Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We

(09:24):
are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in
the building. Yes, indeed from Bell and we have Jabari Banks. Well,
what's going on? How are you feeling, my brother? I'm
great man? How y'all man less Black and Hilly Favor. Yeah, exactly,
Blessed to be here, blessed to be with y'all. This
is incredible, that's right. Congratul on the successive bell As
thus far. Did you feel a lot of pressure having
to play such an iconic, iconic role, Yeah, definitely, definitely

(09:48):
the pressure. But you know, many talks with Will, many
talks with Morten Cooper, our creator, and you know, they
just reminded me to just be me, be me, you know,
bring myself to the role. And you know, it's exactly
what Will was doing when he was being the fresh
friends in the nineties, you know what I mean. He
was trying to be nobody else. That's what I had
to do. How did you get into acting? I got
into acting in high school and I sort of, you know,
it was just like dollying around. And then I went

(10:09):
to college for it because my mom needed me to
go to college, and I was like, I'll go to
college for acting. And then I'm from Philly and I
from Maryland. Yeah, and uh West Philadelphia boy and race. Yeah. Yeah, actual,
it's crazy because I live I lived in West Philly
with my uncle Phil. His name is James. Listen, listen.
His name is James James Brogan, right, Okay, but we
called him Phil because he lived in Philly and I

(10:31):
lived with him for a long time, and so that's
why you know, Uncle Phil's real name was James James.
A lot of instances within the show, not just me,
with everybody in the cast, you know what I mean,
that kind of like intertwined them with the story. But yeah, yeah,
I went to school in Philly at University of the Arts,
and then I fell in love with it. Then, so
did you tell people that story like growing up being

(10:51):
from Philly and having an uncle named No, it didn't.
It didn't make sense. I mean, it didn't look a register,
you know what I mean. Like I wasn't really tripping
off of it until every thing clicked and then it
was like, oh wow, like every part of my life
has sort of led up to this. Wow, you know
why you were a fresh Prince fan? I'm assuming Yeah, okay,
all right, now, according to the Philly Voice dot com,

(11:12):
the director, Morgan Cooper Heat had a twenty five thousand
dollar budget to do a feature film teaser for bell
Air with with different actors. So how did that turn
into this is gonna be a show. Well, so basically,
you know, Morgan put the trailer out, you know, just
out of love and out of a pure place, you
know what I mean. He was just like, I love
the Fresh Friends, I want to see this, I want
to tell the story that I want to tell, you know. Uh,

(11:32):
and he just he took that and he put it
on YouTube. And I think within the first day Will's company, Westbrook,
they hit him up and you know, they were like,
we want to, you know, talk with you and develop
this thing. And you know, I think a couple of
weeks after that, he was sitting with Will and he
was talking about, you know, where we want to take
this story and uh, you know, years down the line
here we are totally different tone though totally different tones.

(11:55):
Break that down. Break down if people haven't seen this show,
the differences between what we seen as a kid fresh
prince of bel Air. Yeah, well, you know, bel Lair
twenty twenty two version is a dramatic retelling of the
Fresh Prince of bel Lair, the quintessential nineties sitcom, and uh,
you know, it's all the characters that we know and love,
but basically we get to dive deep into who they
are and the actual stories that are going on in

(12:16):
their lives, and uh, you know, it's a it's a
modern day retelling of the Fresh Prince of bel Air basically,
and um, and when you think of the story, you know,
our our showrunner TJ. Brady, he said it perfectly. He
was like, we all know the story of the Joker,
you know what I mean. But when we see jan
Kie Phoenix do what he was doing, it was like,
did you really think about it? You know what I mean?
And so like we get to see the story, we

(12:37):
get to see how Will ends up in bell Lair,
and it's gonna be super exciting for like old fans
and new fans and man, it's it's been crazy to
love around the project. Did you were you afraid to
turn something that? I guess what's so happy? So I
would call it bright. I'll call Fred Prince of bel
Air bright? Would you were you afraid to turn something
like that? Dark? Nah? I wasn't afraid of it, um
because when I had seen Milk Morgan's trailer, I was like, oh,

(12:57):
I get it, I get it, and I'm I was
like watch that, you know what I mean. And so
I think it's I think it's important because it's a
reflection of our world, you know what I mean? And
I think, you know, it's it's important to see that.
How hands on was Will Smith during the taping and
all that, I always say that it was it was
great that he wasn't because he really gave us. He
really left the our retelling and our creation of these
characters to our own volition, you know what I mean,

(13:19):
And so that allowed us to create these, you know,
characters that ourselves are in, you know what I mean.
He didn't have his thumb on it, hella, you know
what I mean, And so I feel like that's what
I appreciated about him. But you know, he definitely gave
us a lot of tips. What about the other characters,
Carlton and all, any of them coming on and said
or did yeah, we have to, we have to. We
had a few talks with the original cast, so it
was definitely a blessing to to get their blessing then

(13:40):
to see that that torch passed, you know what I mean.
I always wonder to you know, if and I would
love to add world is but maybe he told you.
I wonder what he had played that character differently now
because you know, oh he's older now and he always
said that back then he was he would pretending to
be somebody he wasn't, right. I wonder what he played
that approach that character different? Definitely. Yeah, I feel you know,

(14:02):
like when he when he was, you know, doing the
Fresh Friends thing, he had no acting shops at all. Yeah,
you know what I mean, and so he was just
kind of up there just trying to figure it out.
And uh, I definitely think knowing what he knows now,
it definitely would have been different, but it wouldn't have
been as raw. So you got, you got acting shops,
so you weren't doing what willcames, but he said Will
used to be saying everybody. It was a little different
for me. It was a little different for me because

(14:23):
I was a theater actor and so this is my
first time being in front of a camera, in front
of a forty person you know, camera crew, and uh,
and so that was definitely a learning curve for sure.
How did this go to? You? Just? You know, I
just sent to him my audition, you know, with I had,
I had a manager, had an agent that I got
through a showcase, and uh, you know, they sent me
the call. They were like, Yo, there's this show called

(14:45):
bell Air and for this character Will. And I was like,
hold on Bellaire Will. And I saw the call and
I was like, okay, okay, I could do this. I
knew it was me. I just had to prove to
everybody else. But I thought that they wanted like a
big name, you know what I mean. I thought that
they wanted somebody who was recognizable to everybody else. And
so I was like, I don't know how I'm gonna
get this role, but you know what I mean, I
just had to surrender to the whole process. And uh.

(15:06):
And so I sent him my call and uh and
a couple of a couple of weeks down the line.
What did you have to do on that first tape?
Do you remember? Yeah, it was a couple It was
a couple of scenes. No I have to wrap, no, no,
I just uh, I just uh it was it was
a couple of scenes. It was actually a scene with
Lebron in it. Lebron was supposed to be in the
first episode, you know, it was you know, budgeting, you know, well,
he was supposed to be playing with it the the people

(15:26):
you're playing ball against. No, no, no, no, he was
to be at the bell Lay party. Was like, Yo,
that's Lebron, you know what I mean. So I didn't
seeing Lebron was in it um and I mean as
as soon as I read the scenes when I first
got the script, I was like, oh, this show has
something to say. All right, we have more with Jabari Banks,
he plays Will Smith in the new series Bella. We'll

breakfast starving. You know, I got hunger breath. We've already
had like great conversations before the mike even opened. Oh yeah,
you know, yeah we did a little bit. We didn't.

(25:59):
I just thought that you had to have a special
something had to be going on for Youffy, have you
ever tried to be on this show? Have you ever
had anybody reach out and say yes, mad People have
come to me and say, Yo, Godfrey wants to do
brekfas Club. When you're gonna have Godfrey on breakfast Club,
does anybody trying to book it? I'm saying, flame, Flame.
That's my homie who I've came up with in Chicago.
He was like, it's like, I've you need to get

(26:21):
on Breakfast Club. You need to I'm gonna tell him
you got to get on Breakfast Club. I said, but
what do I have? I thought you to have some
like a movie coming out, TV show coming out. But
I'm like, what do you say a lot. But then
I saw some people that ain't got It's like I'm
about to get on. They don't do a damn thing.

(26:41):
Get on. I read into you with the Nick Canna
Show and shout out to Nick Cannon first off, and
then sorry about his show got canceled. He didn't get
a fair shake. Man. Six months is in the long enough.
First of all, you can keep That's what I love
about this show. You guys keep it one hundred here. Absolutely.
They'll let white dudes stay on for thirty years as
averages and then we get cut off quick six months.

(27:04):
You can't even be an animation. They cut us off quick,
like come on, Like Black Dynamite done, I done, Boomdocs done,
Cleveland show done, and it was white people doing black
people voices done. Uh, you didn't know that. You didn't
know that. Oh yeah Cleveland they were all white people
doing doing black people voices. Yeah yeah, and then done Boom.

(27:27):
So it's like, but the Simpson has been on since
nineteen old. Yeah, they had thousand, thousand, what else? American
all of that, But like Nick Cannon, that needed time
to like like gel you know what I'm saying. It's
like with the nighttime talk shows and like they've all
been on forever, and then our city we had to

(27:48):
wait twenty years for the same black dude to come
back and then they canceled. You got you gotta give
people a chance they get the kinks out. Yeah, I
mean they give they give those white guys and white
women chances to fit, and they don't get better, and
they stay horrible, not all of them, but they stay horrible,
and they're like, but Nick Nick show, I thought, was cool,

(28:11):
good Nick, that's Staytime Daytimes like kind of you know, yeah,
it's the demographic, is uh what it's it's I mean,
I think it's white soccer moms. I think he was
trying to cater to but and he asked me, hey man,
why don't you write on my show? I said, okay

(28:32):
with rip Michael shout out rip Michaels rip. And I
was like, uh, yeah, okay, I'll do it. I've never
really done like Daytime, watched Daytime, but I'm like corny,
but I said it'll be a good challenge. And so
writing for Nick was cool. You know what I'm saying,
just to see the way Nick works. As I've been
doing the what's you called it? Um, the wild out,
you know, and Nick asked me to do while I said,

(28:53):
what was my old ass doing? A while he said, nah, man,
I'm gonna do old school. There's new school. And just
to watch Nick work and high so many different African
Americans and he just hires all kinds of people, but
just the way he works as a businessman, and then boom.
That's how I ran it to you. I'm telling you
Nick is hooked it up. It's always Nick Cannon. So
that's how I got here. You know, we've been wanting

(29:15):
you to do the Breakfast Club. I didn't believe you.
I thought you were lying because I just happened to
be working for me. I would do. But I was
like Angela, he is really nice, Like you're like nicer
than I, but not saying you were me, but you
were who is your perception? God? For nothing? Really? I

(29:37):
mean I just thought she was just I don't know,
because you know, I thought maybe she'd be like like
a little shit really, but you're super nice, like overly nice,
like you've been scoring before God free. Now we've been
like Armagne. Actually FaceTime Shaq when I saw I was
on FaceTime with Shaq. Yeah, they were talking about the

(29:59):
t I situation TI, because I guess TI um t
I did the Shock All Star uh a comedy thing
he did. Yeah, yeah, I remember we talked about that.
We said t I was gonna be on that show.
We had a hard time know he was doing the
shot comedy during Yeah, why are you making that face?

(30:20):
I feel like that's that's a little early for that.
What do you mean, I don't think. I mean I
thought like the Shock comedy although thing was for people
who had, like, you know, put in some time in
the comedy game, like after the platform you just jump
out on. I mean, I'm just I'm not get shot.
I mean, I get you know, Ti the celebrity. No,

(30:41):
but I'm not talking about performance wise. That's usually the
thing that takes you. I didn't say. If you recall,
we had a whole conversation up here about Godfrey and
Ti and how TI went on after Godfrey. You remember
we had that whole conversation. Yeah, I was in Atlanta.
I spoke about it. I was in Atlanta. I know
I'm gonna talking because it's still lingering a little bit.

(31:01):
But me and Ti coolly, first of all, when I
was in Atlanta, I was doing an Atlantic comedy theater
and I'm wanna stay. I did like hour forty right,
that's you know, that's what I do. That's what the
headliners do. And then my boy already Fuqua giving a
shouts out QUI already you know what. I'm stayed. He's like, hey, man,
I just gotta tell you something. I know this sounds strange,
but I gotta keep the show going. I was like,

(31:22):
what for. He's like, tis going up? And I literally
like to do what. I was like, I don't what
are you talking about? And he goes He's gonna do
comment and say oh okay, and it's I said, it's
his town. Let him go up. And all I said was,
you know I saw Ti because I'm tr fan. So
I was like, yo, ta, what's up. But I went
straight to the green room because I'm like, I'm I'm done.

(31:43):
I'm a headliner. I'm done. I'm going to decompress. That's
what I do. I don't give a who's in the room.
That is what I've always done. So they were like
on my podcast, they're like, yo, did you go see him?
I said, no, I don't what. I'm a headliner and
I mean, I've never I didn't know him to do comedy,
so I'm not going to watch. Not saying he shouldn't
be doing comedy. I'm just a headliner. I just finished.

(32:06):
It was for that moment, but then I know somebody
took that excerpt to be saying that showed it to
t I. And then TI was in the woods. You
know when Ti I go to the woods, I just
want to say something and I need to ex spraditionally
take care of this situation. And I was like, oh,
and then you know when tis in the woods and

(32:30):
he has that angle, it's like when Snoop Dogg is man,
all you see is his nostrils. Yeah, as his auntie
star part I, oh, Snoop about somebody up? But yeah
he was like some people were like, yo, did you hear?
And it just it spread like wildfire. And I had
dudes from the South, like comics from the South calling
me like yo, you see that TI said somebody and

(32:51):
saying what happened? And so I didn't even think about
it because as a comedian, that's just how we talk.
But like, yo, he's a comic. He he don't put
his time in. This is just this is just the
way we talked as comedian, and they took it as
an I was hating on him doing comedy. I said, nah, dude,
I didn't go watch him because I'm not gonna watch
somebody that I don't know if that's known for comedy.

(33:12):
After I've headlined that's it was just for that moment. Now,
if it would have happened that TI came before I
went up and said, hey man, I want to do
some time. I'll go yeah, and then I would have
watched just to say tis doing comedy, that's all, you know.
So after that then I addressed them right away. I said,
because people it went, I'm telling you, everybody's like, yo,

(33:33):
what are you gonna do? What you do? And of
course people can't wait to go in your DM go
hey man, you will put a man T. I was like, yo, duo,
Nick Cannon. I told him about it. He goes, yeah,
I heard about that, and then he facetimed us. I said,
let's talk. Let's go face to face. Man, I'm Chicago
all day. I just want to let you know I'm

(33:54):
Chicago and even though I've been in New York for
twenty years, I'm a Chicago guy. So we I go
face to face with here, I go, hey man, let's
talk about this squashed. It is not a big deal.
And we talked it out. We had a really nice conversation,
you know. And he said, you know, I look at
you as a goat man. You wanted to you know,
the greats in comedy. I said, well, I appreciate that.
That the podcast. I heard the podcast, Well this is before.
This is the afternoon before a few hours before the podcast.

(34:17):
And I said, no, I appreciate that. But then I said,
you know what, I even apologize. I said, I'm sorry
that you took it the wrong way. It's nothing wrong
with apologize to another dude. I said, hey man, I'm
sorry about that, but I'm not sorry about the way
I felt about how we are as comedians as protocol.
That's like and I then I told him, I said,
that's like me. After you finished rhyme, and I go, yo,
my man, T I know, you just rocked this concert,

(34:38):
but I got a couple songs to drop real quick.
You'd be like, exactly, But but you got to explain
it to him in that way, because that's the world.
He understands that I and I And so when I
looked at it. From his angle, I could see and
there are other comedians coming at him crazy. So it
was a build up. So when I said something and
then it just added to the whole thing. But we

(34:59):
squashed it. Then I say, can you do my podcast?
He said, I love the d podcast, And I said
when we had the podcast, then it got it got
a little heated because he said, man, I thought you
was cool when I first met you in the green room,
and then the next minute you dog. I said, it
wasn't a two faced thing. I was just talking as
a comedian doing comedy twenty five years and then you're

(35:19):
doing But I've always been a fan of comedy, I know,
but I have never seen you perform it. So it
was just one of those things. But we were cool.
As That's so true that people can hype things up.
So if y'all imagine you guys didn't directly have a conversation,
it could be something that really likes and said, I
like Atlanta, I want to be able to come I
want to be able to come back. I loved him.

(35:39):
That's one of my favorite people in one of my
favorite rappers. But yeah, you can't approach everything like the
rap world either though, Yeah this you know what I mean?
And I heard him on the podcast and you're talking like, y'all,
don't poke the ball, don't back, and I was like,
I'm not trying to poke the don't I'm I don't
poke the ball, and other boys like, yeah, man, let

(36:02):
go off them up. We have more with comedian Guy

(37:44):

My guys, I met Jesse. Cool dude, very nice guy.
And the two you don't want to hit that, guess
I guess what. The two Nigerian dudes I know, both
of them from Chicago. Hung out with them. We went

(38:06):
to a Nigerian festival. He's lying the next time. God,
you went to Nigerian Nigerian festival because I met them.
They were working at this There's this arcade it's like
an arcades calling poorting in Chicago on the North Side.
It's an arcade bar, you know how they're bringing out

(38:27):
these new old arcade games with the bar. We were
there and they were the bouncer dudes there, brothers, and
I hung out with them, okay, And then the next
day we went to a Nigerian festival in Chicago. Hell yeah,
we was eating sueya. You could ask them. I don't
know how they jail. No, they're man. Yeah, I know
those dudes because when they showed him, I got hung
out with those I'm not even lying to you nothing

(38:49):
or what is there you guys been to the sauna
or any No? Hell no, man, pause, Man, every time
you go to sauna, the dudes just going like he
own room. No, because they you know, the little white
dudes there we got there out sounds like, man, look

(39:13):
just like the statues a little. That's what happenny here for.
You gotta come back, man, dude, I don't want to
ask you to who's your Mount Rushmore of coming here?
I knew that. I knew that. I knew that was coming.
I think I okay, let me mind. Everybody's Mount Rushmore

(39:33):
is whatever they wanted to be. My Mount Rushmore I
should be cos you know, I mean that Cosby documentary. Yes,
we need to talk about Cosby. I am in it,
boy who all in it? Because I worked for Cosi.
It was one of my first jobs, the Cosby Show. Yeah,
the second one that CBS one. So I was an
audience coordinated for that. I lived in Queens, you know,
calling the Story studios, and I did it for like

(39:55):
six months. I was around Cosby. Never saw any crazy,
you know, it was cool. But you heard things, did
you hear? I would hear things, definitely hurt things. I
would hear stuff. That's when his son was murdered. I
was there, I was around, so I was yeah, so
I was of these because I was hearing it, hearing it,

(40:16):
hearing it. I would hear it. I go really, and
then I wasn't. My thing is it was a battle
because it's like whenever he wanted to buy us a channel,
a network, stuff came up the last time, the first time,
the first time he wanted to buy it, they had
the illegitimate daughters came out. When he wanted to buy

(40:36):
a network, they had there's some girls said you're my
dad or whatever. And then when he wanted to buy
it again, some came up and people say, well, they're
trying to destroy legacy. But then I would hear I would.
I knew people who kind of it happened to them
and they never reported them. And I was like, you know,
my mom knew somebody that never reported. Yeah, I knew

(40:58):
people that literally he got you know, handled and he
they were like, I never reported it because I got
out whatever. So I wasn't that surprised, but it was.
It was disappointing because he's a he is an icon
comedically what he's done for television. He literally was the
first black people a person to be on a national

(41:19):
TV show. I Spy in the sixties, Robert Cope then
he you know, he had a Cosby show before the
regular Cosby show. He was a gym teacher in the seventies,
he had a he had a Cosby show. He was like,
he was a gym teacher. I'm when I tell you,
I'm a nerd about how much of Bill's self righteousness
do you think you know led to That's another thing too,
when Bill was like dogging everybody, which was he had

(41:42):
fights with d L had a fight with him, He
Jamie Fox did. Eddie Murphy was the first to go.
You know, Bill Cosby called me saying, why are you
always cursing? And you know, and it was his self
righteous that made it even worse because pull your pants, U.
But I'm like, but Cosby, you were helped yourself too.
They were a man and man by the name of

(42:03):
Sheldon Leonard. Sheldon Leonard was an actor producer, and he
produced I think Dick van dykhel. He actually helped Bill
Cosby and fought for Bill Cosby to be on I
Spy in the sixties. So Cosby, you were helped too.
It's disappointing, you know, to go with the whole. But
I balanced it out pretty good. I think you know.
I didn't dog him, but I was disappointed. As far
as my Mount Rushmore, he's in the back of the

(42:27):
mountain right now. He's just in the back. He's in
the back, in the back. Like I got Fire, I
got Fire, I got Carlin, I got Um, I got
Paul Mooney and Kevin. I watched Paul all the time.
I'm a red fox and um, hold on, that's what
he's gonna be. Four, he said. I thought it was

(42:47):
five mounts. Four. Oh, I thought, oh, because everyone who
says your top five, so those are the guys. I
just put him in the back. He's just sitting the back.
He was in the front. And then him one of
the thing I had to go through the back, and
so it's remember prior calling, Prior, Carling, Mooney, Fox Godfrey.

the Prakfast Club bitches. Please don't give today today. Wow,
don't hear? The day goes to John F. Kennedy Middle

(44:40):
School in Connecticut, in particular a teacher named Bree Wharton.
She's the district's health and physical education coordinator and superintendent
Christopher Dreesick I think I'm for nothing his last name
right now. I have extreme love for public school teachers.
Dropping the clues box for all the public school teams
got down because my mother has been a public school
teacher in the South Carolina for as long as I've
been alive, and I understand the impact that public school

(45:01):
teachers have on kids, and I know how hard that
job is because you have to truly love it, because
it's not like to pay as your incentive. I mean,
you have to really care for these kids in their
well being. Lesson plans, assignments, all of these things teachers
come up with the educate kids. We appreciate you. Drop
another Cluel's bomb for teachers man public school teachers. We
know it's not easy and in this era of social media,

(45:22):
video games, all types of things just pulling at these
kids attention, cutting through to these children and creating things
that can actually appeal to these kids is tough. So
I'm not judging, okay, but as a parent of a
middle schooler, I would be concerned about this lesson plan
that came out of JFK Middle School. I'm holding it
in my hand right now, okay, And the title is

(45:44):
Pizza in Consent. Okay. Basically, kids at JFK Middle School
in Connecticut were instructed to use pizza as a metaphor
for sex and ask to cite their favorite topics. For example,
cheese was for kissing and olives were forgiving oral. Basically,
they compared ordering a pizza to receiving consent. I guess

(46:07):
I can't make this kind of stuff up. Listen to
Eric Sanzi, director of Outreach a Parents Defending Education. She
did an interview with ABC seven KATV to describe the assignment.
The assignment started out with a sentence that said, yes,
pizza can be a metaphor for sex, and then it
went on to explain that just like when friends have
to agree on pizza toppings when they're sharing a pizza,

(46:30):
that people need to agree on what they're willing to
do and not do in terms of consent. And so
they decided to have the students list their sexual likes
and dislikes and then draw them on a pizza as
pizza toppings. Now, again, these are eighth graders, and it's
important to keep in mind under fifteen percent of eighth
graders have had sex. So they're being asked very personal

(46:51):
questions on a topic that many of them are totally
inexperienced with and likely uncomfortable talking about in school his
middle school? How many topics do you think I've had
on my pizza in middle school? Now? Now, I'm not
a conspiracy theorist, but I enjoy a great conspiracy theory,
and pizza Gate was a great conspiracy theory. You remember
pizza Gate, don't you. I had a false allegation that

(47:13):
the Clinton's used the comic Ping Pong Pizza Restaurant and Watchton,
DC as a front for a pedophile sex ring in
the back room was supposedly used for kidnapping and kidnapping
and trafficking children. Okay, now, of course all of this
was proven to be false, but it made a lot
of noise, all right. The owner of Ping Pong and
his staff received death threats, people protested outside of the restaurant.
A guy actually went in the restaurant and fired a

(47:35):
gun at an employee. See these fake stories be having
real world consequences. Okay, people believe these conspiracy theories, and
when you promote these false and reckless conspiracy theories, bad
things happen. I'm saying all that to say JFK Middle
School in Connecticut has done nothing but contributed to that
conspiracy theory. I don't even know if Pizza Gate is
still a thing, but this right here is going to
resurrect it. All right. Listen, My daughter is a day grade,

(47:57):
she's thirteen. These kids are watching shows like you for It.
These kids have social media. These kids talk amongst each other.
Do you remember when you were thirteen, twelve, eleven, whatever
age we were in middle school? We was already talking
about sex in a real way. So I can only
imagine with all the access these kids have now what
their conversations are like. So you don't need stunt like this.

(48:17):
Just talk to the kids. Okay, let's talk to them,
all right, listen, let me let me reach out some
of this. This is why they use the metaphor for sex.
They say. When you order your pizza with friends, everyone
checks in about each other's preferences. Some people might be
veg and some people might be gluten free. Others might
love pineapple while others prefer pepperoni. Some might not like
pizza at all. If you're a vegetarian but your friend

(48:39):
is a meat lover, sharing a pizza is gonna bring
up a lot of issues. You don't know who you
can share your pizza with unless you ask. Okay, didn't
they say the same goals with sex? No, what are
talking about? The metaphor to make no sense? The correlation
makes no sense. You have to check in with your
partners and ask for their preferences. Your partner might be
comfortable with one sexual activity but not another. Maybe your

(49:00):
partners only want to be touched a certain way, or
maybe your partners prefer to use certain language, or maybe
they don't want to have sex at all. You'll never
know your wants, desires, and you'll never know if your wants,
desires and boundaries are compatible with theirs unless you ask. No,
I don't want y'all asking my daughter about any of that.
And once again, furthermore, how many toppings do you think

(49:21):
these kids have had in middle school? Middle school? I
would hope these kids are virgins? Okay, just playing cheese
pizzas matter of fact, No cheese, no tomato, sauce, just
raw dough. You know that hasn't even been putting up
in yet. All right. Amanda, who is a parent from
that school district, took to social media to express her
discuss with the assignment. Let's listen to Amanda. Just last week,
a school assignment and JFK label pizza and content were

(49:43):
sent out for students. What's pizza got to do with it?
You wonder we can use pizza as a metaphor for sex.
Those are the first two lines of this assignment, which
are centered around establishing consent and boundaries, except for page two,
where it takes it one step further in states. Now
that you know the metaphor for sex. Let's explore your reference,
draw and color your favorite type of pizza. Mirror these

(50:03):
preferences in relation to sex. Here are some examples, like
cheese equals kissing, dislikes allis equals giving oral Since one
has become acceptable for a teacher to ask a student
what their sexual wants, desires, and boundaries are, maybe our
board members would like to answer this assignment and share
their thoughts, just like our eighth grade students were requested
to do. Now, of course, the school is currently backtracking.

(50:26):
Superintendent Christopher Dreesi says it was a mistake and the
assignments had been inadvertently sent to the students. Basically, they
are claiming they sent the pizza to the wrong house. Okay,
he said. While the assignment was inappropriate, there was no
hidden agenda. He said while addressing the parents, there was
no secret cabal to indoctrinate kids on something. Let me
tell you, man, if you know you have to, you know,

(50:48):
explain that there's no secret cabal to indoctrinate kids. If
a school superintendent has to explain that, all right, then
my kids might be in the wrong school, all right.
An explanation like that is just I don't know, man,
I just feel like this assignment is prompting kids to
become sexually active before their time. And what does pizza
have to do with consent? I still don't even know that,

(51:09):
all right, Choosing what to put on your pizza when
you are ordering with a group, it's hard enough by itself.
Now you're trying to make it a metaphor for sex.
And even after it's been explained, I still don't know
what any of this has to do with consent. All right.
Just talk to these kids. They're young adults. Speak to
them as such. I promise they can handle it. But
pizza as a metaphor for consent, they cannot. And what's

(51:34):
the topic for antal? Please give John F. Kennedy Middle
School in Connecticut the bigga. See huh, My kids ain't
eating pizza no more. That's what you got out of that.
That's what you got out of that. That's what you
got out of that. Jesus Christ. The breakfast Club, College One,

(52:04):
the breakfast Club. Your morning's will never be the same morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Charlemagne, the guy. We are
the breakfast Club. You got a special guest in the building.
We have a lot of big lot of the biggest Welcome.
What's happening Ala comes out this Friday. Yeah, how you feeling,

(52:25):
I'm like feeling everything at once, Like I'm nervous but
I'm anxious, but I'm happy. I like that honest answer
because I always said after Kobe, when you ask somebody
how they're doing, yeah, you gotta ask that some silly
and expect like an honest and honest answer. Yeah. Yeah,
I'm excited though it's been a long time coming. How
you feeling personally as a human? Forget the album? Just

(52:46):
you trying to trying to wrap my head around it all,
like it's happening so fast, and then it's just like
a lot that I wasn't like made aware of, and
it's just like like what was you made a where?
Just like how in depth this? Yeah? Like crazy? What
you mean? I just came to wraps now begins Congratulations

(53:10):
on a number one record, right he said Big Energy
was number one. Congrats, thank Bang Energy. A lot of
people was in their feelings about that song. Yeah, if
they didn't have that big Energy, you know what I'm saying.
But one of our listeners called in and I want
to get your advice. Here was her question. I started
talking to a new guy and like everything was good,
but like he kind of has like some female tendencies

(53:31):
that I don't like. They kind of made me like
cringe a little bit. What do you mean by that?
What do you mean by female tendencies? So like, sometimes
he'll sing songs that are like a little bit too feminine,
like things like songs that he shouldn't be singing, like
what so so big Energy by big Battle, Like I

(53:52):
don't feel like a man should be singing those songs,
like I gotta lie those I love one record. I
love both those songs that female. As a female, yes,
I love those those songs and I would sing them,
But I don't think a man should be singing about
those songs. What do you say, big energy or as
a guy, you can't sing that song? I think you can.

(54:13):
First of all, I try at least maybe not every song,
but I try to make the most um unisex music.
I think, like out of a lot of female rappers,
I think I'm the one that makes music for both genders,
like my uncles, my cousins, my man, his friends. Now
a man of average penis size I was highly offended

(54:33):
by your song. If you listen to the song, it's
not about what's in your parts though, it's not because
I got he says, but continue shout out, why are you?
What's up with you? Man from Atlanta? Okay, Relax, it's
not a it's not a it's not a like gender
thing or it's not literally what's in your parents That

(54:53):
energy does transfer over. I mean the confidence that you have. Yeah,
but that's where they're saying come from, because it comes
from like you know how they say men that know
they got a lot of you know, hands, they'd be
walking around like they don't think. I just feel like
all penic sid doesn't matter, you know what I mean?
He cried, It's not about that. It's not about that

(55:17):
this morning, so we'll be all right. Have you ever
been wrong about somebody's energy though, like somebody walking and
they got that b D but then you know they
were just Have I ever been wrong? I don't think
I ever been wrong. I really could smell it from away.
I'm like that the problems Tom Tom clear clear, Yeah

(55:41):
yeah it is. Yeah, what do you call big? Is it?
Like like like I knew you were just gonna give
me just problem. I'm just asking. I just want to
know he's really hurt by big big energy, big lotto,
big energy, big energy his wife. Oh, don't say that,

(56:01):
But what are you talking about on him with a
guy with her? I don't want to know how to exactly.
I don't want to ye Ago, we've been together for
a long time. It's not about what's in your past.
I don't call you, don't who listen. All I know

(56:23):
is can we both agree some small energy in this
room from the two of them this morning? No, I'm
not gonna do them like now. Yeah, this is spelling insecure,
it's giving insecure. We're asking questions. Why can't we ask questions? Anyways?
Back to the college. You know what I'm saying. She

(56:44):
I don't agree with shouted. I think that men can
listen to them songs, but now they can sing them
like yes, they can agree, Yes they can mean because
if not, then then I'm then y'all exing me out
of fifty percent of the market. That's right. Can't do
me like that, girl, I'm trying to get this money. Hey,
technically the song is about many yeah, yeah, yeah, And

(57:05):
that's why I had added those things like in the
beginning where I said, um, hey, daddy, when you're gonna
stop playing? Like I wanted it to be. I didn't
want it to just be like stepping on like I
wanted it to be, like you don't want to hear
nobody's family. Yeah, he says that to me every morning. Yo,
hey daddy, when you're gonna stop playing. I don't know
what he was getting that from. This guy is crazy
plays stop Why I'm talking seven seven seven? And I

(57:27):
see you gotta tatt it on you next to the
un Yeah, I've been had this tattoed on me for like,
this is one of my first tattoos. So seven always
been like my favorite numbers number. Um, everyone who I
love favorite number of seven, like my grandma, my daddy
and everybody's favorite number seven. Triple you know, overcome six
sixty six and baby we I'm gosh, I'm God's favorite.

(57:48):
Matter of fact. So you know, I don't play about daddy.
So but when I changed my name to Lotto in
reference to the lottery like casino jack, pote, whatever, it
became a part of my brand then. But it just
kind of just in place because it was already something
that meant a lot to me anyways. And then you
know the album and stuff I just wanted to like,
but the previous name just harboring that negative energy and stuff.

(58:10):
I just wanted to like turn over a new leaf,
like new chapter, new era. And I think it's been
manifesting like good things. I like that, especially the whole
six six six things. It's like, yo, why not flip that?
Let's do God? Because I'd be seeing people do that.
I'd be like, what, we don't do that Christian Christian? Yeah,
we don't put like my grandma like you ain't touching

(58:31):
that food. Let's un let's say grace. Another big conversation
is who's from Atlanta? Clearly not me? No, just like
why is this such a big conversation about who's from Alanda,
who's not from Atlanta, who's around on the outskirts of Atlanta?
At I don't think I don't think it's just Atlanta though,
Like I'maretta was really just saying like because so many

(58:51):
other people from different cities was relating to it too,
she was just speaking from Atlanta. Like they'd be like, oh,
if you're not from the actual city, don't claim the
actual city. But but I'm one thing about I'm gonna
let you know I'm from Clicko. I'm gonna let you
know that. But to the masses to the world, y'all
probably never even heard of Clico. So to the world,
I'm from Atlanta. Yeah, it's really people not from there
that just be like, oh, yeah, she from Atlanta, and

(59:13):
y'all represent Atlanta too, like the culture of it. Yeah,
and you got on the remix. Yeah, because I'm I'm
a reader, like she hard, like she could wrap and
I understood what she was saying, like it wasn't no shade,
like people are trying to flip it into this thing like, oh,
she's shading you. What you're gonna do, what you're gonna do.
I ain't take it as shade, like I'm literally she said,
like she said what she's saying, it's not a lot.

(59:34):
Isn't that crazy that people could have started like a
beef because you know how fans are going to jump
in and be like, oh, she's talking crazy about you.
Imagine if you would have fed into that and been
like many I could have. I could have for sure,
Like they do that a lot, especially with female rappers,
like they do that they can't wait to pay y'all
against each other. And that's why I always say, nine
times out of ten when the girls is BeFAN where

(59:55):
they got an issue underlying issue, it don't be them
like we would. Really, we got so much stuff to
relate to in real life. We got so many stories
that we can tell each other and be like, girl,
you're going through that. I'm going through that too, Like
it'd be the blogs and the fans and stuff, and
it's really not fair to us because in real life
we would probably get along this online harassment of a
like impact your mental health and your emotional well being. Yes, yeah,

(01:00:18):
like I'm going through that right now, like trying to
find me time and like self care, like make sure
my mental is straight because when it's I always say,
when it when it starts to not be fun, no more,
I'm gonna take a break and recollect. But I'm on
tour and stuff, so it's like it's fun. It's fun,
Like I'm I'm not gonna let that distract me and
take away, you know, my happiness. This this is my

(01:00:39):
second project with RCA, it's my first tour and I'm
selling out like crazy, like I want to enjoy it.
It's fun until you get online, Like I saw something
with you. They was messing with you about having a
small stage, which wasn't a small stage. It's three thousand people.
First of all, I'm in Santa Cruz. First of all,
I was selling out a thousand people. A thousand of
people in Santa Cruz is not coming out to see
new artists period. So I'm gonna pop it. That's why

(01:01:02):
I'm still trying to find You know the times where
I like how to Clayton County came out with then
you remember the media training stages that held Yeah, but
it doesn't matter. I think what irritates me is because
there'd be so many people that's not in the industry

(01:01:22):
speaking on stuff that have to do with the industry,
Like y'all don't have no clue of what's going on.
Y'all be impressed by these big old stages. When I
post rolling Loud or I post made in America, y'all
be like, oh my god, you made it, you made it.
The people is here to see a hundred of other people.
There's not here just to see me. Dumb people in
that room screaming word for word songs that I dropped
five years ago, so that hit different. All right. We

(01:01:45):
got more with Big Lotto when we come back, don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning. Why everybody get cj
Envy and Ngula yee. Charlo Migne, the guy we are
the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Big Lotto.
Her album comes out this Friday, seven seventy seven. Charlemagne,
you do realize that most of these people on social
media just mad that you went it? Yeah? Yeah, but
you know what I think, because I did the rap

(01:02:07):
game like so long ago. I being got like that
dragon on tutor and stuff, and that's not new to me.
It's not new to me, So it's like I still
gotta figure out I want to because then y'all got
the label from me media training this stuff. Now, boy,
and you talked about working on the album and having

(01:02:29):
a problem clearing. Yeah, and then everybody looked at your
track listed to try all this that was it's like
a hip hop who done it at this point and
said that that Mulatto girl is not talking about me, homie.
I just seen that before I walked in. My intentions
was not to like make this a whole thing. I
just was looking at it as like, I'm a new

(01:02:52):
female rapper in the game. I wish somebody could have
gave me some insight about how this stuff really go.
Like you hear like, oh, female rappers have it harder,
But I really wanted to give like a little insight
as to like what specifically makes it harder for a
female rapper. I didn't want it to like distract from
the music or anything, so like I kind of wish
in a way, I didn't say that, how did that
person react? Because I'm sure at that point it's like, well,

(01:03:13):
I don't want to be on the album because not
everybody's gonna be looking at me. I haven't heard from them. Yeah,
but you know what, if you did that, you should
be ashamed and not want to you know, like, what
are you supposed to do if you if a guy
did that to you, he should really just shut up
or even a apologize or yeah, or apologize that that
would mean because I don't. I mean, I'm not here

(01:03:36):
to raise nobody. I'm just speaking on like what I
go through, you know, and I think I'm allowed to
do that to a certain extent. Social media is trying
to turn it into this thing where it's like, oh,
I'm trying to cloud chase or like silence my experiences.
So I think you're living your truth. Yeah, you know,
and if your intentions are to help the next person
coming behind you, like why not? Because these are things

(01:03:57):
that we've always heard about, but you know, specifically what
like people always say, oh, it's harder for a female rapper,
it's harder for a female rapper, but specifically, what do
we be dealing with that people don't know? You know
what I'm saying. And it's not even as other artists,
it'd be managers produced. Yeah. Oh that's why I was.
I was really shocked by that because I'm like, oh,
that's what got y'all should Oh y'all would? That was

(01:04:19):
just yeah, how does that make you? Like if you
want to do a record with somebody or you want
to collaborate, now that you say, well, I'm gonna get
my manager to reach out because I don't know. Oh,
that's that's what it always be though, Like they even
switched it like that, they're like, oh, well, why would
you even reach out to that person? I don't even
do that. I don't do business like that. It's always
through management. I don't shouldn't have to be like that, though.
If you feel an artist to be like I think
he sounds dope on this record, you should be able

(01:04:40):
to be like, yo, bro, I think we should collab
and it shouldn't be a problem. You know, it shouldn't.
But her reality is reality is it most likely will
be or that would like, you know, do something that
offends you or try to cross the boundary or whatever.
So I always like, especially with male rappers, I don't
want and say who it was. Yeah, I just feel

(01:05:02):
like because it's gonna distract from the music, and my
attentionous is not to get anyone dragged or anything. I
just wanted to speak from, like what do I deal with?
I don't specifically want someone to you know, get dragged
or that cancel culture. Did other female artists, other female
rappers hit you up after that to be like thank
you for speaking up? Yeah? They did, and I thought
that was real dope and hopefully without a mess in

(01:05:25):
the drama. Hopefully more people can't feel comfortable to speak up.
So it's been like that from day one, Like even
when you were just an aspiring rapper trying to get on,
it's been like that, What did your man have to
say about all this? He tried to stay out the way.
I try to keep him out of the way too,
because I don't I don't want, you know, I don't

(01:05:46):
want him to have any pressure or like feel like
he gotta defend me like I'm straight. Because that had
to be hard for him to hear too, especially when
you tell him I know he was like I would,
yeah for sure, but I think when you dating a
female rapper, you just gotta I know, some stuff just
gonna come with it. Was that? What didn't hear it
on the Big Boy interview? No, yeah, yeah, I tell
him everything. Yeah, he don't like want to go step

(01:06:08):
to the guy, like let me go talk to him.
I don't know what you want to do. Yeah, it's
interesting because I can feel your energy come down you
start talking about that. Yeah, because I just it just
been like too much. It's been too much. That's so
I'm just ready for the album to come out. The remix.
The remix got clear like just in time like that.

(01:06:29):
That was a whole another thing that was just on
my mentor like when I tell you I've been scressed
out with a K scrissed scressed, But it's okay because
God got me. And I really feel like everything I'm
going through right now is just prepping me for I
was to come. What perception, though, did you have with
an industry that that once you got in you realize
it was all wrong? Yeah? I think I was. I

(01:06:50):
was rapping at eight years old. I did the rap
game at sixteen, so I thought everything was peaches and cream, Like, Oh,
I'm like, oh, I just get my makeup done and
shoot videos and then I'd be number one on Billboard.
That's how I go. That's what I thought, you know,
as a kid coming into it. But I think it
made me. It made me like grow up faster because
I had to see, you know, as a as a

(01:07:12):
kid like that. Ain't this stuff not sweet? Like people
they don't give a man? What was your first like
rude awakening? My first rude awakening? I don't I don't
even remember my first before the rap game or after
that or during probably probably like during after the rap
game stuff. You regret that at all so much that

(01:07:32):
you wasn't a reality rap Yeah, I mean, now that
I got through it, no, But because it was a
lot to get through. It really was now that I
got through it, No, but going when like, you know,
the ups and downs of like trying to get away
from that image that I was first introduced to the
world as and like the music changing and just growing

(01:07:53):
up in general. Like that it did made me be like, man,
I wish I never did this, but now I'm grateful
because it just showed people like this ain't overnight people
being seeing me. You know, I've been working like so
it's cool now that I've overcame it and it's like, oh,
I see her come up. I respect it now. You
also have this song rust No Bitch on the album.

(01:08:13):
Do you feel like being in a position that you're
and people do try to come at you because you
know how you try to go for somebody who's winning
to get attention. Yeah, yeah, I really think that, and
I just that's not gonna stop. The only thing that
I can control is my response to it. So I'm
just trying to learn how to like they gonna they're
gonna gun for you, They're gonna try to provoke you,

(01:08:34):
and if you let them, then they're gonna keep doing.
I just gotta go Beyonce on these bitches, go silent
on that yeah, and then I'm still me, like I
look like it's hard to look at yourself from the
third person point of view, so when the level be like,
oh you got this and this now like yeah, but

(01:08:55):
it's hard for me to look at myself like that. Like,
if you disrespect me, I'm on your ass. It's hard
for me not to be. I think I only find
it disrespectful when I actually know the person. Yeah, people,
I don't know. It's like ghosts. It's like, hey, what
I wish. I wish I thought would be like that.
One day I'm gonna be like you you can't. One
day you got a chance to have a conversation with

(01:09:15):
Holly Berry. Yeah, how was that? Hallie Barry? Hallie? She
looks so good? First of all, she looks so good.
I'm like, girl, I want to grow up and look
like you. She looks so good. She was so was
it already set up? It was already said. But it
was the weirdest sexual request to actress ever received. I
was no. First of all, I really want to put

(01:09:36):
emphasis I'll probably get in trouble for this, but I
want to put emphasis on that these questions per ridden
because when I seen him, I said that is disrespectful.
To add Hallie Berry, that is disrespectful. My grandma would
slap me on the head. To your grandma. But they
was like that, she said it's okay. So like, okay,
So when I see her conversation, I guess so I'm like,

(01:10:00):
y'all sure she said this okay. So I'm like, girls,
did you see this question? Yeah? I was like, I
thought it was disrespected. She was like, no girl, no, girls,
I'm like, okay, but if they was punking you, and
then she was like, what I care would be? That
would mean that, that would be mean. Don't set me

(01:10:21):
up with Hatley. We got them up with Big Lotto.
When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
Good Morning, the Breakfast Club. It's Club Power one five one.
I'll never be the same morning everybody. It's DJ Envy,

(01:10:43):
Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are. The Breakfast Club
was still kicking it with Big Lotto. Her album comes
out this Friday, seven, seven to seven. It's something about
you that's very grounded. Really yeah, what what does that mean? Grounded? Grounded?
Like just a humility about you, like you know, and
I feel like you were that way before you got
into games. Where do you where do you contribute that too?

(01:11:05):
Probably what I was saying. I think it's I think
it goes back to what I was saying earlier, like
I'm really just grateful to b Y. I'm man, I
don't take it for granted because it didn't happen overnight,
and I really put in the work and I been
told no so many times. I didn't dealt with so
much stuff behind closed doors to get to why I'm at,

(01:11:25):
So I just appreciate it. What did your people want
you to do coming up? Like your grandma? What do
they want you to It's so crazy because most people,
like family don't support like an artistic job, like they like,
oh go to college a lie, But my my folks
never did it. Your dad managed you, right, Yeah, My
daddy managed me. My mama did my business management, and everybody.

(01:11:46):
It was just like a family effort thing. Like my
daddy used to pay for me to be on shows
like Broo hen she hit the stage two hundred dollars
right now, like they supported me one hundred percent. That's
probably what attributes Yeah, how did you get a feel
now though? Because it's like you know he's still always
in protecting old yea. When he heard something, I'm sure
he's ready to go get a baseball bat on him

(01:12:07):
and go up somebody a head. Yeah, he don't. He
doesn't like about me for the show, but I think
for the most part, he's just happy to see me,
you know, doing what we what we pray for. I
would we prepare for it for so long your daddy's girl.
I don't know, because when I was younger, I used
to be a daddy's girl. But then I you know,

(01:12:28):
when I'm getting into like my grown woman, Well, when
I think I'm a grown woman, like sixteen, I became
more of a mama's your dad. Deal with that because
you were drag racing with him, you was this little Yeah,
I know, I really was. I know it's still be
I'm not even gonna act like we just got it down, Pad.
We still be like back and forth, like we get

(01:12:48):
on each other head. We have our time where we're
not with each other, because it's a lot to have,
you know, your parents involved in your business, especially when
they seeing you like Willy, it gets a little weird.
But we figured it out, and I know he got
my best interest at heart regardless. You know, I love
him to do and when you talk yes on those

(01:13:08):
songs though, Yeah, I mean it's fun. But I do
be thinking, like I wonder, I wonder what everybody say.
Everybody be saying that. I think we just we're just
figuring it out as we go, Like how do you
act like a thug? What song on the album? When
you from like a thug, he ain't heard us, you

(01:13:31):
can't play all the stuff and you just let them
just read the track list and they know which ones
to skill. Say, how do you do that? Okay? If
from like a thug, it's just like taking authority, it's
just me like not playing the like laid back row,
just me like getting on top. Yeah, slap him. Maybe

(01:13:53):
I think fathers were just protective and like it's anxiety
you have. You have a lot of anxiety when you
have children, but when you have daughters. You know what
I'm saying, So you're just you're you're overly protective, and
I guess I can see where that could come off
is like give me some space, pops. Yeah, And that's
what it was a lot of that in like in
the beginning sty just like when I'm fresh off the

(01:14:14):
rap game, and I'm like getting my first car, my
first apartment. I remember being like, okay, I want to
custom my music now, and he was like no. I
was probably like seventeen, I get it. I wann't trying
to talk about popping it like a wheelie. I was
just trying to be like man. But he was like yeah, no.

(01:14:36):
And I loved when I saw you on Andree Martinez
and what you said about your haters, and you was like,
if they if they're hating on me, you just might
as well figure out a way to be a fan. Yeah,
because baby, I'm gonna try to prove you wrong. They
always say that about me, like you know what's so crazy?
Big energy. It debuted on a bubbling under um on Billboard,

(01:14:57):
and I was like, okay, bet everybody's making fun of me, like,
oh yeah, you thought this was gonna go up. It's
bubbling under Okay, now I'm number fourteen. Yeah, so that's
