Hello, who's this? This is Tiara. Hey, Tiara. Get it off your chest, mama. I am so sick and tired of these Envy fathers that you asked them to do the bare minimum, and they can't even do that. Oh, boy. What'd you ask them to do?

It's their second time calling in two weeks now. No, I never called before. Yeah, there's a lot of people that are sick of that. What'd you ask them to do, mama? First of all, I work overnight. I work at a jail. All I ask my son and father to do is teach him three nights a week while I go to work. I pick him up in the morning and take him to school.

It's nothing that you have to do with 10 days of sleep. And you can't do that. Well, you got into it. You know what you was getting into when you got into it. She probably did not know. Oh, he got into it. I don't like you. I did not know.

Who? What's his name? A chef. A chef? I let a bunch of chefs in my house. Wow. And we got a deadbeat chef. I got a deadbeat chef.

Listen, I don't like you interrupting that chef's quality time with his girlfriend to drop off his son, okay? How dare you? Throwing me a drink. Andy, you're such a family man. If you see him, you need to tell him about yourself. I don't know. You don't know what chef he has a lot of chefs. I got a bunch of different chefs.

Y'all had him on the breakfast club one time. Y'all let him come up here. You had a chef on the breakfast club? Is his food good? Yeah, his food is good. I'm sorry. So basically, this is Envy's fault somehow. Is he from a reality show?

It's not Envy's fault because Envy would never know because he's such a front-end. He likes to make it seem like he's something that he's not. Is he on a reality show? I never had no reality show?

I'll tell all the chefs to make sure they take care of their kids. All you deadbeat chefs out there. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. We're asking about your most embarrassing moment when your credit card got declined. I think mine had to be McDonald's. I was getting the kids some McDonald's, some fries, a happy meal, and it got declined. And I didn't wait for them to call me. I just took off because I was like, my credit card was like $12, $15.

Decline. What about you, Charlamagne? I don't have these problems because I don't go chasing waterfalls. I stick to the rivers and the lakes that I'm used to. And the only time I ever use my credit card is for things that... I don't really use my debit card. I use it, but I don't use it for stuff that

I know is going to be a big purchase. If I am about to make a big purchase, I call my bank and let them know, hey, I'm about to make this purchase at such and such place because I've been in those situations where I use my card and it don't go through. It's happened to me multiple times. But I know why it don't go through. It doesn't embarrass me when it don't go through, though.

It depends on who I'm with and what's going on in the situation. But it's happened to me many times. Whenever I use my MS card and I'm in a different city, I guess I must have some special extra alert on it or something. Because any time it's a purchase, they always call me when I'm not in New York or whatever. That goes by history. History. Every time I go to South Africa or I go out of the country, the first one they let me live, the second one, decline.

Yeah, and that's why I always, like if I'm going out of the country, I always call the bank, let them know I'm going out of the country. And I don't really have no problems. I never call them in advance. I just go for it. But they will call me. If I spend over $200, my bank calling me. My goodness.

Hello, who's this? DJ, what happening? What's up, bro? We're talking about the most embarrassing moment when your car got declined. Yeah, yeah. Well, I was out in Cancun. Yeah. I was at the casino.

It was actually for a wedding. So all the groomsmen went to the casino. And I got popped for all the cash I had. So I figured I could do a cash advance on my credit card for $2,500. But before I went to the ATM, I just went ahead and started borrowing from all my friends, bought $2,500 from everybody. You know what I mean? And then when I went to try to do the cash advance, got declined.

Now all my boys just tight at me. They pop for their cash that they had. I mean, that was a long ride home back on that plane with everybody tight at me. I bet it was. By the way, I don't use my card out of the country. When I go to the islands, Angola and stuff, I just take cash. I use Amex. Amex is good.

They convert the money for you, too, and if there's ever a problem, you can call and say that charge wasn't me to take it right off. But I'm always scared to use my card out of the country. I don't like using my card at the airport because I think people will steal it. I mean, that's just the truth. That's why I use Amex so much. Hello, who's this? Janae. Hey? Janae.

Hey, Janae. You ever use your card and got embarrassed? I did. We were in this restaurant in Hell's Kitchen. It was a few of us, and everyone sent me their money through Quick Pay. And I paid the whole bill on my debit card, actually, and it got declined. But I had a lot of money in my account at the time, and everybody was like, okay, what is she doing?

She just took our money and can't pay the bill. But Chase thought that it was an unusual amount of money that I was spending at a restaurant, so they cut me off. And I had to call and get everything straightened out, so they had to run it through manually. But everyone was taking their money. You know, that happens, too. You know, in some places where it's a high frequency of fraud, they would cut it off immediately. I was at a club uptown. It was called Vintage back then.

And we were all out there. It was somebody's birthday. And I bought bottles, right? And, you know, they bring you the bottles first. And then they charge the car, and it got declined. Well, we drank already. And then my phone was dead, so I couldn't get the call. I was so sick.

They were more sick. Yeah. I mean, they had to take the bottles back. Hello, who's this? It's Dave. We're talking about the most embarrassing thing that happened when you tried to use your credit card. All right, so my most embarrassing thing was I'm a contractor down here in Miami, and I was buying, I'm going to say, about $2,000 worth of material,

and I was going through the self-checkout. So now, usually, when you're going through a self-checkout, it's maybe, you know, maybe 10 items or less. But, you know, I got two carts full of stuff, and I said, I'm just going to check out my own stuff because I don't want to wait through the line. So now the lady comes asking me for help, and I'm like, no, we don't need any help. So as I'm scanning, my boy says, hey, man, she's calling security. She called security.

They got extra people at the door. And I'm like, oh, you know what? She's going to feel real stupid after I'm done scanning all my stuff and I pay for my supplies. So it comes to the point where I'm doing my checkout i'm getting ready to make the payment and i swipe my card decline and i'm like whoa i know the money's there why am i getting declined so now i gotta do that embarrassing part where you gotta make the phone call to the bank to see what's going on it looks like you don't got no money now you're just trying to stall so i make the call

and come to find out i got a 1500 limit when it comes to swiping my card that nobody told me. I have to walk away from all the materials and looking like I don't have the money. And, you know, now the lady, she's feeling all good about herself. She's like, I knew this dude didn't have no money. Look at him. And now I'm laughing with my head down with my guy like,

oh, man, it's all good. Yeah, that was my most embarrassing moment. I'm sorry to hear you was out there stealing at Home Depot, man. That's what they made it look like. But, yeah, that's how it felt. You know, also, for some reason, you know on my debit card, I can only take out $300 a day. Oh, really?

I can take out $400. I can take out $1,000. I can only take out. Why? Why y'all mad at the bank for teaching y'all how to budget? I'm not. I don't need to take out $400 a day, by the way. I might need to take out $1,000.

Like, if you gotta go to the bank to get some money, I can only give you $300. Why can't I come? Why don't you raise your limit? All you got to do is call them. I just never thought to. I was like, that's pretty good because if somebody steals my card, I know I'm only going to lose $300. I might spend $300 a week. You spend more than that on food.

Nope. $300 a week. Hello, who's this? Hey, my name is Carrie. Hey, Carrie. Has your card ever got declined in an embarrassing way? My card didn't get declined, but this guy that was taking me to lunch, this Korean restaurant, we were both soldiers.

And we ate and everything, and his card declined. So I paid, and I don't go out to eat with guys no more. You don't go out to eat with guys anymore? No. Not unless I'm paying. I'll take them. But ain't nobody going to embarrass me like that. I don't know why

you're embarrassed that someone else's card got declined, though. I think I was embarrassed for him. Okay, all right. Well, if you were so embarrassed for him,

why you didn't pull out your card and fit that bill and say, yo, I got you, boo. You know what I mean? I did. I did have to. But no,

he was trying to match. You know how you guys do it. That didn't work out. But listen, you got to face your fear, man. Let somebody take you out and spend some money on you again. Yeah, I mean, I will. I'll soften up one of these days. I ain't never, ever spent no money to get no poom poom.

I've been broke most of my life. He was just trying to impress her. He was short, and he didn't have a neck. All right, my wife. He didn't have a neck. I'm short, too. Do you have a neck? I'm short too? Okay. Does he have a neck?

I relied on my wit. You look good. You look good. Who look good? Who look good? Envy look good. Oh. This ain't Envy talking.

Sorry. It's Chalamet, mama. Okay. You sound fat anyway. That's why the bill was so goddamn high. Shut up. Shut up. The bill was so high because you was eating everything.

She sounds thin and pretty. You sound big as hell. Thank you, mama. All right. Have a good day. What buffet was y high because you was eating everything. She said I was stingy and pretty. Big as hell. Thank you, mama. Alright, have a good day. What buffet was y'all at? How did his card get declined at Golden Corral? I'm sure it was a vegan restaurant. Y'all would have spent four hours in there. Oh, because she said I look good. Who look good? Who look good?

What's tomorrow's story? Hater. The story. Tomorrow's story is don't be mad at your bank for teaching you how to budget. Okay? Because some of y'all need to get that block every now and then to make a second decision. You know what I mean? Think again about whether or not you want to purchase his purchase.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, Tekashi69. Young Tekashi69, what's happening, my brother? How you feeling this morning? Feeling real good. I'm tired of shit. Just put the mic close to you so we can hear you and everything.

What you was doing last night? You know, taking care of some business, but you know what I'm saying? I made it. Let's start from the beginning. I want to start from the beginning if you don't have a problem. What's the beginning? How do we get the name Tekashi 6ix9ine? Let's start from there.

I don't want to start there. I want to start somewhere else. You want to jump right into it? Yeah, I want to jump right into this. Well, there's been a lot of issues, like we said, and you said the hip-hop police have been bothering you. We've been seeing a lot of things with you online. Why are you causing all these problems for yourself, sir?

I don't cause no problem, man. You know what I'm saying? I address them. That's me. I'm the hottest artist in the city. You're not hotter than Cardi B. Nah, Cardi B doing her, you know what I'm saying? Cardi B is different.

Shout out Cardi B. Cardi B is in a relationship, you know what I'm saying, with more publicity. What she got, the Borac Yellow song? Yeah, number one record in the country. What, three top tens? Three top tens, yeah. She's doing FNL next week. Yeah, I'm the hottest artist in the city.

No, you're not. I'm definitely the hottest artist in the city. No. All right, but let's talk about the credentials and why you say that. Every song I put out makes Billboard Top 100. I don't get no cosigns. I don't got no G-Eazy cosign. I don't got no Offset cosign.

You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm self-made. I started it. You know what I'm saying? Cardi didn't have that in the beginning, though. She had her two mixtapes out, and then Bodak Yellow was a song by herself. That's why it was such a big deal

when she was number one. What'd you say she had two what? Two mixtapes. My first project was Top 5 Billboard debut. She had two what? Two mixtapes. My first project was Top 5 Billboard debut. She debuted on Billboard with her mixtapes. Her second mixtape. Her second. My first one. Like I said, shout out Cardi B.

I'm the hottest artist in the city. You're supposed to feel that way though. You're definitely supposed to feel that way. I know I am. Nobody gonna take that from me. I feel like I'm most hated. Everyone wants to come for me. How many people came for me? A lot. I feel like I'm most hated. You know what I'm saying? Everyone wants to come for me. How many people came for me? A lot.

How many people? A lot. Why? Because I'm the hottest artist. And nobody ever going to take it from me. You don't think telling people to suck your dick online got anything to do with it, too? Nah, I tell people to suck my dick every day. You know my father used to always say, if you tell somebody to suck your dick, man,

you got to be ready to either kill or die. I am ready to die and I'm ready to kill. Jesus Christ. That's not what we want, Tekashi. You're too young, man. Listen to me. My thing is, right? Look, if I could walk around

and say I'm the king of New York, don't you think somebody would have done something by now? Give it some time. Give it some time? Yeah. How much time? I don't know,

but I don't think that you should. Because that is a lifetime. I don't think you should be bringing that kind of energy on yourself. But listen, I'm a gangster. I know I'm a gangster. I know.

I tell everybody all the time, test my gangster, right? Oh, God. No, but listen to me. I'm not here to fit in. My message is to be yourself. Listen, I'm a kid with my gangster, right? Oh, God. Nah, but listen to me. I'm not here to fit in. My message is to be yourself. Listen,

I'm a kid with rainbow hair, right? Mm-hmm. I'm a kid with rainbow teeth. How am I shaking up the industry like I am, man? It's just not supposed to happen. You really get to know me

and have a conversation with me. I'm a very humble, genuine dude. It seems like you don't want people to like you. Nah. Why you say that?

Because it seems like certain situations get blown out of proportion and you take it from one to a hundred. Let's bring the situation up. All right. Let's talk about you. Houston. South by Southwest. Okay.

You and J Prince. Yeah. J Prince Jr. J Prince Jr.'s birthday party. He's just saying, look, I don't even know you. I don't have no issue. I just know things that I heard. But you do have to check in and at least, like, show some respect.

That's not a bad thing. But what happened in that situation with J Prince? I don't know, homie. I remember we was in a sneaker store. It was a Saturday, I believe, right? We was in a sneaker store. A dude invited us to come, you know, show his shop some love. And he gave us some sneakers.

You know what I'm saying? So, boom, we in the sneaker store. And the dude comes up to me, the dude with the sneakers, and is just like, yo, like, do you know what I'm saying?

Yeah, yeah, not the, I address it, you know what I'm saying? Because he come in with a mob of people. His son, J Prince Jr., not the father. Yeah, yeah, not the father, the son, you know what I'm saying? And my thing is, I address him, I get up, I say, yo, what's poppin'? So the dude's like, yo, what's up? Like, you know what I'm saying?

Like, he took my energy coming off like, yo, this kid, like, he just came up to me. He don't come with his head down, bowing down. Like, you're a regular dude. You breathe like I breathe. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, it was popping. But the energy wasn't, the energy wasn't on something like, oh.

It wasn't like, what's popping? It wasn't like, it was good. It wasn't confrontational. It was like, it was good, but it was just like, I didn't feel no static between us. I didn't feel no type of, yeah, it wasn't nothing. He didn't address nothing.

God strike me dead, make me swallow my tongue while I'm talking to you. Oh, my daughter, oh, my daughter. He was in address nothing. God strike me dead, make me swallow my tongue while I'm talking to you. Oh, my daughter. Oh, my daughter. He was in the room for like, what, 30 minutes? Son didn't buy no sneakers, didn't get nothing. He was just there.

Any problem he had, he could have addressed. They was a mob, blah, and they was strapped in the sneaker store. I'm just there, you know, being myself. Like I always am. And then you went to his birthday party. Now, that was Saturday, right? Right. Next Sunday, he had his birthday party with Youngsta.

So he text us, like, my man Shadi, and he's like, yo, come to my birthday party at 12.15, no later. I guess when we get to the door, he said 12.15, no later. You know what I'm saying? But we texted him, like, yo, we ain't making it At 12-15 So I guess it was a situation Where he was like Nah like

When I travel out of town, I don't travel with 100 people. I don't travel. You know who I travel with? Two, three people. When I went to L.A. for All-Star Weekend, I don't travel with a hundred people. I don't travel. You know who I travel with? Two, three people. When I went to LA for All Star Weekend, I'm with two people. I don't walk around. Why? Because I let my n***a hang. You're kind of contradicting yourself though because you said that if you got, if somebody

got an issue with you, don't wait until they got a hundred people with them to address you. So if you're walking around proclaiming to be this big gangster, this big tough guy, you got to show up. Even if it's just you and two people. Now, listen to this, right? So, Worldstar's like, yo, we made sure we got you security, because I'm like, yo, listen, this is just me.

Like, that wasn't professional at all, blood. That was, like, that was so sketchy, blood. 6ix9ine, you're absolutely right. But you're not, so you're absolutely right in what you're saying, but you're not professional when you're online antagonizing these people. They're not just showing up for no reason.

They don't just hate you because you hot and you got. Listen, I can say whatever I want online. You know what I'm saying? So you got to deal with the consequences. Nah, I do. And like I said, like, I don't feel like I didn't take no loss. I made it back home. I got paid.

Coming into the interview, I told him, you know what I'm saying? Whatever situation we got to, we're going to bring it to the table, blah.

So when I started making music and I heard that you are cool with Scum Gang from Flatbush. Academics said that you was cool with. No, actually, you know what happened? Scum gang. They called me one night. I don't want to say no names, but you know,

there is some group that ran with Flatbush. Yeah, they called me one night and they was like, yo, I got all this information on 6ix9ine. I said, I don't care. Yeah, but you work with

Everybody's going to post your pictures of this, this, this, and that. Who was I Crip under? I live on 18 locusts, bro. You know when I say, yo, 6ix9ine this and 6ix9ine that?

And the hood I live in is Crips and Bloods. So if I'm with Crips and I'm with Bloods, yo, I didn't come home to this year. Like, you know what I'm saying? So if people's like, yo, you running with Crips, I'm running with Crips. If people say you running with Bloods, I'm running with Bloods. Or I'm running with both, I'm running with both. Like, they both my homies. You know what I'm saying?

Nobody got the balls to come up to me and do that, bro. Like, nobody got, you know what I'm saying? It's all the internet and it's all this and all that.

But I was never Crip, you know what I'm saying But I was never Crip

You know what I'm saying I was never Crip So like you said earlier You said you was Like your homies They Stop saying that to me I don't know them

But isn't that faking, though? Isn't that false flagging? Yeah, but I was never jacking it, blood. Like, I was never like, yo, I'm G-Stone, ah, ah. Like, I'm, you know what I'm saying? Half of the people that was in these videos that came from L.A., none of them was blood. And it was in the, who's that came at me um game not the other dude the the the dude that was hot mad long ago that came out um yg

why'd you get met you too i think he left a comment under game why you say you're not mad long ago then he came out with the tutor and bud Buddha song. Man, that was two albums ago. We like YG. He's got some good albums. But you have to admit that the culture of that on the West Coast is different than it is in Brooklyn. In Brooklyn, we actually are not saying these niggas. We're talking about, yo, he banned from L.A., banned from L.A. I'm in and out of the West Coast, blood. Nothing happened to me.

Because I think there is a certain type of respect you have to have. You're saying nothing happened to me, blood. I'm in and out L.A. I'm to me, man. I'm in and out LA. I'm in and out Texas. I'm in and out Arizona. And I show nothing but love. It's just rotting clout chases that I want to bring on my... You know when you the hottest in the game, you mention my name is clout.

Like this dude. What's this dude's name? The Planet of the Apes dude. Casanova. Casanova. What happened with Casanova? The dude, right? We seen you.

Yo, bro. That was a charity event. And you guys are both from Brooklyn with Casanova? The dude, right? Yo, bro. That was a charity event. And you guys are both from Brooklyn. Listen, I'm so hot, right? The record that he put out. Set tripping. You know what he did for a marketing scheme? He put my name in the title of the song.

I don't know if this still happens. Yo, if you type in 6ix9ine on YouTube, his video pops up. That was the smartest thing he could have ever did for his career. Did y'all know each other before all this? Like, oh, blah, like these, yo. You know I came out of nowhere. You know that. I came out of nowhere and I passed a lot of people

like this quick. Let's talk about you as a person. You know what I'm saying? You Mexican, right? Straight up. OK. My dad Puerto Rican, though. Your dad Puerto Rican?

That's a fact. And you was born and raised in Brooklyn? Yeah, I was born and raised in Brooklyn. Were you influenced by Onyx at all? Nah, I heard their music and I f***ed with them a lot, but nah, more of a like DMX. Hold on. I don't think he f***ed with me though. How you know?

I follow him here and follow him back. So what? Oh my God. You probably weren't even with him. I'm too over this s*** on his channel. I don't think he's on social media like that. Trey, I'm too over this s*** man. Slash, I'm too over this s***.

You're called Chola, I'm too over this shit. So what happened with the game? Now, what happened with the game? Bro, I don't know, bro. This man is 40. He got a family. He got kids, right? He got kids.

Why he not taking care of his kids? Hey, yo, bro. He worried about the wrong things. Yo, his career, he trying to spark it. You know, like an old marriage, he trying to spark it. Like, you know, like an old marriage. He trying to spark it up. Like, it's over, blood.

Like, hang it up. What you doing? Are you a registered sex offender? Nah, I'm not. Were you convicted of sex offender? Nah, I'm not.

You can actually look it up. You got a computer right there. Yeah, I did. That's why I asked. You can't believe nothing you see on the internet. That's why I'm asking you. Somebody sent a letter

up here actually about you right with charges against you and I guess it was something with you were 18 years old yeah I'm 21 now

it's been 3 years ago right you know what I'm saying I had an underage girl in a video right and you know shit happens you know what I'm saying you know girls lie about ages

everyone knows this right she was 14 a lot of people get caught up in this right yeah this is how nasty the media is. This is how nasty the media tries to paint a picture and violate. Now, I'm an 18-year-old kid, right, with my life in front of me.

Of course, like, if I didn't rap, none of this would have mattered. But now that I do rap and I'm actually, like, somebody, when these charges come up, it's like, oh my God, he's a monster. But paying it to where the people don't see like, yo, the kid is a kid. You know what I'm saying? At the end of the day, he got caught up in some shit. There was no sexual intercourse between me and the female at all. It was just I got arrested for being in the situation.

Did you plead guilty? You pled guilty, right? I pled guilty like this quick, blood. Why? I was scared, blood. I didn't have no money. I was poor. Like this was three, I wasn't rapping. Like I wasn't on some like hot. It was like, yo, you know this girl was missing and she's this age and she's in foster care and her family's trying to find her. When I'm hearing this, my heart is sinking to my stomach,

and I'm like, my girl was pregnant at the time, and it was, like, took them 15 years. It was fucking mad shit. I didn't have no money for an attorney. I didn't have nothing. I was scared, blood. I was like, yo, I'm taking this trial. I'm fighting it.

They said, yo, if you blow trial, it's 15 years. No more, blood. She was dancing on video or something? Yeah, it was just said, yo, if you blow trowels... 15 years. No, more, bro. She was dancing on video or something? Yeah, it was just like, yo, I don't know if you ever saw a video of me back in the day when I pedigreed this girl. You never seen that? I did

this wrestling move on this girl. That was back in the day when I was going. That ain't funny. Why'd you pedigree a girl? I don't know. I was doing viral shit. I was literally mad. Are you was, like, I was literally mad. You were playing? Are you serious? No, I was obviously playing.

It went viral. It was on Worldstar. You know what I'm saying? I feel like when I pled guilty, I was just scared. It was me going through a jail system for the first time, and it was just like, yo, my life changed like this. So does that make you a registered sex offender now because you did plead guilty?

No, I was a youth offender now because you did plead guilty? Nah, I'm, I was a youth, I got a youth offender. A juvenile, right. Are you signed a birdman? Nah, I'm not signed a birdman. Okay,

so you just posted that. Yeah, that's just mad. Yeah, blah, like, I be, I be trolling.

You see how I get under his skin? You're not under my skin. I can see I'm under his skin. Everyone knows, I'm under his skin. You're not under my skin. But you see, like,

I probably rub off wrong to you, him, and probably a lot of people, I probably rub off wrong to you, him, and probably a lot of people, but at the end of the day, it's my job to get under people's skin. Well, listen,

you're not under my skin, but I'd just be concerned because you're a young man, you're making money. People like your music. I don't understand why you have to do all the other antics.

I don't do it, but I address situations. Like, name one situation I started. I don't know, but it seems like you started a lot. No, no, no.

Name one situation. The Houston situation. I feel like you escalated. How did I start? You escalated. No, no. I didn't ask that. That wasn't my question.

My question is saying, name a situation I started. I don't know if you started any. All right. That's all. No, that's not all. You do escalate a lot of things. Name one situation I started. I never said that.

I said things. I just say things go from one to 100. That's all. You don't take no responsibility for nothing? No, I do said that. I said things go from one to a hundred. That's all. You don't take no responsibility for nothing? Nah, I do take responsibility. But my question right now is name one situation I started. I just want to hear one situation I started. If y'all could give me one.

No, I can't think of one. I really don't know. Ask me some situations you continued. Every one. Exactly. You know why? You know why? Exactly.

But you know why, right? Because I don't let nobody play with my name. Yo, if I was such a big, bad pedophile rapist, you think I'd be sitting in this chair right now, blood? You know what I'm saying? Imagine if I didn't have all the hate. Imagine if I didn't come out with all the hate. You'd be a way bigger artist.

You know you can stop the hate. You'd be a way bigger artist. It's a way to stop it. This is the way I'm doing it. Because now the shenanigans is lost in the music. Because you make good records, but people see the shenanigans over the hits. Ain't nobody that, like, this is my thing, right?

A lot of people could say a lot about me, but a lot of people not putting up the numbers I put up. Do you think sometimes about your daughter and, like, what she sees and what she might think also? Yeah, blood. Like, you think she's not going to watch this interview and, like, when she gets older and she's going to sit here and watch that camera recording me and then him saying, yo, aren't you a sex offender? You know what I'm saying? I know this is all going to fall back to me. You know what I'm saying?

She can see that on the internet. Now she's going to see that everywhere. You know what I'm saying? That's why she needs to hear from you what really happened. But I'm with her every day. You know what I'm saying? She's going to know. She's going to know.

I'm her father at the end of the day. I'm with her. You know what I'm saying? I'm there for her. I make gonna know. I'm her father at the end of the day. I'm with her. You know what I'm saying? I'm there for her. I make sure I can provide for her. You think I'm gonna let people stop me from that? That shit makes me produce a hit every time. But your hit is lost with the bulls, though.

It's not lost. It is. Where's it lost? On the charts? No, no, no, man. I'm telling you. It's lost on the charts, right? Takashi, where's it lost at?

Takashi, somebody's gonna try you, bro. When you say When you say it's lost When you say it's lost The only way I can't find it I don't know if it's Number 50 on the charts

If it's number 20 on the charts That's where That's where I lose it at The first thing you say When somebody says Takashi Ain't that he makes Dope records is He's in the beef again

That's the first thing That comes out of Persia's mouth And it shouldn't be that way It should be The nigga's independent And he has records on the charts That should be the first thing

You know every song I put out since Gilmore is charted. I know. I could brag. I could sit here and brag all day about my numbers. You know there's people that get no hate, that's straight love. There's nobody that gets just love. That's not the reality of life. There's no love without hate.

No, no, no, no, no. I'm not saying we're absolute, but I'm talking about people that actually get clear to no hate. No matter how much I'm hated, nobody's doing what I'm doing. You that actually Get like clear to no hate Like no matter how much I'm hated Nobody's doing what I'm doing You took your GED test yet? Yeah I took it and I passed it And I wanted to save it

So the video that I'm about to drop Is actually called Day 6 Non-Graduation Day And I passed it So can you say congratulations? Congratulations Thank you I'm happy for you So I did pass it

And my court date's April 10th. They're going to keep you out of jail for real? Yeah. Word. What happened to the boy you choked? The allegedly choker Houston. Not his video. There's a video.

Not a kid. Just tried to make a name for himself. He's like 12, though. This is the time, yeah. So he came up to me with a phone saying, calling me all type of names. I grabbed him by his jacket, never touched his skin, never. Like, his jacket was probably the thing that choked him. But, you know what I'm saying? I guess he tried to do something and it was just like but that's what

you got to be worried about everybody trying that but aren't you doing the same thing though yeah but i don't put my hands on people like you know i'm saying at the end of the day my messages right there's these people i want to make an example the reason for the rainbow hair the reason for the rainbow team i'm the kid that literally was not supposed to. Like, I'm literally showing the industry that all that fake gangsta shit, cut it out, bro. Look how stupid I look right now. I got a big-ass 6ix9ine on my face, right? With rainbow hair. And I'm literally sitting here talking to you and talking about all these people want to be for me and all these people calling me out.

How stupid do they look? Like, I'm literally the one getting under their skin and making them act out of character. You know why though. Yeah, but look, gangsters don't even say what they're going to do. They do it. But you know why though. I don't hide, blood. I just think that with the gang culture in L.A., that's something that I can't even comprehend what that's like growing up like that.

That's deep-rooted, just how it started. But where do you get that from? Because my thing is, do you get it from movies? Like, what do you get? Gosh, you young, my brother. You young, man. You have no clue. Nah, listen, I respect a lot of gang culture that happened in L.A.,

but there's gangsters all over the world, blood. You know what I'm saying? And I'm not saying that we tougher than them or they tougher than us. We going to hold our own, like, you know what I'm saying? I never took nothing away from L.A. You can't pull up one video right now Saying that I took Something away from LA Cause I never did it

But what you're doing Could get you killed And I think that's part Of what everybody's saying Is cause they're trying To quote unquote check you So other kids don't Follow in that same footstep

And famous last words are I can't be touched I mean well this is This is what I'm gonna say To you Charlamagne Till that day I'm gonna laugh Because I know

When that day comes Everyone's gonna laugh So right now But you can prevent that day Is what we trying to i know when that day comes everyone's gonna laugh so right now you can prevent that day is what we're trying to tell you then that's what i've been doing blah like what you mean like i've been preventing you can't tell somebody suck your and then don't show up right you know what i'm saying i showed up why you keep saying i didn't show up oh we don't know if you showed up you said you did but we didn't see you want to call jay right now yeah all right let me why not come on?

Anybody has embraced you, reached out to you? That's the thing. Somebody that you're like- Yo, we in New York, right? Mm-hmm. What? Maybe these older artists.

Yo, we in New York, right? Name one cosign I got. Name one. I haven't heard one. Yo, this is crazy, right? The numbers that I've put up is without no cosign. Like, this is why I'm saying, like, yo, hopefully I'm making some with Cardi B. Like, I love Cardi B.

No, I didn't see it. That's mad long ago, man. I don't know why he asked you that. In Lean On Me, Joe Clark said, Joe Clark said, if you don't change your ways, you'll be dead in a year, son.

All right, listen, man. Charlemagne Tha God here. I'm on vacation. I don't give a damn what y'all think about that because I deserve it. Now, the Breakfast Club is in 80-plus markets in 150 countries, so we have a lot of new listeners

who probably don't even know who Charlemagne Tha God is, so use my time off to catch up on some of my past work. Okay? Okay. If you're new here, I do a segment every day called Donkey of the Day. Donkey as in jackass. And that's when I give someone the credit they deserve for being stupid.

So if you never heard of it, this is new to you. But if you are a regular listener, then this is an oldie but goodie because it's the best of the Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day goes to the unseasoned, boneless chicken breast that America knows. It's Taylor Swift. Now, I'd be lying to y'all if i told you that i don't think taylor swift got some bops okay 1989 album was dope drop on the clues bombs for that album damn it all right shake it off still fire to me to this day now there's only one thing that irritates me about taylor swift and that is when she acts fake surprise when she wins awards i can't stand

that fake humility she displays in those moments but But other than that, I got no problem with the warm bowl of mayonnaise soup that is Taylor Swift. But Taylor Swift did something that grinded my gears. Taylor Swift released the cover of Earth, Wind & Fire's 1978 love jam, September. Now, I don't give a damn how old you are. If you was raised in a black household, you have heard this record at some point in your life. Me personally, I grew up around jukeboxes. All right. My father managed a club growing up called The Zebra,

and I can remember hearing that song all the time, whether it was in The Zebra or in a fish market my father owned or in his truck. Earth, Wind & Fire, September was one of those rare songs that was always in rotation everywhere. What's crazy is I just realized this weekend the song was called September. I had no idea. I never thought about it.

But I know the words, though. Hit it. Do you know the words, though. Hit it. Do you remember the 21st night of September? Love was changing the minds of pretenders while chasing the clouds away. Our hearts were ringing and the keys of our souls were singing As we danced in the night

Remember how the stars throw the night away I bet you don't know what you're dancing to Bonnie, I'm saying you remember Bonnie, I'm dancing in the night Bonnie, I'm is a tender Bonnie, oh Never was a cloudy day Okay, alright, alright Come on now, classic 2018

Let's go, drop one of Clues Bob's Earth, Wind and Fire, damn it, okay Classic doesn't begin to describe that record And when you're dealing with a classic record like that You shouldn't touch it, leave it alone Nobody should touch it unless you're drunk Performing karaoke somewhere. But clearly this human Hellman's jar in the flesh

Taylor Swift didn't get the memo because she jumped out the window and decided to cover September. Okay. And if that idea just the idea of Taylor Swift covering September sounds whack. All right. Just hearing me. If just hearing me talk about it sounds whack. Well, Taylor didn't let you down. She gave us the most basic

gluten-free rendition of September you will ever hear, ladies and gentlemen. If Duke's Mayonnaise could sing, it would sound like this. Do you remember? Huh? 28th night of September. Love was changing the minds of pretenders. Oh, my goodness. While chasing the clouds away.

Our hearts were ringing. Is that a banjo? Fart, please. It's not goodness. Sheesh. You ever seen that video where they was eating mayonnaise with a spoon? Ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah. I had to stir up in my mouth. Oh, yeah. Dancing in September.

Oh, okay, enough. That didn't give me the same feeling. No, I definitely didn't get the same feeling. Shake it off. First of all, instead of September, Taylor Swift should have called this song Nebuary, okay? Because that's the moment this song should have been recorded and released in all right Taylor you lack the one thing it takes to pull this cover off and that's soul all right there's no such thing as a soulless earth wind and fire song and unless you have soul you can't even attempt to cover one of these

records in fact I came across a pressing question once on social media, and that question was, what happens to someone's soul when they become a zombie? I don't know the answer to that question, but the next time I see that question asked online, I'm going to send them a link to Taylor Swift's cover of September. Look, Taylor, don't go chasing earth, wind, and fire, okay? Stick to the I knew you with troubles and the shake it off that you're used to. Play that unseasoned, boneless, chicken breast ballad once more, please. Please. Oh, come on.

All right. I just want to play the fart on it. Fart on that record. No. Oh, louder. There you go. All right. Ass gas on that trash.

One more time. One more time. Oh. Okay. Okay. Okay. One more fart. One more fart. I had to force that one out.

Come on. Might have been a shark. Come on. Listen, man. Two things we learned from this. One, you got to have soul to cover earth, wind, and fire, period. And two, there are four natural elements that exist on this earth. Earth, wind, fire, and water.

Okay? I repeat, there are four natural elements that exist on this planet, and mayonnaise will never be one of them. Please give Taylor Swift the sweet sounds and the hammer tones, please. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. Soul.

You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Alright hear that soul? All the day. Yee-haw. All right. That's just straight acapella. Three brothers with soul. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We have a special guest in the building. He's back again. Tekashi 69. That's good. Why are you causing all these problems for yourself? Well, first of all, let's start this the right way. Why is your name Takashi69?

I'm going to start there. Why are you calling me 69? I'm going to start there. Where do you want to start? Where do you want to start? Ask him anything. Why are you causing all these problems for yourself in the street? I don't start problems, man.

You know, I'm just being me. I let my niggas hang because I'm over 40. Got you. It ain't like I, man. You know, I'm just being me. I let my n****s hang because I'm over 40. Got you. Grab it. It ain't like I wanted to let them hang, but it just happens when you get older like that. You know what I'm saying? True, true, true. So I didn't know who you was, honestly, until I got in here.

I mean, you ain't no Ebro. True. That's a fact. You know? That's true. That's a fact. I know that. Why do you feel like, you know, that you feel like you can just be a tough guy?

Why do you want to be in the streets so bad? I got no L's. None. Now, granted, I ran from a lot of fights. It is what it is. Ain't nobody got it on tape. You know what I mean? I had to do sucker punch from the sixth grade, playing tetherball,

but ain't nobody have it back then because nobody have cell phones. So as far as on the camera goes, I got no L's, you know? But you know, they say you were a crip first, and then now you're blood. Is there any truth to that? We all bloods. I'm O positive. What are you? Right?

So what are you? You know what blood type you are? I really don't. What are you? I'm A positive. So we ain't in the same gang. So I can't run with you. Because if I get hurt, what's she going to do?

O positive is very rare. Right. So I'm O positive. So I was with the Crips when I realized when you get shot or you get stabbed and blood comes out, Crips can't do nothing for you. But Bloods can help other Bloods. If you O positive, you can help me. But if you O negative, can't do nothing with you.

Because it's four different types of blood gangs. You guys didn't know that. Aren't you concerned about all the beef with all these other artists that you've been coming in? I'm vegan. So I stopped eating beef three years ago. You know what I mean? I got no beef because there ain't no beef in my system. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know what I mean? I saw you were just in Maui also. Yeah, I was in Maui. What was you doing out there? Yeah, yeah. You know, just took the road to Hannah, ate some banana bread. Because I'm a vegan, I can eat that. You know what I mean? They tried

to set me up with the Vietnamese fried rice, but there's pork in it. I don't eat swine. Boom. I stopped eating swine when I started watching prison movies. And I realized a lot of prisoners don't eat swine because it ain't good for you. In prison, that's not the meat you should worry about being in your mouth.

Right. That's why I ain't go. I got no L's. Right? Yeah, yeah. Check it. Boom. Now, was there bloods in Maui? Nah, there wasn't no bloods in Maui, man. It was just me and my lady. You know what I mean? Why are you dressed up like 6ix9ine? Gary Owen?

What? I don't know. Is Tekashi going to have a sense of humor about this? Or is this going to be now? I don't even know who you're talking about. This is me. He's got a sense of humor. What? I don't know. Is Tekashi going to have a sense of humor about this? Or is this going to be now? I don't even know who you're talking about. This is me. He's got a sense of humor. Who? The kid.

Never heard of him. Oh. Never heard of him. Why are you dressed up like Tekashi, Gary? This is me, man. This is me, man. That's you, okay? This is me.

I'm independent. I'm the hottest artist in the streets right now. This is my city. What about Callie B? Yeah, yeah. I didn't say New York. See, you took words out of my mouth. I'm talking about Oxford, Ohio.

Hottest artist in Oxford, Ohio. Right? Yeah, any other artists come from there other than Wally Serbiak? No. I give you that. Yeah, exactly. Ben Roethlisberger. Yeah.

Yeah. Get on my d*** to let him hang. Who did all those tattoos for you? I've always had them. Every time I come in, I usually wore makeup because I felt like it was going to take away my brand. But now I'm like, I got to be me because ain't nobody else trying

to put me on. You know what I mean? I be in Houston. I be in L.A. I catch a flight right now to L.A. I will. I've been to L.A. I used to live there. Do you check in when you get there? Nah, check in with my wife. But that's it.

You don't hit up Kevin hard and none of them to be like, yo, am I good? Dude, he used to open for me, right? I never opened for him, ever. You know what I mean? Like, I know what you're going to say. You're going to do, oh, I did Madison Square Garden, all that. I did Statue of Liberty inside the Torch. Yeah, it was a private show, 10 people.

No cameras. Boom. Shut down, it was a private show, 10 people. That's very small, yeah. No cameras. Boom. Shut down, blood. You heard me? Get it. Now, is it true that Netflix keeps denying you a special every year? Yeah, yeah. They say no every year, but I'm fine.

I do my own stuff. Yeah, yeah. S***. Just wanted to cuss for no reason. Yeah, I do my own stuff, you know? Netflix tells me no every year. Why? That's why.

I don't know. Do you want too much money? We don't even get that far. No. We don't even get that far. Are you serious? They don't even make you an awful? They tell me no so fast. I just gotta do my own thing. My last, my last three specials I did myself. And I just, I sold them to Showtime.

But I did them myself. But. That seems the route to go. Do it yourself and then sell it. No, that's not the route to go. That's a lie. That's the industry wants you to think. The best is to get somebody else to put up the money. Then you ain't got to worry about the stress of promoting all the other stuff. But I just did it myself. That's why when people come in and say nobody's put me on for whatever reason,

you put yourself on. You know what I mean? Like I put these tattoos on myself. I couldn't find a tattoo artist to put my tattoos on. So I did it myself. You did a good job. You did a great job. Yeah, because all I did was, it was 69.

I just put in my brain 96 because I'm looking at it backwards. Oh, that's the fact. But look how perfect it came out. Is that a permanent marker or how? We're going to find out. We're going to find out today when I head up Chipotle for lunch. Obviously, I'm getting a vegetarian burrito bowl. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We had another gang member in here, and she said that the reason Netflix keeps denying you is because you have a black audience, and they don't value the black audience. I mean, there's a little bit of truth to that. Yeah. I think it's more they don't know what to do with me.

You know what I mean? Because it's like I've showcased for Comedy Central central before and then afterwards the guy met with me and i thought i had it i called my manager i said i think we got it and then he said gary's funny for his audience and he really connects to them we're not sure he's funny for our audience so i didn't i never been on comedy central never been on netflix which is a reality show on BET, though. Did that. Got canceled after one season. That hurt. You know what I mean? We ain't talking about that. Why did they cancel? I thought it was funny as hell.

They got rid of all the execs. Like Stephen Hill got, and Stephen Hill's actually the one that really was behind and bought our show. I don't know who these all guys are outside your window. They looking at you looking like you're crazy. Why are they staring at me? I'm gonna go over here. See? Look at the back of my head. Now you know how we feel.

Yeah, yeah. It's real hip-hop, baby. It's on your back, on your haters. There's definitely a bunch of people out here. You know what I mean? Shoot. Ain't nobody ready for this. Yo, where's Trey Day when I need him?

You know? I can't. Where's Trey Way? Where's Trey Way? Yo, I came with one white lady. I should have came with six black dudes. Dang. Okay.

Got to get my clout on my dang. I'm circumcised. Get it. What was we talking about? We were talking about the BET special. Oh, my God. Yeah, Stevie. Yeah, they let go of all the execs.

And I knew when they said real husbands ain't coming back. And that was our lead in. They didn't bring real husbands back? Nah, that's been gone too. And then we got let go. But the bad part is the way they let us go is that we got called in the office and we had a discussion. Usually when you get called in the office, it's good news.

Right. Nah. I felt like Will Smith when his dad left. With Ben Perrine. Yeah, it's cool. I'm fine. And my manager was sitting there, hugged her. Yeah, we did a good little honey moment.

How'd it go? They called you in the office and said what? They just said, you know, ain't going to happen. So it is what it is. You know, keep it moving. You know what I mean? You can't hold me down. You always stay working, though.

Always. Yeah, always. I sell out. People don't know that. You know, I did the NJ pack back in November. Sold it out. Well, white people would say you're selling out now with all the tattoos and the rainbow hair what white people

you're selling out name one you're selling out white culture name one name one white person says I'm a sellout name one

dude dude and I'll tell you this I'll tell you this right now right now don't cut this interview off of 17 minutes

last one it was 1741 I ain't like that you be having these other comments on for 40-45 minutes 1741 and I ain't like that. You be having these other comics on for 40, 45 minutes. 1741. And I'm funnier than all of them. But you killed in 17, though. You didn't need

45. That's true. That's real hip-hop. I see you. See, that's the difference between me and other artists. I can compromise. Other motherfuckers don't want to compromise. I compromise. See, when I say you right, you right. Right? That's true. But you couldn't name one white person that thinks I'm a sellout. That's true. Right, because they don't know me. Donald Trump. Yeah, when I say you right, you right. Right? That's true. But you couldn't name one white person that thinks I'm a sellout. That's true. Right, because they don't know me. Donald Trump.

Yeah, whatever. Whatever. Hit it raw, baby. You funny than Michael Blackson? Man. He's one strict pony. You know? Mother sucker. After that, what you got? Tell me your favorite Michael Blackson joke. Rest my case. Boom. What's your favorite Michael Blackson joke

of all time? Your favorite one besides Mother Sucker. He ain't got one. I like when he did the for the p***y challenge with Erykah Badu on Instagram. That's not a joke. That's a sketch. All right? Anybody can do Key and Peele. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know? I'm going to stand up at the court. Who? Faison hate? Yeah, I don't call him love. I call him Faison hate because a lot of hate coming out of his heart right now. Yeah. Yeah, it's real hip hop.

About to get real in here. Yeah, and I would never say this to anybody's face, by the way. Ever. So, everything I'm about to say, if you see me in these streets, I'm going to deny it. I'm going to say they edited it wrong. How do you feel about the hate that comes from certain comedians towards other comedians? It's valid. It's valid.

So you think Chappelle's not funny. Boom. We got that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. At times. At times. Chappelle was not funny and you got mail with Tom Hanks. He was not funny in that movie.

You got mail? Exactly. He wasn't funny in that movie. I don't recall. So you're not funny all the time. I did a pilot one time. It wasn't funny. It didn't get picked up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know? But I don't watch stand-up, honestly. I did a pilot one time. It wasn't funny. It didn't get picked up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know? But I don't watch stand-up, honestly. I don't watch none of it. Really? Because I always feel like comics, they watch other stand-ups, and they might not take their jokes, but they take their mannerisms and their vibe. There's a lot of Dan Cooks out there right now, I noticed.

When Dan Cook was hot, and then he'd be like, I eat, I eat. I'm throwing up, I'm throwing up. Comics started moving like that, and I i was like why are they doing that sorry sorry about that oh man Oh, man. That's sweet. I hope they'll stick them up my head. Whoa. I might be scalped. You might be scalped. I feel like most of the beef we've had on the show lately

have been between comedians. Like, some... Yeah. That has been, like, the biggest thing. It's good, though, because, you know, ain't nobody got beef with Shucky Ducky. Salute to Shucky Ducky. So if you got beef, it means you're doing something right.

Right. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So everybody got beef. So you're trying to start something Right. You know what I mean? So everybody got beef. So you're trying to start something, basically. Dude, I don't want to start nothing. I don't watch anybody. So I can't tell you who's funny and who's not.

I watch myself. How many streets? All those Netflix specials like Chris Rock, Chappelle. Haven't watched any of them. You know what it is? I always want to feel like my jokes are mine and they come from me. Because I really saw, like Bo Jackson said, when he retired from football, he stopped watching football. And I was like, I always thought that was weird.

But then I was like, well, I'm like that was stand-up. I don't watch it. I never want to think my jokes aren't coming from me. Like I don't care. I'll give you an example. Me and D.L. Hughley had the exact same joke, right? And it was a topical joke. It was when LeBron left Cleveland to go to Miami.

Right. And we both had a joke about him leaving Cleveland was when LeBron left Cleveland to go to Miami. Right. And we both had a joke about him leaving Cleveland. Like, we've been to Cleveland, been to Miami. And I was like, that's not a hard decision if you ask me where I want to live. I was like, it's like, who would I rather, Beyonce or Precious? Obviously, I'm going to go Beyonce. So we collated Miami to Beyonce, Precious to Cleveland. So I went on stage before him and said it.

Not that I was opening for him. I did a guest spot. I don't open for nobody before you even go there, right? I just stopped by and said, what's up? I didn't open. I don't open for shit. Okay. All right.

I'm a headliner. You came on before him. Headliner. Let my nuts hang. Okay. All right. Now listen, blood. Listen.

All right. Real talk. Right? So me and DL are in Miami. I do the joke. Boom, right? Check it. So then DL does it.

And then we went out to dinner afterwards. And I say, you noticed the one joke didn't get a laugh? He goes, yeah. And the only reason I saw it, I was walking to the lobby to do a meet and greet real quick. And he's like, yeah. And then I told him. But see, that's the difference. Some comics be like, you stole it from me or he stole it from you.

Me and DL both know we're original comics. Like, there's only so many thought processes that can go through our brain. It just happened. It was timely. And it happened. So there wasn't no beef between me and DL. Real hip-hop, baby. Yeah, boom, check it.

Poor Precious. Poor Precious. But that was back then. That was back then. She looks better now. Monique is not going to be happy about you, Dishon Precious. What? Monique is not going to be happy about you, Dishon Precious.

Here we go with this shit again. I don't know what's funny about Monique either. I ain't got no beef with Monique. I just didn't like her talking about Will Packer. I thought it went too far when she tried to collate the slaves, taking the other slaves at the bottom of the slave ship, and when she tried to collate Harvey Weinstein, those girls being quiet to Will Packer.

That's when I was like, yo, relax. In fact, I just auditioned for Will's new movie with Taraji called What Men Want. If I don't get the part, then I'm going to do a Monique and claim racial and gender bias. If I don't get it. But if I get it, then we good. But if not, then I'm going to be back.

And I did the audition like this. So I should get it. I don't think you'll get it if you did it like that. So you and Will are clearly the same blood type then. We all, I think he's O positive. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, he ain't put me in a movie in a while, but it's cool. Terrence J ain't put me on Safe Word.

It's cool. Yeah, ain't nobody have beef with an MTV host. Boom, BET. Sorry, my fault. It all looks the same to me. I don't even think Will should make you audition. You roll for him. Right? Yeah.

Right? But I like to earn my parts. It's protocol. You know what I mean? The only movie I ever got that I didn't really audition for was Thing Like a Man. That was a big role. Yeah, he called me and was like,

yo, I got this movie. I need this white dude that can hang out with black dudes but not act black. And I was like, and I was lying to him because really that's who I am, obviously.

So I lied to him and I was like, yeah, I can do it. And that's what I did. White dude that to him and I was like yeah I can do it and that's what I did white dude that hangs out with black people but not act like he's too down

gotcha right now that's the real me boom check it blood yeah why you always got a green drink every time I see the camera oh this is my breakfast

every morning what is that it's kale ginger green apple and grapefruit you put fruit in it no I just gotta go all vegetables it'll clean you out and green apple don't grapefruit. You put fruit in it? No, I just got to go all vegetables.

It'll clean you out. Don't do that. No, just go celery, kale, parsley, mint. I'm not asking what you like. That's going to sound too gangster, my G. I'm telling you what the hell. You don't understand. I never said I was gangster.

I just said I'm in these streets and I let my n***** hang. Got you. Because I'm over 40, it's natural. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You just hang naturally. Right.

I don't even know. Do you have a book? Yeah. What's it called? Black Privilege. It's right there. You never heard of it? Well, that's original.

And I got a nationally syndicated radio show, a hit podcast, executive produced TV shows and movies. I got a podcast. Boom. I got 3,000 viewers on YouTube last week. 3,000. Hashtag get some. Yeah, look it up. That's real? Real hip hop.

Yeah, I got a real podcast. Gary Owens? Yeah, Gary Owens. No S. Yeah, I got a real podcast. I can win on everybody and nobody knows it. That's why he listens. You got a black wife. Did she get upset when you came at Monique? She just told me, be ready.

She said, be ready for what's coming. And it was true, man, because black Twitter's real. It is. That's real. And I think they're all in the same room. I think they're all in the same room. I think it's like 10 people in the same room. Because they all said the same thing.

Stay in your lane. This don't concern you. Leave black. I don't know. Somebody called me culture vulture. I don't know somebody call me culture vulture I know what that was you a culture vulture well what you're doing right now is probably considered culture vulture culture vulture sounds like some crazy bird trying to break into Wakanda you know like like to chala to chala Oh
