Speaker 5 (01:06):
I took the wife to see a Broadway play called Outsiders. Nice,
so we didn't get home until about midnight. We were
watching the play. Then after the play, the writer said
he wanted to perform for people, so he started performing songs.
And I didn't want to leave in the middle because
everybody's sitting there watching it.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
But he had just performed. Then he wanted to perform again.

Speaker 5 (01:25):
There they wanted to perform songs. So the play is over.
If everybody's cheering, it's a great show. If you get
a chance to definitely check out Outsiders. Great great, great play.
It's about this blast in the nineteen sixties. It's like
West Side Story. But after it was over, he wanted
to perform again.

too as well. Last night met y'all great, great, great
team up. Remember they came up here a couple of
days ago. Yeah, yeah, they came up here, so slew
through the cast of The Lion King. Broadway is tough, man,
because you don't get no, you don't get no redo
on that stage, okay. And if they do mess up,
we have no idea. No, they just go right through it.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
Like yesterday there was a guy he was he was
doing his thing and he just started laughing. He broke
character a little bit and the crowd just started laughing
because you know it.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah, the way it happens.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
They've been doing the linking for twenty eight years. That's
crazy on Broadway.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I met one of the young women last night who's
from the original cast, and she's really from South Africa.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Oh wow.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I think her name was Linda, but I'm probably lying.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
So did she do that?

Speaker 5 (03:20):
Yeah, that's shame name, that's yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
But did she sing that?

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hey? Every song, every song you see in the movie,
you getting on that stage. Circle of life a kuda matata, Yeah,
all of it.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Circle of Life, that's the name of it. Okay. Yeah,
that's what's up.

Speaker 5 (03:38):
Let's get the show cracking. Look, Craig will be joining
us this morning. A reconstruction. It comes out August twenty second,
So we're gonna be kicking up with k cray and
then we got Front page News Morgan to be here
in the second.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning.

Speaker 5 (03:49):
Everybody's dj n V. Just hilarious. Charlamagne the guy. We
are the Breakfast Club. Now Morgan is not on, so
we don't have Front Page News with Morgan. Dad, Well,
they're trying to get Morgan on.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Is it her fault?

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Is it all fault? Probably our fault. Can't wait, that's
our fault.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
We don't know Morgan beyond this time of day every
day for the past years and change.

Speaker 4 (04:14):
Huh yeah, we know, all right, Well, technical difficulties, let's do.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Let's do dudes.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
Trump is Trump is still not going to release the
transcripts for the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Speaker 7 (04:26):
You know, I'm sure she was gonna mention that, absolutely.
I'm sure she was gonna mention that, uh.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
Senate Democrats to try to use the century old lord
to try to force the Trump administration to release the
Jeffrey Epstein files.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah, that's what that's what they're trying to do. By
the way, I'm fine with that.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
I just hope the Democrats are fine with mutually assured destruction,
I hope. But but but here's the thing, and I
said this before, you know, whatever the future of the
Democratic Party looks like that now has to throw the
old regime under the bus. So I'm sure that you
know whatever is in the Epstein files is a bunch
of the old regime.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
You got to be willing to blow all of that up,
which you should be right right by the way.

Speaker 5 (05:04):
And the Epstein I don't know if you've seen the
Epstein at the Epstein flick on Netflix.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Have you seen it down?

Speaker 8 (05:08):
No?

Speaker 1 (05:08):
I just saw the preview of it, but I didn't
watch it yet.

Speaker 7 (05:11):
Yeah, Epstein flick on that it's documentary.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
But they talked about how they would get the young
girls and say that he would want to massage first
and find these girls in high school. They would be
like fifteen sixteen, they'd come over and massage him, and
then you know, they would be like, take off your
clothes and then he would give them two three hundred dollars.
Back then, you know, when was that twenty years ago?
And we all know two three hundred dollars back then
was a lot more.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Money people talk about, you know, how they don't want
to traumatize, you know, victims, so they wouldn't if they
put the list out, they would redact all the names
and stuff, which they should. But then they'll put out
documentaries like that as if that don't retraumatize victim.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Yep, even if even if the person's name.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Is not mentioned, just describing all of the things that
these you know individuals may have gone through, I'm.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Sure it's traumatized.

Speaker 5 (05:51):
But they interviewed a lot of the victims, and a
lot of the victims were saying that, you know, they
were broke. This was around Christmas time, so they had
I guess he had like feelers. Go out and find
these young girls and say, hey, you want to make
a little extra money, all you got to do massiges
this old guy.

Speaker 7 (06:03):
And they'd be like, all right, I'm massage this old guy.

Speaker 5 (06:05):
And you know, they would come and come to the
house and they would massige them and take off their
clothes and all that.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
So we have audio.

Speaker 5 (06:12):
Senator Chuck Schumer talking about releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Speaker 9 (06:16):
The situation with the Epstein files is very simple. Donald
Trump promised transparency and he has broken that promise. As
a candidate, Trump said on many occasions he would release
the Epstein files if elected, and yet he has refused
to do so. This morning, I joined all of my
Democratic colleagues on the Homeland, Security and Government Affairs Committee

(06:39):
in invoking a century old law known as the rule
of five to compel the Department of Justice to release
the full and complete Epstein files.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
I'm just happy Democrats are staying on this. There were
some Democrats a couple of weeks ago saying.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Why do y'all care so much about the Epstein files?

Speaker 2 (06:57):
All other things going on in the world, And this
is what finally makes Trump's base upset.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Man, shut up and learn how to politics.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Okay, this is the thing that you know, the MAGA
bases upset about.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Fine, build a bridge.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
Okay the bridge and the fact that he's holding out
so long makes people want to know more, like why
are you holding out? Some boys involved with you know,
and who else was involved?

Speaker 2 (07:18):
For all the Democrats say things that we don't we
don't indulge in conspiracy, this is not a conspiracy anymore.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
This is an obvious cover up. And if it's the
thing that.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
Helps you build a bridge with those uh, Trump supporters
of that MAGA base, build it, damn it and be
willing to sacrifice at all, because yes, we know that
there's Democrats on that Epstein list too, I'm sure, and
a bunch of you know allies and you know corporate
donors and everything. But guess what, why are you protecting pedophiles?
And does anybody our pedophilesophiles? How Epstein got so much money?

Speaker 5 (07:48):
Like that's what I'm curing because they had the biggest
house in Manhattan, like the biggest, grandest house, and they
had the biggest hand in Mexico.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
He had his own island. And I would I.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
Would only sum that if you're doing that level of
pimping and you got all of these high profile clients
that you're you know right, yeah, I'm sure you got
whatever you wanted when.

Speaker 5 (08:09):
You wanted it, right, All right, Well that's front page news.
Morgan will be joining us next hour. I think we
got her right now.

Speaker 3 (08:15):

Okay, but I want to have a conversation. I was
trying to get in get through last week. We are
going down from South Carolina for kids and other Omega
brothers going down to Dacille the protest and support. But
the incident with the trapper stop last week. And I
know you said that the young man did a lot
of things wrong. Of course he did a lot of
things wrong with Stop.

Speaker 14 (12:07):
Like NBC. We got to comply, get home.

Speaker 12 (12:10):
And deal with that again.

Speaker 13 (12:12):
And we have sons. I have two sons, you have daughters. Lately,
Orphans has been treating our black sisters the same way
they treat guys. I just seen in the video where
they pushed the hell of a black lady. Now Charlamagne listened.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
To this doy.

Speaker 13 (12:28):
But but hear me you you for most corner. I
seen that lady got stopped. White lady fly droke in
most corner and.

Speaker 14 (12:36):
She wouldn't get out the contact. Her husband came from
West Nasty.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Charlamagne, damn what Asthley?

Speaker 14 (12:42):
You didn't know what?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
You know?

Speaker 3 (12:44):
What they did?

Speaker 14 (12:45):
They stood there patiently and hotly until he got there,
and then they arrested.

Speaker 13 (12:50):
But West Nasty man, she said, my husband lived in
Worst Nasty. So one say at least forty five minutes
an hour patient sat there. She wouldn't got she locked
the door. The ain't bust withn't nothing. So what I'm saying,
once he had pushed the guy, he had no reason
for that shot man.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
We all saw the video.

Speaker 13 (13:07):
There's like three video circulating and Jacksonville annoyed for.

Speaker 12 (13:10):
This type stuff because they got a brother at.

Speaker 13 (13:12):
Office, Tim Scott, and he covers stuff up and he
support that.

Speaker 14 (13:17):
He doesn't keep the tiper in check. But black people
we have went.

Speaker 13 (13:20):
Through so much and they don't understand. They just don't.
They never widow.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
Yeah, I don't think that the police officers should have
punched the guy. I should I don't think you should
have got the face. I don't think you should have
escalated to that, not got points in the face. I
don't think absolutely.

Speaker 13 (13:35):
My thing when they pull up, they pull up with aggression.
Want to now, I'm gonna say you to get off.
If that boy would have.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
Been oh your phone breaking up?

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Brother, Yeah, I don't think that the police officer should
have punched the guy in the face. But you know,
I will say, once again, if the if the if
the young man knew he had a suspended license.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
He should have been a lot more humble during that trap.

Speaker 11 (13:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (13:57):
I mean, if you had a suspended lison, you're going
to jail. There's nothing you can say.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Anything that's right, that's right, that's right, all of rour
rob like if you like, you know, the slamming the
door on the cop and all of that. Don't especially
when you know and then they already got a lightnse.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
Can do what they want. Does anyway, don't give him
more of a reason. Hello, who's this Kobe? Kobe? Get
it off your chest, Kobe?

Speaker 8 (14:20):
Hey, I want to appeared the.

Speaker 14 (14:23):
Raiders Dune the day yesterday?

Speaker 7 (14:26):
Or you want to appeal Charlamone's don't get to day?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Yeah, well, hold on, charl don't get a day to
who for people like that?

Speaker 2 (14:32):
That I gave it to the Las Vegas Raiders, you know,
because they cut what's the brother's name, Christian Wilkins. Because
it's a number of reasons he he had, you know,
his foot was hurt. He didn't want to have surgery
on his foot. But what they ultimately used to cut
him was he kissed the young man on the top
of his head.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
Another another player.

Speaker 8 (14:52):
Yeah, but Christian always be in against Ohio today. He
wasn't even involved in the tackle and heard Samuel was
to pay that with the run back that was brought
down workers. He said that he needed to take a handful.

(15:14):
He's been a booty warrior.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
So that's I mean, if he's a booty warrior, and
that means that they're cutting them from being gay.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
So he definitely need money.

Speaker 11 (15:25):
Now if you run the company and and yeah, I
wanted Victors.

Speaker 8 (15:35):
Era, that is true, but then you're gonna do.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
That is true. Listen, that is true. Let me ask
you a question. Yeah, how long you have been listening
to the show?

Speaker 8 (15:47):
A long time? I gotta says, twenty eleven, twelve.

Speaker 5 (15:52):
So so when Charlamagne gave me the butt the ass
for my birthday, should I.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
His birthdays? Big ass, like a big black ass.

Speaker 14 (16:04):
Older.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
But but you know what's so crazy about this?

Speaker 3 (16:07):
If he took the ass, that make him gay too,
Like you don't have myself that I didn't give it
to you. You didn't say you didn't. You said that
I gave it to you, So that means you took it, dummy.
Then he shined a pin on my forehead.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
He is.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
I will say though to your point.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
The Christian Wilkins Donkey is under review because somebody sent

suspect acts.

Speaker 3 (17:52):
Jay Z should have performed, but he didn't.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
I want to see Outcast performing November at the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame. Dre, you got to put
the flute and piano down for one second and become
that microphone, my brother. We need that outcast performance at
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in November.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
I agree, all right.

Speaker 7 (18:06):
Well, Laurence Hill, let's get to the latest with Laurie.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Laurenie coming straight fast, man.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
She gets them somebody that knows somebody to detail.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I'm a homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
She'd be having the.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Latest on this.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
The law the latest with Lauren la Rosa.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
Sometimes you have fact, sometimes you have details, sometimes you
have a little bit of everything.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
So it's the leader on the breakfast club.

Speaker 15 (18:30):
So Shannon sharp has been fired from ESPN. This comes
weeks after settling or getting to a resolution for undisclosed
amount or undisclosed whatever that resolution was in the rape lawsuit.
Let's take a listen to Shannon Sharpie spoke out about
this last night on Night Cap.

Speaker 16 (18:45):
I'm sure everybody's heard the news by now that I
will not be returning to ESPN. I found out this
information a little earlier in the week, and really the
only thing that I really ask is, like, guys, could
we uh wait until Monday? My brother's going into the
Pro Football Hall of Fame. I said, this coming out
will overshadow everything that he's worked his entire life for.
As I profusely apologized to him earlier today, he said, bro,

(19:07):
stop apologizing. I'm your big bro. I'm gonna love you regardless.
And I really enjoyed my time at ESPN. It gave
me an opportunity to bring my audience that saw me
really just grow. They saw me you know, Lakers and
five and they saw me say all these funny these
analogies that my grandparents gave me. So I'm very, very
grateful for that. I just wish this thing could have
could have waited until Monday. The first two brothers in

(19:29):
the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and this is what
the headline is gonna be for the next couple of days.
So I apologize, and I thank all my fans for
supporting me when I was at ESPN and every place
that I've been. Thank you guys for your support.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
A reported six point five million dollars a year down
the drain.

Speaker 15 (19:45):
From poor choices and lack of deed discipline exactly Meek
mil tweeted out yesterday. I thought that this was one
of Meek's most makes sense tweets. He responded to the
news of Shanna sharping fire from ESPN. He said, y'all
too old to be getting fired for real.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Maybe, I mean, it makes.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
A lot of sense about what he's saying. You get
what he's saying.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
It makes sense when you know Meek, but you can
get fired at any age, right.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
He don't mean it like that.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
I get what but let's be clear, it don't matter
what you mean. It's what you say. You can get
fired at any age. But I get what Meek is saying.
There's a Bible verse for that, First Corinthians thirteen eleven.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
You know that, right, you and the church.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
I am in a church, but I don't, off the
top of my head give it to me.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
Way. When I was a child, I spoke like a child.
I felt like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put away childish things. Yes,
so that's what I think.

Speaker 1 (20:30):
He was saying me too. That's why I think the
tweet made sense.

Speaker 15 (20:33):
But they was firing enough fire him up for But
back to Shannon, I'm not surprised about this news, but
I didn't necessarily If he wouldn't have got fired, I
wouldn't have been surprised either.

Speaker 7 (20:43):
Did they give a reason why he was fired? I
did not give at least statement.

Speaker 15 (20:46):
No, there's been no comment from ESPN. But I mean
I confirmed that this is a real thing when the
Athletic dropped the news first. But there's been no statement
from ESPN.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
But back when on.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
Disney Man Mickey Mouse not staying by that.

Speaker 17 (21:00):
See.

Speaker 15 (21:00):
But the only reason why I say that is because
back when all of the the you know, the the
rape lawsuit dropped and the fifty million dollars was being asked.
When all the things were happening, there were rumors that
he was fired or whatever at that point, and I
reached out and said, hey, here's what's being reported. I
want to know what's going on. And I was told
by a source close to the network that the firing.
There was no firing that, you know, it just he

(21:22):
has scheduled days on the shows that on the show
he was on, and that was it. There's nothing to
see here. Let's keep watching all of his platforms and
everything he's on.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
There was I don't know. I just I thought maybe
they might try.

Speaker 15 (21:33):
And work with them, because we don't not Mickey Mouse,
because people it sooner though.

Speaker 5 (21:39):
Yeah, people are harpening on the fact that he quote
unquote wasn't charged. But it's more than just being charged.
It's everything that was released after that.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
That's the way you make the brand look one hundred percent.
It's Disney. But I just thought a Disney would do
it sooner or you know they were going to do that.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
But yes, uh so, I don't know, because the Shannons
shop was in this situation because of Shannons shops. Just
poor choices and lack of discipline hasn't been in this situation.
And that's why when you things like this man, you
don't laugh. You just got to learn from it. And
what you should learn is when you have something to lose,
you got to act like it. And you know, he
wasn't acting like it.

Speaker 5 (22:08):
I wonder if if he knew he was gonna get fired,
would he still have settled though he or he would
have took it all the.

Speaker 15 (22:13):
Way he had todn't have known that. I don't think
Disney just like woke up one day and was like, Hey,
this is what's happening. They've been having conversations behind the
scenes for some time. He said that member Steven A.
Smith came out and said, conversations are happening. It probably
was a back and forth for I don't know, but
you don't just randomly find out something like that.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
I don't think he was thinking about his job in
that situation. You're thinking about himself, his personal personal life, family,
personal things.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
He probably didn't want.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Want exposed one hundred percent.

Speaker 15 (22:39):
And I think that's why the settlement came too, because
if not, I think we would have you remember he
talked about the video that was potentially going to be
released by Tony Busby.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
Released audio.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah, they released audio now.

Speaker 15 (22:50):
I will say, though, his statement that he posted where
he actually named the Jane Doe and addressed the lawsuit,
Tony Busby came out and said that kind of forced
their hand. That's why they're at least the audio. So
there was a little bit of the attention in the
back and forth. So I think that this just got
things so compoint where he can now try and move
on it. Honestly, I was watching him on Nightcap last
night when he was talking about it, and I was like, man,

(23:11):
he should thank God for his own platforms because right now,
I don't know, but anybody get next to Shannon Shop
right now.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
He still got still got a Nightcap yep, you know,
and people tune in doing it very well. But this
isn't the ESPN's fault. This isn't the white man's fault.
This is Shannon Shops. Like they can't shake you down
if you don't give him nothing to shake, well, they can,
which is all the more reason you shouldn't give him
nothing to They will make some stuff up to you know. Yeah, man,
just just lack of the discipline can cost you everything. Okay,

(23:38):
we call that d D because I can't say the
word I want to though, Well, Dick Tracy O, yes.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
Be careful, black man, be careful black man decisions. If
he was white, it would be different. It would be different,
not justifying what he's doing, what he did or whatever.
I don't say, all right, that's cool. Difference than the thing.
And if he was white, it would be less.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
We see it everybody now.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
You think if it was a white man, Disney would
have stood by like.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
Keatham, it would be certainly different.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
I mean, were talking about Mickey Mouse and Disney and
all that about behind the scenes of everything that happens
Disney and all these.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (24:13):
So it's just like, come on, have the white man
that's been charged that the same thing hasn't happened. I
think what hurt him is the video is the audio
conversation conversation. I think that's what hurt Over.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
Several years with the Me too movement, we miss seeing
black people and white people get it. And you know,
if they're taking down powerful white men, imagine what they're
gonna do to us. So that's all the more reasons
you gotta move carefully.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Yep, that's why I saying be careful black men.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well that is the latest with Laura.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
Now when we come back, we got front page news
and then La Craze will be joining us as new
album Reconstruction comes out August twenty second. We'll talk to
him a little bit. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same
on everybody, you sej Envy, just hilarious, Charlamagne to God.
We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
page news and yes we have more.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Hey y'all, Hey, thank you for holding it down. Vy,
you did you a big one on the far page news.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
I was guessing. I was guessing.

Speaker 18 (25:09):
All right, y'all, let's get into it. So just a
quick update on the tsunami warnings. The evacuation orders were
lifted in Hawaii and the threat is down in California
after the one of the strongest earthquakes recorded in history. Now,
the magnitude eight point eight quake off Russia's Far East
coast resulted in tsunami alerts being sent out. Homeland Security
Secretary Christy Nome says that threat of a major tsunami

(25:32):
has passed, and officials do warn that currents can remain
dangerous for days after that. So that's good news. But
you know, if you're in the water, make sure you
guys stay safe in out West.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
So yeah, speaking about.

Speaker 18 (25:45):
West, former Vice President Kamala Harris is ruling out a
run for California governor. In a statement, Harris said she
gave serious thought to making a run, but ultimately decided
not to enter the race. Harris said for now, her
leadership in public service will not be in elected office.
The former Vice president says she's looking forward to helping
elect Democrats across the country Here said she will share

(26:07):
more details about her own plans in the coming months.
This comes as speculation remains regarding the former presidential candidate
possibly running for the White House again in twenty twenty eight.
You guys want to see it, yes or no? Or
new what you say, new blood in there, Charlamaine new Dems.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think I think, you know,
Kamala can definitely be a leader in the Democratic Party.
And I mean I think the interesting thing about you know,
the form of VP is. I kind of like that
strategy because you think about it, over the last what
five six years, every time the VP has been out
and about, it's kind of been transactional, right, because you know,

(26:44):
twenty twenty she ran for President of the United States
of America, and then she became, you know, the VP,
and then she became the you know, the Democratic nominee
last year. So it's kind of like every time you
see her in front of people, she's she's kind of
asking for something. I think now how she just gives
people the opportunity.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
To get to know her.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
I don't think people ever really got the opportunity to
get to know her. And if you actually get to
know her, you'll like her.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
And I don't think. I don't think people ever, you know,
got that opportunity ever.

Speaker 7 (27:12):
So I think I think if she does, she'll get
a fair shot of actually running.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
I mean, well, she had a fear shot the first time,
but last time, I don't think she had enough time,
and it was people were just bidened out.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
I don't think she really got how many months did
she have to campaign for? Hundred days? I don't think,
I don't I don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
I don't know if she should run again, But I
definitely would like to see her write a book. I
definitely would like to, you know, see her start a
podcast and just build a real connection with people. You know,
and she is, I mean, relatively young. I just I
just don't know what's gonna happen in twenty twenty eight. Man,
I just think Democrats suck so bad.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Then Harris got to get to the to the root,
the grassroots of it, all right.

Speaker 18 (27:50):
So, in other news, the Federal Reserve is leaving interest
rates unchanged, and FED chair Jerome Powell spoke after the
announcement saying they are still cost let's hear from him.

Speaker 19 (28:01):
My colleagues and I remain squarely focused on achieving our
dual mandate goals of maximum employment and stable prices for
the benefit of the American people. Despite elevated uncertainty, the
economy is in a solid position. Although the increase in
the second quarter was stronger at three percent, Focusing on
the first half of the year helps smooth through the

(28:21):
volatility in the quarterly figures related to the unusual swings
in net exports. The moderation in growth largely reflects a
slow down in consumer spending.

Speaker 18 (28:31):
So this comes as President Trump, of course, has been
publicly pressuring Pow to lower rates.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Now.

Speaker 18 (28:36):
Shortly before the Fed made that announcement, Trump said he
heard Powell will cut interest rates in their next meeting.
Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments.

Speaker 20 (28:46):
I hear they're going to do it in September, not
today for what reason. Nobody knows. Europe, as you know,
cut their rates eleven times in the last short period
of time. But the good news is we're doing better
than anybody anywhere in the world. Nobody's doing anything even
close to does even with the higher rates.

Speaker 18 (29:04):
He again said that Powell's decision not to cut rates
is costing the economy hundreds of billions of dollars. Now
Poll's team, or excuse me, Pal's term is up in
nine months. It's the fifth straight time the Central Bank
has kept rates steady, no increases or decreases elsewhere. A
Chicago man issuing Chicago police and the Cook County State's
Attorney's office after spending nearly three decades in prison for

(29:27):
a crime he didn't commit. Jerry Harrington filed a lawsuit
after his murder conviction was vacated back in March. He
was sixteen years old when he was arrested and charged
with the June nineteen ninety one murder of Vera Brown
and the dearborn Holmes public housing development on the South Side.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Let's take a listen to Jerry Harrington.

Speaker 16 (29:46):
Terror gave me physically beat me, threatened me, and then
hauled me off and sent me to the county j sixteen.

Speaker 18 (29:53):
So, his lawsuit claimed Chicago police officers and detectives manipulated
another man into falsely identifying Herringon as the shooter at trial,
as well as falsified reports that Harrington had confessed. So
I'll keep you guys posted on that and bringing things
back to you guys in New York with that shooting
that happened on Monday. The gunman who shot and killed

(30:13):
four people at a Manhattan office building on Monday was
sold the gun he used by was sold the gun
he used by a supervisor. Now CNM reports that Shane Tomorrow,
at twenty seven year old with a history of mental health,
was sold a M four rifle by a supervisor of
his Las Vegas casino he worked at for fourteen hundred dollars.
Now investigators say the supervisor had bought the assault rifle

(30:36):
legally in August of twenty twenty four and assembled it
before selling it to Tomorrow. Now New York City Mayor
Eric Adams believes Tomorrow was targeting the NFL league office
located in that building, but took the wrong elevator bank.
A suicide note was found on him, expressing hostility towards
the NFL. And today, the funeral of the fallen NYPD
officer Dita Rule Islam is happening. He was killed on

(30:59):
Monday and the office tower mask shooting. There'll be a
line of duty funeral for the fallen officer at a
mosque in Parkchester section of the Bronx. Islam, a thirty
six year old husband and father of two whose wife
is expecting their third baby next month, was gunned down
by Shane Tomorrow, that Las Vegas fan with the history
of mental illness. Now deepest condolences to Islam's family and

(31:22):
his brothers in blue. And that wraps it up for me, guys.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
Good to see you, brother. I was listening in the
reconstruction man, and I told them earlier, I said, I
iflu cre wasn't a quote unquote Christian rapper, they would
have to put this in raper album.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Of the Year category.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
Wow, that's big. I truly believe that that's big. This
is a phenomenal body of work.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
I appreciate that.

Speaker 12 (32:25):
Man.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Like yeah, man, I mean, you know, you live what
you live with you You you know However, how they
meet you is how they see you.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
So it's like they met me in the four walls
of the church. So you know that's the box.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
But I'm a product of hip hop, so you know
what I'm saying, it's all love. But I appreciate that
that means a lot, bro, absolutely, because.

Speaker 5 (32:42):
Well, I want to start off with diving into the album.
First of all, how long did it take you to
do this album? Because this album is you could tell
you you took a lot into doing this album. Yeah,
I mean even to the beat selection and it sounds
like a movie.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
You ain't dropping a.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Few years, right, Yeah, I ain't put out an album
album in a minute. Yeah, it took me a while. Yah,
I just you know, we pieced it together. You know
what I'm saying, we pieced it together. I was real
meticulous and just like you know what I mean, let me,
let me really like push the boundaries and stretch stuff out.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
I was given s one aheadache, you know what I'm saying, Like, Hey,
can you add a little bit, can you tweak this?
Can you do this? You know what I'm saying. So
it took me a little while, but it was worth it.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
Man, People rush music these days, man, they just make
like disposable music, and I just I just felt like
it's time out.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Fra Audy, are you tired of being put in that
box that you're I don't want see. People don't take
you serious, but they look at you a certain way
where they should just look at you as an artist,
a hip hop artist.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
I would appreciate it. I would appreciate if they listen.
You call me what you want to call me, hip
hop artist, but listen. Yeah, just listen to the music.
I don't care what you if you want to call
me whatever, gospel rapper, Christian rapper, Listen, that's it. Because
I think there's a misnom where people get it twisted
and they think that the music gonna sound like this

(33:56):
or you know what I'm saying. I'm still scarred from
Like I went to an in a practicing like handed
a that when I did my first church closed mixtape
and I handed a player by joint.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
He was like, I don't listen to no gospel rap.
I was like, Bruh, you know what I'm saying. You
probably had a horrible season that season. Listen. I'm not
gonna mention that when somebody give you a Jesus pamphlet
in the street and you look at it. You can't
You got to give it to somebody else, You can't
throw it out. Yeah, man, So I don't. I don't
like that.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
I don't like that people say it's corny. I'm like, bro,
you got I don't know where you even got this,
Like when's the last time you just sat and listened
to a body of work to even create this idea
of it.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
So you know, as long as you listen, I don't care.

Speaker 15 (34:36):
When I listened to it, it was my first time
listening to one of your full projects. I definitely expected
something different because of the name Reconstruction, especially because I
think of you as a gospel rap artist.

Speaker 7 (34:46):
And he just said it wouldn't be that.

Speaker 15 (34:48):
I mean, I'm just saying like it just happens naturally.
So I thought Reconstruction gospel rap artists. I thought it
was going to be very like kind of like rap,
but alter call ish.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
It wasn't that. It was more about your story, right
Why the name reconstruction.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
A lot of different reasons.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
So Reconstruction is like it's a theme, it's thematic for
my life and what I've experienced. But it's also just
the eraror we living in. We dispose people, we throw
them away. So like you see what happened at the
Coldplay concert with the hr you know what I'm saying,
And it was like social media was excited to destroy.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
Them, like tear them down.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
They was wrong for a lot of reasons. First of all, anyway,
I'm not even gonna get in a while, they was wrong.
But I mean, first of all, Bro, what did you
do while you got you wrapped up at the car?
I mean, you was wrong for cheating on your wife,
but you're really wrong. You wild for like being bowed up,
hugged up like that in public.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
You a whole ceo.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
You you trip it. But the way social media was
excited to destroy them was is like that's what we
get excited about. In my homie Mike d he was
tearing a part of a treehouse in his backyard and
he was doing it piece by piece, like let me
be careful because he didn't want to just demolish it
because he wants to reuse that would And that's what

(36:03):
I feel like reconstructions about it is like God, don't
just want to destroy people.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
He wants to reconstruct and reuse them. I work in
prisons all the time.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
I was in a prison not too long ago, and
it was a dude in there, And I don't condone
none of the stuff he did.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
You know, he did some hainous things. They whooped him,
they beat him up when he first got there.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
But over the course of his years there, like he's
been influential, He's changed people's lives. He's done and how
long do we got to like be looked at as
this terrible human being before It's like something different can
happen with him.

Speaker 3 (36:33):
So that's kind of why I did reconstruction.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
The second reason why is because you know, the reconstruction
era in American history is a time period where you know,
disenfranchised people were able to come up from the rubble
and make a difference in society.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
So it's like both pieces.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
You know, I've heard you also speak about deconstructing your
faith before.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
So what did you discover about God?

Speaker 2 (36:55):
I guess when you script away religion that made you
want to do a reconstruction I got. I caught a
lot of flak from the Evangelical church when when when
black bodies were being laid in the street, and I
was very open about it, and uh and you know,
people was like really hated that I was standing up
for social issues and uh and and it gave me

(37:16):
a lot of tension with the church, with with you know,
the broader church, American church, and so I was like, well,
maybe this whole thing is wrong.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
So I was ready to throw it all away.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
I went to Egypt and I got to see like
some of the Christians over there, and it was different.
You know, I got to read about Ethiopia and see
how Christianity was not started in America.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
It's not this white man's religion.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
It's something that existed outside of the European narrative. And
you know, shout out to my my white brothers and sisters,
but I'm just saying, they don't they It's a lot
of things have been co opted.

Speaker 3 (37:49):
It's not like this, this European religion.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
So I had to tear down these like American ideas
of what God is, what church is, and reconstruct from.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
The respective that the Bible really gives it, you know
what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
So it's kind of like eating Mom's spaghetti, Like if
you got the recipe from two twenty five years ago,
and now you're leaving out stuff that ain't the same recipe.
And I feel like the faith so much stuff has
been left out. So I just wanted to rebuild on
the foundation. Jesus is my foundation, and let's rebuild this
thing in a healthier way.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
And that's what reconstruction looks like.

Speaker 18 (38:21):
Now.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
You know, in the first track, you talk about being
church heard, and it's so in threats because I was
just having a conversation with my good sister Debbie Brown
yesterday and she was talking about religious trauma, trauma people
have experienced being in the church, right, Like, what is
churchhard to you? Church heard is you know when the

(38:43):
people that you expect to serve you well, the people
that you expect to become your family and love you well,
let you down. But it happens everywhere, right, every It's
not just in the church. It could be you know,
I remember when the Game was crying because he thought
hip hop was gonna be something that it wasn't, you
know what I'm saying. And it's like he was hip
hop hurt, you know what I mean? People have expectations

(39:06):
and the expectations ain't met. And I think the problem
is we blame God, and it ain't. That's not a
God hurt. That's the people hurt. People let you down.
God didn't, you know what I'm saying. So I think
people turning back on church because of that. And I
you know, for me, man, I love I You know,
I ain't getting sponsored by Chipotle, but I love Chipotle.
They're good, but certain Chipotle's they don't.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Be seasoning that food right. It don't make me say
I hate Chipotle. I'll never go to Chipotle again.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
I may not go to that one or I may
not go and buddy working behind, but I still love Chipotle.
So I think that's what people do with God and
with church, like oh, they had a terrible experience. I'm
done with God. My mom, you know, she grew up
in a very religious world like that, she was done.
She didn't raise me in church because she was like,
they burnt me too bad. So you know, we had
to work through that trauma with her.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
So I get it. Yeah, we're still kicking it with
la Craye.

Speaker 15 (39:53):
Lauren, you talk about a lot of your life stuff
in the album, so I know some of the background,
but like church wise, like because you talk so different
than a lot of the church leaders or people that
are in faith. Do you get anxiety from that? Like
when you put out interviews. I watched when you were
talking to uh I forget his name is Mike. Y'all
were talking about like church nominations and that not being
a real thing anymore. Oh yeah, And I was like,

(40:13):
I could never watch it with my grandma.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
Nah.

Speaker 3 (40:15):
I mean, I you just gotta know who rock with you.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
I'm not afraidist to just tell the truth. Like I
just after you being in this game, been in this
game for so long, you realize like.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
There's always gonna be a critic.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
There's always gonna be somebody, and if you don't stand
for what you believe in, somebody's gonna knock you off
your pivot.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
I played the game too long, you know, if that
makes sense. Like I danced, I was. I remember my
first time coming here. I was so nervous. I was like,
all right, what I gotta say. Let me not mess
this up.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
And you know, you start feeling like, I gotta represent
the Christians, I gotta represent the hip hop community. I
gotta you know, and then after a while you're just
like bro I'm I'm just gonna be who God called
me to be, and I don't really got time to
wrestle with all these weird things. I remember being so
like torn and how do I navigate? Like my first
time meeting Jay was such an embarrassing moment because I

(41:02):
felt like you saw me.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying. It was like, how
do I What was the story? Bro?

Speaker 2 (41:09):
So we was at we was at a Super Bowl
party years back, and uh now I was I was tipsy,
I was you know what I'm saying. I was indulging
a little too much. But uh and I no longer drink,
by the way, so catch anybody. It ain't a religious thing.
It's a sobriety thing. But I approached J Cole and
then I'm like, Okay, what do I do?

Speaker 3 (41:28):
What do I say? That's J Cole?

Speaker 2 (41:29):
I don't And then what comes out of my mouth is, hey, bro,
do you believe in Jesus? And it was just like
not hello, and that what's up? Bro?

Speaker 3 (41:37):
My name is Like it was just like who is
Oh my god? You said it? Like what's that you claim?
I was like for the kingdom.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
It was like I was, you know what I'm saying,
like I really trastic. So he was like, I mean,
I grew up in church, but I'm processing what I
believe and you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (41:57):
And I was like all right.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
I was like, well, take my number down. He took
my number down, and then I was like, uh. He
walked away when and I said, hey, man, you didn't
even put my number in my name in your phone.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
How you gonna call me back? You don't know my name.
I'm really crashing out like an idiot.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
You know who you are?

Speaker 3 (42:12):
I said that to him. He looked, he was like,
I know who you are. You know what I'm saying.
I was like, I felt stupid, but it was that era.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
You know, this is like ten years ago, but it
was how stupid It like just nervous, not knowing who
to be, not knowing how to walk in my own identity,
not knowing how to be who God called me to be,
and just and I think it just took time for
me to get comfortable in my own skin.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
So I don't really like you, like you were saying,
I don't trip no more.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
When like the religious community may be mad at me,
the non religious community may be mad at me.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
But then I ain't to me. If I was, I'm
not gonna front. If I was, I'd be like fake.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
And I really say that I met you you drunkers
have He couldn't tell though, if you're talking like that,
he ran.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
I believe in Jesus, baby, I deserve that one, y'all.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
Having spoke at all, I wonder what he thinks to you.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
I don't know, bro, I don't know. It was bad crazy.
It was bad, bro, it was bad. But I mean,
but I own it. It's like I own it. You
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (43:16):
I own my story.

Speaker 3 (43:17):
It's like, that's kind of what you did the Prince. Yes,
it is. What's the first thing you said? The prince?

Speaker 2 (43:22):
First of all?

Speaker 3 (43:23):
How it is? Prince right?

Speaker 2 (43:25):
He one morning he was up here at the radio station,
like five in the morning. Somebody was like your princess him,
like Prince, why would prince be here?

Speaker 3 (43:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (43:32):
And he we went, We put the station on, all
over we went. He was walking down the hall with
two old white women and he was nice as hell.
He came up to spoke. Not nice as hell, I'm sorry.
He was nice as heaven. And he came up to
us what's the first thing you said. I said, I
grew up Jehovah witness too. David say, hello, that's what
I did. It's the same story.

Speaker 3 (43:52):
Like that's what you did. You said it was awkward
and I got you.

Speaker 5 (43:57):
Hell yeah, six o'clock in the morning. But at least,
I mean, that's that's religious trauma. That's a big what
are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (44:10):
That's to take a minute?

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Can we talk about that for religion.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
That's that's such religious trauma. That's like, yeah, brother, that's
oh yeah, that's that's cult action. And I know Jovah's
winning is gonna come to me for that. But that's
a that's a whole cult.

Speaker 3 (44:27):
Now, I don't think it's a cult. Have to say
that because my mom is. I mean, you don't mean
it as I got to say.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Because my mom is, somebody's going to send this to her.
I don't think it's a cult. But I understand what
you're saying, because man, when you're a kid and you
growing up and everybody else celebrating the holidays and you and.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Religion, religion is the term religion.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
I mean biblically religion is is like it's a practice, right,
But what we mean in our society is like it
is rules without relationship. In a lot of ways, It's
like religion to me is if you love your wife,
you come home with flowers and you say.

Speaker 3 (45:04):
Here's what I'm supposed to give you, sweetheart. That's religious
relationship is I was thinking.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
About you all day, baby, I got you some flowers
and I just wanted to show you some that's relationship.
So to me, it's like I came out to woman,
I can't have birthday parties, and I got to do
all these things and button up this. I don't even
know if I got a relationship with God, Like, why
would I want to be connected to a God who
don't want to How do.

Speaker 15 (45:25):
You raise kids in religion then, because I think a
lot of people would say that there's like, I mean,
you don't have that right because you said your mom didn't.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
Really, Yeah, I got three kids.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Well okay, so are you raising your kids in religion?
And how do you do it?

Speaker 3 (45:38):
Then? In relationship? Yah, that's how I mean.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
I don't like, Hey, kids, I'm bringing We're going to
church because I feel like this is the healthiest place
for you. Because I've met God. I don't my daughter's
the only one of my kids who's gotten baptized. Because
I'm like, I don't want to force nothing on y'all.
Y'all gonna have to make this decision for yourself. This
was her decision that she made, and we celebrate that.

(46:03):
I've had hard combos with my oldest son, who was like,
I don't know if I believe this is what would
I be a Muslim if I done live in this
house And we have those dialogues, and I love those, like, yeah,
let's go there. Let's have these conversations so that he
can but I want him to see the consistency of
my life. He's like, nah, Dad. He talks about the
fruit of the spirit, love, joy, peaces, patience, kindness, gentle
and self control.

Speaker 3 (46:23):
But then he lives it.

Speaker 2 (46:24):
He apologizes when he mess up because I just passed,
but then I come back and like he sees that
I have a relationship with God and for him, he's
made that decision on his own as well. But it's like,
I'm not saying you better. I'm saying this is what
I feel like is the healthiest way. That's why I
don't like to hold this fellowship at the Kingdom Hall.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
You know, that's actually what turned me off to it,
whether I realized.

Speaker 2 (46:48):
That or not. But as I got older, I realized
the reason I was turned off to it is when
watching my father get this fellowship.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
Their father needed help in that moment.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
He was with substance abuse issues, and yeah, you know
this fellowship of man for and then they make you
come to the Kingdom Hall, but nobody speaks to you,
and they announced to the whole congregation such and such
has been this fellowship from the Kingdom Park, like.

Speaker 7 (47:08):
God, but your bobs is in there and they just
cancel might then in front everybody.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
Nobody talks like they don't talk to you, And how
are you supposed to heal? Like I say what I'm
saying like crazy, that's what I'm saying, Like like I
don't get that. I was just when I was walking
down the street yesterday, a dude on the block passed
me the flyer and then he was like a street
preacher and he ended up being a dope one. But
a lot of times my issue with street preachers too
is just like, bro, you yelling at people, You're condemning

(47:31):
people like you don't even know their names. I got
the One dude ran upon me as I was leaving
a Wu Tang concert and he was like, look, Rag,
what are you doing here?

Speaker 3 (47:40):
I was like, enjoying some music, you know what.

Speaker 2 (47:43):
I'm saying, Like you know, But then he was blasting
me and blasting people around him. So I walked up
to this table and I'm like, bro, he was in
the argument with another dude, and I said, yo, my man,
what's your name?

Speaker 3 (47:54):
And the dude he was arguing with told me his name.
I said, where you from? He told me where he's from.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
I said, word, man, you want to get together some time,
maybe get coffee and talk about what you believe.

Speaker 3 (48:02):
He's like, I'm down. I said, how about you try
that my guy, instead of yelling at him and telling
him he's going to hell? You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
But it's like that's the stuff I don't. I can't
fool it. Like it's like there ain't no relationship in that.

Speaker 5 (48:13):
We got more with La Craye when we come back
as the Breakfast Club the Morning Color.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
Yeah, let me take y'all back, man, as I do
so well?

Speaker 2 (48:31):
What and nothing like that?

Speaker 3 (48:33):
Man, he wasn't nothing like that first.

Speaker 17 (48:36):
Time she was in my mad class, long hair, brown skin,
with the fact sat beside me, used to.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Laugh, had bad shokes.

Speaker 3 (48:43):
The teacher always got mad.

Speaker 17 (48:45):
So we had snokes and started off soap and it's
she had a vibe in it, started digging it.

Speaker 3 (48:51):
I wasn't youngest, straight, crushing, trying to play stooms but
waiting to get to school because.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
You wouldn't have seen your clothes on it.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
And the mints so it and the milnts.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
So it got me date treaming.

Speaker 17 (49:01):
Man, what I'm thinking, How she drives on it, if
she sits on.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
It, if she yicks on it, make it off for
me to stand up?

Speaker 17 (49:07):
The time goes by, the tracks is getting it deeper
with dreaming, thinking that I'm smashing, but I'm sleeping.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
I'm on it bed and I ain't.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
Never been obsessed before.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
She wrote a notice that you ever had sex before?

Speaker 2 (49:19):
And I ain't never did this before.

Speaker 5 (49:22):
Morning everybody against DJ n V Jess Hilaris, Charlamagne, the
guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it
with l.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Cray.

Speaker 5 (49:28):
This new album comes out August twenty second, Reconstruction Charlamagne.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
How do you maintain faith in a culture like hip
hop that often monetizes your trauma.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
But resistion here woo, that's a that's a that's a
deep one right there.

Speaker 2 (49:42):
Bro.

Speaker 3 (49:42):
I think there's irresponsibility. I get it. You a young
dude off the block. This is an opportunity for you
to get a check.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
The industry, the powers that be say hey, tell that
story five more times and you're gonna get more checks.
And you don't know enough about who you are, your
own identity, your value, yourself worth to even understand. Like
I'm being like used, But I don't think that's how
hip hop started. That wasn't the how it initiated. It
was us as grids in the community, telling what was

(50:11):
going on around us, not like trying to like capitalize
off artist's trauma porn, you know what I'm saying. So
I don't like that, and so that's why I do
bring the healing side. That's when even when I collaborate
with other artists, like you know, and I did a
song with Walker back in the day, and I was like,
let's talk about the other side of the game. I
done sold drugs, You done sold drugs, but no one
talks about the trauma that come with that. The what's

(50:33):
it like sitting behind you know, a cell. What's it
like seeing you My daddy's you know, was a crack
addict for it for years and just to see that
reality and live live under that, you know what I'm saying.
So it's like, let's talk about the trauma of that
and then the healing aspect of it is I'm walking
and breathing as a healed individual.

Speaker 3 (50:52):
You know.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
I think people want me to be perfect so many
times without understanding where I came from, what I came through,
and it's like we'll be perfect, and I'm like, look,
I'm not as bad as you think I am. But
I'm not as good as you think I am either.
I'm a human being in the middle trying to walk
this thing out as best I can.

Speaker 15 (51:05):
You grew up in this household where your mom is
not pressing you to do any right and then you
find God through your own journey. At what point do
you Because you've said you hate the church. You said
it on this album, I.

Speaker 3 (51:16):
Said I hate it, hate it. Hated hate it?

Speaker 15 (51:19):
Yes, So what makes you bring people? Because when people
find God, they go find a physical church. A lot
of times they can't separate the two, right, what makes
you bring people to a physical church to expose them
to what might become a church.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
If I love the church, the big sea, the people
who love God all around the world is global.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
It's not American.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
The models that we see for church are generally like
sometimes it's an industrial complex. Sometimes it's a system. The
work still get done. Like sometimes it's like I get it.
It's like it's an infrastructure. It's a system. There's lights,
and there's cameras and there's these things, like it's an
oratorial speech being given. It's a Broadway production.

Speaker 3 (52:02):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
That's not what church is. That is a expression from
the people who love God. But what church is is
a gathering of God's people who come together as a
community to live out, to celebrate God, to navigate their lifestyle.
So some of the other things that get built up

(52:23):
that we call church, you know, shout out to my
guy Carlins, and.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
You know, he was a part of that complex. You
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (52:32):
And it's like they're made the pastors are made out
to be gurus. None of them are gurrules.

Speaker 3 (52:37):
They giraffes on ice skates. They don't got it, they
don't got it figured out. You know, but everyone sees
them as gurus, so when they fall aslip.

Speaker 2 (52:44):
They should be responsible, but they've been propped up to
be these gurrules and it's like, bro, they fooling themselves
thinking they got it all together. So I don't hate
the church. I love the Church. The expressions we see
a lot of times in America I think are silly,
you know what I'm saying, But I navigate him and
I deal with them because that's that's where we are

(53:04):
as a culture. You know what I'm saying. It's like
it's like hip hop. It's like, I know what hip
hop used to look like. I know it looks like now.
I think some stuff is silly. I think having to
make a TikTok go viral for people to enjoy your
song is silly. But it's where we are. So I'm
not just down in it and I'm like my stupid y'all,
dumb y'all laying It's like, it's.

Speaker 3 (53:20):
Where we are.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
I love Call for the same reason I love a
lot of your music is because y'all are not afraid
to show people that you made mistakes. Y'all not afraid
to show people that you flawed. Y'all not afraid to
show people that you still wrestle with the same things.
We all wrestle with, the insecurities like I love go
to die for the party When you started off, he said,
I was wrestling, Like should I write a verse? The
culture got enough cloud chasing vultures out here trying to
prove they work.

Speaker 3 (53:41):
They need attention.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
They can't imagine me not trying to make myself look
bigger off of this Kendrick Mintion, Like.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
When you hear you rap that, I can hear you
wrestling with even write you know what I mean? Like,
but he did shout me out. I mean, I can't
just let this go by.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
S See man, I was telling you right, dot will
throw you at He'll throw you a layup.

Speaker 3 (54:02):
And it's like do I dunk this or not? Because
because I don't, especially for him, because he got so
many cloud chasers. He got so many just so for me.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
For for Kendrick to for doctor mention me in the
song and say, I wonder what La Crag would do that.
First of all, you're paying homage to like my lifestyle,
my processing. It's not like he's a goodra is a
good rapper, he's saying, I wonder what La Crai would
do in this, yeah, this circumstance. And for me, it's
like I didn't want to say nothing. My homie at

(54:33):
He was like, you need to respond. I said, nah, bro,
I ain't. That's lame, like eyes nasty. It just feels nasty.
He was like, Bro, the world is watching, the world
is listening. The man said your name.

Speaker 3 (54:45):
Ask you a question.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
He did ask me a question, and so I was like, ah,
I try. And I really didn't even like it when
I was writing it, and I see I didn't even
like it, and it just you know, so I sent
out the whole album and I said, you pick a song. Man,
I'm waiting. I ain't hurt nothing back.

Speaker 3 (55:06):
So I love the last line on it.

Speaker 2 (55:09):
You said, look, you said love his patience. So I'm
trusting in the narrative. And christ ain't watched the party
die he died?

Speaker 3 (55:17):
What does that mean?

Speaker 2 (55:19):
Basically, like you know on the song he was saying
his on his song, you know, watch the party die.
It's kind of like it's like, man, y'all, he sees
the dysfunction and he's like, ugh, you know what I mean,
And we all see the dysfunction, and we all like,
but if we really want to end all the evil

(55:41):
that exists out there, that means we gonna die too,
you know, because there's evil that exists in here. So
you got to be also mad at yourself. And and
Jesus didn't sit back and say, yeah, y'all are disgusting.
He said, I'm gonna take that disgust on myself. You
know what I'm saying. I'm gonna lay my life down
and let y'all walk across my back to cleanliness and

(56:02):
to wholeness. Instead of condemning y'all, I'm gonna reach my
hand out to save y'all. So that was the picture
I was pain instead of just being condemning. Because when
you see something that you hate, you're likeugh. But then
you gotta look in the mirror sometimes and be like ugh.
And if I want it all to go, I gotta
go with it. So Jesus is like, yes, whack, but
I take your ugliness on.

Speaker 3 (56:23):
Me, you know what I mean.

Speaker 15 (56:24):
So I saw your response to Young Thug when he tweeted,
if you're a rapper and you're a rat, you've got
to just go gospel, tweeny. You try to reach out
and kind of give him that, like, Hey, it's good
over here. It's not a graveyard, it's a garden. Have
y'all spoke, Nah, But I'm down, like thug holl at me.
I mean, it's not a graveyard, it's a garden.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
We thriving, we growing, I got health, I got My
life is comes with the same hardship as anybody else's Like,
you won't get wisdom without suffering, so you gonna suffer.

Speaker 3 (56:53):
But I don't be worried about no warrants. You know
what I'm saying. I go home to my wife on
a rag the basis I'm raising my kids.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
We have great relationship, dynamic, like I got accolades, I
got awards.

Speaker 3 (57:07):
That's not what I do it for. I pay my
bills on time. I'm fine. I'm not in a graveyard.

Speaker 2 (59:54):

the Breakfast club.

Speaker 8 (01:00:01):
Man.

Speaker 15 (01:00:01):
It was going down yesterday in the sports streets because
at the same time that the news about Shannon Sharp
and the ESPN firing happened in Boom, there's this announcement
that Gilbert Arenas was arrested as a part of an indictment.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
So he was arrested, but he's not been released.

Speaker 15 (01:00:18):
But he was arrested on as a part of a
federal indictment a leegend that he operated an illegal gambling business.
So it's alleged that the illegal gambling business included high
stakes poker games that were played at a California mentioned
that Gilbererinas owned. Now he's charged with and there's five
other people included in this as well too, but he
is charged with one count of conspiracy to operate an

(01:00:39):
illegal gambling business, one count of operating an illegal gambling business,
and one count of making a false statement to federal investigators.
He saw a judge yesterday afternoon, not too long after
he was arrested. He posted a bond and he was
let go. He also posted to his Instagram when he
was arrested that he ain't got nothing to do with nothing.
All he did was rent a hood.

Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
I don't understand this one at all.

Speaker 8 (01:01:02):
Media.

Speaker 3 (01:01:03):
You can't have you can't gamble in your house. And
I didn't. I didn't know this. This is new to me.

Speaker 7 (01:01:08):
You can't have an illegal gambling ring, if that's what
if that's going on is a ring.

Speaker 5 (01:01:13):
Because it might have happened a lot, like they have
these high state Pope games weekly.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
But I did not know.

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
You couldn't do that.

Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
I had no idea.

Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
So no, you can't have gambling ring. You can't have
a casino in your crib. See you now you're saying
something else.

Speaker 15 (01:01:28):
Now, let me let me tell y'all how the indictment
broke it down. So the indictment was unsealed. That's why
we were able to get the details. So basically it
says that Gilbertinas are alleged that Gilberenas and the other
defendants operated this illegal gambling business. So what what what
happened was there was this mansion that Gilbert would rent
out and then they would invite people.

Speaker 1 (01:01:49):
Over for the game.

Speaker 15 (01:01:50):
So they would host these games and they would have
you know, women who they would charge attacks that would
act as like the women who were like serving drinks
and provide massages and offering companionship to the poker players.
Allegedly no sex though, no sex listing here, no, yes,
then they.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
Would have you just be volunteering information when you start
hearing massages and stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:14):
That's what it starts to sound like. But ahead, I understand.
I just want to make sure it's clear.

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
And then they leged then for a while, maybe trying
to lead the witnessman, he's trying to clear things up.

Speaker 15 (01:02:25):
Go ahead, continue, And then they alleged that some of
the defendants uh managed an illegal pot limit during the
poker games. So basically they collected a rake, which is
a feed at the house charges from each pot either
as a percentage or fixed the amount per hand and
they invited different players at different times to compete. They
say that they had valet, there was a security, there

(01:02:46):
were all these things, so it was set up. They
had chefs, valet, armed security guards were also hired to
staff these illegal poker games as well, So it was
set up, I guess to be raning, like something that
you were supposed to be doing all the time.

Speaker 5 (01:02:59):
And maybe that's why. I don't know exactly. I always
know that you couldn't have like a casino night in
your crib with real money. I never understood why.

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
I didn't even know that.

Speaker 5 (01:03:08):
Yeah, like I had a casino night, but you had
to use fake bills and it was no real winnings.
You would get like gifts like a basket or something,
but you cannot have real cash. And I never understood why.

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
I don't know. I don't get it.

Speaker 5 (01:03:21):
Maybe because they can't tax it, or I have no idea,
but I never understood if you have a blackjack knight
at your house, you should be able to gamble.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):
People have poker nights all the time.

Speaker 7 (01:03:28):
I know you can't, but I don't know why.

Speaker 3 (01:03:32):
I know that you can. I know it's illegal, but
I don't I never knew why m.

Speaker 1 (01:03:39):
So according to uh, there's a cat go here go.

Speaker 3 (01:03:43):
The top Doglerosa.

Speaker 1 (01:03:48):
Website.

Speaker 15 (01:03:52):
According to Taylan and Associates PC firm dot com, they
listen multiple reasons why it could be deemed illegal. Regulation
and licensing, taxation, Uh that people tax yeah, Uh, just
preventing crime in general.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
Uh.

Speaker 15 (01:04:06):
They did also could be illegal because there's laws that
try and protect vulnerable individuals who would be gambling and
who would be addicted to it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
Zoning and safety.

Speaker 15 (01:04:14):
That's what they list on their website as reasons why
that could potentially be illegal. But in the indictment, uh,
the announcement or the press release for the indictment, they
didn't specify how they got to the charges. All they
did was break down how what was happening, who was involved,
And they did say.

Speaker 2 (01:04:28):
That it involved in this because it's got to be
something bigger, like there's somebody they targeting here?

Speaker 3 (01:04:33):
Who else is involved in.

Speaker 1 (01:04:34):
There's a well, there's five men.

Speaker 14 (01:04:36):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
The all of them seem pretty regular to me, except
for there's one guy that they mentioned was like a.

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
She don't know, none of them regular something, thank you envy.

Speaker 15 (01:04:48):
The reason why I said that is because the federal
indictment itself. When they mentioned the men, they only mentioned, like,
they point out one guy in particular, and I'm gonna
give you the label that they gave him. He's like
an international something or other.

Speaker 7 (01:05:01):
Yeah, they made it seem like his money was coming
from illegal money, and.

Speaker 2 (01:05:05):
That was the problem, saying it feels like they were
targeting somebody. Yes, and whoever was around in that situation
all got jammed up.

Speaker 15 (01:05:12):
Yes, Yeah, and then because the same guy, So this
guy is including a suspected high level member of an
Israeli transnational organizational crime group. Now that same guy that
later on in the press release for the indictment or
arrest announcement, they talk about how that same guy also
allegedly like lied on a form when coming over here

(01:05:34):
and then talking about his his citizenship like and it
also alleged that he had tried to do a sham
marriage to stay here, like all these different things. So
there's specific information detailed about him. Everyone else is just
listed as a part of this gambling thing that they did.
But they specifically had these details about him. So maybe
that's who they were trying to come for.

Speaker 5 (01:05:52):
But that's why I know hood like there's always an
illegal gambling spot in the hood where people go there
and it's just.

Speaker 3 (01:06:00):
What I say, I said, And an illegal gamble spot
that's illegal. You're not supposed to be able to do it.

Speaker 5 (01:06:09):
But with Gilbert and Rings, he probably rented out the
crib and I'm sure there's some information where they're going
to say that he knew it was what it was.
But he's saying, I just rent it out my house
like Airbnb, that I just ran out and can run out.

Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
You gryp to anybody, right, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
I don't know.

Speaker 15 (01:06:22):
But that guy that we were talking about, it is
called marriage fraud, marriage fraud, foster state frost statements to immigration, yeah,
sham marriage, all the things.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
So I don't know. I've never heard of this, Evan.
You knew gamble spots were illegal.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
What my grandma told me.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
We used to.

Speaker 15 (01:06:40):
Like, you know how they used to talk about running numbers.
She always to talk about how illegal that was. But
I don't know how he.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
Actually stupid now you knows, y'all. Y'all are conflating so
many different I heard of what. I've never heard the
case GILBERTA. Rings was called it. I never heard of
somebody doing something in their house. Gambling I've never that. Yes,
I know gambling spots are illegals in the hood, I've
never heard.

Speaker 3 (01:07:04):
That's the same thing, just on a high level.

Speaker 2 (01:07:06):
I think.

Speaker 15 (01:07:06):
For me, my question was if it's his home and
he's just allowing it to be rented. What if it's
just being rented he doesn't know what's happening. I want
to know how they know he is involved in the
full operation.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
At their detail. And that's what I had a question of,
because you could just rent your home and then did correct.

Speaker 3 (01:07:21):
But that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:22):
I had one more because the Diddy document that I
told you guys was going to drop yesterday.

Speaker 3 (01:07:25):
Yesterday.

Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
He's asking for a new trial.

Speaker 3 (01:07:28):
But we won't have a new trial.

Speaker 15 (01:07:29):
Yes, but not only for the prosecution. The man acts
because he can't be tried on other stuff anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:07:35):
But he wants constitution.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
Yes, prostitution.

Speaker 3 (01:07:39):
Is that prostitution the prosecution whatever? Alright, Well, charlat Mane,
Well Matthew Day, you want to know something about pin
and why it is illegal. We'll discuss pin.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
See about to tell you something that you don't know,
like you're a lading yep. Oh god, he just trying
me this morning for no guy, he's just doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:03):
Ask them, asks timlem timm.

Speaker 5 (01:08:06):
Okay, you can see you in the street, okay, Jesus alright,
donk in the Day's next to the breakfast club.

Speaker 3 (01:08:14):
Good morning, you're checking out the breakfast club.

Speaker 12 (01:08:17):
Man, I just wanted to know how you came up
with them. Don't be in the nagy.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
Because you mean, what did I do today?

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
There's a bunch of donkeys out the street. That is
why Charlemagne, remember life where we light are tongue based.

Speaker 3 (01:08:32):
Off COOLi lay a thing we never was saying.

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
On the breakfast club and the words of CHARLEMAGNEA god,
he's a donkey. Oh man, Charlemagne, you've given donkey of
the day to who Now, Well, donkey today for Thursday,
August thirty, first goes to Matthew Day.

Speaker 3 (01:08:55):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:08:55):
Matthew is a thirty year old ad executive from here
in New York City. According to link In, he is
a graduate of Penn State and is a co founder
of Ribbie Media and he is the what is the
film's head of the firm's head of clients success Well,
he was busted for disorderly conduct. Now I want the
record to show he was in Florida when this happened.

(01:09:16):
What Digiankashalla always say about the great state of Florida,
Say it with me. The craziest people in America come
from the Bronx and all of Florida. Now I don't
know what part of New York City he was from,
but I do know he was in Florida. And this
is why you shouldn't drink the tap water ever in Florida. Okay,
when you drink the tap water in Florida, you become
a Florida fool. Right, These are the things they don't

(01:09:37):
tell you on the news people. Now I need the
record that also showed it. I think this charge of
disorderly conduct is too light for set offense. See, whenever
I hear stories like this, I think about two things,
the person who did the offense and the victim, Because
I think to myself, how are you getting a position
like Matthew Day?

Speaker 3 (01:09:53):
What's going on in his brain? Okay?

Speaker 2 (01:09:55):
What substance was he on that made him do what
he did? And I also think about the victim and
having to experience what they experienced from Matthew Day. Well,
God damn it, Uncle, Sharlah, please tell us what the
hell Matthew Day did. Well. Matthew was arrested for allegedly urinating, peeing,
taking a leak, emptying his bladder from a rooftop bar

(01:10:16):
in Florida onto several victims.

Speaker 3 (01:10:20):
This is so dumb. The cops charge that Matthew.

Speaker 2 (01:10:25):
Day into the rooftop bar, pulled his penis out of
his shorts, and decided that everybody below him needed to
be sponsored by mellow yellow.

Speaker 3 (01:10:31):
Okay, this man was treating his.

Speaker 2 (01:10:32):
Penis like a bottle of champagne after an NBA team
won a championship, just spraying it everywhere.

Speaker 3 (01:10:37):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:10:37):
This news report says several passerbys were struck with urine.
Security spotted Day relieving himself and escorted the defendant out
of the bar into police custody. Now I think about
the police in this situation too. Do you wait until
he finishes pin or do you arrest him midscreen? And
do you let him wash his hands before you cut him?
Because I don't believe officers would have to touch his
hands directly in a situation like this, but when you

(01:10:59):
bring a man for fingerprinting, you definitely do.

Speaker 3 (01:11:01):
But I think the officer's wear.

Speaker 2 (01:11:02):
Gloves anyway, Matthew Day was arrested and charged with disorderly
conduct on the premises of a licensed establishment, a misdemeanor.
He was released on five hundred dollars bond. Discharge is
way too light, America. Okay, Matthew needs to be charged
with sexual assault or some type of sexual battery. Okay,
he peed on several people without their consent. Okay, what

(01:11:23):
happened to assault by bodily fluid? All right, Florida, y'all
don't have.

Speaker 3 (01:11:26):
That on the books. What about public lewdness?

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
Okayness is behavior that is sexually suggestive and decent are offensive? Okay,
you gave several strangers golden showers without their consent.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
I don't care that he was peeing.

Speaker 2 (01:11:41):
If your penis is out in public, you should be
charged with something of a sexual nature. And if any
bodily fluid comes out of your penis on to someone
else without their consent, then.

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
You should be treated like a sex offender.

Speaker 2 (01:11:53):
I'm not saying this man is all kelly, but based
off the circumstances, I think he believed he could fly.

Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
A criminal complaint noted that Matthew showed an indication of
alcohol influence, of course. Okay, nobody does this sober. But
once again, man, we gotta move with discipline. You have
to make better choices because the choices you make make you.
He's thirty with a lot to lose, all right, because
the criminal charge may just be a mismeaner. That don't
mean nothing, because the civil suit's gonna cost him. I

(01:12:19):
don't know what kind of paper he touching, but you
peede on me, sir. Okay, I am traumatized. I think
he might have been eating asparagus, your honor, and I'm
allergic to asparagus. Okay. I can't even use urinals anymore
because I know what it feels like to be one. Okay,
I can't even listen to the classic record Pushing Pee
by Gunner.

Speaker 3 (01:12:37):
No more, Yanna, I am traumatized by what happened to me.

Speaker 2 (01:12:41):
The marl of the story is everything you work for
can go to waste with one wrong decision. Please give
Matthew Day the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
Oh no, you are the doge of the day, the dogee.

Speaker 2 (01:13:00):
All the day. This should definitely be a strong a
crime now, because I'm not sure somebody correct me on this,
But somebody told me a long time ago that if
you get caught peeing in public and New Jersey, you
gotta register and sex offender.

Speaker 3 (01:13:17):
May be true today, what I don't know. I've only
heard that because you said it. I heard that before.

Speaker 12 (01:13:22):
Say it again.

Speaker 2 (01:13:23):
If you get caught peeing in public and New Jersey
you got to registered sex Wow, I don't know how
true that is. They say, if you get caught peeing
in Jersey and you wanted the people that take their
pants and pull their pants all the way down their ankles,
and you know, sometimes you walk in the stall and
you see people got their pants all the way down
to their ale. So you got registered sex offender. Man,

(01:13:44):
you get charged with public louteness. Man, you got your
ass out for the world to see.

Speaker 3 (01:13:47):
It's definitely looting this.

Speaker 1 (01:13:48):
Yeah, I don't know about the sex offender Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:13:51):
Wait, oh yeah wait, yes, penalties.

Speaker 5 (01:13:54):
This says possible consequences if charged with lootis sex offender registry.

Speaker 1 (01:13:58):
Because kids could be walking past.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
If you're being in public, right.

Speaker 2 (01:14:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
Penalties for violating public or nation ordinances or facing related
charges can include sex offender registry.

Speaker 3 (01:14:09):
Man, I'm telling you I heard that before. Man, that's disgusting.
If he was out one time and somebody was being
in public and the person just screamed.

Speaker 2 (01:14:16):
Out, hey, man, you better stop that. You don't get
charges of sex offended. Your draft would be crazy. Damn
sa Ain't nobody gonna believe you? You got goddamn sign.
I'm like, nah, I just got caught peeing in public?
All right, Nope, keep the kids away?

Speaker 13 (01:14:32):

I knew it ain't nobody did, none of you.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
It was you? All right?

Speaker 3 (01:15:49):
Now do they know that you're dealing with both of them?

Speaker 10 (01:15:51):
One of them does, and I don't think you said
nothing to the others.

Speaker 1 (01:15:55):
How close in age are they?

Speaker 12 (01:15:57):
About three or four years apart?

Speaker 3 (01:15:59):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:15:59):
Which one do you like more?

Speaker 14 (01:16:01):
You want me to tell you his name?

Speaker 8 (01:16:02):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:16:03):
A damn shame?

Speaker 3 (01:16:04):
No, just say younger? Older?

Speaker 1 (01:16:05):
Which one do you like more?

Speaker 11 (01:16:07):
I like the older one?

Speaker 3 (01:16:08):
How old are you?

Speaker 14 (01:16:09):
I am twenty nine?

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
How old is the oldest one?

Speaker 12 (01:16:13):
Thirty nine?

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:16:15):
And then the younger one is a couple of years younger.
So are they both in the thirties? Where did you
meet both of them on Instagram?

Speaker 3 (01:16:21):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:16:22):
At completely separate times?

Speaker 4 (01:16:24):
Or did you meet one, and then you started chilling
with him, and then met his brother, and then y'all
started creeping.

Speaker 10 (01:16:28):
Yes, yes, I wasn't trying to you know, you know,
take up too much time, But yes I did. I
met one of them, you know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:16:35):
We hung out, it didn't.

Speaker 10 (01:16:36):
Really work out. So I met the older one and
we imaginally worked.

Speaker 3 (01:16:40):
You know, it worked out, you know what?

Speaker 4 (01:16:44):
All right, So how y'all gonna break the news to
the younger brother, because I'm the older brother knows obviously
the right the one, the second one that you that
you not, the one that you met initially, the one
that you were introduced to, he knows, right, he knows, okay,
And then listen, is this a relationship.

Speaker 3 (01:17:02):
That you want with this guy?

Speaker 1 (01:17:04):
Or is y'all y'all, y'all just around.

Speaker 12 (01:17:06):
You know, we were hanging out right now.

Speaker 10 (01:17:08):
But I can definitely see myself in a relationship.

Speaker 8 (01:17:11):
I see wedding bills and everything.

Speaker 1 (01:17:13):
Now can he see hisself with you?

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
Because you gotta figure out how you're gonna look to
the both of them right now. When the younger brother
finds out that the older brother, Miss Smashing is his
girl and everything, you're gonna look a certain way. You're
gonna look like something I can't say on the radio.

Speaker 1 (01:17:29):
You understand what I'm saying. Yes, And do you care
about that at all?

Speaker 10 (01:17:33):
I feel like it wasn't intentional?

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
You sitting No no, no, no no no no no no, no,
no no, don't give me that. Bs, don't don't talk.
Don't play with me? All right, you play you already
playing with them, don't.

Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
Play with me? Do you care?

Speaker 4 (01:17:45):
Be honest, book, do you care about whether it was
intentional or not? Because it's intentional? Now, so do you
care about how you look to the both of them?

Speaker 2 (01:17:55):
No?

Speaker 4 (01:17:56):
Okay, all right, cool, because then we ain't even got
to get in all of that, all right, because it's
and listen, it's no judgment because you are already like, no,
I don't care like it is, but it is no
shame in your game, So you don't don't don't care
about that. But do you care that you're gonna hurt
the one that likes you most, which is the younger
one and the.

Speaker 1 (01:18:14):
One that don't know that you're sleeping with his brother?

Speaker 2 (01:18:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:18:18):
Okay, yeah, yeah, and you ain't. So you gotta break
the news.

Speaker 3 (01:18:24):
You gotta break the news.

Speaker 4 (01:18:25):
And I rather it be you than his brother, because
his brother can paint the picture in any type of way,
because that's his brother, and the loyalty is supposed to
be with family first, right And then I you know,
I just don't want the brother, the brother to put
it all on you and make you look like you
was the one like you was you a filthy hoe?

Speaker 1 (01:18:44):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (01:18:45):
Okay, So I think you should break that to him.
It ain't no easy way to do it, but I
think you should do it before the brother do it.
And and the only reason why I'm saying do it
not to clear your conscious because you just said you
don't really care about how you look, because you care
about hurting him. You can't deal with both of them. Okay,
break the news to the younger brother. And if the

(01:19:06):
older brother still want to deal with you now, you're
free to do that. You're you're free to do that.
But you're not giving him the younger one. You're not
giving him a choice because he don't even know. See
the older one, he he felt like he got it
all figured out, He already got in his head how
he gonna tell his brother.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
I'm sure he came on to me.

Speaker 8 (01:19:23):

Speaker 4 (01:19:23):
I'm just being a man, bro, And I try to
refuse it, and she kept coming at me. You already
and you know how these guys do, especially brothers. So
no break the news to the guy. And then you
still want to deal with the older one. Deal with
him if he don't want to deal with you.

Speaker 3 (01:19:37):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
It was a fun time, but it didn't last long.

Speaker 3 (01:19:39):
That's it.

Speaker 20 (01:19:40):
I heard you.

Speaker 14 (01:19:41):
I heard you, all right, Thank you so much?

Speaker 1 (01:19:45):

Commented onder to have or whatever inboxt do balls about it.

Speaker 2 (01:20:21):
He made the.

Speaker 12 (01:20:22):
Post about it, and I never got on the post
and was like, nah, it's great I don't want you
ured me. I ain't say none of that. And my
old lady he spell played about that. She's like, you
got thousands of people coming and on you, and you
ain't never go streaking none of them females about you.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (01:20:39):
So basically, artist to you feel me.

Speaker 12 (01:20:42):
So I'm like, David, that's potential fans that I'm growing
right now. You feel me. She's like, Nah, that man's like, no,
I need you to. You need to go let them know.
You took it and you got somebody and I never
did it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:54):
She played back, absolutely, because I'm all for you being
an artist.

Speaker 4 (01:20:58):
I'm all for you gained in gaining your your fans
and everything, but not at the expense of your relationship
unless you know that's something that you you ain't prioritizing.

Speaker 1 (01:21:08):
You get what I'm saying. Your lady felt disrespected.

Speaker 4 (01:21:11):
It is your job, your job and as well as
hers right to make sure that both of y'all are
always solid, Like you gotta protect home no matter what,
whether you're married or not, you're in a committed relationship, right.

Speaker 1 (01:21:26):
I totally understand.

Speaker 4 (01:21:27):
Understand your artist, You got your own you know you're
building your platform, that's what's up. That's cool, but it's
a way to still go about it respectfully, you know
what I mean. You gotta let people know what you
got going on for real. All right now, you said Charlomagne. No,
I ain't Charlemagne.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
I don't know what.

Speaker 1 (01:21:44):
I don't know exactly what duvall day it consists of
or whatever. I don't really know the situation, but I can.

Speaker 4 (01:21:50):
But from what I'm gathering, it's like you didn't really
do anything detrimental to the relationship. But imagine where her
mind can go if you didn't, if you you like
your jove hot in your relationship.

Speaker 3 (01:22:03):

Speaker 1 (01:22:04):
You're not clarifying. She need clarity, that's all. That's all.
But that's all you can do, you know, Just give
her that clarity as much as she needed. Reassure her.

Speaker 3 (01:22:15):
You know, yeah, it's done.

Speaker 12 (01:22:20):
I don't think it's nothing like I told her. Man,
you ain't even supposed to be worried by the comments
I hit you the main see it all I'm saying.
I don't keep it from fly biking.

Speaker 4 (01:22:28):
Oh man, Well, I'm sorry about that, but you know,
you just got to allow you know, you gotta allow
yourself not to get caught up, y'all. Is just a
way to have fun and the door respectfully, you know
what I mean, A way that you can keep your
job and your lady even though that's done, but for
future references when you do get a new lady, you
got to give it that clarity.

Speaker 3 (01:22:49):
You know, when you get a.

Speaker 1 (01:22:51):
New job or whatever.

Speaker 4 (01:22:52):
I don't know what's gonna happen, because yeah, that ain't
gonna be too clean, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:22:56):
You got to you gotta make sure.

Speaker 1 (01:22:58):
You got to make sure you are certain, certain systems
are put in place, so I ain't none of this
being jeopardized.

Speaker 8 (01:23:05):
Come on, man, come on, appreciate that many but I
just help you feel me.

Speaker 14 (01:23:09):

I ain't telling your if you let that attention though,
you like that that clip, you like that viral, all
that attention that it comes with, trust me, I know.

Speaker 12 (01:23:20):
But but yeah, yeah, but I liked it when I
went and cleaned up the next day, I liked it
that viral for that It's positive.

Speaker 14 (01:23:33):
It overshadowed what I did for the community exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:23:36):
So that's the lesson you learned. That's the lesson you
learn because you always got to know something. Then I'm
gonna let you go. Positivity don't go viral like negativity there.

Speaker 12 (01:23:46):

A right, let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren
be coming the straight fast. She gets them from somebody
that knows somebody detail.

Speaker 1 (01:24:51):
I'm a long gard that knows a little bit about everything.

Speaker 3 (01:24:54):
She'd be having the latest on you.

Speaker 2 (01:24:58):
The latest with Lauren la Rose you have sometimes you
have details, sometimes you have a little bit.

Speaker 3 (01:25:02):
Every time on the Breakfast club to me.

Speaker 15 (01:25:07):
So we reported here exclusively that there would be a
new filing in Diddy's case because his team is trying
to get him home. So yesterday, Diddy's team submitted documents
to the judge asking for Diddy to be acquitted on
both of the man At charges that he was convicted of,
or to be given a new trial. They're saying that

(01:25:28):
they're still standing on the Roll twenty nine with that
they mentioned early on in their defense that there is
not enough evidence. There's insufficient evidence to sustain the conviction
of the crimes that he was convicted of. So what
they're saying is that because when you are convicted of
the man Act, you're supposed to prove that the person
transferred to somebody across state lines for the purposes of sex.

(01:25:51):
They're saying that they believe that didd he's the only
person ever convicted under the statute that didn't actually make
money off the prostitution. That's the first thing. The second
thing is they say, did he did not have sex
with any of the prostitutes, which we heard on the
stand that all the women and the escorts themselves said
that he never actually engaged in sexual activity with the escorts,
and that he didn't actually arrange the travel. Now there

(01:26:13):
were on the stand they did have conversations about you know,
different audios that were played and you know, different things.
Where did he was saying, hey, book this person to
come here, whatever. But because he didn't actually book the
travel and transportation himself, they're pointing that out, and they're
saying that, you know, the escorts or prostitutes had friendships
with Jane and with Cassie, so they were flying in

(01:26:35):
to enjoy their friends, and then they consented to have
sex after. So he shouldn't be convicted of these things
and he should be able to get a new.

Speaker 1 (01:26:44):
Trial or come home.

Speaker 15 (01:26:45):
So the judge put in a letter saying that the
defense has to respond to did he even asking to
be let go pride or sentencing today?

Speaker 2 (01:26:54):
Trouble is easy to get into, it hard to get
out of. The sound complicated it did.

Speaker 1 (01:26:59):
Yeah, basically they just saying, y'all ain't proved that.

Speaker 15 (01:27:02):
Okay, Well, did he trying to come home? Diddy is
trying to yes, yes now and other things.

Speaker 2 (01:27:10):
Uh.

Speaker 15 (01:27:10):
Drika and Kevin Gates they've finally filed for divorce, which
confused the heck out of me, because Kevin Gates has
openly been another relationship since we've seen him with Dreka.
But yesterday, Rapper Kevin Gates, it was announced that his
wife or a strange wife now Dreka filed for divorce.

(01:27:31):
Now you guys will know that Drika, or maybe you
don't know that she used to manage himent that they
were together for some years.

Speaker 1 (01:27:36):
They were actually married for nine years. Now.

Speaker 15 (01:27:39):
In the docs, she lists the date of separation as
July tenth, and she's leaning on, you know, the normal
thing that everybody says and reconcilable differences as the reason
that they split up. They have two minor children, a
twelve year old and eleven year old and Dreka is
seeking joint legal custody and physical physical custody of the kids.
She's also seeking spousal support and she checked the box

(01:28:01):
to terminate the court's ability the award sposor support to
Kevin Gates. It's unclear at this time per the documents,
if there's a pre net whatsoever. And they were married
back in October twenty fifteen.

Speaker 5 (01:28:12):
Wow, I thought they had an open relationship. That's what
I thought. Everybody assumed, right.

Speaker 15 (01:28:16):
I assume that too in the beginning. But then once
you stopped seeing them together, I figured that they just
weren't together.

Speaker 1 (01:28:22):
Then I really didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:28:23):
Yeah, I didn't the same that they had an open
relationship because they just, you know, I just figured that
they just broke up and they just was gonna, you know,
just handle the divorce whenever they got to it.

Speaker 1 (01:28:34):
I mean, and then it's not just the marriage. Like
you said, he was work.

Speaker 4 (01:28:37):
She was working for him, so it was I can
imagine how hard it is like when you got you're
managing your husband or your wife, you know what I mean.
You don't want to be in the marriage anymore, but
you still have to manage that person. Here he's been
in relationships or whatever.

Speaker 5 (01:28:51):
That's always difficult because you got to figure out how
does the money work? Right, we see with Kevin and Wendy.
We seen it with Mary and her husband can do
and now we see with this because you just don't
get half. You also got to get a percentage of
what you would make.

Speaker 1 (01:29:02):
So but he got kids and all that.

Speaker 15 (01:29:04):
But it was also confusing too because when Brittany Renner,
who he was just recently with, when she sat down
with uh I forget which station, oh Real ninety to
l A. She sat down with them at the immediate
room BT Awards and I think it was Black Cab
and she told him that they got married April first
and divorced made twenty eight Britney.

Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
Brittany married Kevin.

Speaker 7 (01:29:26):
Yes, so they couldn't have she was still married.

Speaker 1 (01:29:30):
Listen, she not Muslim?

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
No more is she?

Speaker 19 (01:29:33):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:29:33):
She's not.

Speaker 4 (01:29:35):
You not when Muslim showing And then she got undressed
like that, Yeah, she.

Speaker 1 (01:29:43):
Got so can he do this because he's Muslim?

Speaker 8 (01:29:47):
Then?

Speaker 15 (01:29:47):
Because aren't they allowed to have multiple wives as long
as you can sustain the lifestoles.

Speaker 4 (01:29:51):
I don't know much about that, so I don't really
have an opinion about it. But I do, I do
know that they were together. I didn't know they got married. Actually,
I just I just thought, yeah, I knew there was
a storyline for the basket basketball.

Speaker 3 (01:30:03):
Wise, I think Laura made that up. She saw it
on social media.

Speaker 1 (01:30:07):
So I watched the interview.

Speaker 2 (01:30:10):
But if you legally, okay, stupid, but if you if
you're legally married to somebody in America, you can't marry
somebody else legally.

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
Set it out of her mouth. Who am I to
be like.

Speaker 20 (01:30:24):
You?

Speaker 3 (01:30:25):
I'm telling nothing. Let bless her, bless her heart.

Speaker 7 (01:30:29):
They're like siblings, said, you call me stupid.

Speaker 1 (01:30:36):
Maybe it was different in Islam, like I didn't.

Speaker 14 (01:30:41):
That's Lauren man.

Speaker 3 (01:30:42):
No, I mean, I get what it is, but not
in this country, not here, not in this country.

Speaker 1 (01:30:47):
Well, because you can't do that.

Speaker 3 (01:30:48):
You can't legally married. I got home girls country. You can.

Speaker 2 (01:30:51):
You can't marry nobody else. You can't legally married girls.

Speaker 5 (01:30:55):
Now, I got homegirls that they date somebody spitting mad
game on you right now.

Speaker 3 (01:31:00):
No, no, no, I realized that, Laura, you're under press.

Speaker 15 (01:31:05):
I have friends in Philly, a friend and she's dating
a man right now, and they've had conversations about them
being together and being married. But one of the things
he said to her is because he's Muslim, he wants
the option to have multiple wives. And that's where I
got the whole the financial thing from.

Speaker 3 (01:31:19):
She said that to me, in America, you legally can't
have multiple wives. Not legally. That is the latest.

Speaker 5 (01:31:29):
Get it all right, all right, let's get it. Let's
get to the mix. It's the Breakfast Club. Warning the
Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same morning.
Everybody is dj n V just hilarious, Charlamagne to gud
we are the breakfast Club.

Speaker 2 (01:31:45):
You know, we was talking earlier when Lauren was talking
about marriage, right and you know, people having multiple wives,
and we were telling her that you cannot legally have
multiple wives in America, and that's just true. Like, you know,
it is not legal to marry multiple people in the US,
but legamy are having more than one spouse at the
same time is illegal in all fifty states, right, So
I don't know why I thought, Utah, you could.

Speaker 7 (01:32:06):
Though, How would you have known that, Laurences, How the
muslim Men do it?

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
You tell muslim men don't do it. That's what we're
trying to tell you. Just because somebody says something, Lauring
doesn't mean.

Speaker 3 (01:32:18):
That there is.

Speaker 5 (01:32:18):
Actually I'm confused. He can't be married twice before he
got a divorced. You can't get married twice. And then
it's something called big me.

Speaker 2 (01:32:23):
Big me is the act of marrying someone while already
legally married, and that too, is illegal.

Speaker 3 (01:32:29):
I didn't know what the technical term for it, but
that's what I was telling her.

Speaker 2 (01:32:31):
What some dude told you, Lauren, something she believed that's.

Speaker 3 (01:32:35):
Used to run through them Delaware chicks. That's why they
used to love them. Dumb ass Delaware girl.

Speaker 15 (01:32:41):
Someone just text me and say, Islam marriages aren't sanctioned
in the US like regular marriages.

Speaker 3 (01:32:46):
Okay, how did we just tell her?

Speaker 15 (01:32:48):
Okay, all right, So basically the other marriage that it
would be one wife that's actually on paper and the
rest of them not on paper, but.

Speaker 1 (01:32:54):
They all saying they married. Y'all have never met a
fe just tell you believe just had you ever met
a family of multiple wives.

Speaker 3 (01:33:02):
Yes, they're not really married. They're not really married.

Speaker 2 (01:33:10):
Angel And by the way, if they are, if they
are all married, it's illegal. If you married more than
one woman in America, it is a it's illegal period.

Speaker 1 (01:33:18):
