Couldn't get back Sunday. Then yesterday I was traveling for 12 hours trying to get home. My flight got diverted to D.C. Then there was a long, long wait there. I didn't think we were going to make it. What do you mean make it? I didn't think we were going to make it back. I thought we were going to be stuck in D.C. over there. I didn't think we were going to make it. What do you mean make it? I didn't think we were going to make it back. I thought we were going to be stuck in D.C. overnight.

Oh, you made it sound like you were about to die. I was like, what? I didn't think we were going to make it. You know how people get, too, when you're on a flight. And when you're laying, everybody claps. I think there was like a light clapping. People were exhausted because it was like 12 hours. A flight that should have took three hours. Well, welcome back.

Yeah, welcome back. You made it. You're still here. Thanos didn't snap you. Not at all. Well, he did, but the Avengers went back and saved you. But shout out to New Orleans. I had a great time in New Orleans celebrating my fresh juices.

Shout out to New Orleans. And I also drank fresh juice. Well, this morning, Ghetto Boys will be joining us. Well, two-thirds of the Ghetto Boys because you'll never have the whole Ghetto Boys again, because rest in peace Bushwick Bill. But the legendary Brad Jordan, Scarface, and Willie D will be joining us. They have a new podcast that I hope you all are listening to. It launched last week called The Ghetto Boys Reloaded on the Black Effect iHeartRadio Podcast Network.

That's right. So we'll be talking to them this morning about that. And I mean, come on, it's the Ghetto Boys. They celebrated 30 years of We Can't Be Stopped this past weekend. I think July 9th. When was the 9th? Whenever the 9th was. 9th or 11th?

Today's the 13th. 9th? Was it the 9th? It was the 9th. July 9th. We Can't Be Stopped came out 30 years ago. Okay. Yeah.

All right. So we'll kick it with them in a little bit. All right. Let's get the show cracking. Front page news. She's doing it. Yeah, I got a lot of tweets about you guys. Yes, and we are going to talk about a rapper from Chicago,

and he was walking out of jail and ended up getting killed. I would call that an assassination. Lord have mercy. Sheesh. All right, well, we'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. What's happening? We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get in some front page news. All right. Game four. That's tomorrow night, right?

Suns, Bucks, 9 o'clock. It's tomorrow? I thought it was tonight. It's tomorrow? Is it tonight or tomorrow? I think it's tomorrow. I don't know. I don't know either.

Okay. Did the NBA play? Did they play in the Olympics? Did they play yet or no? They lost last night to Australia. They lost again? They sure did. You don't know. I don't know either. Now also, did the NBA play the Olympics? Did they play yet or no? They lost last night to Australia. They lost again? They sure did. You're goddamn right. They lost again. Listen, man, it's just a reflection of what's happening in America. America doesn't lead in anything anymore, okay? I mean, it never

really has. All we really make is noise, but you know. Was that a real game or was that an exhibition game? No, it was an exhibition game. But it doesn't matter. They didn't smack. What the hell is going on? What else you got, Yee? So a Chicago rapper, he was gunned down after he walked out of jail and he was just had been fitted for an ankle

bracelet. 31-year-old Landre Sylvester, he left Cook County Jail about 9 p.m. and this was on Saturday night. That's when gunmen got out of two parked cars. They shot him 64 times at least. Goodness gracious. According to a police report, two women were also injured. One was a 60-year-old woman who had just posted his bond,

and another was a 35-year-old woman who worked at the jail. So he had been jailed for violating the conditions of his release on a 2020 gun charge. He posted $5,000 bail on Friday. They were walking to a car that was waiting on Saturday when they were ambushed. He was hit in the face and chest, and the woman was struck in her knee. The other woman was grazed by a bullet. They said the shooters did flee in their vehicles in different directions. Police are now looking at surveillance footage.

Let me tell you something. I pray nobody hates me that much. For someone to take a penitentiary chance to shoot you 60-plus times as you are coming out of jail, they wanted you gone for a reason. That means some people were sitting around plotting, let's take him out. That's scary. And where was this again? This was in Chicago outside of Cook County Jail.

His rapper name was KTS Dre. And 64 times. They didn't care. Outside of jail with all the police? As you're walking to your car. I want to know how many guns was that? How many guns was that? Was that two guns? And the fact that they haven't found them is right outside the...

Outside the jail. That is wild. There's got to be surveillance footage, right? Has to be. Yeah, they're looking at surveillance footage right now. They said the cars fled in different directions. All right. Now, Illinois has become the first state, since we're talking about Chicago, to require

teaching Asian American history in schools. So that's the first state that has mandated that that be part of their public school curriculum they said a lot of the legislation around these kinds of curricular decisions are often symbolic they are signals by legislators or priorities and where they stand and what's important to the state what really happens on the ground is going to vary tremendously so they have to teach the contributions of Asian American communities to the economic, cultural, social, and political development of the U.S. in addition to Asian American civil rights advancements

among other aspects of history. And Tyson Foods chicken is being recalled for possible listeria contamination. It's a massive recall. It first was announced on Saturday and it now has grown by nearly 500,000 pounds. So they're saying almost 9 million pounds of frozen and cooked chicken products are part of that recall. That's in Walmart, Kroger, Target, Publix,

ATB, and Wegmans. Those are among the retailers that sell Tyson branded fully cooked and frozen products. And there's also private label products that are part of that recall that were made for restaurants like Jet's Pizza, Casey's General Store, Marco's Pizza, and Little Caesars. Man, we at the point, we just need to grow our own chicken, don't we? Yeah, when you hear these recalls, will you throw your chicken out? Grow your chicken? No. No.

I don't mean to. But I'm just saying. I hear all these recalls. I've never been like, you know what? I got to throw the chicken out, baby. We've reached the point where we got to grow our own chicken. Get you some chicken seeds, plant the chicken seeds, water them every day. Okay?

And grow your own chicken. Well, each package of the recall product has the establishment code P7089. And they have a full list of those products that are recalled on the USDA website and tysonfoods.com. Damn. All right. That is your front page news. Wasn't there something going on with the chicken before, though? Wasn't there a chicken shortage?

Yeah. Actually, chicken's been a lot more expensive is what people were complaining about. Damn. Them cows, man. Them cows on them Chick-fil-A commercials are going to have to stop telling people to eat more chicken. Yeah, and you can get food poisoning from that. So if you have diarrhea, if you have a fever, those are... I don't think I ever threw chicken out when I heard a real call.

I'm just thinking about it now. But if you have Tyson in particular, Tyson chicken, if you have a fever, those are... I don't think I ever threw chicken out when I heard a recall. I'm just thinking about it now. But if you have Tyson, in particular, Tyson chicken, maybe you should. Well, that's the frying kills all the germs. Some of it is fully cooked. That's what I was always talking about. That's what they said. Frying kills the germs. I don't know where I was talking about that.

I never thought no damn chicken. But the frying kills all the germs. You fry the chicken, the germs die. Even when I was a kid, I never seen my mama throw out no chicken. By the way, don't listen to anything that anybody on the Breakfast Club is saying right now. Nothing at all. This is just all, you know, the way we've lived our lives.

Well, they're saying do not eat these products, okay? You can return them or you can throw them away. I'm just being honest. Y'all ever throw out chicken? If there's a recall, like, you know,

remember there's always been like a recall and stuff like spinach or things like that. I will not eat it Oh, please, take the spinach. You can't buy the spinach. Recall it. Recall it.

Recoli. I'm just trying to help y'all, okay? It can be serious. You can have the spinach and take the spinach. Recall it. Recall it. Recoli. I'm just trying to help y'all, okay? It can be serious. You can get some real serious illnesses if you're pregnant, if you have a weakened immune system. I'm just giving you the warning. I'm with you. I can't force you to throw it out. Mama and Grandma's grease kills whatever's in that damn chicken.

That I know. I've never seen Grandma or Mama throw out no chicken. All right, but that's front page news. You seen them throw out grease? Nope. That's why. That's exactly why. That grease protects you from everything. Okay. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

Alright I'm with you Rick I'm kinda with him I told I'm kind of with him. I told y'all. Hello, who's this? This is Rich from Florida. Rich, what up? Yo, Charlamagne is stupid, yo.

My son, I just dropped my son off at school, and he asked me, what is Charlamagne talking about planting chickens? Planting seeds. When I heard that, I ain't go front. I was like, you know, Charlamagne from South Carolina, so I said it might be something different. I said growing chicken. He said grow chicken.

You can grow it. You can put seeds down. Chicken grows. He was just back here talking about we can plant chickens. Now he's in school telling people they can plant chickens. Well, first thing you need to teach your son is sarcasm, sir. By the way, Sean, I don't know how many more yo-yo-yos you have left, bro. I think you need to start putting that on pre-record. I know, right? Don't tell him that. It's getting harder

and harder every day. Don't tell him that. Don't I get. I think you're right, though. Good morning, man. Peace, King. Thank you, brother. They do got chicken seeds, though. You plant chicken seeds. Stop it, man. You grow whatever kind of chicken you want. Grilled, teriyaki, fried. Stop it, man. Hello, who's this? you want. Grilled, teriyaki, fried. Stop it, man.

Hello, who's this? Hey. Hey, good morning. Get off your chest. Good morning, good morning. My first time, I finally able to get on one of, what y'all live, one of three? It depends where you're calling from. Where you calling from?

Where you calling from? I'm calling from Boy and B's. I'm calling from Boy and B's. From what? And I want to get something off my chest. Okay. I don't know what that's at. Okay, so I want to get off my chest about the bitter baby mothers

when their baby fathers move on with their life. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Now all of us saying you want to threaten the girl that they're with, their children, saying that, oh, I don't like the bitch. I'm going to sue her. Yeah, I don't like all this subbing you doing, yo. Speak directly, okay?

Speak directly or it don't matter. Who is this baby mama that's bothering you? Whose baby mother is bothering me? My fiancee's baby mother. Baby mother is bothering me. What's her name? Her name is Brandy. Now, what is he doing about this?

He's being his hands tied because he's doing this. Oh, my God. He got to handle that. You know, everybody's scared to handle her because they feel like she's a paralegal

and she know all of her work. But like I told her, you're the dummy because you started sending text messages threatening saying if you see me and my kids,

you'll shoot us in the face. So I called the police. Police say I can't do nothing about it until she threatens us police. Police say I can't do nothing about it until she threatens us again. Well, I don't want any violence to happen, but I think Brandy's trying to tell you that the boy is mine.

Just shut up, man. Yeah, these are terroristic threats. And I will say this, your fiance has a responsibility to step up and figure out how to take care of this. And you can't be just alone with his hands tied and you dealing with it by yourself. Exactly.

And all I want him to do is just step up and let her know, hey, I'm sorry, I don't move on. Now, you didn't want him because he wasn't good enough in your mother's eyes. But now he's over here and we don't condition each other and we don't step it up a notch and build business. Now you're bitter. Well, you should talk to him. Yeah, and maybe Brandi thinks it's still something there. You know what I mean? I mean, I was almost, you know, her significant other.

But you need to tell Brandi almost doesn't count. How? After seven years? I don't think you even need to be talking to this woman right now. I'm going to be honest. You should be a fiance. And listen, all of this stuff will not look good for her in court. So just make sure you keep a record of everything.

And good luck, all right? I will. Thank you, guys. Have a blessed day. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake that ass up early in the morning. Check out this Breakfast Club Rewind. Kicking it with Dame Dash. Now, last time you were here, we had a big conversation about ownership and being a boss. What are your thoughts about that now? Do you still feel the same way, would you say?

The reason I say that is a lot of people were upset the way that you said it, and some people agree with you. So what are your thoughts on it now? It doesn't matter. That's a test, right? If you can listen to somebody despite the way they say it doesn't matter about my tone it matters what i say so if someone isn't evolved enough to look past their ego because it's the ego that makes people offended so what i wasn't i wasn't saying don't have a job i was saying don't have a job

and not invest in something else like i said as a result i saw the whole world change behind that at least within our culture i saw an awareness sometimes, all the time to make a change, we have to be disruptive.

The other 12 self-proclaimed F-boys. Bro. Bro. Bro. Bro.

He's really cute, but he looks like he's gonna ruin my life. It's up to these three ladies and you at home to figure out who the F is who. Okay, I get it now, because I was sitting there thinking, why would you want to date an F-boy? Like, would you kiss an F-boy and he turns into a prince, but there's 12 F-boys, 12 nice guys.

Right, so you don't know who's who. So the F-boys are playing as nice guys. And the question is, can F-boy and he turns into a prince, but there's 12 F-boys, 12 nice guys. Right, so you don't know who's who. So the F-boys are playing as nice guys. And the question is, can F-boys truly reform or do nice guys always finish last? Yes, they can. I'm a former F-boy. F-boys can absolutely, positively evolve, but you have to want to evolve. That's right. Okay. Accountability

is key. Well, the show is going to debut July 29th. And you know, women always wonder, we wonder, why do we like these guys? So you heard her. She said, is he going to ruin my life? I think it's a lot of trauma bonding, too. I think some women can be F girls and not realize it. So I think it's a lot of trauma bonding, especially when you're younger. All right.

Now, since we're talking about TV, let's talk about Shonda Rhimes and her deal at Netflix. Stupid. She has gotten a significant raise. Now, let's talk about it. She originally, back in 2017, inked a deal. And the money for that was in the $100 million to $150 million range. Well, now this new raise will push her into the $300 to $400 million range. So she's not going anywhere.

Drop a bomb for Shonda Rhimes. But it's the details of the deal, though. It covers so much things. All right, film, games, VR, branding, and merchandising, live events and experiences. I love it. All of that. Yeah, man.

Shonda Rhimes did that. I mean, but you know, she's Shonda Rhimes number one. But when you're somebody like Shonda Rhimes and you go to Netflix and you deliver a hit show, their biggest show ever, right? Bridgerton? Yeah, Bridgerton is an amazing show. I cannot wait for the next season. Although we are going to miss, what's his name? Regé-Jean? Mm-hmm. The guy that Envy wanted to play.

I'm still waiting for my call, Shonda Rhimes. I know you're kind of busy with the 300 million, but if you need somebody to replace Regé, or Regé, whatever you like to call him, Rashawn is ready. No shade, but no. Okay, and... You've been rejected from FBoy Island. FBoy, get out of here.

That wasn't funny. That was hilarious. I'm not laughing. All right. And Cedric the Entertainer is going to be hosting the Emmys for the first time ever. So that's going to be happening in September as the show returns to a live in-person format. There'll be a limited audience of nominees and their guests present there. But it should be interesting. He put out a statement.

Since I was a little boy huddled up next to my grandmother, television has always been my reliable friend. So it is an enormous honor for me to host this year's Emmy Awards. Throughout the roller coaster of a year that we have all lived through, television has helped us stay connected as a society like never before. And not only entertain us, but as it always has, it helped to open our eyes, educate us, and hopefully brought about a better understanding of who we are as a people. I can't wait to take the stage to celebrate all of the great shows and performances that made us laugh, cry, dance, and sing over the past year. I like that rumor report.

All I hear is a bunch of black people in the industry winning. That's good. Everybody get this money before democracy crumbles so we can have money to move to Ghana. And you can see this September 19th. Have you all watched his show, The Neighborhood? No.

It's comedy on CBS. It's really funny. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've seen that before. That's old. Yeah, I actually watch it always on the plane. That's how I saw the whole series at once. All right.

Well, that is your rumor report. And the nominations are going to be this morning, so we'll keep an eye out for those. All right. That's very inspiring. We should look to her team, though, too, because you've got to have a great team to make things like that happen. Yeah, her team hasn't reached out to me yet, but I'm still waiting.

I mean, like her management and agents, agencies, ICMs. Salute to ICMs. Now, Front Page News, next, what are we talking about? Yes, and let's talk some more about these vaccines and what's going on now with Johnson & Johnson. Also, Pfizer, do you need to get that booster? We'll give you some info. All right, we'll get into that next.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,

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

I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Now, the USA Olympic team lost to Australia. Yes. What's going on with the team? Nothing. It's just a sign of the times.

It's just a reflection of where America is. America, we don't lead in nothing anymore. Okay? Goodness gracious. We're the biggest manufacturers of noise on the planet. Did you watch the game or no? I watched the last five minutes. I don't even think they scored.

I don't think the USA scored the last four minutes and some change. Maybe I'm tripping. I don't remember them scoring. Did they look like they really want to play or did they just look like they're just going through the motions? I don't know. I really don't know. They're just playing ball and they lost.

All right, what else we got, Yeezy? Well, let's talk about a child care fund for athletes who are mothers. Ahead of her fifth Olympic Games, Allison Felix is making sure mothers of young children like herself have the financial resources that they need for child care. So she's partnered with her sponsor, Athleta, and the Women's Sports Foundation. They've created the Power of She Fund child care grants. This grant program has committed $200,000.

They're going to help fund child care costs for mothers who are also athletes who have to travel to competitions. I love it. Dropping the clues bombs for Allison Felix. I said her name right. Right. Alison Felix. All right. Now, the U.S. FDA has issued a warning of an increased risk of. I don't know if I pronounce this right. Gullion Barr. It's a rare neurological disorder that you could get following the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. There were 100 preliminary cases of the syndrome reported among the 12.5 million doses administered. They said 95 of those

cases were serious and required hospitalization and there was one death. Recall that Johnson & Johnson vaccine. You can't fry that and make the germs go away. You can't get that back. I thought they already recalled the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. They said it was okay to use again after they paused it. They paused it.

And then they said that. Listen. we can't even use the baby powder. I don't know if I want to use the... But all right, and let's talk about Pfizer also. You know, you guys were discussing yesterday about whether or not you'll need that booster shot. And I know we had Dr. Fauci, you guys played that audio just as a recap. Here it is again. Right now, given the data and the information we have, we do not need to give people a third shot, a boost,

superimposed upon the two doses you get with the mRNA and the one dose you get with J&J. But that doesn't mean we stop there. There are studies being done now, ongoing as we speak, about looking at the feasibility about if and when we should be boosting people. So this isn't something that we say, no, we don't need a boost right now. The story's ended forever. Now, Pfizer last week had planned to ask to authorize a booster dose, but yesterday they had a briefing from Pfizer with the Health and Human Services, and they said they're going to continue to discuss when and if these booster shots will be needed in the future. But as for now, they're saying you don't really need to get

that booster shot. You should not order booster shots for people who are already vaccinated while other countries still haven't gotten their vaccines for COVID-19. Yeah, that's not how this works. Y'all can't even convince people to get the first two shots. Now you want to add a third? No, thank you. And by the way, I just want to talk about this story that came out yesterday.

Coffee consumption has been linked to a lower risk of COVID-19 infection. And I do have a coffee company called Coffee Uplifts People. So we can do coffee instead of the vaccine? Don't put that out there. They're saying at least one cup daily was associated with a lower risk of infection of COVID-19, according to a study. Now, they did an analysis of nearly 40,000 participants, and they said that there was about a 10% decrease in risk of COVID-19 compared.

Yes, if you didn't have a cup of coffee a day. The best part of waking up? So one cup of coffee, by the way, because as I told you before, coffee does have a lot of great properties. They have antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties, and there's a lot of health benefits to drinking coffee. So what I just heard was if you drink coffee, you don't get COVID. That's what I heard. Folgers over Pfizer.

No, what's your brand called? What's your brand? Coffee Uplifts People. Bring the cup. That's the acronym, right? Yeah, cup. But what I will say, it's a 10%, okay? It gives you 10%.

Nope. That's not what I heard, G. I heard coffee kills COVID. I will say anything that you can do to lower your risk is important. And I don't even like coffee. Do we sniff it or drink it? I think you would like coffee. And I just want to give you some advice.

If you're not a coffee drinker normally, what I do is I do a shot of espresso on the rocks with some almond milk in the morning. It's delicious. Let me order me a shot right now for COVID. Take that with some sea moss. I'll be straight. Yeah, because what really the when people drink coffee and saying there's things that's not good is because they add a lot of cream. They add a lot of sugar. I don't add any of that. So coffee straight kills COVID is what you're telling us this morning. Y'all sound like Donald Trump right now. Nobody sounds like Donald Trump. I would never ever put out false information, but they did lower the risk

by 10% in the study of 40,000 people. Okay, so if I drink, okay, let me get this right. If I drink coffee, it lowers the risk of me getting COVID by 10%. Yes, according to these studies.

So I need to drink 10, 20, 30. One cup. It says one cup. If I drink 10 cups, so that's 100%. That's 100%. That's what I heard. Listen, if you get the coffee uplifts people, then yes, drink 10 cups a day.

Well, pass the cups, ye. No, but I would not say drink 10 cups of coffee a day. I'm just putting that out there. I will if it kills COVID. No. There's somebody out there right now like, give me 10 cups of coffee. I'm going to let y'all know that. The Breakfast Club said 10 cups of coffee.

All right, that's your front page news. Let me get out of here. That's right. It'll kill COVID, but it'll give you a heart attack. All right? Okay? Woo. All right, that's your front page news. Let me get out of here. That's right. It'll kill COVID, but it'll give you a heart attack. All right? Okay? Woo! All right.

Well, thank you, Miss Ye. Drink coffee. All right. Now, when we come back, where can they get your coffee? CoffeeUpliftsPeople.com. There you go. All right. Now, when we come back from the Ghetto Boys.

That's right. Willie D and Scarface will be joining us. Yes, they launched a new podcast called Ghetto Boys Reloaded on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network And they're celebrating 30 years Of We Can't Be Stopped We Can't Be Stopped came out 30 years ago July 9th, I believe

He said I ain't gonna go that far. Damn it, man. He ain't gonna go that far. Damn it.

I'm gonna let him tell the whole story, man. You gotta give him the headphones. You gotta give him the headphones too, Face. Well, so he really just came out and he asked. I mean, he didn't even ask me.

I just told him, like, when everything was going down, I was saying, hey, man, you don't have to go through all of that. If I'm a match, I'm going to do it. Simple as that. Damn. That's very honorable of you, young man. I appreciate it. Did Willie D try to see if he was a match?

No. Say it, man. No, no. Hey, look. Hey, look. It wouldn't have made a lot of sense for me to try to see if I was a match. Because I don't like that guy like that. You know what I mean?

But he got plenty of people who do like him more than I like him. They were lined up around the corner. They was hitting me all up. Hey, man, tell Scott I got a job for him. Calling me all from out of the country, man. Different parts of the real. Different parts of the real. DMing me.

Can't they just say, alright, let's go in and do it? So, what happens now? Man, they need that $260, let's go in and do it? So what happens now? Man, they need that $260,000. Oh, my goodness.

Tell us about this podcast and how you guys got connected on this podcast and even thought about doing it. Man, listen, I had to put my foot down. Because, you know, women don't agree with shit agree with i say nothing this guy is incorrigible wait wait wait incorrigible what what does incorrigible mean difficult right yeah i mean just think about who you are man and be honest so just say i'm hard to work with will yeah i mean

you're hard to work with man is he for real very hard to since the beginning here's a lot here's a lot here's a thing about bread bread just likes challenges yeah things are going too smoothly he got to cut man you ain't cool you ain't fly you ain't hard you think that now you just like to shake it up man but he called me and he was like man you want to do this ghetto boys podcast and he was like yeah i mean i i was i was at first you know you know it's always first and foremost how we're gonna do it and what what is it gonna what is that gonna look like and he was like man let's get charlamagne on the phone i was like okay and uh you know when you expressed how how excited you was about it i know i was like, man, let's get Charlamagne on the phone. I was like, okay. And, you know, when you expressed how excited you was about it,

I was like, okay, it's not just in our head, you know, because we got a lot of respect for you in this media world. And so, hey, it was a wrap after that, man, because we know me and Brad, we click, man. We just got that chemistry, man. It's like it don't matter if we don't work together for five years. When we come back together, man, it's magic. And what are you guys talking about?

Are you talking topical? Is it growing up in the industry? Is it a little bit of everything? What are you guys going to be discussing during this podcast? It's more of conversations. Willie got a sex trafficker, a prostitute rehabilitator on there. He got a sex therapist on there. Who's the prostitute rehabilitator? You talking about

Tony? Tony Rivera? No, Kathy Griffin. Kathy Griffin? Not that Kathy Griffin. We got our own Kathy Griffin in Houston. She's so fired. I think that her interview, when it's finally done, I think she's going to shake up the internet

for real. She is the Harriet Tupman of hoes. Explain. She saved. Hey, hey, hey, this is what she said. I'm not. Oh, that's her word. I was about to say, jeez.

That's what she said she was. She said, I am the Harriet Tubman of hoes. And what she does is she saved women from the streets. Okay. You know, if you're out there living that life and you want to get out, you know, she can help you. Have y'all always had this relationship since the beginning, you and Willie,

and even Bill? Man, we never liked each other. I can attest to that. Because I was listening to the first podcast with Jay Prince and Willie, you didn't even want to be in the group. I didn't. Because what I thought would happen happened.

Every single group that ever existed, you have a bunch of drama. And I don't like doing stuff where I can't run the distance. Like, if I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it for real. And I'm going to be loyal to it. That is so not true. That is a lie.

That's a lie. Willie, you left the group first. I'm still in ghetto, boy. I never left. Let me explain why I left the group first, though. The reason why I left the group is because I had fulfilled my contractual obligations as a group member.

When Jay asked me to be in the group, it was never supposed to be long-term. It was supposed to be a temporary thing. It was like, okay, man, help me do this. Jay was like, help me do this. Help me do this. Shut your ass up for a minute, man. God damn.

So Jay was asking me. He always interrupts me, man. That's another thing. He has to work on that. He has to work on just being a little bit more courteous. I mean, I know he's trying to get a kidney and things, but I think that's more important than that kidney. He has to work on his people skills.

How many times did y'all fight? Never. Me and Brad never. We never fought. We don't even ever argue, man. No, no, no. That's my dog. That's my dog.

Bill tried. He's my dog for life. He said, but Bill nah. That's my dog. That's my dog. Bill tried. Yeah. Oh, for life. He said, but Bill tried. That's my dog, man. For real. So Jay was like, do this for me, man.

And woom, woom. So I was like, okay, I'm going to do that. And so I did it. And once I did it, I was like, okay, I'm going to go do my solo thing. And that's how that went. What's your story, Mr. Jordan? I think that Willie just got too big for the group man like willie was bigger than the ghetto boys i appreciate him because he did make me go solo had it not had willie not left

the group we would have never heard no solo albums from me really i don't know about that man i was that content in the group willie stop i don't know about that oh stop man we never had this conversation but i don't know about that. I think that once you got hot, you know, I think your ass was going to bounce no matter what. Let me tell you something about his solo album. I didn't even know he was doing a solo album until it was time to take the picture. Really?

Oh, man. Let's talk about that. Let's talk about that. Hey, man. Hold up, man. He was doing, look, we're in a group. We doing shows. We doing shows. We doing videos. We doing all kinds of stuff together, right? I didn't even know that he was doing a solo album until it was time to take the album

from a picture. So, FaZe, is that what happened? I don't recall. That's a story. I'm sticking to it. All right, we got more with Willie D and Scarface from the Ghetto Boys. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Willie D and Scarface from Ghetto Boys. Now, would you guys do versus? is that something that you guys would be doing I won't Willie will no I won't man have you heard my catalog

man yes sir one of the best ever I'm sure there's somebody out there that will try to nobody want to with me there's nobody even in your lane face I mean yeah that would be tough like there's no I can't even think of too many even in your lane, Face. Period. Yeah, that would be tough. I can't even think of too many artists in your lane.

There's a reason Brad Jordan is on damn near everybody's top five from north to the south to the west. There's not too many people going to name a top five that don't put Scarface in there. Who about you, Willie? Hey, man. Everybody want to f*** with Will? Hey, listen. Here's the thing for me.

When the verses first started, I liked it. It was like it brought us together. Now it just seems like it's just a bunch of s***. It's a s*** show. And I like those guys that do it. But I'm just saying, I think it's gotten out of control. And I don't feel the camaraderie like I did when it first came out. I don't feel the love like I did when it first came out. I don't feel the love like I did when it first came out.

Like listening to those first battles. You know, when you listen to Babyface and Teddy Riley, even with the technical difficulties and stuff, it was just love. You felt it. And then it went from that to a dark place. It depends on like Osley Brothers, Earth, Wind & Fire was really like

that was love. Osley Brothers and Earth, Wind & Fire was great until Steve Harvey f***ed it up. What Steve Harvey do? All that goddamn talking bro that's how he f***ed it up.

Yeah. All that damn talking. Willie don't care for Steve all that going down memory lane when I if I'm gonna listen to verses and I'm gonna hear some

people reminisce and tell stories I wanna hear from the artists who made the music just tell the truth Willie you don't care for Mr. Harvey I'm just saying bro I'm just saying

but UGK born in that that would be great for the city nah that's love it's love I love UGK but Bun, and that would be great for the city. Nah. Because that's love. It's love.

It's not bad. I love UGK, but I just. It's only 20. Ghetto Boys is a difficult matchup. But it's 20. It's just 20. I don't like that one. Maybe Ghetto Boys versus NWA.

That'd be a good celebration. You know what? Speaking of NWA, you know, I like Cube's take. That's my favorite group, dude. Cube was saying that if he was to do a versus, he would rather see, do a versus with, like, say, for instance, if he did something with Public Enemy. You know, Chuck D played his favorite Cube songs,

and Cube played, you know, his favorite Public Enemy songs. That's dope to me. I do one with Cube on solo. I do one with Cube solo. Cube and Face. I play all my favorite Cube s***, and he'll play all his favorite Face s***. Yeah, I do that. Cube and Face. Cube and Face. I'll play all my favorite Cube s***. And he'll play all his favorite Face s***. Yeah, I'll do that.

Cube and Face. Cube and Face feel like it makes some sense. Yeah, that makes sense. Because both of y'all are socially conscious, you know, yet street. That could make some sense. Yeah, I'll do one with Cube. I wanted to ask y'all, since we're talking about NWA and Ghetto Boys, what are y'all thoughts on what they call cancel culture,

especially in hip-hop? Because y'all thoughts on like on what they call cancel culture especially in in hip-hop because you know y'all know as much as i do hip-hop was a wild place back in the day you know the thing about that man is that the same people who are a part of the cancel culture are the same people who are part of the don't judge culture they're the same one the thing about these people or many of these people are, they're like dogs. Like if a dog see that you're afraid of him, he'll come after you. But if that dog tense up and start growling at you and you growl back and you tense up like what? And pick up a stick and bust him across his damn head, he gonna take off running. And that's how you got to do these fools, man. You can't be

afraid of these people. All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Ain't none of us perfect. We all got a past. You know what I'm saying? Everybody in jail is not a criminal. Everybody in church ain't a saint. And everybody in your face ain't your friend. So all these people out here, man, with all of this, like, going back, you know, digging up s*** a thousand years

ago, people change. People evolve. Now, if you're the same person that you were, you know, years later or whatever whatever that's different is there any is there any lyrics y'all listen to y'all listen back to y'all's and cringe from years ago i do ball it holds oh come on willie that's the jam yeah i know i know but but here's the thing but here's the thing i'm gonna tell you why i'm gonna tell you why i cringe though like when i made song, I thought that I was going to discourage women from wearing weave and stuff like that. Because this was the very beginning. This is like when just only, like, you walk in the club, four or five, you know, maybe three women got weave in their head or whatever.

So I'm thinking, I'm going to discourage. I'm going to make this movement. I'm finna make this movement, man. I'm gonna make this song. I'm just gonna throw out every insult I can think of. And man, that shit was like pouring gasoline on fire. Really? I mean, like, yeah. And people had all of these different stories about the song

and when they hear it and whatever. And people having fights in school behind the song and stuff because people would tease anybody that had some hair challenges or whatever maybe teasing them or whatever and even the thing that that made me a little cautious about that though is that i remember i received a letter from a fan once and she told me that when her boyfriend and her broke up, her boyfriend broke up with her when she was pregnant. And she was in a really bad state. And she was suicidal.

She said she listened to Ball Head Hose every day and it made her laugh. And it saved her life. Wow. And like out of all of the songs we've made, when we actually go into, sometimes go into these sessions, and we think, man, this song is going to save some people. This song is going to be great. I never thought Boy It Hosts

would be that song, you know. I don't believe you. What you don't believe, man? I don't believe that girl drunk, you know, let her talk about her s***. Well, you know, you don't believe a lot of s***, Brad. That don't mean it's not true. Faith, what lyrics

do you have of yours that you listen to now and cringe i got a song called the b word and um i made a captain i said she don't give a about the ring the kids for 15 years this spring chill in the house and the bed job about then you sheets full of drip stains wash up off and bounce i feel bad about that why because he was lying but you know the thing about all those records man y'all was making records with the information y'all had at the time and the knowledge and wisdom y'all had at the time yeah that's true that's true can't be mad you can't hold yourselves accountable for those. Yeah, man, but I feel bad with my mama here.

True, true. Nah, I get it. Now, did you have an issue with Mark Lamont Hill and his stance on Bill Cowher? Yeah, I did, man. But the thing about it is that we had a conversation about that. He was respectful

enough to say, man, let's have a conversation about that. You know, he was respectful enough to, you know, say, man, let's have a conversation about that. And we talked about it. And, you know, we agreed basically to disagree. I feel like we have a problem, you know, getting on cold. Whether you think Bill Cosby is guilty or not is besides the point. Because we have to understand such thing as symbolism. Okay. And so

Bill Cosby, if you look past, you know, whatever that he was accused of doing or whatever, the symbolism is that he represents a black man that was illegally incarcerated. What makes it illegal?

He did a prosecution agreement where they couldn't prosecute him for his crimes. He need to double back and sue the state. I'm sure he will be. Now, do you think y'all would ever run for Houston City Council again? I am. You are? Okay. If I run again, it won't be city council. I'll probably run for a commissioner position or something like that.

It'll be a few years down the line. Because I definitely got to get this felony off my record. All right. We got more with Willie D and Scarface from the ghetto boys. When we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club. Good morning.

Morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the breakfast club. We're still kicking it with Scarface and Willie D from the ghetto boys. Charlamagne. I think y'all need to do something about.

We can't be stopped, man. Y'all got to spend at least an hour just talking about like the making of that album. You know, the highs and lows of that album when y'all did it 30 years is a big deal, man. The funniest thing about that album is like,

we went through a lot making that album. Cause you know, that's when red left the group, Willie and red left the group on the same album. Wow. Me and bill. Yeah. Red left the group first Willie and Red left the group on the same album. Wow. So did me and Bill, yeah. Red left the group first, man. Like, Red got a check from Rap-A-Lot and cashed it, bro.

And ended up getting married. And then, you know, two or three months later, he looked like his wife didn't want him in the group no more. Damn. Bill got his eyes shot out. You know, we in the hospital, and Bill is full of painkillers or whatever they give you when you get your eyes shot out. We in the hospital and Bill is full of painkillers or whatever they give you when you get your eye shot out. They put Bill on the gurney, man.

They pushed Bill in the hallway and me and Willie was walking. That was a real shot. Who took that picture? Y'all remember? Yeah, Cliff Blige. Who orchestrated that picture, Willie? I don't give a f*** if he's going to die tonight. He's going to snap this shot.

Say it, man. Who said that? First of all, we went to the hospital because Bill got shot. We ain't tripping on no record coming out of nothing. We like going in to check on our homie, right? That's true. That's true. Now, we get there, and we find right? That's true. That's true.

Now, we get there and we find out that Bill is okay. He's going to survive. But he lost his eye. He's heavily medicated. I go in, check on Bill. He's all right. In my mind, I'm thinking, okay, revenge. Bill say, well, don't hurt her.

It was my fault. I made her shoot me. Oh, Willie. So at this time, I ain't even tripping now, like on the girl. I'm like, okay, everything cool. He lost his eye. We're going to be all right. Now, we go back downstairs, and we're huddled up.

Where was I at, Willie? Where was I at? You were there somewhere. I don't know what hell you was. I ain't standing there looking at your ass like that. Okay, go ahead. This dude right here, man, I swear to God, man. Where you come from, man?

I ain't going nowhere. We're downstairs and Cliff is like, what we going to do about the album cover? Oh, Lord. And I said, we can take it right now you know he he ain't dead and so he said who who's gonna ask him i said i'll ask him he got my man just got shot in his eye let's take this out because this album cover picture right now you know why i had that mentality because we said we can't be stopped. Right. Boy, this is so bad. What? But listen, listen.

Okay, so either you're going to be stopped, either you can be stopped, or you can't be stopped. God damn it, which one is it? Which one is it? I'm so sick and tired of these soft-ass, fluffy motherfuckers around here. Everybody hard, everybody real, everybody going to come through.

And then when it's time to be real and come through and be hard, everybody, oh, man, I don't think we're going to go. Willie, you just got shot in the eye with it. Oh, man, we got a damn album to do, bro. We got an album coming. That's black people in a nutshell. Nah, man.

We going to swim through our trauma. We talking about soldiers, bro. Yeah. We talking about soldiers. We ghetto boys, man. We can't be stopped. Face, you look like you don't agree. He don't agree with a lot of you don't agree it was a legendary cover

that's a legendary cover he don't agree with a lot of things that I say man but I agree man okay cool now go ahead I swear to God man this dude this dude is one of the most difficult people that I've ever met in my life, man. Who more difficult? Him or Bill? God bless the dead. Willie's making me out to be the bad guy in the group, man. Nah. I mean,

I guess we all were bad to an extent. I would love to see them 80 years old. I can't wait. At a barbecue, talking these stories. I can't wait. Forget a barbecue, talking these stories still arguing each other. I can't wait. Forget 80. I like them now.

That's why the podcast is good. Listen, man, and then I'm done talking about Willie for good, but we had a concert and somebody grabbed Willie's foot while he was on stage.

What happened? Kicked him in the head. Why'd he grab your foot, Willie? I can't remember, man. You know, I mean, it's instincts. You know, when you're

on stage and you're doing your thing, you don't really be tripping like that, man. You just be focused on what you gotta do, and then somebody grab your leg and, you know, like, kind of like, you know, react. You just look down and make sure that they're not, you know, doing nothing to your foot, man, but Willie kicked them in the head.

Yo, I can't with these two. I don't even know why I told the story man like Willie's the bad guy first of all first of all I am not the bad guy. I am the guy that periodically does bad things. That does not make me the bad guy. Get in contact. Reload it. Definitely check it out.

And we appreciate you. When does the podcast drop? Every what? It's every Monday. Every Monday. Before we go, I want to thank Charlamagne for keeping my ass out of trouble. And two, I want to tell you the last story, and then we can cut this shit off. But, man, Willie's the bad guy because, well, he ain't that bad.

But I remember this fight that him and Bill had one time. We was in Mississippi. Okay. And we was in a limo. And him and Bill got to arguing, right? Mm-hmm. And Bill said, trench coats and gangster f***s. And then him and Willie D had a fight.

Who won? Really, Andy? I think Bill might have got Will that game. I was thinking, if they in the limo, I don't know. If they in the limo sitting down, I don't know. We don't remember that s**t.

Bill duked him up. No, I'm lying, y'all. Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't. But Willie, did you take it easy, though? Because you was like, man, Bill, it's Bill. Bro, I mean, a fighter's a fighter. And Willie, he a golden glove now. Willie said a fighter's a s**t.

You a golden glove, right, Willie? Yes, sir. Willie is a golden glove now. Willie said a fight is a f***. You a golden glove, right, Willie? Yes, sir. Willie is a golden glove. That's Willie M. Well, I appreciate y'all having me. Hey, Faze, be easy, man. I hope you get your surgery soon. Salute to your son.

Peace, King. Yeah. Hey. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to Report. This is the Rumor Report.

Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Again, this is Red's second day here. He turned a little red. You might hear some things. This is his first week. What do you do? I was out of the room.

What do you do? Don't worry about it. He just pressed the wrong drop for a second. We're not going to put too much pressure on him. Not too much pressure on Red. Red turns red pretty fast. He got until Friday. This is his second day.

Is that why his name is Red? Yes. We give him until Friday. We're going to let Red live. Just letting the people know. If you hear a little thing, he's doing his thing. It's taking a little time. Alright. Well, let's talk about Stephen A. Smith. He is facing backlash and that's for saying Shohei Ohtani

needing an interpreter is harmful to Major League Baseball. Here is what he said. This brother is special. Make no mistake about it. But the fact that you got a foreign player that doesn't speak English, that needs an interpreter, believe it or not, I think contributes to harming the game to some degree

when that's your box office appeal. It needs to be somebody like Bryce Harper, Mike Trout, those guys. So, yes, there was a lot of backlash from that. Was he saying that other people need to be the stars? No, I think he was just saying, from what I saw yesterday, he was saying that the fact that

he needs an interpreter and he doesn't really speak English keeps him from being the face of American baseball. Which is something I've heard before in regards to boxers. I've heard that about Canelo Alvarez and Triple G. They always say if they could speak English, they'd be the biggest stars in boxing. They said that about Latino baseball players too.

I was going to say, yeah, there's a lot of people who don't speak. Great English, and sometimes they say they can't be the face of the franchise because they can't necessarily speak. I've heard that before. Yeah, I've heard that. I don't watch baseball. I think baseball was much better when everybody was on steroids speak. I've heard that before. Yeah, I've heard that. I don't watch baseball. I mean, you know, I think baseball was much better when everybody was on steroids.

But I've heard that before. All right, well, he did double down on his statements. Here's what he said. People are misinterpreting what I'm saying. I'm not talking about the state of the game. Baseball's a great game, a great sport, and some of the greatest players in the world are foreign players. That's not what I was trying to say.

I'm talking about the marketability and the promotion of the sport. If you are a sport trying to ingratiate yourself with the American public the way Major League Baseball is because of the problems that you've been having to deal with in terms of improving the attractiveness of the sport, it helps if you spoke the english language i've i mean i've literally heard that a lot of times especially in regards to like boxers canelo alvarez and triple g i hear it all the time about baseball but we get what he's saying

though right i don't think he's saying anything crazy what he's saying is for baseball in america i think it's it's easier to sell an american player that's what he's saying is for baseball in America, I think it's easier to sell an American player. That's what he's saying, right? He's not saying shun all international players. He didn't say that. Right. Well, he did put out an apology after he doubled down. He said, let me apologize right now. As I'm

watching things unfold, let me say that I never intended to offend any community, particularly the Asian community, and especially Shohei Ohtani himself. As an African-American keenly aware of the damage stereotyping has done to many in this country, it should have elevated my sensitivities even more. Based on my words, I failed in that regard, and it's on me and me alone. Ohtani is one of the brightest stars in all of sports. He is making a difference as it pertains to inclusiveness and leadership.

I should have embraced that in my comments. Instead, I screwed up. In this day and age, with all the violence being perpetrated against the Asian community, my comments, albeit unintentional, were clearly insensitive and regrettable. There's simply no other way to put it. I'm sincerely sorry for my angst. I've called with my comments on first take. This morning, again, I am sorry, and I'll happily reiterate these words more extensively

tomorrow morning as well. I mean, well, if'll happily reiterate these words more extensively tomorrow morning as well. I mean, well, if you felt like you should apologize, that's on him. That's all personal decisions. But, I mean, I've heard that before. You know what I heard that about? Even though they speak English. Remember in wrestling, the Ultimate Warrior and Bill Goldberg? Like, you know, they weren't great with the wordplay as Rock and Stone Cold were.

So people always said that's why they never got to that level of stardom. Yeah, but baseball is a bunch of huge international players from the Yankees having Tanaka to so many different international players. Remember when Hideki Matsui was at the top of Major League Baseball? I feel like they had a plane named after him and everything. I don't know none of these people you're talking about. I know Barry Bonds, Mark McGuire. And I remember a lot of Japanese people were coming out to the games

just to see them play, too. All right, now DaBaby actually finessed some teenagers who were trying to finesse him. Well, he put them up on some game. He went on Instagram, and he shared video footage of himself. He was trying to purchase candy from these two teens. They said they were trying to raise money, and they tried to swindle him listen to this what's going for the box what you charge for

you give me one two what they're two dollars a piece Exactly. It was 34 times two, my boy. It ain't 200. It ain't even $100. You give me one, two. What, they're $2 a piece? Dollar each. Dollar each. All right, good. You ain't got to use your head, man. You ain't got to try to play.

I was going to bless you anyway. You would have gotten the $200. Now you got $2. Dropping the Clues bombs for the baby for being a frugal Carolina Negro. Okay. So they tried to charge him $200 for the box of candy, right? So there were 34 packs of candy in the box, and then they said they charged $2 for one pack.

So two times $34 is $68. The baby just walk out of a truck with all that jewelry on it. That's the problem, though. They did that because it's the baby. That's all they did. I get it. How much that box? $200? They put the rapper tax on the baby. And guess what? The baby probably would have gave him $100 and said, keep the change anyway. He told me he would have did that.

Hey. Don't do that to people, man. I would have tried it too, man. Hey. The baby, how much that box? $200. I don't like people that do that. They see you and because of what you do or who you are, they think that they can overcharge

you and you just going to pay. No. All right. Well, I mean, it was nice of him to too, to even say how much for the box. That's when you say, well, let me see. Hold on. Let me calculate. Sometimes people throw numbers out too fast, too.

That's why he threw it out too fast. He should have calculated a little better. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. I get it. I'd have to do it out, too.

How did you just do it? Did you just mix with your mouth? No, I'm thinking about it. I'm like, I want to do this. I'm thinking to watch the baby. Spends a lot of money. I'd have to do it out, too. The hell did you just do? Did you just mix with your mouth? No, I'm thinking about it. I'm like, I want to do it. I'm thinking to watch the baby. Spends a lot of money. I'd have to do it out, too, honey. No, you can't do that, man.

Just charge the price. You would have watched the baby with $2. I would have watched the baby with $2. The baby was going to bless you. I promise you he would have gave him $50 or something and said, keep the change. Give him $100 and say, keep the change. I guarantee you he would have did that. All right.

All right. Well, who are you giving your donkey to? You know, let's talk white fragility for after the hour. We need Abigail Elphick to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with her. All right.

We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Hey, what up, y'all? It's DJ Envy. The General Insurance understands

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small,

determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

The Breakfast Club, bitches! Alright, Charlene, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Hey! Donkey of the day for Tuesday, July 13th goes to Abigail Elphick. Boy, when I tell you the mayonnaise is heavy on this one, I'm talking Hellman's on Hellman's on Hellman's. I mean, this is a high-fat condiment made from egg yolks, vinegar, and lemon juice if I've ever seen one. If you ever wanted to know why too much goddamn mayonnaise ruins a dish, this is it. Now, I am a resident of New Jersey, a native of South Carolina, resident of New Jersey. All my kids are Jersey born except for my first one. She was born in Manhattan.

Here I go oversharing again. I'm saying all that to say in New Jersey, there is a mall that my wife likes to frequent. She used to frequent often, not as much anymore, and that is Short Hills Mall. Anjali Yee, you're a frequent visitor of Short Hills Mall. I was just there last week. How would you describe Short Hills Mall? Is it high-end? Yeah, it's very high-end.

It has a Neiman Marcus. It has Chanel. They got the Herms store, the Louis Vuitton. Christian Louboutin. The Channel store. They even have Restoration Hardware, full store there. Yeah's. Christian Louboutin. The Channel Store. Dior. Prada. Restoration Hardware. Full Starter.

Yeah, high-end stuff that I can't pronounce, nor do I care to learn to pronounce. They did close the Saks, though. They did close Saks, yeah. Oh, well. I can't pronounce none of that stuff. My mom used to work in that mall. Fendi. Okay.

I only care to pronounce black-owned luxury brands correctly, but Short Hills is a high-end mall. But this weekend, they were infiltrated by the ghetto. I mean, seriously. They might need to vaccinate the whole mall because abigail elphick pulled up and displayed a lack of class education and manners i mean just dangerously ratchet ass behavior i am currently reading a great book called my grandmother's hands racialized trauma and the pathway to mending our hearts and bodies in chapter seven discusses exactly what we saw on display in Short Hills Mall.

And that's white fragility. Also, the title of a great book by Robin DiAngelo. Now, what did Abigail's ghetto ass do? She savagely, ferociously attacked and attempted to maul a black woman. I don't want to mess this sister's name up. Her name looks like a store that's way too expensive in Short Hills. What is it? Ijeoma Yukenta? Ijeoma Yukenta? I think Beyonce got that new Yukenta bag, don't she? Oh, no, that's the Telfar. That new Yukenta not in yet.

But Queen Yukenta was just trying to buy some damn clean drawers. All she wanted was some no-show cheeky panties, maybe some corded thong panties. Maybe she was getting a five-pack of cotton lace waist cheeky panties. I don't know because it doesn't seem. You know too know because it doesn't seem... Well, I have a wife. Sorry that you don't know. I don't know. But I don't know

what kind of panties she bought because it doesn't seem like she got the opportunity to do this because she was bombarded by this thug named Abigail Elphick, okay, who was chasing her around the store and then charged at her with her hands open, ready to strike. Oh, Abigail chose violence for 500, Alex. Until she realized that Queen Ukinta was recording, OK, recording the whole exchange.

Now, what happened when Abigail realized Queen Ukinta was recording? Mayonnaise. All right. That's what happened. Just mayonnaise spread all over everything. And Victoria's Secret. Would you like to hear the type of white fragility that has been sending black people to early graves for years? Well, listen. Oh, God. No. It's you. It's you.

Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Now you are... Oh, my God! Do you see this? I never thought nothing like this would happen to me. She just tried to run and hit me. And now she... Did you see her? They all saw her. Karen had a breakdown. She tried to hit me. And now she... Did you see her?

They all saw her. Karen had a breakdown. She tried to hit me. Ask your workers. She tried to hit me. I'm just trying to hit you. Please don't record me. I just came to get my free panty. You know how you get the coupon in the mail? Yes.

No, why don't she walk away from me? We're not doing this. She's recording me! You keep lying, saying I'm threatening you. So I'm recording to protect myself. Get her! Get her! What?

Get away from me! Y'all better get this lady! Get the f***er! Get the f***er! Get the f***er. Look at this. White people. I'm so mad when that coupon expires and I didn't get my free panties from Victoria's Secret. She was wilding.

Excuse me, can you furl me these panties, please? I love it. Love it. The audio doesn't know justice. You really have to go watch this video to watch how whiteness works. Didn't D. Ray McKesson used to say something like that? Watch whiteness work. This lady's in Gettleman is white fragility on full display if you want to know why

some people push back on the concept of believe all women look no further than Abigail Elphick okay those are the same white tears that caused Emmett Till to be murdered all right because of Carolyn Bryant who lied about Emmett Till sexually harassing her in a grocery store oh we talk about Black Wall Street being burned to the ground but but do you know why? It all started after an elevator encounter between a 17-year-old white woman named Sarah Page and a 19-year-old black man named Dick Rowland. It was alleged that Rowland had assaulted Page in the elevator,

which he denied, but it didn't matter. Okay, news of a black man's alleged assault of a white woman spread like wildfire throughout the white community of Tulsa. They formed a racial mob and burned Black Wall Street down. Abigail Elphick knew exactly what she was doing and why she was doing it. Because in America, whiteness means fragility.

OK, white people, listen, only you can prevent forest fires. OK, I don't believe white people are inherently racist, but I do believe this American system is inherently racist. And when you are a white person who does things like this, then you know that this and you know that this system is inherently racist. Then you are weaponizing your whiteness against me. Therefore, you are racist, too. Now, how do we fix this? I don't know. What if she laid on the floor like she was dead? I was like, why is she laying on the floor? Because that's how whiteness works. She was weaponizing her whiteness, her white fragility against, you know,

this dangerous black skin that this sister possessed. Well, it's crazy that nobody was doing anything. Nothing. She was in there for like 10 minutes going off and nobody did anything.

Nobody intervened, security didn't escort the woman out. I don't know how we fixed this. I don't know. But my grandmother's hands, the book that I referenced earlier, has some answers. What should we do in regards to white fragility? Well, I have a piece of the audio version, courtesy of Audible. It's a couple minutes long, but I want to teach my white brothers and sisters this morning. How do we solve white fragility? I don't know. But listen. For centuries, Americans have lived with a strange contradictory myth. Black bodies are incredibly strong and frightening and can handle anything short of total destruction,

while white bodies are weak and vulnerable, especially to black bodies. So it's the job of black bodies to care for white bodies, soothe them and protect them, particularly from other Nope. Mm. nearly invulnerable, that destruction must be swift and ruthless. A common form of white fragility involves a strong and immediate defensive response whenever a white body is challenged on the subject of race and equality, or whenever the topic of race emerges. This has inspired a contorted form of white self-talk. We white people are incapable of soothing ourselves and feeling safe in the presence of black bodies. We are not just physically vulnerable.

We are also emotionally helpless when we are around black bodies. White fragility is a reflexive, protective response. A way for the white body to avoid experiencing the pain of its historical trauma inflicted by other white bodies. Many white Americans need to be confronted firmly and compassionately on their white fragility. Much of that fragility is a trauma-driven, lizard-brain defensiveness that quickly fights, flees from, or freezes out all such caring confrontation. There is only one way through this stalemate. White Americans must accept,

explore, and mend their centuries-old trauma around oppression and victimization. Whiteness does not equal fragility. That's a dodge created by white fragility itself. It's a way for white Americans to avoid the responsibility of soothing themselves, metabolizing their own historical and secondary trauma, accepting and moving through clean pain, and growing up. Growing the hell up. Please let Kathy Griffin give Abigail Elphick the biggest hee-haw. Please give this giant jar of mayo the biggest hee-haw. Let Chelsea Handler get in on this too.

I know she got something to say. Hee-haw, hee-haw. That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. That's right. Chris Rock got anything to say? I ain't scared of Al Pacino. No, that, goddammit. Pack a ass, pack a ass.

There you go, Chris. That Chris. I'm talking to both Chris's, okay? Goodness gracious. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Now, when we come back, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051.

Now, Stephen A. Smith, you have a clip of what Stephen A. 800-585-1051. Now Stephen A. Smith, you have a clip of what Stephen A. Smith said, brother. Let's play what Stephen A. Smith said. This brother is special. Make no mistake about it. But the fact that you got a foreign player that doesn't speak English, that needs an interpreter, believe it or not, I think contributes to harming

the game to some degree when that's your box office appeal. It needs to be somebody like Bryce Harper, Mike Trout, those guys. Let's open up the phone lines. What are your thoughts? 800-585-1051. Stephen A. Smith basically said the international player does not speak English. He needs an interpreter, and he feels like that can hurt the game of baseball.

Let's talk about it. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Stephen A. Smith. He was trending yesterday after some comments he made. Let's hear what he said. This brother is special. Make no mistake about it. But the fact that you got a foreign player that doesn't speak English, that needs an interpreter, believe it or not,

I think contributes to harming the game to some degree when that's your box office appeal. It needs to be somebody like Bryce Harper, Mike Trout, those guys. All right. So we're asking 805-85-1051. What do you think of his comments? We'll start with you. Yee, what do you think?

Well, I didn't like what he said at the end. Other people should be the face and it shouldn't be Shohei Ohtani. But I will say this. I looked it up and he does speak English. He actually, there's a speech that he gave in front of a live audience in English just a couple of years ago. And then I was looking at another thing, Ichiro Suzuki, and he actually explained why he uses a translator back in 2011. He said that we have to connect to our fans through the media. And when you talk about that, it's got to come from your heart.

And when it comes from your heart, it has to be absolutely consistent. There's a big risk you take without an interpreter because as professional baseball players, we are here to perform baseball, not to learn a language. And I think the other problem was Stephen A. Smith also said to learn English because it's easy. Right. Later on during during first take. And so people had an issue with that also. Well, first of all, let me tell you that I hate baseball. That's first and foremost. OK, it was way more exciting when everybody was on steroids. That's number one. But I don't know if what Stephen A said was offensive because I've heard this same rhetoric before.

I've heard it in regard to the boxers. You know, I love boxing. I've heard it in regard to Can boxers. I love boxing. I've heard it in regard to Canelo Alvarez and Triple G. They say that if they spoke English they'd be the biggest boxing stars in the world. I still think Canelo kind of is, personally. And I also feel like I've heard

commentators say that if some of the European stars in the NBA were white American, they would be bigger. So I understand what Stephen A was attempting to say, but I would have to talk to somebody who's offended by what he said to get a better understanding of why they feel like the things he said was offensive.

Look at all the Twitter comments. Somebody said that Shohei Otani's responsible for the 10 highest viewed regular season games this year and they said he shouldn't be considered a face of baseball because he needs an interpreter. Kind off that's what somebody said i mean it's easy to say that but um i mean aren't based aren't baseball ratings down like having having tv viewership numbers and stuff been low for baseball i mean that's another point steven a smith made i don't

know why the reason for that is but i mean if there is these superstars in the league and there's a disconnect between them and the audience, that could be a reason. I mean, they're all stars, but in my opinion, watching baseball and watching the kids watch the sport, to me, they are no super duper stars. Like when you think of Derek Jeter, he was a super duper star that these kids wanted to be. When you think of, you know, you can go back to Don Mattingly, Mark McGuire, Jose Canseco, Barry Bonds. These were kids that I don't see that now. When they say this guy, what's the brother's name that we talking about? Shohei Otani. Yeah, I mean, they say numbers wise, his talent is through the roof.

But you don't know the brother's name and he's one of the big names. But I hate baseball. But you know Derrick Jeter. You heard of Derrick Jeter before. Because of all know Derek Jeter. You heard of Derek Jeter before. Because of all the chicks he smashed. You heard of Don Mattingly. You never heard of Don Mattingly. He's the whole soul train.

Yo, shut up. You're a liar. He's the whole soul train. You heard of Barry Bonds. Yeah, of course I heard of Barry Bonds. Because of the sneakers. Alex Rodriguez. Yeah, because of the chicks he whipped.

I don't watch baseball. But you heard of old school. But he's not the person to be asking. Exactly. I'm old school. I'm David Justice and Ron James. Ten times he doesn't watch baseball. But why's not the person to be asking. Exactly. I'm old school. I'm David Justice and Ron James. Ten times he doesn't watch baseball. But why?

David used to date Holly Berry. Ron was short like me. And I'm from South Carolina. I used to watch the Braves all the time. Oakland Athletics. Okay, see. He used to steal a lot of bases. You liked him because he did a little shaky shake on his butt.

I thought the Oakland Athletics jerseys was dope. I hate you, man. I did. So I used to watch the A's sometime when they was on. Jose hate you, man. I did. So I used to watch the A's sometime when they was on. Jose Canseco, Ricky Henderson. Who else used to be on the A's? You know, forget it.

Let's go to the phone lines. King Griffey Jr., right? No. How long was this? Oh, the Seahawks. No, the Maguire. The Mariners, man. There you go.

Seattle. I hate him. Hey, what's up, bro? Yo, man. Hey, man. I do want to say, first of all, shout out to Dr. Sean.

Let's talk here about the state. Hey, we out here. We out here. You see. Let's talk to South Carolina State. We in the kitchen, man. Hey, we out, Chad. We out, Chad. You see me. I got my South Carolina State mask on today. Go ahead, brother. But yeah, man, I'm Stephen A. saying baseball is the whitest sport,

and it has the oldest fans. And all he was saying is somebody who needs an interpreter may not be marketable to the oldest, whitest fans in America. Oh, that's a good point. Oh, that's a good point. No, that's a good point. You know what's so funny? I learned that on ESPN yesterday that baseball is like 100-plus years old or something like that.

I didn't know that. Yeah, and the average age of their fans is 57. Yeah. They'll throw a 95-mile-per-hour fastball at your head if you look at the home run too long. They got, like, stupid unwritten rules and stuff. And then, like, y'all in New York, I heard you say Hodecky Mansui. He was big, but he was never bigger than Derek Jeter.

But that's my point. I'm saying, like, a lot of these players are big because they are super-duper stars and they are pitched to be that way. Like, Derek Jeter was the face of baseball, you know? I know people are acting like Shohei Ohtani is one of the faces of baseball now, no? But he's back because of his talent, not because he can't find baseball. I get what you're

saying. Alright. So you don't see nothing wrong with what Stephen A. Smith said? I mean, it's just the way he said it. He wasn't saying that you can't be a big superstar and be Japanese. He's just saying the majority of the sport, which the white people might not gravitate towards because you need an interpreter.

But you know, he speaks English. He does, but he majority uses an interpreter. Each of us can speak English too, but he was an interpreter because it was for his fan base. He wanted to show Japanese people that it's okay to speak your language,

which is cool, but the white people who mostly find the sport might not walk with it. English is a hard language. I think English is the hardest language to learn, too, because we don't have no rules. Like, they always say that it's not consistent. Okay. Thank you, man. That's a great point. Hello, who's this?

This is Andrew. Andrew, what's up, man? What did you think of what Stephen A. Smith said? Man, I think it's a bad take. I get where he's coming from. An international player not speaking English in America, that can be difficult. But you got to support those players. He's a star. He's a superstar. There's not a player like him right now. It's just a bad take overall. Okay. Well, since you watch baseball, I want to know what's the disconnect.

Why are baseball ratings dropping? I think baseball fans, honestly, I'm a white American. I think it's white America. I think a lot of them don't support players like that, but I think

when you have an undeniable star like that, it's hard to deny that. I think that's what Stephen A. Smith was saying. You know what I mean? Do you have a Derek Jeter jersey? I actually think. I do not. I got a Joey Votto one.

I'm from Ohio. Okay. Maybe that's what Stephen A. messed up because he was beating around the bush. What he wanted to say was white fans aren't going to support the Asian and Latino players. International players. But, you know, they said that ratings went up during the pandemic for Major League Baseball.

And they said there was a change in Nielsen and that also contributed to it looking like the numbers are down. I did hear Stephen A say that yesterday, too. He was talking about how baseball has an older demo and they're not bringing in anybody younger. 800-585-1051. We're talking about these comments that Stephen A. Smith said. Let's play them right fast. This brother is special. Make no mistake about it.

But the fact that you got a foreign player that doesn't speak English, that needs an interpreter, believe it or not, I think contributes to harming the game to some degree when that's your box office appeal. It needs to be somebody like Bryce Harper, Mike Trout, those guys. What are your thoughts? Call us up now. It's the Breakfast Club.

I know it now. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. That kudos, you deal with that? Call me. And your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic.

Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. If you're just joining us, we're talking about Stephen A. Smith and these comments that he said. This brother is special.

Make no mistake about it. But the fact that you got a foreign player that doesn't speak English, that needs an interpreter, believe it or not, I think contributes to harming the game to some degree when that's your box office appeal. It needs to be somebody like Bryce Harper, Mike Trout, those guys. So we're just taking your call and seeing what your thoughts are. Hello, who's this?

Hello. Yeah, man, it's Corey from Brooklyn. Corey, good morning. We're talking about Stephen A. Smith. What were your thoughts on what he said? I mean, I know he can say some pretty outlandish things, but I agree with him. I mean, if you're thinking about trying to market a baseball player in like a commercial or something, and he can't speak

English, that's going to sound crazy. Like, I know what he's talking about. I think he can speak English, by the way, but I think when you're trying to answer like off-the-cuff questions, you don't want to say the wrong thing, and you want to make sure you're speaking from your heart so it's better for them to have an interpreter. But I've also seen a lot of international players that can't speak English do commercials,

and the commercials are still fired up. Yeah, because you can do a commercial because it's already like you know what you have to say. Yeah, but when you're practicing lines and stuff, I just feel like it would sound better from an English-speaking player like what he was saying. I mean, your wordplay matters. I mean, look at somebody like Conor McGregor. He gets his ass kicked all the time. But he can talk crazy.

You know what I'm saying? But I will also say this, and this is just being honest, right? When you're playing a sport, a lot of times you look at players that are from your background that are like you, right? That's the reason why, as a kid, I promoted, I, you know, rooted for Mike Tyson, and I rooted for Floyd Mayweather. They are from my area, not my area, but they're black.

So I root for all black people. First of all, you're Dominican. You should be the biggest baseball fan in this room. All I know is, but they're right. They root for you and Ricky Henderson because they were black. Why didn't you root for none of your Dominican brothers? I'm not Dominican. But the truth is, if anybody's really great and amazing at a sport. I'm just telling you what I rooted for as a kid.

Not true, Yee. You're right. I mean, it should be that way, Yee, but it's not that way. That's what it was. Sadly. Like I said yesterday, I was talking about Conor McGregor. I said there used to be a time where the talent used to make you a draw. Correct.

That sadly doesn't make you a draw anymore. Not in this era. It's sad, but it is what it is. Hello, who's this? Hi, it's Angela from Brooklyn. Hey, that's what I'm talking about. Two of us. Good morning.

Shout out to the Mets. Pete Alonzo. Home run derby. Okay. What's your comment? So my comment is the face of baseball has changed over the years where it was predominantly white and Hispanic. Now there are more races getting involved.

Hell, the Mets have a pitcher Marcus Stroman who is a do-rag on pitches. So would Stephen A have something to say about that? Okay. I mean, like I said before, as a kid, I rooted for people that looked like me that I felt came from the place that I came from.

That's who I always rooted for. You should be rooting for baseball even more now. I'm being serious here. Because Dominicans are dominating the sport. As a kid, you never seen black pitchers. So when you seen a black pitcher, all the black people rooted for the black pitcher. I thought you was a catcher.

But I thought y'all was just saying baseball was a white sport and mostly white people watch it. It's mostly a white sport. So when you see a black player, everybody in the black, black people root for that black player. A lot of Japanese people are rooting for these Japanese players. There's nothing wrong with that. Angela, Angela, I think you and a couple other callers really made me understand the problem here. Stephen A. Smith should have just said what it was.

All these old white bigots who love baseball won't support Asian and Latino players, the international players. But he is still responsible for the 10 most watched games of the season. So somebody's watching. He gets busy. Don't get it twisted. He gets busy. He's a superstar. They are watching him. Ratings are down in Major League Baseball though. Even though those might have been the most watched games, ratings are down.

But I really do, I agree with a lot of the callers. A lot of baseball fans are racist. You know what I mean? And making baseball great again is making baseball white again. And I will say this. That's what they want. What I learned about being in America, when you travel to other countries and everybody speaks different languages, we don't do that here.

We act like everybody just got to learn English all the time. Yeah. Well, as you can see on this breakfast clip, our English ain't the best of here either. No bueno. Si. Who? You. Who English ain't good? Say shrimp breakfast clip, our English ain't the best of here either. No bueno. See? Who? You! Who English ain't good?

Say shrimp. He said who English ain't good. I'm from South Carolina. I'm speaking my native tongue. That's not no native tongue. Shrimp, straight, strong. See? Okay.

Angela, you have a good morning. Thank you. I'm out of here. Not you. Angela on the phone. All right. We got rumors on the way? Yes, and we are going to talk about Drake Bell from Drake and Josh.

He got two-year probation for child endangerment charges, and we actually have the audio from their Zoom court session. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. You know, I love when I learn something from this show, man.

What'd you learn? You know, we was talking about Stephen A. this show, man. What'd you learn? You know, we was talking about Stephen A. Smith and his comments about the baseball player last hour. You know, I really learned a lot. Baseball is the oldest sport in America and, you know, like most old systems in America. It's inherently racist. And some fans of baseball are old bigots

who won't support foreign players. And making baseball great again is making baseball white again. So I understand why people were offended. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I get it. And that's why Stephen A. Smith did apologize.

And by the way, I don't know if that's the main reason why people were offended, but that's what I learned. That's what you got from it. Talking to, you know, listeners this morning. All right. Well, let's get to the rumors. Let's go. It's time.

She's spilling the tea This is the Rumor Report With Angela Yee On The Breakfast Club Well August 27th Is the 25th anniversary Of OutKast's ATLien's album

Are y'all excited for that? Come on man That's OutKast God's in the game Dropping the clues bombs For Andre 3000 Big boy damn it And they are celebrating

25 years With a limited edition anniversary bundle that includes a 4LP 12-inch vinyl, a Glow in the Dark 45 from Get On Down Tweets coming August 27th, and you can pre-order

that now. Is there a group who did it better than OutKast? A hip-hop group? Meaning that, you know, not just musically, but even the way that, you know, they, I guess they kind of exited on their own terms. At least Three Stacks did, right? He left on a high note.

Yeah, Three Stacks did. I mean, is there a group that did it better? Outkast has never given us a whack album. Not even a subpar album. What about Lauryn Hill exited on a high note? I mean, I said groups I don't know well she was in the

Fugees yeah but they broke up that's how they did it but they broke up though yeah yeah I don't know I have to think about that one

alright and Pop Smoke's second album title has been announced and it's coming out July 16th it's called Faith by the way so let's make sure

we get ready for that's on Friday that's Friday it's 50 EP in that one I thought he was at one time then I didn't hear his name anymore I'm not sure called Faith, by the way. So let's make sure we get ready for that. That's on Friday, right? That's Friday. Is 50 EP in that one? I thought he was at one time, then I didn't hear his name anymore. I'm not sure.

I just saw that Stephen Victor posted it. Okay. And there's also a trailer that was announced last week, too. I'm nervous about this one. Why? Because you know how posthumous albums are. This is the second... Am I saying that right?

Posthumous? I wanted to say hummus, but I know that wasn't right. Posthumous was not the word, but go ahead. What is the word? I didn't know the word either, that's why I just let you go. Oh, well, Posthumous. I wanted to say hummus, but I know that wasn't right. Posthumous was not the word, but go ahead. What is the word? I didn't know the word either, that's why I just let you go. Oh, well, posthumous.

You know what I mean? Each and every one of these albums usually are. And he already put out one. Does he have enough material for, do they have enough material for a second one? Let's hope so. I mean, the first one was popping, so we don't know how much music he recorded either. That's true. All right, and Mattel has released a Naomi Osaka Barbie doll, and it's it's already sold out by the way i really wanted to get that one too so she posted

i first teamed up with barbie in 2019 and today we're introducing the barbie role model naomi osaka doll i hope every child is reminded that they can be and do anything yeah i would love to get that doll too for my kids all right now let's talk about drake bell from drake and joss he was given two years of probation and a suspended one year jail sentence in the courtroom yesterday in Cleveland. It was actually a Zoom courtroom appearance and the victim has actually testified. So this is how people know what went down it was a um she gave her whole statement on how they met each other and how he was calculating and preyed on her and sexually abused her she said he is a monster and a danger to children here she is my aunt took me to the odeon concert club to watch him perform that night the defendant took me backstage to be alone with him he started kissing me and the night ended and him having me perform oral sex on him twice.

I idolized and looked up to him and he took that and broke it in the most sickening way possible. He is the epitome of evil. I deserved better than to be used for his sick desires and for my suffering to be used for his amusement. Jared Drake Bell is a pedophile and that is his legacy. Now he also spoke during this plea deal. Here's what he said. Your Honor, I just want to say today that I accept this plea because my conduct was wrong. I'm sorry that the victim was harmed in any way, but that was obviously not my intention. I have taken this matter very, very seriously. And again, I just want to apologize to her and anyone else who may have been affected by my actions.

All right. So, like I said, he was given two years of probation and a suspended one-year jail sentence in that courtroom. You can watch the whole thing. It's available online. Now, his lawyer, Ian Friedman, said in a statement that his guilty plea and sentence reflect conduct for which he did accept responsibility, but that the victim's allegations that went beyond that which all parties agreed not only lack supporting evidence, but are contradicted by the facts learned through extensive investigation. As the court made clear, this plea was never about sexual misconduct or sexual relations with any person, let alone a minor. So that's that case.

All right. I'm Angela Yee. And that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, Revolt, we'll see you tomorrow. Everybody else, let's get to the mix. It's The Breakfast Club.
