Speaker 1: Good morning. I was just wondering how long does it
Speaker 1: take when you're in a relationship to want to get engage,
Speaker 1: especially if that's something a woman wants. You need to
Speaker 1: stop asking personal question. That's what you need to stop doing. Okay,
Speaker 1: stop a personal part I'm sorry that triggered me a
Speaker 1: little bit. No, no, no, I'll tell you why I
Speaker 1: triggered me a little bit, because I've been I've been
Speaker 1: on my my wife for twenty four years, so we've
Speaker 1: been together since the nineteen hundred and nineties. But we
Speaker 1: I didn't uh and proposed to her until twenty thirteen.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I don't, don't, don't you? Oh wow? Nothing.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a lot, that's a long time, and
Speaker 1: that's a very long time. Let me ask you a question,
Speaker 1: how long have you been? How long have you been?
Speaker 1: Have you been with your man or woman? Nine years?
Speaker 1: Nine years? Is it serious? Y'all live in the same
Speaker 1: house or kind of stupid questions? Attack together? Nine years?
Speaker 1: You ask if she because it might not be serious,
Speaker 1: same bed. No, you gotta make sure serious, because it
Speaker 1: could be, you know, because you could be with somebody
Speaker 1: for nine years, but it's not serious, maybe as long
Speaker 1: as this day. But the fact that they're living with
Speaker 1: each other, and that y'all in the same bed, y'all
Speaker 1: y'all paying half a rent. I mean, I think it's
Speaker 1: about time. I think it's about time. Now hot now.
Speaker 1: I mean if I was in your situation and I
Speaker 1: wanted to be you know, engaged and get married and
Speaker 1: he's basically just, you know, just dead because he's comfortable,
Speaker 1: I would withhold the poop poof man. Shut up, man,
Speaker 1: I don't like I don't like what you're saying him
Speaker 1: legs I would close them legs. I mean, you want
Speaker 1: to get married right now? He's just you know, he's
Speaker 1: just doing what he gotta do, and he's comfortable. He's
Speaker 1: knocking it off. He's not. Every day has a married couple,
Speaker 1: but he's just not married. Think about it like this,
Speaker 1: He's be very important. Shut up your big cheek food.
Speaker 1: How old are you man? I'm twenty eight. We've been
Speaker 1: together since I was my fain. See what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They've been together since they was young. Get that man
Speaker 1: a little bit more time. How much more time does
Speaker 1: he need? They've been together fifteen years, they sleep fifty
Speaker 1: and I'm not having a baby without being married. See,
Speaker 1: and he wants a baby. That's right. You close them legs, Mama.
Speaker 1: I don't think you should close yours. You should, you should.
Speaker 1: You should tell him you want to be married. You
Speaker 1: may not know you want to be married. Have you
Speaker 1: told him that before? He knows? How does he know
Speaker 1: if you haven't told him? Tell me how he knows
Speaker 1: about it? Oh? Okay, so you've been very vocal. You
Speaker 1: told him you want to get married. He wants a child,
Speaker 1: he wants a baby. I'm sure he stayed y'all stay together,
Speaker 1: You watch his clothes, you cook for him, and sometimes, hey,
Speaker 1: he's just comfortable, but you close them legs, he gonna
Speaker 1: be uncomfortable. I will say, I don't like what Intervy
Speaker 1: is saying, but I understand what he's saying. You know,
Speaker 1: at this point, you know he's he's leasing, but you
Speaker 1: know there should be an option to buy. So you
Speaker 1: have to tell him. You know, after a while, you
Speaker 1: can't just continue to lease this. You's gonna purchase nothing.
Speaker 1: So what they have worked for you? If your wife
Speaker 1: did it? Oh oh uh yeah, see you know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna put this thing on lock. That's right, you put that.
Speaker 1: You put a little lock on. It can only be
Speaker 1: with a ring. Yeah, okay. And because because there's other
Speaker 1: things too, right, like you know, we had a child,
Speaker 1: so you know when you got your daughter asking like
Speaker 1: why y'all don't have the last name? At some point,
Speaker 1: as a man, you're like, why don't we? Like what
Speaker 1: am I waiting on? Like what's the problem here? You know?
Speaker 1: So yeah, he needs to get it to get why
Speaker 1: do that right? He needs to get it together, like, yes,
Speaker 1: marriage is a beautiful thing. Get it off your chest.
Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Luve of the morning. The breakfast Club's doll, Yo,
Speaker 1: this is your time to get it off your chest,
Speaker 1: whether you're mad or blessed. Eight five five one. We
Speaker 1: want to hear from you on the breakfast club. Hello.
Speaker 1: Who's this? Hey? How's it going? Man? This straight? So
Speaker 1: man the time? A personal question and asenance kind of
Speaker 1: regarding towards my daughter. You know, we recently just got
Speaker 1: cut from a softball team out here in Conro and uh,
Speaker 1: you know how to say, I feel like it's personal
Speaker 1: and maybe maybe you got to tell me I'm right
Speaker 1: or wrong. Um, you know, it's a new softball team,
Speaker 1: and so I feel that I've been asking questions about
Speaker 1: where's the money going and how things have gotten spent,
Speaker 1: and you know, I'm just asking certain questions that I
Speaker 1: feel like head organization isn't liking. Statistically, my daughter is
Speaker 1: the third best player on the team, and yet we
Speaker 1: just recently got cut. And not only that, they did
Speaker 1: it insensitive right before it was like, you know, hey,
Speaker 1: do we still attend like you know, what do I
Speaker 1: do for my daughter? Damn? How does she feel about it?
Speaker 1: So you're telling us your daughter got cut? You're thinking
Speaker 1: because you were asking too many questions, and because of
Speaker 1: your questions, you got your daughter cut you believe, Yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure? Are you sure about that? Are your daughter
Speaker 1: just not good? No? Bro? She uh man, she's saying
Speaker 1: this in a sense. She's nine years old. Bro, she
Speaker 1: she's you know, five foot three at nine years old?
Speaker 1: And what a question? Are you asking? Where the money going? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do you think that I got my daughter cutter was
Speaker 1: a personal issue? I mean, do you think that you know,
Speaker 1: I should have just fell in line and been like
Speaker 1: a sheet, you know. I feel like that's what it is.
Speaker 1: That they don't want nobody to go against the grain.
Speaker 1: And you know, it's not like I was pressuring them
Speaker 1: about the questions. I was just say, hey, you know,
Speaker 1: as a monthly courtesy, you know, we would like to see,
Speaker 1: as parents and a coach, where's the money going. You're
Speaker 1: paying for fills, you're paying for equipment. Like, just what's
Speaker 1: going on? Not just not that I'm staying the pocketing
Speaker 1: the money, but I'm just saying I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: fund my team and their team, And I think that's
Speaker 1: what's going on. So I'm trying to figure out, how
Speaker 1: can they cut your daughter? If they you've been paying
Speaker 1: for it. They're they're the head organization. Like they're they're
Speaker 1: they're in charge of the team. So he was asking
Speaker 1: the question, Charlemagne, They're saying, let's say it's a monthly.
Speaker 1: So he was asking the questions before his daughter made
Speaker 1: the team, and he was asking, we had already been
Speaker 1: on the team. Oh, so this a new year. So
Speaker 1: i'm and I'm on, and I'm a coach, I'm a
Speaker 1: coaching staff. We're on the team. We've been on the
Speaker 1: team since the very beginning. And you know, my daughter
Speaker 1: is a competitive cheer leader, and you know, like you said,
Speaker 1: we pay for these things. So I reserve the right
Speaker 1: to talk to the coaches about any and everything I
Speaker 1: want to. Okay, I don't give a damn. I will
Speaker 1: I will, I will, I will talk to them. I
Speaker 1: will tell them things I don't like. Uh, if my
Speaker 1: daughter has complaints, me and my wife will go talk
Speaker 1: to the coaches. We got a meeting schedule with the
Speaker 1: coach soon, one of the coaches soon, by the way,
Speaker 1: So uh, there's I don't see nothing wrong with what
Speaker 1: you did, sir. Now I don't see nothing wrong with
Speaker 1: what you did either. Um, you have the right, like
Speaker 1: Charlomagne said, you pay so you have the right to
Speaker 1: ask questions. Now, the fact that they cut your daughter, yeah,
Speaker 1: it does seem like it's is they really don't want
Speaker 1: you there because you're asking questions, meaning possibly they're doing
Speaker 1: something wrong with the money and they don't want it
Speaker 1: out there. But the great thing about softball and baseball,
Speaker 1: in these sports, there's other teams. So I would look
Speaker 1: to put my daughter on another team and then bust
Speaker 1: that team's ass. I've had that happen with me before.
Speaker 1: I'm serious my son. When Logan was growing up, my
Speaker 1: town team at the time, kind Alan, I didn't like
Speaker 1: the way they would treating Logan, so I put them
Speaker 1: on another team in New York, Brick City, shout the
Speaker 1: Brick City Lions and Brick City Lions. He did his
Speaker 1: damn thing, and I was waiting for us to play
Speaker 1: kind Alan again and bust his ass. And ever since
Speaker 1: Logan left kind Alan, uh that that school left football
Speaker 1: team has been horrible. So you know, if sometimes you
Speaker 1: gotta leave, go to another school and do what you
Speaker 1: gotta do. And I agree, I respect that answer, you know,
Speaker 1: and honestly, you know, I a meeting with the coach.
Speaker 1: And on top of that, the head coach is a
Speaker 1: nineteen year old little girl, and I say, look broke
Speaker 1: because she's nineteen, you know what I mean. And she's
Speaker 1: never coached the team before. And I'm like, man, you've
Speaker 1: got grown you got grown folks on the team, man,
Speaker 1: and take it to Yeah, no, man, got a good man.
Speaker 1: And every since everything, Man, I've been hoping and I've
Speaker 1: been praying, man, and some things that kind of come through.
Speaker 1: Last night, Man, I got a really good phone call.
Speaker 1: I just didn't know. Maybe I read into too much.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I'm the kind of guy
Speaker 1: that you know were on the leave. So it's like,
Speaker 1: is it just me or what's really going on? Take
Speaker 1: it to a little team and God is great, Chick
Speaker 1: fil A is good. God is great. And personally I
Speaker 1: would have been asking the coach while my daughter got cut,
Speaker 1: you gotta explain to me why my daughter got cut.
Speaker 1: And that's right too, you asked that question as well.
Speaker 1: Get it off your chest. It's the breakfast, legal Morning,
Speaker 1: the breakfast club, the breakfast club. Your mornings will never
Speaker 1: be the same morning. Everybody is DJ d Angela Ye Charlemagne,
Speaker 1: the guy. We are breakfast club. We got a special
Speaker 1: guest in the building, ice wear Vessel. What it dude? Brother?

Speaker 1: a time. Brother. I'm glad you're up here because since
Speaker 1: you signed with Quality Control, like we gotta get Vessel
Speaker 1: back on the show. Yeah, I appreciate that too. Clearly
Speaker 1: it was a very lucrative deal. Yeah, it was good.
Speaker 1: It was a good We actually did a partnership fifty okay,
Speaker 1: So you know that's why, you know, I appreciate that situation.
Speaker 1: I appreciate Pe for, like, you know, letting me approach
Speaker 1: it as a as a as a young boss. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm making it just you know,
Speaker 1: teaching me the business and showing me how everything working,
Speaker 1: allowing me that opportunity to grow my company as well.
Speaker 1: So we did a fifty fifty partnership. You know, I
Speaker 1: did convince you the partner with you see Old that conversation,
Speaker 1: like I convinced myself honestly, you know, me and Peep
Speaker 1: and building for probably like a year and a half
Speaker 1: straight without talking, no business, none of that. You know,
Speaker 1: We've just been vibing and moving around and growing to
Speaker 1: understand each other, you know, and learning each other mentally,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I just like how
Speaker 1: bro Rock, I like how operate. I like how you think.
Speaker 1: And you know he ain't he ain't no selfish due
Speaker 1: like he won't. He won't youngest to really, you know,
Speaker 1: get get everything out of that. You know, it's bigger
Speaker 1: than just being an artist. You know, Pete gonna show
Speaker 1: you how to really really turn up and think for
Speaker 1: the long run and not just like a rapper at
Speaker 1: that moment, you know. So I felt like it was
Speaker 1: a perfect situation for me, which it was to me.
Speaker 1: And I think I saw somewhere that you said take
Speaker 1: Off Takeoff was the first person to embrace you as
Speaker 1: an independent on literally man take Off back in like
Speaker 1: two thousand and fifteen, take Off Cane in my restaurant
Speaker 1: I had but a restaurant when I was a kid
Speaker 1: and a car wash and dispenser. Takeoff was in Detroit,
Speaker 1: he DM me like, Bro, I'm in your city. Let's
Speaker 1: link tap in he put up at the restaurant, Bro,
Speaker 1: and he just gave me a lot of game, like
Speaker 1: a lot of motivation. I was fighting a fair case
Speaker 1: at the time, and he told me like, Bro, like
Speaker 1: just seeing everything you got going on and how you
Speaker 1: moving and just knowing how you know, how young you
Speaker 1: wiz right now. You know, Like, Bro, you keep doing
Speaker 1: what you're doing, You're gonna be big. Bro. Stick to
Speaker 1: the music, You're gonna be something when you get out,
Speaker 1: you know. Promote my music and posting my music gave
Speaker 1: me a verse all that. Like he was the first
Speaker 1: ever real life Yeah, the first, and it came back
Speaker 1: full circle. So I'm sure when you connected with QC,
Speaker 1: I'm sure he was one of the first people to congratulate. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he definitely was. Even before we like locked the deal down.
Speaker 1: He kind of heard about it. He like, Bro, that's
Speaker 1: a good move. Bro, I'm proud of you. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. Keep doing your thing, and you know,
Speaker 1: it's just it's just unfortunate situation like with take because
Speaker 1: Bro really a solid dude, and you know, people say
Speaker 1: that every time somebody passed, you know, but like heine,
Speaker 1: he genuinely was that he was a good brother, like
Speaker 1: a real good guy. He had his head on his shoulders.
Speaker 1: And one thing about take off. He never tried to
Speaker 1: be somebody or something that he wouldn't. He was always
Speaker 1: himself from my understanding, you know, from how new him
Speaker 1: and how I met him, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So rest in peace honestly to extent. Yeah, but for
Speaker 1: the most part, right now, it don't seem like it
Speaker 1: don't seem like you know, we're living in a town
Speaker 1: where everybody got something to prove, you know, everybody worried
Speaker 1: about what the next person think about them. And right now,
Speaker 1: to me, I think the black man biggest downfall as
Speaker 1: they pride. It's the pride. Pride is the pride is
Speaker 1: our number one down for you know, we let our
Speaker 1: pride getting away, and every time I ever used my pride,
Speaker 1: I feel right after that, you know, I learned that
Speaker 1: the hard way. So you know, now with with with
Speaker 1: the pride and the ego and throw the money in
Speaker 1: the play, it's just it's just it's too much, bro,
Speaker 1: And I think we gotta I don't think we I
Speaker 1: don't think we're given ourselves the chance to grow. You know,
Speaker 1: we're not letting ourselves elevate because we too focused on
Speaker 1: worldly things. You know. I just learned recently learned that
Speaker 1: man's number one cause of depression is environmental stress. Literally,
Speaker 1: that's number one cause environmental stress, meaning everything that we
Speaker 1: are around and everything that we surround ourselves around. You know.
Speaker 1: So until we're able to kind of evaluate who and
Speaker 1: what we got around us and change our our environment,
Speaker 1: we're not going to allow ourselves to grow. How do
Speaker 1: you think having your wife has actually helped you through
Speaker 1: so many different things? Though having a great partner I
Speaker 1: think is one of the most supportive things that you
Speaker 1: can have. Absolutely, my wife played real like the biggest
Speaker 1: part in my life. You know. It been you know,
Speaker 1: women mature faster than us. And then so many times
Speaker 1: where I thought like foolishly and childishly, and she checked me.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, my wife is like
Speaker 1: is my backbone. She is that same part that that
Speaker 1: at times I don't have, you know, And I know
Speaker 1: when I got married, God blessed me in a different way,
Speaker 1: you know, because it gave me some type of foundation
Speaker 1: to to far back on and something to stand on,
Speaker 1: like you know, I say this all the time, like
Speaker 1: the best, the best attribute a woman got is the intuition.
Speaker 1: That's that other sense like a woman's intuition is. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: You know, anytime my wife ever told me something, she
Speaker 1: ain't never been wrong. And I learned a hard way
Speaker 1: to to not ignore her, to not ignore her feelings,
Speaker 1: to not ignore her thoughts and you know, and her
Speaker 1: views on pretty much everything. You know. So without my wife,
Speaker 1: I don't know where i'd be in And I genuinely
Speaker 1: mean that, like she she's she's she's stood taught for
Speaker 1: me a million times. And don't feel good speaking on
Speaker 1: the intuition. Don't feel good when when she know you solid,
Speaker 1: when she know you're doing what you're supposed to be doing.
Speaker 1: But when they when we when we get off together,
Speaker 1: they know that too, that they know that they feel amazing.
Speaker 1: She knowed me. Sometimes I feel like she knowed me
Speaker 1: more than I know myself. Lord all we got more
Speaker 1: with ice wear vessel when we come back. It's the
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast club. I'm wanting everybody

Speaker 1: to try to be like that. They kind of got
Speaker 1: it backwards, you know. It's it's just a little off,

Speaker 1: or what made you say I want to put it
Speaker 1: all out there. Well that's what I do while I'm
Speaker 1: writing a book, or not, I put it all out there.
Speaker 1: I'll give you one teaser. I fainted at the White
Speaker 1: House and woke up. The medical marines, the White House doctor,
Speaker 1: I woke up. I went go take care of Obama mother.
Speaker 1: All I did was fainting to Obama baby. They gave
Speaker 1: me three Christmas cookies and some water, you know, to revive.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting down. Ain't this the White House? I know?
Speaker 1: Goddamn well, Michelle got some chicken in that guy. I said,
Speaker 1: y'all gonna get me some chicken. Baby. They said, I
Speaker 1: heard saw somebody whisper. They were saying, get this bitch
Speaker 1: out of here. They putting me in a wheelchair like
Speaker 1: an hospital, rolled me out the front gate, and dumped
Speaker 1: my ass out of Get that out of here. Oh,
Speaker 1: they loved me up you know, they loved they loved
Speaker 1: me up there. Everybody was so concerned. I forgot to eat.
Speaker 1: I was so excited to meet, to meet the President
Speaker 1: and the first Lady. Come. I met them before, maybe
Speaker 1: two or three times. But I met Barack when he
Speaker 1: was a senator. Oprah had a fundraiser for him. Stevie
Speaker 1: won to sang it was beautiful that bitch had so
Speaker 1: much land. I was like, gone, Oprah, did Obama's check
Speaker 1: on you afterwards? Hell no, he'd gone on upstairs with
Speaker 1: Michelle nothing for he probably had never told him that
Speaker 1: a crazy bitch was in the White House. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: But you know what I learned from Obama that day
Speaker 1: when he spoke. I never heard a word he said.
Speaker 1: I only saw his compassion for the families of the
Speaker 1: victims that had been shot in the church. The man.
Speaker 1: You and I have been a real big activists since
Speaker 1: Trump was elected because you see what's missing. Like you know,
Speaker 1: even if you don't agree with everything that Obama did
Speaker 1: policy wise, that compassion and the other thing he led
Speaker 1: with love. Yes, that's why Trump came with him. Come on, now,
Speaker 1: you leading with haydes Leading with love, you don't win.
Speaker 1: You cannot destroy love, you can't match it. The only
Speaker 1: thing that matches love is love. I agree with you,
Speaker 1: But how do you explain white supremacy because that's been
Speaker 1: leading with hate since the day we got him. Y'all
Speaker 1: don't want to start me. Yes we do that January sixth,
Speaker 1: they looked like roaches climbing those faults. How dare you you, mother?
Speaker 1: Because where you built this building? See, they went on
Speaker 1: tour the day before to see why they were gonna
Speaker 1: get in, and whoever took him around forgot to tell
Speaker 1: him those windows are not the same qualities as the
Speaker 1: ones in your trailer. When the girl got tear gass
Speaker 1: in her eyes and somebody interviewed her. But what's going on?
Speaker 1: She said, the little Karen. They dar gasped me and
Speaker 1: he said, well, who are you? My name is Sylvia
Speaker 1: William And then they went on and they got her dress.
Speaker 1: She gave them my dress. That dumb bitch. She was
Speaker 1: just you know, she was being interviewed and she was distressed.
Speaker 1: You dumb bitch. She's in jail. She got eight years. Damn.
Speaker 1: You know. Here's the other thing. All I could vision
Speaker 1: was a few of them having stopped at an ice
Speaker 1: cream stool and stood there and couldn't decide amongst the
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty flavors where you just get back
Speaker 1: to vanilla, you're dumb backs. But as they licked, they
Speaker 1: ate ice cream on their way there. The privilege that
Speaker 1: made me sick. And people were reacted like it was
Speaker 1: just a bunch of kids having fun at spring break.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna be honest with you. With those
Speaker 1: Republican senators are all sociopaths, you know what. I know,
Speaker 1: Trump with his mafia ass, as soon as he got in,
Speaker 1: he got all the dish on all those senators. I
Speaker 1: can't go with him, Sean. Look with little boys and hookers,
Speaker 1: they got pictures, so they can't even be human. The
Speaker 1: more they're just scared. What do you think about to do?
Speaker 1: President and Vice President Biden has experience. It's a shamis
Speaker 1: the age? Is Kamala a bad bitch? I'm sorry, and
Speaker 1: he's good, And I bet you in the mind of money,
Speaker 1: he calls it Obama every mornings, Barack please, Barrock, please
Speaker 1: do this years jaser choice. Do I bomb a country now?
Speaker 1: Should I shoot them? Should I shoot them down from
Speaker 1: the walls. I gotta tell y'all, I don't hate. I
Speaker 1: don't hate nobody. But that was some nasty But let
Speaker 1: me tell you another thing. History does repeat itself. I
Speaker 1: thought we had evolved beyond that. We just got a
Speaker 1: sound of a black hole. We have closed ups of Jupiter,
Speaker 1: put a man on the moon, and all we can
Speaker 1: do is destroy Earth. You see, I just got back
Speaker 1: from Antarctica. Y'all know I travel. The captain of the
Speaker 1: ship showed me the waterline and he said to me,
Speaker 1: miss Lewis, I know you're a celebrity, but my crew
Speaker 1: tells me you're an activist. I said, yes, sir, I am.
Speaker 1: He said, I would ask that you go back to
Speaker 1: your country and tell whoever will listen. We're in trouble.
Speaker 1: The Arctic is melting at the light of speed, y'all.
Speaker 1: We need the Polus to orbit, and these bastards don't
Speaker 1: want it. Believe in science, dumb Trump. I'm sorry, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't want to want to say his name. But

Speaker 1: I got to college. I found out it was nickel.
Speaker 1: Can you believe it when you got it? When you
Speaker 1: got it? The field surreal, I told the audience that day.
Speaker 1: It was not the work I did on camera stage,
Speaker 1: It was the work I did all I went and
Speaker 1: got help. Damn near everybody in the show businesses bipolar.
Speaker 1: They don't know it because they got in it to
Speaker 1: hide that mania so they wouldn't be different. They're in
Speaker 1: the normal world. I hesitated to take medication because I
Speaker 1: didn't want it to take my edge. It didn't. I
Speaker 1: stayed in literally had to be re raised. My mama
Speaker 1: didn't half time to take care of me. There was
Speaker 1: no affection. I was her seventh child and she was
Speaker 1: twenty six. The hell is she gonna do with seven
Speaker 1: babies scrubbing white people's floor But what she did give
Speaker 1: me was work ethics. She stopped scrubbing white people's floors,
Speaker 1: and she went and got her certificate and became a
Speaker 1: nurse's aid. She said, I'll be damned if those white
Speaker 1: people come to my house. To check it out so
Speaker 1: I can get a welfare check. You remember, they used
Speaker 1: to come in there make sure the father wasn't that
Speaker 1: see if the daddy was home, you didn't get wealfare
Speaker 1: if they came in there and saw you had a
Speaker 1: nice stuff that was reported. Here's a story you don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm about how old am I now? I'm six to
Speaker 1: five nine, But I'm trying to tell a story. I
Speaker 1: was seven years old then white man came to my
Speaker 1: mama's house to check on it so she couldn't get it. Well,
Speaker 1: check comes right to the front door, doesn't come roll
Speaker 1: the way in. Yet. He peered in and saw an
Speaker 1: upright piano that a white family had given my mother,
Speaker 1: and he said these words, where you get that piano? Nigga?
Speaker 1: I was standing there with my thumb in my mouth, thinking, no,
Speaker 1: you the nigga. This morning, as you're going down, I
Speaker 1: knew that mother. My mother went to the back came
Speaker 1: back with the bucket we used to used to pan
Speaker 1: and because we had an our house, but we were
Speaker 1: pee in a bucket, but if you had to poop,
Speaker 1: you had to cross side. My mother came back with
Speaker 1: that bucket of pissing threw it all over. I was like, well,
Speaker 1: I wanna say that to her. My mother was a
Speaker 1: gangst alpha. She fed us, did whatever she had to do,
Speaker 1: the pipes with breaking that cold Saint Louis weather. We
Speaker 1: would ice, skate on the kitchen floor, run around. You know,
Speaker 1: we didn't know and hadn't empower you with the child
Speaker 1: to damn straight. She got a job. We were off welfare.
Speaker 1: She said, these mothers will not tell me what to
Speaker 1: do with my life and my children. My mother didn't play.
Speaker 1: She taught me work ethics. That's why I'm still here.
Speaker 1: That's why I have sustained and show business. You see,
Speaker 1: not even me can stop me. I was given a
Speaker 1: gift and I honored it, stayed alive, stayed healthy. Look
Speaker 1: at me now, God damn high note, I'm walking in
Speaker 1: my job. Boy, who has the audacity to write a
Speaker 1: book called walking in? How did somebody walk in? Their
Speaker 1: joys were only in five minutes? You has to go?
Speaker 1: But that I don't give about the other interview. I'm
Speaker 1: standing here because I know I'm talking to a lot
Speaker 1: of black kids. Take the question again, how do somebody
Speaker 1: walk into joy? Live on purpose? It's called life? Look

Speaker 1: you were when you're starting right. If anything, it makes
Speaker 1: it worse. And what gives you that joy? What gives
Speaker 1: you the most joy? Is it acting? Is it activism?
Speaker 1: Or is it traveling? Was it something that you haven't mentioned.
Speaker 1: What's more exciting to me right now than anything is
Speaker 1: that I can look at you all and know that
Speaker 1: the only thing I can do for you is live
Speaker 1: my best life. Yes, look at me. I take care
Speaker 1: of myself. You think this is easy. I'm in pilates,

Speaker 1: but Donkey of the Day is a new wife. Hey, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: Donkey to Day for Tuesday, April eleventh goes to United Airlines.
Speaker 1: Is the staff record label airline and mother eff and crew. Okay,
Speaker 1: now I let the record show. I fly Jet Blue.
Speaker 1: I'm a problem, gonna say Amember. And when it comes
Speaker 1: to over booking Jet Blue fliers don't have that problem
Speaker 1: because they don't over book flights. I think over booking
Speaker 1: flights is greedy. I think it's an inconvenience, and I
Speaker 1: wish you would stop. If it's a hundred flights on
Speaker 1: a plane, sell one hundred flights, hundred seats, one hundred seats.
Speaker 1: What did I say, I'm on drugs. If it's one
Speaker 1: hundred seats on a plane, sell one hundred seats. Okay,
Speaker 1: don't do people like that all right, people got places
Speaker 1: to go, people to see. I don't want to spend
Speaker 1: a few hundred dollars on the flight, and then when
Speaker 1: I get there, you're telling me to flight is overbook
Speaker 1: It makes no sense, and it causes unnecessary problems like
Speaker 1: the one we saw yesterday on a United Airlines flight
Speaker 1: headed from Chicago to Louisville. Not a man who has
Speaker 1: not yet been identified by name, of course we all
Speaker 1: know what he looks like by now. He was forcibly
Speaker 1: removed because, according to a statement, the airline said, four
Speaker 1: crew members needed to get to a flight departing from Louisville,
Speaker 1: otherwise it would be canceled. Now, passengers were asked to
Speaker 1: give up their seats voluntarily, and when no one volunteered,
Speaker 1: which is perfectly fine because they don't have to, because
Speaker 1: they paid for their seats like everyone else, and they
Speaker 1: have places to go, and it's not their fault that
Speaker 1: airlines have this dumb ass policy called over booking. Now,
Speaker 1: when no one volunteered to give up the seat they
Speaker 1: paid for, the airline was forced into an involuntary deboarding situation.
Speaker 1: Never heard of that, never heard of. It didn't tell yesterday,
Speaker 1: but I now know that it translates into okay, now
Speaker 1: get the hell off this plane or somebody getting their
Speaker 1: ass beat well. Four passengers were selected to get their
Speaker 1: ass kicked before whatever reason, they decided to only make
Speaker 1: an example out of one, some poor little Asian doctor
Speaker 1: who was minding his business and needed to get home
Speaker 1: to see his patients. When the man refused, as he
Speaker 1: had every right to do. United the Airline said it
Speaker 1: then followed US Department of Transportation protocol and calling in
Speaker 1: local law enforcement to forcibly remove the man from the
Speaker 1: plane after he refused to leave. Would you like to
Speaker 1: hear how it sounded here you go? Come on, come on?
Speaker 1: Where was Kendall Jenna with the PEPSI to give to
Speaker 1: the local law enforcement to calm this situation down? Now?
Speaker 1: United CEO Oscar moona moonas or whatever issue the statement.
Speaker 1: And I must say his statement sucked because Oscar put
Speaker 1: the blame on the victim. Oscar said that the guy
Speaker 1: became more and more disruptive and belligerent when asked to
Speaker 1: come off the aircraft. Dub if I paid for my
Speaker 1: ticket and had somewhere to be, yes, I would be agitated.
Speaker 1: And there's nothing but lligerent about that. Okay, I just
Speaker 1: don't want to get off this flight, and I don't
Speaker 1: understand why the hell you guys are bothering me. This
Speaker 1: is a classic example of someone being completely out of
Speaker 1: touch with regular, everyday people, because I am positive that
Speaker 1: if the CEO of United, Oscar Mouna Us or whatever
Speaker 1: his name was, was sitting on a flight just say
Speaker 1: it wasn't a United flight, just sitting on a flight
Speaker 1: and someone asked him to leave, he would get so
Speaker 1: called disruptive and so called belligerent too. I really wish
Speaker 1: we all would just remember the Golden roll one the
Speaker 1: others that you would have them do. Un to you,
Speaker 1: it's not rocket science, it's not complicated. Okay. Human beings
Speaker 1: should simply give people the energy they want to receive
Speaker 1: that same energy you want back. You would have to
Speaker 1: see me when you come to the window, So you
Speaker 1: gotta have to say at all times, okay, you should
Speaker 1: only be forcibly removed when you have no business in
Speaker 1: the situation whatsoever. When you trust passing, when someone is
Speaker 1: being forcibly removed, that means they did something wrong. They
Speaker 1: have no business being there. What did this guy do
Speaker 1: other than put money in United Da Airlines pocket. He
Speaker 1: had every right to be there because he bought a ticket,
Speaker 1: and if he had somewhere to be and didn't want
Speaker 1: to leave, he had the right to get his rosa
Speaker 1: pox on and say nah and refuse to leave this seat. Okay.
Speaker 1: Also United Airlines common sense. Why wouldn't you account for
Speaker 1: an employee seats first? Isn't that who should be assigned
Speaker 1: seats before anyone else? I mean that would only make
Speaker 1: sense if this man chooses to ride on trash ass
Speaker 1: United Airlines ever again, he should get free for US
Speaker 1: class flights and unlimited snacks for the rest of his life.
Speaker 1: And to think all of this could be avoided if
Speaker 1: airlines simply stopped over booking flights. It's just an inconvenience
Speaker 1: to everybody. Airplane tickets are expensive. When I book a
Speaker 1: flight that should guarantee me a seat, period, I gotta
Speaker 1: receive a busted lip and get dragged off a plane
Speaker 1: because you United to overbooked the flight and didn't have
Speaker 1: room for its employees. That's my fun. Please give you Ninity,
Speaker 1: the Airlines and the CEO Oscar Munas the biggest heat Hofleas.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, well, they was saying that they had
Speaker 1: to this alleged that they had to fly the crew
Speaker 1: in to another city because there was an airliner there
Speaker 1: that didn't have a crew, and if the crew didn't
Speaker 1: make it to that city to fly that next airliner,
Speaker 1: instead of four people being upset, it'd be a plane
Speaker 1: of over one hundred people being upset. That's why they
Speaker 1: had to fly the plane the crew in Alga. What
Speaker 1: does that have to do with me? What happened to
Speaker 1: the customer always being right? What does that have to
Speaker 1: do with me? I'm sitting on this plane mine and
Speaker 1: my damn business. Okay, what what does what does what's
Speaker 1: going on with United and its employees and what crew
Speaker 1: got to be? Where I got to do with me?
Speaker 1: And they said, there's a stipulation when you buy you
Speaker 1: take it that if they need to take it back
Speaker 1: or they need that seat, that they could possibly take it.
Speaker 1: That's what they say. Never heard that stipulation of my life.
Speaker 1: I've never seen that in the fine print. A breakfast club.
Speaker 1: It's topic time phone called eight hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one five want to join it to the discussion with
Speaker 1: the breakfast club? Talk about it. Everybody is DJ and
Speaker 1: V Charlemagne the guy, we are the breakfast club now
Speaker 1: if you just joined us. Charlemagne gave donkey up the
Speaker 1: day to United Airlines. Yeah, United Airlines NN CEO Oscar
Speaker 1: moon Nas or whatever for the way they treated that
Speaker 1: poor Asian doctor on that flight yesterday. And then Oscar
Speaker 1: the CEO had the nerve the victim blame and say
Speaker 1: that the guy was acting belligerent and disruptive if I
Speaker 1: have bought me a ticket right. First of all, it's
Speaker 1: why I hate overbooking on flights. I think overbooking is
Speaker 1: just stupid. If it's one hundred seats, one hundred seas
Speaker 1: is all that it should be, right. But if you
Speaker 1: overbooked the flight and now you need to get somebody
Speaker 1: else on the flight, and I got somewhere to go,
Speaker 1: and you're telling me that I have to get off
Speaker 1: the plane and I don't want to. Why wouldn't I
Speaker 1: get a little disruptive? Absolutely? Why wouldn't I get a
Speaker 1: little agitated? Why wouldn't my voice raine something a little bit?
Speaker 1: That's not being belligerent. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello,
Speaker 1: who's this Hey, Christy from Milwaukee. Have you ever been
Speaker 1: kicked off a flight? Um, No, I have not. I
Speaker 1: suld only taking a flight twice in my life. Oh

Speaker 1: all you getting this local vetus. This is Christy. Hey Chrissy.
Speaker 1: Have you ever been kicked off a flight? I've never
Speaker 1: been kicked off a flight. Over the weekend, I bought
Speaker 1: the hotel room for its year and got to the
Speaker 1: hotel and the hotel didn't I have my reservation already
Speaker 1: paid for, went for like fourteen different hotels after that,
Speaker 1: just to have to sign something that wouldn't really accommodate us.
Speaker 1: With one king size man in Espenia is on the

Speaker 1: After that, I ended up getting a hotel room somewhere else,
Speaker 1: paying for it, you know, like paying for a room twice.
Speaker 1: And because I couldn't deal with you media at the moment,
Speaker 1: and then the next day I ended up called them.
Speaker 1: They did give me like the runaround to through like
Speaker 1: four or five different people, but I got my money refunded.
Speaker 1: And what they did was they like a two hundred
Speaker 1: dollars travel credit on my media account as if I
Speaker 1: want to travel with them again. But you know, hey,
Speaker 1: I guess you're living. You learn, you know, look, and
Speaker 1: you can tell people who don't fly because it just
Speaker 1: dude on Twitter named Mickey Vicious people United dudes should
Speaker 1: have been thrown off the plane. They were gonna pay
Speaker 1: him to leave. They always pay you when they want
Speaker 1: you to volunteer. They give up your seat. Sir, Hello,
Speaker 1: who's that sinking feel about you or something? Gabriel, you
Speaker 1: ever been kicked up a flight before? Yes, I have,
Speaker 1: what happened being too fat, but primarily Na, nah, primarily
Speaker 1: because of my last name. What's your last name? Mohammed yelling?
Speaker 1: What's that means? It's a serial last name? Oh? Got you?
Speaker 1: So they just kicked you off the flight? Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: because they should. They didn't properly check me, so they
Speaker 1: removed me from the plane, made me take all my
Speaker 1: clothes off, you know, check my belt buck or everything
Speaker 1: like that, because you know, my last name was foreign.
Speaker 1: Now this was just Bush era, Obama era or Trump era.
Speaker 1: Oh this is Obama eerr wow? Wow? Wow, this was
Speaker 1: this was Southwest actually wow. Yeah. And and they they
Speaker 1: pretty much that their whole thing was, you know, well,
Speaker 1: we gotta make sure that all of our passengers are safe, this, that,
Speaker 1: and the other. But here's what I want to say
Speaker 1: about that, Because you know, I'm an American, I was
Speaker 1: born in American. I don't care what my last name was.
Speaker 1: I paid for my flight. I did exactly what I
Speaker 1: was supposed to do. I really, I really felt violated
Speaker 1: at that point. You know, yeah, I wouldn't have got
Speaker 1: off that plane and I would have sued the ish
Speaker 1: out of them. And I'm gonna be honest with you, man,
Speaker 1: you deserve better than life the Southwest. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: definitely not a big gass bust in discust, not like Southwest.
Speaker 1: I listened. I ain't no boogie individual at all. But
Speaker 1: I don't want to get on no plane where you
Speaker 1: could just pick you on seat. I'm sorry, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't. The first time he went to Charlotte, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: had the best a line. I never had a line.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you even feel like telling that
Speaker 1: lot eight hundred five eight five one O five one.
Speaker 1: Have you ever got kicked off a flight before? Colvis?
Speaker 1: Now it is the breakfast club. Call me your opinions
Speaker 1: to the Breakfast Club top five one five one that
Speaker 1: was Drake with Fake Love Morning. Everybody is dj en
Speaker 1: ve angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Now if you just joined us, we're asking have you
Speaker 1: ever got kicked off off flight? That it comes from
Speaker 1: Charlemagne given United Donkey of the Day. They kicked this
Speaker 1: gentleman off really for no reason, for no reason, and
Speaker 1: this dude it was because of overbooking and he didn't
Speaker 1: want to voluntary leave, so they had for him forcibly removed.
Speaker 1: But a young lady on Twitter said to me, Hey
Speaker 1: see the god on my way to work. Her name
Speaker 1: is at Voodoo Dog. She said, you just said, I quote,
Speaker 1: nobody's pulling me off a plane. You show about that, pumpkin.
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely sure that you're not pulling me off the plane.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave. You know. You know what you're talking to,
Speaker 1: Voodoo Doll. She's pulling you off the plane. But I'm
Speaker 1: gonna leave. And the reason I'm gonna leave because I
Speaker 1: thought the video of what they did to this Asian man.
Speaker 1: So either we're gonna fight or I'm just gonna walk
Speaker 1: off the plane. Hello who's this good morning? Hey? I
Speaker 1: know you don't want to say your name. Now you
Speaker 1: know my name is Michelle the morning. Oh okayy Michelle.
Speaker 1: Well then you work for United. So here's here's my
Speaker 1: story with United. I've been a Star Alliance member for
Speaker 1: years and I haven't had to be removed from a plane.
Speaker 1: But unfortunately I am that that frequent flier who shows
Speaker 1: up and someone else has to be removed because I've
Speaker 1: actually shown up. But what I saw yesterday, it's so appalling.
Speaker 1: Shout out to you guys for giving them donkey of
Speaker 1: the day. The entire crew of flight thirty four eleven
Speaker 1: and the Department of Transportation Chicago or hairs entire um
Speaker 1: what do they call them? You know? The law enforcement,
Speaker 1: the law enforcement exactly that they have on right. All
Speaker 1: of them deserve it because no one should be treated
Speaker 1: that way. And you can't help but to bring race
Speaker 1: into the equation. Would they have treated someone who was
Speaker 1: a lot larger? Would they have treated the seamail this way?
Speaker 1: The fact that they um the over excess of force?
Speaker 1: So Charlemagne, I couldn't agree with you more. Where's the
Speaker 1: pepsi at both United others? You know? Um, and they
Speaker 1: actually carried coat products, but they might as well start
Speaker 1: carrying United PETI products on those flights. Let me ask
Speaker 1: you one question, baby, Let let me ask you a question.
Speaker 1: Since you have the preferred membership or whatever, would you
Speaker 1: even want the seat after seeing how do you know? No?
Speaker 1: You know what? I actually I would love to find
Speaker 1: an airline who I can like, um, you know, transfer
Speaker 1: my mileage and and and you know, I honestly I
Speaker 1: have to always have apply to the West Coast, specifically
Speaker 1: San Francisco, and they are a hub for United. But
Speaker 1: after what they've gone through to what they did this weekend, no,
Speaker 1: absolutely not. I'd rather I looking for a shopping around
Speaker 1: for a new carrier. And the other thing regarding there,
Speaker 1: I can't remember the rule right now, but from an
Speaker 1: operational age issue, they could have played either the passengers
Speaker 1: or their own crew on another carrier to get them
Speaker 1: out to Louis Delta meet. You use a smaller plane
Speaker 1: and you charter your flight for your crew to get
Speaker 1: where you need to get to. But that is an
Speaker 1: operational issue from their special control. Absolutely, thank you, Michelle,
Speaker 1: You're very well. Thank you, Michelle. Hello, who's this? Hello? Hey?
Speaker 1: What's your name, you know my name? Tone, nice man, queen,
Speaker 1: stand up to how big are you? Sound like? You
Speaker 1: got that same energy at all times? I got the
Speaker 1: same energy all day. Money goes all day. How much
Speaker 1: do you wait? Tone, you'll listen, You'll know I'm a
Speaker 1: fetting if you folm playing, maybe three four hundred pounds
Speaker 1: something like that. The type of person we would hate
Speaker 1: to sit by on a plane. And they could never
Speaker 1: forcibly remove you because you're too big. No, no, listen,
Speaker 1: I ain't that big. I don't look that big a person.
Speaker 1: Do you fly? What class do you fly? Cargo? Stop? Man,
Speaker 1: you got kicked up a flight because away listen, I'm in.
Speaker 1: I'm in Jamaica. I'm coming back to Queens, Jamaica. Yo,
Speaker 1: ya know, Jamaican people rule. Joe the Lady, come up
Speaker 1: to medio. Listen, because everybody else comfortability. We might not
Speaker 1: fit you on the plane. I just flew in. I
Speaker 1: just got in. They're like, nah, you ain't good, so
Speaker 1: later we might have to get you a new ticket,
Speaker 1: but you gotta pay two hundreds. Yeah, listen, I missed
Speaker 1: my flight three times. They don't wanna let me on. No, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: you missed your flight three times. Three hundred pounds. Man,
Speaker 1: you missed your flight three times because you needed three seats.
Speaker 1: All right, let's be clear about I have seen that.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen. I haven't seen him get big people
Speaker 1: and tell them to go on the other side of
Speaker 1: the plane before. You never see that before. Hey, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you, y'all know I have no
Speaker 1: remorse for this one whatsoever. I'm down with everybody. But
Speaker 1: if you're fat and you're on the plane, he either
Speaker 1: buy three seats or stop complaint. All right, get three
Speaker 1: seat belts. Hello, Who's this is? Nick? And Houston? How
Speaker 1: you got? All right? Nick? Now tell us what you said.
Speaker 1: We're looking at this all wrong. Yeah, yeah, I kind
Speaker 1: of feel like so. So I worked for a competitive airline,
Speaker 1: and while I would love to say this is all
Speaker 1: United Foot, a part of me feels like it's not because,
Speaker 1: I mean, if you think about it, it wasn't United
Speaker 1: police that came on the plane and removed this guy, right, So, like,
Speaker 1: if you think about it this way, somebody walked into
Speaker 1: the breakfast club. You guys asked him to leave, he
Speaker 1: doesn't leave, You call the police. The police come in there.
Speaker 1: Rip them out of that. The guys has a heart
Speaker 1: attack on the way out. His thing. We tried to
Speaker 1: shoot the breakfast club, right is the is it? Y'all
Speaker 1: fought that the man died when the police came and
Speaker 1: got him out. By the way. By the way, let's
Speaker 1: talk about all the people who have been forcibly removed
Speaker 1: from the Breakfast Club, because it's been some few it's
Speaker 1: been a couple of people come into building. People that
Speaker 1: get forcibly removed from here, deserve to get forcibly removed
Speaker 1: from here because they're probably trying to assault me, right,
Speaker 1: all right, okay, and we throw them out first and
Speaker 1: then the police because these these are people that are
Speaker 1: actually doing something wrong. So that's a terrible example. This
Speaker 1: guy wasn't doing anything wrong. He was a paid customer. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: think about it. Think about it, though, If somebody comes
Speaker 1: into the breakfast club and they're trying to hurt you,
Speaker 1: they breaking the breakfast club policy. The fact of the
Speaker 1: matter is is that you really are agreeing to being
Speaker 1: able to be removed if asked to make room for
Speaker 1: for employees, for for airline employees. It's part of the policy.
Speaker 1: Don't you can't you can't. He shouldn't be forcibly removed. Oh,
Speaker 1: my brother, like, there's no reason to be forcibly removed.
Speaker 1: I understand that. But but it wasn't United that forcibly
Speaker 1: removed the guys. My point. He said, it was the police.
Speaker 1: He said they did. You're right with that, but but
Speaker 1: it's still it's definitely bad off you. Thank you, you're right,
Speaker 1: but it's bad py off of you that it's horrible
Speaker 1: p off of United. All right, well, what's the moral
Speaker 1: of the story. But the moral of the stories? I
Speaker 1: heard a great quote one time by a guy named
Speaker 1: Steve Doffman. He sai that the customer is not always right,
Speaker 1: but your job is never to show them how they're wrong.
Speaker 1: Your job is to be professional, courteous, accommodating, and to
Speaker 1: demonstrate emotional maturity, even and especially under scress. I saw
Speaker 1: United or the law enforcement not be professional, not be courteous,
Speaker 1: not be accommodating. They definitely didn't demonstrate any emotional maturity.
Speaker 1: And that was a scressful situation, and they failed miserably.
Speaker 1: It's a breakfast local money, the breakfast club. The positive notice.
Speaker 1: Simply getting your stuff together requires a level of honesty
Speaker 1: you can't even imagine. There's nothing easier about realizing you're
Speaker 1: the one that's been holding you back this whole time.
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, Y'll finish it. Y'all dumb,
