Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo! Get off your computer, Angelie.

Why? It's Black Friday. Why would I get off my computer? I'm going to be on it all day. Are you crazy? You know, first of all, Cyber Monday is a bigger deal than Black Friday for us to do online shopping, if you know what I'm talking about. All right.

Some of those deals have been available already. People don't even wait until Black Friday now. All right, you damn shopper. You know, I've already been doing all I got to do to buy presents for all of my family. I hate waiting until the last minute. Oh, hello you damn shopper. You know, I already been doing all I gotta do to buy presents for all of my family. I hate waiting till the last minute. Oh, hello to you too, Charlamagne. Hey.

Well, it is Black Friday. Y'all cute. There's a lot of sales going on today. I know a lot of y'all are running around into those sales, so just keep the Breakfast Club on. You know I'm black, and it's Friday.

It's the Breakfast Club. Don't move. That was Needed Me, Rihanna. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We premiered his record earlier this week.

Yeah, man. Big K.R.I.T. What's happening? What's up, what's up? Independent K.R.I.T. Oh, yo, Independent K.R.I.T. More tied to the sundial, man. There you go.

Feel good, feel good. I always feel bad, man. I did this morning. I'm going to tell you why. I feel bad because I be mentioning all the, like, always feel bad, man, I did this morning. I'm gonna tell you why. I feel bad because I be mentioning all the, like, new, young, hot, fresh rappers, and I always forget to say Big K.R.I.T. name, and as soon as they leave my mouth, I'm like, damn,

I ain't say K.R.I.T. Hey, man, but we still out here making it happen, though. And that gives me the opportunity to still put out this quality music, so, you know, we still winning. Absolutely. We still good. Absolutely. And I was telling you when I saw you out there that I loved your performance at the BET Hip Hop Awards. Thank you. I appreciate Awards. I appreciate that. I appreciate that.

That's a dope performance. Man, it's still, I'm still trying to get my mind wrapped around it all. Because, you know, obviously you want to be able to do your best on stage. But at some point, I got overwhelmed and kind of broke down, man. Because it's such an important topic. I want to bring awareness. And I've been putting a lot of that content in my music from years ago, bro. But to be on that kind of platform and be able to do that, you know, it was amazing.

How'd you get off Def Jam? Hey, man, because, you know, I don't know, man. They left me in the dungeon as a dragon. It was cool, and then they just forgot about me. So I kind of creeped on about that thing, and I'm free, and I'm a real kind of free. And then I finally got to perform on an award show after the fact, which is even crazier. Which is weird, though. It's not like you don't sell records.

I mean, you do pretty good. It was during that transition from CD sales to streaming, where everybody was trying to figure out, where's the game going? And, you know, if you're not streaming or getting massive numbers, it's like, well, you might not have a place. But, no, hard copy sales still exist.

And we're going to get those and a new streaming aspect. Being a young man from Mississippi, was the industry everything you thought it was going to be? Ooh, yeah. Because it's like the whole idea, like, you got to get out here and still make it work for you. And there's so many sharks, and all those warnings, like, yo, when you put your name on that contract, you might not never get out the deal. So it was a blessing for me to really be able to kind of walk away independent on all my everything

and be out here just doing it. And now from this point on, it's partnerships. You can't just sign big credit. You look even younger now than you did when you first came out. Oh, man, I lost like 30-something pounds. You know what I'm saying? I eat vitamins and stuff now. I'm like, I'm chilling.

I ain't drinking as much. You feel me? And, yeah, and I grew this beard. Right. So when you first came into the game, you felt like it was a lot of social drinking and not eating right and not being healthy, and now you've been more conscious of that? Yeah, definitely.

I mean, when you get a little bit of money, especially for me, it was like I just overindulged. I was going to Roof Chris, Del Frisco. As soon as we leave here, I'm at Del Frisco every time. Like, bro, give me three appetizers, a steak, I'm going in. And before you know it, you're 30 pounds in, and your chest hurting, and you're like, man, I'm only in. And before you know it, you're 30 pounds in, and your chest hurting, and you're like, man, I'm only 27 years old.

It's like that freshman 30. I'm done with that, though. So you're like vegan now? No, I'm still cranking the steak hand out, but I done calmed down, man, because I'm trying to be here as long as I possibly can. Being on stage and sweating it out and being heavy, that ain't working. Did something happen that made you feel like, I got to clean this up? I would say just the drinking aspect.

And you start waking up, your back start hurting, and you start seeing a lot of people that are in the industry that are older than you, and they're getting right. You know what I'm saying? I was watching Luda go in and Slim Thug and all these people. I'm like, man, I got to get it together. They trying to let me know, like, all right, young'un, you need to start eating better. And then before long, you know, you get in the gym,

you start training, you start feeling better, you're on stage, you feel better, and then everybody can see it on you. Like, hey, man, you looking better. So that's enough for me. As long as you can look down and see your dick, you're fine. Hey, that's a great thing. That's all it boils down to.

Hey, that's what I'm trying to say. It was getting to the point where I was like, hold on. And then if you're resting your hands on your stomach while you're kicking it. Man, I was. And that's what was going on. You know it's real when your partners is like, man, you eat real good, Chris. And you don't know if that's a compliment. And then for you to know it, I'm in the mirror like, man, my chain don't really bounce on my chest like it used to

because it's resting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nah, we fixed that. Now, the first you did it to be a hip-hop award, that was from a song called Might Not Be Okay. Might Not Be Okay, man. Why Might Not It Be Okay? Well, shout out to the homie Kenneth Whalen because I did the record with him. Amazing musician, amazing artist, and he's the person singing on the hook.

And he produced the record. But it was right after Mr. Sterling got killed, and the footage that came out, I had dropped 12 for 12 that day, and then that night, everybody saw that footage. And for me as an artist, it really hurt me, because I was like, man, I'm doing music, I'm trying to say these things and be aware, but is music really helping people?

Is it healing anything? And I probably took a whole week off from writing or even worrying about going to the studio. And I called Kenneth, and I was like, man, at some point, what if it's not okay? Like, what if it's a higher level of this that we aren't realizing where it's going to take that good and evil, it's those energies that's going to fix this. What if just our conscious mind can't get it wrapped around? Like, there's just some people that don't want to see you breathe. There's nothing you can do about that.

That was the idea. To create a song that was so honest. Me not really trying to be a superhero rapper and are we going to be good? Nah, man. What if this isn't okay? That record resonates with me because that's truly how you feel. You wake up some mornings and you're like, what can I

do in that situation? And somebody always says to me, like, people be like, what's the difference between black-on-black crime and police brutality? For me, the biggest difference is if a brother tries to get at me, I can defend myself. I can't do that with the police. You don't know what to do. Yeah, that gives you, like, a helpless feeling. And that's kind of scary now, is like,

you don't know what to do. Like, back in the day, it was like, alright, man, I'm just worried about going to jail. I get pulled over. No sermons. They're just gonna grab me. You don't know what to do. Like, back in there, it's like, alright, man, I'm just worried about going to jail. I get pulled over. No sudden moves. They're just gonna grab me. You don't know what to do. Now you're like, okay. I don't know how you feeling today. You know what I'm saying? And so, that's the scary thing. And I tell them, man, people don't pull

over because they not scared of you. They pull over because they're scared. Like, okay, let me get over here. Alright. The people that take off and trying to get through traffic while you chase them, they ain't scared. Yeah. You know, like, those are the people, like, man, if I'm pulled over, bro, I'm really, like, whew. I won't make it home.

Yeah, exactly. Like, I'm... Exactly. I pull over nowadays when the blue light's not on. If I'm driving and I see a cop behind me, I'm like, I let him pass me. I'm like, I don't want no problem. I don't even want to do that because I feel like that looks suspicious. I don't care.

Crank the gas station or something if you just feel like you're just going to pull over. I pull over, jump out, go act like I'm getting something, come back out. Like, okay. The other day I got pulled over right around the corner from my house. And I had two of my friends in the car. They pulled us over. We all put our hands up. Like, we don't have nothing.

They was like, put your hands down. Stop playing. I was like, we're not playing. We just want to make sure everybody's good. Wow. Good to go. And they just let me go because I think they were a little offended. You don't have nothing. They were like, put your hands down. Stop playing. I was like, we're not playing. We just want to make sure everybody's good. Good to go. And they just let me go because I think they were a little offended. You don't know. We got more with Crit when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Drake with Control

of the Morning. Everybody, it's DJ MV Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Big Crit is in the building, Yee. Do you think the artists need to be more responsible in their lyrics? We were having this whole discussion about what Donald Trump said and got caught on camera saying,

and a lot of people were like, well, that's how rappers talk all the time anyway. Do you feel like that's something that we need to hold each other accountable for when somebody says something

that's out of order? Just call them out on it? Well, I mean, I'm not running for president. You know what I'm saying? First off. And a president isn't a rapper.

For them, however they express themselves is totally different than our genre of music and where we grew up and how we've expressed ourselves in the neighborhoods we come from, the lingo, the slang. Obviously, hip-hop is an art form. So you paint whatever you want on this canvas. I don't really call a thing of politics as an art form. You know? What are you going to do for people, the society?

It's a different way, a different lingo of talking or expressing yourself than rap. Rap may be just personally how you feel and what everybody else thinks. I don't think a politician or a president can think that way. You have to think for the mass majority. So you can be self-centered and be a rapper because people also feed into that mentality because most people, you know, might not have the courage to say cute to their boss, but they listen to their favorite rapper

and that make them feel like, you know what? But we do have to take account what we do say on records, explain it at the end of the day, or give the opposite spectrum, you know? And that's what I try to do in my music, and I've always tried to do that, but I'm not perfect, man. I think politicians should take a page out of a rapper's book. Like, my man Norrie always says that Trump turned the campaign into a smack DVD battle.

It's a level of realness, you know what I mean? Like, nobody care about that politician, say everything, write politically correct stuff no more. But you kind of, the problem with that is you kind of want them to a little bit because you go overseas and you're doing a lot of these, you're talking to a lot of these ambassadors and stuff like that. You don't want to just be like, yeah, man, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. I'm like, what the fuck? You definitely don't want a president to be like, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We need the whole, you know, nah, man, you got to, because you're speaking for the people. You can't be here now. Nah, you can't be like that. You got to act like you just walked in somebody's mama house. That's why being in politics is being political. It's not about being as real as you can be.

It's about, okay, what is the best decision that we can make and how can we make this work for the good of everybody as much as you can. And you can still put a little bit of coolness on top of it, but don't overdo it. You know what I'm saying? So what do you think's next for Crip, man? Man. Not just the album, but like I just see you doing more than just music. We working on it, though. I mean, I don't

I ain't decided on the whole getting into no movies and nothing like that, but if I do again, it's more scoring. I'm talking about on a revolutionary level. Oh, bruh, I'm waiting. I mean, and at the same time it's other people like Killer Mike, Talul revolutionary level oh bruh I'm waiting I mean and at the same time it's other people like Killer Mike Talul Kweli

David Banner that I could also look to and you know and talk to about this but it's one of those things where now it's gonna have to be a lot of talking

a lot of explaining a lot of just being on the ground you know I've been doing a lot of music in which it would be the background

or the theme music for a lot that's going on but I think now that I'm older and I've gotten to a point where I'm realizing, yeah, those are songs, but I got to get out and start talking to people, too. Absolutely. Yeah, I heard you on T.I.'s EP.

That's the homie. Yeah. That's good. I appreciate him putting me on that kind of record. And even Tip know what it is. Now it's like, man. Tip ain't getting no props for that Us or Else EP. Right. Hard. Going in. But it's because it's like, man. T-Pain getting no props for that Us or Else EP. Right.

Hard. Going in. But it's because it's socially conscious. Don't nobody, I mean, it's weird. Like, we claim to want revolution and want liberation, but then when our artists do what we want them to do, actually speak about something, we don't support it. I mean, well, it goes farther.

I mean, the artists, you do what you can to promote it, but it's also still up to a lot of people to play it. I mean, a radio record normally is a record that has a certain BPM and it feels a certain way and then go club. I mean, it would be more on us now to change what a radio record is and what gets played in the club or what can be acceptable and socially conscious and still jam. And introducing it to the people that normally don't listen to nothing but the radio.

Right. All right. You see birth of a nation yet? No, I haven't seen it yet. I just got the book. I ain't never got a gift since I came here. I appreciate that.

Normally, normally the first thing that happened is, Oh, what deaf jam at? So thank you brother for understanding. I didn't watch it yet. You gotta go see it. It only made 7 million last weekend.

We got to support that. Yeah. You ain't sitting and saying nothing. And I'm going to see that 13th too. You got to watch see it. It only made $7 million last weekend. We got to support that. Yeah, yeah. You ain't sitting sitting. And I'm going to see that 13th, too. You got to watch that. Yeah. Well, we appreciate you joining us.

Man, I appreciate y'all. As always, man. Any time, any time. You know, you're always welcome. No doubt. Y'all heard that. You heard that. Come on.

You talking to me today about Def Jam? I'm going to follow you. See, here you go. I ain't saying all. We still got love for everybody. We got love. Well, there's more tied to the sundial. All right, it's Big Crit.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Beyonce with a hold up. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building.

And Charlamagne is the only guest that I've seen in Charlemagne offers somebody tea or water. That's not the only guest I've ever offered tea or water. I actually have never seen him do that either. Would you like some tea? Would you like some water? But that's usually because I offer liquor. Why did you offer her some liquor? I just noticed the bar. I knew about the bar, but I didn't fully know about the bar.

But we have Lena Dunham here. Do you seem like a cognac drinker? I've never had cognac. Really? Do you drink? I drink like a quarter of a glass of wine, pass out, do things no one wants to talk about, throw up, and carry on. Like I'm the easiest

drunk in the world. Got you. You did homework for the show and you actually watched some interviews. I did. Who asked you what interviews did you enjoy? What did you like? Well, I just love watching you guys do your thing. And it's so much more about all of your connection than it is even about the guest. But two interviews I

particularly enjoyed the Post Malone interview. I don't know why. I just like, maybe it's like the angry college girl in me just likes seeing a couple people stick it to a long-haired white guy. That's just something that gives me pleasure. Okay. And then I watched the Brandy interview, which I've always been a massive Brandy fan since Moesha,

so I just liked how serious it got and how deep you got in there, although you said that it became a little tense. She was upset after. I will tell you this. I do not have a driver's license, and I'm a 30-year-old woman, never got it. I made the mistake of going down the Wikipedia rabbit hole,

celebrities who have killed people with their cars. And I was like, you know what? Why would you look that up? Like, what made you Google rap? I don't want to ever join this Wikipedia list, and I feel like I really would if I was given my license. So I'm going to continue this Uber lifestyle for as long as it'll happen. You know what?

Thank you. Thank you. Because your thoughts become things. So if you're constantly thinking about, I'm going to kill somebody in this car, I'm going to kill them in this car, you might end up killing somebody in the car. I don't think she thought she was going to kill somebody. She just said Because your thoughts become things. So if you're constantly thinking about, I'm going to kill somebody in this car, I'm going to kill somebody in this car, you might end up killing somebody in the car. I don't think she thought she was going to kill somebody.

She just said she didn't want to. I kind of knew I was going to kill somebody. But there has to be times when you go somewhere and it would be so convenient for you to get a rental. You need to be able to drive. It's an adult skill. And I don't want to be like a mom who can't drive my kids to the hospital,

but we'll get to that. Now let's talk about girls. Oh, yeah. Last season of Girls coming up. We just wrapped four days ago. I saw your very emotional letters that you were writing. Does it feel over? You know, we still have to edit it.

We still have to promote it. But I have to say that that last night I was weeping like a mother weeping baby. I couldn't believe it just because it's been my whole time. I started writing the show when I was 23. I'm 30 now. Those are all my, that's my family. Those are my best friends. So it felt like this crazy loss. And even though we can all like go out to dinner, we've formed

this incredible culture. And like I woke up the next day and I was like, what do I even do with myself? Who am I? Like I kind of walked out into the street like, what do I do when I'm not on this television show? I guess the answer is come to the breakfast club and bother you. Why do you feel like it had to be the last season though what do I do when I'm not on this television show? I guess the answer is come to the breakfast club and bother you. Why do you feel like it had to be the last season, though?

Because I felt like it could have continued on. It's a great question. I mean, I think it's like when people start a job so young, you have to give them room to grow. And I'm including myself, but I'm also thinking about all the actors that I work with. Like, their careers are taking off. Adam's in Star Wars.

Allison's starring in this movie that's going to be amazing. Jordan Peele's movie Get Out, which is coming out in February. They all have, I mean, Jemima's a painter. She has two kids. Everyone has passions. And, like, I want to let them grow and develop. And I felt like there was a certain point. I never wanted to become that show where everyone's like, yeah, I'm just going to my day job.

Like, we've had so much love for it every day that we've done it and i wanted to go out with us all still having that connection and that passion for what we do because i think it translates onto the screen and i feels like the moment where it's like we've kind of captured this magic energy between us so let's finish out the way we started and it was beautiful like at the end we all cried we all hugged we were all like you're my sister give it three more years and we all would have been like, don't ever look at me again. I can't believe you wore the same dress as me to this award show. We never got into that zone.

Now let's talk about black people. I'm in. When girls first started, you got a lot of controversy because they say you didn't have a lot of black faces on there. And as they said, especially in Brooklyn, where there's such a diverse amount of different races, they were like, why is there no black people? Do you think you've made up for that over the seasons?

I'm not going to say that I've made up for it, because I think that when I started the show, I was 23, and I literally, I'm half Jewish and half Christian. I wrote like two Jews and two Christians. Like, it was so close to home for me, and I was writing these characters who were all in some way extensions of myself.

Looking back, yes, but looking back I never want to see another poster that's for white girls. I don't think we need to live in a world where we have a poster that's for white girls. That being said, the fact is the experience of being a young black woman in Brooklyn is different than the experience of being a young white woman in Brooklyn. And I wanted to write

from a place of accuracy and passion and understanding. And so in the future And I wanted to write from a place of accuracy and passion and understanding. And so in the future, I would love to collaborate with and support women who want to tell their stories rather than attempt to sort of co-opt their stories so that I have the cast that looks great on a poster. I'm glad you said that because a lot of women of color feel like you ignore them

when it comes to like feminism. I see articles where they say you focus on feminism, but you mean equality for white women and not black women of color. That's definitely a criticism that I've gotten. And it's one of the main reasons, again, that I start that

Jenny Connor and I started Lenny Letter is just to have a diversity of voices and to say like, I've been given this incredible gift. She's been given this incredible gift to share what we have to say. So how can we spread that? And I have to say like over the six years of doing girls I've learned so much about intersectional feminism I mean it's like even though white women

can sometimes feel like a repressed minority there's an entire subsection of issues that we can't even relate to like the sense that you have to be scared when your child leaves the house like the sense that you don't know if they're going to be able to to, like the sense that you have to be scared when your child leaves the house, like the sense that you don't know if they're going to be able to come home, like the fact that people are assuming that you're not capable of doing a specific kind of job. And so every single... Oh, you've been having some conversations

with some black women, huh? Yeah, I mean, I have some really... I mean, I'm not trying to brag about it. Goodness gracious. Ladies and gentlemen, it's... Lina Dunham. Thank you. It's The Breakfast Club.

What an honor. Living the dream. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. What an honor. Living the dream. The Breakfast Club. That was Tory Lanez with Love. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building this morning.

Yes. I actually thought he was here before, but he wasn't. That's because my mother-in-law watches the show all the time. No, no, no, let me be clear. He confused you. All the time. He confused you with Jerry Springer, Steve.

I'm going to tell you why. You should be insulted. You know what? I was flying back from Las Vegas and the flight attendants were like, oh, you're from Jerry Springer,

you know? And I'm like, man, I've had my own show for 10 years now. You know who I was thinking? The Playboy guy. Oh, the guy that runs the Money Range.

Yes! No. He looks like him a little bit. You're talking about Dennis Hoff? That guy's like 80 years old. He does not look like Dennis Hoff. You are crazy.

Jesus. Hey, you want some moisturizer, Steve? Wow. I got some lotion. You need any of that? You want some? Steve Wilco. Man, I'm hungry.

God, man. Welcome to the show. Thank you. I can't blame you if you feel like leaving now. Jesus Christ. But congratulations on 10 years. 10 years. Thank you.

10 years. Officially the most successful security guard since Suge Knight. Black police officer. But congratulations on 10 years. 10 years. Officially the most successful security guard since Suge Knight. And I do feel like running people over, too. Now, you used to be a cop, right? Yeah. In Chicago. Yep. How was that?

Because that's probably one of the worst areas in the country right now. Yeah. I just came out of the Marines, so when I did it, I really enjoyed doing it. But then you just kind of get beaten down because, you know, people don't like the police. You're fighting all the time. And you don't make a lot of money, so it's just... Like I said, you get a gun and a badge,

you're 26 years old, you're going out catching a bad guy. It was fun. But after about seven or eight years, I just was like, nah. Oh, so you've done it all. You were the Marine. Yeah, I was in the Marines for six years. What does your wife and kids think? Well, my wife's my executive producer, so you've done it all. You was a Marine. Yeah, I was in the Marines for six years. What does your wife and kids think? Well, my wife's my executive producer. Oh, she's part.

You met her on Jerry Springer. Yeah, we met on Jerry Springer. Was it a fight scene? No. She was working. She walked on stage and I said, that's not a man, I'm going to marry her. That's romantic.

Why, does she look manly? That's a true story. No, because you never knew. We had a lot of transsexuals on the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're never sure, you know. But what if she used to be a man? What if she had used to be a man, but made a great...

I'd still marry her. She's pretty good. There we go. We see some strange stuff on Jay. Did you ever make that mistake before? Like you saw something hot and you... Well, you know what the strangest thing that ever happened in my mind, and you know, we had a lot of those situations, and we had

transsexuals on the show that were just absolutely gorgeous. But we had this one dude, he was a guy, and he got in a fight with another guy, and they start ripping each other's shirts off, and then the one guy just had one perfectly formed female breast. I mean, it was gorgeous.

And so if, like was gorgeous. So, we break for a commercial and we go backstage and I go, hey, dude, what's up with that? He goes, I was just born that way. And I go, you didn't let anybody know? He goes, well, I didn't think anybody would be interested. Like, who cares? You can make it the one-titty man in America.

And I asked him out for dinner and... And none of it was scripted? No asked him out for dinner. You went to dinner with him. And none of it was scripted? No. I mean, honest to God, if I brought in an uncensored tape and you watched it, it's so violent. And I was on stage. I'm on all those tapes. And even watching it from a different perspective, I said, man, this is crazy.

This is really nuts. This is really violent. Listen, when the midget's dating the hot stripper on the show, that might be a little scripted. But when we had these hillbillies on that were sleeping with each other's wives, you didn't have to provoke them. You know, they wanted the fight. Well, let's ask the million-dollar question.

Who's a better talk show host? Steve Wilkos or Jerry Springer? Uh-oh. I'm the best talk show host on TV, period. Okay, Steve. All right. And you can catch him every Monday at 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Channel 11. Congratulations, Steve Wilkos.

That was Beyonce with Sorry. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Hurricane Game. The Game. Crazy.

I'm just happy to be here. I'm really, really happy to see y'all. When you did the diss record to me, I'm like, damn, Game. We up here like, damn, Game is giving balls. I spent too much time at Daddy Daycare, man. And then, you know, people forget. I had to listen to that like 10 times to catch everything. I listened to that diss record at least five, six times.

Like, I always knew you could rap. There was no debate. But I'm like, nah, he's a rapper. There was no debate, but I'm like, nah, he's a rapper. In my group chat, my friends were like, did y'all hear it again as soon as it came out? I was in the car. I was like, put it on now, put it on now. You know what's crazy is that when I was writing

it in the studio. You wrote it in New York. I wrote it in New York, Quad Studios, and I couldn't wait to get here because I couldn't find a studio in South Carolina, and I was just like, I gotta get to New York because I had these, you I had everything you know bubbling inside and uh when I when I wrote it I felt like I felt the same feeling when I was writing 300 bars you know I'm saying so I knew that it was gonna be something when I was done now hold one of the dream chasers said you had a ghostwriter that's crazy because I'm always the guy that got a ghostwriter it's

like you know I'm saying every everybody say well 50 ghostwriter. It's like, you know what I'm saying? Everybody say, well, 50 wrote the first album and yada, yada. Well, 50 didn't help write the second album, and the second album still went multi-platinum and Game was dead. That's my favorite one. And, you know what I'm saying? Shout out to 50 because we chopped it up in L.A. and everything is all good.

And then, you know what I'm saying? They say, oh, well, he had a ghostwriter on the second album, and then I did 500 bars after that. It's always Game got a ghostwriter, man. I'm in the studio with my homies, you know what I'm saying, and I just got it off. You know what I'm saying? That was my feeling. You can't ghostwrite what Game says, you know what I'm saying? Because only I talk

and speak like that. Well, on Pest Control, was there anything that you originally had thought you would put in a song and said, nah, you know what, this might be too far? Too far? I'm just asking because it went far, but I'm just rolling. Hey, yo, she got a thing because there was a lot of things that I left out where I could have went really, really Charlemagne to God.

You know what I'm saying? I could have went there. You was pretty close. You went far, but I was like. You're talking about shaving somebody's mama's mustache. That was pretty, that was far. And sleeping with his sister. I don't like to do mamas, you know what I'm saying?

But I did go to the Gram. She did have a mustache, so I felt it was fair play. But like, what are some things that are off limits too far? I think kids are definitely off limits at all times. Kids, you know what I'm saying? They just, kids. Other than that, no one. No one?

Yeah, nobody. Now, everybody thinks this is a publicity stunt to sell 1992. I've sold 25 million albums. I don't understand how that's possible. I don't even care if 1992 sell or don't sell. For the last 15 years of my life, I've been getting money here, there, everywhere. I'm still rich. I'm not going broke ever.

It's not about album sales. Albums ain't really selling like they used to. You're not even getting that much money. It's all in your advance and then your back end, you know that gets chewed up by the label and you really don't ever see that. So it's not about selling albums. I'm not the label. I have a label.

They gotta make the money that they put out to produce the album and all of that. I'm not making this record so that the label can make all the money. You know what I'm saying? So it ain't about that with me. These reports that the police never even questioned you. It wasn't. See, the thing about that is there's not paperwork for talking to the police

and implicating someone. It ain't like I said, yo, he snitched on me, told the cops I had 15 bricks in the trunk and I'm facing 25 to life. No, they had conversations with police officers and implicating my crew and me about that. So when police came to my house the day before I left to come on tour, they were asking questions based on what was told to them by these cats. And there's no paperwork drawn up on that. So why would Meek tell?

Like, what did he have to do with the situation? I don't understand. I really, and I'm being 100% honest, I really don't understand why he did that. I don't understand. Weren't y'all cool? Y'all were cool, I thought. We were solid. What happened was, we was in the club, soon as I seen him, I hadn't seen him in a while, he was on the house arrest thing in

Philly or whatever, so I sent the bottle of rosé just from me to him over to him. You know what I'm saying? Like, welcome back, you know what I'm saying? You know, to freedom, just being able to move around. And, you know, I had told him when I was over there, I'm like? Like, welcome back, you know what I'm saying, you know, to freedom, just being able to move around. And, you know, I had told him when I was over there, I'm like, yo, cats been getting robbed in L.A. and they have. Like, cats been getting laid down for their jury.

And I told him. So I told him. Don't start back up, though. Yeah, so I told him that, you know, just watch your back and all that. And when you leave, don't wait till the club, you know what I'm saying, end it, like, you know, get out of here a little bit earlier. So he took my advice. He did that.

And after that, Sean Kingston got robbed. You know what I'm saying? Because he's one of those type of cats that's like, fool, you see Sean Kingston, that's like an easy mark. You know what I'm saying? So Sean Kingston got robbed. We get out the club. Fifteen minutes later, Sean Kingston called me, bro,

that's messed up. You got me robbed. Meek said that you told him that Cats was robbing and that he should go. And then all of a sudden I, bro, that's messed up. You got me robbed. Meek said that you told him that Katz was robbing and that he should go and then all of a sudden I get robbed and that's messed up. I said, look, I didn't get you robbed, dog. If you need help getting your jury back or you want to ask some questions, I'll help you.

Let me get off the phone with you, call Meek. I called Meek. Meek said, man, I ain't tell that fat nothing. So I said, let me get them both on three-way. Got them both on three-way. Kingston's saying you did tell me. Meek's saying you, you know what I'm saying? I didn't tell you. So I just hung up the phone them both on three-way. Got them both on three-way. Kingston saying, you did tell me. Me saying, you, you know what I'm saying? I didn't tell you. So I just hung up the phone, bro.

I didn't have time to argue with them. I let it go. You know what I'm saying? What if Meek would have just said, you know what? All I told them was, you did warn me to get out the club. You did warn her. Oh, good. It's like, you know, it's like this.

Let's just say that, you know, Charlamagne, my man, you know what I'm saying? We've been rocking for over 10 years. It's like, if you come to L.A. for BET weekend, I'll tell you, yo, Charlamagne, if you need anything, holla at me. Cat's been robbing. I'm my man. You know what I'm saying? We've been rocking for over 10 years. It's like, if you come to LA for BET weekend, I'll tell you, yo, Charlamagne, if you need anything, holla at me, Casper and Robin. I'm your man. This ain't your pocket. I got you. And right there in that same conversation is let's just say, I don't know, Chingy, right?

And then Chingy get robbed. I don't know. Why did you say Chingy? I don't know, man. I looked at my man's headphones. They look blingy. Chingy. So anyway, I leave.

Chingy get robbed. And then you tell Chingy, yo, Game just told me to watch out. And you got robbed. It's him. It would be like, why would my man? Why would you do that? Yeah, why would you rob Chingy? He don't have nothing.

Yeah, I mean, you know what I'm saying, man. Now, you took some shots and Nikki said you want to smash Nikki. I thought you and Nikki was cool. Me and Nikki don't become uncool because I want to smash. Nikki's whole thing is because people want to smash. That's what makes Nikki hot, you know what I'm saying, is that people are attracted to her and that she look good and she doing her thing and everybody,

if everybody wants to smash you, you're doing a good thing. That's not a diss. All right, we got more with the smash you, you're doing a good thing. That's not this. All right, we got more with the game when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Usher No Limit.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got the game in the building. Charlamagne? So when you see Sean Kingston on Instagram talking all tough and crazy. He's been calling everybody's phone trying to back down off of that. And the craziest part about it

is I'm on tour and I'm in New York. But when I get back home and I can really lay the board out and really play how I want to play, ain't nobody going to be doing all that. Nobody's going to be doing all that. And then you got people out there that are going to say, well, I thought you were an activist. I'm not Jesse Jackson. I don't got to be Jesse Jackson for these people. If it's

some Black Lives Matter stuff that need to be done and I get up and I serve my purpose and use my platform to do that, then I'm doing that. But if somebody, you know, ratting on me and implicating my name into some stuff when I already got tried, when I'm already facing, you know, time and all of that for some other stuff, then that angers me and I'm off that Black Lives Matter for a minute. I'm angry about this situation. I'm going to do me. I don't got to be Jesse Jackson for these people 100% of my life. I'm human.

I got feelings. It does seem like you had some reservations, though, after I saw your interview with TMZ. Right. So you felt conflicted. Yeah. Well, because I'm real. I do feel conflicted. You know what I'm saying?

I don't like what's happening with the, you know, two castes that got gunned down. I don't like that. But at the same time, I'm in my skin in my life and I have a problem that I'm trying to address and put my attention to. Usually I post and I put the positive stuff out there. I say, you know, Black Lives Matter. This is messed up. What are we going to do now? Here it goes again. But I don't want that mixed up with what's going on with this other situation because it's going to look crazy. So I just haven't said anything about it. It doesn't mean that I don't feel sad. I'm not saddened by two more brothers getting shot down by the police or none of that. It's just that I don't want it looking crazy, so I haven't voiced my opinion publicly, and I don't have to. Now, Meek also reached out to you as well. Did he reach out to you, too? No, Meek's been reaching out to me through my family on the 60 side, Nipsey Hussle and Big U.

His whole disposition is now he understands why it happened, as if he didn't know what Sean Kingston had did or said or whatever. You know what I mean? So at the end of the day, I'm going to keep it real. Meek is living in Los Angeles, in Beverly Hills, right? That's great. He's living in Beverly Hills because there might be a slight problem, a slight issue, you know, on the Philly side.

So he doesn't want that problem to go there. He know we got to come back home. Worst case scenario, he'll get ran back to Philly, but he just left Philly. There's no way he don't want to be. At the end of the day, it's hip-hop. You said something, he said something. It's all fair game.

Like, what's the problem? One thing you said, Wacky, I thought was interesting. You said that if Meek knew all this stuff about game beforehand, why do records with him? Why was you working with him? So then how do you bring it back around? How can y'all be cool again, knowing that that's how you're going to feel? It ain't about being cool. It's about just being able to be

at the same festival or in the same club, conducting your business, and being able to go in and out without it being a problem. You say that now. What was the conversation like with Fifth? You know what, man? That's been a long time coming.

I didn't expect it to go like that. I went over there. I expected him to, you know, be like, you know what I'm saying? I don't know. Like, not how it was. It was too cool. We chopped it up for about like 15, 20 minutes. It was no problem. Nobody got on edge on my side. Nobody got on edge on his side. It was too cool. We chopped it up for about like 15, 20 minutes. It was no problem.

Nobody got on edge on my side. Nobody got on edge on his side. I went over there. I walked straight through, you know what I'm saying, security. We chopped it up. We held a dap the whole time. You know what I'm saying? And we was like as close as I am to this mic.

That was defensive. We both went down swinging. We both went with our arms. Yeah, yeah. No, we both did. No, we definitely did that. And I know he was thinking like, yo, he could. Like, I don't know how his left is.

And I was thinking like, yo, if I feel like, you know what I'm saying? Let me tell you why it was bad. Because Monster's standing behind game, and I'm standing behind 50. Right. So either way it went. It would have been bad. It would have been bad. It was going, yeah.

You know, it's going to be a two-on-two if it go anywhere. But we chopped it. At the end of the day, me and him couldn't even explain to each other where it really went wrong. And it had been over 10 years, and it was like we couldn't even explain to each other what happened. You know what I'm saying? We just know that we was young and we was angry.

And, you know what I'm saying, shots got fired, but we it was all good. We chopped it up and that ain't necessarily say that it's going to be a genuine reunion or we going to do a song, but we solid and just like he said, so if me and Fifth is in the same club, my side ain't on edge, his side ain't on edge

and we just, you know, we in there. We co-existent. So where does the beef go from here? My problem was with one guy. It can stay between me and that guy. It don't got to be whack problem with his man or his cousin problem with my cousin. No, my problem is with one man. Let that man face me like a man, and let's figure it out.

And if that's a fight, cool. If we talk and no hands are thrown, that's cool. Let that man meet me, talk to me in my face, and let's work it out that way. You know what I'm saying? We can do it like that. It ain't got to be. You said he tried to call you.

You didn't answer his call. I was hot that day. Okay. I was hot that day. I was real hot that day. He did call my phone. I ain't have to Photoshop it. He didn't say it was Photoshop.

He said that he called. It's the game. It's the Burkett game. Good morning. Man, you know I love y'all. That was for free DJ Khal Game. Good morning. Man, you know I love y'all. That was for free, DJ Khaled. Drake, morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, Beanie Siegel. Yeah. Morning, sir. Beanie. Now, we've had some opinions about each other over the past month or so. I heard you on Tax Podcast. Yeah.

And then, you know, I was questioning you with your diss records, man. You sound like a hater lately, man. A hater? Yeah. How you say that? Because I feel like, you know, you put out two diss records, but then you was in the studio with me like eight days prior to the first diss record. And I'm like, if anybody else did that, I think you'd be saying that was a sucker move.

I don't think you qualified to even say I sound like a hater because you don't know all the particulars. So how you qualified to say I'm a hater? Hate on what and why? I'm just telling you based on what I see. But why do you say I'm a hater? Because, you know, everything is that used to be me and I used to be in that position. When did you ever hear me say that?

On Tax Podcast. Absolutely, you said that. You was like, yo, he can't rap better than me, which could be a fact. That used to be me. People come up to me all the time and say, when you was in that position, Beans, things was better. It wasn't like that. So that's a hater or me giving some advice to somebody to move a little different? Did you not also hear me say, I don't want you to make the same mistakes I did?

Mm-hmm. So is that me schooling somebody or sounding like a hater? That sounds like no disrespect, but then you disrespect them. Okay. I mean, just for me personally, when you say Meek not real, like, oh, Meek not a real person. He never been in the street. That's cool. But like eight days prior, he was in the studio with him.

Yeah, so. You didn't know that before that? Yeah. That's why I said that. You sitting back, like I told people, don't let the media, social media make up your mind. You going by from what you just saying. You don't know what conversations transpired before that. What events transpired before that. Events transpired before that.

And like I said before, I jump out the window with somebody who ain't gonna even walk out the door. You got to prove yourself, bro. That's what I meant by that. Like, if you got into something and you come and get me, yo, we got to go do this. Hold up.

Because I know what I'm gonna do. Got you. But why ride for somebody you don't think real? Because it's bigger. It's bigger than that particular person. It's for the city. I'm for my city in a whole. So he's a part of that.

A very important part of the city. It's not about me hating on me. I'm f***ing with me totally. But when you do something, man, it's like, man. So like I said before, I jump all the way out in the wind, because I know what I'm going to do on another level.

Like, it's two levels to this. It ain't about music. It's about that, and it's about that other s***. Exactly. You ain't qualified to ask me that question. You ain't qualified to get that answer, bro. Let's rewind it. The game came up here, and, you know, he did a diss record going at Meek.

And then we heard a Meek record and we heard you on the record. Yeah. So we thought that, I mean, I think the world thought that you were jumping with Meek and starting to go at Game. So what happened there? Why did you jump on that record? For my city. But you and Game were cool. Yeah.

Because it's music Come on man Just think about it Game and Meek It's music It's music It ain't not gonna transpire from that But then Game said

Yeah a few days later you called him and apologized No that's bullshit Call Whack on the phone Get him on the phone My question to them Is you standing on what you're saying. Like, I don't want to keep reiterating this because I think I clarified that. Once conversations was going back and I asking the brother,

yo, is this real? Because you can get straightened out on a different level. Right, right. So when you say stand down and, alright, well, go ahead, you handle that. But then when game come back, and it's like, yo, we gotta do this. No, we ain't gotta do shit.

We gotta handle that, bro. You know what I mean? You're dealing with two people. You're dealing with Mack and you're dealing with Beanie C. So when I see, oh, this is some Beanie C I can go in the booth and slaughter him up. Right. With the records being said, we've seen you at the console, and people assume that you were helping them write raps.

Did you ghostwrite any of those lyrics? A few of them, yeah. For both Meek and O'Malley? Yeah. Yeah. I'm just the type of phone like somebody I don't pretend to. That's just my— You're a character.

That's why. That's the truth, though. You're a character, baby. Life's too short to be wasting your time with suckers or people you think are suckers.

So why I'm here then is because I think you're a sucker. So I should be out, right? Yeah, I guess. Yeah, I wouldn't. I mean, that's me personally. I wouldn't sit in

and have a conversation with a sucker. Yeah, you'll sit here and you'll badge a little girl, a little mama until she cries. That's what you do. I'm a coward. Well, you talk me and and you'll bash a little girl, a little mama, until she cries. That's what you do.

I'm a coward. Well, you talk to me and you're talking to each other now. I tell you, I think you're an hypocrite. You can think what you want. And I think you'll be coming off as a hater sometime.

All right. You can think what you want, Faye. All right, well, we got more with Beanie Segal when we come back. Don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

That was Designed a Panda. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Designed a Panda. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Beanie Siegel is in the building. Now, how is it recording with one lung? It's hard. Is it true you got to stop in between songs?

In between bars sometimes. Man, my shit twisted a bit. But we can tell you, even with your voice, you know, the voice is not the same. Does that bother you at all? Because it's not

that same. No, that's why you ain't hear no music from me because I couldn't embrace that. I'm used to going in the booth and going for

four or five minutes straight, no breath and had a lot of weight on me at the time. It was rolling like this is my voice so I couldn't hear me because I'm used to me

sounding a certain way. I couldn't hear me because I'm used to me sounding a certain way I couldn't hear me and then you know I just had to embrace it like it is what it is this is how I sound because even now

when I hear you spit I have to get over the voice because it ain't the same voice I'm used to yeah and you're listening to the bars

it's the same bars but not the same voice yeah the concept of music ain't gonna never change like I've been through too much than the going never change like i've been through too much than the average person i have been through too much that's the other thing too you named about four ailments you were suffering from when you was on tax podcast does that not make you want to say

you know what maybe i need to calm down on the street thing no not at all because you wouldn't say that like you saying that because the incident that occurred, like I said, ain't nobody in their right mind going to stand straight in front of me and square off. You're going to catch an L. I do this. On either side. Fuck something up.

You've been making comments about the young rappers too. You don't think you should just let kids be kids? Because somebody let you be a kid once. Nah. Somebody need to talk to the kids though somebody need to get them to think about it i don't i don't rage the dreads that's women like men when men started doing that you had you had people in the back in the day like uh george clinton different is good it's good but when you get to the point where it's though, it's blatant, I shouldn't have to explain to my son why two

men kissing on TV. I shouldn't have to explain to my son why people wear men is wearing high heels. Would you want to explain that to your son? Nah, and I don't want to explain to my son why dudes on Instagram with guns either. We saw you on the ground

with two guns up. Like, feminization, criminalization, neither one is good. How that's criminalization? They was props. I mean, I hear you talk about the kids' clothes.

You did the state property clothing line. I remember an interview you did where you said they got the little compartments to hide your guns and hide your dope. Like, it could have...

That looks crazy. And when you think about it... Be quiet, Charlamagne. Shut up. What's up? What's up, man? What's up, man? So when is the new project coming out?

And are you staying independent? Are you signed? What's the future for Beanie Seagull? Man, I might do a double CD. How this music coming out. I'm gonna get back to the other music, though. I just had to load up a clip on that side, just in case.

It's hip-hop. So what happens if Meek calls you and be like, yo, Mac, what's up? Let's squash this. Put the phone call in. Let's sit down and talk about it. It's just that simple? It's that easy.

But in your mind, you still think he's not real. He's a sucker. You keep saying that. I'm not going to let you put words in my mouth. You keep saying that. I'm not going to let you put words in my mouth. You keep saying that. You said that. Regardless. I'm not putting words in your mouth. You said that. Regardless. Why you

keep harping on that? We answered that. So don't talk out in that because you want... If you're saying you want unity, stop keep doing that, man. Don't stop playing with me, man. It's confusing, my brother. It ain't confusing. It's confusing to you because you don't know the severity of the situation.

If you do a two-and-a-half-hour record. You don't know the severity of the situation, man. But it can't be that. It's too close to home. It's too close to home. We'll see. Like I said, I don't know. I might not pick that call up, but we'll see.

All right. I mean, that would be the better move. That'd be the smarter move for me. I don't want to walk a track in Samaya prison the rest of my life. Right. I don't want to do that. So that'd be what Beanie Segu should do.

Like I said, it got what Mack want to do, but what Beanie Segu want to do is just that. Well, I know I'm not qualified to speak on this, but you can understand how some people don't think what you're doing is all the way solid. You might not think that, and you're not qualified, dog. You're a right of no personality, man.

You don't come from my world. You don't come from... You wouldn't understand my world. You don't come from my world. You don't know nothing about that, man. Nah, I don't. Yeah, stop running your f***ing mouth, man. And I don't want to. Stop running your f***ing mouth. You shouldn't. from my world. You don't know nothing about that, man. Nah, I don't. Yeah. Stop running your f***ing mouth, man. And I don't want to.

Stop running your f***ing mouth. You shouldn't. It's dangerous. It's dangerous. No doubt. You're talking about somebody who went to war with police. It's dangerous. Attempting murders in the height of my career.

It's dangerous. You don't know nothing about that, man. No. You sit up here and your job is to play games. But play with something safe, man. Don't play with about that, man. No. You sit up here and your job is to play games. Play with something safe, man. Don't play with me. All right. Penny Siegel.

It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed one. So like a donkey. Keyhole.

Donkey of the day. The practice 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 goes to ex-Ohio State superstar football player Troy Smith. Now, Troy Smith got arrested for drunk driving, and cops found a little marijuana, a little weed in his car. Okay, now, drunk driving, driving while on drugs is stupid and selfish, and that by itself is donkey of the day worthy,

but TMZ Sports obtained the dash cam video shot by the police officers when they pulled over the Heisman Trophy winner, and this takes it to a whole other level. I always find it amusing when people are drunk because when I'm drunk, I don't think I'm impaired, meaning I know what's going on. I know what I'm saying. When I see people like Troy Smith, I question if I've ever really been drunk. Can we hear this traffic stop, please?

How you doing? Good, and yourself? I'm an officer, sir. What's that? I'm an officer, sir. What's that? I'm an officer. You're an officer? No, no, no. I'm great. How much alcohol you consume tonight?

None. Fair to say. What's your highest level of education? I graduated from Ohio State. Okay. My name is Troy Smith. Okay. College degree? I've graduated from Ohio State with a degree in bachelors. Okay. Fair to say you know the alphabet, sir?

Definitely, but that's what I'm trying to ask you. I just want to make sure you're not impaired, sir. Not at all. Okay. Can you recite the alphabet for me? Start at the letter C and stop at the letter W? I can definitely recite the ABCs from A to Z. From C to W. Can you do that?

C, D, E, F-G-H-I. I just want to go home. Okay, turn around and put your head on your back. Okay, where do we start? First of all, he said he had no alcohol. Lie. Did the lie detector test determine? Yes.

Second, he said, I'm officer. What does that even mean? What were you trying to say? Hi, officer. Yes. Second, he said, I'm officer. What does that even mean? What were you trying to say? Hi, officer. Yes, hi. Maybe you said, I'm an officer's relative. You had a fraternal order of police card. Maybe.

As soon as you said, I'm officer, the police knew you were drunk, okay? They were just going along with you to see how good this was going to get. And it got better. Because what exactly is a degree in bachelors? You have a degree in single men? What kind of profession do you start with that degree? Do you get eligible bachelors and hook them up with women who are looking for them? You have a degree in pimpology?

Huh? Now, in his defense, the police hit him with a trick question with that alphabet thing. Okay, starting at C is a little difficult, but just sound it off in your head. A, B, boom, then start at C, and you wouldn't have any problem. But, bro, you got stuck after I? Can I hear it? I need to hear it one more time. Can I hear it one more time, please?

Can you recite the alphabet for me? Start at the letter C and stop at the letter W? I can definitely recite the ABCs from A to Z. From C to W. Can you do that? C, D, E, F, G, H, I. I just want to go home. Damn.

Now, let's be clear. The cop was trying to be funny when he said recite the alphabet from C to W because CW was a black network that was the home of Dwayne's brothers' girlfriends in the game, okay? Y'all need to stay woke out here, all right? That cop knew what he was doing, okay? And you have to give the man, Troy, a little bit of props because he used the last letter he could remember in the alphabet to form a complete sentence. Play it one more time.

Just listen to what he did. This is genius. C-D-E-F-G-H G H I just want to go home okay he should get some points for that all right please give choice from if the biggest hee-haw please you gotta give him a little bit of props. He failed the field sobriety test, but that was a little bit of genius. The last letter you can remember is I, and then you just finish with a complete sentence, just want to go home.

Oh, round of applause to Troy Smith, man. My goodness. All right. That was amazing. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

Has anyone ever Yes 25,000 people Tell me every day Did you study up For that role Or Well you know

Issa sent me She hit me up When it was about To go on. And I was just like, I read the script and I was like, I need this in my life. Like, I know this chick. And so it was five auditions before I actually booked it. It was intense.

But like when I read it, plus I knew Issa, like I'd watch Awkward Black Girl. I was like, I get this voice. Like I know, I know this character. So I really wanted it. In my research of you, I found out you were a virgin. True story. And you a hoe on the show found out you were a virgin. True story. And you a hoe on the show? Okay, not a hoe.

She's not a hoe. Sexually free. Well, you're a virgin now? I'm a virgin now, yeah. Wow. See, I thought you was a celibate. My sister's a virgin, too. My sister out there,

she's a virgin, too. Oh, what? Yeah, she is. She is. Sage is a virgin also. Now, is that 100% virgin? Virgin, virgin. Yeah, you know how black people

No, actually, I don't. Really? No. You a lie. I promise you. Why do people know you a virgin? It comes out, like, I don't hide it. It's the same way people know.

It's a proud virgin. Why not? Yeah. The same way people know somebody had a one night stand. It's like, you can say that and I can say, that's amazing. Do you want to masturbate? No, I don't. Do you want to have sex?

I absolutely do. Really? I absolutely do. How do you know you want to have sex if you've never had it, Yvonne? I mean, that's like, really? Yvonne, really? Really?

I'm like, when I saw the Sani commercial and they got in the elevator and the dude opened up water and it was just all over her and I was like, maybe I need some design in my life. Like, I need that kind of water. Like, sex is used to sell toothpaste. Like, I know it's good. I'm sure that doing Insecure might make

you want to have sex because you have some great sex scenes. Molly be poppin'! Molly be poppin'! What's funny, it's like, it really does get in your spirit because when me and Jared, because we did like a bulk of our sex scenes on the same day, I remember going home like, who I got on my phone, though? It's like this dude was just like, even though we're in a simulator,

this dude was just on top of me, and I had to come up. So you still get wet. You get wet and everything. Oh, my gosh. You're still a human being. You're not a robot. I'm a person, not like a... I'm not a mannequin challenge.

I need you to shut up, Envy. This is a human being. She breathes as well. She pees. She defecates. She sweats. She gets her period. She hasn't had sex yet.

Jesus Christ. I want to know how. How can I tell my daughter? What do I tell my daughter? Because this is beautiful. Be Nigerian. Be a Nigerian has a lot to do with it. Personally, I had plans to have sex

by the time I turned 18. I knew the dude. I was like, it's on poppin'. It was like coming to America. You already knew who wife you was going to be? No, but like, I definitely knew. I had it figured out. And then I got to college when I was 17. Well, the reason I was on the way to 18, my mom's

a nurse. And so I was like, if I ever get pregnant, I don't need them talking to my mama. And she African. What do you mean pregnant? I was not. Like, I just, I just did not. It's not going to work. Well, you're going back to Nigeria today. Like, I was just like, I'm not going to be able to make it.

So I was like, when I turn 18, I'm going to be an adult. Like, you know, I'm going to call my mama. And then I got to college and got saved. Like, at 17. And I was like, when I turn 18, I'm gonna be an adult. Like, you know, I'm gonna call my mama. And then I got to college and got saved. Like, at 17. And I was like, okay, yeah, you know. See, most people I know who get saved, get saved after they've already had sex. Because I have some friends that are saved and they've become born again.

Especially after an STD. Anyway. So is it Christ, culture, or choice? What you mean? Culture or virgin? All three? Yeah, both. Like, I don't separate. Like, my religion and faith and all that is really important to me.

Now, when you meet a guy and you start dating, do you have to tell him, like, on the first date? No, because I don't think that's the first thing. I don't think that's the most important thing about me. It's not the most important thing. Now it is because they're insecure. Because they're insecure, people probably look at you and they think, I wonder if she is freaky and loose and mild. But does it make some guy say, well, I don't know. Well, see, the thing about it is, like, I'm very secure in myself.

Like, I know that everybody's not for me. So I don't go in there naive. Like, but you should still like me because I'm like, it's 2016. People popping off. Like, I know people want to do this. So I'm not, like, naive enough to be like, but I'm still a good person. It's just like, we have a nice date. If it comes up, then I'm like, oh, by the way, but I'm still a good person. It's just like we have a nice date. If it comes up, then I'm like, oh, by the way, yeah, no, it's just something.

I say it as casually as like, no, actually, I would like water instead of, you know, like I don't make a big deal. Some people make a big deal out of it. Like, well, you know, there's this thing. I have to talk to you about something. Yeah, I'm just like, it's not. How many guys bounced after you told them that? There were a couple. And I'm like, that's cool.

I'm on HBO now. That's why you it's not. How many guys bounced after you told her that? There were a couple, and I'm like, that's cool. I'm on HBO now. That's why you good wife material. You keep you as wife and just have a side chick until, you know, y'all grow into something else. That's the advice that you're going to give. Don't listen to him. Yeah, I'm just saying, the guys out there, this is great wife material. I got T-shirts.

I've got T-shirts that say, keeping it locked until I get that rock. You have a T-shirt? I have a T-shirt company. Come on. It's keeping it locked until I get that rock. Holl have a t-shirt? I have a t-shirt. Come on. It's keeping it locked till I get that rock. Holler at it at www.rockyourstance.com Wear that on the first date.

And it's real catchy or whatever. And like, the dude knew about all of this. And he was like, nah, you cool, cool, cool. Like, you know, we're just cool. We're chilling. One day he was like, but I mean, if we're going to be in a relationship, we got to have, like, compromises. And I was like, relationship? I'm not we're going to be in a relationship, we got to have like compromises. And I was like,

relationship? I'm not looking for us to be in a relationship. I hit him with Molly's line. I'm not looking for us to be in a relationship. But also like, this is a core,

it's a core value. We can compromise on what movie to see. We can compromise on if we want Thai food versus Chinese food. Sir, no sir. And like legitimately

ghosted me. And then, ghosted me. And then like three months later sent me a And then, ghosted me, and then three months later, sent me a card like, I'm sorry I fell out of your life when you wouldn't have sex with me. Was this after the first episode of Insecure? No.

Oh, okay. I've had some... Do they have cards that say that? No, he wrote that in the card. That's amazing. That's amazing. Hold my card. Get on that.

I'm sorry I fell out of your life when you wouldn't have sex with me. I am so much more impressed by your character now on HBO because I know you're really acting now and doing a great job. I have to, can I tell a funny story? Please.

The scene where Jared comes in, you know, he has the wine and we bypass the food and we go straight to it. He throw you on the wall? No, that was the first scene. The second scene is the doggy style scene.

Doggy style, okay. So in rehearsal, you know, I'm a dancer. I'm you know, I'm a dancer. I'm African, so I'm a dancer. I'm like, I know how to do whatever. You know, I'm just like, I keep a body roll in my front pocket, like just, you know, all day.

And so, you know, we're doing the scene in rehearsal, and I'm a little off beat, because, you know, I grew up with three brothers, so I'm like I take charge and so the lady Di who works in the wardrobe she was like she took me to the bathroom

she was like you gotta let the man leave so she like got behind me and I'm like practice it and she was like alright now go call him

in the bathroom I was like you want me to go call the dude she was like yeah so I called Langston who plays Jared I was like

so they said we were kind of like out of sync and off rhythm so do you want to practice in the bathroom so y'all practicing in the bathroom by yourself we practice but here's the thing so like we come out Jared, I was like, so they said we were kind of like out of sync and off rhythm. So do you want to practice? So y'all practicing the bathroom by yourself? Here's the thing. So like we come out and I'm like

in character. So I'm like, stay focused or whatever. I come out and it's like all the sound and camera dudes like, y'all all right? I was like, oh my God. And we just talked about everything. So by the time we got to set the next day, we were like really comfortable. What did your mom say about that? You know, God bless her.

I thought, I thought my mom was going to be in Nigeria. Not seeing nothing, right? Yeah, yeah. And she is in Nigeria. The problem is Insecure is now playing

on the continent. That's a blessing. Drop on a clothesline for that. That's a blessing. So your mom seen that and said what? She hasn't, so they're delayed.

So they're right now on episode two. You better warn them. Listen, Linda. That's going to be funny. I can just say, Yvonne, what is the meaning of all of this nonsense? This is not why we brought this to America. I'm like, Ma.

But she's not afraid that you got a nice, good-paying job. See, y'all, y'all. I know. Mom, if you listening, you be all right. All right, we got more with Miss Orgy when we come back. Yvonne Orgy, Molly from Insecure. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

That was Drake with Controller. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yeesh. Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now we have Molly from Insecure, Yvonne Orgy. Is it true you used to get bullied in high school? I got bullied from third grade to eighth grade.

For what? You seem like such a friend. Thank you. Well, when I came, because I was born in Nigeria, and when I got here, I had this thick accent. So, of course, you know you were called that. African booty scratcher. And then I had big lips, which now people pay for.

That's amazing, right? Yeah. And so they called me, like, soup coolers or fat cat from Rescue Rangers. Y'all remember Rescue Rangers? Yeah, from Chippendale. Chippendale. Rescue Rangers. So they would call me fat. I went to the theme song. I did. Soippin' down. Rescue Ranger. Yeah. So they would call me.

I went to the theme song. I did. So, yeah, so I got bullied. And here's the funny thing. Like, African parents don't care that you don't have friends. Like, they didn't bring you to America for you to have friends. Like, mama, friends. What?

Are you getting A's? That's all you need. Like, I'm like, no, I actually want people to talk to you when I'm eating. Okay, that's good. It doesn't matter to you. So my mother would always say, they're just jealous of you. All of them, they're just jealous of you. And one day she was just like, you know, one day you're going to work for them.

Or they're going to work for you. So in the heat of getting bullied, like, you know when it gets to the rim and it's about to boil off? We were in seventh grade, and I'll never forget it. The only thing that came out of me was like, one day you guys are all going to work for me. And I was like, wait, what? That accent probably scared the hell out of them white people.

But it was just like, we're in seventh grade. We don't even know what we want to be in life next year. So not only did I get clowned even more for that, like it was just like, I got home like, my, it didn't work. Did anybody ever tell you to calm down your Africanness or blackness the way they wanted you to tell that girl on that episode? Well, you know, because of the bullying, I became more American. So, like, I'm like, I talk like this.

When I'm back home, it's like my people. So, you're fronting. It's double consciousness. I'm mine. Everybody does. It's like a patuai that you have, too. Yeah. I just don't like turning down the blackness for white people. The problem is we love blackness and ratchetness and gettiness together. It's not the same thing.

It's not because there are different types of black. I told Issa, I was like, being on this show is a new type of black experience for me because I'm African and I grew up in the suburbs. And even though I went to school with black people, that was different. I was like, now being on this show, I'm seeing the sophisticated ratchet folks. Like, I'm seeing, like, a different element of blackness. And so people automatically assume, like, oh, you're black, you get it. It's like, no, there's different types of blackness.

I lived in Harlem. Shout out to Harlem. 134th. You better stop with that shit. Don't doubt that anymore. Stop with that shit. My shoulders just can't help it. And I love DMS.

Like, I don't know, like. He's from Yonkers. I don't. It doesn't matter. I've been throwing out all the time. You know how, like, you wear all your clothes on Christmas Day? Like, I got Nike up here. I got New Balance down here.

It's just like, I'm from Yonkers. I'm from Yonkers. It doesn't matter. Yo, I went to a DMS concert in 2014. I got my whole life. I literally thought I was like Dark Mad X. That's one of my favorite person to interview. Oh, my God.

Hey, yo. When I do that. And he's really like that. All the time. That's his regular talking about. Like, every time his album. And I don't know. Maybe I loved him because he always had a prayer on his album.

Dear God, my father. I come to you humbly. And it's like, oh, my God, he just needs a hug. He just really, he doesn't understand the drugs got him. There you go. He's in all the shape. He's in all the shape. And then the body roll.

They call me the body roll killer on that. Francis, that one's for you because I just keep a steady body roll. It works your core is what it does. You don't need to go to the gym. You just plant your feet and just for no reason. You don't body roll like a virgin, by the way. How does a virgin body roll?

A little tighter. I don't like him, but I love him. I love him, though. Thank you guys for watching. Y'all got renewed for a second season. Drop one of Kool Bums for that. Get at me, dog. Get at me.

Oh, oh, oh. Second season body roll. Bam, bam, bam. You got errands? You got errands? I got no errands. Yvonne, I love you guys so much. And we appreciate that she hit us on Twitter and then really came through the show.

Came through. I was like, yo, I'm in New York for two days. Let's make this happen. And thank you guys so much for wanting me to be on the show. Only two more episodes left every Sunday, 10.30. It gets gangster. It's uphill from here. It's just, it gets gangster with every, the last two.

Is Charlamagne gonna cry again? Like he did the last couple of episodes. Did you cry? I was so mad at Easton when she had sex with that boy in that studio. That's how I know I like the show because I'm emotionally invested. But here's the thing, though. She, like, came at somebody because after the dude who got elected president, after he got elected, she was on Twitter, and some dude wrote back,

cheater. She was like, if you don't shut your taking TV characters to heart, she was like, this is scripted shut your taking TV characters to heart stuff, she was like, this is scripted TV. Like what Marla said, it's just TV. She was like, if you don't shut your tail up, like this is not the time of plays. We got bigger fish to fry.

And the dude was just like, cheater, period. You know what's bad when you put a period in it? But forget all the other great things people were saying. They probably love you. You're so great. You're so popular. Somebody writes, cheater. I'm going to text her that today just to mess with her. Just to mess with her. They probably love you. You're so great. You're so positive. Somebody writes cheater. I'm going to text her that today just to mess with her. Just to mess with her.

Cheat. I'm going to tweet her. Cheater. Everybody tweet Issa Rae cheater. I love Issa. Everybody tweet Issa Rae hashtag cheater right now. Issa, no. My goodness.

I'm so sorry. Yvonne Orji is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Tory Lanez with Love. Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club.

She want it really bad, and I like it. She do have a song called Our Time that she just completed. I'm not mad at it now. So she can skip college. Oh, right. Right? Can I? I didn't get a chance to finish college.

And I know it was like, forget college, you know, pursue your dreams and everything. I was just adamant about it because even from when she was growing up, I was like, everyone's like, oh, put her in this and put her in that. Because I was bumping into all these agents and things like that. And I was like, nope, I didn't want to be a child star. I really didn't want that. And I was like, nope. I didn't want to be a child star. I really didn't want that. I mean, I feel like now she's came into her own and she's strong and she showed me this amazing

energy and she wanted that. So I'm not going to kill it or stop it. And I see the music that she is working on and I'm like, okay. That's a lot of pressure, Egypt. Your daddy tret, your mama pebbler. That's a lot of pressure. Can you handle that? I believe I can.

I've been preparing for it since I was a little girl, ever since I knew that I wanted to be an artist, really. So I think I can definitely handle it. And you're only 18 years old now. Yeah, she just turned 18. She actually was 60 when she got on Grown Up Hip Hop. Wow. You were the youngest.

You're the youngest one. You say that like y'all lied. Like that was a scam. Like y'all told her she was older to get on the show. She was 17. I were the youngest. You're the youngest one. You say that like y'all lied. Like, that was a scam. Like, y'all told her she was older to get on the show. She was 17. I did. No. I'm like, she's 17.

She'll be 18. Like, put her on. They don't check no paperwork or nothing. Right, right. Now, Mama, we know all the stuff that you've probably been through on tour, being a teen star. Are you fine with that for your daughter, going on tour, meeting guys? I'm on tour now now and it's crazy. There be formation around me

because I'm in the club so my crew be like, alright Pep, watching me. I know I will be there as much as I can or have somebody with her to replace me but I already know I know moms always say,

so far, so great. She is a good girl. She does encourage. It's like some people writing some music for her. They was like, I'm like, no cursing, no N-word.

And we were practicing one song that we love that someone wrote and was like, try to fix the N-word. I don't want you kind of saying it, even though we say it,

I say it, but... Did you ever say, Mama, y'all wrote Push It? But they still didn't curse. Y'all still didn't curse and push it. Just very sexual. We're talking about sex. There's no cursing in that.

That was in every ad about safe sex and talking about having that conversation. So she could have a sexual song then. But I'm not, I let her live a little. I'm not that in the beginning of my career

I was a little edgy, but compared to what now, please. Right, nothing. Oh, that's nothing. But what about I'll take your man? Right.

Ooh. But, ooh. Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. I mean, I can see her. I let her live. Honestly her. I let her live. Honestly, I do let her live.

That was just something that, you know, business, somehow online classes or something. Do you like your mom and dad's music, Gigi? You're a Naughty by Nature, Salt-N-Pepa fan? To be honest, since I've been around my mom most of my life, I've listened to more of her music. I love my dad's music. I just don't think I like actually listened to as much

as I should have but he is very talented and I love the way one of the most underrated by the way yeah like oh and that song everything's gonna be all right he didn't have his dad I never knew my dad right what's the next line that's a line that you cannot say nowadays did you ever ask your daddy what OPP was when you was a kid? No. I asked her actually. I said, Mom, what is OPP? She was just like,

she wouldn't tell me so I went on Google and I found out. I found out on Google. That is a song that, while you're here, I'm going to be honest. OPP?

You said, why I'm here? Yes. Wait, who was at the people's property? Because when that song first came out, I didn't put a face to the video. Like, there was nothing really, like, you know, social media.

Like, I was like, who are these people talking like this? Like, this rap was hot. It was crazy. And I kept trying to see who this group is, you know. And I was like, because I loved that song when I first heard it. I was like, oh, my God.
