Yeah, sure, yeah. They've been having water issues for a long time. Hey, bro, I got a quick question for you, man. You ever thought about having your car shown for the Cruising the Coast in Mississippi? In Mississippi? Yeah. I want you

to look up that Cruising the Coast. I think you will love that event, man. They got a lot of old school cars. So they cruise, coast, everything, do a lot of shows. And it was starting October through the second through the ninth. So it was like a whole week event. Okay.

I'm going to look into it. We're trying to do like, you know, four or five a year. I know we did Houston this year. We did Atlanta. We did New Jersey, New York. You know where I think we might go, bro? I think we might do North Carolina, South Carolina, and I think we might do Alabama. I think we might go to those markets, too.

I'm trying to go a little bit of everywhere because people really enjoy themselves. We get a huge turnout, and it's all about family fun. So I might hit those markets, but I'm going to check that definitely out. Yes, sir. Yeah, check it out, man. It's called Cruise in the Coast. Man, you can stay there right now man you can see what i'm talking about it's a lot of people okay a lot of people know about it they travel but i appreciate it what's going on charlie man peace king how you doing brother man just trying to make this money

this morning yes sir all right brother have a good one. Be safe. You too, brother. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Jessica. Hey, Jessica. Get it off your chest. Please, Jessica. Well, what's up, what's up? Good morning, guys. So, I'm in Charleston, South Carolina. 843! Yeah, all day, but I still got my 917 number, y'all. So, I'm an Uber driver.

So, I was on Folly Beach, and my phone plays music automatically. Like, I play a playlist so there's no commercials I like to make it feel comfortable no no offense but four Caucasian people got into my car and I had to take them 28 minutes away it was cool we were driving rock them played trap music them played fall out boy them played I had a range of music Lady Gaga and as soon as Beyonce brown skin girl came on the lady in the back i heard the whisper amongst themselves like who's gonna say it finally somebody was brave enough to come up and say it they was like excuse me could you turn that song

off it's offending me and i was like what that song offending you and she said well it's all about like black girls i'm not black i don't relate to that. I was like, so something that's celebrating my skin is offending you? So what did I do? I started a whole playlist off that doggone song. There you go. And she got all the black power music for all 28 music. Now, wait a minute. All the way to her destination.

Everybody step back from this situation and look at it objectively. Oh, boy. You're an Uber driver. Correct. And when you're an Uber driver, you're playing music because you want people to feel comfortable. Correct. They don't feel comfortable about the song. You don't got to get offended by it.

She can't relate. She's a pale-ass mayonnaise-flavored mammal. Yeah, but it's not that type of song. It's not like saying, you know, F white people. It's not that type of song. Yeah, she's just upset that she don't have that tan. That's all. Well, she goes to the tan.

I'm just mad that all this trap music played. We don't hear drug trap music played we don't hear drug dealer music we don't hear rap we don't hear everything you didn't get offended by nothing because she knows drug dealers she knows drug dealers and she uses drugs she might have she got she might what might mean white ass to her okay oh my goodness she just can't relate what kind of rating did you give her? Oh, no. Listen, I gave her the same rating I usually give everybody else because she didn't rate me no less.

Because she knew she felt stupid after she said it. All right, well, thank you. Because mind you, if you heard the music that I was playing around, I was playing Korn, Fall Out Boy. I was playing all this other stuff in rotation. If anybody knows what that music is, you would know that it was diverse. So get off yourself. And I think you missed a good opportunity to teach too though because you could have just

told her like look this is a ode to to to melanin all right hello who's this hey how's it going fernando good morning what's up man off your chest yes sir how's it going uh i got a quick question for charlamagne man yes sir i didn't you a question. I don't know if somebody ever asked you this, but who's your top three donkeys of all time, and will you ever consider giving a donkey a Hall of Fame? Yeah, I mean, at the end of the year, we do a top five donkeys of the year. I'm going to be honest with you, top donkeys of all time, Donald Trump is definitely in the top three.

I mean, I've given it to him more than anybody, and I'm going to always put myself in the top three. I mean, I've given it to him more than anybody. And I'm going to always put myself in the top three. Because I always say, you know, when you give people the credit, you got to give everybody the credit they deserve for being stupid, including yourself. I don't know who the third one would be, though. Sounds fair. Sounds fair. If y'all want to close, bro, for The Breakfast Club.

Thank you, King. Thank you, brother. All right, have a good one. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. Say it with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you got something on your mind, let it out. Hello, who's this?

Hey, how you doing? It's LG. LG, what up? Get it off your chest, brother. What up, man? I'm a car transporter, man. The way the cars out here, man, they don't respect us, man. You know, when you see a big truck on the road, you know you got to move to the side. Everybody trying to cut us off, not giving us no respect out there on the road, man. Now, I'm going to be honest with you, man.

Lately, I've been feeling like them trucks been driving like they cars. I feel like it's been like that the last few years. They be pulling up. They be cutting over on the side of the road like they driving regular vehicles. Hey, look. The food truck you got, you got to bully your way in out there, man. Nah, y'all too big to be bullying your way in. All right.

You got a Mack truck, bro. You fool around and hit somebody. Hey, look, I ain't even got a Mack truck. I transport cars and everything, so I got a three-car big baby, you know what I mean? No, I don't. But when you try to fool around, you try to get to the side, so, like, don't nobody want to get over. Yeah, I don't like that.

People do try to not let trucks over, and sometimes trucks gotta take that, because people will speed up, drive in your blind spot. So I know that's not an easy thing. I've seen it happen. I've probably done it. Yeah, trucks do the same thing, though. I don't like that.

Y'all got it because y'all already got command of the road. You know what I'm saying? Y'all can really hurt somebody. You can't just swerve over into another lane when you're driving a big-ass Mack truck. Cars got to be careful, too, because cars be disrespectful to them trucks and just hop over and think the truck could just slow down. It goes both ways. It definitely goes both ways.

That's a lot of weight on the road, man. All I'm saying is when you see a truck do business, do what's all respect we deserve. You know what I mean?

Like, we be out here every day with a lot of weight. It's a lot of responsibility. You know what I mean? You in your truck now, brother? You in your truck now? No? You in your truck now? No, I'm actually about to head. I'm heading to work right now to go get my truck.

Alright, I was going to ask you to blow the horn, but alright, thank you, brother. He wants you to blow something. You're always doing that. When I was a kid, that was the coolest thing. We used to drive to Disney back in the day, and you see a truck, you get the truck driver to blow the horn. That was the coolest thing. Okay, okay. Y'all ever did that? Yes. No.

You used to flash them, and you didn't uh show them your your breasts that's right that's in the hockey if you want to signal truckers to blow you do your thing king see y'all always take it too far what y'all take it too far what yeah you never been to disney that's why you never did it hello who's this miss diddy from the d detroit diddy what up though though? Dee Dee from Virginia and Detroit. No, the D. Oh, the D. Dee from Detroit. Dee Dee from the D.

That's Charlamagne, though. You got to be Charlamagne. Dee Dee from the D. What up, Dee Dee? So I want to get it off my chest. Hey, y'all. I am very respectable. I was born in 81, but I am so proud of my mama.

Sorry, mama. My brother and my baby daddy. Everybody, just please leave me alone. It's okay to say no, right? Yes, it is. It's called Boundaries. There's a great book called Set Boundaries, Find Peace by Nedra Tawwab Glover that talks about that. Yes, I am simply just tired of everybody else.

And people, I wish y'all could call them the Breakfast Club with your f***ing app. Like, get out here and do it. I do whatever I need to do. I live in Detroit. I hustle. I survive. Stop begging and get it together. Please. That's all I want to say. And rest in power to Donald Gillespie, my father. I love y'all Breakfast Club. I listen to you every

Listen to Civic Cipher every Saturday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast. First of all, let me just say that I'm always shocked at people's willingness to on real, which I verbalize as because one, it wasn't feeding my soul because it was being misrepresented. It was a white leadership that was outwardly presenting as a show of diverse voices. But the leadership and the decision making about what content was being produced,

et cetera, et cetera, was not being done by people who were even involved in it's not to say that there aren't like white people that are involved in communities outside of whiteness but these people weren't you know what i'm saying so that along with a myriad of other things in terms of like a toxic work environment and just business practices and professional practices that didn't even just affected affect me they affected my makeup team. They affected my glam team. You know, like, they affected my assistant. Like, they affected the other hosts.

Like, it was not just a singular issue. But that is what I said was the reason why I left. And then when this happened and I was like, you know, I think it's interesting that I was left out.

People's argument is, well, I don't know why you thought they would include you. You was talking shit about the show. And's argument is, well, I don't know why you thought they would include you. You was talking about the show. And it's like me holding an employer accountable for behaviors and for practices that are deleterious to the positive work environment of people. There is not being on the show. You know, I never talked about my my co-hosts. I never made it about the actual talent on the show.

I made it about the leadership. And I feel like that's what we need to be doing. When we look at Chris Smalls and him creating this union, you know, in the midst of Amazon, it's not him saying don't order from Amazon. But he's saying like, yo, there needs to be better business practices and we need to be able to challenge and have that. I think some people think because it's TV or whatever it is like how dare you want better for anything like you get to be on TV you get to be glamorous you get to get money by the way I wasn't really getting that money on there but it's really about just saying like why should anybody have to settle for being treated below their worth in any environment and that's how change can happen too.

If somebody speaks out about it and talks about leadership. Which is how they ended up with the Black EP. Because I came out and was vocal, which inspired some of the people who were still remaining on the cast to challenge and say that needs to be in place in order for us to continue to be here. So I think some people just don't f*** with me. And so they're just going to try and come with any reason

to be like, well, I don't know why she... But truthfully, I am, in this particular instance, I'm going to stand on the fact that at the end of the day, if you're going to do a retrospective of the show over the years it's been on and the hosts that have been on it, it don't matter what I say. You are a host on the show.

I will be a host i mean they kind of proved you right you know what i mean no seriously if you're saying that this show wasn't good for my spirit because of x y and z and then they purposely and intentionally leave you out it's like which i have confirmed was the case duh it's obviously like it wasn't like oh we forgot her it's like then people are like oh well she was only there for five minutes i was no i was there for six months three of those months were in a pandemic and i signed a contract i lived out my contract you wasn't with me shooting in the gym at 4 30 a.m going in there to do that you know like it really is incredibly taxing on all parts of your life your personal physical mental etc i'm not complaining about that part

but i'm saying like i committed myself to this and i gave myself to that and i know from the individuals who have taken time to to tell me and i thank all of you i know that i contributed immensely to that space right so like that's what really means the most to me is like i've had so many positive dms and on twitter etc and saying like yo that was screwed up shout out to you like you made the show elevate you you. You were light in the space of this project. And I just hate that folks really don't understand the difference between shitting on something and calling for change. All right. We got more with Amanda Seals when we come back. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.

The Breakfast Club. Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast charlemagne the god angela ye we got our good sister amanda seals here now ye amanda i saw an interview where you said that you actually spoke to a psychic and that helped guide you as far as your education oh yeah my professor yeah professor right so do you still see psychics you know what i haven't since like the first year of the pandemic, but I did see a psychic. And she was the one who told me because I told her I was like, I don't think I want to have kids. And she was like, yeah, in your chart, there's no kids. She had also said that she was like, oh, like your relationship is strong.

Like it's this is not like a flash in the pan. She's right. I mean, who I'm with is who I'm going to be with until one of us die. And I feel like I typically see psychics that are more astrologically inclined than just like I feel like this is going to happen and then that's that. I like

mediums. I like the spirit guides that can talk to you, the ancestors, the spirits around you. I've never done that. The two I've spoken to have been beyond accurate. And you didn't answer about that the two i've spoken to have been beyond accurate and you didn't answer about the safety are you gonna have security with you yeah i mean i always have security just because i'm a woman like in this world so it's not like um i look at it like i need to have a security with the ar-15 but i definitely have security just because we've

always lived in a world that did not protect women i was in sacramento one time and a dude just walked on my stage and it was a little ass stage like it wasn't like somebody hello literally like and my homeboy was there for the sole purpose i know he listening right now i'm talking about you he was there for the sole purpose of the fact that he was about to join us on tour as security wow so he's. He's sitting on the side of the stage. He's eating French fries. And a whole ass man walks down the aisle, up the stairs, and onto my stage.

It was one of these little platform stages. And I'm just like, what's happening right now? The dude is like, yo, I love you so much. I really just want to be with you. Da-da-da-da. I look over, and my nigga is eating French fries. Was he real security or just...

No, he was n***a security. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But at the end of the day... He realized in that moment like most people do when they get on stage. Like, I just ain't feeling it. I didn't know

it was actually gonna happen. I need you to realize that before I'm in danger. You know what I'm saying? When I looked over and he was like, mmm, mmm. Like, I felt like

I could see the salt crystals like dissolving on his tongue as this man stood in front of me. And this man could have done anything to me. Like, he was close enough to where he could have done anything. And the security at the venue also didn't move. So, I finally had to be like, hey, like, what's help? Come on.

So, then people came and took him down. But Homeboy still sat there. And after the show, he was like, I mean, well, what did you want me to do? I didn't identify any danger. And I was like, you know. He got fired before his first day. Correct. Have you ever beefed with a comic over headliner status? You know

that situation is confusing to me because it feels like they were both duped. I don't know if I. It feels like the promoter. Yeah it feels like the promoter duped them. So it feels like it feels very white colonizer behavior where you create the conflict and then you remove yourself from it. You're like, OK, now fight Negroes.

I've never beefed over anything with a comic. Not enough for me to remember right now. You know what I love about the comedy space? You know, people would be like, oh, like you're in comedy. That's so much. That's so difficult. So difficult. I'm like, I come from hip hop.

Like, that was a much harder space. Comedy is a lot more meritocracy. And, you know, if you funny, you funny. I had a moment the other day where I did a show. It was a black show and I bombed. Recently? Yeah. It was my version of bombing.

It was earlier that day. I had gotten some bad news. I was trying to do Smart, Funny and Black as a Juneteenth special. And Smart, Funny, and Black is my live variety game show. I've been touring it since 2016. It actually,

we will have Smart, Funny, and Black dates on the Black Outside Again tour so you can catch us in LA, Detroit, Atlanta. I think I have one here. Kings Theater? Kings Theater!

October 29th? Yes! And we will be at the Kendi Center. So I'm doing a weekend at the Kendi Center 22nd and 23rd. So you can see stand-up.

You can see my podcast live, small doses. And you can see Smart, Funny, and Black. So I've lost my train of thought. You said you bombed. Oh, yeah, I bombed. So I went and I did this show. And that night, I learned that the Smart, Funny, and Black Juneteenth special that I had sold, that we were going to have to walk away.

And we had to walk away because the network that we were selling it to refused to negotiate with us and give us the money that we needed to do the show that we sold them. And it was so frustrating because I felt like I had gotten so close and I knew that we couldn't do this

because it was going to require us to have to ask for favors. And it's so irritating to me that so often with black projects, we have to ask for favors. We have to, you know, eek this shit out. And it's not to say that other projects

don't have the same thing, but this was particularly a Juneteenth project that I was doing in partnership with juggernauts, okay? I was doing this in partnership with Jesse Collins and with Heartbeat. We shouldn't have had to deal with jesse collins and with heartbeat we shouldn't have had to deal with those types of limitations and obstacles because it really should have been

like oh like how can we make this happen and the idea to me of having black creatives work for free on juneteenth yeah you can't show change black creatives i can't for juneteenth special i can't it's completely counterintuitive. But I had to walk away from it. It just broke my heart that I was once again put in that position of having to have having to stand on principles in the face of this predatory capitalist bull. And I hit the stage, hit the stage after that. I love talking to personalities that can do radio and podcast and everything. It makes it so easy. So light.

Thank you. Appreciate it, bro. And it's crazy because I thought I listened to Survivor's Remorse. Yeah. Then a whole other goddamn album dropped. I was like, how this thing got there? How went some change that fast? Oh, man, I'm excited, man. I'm just happy to be here, bro. I'm blessed, you know, to

be able to put this project out, but it's more than just an album. I feel the universe and the energy around it. I really feel like it's a moment of triumph for me when I wasn't even trying to celebrate it. I went through so much recording this project and just so much in life growing as a man.

And this album is a complete reflection, a complete testament of who I am and how I've grown as a man. You know what I'm saying? Right. Now, I was going to ask you, you know, you had two kids, and I've been seeing your video of your kids beating you up.

Three now, three now, man. Three all together. That's right. I was going to ask, you know, how has that changed you? I always say, like, the happiest I'm going to ever be is just hanging with my kids. You know what I'm saying? Especially when I got all three of them in the house together, man. It's perfect.

You feel what I'm saying? And your son, the only thing I'm thinking as I'm walking here for real, and I knew y'all was going to ask me something about my kids, and the reason why I go so hard and why it's so important, because the time that I spend away from my kids got to mean something, man. You feel what I'm saying? I'm really sacrificing time away from my kids,

not seeing them for this. You feel me? So it got to mean something. It got to work. You know, it got to work for me. It got to work for them because that's the foundation that I'm laying. You feel what I'm saying?

And my kids don't know they Daddy G Herbo for real. Like, he'll sign, though, because everybody, you know, we'll be walking in the airport or something and people like hey yo son hey he's a celebrity how do you know my name he's five he don't really understand he asked me now like daddy am i famous i'll be wanting to tell him no but then i'll be like you feel me but then i'll be like yeah put some more you're my bias yeah, yeah. It's different, man. Just having them around other kids and stuff, they treat them like a celebrity, but I'm saying that to say I want all my kids to have foundation, balance, you feel me? So it got to mean something.

Me moving fast, I be on the road so much and worry about money, and you don't even realize you really raising your kids a certain way. You feel what I'm saying? I don't want my kids to grow up how I grew up for one, but I don't want to grow up just like an industry kid or like, you know what I'm saying? I want my kid to grow up regular, man. I want him to just have his innocence. You feel me? That's charismatic and freedom to just be them.

All my kids, you feel what I'm saying? And that's important. So and I always used to say that I got to go hard. Well, I could have the freedom to take a year off for real, like a real year to just travel and be with my family. You know what I'm saying and that's important so and I always used to say that I gotta go hard well I could have the freedom to take a year off for real like a real year to just travel and be with my family you know I'm saying like I always been wanted to be that type of type of artist to have it because I feel like I ain't gonna be able to raise my kids right if I'm just focused on yeah sounds on the album too does he understand that how did he react he was uh he called me on facetime he called me first he's like daddy it's your birthday i'm like yeah it's my birthday he said i didn't miss it said no he said

i was so scared i was gonna miss your birthday it just dropped your birthday just dropped but your birthday just came out and he was um he listened to the song he was listening to um me on the um tv and he turned around like It's just crazy that he really understand it. You feel what I'm saying? He's seeing it now. He a fan of the music. He don't just listen to my music. He just a fan of music and the culture.

You know what I'm saying? But I noticed that, and that's why I don't whoop my kids. I just let them. How I grew up, that's why I'm so smart now. I was exposed to so much. You feel what I'm saying? You got to still expose your kids to things so we could learn. Like I feel like there's knowledge that my son growing and I'm just be able to like polish it all up just by talking to him.

You know, I'm going to be honest with all my kids. You feel what I'm saying? And that's how they're going to structure that foundation because that's how I got it. My parents was just honest with me, brutally honest. We saw you in a protective father mode. When was that? When you was out with your child and somebody was being a little too pushy?

Yeah, the crew league I was just trying to like you know I'm cool I'm friendly you feel what I'm saying but I would just be trying to like it ain't really that

you know because a lot of times people be trying to go viral and I was stopping it right then because had it been something that would have offended me

it would have went all the way to a whole nother level so people thought I was joking but I wasn't mad and I was joking, but I wasn't mad. And then I was just showing them like, don't play.

Especially when you're with your kids. Absolutely. You can't even play while with nobody that I care about, especially my kids. So I just wanted to just let, like, just draw that line right there. Now you talked about wanting to maybe take a year off, if you felt like it,

and be able to take a break. But last year, I know you went through a lot. So how was it for you to be able to get back to work last year i know you went through a lot so how was it for you to be able to get back to work and how did you deal during that time um it was a lot i don't lie and i went to a real slump i would say it was depression but you know like i like we say another day we wouldn't call it depression we had things that you know it's cool like all right it's just a tough patch in my life but really being depressed when i when my little brother died out of the whole year i don't even think i had a whole month sober like i'm in total days like i was drinking literally every day i wake up drinking i'm drinking going to work

doing interviews besides having fun ain't nobody never see me at no end like oh herb was drunk yeah alcohol he can't work i was stugging through it it was hard it's tough to you know go through that and be honest with yourself i'm knowing every day like man i'm drinking too much you feel me you know how that feel to be like i'm drinking you feeling like you're an alcoholic but you still drinking that's because you want to be able to get through the day and it was tough you know and i got discipline at the end of the day and that's crazy i got a discipline i have addictive personality where i can snap out of something so quick and snap in so quick, you feel what I'm saying? When I want to do something that's cool,

can't nobody tell me that my girl, my mama, everybody, I'm like, I'm just drinking, you feel what I'm saying? Because I was depressed

and I felt like I had to go through it a certain way on my own, you feel me? Even though I got everybody around me trying to help me and push me through this, you know how it go when you stubborn,

you feel what I'm saying? It can't nobody, I don't have to listen to nobody, you feel me? I got my own money, my own career, my own cause, I'm just? It can't nobody. I don't have to listen to nobody, you feel me? I got my own money, my own career, my own cause. I'm just doing what I want to do. But at the end of the day, it's taking away so much, you feel me? My daughter was, and we joke about it now.

When my daughter was born, bro, I was drunk in the delivery room. Sleep drunk. I really went into a real depression when my little brother got killed, you feel me? How'd you get out of it, though? You're still in it, bro. Yeah, I'm still in it, but like I said, I just snap out

because I know, I'm like, man, I can't keep drinking like this. You feel what I'm saying? I can't keep... I just got to snap out of it, you know, and it's crazy. As soon as my daughter was born,

I started to get a little more disciplined. You feel what I'm saying? Just a little more, and that's all you need, just a little more to just be better tomorrow than you was,

you feel what I'm you was the day before. I'm still battling with it for sure. You know what I'm saying? But I'm cool. You feel me? You had two sons first. And so how is having a daughter different now? It's so different.

I'll be saying, I'll be joking a lot. It's like, I feel like I'm scared of my daughter. She only four months. Nah, I got four of them. So it's only going to get worse. Yeah, it's like, as soon as I hear everything about her, so delicate, you know, you're afraid. With my sons, I just, it's cool.

I'm afraid to hold her a certain way. So when she started crying, I'm just like, huh, fix it. I just don't want her to cry, you know what I'm saying? That's crazy. That's how I know our relationship going to be. I just want to do whatever she needs. You feel me? Whatever she want me to do, I'm going to do it.

I can just tell just by the relationship that we got already she's sassy like she she works you feel i'm saying like she's super she'll control you she gonna control me that's right i can't wait i just want to do whatever she tells me all right we got more with g her but when we come back don't move it's the the Breakfast Club.

Listen to Crooks everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with G Herbo.

Charlamagne, why was it important for you to, like, start showing the world your scars and your trauma? You know, it was important for me because I was helping other people that's like me. You know what I'm saying? And that's, like, that's a fault, too. You know, that's one of my flaws because I actually want people to think like me you know i'm saying and that's like that's a fault too you know that's one of my flaws because i actually want people to think like me say for instance i was an og where i come from well nobody be really giving me the sauce and pouring all the knowledge and everything

that they have into me for me to be better than them i really want everybody around me to be better sometimes they think i'm tweaking like you preaching to me you want me to do this or you know sometimes you don't even want to open up and tell people because it hurts you. Like, I'm trying to give you the game. I'm trying to give you the sauce. You feel me? Like, that's something that's always been important to me. Music, I'm just trying to be myself.

You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't really go in a studio and be like, I need to make a song to make me turn up. Or I need to look good for my fans. You know, I'm just trying to just get through the day for real. You feel what I'm saying? And that's why it's easy for me to just open up and be vulnerable with my music sometimes i don't even want it to you feel me because i don't take nothing personal people take it personally sometimes my music i might be talking about something that i went through with my mom my mom ain't finna get offended that i said something you know i'm saying like other people might get

offended about something you're saying but at the end of the day it's a form of therapy I go to the studio and sometimes I know the song ain't even to come out But I just want to get it off my chest We meet doing that people who look up to me like I they get it he going through this So he talking about this this way and like we just said the the mental effects boom and Anthony Hamilton said like Everybody don't got the same story, but we relate in a lot of ways. We go through the same things. You feel what I'm saying? So that's why I be trying to do it, because I know if I just let it all out there, it's going to help somebody in some type of way.

Somebody don't relate to it. You feel me? It ain't even about me, bro. After I dropped my album, I ain't even want to say this. You feel what I'm saying? But when the first A$AP dropped, it was just me and Nick in the studio me and my engineer and I cried tears because it ain't about the music it's like no I'm really here I did something I completed something that I was trying to complete while I was going through a lot of stuff you feel me like that's what was important to me that's why I'm

gonna talk about it through my music because I want people to know like I'm human and you should man you know it's so interesting it's like you know you you were at the mental wealth expo this weekend I thank you for you know pulling up because when you see those young people in the audience it's one thing to hear me talking about things i hear all of those like you know psychiatrists and therapists talking about things but when they see g herbal 20 something years old successful rapper just bearing it all and letting people know like yo you go through things too that makes them want to get on their healing journey super early. It make you want to turn up.

That's right. I can't be sitting here just depressed, drowning in my thoughts. You feel what I'm saying? Because I'm smoking it away, drinking it away. Smoking it away. You feel me? Because it's easy to do that. But at the end of the day, it's even better when you just, like,

you take that and turn it in fuel and get on your grind and make you, like, appreciate the pain. And you have the nonprofit, too, right? Yeah, Swerving Through Stress. Swerving Through Stress. All right. So what's going on with that? Swerving Through pain. And you have the nonprofit too, right? Yeah, Swerving Through Stress. All right, so what's going on with that? Swerving Through Stress. Because I know that's important to you. Yeah, super important.

Swerving Through Stress. I partner with my homie McKinley, Project Swish. Swerving Through Stress, for me, it started, it was supposed to be like a mental health hotline. You know, we just started to get a number to like 100 kids, 150 kids. But when we launched it, it probably was like, what, like 5,000, 10,000 people signed up for it instantly. So I knew like it's for real. You know what I'm saying?

We got the facility. We own the facility back at home. And we about to really have like therapists there like five days a week. You feel what I'm saying? Like arts, engineering, videography, trade, swerving through stresses, being able to navigate through life, and we're giving you the tools to be able to do that, you feel what I'm saying? Because we're not saying it's going to be easy.

Life is going to be hard. It's going to be tough. But at least we're going to give you the resources to be able to, you know what I'm saying, take it and build something from it, you feel what I'm saying? It's hard when you're going through stuff and you don't have no opportunity.

It's tough when you're in the streets, you don't got no food, no family no nothing you know i'm saying like it's hard when you have that and then you have nothing to look forward to we're gonna give y'all something to look forward to you feel me and i'm gonna do my all to bring resources back you know i'm saying to to chicago you feel me how early on did you arrive at the place where you wanted to start your healing process i think i really started for real probably around like when my son was first born when your son was born like 2018 um i was going through something i was fighting a case in chicago you know and that was like covert for me

for real when i was fighting that gun case in chicago i couldn't move i couldn't travel i didn't do no shows for a year like nothing and behind the scenes it was real real stressful ain't nobody really know nothing that i was going through like right before covid hit as soon as i beat the case and i was able to travel i probably was able to do shows for like two or three months and covid hit and it was like really i didn't did like two years without nothing you feel i'm saying did you have good savings or something like i was definitely saving my mind i was still making and that's the credit residual you you feel me? So I always been making money, but I wasn't making show money.

I wasn't making ancillary money, but I was always making residual money, you feel me I'm saying? But at the end of the day, it was still tough because I still got to pay employees. I got to still pay my bills. You feel me? I still got to pay security, be safe. I'm still doing all the things necessary to remain G Herbo while I'm behind the scenes. I'm going through so much.

My fans ain't know I couldn't do no shows. My fans ain't know I couldn't see them. Nothing. I didn't do a show for it. Y'all couldn't leave Chicago. I was stressed out. You probably got people around you like, man, we about to go rob. Man, that shit was like a dark cloud over me, bro.

I didn't want to be there at all, but I had to. You feel what I'm saying? And I went through it, though. It was cool. You feel like me and my girl was at the worst. I was so mad. I was depressed. I couldn through it though it was cool you feel like me and my girl was at the worst I was so mad I was depressed I couldn't do nothing but just be stuck in Chicago

you feel what I'm saying that was tough but I'm saying that to say and I'm glad people can hear me saying that because it's always

light at the end of the tunnel you know what I'm saying and being an artist it'll make you mad to go into a slump like you feel me a lot of people

can't really survive going through a whole year really two years now you bring it down like that? Because you said COVID was right after that. COVID hit right after. You feel what I'm saying? And it really just built character. My discipline was on a whole

another level after that. Were you able to record during all that time? That's all I was doing was recording. That's all I was doing was recording music. And I just came up with so many songs. That's all I was doing was recording music that whole time. Literally, some of them songs I recorded then, like, still songs that I'm putting out to this day. All right, we got more with G Herbo. When we come back, don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ and me, Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with G Herbo. Yee.

You think that people don't respect the Chicago music scene the way that they should? I was just at that Chella's birthday party, my girl Chella. And I seen Sasha Gohard was there. Katie got bands. You was there. But you guys have a lot of great artists. But Charlamagne, you guys can have this discussion about the whole Chief Keef thing that went viral. And so what are your thoughts on that?

You think people aren't giving you guys the credit? It's about accountability, too. I'm not even going to say people not giving us the credit. We're not really laying our mark the way we're supposed to. You feel what I'm saying? I'm just saying that because I feel like we just need to unify more. And that's what makes other cities stick out. And I ain't even going to say that we don't get the respect because people see it.

They just waiting on us to go crazy. Like, Katy got a song with Nicki Minaj right now. You feel me? We always had the respect that we deserve. But we just got to, like, own it. I feel like Chicago's always gotten their credit music-wise, though. I've never looked at Chicago. Music-wise, we always got our credit.

Like, everybody from our generation to the generation before, we always got our flowers in Chicago, you know? I just feel like we never really capitalized off of it because we not together. How did something like that happen? I don't know. I really don't know man what you think jb you gotta tell me you'll be you'll be spending that knowledge when you say stuff like come on jb i think what we really need to to unify is i think oh geez yeah we need better execs you know i think yeah exactly a lot of times these kids go on their own and they are because of the trauma. It's hard for them to trust.

The difference in what Herb has is that he has execs that have been around the business that can help him and let him see what he needs to actually see in order for him to grow. And I think that as we continue to do that with all these kids and more execs come along, I think that you'll begin to see how we can grow as a community in the business. Now, let's have the Chief Keef combo, because I think what people got misconstrued. I never said Chief Keef wasn't influential. Yeah. I said that the four most. I know exactly what you said.

Yeah, I said the four most influential rappers of all time is Pac, Jay, Wayne, and Kanye. And then Nyla was like, well, you gotta put Chief Keef in there. And I was like, well, I wouldn't put Chief Keef in there at all because Chief Keef influenced the sound in a region. Not saying he's not influential. I just don't think he's one of the four most influential rappers of all time. No, see, look, and we both got

confused with it. That's what I meant when I was saying it. It's a sound. He influenced the sound in a generation of kids that, and even though Sosa is a global superstar, but even if he wasn't just what he did and how he touched so many people and turned them into global superstars, that's what I meant. Like you, this influence is crazy.

You know, he's never done an overseas show. Never. Because I don't think he can leave. I know Sosa ain't performed in Chicago in like eight years. He could sell out two United Centers right now.

I know he will. Like people got to understand he that big with still like everything like I'm seeing hiccups the stuff that you go through behind the

scenes and you just make it look good. You feel what I'm saying? Like a lot of us not really able to reach our full potential because we go through

so much. You know what I'm saying? And I don't I don't I can't tell you personally what he going through or what he may went through why he not able to go tour out the country you know i can't go to out the country right now you feel i'm saying but i'm just saying that to say you don't know what nobody going through behind the scenes and you just

trying to like be the best version of yourself but i ain't gonna lie i respect you bro you always been just solid you know i'm saying and it's hard to recognize solid people that just like gonna speak they mad you know and it started a conversation it started controversy because it make you think solid people gonna say stuff that make other people think you know i'm saying it like we need it but you see how you see it generationally though you see how clearly he influenced the whole generation and a whole generation be like no that's our guy what you know everybody was trending for three days. It broke the internet.

It broke the internet, bro. Sosa made everybody get dreads. He made everybody rock true religion. Like, he had that Kanye effect on our generation. For real. But Wayne will say,

he caused the whole generation to get dreads. Yeah, he will. And 2 Chainz will say, I caused the whole generation to start wearing true religion. Or Jim Jones. You know what I mean?

But I seen it, though. I ain't like Wayne did do that. Like, he started making street dudes. I seen like real street dudes start getting like lip pierced when Wayne did that in Chicago. I know that was unheard of. You know what I'm saying?

Do you have a relationship with Wayne? I know he's your favorite. Yeah, he's my favorite like all the time for real. That's why I say he's one of the foremost influencers? Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.

You know, I hollered at him a few times. I mean, I hollered at him like, you know what mean, I let him, like, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, now and then. But I really just, I got to connect for real, for real with him. Yeah, we close to getting something. Nah, I really got to get with him for real. Like, that's when I really, I'm going to feel like I made it when I get that.

No lying. When I get a song with Wayne, just me and Wayne in the studio working, I'm going to really feel like it's that. Speaking of another Chicago artist that has inspired a whole generation, Juice Yeah, how was it the right letter the juice work? I was One of them days is in the studio Drinking what when I'm vulnerable and I open up I got to be by myself for real especially when I'm talking about real stuff like I just be like Me and my engineer knows like late and the song came on it

I just started to think about I'm like nothing just make this song about Juice and see if I can do it. Sometimes I challenge myself. It was like I wanted to do auto-tune. You know, I was just in my thoughts for real. Like, that's why at the end, I just started talking. Like, I really felt like I was talking to him for real. You know what I'm saying? Juice, that's like, it be still.

Like, it don't really hit home all the time. Like, trying to just, you know, face the reality of him not really being alive that's the one person I feel like I really been in denial about him being dead since you know I'm saying

since it happened it'd be hard you feel me like to acknowledge especially when you gotta see his face all the time you gotta hear his music

you know what I'm saying it'd be hard to really like acknowledge it you know what I'm saying so I guess me making that song was just like trying to holler at him

you know what I'm saying you said you said i miss your soul made my heart cold but now i'm hot at you yeah like describe those range of emotions man made me mad bro like for real like i couldn't fathom him not being here you know i'm saying that him not his journey was so the upscale was just so big for him it It just, it ain't even about music. Just him being a real pure, that was a real pure soul for real, bro. Like a real good dude.

You know what I'm saying? Like, we ain't supposed to lose nobody like him. You feel what I'm saying? Like, the world really needed little bro, you know?

And that's what I meant by that. Like, really, he know, like, we used to have the conversation right now. He know I'm real mad about, you know what I'm saying,

about that. Just the way it happened? Yeah, the way it happened. Just him not being here him not being here you feel i'm saying what i mean is fighting his demons alone he didn't have to do that you know i'm saying like and we think you know like i said we artists we on the road we having fun we making money you would think getting high like it's normal you know people we be smiling we go through so we smile and still laugh and acting regular getting high you would think somebody getting high because they just want to get high. Really getting high because he really, like, hurt.

Some people, like, get high to just be cool. Some people really need it, for real. Like, a person who going through something is going to be the toughest when they in a room by theyself. It's cool for me to smile and hang out with y'all while I'm here. We chilling, you know what I'm saying? But when I'm in a room by myself, that's when I'm in my thoughts you feel me so I feel like that's a dangerous type of person a dangerous person to be to take on so much and when they get by theyself in the room in they thoughts that's when you know like who a person is for real I'm saying it and that's what I mean like

he ain't have to be that person you feel me He had too many people around him that loved him. You know? And I just want to open up and say that because I know now, I ain't going through nothing by myself. You feel me? It is what it is. I don't care if people could look at me crazy or whatever. I'm just going to open up about what I'm going through because I can't go through nothing.

I used too many people that depend on me for me to feel like I'm alone. You feel me? I'm going to build the support around me before I feel like I'm alone you feel me like i'm gonna build the support around me before i feel like i'm alone yeah i saw you say that in complex you talked about your depression and you say you don't even know the support that you have until you open up and say something but i'm like damn juice world was super open in this music like you could listen to juice's music and he was telling you he was going through things so like nobody reached out or like um yeah i used to talk to liberal all the time about like and it'd be like

even like not too personal like the smallest thing bro some somebody going through with a girl or want to have a conversation with a mom or a friend or anybody you know just the pressure having so many people around you all the time you feel me like those be the little things that really drive people off the lens it don't even really be like the super super deep it's every day that you're not really able to open up and say what it is because the people around you you supposed to be able to open up to them too if i'm around you every single day you feel me like i supposed to be able to talk to you i i feel like as artists we like ignore that you feel me like and then we be thinking like all right it's cool we just getting how we having. And it just pick up.

Like, it take a toll on you, bro. Like, you feel what I'm saying? I could just be moving on the go, on the run so much. And then just me being tired. You know what I'm saying? I can faint, pass out, anything. Just not saying I'm tired. You feel me?

Like, we need to be able to say, sometimes, like, as an artist, you don't even want to say you tired. Word up. I'm tired, man. Word up. I need to go to sleep for a whole day. You feel me? We need it. My man David McCullough, he said at the Mental Wealth Expo Saturday, he said how many of y'all wake up

and don't feel rested? I'm like, damn. I never even thought about it. You wake up and you still don't feel rested. That's crazy. You can't even turn your mind on. It get like that, bro. It's G Herbo. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day. That's what it's from. Charlamagne the devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club.

Yes, donkey of the day goes to John Dempsey. Who is John Dempsey? John Dempsey was a top executive with Estee Lauder. Okay, you know the makeup company Estee Lauder. John Dempsey was a senior executive there. In fact, he was the executive group president. I don't know what that means, but it sounds important. Either way, he was told by Estee lauder that he must leave the company this week after he shared material on his instagram account that does not

reflect the values of the estee lauder companies that damn social media strikes again all right the problem with social media is your page is probably boring if it reflects the values of the company you work for all right nobody wants to follow a basic boring page that's reflecting its company's values we want to be entertained by any means necessary and that's what this senior executive at estee lauder john dempsey did yesterday uh he chose entertainment over estee lauder see john got fired because he posted a meme the meme was sesame street themed what do you mean uncle charlie was sesame street. It was a mock cover of a little golden book. It had Big Bird on the cover with a mask on, sitting next to Snuffleupagus sick in bed. And the title said, and I'm quoting the title,

My nigga Snuffy done got the rona at a Chingy concert. Now, for us regular folks, that's just a regular day on social media, just a regular meme. But John Dempsey is 65 years old and he's a 65 year old white man who works at Estee Lauder. Let's unpack this. As my therapist would say now, I like funny. OK, I guess some might even say I have a sick sense of humor. I appreciate people who can find the funny in any and everything. But here's the thing about that meme it wasn't even funny to me at least maybe i don't get the joke i didn't understand it sesame street big bird snuffle

luffagus chingy concert covid my nigga stuffy then got the rona at a chingy concert what does that even mean okay i don't see the correlation at all that's the first problem the second problem is john dempsey's apology i can't say whether his apology was sincere or not i'm sure he's apologetic but it was the reasoning he said i am terribly sorry and deeply ashamed that i hurt so many people when i made the horrible mistake of carelessly reporting a racist meme without reading it beforehand okay i don't need to hear anymore if you didn't read the meme beforehand john then what did you even post it for was it for the picture did you think big bird in a mask sitting bedside while snuffle luffagus was

sick was such a compelling picture that the world needed to see it who doesn't read memes before they post them envy have you ever read a didn't read a meme before you posted it no angelie have you ever not read a meme before you posted it nope anybody in this room have they ever done that no nobody does that there are certain rules in life one must follow okay like you know you can't bring liquids through tsa you know you shouldn't feed gremlins after midnight well mogwai after midnight all right you don't say candy man three times in a mirror and never ever ever post a meme without reading it nobody does that okay we all post memes because we've read them okay that's the whole point of posting a meme because we've read it and we like them and they either motivated us, enraged us or made us laugh. So we share those meme with our followers so that our followers can feel the way that we do.

John, you knew exactly what you was doing and I would have respected you more if you said, hey, I just thought it was funny. OK, I didn't know any better. All right. And I thought the N word was used in context. All right. I didn't think it was racist. I didn't know any better. All right. And I thought the N word was used in context. All right. I didn't think it was racist. I didn't personally say it. It's all types of other things you could have said. It was on a meme. All right. That right there would have opened up a discussion, a debate. But to say you didn't read the meme. Nobody believes that. Now, Estee Lauder must have, you know, heard your excuse and said, oh, well, I can do you better. All right. You didn't read the meme before you posted it.

Well, they released a statement that said John Dempsey wasn't fired, but rather was told he had to leave the company and agreed to retire this week. Now, I should give you a donkey today for that. What's the difference between getting fired and getting told to leave the company? You're not giving me any other options. right that's what you tell somebody you don't got to go home but you have to get the hell out of her see what i did there the chingy her her covid says me all right all right tough crowd please give john dempsey the biggest hee-haw. And I was going to just ignore this, but I just have to say, for Candyman, it's five times, not three. Oh, it's five? Yeah.

I thought it was three times. It just bothered me. I was like, I was going to let it slide, but I just had to, you know. I didn't know. I thought it was three times. Candyman. Okay. Well, why Chingy, though? That's what I'm saying.

None of this makes sense. I didn't understand the meme. None of it makes sense. I didn't understand the meme. None of it makes sense. The meme didn't make any sense. There was absolutely no reason to post that meme. It wasn't even funny. Poor Chingy, minding his business. Minding his damn business.

Minding his business. It's over there somewhere. You know what I'm saying? Damn, Chingy. Like, that had nothing to do with nothing. I didn't get it. He responded. So now you done lost your job.

He was making $10 million a year. What? A year. A year. A year? He was making $10 million. See, I would have said I got hacked. I'm not going down for that.

Yeah, he got hacked. I got hacked. He's not that savvy. I've never heard that. I've never heard nobody say that. I would have been like, can someone help me get my account back? Yeah, I would have been the same.

He could have just said he thought it was in context. He didn't think it was racial. He just thought it was funny. That's what he should have leaned on. It was like, I didn't know I couldn't post a meme. And the N word wasn't even spelled out on the meme. You had the stars.

That's what I'm saying. I thought you said it. Should he have gotten fired, you think? No. I don't, actually. I really don't. I don't think he should have gotten fired for that. Damn. I don't. Nah, I wouldn't I don't think you should got in private hey I don't know I wouldn't know all right well thank you for that donkey

today they were tired of him yeah they were tired they were tired of him that was something yeah there's an excuse to you and he's been there for a long time ten million paid a lot of money yes because I would have said my account got hacked out I said that I didn't know I said except or they said nice people I don't know how to win a nice people? It was literally like N star star star A. I mean, he could have used a better excuse than I didn't read the meme. That's all I'm saying. I'm with you.

And by the way, I'm not going to sit here and say if he should have got fired or not. That's not my call to make. Okay. He gave me half his salary. I had to help him out. All right. Well, thanks for that donkey to do. Donkey today.

All right. What's next? what are we talking about i don't know you guys were discussing i had an idea i mean i was talking about this reddit post that this guy did um he said that he was flying on a 12-hour flight from japan back to the united states where he's from and he was his wife. He ended up getting an upgrade from economy into first class. It's a 12 hour flight. And he left his wife in economy. And so he was asking people, do you think that was wrong of me?

Because his wife is mad and called him an a-hole for doing that. And so people were saying they would be extraordinarily upset. But he was saying he didn't think it mattered. And he did not choose business class over her he said that she's just jealous and what was he supposed to do not get this free upgrade it's a 12-hour flight you were going to be asleep the whole time anyway so was i it's not like we would be talking right all right so let's talk about it 800-585-1051 right you work with your spouse your wife right yeah about y'all get on the flight.

Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts it's topic time call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about a story that Yee has read on Reddit. Where did you read the story? Yeah, this guy was asking people, is he an a-hole? His wife said that he is and they were on a 12-hour flight going from um japan to the united states for vacation he thought they would be sitting next to each other but then he got upgraded to first class and his wife didn't have that opportunity she didn't have the miles for it and so she's mad that he the way she looks at it shows business class over her yeah And she's absolutely right to be mad.

You don't do that. That's your wife. You know what I'm saying? You ride, you ride. You know how back in the day they say you leave with the people that you came with? That's the way I look at that. If both of us can't sit in first class, then neither one of us is going to sit in first class. That's your wife.

That's not your friend. He said that he was like, I'm not going to miss my opportunity to sit in business class. And my eyes are just a 12-hour flight, and it doesn't matter if I sit next to my wife or not. Just a 12-hour flight? Yeah, right. I bet you had a bed up there and all kinds of stuff. If anything, let her sit in first class. I will say this, though.

That's happened to me before. Not 12-hour flight, though. You know, smaller flights. And sometimes my wife would be like, look, you're taller than me. You need the leg room. You sit up there. And I sit, you know, and she'll sit and doubt the comfort. But there's times when I'd be like, nah, babe, you sit first class.

And I sit in the back, like recently. You know what I mean? It doesn't matter. But a 12-hour flight. And there's a bed that lays down. A bed that lays down. They probably give you sundaes where you get to choose your toppings. My wife in the back.

Ah, man, I'm going to look for an older black woman on the flight. And I'm going to say, ma'am, you can take my seat. And I'm going to sit in the back. Okay. You want to know what I would do? What would you do? I would take it. And I would say, in six hours, let's switch.

I doubt that. I would. And this is what I would hope for. I would go first. I would hope that he would be asleep. He's lying, y'all. So that by the time I go back there, he would be sad. I'd be like, I didn't want to wake you up.

The bull face lie. We've watched Angelina leave her significant other back in the day. He was definitely not my significant other. Whoever you was with, to go sit next to Jay-Z and Michael Kaiser out of basketball. You was on a date, Yee. You was definitely on a date. He was not my significant other. It was a date, though.

So? Like, Jesus. He ain't my man. See what I'm saying? Like, so? That's different. We're talking about somebody you're in a relationship with. That's a whole different scenario. Me and my wife would do that, too. We would talking about somebody you're in a relationship with. That's a whole different scenario.

Me and my wife would do that, too. We would think about doing that. You got the six. I got the next six. We would think about that. And let me tell you, if he went first, I would set my alarm for exactly six hours. I'd be right there. By the way, this is not even hypothetical for me.

This has happened. I'm like, no, you sit in first class. Guess what? My wife didn't want to sit in first class. She's like, no, I'm sitting where you sit. And it would be vice versa. Like, no, you don in first class. Guess what? My wife didn't want to sit in first class. She's like, no, I'm sitting where you sit. And it would be vice versa. Like, no, you don't do that. Like, it's not even a discussion.

Like, I'll use these points another time. Right now, me and my wife, we together. We're going to sit together wherever on this plane. Well, it's not points. They just upgrade you automatically. Whatever it was, I'm not doing that. That's corny. I'm not going to lie.

That's like, wow. All right, well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello gonna lie that's like that's like wow all right well let's go to the phone lines hello who's this it's tj man what's up y'all tj what up man what you doing so tj you flying from i don't know let's say uh dubai right long ass flight right or africa let's say africa africa's a let's say an 18 hour flight they say sir i'm upgrading. I can only upgrade you, not your wife. 18 hours. You get the bag, the comforter, the pillow, the big screen, your wife in the back. What you doing? Hey, man, you laying it on thick, bro.

Like, I called up and I was like, man, I can't do that to my wife. Your wife, see, don't run. Man, don't listen to Envy. That's going to be hurting. It's a whole bag. You can put your Timbs off and just relax. That's a whole bag. They got a Michelin chef serving food. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I don't want the headache from her. You don't want the smoke later on? Absolutely not. Now, if she said babe, if she said babe, you go sit in the front. If she said babe, you go sit in the front. What you doing? If she decides she wants to go? No, she said babe, you could go sit in the front.

All I need is the confirmation that it's okay for me to go. No, that's not okay. That's a trick. It's a setup. That's like her telling you, yeah, go ahead. You got a hall pass. Go sleep with another woman. Don't do that.

That's like cockroaching Theo when they was arguing about going into Dance Mania or whatever the hell the thing was called. And he said, Theo, go. And he said, no, you go. Theo, you go. And he thought that he was going to say Theo, you go in the last time. And Cockroach went in. No! That's Cosby's reference for all the young people out there. Hello, who's this?

There's only going to be one or two things happening in the back. What's your girl in the back? A foot massage. Alright, alright. There's only going to be

one or two things happening in this case. Go ahead. It's either my wife was taking that seat or I was standing in the back of my wife. Simple. Simple as that. I'm going to explain to her what's going on. This is what they offer you. We're trying to have this experience. No? Alright. So we're going to sit right here

and, you know what I mean? Take this flight. Alright, well, I'll tell you how it is. I'm not giving up that seat. Me and my wife So we're going to sit right here and, you know what I mean? All right.

We're going to hang it. We're going to be in the economy together. By the way, I've been in that situation. 12 hours? It's been, I mean,

from like LA to maybe, I think it was LA to New York flight. And I told my wife, take the first class flight. And she was like, no, I want to see what you in the economy. I would never do that.

Well, you know, nobody wants to sit with me anyway because I'm sleeping the whole 12 hours. I don't care. I sleep the whole flight. I'm going to let my wife take that first class flight and she was like, no, I want to see what you in economy. I would never do that. But you know what? Nobody wants to sit with me anyway because I'm sleeping the whole 12 hours. I don't care. I sleep the whole flight. I'm going to let my wife take that first class.

We're going to sleep together. It's not even about talking or nothing. It's just about us being each other, us being with each other. Like, you know, we're going to be together in first class.

We're going to be together in economy. That's just how it goes. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way, Yeezy. Yes. And since we're talking

about flights uh we'll tell you about somebody who says that they were physically assaulted ahead of getting on their flight i hope this causes an argument between you and gear later i hope she has flashbacks it's gonna be a part two of this book that actually happens a lot because we um we travel a lot so sometimes they'll only be one first class seat so she'll take the first class seat or sometimes she's like babe you take it you you DJ last night. I know you're tired. You take it. So it depends.

I mean, we don't care about that. What if somebody take a selfie with Gia in economy and then take a picture of you in first class and be like, look at this f***ing Envy in first class while I'm with his wife in economy?

Envy's like, I'm not insecure. I'm not insecure. I see insecurity all over your face. I see you thinking about that right now. I'm not insecure. I'm not insecure. I see insecurity all over your face. I see you thinking about that right now. I'm not insecure. There's stuff like that that's not positive. That's my wife, my lady, my queen. But if you go back to check on her and she fell asleep and her head is leaning on the guy's shoulder.

And it's Maxwell. He also. First of all, Maxwell would never be in economy. There was only one seat left. There was only one seat left. She sits next to Maxwell. And now her head is next to Maxwell. What if Maxwell only decided to sit in economy because he saw a gear back there in economy.

That played too much. He was like, you know what? Somebody else take my first class seat. I want to trade. What if he walked back there and then toasting and having drinks and laughing. Laughing it ass off. You were in first class trying to sleep. What if you walk back there and they're toasting and having drinks and laughing? Laughing the ass off. You're in first class trying to sleep. All you hear is, ooh, and laughter.

What you going to do? What you going to do? And they're sharing a blanket. See, y'all go too far. Y'all go too far. No, that's funny as hell. Maxwell goes, ooh, and then under the blanket goes blanket goes, ha, ha, ha, ha. You would cry.
