Collectively known as Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, T-Zambie. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Tuesday. Yes, it's Tuesday. Yes, it is. A very exciting day for myself, being a father. Today, my daughter turned 17. Drop a round of applause.

Give her a bomb, all that good stuff. Happy birthday, Maddie. 17 years old. I'm super, super excited. She's 17 today. She takes her road test this morning. So I'm excited about this. We've been practicing.

We've been training. We've been doing it at night in the rain. Good weather, cloudy weather. So we'll see what happens this morning. Does the legal age for driving go up or something? I thought that's 16. No, in Jersey it's 17. You get your permit when you're 16. South Carolina is 16.

Yeah, no. You know what's crazy? So I moved to New Jersey from New York when I was in high school. And that's probably the only reason I knew how to drive because my mom really couldn't drive. And we didn't have like a car that I could probably drive on. So when you go to school in New Jersey, taking driver's ed is part of your curriculum. We didn't have that in New York. No, I had to take driver's ed in New York.

They schedule your road test for you the day that you turn 17. Your birthday. Yeah, so today is her birthday. She's taking that. She's super duper excited and scared. So it should be a lot of fun, man. This is big for baby girl. So I'm excited about that.

She can finally draw the phantom. Now, Charlamagne, we saw you had your VH1 special on last night. Yes, in session live. You didn't cry. No, I didn't cry. No. Maybe another 10, 15 minutes minutes I would have got there. I have to catch up on that on the plane.

I was in Atlanta on my way back. It was a lot of rain. People were hitting me. They wanted to know how come the questions I asked you yesterday, she didn't ask. Because it's not an interview. That's the other thing, too, that people don't realize about therapy. You've been to therapy before, haven't you? You've been to therapy before?

Nope. They don't interview you in therapy. That's why it's hard to do it live because you've got to kind before, haven't you? You've been to therapy before? Nope. They don't interview you in therapy. That's why it's hard to do it live because you've got to kind of get into it. You start expressing your feelings and they sit there. Oh, not me. I come in hot, baby. You come in hot? I come in hot.

You come in immediately. I don't even know how we got there so early. I came in talking about being molested at age eight by a woman who I made stop because she had a jerry can. Hello. Hey, Leonard. How you doing? Hey. When I was the age of five,

I got a list. She was like, what the hell? I don't even know how we got there so fast. I literally, after the first segment, I was like, what the hell are we doing?

Poor lady gonna retire now. I wanted to run out, drop on a clues box for Dr. Jessica Clements. I wanted to run out after the first segment. I was like, okay, I think I done bit off

more than I can chew. Are there things that you were conscious of being on television and people watching and you were like, I don't want to go there? No, that was the thing that made it made it

comfortably uncomfortable because I really felt like I was in therapy. Probably because I didn't go to therapy last week. I felt like I was in my therapy session, like immediately. Out of the gate. So it's like I kind of forgot I was on television until we had to stop for commercials every five minutes. But other than that... Yeah, but other than So it's like I kind of forgot I was on television until we had to stop for commercials every five minutes.

But other than that... We gotta pay the bills. Yeah, but other than that, it felt like therapy. That's exactly how therapy feels. Therapy makes you feel comfortably uncomfortable. Okay. Alright, well, if people haven't seen it, can they see it again? I don't know, man, because Viacom's so stingy when it comes to putting stuff on YouTube. I don't know.

Let me send out an email or two. I would love for them to post it this morning. I think that would be great for people who didn't see it. Absolutely. Let on YouTube. I don't know. Let me send out an email or two. I would love for them to post it this morning. I think that would be great for people who didn't see it. Absolutely. Let me see. Now, this morning on the show, we got a couple of people joining us. From the City Girls, Young Miami will be joining us.

Dropping a clues bomb for Young Miami. No, the City Girls are two people. You know, one's locked up. And if you don't know who the City Girls are, in the Drake Feelings, when the part where it goes, Too bad. And they got a't know who the City Girls are and Drake Feelings, when the part goes too bad, in the end,

in the end. And they got a whole project out called Period. They signed the QC, Quality Control, Home with Amigos and Lil Yachty and Lil Baby. Yeah, they got joints. I think the Period is one of the best projects of the year if you ask me. I actually do like all their songs that I've heard and I actually got a chance

to see Young Miami perform at the pre-Powerhouse show, so that was really fun. Okay. Yeah, well, she'll be joining us this morning, and also from TMZ, Van Lathan will be joining us. And the Red Pill podcast. And the Red Pill podcast. You know, very, very intelligent, articulate brother. The black guy on TMZ, if you don't know him.

Yes, that's what they call him. He hates that, but yes. I know he does. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news. Yeah if you don't know him. Yes, that's what they call him. He hates that, but yes. I know he does. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news. Yee, you're back at it. Of course, we have a rest in peace this morning, and this is a big one. Lord have mercy.

It's a tease, Envy. Then you'll be like, all right, we'll tell you all about it. All right, we'll tell you all about it. I was waiting for it. I was like, damn, who done passed away now? Good, wait till after the commercials and music. Damn it, man. All right, we'll get into that next.

Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy,. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Now, the reason I was stumbling, because I'm so excited my Giants finally won a game.

I'm super duper excited. Oh, when your team wins, your trash ass team wins. My team is still in playoff contention. Your team, winning for your team is a consolation prize at this point. Like, you know, hey, for everybody out there who bought season tickets, we'll win a couple for you. We're only two games away from you guys. That's not true.

Yes, that is. What's your record? From us, but that don't mean nothing. Okay, we only won four games. All right, and now we won two. Okay. The Giants beat the 49ers last night 27-23. So now we are in third place in our division. Which means nothing. It means nothing. Now we won two. Okay. The Giants beat the 49ers last night 27-23.

So now we are in third place in our division. Which means nothing. It means nothing. Because the NFC East is trash. I didn't even watch the game last night. I ain't even going to lie. When they won, I said, oh, wow, they finally won a game. They won another game. All right.

What else are we talking about, Yee? Well, rest in peace to Stan Lee. That's the man who started Marvel back in 1961 with Jack Kirby with the Fantastic Four. He also created Spider-Man, Black Panther, The Incredible Hulk, X-Men, Iron Man, and The Avengers. Everything. Stan Lee is Marvel. Well, he was 95 years old, and he was suffering from several illnesses over the last year. They said he had pneumonia, vision issues, and he is survived by his daughter, J.C., his wife of 69 years.

Joan died back in 2017 also. And the crazy thing is if you aren't even a Marvel comic fan, but you're, say, a fan of the movies, he literally has a cameo in every Marvel movie in some way, shape, or form. How does that make you feel that he passed away? I know you're a huge superhero fan. What's up, boys? Yes, I'm a huge Marvel fan, but he was 95 years old.

He had a great life. He had an amazing life. We hope to live till 95. Superheroes passed? He was 95 years old. Who's your favorite superhero? He came, he saw, he conquered three times. Who's your favorite superhero?

I got a lot of different favorite superheroes. I got Wolverine tattooed on my arm. Do you feel like Wolverine doesn't have this? Hey, shut up! All right, also, rest in peace. 44 people passed away in California's fires as the Camp Fire becomes the deadliest in state history. Right now, 44 people.

Imagine that. Miley Cyrus is talking about her house was destroyed in the wildfires, but she's just happy to have her life. She said, I'm one of the lucky ones. My animals and love of my life made it out safely, and that's all that matters right now. Kim and Kanye, they hired private firefighters. This is crazy.

I didn't even know you could do that. Where do you find that number? And who are the private firefighters in the world? Well, it's a private team, and that team was battling the flames on their property. They had hoses, and they also dug ditches to create a fire brick, so that saved their home. And in lieu of saving their home, it also saved

the home of countless other people on the block as well. Which is dope. I asked about that. I think they call them the hot shots. And they're a private team that the government usually uses when there's crazy fires. So the government didn't use them, so they said that Kim K The government needs to have these hot shots step in. And they get busy, right? First of all,

hot shots, if you're really public servants, nobody should have to call you. Okay? Y'all shouldn't be heroes for hire. And, you know, y'all should pull up just because. Yeah, now is the time. 44 people dead already? If you see this raging fire going on in California and you're a hot shot and you got your own

hoses or fire trucks or whatever it is y'all use, y'all should pull up and help just because. I don't know if that's the truth. That's what somebody told me. Before you get into hot shots, this is what somebody told me. So you just made something up? Who told you this? This is not accurate. I don't know if that's the truth. That's what somebody told me. Before you get into hot shots, this is what somebody told me. So you just made something up? Who told you this? This is not accurate. I don't know if it's 100% accurate.

You could have Googled it first. Somebody told me that. I tried it. Well, it didn't pull up. Okay. Well, I'm just hypothetically going off if you're correct. Okay.

But even still, Kim and Kanye had to hire them. Yes. You shouldn't have to be hired in a situation like that, right? You should just show up. Well, they decide what they want to save. Like, I heard they decided to save Pepperdine College

because a lot of students were there over different, you know, areas. So they, you know, because it's only but so much they can do. Yeah, that's got to be a sad situation. I see a lot of people have a real lack of empathy for celebrities, though, because they're like, oh, it don't matter. They can afford a new house or whatever. That's still their property. Yeah, that's still your property.

Nobody wants your house to get burned down. Yeah, and just all your own personal belongings, photos, things that you had your whole life. Money don't matter when it comes to Mother Nature. All right? Them hurricanes, them fires, them earthquakes, they don't care about class. Flood don't care about class. They don't care about status. They don't care about none of that.

All right. Well, that's your front page news. Thank you, Yee. Ain't no privilege when it comes to Mother Nature. Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning.

So I'm looking, I see Jill Scott is trending.

I'm like, why is she trending? I saw that, too. What happened? I see this video of her air chugging the mic like she was giving it some good fellatio. And I'm like, damn, I might go out to the house and check these shows out, man. First of all, as a man who's been to about eight Jill Scott shows in my life, from

the Sugarwater Festival to her own headlining solo shows, don't you disrespect Jill Scott like that, okay? No Jill Scott slander shall prosper. Well, Cresta Love tweeted out, LOL at y'all Jill Scott newbies. Y'all thought she was incense and sandals, huh? Man, I seen Jill Scott hit a high note so crazy one time

in Charlotte, North Carolina, that when she was hitting a high note, one tear started falling from her eye, like right down the side of her cheek. Jill is incredible. You hear me? Yeah, I gotta check her show after that one now, man. I'm like, all the old heads want her. I see Artelli had a show over the weekend. He was doing a whole lot of

He was getting his sweat wiped off of him. Jill Scott, LaHoney in this video. I don't like you calling Jill Scott an old head, by the way. She's only like 40, 41. R. Kelly is 97 years old. Jill Scott was singing. And what the hell is Jill Scott doing? Oh, my goodness.

Jill Scott got me ready. I'm going to work. I'm like, yo, I'm going to go. When I get off work, I'm like, yo. Wow, Jill Scott. She's staring me all the way off. And I'm like, man, I got to go to I get off work. Wow, Jill Scott. She's staring me all the way off with you and I'm like, man, I gotta go to her shows now. Jill Scott fine too though, by the way.

If you don't know what he's talking about, Jill Scott must be singing and she's acting like the mic is a penis and she is going so hard that it splashes in her face at the end. I'm gonna get Jill Scott on lip service. Alright, alright. God bless Jillie from Philly.

She's rubbing the testicles and all. All right, Jill. I don't know what got in Jill. Mikes don't have testicles, Envy, just so you know. Why do you act like Jill only makes that? Jill makes love making music, though. I've never seen anybody have a lick of testicles, Mike's testicles. There's no testicles on a Mike.

Are there testicles on your Mike? You ain't never seen nobody lick testicles? On a Mike before? Because you know why? Who's Mike? Mike don't's testicles. There's no testicles on a mic. Are there testicles on your mic? You ain't never seen nobody lick testicles? On a mic before? Because you know why? Why? Because Mike don't have testicles. Shut up. I'm not the highest grade of weed in this country, but I've never seen a mic with testicles.

Well, maybe if you've seen this video, you'd be like, damn, this mic has testicles. He has seen it. Oh. All right. Well, get it off your chest. 805-85-1051. Nayib, we got rumors on the way? Yes.

We are going to be talking about somebody who's got a brand new show. He just posted from his set. Also, Nicki Minaj, she is shooting her shot, but it looks like she has a boyfriend. Would you be mad about this if you were her man? All right, we'll get into this when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Michelle Obama. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, her book is out today.

Michelle Obama's new book, Becoming. I can't believe that they sent no advance copies of that book. They probably don't need to. They're like, whatever. Not for us. Not this little ghetto ass. That's going to sell millions of copies, by the way. Probably got a million in pre-orders.

No, that's going to happen. Now, Oprah Winfrey actually selected that book as her book club pick. It's the first time that she has picked an author from the political world since she started her book club back in 1996. She tweeted out from the very first pages of Becoming, I knew I wanted everyone to read it. Book clubs everywhere, you'll want to make this your next selection. Yes. She said this book is everything you wanted to know

and so much more you didn't even know you wanted to know. I believe it's going to spark within you the desire to think about your own becoming. It's so well written. I can hear her voice. I can hear her expressions. I can feel her emotion. I can't wait to read it. Now here is Michelle Obama with Oprah. And she said that she really didn't take much out of this book because she wanted to just let everybody see all of her.

Whether we like it or not, Barack and I, my husband and I, we are role models. Yep. And, you know, I hate when people who are in the public eye and even seek the public eye want to step back and say, well, I'm not a role model because I don't want that responsibility. Too late. You are. And that means that young people are looking at you. And I don't want young people to look at me here and now as Michelle Obama and think, well, she never had it rough. She never had challenges. She never had fear. She never got. Well, we're not going to think that after reading this book. Oh, no, you're not. Right. And she also goes on to talk about the pressures that they face as being the first black presidential family. We felt the pressure from the minute we started to run. We talk about that and just how, first of all, we had to convince our base that a black man could win.

Opening your hearts up to the hope that America would put down its racism for a black man, that, I think that hurt too much. And it wasn't until Iowa, when Barack won Iowa, that people thought, okay, maybe so. Did you believe in the beginning? Because you say in the beginning you didn't believe in it. No, no. Well, one of the reasons, the other

reason I said yes was like, okay, we're going to do this, he's going to lose, and that is that. I can't wait to read that book. What if Barack Obama puts out a book called Unbecoming? And it disputes everything she says in this book. I doubt that's going to happen. But I mean, this book is very personal.

We already played clips for you previously where she talks about suffering from a miscarriage, undergoing IVF to get her two daughters, marriage counseling. And this book talks about her growing up on the south side of Chicago, going to Princeton University, going to Harvard Law School, then being in the White House and learning how to balance work and motherhood. I can't wait to read it. How many pages does it say? Oh, no, I don't know. It's got to be at least 400, right?

But I'm sure you can look it up and see. But yes, this book has been on the bestsellers list for a couple of months now. Much. That's amazing. All right. Now, if you're a big Golden State Warriors fan, you can pay $100. It won't get you a seat, and you won't be able to view the game,

but you'll get in the building. They have this new monthly in-the-building pass, and that's just for admission into the arena for every home game. It costs $100 a month. So you got to just walk around the whole time. You can go to the bar, the restaurant, the club areas, and watch from there. That makes sense. Negro, please. Now that makes sense, because you can sneak in.

Negro, please. I know a lot of people that do that with the Yankees. They buy that little chill pass, and then they sneak in, they wiggle their way in, and then they get seats. Well, let's be clear. You can't do that at a basketball game. That's number one. Right? Why not? Those games are always sold out. Who not seat in these seats? Not all the seats are always sold out. But that's why they have these available, because the games are always sold out. They say see the names? Not all the seats are always sold out. But that's why they have these available because the games are always sold out.

They say that the Yankee game, too, is always sold out. The same thing. People wiggle their way in. Golden State has won three out of the last four championships. Their games are definitely always sold out. Without question. Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson. Can't find a seat in there.

If there's tickets on Step Up, you can get a seat. You can buy a ticket. The season ticket wait list has 44,000 people on it. Come on, man. What are you talking about, Envy? People don't go to every game. All the game, you always see an open seat or two. They were probably in the bathroom, Envy.

Exactly. I seriously got into the Golden State game. Yeah, it's crazy in there. $100, you could just go to any old bar in Oakland. You know what I'm saying? That's drinks. That's wine. But you're not in the stadium.

You don't get that vibe, man. You get the feeling. Absolutely. Well, they need to open up a club in there. You don't get that vibe. You get the feeling. Absolutely. Well, they need to open up a club in there. And if they're charging $100 for people to get in. They probably do have a club in there. A lot of these places do have clubs. Now, you know, the Dallas Cowboys have entrances called party passes for their NFL home games.

So you can come in just like that as well. But we don't deserve that. But you do have a view of the game. Definitely don't deserve it. We don't deserve to be charging people just to stand in our building. All right. And congratulations to Nick Cannon. He does have his new talk show.

He posted, thankful and grateful for my team and Fox TV for today. And the first step towards my late night show, catch the 2019 Fox Winter Preview coming to your house before the new year. We taking over. Dropping the clues, man. That's dope. He was doing a while and out in Atlanta while I was out there because when I was at an event,

I saw a lot of people were coming there from Wildin' Out. I see they made Nick take the head wrap off of late night TV, though. Did they? He got the fro flourishing. I'm sure that's his own decision. He said he could wear his turban if he wanted to. Nick Cannon can do what he wants. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.

Because Carlos is back. He's back, right? Trump on a clues bond for Carlos Miller. This little ass show worked. That's right. Little ghetto ass show with our ghetto ass fans, boy.

Woo! Okay, we make some noise out here when we want to. That's right. Now, Yee, we got front page news, right? What are we talking about? Man, let's talk about a tragedy that happened in the suburbs in Chicago. I can't believe somebody was a hero, and you won't believe what happened next. All right, we'll get into that next.

Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Continue the adventure with Newt Scamander as he teams up with Albus Dumbledore to stop the Dark Wizard Grindelwald's plans

to divide the wizarding world. Fantastic Beasts, The Crimes of Grindelwald. In theaters Thursday, rated PG-13. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news. Start off with my New York Giants.

They beat the 49ers last night 27-23. We are now in third place. All right, shut up. Third place in the NFC East. Let's be clear about that. Don't be screaming, y are now in third place. All right, shut up. Third place in the NFC East. Let's be clear about that. Don't be screaming, y'all, third place. Third place in the NFC East, which means that you're the third loser. All right?

That's all. But we won one, so I'm excited about that. What else are you talking about, Yee? Man, this was a tragic, tragic situation that happened in a suburb in Chicago. Now, Jamel Roberson was working security. He was at Manny's Blue Room Bar. This happened Sunday at 4am and that's when some drunk patrons were told

they had to leave, now one of the guys left and came back with a gun and opened fire now Jamel Roberson, who as I said was working security, actually returned the fire and apprehended one of the men, he placed his knee in the gunman's back and pointed a gun at him to stay still an officer who was responding

to a 911 call actually ended up showing up and firing at Roberson and killing him. Come on, man. Now, one of the bar patrons witnessed the shooting, and here's what he said. He had somebody on the ground with his knee in his back with his gun on him, like, don't move. Everybody was screaming out security. He was a security guard, and they still did their job and saw a black man with a gun and basically killed him. He wasn't dressed? What did he have on? Did he have on a security uniform?

Like, I don't understand. I don't know what he had on, but all I know is they said everybody was like, no, he's a security. He's one of us. So the cops weren't even listening when they barged in. I guess not. The cops were responding. The shots fired, barged in, saw somebody with a gun, saw commotion, screaming, didn't know what people were saying, and just shot.

Killed my knees and shot. Yeah, thinking he was a threat. That's crazy. Now, there's a GoFundMe account that was established to pay for his burial. He was only 26 years old. Yeah. Now, Jamel Roberson's mother, Beatrice Roberson, has filed a lawsuit against the police officer who killed her son. She said the shooting was unprovoked, unjustified, and excessive

and unreasonable, and she's suing the officer as well. That's crazy that the police would run in, see a black man holding a gun over somebody that unjustified, and excessive and unreasonable. And she's suing the officer as well. That's crazy that the police would run in, see a black man holding a gun over somebody that was shot, and immediately think the black person is the threat when he's the one who defused the whole situation. Yeah, he was a hero. All right, now let's talk about some Wisconsin high schoolers. They posed in a Nazi salute last spring,

and now police are investigating. It was a photo showing a group of male who are mostly white Wisconsin high schoolers. They posed in a Nazi salute last spring and now police are investigating. It was a photo showing a group of male who are mostly white Wisconsin high school students. That's about 100 of them. It looked like 75. It's not just a couple. Show that picture again. Now the images of the students. All I see is mayonnaise. Too much goddamn mayonnaise.

This guy is stupid. And the picture was tagged Baraboo Proud and that picture has since been taken down. School officials are going to look into it further, is what they are saying. The district superintendent tweeted out that it is not reflective of the educational values and beliefs of the school district of Baraboo. Now, there was one student who actually did not put his fist up, and he looked visibly uncomfortable. He wished to remain anonymous, but since then he has responded and said that he had to deal with bullying while he was in school all this time and that's why he did not participate and he knew it was wrong.

First of all, he shouldn't have been in that damn picture at all. Okay? He should have moonwalked. Well, you know what he said? It was five seconds. Like, he didn't even have time to get out because the picture happened so fast. He said the photographer told him to do that. All right.

Really? As soon as the photographer said say. And he said it all happened so quick. Say Nazi salute. Like, whoa. He did look like he was separating himself. But he said he didn't have time to move. Oh, that was the kid over to the right look like.

Yeah. Mm-hmm. All right. So they are investigating. We'll let you know what happens. You see him all the way on the, if you have a vote, CB, you can see him on the last step in the back. He's the only one that's kind of looking like, what's going on?

I hate mayonnaise. That's when the sandwich got way too much mayonnaise on it. Too much goddamn mayonnaise! It's not even edible. You can't eat that sandwich. Like, I'm disgusted. Throw this potato salad out, please. Who put all this mayonnaise in the tuna?

Goddamn it, who ruined this good sun kiss? All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Front Page News. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. You die of sodium. You're going to die of too much sodium intake. Now, when we come back from the City Girls, she goes by the name of Young Miami. Young Miami.

The City Girls is two. One is locked up, JT. JT is locked up. And we're going to kick it with her when we come back. So don't move. Yes. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning. Welcome. For all of those who don't know, the City Girls is two of y'all. Young Miami and JT. I know

I can't give an exact date because we don't have an exact date, but she will be home next year, like the top of next year. Do you press 5 every time she calls? Every time. Every time, no matter what. Let me tell y'all, sometimes I miss Shae T

because she in the feds, so they got video business. So sometimes I miss her business because I'm on the plane. When I miss her business, it's worse than the call. Like, we don't talk. Like, she'll ignore my email. She won't talk to me. I'll be like, girl, I was on the plane. She'll be like, I don't care. I'll be like, what you want me to do? The Wi-Fi don't work that good. Yeah. she ain't know my email. She won't talk to me. I be like, girl, I was on the plane. She be like, I don't care. I be like, what you want me to do? The Wi-Fi don't work that good.

Yeah. Let's start from the beginning. How did y'all meet each other, and how did y'all start, City Girls? Okay, so me and JT, we grew up together. We went to the same middle school. We went to Cary City Middle School. I've been knowing JT probably since I was like 14. We used to always be at the same teen club, because in Miami it's fast. So, we was

16, 17 in teen clubs. Right. Going home 2 o'clock in the morning. So we met like in school and then at parties. So we met friends and childhood friends. And then one day,

JT, she used to be in a little rap group with her friends in high school. Little rap group. Little rap group. Yeah, they used to bang pink flags. It was called Pretty Bitches Bang Pink.

And one day She just called me And was like Karisha Let's do this song I got these two beats Let's rap And I'm like Girl like

What the f*** Like I ain't no rapper What you But you never rapped before Never So she called me She was like Karisha let's do this song

And I'm like She's like I got these two beats I'm like girl what No She was like come on So she sung me this song She was like Rap your part

You know Just do your part So I was like alright i went to the car wash i'm listening to the beat i called her i was like come on she came to my house we sitting in the car i'm like girl we don't even know about no studio what studio we gonna go to i called this um rapper from miami his name iceberg no iceberg yeah and i'm like kimmy and jt come to your studio we want to record this song he like y'all for real? And I'm like, yeah. But JT was like, man, he real serious about music. He say music serious.

So it was like, we don't know if he want to go to his studio because he going to be hard on us. But that was the best thing we did. Because when we went in there and I was rapping, he was like, you know, if y'all want to take this series, y'all got to be like this. So we was in there. We probably went to the studio like, I'm going to say

9 o'clock, wingly to like 6 in the morning. He was asleep. To do one song. Then the next day, he bucked on us. We called him back like, we don't like the way

the song sound. We want to come back. We had to use all that man's studio time. Did you have to pay him? No. Okay. Because he got his own studio.

But he was recording. He just didn't want to tell us. No, he was like, man, my equipment messed up. I got to get it right. So like the next day, but he was recording. He just didn't want to tell us. No, he was like, man, my equipment messed up. I gotta get it right. So like the next day, that song is horrible. Like the first That never came out. No, it's f***ing good. That's what that was? Yeah, but we

recorded like, we probably recorded it like 10 times. But the next day I did good. So we went to the studio. My little cousin had a studio. It was like in a warehouse. My cousin was the engineer. And we was in there. We kept recording and recording and recording. And I told JT, I said, listen, I'm not doing this

song no more. Because we'll go to the studio at 1 o'clock and we'll leave at 6 a.m. to sun up. I got a baby. I'll be getting home. It's time to take my baby to school. I said, JT, I'm not doing it no more. Like, you know, we just playing. We ain't no rappers for real. We finna put this song out and however it go, it go. We put it out and it took off.

So y'all never quite got it right? Okay. When P them got that song they tried to mix that song down. They said, man, where y'all record this song at? So y'all got signed to QC off y'all first record? Yes. No. How the song get to P? It got to Coach. Got to Coach. Okay. Cause

P ain't feelin' City Girls. P ain't feelin'? P did not understand the City coach. You got the coach. Okay. Because P ain't feeling city girls. P didn't feel it. P didn't know. P did not understand the city girls. I remember the first time we met P. He came to Miami

with LaBaby. LaBaby was hosting G5. And we had met coach. Coach felt in love with the city girls. He was like I love

y'all. Y'all authentic. I get it. So we put out the song. We had them pat out G5. G5 is a big club

in Miami. I love G5. Our first show was at this club called Heads and Tails out G5. G5 is a big club in Miami. I love G5. Our first show, it was at this club called Heads and Tails. On our way there, it was a big fight. They was shooting,

people running. We like, man, we ain't gonna never make it. We just trying to, you know. Who was fighting, y'all crew or just in general? Just the people there, some boys.

So we got there, they fighting, people running. We like, we in the car by the car like them. You know what I'm saying? Like our first show,

but we went in there, the people still came inside and they sung that song word for word. So that's car by the car like them. You know what I'm saying? Like our first show. But we went in there. The people still came inside. And they sung that song, Bird for Bird. So that's how we got noticed by them. And then JT had Whitney Shell when the song came out. And then every time she called me, I'm like, JT, they playing our song in the club. She's like, I don't care about no song girl. I just got indicted.

You're talking about the song in the club. But I'm like, what else we going to do? You know what I'm saying? When you come home, you can't go back to that and I ain't doing nothing so we gotta figure it out. I'm trying to be

an Instagram model at this point, right? I'm just being honest. You was gonna slap Tommy T. I was trying to get there. I was almost there

so I was like, you know. How did you almost get there? Because my followers was getting there. I was like an 80K followers. You know, I had my little baby suits. I had my little camera.

You know, I was going to pursue my little career. So I tell the JT, I'm like, you know, this God plan for us, like, is working. I'm like, you got to come home, and we finna rap. She got out, and we did a song. We did a freestyle, E to the A. And then we dropped that, and from when she got out, we was in the studio. How many records did y'all record before she had to go back in? We did.

Our whole album that we got coming out on the 16th, Girl Code. Girl Code. We did. One thing about P, P don't play with the city girls. He be on our head. Me and JT, we get in the studio. You know, we want to be on Instagram. We want to fake it out.

We work and do our little videos. P be caught. Y'all better have the records done. Y'all girls go get caught you know he stay on top of us and that's what we need cause you know like we be slacking but he stay on top of us so the whole time she was out he was on our head y'all better be in the studio we had a studio every day up until she went in the gym. And that's how the period mixtape came about? Yeah Pee don't play with us. When did P come around, though? Did he come around after that show that night,

or when did he come around? Coach came around. Okay. Let's be clear. Coach came around, like, we got signed November 30th. We put that song out in August. We got signed November 30th. Well, Coach came to Miami.

It was BET Hip Hop Awards. He came to Miami. He met us at Circle House. He was like, I want to sign y'all girls. I love everything y'all doing. Y'all authentic. Y'all from the hood. I understand it. We was like, well, JT got an open-faith case. He was like, I know about that already. I don't care about that. I'm going to help y'all.

I'm going to get her a lawyer. Then Pete probably came like three weeks. I can't remember the time frame. We met him at his hotel and he was like, y'all girls not a rap? What songs y'all sing? He was just like, I was texting JT. I'm like, oh, my God, he hate us.

He took us to the club, gave us money, and turned us up. Next thing you know, we had changed numbers with P. We was in a group. He loved us ever since. Y'all want him over. Y'all want him over. He took us from coach. Now we P girls.

How has it been adjusting, you know, to the industry from the streets? For me, I still didn't adjust. It don't hit me yet. Like, I go to the mall by myself. And when I go to the mall, people be like, you're Miami, you're Miami. And then my uncle be telling me, like, you can't do that. Like, you got to be with a bodyguard. And I'm just be like, that ain't me.

I don't want to walk around with no bodyguard all day. Like, I just still want to feel good. I want to, I'm in my hood, so I feel like I'm safe. You got haters, too, though. I got to understand that. So I didn't really adjust to it yet. I'm trying. And it's a fine balance because that's the same thing that make y'all authentic and make people like y'all.

But then you still got to be careful. You got to be indiscreet a little bit. See, me and JT, JT is bad. I'm good. JT is bad in her own way. She's just feisty. She got an attitude. I'm more of like, you can approach me. JT, bad. I'm good. JT is bad in her own way. She's just feisty. She got an attitude. I'm more of like, you can approach me.

JT, she real rude. She be telling the security, stop following me. I don't give a fuck. And I be like, me and her, I be like, girl, don't do that. They may not got to follow you. That's his job. You think jail might be good for her a little bit? Just to maybe calm her down a little bit?

No. Make her a wilder? JT, you just can't change JT. Like, sometimes she be positive. She be like, when I come home, I ain't gonna be mean. You know, that's what her little prison talks. Then she'll text me in the email

when we hang up, she'll be like, when I get out, everybody gotta feel me. She only got a couple years, though, right? She, like, for real, she only got two years. That's what I heard, two years. Yeah, but she not gonna do her whole two years. Alright, we have more with Young Miami from City Girls when we come back. Let's get into her new joint now. It's called Twerk

and it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. We have Young Miami in the building. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, how did the collaboration with Drake come about? I don't know. Drake probably was scrolling on Instagram looking at the City Girls. I don't know. All I know is Peaches called us and was like, hey, Drake wanna do a record with Drake come about? I don't know. Drake probably was scrolling on Instagram, looking at the city girls. I don't know.

All I know is Pete just called us and was like, Drake want to do a record with y'all. I think Drake want QC to manage him on the low. I don't know. That's what I think. That's a little true. But go ahead. So I'm like, he stopped playing with us because Pete liked to play.

He's like, I ain't finna screenshot y'all FaceTiming. He showed us a DM. And we was like, oh my God, bitch, we made it. We finna be on the song with Drake. So we went to Atlanta. We flew to Atlanta because P was like,

this top secret. Y'all finna come do this song at my studio and you sending out a nobody. We finna do this record. It ain't getting sent out or nothing. So we went to Atlanta.

We did the song and that's just how it came about. Who's easier to finesse? Industry or street? Industry. They easy. They're easy. They so, they

like walking legs. Walking legs. They so easy. I mean, you just gotta you just gotta know how to finesse them. You get what I'm saying? Like most girls cause I'm not gonna lie, I talked to a guy that was older than me and he had money and I just felt like I was kind of

scared to ask him for money because I wanted him to think that I had my shit together. And I felt like me asking him would make it seem like I was needy

or I wasn't a boss. But no, you can't do that. Bring it down, boy. Bring it down, young man. It don't matter if you bossed up, if you in your own bag.

Because that was my, that was just, I was like, man, this man, you know, he got his little business going on, this man a boss. I ain I was like, man, this man, you know, he got his little business going on. This man a boss. I ain't about to go and ask this man for no money cause he gonna feel like I'm needy.

Like, you know. Yeah, but he asking you for something I'm sure. Right. So, now that I'm kind of older and I look back on that situation, that's why I feel like that's like another message that I'm using. Like, it don't matter if you a boss and you got your own shit, you can still ask a guy for something

You know as a woman He should do for you anyway He should buy your food He should pay your bills You should be straight You should never have to go in your pocket So all these artists and athletes That be in your DMs

How do you pick and choose Who you want to I'm straight off them You straight off them What I swear to God I'm straight off them Why

Because it's like You gotta really know when they serious. Most of them just want to have fun. Right. Everybody want to have fun right now. That's how I feel. You know what I'm saying? Especially if you a rapper, if you an athlete.

How many are in your DMs now? I don't like to, you know. You ain't got to say no names. I don't like to say it because y'all could DM me. I ain't going to tell. I ain't DM you. I ain't DM you back. I don't never tell. No problem. You you. I ain't DM you back. I don't never tell.

No problem. You ain't about to make my blood pressure go up with y'all young ass girls draining my pocket. But one thing about me, JT always tell me

that she be like, Carisha, you don't care. She be like, she always tell me, she be like, what's wrong with you? First conversation

with a nigga, you be like, you gonna buy me a Chanel bag? I'm just trying to see where y'all head at. Do you feel like you owe a guy something when buy me a Chanel bag? I'm just trying to see where your head at. Do you feel like you owe a guy something when he buy you that bag? Uh-uh.

Yeah. Then I want a wig. I'ma just keep asking. Just for the wig? Just to see. That's how I know if I'ma f*** with you. Yeah. Because if I ask you and you petty, then you petty.

You don't buy nothing back, though? You got money now. Now, yeah. I ain't gonna lie. But back then, hell nah. I ain't buying nothing. But back then, hell no. I ain't buying nothing. You want me. So how is it hard not to, like, go back to your old ways when dealing with these industry dudes?

Because you say they're easy. Look, you know you can finesse them. So how, you know, how do you stop yourself from doing that? Because I don't want to do that no more. Because now I feel like I got something to lose. Now, we've seen these tweets that came out recently about some old tweets about 2013. When you're talking about some Haitian people. Okay.

People were pretty pissed off about this. Okay, so let me tell y'all. Miami Twitter. It's called Miami Twitter. And every year, it's Haitian Flag Day. Mm-hmm. And we just, it's a Miami thing. It be Yanks.

They call it American Yanks versus those. So that was just like the topic that we do every year. We just go in on each other like, you know, they be Yanks. money than y'all y'all trying to steal our hustle y'all you know they they say they ain't been scamming y'all want to be like cuz you know we ain't been scamming then we'll say like y'all Haitians y'all you know y'all coming to America why y'all don't stay in Haiti you know it's just stuff like that it wasn't nothing that I have nothing against Haitians I was just engaging in the topic that we do in Miami. It was all joking, going back and forth,

ranking on each other. And then you had some other tweets about the LGBT community. They didn't like that either. You apologized for those. I didn't tweet nothing about them. I was just talking about my son. I just said that if I saw anything gay in my son, that I would beat him.

But that's just like your mama be like, if you break my table I'm gonna beat the out of you damn me she gonna be out of you she's just saying I don't have nothing to get escape but I was I wouldn't want my son to be gay just being a mother that I wouldn't want my son dating the same sex but I'm around a lot of gay people all the time my style escape my cousin gay I love gay people my favorite cousin that I was gay they don't mean that I have nothing against gay people cuz I don't want my son to be gay.

I think what you're saying that you would beat him, it makes it seem like something's wrong. Yeah. That's how people took it and look at it. But you was young

when you tweeted that, though. I mean, I apologize for it. I don't know why they took it offensive. You said you want somebody to suck on your c**k until your c**k gets a hickey. Mm-hmm.

Why would you want something like that? Because I want them to suck on it and talk c**k. Y'all read that to him. He was so intrigued by that earlier this morning. He was so intrigued. That sounds painful.

Not if he licking it right. You know, some men, a lot of men don't know how to eat ****. That was me. A girl gave me a book back in the day called The Ultimate Kiss. Taught me how to properly eat ****. Yeah, y'all just be licking, licking, licking. It's just be like, oh my God, get up. But you got to teach us though.

I would have never learned. That's taking too much time. At that that point i'm ready to get i'm ready to get to the point like i'm not gonna say no what if you really like the guy he taking care of you and everything but that's the only thing wrong is game trash you got to school them yeah then you know then i have to but if we just you know gonna do us i ain't got time to be teaching you. So you told a guy to get up? Yeah. I was just like, come f*** me. Oh, he had to leave.

I love young Miami. He had to leave. I'm like, just come f*** me. You can just do that and give me water, but if not, let's just get to the point. I ain't even got time for you to be down there. Just come on. That's amazing.

Drop on a Clues bomb for Young K. Come on, man. How's your baby daddy with all the success now? You know, I mean, like... How's your baby daddy's game? Because y'all not together no more. What? Was he the guy you told that to?

He all right. I mean, I'm young too, so I probably don't know what proper it is. How's he with all the success and everything? He good. At first, he, you know. But now he just like, you know, I'm happy for you. Do your thing, you know. He try to get you back?

Of course. Every day, boy, bye. He love the Purpose Club. I know he go see this. I don't want you. What's his name? Give him a shout Club. I know he gonna see this s***. I don't want you. What's his name? Give him a shout out. I don't want you. Why you gonna tell a man you don't want him? You ain't had to say that.

Shout out to my baby daddy, Jai. That's beautiful. So he not the one for you? I mean, I've been knowing him since 2000. He was my first. Is it hard for him to deal with the fact that you are getting more successful

when you're around all these successful men? I'm sure that gotta drive him crazy a little bit. Mm-hmm. Because when I first got signed, you know, he was saying, you f***ing... He was one of them, but now he get it. Yachty, you know, your label mate QC, he said he wouldn't work with Nicki because of the beef with Cardi. So would you

work with Nicki? I just want to stay away from that question. I don't want to get into that. But I am team Cardi. City Girls is team Cardi. Cardi support the City Girls. So you'd fight for Cardi, basically?

Yeah, I love Cardi. I'm team Bardi, period. Well, the album's out this Friday and they're joining us. I'm with you, Young Miami. It's good when you like somebody's music and then you meet them and they just like their records.

Oh, thank you. We don't want to see you out here on no bulls**t though, later on. I'm not. Here you have it. Young Miami City Girls. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Yes, good morning. Drop on the clues

for Young Miami from the City Girls. Can't wait till JT comes home so we can have both of those, both of that double ratchet energy in the studio. You know what I'm saying? I love having conversations with young ladies like Young Miami. It seems like a good time. It makes my blood

flow. Alright. Now, don't forget tomorrow is the Breakfast Club's Change for Change. No, it's not. Yeah, it's actually on Thursday. Oh, I said tomorrow? Yeah, don't get me. Oh, I said tomorrow. You just said tomorrow. No, we all work hard, but I know today's Tuesday.

I got my week structured. I'll be rushing my week. Thursday is the Breakfast Club's Change for Change, powered by Doze Bez. It's the Benefit Project 375. Now, it's an 18-hour radiothon, so we'll be here from 6 a.m. to midnight. So for everybody that's like, oh, why do y'all have to leave the air at 10 a.m.? We'll be here till midnight. Yeah, we did this last year.

Last year we raised over, how much? $800,000. I thought it was more, but if they say $800,000, cool. You know, who got a new car? But somebody said they gave money. They didn't really give it. But we raised over $800,000 for the Gathering for Justice movement last year. Correct.

And all the proceeds are going to Project 375 this year. So we don't see any that it goes directly to them. Tell them what Project 375 is. They're removing the stigma surrounding mental illness through conversation, education, and inspiration. It was founded by Brandon Marshall, NFL player, who just got signed, I think, yesterday. So I guess him being here is not going to happen. So are we allowed to lean...

So are we allowed to lean on Brandon Marshall for money? Even though we're raising money for him? Because, I mean, even though we're on the radio for 24 hours, we still donate. So he should still donate too, right? Yes, I would think so. I think that would be a nice still donate too, right? Yes, I would think so. I think that would be a nice gesture on his part.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he definitely should. I would think so. And all of this goes to, you know, help eradicate the stigma surrounding mental health and raise awareness for mental health in the African-American community. Yeah, there's a lot more people now coming forward talking about their own issues that they've struggled with. And in particular, Brandon Marshall has had his own struggles with mental health also, which he's been vocal about. Yes, and dropping the clues bombs for everybody who tuned in

to In Session Live last night on VH1 with Dr. Jessica Clemons. I was the first patient on the couch. That was a very exhilarating experience. I think you should do it, Envy. I thought about you last night. I really did. What did you think about me? Man, stop it.

I just said what? You know what? When I was on the couch, I thought about you. Man, stop it. I just said what? You know what? When I was on the couch, I thought about you and I said, you know who would be nice on this couch? So you think Envy

needs some therapy? I think everybody needs therapy, but I think it would be good for Envy. I don't know why. I really did. I thought about you,

I thought about Wale, and I thought about Nick Cannon. I did. I said, those three guys could really be on this couch. Three men on the couch with you?

Yes. Why do y'all have to turn every serious conversation? Hush, we're having a moment. Three men on the couch just trying to get to where we need to be and doing what we gotta do to get to where we need to be. It would actually be four if you were there too. So just four men on the couch.

Four men on the couch. What are we wearing? All right. You took it too far. What do you see in Envy that makes you What do you see in me that wants to put me on the couch? The fact that he wants us to explain everything Like he'll be like, Angelina, explain to the people what oxygen is

I just want to know, get to the root of that You know what though, Envy did go through a really dark time I just want to get to the root of his And you did go through therapy Like why does he need an explanation for everything? That's not because of He was told to ask questions at a young age No, what happened was That little kid was always saying, why, why does he need an explanation for everything? But that's not because of why I want an explanation. He was told to ask questions at a young age. No, what happened was... That little kid was always saying, why, why?

No, that's not it. When I did radio on the other side, when I worked at the other station, the person that hired me, Tracy, was like, you have to over-explain things because never think that everybody knows what you're talking about. So explain everything so everybody always knows. Yeah, but you don't got to say, explain to the people what water is. I never say explain what water is. No, I don't. No, I don't. You're being defensive. That's why you don't got to say, explain to the people what water is. I never say explain what water is. Yes, you do.

No, I don't. Yes, you do. No, I don't. You're being defensive. That's why you need therapy. You're being defensive. My God. Okay, maybe he's done.

Just go scrape the medication. Just go scrape the medication. Just go scrape the medication. My God. Explain to the people what medication is. See what I'm saying? That's what I'm talking about. Oh, my gosh.

All right. Well, this could be interesting. So we're raising money for Envy Thursday. No, we're not raising money for Envy Thursday. All right. Well, this could be interesting. So we're raising money for Envy Thursday. No, we're not raising money for Envy. No, but people also tend to think that therapy is expensive. And there's a lot of other ways to get around that. And insurance does cover it, right? Yes.

Yep. In a lot of cases. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way. What are we talking about? Yes. We are going to talk about Nicki Minaj shooting her shot. Who does she shoot her shot at?

All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip.

The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Travis Scott was on with Ellen, and he was discussing a lot of things, including his parenting experiences and the whole delivery

experience with his daughter Stormy. Check out what he had to say. She held me down because it was so scary. This is actually my first delivery room. So she was like walking me through this whole process. It's like this thing called like the placenta that I've just been hearing about. Oh my god.

So I was like, you know, I was fearful of that but I cut the umbilical cord and you know she held it down. Mama KJ. Going. So I was like, you know, I was fearful of that. But I cut the umbilical cord and, you know, she held it down. Mama KJ. Going into it, I was like nervous and scared. You know, we were just like both young. But, you know, when you like first had a baby in your arms, it's just like uncontrollable. It's like this whole like warp, you know? Yeah.

It just takes over your whole body. And I never thought I could just like love something like so hard, you know? I know the feeling. And, you know, by the way, when you eat the placenta as a man, you're able to breastfeed. That's not true. That is not true. So you ate the placenta?

That's what you did? You ate it? I've never eaten a placenta, but I read a story. How do you know? Because Tom Cruise did it a long time ago. So he's a Scientologist. Well, Tom Cruise looks younger than everybody in this room, and he's 97 years old. It could be makeup.

What I'm telling y'all is if you eat the placenta, you're able to breastfeed. Somebody will believe that, though. Google it. You can breastfeed. Don't tell me. Somebody will believe that. Google it. You can Google it. Don't do that. Okay, now let's move on and talk about Travis Scott on Ellen discussing perhaps doing some type of Broadway play. I love like Broadway.

It's just super dope. You do? You love Broadway? Yeah, it's fire. You should write a Broadway show because you write all of your own stuff, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You should write like a whole show. Yeah, I was thinking my next album should be like I do a play for a whole week somewhere.

Just do a play and design a whole play around my album. That could be interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing that. That would be different. All right. Now, by the way, Travis Scott, he had to postpone one of his shows last night. In addition to that, three other shows have also been postponed, and that's due to technical production issues. So the show

in Tampa, upcoming shows in Hartford, Cleveland, Milwaukee, all of those are being postponed to a later date. So if you do have tickets to any of those shows, they are going to announce those rescheduled dates shortly. Okay. Alright, Nicki Minaj, in the meantime, was at the People's Choice Awards,

and she decided to take that time to shoot her shot on somebody in the audience. Shout out to Donatella Versace for custom making this outfit for me, and shout out to Michael B. Jordan because he's going to be taking it off of me tonight. Okay, all right. What's wrong with that? Nothing. I was just pointing out that she's shooting her shot, and maybe we're going to help push this along.

Yeah, women can shoot their shot, too. You know, a lot of guys are naive. A lot of women can be flirting with a guy, and a guy won't even know that the woman is flirting with him. But he knows this one. Exactly. That's very direct and to the point. Yeah, I think he's aware right now.

In the meantime, you know, he said he doesn't even have a girlfriend, just so you know. He's single, doesn't even know what it's like to date. Oh, really? Yes. It's about 10 furious white women right now. Shut up. How dare you not claim me, Michael B. Jordan?

Now, Nicki Minaj, in the meantime, you know, has been dating Lewis Hamilton, and she posted him after he won. And she put, congratulations, sweetheart. Hashtag champion, Lewis Hamilton. So proud of you. How does that make him feel? You just shot, and then you congratulate me?

Listen, at least he got acknowledged Maybe it's just all entertainment and he knows that Yeah, he's like, whatever, you're just doing a little bit of flirting It gotta hurt a little bit, though Baby, you can rip my clothes off If you're dating Nicki Minaj She's gonna rap like that in her music anyway She's gonna put those kind of suggestive lyrics in her music

She did a whole dream song Talking about industry guys she wanted to sleep with. So you can't take it. It's all entertainment. You can't take it seriously. Right. And, you know, for Michael B. Jordan, look, he said this in GQ because he's on the cover. He said, I'm very mature and advanced in a lot of areas of life.

Dating may not be one of them. I don't really know what dating is. How are you breaking all these white women hard this morning, Michael B. Jordan? All these white women we see you out here with that we see clearly see you on dates on dates with you. Now you don't not claiming none of them. So Michael B. Don't be that way. I'm Angela.

Yeah. That is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss. Yeah. Yes. We give it a donkey to. We need police in Chicago to come to the front of the congregation.

We like to have a word with all of them. I mean, the ones who are responsible for killing Jamel Robertson. Okay. We'll get to that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Your mornings will never be the same. Continue the adventure with Newt Scamander as he teams up with Albus Dumbledore to stop that dark wizard Grindelwald's plans to divide the wizarding world. Fantastic Beasts, The Crimes of Grindelwald. In theaters Thursday, rated PG-13. You get donkey of the day. Yeah, you dumbass.

You get donkey of the day. Yeah, you dumbass. You are a donkey. It's time for donkey of the day. Donkey of the day, huh? I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes. They want this man to throw them blows, man. They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves.

Let's go. They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day. They chose you. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Who's Donkey of the Day today? Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, November 13th goes to police officers in the Midlothian Police Department in Illinois. First of all, let me say rest in peace to 26-year-old Jamel Robertson.

The latest hashtag on social media because he was gunned down by police. Now, Jamel was an armed security guard at Manny's Blue Room Bar in Robbins, Illinois. All his friends said he had talked all his life of becoming a police officer himself. He had a valid gun owner's license but did not have a concealed carry permit. But he was armed security at this club. A confrontation broke out between several men and one man left to go get his gun. The man came back with his pistol, opened fire in this bar, striking several people. At least four people were injured.

The security guard, Jamel Robinson, did what he was supposed to do and returned fire and apprehended the suspect. You would think he'd be getting some type of Medal of Honor today or something, right? I know, right? I know you're thinking, how did he end up getting killed by the police if he was the good guy? Well, let's go to WGN9 for the report. 26-year-old Jamel Robertson was working as an armed security guard at Manny's Blue Room Bar. Witnesses say security asked a group of drunk men to leave, but at least one person came back with a gun and started shooting. Security returned fire, and witnesses say Roberson apprehended one of the men involved outside.

A Midlothian police officer who responded to the scene opened fire. Four other people, including a suspected shooter, suffered non-life-threatening injuries. State police are investigating the police shooting. Cook County Sheriff's Police are investigating the bar shooting. Now, I've spent a lot of conversations in America about needing armed security in public places, churches, schools, nightclubs, all these places we see these mass shootings need security. I don't disagree with that all right when i walk into the airport in new york especially jfk i feel extra safe because

it's military personnel with choppers everywhere all right i think that you have to create difficulty all right and nothing creates difficulty like a bunch of armed security with ak-47s but this situation right here throws a middle finger to that you know whole theory because what's the point of having armed security if police can't tell the difference between the good guy with a gun and a bad guy with a gun all these mass shootings we hear about whenever it's a member of vanilla isis meaning a white domestic terrorist how many times we read stories where these members of vanilla isis commit these mass shootings and police somehow find a way to apprehend them without killing them why wasn't that same courtesy extended to Jamel

Robertson? Now, one of the eyewitnesses on the scene, Adam Harris, said he saw the whole thing. Let's hear it. Yeah, somebody on the ground with his knee in his back with his gun on him, like, don't move. Everybody was screaming out security. He was a security guard, and they still did their job and saw a black man with a gun and basically killed him. Somebody has to explain to me how mass shooters, members of Vanilla Ice, shoot people, kill people, get apprehended, and then get questioned. All right, police officers walk in, see a black man with a gun, standing over a man, got his knee in his back,

a man who wanted to be a police officer. All the witnesses there telling the police, hey, this guy is the good guy, he's apprehended the suspect. Did he get told to even drop his weapon? Were they listening to the people telling them jamel robertson was not the bad guy you know pretty hard to tell who's the bad guy and the good guy nowadays all right uh pretty hard to do in america when the perception is white is right and black is black black is bad and not bad meaning good either but bad meaning bad and not just bad dangerous and threatening you. You know, I once heard a quote. The quote is, we must not allow other people's limited perception to define us.

Very hard to do when the perception that defines us in the eyes of some people in America gets us killed. Please let Remy Ma give Midlothian police the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. It's DJ MV Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building.

My guy. Van Lathan. What's poppin', y'all? Welcome, sir. Van Lathan. They call you, a lot of people like to say the guy from TMZ. Are you tired of hearing that? Yeah.

F*** yeah. Well, tell us your story. We know you from TMZ. How did you get to TMZ? And tell us your whole process. Well, I was unemployed. You know what I mean, in the economy. Like, I was working at a different production company. And it, like, it was crazy because the production company hit us on, like, a Monday.

And I was like, today's the last day of the company. Yeah. Like, you're done. Everybody's done. So I was unemployed for a little while, and I was just freelance writing. Writing, just trying to get any type of job to kind of keep my craft sort of sharp. Was you in L.A. now or Louisiana? I was in L.A. I had been in L.A. since like 2008.

And I was living a good unemployed life for like a year and a half, man. I was playing basketball every day, collecting the unemployment check. And I walked into the gym and this lady came up to me. She was like, yo, we're going gonna have you do this on-camera survey and if you do the on-camera survey and uh we like you we're gonna have you go further on into this process and then you have a chance to make a thousand bucks i go out to this um this this warehouse in van nuys and it's supposed to be a survey where i use all of these different products right so i do all of this stuff products, right? So I do all of this stuff, right?

And he goes, after you do all of this, now you got to shave with the razor. What? In the mirror. So I'm shaving with the razor in the mirror. How homeless did you look? But look, to me. I can't believe you might be the only person that would do all this. It worked, though.

But look, to me, it's like they say, yo, you're going to make $1,000. I'm like, when you're unemployed, that's like a bunch of money. Right. So I'm like, so I do all of this stuff. And while I'm shaving with the razor, a dude pops out with a camera. And he's like, yo, are you ready for the Gillette Fusion Pro Glide Challenge? And I'm like, it's a commercial. Right.

And so we do all of this stuff. I go back and forth with the guy. I walk back into this room and it's a whole production crew and everybody's like, ah, you did so well and stuff like that. We did the whole thing. We went back and forth. I thought it went really well. And then when I got back there and I was filling out the paperwork, they were like, listen, this is on a Saturday. So you get double the rate. So you're actually going to walk out of here with eighteen hundred bucks and you're going to get a five hundred dollar holding fee every time we run the commercial. And I was like, wow, this is dope.

So me being the honest American that I am, the next time my unemployment came, I put the money that I made onto the unemployment thing, right? Because you get paid from your unemployment based upon the money you made that year. The money you made that year. Yeah. When I did that, it readjusted my quarterly earnings for $1,800. So my unemployment went down from $500 to $75 a year. Wow.

Yeah. And so I'm like, well, the good life is over. I got to get a job now, right? And when I went on there, the first thing that was there was developing and being a part of the TMZ tour. What website was that? Entertainmentcareers.net. Gotcha. And I wrote all this stuff.

And then I decided, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to use my writing skill. I wrote like a funny cover letter to my resume. They called me right in, right away. And now I've been with TMZ ever since. But you said TMZ tours. So that's the bus that goes around. That's the bus that goes around.

That never spots any celebrities. I was a tour guide. You were a tour guide? I was a tour guide. This is so-and-so's house? Wow. No,'s the bus that goes around. That's the bus that goes around. I was a tour guide. You were the tour guide? I was a tour guide. This is so-and-so's house? No, not the houses. We don't do the houses. It's a celebrity tour, right? So you go around and you tell people about things that happened, TMZ, things that happened in different neighborhoods. How'd you get in the building now? You were on the bus.

That was the Astro Glide Challenge. No, man. Hari got on the bus and he saw me do my tour. And he was like, we need to have you in the office. Now, do you ever catch flack for some of the things posted on TMZ? Of course. Of course. Like Angela Simmons' baby daddy killed.

People were so mad. That was disrespectful. That was her ex-fiance. Look at the headline now, though. Right, they changed it. Of course. So, like, for me, what I would tell people is, I think, for me working there, I started to understand that, like, especially when you're talking about black and brown people, even when things aren't done purposely to hurt you, they still do,

and the language can still be coded. And that's why sometimes it's important to have someone that can relay the message of just how insensitive or hurtful something can be. Right. I mean, see, that's the thing, though. You know, you have a lot of culturally clueless people, but that's why you need, we need to have seats at those tables.

Yeah. To stop stuff like that from happening. You can take the 10 best people in the world, right, and put them in a room. If there's no diversity, it's going to be about 10 minutes before something stupid happens. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They're going to say something, they're going to say and do something stupid if there's nobody in the room to express their sort of history and their concerns. But yo, man, that's not how we do it, whatever. That's how you get Kylie Jenner Pepsi commercials. That's how you get Kylie Jenner Pepsi.

Which one was that? It was Kendall. It was Kendall. That's because there's nobody there to go, yo, that doesn't look right. Did you ever feel weird about Harvey being a Trump supporter and being really vocal about it? I didn't feel weird about it. I felt

it was a real point of contention. You know what I mean? I think what we've seen in this past election is that it seems like mainstream America is disappointed when they see racism and they're not outraged. I think we're outraged at it

because these things directly affect our lives. Damn right. And it's very frustrating to have a conversation with somebody or anyone where something directly affects you

and it's a mild annoyance to them. Yeah, it's like, oh, he's making the economy good. Oh, who cares? Like, who cares? He's done, oh, he's making the economy good. Oh, who cares? Like, who cares if... He's done some good, he's done some bad.

Right, who cares if, like, you can't pay me enough money to call me an a**hole. So it doesn't really matter how good the economy is. Shut up. Shut up. 100 million? Nah, I can't be in the $400 million. What the context is?

I mean, maybe if we're in a movie or something, but if I know that that's how you view me, there's not enough money in the economy that can make me okay with that. So for me, going back and forth with him, it was frustrating in seeing that perspective taken. But now that he is adamantly against Trump, I feel vindicated.

Is that real, though? Or is that because of the backlash? I don't think that there was as much backlash as people think that there was. But I think that it's real. But I think there's also some things that Trump did and said started to affect things that Harvey really cared about. Like the LGBT community.

Right. Yeah. People don't care until it affects them. Wait a minute. I think that some people put things past Donald Trump. Some people that knew

Donald Trump from the past had thought, you know, oh my God, this guy's not as bad as what we think he is and all of those things like that. And I think they put

some things past him. To me, when somebody is standing in front of you telling you what they mean, you got to take them at their word. You know, I do think in a lot of ways, Harvey gets a bad rap. I think Harvey's not as bad as people try to make him out to be.

Am I wrong? For me, he's been like somebody who has really championed the position that I've had on the show. But he does need you on there. Well, I wasn't on there before. Right. But it helps because there were a lot of things that were happening that we were like, what the hell is going on with TMZ?

Yeah, I think he welcomed the diversity in the room. And even artists complaining about how come the only time you guys report on hip hop artists or people of color is something negative. And people have definitely expressed that and felt like that. Sure. I mean, for me, there's a certain way that I want black people and black culture to be portrayed always. And that's fairly. So it's my job and my challenge, along with Raquel and Lauren

and the other people in the room, to make sure that it's covered fairly and it's covered accurately. And also I would say to those people, it's like, before anything goes up on TMZ about anyone, they reach out to your people. They want to talk to your people. They want to get in touch with your people to understand what happened. Give you a chance to give you a side. Right. And if we can't do that,

then, you know what I mean? It's a little tougher. But still, it's on me and on the other people in the office to kind of champion, you know, that side of our culture. Alright, we got more with Van Lathan when we come back. Of course, we got to discuss when Kanye popped up at TMZ. So don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Van Lathan in the building. You might know him from TMZ or the Red Pill podcast. Now, when Kanye West came up, you know, the second time he came, you didn't show up to work that day.

But what was on your mind when he came up? What were you thinking? No, Van was at work. Just Harvey chose to do the interview with Kanye. I had nothing to do with it. I think Harvey should have fell back and let Van interview Kanye one-on-one. That's what I think. I wasn't interested in interviewing Kanye.

What did you think of the whole Kanye incident? What did you think of it after? It's funny because I called Sean Mayne right away, and I was like, yo, I just had a yelling match with Ye in the office, man. It was crazy. I thought... And then my phone beeped, and I was like, yo, I just had a yelling match with Ye in the office, man. It was crazy. I thought— And then my phone beeped, and it was Kanye on the other line saying, I just had a yelling match with the black guy. The black guy.

Nah, after the first time—I mean, listen, I've been disillusioned with Kanye West for a little while. So I wasn't expecting, you know, anything—I wasn't expecting for that sort of image in my mind to change, but the level to which he became unhinged in the office was surprising to me. Just because he was in there, and then all of a sudden, camera's on, go time, and he's all over the place. Was he like that before the cameras came on?

No. But at the same time, before the cameras came on, he was making a point, and I will say this, to go and exchange energy with anybody that was in the room. Yo, I'm Kanye West. Hello. Hugging people. But when he got up there and he had what he wanted to say, that's when he started to get a little bit more passionate. But when he was up there talking to Harvey and Charles, I was disgusted. Legitimately disgusted.

Disgusted at sort of what this incredible cultural leader had become. In that moment, everybody is entitled to their opinion, but we're not going to change the facts about the people that got drugged and strung up so that we could even have the freedom to sit in this room. And say slavery was a choice. But people did try to, I guess, explain what he was saying and say, well, what he meant was. I mean, what he meant was, he was talking about mental bondage.

No, I don't think that that's true. Well, he did say that right after he said the slavery was a choice. I think that he walked it back, but I think if you watch what he said, it's very clear. What was it, 400 years of slavery was a choice? He said 400 years, that sounds like a choice to me, so let's break that down, okay? What you're saying is you're, to me me and maybe i'm being too sensitive about it to me you're sort of implying in some way that there was some sort of weakness uh on behalf of people that were born into bondage right that were dehumanized to a point to where every single

second of the day uh they were reminded that they were the lowest things in the world. Oh, they were weak, but they were conditioned to be weak. I don't think that we can call them weak. I think that they were incredibly strong to have survived that. Okay. I don't think that there's any way that we can call them weak. They were incredibly strong to have endured that. Or the conditions weakened them physically. The conditions weakened them physically, but at the same time,

I think it's incredibly off base to assign any weakness to them. You know what I mean? That's like when people be like, if that was me and I would have been alive during sleep. You don't know what you would have done. And you can't judge what that was like because we have no idea. And you really can't judge it when you're in a situation to where your child is there, right? Your old grandmother is there, right? Your wife is there, right?

To me, even to imply that, you've got to walk that back. And to be honest with you, he would have been able to talk everything, and I wouldn't have said anything. But that, when I'm from the South, my dad would drive me around and look at a low-hanging tree and be like, just let you know it's a bunch of souls on that tree. Never forget. That didn't sit well with me.

What do you think the second time he came up? The second time, it seemed like, I got another album coming out. This got a lot of buzz and press the first time. Let's go back. Let's go back. But at the same time, there's no way I can say that, that that's really what... It's what it felt like. It's what it felt like.

So for him, he always has all kinds of weird reasons why he does stuff, so who knows what his plans are. Now Van Lathan, one fact about Van, Van used to be 600 pounds. No, I wasn't 600 pounds. How big were you? I was about 360 pounds. 360 pounds. How'd you lose so much weight?

For me, I just got tired of being fat. It was a lot of work for me. In Louisiana, you had all that weight in Louisiana. I had it in California, too. Okay, okay. So when you flew cargo from Louisiana to L.A., what made you want to lose weight? Stop it. This dude is dumb.

How do you feel about fat shaming? Because, you know, Charlamagne fat shames a lot of people. People get mad sometimes. I'm a fat shaming man now. He's not even fat no more. But he fat shames me about past fatness, which to me doesn't make any sense at all. I don't want to go backwards. You know what I'm saying?

To me, I think fat shame is disgusting. The one thing I'll say is that unless you're living in a body where you feel bad about your self-image, you don't understand how oppressive that can be. So many different parts of your life are affected by negative self-image, right? You get on a crowded bus

And you sit down And you're taking up two seats And you're like Damn The people around me Look at You know what I'm saying You go

Like you go to a barbecue Everybody else eating See the skinny The skinny dudes can eat As much as they want At the barbecue Right But

The fat guys You have an extra thigh Everybody like this fat ass Eating up all the barbecue chicken. Yeah, but then they do stupid stuff like, yo, load the plate, but then be like, yo, let me get a Diet Coke. Yeah, I used to do that. Exactly.

I used to do that at Chick-fil-A. I got called out at Chick-fil-A one time. And you get on the plate. What? I got called out at Chick-fil-A one time. Not the Chick-fil-A employees. They ain't there today. The Chick-fil-A employee called me out.

I remember I got all this stuff. When I was in college, I got like a, because I have a Chick-fil-A power meal, I used to call it, which was, I had power meals everywhere. Power meals? Yeah, I had power meals. The Chick-fil-A power meal was, it was a 12-piece nugget, the four-piece strips, a large fry, small fry, a cookie.

All that? Yeah. He was 600 pounds. I would eat the cookie, and then I was like, I diet Coke, and the girl was ringing me up. She goes, get you, get all that big-ass meal and get a Diet Coke. Why don't you just go and get a milkshake or something like that? I'm like, yo.

Who is this Popeye's employee on the cover at Chick-fil-A? I'm telling you, this is like 99. I was in college. And, like, I was told, just give me a regular Coke then. Do you think that was something that you were conditioned, like, from when you were young, you just had unhealthy eating habits just like being at home when you grew up in your community or how did that even? It made me feel

good. Like for me there were so many other things in my life that I was unhappy with. The one thing that I knew I could get a lot of happiness from was food. That's why you didn't get a happy meal. Shut up. So I was eating feelings,

you know what I'm saying? And then, you know, that's one of the first things you unlearn when you lose a bunch of weight. Right. So what made you lose the weight? What was the last draw

was like? I was crawling up the stairs, like on all fours. So I wouldn't be out of breath. Did discrepancy of Hollywood make you want to lose weight? No, not at all, because to me,

I wasn't in that. Once I did lose weight, things started happening better for me, like exponentially. Now, you also have your podcast. The Red Pill. So what made you decide that you had to have your own thing? And TMZ supports it heavily. So it's like part of their network or is it just something you independently? It's a partnership between TMZ and me and then loudspeakers, of course.

So, I mean, for me, the podcast was just it was sort of an exercise for me to know whether or not I could do that and get people that I respect to talk about real situations in their lives. It's been going great. I got to sit down and talk to a lot of people that I'm that that I find intriguing because you always wonder how someone got to the point that they are. And so that's been a lot of fun for me just kind of having those different interviews. Well, we appreciate you

for joining us, Van. No problem, man. Ladies and gentlemen, it's Van Latham at The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report

with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Waka Flaka says that he may possibly want to retire from rap. Now he was sitting down with Rock Rance and here's what he said. I've been giving up. That's my wife.

They boogie me. Like, I don't want to work. Yeah, he does. They boogie me to put new music on. Why don't you want to rap anymore? Because I did what I came to do. I made past $30 million. Everybody I started with is rich.

Everybody's happy. I don't have nothing else to do. Everybody else that didn't make it, they died, or they got kids. My right-hand man that's running the streets with me is a pastor. Like, it's life change for me. Like, people want me to be hard in the paint. Walker, but I'm 32 years old. I'm a grown-ass man.

I'm just going to be a good husband. I'm about to make a baby next year. What Flock is saying is I'm 32 years old, and performing hard in the paint makes my knees hurt. Okay? It makes my back hurt. All right? He's a ball player.

He should be fine with it. Walker Flock is a ball player? I mean, he was. He used to play ball. Oh. Yeah. I would think he could handle that. I still listen to Walker Flock's first album in the gym, Heavy.

Oh, Let's Do It, Hard in the Paint. All right. Well, in addition to that, remember previously he said he'll no longer talk about his fallout with Gucci. Well, here's what he had to say about that. If we ever had problems, beef, anything, I'm telling you right now, for me, bro, it's awful. Like, I ain't talking to my best friend. My little brother, why don't I listen telling you right now for me bro it's awful like I didn't talk to my best friend my little brother why almost a year oh because we were stuck in ego and all like that just because the industry changed us like we were young man with dreams and we really succeeded but this game changed us and we finna take this back hey gooch Gucci, nigga, let's sit the f*** down. All that playing over with, man.

You know how to get me, big dog. You call me. Nobody else. I respect that. I would love to see Waka Flaka and Gucci Man reconcile, just because they were so close back in the day. Right, and their issues had to do with him not giving Waka's mom the proper credit that he felt like she deserved. Also,

he did say that Gucci's memoir was full of lies. Who said that, Flaka? Yeah. Oh. Also, he did say that Gucci's memoir was full of lies. Who said that? Flogger? Yeah. Oh. Alright, now let's talk about, speaking of books, Michelle Obama's new book, Becoming, which as we told you prior to this, has gotten into Oprah Winfrey's book club. This is the first

book club pick that she's had from the political world since she started her book club back in 1996. Now here is some more things that Michelle Obama discussed with Oprah as far as her not even wanting her husband Barack Obama to run for president. I never wanted to be involved in politics and I knew that Barack was a decent man but politics was ugly and nasty and I didn't know that my husband's temperament would mesh with that but then on the flip side you see the world and the challenges that the world is facing and I didn't know that my husband's temperament would mesh with that. But then on the flip side, you see the world and the challenges that the world is facing.

And I thought, well, what person do I know who has the gifts that this man has? How do you say no to that? So I had to take off my wife hat and put on my citizen hat, as I've said, and say, how can I stand in the way if I know that this man could do good? And that felt selfish and small. And I couldn't be the person that stopped it. That's real. She couldn't be selfish in that moment.

Her husband is a public servant who was here to affect the lives of many. Now, since we're talking about a Michelle, now let's switch over to Michelle Williams. Now, we had Chad. It's a hard turn. Michelle on here. Chad loves Michelle. Is there a series that's on OWN where they're going through all kinds of issues with their relationship

and talking to a counselor and just getting ready for their marriage. Now, there was something that went viral from the latest episode, and that was the two of them basically discussing race. And Michelle's saying there's a lot of things that Chad can't understand. That's Michelle Williams that Chad can't understand because she's a black woman. He had a disagreement. I said something to him on the lines of, well, Chad, because you are not black, you would not understand why I communicate the way I do. Maybe because you didn't grow up around a lot of black people.

And so that was very, very offensive to Chad. To me, it doesn't matter if you're black, white. If you know that the other person was like, I didn't like the way you said that, then seek to find some understanding as to why that person didn't like what you said. And let's keep that the issue, not pull in all these other things, because then it feels like you're just trying to cut. All right. Well, it goes on.

They went on to discuss what are you confused about what is what is he telling her not he's telling her to dismiss racism out the equation that's what he's saying he doesn't think that it should be a factor in every topic is what he's saying now it goes on to this and this is what really had people annoyed when we had the disagreement he says did you take your meds today now that but wait wait that was dr tema i would never go there and i apologize you shouldn't go there regardless and i don't think you should ever go there with black and white and it was after she she said again and that's and then and i got mad and i was like did you take your meds today she knows how to cut apples and oranges

though you know what i'm saying like of all, if you know that your woman deals with some type of mental illness, you shouldn't say things like, did you take your medication today? That's kind of dismissive of whatever it is she's going through. And you also can't dismiss her feelings about race. Exactly. And their relationship because there are different ways that we communicate.

That is something that has to be discussed in a relationship especially if they're having communication issues. But that's the epitome of white privilege, right? The epitome of white privilege is you don't have to factor in race in any equation. When you're black, you have to think to yourself constantly, is this happening because of the color of my skin or is it just a matter of circumstance? Now, she did say that race is an uncomfortable thing Chad and I don't like to talk about, but we're learning that we have to talk about it.

So that's something they are going to have to work on as their union moves forward. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. What are we doing now? Well, now DJ Envy does his people's choice mix. And let's keep it real, okay?

DJ Envy, it's his daughter's birthday today. Yes. Madison's 17 years old. And Envy left to go, she got to take a driver's test, right? Yeah, she had to take her road test. I'm tired.

I was out late last night. I was doing In Session Live with Dr. Jessica Clements, and that was live at 10 o'clock. I didn't leave there until midnight, so I'm tired. You know what? And I flew in from Atlanta last night, and I didn't land until 1230 to the airport. So what you're saying is in this moment,

neither one of us really know what to do. Yeah, I think it's like the People's Choice Mix where he says that people get to choose. Boom, there you go. It's that time of the day. But it's a mix. He's a liar. So whatever you want to hear,

hit up DJ Envy right now at DJ Envy. For no reason. Let him know what you want to hear. You want to waste your time. Hopefully it's in the mix and he's going to get it on for you. That's all.

And Revolt, peace. I thought your Revolt was supposed to be on vacation for the next three weeks. No, starting Thanksgiving next week. Oh, Thanksgiving, okay. They're going to be on vacation
