Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
We need help!
That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series,
The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into
their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

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 shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

Danger. Danger. Danger.
Everybody come to the breakfast club. I call this the hot seat.
Y'all are wild.
Y'all are wild. Can I live? You are out of control. I can't even the hot seat. Y'all are wild. Y'all are wild.
Can I live?
You are out of control.
I can't even deal with you.
Y'all are so petty.
Why are y'all so petty?
The world's most dangerous morning show.
DJ Envy.
Captain of this bitch.
Angela Yee.
I stay in everybody's business, but in a good way.
Charlamagne Tha God.
The ruler rubbing you the wrong way.
The breakfast club.
Made for everybody.
Hold on.
Hello?
Y'all?
Hey.
Oh, just me?
Oh, let's start over then.
Hold on one second.
I don't know what we were doing. You sound so loud in my ears.
Oh, there you go, Yee.
All right.
Okay.
Come on, Envy.
Hit it.
Good morning, USA. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, all, yes, being older is something that I aspire to be.
I want to be 90, 100 years old.
I want to see my kids do everything.
Me too.
Inshallah, that'll happen.
Now, my dad, now one thing with being old is sometimes old people are stubborn.
And I'm sure my dad is listening right now.
You are a stubborn old man, dad.
Why he's calling you a daddy stubborn?
Stop calling him that.
No.
You got to give us context.
I'm going to tell you.
So I tell my dad.
Now, when I go to the store, I get things for numerous people.
I get things for my mother and father.
I get stuff for my mother-in-law.
So when I go to the store and I get a case of water, I get three cases to make sure everybody's good.
I get three cases of toilet paper.
I make sure they're all good, right?
Call my parents every day just to check them on them.
Y'all good?
You need anything?
No.
He calls me this morning about five minutes ago.
Like, hey, you never you never guess where I'm at.
I'm like, well, where are you home? He goes, no, stop and shop.
I'm like, what the hell are you doing at stop and shop?
He says, well, they open up an hour early for, you know, senior citizen, old people like me.
I'm like, well, what do you need? Like, what do you need?
I tell you, I will bring anything to you. Do not leave the damn house. Stay home.
You probably can't. You can't go an hour early.
Exactly.
He's a senior citizen.
He's taking advantage.
It's just like being a senior citizen at IHOP
when you take advantage of the discount on the pancakes.
He's taking advantage of the hour.
Old people can't get coronavirus.
There's other older people in the store with him.
I tell you, stay home.
I will bring it to you.
Do not leave the house.
You're out and about,
and yes, somebody else can have it in their store.
You don't leave that man alone. That man, how old
is he? Seventy-something. I was about to say 90.
He's 70-something years old. That man doesn't live through it all.
Leave that man. Let your daddy live his life,
goddammit. Yeah, they out there going to the store. They got
their extra hour in, so they might as well
take advantage of it. No! No! No!
No! No! Stay home! You up here?
You ain't home. You right. So shut up.
I'm dumb. Yeah, okay, well.
That's what being 70 years old and having all that experience is about, having wisdom.
Okay?
He know exactly what he's doing.
Goodness gracious, Dad.
Go home, man.
I will bring whatever you need.
I will bring.
Then I say, well, what do you want?
You might want to ask him to get you some stuff.
You got that extra hour.
Yo, I asked him.
I said, what do you need?
Right?
Eddie's listening because I was on speakerphone.
I go, Dad, what do you need?
He goes, I'm just out here looking.
Maybe he just wanted to get out the house. He said, I'm just out here looking. Maybe he just wanted to get out the house.
He said, I'm just out here looking.
What are you looking for?
Let that man live his life.
Sadly, this is the new normal that we may have to deal with.
Goodness gracious, Dad.
Well, can you ask your dad to pick me up some Smart Puffs?
No.
My mom is there, too.
I know he's listening.
I know he's listening.
Goodness gracious, Mom and Dad.
This is the new normal we might have to live with.
We might have to live in a world where, you know what?
Older people go to the store an hour before everybody else.
And, you know, the threat of coronavirus is always around us for the foreseeable future.
Especially because I got anxiety.
So, you know, every time I get a headache or my arm hurt, I'll be like, uh-oh, uh-oh.
I start looking.
I must have taken my temperature yesterday six times.
You just like putting that thing up your butt.
It's not in my butt.
I swipe it on my forehead, you ass.
I'm not going to lie.
I did ask my wife to take my temperature last night, though.
But the thermometer was in my kid's room, so she couldn't go in there to get it because
she didn't want to wake the kids up.
But I did.
And it's not like I felt sick or nothing.
I was just like, because I was even thinking about that.
I was thinking about everybody who has tested positive, right?
And they say they didn't feel the symptoms.
I wonder if you can have a fever.
That would be a symptom, though, right?
So it wouldn't even matter.
Even if you do check your temperature and it's fine, you can still have it.
I was also thinking, I was like, you know what?
Charlamagne, Eddie, and me, probably if one of us get it, we all got it.
I just want to tell you.
Oh, absolutely.
And Dan and Taylor, all you guys out there.
Yeah.
We'll be fine.
Yeah.
I believe.
I believe we'll be fine.
We'll be fine.
The truth to the matter is. We'll be fine. Because that's the truth to the believe it. It will be fine. It will be fine. The truth to the matter is.
It will be fine.
Because that's the truth to the matter.
You got to lean into the uncertainty of it all.
You know, if you don't get it, great.
If you do get it, what you going to do?
What are you going to do?
What you going to do?
Still got to live your life, right?
Yeah.
All right.
Just be happy that you're a certain age and you don't have any previous medical conditions.
Correct.
And your body can fight it off.
That's right.
I've been taking MAD, vitamin C and zinc and vitamin D too previous medical conditions and your body can fight it off. That's right. I've been taking Mad Vitamin C and Zinc and Vitamin D too.
I know you've been getting that Vitamin D
my brother. See there you go.
When you told us how you came in the back door yesterday I said
okay Envy getting that Vitamin D up.
Oh my goodness. I understand brother. Let's get the show
cracking. It's Thursday. Throwback
Thursday. Drew Hill will be joining us
this morning. Drew Hill will be here this morning.
Yes we'll kick it with Drew Hill. Legendary. That's right. That'll be a nice little mini mix for this morning. Drew Hill will be here this morning. Drew Hill. Yes, we'll kick it with Drew Hill.
Legendary.
That's right.
That'll be a nice little mini mix for this morning.
And I'm going to tell you something else.
For everybody out there that's feeling away, I was driving in this morning and I saw a
very, very, very bad accident.
So, you know, in light of everything that's happening in the world, it's still people
out here who having it worse.
Right.
Okay?
Right.
Be careful out there.
The roads, I know on the East Coast, the weather's nasty for a little bit this morning.
So just be careful.
Give yourself a little extra time if you have to go to work.
If you don't have to, don't leave the crib, please.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Front page news.
What are we talking?
What are we talking?
What do we start with you?
Well, of course, coronavirus.
But you know, the first day of spring is upon us also.
And we'll tell you what you can look forward to.
Today is the first day.
It is the first day of spring.
Wow.
Well, happy spring. Happy fake spring. Yeah, there first day. It is the first day of spring. Wow. Well, happy spring.
Happy fake spring.
Yeah, there you go.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Whoa.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Where we starting, Yee?
Well, you know, it is the first day of spring, but they are saying there's going to be a
winter storm, and there'll be snow across the United States on that first day of spring.
That's good.
Doesn't snow kill germs?
No.
They said they actually said the heat will be better.
Yeah, it was warmer.
OK.
Supposed to be 70 degrees on the East Coast Friday.
Tomorrow, I mean, Saturday.
Yeah.
So, well, tomorrow's Friday.
That's what I mean.
Tomorrow, Friday.
OK.
That's crazy that the heat kills more germs because it feels like it's more germy when it's hot out.
Or maybe it's just people being musty.
I think it's also the sun with the vitamins you get from the sun also makes you healthier.
Yes, indeed.
As well.
So, all right.
Now let's talk about the Family First Act.
Nancy Pelosi is describing what will happen with the Family First Act in regards to coronavirus. This legislation facilitates free coronavirus testing for everyone who needs a test,
including the uninsured.
To put families first, our legislation secures paid leave with two weeks of paid sick leave
and family and medical leave for those affected by the virus.
And for those who lose their jobs, we are strengthening unemployment insurance,
a critical step to protect workers' economic security. Putting families first,
our legislation protects our children, and particularly the tens of millions of little
children who rely on the free or reduced price lunch they receive at school.
All right, so under their revised bill, they said payments would be capped at $511 a day.
Originally, they were trying to get people their full pay, but because there's limited federal reimbursement, they can't do that amount.
And workers with family members affected by coronavirus and people whose children's schools have closed will still get up to two-thirds of their pay.
Now, Donald Trump also talked about suspending evictions and foreclosures. Today, I'm also announcing that
the Department of Housing and Urban Development
is providing immediate relief to renters
and homeowners by suspending
all foreclosures and evictions
until the end of April. So, we're
working very closely with Dr.
Ben Carson and everybody from HUD.
Listen, man, drop on the clues
bombs for them, okay? Because it's good to see
that Republicans and Democrats can work together to do what's right for the American people.
That's a nice bipartisan bill that will help Americans that need it.
And that's how government is supposed to work. Taxpayers getting something for their tax dollars.
That's why we got to demand more of our goddamn government.
All right. In addition, Donald Trump keeps on calling the coronavirus the Chinese virus.
And here's his explanation. Why do you keep calling this the Chinese virus?
Why do you keep using this? It's not racist at all.
No, not at all. It comes from China. I want to be accurate.
As you know, China tried to say that it was caused by American soldiers.
It's not going to happen. Listen, I understand. but I still want to know why nobody ever asked that question
when it comes to the West Nile virus or Ebola or Zika, all of those things that are from Africa.
Nobody ever asked that question then?
I think people did ask those questions at that time also.
They definitely did.
I've never remembered that.
Yeah, the problem is that people are getting attacked now just because they're Asian.
People don't know if you're a Chinese, Chinese-American,
and it looks like he's trying to scapegoat a certain group of people.
Africans used to get stigmatized, too.
They still get stigmatized.
Do you think he was trying to scapegoat,
or do you think because the Chinese government said it started from Americans
and American soldiers, he's just trying to be clear that it didn't start from Americans?
So you want to rename the virus that to make people feel better?
I don't know why he's doing it, but that's what
it seems like he's doing it. He told you why. He said because it originated in
China. But that's not what it's called. He's just
renaming it. Right?
I mean, that's not what it's called.
He's just trying to change the name of it,
and then, you know, and I think people are
having issues with people getting attacked for no
reason just because they're Asian. And that is
totally wrong, but my point will stand.
I don't understand why people don't have that same energy
when it comes to the West Nile virus, Ebola, and Zika
because that's just as racist,
right? And that puts a stigma on them people.
You definitely can't have that same energy.
You definitely can't have that same energy. But they don't,
is what I'm saying. Alright, well that is your
front page news. Get it off your chest.

Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country?
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

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.

Hello, who's this?
Hi, my name is Sharon. How are you?
Hey, Sharon, get it off your chest.
Well, I found out that the coronavirus could be killed by heat.
And if you stay in a sauna for like 15 minutes, it'll start destroying and breaking it down.
And then you go back in another hour later,
stay in a little longer, and you'll
destroy it completely.
Now who told you that? What YouTube
channel told you that?
Well, you know,
if you look at, I found it on Instagram.
You found that on Instagram?
Come on now. Alright, Dr. Sharon,
thank you so much. Alright, well,
I'm not a doctor, but try it out.
No, I ain't going to front.
If I get it, I'm definitely going to try it out.
I mean, I like the sauna anyway.
I go sit in the sauna just because it helps me.
I like to sweat, so.

But, you know, this might sound crazy, but last night I had a dream.
I was with Charlamagne, DJ Envy at the All White Party.
What All White Party?
You had a dream?
Yeah.
Y'all still coming to that?
With the All White Party.
I don't know nothing about no All White Party.

And I'm staying in my ass.
My ass is staying at the crib, bro.
I hear that.
And you know, I don't party.
I don't be out like that.
Yeah, that's a good thing, man.
But what is this all-white party anyway?
It's out here in Columbia, South Carolina.
Oh, Chris's party.
Chris's all-white party.
Oh, Chris having an all-white party?
Yeah, I seen a flyer that Chris posted. No, I will not be there. Oh, man. Oh, man, you shouldn Chris's all-white party. Oh, Chris having an all-white party? Yeah, I seen a flyer at Chris's party.

Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?

Get it off your chest, bro.
Hey, first of all, good morning.
Good morning, Ashley.
Charlamagne. Good morning. Good morning, bro. What's up, KG? Get it off your chest, bro. Hey, first of all, good morning. Good morning, Ashley Yee, Charlamagne.
Good morning.
Good morning, bro.
What's up, King?
Hey, Fran.
I just wanted to speak on real quick about what y'all were just talking about before the break.
As far as Donald Trump calling it the Chinese virus.
I'm seeing this pattern of black people.
I'm black included.
People on Twitter undermining people's offenses or racial slurs targeted towards other people just because we get targeted.
We get oppressed for so long.
But I feel like that's not right to undermine other people that are also getting offended.
Like, if they're offended, then they're offended.
It's still a problem.
Racism is racism.
That's a fact.
But I'm not undermining it.
I'm just asking a simple question because they've named three diseases after, you know, things in Africa.
And I haven't heard nobody say nothing about it. Well, they definitely were when it was going on. Because they've named three diseases after, you know, things in Africa.
And I haven't heard nobody say nothing about it.
Well, they definitely were.
When it was going on, they definitely were.
When it was big and positive. Yeah, people did say things about it.
I missed all of that.
Everybody was talking about, oh, don't stand next to him.
He got Ebola and all that shit.
Like, they were doing, oh, I apologize.
But they were definitely doing that.
I didn't know Ebola was a place.
Ebola is a river in the Congo.
Yeah.
But thank you, bro.
Other than that, I'm blessed. I hope everybody has a great day, a great weekend. Everybody Congo. But thank you, bro. Other than that, I'm blessed.
I hope everybody has a great day, a great weekend.
Everybody stay safe.
All right, bro.
That's all I got.
I agree.
Let's stop hating on people just because of their ethnicity, period.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's up, breakfast hub in Philly.
I called y'all probably a few weeks ago.
A truck driver from Dollar Street.
What's up with you, bro?
Get it off your chest.
What's happening?
Man, I just want to say, like, I feel like I, the truck driver from Dollar Tree. What's up with you, bro? Get it off your chest. What's happening? Man, I just want to say,
like, I feel like,
I'm a, you know,
like I said,
I'm a truck driver
and I feel like
we at a higher risk,
you know?
Like, we got to deliver
all these products
to people
and these products
are coming from everywhere
and, you know,
we probably going to be
the last thing
that shut down
if there is a shutdown
because, you know,
we got to get everything
to the stores.
So I feel like it's just,
you know,
we just had a bigger risk.
And another thing I want to say is you and Charlamagne.
Good morning, Charlamagne.
Peace, K.
Good morning.
Y'all had mentioned on the episode before,
Evie, you had said that you was going to buy more ammo.
And that's what I'm thinking, too.
Like, I live in a gun shop right now.
What if, you know, we don't know how long we're going to be on lockdown.
So, like, what if people do start acting crazy and s*** like that, you know?
I already bought some more.
I'm 2A all day, baby.
I believe in my right to bear arms.
Yeah, so, yeah, I think that is a good suggestion or idea.
Yes, sir.
I mean, I got everything.
I got ammo.
I got food.
I got toilet paper.
I got paper towels.
I got everything just in case.
I got five kids to protect and a wife.
So, yes.
That's what guns are for.
Guns are for hunting and guns are for protection.
True, true, true.
All right, y'all.
Have a good one.
Stay clean out here.
All right, man.
Hello, who's this?
What's up?
This is James from Indianapolis.
How's it going, Breast Club?
What's up, James?
Get it off your chest, bro.
I just want to say I'm blessed, black, and highly favored.
There you go.
I want to tell everybody to keep y'all head up around this time.
I know this might be a grim time, but trouble don't last always, man.
It's just temporary.
I'm going to get through this.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I went to therapy last week, and I was on the phone with my spiritual advisor last night.
Thank God, by the way, for therapists and spiritual advisors who you can get on the phone.
I'm relatively calm through all of this.
My anxiety is not through the roof about this anyway.
I feel a strange sense of peace, to be honest with you.
Yeah, I'm okay.
I'm actually happy to be home with the family and kids.
Sometimes, I mean, God tells you when you just got to sit your ass down.
Absolutely.
He might be telling us, sit your ass down, man.
And I think that, like I keep saying, you just got to lean into the uncertainty of it all.
And I'm fine with not knowing what's around the corner.
Like, you know, because at times like this, you got to remember your serenity prayer.
Everybody out there knows the serenity prayer.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
You got to be wise enough to know in this situation, there's nothing you can do about it.
Okay?
Nothing.
You don't control any of this.
Envy, we do have a decision to make.
What's that?
Well, you know, we do have the juice bar in Brooklyn,
and it has been a lot of people coming there just to get their immune systems up and going.
But how long do we keep it open?
I mean, that's a tough one because people are coming in to get, you know, their juices,
their fresh juice.
A lot of times they can't get it.
We have a lot of stock.
So that is a tough one.
People are coming to get their immune shots. They're coming have a lot of stock. So that is a tough one. People are coming to get their immune
shots. They're coming to get their, you know,
that is a tough one. I mean.
Yeah, because it is a great service for the neighborhood.
For people that are coming in and getting their
fruits and their revived juices
and their vitamin C shots and their wheatgrass
shots and their ginger shots and
turmeric and all of that. But
the safety. I'll be honest
with you though. I think after today I think the governor might shut it down for us, but we'll see.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, we'll be talking about when they see us, find out who is suing Ava DuVernay over that series.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed,
a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind
of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of
water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of
Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.

Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
So Linda Fairstein is now suing Netflix and Ava DuVernay
over how she was portrayed in When They See Us.
She was the one who helped prosecute the five, the Central Park five, the five young men
who did not commit this crime of raping this jogger.
So she said she objects to nearly every single aspect of the case as it's portrayed in the
series.
She denies taking any of the following actions, which includes unlawfully interrogating unaccompanied
minors,
calling for a roundup of young black thugs, manipulating the timeline to pin the joggers
rape on the Central Park Five, and referring to people of color as animals, directing NYPD
detectives to coerce confessions, and suppressing DNA evidence. So she's saying all of that is
untrue, and it's affected her and her work moving forward. So she's suing for that and for defamation.
She wants a public apology.
She wants those scenes removed that she says are false.
And she wants a disclaimer added that the series is a dramatization
and not a true story.
And she wants damages as well.
Well, we saw the real footage of those coerced confessions.
So we know that happened.
And just because Linda doesn't remember it the way it was portrayed,
it happened. Your bias and your
prejudice caused those brothers to go to jail for a crime
they didn't commit. That actually happened, so knock it off.
Feels like she doesn't think she did anything
wrong and she has no remorse.
We can sue anybody for anything, so
let the lawsuit happen. I'm sure
she'll lose. Yeah, she'll definitely lose.
Alright.
Now Floyd Mayweather is most likely calling off his fight plans for 2020.
He was supposed to be doing two fights, one involving the UFC, another one against an established, respected boxer.
But unfortunately, he's had a lot of terrible things happen as of late.
Josie Harris, who is his ex and mother of three of his children, passed away.
And his uncle, Roger Mayweather, also died all within the span of a week.
So that is the last thing on his mind right now
is having to fight.
Yeah, emotionally, he's not in no shape to fight.
And I didn't even know those fights were happening.
That was that.
He said he was going to fight twice.
He didn't necessarily announce it,
but he definitely said he was going to fight.
Yeah, but it was quiet for those fights.
I remember he announced them on Instagram,
but it was quiet.
Nobody cared.
I don't think he said who it was.
He didn't announce opponents yet.
He did.
He posted both of them.
He posted both of the people he was fighting.
All right.
The NBA and the NFL fans are very excited because you get free league and game pass access right now.
The NBA offered free access to the NBA League Pass while the league is suspended.
So they want to make sure you can sit at home and watch that and get to see full length and
condensed replays of all games from the 2019 to 2020 season. And you can get that on the official
NBA site or the NBA app. The NFL has also offered free access to the NFL Game Pass that's available
to fans in the U.S. and internationally. So that'll be free of charge until May
31st. And there'll be game replays
from 2009 to 2019,
condensed 45-minute
game replays and other content as well.
So you guys can watch.
Speaking of the NBA,
when that Michael Jordan-Chicago Bulls documentary
dropping? Because didn't the commercial say June,
but now it keeps saying coming soon.
So I'm thinking that the season is over that they
might move it up.
They need to. I think so.
I need that in my life.
Alright now Erykah Badu in the meantime
since we're all sitting at home is doing a live
concert series. She did a live concert
series from her bedroom.
So here's what she told her followers.
The quarantine
concert series live from my bedroom.
We'll be performing right here live this weekend.
Live stream, $1 to get in.
We got to keep moving, y'all.
We're a community of artists who are, our survival depends on performing.
I'll be right there with my candles lit and my sage burning. God damn it.
So that starts on March 21st.
And you get to actually choose the songs that you'll perform.
There's going to be a poll so you can vote and do all of that.
Oh, that's Saturday.
Is she charging or no?
A dollar.
A dollar?
A dollar.
Listen, the wife and I will definitely be tuned into that.
My wife is a huge Erykah Badu fan.
So am I.
So that'll be a dope thing to do laid up in the bed watching at home.
Watching home concerts. Mm-hmm. All right. And soon you'll be a dope thing to do, laid up in the bed, watching at home, watching home concerts.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
And soon you'll be able to watch Tom Brady play for the Buccaneers.
He decided to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers because of his son, partly, according to page six.
They said the other teams are farther away from his son's home.
So he chose that team to stay closer to his kid.
It was between three teams, and that's why
he chose the Buccaneers, and he'll
likely announce it today or tomorrow.
Did those numbers come out? I saw
something. He said he got $30 million a year.
That's what they said. I can't be mad at that.
You know what I mean? I didn't know he got that much money.
If that's the number.
If it is.
Alright, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
Alright, thank you, Ms. Yee.
Front page news next, what are we talking about?
What have we been talking about?
Coronavirus.
Absolutely.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Life comes at you so goddamn fast.
Why?
Because I said, oh, it's going to be 81 degrees tomorrow.
I'm going to put something on the grill.
And then you go, yeah, but it's going to be raining.
It's going to be raining.
So it's just like just that fast when I thought the temperature was going to be 81.
I was like, oh!
Turn the grill on. I was like, turn the grill on. Oh, it's going to be raining. It's going to be raining. So it's just like just that fast when I thought the temperature was going to be 81, I was like, oh! Turn the grill on.
Turn the grill on.
Oh, it's going to be raining.
Ah.
All right.
That's not reality.
Well, let's get in some front page news.
Where we starting, Yee?
Well, let's start with coronavirus.
They said that this pandemic could last up to 18 months or longer now and include multiple waves of illness.
They also are saying that hospitals have sounded the alarm.
There's supplies vanishing as the outbreak has no signs of slowing down in the United States.
In just 24 hours, cases went up by more than 40%.
Of course, that's not unexpected because there's a lot more tests available now.
So that's why we're seeing a lot more cases now because a lot more people are being tested.
The number of cases, as I said, for adults age 65 and older,
80% of coronavirus-related deaths in the U.S. occurred in adults who are over 65.
Just a FYI.
That's a huge problem, the hospitals being overwhelmed, man.
Because, I mean, not only are you going to have people going in there for coronavirus.
I was hearing that they were pushing back surgeries this week.
People who was getting surgery for cancer and things like that.
That was getting pushed back.
What if your kid breaks their arm?
What if somebody has a heart attack?
The hospital can definitely be overwhelmed.
I'm sure if it's an emergency, like your kid breaking an arm
or something bleeding, they'll tend to it.
But everything else, they got to push back.
They need more beds.
I hope so.
All right, now Donald Trump just signed yesterday
the coronavirus relief package that has some provisions
also for a lot of different things.
Here's Nancy Pelosi speaking
on it. This legislation facilitates free coronavirus testing for everyone who needs a test,
including the uninsured. To put families first, our legislation secures paid leave with two weeks
of paid sick leave and family and medical leave for those affected by the virus. And for those
who lose their jobs, we are strengthening unemployment insurance,
a critical step to protect workers' economic security.
Putting families first, our legislation protects our children,
and particularly the tens of millions of little children
who rely on the free or reduced-price lunch they receive at school.
Yeah, listen, it's good to see that Republicans and Democrats can work together
to do what's right for the American people
because, you know, that's a nice bipartisan bill
that will help Americans that need it
because you can't have a party at war,
two parties at war with each other,
not working with each other
because all that does is hurt us.
Now, according to Donald Trump,
the Department of Housing and Urban Development
is providing relief to renters and homeowners.
They're suspending all foreclosures and evictions
until the end of April.
So you have some time for people who are concerned about that.
But, you know, come April,
we got to figure out what's also going to happen.
But I guess as long as people are still getting some type of income,
you know, we'll see what happens with that.
Now, a lot of people are also wondering,
why is it that it seems that celebrities and athletes
are having access to these coronavirus tests
more than the average person,
even if you have symptoms.
And here's how Donald Trump responded to that.
How are non-symptomatic professional athletes getting tests while others are waiting in line and can't get them?
Do the well-connected go to the front of the line?
Well, you'd have to ask them that question.
Perhaps that's been the story of life.
That does happen on occasion. and I've noticed where some people
have been tested fairly
quickly. We inherited a very obsolete
system. Trump basically said some people
are VIP and some people aren't. That's life.
It's the truth. It's effed up, but it's the truth.
That's a great question because I asked that question
on this radio about three days ago.
All the celebs, the athletes, the big time
record executives getting tested, but the general public
is not. How does that work?
I don't know.
All right.
Now, Nike and Phil Knight has committed more than $15 million in aid for coronavirus.
So they're committing that money for the response for coronavirus.
And another issue is in U.S. jails.
There's a lot of heightened concern about an unprepared system as the first known cases of coronavirus in the U.S. federal correctional system emerged yesterday.
So there's some issues with that, too.
Now what's going to happen?
They said that the NBA hired a private lab.
So that's how they're doing.
They hired their own private labs.
So what about the record executives like Irving Azoff and all of them people like that?
I don't know.
They hired private people, too?
They might have.
They might have. They might have.
Just like, you know,
when,
you remember when the fires
were burning out in LA
and Kanye hired
his own private fire department
just to protect his house?
You know the house?
I mean, you got money,
you can do things like that.
The privileged have their privileges.
You're right.
You're absolutely right.
And about the prison thing,
it's easier to quarantine
people in prison, right?
It is.
I would think so.
But they said
they're letting people go.
Did I hear Bloomberg was donating money to Africa this time?
Was that a lie?
$40 million, I think, to help stop the spread of it in Africa or something like that.
Don't get me in a line.
I just saw the headline briefly.
Well, in New York City, they are going to begin releasing inmates because of the coronavirus outbreak. According to the mayor, Bill de Blasio,
he plans to release vulnerable inmates from city jails to prevent the spread of coronavirus pandemic
into local lockups.
So he said within the next 48 hours,
they'll identify any inmates who need to be brought out
because of their own health conditions
or pre-existing conditions as well.
Yes.
And you're right.
That's Bloomberg.
He's working with the World Health Organization
and he pledged $40 million to fight coronavirus in Africa and around the world.
All right.
Well, that is your Front Page News.
Now, when we come back, it's Throwback Thursday.
It is Throwback Thursday.
Drew Hill will be joining us.
And I think it's very important to note and let people know that a lot of these interviews that we're playing are definitely pre-recorded.
Nobody is coming in this week.
I saw somebody highly upset
saying that we weren't
practicing social distancing.
Yes.
Okay, trust me.
I would not be standing
next to no goddamn Drew Hill
at a time like this.
Right, yeah.
They actually came last week
and a lot of these artists
came last week.
Everybody came last week.
Nobody has been here this week.
Just me and Shelly, man.
And Eddie.
And Eddie. The guy that y'all keep clown Just me and Shalaman. And Eddie. And Eddie.
The guy that y'all keep clowning over and over and over.
Y'all be making the funniest memes at Eddie, bro.
Yeah, they do.
All right.
But, Drew Hill, when we come back, it's Throwback Thursday.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Yo, where I want to be?
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Shalaman the guy. We are The right back. is going on here. What the hell? The schedule says Drew Hill is here and I see two brothers
I never met before
named Smoke and Black.
Right, right.
Well,
this is,
like you said,
Envy,
Drew Hill season five.
We have become
the group that we,
that I never thought
we would be.
The group that breaks up
and here we are.
This is Black.
This is Smoke originally from the group Player.
Okay.
We were under the same label, Def Jam.
And we were on tour way back then.
We always been, you know, like brothers.
And when the last time we saw y'all, you know, we was, you know,
I thought we was a tight-knit unit.
Y'all came up here together.
All y'all came up here together, right?
Yeah.
Well, y'all, they wasn't here yet.
No, they wasn't here.
It was the real.
Because Jazz was still here.
No, we had a new guy.
Yeah, you did.
And replacing Woody, right?
Right, right.
Can we say this right now?
Woody asked me this personally.
I spoke to Woody for like an hour and some change the other day.
He don't want to have anything to do with Drew Hill.
Yeah.
Okay.
He wants us to keep our names out of his mouth, all of that.
He don't want to have.
Was this an aggressive conversation?
Kind of, sort of, yeah.
I think it was aggressive.
It wasn't keep my fucking name
out your mouth.
Something like that.
No, you know,
he's real spiritual.
Keep my goddamn name
out your mouth.
That's exactly what he said.
No, but he said,
yo, and I was like,
dude, you know,
I understand
because he wanted me
to stop saying that I did my solo project because he left the group.
And I was like, yo, that's facts.
That's the truth.
When I did my solo album, it was out of necessity.
It was after you left the group.
And that's true.
That's what I've been saying from day one.
The truth don't change.
Right.
Now, why he left the group changed a couple times.
I'm not, he ain't here to defend himself, so I'm not going to say what was true.
Yeah, we definitely didn't keep his name out of it.
No, no, no.
Let's continue.
No, no, because I want to say the whole story now.
So we don't have to say no more.
Should we give him a code name after going forward?
Nah.
Woody left the group 20 years ago.
He ain't never coming back.
He don't ever want to come back.
And he hates the fact that he was
even in the group and everything
that came with it.
The money too?
He was like, get this platinum plaque
off my face. I said silver
platter, not platinum platter.
So he won't be in the movie?
Oh, no.
Well, they got to get people
to reenact this for the movie.
I mean, he's not going
to participate in doing
the biopic or...
Well, him or Jazz
haven't signed the contract yet.
Wow.
What did Jazz...
And that was another one.
We asked Jazz to come back.
What was it, Kevin?
Like last week?
Two weeks ago,
we asked Jazz to come back
and he's been gone
for like two years and that was how
Smokin' Black ended up coming
to the group because when we were
singing it was difficult
for me to do what I was doing on stage
and pick up Jazz's notes and everything
so Nokia
ended up calling Smokin' Black
they ended up you know picking up the slack
for Jazz and so when whatever went down with Note ended up calling Smokin' Black. They ended up, you know, picking up the slack for jazz.
And so,
when whatever went down with Note...
So what happened
with jazz?
He just didn't want
to come back anymore?
Jazz tired of being
called the fat one.
That's what jazz
tired of.
Jazz is tired of
motherfuckers saying
Drew Hill,
Cisco,
Nokia,
the fat one.
He tired of that shit.
I don't blame him.
I probably do jazz
more than you do.
Jazz hit me all the time
about real estate.
All the time.
Jazz is heavy
into real estate.
Is he? Yeah, absolutely. You know that? That's news do. Jazz hit me all the time about real estate. All the time. Jazz is heavy into real estate. Is he?
Yeah, absolutely.
You know that?
Uh-uh.
News to me.
No, all the time.
Hit me all about deals.
And maybe that's why he don't want to see you no more.
All the time.
I don't know.
But when he asked us to, I mean, when we asked him to come back, after being gone for two
years, it was like, we was like, okay, look, if you're going to come back, we need you to sign like a temporary contract.
So we know you at least going to get on the plane before we just give you this money.
And instead of signing the contract, he had a contract of his own.
So he's basically like, you know, showed up after two years with an empty bag, like put it in here.
And I'm like, come on, man.
That's not good business. I can't
do that. So you own the name Drew Hill?
Currently,
me and Kevin owns
it. And Kevin
Peck. And Nokia
is still an owner
of the name Drew Hill.
Alright, we got more with Drew Hill when we come back.
Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy and Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Drew Hill.
What's up with Nokia?
Yeah, what's up with Nokia?
You ain't tell us what happened to him.
Did he get voted off the island too, Cisco?
Hold on.
Hold on.
I just got something to do.
Cisco, it might be you, sir.
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.
Let's be clear.
I feel like a survivor's telling the story.
What's going on?
I need to hear from another guy.
Let's be clear.
Every person that left Drew Hill left Drew Hill.
We didn't kick.
We only let one member go.
The original members of the group left on their own volition.
And, you know, I can only, the best way to say it is this.
I feel as if the reason why the guys left is because the ultimatums that was given for them to stay in the group was more focused on things that was personal to them.
Whereas anytime I've done anything outside of the group, it never affected the group in a negative way.
And anytime I'm with the group, like, for instance, I didn't want to sing in my bed.
Why not?
It was like talking about somebody sleeping in my bed.
Like, I didn't want to, you know what I mean?
I felt like, you know.
I thought that was the whole point.
It was about a song about infidelity, right?
But, I mean, dude, it was like, I didn't want to, it didn't sound enough like Jodeci,
for one, and I was doing my best Jodeci
impression, would tell me.
And then it was like, you know,
nobody was sleeping in my bed that I knew of,
so I wasn't really, I didn't
want to sing. You couldn't relate to it. I couldn't.
I couldn't, but. Dope record, though.
Well, you know,
a lot of people sang that record, too.
112, I heard, sang it.
Jagged Edge sang it.
I believe it's a version with Usher on it.
But it never clicked.
And, you know, the group said they wanted to sing the record.
So, Squad First, that's how I rock.
So, we sang the song.
It ended up being a hit.
And the remix.
Yeah, I did the remix.
Remix five. The So So Def remix. Yeah, I did the remix. Remix 5. The So So Deaf
remix. Yeah, I didn't get paid for that.
That was fun.
JD didn't pay you for that one? Well, I mean,
because you don't get paid for arrangement, which I learned
later. And that was
the other thing, man.
Because, I'm going to bring Woody
up again. Woody,
because he... He gave you instructions. Woody already told
you what not to do. Say sycamore tree
or something.
What are you doing?
Sycamore tree.
Alright, well, I have to say
jazz. Say flaccid instead of Woody.
He's stupid.
He's stupid, man.
Woody right now gonna get you.
He is. He is.
He gonna pray on you.
Yo, but he, well, no, let's say like that.
Like basically a lot of the group members felt as if somebody had put like money and resources behind me with my solo project.
And I want to clear this up once and for all so everybody knows.
When we were on Def Jam,
Def Jam was...
We had just got on Def Jam,
and hip-hop was, like, taboo.
Like, a lot of the industry felt like it was a fad,
like it wasn't going to stay around.
So when they had Drew Hill,
us and Def Jam had history.
We're making money. So they wanted a new Drew Hill, us and Def Jam had history.
We're making money.
So they wanted a new Drew Hill album.
Unfortunately, when Woody quit the group, it was like when we went on tour,
the crowd started dwindling because it was like, that's not Drew Hill.
Just like when you walked in, you're like, that's not the Drew Hill I know.
We had just did the Wild Wild West.
If you look at the video, you'll see it's four of us in the beginning,
only three of us at the end.
Will Smith said, Cisco, Cisco.
I saw an opportunity.
I was like, yo, we finishing our tour.
A lot of people not coming.
Maybe I should do a solo album.
So everybody was like, whatever.
All right, fine.
Everybody was like, okay, well, we all work on solo projects.
So Will Smith broke up Drew Hill?
Exactly.
Cisco, Cisco.
It wasn't.
No, I just saw the opportunity, and so I was like, I asked the label,
could I do a solo album?
They were not interested.
They wanted to do a Drew Hill album.
So I borrowed some money from our manager, Kevin Peck.
I went, I did my album with Thonesong and all of that on it.
I sold the album back to Def Jam.
I got a bunch of money.
I got Woody some money, Jazz some money,
Noak some money, even Kevin some money off of my deal.
And then I went and did my solo album.
Wow.
So I made an opportunity and made sure everybody ate
but the way that they tell a story
is as if the label
pushed me
as a solo artist. They did not. I
created an opportunity.
Secondly, opportunities were
created for both
both Jazz and Woody who
wanted to do a solo project,
but they, for whatever reason, those opportunities didn't pan out the same way.
And now, 20 years later, it's like, and they wanted Cisco the whole time
and blah, blah, blah.
I'm like, nah, they didn't.
I made an opportunity.
So you have to be able to see the opportunities.
Like I was saying earlier, it was like, you know,
we handed a record career for
Woody
on a platinum platter.
Get that platinum platter off my face.
I said silver platter. You know what I mean?
It's like, you gotta, in this business, especially
in this business, you gotta figure out
how to make it work.
They didn't want my hair blonde. They didn't want no
Cisco album. That's why I got no features
on my album.
Only features, I think it was like Beanie Cebu and that's a Def Jam artist.
It wasn't because they thought it was hot.
They was breaking Beanie on my album.
So at the end of the day, there was no favoritism.
There was no plan for my solo project.
And everybody got paid.
Now niggas got amnesia now
and forgot that it was a bunch of money.
How much you get?
I don't talk numbers, but...
Grab what Nokia?
Nope.
What Nokia is...
He don't want to be around...
You.
Well, maybe.
You keep saying Drew Hill.
I think it's you
He didn't say that
In his interview
In his interview
He said he didn't want to be
Around our manager
Kevin
Okay
Right
And Kevin's been there since
What's Kevin do to him?
Kevin what'd you do Kevin?
What'd you do Kevin?
They don't like that
It's all about this
No
Wait
Wait
Let's be clear
Remember when I said
I borrowed money
For my solo album
From Kevin Right From Kevin When nobody was Messing with me Wait, wait, let's be clear. Remember when I said I borrowed money for my solo album from Kevin?
Right.
From Kevin.
When nobody was messing with me or my album, Kevin loaned me the money.
I did the album with Thonesong and all that on it.
I came back to Kevin and said, yo, I got this fire.
Let's go eat.
Like, put your money to use.
That's smart.
I did it.
Thank you.
Let's go eat.
Kevin said, no.
If I go with you, the guys are going to believe that I love you over them and I love y'all the same.
So I'm going to stay here and tough it out with them.
Can you imagine?
He known us since 14.
He taught me everything I knew to get to the point that I got to.
I own my own masters now.
I was one of the youngest CEOs in the game.
Everybody that's got their own label now,
that was from the business model that I was a part of,
like figuring out how to own your own masters
and have your own label and have your own artists.
And he wasn't even a part of that.
He stayed back with Drew Hill, and now fast forward 20 years later,
and everybody got a problem with whatever it was that they felt like
that he did. And
the problem that I had with Note was
his, the question
is this, what you want to do
is it for
you, the betterment of you
or is it for the betterment of the squad?
And everybody,
if you look at everybody's different collective stories
or separate stories, you'll hear that everything they say is all about them.
When he says that he don't want Kevin to come out on the road,
that puts a lot of pressure on me.
I already got to do a lot on stage.
So now when he go home, the only person that don't smoke or drink,
we like to smoke and drink and party,
so you want me to send the designated driver home and then you're supposed to drive the car?
Like, I can't do that.
That's not good business.
Because now I got to go behind everybody.
So not only do I got to perform, now I got to go behind everybody, make sure the flights, make sure this.
I can't do that.
No, sir.
All right, we got more with Drew Hill when we come back.
Let's get into a Drew Hill mini mix.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, question.
How are people receiving the new members of Drew Hill?
Well, it's all about, at first, it's like, who are those guys?
Because I think they think you jazz sometimes.
Jazz lost weight.
He looks like he's getting a birthday mouth.
So when we first come out, they be like, you know what I mean?
You see like a little bit of resistance.
And then when they find out that it's player,
and then we like sing a little bit of Cheers to You,
then they start to warm up.
But then when we get into those hits
and, you know, it's still sing,
they be like, oh, okay, well, all right,
well, I guess this the new season five.
Well, let's get some history on Player.
Were you guys signed to Jodeci or to Timbaland
or how did that work?
We was, this is Black,
we was initially in the beginning
signed to Devonze at the basement.
Okay, from Jodeci.
Yeah, we met, we groomed ourselves with Missy,
Timbaland, Magoo, Ginuwine, and then after that
we went to Def Jam, signed to Def Jam.
And after that we ended up signing with Blackground,
with Aaliyah.
So you guys did a lot behind the scenes
as far as production,
writing, and all of that.
When Jodeci sounded different
on the third album,
that was them.
Oh, the show
The After Party at the Hotel?
That was them.
And you had something
to do with Pony, too, right?
That's them singing
on the back.
Pony's so anxious.
Aaliyah's music.
Aaliyah's black album.
Anytime you hear
a male voice,
that's them on there.
So y'all got writing credits
on all them songs, too?
Oh, so y'all good then.
Bless.
Yeah.
Y'all still getting
publishing checks and everything.
Now I box money.
Did you guys have any
like thoughts
when Cisco first
asked you to join?
It was Noke.
Noke asked.
Oh, it was Noke
who asked.
Okay.
So what were your thoughts
when you first
got the request?
They left?
Damn.
Did you feel like
automatically it would be
a good idea? He's shaking his head. you feel like automatically it would be a good idea?
He's shaking his head.
Did it feel like
it would be a good idea
or did you feel like
let me think about this?
Was it an automatic yes
or was it a
I'm not sure?
Well, this is Smoke.
I'm a very,
you know,
I got to think.
Sometimes I overthink.
So I definitely had to,
you know,
take a pause for the cause
and say,
hmm, you know,
how could this be?
How could we make this work?
But, I mean, like you said, we've been knowing them for over 20 years.
We're like brothers.
So when it comes to the singing, that's what we do.
That ain't nothing but something to do.
But my only thing that I could come up with, and I told Black and I spoke with Kev,
I spoke with Noga, I spoke with Cisco. I said, the only thing that I am concerned with is I do not want to tank or, you know,
not focus on in some type of way, shape, form, or fashion
player legacy.
I definitely want to keep that intact.
But as long as we do that, super groupie shit,
let's do what we got.
Like when y'all thought Lil Wayne could sing,
that was them.
Shawty wanna die.
But I'm a static major.
God rest his soul.
Question.
Are y'all afraid of this game of musical chairs that Drew Hill is playing?
Like, you scared you'll get voted off the island?
He does never say that.
You keep saying we ain't voting nobody out.
I'm going to tell you, I'm not afraid.
Well, for one, I'm not afraid of getting voted off the island
because there's only one member that got voted off the island.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, you know, very, to me, valid reason why I got voted of the island because there's only one member that got voted out of the island.
To me, valid reason why I got voted out of the island. Everybody else
left by their own choice.
But, I mean,
we brothers, I mean,
it's like this, because I'm not
acting like they ain't brothers. I'm just saying
it's about business.
And we've got a tight
bond and we handle like it needs to be handled. And we've got a tight bond and we handle shit
like it needs to be handled.
When we out on the road,
it's positive,
it's productive.
You know,
the energy is right.
And I mean,
we just do what we gotta do.
I mean,
I try to make sure every day,
even though y'all may not notice
that I'm an asset.
That's just me.
You know,
I'm gonna pick up,
you drop something,
come here,
here it is. I'm just like that. know? I'm going to pick up. You drop something, come here. I didn't hear that.
I'm just like that.
So I want to make sure that everybody's comfortable,
make sure the energy's tight.
And like I told them,
I don't do goofy shit.
I don't like, you know,
in my environment to be goofy.
So we try to keep everything.
You know what I'm just saying?
We try to keep everything
like it's supposed to be.
I think it's simple as this, man.
You got to play your position.
You know what I'm saying?
Everybody can't beat Steph Curry, Steph Curry, or Jordan.
Somebody got to beat Pippen.
Somebody got to beat Draymond.
You know what I'm saying?
So I just play my position.
You know what I'm saying?
That's all I do.
I come to work every day with a smile on my face, a smile on my heart,
blessed to still be able to do what I love to do for over 20 years.
And be compensated for it.
You know, I believe if you play your position,
you show your worth.
Somebody got to rebound the ball.
Everybody can't shoot.
Why not create a new group?
Like TGT the situation or LSG.
Why not create something new?
Because we got all those hits.
People want to hear the hits.
When we show up, as long as it sounds like the hits
they pretty much
they still do it though even when they do the
who is it
I've been asked to be in a couple
different groups
however I feel like if I was the
abandoned Drew Hill that I helped
create then they win
I want it my way
it's like well
why'd you join a group then?
You didn't want to be in the group saying the only way I'm going to come out is if you uncomfortable.
It's like, how is that a group mentality?
Right.
At the end of the day, I turn down a lot of solo things to make sure that the brand, you know, still you know, is still out there.
What's going on with the biopic? So everybody
I would assume has to sign on in order for it
to get done? Nah.
There's ways around that. I mean,
they can say, look, it's a check.
Hey, Jazz, Woody, it's a check
if y'all want to sign on. And if not, then...
Jazz, you better sign off or they get Ruben Studded to play.
It's going to be bad.
He'll be sorry for 2020.
He's f***ed up, man.
What network is it going to be on?
I believe it's TV One.
Yeah, because that's what Unsung is on.
I find it very interesting.
That was a very interesting story that you had to make your own solo album,
fund it yourself, and sell it to Def Jam.
Because I would think that would be a no-brainer for Def Jam to say, let's to make your own solo album, fund it yourself, and sell it to Def Jam because I would think
that would be a no-brainer
for Def Jam to say,
let's put out a Cisco solo album.
They didn't,
they were new to,
Def Jam was new to
the R&B game.
They only knew hip-hop.
They wanted the Drew Hill album.
Well, that was Case,
they had Case and...
Yeah.
Well, and that was, yeah.
Back when we was on Def Jam, man,
we did,
majority of our shows was...
Hip-hop show.
...was with hip rappers.
So we would spend the first,
if we did a 20-minute set, we'd spend the first if we did a 20 minute set we'd spend the first
15 minutes
winning the crowd over
because they came
to see DMX
you know what I'm saying
which prepared me
for where we at now
you know what I'm saying
because you might be
looking for the original
members but
by the middle of the show
you know
I'm a saint
you know
I sang for my heart
so by the end of the show
my job is to win you over
so that's why I come here
you know what I'm saying we would be at shows and doing like meet and greets and people would think by the end of the show, my job is to win you over. So that's why I come here.
Man, we would be at shows and doing like meeting
greats of people.
We'd be both
f***ing young twins.
We could already sign.
Well, let's see how
this mix sound together, man.
Yeah, let's hear something
before we get about it.
Let's hear it.
Walks by me every day
Hair and love are the same
The woman that's stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Well, I hope that I can make you mine
For another man steals your heart
And once there's beauty in mine, I swear we will never be apart.
Okay.
All right, I'm not mad at that.
I wouldn't know.
Drew Hill, ladies and gentlemen.
I wouldn't know the difference.
Drew Hill, it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's time.
She's spilling the tea.
This is the Rumor Report withela yee on the breakfast club now if you haven't had a chance to do this i highly recommend it debbie allen hosted a dance
class on instagram live so i don't know if y'all saw that but uh she's a choreographer as you know
and it was amazing i was actually participating in that did y'all, as you know, and it was amazing. I was actually participating in that.
Did y'all see that?
No.
Somebody should introduce Queen Debbie to TikTok.
Debbie Allen would kill on TikTok.
But she did a whole Instagram live class, and she was just teaching you all her dance moves,
and then they was doing fame and everything.
So you can still see it online, by the way.
You participated in that?
I ain't never seen you dance.
No, I did.
I was doing all the...
It's like a little workout.
When you saw that dance...
I will do a workout in a heartbeat and do a class.
Where can we see this?
Well, you can't see me doing it.
I'm watching her on Instagram Live.
And so I participated.
So you can go on live and do it.
It's fun.
All right.
Also, Chance the Rapper is concerned about the closings and cancellations for movie
theaters and as you know a lot of the movie theater companies had to shut down uh just because
of coronavirus and so they've been releasing their movie titles to streaming services to continue to
make money on these investments according to the nbc universal ceo jeff shell he said universal
pictures has a broad and diverse range of movies,
with 2020 being no exception.
Rather than delaying these films or releasing them
into a challenged distribution landscape,
we wanted to provide an option for people to view these titles
in the home that is both accessible and affordable.
So Chance the Rapper's concerned now that are people going to go back
to the movie theaters after this?
He said, when this whole thing is said and done,
I hope we all start going to the movie theater again. There's
some likelihood that this will be the end of the cinema
and a huge push for studios to go
fully video on demand and streaming.
It's definitely the way of the future.
I just hope we have more time. That's inevitable
though. I mean, somebody came to me with that idea
six, seven years ago. It's almost virtually impossible
to do because no studio is going to give you the rights
to their movies. But yeah, that's
inevitable. Like when a movie comes out on a Friday,
if I can order it at home,
I think that makes sense. Absolutely.
I think so. That's absolutely
inevitable. But there's
also just the experience. And I
realize how movie theaters are so different
now, right? There's a lot more that doesn't
have as much seating, but then they have the experience
of being able to order food and drinks from your seat
and all of that. We got that at the house.
We got food and drinks at the house.
I got cheaper candy.
Yeah, but you know what? You could also
people go out and have bars, go to bars and have
drinks and that's a lot more expensive than being at home.
But what I'm saying
is there's a lot of things we could do at
home, but the experience of going out sometimes
is really nice. So we just
don't want to lose that.
And I've been thinking about that,
because when you think about trying to avoid public places,
just because even with shootings and things like that,
it's like, no, I'm cool with the house.
Yeah, I'm pretty good at that.
If I can get the movie, yeah, I'm good.
I'm right there. I'm good.
Oh, God.
All right.
Well, let's talk about Red Table Talk.
So they did a coronavirus emergency edition of Red Table Talk to talk about everything.
And Jaden Smith was not there. Here's what happened, according to Jada.
Jaden is not here with us today because he is actually being a responsible young person.
He is practicing social distancing. He's been doing a lot of traveling and his main concern
has been about gammy so he has decided to stay indoors and he's actually following
so why the rest of them not listening all of them he's been well i guess he's been traveling more
than they have maybe he feels you know maybe they're all on lockdown together.
So you look at Will Smith Instagram.
He ain't never in America seem like.
No, well, he got enough money where he could just test himself.
I'm sure he got to test himself.
Test himself.
All right.
Well, here is what Will Smith has to say about social distancing and how important it is right now. Imagine our local hospital can handle 40 respiratory patients at one time.
The way the virus is moving and the reason why we need to practice social distancing
and the idea of flattening the curve is if 50 people show up at that hospital at one time to get 40 beds.
Yeah.
Now you have 10 people in critical condition that aren't time to get 40 beds. Yeah. Now you have 10
people in critical condition
that aren't going to get help.
And your mortality rate shoots
through the roof. That's the idea
of overwhelming the system.
Told y'all this last week, but
you know, I'm just Lenard.
Nobody listens to me. We listen to Will Smith.
We say, yes, Will Smith.
Alright, now Little Baby has addressed some rumors.
People were saying that he is abusing drugs and he's on Percocets and all of that.
Part of that is because of the interview he did on The Breakfast Club.
There's a point where he is trying to pour water out of a closed water bottle.
I felt like he was just a little, like, nervous, not wanting to answer questions.
As he said, he hates doing interviews.
And so he just was kind of playing with the water bottle but it turned into a viral situation for him well he
posted i don't take percocets he wants people to know that in addition he has announced that he
has a mixtape that's going to only feature rappers who own lambos Lambos. Drop mid-take on like 60 Day, Lamborghini Boy, and then bust some
all the rap
who got Lamborghinis
features.
I'm putting features
on them.
I think that he should
limit it to the rappers
who don't have payments
that they're making
on their Lamborghini.
If your Lamborghini
is paid for,
you can be featured
on the album.
I think that'll shorten
that list real quick.
All right, well,
I'm Angela Yee.
Wow.
And that is your
rumor report.
What you looking at?
You just gonna cough like that?
A brother can't even
just cough nowadays?
No, you can't cough.
Lord have mercy.
Wipe something over there, man.
Here, here's a Clorox, man.
What am I gonna wipe?
I don't know.
I coughed in my arm.
Just wipe something.
I don't know.
I feel like I should
wipe you down.
I'll take a wipe down.
You know what?
Forget it.
I can pretend you're a nurse.
You have these sick fantasies, bro.
You offered.
Don't offer to boost me.
And then when I say, okay.
You got some sick fantasies.
You offered to wipe me down.
Who are you giving your donkey to, man?
You know, there's a no-lip woman out here.
All right?
Her name is Linda Fairstein.
I call her Linda.
Well, Fairstein.
I call her Linda, not Fairstein.
She needs to come to the front of the congregation.
We'd like to have a word with her.
You remember her, right?
She's the prosecutor who sent us to Central Park Five.
Yep.
Let's talk about her.
All right, we'll get into that next.
Lippless Linda.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
You get donkey of the day.
Yeah, you dumbass.
You get donkey of the day.
Yeah, you dumbass.
You are a donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkey of the Day, huh?
I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes.
They want this man to throw them blows, man.
They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves.
Let's go.
They have to make a judgment on who's going to be on the Donkey of the Day.
They chose you.
To the breakfast club, bitches.
Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Yes, Donkey of the Day for Thursday, March 19th goes to former Manhattan sex crimes prosecutor Linda Farristein.
Now, you know who Linda Farristein is, right?
I call her Linda not Farristein.
If you watched Ava DuVernay's Netflix series When They See Us, she's the white woman with absolutely no lips who oversaw the prosecution team seeking convictions of the five teens arrested for the rape and near fatalfatal beating of jogger Trish Mealy in 1989.
Now, we all know the story of the Central Park Five, right?
If not, quick recap.
Five black and Latino teens, Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusuf Salam, Raymond Santana, and Corey Wise.
We're dropping the clues bombs for all those brothers, okay?
At the time, they were ranging in age from 14 to 16.
They all served sentences that ranged from 6 to 13 years for what then New York City Mayor Ed Koch called the crime of the century.
Yes, it was a very heinous crime, and the perpetrators of that crime should have been behind bars.
But guess what? Those brothers weren't the prosecutors.
And once new DNA evidence was presented and a confession, a whole confession, okay, proved convicted rapist Matias Rees was the true lone culprit.
The charges against the five men were dropped, and they eventually received a $41 million settlement from New York City.
They innocent, period, okay, to everybody but Linda Ferenstein.
Because even though all the evidence says otherwise and the actual perpetrator of the crime has come forward and said it was him and DNA proves it was him. Linda still says no, it's them.
And yesterday, she filed a federal lawsuit
against the director of When They See Us,
Queen Ava DuVernay.
Drop one of Clues bombs for Queen Ava DuVernay.
Damn it.
Come on, man.
Queen Ava DuVernay.
She filed a lawsuit against Ava DuVernay and Netflix.
The carcassity, the unmitigated gall of those
with no melanin will never cease to
amaze me. Linda is suing saying
she was portrayed as a racist.
She's suing saying she was portrayed as an unethical
villain who was determined to jail innocent
children of color at any cost.
In the lawsuit obtained by TMZ,
Linda Knott-Ferstein objects to
nearly every single aspect of
the case as is portrayed in the series
She denies taking any of the following actions like unlawfully
Interrogating unaccompanied minors, even though we saw a video of this calling for a roundup of young black thugs
Manipulating the time to pin the joggers rape on the central park five. She's denying all of that
She's denying referring to people of color as animals. She's denying directing NYPD detectives to coerce confessions.
What's the word?
Coerce.
Coerce.
Confessions.
What did I say?
Coerced.
Okay.
You know what I meant.
Okay.
And suppressing DNA evidence.
Now, it's clear she did these things, especially suppressing the DNA evidence, because it's
the DNA evidence that eventually got them off.
Linda, you know, she says that since when they see us was released,
her career as a prolific crime author has been destroyed.
Her publisher and agents dropped her.
She lost speaking appearances and was forced to resign from the boards of several nonprofit organizations.
Linda, lipless, we don't care.
Okay, how can you fix your lipless mouth to act like you got done wrong when you sent a bunch
of innocent teenagers to prison
for years? The Central Park Five
will be forever traumatized. They can
never get that time back.
And they saw things in that prison that will live with them
and haunt them forever.
They will need therapy for the rest of their lives.
Nothing wrong with that, okay? But still,
they will need therapy for the rest of their lives.
Okay? Not just going willingly, but going because they need it because Nothing wrong with that, okay? But still, they will need therapy for the rest of their lives, okay?
Not just going willingly, but going because they need it because they're traumatized.
While you're out here doing deals and getting money,
those brothers are out here trying to repair the emotional and mental damage that you did to their lives, okay?
Those brothers will probably never be fully mentally healthy because of you, no-lip lender,
because of you and your bigotry.
One of the brothers, Santana Raymond, actually posted this on IG on March 1st to prove my point.
He said,
healing doesn't mean that the damage never existed.
It means that the damage doesn't control our lives.
And he said,
um,
see to God,
that's me.
He said,
thank you,
my brother for this.
And then he thanked his wife delicious.
And he went on to say that he always knew he suffered from mental health
issues,
but like other men in our communities,
he thought he didn't need help or that he could just handle it.
But today he realized he was wrong and he's going to get the help he needs.
Drop on the clues bombs for Raymond Santana.
I mean, Santana Raymond, OK, for investing in his mental wealth.
But lipless Linda, not Fairstein. This is all your fault.
OK, his trauma, majority of his trauma is directly your fault.
So how dare you have to call Cassidy that no-melanated, unmitigated gall to sue?
You should be praying for repentance.
You should be admitting you're wrong instead of continuing to double down like you've historically done.
Listen to lipless Linda on Fox Business News.
I think I know what happened.
I can live with what happened very, very comfortably.
And what I would like is for an unsealing of all the records that have been sealed for 12 years and let academics and journalists put the record before the public.
What do you think happened?
I think that these men were participants in the attack on the jogger as charged.
Even though the city has now made a $40 million settlement with them?
Yes, sir.
Jesus. Even though there was a convicted rapist in prison
who admitted to it and his DNA
was found
on the victim.
Lipless Linda.
No, no, and no. The proof is in the
prison sentences. Those kids were innocent
and you still convicted them. There's
nothing else to discuss here. This is why you gotta
chase Yacoub's kids back in their caves.
Linda, shut your piehole because that's literally all it is because you have no lips.
Shut that prejudice pie hole and figure out a way to spend the rest of your life
righting the wrong you did to these young men.
And who knows how many other black and Latino kids.
Okay, you probably got a lot of blood and a lot of unjust prison sentences on your hand.
And until you do right by admitting your wrongs,
you're going to spend the last days of your life miserable, broken, and unhappy.
Your life will be a living hell until you do right by the Central Park Five.
But hey, you a devil.
So hell is home.
Please let Remy Ma give lipless Linda not-fair-stein the biggest hee-haw.
Hee-haw, hee-haw.
You stupid mother-fucker.
You dumb.
All right.
Stop making people hold in their coughs. Not you, Linda. I stupid mother f***er. You dumb. All right. Stop making people
holding their coughs.
Not you, Linda.
I was talking to Envy.
I was just
dealing with two things
at the same time.
Feeling guilty or something?
No, because you
almost made Eddie die
because you made
you shame me
for coughing last break
and then
Eddie, our producer,
he in here
wanting to cough
and he
holding in his cough
about to choke
and kill himself
because you shaming people
because they're coughing.
It's allergy season.
A lot of people want to know
what is Eddie's Instagram.
Does Eddie have an Instagram?
Nope.
Beetlejuice2020.
Stop it.
Beetlejuice2020.
And let me shout out
to iHeart up here.
I just want to tell iHeart,
I know you guys got a lot
of hand sanitizer up here.
So I took some of your hand sanitizer
and put it in my
to-go bottles.
What is that?
Out there, you want some?
It's like a basket or something? No, it's not a basket. It's a big one
that you just pump into your little one.
You can't steal the hand sanitizer.
I'm going to give it back.
I would rather you do that.
I'm just pumping. I mean, I'm walking around the building. I want to to give it back. How? I would rather you do that. Yeah, I'm going to give it back. I'm just pumping.
I mean, I'm walking around the building. I want to
carry my own with me. That's not a problem. So you took the
big one and you pumped in the little one? Into my little one, yeah.
Got you, got you, got you. See, you freaky
man. You kinky man. What? You kinky
man. What? You are kinky. What?

Yes, I want to know, like, how can I get a boyfriend
and I work overnight?
Like, I'm lonely.
All right, you just want a boyfriend.
Well... This might be a bad time
Yeah, it's corona season, boo
Not cuffing season
I wanna be tough, though
I don't care about the corona
Not during the social distancing season
Some people do care about coronavirus
But
Do you have any guys
Who you're just friends with?
Do you have any friends with benefits?
No, I don't have none of that
Do you have homegirls or homeboys
That can hook you up with people? No, I don't have no friends It. Do you have homegirls or homeboys that can hook you up with people?
No, I don't have no friends.
That's a wrap for her right now, Yee.
Yeah, anybody got time to be coughing and cuffing with you?
Well, listen, this is a great time, though, for you to set up your dating profile.
You have a dating profile?
No, I have nothing.
All right, well, this is a good time for you to set all that up while you're at home
or working overnights and nobody's really going out.
And don't lie about your weight on there.
This is trying to get your profile together.
And that means you should go on some of these.
Oh, you're supposed to be 11 inches tall, 160 pounds.
I'm okay.
Whoa.
Okay, that's fine.
Listen, I'm sure you're beautiful.
So you can go on match.com.
There's a whole lot of dating sites out there.
You can go on Bumble.
You can go on those sites and post your profile.
And that's a great time for you to start swiping
through and seeing some potential
hookups. Okay.
Thank you. I'll go to the supermarket.
I'm sure there's some single men at the supermarket.
Yeah, but don't wear a mask though because you're
cute. You got to be seen. You better stop it.
You better wear a mask. That's some good advice
Angelina gave though because everybody's going to be in the house
for the next couple weeks trying to make new friends.
That's right. After this Corona season, you can get, you know,
you can get cuffed up, but I'm going to tell you something,
4'11", 160-something pounds,
I know a beanbag chair when I see one.
Oh, stop it, man.
Ask Yee, 800-585-1051.

Good morning.
Get some real
advice with Antilla Yee. It's Ask
Yee. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask
Yee. Hello, who's this?
This is me, bro, from Ypsilanti, Michigan.
What's up, bro? What's your question for Yee?
Ypsi. What's up? I just wanted to say I hated
that Corona didn't get you up there.
You were supposed to come over here and talk to the kids, man.
We appreciate you.
Yeah, I know, man.
First of all, he worded that all wrong.
I know, I know.
Hey, Envy, I'm sorry that the coronavirus didn't get you up here.
I was like, what?
I was like, what?
Don't start with your molded booty cakes, man.
Don't start.
That's how the coronavirus started, the molded booty cakes.
Stop it.
According to Donnell Rollins, that's how they started.
Yeah, I was supposed to go out there and talk to the kids in Detroit, man, and I was really looking forward to it. But because of the coronavirus, they canceled it. According to Donnell Rollins, that's how they stop it. Yeah, I was supposed to go out there and talk to the kids in Detroit, man, and I was really looking
forward to it, but because of the coronavirus,
they canceled it. So hopefully we'll get back
up there when all this is over and get a chance to talk
to the kids about everything, man. I was looking forward to
it, too. Definitely, definitely. The kids
are excited. But my question for you, and y'all probably
can chime in. My son, Kid J,
sometimes I tag y'all in it.
I don't know if y'all see it. I know y'all busy, you know, but
he just got verified on Instagram, just turned 20.
He just got his own charity event and everything going,
but he's a positive hip-hop artist.
My question is, how do I break the mold, you know,
without having to flash drugs and guns in a video?
What angle do I take to the music world
with me being his manager for these last five years?
And we've been making big moves, doing shows with T.I.,
you know, Swista, Ice Cube you know but he's a he's more of a he's more of a uh
he want to push more substance back in music and I don't I you know I sometimes I get confused on
the angle I suppose it take because I'm not going the way that everybody going I'm not pushing drugs
in the music I'm not pushing guns in my video I'm trying to do something different. Well yeah and
there's definitely an audience for that and there's other artists who also push
positive messages, and so
I think that's important, too, and music
substance is important.
So, has he been performing? You said
he's been performing at a lot of showcases?
Yeah, we did. You know, we fired him.
You know, we've been in New York. We've been in Atlanta.
We've done big shows. Like I said, he just got verified
on Instagram a couple. I tag Charlamagne
all the time. He don't like none of my stuff, but that's cool.
But no, anyway, I'm just saying.
But he's doing a lot of positive things.
You haven't even said his name this whole time.
The whole time.
Terrible manager you are.
No, you did.
Kid J.
You said Kid J or something like that.
He did say his name.
Kid J, man.
You know, I'm not trying.
But I'm just trying to find out.
You know, with me being his father, you know, I got other kids.
And, you know, we got to split our time with our children.
But he do have me busy and I'm wondering how do I go about, you know, that was my big question without trying to be like everybody else.
I'm not a big fan of the new music.
One thing I have to say, well, there's a few things I have to say here. Um, number one, do you have anybody that works with you that has experience in the music
business or that can be that, that help bridge for you to meet other people that are influential?
I do.
I grew up with Nisha Nishe, mom, you know, so I mess with Nisha a lot.
You know, we grew up.
Okay, that's my girl, Nisha Nishe.
Shout out to Nisha.
She from Ypsilanti also.
That's what I said, but I was just, I got a lot of people in place.
I just, you know, wanted to get your perspective on it, Yee, because it's just, you know.
I also feel like, how's this production?
I feel like a producer is really important.
And when you can lock in with a couple of producers who can help craft a person's sound,
I think that's really beneficial to who also believes in the artist
and has worked with other artists that can make those links.
That's important.
Okay.
I appreciate y'all.
All right, man.
Tell the man I want a booty cake, man.
How do I get one?
Whoa.
Well, first of all,
you know, I could have told you
that's how you make your way
in the industry from the start.
You know what I'm saying?
If you'd have led with that,
then we could have told you
how to really get on
in this industry, all right?
All right, all right.
Hey, y'all have a good one.
This went left.
Hopefully we get to see you.
All right, brother. That's right. All right. All right. All right. Hey, y'all have a good one. Hopefully we get to see you. All right, brother.
That's right.
All right.
Asking 800-585-1051.
Rumors on the way.
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. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Eminem.
Listen up. It's just in.
All the gossip. Gossip.
The Rumor Report.
Got gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's The Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Yes, so as you know, Eminem had this Godzilla challenge that he was doing with Trilla.
If you guys didn't remember, here it is.
Fill him with the venom and eliminate him. Other words, I'm in a meeting. I don't want to hurt him, but I did him. In a fit of rage, I'm murdering him. Get him, but he will evade him. Godzilla challenge that he was doing with Trilla. If you guys didn't remember, here it is. Well, congratulations.
They have announced a winner.
That winner is Jack Sherlock, one who got the number one spot.
It's all lip syncing.
So everybody had to actually lip sync in order to win.
So they did have a link to Eminem's website.
It has the five runner ups on there also.
I don't know what they win, though.
They didn't really say.
So not sure what's going to happen with that.
But congratulations to Jack Sherlock.
Now, a lot of people are doing their own coronavirus songs.
I know you guys have heard Papoose by now, right?
No, I haven't heard it, no.
All right, well, here it is.
I'm a virus, not the type of virus on your laptop.
I'm rich people. I murdered a half-nast, they, here it is. I'm a virus, not the type of virus on your laptop. I'm rich people.
I murdered a half-nast.
They had to call FEMA, not the FEMA in your leg.
Federal Emergency Management Agency instead.
They don't got enough ventilators, respirators to last.
I already know how you look, why you wearing a mask.
Took the kids out of school so they could stop learning.
Took parents out of work so they can stop earning.
Peace to Idris Elba.
Y'all need a vaccine?
Stand by.
Let's play a game of charades.
Who am I?
All right.
Also, Cassidy did his.
Listen to Cassidy's coronavirus bars.
They told you it's a global outbreak.
They know it's easy to manage, but see, they need you to panic.
It's all about cake.
Some of my dogs found out, Lee.
But now this is everywhere, like a dog you trying to housebreak.
Wait, when my dogs smell meat, then you about to find out how human meat in this mouth tastes.
I still feel coming out safe.
It's something small.
I was surprised how many people masked up I saw.
So I had to make a couple calls and realize this incident is just to implement martial law.
Players touch the ball with the same hands they sneezing over.
So the NBA shut down now and it's season over.
All too lyrical, man.
Papoose and Cassidy, a little bit too lyrical to be talking about coronavirus.
You know what I mean?
I prefer Cardi B.
Coronavirus, it is real.
That's the only warning call we need.
She didn't mean for that to be a song, though.
It just happened for her. That shows
the magic of Cardi B, though. People
love Cardi B's personality so much that they
take Cardi B content however they can get it.
Alright, in addition, JoJo also
did a coronavirus version
of Leave, Get Out, and listen to this.
Nah, we cool. You ain't even got to play it.
JoJo who?
What is JoJo?
Rev Run, son?
No.
Oh, never mind.
What's wrong with you, man?
I was like, why you being so disrespectful to JoJo?
No, I didn't want to hear Rev Run, son rap this morning.
What did she do to you?
Slew to my guy, JoJo, but I would have got sick if JoJo would have rapped.
I didn't feel like it.
Who want to hear JoJo rap early in the morning?
I never thought Corona could be such a nasty bitch.
But now that she's here, boy, all I want is for you to come and say, stay here right now.
All right.
And speaking of coronavirus, Millennium Tour dates have been postponed due to coronavirus.
I'm sure we knew that was going to happen.
They already do have rescheduled dates.
Tyra Banks also had to postpone the Model Land theme park opening over coronavirus as well.
Now, here's something interesting.
The Migos, they have agreed to pay back part of their Fyre Festival money.
So apparently they got $30,000 and they actually had to pay that back.
They were originally paid $100,000 to perform at Fyre Fest.
The performance never happened.
So now they're paying back $30,000. The Migos shouldn't have paid nothing
back. No, they get a deposit. So if
it's a $100,000 show, don't you get like a $50,000
deposit? Yeah, well, I was trying to perform.
Yeah, why do you have to pay money back?
Well, they pay back some of the money, not all of it.
So maybe you get the deposit and then you pay
back, you know, part of it. I thought you get the
deposit up front and then you get the rest when you get there, unless
they get all their money up front. That would make sense.
Listen, for that one, I think a lot of people
wanted their money up front
for that one. And Fetty Wap has been
ordered to pay his ex-employee $1.1
million and help restore her reputation.
Shawna Morgan actually had sued
him and his company for not reimbursing her
for all the money that she spent in touring costs.
She was supposed to be paid
between 5 and 10% of his performance profits,
and she was actually fronting money for him to perform places,
like for travel and for room and board and all of that,
and then she never got the money as well.
So now he has to pay her $1.1 million.
That's also for defamation and breach of contract.
Not only that, but he also has to post public retractions
on his social media accounts for things that he said about her.
So he hasn't done that yet, but he'll have to do that.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now it's time for the People's Choice Mix.
Let me know what you want to hear.
At DJ Envy, get your request in.
You know what?
Until this is over, I'm going to throw it back the first five,
seven minutes of the other mix.
Just some classics.
Let me know what you want to hear.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, it's Women's History Month.
Who are we repping today, Yee?
Well, today we are representing for retired NASA astronaut Mae Jameson.
She actually went into outer space in 1992.
On September 12, 1992, she launched into orbit, and her voyage was eight days.
Listen to Mae Jamison speak about it.
It's Women's History Month, and we're celebrating the most influential women in history.
Check out this phenomenal woman.
Just like every kid, I loved space.
An African proverb says, no one shows a child the sky.
But I grew up during this time that was incredible in terms of the work and the effort,
the activities that were going on, because every day they were breaking speed records,
right, whether it's on the land or ground or track or field. Every day, it seemed like there
was a new particle being discovered.
The reason why I'm doing this, the reason why I want to tell you this and where we're going to
is because people talk about the good old days and the 1960s and Apollo, which was an incredible time.
But Franz Fanon, who was a Martin Neacon psychiatrist in the 1950s and 60s, he said each generation must, out of relative obscurity,
discover its mission, fulfill it, or betray it. We can't have the same mission that we had in
the 1960s, whether it's social, cultural, whether it's environmental, or whether it's in space.
And that was another phenomenal woman in history.
Yes, so shout out to Mae Jamison.
In addition to that, you know, she's also a doctor and a dancer.
So she's a jack of all trades.
All right.
Well, when we come back, we got the positive note.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, shout out to Cisco and friends for joining us.
The new Drew Hill.
That's so disrespectful.
It's the new Drew Hill and the members of Playa as well as Cisco from Drew Hill.
Well, that's what he said.
You know what I mean?
Cisco and friends.
Yeah, that ain't going to work.
Because Drew Hill is just, people know Drew Hill.
That's right.
You can't replace certain groups.
Like, you can't replace the members of Jodeci.
You can't replace the members of Jagged Edge.
We know all those people by name.
Correct.
112.
112.
They sounded good, though, right?
I mean, a player can sing.
A player can sing.
Like, what Sisqo,
like I suggested to Sisqo
in the interview,
just start a new name.
Create a new group.
Create a new group.
But Destiny's Child did it,
like we said.
Yeah, but they didn't replace
Beyonce and Kelly.
You know what I mean?
Like, you couldn't replace them two.
They didn't replace the whole group, but there was four of them at first.
And they were on the rise.
They were on the come up.
Now you're doing old classic hits.
It's a little different.
They did that.
They did that.
Destiny's Child did that when they were still trying to establish themselves as a super group.
And once again, they didn't replace Beyonce and Kelly.
I feel like it happens with groups all the time.
With the Temptations, they did it.
Right?
I didn't grow up in that era, so I didn't know nothing of the Temptations.
Yeah, because they still perform to this day now.
It's not the same original members.
I haven't been to a Temptations concert.
It's like replacing Wu-Tang.
Imagine Wu-Tang saying, hey, we're not going to have Mephiman,
or Ghostface.
This is, you know. We're going to bring EPMD in. Anything. It's not going to have Mephiman, our ghost face. This is, you know.
We're going to bring EPMD in.
Anything.
It just wouldn't work.
It's not going to work.
It's not going to work.
But anyway, leave us on a positive note.
The positive note is simply this, man.
I want everybody out there to know what makes you different or weird,
that's your strength.
Lean into that.
Breakfast club, bitches.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. Lean into that. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine.
I own this. It's surprisingly
easy. 55 gallons of water,
500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe
not. No country
willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my god. What is that? Bullets.
