Supposed to be a foot of snow. I don't see a foot of snow on the ground. You, Yee?

Well, I'm actually in Detroit. Oh, you're in Detroit. Is it the same in Detroit? Is it a winter weather warning there, too? Winter storm? It did snow yesterday, but it wasn't a foot of snow. It was maybe like four inches. Oh, okay. You guys hear me now. Do I sound better?

Nope. You still sound like you're under a blanket of snow, sir. All I'm saying is I hate when the meteorologist tells us that it's going to be snowmageddon, and you're waiting for snowmageddon. So you go to the store the day before and you get all your snacks and supplies. And then you wake up in the morning and it don't look as crazy as they said. Well, at least you have snacks in the house. No.

That's a good thing. That's a positive thing. I'm still trying to lose quarantine weight. All this comfort food in this crib. Healthy snacks are good. That is true. That is true. Well, I'm actually in Detroit because we had a store opening.

I did a little VIP thing for my hair store that just opened out here, private label. So that was pretty nice. We're not normally open on Sundays, but yesterday I just had a few VIP people come through, some stylists and people that work in beauty just so they could see the store, meet the manager, and meet the owners. Okay.

It's nice. It's a beautiful thing, dropping the Clues bombs for Pink Label in Detroit. Private label. Angelina Jolie's new venture. Private label. Sorry. Private label in Detroit, Angelina Jolie's new venture. Pink would be something different.

We got front page news coming up. Yes. And let's dig more into what's going on right now with the weather across the United States. We'll tell you about the storm. Who's going to be affected? How much snow can you expect? That's right. It's the world's most dangerous morning show.

The Breakfast Club. It's Monday. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angel Lee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. It's Monday! Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy and Jalee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Do I sound any better? Yes. Yeah, you good. Thank God. All right. I know y'all

talk about snow. No, it's snowing out here in Jersey where I'm at. I mean, like, we must have about at least close to 10 inches of snow. So, it's snowing out here. And it's still coming down. They have declared emergencies in New Jersey and New York City yesterday, and they're saying there's blizzard

conditions. There's almost 80 million people under winter storm watches right now with warnings and advisories across the Midwest, the Northeast, and New Jersey. You guys do have a state of emergency and all New Jersey transit and its six vaccine megasites will be closed. In New York City, the snow was not forecast to stop Monday until about a foot had fallen.

And so, again, if you're traveling or if there's anything that you have going on right now, just make sure you check your flight information because there's a lot of places right now under winter storm warnings. All right. Oh, so the snow is dropping today, too. Yeah. Mm hmm. Yep. All day today. So we might get to that foot, then, over here. All right, what else we got, Ye? Well, let's talk about Taylor Bracey. Now, I know we discussed this high school student who was slammed onto the floor by a cop.

Now she has headaches and memory loss, and her mother, Jamisha Bracey, has spoken out about her 16-year-old daughter. I got a phone call from my daughter stating that, you know, some girls wanted to jump her. Two minutes later, you know, the dean called me to say that he was going to keep her, you know, in student services. And so he investigated what was going on. 20 minutes later, I get a call from the assistant principal to say that EMT wanted to check my daughter out. They didn't give me no details on what happened. He handed the phone to the lieutenant EMT for him to tell me that, you know, she didn't have any physical injuries to her, you know, that she looked fine.

I'm telling you, man, if you watch that video, it's going to take a lot of, I don't know what it's going to take a lot of, um, I don't know what it's going to take a lot of. I just know that you're asking too much of me as a human being to do something like that to my daughter, to do something like that to my sister and expect me not to retaliate in some way, shape or form. Like, I don't give a damn. You can have the badge on, you can have the uniform on at the end of the day, you still

a man and you're still a human. So you got to have some type of compassion and empathy for people. The person that did that to that young lady had no compassion and no empathy. Why should he get treated like a human? Right. Like he hasn't been fired yet. He hasn't been charged with anything. Well, attorney Ben Crump joined Jamisha Bracey, who is Taylor Bracey's mother, on TMZ Live. And here's what he had to say. She has problems with memory now. She has blurry vision.

She has headaches. She now. She has blurry vision. She has headaches. She's having problems sleeping. And you would imagine that if you got slammed like this, where your head is hitting the concrete, that you would have severe issues, too, with your cognitive functions. We are demanding that this officer be terminated and be charged with aggravated assault and battery. What's that coward's name again?

I can't remember his name again. I gave him donkey today last week. What's the coward police officer's name? His name should be said. We don't say his name enough. Right. His name is Deputy Ethan Fournier. Yes.

Yeah, there you go. Ethan Fournier. I would Yeah, there you go. Ethan Fournier. I would want this to happen, right? I would want a woman that Ethan loves, right? A daughter, sister, somebody like that, young girl. I want somebody to slam her on her head, and I want to see how he reacts. And however he reacts is how people should react towards him. Well, I don't want another woman to get slammed, but I would like for him to be charged.

I would like for him to get fired. I would like for him to go to jail because you can't just do things like that. She's a 16 year old and you shouldn't be slamming any woman, period. But you definitely shouldn't be slamming any woman. But I would love to see how he would react to somebody doing that to a woman that he loves. And however he reacts is how people should react yeah yeah that's i mean that sounds good but he's like he's like he said you don't want anybody especially random and innocent to get slammed but you want him to get effed up like you want him to go to jail and you

want him to see to get some real pain because what he did was cowardly come on cowardly not even the word that's an understatement are you just asking too much of a human being as just a human on this planet to do something like that to somebody i love and think there should be no retaliation. Come on, man. Yeah, unfortunately, I don't have much good news for everyone this morning. I mean, there's a school resource officer who used a taser on a female student. They said the girl was involved in a fight with another student. That's also not good news.

You know, the deputy says he warned her. Yeah, you know the deputy says he wanted uh yeah well the cop says he tried to stop her she attacked him by punching him several times in the head and then he said he tried to talk her down it didn't work and she allegedly punched him in the face there's videos on tiktok that are showing the struggle the cop had with the student as he tried to restrain her he said he warned her he was going to tase her if she didn't stop resisting when she ignored that. He fired the taser and she went down when that happened. I don't care what you've been trained to do as a police officer.

At some point, regular human compassion has to kick in and your mind has to say, I can't treat a 10 or 11 year old like this. Now, the person you're talking about was in Rochester and that's a nine-year-old girl. She was handcuffed and pepper sprayed by police officers responding to a report of family trouble in Rochester, New York.

Hold on, we're not even talking about the same thing just now? No. This is the third one? Yeah. That's what I'm saying. It's not good news today. Oh, that mercy. My goodness. Alright, well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is a public service announcement from The Breakfast Club and Bernie Mac. I'll tell you how it is. It's colder than a mother's house. The Breakfast Club.

Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's Mike, man. Mike, what up? Get it off your chest, Mike.

What's up, man? I called you back from last week. Hey, I just want to congratulate you, Angelique. I ain't going to call you this week and get on you about going to Texas. So I'm going to let you slide this week. I ain't going to call you this week and get on you about going to Texas. So I'm going to let you slide, didn't we? But congratulations on opening your business. Well, thank you. I have my 55-inch wig on that Dallas made for me, so that was exciting.

It took him four days to make that wig and color it. Wow. That's all right, though. Make sure you get tested before you come back, though. All right, brother. Yeah, you leave fire and all that, but just make sure you get COVID tested before you come back, man. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Danny, man.

Danny, man, what up? Get it off your chest. Hey, man, I just got a question for Solomon, man. Yes, sir. Hey, man, I just want to ask him how you trust them atgement pills, but you don't trust the vaccine. That's a good point. I'm trying to make you feel you don't know what's in those. Well, no, I can tell you that's an easy answer.

The easy answer is those pills have been around much longer than the vaccine has. Those pills, those penis enlargement pills, have been around for years and years and years, decades and decades. There's so many studies that show they do not work. Okay? All right? There's no vaccine. The vaccine ain't been around that long, sir.

Aye, nah. Aye, nah. But for real, for real, though, I'm a big fan of you, Sean. I'm a big fan. And I was just wondering, can I get, like, a book? But can you sign it if that's cool? I got you. What would you like him to sign it?

I'm not in the studio today, but I'll definitely get it to you this week, my brother. I'll get you a copy of it. I appreciate y'all, man. I love The Breakfast Club, man. We love you, King. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Ashanti.

Hey, get it off your chest. Hey, Ashanti. Well, I honestly feel so embarrassed for saying this. I'm on my way to work right now. My fiance got sent to jail yesterday because of his actions or what he did to me, but I took him back. And I don't know what really to do.

I'm really trying to work this out. Go to couples counseling and see what's going on. But the reason why he went there is because he just doesn't listen and he has anger issues. And I don't know what else to do, honestly. It sounds like he needs to do a lot of work on himself. He needs to do some therapy. Sounds like it to me, some anger management.

He got a lot of unhealed trauma he needs to deal with. Do you feel like you're in danger? No, I'm not sure, honestly. The issue is I'm trying to, I don't know why I feel like I'm trying to help him. And I'm telling to, I don't know why I feel like I'm trying to help him. I'm telling myself I deserve better, but he is a good person and a good man to me, but I don't understand why I'm

taking it back. He's got to want to get the help that he needs, too. You can't make somebody better or make them get help. They have to want to do it for themselves. You're right. I don't know what you want us to tell you this morning because I think that you know all the answers.

You're just holding on to this idea of something as opposed to dealing with the reality of it. But you know what you need to be doing. And sometimes you enable somebody when you actually keep giving them a pass and making excuses. Okay. All right, mama.

All right. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's going on? Yo, it's BJ. What's up, man? Get it off your chest. What's happening, blah, blah, blah? Come on, man.

Grow up, Charlamagne. Yo. No, I refuse. Yo, first of all, yo, I want to say I've been listening to y'all since day one. I wanted to congratulate y'all on y'all 10 years. I didn't get to before, so I wanted to big y'all up. Y'all are basically living legends. Also, I wanted to congratulate y'all on the

Hall of Fame as well. Thank you, y'all. I appreciate that. Yeah, yeah, no doubt. Keep up the great work, y'all. Thank you. But yo, y'all, I don't know if y'all talked about the Wendy Williams show, I mean, movie yet. Not yet. Yo, did you get to help out with your casting or anything, bro? Because they did you dirty, bro.

I told them that. I told them that. They did me dirty. I could wake up this morning and choose violence, but I won't. But it's Lif dirty, bro. I told them that. I told them that. They did me dirty. I could wake up this morning. I could wake up this morning and choose violence, but I won't. But it's Lifetime, though. That's what Lifetime does. Lifetime, Catherine, is historically trash. You got a headband on. Get all types of...

We also this morning are going to have a statement from somebody who Wendy recently spoke about. So that's going to be exclusive this morning. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. It's The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.

I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.

I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe owned country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.

I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.

This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.

So a lot of people were watching this Wendy Williams lifetime biopic followed by her documentary where she gets very honest about a lot of things that happened in her life. She had some struggles with her weight and with bulimia. Here's what she had to say. Weight has always been a big deal to me. And that seed was planted, you know, growing up. My father, the first man who loves you. The first message about my weight is, Wendy, you have such a pretty face if you just lose some weight. I would get weighed constantly by my mother and father.

I knew. I knew that my mother would harp on her weight. You know, it wasn't comfortable for her. And Wendy would make herself throw up after dinner. I stopped doing that. I'll tell you why. Because I was reading about some of these Hollywood actresses who had done that, but her teeth started to rot out. And I said, OK, this is not the way to go. I don't feel like they let the parents explain their position on that enough in the documentary. I was wondering what they're doing that for cosmetic reasons or health reasons.

I wondered why they were so passionate know uh passionate about her losing weight why her parents were passionate about oh yeah why her parents were yes right yeah i mean and your parents can definitely make you feel a way when they're like oh you gained some weight oh you got big oh you need to stop eating that i don't i don't know if you remember but growing up if you were overweight it was like was like you always were made fun of. It was one of those things where especially parents back then wanted you to lose weight. They figured, you know, stay outside, keep working. And I mean, I thought that was in most kids growing up when I used to see it, though, back then.

All right. Now, in addition to that, Wendy was very honest about a situation that happened to her where she interviewed an artist and she says she was date raped. Early in my radio career, there was this artist and he had the number one song on the R&B charts at the time. He came and did an interview on my radio show and he asked me out for dinner. And when we went to his hotel, he invited me to his room and I went. He goes in the bathroom to, you know, do whatever he does. When he comes out, he's got like nothing on, a pair of boxers. And my dumb behinds, they're just getting up and walking out. I'm like, OK, let me see how far this is going to go.

I don't I don't want to have the sex. So he ended up pushing himself on me and he date raped me. Yeah, and they never said his name in the doc but they said his name in the press right she talked about it and she did reveal um what his name was and he's passed uh he's not he's no longer alive and i remember his i guess his widow did speak out and question why she would bring this up now and that he's not here to defend himself. But she did reveal who he was, if you want to search that. Now, in addition, Wendy spoke on the miscarriages that were very difficult for her that she had before finally giving birth to her son, Kevin Jr.

He didn't want to get married. He wasn't marriage minded. He'd never seen a successful marriage. Thank God we were on the same page with that. But then I got pregnant, and things changed. Then we had a five-month miscarriage, and that was devastating. Kevin came to me and said,

"'Look, marry me.'" And I said, "'Yeah.'" So after we got married, I got pregnant again. The entire city saw me have two five-month miscarriages. And I had to deliver the babies, like, with epidural and the push, push, push. And the nurses, they said, "'Do you want to know if it's a boy or a girl? I said, no. Do you want a funeral or what do you want?

I said, just go. Yikes. Man, that's so sad. Well, a lot of that was in Wendy's first book, too, by the way. It's a great read if you've never read Wendy's first book. Right. It's crazy hearing her even discuss it. That's so difficult, just giving

birth, knowing the baby's not going to be alive, but still going through that whole process. She also talked about catching Kevin cheating when their son was only two months old. I wake up like two o'clock in the morning to go to the bathroom. I just delivered him two months ago, and

Big Kev wasn't in the bed. And then I walked into Young Kev's nursery, and I hear my husband talking greasy on the phone. And then I lose it and jump into the room. I say, what's going on? He told me it was some girl, some bank teller. He met at a bank. He's ending it, and so on and so forth. And I honestly

believe that. He was cheating on me. And I don't know how to be a mother. I wanted this, but what do I do now? Did y'all like the movie? Did y'all like the movie? And Doc, what did y'all enjoy? I thought it was entertaining. And regardless of how people feel about Wendy personally, I think she actually has been through a lot. She was very resilient. She was resourceful. She put herself out there. It's not easy.

It's not an easy world to navigate the way that she did. Yeah, I enjoyed it. Okay, Dempsey, what did you think? No, I was going to say, I enjoyed it. I just don't think it was real. Just being in New York and being in the scene in a lot of those times and seeing what went on, that wasn't 100% factual. A lot of the stuff, in my opinion, what I've seen and what I heard.

But it was good. It was a good movie. It's a lifetime movie. She kept it 50. She didn't keep it 100. I enjoyed the documentary more than the movie. It's not that it was a lot of fabrication. It was just a lot of omissions. But it definitely was a lot of fabrication. It was just a lot of omissions. Right.

You know what I mean? But it definitely was a lot of omissions. But it is hard because it's a long span of time, too, to put into a movie. Now, which doc do you like, Charlemagne? The one you're in or the one that you're not in? What are you talking about? Because you pulled yourself out of it. One's a doc.

You're supposed to be in a doc. That's what I said. Which doc did you like better? Because you've seen both of them. One's a doc. I pulled myself out of it. You're supposed to be in a doc. That's what I said. Which doc did you like better? Because you've seen both of them. I enjoyed the doc. Yeah, I enjoyed the doc more in the movie. I enjoyed the doc more. I'll tell you one thing, though.

A lot of women that helped Wendy on the way up didn't get a lot of love either. You know, Helen Little in particular. Like, there is no Wendy in Philly without Helen Little. And I feel like a black woman should give another black woman that credit for assisting her back in the game. But that's just me. Drop on the clues bombs for Helen Little, by the way. I don't think Philly got a lot of love in her

story at all. It was just kind of like a drive-by on Philadelphia. Philly did get a little bit of love. She said she did Philly New York call back and she, you know, raced back to New York. But yeah, got a little love. But Philly's what really, really put her back in the game. You know what's interesting?

I was out one night and I ran into Wendy and Kevin and I didn't even know them that well. I only knew Wendy from having interviewed her a couple of times at Sirius and that's when I had gotten an offer for Philly to do mornings and they came up to me and they were like, listen, don't go to Philly.

They were like, whatever you do, don't go to Philly just wait for a new york offer to come through don't go do mornings in philly and i was like damn how they even know i got an offer i love philly that's disrespectful i'm just telling you what they said i was like how did they even know about it if you go to philly and you have success in radio nine times out of ten you're gonna have success uh in new york and philly has helped many a radio personality in their day. I was in Philly doing mornings on 100.3 The Beat for like nine months before they fired my ass. Okay.

But she told me she said she went to Philly. She said she went to Philly because she couldn't be in New York. So she had to go to Philly until she was able to go back to New York. Yeah, but that means a lot. You know what I mean? Having that place that embraces you and you still get to, you know, keep your name out there and keep your radio chops going. Like Philly means a lot you know i mean having that place that embraces you and you still get to you know keep your name out there and keep your radio chops going like philly did a lot trust me i was looking for apartments already i was like let me see where can i live if this

happens so she even got the whole how you doing phrase she got that from wendy i mean wendy got that from philly i forgot the brother all name. D-Light, I think his name is? Well, we'll be talking more about this, and I'm sure people are going to call and weigh in as well, but that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now we got front page news. Next, what are we talking about? Yeah, you know, the news has been very depressing

this morning, but I do have something we want to talk about. A UFO that was spotted. That's right. My cousins are here. Let's go. My cousins are here. Let's go, baby. 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 E., Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Now, where are we starting, Ye? Well, let's start with this UFO.

There were clear shots of a UFO that was spotted above the freeway on the outskirts of LA. And an eyewitness took these pictures last Saturday. They said she was on the phone and then she saw this thing hovering in the sky, flying in the same direction she was heading with a group of lights that were trailing behind it. The eyewitness said she shot three consecutive photos. And I don't know. Did you all see these pictures? They said it's not Photoshopped. You're damn right I saw them.

No, I saw them. You know, I'm all in on UFOs and extraterrestrials. And if you've been paying attention for at least the past two years, they're preparing to tell us what we already know. And what we already know is that we're not alone in all of these millions of universes and galaxies okay and there are it's intelligent life that's way more intelligent than us out here in these streets these universal streets yeah so who knows what's about to happen

soon we need it the world are they friendly and humbling yeah we need to know if they're friendly if they come in peace human or they want or they need to know if they're friendly. If they come in peace. They're human. Or they want to smoke. Well, they're not human. They got emotions just like everybody else. Would you walk up to the UFO if it was on the ground? No. Nah. Nah, but it depends, right?

It depends on how they come to us. You know what I mean? And by the way, we keep calling them aliens. We're aliens to them as well, you know. We're just not as smart as them because if we were, we could travel to their planets and things as well. We can't, but they can. I'm telling you, if you think

that the universe is not as diverse as the Earth, you're bugging. All of these different life forms that's here on Earth, all of these different animals, things in the water, things in the woods, things in the sky, you think the universe isn't as diverse? You're crazy. Come on. All right now former president donald trump's his five impeachment defense attorneys have left him and it's about a week before his trial is set to begin so he did hire two new attorneys but why would they leave at the last minute like that they said he's been

having some problems because their ship came Nobody on Earth would represent him. Nobody on Earth would represent him. Aliens came and then the aliens was like, you know what? This is a losing cause. That's what the UFO was over L.A. They were picking up his defense team and they left. I saw what some speculation is because they're saying as an attorney, you cannot defend something that you don't agree with or you don't think is true. And I guess he's been focused so much on this fraud with the election and they didn't agree with that. So some people

are speculating that's why, because he really is focused on this fraud and it's not really about the Capitol riots and all of that. So I'm not sure why these attorneys have left him, but he does have two new attorneys that are representing him, a defense lawyer, David Schoen and Bruce Castor, who is a former DA from Pennsylvania. He faced some criticism for his decision to not charge Bill Cosby in a sex crimes case. And the other attorney that we just mentioned, David Schoen, actually met with Jeffrey Epstein about representing him because he doesn't believe that Jeffrey Epstein also committed suicide, he said as well. So those are his two new attorneys. Jesus Christ.

Yeah. And one last thing, Anderson Cooper, he confronted a man who is part of, well, was part of QAnon. And it was an awkward conversation on CNN. Listen to this. Did you at the time believe that high level Democrats and celebrities were worshiping Satan, drinking the blood of children? Anderson, I thought you did that. And I would like to apologize for that right now. So I apologize for thinking that you ate babies. Your speaker's Q specifically mentioned you and he mentioned you very early on i'm going to be honest like people still talk about that to this day there were posts about that just four

days ago some people thought you were a robot oh my god what people people like that are the biggest losers they don't believe in themselves or their own greatness and when they see somebody else being great they have to justify their own failures by saying oh that person's only in that position because they eat babies or that person's only in that position because they drink blood that person's only in that position because they do sacrifices you're not much of a loser you have to be and how much uh low self-esteem you have to have and how much not belief in yourself you have to have to justify your failures by saying stuff like that about other people come on it's just so weird all right well that is your front page news all right thank you miss ye

now when we come back let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051 now the wendy williams movie was on lifetime over the weekend did you see it let's talk about it what were your thoughts phone lines are wide open 800-585-1051 let's talk about it it's the breakfast club biggest what's the biggest lies you saw from the wendy williams movie that's another good topic boy it's topic time call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Now, if you just join us, we're talking about the Wendy Williams movie. Now, we're asking, what did you think? Charlamagne said, what was your question, Charlamagne? I mean, what were the biggest lies from the Wendy Williams movie? But I mean, you know, if you weren't close to the situation, you wouldn't know. So let me let me ask you, let's start with you. What were the biggest lies on that movie? You know, it wasn't so much fabrication, but I just think a lot of omission. You know what I mean? Like the way the way they made Kelvin look in the movie.

Kelvin was was was was far from who I think he was. Did he hold Wendy down? Yes. But he also used a lot of those insecurities she had about her weight to keep her down. You know what I mean? Like, that's the mental and emotional abuse. He would constantly remind her that she was a fat bitch. Nobody wanted his constant words, not mine. And I think Kelvin being a tough guy,

I don't know where that came from. Because I've seen Kelvin get punked quite a few times in these streets uh you might well maybe but maybe she felt like maybe she felt like he was protecting her maybe she didn't even really know that's true but you know i wouldn't tell you you're also very close to the situation and you you have uh a huge hate for uh kevin hunter i don't i don't hate him hate is a strong word i just i dislike him i i don't know no no he is a trigger for me let me ask you a question that man was hanging off of a cliff and you were there would you help him up or would you be like you're on your own bro i'd pray for him i see you whatever god i say whatever god got planned for you in this moment okay is what he had what god had planned for you in this moment, okay, is what God has planned for you in this moment.

I hate you, man. And I don't like how they brushed by Philly in the movie. You know what I'm saying? As a radio guy, you know, Philly has played a very pivotal role in a lot of radio careers. And it definitely played a pivotal role in her career. And I don't think Wendy took the time to not only properly big up Philly, but big up another black woman who gave her that opportunity in Philly. And that's Helen Little. You know, I would have liked to hear more mention of Carter and Sanborn, you know, Colby and D. But, you know, D. Lee is where she got to. How you doing from? I just think it should

have been a lot more, you know, homage paid to Philly. But I will say this, you know, it's a long lifetime. I mean, this is what, 40 years of Wendy's life broken down to what, two hours, three hours. So there's a long lifetime I mean this is what 40 years of Wendy's life broken down to what two hours three hours so there's a lot that had to be taken out and a lot of the producers are looking for the juice they're looking for the things that's going to keep people there and maybe they took a lot of that out because even when the actor was there

they said they took a lot of the scenes out especially they said the domestic violence they took out so they took a lot of things out you know well she said that she said that that never happened at all what's that she never that she never got physically abused i saw her say that in the documentary the actor said it that they took it out listen i got eyes i mean whatever well maybe maybe she didn't want to do that because of their son too yeah maybe but between the movie and the documentary it's just still little tiny details especially in the doc that i thought could have um

could have been highlighted but more but more more specifically you know her time and her time in philadelphia and i feel like she brushed past her time at hot 97 too she did she definitely played such a pivotal role in her career like i understand that you know she may have some ill feelings toward hot 97 but don't just brush by it because of your ill feelings you know what i mean no and at the time and don't you think charlam because of your ill feelings. You know what I mean? No, and at the time... And don't you think Charlamagne's character should have been in there a little bit more? No.

It wasn't about Charlamagne or Skeletor or any of our other co-hosts. I don't think. This was her story. That was a brief moment in her life. I worked with Wendy for three years. That's a blip. That's a blip in a 56-year life.

Now, I do agree. I think Hot 97, I think Hot 97, think Hot 97 in my opinion made Wendy that name that she was. Of course WBLS took it to another stratosphere but you got to think during that time they had, think about it, they had Starbuck in the morning, Wendy Williams doing middays

Angie Martinez and Flex at night and then they have Fat Man Scoop doing overnights like that was the dream team. I understand this movie was an hour and 30 minutes. I mean, how much stuff can you get in it? But even with the doc,

the doc was another couple hours. They could have got some of that stuff in there. Like how you just brush by to fight with you and Angie Martinez. But she referred to Angie as some part-time little part-time. Yeah, that was whack. You know, she was never no part-time.

She was full-time and she was busting ass and she continues to bust ass. Shout out to Angie Martinez. Angie Martinez is a whole legend. Her and Angie Martinez got into a fight, and Angie Martinez gave her a two-piece and a biscuit. Whoa. I don't know about all that. I don't know what it was. I would say it was being a panada.

I would say it was being a panada. A two-piece and a panada. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. Salute to Angie Ma. Shout out to Angie Ma. Let's go to the phone lines.

Hello, who's this? My name is Ashley. I'm from North Carolina. Well, I actually live in North Carolina, but I'm from Philly. Okay. What did you think about the movie? The When Do We Is movie? What's up, Charlamagne and Angela?

Hey. What's happening? So, Envy, basically what I felt, I would agree, Charlamagne and Angela? Hey. What's happening? So, Envy, basically what I felt, I would agree with Charlamagne because she did do a drive-by on Philly. I never heard of her before the time of her being at Philly, and I'm 34, but I always knew her to be in Philly first, in my opinion, but that's just how I saw it. The whole how you doing is exactly what Charlamagne said,

and it was a short time. She made it seem like it was a few months, a month or two, and then it was just like, all right, I'm done. How long was she on? A couple years in Philly. Yeah, I thought so too. She spent a lot of time in Philly, and I thought that she

really needed to embrace that because we did embrace her a lot. A lot. 100%. All right. Well, thank you, Mama. 800-585-1051. We're talking about the Wendy Williams movie. Did you see it? What were your thoughts?

Let's discuss it, all right? Mr. Breakfast Club, good morning. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.

I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.

Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullet holes, yeah. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. If you just joined us, we're talking about the Wendy Williams movie. We're asking what were your thoughts. Let's talk about it. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Big Phil from VA. How y'all doing, Breakfast Club? What's talk about it. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this?

Hey, this is Big Phil from V.A. How y'all doing, Breakfast Club? What's up, Big Phil from V.A.? What's your thoughts on the Wendy Williams movie? Oh, my God. Why Charlamagne wasn't in there? He was. I know, but the dude they had playing was a quick snippet. So I wanted to know if Charlamagne,

are you going after him for that? Because I know your beef is with Wendy. It's not actually. I mean, it's with Kevin, not with Wendy. No, I got love for Wendy. You know what I mean? Wendy is an abused human being and has been an abused human being for a long time. So I have empathy for Wendy. But no, I don't have no beef.

I didn't wake up this morning and choose violence. I don't care. Okay. All right. Well, I appreciate that. Thank you. I want to give a shout out to my wife, Keisha. I love you, baby.

Okay. Hello, who's this? This is Ashley. Hey, I appreciate that. Thank you. I want to give a shout out to my wife, Keisha. I love you, baby. Okay. Hello. Who's this? This is Ashley. Hey, Ashley. Good morning. What did you think of the Wendy Williams movie? You know, I thought that she was telling some of the story, but not telling all of the story.

It was like some things, it was obvious that she was leaving out details and it just wasn't making any sense. Yeah. She kept it 50, not a hundred. She kept it 50. Yeah. I feel like it's hard for anybody When they're telling their own story to be completely honest

I don't know that people really do I read people's autobiographies And I'm like there's always more than one side And I feel like people see themselves differently Than other people see them too But even if you tell your side of the story There should be details in there That make your side of the story make sense

Like even when she was talking about going to rehab she started talking about how she was drinking too much wine but then she passed out in the in the statue of liberty costume but she never actually said she passed out because she was drunk she just showed her passing out so she never actually connected the dots so it's kind of like wait what a lot of a lot of half truth was in that definitely was a lot of half truth in that yeah okay all right well thank you mama hello who's this this is latisha you loved it okay okay yes good good good okay so what you loved about it because it showed vulnerable parts about her whether it was true or not you guys you have to admit just her being able to tell that type of story showed a different

side of wendy that somebody is going to actually learn from and it's going to encourage somebody out there even the rape thing there's someone out there today that because of what Wendy showed, that person is going to say, you know what, let me tell this in therapy or let me tell my mom or let me tell my dad that this happened to me. Everybody knows about Wendy, but she's valid in a lot of circles, you guys. She really is. Well, a lot of those stories she's been telling for years on the radio and you know they were they were in her first book if you ever read her first book but i get i get what you're saying this is a new generation yeah it's not that charlamagne so um i didn't start hearing about wendy until i moved to delaware and that was in 2005 so there's people who never like my mom for instance my mom my mom hates Wendy Williams, but she watched the movie and now she's looking at her differently.

You know, she's looking at her. Yeah, she she encourages me just because of her story and just because she's a woman and where she's been able to. And so it's just like you, just because where you guys have been able to get yourself is encouraging to women, whether, you know, there's going to be part, because this is Wendy, she's going to tell her story, but that's what we all do. We want to be able to tell our story. And that's what she did. She told her story the way she believes it, you know, and, and there's, there's fragments in there that I'm pretty sure are true, but I think it was needed. And the documentary, for me, you guys, was a lot better than the movie.

Me too. I agree. Me too. I watched it twice. I watched it twice. Right. It gave me something this morning, you know? Right.

Okay. Listen, regardless, right, it was entertaining enough that people have already watched it twice. Everyone was talking about it. It was trending. Yeah. All right. Thank you, mama. 800-585-1051.

Let's take some more calls. A lot of people on the lines. Let's talk about the Wendy Williams movie. What were your thoughts at the Breakfast Club? Good morning. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club let's talk

about it morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now if you just join us we're talking about the wendy williams movie and documentary what were your thoughts all right let's go to the phone line hello who's this this is kim slash keigo and columbus represent columbus cincinnati in ohio what did you think of the doc man the movie So, Lo, who's this? This is Kim slash Kigo, and Columbus represents Columbus, Cincinnati, and Ohio. What did you think of the doc, man, the movie? And actually, sorry, I got a frog in my voice this morning, but I am a female. I got a deep voice, okay? Sorry.

So sorry. No, you cool. No, you cool. I understand. I understood Wendy's story, okay? Wendy fell in love. I understand a lot was fabricated for TV. I get it.

But at the core of it, she fell in love with an African-American male. She didn't go out, nothing against foot outside the race, but she wanted a brother. She liked it rough on the edges. She accepted him for him. He accepted her for her. But at the end of the story, anybody that does not understand why she, everybody has a breaking point. It was about him having another baby. Now, women could sit here all day long and say, I would have left a long time ago. She was in love.

Her self-esteem when she was a kid was low, but she fell in love. So I think we need to stop blaming African-American women for being as strong as they are and staying with our brothers. And it's their fault. No. The breaking point was on pillow talk, he knew she had miscarriages. He knew he fought that fight with her. And then to go have another baby, that blew the top off.

That is something Wendy would always say that. Wendy was like, I can forgive cheating, but I can't forgive a baby. She would always say that. She already felt inadequate. She meant it. That wasn't cool. That wasn't cool. But I just wanted to say I love your show.

I love your show. You guys fit knowledge through the whole campaign, through everything. I appreciate you. Keep doing what you're doing, okay? Thank you. Hello, who's this? It's Keira from Fairville. Hey, what's up, man?

What do you think about the Wendy Williams movie? Well, for me, man, I was in Philadelphia from 03 to 05, and I was basically there for the Wendy Williams show, so I didn't bother to watch it because I seen the trailer, and it really wasn't what was portrayed throughout the city. How you ain't see the movie, but you called to give your opinion, man. You ain't see. You ain't exactly.

I seen the trailer, y'all. I seen the trailer. I seen the trailer. Goodbye, man. You ain't see. I seen the trailer, yo. I seen the trailer. Goodbye, man. Even though I don't like how she brushed by Philly. Like I said, Philly played a very pivotal role in her career, and I don't think she took the time to properly big up Philly.

And, you know, big up people who helped her in her journey. You know what I mean? Like a Helen Little, you know, all the morning team that she did the show with in Philly. Kobe Cole, D. Lee. D. Lee is where she got How You Doin' from. Carter and Sanborn. You know what I mean? I just thought little you know all the morning team that she did the show with in philly kobe kobe uh d lee d lee is where she got how you're doing from carter and sanborn you know i mean i just thought you know i just thought the radio part of it a lot more love could have been shown all right all right well we got rumors on the way oh wait a minute more of the story i think i want to say i think

wendy deserves all the flowers but i really hope she gets real healing one day because she experienced a lot of hurt so she hurt a lot of people and she's been mentally, emotionally, and physically abused her whole life. Her sister Wanda said something real interesting in the doc when she said when Wendy's life was like falling apart the last couple of years, Wendy thought it was because of all the dirt she had thrown on people. And I thought that was a very interesting observation for her to have. So, yeah, I appreciate everything I learned from her. But a half-truth is still a whole lot to me. All right.

Now we got rumors on the way. Well, we'll talk some more, Wendy. This person has written a statement about Wendy Williams in response to some things that Wendy Williams has had to say about her and her family. And I'll tell you who that person is. But she did say that Wendy will forever be one of the most miserable bitches on the planet. I can't believe Sharina Hudson would send you a statement. Shut up, man. Nope. It's not Sharina Hudson.

Shut up. That came from Charlamagne. But we'll talk about it next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk. I'm on Wendy Williams.

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. All right. Well, Method Man's wife, Tamika, has spoken out and she's released a statement on her Instagram page in response to what Wendy Williams had to say about Method Man. She was talking to DJ Suss1 and here's what she said. The only thing I did, I smoked a blunt with Redman, excuse me, with Method Man while I gave him a bath and it was a one night stand. And he'll deny it. Maybe not. That wasn't in the movie. It wasn't in the movie.

It wasn't in the movie because Method Man is still very angry at me. Why? I don't know, for being me. It was one night. All right. Well, Tamika broke it down on her social media, on Instagram. She said, for years, I kept my silence. And this is the first time she's ever

addressed this at all, by the way, while Wendy Williams launched constant verbal attacks against my husband, myself and our family. In the past, I ignored her lies, innuendos and blatant attempts to provoke us, but Wendy has proven again and again that she is incapable of any decency. Her obsession

with our lives has reached a new low and I'm tired of taking the high road. In an obvious attempt to increase ratings for her sad biopic, her struggling TV show, and her burnt out career, Wendy has once again targeted my husband. It's a pattern that she has repeated for years. When I was diagnosed with cancer years ago, Wendy shared my personal medical information with her listeners live on the air during her radio broadcast. She didn't care that she was violating my right to privacy or that I hadn't shared the news of my diagnosis with my family and friends yet. She never apologized, never expressed any regret whatsoever.

Despite my anger, I chose not to respond publicly to her unhealthy fixation with my husband and our marriage. It was clear that she was sick and that she was struggling with a lot of issues, including self-hate and low self-esteem over the years. Those issues have made her increasingly ugly, both inside and out and no amount of plastic surgery can fix the ugliness inside of her. Instead of using her platform to uplift women, she has spent her career attacking marriages while her own fell apart. She criticized celebrities battling addictions,

despite her own struggles with substance abuse. There's no limit to how low she will go in the name of making headlines. She goes on to say, for the record, my marriage is solid. My husband continues to enjoy a successful career and Wendy will forever be one of the most miserable bitches on the planet. Jesus Christ. I mean, look, a lot of valid points made.

A lot of valid points made. A lot of valid points made. You know, Wendy is miserable and that's why I send her healing energy because I've never seen her happy before in my life. And yes, you should apologize to Tamika and her family because you don't do that to people. I mean, it was...

Someone didn't even ask the question. You wanted to say that and met the man, Tamika. Y'all should have sued Wendy Williams a long time ago when she released that information. That was against the law to release that information. You should have sued her. You should have sued the station. You should have made sure that never happened ever again.

Cause what that did was foul. That information should have never been out unless you wanted to put that information. Now we've been here, you know, doing a breakfast club for a long time now. And there's times when we say something to an artist and the artist has said, Hey, you know, I don't put that information out. We've been here, you know, doing the Breakfast Club for a long time now, and there's times when we say something to an artist, and the artist has said, hey, you know, I don't want that information out. My family doesn't even know, and we went back on some of the stuff that we've done, so we know what's right, and that was foul.

Well, Mef did want to sue, though, because I remember when Mef came to the radio station one day after Wendy and Kelvin were on the air kicking his back in, and he came to the station, and that was one of the reasons he Kelvin were on the air kicking his back in and he came to the station and that was that was one of the reasons he did come to the station because he was like I just need to know who at the hospital gave you that information so I can file a lawsuit absolutely absolutely right and he should have worked he was there during that time like Wendy can't act like

she doesn't know why Method Man has an issue with her. Of course he has an issue with you. You revealed his wife's cancer diagnosis before she had a chance to address her own family. Yes. Of course he has an issue. And you was working there during that time, Charlamagne? Yeah, I was on the air that day, and Kelvin and Wendy was kicking Meth back in, and Kelvin walked downstairs,

and I guess as he was walking down, Meth was coming up. I'm shocked that they didn't see each other. And the secretary was like, Meffy man's in the lobby. So I called Calvin. I'm like, yo, Meff's in the lobby. He was like, yo, for what?

I'm like, yo, you know for what. He's like, well, go out there and see what he wants. So my dumb ass went out there to go see what Meffy man wanted. And me and Meff had a conversation. And he wanted the information from the hospital. And of course he wasn't happy about what Wendy and Kev was saying

but needless to say Kev never brought his monkey ass back up to that station even though I know he was probably right downstairs but he did not come back up when he knew Mef was in the lobby. Mef should have whooped all your asses. Don't want those problems. Alright so that statement again is on Tamika's Instagram page. If you want to

read the full statement of what she had to say about Wendy Williams and Wendy still harassing her and her family. But I think after, you know, decades of having to deal with this, she finally felt like this was her breaking point. Just leave us alone. Stop talking about my family.

And shout out to Tamika. I don't know her, but shout out to her for being so damn strong. Shout out to you. Yeah. I mean, they're still together and still happily married. Meth to you. Yeah. I mean, they're still together and still happily married. Meth is still doing well. So this is the first time we heard her mention this and she kept calling

him red man. All right. Now, Chloe from Chloe and Hallie went on Instagram yesterday and she was talking about her own journey to self-love. And here's what she had to say. And for so long, I used to think I was like fat and and I used to hate my stretch marks and my cellulite. I'm not gonna cry. But it's like now I really love who I am. When I see all the uproar about my posts and stuff, I'm a bit confused. I really don't understand because I've never seen myself in that way or in that light.

So I take it as a huge compliment that you all even think of me as a sexual, sexy being. Man, I love Chloe and Halle. Yeah, what am I missing? People slandering her or something? Yeah, they were mad at her. Yeah, they were kind of like shaming her for, you know,

posting the videos that she posted. And I felt like a lot of people were like, okay, you know, get it, girl. But then there were people that had some things to say about her being sexy and issues with that. Yeah, it's ridiculous.

Chloe, Chloe, that's just hate. Okay, it's called hate. All right. Do we not realize how miserable people are? So when they see you online enjoying your life and other people enjoying you, they get jealous and they get envious. It's called hate. That's all it is. Okay. And in life you gotta

remember the rule of ten two three people gonna like it three people not gonna like it four people gonna be on the fence about it like for people not to like something that's just that's just natural i wouldn't even say that you know what else it's hard for her too she's uh apart from her little sister hallie and hallie has started filming the little mermaid she's got a starring role in that and they were on Instagram Live together and it got very emotional. I just miss my sister's bright personality, her positive energy always around.

She's literally the sun because she just makes everything just feel like brighter and better. And that's what I miss the most about my sister. Yeah. So it's just i don't know it's different and then i'm the little sister so being away just really like tugs at my you're gonna make me cry they are so sweet i really like my five-year-old and my two-year-old are like that with each other i love watching that

yeah and they're very like i've interviewed them a few times and i've talked to them about uh what is it grown-ish that they're on right grown-ish and just the sweetest nicest young women super talented so dope i've seen them perform like they're amazing girls. So let's show them some love. All right. That is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, Charlamagne, who are you giving that donkey to? Well, since I got traumatized by this video, I might as well put y'all on to the story so y'all can be traumatized, too. We need police officers in Rochester to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with them on this fine Monday morning, first day of Black History Month. Alright, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.

Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe owned country. My forefathers did that themselves.

What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a racket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help!

We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on

the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the day. The practice club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years as donkey of the day of a new one. It's Monday, man. Donkey of the day for Monday, February 1st, the first day of Black History Month goes to police officers in Rochester, New York.

I hate when they don't identify these officers as individuals. The reason I believe they don't is to protect their safety, protect their identities. Maybe they don't want to bring shame to their fellow police officers, even though they deserve all the shame this society could possibly give them. Now, I don't even know how I ended up watching this video yesterday because I am not the person who actively seeks trauma via social media. What I mean by that is all the videos of police brutality that circulate online and folks share with each other and it enrages you, outrages you, traumatizes you, and we share that trauma with each other for whatever reason. I don't look for those. All right?

To me, these videos should be used as evidence in a court of law, but hell, I don't even think they hold up in court because we see cops victimizing us all the time on camera and nothing happens but a BS investigation is in paid administrative leave. OK, even though there is never anything to investigate because we all got eyes, you can see what the hell is happening on the video. So I don't know what the point of any of these videos are except to traumatize us. And that's exactly what the video of the Rochester Police Department handcuffing and pepper spraying a nine-year-old girl did to me. Yes, you heard right.

Rochester Police handcuffed and pepper sprayed a nine-year-old girl. I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to WHAM ABC 13 for the report, please. What started as a family trouble call ended with a nine-year-old girl on the back of a police cruiser, handcuffed, then pepper sprayed. Just spray her at this point. I got her. I got her.

Please wipe my eyes. Wipe my eyes, please. The incident again raising questions about the use of excessive force by Rochester police. This is your last chance, otherwise pepper spray is going in your eyeballs. Come on, let's go. The girl pepper sprayed by an officer after failing to comply with police. The call came Friday afternoon for the initial report of family trouble and a possible stolen vehicle. Ultimately, city officials say the child was suicidal, threatening to cause harm to herself and others.

Seriously, what about a badge in a uniform makes you forget you too are human does this badge in a uniform just automatically make you a sociopath like you got called to this house and told that this young nine-year-old girl was suicidal and that she indicated that she wanted to kill herself and she wanted to kill her mom first of all police shouldn't be responding to this where is the mental health team where is the mental health team? Where is the mental health crisis unit? If you know this nine-year-old girl is having a potential manic episode, how does this end with her being victimized

and treated like a criminal? How do you officers treat your own kids? When you see officers treat other people's kids like this, doesn't it make you want to send child services to their house to make sure everything is okay? Because there have been studies that have found at least 40 percent of police officers' families experience domestic violence. When you see the way these officers manhandle women in the streets, it's not hard to believe that.

OK, that that's what they're doing at home as well. And the same goes for kids. If you see officers treat kids like this in the street, how do you think they're treating their own kids at home? I don't know, but it's worth an investigation. Now, of course, Mike Mazzini, who is the president of the Rochester Police Union, he defended the officers actions. Let's listen. The head of the Rochester Police Union defended the officers responding to that call. Union President Mike Mazzio saying those criticizing the handling of that incident have never been in that position. He also added that it's easier for the city to blame the officers than come up with solutions. Mazzeo also said that every situation is different and he feels the police responding that day did everything by the book. You know, when you read the studies of 40% of police officers' families experiencing domestic violence,

it gives three reasons why this is. I'm not going to read all three, but the third really stands out because it says, and I quote, the officer who is abusing them knows how to manipulate the system to avoid penalty and or shift blame to the victim. This is how they do it. When you have guys like the Mike guy, you know, who's the head of the police union, making excuses for these cops, pissball behavior and saying that they did everything by the book. He's absolutely wrong. Okay. And they need to burn whatever book it is that's telling them that this is how they should move. Okay. He's actually, and he's also wrong when he says none of us have been in that situation. Plenty of us have children,

young nine-year-old kids. A lot of folks out there have children who are special needs. A lot of folks have children who deal with mental health issues. There are mental health care workers who deal with kids like this all the time. Ask those folks how many times they've had to put the kid in handcuffs and pepper spray them to restrain them just ask them i would like for you to survey those people i just mentioned and ask them how many times if they had to handcuff a nine-year-old and pepper spray them okay to restrain them see it's the lack of compassion and empathy for me and i felt so bad for that young girl listening to her scream out for her father because I would never want to be a father in that situation.

Because what if her father would have showed up in that moment and chose violence? He would have been absolutely justified to do so. But then he would have been killed. If you did that to a nine year old girl, then we know what you would do to her father who showed up, saw what you was doing to her, and then defended her. I don't see how anyone can make excuses for this. I don't see how anyone can justify this. The girl was nine, and it was five officers, five big grown police officers, and this nine-year-old girl, and y'all couldn't restrain her without handcuffs and pepper spray. How is that protecting and serving? Let me tell you something, something man whatever y'all doing is not working all right that book that the head of the police union was talking about saying that they did

everything by it throw it out all right people get more offended by the slogan defund the police than they do to actions like this that make folks say see this is why the police need to be defunded if this is what taxpayer dollars are paying for, then taxpayers should demand a refund and better service. Okay. I don't have any right ideas. I have no solutions whatsoever. I'm just shining a light on the problem. Okay. I'm shining a light on this so we can constantly have examples on what exactly needs to be changed. I just honestly don't know how to change it. Please let Chelsea Handler give the

Rochester Police Department the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw! Hee-haw! That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. Goodness gracious. Alright. Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Now, when we come back, Plies,

did he say this audio or did he just write it on Instagram or Twitter? Do we have the audio? No, we don't have the audio. I think it was the tweet. He said, dear black business owners, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you black. Make me want to spend money with you because you got a good product, good customer service, and a good price point. Because if that's bad, I don't want it no matter what color you are.

All right. Well, let's talk about it. 800-585-1051. Should you support a black business just because they are black? Let's talk about it. We'll take your phone calls when we come back. 800-585-1051 your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic. Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

It's D-E-J-N-V, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about this tweet that Ply's put out. Yee, you got the tweet?

Yes, he said, Dear Black business owners, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you Black. Make me want to spend money withe, you got the tweet? Yes, he said, Dear Black business owner, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you Black. Make me want to spend money with you because you got a good product, good customer service,

and a good price point. Because if that's bad, I don't want it no matter what color you is. Yeah, I mean, listen, it's nuanced to what Ply said, right? Like, it's actually a couple things going on in that tweet. Number one, yes,

you should support a Black business just because they're Black. If somebody tells me something is Black-owned, yes, I will shop with that person just because they are black and for no other reason. And there is nothing wrong with that. All right. And there's nothing wrong with a business owner, a black business owner, expecting black people to support them just because they are black, because usually the black business owner is building something that they believe black people will appreciate. So the whole for us, buy us concept, that's the real thing.

So, yes, I support just because it's black. But I won't return if the product sucks at the end of the day. OK, the product has to be good. So the blackness gets me there. The good product keeps me. And as far as price point, I'll spend a little more with the black-owned business if the product is good. Correct. If the product is good, I'll spend more with the black-owned business.

And customer service has to be on point, too. I think that's what gets me going to a lot of different places over and over again. They have amazing customer service. So I think that's something that we always have to pay attention to also. Absolutely. Even with the real estate business and the stocks, I always try to somebody that looks like me because I feel like they understand me. So if it's me getting a loan, I go to a brother first to see what he can do. If it goes to my attorney, I'll go to Sabine first. Like there's different attorneys and different places. I try to go with my own first. That's my main. But like Charlamagne said, if the business is bad, I won't return. I try to go with my own first. That's my main. But like

Charlamagne said, if the business is bad, I won't return. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? This is Star. Hey, good morning. Now we're asking, shopping with black businesses. Do you shop with black businesses regardless of anything? Let's talk about it. No, no. I am a business owner. And I absolutely don't think that every person, black or white, should even be a business owner. Because not everybody knows how to service customers. And I just dealt with this at my house with a black contractor. And he completely put me off from black contractors. Like, I'm going big business next time.

Well, should it be black contractors or just bad contractors? Because contractors are shady people regardless. Yeah, they're cons. That's the whole word. Cons. They are cons. Most of the time. My daddy's a contractor, but these contractors, I'm dealing with contractors now, boy, you

got to watch them. Yeah, you were just telling me a story the other day how he tried to charge you a triple? Yes, they will bleed you dry if you let them. It's crazy he tried my contractor sent me an invoice before he was even done with the work like we didn't do a walk that's contractors and i tell everybody that all the time contractors will use your money to finish somebody else's job and then have to get some more money to finish your job that is contractors and on a side note mama i don't know what you're doing, but if you can

buy all the materials yourself. You know what I mean? That way, all he has to do is just install it and you're paying him an hourly rate. But if you can buy all the stuff yourself, buy the flooring, buy the sheetrock, the nails, the studs, buy it yourself so you ain't gonna worry about it. I wish I was talking to you a couple weeks ago

because he's already done. And the work was shoddy so damn it man but don't let don't yeah and don't let it turn you off from black contractors that's just a contract you just got to find the right contract yeah i had a lot of issues real quick um completely off topic charlamagne i just want to thank you for your um your your book um black privilege um yes ma'am because there was a that was the reason why i actually started my business you had a um when you were talking about how you were working for free at first and sometimes you have to um go out and put your foot out there and do things if you try to get to a

certain place and it kind of just pushed me forward and started my event planning business. So I just want to say thank you. Salute to you, Queen. I'm happy I could inspire you in some way. That's dope. Do you want to name your business too? So people can look you up. I'm in Virginia.

I service the Hampton Roads area. It's 2010 Events and Design by Star on Facebook, Instagram, and 2010events.com. All right, mama. All right. I'm going to look you up because we do so many homecoming parties and homecoming events. So we'll look you up and try to get you some more business. 800-585-1051.

We're asking. Plies, put this tweet up. You want to read the tweet one more time, me? Yes. He was talking about black business owners. And he said, dear black business owners, stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you black. Make me want to spend money with you because you got a good product, good customer service, and a good price point because

if that's bad, I don't want it no matter what color you is. Alright, well what are your thoughts on that? Supporting black businesses, call us up. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. call me and your opinion to the breakfast club top come on 800-585-1051 morning everybody it's d.e.j envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now if you just joined us we're talking about a tweet that plies put out about supporting black businesses now uh it says dear black business owners stop wanting me to spend my money with you and shop with you just because you're black make me want to spend money with you because you've got a good

product good customer service and a good price point because if that's bad i don't want it no matter what your color is so we're asking 805-851-051 for your thoughts let's go to the phone lines hello who's this hi this is kathleen from orlando hey good morning we're talking about supporting black businesses what are your thoughts okay so um my thoughts are yes depending on certain products i will look initially to support black businesses i have a lot of friends of mine that are local black business owners. But what I think a lot of black business owners don't understand is that you have a lot of other people, also brown people, and also people of other ethnicities doing and selling the same thing.

You have to find out what is going to separate you from that. And sometimes it's going to be your price point. Maybe it's going to be your customer service. Maybe it's going to be your price point. Maybe it's going to be your customer service. Maybe it's going to be the product itself. But a lot of black business owners don't take the initiative to really understand what it is to really own a business. Some just want to pop up one day and say, hey, I'm selling this, not really understanding what it is to want to actually have a good black owned business and really do what you're

supposed to do for yourself and your community. So I will support a black business, but a lot of black businesses make it very very hard to do but you also got to understand that a lot of businesses especially black businesses this is first generation so they're they're figuring it out as they go you know a lot of these other businesses they've had family members that own businesses that own all types of firms that created companies before a lot of the stuff that we even even myself even buying a house like this was really my my parents were the first ones in their family to you know in their family to buy a house but they couldn't really teach me because they didn't

know so i had to figure it out on my own i had to take those bumps and bruises my kids will know because i'm able to teach them you know by the way by the way y'all y'all treat black-owned businesses differently than y'all treat others y'all don't treat black-owned businesses differently than y'all treat others. Y'all don't give black-owned businesses no grace at all. That is true. Absolutely. We are our own worst enemy sometimes. So on both ends, we have to support, but the black business is envy.

With you being first generation, you took those bumps and bruises, but along the way, I'm sure you you are treating yours and the people that you were selling houses to your head really good communicative skill you want you know trying to bug people over the head with prices and things of that nature yes we're in the business for profit but that shouldn't be your goal sometimes that is the only goal and this is solely from my experience from my experience no i get it i get it but that was the reason why i got into doing the seminars i will always always support a black business before i initially support a white absolutely because again i have friends who have black businesses right absolutely

absolutely thank you mama that was the reason why i got into seminars and most people don't know women who have black businesses. Right, absolutely. Absolutely. Thank you, Mama. That was the reason why I got into seminars, and most people don't know that. I got into seminars because there was people that looked like me charging people $10,000 and $7,000 to teach them how to purchase a home and to flip, and that irked the

ish out of me. Because I'm like, if you have that much money, don't give it to him. I'd rather you use that money and invest in a home. So that's, that's the only reason why we started this. I mean, I was like this, that's, that's highway robbery. That's robbery with no mass. Like, no, you don't do that to your own people because they see you successful and people want to get success. So they use in their, their savings to try to do that. And that's the reason, that's the only reason why we did seminars and try and the reason why I try to help so many people get in the homes. That was, that's, I want to see more of my own living living in homes and not renting and owning their own home

and passing homes down to their kids and teaching their kids how to home ownership and investments that's the reason why i'm so hard you know some hard on i i agree with you what's the moral of the story the moral of the story is you should support a black owned business just because black owners should expect black customers to support them but the product has to be good to keep us coming back correct and if it's a brand new business sometimes you got to give it a shot because i've been places where the first time i went you know there's sometimes some kinks you have to get rid of and iron out and then things get better so sometimes if it's brand new it it just opened this week. Give it a little bit of time.

I don't know about that. I'm going to give you one shot. One shot only. If the food is disgusting, the bad, I ain't going back. If it's the restaurants that I've been to when they first opened and then it's so much better now.

Like maybe it's just sometimes things don't work right away. Yeah, you're right. All right. Well, yeah, we got, we got it.

We got to give each other grace. Yeah, definitely got to give each other grace. You're right. All right. Well, yeah, we got it. We got to give each other grace. Yeah, definitely got to give each other grace. You're right. All right. Well, we got rumors up next. What are we talking about? Yes, TI has responded to these sexual assault allegations. He put an Instagram PSA out.

All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let me send a happy birthday to my wife today is my wife's

birthday february 1st so uh just brought her some breakfast uh bacon uh she likes uh three eggs over easy a croissant and then a sausage that's my sausage by the way whoa ew happy born day gear drop on the clues bombs for gear yeah we canonds for Gear Yeah, we can't do anything today Well, we can't do anything Because we're in a pandemic, really But it's snowing, it's nasty It's a state of emergency here So we ain't going anywhere

So we just gonna make snow We can do some fun things in the house Yeah, we did that all last night But when you got five kids running around It's kind of hard to do fun things So we're just gonna be outside But anyway Fun is not all just sexual envy.

Okay? Yeah, I didn't even say anything about sex. What's wrong with you? Jesus Christ. Get your mind off the gutter. You are disgusting. I have five kids, guys. Come on, grow up.

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk TI. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, T.I. has taken some time to respond to these sexual assault allegations. And these are from their former friend, Sabrina Peterson. There's multiple women, according to her, that alleged that they were drugged and assaulted by the couple at different

times. Now, she also says that T.I. pulled a gun out on her during a prior altercation. And T.I. explains why he hasn't said much yet, even though there's all these rumors going around. And Sabrina had been posting statements from different people. And it turns out, looking at some blogs, some random people were just sending in some statements to see if she would post them. So none of what she posted was vetted out and confirmed in any way. So TI says this is the motive behind the allegations. If a person does not have any right to criminally or civilly have you in court, the best thing they could do, it gets you for a defamation. That's the strategy. That's the

intention. Say a whole bunch of false stuff about you that get people to believe and make them come out and say they're a liar they're a liar they're a liar and then they can say see they call me a liar that's defamation then they drag you in court get you under oath and all that because unfortunately right now it doesn't matter as much what they can prove you did it matters what you could prove you didn't right yeah well he goes on to talk about uh believing all women this is what he said women who have been victimized deserve to be heard black women in particular should be supported protected defended and uplifted however evil has no gender. Now, what we're not going to do is open up the door to my bedroom for everybody to come in, chime in, and make their opinions about what we do and don't do or should or shouldn't do.

But I will say this. Whatever we ever have done has been done with consensual adults who enter what we enter and like what we like. Yeah, I don't even really understand how this became headlines. If I get on social media and I say, send me stories on such and such individual, do you realize how many of these digital D-heads will send you stories just to get reposted? People get off on seeing things they created or came up with go viral. So how do we know any of those stories were real? They all could have been completely fabricated,

but you see certain sites just posting it because they don't care they just want the traffic also notice that certain sites didn't even report on the story until ti replied to it denying the allegations because up until that point it's not a story certain outlets have to vet these things before they post them they can't just repost anything because now they are liable and i want everybody to have that same level of journalistic integrity well and i a lot of these sites though aren't real news sites they're just there to report on gossip so that's the defamation of his character i mean he could have had deals he could have had movies he was trying to do endorsements and they all shut it down because of these fake stories and now he has to go back and prove that these stories are fake, which is foul.

Now T.I. is denying the allegations. Well, here's what he said. Here's T.I. denying. We never forced nobody. We never drug nobody against their will. We never held nobody against their will. We never trafficked anything sexually, trafficked anything. I never raped nobody also i'm gonna tell

you what's on what's factual there have been fake stories put up that blog sites anonymously sent to this person and what this does is it dismantles the mechanism that women have created for themselves you can't weaponize something with baseless claims. These are not stories of actual events. And I have proof of that. Yeah, nobody cares about the truth and the lie is more entertaining. And the truth is never as loud as the lie. Because I saw some sites reporting on how, you know, I guess it was kids or online trolls sending out these stories because they know they would be reposted. And they were laughing about it.

But I didn't see any real major outlets reporting that all right well that is ti's response to all of the drama and i just want to give one more shout out to bridgerton that is netflix's biggest show okay and i told y'all this show is amazing and but you watched it charlamagne you still haven't watched it you gotta watch it i haven't watched it yet yeah it's pretty good it seems like all my wife's friends they have chats they talk about it they talk about the the one scene where the dude was licking the spoon uh it's a it's a it's a show that the sexual scenes are very passionate and the show is passionate a lot of people seem to love it my wife is happy that it's coming back another season so and shout out to cardi b also and we're not going to have a chance to play this audio but she did say she has an announcement that she's making today is it going

to be new music let's see what it is but yes we'll be looking forward to that announcement and congrats to kelly roland she gave birth to a second son. So congratulations to her. Noah John Weatherspoon. Drop your booze bombs for the Godiva Chocolate Goddess, Kelly Rowland. Salute to my guy, Tim Spoon. Congrats on y'all. New addition to the beautiful family.

Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and that's your Rumor Report. And it's Black History Month, so of course it's Black History Month. We have to represent for our Black people and who we represent in today, Charlamagne. Today, on the first day of Black History Month, we have to salute a new Black History Month legend who has solidified her spot in the black history books. When it comes to dating, going together, seeing somebody, whatever you want to call it. This young lady has done to men what men have done historically to women, and that's simply whatever the hell she wants. Ladies and gentlemen, today's new Black

History Month legend, Lori Harvey. The Breakfast Club presents a new Black History Month legend. That's right. Today's Black History Month legend, Lori Harvey. You can't be mad at a young lady living her life. She don't love him. She might f*** him. She don't chase him. She ducks him and replaces him with another one. According to Distractify, Lori Harvey's hit list includes Dutch football player Memphis Depay,

Justin Combs, Trey Songz, Justin's dad Diddy, Future, and now Michael B. Jordan. Drop one of Clues' bombs for Lori Harvey's playaways. Big step. She's been on Meek Mill's wish list. I got Lori Harvey on my wish list. That's Lori. That's the only thing I want for Christmas.
