I'm going to say it anyway. Go. Right, right. So, I've been married for four years. I'm 30 years old. And my husband is incarcerated in the feds right now. So, long story short, he be like tracking me on Facebook, on every type of social media. I don't know if he got people screen recording or whatever, but all I do is go to work and go home.

That's crazy. So he just got caught with a cell phone and they gave him a ticket. And so they took his business for a whole year, a whole freaking year they took his business

over the cell phone. He goes and get another cell phone tracking me, talking about some guy I don't even know on Instagram. Just all this stupid stuff and I'm just like, what more do you want?

I'm there for you. Your family ain't there. I'm the only one doing everything. I work and go home. That's all I do. I'm the only one doing everything. I work and go home. That's all I do. I don't even go out. This man is on my back 24-7. I don't know what to do.

When did you get home? Yeah, but you got to understand, that's just all jail-related stress. That's all. That man is miserable. I know he's miserable, and I try to be there 100,000%. I'm there for him more than I'm here for myself. But I'm emotionally drained. Like, he just be doing too much

always accusing me and making stuff up and just going crazy. Like, so I just don't go out. I just stay home. Oh, my God. I wouldn't do that. But you do have to know

where all that is coming from. That's literally only him projecting all his insecurities and fears on you because he's in jail. That's it. It's not fair to you. It's definitely not.

Right, it's not fair. So that's what I'm saying. How do I go about it? What did he do to get locked up? Somebody switched on him. His old husband. He was doing something, right? What was he doing? Listen, I don't know where he was going. I don't know.

He wrote a paperwork on him and that's how he got wrapped up. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten wrapped up. She ride or die right here. Have a good one.

He was about 15 years old, and he was jumped by police. They took him to jail.

They had him sign papers, and he didn't even have his parents with him. Damn. He didn't put that law. Oh, my God. I'm sorry. So they basically forced him to confess to something that he didn't do. Correct. Gotcha.

That is awful. I'm sorry about that, Mama. And we can see how that can happen, as we've seen it happen many times. That's awful. I even went to go visit him, and the police wouldn't let us visit him. Is that illegal?

If you need to hit us up right now, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. I thought she was up here before, but this is her first time. This is my first time here. I'm excited. We popping that cherry for Evelyn. Lazada, welcome. Alright, now hold on. I want to go back, though, because this is Evelyn's first time here. I knew you before you did Basketball Wives.

And you were for real, for real friends with Jennifer. That's actually how I know you. Yes. So you were in her wedding. You guys knew each other from back in the day, from being in Toronto, right? No, from being in Boston. Oh, in Boston together. Yeah, Boston. That was f***ing each other now, huh?

No, it's the relationship. Can we get to that, Envy? I'm sorry. Relax. The relationship is strange. You know what? We say it's like a toxic marriage. You know, it really is. But why? Y'all didn't have sex with the same man. We never had sex with the same man. So why is the problem?

Because she was talking about Shanice. Yeah, so that's the real issue. Can we get to that? I want to start off. Shanice is my daughter. Now, so this is all crazy to me because I watched all of that unfold on the show. Because, you know, sometimes it's hard for me to watch it. Because I do know you guys were, like, best friends

for quite some time and we were in, you know, the Bahamas together, wedding together. And so to see your friendship deteriorate the way

that it has after watching the show, do you think that perhaps the show contributes to this? Because people are trying to come up with storylines. There's things being said.

You watch the show. You're like, when did that happen? This got edited a certain way. Do you feel like your friendship suffered because of it? I feel so... So last season, I genuinely wanted to work on my friendship with her because, you know,

there was so much that had happened with Chad, whatever. You know, so I'm like, I'm past it. You know, I wanted to work on the relationship with her. We had our scene on the beach. That was a real authentic thing. We cried and I was like, cool, whatever wanted to work on the relationship with her. We had our scene on the beach. That was a real authentic thing. We cried and I was like, cool, whatever we said back in the day, it don't even matter. Like, you know, I love you and I care

about you. So, you know, let's just keep doing this. So then actually that was the season before last. Then last season, it comes out that she was saying things about Shanice. So it was hard for me to process. What did she say, though?

What did she say about Shanice? You know, she said, allegedly, she said that, you know, my daughter was a latchkey kid. For anybody that knows me, I don't care who I've dated, what I've done. Like, I'm a great mom. Like, I take care of my kids. You know, from day one, I had my daughter pregnant, 16,

had her at 17. So she'd been rocking with me from day one. So that, to me, was, it was hurtful. because, you know, Jackie saying something about Shanice is it doesn't matter. She never met Shanice. But Jennifer, you just said you were swimming with the dolphins. You're seven years old. You've been to birthday parties. So I'm kind of like, I know we've been through some stuff, but even Tammy and I, we have never talked about each other's kids.

So that just really hurt my heart. You still say alleged, though. Well, because I can't give too much away with this season, but the truth comes out, you know, and it comes out from her. So, you know, when she was up here, I watched it and I said to myself, OK, I didn't know what the truth was still. But now in hindsight, I'm like, you know, you went on the show and you played the victim and you weren't truthful. You know, you know, she made she made comments

about Malaysia while she was up here, called her a linebacker and whatever it was. But meanwhile, Malaysia, Malaysia was speaking the truth. So it's like, just say like, look, you know what?

I was mad at you. I couldn't stand you. And I did say stuff about your daughter because I was I was upset. I'll take that. But instead, you you tried to't stand you. And I did say stuff about your daughter because I was upset. I'll take that. But instead, you tried to cover it up. But because

especially with this season, it comes up again. It comes up again because everybody knows you're not being truthful. And it's hard for me to move past that. How do you move past that? Not when you go to the kids. This is what I'm saying. Punch me, kick me. punch me kick me not my kids

not my kids and I feel like you know I love her to death I don't wish her anything negative in life better than me

but talk about my kids whatever happens happens yeah but you know when it comes to my baby somebody that you've spent time with

and Shanice is so innocent she's been the topic of conversation for two seasons right and it's like she never apologized never said sorry, never warmed up. I was texting her when we started filming this season,

which is another thing. I'm like, you know, you could have reached out to her prior to filming. Everything's not for the show. You felt like you didn't put a show. Everything's not for the show. You could have reached out to me after Amsterdam and been like, you know what? Like, I want to talk to you one-to-one.

Shanice, I'm sorry that your name is being thrown around like this. But that never happened. How hard is it for Shanice to, she's not even really on the show like that. And you know her. She's so like, I mean, she looks how she looks, but she's such a sweet soul.

So she's just, I feel bad. And as her mom, I feel responsible because I'm the one that's on the show. You know, so it's not fair to her, you know? It's like, why is she always the topic of conversation? Just because, you know, she's this beautiful girl that, you know, women want to hate on because that's all I can think of. Like what else could it possibly,

or because you want to take a dig at me and that's really the way they know to get to you. Yes. And you know, look, all the therapy and all the yandlas in the world, like when it comes to my kids, I'm not, I'm not f***ing around. All right, we got more with Evelyn Lozada. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Evelyn Lozada. Yee? So with Carl, I saw you and Tammy had a back and forth over her commenting on his post. Yeah. Right?

And you felt like she was being thirsty or whatever. But understanding that she was supporting Meg Thee Stallion, do you feel like that's... I just feel like she should have been on Meg Thee Stallion's page. You know what I'm saying? Okay. Like Carl, it's not like Carl has 100,000 followers on Instagram. He's active now

and we could talk about the Meg Thee Stallion thing because when he had a conversation that he was going to start this record label, we were still together and I'm not going to lie. I kind of was like oh, here we go. An athlete trying to do something. Don't do it. I did did i thought that he and he

Hey, Kelly. Who you want to slander? Charlamagne. Why you want to slander Charlamagne? I'm a fairly new listener. I've been listening for about two years. And Charlamagne has been open and honest about what he went through as a child in terms of his sexual molestation. And, you know, I wonder if maybe you need to explore that a little deeper in your therapy, because out of the three of y'all, Charlamagne, you are the only one that makes so many over-the-top sexual references about man parts, about doing things sexually that most people don't even talk about in the privacy of their own home. And I wonder if it's because you have residual issues with what happened to you

because it's very cringeworthy to listen to you make so many over-the-top sexual references. You do talk about men, but a lot. That's a valid point. Yeah, that's a valid point. You do talk about men, but a lot. I'm not even disputing her. I think she might be right. All right.

Well, thank you, Kelly. Did you hear anything this morning? Not this morning. So I was kind of rooting for you this morning. But, you know, y'all not off the air for another 45 minutes. You must have just got in the car. You didn't hear when I told Envy that just because a man tells you to get on your knees like you used to, that might not be a reference? I did hear that.

Okay. That was kind of mild compared to how you used to be. That is right. Did you hear how he told Envy he was going to fill in his face? I didn't say that. No. He did say that. That didn't happen, ma'am. But thank you, Kelly.

Hey, Jason. Good morning, Jason. Hey, what's going on, Evie, Angelina, look at you, Charlamagne. How y'all doing? Hi, Jason. What the hell you just said? Who you want to slander?

Charlamagne. I think he a closet homo. Everything y'all talk about, it comes back to some closet homosexual stuff. What's up with that, Charlamagne? Like what? Give me an example. What's in my closet?

Give me an example. You tell me just like this morning. I was talking about the rest of Westbrook. You talking about what, maybe he was gay and he told him to get on his knees. Yeah, it had nothing to do with anything. What are you talking about? Right. This is because I don't understand

why people just jump to the conclusion that that meant slavery just because a man tells another man get on your knees like you used to. Well, that's the conclusion

Russell Westbrook jumped to. But why'd you go to the homicide? Homicide is murder, sir. It's homicide. Oh. Thank you, sir. Oh, my God.

Thank you, sir. Robert. Hi. Hey, Robert. Oh, my God. Thank you, sir. Robert. Hi. Hey, Robert. How you doing? I'm good. How you doing? I'm good.

Who you want to slander? DJ, I got a slander today, man. Why you want to slander me, brother? Man, I recently started following you on Instagram, man. All your posts, that is a different call with the same hoodie on every time, man. He got it on now. What hoodie is it? What does it say?

Tell them where you can buy it. Yeah, but you can go to bodyofgod.com and you can get yours. You know, my dad said that to save. Do you own any other clothes? You wear that same hoodie all the time. It's a uniform. Why do they think it's the same hoodie? It's different colors. Exactly. It might be the same. It smells the same. No, it's not. Juan. What's going on? What's going on?

Juan, what's up, my amigo? Hola. Hey, what's up, my Dominican brother? No, you're talking to Envy. I ain't Dominican. I'm 97% West African, sir. No, I'm talking about Envy. I ain't Dominican. I'm 97% West African, sir. No, I'm talking about DJ Envy. He knows his Spanish first off first. See, Papi.

I got love for you, man. You keep it funky all the time, and that's a good thing. Well, thank you, sir. But this is slander to Breakfast Club, so we can't. I'm about to slander y'all, man. I'm slander at you because you're not embracing his waffle, man. He's not embracing that waffle. He does embrace it. He eats them all the time.

I don't know. He don't hold it down, though, man. He be letting Charlotte Madbuckle with that, man. I'm not Dominican, man. I'm black. You soft as pancakes, Envy. Why you don't embrace your Dominican side, man? All right, Envy. Why you don't embrace your Dominican side, man? All right, Papi.

Como estas? I'll be at Solomon's every morning. I'm like, why you ain't embracing it, man? Just embrace it. No worries. You know you got that sauce on you. It's almost springtime. He'll be out here with the white jeans.

He'll be full-blown Dominican by summer. Como estas? All right, peace, Papi. What? Hasta luego. Why you calling him Papi? I don't know. D!

Yo. Why you calling me Papi? I didn't call you Papi. Why you calling him him Poppy? I don't know. D! Yo. Why do you call me Poppy? I didn't call you Poppy. Why do you call him Poppy? It wasn't for you. He definitely called you Poppy, D. This is a slander, man, because I think you're really gay, man. I really think you're gay.

Wait. Because you always... What is up with y'all? You're always so sensitive, bro. Why are you so gay? Wait, now, hold on. You're so gay. What does gay have to do with being sensitive?

Yeah, what's wrong with being sensitive? And you don't even like boys. There ain't nothing wrong with being gay, but damn, bro. You always got to be so sensitive about it. Why are you so goddamn sensitive? Charlamagne, bro. Charlamagne, bro. I love you, bro.

But you look like a worn out wallet, bro. A worn out wallet? Yes. I'm gay, but he's not. He's not looking like a worn out wallet. Fix everything about your face, bro.

Ended a little weak, but it, okay? All right? I liked it. I liked it. I liked your slander this morning. It started off strong. I don't mind laughing like a four-year-old.

Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.

It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader

of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my God.

You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.

I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the balance. We say special guest a lot, but sometimes you got to put a little more sauce on it for certain people, okay? There's a whole legend right here named Miss Stephanie Mills. Yes, welcome. Thank you. I am so excited because I watch you guys all the time and listen and everything. I'm excited. You told me that. I saw you at the Tyler Perry Grand Opening.

Wasn't it wonderful? Oh, that was amazing. It was wonderful. He celebrates us. And I was like, Stephanie Mills listens to The Breakfast Club? Yes. Yeah. I do. You're quite handsome. Oh, thank you. Woohoo! You just made his day. Let me just tell you what happened. She can sing, but she can't sing.

I said that at the Tyler Perry thing when I left. I said, he's quite handsome. Thank you. Like you said, she can sing, but she might not be able to sing. Because we was just having a conversation about the term bi-ugly. Because you know how women will say to you, bi-ugly. I've never heard anybody just say that. Nobody said that to me. It's like bi-Felicia.

Yeah, it's like bi-Felicia, bi-ugly. But they say it to him all the time. The morning blackie. The morning blackie. Yeah, I mean, sometimes my friends just say, good morning blackie. Yeah, good morning blackie. i mean sometimes my friends say good morning blackie yeah good morning blackie how you doing i ain't never got that one yeah i thought you wouldn't be so how did you get into the music industry that's right let's start from the beginning let's start from the beginning i was like seven years old and singing you know listening to the radio

and singing and my sisters uh used to always you know like put me in little talent shows and things like that and then i auditioned i went to the apollo and i won three weeks in a row and then i auditioned for a play called maggie flynn that ran on broadway about nine months and that's and from there then i had a record out call i knew it was love and the producer ken harper heard that record and asked me to come down and audition for the Wiz. And because I had auditioned for a lot of different things and so much rejection, I didn't want to do it. My mother made me go. Thank God.

Before we get to the Wiz, how did you get the record deal? Singing. Okay. They heard me sing at the Apollo and then I had the Broadway show. And then Paramount Records in the microphone. I got you. What kind of deal was it like? Did you have business savvy or your parents?

I didn't have business savvy, but my parents and my family managed me for a very, very long time. So I didn't have business savvy at that time. So basically you got taken advantage of early on, I'm sure. I got based. Oh, yes. You didn't make no money. No, yes. No, no, yes. You didn't make no money. No, yes. No, no, yes.

Yes. Well, you still get taken advantage of even when you're successful because they employ their friends all around you. So you have to be careful. How old were you when you played Dorothy in the woods? 17. 17. I was 17 years old.

How was that like? Because that was your debut, if I'm not mistaken, right? That was the big thing, yes. It was wonderful. The cast, Felicia Rashad was in it. She was a munchkin and she played. She was the understudy for Glenda. I've stayed in it five years.

Now, why didn't they use you for the movie, though? Because Diana, you know, she was a bigger star than me. They hardly ever used the Broadway person for the movie. I don't know why. But I was signed to Motown briefly. And, but Diana wanted it. She came to the show quite often. To study you?

So I knew, yeah. When you put out that single, Something in the Way, right? Yes. That was written by Angela Winbush. Really? Wow. Yes. And produced.

Really? Wow. Yes. Who knew that? And all the DJs. Were you aware of all the DJs doing their own mixes and their own blends and everything? No, but did you see the one with Kid Capri? And he told me I was not aware of that.

Not at all? Not at all, no. Wow. You never been in a party and heard nobody playing it? I didn't party. I didn't go to clubs or anything like that. And now that I'm old, I'm like, I want to party and get out there. But I didn't hang out

that much. I was always working. Do you feel like you missed your childhood in a way? No, I think I made up for it in my 40s. What'd you do in your 40s? Goodness gracious. I became a little frisky in my 40s. A little frisky? What do you call frisky?

What is frisky? I had a little fun. I was a cougar in my 40s. Oh, so you used to mess with younger men? Yes. Okay. She said yes straight up. Yes. Yes, I did.

Did they know? Did they even know you was 40-something? Yeah. Because you don't look it. I always was. I'm always honest. I don't like people that say they're not. Well, I don't respect people that don't own up to their own age.

You've earned those years. That's right. Were those the guys that were attracted to you, too? Like the younger guys were always trying to talk to you? Younger guys were always attracted to me. They thought I was younger. Right. And I was like, I'll be younger if you want to, baby. Were you a sugar mama, too?

Because you had money. Yes. And that's what I got turned off. I don't want to be a sugar mama. You know, I was a sugar mama. They didn't ask, did they? No, but I'm a giver. I'm a giver. I'm a giver by the way mama. You know, I was a sugar mama. They didn't ask, did they? No, but I'm a giver.

You're like, I'm flying first class. He got to fly first class. Yes, yes. What's the most you ever gave a young man, Ms. Mills? A car. What kind? What kind of car? A BMW and a Mercedes. Damn. One guy got two cars?

No, one guy got a BMW and one guy got a Mercedes. Was that hush money? Why'd you do that for him? No, one guy got a BMW and one guy got a Mercedes. Was that hush money? Why'd you do that for him? No, the one I was... I gotta say this. My ex-husband, Michael Saunders, was the program director for this station. Yeah.

When I walked in here this morning, I was like, this is a 105. This is where he used to work. Yeah. He got the Mercedes. So these rooms can tell some stories about you and Michael. No, we were divorced by then.

Okay, okay. Well, we were still cool. Was it a lease or you outright purchased the car? Purchased. That's nice. I don't mind it. Like maybe a lease and then you make the payments. No, she bought it.

She bought the baller. What's the nicest thing anybody ever got you? People don't give me presents. I've never had a man to shower me with presents. I've always bought my own presents. Not even Michael Jackson? You didn't used to date Michael Jackson? I used to date Michael Jackson, but we were young.

How long did y'all used to date? We dated while he was... Black, you was going to say? That's fine. That's the truth. Yeah, we dated while we were young. What was his mindset back then? He was the most gentle, most kind person.

He never said a bad word about anybody. I've never seen him upset. Never. And he's not a pedophile. When did he start changing? Like when you started seeing him lightening his skin and doing stuff with his skin? I think when he became bigger. In the entertainment world, they always tell you, because I was always, I was too black,

too this, too that. So they want you to cross over. So they tell you, you have to, you know, not sing so soulful. So I think when he crossed over to pop, that's when he began to change. When he got all that success. And I believe he had the wrong type of people around him. When did y'all break up? Why did y'all break up?

Why did y'all stop dating? Because I wasn't, I didn't want to go to certain people's houses for dinner. I didn't want to do that. The white people you started hanging around. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't want to do that. So why do you think he got caught up in that whole pedophile scandal?

Because Michael liked being around children because they were innocent. Even my brother Andre used to hang around Michael. And they weren't, they didn't want anything from him. They didn't have an agenda. And I think that's why he liked being around children. They just liked to play and have fun. They didn't have an agenda, but most people around him had an agenda. They wanted something. Do you think

it was strange, any of his behavior, like staying over with the kids or anything like that? I didn't think it was strange. No. The public and I think people that are around him made it strange and because he liked that they made the story but he's not that. Did you guys stay in touch

even after all of that? We did. When he did the bad video he called me and he wanted my best friend who was Greg Burge to choreograph the bad video and I got in touch

and they got in touch with each other and then I went to visit the set. That was the first time I ever saw him when he had totally changed. What did you think? I whispered something. I whispered something in his ear.

What did you say, Miss Miller? I'm not going to tell you. Was he involved in the sickness, though? I used to call him a n***a all the time. And he used to laugh. I heard he used to use the word. I heard Michael was a n***a. He was a n***a. He was a n***a

and he was not soft. What about him in competition with Prince? I never heard him say anything about Prince. Okay. What was your relationship like with Teddy Pinnister? Oh, I love TP. I loved and I could say whatever I want. There used to be a time with Teddy,

you know, he had food, hot food and nobody could eat until Teddy. And I'd be like, well, hey, you know, he had food, hot food, and nobody could eat until Teddy. And I'd be like, well, hey, you know, I'm hungry. I'm going to eat. And I would eat. I could do almost anything with Teddy, and it was okay. I watched his documentary. I thought it was amazing because I didn't know all those things about him.

And I thought it was great how he taped himself. So they had all of these, like, audio autobiographies from him that they could include in it. Right. Were there things that you learned about him that you didn't know? Did you watch it? No, I knew a lot about Teddy, and I was supposed to do that documentary, but I chose not to.

Why did you choose not to? Because you know too much? You're a fun. No, I just didn't like the way they were putting it together. Okay. And just for financial reasons, I didn't think that they were giving the people what they needed and i thought other people were making money over

somebody that they didn't even know y'all did two songs right feel the fire feel the fire and two hearts which one was your favorite both of them i loved singing with teddy he was just a straight up dude do you remember those recording sessions yes what was it like back then? A party in the studio or all business? Teddy was a lot. He was a lot. He was the biggest star at that time. So I would have to say, come on, let's do this song and get it over with. Has Lee Daniels reached out to you about the Teddy Pendergrass biopic?

No. Charlie Mack was just telling me about it. But I know that Tyrese is supposed to do it. Do you remember? Why'd you make that face? Why'd you look like that? You don't think Tyrese can pull it off? She's very uncensored, so let's hear it.

I love Stephanie Mills. Go ahead. Why? Tell us the truth. You have earned the right to speak freely. I know, but I was told not to name names. So what, what, what? No, I don't give a ****.

Yeah, she don't give a ****. But I think Tyrese will do a good job, you know? But? I don't like that he goes around saying he was Teddy's son, because I never saw him around Teddy at all. Maybe he means like in a spiritual sense. Maybe. Yeah, like that's like a father.

Maybe. But I think he'll do a good job. I hope, and I told Charlie Mack, I said, I hope y'all be good and stay true to who he was and not put a whole bunch of mess in it. Why do they do that? When it comes to Teddy Pendergrass or Michael Jackson, any of the great black stars, they always got to end their lives with some mess. But they don't talk about Elvis Presley marrying her at 16 or 15.

Yeah, at 14. They tolerate us in this business. They don't celebrate us. Well, someone needs to make that documentary about Elvis. Everyone talks about it, and they don't talk about it, they don't talk about this Well, someone needs to make that documentary about Elvis. Everyone talks about it and they don't talk about it, they don't talk about this, but someone needs to. Absolutely. There's so many other, you know, white artists that have done the same thing

but they don't come after them. It's just like Kaepernick, you know. He took a knee for the brutality of policemen and no one remembers that. So they're making him this villain and he's not. He just stood up for justice because police brutality is real. Racism is

real. I just experienced racism at the Gwadi Airport yesterday coming in. We had gotten the cart. You know how you get the cart? The lady that does my hair, Karina, and she had her hand on it so she asked the guy, can you help us? And she was like pulling the cart and the guy just totally ignored us.

And then this white woman came and put her bag on the cart and he helped her. And I told him, I said, you're ignoring us. Was he black? He was something else. He was Spanish or something else. Because I call a black person out quick for that. Oh, yeah. But we're the worst.

You know, we are the worst against each other. I mean, we're so racist against each other. We don't support each other the way we should. And we shouldn't. Then we always want to cry. Right. I hate that. You know, and all this Botox and...

Well, let's talk about this book right here that you have here. Now, your son has a book. Yes! And your son has special needs. Yes, my son. Come here for a hot ride. Say hello. Say good morning.

You got to be careful with our stuff in here, too. Say good morning. Good morning. Now, first of all, how is it raising a son with special needs? I know because you travel. I know it's a lot. I had him when I was 45. Can we give him a chair, please?

And I was really wanting to have a child. I didn't want that time to pass me by. So I was told at three months that my son was going to be a special needs. But I was like, I don't care if he has one eye or whatever. This is my baby. We're going to rock this world together. I want to talk about this book that he wrote.

Talk about this book a little bit. What's the name of your book, baby? Pranks. And what's the name of it? The Adventures of a Rod Gag. Okay. Tell us about the book. What is the book about? What is it about? Pranks.

Pranks. He likes to do pranks, but he wanted to show that you could do pranks and be safe. Do you do pranks on your mom? He's pretty, yeah. Who's your favorite artist? Tupac. Hey. Can he do a little bit of Tupac?

Sure. For sure. Come with me and marry one quickie. What do you have for now? Do you want to ride or die? Hey. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. I love it.

Did you like the Tupac movie? Did you like the All Eyes on Me movie? Yeah. How'd he get into Tupac? You had him listening to Tupac? His mother. Word. Tupac.

He from Brooklyn, does he not even... I could have been Tupac's girlfriend. Okay. He Tupac, yeah. You from Brooklyn, does he know you? I could have been Tupac's girlfriend. Okay. He tried to holler at you before? No.

No, but I could have been his girlfriend. You met him? I like that kind of guy. Uh-oh. Oh, you like them thugs, huh, Miss Mel? You still like that?

You like that now, too? Oh, I do. I like, yes, I like thugs. Yeah. Educated ones, though. Educated thugs. Small ones. Maybe former thugs, yeah? Oh, I do. I like, yes, I like thugs. Yeah. Educated ones, though. Educated ones. Small ones. Maybe former thugs.

Yes. Yes. Thank you. How has raising a special needs son made you stronger? It's given me patience and there's a love. You know, with any child, you love them, but he just, I feel like he's my gift. God gave me a gift. He gave me the perfect child for me.

Because Farad, when he was small, he didn't cry. I'd get up in the morning, have to do TV, whatever. He's always traveled with me. And he's an A student. He's on the computer now, academy. He's homeschooled. I mainstreamed him from kindergarten to fifth grade. And then I didn't want him to go to middle school.

How was that? Because I know kids can be so mean and so nasty. Well, I had a teacher go to school with him. And I go up to school every night. And if somebody messed with my child, they're going to have to deal with me. How did the book come about at all? Was he like, I want to... His teacher, when he would finish his work, would let him write.

So one day she came to me. She said, your son writes. He writes stories and books. We should put to me, she said, your son writes, he writes stories and books and we should put it together. I said, really? So she gave me some papers that he had written. And I was like, this is really good. And that's how it came, came about. You said you had him when you was 45 is because when you were younger, they would tell you, Oh, focus on your career, focus on the business. No, I have been married a couple of times and I had tried to have children and I had problems getting pregnant. So at 45

I was determined that I was going to get pregnant and have a child. I always wonder how come when you have a Barry Gordy who was so established and put so many black artists on, why wasn't it more black executives at the helms of these record labels instead of all of these culturally clueless white people?

That's my problem. I don't understand because they don't understand us. So how can you tell? Like, I used to have at MCA, you know, Gladys Knight, myself, Mary J. Blige, she came in at the end, and all of us was on the label at that time. And we all would come out, you know, and we all got together. We would tour together, and it was peaceful. But I had one executive there, and he wasn't white.

He was black. That totally worked against me. Wow. Trying to appease the white people. Yes. Okay. But what I don't understand is they see you the way they are. White people see you the way they are, the way you are.

There's nothing that you can do that's going to make them like you more. It's just like what Tyler Perry said. Hollywood totally ignores him and he built this fabulous place. And it was only us there. A sprinkle of them. It was beautiful. Did you ever give Mary advice?

I'm going to say this. I think entertainers of today don't look at me as able to give them advice. Why do you think that? Because they would never take, first of all, their handlers will keep you away from them because I would honestly tell them the truth. I did the Wiz Live with Mary.

I did, you know, with Mary and Queen Latifah and Ne-Yo and all of them. I've been around. That was a couple of years ago, right? Yeah, a couple of years ago. And you tried to talk to her and she wasn't receptive? No, I didn't try to talk to her. I would never approach, no. But they've never come up to me and asked me anything.

Maybe they feel intimidated. I don't think so. Yes! Oh, no. Why would you feel intimidated? Because people look up to you. I don't think so. I don't think so.

I don't think so, Charlamagne. And I'm touching you, but I'm just a touchy person. I don't mind. I mean, you met my wife, but I don't know. Yes, your wife is beautiful, too. Thank you very much. I'm so glad shey person. I don't mind. I mean, you met my wife, but I, you know. Yes, your wife is beautiful, too. Thank you very much. I'm so glad she's dark. Black, that's right.

Black. Yes. Yes. I'm so glad. When it comes to the music, right, when you do music, did you used to think about making songs that would be on the radio, that would be hit songs, or just songs that you were like, this is just a dope song?

When I was younger, they used to make those decisions for me, but then as I got older, I didn't care. I didn't care about being politically correct. I didn't care about, oh, you have to wear this, you have to be this. I didn't care about any of that. Are you still doing music now? No.

It's different. I can't just come out with a song and play it. And then there's all this payola. I don't want to pay $100,000 to get my record played. Damn, Envy, that's how much I don't want to play. Yeah. I don't want to pay. I don't want to pay. I don't want to pay. I don't want to play

the games that they want you to play now. I just don't. You want to go to the radio, right? You don't even need radio now. You don't. But I haven't felt like recording. I do things when I feel like it. Right. What would be your dream tour right now?

You and who? Like on tour together? Oh, me? Well, I'm doing a show with Chaka, but I would love to do a female thing. Oh my God, I just met Chaka Khan. That was amazing. Oh, I love. And when Chaka, when I see Chaka, I say, hey, bitch.

And she says, hey, ho. That's how we are. I love that. That's what, that's how I greet her. I'm like, hey, bitch. She's like,, hey ho. That's how we are. I love that. That's how I greet her. I'm like, hey bitch. She's like, hey ho. And then she'll say, oh, you're so cute. And I'll say, oh, you look so good.

But I would love to do a tour with Shaka, Anita, and myself, or Gladys. And I would just love, because the country people do it all the time. That would be an amazing tour. They do it all the time. Why can't we? I feel like a lot of these young women

look up to you, but you don't realize that. I think that they would love to connect with you. I connect with Monica. I love Monica. I don't know why Monica was on my spirit. Really? I love Monica. Because you're all the same type of energy. Yes, we are.

Monica is a real n***a.a Right she's a real n***a And I am too You know what I'm saying I'm just saying that I would Like if I come up and I say F*** you I'll f*** you Can I say that Yes

It's too late now But Pops Excuse me Pops I'm sorry Pops But you know And we thought you just said I'll f*** you No no no

I said No no I was like No no no No I was like, no, no, no. No, I was like, I'll f*** you up. Like, that's what I said. I don't feel like the real stories of y'all are being told. Like the Motown era, Teddy, Michael. No, they're not.

They're not. Because there's white people telling them. There's white people telling them and you can't. It's just like Betty Boop was a black woman and she's colored as a white woman it's you know it's like they take out and run with it so how do we get those real stories told like do you write books like what do you do you have to work with the work with the people that are that are doing the stories like Tyler would tell a real story would you ever write a book not a book about myself I'd probably write a book on how to raise a baby. But that's part of it. Yeah, but I wouldn't write a book.

Things that I did and experienced going with me to my grave. We need to hear these stories about like just even marriage and being in such a high profile business, being on the road. I don't think I'm good at marriage. I don't think I'm good at marriage. I've been married three times.

But why do you say you're not good at it? Well, I'm crazy. Why do you think you're crazy? Why do you say you're not good at it? Well, I'm crazy as, you know, I mean. Why do you think you're crazy? Why do you think you're crazy, Miss Mills? Well, you know, I suffer with depression. That's not crazy. I got depression.

And I just think a man doesn't know how to handle me. I think now I probably would be a better partner because I'm really at peace with myself and I know myself. But back then, I wasn't. Well, back then people, there was such a stigma around mental health. We didn't even talk about no mental health in the black community. I have suffered with it since I was 35, but didn't know what it was until I started going to see my psychiatrist and things like that. So how do you expect a man to know? He just think you're tripping.

I know. You just don't like being married because you like to be out here popping that shit. No, I don't. I don't. just don't like being married because you like to be out here popping that shit. No, I don't. I don't. I don't. If you were ever going to tell your story, where would your story start? In Brooklyn. Growing up.

My heroes are my mother and my father. My mother was no joke. She took no prisoners. And my father was just a gentle giant. But it would start there. And growing up and my family. Because it wasn't always easy for me. you know, being in the business and being young and having sisters and jealousy and things like that.

So I went through a lot. My life has not been easy. And that's why you got to tell your story because if you're doing a white person will. A white person better not tell my story. But what they doing? You saw Leaving Neverland. What do you think of Leaving Neverland? I don't like anything that they did on Michael.

I think they make fun of us. Like, I never wanted to sit at their table. I wanted to do something with the artist. I'm not going to say their name, so don't ask me, Charlamagne. And they were like, well, your audience is too black. I'm on television, so my audience is pop. A black person? A black person.

A black woman. And she's a singer. And I was like, well, we could go out and do... No, your audience is still black. But you know what?

I'm good on my audience being too black. I don't care. They weren't my age. And I bet you right now they're one of the people that act so black, so pro-black.

No. They don't? No. This pop woman was on TV? You said she was a sitcom? What was it? She was on TV, a said she was a sitcom? What was it? She was on TV, a white show. Where's she from?

New York? Atlanta? Yeah, I'm really trying to figure this out. A singer on a white show. She's a Broadway star. She's done a lot. But I'm not going to tell you, so don't. Broadway singer.

God damn it, let's get to Googling. Let me see. Broadway star. You are funny. I'm going to put Broadway star on, black Broadway star on white TV show. That's what I'm going to type out. Hold on. TV shows. That's what I'm going to type out. Hold on. Hold on.

Let me see what comes up. You're not going to figure it out. I like your necklace. What's the range? Is it her? I think I'm younger. I think I'm older. Yeah.

I have no idea who you're talking about. But it's okay. It's cool. Was it recently? No, it was a while ago. She alive or dead? She's still alive. You ever had to put hands on anybody?

How many people? That's the question. I'll fight. I'll fight. Even today I will. She said even today I will. What was the last fight you got into? What was the last fight I got into? I don't know. I haven't fought in a long time. You used to fight other women when you were married? Oh into, I don't know. I haven't fought in a long time. You used to fight other women, like

when you were married? Oh, no. I don't marry. I don't believe that women should fight other women about men. What if you caught her in your bed, in your house? Then I'm kicking that ass. That's what I'm saying. Right. Yeah. Have you ever cheated? She's talking to you. I don't know.

I was born a donkey. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's the donkey of the day. Yes, donkey of the day. Go to a California man named Nathaniel Gene Robertson. Nathaniel was arrested earlier this month on suspicion of killing his wife. That's it. That's the donkey. Nathaniel is getting Donkey of the Day because he killed his wife for no reason at all. You can understand why he's getting Donkey of the Day for that, right?

Yes, Nathaniel admitted in interviews with police investigators that he hit his wife with a concrete block. He said he was showing no mercy and claimed the alignments were not in place to protect her. Now, he killed his wife. So that's donkey of the day worthy because donkey of the day is all about giving people the credit they deserve for being stupid. And killing your wife is indeed stupid. But it's not just the fact Nathaniel killed his wife. It's the reason why he killed his wife. What got into Nathaniel?

What infected his spirit and made him commit such a heinous act? Well, let's go to KGET NBC 17 for the report, please. A husband accused of murdering his wife with a concrete block. Here now with details of the man who's blaming mayonnaise as part of the problem. Well, according to police reports, Nathaniel Robertson admitted during an interview with sheriff's detectives to beating Lydia Robertson with a concrete block. Robertson is quoted in the report stating he did it to, quote, give her compassion and mercy as the alignments were not in place to protect her, end quote.

Court documents state Robertson said he had been infected by mayonnaise quote they put him in they in this case refers to a group of brutal powerful people robertson said he couldn't identify according to the report asked if he used drugs robertson said he used quote ice to help him breathe. Robertson, 46, has pleaded not guilty to a charge of first-degree murder in Lydia Robertson's death. He's being held on $1 million bail. Nathaniel

is quoted as saying he killed his wife because he was infected by mayonnaise. Too much goddamn mayonnaise! Can we hear what this murderer says he was infected by again? Robertson said he had been infected by mayonnaise. Quote, they put him in. I can't believe this assassin, this butcher, this slayer, this thug, this criminal,

this homicidal mayonnaise maniac blamed mayonnaise on killing his wife. Homicidal, man. Whatever. All right. Let me hear what he says again. Let me hear what he says causing him to kill his wife again. Please. Robertson said he had been infected by mayonnaise.

Quote, they put him in. I know you wouldn't believe it if you didn't hear it for yourself. For all you people who call up here to iHeart headquarters in New York City and complain about me, complain about me and call me racist and call me a bigot, all because I don't like mayonnaise. What do you have to say now?

This, this right here is indeed the devil. Too much goddamn mayonnaise. It's a condiment of Satan. Mayonnaise is disgusting. Too much of it ruins everything. You just need a little, just a little to make something good. But too much of it makes everything bad. Too much mayonnaise in tuna, yuck. Too much mayonnaise in potato salad, yuck. This is a story that literally has too much

goddamn mayonnaise. You can't argue with me anymore about the dangers of mayonnaise in our society because Nathaniel Gene Robertson shuts down all debates, okay? Nathaniel is quoted as saying his wife had been his best friend. He didn't want to hit her a bunch of times. He said, I wanted to end it. I didn't want her suffering. But he couldn't control himself because of mayonnaise. Wow. There's nothing left to do here. There's nothing left to do here but play a game of Guess What Race It Is.

Now, let me give you your clues, guys and girls. Uh-uh-uh. Nathaniel Gene Robertson, that's his name. He's from California. He beat his wife to death with a cinder block and says mayonnaise made him do it. Angela Yee, guess what race it is? I'm going to have to say Caucasian. DJ Envy. Three clues.

Nathaniel Gene Robertson from California beat his wife to death with a cinder block and says mayonnaise made him do it. Guess what race it is. White. You both are correct. He is indeed Caucasian. Can I call this guy a mayonnaise-flavored mammal without y'all calling the front desk here at iHeart complaining? Can I call this man a human jar of Hellman's mayonnaise without being called a racist bigot who hates white people? I don't hate white people.

I hate mayonnaise. And after seeing the effects mayonnaise can have on a person, which is something I already knew, you should hate mayonnaise too. Please let Chelsea Handler give Nathaniel Gene Robertson the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. That is way too much damn mayonnaise. Too much goddamn mayonnaise. Too much goddamn mayonnaise. One day y'all gonna listen to your good old Uncle Charlo.

All right. I know what I'm talking about. All right, Charlamagne, thank you for that donkey of the day. Yes, sir. All right, we got more coming up next with The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? I'm saying anonymous. All right.

What's your question for Yee, anonymous? Yes, we can. All right. So I have a dilemma. When my boyfriend and I first started dating, we were going to do it in the car, and he pulled his pants down. There was a foul order.

He didn't fart. dude in the car, and he pulled his pants down after the foul order. He didn't fart. He just took a dump and didn't wipe his butt. Hey! Now we live together, and whenever we're going to do it, I always am hesitant because he doesn't

wipe his butt, so he always has a foul order, and he always has dookie face on his boxers. Ah, those skid marks. That's what they call them. Yes, skid marks. So how do you tell your man, like, babe, can you please wipe that? Is he a grown man or a baby wearing a diaper?

That is disgusting. First of all. Don't judge that man. I'm going to tell you. Oh, is this envy we're talking about here? You mean is this gear? Don't judge that man. No, no, no.

All right, so first of all, do y'all have wet wipes in the bathrooms in the house? I think I need to keep them there, but that doesn't mean I use them. You got to help him out, man, because first of all, there's no way he don't smell the doo-doo coming out his butt when he pulls his pants down, number one. Number two, you might have to tell him you got to get up in there when you wipe yourself and wipe yourself good. And you might have to buy him some wet wipes to carry with him when he goes places and tell him to use those when he uses the bathroom because this is not something that you can dance around. You have to be direct

about this hygiene. She's right. But I'm not his mama though. Embarrassed at one time. You're gonna have to tell him. Because you know what? If you don't say something, you're gonna just end up having to smell doo-doo every time you have sex. Yeah, I can't do that. So just tell him. Because you know what? If you don't say something, you're going to just end up having to smell doo-doo every time you have sex. Yeah, I can't do that. So just tell him.

Be like, babe, look at your underwear. Do you see this? You're not wiping yourself well. Are you getting up in the hole? So you have doo-doo stains on your sheets too, huh? No, no. I would never. You do have to.

If it's in his underwear, it's in the sheets. But you got to point it out because if you don't say anything, then are you just having sex and enduring the smell? Girl, I don't go down there. I won't go down on him a lot because of that. I'm always afraid. I don't want to get juice in my mouth. Why is it so hard to tell a man his ass thing?

I don't know, but you could get... Can't you get E. coli or something? I mean, if you're eating ass. I can't wait until he asks you to eat his ass. I don't want to... Oh, his ass. I don't want to. Oh, hell no. I don't want to hurt his ego. That's it.

Well, girl, I don't want you to get some type of disease either, a bacteria infection. But this is for his own good. First of all, if you're doing laundry sometimes, you don't want to have to touch that and clean that, right? Right. And this is for his own benefit. This is to help him out in his life. You gotta show him, look, baby, these are wet wipes. Now,

me and you are having this conversation. Don't be embarrassed because we could talk about anything. And trust me, if you're having sex with this man, I'm protected. You should be able to tell him his ass stinks and he's not wiping himself. Goodness gracious. If you can do that and you can lay up with him and do all of that, then you should be able to communicate with him and tell him, babe, you need

to clean your butt. It's going to be so funny when you tell him his butt stinks and he was like, man, I was thinking the same thing about your poom poom. And guess what she would do? Wipe her poom poom with a wet wipe. You ate crap. You said you ate crap. Who ate crap? You're the one eating

crap. Don't you dare say I ate crap. Thank you, mama. And just listen. This is a time when you got to be direct and be like, look, you know, I don't know if you're just not wiping yourself right, but there's these stains in your underwear and sometimes I can smell it. So I just want to say you got to wipe yourself better. Here's some wet wipes every time you go to the bathroom. And you shouldn't even have sex with him until after he showers. But if he's not cleaning his butthole in the shower either and then getting out.

Why do you say butthole like that? I don't know what I'm supposed to say on the radio. Just say his butt. Just cleaning his butt. Cleaning his shower is a requirement. I will say, I've been with my wife 21 years

and I do remember a time about 14, 15 years ago where she went down and she was like, hey man, you need to go take a shower or something. Hey man.

You know. And you appreciated it. Yeah. I went in there. Maybe I didn't wipe properly. I don't know what it was. But she told me. It hurt my feelings.

I just went and took a shower. Is this a common issue between men? Like, I don't understand. I don't think it was a common issue. It's happened to me before. Once or twice. Three times. Four times.

Five times. It happened to me before. Yeah. But look, so that's why you got to point it out. One day y'all will laugh about it. And hopefully that day that y'all are laughing his butt will be clean But you got to embarrass and pick up the underwear be like what's this and then let him see the doodle stains He'll get embarrassed and never do it again

I like that you know me and check your sheets. I bet you you got doodle stains on your sheets Yeah, I bet you and he knows trust me Tap me once or twice put those skid marks in his face Thank you mama, how do you like it? Shut up. Tap to me once or twice. Put those skid marks in his face. See, you go too far. Thank you, mama. How do you like it? Thank you. That's actually some young boy stuff, though.

Because, you know, that's one of the reasons after I do a number two, I do go take a shower. Except if you're at work. Yeah, if I'm at work. But then it's not like I'm going home and me and my wife going to get right to it. I don't want to go home smelling like the day. You should never poo and then have sex right after. Hell no. If you can take a shower. We don't want your muddy butt up here either.

You better wipe better, bro. All right. Ask Yee. 805-85-1051. If you need relationship advice, hit Yee now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Get some real advice with Angela Yee.

It's Ask Yee. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this?vy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hey, man. Hey, man.

What's up, man? What's your question for you, bro? So this is my situation. I was going to marry, right? Me and my wife been married now about a year. So we got in a situation where the relationship got physical. We had a physical altercation in our relationship. And basically, her family won't forgive me for that.

Being her, we had our issues. You know what we went through. We know why things happen and they happen, and we still want to work on it. But her family really doesn't approve of it because of me putting my hands on her. Well, of course not. Her family...

Yeah. I'm trying to figure out how could we possibly work around it? Well, her family is very protective of her, so of course they should feel that way. And so you shouldn't look at that as something detrimental. Of course they should feel like you put your hands on

our family member, on a woman, and they should definitely side-eye you for that. So first you have to understand they're very valid in their reason for looking at you in the way that they are. And that's a punishment that you have to take. And I totally understand that. You know what I'm saying? They got physical.

But I want you to understand this. For over the years, right, me and her both been back and forth. We both have put our hands on each other. Right. And it's kind of like, I know it ain't right for nobody to do it. But it's like, if I were to do something wrong, you know what I'm saying, and she go through my phone, and she see something on my phone, she don't be through my phone, and she attack me because of things that she seen in my phone when she put her hands on me plenty of times. So this time it was the other way around. I seen something in her phone, so I put my hands on her because of that. You know what I'm saying? So it really got out of hand only because she had bruises and scars

and the situation in her mind. So that really, really pushed it, you know? Yeah, and you bruised and scarred your woman up, and that should make you feel terrible. And I want to say a couple of things. First of all, it's never right for a woman to put her hands on a man either, and I tell people that all the time. Women shouldn't be putting their hands, nobody should be putting their hands

on each other. I think that as you said, what happened was worse because you ended up really physically harming her and you could have ended up in jail for that and things could have gotten even worse. You could have permanently damaged her. You could have, you know

and one thing my boyfriend would tell me is that anytime, and his mom has always told him this, if you feel like you have to put your hands on a woman, you need to walk away. That's not the right woman for you. But you said this is the one time that it happened. She wants to forgive you for it, and I can't tell a woman what to do.

But I suggest that you guys have got to get real help. And that means that you guys have got to get real help. And that means that y'all have to go to therapy. You have to figure out why you reacted the way you reacted. She has to figure out how to keep her hands to herself as well. But there really is never an excuse for you to basically beat your woman up and that's what you did.

Yeah, it really ain't new. Can I tell you what happened though or why I did it? You went through her phone and saw something. Yeah, well, basically when I saw it, let I tell you what happened though? Or why I did it? You went through her phone and saw something. Yeah, well, basically, when I saw it, let me tell you what I saw though. I went through her phone, right? And I saw that she was actually

having an affair with my son's football coach. Listen, I feel you. And there's, but there's still no matter, it don't matter what you saw, there's no justification. I see, I see.

Yeah, I understand what you're saying. At a time like that, when you see that, you're still trying to justify it. I know, but look, okay, can I call the envy you're listening for, Solomon? Yeah, I'm listening. I don't agree with you, my brother. I'm going to ask you, if you went to your wife's phone

right now, and you see that she was texting and having an affair with somebody that was close to y'all and you had a little nick in your system, your very first reaction, what's going to be your very first reaction? To leave the damn house? To leave the damn house? Yeah, you can't move off emotion in a situation like that. You got to move

off strategy. Number one, because you shouldn't hit a woman. And number two, because you just got too much to lose, brother. That's right. And if I had a nick in my system, I'd probably cry. And I'm concerned. We know. We know, Evie. In the fetal position.

But what I am concerned about is that you are still trying to get people to back you up for your actions. You asked for that, man. And you cannot justify your actions. You cannot put your hands. You can't appeal to the men in the room and think that they're going to be like, you ought to get it too. I can understand why you did that.

There's no explanation. There's no way that you are in the right in this situation. I feel you. You were hurt. But that doesn't mean that you're supposed to physically harm your woman. I will say I can understand why he did it. I don't agree, though. I can understand the emotion and the alcohol, but I don't agree with you.

Yeah, you can't justify it. You can't say, well, this is why I did it. So all good. So you cannot ever do something like that again. And you have to own the fact that you were wrong in your reaction. Now, was she wrong? Dead wrong. You could have left her. You could have said, I'm never going to be with you again. You could have cut

off whatever, you know, support you give her or she gives you, whatever it is, but you physically putting your hands on her is never the solution. Like, I knew I was wrong and I really regret it right now because, like I said, we separated. I didn't move that.

And, you know what I'm saying, I'm away from my kids and family. It's hard now because, like I said, her family had a whole lot of respect for me before you had me, but now they don't respect me at all. Yeah, you bruised her up. You know how crazy that looks? What you need to do is get yourself into some therapy and show her that you're serious about rehabbing yourself and take that time apart to work on you.

I'm doing that. I don't feel like nothing wrong with me. I just had a bad situation that one time. I'm not all greasy. Stop. Listen. There is something wrong. You shouldn't have reacted that way. And you got to acknowledge that.

If you did it once, you'll do it again. So it's all wrong with me because of one mistake. Everybody makes mistakes. I feel like I had to go get turkey and all that. Everybody does make mistakes, but the problem is, first of all, you're using liquor when you're upset, and that's the worst thing to do. You're upset, you're mad, you're

using liquor to take away the pain, and you wind up being abusive. And yes, you have a problem and you need to deal with that problem. You don't want to make sure that happens again. And then the next time, you're saying, yeah, I made two mistakes. You just want to make sure that you clean yourself up. How old are you, sir? He sounds older. Yeah, I made that mistake when I was 17 years old, putting my hands on a woman for the same situation.

But I had low emotional intelligence then. I was immature. I was insecure. I had low self-esteem. My ego was bruised. But at 33 years old, nah, I wouldn't make that mistake. If you're serious, go get some help for yourself and acknowledge that you're wrong because I don't think you really truly grasped it.

Brown, what's your question for you? I'm from Hampton, Virginia. I've been trying to get in touch with y'all for like months and months and months. HU 757-804. Okay. She didn't sound too right. Okay, Sherry, so let's hear your question. Okay, okay.

I'm a very smart, by the way, y'all inspire me a lot. I listen to the radio because I suffer with PTSD, and I love music, and music calms me down. I can do a lot of things with music. I can cook with music. I can dance to music. I can draw to music. I can read to music.

I just love music. So I had a question because I love God, right? And I've been saved since I was three years old. And every relationship I've ever been in, all the guys say that I'm crazy. Everybody in my whole city say I'm crazy in Hampton, Virginia. I've been in 757 since I was nine years old. My mom came here getting away from abusive uh relationship that my father was um doing her my father couldn't get along so she left my father when i was nine months old

and i suffered with not having a father so i failed to like having um relationship with guys looking for father figures and i was going with older guys i never would go with younger guys so now without now that i'm 43 i I started attracting younger guys. Okay. Like Cougar stuff. Cougar stuff. So I went celibate for four and a half years. Because I was trying to figure out why I kept getting in these relationships that was abusive. Okay.

And, I mean, they keep putting me down. And they'll start off saying, like, they love me. Like, right away. Like, a month, two months, they love me. And then they say, I'm creative and stuff. I do hair. Mama, what's your question? What's your question, Mama? I have like 26.

I'm a certified chef. Mama, what's your question? The question is, do a person know a good woman when they see a good woman? And the question is, I'm trying to figure out. Why are you single? Do I keep dating these guys that say they don't believe in God? Because I believe in God. And every time I say something about God, they don't like it.

And I don't understand why they don't like God. I think we should go back to the part where she said people think she crazy. I mean, that's a good place to start. Okay, Sherry. Sherry, honey. Hold on, hold on. Let me talk, Sherry. Sherry.

Sherry. Is this ask you or ask Sherry? Sherry! Sherry just had some things to get off her chest this morning. Man, I got a hundred thousand things. I'm about to go crazy over here thinking that I'm crazy. I know they crazy. They crazy.

Hold on, Sherry. Okay, so Sherry, you keep dating guys who don't believe in God. Don't ask that question. Yeah. They say they believe in him, but they got all these gang signs on them. Gang signs. Okay, so they do believe in God. One has a heart on them, blood and crypts. Sherry.

All these gang signs. Sherry, so it's not that they don't believe in God, it's they don't praise and worship the way that you do. Well, I've been saved since I was three years old, and I've been in the choir. My mom made me go to church every Sunday, even though she stayed out all night and slept with people's husbands and mistress and all that.

I've never had a husband. I've been the best woman that I've ever known and the best mother. My mom just took my son from me, and I'm, like, really, like, fed the fuck up. I've been the best mother I can ever pick up. I've been mother to other people's kids that don't even mother their kids. What the hell is Sherry? Sherry's upset. Sherry's upset.

You know the Bible says... I'm really upset. Sherry, the Bible says... I've been trying to get in touch with God for like ever. Sherry, you know the Bible says a great deal about being quiet, right? Yes. Yeah, holding your tongue,

shutting the hell up sometimes. Leave her alone. Be still and listen. You know what I'm saying? So you can hear God. How you hearing God and you talk so goddamn much? I don't know. I do know. Why you start her? Sherry, everybody.

Listen, man, I knew I matured when I realized every situation doesn't need a reaction. Remember that today. Every situation does not need a reaction. Sometimes you just got to leave people to do the lame shit it is that they do. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. that they do. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag.

This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God. What is that?
