Starting point is 00:03:45 Big Ida. Dropping a coupon for Ida Rodriguez. We're here. Yes, right. How you feeling? How's your second day waking up so damn early? I feel good. I have really bad allergies.
Starting point is 00:03:56 My eyes are swollen. I eat gluten. And I'm paying the handsome price for it. But I'm good. I woke up today. I feel blessed. That's it. See, people see gluten-free and they ignore it.
Starting point is 00:04:06 I don't know what gluten is either, but clearly it has some type of impact on you. I have no idea what gluten is. So what is gluten? It's wheat. You know what? It exists here in Europe. They don't put it in their stuff. What's legal and normal here
Starting point is 00:04:21 is not in other places in the world and people don't have the illnesses and the allergies that we have. I still don't know what gluten is, but I'm going to rock with you. It's what? Wheat. Oh, wheat. Okay, wheat. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:32 All right, I see gluten-free, but I never knew what it meant. Yeah, it means. You probably thought you was getting a discount, didn't you? No. You're like, oh, the gluten's free? Gluten's free. I'm about two. No, I had no idea what gluten was.
Starting point is 00:04:42 But good morning. Yesterday, I had to go to the bank and do some things. I was on vacation, and when I go on vacation, I take everything out the crib and put it in safety deposit boxes. So I was going to the bank, and as I was there, a lady walked in, and she was very upset. Why was she upset? White lady.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Oh, the white lady? Yeah, white lady. Oh, the white lady get upset, the world listens. Right, so when she walked in and she was getting upset, I wasn't getting nervous because she was talking very loud and everything that's been going on in the world i said i just never know even though it wasn't the typical because usually you know when a shooter is usually older white male so i was a little you know still watching them right and she was mad at the bank because she said the bank supports
Starting point is 00:05:20 lgbtq plus how would you know that i mean the bank supports everybody it's the bank i guess you got money the bank supports you i guess i guess maybe the bank put out a statement or maybe the bank had a flag i don't know why i'm not gonna tell you okay but um yeah so she was mad right and she said she took all her money out because she said the bank supported trans and she said transactions no not transaction No, not transactions. What? Trans people. Oh. And she was like,
Starting point is 00:05:48 that's disrespectful to women and how dare you? They weren't born with vaginas and because of that, I'm taking all my money out. And that lady took every last dime out. What bank? I mean, I've never seen a bank...
Starting point is 00:06:00 Banks are banks. Like, I've never seen... Like, banks don't cater to people. Like, do they? I guess maybe they support certain causes we support this or we support
Starting point is 00:06:07 that like you know certain organizations or platforms like you look and you say Chick-fil-A supports this or McDonald's supports that
Starting point is 00:06:13 but I guess the bank supports you gotta tell me the name of the bank off the air so I can look it up it's in our town that's vague
Starting point is 00:06:20 what does that mean alright I was thinking myself she was that concerned with the bank supporter that she took all her money out. Wow. Okay. It's fascinating, right?
Starting point is 00:06:31 Don't you think that's, that's interesting? Not too far. Like just because the bank supports. Is that too far? LGBTQ rights. I don't, I don't agree with it, but I can't say it's too far for her. You know what I mean? If that's the way she felt, if there was something that I had my money in and they supported the cause, I may not agree with.
Starting point is 00:06:49 I would pull my money. So I can't say it's too far. I want to know what bank she's going to go to where they say, we don't take trans money. Right. We don't do transactions. We don't do trans. It makes sense. But she was hot.
Starting point is 00:07:02 And I was interested. I almost recorded it, but But I I don't believe you To be honest with you I just want context If you leave a big part Of the story No there was no big part That was it

Starting point is 00:07:20 Out this week We're gonna be talking To him He has his first Number one record So we'll talk to him About that And up next We got front page news So don't move tesla figaro will be joining us
Starting point is 00:07:28 it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we got our co-host ida rodriguez here and let's get in some front page news of course tesla figaro is with us good morning morning, Tez. Good morning, everybody. The hood whisperer, Tezlyn Figueroa. Yes, yes, yes. Now, yesterday started the NBA play-in tournament. So just to give you some quick highlights, the Hawks beat the Heat 116-105 and the Lakers beat the Timberwolves 108-102 in overtime. Y'all watched the Hawks-Heat game.
Starting point is 00:08:00 I didn't stay up for the Lakers-Timberwolves game. Yeah, I didn't stay up for that game either. All right, now let's talk about this Ebony Alert bill. What's going on with that, Tess? Yes, you know, we cover a lot on what politicians get wrong. So I thought this was a good story to talk about one of the quick things that they're doing that is right. And I immediately thought about you guys when you interviewed Erica Alexander and Finding Tamika. So a California senator has proposed a new bill aimed at alerting the public about missing black women and children whose cases are disproportionately underreported.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Now, the Ebony Alert system would circulate urgent information about black women or young people between the ages of 12 and 25 who have gone missing. The bill's introduction comes at a time when black children comprise 38 percent of missing youth nationwide. Now, these children are disproportionately classified as runaways, making their case less likely to be given public attention through the amber or silver alerts, according to the Black and Missing Foundation. So according to data by Research in Action, over 60,000 black women are missing nationwide. And they believe that this will help bring some of our women and children home. I like that. That's very specific to black women. And I also wonder, like, what makes those alerts go off? Right.
Starting point is 00:09:16 Because I don't get Amber alerts like I used to. Not anymore. But even when I used to get them, it would only be like once every couple of months. But you hear about as many missing women, just people, children it is out there. You would think you would get them a lot more often. I think it's in the area that you're at. So if there's a person missing in your area, that's when they put it out. So if somebody's missing in New York City and you're in Jersey, it's not going to hit your phone. But if you're in that part of Jersey, it hits where it would be.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Because it says, be on the lookout for a gray Honda with license plate this, that, and the other traveling through New Jersey. What sets it off? Was there a number to call? Or did the authority do that? Yeah, well, they have to report the person, number one. One of the issues is actually reporting the person missing. And then hopefully the police department will take them serious. That's what they're talking about a lot of times.
Starting point is 00:10:04 They say, oh, it's just a runaway know, give it 24 hours, get it 48 hours. So there's a lot of determent that you see, in particular, when you talk about, you know, black women and black children that they think, you know, maybe this person just come back. So a lot of that is involved in the process. And that's what they're talking about here in the research and action study. I love it. I think we should also address the language that they use when they call people runaways. We have to call victims of human trafficking victims because they call them prostitutes or they'll say that they're volunteering.
Starting point is 00:10:36 And there's a whole process that goes into how someone ends up on the street as a prostitute. The grooming and all of that stuff and I think this is going to be very helpful thank God for social media because of social media we do share people of color, black children missing women, indigenous women
Starting point is 00:10:56 and a lot of people have been recovered because we have been doing the work that law enforcement hasn't been doing what's going on with d.a bragg tess yes uh the new york prosecutor who is pursuing criminal charges against former president trump says a republican-led congressional committee is trying to interfere with his case manhattan district attorney alvin bragg alleges that an unconstitutional attempt to undermine his investigation so now he is suing jim jordan the republican chairman of the
Starting point is 00:11:25 house judiciary committee for what he said so for what he says as jordan's attempt to influence an active new york state prosecution now bragg says that jordan has launched a campaign to intimidate and attack him and that jordan is demanding confidential documents that are highly sensitive and belong to local prosecutors in the he goes on to say that a supreme court precedents uh for jordan uh a member of congress congress to demand those documents man alvin bragg dropping his nuts ain't he alvin bragg ain't playing boy that's why he better hope and pray donald trump don't become president in 2024 because when donald trump start locking up his political opponents if he becomes president again alvin Bragg ain't playing, boy. That's why he better hope and pray Donald Trump don't become president in 2024. Because when Donald Trump starts locking up his political opponents, if he becomes president again, Alvin Bragg going to be high on that list.

On my podcast, A Slight Change of
Starting point is 00:22:45 Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture. That something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you

Starting point is 00:29:17 against black people he's against all things not named trump there is a difference that's not what i would bet on steven i wouldn't bet on that one tell that to people to the people he discriminated against uh in regard to housing yeah i wouldn't i wouldn't bet on that one i'm tired of hearing people of color and black people saying that somebody's not racist because they're their friend you know or they're married to one or you can be racist and have black children you can be racist and be married to a black person you can be racist and take pictures with rappers yeah it happens i'm not i wouldn't bet on that one steven a uh and lastly we got to talk about charlamagne's uh cousin chloe bailey that is my cousin yeah she released an album it's called in In Pieces. It sold 10,000 units.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Fans took the social media like crazy, and they were blaming Beyonce. I don't have another song to sing. I just wanted to say hi again because I couldn't let go of this feeling. Make sure you all are supporting the motherfucking album. Fucking fuck. Everybody got a fucking say, and they can kiss my black ass. That was last night in Chicago. Man, that was last night in Chicago. Yeah, that was last night in Chicago.
Starting point is 00:30:27 WGCI, WGCI. Yep. I mean, listen, man, 10,000 records the first week. This whole thing is not a sprint. It's a marathon. You know what I mean? So you might sell 10,000 records in your first week, but then, you know, this time next year, you might have a gold or platinum project, you know?
Starting point is 00:30:40 In six months, you might have a gold or platinum project. So, you know, you got to keep working. That's all. Yeah, people were blaming Beyoncé, Beyonce saying Beyonce didn't post about it on her social media she didn't talk about it she didn't promote it because she is signed to Beyonce uh and they even said something like you know she's uh not even opening up for Beyonce's tour but I don't think anybody's been announced uh any opening on Beyonce's tour as of yet so we don't know that but never known Beyonce to have openness yeah but but beyonce is not like
Starting point is 00:31:05 hired to do promotions i mean but she signed to beyonce i mean i mean but beyonce's page is beyonce as it always has been but you know tiffany didn't post my special on her on her page and she produced it and she gave it to me really yeah it's your job to really yes your job to go out and promote your stuff i didn't take it personal job to go out and promote your stuff. I didn't take it personal. I mean, she was promoting her own stuff. I think you should promote your people's stuff like it's your own. I know. I mean, especially if you're all in partnership together, especially if y'all got if y'all
Starting point is 00:31:35 doing business together. Yeah. I think that comes with it. You should absolutely post. That's part of the reason why I don't know why you did to deal with Tiffany, but I'm sure that's part of the reason why Chloe might have probably signed to Beyonce because she felt like I'm signing to one of the biggest why i don't know why you you did the deal with tiffany but i'm sure that's part of the reason why chloe might have probably signed to beyonce because she felt like i'm signing to one of the biggest artists ever she can guide me you know her career is so successful and when it comes to promote i can do that that's the last a lot of reasons why you know even with my real
Starting point is 00:31:56 estate deal i went with 50 because i know 50 is a he's a marketer he's a promoter that's right he's gonna stand on he's gonna make sure that he supports me. So that was part of the reason. And of course, because he's my friend. But I know he was going to do that for me. And by the way, people like Fifth, I give two people a lot of credit, 50 Cent and Rick Ross. They support even when it's not stuff that they're into. I've seen 50's posted pictures of him reading my books. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:32:19 He don't have to do that. Me and 50 don't got no business together. So yeah, I do think it's kind of strange when you're in partnership with somebody and they don't have to do that like me and 50 don't got no business together so yeah i do think it's kind of strange when uh you're in partnership with somebody and they don't promote because they kind of taking money out their own pocket too yes but does i mean i've never does beyonce post anything other than beyonce though and i'm not trying to be funny but that's kind of her brand she's one of one she's the only one yeah baby she posts ivy park when she does her ivy park deals and releases uh she promotes things that she does i think maybe she posts Ivy Park When she does her Ivy Park deals And releases She promotes things That she does
Starting point is 00:32:46 I think Then she posts The Cartier thing When they did The Tiffany deal Or one of those Deals that she did I don't remember
Starting point is 00:32:52 Her and Jay Yeah but that's her The most expensive Necklace and stuff like that And her family I mean I think Khloe is in the sweet spot Whether she sold
Starting point is 00:33:00 10,000 records or not She's in Swarm She has a movie right now That came out Her name is in people's mouths. Hell, let me post Chloe's album. Yeah, you can post it. That's your cousin, right?

We got our guest co-host Ida Rodriguez here, and it's time for some front page news. Now, the NBA is in the playing tournament, just so you guys are aware. The Hawks beat the Heat
Starting point is 00:34:25 last night, 116-105, and the Lakers beat the Timberwolves, 108-102. Alright, and we got Teslin Figueroa here. Now, what's up, Tess? What's going on, family? The hood whisperer, Teslin Figueroa, what's happening? Yep, yep, yep. Now, let's talk about what's going on with the cartel.
Starting point is 00:34:42 Somebody stole some money from the cartel? Yeah, somebody stole some money and bragged about the money that he stole from the cartel. He's a fool. Right. A Texas man named Eric Ramirez was caught bragging about how he stole $50,000 from a Mexican drug cartel. Less than two hours later, Ramirez was kidnapped by a group of armed men from a house in southern Texas. Is that Charlamagne laughing? That was me. I'm sorry. That was me laughing. I love this story.
Starting point is 00:35:09 You brag. Two hours later. Goodness gracious. This probably should be in Donkey of the Day. But, you know, something happened to the guy. So let's pretend like we got some sympathy. At least he'll get to the end. You're right. Okay, so from a house in southern Texas and taken to Mexico.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Now, witnesses overheard Ramirez bragging on a phone call to an unknown woman, who obviously told, about stealing money from the cartel when he was at a house party in Texas on March 23rd. Now, just after midnight on March 24th, two or three masked men arrived at the party in a blue Dodge pickup truck, grabbed and assaulted Ramirez and forced him into the truck. About one hour later, the truck crossed into Mexico and the video footage shows a man with a bloodied face trying to flee the vehicle while he was still in motion. He was pulled back inside the car, according to the affidavit. Now, one of the kidnappers drove the truck back over the U.S. border. So he was arrested. But as of now, they have not found the other kidnappers. And Ramirez has not been found as well.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Wow. See, you laughing? You gonna laugh now? I mean, he's stupid. You steal money from the cartel and then you gonna brag about it? What do you expect that's gonna happen? Yeah, I don't understand that. Especially bragging just to one person.
Starting point is 00:36:26 In this age of social media, if you're going to brag about it, get on the ground. No, don't do that. Please get some likes for it. Not do it being there. Get some retweets for it. You know what I mean? Subscribe now. Like, they call the cartel for a reason.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Thumbs up, thumbs up. Word. Like, they call the cartel for a reason. You just call. I'm just saying. Why show off to one person? You know what? You crazy.
Starting point is 00:36:43 We could use them to help us recover some of these missing people. The cartel, right? You ain't lying. Why are they out there finding people? Cartel on play. I don't think people really understand. And they have rules. I mean, as you saw with the people who were killed, that they turned those people in because they have rules and they follow the rules.
Starting point is 00:37:03 The cartel, those of us who are Latino descent understand how they operate and they do. They have rules. They don't play. And shouldn't you go right to the woman in a situation like that? Because clearly the woman is the person who called the cartel on him, right? So the woman got all information. Don't you just go get her and make her flip? And then you could probably get right to the cartel.
Starting point is 00:37:21 I doubt she'll flip on the cartel. I thought there would be a sensitive i thought you guys would be sensitive with that story so i feel sorry for him yeah i mean that f around and find out you ain't lying you ain't lying yeah nope all right now what else we talking about uh new michigan gop chair what happened yes yes uh the first black chair of the michigan gop christian camaro a devout christian is facing backlash for framing most things outside of her worldview as a direct result of satanism condemning everything from yoga which she called a satanic ritual i didn't know that uh to popular musicians, to Democrats as evil. She has accused music stars like Beyonce, Jay-Z and Cardi B as tools of Satan.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Take a listen to what she said about Beyonce. She's really targeting, trying to target black people into embracing paganism. And one of the really interesting things is that her husband, Jay-Z, is many people have said is a Satanist. I believe it to be true. Where do people come up with these theories, man? Like, how? The internet. The internet.
Starting point is 00:38:31 It's like, I don't even know what that means. When she said that, when she said Beyonce the paganist, she tried to bring people into paganism. The thing is that Satanism, like by definition, the people who are Satanists, they are not the people, they're not the horrible people that people think they are those satanist cult people were in dc fighting for black lives matter because we covered it on tyt and they were like fighting for the rights of for black people
Starting point is 00:38:57 to live to be able to exist they are they don't it's it's not like uh they're not doing rituals i think people get it confused not that i'm endorsing satanism right but she you know what i mean she knows it's funny you said that because she made that comparison she said that yeah they're satanist and because they supported black lives matter she said that black lives matters is satanist as well so she actually you know she actually brought that up she also said that up. She also said that Cardi B was a tool of Lucifer Because she peddles filth in the culture and that Ariana Grande and Billie Eilish Put children under satanic delusion She also said that the sexual revolution was a well thought-out orchestrated plan by Satan
Starting point is 00:39:40 So bottom line is we are all going to hell. Why is she listening to secular music anyway? She shouldn't be listening to no damn secular music. She know all the artists. Yes, go listen to gospel or something. Why are you worried about what we listening to over here? Why do you know so much about secular music, man? I see a lot of people who are so obsessed with Beyonce. They jealous of her.
Starting point is 00:39:58 It is so unbelievable. They just want tickets. If you want tickets, just say so. What they hoping is going to happen is that Beyonce or Jay-Z going to be upset enough to invite some of these people to come talk to them and have a conversation they're trying to get free tickets to the concert that's what's trying that's what's happening the sexual revolution is actually what uh america needs because being so uptight about sex is what has so many people committing such horrific acts sexual acts because they are they are what do you
Starting point is 00:40:26 call it what's the word they are so suppressed in this in this country and religion is always used as a tool these people didn't need don't read the bible and the way the bible rose especially if you marry the bible says what that america the married bed is should not be defiled maybe if some of y'all were having more sex you wouldn't be so uptight and you wouldn't be going around. Defile your bed. You posted defile your bed. Your wife wants you to defile your bed. Your husband wants you to defile your bed.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Defile your bed. Nice and filthy. Yeah. Jesus. Especially if your wife grew up in the freaknik era. Okay? She may not want to go to freaknik no more, but she still want to get her freak on. There you go.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Yeah. All right. Well, thank you, Ms. Taz. We appreciate you. We'll see you tomorrow. And listen, man, make sure y'all subscribe to Teslin Figaro's podcast, The Scrape Shot No Chaser podcast on the Black Effect Podcast Network. And Teslin will be in Atlanta at the Black Effect Podcast Festival.
Starting point is 00:41:21 All right. When we come back, NLE Chapa will be joining us. He has a new project out this week and he had his first number one record a couple of weeks ago. So, NLE Chopper, when we come back, it's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That's where you grew up. Yeah. If you're having like some mental or emotional issues, sometimes it's good to tap back in for your foundation.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah, for sure. I feel like that would cause you to make the best music. Yeah, it's like a rebirth. Yeah. So I feel like I had a rebirth, and so the birthplace. So it's just all went in alignment with each other. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Now, you're from Memphis. Yes, sir. Now, are you tapped into everything that's going on with Memphis, with the two brothers that got expelled and all that? Actually, I know the... What's his name? Pearson. Mr. Pearson. Justin? He was just up here yesterday. Yeah, he was. He said he don't like your music.
Starting point is 00:42:11 For real? No, he didn't say that. He didn't say that. He didn't say that. No, I know Justin Pearson. We do this thing called Black Man Crown in Memphis where we pretty much congratulate black men and
Starting point is 00:42:25 um i've always been like a charitable person towards their cause like you know helping um kids go to college um putting money on like scholarships talking to the kids that go and um one time he was there and he got crowned for something and um the way he spoke he was a great at speaking i was like yo he remind me like Malcolm X he give me like those type of vibes like he really
Starting point is 00:42:48 you could tell he wants to really stand for something you know ever since then I had the utmost respect for him so he been tapped
Starting point is 00:42:55 into the community yeah yeah yeah he's been doing like around the city so yeah man they're really fighting for gun control so you know
Starting point is 00:43:02 you being from Memphis and you know we seeing so many deaths with the mass shooting and so many brothers losing their lives. So what is your feeling on the gun control in Memphis? Because, you know, they're trying to ban assault rifles. So what's your feeling on the killings and the murderings? And do you think it's due to the guns? Because you're from there.
Starting point is 00:43:22 You're from the city, you know? It's another thing with that, you know, another thing as far as like with the Black Man Crown thing, we also hold town meetings, town hall meetings with the kids to where we talk about like gun violence, car thefts,
Starting point is 00:43:34 and all of these things. So it is extremely important. But I feel like the thing of the nature is how accessible they make it. And like, oh, you don't have to have ID. You just need to be 18 and you can get a gun or you just have to be 21 and get a pistol on 18 to get a assault rifle i feel like how accessible things are getting now to where it's not making it hard for us to to be accessible to these guns i feel like that's what makes it wrong
Starting point is 00:44:01 because i feel like we already have a problem you you know. It's already a problem at hand. Memphis is, everyone knows Memphis. It's like one of, it's Myrtle Capital every other year, every two years or whatever. So, you know, I feel them on all these things, you know. So what got you? What reached you? What made you be like, man, I really got to do the internal work on myself? Man, God, he was just coming to me.
Starting point is 00:44:23 And, you know, God come to you as you, you know. He come to you in so many different ways he could come to you through a simple sweet he could come to you through through simple dreams he could come to you through um a person just trying to get your head on and um it was like a lot of things for me you know first the dreams you know i was waking up cold sweat and like shook out my dreams by some and um the dreams I was having was either like leading down the road to death or jail with the things I was doing and I was already had everything I wanted and I was still you know entertaining negativity and reverting back to those type of ways so within that process I just realized okay I need to make a change and if I don't you know he showed me the two unconscious contracts I was signing there for jail so in that process I started to work on me
Starting point is 00:45:10 you know get my mental health right um start to meditate um change my diet I stopped doing drugs and I changed the people that was around me and got back strong on prayer were you ever nervous it was going to affect your music like you know you hear sometimes when people stop using drugs they feel like that's what's making them hot or that's making the songs dope or if they stop talking about a certain thing they feel like their fans or leave them did you ever have that fear um i had i didn't have the fear but it kind of happened to me along the lines like when i when i was like promoting a more positive message it was like a lot of my core fans will walk but um i still get a lot of fans that come to me and be like yo the spirit the spiritual songs you make is like yo it touched
Starting point is 00:45:52 me it really moved me it changed my life so i feel like that was the purpose of it you know i'm saying to be able to put something out and have somebody to say that about it you know i'm saying and then still in the process with the drug use is like man we we humans where we supposed to go through things and I feel like whatever we praying for is whatever we pray for God is going to send that storm your way and depending on how big the thing you praying for us how hard it'll be and I feel like that's what I did understand you know I was praying to God like I want to be this I want to be that person but um he was sending me the storms i wanted to smoke it out smoke it away or pop a perk away um weed is from the earth god created weed i don't know about
Starting point is 00:46:36 the perks but i mean like i think everything has its flaws when you overuse it you know i was over smoking so like that being said man i just i just love to be in tune with just my own emotions and just my sober mind because i know like okay i'm going through things for a reason this is gonna make me stronger and you were able to stop cold turkey yeah for sure how long you know your artist about two two years okay okay how did y'all meet how we meet i i came across his song on youtube it It was called Shaquille O'Neal. And I remember hearing his voice. And I kid y'all not, if y'all take the time out and listen to his music,
Starting point is 00:47:13 he got like a one-of-a-kind voice that's extremely unique. And I remember I was like, bro, I got to reach out to him. And I just gravitated towards him because I felt he had a story to tell. And it just became real relatable because I feel everyone has a story to tell, no matter what you've been through with something. I was like, bro, you can be one of the biggest rap stars out here. And that's what got it down in my mind. Like, music, he make, you know what I'm saying, out of his world. And the pressure from where you from, people were like, man, you know, I thought your album was coming out, you know. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. But I try not. Now, I try not to hold myself to other people's expectations
Starting point is 00:48:08 because that's where I was so stuck at. And that's where a lot of people my age be stuck at, at the stuff we be doing. And you ain't even got to be rapping. It's just now, in the generation now, everybody my age want to be rich. No matter what they doing. If it's gang life, street life, or whatever, everybody want to be rich. And a what they doing if it's gang life screw life or whatever
Starting point is 00:48:25 everybody want to be rich and a lot of people waiting on their Maybach just to say they riding in it with you you know what I'm saying so sometimes
Starting point is 00:48:33 I feel like God give us the biggest blessings when we let go of it because it be people like that you know what I'm saying like when this happen
Starting point is 00:48:40 or when you gonna get this and they'll be the main ones once you do get it mess it all up for you that's right so God really sometimes he has separates you isolates you to where certain things are cleared out so he can give you what he was holding because you know if he gave it to you during that time you'll mess it up that's real all right we got

I was in shock because, you know, you grow up. It's funny because how God, like, showed me my whole future before I even, you know, got here. Everybody, like, I met, you know, I got a picture with Rick Ross. I was, like, 10 in the airport with him. Like, it's a lot of different things. Like, he always put in front of my face my peers.
Starting point is 00:51:06 And I grew up watching Wayne and Maren, how he was always himself. creativity the music the tattoos grills jewelry whatever you know you look up to certain people like that and um to be able to have a song with them it's like a full circle moment so you know i wrote him i wrote him a um like a poem and um well not even a poem just a letter of appreciation. What did it say, man? What did it say? It was pretty much like... Did it rhyme? No, no, no. That's why I said it wasn't a poem. It rhymed out of a poem, bro.
Starting point is 00:51:34 No, it was like, you know, I was just pretty much saying, thank you, bro, for being an influence on my life and inspiration, you know. I said, there's three people that has always moved me. That's been Kobe. That's Kobe. Kobe, it was Kobe, Tupac, and you, and Wayne, you know, besides my parents and whatnot. And just pretty much letting them know that and physically giving them flowers because everybody talk about giving people flowers,
Starting point is 00:51:57 but don't nobody want to do it until they on top of your casket. And that's what I don't respect. So I just was giving the energy I, you know, want to receive from people as well. What was the reaction off camera? I mean, we saw the reaction on camera, but I'm just joking. He seemed really touched by that. He was extremely touched. You got to think, like, Wayne, like, people embrace Wayne,
Starting point is 00:52:15 but I don't think they embrace him on a statue he should be embraced on. You know what I'm saying? He the greatest. When it come to music, when it come to flow, when it come to, you know what I'm saying? He the when it come to music when it come to flow when it come to you know what I'm saying he the greatest and we gotta give him that so I feel like
Starting point is 00:52:29 with him with him knowing it was Gene when it really touched him and moved him and after the fact like you know he signed the skateboard
Starting point is 00:52:35 for me and we swapped numbers and now he's like a mentor to me he big bro that's dope yeah I started I mean I've always
Starting point is 00:52:41 respected Wayne right you know what I mean there was a period where I thought you know the music was a little lackluster, but forget all of that. You've got to put
Starting point is 00:52:48 Wayne top three. At least some more. If you're being objective and you're looking at the whole resume, you've got to put him top three. Envy don't think so. What's your thing, Envy? Envy thinks that Descent got a better catalog than Lil Wayne. I didn't say that.
Starting point is 00:53:04 That is actually exactly what you said. I didn't say that. That's exactly what you said. That is actually exactly what you said. I did not say that. I agree. I think Wayne is top five, right? And the reason I say top five, because you always got to put Jay. I always put Biggie and Pac, because I think they're nicest. I think Wayne is in there as well.
Starting point is 00:53:19 So I think he's in that top four category. You can pick and choose where you put the people, but in that top four, I would put those four. I feel like it's sometimes too as well, like what are we really judging it on as well? Because me,
Starting point is 00:53:32 me, Pac is my favorite rapper because, you know, who he was as a person, you know what I'm saying? And then, you know,
Starting point is 00:53:38 after that comes Wayne and me. But Pac is, you know, who he was day to day, who he stood for. I feel like that's deeper than music. That's purpose. But I feel like that's deeper than music. That's purpose.
Starting point is 00:53:46 But I feel like if we talking like music, which is, I ain't going to lie, Wayne had killed anybody on the beat. Wayne had a tremendous run from 12 to, like, 12 to now. So I feel like, man, I put him number one there. And then when people say Jay jay is arguable as well because he had a run but not only did he have run he he done made three billionaires around him but that's why jay got to be number one because i put wayne because of music and influence yeah i put jay because of music and influence but then i put both of them for who they inspired and who
Starting point is 00:54:20 to what your point what you just said absolutely who else they put on. Yeah. Right? So Jay influenced Wayne. But then also, you got to peep though, Wayne, Drake, That's what I'm saying. Nicky. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:54:33 He's up there. You know, you could pick and choose what top four, but now we had a conversation about versus. That's what the conversation was about.
Starting point is 00:54:40 And I said, if you put versus, meaning songs versus songs and depending on how they felt the culture, I think 50 gives him a run for his money. That's my opinion. That's not what they said. I said, I think 50.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Then when New Yorkers was like, he'll wash Wayne. I never said wash. Run for the money is different than wash Wayne. I never said wash. No. You ever heard wash out my mouth? I said 50. I never said pause.
Starting point is 00:54:59 Yo, yo, I'll pay for that verses, though. The reason I say that is because They both have songs that are cultural, but I also feel like some songs like that that Charlamagne talks about, I don't think necessarily the world. They don't realize that 60% of all New Yorkers don't realize. 60% of all black people live in the South. The South is the heart and soul of black America. So it don't matter what they don't know in this bubble.
Starting point is 00:55:24 I got my list here. I keep the list here just in case. what they don't know in this bummer. I got my list. I keep the list here just in case. Just in case when it goes on this tangent, I got my list here just in case. But, bro, I'm going to be honest. It's fair to say that, though, you know, because, and it's two different type of songs you would be matching up. Like, I feel like 50 had, like, a lot more radio type of hits. That's right. So it would be more easier to sing along a
Starting point is 00:55:45 lot more club records too but but that that's my point but when in that when you go into verses sometimes that matters yeah mixtape wayne was different people was doing mixtape wayne songs like they was that the records man yo the dedication the dedication one two three four five you gotta pick 20 songs and we all know we watch verses it's the songs you pick and how you do it but way Wayne, Wayne. I'm going to be honest. I'm going to show you after. I'm going to show you after.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Because, see, we have a young lady. Her name is Nala. She's coming up this week, and we're going to do a battle. She's going to pick 7 Wayne. I'm going to pick 750. So I got mine waiting for her, just ready to just boom, just bomb. So that's why this is here. So I can't tell you what these songs are until she comes.
Starting point is 00:56:22 All right. But anyway. We're going to do the battle. We're going to do the battle later on. Somebody said that when Ja Morant got suspended from Poway, you had a Poway deal? No, no. I didn't have a deal. They used my song with the commercial.
Starting point is 00:56:35 And somebody said they stopped using it after Ja? So what happened was they paused the commercial for like a few days. And then they took Ja Morant out and implemented a whole new commercial and um still use the song so it's still live it still plays it was playing all through march madness they just kind of moved it around how do you feel about that situation man i was i was good i i didn't i didn't too much care because i was like okay this situation bigger than me it's about what bro can learn from it you know i wasn I wasn't finna be the person like, man, he messed it up for me.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Like, you know what I'm saying? It was bigger than that. You know, he learned his lesson, I'm pretty sure. And he knows, you know, how to move accordingly now. And that's all I really cared about, you know, is him making sure he was good. I didn't too much care about just, like, what opportunity I missed, because it was still there, you know?
Starting point is 00:57:24 All right, we got more with NLE Chopper. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.

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.

Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist who studies human behavior. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better.
Starting point is 01:01:55 At night I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was, and I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture, that something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure.

No. Don't let him walk you down that line.
Starting point is 01:05:18 No. What I wanted to do was, like me, I like to add something to laugh about. But, you know know truth than jokes like i just feel it's normalized things to be so so pretty and so so so light-skinned and just so white sometimes to where we forget about where we really come from you know don't use them words together you said pretty and light-skinned and white like dark and pretty no no i'm saying no no i'm saying that's what that's what's normalized you know i'm saying it's not that's the standard it's not normalized to really embrace the culture where we come from because man if it's where we come from bro that's how
Starting point is 01:05:56 that's how it is you know i'm saying all of those things i explained that's that's what that's how it is that's what we that's what i was looking at Those were the baddest women to me when I was coming up. And I still value those women. Everybody, when you see these music videos, it's all the fake body. It's very colorized a lot of the times. I was just showing love to the real. That's what I felt.

Starting point is 01:11:13 Throw my hat, sit. Throw my hat, sit. Roll out a name or you gossip. What you doing? Chatty hat. I don't gossip. This is the rule of the floor. I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club.

On The Breakfast Club. Come on now. You can't just do that to me now. You got to tell me where we going. You're about to get us both in trouble now. I said, Pussycat Dolls, what's wrong with you? You remember the group Pussycat Dolls, right?
Starting point is 01:11:33 I do, I do. Nicole Scherzer. Nicole Scherzer. And Kaya Jones, I think, was one of the members as well. You remember the Pussycat Dolls? Play a Pussycat song. Yeah, we remember Pussycat Dolls. You don't play Dolce?
Starting point is 01:11:42 It sounds like a Betty Wright song. Dolce, Dolce. Do you know any other Pussycat Doll. Man, we remember Pussycat. You don't play Dolce? Sound like a Betty Wright song. Dolce, Dolce. Do you know any other Pussycats? Nope. Do you? Yeah, Loosen Up My Buttons because of Snoop. Loosen Up My Buttons? Loosen Up My Buttons. Y'all got to get to these words faster.
Starting point is 01:11:55 Y'all ain't pronouncing these two-syllable words fast enough, man. And Snoop was on the song with them. Okay. All right. Well, she did an interview yesterday, and she was talking about how hard the industry was on her and how hard her management was on her as well so i think a lot of fans fell in love with the music with the women uh wanting to buy into the hype of what we were um but i
Starting point is 01:12:19 think a lot of people would be surprised of what what we went through abuse mistreatment constantly discouraged you're not enough you're never enough you're not good enough on any on any accord you you're just there to do what they want you to do it's no coincidence that very few of the women have children i mean that's the pressures and you know the forcing abortions and you know you need you know when you're fired if you're if you're pregnant you're fired can they do that they can do that and none of us would be surprised by that she was on tucker carlson says she was forced to get an abortion i say alleged uh well you got you well would you stop with that fan man people can hear it well could y'all turn the goddamn heat down in here out of what we saying tucker carlson though that's where you went to tell that story
Starting point is 01:13:04 like that's where you know what i mean that's that's just it seems questionable what did he say after she said you was forced to get an abortion he said good no he said really and then she was like yeah yeah because you know it forces this is the thing with um with those people those right-wing people they continue to push this rhetoric that people that are in the entertainment business are these wicked people and doing the devil's work which is which is you know true for everybody because the most like when we did uh we did a story about gay porn the most consumption of gay porn is in mississippi okay it is not in los ang. That's why them letters crooked. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:46 It's not in LA. It's not in New York. I'm saying. So when you go on these shows and you know that those are those people's talking points. Right. You just push the agenda when they're like, yeah, the Hollywood demon worshiper pedophiles. And that's what they do. They forcing abortions on.
Starting point is 01:14:04 You are all grownups. You had a choice to say, I don't want to be in the group then i'm this i'm not doing that this is against what i believe in and true enough it's easier to say because you don't know but you this is a woman who's been homeless with two children who had to make decisions sometimes i had to choose my integrity and that cost me a price yeah i'm sure it did but I'm sure she was in one of the biggest groups at the time and she wanted to be successful and she took it as this is what this is my shots and I don't want to lose my shot I don't know if I'm gonna ever have this shot again and no but can you grow up and you know realize like man I made a bad decision
Starting point is 01:14:39 I made a bad mistake I made a bad choice and you should be able to speak about those poor choices you make absolutely and I also you think that two things can be true at the same time unfortunately we're unable to have nuanced conversations now because everything is one way or the other right two things can be true yes that's unfair that's abusive to expect a person to do have an abortion and not have children and keep a body standard up but then what that does sometimes is absolves the the praise and the glory to the people who make those difficult decisions and choose themselves and say well i i'm not doing this the people who say i'm not gonna let the machine dictate who i am there are a lot of outliers and then you take it away from them
Starting point is 01:15:21 when you do that there are a lot of people who are like, you know what? I'm not doing this. My soul is worth more to me than this. You know what, Ida, to your point, some people like that don't even get big enough to have the platform to even ever tell that story. Right. To ever tell the story about how it's like I chose something else. Right. Now, Doja Cat loses her verification on Twitter. They took her blue check away from her.
Starting point is 01:15:42 Now, allegedly, they're going to be taking everybody's blue check on 420. She said, having a blue check now means there's a higher chance that you're a complete loser and that you're desperate for validation from famous people.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Only fans have blue ticks. So, she's saying that, you know, everybody's supposed to be losing their blue check in a minute. If you get high on 420, you won't even notice.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Yeah. Okay? And I ain't been on Twitter in like five years, so I could kill that. I know. I'm not on it. And lastly,
Starting point is 01:16:05 Michael Jordan, his Last Dance 13 sneakers sold yesterday for $2.2 million. The highest price ever paid at auction for a pair of sneakers. The sneakers he actually wore
Starting point is 01:16:17 in his last game? Yeah. He wore them game two at the Utah Jazz. How can you prove they were worn? You smell them?
Starting point is 01:16:23 Like they got a little scent to them? Like how can you prove he actually wore those? I don't know. I don't know, but that game he scored 37 points. He had five rebounds, three assists. And he evened the game. They got to scrape some DNA out the sneakers. How do you verify that he actually wore these?
Starting point is 01:16:37 They have to be somehow. They were signed. They have to be. If you bought the shoes. If you bought Michael Jordan's shoes just know nothing's gonna change for you
Starting point is 01:16:49 tomorrow you're not gonna be like Mike y'all might have watched that Bow Wow movie and got gassed up I promise you send a fella
Starting point is 01:16:56 when you put them sneakers on ain't nothing gonna change at all have y'all seen the air movie yet I haven't seen it yet me neither I wanna see it I wanna go see
Starting point is 01:17:03 Super Mario Brothers how was that? Fantastic. I heard it was good. Fan-freaking-out. Did you take Edible before you said it? No, I was with the kids. No, I was with the kids.

Starting point is 01:17:23 Who that is? Mark Taylor's a good old-fashioned white supremacist man boy my favorite all right we'll get into that next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club your mornings will never be the same host kevin hart and nick cannon are declaring war on hollywood each week they take you behind the scenes as they team up with their famous friends for an all-out prank war the bigger the star the harder they fall catch celebrity prank wars thursday at 10 on e you are a donkey it's time for donkey of the day i'm gonna fatten all that shit around your eyes. They want this man to throw them blows, man.
Starting point is 01:18:05 They waiting for Charlemagne to tap these gloves. Let's go. They have to make a judgment of who was going to be on the donkey of the day. They chose you. It's a breakfast club, bitchy. Who's donkey of the day today? Well, donkey of the day for Wednesday, April 12th goes to Mark Taylor. Mark is a football trainer based in the great state of Georgia.
Starting point is 01:18:23 He is the owner of Speed Edge Sports in Macon, Georgia. Speed Edge Sports is a training camp that operates out of a local Christian school. He trains a lot of up and coming athletes, majority of them black. But I have a feeling he is about to lose a lot of clientele. OK, if the people he's training have any self-respect or should I say if the parents of the people he's training have any self-respect, he's going to lose a lot of clientele because, let's just say, Mark got some things off his chest about black people. Let's go to CBS 13 WMAZ for the report, please.
Starting point is 01:18:52 Yes, more than a decade ago, Mark Taylor was banned from Houston County. Now he's in the headlines again. Taylor shared a slur-filled video of himself driving through Atlanta with a friend. Then those videos wound up on Facebook. We want to warn that the video you're about to see is disturbing. I ain't seen a white person in sight. Homeless ones on the street. Every restaurant looking in here is black. Every car beside them is black. They can have Atlanta. And that's just the milder racist comments that Mark Taylor said on camera. Videos show Taylor making racist slurs toward a black woman driving in downtown Atlanta
Starting point is 01:19:32 and saying someone named Roe would hang the woman from a tree. They show him using the n-word several times. Taylor is a former Northside middle school teacher and coach, and in 2007, he pleaded guilty to a felony charge of influencing a witness. He was accused that same year of stalking and harassing his ex-fiancee, who was also a teacher. Let me tell you something, man. I listened to this rant this morning and I laughed hard, okay, because I have a sick sense of humor and I find overt racism like this extremely funny.
Starting point is 01:20:04 I don't know if I'm laughing at what he actually said as much as I'm chuckling at the car Cassidy. OK, the unmelanated gall of this man to actually record himself saying all of this. Where did he post these videos on true social? Now, I'm going to play his racist rant for you. It was about two minutes long, but we edited it down just to just a little as not to bore you. But I think you will be highly entertained if not highly entertained disgusted but either way it's going to get you going okay i know usually you need your starbucks or your dunkin donuts or your fentanyl free cocaine to get you turned up in the morning but i think mark taylor gonna get you there let's listen ain't nothing here dog ain't nothing but blacks up here. That's all it is, Atlantistan.

Hey, did you see that tree right there? Hold on, Ray. Somebody just whispered to me, play it from the beginning. I thought that was great. It's better than that. Alright, play it from the beginning. Alright, let's go. Homeless ones from the beginning. I thought that was great. It's better than that? All right, play it from the beginning. All right, let's go.
Starting point is 01:21:08 Homeless ones on the street. Every restaurant looking in here is black. Every car beside them is black. They can have Atlanta. Even the cars? It used to be a fun place to come to up here. It's very fun. They can have this place right here.
Starting point is 01:21:22 That stuff, there ain't no way. There's your... It was just a sign up there had obama and all them on there who's all in and stuff man yeah that's all that's up here that's all that's up here man and stuff is just crap yeah yeah you and boyf need to come up here and go hunting. Ain't nothing here dog. Ain't nothing but blacks up here. That's all it is. Atlanta's done gone down, man. Just gone.
Starting point is 01:21:49 When's the last time you been to Atlanta? That's what I was gonna say during the civil rights movement. Is that when it was cool to go there? Gone down, man. Just gone. Bro, look at this try to pull out in front of me right here. Look ata trying to pull out in front of me right here. Look at this n***a trying to pull out
Starting point is 01:22:06 in front of me right here. Hey, did you see that tree right there? Roe will hang you from that tree. Jesus Christ. Who is Roe?
Starting point is 01:22:16 We never saw, you never see Roe, right? I don't know Roe. V. Wade was in the backseat. Listen, black people, listen to me, man. All minorities, listen to me, man. All minorities,
Starting point is 01:22:25 listen to me, but especially black people. Stop giving a F. All right, I want y'all to start having the freedom to say what you want to say the way an old white racist has the freedom
Starting point is 01:22:33 to say what they want to say. Too many of y'all are afraid to speak truth to power in regards to systemic racism. And I don't know why because they're not afraid
Starting point is 01:22:40 to be racist, okay? This is why I get upset at certain elected officials, whether it's my South Carolina brethren, Senator Tim Scott, or my at certain elected officials, whether it's my South Carolina brethren, Senator Tim Scott or my OG Jim Clyburn. OK, our vice president, Kamala Harris, when they are asked if America is a racist country and they say no.
Starting point is 01:22:54 All right. The answer is yes. OK, is everyone in America racist? No. But was America conceived on racism? Yes. All right. Do those racist roots run deep?
Starting point is 01:23:01 Yes. Is America built on a racist social contract? Yes. And it's time to tear that racist social contract up. And part of tearing it up is speaking truth to power when it comes to people like Mark Taylor. OK, we don't take the high road with individuals like him. All right. First things first. You plot your plan, you strategize, you organize and mobilize. Like my good brother, Michael Rinder, a.k.a. Killer Mike, says. OK, and you have to hit this man, Mark Taylor, where it hurts. OK, hit him in his pockets. All right. He's a football trainer in Georgia, owner of Speed Edge Sports and Making.
Starting point is 01:23:34 It's a training camp. Every single black person and every single person who hates racist and systemic racism should pull their money out of that business. OK, find another football trainer. I don't care if he can make you the next Patrick Mahomes or the next Micah Parsons. You have to cripple him financially, okay? After that, we must learn how to properly respond to racism, okay? Salute to the first lady, Michelle Obama. Drop on the clues bombs for Michelle Obama, all right? But she gave y'all a piece of advice that has crippled so many of y'all.
Starting point is 01:24:03 And that advice was, when they go low, we go high. I bet you Michelle don't even believe that anymore. Okay. Not after what she's been seeing the last seven years. No, no, no. Somebody ask her next time she's out promoting a book or a diet plan. Ask her if she feels when they go low, should we still go high? And tell her Charlemagne said, no, when they go low, we should take high and tell her Charlemagne said no when they go low we should
Starting point is 01:24:25 take it to the floor with them not because we are vibrating on a lower frequency but because I want to get down where you are okay I want to stoop down to your level just so I can look you in the face and be eye to eye with you Mark Taylor when I utter these three beautiful words cracker ass cracker please let Chelsea Handler give Mark Taylor the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. Where my girl Kathy Griffin at? Please give this giant jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw.
Starting point is 01:24:53 Chris Rock. Chris Rock want to spin the block? Cracker ass cracker. Where my girl who work at that restaurant? Tell her, tell her, tell her. What's the special today? Cracker. Okay. Okay. Any more? That's the special today? Pranker! Okay.
Starting point is 01:25:06 Okay. Any more? That's all we got. All right. Unless I don't want to... All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Now, when we come back,
Starting point is 01:25:17 let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051. We were talking about Chloe Bailey. She did 10,000 in her first week. That means nothing. Okay, this is a marathon, not a sprint.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Well, people were saying that they blamed Beyonce because Beyonce didn't support her. And, of course, she signed to Beyonce's record label. That's ridiculous to give Beyonce full blame for that situation. Let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Do you think Beyonce should be supporting and promoting and posting her artists? They're in business with each other. Yes, I do.
Starting point is 01:25:51 Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it some more. We'll do that when we come back. And we'll take your calls. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. E.J. Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:26:02 We got our guest host, Ida Rodriguez, joining us this morning. Now, if you're just joining us, we're asking about Chloe Bailey. Chloe Bailey's album came out last week. She did 10,000 units her first week and people are blaming Beyonce, her mentor, for not promoting her project online. That's stupid. They're saying that she could have did more. She wasn't even on a song on the album. And they're saying that she didn't even announce that, you know, she's taking her out on her out on tour it was like you know Beyonce's really not helping Chloe's project or Chloe's album I think Beyonce should post because that's her artist but Beyonce isn't
Starting point is 01:26:33 obligated to post and if Beyonce's post uh is gonna make y'all buy the album great but the reality is if you didn't know Chloe album was out out, you know now. So go buy her album. That is true. Go buy it right now. Also, Beyonce used to post Ivy Park all the time, and y'all didn't buy that. That's right. Which is probably why Beyonce and Ivy Park not in business together no more. Right. I think the people who are saying that Beyonce should post, I would like for them to show
Starting point is 01:27:01 proof that they bought the album. I agree. Are you in that 10 000 that's that's real but i do feel like if you're signed to somebody's record label right or you do or you are in business with somebody that's part of what you assume or what you think right if i'm an artist and i signed to anybody and i seen jay-z do it to his biggest artist Beanie Siegel to Rihanna to Kanye to Emil. He promoted his artist. Well, no. He did
Starting point is 01:27:30 at one point, but he kind of stopped doing that. You never really saw Jay stand next to J. Cole like he used to do to all those other guys. He put J. Cole on the album and gave J. Cole a verse? He definitely did. He brought Rita Ora up here, remember? Oh, no, you're right. Never mind. He brought Rita Ora up here, remember? Oh, no, you're right. Never mind. He brought Rita Ora up here.
Starting point is 01:27:45 Listen, I'm all for it. You know what I mean? All of us in here got quite a few business ventures. I think when you sign or you partner with somebody, especially who has a media platform or who has a big platform, you expect them to promote your stuff. Like, how would I look having partnerships with the Black Effect Podcast Network or having people on my book imprint black privilege and not promoting their stuff because that would be hurting me as well like the bigger they get the bigger win for all of us yeah i mean beyonce did say she's one of one she's the only one so now posting somebody else and saying but they're but she's here it's part of the beyonce allure but that's why I'm signing to you though
Starting point is 01:28:25 I'm signing to you because I'm hoping I'm going to get a Beyonce verse I'm signing to you because I'm hoping that I'm going to get some of your fans I'm signing to you so I can get some of your knowledge and wisdom and your promo I don't like how y'all passing by the signing thing what you mean? that's a big thing you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:28:40 you're signed to my label I did that, that's a big deal. And Beyonce has been talking about Chloe and Halle for a long time. Chloe and Halle are on the scene the way that they are because of Beyonce. Like, so, you know, well,
Starting point is 01:28:55 you said something earlier that, you know, you did a deal with Tiffany Haddish and she didn't promote you, but you didn't have a problem with it. No, I didn't say she didn't promote me. I said, she didn't post my special on her page that she produced and i didn't take it personal because she gave me a
Starting point is 01:29:10 special you know she got me a special on netflix and made sure that i got paid and i promoted my special and my special did very well is it i mean i got more than 10 000 hits oh well i will say no i'm just joking i'm not i love i love uh chloe but i'm just saying that it you know i some would argue that she people were like she should post it she should post all of y'all individually but in the middle of that she was promoting all these movies promoting her own stuff and i i didn't take it personal i was just happy that she got me a special but I can say what Tiffany did do Tiffany she promoted the special overall right but then I know she definitely called me it was like yeah you gotta have Ida on breakfast you gotta have flame on breakfast
Starting point is 01:29:56 you know I mean so stuff like that goes a long way like you don't know what people are doing behind the scenes like Beyonce might be I'm matter of fact I know Beyonce's probably doing a lot for Chloe I'm sure behind the scenes you know and I think be... Matter of fact, I know Beyonce's probably doing a lot for Khloe. I'm sure. Behind the scenes, you know? And I think that goes farther than what y'all see publicly on social media, people. Well, let's go to the phone lines.
Starting point is 01:30:11 We got Kiki on the line. Kiki, good morning. Good morning. Hey, how you feeling? What's your thoughts? We're talking Khloe Bailey this morning. I feel like it's not
Starting point is 01:30:21 Beyonce's fault, but yes, if she's her artist, then yes, promote her. I mean, it's a team thing.. But yes, if she's her artist, then yes, promote her. I mean, it's a team thing. Team work makes the dream work, right? So yeah, it's not Beyonce's fault. But yeah, that's her artist. Definitely support her and put her on the back.
Starting point is 01:30:34 The funny thing that makes me laugh, though, is y'all swear y'all know what's going on with people. That's true. We don't know what Beyonce is doing for Khloe behind the scenes. Beyonce might be the reason for that 10,000. You stupid. I'm serious. But you know what? Beyonce might be taking on tour because she didn't announce who stupid. I'm serious. But, you know what? Beyonce might be taking on Torgers.
Starting point is 01:30:46 She didn't announce who was opening up for her or who was doing anything on Torgers. And also, like you said, maybe, you know, Chloe and Beyonce had a conversation and be like, you know what? I don't want you to be in my shadow. I want you to stand on your own. That's right. That is true, too. Because remember, no disrespect to Bleak.
Starting point is 01:31:00 Shout out to Memphis Bleak because that's kind of what happened with Memphis Bleak. Memphis Bleak was always in Jay-Z's shadow, in my opinion. He never got a chance to stand on his own yo that is true because Chloe, Halle, Michelle, Kelly they always get asked about Beyonce like you know they are they're always attached to Beyonce so you know I can see them where they'd be like I'm my own entity correct let me let me rock on my own I'm a force by myself they have to fly on their own or they won't have the respect. People will always say, you only got this because of Beyonce. At some point,
Starting point is 01:31:30 you got to cut the cord so that they can fly and they can soar. And Chloe is talented enough. That's right. Everybody got a bad album. Hello, who's this? This is Shay. How are you? Hey, Shay. Good morning. How are you feeling? I'm feeling great. How are you feeling?
Starting point is 01:31:45 Good, good, good. That's black and highly favored. What do you think about Chloe Bailey, my mom? Hey, man. I feel like with Chloe Bailey, okay, first of all, I'm not saying she does, but artists shouldn't be trying to sign with bigger artists just because of who they are, just for exposure. You get what I'm saying? No.
Starting point is 01:32:02 I'm not saying she did it. No, but that's the reason to do it. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. It's just worked for a lot of. No, but that's the reason to do it. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. It's just worked for a lot of people. Yeah, that's the reason you do it. That's why I always... No, but she has her own name already, so she should already be going by
Starting point is 01:32:13 what she's already known for. She got her own name because she signed to Beyonce and Parkwood. Absolutely. We didn't know who they were before that. No, she has her own name because she's Chloe Bailey from, what you call it,
Starting point is 01:32:24 Disney World or Disneyland? Chloe wasn't with Disney? I remember Chloe being with Disney. I don't remember Chloe or Halle until Beyonce signed it and made it a lot bigger. I just didn't know. Maybe she was doing something before,
Starting point is 01:32:36 but that's how I know them. I know them before. Oh, you're lying. No, you're right. They were on Disney. They were on Disney, I know, because I think she picked them up from Disney, but I didn't know who they were
Starting point is 01:32:45 until they signed. But as an artist, you should want to have your own exposure and have your own name. Not saying she did it, but... Hey, check this out. Did you buy the album? Do you own in pieces? Yep. I sure did.
Starting point is 01:32:58 You won it at $10,000. There you go. You won it at $10,000. Thank you, man. But that's the reason why most people sign to major artists. That's why people sign to Ross. That's why they sign to 50. That's why they sign to Eminem. They sign to at $10. Thank you, man. But that's the reason why most people sign to major artists. That's why people sign to Ross. That's why they sign to 50. That's why they sign to Eminem.
Starting point is 01:33:08 They sign to Jay-Z. Dr. Dre, Jay-Z. Kanye West. Kanye, because you want that exposure. That's right. But you know what? The other thing is this expectation of ultimate success at every turn. Yes.
Starting point is 01:33:21 Every artist has a bad album, an album that didn't do well. It's only the first week. It's only a couple days ago. But I'm saying, even if it doesn't, and I, listen, I'm wishing all the success.
Starting point is 01:33:32 I hope this frenzy causes people to download the album. That's what I want for her. I want her to win. I love her. But what I'm saying is, even if it doesn't,
Starting point is 01:33:41 this is not the end for her. She's talented. She'll get another album. Everybody got their, that album. She's talented. She'll get another album. Everybody got that album. There's the, what's Jay-Z's, the blue? The blueprint. The blueprint, and then there was the black print, right? No, the black album.
Starting point is 01:33:56 Black album. Both of those albums were amazing. Yeah, they were amazing. Number one albums in the country. Both of them. Not both of them. Both of them. Jay-Z got a bad album, right?
Starting point is 01:34:07 He got an album that didn't do well. Only the reasonable doubt. That was his first album. And I think that's the best one. That's one of his best. He's got 14 number one albums. But here's the thing. Just buy the album, y'all.
Starting point is 01:34:18 You know what I'm saying? It's only the first week. It's 10,000 records. This is a marathon, not a sprint. This same album could end up going platinum. Remember what NLE Chopper said earlier. He said his first album did 19,000 first week and wound up going gold. That's right.
Starting point is 01:34:30 So call us up, 800-585-1051. What's your thoughts? You want to get into a record? Play my cousin's record, man. First of all, we're going to play two. We're going to play the one with Chris Bryant, then we're going to come back and play the one with Missy Elliott. While I look up these Jay-Z numbers.

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,

On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think,
Starting point is 01:39:13 oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night, I would dream that my face was quote unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture, that something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure listen to a slight change of plans on the iHeartRadio app apple
Starting point is 01:39:51 podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts we are the breakfast club if you're just joining us we're talking about Chloe Bailey her album just came out she did 10,000 units in the first week and people are blaming Beyonce that is so stupid now like once again i do think that if that is your artist you should at least post which is so crazy but we don't know what beyonce is doing for chloe bailey behind the scenes and by the way chloe's on tour right now right check she's on tour immediately she was just in chicago last night you got a new york day coming up she's on tour right so this is not a sprint i mean it's not a it's not a sprint it's a marathon people i want to hear what the beehive has to say about this where's the beehive i'm sure they released a statement they said
Starting point is 01:40:31 let's go to the phone lines ask people what they think hello who's this this yetta good morning yetta good morning what's yetta what's yetta what's yetta short for ken short for? Kenyetta. Okay. Kenyetta. What's your opinion, Kenyetta? Yedda Marie style. So I just feel like that's her artist, okay? So, yes, you should be helping pump your artist so you can get the money. She can get the money. The money going to keep flowing, right? Teamwork.
Starting point is 01:40:59 Did you buy the album, Yedda? I have not bought the album yet. Go buy the album. Before you judge Beyonce and complain about Beyonce, you should go buy the album before you judge beyonce and complain about beyonce you should go buy the album oh i should i haven't bought the album yet don't know are you gonna support her or not i love you hey she makes a good point she She's like, I stand to gain nothing from this. But Beyonce does.
Starting point is 01:41:30 I love Yedda. No, I'm with Yedda. Dwayne, good morning, Dwayne. Good morning. How y'all doing today? Bless Black and Holly's favor. What's up, brother? What's your thoughts?
Starting point is 01:41:38 It was good. I'm doing good this morning. Chloe, Beyonce, she's the best. I feel like she could have gave her some knowledge of her album dropping. She got a lot of followers. We'll have to gain some more people to know about her music coming out. You said she should have gave her some knowledge.
Starting point is 01:41:53 What you mean? No, not knowledge. I mean, she could have gave her a shout-out. Like, you know, she could have, um, let the people know Chloe was dropping something new. Let me ask y'all a question, right? The promotion that, I guess, that's out for Khloe's album, because I'm sure that there's actual marketing and stuff going
Starting point is 01:42:08 on. Who do you think is probably responsible for that? You don't think it's Parkwood? Beyonce's label? No, she's up under Beyonce, probably, but I don't know how people on teams work really like that with the music, but I know just a little. I know when some of my friends drop music, I give them a little quick share on Instagram. And they
Starting point is 01:42:23 don't sell 10,000? No And they don't sell 10,000. No, they don't sell 10,000. I ain't Beyonce. Nobody cares. All I'm simply saying is, why do we put so much stock in social media posts? You know, it be like that on people's birthdays, right? You can have an actual friend that you might have been on the phone with, call them, say happy birthday.
Starting point is 01:42:38 You might be with that person. They be like, why you ain't post him happy birthday? I'm like, because I'm with my peoples right now. What are you talking about? Social media has y'all in such a chokehold that because y'all ain't see beyonce put this album in her story or on her page y'all think it's a lack of support that's insane to me yeah no you know what and to your point i just want to say that all the promoters out there who book us comedians and then when we don't have good shows say well you didn't post it enough on your
Starting point is 01:43:04 page while they do no promotion they do they do no other promotions outside of social media And then when we don't have good shows, say, well, you didn't post it enough on your page. Why? They do no promotion. They do. They do no other promotions outside of social media. What is it? Three percent of the people who consume social media are the ones who actually are affected by it. Like it's like flyers, right? You put 10,000 flyers. Three percent of the flyers are going to get ticket sales.
Starting point is 01:43:22 I agree. What do you think she was going to do and she's promoting a tour she's currently promoting a tour that's right so i'll tell all y'all out there before y'all get mad at beyonce and judge beyonce have you bought chloe bailey's album yet have you posted about chloe bailey's album yet until you do that you are a hypocrite okay leave beyonce alone because she's done way more for Khloe than y'all ever will. Let me ask you a question. Yes. That is your cousin, you say? Yes. Before today, did you promote, or post, or play a record at all?
Starting point is 01:43:50 No. I was on vacation. I was disconnected from social media. I wasn't posting to nobody. You know what I mean? But I'm going to post her today. And we're about to play another Khloe Bailey record right now. This is Missy Elliott.
Starting point is 01:44:00 It's called Told Ya. It's off the album, in pieces, which only 10,000 of y'all bought. So y'all should go out there and buy the album right now because this is a marathon, not a sprint. Why don't you buy the album right now?
Starting point is 01:44:11 I don't buy albums, but I will scream it. I don't even know how to buy an album. Me neither. You know what's so crazy? The last album I bought, I am going to buy
Starting point is 01:44:17 Chloe's album now that you said that, but you know the last album I bought? Tank. Because he was up here. Yes. He made us do it.
Starting point is 01:44:23 Every time I get in my damn car, that goddamn tank comes on. Why? Apple Music goes through it. Why does that do. Because he was up here. Yes. He made us do it. Every time I get in my damn car. Tank comes on. That goddamn Tank comes on. Why? Apple Music goes to it. Why does that do that? Because you bought it. And it's the only song that you bought.
Starting point is 01:44:31 So when you plug in your phone, it plays. And I be having my music loud because of the stuff I listen to. So every time I get in that parking garage and I turn on, all you hear is, I deserve. I'm like, these people probably think I love Tank. All I know is Beyonce is promoting her tour and with the record sales for Khloe's album, you can only buy two tickets

Starting point is 01:46:34 That's definitely a book. And everything that she had to go to, to getting released, to getting back to the WNBA. Because, you know, she signed a one-year deal with the Phoenix Mercury. I know that book deal was lucrative. Yes, I'm sure. Probably more than the WNBA paying her. All right. Now, penis pics.
Starting point is 01:46:49 We're going to be talking Sway Lee. He explains why he accidentally posted a penis pic. I just got to bleep Dick Gregory. Twice. Oh, man. Two Dick Tracy's went out? Twice. Wow.

We got group chats with y'all penisesises and we have a rating system we are we manage your mama's when they didn't circumcise you when you was a
Starting point is 01:47:50 baby a whole world of women who are now weaponizing these penis pics and say I you won't send these pictures out watch this so what's the rating system is like one to ten or one the safari what is it one well one to ten is based on quality i don't want somebody to talk about my penis not length i know you're talking about it that's no i wonder what you did that damn but she didn't you got a penis that's a different size penis bro you know what i love between the two of you the dynamic is that you guys do not innately believe one another so every time somebody makes a statement you're like you sure
Starting point is 01:48:29 are you you call each other a liar indirectly i'm fluent in subtext at least today at least 10 times each of you have have doubted something that now listen i lie on purpose no but charlotte yesterday was like i don't believe this story like, I don't believe this story. No, today, I don't believe this story at this bank at all. It's not that I don't believe Envy. Envy leaves out key pieces of the story. He leaves out a lot of context to the story. So I know whatever he's saying isn't actually that.
Starting point is 01:48:58 There's pieces to it. That's all. He's a liar. I lie on purpose, though. I tell y'all when I'm lying. I'll say something and they'll be like, no, I'm lying. Have you ever sent somebody a penis pic I lie on purpose. I tell y'all when I'm lying. I'll say something and they'll be like, no, I'm lying. Have you ever sent somebody a penis pic? No.
Starting point is 01:49:09 Yes. Yeah? Your wife? Yes, all the time. You do? And how does she respond to those penis pics? It wasn't the, ooh. Yes, it was.
Starting point is 01:49:16 It was the, ooh. No, we read the book. The book said she didn't orgasm in 10 years either. Oh, my goodness. That ain't no penis y'all trying to get a reality show is that why you did that that's why y'all did that
Starting point is 01:49:31 let me explain to you when me and my wife first started dating I was 16 she was 15 when we first started making love I did not know what I was doing I thought it was a porn I would just go bang bang bang bang bang and I wasn't making an orgasm from my penis from the mouth making love. I did not know what I was doing. I thought it was a porn. I would just go bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. And I wasn't making
Starting point is 01:49:46 an orgasm from my penis. From the mouth? Yes. We read the book and we heard the story a million times. So I had to learn how. And it took a while
Starting point is 01:49:53 until she told me. Okay. Oh, she spared you. He orgasmed first because after they watched American Pie, he wanted to get what Stifler got.
Starting point is 01:50:01 So yeah, yeah, yeah. That was in the book. That's a loving wife. Do you believe him now? Because he's lying again. See? No, I'm saying that she didn't tell you
Starting point is 01:50:10 until later. That's a loving wife. She saw the potential in you. She saw the potential in that penis. Now, do y'all read it like that? Are there potentials? Can you look and be like,
Starting point is 01:50:20 this has potential. Yeah, you look like, eh. There's no more, there's no more rhyme. There's no more, there's no more dope. I'm going to tell you what could work. Okay, no, no, eh. There's no more rap. There's no more dope. I'm going to tell you what could work.
Starting point is 01:50:27 Okay, no, no, no. We got to go. We got to go. We need a website, right? And it's a website where people can post anonymous penis pics to get ratings. My goodness, all right. No, for real. That's your rumor report. People's Choice mixes up next.

Starting point is 01:51:26 was arrested after allegedly hosting student brawls. So I guess she did like a fight club in Tallahassee where she would instruct the students to fight.

Starting point is 01:51:42 of a minor after investigators spoke to students. Sounds about right to me. Well, right to me. I don't know what color that woman was.

Starting point is 01:51:56 She's 23, though, right? 23. Middle school, what? Six, seven, eighth grade? So her cerebral cortex ain't fully developed. That's true.

Starting point is 01:52:11 no uh no screaming no pulling hair no phones but i wanted to hear the rules of the game like only one roundhouse you know uppercuts i i you, I think that she's too immature to be in a, you know, teaching children that I think. And what's the context? Like, why is she doing this? Are they fighting anyway? So she's like. Fighting outside and like, let's do it here.
Starting point is 01:52:34 Yeah. Fight it and finish and go back to class. I don't know. Was she taking bets? Were they making money? Wow. Was she making money? Yeah, you're right.
