We do it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm the hunger that knows a little bit
about everything and everything. Yeah, the little brown girls look at you and go, I wanna be like you. Take me through that, take me through that. When she gone, the latest with normal stuff. Take me through that, take me through that. On that breakfast club. Hello cool, man. Hey, talk, talk to me. So real quick, I wanted to, Charlie, my last hour you had mentioned the Oscars and Centers and what that would look like. I did want to make sure that we said, because we didn't get to say last hour, that Michael B. Jordan winning the award that he won last night when he took home the best smell, best smell performance in a leading role at the SAG or actors awards. A lot of people didn't predict that he would win that. So it was like an upset Timothy Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ethan Hawke and Jesse Plimmons were also in the category. So that shake up is supposed to be a big part of the reason why the Oscars, centers may be set for the Oscars. And Michael B. Jordan himself who's nominated for best actor leading role, which is his first Oscar nomination. Now people are thinking that he might take the Oscar home. So I did want to mention that he too.
I love him, I love to see him in the category with a lot of other good nominees too. So that's what he said. Yeah, he said too, he was surprised. But yes, now last week, we talked about a power from Wu Tang and him passing away, his family posted a joint statement where they just sent out some words from the family, but they revealed his cause of death. They revealed that he passed away from pancreatic cancer. They say he was a true fighter until the end and he was surrounded by his mother, his children, his family and his closest friends. And then they go into some of the background with him and Wu Tang and him being one of the founders and the business minds behind the brand. But yeah, and they talk about some of the wake and the funeral plans that will happen later this month, but a little update there when it didn't happen. Rest in peace, follow him, rest in peace. Yes, and yesterday, over the weekend, and then yesterday, Dawn Staley, the coach of South Carolina's Women's Basketball Team. You already know. Yeah, I saw you was at the games and that was last weekend, right this weekend. Yeah, I went to the, we'll game with that Missouri. They played Missouri, I think.
I'll see you last Thursday. Well, Dawn Staley posted on X. Her first suite was on the 28th, so that was Saturday. She posted, please, asking for prayers for some of their former players because they are stuck in a war zone in Israel. She says we were working on the plan to get them home. Let us pray for our loved ones to return home safe and ASAP. Thank you in advance. And now the players that she's referring to Tiffany Mitchell, Destiny Little 10, and Micah Herbert Herring Herrigan. They're players in, they play basketball in Israel. And when everything happened over the weekend with the attacks on Iran, they were kind of put in a really tough position. One of the players, her name is Destiny. She's actually been actively tweeting just to let people know she's okay, talking about everything that's happening. What she's seeing, when injuries come up, she's like, look, we're good, we're alive and we're safe for now. So they've been keeping people updated via X. So sending some prayers to them, and I can't imagine. Yeah. You're not even, you don't even really know what to do, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, that is, that's crazy. It's getting, and the thing is, a lot of players are playing over there.
I see a men's team as well, stuck it as well. So just praying for everybody to get back safe. And it's almost like in those countries, they treated like, I guess, how we look at Herrigan's because I see them say they're going to shelter, shelter hand. Yeah, and I thought, so Destiny was tweeting. She was saying that it's 10 p.m. and we had been siren-free and boom-free of the sound for the last couple of hours I'm praying it continues this way. Then she talked about them getting it to like a safe space or a place for 20 minutes, which was the longest that they've been in like whatever the space was. And I'm like, having to figure out that out, but people were responding to some of the tweets, even that Don Staley put up. And I saw a Don Staley respond to it asking, well, why would they be over there anyway? And I'm like, right now, that's what y'all are. Like, that's the response. Well, first of all, I see that. I didn't see that when they were- Do you want to know? No, they weren't there. They weren't there, they weren't there. They have to make them believe. Whatever reason they didn't make the WNBA, so they're playing professional overseas. Oh, they played both. Yeah, two of them were playing the- I know. You know what I'm saying? He just like, why are- They're playing professional basketball. Basketball. Yeah.
They're playing professional basketball over there. A lot of players play over there. They make a lot of money and they do well. So that's the reason why they weren't there. That's why stuff like the unreliable league. That's why this new deal with the WNBA is doing what they'll be getting paid more money. That's watching monsters shift. That's why all that stuff is important. So, you know, they don't have to play twice. Take those risks. Yeah, absolutely. You can't imagine. Definitely risky. Well, and another update we talked about this last week as well, Teddy Riley and Keith Sweat. There was a conversation that happened on the We Are Miammy podcast where Teddy Riley talks about not making any money, except for like $1,500 off of everything he's done. Music-wise with Keith Sweat. Now, Teddy Riley posted an apology. I was actually communicating with them. We were going to do it like where he gave it to us, but he posted it to Instagram, but then he took it down. But we have it. Listen to Teddy Riley apologizing to Keith Sweat. I want to apologize to my brother, Keith Sweat. If anything that I said was taken the wrong way, of course, confusion or hurt to his family or anyone, I apologize. Keith and I, we built a culture. We built a sound.
We built a new Jack Sweat. We are the pioneers of that. The bond that we have is bigger than anything in any headlines or misunderstandings. My comments were solely about the record label. Ventatainit, Venson Davis, along with one of brothers, who house the Ventatainit label and the Keith Sweat make it last forever. It's the record label is not Keith Sweat. Why does the one that's taking sound? I have no idea. He posted it like that. He posted it like that. I have no idea. I think because it was so long, like we didn't play the full. Because it was so long, I think maybe he was trying to speed it up so you could listen to all of that. Yeah, from posting the hype as well. Yeah, and then it was taken down. I don't know if they took it down because of the way it sounded or what, but the apologies no longer on it. It sounded like he about to take over the world with Pinkie. What's up with him? I don't know why he posted it like that. But whatever the speed was, it was like Puck Plus 5. Yeah. I should have prefaced that. That wasn't us. It was the way that he was producing. The producers got to stop thinking about everything with a producer here. Right. I can post a goddamn video. You know what I'm saying? Let me post this and speed it up just a little bit.
There's no blue, put a little pitch on it. Like, no, just got them. Say what you got to say and keep it moving, Teddy. I thought it was my Instagram at first when I first said it. Because I was talking like, what the hell is going on? Like, he posted it like that. Yeah. What about Keith Sweat? Did he say anything? No. Keith Sweat hasn't said anything publicly. But I did talk to him prior to all of this. And, you know, he just wanted everything to be cleared up. That was Keith Sweat's biggest thing. Like, this thing is to be cleared up even if he had to do it himself. But he didn't want to. So I think, you know, that was Teddy Riley trying to do it. But again, it's not there anymore. And I'm not really for sure why. But yes. Can I tell people something too, man? I want y'all to go to vote.rockhard.com and vote for the rock and roll hall of fame. Inductions for 2026. Okay. Because, you know, they have some great, some of our legends. Some of our legends are, you know, up for, to be inducted this year. New addition, Wu Tang clan, Luther Vandraus, Lauren Hill, Mariah Carey. I'm missing somebody right now. That must be crazy. Mariah Carey is not.
Did you say Lauren Hill already? You said Lauren Hill. That's why I'm talking. Phil Collins, there's a lot of people nominated. But you can go to vote.rockhard.com right now and vote. Because, you know, you got, they got fan votes. And then they got a board. And then they got a whole other committee. And yes. I don't know who you might have missed from this. But I saw you post yesterday that the new addition or somebody, numbers were climbing on the votes. No, no, no, no. Which I thought was fire. Yeah. Nothing went up to when I looked there earlier. All right. Good. When we first talked about this, I know you said it wasn't as much as it should have been. So it's been climbing. Yeah. I need to see new addition. And we'll tell you clang it in this year. You know what I'm saying? Like really for real for real. So go to vote.rockhard.com. All right. Yes. Happy birthday, Method Man. Yes. Hey. Happy birthday. You know what I'm saying? What a good. Yeah. We're going to get some effort to mix this morning. So it's a little to Method Man. Yes. And in the next latest, we'll be talking to you guys about a shallow buff in gay men. I love Charis. I love you. I love you. I love you. I'm so much of that video. I'm mad. I love you.
I love you. I watched that video way too many times. We love you. We'll talk about it next time. That's terrible. Now Charis, man, will you give me your donkey to man? Four after the hour. We need the president of the United States of America. Donald J. Trump that coming to the front of the congregation. We like to have a world with him. Wow. All right. We'll get to that next.
