Let's go. All right, morning, everybody. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now we're going to start off with some quick sports tonight to Vegas. The Aces played at Phoenix Mercury at 8 p.m. Eastern time. That's game three.

Aces lead the series 2-0. Last night, if you stayed up late, the Yankees took on the Blue. J's. They were down six, three, and then Aaron Judge came through. They actually won last night, 9 to 6. Game 4 is tonight. To the Mariners beat the Tigers. What's up, Mimi?

Good morning, Envy. Charlemagne, Jess. How y'all doing? Peace, Mimi. Good morning. All right, well, we start this morning with still continued growing frustration for travelers as flight delays pile up at airports across the country.

From Boston to Nashville, Chicago to Houston, passengers are once again facing long waits as the government shutdown drags on. Now, the FAA says the issue comes down to staffing. There simply aren't enough air traffic control controllers, the people who guide every flight from takeoff to landing. And in Nashville, some travelers waited nearly two hours at Chicago O'Hare, delay stretch close to 45 minutes. And at smaller airports like Burbank, the staffing shortages still continue. Now, these controllers, they are considered essential workers, which means

they have to show up, even though they're not getting paid while the shutdown continues. And now there's growing anger after President Trump suggested that some of these workers may not receive back pay once the shutdown ends. That's great. Let's listen to that. Yeah. I would say it depends on who we're talking about. I can tell you this, the Democrats have put a lot of people in great risk and jeopardy, but it really depends on who you're talking about. But for the most part, we're going to take care of our people.

There are some people that really don't deserve to be taken care of and we'll take care of them in a different way. What essential worker that works for the government doesn't deserve to be taking care of. And see, this is why I don't know if Democrats and Republicans know. People don't care whose fault it is if the government is shut down. They blame all of y'all. Y'all can try to politicize this all they want. They're pointing fingers at both parties. And when they hear rhetoric like that, what do you mean?

One federal worker deserves it over another. They're all government workers. They all deserve to get paid. They all work. They all work. And to your point, Shalema, not only that, it's against the law. So back in 2019, Congress passed the Government Employment Therment Treatment Act, which guarantees that every federal worker will be paid, furloughed, or if they're working without pay.

So if they're at home or if they're a TSA agent actively working, they should still get paid. So they must receive that once the government opens. So we'll see what happens. But a memo went out, and that's where all this came from. It came from the White House, and it said that furloughed workers might not automatically qualify. There is no more information on what that qualifier may look like. So we'll just see what happens when, you know, the government shutdown is over or if President Trump comes back out and gives us some more information.

Oh, Mimi, I'm sure you're right. But the thing about laws, you have to have people that care about them. Right. When you've got a guy like Trump in charge, you don't care about laws and live very lawless. That law means nothing. But you are correct. Yeah. You are correct, too.

Absolutely. You need someone who's going to enforce those laws. us. And so as a frustration plays out at the airport, Washington isn't moving any faster either. There was no vote in Congress yesterday to end the shutdown, meaning that it will stretch at least another week while lawmakers return. They're on recess. They don't return until August 14th, or excuse me, October 14th. And at the center of all of this, of course, we've been talking about those tax credits that help millions of Americans afford health insurance. Now, those subsidies are expected to expire at the end of the year. So here's what

that kind of means for you. So a single person making $35,000 a year would see their monthly premium jump from $85 to nearly $220 a month. And a family of four earning around $80,000 could see their bill rise from $320 a month to almost $700 a month. I know that is a double, especially when families are living paycheck to paycheck. So Democrats, they argue that the subsidies are key to keeping the price down, but Republicans, they insist that that is unrelated to the shutdown. And time is running out because open enrollment for most states, a start November 1st. And another thing to keep in mind that you may not be on Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act, but if millions of people lose their coverage, insurers will raise prices and will have to make up

the difference. So that means higher premiums for everyone across the board. So including people with private health insurance or employer-based. waste insurance. It will affect every household because it will decide how much all of us have to pay for health care next year. This is disgusting, man. Everyday working class, people have got to suffer. Because guess who don't care that the government is shut down?

The light company, your landlord, the health care system, the bank who gave you a loan for your car. They don't care if the government shut down. They need this. Matter of fact, you pass, do. It's the eighth already. MTA, you got to get the word. You know what I'm saying? They don't care. All right. Well, that's front page news. Get it off your chest.

5-1. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Ray, Ray, Ray. Yo, Charlemagne. What up? Are we live? This is your time to get it off your chest. I got an indoor pool.

I'm outdoor pool. We want to hear from you on the breakfast club. We can get on the phone right now. He'll tell you what it is. We live? Hello, who's this? This is Jake. Put your seat by all on, Jack.

Carolina. I'm sorry about that. 843. What's happening in the 843? I was just home. I was home this weekend. Well, Sunday and Monday I was down there. What's up, Jay? You know, if you're charged yourself. Yeah, I just want to make a comment with your chat down. It's ridiculous because Congress still gets paid, and you have a lot of people just living daily paycheck to paycheck.

But what I really want to jump on, when they had the invasion on the campus, I was just going through different people arrested because of the public information. and the Trump said that he wanted to keep the worst of the worst out of America. But if you look at some of these guys who he pardoned, some of them have the most ridiculous arrest record. One guy got 23 arrests, and then he'd been indicted the same day Trump parted him for his pornography from the age of 12 and under. One of the sheriffs of taking bribing, postman looking at 23 years,

then all of the people he pardoned, you know, Scott, I just want you to hear that. Now, one of them was black that he parted. A lot of people didn't notice and read it. So I took my time and researched all this last night. And the people that he pardoned have records, that's ridiculous. And some of the people that he's trying to deport back to next to one of them, they don't have records.

And with people that he's snatching up off of the street. So people need to realize and look at that. Yeah, not only are you correct, a lot of those same individuals after they were pardoned, they committed fresh crimes. That's what he said. It got re-ruled, yeah. Yeah, they committed fresh crimes. Oh, I thought he was saying

that they had records already. No, he had records, but he said they got arrested as well. No, they had records. Yeah, yeah. Thank you, brother. I saw Tim this weekend, too. I slew to Tim Scott.

I saw Tim in the airport when I was in home. Hello, who's this? Hey, good morning, everyone. This is Tee. What's up, T's Tee? Your body ain't Tito. Whoa.

Oh, you, oh, I can't my man be listening. Anyway, you don't know that Salamo. You must not know. Yeah. I feel that I would let him talk his mess this morning Ain't no problem

You're right, I'm wrong She was about to send him a picture And then she was She better not send him no picture I'm a happy man She said somebody She's about her pastor Huh

She said somebody She wasn't about to send him No picture She was ready giving that rebuttal Like excuse me Damn she goes That's not enough What happens?

Not enough Her boyfriend Came up behind And grabbed that damn phone Now now all the phones Oh God Sorry T That's our phones

You know we barely making it up here. You know what I'm saying? Get it off your chest. 800-585-105-1. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up! Whether you're mad or black. It's time to get up and get something.

Call up now. 800-585-105-1. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Oh, my gosh. I think we are disconnected. Anyway, this is tea again. O-Tee. There's O-T. We thought we lost you, Tee. Stop, girl. No, hey, y'all. I know. I know.

some advice and some real honest advice. So I have a baby. We have, um, me and my boyfriend, we had our first child together. He's six months. Congrats. Congratulations. We and my mom, we have never had a great relationship. Um, so it's been about three years. We haven't talked. It's always been like that. I got emancipated when I was 14. So I've always been taking care of myself. Um, I've seen her a baby shot invite. She never showed up. She told me the reason why she didn't want to come. And I had to email her that. Um, she said the reason she didn't want to come is because we haven't thought. And so now my baby is six months.

And I just feel like, I feel bad because it's like he's missing out on my side of the family, my sister, me, and my sister don't talk. But my boyfriend side and everybody, like, my great-grandma side, they're all in his life. And he is so loved. So it's like I'm in a rock and a hard place of that I sent her another email like, hey, your first grandson, your first grandbaby, you know, is about to be seven months next month. Do you want to meet him? But I'm proud of reaching out

I feel like the older generation They don't know how to be accountable And apologize for the hurt that I was raised in So it's just like we don't talk Yeah, now is it your pride as well? Because if you know the older generation Won't do it, you know, for whatever reason They are more stubborn and more setting their ways

Then you know what? Just go break that ice Take the baby to her, go see her Y'all can talk about Talk when you get there, you know what I mean? Yeah, I would just I don't know if she lives in just I don't know age like I'll change the number

I have to email her. Damn, so she kind of sort of don't want to be found. It's like that, but then I know my mama grew up and hurt. Like, one thing I can recognize is that she grew up in a lot of hurt, but when she cuts you off, she's one of them black mothers that cuts you off. She'll need to talk to you don't do nothing. Even if she wants to reach out, she's not going to reach out. So I thought breaking the ice with sending her the baby star invite.

Well, can I ask you a question? You know, I think that sometimes we forget that when we pray for negativity to get removed from our life, you know, sometimes that negativity is going to come in the phone. of people that we think we should love or people that we feel like should love us and it might be our parents. You ever thought to yourself maybe it's just for the best

that y'all not speaking right now? Right now for the long time. But then it's just like I kind of, I was like, you know, to see my boyfriend's side of family so involved and everybody just love on this little happy baby like it makes me year in that relationship. Not even for us, it's for him.

I would give a little more shot. I would still go do it because honestly she could be hurt that you emancipated yourself at 14. She probably, like, you left the nest. You didn't want me as a mother, you know what I mean? And then just on top of that, you don't know what she's been dealing with either. She don't want to be found.

You know what I mean? You contact her through email. She probably could be going through so many other things as well. You're right. But what work has she done on herself? Because that's the same woman that you had to leave at 14. She don't even know because she's not even answered. So you bring your child around her.

Now she's bringing that same trauma she put on you that made you leave at 14 on your child. But she's yearning the relationship and that's still her mother. at the end of the day. Even if you don't take your baby, go find a, you know what I'm saying? Just go talk to her. I think you should talk to your mother without the baby first and, you know, start hearing some of that trauma, seeing where her head at, and then see if she

really wants to meet your child. That's what I would do. It seems like you want to meet her. So if she's the same person, I don't know why you would want your child around. That's still her mom, though. But you know what's crazy, y'all? And I won't hold y'all long, but it's like, see, I never knew about emancipation of 14. She's the one, and I argue it one day after I got a wolf in.

She told me that I needed to get emancipated. So I actually be, you know, a teenager, I looked it up, and the judge actually granted it. And I feel like he didn't think that was going to happen. It was one of them block mound lessons. Like, I'm going to tell you to do something, but it's not going to happen. So he granted it, it's like, that's what took her, like, a turl on her. And so it's just like, I invited her to go to therapy with me years ago.

He didn't want to go. And so from there, it's just been like, okay, I just got to let you go. But if not us, I don't feel like my grandson. Like, not my grandson. Oh, my God. I don't feel like my son should be missing two grandparents. I get you. I don't know.

I just feel like it's mad selfish. And that's the other thing, too. She's got to meet you halfway. She's not trying to be, she's not trying to have a relationship with her daughter. Yeah, well, it's also why you got emancipated. Like, why did you leave? What, you know, what was that, that main argument about? And in this most years ago, I feel like, to be honest, like, I remind her a lot of my dad

and my dad took her through a lot. And, you know, I have a sister that was mad quiet. She don't want to do nothing. And she wasn't out born. but then I was the outbound when I was the one on the step team I was the one always you know trying to do places go places and I was just I'm energetic I have like a past I have ambition about me and so I probably did take her do some stuff I can say that as a teenager yeah but I don't feel like it was nothing to be like oh you need to get your emancipation like you're a teenager yeah what teen don't

take their parents through stuff yeah I think that you are way more mentally emotionally intelligent than she is at at this point and you know I think that it should work both ways yes you should maybe reach out to your mom but she should be trying to reach out to you too and if she hasn't I think that you should look at that as a sign as well give it one more shot definitely don't give up on your mom

just you know what I'm saying definitely you don't know again you don't know what she's going through you know you probably can help her she probably can help you provide you some clarity on why she only want to be communicating through email with you you never know just keep trying but the first meeting shouldn't be all right let's go invite her to therapy

No, just go see her. Just go see her. You never know. Like, when she see you, it may all go away, whatever. You don't know. You don't know what you may spark. That's true. You might walk in and get all the clarity you need.

Oh, I see the crack pipe on the table. Whatever. I see that empty 1942 bottle. Yeah, you're crazy. I'm just saying. Oh, cocaine? Oh, you're on that big thing. Bye.

Get it off your chest. 800585-105.151. We got the latest with Lauren coming up. What are we talking about? We talk about LeBron James. We know the big decision he made now. Speaking of alcohol. What?

Speaking of... What you say speaking out of alcohol? She's so... You know what? You know what? Because it's alcohol. And she don't want to eat the start. She don't want to eat the start.

Why you bring that into it? What was the tease about? No, I know. But he's trying to be smart. No, I'm not. He said crack pipe at first. He didn't say number of... No, no.

No. No. Talk about LeBron James when we come back. It's the breakfast smoke aboard it. Lauren becoming a street fat. Tell her. She gets him from somebody that knows somebody. She gets to detail.

I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest on this. The latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest. On the breakfast club.

Talk to me. Hello, Kulbe. Yes. So, LeBron James has made his decision. He is not retiring. He is drinking more Hennessy. Let's take a listen. Well, everyone's on pins and needles across the country.

You ready to go, LeBron? Where's the powder? Left at home. LeBron? That sounds like that. I just want to know where you're taking your talents this year. What's your decision? Man, this is tough.

And this fall, I'm going to be taking my talents to Hennessy VSOP. VSOP. And this was the conclusion you woke up with this morning? That was the conclusion I woke up with this morning. Why? I feel like it's going to give me the best opportunity to win more at hosting. Not only that, we're in that signature cocktails. We're not having a good time.

We're not impressing guests. We ain't that making memories. We ain't that making it look easy. We ain't at leaving people wanting more. LeBron, appreciate it. I like my decision. W for Hennessy L for LeBron. Okay.

Like, LeBron advertising Hennessy is worse than LeBron promoting a chicken sandwich. That's what I thought it was going to be a new chicken sandwich or something. I would rather have it had it been Amazon, okay? You all really believe LeBron drank Hennessy? This man said he spends millions of dollars on his body. LeBron don't drink no damn Hennessy.

You don't think you have a cocktail every now with him? I don't know. Maybe seeing him out with his wife and ain't traveling. I see him with drinking wine. I mean, the promo, it did what he wanted it to do. I just thought it was whack. LeBron did a decision part, too, to let Lakers fans know y'all just need to get drunk all season

because y'all ain't getting no championship. He's trying to be better at hosting, he said. Maybe he had a lot of parties. Yeah, you want to be a better bartender for niggas? What's up? Well, I decided to be a bartender. It's crazy. LeBron has been working with

Hennessy since 2024, but This new VSOP is like a reimagined. There's like new labeling, new branding, so they're bringing it to us via this decision, decision. Now, when Hennessy posted this, they said the decision has been made, cheers to year 23. But nobody on LeBron's team said,

hey, man, let's come up with a different creative because the decision is going to cause a lot of confusion in the marketplace. People are wondering what my future is going to look like. Nobody thought, like, hey, can we come up with something else? Well, that's what they played into. But I just figured when he actually decided, decided to retire, I just thought that would be

the perfect cherry on the top, right? To do an interview wearing the same shirt he wore at the same time, kind of the same setup and say, you know what, this is my last year. I thought that would have been a dope way to go out. Well, I said, y'all said, y'all ain't think he was retiring. Hell no, no. I know. He averages 24 points a game. He's still dominant. Yeah, I knew it was

going to be an advertising business for something. I just didn't think Hennessy. Well, let me just want people to get drunk. He's been in the liquor business, though. Remember he was doing Lobos? I was working for Lobos. Did he own that? Or have part ownership a little bit? Yeah, he was an investor Lobos. I was working for Lobos when LeBron was investing.

I'm not for sure if he isn't anymore, but I did ask a couple questions to some people that would know about how are you able to now do Hennessy if you are still working with Lobos? It's a cognate. Well, yeah, they said it's a car about it's a cognate. But I just think, I don't know, when I was working with Lobos, it was one of the biggest talking points was LeBron

being at the center of the brand. And a lot of the pushback I would get when I would present it that way would be like, we don't even believe LeBron drinks. Like a lot of people don't, because he's such a big athlete, they don't believe. that he's like a big drinker. So that was tough for us. So I don't know, maybe it's working with him in Hennessy. But he did give a comment in some articles.

LeBron said, it's an honor to continue to partnership with Hennessy. Our first collection was about a share pursuit of excellence and boundary pushing. And this new limited edition is another chapter in that story. The design features his crowning gesture, which is special for him and stands to celebrate and make connections. This is what the bottle is made for. So yeah, shout out to Hennessy on that because they got the people going. Like I said, W. Hennessy L, bro.

Yeah. For, yeah. Now, other news, speaking of announcements, versus is returning. Come on now. Yeah, so yesterday it was announced that Versus will be returning at ComplexCon this year, going down October 25th. It will be cash money records versus no limit records. Fire.

Yes. Now, tickets are available on CultureCon's website to attend. I'm sorry, ComplexCon. I'm saying CultureCon, because we were there last weekend. Complex Com. But the caption says that it will be streamed. And streaming information will be released soon. Now, I did reach out because I was trying to figure out, you know,

All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie. For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know.

A story that law enforcement used to convict six people and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her, or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said. They literally made me say that I took a match and struck and threw it on her. They made me say that I poured gas on her. From Lava for Good, this is Graves County, a show about just how far our legal system will go in order to find someone to blame.

and look in a couple of minutes. So don't go anywhere as the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV. Just hilarious. is Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast

Club. Let's get back in some front page news and some quick sports. The Vegas Aces take on to Mercury tonight at 8 p.m. It's game 3 at WNBA finals. Thank God it comes on at 8 p.m. That is a reasonable time for Unc. Okay? Now, and so quick sports, NFL sports, I should say.

Joe Flacco has been traded to the Bengals. What does that mean for Shador Sanis? What is he at... He's number two now. They're saying Shado is number two. Yep. And Odell Beckham has accepted a six-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance, enhancing drugs. I didn't know he was on performance and dancing drugs. I didn't know that. He hasn't been out there performing.

When the last time Odell played? I don't know, but he's suspended for six games. I don't even know he was on a team. I don't know how he suspended if he's not on the team. That's what he announced on the pivot. I know he was doing the pivot. Yeah, yeah, so he's suspended. And also last night, the Yankees won. They came back. They were down six three. They won nine six. What's up, Mimi? Good morning, Envy. Jess, Chalemaine. How are you doing this morning? Hey, girl. Good morning. Okay, so we start this hour with tensions rising in Chicago.

where Texas National Guard troops have arrived as part of President Trump's expanding immigration crackdown. Now, the move is already sparking outrage from city and state leaders who say the president's actions are unconstitutional. Now, the deployment comes as immigration raids have intensified across the city and protests and suburbs have turned increasingly tense with officers using tear gas and pepper spray on demonstrators. A federal judge hasn't stopped the deployment yet, so for now troops are staying put. but both the Illinois Attorney General and the city of Chicago are suing, saying the president doesn't have the power to take control of the National Guard or send in troops from Texas. Now, Mayor Brandon Johnson, he is slamming the move and signed an executive order banning ICE agents from operating on city-owned property when asked whether he thought the president would follow that order. Let's listen to what he had to say. Well, do I believe this president is going to follow simple law?

Well, it's clear that he doesn't. Right. I mean, he is a convicted felon himself, right? This is the person who released individuals who stormed the Capitol to stage a coup against the American people. This president has spent more time militarizing his own police force than he has using his time in office to make sure that people can afford to eat in this city and across America or have access to health care. And so the White House, they are firing back, accusing the mayor of aiding and abetting criminal legal immigrant killer, rapist, traffickers, and gang members. And Illinois governor, J.B. Prisker, he says, though, this isn't about safety. This is about politics. He's arguing that Trump's troop deployment is less about crime and more about consolidating power ahead of next year's election. Let's listen to that. Well, I believe that one of the reasons Donald Trump wants to send troops into American cities. is because he wants to be able to take control of the 2026 elections.

Now, if they've got troops in cities and it becomes a kind of norm for people, then it won't be abnormal for them when they're going to vote having troops at the ballot boxes. So I believe that is what this is about. It's about intimidating people from going to the polls who would not vote for his parties and about the ability to take control of the elections if it doesn't. go his way. He's absolutely right. And I hate how nonchalant and calm he is about that. I think

that, you know, people should be ringing the alarms about what we could potentially see in 2026 and 2028 if y'all still care about free and fair elections in this country. Absolutely. I totally agree with you too, Charlemagne. That is exactly what he's doing. Meanwhile, in Oregon,

Homeland Security Secretary, Christy Knoem, she made a surprise visit in Portland touring the city's ice facilities and meeting with the governor. there. So we'll keep watching as these deployment of troops keep going out in some of these cities. And meanwhile, on HBCU

campuses, it is homecoming season and the focus is supposed to be on pride and tradition, but something else is sparking conversation. The conservative group Blexid, founded by Candace Owen and Brandon Tatum, and backed by Turning Point USA, is bringing its national educate to

liberate tour to several HBCUs this month. Stops include some of the most iconic campuses. I'm talking Howard Hampton, Florida, A&M, Tennessee, North Carolina, Bowie State, Lincoln University, and these are all taking place around their homecoming celebrations. Now, according to Blacksett's website, the goal is to bring conservative values to life and spark of conversations, powerful conversations on HBCU campuses, but not everyone is welcoming the effort. Critics say showing up during homecoming feels less like outreach and more like picking

a fight, especially during one of the most joyful, unifying times where black campuses are celebrating homecoming. Some student groups are urging classmates not to engage, saying the best response is silent to let empty seats send a message. And across social media, frustration is also growing that the group founded by Turning Point USA would choose this moment a season rooted in legacy and love to make its pitch on HBCU campuses. Yeah, I like both. approaches, you know, you can choose to ignore or you can choose to engage. Nobody's saying fight and start

a war, but you know. Nobody said that. Nobody said that, but that's what they make it seem like on there. No, I said they can ignore or choose to engage. I think there should be an organization that does the exact same type of tour. Like, you know, I personally don't believe any organization should be out there pushing a narrative for any political party right now. I don't think any

party is worthy of that. But there can be groups that can be formed to debate these individuals if they choose to. Like, if they're going to come to these HBCU campuses during homecoming, then instead of just being out there, you know, pushing their, you know, ideology, unchallenged, then engage in the conversation. Now, if they try to bait you into something more than a conversation, then that's when you, you know, disengage, y'all you choose not to even, you know, engage at all.

But I think this is what they want. They want us to talk about it because why would they be going during homecoming the most, you know, the time where everybody's going to be there with the most people? That's true, too. Yeah, but also think about it. They've been to two already and nobody has said anything, right? They went to Johnson C. Smith. They went to Alabama State.

Has anybody mentioned or even seen them or even said? they went? Yeah, we're talking about them now. No, because they just released their tour days. Nobody said, the two schools that they went to, there's no footage, there's no video, nobody, like... By the way, I don't mind what they're doing. You know what I'm saying? Like, when I see people like that, the only thing that makes me say is, okay, well,

if y'all are so against them, don't just be on social media mad, y'all get organized too. Correct. And create a, I don't want to say a resistance movement, but, you know, if you don't like their ideology, create an organization that is going to challenge their ideology, do what they're doing. And I'm never mad with a debate, but the only problem is that Friday, I'm DJing

on the yard. There's going to be about 10,000 people out there. It's me. It's Wyclef. It's Waleigh. It's Brownstone. Like, we really think they're going to go to California. Hempton University. The Hempter Homecoming. Wycleft, Wiley, and Brownstone. Yep. They do one for every, every era of Oh, I'm about to say. That sounds

so random. That's dope, though. They do for every era. So, you know. That is dope. Yeah, I don't, I think people are going to be on the yard. I love Brownstone. I love Brown. All right, y'all. Well, that is your front page news. I'm Mimi Brown. Follow me at Mimi Brown TV for more stories

the Little John records in the club. Please shake that monkey right now. I bet your mama stop twerking on the way to school. Jesus Christ. Yes, little John when we come back is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ NVV, Just Hilarius. Charlamagne de Guy.

We are the Breakfast Club. La Rosa is here as well. And we got a special guest in the building. A motherfuckin' icon guy got there. Don't play with him. I thought he was up here. This is his first time up there, which is crazy. Yeah.

That's crazy. I only seen you on the road. I know, but I thought you've been up here. Ladies and gentlemen. Little Jones. What's up, my brother? Hey, man. I think y'all for having me.

It's about time. There's money. everybody. We don't say good morning enough to our fellow brothers and sisters. That's true. That's right. I was a victim of that until I started to change my mindset. Sometimes I would come down, get in the car, going, you know, on the road. I didn't say good morning. And once I started to change my mindset, I realized that's a good way to start your day and a gesture to someone, whoever you're riding with, you know, the driver, whoever. And then ask them how they're feeling? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes that's also the case. Sometimes just say,

How is your day going? You know? I found myself sometimes, I'm really in tune to my spiritual side. I've been for a long time. Sometimes I might just be in, I remember being in the club, and I might walk by a random person and I can feel that energy. And I'd be like, let me just get you a hug. Oh, wow.

And sometimes that just changes somebody's life. Absolutely. What about when you were the person that might have been creating the energy, like if you felt like some aggressive angreness from this person, But it was your fault because of your set that you just did. Well, you know, I'm going to tell you one time, I was in South Carolina, in a hole-in-the-wall club, and it was supposed to be a night where cash money was supposed to be there.

And they called me because cash money couldn't come. So these folks in South Carolina was mad than a motherfucker. And we was not cash money. Little Johnny Eastside boys show up. And so I understand it's a hostile situation, but I said, I looked out on that. crowd and I said the biggest dude in this crowd I'm about to make him my best friend and I made him my best friend during the show like playing to him giving him drinks and

hyping him up and then he turned like it turned the whole crowd around and then they were fans of us after that but it was it was a way you can always change the energy of a situation if you approach with a calm manner that's why good security don't go and like try to fight somebody they try to diffuse the situation that's the first rule it's diffuse it not be the aggressor. Right. Now, little John, I want to go back. So this is your first time?

Well, real quick, though. What is a little John morning routine like? I knew you were going to ask me that. Yeah. What is the little morning? So this morning, I woke up, had a little water. Because, you know, I do my, I do this Korean facial stuff. So I do, you know, my skin is very important to me.

My skin looks very good. My skin look ladies. It looks really good. Love it. One rule for that is positivity, positive energy, positive thoughts. Because if you're a negative, person, all this negativity, it's going to wear the flesh down. So get up in the morning, do my

skincare routine, brush my teeth, all that good stuff. I'm always in my mind saying affirmations for the day. Even before I go to bed, in my dreams. Like, last night, I was like, it's going to be a great interview. I look at this as one of the biggest interviews I've ever done in my life because

it's a lot to talk about. Charlemagne, you've seen me grow from I think one time we talked, you were like, you came to the radio station and in South Carolina one time that was early on he wasn't even on air yet right were you on air I think it was a phoneer you called in you had just put out a I think you had just put out

beer beer wow so that's 20 years ago yeah we were talking about you having the Confederate flag in the in the video and I was asking you about that so that's you know you've seen the growth and it's I think it's important because yeah you've seen the growth you've seen it from a different angle you've seen it from a different angle you've seen it from a different angle

and you know you guys moved the needle of culture and you had everybody and their grandmama on this show so I think it's one of the most important and you know best interviews I think I'm going to have because of all of that let's claim it I want to go back I want to start from the beginning these are the interviews I love because

for some reason I thought you've been up here before so I want to start when you first got into the music industry right let's start with you started working for Jemain Dupree yeah start from there so how did you hook up with Jermaine Dupree? And what did you do for Jemain Dupree? So I used to be in Atlanta in the 90s, I was like the hottest DJ in the city. I was

the man. I did all the parties. And I would see Jermaine all the time at the clubs. And then I did this one club called the Phoenix Night Club, which was the hottest nightclub in Atlanta at the time. We brought Biggie. We brought Biggie. I got Biggie

and Craig Mack together when they did the Big Mac tour. Wow. So I got them I worked on the radio station but I wasn't the PD and you know how back then you had to go through the PD because you wanted to get the spins

for your artist so Didy you know he let us get Biggie and Craig because he thought I was like the PD and he'd get there and the club is slammed like a million people

and he's like yo what the hell yo we need some more money because this thing is packed and then he found out that I wasn't the PD and so he was extrapist and then he even tried to get the rep

that worked for BMG at the time fired because we got Craig and Biggie for free Wow. Wow. So yeah. That was normal back then when artists were on promo to us? Yeah, but you wanted to go through the station so you can make sure you get the spin and get to look and we wasn't that but we were hot promoters. So I was doing all the hot parties and I would just see Jermain all the time but even if I wasn't

DJ and I was everywhere. Like I had a thing where I was I wanted to be from I called it from bankhead to buckhead I was from the boozy spots to the most hood you can get in Atlanta so I was literally everywhere and Jermaine came to me so he hired me in 1993

I started working at Soso Dev and I was hired to do A&R and street promotions because I was everywhere right so he wanted someone that had respect in the city that could go anywhere and someone like me that I was always out so that was represent Soso Def

from bankhead, like I said, to Buckhead. And what artists did you have being in A&O for Social Deaf at that time? I put together all of the Social Death Base All-Stars. At night, I think the whole Very slept-on era of Atlanta.

Yeah, and that changed that changed music too. Like, it gave us a whole genre that had never been created. Like, had never been done before. And that all started because in Atlanta we used to do, like, it was DJ Jelly, shout out DJ Jelly, shout out,

the J-team, DJ Smurf and all of those guys, they would take, like, slow-jam acape pepellas. Like, say, one famous mix was, Can You Stand the Rain, New Edition, and put it over a bass beat. So they used to do all of these mixes like that. They would just do a whole mix tape.

It would be all bass beats, and then these R&B acapellas. And so I was like, we love this so much in the city. Let's take that and make a record from that nobody made an actual song so i came up with that concept and i went to my boy dj cool collie aka a rodney and then at the same time i met carl mo he used to call the phone that's so-so deaf and play his tracks on the phone interesting story about that so one day i'm

like these tracks is dope so i called him to the to the office and he comes up there with a freaking keyboard and plays the keyboard like just playing the keyboard not like no CDs, no cassette tape, just playing the keyboard. And I'm like, this is crazy. So I ended up using him, and we did my boo. And so, yeah, I did all of the Social Death Base All-Stars. And then out of that, we had Player Poncho. He got signed, and we did a couple of records with Player Pancho.

And Player Poncho is actually how I met the East Side Boys. Wow. Because Player Poncho would always, when he would go out, he would have a whole, like, 20, 10, 20 guys with him. and the east side boys was always with him even if it was just like two or three guys with him and so me and the east side boys just one day we were in the club

and we just started chanting this chant who you with who you with get cross who you with and then everybody in the club started chatting and then I look at Big Sam I'm like we need to turn this into a song and so I know I have access to people with labels and stuff so I call somebody I knew

actually I called Cool Ace this guy named Cool Ace And Cool A's connecting me with this guy then Carlos Glover. And we ended up going in the studio and we made the song Who You With. And that started everything for Little John as an artist. I'm glad you mentioned Sam and Bo, too, because people always seem to forget about the East Side Boys. Yeah.

What did they bring to the table? What made Little John and the East Side Boys such an amazing group? We were the sound of the rowdy guys in the back of the club. That's what we were. We were the mess that were turned up in the back, that you just be looking back like, make sure they ain't coming over here with that. So we were that.

And what people don't understand about crunk music, I don't some people are like, why did it do what it do? Why did it spread? Why did it become big? Because it was an outlet of energy for black youth. When you went to the club, you had a hard-ass week,

you had a hard life, whatever the fuck was going on in your life, you hear that fucking crunk music and you get in that damn mosh pit and you let all of that out and you feel amazing. Yeah. You know what I mean?

So that's why crunk music was able to reach so many people. That's why I still like going, like I see you talking about all the time about knuck as Negro spiritual. Negro spiritual. Yeah. And it is. Like it touches your soul in a certain way. And I think we do in like crunk music tap into music to the ancestors because they were

chanting and so on and so forth. What did you do when you were band from clubs? I remember in college there was some. In college, there was some clubs that were like, you cannot play none of that in this club. Yeah, put your hood up and all that stuff. We just kept going. Because when you tell somebody you can't have it,

they wanted more, you know. I've seen people, I was in Louisiana one time, we did a show, and they got so turned up. They started fighting the police in the club. Amazing times. Amazing times, man. Yeah, it was crazy. I think it's just a testament to, like,

we just brought something different, you know? And, like, the kids now think they are turning up, but they have no idea what a real turned up time was from the 2000. And Get Crunk was such a great record, because I didn't think you could get crunker than Kings are Crunk. You know, I'm not even joking. I didn't think you could get crunker than that, but as soon as you hear who in my, Bo Hagan being me, you like, God, name.

Yeah, Mohegan killed that salute Bo Hagan out there. How did you even have the mindset to take that to another level? How did you take that energy to another level? That beat was produced by Lil J. by Liljee, who produced Nuck if you buck. Wow. So it was time to, you know,

come and work on the album and, you know, everybody down with B&Me. Of course, people that don't know, Crime Mob, part of that was through B&Me. So we are part of putting them out there. So, of course, I call all of the squad, you know, Trilville helped me write some of the songs. And, yeah, Liljay sent me,

I think he sent me some beats, and that was one of the beats, and I was like, this is insane. Wow. I thought it was one of the cruckest beats. ever too absolutely I think my favorite beats that I've produced or co-produced are been on is get crunk and what you gonna do what you're gonna do is unique I was in New York when I did that beat I remember I was on TBT and Steve Gottlieb and

shout out to Brian Leach my boy Brian Leach he was the A&R at the time he was like yo you got to go in and knock out this song for this I think it was like a Christmas album or something Christmas Crunk album that Steve Gottlie wanted to put out. And I'm like, he can't put no fucking album out called Crump without me. So I was like, fuck this guy. And so I was in New York and Brian was like, you got to go in and record this song. So I was angry when I made that piece.

I'm never mad when I make tracks. But that's one of the only beats I've ever made when I was angry. And that's why I sound so aggressive. Because I was mad that I had to go in the studio and record it. I wanted to just go out. like I was like I'm going to the club he was like no you got to go and do this song and so that's my

anger coming out through the drummers did you have a trademark the word crink I can't remember probably he did all my ad lips I know that because you're the face of crunk but to me I would have to give I would take three six mafia are probably the so that's another argument

going around it's an argument that says Memphis started crunk here's my here's what I will say If we in Atlanta, you couldn't be Atlanta in the 90s and not be listening to eight ball, MJG. You couldn't be riding around not listening to MasterPee. Master P changed the landscape of the South. The South.

Period. That's right. He was the first one that really got us rowdy. I would say it was Master P. But we was listening to Ball & G. And, of course, 3-6 Mafia came around that. You think P got us rowdy before 3-6? I think about it, bowed, bowed.

Bout it, Boutt it. Yeah, but tear the club up. I bet you won't hit him. B-B-B-B-Git-Hit-Hit was 97. What year did it, Bout, it come out? I was in college, it had to be 95. I think it was like 95. 95.

I remember what happened was in the club, in Atlanta. It was playing bass music. And then when Master P came, that was over. Bowed-about. That was 95. Definitely, I was a freshman in college. That was the record. M-B-B-Hus in the hood was getting no-limit tattoos.

1995. 95, yeah. Exactly. That part of the album is true. That's what changed it for us. So I will say Memphis is part of the influence, but it started for us with Master P. Master P. That about it, about it, just changed everything.

But we are influenced, but it's all different sounds. But it all intertwines and works together. What moment made you realize Crunk had officially crossed from sovereign energy to a global move? Coming up doing MTV, they let me get in Times Square on a double-deck of bus with Lil Scrappy on TRL. doing what you going to do. Brud, MTV? I was going to say MTV, too, because I remember watching the video music awards.

I forgot what year was. They played Get Low going in the commercial break. And the audience went crazy, and Justin Timberlake was wilding. And I just remember thinking to myself, oh, Get Low is out of here. And then we end up performing Get Low at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Get Low, yeah. Lean Back. That was a pre-insense. same year for me. Can you tell us the origin story of lovers and friends? So in Atlanta, we go to strip club for everything. So we always, you know, I was in the strip club one day and the DJ played the Michael Sterling Lovers and Friends. And I was like, huh, that could be pretty cool for Usher to do. So let's back up. So this is before Usher's album is done. I give Usher the Michael Sterling on the CD like, check this out. We should do this over. This

I don't listen to it. He don't listen to it. So we're on my album. So I'm like, I'm going to take that lovers and friends idea and do it for my album. So I do the beat over and I let us know, yo, I got this joint for us. Like, come, you know, let's do it. So he flies in, he records it, and he's out. And after he does his part, so I'm just like, wow, this is a smash.

So I call Luda. I'm like, bro, we got another one. Like, I need you on this ASAP. Send it to Luda. He did his part. And then I go in last. Because I'm not the rapper. And so I was like, I need to take my time to make sure my verse is as catchy as possible

because I can't compete against ludicrous. And then it's usher. Like, come on. So I was like, let me take something from this record. We had a record called, it's a record we did with Ubi. I forgot the name of it. Nothing's free. How you forget that?

That's a classic. Nothing's free. So we did nothing free like in the 90s. And so I was like, that's shoday part. was really catchy on that song, but it was regional. Nobody really heard it out of the South. I was like, let me take that same little thing and put that in Lovers and Friends,

and that will be the little catch for my verse to make it catchier. And little did I know that that was going to be like people's favorite verses because it's so simple. It's so simple and it's catchy. And yeah, that's one, that song went number one without a video. Why we never got a video for that record? Because it was the labels and,

superstar this and superstar ad and da da da da da da but number one song rap song of the year without a video in the 2000s is impossible what made you do the meditation of them so that's totally far the other end of the spectrum yeah turning 50 turned 50 a lot of things started to happen in my life first thing I hit me was like I asked myself what makes you happy and I said damn making sure everybody else good

but that's not what makes me like what makes me happy I couldn't really tell myself and so I was like you know what I need to kind of put myself first like I'm not happy in this marriage like so I said I want to divorce

also around the same time me and my my good friend Doug Davis we talk like every year because he calls gives me because he's like a couple months younger than me so he's like

oh you're old man so we're talking and he was telling me he wanted to introduce me to somebody that was in this space and I was like oh that's interesting

because I've been listening to like all of this like bineural beats to sleep and relax and ocean and rain and all of this type of stuff

For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls came forward with a story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy killed her. We know. A story that law enforcement used to convict six people

and that got the citizen investigator on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her, or rape or burn or any of that other stuff,

They literally made me say that I took a match and struck and threw it on her. They made me say that I poured gas on her.

Let's get models in. Let's get them out. And the models themselves, they carried scars that never fully healed. Until this day, honestly, if I see a measuring tape,

I freak out. The Model Wars podcast peels back the glossy cover and reveals a high-stakes game where survival meant more than beauty. Hosted by me, Vanessa Grigoriatis, this is the untold story of an industry built on ruthless ambition. Listen to Model Wars on the IHeart Radio app,

and she would give me, like, also, like, just positive. She would just keep me, try to keep me in a positive mindset. And she had been through a rough divorce, too, so she can give me some insight and just, you know, help me keep my head up. So we went in, we recorded these albums, and, you know, this time of my life is feeling like I'm doing what God intended me to do

but what's amazing is everything that got me here I was supposed to do and even like all of the music that I've given people gave people positivity so it's always been positivity but it's meaning more now when someone tells me I never meditated you help me meditate

I was having trouble getting over this grief of losing someone your meditation about grief help I'm inspired to You know how many people have called me about getting in the gym? Yeah. It's insane. Like, celebrities, all kind of people are like, you inspired me to get healthy.

So I feel now like I'm doing what God intended me to do. It took me a long time to get here, but this is, it's the time it's supposed to be. And crazy, I was thinking about this the other day. I met Mr. Farrakhan at the Source Awards. Luton. One time. And he basically told me, he said, you got power. You got a voice.

And he basically was kind of trying to tell me, like, use it. And that, like, that stuck with me, like, I'm like, okay. But now I'm using my voice and my power in a good way to push positivity into the world. So that is what makes you happy. That's what, that's what, you know what, you know what, yeah, it makes me happy. Just to be, just to do good, you know, just to do good because all that comes back. And when you, like a guy came to me, I did the Coligard thing, right? A guy came to me in the club one night, in the club and was like, I did that coliard test because of you.

And it came back positive. And he did, he didn't have colon cancer, but he had polyps. So just stuff like that. It just makes me feel like I'm doing good in the work. You know, my brother? For sure. It's inspiring people and being a good role model to my son. I have a daughter now, you know, she's 10 months old.

Congratulations. I look at life, like, with health, like, I got to be here for her. You know what I'm saying? I got to be here for her first day of school. I got to be here for high school graduation, walk her down the aisle. So health is even more important to me. It was something I was doing to just, you know, live a long, full life. Even more so now, I have even more motivation because of my daughter and her mother.

I've got to be here for them. You know what I'm saying? It's crazy to see you cry because a lot of people who never even thought you had eyes. No, you know what? Black men, we need to cry more. I agree. We need to cry. When you get more in tune to your higher self and you stop vibrating at these low frequencies,

you can let yourself let the energy flow because we should. We don't have to be tough all the time. And you're an advocate for therapy. I push all brothers we don't have to suffer in silence we suffer in freaking silence call your homie sometimes to just be like my shit are you good

how you doing not just period but how you mentally doing bro because that one little conversation could make him not go do some stupid shit or take his life or whatever you know so I started doing therapy I push anything any knowledge

that I got I try to share with everybody because we got to help each other that's right we always we got. For sure. Y'all got me up here crime. It's good.

You said today was going to be a good day, great. You might have needed to release. Really good. Do you think people truly understand the loneliness that can come with success and entertainment? No, because they just see the private jets and the trips and all that.

They don't realize, you know, sometimes you can't go nowhere because people bugging you. You can't spend time with your loved ones without people bugging you. or the I got to make another hit record or you know what I mean

like or even when you start to go down you're not as hot as you were people not picking up the phone and all that. Yeah it's a lot of most people couldn't deal with this life they could not deal with it because it's too much pressure then people on the internet with all their opinions and all of this and that and it's a lot of

pressure that you cannot be built weak to be in entertainment. my last question when you think about legacy now how much of it is about peace and purpose rather than i guess the plaques in the parties and all that i think my legacy is going to be all about positivity because every step of the way it's been cronk was positive it was a positive release now in my latter years it's meditation mindfulness get therapy fellas i'm gonna tell everybody out there get therapy that's right get a therapy if it's going to through it. You should not be left to your own devices to deal with some serious issues.

Sometimes you need to talk to someone that's a qualified person. And I did EMDR. Did you ever do EMDR? I never did EMDR. EMDR is amazing because it taps into your subconscious. When I did EMDR, stuff came out that I didn't even really didn't know what's there. So it can tap to the, it can find the root of why you got that trauma. I was able to go to my childhood self and say, It's okay. Wow. I'm here. It's fine.

You're loved, you're appreciated, you know, all of that. And it helped me to get past whatever that was. And the more you do it, the more stuff comes to you and you just realize. This is why I'm the way I am. I can now get past this and I can change these habits, you know, and I can be living more, I can live a better life. Wow. Man, little John, you are an icon.

That deodorant should be stronger. What is made for a man, strong enough for women? What is it be strong enough? You know what I mean? No, I don't know today. I do not know what you mean now today. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Okay. Is she a man? You're talking about the odor? It's made from both. Let's get to the ladies with Lauren. Lauren becoming a straight fit. Tiva! Man, she gets them from somebody that knows somebody.

She gets the detail. I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest on this. The latest with Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have facts. Sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest.

On the breakfast club. Talk to me. So, sweetie. not the reason that Offset and Cuevo are no longer friends, nor is she the reason that Cardi being Offset divorced. Offset sat down with Kiki Palmer on this is Kiki Palmer and talked

about that rumor that has been circulating. Let's take a listen. Was there truth to you and sweetie? No, man. It was a rumor man, and I feel like it was something deeper than that for the split of me and bro. I don't really want to touch on but it's something deeper than that. I think that was just like a, there was a thing that I

was a bug that I heard. I think people was trying to tear my situation down in that situation. You think there were business people that were plotting on you both. For sure. Yeah. And they were creating you guys, stopping you guys from being strong so that y'all couldn't go together against that.

Exactly. Yeah. I would be seeing headlines. And I men, we men, so we don't play those games. We don't even know how to do that. And so it was just like, that was a weird thing, though. That was kind of crazy. Now, this was a really good interview.

I mean, he also has done some really good interviews in promoting his album. But this one was a really good interview. and I think it's because he was very comfortable with Kiki Palmer. They have a friendship that dates back years. Oh, really? Yeah, and I learned that in this interview. He said that Kiki Palmer used to be like in a studio with them back in the day in Atlanta. Oh, yeah, I didn't know that because I was going to say salute to Kiki because, you know, folks love Kiki Palmer so much that they never call her messy.

Because that was Lauren and Jess asking that question. Oh, my gosh, she got into the thing. But they seem very comfortable. They seem very comfortable. Yeah, he was. The Kiki's a bit warmer. I'm trying I'm learning

I'm learning You know You know we're not We're learning We are Yeah we are Yes Yeah go ahead

Okay Now Kiki Palmer And Offset also talked About takeoff's passing And Offset revealed something To her for the first time When people like that pass away Especially so suddenly

It had to make you think You know what did you think You know what I'm saying To be honest which I never really said It's like I felt like I had that like some of responsibility Was on me because What if I didn't go so low

What if I just thugged it out with the business not being right? You know what I mean? Maybe we wouldn't even been right there or in that place because I just know how we move when I'm around a little bit. Like, it's just I could read the room a little bit more. See, hey, this ain't the play. We need to get up out of here. I'm the one that's going to say it.

And then I wasn't there. So it's like not having control or something like that so close to you. And then people talking, not knowing what they talk about. That's tough. That's tough. Saying him with me or saying this and that and that. That's like tough, man. But all I can do is.

I feel like I never forget my roots, right? So me pushing, as long as I keep pushing myself, I'm still representing that because that's still my family. So then the day, I'm still Amigo. Damn, imagine dealing with that. People saying that he ain't messed with him and all of that before he died and then that wasn't even the case. But people, that's always the case.

People never really know what's happening and what's going on. Yes. When something tragic happens to somebody you love, you always feel like, man, if I was dead and maybe I could have prevented this. Yeah. I was reading that, I was in his book, had a similar story with his best friend

well with somebody who was close to him who felt like Allen wouldn't have been caught up in a situation if he was there got you got you okay well yeah so they also talked about speaking of people thinking that they know things also says in this interview if he could not be famous right now he would not be because the new

fame is too much people have opinions you can't express yourself they think they need to know you and then they get into the Cardi B conversation off of that and he talks about how he handled the situation Let's take a listen. Is there anything that you wish you would have done differently? I should respect her that way more.

You know what I mean? I made bad decisions as a man, like stepping out. Like, got to take that on the chin. Like, that's why when she left, I had to take that on the chin. Because, like, I could have been way, we got so much our kids to live for. I was being selfish. And I could say that as a man. I'm a grown man.

You know what I mean? I could say that. I wish it wasn't so much internet stuff going on. I didn't got out of pocket a couple times because, bro, yeah, you feel like you getting bullied. Like, I used to never say, you know, I try to recently just say something just like to try to defend myself because the narrative be nasty sometimes on me

and it don't be that. Yeah, he says that, you know, he said this is the story for them because they're both superstars and music and all you see is the stories about their divorce and the public things that have happened with them. And, you know, he's taking accountability for that.

So he's trying to move forward. He also said, too, that he's ready for the divorce to be over. I know Cardi has said when she was here that, you know, they're trying to move things along but they're going back and forth about things. But he says he's ready for it to be over. Could you imagine,

you're dealing with something with your wife at the time, whatever it is, y'all going back and forth and then the media throws fuel on it, you know, and the media might not necessarily know the truth.

So it makes things worse. So I understand why he was emotional. And a lot of times you don't owe it to the media. You know what I'm saying? Like a lot of people get online. He's one of them who's just not going to get online and say everything. Like, you know,

the rebuttal and all the opinions. Even going back to the Migo situation, right? Because everybody, we were speculating when he, broke up. Man, what happened? The Cuevo want to, you know, the Cuevo want to be, the Beyonce or the group or whatever, whatever. All the time, he said

it was bad business. You know what I mean? Yeah, he talked about the bad business. That's also things that people were speculating about. Yeah, he said that their plan was for all of them to always have their own thing. And we saw them do that. They all did different music. They had their own projects. It was fashion. But they were always supposed to come back together. But he said

his issue was the business. It wasn't them. And then, you know. Right. And also, too, man, offset was telling a tale as old as time. So many men wish they could get a redo. Okay, so many men realize how we messed up after the fact. Thank God for all us men who made it through and thank God

for all the women who have forgiven our stupid asses over and over and over again. Okay? And my brothers, if you, somebody called up here earlier this week or was that last week? If you get the opportunity last week, if you get the opportunity right now to, you know, pivot and change your ways before

she get all the way fed up, you better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better do it. You better not F it up, boy, the good women are not easy to come by. When a woman's fed up, Lord have mercy, ain't nothing you can do about it. Nothing. She's eternal, you will turn it to a hoe.

I don't know about her laugh. She'll turn on you, or turn it to a hoe. I hope you, I don't want her to go. He's okay. All right, then, just get it together, because you, you all was hoeing first. I want the whole back. My horn ain't got nothing to do with your horn.

You don't get a nigga back like that. You're going to hold? You think hold and hold? I cheat. I cheat back. There you go. All. No, I'm not anymore. You get clemity? Who fault of that? No, I didn't get clemity. All of us. Now, we all sitting here clemody it up. I ain't never got it. See, I'll go too far. Nope. You up? All right. That was the latest with Laura.

Shalomann, who you give me a donkey, too? Four after the hour, we need a man from Baltimore. Do you know him? No. I don't know. I don't know his name. I don't know his name. What is it? Does he know him? His name is Micah Narta. He needs to come to the front of the congregation. Okay. He actually need his ass beat, but we'll discuss. Damn, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. You're checking out the Breakfast Club.

Donkey Up the Day. Maybe. Damn, the he-ha, again? It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm 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. Called Donkey of the Day, and it really caught me off guard.

Damn, Salame, who got the Donkey of the Day today? Well, just hilarious. Somebody from Baltimore. Okay, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday. October 8th goes to Micah Narta. He is a 24-year-old man from Baltimore, Maryland, the Cockiesville area. Jess, are you familiar? I am.

Okay. What kind of area is that? It's like the county a little bit. All right. Yeah. Well, Micah is in jail rightfully so. And he's one of those individuals that makes me as a father want to own more guns, okay? Young men like him, with a reason seasoned girl dads like myself have to stay in shape, okay?

You got to make sure you know how to use a knife. Right? And you've got to teach your daughters how to do those things, too, because you never know what type of predator is lurking. Now, Micah's been arrested for disorderly conduct after he reportedly approached women in Baltimore County with written threats soliciting sex. What do you mean? He was approaching women in Baltimore County with written threats soliciting sex, Uncle Shala. Well, Micah decided that he wanted to go to businesses in the area and make them read from a notebook that contained demands for sex.

Now, I'm questioning if Michael was born and raised in Baltimore Because why would he just assume That these young ladies in Baltimore can read? Wow. What? Wow, I didn't mean it like that I meant like why would he assume that these young ladies in Baltimore Would stop and read what he had written down?

Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I mean. Don't play with me. I'm just saying The police found four notebooks in Micah's bag According to the charging document, Investigator said one contained a letter saying I will shoot you with a gun and kill you.

Come with me and find a place to have sex and do your best and don't do anything about it and don't tell the police and don't tell anyone even if you have the opportunity. This is true. That's the real lesson. You didn't make that lot of out? No, this is the real letter.

Jesus. The investigator said he spelled these words by replacing O's with ease and he used a lot of Ws. More Ws than the I Show speed chat. Now I made that part up, but the letter was real. Now, I'm going to tell you something, man. We have to start dragging men like this, okay?

We have to drag them the way people from Baltimore drag words like do, okay? Not only should the village be allowed to put belt the ass. I think we should charge people like Micah for what they were attempting to do. We all seen the movie Minority Report back in the day where they used to charge. you for what you was thinking about doing.

Okay, we need to charge Micah with rape, assault, kidnapping, whatever he was implying he wanted to do to these women or whatever he would have done to these women if he would have gotten the opportunity. This guy, according to charging documents, walked up the women on their way to work and showed them pages in a notebook that instructed one woman to follow him to a place to have sex with him.

It also contained the message instructing the woman, not to yell are called a police because he had a gun and would shoot her bruh disorderly conduct not a strong enough charge okay whatever man or men are in these women's lives should be allowed five minutes with this guy okay no fair ones either he should be allowed to get jumped all right can you imagine someone walking up on your mom sister aunt daughter okay I need five minutes bro and just like Chuck Schumer or Hakeem Jeffries I'm right a strongly worded letter to this guy before I put my foot up his ass. Okay, I want him to feel

the same horror, the same terror that he made those women feel. Can you imagine just walking on the street and somebody hand you and you read it? And it's telling you that if you don't come with me to have sex, I'm going to shoot you. I want him to feel the same terror those women felt. Okay. I want you to read what I'm going to do to you before me and my village give you some discipline. Okay. Also, this is where our correctional facilities fail us because Micah has done this before. He told police in D.C. that he wanted to speak to the president. And at the time

he had a notebook saying he wanted to shoot somebody. Okay. I'm assuming that somebody was the president. And then in July, he left a note instructing a Walgreens clerk to leave money out of the Italian grill and threaten to shoot the clerk if they didn't. See, the problem is instead of chasing a life of crime, he should

have been a screenwriter. Okay? You should have been writing books or something. Go get your Jordan Peele on. Go get your Stephen King on. Go get your essay Cosby on. Okay. You're walking around with all those notebooks, okay, writing, but don't got one album, not even a mixtape, not even a book self-published on Amazon? You're not applying yourself, Micah. Now, I think you sick in the head and need some professional help and your ass whip. But this is why when people like him are in custody, send him somewhere where he can get his mind right.

Send him somewhere where he can get some actual help. Okay, we call these places correctional facilities, but ain't no correcting going on. See if therapy can work on this man and see if we can misdirect this sick perverted energy, there's something positive, okay? He walking around Baltimore you know doing stuff like this, he could be doing something productive, like actually writing

books and screenplays. In the meantime, police said that anyone who has encountered, Micah, should contact 911, or the Baltimore County Police Department at 410887-1823. Do you know that number by heart, Jess? No, I don't. Oh, you should. I'm sure it's been called on you before. Please give Micah

Anarta, the biggest he-ho. Have you heard of this young man? No, I don't know, Mike Anata. First of all, he is 24. That's true. So he's very young. But you would have, I think you would have heard about somebody walking around with a notebook. Why was she?

The same way back in the day where you knew about the guy that used to be. Oh, yeah, you're right. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, well, we had somebody like named Bunny Man, like in Baltimore. He used to be in the woods or whatever. He used to snatch kids. That was like a whole little thing Was it real?

Yeah, absolutely I never seen it Because he used to I have a bunny outfit on Like a bunny car sing on He used to wear kids And take them in the woods For real

Why y'all didn't even Wabbit hunting Because why don't You don't be that in Baltimore Ain't anybody Can't hunt in the Wabits You should have had You should have your pistol

out there looking for this little Wabit No I'm sorry I was like 16 So I didn't have a pistol Why nobody called police on him? I don't know I don't know

Listen how do we listen What's this about Mike Anata I don't know him now I don't know him But that is weird. I'm glad that he's in jail because that's a mental

situation. Yeah, you're walking up just to random women? You could be tased, you could be stabbed, somebody could have did anything. He should have been. Right, he should have been. But I'm saying, like, yeah, he's out of his mind. Because that's, honestly, if somebody walked up to you with a letter and they tell you they're going to shoot you, that's self-defense, anything I do after that.

Exactly. Anything I should be. Anything I do after that should be self-defense. And he wasn't in Baltimore City doing this. He was not. He was in Cockiesville. Which is the county That's more suburban Yeah, he Yeah, walk down North Avenue and do it

Walk down Monroe Walk down Fulton Walk down Emiston Avenue Poplar Grove and do that He wasn't Mike Anada would have been It would have been rest in peace I'm telling you

No, the city girls don't play that Okay Well, we're a money man And the city It was different Yeah, yeah, money man was different He had a whole bunch of equipment From what I'm told

What kind of equipment come on me i'm just asking he was 16s you don't remember yes but i was even younger than that i i started hearing about him when i was like what 10 the bunny man yes he lived in the woods leon day parks if you know you know people used to come to that it was a school right in front of the park

and they said kids and mrisle used to just get snatched up by the bunny man and alvin gray never did that movie you know what all the movies you've been doing alvin green you ain't never did the bunny man No, no. The bunny who lived in the woods? Yes. A bunny who snatched kids out the woods.

Yes, the man dressed as a bunny. All right. What are we doing? All right. All right. Well, thank you for that don't kid today. I got $3,000 to shoot it. Oh, no.

Because who's victims? And asked Sholome in about the guy that he's talking about. That used to be in New York City. Yeah, who's the guy. I mean, I don't even know how to. It was a dude who used to, like, stand outside the 40-40 club and he'd be wanking. For real? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He came up here with John, too. Just in public. Just don't care who walking. around. He came up here. He made eye contact with you and just started going to town. Nobody called the police on him? Nope. What? They did? No, you got to arrest it. He was out there mad times doing it, though. He came back over and over.

Oh, yeah, that's what you're saying. They keep releasing people like that instead of putting them some way. That's right. He called eye contact with Envy one time. Had to come to the station to get that feeling. He came up here. He was actually in the room. He wanted to make out. Huh? You last? You don't remember. Yeah, he was up here. I don't remember that way. Why are you a lot of men?

He'd be telling on this stuff. Right. Tell me actually came up there. Yeah, I ain't never read that in the book, I didn't, I know. When we come back, and Asie Nicole will be joining us. They're the co-host of the new BET Show 106N sports.

It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne de Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Mauna Rosa is here as well. We got some special guests in the building.

We do. We have Ashty Nicole. Welcome. Hello, hello, everyone. And we have Cam Newton. Welcome back. What's up? Where do you want to go today, Ken?

I'm trying to tell you, we can go to lamp and we can keep it right. We can go both ways, boys. Where are you going to go? Travis Hunter, Dion Sanders. All right. Which way do you want to go? Bo Jackson. Oh, it was a BET Show 106 in sports.

Let's start with Travis Hunter. Since you already said his name first, you jumped out the box. What's your thoughts? Love him. Travis Hunter came through my C-1-N program, which is an all-star team where I use football as a way to show kids or young athletes that you can change your life. Travis Hunter is a person that does not get respected enough because he has not did anything wrong.

He's been exceptional on a football field and yet we couldn't find no dirt on him so we have to attack somebody close to him. Never had a DUI? Nope. Not a domestic. from what I've heard and seen and seen in firsthand, he's an unbelievable person. Oh, he does a smile.

It's all he does is smile. Yes, he does. And I was rocking with Travis when his smile wasn't even, you know what I mean? He had to crack smile. And so much so, like I said, his younger brother, Travis, plays on my team now.

And this is my way of philanthropic initiatives where, yeah, a lot of people can give back in their own perspective and respective ways. But for me, I use a game of football to say, hey, bro, you don't got to rob. You ain't got to steal. You ain't got to, you know, sell drugs. Like, bro, this pig skin right here can take you places.

It's gotten me everywhere that I ever wanted. And when I've seen Travis at his age to see how he has morphed into the individual. Now, of course, everybody's entitled to their own opinion about who he is. Oh, he a sucker, he or this or this or that. He's married. Yeah. Ah, come on. Why is this taking so long?

All I know is what I've been told, and that's a half-truth is a whole lie. For almost a decade, the murder of an 18-year-old girl from a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, went unsolved, until a local homemaker, a journalist, and a handful of girls, came forward with a small. story. I'm telling you, we know Quincy Kilder, we know. A story that law enforcement used to convict six people, and that got the citizen investigator

on national TV. Through sheer persistence and nerve, this Kentucky housewife helped give justice to Jessica Curran. My name is Maggie Freeling. I'm a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, producer, and I wouldn't be here if the truth were that easy to find. I did not know her and I did not kill her Or rape or burn or any of that other stuff that y'all said it They literally made me say that I took a match And struck and threw it on her They made me say that I poured gas on her

That's all gone. In the 1980s, modeling wasn't just a dream. It was a battlefield. Book, book, book, book. Like deals. Let's get models in. Let's get them out. And the models themselves?

They carried scars that never fully healed. Till this day, honestly, if I see a measuring tape, I freak out. The Model Wars podcast peels back the glossy cover and reveals a high-stakes game where survival meant more than beauty.

He has a family. was what couple goals was supposed to be. I should take a page out of his book.

Yeah, uh-huh. We're gonna get to that. Why you look like that, Ashley, what he said that, huh? Because he's cap-in. Like, he knows exactly where he stands. When he comes to that, he made it very clear. He's made it clear in the last 24 hours. But I don't know.

We had a conversation about learning your significant other's body counting names, right? Oh, no. But this is the thing. This is what we say we understand. I don't care. Is it not real? Is it not real though? You want to know that?

I need to know. If you're in the same industry. Talk to me. Talk to me. Talk to me. Come to me. Here you ask me and then I'm going to tell you my team. Here is where I think I agree and disagree.

Now, if it is a situation where I'll use cameras as yeah since you sit next to me, this is just an example. Use John Doe. You John Doe. You John Doe. Can we just go put that on. We won't. Pay attention to one on six and sports. One on six in sports.

Let me use John Doe. October 15. If John Doe has a certain profession. Correct. And there is a possibility that John Doe is going to run into Jim Doe. Because they're in the same world. Then yes, I feel like that is something that you need to vocalize and you need to be honest about because you never want your person to walk into a room

and everyone's on the joke except for that person, right? You're about the interview your man's X-1. He popped down. You didn't know. And he laughed. He laughed. He got an ace of spade, tug. What?

No, no, no. She's laughing. She's smiling. Yeah, I mean, that's what I'm saying. Like, if you're going to cross past, there's a possibility for you to cross past with someone, then, yes, I think that that should be vocalized. But if it's like you're a hometown, you know, crush and they're never going to cross. Like, he don't need to know that. See, that's none of your business.

The only reason you got to keep close to the chest. But, but if that's your men, y'all together, y'all building, like, real life at our ages that we're doing, you got to take him back to your hometown at some point. So I think it's certain people. think it's certain people certain places certain times right so not everybody may be a bit insane but if you know okay babe look we're going back to my homecoming home town but you're not going on a block you know right you might go see mama house certain certain places certain times so if you take in your person you love to wherever i think it's just a conversation of like in this part of my life here was a person that may have been important because i especially if you know you could run into them

because you're in these places all the time he's not i will say this i i recently went to somebody that I'm like getting to know's hometown and he didn't point out and give me names nothing like that he basically said like we're walking into this party there are going to be some people there that I dated and high school whatever so now you're looking it wasn't like is this person this is her name this is it was just like you'll be on your piece and she's hugging you too long she's hugging you too long I don't feel like you got to know to everything to I was on with you now. Like, that should be enough.

I think everything is, like, not realistic. You can't know every single thing. Yeah, I do. But certain things, like, if I'm walking in that party, we ain't got to do, like, an Instagram run through, but, like, we need to have a conversation of, like, okay, do you still speak to these people? Is this woman going to walk up to me and, like,

yes, if you're going to be in proximity, like, what is happening? Yeah, if you're going to be in proximity, whether it's a one-off, whether it's, you know. How? Let's hear you can. Let's hear you can. One-offs. You don't need to know every person.

I'm still talking? The simple question is, I just want to know your list. I don't care to what. One of them still, you still smash my shirt. Does it count? If you're not off or 10 off,

it still counts. It's still off. You got out. Hello. You're not adding it. You're not telling you a girl like, you know, I was in Turks and Kekos 10 years ago and my boys and I hit so.

That's why you lead. Okay, that's why you lead with everything so you don't mess up a vibe because you're trying to explain. Hey, hey, hey, before we go in here, there's a chance that DJ, like, no. Sometimes you can give up too much information, Cam. Sometimes there is a thing that we all have to understand. What works for me may not work for you.

That's fast. Cinderella's shoe was fit for Cinderella. My name is Cam Newton. I can't put on Cinderella shoe. You know, that's right. So that's cool. So I'm like, yo, we get into this, that'd never be me. And I love going on them comments.

hitting your profile and realizing like, baby, you were never meant for me? Damn. In what way? Oh boy. Damn. You have more posts than followers.

There's nothing that we can relate to. So I appreciate your insight. I needed that impression. So this show is more than sports, obviously. But going back to your church and Kekos comment, right? You know, like, all right, he don't need to know about a turk. Look, I'm going to tell you. you, I'm married right now.

My husband wanted to know if I ever had a one night stand. You know what I'm saying? Safe as this is that night in Turks and Caicos. Right. Yeah, yeah, babe. One night I did go, you know,

me and my cousins went to certain Kikos and I, you know, I smashed the nishus down and drink. But did you pull up that man's IG profile, phone number, like, like, you know, you got to keep something.

Let me say this. A lot of times, it's not even about what it is more so than are you willing to tell me. Yeah. Because now it's a deeper rooted issue.

If you're going to go to hell with this information, what else are you willing to keep or what do you get to decide what's worth telling me or not? If I'm asking you what I deem is extremely surface level and extremely innocent, because I'm not judging, I'm happy, baby. I'm not going nowhere. I already know before me there was somebody or somebody's. Let's talk about it. I believe in a relationship there should not be anything that's off limits. That's just me. Like so much so that it's like, yo, no, I ain't going to go there.

But it's certain things that I think like you can't really truly be in love with a person if you don't really truly know a person. And that's me. And like I said, Cinderella's shoe is for Cinderella. It's not mine. Now, how did y'all get together? How do y'all decide to do this show? It kind of just happens.

I mean, I don't know, our experience was a little bit different, or maybe it was the same. So I was in the middle of the NBA playoffs, so I also worked for CBS sports, and I got a call that they were doing castings and kind of test shoots, pairings in L.A. Last minute, can you fly to L.A.? Kind of can't. I'm in the middle of the playoffs, like, big deal, can't move. Cam and I did hours virtually. He was actually in L.A. and met with a whole list of people from so many guys that we know and women that we know that, um, doing their things in individual industries. And Cam and I, even virtually, just had a chemistry that was just drastically different

than what he had with anyone when he was in L.A. And obviously, he can speak to that more. And it just kind of snowballed from there. And the whole process was he announced at the BET Awards. And then it was just kind of like a waiting game until this point. And now we're in the 11th hour, really excited. But, yeah, your situation in L.A. obviously was different than mine virtually.

it was a process and it was something that I was new to because typically is we want you for this going about business now in this phase of my life is something that I will always remember and everything that you do is earned nobody this entitled mentality of like man I'm cam newton first pick husband trophy winner like MVP like man nobody care about that now it's like how you composition yourself and are you qualified to have this? Are you talented enough to have this? Can you far exceed just football and tap into the unknown of the culture? Hey, can you talk politics if you had the opportunity to? Hey, can you talk about home goods? Can you talk about fashion? Can you talk about lifestyle things? And when you start to really dive into, hey, this is something that I really want to do and take serious, you have to go out on the limb and take sacrifices right so yeah I had to prove went to L.A

Ashley obviously was one of the first persons you were my first yeah but that's how I'm crazy we're taking that clip we're going to say how you're doing it we're my first audition of the day we're taking that clip go ahead

and he said yep you know we had we had that as something where okay that was a good icebreaker it was probably 15 20 minutes and that's when my day kind of started. I think, you know, a question was posed to me and often asked, like, what's my superpower? And some would say probably football, but I think really for me, I've never met a stranger. Like, I've really genuinely talked, like talking

and really hearing people out. I went to school, studied sociology, so I took a lot of psychology classes as well and didn't really know how much of a nerd that I really was. And doing it my way. It wasn't that I, you know, no, bro, I'm from Atlanta, you know, twin. Like, no, it's like, no, I can really, you know, learn a thing or two, and that has helped me in places and positions. So when you see me on Funky Friday, fourth one now, you know,

with, you know, Ashley and 106 in sports, this will bring out a different element of what we're used to seeing Cam Newton. I know you got to go. I know you got a question. Yeah, one of the question. So first, congratulations on you deal with ESPN. First take. Yes, ma'am.

Yeah, so I know when everything happened with Shannon Sharper and your deal was announced, people made it seem like you were like the replacement because he was going to no longer be there. And I know he's a mentor to you. How has just navigating that dynamic or even that conversation been for you? Because even when you spoke about it, you made sure that you were like, you know, you were very thoughtful of how you spoke on both sides of it. Like you were fair to her and fair to him. Who was her?

The alleged victim. Oh, yeah, yeah. I speak about my personal relationships with individuals not to condone or, you know, support wrongness. That's not the case. If somebody feels that God bless me with an opportunity off of somebody else, well, whoop did it. Now, I know Shannon Sharp has helped me in my career immensely. you can't have me talk bad on that person because I look up to him in a way

and I judge my content off of some of the things that he does. I can call Shannon Sharp right now. I can reach out to Ocho right now. You can't make me hate Nightcap knowing any different than club, shesh, you can't make me hate it is what it is nor can make me hate the pivot. You can't make me hate any other platform

that I see anybody that has my complication. collection. Because I think what we get misguided with is this is not competition and content. It's just my next collaboration. It's not, I ain't competing with you, bro. First take, Stephen A. Smith calls me. He's like, hey, man, I'm going to give you two options, which one you want to do. You can either do this or you can do that. Now, and I said, no, no, no, no, Stephen A, like, tell me what you want. Now, do, do, do, it was that. It's like, hey, man, like, how can I be better? Give me my muff review. Hey, man, you got to get to your points faster. This is live TV. People are watching and expecting you to get to your point. Now, it's not no fourth and one type of tone where you can build up the story. It's like, no, bro, because I need innuendos. I need, I need cues.

And you guys have been working together where you know, like, okay, she's about to wrap it up or he's about to kind of bring it to a close. We're trying to study each other. Yeah. But we also need to have the ratings and the reviews to be entertaining. Right. So it's unfortunate what, you know, Shannon Sharp went through. But for me, I respect him with the media empire that he's creating and is half created or creating.

He's extremely brilliant. And when it comes to Stephen A. Smith, he's a person that is a machine, a machine. And we had our discussion about him yesterday. And I think he's been very intentional. about how people view him. It's extremely intentional. It's like, yo, he moved you. And I've been saying this on this press run.

It's like, I want to move people emotionally. Like when people look at this thing, like I want them and I tell. Why is he talking again? Y'all keep putting the mic in front of his face. Why like next? I moved you. You gave me that comment. That's right.

Tech mate. Oh, man, that's my boy, Cam. Where I get one of them hats at? Hey, what do you get the swag from? I moved you. checkmate so when you start looking at what you're doing holistically as a business and not just a hobby that's when you're going to start seeing the greatness in people so shout out to shana sharp um you know praying for you know that situation to to be resolved from what we know it it has been

That view, ladies, gentlemen. All right. Is that asking Nicole. Cam Newton. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. I'm the details.

I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything. She'd be having the latest. talking. The latest with Lauren La Rosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details, sometimes you have a little bit everything. Well, it's the latest.

On the breakfast club. Talk to me. So, uh, Kyran Lacey, we talked earlier this week, or another day actually about uh, Kyren Lacey's attorney, Matthew Ory, releasing video to clear Kyron Lacey's name in the car crash that killed a 78-year-old man named Herman Hall. Now, in response to this video that was posted, and Matthew Ory's video, basically showed Kyrin Lacey's car

100 yards away from the crash. The accident happens and then he says his car goes by. Correct. So the Louisiana State Police have now released

additional video in response to that video and in response to the video of the coercion that they were alleging that was happening. And we have

audios and, you know, all the things. But I just want to set the tone by saying I think the Louisiana police are trying to make it or trying to make it clear

that they didn't coerce anybody. But this back and forth to me, I just feel like it's in bad practice. And we did speak to Kyra and Lacey's mom and we'll get to that as well too. But let's start with... Well, first, you said they released their own video. So does their own video show anything different that we didn't see?

So the Louisiana Police's video that they recently released shows Kyra and Lacey's car driving by or trying to pass cars in a lane and they're alleging that because he went by these cars there was a woman who had to swerve and then she hit the man who

that died that was killed and they have audio from this woman as she's on the ground of her telling police what happened okay and then there's also

witnesses while the ladies laying on the ground who were there that are also accounting for what the police are saying happened which is Kyran's car

swerving around the other cars in the lane let's take a listen to that did you do the green charger flying that way

there was a green charger that caused all it the green charger collided with these cars he went around that truck and she had had no choice.

You said something about a green charger. Who told you something about a green charger? What did you see happen? He went to pass in cars around the curve, all right? When he come down, I got Mr. He had his brother that was that he was taken to the emergency or to hospital or something like that, chemo or something like that. But I got his number also to verify this, no one could.

He was the car that was in front of her. When that great charger came, so he jammed on a brake. She was coming down. They was going that way. She went to dodge, Mr. B. And that's when he came on. she he's referring to as the woman who hit the man who passed away

and she's laying on the ground at this time now I want you all to listen to the because we didn't have this audio the other day I want you to listen to the audio of a person who witnessed the crash that police were trying to talk to that Kyrin Lacey's attorney released let's take a listen to that

don't worry about filling any of this top information like your name adjo don't worry about any of that just right here if you could I'll just have you right exactly what you saw just make sure to include you know where you were um i don't even know what the name of the highway so that highway 20 you know that you just all right me my boy going to figure out right just uh may she add in there that uh you had to slam on your brace and the brace like you know you had to slam on the brakes to avoid that charger

and the brace locked up to avoid that charger that's i ain't skid my connect with the name gone man that lady in the back of me she and so it was happening that's that she called that record she was running in the back of me and she pulled on the other shot and that's not in it so but the uh The charger was coming right at you, correct? And that's why you had to slam when you break the head on with you. So, yeah, just make sure you include that. And that's very important because we're trying to locate this charger right now. So just include that in the statement.

And I'll read it over, and then I'll be out of here. You know what I'm thinking about when should you interview people immediately after a traumatic car crash? Because they might not even have their wits about it. They might not, they might be disoriented. They might not even know, know what they saw. Everything might be a blur to them. Is that the time to actually have that conversation, like immediately after? Because the lady that actually hit Hall, who's the man who passed away,

she's literally laying on the ground when they're talking to her. And in that moment, I don't know if she's even, you know, she's coherent. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Well, the only thing with that is people forget so fast, right? So if they don't ask immediately and you ask a couple days later, now you allowed them to calculate too many other things in their mind that they might not have really happened, right? It happens all the time. When something happens, you're able to do it.

But now, when you go back a week later, he'd be like, damn, did that really happen? So that's why they ask people immediately. Well, I, go ahead. You're right. People do forget too fast, but sometimes they may not even really remember what happened. Like, action has happened fast.

Yep, or no way happened. Yeah. Well, I reached out to Kyron Lacey's mom, and she said to me, I asked her, you know, was there any response to what police just released in response to you guys, you know, trying to clear your son's name?

And she said, hey, Lauren, thank you so much for reaching out At this time, the response video, Mr. Ory, who's their attorney, that video that he posted, that is our response. I will keep in touch if anything changes. So there's, you know, at this point for them and for Kyron's family, it's we said what we said and what you guys are seeing play out. This is how we feel. And, you know, they want his name to be cleared. The only problem I do have is even if he was driving, reckless and going around cars, whatever, right? And the reason I say whatever is the accident happened before he got there.

Right. And you can tell it's at least two, three seconds. He was behind him. But he wasn't driving reckless, though. I mean, from the video I saw it, there was nothing reckless about it. But they said he swirred into a lane. He went in the opposite lane to get around car.

It looked like he was trying to get around the accident. No, before that. Oh, I didn't see that. Yeah, before that. Some other video released. But regardless, the accident happened way before that anyway. That's what his attorney is posted video of the show.

And Kyron's mom's name is Candice Washington. So that's who we spoke with. But yeah. So now there's this back and forth playing out in the public. And at the end of the day, I think, you know, it's, the investigation has to answer this. But they're fighting back. They want to clear his name.

That's horrible, man. That's horrible. It's horrible. I don't even know who the point to finger at in this situation. This young man just really got done dirty by the system. You did. And it's just like a sorry doesn't suffice. Yeah.

And a police officer saying, I'm wrong, doesn't suffice. I don't even know what you do in a situation like this. This young man is not here no more. He killed himself. Yeah. Committed suicide. And we won't even never know what he was dealing with. That made him even say, you know what, man, I can't, I can't take this.

If everybody thinks I did something that I clearly did not do. Yep. God damn. My whole career is derailed now because y'all think I did something that I didn't do. And I'm telling y'all I didn't do it. There's video saying I didn't do it and y'all still don't believe me. That's right. My God.

Rest in peace to that young man. And condolences to his family. It's just sad. This is very tragic. All right. Well, that is the latest with Lauren. Now when we come back, we got the mix. Of course, little John.

was here earlier, so we're going to get some little John joints on 8005-85-105-105.1. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV. Jess Salarious. Shalameen the Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Salute to Little John for joining us this morning. Man, cultural icon. I mean, you talk about people who defined a whole era

of music. Like, I really don't think people understand who Little John is. Even when you talk about, like, top five hip-hop personalities ever. Yes. You know, when you think of hip-hop personality, you think, like, Tupac, you think Snoop Dog. You got to put Little John up there. Absolutely. Like, the guy got spoofed.

You know what I'm saying? He had such a big personality that Dave Chappelle could spoof him, and people knew who the hell Dave Chappelle was talking about. Little John is, as he's different, man. Absolutely. Different. Yeah, and if you want to see him perform live, you can check him out at our Atlanta Jingle Bowl, 26.1, that's December 18th. Get your tickets. Little John, we'll be performing.

Jermaine Dupree will be performing. Nellie, Molly, Big X to plug, just the name of few. So if you haven't got your tickets, get your tickets. And also salute to Cam Newton and Astley Nicole for joining us. They're the new BT host 106 in sports. They're going to drive them readings up. The way they argue back and forth? That's right. I like her, though.
