Breakfast Club 30.
Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy
Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now we're talking about first and foremost
rest in peace to PNB Rock.
He was killed yesterday out
in LA.A.
They tried to rob him for his jewelry or rob him for his jewelry and wound up shooting him and killing him.
And we were talking about how things have to change, right?
800-585-1051.
By the way, it feels like we have this conversation every few months.
Somebody that we know has, you know, gotten gunned down for nothing.
You know, we have these conversations every time there's a senseless act of violence,
which is every day.
Yeah, and this is my problem.
A lot of times when we hear things like that, people make excuses.
They talk about everything under the sun, right?
Whether the environment that's out there right now,
the fact that we're in a recession,
the fact that they say his girlfriend posted that they were there.
They talk about all those different things.
And it always bothers me because I always feel like we don't talk about the fact that no matter what, they took that man's life over a piece of jewelry.
Yeah. I mean, first and foremost, you've got to send positive energy to the family of that brother.
You know what I'm saying? That's number one.
And, you know, yeah, like I said earlier, I wish at times like this we did discuss the actual issue of what we are doing to each other in our communities and why.
You know, because the issues to me are gun violence. The issues to me are lack of opportunity and income, lack of employment, lack of love for your fellow man.
Some people got mental health issues. You got drug use. And you're right. Discussing his girl, posting his location.
That's a topic, not the actual issue, because the people who did that to him would do that regardless of who posted what.
All right. Not to mention, you know, you think people in Roscoe's couldn't have had that brother, you know, lined up.
And that's why when we have these conversations, situations like this, we got to discuss how things are and not how things should be.
You know what I'm saying? Because if you operating from the perspective of how things should be, then these things will continue to happen
and you're setting yourself
up for failure
because we got to start
moving and responding
to these situations
based on what we know
to be true,
not what we want to be true.
Yeah, we all,
you would love to wear
your jewelry
and drive your cars
anywhere you want to
and pull up
where you want to,
but that's not
the reality of life.
You know you can't do that.
And if you do,
there's going to be
consequences and repercussions.
Right. But that shouldn't be the case, that. And if you do, there's going to be consequences and repercussions. Right. But
that shouldn't be the case, right? And
people talk about, it's
a matter of people want fast money
a majority of the time, right?
You talk about there's not jobs.
Just a couple of months ago, Angeli reported
that there was so many jobs
and people didn't want to work. Because a lot of times
people want fast money. They don't
want the grind of starting from working at fast food
or the grind at working at Target or the grind at working at Walmart.
When they see somebody walking around with a $100,000 chain,
it's like, oh, I could just take this chain right here.
That's my year's salary.
But that's not the mentality that we need.
Sometimes also these people that are doing these things
aren't even necessarily people who are starving.
Think about the people who you know who rob people or set people up or do these scams and they don't
come from a bad family they don't have you know those issues that we can assume that somebody
who's like seeing that that person has more than me you know I'm starving out here sometimes that's
not even the case but I will say that like I look at myself i live in brooklyn still and i walk around i do what i have to do but i also am like i don't have
expensive jewelry i've never really because i i don't feel safe that way you know personally so
if somebody tries to do something to me they're not i don't really have anything yeah for you to
take i just want i just i just really want us to start dealing with these situations
based on what we know
to be true
and not what we want
to be true.
Because what's true is
there is no code.
There's never been a code.
Folks are ruthless
and cutthroat
and will kill you
if you have something
they want.
It's just that simple.
We got inflation
through the roof right now.
Poverty through the roof.
The gap between the haves
and have-nots is greater
than it's ever been.
So you factor in that
with lack of income, like I said, and lack of education, lack of community support,
and then people just being plain evil.
And you have a generation of people who don't know how to balance what they are seeing every day on social media
versus what they are dealing with in real life.
All of that is a recipe for disaster.
Envy, you talk about people not wanting to take the long route.
Why would I want to take the long route if I get on social media and i see people just holding up stacks of cash and
everybody looking like they got rich overnight why why do i gotta take the long because it's the
right thing to do like it is it's like like it's easy to rob well i'm gonna say it's easy to rob
somebody but yeah that's the easy route to go rob somebody get something but that's the right thing
to do work for what you got like you know i tell the story in my book where you know i, I think it was like 10 years ago, 11 years ago, 12 years ago, 13 years.
I think it was like 13 years ago.
Somebody robbed me.
Right.
Robbed me in the city.
And now this is another thing.
The first thing when you get robbed is to fight back.
That's what I did.
Right.
I fought back and I chased the kid and I caught the kid that robbed me.
The kid that robbed me actually won the lotto a week before.
I think it was like he won $80,000 a week before. How much did he win?
I think it was like he won $80,000 the week before.
But it was an opportunity that he felt.
He seen me.
He thought I was slipping, and he robbed me.
I chased him, and I caught him. But the thing is, he just had $80,000.
There was no reason to.
He didn't need the money.
He wasn't a mess.
He wanted more.
He was driving an X5.
Well, listen, you know what's so funny?
But that's the problem.
He did not want to work for it.
He felt like this was the easy way and he was going to try to do it that way.
You know what's interesting?
What you said is absolutely true, right?
But you're saying to yourself, why would he rob me if he just won $80,000 the week before?
That's what people would say about brothers who be in the hood with all their jewelry on and those big cars.
Why are you in the hood with all this jewelry on and all of these big cars?
You have no reason to be here. Same reason that guy
had no reason to rob you, you had no reason to be there.
I just want to know, why do we continue to put ourselves
in harm's way? And if you do want to be
in the hood, why aren't you with security?
I get it, but you know, driving
through the hood is not illegal. I ain't say driving
through the hood. You know, but robbing somebody at gunpoint
and sticking them up is. Absolutely. But you didn't
answer the question. Why aren't you with security?
Sometimes artists look at that as also being, like, inspirational.
Like, I remember when we opened the juice bar in Bed-Stuy and 50 Cent came.
And, you know, obviously all of the locks were there.
Jeezy was there.
And how much it meant to the kids in the neighborhood to be able to see them.
Like, you would never think you would see them over there.
But that's a false equivalency, though, because you opened a business.
Like, somebody opened a business in the hood.
That's a big difference between just sitting in the hood with all your jewelry on and a big car for no reason.
And 50 had like 20 people with them just in case.
You know why?
But I am saying that sometimes artists look at it like, I don't want to never go back places.
I want people to be able to see me and be inspirational.
Because some people look at it as inspirational.
You should go back, but if you go back, don't just go back for for no reason don't go back just because you want to just sit up in the
hood and have a meal and if you are going to do that where is your security but you and we're
also the generation not the generation but we also have a culture where we like to oh i'm in the hood
with all my jewelry on and no security there's nothing to brag about people want to feel like
they're comfortable where they're from but the problem is is, you know, most people can't afford security.
24-hour security.
If you can't afford to protect it, then you can't afford to wear it.
And you know that.
Like, you know, people, they'll get a check and they'll go get a piece of jewelry because they feel like they need that for their rap career, right?
If you can't afford to protect it, you can't afford to wear it.
Because they feel like they need it for their rap career.
But you can't, most people can't afford 24-hour security.
Most of your favorite rappers can't afford 24-hour security.
You don't have to be 24 hours, but with those couple hours you're sitting in that place,
you should have your security.
If you can't afford to protect it, then you can't afford to wear it.
And if you're going to be out like that in areas like that, hire the proper security.
And I'm not talking about the homies.
I'm talking about Israeli-trained, former police officers, former military-style security.
Okay, once again, if you can't afford to protect it, then you can't afford to wear it.
Yeah, I get that.
But also, you shouldn't feel like you have to rob your brother to take something man
envy jealous once again we gotta we have to start moving and responding to these situations based
on what we know to be true not what we want to be true but these feelings and these cowards and
these boys these guys feeling like boys because somebody has something better than me i have to
take it as a whack trait and being that being in these environments with all your jewelry on and all of these big cars for no
reason is a whack trait too you should be able to drive wherever you want to drive right you should
be able to take where your jewelry and do whatever you want to do the way you want to do as long as
you work hard for right no once again you talk you're discussing how things are not you you're
discussing how things should be, not how they are.
There's a difference.
Well, when we come back, the ticket calls.
No, but unless we discuss how things actually are and not how they should be,
we're not going to ever get anywhere with this,
and we're going to keep repeating this cycle over and over.
800-585-1051.
Let's talk about it.

This is The Breakfast Club 30, part of Sunday Night Podcast on iHeartRadio.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about PNB Rock.
He was killed yesterday for his jewelry.
And we're just talking about everything.
Everything that goes into that.
The mentality, the mind frame, just everything.
And we got a lot of people on the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, good morning. It's Dwayne
from Milwaukee.
Dwayne from Milwaukee.
Yes, I wanted to talk about the
PMB Rock situation. Like Charlamagne
said, we have to address the reality
of how it is and not how we wish it to be.
And the reality is
that young lady not sharing the location,
he may still be here.
We don't even know
If that's the reason
Yeah we don't know
If that's the reason
But people assume
It could have been
He was in the hood
It could have been
Somebody who worked there
I wouldn't blame her
It could have been
Somebody that was there
It could have seen
Somebody that pulled the rug
I'm not blaming her
The reason
I'm sorry
The reason why I'm saying that
Is every time we share a location
We're putting ourselves in danger
You know
People can go to your house
Because they know you're not there
And unfortunately
For this situation
People can go where you are.
And that's just the reality of the thing nowadays.
People are out there looking for you.
The reality is, it's not that she shared the location.
The reality is he was in that location.
That's the reality.
The reality is he probably shouldn't have been in that location.
No, it's no probably.
He shouldn't have been in that location.
It's not about her sharing it. Like, we got to that that's i don't know why y'all keep blaming that
girl yeah that doesn't make any sense hello who's this hello this isaiah lee hey good morning what's
your opinion brother um my opinion is it's just stupid that people don't want to work and like
i don't know people are just stupid and i don't know like i'm from california from la
and people are just crazy out there i know why they do everything you know like when you've been
around them like all your life you know exactly why they do it and it's just like politics and
all that crap i wouldn't just say it's california it's happening it's happening everywhere it's
happening in new york it's happening in florida it's happening in chic wouldn't just say it's California. It's happening everywhere. It's happening in New York.
It's happening in Florida.
It's happening in Chicago.
It's happening in everywhere.
It's nasty out here.
It's nasty out there.
And, you know, like I said,
we got to move to a position
where we can protect ourselves
and make sure we're safe.
Hello, who's this?
Hello?
Hey, what's your name?
Yo, my bad.
Yo, I got that Jay-Z player.
I love how y'all just
like yo just play a whole jv first i love that i i just noticed that yesterday we don't even
play little wayne and rick ross first it's just it's just over and it's still full of people
i had a good versus two they had they had good verses too but yo it's hope baby but um so anyway
i want to talk with charlamagne charlamagne yes sir all right so charlamagne you want to talk
about why you know you know if he feels like you want to talk about why, you know,
if you feel like we should be able to walk around, you know,
with our chains off, but, you know, you feel like, oh, we can't
because, you know, in certain environments, we have to be protected.
But, you know, the reason why we have to do that?
Why?
Because of s*** tree.
Okay.
That's why.
That is why.
And I feel like You be making excuses
For s*** me a lot
Up here
I know
Blaming on the government
Blaming on white people
Oh black poor people
Don't have this
So they gotta do this
That and the third
Bro
These people wanna do that
Whoever killed TNB Rock
He probably feel
He got bad to honor or something
Yeah but
But why
But
But let me ask you a question, my brother.
Are we talking about how things, you know, should be?
Or are we talking about how things actually are?
Oh, no, we're talking about exactly how things are.
The reason why I got to protect myself when I'm walking around the street at night is because of f***ing trees.
It's not black people.
It's the inwoods.
But if we, but, so we so we not we not we not debating
nothing and you agree with me i'm telling you i'm sitting here telling you that i'm telling you that
situations like this we got to discuss how things are not how things should be and as long as you
all right so let's address that problem we already identified that i'm saying let's address that
problem listen regardless of what you call it you know what I mean? If I tell you that there's a lack of opportunity
An income, a lack of employment
There's no such growth
Bro, I live in New York City
There's plenty of opportunity
That's not true
I'm right here
That's not true
Angel E is a New York ambassador
For the New York City Library
She can tell you all the resources
Just in the library right now
If you're trying to find
ways to help yourself out there.
You can't help nobody that don't
want to help themselves. That is very true, but my brother,
don't act like these people in certain
communities suffer from a lack of education
and suffer from a lack of knowledge. They don't have that
information. Not saying that they can't
go get it, but they don't have it.
Alright, bro. Thank you for calling.
I don't know why
we so quick to uh blame ourselves for positions that we were systemically put in no like we're
acting we're acting like black people were not systemically put in these positions like the lack
of opportunity and income the lack of education the lack of employment wasn't systemically designed
that way but that doesn't give anybody the right to kill somebody over a chain it doesn't give them
the right but it doesn't give them the right to kill somebody over a chain. It doesn't give them the right, but you can
understand those are the ingredients for a recipe for disaster.
I can never understand somebody killing somebody
over a piece of jewelry. I can never
understand a brother being in the hood with all that jewelry
on that don't need to be there. I can never
understand a person. That's not against the law.
It's not against the law, but why?
Y'all say I'm making excuses.
Y'all be making excuses too. I'm not making
excuses. I mean, if a man works hard, he should be able to do what he wants to do.
And he should be able to.
And not somebody want to take his life over a piece of metal.
We're the only people who think like that.
Anybody else that got something to lose knows that they can't be in certain environments.
They can't be around certain things.
And if they are going to be there, they're going to have the proper things in place to protect them.
If you can't afford to protect what you have, then you can't afford to have it.
800-585-1051.
Let's discuss.
We're talking PNB Rock.
iHeart Radio.
For podcast discovery, this is the Breakfast Club 30.
Here we go.
Your chance to hear the biggest trending podcast each week from the free iHeart Radio app.
Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking PNB Rock.
He was killed in L.A. yesterday,
robbery for his chain,
and we're just discussing it
and talking about it.
First, let's just say, again,
healing energy and condolences
to his whole family,
his girlfriend, his child.
And stop blaming his girlfriend
for sharing a location, okay?
Because the truth of the matter is,
from everybody that I've spoken to in LA he
shouldn't have been in that location to begin with I know roofless hood dudes who don't go over there
from what I was told yesterday so it's like it's not about her sharing the location it's about the
location period and he could have got lined up by anybody in that Roscoe's hello who's this yo this
is Monaco Monaco good morning calling from Jersey I'm calling from Jersey. Good morning, Monaco. I totally agree with you, Charlamagne.
It's like these artists got to have some type of accountability.
Like, California is the mecca of robbery.
These artists go out to California all the time flashing their jewelry and stuff.
We lost Pop Smoke out there.
Sauce Walker just tried to get robbed a few days ago.
It's like this is a normal currency that goes on in Cali.
So why would you want to go to a spot where artists is over and over and over again robbed for their jewelry and walking around public like it's Disney World or something?
But I also feel like a lot of times people get comfortable, right?
You move to certain areas like L.A.
It's sunny.
It's nice.
You see nice things.
And people get comfortable.
But you know the type of culture that's going on out there.
But people get comfortable.
I mean, you should never get that comfortable the way you're sitting in Englewood in a Roscoe.
You know, when I was there last time, I was staying at the one hotel.
And I was going across the street to just go get something from Pink Dot.
And they told me at their front desk, don't go across the street by yourself.
That's real.
And I was like, all right.
I mean, I'm not from here.
So I'm going to listen to what y'all have to tell me but also i think people get comfortable when nothing ever happens to them right because they don't have anything well he
just said somebody tried him the week before too yeah but he never he didn't get robbed it's the
difference when you have a conversation because he didn't if he wanted to get robbed they would
have robbed his ass but when you don't get robbed and a gun is not in your face when that happens
you move differently no matter who it is you talk to any artist that ever got into that situation,
they move militant because they never want it to happen again.
Like Phif, shot the 50 cent.
50, we all know, 50 got shot, what, nine times?
Nine times.
Nine times.
Phif moves differently.
That's right.
Even if you think 50's by himself, he is never by himself because of that situation.
It's just what it is.
And I guess, you know, people do get comfortable.
And that's why I said, if you're going to be out there Like that in areas like that
Hire the proper security
And I'm not talking
About the homies
I'm talking about
Israeli trained
Former police officers
Who really know
How to handle their business
Hello who's this?
How you doing?
It's Lamar
Lamar come on
And talk to us
Good morning
Yo honestly
I was sitting here thinking
Because I had one
Chain of thought
But then I changed my mind
You know hearing y'all
You know I think we We just need to accept This part of the culture I'm sitting here thinking, because I had one train of thought, but then I changed my mind, you know, hearing y'all.
You know, I think we just need to accept this part of the culture.
Like, death is part of life.
And I'm thinking, like, in the rap culture, it's just part of it, bro.
Yikes. You know, we talk about all the, you know, drugs.
Of course, there's haters.
We talk about haters.
And everybody's raps talk about, they talk about haters.
You know what I mean? So, it's haters. We talk about haters. And everybody's raps talk about, they talk about haters. You know what I mean?
So it's part of the rap culture.
So we just need to accept the fact that death is just part of rap.
You know what I'm saying?
You can't accept that.
I'm going to tell you this, my brother.
I can't accept that.
I think it's part of trauma.
You know what I'm saying?
And my man, Resmaa Minicom says all the time, trauma in a people decontextualize over time starts to look like culture this is not
our culture sadly it's not this is our trauma and this is and we're projecting our trauma on each
other that's what this is and you know according to documentaries hip-hop started from negative
you know negative things you know so obviously it's going to trickle down into worse you know, negative things, you know, so obviously it's going to trickle down into worse, you know,
and then we had hip hop, which wasn't really rap. We had hip hop, which was fun rap, you know, fun,
you know, music, you know, disco, whatever, but then rap came along and then that's where it kind
of like threw all the whole trauma thing. It was trauma, you know, poetry with our trauma,
but then it just, you know, ended up being glorified into like negative glorification.
And then now we just
got to just take
what we got now,
which is...
I can't accept it, brother.
Yeah, and I don't think
hip hop started
from something negative.
I thought it was out in the park
and they were making
breakbeats off of old records
and that's how hip hop
was created.
And then, you know,
throughout the years,
people started talking
about their lives
and a lot of our lives
was coming from areas
from struggle.
That's where it came from. But it didn't start from negativity and beefing and fouls you know yeah
i can't i can't accept it because i in my in my heart of hearts i know that we can and should do
better as people but that as people but that has nothing to do with rap or hip-hop as people yes
we need to do better but the hip-hop culture is I'm not gonna separate it from us
But it's his own culture
You know what I'm saying?
It's our people, there's other types of people in hip-hop
But hip-hop is his own culture
And in hip-hop, it just so happens
That there's death that comes with it
I think we all look at things differently
Somebody called earlier
During Get It Off Your Chest
And he was like, when I see somebody with a nice car or nice crib I feel like they
flossing on me right we talked about a story a couple of weeks ago I think
Asian doll was in the club and the girl was like yo I just bought a chain and
her chain was bigger than mine so I wanted hers you know we have to change
our mind frame like when I see somebody doing better than me first of all I
applaud it and a second of all I look at them because I like to see people doing
better like the reason I
follow Swizz, shout out to Swizz, today's his birthday,
happy birthday, Swizz. I follow Timbaland
and Hov and
Diddy and some of those people because
I like to see the moves that they make.
Tyler Perry, because it encourages
me to work harder, encourages me to do the right
thing. It's also Tyler Perry's birthday.
Happy birthday, Tyler Perry. So we have to look
at how we look at other people. We shouldn't
look at them as our competition. We really should be
looking at our people as brothers and
hoping that they can help us get to
that next level. And once again, you're discussing how
things should be. And everything you're saying is
absolutely true, but you can't have it both ways.
Because the reality is success breeds envy and jealousy
too. Same way that y'all think that y'all
inspiring people. Yes, y'all do. But
there are some people who are jealous and envious of you as well and you cannot have one without the other period they
go hand in hand same way you inspiring somebody it's the same way you making another person uh
jealous and envious they both go hand in hand and if that's uh what you're gonna do you just
gotta deal with the consequences of the actions that's it that's the consequence of your success
well i pray to god i inspire more people to work hard.
That's all you can do, brother.
To buy real estate and to get into their mental health.
And I hope that we inspire people to do the correct thing more than the other side.
Because at the end of the day.
You can't pick and choose, though.
You're right.
You can't tell somebody whether to be inspired or be jealous and envious.
And you got people that will walk up to you and shake your hand and tell you that they're inspired,
but the whole time they plotting on you.
That's true.
So the moral of the story for me is, man, once again, situations like this,
we have to discuss how things are, not how things should be.
If you're operating from the perspective of how things should be,
then these things will continue to happen and you're setting yourself up for failure
because we have to start moving and responding to these situations based on what we know to be true, what we want to be true all right well again rest in peace to pmb rock and condolences
again to his his family his friends his girlfriend and child and his loved ones all right the free

I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this.
Well, Donkey of the Day goes to Amy Harrington of Madera Beach, Florida.
What does your uncle, Charla, always tell you about the great state of Florida?
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all, Florida. What does your uncle Sharla always tell you about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida
and today is once
again no exception.
I think you know that I have zero
tolerance for drunk drivers. I believe
drunk drivers should be pointed to the fullest extent
of the law because as I've told you
several times on this radio,
every day of our life we are simply
trying to avoid crazy.
And if you are a human who gets in their car and does all the right things,
puts your seatbelt on, drives the speed limit,
really looks out for other folks on the road, I appreciate you.
And people like that, okay, should not have to deal with the dangers
of a crazy-ass drunk driver.
Now, it's bad enough that people are still, you know, driving drunk in 2022.
I mean, because it's absolutely, positively no are still you know driving drunk in 2022 i mean because it's
absolutely positively no reason to be getting behind the wheel all right when you're drunk
nowadays it's way too many rideshare services to be doing that so once again i have zero remorse
for drunk drivers okay there's not one logical reason someone can give me for driving drunk other
than you were drunk right that's the only reason people get behind the wheel and they're not supposed to because the liquor makes them think they
can and Amy is the latest human to say F it all right throw caution to the wind
and get behind the wheel when she's drunk now I encourage you when scrolling
through social media today or if you are online at any point today go watch this
video of Amy Harrington's stop see amy got pulled over
and had to do some field sobriety tests i'm a person that feels that feels like field sobriety
test bias okay because you can fail a sobriety test by simply being out of shape i mean come
on the one leg stand test i'm 44 and constantly mentally and physically exhausted now you want
me to stand on one leg on command? Even
if I'm not drunk, I might fail that one.
The walk and turn test, where you
gotta take nine steps, heel
to toe. I can't do that either, because
I lack coordination, rhythm, and I don't
follow dance instructions well. So I would fail
that test. Also, when I say I
don't have rhythm, I lack rhythm,
but I'm totally on beat when it
comes to the instrumental playing in my head.
Okay, but what's playing in my head usually isn't what's playing
out loud. So to everyone else, I look
off beat. But to me,
the moral of the story
is those tests aren't easy to do
sober. So they must be impossible to do
drunk. And I guess that's why
Amy Harrington decided to do her
own thing when asked to do one.
Let's go to Inside Edition for the report, please.
If this driver thought her graceful moves were going to get her out of a traffic stop,
she was sorely mistaken.
The Pinellas County Sheriff's Office in Florida recently released this video
of a field sobriety test conducted back in April.
According to a criminal complaint, deputies say 38-year-old Amy Harrington
rear-ended another vehicle,
and when they approached her, she had visual signs of impairment, including glassy eyes.
It also stated deputies smelled alcohol on her breath.
She allegedly refused a breathalyzer, and when trying to administer a field sobriety test,
deputies report she was unsteady on her feet and started to perform ballet and Irish folk dances.
Harrington's moves weren't impressive to deputies who arrested her.
She's pleaded not guilty to driving under the influence,
refusal to submit to testing, and possessing an open container of alcohol.
Now, I don't know what Irish folk dancing is, but it looks ridiculous,
okay? And when you combine that with ballet and being drunk it looks extra ridiculous in her defense she said the police officers sounded like her ballet dancer
didn't i tell y'all that walk and turn test sounds like dance instruction as soon as you tell a drunk
person heel to toe they're gonna say did he say heel toe you start giving a drunk person all those
steps and they start dancing that's your fault for sounding like dj casper well in this case amy said the officer did sound like her ballet coach so that's why she started
doing a little jig the officer even had the nerve to tell her she wasn't good which made her go
harder because she had to prove that i indeed can dance now ultimately she did refuse the breathalyzer
but the officer didn't need it by then right The moral of the story is don't drink and drive.
In this case, please don't drink, drive, and dance.
Please give Amy Harrington the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's.
Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey old college try.
But that's the problem.
She's 38 years old.
She can't be acting like you're in college no more, man.
All right?
I wouldn't say let's play a game, but I know what it is already.
Bro, I said Irish folk dancing.
All right?
Black people don't know how to Irish folk dance? I have a little bit of Irish in me.
Me too.
But no, I don't think we know how to folk dance.
I don't even know what the hell that is.
You know what Irish folk dancing is?
Yeah.
What is it?
That's when you got to.
Show me.
I'm not showing you.
Show me.
No, you started to stand up.
Show me.
That's when you got to go to.
Bro, that's salsa, bro.
How you know him or ring gang?
That's not salsa.
That wasn't no damn Irish folk dance.
That's when your heels hit your ass and you kick it out.
Huh?
That's called a butt kick when you working out.
No, it's not, man.
I don't know what you just did, but you need to start.
This is cultural appropriation.
Well, no, you're Dominican.
That's salsa.
Okay.
Do the Irish folk dance again.
I ain't never seen a yellow leprechaun, bro.
Ever in my life.
Okay, well, McKelvey and Rashawn Casey, you guys should know how to do this.
Do not.
