And man deserved to be in the Game 7. 45 points. That's right. Tonight, the Knicks take on the Pacers in Indiana, so we'll see what happens with that. And last night, the Rangers, if you're a hockey fan, made it to the Eastern Conference Finals. And don't be any acting fake professional. You got paper and pen for no damn reason. Yo, I feel like you know when you start doing this, you think you're smart.

I know. I've been doing this for no reason. Doing this, putting your readers on. I got my readers on. You know you really think you're smart when you put them on the bottom of your nose right here and read up like this. Yo, you got three-pack glasses, man. If you're reading this, you cannot say, okay, who is this? Okay, no more.

Charlamagne sent that around. That's for all the biracial. Light-skinned people. That's right. But anyway. Shout out to Drake. All right, now, chaos was crazy yesterday at a House Oversight Committee hearing. I don't think we should call it chaos.

Okay. Well, we'll discuss it. Well, this is what happened. Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene mocked Jasmine Crockett yesterday and talked about her eyelashes during this committee. And this is what happened when she said this. Go ahead. I'd like to know if any of the Democrats on this committee are employing judge Mershon's daughter please tell me what that has to do with Mary Garland is she a porn star

do you do you know what we're here for you know we're here well you don't want talking about I think your fake eyelashes are messing up. Hold on, hold on. Order. Mr. Chairman, would you please regain order of your committee? I love it. Well, that was Marjorie Taylor Greene. That was Marjorie Taylor Greene. Ain't nothing that I knew she was about to get in that ass.

Well, now, Jasmine Crockett, when it was her turn to speak, well, she clapped back. I'm just curious, just to better understand your ruling, if someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody's bleach-blonde, bad-built, butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct? A what now? Chairman, I make a motion to strike those words. I don't think that's a part of it.

I'm trying to find clarification on what quality. Chairman, motion to strike those words. I have no idea what you just said. We're not going to do this. Look, you guys earlier literally just started We're not going to do this. Look, you guys earlier literally just... You just voted to do it. I did it first. I voted to do it.

Order. I'm trying to get clarification. Look it, calm down. Calm down. No, no, no, because this is what y'all do. So I'm trying to get clarification. Hey, Ms. Crockett, you're not recognized. Ms. Crockett.

I can't hear you with your yelling. Calm down. Don't tell me to calm down. Calm down. Because y'all talk noise and then you're out of control because if i come she's out of control you let marjorie cook let jasmine cook too yeah that's right i might get into politics a real big name that's just for that because no don't play where i like you can't ghost right for jasmine yeah send us some bars

i'd like to know what is the true definition of bad built? Oh man Is that like wide at the top bottom skinny at the bottom? What is bad sponge Bob Square at so it'd be in the same level is a big back Yes But you got some big back shapely women That's why I said it might be very shapely people But then you got just the big backs that are shaped like Spongebob. Off the top, who would be a bad bitch?

We're not doing that. Susie Sheeshaw or something like that. Who would be a bad bitch from Brooklyn? You tell us. Susie went to the Sheeshaw for a seat chance. Who would be a bad bitch from Brooklyn?

Who would be a bad bitch? Marjorie Taylor Greene is a bad bitch bitch for Brooklyn. I don't understand her from Brooklyn, though. But we need more democracy. Go ahead. Liz Moore, she confronts Gene Hamilton as well. That's right. Let's see.

You're the executive director for the America First Legal. That's correct. And America First Legal is a member of Project 2025, which is dedicated to creating the playbook for the next conservative administration and what it calls the project pillars. Correct. We are proud contributors to Project 2025. And are you familiar with Project 2025 mandate for leadership? In fact, I am. OK. And in fact, you wrote some of the sections of this mandate related to the doj correct sure did if you don't know what project 25 is you should google it uh it's terrifying but i would like to say more democrats like jasmine crockett less democrats like everyone

else we need people who are speaking to the urgency at a moment like jasmine crockett is we need more people who are willing to speak straight like that. Stop compromising yourself and thinking you have to tone down who you are to appease white supremacists. That's right. What we need is more bad built bitches from Brooklyn.

These stupid men. That's what they need. The streets say we need more bad bitch built from Brooklyn. They be having good credit, though. They be having good credit. They be having a lot of food in their refrigerator.

They can cook. That's right. They be telling you all the time'd be having a lot of food in their refrigerator. They can cook. That's right. They'd be ten cents crazy. Loan you a couple dollars when you need it. All right. Cash half a bad built body person, and I bet you get $150 fast. And it's the end of your cell phone, too. Oh, my goodness.

That is front page news. Next out, we'll tell you about Donald Trump. The judge actually gave him a day off to go to his son's graduation. So we'll break that down when we come back. Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051.

And Donnell Rawlins is guest hosting this morning. I'm not Donnell Rawlins. I'm the River Ninja from Donnell Land. Make it clear, man. Hey, shut up. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest. Wake up. Whether you're mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.

Hello, who's this? Hey, this is TJ. TJ, what's up? Get it off your chest, brother. So, yeah, I just want to chime in real quick on the comments you got making about the bad built, the bad body built woman.

Oh, Lord. Yo, you can't say it four times, bro. You got to hang up. Donnelly, don't offend it. You got a bad built woman at home? I ain't going to be able to do it. Absolutely not. But anyway, I just want to say that, you know, the reason she was able to speak like that and talk like that, being a member of Congress, this is what a Trump might start.

Remember David Garland when he speaks to his mind, he said what he wanted to say. Yes. He didn't want to do all along. He didn't want to, you know, say what they say behind closed doors. So, you know, Trump made it all possible. You know, y'all thinking that, you know, Donald Trump is going to be this or he's going to be that. Just look at what happened in Texas the other day.

What Governor Abbott did. What, when he pardoned the guy who killed the Black Lives Matter protesters? Absolutely. And Trump is going to do all that. Yep. So, you know, everybody's talking about, you know, we're going to get the Trump attorney. You know, he did that. Keep all that. Yep. So, you know, everybody's been talking about, you know, we're going to get in trouble because,

you know, he did that. Keep thinking that. I'll talk to you after the election. It's going crazy. Everybody get up in there. Yeah, absolutely. I understood a lot

of what he said. He's absolutely right what he said about Trump because I've been saying that for the longest. The language of politics is dead and it's because

of Donald Trump. You know what I mean? So, you know, people can speak truth to power if they want to. They can say what they want if they want to. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Republicans, Ben got that memo.

They say what they want, so them should say what they want. Hello, who's this? Hi, good morning. My name's Letitia. I'm calling from Toronto, Ontario. Hey, Letitia. Good morning.

But I'm looking at the desk and look at the demise of DJ's Envy's car show.

Then you said something was two inches long and then you said take that, take that. What? Why is it that you remember every joke to have something, and I'm going to use this as a medical term, something to do with a penis. I didn't say nothing about penis. Now, why did I say anything about penis? It's like you got an inside trigger joint. I didn't say nothing about penis.

Anything like you say dong, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding. Did you not say something was two inches long in your freestyle? I said the car. Oh. I said the car. I said the car. I said the car.

I think just thank you, Charlamagne, and I never say thank you for anything, but I love the level of respect you just showed me, and the continuous level of disrespect that the light-skinned ninja shows me over here is unbearable. When you get a chance, you guys gotta watch Ashley Madison on Netflix. It's a documentary. It's pretty damn good. What's it about? Ashley Madison was a site that they created for married people to cheat. And it was huge. It's time for Jess with the mess. No, you got to watch it.

She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. on the breakfast club she's a coach of shoes she was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see it's time to set it off it's a great documentary but okay well in darker news um news, Atlanta police arrested for shooting a Lyft driver. So Kobe Minor is the cop who killed his Lyft driver. Reginald, folks, we got the audio. On Wednesday around 1 a.m. at the intersection of South Fulton Parkway and Stonewall Tell Road, Union City police say Folks was giving Kobe Minor a Lyft ride home when Minor allegedly shot Folks. In arrest warrants, an officer describes Minor as saying he heard folks speaking on the phone in another language and asked to get out, but folks

did not stop. According to the warrant, Minor told police folks then turned around toward the back seat, at which time Minor shot him. 11 Alive learned Minor resigned from the Atlanta Police Department on Wednesday, the same day as his arrest. Atlanta police say that Minor was already on leave due to a separate case with a felony drug charge from December. I'm so confused. Yeah, so Kobe is a cop, and he had caught a Lyft, and he shot the Lyft driver. There's a twist to this story.

He told the police that Reginald was on the phone. Reginald is the driver. What was the driver? He was on the phone, and while he was on the phone, heinald is the driver. What was the driver? He was on the phone and that he heard, while he was on the phone, he heard what he thought was another voice in his ear. But he didn't say

what the voice said. And then he said he asked Reginald to let him out the car, but claimed the driver refused to let him out the car. So they stopped at a red light and he tried to open the door,

but the doors were locked and he just wouldn't let him out the car. That's what he said so he said this scared him so when reginald reached back into the back seat which i don't know why he's alleging that the driver reached back but he said kobe opened fire on him shot him three times and one shot was a fatal blow to the head kobe then escaped from a window so he couldn't open the door he actually went through the window and flagged down a nearby driver to call the police.

And the witness that Kobe flagged down told the police that Kobe told his driver, told her his driver was in a gay fraternity and that he was trying to recruit him. And he believed that he was being kidnapped. But Kobe initially told the police that he didn't know if the driver was gay or not, but he was in a gay fraternity. What is a gay fraternity. What? What is a gay fraternity? I knew you was going to say it. I knew you was going to have a post. Could you shut up? This is a serious situation.

I know of all the details. Yeah, yeah. But of all the details, it doesn't say here what a gay fraternity is. I don't think they was really worried about what the gay fraternity was more than the guy dying. So, Kobe Mata was arrested and charged with murder and aggravated assault but his family members said that he was a professional wrestler who did drive lift driving on the side

and they claimed that he was not in the gay fraternity and they have no idea what that story charlamagne this is a great time for you to chime in i need you to shut up i'm just saying what is the deal what is the case i'm trying to figure out what was happening here. Did he speak the language? Shut up. Somebody died, Donnell. Did he speak the language? I'm not talking about the death.

Did the police officer understand the guy's language and did he hear something like, hey, I got somebody in the backseat. We can kidnap. Like, what did he hear? This is what he heard. This is what he heard. Well, you want me to drop you off here? This is what he heard. This is what he heard. Well, you want me to drive you off here? That's what he heard. R.I.P. to the driver that lost his life.

But I'm pretty sure. So what did he say he heard in his ear? He didn't say. He didn't say. That's what he said. He was like, he didn't. All he heard was the driver was on the phone. And what he thought was, it was on the phone and what he thought was

it was in his head like he was hearing voices does he suffer from some type of mental illness does he deal with schizophrenia he actually looks

he actually looks that way but he had a recent charge of felony for like some drug stuff yeah so yeah man he was a cop sad

he probably gonna be charged with a hate crime maybe but he said he wasn't gay he said his family said he wasn't gay oh he wasn gonna be charged with a hate crime maybe but he said he wasn't gay he said his family said he wasn't gay oh he wasn't even oh no no no yeah his family confirmed that the lift driver was not the cop just made up this whole gay fraternity thing yep that's basically what happened because he told the police he couldn't confirm it whether the driver was gay or not but he was pretty sure that he was trying to recruit him the crazy thing is that we

find cops that have mental issues like that and we still give them a job yeah that's what did you do for that because you know i was going to be a dc cop and they give you a um a mental exam i wonder what the process is to become a police officer in lanta right now it must be like a a short list of qualifications what do you think some of those qualifications are down there what do you think the first one is the first one has been of a certain age. Okay. That's it. Young, old, mid?

Young, probably a certain age. I think the next thing will probably be no criminal past. What's education, too? Education. But this is the thing. The same thing. If you look at things, normally the most rogue cops come through a hiring period when the city was desperate for police. That's true. a hiring period when the city was desperate for police. And a lot of people, especially minorities,

they don't look at that job as a job like, I want to protect the community. It's like, I get benefits, I can retire, and so on. So most people that do that job don't go into it because that was their lifetime dream. It was because this was an option to go into jail and I didn't have any skill sets.

Hey yo son, this is Jess with the mess. Go ahead, Jess. You know what? Whenever I sound right, son, son, this is Jess with the mess. Go ahead, Jess. You know what? Whenever I sound right, son, I sound right. All that smart stuff. All right, Jess, go back with your mess. I'm out.

Remember I told y'all I was an African that don't want no kids? Yes. This is the reason why his burner boy is actual African and he was speaking on having children.

Why haven't I had kids yet, bro? Because I don't want to have kids yet. Like, have you seen my operation, bro? Have you seen my mom the way she loves me like have you seen my operation bro have you seen my mom the way she loves me have you seen my dad the way he loves me but and the way did you like but i know i can't give that to no one right now with the life i live you feel me so when i'm settled

when i'm a bit more so that i can be there for my children every day every single day every minute of every day i'm not having no kids that's just me so that's just a personal thing i feel like my kids deserve better than i got and i got both my mom and dad what type of nigerian is burnable you're 32 years old you're supposed to have eight kids by now that makes sense i respect that i respect that makes sense a 32 year old nigerian man supposed to have eight kids especially with the money you mean post to post to no usually do but sometimes do yeah should but he's on the road like he said he can't be there like he wants to be i think that's that's i wanted to have an educational input with this but obviously i'm not gonna do it

so i'll just say let's hear it no i i i don't want to you don't have anything to say that's why no i just i refuse to okay good job down there that's right. When we come back, we got front page news. Joe Biden is going to be speaking at Morehouse College this weekend, and we'll tell you what Morehouse is doing. We'll do that when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out The Breakfast Club.

NV Jess Hilarious. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Donnell Rawlings, The River Ninja. Thank you. He's co-hosting with us this morning. And let's get into some front page news. In sports last night, the Timberwolves beat the Nuggets 115-70. They tied the series 3-3. If you're into hockey, the Rangers make it to the Eastern Conference Finals.

And the Knicks play the Indiana Pacers in Indiana tonight. Bless you, man. Damn. Now, if you've been following the donald trump trial uh you know he's usually in court monday tuesday thursday and friday but today the judge granted him permission to not come to court today to go to his son's high school graduation so there will be no trial today for donald trump well you know that is a level of privilege that he has you know from being the former president of the united states of of America and from being a white man.

A rich white man in this country. Because you're not going to sit there and tell me that somebody if you were black or brown and you had all the charges that Donald Trump had and you was on trial in New York City, I highly doubt they was going to let you go attend your son's graduation. Stop all the court proceedings

to let this person attend their son's graduation. I don't think that would happen if he wasn't a former president who happened to be a rich white man. No, not going to happen. Now, Morehouse College, you know, Morehouse, this Sunday, Joe Biden, President Joe Biden is going to give the commencement speech. And yesterday, faculty voted to award Biden an honorary doctorate at Sunday's ceremony. It was a 50 to 38 vote. So not only will he be speaking, he will get an honorary doctorate.

Now, Morehouse, a lot of y'all been saying you didn't want Joe Biden speaking at your graduation. We're going to see if you bought it, bought it this weekend. Remember Miles Ross? Salute to the good brother, Miles Ross. Remember when we was at Clark Atlanta? Miles, you had a lot to say. You had a lot of poems and everything.

Shout out to my nephew, Deuce Sam Ross. He graduated from Morehouse three years ago. Miles didn't a lot to say. You had a lot of poems and everything. Shout out to my nephew, Doosan Rawls. He graduated from Morehouse about three years ago. Miles didn't even go to Clark. And didn't he sneak over? Yeah, he snuck in from Morehouse. Oh, yeah, yeah. He snuck in from Morehouse. Yeah.

Yeah, so. So I'm interested to see if they're going to protest. Because I'm going to tell you something. They're definitely going to protest. I'm going to be honest. There's people that I know who are Morehouse alumni. There's people I know who have said privately, they don't think

them kids gonna do nothing. Them kids gonna be quiet as church mouses when President Joe Biden came. They'll boo him when he starts speaking. Now, Thomas Jefferson University, they go viral because of their graduation. Now, this was the crazy thing. When I went to my daughter's graduation

this week, they had chat GPT actually saying all the kids' names. And I was like, well, why would they do that? Why not the dean? And this is the reason why, because of things like what happened at Thomas Jefferson University. Graduation ceremony for nursing students at Thomas Jefferson University.

Listen as the presenter struggles to read some of the names as the graduates went up to accept their diplomas. Is that name? Milena Zoboff-Kamp. Molly Elizabeth Kamp. Tom O'May. Thomas. Thomas. Thomas Michael. Okay.

So what happened? I saw this clip and I thought, is she like African or is she? These are regular like. Allison, Victoria, Molly, Thomas. Those are the names. She didn't practice. She didn't do no prepping.

You ain't got to practice for Allison. And Bruce, what? And Victoria, Elizabeth. Allison. Molly, Elizabeth. You don't have to practice for those names. She don't sound like she's American though. She sounds like she may be something else.

So they had the wrong person reading the names. Yes. And you should always practice. You should always do prep. I don't care how easy you think the names are if the names come across your desk read them beforehand before you step in front of uh that teleprompter or step in front of an audience to read alice and nicole bishop victoria elizabeth bruce don't read them so slow molly elizabeth cam you're messing them up and you're slowing them down like yo and okay and lastly uh somebody called her and get it off your chest and was talking about this. Texas Governor Greg Abbott pardons Army Sergeant convicted of murdering Black Lives Matters protester in 2020.

Lester, Governor Abbott says this pardon is justified by Texas's Stanier ground law and comes after the Board of Pardons and Paroles reviewed the case and voted unanimously in favor of the pardon. Last year, U.S. Army Sergeant Daniel Perry was found guilty of murdering Air Force veteran Garrett Foster during a July 2020 Black Lives Matter protest in Austin. Police say Foster was legally carrying a semi-automatic rifle when he approached an intersection where Perry was parked. Perry then shot Foster from the vehicle, later claiming self-defense. Tonight, the district attorney in the case is condemning the pardon, calling it a mockery of our legal system. It is, but you know, Republicans are not scared. Republicans are not cowards. That's why they have

the loyalty they have from their base, because they show up for their base, even when their base is dead wrong. Right now, as you know, you know people are advocating for maryland mosby you know to get a pardon from president joe biden and maryland mosby has been a strong supporter of president joe biden and vice president you know kamala harrison she's clearly you know dealing with an injustice you know that happened to her and she should get a pardon so imagine president President Biden not stepping up to give her a pardon for her being found guilty of something that's not even a crime.

Right. And she's the only person in America out of like 30,000 plus people who got found guilty of this. But this guy here committed a whole murder and got a pardon. And Governor Greg Abbott don't care who got what to say about it. And she's facing 40 years, right? She's facing 40 years

for mortgage fraud. You know what I'm saying? Like, come on. Alright, well, that is front page news. I'm on the record of the show. Niner was mad hyper, right? He couldn't sit down. He kept getting up and moving around. Then he put something in his nose and he just got calm.

I was just like, no, no, no. It's too early for that. Well, it's never too early for that. Is that the NAD? This is NAD. It's supposed to give you energy. It says NAD gives you energy. I mean, well, this is just a false story.

Don't we have anything else to talk about? No, that's it. This is what you're looking for. This is what 40-plus-year-old men should be talking about, okay? NAD. Yes. You know what NAD is. Well, explain to people what NAD is.

I don't want to explain. Let the doctor talk about it. It's just a supplement that boosts your energy levels and supports, like, neural development. It's supposed to be an anti-aging situation. That's right. It's supposed to give you energy and make you feel good. That's right. And some people subscribe to it.

There's different forms of it. You can get it through a shot. You can get it through, in what Charlamagne said, a nasal spray. But it's like the... The anal injections you talk about? And, yeah, that's what you just tried to do. And they got an IV for it, right? And it decreases symptoms of aging and cognitive decline. Exactly. Yes, that's what you just tried to do. And they got an IV for it, right? And it decreases symptoms of aging and cognitive decline.

Exactly. Yes, that's right. It's a new thing. That's right. But it did calm you down. Yep, I am going to be calmed down. Until the next break. Okay.

All right. We'll sweep. All right. When we come back, Rhapsody will be joining us. Man, listen. Big Tigger going to be here? Man, shut up, man. Rhapsody is one of the greatest lyricists

in the last decade. I don't know. I mean, I know, but I just... She's phenomenal. I know she's phenomenal. And we gonna play her record, too, featuring Erykah Badu, 3AM. Please don't cry.

Off her new album, Please Don't Cry. Erykah Badu has very charming vagina. All right, man. She has an instant. She sells it. Got no romance here. She sells it. She sells the smell of her vagina.

I'm not making this up. I know. I have some of the incense. You do? Yes. So you have smelled Erykah Badu's... No, I haven't. But I have.

I've smelled her. I've smelled her incense called Badu Poo Poo. I'm sorry, Jess. Can we go? It's not called that. It rhymes with tussy. That's The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Nyla is sitting in on this interview. We got a special guest in the building. We got the greatest lyricist in the world whose name is not Kendrick Lamar.

Rhapsody is him. What's up, girl? Good morning, good morning. New album, Please Don't Cry. How are you? Happy I'm happy Excited

Okay we gotta get into it first Before we start Talking about your album Who won? Kendrick or Drake? Come on bro Kendrick Easy call

It's so easy I can do it with my eyes closed Kendrick What causes an MC To win a rap battle? Cause you an MC MC So what causes an MC To win a rap battle? You gotta have strategy Righte, emcee. So what causes an emcee to win a rap battle?

You got to have strategy, right? So if it's like the art of war, you got to know who you're going against. And for this case in particular, the type of person that Kendrick is, you know, he's strategic. Like if he goes quiet, you should know that he's cooking. But you got to have the right beats. You know, your bar has got to be up. Your performance is a thing. Like i think all of those things matter and the thing that i like that he did he gave he cooked that boy so many different ways like i said he baked him he stir-fried him he grilled him like he

marinated a little bit like he gave you stories he gave you a banger he gave you the classic hip-hop bar joint it was however you want it i got it for you and you know he anything drake said he came back and was like he just didn't have room it's like when you boxing somebody on you can't get your arms can't do nothing yeah the reason i'm glad we started the conversation like this because i'm trying to set the stage for how dope rhapsody is for those who still don't know like your peers the MCs MCs hold you in high regard yeah that's why they do these type of records with you yeah and everybody says like you bring the best out of them I'm just you really do you know it's it's it's a beautiful

healthy competition I think your features that are on all your projects from Layla's Wisdom down to this latest one from like A Black Thought to Erykah Badu to working with Hip Boy. It's like the quality is just different, you know, when you tap into an album like this. It's, you know, I'm creating this about the music. Like the music is the biggest ego in the room. And I think when you approach it from that point of view, everybody's going to bring their best. You know, it makes it fun and exciting even on complexion like you you go in there like yo i gotta i gotta meet they level even with the wayne joint on the album i wrote my verse over yo i wrote my verse over that one i feel like for a hip-hop purist that's the best one on there i love that

record you wrote it over i did and i'm not afraid to say that at all like first time i ever did that um but i i sent it to him first and i was just approaching it like i was trying to grow and like i don't have to be so lyrical i want to do something that's easier for people to learn but it's not dumbed down like it's still me but it's not like just more relaxed yeah when i got his verse back i was like nah i gotta i gotta match his level of raw like i gotta match it so i was like nah i can't i can't get a people that what did he say when you rewrote it um he said i just sent it back to him i was like i rewrote it i said i took your flow and i just put my words to it i just want to let you know what you think he sent me fire emojis and stuff so that's it the

wild thing about this project is called Please Don't Cry. Yeah. But ironically, throughout the album, all you're doing is giving us stuff to cry about. Exactly.

Like, what is that about? That's the point. It was like the title got a real event. It's about, like, I was never one to show my emotion in public.

Or, you know, we grow up, men especially, what you're crying about but it's really about allowing yourself to be human why you should cry all the reasons you should cry don't cry just because you're sad cry because it's something so funny you laugh until you cry or you're so in love you know like or you're joyful or you're angry like I cry when I'm mad because if I don't I'm gonna say something or do something that I'm gonna regret so I'm mad because if I don't, I'm going to say something or do something that I'm going to regret.

So I'm just let it come out the tears. Like, allow yourself to just be human. I don't think we do that enough, especially in a day with social media is perfection. Perfection in your face all day. Like the highlight reel. But where's the raw stuff? So you got to remind people like you human. You're giving people permission to own their feelings.

Absolutely. people like you human like so you're giving people permission to own their feelings absolutely i know on the the first single that you released for the album asteroid you talked about how you almost wanted to step away from this completely it was a thought yeah that broke my heart yeah why it was i was just at a place like i was just seeing the music business and everything that was in front of me i was like yo i'm i feel like i'm getting tired. Like, there's no place for me. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't know if people care. And it's like, I could do music by myself. Like, I don't even have to play this game.

I want to get into the film world anyway. But I love it too much. I got too much purpose in it. I have to be the example. I want to be the example, rather. I get to be the example. So, you know, but it was a real thought. Like, man, what does it look like be the example so you know but it was a real thought like man what does

it look like in this space you know and you know hip-hop likes to aid you out i was you know as a woman it was just so many things going through my head and it's just like yo let me just pause and just really sit with it so i helped you get over that part of it um because i can imagine you don't feel that way now you better not you gotta you have to unplug from the matrix right and you look at it you like i feel this way because i'm trying to validate myself through all these other things that everybody like yo why don't why aren't you know i i don't why don't i get this award or why i'm i'm not in this space are these same spaces as other people and you figure out like yo whatever space is for me is for me and that's what it was like i had to validate myself and not look for anybody else

any other these false measurements to do it you know it's like what what are you in it for i was like damn i just really like to connect with people and make music to inspire people so do that anything else is a blessing yeah so you think a woman can take off and rap without a male cosign absolutely okay i think you know we have so many resources if you make great music one thing i've always told me it might take you longer but people can't deny it so it's kind of like either down for the marathon or not that's everybody like man woman it don't matter if the music good somebody gonna find it eventually i think you can like but you gotta you gotta make great music and still be on your brand and in marketing and you know all the little things

but i do think it's possible because i always think about what how dope would it would have been if like the way a drake embraces a sexy red kendrick would embrace you in that way. I just think that goes a long way sometimes. Yeah. No, it does. And he has. It's cool. You know. Complexion was an alley.

Big alley for me. And then a lot. I mean, to be honest. A lot of embracing from like, you know, older generations. I noticed a lot of people like to embrace people that can't touch them. Yes. You get what I'm saying? Yes.

Like they will embrace people that they know cannot touch them yeah beat them lyrically can't even i'm just gonna throw you in because your popularity you got the big platform right now you what they want to be like you're playing into what you you know money drugs all are cool so i'm gonna take you under my wing you know what I'm saying just to keep me in the game yep keep my name out there attached that's a real thing that's crazy

how did this album you said cause I've heard you say that this album has brought you the most peace you've ever seen how does an album

this raw and vulnerable bring you peace it brings me peace cause it's it's the most me I've ever been I'm so fearless now again like I'm

I'm Neo like unplugged from the matrix And living my reality so that's Like everybody's been asking me how you feel How you feel like the album's about to Come out and I tell them I'm at peace because I have no expectations I'm not thinking about I need to do this amount of numbers

Like yo what's good Do we need to do this I'm just like People like it or they don't yeah I made an album that I was happy with and I shared things that I wanted to share that were for me like so many albums I was shining a light on the world and this one it was like I need to shine a light on me and so to be able to like because I'm so private and I protect myself in that way and I held so much in I feel lighter I'm so confident and again I'm not afraid to just share I was afraid before because I was afraid of judgment what

people would think like you're not perfect you're not always the good girl you have disappointed yourself in some people but it's like it's okay we all do at some point all right we got more with Rhapsody when we come back don't don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Nyla is hanging with us this morning, and we're still kicking it with Rhapsody.

Nyla. So what pushed you to the point of wanting to live this much in your truth and be this transparent? I wanted to grow. I had gotten out of of relationship when i started this project and healing from that you know therapy um you realize it's never about the person it's about you so once you like start to sit and ask yourself these questions trying to figure out how to heal from the relationship the relationship is over with it's just like oh what are the mirrors in front of me what are the things about me that make me feel incomplete or all the things why do I act like this when this happens

so it was like an onion I was just peeling back peeling back peeling back and I was like crying at crying every time you peel back boy that 2020 year was crazy yeah a lot of solitude a lot of tears a lot of praying and I have a beautiful village so my homegirls would tell me like yo you your next phase is you gotta let people see you human party you gotta be vulnerable and so I love a good challenge it was hard uncomfortable it was not fun but the other side is so beautiful. So it's like that you really got to let yourself sit in the fire and burn. And some days I was like, man, am I going to feel like this forever? But now?

I was going to ask, like, which specific experience led to, like, the journey of self-exploration and self-acceptance? So it was a breakup. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like your My Life album. Yeah. You're wildin'. Okay. This is your My Life, okay? self-acceptance so it was a breakup yeah it's like you're my life album yeah you're my life okay making sense now yes yes a lot of my life all piece pieces of it your relationship was dope though like um i learned a lot in a relationship about even how to begin this journey you know they were back-to-back relationships. So I got out of a long one.

Had a little time and got in another one. The second one was just a rebound. No. Really? She had a little time. Why are you on for this? No, I'm just asking. I don't know.

I mean, yes, that happens, but that wasn't my experience. It was the relationship that impacted me the most. I wouldn't have become the person I am now without that relationship. So they gave me the starter pack tools to figure out. They say people come into your life for a reason, season, or lifetime. And there was definitely reason in this. I think it could be multiple things. But once it was like, now you're on your own you by yourself i was like oh

i gotta do the work work you know your album please don't cry you got a song about dementia yeah which is something that impacts so many of us like we all have a loved one that suffering from dementia i had dementia like what made you want to speak on that because it was it was such a big part of my life during that time um my aunt who's my mom's sister oldest sister helped raise me so it's like all my aunts like my second mom so when she got diagnosed it hit me like yo my grandmother had it but to sit with somebody and see it progress is just a big part of my life and it affect me so emotionally and it was just like i want to talk about it and because i do know so many people that go through it i was just everything i was feeling i was just like I want to talk about it and because I do know so many people that go through

it I was just everything I was feeling I was just putting on paper yeah you know and I think people need that that's just what it was like I think about her all the time you know every time I go home that's the first place I go sometimes before I stop at my mom and this last time I went I was there for like four hours we was talking laughing I think the last hour somebody came in the house and they was like you know who that is she was like I don't know I was like damn don't that hurt yeah yeah it's tough it's tough and you know I think about my cousins who that's her kids so it was just like you know a story that I wanted to share like if you want to know me this is what I go with this is what i go through when i'm having with my family your grandma got a mid-term yeah and

that's why i say that definitely hurts out that to relate to that that it does hurt yeah it's like hard hard disease go through like the mind goes and the memory yeah you know but same thing my family's the same way like i remember the first time like she was really doing things where I could really see it because I couldn't always see it before but I was I remember the day my other aunt came over and we was just talking about she just said she bust out laughing you know like talking to pictures or whatever um I like I was in my feelings she started laughing she's like girl we gotta laugh to keep from crying and that just changed me like so it's beautiful to see

like how the family takes care of her and we just whatever she on that day we just all a part of it you know what I'm saying that's good

and it makes it a little easier but yeah it's tough now is it true you credited Sanaa Lathan with helping you

make this album why finishing it she be rapping she don't rap but she's singing and i can sing like yeah yeah and when i work we worked on um the movie on the come up in 2021 and she brought me on to help with the music and um coach the actor but i got to see how much of a music fan,

especially hip-hop, she was because I'd send her demos and stuff. She'd tell me about the beat and what she liked, and I was like, you know what you're talking about. We talked about music a lot, but she was a big part of the healing process, for one, right? You know, healing goes in phases. So she had put me on to this course. It was called HowToBeMagnetic.com or whatever.

And I did the course, and it was so instrumental, like meditation. She helped me get through over the hump. Yeah. So we was in New York at a premiere, and she was always asking about the album. You know, we talked about pretty much everything. And she was like, you're not finished with it yet? Just like everybody on the internet. I was like, nah, I'm still not finished. She was like, what's taking so long? I was like you're not finished with it yet just like everybody on the internet I'm like nah I'm still not finished she was like what's taking so long I was like I don't know I said I feel like it's too gray like I see music in color sometimes I

don't know I think it's too gray it might be too sad like I'm just overthinking it I'm I could do that sometimes and so she was like play me some songs so um i played her like three or four songs and she was like it's not too sad it's exactly what people need finish the album and because she said that i was like okay and i finished the album other than i probably would still be recording right now i believe that i believe that yo man you i I do love having Felicia on the project. I thought that was such a great touch. First of all, say the full name. Rashad.

Yes. That's Felicia Rashad. Sorry. Okay. Y'all knew who I was talking about. No, we gotta spell it out. Felicia Rashad. Yes, we have Felicia Rashad Nerey.

And I love on the intro, the only way out is in. Do you even know who you are? I'm like, this project really takes you on a ride. But how did you connect with her? It was a lot easier than I thought. I think big. I'm going to always go big.

And all they can say is no. So I was just prepared. I was telling my manager, I was like, if she doesn't, we can't get her, then this person, this person, this person, back up. My manager got information on her manager and they just she sent her the request and at first they were like we want to hear some music

and i was busy at the time but before i could even send it it was maybe two days might have went by you ate felicia rashad yo she she was i'm too busy no i didn't hit it No no no You wildin' That's not what happened I was to get You know the song I'm trying to figure out What exactly to send her Cause the album Went all the way done

So I was like You know And I was moving around So It was maybe two days later I was traveling Something But I think like They asked for the music And then I think the next day she was just like yes

you know I don't know if they googled I don't know what happened but I was like my mouth was on the floor I was like what and so I wrote out the parts and sent them to her and she recorded it and she's so good like I just I wrote out my part and her part, and she did it on a voice memo in a hotel. But she's just so good. You can hear it. But I chose her for the very reason of what she represents to the black community, to us. I was watching The Matrix, and I was so intrigued by the relationship of Neo and the Oracle. You know, it was like that was the journey I was on and how she guided him.

So when we were in the studio and I was with Black Odyssey in Austin, Texas, they helped executive produce the album with S1. They were like, how are you going to put pieces together? And that's what I thought of. And she was the only voice that I heard. We got more with Rhapsody when we come back. Don't move, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, we are The Breakfast Club. We have Nyla with us this morning and we're still kicking it with Rhapsody. Charlamagne. I saw you tweet, there's no such thing as female hip-hop. Yeah, I don't like that. What is that? Elaborate on that a little bit.

Yeah, it's just hip-hop. They try to rebuttal me like there are women who make songs specifically for women that's called an audience sir but what she does is hip-hop yeah like when you when you label something labels are just there to separate us so if you labeling it female hip-hop and you put it in a category where this is just for females and you're looking at it a certain way it's like no they do hip-hop and you put it in a category where this is just for females and you looking at it a

certain way it's like no they do hip-hop they rap but their audience may be mostly women you know and and i just hate the separation and labels it's already hard for us it's just another form of sexism yeah i don't make female hip-hop i rap for everybody. You get it or you don't. And my, you know, my fan base shows that I got men, women, older people, younger people. It's just, that's what it is. So it's like, we not about to do that. And I'm going to advocate for it. What prompted you to address questions about your sexuality on the stand tall record?

Because it would be conversations throughout the years of my career and so it was like things that i internalized to like the way that i dress or whatever people assume things about you or because i i you have you don't know who i've been in relationship i'm private so they just assume who you are so it's just like let me just address it head on then you know you hear it from me you said the judgment's on me they wondering if i'm gonna eat the coochie fan all because i choose the style and sneakers and some baggy pants used to make me aggie want to black out like the aggie fan well i heard that line i thought about nila of course you did of course you did same judgment that's what i'm yo i'll be like it's like if you dress like this oh you do not like men because you're not catering to men what we think or what we think

men want to be catered to and now the conversation i'll be seeing men having it like yo we miss having some imagination about it do you hear me that's why i'm like yo y'all gonna show us everything so listen to the man if all with these new you know newer brands of women are trying to appeal to men all the time. Listen to them. They don't always want to get on line at CX and Aerial and misplace belly buttons and all that. They don't want to see that all the time.

I'd rather not even see your stomach if you don't have a belly button right in front of you. What are you talking about? I come from Nas. When Nas is showing three-fourths of a cloth never showing your stuff or a boo. That one's fly to me. Yeah. Yo.

You fly as hell. Thank you. I'm going to affirm that to you. Yeah. And yeah, it's not even just in music. I hear women in the business, they say, sometimes I cover up just so I can go in the meeting and we can have a straight on meeting. I ain't about to do that.

But yeah, it's just like everything is a full display. Yo, I like to have you guessing. You know, the days we do want to pop out, they be like, damn. Damn, that's not good. Love that reaction. And it's not comfortable. I like to be comfortable.

I'm just being real with you. Them heels hurt my feet. I'm very excited about your Me too Packaging Your promotion is crazy Yes Thank you

Thank you You always got a creative way To appeal to your fans Like when she does Pass the Uggs And she We always have your music She always samples a song

Like she'll tell us Like little creative ways That you be like Like that one time Yeah Oh the t-shirt Yeah the t-shirt I'm like okay

that's creative that's dope that's how you really know who you connected to as well like your fans are really loyal to you it's one of my favorite things about putting out an album

like the music is of course but then it's like alright that part is fun like how are you going to roll this out creatively with this one

I watched the movie Air I don't know if you've seen it no it's about Michael Jordan yeah it's about Nike and Michael Jordan I'm sorry With this one, I watched the movie Air. I don't know if you've seen it. No. It's about Nike and Michael Jordan. I was so inspired by the branding and marketing of it. It was just like, it ain't about the shoe. It's about the person wearing the shoe. I called the team.

I was like, I want to roll this out like a Nike ad for a shoe, but with the album. How are we going to do that? We really wanted, again, I was in the place of like free. Like I'm not worried about billboard or nothing like that. It's just like, let's just focus on the fan base. So, you know, we just made them a part of it. And we just told the story from that way, just being organic. And the ideas were just flowing.

Yeah. My mind worked like that. I can't explain it, but yeah. That's why you want to be in film too. I can just flowing. Yeah. My mind works like that. I can't explain it, but yeah. I'm glad people. That's why you want to be in film too. I can see that. Yeah. Thank you.

And I just noticed this. We eat each other. That's your label? Yeah. I didn't know. I was just noticing. I wasn't ready to announce it. Oh.

Okay. I was like, yeah. And I see that we eat each other, Jamla and Roc Nation. I'm like oh yeah oh that's fire so you got artists too yeah

she not ready that's fire you made it on the album yeah but it's okay it's okay we here now

And it's like you leave the nest many times over in life. You know, you get 18, leave the home, you leave the nest. And I feel like you do it many times over. So, you know, I told Guru and I was like, I think it's time for me, you know, to try this on my own.

That was Mefaman and All I Need. That was my wedding song. I was thinking that a Nas line from You Won't See Me Tonight with Aaliyah when he said a baggy sweatsuit's mystery was underneath them.

Your news is real. Lawrence Jessica Robin Moore. Jets don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. She don't spare nobody.

Worldwide Jets. Worldwide Mets. On The Breakfast Club. She's a culture shift. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it off. So, Florida, Florida news. This is why I was going to give you this guy for donkey.

I feel like I need to tickle you. Let's go, Jeff. Let's go. This guy for donkey. Let's go. Because I know you say the craziest people come out of. The Bronx and all of Florida. Yep.

So, this Florida school principal arrested for abusing a child. Dante Akeem Prophet. He's the principal. He was the principal at Destiny Leadership Academy in Ocala, Florida, and he was arrested on charges. The shocking 3-minute, 13-second clip appears to show Dante Akeem Prophet fighting to restrain a young child on May 10th. The child thrashing to get away. At one point, the 33-year-old principal pins the child to the ground between his legs. According to the Marion County Sheriff's Office, the principal didn't know he was being recorded.

Accused of putting the child in a chokehold, using a charging cable to strike him, and slapping his face. But it's not his first time being charged with a felony relating to a child. Proffitt was arrested in May 2019 court records show he was accused of sexually molesting a child who he met while working as a camp counselor in 2017 well no he shouldn't be a principal he needed a beat yeah when daddy a big brother it makes no sense how you know cuz people the reporters were calling X high even got the job to be a principal at a school after a charge like that.

And he didn't respond. That's because they didn't do no background check. They didn't do no homework. I know they didn't. But the video of the incident with him and the little boy, it's only about a three-minute clip. It's on Twitter. Y'all want to go see it. But he was in the room over 40 minutes with the child.

Wow. Yep. And in the video, he can be seen hitting the child with the charging cable so hard that the little boy fell to the floor He's 13. He was under 13 And his brother that went to go beat up Y'all need to pull up at that school and jump on that principle. He needed that me. Yep Simple as that. Yep, and um upon the scene of arrest Dante The cop was asking him like, you know, you know, it was it was used being recorded, right?

He was like like I was like it was you know you know it was it was you was being recorded right he was like like i was like it was you know what i'm saying and then he told the the cops that he was trying to restrain the little boy from hurting himself that's not what he was doing at one point the little boy was like he just like he was so tired of fighting him you can literally see like he's not giving any energy and a guy still choking him still it was who loves this little boy this little boy was not brought here by the store exactly how was he able to be in a room for over 40 minutes with this little boy like by himself and and it's being recorded you know what i mean so now he was fired from the school and he's currently being held without bail how you showing up don now how you showing up with

a switch for the for the teacher the principal yeah that's it yep and then um uh i'll do all the things master man said oh in the in the in the yeah yeah okay lord next ozempic babies so um doctors are realizing that even though ozempic and other weight loss drugs help with obesity it also seems to be helping with other things go to the report it's thought that these injectable weight loss medications like Wagovi or Ozempic or Zepbound and Manjaro are affecting the efficacy and absorption of oral contraceptive medications.

And they're also improving fertility in women with PCOS. And so that's why I have a 53-year-old patient who is now pregnant with twins. Wow. Women are reportedly becoming more fertile um and researchers are finding that these drugs are not only seeming to block effects of some birth control but it also helps to subside symptoms of pcos which is very very serious one woman said that she was struggling to get pregnant for years um and she was told that she most likely would never

be able to have kids due to her severe PCOS. But she started taking some of the weight loss drugs specifically to lose weight, but ended up getting pregnant after two months. You want to see 60-year-old pregnant now? 53, yeah. 53, geez. You can get pregnant at 60? I don't know if you can get pregnant at 60. 53.

I didn't think you could get pregnant at 53. Yeah, but she did. Thanks to the, you know, all credited to the weight loss drugs transmission still working at 60 53 but i wonder how's the baby at 57 more years on she's not there no i said 60 she corrected me said 53 but i wonder how the baby is at 53 come on with a beer okay so that's another thing drugs like ozempic and manjaro and other weight loss drugs aren't recommended for women who are actively pregnant. So the fact that if you're on it for so little time, you can get pregnant. People are saying now, what are the long-term effects of the baby?

How does it affect the baby? And then also, how does it affect the mother as well? That's what I've been thinking about when I've been hearing about older women being pregnant. I've been thinking about their health. Because we already know the maternal death rate is very high especially among black women because you know and you be thinking like that you will be 60 70 when the baby's only 10 15 well you're 60 when it when a baby's 10 but the problem is is that shame old daddies to have a lot of like don't have side effects though when it when it's that shot I did it

don't get mad at me I shot my shot in the head. Don't get mad at me. I shot my shot in the head. Not how this first shot at 62. Wow. Congrats. I'm a bomb for that. And back to Jess for the best. Okay, so Faith Evans disappointed the fans.

So there was a video circulating of her performance. And the fan who shared it wasn't really happy with her performance. Dang. performance. Damn. God damn. She sound like a female Eddie Kane Jr. Dang. But we all know that Faith can sing. A lot of the comments were going against her.

Yeah, she seemed to have lost her voice. We don't know if she was sick. But this is what got, this had me thinking, when y'all get mad at these performers that do reschedule or cancel, this type of stuff, you know, could be going on.

You know what I'm saying? That's the other side of it. They get mad. You're damned if you're damned if you don't. You're saying that no show is better than a bad show is what you're saying. No, I'm just, I mean. Yeah, no show is better than a bad show. She could have bought me to the, I'm just, I mean. Yeah, no show is better than a bad show.

She could have bought me to the TV track, though. I mean, that's what you're saying. But I'm just saying, though, like, she, I'm not really giving her flack. I did give Alicia Keys flack, but it don't matter. We know Faith can sing, right? Yeah, she can sing. And she went out there, she was struggling, she ain't run off stage, whatever, whatever. But the comments would be bad either way.

Now, if she'd have canceled because she lost her voice, they would have been saying something else. Like when Anita Baker just didn't show up. And the girl was like, oh, Anita ball-headed ass. Like, what? She could have. I didn't hear that. She said that like five times. Like, Anita ball-headed ass canceled the show.

I can't wait to see her ball-headed. Like, she kept on saying it. But you can understand why people are mad. They pay for flights. They pay for hotels. They get all ready. And then, bing. But I don't understand why she didn't do a TV track.

Because she's OG. OG is going to be using TV tracks like that. But if your voice is gone, you might as well do it, though. Furthermore, all you people in the audience should have been singing the song for her. There you go. Okay? Frank, shout out to Frankie Beverly and Maze. Because people go to that.

That's right. They know Frankie. That's right. Frankie be like, just be fine. And then he go to his green room. You make me happy. And everybody, it's just the nostalgia Of going to that

And just being a part Of that whole culture So give him a break And by the way We've been singing it So much for Frankie We thought he was saying You make me happy

What'd he say? You made me happy That whole song Is a diss song Oh wow That's a diss record You made me happy That whole song is about

how he can't stand that girl no more. Well, even Beyonce did it wrong then when she came out with it because she said, You make me happy. She wrong, too. It's You made me happy. That's what people in the industry say.

You make me happy. You make me happy. If you're in the industry, you get that joke. I got this new show. You make me happy. Donkey of the Day is going to Marjorie Taylor Greene. I got a new show to make me happy Donkey today is going to Marjorie Taylor Greene

black man now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage uh man yesterday was a really bad day for him and this is what he did and so we are in a state of emergency okay white supremacist violence is it always has been the number one threat to our society but i'm also very proud that my wife is white. To the breakfast club, bitches! Alright, Tony, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Donkey of the day for Friday, May 17th goes to Marjorie Taylor Greene and all the hypocrites in the Republican Party who can dish it but can't take it, okay? Listen, do yourself the biggest favor and go find a video of this House Oversight Committee meeting

that happened last night. See, the meeting was supposed to be about a resolution recommending attorney general merrick garland be held in contempt of congress but it quickly turned into aoc and jasmine crockett having to defend themselves against the insults from that bully named marjorie taylor green all jasmine did was ask a simple question and marjorie taylor green decided to insult her for no reason let's listen i'd like to know if any of the democrats on this committee are employing uh judge mershon's daughter please tell me what that has to do with mary garland is she a porn star oh goldman that's right he's advising okay he's advising who what do you do you know what we're here for you know

we're here i don't know if you know what you're here for? You know we're here about... I don't think you know what you're here for. Well, you're the one talking about... I think your fake eyelashes are messing up with you. No, I ain't nothing... Hold on, hold on. Order, Mr. Chairman. That's beneath even your... Order of your committee.

Now, was that necessary? Was it necessary for Marjorie Taylor Greene to respond to a simple question from Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett like that? Of course it wasn't necessary, but I like it. And I like how AOC came to the defense of Marjorie Taylor Greene. But she didn't go far enough. Let's listen. Mr., I do have a point of order, and I would like to move to take down Ms. Greene's words.

That is absolutely unacceptable. How dare you attack the physical appearance of another person. Are your feelings hurt? Move her words down. Oh, girl, baby girl. Oh, really? Don't even play, baby girl. We are going to move and we're going to take your words down.

I second that motion. See, I tell you all the time that the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. You almost saw the crazy from the BX come out of AOC, but she held back. I didn't like that. I'm sick of Democrats still trying to play the game of politics. I'm sick of Democrats mincing words and shrinking when the white supremacists and the Democratic Party try to play them. Marjorie told you, AOC, that you don't have the intelligence for a debate.

We'll get to that. But that right there was the green light to give her everything she was asking for. And then Marjorie Taylor Greene, she's a top-tier a top tier troll grade a agitator princess of pissing people off and she said one simple line that will make you want to swing on a person when they say it and that's all your feelings hurt see the reason that line makes you want to swing on a person is because that person is admitting that their intention is to hurt your feelings you could not even be bothered by a person's comment you just responding like aoc was to tell marjorie taylor green that's not acceptable and she replies are your feelings hurt you asking me that because your intention was to hurt my feelings so since that's

your intention since you want a limbo let's go to howdy okay marjorie taylor green thought she was cooking marjorie taylor green thought her little eyelash comment cut deep all right she said that because she was intending to hurt jasmine crockett's feelings well damn it jasmine crockett decided to rip up that useless play that michelle obama drew up years ago and that play is when they go low we go high no that was that was 2016 that's a lifetime ago that quote is like phil jackson's triangle offense and all it's doing is getting a bunch of democrats killed in 2024 it don't work no more. When they go low, you got to go to the floor with them,

and sometimes you got to take it to hell. Jasmine Crockett didn't take it to hell, but she damn sure decided to get on the floor and break dance with her. Let's listen. Ms. Crockett. I'm just curious, just to better understand your ruling, if someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody's bleach-blind, bad-built, butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities correct what now chairman I make a motion to strike those words I don't think that's a we're not gonna

we're not gonna do this, you guys earlier literally just voted to do it. I did it first, so you voted to do it. Order, order. I'm trying to get clarification. Look it, calm down. Calm down. No, no, no, because this is what y'all do. So I'm trying to get clarification. I can't hear you with your yelling. Calm down.

Don't tell me to calm down because y'all talk noise and then you can't take it. You're out of control. If I comment about her, y'all gonna have a problem. Round of applause for Jasmine Crockett. Absolutely. We need all that energy from now until forever. I've been telling you on this radio, thanks to Donald Trump, the language of politics is dead.

And Republicans say what they want, when they want. And they are more sincere about their lies than Democrats are about their truth. You know why? Because Democrats are lying. They're walking around with smiles on their faces, trying to take the high road, trying to say the right things, when the reality is they all want to talk like Jasmine Crockett is talking right there. But for whatever reason, they'd be scared, too. We need more Democrats like Jasmine Crockett and less Democrats like everybody else. No more scary, weak, docile Democrats scared to say what's on their mind now you saw the hypocrisy in real time in this situation democrats repeatedly demanded for green's words to be struck

from the record eventually congressman uh comber ruled that green's insult of crockett did not violate house rules against engaging in personality so basically it's cool when they do it but when jasmine did it everybody's like calm down stop okay stop all right it's a problem now f all that the language of politics is dead jasmine pop yours okay all y'all young democrats pop yours as you see when you do you energize the culture because if y'all don't care then why should we now marjorie in true gangster Republican fashion refused to apologize. Do we have that? Let's listen. Every single time we hold a committee hearing, an oversight committee, the Democrats attack President Trump repeatedly.

Doesn't matter what the issue is. Doesn't matter what the topic is. They can't produce facts. They can't produce anything to make their arguments. They make it about personal character attacks on the former president of the United States and our Republican presidential candidate. Also, members of this committee attack me repeatedly over and over and over again. But they're offended when I say something back. And I will not apologize for my words. And I will not change them and i will not uh tolerate

being treated this way constantly on this committee and in other committees i respect it apologize for what i said what i said and i meant it okay i don't want her apologizing for what she says is her truth because i don't want jasmine and other democrats to have to apologize for theirs when they speak it we need everybody shooting we need everybody speaking their mind do you understand the world we live in do you understand the culture if you do then you will know why speaking truth to power is more important now than ever before now if you need help we got you okay jess hilarious said earlier that this made her want to be in politics i showed her who marjorie taylor green was because i wanted to know how she would handle this if she was in this situation now just let's let's role play a little

bit you a member of congress right you hear jasmine say you bleach blonde bad built butch body how you coming to your your girl's defense against marjorie taylor green she did good i don't think she did enough i'm looking at this woman and They also called her baby girl. You don't call somebody baby girl who looks like the male version of Owen Wilson. She looked like she went to Dr. Miami and said, give me the Caitlyn Jenner. It's crazy.

She could even fix something off the say. Something like that with no lips. She built upside down. She looked like Paul from Tekken. I never seen her ass go in reverse. No. Can I give a shout out? Oh my God, no.

She looked like Shawn Wayans from White Chicks. She looked like Shawn Wayans from White Chicks. Because he was the strongest looking one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She looked pretty strong. She is built like if Jay-Z and the Deltas threw up their sign, they would throw it up upside down. She is built like that. She's like a wrestler.

That's right. We talking about a baby girl. Listen, Democrats, stop being afraid upside down. Oh, she is built like that. She's like a wrestler. That's right. Like, what are you talking about? Baby girl. Listen, Democrats, stop being afraid to shoot. This is why we call y'all cowards. Salute to Jasmine Crockett for not being scared.

Thank you for that donkey today. When we come back, 800-585-1051. Donnell Rawlers did say something that was pretty bright this morning. He was talking about people that love to be in toxic relationships. Some people do not function unless they're in

a toxic relationship. He's talking about himself. Yeah, so that's the question. 800- 585-1051. Do you love to be in a toxic relationship? Let's discuss why. What's that hashtag you be using? Co-parenting with a narcissist. That's right. He's speaking for himself. No, but I'm saying I'm in a different place now.

We'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got the River Ninja. Thank you. Donnell Rawlins here. And he came up with this topic, 800-585-1051. There's people out there that just need to be and love to be in a toxic relationship. Project Donnell. How do you talk about yourself?

I'm not talking about myself but i mean i've been in relationships where i'm like this person is not happy unless they're upset about something some people sometimes function better in a relationship when they're mad about something and they have to constantly constantly find and figure out things be mad at so they can be happy that's not even just in uh relationships where you know you boyfriend girlfriend girlfriend, husband, wife. There's just certain people out there who just love toxicity. They just love drama.

They just love causing problems, causing issues. You could be minding your business, having a good day, and they can't wait to send you a video and be talking negative about it or send you a person's picture and be talking negative about it. My son, I call him

my therapist now. I asked him, I said, this is how smart he is. I said, what do you do when somebody, all you want to do is show love, make people laugh, have a good time, and they still come with negative energy. And my son told me, he said, Dad, don't meet them with equal aggressions.

Me being a 50 plus man did not figure out my 8 year old son said that's what you're supposed to do. Not meet people with equal aggressions. Me being a 50 plus man did not figure out my eight year old son said, that's what you're supposed to do. Not meet people with equal aggression. So I said, I can't wait to have a conversation with your mother so I can use the same phrase. I'm not going to meet you with equal aggression. But you know what? Some people are in toxic relationships for other reasons, even though the relationship is toxic. Like you said, the sex is so great that they'll pass the toxicity because they love the sex.

Right. Is that your situation that you're talking about? No, I'm not going to go into that. We're not going to make this personal. I have this professional voice for a reason. You came in here talking about it this morning. No, what I said was like you were desperate for a topic. No.

You needed something to talk about. Oh, we was fine. You were sick of talking about medical penises. So I said, hey, why don't we talk about something else? Jess, what about you? I'm not toxic. You've been toxic. Yes, I have.

But I am reformed. But no, even when I was, it was just, I wasn't ever that damn level of toxic. Like, what y'all saying is. You know what this is, Jess? Jess, you've cut ties before. What you saying is. This is the story. You was in Rome. You was in Rome. You beat up the girl in Rome house. saying is you know what this is just yes you've cut ties before you broke when this is the but that was a reason for all of that i'm not like justifying that it was right but

y'all just saying like yo people just can't be happy unless they're unhappy and sometimes when people are unhappy unless they have toxicity and their life. We know those kind of people. Yeah, we know those kind of people right now. Yeah, we do. I've never been that type of person. Jess said I wasn't that toxic. Yeah, it's different levels. Jess went to jail. It's different levels. I didn't go to jail because I just walked in and said, arrest me. Yeah, Jess is saying, I'm happy, but don't piss me off.

You know what she sounds like? She sounds like my Instagram reel. What are you talking about? What? When you talk about stuff like this, then you start on your reels, it'll be like this. A narcissistic woman is one who, you sound like everything they describe when they talk about this.

She will never hold accountability. She always blames somebody else. I'm telling you, you got to turn your phone off when you talk about somebody toxic because they done ruined your day. Let's go to the phone lines. We have Eli on the phone. Eli, good morning.

wasn't a little intoxicated and that's the reason why i was acting out but i wasn't and then y'all went home and had the best sex y'all ever had then y'all went home and had the best sex y'all ever had yes the hell we did and that's why toxic relationship is always going to work. Why should Jesus come back then? And then next, he called her. He called her ex and went to go see her. He said he had that slavery day. He ain't never coming soon.

He ain't coming, Charlemagne. He ain't coming. Have a blessed morning, man. Why would Jesus come back? Seriously. Did you hear what she said? She said, Jesus ain't come back during slavery days, but he ain't coming back now. That's a valid point.

You guys were desperate for a topic and i said i have something creative to talk about and what i said is some people are not happy unless they are in a toxic

I'm happy. Okay. Where are you from? I think she's from the Bronx. Where are you from, Mimi? From Queens. Oh, damn. When did you realize toxicity wasn't for you, boo?

Why you say that? Because you just said it. You just said that you don't do it no more. So when did you realize toxicity wasn't for you? I had to open up my eyes because I didn't want to stop by me as Dan. So I left, and I never came back, and I'm not returning to him. I got a new man I'm in love with. I've been with him for two years, and everything is good.

All right, Mimi. Thank you. Well, have a great day. Don't make me sound like the lady with the voice box. Oh, that's wrong. Don't make me sound like that. She sound like the Crypt Keeper. Damn.

So I'm pretty excited about it You've been on a world tour I've seen you in Vegas You've been traveling Moving around That's why you sick now

That's why you got a little cold Low key actually I'm not sick But I do have Nasal lulls Situation What? It's rough

He's sitting right next to me No see that's why I gave you a church hug This morning I ain't go full on I ain't go full on That legacy of resilience Below a fire though

You like it? That's fresh Thank you Don't sneeze on that Don't sneeze on it. That legacy of resilience for Lord Fire though. You like it? That's fresh. Thank you. Don't sneeze on that. Don't sneeze on it. This is one of my favorites. It's just easy, comfortable,

simple. But all right, let's get into the music this week. I'm going to start with Big X The Plug who's out of Texas. I've been a big fan of him,

but he just started his own label. Signed a couple of his partners. So we got Young Hood and Rosema with Meet the Sixers. I didn't know where it was going. I like, yo, it actually sounded like an intro to like The Chi or something like that.

It's like soundtrack music. It does. That's what's up. I like it. I didn't know where it was going with the Bad Man with Jamma sample at first. You were nervous? It got there. Yeah, it got there.

He always does a lot of soulful samples. Like my favorite one is he did Whip It by the Gap Band. Ooh, Whip It. I remember that song. Yeah. I mean, of course I remember the Gap Band. I remember the remix that he did. Yeah, he's good at that.

But shout out to Texas with Big X. Next, I got... He's not making any money, though, with all them samples. Oh, you know, you go on the road. You go on tour. You go to Gates and perform. He tour a lot. You know, in Texas, you don't even got to leave Texas.

Right. There's so many parts of damn Texas, right? But, all right, next we got Megan Thee Stallion with BOA. Wah, wah, wah, wah. It was an anime-inspired music video. Why she throwing shots at Drake, yo? Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. That is so much.

Who's with you? I don't know. Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. Now, there's so many quotables in that record. It's ridiculous. But by the way, Drake took shots at her first, even though I don't think that has anything to do with Drake. Anyway, the music video is fire. If you guys haven't checked it out, it's anime inspired. And I really do hope Meg gets her own anime from this.

If anybody out there is into anime, because she's big in that world. And I think it would be dope just to have a black presence and blurred culture okay then the last record is going to be off of gunna's new project it's called on one tonight that boy can make some music can't yeah yeah i was in the lane last week and that's what you heard from everybody called gunna album really interesting people to sell 65 000 uh 65 000 this week that's what i'm saying that's why you can't listen to the internet the internet will have you

thinking that people are off people and it's just not true it's just stupid well a lot of people not messing with them though still in the industry but not a fan

in the industry but you said in Atlanta that's why I think it would be a problem nah nah nah I don't know why why would people have a problem with Gunna

you have heard nothing from Young Thug Young Thug's daddy even said y'all don't know what the hell y'all talking about so why you ain't heard nobody from Thug's actual family speak out with Gunna. You have heard nothing from Young Thug. Young Thug's daddy even said y'all don't know what the hell y'all talking about. So why? You ain't heard nobody

from Thug's actual family speak out against Gunna. So why do people care? Why is the internet just jumping to conclusions? That's true. Who knows? Knock it off.

You know they be posting videos like nobody vibing to Gunna and it be like nobody in the party. They be posting stuff like that. Big line. And he look bit good now.

So they be big line. No, it's like a Gunna bit good now. So, they be big line. No, it's like a gunner 2.0. Same way we got a Gucci 2.0. Yes. They be gunner 2.0. A whole different gunner. You know what I'm saying? But, yes, if you guys are rocking with the vibes,
