Thank you.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
We'll laugh.
Speaker 12 (05:17):
Get it off your Chest eight hundred and five eighty
five one five one. It's the Breakfast Club in the morning,
wake up, wake up wall ask.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Your time to get it off your chest?
Speaker 12 (05:28):
Really your man or blessed, we want to hear from
you on the breakfast gloves. Hello, who is hello?
Speaker 16 (05:36):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (05:36):
What's your name?
Speaker 17 (05:37):
Bright?
Speaker 12 (05:38):
We'll fall the jersey will jersey.
Speaker 18 (05:41):
Briefly, I just want to highlight the fact that it's
like what's going through now. And I don't know if
you guys or know what a rush act is is
when you know, the doctor shoes you a picture or
something and you give your interpretation of it and then
it is what you see. But now in real life,
it's like certain things that used to be cutting dry.
You see a square, it's a square. See a circle.
(06:02):
It's a certacause there's no argument about that. But we're
in the player at the country now that we can
look at the same exact thing and something is cut
and dry as murder and justify it or look at
it totally different. You have people that can look at
what happened in Minnesota to most people who're like, Okay.
Speaker 19 (06:19):
That was wrong.
Speaker 18 (06:20):
But then there's other people that go look at the
same exact situation and justify it. And then some of
those same people will look at what happened on January sixth,
where most people will look at it like Nope, that
was wrong what those people did, and there's those people
that would justify it. And So if we're at a
point in this country where we can't look at things
that are basically absolute and not have the same opinion
(06:44):
on this is right and this is wrong, but we
all see that with the same vision, we're in trouble.
If we can't start at a faiseline of what decency
is and what right is right and wrong is, then
everything else is totally off the table.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
You're right, they treat and murdered away, n treat getting
caught cheating. You know what I'm saying, but.
Speaker 18 (07:03):
You should be able to the things that you could
justify your opinion.
Speaker 11 (07:08):
What a fact that?
Speaker 18 (07:09):
Like, you know Eddie Murphy had that joke. You wanna
believe me or your lion I but she knows to
say whatever she wants to say. We know what we.
Speaker 7 (07:18):
Saw and that's what it should be about. That.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Man, you are so accurate. That's exactly what it should
be about.
Speaker 12 (07:23):
Right.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Right is right and wrong is wrong. You know what
I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Like if we're saying, you got these people out here
that got a job to do with your the ice agents, Okay,
do their job.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
Do I want people impeding them doing their job? No?
But I don't don't want them killing folks either.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Get it off your chest.
Speaker 12 (07:37):

you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the
Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody's dj n V. Just hilarious,

Speaker 7 (08:07):

Speaker 5 (08:09):
She's a big d energy. Yeah, yeah, I give you
say she had big energy, is.
Speaker 12 (08:13):

Speaker 5 (08:14):

Speaker 7 (08:21):
Like somebody getting electrictated.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Thing might as well say damn that you went to
to Oh my god, you always got to go to Yeah,
play too much? Right, listen to the call.
Speaker 8 (08:35):
So I have a girlfriend I've been with for a
year and alf.
Speaker 14 (08:39):
We lived together.
Speaker 18 (08:40):
We got a cat.
Speaker 12 (08:40):
You know, real life acts in the house talk to us.
Speaker 8 (08:46):
So she's a nurse. She's telling me. A few months
ago she started getting close with some girl at work.
The girl is her work wife. I tell her to
knit it in the bus.
Speaker 16 (08:56):
She don't do it.
Speaker 8 (08:57):
Then I go through her phone on Chris this day
I see her texting with the girl, and the girl's
talking like what you wearing? I can't wait to see
you type Today we had a big fight. She turned
her location off and she left the Cris. I drove
her through her earbos Wow, she has the Shorty's house.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
Yo, damn crazy, hould up to the PRIs.
Speaker 8 (09:23):
I come outside, she said, you in the wrong place.
Speaker 19 (09:26):
I'm not here.
Speaker 11 (09:27):
I knock on the front door.
Speaker 8 (09:30):
I'm not.
Speaker 18 (09:31):
They're gonna call the top and I'm like, no, y'all
you know alright.
Speaker 12 (09:34):
So we're asking eight hundred five eight five one oh
five one? Do you mind if your significant other has
a house spots in the house, work husband.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Now I want the record to show what a normal
show would have just said, do you mind if your
significant other has a workwife or work husband? Actually the
stud lesbian aspect of it has nothing to do with
any of this, but that's what a conversation, nothing.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
To do with it.
Speaker 12 (09:59):
But you really like that's an interesting story to an
interesting story. But that's where the call came from. She
said she doesn't want her wife to have her girlfriend.
Speaker 13 (10:07):
I have that.
Speaker 12 (10:08):
Let's start with you, would you mind if Chris.
Speaker 10 (10:10):
Had a work wife? Absolutely would would mind? Like, I
don't think the label is going too far when you
say wife and husband. Why you just can't have a
work friend, you know what I'm saying, or a coworker
that you're really cool with Like why does it have
to be why does.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
The term have to be work wife?
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Work husband?
Speaker 9 (10:27):
I don't think it's appropriate.
Speaker 10 (10:29):
I don't like it sometimes now now, a lot of
times it is platonic, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (10:32):
But a lot of times it's not right. So and
you never know.
Speaker 12 (10:37):
I want you either. We all friends, Yeah, yeah, like nah.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Yeah, I don't like it. I don't like the term.
Speaker 6 (10:45):
Like like I said, like, you shouldn't be calling nobody
else your husband. You shouldn't be calling nobody else your wife.
You know, those are like sacred titles, you know what
I mean. Those are titles that you earn, and you
know you can just be calling nobody your work husband wife.
And to me, it's like it's applies other connotations, you
know what I'm saying, Like why does that gotta be
your work husband a work wife?
Speaker 7 (11:05):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (11:06):
I don't like that. I don't like the term.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
That was funny me and m me do it. Yeah,
like that's my work husband. But that's a joke exactly.
Speaker 10 (11:14):
Wives know each you know, you'll know too much.
Speaker 12 (11:18):
He played for me outside we were outside of work.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
He's still playing.
Speaker 12 (11:21):
I don't want to play.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
Whatever, because the streets. Know the streets, not the streets
the screech know you my work bottom. You're actually my
work bottom, bitch.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
That's the way I look at what.
Speaker 13 (11:34):
You go to Hell.
Speaker 11 (11:36):
From Brooklyn.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
From Brooklyn, talk to jah.
Speaker 12 (11:39):
What's your thoughts going on?
Speaker 11 (11:41):
My thoughts ain't no work wives, ain't no work husbands.
I mean, because you know, soon as should get a
little attitude with me, you should go to work, talk
about you know all he not doing me right? Next thing,
you know, a shoulder to cry on, become a meet with.
Speaker 9 (11:53):
You, right, Damn, you're right.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
And I ain't gonna front man. Something something happened on
my algorithm one day. Well, I clicked on one video
and then I just went down a whole thing of
videos whereas these girls talking about this is how you
take care of your friend, and it's like girls giving
guys hell. Now, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 11 (12:11):
It's like, you just gotta work from home with me.
Matter of fact, amazon't got to leave the package on
the steps. Don't even ring the bell.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Damn, Hello, who's this hey?
Speaker 8 (12:23):
No?
Speaker 11 (12:23):
No at off towards man, No.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
No, what's up? Talk to us? What's your doings?
Speaker 13 (12:28):
Hey?
Speaker 17 (12:28):
Man, Good morning to y'all.
Speaker 11 (12:29):
Man, I listened to yall live this morning.
Speaker 14 (12:31):
I want to start that out.
Speaker 19 (12:32):
Thank you brother, Yeah sir, but yeah, I think.
Speaker 17 (12:35):
These days now, being in a relationship, when you with
a person and they're at a at a job site
and they went they see this work for nine, ten,
twelve hours out of the day, you know, they tend
to go on lunch state and you know that's that's
gonna happen. And I think, you know you just gotta
either accept it or leave it, because really.
Speaker 11 (12:55):
That's what goes on.
Speaker 12 (12:56):
Do you have a work white bro?
Speaker 17 (12:58):
No, I try to trus brother, I just of my
own business pool woolexpress.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Man, you gotta you gotta work a lot lizard.
Speaker 5 (13:07):
No, No, that is that one restop on the route
you going?
Speaker 7 (13:16):
You gotta lead.
Speaker 9 (13:17):
That man's a dope.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Hello, what's up brother?
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Talk to us? What you're doing?
Speaker 14 (13:26):
A good morning? First of all, I love all of
y'alls everything y'all do. I think y'all are amazing.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
Thank you, Thank you. We appreciate you, man, Thank you.
Speaker 14 (13:34):
Another thing, I think the girl was insane for telling
her girlfriend she got a work wife. I think that
you gotta keep that to yourself. I've had plenty of
work wives that didn't lead to nothing at all. But
I ain't, like I told my girldad like, I just
kept it to me. Were just getting coffee and and
doing stuff like that. We ain't doing nothing crazy.
Speaker 10 (13:53):
Now, that's the thing that the reason why I thought
it was it wasn't crazy that she told her girlfriend
that she had a work wife. What made it crazy
is that you really with your work wife, like y'all
getting intimate, y'all, y'all flirting and dealing with each other.
She went in the phone, saw messages, and she cheats.
She was cheating on her girlfriend with her work wife.
That's where it went wrong.
Speaker 15 (14:09):
You got crazy.
Speaker 14 (14:10):
That's a whole nother conversation. Specifically, Hey, you came to yourself.
You always home for that?
Speaker 12 (14:18):
I can't now, dion answer answer answer the railway right.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
Have you ever flirted with your work wife?
Speaker 14 (14:26):
Of course that's my work wife.
Speaker 16 (14:27):
But happen.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
No, But see, you shouldn't be flirting. You know your
wife would not allow you to be flirting.
Speaker 6 (14:33):
Would you tell your wife you was flirting with your
work wife? That you don't listen, My my rule is
you don't do nothing. You can't tell your wife.
Speaker 15 (14:45):
That's right.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
You can't tell your wife about it. You know you
ain't got no.
Speaker 12 (14:47):
Business doing it now if you're just joining us. This
conversation actually came from a woman who called yesterday during
Get It off your Chest. Let's listen to the call.
Speaker 8 (14:56):
Oh, I have a girlfriend I've been with for a
year and a half, lives together, we got a cat.

Speaker 8 (15:07):
So she's a nurse, She's telling me. A few months
ago she started getting close with some girl at work.
The girl is her work wife. I tell her to
nip it in the bus. She don't do it. Then
I go through her phone on Christmas Day. I see
her texting with the girl, and the girl's talking like
what you wearing? I can't wait to see you type today.
(15:29):

and she left the crib. I drive her through her
ear pods. My dude, wow, she has the shorty's.

Mom, I'm sorry, are you somebody's work wife?
Speaker 19 (16:32):
She is, Oh, I'm the I'm somebody who's caught my
uh work wife. Happy y'all want to say? Yeah, So
my husband worked somewhere, right, we used to work together.
I quit so I found like place list that didn't
work out. So, you know, because I know, like I
know how the work wife and stuff is my husbands
(16:55):
on drive, I was taking him the word and at
the same time I was taking him the word, uh
the work wife. She got a husband too, but I
didn't know this at the time because she just started.
So when I was leaving, I see her, I see
her husband like mean up in the mess out of
my mind. So I wanted to be like, what's up?
(17:18):
Why are you looking at him like that? Like, because
like it was something that didn't sit right with me.
So I made a mental note of this. So the
next time I went, it was she wasn't with her husband,
she was by herself, so she was looking at me
my car mostue I got real stark shit. So you
can't see in there. I can see her, she can't
(17:39):
see me. So she's just looking ugly at heil that.
Speaker 8 (17:42):
I'm like, damn, sup.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Oh no, what kind of call do you have?
Speaker 5 (17:45):
First of all, what kind of call you?

Okay, okay, God you wanted to make sure it wasn't
the one.
Speaker 12 (18:06):
Series dad go So uh okay.
Speaker 19 (18:08):
So long story short for the way she looked at me,
I said, oh, let's I said. I said, let me
go through this phone, because I go through the phone
like maybe every six or seven months, depending on how
I feel like.
Speaker 11 (18:20):
I just go through the phone.
Speaker 19 (18:21):
I normally don't be finding nothing, but so I go
right to her. It's just the same. I called it
the same day only thing I met because I want
to see how farthers gon go, because I feel like
I stopped it because I crashed out light way. Because
when I went through the phone and went to their message,
this person was like regular little work stuff. So then
(18:42):
I started seeing the most he kind of corny, so
I know that's this way. I flirted so like, but
he talked a lot, so uh so she gonna send
a picture, she said, three pictures and they and they
was like sexy pictures. But she weak. She she she
they would say some sex. She pictured something about some
eyes a man contact.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
Ma'am man, manam man, I need to tell you something
that they don't tell you at dinner. Stop because well
you're going too long. Could you get to the point please,
you said.
Speaker 19 (19:18):
Okay, okay, I tried to. She don't worked there no more.
I beat him on his sleep because him to do this.
I told him to do this the same what if
he tried to be sneaking, ain't tell me like, oh
he ain't tell me you know what I caught. If
he would have been like, oh man, now she's buying back.
Speaker 18 (19:36):
On what you told me to do.
Speaker 19 (19:38):
The only reason I told him to work with her
so she can work for him, and he so he.
Speaker 11 (19:43):
Can still be I don't know.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
I don't like any of this. You opened up the door,
you know what I mean? And I don't know why
you opened up Pandora's box like that. I do not
know why you did that. She said something, but you
gonna beat him up for telling him to do something that.
Speaker 12 (19:59):
Fall and you beat him up? What size was the girl?
Speaker 19 (20:02):
She man, I'm old enough to be her mam ma
and I and that's her thing? She like, ain't you fifty?
But if we put that next to each other, you
will be trying to figure out who's fifty? Like she
you know, she's start. My thing is that he didn't
tell me what she did, Like I acpect everything that
she did that she was going to do okay, But
(20:24):
I had to I had to go through the phone
and find and he that he was lying about it.
That He's like, no, like, what what did you lying for? I?
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Because you just as messy to you called you caused
a lot of this mess. You told that man to
flirt with that woman and there's no limit to flirting.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Did you say did you did you give him a limit?
Speaker 19 (20:42):
Right? But he was supposed to tell. Yeah, the limit
was like if she biting back, you let me know,
like and then but he didn't. And then when I
asked him, like, I tried to wake him up, but
he I tried to wake him up, but he trying
to fake sleep when I had that phone in this space.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Yeah, you are so messy, so messy, I mean juicy,

Law La roses here as well, and we got a
special guest in the building. We have Sean welcome.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Brother, good morning, good morning.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
How you feeling.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
I am cold, cold, cold man. No, I am believing.
And this is why when I was here the last time,
I was talking about how much belieze is paradise and
this really underpins why I believe it's paradise.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
But go where you cared from.
Speaker 12 (22:11):
Did you get them cold Brooklyn days and nights and
waiting for the bus?
Speaker 5 (22:15):
And this.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Is this is beyond brick. Nothing is crazy. Nothing existed
when I was in Brooklyn at this level.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
It's seven degrees shan.
Speaker 12 (22:30):
You went to school in snow where now if it
is cancel school snowing.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
But I don't remember being this brick. Maybe you know
there's a lot of trauma, so I've you know, buried
some of those memories, but I don't remember being this cold.
Speaker 12 (22:45):
Well, let's start off with saying congratulations. You're about to
celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of the Shine album, and
you also have the twenty fifth anniversary world tour, with
New York being the first stop.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
That's right, that's right. The Shine came out September twenty six,
two thousand, so we're in the year of the celebration.
It was this September twenty sixth that passed, right. But
I was working out my work status here because the
(23:18):
last time I was here, I was here as the
leader of the opposition if I recalled. So I was
here as a diplomat but then I had to transition,
you know, as a worker, so I wasn't able to
come earlier to start the tour. But you know, we
started all of that out and yeah, so now we're
gonna perform and celebrate the album, you know, which was
(23:41):
a very special album to me, very special album to
a lot of people throughout the United States and throughout
the world. You know. I was at the the Africa
Awards in Los Angeles over the weekend, so African American
Film Critics Award, and so Ryan Kugler, who obviously everybody
(24:02):
knows who that is, broke the records for most Oscar
nominations for sinners, so he was getting a bunch of awards,
and so when I saw him, he was like, yo,
you know, we grew up to your music and he's
from Oakland. But that just shows you the impact that
the Shine album had. And I never got a chance
(24:22):
to really, you know, even appreciate my career because that
album came out September twenty six, two thousand and by
March I was in Captivity, so like five months.
Speaker 12 (24:38):
You know, that's I would love you to discuss, right, So, yeah,
of course that album came out and it was a
huge album.
Speaker 8 (24:44):
Right.
Speaker 12 (24:44):
You had Bad Boys, This Gangster Body and Shine. Those
are the singles off that Yeah album.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Then you had songs like the Commission. You had songs
like N Word going. I would kind of change that chorus,
but like Pharrell made that record, that's like one of
my favorite record because when you hear me perform that
at Kingstadar on May second, it's gonna be a movie.
But records on the album.
Speaker 12 (25:07):
My question is you you were huge back then, right,
and and you got it locked up. You talked about
it last time. You had the amount of time you
spent and when you came out, you changed a lot, right.
You talked about your change, and you know, you go
to Jerusalem and you're reading the Taurrah and then you're
getting into politics, right, and then you became the total
opposite in my opinion of who you were as a
(25:29):
young man.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Right.
Speaker 12 (25:30):
At one time you were talking gangster ish and shooting
and blowing people's heads off. And you talk about stories
of you carrying guns, and I've heard stories about you
and the Bad Boys office carrying guns and pulling out
all types of nines and blocks and all types of stuff. Right,
And you can't you changed, totally change. You became a
gentleman that was speaking positivity, uh trying to instead of
(25:52):
uh promote crime, you were against it. You would you
were talking community, trying to get.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
Kids off the streets.
Speaker 12 (25:59):
But the lyrics back then twenty five years ago was
still the lyrics twenty five years ago. So as Shine
to change, gentlemen, how do you perform those records?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I think you got to listen to those lyrics. If
you listen to the America, I'm only what you made me, young,
black crazy, Please save me. I'm dying inside in case
you see it in my eyes. Maybe if you would
teach me how to do a craft or trade. I
(26:28):
come off the corner, stop serving at yay, build schools
instead of prison. I stop living the way that I'm living.
That's poetry. That's me crying out for help. That applies
today to the NBA Young Boys, the same way it
applied to Shine back then. If you listen to you
know what you're gonna do when it hit the fan.
(26:51):
That's integrity. That's character. That's me talking about. You know,
I'm telling my life story and saying that I abide
by certain codes and I get my friends in trouble
and you know, being honest to who I am and
trying to survive these streets. I don't think my album
(27:12):
or my raps I would say. I know, we're never
Quentin Tarantino or you know, violent rap. I was talking
about my life. I was giving you a dissertation as
to what I was going through. And if you listen
carefully enough, I was always saying, this is not what
(27:34):
I want to do. I would like to escape this.
But when you talk about the performance, people like Ryan
Coogler and other people, regular people grew up to my music,
and so it's a celebration of that. You know, maybe
when I'm performing there might be a few words that
you know, I let the audience say and I wouldn't say.
(27:56):
But it's a celebration of the music of the evil
and art is not to be condemned, right, But it's
it's definitely not as much as what you're saying. If
you listen to those those lyrics, it's really telling the
story of uh, you know, eighteen year old, nineteen year
old that's trying to navigate the muddy waters of you know,
(28:19):
what the system created. That's how I remember And if
you go lyrics for lyrics, you'll find a lot of
you know, please help me. This is not what I
really want to do, but this is what I'm doing.
I gotta defend myself, you know, I gotta protect myself.
That that was the energy that I was given.
Speaker 12 (28:35):
And I'm not I'm not judging. Don't think I'm judging
because I grew up to this music. I play his music,
I DJ his music. But it's always interesting when when
I have somebody like yourself or even you know, Mace,
because Mace was probably one of the first one that
we seen do it. Where Mace is you know, talking,
you know, bullets hit off the car bling bling ding
ding whatever, and then when he comes out as a
pastor and then he comes back as a rap, it's like, well,
(28:57):
can he do those lyrics?
Speaker 13 (28:59):
Right?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
And it's not a judge.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
It's that when people see people change, they're for it.
They agree with it, all right. I agree with the
change because some people don't have the balls to do it.
Some people don't have the haven't evolved to do it.
But then when they do it, it's like, that's a
good thing. I understand why he did it. Where he's
going with it. But then when it goes back to
the rap and it's like, well, how do you go
back and forth? And I'm like, when I hear rapers
(29:22):
like you know, uh yeah, hope you die slow death.
As I coke test see the Lord's protests. Can't put
your weak rap is with your gay ass raps running
around talking this and that. I'm like, how does shine
do that? You know what I mean. But then on
the other side, like please to my friends and believes.
You know, I'm trying to get the kids like I
just and I'm not judging.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
I'm just as but I think I think creativity. We
were talking about that in the green room. Creativity is
not as simple as you know. You just read it.
That's a that's a poem. That's a work of art
that people love, and this is a celebration of that.
(30:03):
And even in my evolved state, I still help artists
and belieze and I still support artists, you know, whether
it's offset Qwavo or a Pusher Ta or all these
young kids that I see and I run into them
and we talk and I inspire them. I'm not here
to tell them, you know, well you shouldn't rap like
(30:23):
this or you should rap like that. So, you know,
my creative expressions should be studied in Harvard, should be
in the museum they're trying in history. So it's not
something that I'm ashamed of. That was a young shine,
That's how he felt, that's what he was going through,
and he expressed himself. And so celebrating that expression. This
is not for you know, a twelve year old kid
(30:45):
or thirteen year old kid to come to my concert.
You know, these are adults that are going to be
in the room celebrating that body of work. Now, if
you're asking me about my new album, that's not what
I'm going to be saying.
Speaker 12 (30:58):
And I would hope not you're not, but but but.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
I think I think I think it would be it
would be very unfair to deprive uh, you know, people
that love that body of work correct from that celebration.
And as I said, there's a way for me to
do it, right, don't. I don't. I don't necessarily need to.
You know, there's there's crowd participation, right, so I could
(31:22):
you know who want to.
Speaker 12 (31:26):
You know what I mean, what type of what type
of brothers?
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Thank you?
Speaker 7 (31:37):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Laurden.
Speaker 20 (31:40):
I mean, envy has a point though, I mean, but
I think you probably got a lot of this even
before this tour when you I mean just as a
politician now.
Speaker 12 (31:48):
But people performed since we've seen them, right, I think,
So the great thing.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Is to wait and see what is Sean gonna do?
Is he gonna say the album in a.
Speaker 12 (32:04):
Can't can? I?
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Hold on?
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Hold on, hold on, my good hold on?
Speaker 5 (32:11):
Who did it?
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Who was the first one to do it? With the fitted,
fitted low going in the court with the Gucci suit,
with the time come on, come on, Hevy, come on
heavy right?
Speaker 12 (32:22):
What changed your mind? I think last time you were
up here, you were like you weren't thinking about performing,
and you said the only time that you think you
would perform is if it was like a Grammys or
a BT and they were showing you love, and that
you weren't interested in performing. What changed your mind?
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I mean, twenty five years is that's a milestone. People
don't really get to celebrate a twenty fifth anniversary and
still be relevant twenty five years later. And also I'm
no longer in the House of Representatives, so my focus
shifted somewhat. I'm still focused on becoming the next Prime
(33:00):
Minister of Belize. At some point I had a twenty
thirty agenda and some way ahead a schedule on that.
I still focus on helping the people in Mesopotamia, which
is a constituency I used to represent. But when I
lost my seat, you know, I had a few things
that I've been delaying due to being in the legislator.
(33:23):
So now I'm involved in real estate development for tourism
and Belieze, I get to finish my memoir, God bless you.
I have film projects to do, Like I have a
lot to do that I couldn't do because I was
in the legislator, and I'm one of those people that's
singular obsessed with whatever it is I am doing, and
(33:46):
I just didn't feel comfortable focusing much on the creative
as I did when I was in the legislator. Now
I'm not, so I have a couple of years before
the next election to do this. And this is not random.
It's my twenty fifth anniversary. I'm not gonna be able
to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary ever again. So it's
a great way to celebrate twenty five years of Shine,
(34:10):
the first album, and to create new music.
Speaker 12 (34:12):
And I think it's dope because I mean, I'm from
New York, so I remember the impact that record had
on New York. But I also feel a little bad
for you as well, right, And the reason I say
that is when that album came out, I don't think
you ever got a chance to enjoy it because at
that same time, you were on court and you never
got a chance to go to talk because you went
you got locked up, So you never got a chance
(34:34):
to enjoy the fruits of your labor during that time.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
October November, December, pick jewelry, January, ready for trial February, convicted,
March sixteenth. So I think not just me, but the
people that love the music never got the chance to
celebrate it. So this is really a celebration, you know.
(34:59):
And we're going to bring some special guests to help
me celebrate. From the hip hop world, from the danceholl world.
It's gonna be incredible.
Speaker 12 (35:07):
So what do you say people just want the last
question on it? What do you say to people that say, Sean,
is this about the money?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Money?
Speaker 8 (35:17):
Nah?
Speaker 2 (35:18):
That that's that's irrelevant. That's not a you don't you
don't take these steps in life just uh to get
a check. I've been good. I spent millions of dollars
in believe in politics, and that's how I became the
leader of the opposition. Inconsequential, you know, you just got
(35:41):
to do things, which is in line with what I
had said to you. It would have to be something special,
and so this is specially twenty fifth anniversary is special.
The albums that I'm going to come out with are attached.
I think if you go back to that interview, I
mentioned it that I would do albums that were attached
to the film projects. So I never put out the
(36:04):
album for the Honorable Shine documentary, So that's going to
be especially curated album. Then I have the TV series,
the Bio TV series about my life that's another album.
Then we have the motion picture that's the final album.
And then I would by that time be ready for
(36:25):
the elections. So you know, what should I do? Should
I just sit around for three years and not do
anything like what you mentioned? Is the furthest thing from
my mind is just how do I spend my time?
And what have I been neglecting? What have I not
been doing that I could do? You know, when you
think about all that I've been through politically, been through
(36:50):
a lot I'm writing a book on that. You know,
there was a coup in my party. You know, they
try to overthrow throw me. They broke all types of laws.
I had to take them to court. It was that
was a movie within itself. And so I lost my
seat because I took all that I had and gave
(37:10):
it to my colleagues. Because I was a leader, so
I took and I took what I thought was enough
for myself. But I made sure because in Belize parliamentary
system of governance, you can't become prime minister unless you
have a majority of the seats in the House of Representatives,
(37:30):
and as the leader, you're responsible for getting everyone to sixteen.
So we need sixteen seats. So I made a promise.
I'm their leader. We're in the battlefield. It's bad, we're
all about to go down, but I'm not gonna, you know,
turn around and be like, all right, well, let's get
in the tank, and you know they gonna figure it out.
I made sure everybody had tanks, and I made sure
(37:52):
everyone was good. So that was a lot. So now
as I catch my breath and I think about, you know,
what to do next, I'm grateful for my own sanity
and for my you know, my my emotional stability, spirituality,
that I have something to do, which is incredible. To
(38:14):
be able to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary, to make
new projects, to being you know, to be able to
go to California and go to doctor Dre's house and
and you know, to go in the studio and for
him to play beats for me. That's that's a blessing.
That's a miracle. Like a lot of people can't go
to California and get in front of Dred.
Speaker 5 (38:38):
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
So so like that's where I'm at with with with
my art and what I'm doing now in life. And
as I said, the projects to the real estate projects,
you know, being able to work with somebody like Don Pooh,
you know, Robert Cummins, you know Brooklyn Chophouse, to open
a Brooklyn chop house and believe with a resort. Uh
you know, like so so so I have a lot
(39:01):
of blessings, very fortunate, and I never shied away from
who I was as an entertainer. I reject the idea that,
oh well, if you're an entertainer, just be an entertainer,
Just be be an athlete. You know, you shouldn't be
involved in politics. I'm not gonna get involved in American politics.
Speaker 15 (39:21):
That's y'all.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
That's y'all's problem or or or whatever it is. But
I just believe that hip hop is so diverse and
we could do anything. You know, we were or are we?
Fashion designers, you know, movie producers, restaurants, hoteliers, like that's
(39:43):
just that's always.
Speaker 9 (39:43):
Been a hip hop speaking of our problem? Or do
you ask citizenship in the US? Or is that you
ain't even right about it?
Speaker 5 (39:51):
No more?
Speaker 2 (39:51):
I'm I'm oh one worker, so exhordinary ability worker. So
I have a visa as an old one extraordinary ability
working so I could live and work in the United States.
Speaker 20 (40:06):
What would you say to people and I've seen you
talk about, you know, your relationship lack they're of a Diddy,
But what would you say to people who feel like
you're finally getting kind of like, I mean, the support
that a lot of people didn't give you back when
the child was happening because Diddy was like the mega superstar.
But now people see him in a different light, so
people are more kind of open to hearing anything that
(40:28):
doesn't make him like this big, mega perfect person.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Well, did He's not really interrelated with anything that I'm
doing right now. I think that I've been able to
build my legacy, and I've always had the support of
the hip hop community. There was a point where, like
(40:52):
the hip hop community, you remember, it kind of hated
Diddy when I went away, and they didn't want anything
to do with him. But you know, being the Charlottean,
the very convincing person that he is, he knows how
to get everybody, you know, back in line. But I've
always had support, you know, throughout my incarceration. You know,
(41:15):
jay Z was coming to Rikers Island on the Mayback.
You know when God he God blessed his soul, was
at the height of his power and murdered Ink. They
all came up there to try to sign me nods.
Uh you know Doctor Dre, I was just talking, uh
to my guy Monie Helly, who was managing Keisha, Cole
(41:38):
Future and a bunch of you know superstars. But hey,
yeah money, he say yeah, man so he when he
first discovered Keisha, it was between him and Doctor Dre
because Doctor Dre had this new kid called the Game,
and they wanted a verse from Shine and Manny, who
(42:01):
I came up with Roll Flatbush and my guy. We
started in the cradle. He wanted the record for his artists,
but everybody wanted to Shine record, but it only could
be one, and I gave it to Manny because of
our brotherhood, So I wouldn't say that. You know, people
people always embrace Shined in When I came out, Remember
(42:24):
I did, I did. I did a deal while I
was away, went number one again despite remember and and
you know I did the I don't know if Double
XL people remember Double XL the death before the sign
of cover and the most hip hop most wanted cover.
And I was always telling people who did he was
(42:46):
the irony, I guess, is just that, well, now you
know every everything had everything, well everything has collapsed and
every and the curtain has been removed. And I was like,
it's you know, irrefutable for most peop people, everything that
I said back then, But then for me it's like
I'm gone. It's like, you know, for real, and the clips,
(43:08):
you know, respect to them on that great album where
you know that record where he says I'm so so
far gone, like I'm you know, as soon as they wanted.
I don't want to know more, I'm somewhere else, So
it's like for me, I'm not I'm not there.
Speaker 12 (43:22):
That was rumored that they asked you to, uh be
part of the Diddy doc You know.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
I saw I saw Alex that directed the film.
Speaker 5 (43:32):
That's her name the record.
Speaker 20 (43:34):
Yeah, yeah, I know it's Alex because I remember I
hit you and I'm like, hey, what happened?
Speaker 2 (43:40):
And I told you I'm coming out with a new
album and you ain't saying that. Listen. She wants to
scoop right, So I'm like, listen, you know I'm coming
out with a new album, new to all that. I'm
thinking she gonna go back. Well listen, Sean said he
working on a new album, but he gonna, you know,
pop up on no. I wanted you to say that.
Speaker 9 (44:01):
I didn't know.
Speaker 20 (44:02):
I thought you were saying that like when the time
is right.
Speaker 7 (44:04):
I didn't know you wanted me to.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
I thought, you know, you gotta be specific with me.
Speaker 12 (44:09):
You got so did they reach out?
Speaker 2 (44:11):
But she said she did. But I tell you that,
I tell you honestly, I'm so focused on me and
Believe and all the great things that are before me. Uh.
I didn't see the documentary, but I heard I heard
that it's it's great as powerful as this award winning worthy.
(44:33):
I you know, they I heard I was in the
documentary even though I didn't speak, but obviously they told
the truth about what I've been saying. So nothing that
I'm saying is different than what I've said before. But
I didn't watch it because I I just that's my trauma.
So so without getting into what he did to Cassie
(45:00):
and what he did to all the other people that
have accused him, and I see that, like there's some
people that saying, oh, well, you know, well Cassie, Cassie
wanted it up. Well, yeah, that's what she signed up for.
You know, we all can't be wrong, right, So it's like,
I know what he did to me as far as
(45:22):
sending me to prison. He was one of the most
powerful people in the world, and he used his money
and his power to make sure that witnesses lied. People
went in there. Not to say, listen, Sean was defending
did he because we I owned up to having the weapon.
There was no dispute to that, but it was a
(45:43):
matter of self defense, and he had the power to
make sure that if people went in there, they told
the truth. And Sean was defending all of us. He
didn't do that. He said listen, somebody gotta go down.
And he wasn't a gentleman. He didn't say listen, listen,
just cop out or this is how we're gonna do it.
(46:04):
I'm gonna make sure family good for life, You good
for life, but we need you to take this hit. No,
it was like you're gonna take the hit because the
DA was offered me thirteen years, so I couldn't even
get a reasonable plea, and then I think the judge
offered me like seven years. But I say all that
to say, uh, what he did to me, I would
(46:26):
never do to another human being. Worst thing in the
world to send somebody to prison. So I could imagine
all these other things that people are saying. But his
celebrity is so loud, was so loud, and you can
still see it creeping in sometimes because you see people
come out and start attacking the victims. It was the
(46:46):
same thing that kind of happened to me, where after
a certain point people are like, shut up, we don't
want to hear about that. You know, let's party, let's
drink Sarah. So I don't want to. I don't want to.
I don't even want to talk about that. But I
respect my responsibility to you, to the audience, to you know,
when you text me, I told you want to come
(47:07):
up here, you can ask me.
Speaker 20 (47:08):
That's why I didn't mention anything, because I felt like
it was unfair to bring you into that conversation because
we're reported on Dating is documentary and it's like, oh, well,
shine in new music. So when you said you were
willing to come and talk, I was like, all right,
I make sure it happened so that you can have
your own conversation about good You're.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Good, like like.
Speaker 12 (47:25):
She was great, DM me talk about my content, damn it,
talk about my damn it.
Speaker 2 (47:30):
We're talking about listen, not that not that you you
going back on tour for the money.
Speaker 19 (47:36):
Right even really.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
People think, so, you know, why would somebody think that.
It's not like I'm out here stunting. I'm like, listen,
I take the tray like I'm a regular guy. Like
it's not like I think if people, it's not like
I'm fronting, like I'm out here in front like I
got a hundred millions.
Speaker 7 (47:55):
And you heard something.
Speaker 12 (47:56):
The first thing that people say is, well, why did
they come back.
Speaker 2 (47:59):
You know, especially I never got it said the last time.
Speaker 12 (48:01):
I said, he was like, I don't want to because.
Speaker 2 (48:03):
I was in the legislator. I was in the legislator.
No no, no no, But I'm still Obama who got
I got the I got the prolo crust on, but
I still.
Speaker 7 (48:13):
Got you know what I mean?
Speaker 12 (48:16):
Alright, shut up, it's the breakfast clu, good morning.
Speaker 7 (48:20):
Trying to beat donkey today?
Speaker 8 (48:21):
No more.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did.
Speaker 7 (48:23):
I'm not making these people do these days.
Speaker 9 (48:25):
Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me
off guard.
Speaker 10 (48:28):
Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day
to day?
Speaker 6 (48:33):
Well, jess Hilarian's donkey today goes to a real estate
agent named Stephanie Lovins. And I'm gonna let you know
it right now. The mayonnaise is heavy on this story. Okay,
Stephanie used to work for Century twenty one. We all
know what Century twenty one is, correct, Yes, big real
estate company. Stephanie was a real estate agent there, but
she isn't anymore.
Speaker 7 (48:50):
She got fired.
Speaker 6 (48:51):
Okay, she got fired because Stephanie was dining at a
Mexican restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. Salute that everybody who listens
to us on one oh six point seven to beat
in Columbus, Ohio dropping the clues bombs for one of
sixty seven eight in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you for listening
to the world's most dangerous morning show. Now, before I
tell you about Stephanie, I just need to remind you
that since the start of President Trump's second term, thousands
(49:14):
of undocumented migrants have been getting arrested and deported.
Speaker 5 (49:18):
We know this, Okay, Tom Holman.
Speaker 6 (49:20):
And Ice Ice baby not playing and there are a
lot of undocumented migrants in this country who are scared
to death. Okay, Ice has asked me to go on
a couple of ride alongs. There is a part of
me that wants to see for myself what is happening,
how it's happening, so I can properly report on it.
But let's just stick to the story. I just needed
to remind you of what's going on in this country
to give the proper context to this story.
Speaker 7 (49:40):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (49:41):
Stephanie Lovin's was dining at a restaurant called Cazula's Mexican Cantina,
and she had a waiter named Ricardo. Now Ricardo is
a US citizen, But who cares about that minor detail
at a time like this? Okay, Stephanie got upset with Ricardo,
and she did this. Let's go to eighty six News
for report.
Speaker 3 (49:59):
Police customers head into Casuela's Mexican Cantina on.
Speaker 5 (50:02):
East broad Street.
Speaker 3 (50:04):
Just days after this photo was snapped of a receipt
a customer left behind Sunday that includes no tip and
a hateful message reading you suck.
Speaker 5 (50:13):
I hope Trump deports you.
Speaker 6 (50:15):
I think it's despicable.
Speaker 12 (50:17):
You know that's not who America is.
Speaker 9 (50:19):
You know we're all immigrants.
Speaker 3 (50:21):
Just hours after the photo of the eighty seven dollars
bill was posted a social media, it went viral. The
restaurants shane not allowing ABC six to talk with employees,
but in a statement telling us, in part, we are
deeply disappointed by the offensive message left on a recent receipt,
which goes against our values and the welcoming environment we
strive to create. There is no place for hate in
(50:43):
our restaurant. Can't talk to our employees and everybody ain't
got their papers.
Speaker 6 (50:46):
But in the signature section of her receipt, Stephanie wrote,
I hope Trump deports you. This isn't fair to migrants, okay,
because a lot of Mexicans especially have just become the
post to children for undocumented migrants. And that's not fair
because most Mexican immigrants in the US are documented, but
a significant number are not. But that does not give
people like Stephanie a right to profile them. Now I
(51:07):
know what a lot of y'all are thinking, because I
was thinking it too. How bad was Ricardo's service that
Stephanie wanted him to port?
Speaker 13 (51:15):
It like?
Speaker 6 (51:15):
This just wasn't a random attack, was it? You just
don't go from zero to deport him? Did he not
bring the guacamolean chips to the table fast enough that
she asked for no salt around the remember from Margarita
and Ricardo bought one with salt? Anyway, she wrote, I
hope Trump deport you, followed by zero you suck? Zero
is the amount of the tip that she wanted to leave.
But how bad was the service that she did all
(51:36):
of this? Did Ricardo not speak proper English? So there
was miscommunication? I'm just trying to figure out or I
was just trying to figure out how terrible a Mexican
service must be if you want them to port it.
I'm gonna be honest, every encounter I've ever had with
a Mexican in the service industry has been pleasant.
Speaker 7 (51:53):
Okay, dropping the clues bombs.
Speaker 6 (51:54):
For all the Mexicans in the service street, they are
super friendly, respectful, very hospitable, warm, which is why they
threw in the service industry in this country.
Speaker 5 (52:01):
So how bad was Ricardo's.
Speaker 6 (52:04):
Service that Stephanie not only said, I hope Trump deports you,
but you sucking god zero tip. Well, if that's what
you were thinking, that's wrong. That's not what happened. Stephanie
decided to have a side of racism with her Chimney
Changa because the restaurant had a one coupon per table
policy one coupon per table. Let the record show that
(52:25):
one coupon per table usually means one coupon per purchase,
So you can get one item, you can't use the
coupon for the whole table. I know that's where the
discrepancy lied. But the reason Stephanie is getting donkey of
to day is because she had first denied any involvement.
In fact, she went on social media and claimed that
her credit card had been.
Speaker 7 (52:47):
Lost or stolen and that someone else used it.
Speaker 6 (52:50):
But this proved to be a lie because the restaurant
has cameras, and the restaurant reviewed the footage and confirmed
that Stephanie had been sitting in her ass right there
in that restaurant the whole time. By the way, I
like a good liar, okay, I like a person who
makes up extravagant lies and follows through with the lies.
Stephanie went on Facebook and said, my credit card was lost,
(53:11):
are stolen, and somebody attempted to use it. Thanks for
the notifications. This has been reported through my bank. Then
she went on LinkedIn and said, thank you for all
the recent notifications of scammers and profile hackers. I recently
discovered a loss or missing credit card and an attempted purchase.
I appreciate your patience while I managed the situation. Then
she deleted all her social media accounts altogether smart because
(53:34):
she doesn't got the heart to stand on what she said.
I like a good liar, but I like a person
who stands on what they said. Even more, if you
wanted Ricardo to get deported, then stand on that. But
I guess that racism wasn't worth losing your job, was it?
Please let Chelsea handle give Stephanie Lovins the biggest he
haw hee haw hee haw That is way too much,
(53:55):
Dan Manes, You're a real estate agent, worked for Century
twenty one. You lost your job because you couldn't use
a coupon. You want a man deported because you're clearly
not selling any houses and wanted to use your coupon.
Speaker 5 (54:08):
I'm with you. How bad was the service? Where you
got a pen and wrote that down?
Speaker 6 (54:11):
And the service wasn't bad. That's what I thought at
first when I first read the story. She was actually
upsetting because she couldn't use the coupon. That's what she
was upseting. By Rocardo about yes and we know you
love Yeah, So what's next?
Speaker 7 (54:29):
I we know you loved the service of Mexico.
Speaker 5 (54:31):
I did I love the service?
Speaker 8 (54:33):
Yes? I did?
Speaker 5 (54:34):
And that's all all right?
Speaker 6 (54:37):
So it's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning yep was more
dangerous Morning you to Breakfast Club. Charlamagne and God just hilarious.
Envy and Laura are out, but we got some special
guests in the building right now. He's got a new
album out, Choirt Storm Lover.

How do you feel, my brother?
Speaker 13 (55:09):
I feel good, man, you know, I feel vibrant.
Speaker 21 (55:12):
I feel like I reinvented myself once again, you know,
And I'm thankful just to have my name in the
conversation after all these years, you know, twenty years of
the love experience and being in the music business. You know,
we celebrated that last year, you know, twenty twenty five.
So I'm actually currently in approaching year twenty one of
my first album, you know what I mean. And it's great, man,
(55:35):
it's great. It's a great I mean, you know. And
what better place to be in the morning my breakfast club.
Speaker 5 (55:40):
Thank you, brother.
Speaker 6 (55:40):
I feel like your name is always in the conversation,
Like we had Jill Scott up here. Jill Scott was
talking about how like there's certain artists that it ain't
about number one records, it ain't about you know, going
triple platinum or anything like that, but their name is
just always relevant and in the mix, and.
Speaker 5 (55:58):
I feel like you're one of them, especially when it
come R and B.
Speaker 13 (56:00):
I appreciate that, you know that. I think that that's pulse,
that's culture.
Speaker 21 (56:04):
You know, that's what that's that you know, that's that's
that's what I've always strived and aspired to inspire to be,
you know, at this point in my career. And yeah,
it's it's it's you know, it's not. We make it
look easy as an independent artist. I've been independent for
fifteen years, you know what I mean. So I've been
I've been my own trial and error in Guinea Pig
for a lot of different things. You know, even even
(56:25):
this release, you know this is an early release. There's
two there's there's two releases that that have happened, you
know what I mean. Shout out to even da Biz
and mad Rodriguez for for creating a platform that allows
us to go direct the consumer, you know, cut out
the middle man, a third party. It's the second time
j Cole has used the platform, you know, you know,
uh and most recently and back being back outside, I
(56:45):
actually discovered the platform through through uh L Russell, you know,
who's the case study artist. Yeah, and then we got
and then we got technology like like this, you know
n f c's you know, uh digital real estate where
where we allowed you know, the fans to get school content.
Speaker 13 (57:01):
Memorabilia and yeah.
Speaker 21 (57:03):
Man, so it's about being on the cutting edge of it,
you know, and and I got I got in early too,
you know, if you know, you know, you know investment talk,
you know what I mean. So so so it's about
not just it's not just about utilizing the tool. You know,
find a way to have you know, ownership in the tool,
(57:23):
you know what I mean, partnership in the tool.
Speaker 6 (57:25):
Screaming is like you've you've been around long enough to
see both sides of screaming is just a.
Speaker 12 (57:29):
Waste of time for artists, well, I mean yeah absolutely.
Speaker 21 (57:31):
When you when you when you see Jimmy Ive going
publicly saying that streaming is on his last leg, I mean,
you know, for me, it's just like you know, as
somebody who came out in two thousand and two, different
with the first record deal with Job and then the
album dropped in two thousand and five, you know, as
a curator, as a curator and the first R and
B SO singer to make mixtapes you know what I mean,
(57:52):
and being on the cut of cutting cutting edge of innovation,
like it's safe.
Speaker 13 (57:56):
To say CDs are back. Yeah, physical physical merchan is back.
Speaker 21 (58:02):
You know which by the way, you know, you get
the album on even, you get access to CDs, tape, cassettes,
vinyl that I got coming for for my top tier supporters.
On even, you get a second album that's not even out,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 15 (58:16):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (58:16):
So so so you know, no shade to any of
the DSPs. You know, I still rock with Apple. I
still rock with title.
Speaker 13 (58:24):
You know what I mean. The digital release for.
Speaker 21 (58:27):
The album you know where it goes global, uh, will
be on March six, you know, you know, but right
now we're focused on the super fans and give them,
the super fans an experience that only they can get.
Speaker 13 (58:38):
And uh, you know, I'm.
Speaker 21 (58:40):
Schooling, exchooling Spotify, Like that's the only place i'thing I
put on my music right now.
Speaker 13 (58:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 21 (58:44):
You running ice ads, Yeah, yeah, for sure, like they
will running You catch that they were.
Speaker 13 (58:51):
Definitely run Yeah, put it on your music.
Speaker 9 (58:53):
I mean they'll put it.
Speaker 21 (58:56):
And then and then and then and then the thing
where and then there's a thing where there's a lot
of if you go down the rabbit hole in terms
of moral compass, it's.
Speaker 13 (59:02):
Just things I don't agree with, you know what I mean?
Speaker 21 (59:04):
And then and then you and then you add the
fact that you know, we get a fraction of a
penny as an artist anyway, but that they've been robbing
as blind. It's a billion dollar company and we get
a fraction of a penny. So when you when you
utilize a platform like Even where you know a couple
My first release on Even was twenty thirteen Valentine's Day,
February thirteenth. That project went on to do somewhere between
(59:27):
like thirty and forty K, and only five hundred people
bought that album before I went, before I made it
public to the world, you know what I mean. So
you do the math, five hundred people, you know, thirty
or forty k? You know what you have to stream
to make thirty forty K? Like you know what I'm
saying these days, so so so so Yes, I applaud
(59:48):
the fact that you know that that CDs are back
and Vinyl never left and even for the cassette tape
levers out there trying to figure how we can get it,
how we can get it on a track Charlomagne yea yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:00:01):
Interesting records. I feel so sorry for artists.
Speaker 6 (01:00:04):
I would be the person that would go to your
page and buy your album and download it to my phone.
Speaker 13 (01:00:09):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
I would do that because when you.
Speaker 9 (01:00:12):
Say a fraction of you know, a bunch, a fraction
of a penny, and they don't even make pennies no more.
Speaker 7 (01:00:16):
Did you know that, right?
Speaker 21 (01:00:17):
I mean, hey, that's modern day slavery. But did you
know no, No, I know, yeah, I got I got
me right, I got a fifty roll.
Speaker 12 (01:00:28):
So that the name of the.
Speaker 9 (01:00:29):
Album quiet, Quiet Storm lover tone them that's a significance.
Speaker 21 (01:00:33):
Well, you know, you know, you know, I mean transparently,
I don't speak a link a lick of Frisch closest
against us to the title of this album. Right, But
but you know, French has always been associated with the
love language.
Speaker 13 (01:00:45):
You know, you know you know what I mean?
Speaker 21 (01:00:46):
And uh, you know, I probably you know, pepulate, people
probably know it's my French tonight.
Speaker 6 (01:00:51):
Why why well just say, like, why did you feel
like the first chapter or something bigger instead of like
a standalone album but you know I.
Speaker 21 (01:00:59):
Want I won't give all the game away today, but
I will say, you know, having the number one night
time showing the music in the DMV. Right now, I've
been I've been doing the original Choirs Storm. I'm now
doing radio full time Monday through Friday. And it's been
so surreal because I grew up listening to h U R.
I grew up listening to the quair Storm. You know,
Melvin Lindsay.
Speaker 13 (01:01:19):
It's where it started in d C. You know, Uh,
Kathy Hughes was was was the one who came up with.
Speaker 21 (01:01:25):
The idea, gave it the Melvin And so now that
being in hot seat, I'm living out my I don't
want to say, like anything I wanted to do as
a child, I'm in that space right now. Like you know,
I wanted to do radio. I wanted to do I
always wanted to have a go go band. I got
a go go band in DC called the Crank Crusades.
Shot out to the Crank Crusaders. You know, I'm doing that,
(01:01:46):
and you know, and I'm doing radio.
Speaker 13 (01:01:47):
So this album.
Speaker 21 (01:01:49):
I think was unique about Quadstorm Lover Volume one in
particular is that, uh it's a fusion of it's a fuw.
It's the fusion of my two my my first love
and my new found love, which is radio and media
and and you know, and when and when you throw that,
you know, it sounds it sounds like you know, it's
it's like, you know, it's a vibe. You don't have
to just let it play. I like laying plays on.
Speaker 6 (01:02:11):
I love when R and B lovers do R and
B radio shows Hotel. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Your Andre Herrel God blessed dead. He used to do
champagnes and champagne and bubbles.
Speaker 21 (01:02:20):
Yeah, it's a vibe, you know. But it all started,
It all started with with the choir Storm. You know
that that format, you know what I mean? So to be,
you know they say you want to make God laugh,
make your own plans to be to be now doing
the original choirs Storm in DC has just been like
I feel like I'm getting my my good karma back
for all of love.
Speaker 13 (01:02:39):
I poured it into the city. You know.
Speaker 9 (01:02:41):
Now with this album, are you writing what were you
writing about what happened in your love life or this
this is a credit or just subjective?
Speaker 21 (01:02:52):
Yeah, I mean, I mean more importantly, just you have
to test the music out, so you got to make sure.
You know, I'm big on customer service, so when you
when you put it together, you got to make sure
that that it works properly. Yeah, you got to have
you got to Yeah, this is be blank, yeah you know,
but I mean yeah, I mean, so, what's also unique
about this album? It's all slow jams. So you know,
(01:03:13):
I'm going on record and saying like you know, like
you know, this is the slow jam album of the year.
That's because it's just a slow jam album of the year.
So if you're looking for you know, I got I
got you know, I can be Raheem Devon, could be
many things, right, but this is slow jam album of
the year. You know, I got some more. I got
some more treats coming, you know in the next twelve
(01:03:34):
to twenty four months. You know, if you if you
love Conscious, Raheem Mixtape, Nick Nixtape, Raheem Devon, you know,
but this is this is like, this is slow jams.
Speaker 8 (01:03:42):
Man.
Speaker 21 (01:03:42):
When you think about the Quiet Storm, you know, you
think about Keith Sweat Sweat Shop, you know what I mean,
Like you think you know it's it's it.
Speaker 13 (01:03:49):
Don't even require too much talking.
Speaker 21 (01:03:50):
It's really about that that that that playlist, a KA,
that laylist and which and what comes you know, what's
coming on before and after?
Speaker 6 (01:03:58):
You know what's interesting R and B to day, Like
it leans so heavy into like basically singing. Sounded like rappers, right,
So it's like a lot of I guess toxicity in
a way. What does healthy love fit in modern R
and B coaching?
Speaker 21 (01:04:12):
I think I think it fits, man, you know, I
think that speaks to someone's mental health. A lot of
time and the space you in. You know, when you
you know, the older you get, you know, I remember
somebody telling me, you know, in my thirties and my twenties,
you know, the forties would be the best time of
your life.
Speaker 13 (01:04:26):
You just got to get there.
Speaker 21 (01:04:27):
Yeah, so you know, by the time you get forty,
you know, I had a half a century. You know
which battles in life depict you know what I mean?
You you you understand the concept of time and that
we're all running out of time. You know, from the
time we get here. You understand, uh, you know, the
gift of decision and free will. Differently, you understand the
gift of one another. I feel like those are the
three greatest gifts. And if you utilize those, you know,
(01:04:50):
through through your artistry or you know, as it relates
that matters of the heart and intimacy, all the things.
Speaker 13 (01:04:56):
You know, you know, life is just a lot easier
and simpler.
Speaker 21 (01:05:00):
But you know, it's it's a it's a learning experience
and and and you know that toxicity is part of
it's part of growth.
Speaker 9 (01:05:07):
I guess you know, I love that you had Ari
Lennox on the voicemail. Yeah, man, with other significance other
than her being from you know, d n V as well.
Speaker 13 (01:05:16):
That was it, you know what I mean, And just
that that that was it.
Speaker 21 (01:05:19):
You know, I feel like, you know, I'm always waving
a flag, you know, for home, for the home team.
You know, whether it's whether it's Ari, you know, whether
it's Wilt, you know, the Crank Crusaders, the back you know,
backyard band essence. You know, artist like Neptune twenty one,
who's hanging out with me, is just an incredible artist.
Speaker 13 (01:05:38):
You know, on the come up, she looks like she
got boss. She just read ready and fired.
Speaker 21 (01:05:46):
She got and shout out to her and her team
because you know she's you know, it's Being an artist
is being many things. It's being is knowing when to
be the artist, is knowing it's starting, you know, Uh,
it's knowing being able to.
Speaker 13 (01:06:00):
Do content, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:06:01):
It's been helping me out, you know, been in charge
of content for for my rollout and uh you know
that that it gives me an opportunity to to do
what I'll do best. And it's just like invest in
and what's next, you know what I mean, like because
that's you know, that's something that you know, me coming
up under the tutelage and the mentorship of like DJ
Jazzy Jeff and you know, Kenny Dope, Louis Vega, you know, uh,
(01:06:25):
DJ Terry Hunter, like a lot of those guys I
met uh and countless artists as well through DJ Jazzy Jeff,
you know what I mean. So I'm just trying to
pay it forward, you know, uh, with with with with
artists and and and then and then and then and
it's and just representing, you know, and then and I
represent for Baltimore.
Speaker 15 (01:06:42):
Two years with it.
Speaker 13 (01:06:45):
What it shout to my Baltimore family too. For sure.
Speaker 5 (01:06:49):
You said something interesting, You said that toxicity is part
of growth.
Speaker 17 (01:06:52):
Right.
Speaker 6 (01:06:52):
And it's funny because I think about the R and
B that I grew up on. The music didn't even
reflect maybe the lives those guys we're living, yeah, which
is crazy, Like the music was all about love, It's
about love making. You know, these guys were begging for
their women back Like why I don't understand why we
don't have that energy now. It's almost like the lives
(01:07:15):
those guys were living outside of the music back then.
Those people are doing now and projecting it in their music.
Speaker 13 (01:07:21):
You know, Charlamagne. Some will blame the generation before us.
Speaker 21 (01:07:25):
Some will say that that that you know, it wasn't
passed down you know, you know, you know, and and
some may argue, you know, we're a product of what
we see.
Speaker 13 (01:07:36):
You know, you know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:07:38):
So you know, if we want to, if if you
want to see more of that love vibration, we got
to you know, breathe life into it. I'm you know,
I'm a powerful man. I believe in manifestation, you know, power,
prayer and you know, but it's the art of I
think it's I think it's a big difference between believing
and knowing.
Speaker 13 (01:07:56):
You know what I mean? And I believe in the art.
You know, I'm in the art of knowing.
Speaker 21 (01:07:59):
Uh yeah, man, you know I hope that I think
with this reason, I won't even call it a resurgence.
Speaker 13 (01:08:05):
I'm glad that Jill is back out, you know.
Speaker 7 (01:08:07):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:08:08):
I'm back outside. I stay outside, you know what I mean.
But but I must admit, like we turning up on
the promo side of things and the marketing side of things,
you know what I mean, But far too long. I mean,
I've probably been an industry best kept secret, you know,
and continue to do the work. It's about consistency, though,
you know, and being consistent.
Speaker 10 (01:08:29):
What's the most important lesson you learned of the album
that you have? You got twenty what is it, twenty.
Speaker 9 (01:08:37):
Lessons of Love?
Speaker 12 (01:08:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (01:08:38):
Right, yeah, Now, what's the.
Speaker 9 (01:08:40):
Most important lesson of love that you learned?
Speaker 8 (01:08:43):
Man?
Speaker 9 (01:08:43):
There's a lot of els.
Speaker 21 (01:08:49):
In order to be happy, you know, happiness requires selfishness
like that. Yeah, yeah, happiness requires selfishness, you know.
Speaker 13 (01:08:57):
What I mean.
Speaker 8 (01:08:58):
So so.
Speaker 21 (01:09:01):
I mean, I think, I think, I think, for one,
being able to to be just raw, blunt and honest,
you know what I mean. Dodge the dodge the gray
areas gray areas can be gray areas can be can't
feel like a safe space, but they can cause confusion.
Speaker 13 (01:09:23):
You know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:09:24):
Uh, but yeah, it's okay to just say it's it's
okay to say no, like you know what I mean.
Happiness require self, and it's like, it's okay to say no.
It's okay to it's okay to want to be alone sometimes,
you know, you know, you know, you know what I mean, Like,
you know, a lot of times we're so busy, we're
so we're so busy focusing on making everyone else happy,
(01:09:45):
you know, family, partners, whatever the case may be, right, like,
and there's nothing left for you. So you got to
start with you, you know, you know how how can
you say, how can you you know, love somebody, adoring
somebody if you don't like loving or doing yourself, you know,
don't like the person that you see when you look
in the mirror. Be the best version, Be the best
version of yourself you can be for you before you
(01:10:09):
engage with the world and someone else.
Speaker 6 (01:10:12):
I literally been telling people that all day you your first, last,
and best love is self love. Yeah, absolutely, you can't
recognize it in yourself.
Speaker 7 (01:10:18):
You'll never.
Speaker 21 (01:10:18):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're you're you'll misuse it, You'll you'll
you abuse it.
Speaker 13 (01:10:22):
You you'll be self sabotaging to it.
Speaker 16 (01:10:26):
You know.
Speaker 9 (01:10:27):
Now you're a tourist right now.
Speaker 13 (01:10:30):
May fifth single, the min Or two. Okay, that's yeah,
very much.
Speaker 7 (01:10:34):
You love that. That's holiday for Mexicans to.
Speaker 10 (01:10:39):
Anyway, What type of lover does that make you if
you're into astrology, because you.
Speaker 21 (01:10:43):
Know, I feel like it's two types of lovers. I mean,
you have givers and takers. So me, I'm I'm I'm
the type that wants to please my partner.
Speaker 13 (01:10:50):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 21 (01:10:51):
You know, I'm an O D you know what I
mean in some cases if that, if that's what's what's necessary,
you know, yeah, yeah, but I mean I feel like, yeah,
you got givers, you got to give us to take.
So you said, yeah, I'm definitely not the too manute brothers. Okay,
but not just unless you get yours off in thirty seconds.
Speaker 9 (01:11:09):
Not just I mean, I mean just a giver in
the relationship period.
Speaker 13 (01:11:16):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 9 (01:11:19):
You know, have you ever been a giver to a fault?
Speaker 8 (01:11:21):
Though?
Speaker 13 (01:11:22):
Like I think we I think we all have you
know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:11:24):
Like, you know, I think when I learned, when I
learned to not I'm kind of giving this away for too,
you know, you know Free Game, you know the book
I'm working on right now. But like as well, But
like when I when I learned not to treat the
person I'm dating like the girlfriend and not to treat
(01:11:46):
the girlfriend like a wife, because mean and what that
means is that boundaries.
Speaker 13 (01:11:53):
Are you know, you know what I mean. But these
are things you learned through therapy, you know, through helly
trial and error.
Speaker 11 (01:12:00):
You know.
Speaker 21 (01:12:00):
And yeah, so yeah, I mean, yeah, so every so
so so so do it do it to be intentional,
but do it with boundaries. Boundaries are necessary, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 9 (01:12:13):
What Zodie ex scime, would you tell people to stay
away from.
Speaker 13 (01:12:16):
What's your sign? Yeah? See, I gotta say, damn oh man,
I used to. I wouldn't.
Speaker 21 (01:12:25):
I wouldn't I would, I wouldn't hold I would because
you can't hold people just accountable to the to the astrology,
into the into the sign.
Speaker 13 (01:12:32):
Now you be jammed up.
Speaker 9 (01:12:34):
People be going down a rabbit hole.
Speaker 21 (01:12:35):
Yeah, I say, at the end of the day, it's
about you know, it's energy. It's energy, you know. And
the energy is a frequency, right and and it's reading
a wrong like you know, it's it's compatibility, it's growth,
you know. You know, any no matter what the scenario is,
you have to compromise is gonna be evolved because none
(01:12:57):
of us are perfect, none of the none, none of
us are perfect, and we're all growing in real time
hopefully you know. Good friend of mine says evolve or
repeat you know what I mean? And to add and
to add to that. The only time you should be
repeating the steps is in the process of evolution.
Speaker 6 (01:13:16):

Speaker 13 (01:13:27):
Brother, Yeah, you know what it is. You know who
I am.
Speaker 11 (01:13:29):
You know what I do.
Speaker 21 (01:13:30):
So love King of so On R and B Radio
Rahiem Devon aka mister Quiet Storm, and check it out.
This is a well permitted We're taking it all the
way Number one. You the twenty year anniversary edition right
here on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 12 (01:13:42):
Jadid I like that mourning Everybody's the j n V
Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne to God. We are the breakfast Club
lawl the ruses here as well. We got a special
guest in the building. We have the President and CEO
of Virtual Health, Dennis pulling Head. Welcome brother, thanks for
having how you feel a man?
Speaker 5 (01:14:03):
What is Virtual Health, my brother?
Speaker 4 (01:14:05):
Virtual Health is an academic health center health system in
South Jersey.
Speaker 15 (01:14:10):
So we have about four hundred locations.
Speaker 4 (01:14:12):
Taking care of the people of South Jersey and Philadelphia, Delaware.
Speaker 12 (01:14:17):
They mean taking care of people. Is this for people
that don't know? Is this older people or this people
that just have breaking down it a little bit.
Speaker 4 (01:14:24):
We provide health care for the community, so no matter
what you need, from birth to hospice, so and everything
in between, we take care of all that needs our care.
Speaker 6 (01:14:34):
I mean, that's that's needed now more than ever, especially
with the way that you know they've gotted the healthcare.
Speaker 12 (01:14:38):
That's all we're saying.
Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
You know it is, and particularly in the communities that
you guys all represent and sort of communicate with, it's
even more important to me. I don't have the audience
that you have when I say, y'all, I'm talking about
the people that tune into listening to you and so
(01:15:00):
so that community is very important to me, it's important
to our organization.
Speaker 20 (01:15:05):
I was glad to see I didn't know that you
were a black man in this position, but glad to
see it because I know a lot of what you
guys focus on is early detection.
Speaker 2 (01:15:14):
We do.
Speaker 15 (01:15:14):
You know the thing that a lot of people don't realize.
Speaker 4 (01:15:17):
Of the top five largest health systems in the country,
three of them are run by black men, and so
we have a special affinity to try and do what's right,
particularly in light of everything else that's going on in
the country.
Speaker 15 (01:15:34):
We're committed to taking care of our community.
Speaker 12 (01:15:36):
I was going to ask you what everything that's going on,
like she should kind of mention with the health industry,
what should people do?
Speaker 8 (01:15:42):
Right?
Speaker 12 (01:15:42):
So, you know, there's so many different scenarios.
Speaker 13 (01:15:44):
Right.
Speaker 12 (01:15:44):
You hear from people that they go get a surgery
in December, right now when they go back for postop
in January, that insurance is no longer covered by that hospital.
So now they have to find new doctors or not
covered at all, or they can't afford it. And they're
saying that there's surgery or whatever they have is not
necessarily insurance as a coverage, so.
Speaker 5 (01:16:05):
They have to go through the emergency room. So what
do you tell those people and.
Speaker 12 (01:16:08):
Those individuals that are going through all the things that
I've been taking.
Speaker 4 (01:16:10):
You ask a great question, you know what, I think
the number one problem in healthcare today is health literacy,
is people understanding how to navigate the system, understanding how
to take care of their bodies.
Speaker 15 (01:16:22):
I mean, you're a car guy.
Speaker 4 (01:16:24):
Most people spend more time focusing on the maintenance of
their vehicles than they do their own bodies.
Speaker 15 (01:16:30):
And so people showing up at the emergency room, which
could be you.
Speaker 4 (01:16:33):
Know, fifteen hundred, two thousand dollars visit when it's something
they may have been able to do through a virtual
care or through a primary care at forty dollars or
sixty dollars. So it's really about trying to educate people
on how to better navigate a very complex.
Speaker 6 (01:16:49):
System, and how do you ensure you're showing up with
purpose every day, not just treating it's like a business.
Speaker 4 (01:16:54):
First of all, you got to try and better understand
the people that we're taking care of and understanding what
their needs are and demonstrate that we're going to be
there for them when they need us, how they need us,
and where they need us, and being consistent. You know,
a lot she was asking about taking care of certain
population and black.
Speaker 15 (01:17:15):
Men in particular. You know, there's a lot of distrust
in healthcare and it's warranted.
Speaker 4 (01:17:19):
You know, our history has told us that it's certain
individuals don't get treated the same. And so for me,
you know, I try and create an environment where we
have cultural competencies, where people understand the needs of certain
communities and we show up and we do what's right
and not always you know, what's best for the moment.
Speaker 12 (01:17:40):
And how do they get that information you talk about
you know, people should understand more, but where can people
get that information from? And usually it's you know, it's
bottom of the ninth and they can't look for that information.
It's something's happening now, and I need to get it fixed.
Speaker 4 (01:17:54):
Yeah, because you know, if you look at it, black
women have a much higher incidence of death from cancer,
particularly breast cancer.
Speaker 15 (01:18:05):
Not because cancer shows up more in black women.
Speaker 4 (01:18:08):
It's because they get diagnosed at such a later stage
than the disease have already progressed. So how do you
prevent that from happening? You know, there's more information now
than ever. But the problem is there's also a lot
of misinformation. So finding a reliable source, finding somebody you
can trust, you know, not on TikTok, but maybe a
(01:18:30):
community physician, having a relationship with a health system like
a Virtua or many others.
Speaker 15 (01:18:37):
That's what's important. Educate yourself.
Speaker 12 (01:18:39):
I was gonna ask you know, a lot of times
people feel like hospitals in the quote unquote hood are
worse than hospitals in different areas. They feel like doctors
in the hood you'll get better treatment in different areas.
What do you say to those, because some of your
hospitals and your care centers are in the hood that
should be.
Speaker 15 (01:18:55):
As they should be. But I will tell you, unfortunately
some of that is true.
Speaker 4 (01:19:00):
Really Sometimes you know, people show up with their own biases,
and that when I'm talking about people some of the staff.
We have to educate folks, and so at Virtue what
we do unconscious biased training because there's this misnomer oftentimes
when some of us show up in emergency rooms that
(01:19:22):
were either drug seeking or our pain isn't as severe
as we make it out to be. And a lot
of that is because people have their bias about those
individuals that are coming in and then the other part
of that urban care. It is tough, you know, because
of the social economics of it. You know, when you
have a community that unfortunately may not be able to
(01:19:45):
afford insurance and rely on the government as its payer.
People don't realize that the government is the largest pairer
of health care there is. We always want to talk
about if we had a socialized medicine or one pack. Well,
right now, the government is the largest pair and unfortunately
(01:20:06):
it's through Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare pays US eighty five
cents on the dollar. Medicaid pays US roughly fifty five
cents on the dollar, and so that's at a loss.
And so it's difficult to have an ongoing you are
all business people to have an ongoing business enterprise when
your biggest payer pay you less than what.
Speaker 13 (01:20:27):
Your cost is.
Speaker 12 (01:20:29):
That's one thing I would say that I dislike about
about certain hospitals. When you go into screen and once
so oh my god, he was with.
Speaker 15 (01:20:36):
Me, held your hand. So I'm glad y'all y'all shared
that experience and I didn't have to be there.
Speaker 5 (01:20:42):
So it bathers be.
Speaker 12 (01:20:47):
I feel like when you go to the hospital, they
care more about insurance than the actual was going on,
you know what I mean, because they'd be like, YO,
put her in the chair, all right, I didn't need
you to sign this to any other and no disrespect.
My mind is not on these people. That mind is
on that person that's crying. That's that's hurt, that's sick,
that's that And that's the one thing that always baalthers me.
It's like it's so quick to throw that paper in
(01:21:09):
your in your face and to worry about And I
know we all got a job, and I know it's
a business, budd If my kid is crying on my
wife as this or somebody's that, like, I feel like
it's it's not personal enough.
Speaker 4 (01:21:22):
You know, I will agree and disagree, okay, because I
think in general, people that work in healthcare actually care.
They're there because most of us have a higher purpose.
It's not just about the money. It's not just about
the title. You absolutely absolutely want to take care of folks,
(01:21:43):
but there's a business side of it as well. And
you know we have at Virtual I have about sixteen
thousand employees that I have to be able to make
sure we have the resources to pay for their salaries
to I have the care that you want to receive.
And so should you experience that when you walk in
(01:22:05):
to be made to feel like a number or made
to feel like you know, if you don't have insurance,
then you sit over here and we'll get to you
and we get to you.
Speaker 15 (01:22:13):
No, that should not happen. Does it happen? It does, unfortunately,
and we have to.
Speaker 4 (01:22:18):
Take responsibility for that, which is why you need more
people that actually give a damn you know about all
the people that come in at Virtual And one of
the things that I sort of pride myself on is
being a champion of humanity. You know, it doesn't matter
what you look like, it doesn't matter your ability to
pay or night. What matters is we need to provide
(01:22:40):
you to care when you need it.
Speaker 12 (01:22:42):
Thank you for joining us and stopping in today. Man,
we really appreciate you. Dennis Pulling, Ladies and gentlemen, And
like he said, you can go to a virtue dot
org that's v I r t UA dot org. And
Charlamagne apologizes for using a lot of your doctors for
colonas a couple of months.
Speaker 4 (01:22:58):
You know, I'd rather have come in when he needs
to as opposed to when he app to. So I
appreciate you guys having me on, giving me an opportunity
to encourage people to invest in themselves and taking care
of themselves.
Speaker 7 (01:23:12):

Speaker 6 (05:16):
We'll laugh.
Speaker 12 (05:17):
Get it off your Chest eight hundred and five eighty
five one five one. It's the Breakfast Club in the morning,
wake up, wake up wall ask.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Your time to get it off your chest?
Speaker 12 (05:28):
Really your man or blessed, we want to hear from
you on the breakfast gloves. Hello, who is hello?
Speaker 16 (05:36):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (05:36):
What's your name?
Speaker 17 (05:37):
Bright?
Speaker 12 (05:38):
We'll fall the jersey will jersey.
Speaker 18 (05:41):
Briefly, I just want to highlight the fact that it's
like what's going through now. And I don't know if
you guys or know what a rush act is is
when you know, the doctor shoes you a picture or
something and you give your interpretation of it and then
it is what you see. But now in real life,
it's like certain things that used to be cutting dry.
You see a square, it's a square. See a circle.
(06:02):
It's a certacause there's no argument about that. But we're
in the player at the country now that we can
look at the same exact thing and something is cut
and dry as murder and justify it or look at
it totally different. You have people that can look at
what happened in Minnesota to most people who're like, Okay.
Speaker 19 (06:19):
That was wrong.
Speaker 18 (06:20):
But then there's other people that go look at the
same exact situation and justify it. And then some of
those same people will look at what happened on January sixth,
where most people will look at it like Nope, that
was wrong what those people did, and there's those people
that would justify it. And So if we're at a
point in this country where we can't look at things
that are basically absolute and not have the same opinion
(06:44):
on this is right and this is wrong, but we
all see that with the same vision, we're in trouble.
If we can't start at a faiseline of what decency
is and what right is right and wrong is, then
everything else is totally off the table.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
You're right, they treat and murdered away, n treat getting
caught cheating. You know what I'm saying, but.
Speaker 18 (07:03):
You should be able to the things that you could
justify your opinion.
Speaker 11 (07:08):
What a fact that?
Speaker 18 (07:09):
Like, you know Eddie Murphy had that joke. You wanna
believe me or your lion I but she knows to
say whatever she wants to say. We know what we.
Speaker 7 (07:18):
Saw and that's what it should be about. That.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Man, you are so accurate. That's exactly what it should
be about.
Speaker 12 (07:23):
Right.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
Right is right and wrong is wrong. You know what
I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Like if we're saying, you got these people out here
that got a job to do with your the ice agents, Okay,
do their job.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
Do I want people impeding them doing their job? No?
But I don't don't want them killing folks either.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Get it off your chest.
Speaker 12 (07:37):
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 morning. Everybody's dj n V. Just hilarious,

her girlfriend.

like big like notorious credib a big study energy.
Speaker 5 (08:05):

Speaker 7 (08:07):

Speaker 5 (08:09):
She's a big d energy. Yeah, yeah, I give you
say she had big energy, is.
Speaker 12 (08:13):

Speaker 5 (08:14):

Speaker 6 (08:16):

that sound.
Speaker 7 (08:21):
Like somebody getting electrictated.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Thing might as well say damn that you went to
to Oh my god, you always got to go to Yeah,
play too much? Right, listen to the call.
Speaker 8 (08:35):
So I have a girlfriend I've been with for a
year and alf.
Speaker 14 (08:39):
We lived together.
Speaker 18 (08:40):
We got a cat.
Speaker 12 (08:40):
You know, real life acts in the house talk to us.
Speaker 8 (08:46):
So she's a nurse. She's telling me. A few months
ago she started getting close with some girl at work.
The girl is her work wife. I tell her to
knit it in the bus.
Speaker 16 (08:56):
She don't do it.
Speaker 8 (08:57):
Then I go through her phone on Chris this day
I see her texting with the girl, and the girl's
talking like what you wearing? I can't wait to see
you type Today we had a big fight. She turned
her location off and she left the Cris. I drove
her through her earbos Wow, she has the Shorty's house.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
Yo, damn crazy, hould up to the PRIs.
Speaker 8 (09:23):
I come outside, she said, you in the wrong place.
Speaker 19 (09:26):
I'm not here.
Speaker 11 (09:27):
I knock on the front door.
Speaker 8 (09:30):
I'm not.
Speaker 18 (09:31):
They're gonna call the top and I'm like, no, y'all
you know alright.
Speaker 12 (09:34):
So we're asking eight hundred five eight five one oh
five one? Do you mind if your significant other has
a house spots in the house, work husband.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Now I want the record to show what a normal
show would have just said, do you mind if your
significant other has a workwife or work husband? Actually the
stud lesbian aspect of it has nothing to do with
any of this, but that's what a conversation, nothing.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
To do with it.
Speaker 12 (09:59):
But you really like that's an interesting story to an
interesting story. But that's where the call came from. She
said she doesn't want her wife to have her girlfriend.
Speaker 13 (10:07):
I have that.
Speaker 12 (10:08):
Let's start with you, would you mind if Chris.
Speaker 10 (10:10):
Had a work wife? Absolutely would would mind? Like, I
don't think the label is going too far when you
say wife and husband. Why you just can't have a
work friend, you know what I'm saying, or a coworker
that you're really cool with Like why does it have
to be why does.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
The term have to be work wife?
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Work husband?
Speaker 9 (10:27):
I don't think it's appropriate.
Speaker 10 (10:29):
I don't like it sometimes now now, a lot of
times it is platonic, you know what I mean.
Speaker 9 (10:32):
But a lot of times it's not right. So and
you never know.
Speaker 12 (10:37):
I want you either. We all friends, Yeah, yeah, like nah.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Yeah, I don't like it. I don't like the term.
Speaker 6 (10:45):
Like like I said, like, you shouldn't be calling nobody
else your husband. You shouldn't be calling nobody else your wife.
You know, those are like sacred titles, you know what
I mean. Those are titles that you earn, and you
know you can just be calling nobody your work husband wife.
And to me, it's like it's applies other connotations, you
know what I'm saying, Like why does that gotta be
your work husband a work wife?
Speaker 7 (11:05):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (11:06):
I don't like that. I don't like the term.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
That was funny me and m me do it. Yeah,
like that's my work husband. But that's a joke exactly.
Speaker 10 (11:14):
Wives know each you know, you'll know too much.
Speaker 12 (11:18):
He played for me outside we were outside of work.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
He's still playing.
Speaker 12 (11:21):
I don't want to play.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
Whatever, because the streets. Know the streets, not the streets
the screech know you my work bottom. You're actually my
work bottom, bitch.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
That's the way I look at what.
Speaker 13 (11:34):
You go to Hell.
Speaker 11 (11:36):
From Brooklyn.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
From Brooklyn, talk to jah.
Speaker 12 (11:39):
What's your thoughts going on?
Speaker 11 (11:41):
My thoughts ain't no work wives, ain't no work husbands.
I mean, because you know, soon as should get a
little attitude with me, you should go to work, talk
about you know all he not doing me right? Next thing,
you know, a shoulder to cry on, become a meet with.
Speaker 9 (11:53):
You, right, Damn, you're right.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
And I ain't gonna front man. Something something happened on
my algorithm one day. Well, I clicked on one video
and then I just went down a whole thing of
videos whereas these girls talking about this is how you
take care of your friend, and it's like girls giving
guys hell. Now, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 11 (12:11):
It's like, you just gotta work from home with me.
Matter of fact, amazon't got to leave the package on
the steps. Don't even ring the bell.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Damn, Hello, who's this hey?
Speaker 8 (12:23):
No?
Speaker 11 (12:23):
No at off towards man, No.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
No, what's up? Talk to us? What's your doings?
Speaker 13 (12:28):
Hey?
Speaker 17 (12:28):
Man, Good morning to y'all.
Speaker 11 (12:29):
Man, I listened to yall live this morning.
Speaker 14 (12:31):
I want to start that out.
Speaker 19 (12:32):
Thank you brother, Yeah sir, but yeah, I think.
Speaker 17 (12:35):
These days now, being in a relationship, when you with
a person and they're at a at a job site
and they went they see this work for nine, ten,
twelve hours out of the day, you know, they tend
to go on lunch state and you know that's that's
gonna happen. And I think, you know you just gotta
either accept it or leave it, because really.
Speaker 11 (12:55):
That's what goes on.
Speaker 12 (12:56):
Do you have a work white bro?
Speaker 17 (12:58):
No, I try to trus brother, I just of my
own business pool woolexpress.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Man, you gotta you gotta work a lot lizard.
Speaker 5 (13:07):
No, No, that is that one restop on the route
you going?
Speaker 7 (13:16):
You gotta lead.
Speaker 9 (13:17):
That man's a dope.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Hello, what's up brother?
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Talk to us? What you're doing?
Speaker 14 (13:26):
A good morning? First of all, I love all of
y'alls everything y'all do. I think y'all are amazing.
Speaker 7 (13:31):
Thank you, Thank you. We appreciate you, man, Thank you.
Speaker 14 (13:34):
Another thing, I think the girl was insane for telling
her girlfriend she got a work wife. I think that
you gotta keep that to yourself. I've had plenty of
work wives that didn't lead to nothing at all. But
I ain't, like I told my girldad like, I just
kept it to me. Were just getting coffee and and
doing stuff like that. We ain't doing nothing crazy.
Speaker 10 (13:53):
Now, that's the thing that the reason why I thought
it was it wasn't crazy that she told her girlfriend
that she had a work wife. What made it crazy
is that you really with your work wife, like y'all
getting intimate, y'all, y'all flirting and dealing with each other.
She went in the phone, saw messages, and she cheats.
She was cheating on her girlfriend with her work wife.
That's where it went wrong.
Speaker 15 (14:09):
You got crazy.
Speaker 14 (14:10):
That's a whole nother conversation. Specifically, Hey, you came to yourself.
You always home for that?
Speaker 12 (14:18):
I can't now, dion answer answer answer the railway right.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
Have you ever flirted with your work wife?
Speaker 14 (14:26):
Of course that's my work wife.
Speaker 16 (14:27):
But happen.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
No, But see, you shouldn't be flirting. You know your
wife would not allow you to be flirting.
Speaker 6 (14:33):
Would you tell your wife you was flirting with your
work wife? That you don't listen, My my rule is
you don't do nothing. You can't tell your wife.
Speaker 15 (14:45):
That's right.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
You can't tell your wife about it. You know you
ain't got no.
Speaker 12 (14:47):
Business doing it now if you're just joining us. This
conversation actually came from a woman who called yesterday during
Get It off your Chest. Let's listen to the call.
Speaker 8 (14:56):
Oh, I have a girlfriend I've been with for a
year and a half, lives together, we got a cat.

Speaker 8 (15:07):
So she's a nurse, She's telling me. A few months
ago she started getting close with some girl at work.
The girl is her work wife. I tell her to
nip it in the bus. She don't do it. Then
I go through her phone on Christmas Day. I see
her texting with the girl, and the girl's talking like
what you wearing? I can't wait to see you type today.
(15:29):
We had a big fight. She turned her location off
and she left the crib. I drive her through her
ear pods. My dude, wow, she has the shorty's.

on drive, I was taking him the word and at
the same time I was taking him the word, uh
the work wife. She got a husband too, but I
didn't know this at the time because she just started.
So when I was leaving, I see her, I see
her husband like mean up in the mess out of
my mind. So I wanted to be like, what's up?
(17:18):
Why are you looking at him like that? Like, because
like it was something that didn't sit right with me.
So I made a mental note of this. So the
next time I went, it was she wasn't with her husband,
she was by herself, so she was looking at me
my car mostue I got real stark shit. So you
can't see in there. I can see her, she can't
(17:39):
see me. So she's just looking ugly at heil that.
Speaker 8 (17:42):
I'm like, damn, sup.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Oh no, what kind of call do you have?
Speaker 5 (17:45):
First of all, what kind of call you?
Speaker 11 (17:49):
I'm not good.
Speaker 18 (17:49):
It's a BMW was attended with.

Okay, okay, God you wanted to make sure it wasn't
the one.
Speaker 12 (18:06):
Series dad go So uh okay.
Speaker 19 (18:08):
So long story short for the way she looked at me,
I said, oh, let's I said. I said, let me
go through this phone, because I go through the phone
like maybe every six or seven months, depending on how
I feel like.
Speaker 11 (18:20):
I just go through the phone.
Speaker 19 (18:21):
I normally don't be finding nothing, but so I go
right to her. It's just the same. I called it
the same day only thing I met because I want
to see how farthers gon go, because I feel like
I stopped it because I crashed out light way. Because
when I went through the phone and went to their message,
this person was like regular little work stuff. So then
(18:42):
I started seeing the most he kind of corny, so
I know that's this way. I flirted so like, but
he talked a lot, so uh so she gonna send
a picture, she said, three pictures and they and they
was like sexy pictures. But she weak. She she she
they would say some sex. She pictured something about some
eyes a man contact.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
Ma'am man, manam man, I need to tell you something
that they don't tell you at dinner. Stop because well
you're going too long. Could you get to the point please,
you said.
Speaker 19 (19:18):
Okay, okay, I tried to. She don't worked there no more.
I beat him on his sleep because him to do this.
I told him to do this the same what if
he tried to be sneaking, ain't tell me like, oh
he ain't tell me you know what I caught. If
he would have been like, oh man, now she's buying back.
Speaker 18 (19:36):
On what you told me to do.
Speaker 19 (19:38):
The only reason I told him to work with her
so she can work for him, and he so he.
Speaker 11 (19:43):
Can still be I don't know.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
I don't like any of this. You opened up the door,
you know what I mean? And I don't know why
you opened up Pandora's box like that. I do not
know why you did that. She said something, but you
gonna beat him up for telling him to do something that.
Speaker 12 (19:59):
Fall and you beat him up? What size was the girl?
Speaker 19 (20:02):
She man, I'm old enough to be her mam ma
and I and that's her thing? She like, ain't you fifty?
But if we put that next to each other, you
will be trying to figure out who's fifty? Like she
you know, she's start. My thing is that he didn't
tell me what she did, Like I acpect everything that
she did that she was going to do okay, But
(20:24):
I had to I had to go through the phone
and find and he that he was lying about it.
That He's like, no, like, what what did you lying for? I?
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Because you just as messy to you called you caused
a lot of this mess. You told that man to
flirt with that woman and there's no limit to flirting.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Did you say did you did you give him a limit?
Speaker 19 (20:42):
Right? But he was supposed to tell. Yeah, the limit
was like if she biting back, you let me know,
like and then but he didn't. And then when I
asked him, like, I tried to wake him up, but
he I tried to wake him up, but he trying
to fake sleep when I had that phone in this space.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Yeah, you are so messy, so messy, I mean juicy,

Law La roses here as well, and we got a
special guest in the building. We have Sean welcome.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Brother, good morning, good morning.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
How you feeling.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
I am cold, cold, cold man. No, I am believing.
And this is why when I was here the last time,
I was talking about how much belieze is paradise and
this really underpins why I believe it's paradise.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
But go where you cared from.
Speaker 12 (22:11):
Did you get them cold Brooklyn days and nights and
waiting for the bus?
Speaker 5 (22:15):
And this.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Is this is beyond brick. Nothing is crazy. Nothing existed
when I was in Brooklyn at this level.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
It's seven degrees shan.
Speaker 12 (22:30):
You went to school in snow where now if it
is cancel school snowing.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
But I don't remember being this brick. Maybe you know
there's a lot of trauma, so I've you know, buried
some of those memories, but I don't remember being this cold.
Speaker 12 (22:45):
Well, let's start off with saying congratulations. You're about to
celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of the Shine album, and
you also have the twenty fifth anniversary world tour, with
New York being the first stop.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
That's right, that's right. The Shine came out September twenty six,
two thousand, so we're in the year of the celebration.
It was this September twenty sixth that passed, right. But
I was working out my work status here because the
(23:18):
last time I was here, I was here as the
leader of the opposition if I recalled. So I was
here as a diplomat but then I had to transition,
you know, as a worker, so I wasn't able to
come earlier to start the tour. But you know, we
started all of that out and yeah, so now we're
gonna perform and celebrate the album, you know, which was
(23:41):
a very special album to me, very special album to
a lot of people throughout the United States and throughout
the world. You know. I was at the the Africa
Awards in Los Angeles over the weekend, so African American
Film Critics Award, and so Ryan Kugler, who obviously everybody
(24:02):
knows who that is, broke the records for most Oscar
nominations for sinners, so he was getting a bunch of awards,
and so when I saw him, he was like, yo,
you know, we grew up to your music and he's
from Oakland. But that just shows you the impact that
the Shine album had. And I never got a chance
(24:22):
to really, you know, even appreciate my career because that
album came out September twenty six, two thousand and by
March I was in Captivity, so like five months.
Speaker 12 (24:38):
You know, that's I would love you to discuss, right, So, yeah,
of course that album came out and it was a
huge album.
Speaker 8 (24:44):
Right.
Speaker 12 (24:44):
You had Bad Boys, This Gangster Body and Shine. Those
are the singles off that Yeah album.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Then you had songs like the Commission. You had songs
like N Word going. I would kind of change that chorus,
but like Pharrell made that record, that's like one of
my favorite record because when you hear me perform that
at Kingstadar on May second, it's gonna be a movie.
But records on the album.
Speaker 12 (25:07):
My question is you you were huge back then, right,
and and you got it locked up. You talked about
it last time. You had the amount of time you
spent and when you came out, you changed a lot, right.
You talked about your change, and you know, you go
to Jerusalem and you're reading the Taurrah and then you're
getting into politics, right, and then you became the total
opposite in my opinion of who you were as a
(25:29):
young man.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Right.
Speaker 12 (25:30):
At one time you were talking gangster ish and shooting
and blowing people's heads off. And you talk about stories
of you carrying guns, and I've heard stories about you
and the Bad Boys office carrying guns and pulling out
all types of nines and blocks and all types of stuff. Right,
And you can't you changed, totally change. You became a
gentleman that was speaking positivity, uh trying to instead of
(25:52):
uh promote crime, you were against it. You would you
were talking community, trying to get.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
Kids off the streets.
Speaker 12 (25:59):
But the lyrics back then twenty five years ago was
still the lyrics twenty five years ago. So as Shine
to change, gentlemen, how do you perform those records?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I think you got to listen to those lyrics. If
you listen to the America, I'm only what you made me, young,
black crazy, Please save me. I'm dying inside in case
you see it in my eyes. Maybe if you would
teach me how to do a craft or trade. I
(26:28):
come off the corner, stop serving at yay, build schools
instead of prison. I stop living the way that I'm living.
That's poetry. That's me crying out for help. That applies
today to the NBA Young Boys, the same way it
applied to Shine back then. If you listen to you
know what you're gonna do when it hit the fan.
(26:51):
That's integrity. That's character. That's me talking about. You know,
I'm telling my life story and saying that I abide
by certain codes and I get my friends in trouble
and you know, being honest to who I am and
trying to survive these streets. I don't think my album
(27:12):
or my raps I would say. I know, we're never
Quentin Tarantino or you know, violent rap. I was talking
about my life. I was giving you a dissertation as
to what I was going through. And if you listen
carefully enough, I was always saying, this is not what
(27:34):
I want to do. I would like to escape this.
But when you talk about the performance, people like Ryan
Coogler and other people, regular people grew up to my music,
and so it's a celebration of that. You know, maybe
when I'm performing there might be a few words that
you know, I let the audience say and I wouldn't say.
(27:56):
But it's a celebration of the music of the evil
and art is not to be condemned, right, But it's
it's definitely not as much as what you're saying. If
you listen to those those lyrics, it's really telling the
story of uh, you know, eighteen year old, nineteen year
old that's trying to navigate the muddy waters of you know,
(28:19):
what the system created. That's how I remember And if
you go lyrics for lyrics, you'll find a lot of
you know, please help me. This is not what I
really want to do, but this is what I'm doing.
I gotta defend myself, you know, I gotta protect myself.
That that was the energy that I was given.
Speaker 12 (28:35):
And I'm not I'm not judging. Don't think I'm judging
because I grew up to this music. I play his music,
I DJ his music. But it's always interesting when when
I have somebody like yourself or even you know, Mace,
because Mace was probably one of the first one that
we seen do it. Where Mace is you know, talking,
you know, bullets hit off the car bling bling ding
ding whatever, and then when he comes out as a
pastor and then he comes back as a rap, it's like, well,
(28:57):
can he do those lyrics?
Speaker 13 (28:59):
Right?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:59):
And it's not a judge.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
It's that when people see people change, they're for it.
They agree with it, all right. I agree with the
change because some people don't have the balls to do it.
Some people don't have the haven't evolved to do it.
But then when they do it, it's like, that's a
good thing. I understand why he did it. Where he's
going with it. But then when it goes back to
the rap and it's like, well, how do you go
back and forth? And I'm like, when I hear rapers
(29:22):
like you know, uh yeah, hope you die slow death.
As I coke test see the Lord's protests. Can't put
your weak rap is with your gay ass raps running
around talking this and that. I'm like, how does shine
do that? You know what I mean. But then on
the other side, like please to my friends and believes.
You know, I'm trying to get the kids like I
just and I'm not judging.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
I'm just as but I think I think creativity. We
were talking about that in the green room. Creativity is
not as simple as you know. You just read it.
That's a that's a poem. That's a work of art
that people love, and this is a celebration of that.
(30:03):
And even in my evolved state, I still help artists
and belieze and I still support artists, you know, whether
it's offset Qwavo or a Pusher Ta or all these
young kids that I see and I run into them
and we talk and I inspire them. I'm not here
to tell them, you know, well you shouldn't rap like
(30:23):
this or you should rap like that. So, you know,
my creative expressions should be studied in Harvard, should be
in the museum they're trying in history. So it's not
something that I'm ashamed of. That was a young shine,
That's how he felt, that's what he was going through,
and he expressed himself. And so celebrating that expression. This
is not for you know, a twelve year old kid
(30:45):
or thirteen year old kid to come to my concert.
You know, these are adults that are going to be
in the room celebrating that body of work. Now, if
you're asking me about my new album, that's not what
I'm going to be saying.
Speaker 12 (30:58):
And I would hope not you're not, but but but.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
I think I think I think it would be it
would be very unfair to deprive uh, you know, people
that love that body of work correct from that celebration.
And as I said, there's a way for me to
do it, right, don't. I don't. I don't necessarily need to.
You know, there's there's crowd participation, right, so I could
(31:22):
you know who want to.
Speaker 12 (31:26):
You know what I mean, what type of what type
of brothers?
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Thank you?
Speaker 7 (31:37):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Laurden.
Speaker 20 (31:40):
I mean, envy has a point though, I mean, but
I think you probably got a lot of this even
before this tour when you I mean just as a
politician now.
Speaker 12 (31:48):
But people performed since we've seen them, right, I think,
So the great thing.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Is to wait and see what is Sean gonna do?
Is he gonna say the album in a.
Speaker 12 (32:04):
Can't can? I?
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Hold on?
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Hold on, hold on, my good hold on?
Speaker 5 (32:11):
Who did it?
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Who was the first one to do it? With the fitted,
fitted low going in the court with the Gucci suit,
with the time come on, come on, Hevy, come on
heavy right?
Speaker 12 (32:22):
What changed your mind? I think last time you were
up here, you were like you weren't thinking about performing,
and you said the only time that you think you
would perform is if it was like a Grammys or
a BT and they were showing you love, and that
you weren't interested in performing. What changed your mind?
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I mean, twenty five years is that's a milestone. People
don't really get to celebrate a twenty fifth anniversary and
still be relevant twenty five years later. And also I'm
no longer in the House of Representatives, so my focus
shifted somewhat. I'm still focused on becoming the next Prime
(33:00):
Minister of Belize. At some point I had a twenty
thirty agenda and some way ahead a schedule on that.
I still focus on helping the people in Mesopotamia, which
is a constituency I used to represent. But when I
lost my seat, you know, I had a few things
that I've been delaying due to being in the legislator.
(33:23):
So now I'm involved in real estate development for tourism
and Belieze, I get to finish my memoir, God bless you.
I have film projects to do, Like I have a
lot to do that I couldn't do because I was
in the legislator, and I'm one of those people that's
singular obsessed with whatever it is I am doing, and
(33:46):
I just didn't feel comfortable focusing much on the creative
as I did when I was in the legislator. Now
I'm not, so I have a couple of years before
the next election to do this. And this is not random.
It's my twenty fifth anniversary. I'm not gonna be able
to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary ever again. So it's
a great way to celebrate twenty five years of Shine,
(34:10):
the first album, and to create new music.
Speaker 12 (34:12):
And I think it's dope because I mean, I'm from
New York, so I remember the impact that record had
on New York. But I also feel a little bad
for you as well, right, And the reason I say
that is when that album came out, I don't think
you ever got a chance to enjoy it because at
that same time, you were on court and you never
got a chance to go to talk because you went
you got locked up, So you never got a chance
(34:34):
to enjoy the fruits of your labor during that time.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
October November, December, pick jewelry, January, ready for trial February, convicted,
March sixteenth. So I think not just me, but the
people that love the music never got the chance to
celebrate it. So this is really a celebration, you know.
(34:59):
And we're going to bring some special guests to help
me celebrate. From the hip hop world, from the danceholl world.
It's gonna be incredible.
Speaker 12 (35:07):
So what do you say people just want the last
question on it? What do you say to people that say, Sean,
is this about the money?
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Money?
Speaker 8 (35:17):
Nah?
Speaker 2 (35:18):
That that's that's irrelevant. That's not a you don't you
don't take these steps in life just uh to get
a check. I've been good. I spent millions of dollars
in believe in politics, and that's how I became the
leader of the opposition. Inconsequential, you know, you just got
(35:41):
to do things, which is in line with what I
had said to you. It would have to be something special,
and so this is specially twenty fifth anniversary is special.
The albums that I'm going to come out with are attached.
I think if you go back to that interview, I
mentioned it that I would do albums that were attached
to the film projects. So I never put out the
(36:04):
album for the Honorable Shine documentary, So that's going to
be especially curated album. Then I have the TV series,
the Bio TV series about my life that's another album.
Then we have the motion picture that's the final album.
And then I would by that time be ready for
(36:25):
the elections. So you know, what should I do? Should
I just sit around for three years and not do
anything like what you mentioned? Is the furthest thing from
my mind is just how do I spend my time?
And what have I been neglecting? What have I not
been doing that I could do? You know, when you
think about all that I've been through politically, been through
(36:50):
a lot I'm writing a book on that. You know,
there was a coup in my party. You know, they
try to overthrow throw me. They broke all types of laws.
I had to take them to court. It was that
was a movie within itself. And so I lost my
seat because I took all that I had and gave
(37:10):
it to my colleagues. Because I was a leader, so
I took and I took what I thought was enough
for myself. But I made sure because in Belize parliamentary
system of governance, you can't become prime minister unless you
have a majority of the seats in the House of Representatives,
(37:30):
and as the leader, you're responsible for getting everyone to sixteen.
So we need sixteen seats. So I made a promise.
I'm their leader. We're in the battlefield. It's bad, we're
all about to go down, but I'm not gonna, you know,
turn around and be like, all right, well, let's get
in the tank, and you know they gonna figure it out.
I made sure everybody had tanks, and I made sure
(37:52):
everyone was good. So that was a lot. So now
as I catch my breath and I think about, you know,
what to do next, I'm grateful for my own sanity
and for my you know, my my emotional stability, spirituality,
that I have something to do, which is incredible. To
(38:14):
be able to celebrate my twenty fifth anniversary, to make
new projects, to being you know, to be able to
go to California and go to doctor Dre's house and
and you know, to go in the studio and for
him to play beats for me. That's that's a blessing.
That's a miracle. Like a lot of people can't go
to California and get in front of Dred.
Speaker 5 (38:38):
So yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
So so like that's where I'm at with with with
my art and what I'm doing now in life. And
as I said, the projects to the real estate projects,
you know, being able to work with somebody like Don Pooh,
you know, Robert Cummins, you know Brooklyn Chophouse, to open
a Brooklyn chop house and believe with a resort. Uh
you know, like so so so I have a lot
(39:01):
of blessings, very fortunate, and I never shied away from
who I was as an entertainer. I reject the idea that,
oh well, if you're an entertainer, just be an entertainer,
Just be be an athlete. You know, you shouldn't be
involved in politics. I'm not gonna get involved in American politics.
Speaker 15 (39:21):
That's y'all.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
That's y'all's problem or or or whatever it is. But
I just believe that hip hop is so diverse and
we could do anything. You know, we were or are we?
Fashion designers, you know, movie producers, restaurants, hoteliers, like that's
(39:43):
just that's always.
Speaker 9 (39:43):
Been a hip hop speaking of our problem? Or do
you ask citizenship in the US? Or is that you
ain't even right about it?
Speaker 5 (39:51):
No more?
Speaker 2 (39:51):
I'm I'm oh one worker, so exhordinary ability worker. So
I have a visa as an old one extraordinary ability
working so I could live and work in the United States.
Speaker 20 (40:06):
What would you say to people and I've seen you
talk about, you know, your relationship lack they're of a Diddy,
But what would you say to people who feel like
you're finally getting kind of like, I mean, the support
that a lot of people didn't give you back when
the child was happening because Diddy was like the mega superstar.
But now people see him in a different light, so
people are more kind of open to hearing anything that
(40:28):
doesn't make him like this big, mega perfect person.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Well, did He's not really interrelated with anything that I'm
doing right now. I think that I've been able to
build my legacy, and I've always had the support of
the hip hop community. There was a point where, like
(40:52):
the hip hop community, you remember, it kind of hated
Diddy when I went away, and they didn't want anything
to do with him. But you know, being the Charlottean,
the very convincing person that he is, he knows how
to get everybody, you know, back in line. But I've
always had support, you know, throughout my incarceration. You know,
(41:15):
jay Z was coming to Rikers Island on the Mayback.
You know when God he God blessed his soul, was
at the height of his power and murdered Ink. They
all came up there to try to sign me nods.
Uh you know Doctor Dre, I was just talking, uh
to my guy Monie Helly, who was managing Keisha, Cole
(41:38):
Future and a bunch of you know superstars. But hey,
yeah money, he say yeah, man so he when he
first discovered Keisha, it was between him and Doctor Dre
because Doctor Dre had this new kid called the Game,
and they wanted a verse from Shine and Manny, who
(42:01):
I came up with Roll Flatbush and my guy. We
started in the cradle. He wanted the record for his artists,
but everybody wanted to Shine record, but it only could
be one, and I gave it to Manny because of
our brotherhood, So I wouldn't say that. You know, people
people always embrace Shined in When I came out, Remember
(42:24):
I did, I did. I did a deal while I
was away, went number one again despite remember and and
you know I did the I don't know if Double
XL people remember Double XL the death before the sign
of cover and the most hip hop most wanted cover.
And I was always telling people who did he was
(42:46):
the irony, I guess, is just that, well, now you
know every everything had everything, well everything has collapsed and
every and the curtain has been removed. And I was like,
it's you know, irrefutable for most peop people, everything that
I said back then, But then for me it's like
I'm gone. It's like, you know, for real, and the clips,
(43:08):
you know, respect to them on that great album where
you know that record where he says I'm so so
far gone, like I'm you know, as soon as they wanted.
I don't want to know more, I'm somewhere else, So
it's like for me, I'm not I'm not there.
Speaker 12 (43:22):
That was rumored that they asked you to, uh be
part of the Diddy doc You know.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
I saw I saw Alex that directed the film.
Speaker 5 (43:32):
That's her name the record.
Speaker 20 (43:34):
Yeah, yeah, I know it's Alex because I remember I
hit you and I'm like, hey, what happened?
Speaker 2 (43:40):
And I told you I'm coming out with a new
album and you ain't saying that. Listen. She wants to
scoop right, So I'm like, listen, you know I'm coming
out with a new album, new to all that. I'm
thinking she gonna go back. Well listen, Sean said he
working on a new album, but he gonna, you know,
pop up on no. I wanted you to say that.
Speaker 9 (44:01):
I didn't know.
Speaker 20 (44:02):
I thought you were saying that like when the time
is right.
Speaker 7 (44:04):
I didn't know you wanted me to.
Speaker 2 (44:06):
I thought, you know, you gotta be specific with me.
Speaker 12 (44:09):
You got so did they reach out?
Speaker 2 (44:11):
But she said she did. But I tell you that,
I tell you honestly, I'm so focused on me and
Believe and all the great things that are before me. Uh.
I didn't see the documentary, but I heard I heard
that it's it's great as powerful as this award winning worthy.
(44:33):
I you know, they I heard I was in the
documentary even though I didn't speak, but obviously they told
the truth about what I've been saying. So nothing that
I'm saying is different than what I've said before. But
I didn't watch it because I I just that's my trauma.
So so without getting into what he did to Cassie
(45:00):
and what he did to all the other people that
have accused him, and I see that, like there's some
people that saying, oh, well, you know, well Cassie, Cassie
wanted it up. Well, yeah, that's what she signed up for.
You know, we all can't be wrong, right, So it's like,
I know what he did to me as far as
(45:22):
sending me to prison. He was one of the most
powerful people in the world, and he used his money
and his power to make sure that witnesses lied. People
went in there. Not to say, listen, Sean was defending
did he because we I owned up to having the weapon.
There was no dispute to that, but it was a
(45:43):
matter of self defense, and he had the power to
make sure that if people went in there, they told
the truth. And Sean was defending all of us. He
didn't do that. He said listen, somebody gotta go down.
And he wasn't a gentleman. He didn't say listen, listen,
just cop out or this is how we're gonna do it.
(46:04):
I'm gonna make sure family good for life, You good
for life, but we need you to take this hit. No,
it was like you're gonna take the hit because the
DA was offered me thirteen years, so I couldn't even
get a reasonable plea, and then I think the judge
offered me like seven years. But I say all that
to say, uh, what he did to me, I would
(46:26):
never do to another human being. Worst thing in the
world to send somebody to prison. So I could imagine
all these other things that people are saying. But his
celebrity is so loud, was so loud, and you can
still see it creeping in sometimes because you see people
come out and start attacking the victims. It was the
(46:46):
same thing that kind of happened to me, where after
a certain point people are like, shut up, we don't
want to hear about that. You know, let's party, let's
drink Sarah. So I don't want to. I don't want to.
I don't even want to talk about that. But I
respect my responsibility to you, to the audience, to you know,
when you text me, I told you want to come
(47:07):
up here, you can ask me.
Speaker 20 (47:08):
That's why I didn't mention anything, because I felt like
it was unfair to bring you into that conversation because
we're reported on Dating is documentary and it's like, oh, well,
shine in new music. So when you said you were
willing to come and talk, I was like, all right,
I make sure it happened so that you can have
your own conversation about good You're.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Good, like like.
Speaker 12 (47:25):
She was great, DM me talk about my content, damn it,
talk about my damn it.
Speaker 2 (47:30):
We're talking about listen, not that not that you you
going back on tour for the money.
Speaker 19 (47:36):
Right even really.
Speaker 2 (47:41):
People think, so, you know, why would somebody think that.
It's not like I'm out here stunting. I'm like, listen,
I take the tray like I'm a regular guy. Like
it's not like I think if people, it's not like
I'm fronting, like I'm out here in front like I
got a hundred millions.
Speaker 7 (47:55):
And you heard something.
Speaker 12 (47:56):
The first thing that people say is, well, why did
they come back.
Speaker 2 (47:59):
You know, especially I never got it said the last time.
Speaker 12 (48:01):
I said, he was like, I don't want to because.
Speaker 2 (48:03):
I was in the legislator. I was in the legislator.
No no, no no, But I'm still Obama who got
I got the I got the prolo crust on, but
I still.
Speaker 7 (48:13):
Got you know what I mean?
Speaker 12 (48:16):
Alright, shut up, it's the breakfast clu, good morning.
Speaker 7 (48:20):
Trying to beat donkey today?
Speaker 8 (48:21):
No more.
Speaker 5 (48:21):
They should be embarrassed by what they already did.
Speaker 7 (48:23):
I'm not making these people do these days.
Speaker 9 (48:25):
Called donkey of the day, and it really caught me
off guard.
Speaker 10 (48:28):
Damn Charlamagne, who got the donkey out of the day
to day?
Speaker 6 (48:33):
Well, jess Hilarian's donkey today goes to a real estate
agent named Stephanie Lovins. And I'm gonna let you know
it right now. The mayonnaise is heavy on this story. Okay,
Stephanie used to work for Century twenty one. We all
know what Century twenty one is, correct, Yes, big real
estate company. Stephanie was a real estate agent there, but
she isn't anymore.
Speaker 7 (48:50):
She got fired.
Speaker 6 (48:51):
Okay, she got fired because Stephanie was dining at a
Mexican restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. Salute that everybody who listens
to us on one oh six point seven to beat
in Columbus, Ohio dropping the clues bombs for one of
sixty seven eight in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you for listening
to the world's most dangerous morning show. Now, before I
tell you about Stephanie, I just need to remind you
that since the start of President Trump's second term, thousands
(49:14):
of undocumented migrants have been getting arrested and deported.
Speaker 5 (49:18):
We know this, Okay, Tom Holman.
Speaker 6 (49:20):
And Ice Ice baby not playing and there are a
lot of undocumented migrants in this country who are scared
to death. Okay, Ice has asked me to go on
a couple of ride alongs. There is a part of
me that wants to see for myself what is happening,
how it's happening, so I can properly report on it.
But let's just stick to the story. I just needed
to remind you of what's going on in this country
to give the proper context to this story.
Speaker 7 (49:40):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (49:41):
Stephanie Lovin's was dining at a restaurant called Cazula's Mexican Cantina,
and she had a waiter named Ricardo. Now Ricardo is
a US citizen, But who cares about that minor detail
at a time like this? Okay, Stephanie got upset with Ricardo,
and she did this. Let's go to eighty six News
for report.
Speaker 3 (49:59):
Police customers head into Casuela's Mexican Cantina on.
Speaker 5 (50:02):
East broad Street.
Speaker 3 (50:04):
Just days after this photo was snapped of a receipt
a customer left behind Sunday that includes no tip and
a hateful message reading you suck.
Speaker 5 (50:13):
I hope Trump deports you.
Speaker 6 (50:15):
I think it's despicable.
Speaker 12 (50:17):
You know that's not who America is.
Speaker 9 (50:19):
You know we're all immigrants.
Speaker 3 (50:21):
Just hours after the photo of the eighty seven dollars
bill was posted a social media, it went viral. The
restaurants shane not allowing ABC six to talk with employees,
but in a statement telling us, in part, we are
deeply disappointed by the offensive message left on a recent receipt,
which goes against our values and the welcoming environment we
strive to create. There is no place for hate in
(50:43):
our restaurant. Can't talk to our employees and everybody ain't
got their papers.
Speaker 6 (50:46):
But in the signature section of her receipt, Stephanie wrote,
I hope Trump deports you. This isn't fair to migrants, okay,
because a lot of Mexicans especially have just become the
post to children for undocumented migrants. And that's not fair
because most Mexican immigrants in the US are documented, but
a significant number are not. But that does not give
people like Stephanie a right to profile them. Now I
(51:07):
know what a lot of y'all are thinking, because I
was thinking it too. How bad was Ricardo's service that
Stephanie wanted him to port?
Speaker 13 (51:15):
It like?
Speaker 6 (51:15):
This just wasn't a random attack, was it? You just
don't go from zero to deport him? Did he not
bring the guacamolean chips to the table fast enough that
she asked for no salt around the remember from Margarita
and Ricardo bought one with salt? Anyway, she wrote, I
hope Trump deport you, followed by zero you suck? Zero
is the amount of the tip that she wanted to leave.
But how bad was the service that she did all
(51:36):
of this? Did Ricardo not speak proper English? So there
was miscommunication? I'm just trying to figure out or I
was just trying to figure out how terrible a Mexican
service must be if you want them to port it.
I'm gonna be honest, every encounter I've ever had with
a Mexican in the service industry has been pleasant.
Speaker 7 (51:53):
Okay, dropping the clues bombs.
Speaker 6 (51:54):
For all the Mexicans in the service street, they are
super friendly, respectful, very hospitable, warm, which is why they
threw in the service industry in this country.
Speaker 5 (52:01):
So how bad was Ricardo's.
Speaker 6 (52:04):
Service that Stephanie not only said, I hope Trump deports you,
but you sucking god zero tip. Well, if that's what
you were thinking, that's wrong. That's not what happened. Stephanie
decided to have a side of racism with her Chimney
Changa because the restaurant had a one coupon per table
policy one coupon per table. Let the record show that
(52:25):
one coupon per table usually means one coupon per purchase,
So you can get one item, you can't use the
coupon for the whole table. I know that's where the
discrepancy lied. But the reason Stephanie is getting donkey of
to day is because she had first denied any involvement.
In fact, she went on social media and claimed that
her credit card had been.
Speaker 7 (52:47):
Lost or stolen and that someone else used it.
Speaker 6 (52:50):
But this proved to be a lie because the restaurant
has cameras, and the restaurant reviewed the footage and confirmed
that Stephanie had been sitting in her ass right there
in that restaurant the whole time. By the way, I
like a good liar, okay, I like a person who
makes up extravagant lies and follows through with the lies.
Stephanie went on Facebook and said, my credit card was lost,
(53:11):
are stolen, and somebody attempted to use it. Thanks for
the notifications. This has been reported through my bank. Then
she went on LinkedIn and said, thank you for all
the recent notifications of scammers and profile hackers. I recently
discovered a loss or missing credit card and an attempted purchase.
I appreciate your patience while I managed the situation. Then
she deleted all her social media accounts altogether smart because
(53:34):
she doesn't got the heart to stand on what she said.
I like a good liar, but I like a person
who stands on what they said. Even more, if you
wanted Ricardo to get deported, then stand on that. But
I guess that racism wasn't worth losing your job, was it?
Please let Chelsea handle give Stephanie Lovins the biggest he
haw hee haw hee haw That is way too much,
(53:55):
Dan Manes, You're a real estate agent, worked for Century
twenty one. You lost your job because you couldn't use
a coupon. You want a man deported because you're clearly
not selling any houses and wanted to use your coupon.
Speaker 5 (54:08):
I'm with you. How bad was the service? Where you
got a pen and wrote that down?
Speaker 6 (54:11):
And the service wasn't bad. That's what I thought at
first when I first read the story. She was actually
upsetting because she couldn't use the coupon. That's what she
was upseting. By Rocardo about yes and we know you
love Yeah, So what's next?
Speaker 7 (54:29):
I we know you loved the service of Mexico.
Speaker 5 (54:31):
I did I love the service?
Speaker 8 (54:33):
Yes? I did?
Speaker 5 (54:34):
And that's all all right?
Speaker 6 (54:37):
So it's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning yep was more
dangerous Morning you to Breakfast Club. Charlamagne and God just hilarious.
Envy and Laura are out, but we got some special
guests in the building right now. He's got a new
album out, Choirt Storm Lover.

How do you feel, my brother?
Speaker 13 (55:09):
I feel good, man, you know, I feel vibrant.
Speaker 21 (55:12):
I feel like I reinvented myself once again, you know,
And I'm thankful just to have my name in the
conversation after all these years, you know, twenty years of
the love experience and being in the music business. You know,
we celebrated that last year, you know, twenty twenty five.
So I'm actually currently in approaching year twenty one of
my first album, you know what I mean. And it's great, man,
(55:35):
it's great. It's a great I mean, you know. And
what better place to be in the morning my breakfast club.
Speaker 5 (55:40):
Thank you, brother.
Speaker 6 (55:40):
I feel like your name is always in the conversation,
Like we had Jill Scott up here. Jill Scott was
talking about how like there's certain artists that it ain't
about number one records, it ain't about you know, going
triple platinum or anything like that, but their name is
just always relevant and in the mix, and.
Speaker 5 (55:58):
I feel like you're one of them, especially when it
come R and B.
Speaker 13 (56:00):
I appreciate that, you know that. I think that that's pulse,
that's culture.
Speaker 21 (56:04):
You know, that's what that's that you know, that's that's
that's what I've always strived and aspired to inspire to be,
you know, at this point in my career. And yeah,
it's it's it's you know, it's not. We make it
look easy as an independent artist. I've been independent for
fifteen years, you know what I mean. So I've been
I've been my own trial and error in Guinea Pig
for a lot of different things. You know, even even
(56:25):
this release, you know this is an early release. There's
two there's there's two releases that that have happened, you
know what I mean. Shout out to even da Biz
and mad Rodriguez for for creating a platform that allows
us to go direct the consumer, you know, cut out
the middle man, a third party. It's the second time
j Cole has used the platform, you know, you know,
uh and most recently and back being back outside, I
(56:45):
actually discovered the platform through through uh L Russell, you know,
who's the case study artist. Yeah, and then we got
and then we got technology like like this, you know
n f c's you know, uh digital real estate where
where we allowed you know, the fans to get school content.
Speaker 13 (57:01):
Memorabilia and yeah.
Speaker 21 (57:03):
Man, so it's about being on the cutting edge of it,
you know, and and I got I got in early too,
you know, if you know, you know, you know investment talk,
you know what I mean. So so so it's about
not just it's not just about utilizing the tool. You know,
find a way to have you know, ownership in the tool,
(57:23):
you know what I mean, partnership in the tool.
Speaker 6 (57:25):
Screaming is like you've you've been around long enough to
see both sides of screaming is just a.
Speaker 12 (57:29):
Waste of time for artists, well, I mean yeah absolutely.
Speaker 21 (57:31):
When you when you when you see Jimmy Ive going
publicly saying that streaming is on his last leg, I mean,
you know, for me, it's just like you know, as
somebody who came out in two thousand and two, different
with the first record deal with Job and then the
album dropped in two thousand and five, you know, as
a curator, as a curator and the first R and
B SO singer to make mixtapes you know what I mean,
(57:52):
and being on the cut of cutting cutting edge of innovation,
like it's safe.
Speaker 13 (57:56):
To say CDs are back. Yeah, physical physical merchan is back.
Speaker 21 (58:02):
You know which by the way, you know, you get
the album on even, you get access to CDs, tape, cassettes,
vinyl that I got coming for for my top tier supporters.
On even, you get a second album that's not even out,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 15 (58:16):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (58:16):
So so so you know, no shade to any of
the DSPs. You know, I still rock with Apple. I
still rock with title.
Speaker 13 (58:24):
You know what I mean. The digital release for.
Speaker 21 (58:27):
The album you know where it goes global, uh, will
be on March six, you know, you know, but right
now we're focused on the super fans and give them,
the super fans an experience that only they can get.
Speaker 13 (58:38):
And uh, you know, I'm.
Speaker 21 (58:40):
Schooling, exchooling Spotify, Like that's the only place i'thing I
put on my music right now.
Speaker 13 (58:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 21 (58:44):
You running ice ads, Yeah, yeah, for sure, like they
will running You catch that they were.
Speaker 13 (58:51):
Definitely run Yeah, put it on your music.
Speaker 9 (58:53):
I mean they'll put it.
Speaker 21 (58:56):
And then and then and then and then the thing
where and then there's a thing where there's a lot
of if you go down the rabbit hole in terms
of moral compass, it's.
Speaker 13 (59:02):
Just things I don't agree with, you know what I mean?
Speaker 21 (59:04):
And then and then you and then you add the
fact that you know, we get a fraction of a
penny as an artist anyway, but that they've been robbing
as blind. It's a billion dollar company and we get
a fraction of a penny. So when you when you
utilize a platform like Even where you know a couple
My first release on Even was twenty thirteen Valentine's Day,
February thirteenth. That project went on to do somewhere between
(59:27):
like thirty and forty K, and only five hundred people
bought that album before I went, before I made it
public to the world, you know what I mean. So
you do the math, five hundred people, you know, thirty
or forty k? You know what you have to stream
to make thirty forty K? Like you know what I'm
saying these days, so so so so Yes, I applaud
(59:48):
the fact that you know that that CDs are back
and Vinyl never left and even for the cassette tape
levers out there trying to figure how we can get it,
how we can get it on a track Charlomagne yea yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:00:01):
Interesting records. I feel so sorry for artists.
Speaker 6 (01:00:04):
I would be the person that would go to your
page and buy your album and download it to my phone.
Speaker 13 (01:00:09):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
I would do that because when you.
Speaker 9 (01:00:12):
Say a fraction of you know, a bunch, a fraction
of a penny, and they don't even make pennies no more.
Speaker 7 (01:00:16):
Did you know that, right?
Speaker 21 (01:00:17):
I mean, hey, that's modern day slavery. But did you
know no, No, I know, yeah, I got I got
me right, I got a fifty roll.
Speaker 12 (01:00:28):
So that the name of the.
Speaker 9 (01:00:29):
Album quiet, Quiet Storm lover tone them that's a significance.
Speaker 21 (01:00:33):
Well, you know, you know, you know, I mean transparently,
I don't speak a link a lick of Frisch closest
against us to the title of this album. Right, But
but you know, French has always been associated with the
love language.
Speaker 13 (01:00:45):
You know, you know you know what I mean?
Speaker 21 (01:00:46):
And uh, you know, I probably you know, pepulate, people
probably know it's my French tonight.
Speaker 6 (01:00:51):
Why why well just say, like, why did you feel
like the first chapter or something bigger instead of like
a standalone album but you know I.
Speaker 21 (01:00:59):
Want I won't give all the game away today, but
I will say, you know, having the number one night
time showing the music in the DMV. Right now, I've
been I've been doing the original Choirs Storm. I'm now
doing radio full time Monday through Friday. And it's been
so surreal because I grew up listening to h U R.
I grew up listening to the quair Storm. You know,
Melvin Lindsay.
Speaker 13 (01:01:19):
It's where it started in d C. You know, Uh,
Kathy Hughes was was was the one who came up with.
Speaker 21 (01:01:25):
The idea, gave it the Melvin And so now that
being in hot seat, I'm living out my I don't
want to say, like anything I wanted to do as
a child, I'm in that space right now. Like you know,
I wanted to do radio. I wanted to do I
always wanted to have a go go band. I got
a go go band in DC called the Crank Crusades.
Shot out to the Crank Crusaders. You know, I'm doing that,
(01:01:46):
and you know, and I'm doing radio.
Speaker 13 (01:01:47):
So this album.
Speaker 21 (01:01:49):
I think was unique about Quadstorm Lover Volume one in
particular is that, uh it's a fusion of it's a fuw.
It's the fusion of my two my my first love
and my new found love, which is radio and media
and and you know, and when and when you throw that,
you know, it sounds it sounds like you know, it's
it's like, you know, it's a vibe. You don't have
to just let it play. I like laying plays on.
Speaker 6 (01:02:11):
I love when R and B lovers do R and
B radio shows Hotel. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
Your Andre Herrel God blessed dead. He used to do
champagnes and champagne and bubbles.
Speaker 21 (01:02:20):
Yeah, it's a vibe, you know. But it all started,
It all started with with the choir Storm. You know
that that format, you know what I mean? So to be,
you know they say you want to make God laugh,
make your own plans to be to be now doing
the original choirs Storm in DC has just been like
I feel like I'm getting my my good karma back
for all of love.
Speaker 13 (01:02:39):
I poured it into the city. You know.
Speaker 9 (01:02:41):
Now with this album, are you writing what were you
writing about what happened in your love life or this
this is a credit or just subjective?
Speaker 21 (01:02:52):
Yeah, I mean, I mean more importantly, just you have
to test the music out, so you got to make sure.
You know, I'm big on customer service, so when you
when you put it together, you got to make sure
that that it works properly. Yeah, you got to have
you got to Yeah, this is be blank, yeah you know,
but I mean yeah, I mean, so, what's also unique
about this album? It's all slow jams. So you know,
(01:03:13):
I'm going on record and saying like you know, like
you know, this is the slow jam album of the year.
That's because it's just a slow jam album of the year.
So if you're looking for you know, I got I
got you know, I can be Raheem Devon, could be
many things, right, but this is slow jam album of
the year. You know, I got some more. I got
some more treats coming, you know in the next twelve
(01:03:34):
to twenty four months. You know, if you if you
love Conscious, Raheem Mixtape, Nick Nixtape, Raheem Devon, you know,
but this is this is like, this is slow jams.
Speaker 8 (01:03:42):
Man.
Speaker 21 (01:03:42):
When you think about the Quiet Storm, you know, you
think about Keith Sweat Sweat Shop, you know what I mean,
Like you think you know it's it's it.
Speaker 13 (01:03:49):
Don't even require too much talking.
Speaker 21 (01:03:50):
It's really about that that that that playlist, a KA,
that laylist and which and what comes you know, what's
coming on before and after?
Speaker 6 (01:03:58):
You know what's interesting R and B to day, Like
it leans so heavy into like basically singing. Sounded like rappers, right,
So it's like a lot of I guess toxicity in
a way. What does healthy love fit in modern R
and B coaching?
Speaker 21 (01:04:12):
I think I think it fits, man, you know, I
think that speaks to someone's mental health. A lot of
time and the space you in. You know, when you
you know, the older you get, you know, I remember
somebody telling me, you know, in my thirties and my twenties,
you know, the forties would be the best time of
your life.
Speaker 13 (01:04:26):
You just got to get there.
Speaker 21 (01:04:27):
Yeah, so you know, by the time you get forty,
you know, I had a half a century. You know
which battles in life depict you know what I mean?
You you you understand the concept of time and that
we're all running out of time. You know, from the
time we get here. You understand, uh, you know, the
gift of decision and free will. Differently, you understand the
gift of one another. I feel like those are the
three greatest gifts. And if you utilize those, you know,
(01:04:50):
through through your artistry or you know, as it relates
that matters of the heart and intimacy, all the things.
Speaker 13 (01:04:56):
You know, you know, life is just a lot easier
and simpler.
Speaker 21 (01:05:00):
But you know, it's it's a it's a learning experience
and and and you know that toxicity is part of
it's part of growth.
Speaker 9 (01:05:07):
I guess you know, I love that you had Ari
Lennox on the voicemail. Yeah, man, with other significance other
than her being from you know, d n V as well.
Speaker 13 (01:05:16):
That was it, you know what I mean, And just
that that that was it.
Speaker 21 (01:05:19):
You know, I feel like, you know, I'm always waving
a flag, you know, for home, for the home team.
You know, whether it's whether it's Ari, you know, whether
it's Wilt, you know, the Crank Crusaders, the back you know,
backyard band essence. You know, artist like Neptune twenty one,
who's hanging out with me, is just an incredible artist.
Speaker 13 (01:05:38):
You know, on the come up, she looks like she
got boss. She just read ready and fired.
Speaker 21 (01:05:46):
She got and shout out to her and her team
because you know she's you know, it's Being an artist
is being many things. It's being is knowing when to
be the artist, is knowing it's starting, you know, Uh,
it's knowing being able to.
Speaker 13 (01:06:00):
Do content, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:06:01):
It's been helping me out, you know, been in charge
of content for for my rollout and uh you know
that that it gives me an opportunity to to do
what I'll do best. And it's just like invest in
and what's next, you know what I mean, like because
that's you know, that's something that you know, me coming
up under the tutelage and the mentorship of like DJ
Jazzy Jeff and you know, Kenny Dope, Louis Vega, you know, uh,
(01:06:25):
DJ Terry Hunter, like a lot of those guys I
met uh and countless artists as well through DJ Jazzy Jeff,
you know what I mean. So I'm just trying to
pay it forward, you know, uh, with with with with
artists and and and then and then and then and
it's and just representing, you know, and then and I
represent for Baltimore.
Speaker 15 (01:06:42):
Two years with it.
Speaker 13 (01:06:45):
What it shout to my Baltimore family too. For sure.
Speaker 5 (01:06:49):
You said something interesting, You said that toxicity is part
of growth.
Speaker 17 (01:06:52):
Right.
Speaker 6 (01:06:52):
And it's funny because I think about the R and
B that I grew up on. The music didn't even
reflect maybe the lives those guys we're living, yeah, which
is crazy, Like the music was all about love, It's
about love making. You know, these guys were begging for
their women back Like why I don't understand why we
don't have that energy now. It's almost like the lives
(01:07:15):
those guys were living outside of the music back then.
Those people are doing now and projecting it in their music.
Speaker 13 (01:07:21):
You know, Charlamagne. Some will blame the generation before us.
Speaker 21 (01:07:25):
Some will say that that that you know, it wasn't
passed down you know, you know, you know, and and
some may argue, you know, we're a product of what
we see.
Speaker 13 (01:07:36):
You know, you know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:07:38):
So you know, if we want to, if if you
want to see more of that love vibration, we got
to you know, breathe life into it. I'm you know,
I'm a powerful man. I believe in manifestation, you know, power,
prayer and you know, but it's the art of I
think it's I think it's a big difference between believing
and knowing.
Speaker 13 (01:07:56):
You know what I mean? And I believe in the art.
You know, I'm in the art of knowing.
Speaker 21 (01:07:59):
Uh yeah, man, you know I hope that I think
with this reason, I won't even call it a resurgence.
Speaker 13 (01:08:05):
I'm glad that Jill is back out, you know.
Speaker 7 (01:08:07):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:08:08):
I'm back outside. I stay outside, you know what I mean.
But but I must admit, like we turning up on
the promo side of things and the marketing side of things,
you know what I mean, But far too long. I mean,
I've probably been an industry best kept secret, you know,
and continue to do the work. It's about consistency, though,
you know, and being consistent.
Speaker 10 (01:08:29):
What's the most important lesson you learned of the album
that you have? You got twenty what is it, twenty.
Speaker 9 (01:08:37):
Lessons of Love?
Speaker 12 (01:08:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (01:08:38):
Right, yeah, Now, what's the.
Speaker 9 (01:08:40):
Most important lesson of love that you learned?
Speaker 8 (01:08:43):
Man?
Speaker 9 (01:08:43):
There's a lot of els.
Speaker 21 (01:08:49):
In order to be happy, you know, happiness requires selfishness
like that. Yeah, yeah, happiness requires selfishness, you know.
Speaker 13 (01:08:57):
What I mean.
Speaker 8 (01:08:58):
So so.
Speaker 21 (01:09:01):
I mean, I think, I think, I think, for one,
being able to to be just raw, blunt and honest,
you know what I mean. Dodge the dodge the gray
areas gray areas can be gray areas can be can't
feel like a safe space, but they can cause confusion.
Speaker 13 (01:09:23):
You know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:09:24):
Uh, but yeah, it's okay to just say it's it's
okay to say no, like you know what I mean.
Happiness require self, and it's like, it's okay to say no.
It's okay to it's okay to want to be alone sometimes,
you know, you know, you know, you know what I mean, Like,
you know, a lot of times we're so busy, we're
so we're so busy focusing on making everyone else happy,
(01:09:45):
you know, family, partners, whatever the case may be, right, like,
and there's nothing left for you. So you got to
start with you, you know, you know how how can
you say, how can you you know, love somebody, adoring
somebody if you don't like loving or doing yourself, you know,
don't like the person that you see when you look
in the mirror. Be the best version, Be the best
version of yourself you can be for you before you
(01:10:09):
engage with the world and someone else.
Speaker 6 (01:10:12):
I literally been telling people that all day you your first, last,
and best love is self love. Yeah, absolutely, you can't
recognize it in yourself.
Speaker 7 (01:10:18):
You'll never.
Speaker 21 (01:10:18):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're you're you'll misuse it, You'll you'll
you abuse it.
Speaker 13 (01:10:22):
You you'll be self sabotaging to it.
Speaker 16 (01:10:26):
You know.
Speaker 9 (01:10:27):
Now you're a tourist right now.
Speaker 13 (01:10:30):
May fifth single, the min Or two. Okay, that's yeah,
very much.
Speaker 7 (01:10:34):
You love that. That's holiday for Mexicans to.
Speaker 10 (01:10:39):
Anyway, What type of lover does that make you if
you're into astrology, because you.
Speaker 21 (01:10:43):
Know, I feel like it's two types of lovers. I mean,
you have givers and takers. So me, I'm I'm I'm
the type that wants to please my partner.
Speaker 13 (01:10:50):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 21 (01:10:51):
You know, I'm an O D you know what I
mean in some cases if that, if that's what's what's necessary,
you know, yeah, yeah, but I mean I feel like, yeah,
you got givers, you got to give us to take.
So you said, yeah, I'm definitely not the too manute brothers. Okay,
but not just unless you get yours off in thirty seconds.
Speaker 9 (01:11:09):
Not just I mean, I mean just a giver in
the relationship period.
Speaker 13 (01:11:16):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, for sure, for sure.
Speaker 9 (01:11:19):
You know, have you ever been a giver to a fault?
Speaker 8 (01:11:21):
Though?
Speaker 13 (01:11:22):
Like I think we I think we all have you
know what I mean.
Speaker 21 (01:11:24):
Like, you know, I think when I learned, when I
learned to not I'm kind of giving this away for too,
you know, you know Free Game, you know the book
I'm working on right now. But like as well, But
like when I when I learned not to treat the
person I'm dating like the girlfriend and not to treat
(01:11:46):
the girlfriend like a wife, because mean and what that
means is that boundaries.
Speaker 13 (01:11:53):
Are you know, you know what I mean. But these
are things you learned through therapy, you know, through helly
trial and error.
Speaker 11 (01:12:00):
You know.
Speaker 21 (01:12:00):
And yeah, so yeah, I mean, yeah, so every so
so so so do it do it to be intentional,
but do it with boundaries. Boundaries are necessary, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 9 (01:12:13):
What Zodie ex scime, would you tell people to stay
away from.
Speaker 13 (01:12:16):
What's your sign? Yeah? See, I gotta say, damn oh man,
I used to. I wouldn't.
Speaker 21 (01:12:25):
I wouldn't I would, I wouldn't hold I would because
you can't hold people just accountable to the to the astrology,
into the into the sign.
Speaker 13 (01:12:32):
Now you be jammed up.
Speaker 9 (01:12:34):
People be going down a rabbit hole.
Speaker 21 (01:12:35):
Yeah, I say, at the end of the day, it's
about you know, it's energy. It's energy, you know. And
the energy is a frequency, right and and it's reading
a wrong like you know, it's it's compatibility, it's growth,
you know. You know, any no matter what the scenario is,
you have to compromise is gonna be evolved because none
(01:12:57):
of us are perfect, none of the none, none of
us are perfect, and we're all growing in real time
hopefully you know. Good friend of mine says evolve or
repeat you know what I mean? And to add and
to add to that. The only time you should be
repeating the steps is in the process of evolution.
Speaker 6 (01:13:16):

Speaker 11 (01:13:29):
You know what I do.
Speaker 21 (01:13:30):
So love King of so On R and B Radio
Rahiem Devon aka mister Quiet Storm, and check it out.
This is a well permitted We're taking it all the
way Number one. You the twenty year anniversary edition right
here on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 12 (01:13:42):
Jadid I like that mourning Everybody's the j n V
Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne to God. We are the breakfast Club
lawl the ruses here as well. We got a special
guest in the building. We have the President and CEO
of Virtual Health, Dennis pulling Head. Welcome brother, thanks for
having how you feel a man?
Speaker 5 (01:14:03):
What is Virtual Health, my brother?
Speaker 4 (01:14:05):
Virtual Health is an academic health center health system in
South Jersey.
Speaker 15 (01:14:10):
So we have about four hundred locations.
Speaker 4 (01:14:12):
Taking care of the people of South Jersey and Philadelphia, Delaware.
Speaker 12 (01:14:17):
They mean taking care of people. Is this for people
that don't know? Is this older people or this people
that just have breaking down it a little bit.
Speaker 4 (01:14:24):
We provide health care for the community, so no matter
what you need, from birth to hospice, so and everything
in between, we take care of all that needs our care.
Speaker 6 (01:14:34):
I mean, that's that's needed now more than ever, especially
with the way that you know they've gotted the healthcare.
Speaker 12 (01:14:38):
That's all we're saying.
Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
You know it is, and particularly in the communities that
you guys all represent and sort of communicate with, it's
even more important to me. I don't have the audience
that you have when I say, y'all, I'm talking about
the people that tune into listening to you and so
(01:15:00):
so that community is very important to me, it's important
to our organization.
Speaker 20 (01:15:05):
I was glad to see I didn't know that you
were a black man in this position, but glad to
see it because I know a lot of what you
guys focus on is early detection.
Speaker 2 (01:15:14):
We do.
Speaker 15 (01:15:14):
You know the thing that a lot of people don't realize.
Speaker 4 (01:15:17):
Of the top five largest health systems in the country,
three of them are run by black men, and so
we have a special affinity to try and do what's right,
particularly in light of everything else that's going on in
the country.
Speaker 15 (01:15:34):
We're committed to taking care of our community.
Speaker 12 (01:15:36):
I was going to ask you what everything that's going on,
like she should kind of mention with the health industry,
what should people do?
Speaker 8 (01:15:42):
Right?
Speaker 12 (01:15:42):
So, you know, there's so many different scenarios.
Speaker 13 (01:15:44):
Right.
Speaker 12 (01:15:44):
You hear from people that they go get a surgery
in December, right now when they go back for postop
in January, that insurance is no longer covered by that hospital.
So now they have to find new doctors or not
covered at all, or they can't afford it. And they're
saying that there's surgery or whatever they have is not
necessarily insurance as a coverage, so.
Speaker 5 (01:16:05):
They have to go through the emergency room. So what
do you tell those people and.
Speaker 12 (01:16:08):
Those individuals that are going through all the things that
I've been taking.
Speaker 4 (01:16:10):
You ask a great question, you know what, I think
the number one problem in healthcare today is health literacy,
is people understanding how to navigate the system, understanding how
to take care of their bodies.
Speaker 15 (01:16:22):
I mean, you're a car guy.
Speaker 4 (01:16:24):
Most people spend more time focusing on the maintenance of
their vehicles than they do their own bodies.
Speaker 15 (01:16:30):
And so people showing up at the emergency room, which
could be you.
Speaker 4 (01:16:33):
Know, fifteen hundred, two thousand dollars visit when it's something
they may have been able to do through a virtual
care or through a primary care at forty dollars or
sixty dollars. So it's really about trying to educate people
on how to better navigate a very complex.
Speaker 6 (01:16:49):
System, and how do you ensure you're showing up with
purpose every day, not just treating it's like a business.
Speaker 4 (01:16:54):
First of all, you got to try and better understand
the people that we're taking care of and understanding what
their needs are and demonstrate that we're going to be
there for them when they need us, how they need us,
and where they need us, and being consistent. You know,
a lot she was asking about taking care of certain
population and black.
Speaker 15 (01:17:15):
Men in particular. You know, there's a lot of distrust
in healthcare and it's warranted.
Speaker 4 (01:17:19):
You know, our history has told us that it's certain
individuals don't get treated the same. And so for me,
you know, I try and create an environment where we
have cultural competencies, where people understand the needs of certain
communities and we show up and we do what's right
and not always you know, what's best for the moment.
Speaker 12 (01:17:40):
And how do they get that information you talk about
you know, people should understand more, but where can people
get that information from? And usually it's you know, it's
bottom of the ninth and they can't look for that information.
It's something's happening now, and I need to get it fixed.
Speaker 4 (01:17:54):
Yeah, because you know, if you look at it, black
women have a much higher incidence of death from cancer,
particularly breast cancer.
Speaker 15 (01:18:05):
Not because cancer shows up more in black women.
Speaker 4 (01:18:08):
It's because they get diagnosed at such a later stage
than the disease have already progressed. So how do you
prevent that from happening? You know, there's more information now
than ever. But the problem is there's also a lot
of misinformation. So finding a reliable source, finding somebody you
can trust, you know, not on TikTok, but maybe a
(01:18:30):
community physician, having a relationship with a health system like
a Virtua or many others.
Speaker 15 (01:18:37):
That's what's important. Educate yourself.
Speaker 12 (01:18:39):
I was gonna ask you know, a lot of times
people feel like hospitals in the quote unquote hood are
worse than hospitals in different areas. They feel like doctors
in the hood you'll get better treatment in different areas.
What do you say to those, because some of your
hospitals and your care centers are in the hood that
should be.
Speaker 15 (01:18:55):
As they should be. But I will tell you, unfortunately
some of that is true.
Speaker 4 (01:19:00):
Really Sometimes you know, people show up with their own biases,
and that when I'm talking about people some of the staff.
We have to educate folks, and so at Virtue what
we do unconscious biased training because there's this misnomer oftentimes
when some of us show up in emergency rooms that
(01:19:22):
were either drug seeking or our pain isn't as severe
as we make it out to be. And a lot
of that is because people have their bias about those
individuals that are coming in and then the other part
of that urban care. It is tough, you know, because
of the social economics of it. You know, when you
have a community that unfortunately may not be able to
(01:19:45):
afford insurance and rely on the government as its payer.
People don't realize that the government is the largest pairer
of health care there is. We always want to talk
about if we had a socialized medicine or one pack. Well,
right now, the government is the largest pair and unfortunately
(01:20:06):
it's through Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare pays US eighty five
cents on the dollar. Medicaid pays US roughly fifty five
cents on the dollar, and so that's at a loss.
And so it's difficult to have an ongoing you are
all business people to have an ongoing business enterprise when
your biggest payer pay you less than what.
Speaker 13 (01:20:27):
Your cost is.
Speaker 12 (01:20:29):
That's one thing I would say that I dislike about
about certain hospitals. When you go into screen and once
so oh my god, he was with.
Speaker 15 (01:20:36):
Me, held your hand. So I'm glad y'all y'all shared
that experience and I didn't have to be there.
Speaker 5 (01:20:42):
So it bathers be.
Speaker 12 (01:20:47):
I feel like when you go to the hospital, they
care more about insurance than the actual was going on,
you know what I mean, because they'd be like, YO,
put her in the chair, all right, I didn't need
you to sign this to any other and no disrespect.
My mind is not on these people. That mind is
on that person that's crying. That's that's hurt, that's sick,
that's that And that's the one thing that always baalthers me.
It's like it's so quick to throw that paper in
(01:21:09):
your in your face and to worry about And I
know we all got a job, and I know it's
a business, budd If my kid is crying on my
wife as this or somebody's that, like, I feel like
it's it's not personal enough.
Speaker 4 (01:21:22):
You know, I will agree and disagree, okay, because I
think in general, people that work in healthcare actually care.
They're there because most of us have a higher purpose.
It's not just about the money. It's not just about
the title. You absolutely absolutely want to take care of folks,
(01:21:43):
but there's a business side of it as well. And
you know we have at Virtual I have about sixteen
thousand employees that I have to be able to make
sure we have the resources to pay for their salaries
to I have the care that you want to receive.
And so should you experience that when you walk in
(01:22:05):
to be made to feel like a number or made
to feel like you know, if you don't have insurance,
then you sit over here and we'll get to you
and we get to you.
Speaker 15 (01:22:13):
No, that should not happen. Does it happen? It does, unfortunately,
and we have to.
Speaker 4 (01:22:18):
Take responsibility for that, which is why you need more
people that actually give a damn you know about all
the people that come in at Virtual And one of
the things that I sort of pride myself on is
being a champion of humanity. You know, it doesn't matter
what you look like, it doesn't matter your ability to
pay or night. What matters is we need to provide
(01:22:40):
you to care when you need it.
Speaker 12 (01:22:42):
Thank you for joining us and stopping in today. Man,
we really appreciate you. Dennis Pulling, Ladies and gentlemen, And
like he said, you can go to a virtue dot
org that's v I r t UA dot org. And
Charlamagne apologizes for using a lot of your doctors for
colonas a couple of months.
Speaker 4 (01:22:58):

to as opposed to when he app to. So I
appreciate you guys having me on, giving me an opportunity
to encourage people to invest in themselves and taking care
of themselves.
