Wow, he had two jokes, Envy.
I didn't hear either one.
Oh, he's still here.
How did he do that?
Okay, come on, Snackman.
Envy's going to love this one.
I already know.
Yeah, I decided to steal my new car,
and that's not the best part.
My new car has a backup camera,
so on my last date,
while we were in the park,
I decided to put the car in reverse,
get out,
and do my stand-up routine behind it.
Thank you.

Okay, I'm done.

Jada, how old are you?

Oh, okay.
Well, give me all your tests.
Amy always does this.
I know, right?
It's not like I'm like 14.
I know, I know.
I just love y'all.
I just want to give all my tests.
Like, I'm kind of frustrated that they got my babies going back to school.
They're sick and pain.
Like, they can't get back to me.
Yeah, it's scary.
When my kids went back, I mean, the kids are all wearing masks now,
and they're comfortable with the mask, which is pretty good.
And my kids, when they leave the house, they got their mask on.
They're so nervous.
But it's one of the things you just got to pray pray tell them to wear their mask and wash their hands every
chance they get you ain't lying oh my god i'm not i love y'all i love you more love you back
hello who's this this jason good morning guys how is everyone jason good morning. You're up in chess, bro. Oh, man. Well, I just got a house built.
Me and my fiance have 10 years.
We closed on the house early this year,
only for her to cheat on me a month later.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Damn.
Yeah.
We got two kids, two dogs.
Now the question is, what do I do next?
Oh, man.
And the house is in both of your names. Correct. Yeah. Oh, man.
And the house is in both of your names?
Correct, yes.
And there's no working it out?
I mean, there is, because I truly do love her,
but it just seems like there's that tension now, and everything just leads to an argument,
and it's not the same.
Yeah, sorry for you, bro.
Yeah, you got to just take your time with that one
until you see what's going to happen.
But it is harder now that you guys have a house.
Did y'all have, like, a prenup or anything?
They're not married.
No, we're not married.
Oh, you're not married.
Yeah.
Is she apologetic?
Is she trying to work it out?
Or is she just, like, eff it?
She is.
But, I mean, I don't know if it's me and my insecurities
where, you know, it's like there's red flags here and there.
And, you know, it's just, it's hard.
Because it happened year one, and we got through it, we got past it, and then now we're going on year 10, and it happened again.
Oh, it sounds like she's a habitual cheater.
Is there a way that you can buy her out of her part that she put down for the house?
I've thought about it, but, I mean, it's the kids.
I mean, we got two kids.
I would essentially lose everything, the house, the kids.
I work a lot.
She takes the kids.
Damn.
Right.
Well, I'm sorry, bro.
Yeah, you just got to keep on keeping on, though, right?
That's all.
You ain't got no choice, brother.
The world keeps moving.
And it's okay to feel however you feel.
I know it's not an easy thing to deal with.
Right.
All right, brother.
Damn.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Chandler from Columbus, Ohio.
Good morning.
Good morning.
What's up, bro?
Get off your chest.
Well, I'm calling a slander, y'all, because a lot of y'all slander us this way.
Angela Yee, you got to quit being cheap and just pay for your meter.
Every time y'all get good and talk about some stuff,
your phone go off because you don't pay for your meter.
Just pay for your meter.
Well, I am paying for my meter.
That's why the phone goes off because it has certain times that you got to pay for it.
So as soon as it starts, it's either 8 o'clock or 9 o'clock.
My phone goes off to remind me
so I don't forget.
There's parking lots
all around this place.
You can park in a parking lot.
It's actually really far
and it's too early
in the morning.
There used to be a parking lot
right across the street
and it closed.
So now the other ones
are far.
It's kind of dark
in the morning
to walk here.
So I don't want to park
like three blocks away
and then walk here
in the dark.
I understand.
I understand.
And Charlamagne, man, you got to quit saying the N-word so much,
and you got to come to work on time.
You was doing good for a while, but you got to come to work on time.
I feel you, brother. I'm trying.
I'm just doing my best, King.
But get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
This is your time to get it off your chest. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. James!
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
So you better have the same energy.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's going on? My name is James.
James, what up? Get it off your chest.
I just found out my daughter isn't mine biologically, and I'm going through a lot of emotions right now.
Damn.
How old is she?
I had a homeboy that happened to back in the day, man.
How old is she?
Yeah.
She'll be 10 in a couple of weeks.
Damn.
Well, I'm going to tell you something.
There's no getting out of her life now.
I know that sounds crazy, but it's true.
Like, I had a homeboy that happened to,
but once you have that emotional, spiritual connection with a child, like, you know, you're not you're not you can't turn that off.
Yeah, most definitely not. That's always my baby girl.
What made you get tested?
Well, I didn't have the resources before because I was on child support going back and forth with my daughter's mom.
But I got a new job, so I was able to scrap up the money and actually do this act.
Well, I'm sending you Healing Energy, King,
and just remember that's not that child's fault, man.
And, you know, you got to look at it on a different angle.
You know, you're the person that God put in her life to raise her
and be her father figure.
You know what I mean?
I didn't even think about it like that.
But you don't got to pay child support no more.
You can just raise and pay what you want to pay, correct?
I don't know.
Nah.
According to New York State, I got to.
Yeah, I think you still have to pay.
Yeah, but I think, honestly, man,
10 years old, you been with that young lady 10 years, you probably
want to, you know? He might not wanna pay
the mother, though. He might just wanna, you know, take care of his daughter.
Exactly. It's a weird
law, though, that even though you find out a
child's not yours, you've been raising her as if
she is yours, and then you still have to continue
to pay child support?
Yeah. Where's her biological father,
King? No clue.
See, that's my point.
That's why I say, you know, God put you in that
young lady's life for a reason, man, so
you know, hold that position
down. He shouldn't have to pay child support, though.
Yeah, I shouldn't.
Nah, not at all. I'm looking into lawyers
now so I can try and take care of this situation.
I'll always be there for her, but I
don't want to support her mother anymore. Absolutely.
I agree with you, too, brother. I get it.
Alright, man. Have a good one, man. God bless you, brother.
Alright. Hello,
who's this? Hey, hello.
I just want to say peace and blessings. Good morning,
everybody. Sean Stone, what's happening,
brother? What's up? Shala made a God. What's up, Angela Yee? What's up, CJ blessings. Good morning, everybody. Sean Stone, what's happening, brother? What's up?

What's up, Angela Yee?
What's up, CJ Envy?
Yes, sir.
Red, you never speak, but what's up?
Red?
Red say I don't ever speak.
He's still not speaking.
Hey, I just want to shout out my boy real quick.
He just came out with a new project.
His name is Haitian Steve underscore.
He's Haitian, obviously.
No way.
Y'all can go follow him on by H-A-I-T-I-A-N, Steve, S-T-E-V-E underscore.
And what I want to tell y'all is a story.
So last week, I was coming off the train in Wolf Ridge.
And I come off the train and I see a black dude on the platform.
So I say, what's up?
I give him the head nod.
Like when black people see each other we give each other
the head nod. Right. But he gave
me the head nod and started smiling at
me. Crazy. What's wrong with that?
No but it was a crazy
smile. It was like a hey.
Like I want to holler at you. Smile. Listen
Sean Stone don't get down that way man. Are you
Sean Stone? Why can't you just take it
as a compliment? So why are you referring
to yourself as Sean Stone and not I?
Listen, the matter of fact is, I went down the stairs.
When I looked behind me, this dude is following me.
So I said, hey, why are you following me, man?
So he was like, no, and then ran back upstairs and hopped on the train.
Crazy.
All right.
You shouldn't be winking at brothers on the train, on the platform, bro.
Hey, I didn't wink.
I said, what's up?
I had not.
Had not.
That's not a wink, bro.
Okay.

But you suffer from, like, survivor's remorse?
Kind of.

It's just that, you know, I just know what all went on, you know,
throughout that time.

my financial gain, for real.
There's too many people hurting,
too many people grieving.
Yeah, yeah, I get it.
I get it.
I get it.
Now, for people who don't know,
let's break down how Young Blue got into the industry.
A lot of people heard you the first time
when you wrecked it with Drake.
Yeah.
So how did you get in the industry?
How did you hook up with Bozy and and explain that whole story i
got in the industry like no sense just dropping mixtapes like i was underground for a long time
uh i had this uh investments investments mixtape i was just dropping doing shows like just throughout
the south like you know everybody from the south really start off like in the mississippi
north in the carolinas you feel me they be the first black people at yeah you know what i'm
saying like chilling circuit and um around the time i dropped the volume three i had met boost
he had flew me out to his house and uh i really just took from now for real so he heard one of
your mixtapes it was like yeah this young man let me fly him out. Nah, really, I had hit up his brother.
And I knew Boosie wasn't going to see the DM, so I had hit up his brother.
Smart.
Yeah.
And I just sent him a song, and he was like, man, got me on the phone with Boosie.
So it's basically like his brother put it together, really.
And you signed to Boosie?
Yeah, yeah.
You signed to Boosie.
I didn't know that.
I found that out about a month ago.
Yeah, we do.
We business partners.
We do business together. You gave him some money or something, right? Didn't you give him like a big stack of stuff? Yeah, I gave him some of them. I found that out about a month ago. Yeah, we do. We business partners. We do business together.
You gave him some money or something, right?
Then you gave him like a big stack.
Yeah, I gave him some money.
I gave him plenty.
That's just the first time I did it on camera, though.
Yeah.
Why'd you do that?
Like, I mean, I mean, just out of appreciation, but.
Really, because that was the first time I had gave him that much at one time.
So, I don't know.
I just.
Because he already eating off you anyway.
He already eating off you anyway.
Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
Now, you've been doing music for a while since you were young.
So what were you doing financially?
Like to keep yourself afloat until things really popped off?
Uh,
man,
to be honest,
bro,
like a lot of people don't know,
but I really been rich since like 2016.
Like,
you know what I'm saying?
Cause I just been doing shows so long.
Like I've been popping on the underground scene for so long that,
you know what I'm saying? I've been, been so long. I've been popping on the underground scene for so long that I've been had money. That's why I'm
kind of way ahead.
I don't even remember.
What was I?
What do you call rich when you say rich?
I already had made a million dollars off shows in 2017.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm so glad you said shows though
because most artists be like, I've been had money. I've been rich i was a big time such and such doing you know like knock it
off but you built your own house early on and you know most most artists and rappers you don't see
that you know they go the jewelry route the car out the private jet route and they say i don't
know i went through that stage i feel like everybody going you gonna once you blow up everything you saw when you was coming
up you're gonna try to go get that just because it's like i ain't never had this i always wanted
this i'm gonna go you're gonna go through that little stage where it's just like yeah i'm finna
go get all this stuff that i always wish i had you know what i'm saying but if you smart once you
once you do it you know i'm saying you'll know when to stop some people don't know when to stop
they're just gonna keep doing it keep doing keep doing it and then you know i'm saying
you gotta have investments too yeah you opened a restaurant also right and so you did that like a
couple years ago yep and then i had opened it for like three months and then covid hit and just
messed it up for real and it ain't really i really just did it to have some in my city because
it ain't really a lot of profit and it to have something in my city because it ain't really
a lot of profit in it.
It's like probably like
less than 10% profit in it.
And it's like,
it'd be stealing, man.
It'd be,
it's a lot of stuff.
You so right.
When you open a restaurant,
you really got to keep
your eyes on everything
and you have to have
an amazing manager
because it is too easy
for people to steal
at a restaurant.
So is it back open?
Nuh-uh.
I had like hired like
all my family, all my friends, but it? No, I had like hard like all my family. I'm a friend
You know, I tried to you know, I said I had did the look PPP thing and
Put everybody to work. Man, a month later, I was like,
I should have kept that.
Did you pay back your PPP loan,
or you didn't have to?
You got to use it for your employees.
If you use it for his employees,
he ain't got to pay back.
Be quiet.
Yeah, come on.
I don't want to see that mugshot, Blue.
Like, damn.
Blue got to buy it.
I ain't paying back yet,
but I ain't have to, though.
It was like, you ain't have to.
If it went to your business,
it went to your employees.
Yeah, yeah.
So mine actually went to my employees.
I really played it.
It was your mother's best friend, though,
who you named the restaurant after.
So explain that relationship.
I'm real close with my friend's mom.
Ever since we was real living, I used to get put out the house,
being bad in the streets and stuff.
I used to go to their house.
They used to welcome me with open arms so they just like they mom just like my my people
like we just all like family so you know she always used to cook she used to feed us when we
were hungry like you know what i'm saying so i just felt like he was on the right mind like my
mama don't cook you know she don't really cook like that so uh it was just why would she put
you at the house what were you doing i was just like when i was like young i was just. Why would she put you at the house? What were you doing? I was just like, when I was like young, I was just like bad.
You know what I'm saying?
Just bad.
Just in the streets, real, real bad.

to the Bible
bro like
you know what I'm saying?
If you do, you tell about eight, nine.
I feel like it's human instinct, man instinct to just be.

Man, throw him a butt.
Throw him a butt now.
See, the reason, like, you know, when we talked about it on there,
they were like, they agreed.
And I was like, I don't get it.
Because I come from the mixtape game where rappers took somebody's song or R&B singers took somebody's song, and that's what they did.
And it was on a mixtape.
But you was mad about it.
Why was you mad about it at the time?
I just felt like I had saw him a couple times before that,
and he never said nothing to me.
So I felt like, in my head, I felt like he didn't even know me.
So when I heard the song, I'm like, hey, you just saw him.
At least you could have been like, you know what I'm saying,
I'm in with the song.
I took it as disrespect, you know what I'm saying?
It wasn't that he remixed the song or that it was better than,
you know what I'm saying?
But you just felt like he didn't even say what's up to you.
You wanted credit.
That's all.
That's all.
Yeah, yeah.
I just wanted.
How did y'all squash it?
We were talking crazy to each other through text.
We was in Miami.
He was like, man.
I was like, man, pull up.
You know what I'm saying?
Pull up.

Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Let's talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Saweetie.
This conversation came from Saweetie. She posted a video of her eating spaghetti and putting ranch dressing, a lot of ranch dressing on her spaghetti.
Ranch with spaghetti sauce tastes very good, but you just need to have a ranch like her boyfriend said.
Okay.
She put way too much ranch dressing on that spaghetti directly.
I've never put it on directly.
I'll have a little side salad, have ranch dressing on the side salad.
As I'm eating, I'm mixing the spaghetti up with the salad at the same time,
and it does taste good.
Sounds crazy.
But she just put way too much on there.
Now, behind the scenes, I don't know if you do this too, Yee.
They talk about they take French fries and get a Frosty from Wendy's.
Nope.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You just don't get any French fries.
You get the fries from Wendy's, and you get the milkshake, the thick ass, what's it called?
What's it called?
The Frosty.
That's what I said.
And you dip the fries in the Frosty.
Oh, my God.
That sounds disgusting.
The salt and the sugar.
Yeah, that sounds really nasty to me.
That sounds nasty.
I haven't done it in years, but when I was a kid, it was hot.
So I can't imagine dipping them in something cold.
Look, my grandma, God bless her dead, my grandma used to love to go to Wendy's. She used to like Wendy's hot fries.
And I don't even know how I even started
doing that, but I'm telling you, you dip
them fries into that frosty.
Oh my God. I don't even like cold ketchup
on my fries. My ketchup gotta be
room temperature. And I'm from
South Carolina, so I like ketchup on my grits.
You ever did that?
Yuck.
I'm gonna tell you one thing i was really into for a
minute i was making these sandwiches every morning well not every morning but every day it was a um
spicy mustard cheddar cheese and green apple sandwiches that sounds disgusting
i can't believe y'all don't put ketchup on your grits you ain't never put ketchup on your grits
nope wow i'm not a ketchup lover like that. Hello, who's this? Good morning.
It's Apple from Columbus, Ohio.
How are you?
Good morning, Apple.
Apples are popular this morning.
So what's some weird thing you do with your food?
First of all, I'm half Italian.
And hot sauce, cheese, and ranch belongs once again.
Period.
There's no questions asked about that.
How much ranch, though?
Sweetie put a little too much on there.
No, that's how I'm going to eat it.
That's exactly how she did it, but I add cheese and hot sauce.
Wow.
Okay.
The only other thing that I do would be on salmon patties, I put ketchup and syrup.
On salmon, you put ketchup and syrup?
Ketchup, definitely, though.
On salmon patties, fried salmon patties, I put ketchup and syrup.
No, never syrup.
I've definitely done ketchup on the salmon patties, not sir.
That's both sounds disgusting.
No, you're missing life.
Try it.
I was right.
You couldn't say no until you tried.
Try it.
You're right.
And then say I don't like it.
Hey, I'm going to tell you something, too.
You take them salmon patties with some grits and put that ketchup on there?
Lord have mercy.
All right.
With grits?
All right.
I'm going to try it.
Thank you, mama.
Got my goddamn mouth watering.
Hello, who's this?
This is Raheem.
What's for him, sir?
What's up, bro?
We're talking about some weirdo stuff you do with your food.
Oh, man, I eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with strawberry jelly, boil an egg,
cut the egg up, boil an egg up, put it on the sandwich, B.
So you're eating a peanut butter, jelly, and egg sandwich?
Yeah, boiled egg sandwich.
Got to be boiled egg.
Cut it up.
Cut it up.
Boiled egg, okay.
I'm not gonna lie, that might sound, for some reason, I feel like that would taste good
scrambled.
No, it don't.
I don't like boiled eggs.
I don't know about boiled butter.
Oh, no, it doesn't.
You ever see people put eggs on top of a burger?
You ain't got time.
Yeah, sometimes it might be better with scrambled.
I never thought about that.
Yeah, them eggs.
And listen, by the way, egg sandwiches be hitting, but you got the toasted bread.
Toasted bread with some scrambled eggs? Lightly.
Lightly. Some people don't like to put the right
part on it, but I want the whole thing on there
pulled. Yeah, yeah. I'm with you.
I'm with you. All right. Thank you, brother.
I know my cousin used to eat ketchup sandwiches.
Like, he liked ketchup and bread.
Like, that was his thing.
I hope your cousin got out of poverty, man.
I pray for him. That's what cousin got out of poverty, man.
Nothing to do with poverty.
That's what he liked.
Hello.
Sandwich and ketchup.
Hello, what's up, bro?
How are you?
Good morning.
Hey, how y'all doing?
This is KJ, dad.
Hey, Charlemagne, my man.
Hey, this is Payyaint.
Payyaint?
Man, hey.
Hey, Evie, don't be mad, man. You my guy, man.
But I just wanted to say spaghetti and ranch. Me and Charlemagne be on the same page every time, man. That's cultural, man. That is good't be mad, man. You my guy, man. But I just wanted to say spaghetti and ranch,
me and Charlotte may be on the same page every time, man.
That's cultural, man.
That is good.
It is, man.
You and Evie, they say some things that don't be cultural.
Do y'all eat anything that's like, right, right?
I eat chitlins, and I grew up down south.
No.
I do not eat chitlins.
My mother used to cook it on New Year's Eve and stink the house up.
No.
And I hated chitlins. No mother used to cook it over New Year's Eve and stake the house up. And I hated chitlins.
No way.
But the ranch ain't bad.
I don't know.
I don't know how you black folks don't eat ranch.
Well, Envy don't even like spaghetti and you don't like ranch.
Listen, the only time I've ever tried any other dressing is when I'm on diet
and they got that balsamic vinaigrette on the diet.
Yes, I like that balsamic vinaigrette.
But I don't do it.
I like ranch.
No spaghetti, Amy.
No lasagna, no nothing.
Nothing with red sauce.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't know how you go to the black household
and did not eat spaghetti.
Spaghetti was the go-to meal that your mama would make
when she didn't feel like cooking.
We ain't forgetting at least white food.
He just doesn't like the red sauce.
I don't like the red sauce.
So, I mean, for me, it was Kraft, macaroni, and cheese.
So you don't like the sauce.
You just don't.
My mom made that fast.
When you talk about a quick meal, my mom made that, and then we had lunch meat.
That was the quick meal.
Not like spaghetti.
So just to clarify, Envy, you do eat spaghetti.
You just don't eat the red sauce.
Yeah, I don't like the red sauce.
So we're Alfredo sauce.
Envy not wrong, though, because you in good shape, though, Envy.
But I know a lot of people don't eat the red sauce because it give them heartburn, too.
I ain't got nothing to heartburn. I just don't like red sauce.
It's worth the heartburn.
Let me share my combination real quick.
Grapes, ham, and cheese.
Grapes, ham, and cheese.
That ain't bad, because that's like when you go to them white people's places,
they have that on a plate.
First of all, ham is disgusting.
Ham is good.
Ham is good.
It's the other white meat, right?
That's ham.
The other white meat.
Or is that turkey?
I don't know.
Hey, you are what you eat.
Thank you, man.
It's always good talking to y'all, man.
I appreciate y'all, man.
Love, King.
Appreciate you.
Okay, Ham.
All right, what's the moral of the story?
Man, the moral of the story is just be happy you eat.
Right?
Okay?
Everybody just be happy you eat.
Because if you can put together all these weird combinations, you're doing okay in life.
And I just want to put this out there.
Entenmann's.
Y'all don't make Danish ring anymore?
Oh, you know what I used to do?
I can't find Danish ring.
When I used to be high all the time, really wild.
And when I was young, I would go to the Scotchman and I would get a honey bun.
And I'd take like a Snickers and put it on top of the honey bun and then put it in the microwave for like 30 seconds.
And then eat it like a hot dog.
Oh, my God.
That was so good.
That's why you ain't got no hair.
That probably, whatever that contraption you put together took all your hair away, bro.
For all of y'all out there that ain't afraid of a little sugar
and you try it.
Get a honey bun, put a Snickers on it,
warm it up for like 30 seconds and eat it like a hot dog
when you high and watch what happens.
You turn fat automatically. All right, we got more coming up next with a breakfast club the breakfast club

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

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest joining us right now.
Yes, Jason Wilson.
He's the founder and CEO of Union.
Okay, Jason has over 14 years of experience, you know, training and developing young black men.
You've probably seen his videos on Instagram where he teaches, you know, young black men how to deal with their trauma through martial arts.
He's got two great books out, Cry Like a Man and Battle Cry.
You've probably heard him on the Joe Rogan podcast.
You've seen him on CNN, Dr. Oz.
He spoke at my Mental Wealth Expo this past Sunday,
and now he's on The Breakfast Club.
Mr. Jason Wilson, good morning, brother.
Good morning, my brother.
How are you?
All is well, man.
I love New York.
Love walking early in the morning here,
and especially late at night,
give me time to really reflect
and release things that I need to let go of.
Well, you wrote a couple of books,
Cry Like a Man and now Battle Cry.
Why is crying such a theme? It was imperative for me that I need to let go of. Well, you wrote a couple of books, Cry Like a Man and now Battle Cry. Why is crying such a theme? It was imperative for me that I learned how because my life,
well, I was self-destructive pretty much about to lose my marriage and my family.
And I didn't know how to not only express them, but to even process what I was feeling. So I was only taught to express it through either fighting or really suppressing it.
And as a result, man, I lost it one day, man.
And demonstrably yelled at my wife in the kitchen, hit a hole in my refrigerator. And I just I had to make a change.
And when I saw my wife, I saw her go from trusting me and loving me to her whole spirit was torn down in front of me.
And at that very moment, I realized I had a problem.
And that problem was I wasn't a comprehensive man.
I was just a masculine male.
And I needed to learn how to express the gamut of emotions that God has given me,
you know, more so than just being strong, a protector and provider.
I needed to express being a nurturer, express being compassionate, loving, long
suffering.
You know, when Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter accident with Gianna and nine others, we didn't
see a lot of pictures of him playing basketball.
We saw him operating as a nurturer.
And then a hashtag girl dad went viral through what over a million, 1.2 million men posted
pictures of themselves loving their daughters.
And so we've always been nurturers, but we've allowed society to define us as men just by one adjective, which is masculinity.
But we're more than masculine.
Can we talk about your background a little?
Because this is our first time meeting.
So I know that you have this youth organization in Detroit Union.
But I want to talk about you and how you started doing
this work yes well I started actually was a popular DJ in Detroit and actually did a few
concerts with Public Enemy I was in a rap group called Chaos and Maestro so the union non-profit
started as a record label and so we would use as a Christian I would use the music to counter
what at the current time what we would call like gangster hip-hop and I saw
the negative impact it was having on youth and so we created music to counter it but we realized
quickly that once the music stopped they still had to deal with the trauma and so we're like
we need to stay in their lives we need to get in the schools more so we went after our non-profit
status and in 2007 we received our first grant for mentoring through
the government. And we haven't looked back since. And currently we've reached over 15,000 youth and
young adults in Detroit. And we just purchased a 15,000 square foot building due to the demand
of the Cave of Adullam, which is the transformational training academy where I use
martial arts to help young boys navigate through their emotions
instead of succumbing to them. When did you get into martial arts? Was that a way of channeling
like anger? Yeah, so it was interesting when my good friend, she was shot and killed when I was
in the eighth grade. And we didn't have grief counselors or anyone come to our school. And I
didn't know how to process what I was feeling. So I gravitated
toward ninjutsu at the time I was 12 years old. But then I quickly realized if I only process my
anger by hitting things, whenever that anger arise, I start hitting things and hitting people.
And so from that day on, because I didn't have my father around, he was in the same city,
but wasn't in my life. I saw the sensei as a father figure,
and I longed to have that affirmation
and teach me how to be a man.
And it helped me with some processing,
some of the training, combat communication,
which I talk about in Battle Cry,
and fighting if we're getting ready to fight.
I'm downloading all of your moves, your angle.
If you move on my jab or my kick,
I'm seeing how your defense is.
I use that in communication with my wife. I try to read the room. How is she feeling today?
Is this a good time for me to share with her how all of my emotions, would it overload her?
And so instead of sometimes when you become emotionally free, when you break free from
emotional incarceration, we can come home and unload too much on someone who already had a heavy day. And so I've learned to use combat communication to read, excuse me, read my wife,
read my son. You know, he's quiet today. What's going on with you? Instead of yelling at him.
Now, I want to ask you about for women who are dealing with a man who may be experiencing trauma
or doesn't identify ways that he can improve his own communication. What advice do you have for women that have to deal with that?
My wife, a lot of people ask her that because it was all new for us, you know.
And so the first thing I would say is that we as men, we not only have to unlearn what
we've been conditioned to believe a man is, but also our women.
And we have to give our wives and our women the grace and the space needed to do so because
you've been also programmed to see a man a certain way my wife had never seen a man cry until me you know
and so that's number one is to unlearn what you've been taught to believe number two never impassively
dismiss your husband or your significant other's emotion when he come to you he's trying to open
up he's trying to become comprehensive and whole the worst thing a woman could do is shut them down or I'm busy. Can I come back to that? When you see that door
opening, like, okay, cool. He's, he's allowing me access to that heart. And then lastly is to
listen without expectation. That's what she would say. She says, listen to your husband's or your
significant other's heart. Like it's your girlfriend. Be slow to speak, quick to listen.
But I said you also need to know how to allow your wife to help you through that process.
Can you break down what is emotional incarceration?
It is a self-imposed imprisonment, a mental prison,
that a man confines his non-masculine emotions and his true heart from the world
to keep him from hurting others and even himself and what's interesting about emotional
incarceration and we all as men we can admit this there is no door keeping us
locked in we choose to stay in there and because we have to face or acknowledge
feelings or traumas or emotional pain that we don't feel comfortable with we
choose to stay in there.
And a lot of good men are tired of being bad guys.
Even myself, man, I would suppress all of my emotions, you know,
and because that's what I was taught.
And because of that, I didn't even,
they not only know how to love my wife and my children, bro,
I didn't know how to love myself.
And that self-hate caused me not to really be available for my wife.
And as I shared at the Mental Wealth Expo, she had five miscarriages,
and I was checked out.
I didn't know how to express the hurt or anything.
To this day, it bothers me.
We should say we had five miscarriages.
No, I say she had.
And I should have been there, but I was emotionally checked out.
But now it's truly a blessing to be able to
drop my guard with the woman who really holds my heart with care all right we got more with
jason wilson when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody
it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we're still talking with
jason wilson charlamagne the things you say in regards to your wife was so relatable and it's the same reason i got my myself together too because
you know i didn't want to be like my pops and you know i saw the pain my pops caused my mom
you know i mean and i saw how you know them getting divorced affected the family so why are
so many men just comfortable with saying you know what yeah i'm married but i'm still cheat i'm
gonna still have a whole other family out here, another girl.
Like, why is that okay, you think, to something?
It's a feckless attempt for affirmation.
And so, you know, again, we taught, you know, masculinity as well.
Being a man is having multiple women.
My father told me, I was going to him prior, I was saying,
hey, Dad, I'm about to engage to Nicole.
He said, why in the hell do you want to do that? When I confronted my dad I'm about to engage to Nicole he said why in the
hell you want to do that when I confronted my dad about cheating on my mom my dad said oh you only
got one girlfriend he said one day you're going to understand hey and I I told my dad I told him
I said I don't want to end up like you you're broke you're still having to cut hair dad in
your 60s because you've had three marriages that failed because you didn't have any sexual
self-control. But when we, when I allowed my father to develop Parkinson's, I finally was
able to get a relationship with him because he couldn't go anywhere. So when we finally sat and
talked, he shared with me the pain of growing up and feeling lacking in so many areas. He was called
to preach. He told guys, no way on earth I'm going to do that because he came up in the 60s when the cops cracked down on the pimps in Detroit many of them became pastors
so he said the last thing I'm gonna do is be one of these guys but because of
that he never really knew how to express what he was going through and what he
felt and that's why Sharon battle cry to as where we are now as men we got to go
back and reach and help our fathers learn how to process what they're
dealing with so you gotta think my grandfather, not my great grandfather, great, great grandfather.
My grandfather was lynched, beaten and lynched. And then after his lynching, my mother's family
was terrorized by the police to ensure that none of them will ever feel like they're equal to white
people in Fort Pierce, Florida. I saw that trauma transfer throughout generation throughout generation. And until I allow my dad that freedom to be human, I didn't hear him say
he loved me until 37 years of age. I told my dad and it didn't make sense to me at the time.
He's laying in his bed and the Holy Spirit told me, he says, tell your father, thank him for being a great dad.
Like that doesn't make sense to me. But what my father needed was affirmation.
So I linked over to him while he was laying in his bed. And I said, uh, I said, dad, I said,
thank you for being a great dad. So I was walking out and I heard him like getting heavy in his
breath. And I turned around and I saw the strongest man in my life crying.
He finally had a release.
And this is a tough one.
So I went back over to him.
I held his hand and I kissed him on his forehead.
And he wouldn't let me go.
And he says, son, he says, I love you.
And that there, it removed so many shackles off of me.
And it freed me to really live from my heart instead of my fears,
instead of trying to live up to this limited definition of what a man is.
Now I can be a comprehensive man, which is a man who is courageous but also compassionate,
strong but sensitive, a man who can boldly but freely live from his heart instead of his fears.
How important is it for men to give
other men positive affirmations because you know i thought about this after the mental wealth expo
because a lot of stuff came up for me when we was on the panel having a conversation that's why
that's why the tears came because it's like just listening to you tell me oh i'm proud of you yada
yada i'm like damn yo i i didn't i didn't get that the way i wanted to growing up from my father.
So even just hearing it from another black man that you respect is like, whoa, it gets you emotional.
And whether we realize it or not, we do that all the time.
That's why we go get the cars, sleep with a bunch of different women, want to wear a flag because we want other men to give us affirmation.
Like I said, it's a feckless attempt for affirmation, even with women.
You know, it's like we call you trophy wives and all this other foolishness.
You were created. You're not meant to be objects.
You know what I'm saying? But it's when we objectify women that that a lot when I saw that evil, that's what allowed me to break free from pornography.
Because, again, to have this right in front of you where you feel you can have control over the most beautiful woman in the world.
I didn't know how to really give a woman my heart.
But when I allowed myself to be free, I started cherishing women for who they are,
even their superior qualities, not their equal qualities,
because my wife runs our nonprofit.
If it wasn't for her, I look at the stuff we do now.
That's because I allowed my wife to operate in the fullness of who she is.
That's right.
I don't need you to be just at home with my children.
God has created you to lead this,
this organization,
this ministry.
And then eventually I hope she gets her own health center.
The goal for us to even be healed brother.
And I was sharing this at the expo for us to heal as black men.
I want us to heal so we can finally decrease what's going on inside of us so that our sisters can finally unload the weight and emotional pain that they've been enduring for decades.
Now, as far as affirmation, it's so important, especially with our boys. You know, I remember
I had one kid when I piloted the Cave of Adullam, the principal introduced me to this young man by all negative
descriptions. I took that young man and for 24 weeks affirmed him, poured into him, taught him
how to meditate, release the anger, the frustration, and actually the hurt of not having a father there.
He smoked about two blunts a week. This was an eighth grader. His grade point average was 0.8. Within 24 weeks, his whole life
changed and he graduated because I affirmed him and who he was, even the young man he didn't see.
They saw the prankster. I saw someone who could negotiate, who's wise, who's clever.
They saw someone anger. I saw a young man who would fight against injustice,
who would defend kids who were bullied.
That's what affirmation does.
I thank you for who you are.
And I meant everything that I said, man.
I'm proud of you.
And that's why I affirmed you.
And we need to affirm each other that way.
And then more so, as I told our brother Van Lathan,
when I was on his podcast,
we're so quick to just deflect it or just hear,
you the man too. I love what you're
doing. Like, no, I want you to hold that brother because you're doing some great things and I want
you to really embrace who you are as a man. And that's all I ever wanted, man. And that's why I'm
thankful I finally allowed my wife access to here because what causes men to really drift away,
you want to feel important. You want to feel loved.
But if you don't work as hard as you do in the community,
in your home,
how do you expect those in your home
to give you the accolades that you desire
when you're working twice as hard
for those who don't even live with you?
That's right.
You said something so powerful yesterday
at the Mental Wealth Expo
when Maxwell asked you,
what's the definition of a man?
How do you define a man? Yeah. I said, no, you can't define him. Once you allow yourself to be
defined, you can't be anything and everything you have to be at any given moment. That's the goal
of a man. That's comprehensive manhood. I want to be able to morph between transforming to everything
that I need to be for to accomplish my mission here on earth, for my family, for you, for my sister, for my brother, my brother. And that's the goal. Once
you allow yourself to be defined, you've just cut off your potential. And so I tell people to live,
I was telling the man, live from what we long for instead of what we lack. We tend to blame
our fathers for not being there, what we didn't have. And now we bring that stuff to the present.
We allow our trauma to time travel.
Live in the present so you can fully be there.
And that's the key, man.
If you only feel as a man
that you're only a protector and provider,
are you going to be there for your family?
How can you have a relationship with your wife?
And you can only manifest two attributes.
You're extremely limited. A friend of mine compared it to that crayon boxes the ones of eight and the ones of 64 as men we take out three crayons after one at eight and we said we're gonna stay in that
that area because it feels comfortable it's safe but the most high created us to exude all 64 and
even more now don't move we We got more with Jason Wilson.
When we come back, it's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
I'm sitting here looking at Keisha like, do you love me?
Do you love me not?
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still talking with Jason Wilson.
Yee.
You also have a documentary that you've been working on, right?
Yeah.
Can you tell us something about that?
Yeah, that's really exciting.
I signed with Lawrence Fishburne's film company, Cinema Gypsy,
to do a documentary film on my work with boys in the Cave of Adullam.
We submitted it to Sundance, and so we're waiting to hear back from them,
but it's supposed to release next year, and we're really excited.
You get to see them follow four of my boys,
and you see the effects of intergenerational trauma,
but then you see it broken.
And it's so powerful. It's beautiful.
How do black and brown people learn to stop wearing trauma
as if it's a badge of honor?
Acknowledge that there's nothing good about it.
There's nothing honorable about getting shot.
There's nothing honorable about it. There's nothing honorable about getting shot. There's nothing honorable about hating each other,
mean mugging, not being able to say,
how you doing, my brother?
How you doing, my sister?
There's nothing honorable about, I guess,
just the pain that we've been through.
I mean, we look at it as like, you know,
especially I love hip hop.
I came up in the culture.
We brag about getting shot. We don't brag about living in a good neighborhood. We i came up in the culture we brag about getting shot we don't
brag about living in a good neighborhood we brag about being in the roughest neighborhood
and so until we recognize that this isn't how it's supposed to be yes trauma will happen to all of us
but it's not the black experience as we always say you know uh just as trauma can be passed down
through our generation so so can healing.
But we first have to renew our minds.
We have to allow for me.
It took for me to ask the most how to break me, break away my stubborn will, the evil in my heart.
I didn't want to be his light to the world to help those who are in darkness see.
And so until I allowed him to break me, I wasn't able to see that all that I've been through
the stuff that even for my benefit today wasn't meant for me to stay there so when traumatizing
things happen we have to let go and keep moving forward but a lot of us we stay there because we
fear moving forward because of something else traumatizing may happen and so as a black people
we got to start living from what we desire in here the goodness in here we love each other man
we we do we just have to learn how to express it and there's nothing weak or docile about telling
you i love you telling you i love you and who you are i'm proud of you i need help i'm hurting just
because something
is wrong with me doesn't mean something is wrong. So when we get to that place where we understand,
okay, we can break through what we've been through. That's when you'll see us rise together.
My final question, you know, as your profile raises, how does your wife feel about all these
women calling you zaddy? I didn't know calling you zaddy i didn't know they called
me i didn't know they called me that you've been seeing them on instagram oh man i um um my wife
and i have a very like transparent relationship if she feels something isn't right she'll say it
you know but this is a funny story uh one day I met Halle Berry. All right.
And I took a video for my daughter because my daughter, you know, was into modeling at the time.
And so I called Nicole.
I say, I met Halle Berry.
She's like, really?
Where was she at?
And I told her at this conference.
So we get off the phone and her friend was like, oh, so your husband is with Halle Berry.
And she was like, yeah.
And she kept looking at my wife so
my wife called back and she says are you okay because you know holly berry is was like attractive
like she was our generation's lena horn yeah but my wife was like are you okay because i know she's
beautiful and i know you know, you together, you good?
I'm like, yeah, I'm good.
And we both laughed about it.
But the beautiful thing, when I got home and I looked at my wife, I said, dang, you look better than her.
You see what I'm saying, Mr. Wilson?
And so when she knows, my wife, she affirms me, man.
And I fight it.
I'm still growing, bro.
I don't, like, dang, how do you, what you, she would touch my face all gentle.
I'm like, what are you doing inside?
That's why I'm cringing because I'm thinking what my father told me I wasn't nothing.
And to have a woman caress my face and to tell me I'm beautiful and she loves me.
And as a man, you look in your mirror, you see your flaws, you ain't big enough, you ain't buff enough, you ain't smart enough. What can any of these women give me, man? What's a night of sex?
I'm going to give away everything that I got just to have a moment with a woman. That's not peace to me. That's chaos. I ain't got time to have three cell phones. I don't have the energy for that.
We chasing a sense of worthiness that we can't get from another woman
like that's that's feeding your ego being with your wife that's feeding your soul yeah it's it's
it's she's a part of me man and so you know yeah they're a flirt you can see them they look at you
but i don't have an available look you know a lot of brothers who struggle with infidelity y'all
look available you look like they can holler at you I consciously make sure I don't
look available I don't you know I practice with my sister you know we
talking about okay so I do this okay I take my ring off but i'm not i'm talking to you but it's
respectfully oh how you doing i shake your hand that's right i'm not doing this how are you doing
you i'm not doing all that i'm like how you doing no i'm present pleasure to meet you i'm proud of
you thank you i'm proud of you too what are you doing later no i'm kidding oh i said i'm calling
my wife i'm telling you right now taking that ring off and then having the conversation does not make you less available.
That's true. But no, but
the look is the spirit. It's the
vibe. Absolutely. That's why I tell my
brothers, one of my friends, Stan, back in the
day, he said, man, these women be on me. I'm trying
to be faithful. I said, you look like you
want them to. And he started
laughing. We was in the gym
and I said, look at you. He was like,
I get it, dog dog you come in here
every day with great sweatpants on okay and so you know and and and that's my my thing i just you
know um i i love our women i do and they need a man who doesn't want to get between their legs
just to talk to them and affirm them that's right To hear from just a man who just wants to affirm you for who you are,
not because you're beautiful, I'm trying to holler at you.
Man, these women was just, you know, that's why I say, man,
when we can get healed, keep doing those expos, man.
I mean, we got to continue to do what we do.
But when we can get healed, we got to sit down and open the space
for our sisters to heal. and that's when you're
going to start seeing transformation when we both can truly find that and get that healing we desire
and our families become whole then our communities to change and then you got the world jason i'm so
extra grateful for like the men in my life who do affirm me and have positive things to say to me
and it's not for any reason other
than they really feel that way. And I don't feel anything crazy from them. I know their families.
I know their wives are significant others and it's completely comfortable. And I'm so appreciative
all the time of people that are like, yo, Angela, you really doing your thing. I'm so proud of you.
I'm gonna come support. Like it means a lot to me. Yes. And that's awesome. And, you know.
Because sometimes people feel like men and women can't have these relationships where
there's nothing going on.
And if you could take a picture with somebody, they go, yeah, he trying to holler.
And you're like, dude, come on.
Just because he's a man doesn't mean that that's what it is.
Just because somebody can affirm you.
But people sometimes are scared to even do that.
Yeah.
But the more men who
who who model it the more men feel comfortable and say okay this is what a man is you know and
and that's what our women need you know even at the union just to affirm and love them i got you
don't worry about that i ain't trying to holler at you they need brothers they need men in their
lives that they feel that they got their back you know and they ain't always wanting something you know and so i uh i went i did a what is it called virtual reality i was at this conference
and they they put put me in a headset where i saw through the eyes of a woman at work and it showed
how many like advances men were making to this woman throughout the day. And from the handshake to just having
conversation, I'm like, damn it, can you just respect me as a woman, affirm me just as a woman
instead of you just trying to get between my legs, you know? And so I'm glad you have men like that.
I try to make myself available for the women in my life the same way, you know? And it's so needed
as men that, again, as long as we're seeking affirmation
in the wrong places,
and that's what I did for the longest,
we'll never truly respect our women
for the queens, the jewels,
the gifts that they truly are.
That's right. To Yi's point,
I mean, that's why I'd be so happy.
You know, I got so many women
that call me their brother or their uncle
because I really wear that as a badge of honor.
Like, you know, I want to be there for them in in that way and I'm glad they see me in that way
yeah they need it and we need women like when my mother when my mom when my
mother passed man I needed a nurturer I needed to allow older women and my wife
access to my heart in that way you know and so and I don't need women sisters
trying to holler at me. I need a sister
sometimes. I have women who pray for me, man. They ain't trying to holler at me. They're praying for
me. And they say, we know what you're doing. We got you. I'm like, I feel invigorated. You know,
I'm ready to go. And my wife doesn't mind it, man. And so, you know, again, it's, it's, we,
our minds need to be renewed so that we can truly live from the good in our hearts.

you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a
lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection,
it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're
going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth,

Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a flamingo.
It's a breakfast club, bitches.
Donkey of the day with Charlamagne Tha God.
I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this.
Well, donkey of the day goes to a 23-year-old Florida woman named Alexis Talley.
Now, what does your Uncle Sharla always say about the great state of Florida?
Say it with me.
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
It is what it is.
Okay, I love Florida.
But one of my favorite things to do when I'm in Florida is turn on the local news.
High levels of entertainment, people.
Okay, I can't believe it's free.
I was in Miami last weekend just watching the local news and laughing and shaking my head very hard to avoid
the crazy that exists in florida you know every day of our lives we wake up and we attempt to
avoid crazy it's hard to avoid crazy in florida it's like a full-time job to avoid crazy in
florida because in florida you don't have to find crazy crazy will find you and that's exactly what
happened in this situation involving the sister, Alexis Talley.
Now, Alexis Talley was arrested for domestic battery after putting hands on her girlfriend.
Now, the other day I told you all on this radio how I had a dream.
No, let me rephrase. I had a nightmare that I was cheating on my wife.
And in the nightmare, I felt the guilt. So I stopped.
And then when I woke up the next morning, my wife said to me that she had a dream that I cheated on
her. And she woke up wanting to F me up. When you got a soul tie with a person, y'all are really
connected, synced up like your smartphone with a Bluetooth. That's me and my wife. Well, my wife
said she felt like she wanted to F me up because of her dream. Alexis Talley actually F'd her girlfriend up because of the dream.
Okay?
Because of the dream her girlfriend was having.
Oh, how I wish there was a news report for this one,
but allow me to read you the details off the smoking gun.
Police responded to calls from a neighbor who said they could hear a fight taking place.
When authorities arrived at the scene. The 21 year old victim said she was awoken after Alexis Talley claimed to hear her sleep talking about an ex.
I'm not making this up. OK, if you're thinking what the F, please think what the Florida.
Alexis Talley started beating on her girlfriend in her sleep because she thought she heard her girlfriend
sleep talking about an ex
According to the arrest report Alexis started punching the victim in the face after
Waking her and cops noted that she had visible swelling to the right side of her face now when they say Alexis woke her up
Was it with the punch or before?
Now I'm gonna shoot Alexis a little bail that's slang by the way. I'm not giving her no money towards her bail I'm going to shoot Alexis a little bell. That's slang, by the way.
I'm not giving her no money towards her bell.
I'm just talking about a hypothetical about the situation.
I'm almost positive that if I mentioned another woman that I was involved with while I was in a deep slumber, I, too, would get punched in the face.
What about you, Wendy?
I concur.
Not justifying what Alexis did, just saying that as Florida as this sounds, this might garner the same reaction in any state.
I mean, my wife woke up wanting to F me up because of a dream she had that I was doing something.
Imagine if she would have woke up to me calling out the name of some other woman I dealt with.
My God.
This is why hot grits used to get thrown on brothers in the 60s and 70s.
OK, your granddaddy got a scar right now on his back from from that hot grits because he too was saying somebody else's name in his sleep okay muhammad ali once said if
you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize same rules apply with your
significant other okay just change beating to cheating if you even dream of cheating on your
girl you better wake up and apologize.
Now, Alexis was arrested for domestic battery and has maintained that their argument was only verbal rather than physical.
She told the officers that the mark on her girlfriend's face was from a previous fight.
That's not funny.
That's not funny.
It's not funny, but it's Florida.
It's Florida.
Okay?
She's told the police, not the fight that was reported to the police.
That was last week.
It was from another fight.
Basically, Mr. Officer, that mark on her face wasn't from when I beat her this time.
That was from the last time we fought.
I don't have anything else here.
Okay?
Please give Alexis Talley the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's.
Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey of the day.
Yee-haw.
Yee-haw.
Yee, how would you react if you heard your man
saying the name of an ex in his sleep?
Um, I don't know.
That's a tough one. I don't know what I would do.
We'd have a conversation. It might not go well.
We might not talk for a couple weeks.
You don't think it would resort to violence, though?
You're not a violent person.
No.
I don't believe in putting my hands on people.
Okay.
I think we should play a game. You think we should play a game? I'm not a violent person. Yeah, yeah. No. I don't believe in putting my hands on people. Okay. I think we should play a game.
You think we should play a game?
I'm curious.
Really?
To know what race this is.
Really?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
What was the name of the ex?
I need to know that.
They didn't say the name of the ex.
They didn't say the name of the ex.
All right.
Well, okay.
Since anybody wants to play, I guess it's time for a game of Guess What Race It Is.
All right, what's the clues?
Now, Alexis Talley.
Alexis.
From Florida.
Florida.
She was asleep.
They both were asleep with her girlfriend, and her girlfriend was sleep talking and said
the name of her ex, so Alexis swung on her.
Guess what race she is.
Where you gonna start?
Yee. Go. Lat start? Yee, go.
Latina.
Damn it, man.
Okay, okay.
Angelique said Latina.
Why you say Latina, Angelique?
I don't know.
I just felt like it.
Okay, okay.
DJ Envy, Alexis Talley from Florida.
Okay, she was with her girlfriend.
Her girlfriend was talking in her sleep and her
girlfriend said her ex's name allegedly
so Alexis got up and swung on her.
Guess what race
she is!
Alright, the name Alexis
makes me feel
black, but
I'm going Puerto Rican.
How dare you?
I'm gonna be
honest with you. I don't know what Alexis Talley is. How dare you? I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't know what Alexis Talley is.
Why would you play this game?
How do we play the game?
You don't know what she look like.
NB has to play.
I don't know.
Let me see.
Let me see that picture.
I'm just always down for the game.
It's just a good guessing game.
She might be Puerto Rican.
She might be.
But then she might be black.
She might be.
She might be half and half.
What does she look like to you, Daniel?
What is Alexis Talley? She look black to me. No, she look Puerto Rican. What does she look like to you, Daniel? What is Alexis Talley?
She looks black to me.
No, she looks Puerto Rican.
What does she look like to you?
Yeah, she does.
Definitely Puerto Rican.
Sometimes you can't look at a person and tell.
You're right.
You can't look at a person and tell.
You definitely can't.
All right.
This is a pointless game.
They're pointless game.
Yeah, it made no sense.
It's been anticlimactic, guys.
And we wanted to play.
I thought you knew the answer.
Well, we'll find out on social media later, I'm sure.
I'm sure somebody will let us know.
All right.
Keep it locked.
We have more coming up next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club.
Need relationship advice?
Need personal advice?
Just need real advice.
Call up now for Ask Ye.
Eat the bread. Morning, everybody. It. Call up now for Ask Ye.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Ye. Hello, who's this?
I'm saying Anonymous.
All right. What's your question for Ye, Anonymous? Yes, we can. All right. So I have a dilemma. When my boyfriend and I first started dating, we were going to, you know, do it in the car,
and he pulled his pants down.
There was a foul order.
He didn't fart.
He just, like, took a dump and, like, didn't wipe his butt.
Hey.
Now we, like, live together, and whenever we're going to do it,
I always, you know, I'm hesitant because he doesn't wipe his butt,
so he always has a foul, I always, you know, I'm hesitant because he doesn't wipe his butt.
So he always has to bow older
and, you know,
he always has
dookie face
on his boxers.
Ah, those skid marks.
That's what they call them.
Yes, skid marks.
So how do you
tell your man,
like, babe,
can you please wipe that?
Is he a grown man
or a baby
wearing a diaper?
That is disgusting.
First of all,
Don't judge that man.
I'm going to tell you.
Oh, is this Envy we're talking about here? You mean is this Gia? Don't judge that man. I'm going to tell you. Oh, is this envy
we're talking about here?
You mean is this gear?
Don't judge that man.
No, no, no.
All right, so first of all,
do y'all have wet wipes
in the bathrooms in the house?
I think I need to keep them there,
but that doesn't help you some.
You got to help him out, man,
because first of all,
there's no way he don't smell
the doo-doo coming out his butt
when he pulls his pants down,
number one.
Number two,
you might have to tell him
you gotta get up in there when you wipe yourself
and wipe yourself good. And you might have to
buy him some wet wipes to carry with him when he
goes places and tell him to use those
when he uses the bathroom because this is not something that you
can dance around. You have to be
direct about this hygiene.
She's right. But I'm not his mama though.
Embarrassed at one time.
You have to tell him.
Because you know what?
If you don't say something, you're going to just end up having to smell doo-doo every time you have sex.
Yeah, I can't do that.
So just tell him, be like, babe, look at your underwear.
Do you see this?
You're not wiping yourself well.
Are you getting up in the hole?
So you have doo-doo stains on your sheets, too, huh?
No, no, I would never.
You have to.
If it's in his underwear, it's in the sheets.
But you got to point it out because if you don't say anything,
then are you just having sex and enduring the smell?
Girl, I don't go down there.
I won't go down on him a lot because of that.
I'm always afraid.
I don't want to get doo-doo in my mouth.
Why is it so hard to tell a man his ass stink?
I don't know, but you could get...
Can't you get E. coli or something?
I mean, if he f***ing asks, I can't wait
until he asks you to eat his ass.
I don't want to... Oh, hell no. I don't want to hurt
his ego. That's it. Well, girl, I don't want
you to get some type of disease either.
Bacteria infection.
But this is for his own
good. First of all, if you're doing laundry
sometimes, you don't want to have to touch
that and clean that, right?
Right.
And this is for his own benefit.
This is to help him out in his life.
You got to show him, look, baby, these are wet wipes.
Now, me and you are having this conversation.
Don't be embarrassed because we could talk about anything.
And trust me, if you're having sex with this man, I'm protected.
You should be able to tell him his ass stinks and he's not wiping himself.
Goodness gracious. If you can do that and you can lay up with him
and do all of that, then you should be able
to communicate with him and tell him, babe, you
need to clean your butt. It's going to be so funny when you
tell him his butt stinks and he was like, man, I was thinking the same
thing about your poom poom.
And guess what she would do?
Wipe her poom poom with a wet wipe.
Who ate crap?
Who ate crap? You're the one eating crap.
Don't you dare say I ate crap.
Thank you, mama.
And just listen.
This is a time when you got to be direct and be like, look, you know, I don't know if you're just not wiping yourself right, but there's these stains in your underwear and sometimes I can smell it.
So I just want to say you got to wipe yourself better.
Here's some wet wipes every time you go to the bathroom.
And you shouldn't even have sex with him until after he showers.
But if he's not cleaning his butt in the shower either and then
getting out. How do you say butt like that?
I don't know what I'm supposed to say on the radio. Just say his butt.
Just cleaning his butt.
I will say I've been with my wife
21 years and I do
remember a time about 14,
15 years ago where
she went down
and she was like, hey man, you need to go
take a shower or something.
And you appreciated it. Yeah a shower or something. Amen.
And you appreciated it.
Yeah, maybe I didn't wipe properly.
I don't know what it was, but she told me.
It hurt my feelings.
I just went and took a shower.
Is this a common issue between men?
I don't understand.
I don't think it was a common issue.
It's happened to me before.
Once or twice, three times, four times, five times.
It happened to me before.
Yeah, but look, so that's why you got to point it out.
One day y'all will laugh about it, and hopefully that day that y'all are laughing, his times, five times. Happened to me before. Yeah. But look, so that's why you got to point it out. One day y'all will laugh about it,
and hopefully that day that y'all are laughing,
his butt will be clean.
Jesus Christ.
You got to embarrass him.
Pick up the underwear and be like,
what's this?
And then let him see the doodoo stains,
and he'll get embarrassed,
and he'll never do it again.
I like that.
You know what I mean?
That's perfect.
And check your sheets,
because I bet you you got doodoo stains on your sheets.
Yeah.
I bet you.
And he knows.
Trust me.
Shut up.
Tap me once or twice.
Put those skin marks in his face. See? You went too far. Thank you, Mama. How do you like it? Thank you. I bet you Ambie knows trust me shut up tapping me once or twice put those skid marks
in his face
see you go too far
thank you mama
how do you like it
thank you
that's actually
that's some young boy stuff though
because you know
that's one of the reasons
after I do a number two
I do go take a shower
except if you're at work
yeah if I'm at work
but then it's not like
I'm going home
and me and my wife
gonna get right to it
I don't wanna go home
smelling like the day
you should never poo
and then have sex right after. Hell no.
If you can take a shower. We don't want your muddy
butt up here either. You better wipe better, bro.

If you need relationship advice, hit ye.
Now it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's ASCII.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
NV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We'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. Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning. Hey, can you take us
on Bluetooth with speaker, please?
Yes, sir. Absolutely. What's your question for you, bro?
Good morning, Breakfast Club. So,
Yee, my question is,
just recently, I'm in a relationship with
this beautiful woman.
She's currently going through a divorce right now, and she was raped by her soon-to-be ex-husband.
So I was very angry.
I tried to get her to go to the cops.
She didn't want to do it.
So I'm trying to figure out what should I do, how should I feel.
Okay, so I understand.
So you said she was raped by her soon-to-be ex-husband.
You want her to go to the police to report this,
and she's not willing to do that right now.
And, you know, that's a difficult decision.
Again, it is her decision, but what you can do is be as supportive as possible.
I think you should encourage her to talk to someone like a therapist
or a sexual assault counselor.
I know they have the National Sexual Assault Hotline.
That number is 800-656-HOPE if she wants to speak to someone.
And that way she can have a record of it because the worst thing you want to do is not be able to bring this up later if she should change her mind.
But I do think speaking to a counselor or a therapist will help her understand that it is in no way her fault because she might be having some feelings.
A lot of times when things happen, you think about
what could I have done differently? Is this my fault? How could this have been prevented? Did I
put myself in a bad situation? Am I going to ruin his life if they have kids together? Women think
about all of those things and a therapist might help her to see things from a different point of
view and understand that it was in no way at all her fault. And another thing you should encourage
her to do is write everything down.
That way she can remember every single detail.
In case there's an instance where she does decide that she wants to go to the police or report this,
she'll have all of that information.
But speaking to a counselor, speaking to a therapist that can help her see things,
who's an expert from a different point of view,
I think would be one of the most helpful things you can do.
Because, again, you want to be there to support and comfort her.
You want her to be able to trust you,
but you don't want to make her feel ashamed or have any type of judgment on whatever her decision is.
Gotcha.
And I tried to suggest some of those things to her,
but I think that the problem arose where she didn't want to be victimized
or be a victim, and it was kind of hard for her to even grasp
the concept of what happened.
And when we had the conversation, it was kind of like she was kind of in denial.
Right.
That's a problem that we were running into.
And she's a survivor.
We like to say survivor.
So not a victim, but she survived this.
And we want her to continue to thrive and to actually deal with whatever she
might be feeling with that. And that might be something that she needs to talk to somebody
about. Again, if right now she's not ready to go to the police, I would encourage her to speak to
someone and even you can call, right? Because then they might be able to give you the tools that you
would need to be able to talk to your girlfriend to better be able to help her because that's a
traumatic experience.
You don't even know how this might affect her later, but you want her to be able to have whatever options available to her in case she needs those.
Okay.
Thank you so much.
I love you guys.
I love you guys.
I love you all every morning, but thank you again so much.
All right.
Thank you.
And we commend you and appreciate you for being such a support to your girlfriend at
a time like this.
Absolutely.
Got to be. Okay. You have a time like this. Absolutely. Got to be.
Okay.
Y'all have a good day.
You too.
Ask Yee.
Ooh, that's tough.
All right, we got more coming up next
with The Breakfast Club.
It's that time again!
Ask Charlamagne and DJ Envy anything.
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for Ask C&E if you need relationship advice
or any type of advice, you can hit us right now.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, it's Kendra.
Hey, Kendra, good morning.
What's your question for C&E?
Hey, it's Kendra.
I actually have a question for you, Envy.
Yes, ma'am.
I'm from North Carolina,
and I'm wanting to get into flipping houses,
but I don't know where to start.
Okay.
Well, first of all, how's your credit?
Is your credit good?
Yeah.
That's the most important thing.
And then now you have to find the property.
There's a couple of websites that I use across the country.
One is auction.com.
Okay.
And the other one is hubzoo.com.
Now, those are two websites I have no affiliation with, so I don't get no pay for it or nothing.
These are just the websites I actually use.
Those are the websites I use to find properties that are usually being auctioned off that you can get at a great price, way under market value.
And that's where you should look first, and you should look at the comps in the area and see what those properties are worth.
When you look at those properties, you should take somebody with you to see how much those properties will cost to fix up.
See what's wrong with the property.
If it needs a new roof, if it needs electric, if it needs plumbing, if it needs flooring, if it needs siding, if it needs whatever it may be.
And then make your analysis from there.
So if that property is $500, it needs $100,000 worth of work.
That's $600,000, but it's worth $800,000.
That's a good flip.
Okay.
Follow your partner on Facebook and Instagram.
And I want to attend one of your seminars.
But I'm working on that.
That's my next goal.
To attend one of your seminars.
That would be a good one because during the seminar, there's so many people there that, like, do finance.
And a lot of times we have the people from those sites actually come.
So auction.com tells you how to navigate through their site to buy
the actual properties. We have hard money lenders. We have financial people there to tell you how you
can get the loans and help you get those loans. So it's a really good seminar. You should definitely
check it out if you have a chance. I appreciate it. Thank you. All right. And just continue to
follow me and Cesar because we're going to do some courses online because we can't make it to
all these cities. We just got so much going on where we can help people online. We just want to see our own people
continue to purchase land and property.
Yeah, I'm trying to build generational wealth.
There you go. Alright, Mama.
Thank you. Hello, who's this?
This is Couture Nail Design.
Hey, Couture Nail Design. I have a question.
I have a question for you, Envy.
Why are you so insecure in your
masculinity that you won't let
ye say a ye mix when you're not there?
Good, great question.
Great question, Queen.
I'm not insecure in my masculinity.
Ye was allowed to do mixes a long time ago, but I believe they said she was trash, so they didn't want her to do it.
That never happened.
You are such a liar.
But that was the problem.
I don't play the music that was out at the time,
not the free program stuff you got going on.
Well, I don't play the music during the show, man.
But if Yeez Mix wasn't trash, they would have invited her to play again.
It's not trash.
It is.
I bump more to the E-Mix than I do to your mix.
Ooh, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Maybe you should start an Instagram page and try.
I don't know, but that's what they told me.
They told me that her mix was trash.
And they said that because the mix was so trash, they didn't want her back.
I'm sorry.
You said you were going to see her on Reddit.
That was you.
That was you.
You were being shady.
I'm not being shady, but you have a good morning, though.
I love you.
Whatever.
Send her healing energy. I'll not being shady, but you have a good morning, though. I love you. Whatever. Send her healing energy.
I'll send you healing energy, mama.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is P.
Oh, boy.
Fake name.
What's your question for C&E?
I just had a question.
How do you deal with, like, trusting someone after, like, them cheating?
You know, you have a baby together.
Oh, that's not on you.
That's on him.
You know what I mean?
The best apology is change behavior.
Like, he has to regain your trust.
You know what I mean?
Like, that's not something you got to force yourself to do.
Yeah, and it takes time.
Don't let him force you to be like, oh, you forgave me, so you got to.
No, no, no.
It takes time.
Whenever you're comfortable, whenever you feel okay, that's when you feel okay. feel okay like charlamagne said it ain't about telling me it's about showing me
and are you open are you open to trusting him again i am definitely open to trust him again
it's just like the fact like feeling like depressed and like feeling betrayed by someone
all good feelings not good feelings but all natural feelings to have. All you got to do is remain open to trusting him,
and he has to regain your trust by changing his behavior,
and that's just going to come over time.
Just like you knew he was cheating,
just like your sixth sense, that woman's sense, intuition knew he was cheating,
you're going to know when he's doing it right.
And that makes sense.
Thank you.
And if you're still uncomfortable every once in a while, do a phone check.
Phone check.
Give me your phone. Thank you, guys. you're still uncomfortable every once in a while, do a phone check. Phone check. Give me your phone.
Thank you, guys.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Nani.
Hey, Nani.
What's your question for C&E?
So I just found out my husband was texting, really like explicit text with a co-worker.
I'm a month pregnant, and I've been going through a lot of like miscarriages
here. So this whole time I'm like, why would you think it's okay for you to be doing these things
when we are going through like some hard at home, like we could lose a baby. And every time I bring
it up to him, he kind of just like, just get over it, you know, let's move on.
I didn't do nothing with his messages,
but, like, you work with this girl,
and I've asked you multiple times to, like, contact her in front of me
and tell her, like, it's over, you know,
like, I don't want to have anything to do with you,
but he won't do it.
Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest with you.
I think it's very disrespectful, the fact that you're pregnant,
and he continues to text this girl. I know it has to be difficult with you. I think it's very disrespectful, the fact that you're pregnant, and
he continues to text this girl. I know it has to be
difficult for you, because every day he goes to work,
you have to think about your
husband seeing this other woman that he's been texting
explicitly. And it's not a matter of
just get over it, it'll go away.
No, it's not that. You put that, you keep that pressure on
that man's neck. The fact that he has been doing
it is very disrespectful. Your husband
is a boy. We've all had our boy opportunities
and our boy aspects of our lives,
but he has to grow up and understand he has
responsibilities. He has a wife at home
that's pregnant, and he should be taking care of home
and making sure that, you know, that life that
you're building, that you're completely stress-free.
Yo, yo, yo, Queen, get up
fired, Queen.
Queen, get up
fired, Queen.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm sure you got a creative mind.
You can make something up and get a little message to the boss.
You know what I'm saying?
Get her fired, Queen. No, but you know, that's her livelihood.
Yes, I have a good job.
Oh, you care about her livelihood?
Does she care about your livelihood?
She ain't thinking about you.
She ain't thinking about your life, your livelihood, the life in your belly.
Nothing.
Get her fired, queen.
All right.
Goodness gracious.
Good luck.
Or let her know.
I'm going to get you fired if you don't leave my man alone.
Yeah, you might have to embarrass her.
You might have to embarrass her.
Straight up.
Maybe an anonymous Facebook post.
I know what's going on at the job.
Y'all better leave my man alone before I start naming names.
Or you could do it right now if you want.
No, don't do it now.
Think about it.
Think about it.
Have a good one.
What kind of advice is that?
Forget about it.
All right, do it now.
Don't do it now.
No, don't do it now.
Think about it.
Pray on it.

It takes absence to value presence.

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