That's what my podcast

It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

Starting point is 00:01:42 And Charlamagne Tha God. The Breakfast Club, bitches. The voice of the culture. People watch The Breakfast Club for light news and really be tuned in. It's one of my favorite shows to do. Just because y'all always keep it 100, y'all keep it real. They might not watch the news, but they're on Twitter. They're on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:02:00 They're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club. Get your ass up. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, TJ Envy. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Thursday. Yes, it's Thursday. Not just a regular Thursday either, God damn it. That's right.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Because we do this thing every year. Change for change. Yes, sir. That's right. When we raise money for a good cause, and this year's cause is the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. Well, let's talk about the history of it, first of all. We started it a couple years ago.
Starting point is 00:02:47 First year, we raised money for the Gathering for Justice movement. Correct. You know what I mean? I think that was, that's Harry Belafonte's organization. We ran up like, I don't know, 700-something thousand, I think it was? Seven, yeah, 700, yeah, close to 800,000. Yeah, and then the next year, we did Brandon Marshall's Project 375. Right.
Starting point is 00:03:03 And that is an organization that helps to eradicate the stigma around mental health. Yep, we raise about a quarter million. Something like that. Quarter million dollars. Yep, yep. And in this year, we're doing, like I said, the Thorogood Marshall College Fund, which helps students get to an HBCU. We help them with a scholarship, whether it's for books, whether it's for lodging, food,
Starting point is 00:03:20 or tuition. We're trying to help kids that need it to go to college. Each recipient gets a $5,000 scholarship. So there's multiple recipients and it's the nation's largest organization that exclusively represents the black college community. Correct. And we would never ask y'all to do something we haven't done
Starting point is 00:03:36 ourselves. We've all made, you know, healthy donations to HBCUs, right? Yep. You know, last month I gave a quarter million dollars to South Carolina State University. You know what I mean? So I'm just out here sowing my seeds. But my mother, that's my mother's alma mater. Right. So everybody has some type of connection to HBCU in some way, shape, or form.
Starting point is 00:03:52 Absolutely. You know? Absolutely. Of course, I went to Hampton University. I was there five years, actually. I was supposed to be there four years. But I did an extra year. I loved it so much. That's about right. You surprised you didn't do seven. I would have. You did an extra year. I definitely would have. You loved it so much. Yeah, I loved it so much I did an extra year. Like a lot of people do.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Okay. There's a lot of people out there that went to four and a half or five years. Yeah, no doubt. A lot of people, listen, a lot of people got relatives that went to HBCUs. They went to HBCUs themselves. Yes. You've slept with a guy or girl on a HBCU campus. You have a connection to a HBCU in some way, shape, or form.
Starting point is 00:04:23 I'm a big proponent of higher education also, so I just want to make sure that people who want to go to college have the opportunity to do so and have the finances and whatever support they need to make that happen. I agree, because I didn't go to college. You know what I mean? But, you know, a lot of y'all are not as special and as blessed as me.
Starting point is 00:04:39 So while you're trying to figure it out in life, you should go to school. Absolutely. So we're asking to help out. We're going to try to get people all day long to donate. Because we're here until midnight, goddammit. That's right. And you can text CHANGE. Text CHANGE to 52182.

Yes, and he's actually doing a screening at Howard University for it. Yes. We definitely got to lean on him. And he has a lot of bread. I don't know how much bread he got.
Starting point is 00:05:52 He got some back end from Black Panther? No, he didn't. Marvin would not do that. No, he didn't. But Marvin didn't do that. If he did, he'd be out of here. He wouldn't be up here
Starting point is 00:05:59 this morning. But I will say this. We're going to lean on my South Carolina bread. Absolutely. We have to. Yeah. Okay. Alright, now you got front page news ready, E? I guess so. I thought we were just doing change for
Starting point is 00:06:11 change stuff this morning, but the debates were on last night. That's right. We got to talk about the debates. So we do have to talk about that.

So we'll make sure we keep you guys updated as we continue with this Radiothon this morning. We still got to do a show.

Starting point is 00:06:58 I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I. King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong?
Starting point is 00:07:13 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 need help!
Starting point is 00:07:28 We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHe I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High.

Starting point is 00:08:33 Listen to post run high on the I heart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude,
Starting point is 00:09:22 and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like, grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
Starting point is 00:09:39 or wherever you get your podcasts. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, Philadelphia 76er Ben Simmons officially hit his first three of his
Starting point is 00:09:55 career. That is so crazy. That is crazy. Now, he's a point guard, shooting guard. Yeah, but it's wild that people talk about how Ben Simmons can't shoot, but I didn't know this was the first three-pointer of his career. The first three-pointer of his career. I saw people saying that last night. I was like, nah, that must be some social media nonsense.
Starting point is 00:10:09 I thought so, too. But no, this is his first three-pointer. He's a guard. He should be knocking them down. Well, I guess not. Can't shoot. Yeah, can't shoot. Well, they beat the Knicks last night.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Now, what else we talking about, Yeezy? Well, let's talk about the impeachment hearings that were public yesterday. Gordon Sondland, who was the most anticipated person, that everybody was waiting to hear what he had to say, and he is the United States ambassador to the European Union. He actually testified yesterday, and a lot of people are saying this was a turning point in the House impeachment inquiry with stunning testimony. Now, here's what he had to say as far as Donald Trump saying that he does not know him. President Trump was asked about you, and he said, I don't know him well.
Starting point is 00:10:46 I have not spoken to him much. This is not a man I know well. Is that true? It really depends on what you mean by know well. We are not close friends. No, we have a professional, cordial working relationship. And in that working relationship, he knows who you are? Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:01 And he has spoken to you often? What's often? Well, you said at least 20 times. Okay, if that's often, then it's often. I mean, yeah. Yeah, that's often. Now, if it's 20 times in 20 years, no. If it's 20 times in the last three, yes.
Starting point is 00:11:16 That's kind of often, my G. Now, people are saying this was the most important day of the House impeachment hearings. And when he was asked straight up, was there a quid pro quo, Sondland did respond. The answer is yes. OK, he said that's the question. And that's a simple question. And he said, I testified previously. The answer is yes. Here is Gordon Sondland on that Trump phone call with Ukraine. I finally called the president. I believe it was on the 9th of September. I can't find the records and they won't provide them to me. But I believe I just asked him an open-ended question, Mr. Chairman. What do you want from Ukraine?
Starting point is 00:11:51 I keep hearing all these different ideas and theories and this and that. What do you want? And it was a very short, abrupt conversation. He was not in a good mood. And he just said, I want nothing. I want nothing. I want nothing. I want no quid pro quo. Tell Zelensky to do the right thing. But that actually was in Donald Trump's favor right there. That's the one thing that Donald Trump has been saying clears him and
Starting point is 00:12:16 exonerates him. But, you know, prior to that, he did say, as I testified previously, there was a quid pro quo. But even though Donald Trump tried to say that afterward, everybody believes that there was. All right. Well, that is your front page news. Now, when we come back, we get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. This is what we need you to do. We lean in on everybody who calls in to get it off your chest today.
Starting point is 00:12:38 You can't call in to get it off your chest for free this morning. That's right. You got to donate. Text change to 52182. How can love to hear from you. How can we confirm that they've donated as they call in? We'll figure it out. We'll have our screeners do it. Yeah, we got the tracker. Yeah, we got the tracker to see if they really donated. We can see how much money going
Starting point is 00:12:53 in the pot real time. And by the way, none of the money goes to iHeart or the Breakfast Club. Nope. It goes straight to the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. That's right. 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. We want you to call up right now and text CHANGE to 52182. Tell us why you're donating.

We're going to be here until midnight raising money for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. None of the money goes to the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:24:38 None of the money goes to iHeart. It goes straight to the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. That's right. And you can text CHANGE to 52182 or bcchange4change.com. That's bcchange4change.com. And you can't lie to us because we can see it. We can see everything.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Okay, we can see it in real time when you donate. So don't be calling up here telling us you're making these big-ass donations. We can look right at the number and see. All right, well, let's get to the rumors. Let's find out who just purchased a $25 million home. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:25:13 So listen up. Okay. Well, looks like The Weeknd might have some money to donate. He just spent $25 million. Where? Yeah. He said where? In Beverly Hills.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Wow. Lord have mercy. Congratulations to him. Yes, he bought a penthouse bachelor pad. Wow. Lord have mercy. Congratulations to him. Yes, he bought a penthouse bachelor pad. They said he spent $25 million for it. It's on the top floor. It's not even a house. It's a penthouse.
Starting point is 00:25:32 That's a waste of money. It's four bedrooms. It's 8,200 square feet. That's big. You know how many colleges you can build in South Africa with $25 million? That is. Well, maybe he'll want to donate this morning for Change for Change. No, he won't.
Starting point is 00:25:44 I'm in everybody's pockets this morning. That's the last person that you want to call. He's going to call you and say, you just reported I bought a house for $25 million. I spent all my money, and I got a furnace this year. And Christmas around the corner. Anybody got time for you?
Starting point is 00:25:54 I would call it Weekend for Change for Change. Well, he's got four balconies, and he's got huge glass windows, great views of the city, the hills, the ocean. I would think if I'm from Toronto and I saw what Drake just built in Toronto, that's what I would be building my crib at. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Maybe this is just one of his houses. That's very true. Yeah, it's just one house. $25 million for a penthouse? I want some grass for that much. Word is bonked. Give me a backyard. All right, now another person, because I told you this morning,
Starting point is 00:26:21 we are in everybody's pockets. Jamie Foxx. He was at Brooklyn Chop House partying until 5 a.m., and they said he left a $2,000 tip on his food. Hit Jamie up. Yeah, hit Jamie up. He got it. Jamie got it. Jamie can donate the change for change.
Starting point is 00:26:34 He got it. Yeah, he definitely does. So let's see if we can get him to call in this morning. Also, Kanye West. All right. He's building an amphitheater on his ranch in Wyoming. We told y'all he bought another ranch for 14 million dollars. So he's been spending his money up.
Starting point is 00:26:48 But the only problem is the county is ordering Kanye to cease construction on his property because he didn't get a permit. So you got to get a permit. But he does have a 70,000 square foot amphitheater that he's planning to build. He submitted documents for that and there were construction crews and everything there. So until they get that permit right, he's got to stop. They're sticking him up. He's got to pay for that permit, and that's the reason why they're halting him. We're about to stick him up, too. Let's put some pressure on Kanye West this morning. Let's hit up Boo.
Starting point is 00:27:14 Let's hit up Def Jam. Let's shake Kanye West down. He ain't did nothing black since Jesus King came out, except for Big Boy interview. He ain't did nothing black since Jesus King came out. It just came out a week, two weeks ago. Two weeks ago. That's plenty enough time to do something black. Other people's pockets. Blacks in the Jesus King came out. It just came out a week, two weeks ago. Two weeks ago. That's plenty enough time to do something black. All right. Other people's pockets.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Whoa. Drop on the clues box for him. He's just showing his love and expressing his love for Kanye West this morning. He said, what up, boo? Wow. He said he's gay. So what? So what?
Starting point is 00:27:37 Love it. So what? Do what you got to do to get the money out of him. So what? Right, dude. All right. I'll tell you who else's pockets we're in right now. Damon Dash.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Now, originally, the story was he owed's pockets we're in right now. Damon Dash. Now, originally the story was he owed $400,000 in child support. Right. And he hadn't paid up, and that money did apparently gain a lot of interest, and those debts have gotten a lot bigger. But yesterday he actually went and took care of both warrants. He went into a Manhattan courthouse. He paid off about a million dollars to clear one warrant, and then he tried to go to another courthouse to deal with the
Starting point is 00:28:05 other one. That's when he ended up getting cuffed and processed because the officers escorted him to the Bronx to take care of the rest of his bill. So all in all, he spent over a million dollars to clear his name. So the fact that he could just drop that money all in one day like that means that he can definitely donate
Starting point is 00:28:21 to Change for Change. Drop on the clues box for Dame Dash. First of all, why wasn't that the headline? Why wasn't the headline Dame Dash pays off child support instead of Dame Dash arrested for unpaid child support? That's what Dame said yesterday. Dame Dash arrested over, I saw TMZ report that page, things like Dame and Dash arrested over
Starting point is 00:28:38 for over $400,000 in unpaid child support. I think probably at first it got updated because people just saw him getting arrested and didn't know. But why would they arrest him if he's coming to pay? Well, he went to one courthouse to pay one, and then he had to pay the other one. So there were two of them. Yeah, he had a warrant.
Starting point is 00:28:51 So after he paid the first one, they knew he was in court, clearly. And then they went and cuffed him. They said he paid like over a million dollars yesterday. He should have sent his lawyer then. I'd have sent my lawyer to pay the money if I knew y'all was going to arrest me. You know what I'm saying? Because it just looks bad. It's a bad look.
Starting point is 00:29:04 You put the handcuffs on me, you walk me in front of the media, but you know I'm actually paying my child support? Like, that's whack. Like, why do that to him? Well, Dame, if you're listening, we know you just paid that million dollars. I know the network is doing well right now. We need a little change, Dame. Just a little bit. A little bit, Dame. The fact that you're walking around with over a million dollars, okay?
Starting point is 00:29:20 Dame, I'm out there working. Y'all sleep. Let's go. Alright, so you guys can also donate as well. Again, today is Change for Change. All you have to do is text CHANGE to 52182, or you can go to bcchange4change.com, bcchange4change.com. All right. Now, next hour, we have a couple people stopping through.
Starting point is 00:29:39 We have Michael Rubin, partner for the 76ers. He's rich, rich. He's rich, rich. Are we going to try to stick him up? Did the 76ers win last night? Yeah, they beat the New York Knicks. Ben Simmons hit his first three-pointer. Yeah, Ben Simmons hit his first three.
Starting point is 00:29:49 And next hour, also, Chadwick Boseman will be joining us. Oh, I'm leaning on him. We got two people we're leaning on. God damn it. That's right. We're going to try to get this win. We're going to lean on Michael Rubin. We're leaning on Chadwick Boseman, damn it.
Starting point is 00:29:59 God, you're right. What's wrong with you, man? What do you keep doing? Because I got excited because you talk about Michael Rubin and Charles Bowman. Michael Rubin, we can lean on him, okay? He's a white ally. You excited right now. Put that white guilt on him, tell him it's for a black college.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Woo! All right. And then we got front page news. Next, what are we talking about, Yee? The debates were last night, so we got to discuss the Democratic debates. We'll tell you who we thought came out pretty good, and we'll give you some highlights. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:30:28 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Change for change. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Today's Change for Change. We will be here until midnight.
Starting point is 00:30:39 We're raising money for the Thorogood Marshall College Fund, which helps African-American students get to HBCU. We help them with $5,000 scholarships. That goes to lodging. It goes to books. It goes to education. It goes to a bunch of things. Y'all been to college before.
Starting point is 00:30:54 I haven't. But it goes to whatever you would use it for in college. Absolutely. That's all. Tuition. It's cash for that ass. Tuition. A little bit of everything.
Starting point is 00:31:01 All right. Well, let's get some front page news. Where we starting, Ye? Well, we are going to talk about these Democratic debates that happened last night. It's the fifth Democratic debate of the 2020 presidential campaign. And Cory Booker was coming at Joe Biden, and that was basically on his stance on legalizing marijuana. Here's what he said. This week, I hear him literally say that I don't think we should legalize marijuana.
Starting point is 00:31:23 I thought you might have been high when you said it. And let me tell you, because marijuana, marijuana, marijuana in our country is already legal for privileged people. And it's one, the war on drugs has been a war on black and brown people. Listen, that was a hard bar, dropping the clues bonds with Cory Booker. And it's going to be very hard to vote for Joe Biden if he becomes a Democratic nominee. Like, my God, earlier this week you said you were
Starting point is 00:31:51 against the legalization of weed, but last night in the debates in front of millions, you flipped on that. Well, here's what Joe Biden had to say. I think we should decriminalize marijuana, period. And I think everyone, anyone who has a record should be let out of jail. Their record's expunged. It'd be completely zeroed out. But I think everyone, anyone who has a record should be let out of jail. Their records expunged and be completely zeroed out. But I do think it makes sense based on data that we should study what the long term effects are for the use of marijuana.
Starting point is 00:32:16 That's all it is. Listen, man, he seems he seems like the early signs of dementia. Like he said something earlier in the week and he's changing his mind. That's what that seems. Then he goes on to talk about how much support he gets from the black community. I'm part of that Obama coalition. I come out of the black community in terms of my support. If you notice, I have more people supporting me
Starting point is 00:32:35 in the black community that have announced for me because they know me. They know who I am. Three former chairs of the black caucus. The only African-American woman woman that ever been elected to the united states senate a whole range of people my point is true so my point is my point is one of the reasons i was picked to be vice president was because of my relationship long-standing relationship with the black community.
Starting point is 00:33:06 All right, Kamala Harris is also on that stage, and she was talking about... Real quick, though, you can't say you were supportive about the only African-American woman that had ever been elected to the U.S. Senate, and you're standing right by another one. Right, everybody was like, huh? Like, what? Come on, bro.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I'm telling you, he's... All right, now, in addition to that, since we're talking about Kamala Harris, she had some things to say about Tulsi Gabbard. Now, first, she was talking about Democrats taking the black vote for granted. For too long, I think candidates have taken for granted constituencies that have been the backbone of the Democratic Party. But, you know, at some point, folks get tired of just saying, oh, you know, thank me for showing up and say, well, show up for me. Because when black women are three to four times more likely to die in connection with childbirth
Starting point is 00:33:51 in America, when the sons of black women will die because of gun violence more than any other cause of death, the question has to be where you've been and what are you going to do? That's right. That's a fact. That's why black people should not be just giving up their vote to anyone who doesn't have a black agenda. They always want black people to vote out of fear. Stop all that. Vote for the person that's actually doing something. Toasty Gabbard would agree with you. Now, she had said our Democratic Party, unfortunately, is not the party that is of, by, and for the people.
Starting point is 00:34:19 And when Kamala Harris was asked to respond to those remarks, here's what she said. It's unfortunate that we have someone on the stage who is attempting to be the Democratic nominee for president of the United States, who during the Obama administration spent four years full time on Fox News criticizing President Obama. When Donald Trump was elected, not even sworn in, buddied up to Steve Bannon to get a meeting with Donald Trump in the Trump Tower. Listen, should we lean on Senator Harris' campaign this morning? Yes, we should. Senator Harris went to HBCU. She went to Howard University.
Starting point is 00:34:53 She went to Howard. Yes, we should. Should I hit up Maya and Senator Harris and see what's happening in these streets? Absolutely. See what they got, a little change. All right. Well, that's front page news. And shout out to my dad who's listening.
Starting point is 00:35:03 It actually is my cousin, Jason Yee, who donated. So thank you to my cousin. He donated $20. Shout out to Jason Yee. I know there's a lot of Yees. I just realized that is my cousin. I would hit up Joe Biden's campaign, but they'll probably try to pay us in Harriet Tubman 20s. Shut up. You know what I'm saying? Shut up. All right. When we come back, Michael
Starting point is 00:35:19 Rubin will be joining us. We're about to lean on this white man. Of course, he's the partner of the 76ers and we're going to talk to him today. Of course, it's Change for Change, and we need you to go in your pocket if you can. Give what you can. It doesn't matter if it's 5, 10, 15, 20, whatever it may be. It could be a dollar, but please donate if you can. Text CHANGE to 52182 or just hit up the website bcchange4change.com.
Starting point is 00:35:42 We'll be back with Michael Ruben. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now we got a special guest hanging out with us right now, Michael Rubin.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Now, Michael Rubin, today is something that we do. It's called Change for Change, right? We own this radio every morning from 6 a.m. to midnight, and we do this every year. The first year, we did it for what organization, Charlemagne? We did it for the Gathering for Justice Movement, which is Harry Belafonte's organization, and we did it for Brandon Marshall's Project 357,
Starting point is 00:36:18 because they're helping to eradicate the stigma around mental health. That's right. So this year, we're doing it for the Thorogood Marshall College Fund, which helps students trying to go to HBCUs. We give them a scholarship to help with their books, help with their living arrangements, and all that stuff. And we know that you ride black people, right? So not
Starting point is 00:36:33 to go in your pocket, but we know you got deep pockets. So we're just asking for a little, you know, donation or something, if possible. I'd be happy to. Okay, now, not to put no pressure on you, but isn't your job to put pressure on me? Yes. Shalom, I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:36:48 How much... A couple weeks ago, you donated to our HBCU. How much did you get? I did. I gave... I can't remember. I gave a quarter million to South Carolina State University. $250,000.
Starting point is 00:36:56 $250,000. That's not... That's... A guy we know named Jay-Z always says to fight different. You know what I mean? I'm familiar with that slogan. Feel like fighting this morning, Michael? Listen. I'm ready to fight. I'm ready to fight different. You know what I mean? I'm familiar with that slogan. Feel like fighting this morning, Michael? Listen, I'm ready to fight.
Starting point is 00:37:07 I'm ready to fight. We're not asking for a number, but we like it. I'm going to actually be really helpful to you guys. Actually, we care about education a lot. One of the things, I don't know if you guys saw, Meek and I have been talking a lot about education. We're actually going to commit, between Meek and I in Pennsylvania, millions of dollars to Pennsylvania schools this year.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Are we going to stick Meek up too? Go ahead. Yeah. So we're actually, that's something we're going to do in 2019. We've got, there's a great tax incentive program. We're going to,
Starting point is 00:37:31 I think several million dollars that Meek and I together are going to put into Pennsylvania schools in 2019. So we're excited about that. But I'd love to help. And you've got me committed. Okay. All right. He didn't say how much,
Starting point is 00:37:41 but we'll find out later. But we appreciate you for doing it. I'll tell you off there. Okay. How's that? That's fine. And we'll bring it back on in. We tell you off there. Okay. How's that? That's fine. And we'll bring it back on in. We got to put pressure on the rappers and everybody else.
Starting point is 00:37:49 That's all. Because I'm happy. It's a good day. We need $100,000 to help out. How's that for you? Michael! Biggest donation we got so far. I wasn't expecting that.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Fight different. Fight different, Michael. Fight, fight, fight, Michael. Now, here's the thing I need from you guys. I want you to pressure everyone to help. So, one by one. You guys got to increase your skills, increase the pressure. I want you guys to go for the hard clothes.

All right. for 100 grand, what you going to do? $100,000. Wow. Thank you, Michael. My pleasure. I might wear a Sixers jersey now. Alright. Hold on. If you guys all become Sixers fans,

I've been wearing Allen Iverson jerseys for 20 years. Hold on. If you guys wear Sixers jerseys from this point for the rest of the season, every show, we'll go to 125. I have no problem doing it.

We'll let you guys pick them up. We'll get you all different styles. We'll make you guys look good. I don't have a problem doing that.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I can do that. What about not just jerseys? What about just merch, period? Like the jackets? That's even fair. You see, I'm a fair guy. Yes, that's cool. Sixers product once a week until the season's over.

Yeah, and I know his 76 is one last night so he's excited. The 125 is based on whether or not we wear the jerseys every day, right? He sent me a jersey previously when we had a bet last year that didn't go well for me.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Well, you got to wear it once a week. Once a week? Yes, you got to wear it once a week. It's for the students, for the kids to go to school and help them out. Yeah, you can do that. What if the Nets agree to give more than that for us to not wear it? I doubt it. Wait, wait, wait. The Nets ain't even sending any players up here yet.
Starting point is 00:40:30 We're already working on that. It's actually being scheduled right now. No, because they didn't bid everywhere else. Now, if the Nets could do that, the Nets could pay us not to wear a 76 jersey. I'm with that. I'm with that. Put them and get them on the phone. You can't do that. You can't commit to Michael Rubin telling them you're going to wear the jersey
Starting point is 00:40:46 when somebody else pay you. You tell, you say. You know Cash moves everything around him. This is for a good cause. It don't matter. We're giving back his $25,000. I guess you're going to have a Brooklyn Nets day and a Philadelphia 36th day, but you don't care no way.

Starting point is 00:43:01 Today is Change for Change. Now, during Change for Change, we raise money for different causes. Like the first one we did, who do we raise money for, Charlemagne? We raise money for the Gathering for Justice Movement, which was Harry Belafonte's organization. And last year we raised money for Project 357,
Starting point is 00:43:17 as Brandon Marshall's organization, to eradicate the stigma around mental health. So now this year we're raising money for all the HBCUs, for African Americans to be able to go to school.

Starting point is 00:43:30 to help with lodging, to help with food, to help with everything. So today is the day we're going to be on the radio from 6 a.m. to midnight. And we're asking all our celebrity friends,
Starting point is 00:43:37 could they possibly donate anything if possible for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund? Now, not to put any stress on you, but how much did you donate a couple weeks ago? I donated a quarter million dollars to South Carolina State University.
Starting point is 00:43:52 We're not saying you gotta do that, but that's the bar, you know. Just $250,000. You're a multi-millionaire, Maury. You still ride the train. You're frugal like me.

We are happy that he dug a little deeper. We are happy that he donated. He didn't have to. Don't act like you didn't think he was going to dig a little deeper. No, I didn't actually.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Oh, you didn't think he was going to give nothing, huh? I thought it was going to be like more like two, three thousand. I'm happy for that. No, thank you so much to Tamari for donating.

Starting point is 00:47:28 It's right by NJPAC, New Jersey Performing Arts Center. And yeah, the units can be leased with prices ranging from $1,800 for a studio, $1,950 for a one-bedroom, and $2,700 for a two-bedroom. They also have parking available for an additional $150 a month. That's good.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Drop on the Clues Bonds for Shaquille O'Neal. I love Newark. I know a lot of people, you might hear that and be like, well, that was expensive. That's actually low-income housing in these areas. Like, that is actually great. And it's a brand-new facility. It looks beautiful. Well, Shaq is $1,800 a month.
Starting point is 00:47:59 That's the starting point. For a studio. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. So he's excited about it. No, no, no. You know, Shaq said excited about it. I wouldn't call it low income. No, no, no. You know, Shaq said it's historic. He said it's going to continue to beautify our city.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Yes. So right now, the tower is officially called 50 Rector Park. I love Newark, man. They said $1,800 for a studio? Yeah. Oh, yeah, no, that's not low income. My bad. Invest in Newark.
Starting point is 00:48:19 I don't think that's low income. I thought he said two. I thought it was a three family. It has rooftop cabanas. Yeah, yeah. Oh, no. It has grills. It has a gym, amenities room, yeah. Oh, no. It has grills. It has a gym, amenities room, all of those things.
Starting point is 00:48:27 800 for a studio is about low income. That's the building for what Newark is about to be. Correct. Because Newark is transforming. You know what I mean? Correct, correct, correct. So that's the building that in five years you'll be like, oh, okay. That's why he put this here.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Now, clearly Shaq has a lot of money, as you all know. I mean, he's a restaurateur, a franchise owner, an investor. He currently owns a Krispy Kreme Donuts franchise in Atlanta. He used to own 27 Five Guys Burgers and Fries franchises. He's the founder and owner of Big Chicken, which is a casual fried chicken restaurant in Vegas. And he also has Shaquille's, a fine dining restaurant in L.A., which I did go to when I was in L.A. He's also a minority owner of the Sacramento Kings NBA franchise. Who got Shaq's number?
Starting point is 00:49:04 Somebody hit Shaq number up Does anybody have Shaq's number? We'll call him up He owns a lot of Atlantic City I think he owns like over 50 townhomes in Atlantic City So he's got it And he could use a tax write off Alright another person we should reach out to
Starting point is 00:49:20 Is Post Malone He actually just re-upped with Crocs And you know Listen his previous Crocs. And, you know, listen, his previous Crocs deal, the fourth installment. That is so white. Can it get any whiter? It sold out in just minutes.
Starting point is 00:49:31 Nope. Just so you know. So the Posty Crocs collab will hit select retailers and the Crocs online shop on December 10th at 10 a.m. So anybody that wants to get those Post Malone Crocs
Starting point is 00:49:42 can put that on their calendar and get ready for that. Emi, you want me to get my Post Malone Crocs can put that on their calendar and get ready for that. Emmy, you want me to get my hookup to get them for you? I'll pass. Yeah, I'm cool on the Post Malone Crocs. I'm good. But listen, his previous three collaborations all sold out in minutes, so there's clearly a demand for this.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Well, you know what? Also, just recently, he left a $1,000 tip at Mel's Drive-In. He was there going to eat. He was taking pictures with fans at the restaurant and everything, and then left a $1,000 tip. So I know he's got it. Yeah, Post Malone Crocs sound like they come with their own sweat already. Little beard stains on them. Oh my God. Let me see what they're going for. Hold on. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Let me see what they're going for. Look what they look like. I'm StockX. $600 on StockX. See? $70 for this color. You might want to invest. The perfect shoe to go $175. Perfect shoe to go mudding in. Listen, the first time I ever met Bill Cosby, I interviewed him when I was at Sirius, and he had on a pair of Crocs. I just remember that he was walking around in a Crocs early on.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah, that's going to really get the sales of Crocs up. Yeah, that'll do it. And I was like, oh. That's helping. That'll do it. I think that might have been the first time I ever saw somebody wearing Crocs. Yeah, I'll pass. All right.
Starting point is 00:50:44 So, well, a lot of people are buying it. They're selling out. I'm sure this is going to sell out in minutes also. And let's get started talking about the Grammys. Lizzo leads the 2020 Grammy. She has eight nominations. Congratulations. Anyone have Lizzo's number?
Starting point is 00:50:57 No. Because she can definitely donate to Change for Change. She's getting all kinds of accolades right now. Salute to Lizzo. Drama, you got a number? She hates me. No, she actually likes you. So she hates me. No, she actually likes you. So she hates me. No, she called Drama F-Boy.
Starting point is 00:51:07 And she was right. Billie Eilish and Little Nas X both have six nominations each. And the three of them are all first-time Grammy nominees. So Lizzo, Billie Eilish, Little Nas X. Now, I do want to point out somebody that is nominated, right? And he was very excited to get nominated. And I know,
Starting point is 00:51:24 Envy, you can get in touch with him. Who's that? Offset. Here's what he had to say when he got nominated. He posted this on his Instagram. Yes, sir, man. Since I got Grammy nominated, I wanted to reward myself with a Ferrari. 812 Superfast. He bought an 812 Ferrari.
Starting point is 00:51:39 How much does that run? Anywhere from about $425 to $550 depending on the options. All right, so Offset bought himself a new Ferrari, so I know right now he can donate to Chains for Chains. Who else is nominated? I saw the baby nominated. And by the way, Alicia Keys is going to be hosting, just so you know.
Starting point is 00:51:58 I saw 21 Savage nominated. Yes, Her was nominated. Post Malone and Sway Lee for Sunflower, they were nominated. The Grammys missed a few in the rap category. Yes, Rhapsody. Rhapsody, Eve, definitely got robbed. Conceptually and sonically, that's the best rap album of the year to me. Freddie Gibbs' Bandana should have been nominated. Well, let's talk about what

We'd have to send that back. When we come back, Chadwick Boseman will be joining us. Of course, he went to Howard University.
Starting point is 00:56:18 He has a new movie coming out this week. It's called 21 Bridges. Gotta shake Chadwick down. Chadwick is from Anderson, South Carolina. I gotta put the pressure on him. You know what I mean? All right, so we'll kick it with him when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Of course, today is Change for Change. We're raising money for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. And today, we have a special guest in the building, Chadwick Boseman. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for letting me in.
Starting point is 00:56:43 You're welcome. You got 21 Bridges coming. That's right. This is your first film not associated with Black Panthers in 2017. You feel any pressure? Nah, nah, I feel completely free. Okay. You know, it's just good to be doing something different.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Glad I have that, you know what I'm saying? But I'm glad to be able to step into a different genre and style and play. And you're playing a cop, so how are we going to feel about you after this? I'm glad to be able to step into a different genre and style and play. And you're playing a cop, so how are we going to feel about you after this? Or while we're watching you? Are we going to like you or are we going to not like you? How do you feel about cops? It depends. There's some good cops and some bad cops.
Starting point is 00:57:17 I don't know the history, you know. There's some good cops and some bad cops. So what kind of cop are you? I'm a cop. You're a cop. I think the job comes with, you know, you're dealing with situations where you're judging things. And as a judge, you know, sometimes you do right, you do wrong. It's not a normal cop, though. You're hunting down people who kill cops.
Starting point is 00:57:39 That's right. Yes. That's right. That's never pleasant. But we don't know what happens at the end. They don't show us the whole thing in the trailer. He finally catches the guy. They're in the train, but we don't know what happens at the end. They don't show us the whole thing in the trailer. He finally catches the guy. They're in the train, but we don't know what happens,
Starting point is 00:57:48 what he does out of that. Does he understand the guy's story? Did you just give the whole movie away? I don't know. I mean, that's in the trailer. I don't know. We don't know what happens. Hey, I think we must be telling people too much in these trailers.
Starting point is 00:57:59 You know, it's a situation where everybody's a little dirty. That's the best. I don't want to give anything away. Everybody has, in the job, I'm not saying the job requires them to break the law, but in the midst of judging the law, that's part of it. It's sort of biblical. It's a book called Judges. So that's the reality of the job.
Starting point is 00:58:19 And I think we try to explore it in the most real way we can. And, you know, I was with real cops the entire time. From pre-production on, you know, I trained with a LAPD officer. And then we were in New York doing ride-alongs with NYPD detectives. How was that? It was scarier at first. As a black man, you know, you get in the back of the police car and you're like. It's not a good place to be. It's not feel be, you know, but then they're talking to you.
Starting point is 00:58:48 You're like, OK, yeah, there's no cage. I'm good. And they're human beings. So did it change your opinion of cops? It changed my opinion of the people, not of the institution. But at the same time, it made me understand why, you know, why people are the way they are. There are people trying to do the right thing, and there are people that are not. And, you know, they were honest about that. How much did you have to think about doing this role?
Starting point is 00:59:14 Was it one of those things because was it a problem? Like, damn, do I really want to play a cop right now with everything that's going on? Yeah, no, I had to think about it. People love me because of Black Panther. It was like, did you have to think about that? Well, see, yeah, that's a question, but then that's the reason to do it you know what i'm saying because you know one you you have to get out of your box you have to get out of your way your ego
Starting point is 00:59:33 um because it ain't about being loved and you know compassion is everything stepping inside the shoes of somebody that you may normally not agree with is a good thing to explore that life for a second. We need that. We need people trying to understand both sides of a thing in order to make the right decision for everybody. Plus, Black Panther 2 is coming in 2022, so they'll love you again.
Starting point is 00:59:56 They'll love you again. She said again. They're never going to love you for nothing else. Listen, I asked y'all, I don't know how I don't know. How do you feel? Like, I see how you feel. Listen, you're described as a trigger-happy cop in the description.
Starting point is 01:00:12 I don't like trigger-happy cops. Yeah, but the situations in the movie, I can tell you this because it's in the trailer. You know, his father was killed. And so the character has this need to get close to where the wrong is. He's been trying to find who did this. Well, he knows who did it, but he's been trying to right that wrong and find justice. So he gets closer to evil than normal. So he does pull his trigger more.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Right. Like, it's not necessarily that he's killing. But it's a good question because that's when you ask that question, did you have to think about it? You know, as I'm reading, I'm like, I don't know. Because if he's killing us for no reason in the street, stop or frisk, whatever, then I have a problem with that. Was there any lingering trauma from this role that you had to unpack then?
Starting point is 01:01:02 After the filming? No. It's interesting because usually I have to have a sort of exorcist. You know, but I think with this, because the whole thing is sort of like that, it didn't require that. You know, for me, the first time we went
Starting point is 01:01:18 to the gun range and I was like, oh, I'm using this gun and I had issues with it. So through the course of it, it actually helped me as opposed to me having to get rid of something. I wonder about coincidence, right? Because I'm using this gun and I had issues with it. So through the course of it, it actually helped me as opposed to me having to get rid of something. I wonder about coincidence, right? Because I'm a conspiracy theorist.
Starting point is 01:01:30 So you got this movie coming out, which is about a man hunting cops. I mean, hunting people for killing cops. And Queen of Slim comes out next week, which is about two black people
Starting point is 01:01:38 on the run for killing a cop. Right. Did Hollywood do that on purpose? That's why I love you, man. It's funny to hear because that's a lot of times people do feel like Hollywood is a conspiracy. Sometimes it might be. This is just because here's the difference. We did this.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Lena is spearheading her thing. There's no white person behind her telling her to do that. You know what I'm saying? And with this, I'm a producer on this film. So it wouldn't get made if I didn't want to get made. Alright, we got more with Chadwick Boseman when we come back. Also, we're asking you to donate
Starting point is 01:02:18 and you can donate by texting CHANGE to 52182 or visit bcchangeforchange.com. We're raising money for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. So please donate and we got more

You can't do that while you're raising money for all HBCUs. You can't call one of them fake to do something and shit on the HBCUs. We've been here since 6 a.m. We're leaving tonight at midnight.
Starting point is 01:03:06 We're trying to raise anything we possibly can. And if you're out there listening, you can text change to 52182. So there's no number. You can get $10. But, you know, I just want to tell what some of the people have donated. Oh, gosh. Charlamagne, you donated to South Carolina, which is HBCU. South Carolina State.
Starting point is 01:03:23 You know, my mom went there. You know, we South Carolina people over here. How much did you Carolina State, you know, my mom went there. We South Carolina people over here. How much did you donate? I can't remember the number you donated. Last month I gave a cool quarter million. $250,000. No pressure. Right. Wakanda is coming back. What the f*** are you talking about? Wakanda.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Black Panther's coming back shortly. This movie's amazing. You just produced this new movie. Something. Okay. I'm not going to go to 250 because I got some other stuff I need to do. It's the holiday season. We understand.
Starting point is 01:03:50 It's the holiday season. I know, but I'm saying like, yeah. You don't have to say a number. Yeah, but. Huh? You don't have to say a number. Don't say a number? You can.
Starting point is 01:03:57 No, you can say a number. You can say a number. You don't have to. Are y'all working together or not? We were working together. Good cop, bad cop. She's working against y'all, right? I'm saying, I don't want you to feel pressure to say a number unless you want to. We were working against you. Back up, back up. She was working against us. She was like, she's working against y'all right now.
Starting point is 01:04:07 I'm saying, I don't want you to feel pressure to say a number unless you want to. No, we want them to feel pressure. Black people are visual people. If they hear you say a number, they'll be inspired. So let me just tell you something. So Maury Povich. That's not visual. Maury, he gave $15,000. Right.
Starting point is 01:04:16 Michael Rubin, partner of the 76ers. Yeah. He gave $100,000. Yeah. But then he threw in another $25,000 if we wear a Sixers jersey once a week. Just give us 10% of whatever Black Panther made. We'll take that. No.
Starting point is 01:04:34 It's like, this is crazy. I feel the energy over here, the energy over here. Go ahead. Keep going, keep going. That's all we've done. That was our pitch. That's it. That was our pitch.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Okay. That was our spill. So do I have to was our pitch. Okay. That was our spill. So do I have to give it to a specific school? Or can I give it to... No, you just can't give it to Howard, man. You give it to the Thurgood Marshall Foundation. But you just said South Carolina State. Well, I did this.
Starting point is 01:04:55 I did that on my own. That was a direct... Oh, okay, okay. So we, you know... Oh, so y'all threw that in. That ain't have nothing to do with it. That ain't have nothing to do with it. It sounded good.

Until somebody in my college donates $101,000. This is going to go viral. You're in Flippin, New Jersey. Everything sold is sold.

You played Thurgood Marshall. I'm just, that was the Thurgood Marshall college for you. That ain't got nothing to do with my money. That's right.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Speaking of that, do you think your roles in other movies were appreciated more after Black Panther? Like the Thurgood Marshall, like the Jackie Robinson? I hope so. To be honest with you, you hope that people appreciate the roles that you do. That is actually part of the body of work. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:06:49 Because for me, I'm trying to look for different stuff. And, you know, if you watch something new, then I feel like you should be able to appreciate the old stuff because you saw, oh, that's a different part of him. Did you ever feel like Black Panther would overshadow the rest
Starting point is 01:07:05 of your career? Because it's hard. No. You got to get sick of hearing Wakanda. No. Wakanda forever. No, I want Wakanda.

You can text CHANGE to 52182, and you can donate as well. And right now, we're over a quarter million dollars, baby. We're over $256,000. That is huge.
Starting point is 01:08:47 It's only been three hours. Yes, we got a long way to go. I'm happy about this because I gave a quarter million to South Carolina State University last month. So I'm glad that in the first few hours, we've already gotten more than I gave. That's right. And we need some of the labels, too. All the labels that come up here all the time. We need some of them labels to donate for a good cause, man. Why don't
Starting point is 01:09:06 you? Where's Def Jam at? Where's Atlantic? Is there still record labels that exist? Oh, Quality Control. Who's the Quality Control? Quality Control, Def Jam, Atlantic. Oh, we got Lean On The Baby. Arnold Taylor and all them. The Baby. Yep.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Who else we thinking? I don't know. Why can't there be no record labels off the top of my head no more? I can't think of any. We said Atlantic. Interscope still exists? Yeah, Interscope still exists. Are you kidding me? 300 exists.
Starting point is 01:09:32 I don't know. I'm not into that business like y'all. All right. Anyway, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Carmelo. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee On The Breakfast Club
Starting point is 01:09:46 Yes, so how happy are you To see Carmelo Playing in the NBA again? I'm happy for him Well, he did post A message to his fans He called the last 18 months An emotional rollercoaster
Starting point is 01:09:58 Here's what he said The last year and a half Man, it's just been Like an emotional rollercoaster All of this started On a Wednesday I got the call Wednesday Thought about it Last year and a half, man, has just been like an emotional roller coaster. All of this started on a Wednesday. I got the call Wednesday, thought about it. Then Thursday, that Thursday was a commitment, which led to the next day, which was a Friday,
Starting point is 01:10:18 which they wanted me to come and get right into it. Let me just get three, four days of just like getting back into it mentally and emotionally. I had, you know, almost detached myself from the game a little bit just to give myself some sanity and not think about it. But once I got that call, the challenge was for me to just flip that back mentally. Dropping the clues bombs with Carmelo Anthony. How y'all fun on Carmelo? I don't know, but I'm glad he's back in the league. The man can still give you 13 to 15 points a game, man.
Starting point is 01:10:43 All right. Now let's talk about, and by the way, he's playing again. Y'all should hit him up for some money. Carmelo? For change. By the way, even when Carmelo wasn't playing, Carmelo was never hurting for no money. Of course he wasn't hurting, but I'm saying now that this is front and center in the news that he's back on the team, this is a
Starting point is 01:10:58 great time to be like, come on, let's do this. Alright, now another person you might want to hit up for some money, because maybe he'll get some, is Jussie Smollett. He is suing Chicago for maliciously pursuing a case against him, and that's because of the claims that he was a victim of a racist and homophobic attack earlier this year. He's filing that countersuit for malicious prosecution. He alleges that the city officials were out to pin the blame on him for the alleged assault that left his life and reputation in tatters.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Now, Basib has these court papers, and he's saying that the cops spread lies about him in the media and coerced his alleged attackers into implicating him as a mastermind of that attack. He also says that the Ansu Dario brothers' statements were false and self-serving, and he said the Chicago PD closed the case and slapped him with 16 criminal charges, even though they had statements from two witnesses that corroborated his version of events. Jussie don't know when to quit, huh? Does Jussie realize nobody's thinking about this anymore but him and the Chicago PD?
Starting point is 01:11:53 And as long as he keeps doing like this, he keeps bringing the story back up? Well, I think they were already suing him, so now he's counter-suing them. Right. And shout out to Jussie. You know, Jussie donated our first year doing this and he didn't call in. He didn't advertise it. He donated quietly. He just did it on the low. His name just popped up. We just happened to see his name and see he donated. I don't know if he'll do that now.
Starting point is 01:12:12 Are we sure the money wasn't counterfeit? Was the money real? But we do appreciate each and every donation that comes our way. Yes, we do. Jussie, if you want to donate, feel free. Too late now. What do you mean too late? Just made fun of him. Tell him how to donate. He might. Yes, we do. Jussie, if you want to donate, feel free. Too late now. What do you mean too late? Just made fun of him.
Starting point is 01:12:26 Tell him how to donate. He might. Yes, text CHANGE to 52182 or visit bcchangeforchange.com. You know what I mean? All dollars are welcome. There you go. As long as they're real. No counterfeit money.
