Speaker 9: Man?
Speaker 5: I feel blessed? Black and Holly favorite. What's happening?
Speaker 10: Yes, good morning? It is Wednesday, and it's hump day.
Speaker 10: Middle of the week. Hopefully you guys are having a
Speaker 10: great week so far. Today on the show, we have
Speaker 10: a writer and director, James Salmon will be joining us.
Speaker 10: Of course, he's the director and writer for the new
Speaker 10: movie Book of Clarence, which comes out this week.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's his second movie. His first movie was The
Speaker 4: Heart of day Fall. You know, that was the Western
Speaker 4: with a cash full of black people. And this he
Speaker 4: took us to the Old West. Now he's taking us
Speaker 4: to the New Testament. Really really really good movie, man,
Speaker 4: Just one of those movies that's very layered, one of
Speaker 4: those movies that makes you think. So I like having
Speaker 4: these conversations. It's difficult to have these conversations on ed
Speaker 4: because we already saw the movie, right, so you don't
Speaker 4: want to give the movie away. But then you got
Speaker 4: so many questions because you've seen it correct, you know.
Speaker 4: So I'm saying all that to say we're gonna have
Speaker 4: to start waiting till after opening weekend. But you know,
Speaker 4: I know people want to come on because they want
Speaker 4: to promote the movie, they want to have a good
Speaker 4: opening weekend.
Speaker 5: But damn well, maybe we did have another conversation after Yeah,
Speaker 5: conversationally good.
Speaker 4: It starts La Keith Stanfield and Tianna Taylor. Who else
Speaker 4: is in there? Doctor Strange is in there? What's the
Speaker 4: what's the white man name? And played doctor Strange Benedict
Speaker 4: Benedict Cumberbatch. I think his name is you're asking the
Speaker 4: wrong person. If it wasn't Marvel. I get his name
Speaker 4: wrong on purpose, you know. I like to do that
Speaker 4: every now and then since they always confuse us. Oh boy, yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: so yeah.
Speaker 10: So if you see the trailer, there's a short trailer
Speaker 10: and a longer trailer. I'll go to the longer trailer
Speaker 10: and it'll give you a better vision about the movie
Speaker 10: because the short trailer kind of confuses you. I was
Speaker 10: speaking to my mother last night and she was saying that,
Speaker 10: you know, her, my dad, they go to movie night
Speaker 10: every Friday, so they were going to see it. My
Speaker 10: mom was like, I don't know what it's about. It
Speaker 10: looks confusing. And then when I explained it to her,
Speaker 10: she was like, Oh, that's.
Speaker 5: What I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Even if you see the trailer, you know you still
Speaker 4: should go see the movie because whatever you think the
Speaker 4: movie is about, trust me, it's not about correct and
Speaker 4: sleute to everybody who tuned in us last night on
Speaker 4: seeing that me and my good sister Angela Road. We
Speaker 4: was on an Abbey Phillips show on CNN last night
Speaker 4: talking about Reason Choice Media, which is a political network

Speaker 11: Yah.
Speaker 4: It's her Andrew Gilliman, Tiffany Cross. That's her podcast together
Speaker 4: called a Native Land Podcast. We was on CNN last
Speaker 4: night talking about that, amongst some other things.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 4: Yeh, it's lutha Abbey Phillips tooth for having us man.
Speaker 4: All right, well now we're here back on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 4: That's right, and let's get the show crack. And we
Speaker 4: got front page news coming up, a lot to discuss it.
Speaker 4: Don't go anywhere as to the breakfast club. Good morning morning.
Speaker 10: Everybody is dj n V, Charlamagne, the Gude.
Speaker 5: We are the breakfast Club. Good morning.
Speaker 10: Let's get in some front page news. Good morning, tis.
Speaker 6: Good morning shark that I was gonna say. So now
Speaker 6: I'm getting off like Charllet Magne, trying to get my
Speaker 6: groove back. Good morning, DJV and Charlemagne the God, he says.
Speaker 5: Good morning. Let's jump right into it. Let's start off
Speaker 5: with sports quickly.
Speaker 10: Now, Miami Heat coach she signs a record eight year,
Speaker 10: one hundred and twenty million dollar extension. That's the largest
Speaker 10: contract in NBA history in turn terms of total value
Speaker 10: for a coach. So congratulations to him and the Titans
Speaker 10: fire head coach Mike Ravel.
Speaker 5: That's his name, right, Mike Revell.
Speaker 10: Yeah, all right, we let's jump right into it. Let's
Speaker 10: talk about these journalists caught on a hot Mike.
Speaker 6: Journalists will caught on a hot hot Mike talking about
Speaker 6: Trump being assassinated like j f K.
Speaker 12: Let's take a listen.
Speaker 13: Who's driving without.
Speaker 1: I wasn't thinking about that.
Speaker 14: Yeah, if you up like JFK, it's like a JFF.
Speaker 5: Maybe something this way.
Speaker 1: They told JFK, you know what.
Speaker 5: You should do.
Speaker 7: It should take a convert of h.
Speaker 9: It's so nice out.
Speaker 5: Trust me.
Speaker 4: A lot of them feel like that about Trump, you know,
Speaker 4: elected officials, journalists, they want him out of here. But
Speaker 4: that's also the kind of rhetoric that definitely, uh, you know,
Speaker 4: makes his fan base rally behind him. But you know
Speaker 4: is crazy as that sounds, that's not as crazy as
Speaker 4: Trump's lawyers arguing that a president can order a Coeteam
Speaker 4: six to assassinate his political rifle if Congress is.
Speaker 5: Cool with it.
Speaker 4: You heard it, Trump Floyd and say that, like Trump
Speaker 4: Floyd isa that a president couldn't be prosecuted over an
Speaker 4: assassination of Congress, were okay with it?
Speaker 6: So right, you know, right right right, And that's another
Speaker 6: thing that we're talking about today. You know, as that
Speaker 6: hearing continues, Trump was in court, as you mentioned, he
Speaker 6: was facing the appeals court to talk about if he's
Speaker 6: immune to his activities regarding the January sixth, and so, Charlemagne,
Speaker 6: you're right on that.
Speaker 12: And then it being you.
Speaker 6: And I were talking about how Donald Trump is planning
Speaker 6: to deliver his own closing arguments, and this goes back
Speaker 6: to Charlemagne when you said this is going to be
Speaker 6: the best entertainment and going back to the mean o' brown.
Speaker 4: Were about to see things this year that we have
Speaker 4: never seen before in American politics. And it's like all
Speaker 4: of these new normals call for new strategy, man, but
Speaker 4: the only person that seemed to have new strategies is
Speaker 4: the person.
Speaker 5: They're trying to get the hell about it here.
Speaker 4: And that's Donald Trump and his strategy is destruction, destruction, destruction.
Speaker 10: The fact that he wants to speak after his layd
Speaker 10: to remarks and he wants.
Speaker 4: To do a closing argument after that. He gotta let
Speaker 4: everybody know if I go down, I'm taking all you
Speaker 4: bitches with me.
Speaker 15: Gee.
Speaker 4: Fact, let y'all don't know what this is, Nino Brown,
Speaker 4: Donald orangs, y'all know how it goes.
Speaker 5: What time this happened. I need to see this time,
Speaker 5: what time this is going?
Speaker 6: Now, well, we'll see, Well, we don't know the exact time,
Speaker 6: but we do know that it'll be today in court,
Speaker 6: so we'll bring it to you tomorrow.
Speaker 12: We'll bring that live whatever he says. Hopefully we can
Speaker 12: get some audio from it uh and air tomorrow.
Speaker 6: But I think we kind of predict, you know that
Speaker 6: he's definitely will be putting on the show for sure.
Speaker 12: And Charlamage, you're right.
Speaker 6: This is a year that we need more, you know,
Speaker 6: discussion around what's happening. So congratulations on that network again,
Speaker 6: and to the good sister Angela Rye and Siviny Craus
Speaker 6: and Andrew Gillium be able to you know, unpack these
Speaker 6: things in a larger form because it's absolutely necessary.

Speaker 7: man all black women that like white people man, are
Speaker 7: like to date white people.
Speaker 11: Man.
Speaker 7: You mean shaming people?
Speaker 5: Man, I ain't shame nobody. You must feel a shame.
Speaker 5: Do your thing?
Speaker 1: Can't go?
Speaker 5: Why you feel a shamed Charla Man?
Speaker 9: A couple of years ago? You know what I mean?
Speaker 7: I looked at a past interview that you had with
Speaker 7: academic he used to light them white girls.
Speaker 5: Man, that is not true. If anytime you ever you
Speaker 5: know what you said in.
Speaker 9: The interview, you said, yo, I like to make love
Speaker 9: to white girls so they you know, they don't sweat
Speaker 9: a lot in the summittar.
Speaker 4: Remember first of all, that was a that was a
Speaker 4: joke when in the actually that was that wasn't that
Speaker 4: was an actual joke. And I also used to say
Speaker 4: you don't sleep with no white women after labor Day?
Speaker 5: Remember that one?
Speaker 1: You remember that one?
Speaker 5: Since you want to remember how.
Speaker 8: To that one?
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course you don't. But let me ask you
Speaker 5: a question, Sean. This is what I don't understand.
Speaker 4: Why do people get upset when when individuals like myself say, yo,
Speaker 4: I don't have a problem with inter raise your relationships,
Speaker 4: but I like to see black men with black women.
Speaker 5: When you think about because what.
Speaker 7: Because you be coming off like you're trying to shame
Speaker 7: no black people or black women or black man, but
Speaker 7: they white people.
Speaker 11: You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Do you feel ashamed whenever you're out with your white
Speaker 4: woman and you hold in her hand, you hear doctor
Speaker 4: umar voice and you have white.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't have a white woman show me. I'm
Speaker 9: just so, why do you care?
Speaker 4: Because it's so funny and hypocritical to me to see
Speaker 4: you in.
Speaker 9: An old you know, if you were talking about you.
Speaker 9: I don't like to make love to black women in
Speaker 9: the summertime because they sweat too much.
Speaker 5: And I also said you don't make it.
Speaker 4: And I also said you don't sleep with white women
Speaker 4: after Labor Day is called a joke.
Speaker 5: Sean, Sean, you're in the laugh Sean.
Speaker 10: Date who you want to date. Don't let Charlamagne or
Speaker 10: doctor Umar affects you. You want to date if you
Speaker 10: want to, if you want to take a white woman
Speaker 10: to your picnic, go ahead and do it.
Speaker 23: Man.
Speaker 4: And by the way, I don't understand why people get
Speaker 4: upset when you hear a black man say he likes
Speaker 4: black love. When he says, hey, man, I like to
Speaker 4: see a black man with a black woman having a
Speaker 4: beautiful black family.
Speaker 5: That's what I have, you know what I mean? So
Speaker 5: whenever I hear y'all brothers be so upset about that,
Speaker 5: don't be ashamed. God didn't do what you do.
Speaker 4: Boo. Okay, But when doctor Umar says what he says,
Speaker 4: and I say what I say.
Speaker 5: Don't be embarrassed. Why are you embarrassed? For get it
Speaker 5: off your chest?
Speaker 10: Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If
Speaker 10: you need to vin, you can hit us up at
Speaker 10: any time. Now, when we come back, Michelle Obama says,
Speaker 10: don't make us a couple goals.
Speaker 5: We'll explain when we come back. So don't move. It's
Speaker 5: to breakfast Clugle Morning, the.
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club.
Speaker 11: Morning.
Speaker 10: Everybody is d J n V Charlamagne to God. We
Speaker 10: are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's
Speaker 10: talk a couple goals.
Speaker 1: Name or you gossip? This is the rumor report.
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess we're on the breakfast Club.
Speaker 5: This is where the tea.
Speaker 1: Spells right, yes, now.
Speaker 10: Michelle Obama did an interview with Jay Shetty on his
Speaker 10: podcast on Purpose with Jay Shetty, and they talked about
Speaker 10: being a couple goals.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 10: They've been married thirty one years, married in nineteen ninety two.
Speaker 10: They have two daughters, Sasha and Malaya. Of course, but
Speaker 10: before this interview, we also got a chance to sit
Speaker 10: down with Barack Obama.
Speaker 5: The Breakfast Club did and we asked them about we did,
Speaker 5: what are you back in the day? Yes, we just did.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 10: We got a chance to sit down and we actually
Speaker 10: asked him about, you know, being in a marriage and
Speaker 10: how it worked and how everything looked all peaches and
Speaker 10: cream on the outside.
Speaker 5: And this is what he said when we interviewed him.
Speaker 24: So, when you talk about your wife and you talk
Speaker 24: about how hard it was and how she didn't want
Speaker 24: you to run, how bad did he get in the household?
Speaker 24: Did he ever get to the point where he was like,
Speaker 24: you know what, maybe this is not going to work
Speaker 24: for us? Or is that never an option when it
Speaker 24: came to a relationship.
Speaker 16: I think, I think I think there were times where
Speaker 16: certainly she thought this wasn't gonna work. You know, she,
Speaker 16: you know, Michelle once told me something that I think
Speaker 16: summed it up pretty well. She said, I have organized
Speaker 16: my life not to have a lot of mess in
Speaker 16: my life, and politics by definition, brings mess into our household.
Speaker 16: And I understood that, and and the sacrifice she made
Speaker 16: is one that you know, I've had to work off,
Speaker 16: you know, the like I my debt has been.
Speaker 1: It's almost like a payday loan.
Speaker 10: You know, it just keeps on, well on the podcast
Speaker 10: with J Shetty Michelle She talks about.
Speaker 4: She responded to that interview not being a couple. She responded,
Speaker 4: I'm trying to tell a story. She responded that interview
Speaker 4: after she was doing she was Lawn j Sheeddy show.
Speaker 5: Responding to what Barack Obama said on a Breathfic Club,
Speaker 5: go first of all.
Speaker 22: Pick well, pick somebody you respect and like. Start there,
Speaker 22: and then remember that that's who they are, and then
Speaker 22: understand that with that, they are going to be and
Speaker 22: you are going to be deeply, deeply flawed, and you're
Speaker 22: going to make a whole lot of mistakes, right, But
Speaker 22: in the end, you can look that person in the
Speaker 22: eye and you go, You're still the person that I
Speaker 22: like and love and respect.
Speaker 12: And we can figure this out.
Speaker 22: So I share that because I don't want people looking
Speaker 22: at me and Barack like hashtag couples goals and not
Speaker 22: know that No, no, there are some broken things that
Speaker 22: happen even in the best of marriages.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean listen, none of those individuals see you
Speaker 4: see should be couple of goals because you don't even
Speaker 4: know these people, Like we only know what we see
Speaker 4: on TV, what we see on social media. We don't
Speaker 4: see them at home, and that's when you see the
Speaker 4: real relationship. And that's what real relationships are like, it's
Speaker 4: all a process. You might look at somebody and think
Speaker 4: couples goals until you see them at home and you're like, oh,
Speaker 4: I don't want that.
Speaker 5: No, I don't want that.
Speaker 10: But you could take part of different relationships that inspire you.
Speaker 10: Whether it's you know, something that they do, whether it's
Speaker 10: a date night every Friday, or how they discuss something
Speaker 10: in their relationship.
Speaker 5: You can take that. But like you said, you never
Speaker 5: know what's going on in somebody.
Speaker 4: I have no idea. You say a couple of goals.
Speaker 4: You have no idea what these couples are dealing with
Speaker 4: in their private time. You only know what they show you,
Speaker 4: you know, via via their public platform.
Speaker 5: That's right now. Michelle Obama also talks about the election
Speaker 5: and that she's very afraid. What keeps me up are
Speaker 5: the things that I know.
Speaker 22: The war in the region in too many regions.
Speaker 12: What is AI going to do for us? The environment?
Speaker 22: Are we moving at all fast enough? What are we
Speaker 22: doing about education? Are people going to vote? And why
Speaker 22: aren't people voting? Are we too stuck to our folds.
Speaker 22: I mean, those are the things that keep me up.
Speaker 22: And you wonder, where are people? Where are we in
Speaker 22: this you know, where are our hearts? What's going to
Speaker 22: happen in this next selection? I am terrified about what
Speaker 22: could possibly happen because our leaders matter, who we select,
Speaker 22: who speaks for us, who holds that bullied pulpit. You know,
Speaker 22: the fact that people think that government, you know, does
Speaker 22: it really even do anything? And I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 22: does government do everything for us? And we cannot take
Speaker 22: this democracy for granted.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they don't keep me up at night because I
Speaker 4: have embraced the inevitable, and the inevitable is mutually a
Speaker 4: sore destruction. Sorry to be the pessimistic one in the room.
Speaker 4: And she's not saying anything we haven't been saying. My
Speaker 4: only problem with a lot of these conversations is not
Speaker 4: the sense of urgency that it needs to be around
Speaker 4: a lot of these things. What you know, Yeah, the
Speaker 4: Obamas have already told us what's going to happen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because you saw that movie Leave the World Behind.
Speaker 4: If you've seen the movie Leave the World Behind, and
Speaker 4: you saw Obama, remember when the Boone Docks did a
Speaker 4: president Obama when they was in their bunker and they
Speaker 4: basically told us, Hey, we're gonna be fine. I don't
Speaker 4: know about y'all. We're gonna be We're gonna be fine,
Speaker 4: but I don't know about y'all. They already told us
Speaker 4: what it is.

Speaker 10: said my mother wasn't a prop that's right. She was
Speaker 10: a peaceful advocate before she met my father and was
Speaker 10: instrumental in him speaking out against the Vietnam War.
Speaker 5: Please understand, my mama was a force, so she wanted
Speaker 5: to be that period.
Speaker 4: She basically said, keep my mother's name out your f
Speaker 4: and mouth. Okay, I'm telling you, man, everywhere Jonathan Majors go,

Speaker 4: Now let's jump right into it.
Speaker 10: Let's talk about these New York City high school students
Speaker 10: forced to do remote learning.
Speaker 6: Yeah, remote learning, because two thousand migrants were sheltered in
Speaker 6: their high school.
Speaker 12: Let's listen to CBS for the report.
Speaker 26: Nearly two thousand migrants from a controversial city shelter at
Speaker 26: Brooklyn's Floyd Bennett Field over safety concerns and the incoming storm.
Speaker 26: CBS twos Inia Maldonado is live in Midwood to explain
Speaker 26: what's happening.
Speaker 27: Well, Christine, we are stationed here outside of migrants and
Speaker 27: what could be a danger zone. Nearly two thousand migrants
Speaker 27: are set to relocate Tuesday from the Floyd Bennett Field
Speaker 27: shelter to hear the James Madison High School in Midwood.
Speaker 27: Students were dismissed at their regular time Tuesday afternoon.
Speaker 12: One teacher we spoke with tell.
Speaker 27: CBS two staff received an email in the morning stating
Speaker 27: that migrants were set to arrive around and will be
Speaker 27: placed inside the school's gym.
Speaker 5: Just a storm coming and migrants will be coming to
Speaker 5: the site. Take importance, stuff home.
Speaker 27: New York City Emergency Management Commissioner Zach Iscol says the
Speaker 27: evacuation of about five hundred families will be staggered Tuesday
Speaker 27: as migrants return to Floyd Bennett Field throughout the evening.
Speaker 4: We do not anticipate significant impacts of the tents tonight,
Speaker 4: but the safety of the people in our care as
Speaker 4: a paramount importance and we're not going to take risks now.
Speaker 6: New York City Mayor Eric Adams said he's been asking
Speaker 6: for help since last year, and he's calling for a
Speaker 6: federal declaration of emergency.
Speaker 12: Take a listen to that.
Speaker 28: New York City Mayor Eric Adams says he has not
Speaker 28: gotten any FaceTime with President Joe Biden about the migrant
Speaker 28: crisis since early last year. Now, Adams and other sanctuary
Speaker 28: city mayors are forming a coalition pleading for financial and
Speaker 28: legislative assistants.
Speaker 19: Has temperatures drop in New York City, Chicago, denbra and
Speaker 19: other impacted cities. We are calling for the federal declaration
Speaker 19: of emergency financial support and a national resentiment strategy.
Speaker 28: Today, the Democratic mayors of New York, Chicago, and Denver
Speaker 28: held a virtual meeting to discuss how they're trying to
Speaker 28: handle the influx of thousands of migrants as record numbers
Speaker 28: cross the southern border and head for their cities.
Speaker 23: Now.
Speaker 6: Adam said that over one hundred and sixty thousand migrants
Speaker 6: have surgeon to the sanctuary city since the middle of
Speaker 6: twenty twenty two, some of whom who have been bussed
Speaker 6: directly from Texas. Let's take a listen real quick to
Speaker 6: what Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson had to say.
Speaker 29: As busses continue to arrive in the city of Chicago
Speaker 29: and all over the country. The type of chaos that
Speaker 29: has been administered has left many of our local economies
Speaker 29: under a tremendous amount of duress.
Speaker 28: Governor Greg Abbots's office telling us in part, his state
Speaker 28: will continue busing migrants to sanctuary cities until quote President
Speaker 28: Biden steps up and does his job to.
Speaker 12: Secure the border.
Speaker 4: So what they do, They're sending all high school kids
Speaker 4: to another school. Let me get that straat no remote learning.
Speaker 4: They gotta do it from the crib, but they got
Speaker 4: to do it from home. They gotta do it from home.
Speaker 23: Now.
Speaker 4: See, when I hear stories like that, it makes you
Speaker 4: say build the wall. When I hear stories like that,
Speaker 4: it makes you say America first. That's why that rhetoric
Speaker 4: that somebody like a Trump's spews or other Republican spews,
Speaker 4: that's why it's effective. Because why do these kids have
Speaker 4: to be inconvenience because of the migrants the middle of
Speaker 4: the school year. You just gonna tell the kids stay home, no,
Speaker 4: find someplace else for the migrants.
Speaker 1: How was that? Okay?
Speaker 10: I was gonna say that too. I was like, out
Speaker 10: of every place we could put the migrants, it has
Speaker 10: to be in schools. There's not any place else we
Speaker 10: could put them, and no disrespect. But they find money
Speaker 10: for everything else. We can't find money for motels, hotels
Speaker 10: to rent, gyms, gymnasiums that Jacob Javidson and all these
Speaker 10: big buildings.
Speaker 4: They find money for everything else. But you're gonna take.
Speaker 5: These kids out of school and no disrespect.
Speaker 10: I think any parent knows that when you have to
Speaker 10: do remote learning, kids don't really focus on learning.
Speaker 5: And yo What if I can't stay home with my child?
Speaker 4: What if I can't afford a babysitter, What if I
Speaker 4: can't if I don't have a relative that can stay
Speaker 4: with my child?
Speaker 5: How are you just disrupting me in my life for
Speaker 5: these migrants? How is that okay?
Speaker 4: And listen, I'm all for assisting any human that needs assistance,
Speaker 4: but not at the sake of disrupting my kids learning
Speaker 4: and disrupting my life. And that's my tax payer dollars
Speaker 4: that pay for the school. I want my kids in
Speaker 4: that school, not the migrants. I don't know how that's okay?
Speaker 12: Yah, yeah, and heavy emphasis on.
Speaker 6: They found this out day of you know, so this wasn't,
Speaker 6: you know, obviously because of the weather, you know, all
Speaker 6: of a sudden, but this was like a day of, hey, guys,
Speaker 6: go go learn remote.
Speaker 5: So what about what if I got to go to work.
Speaker 5: I'm already getting my ass kicked.
Speaker 4: Barey can pay my bills, Bailly can keep inflation is high,
Speaker 4: I have to be at work. What if I can't
Speaker 4: go to work because now I got to have my
Speaker 4: child at home to learn because y'all putting some migrants
Speaker 4: into school. How do you how does any elected official
Speaker 4: or anybody think that's okay. Like how and you wonder
Speaker 4: why the rhetoric of build the wall in America first
Speaker 4: works for a lot of people.
Speaker 5: It's because of stuff like this.
Speaker 10: And and the thing is, like, like they said, Biden
Speaker 10: has to do something. We've been talking about this. This
Speaker 10: hasn't been the first week we discussed this. This hasn't
Speaker 10: been the first month. We've been talking about this for months.
Speaker 10: We've been seeing this issue in this problem and there's
Speaker 10: no resolution.
Speaker 4: Eric, you can't think that's okay. Eric, there's nobody that
Speaker 4: should be co signing on this show. You're going to
Speaker 4: let the kids stay at home and do remote learning
Speaker 4: to put two thousand migrants into a high school.
Speaker 6: Well, and when you make the point you're saying, you
Speaker 6: know you've been talking about this. I mean that's what
Speaker 6: Governor Abbott's you know his response is in Texas say,
Speaker 6: and the Texas hasn't been talking about this forever.
Speaker 12: You know, Republicans have been talking about this for episode.
Speaker 6: Now that the Democrat mayors in Chicago in New York
Speaker 6: now have to deal with the problem, what they say
Speaker 6: stand on business a Governor Advien said, it's going to
Speaker 6: continue to keep sending migrants to New York and Chicago
Speaker 6: until they.
Speaker 4: Figure it out.
Speaker 6: Now that it has to be a problem they have
Speaker 6: to deal with. Now they're saying, this is what Texas
Speaker 6: has always been talking about. So you know, again, you know,
Speaker 6: I know some folks gonna say that's racist, and you know,
Speaker 6: folks are not being sympathetic. But what they're trying to
Speaker 6: do is forced the conversation to deal with immigration. And
Speaker 6: charlottne you're right because it is such a hot topic
Speaker 6: right now. We're talking about this yesterday. That's what Trump
Speaker 6: keeps talking about over and over and over immigration and
Speaker 6: so when you see this happens, you know, see this
Speaker 6: type of stuff happening, it plays right into his point.
Speaker 12: Whether you agree with Trump.
Speaker 6: Or not, that's right.
Speaker 4: And we always think about sympathy when it comes to
Speaker 4: the migrants. And like I said, you know, I'm all
Speaker 4: for assisting any human that needs assistance, but why not
Speaker 4: have sympathy for the parents that are now inconvenience because
Speaker 4: of this situation. Their kids have to stay home high
Speaker 4: school or not. They have to stay home and do
Speaker 4: remote learning while their school is being you know, while
Speaker 4: migrants are sheltering in their school. I don't know how
Speaker 4: anybody can think that's okay. And what about the teachers.
Speaker 4: What do the teachers do?
Speaker 12: I guess go home.
Speaker 5: They teach from their crib, like you have truck balls
Speaker 5: in their crib. And that's not what I want my
Speaker 5: tax pion dollars going to again.
Speaker 12: And they have to figure this out all of us sudden.
Speaker 12: So they're figuring it out.
Speaker 6: It's kind of as you go, like literally, this just
Speaker 6: happened yesterday, so today it's like, hey, just figure it
Speaker 6: out against loging now because you know, obviously Corona is
Speaker 6: not too far, you know, so they I'm sure they
Speaker 6: had some strategies in place since they had to do it,
Speaker 6: you know, with the pandemic. But the point is you
Speaker 6: just wake up and say, hey, tomorrow you're not going
Speaker 6: to school. Youre gonna learn from home.
Speaker 12: It's it's an issue. But Mayor Adams has been asking
Speaker 12: for help.
Speaker 6: The clip said that he's been begging Joe Biden help
Speaker 6: and he can't get his ear on this at all.
Speaker 6: He's been ignored, according to Mayor Adams.
Speaker 4: Well, Eric Adams was also one of those people that
Speaker 4: was very welcoming. He was saying, this is a sanctuary city,
Speaker 4: and you know he was welcoming the migrants here, and
Speaker 4: well you got what you asked for, Mayor.
Speaker 12: Yeah, different when they're welcome. Actually, it's taking up to
Speaker 12: that offer taken up.
Speaker 10: Now, what would happen if if they just dropped the
Speaker 10: migrants just in front of the White House, just started
Speaker 10: dropping him in front of the White House and loads.
Speaker 1: They've done that.
Speaker 4: They did, they did that at the at the vice,
Speaker 4: but they already seem like they stopped. They just it
Speaker 4: was just like one bustload or two bustloads this matter.
Speaker 10: If they just get bustloads every day, then then he
Speaker 10: would really have to do something because it would be
Speaker 10: on his loan literally, right.
Speaker 12: Well, yeah, but I think well that's true.
Speaker 6: But I think the strategy of making these mayors have
Speaker 6: to talk about it in Chicago in New York and
Speaker 6: them having to really you know, push the issue, I
Speaker 6: think that's also very strategic as well, you know, because
Speaker 6: now you're getting other mayors and other elected officials get
Speaker 6: involved to.
Speaker 12: Put that pressure. What they're basically trying to do just
Speaker 12: call it for what it is.
Speaker 6: They're basically, you know, wanting Democrat mayors to have to
Speaker 6: admit that there is a problem with immigration, and this
Speaker 6: is a strategy. Whether people like it or not, it's
Speaker 6: actually effective because it's making them talk about it and
Speaker 6: you know, and have to deal with it face on,
Speaker 6: which is probably a little bit more strategic than.
Speaker 12: Just at the White House.
Speaker 4: You should be ashamed of ourselves as a country, you know,
Speaker 4: New York City should be ashamed of itself that they're displacing.
Speaker 4: You know, we're not displacing, but making a bunch of
Speaker 4: high school kids do remote learning because they want to
Speaker 4: show up to two thousand migrants. Once again, you know,
Speaker 4: I'm all for assisting people that need assistance, but you know,
Speaker 4: not at the disruption. Not not at the sake of
Speaker 4: disrupting my kids learning. And once again, that's my tax,
Speaker 4: fair dollars that pay for that school.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 5: What if I'm a parent that don't want that, Like,
Speaker 5: it's just insane to me. All right, Well that is
Speaker 5: front page News. Thank you, tesz Hi.
Speaker 12: Absolutely all right.

Speaker 10: The Book of Clarence. And we're gonna talk to them
Speaker 10: about all that when we come back, So don't movie.

Speaker 1: I'm good, King, I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. It's
Speaker 1: about time, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: Absolutely happy to have you.
Speaker 9: Man.
Speaker 4: You got a new movie y'all called The Book of Clars.
Speaker 4: But before we get the Book of Clars, we just
Speaker 4: got to talk about you, you know, James Samuel. You
Speaker 4: know are I'm sure you have seen The Heartiday Faul.
Speaker 4: That was your first film, right, yeah, that's the first,
Speaker 4: the debut film. Okay, yeah, give us a little backstory.
Speaker 4: What's the James Samuel origin? Man, you know how superheroes
Speaker 4: are we were born superheros, you know, people like us.
Speaker 1: We didn't fall into know pit, we were born it.
Speaker 1: But I was just a guy. There was always instruments
Speaker 1: in the house. I always had cameras, and I was
Speaker 1: always doing two things right. So it's not really what
Speaker 1: made me like fall into film from music or fall
Speaker 1: into music from film. It's really what made me not
Speaker 1: stop being me. The older you get, the more I
Speaker 1: always say, you're taught to level down right as a kid,
Speaker 1: disguised the limit as an elder. Don't count your chickens
Speaker 1: before they hatch. So you just have to kind of
Speaker 1: work out a way to hold onto yourself, never to
Speaker 1: never grow up, and continue doing the things that just
Speaker 1: make you you. So I continue doing music to the
Speaker 1: point where I was working with j Electronica and toy
Speaker 1: A Muss and all of these people, and I continue
Speaker 1: doing film, and I was just doing both of them myself,
Speaker 1: funding whatever I can. Then I made a short film
Speaker 1: in twenty twelve, cause They Die by Dawn. It was
Speaker 1: a Western. It was like a proof of concept for
Speaker 1: The Harder, starring Erica Baduo, Rosario Dawson, gen Carlo Esposito,
Speaker 1: Michael K. Williams, Harry Lennox, Nate Parker based. I was
Speaker 1: just going to people's house and I can't. I put
Speaker 1: them in it, and I did all the music for it.
Speaker 1: Then me and jay Z did the music for The
Speaker 1: Great Gatsby, and from there I just pivoted into into
Speaker 1: The Harder Day Four. You know, The Hard Day four
Speaker 1: took like fifteen years to make right and everyone telling
Speaker 1: you it's never gonna happen. It's too big. You can't
Speaker 1: do that for your first movie. Your first movie should
Speaker 1: be like one million or two million. There was a
Speaker 1: guy called Andrea Evolino. He said to me, James, do
Speaker 1: you know this? This movie is too it's too big.
Speaker 1: Take five million. Do something small, and if that's successful,
Speaker 1: I give you more. And that's you know when I
Speaker 1: Hope says, I drove by the fork in the road
Speaker 1: and went straight. I looked at this guy. Should I
Speaker 1: take that five mil? Nah?
Speaker 15: Man?
Speaker 1: My first movie is The Harder Day Four. I have
Speaker 1: to tell people that one in four cowboys was black.
Speaker 1: The name cowboy came from us. They call us cowboys.
Speaker 1: White people were called cow hands. I just had a
Speaker 1: mission with that movie, and I just I never took
Speaker 1: it and I went straight and I made the holiday
Speaker 1: fall literally a couple of years. A couple of years later,
Speaker 1: I made a holiday fall for nineteen million dollar budget,
Speaker 1: write a ninety million dollar budget.
Speaker 10: How did you know so many people open their arms
Speaker 10: to you because you mentioned Ja electronicer, Michael K. Williams,
Speaker 10: Erica baddu jay Z. How did so many people open
Speaker 10: up their arms You'd be like, come on, brother, let's
Speaker 10: do this together.
Speaker 1: Or how was that? You know before Mike Tyson beat
Speaker 1: the brakes.
Speaker 5: Off, which one he'd beat the break a lot of people.
Speaker 1: Frank Bruno in England, I mean that almost like we
Speaker 1: still wanted to Tyson to win, though, because you know
Speaker 1: it's Tyson, he said, I laugh, forgive.
Speaker 5: Me for being so vain.
Speaker 1: I'm the best at what I do, Envy. I laugh,
Speaker 1: forgive me for being so vaine and the best of
Speaker 1: what I do. I'm literally a once in a lifetime
Speaker 1: comment like no one does. I compose the score. I
Speaker 1: write and produce every single song on the soundtrack unless
Speaker 1: someone's rapping. I write and produce every single song on
Speaker 1: the soundtrack. And also I believe that great artists want
Speaker 1: to make great art So when I sit in front
Speaker 1: of you, and I tell you, look, we have never
Speaker 1: had had a movie like this before ever, like the
Speaker 1: Book of Clarence in one hundred and thirty six years
Speaker 1: of the movie image two black people who have never
Speaker 1: been on screen and gone this, Jesus, We've never had
Speaker 1: a movie like that before. So when I sit in
Speaker 1: front of you and I explain to you my intention
Speaker 1: and the reason why I want to make what I
Speaker 1: make and I have to make what I make, I'm
Speaker 1: kind of fortunate that I'm able to explain it and
Speaker 1: that the person I'm talking to is able to hold
Speaker 1: onto it, and then we just go forward and create.
Speaker 10: History, not the Book of Clarence. This comes out this
Speaker 10: week the twelve. Yeah, Now with this movie, did you
Speaker 10: have any reservations? Because when you talk about religious movies
Speaker 10: or biblical times or people are so animated, so have
Speaker 10: so many questions and will complain to I don't even.
Speaker 5: Know what's up, especially with this movie. Blastphem me blasphemy.
Speaker 1: The teaser a sixty second teaser. We drop a sixty
Speaker 1: second teaser and everyone says blast for me. Envy Matthew
Speaker 1: twenty four to five. Jesus' exact words are many shall
Speaker 1: come in my name saying I am the Christ, and
Speaker 1: they shall deceive many. The Bible itself speaks of Simon
Speaker 1: and sorcerer who was trying to pay his way into
Speaker 1: the apostles. The Bible itself speaks of Simon the Sorcerer.
Speaker 1: In Jesus' lifetime, and it's thirty three years of being
Speaker 1: on the planet, there was two to three hundred people
Speaker 1: coming and saying that they're the Messiah. You only have
Speaker 1: to do a Google check.
Speaker 8: Now.
Speaker 1: I knew people would be saying that when they look
Speaker 1: at the teaser. We released the longer trailer and it
Speaker 1: was less right. But now when you say blasphemy, you
Speaker 1: have to stand on it. I want to know why
Speaker 1: you're saying blasphemy. Is it because you're seeing people of color?
Speaker 1: And if I'm speaking to a person of color, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna ask a deep question when you look at the
Speaker 1: trailer for because you haven't seen a movie, When you
Speaker 1: look at the trailer for the Book of Clarence and
Speaker 1: you're yelling blasphemy, One, do you actually read the book
Speaker 1: you profess to know so much about. Two? And listen
Speaker 1: to all black people that yelling yelling blasphemy? Are you
Speaker 1: saying blasphemy because you see yourself in that play some time?
Speaker 1: Because I'm showing people in that place and time as
Speaker 1: the same color as you. We are so trained to
Speaker 1: dismiss anything we see as as either blasphemy or in
Speaker 1: this day and ages, the Illuminati. I always tell people, Charlotte,
Speaker 1: it's a crazy thing, right. You never hear two white
Speaker 1: people go Spilberg and George Lucas are the Illuminati? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know the black people go jay z Rihanna and
Speaker 1: really like, really, ill is that what we're doing? This
Speaker 1: soon to be accomplished as soon as we accomplished something.
Speaker 1: So for me, I never had any reservations at all.
Speaker 1: I don't create art with in fear. I have had
Speaker 1: any reservations at all. And the fact that people yell
Speaker 1: and blaste me is exactly why to tell this story,
Speaker 1: Clanits is about an every man. It's about you and
Speaker 1: I who believes he can do anything. But in this
Speaker 1: in this belief, he finds himself, you know, in trouble
Speaker 1: with a village terror, and he ends upon a rod
Speaker 1: of self discovery and ultimately redemption and faith. It's a
Speaker 1: beautiful It's a beautiful story.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't think it downplays faith at all. I think
Speaker 4: it examines the motivation behind our faith.
Speaker 1: Thank you, brother, thank you. That's exactly exactly what it does.
Speaker 1: Like the Book of Clients is a classic.
Speaker 4: It's a fantastic movie, and it's gonna be a discussion piece,
Speaker 4: regardless what you just said about him in the film,
Speaker 4: you know, And maybe this is just me being white.
Speaker 4: Your face looked like that. He doesn't look like you
Speaker 4: want to tell you this morning. But maybe I'm just
Speaker 4: being a little fake.
Speaker 1: Deep.
Speaker 4: What I took from it was everybody's God. We should
Speaker 4: recognize everybody is God. But the most important thing is
Speaker 4: recognizing God in yourself.
Speaker 1: Recognizing God in yourself. Charlemagne, like all of us, have
Speaker 1: that walking water moment. Even though Jesus is in the film,
Speaker 1: right and he's clear, and he's in the filming and
Speaker 1: I may I go through.
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's as clear as you thought
Speaker 5: it was, because me and it was arguing this morning
Speaker 5: about my wife got it.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, see yeah, so it was super clear.
Speaker 1: But Charlemagne's wife got it. Here's the thing, and you
Speaker 1: know Edvy loves an argument, loves debate, so there is
Speaker 1: a God in yourself and that's super import man. Like
Speaker 1: when we see each other's peace to the God, it's
Speaker 1: peace to the God. Like there's a God in yourself,
Speaker 1: and that's like the most important thing. Because not everyone
Speaker 1: that's gonna watch this film is a Christian. Not everyone's
Speaker 1: gonna watch it film. You know, like when people people
Speaker 1: champion there their religions, but I find everyone to be
Speaker 1: a disbeliever of some sort. If I'm speaking to a Christian, Okay,
Speaker 1: so you disbelieve in all the other religions on the planet,
Speaker 1: you just believe in yours, right, whatever your belief is,
Speaker 1: even if you have no faith, God is inside you,
Speaker 1: and I want people to take take that away from
Speaker 1: this this movie. So what you took away from it
Speaker 1: for me is a beautiful is a beautiful thing? Is
Speaker 1: job well done? Because you know it's the first movie
Speaker 1: of its kind in one hundred and thirty six years
Speaker 1: of the moving image, Right, it's a it's a really
Speaker 1: beautiful thing. And you know me, Charlemagne, like I'm always
Speaker 1: excited about what I do. Filmmakers are almost like it's
Speaker 1: politically incorrect to say my movie is wicked. Like Christopher Nolan.
Speaker 1: You watch a Christ Nolan interview, you're sleep by the
Speaker 1: end of it. He wants amazing, but but the interviews
Speaker 1: up whereas I'm not that guy. The Book of Clarence
Speaker 1: is an amazing film. We've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 1: It's easy to critique something when it's done, but watch
Speaker 1: it first and celebrate cinema.
Speaker 4: We got more with James Samuel when we come back,
Speaker 4: don't move.
Speaker 5: It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning, owning everybody.
Speaker 10: It's DJ NV Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 10: We're still kicking it with James Samuels, the director and
Speaker 10: writer for Book of Clarence, which comes out this week.
Speaker 5: I mean, I know people will have.
Speaker 10: Reservations at first because it is a biblical movie. I
Speaker 10: mean even myself. I when I first and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 10: here we go.
Speaker 1: I didn't.
Speaker 10: I wasn't excited until I've seen it. And when I
Speaker 10: seen it, I was super duper excited. I was kind
Speaker 10: of mad that I was seeing it on my phone
Speaker 10: and laptop at first. So I want to see it
Speaker 10: this Friday when it comes to the theaters. La Keith
Speaker 10: Stanfield perfect acting for the politics like it was to
Speaker 10: what made you find him and what made you say
Speaker 10: he's the perfect person. He played that I don't I
Speaker 10: don't think there's anybody that could have played it better.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Envy. Here's what happened, right, I wrote Clarence,
Speaker 1: I had no idea I can cost it, and that
Speaker 1: was costing for the Holtiday four and the Keith came
Speaker 1: on the phone and I was in Mexico and during
Speaker 1: the call, he got a call from his cousin and
Speaker 1: he got worried, taken aback. So you know he's speaking
Speaker 1: to a director and he's in a particular mode. Then
Speaker 1: he's like, Yo, it's my cousin. Man, I got I gotta,
Speaker 1: I gotta go take this call. Somebody probably got shot
Speaker 1: in the herd. He ran through like a soliloquy of
Speaker 1: happenings things, put down the phone when he phone. I
Speaker 1: called my sister, Tanya. I found Clarence. It's like what
Speaker 1: I found Clarence, Tanya. This guy has got every single
Speaker 1: emotion that Clarence has. Because Clarence, we don't want to
Speaker 1: talk about the ending, but Clarence goes to every single
Speaker 1: emotion that you possibly can go through in that environment,
Speaker 1: and he just possesses everything. Then he came to set
Speaker 1: to play Cherokee Bill in the Holtiday four.
Speaker 5: I was like, this is it.
Speaker 1: It's him. So on the last day when we rapped
Speaker 1: hugged him, was like, yo, yo, don't go too farther
Speaker 1: coming back. There's something else. And as soon as we
Speaker 1: finished with a Holiday four, I went straight back. I
Speaker 1: went straight into the clarance. If he didn't want to
Speaker 1: do the film, I would have shot something else. Wow,
Speaker 1: it was him. It was him, And I think I'm
Speaker 1: really dope at finding actors and and you know, like
Speaker 1: working with people at that like Dion Cole in The
Speaker 1: Hearder they fought gave the grill and people have never
Speaker 1: seen Deon Cole and they said, you cast the old
Speaker 1: spice guy. I'm from London, I've never seen advert. I
Speaker 1: just knowed this guy is perfect for this role. And
Speaker 1: the Keith Man, he's just killed it. Man, he kills it,
Speaker 1: he kills It's a real tor force of a performance.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: You know Clarence said that at one point in the movie,
Speaker 4: knowledge is stronger than belief, and it made me want
Speaker 4: to cut that distinction of knowledge and belief.
Speaker 5: Did that influence his pursuit of the truth. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, you know, the first time he says it, he
Speaker 1: says it to the apostles, because you know how we
Speaker 1: are Charlemagne, that we grew up and our friends are
Speaker 1: religious at first, and before we had adopted any faith,
Speaker 1: whether it's Christianity, Muslim five percent, whatever we adopt. At first,
Speaker 1: we're looking at our friends, were questioning them, like someone
Speaker 1: will be telling me don't drink alcohol while they're smoking
Speaker 1: a cigarette. Man, you believe in God. If you knew
Speaker 1: there was a God, you would not don't be telling
Speaker 1: me that cigarettes aren't har am if you knew that
Speaker 1: was good. Like knowledge is stronger than them. Belief is
Speaker 1: Clarence's whole ethos. And you know that's a multif that
Speaker 1: I've thought throughout my life. I remember again Mike Tyson
Speaker 1: fighting Michael Spinks in that ninety one second massacre. The
Speaker 1: crazy thing wasn't the massacre in ninety one seconds. It
Speaker 1: was what Tyson done when when he walked back to
Speaker 1: his corner, he just turns around, puts up his hands
Speaker 1: like he knew he was gonna win. Michael Spinks believed
Speaker 1: he could win, Like knowledge is stronger than than belief.
Speaker 1: What happens is we have we embark on faith, right,
Speaker 1: and we have belief in something, and then something happens
Speaker 1: in our lives and it turns that belief into knowledge,
Speaker 1: Like now I know God exists because you can't explain
Speaker 1: this stuff that happened. You can't explain the majesty of
Speaker 1: what we've just been through. You can't explain how I
Speaker 1: just hold three shots close range. You can't explain how
Speaker 1: we how I got out of this. I know God exists. Right,
Speaker 1: So it goes from from from knowledge to belief. And
Speaker 1: the beautiful thing is that's our journey with Clarence. Right,
Speaker 1: he doesn't have any belief, and we watch him acquired
Speaker 1: the knowledge. Right, we've watched him Ghana ghanea faith. I
Speaker 1: think it's a really important film.
Speaker 4: So it makes me wonder, right when you talk about Clarence,
Speaker 4: Clarence saw Jesus early on in the movie, and Clarence said.
Speaker 1: I want that.
Speaker 5: Now, Yeah, But what was that was? Did that the
Speaker 5: attention was? Did that the knowledge of self? The truth?
Speaker 23: Like?
Speaker 1: What was the clout? Clarence sees Jesus coming up with
Speaker 1: the twelve apostles protective people in the street climbering around him. This,
Speaker 1: and Clarence saw all the materialistic stuff which a lot
Speaker 1: of these preachers around today see a lot of preachers
Speaker 1: today see the Bible as opportunity, a mass, humongous amounts
Speaker 1: of wealth. So Clarence is in is in the town
Speaker 1: square with his best friend Elijah. He's walking. He sees
Speaker 1: Jesus coming in and everyone climbing around him, and he's like,
Speaker 1: look and they protected. No one messes with them, no
Speaker 1: one messes with him. And just like, I want to
Speaker 1: be like that in ten years. I want that kind
Speaker 1: of presence, Like I want that now right now. So
Speaker 1: at first he wanted all of the wrong things, all
Speaker 1: of the wrong things, and he ventures down this.
Speaker 5: Road and figure it out. And that's when it becomes
Speaker 5: like dmxan belly to me, remember.
Speaker 25: Exactly exactly he's told to kill, to kill, but on
Speaker 25: that journey of self discovery and redemption, you know, and
Speaker 25: that happens to all of us.
Speaker 1: We can't tell the story like this, and we be
Speaker 1: so dare I say ignorant as to holler blasphemy as
Speaker 1: soon as you see a tale? What should we just
Speaker 1: tell the stories of Jesus Jesus life. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like we have to we have to firstly,
Speaker 1: I believe that we belong in those days, right, but
Speaker 1: we also have to be able to to look at
Speaker 1: the three hundred and sixty degree element of Okay, here's
Speaker 1: here's Jesus. But what was all of the things around it,
Speaker 1: especially in that day in time? Like why is it?
Speaker 5: Why is it?
Speaker 1: We've never seen ourselves in that day in time ever
Speaker 1: in the history of the moving image.
Speaker 5: Look like he shouldn't win an Oscar for this, or
Speaker 5: at least be nominated.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Charlemagne.
Speaker 5: He don't just play Clarence, he plays his brother.
Speaker 1: And Thomas in the Bible was a twin. Here's the
Speaker 1: thing that is, because you know, it's interesting, like people
Speaker 1: don't read the Bible that much. They speak about Thomas
Speaker 1: was a twin. His name Didimus meant twin, so they
Speaker 1: were calling him twin all the time, but no one
Speaker 1: ever speaks about whether he had a twin brother or
Speaker 1: the Bible doesn't speak aout whether we have a twin
Speaker 1: brother or twin sister. Right, He's just just a twin,
Speaker 1: so we didn't even we know him as doubting Thomas.
Speaker 1: We didn't even know he was a twin. He's actually
Speaker 1: a twin. So the so the Book of Clarence is
Speaker 1: like my depiction of Thomas's twin brother.
Speaker 4: Did he did you have him played Thomas to highlight
Speaker 4: the polarities within ourselves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, my brother, exactly right, and the conflicts that we
Speaker 1: have within ourselves. And also you know, just being growing
Speaker 1: up the way we all grew up, right, Like we
Speaker 1: weren't with Charlemagne in South Carolina. We were with you
Speaker 1: and watching you for years, right, so we all grew
Speaker 1: up the same and we have these internal conflicts and
Speaker 1: internal struggles all the time between doing right and doing
Speaker 1: good and also what is actually right and what is
Speaker 1: what should I stand and fight or shall I walk
Speaker 1: away from this one? So so Thomas shows that polarity.
Speaker 1: But I'm glad you said, like Lakeith what you said
Speaker 1: about Lakeith's performance, because it's amazing.
Speaker 5: It was incredible always, hands down.
Speaker 10: It made me believe every aspect of every character he played,
Speaker 10: whether it was his brother, whether it was him at
Speaker 10: the club, or whether it was him whether he was
Speaker 10: facing whether it's trials and tribulations, the love scene. It
Speaker 10: made me believe to the point where you ever see
Speaker 10: a movie, but like, there's no other person that could
Speaker 10: have played that part.
Speaker 5: That's what I felt like with that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know me only keep it had all
Speaker 4: little petty issues back and forth in this game, right,
Speaker 4: But it's just like he is serious enough but also
Speaker 4: comedic enough to pull off what you did absolutely in
Speaker 4: this film.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense exactly, Like he has all of
Speaker 1: the all of the Oh I'm looking at looking more
Speaker 1: smooth and let me just touch my face. It was
Speaker 1: looking too smooth over there. I don't even look off camera.
Speaker 1: Everybody said, I know you don't have no lights, dudes.
Speaker 5: I said, I said, no Lightskin Brothers, sell me goes.
Speaker 1: That's why I loved it.
Speaker 5: There was skin brother and I like, damn no lights.
Speaker 1: Skin Brothers and Biblical times they came later.
Speaker 10: We got more with James Samuel, the writer and director
Speaker 10: of Books of Clarence and Don't Move.
Speaker 5: It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 10: Everybody's envying Charlamagne the god we are. The Breakfast Club
Speaker 10: is still kicking it with James Samuel. He's the writer
Speaker 10: and director of the new film Book of Clarence Starr
Speaker 10: and Leakeith Stanfield Charlamage.
Speaker 4: My wife had a question, She was like, what was
Speaker 4: the logic behind having Mary Magdalene at the Last Supper
Speaker 4: but then covering her up?
Speaker 1: But she was, you know, like, I just think have
Speaker 1: a last Supper that depicted Mary Magdalene because Mary Magdalene
Speaker 1: was was around Jesus lot and Jesus was the one
Speaker 1: person that knew. He was the only person that knew
Speaker 1: that that was the last Supper, So I just thought, well,
Speaker 1: he may have Mary then. Also, I think that last
Speaker 1: Supper scene for me is really important because usually when
Speaker 1: they showed Judas, they never ever give gradients to Judas.
Speaker 1: Judas is just known as a man that betrayed Jesus.
Speaker 1: But Judas was chosen to be one of the apostles.
Speaker 1: The fact that Judas was there, Judas was probably a
Speaker 1: good guy that done one bad thing. It's not like
Speaker 1: he had a history of evil, right, So I wanted
Speaker 1: to I wanted to show his possible reasons.
Speaker 4: For doing at because I always say you shouldn't judge
Speaker 4: people based off what they do when they're in survival
Speaker 4: mode exactly.
Speaker 5: But what about would you do something and this is Judas,
Speaker 5: it's Judas.
Speaker 1: Wow, So I wanted to show like why he was
Speaker 1: doing it. He says in the film we're revolutionaries, we're
Speaker 1: not pacifists. Why we fight and just show its frustrations
Speaker 1: played excellently by Michael Ward from to Boy. And also
Speaker 1: you know, just to have these English actors with these
Speaker 1: American actors and it's just an amazing thing.
Speaker 5: Man, Where did you shoot that?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 5: Because when I watch movies now, I watch it from
Speaker 5: a different lens.
Speaker 11: Right.
Speaker 10: I watch it for the movie lens, but I also
Speaker 10: watch everything around it, right, and I'm looking at how
Speaker 10: real it looks and the time it must take and
Speaker 10: set directid where did.
Speaker 1: You shoot that? I shot him the material in Italy.
Speaker 1: It's like the fourth oldest inhabited city in the world. Right,
Speaker 1: It's thousands of years old. The caves are still live
Speaker 1: from when they were living in caves, and you could
Speaker 1: do it aerial three sixty and still be an ancient Jerusalem.
Speaker 1: Mel Gibson shot Passion of the Christ there and No
Speaker 1: Time to Die the last James Bond movie, The opening
Speaker 1: was shot there. But the city's so amazing. I just
Speaker 1: knew that if I have black people descend on this town,
Speaker 1: it's just gonna look like something we've never seen before.
Speaker 5: I would say, based on just subject matter.
Speaker 4: Because you did mention passionate the Christ, how would you
Speaker 4: say the Book of Clarence it differs from the passion
Speaker 4: of the Crist.
Speaker 1: Well, the passion of Christ is the story of Jesus
Speaker 1: right of his last days. The Book of Clarence isn't
Speaker 1: the story of Jesus at all.
Speaker 11: Is it not?
Speaker 5: Though that's what we wonder, is it not?
Speaker 1: Is I like that you say it because you've seen it, right,
Speaker 1: You've seen it, so it's probably the story of the
Speaker 1: God in us right. But what I wanted to do
Speaker 1: with the Book of Clarence was making a movie that
Speaker 1: resembled the environment that I grew up in. You know,
Speaker 1: growing up I watched Ben heard the Ten Commandments, quote
Speaker 1: Artist Samson and Delilah the Rogue, the greatest story ever told.
Speaker 1: I never know no one that looks like yul Brynner
Speaker 1: as the Pharaoh in each I never know no when
Speaker 1: it looks like Charlton Heston. Charlton Heston had the brutal
Speaker 1: kind of good looking dude, but brutal kind of face
Speaker 1: when he says, get your paws off me, you damn
Speaker 1: dirty ape. You can see the apes be like, Wow,
Speaker 1: you're being really racist. We were just capturing you. You're
Speaker 1: actually taking it to new levels. I never related to
Speaker 1: what they were showing me, even though we were familiar
Speaker 1: with some of the stories, and never related to the
Speaker 1: depiction of those stories or those people in those in
Speaker 1: those stories. I wanted to shoot to tell a story
Speaker 1: of the environment that I grew up in. Charlemagne's name
Speaker 1: is Charlemagne and the God it's from the Hord in
Speaker 1: South Carolina, like we grew up with with gods like peace,
Speaker 1: Peace to the God, Peace to the God. That's how
Speaker 1: we grow up. I wanted to I wanted to tell
Speaker 1: that story by transport of an every man right and
Speaker 1: every man who finds faith finds redemption. Whereas the Passion
Speaker 1: of Christ is a story of Jesus per se. It's
Speaker 1: like pages taken from the from the Bible.
Speaker 4: These are more like you always could be yours could
Speaker 4: be the real story, because it's like we all know
Speaker 4: Jesus was black, right, and they would never tell us
Speaker 4: if he really was.
Speaker 5: We know how to colonize it works, So how do
Speaker 5: we know the Book of c is it the actual
Speaker 5: story of Jesus when people saw that story and said, no, no, no,
Speaker 5: this is gonna be the image of it.
Speaker 1: Though just for everyone at home, Charlemagne said that I did.
Speaker 17: I'm like, for the.
Speaker 1: Record, no, Charlemagne, you are absolutely wrong. But but I mean,
Speaker 1: you know those ones. If cilluloid Choe fits the Book
Speaker 1: of Clarence, it's I mean, it's a it's a layered film.
Speaker 5: And you score everything yourself. Say you score everything yourself.
Speaker 1: I do the entire score. I composed the entire score myself.
Speaker 1: That's your song at the end. Yeah. I write and
Speaker 1: produce every single song in the soundtrack, and I write, produce,
Speaker 1: and perform. Unlike the Holiday four, where I did a
Speaker 1: slew of various artists, this is one. I perform every song,
Speaker 1: but with various artists. But the soundtrack is amazing. The
Speaker 1: Holtiday Full Soundtrack won every award that wasn't racist and
Speaker 1: then and I think the awards just got amnesia, Like
Speaker 1: you didn't even nominate that hardly for for nothing. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't make I don't make art for hardware. But
Speaker 1: the Book of Clarence soundtrack, which released Friday same day
Speaker 1: as a movie, is the hardest soundtrack on the planet.
Speaker 1: It's like myself, I got D'Angelo and jay Z on
Speaker 1: the same track.
Speaker 5: How did that happen? You gotta you gotta break that down.
Speaker 1: Seconds because it's just biblical, soulful bliss. Remember the joints.
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm not doing a radio edit for
Speaker 1: this joint.
Speaker 5: Thanks James, I'm gonna have to do it myself.
Speaker 1: Forget it. Thank you Friday, give me the dj Envy edit.
Speaker 1: It's just that good.
Speaker 5: How long is jay Z's verse?
Speaker 1: If the song is nine minute jay Z's it's not
Speaker 1: one of those ones like God did Okay, he was
Speaker 1: like spoken speaking on it. He's not like rapping these
Speaker 1: He's not rhyming, he's he's like he's just talking on
Speaker 1: it like a He just comes in and floats and
Speaker 1: DiAngelo goes in. So it's just that good. As you know.
Speaker 1: George Benjo on the soundtrack eighty four years old. These
Speaker 1: a guy that sings oh hoy yeah.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 1: Uh those your cat on the soundtrack on the same
Speaker 1: song as Kodak Black Wow and then Charlama Wow. They
Speaker 1: go in.
Speaker 5: I love both of them.
Speaker 4: Kodak goes in, wow, you took black people to the
Speaker 4: Old West. You took black people to the New Testament.
Speaker 4: Where you're taking us next?
Speaker 1: What's next? I don't know, Like, well, I know what
Speaker 1: we're doing next?
Speaker 23: Is this?
Speaker 1: I've kind of held it under my hat. But eventually, though,
Speaker 1: we have to go to space. We have to, we
Speaker 1: have to. We have to go to space, like I'll
Speaker 1: go to all the genres, right, all the genres, and
Speaker 1: I have something like modern day, which is which is
Speaker 1: absolutely crazy. But eventually we have to go to we
Speaker 1: have to go to space like we deserve to be
Speaker 1: in these in these places.
Speaker 4: Wow, well I'm excited for you guys to go out
Speaker 4: and check out this. Yeah, man, this is one of
Speaker 4: the ones you gotta go to the theater. It's not
Speaker 4: too many films that get me out the house to
Speaker 4: want to go sit in the movie theater. This is
Speaker 4: one of the ones you to go sit and watch
Speaker 4: in the movie.
Speaker 6: You have to.
Speaker 1: You have to, man, you have to. It's a it's
Speaker 1: a pleasure being on the breakfast club and speaking to
Speaker 1: this to the audience that you amassed over the over
Speaker 1: the years and telling them about the book, Clarence man,
Speaker 1: like this is the first movie of its kind ever
Speaker 1: literally ever, so before you know you holler blasphemy. Really
Speaker 1: just watch the film first, like it doesn't blasphere me,
Speaker 1: you know it really it really respects respects faith. You're
Speaker 1: not going to come out this movie question in your faith.
Speaker 1: But if you're a non believer, you may come out
Speaker 1: of this movie question in your non belief. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. It may come out this movie question
Speaker 1: in your number belief. But it's you know, it's a
Speaker 1: beautiful film, and it's a film that we all have
Speaker 1: to I think watch. It's the first movie that everyone
Speaker 1: can recognize the environment, even if you're white, you can

Speaker 4: I saw him sitting down with my man bootlet caps.
Speaker 4: I'd like to have a conversation with the young man NB.
Speaker 5: A young boy. All right, we'll get to that next.
Speaker 4: It don't move.
Speaker 5: It's the breakfast club.

Speaker 5: you're so good at it.
Speaker 6: Damn sol man who gives a dunky other day too?
Speaker 18: Now?
Speaker 4: Man, Yes, donkey today for Wednesday, January tenth goes to
Speaker 4: the young man known as the NBA Young Boy. Now,
Speaker 4: NBA young Boy recently sat down and had a conversation
Speaker 4: with the good brother bootle keV drop on a clues
Speaker 4: bombs of Bootleg keV the Bootley cav Podcast. keV is
Speaker 4: phenomenal at what he does. Been my guy for a
Speaker 4: long time. I've been singing Kev's praises in this media
Speaker 4: business for a decade or better.
Speaker 5: So it's great to see him shining. I slew th
Speaker 5: to my guy.
Speaker 4: But back to who he was having a conversation with
Speaker 4: the Young Brother, NBA Young Boy. Now, if you're at
Speaker 4: familiar with NBA Young Boy, he's very popular, been popular
Speaker 4: for a long time amongst the youth them. I respect
Speaker 4: what he's built for himself. He seems to live a
Speaker 4: very secluded life. He seems to be pretty out the
Speaker 4: way he lives in Utah, which his music.
Speaker 5: Out of minds.
Speaker 4: His business cool but snapp of fact about the NBA
Speaker 4: Young Boy, he has eleven kids, Okay, yes, eleven churn
Speaker 4: and he's twenty four years old. He's won away from
Speaker 4: having as many as Nick can. And the difference is
Speaker 4: Nick's forty three, NBA Young Boy is twenty four right now.
Speaker 4: NBA Young Boys kids can almost fill out an entire
Speaker 4: NBA team roster. If he keeps going at this place,
Speaker 4: he will be the not so proud owner of two
Speaker 4: NBA teams by the time.
Speaker 5: He's forty eight.
Speaker 4: Wait, Uncle Sharla, what do you mean not so proud owner? Well,
Speaker 4: this is why we are here today, folks.
Speaker 5: See.
Speaker 4: NBA Young Boy spoke about fatherhood because Bootleg cav asked
Speaker 4: him about fatherhood.
Speaker 5: Let's go to bout Lake's podcast report. Please, you do
Speaker 5: have a lot of children.
Speaker 31: You know, I've been around you to see in a
Speaker 31: short amount of time that you're a great father. How
Speaker 31: important is fatherhood to you?
Speaker 11: Man?
Speaker 23: Not really big on it?
Speaker 1: To be honest, What do you mean by that?
Speaker 5: You're not big on it like you're I mean you're
Speaker 5: a family man. I'm here with you, I see it.
Speaker 23: Yeah, but I'm only I'm only like in here because
Speaker 23: you will.
Speaker 11: Oh.
Speaker 5: Well, I don't believe it's a.
Speaker 23: Crazy topic because I'm not the type like the sugar
Speaker 23: coat man. But I'm full walls oh day every day.
Speaker 31: When you say four walls, you locked in. Yeah, just
Speaker 31: honed in on the music.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he has eleven kids, but in his words, he's
Speaker 4: not really big on fatherhood. NBA Young Boy treating fatherhood
Speaker 4: the way the NBA is. Nicola Jokis treats the NBA.
Speaker 4: You hear Joker talk about basketball at the same level.
Speaker 4: It don't give a f that NBA Joki has about
Speaker 4: basketball and being a young boy seems to have about
Speaker 4: being a father to his eleven kids. I shouldn't have
Speaker 4: to tell y'all that one of those things is not
Speaker 4: like the other. Okay, now, donkey Today is all about
Speaker 4: giving people the credit they deserve for being stupid. But
Speaker 4: it's also about using things like this as a teachable moment.
Speaker 4: I didn't know I would have to say this, but
Speaker 4: my brothers, that is whack, all right. So many of
Speaker 4: us come from broken home, so many of us had
Speaker 4: fathers or mothers that weren't big on having kids. But
Speaker 4: what bothers me about statements like this is yet NBA
Speaker 4: Young Boy talks that gangster talk in his records. Not
Speaker 4: only does he talk that gangster talk, he talks that
Speaker 4: big money talk. Well, in the words of jay Z,
Speaker 4: a man that don't take care of his family can't
Speaker 4: be rich. So don't talk money talk to me. If
Speaker 4: you're not big on fatherhood and as far as being gangster,
Speaker 4: you can kill thousands of people in your records, But
Speaker 4: if you're not big on fatherhood, you not g at
Speaker 4: all to me. Okay, what did the Liana state The
Speaker 4: caine in Minister of Society kine, I'm pregnant.
Speaker 5: You man enough to take a life, you ain't man
Speaker 5: enough to take care of one. That's right. You mad
Speaker 5: enough to take a life, but you not man enough
Speaker 5: to take care of one. Okay.
Speaker 4: And what was absolutely insane to me It was when
Speaker 4: Bootleg keV said the NBA young boy, you are a
Speaker 4: family man from what I see, and young boy says,
Speaker 4: I'm I'm only in here because you're here, as if
Speaker 4: he was just using the kid as a problem for
Speaker 4: the conversation, Like, young boy, I had a proseecond me
Speaker 4: consultation this week. Okay, my wife wants me to cut
Speaker 4: the cable. You should do everyone in the biggest favor
Speaker 4: and probably do the same, Okay.
Speaker 5: I don't know. At what point do you realize you
Speaker 5: not big on fatherhood?
Speaker 23: Is it?
Speaker 5: After child? One fish, two fish, three fish, blue fish?
Speaker 23: Like?
Speaker 5: Why do you have eleven children?
Speaker 11: You know?
Speaker 4: Did it take eleven children to get to the point
Speaker 4: to say you not big on fatherhood? Listen, we are
Speaker 4: in the era of generational curse breaking. Okay, those dysfunctional
Speaker 4: cycles we had to deal with. We the generation as
Speaker 4: supposed to break those and by the way, we are. Okay,
Speaker 4: let's not get a twitch because the NBA Young Boy
Speaker 4: facts seventy percent of black fathers who live with their
Speaker 4: children were most likely to have babe dress changed or
Speaker 4: help their child with the toilet every day, compared with
Speaker 4: their white and Hispanic counterparts. White is sixty percent, Hispanic
Speaker 4: is forty five percent. And that's according to the US
Speaker 4: Centers for Disease Control and Preventions National Healthatistics Report. Okay,
Speaker 4: those black fathers are also more likely to have eaten
Speaker 4: the meal with their children. Okay, the data has showed,
Speaker 4: and yes, these numbers are high. The data shows not
Speaker 4: just for biological fathers living inside the home, but it
Speaker 4: also indicates that black fathers often step into the role
Speaker 4: of step parent are maintained consistent involvement when living outside
Speaker 4: the home.
Speaker 5: And that's not coming from me. Don't listen to me.
Speaker 5: I got a lisp.
Speaker 4: Okay, that came from doctor Er Longer Turner, a licensed
Speaker 4: psychologist and associate professor of psychology at Peperdine University in Malibu, California.
Speaker 5: Don't let NBA Young Boy fool you.
Speaker 4: There's a myth of the missing black father because once again,
Speaker 4: stats show that close to seventy percent of all births
Speaker 4: to black mothers are non non marital okay, which gives
Speaker 4: rise to the stereotype that black fathers are largely absent. However,
Speaker 4: while black fathers are less likely than white and Hispanic
Speaker 4: fathers to marry their child's mother, many black fathers continue
Speaker 4: to parent through cohabitation and visitation, providing caretaking, financial and
Speaker 4: kind support. Young boy, you getting to the money, so
Speaker 4: you got the resources. But let me tell you something, King,
Speaker 4: that money don't mean as much as your time.
Speaker 5: Okay. You need to be big on fatherhood, all right.
Speaker 4: You don't have the luxury of not being big on
Speaker 4: fatherhood because no present is better than your presence. And
Speaker 4: you can't just physically be there to be present, you
Speaker 4: have to mentally and emotionally be there, be the adult
Speaker 4: you need it as a child. And look, man, and
Speaker 4: being a young boy, ill shoot him bare. He's only
Speaker 4: twenty four. I don't know the age of his oldest child,
Speaker 4: but I know that NBA, young boy is only twenty four.
Speaker 4: Your full frontal cortex hasn't even fully developed yet. That's
Speaker 4: a fact. Okay, the rational part of his brain won't
Speaker 4: be developed until he's twenty five. But I'm encouraging that
Speaker 4: young brother to do better now because the father's impact
Speaker 4: on child development is everything. Okay, and you have eleven children,
Speaker 4: those are your greatest responsibilities. Never broke again. Shouldn't just
Speaker 4: be about finances. It should be about homes. If you
Speaker 4: come from a broken home, you should make it your
Speaker 4: duty to never want to be a part of a
Speaker 4: broken home ever again. Sometimes we subconsciously become what we hate.
Speaker 4: We know that children who grow up with apsing fathers
Speaker 4: can suffer lasting damage.
Speaker 5: They're more likely to.
Speaker 4: End up in poverty, or drop out of school, become
Speaker 4: addicted to drugs, have a child out of wedlock, or
Speaker 4: end up in prison. That's why you have to be
Speaker 4: big on fatherhood, NBA Yellow Boy, especially since you got
Speaker 4: the opportunity to be king. You're alive, You're actually here
Speaker 4: for your kids physically, you're not in prison. You are here,
Speaker 4: able and capable of taking care of those eleven charen
Speaker 4: all right. When you make a decision to have a child,
Speaker 4: you're also making a decision to take responsibility for that child.
Speaker 4: You have eleven responsibilities and you cannot abandon your obligation
Speaker 4: as a parent because you have other plans. Like the
Speaker 4: music can't come before the children. The money can't come
Speaker 4: before the children.
Speaker 5: It just can't.
Speaker 4: No matter how big you think you doing it, you're
Speaker 4: not doing it big at all. If you not big
Speaker 4: on fatherhood, please give NBA young boy the biggest he
Speaker 4: all just the teachable moment. Man, Come on, man, we
Speaker 4: gotta be big on fatherhood now.
Speaker 10: Uh just want to tell you. You said he's you
Speaker 10: know he's in Utah. Well, he's on house, arrested in Utah.
Speaker 10: That's why he's out the way. He can't he's he
Speaker 10: can't leave the house. That's why he's in Utah. And
Speaker 10: I'm gonna try that at home tonight. When my kids
Speaker 10: come up to me and say that they're hungry, I'm
Speaker 10: gonna be like, I don't feel like fathering today.
Speaker 4: You don't feel like being Well, he didn't say he
Speaker 4: don't feel like being fathering. He actually he's not big
Speaker 4: on fatherhood. That's I'm gonna tell I'm not bad on
Speaker 4: fatherhood today.
Speaker 5: No, you're not. You're not gonna do that.
Speaker 4: When my daughter has to go to dance, I'm like
Speaker 4: that's your mom to drive you not.
Speaker 5: You know why you're not. I'm not you know why
Speaker 5: you're not gonna do that today. You're not gonna do
Speaker 5: that because you know better. When the baby comes in,
Speaker 5: her panther gotta be changing.
Speaker 4: Like that because you know better. But once again, like
Speaker 4: I said, I shoot him a little bit of beout.
Speaker 4: He's twenty four years old. Forefront of cortext don't develop
Speaker 4: till you're twenty five. The rational part of his brain
Speaker 4: not even working yet. We don't know what hell could
Speaker 4: be causing, you know, his brain not to be logically
Speaker 4: processing things the way that it should. But listen, I
Speaker 4: just want to tell all brothers out there, because this
Speaker 4: ain't just about n being a young boy. You have
Speaker 4: to be big on fatherhood. Okay, and there's a myth
Speaker 4: of the missing black father. Black fathers are here and
Speaker 4: we are showing up for our children. You heard the
Speaker 4: status that I just read. Okay, okay, seventy that's a
Speaker 4: big number.
Speaker 10: But let's let's open up the phone line because there's
Speaker 10: a lot of brothers out there that are big on
Speaker 10: father with good dad game.
Speaker 5: That's right, it's a it's a huge good dad Now

Speaker 10: I take my kids everywhere they need to go. I
Speaker 10: make sure i'm there. I try to nourish them. I
Speaker 10: try to give them everything I possibly can, more than
Speaker 10: my dad gave me that he knew more than I
Speaker 10: can afford, whether it's financial opposed to every generation. Absolutely,
Speaker 10: and my my father and my mother are there for
Speaker 10: my kids as well. But let's open up the phone line.

Speaker 10: gave the dog kid today to young boy.
Speaker 5: And a young boy.
Speaker 4: A young boy and be a young boy, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean. But you got to use opportunities like
Speaker 4: this is a teachable moment and being a young boy.
Speaker 4: He said he wasn't big on fatherhood. Let's play the clip.
Speaker 31: You do have a lot of children, you know, I've
Speaker 31: been around you just to see in a short amount
Speaker 31: of time that you're a great father. How important is
Speaker 31: fathering to you?
Speaker 11: Man?
Speaker 1: You're not really big on it, to be honest, what
Speaker 1: do you mean by that? You're not big on it
Speaker 1: like you're.
Speaker 5: I mean you're a family man. I mean here with you,
Speaker 5: I see it.
Speaker 23: Yeah, but I'm only I'm only like in here because
Speaker 23: you live.
Speaker 31: Oh well, I don't believe.
Speaker 23: It's a crazy topic because I'm not the type like
Speaker 23: a sugar coat man. But I'm full walls. Oh the.
Speaker 31: Every day when you say four walls, you locked in. Yeah,
Speaker 31: just honed in on the music.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So yeah for me man, I got bootleg cap too.
Speaker 4: That was on the bootlet Cap podcast. But for me,
Speaker 4: whenever I see you know, narratives like that, what tends
Speaker 4: to happen is, you know, all of these people they
Speaker 4: run with that headline and they amplify stories like that.
Speaker 4: So it's just like, Yo, that is a myth, the stereotip,
Speaker 4: the myth of the missing black father is exactly that.
Speaker 5: It's a myth.
Speaker 4: I read the stats during Donkey of the Day let
Speaker 4: Me find them again. Seventy percent of black fathers who
Speaker 4: live with their children and most likely to have babe
Speaker 4: dress changed or help their child with the toilet every
Speaker 4: day compared to white people sixty percent compared to Hispanics
Speaker 4: forty five percent. That's from the US Centers for Disease Control.
Speaker 4: Those black fathers are also more likely to have eaten
Speaker 4: the meal with their child, and those black fathers aren't
Speaker 4: even just biological fathers inside the home, but also indicates
Speaker 4: that black fathers often step into the role of step
Speaker 4: parent are maintained consistent involvement when living outside the home.
Speaker 4: So black fathers, man, a lot of us are big
Speaker 4: on fatherhood. So let's have all of the brothers that
Speaker 4: are big on fatherhood calling right now.
Speaker 10: That's right, eight hundred and five eighty five, one on
Speaker 10: five one. And you should be big on fatherhood. You
Speaker 10: should be taking care of your kids. You should be
Speaker 10: doing more an extra It should be less about you
Speaker 10: and more about nurturing your child. And if anybody knows
Speaker 10: me personally, you know all of my children nine times
Speaker 10: out of ten because I always have them with me.
Speaker 10: I take every opportunity to teach to have my kids.
Speaker 10: I will miss party shows to make sure my kids
Speaker 10: games recitals. I do the dances with my kids, We
Speaker 10: play taboo, monopoly, we do anything possible.
Speaker 5: I love my kids.
Speaker 10: That's the one thing I would say in this world
Speaker 10: that gives me my first joy is being with my family,
Speaker 10: my kids.
Speaker 5: It's no better joy than that.
Speaker 4: You ever have a bad day and then you pick
Speaker 4: up your baby from daycare and she come running too you.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Charleman, you know how that feels?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 9: Red?
Speaker 5: Do you know how that feels? And I was listening
Speaker 5: to you.
Speaker 4: I said, if you have even a remotely bad day
Speaker 4: and you pick up your child from daycare, you come
Speaker 4: home and that child runs to you like it's the
Speaker 4: first time she's seen you in years.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I love that every God every day.
Speaker 10: All right, Well let's go to the phone line. We
Speaker 10: got Calvin on the line. Calvin, good morning.
Speaker 9: Hey, what's up man?
Speaker 8: How's gone?
Speaker 17: Hey?
Speaker 5: Calvin? Good morning. We're talking about fatherhood. You big on fatherhood?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's televin, so you have not, Calvin.
Speaker 9: I that's.
Speaker 8: I'm big on fatherhood. My My My take on like
Speaker 8: when NBA Young Boy was saying, Conder is like, when
Speaker 8: you don't have that fatherhood example, you don't know the
Speaker 8: severity of like what's going on or like the imagey
Speaker 8: hold in front of your kids. You know, me and
Speaker 8: my says mother in together, but we're both super active
Speaker 8: in his life. And you know, I found somebody that's
Speaker 8: a good role model for him as well. So it's
Speaker 8: just it's all about who you put in your child's
Speaker 8: life and the importance that you hold to you know,
Speaker 8: the word fatherhood also, and it's like Charlemagne was saying,
Speaker 8: we got a lot of broken home, so for him
Speaker 8: to be never broke against, you know, definitely apply to
Speaker 8: a broken home.
Speaker 5: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 10: That might be part of the reason why he feels
Speaker 10: like that, Like you said, maybe his dad is not
Speaker 10: in his life, so he doesn't know what to do
Speaker 10: or what how to feel, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: I remember reading one time, I think his I think
Speaker 4: his father got like fifty plus years in prison. Oh really,
Speaker 4: I think for like, I don't know, maybe I'm wrong,
Speaker 4: I thought I read that before. But you know, somebody
Speaker 4: can school me, you know, but listen, if you're big
Speaker 4: on fatherhood, call us right now.
Speaker 5: Man, go through the phone. Let's talk to the brothers
Speaker 5: that's big on fatherhood. Burnett, Yo, what's up? What's up?
Speaker 6: Man?
Speaker 5: We're asking are you big on fatherhood?
Speaker 4: Brother?
Speaker 11: Absolutely? Man, like the number one job you have as
Speaker 11: a man, but a black man.
Speaker 5: That's right. Okay, that's all you got for us. Well,
Speaker 5: whatever you are, that's right.
Speaker 11: Things they work on with the mom and I at
Speaker 11: that time were yell with me. All everything was about
Speaker 11: them at that point. It makes you want to be
Speaker 11: a better person, change your life, make sure that they
Speaker 11: don't struggle, and prepare for whatever the will have going home.
Speaker 5: That's right, man.
Speaker 25: You know.
Speaker 4: I read some stats during Donkey of the Day about
Speaker 4: how you know, close to seventy percent of all births
Speaker 4: to black mothers are non marital, non marital. But that
Speaker 4: makes people think that black fathers are largely absent. But
Speaker 4: it says that black fathers are less likely than white
Speaker 4: and Hispanic fathers to marry their child's mother. But all
Speaker 4: of those black fathers continue to parent well. Many of
Speaker 4: them continue to parent through cohabitation and visitation, and they
Speaker 4: provide caretaking, financial and incon supports. Even though you may
Speaker 4: not be married to the mother your child, you're still
Speaker 4: there for your children, and that's what's important. At the
Speaker 4: time when all.
Speaker 11: My kids were ball, we were we got divorced. Cacle God,
Speaker 11: I was there.
Speaker 1: I saw it all.
Speaker 5: Got you, bro, Thank you brother, Thank you, brother, doubt. Hello,
Speaker 5: who's this to star Share?
Speaker 13: Gone from Jersey?
Speaker 17: Hey?
Speaker 5: What's up?
Speaker 17: Brother?
Speaker 5: We're talking about being big on fatherhood. You big on fatherhood?
Speaker 13: Absolutely, I'm big on fatherhood. When I first had my
Speaker 13: son and changed my life completely. Before my son, I
Speaker 13: was walking around gang banging. I used to walk around
Speaker 13: with a thirty eighth.
Speaker 25: For no reason.
Speaker 13: When I found out have my son, I went and
Speaker 13: got my license because it's the winter time. There's no
Speaker 13: way I'm getting on the bus with a newborn baby.
Speaker 13: Had to go back to school's trade school for electrical
Speaker 13: Now I'm working for a big company, bringing in decent
Speaker 13: money for my family, and I have another new born
Speaker 13: on the way.
Speaker 5: Congress.
Speaker 13: That never happened to me. The best thing every day
Speaker 13: I come home, I look forth to just giving my
Speaker 13: son a hug, like there's no better business at coming
Speaker 13: home and get kids waiting right there here, like I
Speaker 13: still get my son's kitsches because I know what you
Speaker 13: get older, he's gonna start pushing me away. But I'm
Speaker 13: enjoying every bit of that while I can, that's vastly
Speaker 13: to have.
Speaker 9: It happened to me.
Speaker 13: And my father was the one that said that example
Speaker 13: for me because he was the great father, great provided
Speaker 13: so I had to follow his footsteps.
Speaker 1: It's only right, all right, bro, have a go on.
Speaker 4: You know something that he said that was key man like,
Speaker 4: he said, he's had a great father, he learned from
Speaker 4: his father, so he saw it. And I think that's
Speaker 4: that's what's so remarkable to me about so many black
Speaker 4: men that I know, man, so many black men didn't
Speaker 4: have that example themselves, but somehow or another, we figured
Speaker 4: out a way to be better than what we saw.
Speaker 10: Right, you know, So salute to us, and that's how
Speaker 10: we should be. And it never gets old. I mean
Speaker 10: even at at my age and my dad's in his eighties.
Speaker 10: If something happens or something's wrong, my dad pulls up,
Speaker 10: he's there immediately, he's the first one there.
Speaker 5: What's up.

Speaker 10: topic is it's just being a dad. It doesn't matter
Speaker 10: like you want your kids around. It doesn't matter who
Speaker 10: you are, what you do, what your job is, how
Speaker 10: much money you make, it doesn't matter at the end
Speaker 10: of the day with your kids.
Speaker 4: Right, were big on fatherhood especially, You know, when you

Speaker 4: life is about.
Speaker 5: Life is about family. That's it, nothing more and nothing less.
Speaker 4: There's nothing that makes me happier on this planet than
Speaker 4: my wife and my children.
Speaker 5: That's right period.
Speaker 10: Now fifty cent says he has some new ideas. He says,
Speaker 10: my new idea is so big, I don't have time
Speaker 10: to be distracted. I'm practicing. I'm practicing abstinence. I've been
Speaker 10: meditating and focusing on my goals. I hope this new
Speaker 10: year helps you excel to the next level. Ranch And
Speaker 10: so fifty is set. He's a practice and abstinence.
Speaker 4: By the way, all fifty is saying is that you
Speaker 4: have to make sacrifices in order to get to your
Speaker 4: grade goal. I don't think people realize that. I think
Speaker 4: we live in this era where people feel like, you know,
Speaker 4: you can just have.
Speaker 5: It all and do it all.
Speaker 4: I think sometimes we don't realize the trade is if
Speaker 4: you want more, you got to give up some things.
Speaker 4: And he's just making sacrifices right now. That's right, it's
Speaker 4: a great sacrifice.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 10: Glorilla says she started her ninety days celibacy for the
Speaker 10: New Year's and what.
Speaker 5: She's doing, what's her goal while she's doing this.
Speaker 10: She says, she's on her ninth day and her vision
Speaker 10: is blurry as f right now. She said, please send help.
Speaker 10: So I guess that's why your vision blurry.
Speaker 5: What I mean, I don't know. I guess celibacy is
Speaker 5: not working out.
Speaker 4: She's happened somebody, somebody's school, your old uncle, sh'all. I
Speaker 4: don't know what that means when your vision your blur
Speaker 4: because you ain't been getting nothing.
Speaker 5: She just wants something, that's all. Her vision is blurry.
Speaker 1: She just needs something.
Speaker 5: You don't know what you're talking Sometimes you need being
Speaker 5: even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: That's what it is.
Speaker 5: How you know you don't know the answer, But you said,
Speaker 5: I know, I know what you said. Anything answer?

Speaker 4: Rotating guest co hosts, and I thought we was rotating
Speaker 4: guest goal hosts before we let God decide who was
Speaker 4: supposed to be in here.
Speaker 5: Now twenty twenty four, what happened? Did we just say
Speaker 5: it's not gonna be another co host? I can't take

Speaker 4: least a year, because you be you know, Angelie is
Speaker 4: what I always say, She's irreplaceable, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: So it's like the person that's coming here in here
Speaker 4: is not replacing anyone. If there's somebody coming in here,
Speaker 4: that's my whole point of having this conversation.
Speaker 5: What the hell happened. You know everything. You tell me
