I know it. Thank you so much. Y'all have a good morning. You too. Hey, Keisha. Hey, how you doing, Evie? You got a deep voice, Keisha. What's up?

I had to talk to my husband a whole lot. You got him all the way in. Well, thank you. Thank you and your family. All right. Well, thank you. If you don't know

what she's talking about, we got a podcast called The Casey Crew with me and my wife. She's talking about relationship, everything, good to bad to ugly. And we have good discussions. And it's all honest, all true. But thank you for listening, mama. Yes, and we have a blended family.

So that's what I wanted to say. I'm blessed for that. All right. I'm going to shout you out on this podcast. Excuse me? You're blessed because you got a white husband? I said you're blessed because you got a white husband? Excuse me? You're blessed because you got a white husband? What's that call I need to say?

So you better have the same energy. Chandelier. It's Chandler. Oh, same energy. Chandelier. It's Chandler. Oh, my bad. Chandelier. My bad, bro. You're calling from Ohio, man. Why are you mad this morning, man?

Because my daughter's mom, she hasn't let me see my daughter within four years. I don't want full joint custody. When she was two, she was about to be nine, but she tried to lie and say that I hit my daughter. But, you know, in Ohio, they go with whatever the woman says. I even beat that case, and I'm trying to subpoena her to get my visitation

so I can get my joint custody back, but she's still acting stupid. I'm going to say her name so everybody in Columbus can know. Her name is Brittany, but she ain't letting me see my daughter within, you know, I missed four of her birthdays. I done missed four Father's Day with her now, so, you know what I'm saying?

But that's why I'm mad, because I've been trying to fight this case for about three, four years and she still... That's awful, and your daughter probably has no idea what's going on. She just knows her dad's not around. Yeah, she had put me in jail, which I beat that case, so she probably thinks the last two years I've been in jail. Hey, brother, you keep fighting.

I love brothers that go out there and actually fight for their kids. Absolutely. When it comes to child support and custody and all that good stuff, man. Angel, good morning. Good morning. Today's your birthday. Ow. Ow, it is.

Happy birthday. How old are you, Angel? How old are you? I am 37. There you go, boo. Thank you so much. How are you guys, Angel? How old are you? I am 37. There you go, boo. Thank you so much. How are you guys today? We are great, man.

I'm glad you're having a great birthday. What you doing today? Actually, I have to go to work, but that is fine. I enjoy that as well. But after work, I'm going to hang out with my girls. I have three daughters. Amen. So I'm going to hang out with them.

And then that's about it. There you go. All right. Are they going to have cake for you at work and stuff? Well, they should have cake at work and my desk decorated when I get there so I'm excited. Thank you guys already in advance. Are you sure you can eat cake at your age?

I am positive I can eat cake at my age. And actually Charlamagne to be honest with you, I've earned the right because in 2015 I was almost 300 pounds. I've lost about 110 pounds. There you go, boo. I love to hear that. You eat your cake.

I don't know if you should have the cake, though. I would choose some celery. Choose a healthier option. Let's keep that weight coming down. I got it. I got it. It's going to be a nice little small piece, little piece of cake. We got it covered.

I promise. What made you want to lose that weight, boo? I was on blood pressure medicine every day, and I was just little piece of cake. We got it covered. I promise. What made you want to lose that weight, boo? I was on blood pressure medicine every day and I was just really tired of it. I wanted to change. I was tired. I couldn't really keep up with the girls and I wanted to do something different for myself. There you go.

You just wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. I respect that, okay? Congratulations. Well, have a great morning, mama. You too. Have a great day, guys. Alright. That is the best birthday gift you can give yourself is the gift of good health, okay? You're 100-plus pounds, you lose some of that weight, boo. All right? All right.

Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. You're blessed. You can call us. You're mad. You can call us. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, Safari. He wasn't invited. He said he needs to stop by.

He said he wasn't invited. No, he wasn't. He just called and said he's coming. I can't believe he's up here again. I got the juice. You know what I'm saying? It's just like that. I can make the call pop up.

I hopped up. Now I'm here. He is here. Safari, ladies and gentlemen. We just need to fill content because we had 18 hours. That's all. That's all. What's happening? Safari came through. Of course, he had a is here. Safari, ladies and gentlemen. We just need to fill content because we had 18 hours. That's all. That's all. What's happening?

Of course, he had a fur on. Yes, he did. Let me take this off too. Hot. You was wearing it when it was 70 degrees out. Now all of a sudden it's hot? It's different though.

The studio's cold. If you was going to wear it, it's in here. It's freezing. What made you decide to pick up the furs? Why the furs is your thing now? It's been my thing.

It's always been a thing for a while. It's always been a thing for a while. My fur's been the furs. Yeah. You act like you don't know. He hasn't seen you yet. They sent me an email. No.

No. They really did? No, no, no. They sent me an email saying like, hey, you know, Safaree, we don't know if you know what goes into what's being done into getting your fur combed. The animals, right. And they were like, we want you to come to the headquarters so we can show you so you can stop wearing fur. Are you going to go?

Are you going to go? I didn't answer the email. Are you thinking about it? That's the next thing. The next thing is they're going to throw paint on you in the street. But are you thinking about going? Just to see.

It might change your mind. Um, no. How will you react if they throw paint on you? Will you show them that you're the roughest, toughest bum clot you make in this side of Jamaica?

I would jump. What is that? What is that? side of Jamaica? I would probably, what is that? What is that? What, what, what? I would probably, I would probably laugh, you know, and behind all of that,

that's what I'm saying, you know, I'm about to drop the illest project, body of work, called Fur Coat, volume one. Okay.

Oh, so you can't stop wearing it now that when you got this. You would have to change it to Faux Fur Coat. Faux Fur Coat. The name of my mixtape is Fur Coat,

so that's me. Tell everybody it's fake. It don't gotta be real fur. Just tell everybody it's. The name of my mixtape is fur coat. You know what I want to know? Tell everybody it's fake. It don't got to be real fur. Just tell everybody it's fake. Yeah, this ain't a real fur, Peter. I think you can look at it and tell. You know what I'm saying? Don't worry about it.

You can look at it and tell. Jesus Christ. No, I'm saying you can tell it's real. Oh. You can tell when a coat is real. Now, what happened when we seen you on TV one time and you had the illest fake line in the world? I was going to call you

the illest fake line. Oh my God. Yes. I forgot about that. Oh my God. So look, I never, that's a good question

because people be asking me about it but I never really spoke about it. So what had happened was the dude, he has put Beijing in my hair, right? Oh my God. So when he did it,

he didn't wash it out because I was in a rush. What is Beijing? Beijing is something that you Beijing in my hair, right? Oh, my God. So when he did it, he didn't wash it out because I was in a rush. What is Beijing? Beijing is something that you put in your hair. It's a dye. You're too young to need Beijing so far. No, no, no.

You don't have a gray hair. But look, I know, but look. So it's a thing that makes your hair extra, extra black. So I'm like... Like shoe polish. It's not like shoe polish. It's not like shoe polish.

It's not like shoe polish. It's not like shoe polish. All right, so I guess shoe polish for your hair, right? He's the egg dye. Yeah, yeah. So he put it in my hair, and I had to film, and I couldn't be late. So I just was like, yo, let's just leave it, and we'll finish it later.

So I didn't wash it out. So it just had my hair looking crazy. So what happened? There was no hats available in the Tri-State area that day? I kind of felt like the camera person could have said something. He probably seen it. His line was down to almost his eyebrows. It was dope though.

It wasn't how far down it was. It was just the texture and how see-through it was. It just looked crazy. But you want to know what's so crazy? Some people hit me up to go like do some,

like work with them and they paid me a lot of money to do it. So it worked out. What you mean? To do what? It's some hair growth stuff I'm about to do in there.

You know what I'm saying? So you take a hair growth test. No, no, no. You're trying to get your hairline back. It ain't trying. I'm good. I did the surgery.

Women get fake asses and fake breasts. What do you mean you did the surgery? You get a fake hairline. You had a hair implant? You see the surgery that LeBron did? Yes. I did that years ago before people even knew. Yeah, it worked.

Just let it go, bro. Let it go. If I didn't do it, bro, my hair would not be where it is right now. But you could just have a body. No, I don't think that would look bad on me. That's what I got. You know why? Because my hairline's in the middle of my head.

I look like Robocop when you take your mask off. But you got a small head. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Pause. Yeah, I can see why you say that. So we seen on the other day

on the internet. Why not grow dreads? You Jamaican. Not every Jamaican has dreads, man. That's such a stereotype. How dare you? What the hell?

Yeah, we were talking about you the other day in the rumor report, Safari. We seen you shoot your shot again. What are y'all talking about? You posted Nicki Minaj on the cover of Paper Magazine. You said, please figure something out. These are the kind of

pictures I always wanted you to take from me. Wow. I'm gonna be honest. I don't think Nicki will date a reality show star. And that's what Charlamagne said. I think that's beneath her. I'm not a reality show star. Yes, you are. No. What are you then? I'm just out there. I'm out there. You are a reality show star. You're on two shows.

Three. I'm on five. Five? Oh, I said three star. You're on two shows. Three. I'm on five. Five? Yeah. I said three. Love and hip hop. But true love and hip hop. Why did you cry at the end of

Love and Hip Hop LA? Thank you, thank you. You know what? I heard you gave me Donkey of the Day for that. No, I didn't give you Donkey but I was like, why cry?

Let me explain what happened. In that segment, I just finished speaking about my uncle. My uncle was just killed. Right. So that's where I was at mentally.

So I was thinking about that when I was talking about that. And my last week of living in L.A., that's the week my uncle got killed. So I was talking about that, and then it went to the whole leaving thing. They did you dirty. They made it seem like you were crying because that was your career peak. And that was the highest you had gotten in your career. They made it seem like he was crying because that was your career peak and that was the highest you had gotten in your career. They made it seem like he was crying because he was going to miss everybody. It was, nah, it was

really mentally I was in the world of talking about my uncle in a hat. Because I was thinking if he cried like that because he's leaving Love & Hip Hop, imagine how he cried when he left Nicki. Oh, when Nicki left him. No, but we got to go back to that. You were shooting your shot again?

You seen those pictures and you was like... No, no, I'm going to be honest and I'm not going to lie. And it's like, I'm not doing nothing for attention or hating or nothing. Like, those were some amazing pictures. And I used to really want her to take pictures like that for me. So, you know what I'm saying? That's why I just was like, wow. Like with three of her?

We were inspired too. You want to see? Look, I'm going to show you. We were inspired by that. Sabaya has no idea what I'm going to show you. We were inspired by that. Safaree has no idea what he's about to see. The Breakfast Club broke the internet. Look at me looking proud. Look at me looking proud.

Yo! Envy's face is the worst one. I know, I know. But it looks like it matches you a little bit, though. That's all right. All right, Safaree. Charlamagne actually looks the most real. Yeah, it does.

It looks perfect on Charlamagne. Nah, yours does. But shout out to Bear the Humor and Danelle Rawlings. So now, you were trying to shoot your shot

because you could've kept it to yourself. You guys, this has nothing to do with the donation. You're right, you're right, you're right. But you want Nikki back, though. Look.

You thought about it. Come on, you want Nikki back. No, of course I still care about her. No, no, no, no. You want her back. You do. You want the shot to a shot, Safari.

Listen, I don't shoot my shot. I just was saying what I was saying about the pictures, what everybody else said. You know what I'm saying? So I just was looking at it. No, no, no. You were shooting. The way I shake it, Faiz.

Safari, I have a feeling that y'all two kind of speak to each other a little bit. Hell no. No, with some tragedies in the family that have happened. Hell freaking no. And that's unfortunate. And I would feel like you guys would like... Have you sent her a text saying sorry about your brother or anything like that? No.

How do you feel about that situation? Safari? It's just crazy because I know everyone involved. So it's just something that I would have never, ever thought in a million years would actually happen. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I'm sure no one would have thought something like that That is just crazy when you know the people so it's just like like can't even wrap your brain around You know call nobody from that side though. You don't call

Visit him the other day, and I know that gotta be tough to even go into system to see him Oh, I didn't know he's in jail Oh, I didn't know he was I didn't know he was in jail Oh, I mean, I don't know I thought I read that to it. He said Nikki when to go see him. Oh, I didn't know he was in jail, though. I mean, I don't know. I read that, too. They said Nikki went to go see him. Oh, I didn't know that. We got more with Safari. When we come back, don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got Safari in the building. What do you think of Meek Mill being sentenced to two to four years?

It's none of my business. Okay. First Code Volume 1 is dropping this Monday. I don't care what you say, Charlamagne. I'm so nice. Charlamagne, I'm not even going to beg him or ask him because when I drop it, you're going to hear it and be like, how about I historically listen to your music

and give you real feedback? You know what? On my first project, Charlamagne was my intro for my first mixtape. Yes. And what did he say about it, though? I don't remember what I said. He supported it. It don't matter.

He was a part of it. But I've always given you real feedback on your music. He definitely does. You know what I'm saying? But, dog, hold on. By the time my new song, Paradise, was shown on Kingston, it just hit a million. Just hit a million. Just hit a million. Views on YouTube.

What that mean? I'm independent, boy. What you mean, what that mean? I put that out by myself. I get a million views on YouTube. That don't mean nothing. No, it don't matter. Give him his props for his time.

No, no. Give me my props. I got to hear it first. I got to hear it first. Now, I will say this, Safar. You're not as whack as people try to make you out to be. Thank you. I'm nice.

That's not a compliment. Shalman, you're one of those people. Well, yeah. What is this, live? Yeah. What you got? You know what? I'm going to let my fans cuss you out, Charlamagne.

They hate you. They do? You got fans? Yeah, why? Yeah, I'm going to show you. Yo, what's happening? Charlamagne the God here. You know what I'm saying?

I'm on SB's live right now. My name's Safaree. Oh, my bad. Safaree's live right now. Charlamagne got good skin, so he acts real different now. You know it. I'm one of the best rappers in the world,

whether you realize it or not. What plan did you want, Nick? First coat, volume one, November 20th. What plan, what world are you talking about? On Spotify and iTunes and all that. What world? Now, see, this is the thing, Safari. You had us.

Listen, by the way, by the way, I always say Safari's not as whack as people make him seem, but when you talk like that, that you're the best in the world. That's when we start being like, all right, Safaree, simmer down. Good. If I don't believe in me, who will?

Just like y'all don't believe in me, I believe in me. You're 16 right now, then. Yo. Sim-sima. Who got this here? Who am I? Look at him. He says that on Paradise.

Yes. I thought you never heard the song. Who said that? Sean, it made me frightened. I never said that. He just said I never heard the song. Sean, it made me frightened. He just said I never heard the song. I'm not trying to hit for a coat. Nobody heard it because Ferkel didn't drop yet. It's not out. It's been 16 for the people, man.

Look, I'm feeling lyrical and biblical, sitting up on my pedestal. No matter how you see it, I'm the pinnacle. It's pitiful. You an imbecile. If you try to make it physical, you end up critical. Think it's subliminal. You not no criminal. Stereotypical.

Don't see me. I'm invisible. Okay, I'm switching up the pattern. Stamina spasm. Combative. I'm a really flattened, violent assassin. Got God on my side. Christ with a passion.

A bunch of mad ex-bitches. Fatal attraction. Feeding y'all bullshit. That's a distraction. Rip it on any beat. That's an adaption. I'm running out of breath. I'm bringing it back in.

Need my money up front. Don't deal with a back in. Your pockets on a diet. I'm calling you Atkins. I'm bringing it back in. Need my money up front. Don't deal with a back in. Your pocket's on a diet. I'm calling you Atkins. Nah, that ain't it, y'all. Listen, man. You were too aggressive, man. You're too hype.

No, because, man, that was a diss track to you. You made him aggressive. You're too aggressive. You got me hype. Why was you so hype, man? If you listen to him and then you listen to how Nicky rap, you guys kind of rap the same. You love saying that. We do not rap the same. You love saying that. We do not rap the same.

You love saying that. We do not rap the same. That is the same flow. I can't with y'all. I can't with y'all. You know what? Sorry. We appreciate you.

Listen, by the way, hold on. Do you think that Nicki's fell off a little bit? I saw you quoting one of her bars the other day. You quoted the, what bar was it? What? The that you can't smoke with me. You quoted the, what bar was it? What? The that you can't smoke with me. You can't smoke with me. It's a lace blunt.

That was hard. I like that verse, actually. Yeah. I liked it. You think she fell off a little bit? Rake it up as hard? Mm-hmm. You know what I like about Safaree?

He's a good sport. He is. Y'all be talking so crazy. Safaree's a nice guy. Safaree's a nice guy. I always thought Safaree was a very nice person. Nobody said he wasn't a nice guy.

But y'all be going in on him and he still will come up and still be cool. Yeah, man. Safaree's the guy that's determined to prove you wrong. Absolutely.

I know it's not even about proving you wrong. It's just that I got a family and my family depends on me and I want to make my mom proud. I will say this. I will say this.

I do like the fact that you didn't go to the wayside once Nikki dumped you. Like, you didn't, like... The wayside? Yeah, like, you didn't just allow yourself to fall off. You didn't do the Jennifer Lopez. What was his name? I don't even remember.

Like, you went out there and you made something of yourself. Charlamagne, that's the first time you ever said something positive to me. Thank you. It wasn't really because he said the wayside. He didn't go to the wayside. He didn't go to the wayside. He didn't go to the wayside. You know what?

Yeah. You want to end this with one more 16 real quick? Listen, Charlemagne, champagne. His hair used to look like a ball for men campaign. I'm here with gold headphones. Charlemagne, leave me alone. Go home. Ace of spade.

I'm going to take a deck of cards until they show up. People always tell me they'll come. They're like, yo, them guys are so negative. They don't support you. That's not true. You guys are fun people. Who has supported you more than us? Honest. Be for real now. Y'all were the first people to ever give me a big platform interview. That first interview I ever did with y'all definitely changed everything that I did.

Oh, the one where you sucked your teeth a hundred times. That's when I knew you was really making it. Yeah, he sucked his teeth a hundred times. When I was drinking the tea and that was like my first time talking publicly. He cried. He cried that one. I didn't cry. Y'all love telling me I cried. No, but he was like watery. Did you cry when you and Nikki broke up seriously?

Of course he did. Because you were cancer like me. So we sensitive and emotional. I'm saying of course there's times. Of course. Y'all were together a long time. When I realized, yo, damn, it's really, really over. Of course, there was times, you know, that feeling hit me. But, you know, I just wish outside of all this,

it's messed up that we can still be friends. Friends, you know what I'm saying? And it's like, I don't need nothing from you, you know. It's not like, oh, I don't need money or nothing.

Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building. Yes, sir. Drew Hill. Yo,

yo, yo. What's up, what's up, what's up? What's up, what's up? What's up, my brothers? What's going on, man? What's going on?

I know Cisco's been here. I feel like y'all been here. Y'all been here before? Nah, just Cisco. Just Cisco. Wow. All right. First time to Breakfast Club.

Now, y'all got a Christmas album out. Yes, sir. Let's start there. Christmas in Baltimore. Okay. It's our, you know, first Christmas album ever after, you know, 20 years. And we just, the fans kept asking us for music, and we couldn't let it go another year. It's our first Christmas album ever after 20 years. The fans kept asking us for music, and we couldn't let it go another year.

So we wanted to make sure we gave them something special this year. Is there money in these Christmas albums? That's a good question. I guess we'll see. When you do these Christmas songs, is that just out there for anybody to be able to use? Like public or do you have to get things cleared? There are some public domain songs, but we only did one remake. And that was Silent Night from The Temptations. Because for me, it's not Christmas unless I, All I Want for Christmas from Mariah Carey

and Silent Night from The Temptations. And we wasn't going to sing Mariah's song, so we went for that. The craziest part is my shout-out to Thea. She was like, Envy, you don't have any Christmas songs? I was like, all I have is The Temptations, Christmas in Hollis, Run DMC, and Mariah Carey. I was like, there's no more Christmas songs.

No Boyz II Men? What's with Boyz II Men? They had a Christmas album, didn't they? Oh, you mean Snow House? Christmas in Hollis Run DMC Right right And Mariah Carey I was like There's no more Christmas songs No Boys the Men What's with Boys the Men They had a Christmas album Didn't they Yeah You got Dipset in Harlem You got Christmas in Harlem I got Dipset in Harlem

Yeah I do But there was no Like nobody makes Christmas songs Or Christmas albums anymore Right So why did y'all guys Decide to do it Just for that reason

Right there Yeah exactly To add to the roster. Yeah, you know what I mean? We made, you know, all of our albums that, you know, we did. So, you know, before we got into the proper Drew Hill albums, like, you know, let's not let another year go past and have people asking us,

when are we going to hear y'all sing? And after this, you guys have another album coming out, right? Exactly. So this is kind of the set up for that First of all I want to salute to y'all For creating one of the greatest moments in radio history When I was a young radio lad I watched y'all on WERQ

In Baltimore And you know you guys reunited Oh yeah And then in the moment God told Woody Nope this is what I don't want you to do. Cisco slammed his headphones down and said you could have told us this yesterday.

And then the video cuts with Nokia swinging at Woody. I was like, this is amazing. Amazing radio. Way before the internet was really a thing thing. Well, me and Noka already fought right before this album started. So we got it. You got it. Did y'all remember that? You don right before this album started, so we got it out. You got it out your system. Did y'all remember that? You don't remember that?

No, no, no, no. He talking about like the process of recording the Christmas album. Like the first day, you know, we got our new venture with Drew Hill Entertainment and Empire, so we sitting with the people from Empire and they playing records, and

you know, it was just a moment where it was like, look, man, we're not doing nothing we ever did before. And, you know, we got into it in front of, you know, it was, you know, I went and sat outside. Everybody calmed down. You know, we talked about it. But that's just it. That's just the passion, man. It's like. It wasn't.

I mean, it wasn't really. It wasn't really. It wasn't really like. It wasn't. It wasn't. It wasn't physical or it was a little bit physical? Just a little. It? Just a little. Him and I used to fight

every day at rehearsal and then one day... She used to get on my nerves. One day, Jazz was like, if y'all keep this up, I'm gonna whip both y'all. I mean...

It kept going though. But y'all older now, y'all swing a punch, you're like, I'm tired, man. Let's go get some... We all grown now. Anybody's had to fight. We come from a generation where you're like, man, I'm tired, man. Let's go get something to eat. We all grown. We come from a generation where you fight with your friends,

and the next day y'all dabbing each other up. You make the point, and then it's over with. It's not nothing that's in the fan with the music or nothing like that. That moment in Baltimore, though, how did y'all get to the point of reconciliation, let's bring the group back, and then Woody, in that moment, you were like, I don't want to be here. Well, no one was drinking. That was a dry snake right now the night before but no i mean for real like you never know where people are in life and we we we came back you know after taking a lot of

time and you know figuring what we really wanted to do And so it was just for it to happen so fast with, like, no real discussion after, you know, it was commitment made. It was things that, you know, people were doing to move around and, you know, be able to actually make it happen. And then all of a sudden, you're like, oh, man, I don't want to do it again. So, you know, that wasn't. But he said God, though. I mean, he said God the first time, too. I'm just saying, I mean, like, Woody is our brother like everybody else. And, you know, it was a moment in time.

It didn't go past that. It wasn't like, man, if I see you on the street, you know, whatever. It wasn't nothing like that. It was just what it was. It was the expression of, you know, what happens when things like that happen sometimes. I'm sure you guys have a lot of behind-the-scenes stories, like before you're about to perform and something crazy happens.

Oh, yeah. And then it's about you about to hit the stage. You used to flip the tables over, all that stuff. Oh, yeah. He, Note, was notorious, and I would draw snitches for, like, just wrecking the room. The Note story.

Like, on our video Like on our video, on our video, I love you, where you like see him like trash. Oh, man. I actually do that. That was real footage. I don't know what that real note was.

Never from another title. Do y'all ever get tired of each other? Like even now? I mean, yeah. It's like you don't always... You know what I'm saying? I mean, the thing about it is like... You get thing about it is you don't always like each other, but we love each other, and we've been through too much to let little stuff...

It's like I said, it's expressing the moment. I'm going to let you understand where I am, and then after that, that's it. We're going to go jump on stage, and we're going to make this music. Do y'all have to make new music, or y'all can just talk? I mean, the reality is making new music helps with, you know, being on the road and being visible. But at the same time, we were like one of the last groups of artists that really had artist development and that, you know, the purpose was to teach you to be in the industry

as long as you wanted to be in it. So, I mean, we on the road every week. We all over the world. And, you know, even before, you know, having this situation with Empire, we just been on the road doing what we do. You know, I mean, because that's really where it started, especially with us with radio.

It was like people heard the record, but it wasn't until they started to perform. And it was like, oh, okay, like they do this for real. So we try to stay there first because that's what, you know, grabs the people before anything else. Yep. They realized we wasn't a fake Jodeci. We were Drew Hill, damn it. But you guys were so inspired by

Jodeci. Oh, man. My best to sound like KCS. Look, you can't understand, like, you know, being friends with them and, you know, mentor, them being mentors and everything. But when the day came that they finally, like, asked us to come out on stage and, like, do the

Jodeci set with them, and we got to sing all the songs that we were singing in high school, like, that was, like, all right, cool. Wasn't y'all original group name inspired by Jodeci? Yeah, it was Legacy. Yeah, we had a Legacy. Yeah, it had a high at the end. You know, we was trying, you know, we wore the boots and Carhartt We had to hide the N. We was trying, you know.

We wore the boots and Carhartt jackets. Together Brothers. That was the label. Together Brothers. Together Brothers. No, I mean, like, no. That's not a great name. No, no, somebody at the label was like,

we was doing Tell Me, and, like, somebody really, like, we were trying to figure out the name, and they were like, what about the Together Brothers? It was like, what? No, no, no, no, no, no. But isn't Drew Hill, like, the name of y'all, a street or something? Yeah, it's like, it's no, no, no, no. But isn't Drew Hill like the name of y'all street or something? It's Druid Hill Park, and it's a street also,

but nobody says Druid Hill like I'm going to Druid Hill. It's like I'm going up Druid Hill Park. So we wanted to just let people know, especially being from Baltimore, that no matter where we go in the world, we always love where we come from. We'll never forget about that. All right, we got more with Drew Hill when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast from. We'll never forget about that. We got more with Drew Hill when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Drew Hill in the building. Charlamagne? Now, Jazz, where were you when Sisqo and Kyle was fighting? You like to bounce out of the group a little bit.

You know what I'm saying? Where was you when... Hey, man, first of all, I think we were in a room just chilling. We didn't even know where he was at. We didn't even know, you know. Me and Kyle was walking around getting drunk. See? Oh, you were by yourself? No, just me and him together. Tao came and broke it up.

Got you. Oh, and you and Kyle was already together hanging out? Yeah, we was rolling, we was rolling around getting this. I went to go use the bathroom. Sounds like a mess. Yeah, it seems like a mess.

I went to go use the bathroom in our room and our room was locked. So he was like, come on, you can use the bathroom in our room. And, you know,

we was, you know, telling a couple lines Friday. That's what he was telling. Telling a couple lines in that story's what he said. Hold on. Hold on. That's a story. Everybody got their own dressing room when you do a show at a certain caliber.

And our dressing room was locked. The Drew Rio dressing room was locked. And Nez was not. Do you remember what the conversation was that led to the fight? Nope. That's crazy because you never would think R&B groups was fighting back then. But you did with Jagged Edge.

Man, but we was like, man, you were right after it. These R&B groups, like, bad R&B groups. Like, these ain't your, like, you talking about Drew Hill. R&B is like...

And Jagged Edge. Look, I mean, a lot of times, I mean, R&B might be, you know, more real than rap, but for real, just, you know what I mean? Like, you're always

dealing with emotions and, you know, I mean, we try not to, you know, we don't feel like getting in trouble and, like, that's not, like, what we seek out to do, like, you're always dealing with emotions, and, you know, I mean, we try not to, you know. We don't feel like getting in trouble, and, like, that's not, like, what we seek out to do, especially when you're trying to sing a song to a girl about being in love. But, I mean, sometimes that's just what happens. How many physical altercations have y'all had?

Man, who knows? What each other means. Just in general. A lot. A lot. None. No, we had not been in trouble. No, no, no.

For real. It wasn't even really a fight. It was, like, wrestling. Like, it had not with each other. No, no, no. For real. It wasn't even really a fight. It was like wrestling. It wasn't even a fight. It was like, hey man, what you mean? What you say to me? By the time I got there,

it was just, you know, tussling around, you know what I mean? Was it hard to break up? Nah. Two winos. I mean, not winos, but two people drunk.

Two people drunk. I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that. Two people drunk. And then, mean that. I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that. Two people drunk. And then, you know what I'm saying? Just in there wilding out. His visual is not good.

Look, that's my man. Kyle and Cisco. That's my man. I wasn't in it. It wasn't even like a real fight. You know what I'm saying? It's all good. You know what I mean?

Did you have a drinking problem back then, Cisco? I don't have a drinking problem at all. Well, back then. No, period. Never. That just slipped out. problem back then, Cisco? I don't have a drinking problem at all. Or back then? No, period. Never. That just slipped out. I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that.

We were off work. I was having... You were celebrating. Yeah. That's it. We all get a drink every now and again. We just cool, like, literally, like, right after it. We still straight to death.

Now we hear all these horror stories about... Jazz is like, please, you gotta drink. This is a funny moment right now. Originally, you know, what happened? Right. Well, two drunk people was fighting. Now we hear all these stories about bad deals that artists had early on in their career,

but you guys did have some guidance and people that were helping you out. So what was that like for y'all starting out, getting your first deal? We had bad deals too, for real. I mean, we put it like this. You learn something that's called industry standard, which means we're not going to take everything from you,

but we're going to take a lot. But in return, we're going to risk our billions of dollars to put you out there and do everything else. So starting out, you're just like, I want to be in it. And then, you know, luckily after that, that's when people started coming and saying, hey, look, you guys ain't really got to do this. You guys don't really have to do that, you know. And we just always stood for, you know, what we knew and what we believed.

And we went in the studio with Babyface the first time we recorded with him. And he said, man, all you got to do is outlive all the bad deals, and then you can do everything that you want to do. And, I mean, like, for real, we've been through everything that you could go through in this business. And we started, we were kids, like, you know, like kids' kids. Like, none of this facial hair, like, nothing. It's like just coming in here fresh out of Baltimore

and just wanting to make it. Tell me my mustache was drawn on. You know, like, we wanted, like, I mean, like, for real, like, we were the kids that were really, like, happy to be here. We shook everybody's hand, and it's like, hey, you know, like, Drew Hill, they don't drink, they don't do anything, you know. But, you know, after a while, people, you know, just try to take advantage of you, and, you know,

you just got to let them know, like, man, we're here to stay, so we're going to figure it out. That's just like a rite of passage. Yeah, I mean, like, because it was like five years or so. That's just like a rite of passage. Yeah, I mean, because it was like five years or so. I didn't know you could split a penny until our first deal. It was like five years before we had our first deal that

we were together, so we were going back and forth to the Apollo. We were going to meet Jimmy Iovine in California, and people were setting up meetings. We did the whole thing. People knew who we were. we just didn't have that opportunity and we actually got the opportunity on the last day

that we were going to be together like the production company here called and said look take this meeting in New York if it don't work out I'll let y'all out your contract because I'm always trying to hear us sing and I'm making no money and you know we came up here they told us look if you they played us tell me they said if you sing back the hook to us in 15 minutes,

you have a song out in 30 days. They left out. They came back. We sang the song. We was down at the hip factory that ain't there no more in the big room. As soon as we finished singing it, they opened up that door, and they put us in the studio. We had a song out 30 days later.

No paperwork. It was a handshake. Look, I give you all this song. What did that do? What did that do? Hiram Hicks. Hiram got all the money. No, I mean, Hiram ain't got all the money. No, I mean,

Hiram ain't get all the money. No, I mean, look, we ain't gonna get into all of that, how that went down. I'm just saying that, like, we learned a great lesson early on.

Like, we got the guidance. We got people that gave us opportunities. We got to produce on our first album, you know, all that stuff. But at the same time, we got to see

the bad side of it. And because of that, we always stay insulated because we ain't come from nobody's team. We ain't come, we don't get invited to none of the. And because of that, we always stay insulated because we ain't come from nobody's team. We ain't come, we don't get invited to none of the reunions,

you know, when no record companies get together because we weren't a part of that. We're just some kids from Baltimore that knew we could sing and knew we could be better

than anybody that was out there and we just spent the last 20 years proving that to people. When did y'all start making money? I mean, honestly, probably like two years later, like two years later after we first started. It's like, you know, you start out, first you make, like see, we start making money? I mean, honestly, probably like two years later, like two years later

after we first started. It's like, you know, you start out, first you make, like, see, we started making money in high school, so like, we would like,

you know, be able to go shopping at the school and everybody like, ooh, you know, whatever else. You know what I'm saying? Like, you do all that. I had a Cuban with the Jesus piece,

but it was thin. You know what I'm saying? I had a Cuban with the Jesus piece. And then, you know, they gave us, you know, like, we had, you know, a deal where we gave us you know like like we had you know a deal where we made money

for records that we did for the album so you know we slowly but surely you know then you get the show money the beginning of it whatever

but it wasn't until like that right after that second album hit and we were like all over the world like you know we like

in London y'all gotta come back do a show in New York tonight then we gonna go to Africa you know whatever else and y'all gonna sit with Mandela and then it was like holy man like you know you just walking around like when you're young so it's like you get the money

they give you at the show and you just like alright whatever then you got the money that go to your accountant and you know whatever else so you know you just, you just, like, you have fun. But, you know, like I said, we, like, I was always like, all right, cool, we're going to figure out this business thing, you know, no matter how long it's taking. Everybody just found

a way to make us just insulated where, you know, we could kind of just do it all ourself and, you know, figure it out and not be, like, hurt for real. All right, we got more with Drew here. When we come back, keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

We have Drew Hill in the building. Charlamagne? Now, when it came to Cisco wanting to go solo. I did not want to go solo. So the label pushed that? No, they didn't want it either. Nobody really wanted it. I always wanted to be the best Jodeci

That we could be Or Jodeci slash Boyz II Men I mean if you kind of merge Boyz II Men and Jodeci I feel like you kind of get I guess kind of what Drew Hill is We got like a little bit of that rough sound But then we still could sing songs

That Jodeci would never sing But Boyz II Men maybe could sing and vice versa So that was all That's what he tells y'all. He tells y'all he never wanted to go solo. I mean, look, I'm going to let him tell his story, and then I'll culminate it into what made him lose. I never wanted to be solo.

If that was, if I had opportunities to be a solo artist before we even decided we wanted to be a group. So how'd it happen then? You know, Luke has his version of it. Let's hear yours first. Y'all not gonna fight in here, right? No. No, no, no.

It'd be good to ring. No, no. Look, look, look. The reality of it is this. Like, if you take out all the emotion in it, we're done the Wild Wild West. And, you know,

it was like, it was like, you know. In hindsight, it probably sold a lot. You got that platinum plaque. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, it's like we did the Still got that platinum plaque. That's all that matters. So, you know, it's like we did the record, you know, Highly Visible. We had the MTV Movie Awards.

MTV went to Cisco during the awards, and he came to me. He was like, look, man, MTV just said they want to give me a show, and I don't know what it's going to be about. They don't even know the name of it. And, you know, in that moment, it's kind of like you could be a hater and say, no, man, we got to do the group, group. And, you know, in that moment it's kind of like, you could be a hater and say, no, man, we gotta do the group, cause the group, group, group. Or you could be like, but man, up to this point, I done produced

all the records that we did internally, and I can do this, or I can do that. So, you know, we took this stance of, okay, well, this is gonna be a time where everybody gets a chance to go out and figure out what they wanna do and learn something else and explore some other stuff, cause it's not like they just left us out there like we all had deals we are production deals and label deals and artist deals and Def Jam you know had done the Rush Hour record with us

so they are they were already acclimated with us but they never got to do an album so it was like right at the time for us to do an album with them. And then all of a sudden, Woody leaves. So they give us all this stuff and we can't deliver what they paid for, for real. So it was just like, well, what do you do? So then the opportunity comes and it's like, okay, this is something that's still keeping everybody's attention. You know, while I'm in the building, you know, producing and, you know, learning this and jazz is bringing people in or whatever. So it's like people always like to try to look at it like, oh, man, well, Cisco went solo when y'all was just like home, you know, doing whatever. But, you know, it was really just like, all right, cool. This is a time where if you so let's say you do got a bad attitude about it. It's like, well, this is the time where I show that I could do something, too.

And that's really what it comes down to. You know what I'm saying? Like, you know, that's And that's really what it comes down to. And be supportive of each other. You know what I'm saying? Like, you know, that's just what it is. Well, you could be a guy online all day long or wherever else talking about, oh, man, and he destroyed my life. Well, first of all, would he quit the group in the middle

of the Wild Wild West video? Shoot. God told him to get away from this. I don't know. No, no, let me tell you what. If you look at the video, you'll see four of us in the beginning. And then. No don't know. No, no. Let me tell you what. If you look at the video, you'll see four of us in the beginning.

And then. No. And then. And you have to understand that, man, I've known Woody since elementary school. Woody wanted to quit after the video. And Cisco said, if you're going to leave, you got to leave now. God damn. Because after Woody came in the trailer and played us a whole song and sang, yeah, it was a lot, man. And then we had to go, like, write and do a video with MTV.

So they sitting there like, where the other guy at? And it's like. Right. Dude, that's why if you look at the video, man, like, we got our hats pulled all the way down. It was just, it was rough. It was crazy. Why did he want to leave in that moment?

I mean, I don't know, man. We had incidents. You know what? We had an You know what we had? opening for us and opening up You know what, we had an incident that happened aside from, Woody just came from a straight gospel background.

Like, his mother and them did, like, the church conventions where, you know, you out there with a hundred choirs and everything. And we had an incident

where that was the first time that I knew that it was real. Like, this dude is ready to go. And we were overseas doing a show, and we got, like, in the fight. And guys that were in the fight

were with the people who were doing security. One of the guys running the security booth locked the gate and get the gun out and start shooting at our van. So they, like, shoot the back window out. The, you know, merchant lady we had would just go open up the gate. We got out of there. Dude come to the hotel. He back window out. The, you know, Merchant Lady we had would just go open up the gate. We got out there.

Dude come to the hotel. He chasing our band around the, you know, lobby of the hotel with the gun. Security dudes hitting dudes in the face with walkie-talkies

and all this stuff. And it was like right and they was like, hey, buddy, go to that room. And, you know, we let you in. And it was like

right in that moment, like that next day, it was like, oh, no. Yeah. They put that gun to the window. You heard? Where was y'all at? We was in Paris. We was in no yeah they put that gun to the window you heard where was y'all at we was in paris he's in paris they put the into the window right to the window he pulled the trick like it was like in slow motion i could hear it go yeah it was crazy the window

explodes well first of all what happened for y'all to get into this kind of all right so all right so here go the funny part that that part ain't funny. So here go the funny part. Wait, that was funny about that. That point bank window, that point bank bullet, this window blew out. The window on that side blew out. We never found the bullet and nobody got it. The reason why it all started was because a dude wanted a picture for his girlfriend. With the group?

Y'all told him no. No, it wasn't like that. No, no, no. What happened was everybody had their families and girlfriends there and fiancés, whatever was going on at the time. So our boy was like, look, give him a minute. They just came off stage.

They changing. So five minutes go past. He's like, man, I need this picture man. Like, cool. So then 10 minutes go past. He's like, man, give me the money. And this dude was one of them dudes that, like, he ain't going to think about nothing.

He, like, already just ready to go off. Next thing you know, Kevin fighting. Next thing you know, they, like, get up out of here. They try to make a hole for us to get out. Me and Kevin. Look, me and Jen. For the record. Me and Jen trying to bust off the room to go fight.

They won't let us. You know, our security guard, Rich, you know, hitting dudes with our other security guard. It was, I mean, it was crazy.

We appreciate you guys for stopping through. We appreciate y'all, man. Thank you for bringing that Christmas album. Definitely, definitely. Yes, yes. Y'all gotta check that out.

Beautiful for the holidays. It's pretty nice. I mean, sorry we didn't fight, man. We, you know, we just, we just. You know what I'm saying? That's why they had to have y sorry Wayne fight man. We you know Yeah, I guess it's right when we starting something

I'm sorry Man shout out the jagged edge Shout out to Jagged Edge. And shout out to us, man. We all love you. They're 112. But I mean, I was speaking on, you know. But yeah, man, it's all love. Who's the best out of all three of y'all? Well, who's the best out of all three? Man, look.

There we go. We're igniting it. He acting like your production didn't contribute to some of that. Oh, no, we ain't saying that. No, no, no. No, look, look, look. Look, this is what it come down to. Because we could go through that all day long,

and everybody could say what they want to say, and this ain't no shot to nobody. This is just how we do. Like, we used to battle sing at home. Like, you battle rap, you battle sing. It's like, it's all two people. Now, we could do everything on stage with the music and the lights and, you know, whatever else, but

what it come down to is what happens when the mics ain't working and you guys still keep going. Like, we show love everywhere we go. So once we don't feel that, then you gonna know we don't feel that because we ain't high-fiving and walking around and, you know, whatever. It's like we gonna walk right past you, be in the room,

and that's gonna be the beginning and the end of it. So we show love to the people who show love to us. If you don't show us no love, then we don't feel no reason to walk right past you, be in the room, and that's going to be the beginning and end of it. So we show love to the people who show love to us. If you don't show us no love, then we don't feel no reason to walk around acting like we 14 years old when we wearing boxers. Because when I lay you down, I can hear your body speak, telling me to kiss you till your knees get weak all night.

Whoop-de-na-da, whoop-de, da, da, whoop, da, da, da. I was just doing my part. Sound great. Thanks, man. Hey, look, but that's the thing, though, man. That's the way I like when people, like, because people ask us all the time. It's like, so y'all just still sing. What I mean, like, I've been doing this since I was 14 years old.

But, you know, some people are gifted and some people aren't. I think that's what people don't realize. But that's why I was saying, like, we've been doing this since I was 14 years old. But, you know, some people are gifted and some people aren't. I think that's what people don't realize. But that's why I was saying, like, we got, they taught us. They said, we're going to teach you how to be here forever. And that's what they did. That's why they made us do push-ups and sit-ups while we were singing the songs and running around and wouldn't let us eat and rehearsing for eight hours because this is what we were supposed to do.

So we're just going to keep doing it as long as we got the opportunity. It's also good to have hits. Yeah. There you have it. We have several. long as we got the opportunity. It's also good to have hits. Yeah. There you have it. We have several. Well, there you have it. It's Drew Hill. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. All right, listen, man. Charlemagne Tha God here. I'm on vacation until 2018. I don't give a damn what y'all think about that because I deserve it.

Now, The Breakfast Club is in 80-plus markets in 150 countries, so we have a lot of new listeners who probably don't even know who Charlemagne Tha God is. So, use my time off to catch up on some of my past work. Okay? Okay. If you're new here,

I do a segment every day called Donkey of the Day. Donkey as in jackass, and that's when I give someone the credit they deserve for being stupid. So, if you've never heard of it, this is new to you, but if you are a regular listener, then this is an oldie but goodie because it's the best of the donkey of the day. Donkey of the day goes to Young Kodak Black. Let the record show.

I enjoy Kodak Black's music. People like to say Young Kodak is a mumble rapper. I don't agree. I think he actually be snapping, but that's just my opinion. But the reason Kodak Black is getting donkey of the day is because Kodak Black told social media what kind of woman he prefers. Let's hear it. Kiki Palmer, she's great.

I'll dabble, but you know what I'm saying? I don't really like black girls like that. So I'm sort of kind of. Now, when I heard that, I knew it wouldn't go over well, but I did understand what he meant. He was trying to say he don't like dark-skinned girls, but instead he said black girls. See, when you say dark-skinned girls, you're talking complexion. That's a preference. When you're talking black girls, you're talking a whole race.

That's also a preference. But if it's one entity you don't want no drama with in this era, it's black women. You don't want those problems. You don't know what true slander is on social media until you piss off a group of black women, and then they swarm like the Wu-Tang Killer bees on your black ass. Are you dumb? Now, when Kodak Black got attacked, he didn't apologize. In fact, he doubled down on the comments, which I don't mind, by the way, because if you said it,

you said it. OK, if it needs some clarification, cool. If you feel like you need to explain it, more cool. But if that's what you said, then own it. And that's exactly what Kodak Black did when he went back on social media to address all the backlash he was receiving. Let's hear it. You ain't gonna be dissing me under my comments. I ain't going to play no comment on my shit. Whatever. You talking about black women. Bitch, you're going to sound like red bones.

I love black African-Americans, but I don't like black bitches. I like yellow hoes. So that's my preference. So mother f*** you. He is crazy, man. Why Kodak Black sound like lawn equipment? You ever been in the house? You know, you be in the house and you can tell people working on the lawn.

I ain't. Now, first and foremost, all the black women I know and talk to on a daily basis don't give a damn if Kodak Black is checking for them or not. Black women will be A-OK without Kodak Black desiring their love. But just because black women don't want you doesn't mean they won't get on social media and slander the hell out of you, OK? And you don't want that. The only way to escape the slander of black women is to mute the words ashy, problematic, and trash. If that don't work, then the only other option is to delete all your social media problematic and trash if that don't work then the only other option is to delete all your social media accounts but that would be lame right well that's exactly

what kodak black did yesterday and that's why he's getting donkier today because like i've been saying all morning in reference to various topics stand on your words i'm so sick of people not having the same energy at all times how you gonna go for one you have to see me when you come to the window so you better have the same energy you better have that same energy how do you go? For one, you have to see me when you come to the window, so you better have the same energy. You better have that same energy. How you go from sounding like this, right? Play the clip again. You ain't gonna be dissing me under my comment. Man, I ain't gonna leave no comment on my

s***. Whatever, you talking about black women. Bitch, f*** it. I like red bones. I love black African Americans, but I don't like black bitches. I like red bones. I love black African-Americans, but I don't like black bitches. I like yellow hoes. So that's my preference.

So mother f*** you. You're not a lawnmower. He's got to see the lawnmower over here. Hit the head just Kodak Black. Now, Kodak Black got on Twitter and said, I'm just on some whole other right now. Ain't got nothing to do with y'all. Then he tweeted, I could take criticism. I honestly don't give a F about the whole black, red, Chinese thing.

N-word, just in a situation. Hashtag SG. I don't know what that means. So I'm deactivating. Look, I don't have a problem with a person apologizing if they offend. As long as it's sincere, which most of the time they aren't. They're just trying to stop the backlash. I don't have a problem with a person doubling down on their rhetoric either

because I love when people have the same energy. You can be honest and wrong, but what I don't respect is when people run. Kodak, you ran. Okay, get on social media and take this L from black women, alright? I didn't delete my account when I pissed black women off. French Montana didn't delete his account when he pissed

black women off, so you can't delete yours either, alright? Please give young Kodak Black the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw. French Montana didn't delete his account when he pissed black women off, so you can't delete yours either. All right? Please give young Kodak Black the biggest hee-haw. Goodness gracious. Okay, update, update. Damn, I hate when I got to give out donkeys and then have to do updates, but the update is Kodak Black has reactivated his social media accounts. I don't think that makes the donkey null and void, though, because he did delete it, so it still stands.

And Kodak Black still sounds like lawn equipment when he talks. I keep trying to tell y'all. I don't tell jokes makes the donkey null and void, though, because he did delete it, so it still stands. And Kodak Black still sounds like lawn equipment when he talks. I keep trying to tell y'all. I don't tell jokes. I tell the truth. I'm not joking when I say Kodak Black sounds like a weed whacker. Have you ever been in a neighborhood and heard the lawn equipment going somewhere? You know the sound. It sounds like this.

Now, this is actually Kodak Black. Whatever. I don't know what you talking about, Black woman. Now, let's see how they sound together. I don't know what you talking about, Black woman. Weed Whacker Black. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, We Are The Breakfast Club.

It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? DJ, let it in, let it be. What's up, dude? Hey, so I'm Steve from Brockton, Massachusetts. Hey, Steve from Massachusetts. Now, what's your question? What's up?

Yee, my beautiful goddess. So listen, I've been in a relationship for like two years with this dude, and he's white. I'm black. And we started watching this Netflix documentary called Dear White People. Yes. Lord, Uncle Shala. And so one of the episodes, she's like telling her white boyfriend, dude, you can't say the N-word.

And I'm trying to tell my dude, like, you cannot say the N-word. And he's like, I'm obviously not racist. This is good. We've been together for a long time. This is good. And I'm like, okay, let me bring you to Jesus real quick. Come to the front of the congregation because we got some words for you. I get it, though. So wait, so he's trying to say the N-word to you?

In bed he can say it, though, right? Did he say it in bed? No, we don't play that. Nope. Why does he want to say it so badly? He wants to be able to say it in conversation and music. And I'm like, no, you can't say it. It's a song.

You just need to hum quietly to yourself. Now, if he's a bottom and when you put it in, he goes, That's fine. You got to let that go. You got to let that ride go. You got to let that one go. You got to let that go. No, you don't.

Am I ruining the whole mood? In any relationship, you know that both men are taking it just as much as they're giving it. Exactly. All right, but I'm going to say this. Would he say that in front of other people besides you? I've seen him say it to his friends in conversation. And I'm like, he'll say these little N-words. And I'm like, you can't.

No. First of all, your friend is no longer. That's not a good friend because he doesn't understand the context and don't use that word because you do understand the context. And that's very offensive and he should understand that if he loves you and cares about you and something offends you and it's something as small as not saying

a word that is offensive throughout history and gives you an awful feeling, he should respect that. What's so difficult? Yeah, I think it's just growing up in a small white town, you have to educate people. I had to put on Set It Off for him and teach him slowly about

the culture and what we do. Watch movies. Set It Off is about lesbians. Well, one lesbian. Exactly. You got to teach the culture. Is he being respectful, though, and not using the word? Oh, yeah, 100%. But he just doesn't understand.

He'll do it because he loves me, but he won't do it because he knows it's wrong. Well, listen, tell him he don't even got to understand it. It's offensive to you. It's offensive to a lot of people. And you are saving him an ass whooping. Right. Praise Lord. All right.

Well, that's good. At least he loves you enough. But maybe throughout history history he'll understand it I was going to say you should have him watch some documentaries so he can understand the power yeah we watched the 13th on Netflix Netflix is our shit

I mean our stuff and he still doesn't understand it he understands the historical context of it but he feels like in a modern society like how we want the equality of people not saying the F word in relation to homosexuals, then you have to use the word and also to desensitize people to it, which I respect.

But at the same time, there's certain words that carry anti-Semitic context or racial context. And guess what? If somebody that wasn't gay used the F word, that's offensive. Right. And it's the same kind of ass-whooping you're going to get. Like, don't play. Like, I'm in the gym every day. Don't play, that's offensive. Right, and it's the same kind of ass-whooping you're going to get. Don't play it. I'm in the gym every day. Don't play.

Let's go! Thank you so much, E. I love you so much. Love you on the real. Listen to you guys every morning. Can't believe I got through. Praise the Lord. Thank you for calling, man. Yes, have a good day. And you should definitely go buy him my book, Black Privilege Opportunity.

I read it. I read your book. It's amazing. Like, you did an exceptional job. You represented the culture. They should, instead of hiring Ryan Seacrest, freaking high whatever self, they need to have you up there with Kelly after the breakfast club bringing people to Jesus. I'll be fine, sir. You did an amazing job.

Salute to Ryan. I know. I'll be fine. You'll be good. You'll be good. Thank you for calling, man. And good luck with your problem, bro. Oh, thank you. Make sure he doesn't use that N-word. Oh, every day. You'll be good. You'll be good. Thank you for calling, man, and good luck with your problem, bro. Oh, thank you.

Make sure he doesn't use that N-word. Oh, all day. All right, bro. All day, every day. All day, every day. All right. All day, every day. Well, that was Ask Yee.

I mean, we help everybody. Yee, good job. Yeah, you know, we do our best. All right, Ask Yee, 800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, you could call her right now. The number's 800-585-1051. It's the breakfast slow. Come on. Good morning, everybody. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? This is Tiffany. How are you? Hey, Tiffany.

What's your question for Yee? I want to say I love you guys. Charlamagne, you're the best. You're awesome. Thank you, baby. I appreciate that. Okay, my question is, I've been married to my husband for eight years now. We have five beautiful kids together, but I am in love with my ex who I'm actually still seeing.

And actually, two of my kids are my exes, but my husband does not know. Lord. I told you you were going to be mad. My chest. If you're in love with your ex, why are you still married to your husband? I feel like I'm kind of obligated to stay with him because I've put him through a lot. You don't think you're putting him through a lot right now if he ever finds this out, when he does find this out?

Yeah, I know I am. So you feel like you're obligated to stay with him and hurt him even more and put him through more? Let that man go. Let him live his life and potentially find love in somebody who wants to be with him and be faithful to him. Why are you keeping him hostage while you do your thing? Well, he kind of knows that I am seeing this individual. Okay, don't say he kind of knows.

Does he know? Okay. Like I said, he knows that I am still kind of dealing with this person. But this whole thing, he doesn't know about the kids, about who the kids are being hit. That's a huge deal. That's affecting your family. That's going to affect your children also.

They need to know who their real father is. He needs to know how he's raising another man's kids. Just imagine the effect that it's going to have on your whole entire family, the other children, everyone. I know. Listen, it's a foul situation. I think the best thing that you can do is you have to get out of your relationship.

Let your husband. It's not fair to him for you to be doing the things that you're doing to him. You are destroying him. He needs to rather us stay together until the kids get older. Do you think that he would rather that when he finds out those two kids aren't his?

Probably not. Stop being selfish. I'd love to call him and tell him how selfish you are. Let him find somebody that will be with him and not be hiding things and not be secretive and not run around behind his back as somebody who's not in love with someone else. Tell him, Yee.

Why you want to be so deceitful? Why you guys want to make this so complicated? Let him, listen, if you do anything for him, because you feel bad about how you did him wrong in the past, if you do anything for him because you feel bad about how you did him wrong in the past, if you do anything for him, let him go. Right. You're absolutely right. So what you going to do?

You going to tell the truth? I'm going to have to because this lands very heavily on me. And you're going to have to for the sake of your kids, too. Their kids need to know who the father is. You need to know the history of the family and everything. Yeah, man. Just in case there's anything potentially that could go wrong. I don't understand. You need to know who the father is. You need to know the history of the family and everything. Yeah, man. Just in case there's anything potentially that could go wrong. I don't understand.

You need to know all of those things. Is your ex going to step up and handle it? Oh, he's very aware of the situation, and he wants to be a major part of their life. Okay. Tell the truth, boo. This is so messy. Only thing you can do is do that man a favor and let him go.

Let him find real love with somebody who loves him back. And somebody that's not going to lie to him and make things so complicated. Acting like you're somebody else gets him frustrated, okay? Listen, it's one thing to cheat, but she done had two kids. Yes, you got two whole kids. That's something that for the kids, imagine how they'll be affected by this later on. Yeah, I know. Do it for your kids.

You ain't going to do it. I am, I am. All right. Do it now. You got to check back in with us. Now's a good time to do it because you need to know who's going to be buying your kids Christmas presents. Now's a good time to get this out of the way, okay? Oh, gosh.

All right, thank you. All right, baby. Good luck. Boy, people be going through some crazy things in this world. All right, ask Yee. 800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, you could call her right now. The number's 800-585-1051.

Call her now. It's the Breakfast Slogan Morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Vine from Detroit.

What up, dog? What up, dog? Shout out to the D. What's good? What's your question for Yeezy? Nothing. Okay, well, I Vine from Detroit. What up, dog? What up, dog? Shout out to the D. What's good? What's your question for Yeezy? Nothing. Okay, well, I'm from Detroit. My baby daddy, he's from Bedstock, Brooklyn.

That's where I live. Okay, but I don't like that right now because I was trying to find him up in Atlanta City or whatever. We was making our money or whatever. And then this a**hole is up with my money, put that in Kato's, and we put that in Kato's with another chick. Wait, slow down, slow down, slow down. So you guys were in Atlantic City. Y'all was making money together. What were you guys doing?

Okay, so you're an escort, a prostitute? Okay. So he's a... Cost two? Yeah, well, something like that. I was just getting money. We was doing everything to get money, basically. You know? I like money or whatever. So he's a pimp. But at the end, basically, and at the end, well, he do a little bit of everything. I was just saying, like, he was making money again, and I was making money, too. He went to Turkey and take us where it was convenient and told me I was in a way. I'm in a way.

So I did, and I robbed his hand. So wait, hold on, hold on. You robbed your pimp? I robbed my baby daddy now. He's my baby daddy. What'd you take? What'd you take? I took two Rolex watches. I took a Chanel bag. I took whatever I took. His other baby mama

took the fake. We was climbing up the damn condo, and the neighbors didn't say nothing because they saw me always in and out. What size are those Rolexes? Shut up, Envy. I'm sorry. Go ahead. So you robbed your baby daddy along with his other baby mom? Yeah.

And she don't like me because I caught her watching to give her half up. It's just the point that he want me to move out there. How can I life together? You know what I'm saying? I work a freaking lot. This is ghetto shenanigans. I'm going to school or whatever. And now he's telling me he ain't taking care of my son unless I pay him.

So he's not going to take care of the child you guys have together unless you pay him? Yep. Isn't that his job to kind of pay to take care of his own child? He said he can't take care of my son unless I take care of the family. And I told him, I said, no, I'm not about to do that. And then now it's tax season. He told me, I don't know how to manage money. And he's trying to get my money.

No, I'm not about to give you my money. Well, okay. I'm broke. There's a lot going on here. Yeah, he just bought a $60,000 truck. Talk about he's broke. Okay, I think you got to sort these things out. Number one, first and foremost, for the sake of your child, right?

Mm-hmm. You're not trying to be with him, are you? I don't know. You don't know. So in a way, you are. You want to get back together with him. I just want to get some money. Hey, boo, all money ain't good money, though, right?

So it's hard out here. I need some money, but... I'm just saying, don't you want to be there for your child and be a good example and a role model and make sure nothing happens to you and you don't go to jail or something worse happens? Yeah, that's the only thing. That's in the way.

You know what I'm saying? I was like, you know, I can't be doing all that because I can't get locked up. You know what I'm saying? I've never been to jail. And you will get locked up at some point. And I don't think jail's for me. I don't think it's for me. I'm sitting up here for eight hours.

I don't think it's for you either. Listen, in my own opinion, I think that you should be happy that you managed to get away from this man that was a pimp and doing everything else because that was just going to go down the wrong path for you. Listen, we all want to get money, right? But sometimes you've got to sacrifice

and go through periods of time that we're not making that much money so that later on in the future, in a couple of years from now, you can legitimately make good money. Well, I go to law school. I'm entering to law school the year after next. But he talking about that's in the way. Why are you even listening to what he has to say about what you want to do with your life? Because he telling me I need direction. It sounds like somebody that's advising you to not go to school

and not go to law school and saying that that's getting in the way is actually in the way himself. It sounds like in order for him to control you, he wants to make sure that you never make something more out of your life. Yeah, you're right. You're right. So I ain't going back out there. He's tricking.

Yeah, you definitely. Because everybody's telling me don't go back out there. All right. Well, I'm telling you don't go back out there. He's tryingpping. Yeah, you definitely Everybody telling me don't go back out there. Alright, well, I'm telling you don't go back out there. He's trying to persuade me and talking about we're going to get this nice ass house and all this stuff, but he's lying. I don't know. And you know he

messed with mad other chicks too. Oh, of course. And he's telling them the same thing. He brought me to his other chicks. He ain't no liar. He don't let me know what it is right then and there. He ain't about the secret code. Nothing. That's the only thing. And you're okay with that?

Yeah, I mean, I ain't been in on it. I don't like it. I'm going to tell you something right now. We always say, well, at least he ain't lied. Well, at least he kept it real. At least he's up front about it. These other dudes out here be lying. No, it's not at least that. It's not okay for somebody to do stuff like that to you just because they being honest about it.

Yeah, you're right. But, I mean, I prefer somebody to tell me the truth. I'd rather... How about you would rather somebody not do that? You got to expect better for yourself and have better expectations for yourself. How about be with somebody that doesn't do those things, that's not bringing you to other women's houses,

that's not cheating on you, that helps you take care of your family, that supports you and wants you to go to school and do better for not cheating on you, that helps you take care of your family, that supports you and wants you to go to school and do better for your life. Why can't you find somebody like that? Man, that's some square stuff, though. Like, these guys out here, they want you to give them money, and they ain't doing nothing for you.

At least, I mean... Listen, forget about them doing something for you. What about you doing something for yourself? I mean, I can do something for myself. I got my own shit. Alright, good. Well, you keep your own-ish and take care of your child and handle that. Instead of thinking about getting this fast money, think about securing

a bag for later on in the future. Having a foundation, having your education together so you can do and be anything you want to be in life. Yeah, you're right. I'm going to take that advice. Y'all have a good day. Alright, you too. I hope she don't call him right now. Alright, asky right. I'm going to take that advice. Y'all have a good day. All right, you too. I hope she don't call him right now. All right, Askey,

I don't even know what went on in that call, but if you deciphered it and figured it out, I'm happy. It was just madness. 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
