You know, you from South Carolina, you were broken, You got a job in New Yorky working. You know. I don't see the problem. I mean, sounds like a great come up story to me. I don't know. I was proud of you. I mean, hey, it flew to my dude, gold Golden eyes. I still talk to Goldie. I don't know, I don't

You know, I got on in two days ago. You know, I'm just an outcomings of media. But what I really wanted to get off my traffics. Why as six in the morning, and I'm certain people I think they forgot it on hygiene. Im there's no reason that six in the morning you feel like the backup a trash truck and the ship just saw no man. But if you do garbage though, if you're a garbage person that stays in your paws, though, come on, it might have been great.
It might have been trash from the day before. And to the guy that called right before this is Angela Ye. He can see Angela Lee. Anyone does that? Man? It's clearly eating park early in the morning. Man. I just want to say, sometimes people smell because of their clothes. You ever noticed that sometimes people if you shower and you put on dirty clothes or old, you're still gonna smell. So make sure you watch your clothes. You don't if you cheap the turgion sometimes cheap the churches don't work.
That's why you got it from breeze everything Okay, get it off your chest. You ain't broke no more. Show them you ain't got to breeze everything away. I'm always living like from breeze, get get some. I just wasn't sure what he wanted. Like nobody, I don't know. I don't know the breakfast Club morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomane the guy. We are the breakfast club. We got a special guests in the building, my partner, but Cary Sellers. What's going on fallas now? I'm glad
to be back. Thank you guys for having me so much. How do we introduce Bakari Nowadays? In London, political commentator put in retirement attention. Just cool guy. You come you're not to retire retirement and I got put in the retirement. I guess I lost my last election. That do mean nothing. I'm getting back out there one day. So you know, you know when Hillary we had Hillary up here, Hillary say, um, I would love to see She was thrush me telling
about Steve Benjamin Man in Colembu, South Carolina. And then she was like, start talking about you. And I said, I was Card, get back in politics. She said me too. I'm getting I'm getting back in that soon. That interview was dope, though. Congratulations on landing that Hillary Clinton interview. They almost didn't do it because Charlottage for Card, you know, Mcard sept the whole interview. Thank you. You You know, I'm sorry about it. I think he gave a donkey one time.
You know, his tweets they went back, they went back to tweets from like four years ago, and they they got a phone call the next the morning before the interview, and they were like, Beccard, this is all on you. If this goes bad, this is all on yours. I was nervous, but I had talked Charlomagne. I know they had y'all at some clandestine site out there, and I was like, y'all it turned out really well. It was good. You remember, remember we had the Scout app. Yes, the
Scout app. I had a video on to scout out what I had a Hillary Clinton mask and I was humping, oh yeah, that had to come down first. People don't know. I mean I all of that. Oh yeah. I was texting him like, man, take this down, and this and this one morning, the whole time and this they find that because running for president, Yeah, they find all of that. But you know now, I mean I came on here
in twenty fourteen. You had the mayor of Newark, you got Andrew Gillham, you got Hillary Clinton, Bernie SAMs, I mean Eric goddamn. Yeah. So now this is the place, This is the place to come. Everybody who's running for office, white, black, otherwise needs to come by here. So Andrew Cromo, Cynthia Nixon, they both need to make a stop by here. A lot of people that came in at Lord stint Goo.
That's not true. What happened. No, I mean I ran against somebody who had been running for office since nineteen eighty four. The same year I was born um. South Carolina is still a very Republican state, and you know, I think I could run a campaign, but I also think that the state wasn't ready to have a black elected statewide official. There was a Democrat because Tim Scott did win, but just not espousing the values that I did. You know, we talked about taking the Confederate flag down
in twenty fourteen, before it was popular. You know, people were giving us death threats and threatening messages about doing it, and so I don't think the state was ready. I think it's getting there, but I was happy to be a part of it. I had been an elected office
for ten years. So now as you get a chance to take a step back and realize you weren't as important as you thought you were, which is ironic that you know you was getting death threats of trying to get the flag down, because it took death to get the flag down. I mean, that's why, you know, when I bringing it, to bring it kind of forward to
Childish Gambino's video like This is America. One of those scenes in there when they gunned down in the church and then you see you see the paranoia and the mass paranoia afterwards I mean, they just took me back to another place. I mean, I hadn't cried so much in a very very long time, and you know, talking about a upcoming book you got. You know, my anxiety just went through the roof after that because you lost a friend. One of my good friends, Clem Pinckney, was
a preacher in that church. He actually made it. He was the only person who made it a lie from the church to the hospital and he died at the hospital. His wife was in the church, his daughter was in the church. He invited Dylan Roof into the church, and he actually had Dylan Roof sit right by him doing Bible study. And he was killed because of the color of his skin. So we still got a long way to go. But yeah, that was a part of our campaign and it just didn't work. But maybe you laid
a ground work for others to run. I saw you enjoying the Child's Game Beano video. You actually commented Kanye who Yeah. So, But in twenty fourteen, I told y'all right here in this seat about Kanye West, and you know, you asked me about Kanye West kind of re transfiguring the Confederate flag, And I said, you can't do that to something that has so much pain and oppression tied to it. And there's not a political statement that Kanye can make. And the problem there are a couple of
problems with with Kanye West as he stands today. The first is we look at Kanye West politically through the lens of George Bush hates black folk, right, That's the only thing that Kanye West at that point politically has actually gotten right. Everything from that point forward has been a misstep. So that that's first. And second, you look at somebody. I think that a Tony Heasy coach just
wrote it. So it was amazing. You know, I'm not black, I'm Kanye, right, and Kanye is looking for this white adulation. He's made himself right now he is. He is the mascot for white supremacy. I mean, anytime Donald Trump goes on stage and touts you. But Flint still doesn't have water. There are hundreds of thousands of meek mills in the United States of America. You see the instances of police brutality.
It still takes two hundred and twenty five years. If we were to make wealth equal between whites and blacks today to take two hundred and twenty five years for African Americans to catch up. You have systems of oppression and injustice. You're punished because of the zip coach you're born into. And that's just talking about black folk. We haven't even talked about Muslim brothers and sisters who are
being oppressed every single day. We haven't even talked about dreamers who are in this country who don't know if they're going to be ripped away from their family. Um so Hispanic gay, I mean, there's so many vulnerable communities that Kanye West apparently doesn't give a damn about right and the fact that he's not able. He's a grown man and he's not able to see that or not willing to learn about it. Um other than that Google image he put up, Well that's that is the problem.
He just doesn't know, No, Kanye West, is what happens when you don't read seriously, I mean, and he's proud of it. Intellectualism is not cool, like not reading, not searching out your environment. I mean, Kanye West literally said, you know, I don't read. I don't read books like that, you know, And to not be in a state of rage because of the environment around you. Yeah, so I said, Kanye who because there's so many people who are replacing him.
I mean, you think about the coolest part of that of that video, um, And I know t Grizzly was in here earlier, and I think, you know, I was able to talk to him a little bit and he actually grasped it. But the coolest part about that video is the young kids that follow UM. Childish can't be you know, throughout, because what it shows is that the
youth are always following you. They're watching your every move, They're watching your every step, and we just have, you know, thank God for Jacole and Kendrick and all of these other people. And you know, there's a role I guess for Takashi and I don't even know half the other names. Okay, I mean there's a place for him, I name. But we have to get to a point where we can be more conscious. Do you think it's one of those things where he made too much money and just doesn't
see see himself as us anymore? I don't know. I think that he looks for acceptance from other people. I know that he's struggling with the death of his mother. I know that being in Calabasas can change your world. Opioid addiction is real. All those things that Kanye West are going through a really real. But I can't make an excuse for him being a part of the oppressor's team, right, There's no excuse for that. But to this conversation, we were just having one of the things that I'm that
I'm talking about. I'm working with a group out of a group of young black man out of Charlotte called melan In money is the fact that we don't have in our communities. We don't have wealth. You know, when you talk about the fact that African Americans don't have generated. We know a lot of rich people, but we know very, very few wealthy people. It is the I think this is the first generation of black wealth. We're still making
our money. So for example, you look at the purchase of the Carolina Panthers, right, for example, you have to be able to put up eight hundred million dollars in cash, in cash to buy that team. It's a two point five three billion dollars deal. What African American you know, can put up eight hundred million dollars in cash It's coming and still be able to live and still be able to have a business and flourish. I mean you have to take maybe Oprah, Nah, you don't think so nah?
Cash she I mean her net worth is like three billions, said cash liquid, That's what I'm saying, so liquid. I would give her at least a little billy that would then be all her cash. That's true. So I mean that's what I'm talking about. You would have to take Puff and Oprah and this person in Lebron and this person and that person, whereas you have people in this
country who can just write that check. And so we're still we still have to work to get there and make sure that we're investing in doing all of those things proper and doing all those things right. It's coming. I mean they got a four hundred ye heads thought them and this is like the first generation of all like, oh, I'm not wiping us. Yeah yeah, no, they definitely got a head start. But I'm running that race now as well. All right, we got more with Baccari sellers. When we
come back, don't go anywhere. It's the breakfast lookal morning morning. Everybody is DJ m vy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club now we have Baccari sellers in the building. I was talking to my daughter about this just yesterday, and I was talking about legacy and when I want to leave. I was telling them why that's kind of morbid. Why you know, no, not dying, but but yeah as and dying as well. Like I said, I want to create something where they can have something
for themselves. And these are the conversations my dad didn't have with me and my mom didn't have with me. But I'm having with my kids, and they're understanding it more. They're understanding the value of a dollar. They understand why I do certain things and investing certain things and pull money out of certain things. So they're getting it early. So we're putting it in their heads a lot earlier than than we were. That's true. And you know my father,
we're from Denmark, South Carolina. We got three stoplights in the blanking lot. And y'all remember when they used to mail you credit cards. My father would take those credit cards and cut those up in front of us right now. And so I didn't learn about credit because my father was always under the belief that if you don't have it, you shouldn't spend it. You shouldn't buy with something you don't have. So he never had an overdraft. You know, he never had a credit card. He would just cut
him up in front of us. So those are things that I had to learn. And you know, thank god, I have a co parenting system with my wife and my daughter's father is Vince Carter, and so we have a co parenting a new blended family, and we're able to teach her at twelve years old, you know what it means to say, what it means to have credit and those type things. And it was Carter. Vince Carter, you didn't know this. No, when you guys are friends, I think I don't remember this speak all the time,
and we don't speak all we co parent. I mean, he's a good dude. He's like, I mean, he's let me tell you something and that we can move on. But Vince Carter is an amazing father, and so he's an amazing father to Kai, and I get a chance to learn how to be a father to Kai. And so she just has a huge network and so us he still got money, Vince, Yeah, Vince's child. Both Pam's coming on time. All right. I'd like to see my brothers come up. All right, this is a good way
from car to come up. All I'm gonna get a phone call about this now. But he's a great father, and let me tell you, he takes care of his daughter in every type of way possible. So I couldn't ask for a better situation. Right. Why do you think we talked about this a little bit, But why is some of the conservative rhetoric starting to convert some liberals? You know, I think that the first of all, there's
an opportunity over there. So if for example, the DJ Envy wanted to go and reach the pinnacle of success. Do you live in New Jersey, in New York Jersey and you wanted to run for office in Jersey, I mean, there'll be a Republican we can put you in the States Senate right now. If you go up and say, you know, I'm from free thought and small government and conservative ideas, and we get your make America Great hat, and you know we can give you. We can give
you this lane of opportunity. That's first and foremost. But African American men are what I'm more concerned about. I mean, there's a lot of misogyny in our culture. It's a lot of misogyny. They're people right now in our barbershops will tell you they didn't vote Hillary Clinton because she's a woman. They didn't think a woman could be president. Um, there's a lot of ignorance, and we have to do a better job of educating ourselves. And so we're beginning
to do that. But there are there are cracks, and Democrats haven't done their job. Yeah, that's what I feel like, man. I feel like Democrats are so busy just blaming Republicans for everything instead of telling people what they actually want to do. Well, we I mean, yes, we're all we're the party of Donald Trump. Is this instead of telling people what we believe in? Yes, And so you know,
for me, I tell people my task is simple. Um. You know, my mother got diagnosed with leukemian while I was running for While I was running for for lieutenant governor and in Bamberg County, our hospital sat down and one day my mom was walking in the house and she did something that older women or older people should not do. She was carrying grocery bags with both hands, and so she tripped and couldn't break her fall and fell right on her mouth, busted her mouth all open. Now,
I'm a lawyer and my sister is a doctor. My brother is an exact or cells exactly, and so we were able to get a network together, get on the phone, have somebody go pick my mom up. And they had to drive her thirty to forty five minutes to the nearest hospital. Now, what if you didn't have that, You know, what if you're working two jobs at the Savannah Riverside or you only have you know one, one person in
your family who's working diligently. My mom was sitting on the steps just bloodied and bruised, teeth all out and all that type stuff, and so you realize that she didn't have access. And so what I want to do is create access for people, access to a quality education, you know, access to healthcare. They are thirteen year olds in this country, black kids from Harlem all the way down to South Carolina, who have never seen a dentist. Right, that's quiet in school. I thought that was required in
school though. Nah, wow, go see a dentist Dennis and doctor doctor Dennists and maybe not. No, that's that's called who you're from. Nah, we know some of those dudes. No, And so you know you got kids who still um, who's still lunch at school? I know you grew up with some kids who skilled lunch so they can go back and feed their little brothers. And so, I mean, we have real issues, and that's what Democrats need to be talking about. How we how we destroy these systems
of oppression. What do you think the best thing has been? What's the best thing about the Trump presidency so far? Oh, that we're talking about race in a very, very real way. You know, Donald Trump is a racist, absolutely period. But Donald Trump doesn't bother me as much as the good
people who still support Donald Trump. You know, I look at white evangelicals for example, these people who thumped the Bible, Franklin Graham for example, who will turn their nose to the bigotry, the xenophobia, all of those things that they claim to espouse on Sunday, but on Monday through Saturday they want to make America great again. That bothers me. I'm trying to figure out where where that jibs, and it's and it's troublesome. Without Donald Trump, we wouldn't be
having these discussions about race. If Hillary Clinton was president, we wouldn't have we wouldn't be sitting here talking. We would be talking about criminal justice reform, but in a different way. Now we're having a very visceral conversation because you know, race is the race and genocide a slavery in genocide are are the two original sins of the United States of America, and they've never been dealt with. Which next FORCCAR, I gotta yeah, I'm gonna run for
Congress one day soon. Hey, whenever Jim cloud Burn, y'all want to hire Jim up be the fourth member gonna die, y'all bless him. I mean that in the best way, all right. They want to be able to come home talking like that. So nah, no, I love him. He's been a hero. Work for him. So whenever he whenever he decides. I mean, I'm sure to be a lot of people running. I just want to be one of those people in the hat. But until then, just trying
to be a voice every single day. Be a voice for the voice list or a voice for the unheard. And tell him where you can find you got the podcast? I got the podcast. If you point with Baccari sellers Instagram, Man, I'm trying to get my Instagram up the way yours is and stuff. Man, tell them the Instagram, it's Baccari Sellers, b A K A R I sellers, s E L L E R S. All right, well it's Baccari Sellers. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, thank you, the Breakfast
Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Scholamine the guy. We are the Breakfast Club and we got a special guest in the Beldingderella is here. Mama bought it. Welcome and congratulations on everything. Platinum Records, gold album and the baby. What were you more excited about dropping last week? The album or revealing the baby bump? What excited you more? Um? Mostly the album it was like more like a relief. The baby. The baby thing is it was also relieved,
but it's something that it was like nerve wracking. You know, we're trying to hide it and stuff like that, try to hide it, not even just try to hide it. It's just like what people will say, I don't know why. It makes me sensitive. Yea, it makes me too sensitive. Your hormones and stuff kicking in at a different level when you're pregnant and all kinds of stuff. Yeah, yeah, hormones and chemicals and like all kinds of stuff got your emotions out of wack the first couple of months ago,
will you sick at all? Um? Yeah, you got more sickness and all that. Yeah, it was still these shows and start Yeah. Yeah, I think that's amazing that you were working as hard as you have, because you've been working harder than anybody that we've seen, like a lot happening before this album comes out, And I'm like, damn, how was she doing all that? Because I could just
imagine when it to just be laid back and relax. Yeah. Well, you know, um, I know a lot of people invested their time and they swinish oh me, And it's like I just don't. I just don't want to disappoint anybody. I don't want to make anybody feel like it's like damn, but the hell. And you know a lot of people was like telling me like what are you doing? What
are you doing? And it's just like, Okay, I'm pregnant, but I have a game plan, and I just wanted to show people, like not the critics, like mostly people around me, like the people I work with, Like it's like y'all gonna have a job, still gonna have a job. That's a good question. With everything going on your career, did you ever think of not having the baby? I wasn't playing. I mean it might have been playing. No,
it was a it was just one night. It was it was a good name because I know exactly what happened. You remember exactly when you got your club shot. Yeah, because that one night it had it had to be that night. It had to be that name. You know what I'm saying. But but but with everything, did you ever think of, you know, not having a baby? Um? Kind of sort of. And then again it's just like, no, I just didn't want it, to deal with the whole abortion thing. I just didn't want to the regret of it.
Probably yeah, I don't know. I just didn't want to it. And it's just like, you know what, I'm a grown woman. I'm twenty five years old. I'm gonna say it's the most humblest way. I'm a millionaire, you know what. You know what I'm you know what I'm saying, And um, I'm prepared for this. I loove what remy Ma said though, too, because it is true for women, we said men have kids, continue with their career. Nothing stops and for women it's so different. They try to act like, oh, if you
have a baby, it's a height of everything. But it is proof that you can be pregnant, have a baby and still be at the height of everything. Yeah, you know what. It just really um bothers me and it discuss me because I see a lot of women online like, oh, I feel sorry for you. All your career is over, and it's like, why can I have both? Like as a woman, why can't I have both? Like why do I got to choose a career or a baby? Like why can I have both? Yell? Never have to choose?
What aose? The people that's rooting against you anyway, though, so they want to see you fail anywhere. And you absolutely I mean you show it now, you absolutely positively. But it's not even people that like not ruling for me, Like a lot of people around me was concerned, like because I don't think it could happen. This never really happens. And it's that I don't want to wait until I'm thirty suning to have a kid, like I want I want my kid now. I want my kid now that
I have energy and stuff. I really feel I gotta have energy I'm telling you, I think I have what's that thing? Cost? Could write whatever? I'm getting it already. I feel like my finger type too fast. Are you taking the nausea than the medication the pills to not be nauseous? No? Real, No, you don't get more things and stuff? Yeah, but you know I gotta tug it out, stuck it out. How did you tell offset that feel pregnant? How did that conversation happen? Yo? Mad baby emojis Yo,
I'm scared. No, he messed up. You messed up. You know what I'm say? That was a broken he missed uff, broke visionary good. We're good, God were good? He was happy. I'm sure right. I'm excited for you guys. I mean, I just love your success. We've seen the grind and like we've seen it hands on, so some people you
don't get to see boat. We've seen you grind and people doubt, and you put the mixtapes out and and you came to my house to play your mixtape and you did the teen parties to the five hundred people see, to the thousand, to the tenther. How does it feel
to have an album out right? Now? It feels like such a release, you know, like around October, people I was I was like, I'm about to release an album right now because I had like fifteen songs in the stash and everything, and people was like wait a minute, hold on, and it's like hold on. What it's like an album is really special. Album is something that you
gotta take your time on, you know. I just started the music business, the industry, whatever the crap, and I just didn't know the difference between like an album and a mixtape, like what's so important? And then it's just like I feel like I was a little bit overdue when when it comes to the album. But it's just like I wasn't realizing that. It's like I barely had time to go to a studio because I was being overbooked. Like it's like you want an eighty dashing for this show? Yeah?
Does next to? You know, I'm booked for five shows and one week. And then it's just like so many magazines are presenting me opportunities. I'll be damn if I take it. So many opportunities these that has been offered to me, and I just be them if I take it. Next to you know, it's just like, oh, crap. I gotta work on this album, and then it's like it's like I can't wait for me. I can't wait for the summer time because it's like I'm competing with time
and I'm competing with my body. What I like about this album is that it feels like Cardi B. How much control did you take of this album? I know at one point Atlantic was trying to get you to do certain records that you didn't want to do, right, I have full control. I have full control. You know. A lot of people was presenting me hooks, a lot of people was pretending to me be and I was like, you're showing about white Ner. What was your favorite song
on the album? It really depends because I don't know. I really like all of them because they all gave me a vibe. I wouldn't even put it by and like it. I like, I like it, like that, that's my favorite. Now, everybody, they tried to come at you last week about the ghostwriting thing, and I like how you owned it at your your album released party. What do you think about all that? The thing is that it's like, you know, partisan he's not a ghost writer.
He's a cold writer. You know, I credit him. I credit him on all the songs that he'd been in and I even gave him a shout out in the Heart Radio Award and um, you know be Careful song. I heard the song, I was like, oh, I like this. It didn't even had a hood nothing. I just liked that verse thing. And I was like, yo, I wanted this song for me. I like what you're saying. I like the b and then we just we just worked on it. You know, I'm putting my people on. They
make you money. I ain't paying I ain't paying him off and hiding him. He right there. He came to the Grammys and y'all been down with each other. That's my guy, a little part of Yeah, he've been knowing me, shaking my ash and shoes. Ever, my people are like, you know what I'm saying. Like and Atlantic noticed his working skills and noticed his music. They signed him too. No, that's dope, man, that's dope. I wanted that happen. Now they now I know Kyla was sniffing around him. I
didn't know he actually did. That's dope. Why you ain't signing the young lady? You should have started Body Gang Records it's not that it's not that easy there. I can't even I can't even handle my own solf. You imagine me handling another artist like I don't even want to promise people anything, Like I don't want to promise people or anything if I'm not sure that I could give them something, because I've seen people be like, yeah, signed this sign that, and they can't do anything for them.
So it's like, I'm not gonna play myself or play with somebody dreams? How much if the signs on this album? Would you say is about your real life? Like things that you're really doing? Like are you still going through phones and doing all that? I don't even go through phones because I don't want to play with my own damn feelings. You terrible to do because if they say when you look for something, something's gonna happen, well, you know the way the way and the internet is nowadays,
you're gonna find out regard you gotta put. You can't never stop going through the phone, though, you gotta let him know every now and then. I'm still here. Don't think it body changed at all? Okay, Well, you know, you know, like me, I just don't even want to play myself. I don't even want to see something. I mean, there's not really the high because every single time to somebody texting, you'll hear it clean, clean, clean and shar all right, we got more with Cardi B. When we
come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We all the breakfast club. Cardi B's in the building, Charlemagne. Now do you enjoy doing music? This is just like a money play. I enjoy doing music lately, it's been a little so so because I feel like people have made it something that it's so hard to enjoy that people have made it for me like it's a job. At first, it was fun at first, it was just
doing music that I like. Not people have this pressure for me, and people want to put me in the standards that I never asked for or I never called myself the greatest lyrical person. I never said that I'm just this and that, and people just expect so much for me, And this is like, don't expect too much for me, because I'm gonna give you things that if I like, it's because I like, I'm not trying to
be no crazy thing. It's just like nowadays it's like people was like, oh yeah, but your record didn't hit top ten. I don't care. I think it was a good song. It was the problem like it's just gotting so overwhelming that it's just like now I gotta think think thing before I put out a song. And it's that I don't like to think. I don't like that pressure, like that makes it a job. And now I don't want to feel like I'm doing a job. I want to feel like I'm having a good time. I told
you that before. Though, I don't overthink things like you can't you don't gotta make another boat at yellow? But do you miss that intimate, intimate feeling because no one cardy coming up, You were in the crowd, you were touching the kids. But now is you can't there's no way you can do it. Now do you miss that at all? Being intimate with the people and touching them and jumping in the club us and going to the crowd. You miss that? I do miss it. I do miss it.
I do miss my privacy. I do miss a lot of things. Like so many people like don't understand when I say, like when I was a dancer. I was way much happier, and it's like, oh, well, then go back to strip club. I'm not trying to say that. What I'm trying to say it's just like I had like more of a normal life. I felt more free, I had less people judging me as people telling me what to do. It's just now it's just like I feel like I'm a damn pet in the zoo right,
just people looking all day long. Do you think the baby's gonna bring you some normalcy? I don't know, you know what, I've been working and thinking about album and thinking about what I gotta do next that it's like I gotta I gotta take my time to nest. Do we know if it's a boy or a girl? Yet it's a girl. Hennessy slipped. Henessy slipped and said it last night social media. And when she was congratulating you. You know what I'm saying, Why why you are? You are?
You were in my registry because I got I got for registrates, you know, I got registry for the people that can affords her and things, you know what I'm saying. And then I got the registry for y'all know. Yeah, I know that y'all make money in this in this radio stage because this is the most syndicated one whatever that so y'all on that budget, Amazon was paving. We got you, Creer. What has been most exciting for you
so far? Would you say if you had to pick a moment that you were like, this was like the best day ever. Well, when when I had when I did the whole Billboard number one thing that was really special for me. I couldn't I couldn't even imagine that I even hit number one. My goals was to get on the radio and get my things repeatedly on the radio, and they just hitting them but one. And then seeing artists I looked up to or people that I never even think that they know me congratulating me. Even even
the album too. It's just crazy listening to it, and yeah, it just it was really special. You know, Like this month has been the most overwhelming month ever. I felt like my world was ending or something. I was having meltdowns and everything. So with that, how are you handling the backlash you received from social media? Does that make you handle it better? Does the love make you handle all the criticism? You get better? Yes? Because I don't know what it was. I just was feeling down. How
the hell I became the most hated person ever? Every single day? It was just a big backlash. If it's not about my relationship, it's um blogs and damn paparazzi stocking me, trying to find out about my personal life, my pregnancy, then people with the music, and it's just like, damn, it's that people are never satisfied. It's just driving me crazy, like what else do y'all want for me? And then all the positive love that I got from my album is just like, Okay, I just need a chill. How
do you prepare for Coachella? You got Coachella coming up? Ya? How do you prepare for that? Well, on Wednesday, I will be flying in Swell and we're gonna do ten hour rehearsals so that day. Damn, are you feeding anything right now? Food wise? Is there something like you have to have like my wife was into ice cream and cravings? Is there any craving that you need like I need this now? It's not that bad, Donald, So that's that's that's better. I don't know, I haven't really been I
don't really be eating like that. Really, you know you got you eating. Now you gotta feed the baby. I don't know. I just don't feel like overly hungry or anything. I feel. Are you scared to get plump in front of the cameras, That's what it is. No, no, no, okay about that. If I gotta eat, if I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I don't know. I just I guess I'm naturally skinny, or I guess my appetite is just weird. Just like Envy's wife, she had five kids and she
looks exactly the same. Have you decided how much time after you have the baby you're gonna sit down and just focus on that. I'm hoping like a month, three weeks. Don't let them pressure you to get back out there now. I mean it's not pressure, it's just like, I don't know. I just gotta wait and see, because I don't I've never done this before. You're gonna have coming out. You're gonna be blacked hating. You can't just run back out there. Ye put a pattern there. I can't see CARTI be
sitting there for some lis there. I don't see you sitting down like I've never seen you sit down like you all win. You a hustler, like I just don't see I see you popping the baby out and going on the tour, grabbing it in and going like that's what I say here. Um, I just feel extremely hungry for things, especially because I hate saying I hate I hate my mentality. I hate trying to prove people from but it's like I have to prove people that. It's
like a baby won't stop me. Nothing has stopped me before. People didn't thought that I was gonna get here, So how you gonna tell me when? When it's gonna finish it at the end of the day, it was Jesus. Yeah, it is motivating me because I just do not want to disappoint anybody. I just wish that I had a little bit more time for me to think for me. I didn't like that people was just harassing me. I had a whole bunch of friends calling me like that. I can't believe you ain't told me why. I gotta
find out on the internet. You know, I was gonna go to Atlantic, like, listen, y'all, I'm having a baby. But I got this whole plan. Okay, this is what we're gonna be doing every week. I didn't even have the chance to do that because it's called me, like, hey, so we're hearing that you're pregnant, and this is like something that is so precious in private to me, I could even keep it for myself right And it's like I feel like I have given everybody everything they ever wanted.
I've been open. I've been doing videos with no makeup on looking mad, crusty. It's like certain things y'all want for me that it's like, can y'all just chill? Y'all nearly want to be in my day on going to college? Damn appointment y'all want y'all want to see everything? Well, how do you know when to keep things to yourself? Because you have been so public for so long? I
have kept so many things to myself. There's so many things about me that people don't know because I really do choose as open as people think that I am. I really do choose on what I want to be there or not. Right now, a lot of people were pitching to you because they want to do a TV show with Karate and offset. Are you considering doing any of those things? I don't know, because some terms I'd be like no, But then it's like when I see the money, it's like there's a XAM show. Are you
say you're doing Coachella? Are you coming you? No? I think we have different days. Oh okay, okay, okay, I'm not even sure. Did y'all Did y'all do a song together? That was a rumor too? No? No, people what I'm saying. People had just been making things up that's supposed to happen.
It was just an idea that people was just like, you know, when you hear a song and people be like this would sound hot if the person is on it, and people just around you just be gassing things up, and it's just like, it ain't came out of my mouth. So Lauren actually heard to Be Careful Record, right, she listened to it. Yes, you know a lot of people was criticizing me when it came to the Be Careful Record, and it was just like I was just like, damn,
why why people don't like the song? I love this song? And then I was like, wait a minute, it don't matter what these people say. Lauren Harrold proved this song. If if she didn't approve it, I will have to change so much from me. And she approved it, and she very spiritual when it comes to the things, and she approved it. And it's just like I gotta hear
what people say. She sent a message. Wow, how to make you feel It made me feel like super confident at the time, and it made me feel super confident. It's gonna be a good record. That's actually somebody that would be you could have a conversation with about being pregnant stuff, because when she got pregnant around the time when she was really popping off and it was telling her to get rid of the baby, you're about to be a star, whatever, whatever, and she still had the baby. Yeah. Well,
I just don't like talking about it. I don't know why it is. I just maybe it just makes me feel weird. Yeah, because you're a gangster, so you don't want to feel sensitive and stuff. Yeah, you know, like when your mom touches you that's her grand baby. It just makes me feel weird. All we got more with Cardy B when we come back. Don't move. Matter of fact, let's get into a mini mix. Let's play some dope
Cardy B joints. Your favorite Cardi B joints right now is the breakfast Club Good Morning that was a Cardi bat Mini mix Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We all the breakfast club. Cardi B's in the building. Now, have you slowed down as far as clapping back, because at one time you would pull up in an uptown on the bronx and still trying to a bit your if you calm that down a little bit, Yeah, because no, you know what I'm saying.
I just actually got a couple of friends. You got cole friends in hand of that business couples. You still got all that beef in the hood. Yes, because just because of favorites doesn't mean I still don't like them. I was still like you. You ain't trying to be the bigger person and just say, hey, it's all love. We bring y'all together. No, because I know you don't like me, and I'm never gonna like you. Like you.
You have done stuff to me that it's unforgivable. Now I see you also have the collab coming with fashion Nova that was a long time in the making, So you're actually designing your own line. What can we expect from a Cardi B line? Real clean, real stylish, real fashionable, nachacky. You know what I'm saying, It's gonna be really popperlive.
That's why we're taking our time. And I'm putting so many people on my stylist, my sister, you know, she's like a fashion girl, pitching in ideas and everything and then shall come out with the fall. That's because they've been danning with you for a long time, so I know that's big for a fashion over. Also, yeah, and you know, um, they got really good prices. I want things to people for people. Dre's like not that expensive and everything. All these brands be trying to rob people. Well,
what's what's the next evolution of Cardi? Because you came up in the script club, social media, did a little reality TV not of music, what's the what's the next evolution of Cardi? You know what? I really don't know because it's like I feel like, dan what what can I not do besides dance? I don't got damage rhythm, y'all. You know what I'm saying, I got I'm getting so many um deals that I'd be telling myself like I don't think I could do that, and people be like, oh,
yes you can. And there's so many things that I told myself, like, I don't think I can't do this, but I have done it, and it's just like I think I could do, especially for the right price. You don't, but you don't stick around doing things too long though, Like you're staying one thing for a little out and you move on to the next thing. So how long you think you're gonna wrap? I think I'm gonna wrap for a hot minute, you know what I'm saying. I'm gonna wrap into I like into a lie now, I
like money forever. So it's just like I think I'm going to wrap forever. You know what I'm saying it too. But she don't want to get getting it out because even with love and hip hop, they were like, don't leave, you're getting too much. He was like, I'm out. You know what. I never even thought about when am I going to leave? You know what I'm saying, I never really thought about that. I just want to do everything.
Everything that could make me money, I'll do it. And everything that that I develop a passion for, I keep doing it. I have a passion for music, and I'm gonna keep doing it. Like people telling me acting they want to get me into acting. I used to do a little shows in high school. I just don't feel like I'm too good at it now. Maybe if i start getting classes or something, I'll be great in it and I'll probably start doing that. I don't know this.
Just like this, you still got to play the baby shower, You still got to play the wedding patience, you still got to go on. When it comes to the things that that I have plan for work is like I'm almost finished, but then it's just like, oh my gosh, I do gotta plan a baby shower, And it's like, oh, I do have to plan a wedding. But it's just like it's hard to plan a wedding. One It's it's like we're both working. I'm about to go on a
long tour. He's gonna go on a long tour, and I'm knocked up too, Like I ain't trying to have a wedding and not drink. You know what I'm saying, go to a honeymoon and I have like unlimited in your clodes, Like I want to see Cardy when she has the baby, because Cardi is so gangst. I want to see if Cardi when that baby pops out. She's gonna poop on herself too. That's the other thing, Yeah,
because I keep hearing that you poop on yourself. But that's cool thought because me and my dude is closed now, so it's not to deal with it, you know what I'm saying, Like, you gotta have to deal with it. He clean it up? When did you? I don't know? You saying like I was wondering who was that on? Through your phone and I saw you tweet that with you. I used to sing in high school. There's a video
of me singing in high school. But I just don't feel like I'm super great in it, you know, and my voice have changed, you know what I'm saying, smoking, screaming, it's just not the same. It's not as great anymore. But it's just like why not give it a try? Like I mean, I used to win my challengehip I like it. I like I like ballet like hip hop songs too. I like that there's like a nice balance of that because I don't feel like we have enough
of those baladly type of hip hop songs. Those are the type of songs that I haven't I haven't really heard in a while, and I just wanted to bring that element. And it's just like I feel like a lot of people think that I'm just this girl that don't have any type of feelings. Like people just think I'm just a dog bitch or something. So it's just like, Noah, I gotta show you a little shun shine. I don't want you to just think that I'm just not this person to care about things. I just put it on
my music tool. The Chance to Rapper collaboration come about because that look when you see it, You're like they're chancing Cardi. The song. It just felt like it was Chance the rapper, Like it's like I need this on my hook. I need a verse from him, and we reached out to him. He did a verse and it's like, can you please get on the hook though, because this hook it just didn't sound good with me, and he tweaked a lot of it. He was real busy. He was in Australia and he came right back and he
did it. And it's just like me as an artist, knowing how busy you can be forever to take the time and do it. It's just like I'm very grateful, Like it's like, damn, Michelle Obama knows this kid and he getting on my record every artist actually, because it's like I know how busy artists are, and I'm very grateful and if they need a kidney, find somebody to give it to them. Because you don't want my kidney. You want my kidney that you're gonna beard. What about
be careful? Why do you decide to sing that hook yourself? I don't consider it. It's like singing. Do you consider it as singing? Yeah, it's a little bit of I didn't consider as singing. I did it with my regular boys. The only man baby I adore singing is that singing. If you was in the shower, they'd be like, yo, you're singing in the shower again, CARDI. When I sing in the shower, that to me was singing like like I wanted on the hook of that song to feel
like if I'm talking to you. I wanted to feel like I was talking to the guy. I didn't thought it was like singish like. That's why when people was like, oh, why you sing like guys like, I wasn't even trying to sing. I wanted to make it for like an open letter. It's like I need love, kind of like how ll did I need love? But like like wanting to make you feel a little come on, I'm sorry, what your habit? How do you feel when you watch old interviews to yourself? You see the glow up that
we see now no interviews. I'd be like, you know what, they good whatever, it sounds pretty good. When I see old videos of me, I'll be like, damn, my teeth isn't amazing to you? How many young women are so excited to be able to relate to the songs that you're putting out because a lot of girls are like, oh, I went through the same thing. Oh you help me get through a situation with my man, Like those are the kind of comments that I'm seeing cards talking to
me right now. This is so me. This means a lot to me. This album's helping me out through a lot in my life. Yeah, because that that'd be the goal. Like it's like, I know that people gonna like this song because they can relate to myself because my mom for a song that on my album is be careful. Damn she still scaring your pops with that no dinner together? Oh okay, that's always been your m modo. You always
delivered a message. That's why I always rocked you on, even on your I G videos, even if everybody else she's so ratchet, but she always saying something uplifting to kids, you know. I mean, sometimes I want to uplift That's the thing. I just want to do different things that I like at the time because something Sometimes I want to deliver a message, and sometimes I just want you to party with Cardie, Like why why you name that
I'm Invasion the Prophecy. It just came up as a conversation because while I was doing the album, I felt like that's when my privacy was getting invaded the most. Like every single time that I look at the Internet, there was a story about me. There was a story about my dude. It was just getting so ridiculous and so overwhelming that it's just like I am I in this studio and people are making things or still talking about me. I feel like I'm going crazy. Like I
was getting so overwhelmed. It's like I feel like I have no privacy. Like I really feel like I'm a damn monkey in the zoo day everybody's just watching me, and when they just not watching me, they just want to make something of me. When I really got I really got upset when I damn saw somebody with a camera a Papa Rossi and the bushes like bro well in La, in Miami, Wow in La. It was just like no matter which hotel we stayed in, it was just like boom there. I couldn't believe it. That's the
price of fame. You can't pick and choose, you know what I mean. Sadly sadly, you know. And that's why I'd be telling people like everybody wants fame until you have it all right, we got more with Cardi B. When we come back. Matter of fact, we're gonna push the roomors back a little bit and Cardi B's gonna come back, so don't move. It's the breakfast club. God, Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. Usually we do roomors here,
but Cardi B's here. What about family members and friends? As new family members popped up and new friends popped up, there's a lot of friends that I had to get rid of, which really hurt my feelings and it's really hard for me to deal with. And that's the thing that people just don't be knowing things that really be hurting my feelings. And sometimes when it comes to my family, like I get really sad because I just be feeling how certain certain things of me affect them, Like when
people talk bad about me, it affects my sister. I have so many friends that they so hurt and they just be I can't take this. I'm so sad. I cannot see you like this, and those type of things like made me sad, like because it's that I could take it, but a lot of people around me can't take it. They just cannot take me. Well, they know you and they know who you are. So when they hear people talk about something that's not chew it ball, I'm sure yes, And they can't defend me like they
usually can't. They want to go cut somebody with a razor, but they can't do it because they know they'll get charges and they'll reflect off you. They can't handle the ball tway and clapping bag brings more attention to certain things that don't have attention part to it. So if your friends start going in on people, nobody would have ever seen that until the back and forth happens. Yes, it's just It's so crazy how people be wanting you to say something about certain situations, and then when you
say something, they eat you up even more. It's just like woom if you do, doom if you don't. So I just be like, well, I'm just gonna keep things more to myself because I just can't. These people are crazy. How do you know when the cut friends off? Little by little, I find out I'm finding out. I just see people that are just being disloyal. I feel like some people just want to be around when it's beneficial for them. When people just brag or use my name
for certain things, it's just like you gotta go. Or when you would just get called talking crazy about me, you gotta go. Now people A lot of people are especially family, because I know this happens a lot. Asking for money now oh yeah, but it always been like that. You know what I'm saying, Oh yeah, he was making this money in it. Yeah, but you know it now it's just higher, more money as for a car now house,
But they asked for it's higher. But it's just like I can't say no, Like it's just hard for me to say no. One thing. I really appreciated that you talked about was having been a stripper and women in the strip clubs or video vixens. How sometimes if people if they were to say what things guys have done to them, like pull out, did you know for a
magazine cover shoot? And you said, people would judge them if they complained about it and said, oh, this guy did this to me, this guy did that, And people would be like, well, you're host, so what does it matter. But the truth is that all women deserve respect. That's a thing like it's like, oh, well, how you deserve respect when you're not respecting yourself. You're showing your body this and that. Because I'm showing my body doesn't mean
that I want to get touched. When I don't want to get touched doesn't mean that you like some women. A lot of women think, like, for example, me when I was nineteen and I used to be in the train stations and I used to see these girls with red bottoms in the magazine. It's like, Wow, I wonder how much money they're making. They're probably making like ten thousands just to be in the cover of this magazine.
A lot of young women think that certain jobs is a big opportunity for them and it sucks when you're trying to get that big opportunity and this people in the way, like, oh, you want to be in this magazine and they put out their penis some girls who are very young and ninety. When I was nineteen, I wasn't. I was just sleeping with people. I wasn't doing none
of that. And there's just so many people like you want to be in this cover or you want to be in this music video, and it'd be directors, photographers, and it's just it's so crazy. And if and if some girl will say something like in the Urban World, they will say, it doesn't matter because you're a hope. Well you don't respect itself because you half naked and
this this, and that doesn't matter. Like why is it that you gotta harass me to do something that I don't want to do for something that they feel like it's an opportunity. Have they tried you now, as anybody in the music industy tried you. No, nobody has tried me. Nobody trying that. No, not at all. But it's just like it's good that you could speak up for people, because that is true people automatically as still just because
you're work in a ship club. That means I could do anything to you or touch you anyway I want, and you still can't do that to anybody. That's still somebody's personal decision and it's unprofessional. Yes, and people just don't understand, Like it's that you could be a good looking girl, you want to be in this video and everything, but you're not presenting yourself to the person like, hey, I want to be in this music video. What's up?
You're not presenting yourself like that. You just go, there's there's audition for these You're trying to book a job. Yeah, you're trying to book a job, Like there's really audition for music videos and everything. And then it's like there's always that one person to try to sell a dream to this girls. And now I'm not the only I'm not even talking to myself. I'm talking for a lot of girls as I've been there, done that, And that's why I was like, no, this is not for me.
Are you regretting letting people know he was pregnant? You're free. I feel free. People were gonna find out anyways. My body's changing and I have so much work to do. If I could have chose a different way. I wouldn't even let anybody know because I don't want to hear people opinions and I don't want people to make me feel like a blessing should be a regret. I don't want the negative energy on my baby. So when the
baby gets here, are you going to post it? Because you know people gonna have all types of things to say about your baby. I don't think I'm gonna post it for a hot minute, because you know, first of all, babies come out looking weird. I know, but at the beginning they look a little weird. They look like a shave cat, so you know what I'm saying. And second, it's just like I gotta mentally prepare myself first, Like that's why I stopped posting a lot of my family members.
I have to mentally prepare myself for that moment. But we're happy and we are super congratulations on everything, all your success, the singles, multi platinum, the album gold already in a day. I'm putting out a nice cohesive album and feel like all the songs that singles, it took time for me to do each and every song. You know, I have a strong accent and I don't care what nobody say. I'm going to talk how I talk forever. I don't want to change it. I don't want no class.
I don't want no speech class. I don't want nothing. But when it comes to my music, I don't want to hear in my music. So I do things over and over and over and over again. Sometimes I feel like I'm not flowing right. So one song, I could spend about three days in the studio just doing that one song, like be Careful. It took me a hot minute to do, and it just all came out nice. People had to mix each song like three or four times.
The feedback have been great. I can't even believe. First, I'm really happy that the fans and the DJs like it, because this is gonna tell you they sucking up and you projected to sell two undred thousand. Oh, I gotta I gotta find out the numbers today. I don't know what the numbers are. And you want to know something. I'm really new at this whole music thing. I'm little by little trying to find out what it works. I
don't know what's good numbers for one week. I don't know what was good this was good that I'm learning little by little. But I'm already gold and you sold two undred thousand. That's great. I don't know how much I sold. Yeah, we don't know the number projected. It could be more than that. It doesn't matter. You put together a great project and it should be sh Just stay humble. How was Cardi staying humble right now? Well? I mean, I'm just, I'm just I don't know. I
haven't really changed much, you know what I'm saying. I don't know, Cardi B. That's happy for you, happy for all your provcies out right now go get it and thank you for coming through and joining us. And thanks for breakfast. Oh yeah, well you know all right, it's the Breakfast Club's Cardy B. The Breakfast Club. Just don't be a dusty because right now you want some real It's time for Donkey of the day. So if we ever feel I need to be a donkey man, get
it with the hero. Did she get it? Please? I had become Donkey of the Day. Breakfast Club bitches, you're yes, don't get a Dave goes to this young lady named Delaney from Alabama, sleut to everyone who listens to Dustin Birmingham on one or four one to beat and in mobile on one hundred point three to beat. Kendrick Lamar, a young man who I considered the leader of the new school for this generation, was performing at the Hangout Festival in Alabama, and he decided to bring this young
Caucasian Delaney on stage to do a little trap karaoke. Now. Kendrick's first album, Good Kid, Match City features a very tough tune called mad City Now Delaney. I don't know how old she is, but if I had to guess, I would say late late nineties are early two thousands, because only a white person born in the late nineties I'm talking ninety eight to ninety nine or early two thousands would fall for the trap that Kendrick Lamar laid out.
I am absolutely positive that white people of a certain age, you know, they can't say the N word in any context. Right. That has to be a universal white law for every white person who's not a racist are a biggot, right. I mean, if you're a racist, are bigger than the
N word is life. But if you're a white ally, you would never want to offend the black people you ride for, right, Well, when you're younger, you don't see things that way simply because you only know the N word because your favorite black artist uses it all the time, and your favorite black personalities use it all the time, and your favorite black athletes use it all the time. It's in the music that you purchase. So I understand how for a young and you know, the use of
the N word can be confusing. Now, Kendrick bought this white woman on stage and had her sing match City. Let's be clear, this song, match City has the N word in it twenty one times. You know. I know because I had a producer, Daniel count it. Okay, it's four N words in the hook alone. Let's listen to the audio and see how de Laney handled this fair Factor challenge. Basic. Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait? What's up? Bro? What's up? I gotta do
the ruse a little bit. It's just really cool. Bro, you have to work. You gotta bleed one single word though. Oh I'm sorry, Yeah, yeah you did. I'm so sorry. Should she say I'm here? Y'all? I laughed at this so much yesterday because I could hit the confusion in her throat. Okay, I could feel how warm she probably felt on that stage next started to get hot. Okay, what you witnessed in that video was the Snickers Want
to get Away commercial film live. Okay. It's like, Delaney, you have to understand the climate we are in, and you have to understand that, no matter how cool you think you are as a car occasion, you will never be cool enough to use the N word in any context,
even if you are reciting the music from your favorite rapper. Now, I'm not gonna act like I'm not conflicted by this though, because I've seen Kendrick Lamar concerts before, and I've seen a whole crowd of white people singing along to these records, and I've never seen him stop the song to address the crowd and tell the white folks not to do it. And if you know you have the N word in your song, why bring a white person on stage to sing it? Okay, especially a song that got the N
word in it twenty one times four times in the hook. Now, I'm glad Kendrick did that because it brought me a lot of joy as far as getting a great laugh out of it. But nah, bro, not the reason Delaney is getting donkey that did because she didn't know better. Okay. The reason she knew better is because when Kendrick corrected her, she acknowledged her mistake. Let's hear it every time. It's not hard, It's not hard. She not only did she know the world was wrong, she edited herself. Okay, she
knew exactly twittles and words landing in order to edit herself. Okay. What happened the first time was she forgot she wasn't in her car by herself. She forgot she wasn't in her house, in her room with her fringe. That stage was not your usual safe space, Delaney. Now, I don't care what you white people doing the privacy of your own home, but I encourage you not to. The reason I encourage you not to it is because you shouldn't practice bad habits. Okay, saying the N word is a
bad habit. And when you practice bad habits, you run the risk of making the mistake that Delaney just made. Please give Delaney to switch sounds in the Hamletones. Oh no you are dogee, Oh the da doggee. Oh. Even though this young lady is wrong, we do have to start holding some of these artists accountable, right. And the reason I say that is because we don't want white people saying the N word, and let's stop giving them
reason to use the N word. Okay, if that ar ga thing, Okay, if the context, okay, if you can make young white kids call us something, make them call us God's kings, queens, why the N word? Still? Yeah, I'm sure a lot of people watch that video and with an artist in particular, and probably like maybe I
should ease up on that. The thing is, The thing is, if you're an artist and these kids are fans and they buy your music, they stream it, they follow you, and they sing everything, they sing along to it, they don't think there's anything wrong with it because, like you said, they think it's a difference between the er and they don't even know that. All they know is that the context their favorite artists is using it in is usually
in a flattering context. So is she wrong because she's following her favorite artist, she's rappening her lyrics, and she's not using it in a nasty negative way. She's using it like she's wrong because she acknowledged she was wrong, because she actually looked at Kendrick and said, did I say it? She didn't even realize that it came out of her mouth because she so used to practicing bad habits, like I didn't realize that birth just now, but I
kept going. You know what I'm saying. So I think that artists should have more accountability when it comes to just letting the N word flying in music. All right, well, let's open up the few. Can you if I pay for a song, am I purchasing the right to say the N word? I pay a dollar ninety nine for yg My Nigga? Okay, yeah, you should be able to sing it if you if you bought the dirty version, you should be able to say it. All right now? No, no, no, I mean you can listen. It's a fit factor challenge.
You do what you want to do. You got some of the consequences of that act, right, eight black Eye? I don't know one on five one who's at fault in this situation? Right? Is it Kendrick Lamar? Is it? Or is it the lady? All right? Eight hundred five eight five one on five one? Is it Kendrick's at fault? I mean he brought up on stage he said the N word. Yeah, you didn't pick the clearly the whitest
white girl in all of Obama person out there. Someone you could have found one negro in the crowd, Kendrick, Well maybe not, maybe not maybe not all right, but eight hundred five eight five one on five one? Who was wrong? Who's at four? Kendrick of Delaney call us now it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now if you just joined in, Charlemagne gave
a young lady, young white girl from Alabama donkey today. Yeah, her name was Delaney. Delaney got donkey. That did because Kendrick Lamar brought her on stage just singing Match City Match Cities has the N word in it twenty one times four times in the hook, let's hear it? Wait basic wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait my cool enough, what's up? Bro? What's up? Kind of do the rules a little bit? Well? Was just
really cool? Bro. You have to work. You gotta one single word though, Oh I'm sorry, sorry, oh god not. The reason she has to get drunk here to day is because she acknowledged that the word was wrong, and she couldn't even believe that it slipped out of her mom she even asked, Kendrick, did I say it? And then when she redid it the second time, she edited the N word perfectly, So she understands that that's not a word that she should be letting fly in a public,
public place. Maybe she thought it was okay because she was just reciting lyrics. She was trying to her shot exactly, and she tried to get up there, and she seemed a little drunk too, and she just probably just lost her mind. So let's let's open up the phone lines eight hundred five eighty five, one oh five one. Who's at full? Is it Kendrick or Delaney? Now who do you think? Well, first of all, she should know better, but clearly she didn't. Should she though, yeah she should.
I mean, all you gotta do is if you have social media, you watch the news, you know people who are black. Maybe she doesn't have any of those things. Maybe she knows somebody that's black, and she uses around her black friends because afterwards she was able to sensor herself and with no problem. Right, But she's buying Kidrick song and she's reciting these lyrics like a dollar ninety nine is enough paying and say the N word? That
what she's saying. I look at it like, if you don't want people saying the N word, then then don't say it because your fans, your fans are gonna follow you regardless. Yeah, especially in your art. You know what I'm saying. I feel like artists should be be held a little bit more accountable if we don't want white people saying the N word, and let's stop giving them reasons to use the N word, okay, like we can if we can make young white kids call us something,
make them call us god. He might have to get kids and queen first, like when he brings people up. All right, now we have but it's not even it's not even a little stage though. He doesn't, you know, when people buy the songs and that's what they do. You know. I just think we don't realize how much we're hypocrites and how much we contradict ourselves. Because if we say things like the N word is okay now and we've changed the context of it, shouldn't that mean
that it's changed for everybody? You can't still get upset when you hear a white person said, if the context of the word has changed, let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this Kiki? Who do you think was that fault? Kendrick or the young lady Delaney? Definitely? D Why definitely? Because you got N words. See, you just did it too in your song, all through the song, over twenty times in your song. How can she? How can she
not say it? You should have pulled the black person on the stage, or if it was even one black person on it, I mean on the audience. You should have pulled that one black person. I pull a white person. Affair man. When they said, well, she did edit herself the second time though, Yeah, okay, hello, nobody stupid. You know, when the edit the song, it don't matter the word was the N word or the word was the B word. You know when when edited? So why she didn't do
that from the beginning? Why she didn't do that from the beginning? Then in a show just paying my money, I've brought your suite. I'm I'm hyped, I'm not I'm editing. That's right. So what's the talk about. I didn't know it was a price on saying the N word. All I gotta do is buy a song and buy a concert ticket? Hello, who's this ry? Hey? Erry? Who was wrong? Kendrick or Delaney. Delaney might say that because, um, a lot of Caucasian people know what they're not supposed to say,
and they use that excuse up. Oh well it was in the song, and oh well, I was just saying that, and it was a slip of the tongue. Now we're old enough and we already know this has been going on for years. You shouldn't say certain things and she should have known better. All right, thank you, mama, eight hundred five eight five one on five one, we're talking. Kendrick Lamar brought a white girl on stage to do his song and she said the N word. Who is wrong?
Who's at faul Kendrick or the young lady Delaney? Call us Now, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now if you just joined us, Charlomagne gave this young woman from Alabama donkey of the day. Now, Charlemye, why do you give a dunky today? Yes, Delaney Delaney got dounkey today because Kimdrick Lamar bought her on stage
to perform Mad City. Mad City is a song off his first album that has the N word and a twenty one times has it four times in the hook let's hear it? Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait en what's up? Bro? What's up? I got to do the rules a little bit. Well, it was just really cool. Bro. You have to work. You gotta bleat one single word though. Oh I'm sorry, Yeah you did. I'm so sorry. Now. The reason I had to give her a donkey is because she acknowledged that the word
was wrong. She didn't even know that the word swipt out of her mouth, and when she performed it the second time, she edited herself perfectly. She forgot that that stage was not a safe space. She realized she wasn't at home in her room. She realized she wasn't in her car, but she realized it a little too late. But the problem is is if I'm a fan of you, and I buy all your music and purchase all your music,
I'm gonna sing the lyrics exactly like you do. I'm not thinking about what I gotta sense to myself who might be watching, especially if I'm in Alabama and the crowd probably looked just like me. But that was interesting to me. Too, because I've seen Kendrick lamar contracts where white people who have all men chanting the N word, and he's never stopped the crowd to be like, yo, y'all can't do that. But I stopped the girl on
stage standing next to him with the night. I think it was because from there, I think the reaction of the crowd. I don't think Kendrick would have stopped her if the crowd didn't react in a in a wild way. But once again, this is just another example of why the N word will never be a positive word. And I don't know why we keep trying to make it that, because if it was such a positive word, and the context has been changed all across the board, we wouldn't
care who uses it. Let's go to the phone line, Nicole, good morning. Hey, Hey, who was at fault? Was it Kendrick or was it the young lady de Landy? To be honest with you, I really feel like he was dead wrong. Why because if it was me, if it was me and I was her occasion and you were laughing at the mirror thought and and I'm gonna stage and you invite me on stage as a you know, I'm a dedicated fan like I love you, I'm you invite me on stage and next she's one of the
moments of my life. And you didn't tell me a before time that if I said, you know the bird word, that you you know if you were gonna invite me on stage and ask me to recite your song, sing it just like you know that. I'm a dedicated fan because I'm gonna say every bird for bird for bird. So listen, we're in Charleston, right, We're in the eight four three. A white girl come on stage. She starts singing, mister Taylor, I'll shoot that you're right now, man, Taylor,
so real? You know where to go on for Charlotte. He's like, oh, get mad at her, hard teller, mister Taylor. Fans flocking people now, I don't forget my son Zack on the track. Go check come out on it on Instagram. I got a Tuggle baby now four three all days FU to my guy, mister Taylor. Man, my goodness, Hello, Hello, Hey, who's this Hi? This is Myra, Hey Mara, what do you think about Kendrick? Was Kendrick at full or the
young lady Delany? Honestly, I really think that Kendrick was at fault because we are so caught up in black and white and we're turning it always racism, and sometimes it is true. White people do think they're just cool. And Kendrick knew that his song had the N word in it, so he knew that she was gonna go along with the process. And I think that she was just more so being genuine with her song rather than trying to call us out of our name and degrade up. Oh no, no, no no. But I don't think she
was being racist at all. That's that's not even a conversation. I don't think she was being racist at all. That's not even the point. Is this the point of a white woman, a white person who gave her donkey of the day, And of course she's white, but Kendrick should have never let her say the song. Well, the reason I get if her donkeys because she acknowledged that the word was wrong. And she even said to Kendrick, oh my god, did I say it? So she knew that
the word was wrong. If she didn't know the word was wrong, only because only because he stopped her, he tried to portray that in saying that. So that's why but if as a crowd would have went along with it, he would have went along with it. She wouldn't have thought she was that wrong thought because she was having a good time. I agree with that. I agree with you on that. I do agree with that. I feel like if the crowd that, if the crowd that went along with it, I think he'd kept going to Yeah
for sure, for sure? All right, baby, well thank you? All right. What's the moral of the story. The moral of the story is, man, we do have to start holding some of these artists accountable. We don't want white people saying the N word, then let's stop giving them reasons to use the N word. Okay, We're gonna make young white kids call us something. Make him call us
what we are, which is God's kings and queens. God damn it, I called king nah YouTube babes that would be called the king and no lights kin people in what kind? I don't know if you noticed that or not. Did you notice that there was no waffle colored negros on the queen shut up? Ain't no light thing queens and will Condoe bro, you know that would be dope. If they got a brown paper bag test to get into wakondo that would be so dull man
