Wake that ass up in the morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Just Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is holding it down. Jess is on maternity leave. And we got a special guest in the building. The good brother Tyrese Gibbs. Tyrese is here. Good morning, sir. What's funny now, man, other than your gray beard, mother? I'm letting it grow. We grown, Tyrese. What's funny, papa? I bet than your gray beard, mother? I'm letting it grow. We grown, Tyrese.

What's funny, papa? I bet you won't let your facial hair grow in. You fucking right. Fucking right. How are you, sir? Not only am I not going to let them grow in, but I definitely tried to get into my implant game, and it landed, but it didn't land. It landed for the video.

It didn't land for the Spangled Banner, but we're talking about the video. The video was wildflower. yeah i shot the video i shot it wasn't even a video it's it's a short film called wildflower dedicated to my mother rest in peace produced by the legend david foster and uh my producer brandon bam h. And even though everyone knows the song Wildflower, it was David Foster's group. It's called Skylark from 50 years ago. And they released Wildflower. These are Canadians that are from Canada singing R&B. And then the way that we know about the song

is when New Birth did it, right? But David Foster has never gotten back in the studio to do any other remake of Wildflower until now. So I'm very honored that he did this on behalf of my mom and I'm very grateful. And it just actually came out today, man.

So I'm like, I'm always emotional. I'm an emotional wreck just knowing that my mama's song came out today. So what made you put the outfit on? Because that was my, I'm an emotional wreck. Just knowing that my mama song came out today. So what made you put the outfit on? Cause that was my, I'm gonna show you my favorite video. Oh God. Is this the Marvin Gaye outfit?

Was he Marvin Gaye? That's right. I was, well. I'm talking about the tie, nice to meet y'all. That's Lauren La Rosa. Yeah, we talked about that moment up here. This one right here. Of course you did, cause Charlemagne is a fucking troll.

Thank you. I'm like, this is me getting ready for bed at night. This was fantastic. Look at my caption. How I feel getting ready for bed every night.

That's me. I didn't even see that. I didn't see that. You know I'd have been in your motherfucking comments if I said that. Well, fellas, I have to go.

I just wanted to stay Wait, wait, I have to go. I just wanted to stay Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. You just want to disrespect Tyrese like that? No, I don't want to disrespect Tyrese. Me and Tyrese had a

grown man conversation earlier today. I was about to say, he about to throw one at me and walk out of here. We had a grown man conversation before on off air

and we spoke like men but I have to go but I don't want him to feel disrespectful that I'm leaving after we had a conversation. I think it is too. I told you I gotta go before.

Can y'all have one interview where y'all don't disrespect each other? This is not. What? This is not. Like why? I told him. Envy.

Yes, sir. I love you. I told you. What part of your car show at this point, how long, how many years you been doing it? Six years. Six years. What part of your car show requires you to be there

physically unloading cars yourself? Well, this is the thing. No, let me tell you. Cause I do caring cars yourself. Well, this is the thing. No, I'm going to tell you. Because I do car shows, too. So I've never unloaded a fucking vehicle. They are actually pulling up this weekend. But the thing is, is when Cardi B and Offset give me their car, I don't let anybody touch their car but me. Because if something happens, and that happened before with Pusha T.

Pusha T gave me his Ferrari. Okay. I let somebody pull it off the thing, and he crashed. You see here? So now for my situation, when anybody comes, and Loden is actually at 930, I'm supposed to be there, I personally take their cars off. So next time I come to Atlanta and I take your car,

you know that Envy will personally take care of you. Okay. Well, if I would be okay and not feel disrespected about Envy leaving, because this interview is pretty important. Everybody want to see us, but they definitely tuned in right now for my beige fella, right? I just want you to say these words, Envy, before you leave. Oh, boy.

Beautiful Pain is the most important R&B album in 2024. I haven't heard it yet. You motherfucker. You got a point. You didn't hear it, Tyree. That's not my stuff. He heard it. What you supposed to say? I heard it heard it yet. You motherfucker. You got a point. You didn't hear it, Tyree. That's not my stuff. He ain't heard it. What you supposed to say?

He ain't heard it. Fuck you. I'm just saying. How you want me to say something he ain't heard, man? That's cool. I want to believe I sent him at least a couple pieces, and you did. You got them, too. I heard some music.

You sure? I definitely heard some music. I'd just be wondering why they're taking so long. You've been sitting on this album for a while. It's called being independent Mmm, it's called money up money down being grown and dealing with seven lawsuits Getting in the way of all kind of shit that I wanted to do But we here now and now envy is leaving. We just seen Lee Daniel in the hall

Y'all talk about Teddy Pendergrass is that gonna happen? leaves bumper My envy is leaving. We just seen Lee Daniel in the hall. Y'all were talking about Teddy Pendergrass. Is that going to happen? You pulled up on Lee's bumper? Here you go. Say pause. That's a motherfucker. He couldn't wait. That's crazy. He couldn't wait.

I mean. And he be cracking himself up. I mean. Because he know. Mike. He hurling him. He was ready for that one. He was waiting for that one.

I mean, he had that motherfucker in the eye cloud. No, I'm going to tell you something. No, no. No, but what is that? Is that happening? I was talking to him., I'm going to tell you something. No, no. No, but wait. Is that happening? Me and Tyrese was talking last night, and he said, he said, man, I might come on the tail of Lee. Wait, hold on.

Wait, hold on. Wait, hold on. Yo. Hold on. I got to drink some water. That was spicy. That right there, that was. Hold on, hold on. I must say that the first part is bullshit.

The second part is true. Wait. I said, this is what I said, and I announced Paul's. The come or the tail. I ain't say it with the first part is bullshit. The second part is true. I said, this is what I said. I announced pause. I ain't say what to come part. This is this nigga putting a 10 on. This is what I did say. I said, hey man, I might have to pull up on the tail end

of the Lee Daniels interview because y'all gonna be interviewing him right before I... I said pause. I said, hold on. Go ahead. See, he gonna give a nigga a good 10. Let's move on. I thought you didn't have no time I do so you want to hear details of the tail end. What the fuck is going on, Andy? I heard y'all talking about the Teddy Pendergrass movie. Nobody else was there. It was me, you, and Lee Daniels.

Okay, that's true. And you were talking about, you were saying, make sure that you really want to do that movie. So to break that down, is that going to happen? So what I explained to him was Lee Daniels is born and raised in Philly. All right? He was here with Arjadei, my fellow Capricorn. I explained to him was Lee Daniels is born and raised in Philly all right he was here with our today my fellow Capricorn and Lee has a specific commitment to telling stories from the legends and icons from the grounds of

Philadelphia all right I'm not gonna be disparaging because we ain't finna get no more calls about oh he said this about true be told uh there was a lawsuit filed and i did not win the lawsuit um or not not win i did not have the lawsuit to work in my favor because i've been on this journey to do teddy pendergrass for literally 14 years long long before Teddy married his current widow, right? And again, I have still respect for her. But when you're doing a film with someone who does not have any experience, respectfully, in Hollywood, they don't know the process of writing and rewriting and trying to figure out, like, how do you tell the best story?

You cannot do a Teddy Pendergrass movie that has him quadriplegic for the whole movie because nobody's going to watch that movie the movie was never cradled to the grave meaning from the moment he was born to the moment he passed and his wife who is incredible i've seen her passion and love for this man uh which is why i don't want to be disrespectful but she was in his life you know the last four years of his life and the movie that myself and lee daniels wanted to tell did not include that piece of the life that they had together it was from this period to that period and that's the movie and the story that we wanted to tell and i don't't think anybody would, like, you know,

as much as I know and want to do as an actor, when Lee Daniels in the driver's seat, as a genius that he is, as a filmmaker he is, even I knew how to shut the fuck up and get out the way. Absolutely. Like, I was not involved

in the day-to-day of the script and the process because you don't want to piss Lee off for making him feel like you're micromanaging the process. Nigga, am I here to do what I'm here to do? You show up and you ready to do Teddy. Okay? So, at the

end of the day, I didn't think it was fair and it all fell apart. Warner Brothers, Lee Daniels, Tyrese, this man told me you're the only person in the world that could ever play me. Teddy told you that personally? 100%.

There's nobody else on this earth that I would ever trust. And he said, you know the reason why could ever play me. So what? Teddy told you that personally? 100%. Wow. There's nobody else on this earth that I would ever trust. And he said, you know the reason why you're going to play me? It's because you never wanted to be me. I can't stand motherfuckers out here trying to copy me. You sing your ass off and you've been doing you this whole time. And I want you and I know you're the only one that can tell the story. So as you can imagine, if something or anybody's getting in the way of that and we got a Lee Daniels from Philly born and raised and all of that so so that's that's what you just heard I

basically just said to Lee uh in Jesus name we're still gonna make this movie they said don't let it go don't let it go stop the fight and I go. Don't stop the fight. And I'm going to tell you right now that there is no other version of the Teddy Pendergrass package that's better than this package. So I may have sued and lost the lawsuit. But do you think Teddy would have wanted you to sue his widow, though?

I think the Teddy Pendergrass that I know and got to know, Teddy Pendergrass that I know and got to know, Teddy Pendergrass is not interested in anything or anybody that would get in the way of progress. And would he say sue? No. Nobody would ever say, hey, man, if she get in the way, sue her. That's not what that man said to me. What I will say is I've been around,

I've heard him say things about people that you would never ever think he feels this or feels that about and I'd never repeat it because that's who my heart is. But I will say Teddy don't fuck with who Teddy don't fuck with and I'm aware of who he does and who he don't. They can paint whatever picture they want

but Teddy is not interested in anything or anybody getting in the way of his story being told. Are you saying that Teddy didn't fuck with his widow? I'm not saying that at all. Those are not my words. That's Charlemagne trying to do that Charlemagne thing. I just know people would take it like that. And envy is slipping out of here.

All right, we're going to hug. I love you. There you go. That's what I like to see. That's what I like to see. That's what I like to see. That's what I like to see. It's fucked up.

Make sure you ain't got no Just For Men on your shoulder, Tyree. I know you wearing white. Fucked up. Because you know what? Make sure you ain't got no Just For Men on your shoulder. What's fucked up? No, I'm going to tell you what's fucked up. What's fucked up?

I'm going to tell you what's fucked up. If that was Akon's car, you wouldn't be leaving here. These life-saving niggas stick together. He's leaving on behalf of Cardi B's car. Akon hairline look like Envy B. But listen, she also said you was a poor businessman poor businessman yeah

that's fine that's fine everybody's entitled to their opinion I want to believe that securing a deal with Warner Brothers securing Lee Daniels

developing an actual relationship with her late great husband that says everything about who I am as a businessman because I produce results.

We had the biggest press release ever. At the end of the day, she's going to see this interview and I just want her to know that in my mind, I made a commitment to your husband. I made a commitment to his story, his journey and Lee Daniels is still ready

to go and Warner Brothers is still ready to go. I'm just going to hope and pray that somebody can make the phone call to say that there is no better Teddy Pendergrass package than Tyrese, Lee Daniels, and Warner Brothers. And that's it. So if somebody does make that phone call, and it happens, right, in a perfect world, like how do y'all move forward? We already got the script done, babe.

Not the script done but not the script but i mean like just as people and like now you have all this in the media and the lawsuit or whatever it's like did you just see what happened with me and envy so y'all gonna sit down and have a conversation you've seen what just happened with me and envy yeah so you're open to it we're supposed to be fucking bare knuckle right here cracking i already told him y'all wasn't doing that yeah but we we said we wasn't doing that yeah and me and charlamagne said we're not doing that me and envy said we wasn't doing yeah and me and charlamagne said we're not doing that me and envy said we're not doing that so if everybody 200 and ready for war where's the war

right we grown-ass men and guess what we all felt and feel and went about all of this shit the way we did there's actions there's reactions it went to whatever level but i'm a grown-ass man and at the end of the day he is too too. And that man is too. So I really believe in Jesus name. First of all, I'll say this, not despite anybody. We can't make Teddy Pendergrass about

any of us. His story is history and it belongs to the world. And there's nobody else in the world I could do that but me y'all seen the beard why did it go into the star spangled banner situation I tell you because the guy first of all shout out to my barber I literally flew a man from Texas we found him a year ago online and his

process takes about five hours and I did not want to do anything from Hollywood because first of all, there's a lot of white people that are makeup artists and they don't even know nothing about this black texture. So that's why you got motherfuckers out here looking real crazy when they put on fake beards in movies

or whatever. First of all, I'm an actor and if anybody can get away with putting on prosthetics and fake this and fake that, it would be me. Now, when you go and do all that fake shit in real life, we got to ask some real goddamn questions. But I have never had facial hairs like that in my life. I got a hold of what I believe is the best person that could do that shit and make it look real and believable.

And I literally went full-on for my wildflower not a video a short film and that we it was casted by Robbie Reed who did levels of like Malcolm X like this is a real movie it would be disrespect for the call of the music video and so I I went all out. Okay. And my whole move, my whole album, Beautiful Pain, is like rumor has it the year 2024 is coming. I've been in the year 1968

for the last almost four years. You said 2024 is coming. Rumor has it that we're still going to be alive in 2024. I have been in the year 1968 working on this beautiful pain album because when I was working on my album there was no such thing as Luther Vandross featuring Curtis Blow there was no such thing as Marvin Gaye featuring Run DMC it was never I wanna tell you

baby the chances I've been going through I've been working on 10 Chances I've been going through It was no such thing Okay Grown ass man With just R&B records That did not feature hip hop

So that's what I did I got 20 songs They live And there was nothing about What I did in my wildflower video that had anything to do with me looking like jody baby boy roman pierce none of them niggas i had to become the person that i envisioned myself becoming the motherfucking uh bell-bottom shoe her pants and them platform shoes that was this thick. Worst shit I've ever experienced in my life.

I got, I got a level of Adidas suit with the, the lovers. The what? Worst than the Adidas suit. Yes. Yes. Yes.

That was the day. Yeah. That was uncomfortable where it was uncomfortable. Listen, man, I ain't never wore no shit like that in my life. Okay. Full beard,

full head of hair. I wore a bonnet to full beard full head of hair i wore a bonnet to go to sleep my girl gave me a bonnet okay i woke up with a fucking headache damn because of the bonnet whatever that ball that you you know because i don't wear wave caps none of that shit nigga that bought that bonnet the string yeah tight i woke up i was like yo man i don't have i have no motherfucking idea how y'all niggas. Ain't no way in hell anybody should be committing to hair and waking up with. I was on fire. Yeah, so anyway.

Don't ever do braids. Anyway. I like the commitment. And it was a good promo. Well, it was promo in my mind because I'm pretty methodical with my shit when I can be. It don't always land, but it lands. Why did they think it was Marvin Gaye?

I didn't get Marvin Gaye. It was like extra from Good Times. It was because he was singing, it was the way that he sung the song. Well, that's what we thought. Like one of Rollo's friends or something from San Francisco. So you feel like it didn't land?

You keep saying that. What's that? You keep saying that it didn't land. What didn't land? What are you referring to? Are you talking about when you were singing the star spangled banner when i was singing the national anthem and landed but i was saying that not everything that i i'm very method i'm a capricorn so we think and we strategize and we calculate and i was saying that not everything that we calculate will always land, but everything about what I did landed. Right. So I said to these white people at the Rams, I said to the people at even the movie studio, I said, let me tell you something. singing like Tyrese wearing regular Tyrese clothing, that's gonna get as much traction and attention as this. And the outfit that I wore is the outfit that I wore in the entire music video or short film from Wildflower.

You ain't see it? No, I didn't see Wildflower, but I know we- He tried to come at me about the shit. He's like, are you coming up here in that beard for the interview, right? You should've. I would love to see it in person. I sent this nigga 20 pictures. I was really confused

until you just said all that stuff. Of course, everybody was. Yeah, I was real confused. Everybody was. They thinking that I'm having another mental health breakdown on live television.

Okay? This is not a what more do you want from me part two. It ain't ever coming. And you didn't sound bad. I was like, well, he don't sound bad

singing now. Let's not do that. Like, you know? Let me make another connection for the young niggas uh who who didn't live before twitter was born uh the great western forum had a legend by the name of marvin gaye who sung one of the most legendary national anthems ever at a Laker game. Okay? And that actual physical property. Okay, let me give it to y'all because y'all still kind of slow.

So let me get y'all to catch up to me. Okay, here we go. The Great Western Forum is in Englewood. It's right here. Right. Oh, we geographical right now.

Okay, I got it. Because these kids don't know what the fuck is going on. I'm kidding. The Great Western Forum is right here. The same exact parking lot

is where the SoFi Arena is located. I showed up in a red beanie and everything about my approach to the anthem and the year that I've been living in,

Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, Stevie Wonder, Motown, this red beanie was holding hands with this red beanie at the Great Western Forum as I sung the national anthem on top of live congos in an arena that just got built a couple years ago called the SoFi in the same exact property holding hands. So

Marvin did it. I did a music video. This man said, it's going to take four hours to take all that nappy shit off your face. I said, I don't have time. We left the set of Wildflower and went straight to the anthem because these white people wanted me there by 1030 to rehearse. Like, I don't rehearse. I need sleep. But if y'all want me to rehearse, I got to show up in full costume because I'm just leaving the set so when Wildflower drops I think for all the people

that's laughing joking or just asking questions they gonna understand it wasn't giving Marvin though it was giving like Lamont Sanford got a date

you know what I'm saying no but people picked up the Marvin because of the I think it was like the just the way you sung it people picked it up I'm not even gonna look at this nigga right now

no no go ahead you did it but we I didn't know what yo listen you sung it people pick that up I'm not even gonna look at this nigga right now no no go ahead you did it but we thought I didn't know what yo listen you did it you did it

you did that this nigga here he gone I'm trying to move on you keep going back hey man I was raised Tyrese really is a funny nigga

though y'all don't know that's why I want Tyrese to do a comedy man Tyrese now that I'm sitting here I'm like you kinda you knew what you was doing. It had a deeper purpose.

But also, low-key, you trolled us a little bit. You always know what he's doing. Not trolled in a bad way, but you knew it was going to get the people going. And you didn't have a choice, so you just made the dude what you had to make the dude at the time. It's like he knew. It's a different feeling now. Because before, I'm like, this is not. What the fuck is going on?

Tyrese, this is not the. Well, listen, y'all. All jokes aside, Wildflower is available worldwide. Well listen y'all. All jokes aside. Wildflower. Is available worldwide. It just went live on all the streaming platforms. And you already know this song. You love this song. We grew up on this song.

I would have never heard this song. A day in my life. Let me tell y'all something. Imagine me. Little boy. Long before I ever knew I could sing. My mom was an alcoholic, 27 years. May God rest her soul. She died two years ago, 2022 of all days.

She gave birth to an R&B singer, and she dies on Valentine's Day. Two girls, two boys. I'm the last one. I'm the baby boy, officially. So imagine, long before I ever knew I could hold a note, as my mama is drinking, talking about, she ain't just like sipping. My mama was full on.

Right. Right? The soundtrack that helped her to drink even more was R&B soul music. I don't really know no other version of R&B. Like, I don't know nothing about Lil Tay Tay, Lil Ray, Lil Say Say. Listen, there will never be David Foster

and Lil Tay Tay in the same sentence. Right. You understand me? So y'all might be winning the popularity contest because, you know, record labels these days, y'all niggas is corny. Okay, corny. Hey, man, you know record labels these days y'all is corny okay corny hey man you know what's the data what's the streaming numbers what's the youtube view

What's your name, sis, again? Lauren. And how old are you if you don't mind me asking? 32. You're 32. Let me tell you something. I'm 45 years old.

My voice is deep. This nigga got gray facial hair. He has a wife at home. Family. That's right. If I ever look out in the audience and see a 16-year-old with purple hair and black fingernails uploading a TikTok video on my motherfucking audience, I would literally get him removed. Why?

Damn, Tyree. All that? Why? What if he's appreciating old school vibes? I'm grown. But, let's see. I'm trying to make y'all understand that us as grown men and grown women,

we are losing sight of the reality of what this is because we out here thirsty and desperate trying to appeal to kids. I'm not against that. I agree with that. So I don't mean that literally. That's stupid. I speak in antics. I get what you're saying.

I'm starting to learn you a bit. Okay. So I'm just letting you know there is nothing about that that any record label will ever be able to convince me that if you don't check off these boxes and do this and do that, work for 15 goddamn record labels and don't even understand how you still own. Go ahead and sign little Tay-Tay, little JJ, little say-say. I'm a grown ass man. I sell out arenas. I know what the other side of $200,000 a night look like. And I'm not going nowhere.

So do your data, do your research, and go ahead and sign the niggas that's winning the YouTube war. I'm a grown-ass man. I don't want none of you young niggas in my audience anyway. As a matter of fact, my album is so grown, I'm about to put out an album that's going to help make your baby sister. Damn. Your baby brother's coming to help make your baby sister. Damn. Your baby brother's coming, nigga, because of me.

I'm post-pandemic in a beige jacket. Grown. Okay? I'm selling out, and your mama going to be in the audience when she puts your ass to sleep. Ain't going to leave you at home with a nanny. Now, listen, I don't disagree with nothing you're saying, but what if,

because you are an international movie star as well. I got it. We ain't talking about that guy. So what about these youngins who might see Fast and Furious? They need to go see the Fast and Furious. But then they say, oh, he does music too. So then they go and they listen to the music.

And they're like, I like this. They are welcome. What I'm saying to you is, you're not gonna cater to the TikTok algorithm. I'm 45 years old. We get you. I go to clubs that say 21 and over. What the fuck?

So it's Voltron. It's Voltron Records that has been homeless until now because these niggas is pulling out the YouTube views and they said Lil Tay-Tay mattered in a fucking legend named Tyrese. Goofy-ass niggas is pulling out the YouTube views and they said little Tay Tay mattered in a fucking legend named Tyrese goofy-ass niggas I'm right here wildflower will be number one for 40 weeks and little Tay Tay and David Foster will never be in the same sentence how does that make you feel we are exhausted with auto-tune we are exhausted with motherfuckers out here

who are not singing who's not coming from the soul if y'all want us to think and believe that charlemagne the god is not going home to his beautiful wife and his family if y'all want us to believe that all these women out here selling out arenas talking about fuck you i don't need you i'm independent i could do bad by myself if you think they're not going home to a husband you are the most confused generation period y'all seen what happened with ciara when she released that song and And they like, I'm so confused. And there's no disrespect to her. We all understand that the record labels is like, if you as a female artist want to be SZA, Summer Walker,

Aiko, or this or that, and all these different women out here who keep going and bashing men in their songs, Jasmine Sullivan, Mary J. Blige, if you want to sell out arenas, they not buying love right now. They don't want to hear about how much you love your husband that you're actually going home to. These women ain't going home by they self.

And talk about my ex, but I'm not going to do that. Don't do that. Don't even do it. It's not 1992. Just listen to what I'm saying. I love you. I would love to take up the rest of this interview time from going at my ex so that y'all can understand what motivated Beautiful Pain, but I'm not. I love you. I would love to take up the rest of this interview time from going at

my ex so that y'all can understand what motivated beautiful pain, but I'm not going to do that. I got plenty of interviews out there with the whole world here and the details of my heart about how I am still trying to figure out who, what, and how this all happened. But I'm also going to say to y'all that this album, including my new relationship, has helped me to discover the beauty in my pain. Wow. Okay.

That's why the album is called Beautiful Pain. 20 songs total. It's all live. Lenny Kravitz. Hey there, my little creeps. It's your favorite ghost host, Teresa. And guess what? Haunting is back, dropping just in time for spooky season. Now I know you've probably been wandering the mortal plane, wondering when I'd be back to fill your ears with deliciously unsettling stories.

Well, wonder no more, because we've got a ghoulishly good lineup ready for you. Let's just say things get a bit extra. We're talking spirits, demons, and the kind of supernatural chaos that'll make your spooky season complete. You know how much I love this time of year. It's the one time I'm actually on trend. So grab your pumpkin spice, dust off that Ouija board. Just don't call me unless it's urgent. And tune in for new episodes every week.

Remember, the veils are thin, the stories are spooky, and your favorite ghost host is back and badder than ever. Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts....G, L. the Barge, Kim Burrell, October London. We got a song on this album called Bedroom Bully. Let me tell you something. I'm pregnant right now. Lee Daniels in your knee.

I knew it. I tell you, boy. Charlemagne, first lady at the house, ask yourself some real questions about the things your husband is into. I mean, we can't even let five minutes go by without some type of gay juice flying out of his goddamn mouth.

Pause. That was a mouthful. Whoa. Gay juice. Gay juice is the topic of whatever the fuck he keep hurling out. It ain't it Hey, you either straight or you're gay ain't nobody don't be in my comments mother But you could be whatever version again you want if you either straight again, that's it. I'm grown

Yes, beautiful pain we know what the album is about yeah When you see things and I don't want you to talk about your ex i'm just this is a music question yes when your ex does go out there and and continue to say things does it make you go to the studio and rewrite write more what does it do because i know that's i know that's how you've been channeling all that none of the things that she has been saying if i'm being honest it's irritating okay it's annoying i don't know who this person is. I wish I did. None of her friends know who she is.

I don't know who she is. And I think we've already addressed that and unpacked that. What I will say is I didn't really need any other motivator. Because if you were to put on some 3D glasses, I'm sitting here in a beige jacket and I'm still on fire about the confusion in and around my entire thing crashing and burning. Now, pride and ego is supposed to say you look good, you got money, you drive this, you live in that, your square footage is that. You got a new love. You got a new love. So, you know, here's the other narrative that women, I love y'all,

but it's amazing to me. Does that mean Jasmine Sullivan still want to be with her ex because she released a song, talk about busting windows out of a car? Does Mary J. Blige want to get back with Ken Do because she has done a bunch of interviews and released a bunch of songs venting and talking and expressing her thoughts,

feelings, and sentiments about a marriage that ultimately didn't work. Because you feel like people think you want to go back to the ex. It is fucked up for y'all to keep telling me that I want,

I lust, I desire, I want, I have not talked to this woman. I have not secretly done a lunch, a dinner. If she were to post screenshots right now of her phone since she left me, there is not one fucking text message that says, there was some begging and pleading and trying to understand when we first broke up.

But the moment that that divorce paperwork came in, with $20,000 a month for an eight-month-old attached, we first broke up but the moment that that divorce paperwork came in with twenty thousand dollars a month for an eight month old attached i said okay i got what's going on now i don't like it but i can't unsee what i saw and i can't unfeel what i feel so at the end of the day i'm now in a studio working on an album that should belong to everybody else but me. You think I want to sing these goddamn songs? Okay? You think Marvin Gaye wanted to go to court after being married to Barry Gordy's wife? I mean, Barry Gordy's sister

that was 17 years older than him, named Ann Gordy, broke, depressed, addicted to cocaine, going through everything imaginable in his life and end up going to court and didn't have anything that he can give Barry Gordy's sister. And he ended up having a judgment to say, you're going to go to the studio. You're going to record a full album, all of the money from yourselves, your publishing, everything that has to do with this album, you got to give it to this woman that you were married to because you ain't got a pot to piss in and a hole in the wall.

And you know what he named the album? Here, my dear. You think Marvin Gaye wanted to record that goddamn album? You think Marvin Gaye wanted his life to end up the way it ended up before he released? And it's classics on there, like, just to keep you satisfied. You know what that is, Charlamagne. You probably got three kids off of that.

That song would have never been created if you didn't go through that tumultuous time. See, some of y'all out here, y'all niggas break up with somebody in three weeks. And y'all selling out arenas. And y'all are confusing popularity with what matters. You microwave ass motherfucker ain't going to be here five years from now. So it sounds like you, I mean, you're in a good space about a lot of stuff, right? So where are you? Because people, you brought up mental health earlier and people always, you said people question your mental health.

Like where are you right now with everything mental health wise? have never been in a better place in my life um good to hear that i take uh anxiety medicine that's one milligram it's called ativan changed my life i've never taken any other version of anxiety medicine most of y'all niggas out here taking anxiety medicine don't really actually have anxiety. You just want to be high because your favorite rapper mentioned it every three bars. I've learned to get massages. I love that I live in a cul-de-sac where there's no cars, no people, and no movement because my version of hitting the reset button is when i

get away from everything and everybody that may make some people sad and depressed but when i get to be alone is when i am at my best um we don't really have to talk about the crying video uh because as i was asking what more do you want from me i realized i was really talking to god because i felt like if my life went from a 30 second commercial to almost 30 years of some some type of a career i'm trying to figure out like what else do you have in mind for me what what else are we going what what what what else happens from here i'm shocked you ain't in the album yet. Seriously. No, because those were words that came out of my mouth that I never knew. That video was out there for four months before the psych meds was out of my system.

So it's still painful to think about the shame and embarrassment that came with something that I didn't even know happened. But at the end of the day, I'm not here to make a mockery of mental health I'm just here to address what happens when somebody says you're stressed out, you're going through something and they give you something to help you with your mental health and it ended up having fucked up side effects for the whole world to see

so with that being said, understand and I gotta close this out by talking about the movie because I got to close this out by talking about the movie because I have to, but I want to say this in closing. I want to say this in closing about Beautiful Pain. We could find ourselves as R&B singers continuing to make reference to things and events and moments that happened 50 years ago while disowning our gifts disowning our songs disowning our talents because we keep throwing

back to donnie to marvin to stevie to all of the greats They are great and they're still great, whether they're still with us or not. But it's time for us as R&B singers to step into our greatness and have the audacity to say, I believe I just made the most important album of my life. And when I take my last breath 50, 60 years from now, God willing, I don't pass no time soon. They will look at this interview.

They will look at all my documentaries. They will look at me and the process of me making my arm, which I've documented every step of the way and say, how can you not put that that there? David Foster produced. Executive produced. Beautiful Pain. Brandon Bam Hodge produced. Beautiful Pain. This is the only album that belongs on vinyl.

You go to Tyrese.tv to pre-order it. Kids go to sleep. It's grown. I know. Hear me. To my ex. ex you me up he did but God God had this to happen for a reason because what I gave birth to and this album and this music never existed before that what I just gave birth to never existed before Zelly I got a song called rescue because she was my rescue God sent this woman in my life in the midst of all of my mess.

It's not in everybody's cause to be alone while you're going through a broken heart. That's how people kill themselves. It's not about, let me wait until I heal and I take my healing journey about 100%. Get off the internet. When you grown and you understand the beauty of companionship friends family loved ones and

somebody that you share in time with can put a smile on your face when you can't put a smile on your own face zelly i love you and i'm sorry i had to do so many interviews talking about my ex but i love you it's been four years and you have changed my life. You are my rescue. God sent you in my life to be something that never existed before you got there. You never asked to be there. I was supposed to be married and do this with her. She made her choice.

Beautiful pain. It drops on the same day as 1992. You're moving. Friday, August 30th. Rest in peace to Ray Liotta. I appreciate Scott Eastwood. I appreciate the director named Ariel Roman. Okay, this man is Israeli from Israel directing a film about one of the most traumatic,

this 1992, April 29th, the Rodney King verdict. Not comparing tragedies. This was our September 11th. September 11th. Hear me out. We're not talking about comparing the tragedies. It was a terrorist attack. I would liken Rodney King more sort of like a George Floyd.

Police officers are terrorists. When you got 17 white men pulling out their batons and beating the shit out. They killed this man, brought him back to life. They killed this man. We've seen terrorism. Mystic terrorism. Okay, okay. We got it.

We're not talking about airplanes. And God bless all of the loss. I'm not comparing tragedies. This was our September 11th on the West Coast. Prior to that, it was the 1965 riots. Okay? That the President of the United States sent Dr. Martin Luther King

to Watts. Before I was born in Watts and raised and became successful, my city Watts was only known for the 1965 Watts riots. The movie 1992 is not about a documentary of rioting and looting. If y'all want to watch a movie about rioting and looting, go watch this shit online.

There's a documentary out there about it. There's plenty of them. This is about a heist. Ray Liotta, Scott Eastwood, they decided while the whole world is distracted, everything is burning. everybody's looting riding and burning la the fuck down let's go break in this warehouse and steal 50 platinum bars out of this motherfucking safe and do a heist and you have never in your life seen this many white

people in a south central la movie i'll give you the list. Colors, Menace to Society, Boys in the Hood, Baby Boy, Poetic Justice, Set It Off, Straight Out of Compton, and the new show, Snowfall. Whenever you see white people, whenever you see white people in these South Central LA movies,

they're normally police officers fucking up black and brown people. This movie is the this is 1992 is my south central fast and the furious interesting imagine that so and ray passed in 2022 right ray passed away and this is the last piece of art he left the world with and it is the most uncomfortable performance you'll ever see from Ray Liotta. I mean, I'm talking about on the set, Ray, what's going on?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. Ray wasn't fucking with nobody. Ray was in it. Rich, you deal with a lot of grief. Like I think about, you know, brother Paul Walker, and I think about Ray,. Ray John Singleton your mother divorce divorce both of my sisters died your sisters people don't look at divorce as grief but you did you lose things you know you probably lost a

lot of friends when you went to your mental health breakdown are you really really really have you really taken the time to deal with all of that grief or do you just try to stay busy to avoid it? I'm doing the best I can with every 24 hours I get. That's it. Nah, I don't need no tissue. Black men cry. That's right.

Need no fucking tissue. Every 24 hours I get, I'm doing the best I can. Beautiful pain. 1992. There is no square footage I could ever live in. There is no rims, no jury, and no car. There is no square footage I could ever live in. There is no rims, no jury, and no car. There is no net worth.

There is no press release. There is no co-star. There is no collaboration in the world. I could ever replace my mama. I could ever fill the void of what it's like to wake up and get married and want to be in something for the rest of your life and it goes away I don't need no tissue oh man how much power it is and letting it go yeah cuz you've been holding it the whole interview watching you you asked me the question you should have never

asked the question i love if you didn't want to see i love you i love you i love you how hard it's been to get through i love you i love you black okay do you not cry absolutely you might not bring it to the radio absolutely but this is what being grown is brother i'm not doing this I need one my makeup going mess up hear me hear me black men cry when divorces happen women aren't the only one that are

devastated when a miscarriage happens women are not the only one that you should be checking on. When you can't put food on the table because your career goes up and then it goes down, stop calling, skipping over the man, and just checking on the woman. This is real shit out here I'm gonna wipe my own tears

that's not my makeup Tyrese I love you sis when you do things from the heart it affects hearts that's what beautiful pain is y'all might outsell me the first week I made a fucking classic. Some of the most legendary movies in the world didn't do well in the box office.

Baby Boy bombed. Do your research. Is it a classic? Absolutely. Is Baby Boy a classic? Hell yeah. People didn't even know who the fuck I was as an actor when that movie came out. Baby Boy the only reason BET still got a network going.

Praise God. If the movie bombed in the box office, why is it the only movie that they still playing on BET every day? Don't confuse data and numbers and popularity with the reality of what affects hearts. I'm a grown ass man. And I'm going to tell you something about 1992. As well as the mass singer when I did that show. Praise God for Nick Cantor. Shout out to him.

I was really a mass singer. I needed that mass so fucking bad wow i needed that money from that show so bad i didn't have it in me to go stand on that fucking stage and sing and praise god i had a mask on because while i was on stage singing if they had seen my face under that mask. Right. Listen. If it all ends for me tomorrow. I never sold you on fake. None of this jewelry on my arm is real.

Don't love me because of no fucking diamonds. Take all this shit. This bracelet right here look real as a motherfucker. This shit was $23 on Amazon. You say it look real? Nothing. Hear me out. I didn't think it looked real. It don't look fake, right? If you out here getting fake vagina

over your fake jewelry, reality is reality. This shit is corny. It all fake it's all superficial it doesn't mean anything can i ask you a question my brother and closing everybody go see 1992 i got one beautiful pain they both drop friday august 30th it's a labor Day weekend. Shout out to Snoop Dogg, who's an executive producer on board. I want y'all to understand something. R&B

just changed. The live instruments gotta come out. Go pull them out your garage. It's time to dust them out. All y'all out here making these beats on these goddamn iPhones and y'all end up number one, y'all gonna have to have a seat. That's why you did everything live?

You trying to bring it back to that? I didn't do it live on purpose. It just ended up happening. Oh, okay. Because I got into the biggest argument ever with my producer named Brandon. He was like, bro, I'm not doing that no more. We're not pulling out Logic. We're not pulling out beat machines.

We're doing this shit live. And I said, I don't even know what the fuck that is. But I tell you what, the number one song, biggest song of my life produced by Warren Campbell was number one on Billboard for 16 weeks. And that was live. It's called Shame. Wildflower.

Shame was not a remake. Wildflower is a remake that everybody already loved. And the person who co-wrote, produced it, had something to do with it 50 years ago is involved with the current version of the song. I just want y'all to know that everything just changed. If you ain't never met a real person in your life, I'm sitting right here.

Like me, dislike me. Agree with me, disagree with me. Whoever your favorite is, I hope they stay your favorite I've never tried to win the popularity contest and if I did I got every celebrity director actor rapper porn star you name it they're all in my phone I know all these motherfuckers I could be as hot as I want to be you don't think I got TMZ on the phone you don't think I know Harvey Levin you don't think I can make a phone call and say this is what restaurant I'm eating

Y' been my therapist you've been my friend you've encouraged me and i have to close

this out by giving the one and only name that matters if you don't know jesus the lord jesus christ is my Lord and Savior every therapist has ever helped me every friend, every brother girlfriend, laughed at jokes I would not be here if it wasn't for the power and the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ

who has been by my side when I thought it was over when I thought it was a wrap when I thought what you thought what more do you congratulate when I thought it was over God said no I'm God amen I got my hands on you son all you got to do is wake up and decide to not do nothing stupid. Divorce is divorce. People out here get sad and messed up and broken, and they decide they don't want to live no more. I praise God every single day that that's never been a choice.

It is not because narcissism, ego, ego oh he would never hurt himself because some of the biggest egos in the world with money and all the success in the world have made that choice and if you're struggling with that i just want you to invite the lord jesus christ into your most vulnerable spaces and places and and watch and see what only god can do. I understand you a lot more. Beautiful Pain and 1992 are both dropping. August 30th. Labor Day weekend, Friday, August 30th.

all I can say is if you grown and sexy and you appreciate real song, real vulnerabilities, real music, and I'm going to tell you something else, Charlamagne, and I'm going to shut up.

I praise God for this. I've actually played this album for more married couples. They've danced, they've cried, they've wiped each other's tears. They've literally said, including Snoop Dogg

with his wife that he's been with since high school. He said, babe, I'm sorry. And she's like, what, babe? Whatever. This album has brought married couples closer. They're having sex, the bedroom, they're taking bubble baths, they apologize, and they and they like what are we

arguing about like what this is not i went through a divorce this ain't no bitter shit right you are not about to pick up my i'm not about to be the lord jesus christ jesus and i'm about to release an album to contribute to the divorce rate. If y'all think y'all about to go pick up an album where I'm going at my ex the whole time, no, no, no. I got songs. I got feelings. I got vulnerabilities and sentiments.

I am not misogynistic. I am not condescending. I'm not ripping her down. I am telling my truth. Point out the difference in me and all of your female singers who have ever released songs and singles about problems, cheated on, lies, and divorces and things that they've been through.

And it's fucked up for y'all to continue coming at me like I can't express my sentiments and feelings the way women have been able to do since the beginning of time. Go get this work. Beautiful Pain. Tyrese.tv. 1992. We making history.

And everybody that try and block it, move out the way. God's got his hands on this. Tyrese Darnell Gibson. I love you, brother. Don't run from your grief, brother. It's The Breakfast Club. Wake that ass up. In the morning.

The Breakfast Club.
