Charlamagne Tha God spoke on a recent Breakfast Club episode of rappers who say "R.I.P." after the murders of their contemporaries, but continue to promote the lifestyle that contributed to their demise.

Rapper Tee Grizzley, who released a song titled "Robbery Part 4" and was the victim of a home invasion a few days later was the subject of conversation on the episode. In response to the home invasion, Grizzley said, "We gotta watch what we speakin' into existence man. I know it seems like we just makin' music and it's art but these words are powerful bro. Just like we can speak good shit into existence, we can speak bad shit into existence."

Charlamagne replied that it was sad that those words are even necessary.

"Ironically he has a series of songs out called 'Robbery'," Charlamagne said. "He is absolutely correct about the power of the tongue, and it's amazing that he even has to say it because smart people learn from their own mistakes and wise people learn from the mistakes of others. It's like have you learned from the mistakes of all the rappers who came before you?"

He then talked about how confusing the mixed messages that some rappers send can be. "There's absolute power in the tongue that's why it does confuse me when I hear rappers send out R.I.P.'s to people, but then continue to celebrate and glorify the same lifestyles that led to those people's demise. It's just interesting."
