Speaker 5: What you think Russell wasn't going on vacation.
Speaker 1: Turkey kickos N.
Speaker 4: I did that a few times. Right, Well, let's jump
Speaker 4: right into the news. What were talking about? What we're
Speaker 4: starting with this morning?
Speaker 11: Two years Yeah, a fifty three year old Jank Yuger,
Speaker 11: founder and al spokenhost of the progressive Young Turks TV show, said,
Speaker 11: Joe Biden is not going to win for president and
Speaker 11: he is the break glass in case of emergency candidate.
Speaker 11: Let's listen to why he believes he should be running
Speaker 11: for president of the United States.
Speaker 1: Let's change the course.
Speaker 12: Right now, Joe Biden is down twenty four points in
Speaker 12: the economy, nineteen points on jobs when he actually did
Speaker 12: better on jobs than Trump did. He's out thirteen points
Speaker 12: from where he was in twenty twenty. He is not
Speaker 12: going to win. I am running, Yes, I am a
Speaker 12: break glass in case of emergency candidate. It should not
Speaker 12: have been me, It should have been someone else, but
Speaker 12: unfortunately it was not anyone else. And now there's only
Speaker 12: four months left, we must change course. He has at
Speaker 12: best a ten percent chance of winning. Donald Trump is
Speaker 12: an actual fascist. So I am running as a proxy.
Speaker 12: I'm running to win, but I'm also running as a
Speaker 12: proxy for any other candidate. We have got to get
Speaker 12: Biden out of the race. Thank you for winning in
Speaker 12: twenty twenty, but if he loses this time around, it's
Speaker 12: not just his problem, it's all of our problems. I
Speaker 12: actually think democracy is on the line, and so if
Speaker 12: it takes me running, then that's what I'm gonna do,
Speaker 12: and we're all gonna do it together.
Speaker 9: He's not saying nothing that I haven't been saying. Donald
Speaker 9: Trump is indeed a fascist. Democracy is on the line,
Speaker 9: and twenty twenty four, twenty twenty four, Yeah, and Biden loses,
Speaker 9: I think democracy as we know it will never be
Speaker 9: the same again.
Speaker 4: But what did they say in sports? You still got
Speaker 4: to play the game.
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, even it looks like the team might
Speaker 9: don't have a chance to win, and you still got
Speaker 9: to play the game.
Speaker 5: I just wish you had some better players on both sides.
Speaker 11: So as it stands, Mary and Wilson who obviously Mitt Williamson,
Speaker 11: I'm sorry. It's also still running up to be the
Speaker 11: Democrat nominee against Joe. Biden had her on the show
Speaker 11: as well. We also had doctor Cornell West on the show.
Speaker 11: We can go back and listen to that interview, he
Speaker 11: dropped his Green Party ticket. So when we had him
Speaker 11: on the Breakfast c he was running as a Green
Speaker 11: Party ticket and he has now dropped it as an independent.
Speaker 11: And so has Robertie Kennedy Junior, who was also running
Speaker 11: up for the Democratic nomination when we had him on
Speaker 11: the show, and now he is running as an independent
Speaker 11: as well, which I recorded that earlier this week. So
Speaker 11: folks are moving over to the independent category. And just
Speaker 11: you know, being very honest, like Jane said, I'm running
Speaker 11: to be a proxy. I know I'm a long shot candidate,
Speaker 11: I know, you know, but I'm running to disrupt. I
Speaker 11: appreciate his honesty at least, you know, with that, but
Speaker 11: not a lot of people like it. They feel, you know,
Speaker 11: it's a spoiler. Feel look it hurt Joe Biden. But
Speaker 11: there's also people that believe Joe Biden can hurt Joe Biden.
Speaker 11: So we'll just see.

Speaker 4: on b E T The Breakfast Club Morning, everybody in
Speaker 4: Steve j n V Charlamagne the guy we are the
Speaker 4: Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk to
Speaker 4: Iley brothers name or you got to been on you chatting?
Speaker 1: Is the rumor report?
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess we're on the Breakfast Club. This
Speaker 4: is where the tea spells right right, damn it's cool now.
Speaker 4: Ronald Eisley was on the Breakfast Club a couple of
Speaker 4: months ago, and Charlemagne asked him about his relationship with
Speaker 4: his brother because it was rumors that they weren't. Hee
Speaker 4: and I to eye on some things.
Speaker 9: Our things now, because I know one of your brothers
Speaker 9: was suing you over to brother Tradmarky. That's not really
Speaker 9: a problem. You know, it's hard for me to discuss
Speaker 9: it now, but it's not.
Speaker 4: That's not a problem. But what's whatsoever? Well, it's sad
Speaker 4: to say that his brother Rudolph has passed away. He
Speaker 4: died at the age of eighty four. He was one
Speaker 4: of the founding members of the Isley Brothers, and that
Speaker 4: that only leaves Ronald as the sole surviving member of
Speaker 4: the original Isley Brothers, which was Ronald, O'Kelly and Rudolph. Now,
Speaker 4: he also wrote their first hit, shout you Got It?
Speaker 4: What come on, Grandma, come on, grand dad, look do
Speaker 4: a little day. They still played this at the baseball games,
Speaker 4: football games and all that shout get to save you.
Speaker 9: Call your grandma down. Your grandma just lost it real quickly.
Speaker 9: Grandma just lost it real quick in the kitchen, didn't she.
Speaker 9: I hope those issues, uh, you know, were just business
Speaker 9: and not personal.
Speaker 4: But look, the issue is the name. You know, he
Speaker 4: said that, you know, Ronald shouldn't have the name. But
Speaker 4: Ronald said that you're not in the group, you're not performing,
Speaker 4: So that's why you know, we use the name. But
Speaker 4: yesterday he left the statement that said there are no
Speaker 4: words to express my feelings and the love I have
Speaker 4: for my brother. Our family will miss him, but I
Speaker 4: know he's in a better place. So rest in peace
Speaker 4: to Rudolph Ice.
Speaker 10: Yeah, that's I said.
Speaker 9: I hope those issues were just business and our personal
Speaker 9: because it would suck to have unresolved, you know, personal
Speaker 9: issues with somebody that you love, you know, and that's
Speaker 9: really really close to you. But y'all might not have
Speaker 9: been on the best of personal terms when they passed.
Speaker 9: You know, that's something you got to live with forever.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 5: I hope it was just.
Speaker 9: Business is not personal, but definitely sending healing energy to
Speaker 9: the good brother Ronald Isla.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Now, Jada Pinkett Smith, she's on tour. Of course,
Speaker 4: she has a bookcase on tour. She's on tour. She
Speaker 4: has a book that's coming out, and she's been talking
Speaker 4: to pretty much everybody.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 4: She was talking to Crystal Jordan at Rolling Out and
Speaker 4: just talking about her, you know, how she felt about
Speaker 4: Tupac and the chemistry.
Speaker 19: If there is such a thing as past lives, m hmm,
Speaker 19: I definitely think Paca and I have traveled a few together,
Speaker 19: you know, in various forms.
Speaker 20: So has there ever been a time that you regretted
Speaker 20: the decision that you made not to take it to
Speaker 20: that level with him and to keep it in the
Speaker 20: friendship space.
Speaker 18: It just wasn't possible.
Speaker 19: There was no chemistry between us, you know.
Speaker 5: I talk about it in the book.
Speaker 20: It's just hard to believe. We see chemistry with the
Speaker 20: two of you guys, even in the videos. The videos
Speaker 20: you guys dance and there seems to be so much chemistry,
Speaker 20: but for yours, that friendship love.
Speaker 4: Trust me, Okay, Jada, We're gonna buy the book, all right.
Speaker 9: As a Pinkett Smith, Winfrey knows Carter, I'm telling you
Speaker 9: right now, I'm gonna buy the book, and I was
Speaker 9: looking at I didn't see the clip yet, but I
Speaker 9: saw my good peoples at all the Smoke sluthon map
Speaker 9: Bones and Stephen Jackson. Make sure you listened to all
Speaker 9: the Smoke podcasts on the blackfecu Ie Heart radio podcast network.
Speaker 9: I saw they put out a clip that said Jada
Speaker 9: Pinkett Smith reveals that Tupac proposed to her while he
Speaker 9: was in jail. Can we get that clip school for later?
Speaker 4: Wow?
Speaker 5: Jesus Christ. Yeah.
Speaker 4: If you don't know Jada and Tupaca, they went to
Speaker 4: high school together in Baltimore. She also talked about you
Speaker 4: know Baltimore and how she never wanted to be a
Speaker 4: drug dealer's girlfriend. So she talked about how drugs affected
Speaker 4: the area and her neighborhood. She said, I wasn't trying
Speaker 4: to use drugs. I surely wasn't going to be the
Speaker 4: drug dealer's girlfriend. But I wanted money so that I
Speaker 4: could be independent. I wanted to take care of myself.
Speaker 4: So she talks about actually selling drugs. So that's in
Speaker 4: the book as well.
Speaker 9: I'm going to buy the book. It's called Worthy, Okay.
Speaker 9: I actually cannot wait to read it. The press tour
Speaker 9: has worked this week, all right.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Also saw a headline that said, Jada Pinkett Smith she
Speaker 9: has actually never met Will Smith.
Speaker 4: No, shut up, man, but we did. Will Smith was
Speaker 4: up here and Charlamagne asked Will Smith about you know,
Speaker 4: everybody always talking about Tupac and Tupac and Jada's relationship
Speaker 4: and how he felt about it. So this was Will
Speaker 4: Smith talking about it when he was here. Ever jealous
Speaker 4: of the love Jada had for Tupac.
Speaker 21: Yeah, that was in early days, and it was like,
Speaker 21: that's that was a big regret for me too, because
Speaker 21: I could never open up to interact with Pac. You know,
Speaker 21: they grew up together and you know, they loved each other,
Speaker 21: but they never had that, you know, they never had
Speaker 21: a sexual relationship, but they had come into that age
Speaker 21: where now that was a possibility. And then Jada was
Speaker 21: with me, but she just loved him like he was
Speaker 21: the image of perfection.
Speaker 1: But she was with the fresh prince.
Speaker 5: Want a comment.
Speaker 21: No, That's what Jada was saying all the time. She
Speaker 21: was like, I'm telling you, y'all are so similar. You
Speaker 21: will you love him and I just never I couldn't.
Speaker 21: I couldn't handle it. You know, I was just. I
Speaker 21: was the soft rapper from Philly.
Speaker 5: And he was pac right now.
Speaker 21: I was deeply insecure and just I wasn't mad enough
Speaker 21: to handle that relationship.
Speaker 4: Jesus Christ, Jada should just named this book All Eyes
Speaker 4: on Me. Man. Well, we do have the clip that
Speaker 4: you was talking about where Jada Pinkett was on all
Speaker 4: the smoke. A lot of people might not know, but
Speaker 4: he proposed to he while he was in jail.
Speaker 19: I talk about this in the book when I go
Speaker 19: to see him in Rikers, when I wrote about that
Speaker 19: in the book, and when I had to.
Speaker 4: Talk about it.
Speaker 19: Speak my words for the audible version of the book,
Speaker 19: that was probably one of the more painful hearts seeing
Speaker 19: him there, the condition that he was in, and having
Speaker 19: to leave him there, and he was in, he was,
Speaker 19: he was in, he was, he was, he was in
Speaker 19: bad shape. And so when he asked me to get married,
Speaker 19: he was at Rikers.
Speaker 22: And I knew at that time that.
Speaker 19: He needed somebody to do time with him, which I
Speaker 19: was gonna do. Anyway, you have to marry me to.
Speaker 9: Do We need to hear WILLI Smith's side of this.
Speaker 9: Will Smith's just need to remake I am mad at you. Man,
Speaker 9: you know what I'm saying. Just express all his feelings.
Speaker 9: Keep your head up about this. I'll keep your head up.
Speaker 9: You know what I mean? One of those two. No, no, no,
Speaker 9: I ain't mad at you. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: Because everybody probably think he mad at Jada. Remember Jamail
Speaker 9: Hill was here yesterday saying Will not a victim, and
Speaker 9: everybody probably think he's mad at Jada. Right now, just
Speaker 9: go ahead and let join the Lucas rewrite. I am
Speaker 9: mad at you for Jada real quick. Will, I'll hit
Speaker 9: him up.
Speaker 4: Whatever you want to do with him, hit him up him,
Speaker 4: go change his first whatever you want to do.
Speaker 9: Well, we understand, Jesus. But guess what I'm getting the book.
Speaker 9: I have to read this damn book. I have to
Speaker 9: read this book. I I want to hear her speaking.
Speaker 9: I like to read like I'm old school.
Speaker 4: Can imagine her speaking at.
Speaker 5: Though, I mean, she don't sound like she sounded an interview.
Speaker 4: I like that. Yeah, I'm gonna cluse monster, Jada Pinker Smith.
Speaker 5: Okay, I don't know why.
Speaker 9: I just feel like I need to drop a bomb
Speaker 9: for you, all right, you out here doing your thug
Speaker 9: This he.
Speaker 4: Said, I ain't want to be a drug dealer's girlfriend,
Speaker 4: so I just sold it myself.
Speaker 9: This has been one of those book runs that actually
Speaker 9: has worked. I want to read the book. All right,
Speaker 9: I'm probably gonna read the book anyway, but I really
Speaker 9: want to read the book.
Speaker 5: Nothing me too.
Speaker 4: You got no copies yet, daddy, Nope, not yet? You
Speaker 4: got what how you got one copy?
Speaker 1: You keep it for.
Speaker 4: Yourself on next week? Or they sent in no copies
Speaker 4: next way? All right? All right, well we come back.
Speaker 4: We got front page news. Seland Figure will be joining us,
Speaker 4: and then Joe Claire will be here, I you know,
Speaker 4: form a rap city host also comedian.
Speaker 2: It's the breakfast slogan Morning the breakfast Club. Your mornings
Speaker 2: will never be the same morning.
Speaker 4: Everybody is DJ Envy Charlemagne, the God. We are the
Speaker 4: breakfast Club. Let's get back in some front page news.
Speaker 18: What up tears going on?
Speaker 4: DJ ands Charlemagne to God, to the hood Whisperer.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 4: Last night, Kansas City beat Denver nineteen eighteen, the NFL
Speaker 4: and the baseball playoffs. If you're still watching, the Phillies
Speaker 4: beat Atlanta Braves. They move on to the National League Championship.
Speaker 4: Siviies against the Arizona Diety. It's very important to note
Speaker 4: that the Broncos are now one in five. I mean,
Speaker 4: as of right now, the Russell Wilson era artis Sean
Speaker 4: Payton era has not worked in Denver in no way,
Speaker 4: shape or form. No, not at all. But let's jump
Speaker 4: right into the news. Let's jump into these two offices.
Speaker 9: All split verdick, God damn you jump into the two office.
Speaker 4: Come stop it, man, yanky, this morning, go ahead.
Speaker 18: It is freaky Friday.
Speaker 11: But a two officers faces split verdict in Elijah McLean's death.
Speaker 11: Listen to the report and then I'll give you just
Speaker 11: some additional information on the other side.
Speaker 23: Butt verdict and the death of Elijah McClain. The twenty
Speaker 23: three year old black man died in twenty nineteen after
Speaker 23: being subdued by police and injected with the sedative ketamine.
Speaker 23: One officer, Randy Rodema, was found guilty of egligent homicide
Speaker 23: and third degree assault, both felonies. The assault conviction carries
Speaker 23: a penalty of up to sixteen years in prison. Second
Speaker 23: officer Jason Rosenblatt was acquitted.
Speaker 18: Man naturally, Yeah, just some additional information. When he died.
Speaker 18: And again this was twenty nineteen.
Speaker 11: Remember we talked about yesterday how they moved so swiftly
Speaker 11: on Carly Russell.
Speaker 18: But this was twenty nineteen.
Speaker 11: After he was given the drug, McClean went into cardiac
Speaker 11: arrest and was declared brain dead.
Speaker 18: He died several days later.
Speaker 11: Now, the corner's report that was released in twenty twenty one,
Speaker 11: which obviously a couple of years after he died, said
Speaker 11: that the death was caused by the administration of the sedative,
Speaker 11: as you heard the report, but the coroner could not
Speaker 11: rule out the possibility of the choke hold contributed to
Speaker 11: his death because obviously a choke hold restricts blood flow
Speaker 11: to the brain. After the verdict, his mother said that
Speaker 11: this is what happens in the Divided States of America,
Speaker 11: and she was visibly a set, you know, as she
Speaker 11: left the parking lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is amazing to me.
Speaker 9: You know how many of these stories I can honestly
Speaker 9: say I forgot it about hear me both and I
Speaker 9: remember when this first happened, and that young man was
Speaker 9: big in for his life, you know, saying he doesn't
Speaker 9: eat meat. And it's one of those stories that when
Speaker 9: you unfortunately listen to the video, well, listen to listen
Speaker 9: to the audio. You kind of like trying to suppress
Speaker 9: out of your brain because you don't want to, you know,
Speaker 9: hear somebody suffering in that way.
Speaker 5: But it's just sad that we.
Speaker 9: Kind of we I can only speak for me, just
Speaker 9: just kind of move off from from these things and
Speaker 9: you forget that these cases are even going on.
Speaker 4: You know, it's crazy when I when I read it
Speaker 4: and I seen Elijah McLean, I was like, well, who's
Speaker 4: a lot which one is Elijah McLain because it happened
Speaker 4: so much, you know what I mean, until you know,
Speaker 4: we just bought the story up. It's very sad.
Speaker 11: And I just want to point out that during the
Speaker 11: trial because supposed to ask, you know, why how did
Speaker 11: they get in the show called what Happened with That?
Speaker 11: And the officers just said he looked suspicious in a
Speaker 11: hot crime area. He was just walking to the store.
Speaker 11: Doesn't that sound for me? You remember again Trayvon Martin.
Speaker 11: But obviously that wasn't you know, an officer's situation. But
Speaker 11: still he was walking to the store. They told him
Speaker 11: to stop. He said, you don't have the right to
Speaker 11: walk wherever I want to walk, and they said, well,
Speaker 11: you also should stop because you look suspicious. And that's
Speaker 11: what happened, so very very unfortunate. And yeah, you people
Speaker 11: forget about these you become known to them, unfortunately because
Speaker 11: it happens so much.
Speaker 9: So yeah, you know, bum ass, A bum ass dude
Speaker 9: just driving, you know what I'm saying, got the audacity
Speaker 9: to look at somebody like Elijah McClean and just he
Speaker 9: sized them up right, you know, he said, he looks
Speaker 9: sketchy and he might be a good person or a
Speaker 9: bad person.
Speaker 5: Like come on, man, it's so crazy.
Speaker 4: Now let's talk about the safest cities in America.
Speaker 18: Yeah, safet cities of America.
Speaker 11: You guys had talked earlier about you know, what's happening
Speaker 11: today in New York, but let's talk about how.
Speaker 18: A few of the a few cities have been deemed
Speaker 18: you know, not so safe.
Speaker 11: America's biggest and most famous cities have a safety problem
Speaker 11: from crime to financial problems and the threat of national disasters.
Speaker 11: So a new pole you know, has listed out these
Speaker 11: cities and wanted to give a few of them to you.
Speaker 11: Rounding out the safety cities is overall Joshua New Hampshire
Speaker 11: is number one as safe the safest cities. The others
Speaker 11: Maryland is two, South Burlington, Vermont three, Gilbert Arizona four,
Speaker 11: and Warwick Island five. In Columbia ranks as a safet
Speaker 11: city in the country when it comes to home community safety,
Speaker 11: and South Burlington is the top location for financial safety.
Speaker 5: Well Columbia, Columbia, will.
Speaker 18: Columbia, I just said it.
Speaker 9: Hold on, uh huh, must be Maryland. They damn sure
Speaker 9: ain't South Carolina to the eight oh three to metro.
Speaker 9: What's happening? Love Columbia, But no, I don't think we
Speaker 9: would ever make that.
Speaker 4: Listen.
Speaker 11: Now, the major cities that have problems is New York, Chicago,
Speaker 11: Houston to be concern right now, going on with that
Speaker 11: with the mayor's race of comers room Shiela Jackson Lee
Speaker 11: and tough on crime is one of the major issues.
Speaker 11: They're talking about San Francisco, Seattle, Atlanta, and Philadelphia.
Speaker 18: So those are the cities that have the problems according
Speaker 18: to this post.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was driving in today and it's crazy because
Speaker 4: I got to see the city change at one time.
Speaker 4: You know, we've always had a lot of homeless people,
Speaker 4: but you didn't see. It's almost looking like La. When
Speaker 4: I mean looking like La. I was driving by in La.
Speaker 4: That's what you would see, you know, homeless people intents,
Speaker 4: you would see the big boxes like you would see
Speaker 4: like the homes made out of makeshift things. And I'm
Speaker 4: starting to see that a lot in New York now.
Speaker 4: So that just tells me that they they're having a
Speaker 4: huge problem. They can't find places to put people, they
Speaker 4: can't find a people, can't find jobs. It's a lot
Speaker 4: of problems out there for New York.
Speaker 9: It's also amazing how most of the safest cities, with
Speaker 9: the exception of Columbia and Maryland, I've never heard of
Speaker 9: and they probably want to keep it that I never
Speaker 9: heard of Columbia Maryland. You never heard Columbia Maryland. No, No,
Speaker 9: I definitely heard columbu in Maryland, Columbian Maryland. But yeah,
Speaker 9: I've never heard of these cities, and they probably want
Speaker 9: to keep it that way. They're probably mad that even
Speaker 9: shot in their mouth don't blow the spot up. All right, Well,
Speaker 9: that is front page News thinking. Tis have great weekend,
Speaker 9: and make sure you subscribe to Teslan Figureos podcast as
Speaker 9: great shot. No chase of podcasts on the Black Effect,

Speaker 16: ever been HBCUs correct, the only real one is Morgan State.
Speaker 16: But then the other ones still feel like they are
Speaker 16: a Morgan State. So you have that Howard Hampton thing

Speaker 4: on the campus well whatever you want to call it
Speaker 4: a campus.
Speaker 1: Oh no you didn't, just because y'all got that little
Speaker 1: river running behind y'all.
Speaker 4: Little school, little campus. And then you know what I
Speaker 4: seen on my dad scene, y'all was playing craps on
Speaker 4: the steps. And my dad was like, this is the
Speaker 4: same thing as Queens. Why am you gonna leave Queens
Speaker 4: to come to Baltimore.

Speaker 16: raggedy suit. At the time, we didn't have the funding
Speaker 16: to get a new mascot outfit. At that time, Mortgage
Speaker 16: State was going through something, so they gave me the
Speaker 16: old one that they used to have and the hat.
Speaker 16: The head was perfect. The suit defeat cottage. So I
Speaker 16: used to rock whatever. The bed would come out rocking
Speaker 16: fresh new Bucks, new butter Tims, and everybody who is
Speaker 16: the bed, he's fresh whoever the beds freshest band we
Speaker 16: ever had artist.
Speaker 9: If you walk on the HBCU Can and Rolling Dice schedule,
Speaker 9: you might not need to go to an HBC.
Speaker 4: It was like, this is the same thing I seen
Speaker 4: in Queens and I don't want my kid, you know,
Speaker 4: rolling craps.
Speaker 16: So what it is we wasn't rolling craft. That was
Speaker 16: a probability study. See you wasn't your father, It wasn't
Speaker 16: your pops, wasn't here. That is just a probability study
Speaker 16: I got from some kids in the engineering the park.
Speaker 4: Now let's talk about what's going on in Morgan right now.
Speaker 4: Morgan State. You know there was a shooting there recently. Yes, uh,
Speaker 4: you guys have canceled the homecoming and there was a
Speaker 4: lot going on. So have you reached back out to
Speaker 4: the school. How is everything happening now? Because I know
Speaker 4: you're big when it comes to giving back to that school.
Speaker 16: So I was supposed to actually host our homecoming gala,
Speaker 16: which is the biggest fundraiser of the year. I host
Speaker 16: the Gaily Years shirt you know, tuxedo out, and that
Speaker 16: got postponed to December the eighth. The official homecoming got canceled,
Speaker 16: but Black people. Homecoming went on as playing. They were
Speaker 16: sty oh they were still party. They called it because
Speaker 16: the homecoming got canceled. Brunch because the homegum we got
Speaker 16: canceled day party because of the So we you know,
Speaker 16: you have thousands of people who were looking forward to
Speaker 16: this weekend, so they came down and had a great
Speaker 16: time and showed solidarity after the shooting.
Speaker 1: You had mothers. There was a group of mothers who
Speaker 1: got together.
Speaker 16: Who didn't have kids in school, who came up just
Speaker 16: to show support for kids who were far away from
Speaker 16: home who needed a mom. If you need a hug,
Speaker 16: if you need to ask a mom question real quick,
Speaker 16: we're standing right here.
Speaker 4: Oh wow.
Speaker 1: And so while the tragedy happened, and.
Speaker 16: You know, our prayers are with those students and their
Speaker 16: families and everybody affected, there's also this gigantic push of solidarity,
Speaker 16: this gigantic push of unity. This is a new Morgan State,
Speaker 16: and we're gonna stand together to shake off some of the.
Speaker 1: Old reputation and move in a new positive way.
Speaker 16: When things like this pop up, it throws a monkey
Speaker 16: rich into the we're a new Morgan thing.
Speaker 1: So we came out even stronger. That's why I've been.
Speaker 1: I've been orange and blue since that that day.
Speaker 16: You know, my kids are walking around with the hats
Speaker 16: and everything else, and I'm screaming it out as much
Speaker 16: as I possibly can these institutions.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't have to come on here and
Speaker 1: appreciate you.
Speaker 16: What an HB means for our community. So you know,
Speaker 16: at this time in my life, I'm happy to be
Speaker 16: able to be there for my school.
Speaker 1: Whatever they need.
Speaker 16: They call me for anything, if the students need anything,
Speaker 16: my frat brothers need anything.
Speaker 4: They hit me up, and like, let's go do X,
Speaker 4: Y and Z. Do you think they should have canceled
Speaker 4: on coming.
Speaker 16: I think it was a good call by doctor Wilson
Speaker 16: is an incredible leader for that school. And let's imagine
Speaker 16: if he didn't cancel this, Black Mama, he ain't canceling.
Speaker 16: It's a tragedy. So he did the smart thing. He
Speaker 16: did the thing that someone in academia should do. Let's
Speaker 16: cancel this. Everybody else though, we went and partied and
Speaker 16: everybody had a great time.
Speaker 5: It's all the events around homecomers.
Speaker 23: Yeah, none of that.
Speaker 8: You ain't.
Speaker 4: You ain't canceling rare essence. You ain't canceling the go.
Speaker 16: Go, because you know, you're not you supposed to have
Speaker 16: a go go on Baltimore in the front first place.
Speaker 16: So the fact that you got to go go in Baltimore,
Speaker 16: oh we coming, and you're not canceling that you can't
Speaker 16: go in Baltimore. It's too old Baltimore. Now most of
Speaker 16: the country doesn't really doesn't know that. There is a
Speaker 16: unspoken rivalry between the African American community and Baltimore and
Speaker 16: the African American community in DC.
Speaker 1: They got their own language, they own and so we
Speaker 1: have two.
Speaker 16: We grew up with two different like you said, cultures,
Speaker 16: different accents, music, food, we did, way we dress, and
Speaker 16: the like. So when I got to Baltimore, there was
Speaker 16: no go go but soever you did not don't even
Speaker 16: don't even bring that up in Baltimore now because of
Speaker 16: I think because of the twenty thirty is that DC
Speaker 16: has been heavy going to Morgan State making alliances in
Speaker 16: the city. My wife is from the West Side. First,
Speaker 16: let me say that my wife is from the West
Speaker 16: side of Baltimore. And when I married a Baltimore woman,
Speaker 16: the DC women like.
Speaker 1: Hold ah ha, y'all, no, that's not what we're doing.
Speaker 4: I was like, Oh that's what we do.
Speaker 1: You you don't sleep with her, you haven't had some
Speaker 1: of that that old bait that she served.
Speaker 16: She's got a crab boy for your ass that you
Speaker 16: don't know nothing about. And so I think that there's
Speaker 16: there's there's slowly, but surely there's there's an alliance that
Speaker 16: has been coming between Baltimore and DC. At least the
Speaker 16: the hard line has been softened. I won't say that
Speaker 16: is an alliance, but the hard line has been softened.
Speaker 16: But you never hear about this rivalry that we had
Speaker 16: that goes on. I think it's the stupidest thing ever.
Speaker 16: I think that the two communities, African American communities in
Speaker 16: those major cities. D C is a major city, Baltimore's
Speaker 16: a major city.
Speaker 1: I think we need to come.
Speaker 9: Yeah, anything that brings you all together, I would think,
Speaker 9: like comedy, right, because I think your comedy underrated comedy
Speaker 9: is an underrated comedy scene in Baltimore, DC. You got Dave,
Speaker 9: you got Donall so here, so quick, just hilarious. So
Speaker 9: here's how we feel about that. The same applies. So
Speaker 9: it's like this glowing up anything coming out of Baltimore.
Speaker 16: You just automatically x and if you in Baltimore, anything
Speaker 16: coming out of DC, you just automatically x NA, you
Speaker 16: don't know them.
Speaker 1: I learned that from my bo my Baltimore gooons.
Speaker 4: What's up with y'all? I ain't saying no names, what's
Speaker 4: up a child?
Speaker 1: But I know some straight goods. And you know Baltimore.
Speaker 4: You know the wire was real.
Speaker 16: Let's let's let's keep let's keep it the buck. The
Speaker 16: wire was real. And the climate in Baltimore.
Speaker 1: It's it's serious, it's very very serious. So it's gonna
Speaker 1: take thirty forty years for that alliance to pop off.
Speaker 16: If you're talking about black folks who are setting their ways.
Speaker 16: Black folks are very very slow to change. And unless

Speaker 16: they gave me a couple of auditions and next thing
Speaker 16: you know, I was the I was co hosted with
Speaker 16: Big Legs.
Speaker 4: You know what I realized last night watching that documentary.
Speaker 9: Not realized it reminded me you and last had some
Speaker 9: of the greatest chemistry I've ever.
Speaker 4: Mean, any duo have period. Did y'all know each other
Speaker 4: before that?
Speaker 22: Up?
Speaker 16: So I worked really well with women, specifically because of
Speaker 16: what I was taught about women, and then my brother
Speaker 16: taught me about respecting people.
Speaker 1: Period.
Speaker 16: That's how That's what me and Liz were off the
Speaker 16: break And since she was already there, she knew more
Speaker 16: than I did, so I kind of gave her this
Speaker 16: big sister thing.
Speaker 1: YO, show me this and show me that, and how
Speaker 1: does this work? And I don't know these hip hop guys?
Speaker 1: And oh who is that?
Speaker 4: Could you?
Speaker 1: Can you introduce me? That's how that chemistry worked out?
Speaker 1: Now some of her friends?
Speaker 18: What's up with Joe?
Speaker 4: It was a different.
Speaker 1: Let me show you a little bro dude.
Speaker 4: So why did you leave? What ended with Rhapsody? Why
Speaker 4: did you leave? Rap Cdy?
Speaker 16: So I'll tell you. I'll tell you both versions. The
Speaker 16: version from where I sit now in my fifties. Stephen
Speaker 16: Hill was a guy coming into BT who needed to
Speaker 16: to make his thing work.
Speaker 1: He had been hired to make this thing work.
Speaker 16: That means people gonna get let go, sets are gonna
Speaker 16: get changed, systems are won't get tossed up. I was
Speaker 16: new to that though, I didn't know that that's how
Speaker 16: that worked. And we were a Beet family up until
Speaker 16: that point when it happened Stephen Hill call me and
Speaker 16: Liz in his office and he.
Speaker 1: Says, so, you know, we're gonna go in another direction.
Speaker 1: I was like, cool, what's the direction.
Speaker 24: I had?
Speaker 1: I had never heard that before.
Speaker 16: I had never heard were going in another direction more times,
Speaker 16: I had never heard everything that was right exactly. That
Speaker 16: was the first time I heard that, and that meant
Speaker 16: that you would be you, you would get in let go.
Speaker 16: From how I understood the industry at that time, I
Speaker 16: thought that was just the most move, like he ain't
Speaker 16: shake my hand and like take us to lunch and
Speaker 16: be like, bro, we love you, but you know this
Speaker 16: is what it is. And then then it was just
Speaker 16: a cold, uh, we're going in another direction. And to
Speaker 16: his credit, man, he came in and did what he
Speaker 16: had to do and look at where I where BT
Speaker 16: went from there.
Speaker 1: It became such an iconic brand for everybody.
Speaker 9: But I was wondering, and I was I was thinking
Speaker 9: about the dog watching this last night. Did you and
Speaker 9: Les even get a chance to audition for one O six?
Speaker 9: Because that was the other thing that happened. They launched
Speaker 9: one O six and kind of phase rap City I didn't.
Speaker 4: Even have that would make that was the no brain
Speaker 4: of them.
Speaker 16: So so what happened is out not rap City kept
Speaker 16: going kept but but but the shiny jewel no network
Speaker 16: rap City.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 16: And what I didn't even know about one O six
Speaker 16: in Park until I got tapped to do Mad Sports.
Speaker 16: I was living here in the Tri State. I was
Speaker 16: living in Jersey and I was coming into the city
Speaker 16: all the time. And so uh, they changed a New
Speaker 16: York New York's and new Hub and all this other stuff,
Speaker 16: and I started doing Mad Sports.
Speaker 1: I started hosting that show. So I had to come
Speaker 1: up to the BT offices one day. I see AJ.
Speaker 16: But I had known AJ from Howard when he was
Speaker 16: a party promoter and a kid, you know, a dude
Speaker 16: around town in DC from you know, college scene. We
Speaker 16: would bump heads a lot.
Speaker 4: So I was like, oh you doing here?
Speaker 1: He's like yo on the new show.
Speaker 4: I was like, what's the show?
Speaker 1: He's like one of those six in Park. I was
Speaker 1: like boom back, like, let me know.
Speaker 16: If you need anything, you know, good going, Good to
Speaker 16: see you. I'll catch you on I'm doing Mass Sports.
Speaker 16: And that's how I found out about One of six
Speaker 16: and Park.
Speaker 4: There.
Speaker 9: It just baffles my mind because when you got two
Speaker 9: talented people like yourselves. You would think that y'a would
Speaker 9: always be top of the mind.
Speaker 5: For BT.
Speaker 1: It's the game. Yeah, the game.
Speaker 16: Come on, you've seen it. You've seen both of us,
Speaker 16: all of us seen the game is. And let me
Speaker 16: say this for the people who are listening. When you
Speaker 16: get into this industry, any media, music, entertainment and all
Speaker 16: those other things, remember that you chose this game because
Speaker 16: the games got rules that you did not set in place.
Speaker 1: You got to learn how to roll with.
Speaker 16: Them rules and keep getting getting ahead or become a
Speaker 16: bitter old used to be I could have been type
Speaker 16: of mouth. I was like, I them is the rules,
Speaker 16: keep it moving. I still go out every weekend and
Speaker 16: go get a bag telling jokes, you know. So when
Speaker 16: they making all these changes and things are going up
Speaker 16: and down, Okay, I'll see y'all on Monday, cause I'm
Speaker 16: in Tallahassee this weekend. Oh you catch me, and you
Speaker 16: know I'll be in La this week and tell a joke.
Speaker 16: So for me, a lot of that got to roll
Speaker 16: off my back. And I'm remembering this.
Speaker 1: The game man.
Speaker 4: Then they after you guys, was Ticker and then Tiger,
Speaker 4: so Ticker was on with us. Ticker started doing news
Speaker 4: and then he became like, it's three hopes.
Speaker 16: So it was me, Lez and Tigger, and then Steven
Speaker 16: came and was like, Okay, why don't we just keep
Speaker 16: Ticker And that's how that worked.
Speaker 1: Now, Ticker and I go back to Sunday Night hip
Speaker 1: Hop show on.
Speaker 16: WPGC, and and that's what we me and Tigger used
Speaker 16: to flow every Sunday night.
Speaker 5: You you was always nicer than Ticket too.
Speaker 4: By the way, that's gonna throw that out there as
Speaker 4: a rapper, Smooter Ticket.
Speaker 16: You know, while I am a comedian and I take
Speaker 16: hip hop very very seriously, I never tried to be
Speaker 16: on the show saying I'm a rapper.
Speaker 1: Let me stay in my place because this is too hot.
Speaker 16: I like cats who have record deals, cats who are
Speaker 16: moving and shaking in this industry that we love so much,
Speaker 16: So let them shine.
Speaker 4: I want to ask too. You know, back then, you know,
Speaker 4: when we see people on TV, for some reason, we
Speaker 4: automatically thought they was rich, right, we thought they were
Speaker 4: getting brand. They talk, That's what you see them on television, right.
Speaker 4: Do you remember how much you were making back then?
Speaker 16: Did anybody see the documentary when Deborly said we were
Speaker 16: on a shoe string budget. You know that little thing
Speaker 16: at the end of the shoe string. Yes, that's the
Speaker 16: budget we would not the little plastic. Yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 16: the budget we had at Rap City. So that's why
Speaker 16: I kept a radio job and comedy. So when I
Speaker 16: do Rap Studio, do television, do radio, those things are
Speaker 16: just adding to I'm already getting.
Speaker 1: But I wasn't made. I wasn't becoming wealthy.
Speaker 4: All right. When we come back with Kicking It with
Speaker 4: Joe Claire, so don't move, it's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning,
Speaker 4: wanting everybody. It's the dej n V. Charlamagne the guy
Speaker 4: we are the Breakfast Club with Kicking It with Joe
Speaker 4: Claire of course from Rap City Charlomagne. Another thing too.
Speaker 9: I was watching the doc Man, I've always loved the
Speaker 9: interview you did with Big. That's that's the iconic interview.
Speaker 9: And I knew that was Big.
Speaker 4: I couldn't.
Speaker 9: I knew that was Big last interview. It was his
Speaker 9: last television interview. I think I think I think Swave
Speaker 9: might have been he was going, he went, did the radio? Now,
Speaker 9: did y'all shoot that in La?
Speaker 4: Shot it in La?
Speaker 16: That's what we was laying like in the park right
Speaker 16: we sent them, so we really were on a sound
Speaker 16: stage and they were shooting the hypnotized video.
Speaker 4: The dance scenes were going on in there.
Speaker 16: So they took a break from that sat us outside
Speaker 16: and that's how that interview popped off.
Speaker 9: Always wondered, were you concerned for your safety shooting that
Speaker 9: in LA at the time, because it was all the
Speaker 9: East Coast West Coast beef and all of that.
Speaker 16: I'm concerned for my safety every day, so my head
Speaker 16: is always on a swivel. So I didn't feel any
Speaker 16: more concern than I normally feel when I go to
Speaker 16: l A. I just know, like doing Rap City. The
Speaker 16: thing that I knew was when you go to somebody hood,
Speaker 16: when you go to a city, you a bide by.
Speaker 16: They rules you shut your mouth, don't start no shit
Speaker 16: won't be no. So Nah, I didn't have any extra
Speaker 16: concerns for my safety that day. We had plenty of
Speaker 16: security Anama civilian.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 16: Then I sit and I do the interview. It's a
Speaker 16: great day season Junior Mafia right behind us, the dancing
Speaker 16: girls over there, of course, and then BIGGI said you
Speaker 16: wanna smoke something?
Speaker 1: The day just got better I'm not a.
Speaker 16: Smoker, but if you're gonna smoke with somebody, you're gonna
Speaker 16: smoke with Biggie Smoke. So I had to catch a
Speaker 16: red eye that night because I was going out on
Speaker 16: the Deaf Comedy Jam tour.
Speaker 4: This was the first night, so I had to fly
Speaker 4: home Wednesday.
Speaker 16: After getting the interview, pack my bags, get on the
Speaker 16: tour buses coming from Kicking Preland, the Jersey coming down
Speaker 16: to DC. Pick me up, and then we drive to Dallas.
Speaker 16: We do the show in Dallas. The next night we
Speaker 16: go to Houston. Do the show in Houston. Had a
Speaker 16: ball and three thirty four o'clock in the morning, kid
Speaker 16: called my phone.
Speaker 4: Like, Yo, they say, Biggie yuy shot.
Speaker 1: You know it's four o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 16: You've been out drinking, Like whatever, you know, it's just
Speaker 16: some more hip hop here say. Then my girlfriend at the.
Speaker 4: Time called me.
Speaker 1: She was like, they say, biggie guys shot.
Speaker 16: Let me on headline news. Y'a remember headline news. Then
Speaker 16: every half our first story, rapper.
Speaker 1: Christopher Wallace has gunned down.
Speaker 4: At this point, the interview wasn't out.
Speaker 5: Interview's not out.
Speaker 16: I just it was this is Sunday morning. I just
Speaker 16: was dead Wednesday. This is Sunday morning at six in
Speaker 16: the morning. So nah, no interview out.
Speaker 1: They ain't get time to try. They still in la party.
Speaker 16: And just those next couple of weeks, when I got
Speaker 16: to reflect on it, I realized I was just numb
Speaker 16: because Tupac had just died and now Biggie got killed.
Speaker 1: I was like, we cannot be that dumb?
Speaker 9: Are we?
Speaker 1: Black folks were really not that stupid?
Speaker 10: Are we? Is this who we are?
Speaker 1: Time has sewn that. Unfortunately, it's sad.
Speaker 10: It was.
Speaker 1: It was one of those times Charlemagne and Envy where
Speaker 1: I really just I'm very us.
Speaker 16: I was like, man, I man a lot of that,
Speaker 16: so a lot of the like hanging out and I
Speaker 16: just did not want to do like because I don't
Speaker 16: know what you on. And then and I watched I
Speaker 16: knew some of the most righteous dudes. Next thing I know,
Speaker 16: he come with the chain and he gotta get his
Speaker 16: swag together. You you, you've been made since you was
Speaker 16: nineteen years and ten years old.

Speaker 1: what you staying on you switching up because you think
Speaker 1: this is what the coach are doing. Man, my head
Speaker 1: and has colored how I see us.
Speaker 4: Since then, nothing has changed your mind about it.
Speaker 16: I mean remember, leading up to that, I sat in
Speaker 16: the middle of the East Coast West Coast thing. Every week,
Speaker 16: every day, every rapper's got something to say about the
Speaker 16: other coast.
Speaker 4: That what made you start saying the East Coast West
Speaker 4: Coast worldwide.
Speaker 1: I took it straight from the Lost Boys.
Speaker 16: Yes, we really need to we really need to do
Speaker 16: this big shout out to Mac ten and Fat Joe
Speaker 16: because I don't know if you guys remember they did
Speaker 16: a movie Thinking in Water Up something like that, and
Speaker 16: then and Fat Joe realized and Fat Joe used to
Speaker 16: be coming up to this show like man that I'm
Speaker 16: keeping the flame going on this East.
Speaker 1: Coast West Coast. After that, I see Joe and he's like, naw,
Speaker 1: they cool.
Speaker 4: And then as you used to see Mac tenn and
Speaker 4: Mac then.
Speaker 1: Like Noah, they cool. They super cool.
Speaker 16: And then you found out it really wasn't the East
Speaker 16: Coast versus it was the media making it and it
Speaker 16: was Park against Biggie, and they used to be best
Speaker 16: friends and now we're looking at really just came down
Speaker 16: the two best friends fell out. Now they have other influences,
Speaker 16: and that just got.
Speaker 3: Bigger and bigger and bigger the control.
Speaker 9: You know, we have conversations on the Breakfast Club that
Speaker 9: have ended up confrontational. Did y'all have any of those
Speaker 9: on Rap City?

Speaker 22: I know because I one that has been through it
Speaker 22: and we are praying for you.
Speaker 4: But you're going through this divorce. How you doing, Mama?
Speaker 4: You know I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 22: It takes every day to just really sit and just
Speaker 22: be quiet in your thoughts, take care of me. But
Speaker 22: one thing I know is you give God your pain,
Speaker 22: he will give you his power.
Speaker 13: Period.
Speaker 22: So every day I'm like, here you go, you got
Speaker 22: room for more, here's some more.
Speaker 4: You just taking it day by day.
Speaker 22: You know, how were you handling this being a mom Monica?
Speaker 22: You know Monica that is my north star. Yeah, and
Speaker 22: I can definitely tell you that I don't know if
Speaker 22: I would handle this the same way without her, because
Speaker 22: today I'm able to look at her and I can say,
Speaker 22: what would I advise.
Speaker 4: You if you were in my shoes? Yes, and it
Speaker 4: changes everything. So I'm so thankful now we know Geez
Speaker 4: is a notoriously private person, right correct? So if you
Speaker 4: know you're soon to be uh x as a private person,
Speaker 4: maybe X maybe they working, but from what we know now,
Speaker 4: soon to be ex that.
Speaker 9: If you know you're soon to be a private person,
Speaker 9: even though it's your story, tell should you speak on
Speaker 9: it or do you not owe that person anything anymore?
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's so public now, So I guess
Speaker 4: she feels like she she you know, some things that
Speaker 4: she wants to get off a chest. But if they
Speaker 4: wanted to work, if she wants it to work, and
Speaker 4: she knows your significant other a's a private person, I
Speaker 4: think you would try to respect their wishes. I was
Speaker 4: if you was Genie, Ma, Okay, what would you do?
Speaker 9: I'd write a book and I would wait till my
Speaker 9: book comes out, and then I would say all of
Speaker 9: this on my book tour. Have y'all not learned anything
Speaker 9: from Jada Pinkett Smith? Okay, all right, but Jeezi got
Speaker 9: a book out, But Gzi ain't gonna roll, He ain't
Speaker 9: gonna ain't.
Speaker 4: Gonna move like the gosh. If I was Genie Man,
Speaker 4: I would just wait, write a book and then use
Speaker 4: this on my book tour. Yes, okay, And lastly, let's
Speaker 4: talk Monica.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 4: During the live conversation that the shop, Monica opened up
Speaker 4: about being forgotten by in the music industry. Oh forgot Monica?
Speaker 4: She says, She's been nominated for several awards, but I
Speaker 4: guess only one one, h and that was the one
Speaker 4: Soul Tree Award in twenty twenty, almost twenty years after
Speaker 4: she hosted.
Speaker 6: What I learned in those moments is that there's a
Speaker 6: plan for all of our lives, and it's orchestrated by
Speaker 6: somebody bigger than every person in this room. And what
Speaker 6: was meant to happen was for my life to change
Speaker 6: that day, and I was able to really enjoy my
Speaker 6: career because I didn't have any expectations.
Speaker 18: I was not worried about Awards.
Speaker 6: I'm actually a person that for all the records I've broken,
Speaker 6: I really have never won any awards. I'm really the
Speaker 6: most forgotten if you think about it. I'm pretty much
Speaker 6: the underdog, but I sit very comfortably in it because
Speaker 6: I can still go where I want, do what I won't,
Speaker 6: live how I want. But when I say that, I
Speaker 6: am often forgotten. I was hosting the Soul Train Awards,
Speaker 6: was nominated for five three of my songs in one
Speaker 6: category and still lost. But I went out to eat
Speaker 6: and kick my regular after. I was not bothered because
Speaker 6: that's not what I do it.
Speaker 5: For Wow bombs. For Monica.
Speaker 9: I feel like we celebrate Monica frequently and often no
Speaker 9: and what Monica may or may not do, so she
Speaker 9: is the subject of debates. Monica and Brandy has been
Speaker 9: debated at barber shops and dice games for years.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I don't think we celebrate Monica as we
Speaker 4: should the amount of hits and the amount of the
Speaker 4: records that she's put on the board, and even myself.
Speaker 4: You know, I got to this summer I was actually
Speaker 4: on tour with Monica. It was like an R and
Speaker 4: B tour, R and B and comedy tour and you
Speaker 4: just meeting personally. I forgot how many hits and how
Speaker 4: many records she had. Man, when she was performing, she
Speaker 4: was just what I was, was just hit after hit
Speaker 4: after hitting. The crowd was singing you be like, Damn,
Speaker 4: I forgot about that. Damn I forgot about Monica and
Speaker 4: Brandy had their verses. I know, I was on this
Speaker 4: radio telling y'all I got Monica all day long. Look,
Speaker 4: I think I think for a lot of people in
Speaker 4: our generation, at least gonna speak for me. I'm not
Speaker 4: gonna speak for everybody, okay, because I can't no such thing.
Speaker 4: But I feel like it's Mary J. Blige and then
Speaker 4: as far as solo R and B female artists, it's
Speaker 4: Monica for me, for me and my generation. For me,
Speaker 4: I'm just stound there trying to say, marry Ja, Yeah
Speaker 4: she's married. You know that's she's a god. She's another
Speaker 4: let that it's Monica. Yeah, that's just my personal opinion.
Speaker 4: Just trying to think before I agree with You'm trying
Speaker 4: to think if there's anybody.
Speaker 9: Else fight yourself in the comments, argue with your stuff,
Speaker 9: because I don't be on there check it off.
Speaker 5: You ain't gonna be arguing with.
Speaker 4: Me from that era? You mean from our era to
Speaker 4: nineteen hundreds us, I'm talking about our generation.
Speaker 9: I ain't talking about all time. I'm talking about from
Speaker 9: our generation. Yeah, I would agree for me and mine.
Speaker 9: I would agree it's married and it's Monica.
Speaker 4: I would agree with you.
Speaker 5: R and B solo female artist from.
Speaker 4: That Yeah, I would agree with you.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I can't think anybody else? Can you think of about us?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 9: Nor read for the rican you say she care or
Speaker 9: something you right now? You say, Jennifer Lopez, let me
Speaker 9: jumping in.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right. We gotta beat him up. They all right, Well,
Speaker 4: that is your room or report now don't candy, who
Speaker 4: are giving your donkey? Two?
Speaker 9: Listen for after the hour man, we need a teacher
Speaker 9: to come to the front of the congregation. This teacher's
Speaker 9: name is Stephen Taylor. Now this is a great teachable
Speaker 9: moment for teachers because if you don't want to be
Speaker 9: in the classroom, we don't want you there.
Speaker 4: We'll discuss, right, we'll get to that next. It's the
Speaker 4: breakfast Club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. Your mornings will
Speaker 4: never be the same.
Speaker 10: That donkey up to.
Speaker 16: Damn, but he hogged it's time for donkey.
Speaker 1: I me ain't trying to be donkey today no more.
Speaker 9: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
Speaker 9: not making these people do these.
Speaker 4: Days called donkey of the day, and it really caught
Speaker 4: me off guard.
Speaker 6: Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of day today?
Speaker 9: Well, jess hilarious donkey today for Friday, October thirteenth.
Speaker 4: Friday thirteenth, go to a Kansas teacher named Steven Taylor.
Speaker 9: Well, actually a Kansas teacher who got fired named Steven Taylor. Yes,
Speaker 9: Steven Taylor was fired from Old Laces Mill Creek Campus
Speaker 9: Alternative School in September after board members objected to a
Speaker 9: series of TikTok videos Steven Taylor had made. If it
Speaker 9: ain't that damn tiktac, it's Instagram. If it ain't that
Speaker 9: damn Instagram, it's Facebook. If it ain't that damn Facebook,
Speaker 9: it's the twenty fourth letter in the alphabet. When will
Speaker 9: y'all realize that whatever happens online and can absolutely impact
Speaker 9: your life offline?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 9: And Stephen Taylor has learned that the hard way, But
Speaker 9: maybe he doesn't care because he doesn't want to be
Speaker 9: a teacher anyway. See, Steven has been a stand up
Speaker 9: comedian for eight years and a teacher for six. And
Speaker 9: I feel for Steven because he says the reason he's
Speaker 9: doing comedy on Tickless is because he only gets paid
Speaker 9: forty five thousand dollars a year and he works all
Speaker 9: the time. I'm telling you right now, I'll be the
Speaker 9: first to tell you that I believe teachers are criminally underpaid.
Speaker 9: Dropping the clues bond for all the teachers out there.
Speaker 9: My mother was a public school teacher in Berkeley County
Speaker 9: and South Carolina. She told me that the most she
Speaker 9: ever made it annually was thirty grand a year. That's
Speaker 9: why teachers are so special, because most teachers want to
Speaker 9: be teachers because they genuinely enjoy teaching. They genuinely enjoy
Speaker 9: pouring into our badass little kids. Do you understand the
Speaker 9: enormous responsibility we put on teachers. Not only do they
Speaker 9: teach our kids, but the fact that we are trusting
Speaker 9: our kids were for another adult for several hours a day.
Speaker 9: Think about that. Think about that for a second. Just
Speaker 9: think about that, vy we all paying. It's red you
Speaker 9: a parent, We are parents, right? Think about how protective
Speaker 9: we are over our children, yet we entrust another adult
Speaker 9: to watch.
Speaker 5: Over them for several hours a day.
Speaker 9: It's quite unbelievable that we trust teachers the way we do,
Speaker 9: yet we don't compensate them financially, okay, the way they
Speaker 9: should be anyway. And in some cases you end up
Speaker 9: getting guys like Steven Taylor who eventually revealed themselves to
Speaker 9: be people who shouldn't be teachers. Would you like to
Speaker 9: know some of the things Steven Taylor was doing, Well,
Speaker 9: let's go to tick Seed for the report.
Speaker 24: Teachers, if a student is annoying you, just remember you
Speaker 24: can lie. There's nothing that says you have to tell
Speaker 24: the truth all the time. I teach history, I tell
Speaker 24: my students the wrong stuff all the time.
Speaker 10: When they annoy me.
Speaker 24: I tell them that Abraham Lincoln invented the car, that's
Speaker 24: why it's named after him. I tell them Logan Paul
Speaker 24: and Jake Paul had a great grandfather named Paul Revere.
Speaker 24: Because they don't even know how names work anymore. And
Speaker 24: I crop dust them all the time. I save a
Speaker 24: big milky lactose intolerant farts, and I drop bombs silently
Speaker 24: because I'm an adult and I know my body and
Speaker 24: then I just let it steal and then I.
Speaker 10: Walk away and I go, oh my god, it stinks
Speaker 10: over there. And then they have to sit with it.
Speaker 24: And you know what, they can't fire me because they
Speaker 24: need me too badly.
Speaker 5: Damn is mother, Steven Taylor, I was entertained.
Speaker 4: Cut it short.
Speaker 5: He's still getting donky now.
Speaker 9: He could just be practicing material via to cal But
Speaker 9: even if he is, our kids are too precious to be.
Speaker 5: Playing with now. I'm not with the crop dusty, all right,
Speaker 5: don't fought on my kids.
Speaker 9: Brouh directly or indirectly that I don't fart in my clothes,
Speaker 9: So I damn sure I'm not gonna fight on anybody,
Speaker 9: especially somebody's kids.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 9: I have a lot of rules to fart in. Number one,
Speaker 9: if you fought while you're praying, the prayer is nulling. Boy,
Speaker 9: don't even play with God like that, all right. The
Speaker 9: Bible says God created man and his image of courting
Speaker 9: to his likeness. So if someone was speaking to you
Speaker 9: and pleading to you about something, asking you for something,
Speaker 9: and they just fought it while he was asking you
Speaker 9: for something, would you take them serious or grant theory
Speaker 9: quests Okay, I know the answer is no. That's how
Speaker 9: God feels when you fought while praying.
Speaker 5: Okay.
Speaker 9: Another fart rule I have is I don't think men
Speaker 9: should fart around other men. I personally believe a man
Speaker 9: faughtening around another man is a very primal way of flirting.
Speaker 4: You want me to know what's your ass smell?
Speaker 10: Like?
Speaker 9: Okay, our lack thereof. So if it's a very loud
Speaker 9: fart with no smell, he's letting you know he's ready
Speaker 9: for action. Right Honestly, Stephen Taylor might have to register
Speaker 9: as a sex offender. Okay, intentionally, purposefully and wolfully dust
Speaker 9: cropping kids, all right? Do you know farting on humans
Speaker 9: under the age of eighteen is illegal? To your googles?
Speaker 9: Do your googles google it right now? It's a formal
Speaker 9: chemical warfare. You've heard of tear gas? Yes, farting on
Speaker 9: people is considered rare gas, and it's a felony in
Speaker 9: fifty states.
Speaker 5: Now his thing. I just made that whole foughting on
Speaker 5: people as a felony thing up.
Speaker 9: But you should believe me even when I'm lying, because
Speaker 9: a person that's honest about lying is a person you
Speaker 9: can trust. This is why you can't trust Stephen Taylor
Speaker 9: because Stephen said he lies to his students all the time.
Speaker 9: He says, I tell my students the wrong things all
Speaker 9: the time when they annoy me, right, when they annoy me.
Speaker 9: Clearly a joke. But the reason you can't trust him
Speaker 9: is because he says he only lies to his students
Speaker 9: when they annoy him. I don't trust people who lie
Speaker 9: when they are annoyed.
Speaker 5: Are mad.
Speaker 9: I only trust people who lie for fun like me.
Speaker 9: Now here's the reason Stephen Taylor is getting donkey today.
Speaker 9: It's simply because he made the choice to get fired.
Speaker 9: What do you mean he made the choice to get fired. Well,
Speaker 9: let's go to WDAF Fox Walford Report Police.
Speaker 5: Today.
Speaker 24: I woke up, got ready, went to work, only to
Speaker 24: find the parking lot empty because today's President's Day and
Speaker 24: I'm a teacher and also an idiot.
Speaker 17: Stephen Taylor has been a stand up comedian for eight
Speaker 17: years and teacher for six, most recently Oleeitha's Mill Creek
Speaker 17: Campus Alternative School, and he also makes TikTok videos.
Speaker 24: The reason that I'm doing comedy on TikTok is to
Speaker 24: make money, because you only pay me forty five thousand
Speaker 24: dollars a year, and I work all the time.
Speaker 17: The series of videos at the beginning of the school
Speaker 17: year got him called into HR with the unusual question
Speaker 17: how often he passes gas near students. He was told
Speaker 17: to take the videos down and ask to see the
Speaker 17: district's social media policy.
Speaker 24: They don't understand it. The social media policies are designed
Speaker 24: for MySpace. They are years behind where we're currently at
Speaker 24: in the world, which is TikTok is alive and well
Speaker 24: everybody's on it pulse.
Speaker 17: It goes on and say you shouldn't post anything online
Speaker 17: you wouldn't say at a public meeting or a member
Speaker 17: of the media. Dom Taylor's talked to both as the
Speaker 17: district moved for termination after he says he refused to
Speaker 17: sign a non disclosure agreement and resign.
Speaker 9: All you had to do was take the video down, Stephen,
Speaker 9: and you would still have your job. Are you making
Speaker 9: forty five thousand dollars a year on ttoko bell If not,
Speaker 9: what's the point?
Speaker 4: Okay, this is what I'll be saying. When folks choose
Speaker 4: viral overvalue, a paycheck has actual little, actual monetary value.
Speaker 4: Going viral on TikTok boom could have some monetary value,
Speaker 4: but clearly for you it's not.
Speaker 9: And if ticket Hold is not paying your bills, then
Speaker 9: there's nothing to discuss. Just take the video down. But Stephen,
Speaker 9: God works in not so mysterious ways. I'm glad you
Speaker 9: didn't take it down because it's good. Know what your
Speaker 9: priorities are, all right. You don't want to be a
Speaker 9: teacher anyway, You want to be a stand up comic.
Speaker 9: We don't want you to be a teacher because you
Speaker 9: don't want to be. If your priority when you are
Speaker 9: in the classroom is not our kids, then beat it,
Speaker 9: all right. We only need teachers teaching our kids that
Speaker 9: want to be there for a paycheck. Is your motivation
Speaker 9: for being a teacher, then you have zero motivation because
Speaker 9: teachers don't make no damn money. Sadly, Okay, all right,
Speaker 9: But Steven, I need you to hear this. Teaching is
Speaker 9: not a job. It's a lifestyle. It permeates your whole life.
Speaker 9: All you doing, Steven is permeating poops. Okay, And always remember,
Speaker 9: a teacher cannot teach anybody anything. A teacher can only
Speaker 9: make you think. And Stephen Taylor's case, he doesn't want
Speaker 9: to teach anybody anything. He can only make things stink.
Speaker 9: Please give Steven Taylor the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
Speaker 8: Oh no, you are the dog gee of the day,
Speaker 8: the dog gee all the day.
Speaker 4: So you've never cropped ust to the plane before.
Speaker 5: I don't fart in my clothes, you notice.
Speaker 4: I think that's a lie. I don't fought in my clothes.
Speaker 9: I don't disrespect me. I don't fart in my clothes.
Speaker 9: I don't believe it clothes one of the times I'm lying,
Speaker 9: I don't fart my clothes. How do I know if
Speaker 9: you're telling the truth when you always LYE, I'm not
Speaker 9: always lying? First of all, did you tell you when
Speaker 9: I'm lying? That's why you can trust me? Okay, A
Speaker 9: person that's honest about lying is a person you can trust.
Speaker 9: I tell you believe me when I'm lying. I tell
Speaker 9: you before I lie that i'm lying. I tell you
Speaker 9: immediately after i'mlying. I lie that i'm lying.
Speaker 4: You're lying? Red? Have you ever passed gas on a plane?
Speaker 10: Red? You lie?
Speaker 9: I feel like yes, people who pass gas on the
Speaker 9: plane or poop on the plane should be arrested.
Speaker 4: Innocent closed space The air is already very thin up there.
Speaker 4: It's disgusting sending you ever passed gas on a plane.
Speaker 4: She's saying, talk to Nick. That means yes, Nick, a
Speaker 4: lion you when you went to New Or leads you
Speaker 4: that long gass fight. You're in past gas one time, no.
Speaker 9: Man clothes and if you go to the bathroom like
Speaker 9: a civilized person, pull your pants.
Speaker 5: Down, fart and go back to your seat.
Speaker 9: Cap All right, well, I can only tell you, all right, well,
Speaker 9: I ain't here to make you understand.
Speaker 4: When we come back, Vlad, we'll be joining us. Of course.
Speaker 4: You know Blad DJ Ladd. He has Blad TV, and
Speaker 4: we're gonna kick it with him when we come back.
Speaker 4: It's crazy how Vlad don't sound right by itself. You
Speaker 4: either got to say DJA Blad TV. When you just
Speaker 4: say Vlad, it don't sound right, not at all. But
Speaker 4: we're gonna kick it with it when we come back.
Speaker 4: It's the breakfast Slow, come on.
Speaker 1: The Breakfast Club morning.
Speaker 4: Everybody is DJ n V, Charlamagne, the gud. We are
Speaker 4: the breakfast Club. You got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed,
Speaker 4: I know miss DJ Flad, but everybody else knows Miss
Speaker 4: Blad TV flat here.
Speaker 10: What up, Lad? What's up?
Speaker 1: It's been a minute man.
Speaker 9: First of all, Blad, I want to tell you congratulations
Speaker 9: because you you are responsible for helping the family of
Speaker 9: two Oxy Corps get justice enclosure because of some of
Speaker 9: your interviews you did with Keef d on Black TV.
Speaker 5: I've already said it. I think you should win a Peabody.
Speaker 9: If you was any other journalist outside of hip hop,
Speaker 9: I think you would get get some type of an
Speaker 9: award for that.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 5: How do you feel, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, the purpose wasn't for him to get locked up
Speaker 3: or anything else like that, because, as I've said before,
Speaker 3: when Las Vegas ped reached out to me, I didn't respond.
Speaker 3: I didn't cooperate.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 3: My whole thing was, this is a story I'd heard
Speaker 3: for I mean for a long time, for close to
Speaker 3: about eighteen years or so, and by actually sitting down
Speaker 3: with Keifey and getting his whole story from beginning to end,
Speaker 3: at the end of the interview, I'm like, okay, I
Speaker 3: pretty much saw the case at this point. A shout
Speaker 3: out to Greg Katie who actually got the you know,
Speaker 3: the original KVD confession. But in terms of the public
Speaker 3: that was the first time Kify actually told the entire
Speaker 3: story of how it happened, what led up to it,
Speaker 3: what happened that night, what happened afterwards. So I mean, ultimately,
Speaker 3: I don't think anyone could really be surprised.
Speaker 4: I thought from maybe the interviews it made it seem
Speaker 4: like he had a deal already on the table. Was
Speaker 4: any of that true? Like that thought that was the
Speaker 4: reason why he was able to talk about it, right.
Speaker 3: So he had a profit agreement. So when Greg Katy
Speaker 3: met up with him, keefy d was Greg Katying. Greg
Speaker 3: Katy was was an LAPD investigator who was looking into
Speaker 3: the entire case. He had caught Keefe in this huge
Speaker 3: PCP ring and Keify was facing life in prison. So
Speaker 3: what happened was there's something called a profit agreement aka
Speaker 3: queen for a day, meaning that you could sit down
Speaker 3: with someone that could ask you a whole bunch of
Speaker 3: questions and you could admit to all the crimes you
Speaker 3: did that day and you can't be charged with any
Speaker 3: of those crimes, and in exchange, they dropped the whole
Speaker 3: PCP case against him. He was able to walk free.
Speaker 3: But the thing about profit agreements, from what I understand
Speaker 3: is that it's called queen for a day because it's
Speaker 3: only valid that particular day. So if you choose to
Speaker 3: retell that story afterwards, you could potentially get charged for it.
Speaker 3: A little bit of a gray area, you know, And
Speaker 3: I think that his lawd is probably going to be
Speaker 3: fighting in terms of that. But I think Keithy was
Speaker 3: in an assumption that he said at once he could
Speaker 3: say it as many times as he wants, and I
Speaker 3: don't think that's the case when it comes to proffer agreements.
Speaker 4: When you say that Vegas police wanted you to co op,
Speaker 4: what did that mean?
Speaker 3: I think they wanted the raw footage. Okay, I actually
Speaker 3: have the voicemails from them like oh, we've been trying
Speaker 3: to reach you and everything else like that, and I
Speaker 3: think they they thought that maybe there's a bunch of
Speaker 3: things in because we did two interviews that they could
Speaker 3: use in the case that we didn't publicly release. But
Speaker 3: if you know flat TV and both of you have
Speaker 3: been on flat TV, we use damn near every second
Speaker 3: of the footage, so they're kind of barking up the
Speaker 3: wrong tree. But my whole thing was that if someone
Speaker 3: interviews on my platform, I'm not going to turn around
Speaker 3: and then work with the police against them, regardless of
Speaker 3: what it is that they said. It's just business wise,
Speaker 3: you know, in terms of my values, is not what
Speaker 3: I do. So I didn't choose to cooperate.
Speaker 5: By way, What could they ask you that they didn't
Speaker 5: hear themselves.
Speaker 3: It's all out there, and he's done multiple interviews. It's
Speaker 3: not just flat TV. Yeah he did that. He did
Speaker 3: a few other ones. So it's kind of like he.
Speaker 5: Wrote a book.
Speaker 4: He wrote a book.
Speaker 10: Well, and that's the whole thing.
Speaker 3: People thought that I got this whole confession out of
Speaker 3: the blue, Like before we did the interview, we got a.
Speaker 1: Copy of the book.
Speaker 3: We read through the entire book, and that interview was
Speaker 3: the blueprint of that interview was that book. So there
Speaker 3: are certain parts where I asked him a question he
Speaker 3: didn't really want to answer it. My thing was like, well,
Speaker 3: the book says X, Y and Z and then so
Speaker 3: he had to kind of address that. But if you
Speaker 3: write a book about a crime, I have no problems
Speaker 3: interviewing you about the book that you wrote.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's not even just a KVD interview that
Speaker 9: I think I would say constitution you winning something like
Speaker 9: a peabody.
Speaker 4: It's all the interviews you did surrounding it. It's the
Speaker 4: Grey Kating who else?
Speaker 13: Who?
Speaker 9: Like the if this is the Vlad cinematic universe, what
Speaker 9: would be all the interviews you got to watch to
Speaker 9: get the full start?
Speaker 3: I mean Greg, Greg Kating, who was the lead investigator,
Speaker 3: Chris Carroll, who was the first responder that showed up,
Speaker 3: you know, at the scene after a Pak got shot
Speaker 3: and Shug got Grace Edi. I mean, who's the car
Speaker 3: behind Tupac when he got killed?
Speaker 4: So to watch the said watch the Kifi Greg kting.
Speaker 3: Ed, I mean Chris Carroll. Yeah, just a lot of
Speaker 3: pieces got put together.
Speaker 4: Now did he ever say it was was Pack the
Speaker 4: attended target or was it Shugary intended target? Or because
Speaker 4: I did see that they thought Pak was grabbing a
Speaker 4: gun allegedly and they were returning fire or something like that.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 3: When I pressed him on that, he didn't really, you know,
Speaker 3: admit to that. But from everything I heard. I remember,
Speaker 3: I talked to the co writer of that book and
Speaker 3: he told me that when he first met up with Kifi,
Speaker 3: he was like, look, man, I'm I'm very pro black,
Speaker 3: I'm very positive. How do you feel about, you know,
Speaker 3: your role in killing one of you know, one of
Speaker 3: our great hip hop icons. And Keifi's response was, they
Speaker 3: had no business putting their hands on my on my nephew,
Speaker 3: like you know what I'm saying. And the thing is,
Speaker 3: like everyone is so shocked because it's Tupac. But right now,
Speaker 3: somewhere in America, some you know, gang affiliate gang member
Speaker 3: just got beat up and it's out there grabbing their
Speaker 3: gun right now to go retaliate.
Speaker 4: Of course, this is.
Speaker 3: Standard procedure when it comes to this type of world.
Speaker 3: So so everyone's shocked because it's Tupaca. We love Tupac,
Speaker 3: but this is how things happen in this type of lifestyle. Unfortunately, unfortunately.
Speaker 9: You know, it's interesting when you say your intention wasn't
Speaker 9: to solve the case. So I guess people would say,
Speaker 9: what is the point of doing all of these interviews?
Speaker 9: What is Vlad TV's intention when he puts together all
Speaker 9: of these different interviews.
Speaker 3: My intention wasn't for him to be convicted to put
Speaker 3: him in jail. Like, I'm just a huge Tupac fan. Like,
Speaker 3: if you you know, I loved All Eyes on Me
Speaker 3: is one of my favorite all time albums. I mean what,
Speaker 3: he's just such a charismatic individual. I mean, you could
Speaker 3: it'd be hard to argue that Tupac is not the
Speaker 3: greatest rapper of all time. Shout out to Tabiggie, shout
Speaker 3: out to Nipsey. But if you look at worldwide, you
Speaker 3: see more Tupac murals around the world than any other
Speaker 3: rap And that's because I think that outside of the
Speaker 3: rapping and the good songs, there was a social commentary
Speaker 3: involved in what he did. There was the struggle and
Speaker 3: that everyone in every country could really relate to. So
Speaker 3: my whole thing is like, oh, this is my favorite rapper,
Speaker 3: and here's a story that's unsolved. But like everyone in
Speaker 3: law knew this story. It was like the worst kept
Speaker 3: secret in LA. So let's try to put it out
Speaker 3: there and bring out to the public because there's so
Speaker 3: many conspiracy theories abound. It sug had him killed, the
Speaker 3: government had it killed, had him killed.
Speaker 4: He's in Cuba.
Speaker 1: Somewhere, like you know what I mean, He's still alive.
Speaker 3: He's you know, he faked his own death. It's like
Speaker 3: a lot of them was so ridiculous that I wanted
Speaker 3: to put a piece together that that had all the
Speaker 3: different angles of the same story and they're all matching up.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 4: Was you was supposed to interview with Keef D again
Speaker 4: before he was raided up?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, he reached out to me. We had a conversation.
Speaker 3: He had already gotten arrested, his house got raided, and
Speaker 3: I'm like, all right, well, I'm just gonna leave it alone.
Speaker 3: But then he reached out to me, had a conversation
Speaker 3: with me, and then you know, his co writer was
Speaker 3: the one that I kind of communicate with a lot
Speaker 3: when it comes to this type of thing. They're like,
Speaker 3: he wants to do another interview. It's like, all right,
Speaker 3: you know, we gave him.
Speaker 4: A deposit he hadn't asked for me paid for interview.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I paid for for both of his interviews.
Speaker 4: Pays for a lot of interviews. People don't know that.
Speaker 3: It's like, well, for certain interviews and other ones that
Speaker 3: I don't pay for my regular guests, I'll get paid absolutely,
Speaker 3: which which makes sense Boosy and tk kirkl regular guests
Speaker 3: get paid if you see him on blad TV over
Speaker 3: and over again. You know, we make money, so we
Speaker 3: choose to compensate our guest as well. So I mean
Speaker 3: he reached out, we gave him like a small deposit,
Speaker 3: wasn't It wasn't really a lot of money, And I
Speaker 3: figured that I'm probably not going to see this again
Speaker 3: because you know, his house got raided and I was
Speaker 3: hearing that there was a grand jury underway and there
Speaker 3: was a possible indictment coming. And from what I understand,
Speaker 3: he hit up a few other outlets and got deposits
Speaker 3: from all of them. So I think he was just
Speaker 3: trying to gather up money because he knew that he
Speaker 3: was about to go away.
Speaker 10: So it is what it is.
Speaker 6: To me.
Speaker 3: It was not a big deal and it was to
Speaker 3: be expected.
Speaker 4: All right when we come back with kicking him with
Speaker 4: Vlad TV some more.
Speaker 1: So don't move.
Speaker 4: It's the breakfast club on b ET morning. Everybody is
Speaker 4: DJ n V Charlemagne, the guy. We are the breakfast
Speaker 4: club were still kicking it with DJ Vlad Vlad TV Charlamagne.
Speaker 5: Now you know, this situation doesn't help.
Speaker 4: The rumors are the stigma of the lad curselad.
Speaker 9: Curse Ladder defend. People say a lot of folks get
Speaker 9: jammed up after they interview with you. Do you ever
Speaker 9: feel bad or regrets, you know, doing those interviews after
Speaker 9: folks get caught.
Speaker 3: Well, the stigma's a stigma, man like, like people going
Speaker 3: to say, last the police blattis de fans. I've heard
Speaker 3: it literally for fifteen years, you know, but ultimately it's
Speaker 3: just not true. But in this case, I mean it
Speaker 3: is true to a certain degree. And you know, if
Speaker 3: people are mad at me for helping to solve the
Speaker 3: murder of the greatest rapper of all time, I'm okay
Speaker 3: with that now.
Speaker 4: Also, recently, you did an open letter to I always
Speaker 4: call it an open letter, open let it's kind of
Speaker 4: like an open tweet, yeah, to Drake and Calik. Correct, Now,
Speaker 4: why did you feel like you wanted to write a
Speaker 4: tweet to them?
Speaker 3: Well, you start of see what's been happening right when
Speaker 3: you used to look at the Gaza Israel situation. It's horrific.
Speaker 3: And I put out a statement about that myself where
Speaker 3: I said that I feel sorry for all the citizens
Speaker 3: you know, from Israel and Palestine that are caught up
Speaker 3: and what their leaders are choosing to do. You know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. I don't agree with what Netanyahoo has
Speaker 3: done in Gaza in terms of blockading the country, reincreating
Speaker 3: essentially an open air prison. And I definitely don't support
Speaker 3: what Hamas did in terms of killing hundreds of people,
Speaker 3: beheading babies and everything else like that. It's a serious topic.
Speaker 3: And when I sat back and looked at it, it's like, Okay,
Speaker 3: Drake is the most famous Jewish person on earth essentially, right,
Speaker 3: who else cou could do a tour and fill out
Speaker 3: colosseums worldwide? Who's Jewish besides Drake? Calin is the most
Speaker 3: famous Palestinian in the world. But neither one of them
Speaker 3: has said anything about this at all. And people saying, well, well,
Speaker 3: they're not politicians whatever. They influence hundreds of millions of people,
Speaker 3: which ultimately has an influence on the world, and you're
Speaker 3: not choosing to say anything. And Drake, who has a
Speaker 3: Jewish mother, you know, which by Jewish law makes him Jewish,
Speaker 3: but not only that, his parents got divorced when he
Speaker 3: was five years old, and he grew up with his
Speaker 3: Jewish mother and her Jewish relatives in Forest Hills, which
Speaker 3: is a Jewish community in Toronto.
Speaker 1: He had a bar mitzvah.
Speaker 3: And then when this happens, he doesn't say anything because
Speaker 3: I think that he doesn't want to potentially affect his
Speaker 3: record sales.
Speaker 5: Well, why did they have to say anything him? Like,
Speaker 5: why why does him RK. Kalin have to say anything publicly?
Speaker 3: They don't have to say anything, But I'm saying as
Speaker 3: representatives of these communities, their voices are powerful and they
Speaker 3: should say.
Speaker 4: Something, just like I have said what it is supposed
Speaker 4: to say. Though, But you're educated on the topic, clearly,
Speaker 4: and they.
Speaker 3: Don't have people around them to educate them. They have
Speaker 3: access to the highest level of everybody, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean, in terms of professors, experts and so forth.
Speaker 9: But even being educated on something don't mean you have
Speaker 9: an understanding of it to be able to express it.
Speaker 9: And you don't want somebody to craft something for you
Speaker 9: and just post it on your social media. And I've
Speaker 9: been watching celebrities all week, you know, say some of
Speaker 9: the stupidest Like I saw Justin Bieber post pray for Israel,
Speaker 9: but he put up a picture of Palestine and had
Speaker 9: to pray for Israel over the picture of Palatine.
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like one of those things.
Speaker 9: If you really don't know what you're talking about, you
Speaker 9: probably should just sit it out.
Speaker 3: But you probably should learn about it because I mean
Speaker 3: this is before Drake was a rapper, he was Jewish,
Speaker 3: Before Khaled was a stuper producer, he was Palestinian. Like
Speaker 3: this runs deep. You know what I'm saying that this
Speaker 3: is the essence of who they are, of their families
Speaker 3: and their communities. Like Drake was raised in a Jewish community.
Speaker 3: I'm sure his relatives feel a certain type of way
Speaker 3: about this. And look like Drake has taken all types
Speaker 3: of shots of Kanye. When Kanye went out as Hitler rants,
Speaker 3: Drake didn't say anything specifically.
Speaker 1: About that, but he takes shots at him.
Speaker 4: Like if something happened with George Floyd or if something
Speaker 4: happened in our community, and you say absolutely positively nothing
Speaker 4: as a black person, right, I.
Speaker 9: Don't think you have to, though. I think if that's
Speaker 9: your thing, sure, but I don't think you're obligated to.
Speaker 3: You're not obligatd But I feel like you should say
Speaker 3: something in your position. And my example was Tupac when
Speaker 3: something happens that's close to his community. Pac was was
Speaker 3: gonna say something, well, yeah, but the caliber of you know,
Speaker 3: like where Drake is where Tupac was something I.
Speaker 5: Was about one to one As far as the type
Speaker 5: of people.
Speaker 9: They were, like Tupac was socially conscious, you know, like
Speaker 9: Tupac's mother was a radical, a black panther.
Speaker 4: That's not I don't I got it. That's not who
Speaker 4: those are. I'm not I get what you're saying, right,
Speaker 4: because if you look at what happened in our community
Speaker 4: during their time with George Floyd and people were protesting.
Speaker 4: I think everybody that had a little bit of influence
Speaker 4: as something, whether it was Lebron James, whether it's a comedian,
Speaker 4: whether it's a celebrity, whether it's an actor.
Speaker 3: All of those people always do those ron Lebron has
Speaker 3: just chimed in, but you're not always.
Speaker 5: Chiming in on social issues.
Speaker 4: That's when he's again, Michael Jordan has right, and people
Speaker 4: were saying Michael Jordan didn't so Danvers and there's a
Speaker 4: criticism with him.
Speaker 3: But ultimately, I feel like when you're at a certain level,
Speaker 3: like you have a responsibility because you have so many
Speaker 3: people like you could shift global thought with just a
Speaker 3: simple statement.
Speaker 9: But because to me, I'm like, what if drinking kald
Speaker 9: are doing things behind the scene. I think that's more
Speaker 9: powerful than a tweet or an Instagram post. Like, you're
Speaker 9: not going to change people's minds on a seventy five
Speaker 9: year old situation.
Speaker 4: How long had it just been going on for?
Speaker 9: How long?
Speaker 3: Thousands of years?
Speaker 1: Thousands?
Speaker 4: Yes, oh shoots, I know thousands.
Speaker 3: Okay, but yeah, man, it's said.
Speaker 9: I just don't want us to have a because I
Speaker 9: already think America has like unhealthy obsession with celebrity and
Speaker 9: like we're always looking for celebrity to fix the world problems.
Speaker 4: Like when I when I.
Speaker 9: Thought, I promise you when I was the first time
Speaker 9: I heard about this, I did not think of Draco call.
Speaker 9: I went to people like scholars and academics, you know,
Speaker 9: that's the people I want to hear from.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But but like Charlotte Maye, like before you were on
Speaker 3: the radio, you were black and you had to deal
Speaker 3: you have a black family, and you understand black issue.
Speaker 3: You know, like you you could injure, like you could
Speaker 3: walk out of the breakfast club right now and become
Speaker 3: a private citizen and never have to do anything, but
Speaker 3: you'll still be black. Certain things should run deep with you,
Speaker 3: you know, with everyone.
Speaker 4: But we don't know if they don't. You don't know
Speaker 4: how Draker Kalla feels about it, like what do we
Speaker 4: want to Instagram post a tweet. Ye, that's true because
Speaker 4: we don't know what they're doing. They could be behind it.
Speaker 3: Just you know, name mean more famous Palacinian than cant.
Speaker 4: I'm with you, but I don't know how. I can't
Speaker 4: say he don't feel anything about the situation because he didn't.
Speaker 3: Pot he's not but not speaking about it, but he's
Speaker 3: speaking about his new Jordan's you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: He's doing sneaker shopping right now. Drake is doing this whole,
Speaker 3: this whole like literally writing paragraphs about Joe Bunden because
Speaker 3: his feelings were hurt or album criticisms.
Speaker 1: So it's not like they're too busy.
Speaker 3: They have time to put out things, you know, like
Speaker 3: for example, like Andrew Tate was disparaging Canadian men. Did
Speaker 3: you see that? Yeah, he was saying, oh, yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm talking about it. He's saying, oh,
Speaker 3: a man from Canada, there's no such thing. Drake's respond
Speaker 3: Drake responds green light on Andrew Tate. So when Canada
Speaker 3: gets insulted, he needs to come up and say something.
Speaker 3: But when his own community that he grew up with
Speaker 3: his mother his everyone's like that he's remaining silent. But
Speaker 3: I think ultimately, and in my tweet, I think they're
Speaker 3: too worried about staying relevant, staying hot, and not getting
Speaker 3: a certain group of people not supporting them anymore.
Speaker 10: That's what I think.
Speaker 4: I don't see what could Drake and Kalen do to stop.
Speaker 3: Drake did a free Larry Hoover concert.
Speaker 9: That makes more sense because that's an actual action, Like,
Speaker 9: that's something they raise the way to fort hopefully Larry
Speaker 9: who can get free.
Speaker 4: Like, what could they do to stop a thousand year
Speaker 4: old wold.
Speaker 3: He can't stop and he didn't stop Larry Hoover from
Speaker 3: still being in prison, right, Larry Hoover still locked up,
Speaker 3: but he put his voice out there and he put
Speaker 3: his support out there, and it may make a difference
Speaker 3: in the long run.
Speaker 9: You're just saying that they have these platforms you'd like, Yes,
Speaker 9: I understand what you're saying. I just I've never seen
Speaker 9: him do that, So.
Speaker 3: I don't know why they was and they haven't, and
Speaker 3: that's that's unfortunate. And this is why I think that
Speaker 3: as time goes on and we're talking about many years
Speaker 3: in the future, their relevance will pass away as well.
Speaker 3: They won't live on for you know, eternity, like the
Speaker 3: iconic people like a Tupac.
Speaker 4: But we appreciate you for joining us. Blad TV, somebody
Speaker 4: check you out, follow you and all that good stuff.
Speaker 5: What interview should we be checking out right now?
