Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop.

Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat.

Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because, in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeart

Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake your ass up. Breakfast Club is over. Wake up! The Breakfast Club, Envy, and Charlamagne, the voice of the culture. You think I'm gonna come here when this shit ain't hot?

See, y'all are different. Y'all are the culture. It's different. Y'all know what y'all talking about. This is probably becoming the most prominent forum for hip-hop. Being here next to all of you guys, it's really big. Perspective. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Wake up. It's a new day.

This is your time to get it off your chest. Wake up. Whether you're mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this?

This is Kalani. Hey, Kalani, get it off your chest, mama. I'm just so irritated this morning. Yesterday, I'm going to work, and I get into a car accident. I call this dude who I've been messing with, you know, for a little while to come help me. And he basically breaks up with me through text message in that moment that I needed him. Dang. Wow.

He's been wanting to break up with you. Right. What did you ask him to do? Just come pick you up? I just called him and I was like, oh my gosh, I just got into an accident. It's like 730 in the morning, right? At that point. Because I'm going to work. I'm like, my mom's not answering just got into an accident. It's like 7.30 in the morning right at that point because I'm going to work. I'm like, my mom's not answering.

I need you. I know you at work, blah, blah, blah. And he's like, okay, get all the information and call me back. I'm like, okay, off to the cops, whatever, whatever. And I text him, let him know I'm home. Are you going to come over? And he's just like, I think I need time to myself. I think you should respect that because he realized in that moment that he didn't want to be your emergency contact.

You don't want the responsibility. He thought about it. He was like, damn, she got into a bad accident. And the first person she called when she couldn't get in touch with her mama was me. I don't want that responsibility. Yeah, that's kind of foul, mom. I'm sorry. How bad was the accident?

My car is like so messed up. So I'll be taking Lyft or Uber for, like, another week. They want, like, $2,000 to fix the front of the car. Or maybe he feel like he don't want you to ask him for money or he don't want to drive you to work every day, too. But that's the thing. I never ask him for money. I never ask him for anything.

Like, we just have, like, a cool... We started off as co-workers. So we just have, like, a cool relationship like that. that i think you should be happy it just grew into something more you should be happy that you uh dodged this bullet you know what i mean he's clearly showing that you know he doesn't he's not ready for what you might be ready for right now so go enjoy the holidays it still hurts you know but thank you guys for.

Morning. Good morning, sir. You get tired of hearing that? People just run up on you in the airport and just start screaming that all the time? And I love it. I love it. How are you doing today, first and foremost? I'm doing great, thank you.

How are you? Great, too. You're doing good. Doing pretty well. Thanks for having me on. Well, you're in town for Comic-Con, right? Yes. First ever celebrity meet.

Tell us about that. You got these great cards here. Yeah. Yeah. Those are actually gold, and there's silver there, too. Okay. And these are all silver. This one has a gold inlay in it. Yeah. Those are actually gold and there's silver there too. Okay. And these are all silver. This one has a gold inlay in it.

Yep. And they're made by Celebrity Mint out of Houston and distributed via eBay through them basically all over. There will be at the 1030 or mile.

When you first started your wrestling career, did you see things like this? Never. That you'd be trading cards with your... Never. Really? That's amazing.

Never imagined, especially in silver or gold. What made you finally retire for good after 50 years? Well, I had that one match last year. You know, I still feel great. It's funny. People misunderstand when I say I wish I could wrestle again. I mean, I feel great. I'm probably one of the few guys that still with no hip replacements or knee replacements or shoulder.

And I feel great. So I could, but I don't like to. Actually, I could, but I won't. Now, when you first started wrestling. I didn't want to quit. You didn't want to. Vince McMahon's had his time. That's okay.

When you first started wrestling, break us down because you wanted to be different from everybody else and you were different from everybody else so what gave you that mind frame what said this is what I'm going to be I'm going to wear these robes I'm going to be fly that was after the airplane crash 1975 I crashed in an airplane killed a guy and paralyzed two other guys

while I was rehabbing hopefully hopeful of wrestling again I met a guy named George Goddard. I said, why don't we make you a little bit like Buddy Rogers? Buddy was very popular in the 50s and 60s, nature of Buddy Rogers. I just took that, and then the words of Harley Race,

remember Harley? Later, I took Rogers' gimmick to a whole new level. He lied to you. He had no idea who Harley was. He just lied to you. He had no idea who that is. You survived a plane crash in 1975. You survived death a couple of times.

When you survived a plane crash, how did your life change? What is your mentality from that point on? Well, when you're younger, you don't think about it. Really? I was like, well, I made it. I was a little bit intimidated to fly again for the first time,

but I got on one of those private jets today to get here to make sure I could be around time. Okay. And it was great. What a way to go. I may never fly commercial again. When you crashed in the plane did it like explode around you like no we we are out ran out of gas so there's no explosion but it uh normally a small

the twin engine sets on 310 normally when you hit a an orchard of trees or whatever they were called you know the cartwheel plane we were going so fast because we fell from 6 000 feet that we just tore down the whole damn orchard and landed in a railroad embankment that was train tracks on top of it just a half mile from the runway wow how much practice did you guys have to do when it came i don't practice no no there was no practice back then you just work out and just the match is at eight and you're there yeah because i'm a little different than a lot of guys. A lot of guys like to go out and, well, I'm not saying it, but later on because

it's part of the deal now where the guys have to rehearse and all that. But I just was always, the old school way, you gotta hear the crowd. You can't rehearse something that you don't know all the people are gonna react to. And that's one of the problems today when the young kids, they have this match put together,

they walk out the door and the fans aren't reacting the way they want it. And because they don't have the experience, not the ability, but don't have the experience, they can't change it around. And that's why sometimes

they're not getting the reaction from the crowd they want. So when you were wrestling, there was no practice. It's two men in that match and whatever happened, happened. You get slapped in the face. Yeah, we knew the outcome and then... We just know from from there so when you get slapped in the face it wasn't practice

like oh this just slapped me in my face yeah i would tell him to wow yeah hit me with brass knuckles we used to share with brass knuckles in the old days not the real brass knuckles right bust ourselves open we were called the hard ways jesus christ you can break there's still a bone right here it's real really just a little open up. Oh, so you don't even got to hit hard. You just go. Yeah. Okay.

Then I was always at that surgical little thing right here. That was the best part of my work. Get me to my blade and I'm good. You had a blade in your fingers too? A blade in your fingers. So you could have missed and went too far. I have a couple times. Y'all got to have some really nice relationships with each other.

We're not thinking the same thing. To accidentally cut somebody with a blade and the person not be upset at you for it. Oh, no, I was never cutting anybody else. I was cutting myself. Oh, okay, I get what you're saying. I have cut some guys, but they knew it was coming. So you must think this new wrestling is so soft with what you were dealing with. It's not soft because

they do, nothing is ever soft. It's just a different time. It's like Lawrence Taylor. Could Lawrence play right now? Are you kidding? He'd be suspended every game. He'd be fined so much right now. Or Dick Butkus who just passed away. The rules would just change.

It's still a very difficult, very physically demanding sport. These guys are doing stuff now where they're jumping off tables and ladders. I only did that a couple of times. What was your last match like for you when you fought Jeff Jarrett? It was great, except for the fact I didn't anticipate. I psyched myself out. I was dehydrated, and I went out there,

and we put together what I thought was a real match. It wasn't ever going to be a masterpiece, but we put together the match, and then I got real lightheaded, and there were about five minutes in the match, and I said to one of the guys, I'm not feeling good. Well, it just went around the ring like he's saying, like his heart's bad or whatever right so but we got it straight now um but it was just funny i just dehydrated and uh undertaker came back to the dressing room and made me drink three gators and i went

over to kid rocks and partied with the kid all night so i was fine but i thought you said you wish you wish you had picked a different person to have your last match against. No, that's a misinterpretation. And these damn podcasts just say it and it comes out wrong. There's a guy that's still active today, Ricky Morton, from the Rock and Roll Express. And if I were to have a singles match, not a tag,

it's always what they wanted to have, a tag match, because they didn't think I could make to have a singles match, not a tag, they always wanted to have a tag match because they didn't think I could make it through a singles. If I was going to have a singles match now, it would be with Ricky Morton. He's still active and he's doing great. And he was so good. And I'm a much better bad guy than I am a good guy. Oh, absolutely.

But you always were kind of like that. You're the bad guy, but then you're like the bad guy people root for. Yeah. You know what I mean? That's out of respect over the years. Yeah. All right, we got more with Ric Flair when we come back. Don't move.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Charlemagne, the guy we are, The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with wrestling great Ric Flair. Charlemagne? How is it watching your daughter follow in your footsteps? Oh God, it's amazing. That I'll take very seriously. She's the greatest thing going. Yeah. You seen her?

Yeah. Yeah, she's in a different world, different planet, different stratosphere than I was. Did you want her to? No. I said, somebody asked her, and she was doing real well in the business world, graduated college. And I saw her looking, the guy asked her,

and he said, why aren't you doing this? And they had a talent relation at the time. I saw her, I know her like a book. I saw her walk around the room and think to herself, she walked over to me and said, what are you thinking about? I said, I don't know. Why?

She said, I just want to. I think I'm just going to try it. She is now the greatest of all time. Isn't that like the ultimate form of homage to you, though? Well, it's because of our little brother, my son that passed away. Everything, I think, is still in the back of her mind. She's fulfilling the dream that he lived, which makes it even more special and more personal. That's clearly the most important thing to you.

Yeah, absolutely. What do you think sports entertainment is missing right now? I don't think it's missing anything, man. I think it's tracking on all fours. I mean, every time you turn around, Tony is opening up another show, and they've got three live shows a week now. WWE's making more money than ever.

I still believe that wrestling is the greatest form of sports entertainment there is. People will be like, oh, it's not real. Yeah, but they're sold out saying it's not real. They can say whatever they want to say. People watch it. It's not just the blue-collar fans. I mean, doctors lawyers everybody loves it i i don't i think it's a misconception as to how much hard work goes into it especially

if you're on top now because let's say they're they're working a full schedule they still wrestle you know 155 times a year i think at the full schedule right but if you're in the top tier you know what you're doing in the three days off you have? All you're doing is media. Media for the next round. Media for the next match. I mean, there is no time off, really. That's why it's nice that Vince or whoever's calling the shots now understands that kids need to take a month's break here or there.

I was going to ask you, how does your body heal with so many matches? You're talking 155 matches. I wrestled 425. I wrestled over 400 times for eight years we don't rest we just drink and sleep on the plane jesus and then so that's why i got one of the reasons i got into cannabis business that i've been eating xanax trying to sleep on his international flights you know like i've told him somebody asked me about it one week. I wrestled an hour in Sydney, wrestled an hour in Auckland, wrestled an hour in Christchurch, flew to St. Louis, an hour in St. Louis, flew to Atlanta, an hour in Atlanta,

and flew to Tokyo all in the same week. Wow. That's a lot of booze and at least three Xanax. So you like to smoke the weed? I do. I can, but I can't hang with Mike. I would love to see you at Mike Tyson's. I'm saying edibles or what? Edibles.

Edibles can get you off his attic. Have you had Mike Tyson's edibles? Have you had Mike's edibles? Mike Tyson's? Yeah, I've had my own too. I have my own called Woochoos. Really? You should have brought some of that up too. Hell yeah. With these cards. You should have brought some cards and some Woochoos. Let's talk about the reason that you're in town comic-con let's talk about these uh coins and these cars that you have

again yeah we can feel the weight of them yep solid silver guys so what are they doing over here ryan come here come to the mic one of y'all come to the mic so we yeah i can explain it any one of y'all so the nature boy will be releasing our product so we'll post all the prices and all the products that are available and rick and i will be opening our product.

So there'll be redeemables for personalized memorabilia from Rick. A meet and greet with Rick is also available.

So there's a lot of cool stuff that we'll be announcing. Are these limited edition? Yeah, so I made 1,000 of the silver coins in the bigger holders there. I made 1,000 of those. And then of the gold card, there's 500. Wow, so 500 for the gold. Yeah. Okay.

It's pure gold. Isn't that nice? Is there a website? It's celebritymint.com. Celebritymint.com. The distribution will be handled by eBay. Okay. Yes, sir.

That's so cool. Congratulations, man. You deserve it. Thank you, sir. The fact that you got your body beat up and they only paid you $800,000, I love to see you winning that, man. That was just one year. That was just one year.

Yeah, just one year. $500,000 was the most. Before that. Before that. Wow. I did want to ask you, what do you think about celebrities getting into wrestling? Like when you see the Logan Pauls and the bad boys. I like the guys that are actually good athletes, and I've got no problem with that.

I'm not crazy about some of the people they bring in. But, I mean, when they actually couldn't get in the ring, and Bad Bunny was a really good friend of mine. He did pretty good. He did really good. He killed it. He did really good. But that Paul kid, believe it or not,

I know that Sean trained him, which I wasn't aware of, but that Paul kid is damn good. He's an athlete. And he ain't afraid of anything. Yeah. You know, a big part of wrestling is when they start telling you to jump off that turnbuckle and go through the table, I mean, that table doesn't always break the way you want it to. There ain't nothing guaranteed about those tables.

You know, they're not gimmicked or anything. They haven't been taking their screws out. If you got him right dead center in the middle, they won't break the right way. Hold on. So those tables weren't staged? They weren't like... No. Absolutely not like no absolutely not that's a big misconception do you know how many people y'all got hurt that went home and tried that on one of them tables i'm sure especially with the steel chest yeah steel chair that they don't no more headshots because of all the

concussion issues you know i mean guys like mick foley and i mean the stuff mick did is still on if you look at the stuff yeah going off the top of the cage. And then that time, I was just talking to Taker about it the other day when they were on top of the cage. And Taker said, Mick, I can feel the wires breaking on top, right? Mick said, I'm ready. And he fell through, landed on the back of his neck. Teeth went through his nith right to his nose. Oh, my gosh.

Mick has beat his brains out, man. More, more. I mean, thumbtack matches. I only had a couple of those with him. It doesn't hurt while you're out there, but, man, when you go back there and opponent thumbtacks at you and the barbed wire stuff, the barbed wire is really rough. And barbed wire baseball, man, there's nothing good about that.

Jesus. All the time, I thought all that stuff was props. I thought it was props, too. I'm like, there's no way that's real thumbtacks. They gotta be plastic. No. No way that's real barbed wire. But when you hit a guy with a barbed wire, you're gonna hit him one time, and once again, it doesn't hurt when you're out there because the

adrenaline's flowing, right? But when you go back and you've got barbed wire in your head. Y'all had to be on more than adrenaline. You had to be on something. There's no way y'all would have No, I mean, they didn't stick it in. The barbed wire didn't stick in you adrenaline. You had to be on something. There's no way y'all would have been able to do it. The bar bar doesn't stick in you, but when your adrenaline's running, you'd be surprised. Wow. Well, Ric Flair,

we appreciate you joining us. Thank you so much. I can't wait till we get a Ric Flair movie, man. I know. Guess what? It's coming down. Based off your book? To be a man? No, I can't tell you anymore. I just got the word. The writer's strike is over.

Wow. Congrats. You're going to get a Ric Flair. M-A-R-V-E-L. Wow. Yeah. That's Marvel. I can't say no more. He can't say no more.

Wow. Can't say no more. All right. All right. It's The Breakfast Club. It's Ric Flair. I want to come back. Anytime.

Anytime. All right. Thank you. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings to come back. Anytime. Anytime. All right. Thank you. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Are you someone who knows you don't have to sacrifice comfort for quality? 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. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our special guest co-host, Cappuccino here, of course, from Power 99 out in Philly. So we're asking 800-585-1051.

Dingo is a gentleman that calls all the time on The Breakfast Club during Get It Off Your Chest. And he called this morning about his weekend, and this is what he said. I just flew this girl out this past weekend. It was whack. I ain't week here. It was whack. I ain't gonna lie. It was whack. Got out to Kendra G. I was on her single show a couple weeks back,

and, you know what I'm saying, put up my little spiel, had some shorties, hit me up. It was cool. On one that, you know, I decided to fly her out. We was having some good conversation because she was from Atlanta, right? So I got her out. We was chilling. some good conversation because she was from Atlanta, right? So I got her out. We was chilling.

We was talking. I paid for everything, right? Took care of her. Took care of the arrangements. Took care of the hotel. Took care of everything we did. But she wasn't really giving me the vibes that it was trying to be romantic. It seemed like she was just looking for a trick.

Tyler, she just met you the first time. You trying to smash somebody, Tyler? I think you were looking for the first time. No, no, no. We talked for like a good two weeks or so prior to her coming out, right? And we could have established this like, hey, you don't want to do nothing like that. That's cool. You just got to let me know before I spend all this money and make all these arrangements and all that.

You feel me? I feel like that's fair because you coming out, you flying out, and I'm taking care of everything, and I told you that. Right? And you get here, and you're like, oh, I ain't trying to be on that, which is cool. I get that. That's fine. But tell me I'm fine. So we're asking 800-585-1051.

Ladies, what makes you not want to hook up with a guy? All right? He said, you know, I guess they had a discussion. He thought he was going to get cheeks. He thought the vibe was there. And he got nothing. He was upset about it. Yeah, I think that's a very important question to ask.

Because we never asked that when we had these, you know, conversations about women flying out. Because a woman gets on a plane. Clearly, she wants to go. She gets there. Clearly, she wants to be there. But something happens once they meet the individual that turns them off. I just wonder what it could be.

I'll be honest. Did you ask the woman in the room? No, I'm not speaking for the ladies, but I will say this. I don't think, and shout out to Dingo, he calls all the time. I don't think Dingo had a real conversation about the vibe. Because how can you have that conversation? When R. Kelly flew you out, did y'all have a conversation beforehand? When R. Kelly flew you out and left you sitting in the hotel room,

did y'all have a conversation beforehand? Yeah, we were doing a mixtape. Okay. Yeah, we were doing a mixtape. I wasn't expecting nothing. Everything was understood. Everything was understood. It was a mixtape.

It was understood. But I'm saying, how do you have that conversation? Hey, I'm going to fly you out. I'm going to smash. You can't have that conversation. That's why I know they didn't have that conversation.

You can have that conversation. I mean, you can. These days, everyone's bold and upfront about stuff, so that conversation was probably had, but as Charlamagne said, you know, when you can. These days, you know, everyone's bold and upfront about stuff. So that conversation was probably had. But as Charlamagne said, you know, when you get there in person, things change. But what changed your mind, Cappuccino?

If I'm down. If you're not married. If you're married. Right, right, yeah, yeah. If I'm down with smashing, cool. But, you know, if you drop your pants and something just ain't right, you know, it's like, oh. You mean too small? That or maybe if I see some stains going on, it's like, oh, you know, the self-care ain't there.

You know, that could be one thing. So maybe a small dingo or some doo-doo stains. Something, yeah. I would think the guy might be too thirsty, too, because even if you know that you and the young lady are supposed to get it in, you don't got to act like that the whole time. Well, I think she'll know from jump when he says, I'm going to fly you out and we're going to do all this. That alone tells me you're a bit thirsty because you don't even know me we only been talking for two weeks and you're gonna fly me out and everything is no holds barred type situation

hey that's a little thirsty it's a little thirsty let's go to the phone lines hello who's this hello hi this is shay from columbia south carolina what's happening talk to us sh, what's happening? Talk to us, Shay. What's going on? Talk to us. What's your thought, Shay? So my thought is that, you know, she could have just not felt the vibe. A lot of times, the way we date now, everybody talk and text so much and you're able to manipulate

your personality that when you get in front of each other, nobody has nothing to say. And he could have been arguing and she could have been like, I was, but nah. It's no different than when we dated in the 90s. Once you start interacting with each other, it's like, yeah, this is not what I thought it was gonna be.

It was lame. You ever got flown out? I have, and I've had that happen before, too. Where they flew you? Myrtle Beach from Columbia? Where they flew you? No. Where they flew you? Huhble Beach from Columbia? What'd they flew you? Shut up, man. No. No. What'd they flew you?

What'd they flew you? Huh? What'd you got flown to? Vegas. Oh, okay, okay. Okay. And what happened? He didn't look the way he was supposed to look?

It's not about look. It's the personality. It's like you talk so much during that time frame that when you get in front of each other, you don't have nothing to really ask. There's nothing to engage each other in. So, Shay, how does that work? He flies you from South Carolina to Vegas. So, y'all staying

in the same room and you dumb fall. So, it's not like you can turn around right then and there. So, what do you do? I told him the truth. Oh.

So, y'all slept in the same bed, but that was it? That was it. He ain't try to rub up or hump on you or nothing? Right. Oh, of course they tried,

but I mean, it's not my fault you killed the move. That's right. And no means no. That your nothing. Right. Oh, of course they tried, but I mean, it's not my fault. You killed the mood. That's right. Okay. And no means no. That's right. Exactly.

Thank you, Shay. Thank you. We got Cece on the line. Cece, good morning. Good morning. How y'all doing? What's up, Cece? What's your thoughts, mama?

I feel like this. There's multiple things, but they said they were talking for two weeks, so maybe she got there and his vibe was off or his vibe was different. Maybe, you know, people know people are different in person also some women just like to be promiscuous and he must have knew that if before she came or maybe the deal was little so she started acting different our women don't want to feel like something is just transactional

you paid for a flight you paid for some food you paid for me for a room now i'm just supposed to give you something yeah like maybe she don't want to feel like that. A prostitute. She don't want to feel like a prostitute. That's right. We got a brother on the line, Eddie. Yeah, what's going on? Eddie's looking at this different, Eddie.

What's your thoughts? Yeah, man. So, I know for a fact, man, chicks just be using dudes, man. They lie to you, whatever, you know, just to get flown out for the food or whatever. I mean, where I'm from, girls do that all the time. My cousins, sisters, whatever, they'll go chill with a dude, go out because they know they're going to get them drunk and eat,

and then, you know, they're gone on their way. So does that not make the guy a sucker then? No, because at the end of the day, if you really play, you still get her. I mean, that's what you're there for. You do it to meet and greet her. If you get her and you really play her, I mean, you should be able to turn her. I just don't understand what's going on. You're there to come mess with you.

Why can't y'all just meet and greet on the first trip? You know what I'm saying? And then have her wanting to come back, you know? And then maybe on the second or third time, y'all might get it in. Like, why you got to force it on the first trip? I like that. Yes. Yeah, right.

And sometimes it be like that. As long as you have a good time, you go out to eat, y'all laugh, have some giggles. I mean, what's wrong with that? Next time y'all can make do-do-do. If not, wait till the next time. I mean, hey. Sometimes you gotta wait for that cake. You feel me? Yeah, and the real

player thing to do, and don't ask me because I'm a retired player, so I don't know anything about this, but you fly her out, y'all have a good time, y'all't ask me because I'm a retired player, so I don't know anything about this. But you fly her out. Y'all have a good time. Y'all kick it. Love, you know, love. Eat all that good stuff. Maybe the next time y'all had such a good time,

you'd be like, yo, I want to come see you now. So you fly out to her. Okay. You know what I mean? Is he expecting her to pay for that flight? No, no, no. I'm going to fly on my own dime. You know what I mean?

Just because I had such a good time with you the first time. I guarantee you, if you play her like that, you fly out to see her, you're probably going to get what good time with you the first time. I guarantee you, if you play her like that, you fly out to see her, you're probably going to get what you was looking for the first time. Kizna! Yes? Hey, good morning, Kizna. Good morning, good morning. Now, we're asking 800-585-1051. Ladies,

what makes you not want to give a guy some? Or not want to vibe off with the guy? Talk to us. Honestly, if they was talking from the floor and they already lined it up, that mother****** talked himself out the drawers. Hey. Okay? Sometimes men talk themselves out the drawers.

They talk too much, talk too fast. Okay. And so maybe his vibe was whack. I feel like you calling from the Bronx. Definitely the Bronx. No, I'm from the Bronx, aren't you? Okay. I can hear it in your throat.

She said Brooklyn. Oh, Brooklyn or the Bronx? No, I'm a Brooklyn girl. Okay. But to be honest, men really fuck they stuff out the drawers. Sometimes you'll be like, yeah, when I get over there, it's going to be on. Get there, he's like, this clown. Like my mother said, every man you sleep with is your potential baby father. She probably didn't want to waste her coochie on him.

Damn, Cardi? No, that's real, though. But what she's saying is real, and I wish more people would look at that serious. They can kiss and think like that, yeah. I wish guys thought like that and women thought like that. Every man you sleep with

is your potential baby father. Girl, that would have been 18 years of bad luck. You better sleep that. It's not that serious. That's right. Five minutes for 18 years of suffering ain't worth it.

That's right. Minister Farrakhan said the way that people treat the science of breeding is like you rolling dice in the back of a moving pickup truck bobby's mad this is the last quote bobby you mad huh bobby no i just think uh people's expectations be kind of crazy um only knowing somebody after two weeks and flying out expecting them to pay for everything but you're not returning the favor is kind of crazy to me. Clearly, y'all are not serious.

So, Bobby, you would have given him some cheeks, Bobby? Yes, I would have given him some cheeks. Just because he flew you out and paid for some food? Just because he flew you out and paid for some food? She's from the Bronx. I mean, food, if he took her shopping or whatever. I mean, my thing is, though, if you're allowing a man to pay for your plane ticket, for the residency, for your food, for clothes and all of that, what is he getting in return? Like, how do you not expect him to expect something in return?

He's getting my conversation. He's getting my company. Bobby's giving the cheeks. Okay, but if the conversation was had prior that he's not flying you out just for some company, then there's a problem. I respect it. I respect it. I just don't think a man should have that expectation. And why do all that? Why don't you just get

you a prostitute from the city? Why are you flying in stuff? Maybe she's flying. Maybe he can't find somebody that's flying in his city, so he gotta fly her out. Bobby, where you from, Bobby? I'm from Cali. Well, Bobby, we're gonna hook you up with Dingo, alright? We're gonna fly her out. Bobby, where you from, Bobby? I'm from Cali. Okay. Alright. Well, Bobby, we gonna hook you up with Dingo, alright?

We gonna fly you out and see how that works. Alright. Goodbye, Bobby. Damn. Jesus Christ. I think Dingo's just actually mad because of how much money he spent. He didn't set a limit for himself. I think at the end of the day, that's why he's upset. He said he spent like a G. Yeah. He said over a G. What's the moral of the story? I just don't think you should expect nothing from

nobody. You know what I mean? I think even if you fly that person out, you should just fly that person out with the expectation that y'all gonna have a good time. Whatever that good time entails, God bless. But just have a good time. Don't have no expectation of what you think that good time is gonna be. Because that good time might not

be what you want it to be. And that's ending with some cheeks. Right. Because she may have had a good time. That's right. He just didn't. Damn it. All right. It's The Breakfast Club on BET. The Breakfast Club.

Just say that. Just say that. Then I'm like, okay, I feel you. I feel you. I just feel like I deserve my shit. Like, I'm here.

Like, God put me here for a reason. That is true. And this is what he had for me. This was destined for me. So don't say I don't deserve it. Just say you were salty and then I can my shit. I'm here. God put me here for a reason. That is true. And this is what he had for me. This was destined for me. So don't say I don't deserve it. Just say you were salty. And then I can respect it. Well, congratulations.

Thank you. But when people say you was the next Oprah, I was like, y'all don't know where Carisha going to be. Carisha could be the next Oprah. I definitely said that. I am. I don't see why you're not. When I say the black Oprah,

I mean coming from the hood, Oprah Locker, Section A, with food stamps, like that. Like to having a podcast, to being one man. I never, like I never imagined this to me. So I feel like, you know, I got to run. And I'm doing everything that I thought I wouldn't do. So I feel like the sky's the limit for me.

Why wouldn't you dream big? Who else is the bar? If you're in that space, like who else is the bar other than somebody like Oprah like oh right do you feel like people don't appreciate y'all as a group as a single as you know solo artists as a rapper as a podcaster do you feel like they don't give you the respect you deserve yeah i feel like i don't get the respect i deserve i feel like i'm always i'm always throwing that single doubt even in the group it's like oh she can't rap she can't do this but when we go on stage y'all singing and work for her when y'all see me y'all falling out so what is it like it have to make sense and it's like to a point where i'm very humble i don't put it in nobody's face

like it's like oh she can't do this she can't do that like the numbers that i make on my website just off of my card game like i made a million dollars in 15 days i made 500,000 last month what you mean oh we're gonna play a game yeah like i could really be putting in y'all face and making out each other's but that's not me that's not my character i just be chilling but don't say i can't do this i ain't like like i ain't bringing it to the table when i do that i don't feel it i don't like that this has been happening with you guys for so long though like at this point why even let it like why even address it why even you know what i mean like y'all at this point it's a popular thing to say because they've been saying this since day one but it's like at some point in time it's tiring like don't act like you know i

ain't give y'all a feature on like y'all wasn't singing my like y'all don't know my lyrics like y'all don't like i don't bring nothing to the table like i don't anybody wouldn't feel that anybody wouldn't want that on them how do you feel about it jt um i feel like they do me the same way like i had my time when they you know bash me all the time they still do but i don't know like y'all have to know that comes with the territory yeah i mean i think she feel like she gets singled out i feel the same way like a lot of people say a lot of stuff about me like oh she lazy or she don't do this or she don't do that or but it's just i do things my way like you know and i do what's for me and i'm not trying to compete or keep up i just do things at my own pace so when people come at me i just i'm good at rapping you get i'm trying

to say that's all i've been rapping since i was a little girl like it comes off naturally for me so I feel like people will give me my flowers in rapping that's my thing to do I don't think that they singling her out because they single me out for a lot of stuff that she do like so much that she do and I just don't think that it's that type of thing like I don't think that I think they hate on you just as much as they hate on me it's equal hate just as much you feel some type of way I can feel some type of way because they'll be like oh do this do this do this and it's so much more pressure because as soon as i do it and i feel everybody on my ass and they like you get on trying to say like oh jt go solo go solo go solo okay i i take that risk and i do that everybody on my ass so it's just as it's it's just as much pressure and

it it's equal like i don't think that it's like singling nobody out i ass so it's just as it's it's just as much pressure and it it's equal like I don't think that it's like singling nobody out I think that it's very equal hey like if you get something they like where hers at you get what I'm trying to say and it's I got mine but I'm not like that and I'm not you get what I'm trying to say like people it's the same thing like they'd be like okay JT got this going on I mean if, if she posts something, it's like, oh, Carisha. For two years, they were saying that. Like, oh, Carisha done left the group. She gone.

Like, she got this going on. She got that going on. JT better find a job because Carisha done with her for two years straight. When she drops Carisha, please. Like, a lot of stuff. And then when I start doing my thing and being more, like, actively in my space,

you know, what I'm good at, and people start giving my floppers for it then it's feeling like oh okay it's more hate towards you and it's not that you think it's a persona like you know

I ain't never say that you do you think it's more hate towards me I'm just telling you how I feel it ain't got nothing to do with you I just feel like what I'm reading about me

because I see y'all been clearly debating about this y'all been clearly having healthy arguments about who get more hate no no no no

I just it's not even a debate right now I'm just saying like i don't think that is hate towards one of the nut up i don't think either i think both of y'all get smoked i'm not i'm not i'm not i'm not saying like okay she only gets what i think we equally get smoked like we both get hated on equally as the city girls there's no jabs at her like at all never but i'm just putting it out there that as the city girls we both get hate and we get hate individually we get hate as a group we get hate about everything because i feel like people buy more into our personality uh personal life and all type of we've been through we came out a lot of it though like when you talk about you know caricia taking her kids to school every day people don't know I see it because you tag us and you listen, right?

Yeah. Or when I see you taking your kids to the fashion show. I was at the fashion show, and I seen you with your son. It wasn't the lights, it's glitters. You're loving your son and supporting your son. I think a lot of times, people don't see that. I see it all the time because I'm there, but I'm like, she's a dope mom. People don't see it.

Yeah, but they'll hate on that, too. Yeah. Yeah. That's why I don't like the mother on the internet, though. I feel like they can't read everything with the city girls because we came out so raw and we came out so like we came out as ourselves though that's our culture you know what i'm saying like people think that we show us in miami we're gonna buy a chanel bag before we pay our rent we just always

been we stealing and robbing our priorities priorities up in Miami so we always been No it's the truth our priorities so up down there but that's how we was raised to like have it and like want it and stunt we some stunt ass b****es we came out stunt so always gonna pray on them down for who always trying to stunt. I said Carisha put a $70,000 bag on the table. She said, no, it's $80,000. It ain't never to stun on people. It's literally like, I'm going to get me a nice car and I'm going to have me regardless of what. That's why when people try to clown us, regardless of what, me and Carisha going to win because that's how we was raised.

Like, I'm going to do whatever to save how I'm living now. No matter what. You're not going to go back to scamming. I might. No, you won't, JT. Cut it out. I'm just playing, but what's wrong with that? I'm just joking.

No, I won't go back to scamming at all. I don't even recommend scamming at all, but I'm just saying that's how we was to raise on survival and stunt. All right, we got more with the City Girls when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Hey, guys. I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running

It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with the City Girls. Charlamlamagne do you think y'all both still city girls because we see y'all booed up you know we see raising the kids and stuff like that are y'all still city girls we ain't booed up with no bro but you still booed up because on the album you say the only we could get that was that was another thing about the city girls you know y'all was out there doing what y'all want to do sexually liberated see he's a projector he's a projector we have conversations in this room

all the time about us as women having standards of what we want where we want to go don't want to go first dates whatever and he see he says that's toxic and I'm like if you require a certain thing as a woman that's what you require because y'all be shitting on everything you saw that list that they had that you can't take a woman on first dates.

Everything was on there. People don't want to go to Applebee's for a first date. He said that that's toxic. A bar for drinks, hookah lounge. You can't go to none of them places. A house.

Now think about the type of guys y'all got right now. You don't want to go to their mansion? That kind of person ain't go to his house? Yes. As long as I'm with him, I don't give a fuck where we go. We can go to Applebee's.

See what I'm saying? That's me. I'm with the vibes, baby. Just take me as long as we breathing together in the same car in the same way. Because you like the guy. Yeah. And that's all I be trying to tell them.

Focus on the man, not all the superficial stuff. Do you like the... If you like the person, you'll go anywhere with them. But if she said she didn't want to go to Applebee's, it's fine, too. No, she said she want to go to Applebee's.

But I'm saying if she... I just don't understand why when it comes to women and the standards... She want to go to Applebee's with somebody she likes. She likes. Exactly. But you got to get... First date, you don't even know if you comes to women and the standards. She want to go to Applebee's with somebody she likes. She likes. Exactly. Yeah. But you got to get, first date, you don't even know if you like a person.

No. Sometimes you do. No, I don't know. That's why you went on a date with him. Something he said made you say, you know what, I'm going to go kick it with him. Now, he might mess it up on the first date. But, okay, so this is not pertaining to us. But I'm just saying, like, sometimes guys be online kicking it like they bigger than

what they is. So, your expectations for a guy probably is high of how they put it out on themselves so if you flexing and you flashing and you acting like you that and you pull up on me and you take me to applebee's yes i'm gonna be devastated but what if you pull up on a in a maybach you know maybach he got all the money he just want to go to applebee's he is who he says he is man why are taking you down. Man, why we talking about Applebee's? Let's be for real. You know what I'm saying? Like, let's for real. So where you want to go?

I want to go to Pocky State. I don't even know what that is. It's a restaurant. It's a restaurant. Y'all, man, you been on this radio for 50 years, baby. I know you got some money. I'm struggling out here, JT. I know you got some money.

You got to do a scam or two, man. You is so Roxy. You so messy. Why you so Roxy? Why you keep bringing up like like you so messy like you so Roxy like you keep bringing up like you now you so messy

like you like I I you don't want me to teach you this like

I'm so bad cause she came in ready to swing on him you know why because I love Charlamagne

I love the Breakfast Club I always say that and I always say Charlamagne is hard on the bitch one thing about you but you always love the city girls

coming out the gate so I always fuck with you but then I'm like the city girls coming out the gate. So I always fuck with you. But then I'm like, damn, I'm only 29. I came from nothing.

I deserve that. Yeah, I don't want you to feel like that. I deserve that. I don't care what nobody say.

I deserve that. Y'all should probably love because Carisha was about to hit you. I love Carisha, man.

I ain't even want to. Don't say y'all. I ain't even want to. Him. You should apologize to Carisha.

Only thing I was saying was, and I understand exactly where you're coming from, I want you to drop more. If you drop more, I'm like, yo, you can't even front on. She said she don't want to drop more. I get it.

You know what I mean? But there are people that come out daily and weekly that, you know, really put in a lot of time. And that s*** be tiring, though. Like, when you put out every week, it's like, god damn, you gotta let the audience grow, let the interview grow. Like, give people time to get into it. I don't want

my s*** to drop every week. I probably will, but it was my first time trying it out you know i gotta learn how to talk too i feel the nervous i disagree i swear i don't want you i love everything when i watch y'all on live i just i eat it up like i don't want you to change that because you feel like that's gonna do anything different that's what we love you for you can't if you can't get out of summer walker or trina what you did if they don't talk like you right you speak their language you speak that language no i don't know don't think you got to change how you talk i ain't learn how to talk in 25 years so that's what i'm saying you just said that so i just sit there and say i ain't deserve my work i didn't say you didn't deserve it people come on there and they just like literally it'd be a vibe we got hookah we drinks. Y'all ain't got no hookah up here.

We got drinks. Y'all ain't got no vibes up here. We got a candle. And I'll come to you. If you in New York, I'm putting up in New York. I'll put up on you and I got the vibe. We ain't got no hookah. Were you a part of this?

I didn't say she don't deserve it. I think that she deserves it. I personally think she deserves it. I said, Carisha, you know what? don't deserve it I said you were wrong I think that she deserves it I personally think she deserves it I said Carisha you know what you do deserve it I don't want no smoke with Carisha I love the city girl I would love for the breakfast club to win y'all my favorite though I would never front on y'all

Oh the breakfast club was in the category But let's talk about y'all man Real ass horse No it's not I said that Oh so that's not really it what's the name of it come on man

it's not real ass man you be saying stuff and then I come back and they be like it be wrong y'all gotta know that I always say shit and I just be playing around

that's my personality and then I was in a bag so it's not real ass horse what's the name of that that's literally my personality y'all been knowing me for like five years now

goddamn I thought real ass was a dope ass title nah it was just like we had came up with raw and JT would tell you why and I was like ooh real ass horse

and then she was like she laughed at me like what raw mean no condom real ass women raw is like in your in your authentic form like

your natural state like you raw like you who you are like if you go get some raw meat not you know if you go to the grocery store the meat is raw and it's like it's not all made up it's not fabricated it's just you like being yourself so that's why we named it raw because i feel like we are wrong

you don't think so absolutely that's why people love you does the conversation that people are having about like first week sales do y'all care about stuff like that or do y'all like we don't i mean i care like i think that of course like nobody want to see that online about theyself and i feel like at the same time you get in what you get what you put in it like i feel like collectively we didn't do what we had to promote the album we and i was gonna say i don't even know what that means anymore because i don't see record labels no i really didn't know the album came out last week until you told me how would you usually you see people it wasn't a lot of. I feel like this interview

should have been last week to promote the album. Yeah, and I said that, but they was like, when we asked about like coming to the Breakfast Club before,

they said they're like, oh, when we come, it's going to drive people to the house. I don't know what the was going on, but what I could say is you get in what you put out.

Like, if you don't go hard with promoting your shit and putting it in people's face, like, of course it's going to miss people. And I feel like it missed a lot of people.

And then by the time people discovered it, it was discovered and I feel like it missed a lot of people and then by the time people discovered it, it was discovered as a joke. Like, a lot of people found out through our record sales because that was probably the most viral thing.

I found out because of the tweet, the real asshole's tweet. I was like, oh. See, that was good marketing. Yeah,

that was good marketing. I said it. That was good. It got a lot of people talking. I just feel like with us, we've just been wanting this album to come out for so long

and a lot of these songs that's on the album we wanted as single like two years ago so kind of like we just was wanting these songs i want this album out so when it finally came out it was just all over the place yeah so who called is that the label y'all last week this week i'm seeing a lot and then we were excited because i think they said jt was supposed to host one day then Carisha was supposed to host another day and then both of y'all hosted together

that would have been fire they said y'all ain't want to wake up in the morning I never want to wake up in the morning but that ain't what I said I thought that would have

been dope I don't remember I don't remember no I do remember what I said I said that I do want to talk about the album and I feel like hosting I got to talk about other people so that's what I said i do remember what i said i said that i do want to talk about the album and

i feel like hosting i got to talk about other people so that's what i said yeah so that's what i said i personally said i don't want to host because i thought it was together always together i didn't know it was supposed to be one one and then separately yeah i didn't understand i wasn't on that call that's that's why i was on it but i wasn't on it but you know stuff like that fuels the y'all don't get along yeah yeah it do like why why we was even there separately you know like but sometimes that's how people request things or sometimes what she interested in i'm not interested in like we grown this man like you know what i'm trying to say like we don't grew out the twin beds like we out of the twin beds so it's just like that's what it is it's not it's not beef like it's not that at all But if y'all would have called one first and the other one first

Oh my god, like they would have been on that like damn wanna sit in the same room together And it's just like somebody said I heard they don't even ride in the car same car together Me and this girl have our own money. You think we want to sit on each other lap? Yo people are I mean we don't Holly Be throwing each other under the bus though. We don't throwall be throwing each other under the bus, though. I don't throw him. Like, we ain't throwing each other under the bus. I ain't never throw him under the bus. He be kept throwing you under the bus this whole show.

He be like, don't say me. Don't say me. Oh, that's true. Now, we go back and forth on the show. Nah, but we brothers. Yeah, we brothers. Nah, we brothers. All right.

He just likes kids. You know what I'm saying? You got to give him a hard time. That's all. Yeah. All right, we got more with the City Girls when we come back. So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.

We're back. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy, Lauren LaRosa. we are here, the City Girls are here, we're still kicking it with them, their album is out right now, Charlamagne? Now JT, you got the No Bars song on the album. Mm-hmm. You know people hear that, they automatically, this is the introduction to her solo album. The launch of the solo album, people would say. Okay, so, when I made No Bars, I made No Bars at the studio. That wasn't my intention, it's like, for people to start seeing that, but yeah, I made No Bars at the studio. That wasn't my intention for people to start seeing that.

But yeah, I do want to do a solo project. Yeah, but you should do a solo project though, right? But listen, why you call it No Bars when you rapping your ass off? Because it wasn't my intention to have bars. You know, sometimes when you're going and you rap and you be like, oh, I'm hitting it with bars. No, I just wanted to talk my shit and express myself. And I think that's what music is for.

For you to really get what you got off your chest and say what you want to say like this week i got hella inspiration but i feel like no bars wasn't supposed to be like you listening to me like oh like i be watching like battle rap for that like reaction but yeah it wasn't for that it was really an empowerment song because i was feeling down that day and i feel like that song does do that for girls and get them home that's what it's really all about it ain't about nothing else just to clear it up the group is not breaking up because a lot of people heard that single like oh the group's breaking up the group is not breaking up y'all doing that there was a video from like the listening that went viral people were like okay this shows that they're over like people always do that to y'all i'd be drunk i was i was like i was drinking and then she was late so i think i was just

sitting there like i was like just vibing to this i think that it was about yeah i love that tweet you put out too when you were saying how a lot of females got their direction from y'all yeah they did what happened oh yeah and we were trying to front on us because i was listening to the radio that day you see that um who was in here sticking up for you? Jess Hilarious because I thought she was going to be here today. She out of town. She went on vacation.

Bring that ass back. Who was in here sticking up for y'all? You. Okay. Now, when y'all said direction. Wait,

Karisha got, why you put me on before we came in and we had beef with people? Karisha got her chop in the bag. She got her chop in the bag.

I didn't know that y'all was talking okay let her tell me what happened okay no he always rooting for the city girls he was like you know um jt had did a little tweet and she was like you know the direction and then and he was like i don't know about that like he don't really know what like what direction let's talk about it that's what i was asking what direction do y'all mean because i didn't understand the tweet that's what i said i don't know. A lot of the direction how to move your hands, your gestures, your like people to this day

still saying period after they talk. And please don't say your mama taught you that in your house because it wasn't. On carpets, on TV, it wasn't. None of that was going on. That was not a thing. Like that was not. You was not saying period. That was not your thing. That's how we used to do our drop sign. What's up? It's the City Girls. We need all our rich n****s real ass was that's how we used to do our drops what's up it's the city girls what's up it's the city girls we need all our rich n****s

real ass like that's the city girls for real for real for real pull it up and y'all made city girls a lifestyle like everybody thought

of being city girls and city boys after y'all came out what's wrong with us giving ourselves our flowers like if I feel like that's how I feel b**** ain't gonna change my mind

I know for a fact that we were a big part of culture and you know sometimes you just you have to appreciate yourself and give yourself your flowers and remind yourself because ain't nobody else gonna remind you they're gonna move on like people are sheep they're gonna go to what's flocking and what's going on at the time and i'm not mad because me too i'll be on to the next thing too but i feel like for sure a lot of ways that a lot of girls do things, started doing things, not do things,

but started doing things was because of the city girls. I feel like that for a fact. Like, I feel like that for a fact. Carisha went on her crazy run when I was in prison. You know, like, Free JT. Like, I think I was, like, besides, like, Kim and Remy and all that, I was the last bitch that went to jail. But I feel like, want to be around, connected to, like, rich men. And, you know, like, oh, I was the last bitch that went to jail. But I feel like want to be around, connected to like rich

men and you know like, oh I want a rich bitch. A lot of the talk. When that tweet came out, I think people were taking, when you said direction, I think it was, a lot of people thought like you was saying, y'all was saying y'all started it. That's why I said, let them clarify what direction these, because when I heard that. We revamped it. Revamped it, absolutely. We revamped it. Because when I first

think, I'm thinking Trina, I'm thinking Kim. We revamped it. Yeah, exactly. We revamped it. when i first think i'm thinking trina i'm thinking kim i'm thinking yeah that's exactly we revamped it don't don't don't do that so how you feel now but now when they put it like that yeah they're the ones that said the period and all that absolutely positively i feel like we came out authentically ourself jumping out like regular girls then we started getting our jewelry our chain flexing our like you know watches and all that but we still looking normal you get what i'm trying to say like we still looking normal we hopping out of raves and rose races and all of that but we still looking like normal girls so now we giving normal girls okay i want to be in a rave i want to do this but that's miami right

there like in miami we want to flex we south Beach, we see Lamborghinis going up and down. We see all of that all the time. That's why I said we came out as, like, stunting. And I feel like right now, stunting ain't that cool. The people broke, like you said. Do y'all feel like y'all got an issue with timing? And what I mean by that is, like, the first album came out, JT, you was in prison around that time, right?

And then I love that album y'all dropped in 2020, but it was during COVID. You know, I feel like if was in prison around that time, right? And then, I love that album y'all dropped in 2020, but it was during COVID. You know, I feel like if y'all, I feel like if people was outside during that time, oh my God. That leaked, right? Yeah. Y'all would've had the biggest out

if everybody was outside during that time. Even this album, I feel like we were talking this earlier. This is a summer album. I wish I got this in the summer. This is a summer album. Yeah, I feel like we got a bad timing thing. I feel like our timing, our management is poor i feel like it goes into

a lot of that like i feel like we got poor management poor timing like it's really never no strategy we just out here like you get what i'm trying to say it's just like why because we had a breakfast club a week after our thing um and this is a dj's album dj's should love this album because it's nothing but club bangers but if they're not hearing that it's hot they they want to be where what's hot, they're not going to play nothing that they don't feel like is the hottest thing. You get what I'm trying to say? Like, even if it's good.

Even if it's good. So, but I feel like, I mean, the album is remembered. I don't think that City Online went for guy. No, I still played it. Who's the manager? Talk about him. We don't have a manager. Do y'all want management?

Hell yeah. I don't think y'all happy with the industry. Damn, you talking as a therapy. No, we got vibes too. Y'all pissed about something. I think y'all have it there too, though. Because even with your brand, when you dropped your merch, I was like, this is so fire for her.

It fits where she is in the culture. With Karisha, please, it fits. I think y'all just got to put the pieces to the puzzle a little bit more so that the vehicle y'all got is already kind of off of me and Carisha like if we being honest like it's just like we building these lanes by ourselves like Carisha getting out there she doing her thing and then I'm getting out there and like nobody is managing me and getting me this this stuff at all like it's just me like that beats by Dre was fire I mean yeah but it

all come off of me taking risks with pictures. And like, okay, let me put this picture out. And then I'm going to get backlash from my community. Of course, they're going to be like, oh, she look a mess. She look a man. And then it'll be somebody else like reaching out, trying to find out how to get like more. She DM'd me like, can you do this beast by Dre? It's in Paris.

Can you get there? Could you be there? And I'm like, all right, I got to make this work. So you got to fly yourself out and all that? They paid me, but I've used the money to get over there. This is making so much sense now because I have reached out to have JT do stuff, and we don't know who to talk to. Yeah. People are, you'll talk to somebody, and they'll be like,

JT will be on the phone at such and such, and JT never shows up. It is. But that's why it looks like it's growing so divided. It's not that we divided, and we want to be divided. It's like we out here hustling because it's like if we don't put ourselves out there to do what we got to do and build our brand and this that and the third then you know what you feel like that you gotta think hell yeah you gotta think quick baby you gotta think like for real you gotta think quick this show's slowing down you know it's just like a it was just like a lot so it was just like for me i'm like okay

what i'm gonna do i gotta get out here i some money. I got to get in the game. And it worked. Ain't nothing for the economy. Even with your show, do you want to put out your show more? Yeah, I do. I do. Okay. It's just that like for me, I got to really like see who I want to interview. They give me a list of people to interview.

I'm like, I want to talk to them people. You know, I really want to be interested. I really want to know about the person before they come on the show. I don't want to just be, you know, just sitting there like, oh, throwing jabs at people just to get views. I know I really want to know about the person before they come on the show i don't want to just be you know just sitting there like oh throwing jabs at people just to get views i know i really want to talk to this person i really want to get into this person so that's what it was is it true that there's a sukiyana interview that never came out yeah we were so drunk because you get drunk on commission please you got that why it didn't come out we were strong and then it kept raining it kept raining the rain kept the vibe like we was in Miami. It was like, it'll rain. We have to stop.

Come back. Then we end up getting so drunk. If that interview ever come out, baby. Mm-hmm. Like, not even, we not even gonna get, like, fake conversations. The conversations that we had was just crazy. Why y'all don't do a show together? Because I'm sure that y'all two have, like, such interesting conversations where y'all wouldn't even need guests.

Like, why don't y'all do a show together? I mean, that's her thing. You know what I'm trying to say? Like, I feel like that's her calling. And that's her thing. And, like'm trying to say like i feel like that's her calling and that's her thing and like you don't always have to do that all right we got more with the city girls when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with the city girls charlamagne couple more questions jt why you had to throw your phone at uzi at the award okay so let me tell y'all why i threw my

So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit me with the heel. Did she get donkey in the name, please, Debbie? Absolutely. I have become Donkey of the day so if you ever feel i need to be a donkey man hit it with the heel did she get

donkey in the name please tell me i have become donkey of the day at the breakfast club bitches you're a donkey yes donkey of the day goes to a young man whose name has not been released and that's honestly for the best well at least for him because this guy did something that will be pinned on him forever if we ever find his name. I want to first say this is a public service announcement. You know, a call to action, if you will. We have to find this individual because he is indeed a shoplifter. Don't know if he's a habitual offender.

But as we learned from the amazing Spider-Man, if you don't stop someone after they commit what you think is a petty crime, they will go on to do something even more diabolical. In some cases, rest in peace to Uncle Ben. OK, if Peter Parker could have just gotten out of his feelings and stopped that robber after he robbed a wrestling promoter, Uncle Ben would still be alive today. But we learn from that situation that with great power comes great responsibility and it is my responsibility to use the power of this microphone to find this individual who decided to rob the famed adult store circus of books in west hollywood salute to circus of books drop on the clues bombs for circus of books i want justice for you all uh

this case is not getting the news coverage it deserves i saw tmz uh cover it i saw the surveillance footage on tmz actually and the surveillance footage shows a grown man walking into this famed adult sex store and attempting to steal a dildo. Now, listen, I see how you perked up. Now, listen, I know times are hard. OK, people are desperate. All right. Folks are doing what they need to do to survive. I don't know what this man's situation is at home. Maybe he suffers from erectile dysfunction and he's looking for ways to do to survive. I don't know what this man's situation is at home. Maybe he suffers from erectile dysfunction

and he's looking for ways to please his woman. Maybe he's in the closet and scared to go out here and get the real thing, so he needs a little something-something for himself. I don't know this man's situation. I just know this man attempted to do a five-finger discount on a dildo. Who are we to judge?

Okay, now, what is the reason this man is getting donkier today then, Uncle Charlotte, huh? Well, we all know dildos come in all shapes sizes and colors if you was to attempt to shoplift a dildo you probably want to get something between five and seven inches envy you've been rumored to like nine and a half that's big boy status though right but the thing about those dildos you could probably get that off before it gets you off if you take something that size, right? You can get that out of the store easily. The problem with this guy, and the reason he's getting donkier today, is this man attempted to shoplift a 30-inch dildo.

I'm not making this up. Go to TMZ, look at the surveillance footage. It wasn't just 30 inches. It was 30.7 inches in length. It was about 2 feet wide and 11 inches at the base. Looked like it weighed about between 30 and 40 pounds. It was 30.7 inches in length it was about two feet wide and 11 inches at the base looked like it weighed about between 30 and 40 pounds it was huge there's only two animals alive that got something bigger than that okay trust me i googled all right on this computer you will see animals with the biggest penises i researched it this morning biggest penis in the animal kingdom

is a blue whale penis that penis can be between eight to ten feet long if you're wondering what land animal it's the elephant six feet long so just think of that and then think of this 30 inch dildo two feet wide 11 inches at the base and think about how crazy this guy looks trying to shoplift this out of circus of books in west hollywood it also retails for 700 okay i just want to know who or what this was for. Okay. This man dating she Hulk or her cousin, Bruce Banner. Now you got to go watch the video because the cashier actually goes after this

man. I mean, as soon as they noticed the penis heights going down, the cashier goes after him. And then the video cuts back to the cashier carrying the 30 inch dildo on his shoulder. Okay. Now this shoplifter took the expression expression go big or go home way too

literal but we have to find this man okay we cannot have this man running up in sex stores stealing sex toys okay so if you know who this man is please contact slong swiper.com all right and in the meantime just give him the sweet sounds and the hammer tones. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Times are hard out here, guys and gals. Yeah. You want to play a game?

You want to play a game? you wanna play a game hard no pun intended sorry had to go ahead i guess we can play a game let's play a game of guess what race is all right all right this young man give us a clue hollywood he stole a 30 inch dildo 30 inches in length two feet wide 11 inches at the base um and want to note that it was a white that don't count it was a white dildo 30 inches in length two feet wide 11 inches at the base um and want to note that it was a white that don't count it was a white dildo you know what i mean okay but guess what race is emily definitely think he's white okay am i right hold on hold on i'll tell you about the dildo bandit in a second.

Because if he's in a store and they're watching him already, he's black. Whoa. Kind of hard not to watch a guy walking with a big dildo on his shoulder. It's a little different. They had to be looking at him. He's in the store. They're usually having the black people when they're in stores. They're going to follow you.

You got to be strong enough to carry that dildo out. So I'm going with black. No, you didn't. just call all white men weak terrible damn soft-shouldered whites uh envy you're wrong ebony is white i'm right west hollywood gave it away for me. Go watch the surveillance video.

Three days of music and then the boxing event. What was going on in the world at the time made this fight as important that anything else is going on on the planet. My grandfather laid on the ropes and let George Foreman basically just punch himself out. Welcome to Rumble, the story of a world in transformation. The 60s and prior to that, you couldn't call a person black. And how we arrived at this peak moment. I don't have to be what you want me to be. We all came from the continent of Africa. Listen to Rumble, Ali, Foreman, and the Soul of 74 on the iHeartRadio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So I look over at you and I'm like, yo, it's Jay. He's telling me I got it. No way. And in the background, you hear him, way. It was so gangster. You know what I'm saying? It was great.

How long have you known this was going to happen? Because you said, so Jay just called you, or you knew this was in the air? No, Jay called when I first got the news. Okay. I was in Atlanta. Yo, the craziest part, man, trying to hold this, you know what I'm saying, and not tell my kids, who were also too on me, like, Dad, you should play the Super Bowl. I'm telling you who do

i need to call you know i mean this they online asking or talking if you i'm like hey man just maybe pray about it you know what i'm saying like if you put and put it in the ether you know what i'm saying maybe it'll come back i'm knowing but i can't tell them you know so it was about a week and a half of just holding that secret i felt like i was having a conversation in the war room and you can't tell the rest of the world what's going on. It's crazy. That was on your bucket list, you said.

It has always been on my bucket list, yeah. I bet you since you saw Michael Jackson do it back in the day. Absolutely. He's the one who, yo, by the way,

Michael has paved the way for all of us. You know what I'm saying? To be able to see what he did with this moment starts it. And then to understand what Prince did with this moment ignites it. To know that so many legendary artists have been in that position from, you know what I'm saying?

U2, Coldplay, you know, Beyonce, Bruno Mars. So many incredible artists have been able to service that moment. I really do feel like I'm built for this. I feel like the music catalog that I've been able to build obviously moment. I really do feel like I'm built for this. I feel like the music catalog that I've been able to build obviously speaks to it. But the entertainer that I am for that moment and the fact that I'm in my new home, you know what I'm saying? Like not in my Vegas residency, but also to Lovers and Friends Festival. And it's like, why not have a crescendo? I think it was it was perfectly time. I'm a praying man. Did you?

I mean, and I actually, I put this up in the air. I prayed about it. If it was intended to happen, then it would find its way to me. And it did. And I'm not going to disappoint. I'll tell you that much. Did you go to Vegas, starting with lovers and friends, and then going into the residency, saying like, okay, if we do all this, now that it's here, the Super Bowl is going to be next.

Like, was that like a, you put that out there knowing that this would come? Yeah, no, affirmations. Like literally deciding that I was going to move in a certain way to take like some sense of ownership of a space. You know, I feel like in the past, being able to do that in Atlanta,

like, yeah, I'm originally from Chattanooga, Tennessee, but I was raised in Atlanta and Atlanta raised the artist that I am Atlanta raised the man that I am Atlanta raised the person and the creative that I am and I was able to do that in Las Vegas so I started with a residency opening a show when we were just coming out of the pandemic the first show to open in the world not just not just United States of America but yo, you know, we were coming out of a pandemic and people were afraid, you know, bringing that energy back in that started and then staying in Las Vegas a long, long enough for them to decide, OK, we're going to have the Super Bowl

in Las Vegas. So I'm like, I'm staying here. I brought my festival, you know, to Vegas. I was like, I'm staying here. I'm gonna put my flag down here. This is my new space. This is my home. I feel like I get to do all of the things that I've a praying man. And I appreciate the fact that God has allowed this to happen. I appreciate each and every person that I know said a prayer for me. I can tell you my grandmother before she passed, she said a prayer. And this is a very strong praying woman. So I know that my grandmother, she's in heaven. She's going to have the best seat in the house being able to look down and see this happen. My nanny, they're going to be up there.

My grandpapa's going to be up there looking My grandpapa's gonna be up there looking at this and enjoying it. They got the best season out. Now you got the difficult task now. See, now this the difficult task. You got two things. Now you gotta bring Atlanta to the Super Bowl. So do you bring roller skates? Do you bring strip club? Do you bring cars? And then

you got so many records into 13 minutes. Are you bringing the stripper from the vegas the one that comes down and like claps on i don't know her name i haven't been to the show yet the show are you bringing her to the show i might walk to the school let me tell you something you know what i do in vegas so listen it ain't nothing with the lights baby and that's what we're gonna do we're gonna bring the lights we're gonna bring the lights out i can't give you too much i'll tell you this the ideas that are swarming.

You know, you obviously know all the people that I work with in my life and my career musically. You know, the people that I respect and have collaborated with. I'm thinking of all of that. I'm thinking of making certain that the world understands the legacy. That is my career, not just the moment, but the legacy, the connection, the ideas and the nuance. You know what I'm saying? If it is a little bit of what Atlanta is, if it's a lot of bit of what my life has been in terms of my experience. But I'm playing the hits and I'm going to definitely bring something that's going to leave you. It's going to leave you shocked.

You're going to you're going to remember this moment. Tell us for the positivity. You remember this moment for the idea and the history. You remember this moment for all of the people gonna remember this moment for the idea and the history you're gonna remember this moment for all of the people that i feel like i stand on the shoulders of you're gonna remember this moment for the fact that it inspired me to see them have their moment and now i've got to have mine tell us tell us the meaning of the commercial usher and why it was important for you to tap into your younger self like that younger self what you what you talking about man i'm still here you definitely not asian but that was that was that was a younger version of us

now you'll have to so by the way uh you know we went around and around about um how we would approach this another a really great benefit is the 20th anniversary and celebration of confessions so it will be great opportunity to take a little bit of something that people would instantly identify with and play with it. And I felt like the social engagement because it really it really was fun after something that I saw my fans engage using, you know, using it for me. And I'm like, oh, this is something that I think is going to activate the world and also to continue to engage them because I want other people to do it as well. You know, I want other people to do their own versions of that conversation. You know what I'm saying? Why Dion and Kim? I mean, I think that, you know, the dynamic of who I as a story that has continuously continued to dig himself from wherever he has been.

Whether it was health or whether it was life or whether it was the pivot of being an amazing athlete and then becoming a coach. I felt like there was a story there to be told. And I wanted to support that. And I wanted him to do it. I had to ask if he would do it. And he volunteered and said, yeah, I would love to be a part of that. I felt like it was for the culture in that way. Kim, Kim is a good friend. And I felt like it was for the culture in that way. Kim, Kim is a good friend.

And I felt like it would definitely be fun. Marshawn Lynch was just, once again, another fun moment for the culture. You know what I'm saying? And Odell Beckham, you know what I'm saying? It was just a matter of just continuing to keep the right energy and all the right people. There were a ton of things that I've talked about and a ton of things that are going to happen any given Sunday that leads up to the actual big Sunday performance.

So it ain't done. You're going to see more. I actually, you know, pre-ordered and put on a pre-order my album. So there's a, there's a lot of, a lot of levels to what I'm doing with this entire moment between now and February 11th. All right, when we come back, let's get into a Usher mini mix. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. And Lauren LaRose is our special guest host. Now, there were the dating rumors with you and Kim Kardashian because she had came to the show so many times and people were like, what the heck is going on? You weren't afraid to lean into that? I said I'm on The Breakfast Club.

I forgot, sorry. Because when I saw it, I it i said oh this is smart like i thought you were playing into that whole like people were like how did this friendship even come about why does she keep going to the show well if you listen to it basically she told you i've seen the show two times and that's why she could give the news because she actually knows but now uh it's great show, man. Vegas has brought out a lot of people, not just Kim. We're talking about Halle Berry, you know what I'm saying? We're talking about Zendaya. We're talking about Gabrielle Union, who was in the house last night

here in Paris, you know what I'm saying? This thing is about good energy. This thing is about making certain that people celebrate that legacy every night. And I'm happy, you know, that our friendship allowed her to be a part of it and that we could do something fun and and social you know now i don't know if you heard but you know charlamagne and i are actually going out to to vegas to see your show not together in october

not together but we're going to see it and together we joked on air that says if you sing to our women we're gonna grab the other hand we all singing together you said you're gonna serenade all of us yeah we all we all yeah We'll come to five heartbeats to three heartbeats. That's what we're doing. That's what we're going for. Let's go. On three. One, two, three.

I got nothing but love for you. But you know, Envy brings up a good point, Mr. Steal Your Girl. You're not going to be able to steal anybody's girl from the Super Bowl stage. You don't know that. Because you won't be that close to the crowd. So how do you plan to terrorize people's relationship to the Super Bowl? I think you gave me the phrase, the domestic terrorist. I think

you did, shall we? Yes. So who coined the phrase? Oh my God, you crazy, bro. Oh man, it's gonna be a night. Yo, by the way, my Vegas residency is specifically what it is. And my performance at the Super Bowl will specifically be what it is. And my performance at the Superbowl will specifically be what it is.

But I will tell you, I'm not Mr. Steal your girl. You know what I'm saying? That's Trey songs. I'm the guy who tells you, don't leave. Don't leave your girl around me.

So you should come with your girl. You know what I'm saying? You should be here. There's no guilt. You don't, you don't, you don't feel bad at all. When you see like the Kiki Palmer situations unfold, like there's no guilt you don't you don't feel bad at all when you see like the kiki palmer

situations unfold like there's no guilt whatsoever what would the guilt be that i actually had a great show no it's fun but like it just costs so oh you haven't seen my show yet okay no actually i think it was the second show you did shout out to your team it was an amazing experience amazing experience. I saw everybody there. Your show was amazing. I know it's all fun. But I'm just saying there's so much that stemmed from that once it happened with Kiki. I'm like, dang, like, did she get like a, hey, you good call after? Like, what happens? I mean, not only did we get a good, good call, we shot a video, too. And the idea was to bring good attention. Yeah, it was it was it was to bring good bring good attention to it good intention and attention i think that we live in a sensational time we live very 2d you know what i'm saying life is 1d 2d 3d and i think we live in a 2d space so the idea

of what this is man was just about fun and just enjoying you know that moment and not missing it because you gotta stop you gotta stop. You gotta stop. They did a whole Boondocks episode about you. Okay, don't even go. Just so you know, they did that way before I was in Vegas. Just so you're clear. I know that because you have a reputation.

You've been doing this, Usher. Stop. It's a good thing, though. It's good. You know what it keeps you? It keeps relationships live. You know what I'm saying? You gotta do your part.

You know what I'm saying? Do your part, fellas. Go ahead. That's why we're grabbing your hand when you start singing. When your part You know what I'm saying Do your part, Spelz Go ahead That's why we grabbing your hand When you start singing When we get out there I'ma hold your hand too Thank you for telling me

I now know exactly Who I'm singing to Oh my lord Now they gonna come With just them two It's gonna be y'all three In a circle Now Diddy and JD

Are supposed to do this versus, right? You know, you work with Diddy You work with JD How do you stand on that And are we ever Going to get an Usher versus It's not going to happen No

I've said this a million times There's only like two Maybe three people's catalogs You can't do nothing with And Usher is one of them Usher got nuclear weapons Correct You brushed by it earlier

When you were just like Oh my musical catalog Nah bro Your catalog is different You got nuclear weapons i can't there's only one person i think could even stand there with you mary j blige and that's it that's it yep that's it that's it shuffling i appreciate your vote of uh confidence bro i do yeah i got warheads. Let me just say this. And Diddy, my brothers, you know what I'm saying? And I think that entire whole process is about the celebration of legacy. We got two men together who have contributed something incredible to my life as an artist.

So I'm celebrating both of them. You know what I'm saying? I don't have a dog in the fight. I just know you got two dogs getting ready to fight. That's what I know. All right, when we come back, we got more with Usher. Let's get into another mini mix. I mean, why not? saying i don't have a dog in the fight i just know you got two dogs getting ready to fight that's what i know all right when we come back we got more with usher let's get into another mini mix i mean why not usher's here it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club this club and lauren la rosa's our special guest host charlamagne you know you you said you said

something we introduced you at uh the i heart living black thing yep and we introduced you and you was like yo man i kind of want y'all to do that over because y'all introduced me and said i worked with a lot of icons and you was like but i am an icon and i said to myself yo he's right yeah absolutely and i remember having a conversation with dream and me and dream were just talking about how we got to preserve certain people's legacies how as an icon because you are you're a musical icon undisputed how do we preserve legacies like yourself while y'all are still active i don't want to wait until you pass and then everybody's celebrating you like how do we do that while you're still here um this might come off biasly you know what i'm saying but i'm gonna

try to do it without thinking of myself. I think that we have to celebrate. I think there's something about R&B artists versus rock artists versus even hip-hop artists that is easily disregarded. When you think about Chuck Berry, you think about Little Richard, you think of Domino Fash, think about Paul Robeson. You don't even know these names. Some people may not even know them, but they pay for every bit of what we're

celebrating in these new means. Rather, it's entertainment based because it was James Brown or Bobby Brown or Michael Jackson. By the way, we don't sell records no more, bro. You know what I'm saying? Like, check your...

You know what I'm saying? Look at what they would... Who sold records like Michael Jackson? Nobody. Nobody. Extreme shit. That's cool. But who sold records, you know what I'm saying?

And been able to sell physical copies like that, especially in this genre. It don't happen. Who sold records like Confessions? Hey, say that, bro. That's a diamond happen. Who sold records like Confessions? Hey, say that, bro. That's a diamond out. Who sold records like Confessions? No, but I'm not here to pop my collar.

I'm just talking about, for real, legacy needs to be preserved. Everybody, by the way, in R&B is always trying to, you know, really figure out who's the king. But I focused, my focus is really on a kingdom you know i'm saying that making certain that we remember the r&b artists the same way that hip-hop is remembered and hip-hop is preserved

not just because of the songs that were created but also to the fashion look at what amiri is doing just you know i'm saying with with with hip-hop you see most deaf and talib kweli you're like yo who that if you a kid yo they giving you culture they speaking through the clothes kanye and them just sean puffy combs creating you know that culture fat form which is you know russell simmons it became something more than just the music it became a culture being a king i want a kingdom you know what i'm saying it's time for us to be able to lift that r&b movement up just as much that's why you come to vegas and that sophistication

is out there that skate is there that entertainment is there because that's r&b and you don't get that every day that ain't gonna be something that everybody gets but it it creates a a conversation that i think is is is odd you know what I'm saying? When I hear that comparison, it's funny, especially for people who have done things that nobody else has done, but it's also too misinforming because the new kids, they actually think, oh yeah,

if I have this amount of streams or this amount of like looks and likes, that was a part of building that legacy. Don't matter them likes and that love. It don't equate. You know what I'm saying? So I totally agree. That's that legacy don't matter. Them likes and that love, it don't equate. You know what I'm saying? I totally agree. That's why I don't like it. And it's no disrespect because these guys are great. You can't compare a Weeknd to a Michael Jackson. You know what I'm saying? You can't compare Chris Brown

to an Usher. They're great. Don't get me wrong. Those guys are great. They do what they do. But y'all just came up in a whole different era. People had to actually go to the record store and buy albums the craftsmanship like when i came to your show in vegas and i've seen you before this but i remember when i left the show i was just thinking like i don't know if i've ever been to a show of any artist in my time right now that i left feeling the way that i did like the detail that you take

with like the the performance the song the serenading the crowd like even before that went viral like i was just like i don't know if, if artists do like my artists that I know are R&B artists take that time. Like it made you feel good. That's a different type of feeling. And that matters. Well, thank God that me and L.A. Reed decided to start a label. Mega is going to make some new ones. You know, you look at he he and babyface did with the face records and obviously what you know he and i even did with artists like justin justin bieber so it's like all right we're coming together and that artist development it does matter to be able to understand and make certain that people remember that entertainment matters it's always been the

most important part of who i am right but um i think that you know there is a way to bridge the gap because i ain't gonna discredit the artists who are killing it you know i'm saying because they have a following but we just do things in a different time and and and and it doesn't it's not fair to discredit those amazing artists philip bailey those amazing singers you know amazing jazz and all of these different levels of music. It might seem odd to slow down and listen to these songs, but it's really up to y'all as the curators to get them to pay attention to it. Maybe you come up with a factor today. Maybe y'all start saying, yo, call in, call us and tell me what this sample is. And

then before you know it, people are being informed. Create new connections to preserve our legacies. Not mine, but the legacy of the things that have assisted us. You know what I mean? Babies were born to these songs. You know what I mean? Story moments that we've had to these records. You know how many amazing things that track our lives in these songs? How easily we can just throw them away and move to the next chapter.

Nah, man. You got to keep it in. Keep it. Inform your audience. You know what I'm saying? I agree with everything you're saying. Don't sensationalize it. You know what I'm saying? We got to have a little bit of thirst trap there, but I'm just saying, for real, you know what I'm saying?

Let's be real here. You know what I'm saying? I agree with everything you're saying and that's why we got to be intentional, too, about celebrating. I think a lot of times, especially as men, you're like, oh, man, you're d*** you riding it's easy to make jokes it's easy to even critique something when you don't like it but it's for whatever reason it's hard to be like nah that's that dude right there yeah usher's an icon intimate conversations are intended for intimate spaces where you have a broadcasting space what you say becomes the law right there's many conversations of debate of

who's the illest mc or the best rapper or the best dancer in the barbershop or even in the private confines of your house but not everybody understands how to process that and it just then instigates conversation and things that are not really about preserving real work and real artistry man now we're talking to us he's over in paris doing his residency in paris i was gonna ask so this is your first album where it's almost you're not on a major label it's almost like you're part of it this is like almost you're independent where you're putting everything behind this one right yeah uh gamma uh larry jackson's effort you know it far exceeds just, there's many other artists that are going to come.

But me and L.A., we started a label under Gamma called Mega. Wow. And it's the beginning of, you know, the continuation of our legacy, the beginning of the continuation of our legacy, you know. And it's called Coming Home, the next album. Why Coming Home? Why that name? Coming Home, I mean, there's ultimately been several things that make me feel like I'm coming home. Not even a place, but just a feeling. Me

reconnecting with LA. Me coming home into a space of comfort, whether it's Las Vegas or whether it's just the home that is Atlanta and the home that I'm building there. The coming home of becoming a better man, a better man to my woman, a better man to my family, a better man to, you know, the world and the story that I choose to tell. That don't make me perfect. And I'm not getting ready to, you know, you know, just change the narrative. I'm going to be honest about some of the things that I've gone through to create these songs, which I always have kept it honest in my music. Rather, you understood it or not. But coming home, even to the culture of where I come from,

you know what I mean? I don't know if you saw me. If you go to my IG, you'll see me, you know, doing festival things over in Ghana. When I spent time in Ghana

and I went to the original spaces where slaves were brought in off the ships, something about that made me reignite coming home to our original home, the motherland.

And all of those things started to sneak their way into my music. You know, rather it was the algorithms of the song or the rhythm and beat of what was going on with, you know, my piano and Afro beats. All of those things began to instigate my creativity. So I'm coming home in all of those ways. All right. Well, ladies and gentlemen Usher we look forward to seeing you at Super Bowl the icon known as Usher who should always be celebrated

Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before

Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
