And also if other people feel compelled to want to feed people that are on house and help people from the country where they're from, you should definitely do that so when we see people like you doing it, that inspires others.

Speaker 8I saw that too, and you said, Okay, he made a post about doing gay stuff for the first time.
Speaker 1Is that what we're talking about.
Speaker 3No, it's something about ice cubes, but we'll talk about that later.
Okay, I don't even understand this, but anyway, let's get into Carti B.
She has announced that she is getting out on the road to sell her album.
We've seen different videos of her.
I saw the corner with the incense trying to sell her album fun Now.
She's also saying, this is my last chance to sell this album, so I don't get sent back to the strip club.
Speaker 4Meet me there, she's.
Speaker 3Doing all of these different in store promotions, and here's what she had to say.
Speaker 9Here, ye hear ye, go to the imaginary players music videos.
Speaker 4Atlantic Breakers have done some deduction to.
Speaker 9My album's budget, and the new budget is fifty dollars.
So go to the fact that the budget is fifty dollars for my album, I have to go on the road and sell the CDs and vinyls myself.
Speaker 3True, it's bigger than the budget we have here, So good for her.
Carti b also was recently on The Jennifer Hudson Show and talked about wanting to have more kids.
Speaker 4You think you're going to have more kids, Yes you are.
Speaker 9Oh yes, It's like the more kids who have, the less of a possibility you go to like a home, one of them is gonna.
Speaker 4Wipe my butt.
Speaker 1I feel like I'd be best friends to Cartie in my head.
Speaker 3That's a hilarious, very practical reason to have a whole bunch of kids.
Speaker 1No, she's right, I don't want any, but she's right all right now.
Speaker 3Offset in the meantime was stop by TMZ and they were talking about his new album, which, by the way, his new album is pretty good.
I just feel like it's not really getting the credit that it deserves.
And he's been saying now he wants peace with Cardi d We'll see how long that lasts, but hopefully they do get to that point.
But he was actually quite nice when talking about Cardi's new music.
Speaker 10Hey, yeah, your kid's gonna have both their parents nominated for Album of the Year.

You guys gonna go up against each other, maybe, no problem.
A man, all push to win.

Speaker 1Yeah, at least being cordial.
That's good.
Speaker 3And the truth is, y'all do have kids together, and so yeah, kids are forever.
You're gonna have to cross paths and you have to think about one day your kids will see things and be like you said that about my mama, Like you know you said that about my daddy.

That would be huge.
You know, he's been headlining a lot of things, obviously the Super Bowl halftime show.
A lot of outdoor festivals.
He does his own thing too, went on tour with Sizza.
It only makes sense for him to be one of the headliners at Coachella.

We love you MESSCOTTI labou.
Speaker 3All right, well let's get into some et who everybody woosa Charlie Sheen, his new Netflix documentary aka Charlie Sheen is out right now.
It came out on Netflix today.
I never thought I would care this much about Charlie Sheen and like his life, but he has had a fascinating.
Speaker 1He has had the life of a life.
Speaker 3And so we do have some highlights for you in case you are not going to watch it or haven't had a chance to see it, this is going to make you want to see it.
One thing that he talked about in part one is passing on playing the role of the Karate Kid.
Speaker 4I was offered the lead role in the Karate Kid.
Speaker 12So I took it to my dad and I said, hey, man, I got this thing and it's a life changing opportunity.
And he said, well, there's a problem here.
You gave this other company your word.
I said, yeah, but it is forgettable, and it's a thing, and it's like eight lines.
He said, none of that matter.
Your word in this business is going to carry you a lot further than one big movie.
So we politely told the Karate Kid people that if they could wait two weeks, I'm all in, and they said they couldn't.
Speaker 3So he passed on that rope, but he did say that he felt like it could have possibly pitched on him.
Now in addition to that, he talked about something that he did.
I've never heard of this, but when I tell you, I was tired today and I went to the ice machine in the kitchen after I watched this part of the documentary and I was like, I'm awake.
Now here's what he had to say.
He did he was literally falling asleep on set.
Speaker 12I was in Montreal and I was shooting this movie called Free Money, and it got to the point where I literally could not keep my eyes open.
The director kind of spotted it, he says, he looked like, you're falling asleep on camera.
I said to him, I need a glass of ice.
There was a little bathroom and I went in there and I took an ice cube and I shoved it up my and man, I was wide awake.
Speaker 4I didn't know that works.
Speaker 8Now everybody knows that it would work, But I also don't know if I would have told that story.
Speaker 3I would have kept that and the your but is leaking water like as you're yeah, I mean, come on, what are you gonna do with the whole back of your pants?
Speaker 4As well?
Speaker 1I would have kept that story to the.
Speaker 3Great But this can help other people who may be tired.
If you're at work right now, you're tired, go to the kitchen.
But there's a lot to this though.
I mean, he talks about his addiction.
He's now seven years sober, and you know he two and a half men.
They talk a lot about that and how much money that was making the network and the people that were around that were really enabling his behavior.
He's also now cordial with his ex wives all of that.
They're both in the documentary, by the way, so make sure you check it out.
Speaker 4I'm gonna watch the whole thing.
Speaker 1It sounds crazy.
I'm gonna watch it too when.
Speaker 4We come back.
Speaker 3We have under the radar.
These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines.
They're flying under the radar, but you need to know about them anyway.
Listen, we got to talk about The Conjurer, and y'all know, I love, love, love that series.
It's like the most successful horror franchise ever.
Well, you can own a little piece of the Conjuring if you dare.
Speaker 4We'll tell you how.
It's way up the news.
Speaker 2News.
Speaker 6This in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.
Speaker 4Way up by Angela.
Yee, I'm here with my guy, I keen Wood.
Speaker 1What's up?
Patti Labelle's best friend.
Speaker 3She listened Leapie is Patty.
She just walked in here and a keen Meta for the first time.
Speaker 1I love Patty, She's so sweet.
Speaker 3All right, let's get into some of these under the radar stories.
So the farmhouse from The Conjuring, you can actually buy that is headed for auction on Halloween.
Speaker 4It's in Rhode Island, and.
Speaker 3It's an antique farmhouse that has become famous for historical paranormal sightings and activity.
In twenty thirteen, Warner Brothers released The Conjuring, which was based off of true paranormal events that occurred at the subject residence with the Paraan family in the seventies.
So there's no starting bid listed yet for that farmhouse.
Speaker 4We should get it, girl.
Speaker 1No, people stay trying to play the devil.
I'm good, all right.
Speaker 3Well, the Conjuring TV series is currently in development.
Speaker 4Have they taken a big step forward?
Speaker 3They have found out now Nancy Wan is going to be the writer, executive producer and showrunner, and both Peter Cameron and Cameron Squires are going to write on the series.
So they talked about this a couple of years ago.
It was reportedly in development, but now it's really happening.
Guys, and I gotta go see the last Rites.
That's the last Conjuring in the series.
Speaker 1Nope, I don't do scary movies.
Speaker 4We will, all right.
Speaker 8Now.
Speaker 3A man has allegedly jumped off of a Royal Caribbean cruise ship not want to pay his sixteen thousand dollars gambling debt.
Heey Gonzalez Diez was on the Rhapsody of the Seas near the port of San Juan and Puerto Rico when this incident happened on September seventh.
He was arrested in charge with the Federal Crime and they did bring him to the shore by two jet skis.
So you know you can't avoid paying your debt by jumping off of it.
Speaker 4You could have died, sir.
Speaker 1Now what did you think was gonna what happened?
Speaker 8Like, you don't think they have censors and stuff like that to tell when someone has gone overboard.
Speaker 3But also you're either gonna die or get rescued.
Yeah, though both of those are not good.
Like getting rescued.
Now you're facing up to five years in prison and a fine of up to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars if you're found guilty.
Speaker 8On top of the sixteen thousand year old the casino.
Speaker 3Yeah, so you know, who knows what's gonna happen?
And get ready for that new iPhone.
I just want to say they did have their event, the Everything Apple event yesterday, and we found out there's an iPhone seventeen, an iPhone Air, iPhone seventeen Pro, and iPhone seventeen Pro Max.
And there's also a major redesign of the iPhone, the biggest one in years.
There's a thinner model that's the iPhone Air and according to the CEO, Tim Cookie said, it's the biggest leap ever for iPhone.
I saw Samsung kind of making fun of them, you know, for that.
They said, I can't believe some people had to wait five years for sleep Score.
Speaker 4Anyway, they said, welcome to the party.
Speaker 3Sleep Score is like that Thinner model.
You know, it's just the sleep model the iPhone seventeen Air.
Speaker 4So I guess they're saying, oh, Dan.
Speaker 1Saying he got something to say.
Speaker 8No, the sleep score is like the technology that tracks your sleep, how well you slept, yourrima.
So that's part of the new Apple products.
Has Samsung always been doing that?
Yes, I hate to see it happen.
Speaker 3Well.
Samsung also said, I can't believe this is still relevant, and they said, let us know when it folds.
Speaker 4Remember they said that before.
When you know there's such a there's such a battle for that.
Speaker 1I love my little and joy.
Speaker 4All right, well that is your under the radar.
Speaker 3Now.
We do have the Way Up mix at the top of the hour.
Plus we got a special guest joining us for Wealth Wednesday, the owner of Daniel's Leather Nading why he You're gonna love his story.
Speaker 4It's way up.
She's like the tout like.
Speaker 10They Angel Jean, like they and Jeli Jean.
Speaker 2She's spilling it all.
This is yeaty way up.
Speaker 4It's way up with Angela.
Yee, I'm here, Keen Woods is here, what's up?
What's happening?
Oh man, this Tyler Perry.
Speaker 3These accusations are you know, you've got it.
Derek Dixon recently sat down with ABC News with Lindsay Davis and talked about alleged sexual encounters with Tyler Perry.
And he feels that, you know, he's saying that he was allegedly assaulted, and in this interview he's talked about this before, but this is his first televised interview that he's done.
He talks about an incident where he says that Tyler Perry got into bed with him and he ended up having to jump out of the bed.
Speaker 4Here's what he said.
Speaker 13I got into bed and then I noticed that he'd hung in the bed with me as well and started rubbing my leg and I jumped up out of bed, and he said, you know, turn around so I can look at you, and and just commented on how I looked, and then he.
Speaker 2Got up and left.
Speaker 13So I thought, after that instance, it was pretty clear that I was not interested in that type of a relationship.
I thought it to stop after that, and it didn't.
Speaker 4Now he is on that he was on that show, The Oval.
Speaker 1Well, is he off the show?
Speaker 4Yeah, he's not on that show anymore.
Speaker 3And here's what he had to say about what happened to his character after he'd turned down these advances.
Speaker 5Allegedly, at the end of the second season, Dale gets shot in the chest four times.
Speaker 13What it meant to me was if I don't make him happy, I could stay dead on the show.
Speaker 5And the complaint specifically says, and I just want to quote it, mister Perry made it clear to mister Dixon that he would kill off mister Dixon's character if he did not indulge mister Perry's sexual harassment.
Was that message clear to you?
Speaker 13For me, that was his way of showing his power over us in our careers.
Speaker 1Leave it to a gay man to be that dramatic.
Speaker 8That's the most dramatic thing ever to kill you, to get you stopped four times and be like, hey, we could bring him back, but you.
Speaker 3Got to act right right, And these are allegations.
Now, Another thing that Darrek Dixon is saying happened is that he also talks about a time where he you know, I was still trying to build this friendship that he was hoping would result in more acting work with Tyler Perry.
Speaker 4Here's what he said.
Speaker 13There was this health monitor scale and I was like, what is that?
And he said, well, you have to be in an underwear to measure you know whatever, so you should do it.
He reached down and pulled my under her down and grabbed my ass and I tried to stop him and pulled back my underwear up and he kind of grabbed my arms and said no, no, no, it's okay, just go with it.
And I said stop.
I don't want to be naked.
I don't want this, and he was just like, no, no, I'm not going to hurt you and just continued.
Speaker 4All right.
Now.
Speaker 3To be clear, Derek Dixon is suing Tyler Perry for sexual harassment for two hundred and sixty million dollars.
Speaker 4That's what that lawsuit is for.
Speaker 3And he's also said that he doesn't want this to happen to any other actor, so he wants to expose all of this.
Speaker 13Now.
Speaker 3As far as Tyler Perry, they're saying this whole thing is a scam, and his team is denying these allegations and saying that it is basically extortion.
Now here is what else Derek Dixon had to say about money about about the extortion.
Speaker 5They described your actions as extortion.
Were you looking for money to buy your silence?
Speaker 14No?
Speaker 13I think I was looking for accountability to what he did.
It needed to be something that would deter him from doing this to somebody else.
Speaker 4All right, So that's basically why he's saying he's doing this.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean, I love you, believe.
Speaker 4Him what you do?
Yeah, okay, I think.
Speaker 1I mean, I mean, listen, have you.
Speaker 4Heard things about Tyler Perry?
Speaker 8But I have not.
I'm not gonna say I have.
But that seems like I mean, I don't know if he's making up.
I mean, I don't know if he's making I don't want to say he's everything he says it's true, but I don't think everything is fabricated.
Speaker 3Tyler Perry, Okay, he's a gay man, I don't allegedly because I don't think he's ever said that.
Speaker 1Okay, right, yeah, I'm gay.
Speaker 4Stop you said that.
Don't do that.
Don't do that now.
Speaker 1I got a wife and kids at home, y'all.
Speaker 4But in addition to all of this.
Speaker 3You know, Derry Tix is saying he had a script and a show that he that Tyler Perry said he was going to do for him, produced for him and owns the rights to.
Speaker 4And now I guess that's probably dead in the water.
Speaker 1Yeah, I don't know why you'd make it up.
Speaker 8I mean, I get trying to get money, like I get that this I mean, but like, I don't know.
I think both of them was lying about something.
I don't know if maybe Tyler wasn't as egregious as this dude is saying.
Speaker 1But I don't think Tyler.
Speaker 4But we just don't know.
Speaker 1We don't know.
Speaker 3You're Yeah, all we can do is you can just say you're feeling but we have no idea.
Speaker 1You'll re speculate.
All right, Well, don't shake to Tyler.
Book me, baby, forget it now.
Speaker 3Well that is your yee tee when we come back.
Ask Yee eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty.
Any question you have, We're here to help you, help you out again.
That's eight hundred two nine fifty one fifty Call us up.
Speaker 6Ask Yee is next everybody since with its relationship for career advice Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 4You should know this is ask what's up this way?
Put Angela?
Yee, I'm here.
Speaker 3I Kem Wodge is here with me today?
All right, Well, we have someone on the line today who wants to remain anonymous.
Speaker 4Now what is your question today for ask?
Ye?
Speaker 14I have a daughter who's in their twenties and we do not have a good relationship.
He's not willing to give me for the past.
The little orange.
We can have a better relationship.
I'm really thankful she's able to allow me to have a relationship with my grandchildren.
There's a lot of animosity.
I'm a better mom to her youngest soloings than I was to her, and she's got her feelings about that.
I don't know how to fix it on my own.
Speaker 3So you know that's hard because and I know people who when they had their first kid, they just were not ready to be a mom, so they made a lot of mistakes that they beat themselves up over.
Speaker 1How many kids do you have?
Can I ask?
Speaker 14It's six?
Speaker 1Okay?
Are you and you're closer to the younger ones?
Speaker 14Yes, brother and I we have a good relationship.
He has her feelings about the past, but he's also forgiven me.
She said she's forgiven me, but whenever she's upset, everything comes back, which is how I though she really hasn't.
Speaker 3Right and you've taken accountability for the fact that you know, you definitely messed up a lot when she was younger, and these are things that she's never really dealt with.
Speaker 4Has she spoken to anybody?
Speaker 14I don't know if she's spoken with anyone or not.
I would love to maybe go to count plaint together.
Speaker 3Maybe she needs to talk to someone on her own first so she can kind of sort through her feelings and what is it is that she needs, because I also think patience is important.
This is something that's not going to be an easy fix at all, So I think first she probably needs to talk to somebody with no one else around, somebody who doesn't know you, doesn't know the situation.
You know, doesn't know the situation, and can give her certain tools and insight that she may not know about before you guys do it together.
Speaker 14Okay, that's all brave ife, thank you.
Speaker 3There's so many issues that she may be blaming herself for certain things.
Speaker 4She may be blaming you.
Speaker 3You don't even know the de to what it is that there's probably things you don't even know about her that she's been through that she's maybe never even shared with you, And so maybe that means somebody who has the tools to be able to help her move forward and be able to at least start the healing process.
That's the type of person and help that she needs right now.
And then when she feels like she's able to express herself and understand why she feels the way that she does, that could be a good step toward you, guys now having those harder conversations and really really healing instead of saying I'm okay, but not being Okayla, thank you forgiveness.
When someone forgives you, that doesn't mean that everything is okay and now we can sit down and kick it.
Sometimes that means, you know, I acknowledge what you did and I'm freeing myself from that burden.
Speaker 4But she's clearly not free from that burden.
Speaker 1Yeah, And that's.
Speaker 14Really what I want is just for her to be okay.
Well, she doesn't want a relation with me, I understand.
Speaker 11I get it.
Speaker 14I'll stand back and stam my lane.
Speaker 8Well, all you can do is try and the fact that you're trying will these show speaks to you as a character, E speaks that you've changed from who you were when you were raising her.
So I mean, as long as you're outarly trying as much as you can, that's literally all you can do.
It's up to her to meet you halfway or the rest of the way.
So at least you're actively trying Turkey.
Speaker 4Yeah, and you know, just like I said, be patient.
Speaker 3It feels like she wants to be able to really heal, but she hasn't been able to and sometimes people don't have that breakthrough moment for years back.
Speaker 10Thank you so much, all right, thank you keep going.
Speaker 4To work on all right.
Speaker 3Well that was ask ye eight hundred and two ninety two fifty one fifty any question.
Like I said, we are here to help you out, and when we come back, it is a wealth.
Wednesday, we have Nadine hy He joining us.
He is the founder of Daniel's Leather.
And if you don't know about Daniel's Leather, man, listen when I tell you everybody has been wearing these coats, from Mary d.
Blige to Note to Wendy Williams, to Lebron James.
He's gonna talk to you about how he's started his business from the ground up.
Speaker 4All right, it's way up, kind a dream.
Speaker 8Of wealthy and I don't mind sharing my.
Speaker 6Wealth dog getting you straight financially, mentally and physically.
This is wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela.
Speaker 4Ye, what's up?
Speaker 3His Way up with Angela Lee.
I'm here with Mano, known for his style.
You know it's fashion week and we got not Dan.
Why heat here from Daniel's Leather?
What's up?
Speaker 1I'm good, Angela?
How are you?
Speaker 3I'm amazing?
Thank you for asking.
You know I was asking Mayna.
I said, why is it called Daniel's leather.
Speaker 15Daniel's leather is called because my son's name is danielle.
Speaker 1Okay, Well, people often make mistake and call you Dan.
Speaker 4I think you're Daniel.
Speaker 3I'm used to it, so I was like, they're sending a representative.
But Daniels Leather has been a staple here.
It's not easy to establish yourself in the way that you've managed to do it.
So we would love to hear the story about how Daniels leather has become a staple in New York.
We've seen Nas, We've see Davido, ghost face, sexy red, I mean everybody, you name it, Monica, They've been to Daniel's Letter, they warned Daniel's letter.
They've had custom things done.
But it's not an easy space to be in.
Speaker 4Now.
You first came here from Pakistan?
Is that correct?
Speaker 1That is true?
Speaker 4All right?
So how long ago was that?
Speaker 15That was a long long time ago.
I thought I'm going to be here only for eighteen months, finish my master's in environmental engineering, and then go back.
I got my master's and never went back.
Speaker 3And that's such a change in what it is that you do now.
Right now, Nadim, why Heat is here with me in Mana, we're talking about fashion week and he's the owner of Daniel's Leather.
When did fashion become what you knew was going to be your lane?
Speaker 15I always had like a good eye for coordination and good taste, but it was more accidental than anything.
One of my friends had bought like a hundred coaches from Pakistan and he was unable to sell it.
I was working on a sixty two million dollar project in Camden, and I told him, let me take these coats over there, let's see what we can do.
Speaker 3That is so funny that you were working on a sixty two million dollar project, and you were trying to help your friend with.
Speaker 15A hundred sixty two million?
Was my boss is sixty two million.
I was working as an engineer, but in one day we sold.
Speaker 1All the courts.
Speaker 15Wow, how I think that the courts were good and I'm a good saleman.
So you got to have both the things.
You got to have the right look, and then you've got to have the right person.
A person would only and only give you money if they like you.
This is what I teach my saleman.
The customer have to like you.
If they like you and your product is good, they will buy.
Speaker 3That's a fact because when I go shopping sometimes if I like the person and they're real cool and nice, I feel like I should just buy something.
Speaker 1Like them.
Speaker 4Then I'm like I rather not.
Speaker 3I will even go to a store and look it up online and order it online instead of buying it there, even if I know I want it.
Speaker 15No, it makes sense because it means they have to respect your money.
Speaker 4How do you get customers to like you?
Speaker 15I mean, I think we are natural in this way that they can see the authenticity.
So from the beginning that I put a code on a customer and if I don't like it, I'm not selling it to them.
That person I would show them something as until them happy, because when they are out on the street, they are representing me and people trust me when it comes to that.
Speaker 4All right, nadin why heat is here with me?
And new Mano.
Speaker 3Mano has his own shirling coat that Daniel's Leather has produced is named after him because he's made it so popular.
He's the owner of Daniel's Leather.
And it's a Wealth Wednesday.
We have more with him when we come back.
It's way yep.
Speaker 8I've had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind sharing my wealth dog.
Speaker 6Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically.
This is wealth Wednesday.
On way up with Angela.
Speaker 4Ye, what's up?
His way up with Angela?
Yee?
Speaker 3Happy Wealth Wednesday.
We have Nadine Whahead here with us.
He is the owner of Daniel's Leather.
Giving back is also important, and that's something that you've been doing as well.
Speaker 15I think that is to me, is the most important part of whatever I do, more than my business, more than anything else.
Speaker 4What are some things that Daniel's Leather has done for the community.
Speaker 15We I mean, we do the court drives all the time.
We do donate about our thousand courtes every year.
We go to the shelters, we go to the community where the kids really really need these courtes, like im in so we just try to reach to the segment of society that people have ignored.
Speaker 3And I know you've been working with like Cardi B.
You work with Lebron James to do giveaways and things like that.
Those are the things that really warm my heart too.
Speaker 1The biggest one was with Lebron.
Speaker 15Their team had contacted me and I had gone to Ohio for his project.
And the second one was in the Marlborough Housing in Brooklyn with Cardi B.
Speaker 3Right now, Nadim why Heat is here with me in Mana.
We're talking about fashion Week and he's the owner of Daniel's Leather.
All right, now, you do have a show on September twelfth.
Speaker 4That one is.
Speaker 3Invitation only a September sixteenth though, you do have two shows.
Right there's an afternoon show and that one is for people with disabilities kids and a family show.
Speaker 15That is my favorite show out of all the shows.
They are so brave, they are achieving so much, and I wanted to highlight those people.
So I'm very excited.
I think it's like, literally we are making history because we're gonna have about forty people on the wheelchairs and they are all.
Speaker 4So beautiful in style.
Speaker 3Right now, what is something that you think people should be looking at if they're in the market for a new code.
Speaker 15I always say that go for the pieces that are timeless, that can never go out of style.
So you know, that would be like a jean jacket shirling, a car code, those are a good lookout, A classic trench code, those can never go out of side.
Speaker 3Lastly, what would you tell somebody that's listening right now that's like, this is a business that I'm interested in getting into.
Well, advice, If you could give them just two pieces of advice for somebody that wants to get into the type of business that you're in, what would you say.
Speaker 15I have this one third rule.
I say that for any business to be successful, it is one third talent, one third hard work, and one third luck.
Also important, do not do what everybody else is doing and say, Okay, I'm going to sell this thing cheaper, but I'm going to make the same thing.
Try to come up with something and people will appreciate that.
Come to something different, something that stands out.
Speaker 4All right, Well, thank you so much for joining us again.
Speaker 3We appreciate it.
