Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

You're all confused, huh?
As you can tell, the days are a blur.
I can see.
I don't even know what the days are anymore.
I judge days now based off what my daughter has to do today,
based off what practice she has and things of that nature.
That means you're getting old because I do the same.
Hey, man, getting old.
I'm there.
You're there already?
Yes, sir.
Well, yesterday I got my massage.
Of course, I go to Elements, which is like a massage
envy. I go once a month, once
every three weeks. Why? You don't like massaging
because you're naming the title
of the place? No, just Elements is closer to my
crib. Oh, okay. So I get a two-hour massage
every three weeks, and it's amazing. It's not
that expensive, but I turn my phone
off, and I don't hear what's going on. So
from 4 o'clock yesterday to this
morning, I had no idea what was going on in social
media, what was going on in the news
and it feels so great. Hey, you need that sometime
man. Did you get an erection though while you were getting your
massage? Um, no. Not
this time. I actually fell asleep and I'm nervous
that when I fall asleep in a massage parlor that
I don't fart.
Oh, I personally feel like when you're
getting a massage, if you don't get an erection, it's
not really a good massage. That's what I think. Not when you're getting a massage, if you don't get an erection, it's not really a good massage.
That's what I think.
Not even like, not a full-blown, but just a semi.
A little erection?
That's all.
It's a little.
Yeah, but the only problem is that, you know, when I wake up in the morning, I hear all these things that's going on with Starbucks and the IRS and airplanes, engines exploding.
And then it just makes me nervous again.
Back to reality, man.
It happens.
Like, I mean,
because that's what
the massage does.
The massage probably
helps with your anxiety.
You know what I mean?
It helps to ease
whatever you're going through
but then you got to
plug right back in
as soon as you're done.
Yeah.
And I'm drinking
green tea right now
and it's not from Starbucks.
I just want y'all to know that.
All right.
Well, we got to talk
about Starbucks also.
We got to talk about
this plane.
The engine exploded.
It opened the plane up
and a lady almost got sucked out.
I'll give you all the details when we come back.
And Meek Mill's lawyer will be joining us.
His name is Joe Tacopina.
He's going to explain everything that's going on, all your questions,
why Meek can't get partied and get out, and what's going on with this judge.
Joe Tacopino?
Can I order that at Chipotle?
You might be able to order that.
So we'll talk to him this morning as well.
Let's get the show cracking.
Front page news is next.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get into some front page news.
Lots to talk about, so let's go through them kind of fast.
NBA scores last night.
The Raptors beat the Wizards 131-19.
The Celtics beat the Bucks 120-106.
New Orleans Pelicans beat the Trailblazers
111-102.
Now, the IRS, they are
giving taxpayers an extra day. There was
a computer glitch yesterday, and because of the computer glitch,
they F'd up, and because of that
F up, they're going to give you an extra day to get
your taxes in. So, get your taxes in.
I need an extra few months. I need an extra few months,
IRS. Y'all already know how I do.
You already know
I'll be asking for that extension.
I just finished my 2016 taxes.
Okay.
I just started on 2017.
I'm sorry.
You know what's funny?
I just did my 2017,
no,
2016 taxes
about two weeks ago.
I just,
when I tell you,
I just sent the packet back
for my 2016 taxes yesterday.
So,
I'm just starting on 2017.
All right.
It happens.
Okay.
Now,
this is going to mess me up
when I fly from now on.
Now, a Southwest flight leaving LaGuardia was flying, and the engine exploded.
When the engine exploded, it actually hit the window and opened the window and plane up.
Oh, my God.
Well, it's like a movie, so you know what happens when an actual plane opens up.
No, don't tell me.
No, because I ain't hit it.
The oxygen masks fall. Nope.
And now people have trouble breathing because now it's the outside air and inside air.
And people and things start getting sucked off the plane.
That ain't real.
So a woman was almost sucked off the plane.
I'm just imagining her legs hanging out the plane.
And now the passengers are actually holding her so she doesn't fly out the plane.
They're in the air?
They're in the air.
Now, the lady didn't fly out the plane, but
tragically, she did die. She had
two kids, and it's such a sad situation
and such a sad story.
The pilot, he was a
Navy ace, and he was able
to land a plane in Philly.
Seven people were treated for injuries, but like I said,
one person died. Now, I got
so many questions. Was she wearing a seatbelt?
I don't know. The only reason I'm asking was she wearing a seatbelt because I don't know if she was wearing a seatbelt. And the only reason I'm asking was she wearing a
seatbelt because it seems like she was the only person that
was sucked out at the time. So I wonder if she
was wearing a seatbelt. Maybe she was the only person
close to that window when it exploded, though.
I just need to know. I need to know fine
details because, like, I have
anxiety. I hear things like
that, and then I think that it's going to happen,
you know, when I'm on the plane. So I need to know all
the preventive measures that I can take in order for that not to happen.
I don't think you can take any measures.
I mean, you wear your seatbelt, but if an engine explodes, this is the first tragedy or anything like this,
I think, in nine years in the airplane business.
But if something happens like that, I don't think you can prepare.
Her family about to get paid, too, by the way.
I'm sure they prefer her mom.
I know. Listen, of course, you want that life back,
but her family is about to get paid. And furthermore,
you said Southwest, right? Yes.
I don't fly Southwest. The reason I don't fly
Southwest is because I'm too indecisive. So when you
walk on Southwest, they tell you that you can pick your own
seat. I ain't got time for that. You know what I'm saying?
I flew Southwest one time
and that's because you actually put me on
a Southwest flight. I ain't never booked on a Southwest flight.
Yes, you did. We had a show in Charlotte, and Charlamagne booked the flights.
Ain't nobody ever did that.
You put me on a Southwest.
I don't even know how Southwest worked.
You get there first.
It's first come, first serve.
I was like, what you mean?
I was like, you pick a seat?
He was like, yeah, any seat you want.
I'm like, this is weird.
I've been JetBlue strong for about six years now.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You definitely put me on it.
I don't know nothing about no goddamn Southwest.
Southwest is a bus in the sky.
And lastly, Starbucks. I don't know what about no goddamn Southwest. Southwest is a bus in the sky. And lastly, Starbucks.
I don't know what the hell is going on with Starbucks, man,
but Starbucks, another incident of racism popped up yesterday.
This was a young man, a black man,
who went to Starbucks to use the bathroom,
and he denied him the right to use the bathroom.
A white boy came out the bathroom, and he asked the white boy,
hey, did you buy anything?
And the white boy was like, no, I didn't buy anything.
I just asked the manager, and he gave me the code and allowed
me to use the bathroom. And we actually have audio because he secretly taped it.
How you doing, bro?
Western.
Western. Nice to meet you. Have you purchased anything in here, sir?
Uh, no, but I was just about to go.
You about to go purchase something?
Yeah.
Oh, okay. Okay. So, but before you made a purchase, they let you use the restroom, right?
I asked for the code.
You asked for the code and they just gave it to you, right?
Before you made a purchase?
Yeah.
Okay, all right. Come on, let's go.
So as you can hear, the white boy who used the bathroom didn't purchase anything.
He just asked for the code and got the code and got the access.
When the black kid did the same thing, he didn't.
So what he did was he walked to the counter with the white guy and said,
okay, well, this is the situation and this is what happened from there.
This is Weston.
This man right here said he hasn't made,
he said he hasn't made a purchase yet.
He's in line to make a purchase,
and you guys haven't, you guys,
you guys gave him the code, right?
Is that what you did?
No, this is not your business.
This is not your business.
This is not your business, though.
Okay, you may be a store manager,
but you're not in charge.
I'm not allowed to be in here anymore.
Why are you upset with me, Weston?
What did I do?
I just tried to use the bathroom like you did.
See, he should have let the white guy talk.
You know what I'm saying?
When you're in Starbucks with white people, you got to use their white privilege the way you use the free Wi-Fi.
Okay, let the white person complain about what just happened.
Well, Starbucks is going to close 8,000 U.S. stores May 29th for racial bias training.
I'm going to be honest with you.
If you got to close 8,000 stores for racial bias training, you might as well throw the whole business away.
Okay, I feel like that's something that should happen before you even get the job.
Don't you think?
Yeah, absolutely.
You got to close the stores in the middle of a business, 8,000 stores for racial bias training. Might as well just throw the whole business away, absolutely. You got to close the stores in the middle of a business, 8000 stores for racial bias training.
Might as well just throw the whole business away, man.
And I'm going to be honest with you.
If I was that black dude in that thing, that Starbucks, I wasn't about to argue with that lady.
I was going to tell her what they just did.
And then I was going to say to her, you fronted on me because I'm black, huh?
And that's it.
You know what I mean?
You got to drop that black card early and often.
I did that the other day when I had a reservation at a restaurant and we got there.
And it was a bunch of us.
And all of a sudden, they didn't have seats for us, even though we had the reservation for the proper number of people.
So I immediately said, why?
Is it because we black?
Because we black.
Boy, as soon as you drop that card, the manager comes out.
No, no.
We'll have you set up right away.
And you end up getting free drinks and dessert.
Absolutely.
All right.
Well, before we get about it, I just want to play the 911 call.
You don't got to do that.
From the young men.
Why?
This is from the young men in Philly.
Now, if you don't know, of course, Starbucks is catching all this heat from Philly
where they ask these kids to leave.
And people were saying, well, who's the manager?
Well, this is the 911 call, the manager calling the police about the young boys in Philly.
Hi, I have two gentlemen at my cafe that are refusing to make a purchase or leave.
I'm at the Starbucks at 18th and Spruce.
My place will be on the scene if possible.
Thank you.
Who calls the police for that?
That's the nicest 911 call I've ever heard in my life.
That don't sound like an emergency at all.
You are stupid.
We got to stop abusing 911.
You got to be like another number for lesser emergencies, like 611 or something under 9, 711.
All right.
All right.
That's front page news.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
Vent with us.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Wake up.
Wake up.
Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Say it. Say it with your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who this?
Hey, peace and blessings, guys.
What's going on, man?
Port-A-Potty guy.
What's up, man?
Get it off your chest.
My name is Sean Stone, DJ Envy.
How are you guys doing, man?
What's up, man?
What's up, Sean?
How are you, sir?
I'm blessed, man.
You know, I went to bed at 3 in the morning, and I'm up at 6 a.m., man.
Yo, I'm feeling it right now, bro.
So you called me to tell me you're tired?
Nah, I just came to spread some positive energy to the world, man.
Let people know it doesn't matter what time you went to bed, man.
If you got to hustle and grind, you got to hustle and grind.
You said you're going to Starbucks, bro?
Come on now. Why?
I'm about to go get some coffee.
Don't be a sucker, Sean. Go to Dunkin' Donuts. Yeah, go to Dunkin' Donuts. Why do I got to go to grind. You said you're going to Starbucks, bro? Come on now. Why? I'm about to go get some coffee. Don't be a sucker, Sean.
Go to Dunkin' Donuts.
Yeah, go to Dunkin' Donuts.
Why do I got to go to Dunkin' Donuts, man?
You see how Starbucks is treating our people.
Exactly.
I need a lawsuit, man.
Listen, when you go to Starbucks, tell them, when they ask you what your name is, put sellout.
Tell them write sellout on your cup.
Okay?
Pretty much.
Tell them write sellout on your cup.
Hello, who's this?
What's up?
This is A-Team Supreme.
What's up, bro? Get it off your chest.
First of all, I think
instead of boycotting Starbucks, I think
everybody should meet everybody they
know at the nearest Starbucks and not buy
nothing and just sit up in there and use the free
Wi-Fi. Second of all,
I've been in a place
where I wasn't supposed to be
and I had the police called on me
and the police came
and they was like,
oh, I want you
to arrest this man.
The police was like,
I'm sorry,
we can't arrest him.
We can just ask him to leave.
That's it.
So you was at your
baby mama house.
Why your baby mama
call the police on you?
I wasn't at my baby mom house,
but you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, they just was like,
if he come back,
then that's the only time we can arrest him.
But we can just ask him to leave.
That's it.
All right.
Thank you for calling.
All right.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051 if you need to vent.
Hit us up right now.
It's The Breakfast Club.

So if you got something on your mind, let it out.
Hello, who's this?
Yeah, man, what's up? It's Chief.
Chief, get it off your chest, bro.
Yeah, man, my homie Steph tried to give me some money
and told me I had to pay him back, but it was fake.
He gave you fake keys?
I don't even know what to do. Is Charlemagne there?
I'm right here, my brother. What's happening?
Hey, can I get him donkey of the day, man?
Go ahead, my brother.
Yeah, man, I want to get donkey of the day to step.
Man, you know that was messed up, though.
They ain't gave you fake cash?
Let me tell you something.
If you go to the bank with that fake cash, the bank going to take that money.
You're not going to get it back.
I'm not going to tell you what to do.
But one time that happened to me, and a taxi cab driver had to get that because I wasn't going to lose on it.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
But in Minnesota, we can't really hop in them cabs.
They don't really come to our area.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Why don't you just tell on the dude for having counterfeit money?
He'll go to jail.
Man, okay, what?
I ain't like that, man.
That's my boy.
He ain't your boy if he's giving you fake cash.
Snitch on his ass.
Oh, man, Charlemagne, come on, man.

You don't want to get in trouble, man.
Don't give it to nobody.
Just let it go.

I would probably buy some drinks with it.
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Thank you for calling.
Yeah, Yee's out of town, by the way.
Why you turn your elbow all of a sudden?
I don't know.
That was my Yee voice.

I just got to drop it at the same time, though.

That's good.
That's a good feeling.
Yeah, J. Cole comes out Friday.
Drake don't come out until June.

Just a little bit.
Follow Reckless TV on Instagram.
R-E-C-K-L-E-C-Z-T-V.
All right, brother.
Appreciate it.
Did you say something about Post Malone?
Yeah, Post Malone got an album coming out.
Nobody cares.
I don't care about his mayonnaise music.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, man, this is Rock from Atlanta, man.
What's up, Enrique Chalamet?
What's going on, fella?
What's up, bro?
What's happening?
Get it off your chest.
Hey, man, yeah, I just want to talk about the Starbucks situation, man.
You know, the way things are happening, and it's just not that.
It's everything that's going on in society right now with black folk it seems like we ain't putting up a united front and
standing together when situations happen to us it seemed like every time something happened whether
it be from police brutality shootings or whatever that's going on with the racial profiling in
today's society it seemed like we would talk about it a little bit and then we would close
the blind eye to it and the problem i feel the reason why things are happening to us as a culture, as a people,
is because we're not standing up together and putting up a united front and keeping moving forward.
It seems like the sovereign situation, in two or three more weeks, that's going to be water under the bridge until another situation happens.
We've got to stand up and we've got to show the world that we're united.
Any other race would stand up and show a to show the world that we're united. Any other race will stand up
and show a united front if this was happening
to their people.
I'm going to be honest, man. I think that
we have such ADD and things move
so fast. You know what I'm saying?
A lot of these causes are trendy
for the moment. The injustice at
Starbucks happens. Everybody talks about that.
The injustice with the police is going to happen.
Everybody's going to move on to that. People like to say we can do more than one thing at once, but it don't seem about that. An injustice with the police is going to happen, everybody's going to move on to that.
And people like to say we can do more than one thing at once,
but it don't seem like that.
We got to start sticking with it longer.
That's what I'm saying.
It seems like they throw money our way,
or the media, they try to, you know,
two or three days of talking about it,
then it's water under the bridge.
He's absolutely right.
We got to stand on these issues, man.
We just can't let a little money or a little apology ever just say,
okay, it's over. Nah, it's never over. Yeah, you got to stay on these issues, man. We just can't let a little money or a little apology ever just say, okay, it's over.
Nah, it's never over.
Yeah, you got to think something like the Montgomery bus boycott.
I think that was like a year and some change.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
That'll never happen now.
When we stick to one cause for a year or better.
All right.
Well, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
You can hit us up at any time.
Now, when we come back, we got the rumors.
R. Kelly, a.k.a. the Pied Piper, is looking to put it down on somebody.
Who?
A 13-year-old girl?
No.
We'll talk about it.
It's a wrap.
But we'll talk about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it Angela Yee.
Now, Vince Staples was out at Coachella and he did an interview and he started talking about R. Kelly.
Let's hear this.
R. Kelly never went to jail. He's a f***ing child molester. Okay, let's never talk about R. Kelly.
He's a child molester.
We can't ever talk about this guy.
But I'm saying he's a child molester and he pees on people and he can't read and write.
And he didn't go to jail.
I'm a good person.
R. Kelly a piece of ****.
So piece of **** R. Kelly didn't go to jail for being a child molester and peeing on people
and having a human trafficking ring in Atlanta.
Then I'll be alright.
Drop on the clues bombs with Vince Staples.
You know, R. Kelly is trash and should always be treated as such.
The man is a predator.
We saw the tape. And I've told y'all countless times. You know, the guy, is trash and should always be treated as such. The man is a predator.
We saw the tape.
And I've told y'all countless times, you know, the guy, he throws it in our face.
He calls himself the Pied Piper.
The Pied Piper was a man who left a bunch of, who led a bunch of kids from the village with music.
And their kids were never seen again.
He's written songs like Age Ain't Nothin' But a Number.
Like, why do we keep giving R. Kelly country, people?
Right.
He was talking to Nadeska from Complex.
Now, he put this text out yesterday talking to Vince Staples.
He just said, I just got a text saying R. Kelly's people is looking for me.
Guess it's time to get security.
The pied pipe is coming.
I mean, listen, R. Kelly's people have been looking for me for years.
He'll be fine.
Vince, you'll be fine.
Okay.
But didn't he reach out to you recently saying said he wanted to have a conversation with you?
Yeah.
Actually, he did.
Yes.
He absolutely did.
And what'd you tell him back?
No.
I'm not doing that.
I mean, R. Kelly don't got nothing to talk about.
You know what I mean? I guess it was because that whole documentary came out with the BBC and I guess...
Big Black what?
What's the BBC?
Man, shut up.
Oh, sorry.
And I guess he still, you know, he just won't...
The problem I have with R. Kelly
Is he just won't admit his demons
Okay won't you admit your demons like
Won't you admit the wrongs that you've
Done and you know what maybe some things have
Happened to R. Kelly in his life that he
Has never talked about hurt people hurt people
Maybe he was molested when he was younger
You know what I mean and maybe that leads him
To do the things that he does that's not an excuse
But maybe it would give people a little bit more understanding of your predatory ways.
But if he was to admit his demons, if those are his demons, he's going to jail.
And I don't think he wants to go to jail.
Can't he go to jail still?
I don't know.
I mean, I don't know.
I would think the statute of limitations is up on a lot of that stuff, but I don't know.
I just think R. Kelly is trash.
And like I said, him and Donald Trump
are made of the same type of material
because for whatever reason,
things just don't stick to them.
They don't get held to the same standard
as everybody else.
Now let's talk Steve Harvey.
Steve Harvey was on Ellen,
and he talked about Family Feud
where the West family and the Kardashian family
was on there, and this is what he had to say.
Kanye was the best Family Feud celebrity panelist
we've ever had on the show.
His people said, Steve,
this is the most Kanye has ever smiled
since we've been working.
Kanye smiled.
Kim didn't know nothing.
And they still said, good answer, good answer?
Yeah, well, their families are a little bit different.
When you don't give a good answer, they go,
what did you say?
And they fire across at each other.
Khloe's very competitive with Kim, and they were on opposite sides.
Listen, man, I'm going to be honest with you.
I miss Kanye West.
I do, too.
The reason I miss Kanye West is his energy right now.
I think Kanye's energy is very necessary.
The thing I like about Ye is that Ye has never followed any trends,
so therefore he never seems old,
so to speak, because he's always
had his own wave. He don't go with any wave, you know?
So I miss Kanye's energy right now.
Definitely needed energy, and I can't wait to hear his new project.
And speaking of new projects...
Not even his music, just hear him talk.
Yeah, but I want to hear some music. I miss the music as well.
Now, speaking of new music,
a lot of new albums are coming out. Of course,
Drake's Scorpion comes out June. J. Cole announced that he new albums Are coming out Of course Drake Scorpion Comes out June
J. Cole announced
That he has an album

YFLucci and more
And Post Malone

Nicki Minaj
Mayonnaise music

21 Savage And and more.
So those are the new projects coming out April 27th.
I'm interested in Cole.
I'm interested in Drake.
I'm interested in Tee Grizzly.
What about the last one?
Mayonnaise music.
You don't want to hear that one?
Nope.
You like Rockstar, right?
With 21 Savage?
That's going to be on this album?
Yeah.
I feel like Rockstar
been out for a year.
I'm tired of hearing
Rockstar on the radio.
And then Sypho,
the new single
with Ty Dolla $ign?
I haven't even heard that.
Yes, you have.
So damn,
if Rockstar is on this album,
that means that album
is going to go
10 times platinum
in the first day then.
Because that song
got to have over
a billion streams.
Yeah, that song is moving.
Jesus Christ.
All right. Well, that is your rumor report. Now, when we come back streams. Yeah, that song is moving. Jesus Christ. All right.
Well, that is your rumor report.
Now, when we come back, of course, Angel E is out.
Meek Mills' lawyer will be joining us.
We'll find out everything that's going on in that case.
I wasn't here for this one either, by the way.
No, you had to debout.
But we spoke to him.
He gave us all the updates, all the details, what we can do, if we can do anything to help, and more.
Now, this is a new lawyer, right?
This isn't the lawyer that has been on Angie Martinez.
No, no, this is a new lawyer.
That lawyer was the Jersey lawyer.
This lawyer is actually from New York City that was hired to make sure everything is going okay with that case.
He's like a big-time lawyer.
Like, we couldn't afford him.
So you're saying that the lawyer before wasn't big-time?
Is that what you're saying?
Are you saying that it takes more than one chef to cook a meal?
Yes, more than one chef to cook a meal.
That's what I'm trying to say.
All right.
Joe Tacopino, when we come back, keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have a special guest in the building.
Now, our producer said your last name was Tacopino, but I said that can't be right.
It's actually Tacopino.
They both sound the same to me.
Okay, Joseph Tacopino. Well, welcome to the show. the same to me. But what you just said was right, too. Joseph Takapina.
Well, welcome to the show.
Thanks for having me.
Now, you are Meek Mill's attorney.
Yes.
One of them.
Now, what the hell is going on?
What is going on with this judge?
Give us the details.
Give us the whole rundown.
Everybody thought he was getting out on Monday.
That was the word on his face.
Yeah, I don't know how that happened.
That was one of those internet rumors that just, you know, took on a life of its own.
But we had no real optimism that he was getting out yesterday because we were before this judge.
You know, it's hard to really tell you what is going on here because we really don't know.
I mean, we have a team of lawyers, Jordan See, Brian McMoneagle, myself, who have been involved in the practice collectively over 100 years.
You know, I was a both prosecutor, defense lawyer.
I've never seen anything like this in my 25 years ever.
Nothing close to this.
I mean, what happened yesterday was just a perfect example and maybe the defense, agreed that Meek Mill's conviction from 2008 should be thrown out.
Thrown out because of constitutional violations, because the cop who arrested him and beat him unconscious and lied about the facts of the case was on a list of cops who were dirty
or was on a list of cops who had committed perjury,
who was on the FBI investigation.
And that list was held.
And this cop's name, Graham in particular,
was hidden from Meek Mill's attorneys back in 2008.
Reginald Graham, right?
Reginald Graham.
Right.
And it's not just Meek.
There's 80 other cases with this cop that he has, I mean, really caused destruction in the justice system
and lied and put a lot of people in jail for things that they didn't do because he falsified documents.
He lied on the witness stand.
The district attorney agreed with us that Meek's underlying case needs to be dismissed.
It needs to be thrown out.
Now, if that's dismissed, that would mean his probation that he caught up is automatically dropped.
Gone.
Okay.
And all the time he did in jail and all the, you know, violations that this judge has hit him with would all be gone.
He'd be on probation no longer.
You know, they would set it for a new trial date,
but they would never bring this case to trial again.
No process of the case, because they don't have a witness.
So anyway, what happens is,
the district attorney agreed with us yesterday.
It was a watershed moment in this case.
I mean, when you have the DA saying,
we agree that the case has to be dismissed.
The conviction has to be overturned, so to speak.
Now, what happened was mind-boggling.
With that context, the judge then said, great, we'll have a hearing on June 18th in 60 more days.
Now, understand this.
Meek has been in jail for nearly five months over a bullshit probation violation.
And I mean that.
I'm not trying to make light of it because it's really a horrific thing what
happened to him.
Here's a guy who had been an exemplary probationer, who'd been someone who'd made something of
his life.
He came from one of the most difficult upbringings you could imagine.
His father shot dead when he was five on the same street where the cops rolled up on him.
And it was a situation where he'd been on probation for 10 years by a judge who was
stalking him, showed up at his at a homeless shelter where he was doing community service
to monitor, personally monitor his community service.
There's never been a judge in the history of American jurisprudence that's ever gone
to a homeless shelter to watch someone do community service.
But but, you know, there were requests.
We know about that boys to men request that she made.
Oh, that's true.
Tell us about that.
Look, I wasn't there, but Meek was there.
Nicki Minaj was there.
She asked something unusual.
She said, can we go back into my chamber's office off the record,
meaning no court reporters, no lawyers, no anyone.
She just wanted Meek and Nicki Minaj.
And they went back there because the judge asked.
And what were the lawyers to do at the time?
Say, no, you can't speak to our client.
You know, obviously, they were hoping that she was going to be lenient on him and whatever.
So they go back there.
And the way Meek tells us that she said to him, I think you should remake a Boyz II Men song, you know, Philly group Boyz II Men.
Obviously, it's a Philadelphia case on Ben Denise.
And you should throw a shout group, boys to men, obviously it's a Philadelphia case, on bended knees.
And you should throw a shout out in there to me,
you know, as a positive influencer to you.
And Meek started laughing.
I said, uh-huh.
And she said, no, I'm serious.
And he didn't know what to do.
And he said, well, you know, one,
I don't do boys to men.
It's not my genre exactly.
And two, I don't do shout outs in my songs to people.
And she said, shoot yourself.
Well, you know, that's something that is completely inappropriate for a judge to do.
Absolutely.
It's making a request of someone who you hold the keys to their freedom.
And if they don't grant that request, then what happens?
Well, what happened?
Like she did. So two to four years she gave him last November for a technical violation of probation.
Guys, I want to make sure you understand this.
Two to four years for a technical violation of probation.
Not a crime.
He didn't commit a crime.
I mean, people in Philadelphia, you could rob banks.
You don't go two to four years.
Okay?
He was sent to two to four years for popping a wheelie in New York.
And you know about that case.
Her representative here.
And we got that case dismissed and thrown out.
But it was a joke.
And she sent him back two to four years after having been on probation for 10 years.
Now, Nicki Minaj recently did an interview.
And she made a statement that she met with the judge.
And the judge did what was right.
And this, that, and the other.
So have y'all spoke to her? Because shouldn't she be able to get on the stand and the other. So have you spoke to her?
Cause shouldn't she be able to get on the stand and say,
this is what the judge said.
Listen,
there are five witnesses who were there when Meek and,
and,
and Nikki came out of chambers and they immediately huddled up and,
you know,
they told the story,
both of them told the story of these five witnesses about what happened.
You know,
Nikki right now is in a different spot with Meek, as you all know.
I mean, I don't think it's been a well-kept secret, right?
So, you know, her motivations and her agendas right now are really not of my concern.
If need to be proven, we can prove.
All right, we have more with Joe Takapina when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have Joe Tacopina in the building.
He's Meek Mill's attorney.
Yee?
Why can't this judge get removed from the case?
I know that was the effort that you were making.
I was still making it.
I mean, more than ever, more than ever now, it's clear she has.
Look, she hired a lawyer.
The judge hired a criminal lawyer because the FBI
was looking into her, okay, based on
this conduct. She hired a
criminal lawyer to threaten us, and me in particular,
that she was going to sue
for defamation, to which I have
said, come on, bring it
on. But I just don't understand why there's nothing
in place that can say, okay, this judge
has her own biases, there's questions about
this. I feel like that's what should happen
and let's bring in... I mean, imagine a judge
having a lawyer against the defendant
and his legal team and threatening
lawsuits against them and she's still the judge
overseeing the case.
It's so ridiculous. You don't have to be a lawyer or go
to law school to understand. Like, you guys are picking up on
it's a pure conflict.
It's exactly what can't happen. But why
does it happen? Is there nobody over her that can get her off?
I don't understand how the system works.
That's all I'm saying.
So that makes three of us, right?
We're all in the same boat because none of us understand it.
I mean, you're in a situation where, yes, there's appellate courts, there's a spirit court, there's a Supreme Court, and we're moving to all of them.
We're seeking relief from everyone and anyone.
So, you know, it's clear she
doesn't belong in this case. I mean, imagine this. She now knows the FBI had investigated her based
on a complaint that was made by Meek's legal team. And the FBI took steps to investigate her.
How could she sit in judgment of that guy who caused the FBI to look into her? How could she
sit in judgment of someone who she hired a lawyer to threaten? How could she sit in judgment of someone who she hired a lawyer to threaten?
How could she sit in judgment fairly and impartially?
It's a joke that she's still literally sitting on this case, but she is.
But again, let's go back to yesterday and see what happened.
You now have both parties agreeing that Meek's conviction should be tossed.
Right.
Okay?
Because of constitutional violations.
This evidence was known back in 2005 to the former district attorney who prosecuted the case, Seth Williams, who is now in federal prison for corruption.
And it was never turned over.
Meek's case was in 2008.
Now, normally in the world I live in, in courts, a hearing is required when two sides,
the prosecutors and defense in this case, disagree,
and the court is needed to settle the dispute.
That's why you have a hearing.
No disagreement here.
Here, there's no disagreement,
and therefore there's no need for a hearing.
But so instead of just saying,
okay, I grant, if you agree, prosecutor,
I grant your motion, case is set aside,
new trial, if they're ever going to bring a new trial,
he's released on bail. What she said yesterday was, yeah, well, we ever going to bring a new trial. He's released on bail.
What she said, yes, it was, yeah, well, we're going to have a hearing
in two months. Thank you. She's basically a dictator. Basically said,
I don't give a fuck what y'all are saying. This is my court
and this is what I want to do. That is crazy.
And wait, and then how about this? So we then
say, okay, okay.
You want to put a hearing for
60 days from now, even though there's no need
for a hearing?
Do what you want to do.
But hear us on bail.
Obviously, there's a major change in circumstances.
The district attorney is now saying we are going to move
and join in the motion to have this case overturned.
Okay?
Let him out on bail now.
And he's clearly not fleeing anywhere.
She said at one point she said he was a flight risk.
I mean, where is Meek Mill going to go?
Exactly.
You know, and what happens is we say, all right, let him out on bail at least.
The inevitable is happening.
I mean, the case is going to be overturned, right, without question.
You have a corrupt cop.
You know, if I were this judge or any judge, I would be furious that a law enforcement officer came into my courtroom, took an oath to tell the truth and lied.
Not only against Meek, but against 80 other people that are known who are going to have their hearings on Friday.
And like, how dare you take these people's lives from them and take them from their families for all this time.
Lying.
I mean, lying and making up facts.
If I were the judge, I'd be furious about that.
Instead, she's saying,
you know, we'll see.
We'll have a hearing.
We'll see if there's really
a reason to overturn
his conviction.
But the prosecutor
just said there is also.
Right.
And the governor
is even like that.
It's not just the prosecutor.
It's the governor.
It's the mayor.
It's senators.
I've never seen in my life
anything like this.
I've never had a governor.
I'm a defense attorney.
I've never had a governor back my client up in a criminal case.
Nobody can pardon him?
That's not, you can't pardon him?
There's a process.
Yeah, sure.
The governor can do that.
There's a process.
It happens twice a year, June and December.
I mean, you know, if he's still in there in June and December, I mean, I'm going to lose
my mind.
I mean, we've just really have had, I mean, this, this is, and he's been so good about
being, you know, positive
and optimistic and understand he's in there for a greater good.
You know what? And the bigger issue now for people is the whole process of being on probation
for as long as they put young people on probation, young black men knowing that at some point
you're going to have some type of interaction with the cops.
And that's all you need. Understand that.
It's not even a charge. It's not even getting arrested. It's just an interaction.
You got it. You just said it. I'm confused
because, you know, this is the hard thing
because they always say, hey, you know,
when you go to school, you want to represent your community.
She's black. She's from the community. So she should
understand the pitfalls. But it seems like
this vendetta, she just wants revenge.
Now, you said the FBI is
investigating her. How long does that take?
Like, while she's being investigated, she shouldn't be able to be on the stand.
Right.
And obviously, there's only so much I can say about the FBI investigation
and what's going on or what has happened in the past.
You know, the current status of that is, quite frankly, not known to me.
At this point, they don't check in with us.
Okay.
But I'm telling you factually what happened,
and there was interaction with the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office in this case, they don't check in with us. But I'm telling you factually what happened and that there was interaction
with the FBI and the U.S. Attorney's Office
in this case and they took proactive steps, I will tell
you that, which is a massive
statement. I mean, the FBI
and the U.S. Attorney don't
get involved in an investigation of a sitting judge
unless they think there's something wrong.
Now, putting that aside,
let me tell you one other fact. There are
80 other cases that this cop, Graham, has caused people to have motions for post-conviction relief.
All 80 other cases are being heard by the chief judge, Skipper Woods, on Friday, like in two days from now.
Meek's the only one who's staying for Judge Brinkley and the hearings in June.
Wow.
I mean, what is going on?
And I would think in my head, OK, this could potentially end up being a lawsuit at some point.
Yeah, you know, it certainly could end up being a lawsuit at some point.
But honestly, that's the furthest thing from our mind right now. In your mind, I'm talking about on their end, like this could be snowballing to something even bigger.
Well, the whole entire justice system.
And that's what we want.
Look, this new district attorney, Krasner, he's really got courage.
He's a different sort of prosecutor because he doesn't come from the government cloth, so to speak.
He was a civil rights lawyer.
He did a lot of cases against these cops.
And he came in and did something very courageous yesterday by being honest and agreeing and stepping up and saying, yeah, you know what?
And they agreed to bail, by the way.
They agreed to bail.
And they agreed that his conviction should be overturned.
And she wouldn't even hear us on bail yesterday.
I mean, you know, if you want to even pretend that you're being judicial and fair, you grant bail.
Or you at least hear us on bail.
I mean, the prosecutor is saying, yes, he should have bail.
We're going to have the case thrown out. We agree that the conviction should be overturned. The defense is asking for bail. You at least hear us on bail. I mean, the prosecutor's saying, yes, he should have bail. We're going to have the case thrown out.
We agree that the conviction should be overturned.
The defense is asking for bail.
She said, no, no, we're not doing bail today.
I don't want to hear about bail.
See you on June 18th.
All right, we have more with Meek Mill's attorney, Joe Tacopino, when we come back.
Let's get on the Meek Mill joint.
Let's do dreams and nightmares.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, we're talking to Joe Tacopino, which is Meek Mill's attorney.
Now, was there any truth that the judge wanted her friend to manage Meek Mill?
Was that true?
Yeah, well, this whole thing with this guy, Charlie Mack.
I mean, you know, there's been way too many connections between her and Charlie Mack.
And she handpicked the probation officer in this case, this probation officer named Underwood. Underwood was great friends with Charlie Mack. And she handpicked the probation officer in this case,
this probation officer named Underwood.
Underwood was great friends with Charlie Mack.
She handpicked this probation officer, and time and again,
about 15 times on the record over the years,
the probation officer kept saying,
you should go back to Charlie Mack, leave Roc Nation.
I mean, Roc Nation's one of the, you know,
obviously premier management companies in this genre and entertainment.
And the probation officer kept saying, you know,
it's the judge's desire and leave Roc Nation.
Go back to Charlie Mack.
He was good and he was great.
Well, that's not the case, first of all.
Meek left him for a reason.
But, you know, again, you shouldn't have a situation where the judge,
her hand-picked probation officer, the district attorney,
anyone is influencing or trying to influence his career decisions. And if he doesn't do it which he didn't you know what
happens is there repercussions because this probation officer actually got removed from the
case because i went to the probation officer's chief and i explained what happened i have a record
of what's going on and and there were recorded phone calls that were sent to us by people who
were recording calls with this with this probation officer that were outrageous.
Who oversees the judge, though?
Like, there's an overseer for everything.
Who oversees the judge?
Well, there's different forums, obviously.
There's judicial committees, and that's one thing.
There is certainly, you have the appellate courts, you know, the Superior Court and then the Supreme Court.
And we're there.
And you guys are going to the Supreme Court.
We're there.
We're already there.
We're waiting on them at this point. You know, it would be hopeful that they would be a little more expeditious, a little quicker in their decisions here.
Because, you know, you have a guy who's sitting in jail who doesn't belong in jail.
It just seems crazy that the mayor, the governor can come and visit and say they support, but the man is still in jail.
Like, that just seems crazy to me.
Yeah, it's a first for me.
Like, it's like they have no power.
It's like, you're the governor, you're the mayor, but you can't get the young man out over a judge?
That's crazy.
Yeah, well, you know, the judicial system has to be independent, and I understand that part of it, right?
We don't want politicians deciding who's guilty, not guilty, who's in jail and who's not.
But when you have a governor taking a stance that there's obviously, you know, this is affecting the community. And what Meek said to me yesterday was, which really is amazing, it shows you who he is,
is that, you know, Joe, if I did this time and it helps fix this system and shines a
light on the deficiencies and the problems with our system, including the probation,
you know, issues.
I mean, the numbers are daunting.
As far as financially, are you guys pro bono?
Because this case could cost a lot of money, and Meek's not making it.
He's not on the road.
He's not doing shows.
He's not recording albums.
I was going to be like, how can we help financially as far as that?
Because he has a team of lawyers.
He's got a team.
He's got a team of lawyers.
But he's got some great people behind him.
He's got Rock Nation.
He's got Jay. He's got Rock Nation. He's got a team of lawyers. But, you know, he's got some great people behind him. He's got Roc Nation. He's got Jay.
He's got Roc Nation.
He's got Mike Rubin.
Mike Rubin is, like, you know, he's Mike's one of the owners of the 76ers.
Right, absolutely.
A lot of us aren't doing this for the money either.
I mean, I charge a fraction of what I would normally charge in a case like this because this is so much more than a case to me.
It really is.
This is about someone who I care about.
I mean, I love him.
And what's happened to him makes me furious.
As someone who cares about the system, it makes
me furious to see it being abused
the way it's being abused. And I saw Meek did an interview
from jail as well over the phone.
Yeah. I didn't know
you could do that. I just wasn't sure.
I was a little nervous. I was like, is he supposed to be?
Yeah, I didn't know that either, quite frankly.
But obviously it was arranged through
powers to be and I guess he got special permission.
I'm glad he did it.
Now, how can the people help?
Because that's what everybody wants to know.
How can we help?
Should we write letters?
Should we come to marches?
How can we help to support Meek, if any way?
You know, that's funny.
So far it hasn't mattered, but it does matter because that support, keeping the voices loud
and keeping people out there.
Yeah, whenever there's march marches like there were yesterday
outside that courthouse, it was a rally. I mean, it was very
impressive in the pouring rain there.
There was a lot of people.
People can help by keeping this on the
forefront. That's right. We talk about it. We've been
following the case very closely up here on The Breakfast
Club. I know you guys have. We make sure that we report
everything that happens and especially when
the information came out about the police
officer. Yeah, that was another first for me. I mean mean this case has been full of firsts in my career but
this is eye-opening too is i saw the shift and when he first went back to jail people some people
were saying oh well he violated probation and that's what happens you don't get special treatment
because you're a celebrity but then now you hear all the intricacies of what it really is it's just
a technical violation he didn't get arrested he didn... He popped a wheelie during a rap video
with eight other people, okay,
in Washington Heights at about two in the morning.
There was no one on the streets.
He popped a wheelie.
And on that video, you see a big police van
that they passed.
That they passed a big police van.
The police didn't arrest him.
They didn't do anything.
No, the next day, someone in one police plaza,
the headquarters of the New York City Police Department,
was watching that video and said, you know, I think we should go arrest him.
I mean, imagine, with all the problems we have in this city,
somebody at one police plaza, a higher-ranking officer in the New York City Police Department,
a chief or someone, was studying the Meek Mill Papa Wheelie video,
and then they sent 22 cops to arrest him when he was at the basketball
game.
Dykeman, I think it was.
And at the basketball tournament, all these kids
were there signing, you know,
autographs, doing pictures. And he's
walking out and he sees like a squadron of
cops coming at him. And all these
kids around him. And he's thinking, okay, they're here
to help me out. And he's like, no, no, I'm okay. I'm okay.
These guys are cool. I'm just taking pictures. pictures and they're like get in the car and he
knows what's going on they arrest him a day later for popping a wheelie that's crazy and then they
tried to charge him with felony to keep him in jail overnight i mean it was really the district
attorney did the right thing in that case and dismissed it um but the fact that he went through
that and that that triggered the violation of probation okay that's uh when you get arrested
you don't have to be convicted, you don't have to
have anything. You just get,
you know, now the only one who wanted
a hearing for the violation of probation was Judge Brinkley.
The probation officer didn't ask for a hearing.
Okay, and then she put him in for two to
four. Is there something deeper? Because I
you know, I really can't see this
like it has to be something deeper relationship
between Judge Brinkley and
Meek Mill. There's nothing else.
I've called it an unhealthy obsession.
I mean, when a judge shows up at a homeless shelter,
and she was on sick leave, by the way, when she showed up at the homeless shelter.
She wasn't even working.
She showed up at the homeless shelter and talked to him about how he was doing his community service.
The Charlie Mack thing, the manager thing with this Trace Underwood.
And look, you know, the words don't have to come out of the judge's mouth.
The handpicked probation officer said on the record many times,
this is the judge's desires.
And the judge is sitting right there and didn't say,
no, what are you talking about?
It's my desire.
It's not my desire.
So the handpicked probation officer is pushing Charlie Mack.
But yes, they shared a chance to make it right.
You have a corrupt cop who's defecated on this system. Okay. Who's, who's, who's handed out,
you know, the worst form of justice, corruption. And, and she had a chance when the district
attorney agreed that this is, this case has to be overturned. She had a chance to say,
okay, fine. I'm furious. This happened in my courtroom. I consent. I agree
with the moving papers. The district
attorney agrees. Cases
is overturned. We grant PCRA
relief and let them out on bail.
But she just locked in. Locked in
and to me it shows a level
of bias and unreasonableness that you
can't even argue against anymore. You can't even argue.
You can't even defend it. And what this really
brings to light is there's so many people out there that won't have the opportunity to have a high-powered lawyer like yourself,
to have the attention, to have the money, the finances, and they get caught up in the system.
Correct.
And no one knows about it.
And that's something, I'm telling you, that's something that Meek keeps talking about.
And, you know, he said it time and again about making sure this shines a light on the voiceless.
Because there are a lot of people who get swallowed up by the system and can't fight back like this.
Wow.
Well, we appreciate you joining us, man.
Definitely send Meek our love.
Yes, Meek is in our prayers.
And we've been definitely making sure that we keep our eye on everything that's happening and are very vocal about it as well.
Thank you guys.
I love to his family and all that.
And, you know, is there anything else that you want to say
before you get up out of here?
No, I mean, you guys, I mean, obviously, you know,
keeping this in the forefront is important.
Even when he gets out,
we got to make sure this doesn't go back to where it was, right?
Absolutely.
So that's something we need to do.
And, no, that's it.
I mean, you guys have been great.
You know, hopefully this has an impact.
Free Meek Mill.
All right.
Well, we appreciate you for joining us.
Joseph.
Thanks, guys.
Taco Pita.
You got it.
All right.
Nice to see you, Jimmy.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Kevin Hart.
It's about time. What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report
with Angela Yee
on the Breakfast Club.
Well, let's talk
Kevin Hart. Now, Kevin Hart
was at the game the other night. Philadelphia
76ers were taking on the Miami Heat
and Dwayne Wade had
the game of a lifetime. I wouldn't say
lifetime, but he busted some ass. It wasn't
the game of a lifetime. Why were you acting like Dwayne Wade
not Dwayne Wade? He's a three-time champion.
Right, but he hasn't played like this in a while.
He's pretty old now, but he busted some ass
the other night. He's 36 years old, man.
But he busted some ass. He did.
He did. He did. He did. He took a little HGH
and got returned to form.
I wouldn't say that, but after the game, they had a conversation like, you know,
why'd he get so busy, you know?
What was the hot streak about?
And this is what he had to say.
What got into you tonight?
Kevin Hart.
Thank Kevin Hart for that.
Now, allegedly, Kevin.
You don't play the pause game no more, huh?
Nah.
Okay, because you can't do it.
What got into you tonight, Kevin Hart?
Kevin Hart got into me.
I guess we're all maturing.
We don't play the pause game anymore, huh?
Well, only sometimes. Well guess we're all maturing. We don't play the pause game anymore. Only sometimes.
That was necessary just now.
Allegedly, Kevin Hart was talking mad smack on the sidelines the whole game,
and they said Dwayne Wade just got pissed off.
Well, Kevin Hart, of course, responded.
Well played, Dwayne.
You going to blame this on me?
Blame Kevin Hart?
I see what you're doing.
On ESPN.
On ESPN, you going to say that? That boy wrong. Well Oh, I see what you're doing. On ESPN! On ESPN, you gonna say that?
That boy wrong.
Well, let me tell you something, sucker!
We're about to come to Miami and heat it up.
You hear me?
So they just been having a lot of fun with it.
All right, you said Dwyane Wade dropped 30 on your ass tonight.
You know what I'm saying?
They gonna ban Kevin from the series.
Well, not only that.
It seems like Michael Blackson and Kevin Hart made up.
They took a picture at the game.
I saw that.
Great thing.
And then Michael Blackson also posted a picture.
If you remember the movie Juice, there was a scene where Tupac was kind of hugging his man,
but it wasn't a hug like, I love you.
It was a hug like, I'm going to kill you later on.
Oh, you mean when he came to the wake?
Right.
When Bishop came to Raheem's wake.
Right, exactly. Well, Michael Blackson posted that picture and wake, when Bishop came to Raheem's wake. Right, exactly.
Well, Michael Blackson posted that picture and said, yeah, I ain't little nigga.
Well, Kevin Hart reposted.
He actually left a comment under that and said, all I can do is laugh.
I see you and your mood and attitude was nothing like the one that you have on social media.
I even took the mature approach in having a conversation with you.
Now you go right back to the ish
Let's have a different conversation next time I see you
I'm going to give you the attention that you desperately want
What is this fake news you report?
Now I ain't seen none of this on no damn Michael Blackson's page
I ain't seen no picture of no juice and hugging Raheem's mama
I ain't seen no Kevin Hart comment like that
Where you getting this from?
Well, he posted and deleted it
But one of our producers actually took a screenshot of it and has it.
He took it himself.
It was deleted after like 10 minutes, but we have it.
So Michael Blackson deleted his post too?
Yep.
I don't believe this.
I got it right here.
I'm telling you.
I got it.
It's right here.
I don't got to believe y'all.
Y'all do anything for ratings.
I don't know what y'all talking about.
You've never seen that in my life.
You're on our same team.
No, forget it.
And also, the Billboard Awards.
Do you care about the Billboard Awards?
No, not really.
Well, I'm going to tell you about it anyway.
Top artists.
Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran.
Who you give it to?
Of the top artists?
Of the year, yep.
Of the year.
Why are they nominated for top of Drake, Kendrick?
What year?
Last year? Yes, last year. Drake, Kendrick, what year? Last year?
Yes, last year.
Drake, Kendrick,
or Ed Sheeran?
Kendrick Lamar
for the damn album.
Damn won a Pulitzer Prize.
So yeah,
you got to give it to Kendrick.
Did Drake even put out
an album last year?
I'm just telling you
what they're telling.
What's on his paper bar?
Sleuth to my guy,
Ed Sheeran.
Top female artist.
Cardi B.
No, SZA's not on there.
Oh.
Halsey,
Demi Lovato,
Taylor Swift, or Cardi B?
Cardi B, goddammit.
Y'all know Atlantic cuts us checks.
I'm saying Cardi B.
I thought Scissor was going to be in that category.
Why isn't Scissor in that category?
She's in the top R&B artist with Chris Brown, Khalid, Bruno Mars, Scissor, and The Weeknd.
Oh, the Billboard nomination sounds like complete trash.
I'm just telling.
What's the R&B?
Chris Brown, who?
Scissor, and who?
The Weeknd, Bruno Mars, Khalid, and Chris Brown.
I'm giving that to SZA.
All right, last one.
Top female rap artists.
Cardi B or Nicki Minaj?
Cardi B.
Of last year?
Yep.
Cardi B.
Okay.
Come on, what are we doing here?
I'm just telling you what the Billboard Awards.
And I know people are going to say we biased, but Nicki didn't put out no music last year.
Did she?
No, the Billboard Awards, if you want to see it, is May 20th on NBC, if you want to check that out.
All right, well, that is your rumor report.
Yee's out of town.
That's why I have to do that issue, and I hate it.
Now, Chalamet.
Yes, that's why you're making up stuff.
I ain't making up stuff.
I got the, you know what, forget it.
Who are you giving your donkey to?
Hey, donkey of the day is going to a young man from Florida.
His name is Xavier Moran.
It might be Xavier Moron.
I'm not quite sure because I got a South Carolina public school education, but he needs to come to the front man from Florida. His name is Xavier Moran. It might be Xavier Moron. I'm not quite sure
because I got a South Carolina
public school education,
but he needs to come
to the front of the congregation.
We'd like to talk to him.
All right, we'll get into that
when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
You get donkey of the day.
Yeah, you got ass.
You get donkey of the day.
Yeah, you got ass.
You are a donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes.
They want this man to throw them blows, man.
They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves.
Let's go.
They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day.
They chose you.
To the breakfast club, bitches.
Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Well, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, April 18th goes to
a 25-year-old man named Xavier
Moran. Now, I'm going to be honest with you. His last name
is spelled M-O-R-A-N.
I don't know if it's Moran or Moron
because I have a South Carolina public school education.
And, you know, I'm
pretty sure it's Moran, but it makes me feel better
to say Moron because that's exactly what
Xavier is, a moron. Now, Xavier's from
the great state of Florida,
and nothing makes me feel better than when I go through my Don Quixote candidates and I see Florida by their name.
What does your Uncle Charla always tell you?
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
That is an undisputed fact that people like Xavier keep proving me right about every day.
And I love giving people the credit they deserve for being stupid.
And sadly, a lot of people in the credit they deserve for being stupid. And sadly,
a lot of people in Florida are a special kind of stupid. And I say that with love,
Floridians. Okay, y'all know y'all
crazy. But the thing I like about
Florida is that Floridians act like their
brand of crazy is normal. Okay,
they have no problem flexing their
stupidity. In fact, some Floridians
think their brand of crazy is perfectly
normal. Case in point, Xavier.
Now, Xavier Moran or Moran was involved in a car crash.
He told the sheriff's deputy he had been cut off by another driver and could prove it with his dashboard camera.
Xavier then signed a consent waiver for the police to search the camera.
Respect to Xavier.
Drop on the clues bombs to Xavier because that's what you do when you're innocent.
OK, you provide evidence that shows you are indeed telling the truth.
And that's what Xavier did by handing over his dash cam.
The problem is you don't hand over that footage if that footage incriminates you for another crime.
See, Xavier gave the dash cam footage to Palm Beach County Sheriff's deputies.
And they reviewed the footage.
And when they reviewed the footage, they saw Xavier Moran burglarizing a beauty store.
Authorities said the video showed Moran taking a baseball bat from the trunk
and someone using the bat to break the glass door to the beauty store.
And now Xavier is in jail on burglary charges.
Okay, Florida, I know all my Floridians that listen to The Breakfast Club
are shaking their heads in disgust right now,
saying to themselves, why do y'all keep giving Charlamagne content for that damn donkey of the day?
But here's the thing, Florida, y'all can't help yourselves, okay?
You just can't, all right?
Crazy is as crazy does, and nobody does crazy like Florida.
Now, full disclosure, okay, just to make some Floridians feel better about themselves,
I've been in a similar situation like this before
I was with a couple of homies from Jersey
I think the year may have been 2008
I was with them on a Friday and a Saturday night
Friday night we were in Harlem
And we got pulled over twice in one night
DTs hopped out on us twice
And the car was just like a Honda with Jersey plates
They searched the car, found nothing, let us go
Both times, cool
The next night we was in Fort Lee, New Jersey Got pulled over It was just like a Honda with jersey plates. They searched the car, found nothing, let us go. Both times. Cool.
The next night, we was in Fort Lee, New Jersey.
Got pulled over.
I'm laughing.
The reason I'm laughing is because I'm telling my homie he is a magnet for police. I told him this car attracts police like a moth to the flame burned by the fire.
Okay, when the police came to the car, I started making jokes with them, too.
When the police officer asked for his license and registration, I told the officer,
trust me, sir, he knows the procedure. This happens to him to him all the time cops tell us to get out the car okay
whatever we black we get it if you want to search the car you know whatever okay i'm telling the
police they're searching the car that you're wasting your time harassing us meanwhile it's
murderers and rapists and drug dealers and gun runners driving past you right now that you could
be pulling over all of a sudden another officer who wasn't even searching the car says,
put your hands behind your back.
Okay, in my mind, I'm thinking I went too far with the jokes.
But what actually happened was my homie,
when he handed the police his license and registration,
he gave it to him in like this little plastic baggy thing.
And the plastic baggy thing had his license, insurance, registration,
and four grams of cocaine in it.
What?
Yes, yes.
I told you this story before.
He literally handed this to the police, okay?
He had me thinking the police planted it on him
until we got to the Bergen County Jail,
and he finally admitted it was his.
Now, I know you're in Florida right now thinking,
now, Charlamagne, that was stupid.
And you're right.
But not as stupid as your boy Xavier,
because Xavier clearly didn't know his dumb ass recorded himself breaking into this beauty store.
He clearly had no idea he recorded himself.
Because there's no way in hell you know that you are on your dash cam breaking into a beauty store.
And you hand it to the, you know what?
Never mind.
Xavier and my partner in Jersey from 08, both stupid.
Please give Xavier Moran, our moron, the biggest hee-haw.
By the way, I don't kick it with that homie.
I would hope not.
Anymore.
Oh, no.
I haven't talked to him in over a decade.
I don't know who Xavier Moran needs to cut off because he did that himself.
My goodness.
All right.
But nobody needs to be friends with a guy like Xavier.
Thank you for that donkey today.
Now, when we come back, you know, usually we do ask ye, but she's out.
So, you know, we do ask C and E right now.
800-585-1051.

We'll help you out with all your problems.

800-585-1051.
This is going to be extra fire today
because, you know, I've been going to therapy. I go to
therapy every Friday at 3. So I'm good
at this kind of stuff. Yeah, alright. Call us
now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning,
everybody. It's DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are
The Breakfast Club. Ask C&E if you need relationship advice. We'll help you out. Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club as C&E.
If you need relationship advice, we'll help you out.
Yee's not here. Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's going on, man? It's Jeffrey. Hey, Jeffrey, man.
What's your question for us, man? So, I got
three baby moms. One of them just causing
a lot of problems making false accusations
and stuff like that. So, I just kind of want to see how
I can weed her out and still
be able to stay with my girlfriend without
her, like, causing rumors and all that good stuff.
So you got three baby mamas,
but your baby mama is messing up your new girlfriend.
Basically, yeah.
The advice I would give you, sir,
is it's a guy named Doc Brown that you should seek out.
Doc Brown has invented a time machine.
It's in the form of a DeLorean.
You should get into that DeLorean and go back in time and wear a condom, sir.
That's what you should do.
Well, sir, I mean, there's really nothing you can do.
I mean, you put yourself in that position.
You have three baby moms.
You got to deal with it for the rest of your life.
The only thing I would do is try to separate my baby moms from my girlfriend
unless they're trying to get in touch with her on social media and things like that.
And then I would go into my girlfriend's phone and block them myself
so they have no way to speak to each other.
And you should wear condoms now so you don't have a fourth
baby mama because your protection game
is clearly trash. Very trash. Yeah.
Yeah, I got, well, she already been
blocked, but she's like calling from different numbers
sending videos and all that stuff like that.
And I'm actually looking to propose
to my current girlfriend now, but
she's just calling like a whole bunch of problems, so.
I wouldn't marry you. You got three kids from three
different baby mamas. I wouldn't marry you if I was her.
Well, I'm glad you wouldn't marry him.
You're married already, sir.
Yeah.
Hello, who's this?
This is Juice.
Hey, your name is Juice?
Yeah.
All right, Juice.
You sound like your baby in the backseat choking on some juice right now.
Why are you coughing so much?
What's your question?
I got a couple kids in the back.
Whoa.
All right.
What's your question, mama?
My question is, for some reason, it's not hard for me
to find a date
or find somebody
to deal with,
but I just cannot
keep anyone.
The relationship
is horrible.
That's because
of them two little kids
in the back.
Stop.
How many kids
you have back there, Mama?
I have a set of twins
and a son.
All right.
You got a set of twins.
You got five kids?
No, she got three kids.
A set of twins in the cell.
A set of twins. Okay. All right. I'm stupid. South Carolina Public School Education. All right. So you got a set of twins. You got five kids? No, she got three kids. A set of twins in the cell. A set of twins.
Okay.
All right.
I'm stupid.
South Carolina Public School Education.
All right.
So you got three kids.
Nobody want no ready-made family, ma.
That's just all it is.
Okay.
Well, let me ask you a question.
How do you look?
Are you in the gym?
Do you look nice?
Tell us how your parents look.
I mean, well, I recently lost a lot of weight, and I look damn good.
All right.
I'm telling you, like, flies on the turn.
Like, everybody's at me.
Alright, well everybody's asking.
We don't have a good conversation though.
Like I cannot, I hate that.
Well where are you looking for these guys?
Nobody wants a ready made family, man. Why are we lying
to this young lady? You got three kids, that's what
it is. Stop. I'm sure, I'm, clearly your
box is good cause people have shot your club up
a few times, you know what I'm saying? But they
just don't want to be, they don't want that ready-made family. Now,
there's some guys out there who got two
and three kids themselves so y'all can come together
and make y'all own little ghetto Brady Bunch.
But other than that, nah. Well, where are you looking,
mama? Are you in the club? See, if you're in the club,
your body might look good
and like he said, if you're in the club,
these guys want to smash and they might not
want a ready-made family. I don't club.
I don't club in D period. I don't club. I don't club, indeed, period.
I don't club.
I got three kids.
Okay, so where are you looking for these guys at?
They find me at the grocery store, at the gas station, at the library.
Find a man that has two or three kids like you do.
Try Christian Mingle.
Christian Mingle.
Christian Mingle.
Yes, people on Christian Mingle are very forgiving.
They're very forgiving.
That's all I can come up with.
800-585-1051.
Ask C&E.
Call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Everybody, it's T-E-J-N-V, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask C&E.
Angela Yee's out, so you can call us up and ask us some questions about your relationship or whatever you need.
Hello, who's this?
Rob, man.
Rob, what's up, man?
What's your question for C&E, bro?
This chick done pulled a pee-pee out on me, and she keep on saying that.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You said a chick pulled a pee-pee out on you.
A pee-pee-o. Oh, pee-pee out on you. A PPO.
Oh, PPO.
Okay, all right, all right.
Okay.
Go ahead, bro.
Yeah, she keep on saying I've been throwing rocks and stuff at her house,
but my car been broke down for the past two months.
So, like, all the stuff she's saying is I don't even got no way to get over to her crib.
I mean, there's other ways than using your car, dummy.
You could take a Lyft.
You could take a Uber.
Bike. Bus. But you might need to tape yourself than using your car, dummy. You could take a Lyft. You could take a Uber. Bike.
Bus.
But you might need to tape yourself being in your house, you know,
just so the police do know that you're at your house.
Why is she messing with you so crazy?
Because, I don't know.
She says she, so we broke up, and she says she wanted her space.
So I started giving her her space like she asked,
and then all of a sudden it popped off and started happening.
What year is this that she's accusing you of throwing rocks at the window?
What happened to text messages and repeated phone calls over and over?
Like, why are you throwing rocks at the window?
That's what I'm saying is I don't take Uber or Lyft nowhere.
I literally work 10 hours a day in the morning.
First you said you don't drive.
Now you're saying you don't take Uber or Lyft nowhere.
But I ain't ask you that.
I said, why are you throwing rocks at the girl's window?
Oh, I don't throw rocks.
You know what?
I don't know what's going on here.
Somebody lying.
The girl is accusing him of throwing rocks at her window.
He's saying he didn't do it.
But like you said, who throws rocks at windows in 2018?
Hello?
Hello, who's this?
Yeah, this is Jonathan.
I just wanted the record to show we gave that guy no advice just now.
Jonathan, what's your question for C&E?
I want to ask y'all, how did you deal with, I'm a male,
how do you deal with a female manager at your job?
Because if I get loud or if I talk, my voice is deep,
so they always say they're uncomfortable or they nervous.
And it's stuff like that that get on my nerves like that.
Yeah, you just got to take it at this point.
It's called karma.
You know what I'm saying?
Guys have been being real
shitty to women
for the past 20, 30, 40, 50 years,
beginning of time.
All right?
So you just got to take it.
So that's my fault.
I'm supposed to take that.
It's our turn now.
It's our turn now.
When I say good morning,
when I say good morning,
she walk in and go in her office
and close the door.
Hey, just be happy you got a job.
It's our turn now.
All right.
I don't know if that was great advice either. Hello, who's this? I think that's great advice. This is Christian. Hey, just be happy you got a job. It's our turn now. I don't know if that was great advice either.
Hello, who's this? I think that's great advice.
This is Christian. Hey Christian, what's your question
for CNE? So my question is
I've been dealing with this guy for about
8-9 months and we've been
spending a lot of time together but
every time we get into an argument
or whatever, it's this one girl
that he's always contacting which
is a female
he used to deal with.
So I'm just trying to figure out,
am I diagnosed
with that Florida syndrome
of being crazy
and trying to make myself
think it's normal?
Or do I just need
to let this dude go?
You need to let him go.
I mean, first of all,
if he's still with the ex,
because he's still with the ex,
there is no ex
when it's a new relationship.
You can't go back to your ex.
You can't call your ex unless he got a baby by her.
Now, that ain't happening.
How long she say they been together?
Nine months.
Nine months.
Have y'all experienced any holidays together?
Yes.
Yes, we have.
Okay, what holiday?
Tell me which ones.
Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year.
Those are serious ones.
Was he with you on Thanksgiving?
Yes.
Yes, he's been all of his time with me.
He does.
Okay.
So you're not a side chick?
She's not the side chick, no.
No, I'm not the side chick.
So I'm thinking being that he always contacts this girl anytime we get into an argument,
is this something that he's not going to let go in?
I don't want to have to go through a relationship having to worry about that.
Maybe they're just good friends now. Maybe they're just good friends now.
Maybe they're just good friends now and that's what
he reaches out to when he needs some advice about
his woman. No, you can't have good friends with an
ex. He wouldn't let me talk to my ex.
Exactly. If he doesn't want to let that
ex go, you let him go and I guarantee
you he'll be running back within three weeks.
Why don't you just try him?
Why don't you say, look, I want to have a threesome with me, you
and your ex and see what he says.
If he gets excited, he's definitely still smashing her.
That's disgusting.
I didn't say to do it.
Thank you, mama.
I didn't say to do it.
I just said test the waters.
Put your little big toe in the water.
See what the temperature is.
Hello?
Yeah.
All right.
This is the last one.
Ask CNE.
What's your question, bro?
How do you keep from accusing your girlfriend of cheating on you?
Is she cheating on you?
No, she's not, though.
Why do you keep accusing her?
I don't know.
You know, she's pretty.
I just keep doing it.
I don't know.
I'm going to tell you how you keep your girlfriend from cheating on you.
Keep her away from Drake.
Keep her away from Trey Songz.
And you'll be fine.
Okay?
No, but I used to go.
Oh, Michael B. Jordan, too.
Keep going for Michael B. Jordan.
You'll be fine.
I used to do the same thing.
It's called insecure.
Your girl looks so good that you think when she's out,
she's doing something that she's probably not.
I'm sorry.
Just don't worry.
You got to have a little trust and a little faith,
and every once in a while, you got to pop up on her ass.
But have a little trust, and every once in a while,
when you think something's funny, don't tell her.
Just pop up and say, hey, I was
in the area. Cool. Don't stress yourself
over that whole situation, man, because you
always got to remember, as much as you think that's your
vagina, it's not. It's hers, and she
can and will share it with whoever she
want to, okay? Good luck.
Thanks. That's not what he wanted
to hear this morning. I know, but I hope we help people with
their problems. I think we kind of didn't, but
I think we did, because, you know, I do therapy every Friday at 3, but I hope we help people with their problems. I think we kind of didn't, but I think we did, because you know
I do therapy every Friday at 3.
So I think that is helping me.
Alright, well that was
Ask C&E 800-585-1051.
Now when we come back, we
got rumors. Kodak Black,
will he be coming home soon? We'll let you know.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Rumors on the way.
Spilling the tea. This is the. She's spilling the tea.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Now, Kodak Black went to court, and he has been sentenced to one year behind bars
after striking a deal with Florida prosecutors.
That was with his gun and weed case.
And he's getting time served, so he'll be home in October.
So, listen, Kodak Black,
please don't make me have to give you donkey of the day
again, man. Alright, you're getting another
chance, yet another chance
to get your life together and get your
career on track. Please make the most of
it, sir. Well, Kodak Black's attorney
actually put this statement out on
Twitter yesterday. He just said,
completely resolved the Kodak Black case.
The state and judge were professional and fair.
I'm happy not just for our client,
but for a friend. There are great things
in store for him, and he is glad to have this
behind him. And then he added us,
at Breakfast Club AM, at AP,
at XXL. Well, listen,
we want the best for Kodak Black.
I don't like to see young brothers ruining their lives,
ruining the opportunities that are presented to them.
Kodak Black just has to straighten up and fly right.
Like, cut off some of the people that are around you that are causing you to be in these negative situations.
No guns, no drugs, none of that BS.
Stop acting like you're from Florida.
Matter of fact, that's what you might need to do.
You might need to move out of Florida.
Move to Atlanta or something.
You know what I mean?
Get out of Florida.
Now, Adrian Broner, boxer Adrian Broner, was supposed to have a press event in Brooklyn yesterday,
but it was canceled, and people believe that it was canceled because of his Tekashi 6ix9ine threat.
No.
Yes.
Why?
Why would they believe that?
Well, Showtime says it's bull crap.
They said they just had the cancel-y event.
It has nothing to do with Tekashi 6ix9ine.
Showtime didn't even know who Tekashi 6ix9ine was.
Exactly.
But let me tell you something.
You ain't going to come up in no Showtime event with the rah-rah.
Okay?
A white man in a suit would shoot you on sight if you came in there with the BS.
Stop it.
And also, Lauryn Hill, she's celebrating the 20th anniversary of Miss Education with a tour.
That's right.
She's going to a bunch of cities.
So if you want to get those tickets, I believe it's like a 20 or 30 city tour.
She's stopping in your Phillies,
your VAs, your Detroits,
Charlottes, Rileys,
Tampers, Miamis, Jacksonville,
Atlanta, Vegas,
and I didn't see no New York date as of yet.
Is she going to be on time for her shows?
She can't guarantee that.
I will say this, though, man.
Lauryn Hill is a testament to great music,
and I'll say why.
She put out one album, one full album, which was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill,
and then the Unplugged album, and she has been eating off that album.
So it's like, what's the point of putting out a whole bunch of music
if you can just put out one great project and just tour on that album for the rest of your life?
And just keep touring and people sampling your stuff.
I guess you're absolutely right.
I'm not mad at Lauryn.
Lauryn has lived a great existence.
And lastly, DJ Khaled.
Go ahead, do your thing.
DJ Khaled wants you to eat a salad.
That's right.
DJ Khaled is reportedly looking to trademark his son's name.
Now, you know his son has a deal with Jordan.
It's the Jordan Asad Collection.
He has all types of things from joggers to keychains.
But now it looks like Khaled is
trademarking his son and he wants to trademark
for everything. Keychains, perfumes,
cosmetics, clothing,
video games, suits, jewelry
and everything. Isn't Assad a
country though? I don't know.
Isn't Assad something else? I thought
Assad is like an Arabic name
though. I don't. Yeah, I think it's an Arabic name that means like a lion,
which would make sense because Khaled has a thing for lions.
Lion!
Yeah.
Can you trademark that?
I don't know.
Well, he's trying.
Yeah, I don't know, Khaled.
That's an Arabic name.
I don't know.
I don't know.
But anyway, he is definitely trying to do that,
and we'll see what happens with that.
And we wish Khaled and, of course, Assad and his wife or fiancée the best.
All right?
And that is your rumor report, all right?
Angela Yee is out, so I'll be holding down the rumor report.
I know it sucks because it sucks to me.
I hate doing it, but she's out.
Yes.
All right.
But up next is the People's Choice Mix.
You want to hear something?
800-585-1051.
Get your request in, and let's go.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
