It's Monday. Yes, it's Monday. Back to work week. Absolutely. It's always hard for me to sleep on Sunday night, man. Really? Why? I don't know.

I don't know if I'd be, like, anxious because of the week to come, but every Sunday night is just very, very difficult for me to sleep. It's been like that for a long time now. My weekend was a little hectic. Friday night, of course, my daughter had the prom, so she went to the prom. How was that? It was good. She said she had a good time.

The prom ended at 11. She was back home by 11.30. It was like a 20-minute drive to the prom, so she came right back. Oh, you knew the exact time and everything from the house to the prom, huh? And you know what I realized? That I really didn't have to worry because my dad came to the house to see her, huh? And you know what I realized? That I really didn't have to worry. Why? Because my dad came to the house to see her and my dad was worse than me. My dad

told the young man, he said, stop the music. He said, you know that's my number one granddaughter, right? You know I know where you live. And the kids started laughing like, he said, no, no, I really know where you live. Like, don't play with me. She better be home at 1130 or I'm going to come to your house. I was like, damn, dad. There's no joke. There's no laugh.

There's no funny. I looked back at him and said, well, I don't plan to have sex with her at the house. At my house. See? He probably would have shot you. Dad probably would have shot you. All right. But she got back. She looked beautiful. She had an amazing time. And then Sunday,

if any of you out there have little daughters, you know if they're in dance class, they have a recital, right? And they know when they're young, the recital is usually three hours long. And the bad part about the recital that's three hours long is your daughter, since she's the youngest, is usually the first five, so they expect you to stay the whole

recital. Nah. Nah, B. Nah, B. I'm going to give you the intermission. I give you the intermission. Intermission, we out. We out. But she had a recital. She did her damn thing. Shout to London. Shout to Madison. Had a great, great, great, great, great weekend.

Oh, and then I forgot real estate class. We held a real estate class for everybody out in Queens this weekend where we actually taught people how to get in the real estate business, what they need to look at from foreclosures to wholesaling to how to use somebody else's money to buy real estate. And I'm loving these classes because I'm starting to see younger and younger and younger individuals. When we first did it, it was like I would say 35 and over, but now I'm starting to see 18-year-olds there, 19-year-olds, 20-year-old,

people that just get a little bit of money or just want to get into the game and make money and have some wealth through real estate. We had a great class Sunday at St. John's, so shout out to everybody that came out. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Neo will be joining us, R&B singer Neo. He has an album out right now, so we're going to kick it with Neo a little bit later. I have not listened to Neo's album, man. I know Neo's album came out last Friday.

I didn't get a chance to listen to it. Yeah, also Gina Page. Gina Page. Now, I'm excited about this. The reason I'm excited about this is because a few weeks ago we took our African ancestry test. I took 23andMe a while back, and 23andMe told me that I'm 97% West African, so I'm really black. I appreciate that because every day I wake up and I say, how can I be more black today? But the fact that I'm 97% West African, I'm black as F.

Drop one of the clues bombs for me. But when Chadwick Boseman was here, he told us about African ancestry, and African ancestry goes a little bit deeper because it tells you what tribe you're from and what country you're from in Africa. So Gina will be here this morning to reveal those results for me and Envy. They didn't have a Latin America ancestry test for Envy, so he took an African one. Well, so hopefully today I will prove that I am African-American and I will come from African descent.

Well, everything traces back to Africa, regardless of what you are. So I'm sure you've got a little bit of African in you. No, today I'm going to prove that I'm African and not, what do you call me? Dominican. No, I'm not Dominican. We'll see. We're going to prove that today. You was on the Puerto Rico Day Parade float yesterday.

I did not go to the Puerto Rico Day Parade. I did not go. I was not there. When we come back, we got front page news. We'll tell you about Trump. Is he considering partnering all NFL players? Request. We'll tell you all about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ

N.V. Angelou. Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. And over the weekend, Friday night, yes, the Warriors swept the Cavs, beating them 108-85. Was anybody surprised? No. I didn't think it was going to... I didn't think they were going to sweep them. I think it was going to take five games.

I thought they'd probably win one, but they didn't. Kevin Durant was named finals MVP, so congratulations to the Warriors. Could have given that to him or Steph. Doesn't even matter, though. All they want is the rings at the end of the day. Yeah, I think Steph should have got that one. Drop on the clues bombs for that Golden State Warriors dynasty, man. Three out of the last four championships have gone to the Golden State Warriors.

Right. Okay. All right, now let's talk about Donald Trump now. He's telling athletes, if you guys kneel, I'll take your recommendations on who should be pardoned. And we actually have him saying it. They're not proud enough to stand for our national anthem. I don't like that. What I'm going to do is I'm going to say to them,

instead of talk, it's all talk, talk, talk, I am going to ask all of those people to recommend to me, because that's what they're protesting, people that were unfairly treated, friends of theirs or people that they know about, and I'm going to take a look at those applications. And if I find and my committee finds that they're unfairly treated, then we will pardon them or at least let them out.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong. Kaepernick and other players were kneeling because of the injustice that black and brown people have faced at the hands of the police. Oftentimes that injustice is death. Correct. So is Trump going to resurrect some of these people? Well, he's true. He's talking about, is he going to resurrect Philando Castile and Alden Sterling and Mike Brown? Is he going to resurrect people?

It's funny that you're saying that because he actually is thinking about pardoning Muhammad Ali. We have audio. I'm thinking about somebody that you all know very well. And he went through a lot. and he wasn't very popular then. Certainly his memory is very popular now. I'm thinking about Muhammad Ali. Correct me if I'm wrong again, because I didn't go to college, but I think that I've read somewhere that the Supreme Court overturned Ali's conviction in 1971. That is true.

So there's nothing to pardon? That is true. So there's nothing to pardon? That is true. And Muhammad Ali's ex-wife actually speaks about the pardon, and she finds it kind of funny. Muhammad Ali was pardoned. He fought for his freedom and his rights to stand up for his belief, and he was successful. So there's no necessary need for a pardon.

Plus, he's gone. It's a little too late. You know what? I think the pardon should go to those who kneel. That would be putting it in the right perspective in the right place because if he accepts Muhammad Ali being right for what he did and

going to give him a pardon, then that pardon should be going out to all those people who kneel. Kneeling is a crime? No. So I don't understand what she means when she says the pardon should go to those who kneel. She meant, I guess, to saying that for the athletes who don't kneel, or the athletes who kneel that get the recommendation from Trump, pardon those people.

Don't worry about pardoning Muhammad Ali. That's what she was trying to say. I don't know what you just said either. Okay. I want to know, and somebody can correct me if I'm wrong again. I don't see the point of pardoning all these dead people. Okay? Unless your criminal record on earth needs to be cleared for you to get into heaven.

I don't see the point. Yeah, I don't either. I don't either. Well, Robert De Niro had some choice words for Donald Trump over the weekend. I'm going to say one thing. F*** Trump. It's no longer down with Trump. It's f*** Trump.

Now, this was at the Tony Awards. Now, of course, the American version didn't play that. They actually cut that out. But I guess it was aired in Australia as well. And that's the full version that Australia aired. Has Trump tweeted about that yet? I don't think so, but I'm sure he'll do it this morning. He's busy.

He's meeting with Kim Kardashian in North Korea. Not Kim Kardashian. What's the Kim name over there? Kim Kardashian. Kim Jong-un. I'm sure that's not his name. That is something like that. Right.

But he's meeting with him, right? Is that today? Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Okay. All right. Well, that is your front page news. All right.

The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? What's going on? It's Andrew.

What's up, Andrew? Get it off your chest, bro. I just wanted to spread some positivity, man. We start another week. We're here, so we might as well enjoy it. Okay, absolutely, brother. No doubt. Hey, Charlamagne. Yes, sir. I've been hearing you plugging that for him stuff. Does that really work? What, the hair stuff?

Yeah, because I'm on my last lap, so I need something before it's all over. Hey, man, it don't hurt to try. You know what I'm saying? Me, personally, I got a bald head, you know what I mean, on purpose. You don't have to have one. It don't hurt to try, though, if you're still holding on to that last little bit of hairline you got left.

If you're out here LeBron-ing it. Nah, I ain't that bad, but I feel you. I'm going to see what's up. All right, brother. I think LeBron's hairline is due to stress, bad, but I feel you. I'm going to see what's up. All right, brother. I think LeBron's hairline is due to stress, though. I'm not going to lie to you. When you lose six NBA finals, man, that's a little bit stressful. I didn't know you was trying to get your hair back, man, trying that little stuff.

I'm not. I'm just giving people an alternative if they want to keep that. Hello, who's this? Toya. Hey, Toya, get it off your chest. I want to talk about spoiling kids. Like, parents really need to stop spoiling these kids out here and making them rotten. They need to know that they need to earn things.

And too often you hear people are older and they're saying, I don't have nobody around me. My kids don't check for me. And all their life, they were there for them, spoiling them. And so they need to turn around and be so ungrateful. Spoil yourself. Give them what they need. Them grow older and spoil their self, and you spoil yourself as an adult. What's making you so mad?

You spoiled your kids or something? Something happened wrong? What's making you so mad, Mama? No, I did not spoil my kids, but my child is pretty fortunate, and our attitude is so sweet. I like the word you used. You said fortunate. My children are fortunate. Yeah, now, my kids are spoiled. I spoil a hell lot of my kids. We do things that I couldn't do as a child,

but my kids know the value of money, and they respect everything, and they make sure they work hard, their grades are good, and they help around the house. Yeah, that's why I wouldn't say they're spoiled. They're fortunate. My kids are fortunate. You know what I mean? Because they do what my daughter does what she's supposed to do.

Now, my two-year-old is spoiled, but that's because she's spoiling herself right now. She don't take no for an answer. Oh, my goodness. Hello, who's this? Yeah, this is Armand. Good morning. Armand, get it off your chest, bro.

Yeah, I just want to give a shout-out to, you know, just I had a son born 11 days ago, and it's been busy these past two weeks, but me and my wife are doing well. What was the date, June 1st? I'm sorry? What was the date, June 1st? May 29th. Oh, May 29th, okay. Yeah, but he's been doing well, thank you.

And Charlemagne, I've been reading the book. Thank you, sir. I'm on Put the Weed in a Bag. I haven't started that chapter yet, but so far everything has been good. And just, you know, thank you for your words. I'm excited for the next book to come out when it comes out. It'll be out October 23rd. You can preorder it right now.

It's called Shook One, Anxiety's Playing Tricks on Me. It's about anxiety and therapy and PTSD and trauma and all of that type of stuff we don't talk about. Absolutely. I appreciate that. And, you know, I think that's definitely something that needs to be addressed, not just, you know, what's happened with Kate Spade and Bourdain, unfortunately, but that's been something that's been happening without even being mentioned. Right.

100%. So, yeah, thank you for that. So, yeah, and then just want to shout out my business, Novo Services Group. It's been doing well. It's a professional development and career services-based business, and I've been doing that on the side of the full-time hustle, but it's been fun. So just want to, you know, spread positivity this morning, and thank you for everything. Thank you.

Bye-bye, my brother. Get it off your chest, 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Yo, my name's Brett, man. How's it going this morning? Brett, what's up, man? Get it off your chest. Yo, I first want to congratulate Charlamagne Tha God. I saw him this week on Real Time with Bill Maher, man, and for one,

that was just a great appearance, man. That was you know, I love that show. A lot of enlightening s*** comes from that show. Thank you, sir. And I do want to ask you, man, you know, with, you know, Donald Trump attacking the man, you know, with, you know, Donald Trump attacking the NFL, you know, with, you know, it just got released, what, two weeks ago,

Colin Kaepernick and his other player on the same team, they found, like, proof that, you know, the NFL, the owners colluded against them to make their way to the job. I fully think Colin Kaepernick is going to win that collusion case, disciplining Donald Trump. So, yeah, I think Colin's goingepernick is going to win that collusion case, disciplining Donald Trump. So, yeah, I think Colin's going to come out clean in that situation. Anthony, get it off your chest, bro. Yes, sir.

Good morning. How y'all doing, brother? What's up? Doing pretty good. Bless. What's going on, brother? I have a 90-year-old aunt, and my brother's been deported. And his mom is 90 years old. She's blind.

She can't hear. My wife helps me out to take care of her, and we just do the best we can. And also that my son is back from Hawaii. He's in the Marines, and I'm blessed to have him here.

Now, who got deported now? My brother. My brother got deported. He's in Jamaica, and we take care of my aunt. And, you know, been knowing her since day one, man. She gave me my first beer. Oh, she gave you your first beer? What kind of beer was it? Jamaican Red Scrape? It was a Heineken.

I knew it was a Heineken. I knew it was a Heineken. All right, brother. Getting deported to Jamaica is not really a bad thing, to be honest. It depends what the part of Jamaica. No, no. He's not able to do the things that he was doing when he was here in Miami. And what is that?

Oh, man. He was working hard, man. Very hard. Why did he get deported? He's not able to get into the wrong field. Selling drugs. Okay. Got you.

All right, brother. Hello, who's this? This is Siobhan from the Bronx.. Selling drugs. Okay. Got you. All right, brother. Hello, who's this? This is Siobhan from the Bronx. Siobhan from the Bronx. Get it off your chest, mama. BX, throwing up the X way before citizens of Wakanda work. What's good, Shala Fanny? What's happening?

What's up, mama? How y'all doing this morning? We're great. Blessed, black, highly favored. Why you calling this morning, mama? I'm calling because I just want to spread some positivity. My sister's actually retiring in two more weeks. So we went this weekend to pick out a dress for her.

And I'm really inspired by my siblings because my brother also owns a business. So just coming from, you know, the Bronx, that's like the grit of everything. So I'm really inspired by Boop with them. And yeah, that's how the shit comes out. Word. That's good. You gotta find inspiration from somewhere, baby. Absolutely. Alright, mama. Alright.

Take care, guys. Have a great week. Get it off your chest. 805-85-1051. When we come back, we got some rumors for you. Eminem, he's facing backlash for some realistic gunshot sounds. We'll tell you about it when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. All right. Pusha T took that record to heart. Nice for what to these Negroes this summer. Okay, starting with you, Aubrey. The beef is over, all right? It is. All right.

Still was fun while it lasted. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Beyonce and Jay-Z. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. The rumor has it.

On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Please let the people know Angela Yee's not here today. Yeah, Angela Yee is out today. Now, Beyonce and Jay-Z are on tour. They're overseas. And fans who go to the show, when they get their tour book, they opened it up and got a special surprise.

Now, two of these photos in the collection was Jay-Z and Beyonce in bed. And Beyonce was... She had the cheeks out. Her ass was out. She had like a had the cheeks out. Her ass was out. She had like a little thong on, and her ass was out. I don't understand why everybody was so up in arms over that picture. Like, they was going crazy. Like, we've never seen Beyonce's cheeks before.

All right, and also there's another picture of Jay-Z and Beyonce in bed, and they're cuddling. And they just, both are naked, and they're just cuddling. I saw people slandering that picture, too. Why is it weird for a man to be in the bed cuddling with his wife? It's not weird at all. You just said it was kind of weird. It's weird seeing that because you don't usually see Jay-Z, especially Jay-Z like that. You don't see them that vulnerable.

Not at all. That's what I think had everybody so shook was the fact that they were that vulnerable. Right. Yeah. I don't have no problem with it. I mean, I cuddle with my wife. You just don't see them like that, so. Yeah. I don't have no problem with it. I mean, I cuddle with my wife. I just, you know, you just don't see them like that, so it's surprising,

but I have no problem with it. It's black love. I love to see that. Alright, now Eminem, he faces a little backlash. Now, he was using realistic gunshots as he was performing. You know when you're performing and sometimes the DJ hits the bong, bong, bong, bong, bong. Well, people actually thought it was somebody actually shooting.

We have actual audio. Who doesn't do that, though? I think. Like, there's no such thing as unrealistic gunshots. I think everybody does that shot. Yeah, when we use gunshots in here, we use gunshots. Like, is there such a thing as fake gunshots? I don't know.

What are fake gunshots? A buffalo backfiring? I have no idea. Firecrackers? People were pretty upset about that and were mad that he did it and said they were younger fans. He shouldn't have used those realistic gunshot sound effects. Let the chopper ring one time, man. That's not a chopper. That wasn't my chopper.

There you go. That's my chopper. Who cares? I don't even understand what that means. What's the logic of unrealistic gunshots? What kind of gunshots was he supposed to use? POW. Oh, okay. I guess. I don't know.

Lastly, Lil' Kim has reportedly filed for Chapter 13. That's bankruptcy. Now, we found out over the weekend that they are trying to take her home. She reportedly owes $2 million on a loan for her home in New Jersey, $186,000 for legal fees, and $1.8 million in back taxes. So she owes a lot of money, so she's filing for bankruptcy. I would think that house would be paid for, though, right?

She's had it a while. I don't know how much she owes on it or what she had to do. Maybe she took out another loan to, you know, do some renovations. Who knows? But, I mean, bankruptcy is not a bad thing. People usually do that to get out

of ways of doing things and restructure some things. A lot of people do it all the times. And Lil' Kim still lives in the house, so I don't think there's a... They've been saying that they've been trying to take this house for a long time. I know Lil' Kim is working on new music and she's going on the road, so I'm sure she'll be able to handle that ASAP. Well, don't put a clothesline for Lil' Kim.

Shout out to Lil' Kim. I don't play when it comes to people filing bankruptcy and having IRS issues. Because don't nobody want that smoke. Nobody want that smoke. That's one smoke you don't want. You don't want that smoke. You don't want that smoke with Urs. No, absolutely not.

That's what I call them, Urs. Shout out to Lil' Kim. If IRS was a word, that would be the word, Urs. Urs, absolutely. I don't want no problems with Urs. I don't want no problems with IRS. So Lil' Kim, I hope you've pulled through. Absolutely.

She'll be all right. I'm rooting for you. Alright, and that is your rumor report. Now, when we come back next hour, Gina Page will be joining us. For the people that don't know who Gina Page is, explain it to them right now. Gina Page is the founder of

something called AfricanAncestry.com. Now, a few months ago, I took a 23andMe.com test and found that I'm 97% West African, so I'm black as hell, okay? You really don't get no blacker than that, all right? But Chadwick Boseman was up here, and he told us that you can dig a little deeper if you go to African Ancestry because they tell you what tribe you're from and what country in

Africa you're from. So we'll be finding our results out this morning. Envy swabbed his little cheeks a few months ago. That's correct, and I will show to you guys that I'm not Dominican. They don't have a Latin American ancestry test that I know of. But everything traces back to Africa anyway. So it'll prove today. I will prove today

that I'm not Dominican and that I'm from African descent. I don't know what tribe. You can still be Dominican and be of African descent though. Duh. Didn't we learn about Afro-Latinos? Have you forgot already? I forgot already. We'll get in trouble next time. Afro-Latino comes up here. Right.

Okay? You right. All right? All right. And when we come back, we'll tell you about your president, Donald Trump, in front page news. So don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Yes, morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Let's talk Donald Trump.

Now, Donald Trump really wants these players To stop kneeling during the National Anthem So he's come up with a solution That he says, if you stop kneeling I'll do something for you Let's hear it They're not proud enough to stand for a National Anthem I don't like that

What I'm going to do is I'm going to say to them Instead of talk, it's all talk, talk, talk I'm going to ask all of those people to recommend to me because that's what they're protesting. People that were unfairly treated, friends of theirs or people that they know about. And I'm gonna take a look at those applications.

And if I find and my committee finds that they're unfairly treated, then we will pardon them or at least let them out. I wonder if Trump knows that majority of people they are kneeling for are dead. The Eric Garners of the world, the Alton Sterlings, the Philando Castiles, the Mike Browns.

Does he have any clue that majority of people they are kneeling for have been killed at the hands of the police? Well, he does want to pardon Muhammad Ali. I'm thinking about somebody that you all know very well and he went through a lot and he wasn't very popular then.

He certainly, his memory is very popular now. I'm thinking about Muhammad Ali. The Supreme Court overturned Ali's conviction in 71. There's nothing to pardon, sir. It's just weird, man. This man makes me feel like I can do anything.

I'm telling you. It's just weird. I mean, I know I'm not white and rich, but Jesus Christ, man. He's the greatest case of optimism America has ever seen. Well, Muhammad Ali's ex-wife said, don't pardon him. Muhammad Ali was pardoned. He fought for his freedom and his rights to stand up for his beliefs, and he was successful.

So there's no necessary need for a pardon and then plus uh he's gone it's a little too late you know what i think the pardonship goes to those who kneel that would be putting it in the right perspective in the right place because if he accept muhammad ali being right for what he did and going to give him a pardon, then that pardon should be going out to all those people who kneel. I don't see the point of pardoning all these

dead people. Okay? Unless you're a criminal wrecking on earth and you need to be cleared to get into heaven, I don't see what pardoning all the dead black people is going to do. You know, to do something for black people that are alive. On another note, Robert De Niro really dislikes Donald Trump. Now, over the weekend,

he was at the Tony Awards. He was introducing Bruce Springsteen and said this. I'm going to say one thing. F*** Trump. It's no longer down with Trump. It's f*** Trump.

Okay, well, CBS... De Niro wants all the smoke. Yeah, he wants all the smoke. Now, CBS actually took that out, so you didn't see that when it broadcasted in America, but, CBS... De Niro wants all the smoke. Yeah, he wants all the smoke. Now, CBS actually took that out, so you didn't see that when it broadcasted in America, but that was, I guess, streamed in Australia, and Australia just left it in. Wasn't it live, though?

It was, I don't know. Well, you know, sometimes on delay. It's on delay sometimes. You know, it was like a 10-second delay or 30-second delay, so they definitely bleeped that out. All right, and that's your front page news. Now, when we come back... Okay, I'm excited about this.

The reason I'm excited about this is because I've been waiting a couple months to get my results back from African Ancestry. Now, I told y'all I took 23andMe a few months ago. Maybe last year I took 23andMe. It was a long time ago. It was a while ago. But I found out I'm 97% West African. But we had Chadwick Boseman up here. And Chadwick Boseman was talking to us about African Ancestry.

And African Ancestry tells you what tribe you're from and what country you're from in Africa. Chadwick Boseman up here and Chadwick Boseman was talking to us about African ancestry and African ancestry tells you what tribe you're from and what country you're from in Africa so the founder of African ancestry Gina Page

reached out to me we need some African music right now man stop it man so we swabbed our cheeks right well not together but I

you swabbed your cheek and I swabbed mine see see you're playing too much go ahead then we sent them off. And this morning,

Gina Page will be here to give us our results and let you know how you can get involved with African Ancestry as well. Okay. I don't want y'all looking for African music.

I just feel like I'm about to be offended. Okay? Don't do it. I don't know. I'm African too. I'm not. You got the Puerto Rican

over there looking for African music. Everybody just relax. All right? Just everybody cool out. Drum, just cool out. All right. Well, we're going to kick it with her when we come back. right? Just everybody cool out. Drum, just cool out. All right. Well, we're going to kick it with her when we come back.

Gina Page, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, we have a young lady in the building, Miss Nina Page. Her name is not Nina Page.

It's Gina Page, you crazy fool. Okay? And Gina Page is the founder of AfricanAncestry.com. You know, a couple months ago, I took a 23andMe.com test, and it said that I was 97% West African, which I love because I'm black as hell. And somebody, Chadwick Boseman, actually put us on the African Ancestry and said that if you get with them, they can tell you your tribe and what country you're from. Right.

As a matter of fact, play the clip. Let's play the clip. Play the clip. What I did is I took a DNA test. Me too. Yeah. So where are you from? I'm 97% East African.

West African. No, see, that's the moral test. Which one you took? You took Ancestry.com. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I took African Ancestry. What's the difference? So African Ancestry could tell you specific um ethnic group that you come from

so you know if you if you just know the country that's still the european borders but if you know that you're yoruba from nigeria then you can now now you can you can pinpoint specific customers and rituals got you that that are part of your past. So our special guest heard that, Ms. Gina Page. And so she sent us African ancestry kits. Well, good morning, Ms. Gina Page. Good morning. How are you? I'm great.

I'm happy to be here. Now, how do you get all these results? We are able to get these results because we have the largest database of African lineages in the world so we're the only DNA company if you will for ancestry that can can specialize in giving black people specific information how long you've been doing this work 15 years wow so we pioneered this technology what made you do it what was the start like why were you you know what made you do it? What was the start? What made you want to do this? You know, so my business partner is a geneticist, Dr. Rick Kittles, who is a fan of your show. Thank you, Dr. Kittles. I appreciate you. A man who distinguishes himself.

He really wanted to know where he was from. That's how it really started. He just wanted to know where he was from. As he moved along in his career, he worked on the New York African Burial Ground Project in the 90s. Here in New York, in lower Manhattan, they were building a federal building and they unearthed a cemetery in the process. And so a team from Howard University was brought in to identify the ancestry of those bones. So then the community said, well, if you can do it for bones, you should be able to do it for me.

I'm still alive. And so it was a classic case of the community saying, I want this information and us forming a company to provide them with the answer. I didn't even know what you were doing before all this. Because either it was boring or it wasn't fulfilling. I had a corporate background. So I marketed Colgate Palmolive products, Sarah Lee Bakery products, stuff like that. Wasn't fulfilling, is this?

No, because you know what? It doesn't really matter if you use dish liquid that has scrubbing bubbles in it or if it smells like lavender. That doesn't matter. You know, we shouldn't really be eating a whole bunch of cheesecakes and frozen pies and all of that. This technology did not exist.

Before AfricanAncestry.com, if you wanted to know where in Africa you came from, you were short. That's real. And so this isn't like anything else that has ever existed. So, yeah, it's very different and much more fulfilling. Now, you've tested a lot of celebrities. You've tested Oprah Winfrey, John Legend, Spike Lee.

Yes. And now we're excited. Lisa Rice. Yes. I'm excited to get out. I want to see if I'm really black or I'm Dominican. We'll get to that. Not yet.

Or if I'm European from somewhere. I think you're Dominican. I'm going to be honest with you. Have you ever had that happen? Somebody can't wait to see where they're from Africa, but they're from somewhere totally? I think you're Dominican. I'm going to be honest with you. Have you ever had that happen? Somebody can't wait to see where they're from Africa, but they're from somewhere totally different? Yeah, it wouldn't be the Caribbean, though, because we were taken, we were brought from Africa to the Caribbean.

So it wouldn't say Dominican. It would go beyond to Africa. Gotcha. But, yeah, so we don't know what we're going to find. We're called African ancestry, but none of us is 100% anything, right? I was 97 when I did that other test. See, and that's not 100%. So you were 3% something else. So we

might find part of your 97% or we might find part of your 3%. We don't know. I think I'm Indian. I think I got a little Indian in me. You might. You might. I think my mama told me one time my great-grandfather was Indian. Your mama did what with an Indian? You know, shut up. What you think my mama told me one time my great-grandfather was Indian. Your mama did what with an Indian? I don't know. Shut up.

What you say? She told me that her grandfather was an Indian or something. I don't know. Why is it important for people to know their ancestry? That's your foundation. You can't know who you are if you don't know where you come from. Right. And we're, as black Americans, we're the only group in this country that doesn't know. We know we're from Africa at some point.

We know it's West Africa because we know history. But there are thousands of cultures and traditions and practices. So it's a real difference when you know that your ancestry is African versus knowing that your people were warriors or your people were artisans or your people were business people like mine. So it puts my entrepreneurship into perspective in a new way. And that was your tribe. So on my father's father's father's line, I trace back to the house of people living in Nigeria today.

And then on my mother's mother's mother's line, like you all did, I trace back to the Fulani people living in Nigeria. Did you see a spike in people wanting to know where they're from after Black Panther? Absolutely. Yeah, I mean, it was amazing how the consciousness just shifted

almost on a dime. And so now people want to find their own Wakanda. You know, they already know they're African. That's not what they want to find their own Wakanda. They already know they're African. That's not what they want to know. They want to know where in Africa. So that movie was definitely instrumental and pivotal in shifting the collective consciousness.

Because, you know, before February, when we would tell people what we would do, they would say, I'm from Zamunda. Yes. Right? Zamunda was our cultural reference. Right, right, right. And then the day Black Panther launched, now we're all from Wakanda.

That's still a debate, though. All jokes aside, Wakanda, Zamunda. Where would you rather be? See, I feel like Zamunda is more like Jersey. Wakanda is more like New York. Like, I would live in Zamunda and work in Wakanda. You know what I'm saying? I just feel like Zamunda's probably a little bit more country, a little more

rural, you know? Wakanda's more city-like. So I would live in Zamunda and work in Wakanda. You know, they didn't show us Zamunda though. Just a little bit. Just when they were going through the... We saw a lot more Wakanda. Alright, we have more with Gina Page when we

come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Gina Page here from African Ancestry. Charlamagne? You ready? I'm ready. You ready to find out you're from Dominican and go have some questions for your parents? Huh? Are you ready?? You ready? I'm ready. You ready to find out you're from Dominican and go have some questions for your parents?

Are you ready? I'm ready. I'm ready. I better not be. My wife already got hers back. My wife got hers back this week, I believe. Okay.

Yeah, she's from Sierra Leone. Okay. So that's why I call her my diamond from Sierra Leone. All right. Yes. So who should I do first? Do the Dominican first.

Okay. So the test that we did for you traces your mother's, mother's, mother's, mother's first. Okay. So the test that we did for you, Trace, is your mother's, mother's, mother's, mother's line. Yeah, I will. And it only looks at that branch of your tree. So it doesn't look at anybody else. Nobody on your father's side. Nobody on your mother's father's side. It's just mother to mother to mother.

Gotcha. And these results are going to be the same for you, your children, your siblings, your mother, her brothers and sisters, their kids. Everybody in the family is now going to share these results. So the mother is the most important one to get because that's the most comprehensive? No, the mother is important to get because there's a 92% chance that's going to be African. Gotcha. important to get because there's a 92% chance that's going to be African. Got you. When we do the paternal line, it only comes back African 65%

of the time. Really? I wonder why. Because white men were having brown babies. They were raping our ancestors. You said that. So when we look at the Y chromosome that you all as men get from white men,

I mean, get from your fathers, get from your fathers, if a British slave trader had a son with an enslaved African woman, then that son's going to be black. And over generations, he can look like you and me or look like you. But the Y chromosome is still going to go back to Britain. So I didn't want to come here and have the chance of giving you European results. Please don't. So that's why I sent you this.

The last thing I want in my life right now. The maternal test. So actually, I'm going to do you both at the same time. Is that cool? Because your results are extremely similar. No, man. I don't want to be in the tribe with that man. They're extremely similar. So

we found both of your ancestries. I got anxiety now. Me too. In three countries. Oh boy. And these three countries are very closely related. They're close in proximity and the groups are related.

So the first country we found your ancestry in is Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone. And you're both Mende. Mende people in Sierra Leone. So that's the same as your wife, Charlemagne. People like Isaiah Washington, Coretta Scott King. Okay. People like that are Mende.

Okay. Now the Mende were on the Amistad. If you remember, they're the ones who turned the Amistad around. Yes. Okay. The other important thing about the Mende, I know that you come from South Carolina, right? Yep, Charleston. So the Mende were rice farmers. And slavery was a business, right?

This wasn't just some haphazard thing that happened. So the planters in South Carolina, the rice planters, needed skilled labor in rice. And so they took the Mende and brought them to South Carolina. I prefer Stowell. And Georgia. Kidnapped. Yes. You know, my mother's grandmother is from South Carolina. Well, there you go. Therenapped. Yes. My mother's grandmother is from South Carolina.

Well, there you go. And so that's one group. Then right next to Sierra Leone is a country called Guinea-Bissau. Guinea-Bissau is a very small, tiny country on the continent. And unfortunately, a very poor country. In fact, they don't even have any representation here in the United States. There's no embassy I could send you to or anything like that, no diplomatic presence. You both share ancestry with people from Guinea-Bissau.

Your people are the Fulani, and the Fulani were nomads. So you'll find Fulani all across Africa. You'll find them in Senegal. You'll find them all across Africa. You'll find them in Senegal. You'll find them in Mali. You'll find them in Nigeria, where my people are. Charlemagne, your people are the Balanta in Guinea-Bissau. And Balanta means those who resist. I'm starting to see a theme here, right?

We've got the Mende who resisted enslavement. We've got the Balanta who were resistant. And then you're a wanderer. Alright. And then the last country we found is just one country away from Guinea-Bissau. So there's not even 800 miles between Sierra Leone and

Senegal. You know these are artificial borders. You share ancestry with the Mandinka. Mandingo! Mandingo! I always knew I was a Mandingo. My wife told me I was a Mandingo. That's the same thing, right? Yeah, it's the same thing.

What's the Mandingo Warriors? The Mandinka are the griots. They're the keepers of the history and the culture through oral traditions and musical traditions. So I thought it was consistent that... We're resistors and we're into music.

Well, I'm a resistant into music. Yep. And into communication, which is why we're here now. So congratulations. Welcome to the African Ancestry family. Got you. There are a lot of places. I don't know if you've traveled to any of these countries.

I haven't, but i will these results you get to share with everybody in your family so you have a family reunion on your mother's side these are results are going to apply to all of so i'm from three different tribes okay and if you think about it so remember i told you they're not even 800 miles between sierra leone and Senegal. So it's like you could be living in D.C. and have people in Atlanta. You're in different places

but you share the same genetics. And then ethnic groups aren't genetic. The Mende, the Mandinka, the Belanta, the Fulani, those are social and cultural groups. Okay. So you could be in D.C. and be a Baptist, and your mother could be in Atlanta and be AME.

Got you. You belong to different groups that share different traditions, may have different values, but you have the same genetics. I didn't know it could be more than one. Yeah. Okay. And they're so closely related that we just gave you everything. Now, in your letter, you'll see something called a sequence similarity score. Right.

Mine's 100%. Yours is 100. Is yours 100? 99.7. Okay. So, in your case, Charlemagne, we found identical matches. Wow. So, we found people in each of those groups

in our database. Remember I told you it's the largest in the world, over 33,000, that have your exact same mitochondrial DNA signature here. Wow. Envy, we found people whose signatures are 99.7% the same as yours.

So they're not identical, but we feel damn sure. You know, we are highly confident that you share ancestry with those groups. Gotcha. So you can pick and choose. You can, you know, identity is fluid. You get to form your identity however you see fit. Me and my wife are not related, are we? No.

Okay. When you get home, you can compare your letters, and wife are not related, are we? No. Your markers, when you get home, you can compare your letters and these are going to be different than hers. So me and Shalma are brothers. Yep.

But you didn't need me to tell you that, right? I see that. We're related. Man, shut up. See, every time you talk light-skinned, you just as light-skinned

as me. No, I'm not. Yes, you are. No way. We brothers. I am excited. So where can they get these African Ancestry tests,

Gina? At AfricanAncestry.com At AfricanAncestry.com AfricanAncestry.com Alright. Gina, thank you for coming. Thank you for coming. Thank you for having me. We really appreciate you. So Charlemagne, I brought you something else too. What's this? I brought you a gift. Thank you very much.

Oh, this is beautiful. That's a new pendant. It has Senegal, Sierra Leone, and Guinea Bissau on it. Your name is engraved on the back with your countries. And so now that we've revealed George's envy, I'll make sure that you get a pendant as well. Thank you very much. You want to get him a Latin America pendant?

No. Now you can never say I'm on my mama's side. I say I'm African. I'm your brother. Shut up. I'm your brother. Jesus Christ, man. How's mom doing?

Jesus. Well, we appreciate you for joining us. I've had a good time. Thank you for having me. All right. Thank you, Gina. It's The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club.

Hey. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee Yee, Shalameen the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Hey, salute to Gina Page from African Ancestry, man, for coming through this morning. Tell them, brother. And giving us our maternal genetic ancestry results. I am from three different tribes.

Me too. Balante, Mandinka, and Mende. Salute to Guinea-Bissau, Senegal, and Sierra Leone. We are brothers. Shut up. We are brothers. No. Yes, we are.

We are brothers. All right. Admit it. We are brothers. We're not brothers. We are brothers. All right. So if I show up to the house and I be like, hey, auntie.

All right. Okay. Don't be surprised. All right. My goodness. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kanye West. It's about time.

What's going on? Rumor report. Rumor report. Let's talk Kanye West. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to him. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Congratulations to Kanye. He got his eighth number one album.

It's not a surprise. And now he ties Eminem for the second most number one albums. Of course, Jay-Z has that record with 14 number one albums. Now, he moved 208,000 units in his first week, 85,000 of them were traditional album sales. The rest, of course, were streams. Solid numbers. I wonder if Cudi and Kanye album goes number one this week. Would that count as another number one for Kanye?

I think so. I will say that, and I love Push's album. I love Push's album for a whole other reason. But out of the three good music releases that have been dropped so far, that Cudi and Ye album might be my favorite. Kids See Ghosts. Over the Push album? Yeah.

I mean, it's two different sides of the same coin, though. Push is the street adult contemporary trap rap that I love. Two different feelings. Okay, yeah, two different total feelings. All right. But Teyana Taylor's project is going to be the best project out of all of them, though. You think so? I know.

You didn't hear Nas. That is true. But I don't count Nas as a good music project. Well. Kanye just produced all of it. Yeah. He's not a good music artist. All right.

Well, Kanye, the West family, and Kim Kardashian, well, I could say the West family and the Kim Kardashian family did Family Feud. It aired over the weekend, and this is how it started. You know, Kim. Mm-mm. All right? Nope, not here, Kim. No, not here. Not here.

We ain't doing this. No, not today, Kim. Yes. I see how it is. This is it. Ain't no, ain't no, ain't we ain't shaking hands. It's called Family Feud. Not today.

Okay. Right now. Have you ever had family members play each other like this? Yeah, my family was on the show. You're a big fan. Well, what happened until I was rudely interrupted, thank you, Dramos, Kim and Khloe got to the stand and they wouldn't shake hands. Khloe took it very serious, but the Kardashian family actually lost.

The West family won and they got to fast money. If you know what fast money is, that's where they pick two family members. They go hard. I think it's five questions. They only have, I think, 30 seconds. And this is how it went. On a scale of one to 10, how sexy are you compared to the people you work with? 10.

Try again. Five. Name a part of the body you're always with? Ten. Try again. Five. Name a part of the body you're always banging into things. Your knee. Fill in the blank. Slice of what? Bread. Name something a pet hamster spends a lot of time doing.

Eating. Name something you need to make a milkshake. Milk. Try again. Ice cream. Bam. All right, and then we have, uh, you can find out if they actually won. Here.

We need 53 points for $25,000. Man, why is this news? On a scale of 1 to 10, how sexy are you compared to the people you work with? Your wife said 10. You said 10. Then you said... 5. Survey said...

Oh, God. 5 and 8 was tied for the top answer. We're 32 away. Name a part of the body you're always banging into things. You said... Your knee. Survey said... Oh! All right, he won.

They got $25,000. Bro, bro, bro. Why the hell did you do a Family Feud recap in the middle of a rumor report? They picked these stories. They give you stories. I want to hear some rumors, man. They picked these stories. Oh, you had no Family Feud recap in the middle of a rumor report? They picked these stories. What are the goddamn rumors? I want to hear some rumors, man. They picked these stories.

Oh, you had no Family Feud recap? That was good. It was kind of funny. It was actually a good show. Shout out to the West family. They won that. They won $25,000 for a good cause. Now, Vince Vaughn, you know who Vince Vaughn is, right?

He's white. I don't know. I know. Excuse me. When you said that, I thought Vince Staples, but I know who you're talking about. Vince Vaughn, this guy right here. Look, look. I'm going to show you a picture.

I know the white man you're talking about. All right. Gosh, this guy right here. Look, look, I'm going to show you a picture. I know the white man you're talking about. All right, gosh. He's an actor, and he was arrested for DUI. Congratulations. That's all you wanted to hear about it? That's it? He was arrested for DUI? That's it?

What was DUI? He was driving under the influence. I was testing you, sir. I was just making sure you knew what DUI was. I know what DUI is. I'm not doing these rumors anymore. Please, guys, man, that's all I've been waiting for. Just stop. Just give up. Quit.

Like LeBron in the third quarter of Game 4. Just quit. Just give it up, bro. All right. God damn. I was waiting for you to do that five minutes ago. I don't want to do these rumors. I don't want to do these rumors. That's what they gave me. I don't want to do it.

You think on Monday I want to read rumors about people? I want to hear some good rumors, not no family feud recap recap and Vince Vaughn got arrested for a DUI. So what? I'm glad you quit in the middle of the third quarter like LeBron in Game 4. Drop on the clues bombs for you for knowing your limitations. All right? You got to know what you're good at, sir. Well, who are you giving your donkey to?

Donkey of the days of next. Oh, yes. I need Hot 97 to come to the front of the congregation. We like to have a little war with them. The whole Hot 97? Yes. Very disrespectful to what I saw yesterday. Okay.

Yes. All right. Well, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. And then Neo will be joining us. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day. I'm a Democrat. So being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed up. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed question. So like a donkey, he's Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one.

Donkey of the Day for Monday, June 11th goes to New York City radio station Hot 97. Drop on the clues bomb for Hot 97. Legendary. Okay, I'm not going to front on that brand. You can't front on that brand. Staple in hip-hop culture forever. Well, yesterday, as you probably saw on Tidal, they had their annual concert, Summer Jam.

I didn't watch the show, so I can't comment on it. I saw Meek Mill's intro to his performance on Instagram. That was dope. That was dope. That was very hard, and I know Timberland and Switch Beats had a beat battle, which I haven't watched yet, but I plan to. Other than that, I know nothing about the show, but I woke up this morning to a few people texting

me and tweeting me, and they were downright disgusted about a tweet that was sent out from Hot 97's Twitter account. Now, we live in an era where I keep stressing to y'all that it's just intersectionality like we have never seen before between the young and the seasoned okay the veterans the old heads all right it's never been like this before ever and you need a healthy balance of both why because you need the youngins

to keep us old heads in tune with the little young oozy thugs and the rich homie kids of the world and you need the old heads to prevent mistakes like the one that Hot 97 made last night. Now, whoever was running Hot 97's Twitter account was live-tweeting the performances as they should have been doing their job, and Megan Wright was performing. Now, Megan Wright had a special guest come out during her set, and that special guest was the legendary Bun B of UGK. Drop one of Clues Bomb for UGK. All right?

Legend does not begin to describe that man. Not only is he a dope MC, he's an exceptional human being, okay? UGK as a collective arguably could be considered the first trap rappers. Pocket Full of Stones from the Minister Society, Soundtrack of 93 was one of the first records I can remember where people were talking about slanging dope. But that's a debate for another day. But what can't be debated is the impact UGK has had on the culture of hip-hop.

Okay, well, clearly, Hot 97 had a jitterbug running the Twitter account. If it wasn't a young'un, then it was a culturally clueless, uncoached piece of swine who tweeted out when Bun B hit the stage, underground kings! With an exclamation mark. Then proceeded to tweet, Pimp C just came out with Megan Wright, hashtag summer jam. Now, some of y'all just heard me say that, and it means nothing to you.

Some of y'all heard me say that, and you don't believe what I just said. Yes, Hot 97 tweeted out, Underground Kings, Pimp C just came out with Megan Wright, hashtag summer jam. Why is this a problem? And why is Hot 97 getting donkier today? Well, it's because Pimp C has been dead since December 4, 2007. Okay, I remember this day so vividly because me being the psychological hypochondriac I am, went to the hospital that night because I thought Pimp C died of a heart attack. And I drank a Red Bull earlier that day and forgot how I drank it.

So late that night between having a panic attack, thinking I was going to be found dead like Pimp C, and that Red Bull, I rushed to the emergency room. That's just the way my brain works, okay? My anxiety-filled brain. That's just the way it works. And that's how much I love Pimp C. It was on my mind that much. Now, High 97 did post an apology.

It said, earlier tonight, an inadvertent tweet was sent out stating that Pimp C was on stage with Megan Wright. We deeply apologize to family and friends of the late Pimp C, as well as Bun B for the terrible error. We hold the legacy of Chad Lamont Butler, a.k.a. Pimp C, and UGK dear to our hearts and will work to keep his rich legacy alive in the future. Now, when I initially saw the tweet, I was like, wow, we really got to step it up for powerhouse this year because they must have a Pimp C hologram.

Oh, boy. At Summer Jam, okay? Didn't know that this was just a mistake they made. Let me tell you something, High 97. Pimp C once said, take that monkey off, you embarrassing us. He stated those eloquent lines on sipping on some Sizzurp. Let's hear that line, please.

Take that monkey and his shit off, you embarrassing us. And the key words in that bar is embarrassing us, okay? And by us, I mean hip-hop and R&B stations all across the country. You can't say you are where hip-hop lives if you don't even know what hip-hop artists are living. Please give Hot 97 the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw! Hee-haw!

Alright, well thank you for that donkey of the day. Now when we come back, Ne-Yo will be here, so we'll kick it with Ne-Yo. So don't move, It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. A proud member of the

faithful male community. Yes, he is. Neo. Yeah, yeah. What's happening, my brother? What's going on with you? Chilling, chilling, chilling. You posted that online, man. I forgot exactly what the post was, but it was just something about being faithful and being with one woman. He's a good man. And everybody gave you flack.

I couldn't understand it. You know what? It just spoke to the world we live in right now. Like, you know what? There's a song on the album called Apology. And I posted a little something about the song. The song is basically me apologizing to every woman that came before my wife. That you did dirty.

Yeah. And it's like, it was one specific lady that was on Twitter. I don't remember her Twitter handle, but she was like, so did you call all these women personally and apologize? I'm like, wait, you want me to call every woman that I've been with since before my wife? Call them all and apologize personally? She was like, that would be a start.

I'm like, you know what, let me just... This is too much. You're doing too much. But that's why you make the song. You cast a wide net. She was like, actions speak louder than words. I'm like, I put a song on an album that the world has a potential to hear. That ain't action. Why would you really just talk into this woman back and forth? Because I do that sometimes. Come on, New York. I go on Twitter every now and then

and just walk amongst the people. I'm a people's champ. I like doing it. And the best action and the best apology is always change behavior. Clearly, you've done that. Thank you. Just not with any of those women. I appreciate it. Appreciate it. Well, of course he'd say that because it's the same thing.

We're men. We go through the same thing. You better stop pointing at me because I'm going to start pointing back at you, okay? I'm the only guy that's changed in this room. No, we all changed. Completely. Completely. I'm off it.

Ain't nothing out there. Now, why was this album needed right now? I mean, we're grateful for it, but why right now? Just the climate that we're in right now, man. Like, we got this sexual harassment case and this rape charge and the Me Too movement and the Time's Up movement and all that. I just feel like it's me trying to lead by example again. You think men didn't realize really all the things that women have to go through 100 on a daily basis like i really feel like men had no idea a lot of times as women too we're just like well you know this

is the business here and so you just gotta have a tough skin yeah yeah but that's that's not how i suppose exactly i didn't i didn't know i mean i had i'm gonna keep it from i had an idea just because of stories that i've heard but i didn't know it was i didn't know it was like for real for real like because there's people that like it was like for real, for real. Because there's people that... That was like the standard. That's just what goes down. Because I'm sure there's people that you know personally,

men who are being accused of things, and you're like, damn, that's... And you know what? On the other side of that, because, okay, so every accusation, we should definitely pay attention to every accusation. But at the same time, it's like, you got to be careful with them accusations.

The accusation is the cruc the same time, it's like, you got to be careful with them accusations. Like, the accusation is the crucifixion straight away. Like, if you're accused of it, whether it's true or not, just the fact that you got accused is like, your whole life could be over behind. You shouldn't be ruined because of an allegation. Yeah. I think I'll pause. You're not ruined.

Let's really, let's investigate for real before I just be like, oh, he did it. Yeah. She said he did it. So he did it. Like, damn. Like, what about, what if he didn't do it? Like, oh, I'm sorry.

Well, now, you know, his company's is done and then dude life is over because somebody was mad and decided to say something. Right. I don't feel like that's right. I feel like we should, we should do a little bit more research and investigation into these accusations and allegations before we just start crucifying cats. I feel like that's wrong. At what point did you have your revelation?

When did you realize, you know what, I really want to be a good man? It was, you know what, it really was my marriage. That really was it. She's really good at calling me on my bull, if I could say that. She's real good at, you know, I get on my knee sometimes. She's real good about calling me on my bull, if I could say that. Like, she's real good at, you know, I get on my Neo sometimes, you know,

and she's real good about being like, yeah. Bring it back to earth. Neo is not your name. You're not Neo, okay? Your mama didn't name you Neo. And just being with somebody that real, like, it really forced me to kind of self-reflect and look back on, you know, relationships that I've been in and realize that a lot of the issues that I came across with those relationships were self-caused.

It's like, you know, we beefing all the time because you always accusing me of something when in actuality I was really doing it. And you caught me and I'm trying to, you know, I'm trying to die with the lie. And that's the reason that we're going through what we're going through. And had I not been doing what I was doing, then we probably would have never even. That's how guys are. They call you crazy. They're like, oh, you so crazy. But you really are doing the things that she, and then you're calling her crazy for calling you out on the things that you're really doing.

And then we start feeling like, damn, am I really crazy? Yeah, yeah. And you know what's wild? Like, we'll sit with the homies and, like, talk about the fact that, man, she just be on my head and always accusing me of this, accusing me of that. So anyway, where the bitch is at? You know, like, you believe in your own lies now.

People who create their own drama deserve their own karma. That's real. And honestly, you feel so much freer when you're not living like that no more. You know what? I'm in a place now where I'll go to the club if, you know, because I've got to promote music and all of that. But I have more fun at the house with the wife and the kids to be completely honest with you then going to the club now like i realized

the club ain't for the club ain't for me no more the club is for the single dude that's chasing because if you ever go to the club and you're not there for women you're either gonna get real drunk or you're just gonna stand around and look at people which is kind of what people do in the club not right now anyway just, bottles over there. Cool. Y'all ready to go? Because it ain't fun. You forget the third thing. You forget the third thing.

What? Feeling old. Oh. Definitely. Who that is? What song that is? You know what I mean? Yeah, a song.

Come on. Everybody go crazy. Like, what's that record? And doing that old school set. Come on. Hey. Dude, dude, dude, dude, dude. When the room is in the system, ain't no time for that. Standing in the old song now, huh?

Yes, it is. It is. Give It To Me is an old school record. All right. All right. It's a throwback. Congratulations. You got a baby on the way.

Yeah, man. We are literally in the Any Day Now stage. Wow. I'm moving around, but the phone is right here. As soon as I We are literally in the Any Day Now stage. Wow. You know, I'm moving around, but, you know, the phone is right here. As soon as I get the call, we headed back to L.A. to go ahead and get it done. And your World of Dance is back on. Yes, yes, yes. Season two, we are officially back on NBC, 10 o'clock, 9 o'clock Central, every Tuesday.

Make sure you tune in. I'm excited, man. I'm excited for people to see this thing. I was worried after the first season because it was so many amazing things that happened in the first season. I was like, okay. How can you tap it? Cats is literally going to have to fly in order to impress us now because we've seen it all. But that's the thing about dancers is that they love what they do, so they're always evolving because they just keep doing it.

So the first day of shooting, I was like, all right, we're going to be fine. The first day of shooting, every day that I all right, we're going to be fine. Like, like the first day of shooting, I was every, every day, every day that I sit in that chair, my mind is blown. They had some of the contestants from last season too.

Yeah. People get to come back, get to come back. If you didn't so much do what it is you wanted to do the first season, you get, you can come back.

And the dope thing about that is, you know, I love to see the cast that come back that actually listen to what we were saying to them. Cause a lot of, a lot of dancers, they're so passionate about what they do,

it's hard to direct them. It's hard to give them corrective criticism. And that's anybody when they're passionate about something. You can't tell me how to write a song. This is what I do. You can't tell me how to dance. I've been doing this my whole life. Where you're on a TV show where I'm supposed to judge you for what you're doing,

and if I'm giving you corrective criticism, it's to help you, not to clown you. But it's hard to tell passionate people. Do they ever try to check you? Because they're like, you know, you're not a dancer. You're not Chris Brown. They haven't yet. I don't doubt that it will come at some point, but they haven't yet. Now, Black Twitter will definitely.

Who the hell is real to think he can judge somebody dancing? They get that. It is what it is. All right, let's get into a Ne-Yo mini mix. Let me know what you want to hear. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Ne-Yo is in the building. Now, do you still love music? I do. I do. I still hate the game, but music I'll always love. What part of the game?

What do you hate about the game? You made a lot of money, Ne-Yo. I did. I did. I made a lot of money. I'm still making a lot of money. You can live off publishing for the rest of your life, I'm sure. I absolutely could. However, I just

don't like the fact... Anything that is artistic and you add commerce to it, it just hollows it out for me personally. You know what I mean? What made you decide after three years, now is the time? Well, you know how the music industry is. Three years is like ten years in the music industry.

Like, it was... Okay, so At the two-year stint, I'm on Twitter and everybody's like, y'all remember Ne-Yo? And I'm like, damn. Wow. Two years. Golly. I couldn't stay going too much longer because then all of a sudden I'm touring with Keep Sweat and somebody else.

Nothing wrong with touring with Keep Sweat. Keep Sweat's still getting about 50 to 70 a show. Oh, damn, I didn't know that. Oh, hell yeah. No disrespect to Keep Sweat. I was just speaking on the fact that he's a lot older than me, and, you know, I don't know if I'm sweating. Just stay on the road.

Yeah, no disrespect to Keep Sweat. Just stay on the road. All right, well, I'll take that back then. That'll be some good beef. Keep Sweat and Neal. Let's see who can make that pop off. Leo always gets in trouble when he's up here. Hey, Doc Winters, let's get this set up.

Let's set this up. Keep sweating, Neal. I want no smoke with keep sweat. Shout out to keep sweat. My mama love you. Shout out to keep sweat. Oh, Neal, another shot. My mama do love keep sweat.

Oh, Neal, you love him, though. Keep sweat don't f*** no ladies his age. Really? Oh, no, no, no. Keep sweat still out here knocking them down. I was not aware. All right, well, more. Keith's sweat gonna f*** no ladies his age. Really? Oh, no, no, no. Keith's sweat still out here knocking them down. I was not aware. All right, well, more power to Keith's sweat. More power to Keith's sweat.

Much love. Keith. Much love. Y'all ain't finna get me in trouble. Keith, I think Neil wants smoke, Keith. I want no smoke, Keith. He gonna diss you on this quiet song show? Do you f*** your own music?

No. No. Because mid-stroke, I'm like, ah, that note was whack. I can't do it. I can't do it. You're overthinking. To this day, every time I hear a song of mine,

I'm constantly critiquing, like, man, that's too much harmony. I should have did something different. Now, when you came in here, you were talking about working on doing movies in the future. So that's the next plan. I'm learning how to properly write a script.

I didn't know that there's like a language to this. It's literally not just have an idea, sit down, and write it out. It's like, nah, if this don't happen by page 11, and if this arc don't happen, then that ain't going to work. I'm literally learning a whole other language. And you got to write songs. And you got to write software and everything. Experience? That ain't going to work. I'm literally learning a whole other language. And you got to write songs. And you got to software and everything. Experience.

That's why I thought writing movies was the same thing. Because, like, all right, you go through something. I mean, you learn the basic song structure, right? This is a verse. This is a hook. This is a bridge. And then from there, you just do what your artistic vibe tell you to do. And I thought that writing films was the same way.

But no. But you can switch it up too because you don't have to have, like, there's people who've done songs with no hooks. True, true, but you gotta learn the rules

before you get to breaking them in business. But these kids don't learn the rules. Like, some of these songs now be a minute and 48 seconds. You be like, damn, that's a so short song.

Yeah, yeah. No hooks. That might be part of why Tension Spans is getting so short. You're right. True. Yeah. I hate it.

I really enjoy it. I really do. You just hate the whole industry as a whole? Not the industry as a whole. I hate that. I hate that it's become so easy. Like, anybody can be an artist now. Anybody can be a DJ now.

Like, you push a button, or you throw a couple picks up on IG, and suddenly you're an artist. Suddenly you're a DJ. Suddenly you're a model. But that doesn't mean you'll have a career. True, true. But at the same time, people are paying more attention to how many followers you got on IG than they are your actual ability and talent.

Which is just not fair. It's cats that work long, blood, sweat, and tears to hone their craft and don't get the same look that the cat who just turned the auto-tune on and just did something in his bathroom and put it out gets. And it's like, you know, I just don't dig that. You got to find a balance, though.

Because technically it's really just a matter of promotion and marketing. Like, they've just found a way to market their product better than the person with talent that's working on it. I guess that's one way to look at it. You know, I come from the era where you was looking up to greatness. Like, Michael Jackson was greatness. Right. better than the person with talent that's working hard. I guess that's one way to look at it. I come from the era where you was looking up to greatness. Michael Jackson was greatness. You were supposed to look up to that dude.

That's not the case right now. Truth be told, though, when you look at the biggest, I'm talking about the biggest that's out there, they truly are great, though. Beyonce's truly great. Even Drake and Kendrick and Cole, when it comes to rap, they're truly great. So it still is a standard. There's a standard.

It's just there's not as many now as there once was. Where do you fall in, you think? I don't know. I genuinely don't know. I'm not sure. Better question for my fans, I guess. No, you have longevity. You have a career. You're an up and tear.

Neil is up and tear. You have a career. You got a catalog. You got a catalog. Ne-Yo is up a tier. I don't know, because there are people out there that don't feel like me and Beyonce could ever sit on the same plane. But you've gone through it for Beyonce. But it's a tier, so you know. You've wrote records for Beyonce.

Yeah. I have. I have. To the left, to the left. That was Ne-Yo. Yeah, one of her biggest, yeah. It sucks that I have to remind people of that. See that grin?

That's weird. One of the biggest. One of the biggest, yeah. But again, gone for three years and all of a sudden it's, do you remember Neo? Damn. That shit is embarrassing. We got a new album out that comes out this week. So a lot of people, it'll start the conversation back up again. Good man.

Yeah, yeah. Anybody that don't remember, we're going to remind. You saw that when Duvall said something about being a good man. Yeah. He was beefing over what he said about being faithful. I don't understand. You got mad about that. I was like, why isn't he a good man?

I wasn't mad. He's a comedian. I knew that he was playing. But at the same time, it's like, don't **** on the message. You know what I mean? Right. That was what I was thinking. But you got to think, Duvall's still a 40-year-old thot, though.

So, I mean, that's the truth. And Duvall is hurt right now. His girl broke up with him. He's been single. He's been hurt. Oh, no, he's living his best life, though. So, I mean, that's the truth. And Duvall is hurt right now. His girl broke up with him. He's been single. He's been hurt. Oh, no, he's living his best life, though. Duvall stay on the island

with something new. He's hurt. I can't wait for that one. He's a comedian. He clowns me about going to therapy. He clowns me about being faithful now.

Because that's just his nature. Yeah, which is why I wasn't tripping. I didn't declare war on Duvall. Now, your wife got a lot of flack for talking about your son's hair.

Yeah, yeah. She said your son's hair wasn't like mommy's silky hair. What did you think about that? Because people take everything literally now. I didn't care. I didn't care. It's true. Little dude's hair is dry.

And she's a new mom, and she didn't know what to do about it. So she got online and was asking people, what should I do with this dry-ass hair? My hair ain't dry, so I don't know what to do about it. And I just feel like people got real sensitive for no reason. Black people, period. We get real sensitive about stuff. And it's like, it's like y'all just want to fight.

I don't get that. I don't understand that. We so quick to just tear something down. Again, it just speaks to the world we live in right now. So you hate black people, is what you're telling us? That's gonna be the end of it. Here telling us? That's what everybody just heard. Everybody just heard Neal say he hates black people. It's all good.

And talking about his son's white hair, Neal says he hates black people. His son doesn't have white hair. I mean, his son's nappy hair. Neal likes his light-skinned kids better than his dark-skinned kids. Here we go. Well, the hour is out this week, so we appreciate you for joining us. Good man. Yes, Friday, make sure you go get that thing.

Do you still go write for people? Not as of late. I've been chilling as of late. I had to make sure that people gave a damn about me. Again, cats ain't remember me. I had to make sure people gave a damn about me first before I write for somebody else. I think people don't recognize you no more because you take the hat off too much nowadays. Is that what it is? That's what it is. I'm telling you. You know what? It's crazy. People

recognize me more with the hat. That's what I'm saying. Trying to be incognito. But if I take the hat off, I'm walking through Target and Cass is walking right by me like, man, it's crazy. He look aggressive. That angry scalp. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk. The beef is over. She's sp to the rumors. Let's talk. The beef is over. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Now, you know, for the last two weeks,

we've been seeing Drake and Pusha T going neck to neck, head to head, going at each other. Now it looks like the beef is officially over. It's done. It's dead. Pusha T says it's over. J Prince says it's over. Kanye says it's over. So I

guess it's over. And Pusha T has a win in the record books. You know what I'm saying? He does. I know y'all love Drake and Dopey Freestyle was dope, but no. Pusha T, he got that. And it's not even close, by the way. Pusha T washed him with that son of Adidon or whatever it's called.

Yeah, Adidon, I believe. I believe. I think Drake's album was scheduled to come out June 22nd. I don't think that's going to be the date again. They're going to push it back? I think they're going to push it back. And the whole Adidas rollout was ruined. Yeah, well.

Because that was going to be the name of his whole Adidas line. And allegedly they had a song. He had a song on his new album that was about his son. And Pusha T just stepped all over that. So everybody got to go back to the drawing board right now. I mean, I would still do it. I would still release it the way I want to release it. I mean, he didn't ruin the song.

We still haven't heard the song. We haven't seen the clothes. We haven't seen the sneakers. You can't do that. Not now. Hey. Not now. You can't pull Pusha T right.

All right. But also, over the weekend, Jay-Z and Beyonce, I guess when you go, they're performing overseas on the On the Run 2 tour, and you get a special tour book. And some of the pictures on the tour book shows Beyonce's cakes, and it also shows Jay-Z and Beyonce cuddled up in bed. Listen, man, I'm going to tell you all something. I know that all of y'all are saying that Jay-Z looks crazy.

I'm going to tell you what looks crazy to me. What looks crazy to me is a bunch of grown men tweeting, like, Jay-Z not sexy. Yo, Charlotte, on front, you know Jay-Z not crazy. I'm going to tell you what looks crazy to me. What looks crazy to me is a bunch of grown men tweeting, they're like, Jay-Z not sexy. Yo, Charlotte, on front, you know Jay-Z not sexy in this pic. Somebody said that. Yeah, somebody tweeted me that this morning. Jay-Z don't look sexy. Yo, on front, Charlotte, you know Jay-Z don't look sexy in that pic.

I never looked at Jay-Z as sexy. That's not even on my mind. That's not even on my mind, bro. It does seem odd, though, because you just never see them like this. You don't see them vulnerable like that. Not at all. That's what that is. Now, you know, me and you are brothers now.

You know that. Shut up. If you haven't heard earlier, you know, what's her name? Gina Page. Gina Page from African Ancestry came up here and said that Charlemagne and I are from the same tribe and that we're brothers. I'm from a few tribes. We're brothers. We're from almost the same tribes.

We're brothers. Salute to African ancestry. You can go to African ancestry and they can tell you what tribe you're from and what country in Africa. I'm 97% West African. It really don't get no blacker than me. And I'm from the Balente tribe, the Mandika tribe, and the Mende tribe. Salute to Senegal,

Sierra Leone, and Guinea Bisou. I think I pronounced that right. Probably not, but I'm from all those places. So Charlemagne and I are going to go on a brother's trip. We're going to fly to Africa. We're going to meet the rest of our family. We're going to do this together, you know, with brothers. We're going to act like brothers.

We're going to do it like the original day. We're going to borrow each other's clothes. Nah, son. What else do brothers do? We're going to sleep in the same bed. Nah, son. And we're going to share food. I'm going to be honest with you, man.

Brother. When we finally do build this Wakanda, I'm doing brown paper bag tests. You know what I'm saying? Light-skinned people have been letting us down for a long time. All right? You got to really, really have like an amazing IQ. But more importantly, a high emotional IQ. Because light-skinned people are too goddamn emotional and too sensitive.

So if you don't have a high emotional IQ as a light-skinned person, you can't come into Wakanda. You got to go to the neighboring city, Wakanda. Wakanda? No, brother. Brother, we're going together, brother. Why do you keep talking like that? That's brother. That's African. Man, shut up, man.

See, that's why I don't want to be your brother. Right there, because you're just making a mockery of African people. I'm not. Stop it. That's what they say, brother. Man, shut up, man. You know what? Forget you.

And also, today is Angie Martinez Day. Hey! Drop one of Kilo's bombs for African Latin Ancestry.com. What? All right. Angie Ma, today is National Angie Martinez Day. It is. There's no Coquito left in the city to celebrate

because yesterday was the Puerto Rican Day Parade here in New York, but I'm sure Angie got a stash. Yeah, Coquito's low, white jeans are low in the city, and right now Puerto Rican flags are low in the city. White jeans are done. All right. I wish you, Puerto Rican flags are low in the city. White jeans are done. All right. I wish you would tell a Latino person, a Dominican in New York, they can't wear white after Labor Day. Okay.

All right. All right. All right. All you got to do is text 300 to 96000. Again, text 300 to 96000. And let's get Angie Martinez in the Radio Hall of Fame. Yes, man. And she'll be the first Latino ever in the Radio Hall of Fame.

I can't believe Angie's not already in the Radio Hall of Fame. That's right. I'm going to be honest with you. I just can't. She's a legend. You're a liar if you do radio right now and you say you haven't been influenced or inspired by Angie Martinez. Absolutely.

I'm going to tell you something. What? You know Angie hates this. What? But you have to you something. What? You know Angie hates this. What? But you have to do it. What's that? You got to get some Angie Martinez music on in the mix, man. Oh, that's done.

I'm definitely doing it. You got to show these kids. I'm definitely going to do that. One of Angie's many talents. All right. Definitely going to do that. She's going to be mad. What records you going to play?

I'm going all of them. I'm going, it's ladies night. Hey! It must be Angie on the mic. I'm doing that one. I'm doing... You going to do the joint with Jay-Z, me or more? Yeah, how'd I go?

Revolt will see you tomorrow. Okay! Everybody else of People's Choice mixes here at the Breakfast Club. Good morning. 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
