Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show,

After those runs, the conversations keep going.

their journeys, and the thoughts that

DJ Envy,
Anjali Yee,
and Charlamagne Tha God.
Wake that ass up.
The Breastful Club is on.
Right here.
I am Phillip Blass.
I'm talking to the Breakfast Club this morning.
Okay, okay, okay.
I love coming here.
I'm never not going to come here.
You guys are good to me.
In return, I'm always going to be good to y'all.
For a lot of people in the hip-hop generation,
the Breakfast Club is where people get their information
on the topics, on the artists, and everything like that.
In that aspect, radio is still important.
The Breakfast Club.
When my name come on, respect it.
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
You better have the same energy.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up, Evie? It's Dave.
Dave, what's up? Get it off your chest, bro.
All right, I got to make it fast, too, because I'm on break from my job. But basically what I wanted to say is how President Trump, he's branded so like to be a hateful guy that everyone hates him.
But they don't realize that he's actually trying to protect.
I believe that they try to protect us from this COVID.
They're trying to get vaccinated as for like population control.
And I honestly don't think like this COVID is something as big as for the media to train it to be. And people, you know,
they don't realize that.
I believe it's over to get a vaccination
and control population.
I'm going to tell you why I don't believe that. The reason I don't
believe that is because this is an election
year. Donald Trump's crown
jewel was the economy.
I don't think he would tank the economy
for population control.
I think he would want to get a second term first.
No, no, no.
He's trying to protect us.
You guys think, like, Dr. O'Neal, those are the people who are trying to get even more billions off of this corona.
Every two years, we have a virus.
But people don't realize that this virus is actually sick.
And now that it's sticking, they're using it to crash the economy.
And then they're going to come out with this vaccination that they're going to force people.
If you want your kids to go to school, you got to get vaccinated.
And it's going to kill more people.
Like these vaccinations kill like a lot of people.
But people don't know how many people like AIDS.
You know how many AIDS in Africa?
They were actually vaccinated and it gave people AIDS.
And that's what gave more and more people AIDS in Africa.
Listen, why do we act like people don't get
vaccinations every year
for something? Why would they have
to wait for coronavirus? You can get vaccinated for the
flu. Kids got to get shots
before they go back to school.
And vaccinations for flu is
just as bad. That's why I would never
give my kids AIDS.
They could have been implementing
this plan. They didn't have to, you know,
crash the economy and do everything to implement the plan.
They've been doing this plan for like over
10 years, and they're finally sick. They've been doing
this five years back.
That's just what I feel, and I feel like
Trump, when he talks about this
medicine that helps and cures,
it actually does. He don't benefit off of that.
He's actually going back and forth with the higher-ups like Bill Gates and cures, it actually does. He don't benefit off of that. He's actually going back and forth with, you know,
the higher-ups like Bill Gates and Fauci,
and people think that he's trying to throw this medicine out,
but he's actually not just throwing the medicine out.
He's just trying to, like, not let the vaccination kick in.
Well, that's not true either.
I read something where he did have some stake in the hydrochloroquine drug.
Right, and I would rather listen to the doctors than Donald Trump when it comes to what medication
you should and shouldn't take.
Is Bill Gates, let me ask you a question,
is Bill Gates a doctor?
Does he have any medical history?
I listen to Dr. Fauci.
I'm not talking about Bill Gates.
I wasn't even discussing him.
Well, Bill Gates hired Dr. Fauci, you know,
and that's why Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates is a team.
What?
Bill Gates hired Dr. Fauci to work for the government?
I can't. No, he has to work for the government? I can't.
I have to work for the government.
I can't, guys.
I can't.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what up, guys?
This is Nick.
How y'all feeling this morning?
Nick, what up?
Get it off your chest, bro.
All right, so here's what I got from my chest this morning.
We need to quit.
How are we going to talk about racism of a white government
when we ourselves as a black community are racist in saying that everything's about the black community?
There's white people in the ghetto that get treated just as poorly as black people do.
There's brown people in the ghetto getting treated just as poorly as black people do.
I've seen white boys pulled out of their car at gunpoint in the ghetto by the police for nothing, just like a black guy.
The problem is not rich or a white crime or a black crime or white neighborhood, black neighborhood.
The problem is if you don't live in the rich part, you got a problem.
You will be treated poorly.
It doesn't matter about the color of your skin.
It doesn't matter what city you're from.
You're wrong.
Don't you know in which areas black people get treated horribly too?
Exactly.
You know in middle class neighborhoods, black people get treated horribly too?
Exactly.
You know that young man that was just running and just got killed?
That wasn't in the ghetto or poverty-stricken place, sir?
He was running in a middle class area and got murdered?
Yes.
Yeah, it's a... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was running in a middle-class area and got murdered. Yes. Yeah.
It's a...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think that police officers have even admitted that...
We quit being racist when we ourselves are being racist.
We're not being racist.
We tell the truth.
Police officers have even admitted that they were told to stop black people more often.
They even have said that.
They ain't being racist.
This is telling the truth, sir.
And guess what?
You're right.
There is a class issue in America,
but there's absolutely positively racial bias in America, okay?
And just like Envy just said,
when you black, if you're in a rich neighborhood,
if I live in that neighborhood,
the police will still pull me over and profile me.
If I'm in a poor neighborhood,
they'll pull me over and profile me. What are you talking a poor neighborhood, they'll pull me over and profile me.
What are you talking about?
People like Oprah Winfrey have been profiled in stars, okay?
Like, come on, bro.
Knock it off.
What I'm talking about is...
I don't care what you're talking about this morning.
If I got a white neighbor
that was born and raised in the same neighborhood I was,
it don't matter where he goes either.
It don't matter.
It does, man.
Have a good morning.
Have a good morning. Have a good morning.
That is such a lie.
Listen, my first white friend's name is Thomas Evans, okay?
And we grew up on the same dirt road in Mount Squire, South Carolina,
in the same financial conditions.
Guarantee you, if he was driving the car and I was driving the car in a certain area,
it wouldn't bother him.
And guess what?
I would be happy for that because I would use his white privilege like Starbucks Wi-Fi,
God damn it, to get us both out
of there. 800-585-1051.
Get it off your chest.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
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.
So if you got something on your mind, let it out.
Hello, who's this?
Yeah, who's this?
I don't know. Envy has been a minute. It's Mello.
Mello, what's up, bro?
Yo, man, I'm chilling.
This quarantine is killing me,
but I'm not going out of social distancing.
It's definitely necessary, for real.
Mm-hmm.
What's been going on, man?
What about your best friend, iPhone, man?
Yo, iPhone, yo, he's been doing his thing.
Like I said, we've just been perfecting the craft
during this time.
This is just a pause on everyday life.
You get time to just manifest everything you want to accomplish.
And it's been great.
It's been treating me great.
It's been treating me a lot better than Charlemagne Hill on, I can tell you that.
Melo, let me ask you a question.
What craft are y'all perfecting?
Scamming?
Um, listen.
I'm not going to say what we do over the radio.
I know you ain't nothing.
Y'all doing legal as well.
Why are you trying to perfect that craft?
How do you know what we're doing is not legal?
What proof do you have?
Well, we can start with iPhone Sims charging people for shout-outs on the Breakfast Club.
That's one.
That's not illegal.
Where is that illegal?
Okay, you might be right.
That's unethical.
That's a scam, though.
That's a scam.
It's unethical.
It's a scam.
It's just whack.
It's a scam.
It's whack.
It's unethical. I never said it was right. It's not illegal, though. It's a scam. It's just whack. It's just whack. It's a scam. It's whack. It's unethical.
I never said it was right.
It's not illegal, though.
Right.
It's a scam.
It is a scam.
It is illegal because you can't guarantee.
You can't guarantee we're going to shout those people out or you're going to get a chance
to shout those people out.
It ain't our responsibility, though.
And you know how else I know y'all scamming?
Because you won't even tell us what the crap is because you know it's a scam.
No, it's not actually.
Actually, I'm not scamming.
I'm not going to speak on anybody else.
I know I'm not. I'm not scamming. You'm not going to speak on anybody else. I know I'm not.
I'm not scamming. You just snitched on
iPhone. You just snitched on iPhone.
I ain't robbed the bank. All three of us.
I ain't robbed the bank. I ain't going to say who did, but I ain't
robbing. You snitched on them.
I've been a snitch too, man. Who died and made you
69? Don't sit there and put that energy on me.
Who died and made you 69?
I'm going to
use that one, Mello.
Who died in me?
Who died?
Hello, who's this?
Butterfly from Baisley.
Butterfly from Baisley.
What's up, my butterfly?
I miss you. How are you, Andy?
Solomon the God in thee.
Baisley.
What's up, butterfly?
What's up?
You working?
They put you back in that shop?
You working again?
Huh?
Are you working again?
Did they hire you again?
Yes.
Okay.
And I want to get it off my chest.
Go.
Okay.
Now, baby, shout out to him.
I felt sick in the fist.
He lost somebody really close to his heart.
Okay?
I tried to call him.
This is for you.
Where you at? I'm right here. Okay. This for you. I tried to call him. This is for you. Where you at?
I'm right here.
Okay, this for you.
I need to ask you,
how can I talk to him
because I tried to tell him
I lost my money at the job.
I know this is not a good time
to be talking about money,
but please,
I need to look on the camera
and see who got the money.
Somebody stole money or you lost it?
What happened?
I lost it.
I dropped it and somebody picked it up.
How much?
I'm cleaning up a buck and change.
$100?
Even though it's not that much, still in the world.
You need your money.
Thank you.
Because I was trying to buy me some new hair supply stuff
when I catch the lady in the beauty supply.
Let me ask you this, but do people know you lost it?
Because if somebody found money, how are they supposed to know whose money it is?
Good.
Because I told everybody in the store.
And you know what I said to them?
Homeboy came to me.
He said, Butterfly, can I get a dollar?
So I digged in my pocket because I was so sad crying.
He said, no, I'm just playing.
I'm like, oh, you might be the one that got my money.
So Diddy and Starks, man, go on the camera and look who stole Butterfly's $100, man.
Just look who in the camera said who stole that money, man.
She need the money.
Let's see who picked up that money.
She want to get her hair did.
She want to go buy some bundles.
Can you see who stole her money, please?
I don't know why you need bundles, though. I don't know exactly what time she was in there. You ain't got nowhere to go her hair did. She want to go buy some bundles. Can you see who's throwing her money, please? I don't know why you need bundles, though.
You ain't got nowhere to go, Butterfly.
That was on Friday.
Oh, you had somewhere to go?
Yeah.
Well, you got to go, Butterfly.
My castle.
Oh, you want to look good in your house.
You want to look good for yourself.
Well, I ain't got no man, so why not?
True, true.
Nothing wrong with that.
I look good.
You ain't got no man. All right. Take some selfies. Well, thank you't got no man, so why not? True, true. Nothing wrong with that. I look good. I don't have no man.
All right.
Take some selfies.
Well, thank you, Butterfly.
If you don't know, Butterfly works in Queens,
a store called Rochdale's Chicken and Waffles,
some of the best food in Queens.
And Butterfly works there, so shout out to Butterfly.
All right.
Get it off your chest.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a
lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection,
it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're
going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth,
gratitude, and the power
of love. I forgive myself.
It's okay. Like grace. Have
grace with yourself. You're trying your best.
And you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've
never heard her before. Listen to
On Purpose with Jay Shetty on
the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,

a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind
of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of
water, 500 pounds of concrete.

I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country?
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we were talking about
how difficult and how hard it is out there,
but people are getting creative.
People are coming up with all types of ways
to make extra cash.
I was telling you about DJ Will,
who is a DJ here at the station.
Of course, the clubs are closed,
so he can't DJ the clubs like he usually do.
But what he's doing, he's cooking.
He's cooking for the neighborhood.
You can pull up on him.
He got all types of food.
I've seen Caribbean food.
I've seen seafood, soul food, all that.
So shout out to DJ Will.
His Instagram is DJWillNYC if you want to order some food.
But what are you guys doing to make a little extra cash?
I see people making their
own special rum punches and bottling it up for other people to buy, which is nice at a time like
this. People are at home. They might want a little drinky drink. Right. I don't know. I mean,
because, you know, everybody that I've spoken to has, you know, been laid off or been furloughed.
They really haven't, you know, figured out how they are going to eat for the next two or three months.
Like, it really is a dire situation, you know what I mean?
I do hope that they can figure it out, but they haven't.
A lot of people are really waiting on those stimulus checks, you know,
from the Trump administration in order to make ends meet.
So, I don't know.
Some people are dipping into their savings if they have any.
I haven't heard anything yet.
Well, if I would just tell people this, if you are
going through hard times, financial
problems, the first thing to do is instead
of not paying, call. They are
being very, very lenient with people.
If it's a car note, if it's
your telephone bill, if it's your mortgage,
call them and tell them what you're going through.
And they are being very, very lenient
right now. So definitely give them a call. What about student loans?
They're still not paying.
Yes, they have. Alright, well them a little bit of this stuff. What about student loans? Did they send student loans, right?
Yes, they have.
All right, well, let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Freddie P.
Hey, what's up, bro?
What are you doing to make a little extra cash
right around now?
Well, I'm still currently working on a truck,
you know what I mean?
We work seven days a week delivering,
you know what I mean, in Columbus, Ohio.
But I was calling up here to say
that the drug trade was still booming.
But then I heard you say something about you selling your sneakers.
What's up with that?
What you mean?
Let me get some of them sneakers you're selling.
No, I'll only, what it is, is I'm not into stocks.
I just never been.
My mother-in-law lost a lot of money back in the day, so I've never been on it.
So what I do is I take things that I might not be thinking about, like, let's say, a pair of sneakers.
I sell it, and I just put it into the stock market.
Oh, sneakers in the stock market.
No, I thought you were trying to sell it.
No, that's not what he said, sir.
That's not what he said.
I thought he said he was selling his sneakers for $30.
That's what I thought he said, too.
That's what I thought he said.
You got money for sneakers at a time like this, sir?
I just told you I'm working seven days a week. He said he's still working.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
You better hold
on to your money. Ain't nobody can see you in your goddamn
sneakers anyway. That's what I'm saying.
You're in the house.
I don't wear them anywhere. I just put them in the closet.
I work. All right. Thank you, bro.
Hello, who's this?
Shani. Hey, what are you doing to make a little extra money at a time like this?
Well, I coupon.
So the items that I coupon with, I've been selling them off to people, making extra money.
Like my job, they don't have no snacks.
So I've been selling all the snacks that I got from couponing to my coworkers.
That's smart.
So it's been a little bit of a plus in the struggle. That's smart. So it's been a little bit of plus in the struggle.
That's smart.
That makes sense.
That is very smart.
Because people aren't trying to go to the store.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Yeah, because I got Lysol that I've been couponing with,
Clorox that I've been couponing with.
So it's like people don't have these things.
Like even baby wipes.
Some of my coworkers, they needed baby wipes.
I was able to sell them baby wipes.
So it's coming in handy with a little bit of extra
cash, and I'm also helping people that need things.
Right. You just can't charge them too much, though.
You can't? No.
Okay. What about your musty coworkers?
You sell them any deodorant?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Okay. I might not say it,
but I'm going to hint it to you.
All right. Well, thank you so much. You want to get this
little roll on for a quarter? Is there an app where you can just get coupons, I'm sure, right? to you. All right, well, thank you so much. You want to get this little roll on for a quarter?
Is there an app where you can just get coupons?
I'm sure, right?
Online?
I haven't been using coupons.
I mean, Groupon.
They got Groupon, don't they?
There's different sites where they have coupon codes
and things like that.
Like, you know, when you go to the supermarket, though,
and you're like, okay.
Yeah, they have coupon codes.
And if you Google...
Because they don't be having those flyers anymore.
They probably...
Yeah, they still got flyers at BJ's and Costco. Oh know well 800-585-1051 we're asking you know it's tough out

That is the question.
800-585-1051.
Hello, who's this?
It's comedian Tony Fax, man.
I'm from South Florida, man.
Shout out to you, DJ.
Here's to Charlamagne and God.
Angelique, man, I love y'all.
Hey.
What's up, sir?
Oh, you a comedian.
I know you ain't working right now. Hey, no, that's a damn lie, man. Listen, man, Iique, man, I love y'all. Hey. What's up, sir? Oh, you a comedian. I know you ain't working right now.
Hey, no, that's a damn lie, man.
Listen, man, I work pest control.
I have an essential job.
I work pest control during the day.
I dance around working at night.
But listen, I want to tell y'all something.
Anybody that's out there, y'all got a car, you need to either door dash or you need to
Uber Eats.
Well, what's that?
Smart.
What's that thing you can do when you go pick up people's groceries and stuff?
What's that?
It's called being a good Samaritan.
I've been to that.
I said that these kids should be kind of something.
No, he's talking about the app where people go get your groceries for you and get paid for it.
Smart, yeah.
These kids should have been going to these older folks' house and grocery shopping for them.
Yeah, that's smart.
Yeah, he's talking about Instacart.
Because Instacart is actually hiring right now.
No, that's very smart.
And not only for old people, for people that just don't want to leave the house,
are scared to leave the house, you could pay somebody,
hey, go get these groceries.
Yep, give them a couple dollars.
Yeah, that makes sense.
You would have to be very PPE'd up, meaning that, you know,
you would have to have on the gloves, you would have to have on a raincoat,
you'd have to have on a mask.
Like, it'd have to be a lot in order for me to let you go get my groceries.
Right.
But, I mean, these are things where you can make a little extra cash.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, good morning.
Good morning.
That wake and bake.
That kush hitting this morning, huh?
No, I'm over here.
I'm sitting in the car watching
a tiny little dog laughing at something.
We're trying to bark at a grown person, you know?
But, yeah, my first time calling,
I respect what y'all saying out there.
Yo, Charlamagne, I'm down in your hood, man,
but you from South Carolina.
I'm from Brooklyn, New York, though.
Okay.
Don't be taking that goddamn corona down to South Carolina now.
Have you been tested?
Oh, hell yeah.
I get tested for anything, man.
Oh, you lying.
You ain't never got tested for coronavirus in your life.
What do you do to make a little extra bread, though?
That's cool.
Well, right now, I'm using
my last name, which is Blackstock, as my
logo design. I'm also doing logo
design for a lot of different people, especially
for those who got kids, trying
to utilize that in a way
where it educates kids.
I'm also doing
books for kids.
I'm trying to put them online, make
them into little videos, because after my daughter got murdered you know, trying to put them online, make them into little videos.
Because after my daughter got murdered,
I started trying to use that formula, like, you know,
because I was like, all right, kids growing up, you know,
broken homes and all that.
So let me try to correct that.
Well, condolences to you, my brother.
How long has your daughter been gone?
My daughter died. You know, real talk, I was locked up in CT in 2002,
you know,
on Father's Day.
That's when she got murdered.
God damn.
I'm like,
pardon me?
Sorry to hear that.
Yeah,
sorry to hear that, bro.
It's all right.
It's all right.
You know,
I'm not a,
I'm not a,
I'm a better person.
You know what I mean?
But,
you know,
you know,
they say it's always karma.
But anyway,
I tried to open
for after school
when I was in Connecticut.
That didn't work out.
For now, I took my drug money.
Yeah, I used to sell drugs.
Took all my drug money and tried to reinvest that.
You know what I'm saying?
So I'm doing what I'm doing with it now.
Well, salute to you, my brother.
Appreciate you, brother.
I hope that you, you know, continue to grow in this journey called life.
And be safe out there.
Hello, who's this? Hey. Hello, who's this?
Hey. Hey, who's this?
Hey. Hey, this is Marco.
Hey, Marco. Hey, Marco.
Hold up.
What are they doing to make a little extra money, brother?
Me? Gaming.
Gaming's a good one. Okay, there you go.
Nah, gaming is a good one. My son
made a couple hundred dollars
the other day. C, caffeine, YouTube.
Gotta do what you gotta do, man.
Yeah.
Y'all business gotta be booming right now, right?
Yeah, actually, they said the gaming business is amazing right now.
Well, of course, yeah, but they're shutting down GameStop, unfortunately.
Yeah, I read that, too.
But you can get stuff online, too, right?
Yeah, but online, it's not the same as GameStop, you know?
You can't buy the used games, you know?
$40, $20, $30.
It's all 60, so that's, you know, it's a little costly, but hey, I'm doing it.
Why are they shutting down GameStop?
I briefly breezed across that article.
I didn't really dive deep into it.
Why are they shutting it down?
Because they're not making business anyway.
Everything is digital.
Oh, yeah, yeah, okay.
You can buy games.
You don't even have to
leave the house no more.
You can have a subscription.
Right into your thing, yeah.
Well, thank you for calling.
But, you know,
games are making
a lot of business.
I watch my son
and after he finishes school,
he goes and he plays
these tournaments
and he makes a couple hundred dollars
all the time.
So they're making
a lot of money too.
800-585-1051.
We're asking, what are you doing right now to make a little extra cash?
I know times are hard right now.
A lot of people have been laid off and fired.
So what are you doing to make a little extra cash?
Call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
So we were just asking, what are people doing to make a little extra cash?
All right.
You know, a lot of people are being laid off, being fired.
So we're asking, what are you doing to make some cash?
Give somebody some ideas.
Let's go to the phone.
This is a time to get creative when you're at home, too, to be like, okay, what can I figure out that
I can do to make some money? Hello, who's
this? Hey, this is Devin
out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Devin,
what's up, brother? What are you doing to make a little extra bread?
Man, right now, I'm trying to work on
a clothing line and
writing a book. You know, I'm trying not to
let this virus get me lazy, man.
Trying to find some extra income out here.
Don't want people to wait on these stimulus checks.
Let's get this income while it's out here.
Find something that you can do to make yourself useful.
But you know what?
Even I was talking to a plumber, and he was saying the plumbing business and the heating
and AC business has been booming, he said, because people are home.
So they're starting to hear things wrong with their house that they usually wouldn't hear.
Absolutely.
That's why I think trade schools should be free.
Like, people really need to get back into trade school.
You really need to get back into learning how to do things with their hands.
That's immediate money, and that is, you talk about essential jobs?
Those are always essential jobs.
Air conditioning, fixing air conditions in heating units, electricians, plumbers.
Like, we always are going to need them.
Even pest control.
A lot of people say now that they're home so much,
they're starting to see things that they shouldn't be seeing,
whether it's bugs, whether it's mice.
So pest control is doing a lot.
I don't know if you saw the streets in New Orleans.
They're saying for a lot of times the rats would eat the scraps off the food
that people had at the bars and the alleyways.
And now because people aren't out eating anymore,
the rats are trying to find food.
So it's becoming an overrun.
Yeah.
I also want to tell y'all,
brothers and sisters,
I respect y'all wholeheartedly,
but don't act like y'all
didn't see those roaches
before this quarantine.
Okay?
You just was ignoring
them goddamn roaches,
but now that you're home
all day long
and you got some people
in the house with you,
they telling you,
they keep reminding you
that you got them
goddamn roaches.
All right?
So now you're getting them fixed.
All right?
But you saw them roaches beforehand.
My goodness.
Hello.
Who's this?
Brian Michael Jr.
Hey, what's up, bro?
What are you doing to make a little extra bread right now?
What's up, King?
I'm still working.
I'm still working.
But then I have been.
Hey, your phone is a little jacked up.
Oh, okay.
I had it.
I didn't have it to my mouth.
But I'm still working, but
then I have built some wheel lights
for 560 out here.
You say you've been drinking Pedialyte?
No, I've built some wheel lights.
What's wheel lights?
It's for rims for big trucks and
cars and SUVs.
Congratulations.
For some reason, that made me
think of spinners. Remember the spinner rims that people used to have? That reason, that made me think of spinners.
Remember the spinner rooms that people used to have?
That's what that made me think of.
Yeah, it's like that.
But these right here at night, it'll wake people up.
It'll slow down accidents.
I had to learn how to walk in 2007.
So it's beneficial.
So it's like wearing those jackets when you jog in and they kind of light up
so you see people on the road.
That's dope.
Is that illegal, though?
Can you have that on your wheels?
I know sometimes they stop all the extra lights.
You remember 2 Live Crew?
Well, we got to go to court about it.
We got to go to court about it.
I ain't mad at you, brother.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
I think it's a great idea.
So move to the 2 Live Crew, goddammit.
I think it's a great idea. Yeah, it ain't illegal. So, you know what I mean? I think it's a great idea. Salute to the two live crew, goddammit. I think it's a great idea.
Yeah, it ain't illegal, so, you know what I mean, right now, but they might try, but I'm willing to go to court for it if I need to.
Nah, I see a lot of people that put their lights under their cars, and sometimes police pull them over, but I just wonder.
But, yeah, I think that's a great idea.
So, what's the moral of the story, guys?
The moral of the story is, man, you just got to eat.
You just got to figure out how to go get it, you know, by any legal means necessary.
Right.
And I do want to tell people, people ask me, what site should they sell sneakers on?
If you have some old sneakers that look good, you could clean them up.
GOAT sells old sneakers.
You could sell your old sneakers at GOAT.
If they're new, you could go to StockX.
You'll get your money immediately.
Absolutely.
And I want to tell all these kids, man, and not even the kids.
If you know elderly people in your neighborhood, not only are you being a good Samaritan, you can to tell all these kids, man, and not even the kids, if you know elderly people in your neighborhood,
not only are you being a good Samaritan,
you can make a couple dollars, man, just pulling up
on the old folks and asking them if they need
anything, going to the grocery store for them, you know what I'm saying?
Let them give you their little
grocery list. You go to the store, pick up some items,
make a couple dollars. So not only are you being a good
Samaritan, you put a little change in your pocket, too.
I think that's a nice little hustle for right now.
Alright, we got more coming up next
with The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy,
Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest
in the building.
Yes, indeed.
This is her first time here.
Finally.
Meg Thee Stallion.
Come on, give Meg
some round of applause.
That's right.
Get the energy right in here,
God damn it.
A.K.A. Sugar,
A.K.A. Tina Snow
in the building.
Alba's out right now.
Now, let's start.
For people that don't know, how did Meg Thee Stallion start out as a rapper?
How did you get into this rap game?
So, my mom was a rapper.
And, like, every day after school and when she would get off work,
I would see her in her room writing and stuff.
And then she would be, like, going to the studio and I would be in the little waiting room.
And I'm pretty sure she thought I was in there doing, like, little kid stuff.
But I would be, like, listening at the door, like, oh, okay, little waiting room. And I'm pretty sure she thought I was in there doing like little kid stuff, but I'll be like listening at the door like, oh, okay, yeah, yeah.
And I really thought it was normal.
I kind of low-key thought everybody's mama was doing that.
Everybody's mama was rapping.
Yeah, I didn't know.
So like I don't know, it was just normal.
So I would eventually like start stealing her CDs
with like all her instrumentals on there and like start sneaking and writing.
And then she'll be like asking like, have you seen my CDs?
And I'll be like, no.
And then like eventually when I graduated from high school, I was like, I and writing. And then she'll be like asking like, have you seen my CDs? And I'll be like, no. And then like eventually when I graduated from high school,
I was like, I can rap.
And she was like, no, you can't.
And I was like, yeah, I can.
She was like, let me hear you.
So I started rapping and she was like, oh my God.
You can't rap.
Do you remember the first verse you spit for her?
I really don't remember what I was saying,
but I remember I rapped over like the I'm Different beat
by 2 Chainz.
Okay.
And she was like, oh, shit. Like, so then ever since then, like I don't rapped over the I'm Different beat by 2 Chainz. Okay. And she was like,
oh, shit.
So then,
ever since then,
I don't think she still
even took me seriously then.
So I started going to the studio
on my own.
And so when she knew
I was at the studio
by myself and stuff,
she was like,
oh, hell no,
I'm gonna manage you.
And we doing this.
She thought it was raw, too.
I was exactly how I rap now.
I was talking probably
a little more crazy
back then.
She was like,
you ain't living that life.
I was like,
mama, don't be mad. I'm a curse, okay? And she was like, she was talking probably a little more crazy back then. To flirt with your mom? And she said, you ain't living that life. I was like, Mama, don't be mad.
I'm a curse, okay?
And she was like, okay.
I don't think she knew exactly how hard I was about to go.
And she was like, I don't know where your mouth came from.
And only thing my mama ever played for me was like Pimp C, UGK.
Oh, yes, sir.
There you go.
That's what it came from, Mom.
Like, my daddy only played 3-6 Mafia.
So I'm like, I don't understand why y'all not figuring out why I'm talking like this.
I read somewhere that Pimp C's wife
wanted to,
she had vocals for you
that she wanted to do.
Did you ever do that?
I mean,
I got the vocals.
I got vocals from her
and Juicy J.
So,
I mean,
I was working,
I'm still working
on my album.
Like,
I had to hurry up
and put together an EP
of songs that I just
really liked
that I recorded so far.
But stuff like that
I really like to take my time on because I really
look up to Pimp C, so I really
want to do the song right.
How long did it take for you to
I don't want to say pop, but to actually pop?
Because it seems like on the outside world
it seems like it was fast. It seems like it was
a little rumbling and then it was gone.
I feel like I'm still
getting there. I don't feel like I'm just like
I don't feel like I've popped. like, I don't feel like I've, like,
popped. How many platinum singles you got already?
Uh, three.
I mean... No, you got the right attitude.
That's true, but... Because they don't really count
until you put out a debut album. Right.
I feel like I just got a lot more work to do.
Like, I like to work. I like to hustle.
I don't feel like nothing should just be given
to me. Like, I really do want to work for it.
What do you think the shift was? You think it was the Wale song, the pole dancing?
Definitely that was one of the big moments for me.
Everybody know, like, I used to do a lot of cyphers.
That's where stuff started going viral from.
And then Wale was, like, the first, you know, big artist to, like, reach out to me and say,
I want to do a song with Meg.
And my manager at the time called me.
He's like, Wale want to talk to you.
I was like, Wale, Wale?
Like, Wale?
Do you think he was trying to holler at first
or do you think it was about me?
No, like as soon as I met him,
like I met him in the studio
and he just played a bunch of records.
And I heard when he played pole dance,
I was like, oh, duh, like I'm gonna do this one.
So we just been like really close ever since.
Why do you think Pimp C don't get
the proper recognition that he deserves?
I saw somebody post the other day
They said if y'all worried about
If Boosie offended y'all, y'all would have hated Pimp C
Yeah, he's just very southern
And sometimes people from the south
Stick to that old southern way
Like that old southern mentality
And a lot of the times
I feel like just southern rap in general
Doesn't really get the
respect that it deserves. Even now?
I mean, even now.
For the past 25 years at least.
They respect the south now. I feel like
a lot of the times people don't get
it. I hear when I go different
places they're like, oh I like your accent.
But I can't really hear it.
But when you're from someplace different because
people will tell me I have an accent,
and I'm like, I don't have an accent.
Like, if I'm in the South, they'll tell me that.
Definitely you have an accent.
See, and I look at you like, Meg definitely has an accent, too.
I feel like people not used to it.
Like, the way we...
I feel like maybe we talk a little slower.
Like, I don't know.
I just feel like sometimes people don't really catch the music.
Like, of course, like, Juvenile, like Lil Wayne, like...
I don't know. Those are lyricists, though. Yeah, of course, like, Juvenile, like Lil Wayne, like, I don't know.
Lyricists.
Those are lyricists, though.
Yeah.
But I feel like it's still catching on.
Like, it's still growing, so.
You think that sometimes people misjudge, like, looking from the outside with, you know,
Hot Girl and all of that, because I looked at it, and we were trying to have this discussion on just being, like, somebody about your business as a woman that is independent, taking care
of yourself. you go to
school TSU shout out to TSU shout out because they're so proud of you but sometimes people
think that means you just out here hoeing and thotting and they think that's what it is um
being a hot girl you know it really started off as me really just letting everybody know what type
of summer I was about to have like me just being unapologetic unapologetic me just doing what I
want to do not really caring about anybody else's opinion like me just being unapologetic, me just doing what I want to do, not really caring about
anybody else's opinion.
Like, me just being me.
You know, just doing
what we want to do as women.
Like, we shouldn't be trying
to fit into, like,
a certain standard
that people try to put us in,
a certain box people
try to put us in.
You should just do
what makes you happy.
Now, when the boys got involved,
it was like, oh, yeah,
y'all on that high girl shit,
y'all think y'all this.
And then it turned into, like,
a whole, like, battle.
High girl versus city boy.
Yeah, I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Y'all making this shit up.
It wasn't.
You've all started that shit.
Yeah, well,
they drug it.
I was like, damn,
like high girls,
like shit I was seeing.
They was like,
yeah, real high girl shit.
I was like.
That's not what it was.
I wondered,
what did you do for the fall?
I went,
it's a high girl semester.
Oh.
We went,
we went back to school.
How's that going?
I've seen you studying when you was a person and all that.
I'm taking quizzes every other day, doing homework.
I try to get it in when I can.
What's your GPA?
Oh.
Busy.
No, I got maybe like a 2.7, 2.8 right now.
It could be better.
What's your major?
Health administration.
Do you really want to do that?
Why are you still in school?
It's got to be a reason.
So, to take it from the beginning,
when you go to college,
I feel like half the time, a lot of people only go into college because that's what their parents told them to do.
Parents made them do it. Right. So, I don't
think that you even go to college knowing
exactly what you want to do. Like, that's
where I was at with it. My grandmother told me
I should go to school to be a nurse.
And I was like, okay, well.
My grandma said, do it.
I guess I'll do it.
But I always knew what I really wanted to do.
I just hadn't told my family.
So I went anyway, and I would be sitting in class super bored.
Like, I would be like, oh, my God, I don't want to be here.
Like, I'm writing raps and shit.
Like, I was just like, damn, I don't want to be here,
but I don't want to drop out because I don't want to disappoint my family.
So I'm like, well, what can I do to like stay here but actually be interested?
So I changed my major to business management and I still didn't like it.
I was still bored.
I was not interested.
So I had left PV and I had got a job and I was still doing classes online at like HTC because I didn't want to not be in school completely.
I just didn't know what I wanted to do with myself because I wanted to rap, but I still wasn't like,
I knew my grandmother wouldn't like it.
So it was something I was hiding from her too.
So finally I was like, you know what, I'm going to just go back to school,
but I really need to figure out what I want to do.
So I knew that I wanted to be in the health field,
but I knew I didn't want to be a doctor.
I knew I didn't want to be a nurse.
I was like, well, what is it?
I just knew I wanted to help. So I told my grandma, like, where I was at with it. Like,
I was like, I really want to run some ****. Like, maybe I could be the head of the hospital. I don't
know. And she was like, you know what you should look into? Healthcare administration. And TSU had
the major. So once I started going to TSU, now I'm actually, like, learning and I'm making A's
and I'm paying attention. And then I figured out, you know what? What I'm learning to hear, a lady had came and spoke
and she, like, ran an assisted living facility.
So I was like, that sounds like something I would really want to get into.
And my grandmother, I watched her take care of my great-grandmother for a long time.
And I'm like, no, definitely this can't be only going on in my family and what I'm seeing.
So I was like, I want to open up some assisted living facilities.
That's smart. That's entrepreneurship.
So that's what I really want to do now.
And since I'm, you know, I've already been going to school for so long, I might as well
keep it going.
How many more credits do you need to finish?
I think I need maybe like six more classes, but I'm taking them like two at a time.
So that's why it's going slow because I am.
We got to get the GPA up though.
We got to get the GPA up.
At least a 3.0.
I got to get a 3.
I want wanna be better
and I wanna do better,
but I'm trying.
You be working.
Yeah.
You're thinking about
life after rap.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, we got more
with Megan Thee Stallion.
When we come back,
don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
E-J-N-V-Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it
with Megan Thee Stallion.
Charlamagne?
You celebrated a boy
on the last month.
Your boy is on February 15th, right? Yep.
So does a hot girl expect a Valentine's Day gift and a
goddamn birthday present? Hell yeah!
I mean, get something both days.
What if you get a car? You still expect another
present or is that a joint gift? So, okay,
so is the car for Valentine's Day or my birthday?
Wow, that's great! It can't be a joint one?
A car! That might be a joint gift.
A whole car can't cover both days? No, no, no. You give her a car
for her birthday and then gas for Valentine's Day.
A gas car.
Even if it's gas, like, it's still got to be some type of celebration.
Like, I walk in the house and there's flowers all over the place.
And then it's like the little thing of gas.
And I'm a little fool.
Like, baby, I got you some gas for your car.
There you go.
I got to say, if somebody bought you a Lamborghini truck on Valentine's Day,
I don't think they have to get you something.
Well, we can go to dinner the next day.
Okay, and you can drive.
I still want it to be a celebration.
Okay.
You would be a good side chick, right? I'll tell you why.
You can be with your man on Valentine's
but then be with you on side chick appreciation
day, which is the next day, but it's also your
birthday. She went both days.
My birthday's real public, so it really
wouldn't be a side chick thing.
I know, but it would still make you feel special.
I need you on both days.
I could lie to you about my girl.
Don't lie.
Don't lie.
I'm going to find out.
She's going to find out.
Somebody's going to find out.
When did you know that you was about to be out of here,
just as far as achieving the levels that you've achieved?
I know there has to be some point when you were like,
damn, this is really happening the way that I want it to.
Was there a moment that you were like, damn, this is really happening the way that I want it to? Um, hmm.
Was there a moment that you were like, damn, look at me,
I'm on this tour, or I got this person?
Yeah, when I first,
when I did my first tour with Meek and Future,
when I even got the
offer, I was like, damn, they know me?
They want me to go on tour with them? So, I
just felt like, you know, I felt super
lit. I was like, oh, wow. Like, sometimes I don't, it surprises me who knows. So I just felt like, you know, I felt super, like, lit. I was like, oh, wow.
Like, sometimes I don't.
It surprises me who knows me.
Like, I think, you know, highly of me in future.
So I'm like, oh, wow.
Like, that's crazy that y'all want me to come on tour with y'all.
Did Beyonce know you before all this, too?
Because I see y'all in pictures.
I don't know when she found out about me, but I was so happy when I met her.
Like, I couldn't believe it.
They invited us to their home on New Year's.
The Carters.
Yes, the Carters.
What did that house look like?
It was crazy.
Damn, it looked like a museum.
Damn.
But when Jay had invited me to the house for the party, I told my whole team, I was like,
okay, y'all, look, I got a show today, but we got to make sure that I make it to this party on time.
Like, I don't want to f*** up.
This is my first time meeting Beyonce.
I want to do it right.
So, literally, my stylist brought my, because it was a pajama party, too.
He brought my outfit to my show super late.
So, the GPS, I remember just looking at the GPS and it said we was going to be there in seven minutes.
It was already damn near 12.
I was in the car.
I was about to cry.
And I was like, you made me miss Beyonce party.
I f***ing hate you.
We literally ran in their house at 1159.
And then everybody's like, oh, and I was like, oh, my God, we made it.
I couldn't believe it.
The Cardinals had a pajama party for New Year's Eve.
Yeah.
But everybody, of course, everybody's pajamas were like super nice.
Right.
Wow. Yeah. I was in shock. Like pajamas were like super nice. Right. Wow.
Yeah.
You were shocked.
Was it a sleepover?
No, it wasn't a sleepover, but I don't know why I was in pajamas.
But it was really nice, though.
But I don't even, I was so pissed because he brought me like these old fancy ass pajamas
and I didn't even wear the fancy ones.
Hold on, give us a little inside peek at that Illuminati life.
Now, who was at this party?
Goodness gracious. I don't know peek of that Illuminati life. Now, who was at this party? Goodness gracious.
I don't know nothing about the Illuminati.
It really be blowing my mind when I see people say that.
Like, oh yeah, she in the Illuminati.
Now I be like, bitch, I don't even know how to get in that shit.
I gotta do some research on the Illuminati.
Okay, I got to look that up.
I don't even think black people can be in the Illuminati.
Yeah, it's disrespectful because people act like they don't believe in God and hard work.
And it only seemed like
black people do that
to each other.
It's like,
how can you discredit
these people for working
all their motherfucking life
and now since they're
doing so well,
they gotta be down
with the devil?
Right.
Like God ain't real.
Yeah.
And you get to see
Meg's throwbacks
of her freestyling
in the Cypher
so you can see
how long it's been happening
and that she was nice
back then.
See how she avoided
answering who was
at that party, though.
She don't want to kick that girl in the mouth.
You know, I don't like telling nobody business.
Look up the pictures online, right?
You can just do that.
We've seen in the press that, you know, you're trying to get released from your contract.
How is that going?
So, actually, I'm not trying to get released from my contract.
I just wanted to, you know, renegotiate some things in my contract.
And how is that going?
Well, it's going.
But I mean,
a lot of things I can't
say because it's legal. I gotta handle
it in court. But I mean,
things are public information.
You got the contracts right here.
I didn't want to talk about this just
yet because I just met you.
But since we're talking about it.
All right.
Now, 1501 Records, what have they done for the career of Megan and Sally?
So when I first got signed, it was Carl and T-Ferris.
And, you know, everybody was super nice, of course.
But for whatever reason, me and my mom were just more drawn to T-Ferris.
Like, he was just really nice, really supportive.
Like, anything I asked for, like, T. Ferris would just do it.
I record at the studio every day with them.
I had shows.
I was just coming up.
T. Ferris would be there.
Carl would pop up from time to time.
I'm pretty sure he helped a lot
with some radio at the time.
And then...
What do you mean?
Like paying for radio?
I don't know how that goes.
It happens, Megan.
It's an illegal show, man.
I'm having an honest conversation.
I'm a radio personality.
I can say that.
Whatever.
I mean, I don't really know how it goes,
so I can't really speak on it,
but I just...
You hired somebody to work right there.
Whatever it is,
I know he had to do something.
You know what I'm saying? Right.
So I'm not taking that away from him. I'm not saying that he never
gave me nothing.
But then when things start really taking off,
it would be me,
my mom, and T. Ferris.
So when we would be on the road,
that's the team.
When things
started picking up even more
I got signed with 300.
So I really just didn't see
nobody
from 1501 that much. Do you think things
shift when you went to Roc Nation and Roc Nation started
managing you and taking care of your contract?
No. What people don't realize is
I don't put everything on social media.
Like I don't put my problems on social media.
Like I'm not a person that like to vent online.
Like I just don't care about a lot of people outside of P.A.N.
So like you would have never knew
that we weren't talking even then.
Like it wasn't like when I see them, I speak.
Yeah, but it's not like we besties or nothing, you know?
Like me and T. Ferris have a really, really close relationship.
So when you got on Instagram, you had just got to the point where you were really frustrated.
Yeah, because I had already seen, like, I just never made it a public thing.
Like, he had already been talking about me online, but I never, like, responded to it.
So I don't think people realized that I was just at a point where I was already frustrated.
And then when I found out I couldn't drop any music, I was like, well, I might as well say something now.
Y'all ain't letting me drop music,
so I might as well tell people why I can't drop it.
I didn't understand that either.
Why would they not want you to drop music if they eat off it?
I really don't know.
I could not tell you what's the thought process.
All right, now keep it locked.
We have more with Meg Thee Stallion.
When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Meg Thee Stallion.
Charlamagne?
Do you think this is a situation where a major company is poaching off the work that a 1501
did to help you get to this point?
No.
Like, Roc Nation don't have nothing to do with the problems we was already going through.
I don't like it.
I don't like that, you know,
people bring up Jay-Z like
Jay-Z not worried about them.
Like, you saying names
that I feel like it's just, you're just trying to
draw, like, attention to the situation. Like,
facts are public. I don't have
to lie. Why would I lie? Like,
I just, I feel like people want to bully me.
Like, you don't have to gang up on me. Like,
I didn't do nothing to y'all, so I really don't understand where it's coming from.
I think a lot of that came from, I think you said that Rock Nation looked at the contract and told you something.
So, when I finally got real lawyers and, like, you know, people around me that knew what they were talking about,
it was like some things in my contract are just unconscionable in the state of Texas.
So, it's like, well, let's just fix the things that are wrong.
So you don't want to be released?
You just want to renegotiate?
I just wanted to renegotiate my contract.
Does it look like things are going to move toward that direction?
Are you feeling like?
Do you feel like if you had a conversation?
I tried to have a conversation.
Because Carl said he hasn't heard from you since August.
He's like, I haven't heard from him.
He ain't heard from me before that.
Like, we just don't have a relationship.
So it's not nothing that's brand new. It's not because of Roc Nation.
We just already didn't have a relationship.
Maybe Carl was the money guy, but he wasn't
the day-to-day guy. That's what it seems like.
I mean, like I said, like, I could
I know what's being said
is not true. Like, all that hundreds of thousands
of dollars, like, people
not even, you know,
putting it out there. Like, we asked for the proof, and you're not even giving us the proof of that. like, people not even, you know, putting it out there. Like, we asked for
the proof, and you're not even giving us
the proof of that.
I gotta go back and look at some of your old Instagram pictures.
Well, thank God we got an album out today.
Well, so it's not even my album.
It's an EP.
So who is Sugar now? So Sugar is
basically just, like, a girl who
is going through it, but she's getting through it.
It's like me basically letting people know that I'm not perfect.
I'm a human.
I know I be f***ing up, but I be trying.
I be getting through it.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't like the fact that everybody be trying to seem so perfect.
Why do you want to be perfect?
Obviously, people online, they just are all so amazing, and's wrong with them and they never been through shit in their life.
So, I mean, that's more so what I'm talking about.
Isn't it whack though that you got to learn that in real time?
Like that has to play out in front of the world.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
As you learn those growing pains.
I mean, it's just all a part of being in the light.
So I can't complain.
I knew what I was getting into.
So it's not nothing I'm upset about.
It's just, I'm just learning as I go.
So when I bump my head, I just be like, okay.
You and DaBaby make great records with each other.
Oh, yeah. Are y'all doing an album together?
Is that a plan to do a full project?
I don't know if we're going to do a full project, but I know we definitely got
some music that's going to come up
and some other things I don't
want to say yet. Yeah, DaBaby always
says if he could do a collab album
with somebody, it would be you. I love him.
I really think that would be fire if we actually did it.
What type of deal is
Megan Thee Stallion looking for? Not necessarily
in that situation, but just in general.
At this point in your career, what would be fair
to Megan Thee Stallion?
I just want it to be fair and I want it to be
good for everybody.
Nothing is going to be perfect, but if we can both come to an agreement,
like, you got to give a little to get a little, you know what I'm saying?
And I understand that, so I just want everything to be fair.
Do you have a relationship with J Prince at all?
No.
So have you ever met him?
In person, no.
Okay.
Growing up, did you look up to rap a lot in J Prince?
Had to, right?
In youth?
No.
Really?
Like, I didn't.
I was young, so I didn't really know anything about it. Oh, got you, got you. I mean, if? In Houston? No. Really? Like, I didn't, I was young,
so I didn't really know
anything about it.
Oh, got you, got you.
I mean, if you knew
Pimp C and all of them,
though.
I only knew the music.
Like, I didn't know
the backstory,
I didn't know the background.
I mean, you know,
I'm from Houston,
you know, you hear things,
but it wasn't,
I didn't think it was
going to be anything
that I would ever
have to deal with.
Right.
Now, let's take a,
can we talk,
oh, I wanted to talk
about the song,
Bitch.
Hold on.
Jay accused you of lying
this morning on his Instagram.
He said you're lying on him
in court documents.
What is that about?
Like, that's something
that I definitely can't talk about,
but I don't lie, though.
Who helped you negotiate
your original deal
with 1501?
I'm just saying,
I'm just asking.
It's like an interrogation.
Yeah, I mean,
all of this,
I really would like to answer it
Gotcha
So hopefully
You know
Next time I come
I will be able to talk about it
But right now
You know
It's just in court
So I can't say a lot of stuff
Is this stressful for you
Right now though
Oh yeah definitely
Because all I want to do
Is just put out my music
And that's all I care about
But she gotta go guys
So let's play
She just got here
She gotta go
I'm telling you what they're telling me
But a 40% profit share You think that's good for established artists,
for new established artists?
Or you want a little more?
I mean, 40% seems pretty good.
I mean, that's good.
Like, that's really not even the highlight of what my problem is.
But you can't talk about what the problem is.
I can't talk about exactly what it is right now.
But sugar is out right now.
One more question.
I've seen you also
being accused
of going Hollywood too fast.
By who?
The people who
are going against me right now?
No.
No?
I see Isaac Hayes
say that a lot on Instagram.
Isaac Hayes?
Yeah.
Not the same as his son.
Oh, I was like, damn.
I was like, damn.
What the hell is that?
I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn. I was like, damn.
No, his son says, he likes you, but he says he thinks you're going too Hollywood too fast.
Well, I don't know him, and he don't know me, so he can't say none of that.
I mean, I guess you just go off what you hear from another guy, and you want to run with that, but I don't know that man.
You think L.A. impacts your music at all?
No.
I'll say every time I see Meg,
she always been really nice to all her fans, her hotties.
Anybody that really know me know how I really am.
As a matter of fact, my goddaughter met you backstage at a show
and was so excited.
Y'all got cute pictures together and everything.
She's 18 years old.
You didn't even know who she was.
And she came, took pictures.
You bothering nobody?
Every time I see you, you always act the same
I know people who I met them early in their career
and they act funny later
she's always been humble, always been cool
I don't have no reason to act no different
it don't matter how much money I get
I share it with my whole team
I don't feel like being mean
I don't feel like being a bitch is going to benefit me
in any way
my grandma always said, man, it't take you where money won't.
Yeah, my grandmother, like, pretty much preached the same thing to me.
My grandma always told me to just be positive, like, always be kind to people.
You never know what people are going through.
So you just always should be nice.
All right, it's Meg Thee Stallion.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Make sure you tell them to watch out for Florida, man.
Florida, man.
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
Yes, you are a donkey.
A Florida man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason.
It gave him too much money.
Florida man is arrested after deputies say he rigged the door to his home
in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife.
Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a Flamingo.
It's a breakfast club, bitchy.
Donkey of the day with Charlemagne the guy.
I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this.
Well,
donkey of the day goes to a mother in
Seminole County named Amanda
Meter. You know where Seminole County is, right?
It's in Florida. Okay, I'll never
forget in the now classic record, my president
when Jeezy says he cheated in Florida.
Would that make him a Seminole?
It has nothing to do with nothing.
It's just a bar I like about Florida and Seminoles.
Now, for the record, what does your Uncle Charla always say about the great state of Florida?
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
There is no debate.
All right?
There's things you hear in the news, and before you even know where it happened, you just know it's Florida.
And this is one of those stories okay see girl that was trending on social media thanks to espn's l
duncan drop on the clues bombs for l duncan okay i'm a proud girl dad i have three beautiful
princesses at the house so i love to see the energy of men showcasing their love for their
daughters because a wise man named asanta ray told me once daughters are a blessing every time you
have a daughter the quality of your life greatly improves.
They just make you better humans.
And he was correct.
But Florida didn't want to get down with the girl dad trend.
Nope.
Florida decided to introduce us to boy mom.
This is a mother who goes above and beyond for their son.
This mother loves her son in a way I bet you don't.
Okay?
Now, we all take our kids to do extracurricular activities.
But what if your child's extracurricular activity is crime?
Would you encourage or try to discourage him from that?
Well, let's go to WFTV 9 ABC for the report to see what Amanda Meador did.
All right.
Here's only in Florida's story.
New at 6 in Seminole County, a 15-year-old boy is accused of robbing a Winter Springs convenience store at gunpoint.
And because he doesn't even have a driver's license, yes, police say his mother had to drive the getaway car.
She also acted as the lookout during that heist.
Amanda Meter is charged with robbery with a firearm and neglect of a child.
When Meter and her 15-year-old son and two others drove to this Circle K at the intersection of Redbug Lake Road
and Tuscawilla Road. According to the arrest report, Meter's teenage son allegedly entered
the store donning a mask and produced a firearm and then demanded money from a fearful cashier.
While the robbery was going down, Meter allegedly backed up her minivan to the store.
Surveillance cameras from the Circle K captured everything, including Meter's face, but that wasn't what led investigators to her and her son.
That note contained the juvenile's fingerprints, and when they searched Meter's home in
unincorporated Winter Park, they found a mask and clothing that matched what the robber wore
during the robbery. Meter is being held without bond here at the jail until her arraignment in
March. Her son is being held across the street of the Juvenile Justice Center. He is charged with armed robbery.
Amanda Meter, what was the other plan? There was nothing else you could do,
you could think to do with your son. I have a whole list of activities I could think of,
but first of all, drop one of the clues bombs from Marfa Chagowski.
She was the news anchor who reported that story.
She started it off with this very accurate statement.
Just press play on the clip one more time, please.
Just the first line.
Here's only in Florida story.
New at 6.
That's it.
That's it.
It's only a Florida story.
Okay.
Marfa, that's what a good news anchor does.
All right.
I saw you trying to remain objective, you know, trying to be a good news anchor,
but the fact you acknowledged the crazy of Florida lets me know you're not crazy,
and you're probably not from Florida.
People from Florida rarely can step outside themselves and see they're crazy.
So salute to you, Marfa Shigalsky.
Now, Amanda Meador, I Googled a list of mother-son activities for you to do with your son.
You could have had a picnic at a park.
You could have went to fly a kite.
You could have went miniature golfing.
You could have binge-watched Power.
You could have went fishing for the day.
You could have created a Finsta account on social media
and, you know, troll your siblings.
There are several ways to bond with your son.
There are several ways to spend time with your son
that don't involve you being an accessory to a crime.
Now, I have to say, I am impressed because when I was 15, I can't remember my mom taking me anywhere. to spend time with your son that don't involve you being an accessory to a crime.
Now, I have to say, I am impressed because when I was 15,
I can't remember my mom taking me anywhere I wanted to go.
I remember vividly trying to coax her into dropping me off at one of my little girlfriend's houses, and she wasn't with it.
She might have dropped me off to a football game or two,
but I don't recall that either.
Father did, definitely.
Mom, I don't remember, but that's also because I was the second oldest of five,
so she didn't feel like leaving the house with all them kids.
So I understand.
Now, it's layers to the stupidity of a man to meet it, okay?
It's layers of the stupidity in this story.
Number one, the young man wasn't wearing gloves.
So the note he gave to the cashier is what led to his arrest because his DNA was all over it.
It's a part of me that feels like he simply didn't know any better, okay?
He had a mask.
I can see him getting dressed at the house asking his mom, mom, do I need to wear gloves with this
mask? And his mom replying, no, son, just make sure you bring the gun back with you and, you know,
you'll be fine. So being that he had no gloves, his DNA was all over the note. And I'm gonna tell
you something else. I think Amanda Meada actually wrote the note for her son. It only makes sense.
That 15-year-old walked into a Circle K with a note from his mom.
The note probably said, to whom it may concern.
This is a note to say thank you in advance for the money you are about to put in my kid's bag.
Don't make this difficult.
Don't get shot.
Sincerely, Amanda Meada.
I can see it.
Moms write notes for stuff all the time.
When you forget your homework, they write notes. When you miss the bus, they write notes for you. When you. Moms write notes for stuff all the time. When you forget your homework,
they write notes. When you miss the bus, they write notes for you. When you late, they write
notes for you. When you got medicine to take at school, they write notes for you. But in Florida,
they write notes for their sons who want to rob Circle Case. Please give Amanda Meader the biggest
hee-haw. None of this would have happened if she would have been being a mother and not an accomplice.
Because even the clothes back at the house, he probably just came home, took them clothes off, and threw them on the floor.
If she'd have made that boy pick them clothes up and throw them in the hamper, they probably would have never found him.
Uh-uh.
All right.
Oh, but you know what?
What?
We got to play a game of Guess What?
Rice It Is!
Okay? Play a game of Guess What Race It Is. Okay.
Now, Florida Mom, 15-year-old son.
She's an accomplice in him robbing a Circle K,
drove him to the Circle K, and was the getaway driver.
DJ Envy, guess what race she is.
White.
Shake it off.
Shake it off. Shake it off.
Okay.
Angelique,
Circle K got robbed
by a 15-year-old man.
His 15-year-old boy.
His mother was the getaway driver.
She was an accomplice in the crime.
Guess what race
she is.
Definitely Caucasian.
Well, I will say
that DJ Envy, Angel E, you both
are correct.
Amanda Meador is
Caucasian. Yes.
So let Kathy Griffin give her the biggest hee-haw.
Please give this giant jar of mail the
biggest hee-haw.
All right.
All right. Well, thank you for that donkey todaye-haw. All right. All right.
Well, thank you for that donkey today.
Yes, sir.
All right.
We got more coming up next.
We're The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club.
Your body is DJ Envy Angela Yee.
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Terrell Owens and Matthew Hatchett.
Charlamagne?
How do you think your ego helped and hurt you in the league?
Teal?
Well, if you don't know me, then, of course,
you're not going to know how to perceive me.
The narrative was that I was a bad teammate,
locker room problems, things of that nature.
But my defense was no players have ever come out
and said that I was that that the media has put out there.
I had coaches that served as father you know put out there I had coaches you know that were
served as like father figures like big brothers to me they would pull me to the side they would
let me know if I was doing something wrong every stop that I've made I've had those coaches that
pulled me to the side I'm like yo you're not doing anything wrong these were black coaches at that
they knew what was going on in those locker rooms, regardless of what was being reported about me. So that gave me confidence to still be who I was, be outspoken.
And when I was in press conferences or what have you, post-game or whatever,
if they asked me what happened during the course of the game or my feelings about the game, I gave you the real.
It had to hurt in the later years, though, right?
Like when you were still in shape, clearly you could still play, but clearly they didn't want you in the league anymore.
Negativity sells.
Now, I think with the
social media platforms that
we have now, I think I could have dispelled
some of those things.
I would do an interview with somebody
like a Deion Sanders or Andrea
Kramer for like an hour and a half.
But then they would break
those hour and a half down to like they would break those hour and a half
down to like five, ten minutes.
And get that headline.
Right.
And then you have a panel of guys
that are critiquing that little sound bite.
So it compounded and made me look even worse.
I've been a lot of places with T,
and 99% of those negative things
that are on ESPN or Fox or whatever,
it usually comes from a personal basis. I've gone on Shannon
and Skip's show.
Skip has been like... Skip hates you.
Right. He was the main cover
because he was a writer, beat writer,
in San Francisco around the time.
Again, he used me to kind of, I guess,
put himself in the forefront, I guess, to be
who he is now. Catapult is correct.
Right. All the things that he said about
me,
they're not factual.
Did you ever press skip?
Like, I know when you see the TV, sit down.
But did you ever catch skip out and about and like... No.
No, I've never seen him really...
I've never really seen him outside of the studio.
What would you do?
What would you do?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
What do you want me to do?
I'm asking what you gonna do.
You got a lot of animosity about that dude.
If you see him.
I'm not about that life.
Would you speak?
No, I mean, sometimes, you know, they say kill people with kindness.
Sometimes I kill them with blindness.
I just act like I don't see them.
That's why you keep your shades on?
I just act like I don't see them.
So you really don't fuck with Skip?
No, not really.
But like I said, I've gone on the show because I'm confident in who I am and what I've done and my character.
And so, again, over these years, like I said, I think he's done a disservice for who he is as a journalist to create false narratives and things about me.
He think he personally attacks you?
Oh, no doubt.
For sure.
I mean, the whole T.O. obliterator thing, this, that, and the other.
Team obliterator.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I even went on the show.
And again, you know, he said that was an issue in Dallas. And I've been removed from every stop, this, that, and the other. Team obliterator. Yeah, I even went on a show, and again,
he said there was an issue in Dallas,
and I've been removed from every stop, this, that, and the other,
but I went on the show with facts.
He said that was an issue.
My character was an issue.
When I left Dallas, I went on that show.
When you get released from a team,
the team filed as to why they let you go.
So there's a number of boxes they could have checked.
If it was conduct detrimental to the team,
they could have checked that.
But you know what box that was checked as to why they released me?
It was performance-based.
Too slow.
And I don't even know how that was
because I was the leading receiver.
I was the leading receiver.
I'm surprised y'all don't fight yet.
I'm surprised y'all don't fight.
Y'all don't wrestle with Moonford
towards slap boxes.
That's the only way you can stay relevant.
You don't even know who he is. That's the only way he can stay relevant. You don't even know who he is.
That's the only way he can stay relevant.
Hey, Nino Brown G Money, he's going to take you to the roof, bro.
I'm going to throw him up off that joint, too.
One time, y'all ain't fight.
One time, y'all don't fight.
Man, I will mop this young boy up, man.
Don't play with me.
Come on, man.
Now, listen, we do have Antonio Brown coming up here, right?
I'm going to check that flight.
That's all I'm saying.
What do you think about what Roger Goodell had to say about, you know,
wanting to help him out in the league?
I don't know.
What did he say?
He said that they want to make sure they help him.
I think they're talking about him personally.
It seems like it's bigger than football.
They're talking about his personal life.
So they just want to make sure he doesn't literally, like, you know, do something to himself.
Now, you guys have been in the league for a long time.
Oh, wait, I wanted to ask you what your conversation was like, though, with Antonio.
I went over there as a friend.
Even with the video that went out, like I said, we've had this discussion.
My thing is, you know, he's a father.
He's a dad.
I didn't like, you know, the way he was using the language in front of his kids.
And whatever situations that he had in regards to the police, his girlfriend or wife, whatever the case may be,
handle that outside of the video camera.
You know what I mean?
I didn't have a father growing up.
He didn't have one growing up.
So we have a responsibility to be better than what our fathers were to us
now talking about kids you guys been in the league a long time we talked about ct a little bit earlier
would you allow your kids to play football yeah i mean i think they're trying to do whatever they
can to make the game safer um i'm not sure i've never really pushed my kids to play anything um
if they wanted to play sports football or what have have you, then I'm all for it.
What do you think, Matthew? I'm not sure yet
because, again, I don't have kids yet, so
What? I know, right?
You win condoms all those years in the league? Hey, you know what?
I buy every condom that he has never
bought.
He's got
25 kids, so
that's why I look at that.
I love my kids, but
I'm envious of you guys.
I thought you were about to say, I love it, bro.
But you said you
wouldn't let your kids, you don't know if you'd let your kids play? I'm not sure yet
because it's like, you know, when your
kid's like nine or ten, that's when you kind of let them
play. And if he's the hammer, he's out there hitting
everybody, getting up, saying, I love it.
Then you let that kid play.
But if he's that kid that's kind of whining about it
and, you know, crying and I got a hurt shoulder, a bloody nose, and I say don't let that kid play. But if he's that kid that's kind of whining about it and crying
and I got a hurt shoulder, a bloody nose,
then I say don't let that kid play.
If he's the hammer, let him play.
If he's the nail, don't let him play.
Yeah, if they got the passion for it, the drive for it,
then, yeah, I mean, why prevent a kid from wanting to achieve their dreams?
You know what I mean?
The CTE, the injuries is what a lot of parents say.
But that's part of the game. That's always
going to be something, some recourse to
any sport that you play.
So, Hatch, let's start with you. What do you think of this
whole Aaron Hernandez situation?
I think the Florida
Gators, the NFL,
the NCAA, they all knew what was going
on with him. And when you're that good,
they do what they have
to do to keep things quiet. You think the
NFL will have a star player? Because
we don't have a lot of openly gay NFL
players. You think that's something that's
going to happen sometime soon? Well, what was the guy?
Michael Sams? Yeah, every time.
Not a lot. He could
play and they got rid of him real quick. Every time
somebody comes out and openly
expresses themselves or
want to come out the closet and be brave,
they're jobless.
Did either of y'all have players in the
locker room that y'all knew? I've never
known one. I've never been in a
situation where I even suspected it.
So your advice would be stay in the closet if you're
in the NFL. Yeah, I mean, if you're trying to really
have an NFL career, like, otherwise
your point of really
coming out. If you want to be an advocate for the LGBT community, Matthew's like, just go do that.
Again, that Michael Sam scenario a couple years back.
Did he get drafted?
He got drafted.
He was seventh round.
Yeah.
But he was out of the league so quick.
It didn't last.
It doesn't help.
Was he really good, though?
He was good enough, but they
really treat anyone who doesn't
fit that criteria, and
they get them out the league. Because if you really look
at it, the T.O. scenario,
the Michael Sam scenario, not
in that scenario. No, no, I get you, Sam.
You got your confidence.
I'm waiting to see where you're going with this one.
I'm waiting to see where you're going.
I'm waiting to see where you're going. And the Tim Tebow scenario, it's really all the same.
They're three way different type of scenarios.
Religion.
Religion, sex.
Sexuality.
And a bad character, but they get them out.
You see more of the T.O.'s, though.
More of the bad character, attitude, ego, you think?
Not until they do something.
If you see a bad character like he had when you're in your first.
I've never really done anything.
Let's say if he would have did that when he was in his first or second year.
He would have never made it for 15 years.
You have to perform first.
You see what I'm saying?
So, again, those whole scenarios, you don't get to perform unless you're that good that early.
And then we're going to give you some leeway later on.
But the Michael Sam never got there.
So that could be like kind of Colin Kaepernick situation too.
Perhaps.
Exact same scenario.
Do not move the needle in the negative direction,
else we will get rid of you.
All right, keep it locked.
We got more with T.O. and Matthew Hatchett when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Terrell Owens and Matthew Hatchett, a T.O.
Now, Colin Kaepernick, did you see his workout?
What did you think?
Do you think he deserves to be in the league after watching this workout?
Yeah.
After the workout, that had nothing to do with it.
That had nothing to do with it.
To me, he should have been there three years ago,
but at the same time, Cap did pass up contracts that were on the table because he wanted more money, so that's on him.
But he wanted fair value for what he was doing.
But who says it's fair?
Based on his production, look at the guys that you can compare him to.
You can't compare him to nobody.
Why not? Because his numbers and his Super Bowls, let's say, because. That you can compare him to. You can't compare him to nobody. Why not?
Because his numbers and his Super Bowls, let's say, because he didn't have it right.
You're only good at your last game.
So, again, if you compare his stats to when he left the game versus the guys that are playing now.
They want to pay him like a backup, right?
What years was he passing up contracts?
Because I've heard that's not true, that he didn't pass up no contracts.
It's just hearsay.
About three, four years ago. What is the number? What numbers was it that he was passing up contracts. Because I've heard that's not true, that he didn't pass up no contracts. It's just hearsay. About three, four years ago.
What is the number?
What numbers was it that he was passing up?
Nobody knows.
Yeah, nobody knows.
I don't know.
But I heard it was market value.
That's all I'm saying.
But what you're saying is he should have been getting paid
like the top 20 guys.
That's what he thought.
I didn't think he was a top 20 guy.
I thought he could play.
I thought he should be in the NFL for sure.
He could be battling for a
starting position and you treat it the same
way. When you're a free agent and
somebody's like, okay, you can come here and you can compete
for a job. Some players don't want to hear that.
Some people want to hear, I'm the starter.
And like I said, maybe, I don't know, maybe that's
what he wanted to hear, but he didn't want to hear,
you have to compete for this job. And then if...
He didn't want to go through what Mello went through.
Mello went through a team and had to play as a star for a star position.
There you go.
But he did, and he is a star now.
But he did, and now he's back playing.
But you have to go through that process.
We're not just going to give it to you, especially black athletes.
They don't just give it to you, especially in the NFL.
There's a bunch of 5, 10, 180-pound white quarterbacks
that are third-string guys.
They keep around for four or five,
sometimes six, seven years in the NFL.
You'll never hear about them,
but they're not moving the needle.
If you're moving the needle,
you better be good, dang near great.
And that's what the NFL's about.
But he's better than those guys, those backup guys.
But he can't get paid like a third-year guy,
a third-stringer.
That's what you just said.
He wanted more money.
We're going to pay you like a third or second-stringer.
But what is that money?
Nobody knows what you're saying.
I know what it's like a backup quarterback gets paid.
He gets paid $4 million a year, but he wants 10.
I think he's worth that.
But you're not the GM or the owner, so your opinion doesn't matter.
That's not the point that I'm making.
I'm saying that he's worth it.
So if he turns it down.
To you, not to 32 other teams.
For a guy that's not comparable to his talent, then yeah, of course you're going to say that.
Damn.
Wait.
Wow.
I wasn't sure.
I'm kidding.
I'm telling you the real stats.
You're a turd.
I can't pay you now based off your best year at all.
Thank you.
You are not getting paid today for yesterday's game.
Now, Donovan McNabb.
Nick Nasty.
You've been talking, you know,
you've been saying about how your team love you and stuff,
but Donovan McNabb had some things to say.
He said that you're...
The kind of big eagles to you
that produce inappropriate behavior.
I'm glad you said that because even, you know,
like I said, there's some
inaccuracies, not
factual stuff that even Skip said.
I heard an exchange a couple weeks ago
he had with Shannon, you know, saying
that McNabb, you know, challenged me to a fight and I backed down.
He backed down?
He said Jason Witten challenged me to a fight and I backed down.
Wow.
You sound like a punk.
Trust me, neither one of them don't want this problem.
When I got in a scuffle with Hugh Douglas.
That was a real story.
I went into that locker room after that,
and I saw Donovan there,
and he knew what had just happened.
And I asked him.
And you said the same thing.
You want a piece of me, old man?
I said, no.
And I said, if you want some of this,
you can get some of it, too.
So you put your hand on Hugh Douglas?
Yeah.
I was in the training room.
I was getting treatment or what have you,
and I was in the Hydroworks pool. treatment or what have you and I was in the HydraWorks pool.
The door was cracked and he was yelling
through the door or from the outside
and I heard him and he was like, yeah, some people in here
are faking injuries, this, that, and the other.
I found it disrespectful.
So I got up out of the water,
addressed the situation. We got
in a little scuffle, this, that, and the other. There wasn't really
any blows thrown, but like
I said, I handled my own. So you fought you, Douglas, and you went and challenged Donovan Benab, that, and the other. There wasn't really any blows thrown. But like I said, I handled my own.
So you fought Hugh Douglas,
then you went and challenged Donovan McNabb to a duel.
And you won the duel.
He said he was kind of disruptive in the locker room.
And Donovan McNabb said no, just to be clear.
He didn't want...
Oh, he didn't want none of this.
Trust me.
You can see how that can be misconstrued,
like you can be disruptive in a locker room.
But what about...
You didn't say nothing about Hugh Douglas.
Yeah. Being disruptive in the locker room. He's the one that started't say nothing about Hugh Douglas being disruptive in a locker room.
He's the one that started.
Yeah.
Now, I'm going to say something.
I'm always rooting
for everybody black.
You and Jason Whitten,
I might have to go
with Jason Whitten, man,
in the fight.
Well, I mean,
you can go with that.
You can go with that.
What you think, man?
Hey, I didn't see.
He has this thing.
It's a different level of strength. He's got
that old country strength.
If you don't put 225 on the bar, he probably
barely go do it. But he's like that
old country boy strength where when he
has to do something, he's got to lift a car.
He's like, God! Yeah, he's one of those dudes.
Did you and Jason do that?
Jason, Whitney and I,
there's never been any altercation. Did you fight anybody in the? But that's the thing. It never happened? Jason, Whitney and I, there's never been any altercation.
Any beef anywhere.
That's the thing.
Did you fight anybody in the Cowboys locker room?
No.
No scuffles, no nothing?
I almost got into it with the receiver coach, Todd Haley.
Shoving, pushing?
No, we just got in a...
No, they ain't never going to put hands on.
He would never put hands on the coach.
No, I ain't never do that.
I'm never going to disrespect anybody unless they put their hands on me.
But let me ask you this, as a table, right? If just
your eyeballs, right?
You see a white dude
and a black dude fighting in the
street and a cop comes up.
They're both two feet away. If a cop comes up,
who's the cop going to stop
first? The black guy.
Yeah. That was just
him. You see what I'm saying? It had nothing
to do with... Nobody even knows all these situations.
If he took his shades off,
he'd look less suspicious.
I just want to throw that out there.
Why do you have your sunglasses on, man?
My future's bright, man.
I'm here at the breakfast club.
This is an honor for me to be here.
We're happy you're here.
And one thing you both can agree on
is that T.O. should have been
one of the NFL's all-time 100, right?
I kind of like that he's not in it.
Wow.
Because now we're on the same level.
We're on the same level, though.
We both didn't make it.
What about top 10 wide receivers?
He should have made that.
Oh, he definitely should have made that.
Yeah.
I mean, it's not even close.
You know what I'm saying?
I've been, like, these are the things that I've been forced to kind of digest throughout the course of my career.
Like I said, I wasn't looked upon to be, like, the next Jerry Rice.
Honestly, I never had any ambition,
never thought I would play beyond the collegiate level.
I didn't even really watch football growing up.
I didn't really know who Jerry Rice was until, like, my junior year in college.
I hate that.
Because I'm such a football guy, and I wanted all that,
and here's a guy that said he didn't want all that
and he got it.
I want to choke him out right now.
Right.
Got to subscribe to this podcast.
