That's Escape from Z-A-Q-A-S-T-A-N on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. He got my mic on. The board froze. Now it's the board. Good morning, USA. I mean, the God. Beast of the Planet is Tuesday! Oh, my goodness. What the hell's wrong with y'all? Now, they got this big fan or air humidifier or air cleaner. What happened to the glass house between you and Drum? It's still here. Oh, okay, okay.

I guess they put this air cleaner, and it's just loud as hell on my back. I don't hear it. You can't, because it's not next to you. Thank God. Listen, man. We got to move this thing. You know, there's nothing that, you can't because it's not next to you. Thank God. Listen, man. We got to move this thing. You know, there's nothing that causes

a civil war in the house like sooth everybody out there with kids. You know what I'm saying? With a family. You know what I mean? Because there's nothing that causes a civil war

in the house sometimes like dinner. Because, you know, when your wife tries new things, like last night, my wife made this amazing vegan dish. I thought it was amazing.

But when you have three young kids, a 12-year-old, a two years old none of them wanted to eat what mama made so they all ended up eating peanut butter and jelly and before you taste it they're telling you how bad it is so you don't know if you got a fake like it's good or not cuz somebody got to be on the side of the wife mm-hmm that's what happened last night but the food was great I thought thought it was amazing. But the kids wanted peanut butter and jelly. They was not doing the vegan dish at all.

Not even a little bit. So you didn't go old school and eat it, and you're not leaving the table until you finish eating it? No. No. No.

No? No. Okay. I don't think that works out well. Nah. Because then the kid ends up hating whatever it is that you was trying

to get them to eat. But then when they get older, they love it. Exactly. And string beans and spinach. Give them some time. Give them some time. They'll get to it. That's all.

All right. That's all. Yesterday, my son had a football game, which is pretty weird because the school is all virtual. But they still have football, which is weird. It makes no sense. It makes no sense. Maybe because it's outdoors. Maybe. Yeah, maybe. That could be it. But yeah, they. It makes no sense. Maybe because it's outdoors. Maybe.

Yeah, maybe. That could be it. But, yeah, they won last night, so that's why I was at the game. It's getting really, really cold. Today was cold this morning as well. Yeah. I mean, it was 60 degrees two days ago. Depending where you're at, though.

It was 70 degrees two days ago. Keep in mind, we're nationally syndicated. Right. But here in the tri-state area, it's a little nippy. It's definitely that season where your balls get closer to your body. Well, it's also almost December. Very true. That is true, too. Alright, well, 50 Cent will be joining us

this morning. Never heard of him. No? Well, he'll be here. That guy will be here. That rabble rouser. Yeah, that guy will be here. That rabble rouser will be joining us. So we'll kick it with 50 in a little bit. And then we got front page news. What are we talking about? Let's talk about this coronavirus vaccine that they are saying is 94.5% effective.

Lord have mercy. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news.

Now, last night in Monday Night Football, the Vikings beat the Bears 19-13. Now, also James Harden, he rejects Rockets extension. Seems like he's focusing on trading to the Nets. That's not going to be good for the Nets. It's going to be amazing. No, it's not. Why you say that? It's only one basketball.

James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant? Come on, man. That's going to be so amazing for the Brooklyn Nets. I think all those three individuals want to win another ring, and hopefully they'll do what they got to do to do it. Yeah, but can they mesh together? You know how much James Harden holds the ball? You know how much Kyrie Irving holds the ball?

Kevin Durant? I just don't think it's enough basketball to go around. They can all score 30 a game. That's 30 a game, 30, 60, 90. I think Brooklyn got some really good young pieces, and they got two all-stars in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, two NBA champions in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. I would focus on that.

I think they can make that work. Sounds like a super team to me. All right. Now, also, the Phoenix Suns complete trade, and they acquired Chris Paul from Oklahoma City. That's a good trade. Chris Paul and Devin Booker is going to be amazing together. All right.

What else we got, Yee? All right. Well, let's talk about Moderna's coronavirus vaccine. It is a 94.5% effective in preventing infection. That's according to early data that was released. So they said 15,000 participants were given the vaccine and 15,000 study participants were given a placebo. From the 15,000 who were given the vaccine, five of000 study participants were given a placebo. From the 15,000 who were given the vaccine, five of them only developed COVID-19. So that is the 94.5%

effective. And the company said that there's no significant side effects. A small percentage of those who got it did get some symptoms like body aches and headaches. And Dr. Fauci said he expects the first vaccinations to begin toward the later part of December rather than the early part of December. So that is good news. Donald Trump tweeted out another vaccine just announced this time by Moderna, 95 percent effective. For those great historians, please remember that these great discoveries, which will end the China plague, all took place on my watch. He's right. Now, as you know, essential workers

will be the first ones to get this. And there are healthcare workers also. And they're also going to be meeting with the CDC committee to decide who will get the COVID-19 vaccine first. So, of course, it's going to be healthcare workers. That's not even a question. But then they want to see, in addition,

it's going to be most likely those over age 65, people with underlying conditions conditions because they are at high risk for complications. Now, Joe Biden talks about the biggest threat to his transition because, as you all can see, Donald Trump is still not conceding. They're not cooperating. They're stonewalling this new incoming staff in unprecedented ways. And here is what Joe Biden had to say. More people may die if we don't coordinate. Look, a vaccine is important. It's of little use until you're vaccinated.

How do we get over 300 million Americans vaccinated? What's the game plan? They say they have this warp speed program that they not only dealt with getting vaccines, but also how to distribute this. If we have to wait until January 20th to start that planning, it puts us behind over a month, month and a half. Yeah, they got to get those vaccines out. I mean, I feel bad for a lot of those businesses that they're about to go back into shutdown. I mean, they're limiting an amount

of people. That's the people that's got to go into restaurants, into bars, to establishments. A lot of these people just can't survive. And with no more money, no more help, I don't know what they expect people to do. Yeah, they got to, I mean, they got the government has to kick in a stimulus check over the next few months. They're talking about everybody be vaccinated by April. Well, that's another issue. Donald Trump won't work on getting that done right now. And there's no briefings being given about coronavirus troop drawdowns in

Afghanistan and Iraq. They said the silence could continue into December. Until then, they said Donald Trump and his team are continuing to assert that the election was fraudulently stolen from them. They're doing these voter fraud lawsuits and demanding recounts and not giving any information to Joe Biden and his transition team, which could leave us very vulnerable. The media got a lot to do with this, too, though, because, you know, everything Trump said about the vaccine has been true. Trump said it would be a vaccine by the time the election came around.

The media said, no way. Trump said we would have health care workers would get it first and high risk cases. They'd be vaccinated by the end of the year. People was like, no way. Trump said everybody would have it by April. They said, no way. Dr. Fauci and all of them. Now, Dr. Fauci said we wouldn't get back to normal until 2022. And now Dr. Fauci was echoing what Trump has been saying. So it's just like...

I feel like Donald Trump kept saying a vaccine was coming, even before December. Duh. Yeah, he said by the election. Not by December, but he kept saying it would be happening before that too. He said by the election. Not by December, but he kept saying that it would be happening before that too. He said by the election, which just happened, November 3rd, and the first vaccine was announced a couple days

after the election. Then he said by the end of the year, healthcare workers and high-risk cases would get it, and we'd be out of this by April. Dr. Fauci said no, 2022. Now Dr. Fauci is saying exactly what Trump has been saying. So the media has a lot to play with that too, because even Joe Biden said that yesterday. He said the only reason people don't trust the vaccine is because Donald Trump has been saying. So the media has a lot to play with that too because even Joe Biden said that yesterday. He said the only reason people don't trust the vaccine

is because Donald Trump has been saying it. So it's not about the message, it's about the messenger. All right, well, that is your front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hello, who's this? Hello, yes, this is Bryant. And thank you for giving me the opportunity to be on this radio. I've never been on this type of platform. Don't have no social media. I just want to get to the point. My wife, for like a year, been suffering from migraines. And she's been maintaining them with the medication they provided her with.

Over time, they convinced my wife to do a surgery called a stent to put into her vein to stop the pressure from her brain to ease the, excuse me, I'm breaking up, to ease the migraines in her head. And yesterday they went in at 12 o'clock. I drove my wife there and I was laughing with her. We were talking about how she wasn't going to eat the hospital food and they convinced us

that it was going to be an in and out procedure. And she went in and I had to call 30 times. I haven't gotten in touch with no one and when I finally did, they told me that the procedure didn't go right and my wife, my to be might not make it. I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry to hear that, brother. And I know, I'm like, look, look, I've been a stepdad in my stepson life for the last five years. I haven't been the best person in my life, and I'm not going to lie, but she has. She's been perfect for everybody.

What's your wife's name, King? Her name is Tempest. Tempest? Her name is Tempest Harris Baines. And like I said, people might look at me or look me up, and I wasn't probably the best, Her name is Tempest. Tempest. Her name is Tempest Harris-Baines. And like I said, people might look at me or look me up, and I wasn't probably the best, but she's been good to everybody. And now she's fighting for her life, and these doctors,

I feel is nonchalant because I don't have no social media platform. I'm not, like, out there with my wife. I feel like my story might get pushed under the rug, and my wife is sitting in the hospital in Newark, Delaware right now. Just fighting for her life. Well, listen, we got a lot of prayer warriors out there, my brother. So, you know, I'm encouraging everybody out there to take, you know, 30 seconds out of your day and say a prayer for your wife, Tempest, man. I'm a stern believer that prayer changes things. I'm saying my prayer right now for her.

Angel Lee, Charlamagne, and Envy, I really appreciate y'all because, like I said, this is going to get brushed under the rug because I am not no one that's influenced or social media bound. And all they're doing is giving me, can't tell me why they went wrong or what went wrong. They just know that my wife got swollen brain and she's just not going to be the same possibly. And they don't even know if she's going to wake back up. And I don't even know what to do. I might have provided and did things for her. But, you know, like your wife, she was the bill paying,

you know, the accounts, and she knew all the passcodes. And I'm just at a standstill. I had to force my son in New York to a bunch of family members that I truly wouldn't say we act tight in this way, but it takes f***ed up circumstances, excuse my language, to act like they care when we was trying to do it by ourselves. Well, let's remain optimistic, my brother. You know what I'm saying?

Let's remain optimistic. Let's pray. Let's lean on our higher power right now. Let's lean on God right now. Let's throw some. Let's pray. Let's lean on our higher power right now. Let's lean on God right now. Let's throw some prayers in the air. Like I said, all the prayer royals out there, say a prayer for Tempest, man. Let's not think negative right now. You know what I mean?

Absolutely. Her name is Tempest Harris Baines, and I just pray that people just can give the thoughts and prayers, and it's not about the financial gain because at the end of the day, I don't care about none of that right now. I pray that my wife can get better despite whatever situation I might fall under. I just hope that my wife gets

better because I don't know what to do without her. I'm at a standstill. I don't do f*** about no car, no house payment. I just want to. I'm with you, King. I'm with you, brother. I'm about to get on my knees and throw a prayer in the air for her right now. Absolutely, brother. Can I ever call back again?

Of course. They're giving her day-to-day. They're giving me day-to-day updates. And I just want to, if anything goes wrong, I don't have no, I just want to be able to put it out there. Taylor, make sure you get his info, Taylor. Hold on, all right? I appreciate that.

Hold your head, King. All right, man. Prayers up for Tempest, Harris, Baines, man. Let's say a little quick little prayer, man. Let's say a little prayer.

The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. And don't forget, 50 Cent will be joining us next hour. 50. Ah, excuse me. But right now, let's get to the rumors and talk Adrian Broner.

This is the rumor report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfastors. Let's talk Adrian Broner. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. The Rumor has it. On your breakfast club. So listen up. Well, Adrian Broner is considering joining OnlyFans. He is asking people to donate $13 to him. He has an $800,000 debt.

So instead of having to join OnlyFans, he just wants people to help him out with his cash app he gave away his cash app and he said look everybody cash at me and he said we are 799,029 dollars away from paying off my debt i bet you he would get more money if he just finally admitted he's really having money problems instead of trying to front like he's not having money problems and still trying to act like he's got it. And it's his rich friends who are providing it to him. I guarantee you he'd get more sympathy and get more donations if he just admitted he's having real money problems. Maybe he got money. He just don't want to pay the $800,000 that he owes.

That's stupid then, Envy. And by the way, if he had it and there was a debt, they would take it. I mean, they can't take it unless it's in his bank. Where else would it be? Well, you know what? No one agent that might be on this match. On this match is in a shoebox. Well, he's saying that he it unless it's in his bank. Where else would it be? Well, you know what? No, an agent that might be on dispatch. On dispatch is in a shoebox. Well, he's saying that he only has $13 to his name.

In his account. So, I don't know. Maybe he is telling the truth. Maybe I'm the one. Maybe I want to see tears. And you know what I mean? Like, I don't believe him. Well, I believe he's having real money problems, but, you know.

Since we're talking about money, let's talk about Taylor Swift. You know, Scooter Braun has just sold her masters, and that is for $300 million. That's for the rights to her first six albums. He sold that to an unknown investment fund, and, of course, she's not happy about that. She said, I wanted to check in and update you guys. As you know, for the past year,

I've been actively trying to regain ownership of my master recordings. With that goal in mind, my team attempted to enter into negotiations with Scooter Braun. She said the team wanted her to sign an ironclad NDA stating I would never say another word about Scooter unless it was positive

before we could even look at the financial records. So I would have to sign a document that would silence me forever before I could even have a chance to bid on my own work. My legal team said that this is absolutely not normal and they've never seen an NDA like this presented unless it was to silence an assault accuser by paying them off. He would never even quote my team a price. These master recordings were not for sale to me. So then she said she found out from a private equity company. She got a letter. They say they bought 100% of her music and that includes videos and album art

from Scooter Braun. So I guess now what she's planning to do is re-record her older music. Yeah, I was confused with this. Go ahead. And then be able to put that out and profit off of that instead of the old music catalog.

So you can re-record the songs that you have out already and then put it back out and then say, now I can control the masters. So you're telling everybody that, you know, buy this album, not that album. I want to do re-recorded songs do well though. Or do people always want the original versions? You know what I mean?

Cause I've seen, I've heard of people doing that before, but it don't be having that feel like the original one. But I mean, let's be clear. Scooter did nothing wrong. No. This is business. And we got to stop saying those are her masters. The masters belong to whoever owns them.

That is correct. All right? She has not owned them. Yeah, she's not owned them for a while. Scooter bought those masters fair and square. He sold them fair and square. That's business. Man, I think he got, what, $300 million? They said upward of $300 million?

That's business. Mm-hmm. Right. But, you know, again, it is business, and I guess she's upset about it and expressing herself, but there's nothing she could really do about it. Nope. All right. Now, Eve is opening up about her struggles with fertility and she said that she's been really trying we told you that she is exiting the talk and that's because of traveling restrictions and focusing on expanding her family well she's been more open

about that and here's what she had to say I'm 42 now it is you know my husband and I we've been trying and trying and trying and we've been doing certain things and I understand where Emma was coming from with the endometriosis because at the beginning of the year you ladies know I had a procedure called a myomectomy that gets rid of what's the word I'm looking for five words yes but I used to have these horrible periods there's a lot of women out there that think we were told that periods are supposed to be painful. They're not. Go to your doctor.

And if they don't believe you, go to another doctor. Yes, and we've been talking about that a lot, you know, on The Breakfast Club even with Coach Jesse with the fibroids and how many women have fibroids. In particular, black women, a large percentage of black women actually have fibroids. And they try to women, a large percentage of black women actually have fibroids. And they try to make you have surgery and do all these things. They said nearly a quarter of black women between 18 and 30 have fibroids. And that is compared to about 6% of white women.

And by age 35, that number increases to 60%. And black women are two to three times more likely to have recurring fibroids or suffer from complications. Well, let's send some healing energy to Evie Eve. Okay? Absolutely. Send some healing energy to her. And to a lot of women out there, too, I would just suggest that if you want children

and maybe you're getting to an age where it's a little older, have them take your eggs out. I mean, a lot of insurance covers it. And that way, when you take your eggs out, when you finally want to have a baby, maybe when it's a little later in your life, you still have those healthy eggs. So everybody out there, just look into it.

Just call your doctor, call your insurance company, because a lot of times they cover that procedure. Yeah, I've got a couple of homegirls who did that procedure. It's costly, though. Yeah, it's costly. Sometimes they cover it. Unless your insurance covers it. They don't cover all of it, though.

Correct. Maybe part of it. All right, well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right, thank you, Ms. Yee. Now we got front page news coming up. What are we talking about? Yes, and we are going to be talking about Michelle Obama,

what she has to say about their whole transition and Donald Trump. 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.

Hey, what up, y'all? It's DJ Envy. And if you're looking for auto insurance customized just for you, you need the General Insurance. They have excellent customer service, and they have been in business for over 55 years. Call 800-GENERAL or visit thegeneral.com today. Some restrictions apply. All right, morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Gee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news. Now on Monday Night Football, the Vikings beat the Bear 19-13. All right, now James Harden, he rejects the Rockets extension. Looks like he's focusing on his trade to the Nets. So we'll see how that works out. Depends what the Nets got to give up for him. That's got a lot of good young pieces. So if they get rid of, you know, we saw that happen in New York when Mellow,

I mean, when the Knicks traded every little nice young piece they had for Melo. You know what I mean? Sometimes that's not good. Can you not call them nice young pieces? Some good players, bro. That's your mind. Your mind works like that. Okay? You got some nice young pieces. Nice young pieces. It's a little weird. No, it's not weird. Y'all just ridiculous and silly.

That says a lot about y'all. Now we ridiculous. That's right. Alright, what else we got here? Well, the NCAA, since you're talking about sports, they're planning to host the entire Men's March Madness tournament in Indianapolis. So right now they are in preliminary discussions. I don't know if it's going to be, but it'll just be a single site is what they're saying. I don't know if it's necessarily a bubble. Definitely a bubble.

But it'll be a 68-team single elimination tournament. The city of Indianapolis, we're going to host the men's final four, but now they're talking about hosting the tournament completely there instead of at 13 different cities. Yeah, it's going to definitely be a bubble. It only makes sense to be a bubble. All right. Now, hate crimes in the United States have reached their highest level in 12 years.

So that is, you know, according to reports, the U.S. saw hate crimes go up from 2019 to over 7,300. It's the highest level that we've seen since then. Fifty one people were killed in hate attacks in the past year. And that's the highest number since they started tracking them in the early 90s. They just started tracking hate crimes in the early 90s? That's crazy. Yeah, they just started doing that.

Jesus Christ. All right. Now, Michelle Obama is speaking on the presidential transition and how this is not a game. She is urging for a smooth transition of power to the next president. She did a post. This week, I've been reflecting a lot on where I was four years ago. Hillary Clinton had just been dealt a tough loss by a far closer margin than the one we've seen this year. I was hurt and disappointed, but the votes had been counted and Donald Trump had won.

The American people had spoken. And one of the great responsibilities of the presidency is to listen when they do. So my husband and I instructed our staff to do what George and Laura Bush had done for us. Run a respectful, seamless transition to power, one of the hallmarks of American democracy. And she said, I have to be honest and say that none of this was easy for me. Donald Trump had spread racist lies about my husband that had put my family in danger.

That wasn't something I was ready to forgive, but I knew that for the sake of our country, I had to find the strength and maturity to put my anger aside. So I welcomed Melania Trump into the White House and talked with her about my experience answering every question she had. So she's telling Donald Trump to think beyond your own ego also. Yeah, right. I mean, listen, she's right.

But the fact that any of them thought this was going to end normally is nuts to me. The past four years, Donald Trump has done what he wants, when he wants, and you thought he was going to lose the election and just exit? Nothing about this presidency has been normal, so why would it end normal? I expect Trump to Trump, and Dems better stop expecting him to one day wake up and do the right thing and just start saying, well, if he doesn't want to leave,

we're going to have him removed. That's it. Simple as that. Stop trying to reason with this guy. It's not going to happen. Alright, well, that is it. Simple as that. Like, stop trying to reason with this guy. It's not going to happen. All right, well, that is your front page news. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, 50 Cent will be joining us. We'll kick it with 50.

He has a lot of new projects coming out, so we'll talk to him about everything that's going on with Fifth. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line. Hey.

What's up? Everything's all good, man. Running around. Well, first of all, how's Jeremiah doing? You know, you broke the news that Jeremiah was in ICU for COVID. How is he doing? He's doing a little better now because I speak to Saeed that's right next to me in his camp. He was in intensive care

and not responsive at one point. That's when Saeed called and told me what was going on. That's why I said it right away. I know some people who passed away from COVID, but they have other existing illnesses. It just really enhanced

his joint and it knocked him off. And I'm like, I hate to see that happen. It would be because we haven't took it to our culture musically like that. Outside of Fred the Godson. Fred the Godson. Yeah. He had asthma, bad asthma. So Jeremiah had no pre-existing conditions?

No. They thought it was a few different things before they figured out it was COVID and they had him and they put that thing in his throat like, yeah, like he was really

on a ventilator. Like it's like real, what they say COVID is, I think we all experienced a version of it. Some sort of cold symptoms and things that made you feel like,

whoa, let me stand out because this is real. Like in the very beginning, I went through that. Like I'm like, they're saying that and I feel like I got a fever and then later i had so many covid tests afterwards because you have to go through these clearances to be in in the bubble on television shows that it was like rapid testing all the time for me so i feel better about it but i didn't take the

what's the name test to see if i ever had it on, and so that's why you haven't gotten it now because you've been getting it way back when it first started. Yeah, I think in that very beginning, because I did feel like I had the cold symptoms and stuff, and I was like, what? Oh, no, I don't go out like, what, from a head cold? You go through all this and go out from some zone? You don't survive shootouts, all types of

shit. I would say if you had it, you would recover just because you are very particular about your health. I try to stay in shape for more reasons than probably the average person does. It's a part of your presentation

is how people see you. You know what I'm saying? Buster. Buster got himself back and shit. You see that? Well, you were making fun of Buster for a good year. That was probably part of the reason. I helped him. And this shit, I would get some of them boys on them bikes.

Every get on that bike ride for like 35, 36 miles. I was like, God, look, I rode 10 miles. I came back looking at the bike different. And the harder to stay in shape, the older you get, Phif? Hell yeah. Man, like, I get on the treadmill. I used to run super, like, super fast on the treadmill. The first time, now I got to ease into it now. Same here.

Knees be hurting like a mother. Yeah, you're like, where did this come from? My back is feeling different. My back has feelings now. Some days I wake up, that's like, no, we're not doing that. You know, Phipp, I thought about you this weekend, man, because I was looking at Jeezy and Gucci. I said, if Jeezy and Gucci can put their differences aside

after all the smoke they had, there's hope for you and Ja. Am I correct? No. But look, I do love you, though. No, no, no, I do love you. And you know, whatever you say to me is fine. It's just the way I feel about you, though. No, no, no. I do love you. And you know, whatever you say to me is fine. It's just the way I feel about y'all, period. Like, I watch the show.

I've been a crazy fan of it. There was one point they asked you something, and it was about how you feel. Black Lives Matter or something like that. They asked you something, and you was like, I have no feeling about it. Like, you know, no question about it. And I was a little bit disappointed only because

I feel like you and Van, Van Linton, are guys that, as far as the journalists, when they're talking, as a journalist on the radio, you're not writing it, but it comes out in writing it regardless, right? Because it could cover the things,

the statements and the things that people say on the joint. When, like, at certain points that I said things to people that, they go, ooh, like, at certain points that I said things to people that they go, ooh, like, I'm glad he was there to say that. You see what I'm saying? And it's just because, like, a lot of times when you don't

posture yourself, like, even the gangster energy, it's a part of the culture. Like, with hip-hop music, it's the closest thing to street culture. So you're going to see more casualties, you're going to see more street things happen to artists connected to hip-hop. You're going to see more street things happen to artists connected to hip-hop. Like, look at this week.

Crazy shoots in hip-hop. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That energy lives. Like, the music lives with this way it's coming from. So now it's starting to be a little more visible. Like, I even have

a television show. It's about 700 unsolved murders in hip-hop. More than any other genre of music. This is great information. I don't know how we got here based off the question I asked you. It's the art of the spin. It's the art of the spin.

I felt like we were going to end up somewhere around Trump. So I was... You just started spinning early. You just started spinning... I didn't care about no Trump. I was just saying, like, you know, with Jeezy and Gucci putting their differences aside, do you think you could ever put your differences aside?

Because I always said I understand why 50 has eternal beef with Murder, Inc. They fought, they shot, they stabbed. You know what I mean? I get it. And it's not directly with them or I'll be addressing them personally. See, they're punished for watching my success. My issues with Pring.

You see what I'm saying? He's from my neighborhood. He understands the difference. So he'll look at it and go, he's going to do something. Like, eventually, if you keep telling me not to do what I want to do, I'm going to do something. So he's going to go, and knowing that, it makes him address it in that way. You don't have to address a rapper

with killing him, with shooting him. You know what I'm saying? Now in time, rappers say something You don't have to address a rapper with killing him, with shooting him, you know what I'm saying, nine times. Rapper says something you don't like, you hit him over the head. You know what he's going to do? He's going to write a rap about it. How do you go so hard on T.I. going back and forth and y'all doing a movie together, doing a show together? How does that work?

It's not with malice. It's just he's made a mistake. You see a statement, there's nothing wrong in the statement that he made. You know what I'm saying? About Atlanta being positive and productive and supportive of other people doing things. But in the climate,

when things are happening and people, they just lost a loved one. They don't care nothing about none of what you're talking about. Like when you said don't bring your beef to Atlanta, that's like,

you don't usually schedule where it's going to happen. Yeah, I think his family, his sister, who actually said something and said, fit to get him. How she's feeling about the loss of her brother at that point is why I responded. You know what I'm saying?

We know what that was. And then you go on, of course, you didn't put the name in it. You want to backpedal out of it because you realize that wasn't the right thing to say. And who is the, like, I'm not defunding police. I'm just saying, damn, why you say the timing is bad for you to say that?

Like, you know, and when I see the kids, they move a little different. I mean, like, I watch with the little gang that they'll make fun of the casualty. Yeah, they'll be like, smoking the ops pack or whatever, smoking the ops pack. I'm like, yo, okay. Them little is different. a casualty. Yeah, it'd be like smoking the ops pack or whatever, smoking the ops pack. I'm like,

yo, okay. Them little s***s are different. Right, because somebody's hurting at the point that you're saying that. So, this promotes more.

Now you want to hurt somebody. Right. And then you're going, you still didn't fix how you felt or deal with what you was going through. You just shifted,

you switched it. You shifted to anxieties of do they know what I just did? Because you just did something in response to how you felt. And it's a lot of people, they're growing. Like I look at them and go, oh, okay. When I get really excited about the artists,

I see some of myself in them. You know, like with Pop Smoke, that thing, that's why I participated with it. Like other people, you know, if you heard somebody that sound faintly similar to you, we didn't like it because we was like, oh, he's biting his thumb. When I hear him sound like that, I go, yo,

I want to meet him. When I meet him, I go, he's talking to me. His speaking voice is like mine. If he answers the phone, you go, yo, what's up? That one interaction was so odd because I'm looking at him going, I'm not understanding what's going on. He kept playing with his phone.

Oh, possible? Yeah, possible, yeah. Okay. I got up and went around the table and look, he was typing what I was saying.

Like to him, it was 20, 21 years old. Like his entire life, I've been high. So he looked up and you see, if you got passion for music and you, and music coaches in front of you that way, and I'm there the entire time, like you go,

no, he's modeling himself after me. And I'm going, why would I be standing in the way of that? I'm going to embrace that immediately and help you as much as I can. And say, yo, you want to do this? Like what you see me doing? Or you want to do that? Because this is how I'm moving them away from so much woo. You know what I'm saying?

Because he look, he go, you want to win, you got to do this like this. You do too much of this, you going to jail. Like, you know how many times how much I just missed it? Yeah, but you did a lot of early on, Phiph. That's the blessings of it being that time period. You're not going to get away with as much of that now. Which is crazy.

It seemed to me like it was more killers back then. Yeah. With no social media. More stuff going on. Less gossip and talk about things. Like, people tell. Like, I seen the shooter on the Rondo Camp thing, like, that situation.

And it showed from a music video earlier that day, the kid wearing the same clothes. Like, I saw this online. So I was like, God damn, what the police got to do? They did the investigation. Alright, we got more with 50. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. or the rover i put some ice on you because you gotta call her i know i gotta keep my shorty on

And you know I take a soul when she ride. Sweating in this dog's end zone. Shawty know to drop it low like a limbo every time we kick it like Timbo. Shawty made that type, she don't need no applause.

Drop that to the floor. You ain't gotta do nothing to eat no more. If we hop in the Benz, is that okay? Is it okay if I call you my Prada bae? I ain't no player, I just got a lot of money. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with

50 Cent. Charlamagne? So, Fifth, when is the right time and what is the right advice to offer these young men in regards to how they choose to handle their beer? If you tell them to away from what they're doing, they gotta learn. Some of them gotta bump their head. They gotta tell them, don't touch the stove.

They're still gonna burn themselves. A lot of them, you're not gonna just do it in one communication. They got to look at you, respect you in a different way. I'm not telling them, stop doing what you're doing. I'm not telling them none of those things. We had a place that was carved out for the smart guys in hip-hop. We called it Conscious. Those guys now don't have the same category,

but it's Cedric Lamar, J. Cole. That is Talib Kweli, Common Sense. It's Mos Def. It's all of these guys that were there and participating within the culture and had strong street ties. Mos Def, more gangster than these. You see what I'm saying? It comes from out of Brooklyn. It's a choice to write and do things to reflect your personal character.

Like these kids look, what's hot to them? These records play more than other records. You know, it's funny, Ice Cube's son, O'Shea, I worked with him on Dinnin' Thieves. And he was like, yo, I was like, when we was rockin' with Ja Rule, he said, 50 gang, 50 set, and Ja Rule. And he says, I was like, when we was rocking with Ja Rule, he said, 50 gang? 50 said, and f*** Ja Rule. And he said, I was like, for real?

He said, all right, f*** Ja Rule. He said, he went right there. He said, we was liking it. And then that s*** came, and I was like, oh, f***. For no reason. Think about that. That's ill, because it's not like Ja's quality of music changed. No, it's just like that. That's ill because it's not like John's quality of music changed. No.

It's not that. Look, look, look. It's when you portray something or you convey energy. And they were saying, we the murderers. Until you have casualties, when does that become real? You see what I'm saying?

And Coach, at that point, you're dealing with, you got Death Row, you got Rap Alive, J Prince and the crew out there. So you got things that were authentic. So you go, these guys were going to find things to make that feel real. After you did the label, gave it the name,

you pulled closer association to things that made that feel real. And then as soon as that's gone, where'd the murdering go? You got to say, it was true. It's going to be the ink now. Right. It was different. It shifted. And public the ink now. Right. It was different. It shifted. And public, you can't get that over with.

Tough is not something that you set. Something is a lifestyle. But that happens to everybody too, though, right? I mean, if you had to make the adjustment at some point, at some point it's like, you're not out there shooting people no more. No, no, it's new information. What we're talking about is when you start to get new information and you figure out what shooting people no more. No, no. It's new information what we're talking about.

When you start to get new information and you figure out what you actually have to. But look at the Troy Half situation. This is a guy sees someone he had issues with. He's talking about him on the podcast. You're like, what? You see him, you want to address it. He stepped to the person he had to be with. But he's not registering.

This guy's posture is not changing by them coming in the room with 10 people. That's because he got it on him. Allegedly. What? Yeah, allegedly. Allegedly that hammer go off. Allegedly everybody's got us. You know what I'm saying?

But then in Troy's case, he fight him until he actually get the thing out of his hand and then run out behind him. Technically, if you look at it, it happens to some real tough guys. You see the guy you had a problem with, you step to him, you pull the hammer out, shot, pow, pow. You fought with him

until you took it from him and ran behind him firing it. It is tough. That is tough. The part that is not tough is everything that happens after. When you talk to him, you talk about,

I had the mazi and the backfire and power and it starts to feel so, it feels like you're listening to a movie. Right. And then people don't buy into it because they're looking at it going, I don't know. So, I mean, right. But then you see, you start thinking, why I had to do everything. So the whole crew fall out around him because y'all didn't do nothing.

So it's for him to bear the weight of it on his own. And you're going to see some things that's not so tough happen in the future. Is that why you trimmed down a lot of your crew? Yeah. Initially, I have an army of people around me. So you bought Cuba Lake some Birkins, some Marshall Specials, some real Birkins, a whole bunch of things. I tell you, you're my sister. I'm going to make sure I give her the cheap one in there

and see if she accepts it the same way or I'm going to take the other one back. I can't believe that's the first burger you ever bought. No, no, I did that. He made me go do that again. You know what? I saw that WAC 100 was saying he wanted you in game to do a versus. Did they reach out to you? And is

that even a potential? I haven't even heard from them about that. T.I. I heard it, but like, when he was talking about it, I didn't hear anything from him. Would you do a versus in that? I don't know. Like, I don't know. What is it? I thought it was when we were

stuck in the house. So we come outside, I'm like, what are we doing that for? Like, just get back outside, yo. I'm just trying to let everybody go first. Make sure everything's all right. But you are doing a show about you and game, right? And your whole situation. It's a good, you know what it is?

I use the actual court documents of Jimmy Hitchman and Nick Cruz's participation of it. And the other side of it, they got the information from my side. All right, we got more with 50 Cent when we come back. Let's get into a 50 Cent mini-mix. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. That was a 50-cent mini-mix.

We're still kicking it with Phif. Charlamagne? You know what I wanted to ask you about, Phif? You know, a lot of rappers have been using mini-men lately. Yeah. 21 Savage, Pop Smoke. How do you pick and choose which records you want to clip? You know what?

When I heard the records, it was a hit record. Both of them. Like, when 21 Savage did that, I was like, yo, I listened. I felt like his record was a hit, that he didn't need to play the part at the end. But creatively, it was setting the tone for him. And I think it resonates stronger, that record, because they feel the way I felt at that point.

It was a war chant at that point, you know what I mean? Yeah. Because he did address some issues, even with Jeezy on that record. Would you have a clear record for one of Irv Gotti's artists? I don't know. They don't need to be in my voice. They're going to say the wrong thing anyway.

See, they don't even want people listening to my records. Look, big girlfriend. You got to imagine Jeezy telling his girlfriend, oh, no, don't, don't. I don't want you listening to that. It's different. You would think that I hate them with the passion they did this like me with because they're going through

a continuous asphalt for my success. When people tell you the best way to get a person back is to do good, that's not a lie. Even when people say things about me like my son's mom is upset with me all the time. That's so old. We haven't been in a relationship for

20 years, 18 years. When you say it now, I'm like I'm sure I can do what I'm doing longer than you can do what you're doing. Because you're upset and I'm not. I'm enjoying myself, right? Still running around doing it. I believe your energy provides the ability for you to be productive. If you're not in a good space, you can't make the next thing happen.

You know, and that's the way a lot of times I don't really get affected by how people feel about me. If I cared enough about it, I would be crazy already. Consistently, like you look. Now, particularly you guys, I feel more comfortable having this conversation

with y'all because of what this show is. What it is now. I come to y'all to talk about them offering me a million dollars to go to Trump's inauguration. Right? I passed the million dollars. But they offered a million, and you said nine. Five hundred thousand, and it went up to a million while I was still confused

with whether I should do it. Right. Why were you confused? Just because of the money? He was needing it for the same reasons you see now that he participated with different artists like that for the black vote. And I'm going, nah, I ain't going to put myself in that position because I don't know what I had to do to recover from it, to be honest with you.

And I'm looking going, nah, I'll pass. And you see later when you see I'm watching the news and they're going to cross CNBC by this tax plan and it's like 62%. I go, oh, yo. They never talked about that part in the debates. See, it's because COVID is such an issue

that it overshadowed everything else in those plans. This is why the following day, my Instagram post is on the cover, puts me on the cover of the newspaper. People go, oh, why don't you say this, say this. I get all these phone calls. Because I know you don't feel like that. Why you don't say this? And I'm like, why do you care to fix it? See, if you can't be useless, just don't use me till I get a chance to use me or until I'm all used up. If they're deciding to take that post and make it

the cover of the newspaper, okay. It doesn't change my intentions or what I would actually do. So Wayne definitely got it checked in. Yeah, I'm sure. Yeah. Easily, you got paid. He had the sweater and the picture at the... laughter

laughter Did you really speak to Chelsea Hill? Did y'all really have a conversation? Yeah, we talked. Once a day, Chelsea, she's, you can see it in her communication, her personality. It's so, it's fun.

Have you cashed in yet, though? She made you an offer. Have you cashed in? No, no, no. And then she started talking about, oh, like he's some kind of hunk or something. I was like, what's wrong with him? And fifth, how we know you didn't get paid

to tweet that about Biden's tax plan, though? I didn't get paid for that. I didn't do that. You know, like, that was named, when I did just put it up, it was, how did I know that they were going to put it on the cover of the newspaper? Right.

I didn't know that. You have said before, though, that Trump has some qualities that you feel like you possess also. Yeah, yeah. The ability to believe in yourself. I think most successful people are a little crazy. They have to be.

You develop passion in the area that you went, and you got to believe. Look at the money you put into real estate. How much money you put into it. You develop a comfort when it's not 100% comfort like there. There's things that can go wrong. We went into a recession where people's real estate was worth half of what it was worth

and they were all underwater. And we can go in that direction without any area feeling like that's an issue. And being able to suppress that when it's happened in the past would just say that in order to actually make it, that would be blocking you if you were thinking about that. The only thing that separates us is

passion. There's no such thing. You got a lot of people on the radio. You got more people on podcasts and blog posts all over the place. and then they still want to hear your voice in 36 markets. It says it's stronger. I listen to it because it puts me up

on what's going on, and it's being said in a way that I can completely grasp what it is. We had 100-plus markets, Phil. I just want to throw that out there. You might get 30. Lay it all over 100. But who's counting? Yeah, 100-plus. I just want to throw that out there. You might get 30. Lay it all over 100. But who's counting? Who's counting?

Yeah. 100 plus, someone like that? Yeah, 100 plus. 100 plus more. 36 when I was doing the math last time. Why not? It's like a month. Let me ask you a question before we get out of here,

because I know you've got to go. Do you ever regret anything you have said or done to anybody? You know what? I don't apologize enough. If I say something, a lot of times my intentions are what the malice are. When you're in a public space, a person can look at you and say, no, I don't like it.

You see it on social media, I never liked him anyway. And I'm going, cool, then you never mad at me. You never mad at, and why would I care about what you think if you have nothing to do with the success that I'm having in my life you know is it every time tell you sorry are you forgiving at all like if somebody says sorry if they haven't gone over my mark I'm a cancer right there's certain things that they do it like I can hold on to things better than other people can be honest like sometimes things get older get old of these people who don't get old of me. I still look at them

when you said what you said about me. I'm looking, oh, okay. It might have been how you felt at the moment and they passed. I look at them and I'm going, I don't know why you felt that way. I go, okay, well, maybe this person is just not somebody that I'm supposed

to have a relationship with. Life comes on this Wednesday, 10 to 11 on ABC. December 6th, don't forget Power Book 2 because that is my show. That's awesome. I was disappointed when it ended. I was like, wait a minute, what just happened? But it's back on December 6th, right?

December 6th, yeah. Be back in action with that. You get a chance to see Mary and Matthew. There you go. Well, we appreciate you for back in action with that. Take a chance to see Mary. There you go. Well, we appreciate you for checking in, Fifth. Everybody, it's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors.

Let's talk Meg Thee Stallion. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.

Well, as we are gearing up for Megan Thee Stallion's album, good news to come out this week. She is in a profile for GQ's Men of the Year issue. So congratulations to her. They actually named her Rapper of the Year. Now, in this interview, she talks about what happened that night with Tory Lanez. And she said, I never put my hands on nobody. I barely even said anything to the man who shot me when I was walking away. We were literally like five minutes away from the house. She says that

after Tory shot her, he offered her and her friend money to keep quiet about the incident. She said, at this point, I'm really scared because this like right in the middle of all the protesting, police are just killing everybody for no reason. And I'm thinking, I can't believe you even think I want to take some money like you just shot me. Now, Megan, the stallion said when police did get there and arrest Tori Lanes, they noticed that her feet were bleeding and they asked her what happened. And she responded, I got cut. And so that was her conversation, because I guess, you know, people don't know how to react to the police and not wanting to tell things at that time. Now she said

she did still want to project strength despite being a victim. She said like, damn, I have to be tough through all this all the time. It was like, who really checks on us or who protected us? You just go your whole life with that mentality. And then when something actually happens to you, when you properly should have protected yourself, your first instinct was not to protect yourself. It was protecting other people. So that's... She told all that to GQ?

Yeah. Now, didn't Meg say... Meg was supposed to be here this week, but they had a long laundry list of things not to talk to her about. And it was all Tory Lanez and that situation related? Yeah, I think, you know what? Yeah, I think it's crazy because when she does...

White publications. White publications, she's able to talk and talk about everything that she wants to talk about, but when she goes to the black press and black publications, there's a list that the label sends out that, you know, don't ask her about this, don't talk about this, don't talk about that, but we're the ones that support her and hold her down

and play her music and talk about all the good things that she does and go through all that stuff. It's just weird when they do that. I would love to read the GQ magazine article because if you're going to name her rapper of the year, you should be focusing on her rap, right? Yeah, that's in there too. This was just the part, you know.

And yeah, definitely. So she talks about working with cardi b on wap and just a lot of other things as well so she talks about youtube apple music and all of that salute to make wish her the best on her uh debut album good good news but you know i just don't like when artists go to white publications and spill their guts but when they come to the black media outlets they want us now we also have a long long time to talk about right now if it's the artist it's probably not that list out. If it's the artist sending that list out or if it's the label and representation

saying that. A lot of times artists don't even know. They're like, what did they tell you I couldn't talk about? That is very true because they asked us not to ask 50 about Donald Trump too. And he brought it up. This morning. Exactly. Yeah, so I don't want to put that on her. We don't know.

Yeah, I don't think. I'm positive it's not her. But I just think it's whack when her representatives do that. Because when she was coming up and she was a new artist, we were the ones supporting her before any white publication even knew who she was. The black publications, the black media was supporting her. And at least talk with your people because, you know, you're comfortable with your people. You know, the white people are just using you for a start.

All right, now let's talk about Jeremiah. His team is giving an update on his condition as he is battling coronavirus. Adam Smith, who works with him, actually called in to Kenny Burns and said this. He is still ill. He is still in the hospital. There's some complications with COVID. Any progress is better than no progress. He's stable, but he's still in ICU right now. But we do have the best of the best working on him.

We've had a lot of people in the entertainment capacity that we reached out to that helped us with their resources. Chance the Rapper has been super helpful. He's been connecting us with a lot of the doctors at the hospital that he is. There's just some more support. I connected with Puff. Puff connected us with his entire team at UCLA that he works with. That's dope.

Drop on a clue. All right. Chance to wrap in Puff. Using their resources to help others. And that Hulu documentary about Tekashi 6ix9ine has arrived. It is now streaming exclusively on Hulu. It's called 69, The Saga of Danny Hernandez. That sounds wild.

So they said it's part investigative documentary, part real life gangster movie. Say the title again. It talks about how he. Say the title again, Yee. That's the title? The Saga of Danny Hernandez. No, that's not what you said before. 69, The Saga of Danny Hernandez.

No, you got to put my whole name. You got to say Tekashi69, a.k.a. the saga of Daniel Hernandez. Word 69, the saga of Daniel Hernandez. Jesus Christ. All right, well, it's about how he broke the internet repeatedly with his videos. I'm sure. I'm sure.

I am sure. We have to let kids go. Repeatedly with his videos. I'm sure. I'm sure. With his videos. I am sure. All right. We have to let kids go. They said the bulk of the work is done before his release from prison due to coronavirus concerns earlier this year. And yes. So if y'all want to check that out, it's on Hulu. What are you making all this noise about? It's you.

The way you reported that story. 69. The saga of death. 69. 69. The saga of death. 69. And how he broke the internet with his videos. Right before jail. All right, guys. I'm Angelique.

That is your rumor report. All right. Mm-hmm. Who are you giving your donkey to then? Well, Cori Bush. Speaking of 69. Not Cori Bush. Cori Bush works.

Cori Bush. Shut up, man. She is a Republican. No, noti Bush. Speaking of six. Not Cori Bush. Cori Bush works. Cori Bush. Shut up, man. She is a Republican. No, not a Republican. Get it together. Representative. Oh, my gosh. You're flustered over here.

Representative elect, okay? She's a Missouri Democrat, and she had something to say about Republicans in the House. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.

The Freshest Family reunion is coming to HBO Max. Celebrating 30 years since the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air's debut, join Will Smith and the whole cast for a walk down memory lane. The Banks family is back. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reunion streaming Thursday only on HBO Max. You don't hear the dance. Yeah, you dumbass. You don't hear the dance. Yeah, you dumbass. Thursday only on HBO Max. They wait for Charlamagne to tap these 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.

It's a breakfast club, bitchy. Who's donkey of the day today? Let me get my vitamins out of my pocket. All right. Donkey of the day for Tuesday, November 17th goes to all the Republicans in the House who don't know the difference between Breonna Taylor and Cori Bush. Now, Cori Bush is a Missouri Democrat representative-elect,

and she said several of her Republican colleagues mistakenly, excuse me, mistakenly called her Breonna Taylor. Okay, why were they mistaking Cori Bush for Breonna Taylor? Before we get to that, how can anyone mistake anyone who's alive to the late Breonna Taylor? Now, look, it's impossible for everyone to be up on everything. We all live in our own little worlds, okay? Whether we want to admit it or not, way before there was COVID-19, we were living in bubbles. And the thing about our bubbles, we swear whatever we up on in our bubble is the biggest thing everywhere, okay?

I say it all the time. Just because you don't know about something doesn't mean it's not popping somewhere. And just because you know about something doesn't mean it is popping everywhere, okay? We be in our own bubbles. But Breonna Taylor, if it's a top five list of things that were mentioned in 2020, Breonna Taylor would be top five easily. I would say top three. I can't think of too many things I heard more about this year.

Of course, coronavirus would be number one on everybody's list. And then in no particular order, I would say Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Donald Trump, Kobe Bryant. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't think of too many things that were mentioned more in every household in America than those things. Like those are all big, universal, broad topics that I thought everyone was up on. But according to Cori Bush, representatives in the House that are Republicans say no, no, no, no, no.

We have no idea what you are talking about. Let's go to CNN for the report, please. Both the House and Senate back on Capitol Hill, several newly elected members getting settled, including Congresswoman-elect Cori Bush of Missouri. She says many Republicans called her Breonna as she wore this Breonna Taylor mask on her first day working on the Hill, tweeting, quote, it hurts, but I'm glad they'll come to know her name and story because of my presence here.

I feel Corey's fatigue. Being black is tiring. Okay, being black in a white supremacist world, whatever you did in spin class yesterday when you was on that Peloton bike doing that Beyonce-themed workout, however tired that made you, multiply that by 400 plus years with no coffee and tell me how fatigued you would be. Okay, black people just tired, man.

Alright, number one, the weight of knowing how Breonna Taylor was killed and then knowing there was no justice for her. That being heavy on your heart at all times, just add that weight to the weight of all the other times we've seen unjust things happen to black people and it's just heavy and then it gets tiresome having to explain not only who we are, but who our fallen comrades in blackness are that we choose to wear on our mask.

OK, I refuse to believe that these Republicans in the House didn't know who Breonna Taylor was. And if they knew and forgot, why are dead black people so forgettable to you? Maybe it is all a blur to them because they don't really care to begin with. OK, this is more awkward than making a yo mama joke and the person's mom is dead. This is more awkward than asking about a person who's passed away. How's such and such doing? Tell them I asked about them. Oh, I would, but they're dead.

Lord have mercy. That's when you just want to back into the bushes like Homer Simpson. Okay? I need a Southwest Airlines want to get away fare right now. Okay? And Cori Bush is handling this better than most of us would, and that's why she's in the position she's in. But most of us are not her. Okay. Let's listen to what Cori Bush had to say about people calling her Breonna Taylor. You know, first of all, I am Breonna Taylor as far as I could be a black woman murdered in my bed tonight, but I am not

Breonna Taylor. And I just want people to, you know, we have to stretch ourselves and pay attention to what's happening in other parts of the country. But this has been national news for a long time. People have protested in the streets with this name. And it just saddens me that people in leadership, people that want to be in leadership, don't know the struggles that are happening to black people in this country. And it's just disheartening. And it was hurtful, absolutely hurtful. And I didn't hear it once.

I didn't hear it twice. I heard it several times. I'm being called Breonna Taylor today. But it's okay because we'll educate and we'll make sure that people know who she is, what she stood for, that she's someone who deserves justice right now. Dropping the clues box for Cori Bush. Better than me. I'm still working on myself, okay? That's why I'm in therapy once a week.

I'm petty. Michelle Obama said, when they go low, we go high. No, I would have took it right there to the floor with them. Those Republicans in the House would have called me, you know, Breonna Taylor, a deceased sister, a person whose name has been top of the mind awareness all year. I would have started calling every old white man in there George Washington. There would have been so many, hi, are you Mr. Jefferson?

Thomas Jefferson, how are you? Oh, you must be Abraham. How are you, Mr. Lincoln? F that, okay? I can pretend to be clueless too. Is it arrogant of me to think everyone, at least in America, should know who Breonna Taylor is? Shouldn't that be top of the mind awareness for so many people?

Even if you don't know who she is, you should know who she isn't. And she's not Cori Bush or any other sister that's alive and well because she got killed at the hands of the police and justice was not served. Please let Remy Ma give the Republicans in the House who kept mistaking Cori Bush for Breonna Taylor the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother******, you dumb. All right.

Well, thank you for that donkey today. Yes, ma'am. Now, when we come back, Queen Naja will be joining us. So we're kicking with Queen Naja. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line right now. Queen Naja. Hi, how y'all doing? Good morning. What's happening?

Good morning. I just saw you stretching. Don't act like you're not tired. Oh, no, I'm not tired. I'm not. Okay. I'm just stretching because I never really stretch. And my bones be needing to crack.

You don't get massages and stuff like that, Queen Naja? Not really. I've been to the chiropractor once in the airport recently, and it really didn't help. Well, I been to the chiropractor once in the airport recently and like it really didn't help. Well I wasn't a chiropractor in the airport. I was probably one of those guys that do the little cheap massages. No, no, no.

It was a chiropractor. He was like sort of certified. Really? That's what he told you? Well he showed his credentials. Oh wait a minute. So you was just randomly walking through the airport and the guy walked up to you and said I'm a chiropractor?

I'm a chiropractor. Let me show you my work. Well, I did it for footage because I was recording. Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay. Now, how you been holding up during this pandemic? How's everything been going? At first, you know, I was a little discouraged, but it turned out for the best.

You know, I can't really complain. The pandemic has actually blessed me more than, it's been more of a blessing to me than anything. Really? Why? Just because I've gotten a chance a chance to be home you know with my kids and not be away from them too too often like I get to come right back home um if I'm at the studio or working and like I've seen them just uh learn so much and yeah I've been able to get music done to release my album so I got a chance to perfect it yeah congratulations on the album you know that is true like during a pandemic you had a number one selling album yeah that's crazy

I mean I really put my all my all into it so it's just like I I really didn't expect that to be honest but yeah I didn't expect that because like I I said, it's a pandemic. The rules done changed. Everything is just happening when I want to release the album. So I didn't really expect it. I was just kind of banking on just people listening to it, like my core fan base, and just appreciating what I did. But you got a big base, though, I mean, especially being the fact that you've been on the internet for so long.

Yeah, I got a nice fan base. Yeah, I would like to reach outside of them, though, so more people could get to know me. You got 1.7 billion global streams. You're reaching somebody. Yeah, yeah, that's a good thing. That's a little bit. Now, how you been doing with the virtual learning, virtual school?

I know you got, what, a five-year-old? So how has that been going to school with him? So actually's not my lifestyle so i don't do that he gets home school i have a teacher yeah i have a teacher coming on i actually work with him in person queen i just said shut your poor ass up i don't think he would be able to concentrate. He's learned a lot. He went from not being able to pronounce a letter to full on just reading to me. So I'm like very happy about that. My one-year-old is not even two yet.

We've all just been working with him, me, his auntie, like his dad, everybody. And like he knows his ABCs fluently. He's not even two yet. So I'm really, that's why I said like this pandemic has been a blessing because like, I really got to see them, you know, grow. I don't feel, I don't feel like I've been lacking in those areas. You know, Queen Naja, I saw you wrote this post and I thought it was powerful. You said getting pregnant right after signing, people predicting my failed career, recording songs and trashing them out of anger because it wasn't good

enough. Dropping two songs I hated, sleepless nights away from my kids and my man, giving up a stream of income, YouTube, hearing mad people compare me to other artists, saying how I'm trash and nobody listens to my music, dealing with rumors. You went on and on and on about all the things. And now you are happy because the album came out and it just shows how much support that you actually did get. Was there ever a time when you felt like too stressed out? Like, I don't know if I can do this. Not to an extent where I feel like I don't know

if I can do this, just kind of like, it was just a lot of pressure on me. And it made me low key, like, it made me just want to do it more. Like, no, I have to do this. I have something to prove. Not, and I'm gonna be real with you. A lot of people be like, oh, I don't have anything to prove to these people but sometimes like as an artist as a human being

that like me that wants to you know that's actually a good person or that actually has a story you want people to hear it because people can relate people can heal from certain things it was it was pressure but it turned out for the good so um all of that stuff is real like what I what I said in that post like I really all that is like for real do you pj say yes big daddy yes envy jealous why he wanted he wants some pj's so he that say yes big daddy for his big daddy that's what that is now I saw there was all this controversy with Birkenback, you got for your birthday.

Like, what was going on with that? Why was it such a big deal that people were really seeming to, like, hate on that and your relationship? Drew, I don't even know. I don't even know. Like, honestly,

I don't even know what happened. I'm out the loop on that. Like, all I know is, like, I think, like, around the middle of this year, I never really been into bags and designer things or anything like that. I could literally just walk into Forever One or H&M and be like, oh, this is cute, you know. And then all of a sudden, like, something just snapped where I was like,

ooh, I want a bag. I want this bag. I want that. I don't know what happened. My taste just, like, got a little bit more expensive. So I remember telling my mom. Because that bank account got bigger. Them zeros got added to that bank account. That's what happened my taste just like got a little bit more expensive so i remember that bank account got bigger them zeros got added to that bank account that's what happened yeah so i told

clarence i'm like i want a birkin back my birthday like just because i said you got it just because like i just seen it like you know like kind of i don't know it was it was cute i seen all the girls but i was like oh that's trendy i want one you know but like it wasn't like oh i really i have to have a birkin like i got one and like truthfully i don't even know if i'll get another one like it's it's just cute to have it's my favorite color but you work hard for it you deserve it you work hard for it it's your money why not i said it's not my money because he paid for it for his money but you know you work hard for it well yeah well yeah i don't know i mean who knows if i really feel the need if i just want to go in and cash out on i guess i will clarence bought the burger for you look how much

it cost truthfully i don't know but i've seen the prices of the price range of them and um it's um i don't even know how much it cost if clarence would just say you got it yeah you queen nausea yeah i don't ask for much you know i believe you though because Naja. Yeah, I don't ask for much, you know? I believe you, though, because she's very humble. Yeah, I don't ask for much, so I feel like that's, like he always said, the people that don't ask for much deserve the most, so it's like. Absolutely. Yeah.

All right, we got more with Queen Naja. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Queen Naja. Yee.

Now, let me ask you this. Were you irritated when Chris and Clarence had their back and forth on social media? And, you know, how did you feel when you saw that happening? Because I know that had to feel like. No, I wasn't irritated. I mean, that's just. That's something I can't, like, stop. That's honestly in a lot of stuff.

Like, people don't understand. Like, it's getting paid from this. So it's like, it's like a, like sometimes people do it. Like it's almost like entertainment, like kind of not, I don't want to say like fake beef or anything, but just like reacting and like responding,

like in front of like that stuff is like, a lot of people do it like, because it's a show, it's a bag. So it's like, I'm'm not really was there an apology like did chris at least apologize for starting with clarence and you said it's a bag what bag oh you don't know about the youtube oh i got you youtube is a whole different like anything anytime you react to something anything that like has a big title anything that like people are gonna go and click and watch that's money like that's money so it's like if it's not that serious to an extent like people don't mind I guess but I don't I just keep

my hands out of it because you know I'm saying I've been trying to focus on like a lot of other stuff and it don't bother me gotcha Like what else are you focused on right now? What else is Queen Nida doing? The album came out number one, did well. It's not over. I definitely need to do a deluxe. I've been gone for two years, so I can't leave another two years. I have to stay consistent now, keep my face out there and I have to find new ways to promote. I have some,

I have some features that I still haven't done for people that I want to do. Like who? Like Meek Mill, he sent me a song and it's a few people actually. And I always feel like if someone gives me the opportunity that I feel like it makes sense, I definitely want to do it like as soon as I can,

because you don't want to keep nobody like just around waiting, especially if I'm like a, you know, a fan of their music, but that, and just like, I would like to, I really want my own studio. I really do. Like, I have like stuff here. I just would like to work home but in this space right here like I'm I've been trying to work on a lot of things like as far as like buying a house and this and that but I think I learned that I don't even want to buy a house anymore I would like to build it from ground up because it's so I it's so many things that I want that Clarence want

that I feel like we cannot find in just like a house that's already built. So like now we have to step back and see, like it's more and more than just like the music. It's just like being at home and like dealing with your personal life. I want to invest my money into some businesses. Like I'm a creator, so I'm not all the way like a business woman. You feel me? So I really would like to invest in like find find a way to use my money right keep

it flowing while i'm asleep yes gotcha passive income so you do some investments and that money's just coming in yes especially and then like for my my kids i just want to keep it going to where like my kids kids can be blessed generation well absolutely yeah yeah some people some people get um money and like they get these deals and they just like blow it on like, cause you know, a lot of people not used to money, you know, and they want to get everything they ever wanted. They want to buy their family this and buy it, buy that and just like spend it and throw it all out. And it's just like,

you know, sometimes that can really come back and bite you. You know, you took a break for two years. Was that because of the baby or just because of the pressure it was getting too much for you a mixture of um of course you know when i had the baby it um you know i sat down a little bit and then i tried to make my album and i was trying to rush because i was also trying to like prove to people like no this baby not gonna this not this baby is not gonna change anything i'm still gonna do it but I was rushing so much that like the music that I was making was kind of like it was good but it was kind of like everywhere like I didn't have like a cohesive album so um I decided to just step back and take my time because people was really really like where the album like you

you've been since the EP like oh you about to fall off you falling off So it was just like, it was discouraging, but I was like, nah, I mean, if I'm going to give y'all a debut album, it has to be a classic for one. It has to be non-skippable. It has to be cohesive, and it has to make sense. And I don't want to just be like putting out anything. Like, when I give it to you, I'm going to really give it to you.

Right. You know, I wanted to ask, like, you know, the more popping you've gotten, the more money you've gotten, and you know, you've always been transparent. Does it make you want to pull back from revealing so much of your life? Definitely. Because I feel like the more that I speak is like the more misunderstood I am. I can sneeze and people will make something out of it. She got COVID. Huh? They'd be like, she got she got COVID but it's just like I literally could do say anything that people really think about any minds but scared to say out loud I'll say it and they'll be like why would you say that like dragging me like and it's just like okay let me

just stop talking at this point because it's like literally no matter what I do no matter what I say somebody's gonna make something out of it put words in my mouth to twist it. And it's just, it's really like, sometimes it's just annoying. Like, bro, like, let me stop talking to y'all because a lot of you guys don't deserve my realness. Y'all don't deserve, y'all just don't deserve someone like me to just,

I don't know, y'all. Yeah, so it's like, I don't know, giving your energy out like that, sometimes you don't get good energy back in return. So, I mean, I say all of that, but I'm still probably going to be myself because I just can't, it's hard for me to not, I'd be like, no, I'm just not going to say anything. I'm not going to. And then I go back and I just like say something that's on my mind. And then all over again, it happens all over again. It's just like, I cannot stop being myself. I'm going to say what's on my mind. I'm'm gonna be transparent with what I want to be transparent with and that's just that's just it I

just I just still have to learn to just accept the fact that everybody's not gonna like it and that's okay how did it feel being back out again like for your birthday for the album release you know we've all been kind of uh cooped up and not doing as much how was that um it felt great actually because I because like the beginning of this covid thing like i literally was just i was in a house i didn't even want to order like i didn't want to go out to the grocery store if i did i would hurry up and come back in but it felt good to be around people that actually supported me and you know you had a lot of people for your birthday and in the listening session i i didn't think that that could happen honestly i

thought nobody was going to come to my birthday party because I did it so last minute. And also, I don't know. I just didn't think nobody would come. I feel like I'm not lit. I don't party. Like, I don't need partying. I don't do all that stuff.

So why would somebody come to a Queen Aja party? But it turned out it was a good turnout. And he wanted to DJ, but he said he missed the message. Yeah, I missed the message. Yeah, I know. I was trying to get a New York DJ because I don't know. I just love New York. But you got Clue.

Clue did it, though. Huh? Clue did it, though. DJ Clue. Yeah, DJ Clue, he did it. Yeah, and it was dope. I just wanted it to low-key. I really wanted to have, like, a New York-themed kind of party.

Like, people was laughing at me because I was like, you ain't from New York. Like, why are you trying? But like, it's just like a, like people have parties, like, like they in Paris. Like if I want to do it, like I'm from New York or like it's, it's a New York party. Like what's wrong with that? Have you, I feel like you and Cardi should be friends.

Have y'all communicated? Yes, definitely. I love Cardi. Um, yeah, we've communicated recently. Oh yeah. I almost got some music in the works together. Well, I just kind of like asked her like, yo, I really don't like bother. Like she's always did it. She's always supported me. Like she posts my things on her story, like my my music.

And like she don't have to. She has such a big platform. And I met her in person. Like we took a picture together. People be like, oh, y'all, y'all look y'all look alike. But I just really love Cardi for her transparency. she just keep it real and she really don't care like she really don't care she just say what's on her mind she's still a human at the end of the day and she's so relatable and I feel like I can you know connect with that um but yeah I asked her I'm like yo man what like I really I don't like bothering people well what can we do to like work because I really want to work with you and she was just like send I really, I don't like bothering people. Well, what can we do to, like, work? Because I really want to work with you.

And she was just, like, sending something. So I ain't got nothing prepared, but I'm going to go to the studio. And, like, it'll just happen in due time, you know. Gotcha. Word. But, you know, closed mouths don't get fed, so. You got to speak things into the universe. You got to do it.

We appreciate you for checking in and joining us this morning. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. I appreciate y'all. All right. It's Queen Naja. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. I appreciate y'all. All right. It's Queen Naja. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Just to get down, down. Let me put it down, down. Put it down, down. Watch me put it down, down.

Put it down, down. Trips, decrypt in the middle of the night. I know that you miss me as I put it down right down, babe. I can put you on a flight. You know that a n***a like me can change a life, oh babe. Everything you do is amazing. Ain't nobody got to go crazy. I got what you need.

Couldn't catch it. Everybody think you shot, but I you need Can't catch it. Can't catch what? Nothing. The mic? Oh. Morning, everybody. We are The Breakfast Club.

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Freeway. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Freeway was on Jeezy's The Recession podcast, and he talked about losing a child and how his faith has helped him cope with that. He also revealed that his daughter is going into cancer treatment, and she's gearing up for that new treatment.

She was diagnosed in September. Here's some more of Freeway. As far as the gift of life, like my son, he saved four lives. Two people got his kidneys, one person got his lungs, and one person got his liver. And it's a blessing, you know, just for it to come full circle because someone's son saved my life. Someone's son was in the same position and, you know, they were generous enough for him to be an organ donor, and that's how I received my kidney.

Damn, I listened to that yesterday, and I said to myself, why am I not an organ donor? And the reason I'm not is because they always say we won't need our organs when we die, but are we sure? That's always been my mindset, but that conversation definitely made me rethink my decision. You know, there was always a movie one time. That's the reason why I'm not. I think I am now, though. But there was a movie

where they would kill people for their organs. Oh, yeah. Because they know that when they died, they were able to accept their organs. Well, harvesting organs is a real thing.

That movie was called Get Out 2, by the way. But Dick Gregory said that when he was here, he talked about, you know, people harvesting organs. God bless the dead. All right.

Now, I'm watching what's happening with Meek Mill and some local rappers in North Philly. I don't want to talk too much about it, but I see he has deleted his social media. But he also let people know before that happened that he does have an EP coming out. So I guess that'll be out this Friday, a four pack. Could someone school me on what happened in that Meek Mill Philly situation? Because I didn't understand the backlash.

I think what happened was Meek Mill said, if you guys in Philly stop beefing, I'll sign all you guys independently, let you all come out. He said, I'll get all the main big artists in Philly a deal. If they put them bodies behind them and squash them beefs, I hear about got some hot young bulls from my city, but they all beefing. Right. So the dudes is like pretty much like F you.

You could have signed this a long time ago. Why now? Like don't just sign this now. So they got upset about that. Oh, I thought it was because he said put the bodies behind you. Meaning like if somebody did something to your homie, you wouldn't just let it go. But you got to break the cycle, right? At some point, somebody got to break the cycle.

He was trying to be positive, and then things went very left. It went very left. After that, they told him to pick a side, because Meek Mill said pretty soon everybody going to have to pick a side. Too much real-ish going on to be cool with everybody. They told him it's time for you to pick a side. And he said, I'm not picking no side. Well, you know what to do, Meek.

Go sign somebody from Baltimore. Baltimore, Delaware, just skip over Philly. That's his town. You ain't gonna do that. That's his town. Hopefully they squash it out because there's a lot of great talent in Philly. Listen, the crazy part is I can understand what everybody's saying. I can understand what those brothers are saying when they was like,

yo, if somebody, you know, did something to one of your homies, you'd want to get back. But I also understand what Meek's saying when he was like, yo, you might have to put that behind you. Like, the cycle has to break. It does. Because if it doesn't, it's just going to keep going. More people going to keep getting killed. More people going to keep going to jail. The cycle

has to break at some point. I agree. And I think with all the deaths that's been happening and all the shootings, I think Meeks whole thing was like, yo, let's try to slow this down. Let's stop. Like we all brothers at the end of the day. All right. Now, Blac Chyna is upset about some things that Wendy Williams said on her show. And

let me say something right now. Blac Chyna is definitely getting the bag right now. I've been hearing about the numbers that she makes off of OnlyFans. She is one of the top creators on OnlyFans. And she definitely stunted after Wendy Williams said this on her show. He has a child with Blac Chyna, right? Yes, yes. So that's King Cairo that he's...

I told you Blac Chyna texts me regularly. Can you help me find a condo? I have no place to live. Yeah. She said she's not getting child support from either from... The payments were lowered from robbing. She said that Tyga doesn't help at all. Single mother of two. Can I find her a place to live? And it was like random. Like maybe

she sent a blast to everybody that she knows because it didn't say like dear Wendy. I didn't answer it. I don't want to be involved. Black Chyna got it. She posted a video yesterday. She posted close to $2 million of calls. She posted about a $2, $3 million crib. I don't know what she got.

We don't know if that's hers or not. I'm not going to say that just because I already posted something on social media. She's had them calls a long time, though. Well, let me just tell you right now, on OnlyFans, she's like the number one person. They say she makes about $20 million off of OnlyFans. $20 million of what? Those numbers are, I always think those numbers are exaggerated. How old are y'all to believe in this stuff?

But she does make a lot of money on OnlyFans, though. But I think Blac Chyna's good. I don't know what she's got. But just because you ask somebody to help you find a place to stay don't mean that you can't afford a place to stay. You might just be looking for a realtor or something. I don't know. Is she going to call Wendy for a realtor? Hey, Wendy, you live in New York. Wendy said it was a massive email, a text blast.

It wasn't like she just hit Wendy personally. I need somebody to help cater for Thanksgiving. You're going to send out a text blast? You're going to send out a blast? Anybody know anybody that can help cater for Thanksgiving? That don't mean I can't afford to buy the food. I'm looking for a caterer. All right.

Well, Black China definitely took offense to that. You know, sometimes things get a little shady there. So it is what it is. I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right.
