Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yo, did take a and Charlottage my dad ass up?
The breakfast club is I'm not I love coming here.
I'm never not gonna come here. You guys are good
to me, and Laturn them always gonna be good to
a lot of people in hip hop generation. The breakfast
club is where people get the information on the topics,

(00:21):
on the artists and everything like that. In that aspect,
radio still important the breakfast club. When my name come up? Respected?
Did your time to get it off your chests? Whether
you're man or blast, so you better have the same
industry we want to hear from you on the breakfast club. Hello,
what was this? Hey? Je what you call the bro

(00:42):
in Brockton? Hey, get it up your chest? Brockton, Massachusetts.
Good morning name last excuse me, I'm sorry I said
good morning. Oh good morning everybody in there. Um, so
last week you guys had I want to say. Her
name is Lynne Wickfield? Doctor Linne Wickfield is her name
doesn't actor? She was encouraging people to like invest in

(01:07):
their full one case. I believe that's what I heard.
I'm a financial therapist myself. Um, A lot of people
don't know that full one case are like a secret
UM partnership with the government, and the government's never our friends.
So UM we've been helping people roll their money over
from full one caves because COVID hits. A lot of

(01:27):
people took massive hits into their plans and a lot
of people don't know what they're investing into when they
do it. But I don't know if she knows that.
Because we've been educating people's been in business for like
thirty plus years. UM lost a few businesses due to COVID,
but now we're like saving them so that they can
cover all their theirs. I call it CYAA coveyr asking

(01:50):
your assets assets and eat your assets. That sounds wild.
Now I want to ask in your assets. I find
answer you a question about that then, because I know
a lot of times people are encourage you to invest
in the farther one k because your company if your
company doesn't match. And then the second question I have
is it a good idea to take that money out

(02:12):
when it's down. So there's four tinks of life, and
that's what we go around and teach people because there's
a fourth tink, there's a lifetime income safe where you
can we make a lot of money in our lifetime,
just by graduating from college and whatever the case may be.
So ye as a match is good, we always tell
people do the match, don't go above your match because

(02:33):
you're pretty much given free money to the government. And
the tax frame right now is like what thirty seven percent,
I believe, So if they want to take fifty percent,
day can and there's nothing you can do. So people,
depending on how much it's in your full one k,
you can roll it over and take no hit. That's
called a ten thirty five has changed, so you can
move that over there and then you don't get penalized.

(02:55):
Thank you. Damn man, damn man, you just hung up
on or a role. I think you hung up on
him because you don't want her competing with Lynn Richardson.
I think Len Richard Wison was kind of wrong some
of the things he said. Hello, who's this hi business?
I was there from Maryland? Hi. How are you sir?

(03:16):
I'm good? How are you guys? Less Black and Holly Favored?
What's happening? What's going on? Um? First of all, I
wanted to congraduate you all for two years presly like
you three and also like all of your crew. It's
a great job, and thank you for doing everything that
you do. Also, I wanted to add envy about real estate,
like how did you get into it? All? Right? What

(03:38):
made you want to do that? Um? I wanted to
get out of my mama's house. My dad's a police officer.
He's a retired police officer, and his rules are very strict,
and I wanted to get out. Um. So I saved
my money and I bought a house that was like
an hour and forty minutes from my job, but at
least I had a home, and after falling asleep a
couple of times driving home out at the sell a

(04:00):
house after like four or five months. And when I
sold a house, I made like one hundred grand and
those four or five months, and then I just started
buying houses and flipping them. And I'm sorry, what about ye?
How did I get into real estate? I mean, I
first bought my first house like six and a half
years ago, a two family house, so that I would
have some income coming in to help pay the mortgage.

(04:22):
Then I bought three different properties and Detroit, and then
I bought a couple more properties in Brooklyn as investments.
How old are you? Yeah? Well now it's the time
I bought my first home at twenty two years or
I bought my first property at twenty two, thank you.
And now's the time because money is so now was
the time. Money is cheap. That means the interest rates

(04:42):
are very low, as the lowest we've ever seen. It's
like two point seven. You can even get two point
six between two point six and two point eight, so
that means money is low. That means you they're not
charging that much interest. I saw one of the things
Charlotte megne for sending me his book last week, and
I wanted to ask empty, well, you got to air
off people time, but I air out people because he's
a snitch. That's what snitches do. All right, Well, thank

(05:07):
you guys, fresh up in my car. I love you, Yes,
I love you too. But the real reason is Charlemagne
told six nine he would do something to him. So
I'm hoping that Charlomagne one day said he'll do that
to me. That's what I'm gonna keep stitching. What I told.
What I did with nine was called hyperbole, sir, Okay, okay,

the line right now, Chris rock the Legend, the Walking Memorial.

(10:13):
There you go, Chris Rocking Memorial. Remember Jay said that
on the Husband remix. Jaz said, I'm a walking memorial.
Only a few people get that, by the way, Okay, okay,
I'll take it. I imagine your question, because you've lived
through a lot of these injustices, cops getting no punishment
for things that happened to black people, how do you
feel today? You know, there's just two levels. Hey, you're

(10:33):
disappointed and you're hurt by what happened. And it's not
just the cop. Remember everyone in the chain of command
should have been the conditional system. Yeah you know what
I mean, Like like whoever signed the papers that said okay,
go get up, you know, go get them should be
in there too. I'm also just upset that I'm used

(10:55):
to this. So it's sad that we're just here, you know,
And and her name is going to go on a
stack of other names, you know, And there's a chance
that three months from now, that we're so busy with
the next one that we forget about Brianity. That's you know,
not on a purpose, but just you know, the bodies

(11:17):
just keep piling up. What do you tell your daughter?
You know, because your daughter is out there, she's in school,
and what do you tell her? How do you tell
her to move to make sure that she's safe? Uh?
You know, fortunately, you and I and everybody you know,
us five being you know on the radio right now,
we live lives that because of our economic status, we're

(11:40):
not exempt from what's going on, but we kind of,
you know, we we're kind of on a hill and
we get to watch what's going on, so we're a
little a tad safer. But yes, I do tell my
daughters to keep their eyes open, in their ears and
be alert and just know where they are at all times.
But you know, we've been blessed, so I'm not really

(12:02):
worried about the cops knocking down my door right now.
But I realized that, you know, you know, it's not
even about my daughters. It's like my cousins and my
nephews and you know that have like normal jobs that
are really out there. That's interesting to hear you say
that because I remember watching you getting pulled over all

(12:23):
the time, and you're rich, you're famous. How have you
ever felt free in this country? You can't possibly feel exempt? No, no,
I don't feel I wouldn't say exempt, but I do.
You know, like when you punch my name up, even
if you don't recognize me, somebody says something right. You know,
I don't want to sound like a rapper, but I

(12:43):
am Chris Rock. And you know, you know, membership has
its privileges, but every now and then you you forget
your cards. Very true, Chris, You were in Yellow Springs?
How is that for you? Performing in the cornfield? I
love Yellow Spring? People that don't know Yellow Spring. Dave's

(13:06):
Chappelle the the honorable all praises due to Honorable Bay Chappelle.
Uh has it's kind of running like a like a
comedian summer camp and a Yellow Springs, Ohio that's his hometown.
And Dave's kind of like the unofficial mayor of the town,
and he, uh, you know, Dave's got a bunch of
land and he kind of set up a stage in

(13:28):
a cornfield and it's, uh, everybody's socially distant. We all
got a rapid COVID test. So you land your plane lands,
you get off the plane, you get tested, You wait
your fifteen minutes or twenty minutes, however long it takes.
And once you get to your negative tests, then they
give you a wristband. And were you nervous while you

(13:50):
were waiting for your results? Were you nervous? I've been
pretty separated, you know I've been, you know, I'm you
know I haven't been, you know, in the clubs, in
the underground for the flight, the flight, you know, traveling. Nah,
I got I got my old flame. Yeah it wasn't,
you know, it wasn't. He didn't fly. He didn't get
there the same way you got their eight. Yeah, we

(14:11):
definitely hit me off. You can get on my plane,
all right. We got more with Chris Rock when we
come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Go more. Hey,
Charlomagne the guard here and I just want to wish
him Marry Christmas to all my credit cards. Cameras out there.
Did the season to find you a camera friend, so

(14:32):
you can save some money in any major department store
in America. The Breakfast Club owning everybody is DJ Envy
and Jela Yee. Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast
Club was still kicking it with Chris Rock. How many
calls did you get from the Democratic Party after your
statement that Democrats worse than COVID nineteen by focusing on

(14:53):
impeachment over the pandemic, or did you even get calls
from the other side like would you like to come
on Fox and talk about it? No, here's what that
And here's the problem with everybody. No one reads the
whole thing. Everybody just reads the headline, headline. And I'll
tell you this. A friend of mine, Mark anne Off,
he owns a salesforce, you know, salesforce, that computer software

(15:16):
and company. They have buildings everywhere. He called me up
and go off, you are absolutely right. Now it's the
billionaire calls me up and tells me you're absolutely right. No, wide,
the billionaire read the whole article. And then the article.
I say, Donald Trump is like the movie The Last Emperor.
He's a five year old running the country. Now, if

(15:38):
you think a five year old is running the ship,
you do have a responsibility to actually look for the icebergs. Now,
That's what I really meant. And to say so, if
Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats believe Donald Trump is competence
and they just disagree with his policies, then everything I
said was wrong and I apologize. But if you believe

(16:01):
Donald Trump is totally incompetent, in moral individual who shouldn't
be president and is unqualified to do this job, then yes,
it is your job to not get caught up emotions
and to actually look for the icebergs that are coming

(16:23):
towards America. Yeah, so you know, yes, I'm a Democrat.
I'm to Biden. I'm all you know what I mean,
I'm all in. But as the smarter people, you have
more responsibility. That's where the checks and balances come in.
I agree. You said, folks give Adam Sandler to benefit
of the doubt when it comes to weird roles, and
you want that for yourself. What did you mean by that, Chris,

(16:45):
Because some people would say, Christie, I love, I love.
I think Adam Sandler was robbed. I mean I thought,
why Kim was great in the joke of Man, How
did Adam Sandler not get nominated? That is that? Yeah? Yeah,
all this role stuff whatever, that's that's literally my best friend.
I love him like like a brother, and he was robbed.

(17:10):
Uncutting the movie and you're working on a new movie.
You're working on a new movie with him, right, Yeah,
I'm trying to im It's weird. It's like all this
therapy and all this stuff was like I got my
brain back, like I was having a hard time concentrating.
But now I'm just writing a lot lately. So um,
I wrote the script of About a year Ago to me,

(17:30):

When I first went when I moved back to New

(24:56):
York almost ten years ago, there was a woman that
an apartment complex and she told me, she said, Charlomagne,
come out and talk to you. She said, you really
need to watch out for dj Envy said why. She said,
because he's got a little got a little friend that
he visits over head and that looks just like you.
I think you're his type. He's short and short, ballhead,
same complexion and comes over here all the time. That

(25:19):
was my friend, little Sean I went to college with.
That's one of my best friends. I go. I used
to go visit him all the time. He used to
stay in the apartment buildings as Charlomagne. That's why she
said that. But let's talk about the guy that got
on YouTube and was like, his name is glitter Stick,
and he said that you used to take a bus
to come see him and give him that penny penny.
That's now both y'all delect them. But that neither those

(25:40):
situations to do. What y'all goodbye times we don't we're
talking to neither one of y'all. Neither one of y'all
side got anything to do. Let's let's go to one
person piece of lessons. Who's this? Hey me, man, you're
using my friends on the radio, Sean Stone. I meant

(26:02):
to put something in your cash after the other day.
I did, but but that wasn't the right You sent
me the wrong cash. All right, So Sean, let me
ask you a question. You listen to the show every morning, right, Sean,
the way this man flirts with me is it? Is
it disrespectful to my wife the way Envy flirts with me.
So so the thing is, I've been listening to this show,
but man, a long showing them. Man, you will lose

(26:23):
this game. The reason why even the listeners you flirt with.
The dude took call on the brank something crazy and

I mean? What are you talking about? Yeah, you will
lose this game. You brought envy your butt, a moon
butt of your blood. You will flirt with envy way
too much. Bro. See so I think your wife will

(26:45):
be up to envy. Wife will be up there at you.
Thank you san. Who asked you? Somebody asked you, somebody
else I remember asking. Am all right, there's no moral
of the story. Stop flirting with me. The moral of
the story is, let's get the room. This guy is crazy.

you know, Agela, he's a little twisted. She went out drunk.
She had a good time, a little intoxicati, just to
let you know, see you hi, Oh here you are.

(27:51):
Bad morning, Good morning, je. So you're working already this morning. Yeah,
I'm on set. I'm I'm in surround. So I'm shooting
a movie called and from Toronto, so my call time
will be pretty early. So right now, you and my
my humble abode. This is my trailer, this is my
home away from Yeah. I saw you enjoying yourself to
two Change Gray Area yesterday on set and you had

(28:14):
wood your house and um, acting like you asking the rhythm. Yeah,
for a second, you know, I was in there feeling myself. Man,
it was a big day for me, my my special
release yesterday. So congrats, thank you man. Zero given. So
I stepped on set with zero to give and showed that,
uh while basically keeping my headphones on, listening to a
time of song and what he didn't know what was happening,

(28:35):
So he started dance with me. It was a good time.
You hadn't be there that whole specially in your house. Uh. Yeah,
the whole special was from the comfort of my own home.
So it was about yourself. So it was just your
your family, was your your fans and your crowd. No,
we did uh, I did it to where I had
people come to. We did like a order because of COVID,

(28:56):
so you had to do like audiences, but they had
to go through regulars. They had to do the protocols,
you know, the COVID checks, and we had to get
them tested and they had to get tested three days before,
et cetera. It was it was a lot, but we uh,
you know, we pulled it off. The whole point behind
it was just to uh put a creative, creative aspect

(29:16):
back on my uh, my side of comedy that was
away from what I've done in the past. So we
went to the highest of the highwood stadiums, the theaters,
the arenas and and this one it was about going
backwards and going back to the intimate setting. And the
intimate setting was one of what felt it looked like
a living room and uh and it was more of

(29:37):
a conversation than a performance, you know, an honest conversation
with h with my point of view and how I
feel about a lot of things today in in in
my life. You know, everything is coming from from my life,
my experiences, my feelings, and the biggest frustration is just
people and just the times. So I tried to do

(29:57):
it in a way to where I could be truthful
but still get some laughs and still be funny, but
in the most way just say, y'all annoying us. Now,
you know people are They've turned into some annoying from people,
and this is this is why I feel that way,
and that why at the end of the special you
talk about you tell your wife you had a bad
dream that you did a stand up saying things you

(30:17):
would never say. Was that your personal way to kind
of like protect yourself against these canceled culture people. Yeah,
you know, Look what what people truly don't understand is
that you know, now I'm I'm a CEO. I'm a
CEO of a lot of different things, So you know,
my actions become falls for so many So the shud

(30:40):
I say and do that could be considered or deemed
bad or inappropriate. You know, it can be life changing
for the people that work underneath my umbrella. Whether it's
for Heartbeat, whether it's for laught out Law, whether it's
for laft outlaw radio, I mean heartbeat ventures. I can
go on and on. Nobody even has an idea. Don't
forget our come, don't forget our company, said, nobody even

(31:02):
has an idea. How many entities I have? So as
you build these things underneath it, there's a pyramid, there's
a bunch of branches to intrigue. So my consequences are real.
So I have to walk on egg shelves because everything
at this level is a thing or becomes a thing,
and nothing is brushed over. So, you know, and me

(31:24):
doing and joking about the things that I joked about
at the end, saying it was a bad dream. You know,
that was a that was a it was that was
my way out of it. I can't even tell you
how many things I've already got about the joke, you know,
where I said my daughter might be a help. There's
a whole activity. I saw that, I saw people writing
about that already already already got that. Um what else

(31:45):
there was, Oh, the things about you know, my ex wife,
it's that's come up. There's uh me and my attitude
for being privileged in life, that's now and saying you know,
I'm complaining about that, and my my child, uh, my
child's my child's affiliation with me and my lifestyle. Wise,
he complaining everything becomes a thing. The people are already

(32:09):
complaining about it. You know, people already get here to say, yeah,
I mean for the for the large question of it,
it's it's an amazing response. I already see and know
what the numbers are, which is astronomical. Um. But I'm
just saying that there's in this time, what really is
the key thing that people gravitate towards. It's just something

(32:32):
to say, Now, how did you how did you deal
with the pandemic? Because you you are somebody that always travels,
always on the road, always working, but now you have
to set your ass down. So how was that for you?
And you have corus tough, you know, Yetta think about it, man.
I've been home. I've been at home for it's it's
going on a year over a year now because I
got injured, remember my back. Yeah, I was set down

(32:55):
for that, and then after that the pandemic hit. So
I literally did this was a result of the pandemic.
I was, I was home and I was like, yo,
I gotta figure it out. I gotta do something. I
gotta put the pin to the pad. So I started
to create the stand up and when they finally opened
up Los Angeles, I went and found like a restaurant

(33:18):
that was outside and it was like ten people, you know,
that would come ten to twelve people that would come
here on a daily and you couldn't legally do shows
or performances in California, so it just looked like I
would pop up at the same time every day while
these people were there, and they would just get a
surprise hour of me working out belts. And that's how

(33:42):
I started to work on the material. When I did
that for like three months, and I was like, yeah,
I think I got it. I got I got my
special I'm gonna do this for my house. But that
was you can't say I think I got it at
a time like this. Kevi Well well yeah, you know
what I mean. Well yeah, well, Kevin Hard is seeing
we got more with Kevin Hart when we come back,
Dope move a Specialists out right, zero Apps. It's the

(34:05):
Breakfast Club. Good Morning. I'm always run so the Lord
to shoot and a Lord of the fun Morning. Everybody
is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are
the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Kevin Hardy
as a specialist out right now. You know, Kevi, I
was um. I was on Twitter yesterday because I saw
your name trending, so I clicked on it just to
see if it was one of the jokes or something

(34:26):
that picked people up. But it wasn't. It was a
look alike from from Zambia said he still your face.
I thought it was somebody playing with a filter on
social media. I'm not gonna lie. That's that's him. That's him. Scary, Yeah,
that's him. That's that's cool. Like you know when people
say somebody looked like you, you look at him, he's like, man,

(34:47):
I may not be attracted like I maybe something's face.
And then this guy actually looks like me, Like it's
not a joke, No, it's not my brother. He looked
exactly like we were birth from the same woman. But
I thought he was playing with a filter like things.
But that's him. That's the second time I've seen. It's

(35:09):
crazy you hand it off because when you see it,
like do you be like do you hit him up
and be like yo, you really do look like me? No,
that's weird. What I'm saying, and I've seen you. I've
seen you start to ride bikes now. Uh, man, I'm
out there. I'm on the road bikes heavy. Charlotta Mane
was making fun of me because I wear my little

(35:30):
gel pants and I'm make the little gel pants got
pad your ass? Hey, I talked about that and especially
it was all good till I gave somebody that visual.
You know, it was the morning time. I wasn't where
I was supposed to be. I was at the at
the lowest point of mass But you know, I'm I'm
out there. I'm miles right now and I'll I'll give you,
you know, anywhere between that eighteen to twenty five mile ride,

(35:51):
just as a casual ride. And I think when I
get back to some good weather, I'm gonna start pushing it,
probably trying to put in somewhere around one hundred and
twenty five miles a week. That's my news saying, you
gotta get hobbies. I'm getting old. Man. Did go back
to your twin real quick? Have you ever done your
DNA your ancestry test to see where your roots come from?

(36:12):
Oh yeah, all the time. No, Charlemagne, you got family
and Zambia. That's all. Yeah, Charlemagne, all the time, I
check my later checked yesterday again back in to see

(36:34):
who I got where I've never been. What do you
want me to do when I found him? What do
you want me to just just to know you got
the connection to the motherland? That's all what you say?
What's up, cousins, I'm coming to do a show. I
don't understood that. That's that's not my cup of team.
People want to find family, then they go do that
awkward meeting. Hey, you know when my home down out

(36:57):
that her dad wasn't her real dad from her DNA
tests and she actually found her real father, but her
whole life she thought this man with her dad, you know,
that's called that's called the truth. You're gonna search it
for it, you'll find it. But what was wrong with
the dad you had? Her lay more successful? But I'm saying,

(37:18):
what was wrong with the dad she had? Why did
you what happened one day to you say? She wasn't
looking for her and she's there a DNA test and
that's how she happened to find out why? It's my
question why what was wrong with what you thought your
DNA you say nothing wrong. I don't know why I'm

(37:41):
gonna go and search to see what may or may
not be. Everything's been cool with us far. Yeah, this up.
I don't want to I don't want to know nothing.
I got no des No, it wasn't looking for her
roots to see like where her ancestry was from you.
She ain't been the same every since. She confused trying
to force a relationship with a man is because her

(38:04):
real father's wife is mad about it, and she's her
father's wife is like, oh, she wants money, but it's
really her dad. So dudes to what that dad is
just going to turn on love? How old is she?
She's grown? She's like forty. Yeah, I blame this one
on you being drunk and I'm on you having a

(38:27):
good time last night. You watch the verses? Are you
into versus? Uh? Yeah, I've watched something. Jeez, Gucci, who
you have? I don't know, man, don't seem safe. Ain't
in it. I ain't in Yeah. I did see you

(38:49):
at Dave Chappelle and um in Ohio. I tell you
do your stand up there and that's where you rebelled
that you actually had coronavirus. Yes, yes, I went down
to Campship. Hell, that's what I call it. Davis. Dave
is taken over this area in Ohio. Man, He's turned
it into something very amazing for the economy there. He

(39:10):
was doing shows through the pandemic. He was basically giving
jobs to thousands of people who had lost him. You know.
He really kept a large part of that city afloat.
And I came down to do one of the shows.
This is when I got real comfortable with the sets.
So I wanted to see what the reception was, what
it was going to be, and uh, you know, Dave
said it up nice. I went down there, did well,

(39:34):
got to see his whole layout, what he's doing, what
the plans are, and it was mind blowing. It was
mind blowing. But I'm thankful for that because that was
one of the tests that I needed outside of the
small environment that I was performing in to see where
the jokes were. So that's when I gave me confidence
that the set was where I wanted it to be.
I want to ask you about one of your jokes
from the special zero as given. Have you actually been

(39:57):
to Seinfeld's house? Yes, but this wasn't It wasn't for
what I did in the joke came from somebody else.
That came from another person, a white person with brick
oven pizza. It was just funny to put Seinfeld on it.
You know, uh zero was given and then I go,
I had a dream. I was at Seinfeld's house. Everything

(40:19):
that was the dream, calling my daughter all the bad things.
That's the dream. That's the thing that I wish I
could say and joke around with sign part of that part.
But you know, people probably now say Kevin's him, he
was never there. Pizza who knows still say chart man,
thank you, and some grads on the new baby, congratulations
and man four it's great, guys. I'm excited. Old on,

(40:46):
somebody want to ask you, you know, somebody want to
ask you some questions. You know your girl is here
from Philly. Taylor, you got the same size, Say hi
and Taylor. Let me see you got a joke? Got
a joke I can't hear. But she's got the best
jokes ever, Like they genuinely make me laugh. Go ahead,
go what do you call grandma that you're dating? Go ahead,

(41:07):
I don't know. Oh, Bay Bay, it's not that funny.
Come on, now, not that funny that you got one more,
one more? Okay, um, what do you call someone with
nobody and no news? What do you call them? Nobody news?

(41:28):
It's not that funny, that's not that funny. I'm sorry,
Envy is angry? Why is that not funny? These are
the people that you just got a question? Why they're
not happy? What is not funny about? Nobody knows? That's funny.
That's brilliant, that's brilliant. But when did we When did
we cross over to the tough branch? Where is cool?

(41:52):
I ain't having no fun? That's a funny joke. Do
good stop jokes? I love it every time? About see it? Kad.
We should tell him a little bit about the audible situation.
Let's do that when we come back. keV Harts here,
there's a new question. Angry Envy. We gotta tease. We
gotta tease. You just can't dive in. Gotta tease a

(42:12):
little bit. Wow, why's your face? Man, cav Hart? That's
the breakfast club? Good morning? Yes we're back. Cav Hart
is here. It's the breakfast club. But why are your
face goes to the caramel? You can't see. This is
why I'm turning off when I'm zooming. I don't like
people knowing what I'm doing, you know, because he forgetted

(42:33):
you on the zoom. So sometimes I go too close.
I can still see all though I was trying to
look and see what's behind, and I don't know where
she is. Oh okay, I was like, what studio are
you at this? I just saw all the alcohol bottle.
Let's say, maybe she's still having a good time right
there she is. Okay, I see it now, and I
didn't know what that was. Now, what's your question? Charge?

(42:56):
I want to ask keV about the audible situation that
that we just launched. You know, how do you how
do you hope the platform with audible will just help
people on their journey, actors, actresses, whoever it is. Here's
here's what I want people to know. Man, Charlomagne and
I are doing something strong, and it's it's because of,
like you just said, the opportunity to inform uh and

(43:19):
elevate within our community, the opportunity for knowledge. Right, Um,
there's been a lack lack of diversity within this audio
world of literature. There's an unknown side to it. People
don't know that books are available this way, Um, within
our community within our culture. And what we want to

(43:41):
do is drive a significant significant amount of talent and
creativity to this particular idea, this ip the world of
developing audio literature, concepts, autobiography stories. Attaching our stars today
and yesterday to old ips of the past and having

(44:04):
them read them and voice them and bring light to them,
to new ideas and bring light to them, it'll basically
generate enough attention to this younger generation to go, oh
my god, I want to listen to that. I haven't
heard that. I would love to know that story. Oh
my god, I would love to be informed or educated
on said concept because X, Y and Z is attached

(44:24):
to it. Now, it's just about making our culture get
excited about knowledge. How do we get you to want
more knowledge? How do we get you to want to
gain as much mental strength as you possibly can to
go and do the things that you want to do
in life, or simply have things that are constructive to
do with your time. You know, a lot of the

(44:46):
negatives that we deal with now comes from people just
having too much time on a hide all you're doing
nothing and the idle mind is a lost mind. So
how do we give you things to occupy your mind
and put you in the best place to be the
best version of yourself. This is an entity that I
truly feel like we'll be able to do that at
a high level. I gotta respect and appreciate Charlemagne, not

(45:08):
just for his understanding of this world, especially when it
comes to audio, but a true he has a true
high level of love for wanting to engage with this
culture and uplift his culture. And when you got people
to have that mindset, that's the making of a great business.
And I truly believe that that's when we started with Audible.
I got to give a shout out to them for

(45:30):
believing an idea, investing an idea, and allowing us to
have our own entity underneath that platform, to be black
owned and driven towards our community to uplift once again.
So you know, it's a dope thing. A dope thing.
You see Lorenz State in Lawrence Fishburn, they sold their
audio show Bronzeville. They turning that into a TV show.

(45:51):
It's this is the type of stuff that we were
talking about. I mean, that's an amazing opportunity. And when
you talk about audio show, you're it's a concept that
people might not grasp and realize is real. You can
have audio content. You know, people are on the move
so much now, everything is on the go so much

(46:12):
so giving you things that you can have while doing
the things that you do, especially having in your ears,
that's powerful. It's different for today's time. You know, listening
to your movie in your ears with no picture, having
people act out things in your ears. It's a real
It's a real concept and something that will be a

(46:34):
reality and that we are both going to deliver on.
I promise you that I was gonna say. I'm excited
for that for you, but I'm also excited that you're
remaking plane changing automobiles. Yeah. Yeah, man. Me and Will
Smith the first one never walked you together. Me and Will,
we've been in the business. Will's been in it a
lot longer than I am, but at the highest point
of my career, it's always been crazy that I haven't

(46:56):
cracked the code to work with Will, and we've had
new words conversations, and our last conversation we basically said,
you know, like we gotta figure it out. It's it's
now or never, and if it's not now, you know,
we would have done ourselves a disservice. We would have
done our city a major disservice, Like, there's no reason

(47:17):
for us not to be on the big screen together.
And I agree, man. So we sat down and we
tried to crack what the concept could be in the
remake of plane, trains and automobiles with our personality, with
our cadences. It just fits. Out of all the things
that came across our desk, this was the one that
I said we can deliver and at a high level.

(47:39):
So I'm excited about it. Are you the annoying one,
the annoying character, or are you the one that's more
straight laced well being and I'm annoying. I'm gonna go
with the annoying character. I think that would work. What happened, man?
I always wondered how far did y'all get with the
production of Hollywood Shuffle. I know you and Chadwick Bolsman,
God bless the dad. Y'alla, sup was gonna do Hollywood

(48:00):
Shuffle together? Right? You know that? Uh? All night? What
was the remake? It was one of them uptown Uptown.
I'm sorry. The craziest thing about Chadwick's death that hit
me so hard is we were talking. We were we
were talking, and we were excited. Man Like I I was.
I was proud of that brother for all of he

(48:23):
was doing. And I was like, Yo, you're going to
bring a different performance out of me because of how
in depth you go within your characters. I say, I
can't wait to work with you because You're gonna elevate
my performance because I'm gonna have to keep up with you,
because you're not coming in to be funny. You're coming

(48:45):
in to understand the character and to make sure that
you got layers of who this individual is. And that's
gonna make me do the same thing. And the man
was just breaking down the material. He was breaking down
the individual and as he was breaking it down and
made me go back and ask the right questions. And

(49:06):
our writer had to constantly go back and and change
and redefine. And it was based off of Chadwick in
his notes, and then the sudden tragedy of him passing away.
It hits so hard because you we never knew, nobody
never knew man. And what I respect the most is
that he didn't make it anybody else's business because he

(49:30):
didn't want anybody else's pity. He didn't want anybody feeling
sorry for him. He didn't want anybody laying out a
red carpet because of his illness. He wanted to continue
to work and get the things that he deserved, based
off of his talent, based off of his his true
impact on the business, and nobody knew. Nobody knew like

(49:54):
he just did productions. He did a movie for Netflix
that was shot. He did a movie for Apple that
was that nobody knew. We were developing uptown. We're we're
on the phone, we're talking about the character and as
he was losing weight, I was like, he's about to
do another role. He never even disgusted it. I never
even brought it up because I assumed, yeah, no, nobody knew,

(50:16):
and that it shocked me. It hurt me because I
truly know how good of a duty was, actually know
what he what he brought to the world of entertainment
into the cramped acting. He was one of a kind
man and and you know, he'll ever be celebrated, but
I he was this generations and he is the Denzel

(50:37):
for our generation. He was He was that Eric Boseman
was that as there's something or someone that comes in
and replaces a thing that we've seen, and Denzel's gonna
be on a pedestal forever. But he was the talent
that had the true makings of that machine, right, He's

(51:01):
going to be that machine plus more. And even Denzel
said it. Even Denzel, you know, took that man under
his wing and the ball. So it's it's just it's unfortunate,
you know. And prayers go out to his family and
to all that were impacted by a sudden death were
not sudden because the ones closer to him new, you know.

(51:22):
But I just it hurts because I'm like, man, I was,
I almost got to work with that brother. I did
not keep it lock. We got more with Kevin Hart.
When we come back. Usually be do the rumors, but
keeps here, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club, Go
Mornings Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.
We are the breakfast club. Usually we do rumors right here,
but keV Hart's here, Charlomagne. Does they make you move different? Kevi?

(51:45):
Because one thing I'm noticing about you now, everything you
do has purpose, whether it's the audible deal where you
want to amplify black voices and increase literacy, whether it's
the partnership with JP Morgan Chase where you're providing financial literacy.
Can you do anything now that doesn't serve a bigger purpose.
I'll be honest with you. I'm I'm almost done. I'm
almost at the point now where I'm about to chuck

(52:06):
up the deuces and and bow out. I don't want
to get to a point where I'm not enjoying my craft.
I don't want to get to a point where I
no longer love doing what I do and making people laugh.
That's a that's a that's that's my pride and joy.
You know, giving people a reason to smile is my
pride and joy. When when I see what we've become

(52:30):
and where we're going, if we don't change, and if
it doesn't start to kind of get back to a
way of of good and positivity or positive engagement of
reception and love and energy, I'm just gonna I'm gonna
remove myself like it's it's too much. When when I

(52:51):
think about my family, my kids, my wife, you know,
in the energy that I'm putting out, putting out, putting out,
it's it's going to be better used for other things.
If it's just if it's the tug of war of
what can, what can? What is? What is it? What's good?
What is it like? That's it's becoming just a lot.

(53:12):
At the age forty one, you know, I bust my ass,
I worked hard. I didn't do it too to be
miserable at the end of the day. So when you
say does it have an effect on me? What my
biggest effect now is it's truly not not giving the
level that I once did, because I understand how precious

(53:33):
life is, wow, and how precious as are, and some
people may not until that is almost gone. It's been
almost gone for me on numerous occasions for different things.
But that light really almost went out. So now I'm
you know, it's not much. That's that's gonna bother me
or move me like that. It's not much And because

(53:55):
of that, I would much rather at the point if
it got to that point, I'm gonna chuck to do.
This is up. I'm gonna tell to duce this up.
I'm forty one years old, and I promise you I'm
not going to be a old man that's angry that's
supposed to be at the top of his game, and
that's supposed to be enjoying the benefits from hard work.

(54:19):
I'm gonna give what I can and if it's received dope,
if it's not dope, I'm gonna try to put off
from my city in Philadelphia and create opportunities to this
young generation. And people see that dope if they don't dope.
I'm gonna try to uplift my community however I can.
Through the times that we're going through. My community realizes

(54:41):
it dope. They don't see it dope. I'm not like
the world of constantly battling for perspective and opinion and reception,
right like you're you're trying to get deceived or I'm
I'm forty one. I've been a I feel you. Yeah,

(55:02):
I've been for a long time. So you know, my
knees is starting to hurt. I've been playing the game
for a while. I'm tired of icing my knees. At
some point, as a basketball player, you turning your back
to the basket, you no longer want to jump, you
don't want to dunk, and after you start shooting fadeaways
and people stop saying that you're playing the way you
used to, you go you know what, I don't want
to play no more. I'm good. I'm going Matt Now

(55:23):
I'm gonna own a team. Yeah, I thought I go.
I thought I got better. I thought I got better
with my back today. No, y'all, don't think I'm getting better.
I'm still averaging to save. You ain't the same. You

This doesn't make me better. It doesn't make me smarter,
y'all don't see that. Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna go
and coach the team that I used to love, and
then I'm gonna try to own it, and then I'm

(55:44):

you like it, don't If you don't, dope, that's that's
my oath. True. Indeed, back up, man, do clothes. When
it's Kevin Hart's the breakfast Club, good morning, it's time

(57:09):
for Donkey of the day. I'm a Democrat, so being
dunky of the day is a little bit of a
mixed juck. So like a dog other day, break the
club bitches. Now, I've been called a lot of my
twenty three years that Donkey of the day is a
new wife. Donkey of the day goes to the Jefferson
County grand jury and Attorney Daniel Cameron in Kentucky. Whoever

(57:34):
else was responsible for making sure for ensuring that justice
was not served in the shooting death of Brianna Taylor
is donkey is for you too. If you haven't heard
a Jefferson County grand jury when dieted one of the officers,
Brett Hankinson, on three counts the first degree wan time
endangerment because juris said several bullets he fired inside Taylor's

(57:54):
apartment in March thirteenth, went into a neighboring apartment where
a pregnant woman, a man, and a child we're home,
but neither him nor Sergeant Jonathan Mattingly our detective Miles
cost Growth were charged with killing Brianna Taylor, an unarmed
black woman. Look, I wasn't expecting any type of justice.
This is America, Okay. When justice is served, I'm shocked, pleasantly, surprised, joyful,

(58:19):
even which is whack because we should never celebrate people
for doing what they are supposed to do. But when
justice isn't served, I honestly don't know what I am.
Each case is different, each case feels different. I was
talking to my dear sister Angela Ry last night and
I told her, I just I just feel bad, Okay,

(58:39):
I feel humanly helpless because at the end of the day,
as a black man in America, I just want to win.
That's all we want, you know. And winning to me
isn't being the richest. It's not being the most successful.
Winning to me is just being free. What does that mean?
I don't know. Winning to me is just simply receiving liberty,
equality and justice. You know, those Dimmick values they tell

(59:01):
us about. Those three words are supposed to represent basic
values of democratic political systems, that the bare minimum a
human in this country should be able to get liberty,
equality and justice. But we know that's not the case
when you're black, all right. Democratic values are supposed to
support the belief that an orderly society can exist in

(59:22):
which freedom is preserved. But order and freedom must be balanced. Right,
So when you see all this civil unrest in the
street right now, after verdicts like Brianna Taylor happened, and
people are acting out of order, it's because there's no balance.
All right. Order and freedom must be balanced. They will
never be ordered when a people are not free. And
it's hard to feel truly free when you don't feel protected,

(59:44):
when you know, at any moment in this country, your
human rights can be violated. So we keep talking about
our civil rights being violated. Let me tell y'all something.
In order for one to respect our civil rights, they
have to respect our human rights, which is my right
to simply live. Okay, what does this country say. I
think it's my right to life and liberty that bs.

(01:00:06):
This country says everyone is entitled to these rights without
discrimination or where. That's that why I don't feel that way.
I'm a black man. If it wasn't for my faith
in a higher power and my right to bare arms,
I would never feel safe in this country. And that's
what I mean when I say I want black people
to win. A win. To me, is us as black
people feeling protected? Okay. Hard to feel like that when
you live in the United States of anxiety. Okay. I

(01:00:29):
want black people to feel like we matter. I want
us to be able to, you know, deal with our
generational traumas in heal. But we are not ever able
to do that because we keep getting retraumatized over and
over in this country. This country will always remind us
that black lives simply don't matter. I got a beautiful
black wife, three beautiful Black daughters. I am a black man.

(01:00:50):
I just you know, think about it today. We matter
about Brianna Taylor. We're still mad about George Floyd. You've
got Ahmad Aubrey with all those names, and changeable with
Sandra Bland, Walter Scott Treyvon Martin, Tamir Rice, Natasha mckinne,
Philando cast still could be you like, it's just too much.
And I know, I know, I know, voting November look

(01:01:11):
I play into but please, politicians don't politicize black pain
to scare me in the voting. Because these injustices happen
under Democrats too. It doesn't matter what party is in power,
because once again, this isn't about civil rights, it's about
human rights, and white people in this country have always
looked at black folks as subhuman. So does it matter
who's in office locally nationally when we've been watching police

(01:01:33):
and damn there everyone else get away with these types
of injustice towards black people forever. Once again, I'm voting,
But don't politicize black pain to scare me to vote.
Don't tell me how the justice system needs to be reformed. No, no, no,
because that system was never designed to provide equal justice
across the board. Okay, when they say justice for all,
they were not talking about black folks. Bernie Sanders hit

(01:01:56):
it on the head when he said in a tweet,
Brian Taylor's life mattered. This result is a disgrace and
an abdication of justice. Our criminal justice system is racist. Okay.
The time for fundamental changes now. Keywords and that our
criminal justice system is racist. There is no reforming or

(01:02:18):
racist system. Okay, you got to overhaul the whole thing
from top to bottom. Throw it out. The criminal justice
system in America is defective product. Take it off the
assembly line. Let's build something new because this is not working.
I don't have the answers, Okay, I'm just telling you
how I feel. I hate when I hear politicians get
asked about these situations and the first thing they say

(01:02:38):
is make sure you protest peacefully. We don't need any violence.
How about tell that to the cops, tell them the
police peacefully, Tell them we don't need any more violence.
How show improve through actions and deeds and hold them
accountable when situations like Brianna Taylor happened, and maybe they
will slow down on violence. What are the consequences to
their actions? They don't their pensions, they don't go to prison.

(01:03:02):
What will ensure that situations like Brianna Taylor, George Floyd,
a insert black name here don't happen again? All right?
These politicians were having more smoke for protesters than they
do the police. You have more smoke for the people
in pain than the people causing the pain. These politicians
love acknowledging the effect but not the cause. Is sickening, man,

(01:03:23):
he really is. And I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to say. I have faith in God, Okay,
I go to therapy to avoid going crazy. And I
think every black person in America should own a legal
firearm and you should know how to use it. That's
all I got, Black people, that's all I got. If
y'all got some great ideas, I'm all ears. But at
this moment today, right now, I got nothing, just like

(01:03:45):
Brianna Taylor's family got nothing in regards to justice. And
if there's no justice, there's no peace in the streets, okay,
And that's the way karma works in America, Almighty America.
No one and I mean no one can escape the
law carma. Please let remy ma give the Jefferson County

(01:04:06):
grand Jury an attorney Daniel Cameron the biggest he haw
he haw he ha you stupid motherfu are you dumb?
All right? Well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
I wish I did not do it. Put you looking
for the best of the best of the best. The

chance to finish doing what I what I was doing
when I was in my thirties, and I was just
pissed off about that for so many years, and so
I don't know how to perform one way and that's
just that way. What do you mean you said you
didn't get to finish with you you know, you know,

(01:06:00):
thing just turned sour, and so I didn't get a
chance to really finish and get where I was trying
to go at that time. And so when I when
I asked God for what I needed and what I
wanted in life, when he gave me the opportunity to
go get that again, I just went hard. I've just
been going hard ever since. And everybody's like, how the
hell are you? You know doing what you're doing is
because you know I'm ready to do it the right

(01:06:21):
way this time, you know. So it was a bad
business deal man. I was just high. I was drugged

and ended up sleeping on the park cars and parked trucks.
And when I got up, asked God for some can
I get me, send me somebody to HLP me get
out here? And I was going went to a looking store.

(01:06:42):
But when I came out, I seen my cousin and
we used to get high together. But she was your
color and she was she was your color. But when
we was getting high, huskin was black patche marks. You're
talking to me to drink a lot? Yeah, So when

(01:07:03):
I seen hers, she was high, yell, I said, damn,

tears roll and I said, what's wrong with you? She said,

one hundred and fifteen pounds. Yes, you are, cuds. You
gotta come on out of this. I was like, come on,
cuz what you're talking about? I said, you look good? Sheos,
I've been sober for three years. I said three years.

(01:07:25):
It's been that long. She said, where you been? I said,
I've been out here. Where was your family at that time,
your brothers, your parents? You just were my my, my mom.
They lived in Oklahoma, So I was I was in
Los Angeles on the streets. And but you know, you
don't want to go on to Mama with that man,
and you know, your crackhead, you gotta you know, you
gotta do it yourself. And so when I saw her,

(01:07:48):
she was said, I'm I've been sober for three years.
She said, let me just take you to the rehab
while I went, and I'm teaching out there. So I
promised I would let her do it, and nuh. And
I've been so bad ever since. I was wow with
no relapses and none of that no turnarounds. Was it

(01:08:08):
the industry that turned you out? Because I always heard
a rumor that total experienced record man, it was to
pay the artists in cocaine. That's what I need to head.
Used to pay the artist roadies in cocaine. No, it wasn't.
He didn't do that, but it was. It could have
been a better situation for me, but I handed my
situation over to basically like family members taking care everybody else, please,

(01:08:30):
you take care of yourself, and so I was left
for nothing. So that took you into like a depression movie.
Well yeah, I mean you know, and in the streets,
you know, it was always gangsters, pimps and and do dealers,
and so they all just took care of whatever I needed.
They would just give it to me, and anybody knew you. Yeah.
So it wasn't like I spent all my money on
it because I never had to spend no money on

(01:08:51):
no drugs. You know. It just ended up taking me
out the game, period. But you were a crackhead. Crackhead,
oh man, I snarted. I snarted. But after after Wow, man,
I had a hole in my nose. Wow. Oh yeah
that was good. That was there. So when they chopping
their bag up there. We just see him. Yeah, have

(01:09:15):
to make you sing for it. Nothing ain't doing that.
We take our hand. I'm just saying you not even know.
I ain't need that. Man, come out doing them, mother,
I'm saying, no, I didn't do that. But it was
like will you. Being Charlie, I would always say, I've
been a studio all night. Man, come on in here, man,

(01:09:36):

He's on the table and that for you. We're gonna
take a shower and the leave when you want to,
just lock the door. And it'd be like that, man.
But I was sleeping on the side of the building,
hiding the bushes or sleeping under the U haul trucks
that was in the parking lot. About your old music
as your friends, they didn't, man, come on, man, nobody
want to when you're looking like that. What about your

(01:09:59):
brothers because they in the group with you, in the
Gap Bandlet let's go back. Let's let's tell the history
of Charlie Wilson. If people who don't know them, sure's
young uns that might not know legendary group the Gap Band. Now,
how did you get your start? In the music industry.
And for people that don't know who Charlie Wilson is,
all I was. I was a young buck. I mean
my friends we played music so at tea before teenage years.

(01:10:20):
We were we had a band and we called ourselves
to GT Car of GTS or something like that. We
were young, like twelve years old. So we used to
play in the y MCA on Wednesdays for the classmates,
and like about after a month, it was just like
it was more teachers than than students, because see, we
played like grown people. We was twelve years old, right,
and so I became first name basis with the teachers

(01:10:43):
and so you know women, you know what. So what
happened after that? You know, I'm twelve that female teachers
probably about twenty two, I'm already living a grown life
sort of like, wow, you're knocking off the teachers at
that age. Come on, that's called we know that. We
know now that's molestation. Yeah, I mean, I mean you
don't know, you you didn't even know the think that

(01:11:04):
was gonna be there, you know whatever. But started me
at eight years old with the twenty something you old on. Yeah,
I mean it's like, you know, I was hanging out
with grown people. Though, what's the teaching name. Let's meet
to a real quick. What's her name? No? Created? So
I was that band that we had. We got a
little old. We started playing happy hours. Two years later

(01:11:25):
we were about fourteen or fifteen, and then the places
is packed and so this band was across street. Wheels
when my oldest brother was in that band, and they
was like, man, who's across the street. They said, your
little brother over there, Man for turning it out. And
so he's like, man, you need to get out this band.
And I was like, no, I don't you see, yes
you do. I'm telling mamma you in here. Then I'm

(01:11:46):
gonna tell mamma you in here playing. They said, you
know what was at Dino's house, you know, sleeping, your
staying I don't like with each other on the weekends.
I was like hey, I said, yeah, we're back and forth,
and Mama said over his house and back in our houses.
It should know you've been playing here because I've been
hearing about it. As anyway, long story shot, after we
got into high school, I decided, you know, he was like, man,

(01:12:06):
you gotta get out this band. Man, come get in
this band I'm in. I was like, and we was
getting in a graduation. We're trying to figure out what
college was going to. Everybody's going to different colleges, and
no said, okay. His band was already called the Gap Band.
It wasn't a gat band at that time, but it
was like we end up calling it at that the
Greenwood Archer and Pine Street Band. All right, we got
more with Charlie Wilson when we come back. Now, if
you don't know about Charlie Wilson, you might know some

(01:12:27):
of his classic records. So we're gonna do a mini mix.
All right, it's gonna be some records that you heard him.
Be like, oh, how is Charlie Wilson. Yes, that's what
we're gonna do. Right now, your favorite Charlie Wilson joins
is the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ
Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast
Club was still kicking with og legend Charlie Wilson, or
you might know from the group the Gap Band. Charlomagne.

(01:12:49):
I was gonna ask you, what's the coach of significance
of the group named the Gap Band? Like I was
gonna I was gonna ask Greenwood Archer and Pine Street Band.
It was Greenwood what's where Black Wall Street was all
rich black people, multi millionaires, had their own bus company,
his head, their own grocery stores, had their own black

(01:13:11):
owned banks, everything there, and then the white man came
and blew it all up, burn it up because this
black dude and this white chick was having sex going
with each other. But that was really crush us in
the twenties, and they was in the same building. They
come down the elevator together and opened up on that
ground flow and all the white people's else. So she
come out screaming, you rate me, Well, he's just come

(01:13:33):
out screaming, So they just grabbed him and dragged him
so because they like, you know, you ain't supposed to
be an elevator with no white woman, so they couldn't
say that they had been doing anything. So they just
beat him in and then then started burning things. And
then they started the police was knocking on doors, and
then black people answered the door. They shoot him, kill them. Yuh.
So they're trying to wipe out all a norf Tulsa.

(01:13:54):
That's such an important story that I feel like still
hasn't been told the right way. I think people need
to see that. They kind of flirted with it and
at the HBO show The Watchman, but it's like, yo,
people need to see that because black people have built
these great communities. Yeah, but they've been snatched away from
us absolutely. Well, they see white the white community was
really mad at that at at this black community because

(01:14:14):
they had everything, didn't need anything, They didn't have to
come out of that community for nothing. And they was
mad because the black people wouldn't go and and and
do and work for them anymore because they had it all.
That story told and told her lot has always wondered
like what was taught the kids growing up in toltal well,
you know, tasting the importance of having the Basically it

(01:14:35):
wasn't It was not supposed to be talked about it all.
So the people, the blacks that lived a long said,
don't ever bring that up ever, really because it's the
white police officers. If you said, take me what happened,
and if they started talking about what happened and they
just kill them. Wow. Yeah. What has kept the Gap
band from like being seen as one of like the
upper echelon groups and R and D being your product

(01:14:58):
of your environment, your association with people. See if you
let me just say this, if you're a known pimp, off,
you're a known drug dealer, and you go get these
kids over here and you're trying to promote them, nobody's
gonna hard mess with you off your gang bang. Nobody
want to be bothered with that. So right now I'm
gonna push you over here with it. It's gonna be like, no,
I don't want to have nothing to do with that.

(01:15:19):
This dude's crazy. Never know what he's gonna do, you know,
So we just we did it the best way we
could do. Do you know how big we can make it?
All right? Was for yeah? You know that was my wedding,
So really yeah, I can't all right? The acapella, Yeah,
we've had a shout of trouble, don't anymore than others? Well?

(01:15:42):
Who else? I told me that with the little love
understand man who in the mountain? And man, but it's God,
Man that's not gone, that's got God. We kiss forever.

(01:16:09):
Call my wife right now, he really will. How many
times you people call you to do private thing and
thing for Valentine and stuff? Oh, man, they call a lot,
but they don't have enough. They don't have enough. I
don't have enough. So we just kind of just turned
them down basis with him my manager over there. He
don't say you don't have enough money to say I'm sorry.
We were busy right now, we can't do it. It's

(01:16:31):
got to be at least one person that page Charlie
Wilson to come sing for him. Oh yeah, I did go. Yeah,
I've done it, Magic Magic Johnson. I played for the
kardash Chris Uh huh, Chris, Michael Michael Jordan just at
the house. Oh no, he had Yeah, but you and

(01:16:52):
is a big fan. I'm a big fan. Michael Jordan
is a big fan. I'm a big fan of his.
And so it was like it's different, right. I was
in the car, they parked in front of the store,
and that's two chicks got up. My wife was in
the store and I was playing one of my songs.
I had been working on you and they had just
came out, so I was listening at it to see
if how I can remix it. I was just listening

(01:17:13):
in the car. So she got up, she said, she
opened up the door. A little sister out and she
closed up. She looked over there and I turned the
music up. She said, hey, who are you? Why why
are you playing that so many times? I said, I'm
trying to learn. Make sure I learned my lyrics. Yeah, right,
like you some damn Charlie Wilson. You ain't got damne.

(01:17:36):
So I said no, I said I am. But she said, man,
you know what. She said, well, what are your wife?
And I said she is there. She's like, yeah right,
and then her sister came out screaming and uh with
my wife. And I said that my wife, and she
said and then she said, I'm getting married. My daddy

(01:17:59):
got the money, trust me, I just got you. Did
you play for my wedding? But I was at time,
I was like, you know what, I'm not going to
turn into the damn wedding singer, that's for sure. So
you ain't doing you do about Mitch for something or
something like why you got the money? Yeah? I wrote
it down and by that time, I mean, my manager

(01:18:20):
on booked some shows and we booked by then. How
do you decide who you want to work with because
a lot of these are artists. Now I want to
work with Charlie Wilson so badly. I was seen. You
know you went Bruno Mars Tyler, the creator. Yes, we
know you have a great relationship with Snoop, But how
do you decide because I'm sure there artists that are
doing really well putting up those numbers, but it has

(01:18:40):
to go on brand with what it is that you
do too. They called I've seen a few of them.
Excuse me. At the Grammy Awards, I was getting up
the same time the superstar rapper and his superstar wife.
He's like, damn, I'm standing front of Charlie Wilson. God, damn, man,
can I get some of that as you know, just
like a verse or a hook. I was like, yeah, man,

(01:19:03):
it don't matter. You and your wife can come on
when do it? But I can't oblige everybody, you know,
because I'm so busy. You trying to guess, and I
ain't gonna take you that starting. Ye maybe it's a
bunch of I was working Kanye, but I'm just saying
it could be. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. I

(01:19:24):
wouldn't never said I would love to work with our
offset and card Play happen now come on now? Yeah,
So it's it's uh, you got an album coming out soon? Yeah,
I got one coming out soon too. You know what
I'm saying. I know you probably had that little problem
to do what you do. Sometimes you try to go

(01:19:45):
on the road with somebody. I treat you right and
give you the number you're looking for, you know what
I'm saying, because then you're gonna set the building on fire.
All right? We got more with Charlie Wilson when we
come back. Don't move. It's the breakfast Club, Good morning,
the old The legend is here of Charlie Wilson's in
the building. Charlomagne, didn't Snoop almost make you relapse? One

She said, you gotta put that out. My husband can't
come in there. What you're smoking now? He said, word,
I'm not. I'm gonna take him home. Then he said no, no, no, no,
that's okay. She said he's clean and sober. I must
have been like my first year or a second year.

(01:20:53):
You should have seen him putting it out. Man. He said, man,
y'all put that out. I can't come in here if
you put that out. So everybody put it out. I
went in there, didn't Some did the songs and we
are here with you. Uh ninety six, ninety seven there,
ninety seven, the ninety six. Yeah, he died ninety six
earl ninety six. It was it was somewhere there. Did

(01:21:14):
you know she was doing that? Or did she just no?
She didn't care why I knew or not? Just straight
tell him. She turned all the gangsters and there, all
the gangsters and there, y'all got to put that out.
I'm not gonna let him come in here. So they
was like, oh, the old world. One time I went
to Snoop's house and uh, I made him stop smoking
for a year. Really why? Yeah, we mean he said
he quit smoking. Yeah. I took him in his own

(01:21:35):
kitchen and had a conversation with it, and he didn't
like And then he just sit down and just said
with them frowns a little bit. I said, you gotta stop, man,
you gotta stop, he said, for real. I was like,
hey man, you got a wife in there, and you
got the little ones in there. You gotta stop. And
so he sat, okay, I can't even. He went up,
got in there, come back with the Blox shoe box.

(01:21:55):
He had something there, dumped it in the trash can
and dumped out. I said, go get the rest of
He went in there and got some another one and
dumped it, and so I said, I know you got
something here, but it's okay. I just want you to
throw it all the way. So I went home and
a week later I talked to his wife and she said, uncle,
what you say to Snoop? I said, why, he smokes

(01:22:17):
nothing since you left. As a matter of fact, he's
throwing everything out and he lasted about a year. What
did you say? But I just basically was just saying,
hey man, you know you got family, families more important
than right here, you know, and so we just got
to just put a curve on it and let's just
go and do the right thing. You know, I'm doing
the right thing. You should do the right thing. And

(01:22:37):
let's just let's just do to take care of family
and take care of your life, take care of your health,
you know, write some some some great music, and let's
just go on this. So he says, saith sound good
to me, And that's what he did. You got Kanye
to turn to God to right. I heard that. You.
I've been talking. I've been talking to him for so much,
so long about just life and God and the stiff
because everybody used to look at me like because man,
I go testify. I testify on my shows and get

(01:23:00):
the shouting right there after that, have eighteen thousand people
shouting with me, you know, and then go right in
the outstanding after that or something. But you know, you
got to, you know, pass it on. You know, some
people are having problems and you know it. So you
think you the reason Kanye turned to God in that way. Well,
I'm not gonna claim that, but you know what I'm saying.
I used to talk to him a lot about you

(01:23:20):
know that, and um like I talked to all of
my superstar nephews. I'll call him. You know. It's like, hey, man,
come on, we gotta do this right thing, you know,
I said, you know me, I don't care nothing about
this thing you got going up in here. Don't nobody
to take this picture. Don't nobody you know I brought.
I got my phone. I got my phone. Hey, I
ain't gonna put my phone nowhere. You don't know to

(01:23:41):
use the phone to flip up? Kirk, that's what I got, said,
it ain't no smart phone. I said, so smart? What

(01:24:02):
I was a smart one? What the fall up were good?
I love the way you talk about your wife. You
said that you weren't even living until you met her.
You just man, I was existing. I met her in
the rehab. When I got to that rehab, I was
in bad shape. So I had a little something in
my part. I was trying to hit it for a week.
Then she knocked on the door. I said, how you doing, man,
I'm just lying. You need to participate more in the classes.

(01:24:24):
You know, you've fallen asleep now. And she said, I
know why you're falling asleep, because your detoxing. Your body's detoxing.
But you gotta you gotta participate, you gotta find these
tools so for the rest of your life. So she said,
what you're gonna do when you get out of here?
Then I broke down. Then, man, I was like her,
I don't have no where to go. And she said, well,
you don't have it. What you mean you don't have
to whether go on? Said I don't have no where
to go. I'm homeless. She was like, homeless, and you

(01:24:44):
don't have no worse in on, man, So she said, Wednesday,
I want to take you to look for you a
place to live. So Wednesday came and she got me
a pass. I got in her car, and she took
me for a place and it was three car garage
house upstairs downstairs, I think four or five bedrooms or
something like that. Next day we went and she found

(01:25:05):
the furniture filled the whole place up with furniture. You
pay for this house, old man, I ain't got I
ain't got a dance. So she got to put the
furniture in and and I said, okay, what about the car.
She's like, I ain't giving you no car because you
know you're gonna car's gonna take you to the drug house,
the dope house of the looking store. So I said, well,

(01:25:27):
I can't be in here by myself. Man, I's like,
I don't know what you looking at me for. I
don't know you like that. I was like, but it
suld be nice if you stay here with me. You
ain't say it like that I did. I was kind
of calm. I you know, I was trying to I'm
trying to sneak up on it. But I'm sure you
ain't singing too. No, no, I ain't hadn't sing it yet.
But she didn't even know who I am about RMB

(01:25:49):
music at that time. Anyway, So she paid for the
house and the furniture. She bought it all. She paid
for it all. Long story short, I did talk into
it staying in. She said, uh, fish keep said, I
don't know you like that. But anyway, one day I said, ma'am,
I'm gonna tell you something about me. If I leave
at this house by myself, going somewhere, only being in
this rehab for only twenty eight days, I'm telling you

(01:26:11):
now I'm gonna die out there. It won't be another
chance for me. So she moved in with me, and
she told me, she's one day. She said, we're being
here one year, and I guarantee you after this one
year is up, you're gonna have you can buy your
own house. I was like, how's that? She said, you see,

(01:26:35):
come on. We was in that house one year and
the spirit said, getting the cars, we started driving, said
where are you going? I was all up in Sant
Kennis with these big mansion houses. Why are you looking
at these big houses like this? It's just me and you?
Why do you want it? And I couldn't answer the question.
I started driving again and found this neighborhood and spiritual
me to pull up in the house, the main house.
What he to do? The business? So I went in there.

(01:26:58):
The lady who says, how y'all doing? Come on in
and I said, well, the spirit told me to come here.
She said, okay, sit on down. I was looking around.
I said, this is kind of nice, man. And so
this couple came in. He said like, yeah, can I
we look? And the lady said, I'm sorry y'all, this
this house is sold and then they left. I said, well,
you didn't tell me it was sold. She said, you
