who's this? Hey, what's up? And be good morning? And
it's Red. Good morning, Angela, Good morning, Charlemagne. What's going on?
Today's a good day. I'm proud of Joe Biden for

(03:10):
making a good decision of a nominating son of the
harris As as running mate. A couple of weeks ago,
I called in and I was very critical of her
because of her record in the past, but definitely going
into the future. She you know, she has the means
to make amends. That everyone can change, everyone can have
a change of heart when it comes to you know,
seems that did it in the past. And I think

(03:32):
Joe Biden said one of the greatest things that he
wanted the White House to look like the country, and
having a woman of different background and heritage definitely helped
to make the country more diverse and tend bring us together.
And she's a making and I'm jamaking, and we shouldn't
up be voting for her just because she's making? Why not?
But no, not not the guards because we have to

(03:53):
be critical of politicians at all times. It's a high
pressure position and we got to keep the showing them
to make sure they make the right decisions. But I'm
I'm proud of her, and I'm proud of Joe Biden
and Charlemagne. I'm putting together this article right that affect
Jamaica as a small country, on the United States, on

(04:13):
black consciousness and on hip hop, on a hole from
from Mark talking about Marcus Garvey. Yeah for Marcus Garvey,
to Bob Marley, to Biggie Smalls to to Grandpool. But
like all these people that got Jamaica, Saari Safari, Savari
does not have an effect on black coach my friend anyway.
But big up, big up Senator Harris to big up

(04:35):
to Joe Biden, and big up to the Breakfast Club.
Thank you guys. Yo. I want you to go read
this article as this great article that came out in
USA today. I mentioned it a little while ago, but
I forgot this. Shout out shout it out with. You
didn't say that, You didn't say the writer of the article.
You didn't say his name. Yeah. Ni Nicky's soul is
a woman. She's a public defender. She worked with Kamala
Harris and she said that Kamala Harris was the most

(04:55):
progressive DA in California and she said take away. You know,
one thing you can take away from Kamala hiris time
as a DA is that if she had an eighty
percent convintion rate, that means she was gonnat her job.
So and I mean, if if you want somebody that's
gonna be, you know, diligent on their job and someone
that was really gonna you know, focus in on what
they need to do. And if she could get an

(05:17):
eighty percent U pervision rate during that time, even though
that was a bad thing for us as black men,
and I mean, that means she could lock in on
her job and do something. So she's gonna do that.
She was going into November and uh, you know, let's
let's go out there to poor her. She got. I
don't even think she's the less I really do think
she's a political change agent. I never I never heard
about her having an eighty percent conviction rate. But if

(05:39):
you go and read this article about Nikki Soulis and
she's a public defender, and Nikki says, I grappled with
this idea of defending a former prosecutor for a long time,
but I have to say what I feel is right
to set the records create on Harris. And this is
a public defender in San Francisco. She said that Kamala
Harris was the most progressive DA in California. And she
lists all of these different reasons why it was a

(05:59):
couple of things on there that I didn't even know,
especially the fact that she didn't prosecute prostitutes. She um,
you know, sent them to get you know, therapy, to
deal with the trauma that I was like, wow, child, child, prostitutes,
get it off your chests. Eight hundred five eight five
one oh five one. If you need to vent hit
us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
Breakfast Club. It is your time to get it off

(06:25):
your chests, whether you're man or blast so, so you
better have the same duty. We want to hear from

it's going on. Charlotte. I'm blessed black and Holly favored.
What's happening? Yes, sir, yus, sir, good morning, eat too.
But I want to know what's going on, um within

(10:20):
the past few years, like ten years, why everybody's so
got so damn like like sensitive over everything. Man, you can't.
You can't say nothing online. You gotta watch it, you say.
I'll be feeling like sometimes you ever heard of that,
Like like you be seeing the movies, like when people
put in movies like that cry off sleep. I just
feel like doing something like that for like ten years
or come back and be like, YEO, what's going on?

(10:41):
Oh everybody's so fake politically correct. You can say whatever
you want, you know what I'm saying. You just gotta
deal with the consequences of what you said, you know.
And I think that everybody's so afraid of like these
social media mobs and being attacked that they'd be walking
tight ropes and walking on walking on thin nite because
they don't want to be attacked by the mob playing.
But there's so much access now too. Before social media,
we weren't hearing what everyone had to say about everything.

(11:03):
Now everybody's voicing their opinions, and sometimes they're saying things
that maybe they regret saying, or maybe they're not saying
it in the right way, and sometimes they're putting it
out there. They get over analyzed by people. They only
regret when they get attacked. Understandable, That's that's cool, that's cool.
But you know what I'm saying, It's like, let's say
it's Charlomagne. They don't ever post his kids, but he
posted his kids and hate thought something with his kids,

(11:24):
you know right away, Oh my god, there he shouldn't
been throwing this, Listen, this and that, like, come on,
Yoma business like, yeah, I agree with you. Everybody's so
SENTI if everybody's so soft nowadays. But it's just the
way society say whatever you want. Who gives the damn
Let the mob attack, get it off your chests. Eight,
don't dreat five eight five, one oh five one. If
you need to vent, you can hit us up at

(11:44):
any time. The Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy
angela ye, Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club.
Good morning. Now if you just joined us with talking
about insecure? Now, what's going on insecure? You? Yes, you know.
It is the season finale and Esa and Lawrence are
back together in love. But the only thing is during

(12:08):
the time that they had broken up, Lawrence was dating Condolen.
She's now pregnant. Listen to this. Is she gonna keep it? Yes, well,
this is not a good time. We're not even together
why would you want This is not an ideal for
me either, But that's just not an option for me.
I wasn't ready with Mark, but this time I want
to keep it. And it's not like I don't want kids.

(12:28):
I do. So this means you're getting back with her? No, No,
I told you I want to be with you, but
you're having a baby with someone else. But I didn't
plan this. I don't. I don't want this to happen.
I know you can be as involved as you want
either way. I'm good FY. This is a complete spoiler
alert for me. I did not see Insecure this past Sunday.

(12:50):
I'm actually two episodes behind season for your fault, sir,
And you know I did wait a day to give
people a day to catch up, just in case they
didn't see it Sunday. We could did this yesterday, but
I said, well, wait a day. So what is the question?
So the question is, if you were Issa, do you
think she should stay with Lawrence? He says he wants
to be what Issa. He doesn't want to be with Condola,

(13:11):
but he does have a baby on the way. Oh,
this may be the politically correct answer, but it's the
correct answer. That's really on Issa, because no woman is
not No woman is obligated to stay because the love
of her life got somebody else pregnant. If she chooses
to stay, that's on her. But if she chooses to leave,
that's on her too, because she don't owe Lawrence nothing.
What the hell she got to be somebody? But if you,

(13:31):
if you were Eesa, what would you do? Yeah, if
you will, I really don't. I probably wouldn't. I probably
wouldn't stick around. I probably wouldn't stick around to be
somebody's stepmama, like he need to handle his responsibilities. And
by the way, when you say in that moment to me,
I don't want this baby, that kind of shows what
kind of man you are. You can't not want the
baby just because you don't like the girl. You hit

(13:53):
that raw, you had unprotected sex with her, you shot
her club up. So now you can't just say, well,
I don't like her, so I don't want to be
with the child. What kind of need grow are you?
So if I was, I'd probably walk because that shows
what kind of character you've got. So you wouldn't stay
with that man? You want a different man and shut
up eight hundred five eight five one oh five one?
What would you do? Ye? You know, it's interesting because
I'm looking at Twitter right now, and Cassie said she

(14:15):
should stay because they're soul mates and he never loved Condola,
and Malin said Lisa should stay because the love they
have now is undeniable. And if it wasn't me, though,
I think that I would have to wait, wait it out.
I think I would probably it would be hard for
me to break up with somebody because they've been together
for so long. They lived together, broke up, she's been

(14:36):
wanting him this whole time. That was the one person
she was in love with. But I would also have
to take it really slow and not jump all the
way in because I'd be a little nervous. I got
to see how he acts. He was dating Condola, he
did seem to really like her, and sometimes the baby
could bring people together, so I would be a little
bit concerned. Yeah, but that doesn't I agree with you
on that end too, But that doesn't say a lot

(14:58):
about Lawrence's character. You don't want your child just because
you don't like the woman as lame as how, he
just said it wasn't a good time for him. And listen,
I think men should. I agree with that. It's hard,
but he was being honest about it, and I'm Lawrence
doesn't let the type of person who will step up
to his responsibilities. But I'm sure in his head he
was thinking, how am I going to tell East of this?

(15:19):
I just finally got in a good space in my
relationship and now I have to drop this. And he
just found out at that moment. So that was his
initial reaction and so sometimes that's hard. He wasn't expecting it. Yeah,
I think it's up to East. I think it's it's
one of those things. You having a baby outside of
their bond and their relationship can't make things difficult, or
it could be okay. I mean it's just one of

(15:40):
those things. Do you want to deal with that? You
might be like, hey, I don't want that stress, I
don't want to deal with that. I want to fresh
start or whatever it may be. So I think it's
up to Easter. Whatever Easa feels is, well, yeah, we know, Dad,
but we're just saying, what would you do if you
were Easa. I'll tell that man to take care of
his responsibilities. Just because you ain't liked that girl, don't
tell me you didn't like that girl, because you like

(16:00):
that enough to hit it raw. You like the enough
to have unprotected swiner and shoot their club up. Okay,
you liked it that much, didn't you? But what you stay?
They have But they've been together before, right, They've been together,
they have history. They love each other. So yeah, I
mean I've got to raise another woman's baby too. I
mean yeah, but but that's you feel, that's your soul mate.

(16:22):
You feel that, you know that that they have some
type of love and some type of bond. You know,
this is something that happened beforehand. We've seen it in
relationships before. So yeah, I mean, I guess, yeah, I
would stay. Think about Dwayne Wayne and Gabriel union. Wasn't
it the same? Similar something like that together? They're alrea
together by the way, so they took a break at
that time, and I don't know, by the way. You'll
only like stuff like this on TV if this is

(16:44):
real life, y'all be like I how now eating you
better leave his ass? Girl? You can do better. Y'all
only like stuff like this on TV. You tell him,
girl friend, let's go to the phone lines. Lawrence didn't
why we gotta wrap up Eddy telling us to wrap up, Lawrence.
They wrap up five eight five, one on five one.
We'll take your calls when we come back as the
Breakfast Club, The Breakfast Club owning everybody a cdj Envy,

(17:09):
Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now,
if you just join us, we're talking about insecure. I
just tell him briefly what we're talking about. Yes, So
on the season finale, apparently Lawrence has gotten Condola pregnant.
Condola is the woman he was dating while he and
Issa were not together, but now him and needs to
have gotten back together. They are soulmate. They're in a
great space, but he had to break the news to

(17:31):
Issa that Condola is pregnant. All right, well, let's go
to the phone lines. What would you do? Eight hundred
five five one O five one? Hello? Who's this jar? Hey?
Good morning? What would you do? Okay, I'm an staying
Bolt as Lisa and I'm staying See now, why are
you staying? What happened? Tell us your real life story? Huh,

(17:53):
long story. It's a long story. We've been too well.
I was how it happened to you? Yeah, she said,
happened to her. Yeah. Yeah, So I was with him
and I was pregnant when I got with him, and
then we stopped talking and now he got somebody else pregnant. Wow.
So but you guys are back together, taking a leap
of faith. Yeah, I'm taking a leap of faith, I'm saying,

(18:16):
and we'll see what happens. Okay, Well together, that's your decision.
People have to live with the choices that they make.
You make. You're making a choice. If it works, it works.
If it doesn't, it doesn't. She's taking a leap of faith.
I'm not mad at her, all right. I have a
good day. Step mama, stop it. Hello. Who's this Hey?

(18:40):
This is D from Nashville. He d good morning. Now,
what would you do in this situation? Um, I've been
in that situation actually. Um, me and my guy was
together about three years and then we had a little
hiatus and he saw the people when I did too.
But we got back together. We found out nine months

(19:00):
later it was a baby. Um, he had a test
and it was his and uh, I had to end
up going to therapy. It was hard, but we stayed
together for a very long time and now the baby
is like nine years old, so I'm a little older.
So I worked out. Okay, Yeah, yeah, definitely worked it out. So,
um he had a baby, Mama from hell. But you

(19:20):
know I worked it out. That's the other part, right, Yeah.
You know it's interesting because you didn't You didn't find
out until the woman already had the baby, so it's
not like you knew ahead of time. No, I didn't
know anything. Um she let him know, um that she
had a baby. He had no idea. He was thinking like, no,
it's not gonna be mine, but um he had a

(19:42):
test and it was Yeah, so it was hard. Did
you chat? Did you chat it worked it out? Did
you chast ouse him at all for having unprotected sex
with other women? Because I thought between Yalla, that's the
part I had to go to therapy about because it
was like, yeah, okay, like I'm gonna be sitting back
waiting to see if I have on you know, like right,

(20:03):
it was really really hard. It was really hard. The
first thing you do is go get tested. M Yes, definitely,
so so that's the part I was having an issue with.
But um, you know, we worked it out, and I
love the child and all of them. Okay, so this
hopefully I just want everybody out there to know that
raw is rare. Okay, you ain't supposed to be out
here just raw and randoms. All right. When you take

(20:25):
that condom off, it's supposed to be with that special someone,
that that unprotected sex is for your soul mates. Okay,
Jesus Christ and ladies, y'all know when your man tis
the first thing you do is go get that test
and be like, now I gotta go get tested because
you're running around with your dirty That's the first thing
we do. Good test, gracious guys. All right, eight hundred

(20:46):
five eight five one o five one. We're taking your calls.
Call us up. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We
are the Breakfast Club. Now if you just join us,
we're talking about insecure. You want to give us a
quick rundown you, Yes, Lisa and Lawrence are back together.
They had broken up for a little while. But the
only thing is Issa god Condola pregnant, a girl that

(21:07):
he was dating while him and Issa were on a
break and now he had to break the news to Issa.
But they are soul mates. Should she stay now Charlomagne said,
I wouldn't stay. I gotta get me another man. You did, well, No, no, no,
that's not what I said. What I said was I
said it. I said it sounds politically correct, but it's
absolutely on esa. That's a decision that No, we said,

(21:28):
what would you do if you were in that situation? Yeah,
we know that. But yes, if I said, I said,
I don't, I don't know. I probably didn't. I probably
would not stick around, not because of the situation, but
because I think that shows how terrible that man's character is. Like,
you can't just not be in your child's life because
you don't like the girl. Because she was good enough
for you to have unprotected sex with. She was good

(21:49):
enough for you to have sex with her raw and
shoot her club up, but now all of a sudden,
she's not good enough to raise the child with. What
type of you can tell him? Girl? Nay, what would
you do? I think that I would just have to
take it slow and be really cautious. But if it
was me, because we were on a break and he
was being honest with me, I try to make it
work and if it doesn't, me too. Now yeah, me too.

(22:12):
I mean it's cat. If that's my soul. Maybe broke
up with back together? You did this in that break.
I think I might stay all right, but let's go
to the phone line. Hello, who's this Monica? Hey Monica,
what would you do in this situation? Oh? I would
totally leave, But that's just being selfish because the reality
it's Easter's fault. So it's kind of the things that
now she got like put her head, you know, on

(22:32):
what she really gonna do. She cheated first, and I
was he came back, and now she was gonna deal
with the consequences that happened afterwards. So you're saying it's karma. Yeah,
it's what I don't think. You just gotta deal with it.
I wouldn't know. I would leave, but like I said,
that's just being selfish. But it was broke up. There's
nothing wrong with being selfish though, just so you know,
you can be selfish sometimes that's on you. You definitely

(22:54):
could be selfish. I know I am do it, but
in that case, it's one of the things that I'm
trying to be optimistic. All right, Thank you mama. Hello,
who's this? This isn't near how you I'm doing well.
In yourself. Now we're talking insecure, what would you do
in that situation? Move with him to San Francisco and ladies,

(23:16):
pay child support. You weren't willing to be around the
child though, and be in a child's life. Yeah, that's
why I says. But now you said pay child support.
You don't say nothing about. To be honest with you,
he does have a good heart, so he does want
to be around him. So but I will still move
with him to Francisco and he would have the baby

(23:37):
when he wants it and then take it from here.
But I will move with him to San Francisco because
there's gonna be a trance that he's got gonna go
and they're gonna get together. To be honest with so,
now you got a babysit. Now you got a babysit him,
said who him? Because you can't just be all upon
him because you're nervous that if you're not there, what

(23:59):
he might do. And Lisa also has her whole own
life in La so that's a little difficult. If I
was that young woman's father, if that was my daughter,
I would encourage her not to do that. I'm like,
you're gonna uproot your whole life and move to San
Francisco because that got a baby with another woman. Hell no,
anyhow life worked, you got your own thing going on,
you would encourage your daughter to do that. Then she

(24:24):
actually almost said that that she would go with him
if you would, if you would look at it, she
would give him that look like, well, I'll go with you.
Know what she said was, it's a forty five minute flight.
If you remember the end she gave to look like,
we'll just go with you, because he looked at her
like you would come, and she looked like, well, yeah,

(24:46):
she didn't tell you, but I feel like I heard
her say it's just a forty five minute flight. Yeah,
like it's time. And I'd like to say to you guys,
thank you if things of miss Horn, because that story
removed me so badly, Like I'm happy that you're gonna

(25:07):
reach out to her and help her. Oh yeah, we're
gonna get we gonna get gonna reach out to our
Instagram too. I reached out to our Instagram too, So
hopefully we're gonna we're gonna get miss Horn. Right listen, um, everybody,
somebody called in early and said, didn't that happen to
Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wait. I said no, if y'all
notice or not, Laurence ain't no goddamn do you wait? Okay?
Does that mean that's not no reason to be That

(25:29):
is not no reason to be uprooting and moving to
San Francisco. It's Lawrence going to San Francisco to get
one hundred million dollar contract to play for some team.
It's not about the money, bro It's about doing pretty well,
doing pretty well. You're bird, yo. Everything is not about
the money, Okay. Um. I'm not the fact that Marcus
Jordan tweeted us what he's saying. He said as anybody

(25:51):
suggested that maybe they broke discussed the topic of miscarriages
next season. Shut up, markets, we're talking about wrong with you.
Rack it off, Marcus. Marcus's talking about right here, right now,
I ain't talking about storylines for next season. We need
to get sports back off from Marcus Marcus. Yes, please,

(26:13):
but this is why you got to bring the NBA
back Right here. We need Marcus talking about who better,
Michael or Lebron. We're talking about miscarriages for initial season
six to seven. That hasn't even happened happened yet keep
a lock. This to Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking
out the world's most morning show. Morning everybody in cdj Envy,
Angelie eat, Sholom MC guy. We are the Breakfast Club.

(26:35):
We ever spent two guests on the line and one
of only two members that have ever smoked on a
breakfast club. And he's smoking right now. Ladies and gentlemen,
sto no, hey, hey, hey, good monteen God the first
do you pray first or smoke first? When you get up? Okay?
I prayed us. I pray that I could see another

(26:56):
day and up left some more spirits or some more souls,
and I pray that the rest of my family is
still alive when I'm alive when I get up. We've
seen a very interesting versus Battley of the name, very entertaining.
Thank you, my brother, thank you. I appreciate that. Now,
wasn't the battle supposed to be you and Buster at first?
What happened with that? And was that ever was supposed
to happen? Yeah, that was definitely supposed to happen, but

(27:17):
you know, we had some things that was preventing it
from happening. It just was a lot going on. But
for the most part, I really really me and Buster Rhys,
we really really really wanted that like bad like because
we love each other. We got great history together, we
got stories of us being on the role together. So
it was going to be a real positive celebration to
show our music and our skills. But when that didn't happen,

(27:40):
g and Max was on his way to California already
to work with Swiss Beach, So the idea came with shoot,
since X is coming his way, dog for dog, and
I was like, you know what, that sounds like a
real showdown because I always had a love and a
respect for X, and I remember when he was running
the rap game for two years straight and I had
to take the back seat. So I felt like this

(28:01):
would be a very interesting battle because I had to
wrap game in upon my hands at one time, and
he did as well. Do you remember the first time
you met X? Yeah? Man, it was at Ja Varga
Square Man Jest concert I did way back in the days,
and he reminded me. He reminded me because he told
the story of how he created the song get at
Me though, Yeah exactly, and that like kind of like

(28:25):
threw me off and blew my mind because it's like,
you don't realize how much you influenced the hip hop
world until somebody keeps it real and says that now
when you're doing your verses and you look at all
the lyrics right, because I'm you know, we we vibed
and were watching you on TV. We singing the song.
But it's a different feeling now. When I got the
kids running around, I'm like, yo, get up the room.
We got the room because it was like, dam I

(28:46):
didn't know Super setting that back then. I didn't know
DMX set that back then, but it was so natural,
But now it just seems a little It's like, wow,
I can't believe Super said that. I can't believe DMXT
to a song about that. But you know what, that's
the error that we come from. It was so blunt
and all we knew was what we knew. No, that's
real cultural context matters. That's why I said, all of
woke up because y'all stay over there while Snoop and

(29:09):
DMX joination all right, because when you let visions fly,
I said, God damn Snoop the really good lie and
and I saw all the woke people, especially a Wolke
sisters was vibing to it too, and couldn't fake it
because it's something about if it feels good to you,
must be good fight. And it wasn't aimed at you

(29:29):
you or you. It was just an expression that we
had and you called it because you felt like that sometimes.
Like Dmax said, when I played this record every time
my baby, mama, my fiance, every times you get on
my nerves, I played this record right here, I was like, man,
because he knew all the lyrics, and it threw me off,
Like when you were a rapper. You don't expect another
rapper to know all your lyrics from twenty seven years ago. Right, Yeah,

(29:52):
you look genuinely shocked. I didn't know what that was for.
I didn't know if that was because it was Dmax.
I don't know if it was an East Coast thing
like damn, because the coast people didn't like to give
it up for the West Coast artists like that back then.
But now I guess it's cool. I think that's probably
what it was, because I know when we dropped the
Chronic album, we basically shook up the whole industry, and
my mission was to impress the East Coast so I

(30:14):
wanted to make a stamp to where they would respect me,
appreciate me, and love me. Because every time I came
to the Big Apple, if I've seen an EPMD or
carorist one to LLL col J, Kid Capri, wherever the
I've seen, I made it a musk to break through
security and go tell them I love y'all. With y'all,
I'm a fan, even if I was bigger than them

(30:35):
at the time. And that's why I felt like my
relationships with some of these rappers only East has always
been solidified by me being genuine and saying I love
you because you've spoken the battle too. How you wrote
for Doctor Drake, but then you also let other people
write for you. Which one do you prefer? I like
them both. I'll give you a great story. Me and
the DC, that's one of the greatest writers of hip hop.

(30:56):
When he is writing a song, struggling with this beat
we can't come up with, it's like the fourth day,
get Doctor dre Fly from New York in the LA
We all in the studio. Thirty minutes later that it
is done. He wrote Drake and Mush and it was flawless.
And Me and DLC was like, Clell, looks like this

(31:17):
outstruck us on this one, so we're gonna take the
back seat and I'm gonna accept it. And it was
still dre and it was jay Z and he wrote
the whole and soul. How was that session because that
is such a West Coast d that's such a West
Coast feel like when you think of West Coast music
as a DJ, that's the first record. What did the
first record you go through? Besides g thinking? So, how
was that session? Him writing on feeling like that West

(31:39):
Coast or jay Z is a great writer to begin
with for himself, so imagine him striking up for somebody
that he truly loved and appreciate. So he loved Doctor Drake.
That's what his pen showed you. Yeah, people was wondering
why you didn't play it because it's not my record
and jay Z wrote it. I wouldn't have got a
point if a New York would have slid on that
chat and been like no, because if I was to

(32:03):
go up against Hole, I think he would play that
on me like and I'll be like, oh no, you
cheating girl, you can't do that. I remember there was
a rumor back in the day that that whole was
a sneaky cripple. You know what, he got slide lines.
You know what I'm saying, he'd be getting his little
walk on with his with his literature. You know what
I'm saying. We read between the lines like we got
lingo that he really identifies with us on some real

(32:26):
slip cripple. You know what I'm talking about. I got
an act this. Even though the versus battle is a
celebration right in un DMX are cool, when you were
doing the battle, they're certain rounds you felt like you
didn't win. Yeah, when I dropped deep Cover, I thought
I was strong right off the gate, and then it
hit me with a poem going into his ship about
a drive by. And then he said, somebody some something

(32:48):
that all you do is talk about a drive by,
and all you do it's just drive by boom. When
the music came on, I was like, damn, I lost
that in the over here, right in the whole. Now.
You know what I'm saying. I go with you, I
go with staff points. I go with how you set
the song up, how emotional the song is, what's the feedback,
what's the field? And did the song make me get up.

(33:12):
You may get that point or I may lose half
a point for being so in the your shoe. Yeah,
I mean the thing about you and X, man, we
both love y'all spirit. So so it's like X music
is great and you just love X and you root
for X. Same thing with you. But that music, man,
that stuff y'all was making. Man, those the weapons of
mass destruction. It's just it's just different levels to me.

(33:33):
You gotta look at what Doctor Dre was always up against.
He was never like the greatest producer in the world
when he was with the WA and he was making
the greatest music in the world, but they wasn't giving
him that. So when he finally got a chance to
get with Death for All Records and have a breath
of fresh air and some new mcs and a new
new light, he was definitely gonna show his ass. And
from that point on, I feel like Doctor Dre put
his steak down. It's like, I'm the dopest producer in

(33:55):
hip hop. I don't give a where you from. You
cap with me. Everything I put out spent off and
spent off some tremendous and I started careers that they
never died. You ain't put out a from the West,
from the Midwest, from the East and all I'm successful. Yeah, Eminem,
White rappers had zero respect to the rapper. He has

(34:15):
probably put Eminem in a position to where he could
be labeled as one of the top ten rappers. Ever,
I don't think so. But the game feels like he's
top ten lyrics says and all that that comes with it.
But that's just because he's with Doctor Dre, and Doctor
Dre helped him find the best Eminem that he could find.
I respect Eminem, and I can see why people would

(34:36):
have him in his top ten top five. I personally,
don't you know, you've been around a long time. Why
don't you have him in your top ten? Because it's
because in the eighties that he came with like like
rock him, like Big Daddy came, like KRS one, like
LLL cool J, like ice Q. Yeah, the eighties don't
get the respect of deserves. And it's weird because the

(34:58):
eighties bridge superstars like yourself, like Biggie, like woutan Clan
like Nah, Like I wonder why why why that eighties
that eighties class don't get that respect when they're talking
about top ten to top five and all that. Well,
when we can't, we try to take them out, that's why.
But a lot of us gave them respect, and then
a lot of us really wanted they spot just like

(35:20):
now what the little kings do now to us? Y'all
ain't ghost We know geez we did goat we did.
So it's like that's what the game is built a
ball hip hop as a young man's game. It's not
an old man's game. All right. We got more with
Snoop DOGG when we come back, don't move. It's the
Breakfast Club comporting everybody's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
We all the Breakfast Club but still kicking it with

(35:41):
Snoop dog Charlomagne and Stoop I laughed so damn hard
when you posted that mean about Queen Jada Pinkett Smith
bringing herself to the red table talk when it said
when Jada cheated on willis like she cheated on all
of us? Did you even hesitate to post that? Like,
let me not be petty that Teddy Riley to the

(36:03):
Teddy Riley to the table. We're playing, Charlotte man, you
know every moment we get to be motherfuck teddy. If
you don't knocking office as much, you'd be doing on
the pity. And I'm firing off every chance I get.
You dragged me to the table and made me steel
my heart out and pour my souls out to you.
Now I need to get my get back. They brought

(36:25):
you to the principal's office. Man, red table talk Man.
They had me triple team in there. What to do
Sis Grandma and her. I was like, Man, this ain't
gonna end. Well, I better, I've better fix my time.
I'm not that's the last time you were up here.
I think it was a last August. You talked about
the Kardashians and you said Travis Scott better get out
and Kanye West better get out. What did you know

(36:48):
that the world didn't know at that time that that
movie get Out had some similarities to that house. And
I don't like knock nobody or whatever how they get down,
But I'm just looking at the statistics of the men
that come in and how they leave, Madam. It just
just ain't right. Like I'm not picking on nobody. I'm
just saying it's just something strange going on over there.
I've been invited over there a couple of times. I

(37:09):
ain't never win. That says a lot those new because
you you were, you were a person that you know,
you tend to kick you with a little bit everybody.
And I'm cool with Chloe, my home girl, I love
can do Kindie cool with me. I don't know the
Courtney and Kim have like a like a you know,
because I keep it real, so they kind of like
this with me, you know what I'm saying. So, but

(37:30):
and then and the mom's as cool as there with me.
So I ain't got no issues. But nobody in that house.
I'm just giving you my perspective of it. Show looks
strange when to leave that mother, he don't come out
the same way. Well you know, but Snoop, you did
get some backlash for being in the studio with Kanye.
Right after you had let me let me say this,
Doctor Drake called me to the studio because Doctor Drake

(37:51):
was producing Kanye's Out. I don't know if y'all knew
that or not. I may be spelling the beings, but
I'm gonna cut this shit up. Doctor Drake called me
to come get on the project that he was doing
with Kanye. So I said, I'll do anything for you,
doctor Drake when I get there, because it's there. He
played me. Is it's sounding good? The mind sound like
he right? He in the right spirit? He rapping. She's

(38:13):
saying his spiritual was dope. And I'm telling you back
like I want to get you on something, no problem,
put my thing down for the spirit. I'm gonna give
you that because it's hip hop. And I was with
you before you went crazy and it looked like you
back to being normal again. So I'm gonna give you that.
That conversation never come up with you and Kanye, then
any of that come up? Did you have to tell
him how you feel about any of that you was going?

(38:34):
And then one thing about me and Kanye, we've been
real since we've been real with each other, and certain
things don't even need to be discussed. That wasn't the
moment or the time or the mode. It was He
was happy to see me. I was happy to see him,
and it was a brotherhood. It wasn't about what we
did in the past. It was about let's move forward
and trying to get to what we had. And when
I sized him up and seen his mentor and what
he was on, what he was spitting. I was like,

(38:55):
he got it together, so I can get down with him,
because It's been times in the past where I've been
asked to for him and I was like, I ain't
faking with Papa was a Gemini. Kanye the Gemini. Are
there any similarities between them? Is artists and I guess
people that work ethic. They both got that same kill
instinct in the studio. It is killers. Now as you

(39:15):
said that, I feel a lot of Kanye is Tupac
with his aggression and his energy. It's just Tupac knew
how to aim it differently, Like it used to be
a time where Kanye was a perfectionist at telling stories
and expressing what he felt. And then it just feels
like now he's like he's losing the message behind what
is real and what's fake? Like you gotta really push

(39:38):
what you're speaking on, and in the past, you really
knew what you were speaking to and you could be
asked questions about it and you could answer intelligently. Now
I want to ask you questions, just answer this to
be given. Nowadays it's like, Damn, what inn history book?
This read? Not a have you been watching Corrupt on
Marriage boot Camp at all saying. We tried to get
him help, you know what I'm saying, But you gotta

(39:59):
want to help yourself. So with that being said, I
watched the show disappointed. Don't like how they got Mic
out there, but he had grown ass man, and I
feel like this is going to help him. See what
we've been trying to tell him for the past three years.
Cug go, get you some help, get off that bottom,
get in the gym, drink some water. You know what
I'm saying. When you're going through issues, you know, you

(40:22):
lose your mother, you get divorced. It's like a lot
of that's going on in this head that we wasn't
prepared for when we left there for records, we wasn't
taught a lot of the ship. A lot of us
started families and just had to figure it out. So,
you know, we're praying for him, my loving to death,
and I just want to see him get some help,
and hopefully this television show can help him get some help. Right,
it sounds like Corrupt got a lot of unresolved trauma

(40:44):
that he probably needs therapy for. You know, I'm a
praying man too, but I believe in therapy as well.
If therapy something you believe in, Snoop, definitely. That's a
lot of issues in the black communities that we don't
admit that we have mental issues and we need therapy,
We need conversation, we need expression, We need to to
be able to get off what we hold on to.
And I said that earlier. We like to let you
build up and then we take it out on the

(41:05):
wrong person, and that goes with therapy. If you have therapy,
you may be able to express and scream and yell
at your therapist and get that out and go back
home and have a basic conversation as opposed to argument
all the time at home. Have you ever sat down
with the therapist? A couple of times I went to
a marriage counselor before. You gotta do things to keep
this together. And sometimes it don't work with y'all conversation

(41:26):
because you got your views, she got her views. You
know what I'm saying. You need somebody to step in
the middle and be like he was wrong with a
mother man. You've been a superstar for a long time, Snoop,
and people think you just naturally cool. They think it's
the weed they say, man Snoop always happy. I can
look at Snooping. Here Snoop talk and tell Snoop did
to work on himself. I can tell Snoop in the therapy.
I can see you got God in your life. How

(41:49):
did you get to that space? How did you not
lose yourself in the industry? I had it all taken
away from me. You know, I was the dopest in
the world. My record came out Doggy Stay. I was
in the kid. I'm gonna get his book of Wall
records for the first debut artist to debut number one,
all kind of look book to come with it, you
know what I'm saying. So I had all of that
riding high, and then that she was just taken away.

(42:10):
I'm fighting for my life a murder case. Then when
I beat the murder case, my friend gets killed. Label
falls apart, Label comes after me. I'm getting death threats
because on my life I have no money, no label,
no friends. Some of the homies turned on me because
they was paid off, so it was stripped. So I
had to find myself. Then, Am I gonna go stupid

(42:31):
gangster and kill up all of these? Am I gonna
find me and get in tune with God and find
my spirit and my real reason to be here. You
gotta tell me about the first time you went to
therapy and what made you go. Man. The first time
I went to therapy, I was having anger issues and
I just wanted some help. And I'm gonna be honest
with you. I don't want to talk to nobody black.

(42:51):
I want to get a different perspective on me, and
don't I don't think that that was racist by me
saying that. I think it was just I needed a
different opinion in the value because I've been getting the
same nobody gives us. He's snoop dogg, he's a star.
I did the same thing. I wanted to l excuse everything,
you know, pay this all, buy this. I wanted somebody
to tell me the truth phone where I'm working up,

(43:12):
at where I need to tighten up, at where am
I leaking at, what is my spirit? What's my purpose?
And to tune in with somebody who didn't know me,
and for me to just open myself up and say
all the wrong and that I did. It helped me
find a way to just be honest. That's real. Did
you did you? And Gail King ever talk never, and
I reached out numerous times, put the invitation out and

(43:32):
I still got it open. So I didn't want to
put no pressure on or a stressor to do it.
But whenever she's ready, I'm ready. It wasn't personal. That
just was a reaction to my friend. Kobe Bryant was
my friend man at that time. I wasn't trying to
hear nobody say nothing bad about him. And that's just that,
all right? When we come back, we got mold with
Snoop Dog. Let's get into a Snoop Dog Mini mix.
It's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,

(43:54):
Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club.
That was a Snoop Dog Mini mix. Snoop still in
the building, Charlemagne. But it would happened to your stars. Now,
I think, wasn't you opening up a storefront called Snoop DOGG? Yeah,
it's coming. I'm waiting, you know what I'm saying. I
don't want to put that out there right now. I
think I want to wait until you know, civilization, get
back to being civilized. You know what I'm saying. Right now,

(44:15):
we're slanging it online right now. You can buy products
online on snoop dog dot com or you know, the
snoopermarket dot com. You can get that. Yeah, I mean,
you're such a Los Angeles landmark, man, I feel like
you need to have a destination location when people come
to La. Nipsey used to always talk about God blessed dead,
and Nipsy used to always talk about they should have
like a snoop Land, like an amusement park. He did.

(44:38):
He ushould always tell me that, man, like you need
to put together motherfu doggie Land because but they got
fotyounced roller coasters and all kind of hoods in there.
They're selling house shoes and I'm like, cuz, I don't
get it. But when you come, when y'all come to La,
y'all got to come to my facility to complant what
we did Di versus Battle. I think I have my

(44:58):
Doggie Land. We were talking about how you've done pretty
much everything and done so much, so what is there
left for Snoop to do? Like what is still on
your bucket list? Yeah? Well, right now, for the past
three years, I've been working with the Special Star special
needs kids, so we got the Snoop Special Stars. Y'all know,
I got my football league, Snoops Youth Football League. We
got kids in the NFL college high school doing their thing.

(45:20):
But we started the Snoop Special Stories about three years
ago to deal with special needs kids. And I'll tell
you this is some of the most beautiful you'd ever
want to see in your life. To see a special
needs kid come out there and be very, very bashful,
and all of a sudden we get to coaching and
then playing with them and talking to them and visiting
them in time, and then before you know what, that
kid comes out their shield and they danced and having

(45:42):
a good time and celebrate and they're doing things that
normal kids do and it puts a smile on the
parents face. We have older people in the league. It's
not just for kids. It's Snoop Special Stars. So we
had a banquet that we did when we made them
all dress up and we gave them all awards. So
we had a particular part of the show. We brought
a named time me the Clown. There was a dancer
out here. He came in dancing and it was one guy,

(46:05):
a seventy seven year old man, and he got up
and he was dancing, and the dancing was over and
he still was dancing. And when the night was over,
his wife came to me and she said, baby, my
husband ain't got up and dancing. Over thirty years, you
have touched your spirit. And that's where the guy started crying.
It was so deep and it's no cameras on it.
It's to put the spirit back into the community of

(46:25):
the special needs. Have you ever had one of the
special needs kids to ask you to hit the weed? No,
but one of the little nits like, hey, what's up
with you and shire night that is still on your head.
I'm like, what is you talking about? Special needs? And
you asked me like they get your ass out of
this out of this class. Hey, dude, I'm glad that

(46:49):
you're gonna be on that no Limit doc too, man,
because I feel like that's a part of your life
that that doesn't get told enough. Man, Do you realize
that that's saved my life? Like master piece save, Like
I was gonna put an album I call Death from
and Mac ten. It was gonna give me a million
dollars to put it out. It was gonna be on
Who Banging Records No, and Who Banging Records and No

(47:10):
Limit Records was all up under Priority Records and Ice
Cube Labe. So I would go up there to see
mac ten. And when I would go up there, I
would have to pass by Masterpiece No Limits to get
to mac ten. I passed by one day Mystical in there.
He like, what's up. I'm like, what's up? Put you.
We're gonna be at the studio tonight. Come by, all right? Cool?

(47:31):
I come by the studio, get on the song. Master
p like how much you want for the song? In
my mind, I'm like, I'm broke right now. I ain't
getting no money. Give me fifteen, but I'm thinking like
fifteen hundred because I just need something. I come back
the next day. Master he wrote me a check for
thirty five thousand. So I'm like, oh, I like this style.

(47:52):
You know what I'm saying. So now he called me
to his office. He said, what you're working? Though said,
I got this album called Death Flag. It's my hart.
He like, hold on, bro. He closed the door and
I'm like, man, you ain't gonna leave to see that
album come out. He said, don't do that, bro, you
can't make no record. Talking about death Row and Shugar

(48:13):
now you gotta let that go. Man. He said, let
me let me get you, let me get let me
make an offer, team, let me make a proposal to you.
My own boy, Marvin Watkins rest in Peace, was the
middleman to this, and him and Marvin put together a
plate that sounded good. And then it flew me to
new owners. And when I took my father, my cousin dad,
and I think I took one more pressure with me
and this drove me around a neighborhood and said pick

(48:36):
any house you won't And at that time I was
living in the house that was undershoog nice name all
my cards, Undershood Knight's name. So for it. It showed me, damn,
you could have your own sign on the dotted line.
I had to say, you know what that I'm going
with this. So he was like, if you signed with me,
you got to come down to New Orleans. You can't

(48:58):
be out of here. So I can't. Picked the house out,
picked out a car for my wife, a car for me,
got the house furnished through my wife and my kids
in New Orleans, and three years later I did that.
What happened to that? Like the songs on it, I
don't know some of them. You know, I used to
live in the house, and when I moved out the house,

(49:20):
I think some of that was just left there. Or
when I went to No Limit, I bought a new studio,
new everything, new car, new furniture, like all that in LA.
Didn't I didn't give a fu about none of that.
But the whole project was it this record, the whole
death Row like, so it was aimed that I'm assuming
sugar and who else? Would it be aimed that whoever
was over there would he damn what made you? What

(49:42):
made you comfortable to leave New Orleans? I said, now
I could go back to LA. What made you want
to go back to LA? And even New? On my
first album, Everything was Beautiful, I shot a movie. The
record did double platinum, We was on tours, we was
eating the second album, No Limit, Top Dog, I started
double dutching back to LA, calling on my LA producers
more and then going sneaking back, getting a song from

(50:04):
this and a song from this, just testing my feet out.
The third record, the Last Meal. That's why I called
the Last Meal, because it's the last time Mother's gonna
eat off of me. So my mission was to go
back to La on the last album, and by the
grace of God, doctor Dre was working on the Chronic
two thousand and one. Wow, Doctor Dre just found a

(50:25):
white boy named him and him I was on my
last album. Dre liked it. I had on my album
and he normally don't like my when it ain't his,
and that can mix the whole album. No Limit. Me
mixed the whole album the last meal and me and
him got our groove back, and I was like, man,
no Limit got my spirit back. But that's I need

(50:46):
to be in the car with and master P At
the third album, He's like, you do what you want
to do. You can go start your own label, do you?
And I was like, you the realist guy, but meta
because anybody else would have been like, do you know,
I'm fun to get ten percent override and everything you
do from here on knock because I put you back
in the game and then won't know nothing for me.
Let me get back with Dre. We did the Chronic

(51:07):
two thousand and one. Eminem album came out, the East
Side's album came out, We went on the Upper Smoke tour.
Everything was back in pocket. It was like, come on, man,
you know what that felt like when that thing came out?
How did you like you said you were broke? How'd
you go broke out the doggie stop? How about all
the money was being given to me? It wasn't like
who was going to his mailbox getting checks. It was

(51:27):
like it was being dispersed. I was a young artist,
so at that time, labels would give you money, you know,
independent labels like death Row, you know, fifty thousand a month,
not knowing that these is getting three four hundred thousand
a month off of me. But then I'm fighting the
murder case, so they got to take those fine asses
to fight the case and discoveries and evidence and this
and that and that and that and this and that.

(51:49):
I don't know about you get what I'm saying? So
that from you? Yeah, And I can't dispute it, like
you're just fighting for my life? What I look like
telling my lawyer a man, they're stealing money for me?
Can they trying to get my life back? Wow? Well,
uncle Stoop, we appreciate you for joining us to small
and so many gems. Man, you can sit there and
talk to Snoop for em y'all know, I'm a big
fan of the Breakfast Club. I asked to be on

(52:10):
this smoke show, y'all. I wasn't looking for me. I
was looking for y'all smoke together. I'll take two puffs one.
You gotta get to two, right, one. Hey. I just
want to always salute you, Snoop Man, because you are
icon in this game, man, and you know, I'm like,
I don't want to. I don't like celebrating people after

(52:31):
they've gone. I want to celebrate them while you're here,
because you know, just just for you to still be
walking amongst us, a living legend for real, for it,
just like looking at big Foot, the Lockness monsters like man,
that's Snoop Dog. That's right, hey, man. I treasure those
moments that that I could give people that add on
to this legacy. But I'm just doing God's work and
I'm here to do what I'm supposed to do. I
found out how to master me. Man. All right, Well,

(52:54):
thank you, Uncle Stoop. We love him dog in the
moaning baby you are, I'm gonna fatten all that around
your want this man to Stogan Blowers. Man, they're waiting
for Charlemagne the topping gloves. Let's go. They have to

(53:16):
make a judgment. Who was gonna be on the donkey
of the day. They chose you. She was a practice
club bitchy. Who's donkey? The day to day Talky Today
goes to a young twenty six year old queen named
Sydney Parham. You know who Sydney Parham is, don't you. Well,
you may not know her name, but you know her
claim the infamy. See Sydney is the Michigan woman who

(53:37):
recently went viral because she couldn't wait to exhale. Oh yes,
she got her Bernardine and Harris setting John's car on
fire on when she was caught on camera blowing up
her boyfriend's SUV. Don't act like y'all didn't see this video. Okay,
we all saw young Firestorm. Okay, Queen fire Lord using
flames as a weapon, Like she heard Marvel was looking

(53:58):
for diversity, so she just out of the audition for
the role that a human touching the fantastic fall. Let's
go to WDIV local for a news for the report. Police.
This is what the phraser woman charged with arson looks
like after the explosion center flying into another car. The
McCallum County Sheriff's Department says twenty six year old Sydney
Parham has minor burns and cuts. The woman busts out

(54:19):
a window in the jeep, pours gasoline inside, and then
throws a match. The force of the explosion she's caused
throws her backward, but she crawls back to pick up
the gas can and takes off as the jeep begins
to go up in flames. That jeep was all of
three months old. The owner of it, Avery Stevenson, didn't
want to go on camera, but he did tell us
that while he knows twenty six year old Sydney Parham,

(54:42):
she was not his girlfriend. As to a possible motive,
he says he's not quite sure. He woke up to
the boom of his jeep exploding on Wednesday, rushed to
his balcony, pulled out his phone and couldn't believe what
he was seeing. Parham has been charged with arson. You
can see from her mug shot she's got a couple
burns on her face. The Sheriff's Department says she's going

(55:02):
to be okay. She is expected back in court on
August fifth. Sydney, you thought that was your boyfriend, but
as you just heard, he's not even claiming you. Okay.
I have so many things to say. First of all, Sydney,
you should feel blessed to be alive with no serious injuries. Okay.
I truly expected to see your muck shot this morning,

(55:23):
and I expected to not see any eyebrows. But she
either has her eyebrows already drawn on are they are
really really thin? Moral of the story is she still
has eyebrows. Round of applause for her having eyebrows. Okay.
I expected her to look like Freddie Prugan in the
face this morning. I really did. But no, none of that. Okay.
I literally looked at her muck shot and I said

(55:44):
to myself, God is good even when God doesn't have
to be Okay. He could have acknowed Sydney in that situation.
He could have sent all Sydney's prayers to the span folder.
But he was there for her. Okay. But clearly, you
know God had a plan for Sydney because not only
did she not stuffing any burns. There was a four

(56:04):
Trust or a Mercury Sable. I'm not sure what kind
of car that was, but that car was perfectly placed
to catch Sydney when she was blown backwards. If that
car wasn't there, she might still be floating backwards through
Michigan right now. Do you know in that X Men
comic books, when Jean Gray became the Phoenix, she used
to use fire. The ill thing about Jean Gray was

(56:26):
she was capable of doing anything her mind could think of.
The reason I'm bringing this up is because Sydney, you
turned into the Phoenix. The difference between you and Jean
Gray is you aren't supposed to do any and everything
your mind can think of, Okay, especially if it involves
arson right setting some man who's not even claiming you

(56:48):
setting his car on fire. Okay. I want to take
this time to say that I love black people, and
I hate seeing black people making permanent decisions based off
temporary feelings. Sydney, I don't give a damn how much
you thought you loved this man, and I don't know
what this man did to you to make you react
in this way. But what I do know is that
now you're the one with the muck shot. Okay, You're

(57:10):
the one with the arson charge. You're the one getting
donkey today, You're the one people are laughing at online
because you use fire projection to destroy this man's vehicle
and damn need killed yourself in the process. Okay, somebody
has watched the tlc biopick on VH one one too
many times and thought that what the Great left I
did was a good idea rest in piece to left Ie. Okay,

(57:33):
let me tell you something. Man, a wise urban philosopher
by the name of Calvin Brotus you may know him
as Snoop Doggy Dog. He once said, Now you know,
I ain't with that, Lieutenant. Ain't no poom poom good
enough to get burned while I'm up in it. That
has nothing to do with anything I'm talking about it.
I was just listening to the g thing this morning,
so it's on my mind. But it didn't make me

(57:54):
want to tell you Sidney that ain't no pp good
enough to burn anything over it. Okay, I don't care
if you got And I'm not talking about flame, young sunfire.
I'm talking about Gonail. Whatever it was he did that
caused you to do what you did, I guarantee it
was not worth it. Okay. I know everyone was talking
about the Usher versus Chris Brown battle this weekend, and

(58:15):
it had everyone digging into their catalogs. You know, but
I promise you, Sydney, this is not what Usher meant
when he said let it burn. Please let Ruby Mark
give Sydney for him the biggest he ha he ha
he ha. He's stupid. Mother, far are you Tom? You
thought that was your boyfriend. He's not even claiming you.

(58:36):
Come on, come on, all right, well, thank you for
that donkey of the day. M all right. We got
more coming up next with a breakfast club. The breakfast
Club holding Everybody's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy
we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with
Amanda's seals. Now, how do you think you've grown during

(58:59):
these easy times, during this pandemic. I've learned. I've really
learned restraint and the power and restraint and the love
and restraint, and you know, just being able to be
more thoughtful about Yes, you need to get what's in
you off you, but you can practice the pause that

(59:22):
gives you the consciousness about someone else. And I will
say this, it was harder for me to do that
in relationship than it was like with friends or with business,
because in a relationship you just feel like we can
all let it all hang out. I'm gonna say whatever
I need to say, You will say whatever you need
to say. But when you start to really practice just
the respect of speaking from a place if I like you,

(59:45):
versus speaking from a place of like you're gonna hear
me like, it really does change the exchange and it
creates a safe space. Can we can we talk about
the real? And you led the underground railroad the stream
and now people are following you. How did that make
you feel? You know what? Though, to be honesty, I

(01:00:07):
don't want to forsake my spirit of soul or integrity
for this town ever again. And it's not that I
went into it thinking that, because I didn't, by any means,
I really went into the reel like this is gonna
be so dope, so fun, so great, because whenever I
would guess, it felt like such a safe space, you know,
it felt like they genuinely wanted to hear my voice,

(01:00:29):
et cetera. So, uh, but I don't want to I
don't like Hollywood. I hate this place. Uh. I love
because I thought I thought you broad like you didn't change,
like you never change the real to the real. You
all who you are, Like you never change. I've never
seen you slip, I've never seen you die, like you remember.

(01:00:49):
But behind the scenes, you know, And that's really the lesson.
I talked about this on Hollywood Unlock, Like you just
you're so focused on what's happening on camera, but that's
the least of the time you're spending, right, you know,
you spend like an hour on camera. You know, the
most of the time you're dealing with production, you're dealing
with your executives, You're not even really you're not even

(01:01:11):
dealing with your co hosts like that, And so you
just start to see like there's a culture in different
places that you work that is toxic and sometimes you
just don't know that till you get there. The last
year was incredibly drying for me. It's just like the
level of visibility that happened last year was like wild

(01:01:34):
and you know, some of it was associated with positivity.
A lot of it was like negative things that I
couldn't believe we're happening. I just couldn't. I couldn't believe
that I was moving in a positive way, and then
like such negativity would be attached to it. When I
was moving in a way to what I thought was

(01:01:55):
protect women. I was light on and just my character
was completely by many accounts, people felt like my character
was no longer of merit, and to this day, I'm
still dealing with that simply because like a man said
I lied, then that's it, Like there's no there's no
proof for anything. It's just because because a man said

(01:02:18):
I lied, I lied, and that was it, like and
that's how that feels, that is, I'm with you here
and no proof nothing. Somebody could say anything, and then
people run with it and then they bring it up
all the time anytime there's something going on. They're like,
well she did this, well didn't she? And you're like
and you're like that, and they have they have no
proof of validity the best. Then you know, you fast

(01:02:39):
forward and there was a whole any party fiasco, you know,
and it was just like I'm going somewhere to support,
but it still ends up going like wild negative and
then because we're in this very visible space, it becomes
this onslaught and I have never had six skin. I'm
a cancer, like, so it was a lot. You know,

(01:03:00):
it really wore on me, like real for real war
on me. I had like a whole nervous breakdown in
March for real, and not there to pass your tissue.
I know, sorry, I'm just thinking about it because I
was in such a dark place and I know so

(01:03:23):
many people like you just get to a point where
you think, like, I can't change myself, but the world
hates me, and so then if I'm going to continue
to be myself in the world, then then I'm gonna
struggle all the time. And that makes you want to
kill yourself because you're like, it's never gonna get better,

(01:03:44):
So what's the point? And that was a really like
real place I was in, and anybody who knows me knows,
like I'm not a defeated person, and they know that
I really come from a place of joy and gentleness,
and like I needed to make myself the Passion project
because I had put so much work into my work

(01:04:06):
and into you know, not being what people think I
am and proving and all this stuff, and at the
end of the day, I had started to believe what
they had made up about me, which is that I'm
not a loving person and that I don't deserve love.
And if you're not careful, you'll let the people who
know you at least make you feel like you don't
know yourself. And I know so many people are in

(01:04:31):
that place right now and they don't know if they'll
get out of that place. And it wasn't until I
started really approaching therapy and then I started boxing because
I realized I had all this anger in me and
I need to, you know, And I started doing raiki
and I really just started just letting myself be open

(01:04:55):
to like, whatever the possibilities are for me to feel
healthy again. And well, all right, we got more with
a Man de Seals when we come back, don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club warning. Everybody is
DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the
Breakfast Club was still kicking it with a Man de
Seals Ye. And this book you talk about when you

(01:05:16):
realize that you had made it and that you were
you know, you went out this one night and you
were yeah, black famous and people were recognizing you and
how your friends were with you and they were like,
you did it. I mean it requires aggressive self acceptance.
I wonder why it's so easy for people for people

(01:05:40):
to believe the negative we hear about ourselves from others,
but not believe the positive we know about ourselves and
tell ourselves. I mean it's like, you know, look how
quickly cancer spreads, you know. And I think also, you know,
we are made of adams. We have protons and neutrons

(01:06:01):
and electrons, we have positive and negative charges, so it's
always there. I think that's why the whole positive affirmation
thing ends up being so necessary, because it's as if
you're building up an emotional immune system to challenge those negatives,
because your receptors are always there, just as the reality
of being a being. You know, the negative receptors are there,
so you got to work to build up your positive receptors.

(01:06:23):
And that really does take work, and we don't put
enough energy into that work. We're actually told that that
work is corny, you know, or that work makes you
a simp, etc. But it's beautiful when you do it
because it starts to make it where like the negative is,
it's growth. It's like you can't even connect to it.
It feels so unnatural because you've you've done this like

(01:06:46):
shy limb practice of only attracting positive and even as
I talk about it, there's still a part of me.
That's like you sound corny. Oh, I think it's because
we are in the negative world, so like the world
is built to me more so to run on negative
than positive. And that's why you got to make sure

(01:07:07):
your world doesn't run on that, so that even when
you got to go out in the world, you can
come back into a space like I want to be
in a positive space at all times. Listen, I don't
want you around me if you ain't happy to be
around me. And even if you're going through it, check
that at the door. Like maybe we can we can
not even maybe we can make space to talk about it.

(01:07:27):
But at the end of the day, it's like I
want you to be happy in this space. And so often,
I mean, I said a tweet that rubs some people
the wrong way, but it's like I said, if his
eyes light up when his boys call, but they're empty
when it's yes, y'all focus on yourself, sis, focus on yourself.
I think with you one thing you said that's very

(01:07:48):
important too, man, Like you know you have to monitor
who your energy goes up and down around, Like when
I see certain people on my phone, I'm like, yes,
my folks, you know what I mean, and I'm at
the point in my life I only want to talk
to people I love. I only want to be around
the people I love. I don't have time for anything else.
The truth of the matter is, like we I will
always come back to this, like the hardest thing that

(01:08:10):
this world makes to me. The world makes it so
hard for you to have like internal freedom. And when
you have that, you can go work for anybody really,
you know, and you're like, I'm gonna come here and
do this little job and be out of here, you know.
And then what ends up happening naturally is you just
start moving energy, shifting into spaces that are better for you,

(01:08:32):
and you find yourself getting opportunities outside of, you know,
the ones that you thought were only available to you,
just because you're attracting something different. And I don't need
more wealth. I would be more than happy to simply
just continue to work with my businesses and my companies

(01:08:53):
and build those from the ground up and then nurtured
loving space, and that will feed me financially, but more
importantly will feed me intellectually and internally. And that is
more valuable for me right now. And I understand for
people who are listening like there's privilege in getting to

(01:09:13):
that space. Yes, absolutely there is privilege in getting that space,
and I am so thankful for the opportunity to even
have that privilege. But I also know that I really
worked for that, you know, like that wasn't provided to me.
It is available to everyone, even though everyone's journey to
it may be very, very different. It is available to everyone.

(01:09:37):
And I think that for a lot of folks, it
really looks like it's only available to white people. You know,
it really does feel like that. It feels like it's
only available. It feels like it's only available to light
skin people. It feels like it's only available to pretty
people or to skinny people, you know what I mean.
But it really is available to everybody, And I really,

(01:09:57):
I really just I just want us to to do
better at and particularly for brothers, to do better at
telling other brothers like you have everything within you, to
find peace within you so that you don't have to
do the things that hurt you. And at a certain point,
a lot of people, especially men, because of patriarchy, their

(01:10:17):
pain metastasizes into pride and next thing, you know, you
proud of your pain, ye, And what do we do
with things we're proud of. We protect them. Now you're
protecting your pain. And if you're protecting your pain, how
are you gonna ever let it go? Because ego feels

(01:10:39):
strong and ego feels safe. I know about that, but
um yeah, you know, it's it's always fun to come
talk to y'all because I also know there's gonna be
like self reflection, there's gonna be career reflection, there's gonna
be black reflection, you know, and you are place. It's

(01:11:01):
beautiful watching you grow. Seals. Yeah, Seales, we love you
and we appreciate you for checking in. I want people
to know too, Like as much as I just talked
about how degrading and frustrating Hollywood is, you can you
when you find the people that rock with you hold
onto them, you know, Like I hosted the bat Award

(01:11:22):
not just because I was the right person, but because
the right person knew I was the right person right,
And those relationships for me are real, Like Jesse Collins
is my friend, you know, Like it is that positive
love that you have from those other people. So I
know that I'm you know, as I advanced in this business,
I'm in more of a place of being able to

(01:11:43):
make room for that authenticity. And when you do that,
you just create more of a trend for that to happen.
And then eventually, I hope it starts to knock out
all the fake and phony. You know, there's no there's
no air for it to breathe absolutely, well, thank you
so much, miss a man. You we try to say
goodbye three times. Well, actually, one last thing. Go this's

(01:12:06):
my Funny and Black dot com. You know, check out
my production company, my work, my growth. You know. I
want to encourage everybody who's a creative to understand that
this is a process, but that you really can make
a creative light for yourself. And as a creative, you're
going to have to create your life. And in that
we always know that you may get paint on your hands,

(01:12:29):
you may get you know, splinters, etc. But it's worth it. Well,
it's a man, the Seals, It's the Breakfast Club. Good
morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagna. Guy.
We all the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with
Brandy and Monica. Now, congratulations to them. Shout the Swiss
beats in Timberland. On their verses, yesterday they had over

(01:12:50):
one point two million on Instagram Live, so we thought
it was only right that we brought this interview back.
This is when he came on a breakfast club, his
Brandy and Monica. Things have changed. And you know, I've
seen my threatened to delete her Twitter account before, and
you know I've seen them come at you crazy on
Twitter and stuff like that. How do y'all deal with
the new social media wave that's out now? I had
to accept the fact that it's not like it used

(01:13:11):
to be, where you have real journalism and people that
cared enough to try to reach your people and see
if something was true before they talked about it or
responded to it or put it all over the world,
and that you have people at home that don't realize
this is just another way to make money off them.
When you log on, you click, you entertain, you you correspond.

(01:13:32):
This just puts money in somebody's pocket. It doesn't bring
you any closer to the artists because most of the
stuff is not even true. So once I recognize that
most things just don't need a response, Twitter has become
a very fun thing for me, you know, Like I
just I really don't care what's being said. I talk
about what you can. That's part of being a celebrity.
You can't really care what's being a celebrity. Now, what

(01:13:52):
about when it's an old issue that's true, Like you know, Brandy,
you had the incident where you had to correct somebody
unfortunately died. You know, people like to bring stuff up
like that on Twitter, Like I'm I can't sit here
and say that I'm not affected by things like that
because I am, you see, very sensitive, like you seem
like you read the Twitter just just start breaking down. No, no, no,

(01:14:12):
I don't break down, Like, don't take my you know,
humbleness for for weakness at all. But it's it's I
am a very sensitive person, and I just feel like
when people's intentions are bad and when they go to
a place to try to hurt you, like that was
a very unfortunate situation that I wouldn't wish on my
worst enemy, you know. So when people take those moments

(01:14:32):
to just you know, send me pictures of car crashes
or or say things with with with evil intent that
it's like I think to myself, where do how do
people go to that place? Because it's it's hard for
me to I don't even know if I have that
place inside of me to to try to hurt somebody else.
You know, we all say things we don't mean, but

(01:14:54):
the places that people go are just it, it's real.
And I didn't really figure out what the and I
understand that they're miserable, but but but still, it's the
law of energy is that energy has never lost the destroyer,
just transfer from one party to the next. But you know,
it's been it's been a while, so I've I've I've

(01:15:15):
gotten a little bit stronger in that area when people
try to go to that place. But you know, for
the most part, I use Twitter to to socialize with
the people that do love me, and they do so
for me. And you know, I have this this thing
on my page called brandoms and they're like random brandy
thoughts and I just tweet positive things to My dad

(01:15:36):
is from the country. You know that already. But he
tells me like these crazy He'll call me and he'll
tell me, like some great sayings to keep with you
that are just like very very I mean, they they
they're broken down so perfectly. He told me, he said, um,
maggots can't live unless they're feeding off something. Don't let

(01:15:57):
them feed off you, you know, so he'll call me
with little things like that that that remind me. It's
not to say that people are maggots but negative things
because we know, you know, it's just it's just that
if you feed it, it just seems to fester and grow.
So I just stop feeding things. You know. So many
people create their own stories about what you've gone through
in their own opinions, and why if it's not illegal.

(01:16:21):
I don't just think it should great to hear from me,
don't you think that? But I think it should be illegal,
especially with the blows. They shouldn't be able to just
to make stuff up like yeah, that should be illegal.
That would be a whole process of you having lawyers
non stop trying to work on it. Probably is illegal,
but who's gonna do for your everyday person? I mean,
even for your everyday person. You look at all the

(01:16:42):
cyber bully and look at the amount of children we're
losing because they somebody in their high school put something
on the internet, something private about them, whether it's about
their sexuality, their parents, whatever. These children are taking their
own life. A lot of it is, but some of
it isn't. Because our children they start to kind of
find their own way. Think of all the stuff we

(01:17:03):
did when we knew better, right, you know, so you
look at that, you know you're really your children and
the way you'd eventually have them go, not knowing though,
what they may come in contact without in the world.
So if the world was just a little bit better,
it may be just a little bit easier for them
to decipher the difference between what they're taught at home,
what we know is right, and what they're being faced
with every day. What my kids are going to go

(01:17:24):
through in high school is gonna be different than what
I went through. But what I went through was totally
different than my mom, coming up in Noon and Georgia,
in the country where people respected each other, you know,
fellas held the door when you walked in. You know,
it's a different day in time. So as hard as
I had to be to make it through the school
systems where I was from, it's totally different than what
my mother had. She did not know how to help

(01:17:45):
me through that. You know, all she could do pray
for me. She taught me the word, she gave me
the Bible. But how far from that did I stray?
Before I came back to it. So you know, you
really your kids in the way you'd have them go.
But I wanted to be a little safer and a
little easier for them as they out in the world.
If it's possible. You know, that's looking But everybody has
to look within and make the change for themselves to

(01:18:06):
make the world a better places. That's how it has
to be. Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne
the guy, we are the breakfast club. Leave it's on
a positive note. Listen, man, let's talk self respect on
this fine Tuesday. I just want to simply tell y'all
don't lower your standards for anyone or anything. Self respect
is everything you don't finish for y'all dumb
