Collectively known as Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, USA. USA! yesterday because we weren't here. We were out. Yes, we were not at work. We were in New Orleans, though,
Starting point is 00:04:26 over the weekend. It feels like it was a long time ago. I went on Friday. It was Friday. We were celebrating your birthday. Is that your last birthday party?

Starting point is 00:04:58 Luther King day? It was great. I didn't do nothing. We played Monopoly. You know, my house plays Monopoly and when we play, it gets serious. Do y'all play with real money? No, we don't play with real money. Y'all seem like the type of family that'll play with real money. Nah, we don't play with real money.
Starting point is 00:05:10 We do play, but right now, my whole household is not speaking. Why? Nobody, because we start arguing about properties and trading. Really? On Monopoly? Absolutely. It gets serious. Nobody's talking.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Wow. Nobody. Not me, not Gia, not the kids. Nobody's just talking to each other. Like, it's that serious. Nobody's talking. Wow. Nobody. Not me, not Gear, not the kids. Nobody's just talking to each other. It's that serious. I was saluting to everybody in the 803 Columbia Soccer Line. That's where I was at for a day. We had 21 Savage perform for my man DJ B
Starting point is 00:05:35 Lord's Born Day Party at the music farm. Great event. Salute to my dude Chris. How was it? It's amazing. I love seeing the thing about guys like 21 Savage, the majority of the audience was 70% Caucasian. I think I've seen video, yeah. And I love seeing those little white people dance to, like, 21 Savage and sing the songs because it gives a glimpse of what America should be.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Right. You know? And it makes you wonder. It's like, you know what? I don't know if it's as crazy as it seems on social media sometimes. On social media the world seems like such a disgusting filthy racial place
Starting point is 00:06:12 and yes, racism is all through America, but sometimes you see those little events like that and you're reminded that things could definitely be better. Everybody don't think that way. But inauguration is actually coming up on Friday. Friday or Thursday? Friday.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Friday? Yeah, Friday. The 20th. Okay. How'd your Cowboys do over the weekend? Oh, you know, I heard Odell Beckham Jr. was spotted at Trump Towers. So I don't know if you want to go there right now. What does that have to do with the Cowboys?
Starting point is 00:06:38 That just sounded so crazy. I just don't know if I want to go there right now. Odell Beckham Jr. was going to be at the inauguration from what I heard. I don't know about that. And Eli Manning. Does he play for the Cowboys? Because that's what at the inauguration from what I heard. I don't know about that. And Eli Manning. Does he play for the Cowboys? Because that's what we were talking about. And Victor Cruz.
Starting point is 00:06:48 I was just asking about the Cowboys. Did the Cowboys play over the weekend? We did play over the weekend. We lost to the Green Bay Packers. That wasn't your prediction. Of course it wasn't. That's my football team. Why would I predict my team to lose?
Starting point is 00:06:59 I don't know. You had a very strong, strong prediction. Yes. And guess what? Next year, my Dallas Cowboys are going to see the World Cup. And that's what I've been saying for the past 21 years. And that's what I will continue to say because that's what diehard fans of their team do.
Starting point is 00:07:14 All right? Period. Donald Trump's a big fan of the Cowboys as well. I heard that. I heard he's about to buy the Detroit Lions. How do you feel about that? You're still going to support them after his son buys the Detroit Lions? Well, I don't know who's my team next year.
Starting point is 00:07:25 She doesn't know. She changes every year. Exactly. That's why we don't even respect that opinion over there. But, yes, my Dallas Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers. They played strong. They couldn't finish, though. No, it wasn't about how they finished.
Starting point is 00:07:37 It wasn't that. It was just some things you just can't control in a football game. And Aaron Rodgers is one of those things. He's amazing, isn't he? I wouldn't give him no props. He beat you up giant. I don't give him no props. But he beat you out, boy. That's what happened. Nah, he's going to be at Trump's inauguration. Anybody I got
Starting point is 00:07:52 problems with this week is going to be at Trump's inauguration, and they have been spotted in the lobby of Trump Towers with Donald Trump. I just want you to know that. Okay. So if you don't want no fake news out there this week, you better be easy. Well, we'll give you the real scores. Charlamagne's on his BS all week long. Scores when we come back. What else we talking in front page news? We are going to talk about Donald
Starting point is 00:08:08 Trump and what he did on Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday. He met with Odell Beckham Jr. on a boat. He definitely did. On the coast of Cuba. Definitely did. That would happen. Also, we'll talk about the Texas teacher who had sex almost every single day with a 13-year-old student. What is her sentence? And it's a crazy story.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Where do you want to go? Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Now, in football next week, the Patriots play the Steelers and the Falcons play the Packers. Y'all still watching football?
Starting point is 00:08:41 Y'all still watching that dangerous-ass sport? On Sunday, the Cowboys lost to the Packers by three. Don't remind me. Did you have to remind me? Mm-hmm. Okay. We're just updating in case people don't know. If they didn't know, they're ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:08:55 All right? What were you going to say? I'm about to say retarded, okay? But that wouldn't be the politically correct thing to say, so I caught myself. That's what you should do before you say something that could possibly offend someone. So I stopped myself and I said ridiculous instead of retarded. But that was the highest rated game. That game, you know, that game was rated higher than Game 7 of the World Series.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Yes. Well, it was very exciting. So a lot of people saw that game is what I'm saying. You did? Yeah, I did. I wasn't even watching it. No. I know.
Starting point is 00:09:21 What was going to happen? That was a good game. Now, let's talk about Trump. He met with Martin Luther King Jr.? Well, I don't know if that's possible, but he did meet with Martin Luther King Jr. the third. The third I met. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Wow. Wow. That third is important in this situation. Yeah, the third. The third. Donald Trump met with Martin Luther King Jr. He might be the president we need. That's amazing. He met with Martin Luther King Jr., then he might be the president we need. All right? Because that's amazing. He met with Martin Luther King III. Wow.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Thanks, Eddie. Whoa. Eddie, the producer, wrote that? Yeah, he definitely wrote that. All right. All Martin Luther's look around. The meeting was very constructive, according to Martin Luther King III. And he said the two discussed the importance of voting accessibility.
Starting point is 00:09:59 And he also did have some things to say. Because people are very upset about Donald Trump for his comments about John Lewis. All right. Which was crazy that he would say something like this. Now, if you don't know who John Lewis is, John Lewis is known for he's a civil rights activist. He actually marched alongside Martin Luther King Jr. And he was beaten and nearly killed by state troopers in Selma in 1965. OK. And he did say that John Lewis is all talk, talk, talk. According to Donald Trump, he said,
Starting point is 00:10:28 Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart, not to mention crime-infested, rather than falsely complaining about the election results. All talk, talk, talk, no action or results. Sad. How much more action and results? I think he was talking about in the present moment, talk, talk, no action or results, sad. How much more action and results? I think he was talking about in the present moment, though, right?
Starting point is 00:10:48 He wasn't talking about his work during the Civil Rights era. He was talking about like now. He was talking about his present moment, yeah. I think that a lot of people felt insulted by that. And after those comments, more than 40 Democratic lawmakers have said they will skip Donald Trump's inauguration. And people are boycotting that. And he was just upset because John Lewis said that he's not going
Starting point is 00:11:05 to inauguration on Friday. He said, you cannot be at home with something that you feel is wrong. And that's his opinion. John Lewis has that right. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:11:12 And Donald Trump got upset and that's why he took to Twitter again and had some negative things to say about a civil rights activist. Is anybody performing that we know of yet
Starting point is 00:11:20 or still nobody? Well, we know some people. I heard Victor Cruz is going salsa at the inauguration. Victor Cruz is definitely not going. That's a lie. From what I heard. Nobody that we salsa at the inauguration. Victor Cruz is definitely not going. That's a lie.
Starting point is 00:11:26 From what I heard. Nobody that we're friends with is performing. You know, they didn't even ask Kanye to perform. I heard they asked 2 Chainz to perform. That was random as hell. Now, you asked 2 Chainz, but you didn't ask Kanye? That seems so random. What would 2 Chainz perform at the inauguration?
Starting point is 00:11:40 I don't know. It's your birthday. I don't know. What they need to do, and I tweeted this out over the weekend, is they need to have YG and Nipsey Hussle perform one song and one song only. F Donald Trump. Via satellite for safety purposes. And then YG tweeted out that he would perform at the inauguration for $4 million.
Starting point is 00:11:57 I think we would be cool with that. If they paid YG $4 million and he went up there and did F Donald Trump with Dempsey Hussle, that would be amazing. It's not going to happen. That would be incredible. Let's talk about this Texas teacher. Alright, Alexandria Rivera. She's 25 years old. She was facing up to 30 years behind bars. She then pleaded guilty to aggravated sexual
Starting point is 00:12:17 assault of a child, and that is because she got pregnant by a 13-year-old student. She got sentenced, actually, to 10 years in prison. That's a crazy story. It was an 8th grade student that she had in her class. She was actually charged originally with continuous sexual assault. She had sex with this kid every day for nine months.
Starting point is 00:12:37 During that relationship, she told her neighbors that the boy was her brother. She actually even was cool with the child and his family. She moved the teenager into her house along with his father and pretended that she was dating the father. She also bought groceries
Starting point is 00:12:52 for the whole entire family. She paid the phone bills. So did the dad know or the dad was really thinking? Yes, the dad knew. The dad moved in with his son. They approved their relationship. How old is she?
Starting point is 00:13:00 How old is the kid? 13 years old. She's 25. Either they was having threesomes or the dad was really, really proud of his boy. Well, what about this? Look at my little 13-year-old boy knocking down the 25-year-old teacher. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:13:12 This is pedophile behavior. It is pedophile behavior. And she has a 6-year-old daughter who actually called the 13-year-old dad. Wow. I'm just shocked that the teacher at 25 was still using the he's my brother,
Starting point is 00:13:30 he's my brother excuse for having sex with this 13-year-old boy. How she get caught? Jesus. Other students told. Wow. See, that's what the little boy
Starting point is 00:13:37 get for running his mouth. Little boy should have kept his little mouth closed. Telling all his little friends, you know, I'm knocking off Miss Such-and-Such. I mean, that's just disgusting knowing that the family would be okay with that and ask for it. All the hating-ass little boys are like, hey, man, you know, I'm knocking off Miss Such-and-Such. I mean, that's just disgusting knowing that the family would be okay with that nasty.
Starting point is 00:13:46 All the hating-ass little boys. Hey, man, you know you're having sex with Miss Such-and-Such. They wasn't doing it because it was the right moral thing to do. They was hating. They was mad. I'm upset that they wasn't knocking the teacher off. It's just disgusting. That's front page news.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent call us right now. Maybe the cowboy's lost and you're sick. Maybe your Cowboys lost, you don't want to go to work. Envy, you do know your Giants lost in the first round of the playoffs. Yeah, I already had that pain last week. What a way to lose in that game over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:14:15 That was quite a heartbreaking loss. The only people that can talk about playoff football are the people whose team's still in the playoffs. Okay, slander from anybody whose team got eliminated and didn't make the playoffs is null and void. Well, it's going to happen. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Call us right now. Anyone can slander. Tell them why you're mad. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, yo, hey, yo, hey, yo. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:14:41 This is Matt Rapp. I'm going to tell you why, Matt. I'm going to tell you why I'm mad. I'm mad because I hung out in the club last night and there were so many good girls in there. Yo, for real, we don't need none of y'all good girls in the club. We need loose girls. This is Mad Rap. I'm going to tell you why, man. I'm going to tell you why I'm mad. I'm mad because I hung out in the club last night, and there was too many good girls in there. Yo, for real, we don't need none of y'all good girls in the club. We need loose girls. We need drunk girls.
Starting point is 00:14:49 We need sloppy girls. We need girls that's just going to call away. We don't need none of y'all nice girls in there. Go home. Go away. Talk about it, and tell me why you mad. Breakfast Club, for real. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:14:59 This is Olivia. Olivia, tell them why you mad, mama. I'm not actually mad, but it's actually a comment for Charlamagne. The comment he made about 21 Savage earlier and about white people dancing to it. I just want to let you know that that's not a huge sign that the world
Starting point is 00:15:16 is taking a turn because white people dance to 21 Savage. They've been dancing to our music since the beginning of time. It hasn't changed anything. Did you hear what I said? That's not what I said, baby. I said that sometimes you see those things and you realize
Starting point is 00:15:28 that everybody is not as bad and divisive and as racist. That's what I said. And she's saying dancing to music doesn't mean that
Starting point is 00:15:35 you're not racist. They could dance to it. You could have seen them dance to it and they could have gone right back home and got right back up to their old
Starting point is 00:15:44 got right back up to their old antics. Or they would go watch you perform but you still had to sleep in a different hotel. You weren't allowed to come through the front door. Y'all refuse to have any optimism whatsoever. I understand what she's saying. You can always see the bad in things, but sometimes can we
Starting point is 00:16:00 choose to see the good in things just a little bit? Well, she's fencing. She's saying stay woke. Hello, who's this? The woke people are most tired. Hey, tell them I'm mad. Yeah, I'm mad because of the thing that Charlamagne was talking about, the 13-year-old boy. How can anybody be mad at him?
Starting point is 00:16:16 Because everybody, I know when I was in middle school, there was like three, four teachers that I wanted to smash. Wait, now hold on. Nobody's mad at him. They're mad at a 25-year-old woman who is a teacher for not knowing better and for that family for allowing something like this to happen
Starting point is 00:16:31 and cosigning it. He's only 13. It's a double standard because it's wrong. It is wrong. It is wrong, absolutely. But if it was a girl, if it was a girl and a guy, we'd be like, oh, he's sick.
Starting point is 00:16:40 But when it's a girl and it's a little boy, you're like... When it's a woman. Damn, Pimpin'. Hello, who's this? This is Ariana from Dallas. sick, but when it's a girl and it's a little boy, you're like, damn, pimpin'. Hello, who's this? This is Ariana from Dallas. Hey, tell them where you're at. I'm with Solomon. I'm a little saucy about this Cowboys
Starting point is 00:16:54 loss, man. Envy, you petty as hell for trying to bring that up first. That's my job. We do sports during Front Page. Yeah, but he made it a point to make sure he said the Cowboys lost. As if everybody didn't watch that game. You were probably watching that game.
Starting point is 00:17:09 I was watching that game. I was so happy when they lost. I know you was watching that game because you secretly love us. Listen, they love to hate us, baby. They love to see us do bad. I know. It's okay. It's all right.
Starting point is 00:17:20 But I don't care because our team was 4-12 last year. And we finished the season 13-4. I know that's right, baby. Detail all day stands up. Well, great game, guys. Great game. We got a black quarterback. Can you say the same, Envy?
Starting point is 00:17:33 Huh? Anna, can you say the same, Envy? We got a black quarterback. Hello, who's this? Not anymore. What do you mean not anymore? Hello? Are you on drugs?
Starting point is 00:17:42 What game did you watch? That's his job forever. Hello? Forever. That is Dak's job for the next 10, 12 years. What do you mean not anymore? Hello? Are you on drugs? What game did you watch? That's his job forever. Hello? Forever. That is Dex's job for the next 10, 12 years. What do you mean not anymore? I need you to clap. What do you mean not anymore?
Starting point is 00:17:51 We'll see. What do you mean we'll see? Hold on. This is for our listeners. Can y'all talk to each other offline? You just gonna cheat on Robo? I'm done. That's how we do in this era.
Starting point is 00:18:00 When you up, we with you. When you down, we gone. It's for our listeners to tell us why they're mad. Hello? Yo. Yo, tell us why they're mad. Hello. Yo. Yo, tell them why you're mad. What is going on over there? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:09 They just apparently have a message. Tell them why you're mad. We're mad. That's all. Their own conversation. I'm happy. Only reason why you need to be mad is because the Packers won. That's it, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:18:18 That's the only reason, man. That's it. Okay. And Rodgers is going to be at Donald Trump's inauguration. I just want y'all to know that. You hate us. Tell them why you're mad. 800 is going to be at Donald Trump's inauguration. I just want y'all to know that. You hate her. Tell him why you mad. 800-585-1051 if you're upset.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Jordy Nelson look like a Trump supporter. Come on now. He does now. Come on now. Right now, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Black Beatles.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee. Drop on the Clues Bomb for Ray Shmurmer, too. I saw them on Ellen. They performed on Ellen. I'd love to see how far those two young men have come. Mm-hmm. Let's get to the rumors.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Let's talk TI. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor report. Rumor report. This is the rumor report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Well, TI released a series of Instagram videos where he is warning us about these meetings that people are having. He said, attention, be clear, there is an agenda behind all these meetings. I shall explain in detail. Be aware, be alert, or be bamboozled. And then he broke it down. Here's what he said. All you celebrities, black, minority, all of you, man, athletes, man, athletes man all of you look let me tell you something do not accept any invitation to have any meeting no matter how positive you think the
Starting point is 00:19:32 outcome may be without understanding man people have a very willy lynch agenda you being there being seen with them taking pictures and smiling and being positive. It may seem positive to you, but there's a hidden agenda, man. Do not go in there unless you have a strategy or you're with John Lewis or somebody who can represent us. I do agree with T.I. when he said don't go in there unless you're with John
Starting point is 00:19:58 Lewis, because I said the same thing. If they asked me to meet with Donald Trump, I wouldn't go if I couldn't bring the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. Well, T.I. goes on to explain what he means by this hidden agenda. They say how adamantly against him being president of the hip hop community and the young black people wars in America. So what do they do? They get Kanye West to come in.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Well, he's their representative. They listen to his music. They buy his shoes. They go see him in concert. Well, surely we take a picture with him. He smiles and says he's cool with it. They'll fall right in line. Black women.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Well, who speaks to the black women? Steve Harvey. Let's get him in here. He'll take a picture's cool with it. They'll fall right in line. Black women? Well, who speaks to the black women? Steve Harvey. Let's get him in here. He'll take a picture. He'll smile. He'll say it's cool. They'll fall right in line. Who else? They love football. Let's get Ray Lewis. Let's get Jim Brown. They're the heroes. Surely if they say they're cool with it.
Starting point is 00:20:36 And also on the week where you're going back and forth with Martin Luther King, home of one of the most prolific civil rights activists of our times, you're going to get Martin Luther King's son or Martin Luther King Day to come in there and meet with you. And y'all got to see this, man. Well, you know, throughout history, when it comes to the fight for civil rights, there's been engagers and resistors,
Starting point is 00:20:51 and some people choose to engage with government in a system that isn't treating them fairly, and some people choose to resist. Martin Luther King Jr. was more of an engager. Malcolm X was more of a resister. And neither one of their methods were wrong, especially when what they both want is justice for black people. But the problem I have is when resistors start slandering the engagers because we spending all this time infighting amongst each other.
Starting point is 00:21:09 And as long as we're not on the same page and organized, moving as one cohesive unit, we'll never get anywhere. Well, I guess what T.I. is saying is that it's a PR stunt. This is what we're going to do in order to appeal to a certain demographic of people. And we're going to. And I understand that too. Well, even if it's a PR stunt on their end, you know what I'm saying, as far as like our people, resistors have always called and gauged Uncle Tom's. Malcolm X used to call Martin Luther King Jr. and Uncle Tom, but imagine how much more Malcolm and Martin could have gotten done together.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Engagers and resistors need to be on the same page. As long as they got us infighting amongst each other, we'll never progress. All right, now Bishop Eddie Long has passed away. They said that he had a very aggressive form of cancer. He was 63 years old. So now there have been some statements. If you remember, there was a lawsuit that was settled from four young men who said that they were sexually assaulted by the bishop.
Starting point is 00:21:59 And they said, as much as we'd like to make a statement about the passing of Bishop Eddie Long, we've all decided to remain silent for now. They said our perspectives will be addressed in our book, Forsaken. That's F-O-U-R because it was four of them. Saken, which we hope to release soon. Yeah, you can't get mad. I saw people getting upset at people because they were saying things like to hell with Biddy Long.
Starting point is 00:22:18 What's his name? Bishop Eddie Long. Biddy Long yesterday on social media. You can't be mad at them, the man molested kids, right? Allegedly. Allegedly. We can't be mad at them, the man molested kids, right? Allegedly. Allegedly. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:28 But I'm surprised he's able to write a book because usually if you settle out, they stop him from writing books, being able to talk about any of that. I felt bad, too, though, because I was looking like, last picture I saw Eddie, I was thinking to myself, damn, he look like he about to die. Right. He actually had cancer. Lost a lot of weight.
Starting point is 00:22:39 All right. Hidden Figures is the number one movie in America for two weeks in a row. Nice. So that's you. So congratulations. I'm going to go see that movie because I'm so mad at myself that I haven't seen it yet. But I'm going to go this week and check it out. Also, let's discuss Tax Stone.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Now, we all know Tax Stone from his Tax Season podcast. He has been arrested. He got arrested over the weekend. They went and arrested him. He was at his aunt's house in Brooklyn. And that is for his connection with the shooting that happened at Irving Plaza right before a TI was scheduled to perform. Now, they said that he was wanted on a federal warrant, charging him with being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was also being sought by the NYPD in relation to the Irving Plaza shooting. So they said they did arrest him yesterday morning without incident. I'll drop on the clues, Barnes, for tax, though.
Starting point is 00:23:25 That's my guy. We get some rain today. They said there could possibly be some DNA, his DNA, on a gun, but I guess we'll find out today at 2 o'clock. Yeah, I don't know the whole situation, but that's my guy. I support tax, though, 100%. Okay, no matter what the situation is. That's my guy, you know, right or wrong.
Starting point is 00:23:42 All right, Kim Kardashian. They actually have released her police statement from Paris. She talked about hearing noises at the door like footsteps. She said she shouted who was there. No one answered. She said, I called at 2.56 a.m. my bodyguard. I saw through the sliding door two people coming, plus the man from the reception who was strapped.
Starting point is 00:24:00 She said the two men were hooded. The one had a ski mask. He had a cap and a jacket with police written on it. And she goes on to talk about what she was wearing. She had on a bathrobe. She said she two men were hooded. The one had a ski mask. He had a cap and a jacket with police written on it. And she goes on to talk about what she was wearing. She had on a bathrobe. She said she was naked underneath. Then we went in the room again. They pushed me on the bed.
Starting point is 00:24:11 They strapped me with plastic cables and tape on my hands. Then they taped my mouth and my legs. And then they carried her into the bathtub. She talked about how they asked where her ring was. She said it was placed on the bedside table. It cost $4 million. And she denied knowing where that was. But she said it was placed on the bedside table. It cost $4 million. And she denied knowing where that was. But she said it was on social media the day before that.
Starting point is 00:24:30 And she said he took out a weapon. I showed him the ring. He pointed the weapon toward me. He took the ring. He was wearing gloves. He asked me where the jewels and the money are. She said, I think they robbed me for $5 million. They didn't rob my cash.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And then she said they took her iPhone 6 and her BlackBerry. And then they left. She had cash on her, too? She said they didn't take her cash, though. Why said they took her iPhone 6 and her Blackberry and then they left. She had cash on her too? They didn't take her cash though. Why would they take the iPhone? See, everybody's priorities is all messed up. See, these phones got y'all so stupid. You take the iPhone but not the cash. Well, they took the phone so she couldn't call anybody. But yeah, but if you take the phone
Starting point is 00:24:55 and they hit the freaking iPhone located then they can find your location. They probably tossed that phone as soon as they got outside. I wouldn't even risk that. Just take the money. Well, they probably just didn't want her to use the phone right away. They probably smashed it outside. They probably tossed that phone so fast. All right.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right. When we come back. She got kicked off on the private flight. That was Drake with Control. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Let's get into some front page news. Now, in sports this weekend, the Patriots will play the Steelers. The Falcons will play the Packers. And yes, the Cowboys lost to the Packers last Sunday. It wasn't last Sunday. What Sunday was it? I don't know what Sunday it was. I forgot. It was all a blur. They lost by three.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Alright. It happens. How did it make you feel? You know, it's crazy. I wasn't as hurt as I thought I would be, only because I know our future is so bright. This wasn't a typical Dallas Cowboys loss. Dak and Zeke and Dez, they big time, man.
Starting point is 00:25:53 They're gamers. So I don't know. I wasn't as hurt as I thought I would be. It was an edge of the seat type of game, though. It was a great game. I thought it was going to go into overtime. It should have went into overtime. See what it is, man. What y'all don't realize is this, man. Oh, boy. Donald Trump is a Green Bay Packers fan, right?
Starting point is 00:26:10 And they got this little thing in the ball. So if you notice, when he kicked the ball, he was about to miss that field goal, but they hit that little remote control, and it brought it right back in between. Oh, that's what happened? That's the story you're going with? The field goal thing, yep. That's the story you're going with? And if you notice, as soon as they hit the field goal, Aaron Rodgers hit up the Hail Trump sign.
Starting point is 00:26:27 As soon as he did it. The same Hail Hitler, Hail Trump sign, Aaron Rodgers threw it right up in the air. I don't know if y'all realize that. Now let's talk about Trump. Trump had a meeting with Martin Luther King III. Yes, he did. And according to Donald Trump, he said, you know, he wanted to celebrate all of the many wonderful things that Martin Luther King stood for. Now, there was a lot of controversy over the weekend with Donald Trump saying some negative things about John Lewis, about Congressman John Lewis. He said he should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart, not to mention crime infested, rather than falsely complaining about the election results.
Starting point is 00:27:01 All talk, talk, talk, no action or results. Sad. And a lot of people were upset about that because they look at Congressman John Lewis as a civil rights leader and all that he's done in the past and all that he does now. So some people felt like that was wrong. More than 40 Democratic lawmakers are now skipping Donald Trump's inauguration,
Starting point is 00:27:18 which is going to happen on Friday. All right. Now let's talk about this teacher having sex with a teen. Man, now this was a crazy story. And I know we've been talking about this all morning. But this went down in Texas. And this teacher had sex with a 13-year-old.
Starting point is 00:27:32 She's 25 years old. And the parents actually condoned it. Now the crazy thing is the dad was living in the house with the teacher and his son. And she was buying all the groceries. She told the neighbor that that was her little brother. She actually got pregnant by the student, and they were having sex every single day for about nine months. She had an abortion, though, so
Starting point is 00:27:52 now she is going to get 10 years in jail. She was facing up to 30. Wow. All right. Well, that's front page news. When you say the parents were condoning it, how were they condoning it? The father was there living with the son, pretending to be her boyfriend, even though she was dating the son. And she has a six-year-old daughter who called the 13-year-old
Starting point is 00:28:08 dad. Jesus Christ. Well, the six-year-old don't know no better. But the father probably was just looking for free room and board. That's all. Clearly, that's what that was. The father was trying to get up on his feet. The father clearly was pimping his son. Yeah, let me pimp my child out. He was clearly pimping his son. He was getting
Starting point is 00:28:24 his Chris Jenner. Alexandria Barrett is now in jail. Okay. That was Notorious B.I.G. with Big Papa. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we talked about Donald Trump meeting with Martin Luther King III over the weekend. And T.I. was pretty upset.
Starting point is 00:28:45 He had this to say. All you celebrities, black, minority, all of you, man, athletes, man, all of you, look, let me tell you something. Do not accept any invitation to have any meeting, no matter how positive you think the outcome may be. What I understand, man, people have a very Willie Lynch agenda. You being there, being seen with them, taking pictures and smiling and being positive, it may seem positive to you, but there's a hidden agenda, man. Do not go in there unless you have a strategy or you're with John
Starting point is 00:29:17 Lewis or somebody who can represent us. And then T.I. went on and said this. They say how adamantly against him being president of the hip hop community and the young black people wars in America. So what do they do? They get Kanye West to come in. Well, he's their representative. They listen to his music. They buy his shoes. They go see him in concert.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Well, surely if we take a picture with him, he smiles and says he's cool with it. They'll fall right in line. Black women? Well, who speaks to the black women? Steve Harvey. Let's get him in here. He'll take a picture.
Starting point is 00:29:40 He'll smile. He'll say it's cool. They'll fall right in line. Who else? They love football. Let's get Ray Lewis. Let's get Jim Brown. They're with the heroes.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Surely if they say they cool with it. And also on the week where you're going back and forth with Martin Luther King, homeboy, one of the most prolific civil rights activists of our times, you're going to get Martin Luther King's son or Martin Luther King Day to come in there and meet with you. And y'all got to see this, man. So the question is, 800-585-1051, how do you feel with some of your favorite celebrities meeting with Donald
Starting point is 00:30:07 Trump? Now, people were upset with Steve Harvey and he actually posted a statement on his Twitter and he said, our president asked that Obama ask all of us sit down and talk to one another in order to move our country forward. He definitely did. The transition teams on both sides asked me to meet and I'm glad I did. He said, I walked away feeling like I just
Starting point is 00:30:24 talked with a man who genuinely wants to make a difference in this area. I felt that something really great could come out of this. I don't really see anything wrong with meeting with Donald Trump, especially Martin Luther King III. Especially, he said to Steve Harvey. We have to make some kind of change.
Starting point is 00:30:39 We can't ignore the man for the next four years. He is the president and if we want something to happen, we have to tell him what we want to happen. Now, I can't speak for Kanye West. I can't speak for Ray Lewis. But there's certain black people who should have enough cachet in the black community that you know these brothers care. Jim Brown, Steve Harvey, Martin Luther King Jr. III. If they choose to engage, let them engage.
Starting point is 00:31:02 See, throughout history, it's always been about it's always been about engagers and resistors. It's been this way since the beginning of the civil rights struggle. It was people who choose to engage and people who choose to resist. Neither method is wrong. But we as black people have to stop infighting amongst each other about who's engaging. Because all it does is keep us off the same page. And as long as we're arguing amongst each other, how will we ever have a plan of action to go against the real enemy? Like, Malcolm X was a resistor.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Martin Luther King Jr. was an engager. Malcolm X used to call Martin Luther King Jr. an Uncle Tom because of the fact that he chose to engage. But imagine how much those two could have accomplished together. It doesn't matter what your method is as long as your end result is the same. They both wanted the best for black people. That's all. It's about at the end of the day, right? Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:31:43 This is Shay from Flatbush. Hey, Shay from Flatbush. Shout out to Flatbush. That's all, it's about at the end of the day, right? Hello, who's this? This is Shay from Flatbush. Hey, Shay from Flatbush. Shout out to Flatbush, that's where I'm from. Nah, but I definitely agree with T.I. though. I feel like Trump is trying to do stuff to make us feel comfortable with what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:31:56 So he's trying to get influential and people that, you know, we see a lot of to get on board with him so he could, so he could feel, you know. So he could be like, oh, okay, Steve Harvey's cool with him, so he can't
Starting point is 00:32:08 be that bad. I don't feel bad. I applaud the people who's not going to that inauguration and who's not going to watch it because I'm not watching that s***. I mean, sorry, I'm not watching that s***. That's good. Whether we watch it or not, he's still going to become the next president of the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:32:23 For the next four years, he's the man with the power. Now, I will say, I can understand people who don't want to engage with Donald Trump either, though. That man was very divisive and very disgusting. He said a lot of inflammatory things his whole life. For the past 18 months. So, I mean, you know, one meeting isn't going to change my feelings on Donald Trump. One thing I do agree with T.I. on, though, if I was to go meet with Donald Trump, you got to go bring an OG you, like the Honorable Minister Louis
Starting point is 00:32:45 Frasca. Same way he said you should bring somebody like John Lewis. That was Bryson Tiller with Exchange. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now we're taking your calls. 800-585-1051. T.I., he made a statement, upset
Starting point is 00:33:02 about some of these celebrities going to meet with Donald Trump. He thinks it's a photo op for Trump trying to just encourage African-American and black people and minorities to say, hey, Donald Trump is OK. He's a cool type of guy. I think it's needed. I think that people do need to meet with Donald Trump. We have to figure out what we need to do. He is the president for the next four years. We can't take that back as much as we might hate it. We have to do something about it. I understand people who don't want to meet with Trump. I understand people who do want to meet with Trump because that's just the way things have been since the beginning of time. I keep telling y'all that.
Starting point is 00:33:31 We've always had engages. We've always had resistors. Some people choose to engage with government in a system that isn't treating them fairly and some people choose to resist. Neither method is wrong. What we have to stop doing amongst each other though is infighting. Don't start slandering the people who choose to engage just because
Starting point is 00:33:48 you choose to resist, because as long as we're not on the same page, they can keep manipulating us and keep running circles around us 100 miles per hour. Period. Hello, who's this? Andrew, what's good, man? It's Ken. Ken, what's up? Andrew, I just want to tell you, you're beautiful
Starting point is 00:34:04 first and foremost. Thank you. You're doing really beautiful. Yeah, I'm with T.I. With T.I. I got a lot for T.I. to do on that. We can't forget all the things that Donald Trump has said and done that have been very
Starting point is 00:34:16 disgusting, inflammatory, very divisive, very racist, and all of that. And just meeting with him, I can't co-sign somebody coming out and say, hey, he's not so bad after all. Yeah, I can't co-sign somebody coming out and say, hey, he's not so bad after all. Yeah, I agree with that. I mean, you know, that man had a campaign for 18 months where he was disgusting and divisive. Like, one meeting should not change your opinion on that. Like, that's just, that's a little bit much. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:34:36 Hi, good morning. This is Liza. Hey, Liza. We're talking meeting with Donald Trump. Some of the celebrities are. What do you think about it? Well, I think it's only behooved us as a group of, you know, for us to meet with him. I think it's only natural that we would meet with him.
Starting point is 00:34:47 I mean, even when you're doing more than the bargaining table. I do question, however, the people that he's met. I feel somewhere along he's, you know, he's not challenging himself. He should meet with people that, you know, he knows are not trusted to him. People that he knows don't, meaning he want to deal with him, you know, to say, you know, well, you know, let's come to the bargaining table. This is what I want to offer. I think that's more challenging.
Starting point is 00:35:08 You bring up a great point. You bring up, like he should, Donald should be extending the olive branch. The reason Donald hasn't met with any of those people who are more challenging to him is because those people who are more challenging to him probably don't want to meet with him. So he's meeting with those who want to meet with him. Yeah, but we don't know if he's actually attempting or trying to make those meetings happen. But you know, it's funny. I had a conversation with my daughter, a real quick conversation. And one of the things that I noticed is Donald Trump has been around for a while.
Starting point is 00:35:31 A lot of these people that he's met, he's known in the past. And unfortunately, this is just my intuition. I feel that people come, he knows that they have a price. So people that he met before, it might be just like, you know what? Y'all people might think that they are great, but these people have a price. That's just my intuition. Now, we gotta stop saying that. But that's her intuition. When you say people have a price, who is he paying?
Starting point is 00:35:52 What is he paying for? They've been in business with each other before. For example, let's say we have Kanye. He has a vested interest in this. When you look at Steve Harvey, I don't consider those people people that Steve Almighty have.
Starting point is 00:36:07 And I'm not saying that Steve Harvey does not have good intentions, but, you know, I mean, these are celebrities, you know, and they have their time. It's more consuming their time. How much time have they played with the community, you know? And I know Steve Harvey has things that he's done for the community, but this is a
Starting point is 00:36:23 different level. This is on a greater level. Right. So you're saying this could benefit him? Exactly. I mean, I look at it overall, and I think about it, and I think, you know what, I'm not sure if these people exactly, you know, speak on my behalf. I can tell you for now, for some of them, I can tell you they haven't.
Starting point is 00:36:38 And I'm not degrading MLK's family, but they have questionable views that they've done in the past that I've questioned myself. All right. I completely understand what she's saying. Absolutely. Alright, well, what's the moral of the story, guys? The moral of the story is, like I said, throughout the beginning of time, it's been
Starting point is 00:36:52 engages and it's been resisted. Some people choose to engage with government and a system that isn't treating us fairly, and some people choose to resist. Neither one of us are wrong in our methods, especially if all we want at the end of the day is the betterment of black people. What we have to do amongst each other is
Starting point is 00:37:07 stop the infighting. If somebody chooses to engage, don't slander them. Let's see what their intentions are. Let's see what they talk to Donald Trump about, and then figure it out. We have to be on the same page. But it might make you look at people differently sometimes. That's ridiculous. That's what I'm saying. We shouldn't do that.
Starting point is 00:37:24 All that does is keep us off the same page. As long as we're off the same page, then they can easily manipulate us. Because it seems like if you don't agree with Donald Trump, he goes crazy on his Twitter about you. This is bigger than Trump to me, man. This is as simple as us being on the same
Starting point is 00:37:40 page. The engagers and resistors have to be on the same page. Period. As long as they keep us arguing and infighting, we'll never accomplish nothing. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Steve Harvey. Listen up. It's just in.
Starting point is 00:37:55 All the gossip. The rumor report. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Well, we told you about Steve Harvey going to sit down with Donald Trump. Some people were upset about it. And here is what Steve Harvey said after that meeting. He's introduced me to Ben Carson, who is now the new head of housing for urban development.
Starting point is 00:38:17 And we're going to team up and see if we can bring about some positive change in the inner cities, which I felt was my only agenda. And he agreed, and he wants to do something. And he realizes that he needs some allies in that department, and he seemed really sincere about it. I have no idea to doubt that was Steve Harvey's intention, especially when Steve Harvey has done that historically through our time. Steve Harvey constantly has given back to the community.
Starting point is 00:38:44 Well, here's what D.L. Hughley had to say about Steve Harvey in response to all of this. It amazes me that to convince black people that Donald Trump cares about them, he takes pictures with celebrities. It's amazing to me. You know why you have a comedian, a rapper, and a football player out to talk about the concerns of the community?
Starting point is 00:39:01 Because that's the positions you're used to seeing us in. You'd rather see us run the ball than run the country. I ain't going to never forget what you said about this man and how you got where you are. Some people might, but I never will. I'll never forget how you denigrated his family. I'll never forget how you stoked fears. F*** you now and f*** you forever.
Starting point is 00:39:17 He was talking about President Obama and him saying that President Obama didn't have a birth certificate and wasn't born here. Yeah, I agree with a lot of what D.L. Hughley said, but once again, you need engagers and resistors. Nobody is wrong in how they choose to bring about change. As long as the end result is the betterment of black people, let people do what they do.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Engagers and resistors need to just stop the infighting and get on the same page. Because guess what? If the engagers go talk to Trump and Trump doesn't do what he's supposed to do or do what he says he's going to do, that's when you send the resistors in. Which happens all the time. That's when you send the resistors in to tear things up. Which happens all the time. That's when you send the resistors in to tear things up. All right, now Selena Gomez. She's, as we told you before, now dating The Weeknd.
Starting point is 00:39:52 There's pictures of them out and about together. The only problem is that she was friends with Bella Hadid, who is The Weeknd's ex-girlfriend. Now they're saying that Bella Hadid is heartbroken after the whole situation, and she believes that Selena did her dirty because she was dating The the weekend behind her back. She feels betrayed because they were actually friends.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Now they're saying Bella Hadid is the one who actually broke up with the weekend two months ago because it was just too difficult them being bi-cultural, not seeing each other all the time. But here's the other thing. She feels like behind her back, that's when Selena Gomez was dating her and she would have loved to have
Starting point is 00:40:23 dating him and she would have loved to have gotten a heads up. So I agree. Selena should have given her a heads up like, her back, that's when Selena Gomez was dating her and she would have loved to have dating him and she would have loved to have gotten a heads up. So I agree, Selena should have given her a heads up, like, you know, your ex-boyfriend and I kind of started seeing each other. I mean, I don't think she should have done it at all if they were really friends. Now on Selena Gomez's behalf, she's saying they weren't even that
Starting point is 00:40:40 close. She's saying the real reason is that they're friends with Taylor Swift, but they're just distant acquaintances and she felt like she's just not that close of a friend of hers so it doesn't matter. Now Justin Bieber, according to sources, is saying that Selena Gomez is just an opportunist
Starting point is 00:40:55 and he believes that Selena is using the weekend for a promotion similar to things that she's done with Nick Jonas, with Zedd and now with The Weeknd and with him as well. So he's not taking it that seriously. And the winner is The Weeknd. Because he's clearly smashed both of them. Drop one of Clues bombs for The Weeknd.
Starting point is 00:41:13 All right, Justin Bieber. This guy is in custody. He was on the internet targeting young girls and getting them to send nude photos. Justin Bieber? No, a man is in custody for targeting Justin Bieber's fans. Oh, you said Justin Bieber first. No, I said Justin Bieber, a man
Starting point is 00:41:30 is in custody. Oh, yeah. You may say like Justin Bieber. It has to do with Justin Bieber. Wow. Now, the guy's name is Brian. That was breaking news. The guy's name is Brian Azrari, and he actually got a nine-year-old girl to send some nude pictures. She was viewing Justin Bieber's Instagram page.
Starting point is 00:41:46 He DM'd her and said he knew Justin Bieber. He said he could arrange a meeting for them through text messages. Then he pretended to be Justin Bieber and told the girl that she had to send nude photos of herself and said that he would hurt her if she didn't. The girl then sent some nude selfies and video. Then he contacted the girl again
Starting point is 00:42:02 and threatened to publish these photos and broadcast them unless she sent some more. That's contacted the girl again and threatened to publish these photos and broadcast them unless she sent some more. That's when the young girl told her mom and the cops got involved. They did confront him. He confessed and he had other victims across the country that he was having them send him nude photos. So now he's facing extortion,
Starting point is 00:42:18 child porn, and other charges. As the daughter of an 8-year-old, it is terrifying to think that... You're the daughter of an 8-year-old? Yes. What do you mean? You have an 8-year-old, it is terrifying to think that... You're the daughter of an 8-year-old? Yes. What do you mean? No, you're not. You have an 8-year-old daughter. Oh.
Starting point is 00:42:33 As a daughter of an 8-year-old... As a daughter of an 8-year-old, let me continue. That just got crazy. Let me continue. As the daughter of an 8-year-old, okay? All right? All right? As the daughter of an 8-year-old.
Starting point is 00:42:43 As a father of an 8-year-old. People know what I mean, all right? No, they don't. You said that you of an 8-year-old. As a father of an 8-year-old. People know what I mean, all right? No, they don't. But you are an 8-year-old's daughter. It's terrifying to me. It's terrifying to me that at 9 years old, you're thinking about sending nudes? At 9?
Starting point is 00:42:57 She probably wasn't thinking about it. She probably wanted to see Justin Bieber. She thought it was Justin Bieber texting her. Why does she think that's an okay bargaining tool at 9? Like, that should be a random daddy-mommy moment immediately. She thought it was Justin Bieber texting her. Why does she think that's an okay bargaining tool at nine? Like, that should be a random daddy-mommy moment immediately. Hey, mommy, daddy, is this guy online? He said, if I send news to Justin Bieber. Not this guy, Justin Bieber.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Oh, Justin Bieber. She thought she was talking to Justin Bieber. I don't know how this happened. All right, now here's something I never knew. That the stereotype is that white people love mayonnaise. You didn't know that? I didn't know that. I just thought mayonnaise was disgusting. I thought a lot white people love mayonnaise. You didn't know that? I didn't know that. I just thought mayonnaise was disgusting.
Starting point is 00:43:27 I thought a lot of people thought that. No, that's been a super stereotype of white people. I have a Latino nanny, and she puts mayonnaise on everything. What did that got to do with white people? Nothing, but I didn't know people liked mayonnaise like that. I mean, mayonnaise on French fries, mayonnaise on chicken nuggets. In Europe, they do, mayonnaise on French fries, mayonnaise on chicken nuggets. In Europe, they do put mayonnaise on French fries.
Starting point is 00:43:47 Tamara Mowry said that she got a lot of flack from her husband because he got offended. She offered to make him a sandwich. Here's what she said. I was checked by my white husband, to be honest with you guys. I made a sandwich and I said, Adam, do you want a lot of mayo on your sandwich?
Starting point is 00:44:04 Because it's kind of like a racial thing that white people love mayonnaise. They do. And black people love, you know, fried chicken. But I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it in a derogative way. He said, Tamara, I don't like mayo just because I'm white. I actually hate mayo. Now, I didn't know that was a thing.
Starting point is 00:44:25 It was a whole movie about it. What was that movie with Eddie Griffin? Soul Brother? What was that movie with Eddie Griffin? It was like a detective or something. Whatever it was. Undercover Brother. That was the white people's kryptonite.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Mayonnaise, I think. It was something to do with white people's mayonnaise. Kryptonite, I mean, you don't like it. I thought. It was something. It was something to do with white people's mayonnaise. I don't remember. Black people's kryptonite? I don't remember. It's all I thought. It was something. It was something to do with white people and man. I don't remember. Black people's kryptonite?
Starting point is 00:44:46 I don't remember. It's all these stereotypes. It's something I never knew about before. I also, I don't want to get into stereotypes. Never mind. I love a good stereotype. No, they say that white people don't use washcloths either. That's a fact. No, you know that's a fact.
Starting point is 00:44:58 You're not white. Listen, I think that's a fact. Don't get yourself in trouble. Steve, do you use a washcloth? He uses a loofer. Look, he looks at us like a washcloth. What the hell is that? Do you use your hand or a loofer?
Starting point is 00:45:11 Or the soap directly on your body. Which one do you use? You use a washcloth? He said yes, he uses a washcloth. He's not your typical white person. He works at a black station. And he uses hella hot sauce. What the hell are you screaming about hot sauce for?
Starting point is 00:45:24 He uses hella hot sauce. More hot sauce than us. So he's typically black. All right. Well, uses hella hot sauce. What the hell are you screaming about hot sauce for? He uses hella hot sauce. More hot sauce than us. So he's typically black. Alright, well anyway, I'm Angela Yu. I'm tired of everything right now. I'm tired of black and white. And that's your rumor report.
Starting point is 00:45:31 Stereotypes. Whatever. What about this donkey? Who you giving this donkey to? A white person. Okay. Charlemagne say the gang donkey under the shade.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Charlemagne. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate. I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the heat. It's a breakfast club, bitches. Who's donkey of the day today?
Starting point is 00:46:02 Well, Mr. Ed Sheeran, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, January 17th goes to comedian, actor, screenwriter, and director Rob Schneider. You ever heard of him? He's been in such critically acclaimed films as Deuce Bigelow, Mel Gigolo, The Hot Chick, Benchwarmers, and Grown Ups. I have a funny story about him
Starting point is 00:46:22 from when I interviewed him once, but go ahead. Really? Yeah. Rob Schneider, ladies and gentlemen. Don't you got some little clips of Rob Schneider? A little something? What do you got? Oh, no!
Starting point is 00:46:32 We suck again! That's it? That's it? Oh, okay. Him. Yeah. Well, Rob Schneider decided to explain the historical significance
Starting point is 00:46:39 of Martin Luther King Jr. to civil rights icon John Lewis. Now, when you hear me say that, it may mean nothing to you, but let me repeat it again. Rob Snyder decided to explain the historical significance of Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights icon John Lewis. Let me tell you, that's like Soulja Boy trying to explain to Scottie Pippen the historical significance of Michael Jordan to basketball.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Okay? You can't tell Scottie a damn thing about MJ because Scottie was there. Well, Rob Snyder tweeted, Representative Lewis, you are a great person, but Dr. King didn't give in to his anger or his hurt. That is how he accomplished and won civil rights. Oh, he thought that tweet was fire when he formed it in his mind. Okay? He thought he was going to get a bunch of retweets when he posted that one.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Well, let me translate that tweet for the Negroes. All right? Imagine Soulja Boy tweeting to Scottie Pippen. Scottie, you are a great player, but Michael Jordan didn't give in to his anger or his hurt. That is how he accomplished and won six championships. Now, I wouldn't tell a surgeon how to get a surgery done. I wouldn't tell a car mechanic how to fix an engine.
Starting point is 00:47:47 I wouldn't tell Tony Starks how to create one of his Iron Man suits. Rob Snyder, how do you tell a civil rights icon how to try to fight for civil rights? Okay, Representative John Lewis was there. He was standing next to Martin Luther King Jr. on the day of the march on Washington for jobs and freedom in 1963.
Starting point is 00:48:04 In fact, if I'm not mistaken, John Lewis is the only surviving speaker from that day. John Lewis was marching on the front lines with Dr. King during the 1965 March from Selma to Montgomery. OK, the moral of the story is Rob Snyder. Shut the F up forever. I don't even know why anything that Rob Snyder says is news in 2017, especially when it comes to an issue about civil rights. What history does Rob Snyder have in civil rights or politics, for that matter, for us to care?
Starting point is 00:48:31 Why do we give energy to certain people when they say certain things? I mean, it makes for great tweets and memes. And I love having content for Donkey of the Day. But I am reminded of the wise words of the great philosopher Dave Chappelle when he said this. I remember right around September 11th, Ja Rule was on MTV. That's what they said. They said, we got Ja Rule on the phone. Let's see what Ja's thoughts are. Who gives a f*** what Ja Rule thinks at a time like this? This is ridiculous. I want some answers that Ja Rule might not have right now. You think when bad s*** happens to me,
Starting point is 00:49:00 I'll be in the crib like, oh my God, this is terrible. Could somebody please find Ja Rule, get hold of this mother****** so I can make sense of all this. Rob Snyder is the Ja Rule in this situation, ladies and gentlemen. I don't give a damn what Rob Snyder thinks about civil rights. Hell, I don't give a damn what Rob Snyder thinks about the deodorant right guard.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I don't care what Rob Snyder thinks about the alt-right, the right stuff, right wings, the right moves, people's right to work. All I care about is giving Rob Schneider thinks about the alt-right, the right stuff, right wings, the right moves, people's right to work. All I care about is giving Rob Schneider the biggest right now. So please, please. Well, my quick Rob Schneider story is when I worked
Starting point is 00:49:37 at Sirius, we interviewed Rob Schneider. Didn't go so well. He came in and sat down in a chair, looked around the room. This is when I was working with Cypher Sounds. He asked one question, and then Rob Schneider just got up and ran out of the room.
Starting point is 00:49:51 What was the question? I don't even remember what he asked. It was like an introductory type of question. So later on, his manager called and told us that he was actually on shrooms at the time, and therefore was acting erratic. That's my whole story. Just another layer of the donkey of the day. Okay. And therefore, it was acting erratic. So that's my whole story.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Just another layer of the donkey of the day. Why are we listening to a drug addict who's sitting around at home, high on shrooms, tweeting about things that he has no knowledge of? We were like, what just happened? Damn it, man. Okay. All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Now, if you just joined us, Tack Stone, who is a friend of Charlemagne's, who does a podcast called, what's the name of his podcast? Tack Season. Tack Season. He was arrested Monday morning. Will you have the details, G? Oh, let me pull them up.
Starting point is 00:50:32 But you guys continue. No, we need the details. That's why we wanted you to pull them up. Well, it all started with the incident that happened at Irving Plaza. T.I. was about to perform. There was a concert shooting and Tack Stone was arrested in connection with that shooting. They're saying they found his DNA, from what I'm reading in reports, on the gun.
Starting point is 00:50:50 So now the question is, 800-585-1051. Earlier, Angel Yee asked Charlamagne if he would support him regardless. I said I support him 100%. You asked him if he would support him no matter what. He just said that he would support him regardless. I said no matter what and he said... I support him right or wrong. That's my guy. I support Taxi 100%. No, he just said that he would support him regardless. And I said, no matter what, and he said.
Starting point is 00:51:05 I support him right or wrong. That's my guy. Like, you know, I don't know what the whole situation is, but, I mean, that's the rules of engagement when it comes to, you know, the street, right? Or just in general, as a human being. Like, I'm just supposed to say, F him now? Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:19 Well, that is the question. 800-585-1051, because people actually tweeted and was like, well, what happened if he actually did it? If he actually did the crime and he actually murdered and was like, well, what happened if he actually did it? If he actually did the crime and he actually murdered and killed somebody, would you still support him? You can support somebody
Starting point is 00:51:30 without condoning what they actually did. You do know that, right? Like, I can still support him without condoning the actual situation that happened. Well, that is the question.
Starting point is 00:51:39 800-585-1051 if your friend... Let's take it out of text, though, because I don't know what's going on with this case let's take it out of this case we don't even know
Starting point is 00:51:47 the whole details of the situation let's take it straight out of that would you support your friends regardless of what happened I have a great story
Starting point is 00:51:55 to tell you about something that happened to me in real life so you don't have friends that have caught cases Envy
Starting point is 00:52:00 yes I do okay I don't even understand this conversation we're having right now no murder charges though well okay we don't why. I don't even understand this conversation we're having right now. No murder charges, though. Well, okay. Why you... He don't have a murder charge.
Starting point is 00:52:10 You just asked me a question. I'm just telling you. Tax don't have a murder charge. I think he's trying to say it depends on what it is. I'm not having this conversation. As I said, take it out of tax. We're just talking friends. This is ridiculous. We're just asking. 800-585-1051. Would you support your friends regardless of what they did? That is the question, 800-585-1051, would you support your friends regardless of what they did?
Starting point is 00:52:26 That is the question. 800-585-1051. And you're saying regardless of what your friend did, you would support regardless? In this particular situation? We're taking it out of text, though. That's too broad a question. I didn't want to put that energy on that situation. Yeah, that's too broad a question.
Starting point is 00:52:42 That's way too broad a question. Because if one of my friends is a pedophile, I'm not rocking with that person anymore. My friend is a serial rapist. I'm not rocking with that person. It depends on what the action is. All right, 800-585-1051. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. N.V. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're asking 805-85-1051, do you support your friends regardless of what happens or what crime they commit? That is the question. Let's start with you, Angela Yee. Well, I had a situation in high school.
Starting point is 00:53:16 One of my friends that I went to school with actually ended up, while he was in college, going to jail for being a serial sexual assaulter slash rapist. Some of the women he sexually assaulted. I didn't think he did it. So I actually had wrote a letter to the judge. I was like, there's no way he could have done something like this. He was a really, like, very, very close to me, lived right down the block from me, knew his whole family,
Starting point is 00:53:37 used to hang out there all the time. And I didn't believe he was capable of something like that until I went to go visit him. They were evaluating him in the hospital. And I was like, I can't believe they're trying of something like that until I went to go visit him. They were evaluating him in the hospital. And I was like, I can't believe they're trying to say you did these terrible things. And it turns out he did do it. Damn it. And so I really haven't spoken to him since.
Starting point is 00:53:54 He wrote to me from jail twice. But after that, I didn't really feel like I could be supportive of the things that he did. Well, I can't be supportive of anybody that's a rapist, a pedophile, or a murderer. If you murder somebody out of self-defense, okay. But if you're going around
Starting point is 00:54:15 shooting and killing people... Yeah, if you death to an old dog in menace, even if you're just... Old dog in menace was out of control. If you're going around killing people, I can't support you. I can't support people, even if you're, oh, just, you don't got to, oh, yeah, Old Dog and Menace. Old Dog and Menace was out of control. He was a little, he was ridiculous. If you're going around killing people, I can't support you. I can't support people.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Even if you're in a gang. That's my man. And you're out killing people, I can't support that. That's just me personally. You know what I mean? But if it's self-defense, not a problem. But you have plenty of friends who are in gangs, I'm sure. No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:54:39 In gangs? Associates. No, I don't. Friends and associates are different things. I don't. I absolutely don't. We're talking about friends. Maybe 10 years ago you could have said that, but that was true. Like people who don't. Friends and associates are different things. We're talking about friends, support.
Starting point is 00:54:45 Maybe 10 years ago you could have said that but that was true. Like people who you would put some money up if something happened. I would definitely put money up.
Starting point is 00:54:51 That's what we're talking about. So if that's the question, because that's what I'm, when I talk support, that's what I mean. Like, yeah, tax your bail, definitely going to help
Starting point is 00:55:01 tax with that or whatever. Lawyer fees, whatever, because that's my guy. I invested in him on a business level as well. So why wouldn't I see that all the way through? You can support someone without condoning their behavior. You know, I have friends who have went to prison for shooting people. I have friends who have went to prison for selling dope.
Starting point is 00:55:19 They're still my guys. I'm not going to just say F you now and turn my back on you because of a situation that happened. Unless it was rape. Rape or pedophilia. Yeah, absolutely. Or serial murderers. But what murder is okay? Me and Dexter can't be cool.
Starting point is 00:55:35 If Jeffrey Dahmer can't be my man, I can't help you. I support Jeffrey and all the legs he has chosen to eat over the years. But what murder is cool, just not 10? Man, I don't even know what y'all talking about. This sounds ridiculous. What are you talking about? I'm just asking. I like what you said earlier. If it was in self-defense,
Starting point is 00:55:51 absolutely. That's still gonna be my guy. 100%. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Ethan. Ethan, what's going on? Good morning. Hey, good morning, everybody. Hey, buddy. We're talking to support your friends. Yeah, I'm with Charlamagne. I say, you know, you got to be there for your friends. You never know who else is there for them.
Starting point is 00:56:07 And, you know, you don't want them doing nothing crazy or being in a different mindset. You want to help them out. Okay. No matter what, though, for you. Oh, for sure. I mean, they might do some crazy things. I mean, you can still support them, like he said, without actually condoning what they've done. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Hello, who's this? This is Haas from Atlanta's Haas from Atlanta. Haas from Atlanta. We're talking about supporting friends regardless. What do you think? Yeah, I'm like what Charlamagne said, man. It depends on the nature of the crime, man. I ain't supporting no damn pedophile.
Starting point is 00:56:35 You out here touching kids, man, you know, you get no support at all. Right. You know, that's just what it is. But other than that, you know, one of your mans getting a little low on cash, rob a bank or something, hey, f*** up. Ugh. Like I said, it's just...
Starting point is 00:56:51 But you can rob a bank, but just not hurt nobody, right? Just take money, right? Hey, man, I hate to say it, but the truth to the matter is I don't understand how you black grew up in any type of environment and don't have friends
Starting point is 00:57:04 who have done some type of dirt. Yeah, I mean... We're all lying to ourselves. We all have friends that did any type of environment and don't have friends who have done some type of dirt. Yeah, I mean... We're all lying to ourselves. We all have friends that did some type of dirt, but it's just how far dirt has they done. That's a fact. That's a fact. So when you ask me, once again,
Starting point is 00:57:15 I don't know the whole situation with tax dollars. Let's take tax out of it, because we don't... But that's the question you asked me. I don't know the whole situation. All I know is that's my man. Right, okay. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:57:23 And I'm going to support him while he fights whatever it is that he's fighting right now. And his lawyer said he's pleading not guilty, so I'm going to help with that fight. N.V. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about support of friends. This came out of Tax
Starting point is 00:57:39 Stone's story, you know, recently. He just got arrested yesterday. And today's his arraignment, right? Yep. Back today at 2 o'clock. This is for the alleged incident that happened in a club. They're saying they found DNA on a gun that was his. And this is for the shooting that happened before TI
Starting point is 00:57:55 performed and someone was killed. Now, I said as far as supporting friends, I will support all my friends regardless of what they do. Unless they were a murderer. Unless they were a pedophile, unless they were a rapist. I just can't support those things. You know what I mean? Unless it's self-defense, it's something that we can understand.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Like, okay, I get it and I understand. But if my friend just robs a bank and kills 10 people as him trying to rob a bank, I can't support that. Oh, yeah. I'm with you 100%. You know what I'm saying? people as him trying to rob a bank, I can't support that. Oh, yeah. There's certain things I just can't. I'm with you 100%, you know what I'm saying? But I stand by the fact that I do support Tax Stone in this situation simply because that's my guy and I've invested in him on a professional level as well. So it's like, why would I not stand by him in this situation? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:58:41 He's pleading not guilty, and I'm going to stand by him and helping him plead not guilty. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's Josh. How you doing? Hey, John, what's going on? We're talking about supporting your friends
Starting point is 00:58:51 regardless, no matter what. Yo, so, in regards to, if it's one of my homeboys, I'm going to support him ride or die. Now, if it's a charge on a child, something crazy, rape, and something like on a child, bro, something crazy,
Starting point is 00:59:06 rape, and something like that, I gotta walk from you. But a murder rap, something like that, I'm gonna ride with you. I rode with my homeboy in 99, hit a kid in the head with a baseball bat, went for the team, took an attempted murder charge, took it to trial, and beat it.
Starting point is 00:59:22 On self-defense, we rode with him the whole way. But in regards to the whole... I ride with him, man. I support Trav. I've got mad love for him. Trav needs to get the hell up out of New York because he ain't got much longer on the streets up there.
Starting point is 00:59:36 They definitely shot at Trav again. Nobody knows the whole story. Nobody knows the full story. You can't say or agree on any side. We honestly just don't know. And by the way, I wish the best for Troy Ave too. You know, I've sent Troy Ave text messages and told him, you know, keep your head up. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:59:53 Stay on the righteous path and all that good stuff. I don't know how this situation came to all of this, but it is what it is. We're just dealing with it at this moment. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's up? What's up, man? We're talking about supporting your friends regardless. Yeah dealing with it at this moment. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's up? What's up, man? We're talking about supporting your friends regardless. Yeah, yo, check this out.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Hey, yo, just because a man sit in prison doing time for murder doesn't mean he's a killer. And just because you out here with your freedom doesn't mean you're innocent. With that being said, we got to hold our friends down no matter what. If they did it or if they didn't. Just because they say, yo, he did it, we're going to hold our friends down no matter what. If they did it or if they didn't. Just because they say, yo, he did it, we're going to turn our back on him? Nah, if dudes is our brothers, true brothers, and we love them, then we're going to do whatever we need to do, right or wrong, in whatever
Starting point is 01:00:34 situation they in. Now, a true brother, when it comes to my real family, that's different than just an associate to me. Not really. To me it is. You said what now? I said my real family to me is different than an associate. I got friends that are way
Starting point is 01:00:50 closer than my blood relatives. Not friend. People throw that word brother around loosely sometimes. The moral of the story is you can support someone without condoning what they did. I feel like in times like this you really do realize who's in your corner.
Starting point is 01:01:06 But that's the type of person I am, regardless. If I've ever said that, yo, I'll rock with you, I'm gonna rock with you till the wheels fall off. Like, period. You know, that's just the way I roll. And I feel like that's the reason I get a lot of my blessings. So you're ride or die, you say? Because the truth of the matter is
Starting point is 01:01:22 God is not gonna judge me based off how people treat me. He's gonna judge me based off how people treat me. He's going to judge me based off how I treat people, period. So. All right. So Charlemagne's
Starting point is 01:01:29 a ride or die. All right. I didn't say all that. I said that I'm a grown ass man and if I rock with you, I'm going to rock with you
Starting point is 01:01:37 until the wheels fall off, period. Okay. Isn't that the same? No, it's not actually because I'm not willing to die. When the wheels
Starting point is 01:01:43 fall off, you might die. No, not really. We see what type of person Angelina is, though. What's the difference between what I'm saying and what I'm saying? Angelina, I'm rocking with you, but you're getting a little situation. Nope. I'm going on this side.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Sorry. I think my friends know how to... And we don't ever catch a body around you. Yeah, don't do that. But I think my friends... Listen, I had the same friends since I was in kindergarten, so I think my friends know how loyal I am to them. But I also know what type of people I associate with.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Black Beatles. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, We All The Breakfast Club. Jesus Christ, I just seen a freaking Oreo cream egg come across my timeline. What? Like an Oreo cream egg.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Like the Cadbury cream egg? Yeah, but it's like the Oreo is the eggshell and then the cream in the middle. Jesus Christ. Now that's a heart attack. I don't even eat like that,
Starting point is 01:02:33 but that made me horny. Horny? It's only available in the UK, though. You got to fly over there and get one. All right. Or maybe somebody
Starting point is 01:02:41 could send some. I'm going out there in a couple months. Yeah, Jesus Christ. All right, well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Mariah Carey. This is the Rumor Report
Starting point is 01:02:49 with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Nick Cannon was recently on Ellen, and on the show he discussed what happened New Year's Eve with Mariah Carey. Here's what he says is his theory.
Starting point is 01:03:06 I'm a conspiracy theorist. Uh-huh, I think the government did that they set her up That was that was a distraction that that's they just put her out there But I mean anyone who knows about performing and having inner ears and stuff things like that can go wrong on live television I do live television all the time. I screw up on America's Got Talent all the time So when there's people in your ear saying things and stuff, and I think she kind of got a little flustered, but being the diva that she is, she said, I'm just going to walk around and pose for seven minutes.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Nick is absolutely right with what he said about live television. But what he should have said was, he should have took it a step further and said that Mariah was asked to do Trump's inauguration, and she declined, so the Illuminati sabotaged her. Well, Mariah's still doing great after all of that. Her and Elton John got hired, and they were in Russia doing a gig for a billionaire, a billionaire's daughter, and guess how much they got paid?
Starting point is 01:03:55 $4.2 million. Each? I think all together. Wow. Yeah. So here's a little piece of her. Sounds like Elton got shortchanged a little bit. Well, Elton John did a 12-song set, and then they wanted Mariah to do We Belong Together
Starting point is 01:04:06 and dedicate that to the new couple and perform. She's only 19 years old, the bride, and they actually requested Mariah Carey. Here's a little piece of what that sounded like. Don't look at me because I did it twice. I mean... She lip syncing. She did a couple of songs. Yeah, she lip synced.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Yeah, she did a couple of songs. And clearly in this day, she lip syncing. She's singing over the track. Lip syncing. The track is playing. Clear as day, that was the track playing. Really? Absolutely. With a couple of little ad-libs in there. Clear as day, that was the track playing. Really? Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:04:45 With a couple of little ad-libs in there, clear as day, that was the track playing. But who cares? She got paid. Take the money and run. Put it in the bag. Put the money in the bag. All right, 2 Chainz has a new album coming out.
Starting point is 01:04:56 It's called Pretty Girls Like Trap Music. Drop on a Clues Bomb for 2 Chainz, damn it. And that album's due out April 7th. I think 2 Chainz had a great year this past year. Absolutely. A couple years past. He's had a great career. But, I mean, we always talk about who was the best rapper this last year.
Starting point is 01:05:11 I think 2 Chainz should be on that list always because he makes great collaboration albums, makes great mixtapes, solo albums. So this is coming out. And he's going to have Drake on the album, and he teased a collaboration with Justin Bieber as well. You know, if you look at his Instagram, you can see pictures of him in the studio that he's been posting. 2 Chainz has been a consistent hip-hop all-star.
Starting point is 01:05:31 You might take his 20-plus points and 10-plus rebounds a game for granted nowadays, only because he does it so much, but yeah, he's consistent. He knows how to make hits. And he was one of the first artists that really supported and rolled with The Breakfast Club when it was a little scarce for us. Absolutely. Drop on the Clues Bonds with 2 Chainz. I remember I go with 2 Chainz because he was a kiddie boy. He did out for, you know, well, yeah, you can ask the names. I was a Player Circles fan with him and Dollar Boy as a group.
Starting point is 01:05:55 He did our first show for us for free and Charlamagne put him in a dollar van and like at the Best Western or some craziness. By the way, I sent one of my Haitian homies. They never showed up. No, Shad showed up. He just showed up in a dollar van because he had to do what he had to do. I feel like on the way out, they didn't show up. There was something on that. No, on the way out, 2 Chainz was like, you know what?
Starting point is 01:06:15 I'm going to book my own transportation this time, Charlamagne. I don't trust you and your Haitian homies, but that's why I rock with Haitian people because they get the job done regardless, okay? Even though he knew that he would be embarrassed pulling up in that little dollar van, he still pulled up in that aluminum caravan, okay? And 2 Chainz being the trooper he is, jumped in.
Starting point is 01:06:34 It's again out April 7th. Pretty Girls Like Trap Music, so shout out to 2 Chainz. Thank you, 2 Chainz. Alright, and Jennifer Holiday, she was supposed to perform at inauguration and she has pulled out. Now, according to her, she didn't do it because she got a lot of heat from the LGBT community. Apparently,
Starting point is 01:06:49 she said the gays only called out the issues, not name-calling. She said gays have always fed and supported her even when the church people didn't. So it wasn't because of black people going in on her. She's saying it was the LGBT community going in on her. But her agent actually said it was because of death threats.
Starting point is 01:07:06 According to her rep, they said it was all of those things. She wasn't scared to perform. She didn't want to put her family at risk based on the death threats. And she didn't want to offend the LGBT community, which was especially upset that a past ally would perform on a program with President-elect Donald Trump. I read that Jennifer Holliday's performed at other inaugurations before. She performed at, I think, both Bush inaugurations and Bill Clinton.
Starting point is 01:07:26 I guess a lot of communities have taken offense to certain things that Donald Trump has, many things that Donald Trump has said. So they feel like you're our ally. You shouldn't be performing for Donald Trump. Jennifer just said, look, man, I've been doing this for years for different presidents getting this check. Well, that was her choice. She felt like those are the people that support her the most. She didn't want to turn her back on them. So that was her choice. She felt like those are the people that support her the most. She didn't want to turn her back on them. So that's her decision.
Starting point is 01:07:47 And they are having some trouble booking singers for the inauguration. One of the problems, according to his committee, Donald Trump's committee, is that record labels don't want their artists to perform and they are not letting them do it. They're saying no way. Nobody in the Trump administration is smart because if I was in the Trump administration, I'd be like, look, January 20th, Friday, there's only one person that can perform my inauguration.
Starting point is 01:08:08 That's Rebecca Black, okay? Drop one of the clues bombs for Rebecca Black. Let Rebecca Black sing Friday. Such a glorious Friday. And keep it moving. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. And Rebecca Black would not turn that down. You don't know that.
Starting point is 01:08:22 No way. What else you going to do? Ain't nobody been supporting her. I'm not going to do it because don't know that. No way. What else you gonna do? Ain't nobody been supporting her. I'm not gonna do it because I've had supporters all these years. Who's supporting Rebecca Black? Except for the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:08:31 Every Friday. All right. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
Starting point is 01:08:40 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.
