Amber Rose On Kanye West, Diddy Parties, Future $25K, Taylor Swift & Kim Kardashian

In this episode of Club Shay Shay, Shannon Sharpe sits down with the one and only Amber Rose—a model, entrepreneur, activist, and media personality who has been a cultural force for nearly two decades. Amber opens up about growing up in South Philly, overcoming a tough childhood, and her early dreams of becoming an epidemiologist after witnessing the impact of HIV/AIDS in her community.

Amber doesn’t hold back as she shares her struggles with homelessness, her early days stripping at 15, and her journey into the world of video vixens and modeling. She speaks candidly about falling in love with Kanye West, love bombing, and how Kanye styled not just her, but also Kim Kardashian and his current wife, Bianca Censori. Despite everything, she admits she still has a special place in her heart for Kanye and reflects on their time together.

From her experiences in Hollywood’s elite circles to the harsh truth about the entertainment industry being purely transactional, Amber drops major gems about friendships gone wrong, co-parenting with Wiz Khalifa, and why she’s no longer a feminist. She also dishes on celebrity drama, from Cardi B & Offset’s public breakup to Draya & Jalen Green’s relationship.

Amber also revisits the infamous 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, where Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift’s speech to declare that Beyoncé’s Single Ladies deserved the award. She shares her thoughts on that controversial moment, calling it “crazy” that Taylor won over Beyoncé, and reflecting on her time with Kanye during that era.

She also opens up about her struggles during the COVID-19 pandemic, including postpartum depression, mental health battles, and finding out her boyfriend was cheating on her during one of the toughest times of her life.
Plus, Amber addresses plastic surgery, dating rumors, and wild industry parties, including what really went down at Diddy’s legendary events. She even gives her take on Drake’s criticism, Kanye’s controlling ways, and the entertainment industry’s biggest secrets.

No topic is off-limits in this raw and revealing conversation. Tap in now!

Anthony Hamilton — Grammy Award-winning singer, multiplatinum songwriter, and one of the most soulful voices in modern R&B — joins Shannon Sharpe for a raw, emotional, and Southern conversation about music, manhood, heartbreak, and legacy. From the “born in a pot of collard greens” grit in his voice to the stories behind his biggest records, Anthony breaks down a life built on struggle, faith, and timeless storytelling.

He opens the episode performing “Charlene,” unpacking the real breakup behind it — waiting by the door, balancing ambition and love, and how men often hide behind their careers. Anthony talks about how long a partner should stand beside someone chasing a dream, the struggle of supporting a family with limited means, and why attention, not money, is the real love language.

After performing “Coming From Where I’m From,” he reflects on how growing up without his father pushed him to hustle harder, and how being adopted at 14 changed his life. He shares that his father didn’t return until right before his wedding — a reunion only made possible by his future wife. Shannon brings up viral memes about his music “sounding like walking home from work,” Flau’jae discovering “Charlene,” and Anthony realizing he’d officially become “old school.”

With “Her Heart,” Anthony discusses making mistakes, breaking promises, and how men grow emotionally. He opens up about crying as a man, why vulnerability is strength, and the meaning behind “I Cry.” Then the mood lifts as he performs “Cornbread, Fish & Collard Greens,” reflecting on why men rarely approach women anymore, social media replacing real connection, and the lost art of old-school flirting.

Anthony shares his favorite Southern dishes and his craziest food experiences before revisiting his early break as a background singer for D’Angelo. He performs “How Does It Feel,” shares lessons D’Angelo taught him, and remembers missing his final phone call. He opens up about D’Angelo’s pancreatic cancer, Angie Stone’s passing, their snowstorm sessions, and the heartbreak of their son losing both parents in one year.

Shannon and Anthony dive into Drake — linking in Toronto, studio sessions at The Embassy, and late-night rides in Rolls-Royces. Anthony compares Drake’s home to Prince’s legendary jam sessions, then takes us inside the homes of Nelson Mandela, Will Smith, and Jamie Foxx, plus his private talk with Barack Obama after performing for him.

He breaks down writing Donell Jones’ “U Know What’s Up,” creating “Thug Mansion” with Tupac, winning a Grammy with Al Green, and collaborating with The Roots, Jill Scott, Chris Brown, Jeezy, Rick Ross, Nas, and more. He discusses unreleased songs with John Legend and Ty Dolla $ign, appearing in DaBaby’s video, signing with Jermaine Dupri, and how music has changed in the streaming era.

Anthony reflects on grinding in New York City with just $67, how Nick Cannon bought him his first car, and the struggles artists like Kevin McCall face. He recalls working on American Gangster with Denzel Washington, Empire with Terrence Howard, and witnessing a killing at seven. He shares the moment Michael Jordan gifted him Jordans and his experience working with Oprah on They Call Me Dad. He closes by reflecting on raising six sons, marrying young, and how dating feels different after marriage.

Club Shay Shay sits down with one of the most accomplished and influential superstars in professional wrestling history, Seth Rollins, for a candid, in-depth conversation with host Shannon Sharpe that traces his life, career, and legacy inside and outside the ring.

Seth reflects on growing up in a small town in Buffalo, Iowa, being adopted at a young age, and the powerful role his stepfather played in his life. Despite what he describes as a “broken upbringing,” Seth credits strong male role models, unconditional love, and work ethic for shaping the man he is today. Seth opens up about learning more about his heritage through 23andMe and reconnecting with his biological family later in life. While he holds no resentment toward his biological father, Seth shares that they have never met in person and have had minimal contact, as his father has not shown interest in building a relationship. He does, however, remain in touch with his half sister, and credits the strong male role models in his life for giving him peace and perspective around that situation.

The conversation turns to the moment that changed everything—attending his first professional wrestling event at just five years old. Inspired by legends like Hulk Hogan, Shawn Michaels, and Bret “The Hitman” Hart, Seth realized early on that you didn’t have to be the biggest athlete to become a star. At 14, he told his parents he was done with basketball and fully committed to becoming a professional wrestler.

Seth details his grind on the independent circuit starting at 17, the financial struggles of chasing his dream, and ultimately dropping out of college with his mother’s support to go all in. He discusses mentorship from Joey Mercury, nearly signing with TNA, and why he was willing to wait years for the opportunity to join WWE because it was the only place he wanted to be.

After moving to Florida to train, Seth breaks down the rise of The Shield alongside Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose, how social media amplified their momentum, and why their shocking breakup became a defining moment in wrestling history—launching all three men to the top of the industry.
Seth also discusses owning the Black and Brave Wrestling Academy, wrestling through injuries, adapting as both a babyface and a heel, and learning to connect with audiences through storytelling, signature moves, and finishing sequences. He reflects on his relationship with Vince McMahon, iconic matches, and moments that shaped his career.

Seth reflects on his legacy, including his Mount Rushmore of wrestlers, evolving friendships—most notably his real-life fallout with CM Punk—celebrity crossovers entering the WWE ring, and crazy fan interactions. He also opens up about life with his wife Becky Lynch, fatherhood, and how they balance two demanding careers while raising a toddler. The episode closes with Seth sharing his thoughts on longevity in wrestling, his lifelong loyalty to the Chicago Bears, and his bold Super Bowl prediction.

This is a must-watch episode for wrestling fans, athletes, and anyone chasing a dream—proof that greatness is built through patience, resilience, and loving the journey.

Comedian and Netflix star Mark Normand joins Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay for a hilarious and unfiltered conversation about growing up wild in New Orleans, grinding through the New York comedy scene, and building one of the most respected careers in stand-up today.
Mark opens up about his unconventional New Orleans childhood — growing up as the white family in a predominantly Black neighborhood inside a crumbling mansion his father purchased on a whim. He describes the constant break-ins, getting his bike stolen, and the surreal experience of having a cross-dressing Black man named Ennis as his nanny — who also happened to be the toughest person he'd ever seen. Mark reflects on the profound impact Ennis had on his life and the devastating news of his tragic death years later. He also shares the story of his family finally fleeing the neighborhood after a terrifying home invasion where his parents were tied up at gunpoint.
The conversation turns to how those early years shaped Mark's comedic instincts — learning quick wit from public school "snaps" culture before being sent to private Catholic school, where he discovered rich kids had their own set of far darker problems. Mark also gets candid about bedwetting well into his teenage years that he attributes to childhood trauma, how it resurfaced during his early drinking years, and why he'd rather go bald than deal with Propecia's side effects.
The discussion moves into relationships and dating — how his decade-long high school relationship faded when he moved to New York and went all in on comedy, how his wife showed up to one of his shows on a date with another man and DMed him after, and why Bill Burr telling him he wished he'd had a kid ten years earlier was the push he needed to change his life. Mark and Shannon also riff on dating apps, height preferences, the double standard between men and women, and why biology always wins in the end.
The episode dives into the craft and business of stand-up — from his influences like Carlin, Seinfeld, and Richard Pryor, to surviving at legendary clubs like the Comedy Cellar. He breaks down why great stand-up takes years to perfect, how his Kevin Hart stage persona came to life after a string of bombing sets, and the moment he actually performed the bit in front of the real Kevin Hart.
Shannon and Mark dig into current events — from the Epstein files and which powerful figures should be held accountable, to the racial politics of the Super Bowl halftime show, the Black national anthem debate, cancel culture, and what the Rodney King video started that cell phone cameras finished.
The episode closes with Mark getting jumped three times in his first year in New York — including being body-slammed by an old man in Crown Heights before a group of drug dealers stepped in to save him — and his reverence for Dave Chappelle as the greatest stand-up orator of his generation after a late-night hang at Chappelle's club in Ohio.

UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier sits down with Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay for an unfiltered conversation about his legendary journey — from Lafayette, Louisiana to becoming one of the greatest fighters to ever step in the octagon.

DC reflects on his humble beginnings, being bullied as a kid, arrested for street fighting in college, and even trying and failing at selling fake crack before finding his path through wrestling. He explains how his wrestling background shaped his fighting style, why his 5’10” height gave him an advantage grappling, and how his first love of boxing through Wide World of Sports laid the foundation for his combat career. Despite not going to school for media, he became one of the most respected voices in sports, proving fans want authenticity and lived experience.

DC relives his iconic rivalry with Jon Jones, from brawling at their first press conference to being knocked out for the first time in his life. He recalls not remembering anything from the knockout to the ambulance ride, and Dana White sending him $1 million afterward. He details how Jones set him up with body kicks before the head-kick KO, why Jones is the most talented fighter ever but not the GOAT because of steroids, and why finding out about Jones’ failed tests felt like losing his first girlfriend. He says Jones wouldn’t beat him at heavyweight, wonders why he won’t fight Tom Aspinall, and insists Jon should fight at the White House so an American can actually win.

Cormier doesn’t hold back on today’s stars: praising Tom Aspinall, calling Derrick Lewis the “Knockout King,” and saying Francis Ngannou looks like the perfect heavyweight champion. He recalls Cyril Gane being starstruck in the ring with Jon Jones, predicts Jake Paul’s boxing ceiling, and weighs in on matchups like Jake Paul vs. Canelo Alvarez, Anthony Joshua, and Mike Tyson. He even explains why boxers can’t beat MMA fighters in a street fight.
On his personal Mount Rushmore, DC picks Demetrious Johnson, Georges St-Pierre, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Chuck Liddell, and Randy Couture — leaving off Anderson Silva and Jon Jones because of steroids. He shares why Khabib is the greatest fighter ever, how their friendship formed, and why Dagestan fighters like Khabib and Islam Makhachev are so dominant. He recalls Khabib turning down $40 million to fight again, explains why Conor McGregor’s money ruined his career, and calls Khabib vs. McGregor the biggest fight in UFC history.

Outside the octagon, DC talks about nearly playing football at LSU, cornering Herschel Walker, his run-ins with fighters like Ronda Rousey, Miesha Tate, and Brock Lesnar (who he says he’d beat easily), and why he never wanted to join WWE despite the money. He also touches on his friendships with athletes across sports — from Christian McCaffrey, the Manning brothers, and Bronny James to Ken Griffey Jr., Barry Bonds, Vlad Guerrero Jr., and Tom Brady — and whether athletes’ kids can ever surpass their famous fathers.

Finally, DC gives Shannon insight into fight preparation, the science of recovery, and competing into his 40s like LeBron James, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He reveals how a simple sneeze before the Derrick Lewis fight ended his career, why even LeBron could face the same fate from one freak injury, and why a fighter’s legacy can change in a single moment.

From rivalries and weight cuts to family, fatherhood, and fighting for legacy — this is Daniel Cormier like you’ve never heard him before.

In this episode of Club Shay Shay, Shannon Sharpe sits down with the legendary Bobby Brown—the original bad boy of R&B, Grammy Award–winning icon, New York Times bestselling author, and chart-topping phenomenon.

Bobby dives into founding Bobby Brown Foods with his wife and shares his love for cooking—especially his unbeatable fried chicken. He reflects on whether his kids will follow in his entertainment footsteps and reveals his all-time favorite song he’s written.

Bobby breaks down his songwriting process, his dynamic collaborations with producer Teddy Riley, and gives us a front-row seat into the making and legacy of My Prerogative. He even reacts to Britney Spears' controversial remake and opens up about being inspired by icons like Michael Jackson, Prince, Rick James, and Stevie Wonder.

From naming his favorite modern artists—SZA, Tems, Jazmine Sullivan, Anthony Hamilton, Bruno Mars—to addressing the hot debate ("Is R&B dead?"), Bobby keeps it real. He drops his Mount Rushmore of R&B singers (Prince, Michael, Marvin, Stevie), reflects on Don’t Be Cruel selling 12 million copies, and gets candid about streaming's impact on artists, the importance of owning your masters, and surviving fame from a young age. He also opens up about being kicked out of New Edition, how predatory music deals cost him $30 million, and why going solo was the best decision of his career.

Bobby names his top four singing groups of all time—Gap Band, Jackson 5, New Edition, and Kool & the Gang—and reveals his best and worst purchases, including the wild story of spending $1 million in a single day. He reflects on the pain of being taken advantage of by family and friends, and the loss of one of his closest friends to gun violence. He also shares the pride of building his own studio—where artists like OutKast recorded.

From Donald Trump’s cameo in his “On Our Own” video to his run-ins with the law—including getting arrested for dancing with a fan in Georgia—Bobby tells it all. He talks about working with Martin Lawrence in A Thin Line Between Love and Hate, starring in Two Can Play That Game, and why he regrets turning down a role in Strictly Business with Halle Berry and Tommy Davidson.

Bobby looks back fondly on his time on Real Husbands of Hollywood with Kevin Hart, Nick Cannon, and Nelly, and opens up about the intense experience of his reality show with Whitney Houston. He also talks about being shot by an ex-boyfriend of his then-girlfriend—and his romance with Janet Jackson in the '80s. The R&B superstar shares his mission with the Bobbi Kristina Serenity House, a charity created in honor of his late daughter.

From the highest highs to the most heartbreaking lows, Bobby Brown proves once again why he’s not just a music icon—he’s a cultural legend. Don’t miss this powerful and unfiltered conversation.

Comedian and global touring star Gabriel Iglesias joins for a candid and hilarious conversation about fame, relationships, comedy, and the moments that shaped his career.

Gabriel opens up about the realities of dating and maintaining relationships while living a life on the road. As one of the most recognizable comedians in the world, he explains how constant fan interactions—sometimes happening every few steps in public—can create tension in relationships. Iglesias reflects on how fame complicates normal experiences like going out to dinner, and why partners have to understand the unique pressures that come with dating an entertainer.

The conversation turns to humor and attraction, with Gabriel joking that while abs may look good, a sense of humor is what truly wins people over. Known for making audiences laugh his entire life, he shares how comedy became his greatest asset—but also admits that personal struggles, including weight and avoiding difficult conversations in relationships, created challenges earlier in his life.

Iglesias then reflects on the moment he first discovered his comedic gift at just ten years old during a school talent show. Performing spot-on impressions of characters like Mickey Mouse, Ronald Reagan, and Pee-wee Herman, he stunned the audience and received a standing ovation—an experience that hooked him on performing long before he understood what stand-up comedy truly was.

Growing up, Gabriel found inspiration in the raw comedy he watched on Def Comedy Jam and BET's ComicView. Without many Latino comedians in the spotlight at the time, he gravitated toward stars like Martin Lawrence and D. L. Hughley, whose performances helped shape his understanding of stand-up. He even shares the surreal moment of finally meeting Martin Lawrence decades later and expressing how much his work meant to him.

Gabriel also talks about landing one of his early TV opportunities on ComicView and why young comedians should prioritize mastering the craft over chasing money or fame. For him, exposure and growth mattered far more than the small paycheck he earned at the time.

One of the most memorable stories comes from his first trip to New York to perform on Showtime at the Apollo at the legendary Apollo Theater in 1999, hosted by Steve Harvey. Gabriel recalls how brutally honest the Apollo audience was—and how he had to follow a fellow comedian who had just been booed off the stage. After advice from co-host Kiki Shepard about changing his outfit, Iglesias took the stage in a simple white T-shirt and delivered one of the best sets of his early career, earning a standing ovation.

He also shares the awkward aftermath of celebrating that huge moment while still sharing a hotel room with the comedian who bombed before him—and how even a second attempt at redemption at Carolines on Broadway didn’t go as planned.

Closes with Gabriel’s incredible career milestones—from selling out arenas worldwide to historic performances at venues like Madison Square Garden, Sydney Opera House, and Dodger Stadium—cementing the legacy of the comedian fans know and love as “Fluffy.”

Oscar De La Hoya sits down with Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay for a conversation that explores the multifaceted layers of his life, career and boxing. Oscar reflects on his illustrious boxing legacy, emphasizing that while his achievements in the ring are significant, they do not entirely define him. He ranks himself among the greats of his generation but remains humble, placing himself second to last, just ahead of Canelo Álvarez.

Oscar delves into his iconic bout with Floyd Mayweather, expressing his conviction that he won the fight in spirit, if not by decision. He praises Floyd's unique qualities, including his intelligence and ring generalship, and credits Floyd Sr. as the best trainer Oscar ever had. Oscar explains why the Floyd vs Manny Pacquiao fight would've been better five years earlier than it happened and revisits his fight against Pacquiao, revealing the profound personal struggles he faced at the time, which made him feel as though he wanted to die during the fight.

The conversation shifts to the business side of boxing, where Oscar discusses the evolution of the sport and the increasing emphasis on money over consistent performance. Oscar also opens up about his transition into the world of promotions, driven by a desire to protect fighters and remain connected to the sport even as his own career waned. He also opens up about the time Jay-Z bet Oscar $250K that Miguel Cotto would beat Canelo.

The discussion turns to Oscar's current role as a promoter, including his work with Ryan Garcia. He expresses concern over Ryan's recent behavior and the impact of external influences on the young fighter's career. Despite the controversy, Oscar believes Ryan has what it takes to be great, as shown in his bout vs Devin Haney. Oscar also addresses his strained relationships with other fighting figures, including Canelo Álvarez and Dana White, candidly discussing the fallout and the personal toll it has taken on him.

As the episode draws to a close, Oscar reflects on his childhood, the trauma he endured, and how it shaped his drive to succeed. He reminisces about winning Olympic gold at the 1992 Olympics, a moment he considers the pinnacle of his career despite the immense pressure he faced following his mother's death. Oscar touches on the growing phenomenon of celebrity boxing, his thoughts on Jake Paul not taking "real" fights, and the idea of a potential fight between Jake and Canelo. Additionally, Oscar explains who would win in a boxing match if Drake and Kendrick Lamar's beef ever found its way into the ring and his answer may surprise you. Then, Shannon jokes about Oscar getting "Ai abs" and plastic surgery rather than earning his muscles in the gym.

Throughout the conversation, Oscar remains grounded, speaking candidly about his personal life, including his struggles with addiction and the lessons he's learned along the way. He contemplates his legacy, expressing a desire to be remembered not just for his accomplishments in the ring but for the person he is beyond boxing. Join Shannon Sharpe and Oscar De La Hoya for an episode filled with reflection, honesty, and the wisdom of a man who has seen and survived it all.

On this powerful episode of Club Shay Shay, host Shannon Sharpe sits down with Grammy-nominated, multiplatinum artist, entrepreneur, and Louisiana legend Kevin Gates for one of the most vulnerable and spiritually charged conversations of his career.

The episode opens with Kevin Gates leading a prayer in Arabic, setting the tone for a deeply introspective discussion. Gates reflects on being born in New Orleans and raised in Baton Rouge by his grandparents, crediting them for instilling respect, discipline, and a relentless work ethic. He shares how his grandfather remains the motivational voice in his head and opens up about the pain of losing his grandmother just before performing in Baton Rouge, as well as the backlash he faced online while grieving.

Gates dives into his complicated relationship with his mother, discussing estrangement, healing conversations, and how understanding her limitations helped heal his inner child. He explains how being treated as the “black sheep” fueled his overachieving mindset and desire for validation. Shannon and Kevin also discuss trauma, including Gates’ admission of childhood sexual abuse, the disbelief he faced, and how that trauma shaped his fear, violence, and eventual path toward healing and accountability.

The conversation turns to fatherhood, masculinity, and mental health, as Gates explains how he created open, safe spaces for his children and other men to heal. He reveals how making his song “Protect Children” forced him to confront unresolved trauma and why music remains one of his most powerful tools for release and purpose.Gates reflects on his troubled youth, time in juvenile detention and prison, hustle culture, and the lessons that ultimately redirected his life. He shares insights on the music industry, founding Bread Winners Records, and learning from legends like Master P, Boosie, Birdman, Jim Jones, Lil Wayne, and the Young Money era. Gates also discusses career highs and lows, including his 2016 Grammy nomination while incarcerated, touring, collaborations, and his love for performing.

The episode explores Gates’ dramatic physical transformation, spirituality, fasting, Ramadan, discipline, and self-improvement. He opens up about depression, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts, and the importance of speaking up rather than suffering in silence. Gates speaks candidly about love, marriage, trust, faith, and how healing his relationship with God transformed his relationships.The conversation concludes with reflections on fatherhood, legacy, spirituality, and Gates’ goals for himself mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually—leaving listeners with a powerful message about turning pain into purpose.

NBA champion, entrepreneur, artist, and media personality Iman Shumpert joins Club Shay Shay for a powerful and emotional conversation that moves from legacy and loss to fatherhood, relationships, and personal growth.

Iman opens up about the recent passing of his father and the impact he had on his life. He shares that his dad spoke to him every day and shaped the man he is today. Remembering their last conversation. Iman reflects on the shock of losing a “good man,” describing his father as his blueprint for discipline, leadership, and integrity. He explains how grief changed him, forcing him to step fully into manhood without the daily guidance he once relied on.

The conversation shifts to fatherhood and how Iman is raising his daughters with the same love, presence, and accountability he received growing up. He emphasizes intentionality—being attentive, remembering the small things like school presentations, and protecting their emotional space. He breaks down the importance of Black fathers, comparing them to elite defensive backs like Darrelle Revis—so dominant that trouble doesn’t even come their way. He speaks candidly about representation, safety, and how having strong Black male role models shaped how he views the world.

Iman also shares how his mother found joy again through her grandchildren after losing her husband, and how seeing all her sons together brought her peace. He reflects on how grief can physically affect loved ones and the weight that comes with losing a lifelong partner.

He dives into winning an NBA championship with the Cleveland Cavaliers and what it meant to be part of the franchise’s first title run, while also reflecting on his historic Mirrorball Trophy victory on Dancing with the Stars. Iman touches on how the championship was monumental, but the Dancing with the Stars win might hold an even more special place in his mom’s heart.

Iman discusses witnessing the birth of both his daughters at home, his thoughts on having more children, and why he’s hesitant about legal marriage in the future. He speaks honestly about lessons learned from marriage—challenging the idea that a wedding creates a new level of love—and explains why authenticity matters more to him now than performing for relationships.

Iman also reflects on his NBA journey, explaining why he never officially closed the door on basketball and would still answer the call if a contender needed him. He speaks about winning a championship alongside LeBron James with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Iman makes it clear that the competitive fire never left, saying he didn’t “retire-retire” because if the right opportunity came, he’d get in shape and be ready.

He addresses public dating and social media narratives. Kountry Wayne and his relationship with his children and babymothers, and working with him. On filming and being a part of The Chi and Kountry Wayne skits. Receiving advice from Jacob Latimore. Almost getting into a fight after the playoffs. Speak on the controversy of Chris Paul's retirement. Iman also weighs in on platonic friendships between men and women, emotional boundaries, and the impact of a woman’s relationship with her father.

Mike Epps. We Them Ones Comedy Tour.
Get Your Tickets Now at http://www.BMNShows.com

Shannon Sharpe sits down with comedy legend Mike Epps for a raw, hilarious, and deeply personal conversation that spans decades in stand-up, film, and survival in Hollywood.

The episode opens with Mike promoting the We Them Ones Comedy Tour, then quickly shifts into the tension surrounding the Katt Williams interview, the rift between comedians, and how Mike almost skipped the sit-down altogether. He and Shannon break down their phone call, the Country Kitchen meet-up, and why it mattered that their disagreement didn’t turn violent — emphasizing the responsibility entertainers have to their communities.

Mike opens up about his complicated relationships with Katt Williams and Kevin Hart, including how Kevin brushing him off fueled his hunger. He talks about how Katt turned comedy beef into a check by calling out Cedric The Entertainer and Steve Harvey, and how sadness is often the hidden cost of making people laugh.

From there, Mike revisits his journey into the Friday franchise, meeting Ice Cube, auditioning for Next Friday, competing for a role Chris Tucker passed on, and the pressure of replacing a legend. He shares how Ice Cube always had a comedian’s soul, paid his actors, pushed ad-libs, and taught him that success is a marathon.

Mike reflects on fame, survivor’s remorse, resisting drugs, and trying to buy love from friends and family. He dives into iconic roles like All About the Benjamins, nearly casting Lil’ Kim, filming Whitney Houston’s last movie Sparkle, watching Whitney sing on set, working with Beyoncé on The Fighting Temptations, and why acting is a different hustle than music.

He speaks on family ties with Mo’Nique, performing on Netflix vs. network TV, creating The Upshaws with Wanda Sykes, being killed off on shows, forgetting lines, working with Denzel Washington, John Goodman, The Rock, Taraji P. Henson, and more.

The conversation turns brutally honest as Mike addresses regretful career decisions, Hollywood gatekeepers, conspiracy thinking, the meaning of “selling out,” the Chris Rock & Will Smith incident, his admiration for Eddie Murphy, and naming his GOAT comedians: Martin Lawrence, Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, and Bernie Mac.

Mike reveals painful childhood memories of being held back in school, growing up on welfare, buying his mom her first washer and dryer, purchasing the homes his family was evicted from, surviving jail time, bad contracts, and personal demons. He credits Def Comedy Jam, Russell Simmons, Steve Harvey, and Bernie Mac.

He closes by discussing mentorship, taking young comics like Carlos Miller and DC Young Fly on tour, losing money gambling with Charles Oakley and Gerald Levert, receiving Tupac’s jewelry, rumors about being related to 2 Chainz, and why his passion for the art and business has kept him relevant for decades.

Mike Epps believes this tour will be his biggest yet!
