Episode Date: May 20, 2019

Today on the show we had the one and only Shaggy stop by, where he spoke about his new album, his relationship with his mother and more. Also Charlamagne gave "Donkey of the Day" to a woman who would be considered to be a ride or die chick, who tried to get her boyfriend out of jail, but instead she got herself in prison. Moreover, we opened up the phone lines to listen to the crazy ride or die stories our listeners had when it came to their relationship.

And they told me, Envy, you come and you play the hip hop and you'll be good. So I thought they were going to have a Nigerian band or maybe another Nigerian DJ. But no, it was all on me. So I played about an hour and 45 minutes of Nigerian music. I didn't know you knew that much Nigerian music. I don't. That's the thing. I don't.

That was Haitian. It was an all-white party. Sac passe. Told my Haitians out there. And then I just got That was Haitian. It was an all-white party. Sac passe. Told my Haitians out there. And then I just got back. I just took a shower in the parking lot. Yeah, I could smell it. So wait, how do you take a shower in the parking lot?

Well, I have baby wipes in my car. I got five kids. So that's not a shower. Well, for me, it was a shower. That's called a, you had a little bird bath. You wiped off. Get your wet wipes. I squeezed the baby wipes over my head, so that's a shower.

Alright? You know we have a shower in here, in this building. Yeah, but I don't have flip-flops, and I'm not walking in there without no flip-flops. You know how disgusting those floors are? Hell no. You should get flip-flops. So I went and I just got a toothbrush, toothpaste, and deodorant and cleaned myself up. Well, I was supposed to

That is true. Might be correct. You know how that works. How is it though? What's the day? Monday. Oh, okay. This guy. Well, front Might be correct. You know how that works. How is it though? What's the day? Monday. Monday. Oh, okay.

This guy. Well, front page news is next what we're talking about. Well, let's talk about a billionaire and what he did for Morehouse College. All right. And today is be a millionaire day. That don't have nothing to do with billions. Be a billionaire. But, you know.

All right. Well, let's get into that. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. Stupid DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.

Let's get in some front page news. Last night, the Toronto Raptors beat the Bucs 118-112 in double overtime. Yes, I was watching that game, too. Bucs lead the series 2-1 tonight. The Warriors take on the Trail Blazers for the sweep at 9. Going for the sweep. I disrespectfully ought to say that Golden State can't win without Kevin Durant. They don't have a

two-time MVP, three-time NBA champion named Steph Curry on their goddamn team. You keep saying that, but who's these people that are saying that? You don't watch sports,

do you? I do watch them all the time. There's no way you watch first take ESPN when they're having debates saying that Golden State cannot win

without Kevin Durant. There's no way. They won how many championships? You watch first take, right? Don't they say that all the time?

What are you talking about? I don't know. So I watch Game of Thrones so much, man. I miss Game of Thrones, so don't remind me. Don't talk to me about that. What else we got, Yee? Well, let's talk about Morehouse College seniors and the amazing surprise that they got yesterday

when billionaire investor Robert F. Smith made an announcement during his commencement speech about what he's going to do for that class. Men of Morehouse, you are surrounded by a community of people who have helped you arrive at this sacred place and on this sacred day. On behalf of the eight generations of my family who have been in this country, we're going to put a little fuel in your bus. Now, I've got the alumni over there, and this is a challenge to you, alumni. This is my class, 2019, and my family is making a grant to eliminate their student loans. Wow.

Yeah, drop on the clues, Mom, for Robert S. Smith. You know how many people are like, damn it, where was he when I was graduating? That's amazing. Let's not just say billionaire, black billionaire. That's amazing. All right. All right, so that's 396 students, and they are still calculating what that amount is going to be. Estimated $40 million.

But that's amazing. He's worth about $5 billion, according to Forbes. That's great. He's the richest black person in America. He's 56 years old. He was a chemical engineer for Goodyear and Kraft before going to business school, and then he worked for Goldman Sachs. He specialized in technology investments, and then he started Vista Equity back in 2000.

They invest solely in software, data, and technology companies, and then they started Vista Equity back in 2000. They invest solely in software, data, and technology companies, and they have capital commitments of $46 billion. That's amazing. He'll be on The Breakfast Club real soon, by the way. Okay. I don't know if y'all remember when we had Deion Taylor up here a couple weeks ago, and Deion Taylor and Robert Smith were business partners, and Deion was waxing poetic about Mr. Robert Smith.

He watches The Breakfast Club, so drop on the clues bombs for Robert Smith. Good morning to that, brother. All right, now, Oprah Winfrey also did some amazing things as well. Now, she surprised... It's crazy Oprah can see a poor next to somebody, right? A New Jersey principal at Westside High School, the principal Akbar Cook, she surprised him with half a million dollars,

and that's for his Lights On program. Now, I love this program. What they do with this program is they keep students off the street. They give them a safe place to hang out on Friday nights until 11pm. You can go there, shoot pool, play video games. They even have a studio, a recording studio where you can make music,

lay down some tracks and all of that. That's amazing. She donated half a million dollars to that program. Yeah, I saw Oprah flexing on somebody yesterday too. I guess she spoke at some school. She gave a commencement speech and somebody was like, you should have paid off this student loan. And she was like, excuse Yeah, I saw Oprah flexing on somebody yesterday, too, because I guess she spoke at some school. She gave a commencement speech, and somebody was like, you should have paid off this student loan. And she was like, excuse me, I've already paid $13 million

to Morehouse, sent 400 men through Morehouse. Knock it off. All right, well, yeah, that was at Colorado College, those graduates there. She actually donated her book, The Path Made Clear, to everybody in that class as well. So, you know, just doing positive things. It's messed up.

That's a great thing what Robert did, but now every commencement speaker after that, they're going to be like, are you going to pay off my taxes? No! That's one in a billion. For real. I don't mind those kind of challenges,

but yeah, I feel what you're saying. Like, yeah, I don't think that you should force anybody to do that. You shouldn't ask nobody. And by the way, Robert was already, he was already giving Morehouse 1.5, but in the process of him giving that speech, he decided to do all of that. He already had Gaten 1.5.

All right, and just so y'all know, if you're traveling, there's about almost 50 million people under threat of heavy rain, hail, strong winds, and isolated tornadoes this week. There's going to be some storms moving east. According to the National Weather Center, they said there's at least 38 tornadoes that have been reported since Friday morning in Kansas, Nebraska, and Texas. And all kinds of flooding is going to happen throughout the week. So just be careful, everybody. If you are planning to travel, make sure you check out what's going on with your flights. I only gave like a thousand to Hampton last year. Listen, you better step it up.

You went there. First of all, act your wage. All right, Robert Smith is worth $5 billion, so he's acting his wage. Oprah's worth a couple billion dollars. She's acting her wage. Okay, everybody act your wage. That's what's Smith is worth $5 billion, so he's acting his wage. Oprah's worth a couple billion dollars. She's acting her wage. Okay. Everybody act your wage. That's what's wrong with y'all Negroes.

Y'all want to act above y'all wage all the time. I just feel like you should be doing more now for your own. You are doing a lot. I know, but. You're just doing what you are able to do. You're right. That's what I was wrong with y'all. You're right.

Thank you for hugging me, man. Thank you for making me feel good, man. You're doing what you're able to do. You're right. Robert's doing what he's able to do, and Oprah's doing what she's able to do. Everybody do what you're able to do. You're right. Robert's doing what he's able to do, and Oprah's doing what she's able to do. Everybody do what you're able to do. All right. Well, that is front page news.

Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a horrible weekend, or maybe you had a great weekend. Whatever it may be, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

It's 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. DeAndre. Yo. Yo, what's up, bro? Get it off your chest. Well, first of all, I just want to say I had one hell of a weekend.

First time camping with my son. We did a tent. Yeah, I had a blast, but I'm tired as hell. So I decided to really think about teaching my son how to shoot. You said you taught your son how to shoot. What, guns? He wants to see basketball. Yeah, guns.

Okay. I want to teach my son how to hunt. He said basketball. That's a good valid question. He's 11 years old, and his mom don't think that he's too young. Where you from? I'm from Indiana. Well, it depends what you're teaching him to shoot for at 11. If you're teaching him to shoot for hunting, I don't think that he's too young. Where you from? I'm from Indiana. Well, it depends what you're teaching him to shoot for at 11. If you're teaching him to shoot for hunting, I don't think that's too young.

But if you're just teaching him to shoot for protection, that might be a little bit too young. Well, I mean, my thing is this, you know, say he's staying with me, say he's with me, something happens, you know what I mean, and I can't protect him, then, I mean, he gotta know how to protect himself.

What's the legal age in Indiana? They can shoot a shotgun or a fire at any age with a parent. They can't own one. I think the age to shoot is eight, I believe. Yeah. Oh, all right. Well, dang, you late. No, I mean, his wife doesn't want his son to know how to shoot.

I taught my son at 13 and 12. My daughter was 13. My son was 12, and I taught him how to shoot. They to know how to shoot. I taught my son at 13 and 12. My daughter was 13. My son was 12 and I taught him how to shoot. They both know how to shoot. Yeah, so I mean, is there anything wrong with that? I don't think so. No, not at all. Yeah, because my son, he's a big he's a big, he's been watching this dude Bear Grylls on YouTube

and all of a sudden he just want to become live in the wild type of man, you know? Yeah, I mean, like I'm from the country, so in the country you learn to hunt pretty young, you know what I'm saying? So, you know, I don't see the problem. I mean, like you said, he just has to be responsible. You got to make sure he knows, you know,

the real responsibility of a gun, not just how to shoot. And, you know, the laws, I had to teach my son the laws to let him know what was going on. But I did teach my son just in case something happened and I wasn't home and he had to hold down a fort. My wife knows how to shoot. My oldest daughter knows how to shoot. And it is what it is.

You know what I mean? Yeah, because you never know. You could be in Walmart, you know, and people don't care where you at these days. They get to shooting and get to acting crazy. That is a fact, my brother. If something was to happen to me, if something was to happen to me in Walmart, if something was to happen to me, you know, I got to make sure my you know i gotta i gotta make sure my son can survive bro why are you trying to convince us we with you you need to go convince your wife yeah that is true i mean that's a tough one and i wouldn't you know

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up. Wake up. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. 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. Brandon, what's up, Brandon?

Man, I wanted to get it off my chest. I've been trying to get a hold of you guys forever. Go ahead, bro. My brother, I was chasing my music dream. I went to Interscope. I met with Tunja. He listened to my music. They told me no, I didn't have a big enough following.

In the meantime, my brother-in-law was murdered. He was shot like a block from his house. So the police officers didn't do anything. So what I did, I went to be a police officer. I worked my way up to the thing. I took down the guys that did it to them. And then they ended up turning in a video of me having some weed on the table from like 10 years ago.

And they dropped the whole case. And now I'm back to square one. And I'm back to this music thing. And I just wanted to give a shout out to my brother-in-law. I know he's watching over me. And I love y'all. I listen to y'all every morning. And that give a shout out to my brother-in-law I know he watching over me and I love y'all I listen to y'all every morning and that's what I needed to get off my chest. So they let you go as a police officer?

Well, technically I didn't lose my T-Cost license and it's the second you get a T-Cost license and so but the other agencies won't hire me because I had that on my background you know what I'm saying? And the dude ended up getting caught with like 30 grams of cocaine, and they were actually cooking dope inside the house

when the state police went in there. And then they just threw all of that away. So now I feel like, you know, 10 years of my life doing this for my brother and it all went down the drain. So now I'm back to this music thing. And now I've adopted his seven kids on top of my three kids. And I'm the only one working, trying to put my wife through school. She graduates in August.

I mean, everything's looking up. So I just wanted to, you know, let the world know what I'm going through. All right, brother. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Her 9 from Romulus. What's up, Her 9? What's going on with y'all? You know, let me just tell y'all what's on my mind.

This might take a while. Oh, boy. So I'm an ex-veteran. I'm a war veteran, you know, 28 years old, and I've seen a lot of death. And I'm trying to get it off the street. So what I was trying to bring up to the president was MAGA by magic. MAGA by magic. What is that?

Make America great again by making all guns illegal. Because for one, Nick Cannon got to finish Nipsey Hussle work. You know what I'm saying? Oh, boy. Like, you know, it's just the whole thing. You know, I'm trying to get. What does making guns legal got to do with Nick Cannon finishing Nipsey Hussle work? How did Nipsey Hussle die?

He got killed. How? By a gun. But what that got to do with Nick Cannon finishing Nipsey Hussle's work? Like, he's finishing the documentary. The Dr. Sebi documentary. But, my brother, once again, what does making guns illegal have to do with it? I think that's his sister, brother.

No, well, okay, look. Y'all didn't hear. This is the plan. It's not really making it illegal. I think so. It's not really making it illegal. It's just like trying to clean up, you know, guns off the street.

Okay. Well, what are you going to do? You going to pull up at the White House? Well, look, this is the thing. I would if I could. My plan to tell the president, like, okay, you turn in your registered weapon, a registered weapon in your name over to the government, and then you get a 3% discount card, right, from any store.

And anyone you add up to that, you know, any weapon you add up to that, you know, is 1% more. I can't. I can't this morning, guys. I'm still confused as to why guns have to be legal in order for Nick Cannon to finish. You hold on. You got a lot on your mind. You hold on, all right?

Yeah, okay. All right. He lost me at some point. I'm tired. I just had a little bit. I'm tired. Anyway, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time. Now, you got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to talk about a boxer who was posting some very disturbing messages on Instagram about not wanting to live anymore, and it's not the first time he's done something like this. Also, what rapper is back in

jail? We'll tell you why. Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, and don't forget, Shaggy will be joining us next hour. Mr. Boombast. 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 for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it.

I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. 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 tried my 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. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going.

That's what my podcast, Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. 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. Heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop.

Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.

Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Trust me, I know from experience, hiring is challenging. But fortunately, there's one place you can go where hiring is simple, fast, and smart. A place where growing businesses connect to qualified candidates. That place is ZipRecruiter.com slash breakfast. It's been so challenging because we own a business, Juices for Life in Brooklyn, and the turnover rate, I mean, there's a lot of people there, it's their first job, or they're doing this as they're going to school at the same time, so people's circumstances change all the time.

We're always having to hire new people, and anybody that gets hired has to have a food handler's license. So that also narrows down the playing field. Fortunately, with ZipRecruiter, we are able to find qualified candidates. It doesn't take too long, and we don't have to worry about applicants who don't have that license.

and Leslie Jones was actually doing the weekend update, and one thing that she discussed was the new anti-abortion law in Alabama. Now here's what she had to say. And what made me so mad was seeing the 25 Alabama senators who voted for the abortion ban. Look at them. All men. This looked like the casting call for a Lipitor commercial. This looked like the mug shots of everyone arrested at a Lipitor commercial. This looked like the mug shots of everyone arrested at a massage parlor. And if any of them had lips, I would tell them to kiss my entire ass.

Not just all men, all white men. Give them prehistoric pale faces the credit they deserve. All right, now in addition to that, she had this to say about the Alabama anti-abortion law and about the war on women. The fact that nine states are doing this means this really is a war on women. And if you're a woman out there and you feel scared or confused, just know that you're not alone.

There's so many women out there that got your back, especially me. You can't tell me what to do with my body. There you body. You can't make me small or put me in a box. I'm six feet tall and 233 pounds. Ain't no box big enough to hold me. And I know because one time I tried to mail myself to a dude. Okay, well, Saturday Night Live was the season finale last night, and DJ Khaled was on there as well. He was the musical guest, which was hosted by Paul Rudd, and during that set, he brought out Lil Wayne, SZA, Meek Mill, J Balvin, Big Sean, John Legend, Jeremiah, Lil Baby,

and it ended with a tribute to Nipsey Hussle. Yeah, that whole block was so crazy on Saturday night because I went to Radio City to watch Tyler Perry's My Dear Farewell tour. It took forever to get on that one block. I had to get out and walk. Wow. All right.

Now, Adrian Broner was on social media and people are very concerned about him. He posted that demons were taking over him. He said, I don't want to live no more. I want to kill or be killed. So I don't know what's going on with Adrian Broner. If somebody has spoken to him, he said, and nobody hacked my page. This me, bitch, and I'm by myself.

It's like the second or third time he's done this, right? Why we don't lock people away when they say stuff like that? Not lock them away, but at least take them and put them in some type of facility until we figure out what the problem is. Then he said, tonight I want somebody to try to kill me so I can kill them or die. Then he said, tonight I want somebody to try to kill me so I can kill them or die. Then he said, at this point, dying is a compliment to me.

I know I'm going to go die soon. It's mental health awareness, right? And that is a prime example of somebody screaming out for help. So why don't they grab him and commit him and give him the help he clearly needs? It's not the first time. That's what I'm saying. They should have helped him the first two times he did that.

Are we going to wait until he actually snaps and does either kill himself or kill somebody? And then say, oh, we should have helped him? Like, do it now. Right. So that's it. I don't know what's going on with him. But if you guys remember, in the past, a couple of years ago, he had posted at 3 p.m., I'm doing it. I'm sorry to my family and friends, but I don't want to be here no more.

This is too much. And 2018 were the ones where he said, tonight I want somebody to try to kill me so I can kill them or die. All right. Keep attracting that kind of energy into your life. But clearly the brother needs somebody to talk to. He needs help. All right.

NBA Youngboy is back in jail again, and that's for a probation violation. We told you about the shooting that happened in Miami. That was the whole Rolling Loud Festival weekend. Now, according to his attorney, they're saying that he was only taken into custody because of his social media posts, and he actually was the victim of an assassination attempt. They tried to shoot at him. He wasn't the person with the weapon. He didn't commit any crimes. According to his lawyer, it's a terrible and tragic incident. And, you know, that's the whole reason that he's in custody right now. You know, his girlfriend

Kay Marie was hit by a bullet and at least one person was killed. Now, according to reports, he's been in jail saying that he wishes the innocent bystander who got killed hadn't died in the shooting. He's been saying I wish they would have gotten me instead. What is he in custody for again?

Probation violation. Which makes no sense. You tried to kill me. How did he violate probation? I thought he got shot at. Well, according to his lawyers, it's only because of his social media posts that he's been putting up. So I don't know. What has he been putting up?

But even like, what did he put up? They said there was a post where he was talking about the shooting and he was threatening retaliation. Well, they're really picking and choosing who they're incriminating over social media posting. Yeah, so. Because you get a lot of these guys that be threatening people via social media.

I know when I interviewed him, he said part of what he had to do for his probation is he's been told to kind of stay away from social media. So I guess he's not supposed to be posting, but he has been since before this, so I don't know what's going on with that. But there was a period of time when he didn't have his social media at all

and he was off of it. I'm not mad at that, though. I do like when people get real-life consequences because of the stuff they post on social media because people be way too reckless and too loose on social media at times. Yeah, I mean... Not in this case, though. I don't know if he should be in jail right now.

They tried to kill him and shot his girlfriend. He didn't do anything. He didn't have a weapon. Yeah, but you just said he threatened somebody on social media He didn't have a weapon. So I don't know. So you just said he threatened somebody on social media. I think it's because of, I don't know exactly what he said, but that's what they're saying is the reason for it, that he's been threatening retaliation. Yeah, retaliation.

But retaliation means call the cops and get them arrested. That could be retaliation, correct? Shut up. You know good and well enough now what that young boy meant. How do you know what he meant? Because he's a young boy, all right? Well, that's what his lawyers should say. Lawyers should say retaliation meant calling the police and getting somebody locked up.

All right. Now, Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West, what is the name of their fourth child? Well, that baby's name is Psalm West. That's P-S-A-L, like P-S-A-L-M. So that's the baby's name, Psalm West. She said he's here and he's perfect. And, you know, they had that baby with the surrogate. She posted on Mother's Day, beautiful Mother's Day, with you know, they had that baby with the surrogate. She posted on

Mother's Day, beautiful Mother's Day with the arrival of our fourth child. We are blessed beyond measure. We have everything we need, so now we know that baby's name. No dropping of clues bombs to them. Four children is a beautiful thing. Northwest, St. West, Chicago West, and Psalm West. Two girls, two boys? Can't beat that. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and

that is your Rumor Report. Alright, we got front page news next year. What we talking about? Well, you know what? We were talking about Leslie Jones on Saturday Night Live with the Weekend Update. So now let's talk about Donald Trump and what he has to say about these anti-abortion laws. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

You can't stop that kinky, man. What are you talking about? I ain't saying nothing. You kinky, man. You're hearing things. No, I ain't hearing nothing. You kinky.

Anyway, let's get in some front page news. Okay. All right, here we go. There you go. Toronto Raptors beat the Bucs 118-112 in double overtime. Yes, indeed. Good game. And also, tonight, the Warriors take on the Trailblazers.

Dropping the clues behind for them Golden State Warriors. Damn it. Up three games to zero against the, who the hell are they playing? I just told you, Trailblazers. Everybody's saying, oh, they can't win without Kevin Durant. As if Steph Curry didn't win a championship before Kevin Durant. As if he's not a two-time MVP. Like, knock it off.

Now, what else are we talking about, Yates? You're not going to talk about Deontay Wilder? Oh, man. Dropping a clues bomb for Deontay Wilder. Doing in 137 seconds what it took Anthony Joshua seven rounds to do. Okay? Putting Brazell on his ass. You know how many people were so upset that they bought that on pay-per-view?

It wasn't on pay-per-view. Oh, I mean, that they bought tickets to the fight. Some people said they paid for it. Why were they saying they paid? Maybe they meant for the tickets. Because people were lying. That was on Showtime. I was not on pay-per-view.

Let me tell you something. I was on my way because I told you I went to go see a play with my mom, Frankie and Johnny, and then I was going in the grill to watch the fight, and it was over right before I got there. It was over so quick. That reminds me of the old Tyson fights. People used to get, my parents would never buy a Tyson fight because they'd be like, it's going to be over in one round. Yeah, you'd be so mad.

I just want all the Anthony Joshua fans to know Anthony Joshua is a great guy, but he don't want no smoke with Deontay Wilder, okay? And I've already told Anthony Joshua that to his face. He was up here. What else are we talking about? All right, now let's talk about a really tragic situation that happened. There was a shooting at an Alabama high school graduation party. One person was killed and eight others were wounded at a community center.

This happened early Saturday. A fight broke out between two women during a graduation party for Escambia County High School seniors. They were trying to separate the women and that's when gunshots were fired inside. Several people were hit. Eight wounded people were taken to a local hospital for treatment. And we told you again, one person was killed. The suspects did flee the scene and they are still at large. All right. Again, one person was killed. The suspects did flee the scene, and they are still at large.

All right, now, Donald Trump, what does he have to say about all of these anti-abortion laws that are happening right now? Well, according to Donald Trump, he said, as most people know and for those who would like to know, I am strongly pro-life with three exceptions, rape, incest, and protecting the life of the mother, the same position taken by Ronald Reagan. He tweeted this out late Saturday night. He said, if we are foolish and do not stay united as one, all of our hard-fought gains for life can and will rapidly disappear. So Alabama right now has the strictest abortion laws, and they forbid abortion in nearly all cases, which includes rape and incest.

All right, now let's switch to something positive. Morehouse College seniors got an amazing surprise yesterday. Billionaire investor Robert F. Smith did announce during his commencement speech that he is giving all of that graduating class of 2019 a present. Men of Morehouse, you are surrounded by a community of people who have helped you arrive at this sacred place and on this sacred day. On behalf of the eight generations of my family who have been in this country, we're going to put a little fuel in your bus. Now, I've got the alumni over there, and this is a challenge to you, alumni.

This is my class, 2019, and my family is making a grant to eliminate their student loans. That's amazing. Students were overwhelmed with gratitude. Student loans really are something that can be very crippling to you mentally. It took me 12 years to pay off my student loans. And I kept having to defer, defer. You can't just ignore them because they don't go away, except in this case, they will. But, yeah, you have to make sure you handle that.

Yeah, dropping the clues bombs for Robert F. Smith. Very important to note, when you say billionaire, you have to make sure you handle that. Yeah, dropping the clues bombs for Robert F. Smith. Very important to note when you say billionaire, you say black billionaire. Okay, worth $5 billion. Richest black man in America and he don't rap or have a wicked jump shot. Richest black person in America, man or woman. Yes, that is true. All right, so congratulations

to that class and amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing of Robert Smith to do something like that. He has his own equity company. He specializes in technology investments, Vista Equity. They invest in software, data, and technology companies, and they have capital commitments of $46 billion. But he is worth about $5 billion, according to Forbes.

Yeah, you know, just pay off everybody's student loans at Morehouse, that class. You know how amazing that is? A little light, light estimated $40 million. 396 students that he's paying off. A little light estimated $40 million, you know. And if you're traveling, be careful. Like I told y'all earlier, 48 million people are under threat of severe weather. It's hail, rain, and tornadoes are moving east.

So just be careful. If you are traveling, make sure you check your flights to make sure that everything's still on point. Okay. All right. Well, that is front page news. Now, when we come back, Shaggy will be joining us. Yes.

Reggae artist Shaggy. He'll be here. He got a new project. He just did a project with Sting a couple of months ago, and we're going to kick it with him, so don't move. One of the top reggae artists of all time. Absolutely. Hey, Monday sucked, too. As far as streams and sales.

Monday sucked. I need a stretch, a massage, on my back crack. Why you looking at me? I was not looking at you. He was looking at me going, you want me to be looking at you.

Crack my back. Massage, yo. Stop looking at me. All you guys, I like when people hug you so hard, your back cracks. You guys should hug each other.

I'm down for a little hug this morning. I'll pass. It's the Breakfast Club this morning. What? What you mean? What?

You offended? I passed. Yes, I am. How dare you? My gosh, it's the Breakfast Club. I'll kiss you in the mouth right now of the Morning. What? What do you mean, what? You offended? Did I pass? Yes, I am. How dare you? My gosh, it's the Breakfast Club. Maybe I'll kiss you in the mouth right now. All right. What?

You always take it too far. You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show. Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, Shaggy. Welcome, Shaggy. Never get tired of saying that, right? No, never at all. You're saying special guest in the building. Shaggy. Welcome, Shaggy. Never get tired

of saying that, right? No, never at all. Same exact way the whole time. I'm waiting for Charlamagne to say his famous Jamaican phrase. Wagwan.

Wagwan. Wagwan. Wagwan. Wagwan. Wagwan. That's the one Charlamagne knows is Wagwan.

He says that every morning. That's all you really need to know. That's exactly. And that's why I named the album. I named it like I was looking for a name

that embodies the culture of Jamaica and all that, but I wanted something that everybody globally would know it. I was like, you know, that is it, Wagwan. Can it mean, like, depending on how you say it, can you say it like you're about to fight? You could do that too, but that's the way you could say it any other way. It could be Wagwan as you're asking what's going on,

and it could be Wagwan as I'm telling you what's going on in the case of the album I'm gonna tell you I tell you wagwan So this is you really telling us what's going on cuz you do have more personal songs Yeah on this album than usual about a life changing year man. Really what changed what changed in your life? People in your circle. Mm-hmm People I lost about probably about five people in my inner circle. Because of disloyalty? Yeah.

I mean, the universe has a way of basically taking care of you. If you're a really good person, it will take care of you. Because sometimes your emotions, you're so emotionally attached to people that you can't really make those clear-cut decisions. And you just got to leave them and they'll self-destruct because at the end of the day, there's always a straw that breaks the camel's back. What was that straw? Was it stealing? You said five. Five is a lot.

Yeah, a lot of times it's finances. For a year, five is a lot. Yeah, it's a lot. I can see it really weighs on you. Oh yeah, it hurt. But it was a bittersweet year because I had see it really weighs on you. Oh, yeah. It hurt. It hurt. But it was a bittersweet year because I had a great year with Sting.

It was a good year, a lucrative year. Congrats on the Grammy. The Grammy winner. It was a good year, right? But then at the same time, you know, because I brought a lot of people in on that. And then just the dynamics of how it was. I was like, whoa. You know what I mean? When you get to a point where you got a cat-like sting that's treating you better than people

who have made their whole lives with you, you got to step back and just kind of look. And then there's a self-esteem thing that happens, too, because when people are underachievers, I wouldn't say underachiever, but that's probably how they do it. When they have their own insecurities, they'll put their insecurities on you. Yes. You know what I mean? And then you start to feel insecure. Take somebody like Sting now, who's, you're talking about a 19-time Grammy,

you know, 150 million, you know the resume. And then he's looking at you and following your lead and thinking that you're absolutely great and what you're doing is unique and, you know, you're uplifting his thing and then make you stop and check and look around but hold on what what have y'all done without me you know i mean and how how that impact you know i mean so it it was a lot of dynamics man and a

lot of emotions and i'm i'm a libra i sweep things under the rug i hate confrontation so it was it was it was rough and those people start taking you for granted. Oh, absolutely. Because in order to make themselves feel better, they got to talk to you. Yeah, and it just, you know. But it's tough because a lot of them became family. You know, they're uncles and aunts and whatever it is to my children. And I'm the type of person, I don't know if it's a flaw or it's a protective mechanism in me. When I'm done, I'm not going back.

So there was no resolution. It was irreparable. Done. There was no resolution. Did you try or did you just say? I don't want to try. I don't. I've done.

That's how I've been for years. That's how I am too. Somebody does me dirty, I'm done. I don't care. Yeah, because of the fact that I get my heart. Maybe it's a yellow thing. But when you give so much of yourself and you give your all, it really, it's a betrayal that is irreparable.

So working on this album, was this while this was happening and then you did this album or was it, or was this album pretty much done before you were going through this? Yeah, I did this album to come out from before the Sting album. I was scheduled to come out

and I didn't, I didn't go into the album with Sting to do a Shaggy and Sting album. I went into the album to help Sting do a reggae album and we started doing it as his record

but then I, you looked around and I'm on like eight tracks. I'm like, dude, you gotta take some of this off. And he's like, yeah, but I like all of them. I'm like, but you can't i'm on like eight tracks i'm like dude you gotta take some of this off and it's like yeah but i like all of them i'm like you can't have a album with eight tracks with me on on it and it's like well let's do it together so now i had to go back to 300 and and brooklyn nice and shadow on them and be like yo i'm gonna put this record on hold and

we're ready we're getting ready to pull the trigger and you know they allowed me because these are my guys and we went ahead and did the whole sting thing but now i had to come deliver their record now you know at the top as soon as i'm done and we won the grammy it was great time and everything was good um but then i listened to the album that i had and it wasn't me anymore really yeah but you had outgrown it and that that showed a lot of time well no it's been six years since your last album right it was six years since last time but just where the records that I made the year before, compared to where I'm at now,

there was a lot of things in there. It wasn't me, and I just had a lot to express. And I didn't want to do it with anybody else. I didn't want anybody else writing. So I just sat and wrote it all. I did it in like seven days. Oh, so you redid the whole album. Yeah, the majority of it.

One of the two tracks I kind of kept because a couple of people was already in love with them. So I... The label. Is it therapy for you, though? Because, you know, I look at your life, and I know you a long time, Shaggy. You don't need music, you know what I mean?

You're financially well, you're saving your life. Well, financially, no, but for... I disagree with you on that. What part? It's air. It's air. What's air? The money? No, but I disagree with you on that. What part? It's air. It's air. What's air? The money?

No, music. Oh, got you, got you. It's air. He breathes in music. You know, I'm shitty at everything else. Really? I suck at everything else. No, that's not true, Shaq.

I'm sure you got some other talents. Brother, let me tell you something. You don't want to see me kick a ball. That's it. You don't want to see me kick a ball, don't want to see me kick a ball brother I'm telling you this and it I suck at everything I was not and even academically I'm you know I have a tension problems I can you know yeah I start reading I get bored it's it's these things the only thing that gets me the arts anything in the arts again right I can't and and music is is it's therapy it's it's life it's you know I I live when I go people ask me why I tour so much and go so hard you know I have to it's it's it's the only thing I know

I mean I actually I actually like even working out and taking care of myself I do that better on tour when when I'm not on tour you know I eat all kind of I mean and just do that better on tour. When I'm not on tour, you know, I eat all kinds of shit. I mean, just, you know. Being on tour is a workout too, in itself. I guess,

because every night I'm on there for two hours and I'm sweating under these lights and I'm, you know, it's better. So you're one of those people

if you stopped doing music you probably would like wither away and die. I'm fat. Yeah. It's all, you know what I mean? That's your passion.

We know people like that. Like if you think about Joe Paterno, the coach at Penn State, when they fired him, he died, like, within a couple years. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. And even my boy Sting, I'll tell you what, you take him off tour, it's a wrap.

Wow. All right, we got more with Shaggy when we come back. Let's get into a Shaggy mini mix. Let's go. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was a Shaggy mini mix. Good morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Shaggy. Yee. You know, it's interesting that you say all of this as far as the people around you because anybody looking at Shaggy and the success that you've had as an artist

would think that you would be very confident and secure and not feel like anybody would not make you feel like you were this big star. Because we look at Shaggy like everybody across every genre of music knows who you are. So I would think you would know how you need to be treated. Yeah, but to everybody, people who I don't have a close relationship with, it's easy. I don't give a **** what you say. You can say whatever the **** you want.

It don't matter to me. That does not affect me. It's the people that you value their opinion. You know what I mean? That's why you got to be careful. And I read something the other day that if you, I remember what I see, where it says, if you look at your circle and you're not inspired, then you're not in a circle, you're in a cage. Yeah.

You know what I mean? You kind of have to look at things like that. I'm like, wow. I mean, you're in a circle. That's your lean on. In my record, I have a song called Wrong Room. You know what I mean? Where it boils down to, I said, if I'm their go-to, who's my go-to?

Right. You know what I'm saying? If everybody come to you with their problems and you look and you fixing it and you say, well, what if I'm a problem? Any of these motherfuckers could fix my shit. I say it all the time. Who did the go-to person go to? Yeah.

That's why I go to therapy. Therapy is good. Yeah. You know what I mean? I did therapy. Like you sweep things under the rug. I'm learning not to, though. You know what I'm saying?

I'm still a work in progress in many ways. You know what I'm saying? And the thing is that when you are a dude from the ghettos, ghettos of Kingston, there's so many traumas that come through you from before that you don't even know. Because ghetto life, I'm used to, I remember the day, I said, I remember the day my mom bust my ass in front

of all my friends. I remember the ass whooping. I remember what I was wearing. I remember what she used. I remember what it is. And she used to have this thing where she'd send you to go get... That's the worst thing anybody... Go pick your belt.

I'll pick a switch. And then you try to pick the smallest belt. How traumatic is that, bro? Some people aren't supposed to be parents, bro. And you said you've had a strange relationship with your mom. Yeah, that's hard, too. That's still hard. Because I'm an only child, too. It's been how long since you guys have spoken?

I haven't spoken to her in probably three years. And that was a hell of a beating she put on you back in the day. No, but I think I'm starting to get to a place where I don't think that it's her fault. I just think that she was in an environment where we were very poor. It was from a poor family ghetto. Why don't you speak to her, though? I try to, but it's so toxic because she's verbally abusive. And then she's verbally

abusive to my children and my family and all that. You know, you don't take it as West Indian people are a different way because, you know, my mother's... I should. I should. Right. But I'm a type of person that I watch what I say to people

and how important it is for how you speak to people. A joke is a joke. I take a joke all day. Don't matter how bad it is. As long as it's a joke. When you start to be really serious, you've got to be careful. Words are powerful, man, and they're impactful. They move you emotionally and upset you to where it could cause damage

for the rest of your life if that person really cares for you. You know what I mean? And upset you to where it could cause damage for the rest of your life if that person really cares for you. You know what I'm saying? So you got to be very – I could excuse it, but when are we going to stop excusing it? Because that's how it carries forward. To me, I didn't want that to carry forward to where that – that f***ed me up, then I started doing it to my children.

You said something earlier. You said some people shouldn't be parents. Did you feel like your mom shouldn't have been a parent? Yeah, yeah. I think there's something. There's so much abuse. I don't even think she knows it's abuse. It's abuse to where it's probably emotional abuse.

You know what I mean? Because what we look at as abuse right now, that's norm to a lot of people. You know what I'm saying? But they don't know the psychological effect it has on kids or on people. You know, I look at some, like now I'm out, I step out and I look at it. It's like, take for instance, you live in a nice house now. You're all good.

You ever go back to the projects and go in the elevator and smell the piss? Hell yeah. Doesn't that bring something back to you? Yeah. And you're kind of disgusted when you step inside of it. Like, man, this is f***ed up. I do that all the time when I go home to Musk on the second line. I'll be in the trailer.

We grew up in the single-wide trailer. I'm like, how did we all love this thing? Exactly. It became norm. So I'm saying abuse becomes normal after a while. Right. So in the ghettos, when you get, when, you know, my friends get their ass whooped and yelled at and screamed at and slapped and punished. And to me, it was like norm. Right.

Because you adjust. You know what I mean? But as you go along, it has a psychological effect on you. But if you're not strong enough, you know, thank God I was strong enough to kind of overlook. And I don't even know if I'm strong because I'm still suffering from a lot of things emotionally at the same time. But when you get to that point, you're like, yo, you know,

it must not be the norm. So that's why I'm saying get to a point where you have to stop the cycle. So I don't think it's her fault, you know, and I got to come to terms with that and figure out how am I going to have that conversation because we're on a race against time. You know what I'm saying? And the love is there immensely. I still take care

of her financially, whatever it is, but I don't... It's having that conversation when it just becomes so toxic and I was like, do I want that in my environment right now? Did y'all have that conversation or never? It's hard. It's hard to get past it.

And I could say, let me get a counselor in to sit and have with me. You talk about old school Jamaican. Talk to them white men about my problem. Them white men are coming to come tell me me, man. Y'all are. Were you a good child, though? Were you a kid that listened and did the right things? Or did your mom have to put pain on you to make sure that you were straight? My mother said something to me a while back.

She was talking about, she was keeping another child at the time, which was a cousin of ours. And she's been in the whole Jameel country. She said, y'all are idiots. She's cussing the girl, calling the child a kind of name.

She's like, she's not like you. You never get no trouble. I'm like, okay, if I was that good of a child, what was all of my ass whooping for? Because hurt people hurt people. You know what I mean?

And then I ask her, I'm saying, so what was it? And then she says, I never hit you. Never. To get amnesia. You know what I mean?

But that's also their own defense. And I mean, and like you said, it does hurt because I still am emotionally battered by these things. But there are also lessons as you go along in life, and it certainly makes you a better person and makes you be aware of your circle and your surroundings and how you deal with people. And there's things, you know, my manager recently sent me. We just did a deal uh for this new album um overseas and my manager sent me uh a chain of emails from different

presidents of all the companies and all the email i'm reading you know it's from these guys you know when you're saying oh yeah shaggy just signed we're gonna go we need you to jump on board on this and they're like ah i met shaggy years ago when he was doing Boombastic, and he was so gracious to me, I was just a promotion guy, now he's the head of the company. And I'm reading all of these, and I'm looking at all of them, some of them taking the weekend off to try and make the deal happen, to do everything. And I said to my wife, my mom used to say to me, she said, Shaggy, it's how you treat people, and it pays you, it pays forward. Now Shaggy, it's how you treat people and it pays you, pays forward.

Now, Shaggy, can I ask you about your thoughts on marriage? You think that earlier in your career, did you feel like marriage is something that could hurt people's perceptions of you? Because I know a lot of artists feel like, OK, I have to seem like I'm. Well, I've only been married five years, you know, but I've been in relationships longer. You know, people came to me like, I had a publicist one time. I was a hotshot, top of the game. But I wouldn't get any front covers. You know, I'm a reggae act, you know, so we did something epic.

I'm the guy that started it. I'm the guy that kicked the door open. I'm the guy that, you know, diamond, hello, you know what I mean? So I'm not getting any front covers, you know what I mean? I see the source. I get a little inside page. Vibe didn't give me the cover, you know what I mean? I see the source, I get a little inside page. Vibe didn't give me the cover, you know what I mean? So I went in at the publicist.

Don't be humble, Shaq. You sold 10 million records, dude. 10 million records, right. Come on now. Yeah, but I went in on the publicist. I'm like, yo, how come I ain't getting no damn front cover? She says, you're f***ing boring. I said, what the f*** do you mean I'm boring?

She says, you're f***ing... Listen, you know, we got Bobby. Bobby Brown was on MC at the time. We got Bobby Brown. He makes the cover, do you mean I'm boring? She said, listen, you know, we got Bobby. Bobby Brown was on MC at the time. We got Bobby Brown. He makes a cover. You know what I'm saying? And she started calling a bunch of people who were... That didn't sell as many records as you.

Well, Bobby sold records. Let's give it up to Bobby. But people who, at the time, probably... Had a lot more going on. They were more controversial. She says, you know, you're sitting out there taking a picture of Jennifer. You should be f***ing Jennifer. Then you get the cover. This is the conversation.

Jennifer who? Lopez? Yeah. I think I've taken some picture with J-Lo or whatever. I mean, you know, it's not a bad thing. Stop. Alright, shout out to Shaggy's new album, Wagwan, is out now. When we come back, rumors don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. All right. Shout out to Shaggy's new album, Wagwan is out now.

When we come back, rumors don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Still a classic record. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Have you learned to properly surfboard yet? Surfboard. Why are you talking to Envy like that? I was not talking. Yes, you were.

You know what? Leave him alone. This is awkward, yeah. Leave him alone. This is really uncomfortable, bro. This has to stop. All right. All right, well, that's you.

That's you. Have you learned to properly surfboard? I was just talking. We've seen you sitting on Wendy Williams' lap. Have you learned to surfboard? That was before surfboarding, okay? That was flatboarding. You do know that ironing boarding.

I was ironing. You do know. I don't even was ironing The ironing board You do know You do I don't even know What I was about to say You do know You do know It's Monday Leave me alone

You do know It's Monday Leave me alone Oh my goodness Oh and I just want to say I went to go see a play Frankie and Johnny Over the weekend

I took my mom Have you guys ever seen that movie? No No I haven't Oh well it's basically Based on a relationship between a waitress and a cook at a restaurant. They have, like, one night together,

and the whole play takes place during this one night. The funny conversation they have is you get to know somebody and all of the baggage that they have with them. It was really good. You'll like it because it's very conversation-based. I went to a play Saturday, too. I went to see my dear's farewell tour, Tyler Perry.

Oh, yes, that was at Radio City. How was that? I mean, I thought it was incredible. I mean, I enjoyed the stage plays more than the movies just because theater is a hard thing to do. It is difficult. There's no take two. You gotta just go with it. Tyler makes it look too easy. It's like Steph Curry

shooting a jump shot. He's talking to people in the crowd and then going right back to the show. It was a very fun experience. Dope. I enjoyed it. I really got to take my mom to go see that Temptations play. I'm working on that next.

Oh, I'm definitely doing that. It's hard to get those tickets, though. That ain't too proud. Oh, really? Yeah, I bought them already. I bought them for my parents and my mother for Mother's Day. You know what?

I'm just picking a date. You know what? What? It probably would be easy for me to get it if I was trying to buy them. Oh, you're trying to get them for free? Yep.

Oh, my gosh. That's what I need to do. You're right. I didn't even think to get if I was trying to buy them. Oh, you're trying to get them for free? Yep. Oh, my gosh. That's what I need to do. You're right. Yeah, absolutely. I didn't even think of that. I was like, I bought them. It was no problem. I got great seats and everything.

I didn't even think of that. How about you go online and use your little credit card? Absolutely right. Yeah, absolutely right. Buy those damn tickets. Yeah, by goodness gracious. Get my spoiled ass go. That's right.

Yeah, absolutely right. I was like, I got to buy a pair of tickets, good seats and everything. A little expensive, but I know. But I just want to put that out there. That's a great present to give somebody, a family member, somebody you love, your significant other. Take them to a play because I don't think people do that enough like they should be. Because Tina Turner has her play coming and I'm really, really super excited for that one. Yeah, my mom was super excited about those. All right.

Anyway, let's get into. You should go, Envy. Maybe I will. Maybe I'll take out... You'll enjoy it. I'll take the wife, yeah. Well, let's get into the rumors. What are we talking about in the rumors next?

Let's talk about fake penises. Find out who used a fake penis and what you used. Damn, Envy. You gave her permission to do this story? You got a fake penis? Wait, what is going on? Come on, y'all two got to stop. This makes me uncomfortable.

He's being kinky with me. I'm minding my business. I didn't say nothing about you. Yes, you just did. Just for the record, I'm uncomfortable. Me too. Rumors next. Listen up.

It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report.

The Breakfast Club. Man, I can't wait to read Lamar Odom's book, Darkness to Light. Now, they have excerpts that have been being passed around on all the blogs. And he talks about having to use a prosthetic penis, a fake penis, in order to pass a drug test. That's because he made the 2004 Men's Olympic Basketball team. He said it was one of the biggest honors of his career. But then he found out that he was going to have to pass a drug test before officially joining that team. He said it was one of the biggest honors of his career, but then he found out that he was going to have to pass a drug test before officially

joining that team. He knew he wasn't going to pass. He said he had been smoking all summer, smoking weed, so he had to figure out how can I pass this test. Well, he was like, he started Googling fake penises and studying different ways to beat a drug test. After an exhaustive search, we ordered a giant

rubber black rooster to arrive a drug test. After an exhaustive search, we ordered a giant rubber black rooster to arrive the next day. They said the official tester arrived at his house to administer the test, and that's when he... You can't say that. I didn't say it. You almost did.

He had his drug-free trainer urinate into the reservoir of the fake penis, which was then, you know, he put on the rubber penis, strapped it on. And you know, the NBA security official watches you pee from two feet away. They stand behind you while you pee to make sure that you're really doing this yourself.

He said, I unzipped my pants and carefully slid the fake penis through the zipper hole to get the pee to come out of the tip. I had to squeeze the shaft to repeat. Why are you talking like that? See what you can turn on? It's so crazy. What the shaft to repeat. Why are you talking like that? What are you getting turned on? What's wrong with you?

Why are you talking like that? Oh my gosh. How is this sexual? I'm just trying to get visual here. You're a kinky guy. Now he was paranoid that it wouldn't work, but it did. He said they actually had to stick a thermometer in the cup to actually gauge the temperature and they did feel like the pee

was his, so they told him, welcome to Team USA. That's all too much. I mean, I respect the fact that he went above and beyond to get on the Olympic team, but how about just not do drugs? Well, I guess he didn't know, and it was too late. There was nothing he could do about it when they told him. He said it was a surprise. Plus, he was an addict.

Ain't no devil's claw, cat's claw. So it's easy to say, just don't use drugs, but... And they said, well, marijuana stays in your system how long? A long time. It depends. If you go get you some... Back in the day, it was Golden Seal. You had Devil's Claw. You Just don't use drugs. And they say, well, marijuana stays in your system how long? A long time. If you go get you some, back in the day, it was golden seal. You had devil's claw. You had cat's claw. I'm sure nowadays they got things that can clean it out even faster.

But imagine you could use that big prosthetic penis just for other things. Y'all don't mean to like that. Look at his lips. There's plenty of lesbians that do that all the time. Yeah, but I'm just talking about, like, let's just say for women out there, your man doesn't have the biggest penis. All right, yeah. If you're going to do that, you might as well just be a lesbian.

No. Seriously. Might as well not. If you're with a man and you're bringing prosthetic penises in, you might as well be with a woman. That could be fun. Nope. Let's get a woman with a scrap on. All right, now, let's talk about Khloe Kardashian because she's not dating anymore right now.

She said she has no interest, but she does want to get married. She was on Laura Wasser's podcast, Divorce Sucks, and this is what she said. Would you ever consider getting married again? Yes. Anyone on the horizon right now? No. I'm so in love with True and being with her and enjoying every minute. I'm working. I'm working on myself, mind, body, soul. But my focus right now is True. I don't feel a sense of urgency to be in a relationship or even to go on a date. Right. I don't want to. Don't you have a date to get married on?

Yeah, so maybe she's not even ready for that. I thought it was a process. Or you could just have an arranged marriage. There's no dating involved with that. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. Alright, thank you Miss Yee. Now, Charlamagne, who you giving that donkey to? Before after the hour, we need to have a conversation to all the ride-or-die chicks out there.

You know what I'm saying? All you ride-or-die chicks. I need a ride-or-die. I'd make it very clear. This one is for you, because I think that y'all forget that in the ride-or-die equation, sometimes you have to really die to prove your loyalty. I'm not the one. All right, we'll get into that next.

Keep it locked. This is 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. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.

Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. 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 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. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

Donkeys of the Day, ask John the Mayor. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one.

Yes, Donkey of the Day for Monday, May 20th goes to a Fayetteville woman named Maxine Feldstein. Maxine is 30 years old, and she is what you would call a ride-or-die chick, all right? The problem with that term, ride-or-die chick, is because the riding is pretty easy. Riding with someone is cool, right? Oh, yeah, we love riding. Yeah, you're just along for the ride with your man, regardless of where you two are going. But the problem with the whole ride-or-die concept is some people really be expecting you to die. All right?

Personally, that's too much to ask of someone you're in a relationship with. You shouldn't have to die to show your loyalty or express your love for someone. But it is a lot of women out here who are willing to do just that. Seriously, all you ladies who call yourselves ride or die chicks, please remember words matter and ask yourself, are you really willing to die for your little boyfriend? Not over here. All right? You do know what death is, right?

Okay, sometimes you have to ask these questions because people just be throwing that D word around like it's nothing. All right? Ride or die. Okay, I'll die about mine. Well, what's the definition of death? Let's look it up. The dictionary says death is the action or fact of dying or being killed,

the end of the life of a person or organism. End of a life. Is that permanent? Yes. Period at the end of that sentence. Okay? Why do I have to do all that? Why can't I just go along for the ride without the dying part?

Well, Maxine luckily is still alive, but a part of her has died. Let me give you a little back story. Maxine has a little boyfriend named Nicholas Lowe. Now, Nicholas is in jail. I'm not sure how much time he's doing, but he was serving time in the Arkansas Department of Correction. Now, when you're locked up, it's a lot of weird requests you may ask of your girlfriend. Most of the time they involve her sneaking something into the jail for you or, you know, getting you some sexually explicit pictures. I don't know.

I haven't been in jail in a long time. I don't know what inmates are requesting from their women. But I do know asking your woman to help you escape from jail is asking a little too much. I don't really care about you. If I'm asking you to do something that's going to land you in the same position that I'm currently in, well, that's what happens when you are a what? Ride or die. All right?

The die part leads to situations like this. Maxine is now in prison, ladies and gentlemen. Let's go to KFSM CBS for the report, please. It's a fateful woman given 15 years in prison for posing as a California sheriff's deputy in order to spring her boyfriend from jail. 30-year-old Maxine Feldstein pled guilty in court today to forgery, third-degree escape, second-degree criminal impersonation. Feldstein presented false paperwork to the Washington County Detention Center in July,

which fooled the jailers into releasing her boyfriend, Nicholas Lowe. Hare was arrested about a month later in Fayetteville last year. A judge sentenced Feldstein to 30 years in prison, but suspended half of that sentence. Lowe pled guilty in February, was given a one-year prison term, and a five-year suspended sentence once he is released. Nothing honorable about this. I don't respect it. Maxine is doing 15 years in prison because she posed as a California sheriff deputy

in order to break her man out of jail. Now, what I need to know is how much time did Nicholas have prior? Because Nicholas pled guilty to third-degree escape and was given one year in prison, but credit for 167 days served and must abide by a five-year suspended sentence after he's released from the Arkansas Department of Corrections. See, this lets me know maybe this Nicholas dude didn't have a long prison sentence, okay? If you can

pull up to a jail and pretend to be a deputy and tell the sheriff's office they're having issues with overcrowding and all low-priority extraditions have been suspended and they let him go, that lets me know... What'd I say? I said something wrong? Extradition. Whatever. Y'all know what I meant. been suspended and they let him go. That lets me know what I say. I said something wrong? Extradition. Whatever.

Y'all know what I meant. And they let him go. That lets me know that Nicholas couldn't have been sentenced to much time. Okay? And if they are releasing him in another 100 plus days and putting him on a five-year suspended sentence, that means he didn't have a lot of time to begin with. Meanwhile, Maxine is doing 15 years for being ride or die. Maxine, do you think Nicholas is going to die for you?

No. Nicholas is going to get out and find someone new to ride with. He's only 23 years old. Meanwhile, you will be in jail trying not to die. Nicholas is 23. And the day you got sentenced to 15 years is the day U2's ride was over and your relationship died. Ride or die means you're always there for each other

in the good times and the bad. But if a person is dead because of something the other person did, that's not an even exchange. Okay? If one person is in jail because of something else the other person did, that is not an even exchange.

Okay? A relationship should be this simple. I'll ride with you through the BS, but just don't BS me. Maxine, I don't know if you know or not, but Nicholas BS'd you, alright? You, Nicholas, gonna be out here in these streets in a few months riding with somebody else, living

his best life like it's golden. Meanwhile, Maxine gonna spend all her 30s and half her 40s in prison praying not to die. Some donkey of the days just sell themselves. Please give Maxine Feldstein the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.

Yee-haw. All right. Can we agree that it's amazing that that worked, though? Like, that he actually... That's what I'm saying. That's amazing. Can't convince me that was worth it, though. It's not worth it, but I can't believe that they pulled that off.

You'll see when Nicholas don't visit. All right. You'll see when Nicholas ain't sending letters. You'll see when Nicholas stops pressing 5 when you call. Let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Ladies, what's the craziest thing you've done for your man?

All right? What's the craziest thing you've done for your man? When we come back, I want to hear from you, Yee. I want to know what's the craziest thing you've done for your man and you, Charlotte, too.

What's the craziest thing you've done for your man? I want to hear from all the ride-or-die chicks. All the chicks that died, call up right now. All right. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now, if you just joined us, Charlamagne gave donkey today to who? I gave donkey today to a young lady named Maxine. What is Maxine's last name?

Maxine Feldstein. She's 30 years old, and she got sentenced to 15 years in prison because she helped her boyfriend escape out of jail. Ride or die, chick. She was impersonating a police officer. Right. So I want to know the craziest thing you've done for your man. Let's start off with you, Yee.

What's the craziest thing you've done for your man? Well, you know I ain't no dying chick. We know that. So the craziest thing I ever did, I dated this guy. I was about 20 years old, and he got arrested. And he did have a warrant, which I didn't know. So he whispered a fake name to me to give to the cops. And so we go to the police station.

They asked me his name. They wanted me to verify, I guess, you know, his name. I gave the name, and it was a fake name. And then his mother screams out, that is not his name. He's lying. I'm tired of this ish. You could have got arrested for that, Ye. I could have, but I fortunately did not.

My goodness. And thank God. And that's the last time I'll do something like that. What's the craziest thing you did for your man, Evie? I was going to ask you, what's the craziest thing you did for your man, bro? I have done nothing crazy for my man because I don't have a man. I'm sorry to hear that. We'll hook you up.

I'm single. You're single? I thought you was married. I am. I don't have a man. I'm sorry to hear that. We'll hook you up. I'm single. You're single? I thought you was married. I am. I don't have a man, though. Oh, okay. I have done nothing crazy for my wife because my wife doesn't do crazy stuff,

and I have never asked my wife to do anything crazy because I love my wife. Yeah, I think in a real relationship, you shouldn't have to do nothing crazy for that. I wouldn't put my woman in a position to be in a worse position. I don't want to see my woman in jail. I don't want to see my woman dead.. I don't want to see my woman dead.

Like, there's just certain things I'm not going to ask of somebody I care about. Correct. Because I was thinking about it. I haven't asked my wife. I think the craziest thing my wife has done, I know she's popped a pimple on my butt, which is crazy. And I think marrying me is pretty crazy.

Yeah, we agree with that. If you see now, I look when I was 15, 16 years old. Braces, yes, it was a pimple. Braces, glasses, 5'2". Yeah, she married old. Braces, yes, it was a pimple. Braces, glasses, five foot two. Yeah, she married me. She's a princess who kissed a frog. Right. So you think he looks good now? He's a prince. He's a prince. Prince Envy.

He's transitioning. He's still transitioning between amphibian and human. I can still see his gills. Hello, who's this? Is that a fish? A frog. Kim. Yes. Hey, who's this? Is that a fish? All right, frog. Kim. Yes.

Hey, good morning, Kim. Good morning. What's the craziest thing you did for your man? Took him back. Yep. We all crazy, girl. You regret taking him back? What'd he do, mama?

Just, oh, everything. Everything not right. Just everything not right. So why'd you take him back? Because he was sweet. Are you still with him? Hell no. Just everything not right. So why'd you take him back? Because he was sweet. Are you still with him? Hell no. Okay, just checking.

Layla. Hello? Hey, what's the craziest thing you did for your man? I was a getaway driver. Oh, my God. What? What happened? What'd he do?

He beat up some guy, and then he told me, get a car, baby. Come around the corner. So I seen a cab driver get out his cab. So I took the cab, and I just started dropping and picked him up, and we was out. You stole a cab, and then you was, how much time did you get? This is too much. I didn't get no car. We was out.

I want to report a crime. Have y'all done more jobs since then? No, we're not together no more. But, you know, you only live once, YOLO. Well, you got to.

It's a civil duty. All right. Who needs some time shaved off? I just did some racking for you. It's a civic duty.

It's a civic duty. Yeah. 6'9". I beat you to it. 800-585-1051. I got there before you did. You stupid. Ladies, what's the craziest thing you've done for your man?

Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angelique. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're asking 800-5851-051.

What's the craziest things you've done for your man? And we have Missy on the line. Missy, good morning. Good morning. Yee-ow, yee-ow. Oh, my God, that was awful. What's going on, Breakfast Club? She just ignored you.

I know she did. What's the craziest thing you've done for your man? Oh, man, the craziest thing I've ever done. I had my husband call me one time, like God bless his soul before he passed away. Uh, he called me once and was like, Hey, I need you to come. The cops have got me pulled over. So I was fricking scared. I didn't know what to do. So I had to like pretend to pass out and crash into the back of the police so that they could stop from investigating him and tend to me because he had

so much stuff in the car they had medics and everything coming to me and just like was telling him like sir go ahead drive off they was trying to figure out what happened to me that's the scariest thing when I say ride or die you a ride or die that's my husband that's what you're. When I say ride or die. Oh, you a ride or die.

Yeah, that's my husband. That's what you're supposed to do. So where he at now? He dead. Unfortunately, he passed away. He was killed three years ago by a classmate of his. But, I mean, I have my stories and I have my memories. We and his family, we talk about all kind of crazy stuff. But I was like, this morning

that's my phone call right there. I'm a real ride or die. You didn't do the dying in this situation. No. No, I'm glad that I didn't. I felt like I was Charlamagne. I felt like I was having a heart attack, but I was so afraid because I was young too. So I was like,

man. Let me ask you a question, Queen. If you had to talk to these girls, these young girls now, would you encourage them to you a question, Queen. If you had to talk to these girls, these young girls now, would you encourage them to be a ride-or-die chick? Seriously. I mean, these young girls, the definition of ride-or-die to these people are just sticking around. We old school.

Our definition is through good and bad, ups and downs, no matter what. They not going to do that. I mean, I don't mean to be funny. These new generation, all they care about is lace fronts and McDonald's. Lace fronts and McDonald's. We have us real ride or die. We do physical business. We do phone calls.

We write letters. I mean, if you not really going to be there through the day, then you don't even really need to be there because that's what a ride or die is. If you got $5 and I got $10, yeah, I'm your rider. I'm going to give you my half so you have $10 and I got $5 because I know you're going to make a way for us. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that ride or die, they don't understand what it is.

They just want to ride around and die later. They don't know the difference. We overfeed. Thank you, mama. We're talking to the young girls. No, I don't want nobody dying on behalf of me. I would never want my woman to die on behalf of me. I own food. Thank you, Mama. We're talking to the young girls. No, I don't want nobody dying on behalf of me. I would never want my woman to die on behalf of me. I'm sorry.

Mikayla. Hey. What's up? What's the craziest thing you did for your boyfriend, Mama? So he had gotten in a severe motorcycle accident, and he was in ICU. So after he got out, you know, we were in the hospital or whatever. He was like, show me your boobs. I'm like, all right. So I did that, and then it turned in can I get a bj I'm like well you did

just kind of survive death so you know with a shared room and well you know you know and I did what I did and we had fun it was crazy there was somebody in the room next to us but that's the craziest thing i think is there a video of this online somewhere no there is no video okay so you gave a bj in the hospital that's pretty that's pretty cool though that was nice of you thank you mom i wouldn't consider that ride or die nikki yes now what's the crazy thing you did for your boyfriend or husband? Okay, I did this for my husband and I know it's bad, but he had to take his, I took all of his nursing tests for him.

Oh gosh. So now he don't even know what he's doing in his nurse. He has no clue what he's doing. Oh, I don't know about this one. He done killed six people. No, he you have to take your boards by yourself. I mean, I helped him with that too, but I actually took the, my gosh. For him.

And the funny thing is, you just need to, you know, know basics in order to. Oh, goodness. So there's some inexperienced nurse running around. He don't know how to take blood or nothing. He's just not a good test taker. And I. Oh, my God. Does he know how to do blood pressure or anything?

Oh, no. He knows all that stuff. It's just so when it's written on a test format, he doesn he know how to do blood pressure or anything? Oh, no. He knows all that stuff. It's just that when it's written on a test format, he doesn't know how to do it. Where you calling from? I'm going to be honest with you. I don't mind this either. Are you kidding me? This is not ride or die to me.

This is not ride or die taking a test. I respect it. Like, this is just riding. This is dangerous. I'm all for riding. I don't even know where he works. I'm just saying ride for me. You don't got to die for me. I'm not going to where he works. I'm just saying ride for me. You don't got to die for me.

I'm not going to say my name. Smart young lady. Something illegal. What you do? You heard about us snitching this morning, huh? What you do, mama? Getting people jammed up. Well, I helped my now husband break down pounds of weed.

Break down what? Pounds of weed? Pounds of weed. Okay. Weed is legal now, so. Yeah, but back in the day, I don't know. Not in my state, it's not. Yeah, I've seen that happen before. I don't think there's anything wrong with that, but I wouldn't put my woman in that

position. You know what I'm saying? Only because I know that that can land her in the penitentiary. Well, thank you, Mama Latasha. She's working at the Taj Mahal. Hey, that's messed up. We just hung up on her. She probably thought that was the ride or die experience of her life. Latasha, you went to jail with your man for what?

Gun charges. How long was you in jail? He made sure I got right out. Oh, why? Because he took the charge? He said his guns was his? You know, he wanted to make sure I had my bond money. Why did y'all go to jail together?

Why he just didn't take the whole charge from the beginning? Because when he came, I told him that they were like, who it's for? And I was like, I don't know, which I knew the whole time. But I was riding for my man at that time. We was young. Oh, so hold on. He wasn't at home when they came or in the car or whatever. We was there.

We was there. I just rode with him. How much time did you have to do? No. I didn't have to do no time. He gave me the money to burn right out. Now, he wasn't supposed to let you go to jail to begin with. He was supposed to say right then and there,

these are all my guns. She ain't got nothing to do with it. But we were kids. Right. He was scared. We were kids. We were young. Y'all still together now?

Yes, we are. We married. Go ahead, then. Plus, if he had some previous charges, he might have been locked up for real. Maybe she had a clean record. Yeah, we are. We married. Go ahead, then. Plus, if he had some previous charges, he might have been locked up for real. Maybe she had a clean record. Yeah, I did. Girl, what you know about that?

I don't know. I be watching movies. Ye ain't taking no charge, though. Ye is not taking a charge. Well, congratulations. You didn't have to die. I might do it if I had a clean record and it's not that big a deal. You wasn't doing that.

You're not doing it at all. But what her clean record got to do with him, though? Because he knew she wasn't going to get locked up, but if he had any type of priors, he was going to get locked up. Oh, so she did take the charge. Oh, she took the whole charge. She took the charge. Yeah, but she says he had bonded her out.

Okay, I get it. All right, what's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is ride for me, but you don't got to necessarily die for me, okay? If a man is asking you to die for him based off some BS, he don't really care about you ladies. Sorry. Alright. Well, you got rumors on the way? Yes. This hurt my heart because

she's from Brooklyn, but we'll talk about a rapper who just got booed off the stage. Alright, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Foxy Brown. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. On The Breakfast Club. Well, Candy Bears is welcome to the dungeon tour. The dungeon tour was in New York City this weekend, and Foxy Brown was a special guest. And I guess she couldn't hear the track playing, and here's how it sounded.

I got your hands to rock, did you hear? I got your hands to rock. And then I hear, so now I got your hands to rock. Yeah, things didn't go so well. They said the DJ then jumped in and started to play a little Kim song as the crowd went crazy. I don't like that. I'm going to tell you why. Because if something is truly wrong with Foxy's hearing,

which they have been saying for years, why they don't get that sister a hearing aid? Like, stop dragging Foxy on things. I think they tried. I think they definitely tried. But what they should have did, they should have played the music with her rapping on it and her rap over it. Has she ever acknowledged that she can't hear? Yeah.

She has? Yes. Yeah, she said it. Oh, okay. All right, so here's what Kandi Burris had to say about the whole situation. I gotta respect my girl. Let her take the mask off. And I gotta respect my girl.

Because she can't hear. Labor said Jay-Z allegedly paid for surgery to try to help her get her hearing back. Yeah. I just think they should stop bringing Foxy on stage if they know that she's in that condition. You know what I mean? Like, don't do that to her. Well, maybe she wanted to get on stage. Maybe she said she's okay,

and then maybe something happened with the audio. I mean, she's been taking bookings and everything. Yeah, she's been doing shows. You know, if that's what she wants to try to do. Well, let her lip sync then. That's what I said. Yeah. But they got to figure out some type of resolution.

All right, now let's talk about the BET Award nominations. They are in. And let's talk about who was nominated. Cardi B has the most. She has seven nominations. Drake has five. Beyonce, Travis Scott, and J. Cole have four each. And Bruno Mars, 21 Savage, Childish Gambino, her and Ella Mai got multiple nominations as well.

The show will be airing on Sunday, June 23rd. Best Female R&B Pop Artist, Beyonce, Ella Mai, Her, Salon, SZA, or Tiana Taylor. Best male R&B pop artist, Anderson.Paak, Bruno Mars, Childish Gambino, Chris Brown, John Legend, and Khalid. See, I don't understand the pop thing. The pop thing throws me off. Like, what does that mean? I mean, pop is just short for popular, but why? Right, they're hip-hop and pop artists.

I mean, R&B and pop artists. So you hear them as both. And what year? Because R&B is so pop. This year. This past year. Now, best male hip-hop artists, 21 Savage, Drake, J. Cole, Meek Mill, Nipsey Hussle, or Travis Scott. And best female hip-hop artists.

This was a good category this year, by the way, for the females. Cardi B, Cash Doll, Lizzo, Megan Thee Stallion, Nicki Minaj, and Remy Ma. I mean, you would have to give it to Cardi if it's based off last year. But it's still some great female hip-hop artists in that category. Drop on the goosebumps for Cash Doll. Here's what Cash Doll had to say when she found out she was nominated. I just want to say that I'm so freaking happy I'm nominated. Oh my God, like I haven't even dropped

that album yet and I'm happy to just even to be acknowledged. Yeah, drop on the clothes bonds for Meg Thee Stallion. Yes, her album is out right now and she's an incredible artist. I love the way she raps. She's having a great year. She was talking about how she writes all her own stuff because people were trying to accuse her but Juicy J wrote a hook for the song,

and then people were trying to say she didn't write it, da-da-da-da-da. Yeah, I can't. I was working out the fever yesterday. It was a reference track. Huh? So I was working out the fever yesterday. Listen, her album's amazing, and she's a great artist.

She's a dope artist. Her mom used to be a rapper. I really enjoy it. So she's been rapping since she's young. I enjoy Simon Says, and I enjoy that song with the baby, Cash. Oh. Yes. So shout out to Megan Thee Stallion.

Her mom was a rapper? Yeah, her mom used to be a rapper. Really? Yeah. Have we reached the era of second generation? Yeah, yeah, second generation rappers, absolutely. And then Lizzo is amazing, too. I mean, all the people that were nominated for the women, as far as that category, you

know, they're all pretty phenomenal. So I think that's dope. Best male category is interesting, too, because I always say that, you know, last year Nipsey Hussle, Victory Lap was the best rap album of last year. But when you look at what Meek did as a human, you know what I'm saying? You take all that into consideration.

Yeah, all that got to be taken into consideration. The reason why I like the women's category, though, is do you remember years when there would only be like three people nominated? Yes. Because there just wasn't enough, and now it's like we're overflowing. It was Nicki Minaj, Master P daughter, Symphony. Symphony, yes. Who else used to be in that category

all the time? Remy Ma was in there when she got out. When she got out, Remy was in there all the time. Yeah. Alright, now Blac Chyna has made up with her mom. You remember when she was on The Breakfast Club and we asked her about it? Mm-hmm. What's your relationship like with your mom now?

You know, I feel like family, like, goes through stuff all the time or whatever, and it's just something that we have to rekindle and get through it. So is your mom going to be on the show at all? Are we going to see you rekindle with your mom? Yeah, for sure. That's what I'm hoping for and wishing for right now.

You know, that's why when I talk to Wendy, I'm like, sometimes a lot of people keep putting her in the media, and she's not a celebrity, so she can't take what certain celebrities can take. So they actually had a reunion in Atlanta at the Sparkle skating ring, and there's pictures of them hugging, and

they even posted videos, so that's really dope. Now, Kodak Black. Feds are saying that there's a gun with his fingerprints on it and a Porsche rental that was linked to him all having to do with the shooting that happened in March. According to prosecutors, they're trying to say that Kodak bought three weapons and more than 100 rounds of ammo back in February. They said that purchase was because he lied on a gun application,

so he was able to purchase those items. They said on March 7th, he rolled up in the Porsche Panamera that he rented and drove to the Golden Acres neighborhood in Pompano Beach, where he grew up and started firing. Now, according to prosecutors, they said they found the Porsche abandoned 14 miles from the scene of the crime and heavily damaged. And they said multiple witnesses saw Kodak at the scene of the shooting. He has not been charged with any crime and that investigation is continuing. But according to Kodak's attorney, they said that he has

yet to see any type of reports that show his fingerprints on the gun. And he did add that witnesses came forward to us as well and stated they did not see Kodak Black at the scene that night. Yeah, they didn't see him at the scene, but they got the fingerprints on the gun, though. Well, the lawyer said he hasn't seen anything about that yet. So we shall see.

All right. All right. I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Ye Alright. Alright, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Reports. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee.

I would say they go for about double the money right now. I'd say maybe close to $1,000. That's a little too Yeezy for always sending me Yeezys. What size are those? This is an 11 and a half. Yeah, say about maybe close to a thousand. That's a little too easy for always sending me Yeezys. What size are those? This is an eleven and a half. Yeah, you get some good money for them. Those look a little orthopedic. You gonna sell them? I don't know yet. I got a lot of sneakers that people be saying is valuable that I don't
