Well, I was licensed already in Vegas.

Starting point is 00:03:07 It's a pretty hard test. I'm getting my license. Yeah, I recommend that to everybody, especially while you're home during the pandemic. You can take the class online.

Starting point is 00:04:08 Antoine, get it off your chest, bro. I feel like on the radio, I'm going to piss y'all off. We have more of a responsibility to talk about common sense when we get pulled over possibly. In America, we don't have rights to black people. So I don't like hearing us talking about our amendments to us, our God gets right. If the top lady get off the car, get out the car. A lot of times I see a lot of hostility coming from the person being poor and old.
Starting point is 00:04:32 And I feel like we keep dying so why don't you just get out the car? Why don't you just shut up? Why don't you just provide the information given? Because they're undefeated. A lot of times people do follow instructions. And it still goes left.
Starting point is 00:04:47 I haven't seen that, Angela. Angela, I haven't seen that, if I'm honest. Philando Castile was following instructions. He was like, I have a registered gun. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. A lot of times, there's hostility coming from those people. He wasn't hostile. Every time I'm looking, I can always see where we went wrong.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Damn the cops. they ain't ****. They're going to do what they do. They're going to kill us. So my bag is just comply. What? Yes. Put your hand behind your back. You got to do it.
Starting point is 00:05:12 I mean, my brother. I don't see nothing where we be right. My brother, I respect you. You're already upset. Hey, my brother, I respect your opinion. But I mean, when you look at people like Elijah McClain, 23 years old, you know, and you look at people like Philando Castileile that kind of proves you wrong but i i do i'm upset that you know you've gotten to the point in your life where you're so defeated that you don't even feel like the constitution
Starting point is 00:05:32 or the laws of the land apply to you somebody who gets pulled over a lot there's some i agree with that nah but somebody get pulled over a lot man you have the right to ask why you pulling me over you just you just ain't gotta buckle down and be like, okay, you pulled me over. I'm going to get out the car, put my hand. No. Why are you pulling me over? I did nothing wrong. My registration is right.
Starting point is 00:05:51 My insurance is right. My license is not. But hear me out. Hear me out. Listen to this. When they pull us over, right, we go through all of that, and then we're the ones that end up there. Let the people who's fighting to fight, fight to fight. We don't have that right.
Starting point is 00:06:04 We don't have the right. We don't have the right. We don't have the right to be together. My brother, my brother, my brother, don't let these, my brother, don't let these white supremacists beat you down so much that you don't even feel
Starting point is 00:06:13 like you a citizen in this country. I'm not letting them beat me down. Yes, you are. I have to get home to my daughter. I have to get home to my wife. No, I get what you're saying. I want to get home to my family too, but what's right is right.
Starting point is 00:06:21 And I'm not going to just, just lay down on my knees while you just beat me over the head. No, I want to know why you pulling me over. I'm pulling you over because I seen the air freshening in your window. No, tell me why the f*** you pulling me over. And by the way, by the way, King,
Starting point is 00:06:34 exactly. But listen, King, your way has not been proven correct. Your way has not been proven correct. We've seen black people get killed every which way you try to handle it, whether you comply, don't comply, walking away in handcuffs on the ground. So your way has not been proven right, sir.
Starting point is 00:06:53 But don't get it twisted. I will say this. If my son gets pulled over, I tell him to shut the F up and just comply. I do tell my son that because I want my son to go back. No, but I do tell my son that because I'm scared for my son. And my dad told me the same thing. I'm with you. But that don't mean that cop still may not violate just run.
Starting point is 00:07:12 That's just the truth of the matter. You can follow all the instructions. You can still get killed. You don't take care of that at the traffic stop. You can't fight no case if you did. You really think we won't? You just said we don't have no rights, but you think we went in court. OK, brother. Have a good day. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:07:29 But I understand what he's saying, because my dad used to tell me that all the time. My dad would just be like, you shut the F up and make it home. You can't win on the street with that police officer. But at least when you make it home, you have an opportunity to win in court. My dad used to say the same thing. Yeah, I'm not telling him to curse cops out and fight cops. All I'm simply saying is you do have rights as a black person in this country. You do.
Starting point is 00:07:49 But as somebody that gets pulled over all the time, I want to know why you're pulling me over. I'm not just going to assume. No, why? Tell me why. And then when you get an attitude, I get an attitude. But you know why you ask those questions? Because you know that you have rights. The Constitution is supposed to work for all of us. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong?

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.

Starting point is 00:18:20 bounce but we got an icon a legend on the line with us right now. Ice Cube, what's up, King? Yeah, yeah. What's happening with you, man? Bless Black and highly favorite. I know you're like 15 days late, man, but happy belated, brother. Oh, thank you, man. Don't worry about it, man. I take it all year. You know what I'm saying? Give it to me all year. Absolutely. Absolutely. Now you got some
Starting point is 00:18:40 iconic things happening with the Big Three. It's season four, right? Because you guys canceled last year obviously yeah last year the pandemic you know hit us pretty hard so we had to we had to cancel which was the right thing to do because we got to make our decisions about the season like in february march so february march of 2020 was nobody knew what the summer would hold, what the year would hold. Would this be a one-year
Starting point is 00:19:10 lockdown, two-year lockdown? What? So the smart thing to do is to cancel the season. But we're back this year. Now, did you have any doubts, Cube, about a season for the Big Three after COVID? No doubts. I got a great team that helps me with this league.
Starting point is 00:19:26 And we was dedicated and committed to surviving. You know, most leagues don't even survive till the fourth year, to be honest, you know. So I think UFC is the only new league that came out and survived past four years. So we're just happy to be here. We start July 10th, you know, on CBS. If you don't catch the games on CBS, catch us on Triller or Fight TV.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Six games, it's going down. Yeah, I love the growth of the Big 3, too, how you guys started. And every year, it's like you add on more and more to it because you guys did the deal with Triller now. So can you explain how the deal with Triller works for people who don't know? Because we've seen the deal with Triller and Versus and Swizz and Timbaland really had to break that down. So can you break down Big 3 and Triller? Well, you know, when we play, you know, it's six games for the price of one.
Starting point is 00:20:18 So it's an afternoon of great hoops and sports. So with CBS, you know, we usually have about two hours on CBS, so we can get in a couple of games there. But then the rest of the games will be on Triller and Fight TV, and they'll be free of charge. So tell us who's playing this season, too, because, you know, things switch up all the time. So who do we have playing? Oh, man, we got Nick Young.
Starting point is 00:20:43 He in the league. Swaggy P. You know, we got playing? Oh, man, we got Nick Young. He in the league. Swaggy P. You know, we got the old favorites, of course, Joe Johnson, Nate Robinson, Coutinho Mobley, Rashard Lewis. We got new people like Jared Jack. We got Leonardo Barbosa in the league. Mahmoud Abdul-Raouf, Reggie Evans,
Starting point is 00:21:03 Drew Gooden, Mario Chalmers, Will Bynum, Maurice Spates. I mean, the names go on and on and on and on. What did you think about Nate Robinson's fight versus Jake Paul? Did you watch it? Yeah, I watched it. It didn't turn out too good for my man, Nate. You know, but I respect Nate for even getting in the ring.
Starting point is 00:21:23 You know, anybody can talk you know you win some you lose some but uh as long as you're down to get some you'll be all right so you know he did his thing boxing ain't his sport you know i like to see how dude doing the basketball court again yes i'm saying nate should get a little revenge boy to get on the court with him for a little one-on-one, I think Nate will smoke him. Now, you're an L.A. icon, Cube, L.A. staple, L.A. native. So when we think L.A., we think of Cube.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Do you find yourself rooting for the Clippers at all? No, not at all. You know what I mean? I don't root for the Dippers. They kind of bogarted their way into the city years ago, you know, like a cousin that come over and spend the night and never go home. That's what they like. You know, they never went home.
Starting point is 00:22:17 And then tried to take the city at some point. Like, they had this live city going on with Blake Griffin and all this, and they tried to take the city, and that's where they went wrong with me. You cannot have L.A. L.A. belongs to the Lakers. L.A. belongs to the Dodgers. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:36 Everybody else is on lease. So you definitely wouldn't mind having former Clippers players in the Big 3. That's a good thing. Oh, we welcome all NBA players to the Big 3. When you join the Big 3, man, you know, everything's forgiven. You know, we got some Clippers. I mean, some Clippers won the championship with Coutinho Mobley
Starting point is 00:22:54 and Q Richardson, you know. So they was big-time Clippers, and they won the ring for power in 2018. So I got love for you when you cross the line and come into the big three. Now, just as important as the players is also the commentators. So who can we look forward to seeing? Just let us know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:23:14 We added John Sally to the mix. Oh, wow. Rap Report was great for us. And so, you know, we felt like let's bring in somebody that played in the NBA, that know, we felt like let's bring in somebody that played in the NBA, that know these guys personal, and see if we can get some more entertainment out of that. So, you know, we're excited. You know, Rappaport, he actually had a movie he had to do.
Starting point is 00:23:36 So we're happy to have John Sally. But we also got Lisa Leslie going to do some games when she's not. Yes, I love that. Which is great. You know, we got Avery Johnson, who's a former NBA player. He did some games for us in 2019, so he's great. So, you know, we're just trying to bring that top-level talent, you know, not only on the court but off the court
Starting point is 00:24:01 because it's what people are used to. People want the best, and that's what we're bringing them. All right, we got more with Ice Cube when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still kicking it with ice cube charlamagne now cube does ice cube Ice Cube, shall we? Now, Q, does Ice Cube have any interest in doing Versus? Not really. It's a great idea, great concept, but there's nothing that's like on my bucket list, wish list,
Starting point is 00:24:34 or nothing like that. It started off, you know, on the adversary tip, and then they showed a lot of love in Versus. So I like how it's evolved because you know guys shouldn't be really going up there putting catalog against catalog that they're right there to me and what it's about it's about showing love so I would have did it a little different you know my version of verses would have been I'll pull somebody out there like Chuck D, a public enemy or something, and I play all the songs
Starting point is 00:25:07 I love from him, and he play all the songs he love from me. You know what I'm saying? And it's a love fest. But it's not something that I'm thinking about doing. If it come about, who knows? I ain't saying yeah, I ain't saying no. That's interesting you say that because I always said if Cube wanted
Starting point is 00:25:27 to do a versus, I think it should be Cube versus LL or Cube versus Public Enemy. Because of the celebration aspect, I don't know. I just think that would be dope. Cube and LL or Cube and Public Enemy? Man, both of those are my heroes, man. You know, those are my OGs in the game.
Starting point is 00:25:43 I can't see myself going up against them and they, you know, I just love them too much. You know, those are my OGs in the game. I can't see myself going up against them. And they, you know, I just love them too much. You know, they the reason I do this. So, I don't know. You never know, man. Which was your favorite one to watch? I love the Snoop DMX one. I love the
Starting point is 00:25:59 Too Short E40 one. That was funny as hell. Just because, you know, I'm doing a project. Mount Westmore. 40-mile Westmore and short. So to see them get up there and get down, you know, I had a ball with that. When is Mount Westmore dropping? Oh, you know, we getting our ducks in a row.
Starting point is 00:26:18 You know, we did Fight Club, Triller. We just got a lot of opportunities coming at us. And we had to kind of sift through them and see which was the best route. So I believe we done figured it out. So we're getting cocked and loaded. We're getting our visuals together because when we hit, we want to keep rolling. Did Dre do any production on it?
Starting point is 00:26:41 I think Dre helped with this one song that Fred Reg did, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure. He rapped on it for sure. He definitely on the verse, but I don't know if he gave us any production. Cube, I think tomorrow it'll be the one-year anniversary of the contract, the Black America.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Have you heard from anyone in the Biden administration about it? Yeah, we heard from Cedric Richmond a couple of times. You know, we're still waiting for a follow up on some things that we were trying to get set up. You know, we're doing a lot of stuff behind the scenes, you know, out of the public's eye because things get misconstrued. And, you know, people chime in when they don't know what they're talking about. So the first half of the contract of Black America, when the election was going on, was really focused on the public sector. Now, you know, since the election, we've been focused on
Starting point is 00:27:36 the private sector. So we got some interesting things we're going to announce as soon as they, you know, fully develop. You know, I just wanted to take it out of all the noise that was being made and really try to get some concrete things done and not just all this talk and fuss and trolling back and forth. I just wanted to make sure that we was actually either making progress or not so I could tell the people what's really going on. So there is progress being made. Yeah, I see some progress being made.
Starting point is 00:28:06 But, you know, the rubber's still got to meet the road. You know, what I learned with these companies, they talk a good game. They like to put out releases talking about what they're doing and how much money they are contributing and the programs of diversity. And it's all press release stuff. When you really look into it they don't do nothing so we just got to make sure the ones that saying they doing something you know we trying to you know look behind the curtain make sure they really doing it or or find the people
Starting point is 00:28:38 that's benefiting from these programs because you know they quit to put out a press release talking about how how much they're doing for the community. And we don't see the results. So we're sick of that game, too. Word. Well, when the big three start? July 10th on CBS, 1230 Eastern, 930 Pacific. And all day we're doing it. Every Saturday we're doing it on CBS. So every Saturday, all summer long, hang out with the big three. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:29:10 I'm definitely making it to New Orleans for some of those games. I'm already in talks to try to make that happen with your publicist. So just so you know, I'll be out there supporting like always. Come on out. You know, you supported us year one when we came to Brooklyn, and we need that support. We need some faces in the place, you know what I'm saying? So come on out, hang out, and have fun. Absolutely. It's the legendary Ice Cube. It's the Breakfast Club. Thank you, brother.

Bring it back.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Check out the classic topic discussion. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, we're talking about a story that happened in Ikea. What happened, Ayiee? Well, employees were upset because they actually did
Starting point is 00:30:15 a Juneteenth celebration and the menu featured fried chicken and watermelon. They said that was racially insensitive. All right. So we're asking is that racially insensitive? 800-585-1051. Charlamagne, you like chicken and watermelon. They said that was racially insensitive. All right. So we're asking, is that racially insensitive? 800-585-1051. Charlamagne, you like chicken and watermelon. Yeah, I mean, listen, I get it. You know, for reasons
Starting point is 00:30:32 I have never explored or educated myself on, it is a negative black stereotype when it comes to chicken and watermelon. But we're going to stop acting like everybody don't love chicken and watermelon. Okay? Everybody, everybody loves chicken and watermelon. Majority of the people love chicken in all forms whether it's fried barbecued grilled sauteed whatever and a large amount of people love watermelon especially in the summertime
Starting point is 00:30:55 okay now ikea shouldn't have put it on the juneteenth menu for black people you know because it is a negative stereotype towards black people so i can understand why people thought it was racially insensitive. But, you know, other than that, man, y'all going to stop acting like fried chicken and watermelon is not great. Nayee, were you offended by it? Was I offended? I would think that you would know better than to have a menu featuring
Starting point is 00:31:16 watermelon fried chicken to celebrate Juneteenth. Like that's what black people love. Give them some watermelon and fried chicken. So I get it. What if a black person actually did the menu? Let's say a black person said, you know what? I'm going to do a menu and I'm going to put some of the stuff on the menu that I like. Well, the black person didn chicken. So I get it. What if a black person actually did the menu? Let's say a black person said, you know what, I'm going to do a menu and I'm going to put
Starting point is 00:31:26 some of the stuff on the menu that I like. Well, the black person didn't. Was it? No. No, it was not black. That's what they were complaining about.
Starting point is 00:31:32 That's what employees were complaining about. I thought it was Matt Ikea put the menu up. Yeah, and that was Ikea's problem. That's actually why Ikea should get donkier
Starting point is 00:31:39 the day to day because once again, if you're going to do something culturally, bring people from the culture in the room to have the conversation it goes back to what we was talking about earlier with uh michael b jordan and juve if you're going to name the drink juve talk to some caribbean people before you do that if you're going to put together a juneteenth menu talk to some black
Starting point is 00:31:59 people before you do that it's not a hard concept corporate america i say i well yeah i agree what you're saying but like in mich Michael B. Jordan's case, right? I'm from New York. I go to Juve all the time. I always thought Juve was a celebration, so I would have never have thought
Starting point is 00:32:11 in a million years what it was. And I mean, and I would have did it. And guess what? And guess what? You'd have been right there on Instagram apologizing
Starting point is 00:32:17 for Michael B. Jordan. And saying, I'm going to change the name. That's right. I mean, that's it. But you wouldn't have thought anything about it. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:32:24 Yo, this is Troy out of V8. What's up, Breakfast Club? Troy, what's up, man? I mean, that's it. But you wouldn't have thought anything about it. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Troy out of V8. What's up, Breakfast Club? Troy, what's up, man? Ikea, you know, put for the Juneteenth menu chicken and watermelon. Were you offended by it, bro? No, I'm not offended, man. If my corporate America job gave me some fried chicken and watermelon, and they want their intent to be offensive,
Starting point is 00:32:42 if that watermelon is nice and red. Oh, my God. Chicken got them 11 herbs and spices. Goodbye, man. He got a point. If the chicken is dry, you're going to be mad as hell. If the watermelon ain't ripe, you're going to be mad as hell. But, boy, if that chicken is fried right and that watermelon hitting, you're going to be mad as hell. If the watermelon ain't ripe, you're going to be mad as hell. But, boy, if that chicken is fried right and that watermelon hitting,
Starting point is 00:33:08 you're going to be happy. Keith. Scott. Yo. Good morning. Were you offended when I can't put on the menu watermelon and fried chicken? God, Sean, this is crazy, though. Yeah, I wasn't offended.
Starting point is 00:33:20 If I was offended by everything, man, I would be exhausted. But I do say I love fried chicken. Where's Angela at? She here? I'm right here. Yo, Angela, she knows, yo, Crown Chicken's got the best chicken in New York City. I love Crown Chicken. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:38 Now, I don't know if I would say that they have the best chicken in New York City. You know where they have really great fried chicken? At Peaches. You ever had Peaches? Oh, yeah. I love Peaches. I love eating brunch there. Yeah, they got this honey hot chicken. That's amazing. That's why, y'all, I don't know how we
Starting point is 00:33:53 frontin'. Yo, listen, I was on a boat. I don't like watermelon, by the way. Yeah, I've heard. I think that's a New York thing, because I love me a nice ripe watermelon. I was actually in South Carolina a few weeks ago, and I was on a boat with a bunch of the white homies, and they had chicken tenders from Publix and watermelon,
Starting point is 00:34:14 and them white people was tearing that chicken and watermelon up. I wasn't even supposed to be on the boat. So that's what they had planned. So they had that already. They had that already. That's what they wanted. They wasn't impressing you. I do try to eat grilled chicken over
Starting point is 00:34:28 fried chicken. Me too. So I don't really eat fried chicken that often. Yeah, fried chicken is very, very occasional. For health purposes. But I love barbecue chicken. Grilled chicken is good. Chick-fil-A is good. Yeah, chicken is good. And watermelon is good too. I don't know what to tell y'all. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:34:44 Hey, Ash. Hey, Ash. Were you offended with Ikea's menu of the fried chicken and watermelon is good too. I don't know what to tell y'all. Hello, who's this? It's Ash from Jersey. Hey, Ash, were you offended with Ikea's menu of the fried chicken and watermelon? You know, being black, everybody say that we like chicken, we like watermelon, we like grape soda. Personally, I don't like grape soda.
Starting point is 00:34:59 I don't like grape soda either. I don't like no soda. I don't do no soda. I don't drink no soda. Yeah, I think it's disgusting to me. Do you like fried chicken? Everybody likes fried chicken. Yes. People like fried chicken. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Season it with what? Pepper and salt. Do you like watermelon? Watermelon is fine. It's not really my favorite. I like strawberry. You know what I mean? It's always a stereotype with us.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Every time our pants sagging down, but they don't say anything when it comes down to white boys doing the same thing. Word. Drama. I do want to say sometimes, you know how you have like a prefix menu and then they ask you, do you want the salmon, the steak, or do you want the chicken?
Starting point is 00:35:40 And I always be like, the chicken. Because chicken is good, guys. I like the salmon right there. I like salmon too. I don't eat seafood. I think we ate more spaghetti in our house growing up than anything, but that ain't no negative stereotype. I had Velveeta mac and cheese, boy.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Did you put sugar in your spaghetti? I don't know. My mama might have. I didn't cook. Hello, who's this? Oh, Randy, man. Hey, Randy. How are you, Randy?
Starting point is 00:36:04 Sugar. How you doing, fella? How you feel about How are you, Randy? Sugar. What's up, fella? How you feel about chicken and watermelon, Randy? You know what? When they picked up the phone, I said, I'm black. I don't care. But it's kind of weird. I live in Wisconsin, and I got, like, these white friends,
Starting point is 00:36:16 and they like to make comments about chicken. But I love chicken and freaking watermelon. What do you mean your white friends like to make comments about chicken? Give them some context, bro. Give them the chicken. They'll say, man, friends like to make comments about chicken? Give us some context, bro. Give him the chicken. They'll say, man, you gonna go enjoy some watermelon this summer? I mean, on this weekend? I'm like, uh, you know what I will. That might be a little racist.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Why would a white person just randomly be saying that to you? You gonna go get some watermelon this summer? Because I'm kind of a comedian. I like to talk about them not seeing the chicken. Oh, so they throwing the jokes back at you. They going back and forth. Okay. I don't of a comedian. I like to talk about them not seizing the chicken. Oh, so they throwing the jokes back at you. They going back and forth. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Got you. I don't know, guys. It's a little harder than not seizing the chicken, though, man. I mean, to you? You don't know how them comments feel to white people? All right. You know, before I go, though, I love all my white friends. They invite me all to their weddings, their campings up north.
Starting point is 00:37:04 So I love them all, man. I love all my white friends. They invite me all to their weddings, their campings up north. So I love them all, man. I love all my white friends. They even bring me around. And they let me come to their weddings. And they let me come to their kindergarten graduations. I love me my white people. If you want to make somebody uncomfortable, right? Yesterday I went to the Restoration Hallway, right?
Starting point is 00:37:21 And I was like, so what's the Juneteenth sale? Is it still Juneteenth sale? The guy looked at me like, Juneteenth sale? I'm like, yeah, it was's the Juneteenth sale is this still Juneteenth sale the guy looked at me like Juneteenth I'm like yeah it was just a Juneteenth holiday you have a holiday
Starting point is 00:37:28 for everything you have 4th of July sales you have late Memorial Day sales President's Day sales there's no Juneteenth sale I got a percentage off
Starting point is 00:37:34 I just want to let you know what if he would have said it's also no longer Juneteenth I mean what if he would have said Popeye's is doing sales all week
Starting point is 00:37:40 if you want to go get a two piece I heard Rick Ross doing dives now. I heard they got a sale going on too. What's the moral of the story, man? The moral of the story is chicken is good and watermelon is great. I don't know what the hell y'all talking about, but I get it.
Starting point is 00:37:55 You know what I mean? Ikea was just tone deaf. Once again, if you're going to do anything culturally, corporate America, bring people from the culture in the room so you don't make these mistakes. It's simple. I'm kind of hungry right now. You know, it's so funny that I was trying to clean stuff out of my fridge
Starting point is 00:38:10 and I dropped all this fried chicken on the floor this morning. Niggas, niggas. I was like, whoops. I threw this out. The Breakfast Club. Audible. The Broward. The 105.1.

Starting point is 00:40:33 He jumped in the game. All right. Now, I'm going to tell the truth of how I really went. When the dice game first started off, I walked over there.
Starting point is 00:40:39 What you just betting? Then I looked down. I said, man, you just betting $400. You ain't betting no money. They all pulled their money out. We got it.
Starting point is 00:40:47 It's here. Don't get it fucked up. I riled him up and then walked off and did the video. I came downstairs. So when they see me the next day, they talk,
Starting point is 00:40:56 but you riding my fucking... You was in the dice game. Do you miss the artist part of the game? Like being a rapper, performing in city to city? Do you miss that part of the industry? I do, but I don't. It ain't too much to miss.

The label got you on Soul Train. Don Cornelius, they say, we want Gilly on there. Why would he know you? Why would Don Cornelius know you? You ain't have no soul. He's a fucking loser. He's a loser.
Starting point is 00:41:58 There's no way in the world I'm booking him for a show. I'm not booking him. First of all, he mad because he started the group, and then you got caught. I didn't get caught. No, I was his manager. You started Major Figure World? Yeah, I took him to him.
Starting point is 00:42:13 He didn't know what was going on. No, no, no, no. I signed him under his first contract. No, I wasn't a rapper. He was a rapper. Oh, I know you're a rapper. He grew up a rapper. He went through all the phases.
Starting point is 00:42:21 He went through the bumps, kickity, bumps, kickity, bump, bump. No, I'm a rapper's story. Yeah, I take pride in that. I take pride in that. I was a hype man and all. I went through the phases of rap. I was a hype man and all. He started off a hype man.

Listen, I signed him to his first contract, though. You got the slickest mouthpiece in the hood. I know you can rap.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Then I started rapping. I was better than him. You wasn't better than me. He wanted to back my play because I was better than him. I was his first manager. He was my assistant. I was your manager. Get my tape out of here.

Starting point is 00:43:26 Nothing, nothing. When you walked in, he cut you off and sat right in that seat. I just had to look at him. I thought my brother was going to sit there. I'm like, I'm thinking to myself, did you just claim that as a celly? He want a group hug. He really want a group hug. That's all this is about.

You know, I was listening to it this weekend when you was on QDZ's show and Beanie Siegel called in. You just went in the Groovy Mars show. That was so classic.
Starting point is 00:44:57 You got to be serious. I don't like that. I mean, how can you be f***ed up? You be hating. What happened? Oh, you never heard that? Oh, you got to add that, man. State your name, gangster. Come on, man. Y'all know what it says, man. Y'? What happened? Oh, you never heard that? Oh, you got to add that, man. State your name, gangster.

Starting point is 00:45:27 daddy that can wiggle out. What's up? I don't even know what they was beefing over, but Gilly was screaming on Beanie, and then Beanie called in screaming on Gilly. That sounded like them niggas was going to shoot each other out as soon as the interview was over. Gilly beefed with damn near everybody in the industry at one point. And then I went
Starting point is 00:45:43 down a whole rabbit hole, and they was like, Gilly and Beanie got into a fight, and yada, yada, yada. Y'all. Gilly B was a damn near everybody in the industry at one point. And then I went down a whole rabbit hole, and they was like, Gilly and Beanie got into a fight, and yada, yada, yada. I'm like, huh? That's a fucking lie. I'm just saying, sucker punch you. You caught yourself. Don't put that smoke on my name.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Baby was there. He's sick. That was a rumor, too, on the line. No, there was no fucking rumor. He got sick. All-star weekend. You asked Beanie what happened. Beanie sucker punched you.

No, they is. Don't put no smoke on my name because you're going to have me tell what really happened up here. I want to add s- to it, but that's another story.
Starting point is 00:46:22 But see, that's- and it was different with y'all back then because there was always a chance that it could get physical or turn into some street s***. Absolutely. It did turn into some street s***. It did. And, you know, Spade went to jail. It got real serious. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, that's why I don't even talk on that situation because somebody from our camp went to jail for murder.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Somebody lost their life. And what's so crazy is that, you know, we was beefing with Beans and Freeway and State Property and a lot of shit went down. And then you look up 20 years later and these dudes are my brothers because we grew up and we understood that that shit was going through that it wasn't didn't even make no sense that wasn't even that deep but when did y'all realize that because you beef with them and you beef with joe you beef with so many different people when you realize oh oh let me just say this about you he didn't beef with joe beef is when somebody get killed a shot

But if you f*** with me, then you just know I'm coming. I ain't never
Starting point is 00:47:55 start nothing with nobody. Now, I might talk a little s*** to Baby from time to time, but that's because I was around. I did s***. How serious are y'all about Wallo trying to get your masters back from Baby? Does he really own your masters? I talked to Baby. Baby said, Wallo,
Starting point is 00:48:11 listen, he said, your cousin, I lost money with him. I said, well, how can we straighten this out? He said, man, he be talking crazy. I said, cuz, I got a video from Gil apologizing to Baby, and I sent it to him. So right now, the lawyer is just talking. So it ain't going to be that long.
Starting point is 00:48:27 He really on your masters? Yeah, he on his masters. Let me tell you how I really want to know. He was on Cash Money Records. He on everybody's masters. He said, Baby, how can I get my cousin's masters back? He said, give me a kiss. Get the f*** out of here.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Get the f*** out of here. You seen that picture of him kissing you. That's the whole twist, though. But at the end of the day, he owned his Masters, so I'm negotiating that. It's not like it's worth something, but I want to just give him the helm
Starting point is 00:48:51 and say, here go your Masters. I wonder how you and Beanie did get on good terms, though, because you talked about people going to jail, people getting killed, right? And people gave Jeezy so much flack for squashing it with Gucci, and it's just like, man,
Starting point is 00:49:01 why can't you be bigger than the bulls**t sometimes? No, no, no, no, no. I'm just... You think it's just like, man, why can't you be bigger than the bulls**t sometimes? No, no, no, no, no. I'm just... You think it's two different situations? Yeah, it's two different situations. You said somebody got killed? Everybody's situation is different.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Everybody's situation is different. We can't even talk on that because we don't even know the particular s**t. It continued even during the verses. It was still... No, I'm just going to be quiet. I'm just. You're never quiet. He's like, I don't want to speak on that.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Everybody say that grow up. But if you send some niggas to my crib to dust me off. How you going to feel? I don't care. 40 years go by. We smoking Ronnie G. Ronnie G came to dust me off, man. No, I'm not kidding.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Take me away from my family, man. It could be. What if Ronnie G would have gotten me? So not 20 years later. That's personal. He tried to dust me off. I dusted Ronnie G off in the process. I don't know how everybody else feels, but 20 years later, we smoking Ronnie G. I agree.
Starting point is 00:49:59 I see what you're saying, but at some point, don't you got to let go of that trauma, though? Not when he tried to come dust me off. Take me away from my kids. Because what if he went? What if he did get him out of the some point, don't you got to let go of that trauma, though? No, not when he tried to come dust me off, take me away from my kids. Because what if he went? What if he did get him out of the way? I don't know. You know what I mean? That's different shows.
Starting point is 00:50:11 Because it actually went down. Like, boo-bah, boo-bah, boo-bah, boo-bah, boo-bah. Yeah, they could have returned fire. They could have killed my kids in here. But that's the easy thing. Everybody got a different way to approach it. They could have dust everybody off in the house. So now, because I was on point,
Starting point is 00:50:27 it caught you slipping like a bad transmission, laid you down like baby hairs, had to go to jail, I think, fight the case and all that, if I'm not mistaken. Lose years of my life, money, and I'm supposed to feel sorry? I'm just saying, that's just the way I think. I would have been smoking O'Re you'd be through that way. I would've been smoking O'Reilly G in there too.
Starting point is 00:50:46 I'm gonna say this though. You never let it go, Gilly? I would never, how you let it go if somebody tried to dust you off? Yeah. The difference between you losing your life and you living is like this, man. When them hot,
Starting point is 00:50:57 I don't know if y'all ever been shot before. Nope. Oh, okay, I've been shot before. So this is this close, the bullet could have went this much closer I could have been done now my kids growing up without a father We smoking ratty G. Forever. I'm just a petty. So how did you get it you squash it would be I Just saying We didn't lose nobody. Oh, your side did? No. Oh, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:51:25 Got you, got you. So, I mean, it wasn't that hard for us to squash it. See, it gets personal for me because they tried to kill me. How you ever get over somebody coming to your house and trying to dust you off? No. All right, when we come back, we got more with Gilly the King and Wallo, so don't move.

Starting point is 00:53:04 Jay-Z told him, we had a situation on paper. Jay-Z told him, get the fuck out of here. No, no, no, no. No, let's be for real. What did Jay really tell you, though? All right. Initially, being signed a Rockefeller. Then Major Figures was supposed to sign a Rockefeller.
Starting point is 00:53:16 By the time they came back with the deal for Major Figures, I had already signed with Suave House. Then Dutch and Spade went over here to entertainment. Lava went down here with Dr. Dre mm-hmm but then Jay wanted the group so then when they came at us with the contract it was like I'm an independent I'm a solo artist I get 15 points a bump at gold a bump at platinum there's seven people in his group man we got 12 points man we would have to sell a quadrillion records to make some goddamn money, man. So I turned the deal down.
Starting point is 00:53:47 And what Jay told you? Then they went out and got state property. No, but what the fuck did Jay... This was before state property. No, no, no. Yeah. Oh, Evie. But what did Jay-Z tell you after you turned it down?
Starting point is 00:53:58 And did he stand on what he said? Man, let's just say the black ball's real, man. What did Jay-Z tell you, though? What did Hov tell you? God, I'm sick. What did he tell you? Shout out to Hov, man. Jay Blackball, you in the industry back there? Hov told him, I'm gonna make it hard for you. It's gonna be hard for you.

We always had great relationships. You played me to the text game too. Oh, that s*** is not good. Well, maybe he meant it in like a friendly competition way. Like,
Starting point is 00:55:01 you know, you're going to sign the Suave House and we're going to make it hard for you. Yeah. Yeah, I think that might have been like some friendly competition like how did you feel when he told me? I'm gonna go grab these other boys. I was a young kid in the game. I didn't know Jay was about to be the next biggest 20 years so I was like Y'all ever spoke after that?

Usually, this is where we do rumors, but we still have Gilly the King and Wild'O'Hair, a million dollars worth of game. Now, this is very interesting. Jay-Z or Drake? This is a conversation everybody's been having. They had that with Flex on.
Starting point is 01:01:21 That was a good one. Jay-Z or Drake? First of all, to say this, I'm not a Drake fan. I've never in my life gotten a current through Drake on. That's the God honest truth. You know what I'm saying? I like him when he raps. I don't like all that singing. You know, just just me. He like Lemon Pepper Freestyle. He was spitting
Starting point is 01:01:35 on there. You spitting balls on there. I ain't hear it. All day, every f***ing day, Jay-Z, man. What the f*** is we talking about? I don't understand. Why do we, what is we talking about? We grow, we older though. I understand we older. Drake, the R&B singer. Like, fuck is we talking about I don't understand why do we what is we talking about we older though so Drake an R&B singer like what is we talking about who better Chris Brown than JZ
Starting point is 01:01:52 like what the fuck is we talking about it's not the same man his kids love Drake no no no Drake is the greatest of his time that don't mean I have to listen to you Jay-z was the greatest of our time only so two three million records anytime he came out So everybody one listening to him all I'm saying is Drake say a lot of light skin

I'm gonna s*** you, Baca. What are you, Star Wars?
Starting point is 01:03:12 You're saying you're mad? Drama or Clue? Oh, Clue would go with him. I just was talking to Clue the other day. Just mixtape. We're talking about just straight mixtape. Drama. You're the perfect one.
Starting point is 01:03:23 I agree. Drama. Drama. Why? I agree. Because drama had. Why? I agree. Because drama had a little longer run. And he had a bigger brand. I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:03:29 He had a bigger brand. Drama kept his name the same the whole time. No, no, no. If Clue did Professional 1 through 108, it would be the same brand. But what I'm saying is Clue set the stage for drama. He did, absolutely. I'm going to say that. I agree with that.
Starting point is 01:03:41 But when drama dropped that gangster grill grill, like everybody that drama dealt with on that gangster grill at one point in time, that took off. Yep. From the Jeezy's to the T.I.'s to the Wayne's to the you name it. But they was out already, though. But it took them. It propelled them. Clue broke Fab, Mase, and the Locks,
Starting point is 01:03:59 the people that nobody heard of. I'm saying. Drama outbreak Jeezy. Hold on. That's cool. Jeezy was out. But I'm saying Clue. I'm saying Clue. I'm saying Clue.
Starting point is 01:04:05 I'm saying Clue. Chopper died was what put Jeezy on the map. I understand, but I'm saying Clue because I was in jail. And before I went to jail, Clue had this shit. He did shit the dudes wasn't doing. I think Clue was the biggest. And Drama, my man. DJ Drama had the biggest series because nothing was bigger than Gangsta Grill.
Starting point is 01:04:19 No, no. And Clue broke Envy. He broke Envy. And Clue broke Envy. Drama said, well, you Wayne had to be a superstar. Yeah. Because after Gilly stopped writing for Wayne, then Wayne started heating up again through those mixtapes.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Do you believe Gil wrote for Wayne? Not really. Thank you. I mean, he's allowing Gilly to be a liar. You with me, though. I don't think he wrote for him. So let's ask, Gilly, did you write for Wayne? Why were you lying about it, though?
Starting point is 01:04:43 Let's just clear it up right now. Did you write for Lil Wayne? No, I ain't it, though? Let's just clear it up right now. Did you write for Lil Wayne? No, I ain't. Not one bar. I'm tired of this conversation. Gilly kind of the original Quentin Miller, man. Because he helped people, but then he got the show into the stick. Like, let's just go into all the shit that I said in the freestyle.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Tell me one lie. You have four albums in and ain't received a publishing check. That was in 2004. Wayne was just suing Baby for $52 million in 2017, right? One thing I don't do, man, I don't do no faking or no fraud. He told Wayne about what a publishing check was. He didn't know. Motherfucker said, man, I just know if I go gold,
Starting point is 01:05:25 I get gold money. If I go platinum, I get platinum money. Motherfucker, what? He came down there and fucked their old system up. So it was you that fucked up cash money?
Starting point is 01:05:35 Yeah, he told me. Motherfucker, what? I got around and started finding out. Wait, hold on. Motherfuckers is on the label and motherfuckers is your manager? Motherfucker, that's a conflict of interest.
Starting point is 01:05:47 I don't know about no conflict of interest. I just know, okay, yeah, I just know you're getting f***ed. So why you end up beefing then if you was playing my game? I have no idea why we ended up. So do you respect an artist like Drake or an artist like Wayne who doesn't necessarily always write his own rap? Let me just tell you something, man. Music is about going in the studio, having fun, expressing yourself.
Starting point is 01:06:10 Sometimes there's one person in there. Sometimes there's three persons in there. Sometimes there's five people in there. Like, people keep frontin'. Like, a lot of these great, some are our greatest artists. They didn't have people that write shit for them. We the only John Rom music that's so worried about that. Everybody else, most of they hits, they didn't even write.
Starting point is 01:06:26 That's why rappers be having a limited shelf life. We have a limited, like, yeah. Guess who don't care that Drake ain't write that music? The Kootens? Huh? It's the woman that's going to suck his dick at the end of the night. They ain't sucking Quentin Miller's dick. We going to suck Drake's balls out his dick and spit them down at the end of the bed.
Starting point is 01:06:43 Not Quentin who? You real? Man, listen. Somebody going to edit that from Drake's team. I know. Drake balls out his d*** and spit them down at the end of the bed. Not Quentin Hoop. Man, listen. Somebody going to edit that from Drake's team. That did sound crazy. No music, no talking. He just said it clearly. We going to suck Drake balls.
Starting point is 01:06:56 No, the b**** is his. As long as we get paid. As long as we get paid. I said they going to suck Drake balls. No, you didn't. You said we, man. I ain't say no f***ing we.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.

I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes. They want this man to throw them blows, man. They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves.
Starting point is 01:13:40 Let's go. They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the donkey of the day. They chose you. This is a breakfast club, bitchy. Who's donkey who was going to be on the donkey of the day. They chose you. It's a breakfast club, bitchy. Who's donkey of the day today? Well, donkey of the day goes to Newsmax anchor Greg Kelly. Greg Kelly is a man who doesn't like weed, marijuana, cannabis, pot, grass, ganja. Whatever you want to call it, he's not with it.
Starting point is 01:14:01 This is Greg Kelly and Dr. Kevin Sabet on his Newsweek show talking about refers. Plural, listen. New York State legalizes the recreational use of marijuana. And we join more than a dozen other states now where you can light up for no other reason at all than to get
Starting point is 01:14:19 high. Personally, I think this is a very, very bad move. Doctor, first to you. You're not cool with this, right? This is a bad thing. I know all kind of gateway drug, all that stuff, not to mention all the mental health issues. Yeah, it's a really bad idea. You know, today's marijuana is not your Woodstock weed of the past. Let me tell you something. I am not a weed head by any means. OK, your uncle, Charlotte, when I was a young lad growing up in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, dropping the clues bombs from Moncks Corner, South Carolina,
Starting point is 01:14:48 I used to smoke a lot of weed. In fact, myself and some of my partners, when we was in our teens, we called ourselves the infamous Buddha heads. We all took weed-like names. There was Bobby Buddha, Ichabod Ism, Mikey Marijuana, to name a few. Me, well, I was Charlie Chronic. What I didn't realize back then was I was, shut up, don't judge me, I was young. What I didn't realize back then was I was prone to having severe anxiety attacks.
Starting point is 01:15:13 The weed was not helping that. I just didn't know what it was back then. And I just thought it was the life I was living, along with the weed. Extreme paranoia just came with the territory. And when I saw Chris Tucker, you know, playing Smokey and Friday, hiding out in the chicken coop after smoking some weed i said oh so it's just perfectly normal for me to be paranoid scared and go hide out in the woods just because but then i went to jail for assault and barry would intend to kill if you want to know why it's in my new york times bestseller
Starting point is 01:15:36 black privilege i've told y'all this story a million times no need to rehash but while on probation it just became too much of a hassle to smoke and stay clean so i was doing everything from golden steel to catch claw. I had partners telling me they would give me their piss, but it was just all too much. So I just quit smoking. Okay, weed a prison, easy choice for me. But then, every now and again, I would attempt to do it,
Starting point is 01:15:58 and that's when I realized smoking weed is just really not for me because it makes my anxiety go through the roof. Back then, I had no idea, but now I fully understand, and to this day, if I I smoke weed I have panic attacks now edibles that's another story I can do edibles okay I don't know what it is about the edibles versus the smoking but the right dosage of edibles my god 10 milligrams 20 no more than 30 of a nice indica strain it's heaven okay I will lay around the house on the weekend when the kids go to sleep high off plant-based medicine, no anxiety, no stress, eating everything, and the sleep, man, the sleep is fantastic.
Starting point is 01:16:32 So yes, I'm saying all that to say I am a fan of plant-based medicine. On a bigger note, I am happy that all these states are legalizing weed, especially the two states I spend the most time in, which is New Jersey and New York. Not only do I want weed legalized, I want every brother and sister who is in jail for
Starting point is 01:16:47 a nonviolent weed offense to come home. All the folks who, because of all these tough on crime drug bills that Joe Biden wrote, by the way, I want them home. If you are in a state where weed is legal. But you know, this is America. We all don't think the same. So we have the Greg Kellys of the world. And the reason Greg Kelly is getting donkier today is not because he's against weed being legalized recreationally.
Starting point is 01:17:08 I don't care about that. It's his opinion. He's getting donkey because of this tweet he posted. Listen, this is Greg Kelly. If you don't believe me, his Twitter handle is Greg Kelly USA. But he tweeted and I quote smoking weed, a.k.a. grass, is not a good idea. I've tried it back in the day and it was worse in capital letters than anything that happened to Hunter Biden. I don't know exactly what that means. I do know Hunter Biden just revealed he's battled addiction his whole life, alcohol and drugs. In fact, Hunter Biden said he was smoking crack every 15 minutes. It's in his new memoir, Beautiful Things. So I guess he's saying weed was worse than anything that happened to Hunter Biden. That's false. But then he goes on to say
Starting point is 01:17:48 I toked up with some buddies in Kentucky and woke up in Nairobi, Kenya with no idea what happened. Oh, did I leave out this part? He said he woke up four days
Starting point is 01:18:03 later in Nairobi, Kenya, with no idea what happened. So you smoke weed with your buddies in Kentucky and woke up four days later in Nairobi, Kenya. And then you put don't do drugs. Greg Kelly, you smoked weed in Kentucky and woke up four days later in Nairobi, Kenya.
Starting point is 01:18:21 Now, I don't know what part of Kentucky you are in, but I know Louisville, Kentucky is 8,013 miles away from Nairobi, Kenya. Now, I don't know what part of Kentucky you are in, but I know Louisville, Kentucky is 8,013 miles away from Nairobi, Kenya. I googled it. Okay, the flight time is 16 hours and 32 minutes, but forget how long it takes to get there. You said you didn't wake up until four days later. That, sir, is what the kids call CAP!
Starting point is 01:18:38 Alright? Greg Kelly, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, nor am I the strongest Avenger, but I have a feeling that to you, CAP! 10 America is the strongest Avenger. Gray Kelly, what's your sign? You seem like a cap raccoon. Okay, I saw a tweet you posted about being mad McDonald's didn't have the big fish anymore, which I thought was strange because you seem more like a cap 10 D's kind of guy.
Starting point is 01:19:00 Gray Kelly, if you did a drug that caused you not to wake up for four days and you ended up in Nairobi, Kenya, by way of Kentucky, you need to file a police report. OK, there needs to be an investigation. The hardest drug I ever smoked in my life was cocaine mixed with weed. And that's because I was smoking with some dudes I didn't know from Florida. That goddamn Florida. All right. Matter of fact, that devil damn Florida. All right. Hate to tell you this about the cocaine and weed, but it was an amazing high. I would never do it again. Have never done it again. OK, but it was an amazing high. I'm saying all that to say I didn't pass out for four days, nor did I wake up in Kenya. OK, I don't care who you ask. Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Willie Nelson, Cheech and Chong.
Starting point is 01:19:37 They will all tell you, Greg Kelly, that you are a lie. OK, look, man, if you don't want weed to be legalized, fine. If you don't think people should smoke weed, fine. But don't make up stories that ironically make you sound high as hell. Not just make you sound high, but make you sound like you ingested some drug way stronger than weed. You need to check your boys because if you passed out after smoking some type of drug with them, woke up four days later in Kenya, that means they was dragging you around like Bernie's corpse. And I wouldn't be surprised if there was a game of stinky finger plate. But you don't have to worry about that because it didn't happen.
Starting point is 01:20:14 Stop the blood clot capping. Please give Craig Kelly the biggest hee haw. Somebody just got to lie because they don't want you to do something. You ain't got to make up that kind of lie just because you don't want us to do something. That's never happened to nobody. I ain't going to front. That didn't make me not want to do it. That going to make me like, I smoke some weed and I end up in Kenya?
Starting point is 01:20:36 Four days later? Four days later? I ain't even get on a plane? Did I pay for this trip? So who booked the trip for me? I don't know. So nobody booked the trip? Who took my passport?
Starting point is 01:20:43 Did somebody pack clothes for me? Who did? I just magically ended up in Nairobi? Bring me that me? I don't know. So nobody booked the trip? Who took my passport? Did somebody pack clothes for me? Who did? I just magically ended up in Nairobi? Bring me that screen. I need that screen. I need that screen right now. I've been trying to go back to Africa, South Africa, Kenya. It don't matter.
Starting point is 01:20:54 Take me back home. That back to Africa screen. Yes. Whoa. Who got the back to Africa screen out there? I need it. I need the Johannesburg. I need to go back to Johannesburg.
Starting point is 01:21:04 What? Give that to me now. Jeez. All right. Just don't name it the Mandela. That would be disrespectful. Yeah, you can't. Don't do that.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Don't do that. You can't do that. All right. We know how you niggas think. Thank you for that donkey of the day. All right. We got more coming up next. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 01:21:17 It's the best of The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Yep. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, DJ Envy is off right now. But we got a couple of special guests in the building, man. Two of my favorite young personalities in this culture. My nephew, Miles Jones.
Starting point is 01:21:40 My niece, Nyla Simone. What's happening? But y'all have a podcast called The What? Hip-hop questions, legends, and lists. What makes y'all qualified to talk hip-hop? One, we was born in it. Being Nylah's friend for so long, I
Starting point is 01:21:55 realized, I always thought Nylah was so much younger than us, but then we had a conversation. She's a millennial as well. She's at the other spectrum. Millennials, we are the babies and and children of the pioneers so like we're the last we're the tweeners right like we're the ones that grew up bow wow's your jay-z no no jay-z's my jay-z yo why we're not gonna attack look look this is what he does no so listen bow wow is bow Yes. He was the first to sell out the corner. Let's remember that.
Starting point is 01:22:25 We'll never ever **** on what Bow Wow did. I love Bow. But he's not ho. Ho is ho. Okay. Ho is ho. Okay. So that's what makes us qualify because we can have, we live through all of that.
Starting point is 01:22:35 It's like hip hop is our culture at the end of the day. As African Americans, like we don't really have origins back. Like we can't go back to, I from you know this place in africa we do these traditions but for us like hip-hop is the culture you know we grew up watching bet rap city we grew up watching you know different rappers and we emulate them like our heroes diddy jigger russell you know what i mean so that's why we're qualified perfect example just to show the opportunity keep giving us. Just as many times we've both been on Brand Idiots,
Starting point is 01:23:07 there's always somebody questioning why we take a stance and if they don't like our stance, why, you know, I mean, that's what hip hop does. The minute you don't like, they don't like you, they try and disqualify you.
Starting point is 01:23:16 The minute they don't agree with something, they try and disqualify you. But it's also subjective. I mean, everybody has their own different opinions. Right, absolutely. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:23:25 But just to show, you know, our qualifications, like, listen what we've been here you know somebody like me i've been here from the beginning right like my whole life is hip-hop you know what i'm saying like shout out to my dad spoon fed me you know i mean it's 95 96 i remember reasonable dot and i also remember my dad being like you can't really get into that until you get into this. And that's when he introduced me to Rakim, Sugar Hill. Like, I had to know Sugar Hill Gang. So when they was doing it on the band, I was like, hey, I don't know the words to Rap is Delay. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:23:55 Like, I've been here. So, yeah, if you want to question that, then you're just on your own. Same thing with you too, Nyla, right? Yeah, no, definitely. My dad hit me to everything early my mom is heavy r&b uh like erica badu jill scott donald jones sarnay she got an iffy iffy iffy take on lauren hill and mary jane oh my god yo the question was is lauren hill uh miseducation of lauren hill better than mary j my life and i said, the most impactful album
Starting point is 01:24:26 is the Miss Education Lauryn Hill. That one, it trumps it. We're talking just music though. Music to me, My Life is a better album. Way better. It's just completely different music though. You gotta think, Miss Education for a lot of women, it's a hip-hop album too and R&B, but it's also hip-hop.
Starting point is 01:24:41 It's all in My Life. Mary J. Blige is rapping. She has also hip-hop. It's like, I don't see... It's a hip-hop soul. But she had people rapping on it. It's definitely having people like Chucky produce like that. I think Lauryn Hill identifies more as a rapper than as a singer, though. I would say she considers herself a hip-hop
Starting point is 01:24:58 artist. I don't know. The huge records off that album was R&B. And I love Miseducation and Lauryn Hill. I just think My Life is a Better Album. I just think they're both classic albums. I don't like when people try to be like, what's better? Because it's, you know, X Factor was a huge song. My Life, obviously, that was an amazing album.
Starting point is 01:25:13 But I don't see how you compare. Well, you have to. That's hip-hop. That's what I'm saying. You have to. But I don't think a Mary J. Blige is a hip-hop artist. She's a queen of hip-hop. She's a queen of hip-hop.
Starting point is 01:25:22 She's a queen of hip-hop soul. She's definitely a part of hip-hop. But the Mised of hip-hop. She's the queen of hip-hop. She's definitely a part of hip-hop. But The Miseducation is definitely the better album. But Mary's album is great. I love how she do that. She do that on the podcast, too. It's great. Awesome.
Starting point is 01:25:32 She does that Jedi mind trick on the podcast, too. Like, you'll be debating. And she's like, all right, it's the better album. I'm just trying to wrap it up. She's firming her convictions. I'm just trying to wrap it up. It's disgusting. But I'm glad that both of y'all were schooled by older people on the culture.
Starting point is 01:25:47 Yeah, absolutely. Shout out to my parents. We have more with Nyla and Mouse. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 01:25:59 We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Nyla and Mouse. Yee. So who is the queen of rap? Cardi B. It's not even, the queen of rap? Cardi B. It's not even, no question. It's Cardi and then like. Rhapsody.
Starting point is 01:26:10 Cardi and Rhapsody. That's who we gave it to. Y'all disrespectful. Don't say y'all. I didn't, that's not my take. I mean, if we're talking about the moment, if we're talking about right now. We're talking about the past five years. Oh, see, that's different.
Starting point is 01:26:22 Cardi is the queen. But listen to his list after. Go ahead. All right, so. If we're talking about the moment, Megan would be in see, that's different. Cardi is the queen. But listen to his list after. Go ahead. All right, so if we're talking about the moment, Megan would be in the moment. No, absolutely not. Well, yes. Absolutely not. And then you know who he put over Megan in the moment?
Starting point is 01:26:33 No, I didn't. Go ahead. Sweetie is over Meg. I'm like your body. I'm going to tell you why. And we're talking about MCs. We're not talking based off TikTok. We're not talking based off everything else.
Starting point is 01:26:42 I'm going to tell you why I say that. So it's Cardi. Cardi's number one. And then the space between number two is pretty large, right? The reason I say that is because if you're going to give Meg that second spot, you also have to account that Meg's output doesn't match her talent level. If I'm talking just for the moment, like right now, I'm going Megan. Because we're doing it like sports, right?
Starting point is 01:27:01 And it's about the year. Like, you know, we're awarding people for the year, MVP or whoever. You would have to give it to Meg for queen. But nobody does it by the year. For the year, yeah. Nobody does it by the year. And also, where would this be? She had as many drops as Cardi.
Starting point is 01:27:17 She's won all the awards. She got very celebrated doing awards. Yeah, BET went crazy for her last night. She won Grammy. She won a Grammy. The Sabbath joint with Beyonce. I said Grammys. grammy yeah what what she won a joint with beyonce i said grammy don't don't say that she won a grammy thanks to beyonce that's great yeah beyonce got it got somebody else a grammy shot to the beyonce stimulus listen i don't hate me savage was going up before beyonce that's right that's why beyonce jumped on it both of them
Starting point is 01:27:41 it was good savage doesn't get a Grammy without Beyonce. It was a big record. It was a big record because of Beyonce. It would have been a TikTok record. It would have been a great TikTok record. And TikTok helped push it. It took it to the next level. And I'm sure Meg would say the same thing.
Starting point is 01:27:56 Yeah. It took it to the next level. Exactly. I think it goes. And the only reason I have a problem with just solidifying Meg at the number two spot is, like I said, her talent doesn't match her output. She's extremely talented. Her output doesn't say that. She's had two blah projects.
Starting point is 01:28:12 After Tina Snow, she dropped the Suge project and what was the other one? Like Hot Something. I can't judge her music. It's not for me. And also, I just think you can't really say that because I know mad girls who will play that album. Absolutely. Fall through. Maybe it's not for you guys.
Starting point is 01:28:27 It was. No, no, no. I can always point out something that's not for me. That's easy. But I also don't let that be a crutch. Just because it's not for me, I'll put it at the top. No. I like it.
Starting point is 01:28:38 So what is Nicki then? Nicki right now? Nicki's somebody who used to be. She in the kingdom still. In the kingdom still? Yeah. Cardi outed her. She was the queen for 10 years.
Starting point is 01:28:50 She's still a queen. No, absolutely not. She got removed. But can't you have different queendoms? You don't have to have one queendom. No, see, that's what we do in hip hop. And we don't do that with the guys. I was going to say, we don't do that with the guys.
Starting point is 01:29:02 We have to make it all fair. That's not true. With guys, everybody's to make it all fair. That's not true. With guys, everybody's competing for the same spot. That's not true. No, I don't think so. That's absolutely not true.
Starting point is 01:29:09 I don't think so. That's not true. I think they do give guys more leeway to be like, he's great, he's great, he's great. That's right. You could say everybody's great.
Starting point is 01:29:16 No, you could say that. Drake, they do that all the time. They don't say... Well, Nikki's a vet in this. I don't really think she's still competing. She's the influence. She's already Nikki. I agree already Nicki. True. I agree
Starting point is 01:29:26 with that. What about Nicki versus Lil' Kim? You heard Lil' Kim say she wanted to do it versus... I think that'd be dope. And wait, you didn't say who you thought was the queen at this point. I think that's a hard one to call because it's different. I grew up more listening to Lil' Kim and then Nicki came after that and I feel like I don't know how I can compare
Starting point is 01:29:41 Lil' Kim's songs to Nicki Minaj's songs. You know what I'm saying? And I feel like Nicki probably got a lot how I can compare Lil' Kim songs to Nicki Minaj songs. You know what I'm saying? And I feel like Nicki probably got a lot more songs, too, than Lil' Kim. No. You think? Mm-mm. They probably have the same amount. Because you got to think about all the albums that only we cared about.
Starting point is 01:29:56 You talked about Nicki being an influence. I think Kim is the... Yeah, yeah. Like, everybody got some DNA, some of Kim's DNA. Right. We're talking about right now. That's why when you said Nicki, and then we were talking about Meg Thee Stallion and Cardi,
Starting point is 01:30:08 I do feel like Nicki was an influence. We have more with Nyla and Mouse when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. For the full interview, check out The Breakfast Club YouTube channel. More than best of The Breakfast Club coming up. The Breakfast Club YouTube channel. More than best of the Breakfast Club coming up. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Nyla and Mouse Yee. What did you think about the XXL freshman list? They got it right this year. I mean, from a standpoint of who's hot, they were like 8 out of 10 this year.
Starting point is 01:30:46 They were 8 out of 10 this year. Yep, they got my girl Koi on there. They had Blast on there. Koi shouldn't be on that list. Koi should definitely be on that list. She said she's not a rapper. XXL freshman list is for rappers, and she said she's not a rapper. Stand up for your artist, Nyla.
Starting point is 01:31:01 She can't. She can't. She can't do it. She started off as a rapper. But she said, I'm not a rapper. Yeah, she said that because she tried to everybody talking s*** about her. No, that's not why she said it. Every rapper says they're not a rapper. No, no, no, no. Who? All of them.
Starting point is 01:31:14 Who the greatest said, I'm a rapper? Not only am I a rapper, I'm the best rapper alive. Jay-Z said, I'm not a, what did he say? I'm not a rapper, I'm a hustler. Jay-Z also said he was going to retire. Jay-Z also said he was going to retire and didn't retire. He was saying he he's gonna retire from album one my point exactly so she says imagine if imagine imagine if imagine if Jay Z would have retired after first album and she got nominated for best new female rapper yesterday like she shouldn't have been that is somebody else's spot
Starting point is 01:31:40 so the only problem you have is that she says she's not a rapper, even if she is. I hate when others do that. I hate when people come in and get it. She's an other. She's not an other. But don't you love Post Malone? She's not an other. Yo, what's wrong with you? You trying to start here? What? Yo, you trying to start here? I thought you liked Post Malone. I can't curse on you. You told me that. I never said...
Starting point is 01:31:59 Yo, what's wrong with this guy? I can't stand Post Malone. At all. He definitely said he's not a rapper. You don't like Post Malone because you don't like his music or you don't like him personally? I don't know him personally. I just don't. I just have a problem.
Starting point is 01:32:13 One, I have an inherent problem with white rappers. I knew that was a reason. And then when you go and then say, like you go benefit off of our culture and you benefit off of hip hop and then disrespecting the poop all over it that's my problem you get what i'm saying so it's like all right you said you're not a rapper but your first song came out white ivis and that's a rap song but you say you're not a rapper cool
Starting point is 01:32:33 i'm the type of person in anything if you say yo i'm not a radio person i'm not be like all right cool he just do radio but he's not ready for that cool but don't don't ask for radio personality perks you know i mean because you're not radio personality. You're saying that that's what you telling the world so same thing with Koi I don't think that the labels and the titles are that deep No, it's not even that it benefits me It's that these days anybody can go online and say they doing this and say they doing that but she's a successful rapper You can't say no she's successful artist she's a successful artist and she rap and she sing and she dance like she does multiple things so
Starting point is 01:33:09 it's fine yeah cuz we I mean Drake said he's a singing but we don't label him R&B when he drops R&B we we acknowledge his R&B but we don't label him a R&B artist and we still label him as a rapper I think people just want to be artists I mean you want to be an artist if you want to be an artist, then I'm fine with what you're saying. That's what she said, though. So don't ask for rapper credit. She's not asking for rapper credit.
Starting point is 01:33:32 She's not going to turn down the cover, though. You're not going to turn it down. I just think... Because, like, for Koi LaRae, she's had some very frustrating things happen to her personally online and sometimes you say things as a reaction to people going at you. Because I know it's not easy for these new artists
Starting point is 01:33:45 coming up and she's trying to do things and it's hard, right? And you got people critiquing you. I didn't say shit about it until she said it. Let me ask you this. I know you go through it, right? You look online one day, people are like, oh, I can't believe you're on here.
Starting point is 01:33:58 I can't believe you're on here. Did that ever make you want to say, well, don't say nothing about it because I'm not... But I'm not a new person at this. I feel like I was very fortunate fortunate i started doing this before social media so i was able to feel like it don't matter to me what people say i'm already did what i did i'm not just getting started but you're not gonna let that you're not but i've also been able to build up like a bigger tolerance than the average person because i think when you're younger and coming up
Starting point is 01:34:22 and this is like so prevalent for you where you make one mistake. I made a lot of mistakes, but it wasn't broadcasted to the world where people were coming at me. So I'm able to deal with it much better, I feel like, just because I built that up. So it's kind of like I've already been successful, already in the Hall of Fame. Hey!
Starting point is 01:34:39 But imagine if you're just getting started now and you trying to make your way and everybody's coming at you. I don't know that I could handle that. All I'm saying is if you are a rapper and that's what you're doing and people start critiquing your rap, instead of getting better,
Starting point is 01:34:57 the first thing you do is say, ah! Sometimes people aren't critiquing your rap. They're just critiquing you for the sake of critiquing you. They're not going to stop critiquing you just because you say you're not a rapper. No, they're not, but we're not also saying that it's easy to deal with that's all i mean it's not easy to deal with when you release that record you said oh i want the world to hear this record you gotta know not for everybody that loves it 10 people gonna hate
Starting point is 01:35:16 it you that's what you signed up but you also can't even anticipate how hard it's gonna be because until it happens to you you'll be in a bad mood one day and then that just come out of nowhere i mean jay said that back in the day jay said um just read a magazine article that fucked up my day so imagine how artists feel now because it's magazine articles blog posts social media be ready for the reason i don't give no credence to that bullshit because they should be ready for because before they got lit they was the ones with their opinion i agree remember rappers only lose their opinion when they get famous. That's the weird shit. I agree with you, but you're never really ready.
Starting point is 01:35:49 I mean, maybe it's not the perfect example because it's a little scaled down, but brilliant idiots, right? You go on brilliant idiots. As a podcaster, you get on brilliant idiots. I always tell people there's the brilliant idiots and it's the real, right? That's your Letterman and that's your Leno. Those are your pinnacles when it comes to hip-hop podcasting uh cultural podcasting boom right really it is
Starting point is 01:36:10 hip-hop yeah really i don't know about that when you talk about cultural impact okay yeah i remember the first time we met he was like yo pull up i said oh it's over now yeah the god's here now man i said i must have said something about somebody. They taught me. And I'm like, and I'm sitting there and I'm expecting, like, yeah, I'm on now. Now they went crazy. So I'm not supposed to be a podcast no more? I don't identify
Starting point is 01:36:36 as a podcast anymore. You did tweet out, I'm not a podcast anymore. I never said that. But you're into this. I'm not a podcast anymore. You like to debate, bro. You like to debate. You do, you do.
Starting point is 01:36:47 People talking to you and saying they see you, that's not really going to bother you because you're just going to talk back. Some people just want to put out their art and carry on. There's no even debate in those type of people. Like the trolls, there's no debate in them. You debate who you want to debate. Not everybody wants to debate, though. Some people just want to put out their art and go.
Starting point is 01:37:02 Right. These people don't owe us anything but music and I think we forget that in this era Like you say like you say you said remember you told me said there's a law 10, right? Mm-hmm is gonna be three people that like you like it three people that don't four people that's on the fence Yeah, I'm only worried about the four people on the fence to be honest Really you because we can't the three people that love it. Four people that's on the fence. Yeah. I'm only worried about the four people on the fence, to be honest. Really? Because we can't.
Starting point is 01:37:27 The three people that love it, they already love it. They loved it before we dropped it, if we're being honest. We all have fans like that. If you drop something right now, there's going to be a set amount of people that's just going to support it because they support you. Same thing with you, Uncle. Same thing with you, Nala. There's going to be three people who don't know you. Their entry point to you is something that they didn't like, and they're always going
Starting point is 01:37:43 to hate it. I'm only worried about the four because the four is the people we can win over because they're pure. And you should be allowed to grow too. I appreciate what Saweetie said about wanting to work on her craft and taking these lessons and everything just to
Starting point is 01:37:58 make sure she gets better and better because sometimes you put things out and then you do get a response and then you pay attention to that response and we should always be trying to figure out, like, how you're going to grow, how you're going to improve, what your art is. And you can't focus on that by just listening to the people that love you. That's right. Nyla, I want to clear this up.
Starting point is 01:38:14 When you say Koyla Ray is your artist, that's because you're her DJ. Yeah. Got you, got you, got you. It's Mouse Jones. Give me your Twitters and Instagram. Mouse Jones, everything the same. M-O-U-S-E underscore Jones. Yo, Instagram.
