And I just got some of the best s*** this morning, man, from this girl. And she used to suck, man, and like. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent it or something.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So you better have the same energy. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Barshe, man, coming out of Charleston, man.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Not here in the morning, heading out. Yo, 843, what's happening? I need you to slow down. You sound like you had a lot of pork this morning. Calm down, man. Hey, yo, DJ Envy and Angel Lee, this is a true story. I kid you not. I'm coming out of the joint.
Starting point is 00:03:26 I was talking to a cat, and he hooked me up with Charlamagne Tha God. And Charlamagne talked to me. Before he got that platform, he didn't have no money or nothing. And he was dead broke. And he was amazed at the story. Soon as he got that platform, this is the green-eyed genie, the creator of hip-hop. All pioneers know it. And now, everybody, they doing the movie on me,
Starting point is 00:03:50 and here, Charlamagne didn't have no money. Y'all didn't even know him, DJ Envy and Angela Lee. He didn't have no money or none of that. Soon as he got that platform, Goldie's my man, Charlamagne. Your best friend, Goldie. He put you on the phone with me when I was driving the trolley bus in Charleston
Starting point is 00:04:07 doing the million-dollar wedding, taking everybody to the plantation that was coming from all over the country, and you talked to me for around 30 minutes. And I told you I was the creator. You didn't have no money. You was dead broke. As soon as you got that platform, like many black people do, you flip, got a book deal, move your family out of there.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Now you're over in Jersey. Goldie, me and Goldie talk about you all the time. He works in Jersey, though. He works in New York. And then me and Ben Bartlett driving around in a van with Grand Wizard Theater in shootouts. 1975, 1976, 77, 78. I'm in the martial arts tearing the out the frame. I'm in the martial arts tearing the s*** out the frame. 35 years in the martial arts.
Starting point is 00:04:47 And we over here, I'm bringing this culture to all the five bubbles. Nobody knew no hip-hop, knew of nothing. You come out the country of some munch corner, first living in Charleston. Charleston, all of that back then was all bummy and dirty. Now you get a platform. You don't know the history. You don't know the life. But you know what's about it?
Starting point is 00:05:06 It's millions just like you, Charlemagne, so I'm not going to even hate on you right now. You can watch YouTube. I sound like hate to me, sir. I don't know what you're talking about. Well, listen, Goldie is my guy. That's not my best friend, but that's my guy. And number two, I don't understand your point.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah, I was broke at one point in my life. And people come up. I don't understand what your point is. I don't understand your point. Yeah, I was broke at one point in my life. Yeah, you was dead broke. And people come up. I don't understand what your point is. I don't get it. I don't. Like, you spoke to me back in the day, and then now what? You spoke to him for 30 minutes, and I thought that was pretty good. You know, you're from South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:05:35 You was broke. You got a job in New York. You work in New York. I don't see the problem. I mean. Sound like a great come-up story to me. I don't know. I was proud of you.
Starting point is 00:05:44 I mean, hey. Salute to my dude, Golden Eyes, though. I still talk to Golden. I don't know. I was proud of you. I mean, hey. Salute to my dude, Golden Eyes, though. I still talk to Golden. I don't know. I don't know what you're talking about. If your family was in South Carolina, that'd be a long drive every morning from South Carolina. I don't get the point of the whole story he just told us. He's only about to be like, why you put me in it?
Starting point is 00:05:57 But good morning. Goodness gracious. He was mad. Hello, who's this? Hey, man, it's Davey Ruffin again, man. I'm back. I'm trying to redeem myself. I'm all right, though, this morning. I'm blessed. How y'all doing? Redeem yourself for what? It's been a weird morning,
Starting point is 00:06:10 but what's up, bro? I'm all right, man. I've been on, you know, I got on it two days ago. You know, I've become a comedian, but what I really wanted to get off my chest is why at six in the morning, some certain people, I think they forgot about hygiene. There's no reason at six in the morning you smell like the back of a trash truck and the shift just started.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Nah. Damn right. Hey, but if you do garbage, though, if you're a garbage person, it stays in your pores, though. Come on now. Sanitation work. It might have been trash from the day before. And to the guy that called right before this, it's Angela Yee.
Starting point is 00:06:37 He kept saying Angela Lee. It's Angela Yee. Everyone does that. The man is clearly eating pork early in the morning, man. Don't tell him that. And I just want to say, sometimes people smell because of their clothes. You ever notice that? Sometimes people,
Starting point is 00:06:47 if you shower and you put on dirty clothes, an old dirty coat, you're still going to smell. So make sure you wash your clothes, too. Or if you use cheap detergent. Sometimes cheap detergent don't work. That's why you got to Febreze everything. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Febreze. Get it off your chest. 800-585. You ain't broke no more, Solomon. You ain't got to Febreze everything no more. Didn't that guy tell you? I'm going to always live like I'magne. You ain't got to Febreze everything no more. I'm going to always live like I'm broke. You ain't got to Febreze. Get some detergent.
Starting point is 00:07:09 I just wasn't sure what he wanted. Nobody. I don't know. I don't know. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:07:21 We got some special guests in the building. A show I'm happy is coming back. The cast of Dear White People. Hey. Say their names. We got some special guests in the building. A show I'm happy is coming back. The cast of Dear White People. Hey. Say their names. We'll let them introduce themselves. They can say their own names. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Hey, guys. I'm Logan Browning. Samantha White. Yes. A.K.A. Sam White. I'm Ashley Blaine Featherston. Joelle Brooks. I'm Antoinette Robertson.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Coco Connors. Good morning. Good morning. Calandra. Calandria. For people that don't know about Dear White People, explain to them what it is. Dear White People is a series that follows several students of color on the
Starting point is 00:07:53 landscape of an Ivy League, predominantly white university, and racial tensions get to like an all-time high when a blackface party is thrown. So we follow each student individually and kind of see their lives and how they deal with racism and social injustice. Being a blackface in a white place.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Yes. A blackface in a white place. What letter is this show writing to white people? I think it's saying, see us, acknowledge us, hear us. You know, what we're saying about how we feel that we're treated at times is valid. And we're being unapologetic about it. One of the best examples of that
Starting point is 00:08:31 is when Sam White's boyfriend actually, Gabe, calls the cops, right? At the party. Gabe was scared. He was scared, y'all. The last thing we do when we're scared is call the cops. Gabe was scared. He was scared, y'all. The last thing we do when we're scared is call the cops. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:48 That's even scarier. Yeah. And, you know, there was a whole debate, and we've been having this debate about white people using the N-word in songs. When they're singing along to Future. Not okay. Trap N-words. And he's saying the word like it's okay. Not Gabe, for clarification.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Another white guy. Although Gabe can't do that either. No, and Sam makes sure he knows that. Right, and it turns into a whole debate and they get into an argument about that and then Gabe is the person that actually calls the cops and he's white and he's your boyfriend, Sam, on the show.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Have you guys ever been around somebody white using the n-word singing along to a song? Not I, said the fly, not me. Nobody's doing it with me. And if they were, they wouldn't still be, right? Nope. I don't play that. You're about to come out with your own Dr. Seuss Dear White People book or something?
Starting point is 00:09:31 I'll even, like, if I'm in the car and, like, I hear people, like, blasting rap music and they're white, I'm always, like, looking to be like, are you about to say it? What you about to do? I see it all the time, though. You don't see it at a club or party you never see? All the time.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Yes. Just to play white devil's advocate, can't you see where it's a little confusing for them? I do. I understand. That's what I don't understand. But that's what I don't understand. I understand why it might be confusing, but I still don't get why people use the word.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Like, you're thinking, oh, I like the song. I can sing it. I'm like, yeah, but that's still a line you can't cross. So I feel like some people, like, debating that, it's not a debate. Like, you can't cross. So I feel like some people like debating that. It's not a debate. Like you can't use this word. That's it, period. Can they hum it?
Starting point is 00:10:09 No. By the same token, I just kind of feel like that's like if a black person said, you know, well, we endured slavery for so long. We should be able to call white people like, I don't know, crackers or something. They do. We can. But no, but I don't know. Crackers, crackers, colonizer, mayonnaise.
Starting point is 00:10:27 I'm still mad. No, but my point is that I don't think that you're not walking around being like, well, just because of slavery, I'm able to say it. Like, I guess, I don't know. I just don't think that. I say it out of a reaction for the way that my people have been oppressed. Now, Logan, your character really intrigues me because she's so militant on the show, but she does date a white guy.
Starting point is 00:10:46 You know, you think that people lose a level of blackness when they date outside of their race? I don't want to think that. I think that there is a part of your blackness that you get to explore deeper when you are in a relationship with another person of your same ethnicity. It's a choice. It's a choice that everybody has to make. Have you guys ever dated a white boy? A white guy? I've only dated black men. I did. And it was an interesting bring you home to family
Starting point is 00:11:17 kind of situation. I have a Jamaican mother. Hey! She's coming to dinner. White boy, white's coming to dinner. Wah, wah, white boy, white breadwinner. So they, like little conversations were like, that went over his head.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Like, he was like, wait, so what are they talking about right now? And I was like, See, I can't do it.
Starting point is 00:11:36 I'm not cut out for it. Yeah. You're not cut out to do it? No. Or you're not cut out to bring him home? No, bringing him home
Starting point is 00:11:42 would be fine. It's just, that would irritate, I want, I need you to understand what I'm talking about. I don't want to have to explain. What are you going to be saying that he's not going to understand? I don't know. Even if it's just like I wouldn't even want to be in a situation where he's like,
Starting point is 00:11:53 oh, like you guys are eating like yams and collard greens and shit. I'm like, what's that? Where does that come from? And I'd have to be like, well, when we were slaves. You know what? I just don't. See, you better when we were slaves. You know, I just don't. See, you better than me. I'd say KFC, mother******. I just don't want to be.
Starting point is 00:12:11 I need you to just get it. What about all of us dating Asian men? I'm sorry, what? You said, have we dated Asian men? You said, have we dated Asian men? Yes, that was based off of what Issa Rae put in her book that all of a sudden everybody got mad at, that educated black women should just get with Asian men. Because they have a surplus of men in China?
Starting point is 00:12:35 They do. Like they outnumber women like 27 or something crazy? Because they used to get rid of the women because they could only have one kid. I mean, I think that educated black women should date whoever the hell they want to. You know what I mean? On an opposite spectrum,
Starting point is 00:12:51 black women are men that it's important to them to be with someone else that's black. I feel like sometimes we're shamed for that too. Like when I say that it is important to me that I marry a black man. Because I've said that many a time. I'll continue to say it.
Starting point is 00:13:07 That's important to me, particularly from where we come from and how that was prohibited. We were pulled apart. I want to pull us back together. That's less likely when especially when you go to school. That's so mixed, you know, because I look at my daughter now. She goes to a mixed school where I don't really see her dating a black person right now. That's why I want her to go to HBCU so bad because she doesn't see it.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Being a Howard just changed my life. It's interesting you went to Howard because, you know, so is it a stretch to play a black woman going to an Ivy League school? No, it's not a stretch because I grew up in the D.C. area, but I went to predominantly white schools growing up.
Starting point is 00:13:44 So that was a huge reason why I went to Howard, because I wanted that experience. My experience prior to that was more like Winchester. But as far as like my college experience, it's completely different than Joelle's. And you didn't have no white women walking up to you asking about your hair? I did not. I did not.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I did not. That happens on dear white people. It does. I mean, that was my experience. I didn't realize, like, I, but you almost don't even realize it until you do. Like I was the only black girl on my entire hall in my building and I really didn't realize it until one thing would happen. You know, one little thing, somebody say
Starting point is 00:14:16 something to you and you go, oh damn, like Or you realize, not myself. But you realize too who can you talk to about? You can't be like, girl, you ain't got nobody to talk to about. Yeah, but there is, but still on a predominantly white campus, just like Winchester, there are pockets of black people, and they stick together. That you hang out with your own little mini-agents. That's how my college was.
Starting point is 00:14:35 As a matter of fact, the black guys at my school, they would have a black girlfriend, but then they would go to the sorority and the fraternity parties and the white ones, and it would be like a whole different world. So they would cheat on their girlfriend with these white girls, but it was so segregated. They never made what? They never even did.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Wow. The paths would never even cross. Wow. So nobody would know because it was like having a whole different world. I just want to raise my hand and say this. There's a lot of guys who, if you're a black man and you date a black woman, if you cheat with a white girl, they don't consider it cheating. But don't worry about that.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Is that a real thing? I've heard that before. That's it cheating. But don't worry about that. Is that a real thing? That's what I've heard. I've heard that before. That's not true. Give me names. What are you saying? I've heard that before. Give me names.
Starting point is 00:15:11 I've just heard that before. So what do they consider it? Just like exploring a fetish or something? If it's white, it's out of sight. So it's just like, that's what I've heard. Goodbye. Lie.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Lie. Detail. I don't know anything about that. So does that mean if black women cheat with a white man, it doesn't matter? Yeah, how do you feel about that? That's just wrong. Why be a sellout?
Starting point is 00:15:28 Why do you want to be a sellout? Why do you want to just sell out your people? Why do you just want to sell out your people like that? Why? All right, we'll be back with the cast of Dear White People, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Welcome home, Meek Mill. Hey, I appreciate it. Appreciate it. Welcome home.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Man, it's good to see you, Meek. Congrats to Meek coming home. I saw your Dateline special, man, and your Angie interview. It seemed like you're moving with purpose now. Yeah, I've been moving with purpose, though, before this. A different kind of purpose, though. Yeah, the support I got when I was in prison, though, I feel like I should be reaching back and giving out the same support because even a lot of people on social media, y'all screaming
Starting point is 00:16:15 free meek, y'all got family members in prison this day. You know, I'm just reaching back the same way people supported me. It really gave me a different outlook to see that many people supporting me at one time. Of course, I know a lot of people was like supporters of my music and stuff like that, but when it came to real life and people standing outside in the rain protesting and
Starting point is 00:16:33 actually being a part of helping me get back on these streets, you know what I mean? I felt like I'm entitled to step back, get back. You've been to jail before, though. Why was this time different? What hit you this time? God, I guess. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:48 I don't know why people came out and stood up for me this way. With me, it always was like I didn't have a platform to really speak. You know, when you speak on stuff and you might just come out of prison, people don't really take it the same way. Even the platforms, like the interviews I'm doing now and the platforms I'm getting out, it wasn't available to me. White media embracing you.
Starting point is 00:17:09 It wasn't available to me a year ago. It was eye-opening, though, when you went to jail this last time, I think, for a lot of people, because at first the narrative was, oh, well, why should we feel bad for him? He violated his probation. Absolutely. And some people were saying that, and I was like, well, he popped a wheelie
Starting point is 00:17:26 and he ended up violating his probation for something he didn't even get charged with. Yeah, and that's what everybody say though. You make one thing that don't look right before people find out the real story. They don't judge in any way. But then the real story comes out and we're like, wow, there's a lot more layers to this and that is the case I think with a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Not even just with you, but a lot of people that are in jail for violating probation and that brings light to a lot of other people going through things they got somebody like me that got seven lawyers that can't get out of a situation imagine someone who don't have the type backing that i got going on you know destroy their life in the quickness and they would never get relief from a situation like that basically right now i'm on the street i got a two-year sentence right now. Well, a four-year sentence right now. So for the average person to get relief from a situation like that
Starting point is 00:18:09 is like slim to zero percent. We talk about it a lot because, you know, a lot of times from the beginning, they give us these horrible deals, but we look at it like, we'll take this time because we'll take this probation
Starting point is 00:18:19 because we don't want to go to jail. I was watching your special like, damn, I did a decade on probation too, but I had 10 years on probation too. Yeah, from like 97 to 07. Mine was to go to jail. I was watching your special like, damn, I did a decade on probation too. But I had 10 years on probation too. From like 97 to 07. Mine was from 99 to 2009. This Commonwealth probation is different levels to it. You see out here, I had a Willie and a bike kid.
Starting point is 00:18:36 They charged me with a felony. They knew I was on probation, really. It's not an F1 felony to Willie a motorcycle. I went to court. It got threw out. It got turned into a traffic ticket, what it really was. But even though I got it threw out in New York, I still had to go back to Philadelphia and face another judge
Starting point is 00:18:54 about willying a bike, a case that got threw out, and still got sentenced on that. You know how they say if O.J. Simpson admitted to committing a murder, he wouldn't be able to be charged again because it's double jeopardy on these situations about how the laws are set up in Pennsylvania. Even if you beat a case, like I always say the Starbucks thing. Starbucks, I could have got the same sentence. It was nothing different. They would have been like, he violated.
Starting point is 00:19:17 He got locked up in Starbucks. They wouldn't have said in the media what I got locked up in Starbucks for. They would have been like, he got locked up in Starbucks. He violated probation. He in jail. And people would have been like, so what? He violated probation. You understand what I got locked up in Starbucks for. They were like, he got locked up in Starbucks, he violated probation, he in jail. And people would have been like, so what? He violated probation, you understand what I'm saying? Yeah, like any interaction with the police.
Starting point is 00:19:30 You had an incident in the airport too. And from my understanding, I don't know exactly what happened, but they were trying to get a picture. You know we ain't letting nobody punch on us or touch us. I don't really want to incriminate the guy to that level, but we ain't letting nobody really do nothing to us. You know what I'm saying? So even if somebody harasses you and then the police are called,
Starting point is 00:19:49 that's an interaction with the police and that's going to send you back to jail. Yeah, like I didn't get charged with that. I didn't get a crime. I got a citation because it was an incident. But, of course, we're in the airport. It's on camera. I didn't get locked up for a reason. You know, if you fight in the airport, you ain't making a flight.
Starting point is 00:20:04 I still made my flight. I kept it moving. I actually was violated for that reason. You know, if you fight in the airport, you ain't making your flight. I still made my flight. I kept it moving. I actually was violated for that, too. Now, we've seen you talk to T.I., and T.I. was like, I told you 10 years ago to do the time. Would you have done it differently if you knew what was going to happen now if you would have just said, you know what, I ain't taking a 10-year probation? But if I would have did the time back then, I
Starting point is 00:20:19 probably wouldn't be here today and had to fight for him. You know what I'm saying? Even when I was dealing with Tip, he was going to jail. He'd get out. I'd go to jail. He was going to jail. It was back and forth because we was both fighting our processes. And it wasn't we was catching new cases of violence. That's just
Starting point is 00:20:35 the process. When you got good lawyers, they'll get you back out when you get sentenced and get you some grace period. And then now you get sentenced. So we was going back and forth like that. And then the last time he went in jail, I was like 20. I was probably like 18, 19. I probably was 21. The streets was getting real.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Like, I had to, like, make a move to get out the streets. I felt like if I didn't make a move, probably would have died or been in jail for a long time because where I was coming up at at the time, it was like getting more ruthless in the area, so I had to make a move. Is that why that situation with Grand Hustle never worked? Yeah, basically. It was other little things, too. It was other people
Starting point is 00:21:10 in the middle trying to get, you know how you got managers and stuff, like, they want a label deal. You're like, I'm just trying to get a deal. You want a label deal. I ain't trying to, you trying to be baby. I'm trying to be Lil Wayne right now. Just let me get in the door, do what I got to do and I'll orchestrate the business from there on out.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Now, you talked about just how going to jail back then helped you. You don't think going to jail this time helped you? Because you was wilding for you. No, I wasn't wilding. I wasn't wilding before I went to jail. That's a little bit me. What do you consider wilding, though? I'm not saying.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Break it down. What? People say you're wilding when you spend money. No, no, I ain't talking about that. I never look. I'm on probation myself. When it come to me, I don't control people. If you feel like doing something or you got something going on
Starting point is 00:21:55 or you disrespect somebody that's right there, nowadays I would eject myself from the whole situation because it's a lot on the line. But before, I'm like, yo, I ain't got nothing to do with whatever you got going on. I ain't getting, I ain't under arrest. I ain't doing that. I ain't calling a shot on that. You know, it just be happening.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Things be happening. And I wasn't controlling my vibe. I'm going in vibes where it's negative vibes going on. Now I can control the vibe. If I go to Miami or it's Memorial Weekend or Vegas, I'm controlling the vibe. Who I want to come to me, come to me. I ain't just going to the five parties in the room. I seen, I had
Starting point is 00:22:31 all the pictures from Instagram and I seen a drink from Emmy. He was like all-star just don't feel right without a Meek Mill after party. Because you know we always do like one and we bring a lot of people together. But sometimes that bring negative vibes because everybody ain't coming on the same type of vibe, man. You know, we always do like one and we bring a lot of people together. But sometimes that bring negative vibes because everybody ain't coming on the same type of vibe, man. You know, I was close to some vibes that I could have ejected myself away from.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Yeah, yeah. You know how where like I had like an ego thing going on where I used to just carry myself. You know, I'm from Philly. We grow up a little. We a little angry a little bit. There be so much going on where we come from. God put me in that position. I'm like, all right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:04 We actually in here with the lifers on a daily basis this ain't what i want no you're right because it was the one situation in particular i'm talking about when they jumped on safari yeah they had nothing to do with it i didn't touch him i was in the back yeah i'm like why would meek be in this video no i was going to the club that was a college party that's what everybody don't understand i was going to the club and you know things happen you know how these things go with this music industry and stuff like that. But now I'm sure around you, people are very cautious. Like, look,
Starting point is 00:23:30 we not even trying to have that vibe around you either. Nobody don't gotta be cautious. I gotta be cautious and I call the shots. Who I have around me is key. You know what I'm saying? I had a chance to be like, we in New York. Let's go to Breakfast Club later on tonight.
Starting point is 00:23:45 We're going to Ace's or Starless or something like that. No dice. It's just a little bit different now. You hire like an armed security or something? I always got armed security. I'm talking about real security. You got no goons from Philly. I've never got no goons with me from Philly.
Starting point is 00:24:00 If somebody got a gun with me, they got a firearm permit. I always tell artists stuff like this. You don't like your homie if you had your homie gunning in New York with a dirty gun on him. Hell yeah, that's real.
Starting point is 00:24:11 They giving out real time for this stuff over here. Get a security. Get a police officer security. It's nothing nobody could tell me. You know what the rest of us say. They used to say,
Starting point is 00:24:22 I don't got no security. Nobby. Okay. I just came from the state penitentiary. I ain't had no security. I was good, but now I'm on the street. I got security. It's not really an ego thing.
Starting point is 00:24:34 All right, we got more with Meek Mill when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:24:49 We are The Breakfast Club. Meek Mills here. Now, how hard it is to get that judge off the case? That seems impossible. I've never seen nothing like it. I ain't gonna lie. She seemed like a scorned ex, man. What you did that you ain't telling us, man?
Starting point is 00:25:01 I ain't done nothing. That's what everybody in jail be saying. You was creeping with us. No, we basically, she's lived a few blocks away from my family members. I don't want to put information out there. Like, everybody, like the young people around her neighborhood, I know all of them, like, hand for hand. That's the only thing I can really say.
Starting point is 00:25:17 You got a niece or something you did dirty or something? I don't know. I don't even like, I'm scared to speak on that situation. Did anybody mention her bending me over? Was that true? There's no bending me over, man. I don't bend me. Oh'm scared to speak on that situation. Anybody mention her? Was that true? There's no bending me over, man. It was all bending me. Oh.
Starting point is 00:25:28 What are you talking about? I thought you said bending me over. There was no bending over. It was all bending me. What type of lie is that to make up? Like, who makes stuff up like that? Right. Like, yo, Envy took me in the back and asked me to redo a Michael Jackson song over,
Starting point is 00:25:44 and I'm just like, why would I make that up? Right. Envy took me in the back and asked me to redo a Michael Jackson song over. And I'm just like, why would I make that up? It is what it is. If you think about it one time, they got to do this. It actually was somebody else there. They said they don't want to involve themselves in it. But you know. Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 00:25:57 She definitely was there. But how did that make you feel? Because she basically said what you said wasn't true. Let's hear what Nicki said. The judge in question did everything I asked of her. I can't bad mouth her because I met her personally. And I know what she said to us and he knows that and I know that.
Starting point is 00:26:13 But of course I wouldn't wish that, wouldn't wish jail on anybody. I wasn't feeling that. She shouldn't have said nothing. And we leave it at that. I don't feel no way. She know I wasn't feeling that. Anybody know. When it kind of freedom and stuff like that, I don't care who it is. And this don't got nothing to do. I don't care who it is.
Starting point is 00:26:29 This could be Safari. This could be anybody. If I know something and that man freedom on the line, I could say something to help the situation. And it's right or wrong. It's just this and that. I'm going to say it. I don't really care.
Starting point is 00:26:44 If I don't say it, I just won't say nothing. Why not send her an edible arrangement or something? A watch, the judge. That's illegal. That's illegal? You can't send a gift? Yeah, you can't send gifts to the judge. I mean, just to say, yo, whatever I did to you, I apologize.
Starting point is 00:26:58 That's against the law. That's like bribery. And I don't know that that would work. And that comes up in court, and she says that he sent an edible arrangement. But it's clearly a personal something she got against you. Now that policy needs to change as far as how can you remove a judge off a case.
Starting point is 00:27:14 You know how sometimes too, like Tata from that B.W.H.O.V.E. told me a long time ago, he's like, yo, I know what you're doing with that Instagram, how you be living, how you be flows, and he said I see how you're trying to inspire and you're using it to catch the younger eye and inspire. I'm like, yeah, that's my thing. Because, you know, with the younger people, it's just certain stuff you could do to catch the eye.
Starting point is 00:27:33 And, like, when I read a lot of my mail, everything was based on me inspiring somebody or me motivating somebody. But he was like, it's a world of people that's looking at that and it's making them hate you. You know what I'm saying? He said, and I know they're looking at it, it's a world of people that's looking at that and it's making them hate you. You know what I'm saying? He said, and I know they're looking at it like it's ignorant. He said, I know what you're doing. But he's like, it's two different sides of that. And some people will look down on you like, what the hell does this kid think he is? He thinks he's above the law.
Starting point is 00:27:57 He thinks, I don't think, I don't think I'm above the law. If I was above the law, I would never have stepped in prison. I wouldn't be on probation 11 years. I would never follow a rule. I don't think like that. But that's the inspiration I thought the kids missing. That's why I put that out in All-Star. It was like the kids had not seen that in the way that they were seen. And when I was growing up,
Starting point is 00:28:15 there was people that we always seen that used to be like, I want to be like him. And what they're seeing now is I want to be a druggie to some extent. I want to be tattoos all over my face. I want to do that. Not just the inspiration. Yo, I'm from Philly. I work my ass off. That's easier to do than get money.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Yeah, but he worked hard to get money. But the main thing is, from reading the mail, a lot of these younger people, they watch me look failure right in their face. They look at any situation I came about in the industry and still like, all right, what? I'm still posting every day. What? Damn, my mom got a new house.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Damn, I just got a new car. And I'm still posting every day. What? Damn. My mom got a new house. Damn. I just got a new car. And I'm using that. It's actually, it's not a cover-up, but it's just like a blanket to like, for myself, like, I'm still doing good. Even when everybody like, yo, this is, I had people ask me, are you okay about Twitter and stuff like that? I'm like, am I okay?
Starting point is 00:29:01 What? I did time in prison being locked in a room 24 hours a day shackled from the ankle like if you take a step your ankles getting cut type stuff like of course it some people it can affect you if you let it affect you but this is not a real problem to where real problems like where i come from a real problem is different than somebody talking about you on the internet and i'm like when, when I'm stepping out in the street, I still got a base of people that show me a lot of love. So I was just letting the love overpower the negative stuff.
Starting point is 00:29:33 And really, like, I see a lot of people, like I said, when I came home, like everything, y'all know Instagram, is you play victim and you win. This is the new thing. And I don't really like that because there's a lot of real victims out there that's really going through real stuff. Like you got people really killing themselves and really going through real stuff that they ain't really jumping on that social media because there's so many people doing it now.
Starting point is 00:29:57 If I get on this joint and cry, let me get on this in some way and be crying about going to prison. No, seriously, though. I saw when you said that on Angie yesterday. I'm like, damn, he got robbed at gunpoint. Yeah, but I'm not really talking about him, though. I'm talking about regular people, like even people I know, like people I'm cool with.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I be telling them, don't be putting nobody care about that. No, seriously, though. For real. Like, even, like, a lot of people die in our neighborhood you see when they post people on instagram you got everybody posting them and and then a day later nobody really cares nobody really cares about that man got a three-year-old daughter right it's just like a thing to do it's it's a it was a thing for certain people like it was a lot of real love and real support but it was trendy to say free free a certain person or do that.
Starting point is 00:30:48 You know what I'm saying? I would say a lot of it is real, but a lot of it is, I don't know. I did a time and came back and was looking at social media, and I'm like, hey, I was really wild in there. But the inspiration should come from what a lot of people don't see is the fact that you sat for so long and was able to still keep your family going.
Starting point is 00:31:08 Like, you had enough where, yeah, you bought jewelry and cars and flew private, but you had enough in the stash and enough investments where it was like,
Starting point is 00:31:15 if something does happen, my family's good. Yeah, you never saw none of the dream chasers looking bummy out here. No, you never did. And people don't see that as inspiration.
Starting point is 00:31:22 They got bigger change than me right now. And you know what? With our homies, we do go through real stuff. Everybody wasn't on top of the world. Don't believe that. We had to. They just weren't crying about it on social media.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Yeah, you can't. What you going to do? You going to call Rick Ross? What? What you going to do? Yeah. We hustlers, first and foremost. And like with us, this ain't no camp over this, John.
Starting point is 00:31:47 It's not. Even, like, with artists, I tell the other young artists coming up, I'm like, yo, I be borrowing jewelry, but I be trading that stuff, too. I've been in the game for seven years. I make some good trades. You might see a watch get pulled. You might see a jet. I still jump on Delta, too, man.
Starting point is 00:32:03 It's serious because, y'all know, I had up and down points in this rap game. I done won a year without really getting a bunch of money in. I'm in the studio locked in trying to dedicate all my time to making some better music than I made last year, so I can't really get no money. Or the judge telling me I can't travel for six months. Like, I can't travel for six months. Six months in the studio, three months of house arrest.
Starting point is 00:32:28 I done missed two years straight almost. Of course, college is a lawyer. Without even getting no money for real. And paying for lawyers isn't cheap either. Then I dropped my album. I ended up couldn't travel for three more months. And then she told me I couldn't travel for three months. After I couldn't travel, she was like,
Starting point is 00:32:42 we're going to figure out what you could do after the cases are resolved. Both of the cases got threw out. And I still got locked up, actually. So it was really draining. It was a real thing for me. I'm like, I'm sitting in here. My bill is $60,000, $70,000 a month. I'm sitting in prison. And that's what I was thinking about. Yo, come on. Seriously, you might want to buy that
Starting point is 00:32:59 Rafe. I don't want that, John. I'm like, what the hell? Did you have to sell some cars and stuff? No, I ain't selling my watches. I got a bunch of watches. $100,000. Go ahead, get $100,000 for that watch and go pay somebody bills for nine months. So you had to do that? You had to sell jerseys?
Starting point is 00:33:15 I did it, but I didn't have to do it. I'm a hustler. People know you can buy my watch off my wrist. If you want to say you bought me a a watch, I'll tell you right now. Go ahead. Yeah, give me such and such. Go ahead. You got that.
Starting point is 00:33:27 I mean, we posted on Instagram for you and all that. And I go right back to the store and get another one. All right, we got more Meek Mill when we come back. Let's get into a Meek Mini Mix. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was a Meek Mill Mini Mix. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:33:41 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Meek Mills here. When can you work again, though? When can you get back on the road? I'm working. I'm performing. You can perform.
Starting point is 00:33:51 You can perform this weekend. You have to just get permission ahead of time. I was on my, like, everybody like, yo, what's up with you, man? When you rapping, what's going on? I'm like, I'm going to get to that. I'm going to get to that. I've only been out two weeks. First week, I dedicated to getting my head right.
Starting point is 00:34:04 I was away from my son, my family, all that time. So there's certain things I had to out two weeks. First week, I dedicated to getting my head right. I was away from my son, my family all that time, so there's certain things I had to get in order. Now, this week, there was a lot of press and a lot of people reaching out about my situation, and I feel like it's only right to reach back. Like, I'm not becoming straight. I always tell people, like, don't go too crazy, a Meek Mill thinking I'm activist, straight.
Starting point is 00:34:22 No, I'm representing the cause. I got a purpose for something, but still, at the same time, I got to be Meek Mill and continue to do what I got to do, the mission I'm activist. No, I'm representing the cause. I got a purpose for something, but still, at the same time, I got to be Meek Mill and continue to do what I got to do. That's what I want to know. With the music, are you going to be J. Cole? No, I can't be J. Cole. J. Cole is J. Cole. I'm coming. I tell people
Starting point is 00:34:37 my music, I might start talking hurt. You know what I'm saying? I might talk anger. When Tupac was like, America eat his babies, y'all going to make me go crazy. He said, I'm still smiling. Yeah, it's them thoughts still inside, deep inside. Because you got to be angry if you've been sent to prison four or five times. I was watching the Dateline special.
Starting point is 00:34:54 It seemed like she gave you some breaks throughout the years, though. I ain't getting no break because I ain't pointing no gun at no cop. I should have never committed a crime to begin with. But no black, and this is for anybody that's in the courtroom, because now I just feel like I can speak. Any black judge, and this goes for any race judge, them cops coming in talking about somebody pointed a gun at them at nighttime and ain't a single shot fired, nobody's hit.
Starting point is 00:35:20 You were supposed to kill me if I aimed a gun. If I read my transcripts, nobody, the media ain't getting that. He pointed a gun at me. He chased me around the car like, what? Come on, stop. For what? And the DA like, he wanted to protect this drug operation. How can you protect a drug operation? At this time, I got
Starting point is 00:35:37 locked up. I had $13 in my pocket. I was a brooks and niggas in the house. You see when I had a napkin, basically, I was dusty at the time. Protect the drug operation. How am I going to protect it if I'm going to get shot 45 times? You'll get shot for pulling out a cell phone. So imagine you point a gun at a child.
Starting point is 00:35:52 What about the failed drug test though? Yeah, I actually was addicted to drugs. I got addicted to the drugs along the lifestyle. You become famous and you become the only one from your family tree that's sending money out of your whole area, it's a lot of pressures that come with that. A lot of these celebrities, they come with pressures.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Mine ain't. I got a fat stomach. I don't need light for it now. I'm going to get in the gym. Seriously, though. Everybody got their own battles. That's why I was saying battles. I'm not even being funny. How'd you start with the opioids?
Starting point is 00:36:25 I was actually going to the dentist and I was, I got two of my wisdom teeth pulled and I started taking them. At the time, later on, a girl gave me a perk.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Yeah, this is going to make me, this is going to have you going in for hours. That's some Philly shit though, right? No, that ain't no Philly shit. No, hell, Philly what?
Starting point is 00:36:41 I thought they'd be on personal. Everybody take perks city to city. You crazy? What drive y'all think these little kids talking about in these records? Molly, whatever that is. Yeah, no. See, me, I never had Molly in my life.
Starting point is 00:36:55 That's a man-made drug. I thought it was okay. I wouldn't be addicted. I wouldn't hurt me because it's a pill that a doctor would prescribe you. And, you know, a girl gave it to me one day. Yeah, this is going to make you f*** for an hour. This is that. Yeah, let me try this.
Starting point is 00:37:08 This is a pill that the doctor would give me if I got two feet. Why you got that kind of time, Meek? To f*** for an hour? Yeah, sometimes you got to go over. I make girls fall in love with me off Perks. Perks is serious. So I actually got my body. It's like a body hot.
Starting point is 00:37:22 It's basically dope and a pill. And we came up amongst the drug game and watching people, mothers and aunts, being melted by drugs. So we really know the effects that it really do to people. And, you know, I just thought that it was just a pill that the doctor could prescribe you. And I got addicted.
Starting point is 00:37:38 And it wasn't like a mental thing. Like, it's like when you don't take it, your body shutting down. Right. So they ain't like, even the laws that with the governor, they like, if you're addicted to opioids, just like heroin addicts, all types of, it's an addiction.
Starting point is 00:37:51 You shouldn't go to jail for addiction. You should be in rehabilitation. Because in jail, they got the same drugs they got on the street. In jail, I had a choice if I wanted to take Percocet, smoke weed, or do anything. Me, I thought that was a waste of life. You're already like the walking dead,
Starting point is 00:38:06 the land of no responsibilities. Why be high? What made you get help? What made you get help? What made you say, I'm going to put myself in the rehab or this or? I had a PO.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I had got a new PO. My last PO, she was like black. She was like kind of ghetto, screaming, like just talk to you crazy. Iyanla Vanzant type shit? What's that?
Starting point is 00:38:24 Oh, you don't fix my life? Iyanla Vanzant type sh**. What's that? Iyanla, fix my life. You never seen her? No, she worse than what? No, I don't know. This is a whole nother level. She wasn't trying to help you. Can I go see my son?
Starting point is 00:38:32 What? No, you can't go see your son. Yo, why you talking to me like this, man? Like you just a probation officer. Not saying like you like on a lower person, but like you have a job just like we all have. What? What? What?
Starting point is 00:38:45 I'm like, all right, miss. I'm not telling her What? What? What? I'm like, alright, miss. I'm not telling her I got no drug. She gonna send you to jail. First thing smoking. They moved me to Montgomery County. Montgomery County is a suburban area where people got money at. The probation officers and stuff, they don't care about no Meek Mill coming up in here.
Starting point is 00:39:01 My PO probably never seen my Instagram probably once or twice. And somebody probably showed her. Mr. Williams, you had a dirty yarn. You want help? I'm going to ask you right now. I want you to be straightforward with me. Yeah, I want help right now.
Starting point is 00:39:15 But I don't want to be in a program amongst 50 people and got to explain my business as a public figure in front of 50 people because I'm not going to really deal with the problem. And she was like, all right, we're going to work things out. And usually in Philadelphia, if I said something like that, they'd be like, no, he trying to get over on the system. I had some doctors come to my house in Atlanta where I was staying at, give me IVs. Like, you got to flush your body and, like, readjust your body. Done deal. Never took a Percocet
Starting point is 00:39:46 ever again in my life because that wasn't really me you know what I'm saying it always was a battle I never did a Percocet straight through my whole probation but
Starting point is 00:39:53 sometimes stuff got rough this is where it was at even as all musicians to make music you dig deep like you dig deep down like I don't know
Starting point is 00:40:02 if people know like Prince he died from opioids. It was Percocets. He was a victim. He wasn't a criminal. He shouldn't have went to jail if he would have got court taken. He shouldn't have went to jail. He was
Starting point is 00:40:13 a victim. Was the pussy you went out worth it? Yes, it was extremely worth it. For real. It was serious. I felt like I had to work harder. Now, do you miss Nikki? No. Damn, why you go work harder. Now, do you miss Nikki? No. Damn, why you go from was the f***ing good to you miss Nikki?
Starting point is 00:40:29 I thought that was a great segue. Personally, I thought that was a great segue. Like, look, I don't got no problem with her, though. That's my whole thing. Like, I make that known. Like, me, I was at points where I was, like, a little out of character and doing, because I'm getting high. I'm going to places where I'm out of character.
Starting point is 00:40:44 I don't got no problem with her. Anybody you seen I had a problem with, all that is in my mind. What'd you say? You have a clean slate now, no problem. Yeah, with me, unless you trying to bring these things to me and I can't escape it, I ain't going to run. That's different than Screep Beef, though. That was a relationship.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Yeah, well, I've been ain't had no problem with it. I stated that before. I was supposed to come to Breakfast Club last time. I was a relationship. Yeah. Well, I've been ain't had no problem with it. I stated that before. I was supposed to come to Breakfast Club last time. I was late. I would have stated the same thing before I went to prison. I don't have a problem with somebody I used to love and somebody I was in a relationship with. Now what about, I see
Starting point is 00:41:17 you and Wale, y'all cleaned up your beats before you went in. Yeah, Wale, he's family. You know what I mean? That's the first people I started making money with, getting rich with. So, you know what I mean? That's the first people I started making money with, getting rich with. So, you know what I mean? We just had to make, like, an agreement. Like, yo, anything going on, man, all that public. Because when I was doing my little rap thing, he was like, man, Meek.
Starting point is 00:41:35 Meek doing it. I'm like, yo, call me and tell me that first. Even if somebody see me, if you see me, like, bidding with a rapper or something on Instagram, nine times out of ten, I talk to him about that first on the phone. Like, hey, what you doing such and such in public? And we laughed about it. And I went on my phone and did something funny or said something.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Talked to me. It was just basically on that. And that's why I'm like, man, you just. He was speaking about me and Nikki in, like, an interview. And I'm like, I would never speak on my homies and their girlfriends in no interview, especially without talking to them about it. And it just offended me a little bit. You know me, I'm emotional.
Starting point is 00:42:11 People say he too emotional because if it could have been times I'm on probation, my freedom wouldn't lie. I got a son and a mom in the house. Somebody jump you in a fight, you think I'm going to jump in there while they're there? You think I'm going to let them get roads on? Hell no. It's never going to happen. Nowadays, I got new boundaries where I can't really help anybody
Starting point is 00:42:30 except for my family. But at the time, I'm emotional because I go all out for people that's good with me. If I see anything, I'm just like, especially if I was high at the time, first thing I don't even think, I just react. I'll rip. So yeah, that's what it was. That's my brother. Alright, when we come back, yes, we usually
Starting point is 00:42:48 do the rumors, but we're going to push rumors back a little bit because Meek's here. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club is back. Back where I want to be. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, usually we do's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Now, usually we do the rumors right here, but Meek Mill is here. He's in the building. Yee. Has Drake reached out? No, I ain't talked to him yet. I seen him on FaceTime the other day. They was with Ruggs, and it was good energy. He shouted you out, though.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Yeah, I was about to say that. That was good energy. He put good energy in the air. What happened, what happened. We moved past that. I think we'll have a conversation good energy in the air. What happened, what happened. We moved past that. I think we'll have a conversation or something when we see each other and get it going
Starting point is 00:43:29 and keep it moving in life. I would think that Drake would reach out because it seems like he wants to really make men's... I don't feel like he wants to. It's just that as grown men, you know what I mean? It's been two years.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Two years. How long should this be going on and still moving? Because even during that time, I ain't spoke to you since then. Why didn't you reply back with rap? I did. I did reply back.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I'm talking about like immediately, though. Because that's what we was waiting on. Because I was sitting back and just monitoring the internet. I'm trying to figure out the internet. That's a whole new world to me. Like, well, we rap. It's like, you go in. You say what you want.
Starting point is 00:44:00 I'm on the internet. They calling my PO. I've got bloggers talking about it. I done threatened Drake. I don't even know how to talk no more. What I'm going the internet. They calling my PO. I've got bloggers talking about it. I done threatened Drake. I don't even know how to talk no more. What I'm going to say? When we battle in our hood, we want to make you look in the mirror and be like, am I a real nigga?
Starting point is 00:44:12 Dang, this dude just said, what about my sister, my mom? You know how it was in my era. It confused me. I'm like, hold on. Let me step back and see what's going on. I done stepped in the world where I don't even know how to handle this the way that I would usually handle it. Even like something like a war paint or something like that. It's like, it's
Starting point is 00:44:29 what we do at its finest, but I had to adjust. I definitely just walked my way back. If I was here and things slowed up and took me here, I'm like, sh**, I'm gonna walk step by step. I'm hot. I'm gonna keep it going. I'm watching people make meal done. It's impossible for me to be done. Did he really have Back to back playing
Starting point is 00:44:45 Through the hotel One day when you was there Yeah they said That you and Nicky Was in a hotel And he was in the floor Above you playing Back to back
Starting point is 00:44:52 He said that in one of the records I'm looking forward Yeah I don't know I was We went to Toronto That time Like we was on tour No it wasn't
Starting point is 00:45:01 Nothing like that Now I asked about Ross Cause they said that You know one time you and Ross weren't seeing eye to eye, and I guess they said when. I thought it was they said it was a time when you pieced things out with 50, and
Starting point is 00:45:13 Ross was mad about that. Was that ever true? I never heard that from Ross. We ain't never had that situation. And me, I look at it as if Ross was to go talk to Drake or somebody, anybody that, that's rapper stuff, man. I come from, like, real deal with, like, you got a problem with somebody, somebody got hurt, somebody died, and that was that. I be on real type of time.
Starting point is 00:45:33 I tell 52 is facing, yo, all this stuff, we run into each other, we crash, you got people with you, I got people with you. We both make money. We both doing our thing. We actually feed people and employ people. Let's stop playing games with each other like we ready to go to prison for 55 years. That's not even really an option for rappers. And that goes for anybody.
Starting point is 00:45:54 I see Game Tomorrow, Whack 100, any of them, yo, let's talk on the side. Let's have some words. Yo, look, this what I'm on. I don't know what you on. And I kind of I think everybody would be in the same place. I just came from the penitentiary where life was, where people made one mistake and they got life in prison.
Starting point is 00:46:12 All they homies start squeezing that gun and they ain't had nothing to do with it. And they got conspiracy, got 25, 30 years. That's not really what none of us really want. And the way you go about that is totally different. Like, you look at every other genre of music. Ain't no rock stars squeezing on whoever rock stars. Ain't nobody getting shot in different genres, country music or nothing like that.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Lamar and Beanie would be scrapping nowadays. Yeah, they'd be getting it down. I ain't going to lie. They're probably some of the toughest guys right now. What about Beanie? Beanie? I seen Beanie the other day. We had our words.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Yo, what's up? You good? Love, man. Happy to see you home. That was that. That was a small misunderstanding. That was another component to somebody else. It wasn't really based around me.
Starting point is 00:46:54 But, you know, the media, even like with my judge, she would see media stuff like that and not understanding that we are from the same area. We are from the same neighborhood. And I'm with y'all, too, but I came to the club with you and y'all two started fighting. And now I'm in the middle. I could be breaking it up or something more. Anything happened.
Starting point is 00:47:13 Meek Mill and his homies fighting Charlamagne. But really, I just came with him. But y'all two got a problem. You understand? And it was small misunderstanding. He passed that. He ordered to me. I looked up to him coming up my whole life.
Starting point is 00:47:26 It's not a secret. I've been saying this throughout that whole situation. What is the point? Where do we get with this? We got to figure something out at one point. And that's what everybody like. I watch all the young boys. First time I see them in person and they ain't around 100 people.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Yo, man, look, you don't want that. I told Bobby Smyda a long time ago. Actually, the day before he got locked up. It was the day before he got locked up. He came to see me. I just came home. Yo, all that gang banging and 100 dudes around you on camera. I said, them people will put you under the jail somewhere
Starting point is 00:47:59 and nobody ain't going to be able to see you. Next day, we looking at the news. He locked up. I still answer the phone for Bobby Smyrna to this day. No matter what I got going on, I talk to Rowdy, Bobby, they call on the three-way, I'm still going to give them the same words. And that's just what I'm at with. I think that's where Hov was at 10 years ago.
Starting point is 00:48:20 With the younger rappers, everybody looked up to Hov. All the young guys, whether they said it or not, a lot of these guys, I feel like they look at me a certain way and I feel like I can voice my opinion. I've been through everything.
Starting point is 00:48:32 I ain't got to fabricate nothing. I don't got to act like a certain type of way or a certain type of person. I feel like I could just get that type of game out. How you lose all that weight so fast, man?
Starting point is 00:48:41 When you came home, was it two weeks ago? I wasn't really fat for real. I had on 4X pants. I had on a 3X shirt. My face was actually fatter than this. My face probably still fat. But seeing my face
Starting point is 00:48:54 with the clothes on like that, it just looked like I was super fat. I know everybody was like, he chubby. Everybody thought I was going to come out looking like Gucci. No, I was stressing. I'm in the joint,
Starting point is 00:49:04 eating up a storm, just trying to take my mind off the world because the trend. It's a culture shock, man, when you come from doing what you want and then being shackled. People don't understand. They're just like, he in jail. I'm a celebrity, so when I first come through, they got me locked in 24 hours.
Starting point is 00:49:19 It was really mind-boggling. So when I came home, I was just adjusting. I came home on a helicopter. I was actually in the cell watching the news. Meek Mill is up for bail. I'm like, what? I jumped up. The lady was like, we was actually locked in. She came to my cell and like, pack your
Starting point is 00:49:36 stuff. We're getting you out of here because we don't want no commotion. When we got out, we rode like a half a block. I was looking out the window to the side. I'm looking at the fans. I'm like, people really waiting outside for me to get out of jail? I'm still, like, humbled by that. I can't believe this. I'm surprised you packed anything up.
Starting point is 00:49:50 I packed my mail, your legal mail, because, you know, you got real scheme, all right? This dude's got 30, 40 years in, no contact with family. They want to write. They will steal your mail, write your family members back, and try to get one of your overweight cousins and like you understand what I'm saying? Like
Starting point is 00:50:06 people focus on stuff like that and try to like take advantage see? That's crazy. Get one of your fat cousins. No like they would try to
Starting point is 00:50:13 they would try to not like that they would try to like target people who think who they think that don't have high self esteem and
Starting point is 00:50:20 they would just try to take advantage and not saying let's get this clear in this interview. I love big women. All my cousins. All my cousins that's big.
Starting point is 00:50:30 All my family members that's big, they got high self-esteem. They come. We don't play them type games in my family. Ain't no you, you. And that's it. We're going to love you for you. You, you, you do what you want. You better bag a billionaire if you can.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Do whatever you want to do. How did you watch this football?? Did you watch the Super Bowl? In my cell, it was two moments. Super Bowl and Beyonce saying free meat. That was the two days that I wasn't in jail. How sick was you watching the Super Bowl? Thinking about all the festivities of the week? I wasn't sick because it was in Minnesota. It was like
Starting point is 00:50:57 it was snowing out. Nobody, no parties. Ain't really cracking like that. Like jail, it makes you jealous. It could be Memorial Weekend and it rain, you'd be like, all right, it's raining. Everybody ain't really out having fun without me. But I was really happy, for real, for real. I was happy that the fact that Eagles was in the Super Bowl,
Starting point is 00:51:15 and I was happy the fact that an organization like that was supporting me. You know what I'm saying? Where I come from, that's heavy to have, like, a national sports team support you through a time like that. Playing your song and everything. Yeah, that was different for me. I ain't never seen that. When the Khaled song dropped and you heard Beyonce's verse.
Starting point is 00:51:33 I played that drum back. Like, I know Beyonce ain't singing no s*** like this out of her mouth. Like, I had to play it back again. Like, what? She in the hood screaming Free Meek. And I look at that as, like, that's mega support from Jay and Beyoncé because they don't have to say it. You know, Beyoncé ain't shouting no niggas out in jail.
Starting point is 00:51:50 I took that. It was like, damn, God, really working in my favor. You got B talking about Free Meek Mill. That was like, that was a great day. Like, I'm listening to the song Jay-Z. And Jay is my man, so I'm kind of getting used to the Jay-Z thing. Jay shout me out. I'm like, damn, I'm amped.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Right. Then as the song going on, I'm like, I'm amped Right Then as the song going on I'm like I'm listening to Beyonce She say she's free me I'm like Damn this is JNB And the support like that To put you on that platform
Starting point is 00:52:14 And give you that type of support These people got a lot of influence It basically helped me save my life We are looking forward to see What you have coming up Because I know you have Good energy around you man Organization that you guys
Starting point is 00:52:24 I got some aggressive rap coming in You know what I mean I got a lot to talk what you have coming up. Yeah, some good energy around you, man. I got some aggressive rap coming in, you know what I mean? I got a lot to talk about, a lot of music to drop. We're going to get things going and do what we do, man. Get back to the music, have some fun, and move with a purpose, I guess. All right. Well, it's Meek Mill. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Hey, yo, too, man. Make sure the interview's still rolling. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just try to be free today and talk and give my opinion. Don't take my words and twist it up and try to make me into a bad guy, man. I'm just trying to make things. No, for real, because we had a long conversation. I got to go back to y'all's interviews and look at it.
Starting point is 00:52:55 They're going to edit when you said you took the perk for an hour and then started talking about Nicki. They're going to say Meek Mill said he slept with Nicki for an hour after taking a perk. That's what they're having. Any girl that knows, they know they've been around that perk ever, they know what's up with me. Yeah, you ain't even,
Starting point is 00:53:09 the internet ain't even got to tell them. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's all be a donkey, because right now you want some real donkey shit. It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit me with the heel. Did she get donkey today? Please tell me. heel. Did she get donkey in the name, please, Debbie?
Starting point is 00:53:26 Absolutely. I have become donkey of the day. That's a breakfast club, bitches. You're a donkey. All right, listen, man. Charlemagne Tha God here. I'm on vacation. I don't give a damn what y'all think about that because I deserve it.
Starting point is 00:53:38 Now, the Breakfast Club is in 80-plus markets in 150 countries, so we have a lot of new listeners who probably don't even know who Charlemagne Tha God is. So use my time off to catch up on some of my past work, okay? Okay. If you new here, I do a segment every day called Donkey of the Day, donkey as in jackass, and that's when I give someone the credit they deserve for
Starting point is 00:53:55 being stupid, so if you never heard of it, this is new to you, but if you are a regular listener, then this is an oldie but goodie, because it's the best of the donkey of the day. Donkey of the Day goes to Rich Homie the Kid. Now, if you old like me, then you're content. Rich the Kid, man. Okay, I'm old.
Starting point is 00:54:10 All right, if you're old like me, then you're content not being in these streets, not being in these clubs. Some of these new rappers, I enjoy their music. Some of them I could care less. But if it's one thing you are entertained by, it is the antics of these youngins. And not too many rappers' antics bring me joy. Like that young boy from Philly, Lil Uzi Vert. Drop one of Clues bombs for Lil Uzi Vert.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Okay? A.K.A. the Sassy Savage. I love that little boy. All right? It was the Roots picnic in Philly, so a lot of artists were posted up all over Philly. And a couple of those artists were Rich Daquan, homie, and Lil Uzi Vert. Now, I am glad Revolt TV is back because you can see Lil Uzi pulling up on Rich homie Daquan. They got the video playing.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Play the video. Now, these guys have been beefing for a minute. Billboard posted a little timeline earlier this year, and apparently the beef was because the kid Rich, his homie Daquan, wanted Lil Uzi to sign with him, and Uzi wasn't with it, and they've been exchanging words ever since. Did Uncle Sharla get that right, kids?
Starting point is 00:55:04 Huh? Put me on. I think I got that right. Fill me in. Nevertheless, it they've been exchanging words ever since. Did your Uncle Charlotte get that right, kids? Huh? Put me on. I think I got that right. Fill me in. Nevertheless, it doesn't matter why they were beefing. What matters is that sassy, savage little Uzi pulled up, and he wanted all the smoke. Okay? You know what? Smoke isn't a proper term for Uzi.
Starting point is 00:55:17 Smoke is dirty. All right? Uzi is more like dust. Gold dust. All right? Uzi pulled up with pink running sneakers on and some loose sweats. This is
Starting point is 00:55:29 how I know he meant business because Uzi's pants are usually form-fitting. And these were loose and he had on a white tee. If you were watching on Revolt, you can see that Uzi had Vaseline on his face and his hair and a ponytail. And if you listen closely, you can hear Uzi quoting another Philly legend, Jill Scott. If you listen closely, you can hear Uzi quoting another Philly legend, Jill Scott.
Starting point is 00:55:45 If you listen closely, you can hear him tell Quan the rich kid, sugar honey girl, fly, fly away. I've been a lady uptown now. I don't know how much more I can take, all right? Queens shouldn't swing
Starting point is 00:55:55 if you know what I mean, but I'm about to take my earrings off, give me some Vaseline. That's how you know Uzi wanted all the action, all right? Uzi told Rich the homie, you better back down before you get smacked down.
Starting point is 00:56:09 You better chill. And Rich homie kid didn't seem like he wanted any issues in this video, okay, when they were on the street. But in another video, in a surprising turn of events, both of these guys ended up in Starbucks. Now, this is confusing because why are all these Negroes in Starbucks? All right? And that day off for anti-bias training Starbucks had
Starting point is 00:56:27 might have worked too well because all them Negroes should be in jail right now, all right? 911 should have been called immediately. These rappers are having a kerfuffle over Frappuccinos, all right? Couple of shots of espresso, got y'all hype and now y'all want to fight? Well, got Uzi want to fight because
Starting point is 00:56:43 now we are getting to the reason that the homie rich is getting donkey today see somebody swung at rich and it looked like they connected and he immediately jumped behind the counter at starbucks and started to make a triple mocha frappuccino now my name is charlamagne the god okay i have been punched on camera before the can i get a drop video is online for your viewing pleasure you can watch it i dude punched me in the back of my head and i took off running because I didn't know what was behind me. And when I did turn around, it was four or five guys rushing to jump me. So I proceeded to plug walk away from that situation and ran right into this radio station and told everybody what happened.
Starting point is 00:57:16 I didn't put no sauce on it. I didn't talk tough when I got on the radio. I didn't act like I didn't get touched. And I let everyone know I ran away. You know why? Because I saw the camera. What the hell was I going to lie for when everybody could see exactly what happened? I didn't get touched. And I let everyone know I ran away. You know why? Because I saw the camera. What the hell was I going to lie for when everybody could see exactly what happened?
Starting point is 00:57:37 Well, homie the rich should have learned from me because this is him after we all witnessed him clearing the counter at Starbucks after getting swung on by Lil Uzi. Let's hear it. He pulled up and did what? Walk around Philly like this. Walk around Philly like this. Pulled up and did what? Pulled up and did what? Pulled up and did what? He pulled up and snuffed you.
Starting point is 00:57:49 All right? Maybe kid homie suffers from short-term memory loss. Maybe he didn't know the camera was rolling. Maybe he didn't think we were going to see the footage of him jumping behind the counter to make an iced Starbucks blonde cold foam cappuccino and to avoid the wrath of the sassy savage Lil Uzi. Look, Rich Kwanwan in life you have to live your truth when you live your truth nobody can use your truth against you i mean truth is that video uzi swinging on you and you jumping behind the counter will be used against
Starting point is 00:58:14 you but when you get online and lie and say things like this pulled up and did what walk around philly like this walk around philly like this pull it up Philly like this. Pull it up and did what? Pull it up and did what? It just makes the situation even worse. Okay, one thing you kids hate doing in this era is taking L's. Alright? L's build character. Okay?
Starting point is 00:58:38 Social media allows you all to live your lie instead of living your truth, but the thing is, you can't lie when we all saw what happened. Okay? The truth needs no defense, only witnesses. And we all witnessed you get punked by the sassy savage, Lil Uzi. So please give Rich Daquan homie the kid, the biggest hee-haw. His name is Rich Daquan. It's Rich the Kid. I give up on telling him. Rich Homie Quan and Rich the Kid.
Starting point is 00:59:09 Two different people. If you say so. If you say so. My goodness. Have you ever seen them together in the same place? No. Can you prove any of this? I don't think you can prove any of this, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:59:19 No, but they're two different people. Hey, man, if you say so. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hey, how you doing? It's Kevin. Kevin, what's your question for you, bro?
Starting point is 00:59:35 My question is, me and my wife been married for three years now. Okay. And of course, before we were married, we had lives. We trying to get together now and find somebody to have a threesome with. But don't want to have a threesome with somebody I had one with. Don't want to have one with somebody she had somebody with. We want to find somebody new.
Starting point is 00:59:54 How can we go about doing this? Well, do you want to go out and find somebody in person or do you want to do it online? Either or. We're just trying to find somebody. I prefer to meet somebody in person. Okay. Either or. We're just trying to find somebody. I prefer to meet somebody in person. Okay, so I think just like you would go out to, you know, a lounge or something like that to meet somebody. If you were a single person, you guys can fill out the situation like that. Because they do have websites, though, that you can go to that's specifically for finding a third party.
Starting point is 01:00:22 FYI. Oh, wow. Yeah, so you already know that they're with it. And I do agree with you that you shouldn't do that with somebody that you guys are close with because that can get touchy and awkward when you guys... Yeah, because you'll feel weird if it's one of her friends and she's hanging out and she won't want that person around.
Starting point is 01:00:36 It might ruin their friendship. It might ruin things. So it is usually better to find somebody outside of your circle to do that. And when you have a threesome, it's going to be two women and you. Just checking. Come on now, yeah. I mean, some people do different things. No judgment here. Never know, bro. No judgment.
Starting point is 01:00:52 But, Kevin, the other rule is that she has to pick the third person. It can't be you. I agree with you 100%, but my wife is the type that she honestly wants me to go and pick the person. I feel a little awkward
Starting point is 01:01:07 doing it, but I'm okay because we've known each other for so long. Let her pick and then you approve. Okay, I'm with it. You just have to approve. So she can say, okay, what about her? What about her? And then you can, you know, choose or approve from there. And then the rules are after that, no keeping in contact.
Starting point is 01:01:24 You're not allowed to contact that woman outside of the two of you doing what y'all have to do, and that's it. And it can't be in your house. You guys gotta get a hotel room, and when it's over, it's over. And she has to set the rules. If she tells you no kissing with the other woman, no penetration,
Starting point is 01:01:40 but you can watch or only whatever. Whatever the rules are that she sets, you have to abide by those rules. All right, he knows all the information. You sound like she's been in one before. Well, I actually have read this book by Eleni Spicer about how to have a proper threesome. Why are you reading that book?
Starting point is 01:01:54 Because she was on my podcast. Oh, okay. She laid down the rules. I'm sorry to interrupt you, but it's like we're on the website because of course we didn't do the bar thing. Of course we didn't do the club thing. Sounds like you guys might need to take a trip to the Bunny Ranch or something.
Starting point is 01:02:07 S***, that sounds like a plan. I ain't even familiar with that. You know all the plans. I mean, we know that. You might want to try Ye, man. Dennis Hopp has been up here multiple times. You guys can actually choose somebody. The girls are tested.
Starting point is 01:02:18 You know, that might be a good idea. And you can tell them that we referred you here from the Breakfast Club. We'll give you a discount. I kind of like DJ Envy. did you come into uh detroit anytime soon oh g's always in detroit no i'm not doing that okay go for it you might have fun come play some cards play some space all night hey good luck to you guys i don't want i'm not interested but good luck i hope y'all work it out let's's play some spades. A secret way to say something, bro. There you go. Okay.

Starting point is 01:02:53 One thing. One thing before I go. One thing before I go. What's the website? Look it up. The Bunny Rants. Because you can go there and the women are all tested so you can pay for that service and they'll hook y'all up.

Hey, Jasmine. Ask Yee and Yee this morning. Good morning, Jasmine. Hey, Jasmine. Ask C&E this morning. Good morning, Jasmine.
Starting point is 01:03:29 I was asking because I've been single for two years, and I'm just getting back in the dating scene. And I've been kind of uncomfortable with dating now because I don't really know how anymore. So I want to know, like, what should I do? What do you mean you don't know how to date? All you got to do is show up, boo. It's not that easy because it's like little things that turns me off about a guy. Like what?
Starting point is 01:03:46 I don't know. It'll be something that he says or does. Or it's just, I don't know. It'll be something petty, but I need to get past those things. Have you been having sex over the past couple years? Yeah. Okay, then. So if you can have sex, you can date.
Starting point is 01:03:59 How you been letting these guys get the box? You just been giving it to them? They even been calling you? No, we been going on dates. But I'm just saying that story. They want to move to the next level, but I'm not it to them? They ain't been calling you? No, no. We been going on dates, but I'm just saying that's all right. They want to move to the next level, but I'm not ready. How do I? How old are you?
Starting point is 01:04:10 I'm 27. Oh, 27. Okay, so you just playing the field. You just having a little fun right now. Yeah, pretty much. You got three more years to be a hoe, so call us back in three years. I'm serious. You got three more years.
Starting point is 01:04:20 You got three more years to go through your hoe phase. After 30, you kind of can't hold like you want to. So should I just wait on making them want to go to the next level, or should I just do me? Listen, man. Just enjoy yourself. Absolutely. And if all else fails, just remember Laura Bencross. Oh, stop it.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Enjoy yourself, but I'm sure if that special somebody comes, you'll feel it. You'll know what that feels like. Okay. All right. Good luck. All right. Thank you. You're welcome, Mama. Hope we answered your question. Hello, know what that feels like. Okay. All right. Good luck. All right. Thank you.

Laura Bencroft.'all doing? 10 years of marriage. What are y'all doing tonight? Oh man, Laura Bencross. Well, I'm not going to work, so I worked
Starting point is 01:05:08 a 12-hour shift today, so we will have to do something this weekend. Where does he work at? He works at Public Distribution Center. You should take a long lunch break. You should drive over to Public Distribution Center, take him in the bathroom, and give him a fellatio
Starting point is 01:05:24 of no kind, and then pat him on his ass and go back to work. A fellatio of no kind? This is why he's like so religious to your radio station. I know he's cracking up now. What is fellatio of no kind? Because I know he's listening. He's going to say, you need to do what Charlamagne and DJ Envy said do.
Starting point is 01:05:39 You should do it. It's your anniversary. Surprise him. Pop him at his job. Push him in the bathroom. Give him some great fellatio. Smack him on his ass and say, have a great day. Let me give you one more tip. It's your anniversary. Surprise him. Pop him at his job. Push him in the bathroom. Give him some great fellatio. Smack him on his ass and say, have a great day. Let me give you one more tip.
Starting point is 01:05:48 I'll take notes. Let me give you one more tip. When he f***s off in that bathroom, I want you to look him dead in his eyes and say, Laura Bancroft. Oh, my God. Goodbye. Thank you, Mama. Have a good day, fellas.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Tell us how it goes tomorrow. All right. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Anonymous. Okay. Hey, Anonymous. What's your question for C&E? I want to know, okay, well, me
Starting point is 01:06:07 and my husband have been together for eight years. We'll be married to about four, one on five years now. And my question is, how do I get him to be ready for children? Because every year he wants to put it off another year. And then we get to this year and all of a sudden he doesn't want to do it again. He wants
Starting point is 01:06:23 to wait another year. And I'm confused because we don't have children. He's 35. I'm 32. And I'm not sure what the issue is. You ever heard of oops? No. He ain't never shot your club up by accident? Y'all still using condoms? No.
Starting point is 01:06:40 Oh, if y'all not using condoms, I'm going to be honest with you, your box might be kind of trash. Oh, stop it. Ain't nothing wrong with the box, Charlamagne. Nah, I'm going to be honest with you, your box might be kind of trash. Oh, stop it. No, the reason I said. Ain't nothing wrong with the box, Charlamagne. No, I'm going to be honest, man. If I'm hitting it raw every now and then, I'm going to shoot that club up just because. Just because I can't hold it.
Starting point is 01:06:52 Are you on the pill? I don't want to pull out. I was on the pill. I recently got off of it because I thought we were going to be ready. He said he was ready, and then he says he's not now. So I'm just like, okay, well, what's the issue? Repeat after me. Say, oops.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Oops. There you go. No, okay, well, what's the issue? Repeat after me. Say, oops. Oops. There you go. No, I thought I missed the pill there. I'm so sorry, baby. No, don't do that. That's trapping the man. Don't trap the man. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:07:14 They've been together eight years. They're married. There's no trapping. They're together for life. If y'all been together eight years and y'all having unprotected sex, it's only a matter of time, boo, unless something wrong furtively. Okay, other than that, y'all going to be fine. Just keep on doing what you're doing.
Starting point is 01:07:26 All right? You know what, Charlamagne? Thank you for being positive. I was worried calling you. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne, the guy we are, The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:07:39 Hi, good morning. This is Gary. How are you? Hey, Gary. How's it going, brother? I'm doing well, Envy. What's your question for Yee? I caught my wife cheating.
Starting point is 01:07:49 I've been with her for 11 years, and we've been married for a year and a half, and I was contemplating suicide at the time because I thought she would never do it, but I'm still struggling trying to find out if I should stay with her or not. I really love her, and I don't want to leave, but it's every day that I want to leave. Right. Well, first of all, I'm glad that you didn't do anything like commit suicide
Starting point is 01:08:12 because we would hate to not have you here on this planet with us, and I'm sure there's so many people that love you and care about you that would hate for something like that to happen. It would affect them so much. So you can't make rash decisions like that just because something terrible has happened in your life. And just know that other people have gone through what you've gone through and made it through that.
Starting point is 01:08:30 Yes. This is my second time going through this with my last wife. And I feel less worried like I'm doing something wrong. It's definitely not true. I'm going to be honest with you. Cheating is a very common thing in relationships. And you should never blame yourself because of somebody else's indiscretions. It seems more like
Starting point is 01:08:47 issues that they have. And I'm sure everybody in this room can attest to the fact that we've all been cheated on, right guys? No. I ain't never been cheated on by my wife. Cheated on by a girl when she was in college when she wasn't my wife. I can't relate to what you're going through, brother, and I don't want to feel your pain either. Charlamagne,
Starting point is 01:09:03 it hurts every day. I'm still struggling now, man. Yeah, Charlamagne, he was contemplating killing himself. I mean, brother, and I don't want to feel your pain either. Charlamagne, it hurts every day. I'm still struggling now, man. Yeah, Charlamagne, he was contemplating killing himself. I mean, I could imagine. When he asked you, you asked me a question. I gave an answer. You got cheated on, though. What you got to do is you got to remember that it's not you,
Starting point is 01:09:13 and what you have to do is you might have to go to church. You might have to go get some therapy. You might have to talk to somebody, but do you have any kids? I have a lot. Well, there you go. There's no reason to lose your life when so many people depend on you and so many people care about you. You've got to remember that.
Starting point is 01:09:27 And as far as your wife is concerned, has she apologized? Do you forgive her? Is she trying to be right? It's up in her ear. I mean, she doesn't say the word. I'm sorry. She shows with her actions. That's the type of person she is.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Are you staying with her? I think he's contemplating whether or not he should stay with her. But what I think you need to do is first of all, focus on you. Okay? Before you even can figure out what's going to happen in this relationship and how to move forward, you need to fix yourself and focus
Starting point is 01:09:56 on being confident in yourself and knowing that what someone else does does not define you, it defines them. So she has some issues that she needs to deal with. She has a lot of proving that she needs to do to you because if she cares about you and she loves you, she would not want to hurt you in the way that she does. And sometimes people can't even explain
Starting point is 01:10:13 why they've done the things that they've done. I'm sure that she didn't cheat on you because she doesn't love you or because, you know, you're not enough for her, but she's probably done that because of her own issues that she has within herself. Did she say why she cheated? I can't say
Starting point is 01:10:30 too much because people know who she is, but... Can we look at the bright side? You have the ultimate hall pass right now. The best way to get over a woman is to get on top of another one. Go get you some other one. Man, stop. That's not true.
Starting point is 01:10:46 I'm not like that anymore. That actually might make you feel a lot worse. Why would it make you feel worse? When you do something that's meaningless. Because he's stuck on his wife and he wants his family back. And he wants to make things right. You got to have a conversation and tell her how you feel. And she has to apologize. She has to understand that she was wrong.
Starting point is 01:10:59 And she has to be remorseful. She can't just say, okay, I'm sorry and keep it moving. It doesn't work like that. But what you need to do, sir, is you need to worry about yourself and do whatever you need to do to make yourself better and that is definitely
Starting point is 01:11:09 going to take time. Yes, ma'am. And you have to understand that of course you're going to be depressed. Of course you're hurt. Of course you're upset. You're a human being
Starting point is 01:11:15 and that's how you feel but it will pass. Does she still want to be with you? She does. She says she wants to be with me and she wants to be
Starting point is 01:11:23 the safer wife that I want but when you say stuff like that, I want you to be who you are. Amen. Just take your time and no matter what it is that you do, you don't have to make a decision right now. And the only way that she can prove herself to you is by time.
Starting point is 01:11:38 It might take years for you to feel like you can trust her again. But if she's dedicated and willing to do that, and that's up to you whether or not you want to allow her or give her that opportunity to prove herself, it's completely up to you. But in the meantime, you need to do things that are going to make you feel better about yourself,
Starting point is 01:11:55 about your life, to get your confidence back. Whatever it is that you have to do for yourself, you need to take the time to do that. You need to be selfish. And that being selfish... I know how to be. Go get another vagina. It's not going to be easy, but it'll take time, and you'll get through it, selfish. And that being selfish... I don't know how to be. Go get another vagina. It's not gonna be easy, but it'll take time and you'll get through it, bro.
Starting point is 01:12:07 And work on your mental health as well. Work on your mind. Work on all of those things. Okay, I still feel... Sometimes I still don't want to be here, but I have friends and family that helps me through it. And I promise you, as soon as you get some other vagina, you'll feel better. I don't know about that. And as far as your wife, the best apology is change behavior.
Starting point is 01:12:24 So she can say sorry, but she got to stop popping that poom-poom for other goons. And I just want to say one last thing. Just think about things that you've gone through in the past. You said your ex-wife cheated on you as well. You got over that, right?
Starting point is 01:12:34 I did, but I was in the hospital and it took a while. And you got through it. So all I'm saying is it does take a while, but you will get through it. You'll get through it. Just take time
Starting point is 01:12:43 and you have to make sure that you're here to make sure you get through it. How'd you get over your ex? You time, and you have to make sure that you're here to make sure you get through it. How'd you get over your ex? You got over your ex by what? Getting with another woman, right? I did not, Charlamagne. How'd you get over her then? Through the grace of God and in the hospital. No doubt. And after a while, you got with another woman, right?
Starting point is 01:12:56 When you're ready, you can do, make whatever decisions that you want to make. I'm not trying to rush to do that. And also, today's my birthday. Well, happy birthday, brother. Man, where you at so I can send you a prostitute? Where you at? Where you living? No, and my mother died on my birthday as well. Man, where you at so I can send you a prostitute? Where you living? And my mother died on my birthday as well. Oh, you know what? I'm going.
Starting point is 01:13:09 I'm leaving the room. Well, you know what? God bless you. You know what? We're going to put you on hold, man. And we're going to take your number and check up on you, man, and make sure everything is good, man. All right.
Starting point is 01:13:16 And I'm glad you and your wife are doing better, too. And V and I, thank you for everybody on that show. You have a good day. Don't hang up. Me and my wife, we've been going through it for six years, and there's ups, there's downs, but we push harder, and we both try to make it work. And I do what I have to do as a man to show that I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:13:32 And Envy actually had a situation where he, too, had to go to the hospital. Yeah, sometimes things happen, but we're going to put you on hold, all right? All right. Thank you both. You both have a good day. All right, brother. Happy birthday. It's that man's birthday.
Starting point is 01:13:43 He need a drink and a prostitute. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not.
Starting point is 01:13:58 No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
