown.
Starting point is 01:47:00 That's what I do, you know? How much time you spending in the South? Because I hear accents. She definitely got that. She definitely got that accent. Say music right fast. Music? me I'm grown that's what I do you know I'm gonna tell you he's been in the soccer that hair accent is probably my man got it of your man or your what and only people to have like a crush on you he's had a crush on me he said that in a song how did it go from a bar in a song to a full-blown relationship i don't know we got here we that was years ago and then just cut to like we're together like it's pretty real um was it like did you were you ever was you crushing on him too or was it just like did he

And then after we hung, whenever that was, two years ago almost, we just never stopped hanging. And then we was together. It got either one? Yeah, for sure. So you want to get married and all of that? Yeah, definitely. I'm too old to be playing games.
Starting point is 01:48:25 I'm in it. And that is a thing. You know, when we had him up here, we was talking to him about it. He said he hadn't, he hadn't really sat down and had a conversation
Starting point is 01:48:32 with your father yet. So do you feel men have to get dad's approval? For sure. My dad likes him though. He does. So, I mean, for sure,

Why was it important for you to make your son CEO of his father's company? Well, first of all, my son likes business already. He's already like a little mini hustler.
Starting point is 01:49:28 He wants to know how to make money, get his own. Like he's just that's just who he is. But his father actually left that company in his name. And when his father was here, he helped build up that company. So I want him to know what his father left for him. And so and he's ready. He's like, I want to go to work. I'm trying to go every day.

Starting point is 01:50:19 okay you know like my son just processes information but he's good with him he's really good with him speaking of your baby, do you want more kids? Um, eventually, I think. When the time makes sense. But for now, I'm like, I'm cool. Okay. God's time. God's, absolutely.

For real? Like, you're a New Yorkie. Don't say that because they used to say my accent from New York was so strong you can't tell me I'm losing it. Oh, no, that changed. You don't hear it?
