That's right. Sexy Red will show this morning. That's right. Sexy Red will be joining us. That's right. Yes, we're going to kick it with Sexy Red. Hood Hottest Princess Deluxe is out right now. That's right. We're going to talk to her. And then also OG.

Architect of Hip Hop. One of the architects of Hip Hop. Founders of Hip Hop. Yes, Grandmaster Flash. You probably wouldn't be a DJ if it wasn't for Grandmaster Flash. Yes, when you talk about... No, you wouldn't be a DJ if it wasn't for Grandmaster Flash. You probably wouldn't be a DJ if it wasn't for Grandmaster Flash. No, you wouldn't be a DJ if it wasn't for Grandmaster Flash. When they talk about the originators of DJing and this hip-hop thing, they always mention Flash, of course, Afrika Bambaataa, and Kool Herc.

That's right. We're going to talk to Grandmaster Flash. Nice talent show. He's actually going to do kind of like a session. A tutorial session. Hey, man, it's too hot in here, man. It's very hot in here man It's very hot in here What the hell is going on

It's that hot Let's get this show cracking Front page news is next Teslin Figueroa says To Breakfast Club Good morning Look at this I'm gonna go crazy Morning everybody It's DJ Front page news is next. Tezlin Figueroa says to Breakfast Club, good morning. Look at this. That's on the crazy.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Hello. I'm here. I got a guest co-host. Jess Solaris is here.

And good morning, Tez. The pause was too long. That's right, Jess. Speak up, Jess. I'm not now. You got it for me. I just introduced myself. too long. That's right, Jess. Speak up, Jess. Jesus Christ. You got it for me. I just introduced myself.

I know. That's right. Good morning, everybody. Good morning, everybody. Good morning, my Jess. Holding it down. Good morning, Charlemagne DJ. Let's start off with sports.

Now, the Raiders beat the Chargers last night 63-21. They don't even care no more. They don't care no more. The Chargers is like 5-9. 5-9. Raiders is 6-8 now. They don't even care no more. They don't care no more. The charges are like 5 and 9. 5 and 9. The rate is a 6 and 8 now. They don't even care. No.

All right. That's a WNBA basketball score. Yeah, it is. Now let's jump right into it. Let's talk about these credit unions. Yeah, the nation's largest credit union rejected more than half of its black conventional mortgage applicants. Let's take a listen to the report and give you some more on the other side. According to a CNN analysis of federal consumer protection data, last year, Navy Federal Credit Union only approved 48%. That's less than half of its black applicants

for conventional home mortgages. White borrowers were approved more than 75% of the time. It's the biggest gap among the top 50 lenders. The data also shows Navy Federal was more than twice as likely to deny black mortgage applicants than white ones, even when different variables, including income, debt, property value, and down payment percentage were the same. What's new? Yeah, well, absolutely. You're right about that. What's new? Yeah, but I love it when they get adherence to all federal laws and employee training, fair lending, statistical testing,

third-party evaluations, and compliance reviews are embedded in our lending practices to ensure fairness across the board. But we'll see about that. I feel like there's going to be a discrimination lawsuit coming their way, just like with Wells Fargo. The Wells Fargo had to pay when they were found to discriminate against people. So it's a really good, interesting story. You guys want to go check it out and look at the story of the man, the black man who had over 700 credit score and made plenty of money and was just denied for no reason in Dallas, Texas.

So that's what kind of prompted this and CNN did a great job pulling those receipts. Yes, racial bias has always affected mortgage lending. Always. Even the appraisals of what houses are worth depending on where you live and who you are. We talk about the story all the time about this black couple

who changed all the pictures in their house instead of having their own family pictures, put white family pictures in the house and the appraisal of the house actually went up because people thought it was a white person living there opposed to a black person wow so they pulled the oj they pulled the oj move remember johnny conkrin did that uh well you may not remember that but johnny conkrin did that during the oj trial just as fy but they wasn't for the appraisal what do you do i forgot what do you do he took out all of the uh the black photos i mean i took out took out all of the white photos and put black photos up he did the opposite so that when the jury went through when the jury went through to look at the house because they

brought the jury to oj's house they had to black it up so that was something i think i do remember that that's when they had oj with the dashiki on in churches, going to black churches. I'm like, man. Not in church. He was. I'm serious. They had him wearing a dashiki, and he was going to black churches. I don't remember that. I don't remember that. So that was a Johnny Cochran trick, and it worked quite well.

Rest in peace to Johnny Cochran. All right. Well, that is front page news. Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection,

it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace.

Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way, Jess? Yes, we do. But because the producer just gave me the stuff, I got to look. So, I got to see, so I got to see. But I know Nicki in there, so we're going to see what's going on with that. All right, we'll get into that next.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Jess Hilarious is our guest co-host. Let's get to Jess with the miss.

News is real. What is Jess Hilarious? Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do that it's just for the message on the breakfast club nikki minaj won his smoke last night so nikki minaj was not here for elliot wilson's is it wilson or or Wilson because right here is written wrong uh Elliot Wilson's thoughts on the current state of hip-hop journalism Elliot posted a screenshot of Nicki Minaj twerking in front of Kaisa Nett and his crew during a live

stream along with the caption hip-hop journalism seemingly mocking it so of course we've seen Nicki having fun with Kaisa Nett and his crew and all of that. And she has an album out, so she is promoting, you know, and she's promoting the way she wants to. And one of her ways to promote is having fun with them. That's right. Drop on a Clues Bomb for Ka-Sinat. Ka-Sinat, definitely. I think what Kai has created is dope. He be on there reviewing music, critiquing music, and dancing to music, and it's dope.

Ka-Sinat. He having fun. Ka-Sinat to these kids is what Soul Train was to us. It's fun. It's happy. It's light. Do your thing, Kai. And then it's genuine fun.

It's not forced. He actually be having people on there like turning up and really just like, yeah, like having fun. Just looking stupid. Yeah, looking stupid. Oh yeah, definitely looking stupid, but that's the part of having fun.

That's right. You know what I mean? So Elliot also tweeted some nice things about Nicki too. He said, never diss Nicki. Always said she's a female rap goat over Lauren, Missy, Kim, and Lauren, you know, Missy, Kim, and Foxy, and all. I think Cardi B is dope, too. Happy holidays.

Nicki is the goat and best. Again, new album is dope. But that wasn't good enough for her because she felt like it was some underlying hate there. Underlining hate there. But he was more so coming at Kai, you know, I guess he's saying like yo you're promoting your album So you would go promote it there instead of sitting down doing real interviews with real people about why is Kaisa not not considered But just journalists Kaisa not a soul train you go on there Listen to your music you dance to your music and then he asked you a couple questions about your music same way Don Cornelius yeah, yeah, it seems like he was mad at both.

It seems like he was mad at Kaisa and I, and it also seems like he was mad at Nicki for going on Kaisa. Well, learn how to dance, Elliot. We do have audio, though. His original post was enough to send Nicki off the deep end. That's what she had to say. Elliot has been one of those people who are used to be the mouthpiece for others. And the past couple of years, he's said some nasty things about me and I didn't respond. I didn't, I kept on moving.

But then I dropped an album and you're jealous that you didn't interview me? Why? And by the way, you're a grown f***ing man. If you wanted an idiot with all of y'all, for some reason, when y'all are around certain people, y'all feel that y'all have this power. Oh, I didn't know he came at Drake. I must have missed it. Came at Drake for what? Nobody owes you s***.

F*** you. Why? When y'all have an affiliation to Jay-Z in some sort of way, y'all be thinking that y'all can disrespect him violently. That's the moral of the story. Elliot needs to learn how to dance. That's what Nikki just said. Bust that bussy open, Elliot. The last part of that.

He needs to know how to do the worm. The last part of that audio is actually interesting because she also piggybacked that with a tweet. She said, you know, Elliot, if spit jay-z penis out for one second you'd be able to be happy happy for the newcomers isn't that how y'all try to tarnish my image by saying i'm not welcoming the new bees in i could say though i could say bitches all right yeah uh dip songs with all of them though why are you not happy for a young black man like kai tomorrow bitch jay-z at home right now what i got to do

with yeah jay-z playing with the kids because she basically saying it's like because she just basically saying people who stand next to him feel like they can see whatever they want to say you know like they feel like they're in a position of power and they can't nobody come back but i will say this but elliot also has he should be able to have an opinion he is a hip-hop journalist he started from source to double xl to the is a hip-hop journalist. He started from Source to XXL to the things that he's created.

So he has a different feeling for hip-hop journalism and he could have his opinion. Even if we think his opinion is trash, he could have his opinion. Absolutely. And I'm glad you're saying something

because she had said something about you too. In a tweet she said, remember how cocky DJ Envy was when he was saying he blackballs my music on the radio? Ask yourself, how could a DJ get away with that behavior?

I said the same thing. I did not know that that happened. What was the reason behind it, though? Because we know Nicki does not forget anything. I was here. I don't forget either. I love it. I was here.

I love it. And I know that we, y'all, I've heard y'all play our records, like, actually last week. But. That's me. No, that was me. I played it in the mix. That was me. I was there. I love it. And I know that we, I've heard y'all play our records like actually last week, but what happened? No, that was me. I played it in the mix. That was me. That was me. But what happened?

Because I've never heard of anything about you. I guess this was like five, six years ago. I guess DJ Self, who's a DJ on the station, and I ride for all the DJs. I support all the DJs.

He said that Cardi B's album was better than Nicki Minaj Nicki Minaj At the time Got upset And said she was Sending some Queens dudes Up here to

Pretty much beat them up Okay And he was threatening them And I thought that was whack I thought that If somebody has an opinion Yeah You can't threaten that man

For his opinion Now if he says some foul Is about you Your husband Your kids Or your family Then everything is open But if he just says I don't like your album Or I feel a way says some foul is says some foul is about you your husband your kids or your family then it's everything is open but if he just says i don't like your album or i feel a way and you threaten

him i just find that's whack and i and i ride and i ride email right no i didn't say subject nicki minaj blackball no please grow up charlemagne go so i ride for the djs meaning the djs are always the one that gets picked on that gets beat up like if you think of beefs an artist never goes at the other artists they always say well why the dj played the record why don't you go back at the artist that you're mad at so the dj always gets picked on always gets bullied so i was like that's not right i'm not gonna let you just threaten a dj because he had an opinion right so you're just standing with the dj just like rappers stand with rappers correct comedian stand so what i said was i'm not going to play nikki's record until they squash that beef.

Okay. That has nothing to do with the station. I don't pick the records that the station plays. I don't pick the records that you hear every morning. I just said,

I don't want to because you threaten that man on an opinion. Yeah. And DJs, we need to stand together when that happens because if not,

it's going to happen more and it's going to happen more and it's going to happen more. You're going to see more DJs getting slapped like you've seen them already. Yeah. That's not right. And that's what I said. What if they deserve to get slapped though? If're going to see more DJs getting slapped like you've seen them already. Yeah. And that's not right.

And that's what I said. What if they deserve to get slapped though? If they deserve to get slapped, that's a different reason. That's what I said. If they deserve to get slapped, that's on them. But if it's over an opinion. The Bobs feel like you deserve to get slapped right now. The Bobs is like, why are you doing this?

But like I said. Why did you do this? So that was the reason why. But I thought it was squash. This was six years ago. So I thought it was squash. Even when her album came out, we played her music. I still play her music.

And I'll continue to play her music and I'll continue to play her music especially when you be in here shaking your little tush Nicki Minaj

records behind the scenes you be in here with your little tush push when Ruby Red

come on well we know that everybody used to really love that other one

Chun Li oh Red Ruby the sleeves another one too Chun Li yeah

oh I ruby the sleeves No, I didn't play it during that time but I thought they squashed that be I can't I can't blackball all I could do is not You baby in my base water you baby is it a lovely baby baller. Did you be I didn't play in my 11-minute mix drop on the clues bomb for me like yo like what do niggas grow up for the dj because nobody ever does just like during covid when everybody was standing up for the bartenders and yeah everything raising money i raise money with nurses i raise money for the tribe everybody got DJs with, it's a tribe. Everybody got their own tribe. And it's fine. And then like you said, like you said,

you said that you didn't want to play the record until, I mean, play a music until they squashed that. They squashed that beef and they did. Yeah. What about the boss? You want to know what I got for the boss? She just wants an apology. You want to know what I got for the boss?

You better play a record. Play it. And Nicki Minaj drink. What are you doing? What are you doing? I want to know what I got for the B.O.G.S.? You better play a record. Play it. And Nicki Minaj drink.

you want that nicky voodoo off you morning everybody it's dj envy charlemagne the guy we Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Our guest co-host Jess Hilarious is here. What up, Tess? What's going on, DJ Envy? Good morning.

Beautiful Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. Peace, Tess. Did you just hear your radio husband? Did I hear my radio husband? Yeah. No, I didn't. He called up here. He said somebody tried to call up here the other day and try to shoot their shot at you.

And he felt disrespected because he went on the airwaves and told them, Tez is my radio wife. That's right. That was Lovey. That was Lovey. Lovey said he announced that you are his radio wife. So he just put it out there. Oh, wow. See, I don't ever get a chance.

Y'all put me out the room during the front, during the, uh, get it off your chest. He got it off his chest. He said, tell them they can keep on hitting the DM. Tell them fall back is what he said. Oh, wow. Well, let's get some front page news. The Raiders squashed the charges 63-21 last night. All right.

And now let's jump right into it. Let's talk about this blue collar hiring. Yeah, we're trying to get this story out all week to let the blue-collar family know that things are looking good for them as they go into 2024. Now, this year was really good. They had strong hiring, more jobs in the blue-collar area,

more than their white-collar counterparts. The white-collar counterparts, especially the tech sector, has went down. That's been the sharpest pullback, especially, you know, after post-pandemic. Now now for jobs in the software development and it operations where the jobs pick up that trade pick up a wrench get on some manufacturing jobs that's right look like you have a good year next year learn to trade man i tell everybody that go learn to trade go learn how to do something with your hands we need more architect not architects we do need more architect

we need more electricians and plumbers and people that know how to install HVAC. HVAC, yep, that's right. Welding, also automotive, healthcare as well. Those are all great trades that pay a lot of money and you will always have a job, even in a recession, even if COVID comes back, it doesn't matter.

You will always have a job. You are an essential worker. Shout out to Lincoln Tech, too. That's right, and we have to keep continuing to push for that shout out to our brother killer mike we're always advocating for to get shop back into the public schools so you know they took a lot of that out of the schools and that's something we need to bring back and cosmetology by the way need that back in the in the schools as well that's right now let's talk about these uh this holiday stress yeah social media so charlamagne I heard you bring this up the other day. You were talking about

social media and how stressful it is, particularly during the holidays. So I wanted to give you a poll. Yahoo News said they polled about 1,500 Americans found that 38% of the respondents experience an increase in stress

during the holiday compared to other times of the year. And a lot of that has to do with social media. Of course, you have stress for financial stress, buying gifts, not having enough time to enjoy the holidays tension but social media feeds into that a lot it says that people need

to take a break from social media particularly during the holidays they also said that the comparison is the thief of joy so you know scrolling and saying what somebody has what I don't have looking in the comments arguing with folks you don't know. They recommend you set some boundaries when it comes to your online use. So I thought that was a story that before we go on this holiday break to remind people, relax, maybe get off social media just for a little bit and, you know, take take a moment to reflect. No, definitely. I was just just talking about that with my manager. I was like, you know, it's easy to like the devil of comparison is definitely what haunts people. Not even just around these times, just period.

You're going up, you're looking at what other people got and you're feeling a way about yourself. When like my son's dad, he takes breaks from social media and he thrives in so many aspects of his life. Like so many, like with work and just like building his business and all that, paying attention to his kids and getting to know them and how they are living

and all that type of stuff when you take a break from social media. It's like a job that you ain't getting paid for. I'm just happy that you say something good about your baby daddy.

Absolutely. Damn. Something good. Damn, go ahead, Ted. Don't you say something. Girl, please. I'm tired of hearing about how Rome can't fight.

Nobody got time. No, you just keep bringing up that he can't fight. I told you that one time he running with it. You bring it up every interview I hear you do. No, I don't even do interviews because of that reason. Because I don't like how they look after I do them. But I also say, Ted, is how people look at social media.

Because it's like when I look at some of these, you know, artists, celebrities, billionaires, or millionaires, and I look at the stuff that they're doing, it shows me what I can do, right? I'm a kid from Queens, so I didn't see it often. And when I seen it, it was usually the D-Boys, the drug dealers or whatever it may be.

So the fact that I can see people doing things that I probably didn't see, I can see a touch whether it's following, you know, Tyler Perry or following Swiss Beats or Charlamagne or Jess Hilarion. You want to be like Tyler Perry? You said what? You want to be like Tyler Perry?

I don't want to be like anybody, but what they do is inspiration. Tyler the man. What they do is inspiration, and I love what Tyler Perry does. I love what he created, even 50 Cent, what he created in Shreveport, Louisiana. That's all inspiration for me. Yeah, shout out to him. I don't want to be anybody, but what they do is inspiration. I'll tell y'all what y'all need to do.

Y'all need to remember the reason for the season. If you remember the reason for the season, you wouldn't have no jealousy and envy because we all can have jesus that's right go ahead pastor charlemagne um there are some i just want to say there is some positive to it there is some positive to following folks to envy's point but we still have to remember those are snapshots in time and a lot of people you know they say what it is they're gonna be lying okay don't nobody be putting a real process up you don't ever see nobody when they ugly A lot of people, you know, they're looking at it. Man, just say what it is, Tez. Them niggas be lying, okay? They be lying, y'all. Let's just go and say what it is. They be lying. Don't nobody be putting they real process up.

You don't ever see nobody when they ugly. But seriously, look, that's the thing. That's the beauty of social media, too. And then I just said, Tez, I just said the other day in one of my videos, like, I just be sliding little gems in there. I said it just so everybody know everybody is broke right now. You know what I mean? A lot of people are broke

and it's okay to be broke. You don't always have to look like you got it because that's unrealistic. Even the people that we see at the top really don't always have it. And I'm talking about the top of social media because people, they worship that. They look at that as like the holy grail.

That's their blueprint. So these influencers and all these people, they really ain't got it either. But you know, they're not going to show that they don't have it that's not their job that ain't gonna get no that's not gonna get them no way they gotta look like they're right like it's a certain image that they want to look you know they want well i do want to thank you for being inspirational just in the relationship area we are so much negative i'm always sharing your

relationship no relationship is perfect i'm sure you have your ups and downs. But I do love that you highlight you and your man and how y'all wheelbarrow photos. Oh my God. Everything that she highlighted, she's going to highlight the wheelbarrow photo. If you look at Jess' photo right now,

Jess screensaver is both of them together. Look at that. Look how they screensaver. Look at her. I love it. screensaver it's both of them together look at that look at that look out here they screensaver hey let me just say this because people oh you love jess hilarious yes i do i i love the fact that you're a mom i love the fact that you got your man i love that you're on your mission and you own your money thank you don't let these women out here trick you out your man and your money and your mission, baby. You doing it.

So I just love it. Period. I love it. They're going to see the color purple tonight. We're matching purple outfits on. Yes. Make sure y'all take some photos. No, we're not.

They be like, you know they gonna take that and twist it. Like, I don't be knowing what to say or what not to say. And, like, I just still feel like I'm just a regular. You know, I don't be feeling like I'm no celebrity. And when people be putting cameras in my face, I be like,

why is they doing all that? They be like, this what come with it. I don't be with all that, though. Yeah. Was you really f***ing Drake? That was another thing I saw in there after you about Drake. You was like, I be f***ing with Drake. Oh, no, see, that's what I'm saying. She playing. How are we supposed to know what you playing, sexy red? It don't matter.

Y'all, they take, I feel like people take the internet too serious. That's why I be messing with y'all. Yeah. I play with y'all heads. I like that. Y'all not gonna really know what's going on. Y'all just, y'all believe anything y'all see. I don't believe everything I see on the internet.

I be like, man. That's real. This gotta be fake. I be like, man, I don't believe this s***. Until I see the proof, then I be like, okay, I gotta be fake. I be like, man, I don't believe this shit. Until I see the proof, then I be like, okay, I believe in it. Do you ever feel a way about seeing little

kids online reciting your lyrics or, like, you know, for this past Halloween, a lot of moms dressed their daughters up in sexy red. You know, how do you feel about, does that make you feel a way? Because you're not obligated to be anybody's role model, but do you feel a type of way about it no i feel like that's that's what's up like because when i was little i mean we looked up to the older girls and stuff even the ones that

was bad like just because they do bad stuff that don't mean like i don't know they are a bad person yeah there ain't no bad people we still looked up to them you know they was probably talking crazy or they don't mean nothing they just fuck with my personality i think when you come from a certain environment you learn not to judge people for what they do when they're in survival mode yeah that's what i'm saying like i don't be judging nobody i've been like that though i just let everybody do them because you never know what they going through so i'll just be like maybe they did that for a reason so i don't be mad at nobody you got people from your hood leaning on you as far as like financials like yo rad i know you got it throw me something i just heard that somebody was in the hood talking stuff about me talking about i ain't putting no guns in the hood and i ain't doing this and that

i'm like what i mean i'll be throwing block parties after having barbecue ice cream like bouncy house i'll be doing all kind of stuff for the hood so i'm like that's crazy why would he want you to put guns in the hood yeah they think i'm Napalm Tech. Y'all better get it like I got it. Yeah. Rich Baby Daddy, was your verse actually longer? Because it seems like it was short. Yes, it was. So Drake cut the verse?

Yeah. And he cut pieces up because that beat wasn't even on that beat. It was on another beat. And I had did a verse, like a 16 bar, and probably over the hook. And then he cut it up chopped it up he put two different songs together actually

really yeah it was two different songs that should have been your song that should have been your scissors why is that it

I just think it would have took off more if it was from you it's a number one record I don't it's a number one record I think Drake made it take off

yeah I like the record I love the record actually I be seeing y'all listen to it. Oh, you saw that? Yeah, they be turning up. Did you see the conversation we had about your lyrics, right? And I was saying that every generation, there's a woman rapper who pushes the boundary of lyrics. Like, you're not really doing nothing different than Lil' Kim was doing.

Or even Salt-N-Pepa in the 80s. Like, Everybody was considered edgy for their time. That's all I be saying. People be getting on me, but I be like, why is that the only thing y'all hear when I say something about a c**t? They take the c**t part and just, that's all she's talking about. Like, what? That's all y'all

got from that? I be saying all kinds of stuff in my song. I mean, to be fair, the hook is called P**ty Pink, Booty Brown. That is the hook. That song was strictly About pound town So that's nothing Yeah but You're saying you have

Other songs in your catalog Where you're not Just talking about Yeah it's like Why do y'all think I just rap about that All day like I don't understand

If that's the only song Somebody's heard I can understand Why they would Come to that conclusion Do you have a favorite song So far of your own Pound town

Pound town Cause it got me Out the trenches Yeah P trenches yeah got you out the trenches i love it i knew i knew it was though like when i recorded i came out the booth i'm like this the one this gonna get me out the hood i told everybody so when your team heard that hook what was that was everybody was laughing we was all in the studio laughing because i was freestyling yeah and then they was like be serious like this ain't serious. You ain't serious. Be serious.

And you was like, this is going to be it. I'm like, this, they going to like it. They going to f*** it. Trust me. And they like, no. They wouldn't believe me. That song, they was just like, mm-mm. But now they be like, okay, she know, she strategize.

Drop on a clues bomb for 50. I think we can forget about First Lady of BMF. I think he... Damn, yo, you can't. What? No, I don't mean it like that. Damn, man. Are you trying to blackball First Lady of BMF?

That's what he's trying to do. For being played? Envy does all the blackball. No, I don't do blackball. I'm a baby, man. Are you trying to blackball First Lady of BMS? That's what he's trying to do. For being played? Envy does all the blackball. No, I don't do blackball. I'm a baby, sir. I think 50 would cast you or something. Yeah, I think he would, too. Yeah, yeah.

He keeps telling me he is, but you know, he's such a busy guy, so hopefully he does. He has a lot of shows greenlit that he told me that I'm going to get a job in. He's like Tasha's sister on power. I know, right? Yeah, they say we favor in the forehead, so I'm trying to see what's up with that. But he has a lot of ideas for street sports just to bring just a culture and a different community out there he's gonna do not just the movies and the tv and the directing and the acting in that film space he's gonna bring a lot to the city so i can't wait for you

guys to hear and see that and also you know i was gonna say you talked about little baby people said that about ti too they with his accent was so strong he wasn't gonna be able to act and do other things and he proved them wrong. Because T.I. has been able to do things. Yeah. No, I didn't say that Lil Baby ain't going to be able to act. But he's going to until he get like, you know, like, I think it's like some type of speech something. Speech class.

Yeah, for actors, you know, to get out of there when your accent is so heavy like that. Yeah, I definitely don't doubt that he'll go far in this. You know, if he puts his mind to it, for sure. Yeah, me and me do that for TV because of my lisp. And it's still there. It still ain't working. It sure didn't. That's why he's doing radio.

Put your tongue behind your teeth. When he used to say my name, he'd be like, Jeff Delary. I'd be like, yo, back up. He couldn't control it when I first met him. I'm like, yo, you need to relax, sir. Back up. Yeah. Glowrilla responds to Fab's comments on female rappers.

Earlier this year, Fabulous posted his thoughts about female rappers to his his instagram story he said he loved hearing female rappers talk some real s uh women are so strong have so many stories and perspectives that we need to hear in pure form no disrespect to any female rappers out there uh but i think there's only one style of female hip-hop rap being promoted programmed and looked at as successful now uh during a recent interview with gq glorilla was asked how she felt about that and uh she reportedly said uh after rolling her eyes what men rap about killing effing robbing cars and money she's not wrong uh females rapping about the same s but guess what we're not killing we're not in gangs we're not robbing that's what men be doing what we doing we sitting pretty and popping out ass we hustling getting money we f so we rap about what we do i feel like uh she's not wrong yeah

fab is not wrong either because he's not really coming at them he's just saying one style of rap is being promoted programmed and looked at as successful now but he got to pay attention to like we got scarlet we got lady london we got uh lola brook we got other and we even got doja we got other rappers that don't just talk about. Rhapsody. You know, Rhapsody. Yeah, for sure. You know, but.

I guess he said being promoted, but Doja's being promoted. Right. Right, right, right. Doja's just dope. Doja doesn't talk about all that. We got promoted more than Gangsta Rap, though. You know? We got promoted more than Trap Rap.

But that's for men, too. So I agree with Lola, you know. I agree with both of them. So that's just with the mess. There you go. The news is real. Allegedly. Period.

All right. Now, Charlamagne, who you giving that down? Man, four after the hour, we're going to learn a lesson about empathy, okay? Sometimes you have to step into somebody else's shoes to know how they feel. We'll discuss. All right. We'll get into that next. So don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Push Donkey up the deep. Maybe. Damn, the hee-haw again. It's time for Donkey up the deep. What's donkey up to today? Baby! Damn, the hee-haw again? It's time for donkey up to day.

I ain't trying to be donkey today no more. They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making these people do these things. They called donkey up to day and it really caught me off guard. Damn, Charlemagne, who got the donkey up to day today? Well, Jess and Larry, it's donkey up to day

for Friday, December 15th. Calls the Rosemary Hayne. Who is Rosemary Hayne? She is an Ohio woman who doesn't respect individuals who work in the fast food industry. Salute to all the fast food workers out there. Drop on the clues bombs for the fast food workers. Yes, yes. You ever worked fast food, Jess?

I have. I was the manager at McDonald's. Okay. Yep. I worked at Taco Bell. I worked at Taco Bell for two weeks. Okay. My sister was the manager. She fired me after two weeks. Good decision. Very good Yep. I worked at Taco Bell. I worked at Taco Bell for two weeks. Okay. My sister was the manager. She fired me after two weeks. Good decision.

Very good decision. Understandable. I deserved it. I didn't want to be there no way. So I'm sure I was projecting that energy on the others. But I respect all fast food workers. Okay. Why would I not respect the people who work at the establishments that we all frequent? I will never understand people who feel like they can disrespect fast food

workers. How can you look down on fast food workers but yet you are eating at their establishments and those of you who disrespect fast food workers before you get your food y'all are just insane humans then you wonder why people are farting on your quarter pounders you ever farted on a quarter pounder i have never fought on anybody's food okay have you no i would not do nothing like that okay they done dropped your curly fries all over the floor and put them right back in the box like it's nothing but you earn that because you want to disrespect people that's exactly what rosemary hayne did she she was at chipotle and she ordered a burrito bowl her burrito bowl wasn't made the way she liked it instead of being a

civilized human and just simply asking for it to be remade she decided to resort to violence let's go to queen city news for the report please it is a popular term in the criminal justice system does the crime fit the punishment well a this fast food frenzy it seems to fit pretty well yeah video from an ohio chipotle from last month showing a customer throwing hot food right in the face of one of the workers and now she has been sentenced to an unusual punishment for that assault the victim told the judge that she was traumatized by the incident and the judge in turn said he was appalled by the actions of one rosemary hayne hayne was initially sentenced to 180 days in jail with 90 days suspended i'm appalled too okay that's whack don't play with people like that

that woman is 39 years old okay rosemary hay. And the woman she threw the food at was 17. How are you displaying lower emotional IQ than a 17-year-old? All she did was mess up your order. That's a simple conversation. Let them know what they did wrong. They will fix that. But you, Rosemary, dealing with some type of internal issues, mad at the world about something,

and decided to throw your Chipotle bowl at the young lady. I wish that the young lady and a couple of other Chipotle workers would have jumped you. Okay? Violence begets violence. Disrespect begets disrespect. I know Michelle Obama said when they go low, we go high. But sometimes you got to take it to the floor at Chipotle with a person. Okay?

Throwing something at me is assault, especially when that something is hot grilled meat, hot rice, hot beans, hot veggies, guac, salsa, sour cream, and cheese. So I have the right to defend myself. For God still working guac, salsa, sour cream, and cheese. So I have the right to defend myself for God still working on me. Clearly this 17 year old has higher emotional IQ than me because she did what she was supposed to do. And that's call the police. I believe she called the police because this young lady ended up in jail and she got a very unique punishment. I have never heard of a punishment like this. Let's go back to queen city news for the report. Please. The judge ordered her a chance to reduce her sentence. She'd get a lot less time in jail

if she worked for 60 days at a fast food restaurant. You didn't get your burrito bowl the way you like it. This is how you respond. You went in there looking for a fight. I did not, Your Honor. I did not. If I show you how my food looked and how my food looked a week later from that same restaurant, it was disgusting looking. My daughter was when I did it. I'll bet you're not going to be happy with the food you're about to get in jail. Do you want to walk in her shoes for two months

and learn how people should treat people, or do you want to do your jail time? I'd like to walk in her shoes. Prior to her sentencing, Hayne did tell the victim she was sorry. We do know that she has had interviews, but it's unclear if she had landed a fast food job just yet i like this either work as a fast food worker for two months i do 90 days in jail what would you choose jess hilarious i would choose the two months and you know i'm fast

food working but so i wonder how the 17 year old girl feels like what you give her you give her a chance to work at a restaurant instead of paying for the crime the right way. Yo, I got hot food thrown in my face. I guess that would be considered community service, maybe? Yeah, but what? What would you do, Andy? I'm not really paying attention. They're about to send up pizza, oxtail pizza, and I've been waiting on that.

Trash. Trash. You gotta stop. I already tried it. It's not what you need right now. Okay, Jess. A rind. That ain't it, man.

A rind. A rind. A rind. Okay. Sweet chili salmon pizza and all that. I'm done. They set it up to lobster and shrimp too. Pizza.

Oh, gosh. Jesus. I like this punishment. The reason I like this punishment is because you can't understand someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. All right. We are all so quick to judge, but don't be so quick to judge because you never know when you might find yourself walking in that person you are judging's shoes.

So I love the fact she has to work fast food for two months because I don't know why anyone would think they better than a fast food worker. A fast food worker is a human, just like you a human, trying to get through their day, making an honest living, and we love them, which is why all the fast food restaurants be packed all the time have some empathy okay empathy is the art of stepping into the shoes of another person understanding their feelings and perspectives and using that understanding to guide your actions once rosemary works here for two months in fast food she will never treat fast food workers or probably anybody terribly ever again. I promise if God can make all of us live each other's existences for just two months, the whole world will change.

If white people had to step into black people's shoes, if men had to step into women's shoes, if straight men had to know what it feels like to take penis for two months in the bunkie and be openly gay, we would all start treating each other with love and respect immediately i didn't yeah i vouched too quick i didn't even know real fast i'll be thinking yeah yeah okay please please give rosemary hames the biggest hee-haw she black no honey i never heard rosemary i never heard i'll be honest i ain I never heard of Rosemary. I never heard of Rosemary. I ain't never heard of no Rosemary. I don't know none of them. All right.

A lot of us are here. He's the reason that DJs exist. He's one of the reasons DJs exist. Yeah. When you talk about the founding fathers, it's always Grandmaster Flash, of course, Afrika Bambaataa, and Kool Herc. And we're going to talk to Grandmaster Flash this morning. He's going to give us a lesson.

I know. That's right. All right. So we're going to get to that when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Come on, man. One of the architects of this thing we call hip-hop, man. One of the people who helped lay the foundation for this thing we call hip-hop we wouldn't have jobs if it wasn't for this brother right it would be a DJ if it wasn't for this brother and most people out there most DJs out there wouldn't be DJs if it was no all DJs wouldn't be it wasn't for

this brother ladies and gentlemen Grandmaster flash thank you thank you thank you for having me man I appreciate it come on man happy to have you absolutely appreciate this man you know we on, man. Happy to have you. Absolutely appreciate this, man. You know, we celebrated the 50 years of hip-hop, you know, this year. And Envy and I was on the radio having a conversation, and it just felt like, you know, the architects, like that era of the 80s, you know, wasn't getting honored properly. And none of us are here if that foundation isn't laid.

You said the 80s, the 70s. Correctly, the 70s, yeah. The 70s from the beginning and the 80s. I feel like we're getting on it properly. How do you feel about that, Grandmaster Flash? And that's one of the reasons why I feel that it is paramount that I do lectures. I do corporate tours and lectures. And I've been doing them for private people. But now I kind of want to do this for the public so they can understand that this thing didn't just fall out of a tree.

It didn't just go from the 70s to where we are. You know, there was four DJs that did this. Kool Herc was on the West. AB was Bronx River. African Mammoth. DJ Breakout was the North. I was the East. And pretty much this is how it really started.

And you got to realize this, ladies and gentlemen, we did this with no Internet, no social media. the north I was the east and pretty much this is how it really started and you gotta realize this ladies and gentlemen we did this with no internet no social media no apps no quick hardware where we just work a lot of these things as I was telling you Envy I had to do this with nothing going into the backyards and you know getting old receivers and old turntables and stuff and kind of like jury-rigging my sound system for people listening when he says the west the south the north he's not talking about west coast he's talking about new york the bronx the bronx bronx i want to clear it up and also you know i was talking to of course grandmaster flash behind the scenes a lot of you didn't know you know where we

had the ability to go to these stores and buy equipment he had to actually make it so his first sound system actually came from old cars in the junkyard. He would pull the speakers out of the cars in a junkyard and make sound systems to play at parks and parties and wherever, wherever it was. So you had to actually know electronics. And it just wasn't just about DJing. Right. So what got you into wanting to be a DJ? I know you were telling me the story behind the scenes that, you know, you were just intrigued by electronics in your house when your mother or father plugged something in. And you wanted to understand how it works. So you would start effing up the crib pretty much to figure it out. Yeah, when I was a toddler, everything in the house that was electrical, I was intrigued.

How did that happen? So I used to unscrew the backs of the stereo in the living room. My sister's hair dries, the table radio, all these things. And also what got me into this, when I was a toddler, my dad was a collector of records. And I'm on this respectable airwaves, so I will just say, when I got caught touching his vinyl as a toddler, he used to heavily reprimand me. With your ass. With your ass. I can say that.

Yes, you can. Absolutely. And what I used to do as a kid, I waited for him to go to work. And when the door slammed, I went back in that closet. And the rule was, you know, don't touch the brown box in the living room. And I used to watch dad when he came home from work how he operated it so i figured out how to get into this closet where his stuff was and i would take this square thing that had a black disc and he would put it in this brown box and sound would

come out of it that was probably my first love. But then moving forward, guys, when I heard a drum break from one of the most important black artists of that time, his name was Curtis Mayfield. Move on up. That break, and you and I can relate here, that break was about, I'd say about five minutes of just the drums. And I thought all records was like that. So when I started collecting my records,

the drum break was like five, ten seconds. So what also got me into the DJing is I used to watch the disco DJs like Maboya, Flowers, Pete Jones. And I noticed that their transitions were glass smooth. But then my boys knocked on my door at my mom's house and said, we want to take you to this other side of town to watch these other DJs.

And respectfully, I was wondering, why is it that everything that he was doing was a train wreck? He was playing the incredible music, had the incredible sound system, but why was he playing like that? You know, because the rules and the laws, you know, especially if you got people on the dance floor, the idea is to keep everybody in unison. Correct.

They should not be trying to find the beat as you transition. So from that point on, it's when I came up with the quick mix theory. You know, What is the quick mix theory?

From a mathematical perspective, I took sonics and threw it out the window because if I play a song I hear it a certain way but if I put the headphone on your ear you hear a certain way and Sean you hear a certain way so I said to myself I'm going to take that out of the equation and I'm gonna just collect records from all genres pop rock jazz blues funk disco R&B foreign American and just listen to the drum break and I found that unlike Curtis Mayfield these drum breaks on these other records always

always short that made me quite angry I was disappointed so in mom's house I came up with a hand mechanic fingertips to vinyl fingertips to crossfader DJ style that is used by every hip-hop DJ on planet Earth. And I figured out a way of counting the bars as the vinyl went forward and how many times I would have to re-rind it back to get back to the top of the break and take that 10-second break and make it seamlessly 10 minutes. So if you're on the floor

and I'm playing a Michael Jackson drummer break, I'm playing that for 10 minutes and I'm going to flip to a London break or a German break or whatever break, and this became the way. And then what happened was these incredible people called hip-hop producers took this style of the seamless loop,

and I'm going to show you that on the wheels of steel. You understand what he's saying? He's saying that your quick mix theory turned into what people call loop sampling, basically. Correct. That's exactly what it is. That's exactly what it is. Bring it back from the beginning.

The one thing you'll learn from this interview with Grandmaster Flash is he's not just a musician when it comes to turntables. He's actually, no disrespect, he's a nerd and geek. He wants to understand the mechanics of it. Most people just want to understand the success of it and be successful and be a big man, but he actually understands

the mechanics of music, DJing, transitioning, records, record players, mixes, and this is just for having a 30-second conversation with him. I figured that out immediately. What I find so interesting about this, in the last five minutes, you explained

where DJing started and where hip-hop production started. So when people call you an architect and say you're one of the founding fathers of hip-hop, that is why. Absolutely. Thank you. Alright, we got more with the OG Grandmaster Flash when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy Charlam so don't move, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Grandmaster Flash. I was going to ask, you know, how do you feel when you look at something that you created, right? And you created out of love, right? Yes. You didn't say it was money. You didn't say, I did this because I wanted money.

You said, I enjoyed it. I love listening to music. I love playing in the park. And then you're seeing the commercial success of hip-hop, right? I sent Charlamagne something this morning about Karis One saying why he didn't want to perform at the Grammys. He felt like the Grammys never respected hip-hop. So why come now? How do you feel when you see the commercial success of hip-hop and all these brothers and sisters making money and all these companies making money off of hip-hop,

but some of the founders are not making the money that's deserved because if it wasn't for you guys nobody wouldn't be able to make that money that's a twofold answer just think mv this thing that i did could have missed and if this all would have missed i wouldn't be here talking to you right now so that's one side of it it exploded like there are some companies out there giving away hundreds of thousands of dollars. I've seen this on the internet just recently. But there are those, man, that are in a hood that didn't have the commercial success. Nobody's saying, hey, here's $500,000 for you. They're not saying that.

Like there are those who lost their life that are not even here to even enjoy this. And they have families. So for me me I have to until God takes me I have to go around and mechanically break this thing down I think that people should interview the producers like that just that boggles my mind because they're the ones that really know how to record is made they're the ones that really know how the record is made they're the one that stays in the studios for two and three days to make sure the record is goes from start to finish before the masters is handed in you know so for me and people should know more about kuhurk and their team they should know who coke the rocket is like they're going

around saying he was a rapper he's he's a dj i used to watch him you know and there's timmy tim and it's the original clock kent you know people should know who breakout team is baron you know and bam and bam body and jazzy j and grandmaster flash and grand was at theater like all these people and all these names, you don't hear nothing. That's right. Talk to about them. When people are putting out this press, they're not even coming to ask, well, Flash, what do you think? And respectfully, I'm going to say this. For you to really firsthand know what this is, you have to be at least 60 years old.

And I'll be kind and say 58, 57. That means you had a firsthand eye shot of seeing us do this. If you are 30 or you're 40, and you were saying that you are a hip hop extraordinaire person, nine times out of 10, if you ain't talking to Flash, you ain't talking to Herk, you ain't talking to Bam, you got secondhand information. And you got to realize you ain't talking to bam you got secondhand information and and you

got to realize you're feeding the babies incomplete information and this is one of the reasons why because i tour 150 countries a year so financially i'm good i'm cutting all that in half because i gotta go to these universities i gotta go to these ymcas and i gotta teach these babies of where this thing come from because what saddens me is this. If you are from a black family, you know who Miles Davis is. If you're from a white family, you know who the Rolling Stones is. Why is there so much of a blur of who, what, and why, where, and how when it comes to hip-hop?

Why is that? I think we got to be the generation to do that. Because to your point, if you're 60 years old now, you're probably a grandfather, grandmother. Our grandparents weren't listening to hip hop, you know? Okay. But now when you got grandparents and grandfathers, grandparents who were listening to hip hop and then parents who grew up in hip hop, they can tell their kids, hey, this is where it

started. Right. Because like you said, most, if you, if you're in the age of 40 to 50, a lot of them, hip hop started with Run DMC. Right. LL DMC. Right. LL Cool J. Yes. That's where it started from.

Because even me, my parents weren't into hip hop, but I was. But the first record I ever bought was Run. Yeah, my dad was 70-something. He didn't like hip hop at the time. He was like, you need to listen to James Brown.

Temptations. James Brown was the original rapper. Four Tops. He rhyming. Okay. He didn't know nothing about hip hop. He didn't want to hear none of that. Correct.

You know? Well, I think for me, and this is such a wonderful time period, but just think of it like this here. And, you know, sometimes this makes me want to cry sometimes is come August, like the mayor gave me August 4th and Kool Herc is August 11th. Come August 12th, there's going to be a brand new trend. So we have to get it right now as a black art form that has done so much for so many people. Of course. We have to get it right between now and August 11th, or it's going to go down in history incomplete or incorrect.

And that scares the crap out of me. So it's safe to say you don't believe the DJ gets the respect they should when it comes to their contribution Absolutely not. Because especially the hip hop DJ that understands

the quick mixed theory and the mechanics which I will show you is because that led to the sampling and that led to these records being made and that's what

we're celebrating. So we're celebrating the entire cake but let's go back and celebrate the eggs and the flour and the water and the vanilla. How the cake was made. The process.

The process. Flash, you know, of course, you know, they talk about Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, you know, produced the message. First DJ to get a Grammy, by the way. Yes, but I read some things where they said you had nothing to do with the production of it. Okay. I had something to do with all of it because that company chased me to get my group. The Furious Five. The whole group. Gotcha. There was a club I played called Disco Fever.

And I brought hip hop to this club. And Sal Abatello gave me, I wanted a Saturday. He gave me a Tuesday. Of course. So what? Most clubs do that. He gave me, I called it Ter gave me a Tuesday of course so what most clubs do that gave me I called it terrible Tuesday off night right but in about two months time came the one I was why when did this Saturday Thank You Sal you know

so for me the message probably I had least to do with but I had most to do with it because it was my group and I'm sure they use your technique right yeah they do they use my technique to make all their records the message was an original record but they knew when they had the sugar hill gang they heard of us in the streets the streets was already ringing grandmaster flash and inferior is five so she used to come to terrible tuesdays every tuesday just to see how it was going down. Who is she? Sylvia Robinson. Sylvia Robinson, okay.

Owner of Sugar Hill. Did I have anything to do with that record? Minimal. But I had everything to do with it because she needed to have us. Here we are. I want to ask one more question. How do you feel about DJs today with the auto mixingmixing buttons

and the different programs that make it easy for them to call themselves DJs? I'm using Serato right now. Or even CDJs. Right. And you know what it is? Put it this way.

I'm a scientist first. I'm a geek first. So I've been pushing that envelope for 52 years. So I respect anybody that's doing it, but follow the laws of the art.

Transition. I think the things that drive me crazy when I go out, which is every now and then, MVs, you know, I'm listening to the DJ and the train wreck thing. That there really drives me crazy. A lot of today's music is really one tempo bass, so it's easy to go from one to the other. So how you crashing this record into this record with us back we had to use the pitch quite a bit to make this record beat match with this record of course these records here are almost coming out of the oven they're all the same tempo almost so i don't understand why is it that these people who play today don't beat match that there makes me totally crazy and it goes against the laws of what we learned okay grandmaster flash grandmaster flash ladies and gentlemen make sure

you follow them on instagram all socials at dj flash forever on all socials dj flash forever and can you just turn around i just want to read the back of your hoodie man yeah because the hoodie is monumental says the first dj to make the turntable an instrument. First DJ to have a rapper. First DJ to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. First DJ to be on SiriusXM. First DJ to get a Grammy. First DJ to get a Polar Prize.

Grandmaster Flash. And the first DJ to give a history lesson about DJing on The Breakfast Club. That's right. Grandmaster Flash, ladies and gentlemen. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is's right. Grandmaster Flash, ladies and gentlemen. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. 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. 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it.

I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.

I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan-Stan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.

That didn't happen, but you want that to happen. No. That's exactly what you want, but I am glad that this is the last show of the year. Thank you to all of our listeners for riding with us all year, especially in New York City, we were number one, 1834, 1849, number 225, 54, I think number 125 to 54 won.

Thank y'all, man. We appreciate you. We've been around for 14 years and for whatever reason, y'all still choose to rock with us. We appreciate that. Absolutely. We don't overlook it and we thank God for everything, man. We really appreciate it. We love y'all. We give God praise for it all. We thank God for it all, man. Grat't overlook it, and we thank God for everything, man. We really appreciate it. We love you. We give God praise for it all. We thank God for it all, man.

Gratitude is absolutely, positively my attitude, and that is my positive note. Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others. If you aren't grateful for what you have, you will not get blessed with more. Don't be looking at what other people are doing or what other people got. Sometimes your own food will get cold because you're too busy looking at somebody else's plate. Be thankful for what God has given you. All right? Y'all have a great Christmas and Hanukkah and Kwanzaa and New Year.

I think Hanukkah was over yesterday. Oh, I'm sorry. I hope y'all had a great Hanukkah. Kwanzaa. And I'm going to get my vasectomy consultation right now. Let's go. No, we're going together. No, we're not.

Yeah, we have the consultation. We're going together. No, we're not. Oh, I know what I'm saying. No, we're not. You want more kids? No. You don't?

Okay. But I don't want to snip snip because if something happens in the world and you got to procreate for the world, then you ain't going to have it. That is the dumbest thing. Why do people say that? I don't know.

You watch too many movies, man. I am a legend. If something like that happens. What make you think you going to live? You know what I'm saying? What make you think you going to survive? That you going to be here? Because I'm the big superhero.
