Starting point is 00:09:46 The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Jeezy's here. What up, though? What's happening? What's happening? The new book, Adversity for Sale, is out right now.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Y'all got to believe it. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Why did you decide to write a book? As quiet as you are about your history, your past, and everything you've been through, what made you decide to write a book? As quiet as you are about your history, your past, and everything you've been through, what made you decide to write a book? You know, well, statute of limitations is up far as I know. So I definitely ran everything through my lawyers. That was first and foremost.
Starting point is 00:10:14 It was actually a lot of stuff I had to take out of the book because I just didn't want to put myself in no crazy positions. But before I even say that, let me shout out to my brother right here to my right because this book was something I had been working on. And I had one situation and it fell through and i called charlamagne i was like bro who published your book how did you get it done and he pointed me in the right direction and thank you for that bro i love my brother he helped me get this done so you know just know charlamagne had a lot to do with that but right now you know me envy man like i've been through a lot and i started to get on this journey of, like, healing.
Starting point is 00:10:45 And that felt magical to me, bro. It was like, I just want to share it. Because even when I was in the streets and I was talking about motivation, that's what I really wanted to do, motivate people. And now it's like I got all this information, all this new knowledge, all these new mentors. And I'm just getting all this data. And it's just like I can't take it with me. So I want to just share it. And I feel like you know
Starting point is 00:11:06 writing a song is it's cool because you know we pretty much anybody can make a record but I don't think anybody can articulate their lives and put it in a book form and affect somebody else and I know that I'm able to write so this was like this was uh personal for, you know, in the culture. And I'm hoping that somebody can get this book and really, you know, find their way. When did Jeezy change and become the new and improved Jeezy and less? Oh, I can answer that just by reading the book. When did that happen? I mean, it happened a few times. The last time it happened is when I got locked up in L.A. on that Wiz Khalifa tour.
Starting point is 00:11:45 It was just a reality check. You know what I'm saying? And I almost was, you know, they basically tried to charge me with murder. And my team with murder. And they're just like, I ain't doing nothing wrong. So for me, that was one of the moments, like, no matter how successful you are, you know what I'm saying, they really still, you know. And I just was like, man, I had to just switch it all up. And then a lot of things
Starting point is 00:12:08 Happened in the time that I was in jail that I thought some people was gonna look out for me But they didn't and that really crushed me because it was just like I always look out for everybody, bro I'm always taking care of people and I just kind of felt like you just do it You know cuz you're a real one and then we start figuring out like now you might be the only Real person in this situation. Now you're like, damn, I'm by myself. And I just had to, you know, make a change, man. I remember just calling home and talking to my daughter. My first daughter had just been born then.
Starting point is 00:12:34 And it was just embarrassing, man, to call, you know, you're supposed to be this big man, this superstar. And you're calling home, collect, you know, from jail. And your baby's on the other line that can barely even talk. And she's, where you at? And you're like, daddy's going to be home in a minute. Like, it's like, you know what I mean? It was like, damn. Like, bro, you better, you know.
Starting point is 00:12:54 And so that was like the real time. But every time before that, you know, it was just always instances where I just knew that this wasn't going to work out for me. Right? So I had to figure out how to change without losing everything. You know what I'm saying? Because it got to a point even with the music, you know, and people say it all the time, I want your old music, but it's just like that was my old life.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Like I can't continue to give you something that I'm not doing. It's like me trying to give you some food at my house I don't even eat. You know what I'm saying? And it's just like you get caught up in that, and then if you're not careful, you'll get stuck in that mindset, right? And you'll continue to do the same things. And that's why a lot of people didn't understand the verses. It's like, no, bro.
Starting point is 00:13:30 I got to. I started this in my mind. I got to put it into this. I went to Nipsey Hussle's funeral. You feel what I'm saying? Like, I was there. I felt that pain. I felt that energy.
Starting point is 00:13:42 And I'm like, I don't understand why Nip is not here no more. You know I'm saying I don't know why I hit me so serious when pop smoked I you know Maybe because he was in my studio when I threw puff a Super Bowl party I didn't even know who pop was he was with me can fab and all these guys was in my studio house We all part and I was that like pop. I was okay cool The next time he'll buy me there there but like why he did all this work you know to become a superstar and to get out of Brooklyn and then you go down the hills you know so so I'm just looking at this and I'm like how can I be effective because I'm not trying
Starting point is 00:14:18 to preach or teach to nobody but it's just like bro on the other side of the bush, it's a whole nother life, man. It's like peace and happiness and family and real friends. That's right. You know what I'm saying? People you can call and say, hey, you know, Jan's my heart, by the way. Salute to Jan. Love Jan. Salute to Jan. Like, she's my heart, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Like, we're really friends. Absolutely. Right? And she goes hard for me. She don't even, she don't know my walk of life, but just imagine, you know. She feel your spirit. Right. And there's a relationship, and that's what real friends are. I mean, she don't know my walk of life, but just imagine. She feel your spirit. Right.
Starting point is 00:14:48 And there's a relationship, and that's what real friends are. They turn you on to other people, and people help each other out instead of trying to bring you down. So that's what the book is really about to me. It's about building and being and understanding that it ain't never too late to be better, man. One big transformation that's in the book, right around the recession time, when you decided to lose weight and everything. Yeah. That's when I got my sex symbol on. That was a good time.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Which part are you talking about in particular? You said you didn't like all of that. You didn't like the way you were living. You weren't drinking no water. You weren't eating right. Chris style and Waffle House. Decided to lose 60 pounds. Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:15:26 And the crazy thing was, well, what I really realized, like, because that was around the recession, I wrote the recession. The recession was the first time I, like, dialed everything back and was just really focused on the music. I wasn't doing no partying, nothing. I was just working out, reading, learning. And it was like, when I went out there to do that tour,
Starting point is 00:15:43 that was the first time I felt like a star. You feel what I'm saying? Because every time before that, up until that, I was going through, you know, survivor's remorse. I was depressed. I was going through all these things. But now I'm shaking this off and I lost 60 pounds. Instead of it being all these gangsters in the front row, now it's ladies and they're throwing bras. And I'm like, I ain't never going back.
Starting point is 00:16:02 You know what I'm saying? And that was the first time I really embraced you know who I was becoming and also too I started to notice like when I was healthier I was just making better decisions in life bro because this is the thing like we all real everybody come from where they come from but you only get one shot you know what I'm saying like they say you born you look like your daddy when you die you look like your decision that's right so at the end of the day bro just like I could have took a lot of right and left turns and did a lot of crazy things but i was brave enough to start making decisions that i can actually live a life you know i'm saying rather
Starting point is 00:16:35 than to look like i was living a life because that's what goes on our culture we all look like we living good but are we really that's right you know i'm saying? Like, are we happy? Are we at peace? You know what I mean? Do we got real people around us? All those things weren't happening for me. I was basically, like, getting up every day, playing this role, you know what I'm saying? And in it, but hoping I stay alive or free. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:16:59 So imagine that. You know, you got the world in your hands, and it's just like, you know, it's not really in your hands, bro. Like, you know, you wake up tomorrow, you'll be all gone. All right, we got more with Jeezy when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:17:10 The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.
Starting point is 00:17:22 I just kind of looked out of, like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy.

Starting point is 00:17:36 I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.

Starting point is 00:19:20 but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.

You know, think about that. You see it and you know, I don't what hip-hop makes all the way around i mean even for yourself car shows and you know and the stuff you do like i don't know what it makes if we all you know just the billions that it makes but it's 50 years old just imagine seeing a 50 year old person that's worth you know you know two three hundred billion dollars because he affects everything so just look at hip-hop as a person it's like we've all been able to eat off of it

And I tell people all the time, like I learned from Tupac, like, which is why my music was always serious to me. Like, well, I never just wrote it for money. Like, I didn't write the book for money. We could take the book off the table and I'd still be here because this is my purpose. But hip hop gave me a purpose.

But as far as, as like showing me the ropes allowing me to be around so i can understand what to do musically um that was all me just hanging around him and then when we created a sound that was me and him sitting in his basement you know
Starting point is 00:24:18 shawty believed in me then you know i'm saying and and again like a lot of things happened like fame happened success Success happened. And, you know, I just ran with the wind, right? So maybe we didn't have the conversations of how that was going to work out if I was to succeed. Is there anything that you feel like you left out of the book? I mean, you didn't even get into your new life being a husband. Yep, yep. Well, I felt, you know, and people ask me that.
Starting point is 00:24:43 And you know how you want to show everybody every room in your house except your bedroom? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it's sacred. It's your one thing. It's like that's my sacred place. Like, I don't want nobody. I don't want all these things that I've went through to even, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:58 connect with that because I feel like, you know, I don't want that energy in my new life. I feel like I'm writing something to stop that chapter. And if you peek while I stop the chapter, and if you watch how I live my life, and people are like, why'd you stop on verses? I said, because that's when I made a decision. That was the decision, evolve or die. So, bam, stop right there, and I'm going to evolve.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Y'all deal with that. That's on y'all to figure. I ain't got to never do another record in my life. You know, to a lot of people, verses was was just music but it was so much behind that culturally and and and one of us had to make a decision because if it would have went the way everybody wanted to go or thought it was gonna go um then we would be in the same place and there's not any place safe place for somebody to say hey bro i don't really get along with what you're talking about, but we got to figure this out, which is the conflict resolution, right?
Starting point is 00:25:48 Because when I look at Young Thug and Lucci, they hurt my heart, bro. And my thing is when I see these guys sitting in jail and prison and all their people was out here starving and the people they was taking care of and employing and all that, it's a wrap wrap but for what you know what i'm saying like because we can't sit down so that's what verses was about to me and i'm gonna keep it a thousand i ain't need to do no verses you know what i'm saying like but for the culture i owe i owe them that i'm the one that was telling them to go out here and do what
Starting point is 00:26:22 they had to do so how i'm gonna go make another move and do what I got to do and not tell y'all, hey, look, bro, I'm going to make this decision for all of us. And it might be unfavorable. Everybody might not get it, but you will before it's over with. And I love how you broke down where you were at in that moment when the truth played. Yeah. It was like you was like, stay scrapped because it came. Oh, no, it was there.
Starting point is 00:26:44 It was right there. Ace was queued up. Ace was ready've came. Oh no, it was there. It was right there. Ace was queued up. Ace was ready to go. He could've set it off. That's right. In my mind, I just said what I had to say because it didn't affect me then,
Starting point is 00:26:55 it's not gonna affect me now, and we already done been through about 15 years of this. So I'm moving on, bro. You know, and that's in front of the world, right? In front of the world, right? In front of everybody that respects me and might not respect me tomorrow,
Starting point is 00:27:09 but they ain't got shit to do with my kids, my life, my legacy, none of that. And that's why I stopped the book there because I'm going on to live my new life.

Starting point is 00:33:59 Well, always the beat. You know what I'm saying? At first, it's always like you hear the beat, and it's like, oh, I like this beat. Like, I really like this beat. It's funk, but it kind of reminds me of Dembow. Definitely Dembow. It reminds me of Dembow, but it's really funk. Like, technically, it's funk.
Starting point is 00:34:15 So. What is Dembow? You know, the Dominican. Uptown. Dominican music. Oh, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Like, you know. I'll take you where I want.
Starting point is 00:34:25 You, you be outside. You be outside here. Not no more take you where I want. You be outside. You be outside here. Not no more. You don't be outside. Come on. You don't be outside. I'll be in the house. I got to take you outside.
Starting point is 00:34:34 But that's a style of music. Yeah, it's a style of music. It's a Dominican style of music. But like technically really is funk. But I just love the beat. I start working on the song. But there's like a lot of empty spaces there's a lot of empty spaces i try to fill the empty spaces like you know like just me rapping and rapping and rapping and rapping and it just felt like a long ass song like it just needed dynamic so me and my team like my team wanted to go like more
Starting point is 00:34:59 like latin artists and i was like i i hear megan yeah i hear megan i hear megan on it they're like really you don't see like you see this like like more latin i'm like right no i see megan and then like exactly what i was like hearing in my head i sent her the song uh exactly what i was envisioning in my head like when she like when she i got her like burst back it was like you see this is what i was envisioning and it just made sense were you scared were you scared to team up with megan again because wop was such a massive record oh yeah of course of course like that's why i haven't like i definitely but i feel like this was like good and um like when she sent the the the her verse i was like oh i feel like this is a super like i feel like this is a good like like, I feel like this is a good, like, rap contender.
Starting point is 00:35:45 You feel like too much pressure. Everybody asking you to do your second album. You put out these verses and you're killing these verses. You're lighting these verses up. But everybody keeps saying, I love it, but where's the album? I love it, but where's the album? Don't you put too much pressure on yourself? I do put a lot of pressure on myself.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Like, I really, really do. Like, let me tell you something. Like, I just feel like I don't like nothing i hear i feel like i listen like 40 beats is it because everything sound the same i don't know because everything sound the same or every like it's like sometimes everything sound the same and then like when it's too different it's like i just too different for me like that is just too different so i don't know what i'll be looking for what i'll be looking for i don't know what it be looking for. I don't know what it is. But once something catch my eye, and I really
Starting point is 00:36:27 when I'm my eyes, my sound, my ears. Right. But even like I like it like that. They said you didn't love it, love it. And that became one of the biggest records ever. Yeah. I mean, I do take risks. I do take risks. I don't know. It's just a lot of pressure on the bitch. But I feel confident.
Starting point is 00:36:42 I have a lot of songs. Y'all can come by anytime. Y' that could hear something because and that's another thing too like i'm a libra i i be feeling like i need like everybody like a penny like what you think what you think what you think and that can be driving me crazy too but like i don't know why i've been i've been needing it though so is it fun is it still fun when i find like something that i like when it's something that i like it it's fun. But then sometimes, even when I like something and people don't like it, it doesn't become fun. It's like, damn, I was really vibing with this and it's like, yeah, I don't like it now. Now it's not fun.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Now I'm mad. But people don't like every, it's like they're going to find something wrong with whatever. So it don't matter. But it just got to make sense to you. Let me ask you this. Is it pressure because it's so many more women now, like dropping hair all the time? Like, but is that pressure? It being so many women in rap?
Starting point is 00:37:31 No, not really. I'm so used to like working with like a lot of women. Like I never like been like in an environment that's like, yeah, I'm kind of like the only one. So and now I always knew this. I always knew this. I always knew this. I always knew that after me, there was going to be more girls. Yeah. I know it wasn't going to just end with me.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Because it's like, if I made it, I know there's going to be more that's going to make it. And like the internet and everything. Like, it's like, I already saw this. Like, I saw this, like, back in, in, I don't know, 2017. I saw this. But you're also doing something that a lot of people didn't do when you were coming up. You'll find the hot new person or a young artist,
Starting point is 00:38:12 and you'll give them the opportunity and give them a verse, which a lot of people didn't do. That was something that Jay and Drake did great. I think I say Cardi did that for female rock. Yeah, absolutely. I was going to ask, does the competition fuel you? And it can be friendly competition. I mean, every time you get on a verse, you get on a record with somebody.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Is that the way you think? Like, oh, I got to eat her. You know what I mean? Oh, God. I don't I don't I don't really feel like I got to eat. I don't really feel like I got to eat. Like, all right. Like, for example, right.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Like, it's like if I have a song. Right. And then you send me your verse and you wrap your your ass off i'm still not changing my verse i'm not changing it because i feel like they're like this this is what i'm going for this is what i'm thinking however i don't want to like also never like ruin nobody else like song or anything but people do it all the time we've heard you know i think nah i said he changed the verse when he got a verse back and you hear it all the time. So you never said,
Starting point is 00:39:06 nah, I got it. Which one's your favorite? What's playing with you? Who's been your favorite female rapper to collaborate with? I really like them all. I really, I really, I really like them all.
Starting point is 00:39:14 And every song that I like, I got like on, like I got on it because I just really, really, really, really like that song. Like I love the song and it's like,
Starting point is 00:39:22 I feel like I could hear myself on it. There's a lot of, there's a lot of there's a lot of songs like i get songs sent to me all the time but i feel like it's like some songs i just feel like i feel like i can't do nothing for the song like it's like i don't feel like i could do like a verse that like i'm like confident in so it's just like and i just be like no and it's like i feel like the song is great great. So I don't even want to like ruin it. You just said drill ain't your style. What's that? And what's that one song?
Starting point is 00:39:51 And I told you. Oh my God. That song is so crazy. I heard that song is so crazy. I was like, and that's my, that's my style. That's my tempo. Cause some tempos, like I just cannot keep up. Like, it's like, you know, like when I first heard Munch and everything.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Yeah. I love the song. first heard Munch and everything? Yeah. I love the song. I love the beat and everything. Then I was going to, I was doing the remix and everything. They said you did a verse, right? Yeah, I did a verse. But it's like, I felt like I was fighting the beat. Like, I can't breathe.
Starting point is 00:40:19 I'm well-mended. The beat just was thin. I was like, listen, I don't want to f*** the song. Yeah, because you got to eat on Munch. Like, I got to eat. You got to eat on Munch. He's like, Kyle, like, listen, I don't want to the song. Yeah, because you got to eat on much. Like, I got to eat. You got to eat on much. Like, Kyle, like, yo, relax. I get it.
Starting point is 00:40:31 I get it. But like, I was windmilling. And it's like, if I can't keep up with something, like, it's like, I'm not going to play myself. And I don't want to, like, ruin it. Like, you know, like, when somebody get on a song and it's like, you really the song off. Get that out of here now.
Starting point is 00:40:43 Right. I like how you up tomorrow. Tomorrow. Yeah. Oh, oh yeah i love it it was crazy and i love loretta she remind me of my best friend like yeah i love her yeah i love her all right we got more with cardi b when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy charlamagne the guy jess hilarious we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with cardi b charlamagne do you think that Jess Hilarious. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Cardi B. Charlamagne. Do you think the label makes you do records that you may not necessarily want to do?
Starting point is 00:41:10 Nobody can make me do shit. People can give me recommendations and everything, but it's like nobody can make me do anything. I will try something. I will try something. And when I say I will try something, it's like when they want me to, like, to, like, you know, be a little bit more, like, you know, like, more feminine or more, like, I don't know, like, mainstream type of stuff. Because, like, that's just not really be my vibe like that. But, like, nobody can make me do shit. I was going to ask, you know, you mentioned when you were working in the strip club, do people look at you as the old Cardi all the time?
Starting point is 00:41:39 Because you got so many friends and you were so many people before the huge rap success. Sometimes you got to check somebody and be like look i'm not that old from back then i'm not that same person i feel like i feel like like like the people that know me know that i haven't really changed like like i feel like i could call my friends right now they're like girl bye i feel like i haven't like really changed like that way but i feel like to the world i feel like to the world like i wonder if people have seen that change i feel like i changed i'm like more like chill now like i could like back then i could be all day cussing everybody out but it's like i just have like backed away more and i got kids
Starting point is 00:42:15 and i'm 30 like yeah i'm 30 like by five o'clock i need a little nap that's one thing that's one thing i say that it looks like you love it's's like, you know, you see so many people with their kids, right?

They want, like, they want They don't want your aunt To take them to school They don't want nothing They want mom and dad To take them to school They want like They want to chill with mom and dad They want to play with mom and dad So it's just like

Starting point is 00:42:59 So when they do vacation And everything And it's like I'm by myself with the kids And it's like Damn I don't really know Like what they gonna want to eat And everything So I gotta I gotta get used and everything And it's like I'm by myself with the kids And it's like Damn I don't really know Like what they gonna wanna eat and everything So I gotta get used to that
Starting point is 00:43:08 And I really just naturally like it Like I like this If I could just do this All forever I would But I gotta work You think that's the biggest change That has happened in your life Over the last five years
Starting point is 00:43:21 The kids? Hell yeah Okay Hell yeah Just motherhood period yeah cuz it's like I be feeling like like I got a lot to lose before that I'm diving in I lose it all but I'm gonna curse you out how is it how is it being a boss with everybody but then when your kids they

He just turned two. How you bad at one? So what do you do to discipline him? Like, what is he afraid of? He's not afraid of nothing. Damn. That's the problem.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Nothing you can take from him or take his tablet or something? Nothing? No, he don't care about nothing. Like, even if you take it, it's like, all right, don't mess with today then. Damn. Why do you let the comments get to you so much, Barty? Just on social media and just, like, everything. I don't know, because it's like,
Starting point is 00:45:07 I know you're not f***ing talking. That's the thing. The s*** that get me mad is that, like, because it's like, why are you talking, though? Like, what are you, why are you talking? Yeah. Why are you talking? Like, it's like, when I was, like, in, like,

Like, it's like really... Nah, nah, nah, nah. I used to really roast. Roast. It's not even like roasting. It was like I could go toe-to-toe with dudes and stuff. It was just things.
Starting point is 00:45:32 So it's like me, I'm the type of person that I could take one look at you. And it's like I got like 10 jokes lined up. So it's just like when people mess with me, it's like, yo, I could really, really mess with... You want to mess my day up? I will mess your whole three weeks up. I will stay embedded in your head. So it's just like, but it's like the fact that I have to restrain myself. It frustrates me.
Starting point is 00:45:52 It really frustrates me. So when you put out projects, right, when you put out music, do you go through the comments to see what people are saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because sometimes, well, you got to also know what people like, though. But they're never going to give you a real critique, though. Because they're just mad that you bawdy and you're super successful. How many people are going to really be like, oh, I f***ed with this record? How many people are going to really give it up on social media?
Starting point is 00:46:13 You know what? I be feeling like a lot of people hate to admit that they like me. Like, a lot of people are afraid to say that they like me Because When people say That they like me They get attacked Yeah They be getting attacked When they say That they like me Or they like

So there was a part of the show that I told people, like, you know, splash me. But even when I told them splash me, I was like, man, be careful with the faces. The faces beep.
Starting point is 00:48:32 So four songs after, nobody had splashed me. I told y'all to splash me for one little second. Four songs after, which is like, I don't know, 15, 20 minutes after, this bitch threw water and ice on my face. So, like, I just automatically reacted. I didn't even know that I was throwing it. I just threw the shit because it's like, you hit me right in my face.
Starting point is 00:48:53 And when I look at the video, it's like, nah, you intended to throw that shit in my face because you ain't did it like this. You threw it hot. You threw it hot. Like, and the hot ice. And everybody's like, oh, but, no, you throw some ice in your face,

No, but it was in a segment, though. It was in one segment. Like, girl, you did that shit like 20 minutes later. And not only that, you threw me ice. If it wasn't ice in it, it would have went different.
Starting point is 00:49:24 It probably wouldn't even be different, it would have went different. It would have been different. It probably wouldn't even be different because you splashed me in my face. Like, you know what you was doing? How 10 people splashed me at the same time and nothing hit my face? But you hit my face directly. I bet you was a fan, though. No, no. You was trying to be funny, but I'm hilarious, though.

You was in the middle saying, y'all brothers, y'all brothers, I need to stop. How difficult was that in the household trying to get them to understand that they're brothers?

Someone who lives large in life and in the bedroom, then live large and now thinner with new Magnum Raw condoms. The thinnest Magnum condom available where condoms are sold. It's a miracle.
Starting point is 01:03:58 There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community. Yes, you are a donkey. The latest on that police killing of a black man. Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. And yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Okay, white supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. To the breakfast club, bitches! Alright, Sean Dean, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Yeah, his donkey of the day goes to Scott Adams. Do y'all know who Scott Adams is? No. Not familiar.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Well, he's the creator of the syndicated comic script Dilbert. Do y'all know Dilbert? Yes, I remember Dilbert. Okay. Well, the Washington Post, LA Times, a bunch of newspapers around the country carry Dilbert. Well y'all know Dilbert? Yes, I remember Dilbert. Okay. Well, the Washington Post, LA Times, a bunch of newspapers around the country carry Dilbert. Well, they did. They don't anymore because Scott Adams for whatever reason decided to post a video
Starting point is 01:04:51 online urging white people to get the hell away from black people. Okay, I'm not making any of this up. Let's go to CBS News for the report please. Newspapers across the country have pulled the long-running Dilbert comic strip after a racist rant from cartoonist Scott Adams. In a video posted to YouTube this week,
Starting point is 01:05:07 Adams called black Americans members of a, quote, hate group who are saying white people should stay away from them. Adams has written Dilbert for three decades. Would you like to hear the racist rant? Yeah. Yeah? All right. Let's listen to it. Let's go. This is the first political poll that ever changed my activities.
Starting point is 01:05:26 I don't know that that's ever happened before. But as of today, I'm going to re-identify as white because I don't want to be a member of a hate group. I'd accidentally joined a hate group. So if nearly half of all blacks are not okay with white people, according to this poll, not according to me, according to this poll, that's to me, according to this poll, that's a hate group. That's a hate group. And I don't want to have anything to do with them.
Starting point is 01:05:51 And I would say, you know, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people. Just get the f*** away. Wherever you have to go, get away because there's no fixing this this can't be fixed well it can be fixed and damn i buried the lead scott was transracial i forgot to tell you transracial transracial he said he identifies as black i'm re-identifying his book too yeah he's what do you identify as now because what did he identify he said he said he identifies as white let me hear him so i realized um as you know i've been identifying as black for a while okay years now because i like you know i like to be on the winning team
Starting point is 01:06:36 and i like to help and i i always thought well if you help the black community okay that's sort of the biggest lever you know you could you can find the biggest benefit. So I thought, well, that's the hardest thing and the biggest benefit. So I'd like to focus a lot of my life resources in helping black Americans. So much so that I started identifying as black to just be on the team I was helping. But it turns out that nearly half of that team doesn't think I'm okay to be white.
Starting point is 01:07:10 So you can identify for whatever you want? That's what I'm saying. You just realizing this? You're late. I'm going to try that. When I get pulled over next time, I'm going to be like, actually, I'm white.
Starting point is 01:07:20 I mean, this is obviously an old crazy man. Like, he's old and senile, so I really don't... I'm not even taking it seriously at all. I think we should take it serious. The only reason I think we should take it serious is when I hear white people like Scott Adams talk like this, it makes me feel like he has no concept of history whatsoever, like no knowledge of
Starting point is 01:07:38 white racial supremacy and colonization because, Scott, I don't know if you know, but black people have way more reasons to fear white people than white people have to fear us okay the only thing white people could possibly be afraid of in regards to black people is black people one day having the type of power and privilege they have and doing to them what they have done to countless marginalized groups for centuries so you know Scott Adams isn't just calling for segregation he's calling for separation yeah the honorable Elijah Muhammad muhammad would agree
Starting point is 01:08:05 okay but once again and this is just historic fact white people have caused more hell on this planet for everybody than anybody and you can't hear what you don't reveal so this newfound playing the victim this white grievance thing that's happening is nuts to me okay black grief should not lead the white grievance because we have every single reason to grieve. Now, can we also talk about self-destruction and self-sabotage? Because we're not talking about that in this situation. Dilwood was published daily in 2000 newspapers in 65 countries in 25 languages. And now it's been canceled by hundreds of newspapers because Scott Adams woke up and said, you know what I'm going to do today?
Starting point is 01:08:44 I'm going to just go on a racist tirade against black people. I'm going to go DEFCON 3 on black people for no reason. All right? Called black people a hate group. Why? Yeah. Why? Because we hated slavery?
Starting point is 01:08:55 Because we hate the fact that there has been no atonement for slavery? Because we hate systemic racism? Why wouldn't a black person hate the fact that from birth to death, we face systemic disadvantages? Okay? Inequality between blacks and whites persists in every single aspect of society. OK, it's wealth, poor health and shorter lifespans. And we're not supposed to hate that. Now, I can't speak for all black people. OK, no black person can. But personally, I don't hate white people, but I do hate white supremacy.
Starting point is 01:09:19 And I really hate white grievance, especially when the white grievance paints black people as the problem. What's that African proverb? Until the lion learns how to write every story will glorify the dilbert that's how it goes there's something to that there's something to that i mean scott you called black people a hate group but think about all these wide gaps i just mentioned they exist because of slavery segregation and discrimination i haven't even mentioned things like the war on drugs police brutality i mean come on bro hate and racial injustice does not make black people a hate group. But Scott, you know this.
Starting point is 01:09:47 You're just racist. Simple and plain. Okay, you are white supremacist. And white separatism is a concept every neo-Nazi white nationalist talks about all the time. So knock it off. Knock it off before we send Dr. Umar on you. A thousand lashes. A thousand?
Starting point is 01:10:03 A thousand? Exactly. Is this a thousand? Ten thousand. Ten. Okay. Because he on the way. He coming for you. A thousand lashes. A thousand? A thousand? Exactly. Is this a thousand? Ten thousand. Ten. Okay. Because he on the way. He coming for you. Please give Scott Adams the big, well matter of fact, let Chelsea Handler give Scott Adams the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw!
Starting point is 01:10:15 Hee-haw! That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. I think Kathy Griffin needs to get in on this too. Please give this giant jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw. No Chris Rock? I ain't heard from Mr. Chris Rock in a while either. Cracker ass cracker. Oh. Yeah, he need all of them. What about my girl?
Starting point is 01:10:34 Cracker. Hey, man. Are you offending DJ Envy? Because remember you just said that you're trans. Woof. I'll give you a dogf. Identifies a dog. Since we can switch it up whatever we want. Big yellow beige dog.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Envy the big beige dog. Big dog. Oh my God. I'm messing with y'all. That could be dope. You put some Timbs on him and a Yankees hat. That would be amazing. You put some Timbs on him in a Yankees hat. That would be amazing. Not the butters.
Starting point is 01:11:08 The Breakfast Club. We were sitting at a show, and I was telling him, like, man, I don't know if I should do it because it just ain't going to be right. And I feel like I'm scared it's going to put me back in that moment. And he was like, nah, you got to do that for the world and for him. Like, y'all Lacey, man, y'all were the biggest group ever in hip-hop. And also, like, he would want that, bro. He was like, you need that energy.
Starting point is 01:11:34 You and your brother rocking that stage again. Even if it's for the last time or whatever. And this is Zach where he's like, even if it's for the last time or whatever, he don't really know what's going on. But it's going to be a cleanser for both of y'all. And it was. Yeah, it don't really know what was going on, but it's going to be a cleanser to both of y'all. Was it? Yeah, it was. I swear it was.
Starting point is 01:11:47 It was, it was, it felt like at first before I did it, I was still like, because it reminds, you know, it's a reminder.
Starting point is 01:11:53 But after we did it, I just felt, I did feel good about it, like, close the chapter on the right way, like, on a big way.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Unity, love, and like, giving to the people also. What was it like before that because i know everybody talks about i guess y'all got into something backstage somewhere it was a video where everybody heard cardi yelling like y'all both wrong so what was what was it like before that moment oh before what before before y'all got on stage like oh no we we were together man
Starting point is 01:12:20 like that's hard pill to swallow like your bro missing all that out the window you know i'm saying it's like family love everything let's do this right more than anything because when you go into something with the wrong energy you ain't gonna do it right you know i'm saying when it's with the right energy and that's my brother so what's your relationship now with quavo that's my brother at the end of the day we good bro we just with each other in paris we be talking because we be going through little emotions and it don't be for the public. That's the thing. When it's like this, it don't be everything
Starting point is 01:12:47 and for the public to be kiki-ing and it's all love. At the end of the day, we lost a brother. You know they want to see y'all cry on Instagram. That's what they want.
Starting point is 01:12:55 Not going to get it from me. You think y'all ever make music together? Not even just as Migos but just as Set and Quavo? I think so. I think a lot of fans were hoping that there was
Starting point is 01:13:04 maybe lost takeoff verses or lost Migos records and that they would get that one more Migos album. But that doesn't seem like that's going to happen. Nah, it ain't fair to put that pressure on us either. After losing brother, man. Maybe. You know what I'm saying? In the future.
Starting point is 01:13:19 Right now, I just don't see it. It's like hard for me hearing our songs sometimes. In the club, bro. And people might have got a smile on my face. but that s*** like, take verse, come on. Like, touch me every single time. So it's like, I don't see us doing that. Now, I can imagine, because to us it's just a verse, but to you, it's like, you probably think about the moment y'all recorded. The moment we made the song.
Starting point is 01:13:37 The day. Yeah. It put me in that bed every time. I was just in Starlet the other night. And they playing Freak No More. And his verse, come on. I'm like, throwing money. His verse, come on. It like throwing money his verse come on
Starting point is 01:13:45 it's just like slowed me up real quick so now what's the difference between this album Set It Off and Father of Four okay Father of Four
Starting point is 01:13:54 was like I feel like I was getting more personal about who I was my story of going to jail having kids young the story of my wife my letter to my wife
Starting point is 01:14:03 I'm just in a but this album is more like the music wise it's like more fun I'm I didn't I did all the new producers
Starting point is 01:14:11 so I didn't really except for Metro and Southside I didn't really work all the producers I worked with on this it's like new producers I never worked with because I didn't want to
Starting point is 01:14:18 create the same sound because I feel like artists now like as an artist sometimes like you just get stuck in your ways and I let a lot of
Starting point is 01:14:24 I worked with A&R this time like I let a lot of I worked with an artist time Like I know a lot of people and I game but the G my and I was fire So she was able to bring me different producers that I never heard of and different sounds and give me Critiquing me on the music like nah number one sign to make the make sound like number 10 I was happy because like usually I ain't going for that, you know I ain't nobody to me nothing but I, I ain't letting nobody tell me nothing. But I understand, like, change the game, change. The sound be changing.
Starting point is 01:14:51 And you just got to change with it or you're going to get left. Is it difficult with you doing music, right, because you are a husband, your father of five, but yet you're still in the club, so you know what people want to hear. You know people in the club ain't married. You know the people in the club might not have some kids. So when you do your music, do you say do you say well i gotta put myself in their situation and take myself out from the husband and take myself out being the father five because you didn't on this album you knocked off a lot of a lot of chicks on this album all these women all set and you're married man that's what uh because i got a real wife like that she understands like we in I gotta be relatable and especially
Starting point is 01:15:25 like I age like the average person ain't married and like people sometimes people I could see it like you let your wife dress like this and you like I'm very secure by my husband so we ain't no controlling like don't do this or I'm not telling her don't do a feature with that at that time because it's just like this this this they'll interrupt the love I feel like when you go to doing that cuz then it's like damn I want to interrupt the love, I feel like, when you go to doing that, because then it's like, damn,
Starting point is 01:15:46 I want to be this person, I got to talk to all these people, all these fans, and they got to relate to me, but they can't relate to me if I'm standing in one lane, so I'm just blessed to have a good wife.
Starting point is 01:15:55 What about the people who, those same kids that love your personal life, they love you and Cardi together as a couple, and they follow y'all on social media and see all of that,
Starting point is 01:16:04 and they like, damn, they might want to hear that reflected in the music, because I know people got really excited when they heard y'all on social media and see all of that and they like damn they might want to hear that reflected in the music because i know people got really excited when they heard y'all doing an album together yeah um or ep or whatever it was they don't they can't get mad at me because i'm not gonna tell her like you can't say shaking your ass or like you're having a good time girls want to feel that them bars she be saying but i guess you know too when carly talks about that i guess we all automatically assume when she says she's shaking ass is shaking her ass for her husband you know what i mean it's like she's doing it for set but you know i mean for you when i heard i'm not gonna like oh he's putting his mind frame on somebody that's in the club not himself yeah i got to bro
Starting point is 01:16:38 because it's like it's more of bros doing that than there's people that's married facts these are facts these are facts. These are facts, so I just still got to be relatable to them. They got to still feel like, oh, shit, I ain't on no old. Like, shit, I got married. We don't even understand them all. Then it's the worst. Then there's no coming back from that.

Starting point is 01:22:17 Hit it for first You never heard the album They say what the album Hit it for Yeah yeah So that's just like A confidence bar Like you know I went through some things I can't really speak on.
Starting point is 01:22:27 Like, I stepped out of the box and, like, had to get my s*** together on the business side of things. And, like, after that, the freedom and the being able to be in control of my creative and being able to do that was like, now I can show you who I am. If you notice, like, now people kind of see, like, I got a personality. I felt like that was kind of, like, bottled in when everything was all this one. Because it wasn't really about me. It was about us. This album is about me. How important was hip-hop growing up to you?
Starting point is 01:22:52 Because I know you got roots in New York. I know you got roots in the land. I know you got roots a little bit everywhere. I'd be sitting set with people. I'd be like, how do you know him? So, you know, talk about your roots and what hip-hop means to you. Because you sample a lot of that on this album. Hip-hop, man, meaning me, like, man,
Starting point is 01:23:07 growing up is like the superheroes, you know what I'm saying, to me, because I felt like it was so out of reach. And also, I felt like they was, like, saving the world with the music and, like, you know, seeing, like, Cash Money, Master P, because I'm from the South, Andre Tha, like, Outkast. You know, we from Atlanta, so we might not even listen to it
Starting point is 01:23:25 i might not get on jay-z towers in high school you know what i'm saying i might not know him through middle school i knew guap i knew gucci and i knew jay-z i knew under 2000 i knew future it's like our neighborhood heroes and like me i feel like in general with music you gotta know your roots and pay respect to it too like i watched the james browns i'd be watching like how they would dress or how they stay so it would be or sometimes I go watch a rock-and-roll I'm only cool some I go watch them stay stay said to get a like a like a like an idea even on stage and like cuz I feel like you it always rotate but you could just do it better in a better way well one of the things
Starting point is 01:23:59 you say throughout the album is you keep referencing blame it on set that's a dope record too by the way to blame it on set record what are some of the things you think folks blame you for no it's not like people blame me for it's like it's like a it's like me talking to myself almost like everything you went through is because of you it's like taking responsibility everything you went through is because of you like anytime anything happens it's it's on you that's all it was it wasn't like a specific like y'all blaming me no it was just like taking time being a man being a man yeah accountability like accountability for all actions people were mad at you a
Starting point is 01:24:33 couple of weeks ago because you did that interview uh what's her name Bobby they weren't mad at me I feel like they was oh that smoke dead in you even gave her an opportunity to interview you. You know what I mean? You know, people were saying, well, why would you give that girl an opportunity and not somebody from the culture? Reached out, I did my research,
Starting point is 01:24:54 and I was like, I'm open to do it, because, you know, I don't like doing interviews at all. I was like, I'm open to doing an album on the way. And I felt like it was kind of comical. It was kind of funny. It was kind of funny to me. It wasn't like I wasn't taking that shit Offensive you gotta be on your toes when you're doing it. No she needed to be on her toes
Starting point is 01:25:10 Yeah, yeah, yeah, she needed it. She needed it. You know what I'm saying? And also like I'm doing this for the brothers You ain't gonna catch me slipping on this show and be down on top of me and you like you just coming up off the top It's all love though, but she's she's she cool man. I don't know I felt like A lot of people did take a lot of comedy out of it. It's all love, though. But she cool, man. I don't know. I feel like a lot of people did take a lot of comedy out of it. It was supposed to be funny, man. You told us you needed some seasoning.
Starting point is 01:25:30 Yeah, she do. Oh, absolutely. A little bit of seasoning. But it's cool, though, man. Ain't no issues or nothing. But I feel like a lot of people was mad at her. But that's how she do the interviews.
Starting point is 01:25:40 I think I brought it to our world more. Because a lot of people are like, why does she? It was kind of taking it as she was being disrespectful. She wasn't. I think that's the to our world more. It's like a lot of people are like, why does she? It was kind of taking it as like she was being disrespectful. She wasn't. She just, I think that's the way she got on. You know, I hear you channel a lot in this album. I hear a lot of Project Pat.
Starting point is 01:25:54 Yeah. Were you listening to a lot of Pat? 3 6 and Project Pat. Yeah, man. That's what I'm saying. It's like the underground music. And to come to, and then they went underground and went big. Shout out to Juicy J, man.

So, and then it's the South music, man. There's just always something about the South music to me, even growing up.

Now, we had Cardi up here, and we were talking about your marriage and everything. And she was like, sometimes it's difficult not to keep things off social, right?

That's right pause I do want to ask what what I learned from takeoffs passing. Um I'm still on it. Um, how are you know today? The lesson is just pain. It ain't really you trying to run from this Have you done anything to deal with that grief?
Starting point is 01:31:45 Have you sat down with somebody? I be feeling like sitting down with people. Maybe I ain't found the right person, but I don't feel like sometimes people can't relate. That's why culturally competent therapists and psychiatrists and grief counselors are very important. You got to have somebody from it to understand it. I feel like sometimes in them job spaces, they not giving people who have maybe have a record or and those are the
Starting point is 01:32:08 people you need to have in the office because they're gonna they've been through they can really relate to black people i like i feel like the therapy thing don't really be for black folks a lot of times because every person i've ever seen it like they ain't they like to buy them ask you a question back like so have you ever done it and if it ain't They like to I'm gonna ask you Your questions back So have you ever Da da da da da And if it ain't It's a waste of time Well we appreciate you
Starting point is 01:32:29 The album comes out This Friday Set it off You wanna play it I gotta ask you What was your favorite song That you feel like I like Say My Grace
Starting point is 01:32:38 I like Worth It Cause I just I'm from that era So I like you Kinda catching the Buster flow Which was different for me I like Blame It On Set.
Starting point is 01:32:45 I like the one where you had the Project Pat flow. The first song on the album, Hard. On the River. Yeah, that's when you said I'm the one. That's Hard. I don't know. I got to listen to it again. I only got to listen to it one time.
Starting point is 01:32:55 Yeah, listen to it one time, too. I wanted to bring rap, like rapping on the song, but I feel like it's a lot of auto-tune, a lot of like... I got melodies on it, of course, but like... Your voice don't need it, though. You got to get to the rapping. But your voice so distinct. You don't need the auto-tune joint with travis uh that's what i said say my grace my grace oh okay all right all right yeah that's hard that's why we got the video we shot that in thailand too i can't wait to see that in art what does success
Starting point is 01:33:16 look like for offset um the music connected to the people like i'm not you know how we came in the game like i hate how everything is clocked now like the numbers first day because then that gives people opinions already immediately that ain't even chatting to us so me i'm just trying to connect musically with these people like you said identify offset sound like like i did on reflare that was like oh bro we got that like it's it's proven like and showing my Like, you see my album cover falling from the sky upside down, but I'm still on top. It's like being able to express the art. It's not numbers for me because I come from, see, my number one record was number 60 and 40 and 20 and 10. Then number one.
Starting point is 01:34:00 So I know, like, working a record, I feel like people don't be working records no more the festivals and in big places they taking your numbers they taking you where your song that on billboard I learned that it like I think I learned that 2016 I forgot who the artist was it was gone after us and I'm like I know we had it in I know this like but the streaming numbers it was like a radio show to me like what they on, well, they on Billboard. They on top 15. Y'all like number 40 right now. And then it made me understand the significance point of it.

Now we're asking if you're just joining us. 800-585-1051. Yesterday after the show, the ladies of The Breakfast Club were talking about shooting their shots. And they were saying when they shoot their
Starting point is 01:35:35 shot with a man, they always hit 100% from the line. And they were saying that their relationships when they shoot their shot last a little longer. So we're asking ladies, have you ever shot your shot? And how did it turn out? 800 585 105 1 I want to ask you a question. Yes, ma'am So they said that when they shoot their shot from the line, it usually goes in those are their longest relationships So from a man's point of view, why do you think that is?
Starting point is 01:36:01 Is it because the man is flattered because he knows that the woman is 100 in that she really wants to be there because she approached him because she went for the gusto what do you think it is i think it's a little bit of everything i mean you still have to look attractive like you just can't shoot your shot and you know you gotta you know okay so you still have to look attractive you still have to be smart yes okay and i think it's i think it's dope i think a lot of times i don't think necessarily uh women shoot their shots as much as men do so i think when they do it's kind of intriguing okay makes you you know want to see well what is this about let's have a conversation let's talk and then you know i think most men feel like if a woman's shooting
Starting point is 01:36:36 a shot she's probably horny and i could probably get it in a little faster maybe i don't know i think we're also more efficient i think men cast a big net and just try to holler at anything badass and we like we'll look at you first like okay i can see we're looking at your shoes your nails like we're not looking at a man for a fat ass deliberate yeah we don't know we're deliberate okay right so that's why we have a higher success rate okay you guys just like oh ass titties we're like okay he looks stable okay he seems nice nice smile there's we look at things. So when's the last time you shot your shot at an individual? So just straight up with someone I just met. I don't really do it that often.
Starting point is 01:37:10 I will definitely give the cues where I give them the green light where they know it's okay. So what are the cues? What's the cleavage? What's the cues? Well, you know, you give a little flirty look, whatever, all that kind of stuff. But I will say I did get turned down one time with someone that I dated and I tried to spin the block again. Oh, so you tried to go back. Tell us about that. Now I'm interested. This is super embarrassing. You got my attention. And I don't want to get embarrassed. So anyways,
Starting point is 01:37:28 this is a guy that I thought was the one. Okay. So we had broken up, but like not. Wait, wait, wait. Why'd you break up? Um, so we were kind of young and he came into like a big contract. And so like he got to have kind of go live his life a little bit and have his little fun. And I understood that. Like I wish I would have met him like way before, you know. Anyways, long story short, I always felt like he was like the one. So we pleasantly broke up. We just split. But it wasn't bad.
Starting point is 01:37:53 So he was in town for an award show and they were hosting a party at this place. So I knew he was going to be there. So I packed an overnight bag. Oh, so you was ready. He was like, he's not going to turn me down. Stop interrupting. I packed an overnight bag. Oh, so you was ready. He was like, he's not going to turn me down. Stop interrupting. I packed an overnight bag, right? And I'm like thinking, surely he's going to hang out with me afterwards.
Starting point is 01:38:10 Right. Like, of course. Why would he not? Like, why would you not? Oh, he had plans. So anyways, at the end of the night, I was hovering, you know, like this. Oh, no. Whenever I thought maybe we would hang out.
Starting point is 01:38:22 And he goes, oh, I have plans. I go, with somebody else? He's like, yeah. I was like, but I brought her overnight. Jesus. You didn't tell him that. No, you didn't. Claudia.
Starting point is 01:38:32 Jesus. Claudia, tell me you didn't tell him that. I said it with my eyes. I said it with your eyes. I said it with my eyes. So anyways, I went in the car and I cried, right? And I filmed. I did one of those corny.
Starting point is 01:38:44 Well, I did the Tyrese thing. I filmed myself crying, right? And I filmed, I did one of those corny, well, I did the Tyrese thing. I filmed myself crying, right? To remind myself to never do, not to post, to remind myself to never go out like that again. And then I told my friends a story and I told them,
Starting point is 01:38:55 but I brought an overnight bag. To this day, they would like put bags underneath my comments sometimes. Oh, my friends suck. So yeah, I did get shot. I did, I lost the last of my shot.
Starting point is 01:39:04 So wait, and he never called you back after that no we talked but it wasn't we never went there it was awkward she's not going back
Starting point is 01:39:09 there now because for me logically that doesn't seem like a turndown that seems like oh maybe I would but I have plans but if he didn't
Starting point is 01:39:18 call afterwards to say hey you know so you brought that overnight bag so you know what's up that's a turndown
Starting point is 01:39:24 that's what more so feels like the turndown you know what I'm brought that overnight bag. So, you know, what's up? That's a turndown. That's what more so feels like. You know what? I'm canceling my plans. Come on. But since he didn't, that's second. We don't know what his plans are. I'm trying to make her feel good. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:39:34 I don't like to presume. I never like to presume. Once again, I came in second. Let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Destiny. Hi, Destiny. How are you guys?
Starting point is 01:39:49 We're wonderful. I love you. Pauly, I love you. Of course, DJ Ava, I love you too. You ain't got to say mine like that. As long as I came in first, thank you. She sure did. See, once again, I'm stuck in it.
Starting point is 01:40:00 Now, when did you shoot your shot at somebody, Destiny? Okay, the one time in life. I never did this ever. So I was in college, and it was like a comedy show, kind of like a wild and out vibe. They came to our college, and it was this guy. He kept looking at me. And I was telling my friends, like, oh, he's cute, girl.
Starting point is 01:40:22 And my friend Zoe, she said, oh, you're so bad. Go over there and talk to him. He thinks you're all that. So I said, OK, I'm going to go talk to him. And he literally laughed in my face. And for the following hour, he talked about me in the comedy show. Damn it, man. So when you went up to him and spoke, what was it that you said before he laughed in your
Starting point is 01:40:45 face? I was just like, hi, I see that we keep making eye contact. My name is Destiny and I just was trying to see, you know, would you like to grab some food from the cafeteria later or something like that. It was just something like lame, like,
Starting point is 01:41:01 hey, let me hang out. And then he actually laughed? When he got off stage, he was just like like lame, like, hey, let me hang out. And then he actually left? And then he actually, when he got off stage, he was just like, I'm married. And he was like, my wife married me from Lanny. And he was like, so I have a bad wife at home. She married me from Lanny. And this girl from college that lives in a little small town is trying to talk to me. Oh, damn.
Starting point is 01:41:21 Jesus. Destiny. I want to know who the comedian was. Some no-name guy from me. Oh, damn. Jesus. Destiny. I want to know who the comedian was. Um, some no-name guy from Savannah. No. Savannah, Georgia. Did you do the breath check
Starting point is 01:41:30 before you went over there? Did you do like a to make sure you was good money? I was good. Let me tell you. I was good. I was cute that day. I'm a makeup artist.
Starting point is 01:41:38 Damn. So my makeup was everything. And he even said like, oh, you're cute. But my wife married me from then. So I'm the kid. Damn it, man. That was his little thing. He kept saying, even said like, oh, you're cute, but my wife married me from the beginning. I'm the kid. Damn it, man.
Starting point is 01:41:47 That was his little thing. He kept saying, he's like, I literally date a supermodel. Damn. Sorry, Destiny. Well, we're 0 for 2 right now, so as far as kicking it to guys,
Starting point is 01:41:55 right now, I'm against it. But guys nowadays think they're the bad bitch, though. Wait, so, Rashawn, let me ask you a question. How do you feel about that masculine energy of a woman saying,
Starting point is 01:42:04 hey, can I take you out? Not just I want to get to know you, but like, I want to take you on a date. I don't mind. You would like it? I don't care. I was thinking the same thing. Like, do guys get turned off? I am wondering about that.
Starting point is 01:42:14 In this new bad bitch era, I think that men are not as turned off by it. I think that there's something psychological there. No, because if I have it, then I don't feel any way about it. But now if I don't have it. No, no, let's take money. No, no, no. It's not about money. It's just about the intention of a woman saying, hey, I want to take you out. Sure, where
Starting point is 01:42:32 we going? It turns me off. You're not a man. No, no, no. The idea of it completely turns me off. No. I feel as though if I'm into a guy and I'm in his space, if he is attracted to me, if he's interested, he is going to kick it.
Starting point is 01:42:46 If he is not, I am not going to push the envelope and put myself on a platter for rejection. And I'm further not going to take on like a more masculine energy and say, hey, can I take you out to dinner? But I believe in traditional roles. I like to be courted. Those are things that are important to me. Oh, please stay married because they're not courting these days. They are not courting.
Starting point is 01:43:08 They're calling late. They're leaving me at 1 o'clock in the morning at the hotel room. But now, here's the thing. Do you feed into that energy by becoming the masculine energy in the relationship because that's what their expectation is? No, because I'm with you. I'm still holding out.
Starting point is 01:43:23 I want that masculine energy. Do you know what I mean? If I'm masculine towards you, it makes me kind of be a little disrespectful to you. Absolutely. If you allow me to be like that, I'm going to probably treat you the way you probably intended on treating me.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Exactly. No, but you should. I think that there's nothing wrong with taking a man out. There's nothing wrong with saying, hey, babe, I got tickets to the game today. I'm taking you to the game. No, I'm not talking about... What's wrong with taking me to S. There's nothing wrong with saying, hey, babe, I got tickets to the game today. I'm taking you to the game. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:43:45 I'm not talking about if you're... What's wrong with taking me to Sizzler? No, you're misunderstanding me. I'm not talking about if you're already in a relationship. If you're already in a relationship, I love the push-pull, the back and forth where, you know, you do something kind for me. I reciprocate and I do something kind for you. Not in a tit-for-tat way. But in the beginning, I as the woman, I need to feel that that interest is there. I'm not going to be, you know, buying you gifts.
Starting point is 01:44:14 I'm not going to be taking you out to dinner. Not to say if I'm out and I see something cute for you. Yes, if it comes from the heart. But I'm not going to be doing that to get you to like me. That's why a lot of women are single right there. They see something they want. They see something they like. They better go see what's going on with that thing that they like or see.
Starting point is 01:44:30 Because they're not going to see it again. Women, if you see something you like, you go approach that man. Hey, how you doing? My name is so-and-so. What's your name? I think you're handsome. Why don't we go out and get something? There's nothing wrong with that.
Starting point is 01:44:39 But if he thought that you were cute, he would have kicked it too. He might be shy. Well, then that's not that masculine energy that I'm looking for. You don't want a fly man either, though. Exactly. That's not that masculine energy. If I'm in your space and you see me, you notice me, and I throw you a little flirt like Claudia said that she does. Listen, here's the alley-oop.
Starting point is 01:44:55 All you need to do is dunk. I'm here. If you don't kick it to me, you don't look in my direction, I'm like, oh, he must not be interested. Not every man can dunk. You might be too short. I do think when you do get with a guy like that, you can put it out there, but I feel like it kind of sets a precedence for the relationship. I'm thinking down the line,
Starting point is 01:45:13 do I have to get on one knee to propose to you? Do I have to protect you? Ladies, don't listen to me. Claudia is single. Claudia, you see a man out there, you better holler. You on a plane and you see a cute guy This isn't about No
Starting point is 01:45:26 Listen the world is Let me tell you something The world is I got three more years The world is tripping on Claudia Okay Because Claudia got everything
Starting point is 01:45:34 I don't even The universe is messing with her It's a test Claudia Well my mother told me It's a test This lady in Italy Put a curse on me When I was in the womb
Starting point is 01:45:41 Is what I heard Jesus Wait that what My mom There's a lady in Italy that they said supposedly said, like she, ah, my dad left this one lady for my mom and took her to America and she was like, basically before
Starting point is 01:45:53 he left, like, your unborn daughter will forever have issues. Jesus Christ. Yeah, so anyways, I'm only dating if I get a recommendation from a good friend or people that are in successful relationships. I don't trust my own meter and picker I don't I should have more time to talk about that all right well go ahead don't move it's the breakfast club on BET the breakfast club your mornings will never be the same are you someone who knows you don't have a condom available
