I want to shine a light on this person because
the other day I saw mc light and she had
on these earrings. And these earrings are actually uh the
earrings from Ello Coolj's wife, Simone Smith. You know, she
has her line of a lot of door knocker earrings

(02:17):
and I've got quite a few peers, Yes, yes, Lisa Angela,
Pamela Renee. But anyway, she definitely has created this line
of products because she told Black Enterprise that she saw
that there was a lack of good quality hoops. And
she's right about that because I know for myself, every
time I want to got to get some new earrings,

(02:37):
I'm like, I need some new hoops.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Every woman needs to have a pair of hoops.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
And Michael Jordan as well, Yeah too.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
I was going to say, so, I just want to
shout out to her with that. And she's done a
lot of great collaborations. She collaborated with Mesa Hilton, with
Mary J. Blige and those are really like her friends
and so what I always feel like, it's great to
be able to do work with your friends. And she
also has an annual event called Sismas as well, so
it's a themed celebration of sisterhood and fun. It's from

(03:06):
around the way Girl meets Bridgeton, So congratulations to her.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
Awesome me She's from Queens as well.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
So yes, all right, Well, who do you guys want
to shine a light on? Eight hundred and two nine
two fifty one fifty jadsman, who you want to shine.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
A light on?

Speaker 8 (03:20):
My seventeen year old boy?

Speaker 3 (03:22):
Okay, talk to us.

Speaker 8 (03:23):
He has ADHD and it's hard to him to like
get accepted. And here it is. He stepped out his
boundaries and started working. And even though it might be
difficult for him, I'm proud of him.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Oh what's he been doing? What type of work?

Speaker 8 (03:39):
He's working with lumber and steaming wood and paints and stains.
So he's learning and I'm just happy that he's just
not gonna be this little boy and he's learning how
to be a man because of his time.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Okay, all right, well I love it. What's shout out
to him and shout out to you. I know that's
not easy for you either, So I'm glad to see
that he's doing productive things.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
And it feels good.

Speaker 8 (04:03):
Yes, thank you, thank you, Jasmine.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
All right, well that was shine a light eight hundred
and two nine two fifty one fifty. If you couldn't
get through and you still want to shine a light
and when we come back, we have your yee t
and Nelly, Oh my gosh, beat out, I know you
saw that mugs out yesterday. But we'll clear up some
of the rumors about Reddie getting arrested for that ecstasy
or right his way up, Yo, she's about.

Speaker 7 (04:25):
To blow the lid ab off this spot. Let's get it.

Speaker 6 (04:27):
Oh yeah, Angelus feeling that yet, come.

Speaker 7 (04:30):
And get the tea.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
All right his way up, I'm here, beat outs here
and let's get into this yet immediately.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Let's do it all right.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
So Nelly, he was allegedly yesterday arrested for ecstasy possession
and they also said he didn't have any insurance and
he had an active warrant for feeling to have insurance
during a.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Previous traffic stop.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Well, according to Nelly's attorney, they did not find any
ecstasy on him. He told TMZ that he was targeted
by an overzealous out of line office and he said
that Nelly had won a major jackpot at the casino,
an officer that allegedly falsely claim they needed to run
a background check before giving him his winnings. That's when
they learned he had an active warrant for failing to

(05:11):
have insurance, but that warrant was from twenty eighteen, a
traffic stop from twenty eighteen, and Nelly had no idea
about it. And so Nelly also has not been charged
your drug possession according to his attorney, and he has.
But we see Nelly hasn't addressed this yet.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
Right, they set him up.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, that's terrible. You know the police department does like
press too, they.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Do, they do. I saw his mugshot. He didn't have
a haircut. I believe.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Oh that's the worst feeling for you.

Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yes, I think haircuts prevent crimes because no one's trying
to get caught up go to jail if you got
a fresh cut.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
But you know what though, if you don't have a cut, Yeah,
then maybe you don't want to take a mug shot.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
During that time.

Speaker 4 (05:50):
See even better, a lot of.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
People who have to take their hat off, and it's like, whoa,
I didn't know that's what that person looked like without
a hat on.

Speaker 4 (05:57):
If you get a cut, I'm not trying to go
to jail.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
All right.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
So yes, so, and this is just like following t
I getting falsely arrested at the airport. People thought he
was somebody else named Clifford Clifford Harris.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
It's conspiracy.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
I'll tell you all right, Big Sean's album has been
pushed back. Oh god, okay, you are right. He said
he has to push it back a little bit. Music's done,
but just organizing listening events shows. He said he might
need an extra week or two to plan a week
back in the day, remember when you have to really
put your album out on that date because it was

(06:31):
literal CDs.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, and now you can.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Just be like, you know what, I'm going to push
it back or you know what, We're I'm going to
surprise drop it early.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
So he doesn't have a definitive date yet.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, he said a week or two, so we'll see
or two. But I'll tell you what is definitely coming back.

Speaker 7 (06:44):
Kreisha Please.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Oh she posted I think it's time hashtag Korisha Please.
And there's a picture of that set as well. So
it's coming back. We don't know the date, but it
looks like it's going to be on Revolt TV again.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Okay, all right.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Nicki Minaj is going to be taking several fans out
to dinner and also having a studio session with them.
I saw this on the Jazzmine brand all right, she said.
Beginning today, I'll begin a seven day Gag City Raffle,
and the prizes will include one of the following, a
dinner with me and twenty five winners, a studio session
with me and twenty winners, a Gag City upgrade backstage

(07:18):
lounge passes to thirty two winners, and it's open to
every country and anybody allowed to travel to the US.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
Wow. I like that approach.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Maybe you should take some fans out some way up fans,
you know, take them out for salads with flies in it.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
I did that already and I guess what the guy got.
It's a free meal.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yes, we did it was you? Yes?

Speaker 3 (07:36):
All right, well that is your Yet when we come back, we.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Have about last night. That's where we discussed what we
did last night. If you look at my steroy, you
can see I was at Tatiana's last night. We'll discuss that,
and then I went to go see my boy Donnell
Rawlings in Brooklyn at two seventy five Park. That is
Ray Dejon's club, his comedy club in Brooklyn. We'll talk
about it and we'll find out what you did last night,
because I saw you do and your best split ster impersonation.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
I was being Mary Adams. I was being Mixy, testing
the product of the city.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Okay, all right, and also getting us all garbage bins.
I love it all right, its way up.

Speaker 6 (08:13):
So about last night I went down.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
I hate arguing.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
We beat out about music every day, all right, his
way up. I'm here beat outs here because I'm right, Angelia.
There's no right about what song is a great album?
I mean, what album's great? Yes, it's a matter of opinion. Well,
your subjective opinion is objectively unpopular.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Anyway, any way, so what did you do last night?
Talk to us about it? I saw some videos of you,
like wrapping or something on the micro.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
I wasn't raping.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
I was hosting last night, a host of a listening
session for Larry June his new album Doing It for Me,
which drops this Friday. So yeah, I was out there
shaking hands and cracking the mic.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
Arie Melbourne was there shaking your booty, yo, come on
see you.

Speaker 5 (09:00):
That was Tuesday. I remember was there except fird Graph

yellow one two one two.

Speaker 5 (09:10):
Yeah, you could check that out on my Instagram, b
dot TM Okay, check me out.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yesterday I was at Tatiana's. You know, I love that restaurant.
It's one of the top restaurants in a nation.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
I wouldn't know. I can't get in in the world.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Oh well, you were with Larry June. Yeah, I could
have came. They definitely wouldn't have been a fly in
your food at Tatiana's. I can tell you that right now,
just like there was the other day when we went out.
But my friend Ingrid, you know, she has her I Best.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Wine Award winning wine award.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Winning Gold Medal Award winning wine, her white wine, and.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
So she was able to host.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
And I was one of the hosts last nights at Tatiana's.
It's very hard to get a reservation there, months and
months and months and evat in evance. When I tell you,
so many people text me yesterday like can you get
me in? Can you get me in?

Speaker 3 (09:54):
I'm like, I don't know how the food tasted. You
to bring a doggy bag. I should have bought you
guys some food.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
I would have been nice.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
And he doesn't do to go really Yeah, I asked
him why because when ray J was in town, his
when he was with Princess Love. She loved the food
there so much. She wanted to get something to go,
and he was like, I don't do that.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
So after your finish, you can't take it home.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
No, you could take it down, but you can't order takeout. Takeout,
you can't order anything to go because that's not what
his food is meant to be consumed in that manner.
Then I went to two seventy five Park to see
Donell Rawlings. He was headlining Oh Nice last night in Brooklyn.
Shout out to Rage de Jon, So of course if
Donell's in Brooklyn, I'm a be there too. And when

(10:33):
I tell you he tore it down, people were standing up.
They gave him a standing ovation wow, and they were
laughing so hard.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
It was very interactive. So shout out to Donell Rowlings.
That is my guy.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
He used to live in Brooklyn. That's when I first
met him. Fida Chappelle show.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
Does he have a special coming out soon too?

Speaker 2 (10:51):
That's hilarious that I was there when he filmed that
too Nice all right, and he's going to be somewhere
special for me. We're going to have a major announcement
when we come back. So let's talk about it. It
involves all of us. Okay, it's way up.

Speaker 3 (11:07):

Speaker 6 (11:09):
Foh you're tapped in the way up with Angela Yee.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Yes, it is way up with Angela Yee.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
I'm here, beat outs here and I told you guys,
I have a big announcement. And so they're so mad
at me because I've been like lightweight announcing this already
and mentioning it. But you know, uh, to start it off,
the West Indian Day Parade is going to be on
September second, right Labor Day.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Yeah, that's Labor Day.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
And so I've always wanted to do my Angela Yee
Day right before Labor Day, kind of like a Ye
Day Juve right, run you like that. I came up
with that Ey Day Juve celebration and Angela Yu Day.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
I got that day in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
The mayor of New York City at that time, Bill
de Blasio, made August twenty eighth Angela Ye Day.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
But what we decided after that was every year.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
We do this event, and I want to do it
on a weekend instead of doing it during the weekend
is just easier and so in the past we've had
some amazing performances, you know, people like Hood celebrity Christopher Martin,
Cranium Scarlet. So many people have come out to celebrate
angela Ye Day, some huge, huge artist Alison Hines, a

(12:20):
lot of Caribbean artists you know as well. So this
year we are back at the Barclay Center outside in
conjunction with the Social Justice Fund and iHeartMedia of course,
and September one is.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
The day.

Speaker 7 (12:41):
For Angelae Day.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Everything is free. You come out there, you get all
kinds of free things. I'm not allowed to announce specifics yet,
but you'll be really excited about who's going to be
there because I know I'm excited and.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
It's free and it's free. That's my favorite f work.
I thought it was something else. It's free.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
Well, yes, everything is free and people can get tickets.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
It's like that.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
You have to get a ticket still, but it's free,
so you have to make sure you go and get
those tickets. The tickets will be free. It's a family day,
kid friendly. You might've heard some curses in the past.
This year it's not.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
We've got to have conversations with everybody.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
But what I love is that people do want to
come out and support the community as well. So a
lot of the artists come out and they do things,
you know, at a different rate or not, you know,
than they would for anybody else.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
We do some barters, but whatever.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
We get people out there for free so the community
can see them, touch them, talk to them, take pictures
with them, and that's what it's all about, you know.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
So I'm excited.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
That's awesome where I'm from in Brooklyn, Angela Ye Day.
Shout out to Greg Bishop, who is the person that
definitely initiated moving it there. We've done it at Restoration
Plaza in the past, which I love. Also great space
as well, and I'm sure I'll be doing some things
with them in the future. But again, Ye Day, Angela,
Ye Day, Ye Day.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
It's September first at the Barclays, So make your plans

to be a good time.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
How should someone celebrate Angela y Day? You know, do
you have to come brand gifts like that to come
bring a schnelle back to you?

Speaker 2 (14:08):
There's some community service or donate to charity that's what
we like to do, all right, well right now, diamonds.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
You can bring diamonds too.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
That sounds core. Ordered.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Here's Rihanna diamonds and we got yet when we come back.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
Its way up.

Speaker 6 (14:19):
It's the rooms from industry shade to all of us
and out Angela's feeling that.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
EyeT, yeah, it's way up. I'm here and beat outs
here give there's beat out. Give me that et, Angela,
all right, I got you. Here's some yet.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
So Miss Lauren Hill, you know her tour was canceled,
the Fuji's Tour say no, yeah, just a couple of
days before it was set to start, and she did
post an explanation. People did get their refunds, though the
shows in the UK and Europe are moving forward as planned,
she said. Last year, she faced an injury that necessitated
the rescheduling of some of her shows. Regrettably, some media outlets,

(14:57):
penchant for sensationalism and clickbait head lines have seemingly created
a narrative that has affected ticket sales for the North
American portion of the tour. The trust and faith I
have in my intentions and my commitment to my art
seem to have been I'm overshadowed by this unfortunate portrayal.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
Oh my gosh, it's social media for huh.

Speaker 5 (15:15):
It's not her coming four hours late to shows and
you know, not performing at a highest level.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
You went to school with Lauren Hill, right, Yeah, I
have nothing bad to say about Lauren Hill.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Okay I do. Oh was she ever late to class?

Speaker 3 (15:26):
No?

Speaker 2 (15:27):
She actually was extremely extremely smart, gotcha? So yeah, And
I will say, we don't know what type of injury
she had that necessitated the rescheduling of some of her shows,
but yeah, I mean I get it. When things like
that happen, people will be like, I don't know if
she's going to show up. I don't know if it's

(15:48):
going to happen, and it will lead to people being like, oh,
I don't know if I should do it. But the
Fujis is iconic. I'm sure people would want to go
see them. And in the UK and in Europe, everything
seems to be going well.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
I've been silently protesting Lauren Hill for twenty five years.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
It was one album. It was one album.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
What you protested the album when it was one of us?
It's a great album, but it was one album. Let's
move on. Like, what else have you done for me?
In the fujis Cool story?

Speaker 2 (16:15):
And then she did the MTV Live that unplugged beat
all right, beat U. She's extremely talented, and the fact
that people are still going to see her and she
still is selling out shows, and that album is something
that has never been recreated, like something that I feel
like a lot of people put up on a pedestal.
A lot of other female rappers and rappers in general

(16:39):
really looked to Lauren Hill as.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Like that blueprints they do.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
I'm just saying, but don't say, don't act like she
didn't have Fuji's albums too.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
They went solo and that's what happened. She doesn't perform
the songs the way we heard them.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
And unfortunately, a lot of times the business gets in
the word, oh.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
The business, the social media, and I mean the business.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
There's people, we artists who haven't put out projects because
of the business aspect of things.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Right, it's been two decades, all right, Kanye West, here's
somebody you really like.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
He's battling a potentially fatal addiction to niteous oxide that's
being supplied by his dentist. According to his former chief
of staff, Milo how do you say his name, Yanapolis?
I know you know well, Kanye's dentist is denying these claims.
By the way, he said that that is not true,
and in a statement he also said that it's not

(17:28):
only factually incorrect, but also intentionally misleading and that yeah, so.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Kanye's getting high of for whippets.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Laughing ass that's why he has such a great sense
of humor. Us all right now, I feel like I
need to be watching this surreal life and Macy Gray
is the person that is getting all the viral clips.
Ot Genesis was talking about Macy Gray and how she
makes certain sexual noises in her sleep.

Speaker 7 (17:52):
Everything is just like sexual, you know what I mean,
And she'd be like owning in her sleep like she
havn't said.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
I don't know if you heard it, we hear it,
so Ot Genesis on their chat Hanks is on air.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
I mean, this feels like a good time.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
And if you recall, she went viral for also talking
about how she likes to recreationally sometimes do drugs. Yeah,
and she also last week was rushed to the hospital
in a wheelchair. Her ozempic caused breathlessness and left her
unable to walk.

Speaker 4 (18:24):
I didn't know what zipa could do that and.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Then also caused constipation. I thought it was just a
cure for fatness. All right, well that beat ut.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Sorry anyway, that is your yet when we come back,
we have under the radar. These are some of the
stories that are flying under the radar, but you definitely
need to know about them.

Speaker 3 (18:39):
It's way up the news.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
This in the news that relates to you. These stories
are flying under the radar.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
It's way up. I'm here beat outs here. All right,
let's get into these under the radar stories. Now, Costco
is cracking down on people using membership cars that aren't there.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
So now they're going to chat. They call it membership moochers.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Okay, so they're going to have a stricter policies and
crack down on non members using other people's cars. They're
going to require shoppers to scan their membership cards to
enter stores, and then you have to scan your physical
or digital membership card. And then for members with cars
that don't have a photo, you have to come prepared
with a valid photo ID.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
I'm gonna have to co in a Costco with a
wig man. I use other people's memberships all the time.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
What about it if you just go with somebody who
has a membership, that's a good question.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
Yeah, you can just do that.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Have you ever gone to one of those you know
how they have the supermarkets, but you have to what
are they called again, you have to have a membership
and you have to work there a co op. Really, yeah,
they have the supermarket co ops. So the prices are
a lot cheaper, but you also have to work a
certain amount of hours every month in order to be
a member, and you can't even bring anybody.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
In with you, so it's like an employee discount kind of.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
Yes, that's what the whole story is.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
So even to be a member of a co op,
you have to be able to you have to work,
say it's fifteen hours a month, so you got to
like bag groceries, work the register, stock whatever it is.
And then that's how they keep it going.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
So it's like an internship hazing process.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
It's like community. It's like a community thing, all right.
Mark Cuban has a startup. Well it's a Mark Cuban
back startup that's coming to New Jersey and it's a
new way to kick opioid addiction. So this company got
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in New Jersey's state
budget to start a remote methadone pilot program in the state,

(20:31):
so you'll be able to take methadone at home while
being monitored by a clinician. A lot of times patients
have to go to a clinic to get their daily
methadone dough. So this way it will get people to
have more access, make it convenient. Yeah, they make it
more convenient, right, Okay for you? All right, we all
know that's a really hard addiction for people to kick
as well, so that'll be beneficial in many ways.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
All right, Well, that is you're under the radar.

Speaker 2 (20:56):

mix at the top of the hour, plus special guests

Speaker 3 (22:04):

walk away with some free firework mess garra and extraordinary lashes.
So thank you to everybody who came out. You can
get your own new firework mess garra from Mabelene at Walmart, Target,
or wherever you get your favorite Mabelene products. You know,
I tried it and Honestly, I'm always trying to make

(22:27):
my lashes look longer so I don't always have to
put on lashes, and this really does it for me.
So shout out to Mabelene mass Gara. Firework mess Garra.
And when we come back, I have your et. Let's

quite a scare, so we'll talk about it. It's way up,

(22:49):
of gossip out angelas feeling that EyeT.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
All right, it's way up. I'm here, beat outs here.
Well it was beat on here.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
I'm here et times. So we told you earlier. Young
Miami has announced.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
The return of Kresha please.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
Well there's also a teaser now, and it looks like
she's ready to address all of the ditty allegations.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
Here's what that sounds like.

Speaker 10 (23:11):
Well, all of these allegations that lawsuits came apart.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Why didn't you speak?

Speaker 9 (23:17):
I said, I was supposed tell my truth.

Speaker 4 (23:19):
What was your experience, like, you know, dating him?

Speaker 3 (23:23):
I don't really feel like you addressed everything.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
It's good that Saucy is it, because first of all,
I know Saucy knows the answers already, right, but he
also it's her friend, and so that's a hard conversation
I'm sure to have.

Speaker 5 (23:35):
It's interesting because like I wrestled with this whole Diddy thing,
you know, like on a human level, do you think
he's worthy of redemption or like a second chancel to
the public?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Guy, I can't tell who people should forgive and not forgive. Right,
You know that that video was triggering for a lot
of people. It was, and so some people will never
ever And I think it's not just that. It's a
lot of different things and a lot of different stories
that we're hearing, Yeah, and a lot of different questions
that still have to get answered.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
That's true, all right.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Now, Carti B revealed that she almost suffered a miscarriage,
and she said she had a freak accident. She revealed
this on x and not ecstasy as in Twitter. Clear, sorry,
all right, here's what she said.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
I had a freak accident. So the point I was
literally paralyzed.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
And that little thing almost cost me for my little
one to come.

Speaker 7 (24:26):
But it didn't.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Listen.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
That's scary, scary timing for something real to go left,
And Cardi B also has trademarked some things that people
are saying could be possible titles of her album, defamition
of character and intrusive thoughts.

Speaker 5 (24:43):
I remember when we interviewed her a couple of years ago,
she was pondering the idea of naming it Tiger Woods
because she remember there was a commercial with about Dowders
and stuff like that Tiger Woods was the center of it.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
So she may know had a song called Tiger Woods
when I Bring Okay. And then lastly, the Kamala Harris
campaign has denied that they ever reached out to Kays
and not to collaborate. If you recall, just a couple
of days ago, he did this very angry, screamy stream
where he talked about how the Secret Service has been
contacting him.

Speaker 8 (25:16):
I got the.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
I don't know, Hey, I'm gonna keep it a sack.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
I'm gonna go ahead and say it.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
I don't give them all right.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
So the team is saying they haven't had any conversation
about Kays and I interviewing Kamala Harris and they said
that talks with him were initiated prior to President Biden
dropping out of the election, and that at this up
to this point, no one from her campaign has been
a part of those conversations, and so maybe as a
third party organization with informal ties to the DNC's convention

(25:53):
team that had been talking to him. And I will say,
there's a lot of moving parts when it comes to this.
There is a lot of people speaking on behalf of
people connecting people with people. They were just doing an
event in Detroit yesterday and I know there's like people
on the ground there that are connected to the team.
There's people all over the place, so you know, who
knows who contacted them, but maybe it wasn't her team directly.

(26:17):
And by the way, go get those Kamala for Everybody
t shirts. I saw they made those Detroit versus Everybody.
Now they have the Kamala for Everybody shirts that you
can get to actually support the campaign. All right, well
that is your ut and we do have I Octane
joining us today. Also, let's get into some biggie right now.

(26:39):
Let's shout out to Brooklyn. We have asked ye on
the way as well. Eight hundred fifty but you know,
one more chance, maybe.

Speaker 6 (26:47):
Not, but it's relationship with career advice. Angela's dropping facts.
This is as gee, what's up? His way up?

Speaker 2 (26:55):
But Angela, yee, I'm here and my guy beat out
his You ready to get some advice?

Speaker 4 (27:00):
Of course?

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Okay, well today for ask ye, we have Unique on
the line.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
What's up? Unique?

Speaker 7 (27:06):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (27:06):
Angela, Hey, it's May and beat at what's your question.

Speaker 10 (27:10):
I've been on the hunt on the dating scene. I've
been around like my friend's boyfriend friends. I liked him
at first, so I decided to give any chance, went
on a date with him. But he's given very weird
or vies. So I don't know how to move forward.
Since it's kind of an inevitable I'm going to run

(27:32):
into him.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
What was so weird? Like what? I'm just curious what happened?

Speaker 10 (27:37):
Just the way he talked, just the way he moves.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
It's just like I hate his face.

Speaker 10 (27:44):
Yeah, it's just not giving, you know.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
It's just it was a good idea until it happens.
So is he harassing you still?

Speaker 10 (27:52):
Or he definitely is? Like he just sent me an
aggressive spect have indead And I was like.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Oh no, so yeah, we don't like aggressive text messages.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
Did you know him prior?

Speaker 10 (28:05):
I'm not a little bit like I said fun boyfriends
friend so like, I've seen him around, but nothing nothing serious.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
All right, Well, first of all, you will i'm sure,
running to him at times, but probably not too much.
If I was you, I would just tell my friend
what happened, and if there's a way to keep it cordial,
do that.

Speaker 3 (28:25):
But you don't owe anybody an explanation.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
It just didn't work out, and you know, nothing happened
is nothing that serious. So I think you just keep
it cordial. Eventually he'll go and be weird to somebody else.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
Sometimes I think.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
The direct approach works. You got to rip the band
aid off and say, hey, bro, you're weird.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
No, don't do that. Why not it's rude to just
be like, hey, bro, you're weird.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
I think you'll get the picture.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Yeah, just be I think you can because she's going
to run into him.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
So I think just being cordial, like, yeah, you know,
it wasn't really a good fit for me, but you're
still cool and I'm sure i'll see you around, so
let's keep it cordial. That's a nice way to do it,
unless he did unless he did something rude, you know,
But I don't think that's necessary.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
One person's weird as another person's.

Speaker 10 (29:07):
Normal, So I like that cordial.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Just keep it cordial.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
He didn't do nothing crazy to you, so I think,
you know you can give him that, And then it's
also nice to not make it awkward for everybody else.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
He seems like a sensitive guy. Is he a sensitive guy?

Speaker 10 (29:24):
That's a vibe I'm getting and I'm like sensitive.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
You see, we don't know what we want.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
But also tell your friend give me a heads up
if he's going to be there, so I could be prepared,
so I know, you know, get my get my woosa
ready in.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
The pepper spray, too.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
Heavy on the pepper spray. All right, well, thank you.

Speaker 9 (29:43):
Unique, Thank you so much.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Angela, no problem. Unique unique, she's unique, rather unique unique
dating experience. All right.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Well that was asky and we're corny. Eight hundred fifty
one fifty. If you couldn't get through, you could leave
a message. Will still take your call that way and
when we come back, I obtained it's going to be
joining us. And don't take no dating advice from this guy.
Oh maybe now he's grown, but he's got some stories
and write his way up.

Speaker 8 (30:26):
Well.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
First of all, I've been following your journey, yes, for
quite some time, and I know you had moved from
Jamaica to South Florida, Yes, and talked about how.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
And it's interesting to me because.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
I feel like you are very perceptive about things about
yourself that is sometimes hard for people to admit or
or say out loud, right.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
But you felt like it was necessary for you to
do that.

Speaker 9 (30:48):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, because if you don't speak of
when they need to speak, then who's going to speak
for you? I remember, no one know what you're really
going to our. No one seat from your perspective, you
know what I mean? So I process things. I look
from that perspective and just looking to myself, and the
more I become a better person, then I am better

(31:10):
for society.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
Right, So you're not like yeah less anymore?

Speaker 9 (34:47):
Yeah, my big up Vibes guard that Lamb one of
the big guardians who went to visit. I used to
the jail system and I understand, and I understand because
for me, I leave Jamaica for a while because then
you had to put me in prison. Like so that's
why you laugh that one of the reasons because they're

(35:07):
saying that acting have these type of friends and involving
a this anime of these type of people are friends,
and that type of people are friends, and these type
of people are friends.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
I'm from the Garrison.

Speaker 9 (35:18):
I don't buy Garrison people guns. I don't buy you know,
there's no individual in Jamaica which is that done can
have us say involving any criminal activities. Yes here, Dan
will know what you do. You know what you have
to do to worn the community. But you're a human
being at first, and you have other things. A lot

(35:39):
of people from the Garrison community that is involving in
crime of violence, they call I want to go into music.
I said, that is what you should do with the time. Yeah,
a lot of them. I'm the first one who turned

But so when you're burke in, no society want to
take you away. In Jamaica, having this bringing thing that
is going on where society take the most important people
from the lower class and isolate them and keep the
lower class suppress. So they want to take me away.
