On Thanksgiving Day, 1999, five-year-old Cuban boy Elian Gonzalez was found off the coast of Florida.
And the question was, should the boy go back to his father in Cuba?
Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home
and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or stay with his relatives in Miami?
Imagine that your mother died
trying to get you to freedom.

Hello, who's this?
What's going on, Breakfast Club?
This is for Faye Jo.
How y'all doing this morning?
What up, brother?
Get off your chest.
What's going on?
Yeah, I just wanted to commend y'all on that interview with Sanjay.
Not for Sanjay, but for you guys, because y'all killed that interview with sanjay um not for sanjay but for you guys because
y'all killed it with questions that was dope and nb you sounded more concerned the most i've ever
heard you prior to you getting your uh your dad you know what i'm saying and um great questions
on that and my thing is sanjay he's just a medical doctor man i mean as far as a neurosurgeon he's
really not a biochemist but you really can't tell people what's going on with the vaccine as far as that.
Like, we all study.
And Charlemagne, he raised some great questions, obvious questions,
and the man just couldn't answer them.
And it was like, I just wanted the brothers and sisters to see this out there.
Like, this is dog.
This is a gender that's, like, going way too far.
He's selling books right now.
This ain't about the people.
Damn.
I just got questions.
You know, I got concern for my kids.
That's all.
So when it comes to my kids,
I ask a zillion and one questions.
I try to make sure I'm as knowledgeable
as I can be when it comes to my kids,
you know?
Absolutely.
I heard that.
And, again,
where do we go from here now?
Because these mandates are out there.
And, like you said, medical doctors, if we don't have them, we're from here now? Because these mandates are out there. And like you said, medical doctors,
if we don't have them, we're firing right now.
It's just retarded.
Like, this thing is just stupid.
So who do you listen to?
Listen to you guys from the beginning.
And right about now, it's all confusing.
I think the smartest thing to do
is listen to the so-called experts,
listen to the experts, and just make your own decisions, brother.
That's what I do.
You know?
Absolutely.
All right, brother.
Thank you, man.
You got it, brother.
Hello, who's this?
This is Mike.
Mike, what's up, brother?
What's up, Mike, brother?
What's good, man?
Bless Black and highly favor.
What's happening?
Now, Marsh, I know you're not supposed to pat yourself on the back too much in this life.
You got to be humble, but I just want to say something about myself during the holidays.
I was thinking, like, I just thank God because I came from, like, a single mother.
I came from two other brothers, man, and I was raised up doing stupid stuff and everything.
And now I look at it, I got a CDL, man.
I got beautiful kids. I got a CDL, man. I got beautiful kids.
I got a beautiful place.
And I'm doing really good for myself.
I was the worst kid growing up.
And I thought I was going to be nothing.
But I came down to be like a wise, real good dude.
And I got a good job.
And I got a good career.
And I'm taking care of my family.
And I thank God for that.
There you go.
That's all.
Brother, you should definitely tell
yourself that every day. That's not patting
yourself on the back. And if you are, so
what? I know. Thank God,
bro. Thank God for it all.
I know, man, and I can't believe
it. And my family, like,
oh, they're kind of mad that I turned out
that way. I just thought I was that way
growing up because I had my own path,
but I'm on the search to learn it, and I am doing great, y'all. I'm telling you. I'm proud of you, King.
I'm proud of you.
I'm proud of you, King.
I am proud of you.

The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast
Club. We got a special guest in the
building. I thought she was up here, so
I thought you were up here before. No,
my first time. She's a virgin.
I'm like, I'm a Breakfast Club virgin.
I just know your face.
I grew up on you. So I just know.
I just thought you were here.
You're part of the family.
I love it.
It's AJ Johnson.
Good morning.
What's up?
What's up?
Good morning.
Now, if you don't know who AJ Johnson is and you don't know her from Life Therapy and all
the shows that she did, she was on one of my favorite movies of all time, House Party.
You know, I'm surprised you said that.
Why?
I thought you were going to say Baby Boy.
Yeah, that too.
Well, I was going to say Usually guys say baby boy
Really
Yeah
And girls say house party
Yeah
Nah house party
I'm from New York
So it was like
I grew up on that
So I want to start
From the beginning
If you don't mind
Like how did you
Get into acting
How did you get the part
In house party
Let's talk about it
Oh my goodness
You don't have enough time
And you're from New Jersey
Jersey yeah Yeah well I went to Spelman I went to school in Atlanta And the beginning house party. Let's talk about it. Oh my goodness, you don't have enough time. And you're from New Jersey. Jersey, yeah.
I went to Spelman. I went to school in Atlanta.
And the beginning was Spike Lee
shooting school days on campus.
And so
as a pre-med major, I still put
my foot in the arts. Let's go back to the real
beginning. So growing up in Jersey, my parents
used to bring me up to the city. So every time I come
to New York, it's really nostalgic for me.
Because I grew up on Alvin Ailey dance
classes and going to see Broadway shows
and so that's where I feel like the performance
bug got me, but I
came from an academic family. So it was
like, yeah, that's fun, but you're going to be
a doctor, you're going to be a lawyer, or you're going to
be an accountant. So I always saw it as fun
until Spike showed up, his butt.
He shows up on campus and
he's like, you know,
I think I want you to be in my movie.
I was Miss Morehouse
at the time,
you know.
Yeah.
So I was,
you know,
I was kind of doing it
at school
and he was like,
you know,
I think I kind of want
your presence in the movie.
And I was like,
yeah,
you think?
I need you to be sure.
He was like,
see,
that's what I'm talking about.
That energy.
And so God bless him
because he put me
in School Days
and that started everything
because it gave me
my Screen Actors Guild
membership, which is what
you need, of course.
No, and it's not. And so I love
Spike forever for that because he believed in me enough
to finance that and the
rest took off after that. What about your parents? Because they
already wanted you. You were pre-med.
Oh, yeah. Well, I lost my mom my
first year of school, but my dad
and the rest of my family was like, no, no,
no. No no this is supposed
to be fun and my dad actually didn't speak to me until the house party premiere because then he
wanted tickets oh really did you for a second no lie did you for a second say i don't know you
haven't been talking to me no because i knew i knew you know and he knew we were close so he
said listen i'm just scared for you like that life you understand you know he's like you know
i'm from jersey i'm an engineer I don't know nothing about Hollywood and
auditions and red carpets.
He's like, but now I'm going to find out because my girl
doing it. So break down House
Party. So how did House Party come to you and
what was the vision when you first seen it?
Okay, well, did you know that I
was in Living Color, Fly Girl choreographer?
Yes. Okay, so
actually House Party conflicted
with in Living Color. So Keenan and Ivy Wayans was like, you got to do either. So I was Party conflicted with In Living Color.
So Keenan Ivory Wayans was like, you got to do either.
So I was like, okay, so I'm out.
And you're just going to leave In Living Color, one of the biggest shows on TV.
But at the time it was the beginning.
It was growing.
I was pioneering.
Correct.
Right?
So I called in Rosie, my girl, Rosie Perez.
I said, listen, I got to take a step back for a second.
Go try to do this movie thing.
I need you to handle it for me. That's dope that you hooked a friend up. Because some people might have been like, oh, I gotta take a step back for a second. Go try to do this movie thing. I need you to handle it for me. That's dope
that you hooked a friend up. Because some people
might have been like, oh, I gotta make a choice. I'm
out. Good luck. Oh, no, no, no.
Because Rosie was, you know, at the time, you know, as
dancers, it was like, Rosie was holding down
the East Coast. I was holding down the West Coast.
So we shot In Living Color on the West Coast.
So, I mean, and Keenan was a friend.
So I was like, you know, I'm gonna take this opportunity,
but I'm not gonna leave my boy hanging. So I was like, let me go get you the baddest dancer I know, whichenan was a friend so I was like you know I'm going to take this opportunity but I'm not going to leave my boy hanging
so I was like let me go get you the baddest dancer I know
which was Rosie and so
of course Rosie and then you know
Tisha and I were friends because we met
during school days and I said
listen I'm trying to do this movie I think
you know they came to the location to check me
out on Living Color looking for a brown skin
chick who can dance and she's like
oh no they're looking for a light skin girl for the other role I wonder And she's like, oh, no. They're looking for a light-skinned girl for the other role.
I wonder if it's me and you. Well, now
we don't have to wonder.
You know what? Do you think that
you're training
and what you do
for people as a life coach
that helps even when you're on set
just being there with people?
Because I can imagine how pleasant
it must be to be around you because you have a lot of the skills and tools to make sure that
you know how to treat other people.
Some people don't know how to do that.
I love you saying that, Ange,
because I think that part of my life and personality
is what got me to the life coaching.
It was like as people, as I'm, you know,
I mean, I've been doing this for 30 years.
So as I work with different people, as I'm around different people,
they're the ones saying, you saying, can I talk to you?
Can I get your take on this?
I heard you went through a hard time
but you're not wearing
your story.
How are you so up?
And so that's where the life coaching came from, the
psychology degree and background. I just started
helping people. And before my dad
passed, he was like, well, are they paying you
for it? And I was like, no, no, no, I'm helping my friends. He was like well are they paying you for it and I said no no no I'm helping my friends he was like well can they pay me
cuz I paid for Spelman so can they pay me back that's right you know and so in
his passing he said you know promise me you'll just try it cuz that's part of
your gift and your talent and you know you you help people and you're in
service as a person but at the same time that that's a job. Right. So here we are.
And TV One, TV One said, whoop!
And said, we want you to executive produce.
That's dope.
It's your show, 18 episodes.
Show us how you do it.
All right, we got more with AJ Johnson.
We're getting this free life therapy this morning.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, guys.
I'm Kate Max.
You might know me from my popular online series,
The Running Interview Show,
where I run with celebrities, athletes,
entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going.
That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about.
It's a chance to sit down with my guests
and dive even deeper into their stories,
their journeys, and the thoughts that arise
once we've hit the pavement together.
You know that rush of endorphins
you feel after a great workout?
Well, that's when the real magic happens.
So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories
from the people you know, follow, and admire,
join me every week for Post Run High.
It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's
lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On Thanksgiving Day, 1999, a five-year-old boy floated alone in the ocean.
He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba.
He looked like a little angel. I mean, he looked so fresh.
And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere.
Elian Gonzalez.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian. Elian. His father in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take
his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is
still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well. Listen to
Chess Piece, the Elian Gonzalez story, as part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the
iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered.
There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate.
My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere,
a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks.
Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption
that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state.
And she paid the ultimate price.
Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with AJ Johnson, actress, wellness coach.
She has a show on TV One, Life Therapy.
Now, Yii?
Question, Envy, why did you cheat?
A lot of different reasons.
Insecurity is the main one.
I think one, because when I was home, I was Rashawn Casey.
But when I was in the street, I was DJ Envy.
So I almost felt like I was a superhero.
Like, I put my cape on, I'm a different person.
And what part of your life, though? What part of your life did this
happen? Because y'all been together a long
time. When I started popping.
And when was that?
I would say maybe my
late 20s. You was feeling yourself. Yeah, feeling
myself because you gotta think. I was, and I hate
to say it, I was the kid with the glasses, the braces.
Oh my God, he looks terrible. Here we go.
Listen, he had them little tight shorts on with his socks up to his knees.
The nerd.
My first name was DJ Shrimp.
I was only 5'4 at first.
I thought it was because of something else.
No, shut up.
But I grew from 5'4 to 6'0.
So it was like, you know, as a kid, I was the nerd.
Nobody was f***ing with me.
Nobody was hollering at me.
But now, I'm 6'0.
I got LASIK.
My braces are off.
I got LASIK.
I got LASIK as number off i got lacing i got
lacing is number two there was no more metal mouth it was no more four eyes it was no more none of
that listen and now nothing sexier than that crazy guillermo dusted you off right and fixed you up
she dusted me off and fixed me up and now i'm now you're out there i'm out great but you know how
many how many stories are the same?
Male and female.
The chubby girl in high school
who couldn't make the cheerleading team
all of a sudden becomes the beauty queen
and she's also now at the home.
I was like 95 pounds in high school.
You know what I mean?
I think what's great with you guys is that you have such a history
that's your foundation. You had to
know you were going to grow up together.
So that growing years,
I mean,
most people don't really
find their person
until a good reason person
until like 30.
So you have all that
growing and maturing to do
before you lock down.
If you lock down sooner,
you're going to have
those growing pains
as they say.
Correct.
So you have to go
through them together.
Me and my wife wrote a book
during the pandemic
which comes out next year.
You've got to have them
on the show.
But we talk about all that because I was insecure. She was
beautiful. I didn't want her to go
outside. I didn't want her to
wear form-fitting clothes.
I was that type of guy.
The guy that, if my daughter dated
a guy like me, I'd be like,
we gotta give it his. I got a question. Yes, ma'am.
So is there anything from that
guy, because that's a soul. Is there anything from that guy because that's a
soul is there anything from that soul although we fixed a lot of the outside is there anything
on the inside that still needs healing when it comes to that no you're absolutely sure so why
do you think you don't want to know her truth if there is something to tell handle the truth well
I don't think about the past. I don't think about anything.
Do you believe that? He don't want to think about his past.
I don't think about anybody's past.
It gets me to a place where I don't want to think about it.
Some people, they drink to forget
about things or they use drugs. For myself,
I focus on the future.
I focus on my kids and the future
and what's coming on next. I never want to go back
to that person. I never want to
think about that person. I know who that person person. I never want to think about that person.
I know who that person is and I don't like talking about that person.
Even with my wife, she got cut in her face,
right? She had like 60 stitches.
Girls beat her up when she was 15, jumped
to cut her face. I never want to think
about that again. So every time she brings
that story up, I have to walk out the room.
You don't even want to hear about it. I don't want to hear it no more because I
dealt with that. We didn't cry.
But you're healed from it. So you're already healed from it.
No residual nothing.
Exactly.
If it wasn't,
I would find a person
and blow their house up,
but I'm healed from it.
Well, see,
that means that you're still not healed
because you're telling that
you have thoughts of...
No, I don't have thoughts about that.
If I did,
I would have done it.
You hear what I'm saying?
That is very complicated.
I know,
but you know what?
This is life therapy.
Yes!
This is a great example of what life therapy is.
Right.
No, it is.
It is.
And this is what therapy is.
I mean, the reason why we're doing the show is to hopefully show the black and brown community
that doesn't necessarily know or go to therapy.
We're trying to show, and hopefully succeeding, that therapy is this.
It's exactly what we're doing.
We're talking things out, looking for solutions in a safe
place where you can feel
like you have no reason to hide your
truth and open and honesty because the
next step is moving forward in your life.
Where you are now may not be the
relationship you want in two
months, three months. That's the
one thing too that I love about the timing of
life therapy is that we're dealing
in a time when the world keeps turning and flipping.
You know, we didn't know that we'd be here, you know, this long in a pandemic and it's not going anywhere anytime soon.
And we're getting ready to go into another slump in it. Right.
So our lives, our work, our relationships, our families, everything, our finances, everything is affected.
Is it draining sometimes when you leave from doing the therapy?
Because it's really deep, the things that you have to discuss.
Yeah.
Like, there's one picture I posted on Instagram in the middle of shooting where I was getting, like, a vitamin IV because I was so drained.
But the difference for me is this is not a job for me.
I really believe it's a calling.
You know, all of it, all of my life, all of my career has led to this.
I mean, think about it. When you talk about clients and you talk about Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, you know, Beyonce,
CeeLo. I mean, the list, you know, I've been so blessed to work with so many people and gain
their trust to work with so many people. Tisha. I mean, the list goes on. What I love is that
part of the trust comes from I've lived the life. I'm in the industry. I have struggles,
but they're seeing where I'm managing my life. I'm in the industry. I have struggles. But they're seeing where I'm managing my life.
I'm managing my happy.
I'm managing my mental and my stress.
So basically the business came because they said,
you're doing a better job at the management than I am.
Please show me and teach me how you do it.
Do I owe you a check?
Well, Envy, make sure you send Envy his invoice.
He just said, do I owe you a check?
No, this is my Christmas gift. You got change? This said that. No, this is my Christmas gift.
You got change?
This is my Christmas gift.
This is my Christmas gift.
And when I come back and see y'all in January,
now we're going to start charging.
This is the first free one.

Neither one of y'all should be flirting with each other.
That's our way against the rules.
What rules?
No flirting with n****s.
Dude. You know what? with each other that's our way against the rules what rules no fighting with

Yo, hello.
Who's this?
What's going on, man?

No, my name is Ty.
T-Y.
Oh, Ty.
Oh, Ty.
See?
See, he was flirting with you.
Is it disrespectful the way he flirts with me to my wife?
I'm going to keep on hunting himself, man.
Both of y'all flirt with each other, but
Charlamagne, you're a little heavier than Envy, man.
What do you mean heavier?
Heavier. Like, your flirting is heavier.
Like, every morning, you notice
something about Envy.
All I ever talk about is his beard.
How do you not notice that fake paint
all the time?
You call him Dominican Papi and all that.
I ain't say Papi. That's what he said.
I ain't got no Papi now. Envy said. I ain't jabbing a Papi now.
Envy, you more like you look at Charlamagne more than you flirt.
Finally, somebody notices it.
Don't look at that, man.
No.
It's not my type.
Hello, who's this?
This is Jorge.
Hey, what's up, bro?
Hi, Ray.
Is it disrespectful to my wife the way this man flirts with me?
No, is it disrespectful to my wife the way Envy flirts with me?
Both of you guys are being disrespectful
to your wives, man.
You guys need to stop.
As long as they're here listening to you guys,
you guys have been a little too suspect with each other.
You guys should just back it up
and go ahead and go on a date, man, for real.
Why do you want all that?
Who wants all that?
Well, I don't want that, but you guys want that.
No, we don't.
What's up with you, man?
Y'all so used to brothers not showing love to each other that you want us to date?
Goodness gracious.
Hello, who's this?
This is Tasha.
Hey, Tasha.
I'm just asking a question.
Is it disrespectful to my wife the way this guy flirts with me?
Tasha, is it disrespectful to my wife the way Envy flirts with me?
Come on, now.
Honestly, if I was either one of your guys' wives, I would find it totally disrespectful
the way that you guys flirt with each other.
What?
I don't flirt with that man.
I flirt with him.
You do.
Both of you flirt.
And I'm curious to know who started it.
He did.
He did.
I mean, it's one thing to be cool with your man, your friend, have a bromance and all that.
But some of the stuff y'all say is crazy.
Like what?
Like if I was married.
Like what?
First of all, the little booty jokes and stuff.
All that is like overboard to me.
Tasha, let me tell you.
If I was your wife and I heard another man commenting about my man's butt.
I ain't never commented on his butt.
I ain't never commented on his butt. I ain't never commented on his butt.
Yes, both of you have.
Both of you have.
And if I was the wife, I know that you guys are just playing,
but it's like, man, it's so common.
Y'all always do it.
All right.
There's no moral of the story.
Stop flirting with me.
The moral of the story is, let's get a room.
What?
I ain't playing with you. This guy is crazy. It's get a room. What? That guy's crazy.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going.
That's what my podcast Post Run High is all about.
It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories,
their journeys, and the thoughts that arise
once we've hit the pavement together.
You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout.
Well,
that's when the real magic happens.
So if you love hearing real inspiring stories from the people,
you know,
follow and admire,
join me every week for post run high.
It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart
of it all.
It's lighthearted,
pretty crazy,
and very fun.

On Thanksgiving Day, 1999,
a five-year-old boy floated alone in the ocean.
He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba.
He looked like a little angel. I mean, he looked so fresh.
And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere.
Elian Gonzalez.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian. Elian.
Elian.
Elian Gonzalez.
At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with. His father
in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home
and he wanted to take his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother
died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation.
Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well. Listen to Chess Peace, the Elian Gonzalez story,
as part of the My Cultura podcast network,
available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist
who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered.
There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere,
a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture
of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country
into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price.
Listen to Crooks everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
A motherfucking legend in here smelling like fresh weed and fresh leather.
There you go. Snoop Dogg.
What up, though? What's happening?
Yeah, we've been giving the people that we feel deserve their flowers their flowers.
So we're giving you your flowers today.
There's not enough flowers for you.
There's really not.
We got some liquor for Snoop today.
Get on his side, not on my side.
Yeah, because he already drunk.
He been drinking all night.
Some Ace of Spades for you.
Oh, wow.
You gave me a whole bottle, too.
Y'all gave me a whole bottle.
You got fingerprints and shit on there.
This might be a re-gift.
I already know what it is.
We got food over there for you.
We got weed for you.
All types of s***.
Thank you, man.
I don't think Snoop wants our weed.
No, I really don't.
Yeah.
What you smoking nowadays, Snoop?
Bubble gum.
I got some bubble gum.
Cush from the Bay Area.
Is it indigo or sativa?
It's indigo.
Oh, nice.
Oh, I love indigo.
Oh, man.
Okay.
So Snoop, with all the stuff that you do, all the businesses, all the acting, everything, the music, the tours,
what made you say, you know what, you want to help Def Jam out?
Well, first of all, I'm a fan of Def Jam Records, and I just feel like I still have a lot in me.
I feel like I have a lot of information, wisdom, guidance, and tutelage for a lot of these artists.
It's not so much about me, because I'm not signed to Def Jam
as an artist. I'm only creative consultant
executive. So it's not about me as an artist.
It's more about me helping to develop artists
and put the spirit back in Def Jam
the way it's supposed to be. Now there was a period
when the West Coast saved Def Jam
before. Yeah, Warren G.
And my pen had something to do with that as well.
Oh Joe, you wrote on regular?
Like I said, my pen had something to do with that. That. Oh, Joe, you wrote on regular? Like I said, my pen had something to do with that.
That's a hip-hop tidbit we never knew.
I mean, because we was trying to protect the homie from Suge Knight at the time.
Suge was taking everything, so we wanted to make sure Warren G had a dope record
without him being able to get it.
So we silently, me and Corrupt and a few others,
went to work for Warren G to make sure that his record would be what it was.
Wow.
So y'all didn't mind him signing to Def Jam?
Y'all didn't want him?
We wanted him to sign with Def Jam.
We all wanted to be on Def Jam.
Def Jam was a dream label.
You got to understand, Public Enemy, Slick Rick, LL Cool J, EPMD.
You understand what I'm saying?
Like, this is foundation to hip hop for us.
And Def Jam was just the ultimate label.
They had the best street teams.
They had units of
people that would come there they had Rockefeller murdering rough riders they just everything was
attractive to Def Jam and I want that spirit back how do you get that back with so many artists
wanting to go independent and go to independent route and saying they don't need the labels how
do you get that how do you restore the feeling well Independence is good I respect that but
there's something called global and Independence don't give you that global approach
that some of these majors can give you.
You saw Meek Mill was saying he's never seen a check from his record label ever.
Is that a common thing for artists to sign to a label
and get your advance but then not see any money later?
Well, it's about that word recoup.
See, a lot of people don't mention that word.
When they put money up front, that means they want money back.
And if you haven't made the money based off of your record sales
or whatever your deal consists of, then you unrecouped.
And that, at times, leads you not to get any more money.
That's why they like giving you money up front so you can owe them.
But in the independence world, there's really no money up front.
It's you taking a risk and you receiving everything.
What about you with your first album?
Because your first album was one of the biggest
albums ever in the history of life.
I was fighting a murder case so I couldn't really
financially gain like I
needed to because my finances were spent
on the case to make sure that I was going to have
my freedom. Do you remember how much you had to spend on that?
Millions, like in the
tens.
You know what, we didn't say happy birthday to Snoop. Snoop just
turned 50 last week. Happy birthday, Snoop. How does 50 feel, man? When I see you 50, I'm like, You know what? We didn't say happy birthday to Snoop. Snoop just turned 50 last week. Happy birthday, Snoop.
How does 50 feel, man? When I see you
50, I'm like, you know what? I can
do it. Like I was telling one
of my homies when I was young, 50 was old.
You know, when you seen somebody 50, they'd be
walking with their back leant over.
Now we look at it like 50
is cool. I got six grandkids. I got
a beautiful wife, some kids at home
that love me, and I'm still doing what I do. I don't feel like I'm getting old. I got six grandkids. I got a beautiful wife, some kids at home that love me, and I'm still doing
what I do. I don't feel like I'm getting old. I feel
like I'm getting better. I feel like the
information and the knowledge that I have now
could be used to spread
around to the people who call me Uncle
Snoop. So now I can give them real information
and treat my nephews and nieces the right
way by giving them game that they need. And edges
laid like a mother f***er hair healthy.
Come on, Charlamagne.
You know I come from that side of the family.
Well, you know.
No, because there's a lot of brothers
that ain't going to say no name.
I'm looking at one.
Their dredges hanging on.
I'm looking at one right now
that ain't got no hair in the corner.
Forget me.
I'm talking about the dredges
that be holding on like,
man, let me go.
Not another day.
What did the pandemic teach you?
Actually, it's what I love because I love being to myself.
I love being self-centered and being able to breathe and to think and to be creative.
It taught me that people need to understand what life is about and really, you know, treasure it and spend time with their loved ones because you never know when they're going to leave.
Just lost my mom a couple of days ago.
Sorry to hear that.
Thank you.
It's like it's heavy on my heart.
But at the same time, I know that these are things that she loved for me to do, to make people smile, to make people laugh, to spread joy.
So the pandemic taught me to love people more, to be more up close and personal and to be more understanding because it's a lot of mental
health going on and we all have it but we just ashamed to say it so i'm just wanting to be up
front about it to say yeah we all deal with mental health issues and the pandemic showed me how to be
a better person when dealing with other people and myself is that why the song i love anxiety
with uh how you pronounce the name malaya yeah malaya man that anxiety record so so hard right because we go through that right yeah it feels like we all go through
that but it's starting to become cool to talk about you know if you said it maybe five years
ago people look at you like you crazy no i just want some help i just want to know what's going
on in my head maybe i'm traumatized from my family from the 50s or the 40s from the slavery
and the segregation and it's
spilling off
into my DNA
you never know
I've been going
to therapy
once a week
for like 5 years
now
do it work?
yeah
I mean
but you know
it's not just therapy
therapy gives you
the language
and the understanding
of what it is
you're going through
but then you gotta
actually start doing
real processes
to heal
for real
for real
it seems like when you get in therapy, the most drama comes your way
because it's going to test you to see if the therapy is actually working.
Absolutely. Do you go?
Me and my wife went to therapy about, like, maybe 12 years ago
because we was having some rough times,
and I spoke to a couple of friends of mine, and they was like,
man, it ain't going to get no better if you and her just keep arguing
and trying to figure it out. You need to put somebody in the middle who gonna play
no sides and when we went to go see the therapist it was the best thing that could happen to us
because we had somebody that wasn't on my side or her side it was just on the truth and it helped us
become a better you know a better family to understand how to deal with each other and then
condolences too on your queen man absolutely thank you i heard that uh what's the song um the song with d smoke and wiz khalifa uh steady trying to deal
with this pain man when i heard that i'm like and that's the last song different now it doing you
know what's crazy the artist camino from mississippi shout out to camino he was calling me like don't
put this album out without me being on it let me get on it please and he sent me that song
and i heard it
and I was like
this is dope
but I wasn't listening to it
for that reason
I was just like
it's dope
and he was like
I want Wiz on that
put Wiz and D Smoke
then I'm dealing with life
and then my mother passed
and I'm like
why is this the last song
on the album
this is God
this is the angel
this is what she wanted me
to see that
you're gonna deal with this pain
but you gotta push forward
alright we got more with Snoop.
When we come back, don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Snoop.
Now, let's talk about this album.
What was your mind frame on this album?
Because there's some songs you're rapping on it, some songs you're just letting people go, some songs you're talking.
So what was the mind frame of doing this album?
Algorithm.
The algorithm is f***ed up right now.
It's based off of computers and some machine
telling you what's hot, what's not, and what to play.
When it used to be, DJs would fill records on the streets,
come bring their motherf***ers in here,
break that s***, and let it be what it be.
So that's what I'm doing with this algorithm project.
I'm just making great music with artists, myself,
established artists, new artists, producers that I love,
and just trying to put feeling back in music
because music just sounds good.
It don't feel good no more.
Now I'm going to tell you something.
Now I'm slapped.
I came here this morning and said that,
but it's not a Snoop album.
No, it's not.
Yeah, it's a compilation.
Okay.
It's just using me as the front guy
to get the attention and the awareness on Def Jam and what I plan on doing at Dev Jam.
You put my name out there and say, this is a Snoop Dogg project.
Then you start listening.
You're like, damn, it's got a Mary J. Blige song, an Usher song, a new artist here.
Man, come on, Red Mav.
I came out here first.
That's what people don't know.
When I first got the Dev Jam situation, I wasn't even signed yet.
I flew out here and rented a studio.
And Who Kid helped me get it together.
And I went and got Benny the Butcher and a bunch of rappers that I knew that was hot.
That record's so hot.
And pulled them all in and was like, I'm going to save New York first.
And what I mean by that is, it ain't hip-hop like it used to be out here.
And I'm going to **** from the West Coast saying that.
And I want hip-hop back in new york i want the feeling back so what i did was grab some artists
that i knew who represent hip-hop jadakiss red man method man benny the butcher buster rimes fab
dave east and put them on the project to let new york know that i feel the same way y'all feel
yeah buster busted everybody asked no i know that's hard to say. I ain't gonna say that. Benny got busy too and Kiss, but Busta was
really in his bag on that one.
Yeah, but he was last.
You know when you're the last thing you get to hear about
anybody else? That's right. And he requested that
record. I had played a snippet on Instagram
and Busta Rhymes called me.
Yo, General! Yo!
Send me that s***! What is that?
So I had to send him the track.
Who would you want to see, Since we're talking about Busta,
who would you want to see Busta go against on the Versus?
Busta Rhymes on the Versus.
Damn.
Me and him was just talking the other day.
He said, find me a worthy opponent.
Missy.
This s*** sound like Maximus on Gladiator.
Either Missy or LL.
I think LL.
I think that would be a good one.
Missy or LL.
LL would be the thing.
I wouldn't see.
I can't see Missy because there's too much respect between them two.
And there's no disrespect between LL and Busta,
but men tend to, it's a better duel as opposed to he's going to be nice to Missy.
He ain't going to be nice to LL, and LL ain't going to be nice to him.
I get what you're saying.
But performance-wise, I can see.
If he brings Spliff Star, it's a wrap.
You know Spliff.
You know he bringin' Spliff Star.
I'ma tell y'all this.
I said this s*** for the past 20 years.
It's only two motherf***ers I'm not getting on stage after.
Busta Rhymes and Spliff Star.
You thought I was gonna say two others?
I didn't go take two others.
No, s***.
Them two n***as, I will not.
I refuse to.
They are the epitome of showmanship,
just energy and what a show's supposed to be.
I used to go on tour with them, right?
And I used to get on after them,
and I used to be so mad
because sometimes the crowd be like,
we already out of energy.
We ain't got nothing left.
So as far as getting in the versus battle
with Busta Rhymes,
if he brings Spliffstar on the performance side,
it's curtains.
Tim could come out with Missy. They could do the
little shoulder stuff they used to do in the videos.
Missy would have her dancers. Coitins.
The last time you were up here,
I think it was two times ago, you were talking about
your top five, and you did mention Eminem.
We talked about that, and he got a little upset, but
we see you squashed it out. How was that conversation?
I know y'all had that conversation. Man, I love Eminem,
and the thing is that we love hip-hop
so much. We competitive.
We battle rappers.
So that was supposed to trigger that in him.
But we brothers and we family.
So we learned to appreciate each other for what we do and how we get out.
And we had a long conversation about the respect that we have for each other and the way we need to talk in public about each other.
And I felt like I was out of pocket.
You know what I'm saying?
And I apologize to him and I let him know. And I'm just better at myself. You know what I'm saying? And I apologized to him and I let him know.
And I'm just better at myself.
You know what I'm saying?
I make mistakes.
I ain't perfect.
I'm Snoop Dogg.
Well, cheers to the Super Bowl halftime show.
We went with Dre and Em.
What you know about that tip?
Mary J. Blige.
Hello.
How did you feel when you got that call?
In L.A.?
Dr. Dre is one of my closest associates.
So when I knew he got the call, I was figuring that I was going to get a call soon.
But to add Eminem, Kendrick, and Mary J. Blige is like special.
So what kind of Dre and Snoop we going to see now?
Because you know it's a lot of Dre and Snoop.
So what y'all going to do on the halftime show?
It is PG-13, but remember we made clean versions.
Okay, okay, okay.
I would want to hear some Death Row.
Yes. It's a lot of G-thing or something in there. I mean, that okay. I would want to hear some Death Row. Yes.
It slide a G thing or something in there.
I mean, that record just...
Definitely a G thing in there.
Got to have a G thing, right?
Yeah.
I definitely would want to hear, still representing for them gangsters all across the world.
And California love.
Got to do gin and juice.
Got to do California love, too.
But remember, it's not just me and him.
You got to let Eminem slide out and do his.
Nowadays, everybody, you know what I'm saying?
They got to bop that.
Then you got to let Kendrick come out and bop one with him.
And then I'm sure Mary J. Blige going to pop that thing.
She got one of them.
So I'm anxious to see exactly what the format and how it's going to roll out.
I'm just here to show up and show out and be there for my guy.
You think it was political that they had to have five hip-hop icons,
and Mary's the queen of hip-hop, so on the halftime show just to get it done?
Because I feel like it could have just been you and Dre,
and y'all could have bought everybody up.
It could have, but shout out to Jay-Z for going to war
and making that thing happen, putting the first hip-hop act on the stage.
And people don't give him credit for a lot of things that he do.
He moves his hand mysteriously behind the scenes.
And he does a lot of great things for people.
And I want to give him a shout-out for fighting for Dr. Dre.
Because I know that that's a part of my legacy that he fought for.
So I appreciate you.
I heard it was a fight between you and somebody, one other act.
They didn't want us up there?
I don't know if they didn't want y'all, but I just know it was a little.
Oh, they was going to say either them or us?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But come on, man.
It's LA.
Come on, man.
It's Inglewood.
It wouldn't have made no sense.
Long Beach, Compton, Inglewood.
Yeah, Taylor Swift wouldn't have made no sense.
Oh, man, please.
Come on.
Taylor Swift wouldn't have made no sense.
What is this?
I Heart Awards?
What's going on?
You've been begging Kanye to come out there and rush on the stage.
Kanye, I got a ticket for you, my nigga.
I got the back door open for you.
I'm going to let you in.
No, I'm just playing. Now, you got some really dope women artists on this album. Kanye, I got a ticket for you, my nigga. I got the back door open for you. I'm gonna let you in. No, I'm just playing.
Now, you got some really dope women artists on this album.
Was that intentional?
Very.
Okay.
Very intentional.
And a lot of it just came to me.
It just came my way.
Some of the artists just were brought to me.
And I didn't even have a deal at the time.
I just was making great music, and people was coming to the studio.
And I was like, damn, these females sound good.
And they don't sound like the girls I saw all right now and they saying something a little different
so i was like let me go in and make some records with them and we just made records and like that's
what i'm about right now i'm about just the feeling if it feel good feel good to you must
be good for you what inspires you to still make music because you know you do so much but you're
always in the studio you're always listening what inspires you to still listen and when i go out because i'm a dj too i get that dj
bread too absolutely when i go out now the dj bread went up after the pandemic well you better
know it boy especially if you can rap some of your own songs can you do that? I can do that. I can rap some of your songs.
I mean, if I had to choose, I mean, damn.
Snoop, DJ Anna, Envy.
Come on, man.
I would take Snoop too. You know what?
I'll get both.
Envy, just open up.
You know how I present it?
DJ Snoopadelic versus Snoop Dogg.
I saw that.
Wow.
So I'm giving you a little bit of everything.
And then when I'm out there DJing, I'm listening to music, right?
And I'm like, it don't feel good when you ain't got no new music and you're in the club and you gotta play
s*** 30 years ago or 25 years
ago, so it makes you want to say,
I need to get me a hot record right now.
So when the young rappers call me, if it's
NBA Youngboy or this rapper,
I'm quick to get with them. Sometimes
I don't even charge them, because it's about
knowing what they're about to do for me, but
thinking what I'm about to do for them.
Alright, well don't move, we got more with snoop when we come back it's the breakfast club
morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club
we're still kicking it with snoop charlamagne you know snoop you ever thought about doing a
documentary on you and your evolution i'm talking about from the beginning when you first came out
wild snoop bitches ain't holding tricks to 50-year-old
grandfather Snoop who has seen so much life has evolved as a man, a father, a husband.
Have you ever thought about that?
Just showing people that growth is possible?
Not really, but if I do it, I think you should probably interview me.
I think that'd be dope because you would get some good insight on your perspective.
You looking in from the outside.
You know what I'm saying?
You seen the Wild Snoop.
You seen the one that was on death row, the one
that grew up on no limit, the one that came
out with Pharrell that became a
father, became a football coach to where
I'm at now. So you would be able to have a different
perspective and I would like that because
it's a different angle. Absolutely. It's wild watching
you and Fat Joe change and evolve.
Right? And you know where most of our evolution
came from? At Minister Farrakhan's house
after Biggie got killed.
Wow.
I called Minister Farrakhan and I wanted to get with all of the rappers
and he helped me put together a day at his house.
In fact, Joe drove on a bus and he had some words for Ice Cube about,
you know, the West Side Connect as far as like how the East Coast loved Ice Cube
and protected him and had his back when NWA went bad on him.
And how could he do this?
But it was just a minor conversation that was needed.
And it made me respect Fat Joe because I seen he was a real man and he really loved Ice Cube.
And for him to say that, that took a lot of love to say that I'm hurt behind you doing that.
We love you and spoke for New York.
And me and him got real cool and close after that to where I watched him grow.
He watching me grow and just to be on his podcast, to be able to see us both hold that conversation
and be grown men. It's evolution. How do you and your wife manage to separate business from,
obviously that's a super personal relationship. You're married, but she's your manager. So are
there times that she can talk you like do things that you don't want to do or y'all bump heads?
That's some fly ass s*** though.
On the business.
Have your wife be a manager, that's fly.
Does she have the final say?
She got the only say.
Yes.
You know what I'm saying?
But that's what I needed because can't nobody else challenge me or, you know, put me in a level of understanding and respect now, especially in the business.
I mastered this s***.
It's called show business.
When I was on Death Row Records, I mastered the show.
When I got with Master P, I mastered this s***. It's called show business. When I was on Death Row Records, I mastered the show. When I got with Master P, I mastered the business.
And now I'm trying to extend that by bringing my family in so I can teach my family the show business.
In case something is to ever happen to me, my wife is in control of everything.
Not some other s*** over here that don't know me and my family and controlling my whole estate like some of my homies.
That's rest in peace.
It's people that's not even peace. Like, it's people
that's not even their color
running their shit
and running it up.
I don't want that.
I want my wife
and my grandkids
and my family
to have the rights
to Snoop Dogg everything.
Do you still smoke crazy?
What's the last time?
How long can Snoop
go without smoking?
I know you gave up
for one year.
I'm waiting for you
to get your hair up
so I can get back in my van.
You on the clock,
Envy,
while your boys lit up in here.
I know, but I would never do that again.
Now, 50 said you won't put the weed down for shooting.
That's what he did say.
I couldn't help it.
But when I was Pastor Swift, I did give myself a moment to find my character.
But Pastor Swift, he's a sinner that's changed his life.
So most preachers are like that. But Pastor Swift, he's a sinner that's changed his life. Okay.
You know, most preachers are like that.
They got to come from the world in order to express the world to you.
You can't be flawless and clean.
He's got to come from that side in order to be able to relate to you,
to know that he changed his life to help you try to change your life.
That's every human on this planet.
That's why I hate this whole cancel culture era that we're in.
How can they?
Exactly.
Humans will always feel purity test.
How many times you been canceled?
Because they canceled about seven times. I remember that. At can they? Exactly. Humans will always How many times you been canceled? Because they canceled
seven times.
I remember that.
At least once a year.
More than that.
But what does it mean?
Nothing.
That's the algorithm.
That's the algorithm.
That's some computer
telling people that
you don't like this
and don't like this.
But people are people
that have their own emotions,
their own feelings,
and you should be able
to speak for yourself
and not some majority
of people speak for you.
And we love you commentating the Olympics and all the fights to man
That's my lane. Yes, it seems like you enjoy it. That's so much fun. What is it snoops Lane? What can't you do? He can cook with Martha Stewart
I want to know what you've taught what you said no to
Bungee jumping
They wanted me to play a woman in some kind of TV show,
and they wanted me to wear a dress.
So I was like, next rapper.
You always seem so cool, calm, and collected.
Have you dealt with anxiety your whole life,
or is this something you're just noticing?
I think I dealt with it my whole life
because I grew up in a great neighborhood, but it was so much much going on and i was able to be out in the mix my
mother allowed me to go outside and and to be a kid you know i'm saying to learn and to grow and
i feel like it taught me how to deal with life because when you see life up close and personal
when you deal with death at an early age when you deal with life when you're dealing with
mental health it just prepares you to practice
to get ready for it as an adult.
So I feel like all of my things that I learned as a kid
prepared me as a man for what I'm dealing with now.
Yeah, I don't know how you're doing it this week, my brother.
I would have canceled everything.
Man, I wanted to.
I was, like, when I got the news,
I had, like, a show that night.
I went to my room, I cried a little bit,
and I was like, damn, what would my mama want me to do? She wouldn't want me to get in front of these people and give them a show, and I went to my room, I cried a little bit, and I was like, damn, what would my mama want me to do?
She wouldn't want me to get in front of these people and give them a show.
And I went out there and I gave it to them, and the last song I played was Stand By Me.
And it's a particular part of the song where it's saying, I won't cry, I won't cry.
And I took my glasses off and I didn't cry.
In my heart I wanted to, but I just was like, I can't.
And they was giving it back to
me and i was like i gotta keep doing this my mama talking to me telling me you better not stop you
better keep going and i'm gonna be with you the whole step of the way have you and dre got a
chance to love on each other because i know he just lost one of his anchors in his life and that's
crazy because i had called him and sent him a positive message the day before my mother passed
away just being his friend you know I'm saying he got the message
and he hit me back it's like and I posted I'm like yeah go ahead cuz you know people need to
know that how we get down behind closed doors and we really love each other and he posted in the next
day I get the nose by my mama and he hit me on FaceTime he's like man my mom does him and my mom
was cool just checking on me making sure i'm straight that's what we do
as brothers i got a lot of a lot of positive calls so that's why my spirit is right minister farrakhan
gave me probably the greatest prayer i ever heard in my life to let me know that my mother being out
of body is her being present with allah and that's that's the thrill of life to get to that point
100 we're sending you positive energy
love and light always snoop man because you you're such a light to the world so we got to make sure
that you always are where you need to be hey man i'm just a reflection of my mother man she
she taught me everything i know you know shout out to my daddy for being there and teaching me
how to be a man my mother taught me all of the love, the qualities that you see in me, the storytelling, the happiness, the fun, the joy.
That was my mother.
She was the life of the party.
You know what I'm saying?
She was all of that to me.
She was my best friend for my first 10 years in this world
until my little brother was born.
And then, you know what I'm saying?
You know how that go.
Absolutely.
With the little brother.
The little brother became my boy.
It had to be.
I got kids.
I understand.
You know what I'm saying?
That's why you're so loving because you definitely the type to be like, man kids, I understand. You know what I'm saying? That's why you so loving
because you definitely
the type to be like,
man,
oh,
y'all come eat,
man.
Come eat.
We got food over here.
That's how we get out.
My mother,
my mother is so special.
When my uncle,
you know,
he was on drugs
and he had a son,
which was my cousin
and he was in one of those homes.
I was like 13 years old
and my mother
talked to me and my brother
and she was like,
I'm going to adopt Marvin
and she went and adopted my little brother and gave him our last name and his birthday was on
the same day as mine and it didn't even i didn't even have no envy towards him i actually loved
him and i love my mother more now that i'm thinking about it for her looking out for family
and adopting him and giving him our last name and just showing that kind of love and that's who i
am to this day i'm like i'm an exact replication of who she is.
It's a beautiful thing that you were able to do great things for her too,
for her to see you blossom into who you are.
That was the beauty.
And you know what's crazy?
She dreamed of me being a preacher.
I can still see that happening.
Right.
But look at what I'm playing on BMX.
That's right.
Before she passed away.
It's like this is the spirit of everything just coming back full circle.
And I made a gospel album, right?
I made it for my mother and my grandmother.
My grandmother had passed away,
but when I had made the record,
I had my mother come to the studio
and I played it from top to bottom
with all of the musicians.
And she was so happy
because she was fighting for me
for so many years in the church to defend me.
And I didn't give her nothing to fight with.
Wow. And I finally gave her something. You us a man munition you know what she said she said now I don't have to talk no
more you can fight for yourself whoo that was heavy whoo I was happy you know
I always wondered like you know when you thought about like what see Dolores
Tucker was doing you back in the day did you ever you look back now say well she
was right kinda she was right all of them was right. We was young and dumb, and, you know, we needed aunties.
They just didn't know how to talk.
Yeah.
When you're an auntie, you got certain aunties that'll be like,
come over here, boy, let me talk to you.
Then you got certain aunties, I'm going to beat your ass, come here.
You run from them.
Exactly.
And that's what it was.
And remember, we were teenagers or either becoming young adults,
so we could use our voice back like, shut up.
You ain't talking to me like that. But if you got the right auntie you respect him and you like yeah, I teach you
Like Maxine we don't play no games with Maxine one. Yes, then I'm saying she's a frontliner and she's always been our
Auntie she's always put her arms around us and not try to scold us but teach us the big difference
Yeah, we got
to do that conversation because i mean your evolution alone it needs to be documented man
people need to see that hey i'm trying every day charlotte man i'm just trying to be better every
day at mastering me and once people understand how to master themselves then we're going to be
a better world instead of trying to duplicate it be like somebody else be yourself well listen
algorithm is coming out soon let's's Snoop go smoke, man.
November 12th.
We appreciate you for joining us, bro.
And Icon Living.
Hey, man, y'all got my spirit right.
I didn't know how I was going to be this morning.
We love you.
You got our spirit right, too.
I love y'all, too, man.
And this is what I'm supposed to be doing.
I'm supposed to be back in front of people, chopping it up,
representing my mama through the spirit of who I am.
Absolutely.
And being strong and being positive and not being sad and crying and being weak,
but celebrating a life
and just thanking God that I had an angel for a mother.
But that's not weak, though.
We love you, Snow.
Crying and giving yourself a moment to grieve,
that ain't weak at all.
That's human.
That's human.
Can we play a record off the album?
Mm-hmm.
Let's play Anxiety.
Go ahead.
Charlamagne requested Anxiety.
Let's play that Anxiety.
Charlamagne wants Anxiety.
All right. It's the requested anxiety. I play that anxiety. Charlamagne wants anxiety.
All right. It's the Breakfast Club.
This is America.
There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community.
Yes, you are a donkey.
The latest on that police killing of a black man.
Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage.
And yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did.
And so we are in a state of emergency.
Okay, white supremacist violence
is and always has been the number one
threat to our society. But I'm also
very proud that my wife is white.
The breakfast club,
bitches. Alright, Charlene, please tell me
why was I your donkey of the day?
Hey, donkey of the day goes to Abigail Elphick.
Boy, when I tell you the mayonnaise is heavy on this one, I'm talking Hellman's on Hellman's on Hellman's.
I mean, this is a high-fat condiment made from egg yolks, vinegar, and lemon juice if I've ever seen one.
If you ever wanted to know why too much goddamn mayonnaise ruins a dish, this is it.
Now, I am a resident of New Jersey, a native of South Carolina, resident of New Jersey.
All my kids are Jersey born except for my first one.
She was born in Manhattan.
Here I go oversharing again.
I'm saying all that to say in New Jersey, there is a mall that my wife likes to frequent.
She used to frequent often, not as much anymore.
And that is Short Hills Mall.
Anjali, you're a frequent visitor of Short Hills Mall. I was just there last week. How would you describe Short Hills Mall? Anjali Yee, you're a frequent visitor of Short Hills Mall.
I was just there last week.
How would you describe Short Hills Mall?
Is it high-end?
Yeah, it's very high-end.
It has a Neiman Marcus.
It has Chanel.
They got the Herm store, the Louis Vuitton.
Hermes.
Christian Louboutin.
The Channel store.
They even have Restoration Hardware, a full store there.
Yeah, high-end stuff that I can't pronounce,
nor do I care to learn to pronounce.
They did close Saks, though. They did close Saks, yeah. Oh, well. I stuff that I can't pronounce, nor do I care to learn to pronounce.
They did close Saks, yeah.
Oh, well.
I can't pronounce none of that stuff. My mom used to work in that mall.
Fendi.
Okay.
I only care to pronounce black-owned luxury brands correctly, but Short Hills is a high-end mall.
But this weekend, they were infiltrated by the ghetto.
I mean, seriously, they might need to vaccinate the whole mall because Abigail Elphick pulled up and displayed a lack of class, education and manners.
I mean, just dangerously ratchet ass behavior.
I am currently reading a great book called My Grandmother's Hands,
racialized trauma and the pathway to mending our hearts and bodies.
And Chapter seven discusses exactly what we saw on display in Short Hills Mall.
And that's white fragility. Also, the title of a great book by Robin DiAngelo.
Now, what did Abigail's ghetto ass do she savagely
ferociously attacked and attempted to maul a black woman i don't want to mess this sister's
name up her name looks like a store that's way too expensive it showed her what is it
ig yoma ukenta ig yoma ukenta i think beyonce got that new ukenta bag don't she oh no that's
the tell far that new ukenta not in yet but't she? Oh, that's the Telfar. That new Uquinta not in yet.
But Queen Uquinta was just trying to buy some damn clean drawers.
All she wanted was some no-show cheeky panties.
Maybe some corded thong panties.
Maybe she was getting a five-pack of cotton lace waist cheeky panties.
I don't know because it doesn't seem.
You know too much about panties, bro.
Well, I have a wife.
I'm sorry that you don't.
I don't know.
You wear them the way you know them.
Okay.
Deesh. But I don't know what kind of panty she bought because it doesn't seem like she got the opportunity to do this because she was bombarded by this thug named Abigail Elphick.
OK, who was chasing her around the store and then charged at her with her hands open, ready to strike.
Oh, Abigail chose violence for 500, Alex, until she realized that Queen ukinta was recording okay recording the whole exchange now what happened when abigail realized queen ukinta was recording
mayonnaise all right that's what happened just mayonnaise spread all over everything
and victoria's secrets would you like to hear the type of white fragility that has been sending
black people to early graves for years well listen okay no it's you it's you uh uh now you are oh my god
do you see this i never thought nothing like this would happen to me she just tried to run and hit
me and now she did you see her they all saw her karen had a breakdown She tried to hit me. Ask your workers.
She tried to hit me.
I didn't try to hit you.
Please don't record me.
I just came to get my free panty.
You know how you get the coupon in the mail.
Yes.
No, why don't she walk away from me? We're not doing this.
She's recording me.
Tell her to stop.
You keep lying saying I'm threatening you, so I'm recording to protect myself.
No!
Get her!
Get away from me!
No!
Get away from me!
Oh, y'all better get this lady!
White people.
I'm so mad when that coupon expires and I didn't get my free panties from Victoria's Secret.
Yeah, she was wilding this up.
Excuse me, can you find me these panties, please?
I love it.
Love it!
The audio doesn't know justice.
You really have to go watch this video to watch how whiteness works.
Didn't D. Ray McKesson used to say something like that?
Watch whiteness work.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is white fragility on full display.
If you want to know why some people push back on the concept of believe all women,
look no further than Abigail Elphick.
Those are the same white tears that caused Emmett Till to be murdered.
All right, because of Carolyn Bryant,
who lied about Emmett Till sexually harassing her
in a grocery store.
Oh, we talk about Black Wall Street
being burned to the ground, but do you know why?
It all started after an elevator encounter
between a 17-year-old white woman named Sarah Page
and a 19-year-old black man named Dick Rowland.
It was alleged that Rowland had assaulted Page
in the elevator, which he denied, but it didn't matter.
Okay, news of a black man's alleged assault of a white woman spread like wildfire throughout the
white community of tulsa they formed a racial mob and burned black wall street down abigail
elfick knew exactly what she was doing and why she was doing it because in america whiteness means
fragility okay white people listen only you can prevent forest fires.
OK, I don't believe white people are inherently racist, but I do believe this American system is inherently racist.
And when you are a white person who does things like this and you know that this system is inherently racist, then you are weaponizing your whiteness against me.
Therefore, you are racist, too. Now, how do we fix this? I don't know. Okay, I really don't.
What about when she laid on the floor like she was dead?
I was like, why is she laying on the floor?
Because that's how whiteness works.
She was weaponizing her whiteness, her white fragility against, you know, this dangerous black skin that this sister possessed.
Well, it's crazy that nobody was doing anything.
Nothing.
She was in there for like 10 minutes going off,
and nobody did anything.
Nobody intervened,
security didn't escort the woman out.
I don't know how we fixed this.
I don't know, but my grandmother's hands,
the book that I referenced earlier,
has some answers.
What should we do in regards to white fragility?
Well, I have a piece of the audio version,
courtesy of Audible.
It's a couple minutes long, but I want to teach my white brothers and sisters this morning.
How do we solve white fragility?
I don't know, but listen.
A common form of white fragility involves a strong and immediate defensive response whenever a white body is challenged on the subject of race and equality or whenever the topic of race emerges.
This has inspired a contorted form of white self-talk.
We white people are incapable of soothing ourselves
and feeling safe in the presence of black bodies.
White fragility is a reflexive, protective response.
A way for the white body to avoid experiencing the pain of its historical trauma
inflicted by other white bodies.
Many white Americans need to be confronted firmly and compassionately on their white
fragility.
Much of that fragility is a trauma-driven lizard brain defensiveness that quickly fights,
flees from, or freezes out all such caring confrontation.
There is only one way through this stalemate.
White Americans must accept, explore explore and mend their centuries-old
trauma around oppression and victimization whiteness does not equal fragility nope that's
a dodge created by white fragility itself yep it's a way for white americans to avoid the
responsibility of soothing themselves facts metabolizing their own historical and secondary trauma, accepting and moving through clean pain, and growing up.
Growing the hell up.

their journeys, and the thoughts that arise
once we've hit the pavement together.

happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist
who on October 16, 2017, was murdered.
There are crooks everywhere you look now.
The situation is desperate.
My name is Manuel Delia.
I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere,
a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks.
Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption
that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state.
And she paid the ultimate price.

On Thanksgiving Day 1999, a five-year-old
boy floated alone in the ocean.
He had lost his
mother trying to reach Florida
from Cuba. He looked like a little angel.
I mean, he looked so fresh.
And his name, Elian Gonzalez,
will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere.
At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with.
His father in Cuba.
Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or his relatives in Miami.
Imagine that your mother died trying
to get you to freedom. At the
heart of it all is still this painful
family separation. Something
that as a Cuban, I know
all too well. Listen

story, as part of the

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, it's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy
We are The Breakfast Club
It's time for Ask Yee
Hello, who's this?
My name is Duchess
Hey Duchess, what's your question for Yee?
So, my best friend of 20 years
Broke up with me
Because she said that I've changed
And I'm high and mighty
So I started a podcast
And when I get invited to things Because I'm high and mighty. So I started a podcast. And when I get invited to things,
because I'm a small cry,
you only get one invitation.
Or if you get two,
I take my husband.
And so like she sees the promo pictures afterwards
and she'll be like,
oh, you got invited to something?
You too good for me?
And I'm like, that's not the case.
You know, I want to say this.
There might be some things going on in her life and she might be projecting that onto you.
Yeah.
And you're her best friend.
So I'm sure, you know, it feels like maybe there's some things that she's disappointed about that she doesn't have going on.
Maybe things are advancing for you and she doesn't know how to handle it.
Yeah.
I mean, if I was to a point where if I got invited to stuff
and they're like, oh, bring five friends, absolutely.
She would definitely be in the five friends
or maybe even the three friends too.
But, like, when I get invited to stuff, I can't bring an entourage
because I just got started in the podcast game.
Right, and she doesn't understand that.
What the hell are live in that people
inviting you to places because you got a podcast?
Well, it's like virtual
things right now because of COVID.
But I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
So she must be able to come to these virtual events
and maybe be supportive of you?
Yeah. I mean, I guess so.
But at the same time, if I
have an event, then buy a ticket, sis.
You can't invite me to a zoom event
i'll beat you up that's give me that goddamn link the hell's wrong with you i want to say listen
i just want to say that the most amazing friends are the people that support you and support also
doesn't mean i gotta get in free everywhere that also means maybe i spend a few dollars
because i see what it is that you're trying to do. And like speaking of free stuff, like she very seldom does she ever share my podcast.
Like, are you really a supporter
or you just want to go to these nice things
that I get to go to?
It's a Zoom event.
What does she have going on in her,
like things going well for her on her end?
I thought that they was.
Like she has like a little Cake pop business
And like I'm always sharing her stuff
I said a little cake pop business
You heard that hate in me?
You got a little cake pop business
You a hater
You a hater
I have a little podcast
Well you know I'm feeling kind of
Salty because she heard my feelings last night
You know it seems like y'all just had A little blow out and some things have Well, you know, I'm feeling kind of saucy because she heard my feelings last night.
You know, it seems like y'all just had a little blowout and some things have simmered and then it exploded.
But I don't feel like this is the end of it for you guys.
It just feels like there's some unresolved things that are underlying under this.
The best thing you can do is ask her, what do you want us to do moving forward?
What can I do to be a better friend?
And y'all got to be open and honest and willing to hear each other.
And when she tells you how she feels,
you have to be willing to listen and be open to receive that.
Gotcha. Gotcha.
Sometimes it's very simple. I mean, look,
the best thing you could do right now is order some items
from her little cake pot business.
Y'all so foul, man.
Y'all so foul.
She made me mad. She said some really
mean things to me last night, like
stuff you think
abroad on the street would say I almost cussed.
I had to make sure. I had to keep it together.
She said some really hurtful things
to me.
I worked really hard
on this podcast and building
the brand up. What is this podcast?
We want to know because you on the Breakfast Club
and you haven't said the name of it once.
Oh, the name of the podcast is called
The Cashmere Room. It's like adult
story time where I tell
sexy stories. Tell us one
now. Tell us one now. Tell us one now.
Tell us one now. So it was
the first night of the first
full moon of 2019
and I decided to touch myself.
I touched my arms and my shoulders, my legs.
I gave myself some good self-love.
I turned myself into a goddess right before the moon.
You got a podcast about masturbation?
No, she tells different stories.
I see your last one
was on your
submissive persona.
You have a submissive persona.
Yes, yes.
Okay.
You found it already?
It comes right up.
I tell a lot of
story time.
So it's like
erotic poetry.
Oh, let me tell you what.
Why don't you do
a sexy story
involving her
little cake pops?
Ooh, yes.
That's a good idea.
Then y'all can do something together.
Yeah.
That's what y'all need to do.
Y'all friends, y'all got to collaborate.
I gave her a little anal swab with a cake pop.
Ooh, you're so nasty.
But it's got to be artistically nasty, though.
But I like it.
I like it.
You can't just be shoving a cake pop up your butt for no reason.
No. You're going to get lost.
Hey, how else are we going to get the chocolate in this
German cake?
What is wrong with you, man?
You've been kinky all morning. I'm glad I'm not in the studio.
You've been kinky all morning long.
Charlamagne, you definitely need to listen to
the stories. Listen, you
and your best friend should do a podcast episode
together. Yeah. Why is
Charlamagne's hand under the desk right now? Look at Charlamagne.
Why is his hand under the desk?
Because the Duchess got him going.
I got him going.
You got him going.
I tell stories. I don't have
interviews, but I think that you're right.
If I offer her like
a promo commercial in
one of my podcasts, I think that, you know, and send her like some flowers or something today.
Like, let's bury the hatchet because we've been friends too long to let this thing come between us.
Y'all can't let your egos make you guys not be friends anymore, you know?
We thought I'd partner with you and bring you on the Black Effect.
She would really hit you then.
I know, right?
I may have to bring her with me. I may have to bring her with me.
I may have to bring her with me.
No, we don't have that kind of budget.
See, we made it.
We ain't got that kind of budget.
Well, she out of luck.
All right, well, you did a good job, Dutch.
You got Charlamagne sweating, so you know you did a good job.
Yay!
This is different.
I'm looking at it.
I like the presentation.
Erotica stories, poems, and monologues with Dutch's cashmere.
I got a new one coming out very soon.
Okay.
Your friend really ain't messing with you no more.
If I can get me and my best friend back together.
But I think that's going to be a good idea if I just partner with her some kind of way.
And kind of show, I'm not trying to leave her.
I'm really not.
I'm just trying to take myself up.
All right, good.
Well, I like that.
See, look at how quickly you turned that around.
We love it.
I love her. I hope she at how quickly you turned that around. We love it. I love her.
I hope she's listening because she listens every morning. I hope she's listening so I can be
girl, I love you. I want us
to be back friends again. Like, this is
not conducive to...
You gotta write a poem. Write a poem called
Cake Pops and really express your love.
I'm serious.
You also did not
plug her cake-pop business.
It's called Paula's Cakes in Corpus Christi, Texas.
She gonna love you now.
All right.
Ask Yee, 805-85-1051.
If you need relationship advice, hit it now at The Breakfast Club.
Go for it.
Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's Ask Yee.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Chicken.
Hey, what's your question for Yee?
Hey, Angela.
Hey, girl.
Okay.
Well, I am 27, and I've been having this insecurity all my life since I've been having sex with getting on top.
Okay.
I have a boyfriend that I'm with, and we've been together for two years now.
And in those years, we've done it twice where I've gotten on top.
But I think it's the insecurity thing, and I actually just really don't know how.
So I'm just trying don't know how.
So I'm just trying to, you know, get some advice on what I need to do.
Is it like a rhythm thing or is it being so exposed that you're on top and he's looking at you?
Like, he can see you and see everything.
Honestly, I think that might be what it is.
Because let me tell you something.
He obviously loves what he sees.
And I'm sure for him, the visual of seeing you on top is just amazing.
And sometimes I think we put too much on ourselves and worry about how we look.
But trust me, guys seeing his girl naked on top of him, no matter what insecurities you might have about your body, he loves everything about it.
He tells me that.
And I mean, and I listen to him and I love him just as much as he loves me.
It's just, I guess, I don't know.
I just be, I don't know.
Sometimes I even like,
if I'm in the bathroom and stuff like that,
I'm covered until we get in a bed.
Like, I don't know.
I think this is my whole body thing. Like I'm insecure about.
And he wouldn't be with you.
And I'm sure that he,
I'm trying to think of the right word to use.
Can I say ejaculate?
I'm sure that he ejaculates every time, right?
Yeah, he does.
Well, clearly he likes what he sees
and he likes how it feels.
And you have to trust that.
He's looking at you
and he's seeing something amazing
and you're looking at you
and being too critical of yourself.
And I will say,
if there's things about yourself
that you don't like,
that you feel like, okay,
you know, maybe I need to work on
this, that's fine. You can work on things on
yourself, but he loves you how you are.
He wouldn't be with you. And he wouldn't want you
to be on time.
I think more or less
with my stomach and stuff or whatever, I would talk
to him about lipo and he was just like,
I would not like that if you
went and did that. I think you're fine how you
are. And, you know, so, yeah, you're right.
You're right.
I'm doing a detox if you want to do the detox with me.
And I'll send you the meal plan, the detox now.
But sometimes it's just little things that can give you some more confidence.
But I promise you, this is how you start off on top because that is one of the best positions.
And for a lot of women, it's the easiest way for us to have an orgasm
because of the positioning.
But I will say maybe you start off on top
where you're laying on top of him.
You don't necessarily have to be sitting up
and then you can advance to that
where you drop it on him.
But maybe you just lay on top
so you're not feeling so self-conscious
until you feel more confident in that.
And do it at night.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, have a little candle lit.
So it's just like you just see the silhouette and then and then you'll feel more confidence.
But trust and believe your man loves what he sees.
And that's a beautiful thing.
And men love confidence, too.
Yeah, they do.
When I'm feeling my best, it makes them happy.
And don't be afraid to do that reverse count, girl, too. You know, turn
around.
Okay?
Get more of it.
Alright.
Peace, peace, peace,
queen. How are you? Have a good
night tonight. I think you should
sleep tonight. Alright, mama. Have fun
tonight, alright? I will.
Alright. And that cry Baby Challenge on that.
Ask Yee.
What?
800-585-1051.
What the hell is the Cry Baby Challenge?
He's done it before for sure.
All right, we got more.
Don't move.
It's the best of The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club.
It's that time again.
Ask Charlamagne and DJ Envy anything.
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up.
It's time to ask C&E.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now it's time for Ask C&E.
Angela Yee is out, so Charlamagne and I will be holding it down.
So let's go to the callers.
Hello, who's this?
Hello?
Hey, what's up, bro?
What's your question for C&E?
Order me something, man. Order me something, man.
Get me something. Hey, Charlamagne.
Yeah. Listen,
I got a question for you real quick.
I've been married for like
17, 18 years, right?
I'm disabled, military. I got 100% disability.
I originally called
to say something about my
wife, but if there's any way, look, I need your help.
I needed your help like a year ago.
Because one of my disabilities is like PTSD and all that stuff.
And I almost killed myself.
I got two kids, right?
And the reason why I'm calling you is because you always speak about mental health, right?
Yes, sir.
And I'm Dominican.
I'm Dominican, right?
So we don't believe in that stuff, just like black people.
You know what I mean?
I consider myself black.
Not that I consider myself black.
That's not what I'm saying.
I get what you're saying.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
I want you to take my number because I'm going to need you.
You know what I'm saying?
Because I'm getting help right now with my mental health. You know what I'm saying? Because I'm getting help right now with my mental health, you know what I'm saying?
And I'm getting better.
But what I'm saying is I tried to call this radio station before because I feel like,
you know how sometimes God tells you, like, do something,
and you either listen to it or you don't, you know what I'm saying?
So I was calling you back then when I was in my darkest place
because I feel that you had the answer to help me out.
Well, I tell you what, I don't have all the answers.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm still going on my journey just like you going on your journey.
But I do have a lot of resources and a lot of people that you can talk to, people that, you know, have helped me get through.
And I have no problem sharing those resources with you, my Dominican brother.
Okay?
Well, hold on.
Hold on one second.
We're not going to hang up. We're going to get your information.
I got a real question for the brother, though.
Oh, go ahead. Go ahead.
Ask me the question. You're Dominican, right?
Yes, sir. How many
pair of white jeans do you own or have you
owned throughout your life?
Seriously.
Seriously, probably
like once or twice because there was a white
party and I needed to buy everything white.
Okay, okay.
All Dominicans don't have white jeans, Charlamagne.
Hold on, man.
I didn't say that.
You asked that man about his white jeans, man.
I'm about to get your number.
Leave your number with the producer.
I'm going to hit you in the show over in like an hour, all right?
Goodness gracious.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Magic.
Magic, what's up?
What's your question for T&E?
Yo, man, I got some questions, man.
A little relationship problem I got going on right now.
Been with my girl for a year.
She got three kids, and she pregnant now with the fourth one by me.
This is my first one.
But it ain't easy for me, man.
She got three from another man.
No, she got three different baby daddies.
Well, she has four now, four baby daddies now.
But go ahead.
Okay.
Yeah, and it's been rough for me, man.
Like, I go through hell.
I do everything she has me to do. Basically, I've been a dude boy for her since she's been pregnant.
And she calling me selfish just because, like, I complain or something like that
for getting up in the middle of the night and doing something for her.
Like, I'm doing this old shit up, but.
She don't respect you, bro.
It's kind of hard to respect the fourth baby daddy.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm scared for my life, though, for real, man.
Why are you scared for your life?
Did she put hands on you?
Yeah, she has.
She has.
Yeah.
Yeah.

This is easy for me to say, bro.
