Envy, Yee, and Charlamagne.
Everybody that's anybody comes to the breakfast club.
You know, you give voice to people that would be voiceless.
Right now, your show has the pulse of the culture.
Yeah.
Everyone smells rich.
Successful.

Non-stop entertainment.
The Breakfast Club.
Wake your pork ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
You better have the same energy.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Good morning.
So what I want to get off my chest,
I know DJ Envy, you go through this all the time.
What's that?
I'm half black.
People come up to me, they ask me what my nationality is,
and they assume that I'm Spanish, Puerto Rican, but my
dad's black, my mom's white.
It gets me frustrated sometimes. I want to know what
you do about that. How the hell would we know?
He's talking about me. I don't pay it any mind.
I don't pay it any mind. I mean, I
don't care. I mean, it doesn't bother me.
It's not like something like, oh my God, this grind my
gears. No, I don't care. You don't like when
people say you Dominican?
I'll joke back. I'll say I'm black, but it don't
upset me to the point where I'm going to go in the corner and cry.
What do people ask you? They ask you,
what are you? Bro, make up your mind.
You just said it's not
a problem, but now you're saying you're not Dominican.
He doesn't have to get that mad and that upset.
I'm trying to understand. So people just say, what are you?
Yeah, they ask me what my
nationality is. I'm like,
I tell them to guess, and they usually go,
a Spanish Puerto Rican?
Well, you told them to guess.
You should just say I'm black.
I wish Envy would humor me one day and say, guess what I am.
No.
I understand, though.
He's annoyed that people come up to him that don't even know him
and just say, what's your nationality?
Yeah.
I get it.
It's annoying.
Thank you, brother.
I don't have a problem.
I never really understood why people get mad at that.
There's so many nationalities and so many people.
If you see somebody you want to ask,
why does that bother people? I don't understand.
Well, he's bothered. He's inquisitive.
What are you? Oh, you're this and that? Okay, that's dope.
I mean, they're entitled to be bothered. But if you have something
in your mind, you know what I mean?
In your mind, you know what you are.
I can see why that would be annoying. Because you you would hope everybody else sees it too but what are you
black 100 pure god okay you don't look black to me hello who's this look more on the white side
i'm 97 i'm actually 97 west african i've done my african ancestry hello who's this? Yo, what's going on? It's Phyllis Brown.
Listen, yesterday was too crazy.
Everybody was going stupid over social media, man.
We need to all get off of it.
Social media is just an everlasting chase of approval
of people we don't care about.
That's right.
How did you know everybody was going crazy over it?
Where'd you see that?
On the articles.
Whenever it's on YouTube, Google, anything.
All they talk about is Facebook.
Yeah, it was news. Like, it was on CNN,
MSNBC. I'm like, okay.
So you don't use social media?
Nah, not like that. Because, you know what I'm saying?
You start comparing yourself to people
who just put up the highlights.
It's bad for your mental health.
I literally, I said,
I told Duvall this about a week ago.
I was like, yo, when did social media become like a university of higher learning?
Like, I remember 10 years ago when it was literally just a playground.
It was literally just a place we went to have fun.
We unplugged.
People don't unplug no more.
Nope.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up?
What's up, bro?
Get it off your chest.
I want to send a shout out to this miserable person I met this weekend who worked at the Barclays Center.
If you are a miserable person, do not pass it on to other people.
What happened?
All right.
So I was working a J. Cole concert.
First of all, he's my favorite artist.
I was praying to work this concert.
I worked the concert.
I'm also an artist, so I'm like,
man, I hope I get a chance to shoot
my shot tonight. I'm standing
on the side of the stage, right?
And J. Cole stuck
his leg up on the speaker and it ended up
falling off the stage. I caught
the speaker. We put the speaker back
on. Now, if you would have seen it,
you would have known that whole chain of speakers would have fell off.
So, okay, I just saved that from happening you say this young woman sees me yes she goes yeah you don't belong over here you got
a you got to go I'm like okay now I go to where I'm supposed to be but you know
and you guys have been to a Barclays Center you know where where the cars
come into where Yeah, downstairs.
In the garage, yeah.
And I just waited over there respectfully.
You know, I could have pretended I was a part of the entourage,
snuck back there.
I didn't do anything like that.
I just waited quietly while going back and forth and working.
And this same miserable worker came over.
Where do you belong?
Oh, you don't belong here now.
Reported me and a whole bunch of nonsense.
But you could just tell, man, she was just a miserable person
and she wanted to pass that on to whoever else, you know?
Now you leaving out the part where you was trying to slip J. Cole your mixtape
and you was telling J. Cole you rapped.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I just said that.
It wasn't a mixtape and I don't get down like that.
You just said, shoot your shot.
I didn't want to.
I didn't want to.
That could go any.
That could mean anything.
You said, shoot your shot.
But if she's a manager, was she a manager?
No, she wasn't a manager.
Oh, because she could have got in trouble.
Maybe J. Cole's people would have killed her.
Yeah, yeah, no.
And you know what?
And I respect that.
It was just the way she went about it.
The way she went about it was just nasty.
And, uh, Charlamagne, come on.
I'm about to shoot my shot. What's up with you and these men, man?
You said shoot your shot.
Didn't he say that? You said you wanted to shoot...
I'm an artist before I said that. All you ever do is shoot your shot.
I'm worried about you, bro.
I don't know what kind of picture you wanted to paint.
Okay, I got a question.
Were you not where you were supposed to be, though?
He wasn't where, you know. He was somewhere else.
No, no. I wasn't where I was supposed to be.
I mean...
It's not like I was making a disruption or I went about it.
I work in production, so I try not to invade people's space.
I get it.
Yeah, but she was doing her job.
She was making sure she was security.
But I will say, out of every venue that I've ever been to,
any concert hall or any arena, the Barclays is of every venue that I've ever been to, any concert hall or any arena,
the Barclays is usually the nicest people I've ever been to.
I'm not yet Barclays.
There's a lot of people from Brooklyn that work at the Barclays.
The Barclays is the nicest place.
I was surprised because at the Garden, they're like that.
Yeah, I would say, you know.
I love the Barclays.
I would say the Barclays is better than the Garden to me.
And I'm better than all these arenas.
I get love at the Garden, too, though.
You got to do your job, bro.
That's it.
Do your job.
All right, Joe.
All right, man.
He's like, man, you should be on my side.
585-1051.
Now, we got rumors on the way?
Well, this sounds like true love.
Imagine you have two toilets in store right next to each other.
The Breakfast Club.
I'm darling.
I'm darling. Hey, what you doing, man? I'm darling. I'm dialing. I'm dialing.
Hey, what you doing, man?
I'm dialing.
I'm calling you.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed.
800-585-1051.
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 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 the task.
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
from 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've been with that young lady 10 years, you probably want to.
You know?
He might not want to pay the mother, though.
He might just want to 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.
Yeah, I agree. But he shouldn't have to pay
child support. He shouldn't have to pay child support,
though. Yeah, I shouldn't have to pay child support, though.
Yeah, I shouldn't.
No, 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.
All right, man.
Have a good one, man.
God bless you, brother.
All right.
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? I'm Sean Stone, the God. What'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 of God.
What's up, Angela Yee?
What's up, CJ Envy?
Yes, sir.
Red, you never speak, but what's up?
Red?
Red say I will never 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.
But 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,
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, 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 look 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 head nod.
Head nod.
That's not a wink, bro.
Okay.
You should just be flattered.
Yeah, just be flattered.
He thought he was cute.
All right.
Peace.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building, Wayne Brady.
Yes, sir. Welcome, sir.
Welcome.
It is a pleasure.
In person, I get to see you all face-to-face.
That's right.
Yeah, we spoke to him during the pandemic Zoom.
Yeah.
How was your pandemic?
I mean, we've seen some of it on social media of how you lived it.
For people that don't know, how did you spend your pandemic time?
I spent my pandemic healing.
I didn't realize that I missed my family as much as I did.
I'm basically at heart of my homebody.
I live for my family.
I love my daughter.
She is my universe.
My ex-wife is my best friend, and her boyfriend is one of my best friends.
And I'd been on the road so much and filming and working, which is the blessing,
but I got to spend this uninterrupted time with my daughter and connect with her as a young lady
because during the pandemic, she was like from 16 and a half to just turning 18. So
that was a really formative year and a half of I could be with her, talk to her. She got her first
real boyfriend right as the pandemic begun. So all these issues that happened, thank God I was
present. Yeah, people found it so unusual that you could be best friends with your ex-wife,
can co-parent the way that you are. I see they adopted a child,
and you're also going to be co-parenting with that baby as well.
But how do you get to that space?
I know it wasn't an easy road.
That's the sitcom that I really want to make
because that's the real is you look at it on TikTok,
and I talk about Mandy.
Shout out to Mandy.
My ex-wife is my best friend.
No, she actually gets mad when I say Mandy, my ex-wife,
because folks just distill her down to that.
She is an amazing creative in her own right,
and I give her so much credit for my early success
because she put up with all my early ideas and told me to go for it.
She's brilliant, and she runs my company.
When we got divorced, we loved each other,
but then we have this kid kid and I'm running nuts.
It was my first time being single.
So I'm being an idiot and we couldn't agree on co-parenting and we're constantly fighting and I'm just being an asshole.
And there's a moment when you're like, I just want some peace.
And you learn that in order to get peace, we need to be on the same page.
So I need to be respectful as the father of this beautiful daughter.
I need to give her mother all respect and praise and do.
So I need to pull back on my nonsense and actually listen to her, which was part of the problem.
I need to know what this nonsense is.
Because when you said you were being an ass, like define that.
Oh, I just think in the sense of it had to be my way or the highway.
And at the time she was dating one of my dancers, which is Jason.
So Jason was one of my dancers in my Vegas show.
They got together.
How did that work out?
Jason, you see every day, start dating your ex.
And how did you take that?
Ego.
When Brady gonna have to date?
Because now you got to fight me because you've been around all this time.
Now you owe me five minutes, Jason.
You know what I mean?
See, I'm saying it like it's a joke, but there was a time.
Thank God that Jason is.
I give Jason credit as well, man to man.
Jason is a beautifully, either Jason at that time was beautifully evolved or just so whatever that my rah-rah and my agitation towards him,
he really didn't let it get to him.
And now in hindsight, at one point, when they were dating,
I pulled up outside of her house like at 9 or 10 o'clock at night.
It always happens.
You know, like one of those old R&B songs when you've had a couple drinks.
You had that radio above your head.
Listen, I'm just a guy
who's just standing outside.
I'm like, you know what?
Tonight's the night.
I'm not going to let him.
He's not going to raise my daughter.
I won't come in that house.
I pay for this house.
Like I was the lead in a bad Tyler Perry movie.
I pay for this house.
You come outside right now, mother****.
What an idiot.
What did Jason do?
Did he come outside? He's like, hey man,
what's going on? I tell you what's going on.
And for years, I was on that track. Once I was able to start going
to therapy, which I have to
advocate, the best thing that I ever did for
my mental health and for my
relationship with my daughter and just
for me walking around in the world,
going to therapy. What got you there and did you fire Jason when you find out like
he's a dancer you find out he's dating your ex did you like you're fired well
well just to clarify for folks listening we were separated and getting the
divorce papers right gotcha so man he didn't do anything wrong nobody was
running around which makes me which is why I claim my stupidity. I claim my ignorance.
Some people do say that's against the bro code, though.
Were y'all friends?
You and Jason friends?
We were friends.
But you know, the reality is, he was working for me.
He wasn't like a dude that I would take a bullet for.
No offense, Jason.
Damn it, Jason.
He was a dude that worked.
Like, at the time.
Now Jason's family.
He was on my payroll.
I sign your checks.
Now you'll call 911. Right. Now you'll call 911.
Right.
Now I'll call 911.
Oh my God, he's shot.
Quick, please hurry up.
He's got a baby.
So yeah.
But then I should not have taken that stance.
Jason didn't owe me anything.
So in that instance, the bro code didn't apply.
And Mandy, Mandy, she didn't have to ask me.
Mandy said to me, Wayne, I am going to start dating.
We'd already been separated for a couple of years.
Wayne, I'd like to start dating.
I believe that Jason and I have a connection.
I was like, oh, yeah, do what you want.
I'm grown.
I'm in Vegas.
No, I should have expressed my true opinion.
Oh, so she told you she was real. She told me she was real. I gave have expressed my true opinion. Oh, so she told you.
She was real.
She told me she was real.
You gave it your blessing with your ego.
I gave it a fake blessing.
Yeah, you gave it a fake blessing.
My ego gave it the Pope wave.
What were you doing during this time?
Damn it, man.
Everything.
Everyone?
Just, you know, just being messy.
How did you end up in the house?
How was that conversation?
So the pandemic happened.
LA is crazy.
Everybody's scared.
Did you make the phone call and you'd be like hey i'm home now can i can
i come over like how did that conversation happen so we were close enough that we said okay well
this pandemic is happening we need to circle the wagons and uh i lived with them earlier that year
because my house was being renovated so i actually lived in the house with her, Jason and Miley so that's when we even started
talking about trying to write a sitcom because we just
thought this is really funny. We have
an insular village
like we are strong
More support. More support
and he knows that I've got his back
Alright we got more with Wayne Brady when we come back

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Wayne Brady.
Now, you have a show now where people didn't necessarily love what you were doing.
Let's make a deal.
Some white people were leaving messages, and they were racist messages and all that.
So what happened?
What did you do to make well see you know on the flip side I'm blickety-blickety
black now for some people not black enough for some people bingo it's like a
cb4 remember cuz I'm black y'all I'm black you know that's the funniest thing
if you go on the let's make a deal message boards depending on the day of
the week I'll have some white folks.
I am not watching this.
One dude, I saved this one because I sent it to the vice president of the network.
I loved this show at one point, but now it's like I'm watching a show on dot, dot, dot, BET.
Wow.
Discriminatory.
I liked you first, Wayne Brady, but all you do is you pick black people.
Four messages down.
You're a disgrace, Wayne Brady.
Whose ass are you kissing?
All these white people that you always making deals with.
You don't want us to get ahead.
I'm like, you all watch the same damn show.
They had the completely opposite reaction.
It was the same show.
So at this point, I'm like, look, you know what?
It is what it is.
And the thing is, I don't pick the people.
So spoiler alert, but I will say what is good, and I'm not going to apologize for this and
shout out to the production crew and Fremantle of Let's Make a Deal.
We have made sure that that show is inclusive of black people, of Latin people, of gay people, of trans people, of gay couples, the folks that will play.
But because if you look at a lot of game shows, there's not a lot of people of color.
And when there are people of color, they've been carefully curated to, let's just say, show one particular side of us that then the producers can frame some of the games like, oh, well, I'm
sorry, Mark
Cuida, that you couldn't answer that question.
No, there's none of
that. So if you're going to get mad at me because
we are giving everyone an equal shot,
sure. And yeah, like that dude
did, he had his 15 minutes
of fame leaving me that
message on the
CBS voice line. But they just played that one
I get those every other day. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, that is great. That is the world we live in
It's like isn't you know, I don't see color. I don't but come on
That's the most racist thing that you can say there's no way that you can't look at someone and see color
You can see color but respect respect the person. And so to
not see someone's color as a
blatant f***ing in the
face of their culture. I want to
be able to look at someone and go, oh,
you are Latin. I love the Latin culture.
Oh, you are Asian. I love this.
I'm not going to go, oh, no, no, no, no.
All I see is Jeffrey.

Impossible. No.

Because I was just saying.
Because I guess if you're not married, are you considered single if you're not married?
No.
No, no, no. It's in a relationship.

Yeah.
Like it's a different, like being, being single has its space.
And so I'm single and I like that space.
I like going home.
I like playing my Xbox in my drawers.
I like doing what I like doing.
Can't you do that though if you're married still?
You can, but I don't like the part of being married or being in a drawers. I like doing what I like doing. Can't you do that though if you're married still? You can, but I don't like
the part of being married or being in a relationship that I
realize I don't like is I don't like being beholden
in the best way. Hey, hey baby.

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's Friday, so you know what that means.
It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday.
Now, the Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday question is we're talking about sugar daddies.
Now, Angela Yee said she hasn't had a sugar daddy.
Now, Charlamagne, would you like to confess about anything?
I don't know what you're talking about.
What you about to lie about?
I'm not going to lie.
You didn't have an older person that was giving you money?
An older person that was giving me money?
What are you talking about?
Whoa.
You had an older lady that was giving you some money.
But how did that make her a sugar daddy?
Or a sugar mommy.
What are you trying to say about this woman?
I'm asking you, did you have a sugar mommy?
No, I need to know what you're trying to say about this woman.
I'm asking if you had a sugar mama.
Hmm.
Did I have a sugar mama?
Yeah.
I didn't know you could have a sugar mama, but I definitely had an older woman.
It's the same thing, yeah.
Back in the day.
Now, what was she giving you money for?
Sex.
How much was your sex worth?
She would give me like $2,000, $3,000.
$2,000?
You told us $100 before.
I ain't never told y'all that lie.
You said some chicken wings.
Yes, you did.
She would give me fried chicken.
She would give me fried chicken.
She would give me fried chicken and Twinkies,
and she would always give me like $2,000, $3,000.
Right.
And a car service home.
Your sex was worth fried chicken and Twinkies?
And $2,000, $3,000 and a car service home.
You never said $2,000 or $3,000 before. That's a lie. I've always said $2,000 or $ two, three thousand dollars and a car service home? You never said two or three thousand before.
That's a lie.
I've always said
two or three thousand.
So wait a minute.
What that got to do
with sugar daddies though?
Was that grandchild Twinkies
that you were eating?
She ain't got no grandkids.
You still speak to her?
Nope.
Now I will say this.
I'm looking at these rules, right,
to know about sugar dating.
What?
Sugar dating.
It's called sugar dating.
Can diabetics sugar date?
No.
Stay realistic.
Successful men seek out sugar babies for a reason,
and you need to stay in tune with that.
Have the terms and details laid out.
They also said the best way is to back yourself unquestionably.
So you have to be a fantastic companion, and he'll believe it too.
And be gracious.
They're going to shower you in gifts likely from the very first date,
so be gracious about it.
From new outfits to money for a new haircut
before a nice dinner, it's all part of the
arrangement, okay? Alright, well we
got Destiny on the line. Destiny, good morning.
Hi, good morning. Now you had a
sugar daddy? Destiny definitely had a
sugar daddy. How old was he and how
old were you? I was 18 years
old. He was like 50 years old.
Jesus Christ! And how much
money did he give you?
Wow.
And what did you have to do?
Just conversation?
Did you ever have to have sex with him?
Z, I told you. Did he leave you in his will?
No, he didn't die.
Oh, he's still alive.
Why do you think he's dead?
How old are you now?
I'm 22 now.
I turned 23 next month.
Oh, so he only like 54 now.
He young.
Do you still speak to him?
No, not at all.
Because he had to put some sugar. Oh, not at all. He asked for some sugar.
Oh, he wanted to.
So that's the thing. Are you a sugar daddy if you're not getting
none of the sugar?
That's part of the thing. I told you.
I'm still considering a sugar daddy
because of the stuff that you're giving up
to a younger person.
So when she's going to ask for some sugar, my wife
will definitely become not my sugar daddy.
Do you miss him? No, not one bit.
Okay. Was he white or black?
He was actually white. Okay.
Okay. That's a sodium
daddy. That's mayonnaise.
Shut up, man. Hello, who is this?
Melissa. Hey,
Melissa, you got a sugar daddy? No, my
daughter's right. What? How old's your daughter?
Wow. 26. Okay, how old is her sugar daddy? No, my daughter's right. What? How old's your daughter? Wow.

He gives her money?
Yeah.

Yes.
Wow.
How do you feel about that, Mom?
I don't know.
I don't know how to feel.
Did you have a sugar daddy?
Did she learn from you?
Yeah, you know she did.
No, she learned from my cousin.
Either way, diabetes runs in your family.
Does the sugar daddy get stuff for you too?
No, not really.
Is he older than you?
Yes.

He just really messes with me.
Like, I can call him anytime and he'll be there, like,
to do whatever it is that I need.
What's the most he ever gave you?
What's the most he ever gave you?
Well, I would just say he just does things for me.
Like, he helps me with my car.
Like, you know, he never really gives me money.
He just helps me do things that I need to be doing to get me.
I respect it.
I didn't know that you could be a sugar daddy if you wasn't actually sleeping with said individual.
I learned something this morning.
No, you don't have to.
You have to.
Listen, y'all, before y'all hang up on me, I sent all three of y'all a video yesterday.
Like, I want y'all to help me get my credit right.
Like, how that lady was.
I'm only 25.
No, call your granddaddy.
Call your granddaddy.
Call your granddaddy.
Ask him to help you get your credit right now.
Don't do that.
Oh, I have one more question for you.
When you have a sugar daddy, can you have a boyfriend
and then also have a sugar daddy help fund things on the side?
I did, but see, the situation with the boyfriend, he was in jail.
But, yeah, he just went home.
Goodness gracious.
That's why.
All right.
When are you coming home?
Oh, no, I don't mess with him no more.
Oh, okay.
He out of here.

I mean, he won't be home until he's your sugar daddy age.
That's what you're telling us right now.
Oh, that or he cheated on her.
In jail? Yeah, definitely. That's what it was in jail well no he was talking to an ex oh okay
yeah it's a lie y'all i'm about to say we're about to get another good story
i'm not hearing no successful sugar daddy stories man where's the happy endings where's the old man
the success is it's not something that goes on forever.
It's just a period of time.
For real?
You don't have to sleep with them.
They just give you money.
They help you out when you need it.
They treat you well.
You ain't got to do nothing but provide some conversation.
So ain't no marriage or nothing?
Charlamagne wanted to hit her.
Sugar daddy died, left you with a fortune.
Yeah, something.
It ain't all about that.
That's not the point of it.
Well, Anna Nicole said different. God bless the dick. Didn't Anna Nicole get left with a big fortune or something? She ain't all about that. That's not the point of it. Well, Anna Nicole said different.
God bless the day.
Didn't Anna Nicole get left with a big fortune?
She sure did.
All right, well, what's the moral of the story?
I have no idea what the moral of the story is
because I'm totally confused on what Sugar Daddy is.
When I think Sugar Daddy, I always think of Anna Nicole Swift.
All right, we got more coming up next, so don't move.
Happy holidays.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special, some special guests in the building.
Legends.
Some icons, some legends.
Yeah.
We got the locks.
What up, what up, what up, what up?
Yo!
First of all, I got to apologize to y'all for ever fronting on y'all.
Yeah.
In a versus.
It's all good.
And thinking Dipset had a chance.
Yo, he wasn't alone though, dog.
Everybody thought the set was going to win.
It had nothing to do with lyrical ability.
We all know lyrically the locks are superior.
It was about the anthems.
I just thought they had bigger records.
The bigger records.
Just for the record, I said that I felt like the locks was going to be more prepared and organized and be able to pull it off.
We have the audio.
I said that.
I said that.
Well, first of all, did they approach you to do the Dipset Battle or was it somebody else at first?
Swish called me.
Swish called.
And then Cam had started calling me.
Was there any, like, you know what, maybe we shouldn't do it.
Because at one time it was getting so disrespectful.
I seen the old ghost coming back out
We was never gonna cross the line. Yeah
That's New York I thought a FMD was coming yo, I'm not gonna lie We were now we said that that we said before we seen can we you know rehearsals early in the garden?
No, Frank standing. No, I don't don't don't swig in my face. I mean, now we're going to get chill. What about, what about, I can't, that's not freaks, man. I was on it from the jump.
You know,
this from the jump.
What about,
what about ripping bandanas
off her hands
and throwing it on the ground?
Is that okay?
Y'all,
y'all,
oh shit,
you know what,
society always sees
the last most impactful thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hold on,
listen, listen.
Society always sees
and remembers
the last most impactful thing.
Now,
if he didn't throw the bandana kiss,
and Jewels would have just pushed through both of us,
and Rock, like, we was all having fun.
We let him do it.
It's like a game, dog.
Like, you got to make sure you counter every move that deserves a counter, dog.
He could have pushed him back.
He took that.
Nah, what's funnier, the slam the bandana's 90s talk.
What happened with you and Jim in the corner?
I mean, you and Cam in the corner.
We looked like you were going to rip his sneaker off.
And she calmed you down.
She picked him off the floor.
I looked like he was laughing, though.
I sat on the chair.
The beach chair broke.
He blacked out.
Somebody call Trell and look at the footage.
All I want you to do.
Cam was looking at me like, what is he doing?
I said, I have no idea.
I just want you to.
She got a s*** right there.
I saw Cam kick you.
You grabbed his foot.
You laughed at him.
You flexed and laughed.
You flexed and laughed.
Repeat.
Repeat, see the guy.
What did you see?
He kicked you.
You grabbed his foot.
And then you flexed and laughed.
What happened before he kicked you?
Because when he kicked me, if you'd noticed, when he kicked me, I was in the middle of my verse.
He hit me again.
No, he caught me.
He only kicked me in my hip.
He didn't kick my body.
He kicked my head.
He f***ed me in the verse.
I'm glad you seen it.
Thank God.
That's all right.
On broad radio.
I don't grab a sneaker first. I sat on a chair. The chair it. Thank God. That's all right. On broad radio. I don't even know. I don't even know.
I sat on a chair.
The chair broke.
Boof.
He went to nudge me.
I didn't move.
Then he went to do it again.
Then I grabbed his foot because I was performing.
Yeah.
Then when I finished with my verse, I was a little in the mix.
Yeah.
After the verse, but I didn't just go over there and grab his foot.
For a second, yeah. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm glad. I'm glad. I'm glad. That's all I was like. After the verse, but I didn't just go over there and grab it. For a second, yeah.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
I'm glad.
That's what I said.
I'm glad I see you in the glass.
That's all right.
See, the kid in it.
They think I'm crazy.
I'm crazy, but I ain't that crazy.
In there, I didn't see that.
Yeah, they edited.
I see what we allude to saying, all right, Pete, chill.
All right.
That's all I see.
And he was in.
What about me?
He came out calling him the vagina word.
I told him to chill.
Nobody say that. Everybody has to tell each other to chill. I'm the out calling him the vagina word. I told him to chill. Nobody say that.
Everybody has to tell each other to chill.
I'm the bad guy all the way around.
Even kids, too, though.
Even kids, when kids said, you know, you're a pussy,
you're a dick, y'all neighbors, even though that's an 05 verse,
people thought that was new just for that battle,
and you was just disrespecting the shit out of them.
It was 2010.
It wasn't 05?
Dub Don.
Oh, I thought that was Green Lantern.
That's what I said in the beginning.
But that was a dope thing about it. Oh, I thought that was a dream letter. That's what I said in the beginning. But that was a dope thing about it.
The younger generation thought it was a new freestyle.
Yeah, they thought it was brand new.
Brand new.
I'm sitting like, that's the younger generation better go Google us.
Just clearly by the services of y'all, Def Jam made it a single.
Now, what did you think?
Really?
Did they?
They just cleared it last night.
Oh, my God.
What did you think when Cam tried to freestyle?
No, I felt bad when they bowled him.
I take that.
Killer is nice.
He rattled them up.
When we start going live and doing freestyles, he got that in him.
But he probably didn't prepare to do that,
and he was about to do one that he had,
and probably was a little turbulent.
I was getting on his nerves.
You can't boo Cam in New York.
I didn't want him to get booed either.
That's your fault.
I think we was getting on his nerves.
I'm definitely trying to get on this.
Now, Kiss, how did you plan this out?
Because after the fab battle, right, people thought you were going to lose the fab battle, right?
That's not.
I said Kiss was going to watch fab.
I said that.
I know I'm 2-0.
A lot of people said you were going to lose the fab battle.
Somebody better do some type of put me somewhere.
I'm the only person to do versus twice.
You missed the versus.
Bow wow Mr. 106 and Park.
You missed the versus.
That's fitting.
Now, after the
Fab battle, right? That was DJ
and you came to the side. He was like,
that was my plan. I planned this out. I was
going to push him where he didn't want to do the
Lady records no more. And then you said,
I got him. Now, how did you plan this one
out? What was your mindset on the thing?
We planned on going live, going off
the instrumentals, giving them live things and doing the freestyles
We know they didn't plan on doing
He's a perfectionist from the Bronx New York
Tell me when where the audibles were I mean when he up. I love you, baby. Switching that up like crazy. Tell me where the audibles were.
When he said, y'all don't mess with the chicks.
Y'all don't have a chick magazine.
But we had a whole stack ready for it.
He knew that.
When you said, somebody said it was like wrestling,
I couldn't believe he said, I don't like the ladies.
I don't got no records for the ladies.
Oh, y'all was ready for that one.
I love how she edited it himself, too.
You said the B word one time, but then you caught yourself because you realized you were in 2021. And you said ladies. Oh, yeah,all was ready for that one. I love how Sheik edited himself, too. You said the B word one time, but then you caught yourself
because you realized you were in 2021, and you said ladies.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, hell yeah.
What?
They defried me.
Now, do you think that there were songs Dipset should have done
that they didn't?
Because I felt like they missed it.
They most definitely left some joints out that I'm so happy.
That I love.
I'm so happy.
They DJed and had it.
One time, Kiss was like, I don't even know this record.
Now, Kiss, did you write Horse and Carriage?
That's been an internet rumor since the Versus.
No, no, no.
OK, OK.
I wasn't even in a studio session for that.
I just heard that when it came out.
What happened with Mase?
I heard you guys were supposed to bring out Mase.
Yeah, we was going to bring out Mase and Diddy.
We was going to bring Mace and Diddy out
and make Mangle the...
I'm glad we didn't.
I was against it from the beginning,
but I was like, it may be dope,
but I really wanted to show what we do.
You know what I mean?
But you know what we love?
They really hate him, man.
They would have tried Mace there.
That was what was really smart about Jimmy making it
Harlem versus Yonkers.
If Mace from Harlem went with Yonkers,
that would have been nasty.
They would have tried to attack Mason there.
They definitely would have.
We would have protected him.
We would have protected him.
I mean, it's a versus battle.
It's not a fight, guys.
Murder is good.
Mace heard the skills in Yonkers, though.
They would have been excited, I think.
Being with y'all.
Mace was heavy on her early.
They should have called Mace.
And why y'all didn't have a record to come out?
A mixtape, seven songs, nothing.
Just sit back.
Just relax.
Just sit back.
And then the day we was going to go make the record,
we got called to go do the Kanye record.
We're busy men at Kanye.
You've been writing on Kanye projects for a minute, though, right, Stas?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So was that pre-planned before the verses that you guys were going to Atlanta? Nah. No. men at Kanye. You've been writing on Kanye projects for a minute, though, right, Stas? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So was that pre-planned before the Versus
that you guys were going to Atlanta?
Nah.
No.
Not at all.
Nothing.
I don't think Kanye knew the locks on Monday.
Now, holy.
Let's talk about that, Kis.
Who's somebody that's been fronting on y'all for years,
but they kind of on your frank now after the Versus?
I'm kind of like a change reformed person now.
So yeah.
Thank you, Kis. Thank you. It's a change reform person now. Thank you, kids.
It's a plethora.
It's unbelievable. Some of these
calls and DMs and meetings and
I mean, it's beautiful. Kids change their number
on me. I have kids that say congratulations.
Nah, never change my number.
He just didn't respond.
You gotta give me
a pass on that. President,
everybody, my second grade teacher.
I got a student check.
Obama hit you?
No, I'm impressed.
All right, we got more with the locks.
When we come back, don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Sheik Looch, Styles P, and Jadakiss the Locks.
Charlamagne?
You know, I heard Sheik on Sway Show,
and you were saying that Diddy told y'all to do the freestyles that day.
Was there any hesitation to do them?
No, not at all.
That was already in the books.
That just sealed it.
He FaceTimed me like seven in the morning.
I wanted to do way more records, way more freestyle stuff.
He told me a rhyme that he had.
Kiss was catching every pass
and throwing them bombs.
Like, don't take him
out the game.
Let's go.
I think that was
a big difference, too.
I think a lot of groups
need to understand.
You got to know
where to place your ego
and how to move
like a vehicle
and who's the machine.
And be for the cause
of the team.
And for the win.
As long as we win,
I always want the MVP.
So does he. So does he. But if he come in and he's hitting, keep hitting, bro. I always want the MVP. So does he, so does he.
But if he come in and he's hitting, keep hitting, bro.
We ain't going to throw our ego and pride.
Let's stick to it.
Stick to the plan.
Plus, that's what we said.
I was trying to get them hype.
I was playing dip set videos, the disses.
I was trying to get them hype.
Let's go.
Let's get in here.
I was popping crap from the jump side.
But, you know, it was more than just let's go.
And especially if Cam would have came out, if Jim and I think Jules would have kept that in mind with Cam,
it would have been a different day.
They didn't have the energy.
Yeah.
If you would have came out with that Cam energy or something,
the venue probably would have went a lot different.
Was Cam really about the leaf
We going out we heard that though we was kind of crappy when we heard that get us to the stage
What was that the money cuz I seen y'all do the live.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, man.
All the promoters across the world, man.
We want that money.
It was some gang.
They got scared of some gang.
When Jones tapped me and said whatever he said about the gang thing,
they said a few promoters pulled out from there.
Yeah, yeah, you shouted out some.
Before you get certified gangsta with that little,
as you said right there,
I guess that was some gangster...
You know,
it's the sad part about it.
Regardless,
they should look how big
that night was in hip-hop.
All the companies involved.
Magic Square Garden,
Bloods, Crips,
Latin Kings, everybody.
No altercations in that.
No matter how chippy it was,
we left there together
saying peace,
hugging,
chilling,
laughing and smiling
with each other's brothers, calling each other later.
And they're such gentlemen.
And I tip my hat to all of them because they all reached out, hit us personally as gentlemen of this game.
Like, yo, y'all have a good night.
Those my bros.
You know, I wonder, because y'all perform so much together.
Like, when you see Kiss put on the performance he put on in the garden.
We've heard everybody else rave about it. How did yall feel like yo he's in the zone don't doubt let him
go it's beautiful i go back to what i'm saying let him ride some nights we have you know i mean
that's the good thing about having a three-man group some nights is luch at the helm me and p
is just ad-libbing and holding them down. You can't fake chemistry, man. You see that? You can't fake chemistry.
If it's his night,
let it be his night.
I created a mode called
Adderall War Mode.
You made me want to do Adderall, yo.
I wasn't on Adderall. You said that, though.
No, I was in Adderall
War Mode.
I came in here the next day
asking him,
I thought, producer Dan, because he's done Adderall.
I'm like, yo, Adderall, you think you can do that?
In my mind, I was on Adderall.
Because he's done Adderall.
And I was in war mode.
Yeah.
And I thought about getting one,
but I didn't need one because I already
felt like I was already moving.
Yeah, he was on it.
And that's what felt good.
Like, as a group, you want to go in there like that.
He was, I remember walking out the room when the thing he was like
I'm focused And it wasn't working. Then when he came out and said, yo, young a**, I said, yes.
Like, if you love me, I got to give a**es.
When he came out like that, that's when a**es turned into a**es.
Because she's like Smart Hulk.
You know what I'm saying?
He's like Smart Hulk, like the brawn and the brain together.
So he's always ready.
When it comes to clothes, right, because obviously Dipset is known for their gear.
Did you think about that, too?
We knew they was going to try to use everything except the elements of hip-hop.
Demographics of we being from Yagas and they in Manhattan and Harlem so close.
They say Sugar Jay there with Minx and this and we knew they was.
Besides, we've been performing for 50 million years we got all of that I love you guys that was
like we in the ring it was a battle y'all look war right yeah have gear
tired that you can get busy I love the way I respect each other right the
reason I say that is like doing, doing an interview, right?
If she talk and say, yo, kiss, chill.
Kiss, be like, ah, go ahead.
You don't see, but only brothers can do that because there's no ego involved.
Oh, no.
There's no egos.
But, like, even when you said shut the fuck up at the event, I could see it was one of
the things.
Like, no, I'm going to keep talking.
I'm going to keep talking.
Like, it was one of those things.
Like, you controlled it.
Like, shit, shit, shit, shit.
Chill out.
P! Like, you don't really get that get that like y'all really trust each other y'all never at all catch feelings with each other like
yo let me talk to you after this never at all let me talk to you after this you be mad at each other
or whatever for a second but that's about it like pleasant regular life it's like the studio like
you know what i'm saying it's not just shows shows. It's studio. It's regular life.
If I'm doing something stupid or I'm wrong, hold me back.
If I say I got it, believe me that I got it.
You know what I'm saying?
So that brotherhood, it really comes with beyond music.
It comes with time.
Our code that we said we was going to do before we got here is what kept us here and on the hamster wheel this long.
Don't let the money or the women break up the group look at all the other groups and don't be them
ever been without talking to each other i don't know apparently was doing covert maybe a little
and we still yeah that probably was cold about it and still tapping and making sure everybody
was taking like even all the years people ask for the Locks album, people don't understand. We own a studio together.
We see each other a few times a week.
Or every day.
Or every day.
Like, you know what I mean?
So it's kind of like when everybody else is looking at the group,
yeah, we're a group, but the group is beyond music.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
So I think when you have that understanding.
And that's like, you can't be mad at your brother for always being, that's like saying I'm mad at Looch
because the women think he's sexier.
Yo, I'm trending on Black Twitter, yo.
I'm trending on Black Twitter, yo.
I'm trending on Black sexy, baby. I'm fine AF.
You know what I'm saying?
You're fine AF?
Yeah, I'm fine AF.
I meant to tell you that, dude.
I meant to tell you that, dude.
Hold on.
Speaking of that,
Kiss, has Tyler, the creator,
reached out to you?
He gave you some high praise.
Tyler, the creator,
better chill out with it.
I like Tyler the Creator. You know he does that.
That just means that he tapped into our frequency,
and he loved verses.
So I didn't take it as disrespect.
But what he said, he expounded.
He was just like,
He had a crotch on me or some crazy.
Yeah, but he expounded and said, he said, you care.
He said, that's what he got.
He was like kissing the locks.
Care about the craft of a rat
And what's wrong with the fat from Julio man, you know, I mean that's another do or don't. That was a fun one. Shout out to Zeke. Shout out to Zeke. And congrats on getting the key to the city.
Yeah.
Shout out to the man, Mike Spano.
Love you, man, Mike Spano.
Where was y'all at?
Cheek and Kiss.
I was booking the temple.
Okay.
We just landed.
I forgot what I was doing.
Cheek was watching the prices, right? He was like, what the hell?
You know you gotta watch that.
You're shitting me.
You're shitting me.
I'm really knocking.
That's what they would probably do.
That's crazy.
All right, well, don't move.
Let's get into a Lox mini-mix.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with the Lox.
Charlamagne?
Why didn't y'all do Breathe Easy?
We wanted to do Wave On.
It's a 20-batch.
It might be another 40-batch. We don't know. You know what I mean? Charlemagne why didn't y'all do brief easy?
Really Mayweather promotions they wanted
There was a opportunity would y'all love to see that we don't pick the opponents We just pay for whoever they access the. At this point, I can only see G-Unit.
I knew he was going to say that. That's the only one I could
really see. That'd be kind of bad.
I was listening to
Problem Child Freestyle all week.
That would be kind of bad.
Why would you listen to that?
You know why? Because
after the verses, that's all you heard was locks
everywhere. The barbershop.
I went to my guy's studio who's a white guy.
Six white guys in there listening to the locks.
And so Problem Shop Freestyle just came on randomly.
And I was like, yo, that was bad.
Like, y'all really were disrespectful.
Speaking of that, we knew a lot of the youth didn't know our history.
Right.
And going to work when it's time to go to work.
Like, we're going to go to work.
They said something.
We'll listen to it.
And from the hour, we right in the studio. like we we're gonna go to work they said something we'll listen to it and from
the hour we write in the studio we're like we listening to the disc smoking
laughing at it oh it's good this is fun and within an hour or two we're
literally in the studio getting to work how did y'all transition from streets to
saying okay this is internet right remember the state property beef right
they got to the point where they had to stop
because somebody was going to die, right?
Yeah, that was when it was time.
That was personal.
Yeah, everybody had guns on them
and it was crazy.
Yeah, we were younger and dumber
and more egotistical and prideful,
so definitely.
We smarted.
I used to drive to Mitchell and Ness
with my hammer on me.
Word.
Back then, all the way to Philly,
I would never do that right now.
No, no, no.
Don't go on. Just to get jerseys? Yeah, just over with my hammer Back then all the way to Philly I would never do that right now
Just to get jerseys? Yeah, just over with my hammock cause at the time it was on
We squashed it in Riverside Park
I know I had a gun on me
I know Segal probably
It probably was wild guns, it was state police there
It was the stupidest s*** I ever did in my life
Sheik, how bad did you want a jersey?
You had it in the height of the beef
You had to go to Mitchell's.
That's how ignorant we were, though.
It was an event.
It was some type of event going on in Riverside Park.
I think it was a Nike hip hop, something.
I don't remember.
But D, I called me.
He said, yo, come down.
They all there.
So, you know, gripped up.
I know they was gripped up.
And me and Sheik just walked off somewhere in the park and kicked it and ceased it.
Let's clear up some of this internet stuff, though.
They said, okay, we know you didn't write Horsin' Cash.
You just said that.
Because the internet going crazy.
They said Jada wrote Biggie's verse on last day.
Yo, shut up.
I'm serious.
I never heard that one.
I never heard that one.
Cite your soul.
They said, what site is this?
This is Boxed In.
It's Boxed In.
They said Jada wrote Biggie's verse on Only You.
So you wrote Biggie.
I didn't even know Big did it.
They said you wrote Biggie and Diddy's verse on More Money, More Problems.
No.
I did have a verse on there that they never used.
You probably hear it when I'm dead.
And they said you wrote the whole Jenny from the Block thing.
Jenny from the Block.
I'm going to tease on this.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What? The whole Jenny from the block thing. Jenny from the block. I'm being teased on this. That's what I said. Whoa.
Whoa. Whoa.

.
Whoa.
. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. I had another verse. He's like, nah, you could come harder than that. And when I gave him the one I came with, he loved it.
Now, let me ask you this.
There were people that I'm sure y'all are cool with
that know you guys personally,
and you might have seen people talking-ish online
about who was going to win.
Did you confront any of those people
whom I decided would dip set?
Only one P is mad at is Kevin Durant.
And DJ Drama.
Drama did a gangsta grills.
I ain't mad at Drama.
Drama is cool. Drama gets so much money right grills his ears is a little messed up I
wasn't mad but it was like the ran is my man yo and he said that my son said
LeBron would have never said that
he was gonna hit that last shot in the overtime.
I was hurt by that.
For him to say that to me, it hurt me.
It hurt me, man.
If you listen to me, you hurt us.
It had nothing to do with y'all skill.
When he didn't have a ring, I said he was better than LeBron.
They bought him a dip set chain.
He had to go for it.
You bought KD a dip set chain?
I didn't buy him any.
Oh, Cam bought him a dip set chain.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You gotta go.
He would have seen smoke.
I've never seen no shit like that.
I'm not even joking.
That was one of the greatest performances I've ever seen in the garden of any industry.
This was what was crazy.
I seen Michael Buffer.
That was crazy.
I seen Michael Buffer.
That was one of the best things of the night. If you could go back and pull the tapes in the garden, I seen Michael Buffer. That was crazy. I seen Michael Buffer. But look, I'm going to show you
if you could go back
and pull the tapes
in the garden,
I seen Michael Buffer.
They wasn't with me.
We was,
you know,
they was in the back.
I walked out,
look at the ring,
seeing Michael Buffer.
First thing I did,
bow down,
a straight bow.
That's Michael Buffer.
I'm like,
holy state.
I'm talking with
Michael Buffer,
chilling.
We kicking it.
So I'm telling him,
I watched his documentary
with his brother,
all that. He's Michael Buffer, super cool We kicking it. So I'm telling him I watched his documentary with his brother, all that.
Michael Buffett's super cool.
Shout out to him.
Kiss comes by, does the same exact thing.
We was in sync with the garden.
We was in sync.
Brotherhood.
Looch came by, I see them.
Looch too big for the bow. I don't know.
What's up, man?
What's up, Michael Buffett?
Bigger, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yo, Michael Buffett. You're like, I'll say, yo, we's up, what's up? I said, what's up, what's up? Bigger, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yo, Michael Buffett, you're like, I said, yo, we good money, though.
So I think just me and his sync with everything.
Rotary.
Everything was his.
Even when they was like, oh, Sheik, you rap, you don't got nothing?
Yeah, Reservoir Dogs.
Oh, man.
Bruh.
So y'all thought through everything.
Absolutely.
We had all of that planned.
It was like chess.
We did six, seven hours
Rehearsal on Monday
I know when he's gonna
Get out of breath
He know what word
To catch for me
Or when you go on
To get a drink or whatever
I'ma rock
I'ma talk to the crowd
You was expecting that
From Dipset
You ain't gonna see that with him
They don't move like that
You know what I mean
If you go back and watch
There's spots where
I'm not saying nothing
And they saying my parts
Yeah
When he was going at it
With Kim
I did the whole Remainder of his verse He did my verse I checked that out I'm not saying nothing, and they saying my part. Yeah. When he was going at it with Kim, I did the whole remainder of it.
He did my part.
I checked that out.
I'm doing it.
And then you could anticipate what they were going to do
and what they were going to say.
Did he used to tell us, yo, if you over here,
you need to be on that side of the stage.
Like, always occupy the stage.
Don't try to take our shit ever, yo.
Nah, we should give it to him,
because that's going to keep the culture alive, to be honest.
Like, learn about your show.
Learn to not just stand on stage looking cool.
Learn your words.
Learn your words.
It's your song.
You got to know the words.
And especially the honor, Roger, is you got to hold your people down.
Being an artist comes with being a businessman, being a showman, being a gentleman, and then being a beast.
So I think a lot of kids you know especially nowadays
We get these these so much money getting so much money
This is someone and he's you know they don't got a and R's like bad boy have rough riders had Def Jam
they're not developing these artists and um and I'm gonna give you a
Example not to kind of throw it out there
But if you if you gonna be on cancel culture you can't be with mental health culture either.
Who trained the baby to say, all right, you're in this industry now.
This is how it's going to go.
This is what it's going to do.
Because I'm pretty sure he's been around plenty of gay people.
He has.
He's in the industry.
He's been styled by them.
He's been dressed by them.
He's done deals.
But no one's speaking up on his behalf saying, all right.
I'm not to say I'm speaking.
I'm saying he did something wrong.
But who developed them in that building to say, young man, you get multiple millions now.
You get around this.
When you're around corporate, this is how it goes.
When you're around this.
Nobody's teaching.
Nobody's teaching.
They're just blasting you.
Then you're going to cancel when they're saying.
Because if you say something or do something out of line to the world, in front of the world, that's kind of a mental health issue.
I'm not saying you're all the way out there.
You might just snap for a minute.
But you just can't keep canceling everybody and say you're concerned about mental health and not developing them.
He was selling probably drugs three years ago in North Carolina.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Carrying guns, selling drugs, any of the things.
What makes you think he got all of that money? And if y'all not
there to guide him and his execs and
older artists and
even parents who's in a good position saying,
yo, bro, we can't do this, we can't do that.
And, you know.
That's my biggest thing.
Why you don't apologize?
He did, he apologized.
Somebody gotta tell people how to apologize, too.
That's right.
He probably didn't mean it, but it's even about somebody got to tell people how to apologize too. That's right. Like sometimes, like he probably didn't mean it,
but his apology probably wasn't homely enough
for people who felt the damage.
So they don't have enough to teach these kids
what's going on.
That's all it's about.
And then look, here's what's really up about it.
You ain't just canceling him.
You're canceling his kids, his baby mom, his mom,
his team, his security. So we got to start team. His security. His team. His security.
So we gotta start thinking. I'm not saying
nobody deserves to get canceled.
I'm just saying when it's kids, we gotta start thinking
about their mental situation.
A bunch of people that deserve to get canceled
that day just overlooked.
But I will say there's 11 organizations
that are coming together that want to just have
a conversation with him to make
it a teachable thing. And they're like, look, we want to talk to you. Because there's a lot of people that do feel the way a conversation with him to make it a teachable thing and they're like,
look,
we want to talk to you
because there's a lot of people
that do feel the way
that he does
so this is a great opportunity
for him to learn
and then for other people
to learn.
It's a very thin line
between counseling
and canceling,
like you said.
It should be more counseling
instead of you just getting mad
and dead in these kids.
And even with y'all,
it was interesting
because like,
old 90s hip hop
was crazy, was crazy, right?
So there were slurs that were said
at verses, but I could tell somebody
caught it and was like, yo, don't let
that go again. You know what I mean?
But we also said that, you know, some of them slurs
weren't meant to be slurs.
Like, some of those words you were saying, somebody was soft.
But now, it don't mean that.
You know what I mean?
We wanted to show y'all some love this morning, give you y'all flowers.
Thank you.
Yeah, that's why we got the balloons and everything.
I tried to get your sizes to out some Tims.
Yo, you ain't even seen us.
We gave y'all flowers.
I should have said love.
No, lots, man.
I just said love, and it finished.
I tried to get y'all sizes.
We was going to get y'all all Tims, man.
Yeah, we got food out there for y'all.
We gave y'all flowers and a weed.
This is a real celebration.
Y'all got the weed, right?
Y'all got the weed downstairs.
Baby, I just want to lighten up. Yeah, we got food out there for y'all. We gave y'all flowers and a weed. Y'all got the weed, right?
Y'all got the weed downstairs, right?
Baby, I just wanna light the fire.
I just wanna light the fire.
For the whole world who wants to get Velowat State flowers,
weed.
We got some flowers for y'all too, man.
We're just gonna take care of that.
We form a high THC.
And as artists, I just want to say that y'all always show up
for me, no matter what it is.
You know that.
What I need, whether it's birthday, album.
Come in here and cop some houses in a minute.
Whatever you need.
Because we still got to open the juice bar, man.
Monk's Corner.
Yes.
Oh, in South Carolina.
What's up?
You're leaving me out?
I got it.
I got it.
What's wrong with you?
He got the demographic, and he know where to spot it.
Yeah.
Let's do that. Let's make that happen soon, please. And thanks for our gift, too, and he know where to spot it. Yeah. Let's do that.
Let's make that happen soon, please.
And thanks for our gift, too, Styles, of Pharmacy for Life.
No doubt. Shout out to Pharmacy.
We brought some life to it.
My wife told me to make sure I bring that to y'all.
Thank you so much.
Appreciate that.
Oh, wow.
Salad Stop Leaf?
It's a capsule?
Yeah.
Yeah, dog.
That's what we do.
I'm going to take one of these, man.
We do this, man.
It's the L-O-X, man.
No doubt, baby.
It's the L-O-X.

This don't be a donkey,
because right now you want some real donkeys.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man,
hit me with the heel.
Did she get donkey in the name, please, Deli? Absolutely.
I have become Donkey of the Day.
At the Breakfast Club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Ah, Donkey of the Day goes to Lakeisha club, bitches. You're a donkey.
Donkey of the day goes to Lakeisha Golden.
Now, according to her GoFundMe, it says she's from Nashville, Tennessee.
Who is Lakeisha Golden?
Well, believe it or not, even though she's the one getting donkier the day to day,
a lot of you have something in common with Lakeisha Golden. See, a lot of y'all going to prison for COVID-19 loan fraud cases.
I don't want to hear it.
You knew you was lying when you filled out the application.
OK, as of April 15th, 2021, there's over one hundred and eighty nine billion dollars in questionable PPP loans.
OK, I read an article on Pogo dot org that said when it comes to PPP fraud cases, law enforcement is just scratching the surface.
Oh, they just getting started okay
the pogo article spoke on how the sba's oversight of its taxpayer-backed lending programs proved
inadequate because they became a feeding ground for fraudsters a bunch of hitman scammy scams
well guess what uncle scam uncle sam wants you and by you, I mean wants your ass in prison.
OK, the Justice Department has brought criminal charges against at least 209 individuals
and 119 cases related to PPP fraud since banks and other lenders began processing loan applications on behalf of the SBA.
OK, on April 3rd, 2020. And according to Pogo.org, this is just the beginning.
Let me tell you something. I have never claimed to be the highest grade this is just the beginning let me tell you something i have never
claimed to be the highest grade of weed in the dispensary i have told you over and over that i
am not the strongest avenger but i told you all last year in the middle of this pandemic when
they started giving out these damn ppp loans that a bunch of y'all was going to prison llc twitter
was born during the pandemic okay all of y'all with your dumbass LLC names,
you got your slave master's last name LLC'd.
Jenkins LLC and Johnson LLC and Jackson LLC.
Naming LLCs after things going on in your life.
Ain't got no job, LLC.
Living with mom at 32, LLC.
Only smoke exotic, LLC.
I hate you, niggas, LLC.
Well, that's mine. That's my LLC. I hate you niggas LLC. Well, that's mine.
That's my LLC. I just established that in my brain for people I don't talk to after
5 p.m. And that's you. Okay, but
listen, who told y'all the government
was giving out free money? You Negroes
believe in every BS conspiracy
theory. Oh, 5G towers
are causing COVID. Oh, the earth is really
flat. But when it comes to the Paycheck
Protection Program lending out $755 billion to businesses as of April 11th, you thought it was all good?
You thought that the government's cup just runneth over and they are finally going to do right by the
American people? No, it was a trap. OK, was it a way to help legitimate small businesses? Yes,
but they also knew the poor and disenfranchised among us who were in dire need at the time would
take advantage of these loans. That's why they
didn't stop the alleged fraud because they were
playing the long game. Take the money.
Ball out. We gonna
come get your ass later, okay, and
throw you under the jail and get some free labor out
your ass. Fraudulent PPP
loans, making false statements to the SBA,
carry a fine of up to a million
dollars and 30 years
of federal imprisonment and guess who doesn't feel sorry for you me okay because you LLC Twitter
niggas know okay y'all know everything about everyone else's business but don't know how to
handle your own and now okay eventually you will find yourself in a situation like Lakeisha Golden
is in first of all let me tell you something I respect Lakeisha Golden is in. First of all, let me tell you something. I respect Lakeisha Golden
and I'm going to tell you why. She's honest.
See, Lakeisha started a GoFundMe
with the title
Help Me Pay Back
the PPP Loan. And the details
of the loan, she said, and I'm going to read it just the way
she typed it. I got $20,000
PPP loan.
Now the feds after me.
PLZ. Help, I can't do jail i got three kids
dat d-a-t need me so far she's raised three thousand five hundred and thirteen dollars
who are you captain saver niggas okay sometimes you must get out of the way of the lesson god
is trying to teach a person lakisha you can't use the same excuse you use when you applied for the
loan okay i need to see what your llc name is Can we look that up? Can we look up what Lakeisha
Golden's LLC name is? I'm thinking of something like Living Life Golden LLC, Golden Girl LLC,
Golden My Watch, Golden My Chain LLC. Or was it all golden everything LLC? I hate when I can smell
niggatry. I like to send my niggatry subtle. Okay?
Anyway, you can't use the same excuse you used
when you applied for the loan. I guarantee
when you convinced yourself to
commit this crime, you said,
you have to do what you got to do. You got
three kids. Dat. D-A-T
needs you. Now that you're facing jail time,
you can't go to jail because you got
three kids. Dat. D-A-T needs
you. Uh-uh. Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. Now she's kids that D.A.T. need you.
Now she's got 91 donors. I saw her post an update.
She said, keep donations coming. Y'all, my kids need me out here.
F.R. F.R. If you don't speak fluent, nigga, that means for real, for real. What I don't understand is the people donating money and scolding her at the same time.
OK, three hours ago, someone donated five dollars and said, dumbass, how you blow through 20K?
Some anonymous person donated $1,000.
I need you to know, anonymous, that God is not pleased with that.
You getting in the way of what God is trying to teach Lakeisha Golden.
Lakeisha, this isn't your first poor choice in life.
Okay?
And God is tired.
He's been sending all your prayer requests to his spam folder
because you just don't listen.
All right? Somebody named Claus CL donated donated one thousand dollars. Klaus. Why?
Klaus, if your first name isn't Santa, I don't see the need for the gift.
Katie Sweeney donated six hundred dollars. She donated one hundred dollars once and another five hundred later.
Katie, I know you might be trying to create some good karma for yourself, but this isn't the way.
Whatever happens to Lakeisha Golden, she earned it.
OK, what she didn't earn was that twenty thousand dollars.
But she earned that time she's going to get.
Yes, I don't want to see her away from her kids.
But guess what?
She shouldn't want to see herself away from her kids.
Therefore, she needs to make better choices.
I love everybody donating just to get jokes off.
But you're donating too much.
Five dollars is too much.
OK, donate a dollar to get these jokes off but you're donating too much five dollars is too much okay donate a dollar to get these jokes off somebody donated five dollars and put tell me you're a broke ass b without telling
me you're a broke ass b somebody put prison jumpsuit designer for five dollars somebody else
put have fun in jail girl buy not buy b-y-e-b-u-y and then they donated donated five dollars
i don't know, man.
You know, let me not knock this woman's hustle.
If y'all want to give this woman $20,000 to pay her PPP loans off, that's on you.
But when do people learn from their mistakes if they never have to deal with the consequences of said mistake?
How will Lakeisha Golden ever know true responsibility if she can just finesse the system for $20,000 when she's broke and then finesse people with a sob story to pay that money back.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Listen, message for all you future convicts who are going to jail for PPP fraud.
I hope the double-wide trailer you bought in the country was worth it.
Okay, don't be surprised if they take that back if you can't pay the loan back.
Okay, I hope the trip to Miami was worth it.
Finger Lickin' is a good ass restaurant, isn't it?
You stayed at Fountain Blue.
You enjoyed the cookies.
Okay, great.
Those memories will get you through those long, lonely nights in that cell.
I don't feel sorry for you.
I know real legitimate small businesses who had to go under because they couldn't get
no money from these PPP loans.
So I have no remorse for your finessing ass.
Okay.
The word of the day is accountability.
All right?
You either make yourself accountable or you will be made accountable by your circumstances.
Please let Remy Ma give Lakeisha Golden the biggest hee-haw.
Hee-haw, hee-haw.
You stupid mother f***er.
You dumb.
And you better not be over there on your phone donating to her.
Envy.
I am.
You know, I just, I wasn't paying attention.
I just heard PPP scam.
You want to play a game? No.
No need to play
a game with this one.
That's all
this is. So you don't want to play a game?
No, no, no. No need to play a game here.
We know exactly what this is
and who this is.
Don't do that.
That's black people.
This ain't nothing but niggas.
All right.
Where's that girlfriend me at now?
Is it doing well?
3,500.
Ain't bad.
She getting there.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are 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.
Big Boss Ray.
Big Boss Ray.
I'm back.
What's up, guys?
Coming in here looking all fly in the morning.
Well, thank you.
I'm a little hot.
I'm not going to lie.
You hot?
Yeah, but if I take this off, my nipples will show, I was told.
Well, that's what five years, $300 million look like.
She got that NBA Mac deal, baby.
Come on, give her your no rattle.
Give her your flowers.
Thank you.
We tried to do the Issa Rae, but the S deflated.
No!
Why did I miss this?
We just take it.
What did you think this was?
Y'all be having hella stuff in here.
It's true.
That's your name.
Unfortunately, it says Issa Rae.
No, one of the S's wasn't blown up.
They're deflated.
Okay, that's okay.
I'll take what I can get.
But we got food and we got champagne and Prosecco.
Give me some.
Daniel!
We wanted to give you your flowers.
We appreciate your work.
Thank you.
And that's your flowers.
That's Asa Spade, right?
And my flowers.
Do you realize the impact you have on black people,
but especially young black women?
I mean, I try not to think about all that,
but people have been really generous about saying
how the show might have influenced them,
how it might have made them feel like they could do it,
and that's special to me.
We've been doing this show for 11 years,
and I've never seen a lot of black women here as excited for you coming today.
Those three women out there work on my TV show,
Rachel, Brie, and Leilani,
and they were all super excited to see you.
Not even that.
Taylor.
Taylor, my best friend.
I was like, who's your best friend?
I never met her.
She was like, Issa Rae.
I'm like, get out, get out, get out.
Nyla, who works up here, she got her makeup done.
Yo.
Put on a fresh shirt, all because you were coming. A fresh shirt. That's love. Get out. Get out. Nyla, who works up here, she got her makeup done. Yo. Put on a fresh shirt.
All because you would come here.
That's love.
Thank you.
Is it surreal, though, seeing the impact?
Hell yeah, it's surreal.
I don't think it really hit me until we announced that the show was going to be ending.
And then it was just like all the love.
It made me emotional.
And when I think about, you know, I've talked about it a million times before, the shows
from the 90s and the impact that they had on me, I hope that, you know, I've talked about it a million times before the shows from the 90s and the impact that they had on me
I hope that you know will have an impact on the next generation in the same way where they cherish it with their own memory
Well, let's get to this. Why do you why'd you decide to kill off Lawrence this season?
You know at this time. I'm like, Lauren's five. Just because he had a new baby on his cell? I mean,
this baby's gotta die.
That's just my motto.
She's got to die.
Outside, baby.
Let's just take that quote and take it out of context.
These are racist people.
Baby's gotta die.
Oh, no, no.
Oh, I'm gonna die.
Show up, bud.
Okay.
So for people that don't know,
why are you ending Insecure?
I mean,
since season one,
I knew that I wanted to have five seasons.
And I talked to Prentice about it.
He was like, how long you want to go?
And I was like, five.
And he was like, okay, sounds about right.
But it felt like that's the amount of time to tell a concise story.
I like shows that I can watch with endings.
And I like to leave when I feel...
At your high.
Yeah.
Like, don't overstay your welcome is the big motto.
And also just like
I've been saying professionally, it's one
thing to be a part of
a show that you love.
But like asking people to give five
years, actors, writers, whatever it
is of their life to a show
felt like, you know, it feels like a lot.
If you did six or seven, I don't think they would complain.
I don't know, man. I feel like
it ended at the right time. We all still love each other.
People get other opportunities.
So I feel like that was also
just timeline-wise good.
What about the Insecure movie? Is that a possibility?
You got to see this.
We just got to see this.
Let's just skip over that.
No, not even. I just don't want
to do a movie. What do you need a movie for?
Like, we did it for five years.
And I don't get hype about movies.
I like the Sex and the City movie, but any other show movie, I've never been like, yes!
Woo!
My girlfriend's had a movie.
We'd get hype.
I mean, yeah, sure.
I know you'd get hype.
I love my girlfriends as it is.
But actually, to your point, so that they could feel like, because the strike f***ed everything up.
Yes, there's no closure.
Right, they didn't have, but you are having closure on this.
We're having closure, but yes, I actually,
I can see that because they don't have the same closure.
Now let's get to some real topics from the last season,
because we got a flashback.
So you and Molly may or may not be friends again, right?
Are there things, because sometimes friendships go through ups and downs
that are unforgivable while, say, somebody you've been friends with as long as you've been friends with Molly.
Are there things that she can do that you can say, I can't ever forgive that?
Yeah. I mean, I'm big on like betrayal.
If there is to the other point, if a friend of mine like I've never even thought about entertaining anybody that my friends have dated, you know.
So that is a big thing.
I don't get my same pond.
Even in the industry?
Isn't that kind of hard in the industry, though?
I don't really have industry issues like that,
but I understand.
I feel like men are more also open to dating the same.
That's weird, right?
It's weird.
No, it's weird.
Y'all be overlapping.
I've seen it.
We were just talking about that last week,
and I'm like, oh, damn.
They just be passing it.
I'm not commenting.
She just had a party with Diddy. Relax,
she ain't got nothing to do with that.
Okay.
Envy a snitch, man.
Envy will drop a dime in a heartbeat.
Anybody else you want to name that we don't know about?
It should continue.
What about if she's
posting subliminals about you on
social media while y'all are going through your riff?
That's childish, but I feel like if we can come back from it, but it's childish.
What if she tells your business to people?
That's what kind of business, you know, because I've had that happen.
You know, I have friends that have loose lips, but, you know, it depends on what you're telling.
Right.
Like, you know, Issa got some.
She had gonorrhea.
That's you got to go. It's like, why are you? Why are you loose lipped about that? Andum, she had gonorrhea. That's f***ed up. That's f***ed up.
You got to go.
It's like, why are you loose-lipped about that?
And I don't have gonorrhea.
It goes away.
Oh, does it?
Okay.
Are you sad about the final season of Insecure?
Have you thought about it?
Because I saw you do Insecure Fest the other day,
so y'all had to watch, like, all the seasons.
Oh, yeah.
We're doing, so In so insecure fest is actually this Sunday
we did like a watch party catch it okay and that was really fun and that that
made me nostalgic that made me like proud of what we had done it made me
look back on some stuff like god dang but it was in general like you know it
was special but I'm not sad I feel like it's fun really yeah I'm excited if
anything I mean and I'm excited that people are excited about the
end of the show right now.
Because I know they're going to be mad later.
How is rap-ish framing up?
It's going really well.
I'm in Miami right now, just
making the show. But it's going to be
very different. And it's like an
all-new cast, for the most part. And they're
killing it. What's your mind frame when you do something
new? Do you try to beat Insecure? Like, I gotta beat these numbers. I gotta beat this record. it what's your mind frame when you do something new do you try to beat insecure but like i gotta beat these numbers i gotta beat this record is that
what your your mind frame is no because i'll kill myself my mind frame is like i want it to be
different like there are a couple scenes that you know i picked out where i was like i don't want
people to think about insecure like i want it to stand on its own and be its own body of work
but the comparisons are going to be inevitable you know but i'm hype about it is there
a soundtrack for your label that's going to go along with rap yes absolutely like i said that's
why i'm excited about it too because it's set in the music world um it's really music centered
so absolutely going to get a soundtrack the the music is already great you're a lightweight rapper
yourself uh not after watching this i'm'm like, I'm never rapping again.
Do people walk up to you and rap to you in the street randomly?
Yo, that just happened to me in Miami last week.
And this dude was like, don't make me like, I'll rap alongside you.
And I thought he was trying to get signed.
And I'm like, you're a rapper?
He was like, oh, no.
I was just, I was just bidding.
How do you feel about that when they do it?
I mean, it's a little awkward.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do, but I vibe with it.
If it's good, I'll vibe with it. But I can't do anything for you, you know? Yeah. Nyla and Brie, don't do it? I mean, it's a little awkward. I don't know what I'm supposed to do, but I vibe with it. If it's good, I vibe with it,
but I can't do anything for you, you know?
Nyla and Brie, don't do it.
Don't do it.
They was plotting on it earlier.
They was like, y'all got to just wrap up and
practice it in the mirror for Easter. Don't do it.
Alright? Keep it cool. It's a little awkward,
but, you know, I'll receive it.
They got to do that to y'all too, right?
I'm sure people
all the time
has anyone been good
like
no
you're a liar
okay I have one situation
tell them the two people
that you could've had
probably back in the day
um
they played me J. Cole
early on
oh
when he was in St. John's
early early on
did you actually listen to it
a little bit
Bryson Tiller
and Bryson Tiller
those two
for J. Cole what was your response?
You know what?
It was early on.
This was when he was in college.
My manager and his wife are related cousins.
They played it early on.
I just didn't get it yet.
I didn't think he was there yet.
And he's lying.
And he said he's broke.
No, I didn't say that.
But I'm like, he's in college.
I didn't say that at all.
He's on the come up. Give him a chance. I just didn't think he was there yet. And then Bryson Tiller, I just't say that. But I'm like, he's in college. I didn't say that at all. He's on the come up.
Give him a chance.
I just didn't think he was there yet.
And then Bryson Till, I just didn't hear.
And are you fans of both?
Yes, absolutely.
All right, we got more with Issa Rae.
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 Issa Rae.
You got married during the pandemic.
How has that been, marriage in a pandemic?
On top of each other all the time?
On top of each other?
Well, not like that, not literally, but you know.
I mean, I'm happy.
I'm good.
You know, like we went to France and my friends just happened to be there.
I was just doing a photo shoot and you know, the celebration happened.
It's amazing to me that you grew up in a generation
of oversharers, but you don't
overshare like folks from that
generation. I respect that about you
so much. Like, how did you avoid being
an overshare in the social media era?
I think I did overshare in the beginning when it was
just your friends, you know?
On Facebook, you know,
even early Twitter days, I remember, like,
I was a stupid person
at my job
tweeting about
how much I hated my job.
You were one of those.
I was one of those
at 25, 26.
We had to fire somebody
once for that.
Well, not here,
but at my old job.
And I was like,
I done made fun of people
for doing that.
And I was like,
looking at my old tweets
and I was like,
what the f***?
Did I really do this
while working there?
What was you working at?
I don't want to say.
Because there's still no...
No, I should have been grateful to have that job, to be honest.
But yeah, I mean, I only really stopped when I realized, oh my gosh, I'm getting more attention.
And I always say, like, I did post, you know, my significant other one time, like a vague picture.
And one time, these girls who I didn't know i saw in the comment
they just wrote something like benign like see i told you and i was like oh i don't know what
they're talking about i don't know i was like i don't know what this they're talking about
something that i don't have control over and i don't like that feeling and also i'm a like i
be nosy i know it's like to be nosy. So I don't want that for me.
Does he ever get insecure?
You don't love me.
You don't be posting me on your gram.
She probably would not marry somebody
who felt like that.
I just want to know why you waited
to get all this money to not floss.
You was flossing before?
I was flossing before?
No, I'm saying you said you used to overshare.
Oh, I mean.
Show us what that $300 million look like.
What is this number?
What is this number?
He's a bird.
He's a bird.
I just respect it.
I respect where Issa has come from and what she's doing.
That's all.
This NBA number.
You denied it, though, when it first came out.
The actual number was five-year, $40 million.
I saw you shoot that down
immediately.
Yes, I did.
Why?
Because it's incorrect.
It was bigger.
It was the 300
like I'm talking about.
All right, all right.
It was just incorrect.
But, you know, I'm proud.
I feel like, you know,
I worked hard.
I was lightweight
insulted at that number.
Like, for five years
you think I'm going
to give my shit up
for that number?
But I'm blessed and we're getting to work.
Did the bundles get better after that deal?
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Stupid.
You're the worst.
But did they though?
Yeah.
I mean,
of course they did.
Word,
word,
word,
word.
That's it.
That's your interest.
I'd like to know.
I'd like to know how people spend in a little bit,
you know?
I mean,
I,
I splurge off.
I really only splurge on food. There's not
much to floss with me. Food
and then... Yacht s***, you be saying?
Yacht s***. Parties. Yes, yes. I love parties.
You have very nice clothes. I do, but I get to return
them. To be honest, if I'm being
100% transparent, like, my
only splurge is, you get a lot of free s***, y'all know
that. But they're like promo
stuff, mostly. A lot of times
you get free stuff, but it's not like what you
would buy. It's true.
Does your team expect you to get the bill when y'all go out?
Because I would never disrespect you and you know try to
pay for something when I'm with you.
No you're a man so you got to.
I saw you've been doing it longer so
like I go by that. Really?
You would have to pay. Charlamagne goes by
who makes more money. And he makes more money.
No I'm doing okay.
All right, come on.
You've been doing it
a long ass time.
But no, my team,
I wish they would
make me pick up the bill.
Absolutely not.
Just take it out of the check.
Hello, exactly.
Now, what did the pandemic teach you?
What did you learn
about Issa Rae
during the pandemic?
I learned that
I'm more restless
than I thought I was.
That I can be a saboteur.
What?
What is that?
Charlamagne has restless anal syndrome, and we were talking about it, and then you said
that we're restless.
Restless anal syndrome?
Yeah, where his anal is just stuck, and he needs things to do.
Wait, what?
He said, don't listen to these people.
These people are insane.
They're insane.
Don't listen to them this morning. They drinking already this morning. Don't listen to these people. These people are insane. They're insane. Don't listen to them this morning.
They drinking already this morning.
Don't listen to them.
What is the...
Angeli reported on that.
I don't even know it.
What is it?
It's a side effect of COVID or something.
You have to poop, but then even after you go,
you still have to keep on going.
And it just, the feeling doesn't go away.
I hate how y'all interrupted such a nice, deep answer
that Issa was trying to get to.
You know what I mean?
It was your fault.
They talk about restless anuses.
This is why this show is the way
the show is. Back to the restlessness you
experienced during the pandemic.
I should be like, that's beautiful. That one word
set her off. You said restless.
I'm serious. You said restless.
Because I looked at you. I'm like, here go you.
Here she go. I know she coming.
I know she coming.
Yeah, I mean, I'm restless.
But I really, really, really, really
appreciated the pandemic. It made me also realize like, I'm restless And But I really really Really really Appreciated the pandemic
It made me also realize
Like I'm sure
A lot of us
I need a rest
I needed to just
Chill
And I'm at my best
When I get to have time
To be creative
As opposed to
Like I wrote
F***ing rap s***
During the pandemic
And then you know
It got picked up
And that was a different thing
But I wouldn't have had time
Right
If I didn't have that break
Were you supposed to get married In 2020? I think I read that somewhere and then did you read it
kind of um I was supposed to yeah the photo shoot got um postponed now was there any consideration
to do an hour this season per episode no we are a half comedy. It is in the description of the show that HBO bought.
You can change it.
No, we can't.
We literally can't.
Sometimes we, like, will submit episodes for HBO's approval that are, like, 33 minutes,
and they'll be like, get it down to 28, 30 seconds.
Like, that's it.
So it's out of our hands.
Did you have any pressure writing this season?
Because you know it's the last season.
You know social media is very engaged with Insecure.
My God, yes.
I mean, there was a lot of pressure.
I think with one through four,
we were really good about shutting all that out.
But the weird thing about four was
we were in the writer's room while the show was airing.
And so we got to see reactions in real time.
And that was interesting.
And then, yeah, it just adds the extra pressure
when people tell you the show means something to them.
When I think about other shows that have ended and they messed it up you know like that that weighs on my shoulders but
you know we got freed later when one of our writers was like we keep acting like we're ending
the show and these characters lives aren't ending like they're still gonna live on after this so
let's let's treat it like we're gonna write a season six and that
really changed the game so it's open-ended don't leave us with something open you already killed
laurence so you can't continue on after season five without laurence i mean anything can happen
like a spinoff just die every day b
um yeah maybe i love that you have killed Lauren's up.
Why you kill her off? I saw the script.
You saw the script and Lauren's died?
He keeps on telling people on the air that somebody died
and this season they're insecure.
Yo, I saw that that spoiler happened and I'm like,
where did this come from?
We've never had any spoilers.
People really believe that.
Lauren's dead.
I would be freaking out if a real spoiler leaked.
So that's not real?
That's not a real spoiler.
Do you care about awards
since you're so impactful
for the culture?
Do the awards matter to you?
The awards don't matter.
Winning awards don't matter,
but getting nominated
really puts your show on a map.
But people on the squad
definitely have feelings about it.
Ask Princess Penny that question
and he's like,
we should have got every award.
And yeah, I love how he rides for it.
Is it a real black renaissance in Hollywood or is it just like performative?
I'm seeing behind the scenes a lot of changes. Like it is hard to hire an exec right now.
It is hard because they're getting swooped up for stupid money.
So I can't afford some of the execs that I want.
And in that way, like I've always talked about when black people are in positions of power, hopefully things
will change, and we'll see
if that's true, because a lot of them are in positions
of power right now. Alright, we got more with
Issa Rae. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast
Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with Issa Rae.
Charlamagne?
I know it's just acting, but did you ever find yourself still in character not liking Yvonne last season?
If I were you, you'd know how mad I was at her.
And she was really, like, she's like, Angela, it's a character.
Just relax.
I have never been mad at Yvonne.
Even after?
Like, you didn't have to just, like, move some?
No.
In fact, my real best friend, who is based off of, she even hit me up.
And she was like, girl, are we cool?
Like, because everybody coming for Molly, okay, coming for me.
And I was like, no, it's just a show.
This is not, like, the character isn't you anymore.
But Yvonne played the shit out of that role.
Yes, she did.
That's why we don't like her.
I think that, I think on a high key level, it really affected her.
Like her feelings were hurt because people turned on her so quickly from the first episode.
We were trying to build to it.
I'm going to be nicer to her.
Please do.
Please do.
I always wanted to know when you grew up in Maryland and then you moved to L.A. How was that shell shock from Maryland to the West Coast?
Because you said it was like an all-white school at first,
predominantly white to black in L.A.
How was that?
Yeah, I mean, I was born in L.A.
We lived in Senegal, which was like an African experience
that I had never had.
And then we went to Maryland, and that was a culture shock, too,
of just being around.
They said you were playing hockey.
I was not playing hockey. You played hockey? That of just being around. They said you were playing hockey. I was not playing hockey.
You played hockey?
That's what I read.
They said street hockey and swimming.
Street hockey.
How about you play street hockey?
No, I didn't.
That's wild.
That's so interesting.
But no, I was swimming for sure.
I played soccer.
Then I moved back to L.A.
And yeah, that was a culture shock.
And I was just, you know, candidly, a little shock and I was just you know candidly a little bit
lame and you know the kids there just didn't
f*** with me. Cause you were the white black girl
I hate that
I hate when people say the white black girl I mean they're not you but I just
hate when people say that. But I was also
lame like I was also just really
What does that mean though? What does lame mean?
I was just too eager you know I was just
pressed to make friends I liked being the class clowns
and my jokes just weren't hitting the same and then you know i moved to a private school uh and then
i was just i realized that i've been since that private school experience i've actually been in a
black bubble for a very long time until even insecure and having to work in black spaces
because even at the private school there was a group, but my mom was still like... It makes it look like you're quarantining from white people.
I mean, I guess.
I guess.
But my mom was just like, at that private school,
she was like, mm-mm, you still too white.
Like, I don't like this environment.
You're too white.
You're still playing hockey.
We don't like that.
Jesus Christ.
So she was like, so then she moved me to a high school
that was on the border of Compton and Watts. Shout out to King Drew. Goodness gracious, that was a shell shot. But I mean, it was like, so then she moved me to a high school that was on the border of Compton and Watts.
Shout out to King Drew.
Goodness gracious, that was a shell shock.
But I mean, it was amazing because it was kids that wanted to be doctors.
So from all over, it was a magnet school.
So it was people from Compton, Watts, from View Park, like I came from.
But we all worked at Killer King Hospital, you know, and I thought I wanted to be a doctor.
And working at that hospital, working in triage, seeing, you know, the ER room, seeing people in pain.
I was like, oh, I don't want to do this.
And then, you know, after school, I was African-American studies major.
And then after school, I was working in an African-American museum, public theater, all those things.
So it was just like, oh, I had only immersed myself into this weird bubble and then insecure happened.
And then we were meeting with like,
you know,
other writers and I expanded my horizons,
but in the writers and I realized,
Oh,
I've only had this experience.
Well,
I want all my daughters to be lame then.
I'm serious.
You know,
but that is the thing.
My daughter was,
you know,
she grew up the same way.
Absolutely.
Mine too.
But now that she's in college,
she kind of,
she's almost in that black bubble.
Like she's that. So it was like, it was a shell shot, but where did she go in college, she's almost in that black bubble. Like, she's that.
So it was like it was a shell shot.
Where does she go?
She goes to NYU now.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I mean, that's where I wanted to go to.
But one thing you're intentional about is ownership, right,
when it comes to being in your neighborhood in L.A.
Big boss, Ray.
And that's it.
And, you know, being at Englewood and all of that, that's important.
Real estate, Ray.
I see a lot of moves.
I'm going to take that, though's important. Real estate rain. I see a lot of moves. I'm going to take that though.
I like real estate rain.
I like that.
But I do see all the moves that you're making there.
So can you tell us some of the things that you have going on?
Yeah.
I mean, I am into the South LA is going through heavy gentrification
and that is killing me.
And I really just want to prioritize black residences in the community.
I want to create pipelines.
I want to showcase back black businesses.
I want the South LA Crenshaw area to be the black version of what Koreatown is.
Like I want to be able to have everything feeding into one another.
And that's like the grand vision.
I'm nowhere near that yet, but I am, you know, buying different properties to expand my multi-units single i haven't yet my dad
is just like that's where it's at and i was like i haven't because then you have to be a landlord
property manager to do a property management stuff that's extra that'll be down the line
hopefully because i do want to just have affordable housing but yeah it's just it's a long-term plan
and i'm learning so much.
I have so much to learn.
No, that's dope.
I never understood why we never did that.
You see Italian town in New York.
You see Koreatown.
It's not Italian town.
It's called Little Italy.
It's Italian town.
It's Italian town.
It's Italian town.
Everybody has their own places.
It's the truth.
Y'all are so immature.
They are.
Why y'all can't let him have that?
They are.
It's true.
It's not a family.
Everybody has an old area but us.
They're old.
We made up our own neighborhood.
Jesus Christ.
I hate them.
I hate them so much.
As you should.
As you should.
This is my last day.
It's not even that far off.
That sounded a lot like Nip, though.
That's what Nip was trying to do.
Yeah, and I have so much respect for what he was doing.
And I observed that.
That was aspirational to me.
It was inspiring.
What was the whole thing?
Nip was quashing beef?
You had a beef?
You and Lauren or something like that?
No, I think this got blown out of proportion.
I'm not getting into it.
Me and Lauren are great. The swimmer had beef? The swimmer blown out of proportion. I'm not getting into it. Me and Lauren are great.
We're cool.
The swimmer had beef?
The swimmer, first of all.
Yes.
But no.
Cheap out of dick.
I'm blood.
Don't play with me.
All right?
You almost threw your sets up, East.
We saw you.
Was this in Little Italy?
It was in Italy.
Italian town.
Italian town.
We're great.
I love Lloyd.
They were all my heart.
There was a misunderstanding.
And yeah.
Did you and Nip ever talk about doing something real estate-wise?
No, we never got a chance to.
My first time talking to him was at one of Diddy's birthday parties,
right before he passed.
And that was my first time getting to meet him.
But I had seen what he was doing, and I wanted to. time getting to meet meet him but i had been i'd seen what he was doing
and i wanted to like i wanted to reach out and we were actually i do a series called a sip and he
was gonna be the guest right before he passed so still like want to make his legacy proud and
seeing the impact that he's had you know in my area and love him you know Issa really is one of the realest though and the reason
I say that is like we're airing this on uh it's a 10 20 10 21 okay and that date means something
to me because it's uh my good friend Jasmine Waters Jasmine Waters Jazz Flies born day and
I say Issa is the realest for a lot of reasons but I want to tell this story because when Jazz
was still here on this planet you pulled up on her one day and poured into her in a way that impacted her so much.
And that conversation gave her so much hope and so much optimism.
And I respect that so much because the true measure of a person is how they treat someone who can't do anything for them.
So I read I've I've told you that before, but I wanted to say that publicly because that's the type of person you are.
Jazz was amazing. And, you you know rest in peace to her but it's also like she poured love into me when I didn't have
you know anything and she just invited me to her house to kick it and I liked her and it was just
like I've never got a chance to sit with you and get to know you and that was so fulfilling to me
and I wish you know I wish I had known but uh well you made her day that day
that is a fact yeah and I love the fact that like you like he just said there's things that you've
done for people that you didn't have to and that you didn't benefit from like even when I ran into
you and you were like I'm gonna do lip service um what and then like I really I was like oh word I
was like all right I really followed up and you really did it but that was a big deal for me
because I would never even think in my head, all right, Issa Rae about to
do lip service. I wouldn't even have thought
to even ask. But it meant
a lot to me, especially during the pandemic.
Man, that's all it is.
We got food for you, too, Issa, if you want to eat.
Oh, yeah, they got all kinds of things. She got a long day.
We got cake for you. Why are y'all amazing?
Because we want to celebrate you, Big Boss
Rae, Real Estate Rae, Income
Issa. Okay?
She just won a Drifted Champion. $5,700 million contract.
Why is that not to be celebrated?
Speaking into existence.
He's a bird, boy.
I appreciate it.
Cheers.
