All the greatest changes have happened when a couple of people said, this sucks, let's do something about it. We get paid to serve you, but we're made out of the same things. It's rare to have black male teachers.

Starting point is 00:03:34 Good morning! It's Monday! And today's show is about some of our most awkward interviews, alright? I'm talking about interviews that you could just tell there might have been a little awkwardness going on like when Birdman stopped through You remember that interview? Or how about Sexy Red and Jess the first time they met or when TI was up here with Young Dro when somebody was in the Background making some comments. Well, we're gonna get those back on this morning. So don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning This is your time to get it off your chest
Starting point is 00:04:04 800-585-1051 we want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club This is your time to get it off your chest 800-585-1051 we want to hear from you on the breakfast club Jason from Canada No, no, I don't okay, I just wanted to call and say yeah, we listen to you guys in Canada also and We were on it's a rock. Oh, wow, but Drake got us taking off. That's not true. All right I don't know that true. That's not a story than they just took us off. Yeah, well discuss that some of the time Hello, who's this? Detroit get it off your chest What up, Dole Detroit? Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I want to get a couple things off my chest, but I want to be brief with you. One, why is it that conversations we have nowadays have to have the pause and different stuff to indicate you're not saying something? To me, I think that's quite ridiculous. I read that sensitive to where you can't say something without having to say the ridiculous pause, no cap and all that. I bet you, we do that too much in the world.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Yeah, sometimes it is very much annoying. You can do what you want to do. You ain't gotta follow the trends. Absolutely, without a doubt. I'm always unique, but at the same time it's just annoying to hear. Even when y'all say certain things or people y'all guess or invite say certain things who just pause like come on man you make the conversation more unrelatable when you pause I'm like what is this what what happened what just happened what did we pause about what did we wait on
Starting point is 00:05:38 that's why I think you should just say that was gay instead of saying pause it was like that was gay well or anything. You know, just be relatable, man. You know, it's dry shit for following these young people. Trans needs to stop. No, no, no. You know, we need to do this.
Starting point is 00:05:53 No, no, no. How old are you? I'm 42. Okay, I was born in 1978. I'm 45. Paul's is our era, sir. Yes, it is. We miss that.

I felt like my life is over Yeah, I made so much promise you to God My mother man, like I wish it's all my worst enemy man. No windows. No escape. I'm thinking about Bruce Willis
Starting point is 00:07:28 Bruce Willis and the movie. I'm pressing the buttons. I'm trying to punch codes. I'm doing everything. I'm like, you know what? Let me think. Yo, I ain't gonna lie. I had a little reception, but not too much. I was playing Marvin Sapnick. Never would have made it. Damn. That's why I did it. Where were you? But the only reason why I got out, the only reason why I got out, because the Spans dude, he kept pressing the button downstairs, and he kept kicking the door,
Starting point is 00:07:46 and then all of a sudden it opened, but it was half of the floor, then it popped up, and then I got out. But I'm just telling everybody right now, man, I don't know if I'm about to get elevated again. You think it's a lawsuit? I don't know if it's a lawsuit,
Starting point is 00:07:57 but I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, because I got a daughter who has a very unhealthy fear of elevators, and she- Oh, it's like the walls are closing in.

It's The Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess and Larry,
Starting point is 00:12:29 Charlamagne the guy, we are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Ladies and gentlemen, the mayor. Mayor Eric Adams, ma'am. Of New York City, Eric Adams. We also have lawyer and political commentator, Ola Yemi, O'Laren, here. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Good morning, man, what's happening? How you feeling, man? Good, good, good, you know, even before we get into the conversation, I was with Jordan the other day, my son, and somehow your name came up. And there was a group of young people in the room talking about politics. It's amazing how so many people are into politics now. And they came up with saying something about there were people saying that how you were trying to push Trump push Trump push Trump
Starting point is 00:13:05 So Jordan pulled up this video one of your shows Oh, you broke down each time you were talking about what was wrong about his race I just broke it down piece by piece and Jordan said dad, you know what truth doesn't matter anymore No, folks don't care about truth. Nobody Facts no longer exists. I've never pushed Trump. I actually do the opposite. Exactly. But we are in a generation where everyone gets up in the morning look on social media and whatever's on there they identify it as the facts. The headlines. Exactly. No one goes into the body of the story. Everybody's just, well you know what this is what the headline said and that's the reality of it. And so it was like an eye-opener for him of how I said Jordan for over and over again that one Moment took away all those years of me saying have your own facts
Starting point is 00:13:55 Don't let anybody define for you you define for yourself. That's right, you know, that's the power of this microphone That's a pie of media. That's putting those facts out. If we don't control the message, the message will control us. We got a lot to talk about today. A lot. Yeah, your city. So today we reported earlier about congestion pricing. What's your thoughts on that?
Starting point is 00:14:15 I think it's gonna cripple New York City. You got a lot of people, the bridges already, the toll's already high. It's $17 I think for George Washington, $11 for the Midtown Tunnels. Parking is extremely high. And now getting into the city, it's going to hurt a lot of people to even drive in the city.
Starting point is 00:14:32 And people are scared of the subways, you know, with everything that's been going on, people getting pushed into the train stations, crime, and people are scared of New York City. That's a lot. Let's unpack it. Let's do the first one first. You've been holding on to a lot. I have. You've been holding on to a lot.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Let's break it down for a moment. Let's break it down in pieces so we can really understand it. First, let's deal with the stuff about people are scared of the subway. When I became mayor, no one wanted to be on the subway. We got over 4 million daily riders. One of my guys was talking to his sister the other day and she said, you know, we have about 200- hundred crimes happening on the subway system. We have six felonies a day on our subway system out of four million riders. Look at those numbers.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Our subway system is a safe system and we put in a different additional thousand officers to do the high visibility to deal with the reality because safety is not only felt, it's perceived. So those six felonies we got to get rid of. We're clear on that. But people are back on our subway system. But when you deal with specifically congested prices, a lot of people don't realize these are the city streets, but we had no authority on it. Albany passed a law and turned it over to the MTA. This is the MTA's baby. They should
Starting point is 00:15:45 have allowed the city to be able to control how congestion pricing was done. So that's $15. We were able to fight to get a hundred million dollars to deal with the environmental impact in the Bronx. We were able to fight to get those who are shift brokers to get a discount, those who make less than $50,000 to get a discount. But this was a bill that came out of Albany. So you don't agree with it or do you agree with it? No, I agree we got to deal with something with the congestion in our city, but you don't
Starting point is 00:16:12 pass on the cost of that on low income New Yorkers or those who have to come to Manhattan. You may have to have of going to your chemotherapy and this is the doctor you have to go to, you should not be here over there because of that. Oh, people that live in the area, they're saying that people that actually live in the area when they drive if they got to drive uptown to the doctor or they got to drive they get charged too. Yeah but I'm not feeling people that live in the area. I'm talking about low-income New Yorkers should not have to carry the burden of that and we
Starting point is 00:16:38 ask to have more and a greater input and the shaping of that but we don't. People often realize we're creatures of Albany. Albany passed the laws, we have to implement the laws that are down here. I think you're right that there is a difference between perception and fact and how people feel about safety and the way people feel about the subways and I think it's your own rhetoric about the subways that has a lot to do with why people feel scared despite the fact that millions of people ride the subway every day without incident But you've continued to fare monger about crime in the subways
Starting point is 00:17:08 You've added 2,000 police officers despite the fact that you've acknowledged that the subways are not that dangerous And I think there is you're right poor New Yorkers should not be the sub y'all So in a recent episode of quest of supreme my co-hosts I'm pay bill and sugar steven I sat down with the king at rock of the Beastie boys We talked about the early days of the Beasties, thinking for records around the globe, and now he makes music these days in a cabin in the mountains. Oh, and this jewel. I was trying to start a band in the 90s called the Nasal Tongues.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Me and Q-Tip and MC Milk and Be Real. Listen to Questlove Supreme on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Sup, y'all.

A tip, but a cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin,
Starting point is 00:18:42 a 15 year old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. -♪ And if you came with me, did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat Nine months before Rosa, he was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history
Starting point is 00:19:02 by tuning in to Historical Records because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey everyone, it's John, also known as Dr. John Paul. And I'm Jordan, or Joe Ho. And we are the Black Fat Film Podcast. A podcast where all the intersections of identity are celebrated.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Ooh chat, this year we have had some of our favorite people on including Kid Fury, T.S. Madison, Amber Ruffin from the Amber and Lacey Show, Angela Carrasso and more. Make sure you listen to the Black Fat Fam podcast on the iHeart Radio app, Apple podcast or whatever you get your podcast girl. Ooh, I know that's right. Jenny Garth, Jana Kramer, Amy Robach and TJ Holmes bring you I Do Part Two,
Starting point is 00:20:00 a one of a kind experiment in podcasting to help you find love again. If you didn't get it right the first time, it's time to try, try again as they guide you through this podcast experiment in dating. Hey, I'm Jana Kramer. As they say, those that cannot do, teach. Actually, I think I finally got it right. So take the failures I've had.
Starting point is 00:20:18 The second or even third or whatever, maybe the fourth time around. I'm Jenny Garth. 29 years ago, Kelly Taylor said these words, "'I choose me.' She made her choice, she chose herself. When it comes to love, choose you first." Hi everyone, I'm Amy Robach. And I'm TJ Holmes, and we are,
Starting point is 00:20:37 well, not necessarily relationship experts. If you're ready to dive back into the dating pool and find lasting love, finally, we want to help. Listen to iDo Part 2 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hey, everyone. I'm Madison Packer, a pro hockey veteran going on my 10th season in New York.
Starting point is 00:21:02 And I'm Anya Packer, a former pro hockey player and now a full Madison Packer stan. Anya and I met through hockey and now we're married and moms to two awesome toddlers. And on our new podcast, Moms Who Puck, we're opening up about the chaos of our daily lives between the juggle of being athletes, raising children and all the messiness in between. We're also turning to fellow athletes and beyond to learn about their parenthood journeys and collect valuable advice, like FIFA World Cup winner Ashlyn Harris. I wish my village would have prepared me for how hard motherhood was gonna be. And Peloton instructor and Ratchet Mom Club founder Kirsten Ferguson.
Starting point is 00:21:39 And I remember going in there hot mess. So listen to Moms Who Puck, a production of iHeart Women's Sports and Deep Blue Sports and Entertainment on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Elf Beauty, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports. The ones who bear the brunt of this, but they will if they already have the subway being turned into a place
Starting point is 00:21:59 that they have to fare, that there's a National Guard, that there's a hyper visibility of police, that they're trying to stop people with certain records from even using them and now you have this congestion price. So how do you reconcile that? Give me, give me the quotes on my rhetoric because I'm lost on that. Can you give me the quote? I'll let you fair monger about the subways?
Starting point is 00:22:14 Oh, you've consistently done that since day one of your administration. One of the first things you did was add a thousand officers to the subway because you claimed that the subways are unrideable. You and Hokel did this and said how dangerous it is and you recently did that when you deployed the National Guard. But that wasn't my question, Queen. My question was what was my fear among you? What did I say? You continuously say, I could point to a number of videos and quotes and everything from you, but you've said repeatedly that the subways are dangerous, that New York is dangerous, you complain about crime relentlessly. So what I'm saying to you is, if you are saying
Starting point is 00:22:43 that New York is one of the safest big cities in this country, which is true, and you're recognizing that the subway stations are in fact not half as dangerous as they're presented to be, I'm saying how do you reconcile how your rhetoric has played into people's fear? And not even just rhetoric, I would say the actions, because she's right.
Starting point is 00:22:57 If you tell us they're feeling safe. Which is different. Which is different. But it's the same thing though. If you put a thousand police officers in the subway, two thousand police officers in the subway, that don't make us feel safe. We think something's wrong if you do it.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Okay, let me, first let me peel back again, cause you gotta always peel back this stuff. You know, because, often time how you depict in the media that I don't control, is how people interpret you. I didn't put the National Guard in the subway. The governor did.
Starting point is 00:23:19 I know, but I know what you said. But you said, but you said, Eric. You stood with Governor Kathy Hoco, and you co-signed that decision, you did. And I'm not saying this as someone who's following social media, I'm saying that as an attorney in this city and an activist who follows everything that you do.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Yeah, if you, I'm glad you do. Because then you'll realize how I turn the city around if you follow everything I do. You'll realize that I- I would say no, but we could get to that next. Loosen up your tie, man. It's gonna be a long day. And listen, and I enjoy every moment of it.
Starting point is 00:23:44 That's right, that's right. You know, because this is what I do. All right. You know, when you come with a serious history, if you follow everything I do, you know how long I've been doing this. Mm-hmm. And you know what my record is. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:23:55 So let's peel back what you just stated. Fear is perceived and felt. That's what fear is. So no matter, as I shared, that we have six felony crimes a day with four million rioters. If people feel unsafe, when we get in the subway system, I ride to subway system, I talk to commuters and I say, what are you feeling and how do I help you with that fear? They say, Eric, we see more visible uniform officers in our subway system. We're going to feel safer.
Starting point is 00:24:22 So we got it that the numbers are down. Now you may say Eric I don't want to see a visible president of a uniform officer and that's cool but that's not what the overwhelming number of New Yorkers are saying. We got more with Eric Adams and Ola Yemi when we come back it's the Breakfast Club good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning everybody it's DJ NV. Jess O'Larry, Charlamagne the guy, we also have Ola Yemi here and we got a special guest, the mayor. Eric Adams joining us this morning, the mayor of New York City I should say. People are also upset that they feel like too much money is going to migrants and you're
Starting point is 00:24:55 cutting too many programs, right? They're saying you're cutting pre-k funding. 170 million in pre-k funding. They're saying that you're cutting so many different funding for other people. Love that, love this question brother, love this question. People are feeling like, you know, they never have money for us but as soon as migrants come in the country, they find money. Listen, people have a right to be angry. You know who's even more angry than they are?
Starting point is 00:25:14 I am. I've been to Washington ten times to talk about this subject. So people got a right to be pissed off of what they're doing to New York City. How can we fix that? Where these, like, I mean, we cut a lot of programs. One day these kids couldn't go to, we cut a lot of programs. 170 million pre-paid funding. But hold on, let's talk about that. One day these kids couldn't go to school
Starting point is 00:25:28 because migrants took over the school one day. No, that's not, that wasn't accurate. We always utilize our school buildings during the time of crisis. And if we're saying to ourselves, if there's some, when we had the major fire when I first became mayor, and we saw that fire in the Bronx.
Starting point is 00:25:42 In the Bronx, yeah. We had to take a school to take care of those people who lived in the building temporarily. When we have major storms, we take a school to use it temporarily. Schools is part of the resources of the city. And thank God we had something called remote learning where people still, young people are still able to go on to learn. But we can't say that we will use a school building during an emergency, but we're not going to do it for children that are migrants and asylum seekers. Some people say, whatever, you giving them more than what you're giving us.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Go to the Herc centers where they are, the shelters. The restrooms are outside, the showers are outside, they're sleeping on cots. They get three basic meals a day. And when I go visit them, they say, we don't want any of this from you. All we want to do is have the Right to wrote so we can provide for ourselves In less than 30 days migrants won't be allowed to work for federal guidelines And they won't be allowed to be housing NYC anymore NYC anymore so where would they go after that?
Starting point is 00:26:37 They finding their way out of the hundred and eighty four thousand sixty percent of them found their way Like many of us have done you notice you don't hear about the- Where do you go get housing in 30 days? Many of them, we're giving them intense care. We're not just telling you come here, hang out for 30 days, and we're not gonna help you, no. In those 30 days, and if you're a young person, you get 60 days, but in those 30 days or 60 days,
Starting point is 00:27:00 we're giving you intense care. We're showing you how to find your way in our city. We're showing you how to go about applying for housing, how to go about applying for the services that you need. And some people are saying, we never wanted to come to New York at all. We wanted to come to another city, but Governor Albin said, no, we're sending you to New York.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Think about this for a moment. We got thousands of Ukrainian migrants, thousands. Do you hear about them? No. Just Mexican and Africans. They have the right to work. So we wouldn't even be having this conversation if we gave them the authority to work. And you know the real irony of this? We need workers. I need lifeguards. I need food service workers. Many of these migrants from violence Venezuela are nurses and other professionals I need people to backstretch workers other states are telling me Eric
Starting point is 00:27:49 We will take the migrants and asylum seekers if they just allow them to work We're not gonna take them and just have them sit around every day if they're allowed to work. We would take them I agree national government No, no She agrees with you. I agree with you that my she agreed with a lot of stuff that no no I trust you that I do not She's on that train. I'm sitting here mayor adams. She's gonna be dialing 911. First of all, I ride the subway every day I've worked as a public defender in this city and represented thousands of people Two more questions. How do debit cards for migrants compare to new york city welfare benefit? Here's what happened We were paying people because we by law we got to feed them three meals a day.
Starting point is 00:28:25 We got to feed the migrants three meals a day. When I told the team we got to bring down the cost of this by 30%, because it was costing us too much money, $12 billion over three years, $4 billion already. One of the places was food. We were seeing that we were having a 10% food waste. So my team came together, first deputy mayor Sheena Wright, first black woman to be a first deputy mayor. She came up with a team called Mocify, M-W-E, black product. They said that we can give people food cards
Starting point is 00:28:58 where they can only purchase food and baby supplies. You would save $600,000 a month in costs. People will buy the food that they want and not giving it to them from someone from some large conglomerate. Then they will have to spend the cards in the bodegas, the supermarkets, the local stores, so the money stays inside the community.
Starting point is 00:29:20 And the program is run by a person of color. We're saving over $7 million a year. And the program is run by a person of color. We're saving over $7 million a year. We have no more food waste because people are buying what they want. It's a black-owned company, so we put money back into our black businesses like I said I was going to do. And you cannot buy anything but food or baby supplies. It's a complete win.
Starting point is 00:29:42 But people heard it and it was sensationalized, oh, you're giving money to migrants. They only get $13 a day for their three meals. It's a complete win. But people heard it and it was sensationalized. Oh, you're giving money to migrants. They only get $13 a day for those three meals. It's a winning program. Oh, yeah. It's not that I have a problem with it. I said, again, the sensationalism has a lot to do with the fact that you got up and declared that we have this migrant crisis. And I thought it was interesting your earlier point about the difference between how Ukrainian migrants are being received versus migrants, black and Latino migrants. Because again, you gave a town hall where you were the one who gave this speech and and like you incentivize New Yorkers to feel this way. Feel which way?
Starting point is 00:30:12 This feel like there is a migrant crisis where the migrants are being treated differently than them, where they're getting resources that the migrants are getting resources that are not being given to them because you were the one who presented it to the city that you had to cut budgets across because of the migrant crisis. Even though recently, you decided that you'll had to cut budgets across because of the migrant crisis even though recently You decided that you'll actually do have the money to handle the migrant issue that just wasn't publicized as much So this goes back to my original discussion You're an attorney and you I'm amazed. I think your art is I'm just gonna throw it out there and make people feel that way
Starting point is 00:30:39 Mayor Adams, before you say it, there's an entire council that knows your line. Sister, let me, let me, we still don't have the money for the migrants. We spent $12 billion in three years. $4 billion already. What I said to New Yorkers at that town hall, this issue will bankrupt, will destroy our city. This issue, not the- You called specific countries. I remember you calling the countries that the migrants were from. They weren't the Ukrainian migrants. You weren't talking about them.
Starting point is 00:31:07 So what happens when New York City doesn't have the money for migrants? And then you know, the migrants are in this city and they probably have to do what most poor people have to do, which sometimes results in crime. How is that going to make the city safe? Right, right. And that's part of the problem. The real focus should be on our national government that's saying, why are you doing this to New York? So our folks, what they wanted to happen, Governor Abbott wanted to happen, we're gonna turn these cities against their mayors. We're gonna create this environment where they're all gonna go against their mayor. And they're using this to say,
Starting point is 00:31:42 okay, these black mayors are not competent. They can't run their cities. They're getting everything to the migrants and asylum seekers. This was a perfectly executed plan that we are buying into. To make black mayors look bad across the country. Exactly. And when we're doing just the opposite,
Starting point is 00:31:55 they're playing us, man. They're playing us. You know that? I respect any elected official who can come have this conversation. Cause these are the tough questions. From your constituents. Yeah, without a doubt, without a doubt.
Starting point is 00:32:07 But when my gloves are hung up, people are looking at, let's say that was an authentic, ball-headed, earring-wearing brother that did his thing as the mayor of the city of New York. The most important city on the globe is being run by a person who is dyslexic, arrested, rejected, and now I'm elected You need a mayor of the city. Well, they have it. It's me Eric Adams Oh, let me oh, let me get me Oh Lauren It's the breakfast club. Good morning

Oh my God, he used to always cheat on me. Is he sick now? Now that you're successful, that he call you all the time like, hey?

So I seen the one **** I'm like, ooh, I can't, I hated this so bad. You ain't do nothing. Oh baby, I did do something. That's the point of the story. I did it.

So you done keyed cars, you done broke windshields, you done flattened tires. Yeah, yeah, egg cars, all kind of shit.

Everybody was telling him, I knew I was pregnant, but everybody was already snitching on me. I'm like no, that's not true. He like, it is.

My feet was hurting, I had to take the shoes off. Because when she dance she got heels on, you can tell it hurts. So she like, she about to just do it and start doing this with her heels. I hate wearing heels on stage. I want them to get you some nice red slippers though. You think so it hurts. So she just do it. I hate I hate wearing heels on stage

So I don't that's why I'm saying I won't be judging people. I just don't care You like to read? Sexy red ladies and gentlemen, appreciate you, Sexy Red. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Don't be a stranger. Yes, appreciate you, sir. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You make sure you tell them to watch out for Florida Man. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. Yes, you are a donkey. A Florida man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason.
Starting point is 01:03:25 It gave him too much money. Florida man is arrested after deputy say he rigged the door to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife. Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a flamingo. Put the breakfast club bitch in. Donkey of the day. When Shalom ain't a guy. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this. You know Donkey of the day, it goes to two Miami men named Carlos M. Garcia, a Jit, a Jit, a Jit, can't be a Jit, his name ain't a Jit, would it be a Jit? He's too old to be a Jit.
Starting point is 01:03:52 And Navaldo J. Garcia Vento, okay 40 and 41 years old. Now listen, what does your uncle Sharla always say about the great state of Florida? Say it with me, the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida and today is no exception. Now today's story has me thinking about this Diddy situation because if you haven't heard, one of the pieces of evidence law enforcement is using against Diddy is the 1,000 bottles of lubricant and baby oil they found in his home that they say were used in these alleged freak-offs Diddy was having. Okay, now when I heard about the 1,000 bottles of lube and baby oil, I said to myself, there
Starting point is 01:04:28 wasn't a dry booty in the house. Okay, not one single solitary set of dry cheeks. Then I thought to myself, well what else did Diddy have in bulk in the house? Some people go to Costco and just buy things in bulk. Maybe that was just a bulk purchase. And I know we was all wondering, where does a man buy 1000 bottles of lubricant and baby oil? Well, we may have our answer because these two Miami men, Carlos and Nevaldo,
Starting point is 01:04:51 were suspects in a theft ring and they steal from major retailers like Publix, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, and Winn-Dixie. And they got busted with thousands of dollars worth of stolen merchandise, okay? $5,000 thousand dollars to be exact including but not limited to razor blades fishing gear cosmetics and 400 sticks of deodorant I repeat 400 sticks of deodorant okay that's the one that's getting me 400 sticks of deodorant they got caught because police had a description of their vehicle, a brown GMC SUV.
Starting point is 01:05:27 They had just hit a Walmart. So when a deputy saw them run a red light, why would you run a red light when you know you got all these stolen items in your vehicle? They ran a red light. They conducted a traffic stop. And then these two Florida fools took the cops on a short chase. Deputies reviewed Walmart's security security footage and that's when they saw one of the guys stealing a package of lead razor blades and when
Starting point is 01:05:48 they searched the vehicle they found six large trash bags full of suspected stolen items including the 400 sticks of deodorant. I have so many thoughts about this situation. Number one if I was law enforcement my first question would be do you know Sean Combs and have you ever sold him? any Astro glide in bulk my second question is I understand these men committed a crime But are they really doing a service? See people be musty man some of y'all underarms be out here smelling like weed a whole out pack
Starting point is 01:06:21 So so many people amongst us be making right guard go left. You make speed stick slow down. Sure, not really. I don't know what it is. Maybe at my old age, my nose is a lot more sensitive than it used to be, or maybe everyone is trying to go natural when they shouldn't be. So when you got folks walking around smelling like Funyuns,
Starting point is 01:06:39 I'm not mad at these brothers for having 400 sticks of deodorant on deck. Okay, they have a heat advisory today in Miami. Okay, I feel like these two brothers is fed up. Do you know how many, do you know how musty people must be for them to say we have to go steal as much access possible? They just as fed up as the first person to invent deodorant. Do you know how fed up with the smell of armpits
Starting point is 01:07:03 one must be to go home and start inventing things to prevent said smell? Deodorant was introduced in the late 1800s. That means people were musty at the last supper man. All through the 1400s, 1500s, 1600s, 1700s, most of the 1800s folks were stinking until someone invented this thing that killed odor causing bacteria called mum. That was the name of it. Mum. Look it up.
Starting point is 01:07:25 I have no idea what that means, but in my brain, it registers as musty underarm mammal. So there is a part of me that wants to applaud these men for stealing all this deodorant for people, but on the flip side, they made it hard for folks who know they need deodorant, but can't find none in Miami because they done stole it all.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Same way you probably couldn't find no lubricant or baby oil wherever Diddy was at because he had it all at his house. Now that I think about it, that's a bottom trap. Imagine being a bottom, going in the store to find the lube. You need to have a good night. What's up y'all? So in a recent episode of Quest Love Supreme,

Starting point is 01:16:15 or see the good in you, I think you should give them a hug and tell them life is difficult for the blind. You know? That's real. He had the D.A.D. You know what I'm saying? He had the D.A.D.
Starting point is 01:16:24 When did you decide or what got you into rehab? When was that call and that said this is the time? Because I mean, from my whole career, I would see Drow in the club with me every week and Drow was performing. Drow was at every stage. You were the epitome of an artist because you were out. I got tired like the same things over and over again. Getting high and saying I'm not getting high and you know repeat, repeat, repeat.
Starting point is 01:16:46 You can't laugh at me, can't do it. You can't do it. Laughing like hell at this man's struggle. This man talking about it real, overcoming the real struggle. This man back at that head. I want to ask you, cause your crew just do nothing but laugh. Like even this day T.I.'s like, welcome to the show, what's your deal? Like nobody takes it serious.
Starting point is 01:17:04 But you know what though No, but you know, you know, it was more than that it was actually I overdose you feel I'm saying and um, I used The I used this platform with it with the thank God is a dastardly individual. So, you almost overdosed? Yo, I did. No. No, I mean, and all of these things happened.
Starting point is 01:17:50 The overdose. My daughter was on drugs. And, you know, career-wise, I wasn't where I wanted to be. What's up with your man, man? Hey, you finna get slapped, man. I mean, we cool, but I slapped the shit out of you by last night. Oh, man. I'm just telling you, we cool, but I slap I'm just telling you So but row
Starting point is 01:18:23 Hey, listen hey both of y'all. Oh, y'all, everybody came in the with me. Hey, look, hey, look, remember who you came in and remember what we doing here, man. Come on, man. Get the other bruh, all right? All right. I'm sorry, guys. And first of all, Joe, congratulations on being two years old.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Yeah, like I was saying. Three, actually. Three, I'm approaching four. You feel what I'm saying? So, like all of these things happened to where it made me want to Actually seek something better. You know what I mean? So when I took myself to rehab out in LA Did a couple months out there and it was cool. You know, I got back out and I was still tempted to Live that kind of life, but I saw what was in front of me and I was like, this is more valuable.
Starting point is 01:19:06 What gave you the courage, I would say, to be able to talk about it, right? Because some people look about it as it's embarrassing, and then some people will say, you know, it could actually help people as going through the same thing that you're actually going through or that you dealt with, you know? I mean, the support team, you feel what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:19:20 Because the first time it happened, we had like an intervention and he came out. You mean first time, like overdose first time? I need to know what a grand hospital intervention looks like. He came over and I'm like bro I'm delicate right now. But I mean like the love I got in the support I got it made me feel safe and you know I'm saying of course I do feel ashamed you know I'm saying at first you know what I mean like we from you impose to let nobody see you like that you know I'm saying we always talk like you know I'm saying once you
Starting point is 01:19:53 find yourself in that position and your brother call you out on it you be you be you be hoping that you can get rid of it before he come and check me but when he come check me on it I get mad at myself like damn I supposed to got straight before you know I mean my manager would come or if he would come you feel no sense so Not if not the odd thing about it is you know I'm saying and we've had the conversation before like it's long as he We was battling this addiction long as he was on drug. I'd never actually saw him do drug I'd never saw it like you know saying so whatever he would do he do know what I'm saying? So whatever he would do, he'd do it. And I don't know whether he would have while he was around me or not, but.
Starting point is 01:20:28 I was. But what I'm saying is, like while we was around each other, it was still this and it was still like this. So when I went to him, I didn't even know, I didn't know the difference. You know what I'm saying? I still, but I was concerned.
Starting point is 01:20:42 So I'm like, hey man, do what you gonna do, bro. I ain't finna sit around watching you do this. I ain't gonna do it. I feel like I was concerned so I'm like hey man did what you gonna do, bro I ain't gonna sit around watch you do this. I ain't gonna do it I feel like I remember that period when you would get it feel like he was giving drill tough love like you had to Put him to the side. You didn't cut him off put him to the side. I just told him man. You're gonna either man I can't just continue to Support you deteriorate destroy yourself so many of our've seen so many people fall and not make it. That man made it three times. What drug was it? Was it Percocet?
Starting point is 01:21:12 It was fentanyl. It was a Perc. So once I took it, I didn't believe it. You feel what I'm saying? So when that happened, I felt like now I'm on my own. I'm on my own. I'm on my own. I didn't believe it. You feel what I'm saying? So when that happened, I felt like now I'm obligated
Starting point is 01:21:30 to tell my story so it can help somebody that's fighting addiction. You know what I mean? We just lost Atlanta Legend. Yeah, recipe's written on it. You feel what I'm saying? And for me to be there and made it through, I think that you know
Starting point is 01:21:46 I should use these this platform that I have you know that he shares with me And then it was also after we lost our partner or peanut the dough peanut the dough I mean like he died the same way you know saying but for it's a calling on this man life So when you say why is he sharing it? I don't think he has a choice No, I feel like he would kind of position to survive all the stuff that he survived to have the effortless Connection with community, you know what I'm saying? I we got more with TI and young Joe when we come back. It's the breakfast club morning We are the breakfast club. Let's get back into our interview with TI and Joe Lauren
Starting point is 01:22:23 How did you feel after you're in the studio and you finally say it is on the record? Like, did you feel weight lifted off of you or did you, were you anxious about how people would respond to knowing exactly what happened or? I felt like a weight lifted off of me because of where we recorded at with Kirk Franklin. I overdosed in that studio. So I think that where God, where I put myself at God built me right back up. Was that a purposely done thing or God just ended up back? I just put it just happened that way, you know I'm saying and I was shamed to go back to the studio You know, I was talking to God
Starting point is 01:22:52 I don't want to go back and he was like go back in there and watch what I do You know me I was gonna ask did you did you deal with? Why you need it or why you thought you needed those pills was it upset was it? I wanted to turn up was did you think you needed it to make a record? Did you deal with that part of it? Because that's the part that scares me with any artist because it's like you take it feeling like it's going to take you to someplace else and it's like well what made you feel like I had to take that pill? It started out with like just having fun and you know in the hood getting high but then
Starting point is 01:23:21 it made me feel like I needed it to make good music you know I'm saying it actually just stimulated and I used to just write crazy and then it got to the point where like it became an addiction so it that went out the window music went out the window and then I was like oh I need it you know do this and do that you know I'm saying plus from trauma you know I'm saying things happened to me when I was younger you know I mean being shot and introduced to Demerol and addicted to that in the hospital and You know from from the from the way I got whoopings as a child How does that affect you with your kids how you discipline your kids?
Starting point is 01:23:56 I see us I recognized it and I'm not gonna do it to that degree I'm a straight mind, but I ain't gonna go that far because I don't want to repercussion. I feel like as far as child discipline is concerned they just need to know that they can get their ass whooped. You see what I'm saying? You don't always have to whoop their ass but you gotta do it. You gotta lay it down one time and they're like hey you remember okay now. You see what I'm saying? So y'all got boys I got all girls so it's different. Oh no you can't get a whooped girl man. You can't whoop your girl. That's what I'm saying Y'all got a strong black woman with you. That's right Absolutely. You did say something your daughter was on drugs too you said?
Starting point is 01:24:31 Yeah, my little girl ended up picking up drugs But it happened just like how I did it when I was 17 18 You feel me and it just played back and it's the generation Generational curse that like how my father, my father picked it up at that age and he did it for 50 years. You feel me? Then I picked it up and then I lived that way. Then my little girl and I was thinking about it
Starting point is 01:24:53 and all of this happened before I went to rehab. The overdose, this and all of that. You feel what I'm saying? So when she did it, I looked at God and it was just like he had just revealed himself. Like, hey, I'm here now. It's time to start grabbing this by the reins You know I'm saying so when that happened I was in rehab while she was out we supposed to went together To get the help you know I'm saying and she wasn't ready
Starting point is 01:25:16 But I had to go ahead of her to be an example you know and I actually broke this curse in my family because example you know and I actually broke this curse in my family because she's good man she working at the hospital and we talk all the time she's doing great man she's clean amen you have the um it takes a village foundation that you do for your in the schools talking to the kids when you're talking to the kids like what are you dissecting from your story to cuz some of the kids I saw in these videos were really young so what are the main issues you're seeing with the kids and and how do you take your story and kind of mentor them up of it? Oh, so what we do is it is still takes a village we're in the communities and then the schools and in the homes and we do like interventions and I use what I've been through and
Starting point is 01:26:02 And then my manager, Dr. Ciara L, she is like, she's been an LPC for 20 years and she's into mental and behavioral health. You feel what I'm saying? So when we come into a situation, I try to bring the street part into it. You feel what I'm saying? And let people know, you know, what to do when you're like conflict resolution,
Starting point is 01:26:22 if you're out in the street and you feel like you don't wanna be no lame and this and that. But sometimes they diagnose these young kids with things that's not wrong with them. You feel me? They be like, oh, he bipolar or he mad at, but only thing is he'd probably be mad at his dad because he wasn't at home or they don't have nothing to eat
Starting point is 01:26:41 or you know what I'm saying? But we give them, we diagnose them with stuff like that. But my partner, she covers that area and I can tell them about the street part. So we do mentoring and stuff like that. Do they know when you come in because the kids are so young, do they know young Joe the artist or are they just happy that someone's in the school talking to them that they can relate to? Well in Atlanta, nine times out of ten, I've probably done been in that project before. Got you. You feel what I'm saying? Oh I didn't know
Starting point is 01:27:07 it comes. He's gonna look and say, hey man, who your mommy? Who your daddy? Yeah man, tell your daddy I said, he's one of those kind of people. But we do want to go across like America for the most part. You feel me? So if you can't identify with who I am as a rapper, you'll identify with what I've been through. And what I've been through is what a lot of youth go through, you know what I mean? Black, white, whatever. You feel what I'm saying? If you've never been through the trenches before, I have trenches stories and I have an outcome that I made it out You know won't he do it thank God just thinking like we should come to God like y'all y'all story They're gonna be amazing
Starting point is 01:27:54 Throw cover to with tip cover I think I understand his position he understand my position I know that God got his hand on him cuz I can see it and man I'm on bar time If you're supposed to be seen right here doing this interview, okay I saw him lifeless. I saw him. I saw it with my own eyes There's no amount of money you can pay that in person But my son like the money was actually the one that walked in and saw he faith time
Starting point is 01:28:23 He say hey, what's up with Joe? I'm trying to wake him up. He won't wake up. And I'm like, Joe, Joe, hey, man. That's what woke me up. I was like, this is so annoying. He was in my own room. He was in my own room.

Starting point is 01:28:47 It was like he was trying to talk back, but he couldn't talk back. Couldn't talk. I was like, man, go and call the Amulet, man. And you know what I'm saying? They said that he had, that Demani had the, Yeah, Demani was actually, my nephew actually, wow, he did the CPR thing.
