So happy birthday to LL It's also slick Rick's birthday. Oh another goat. That's right. Wow. That's the Breakfast Club, good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now with some sports.
Starting point is 00:03:54 Last night, NFL footballer Rams beat the Vikings 27-9. So- That was an upset. Yep, the Rams move on. Also, we gotta say Tyson Fury announced that he's retiring from boxing. You know, he will retire at 34-2 and one tie. 24 knockouts.
Starting point is 00:04:10 I don't think we've taken into consideration how much Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury took out of each other when they fought those three times. I mean, really, neither one of them has been, neither one of them has really been the same since those three wars that they fought. That's right. But salute to that warrior, Tyson Fury.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Absolutely. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, Envy, Charlemagne and Jess. Y'all doing all right? Yes, ma'am. All right. Let's kick things off this morning talking international affairs. In the last days as president, Biden was reflecting on his work in foreign policy, and he spoke
Starting point is 00:04:42 about how the Israel Hamas ceasefire deal is finally on the horizon after working with Prime Minister Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Egyptian President El Sisi and the Amir of Qatar to seal the agreement. He also bragged about his work to free Americans detained abroad. Let's hear more from President Biden. I've said many times, we're at an inflection point. The post-Cold War period is over. A new era has begun. And the war between Israel and Hamas, we're in the brink of a proposal that I laid out in detail months ago, finally coming to fruition. We brought home more than 75 Americans by last count. And some cases it took months, even years of effort.
Starting point is 00:05:32 And when it comes to go ahead. Now, I'm happy to hear that would have really helped politically if, you know, he would have got this done much before the election, but here we are. Yeah. Well, and when it comes to Russia's war in Ukraine, Biden added that US has delivered aid and garnered the support of 50 other nations to support the assistance in Ukraine, adding that there is more to do. Now, meanwhile, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, he also says a breakthrough in ceasefire
Starting point is 00:05:56 talks is on the horizon. The Secretary of State cautioned that Mohammed Sinwar could pull his support at any moment, though. He added that without going into detail that the deals framework is the same as President Biden presented last May, which included hostage release, hostages released, a halt in fighting and an influx in humanitarian assistance. Let's hear those comments from Secretary of State Antony Blinken. We've been working on negotiating the final details, everything that has to go into implementation
Starting point is 00:06:23 and time and again, that's been delayed or derailed by some events. But now we're at a point, as I said, where we are closer than we've ever been. The ball is in Hamas' court, but it's very close. And we are very hopeful that we get it over the finish line, finally, after all this time. Yeah, so blink it. You know, that was Morgan, when it comes to the Israel and Hamas ceasefire, I bet Trump is gonna get all the credit for it because I can't help but wonder how much Trump's saying
Starting point is 00:06:49 all hell is going to break loose if the hostages don't return by the time he takes office. I wonder how much that helped to speed up the situation. That had to play a part in it. Yeah, actually, ironically enough, it has been said that Trump adding that he wants to see the deal before January 20th was supposedly instrumental in the recent progress. So Blinken actually noted that. Oh wow.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Which is yeah, he said that now Trump's choice for president-elect, Trump's choice for Middle East envoy Steve Wittkopf has been terrible, terrible partner in this whole deal, but he is making it clear that Trump wanting to see the deal before January 20th has been instrumental in progress in negotiations. So I mean, hey, we whether we like it or not, we're headed into a new administration and we want the best for you know, all the American people. That's right. And I just want to see the deal. Just look at the choice of words. All hell will break out. That's right. If them hostages ain't released by the time I hit off. Okay, now you're not going to now. When I get the catalog, let me make me show you
Starting point is 00:07:47 how daddy ball. Speaking of getting in office, though, the inauguration is six days away. Senate confirmation hearings are set to get underway today for some of President elect Trump's cabinet pick. So basically, that's the interview for various jobs to lead the different departments of the government. So here's the lineup, Doug Collins, a former Navy chaplain, to lead the Department of Veteran Affairs. They will also look more closely at a controversial pick, Fox News host and veteran Pete Hegseth for secretary defense.
Starting point is 00:08:15 Senator Mark Kelly, an Arizona Democrat, told CBS' Face the Nation, he has concerns about the nominee, while Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, a Wyoming Republican, said he has confidence in Hexeth. Let's hear from them. We need a qualified individual in that job. And he just does not seem to have the qualifications. He is very qualified. In my opinion, he has a record, a distinguished record of service as the whip. My job is to make sure they get across the finish line any thoughts on those uh... nominees so far
Starting point is 00:08:50 i'm moving on so former north dakota governor doug bergman's confirmation hearing uh... as presumptive interior nominee has been uh... pushback over missing paperwork now republican chair of the internet energy and natural resources committee mike lee announced the delay to ensure transparency and uphold the integrity process. This comes as Lee was blamed for breaching protocol in holding a hearing before having the paperwork for New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich. Now on
Starting point is 00:09:18 Wednesday, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem seeks to become Homeland Security Secretary. Former Congressman Sean Duffy is up for Secretary of Transportation and fracking executive Chris Wright is up for Secretary of Energy. Florida Senator Marco Rubio is up for Secretary of State along with Pam Bondi's hearing for Attorney General. Now hearings for a long list of nominees will continue throughout the week. So we will continue to watch how our government will shape up as Trump's inauguration looms. Any thoughts? Mm-hmm. All right, well that's your front page news for 6 a.m. at 7 a.m. We will

I act like a grown man. First off, didn't you smell the chair after Jennifer Lopez left the end of that was 12 years ago That was 12 years ago What why do older people wait until younger people start stopping to give out important information as nobody's been? Like why do you wait for a picture of a viral? To tell me my Auntie Gloria in the hospital?

Yo, this New York beef is making me sad, yo. I don't know whether to pick Jim or Cam. I don't know. I got crush on Jim, so I'm riding with Jim, but I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:51 We're gonna get into it. I'm sad. It's weird. It's weird. It's weird. But we'll discuss when we come back as the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy. We are the breakfast club. Let's get to just with the mess On the breakfast club she's a coacheship 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 Yo, I'm extremely sad about the beef. I don't know if it's just the New York-ish that got me like what? I don't know if this hot niggas beef in New York, but the Jim and Cam thing is crazy and Lauren
Starting point is 00:18:39 I got some questions about it. I really do. I know it's like backstory and all that Yeah for Cam that in my opinion he act like't never had nothing to do with Jim at all. Yeah, it made me sad. And I know that people are like, oh, they've been doing this. It's not the first time. But me as a fan, it made me sad. But there's a lot to it. So Cam yesterday came back to It Is What It Is, which is a show with Maze and Treasure Wilson. And people have been waiting for him to respond and boy did he respond. First of all, he sets the scene Mace is eating popcorn. So you already know that it's about to go down. He's about to watch a movie.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Yep, you already know it's about to go down. And Cam is like, listen, I want to get into this first before we get to anything else. Because Treasure Wilson is like, y'all want to go sports, y'all want to go with the people been saying. He's like, no, let's get this out the way. Let's clear the air right so as he opens up and starts to talk about it the first thing he says is like let's set the record straight Jim Jones is not even from Harlem right and and that stuck to the point where like even Wikipedia if you look up Jim Jones right now going Wikipedia they have his location where he's from as the Bronx which is crazy because you know Jim's a Harlem
Starting point is 00:19:42 guy he got the song moving right now in Harlem. So how you not from Harlem though? I mean I don't know where anybody is from. I don't know where anybody is from I'm just you know. They all got Harlem World tattoos though so if you knew he wasn't from Harlem back then why didn't you get the tattoos? I don't know I'm not from Harlem but they said I guess they said he was from the Bronx but he stayed at his grandmother's house in Harlem. Yeah and Cam said that he said your grandmother house Yes, your grandmother house was in the Bronx and you was there But basically the whole point of the opening of what cam was saying is like you really you really weren't around We brought you around he went through a bunch of different freestyles from like back from like 95 and was like yo Jim
Starting point is 00:20:18 Where you at? Like you really were not around we brought you around and what hurt my heart the most I was like the first like real shot he took, he called Jim Jones a fan. Let's take a listen. I never needed nowhere to stay. Do you act like on your couch? You was a fan. You begged us.
Starting point is 00:20:35 You are a fan. A fan. We didn't go out with you. I am from 140th and Lennox. I am from NFL, up the block with 40 rules, Lou Simpson's at 142nd, Crown Square, D. Ferg on number 8th Avenue. I don't see you around none of this.
Starting point is 00:20:50 So you can sit around and act like you've been around all this Harlem and everything. You ever see somebody from Harlem try to act like they from Harlem so bad that you gotta keep saying, I'm from Harlem? Who's from Harlem know who's from Harlem. You don't have to keep saying you from Harlem. So that's first and foremost.
Starting point is 00:21:06 You were fanned out and you begged me to come to your house after you heard all these mixtapes. That's how you got in. Oh, that's not like us on a different level. I mean, it's crazy. No, but it's crazy because right now, like I said, Jim Jones got that song, like Harlem, like he's literally taking shots at that as well too because the song is all about him saying
Starting point is 00:21:27 multiple times, I'm from Harlem. And I think a lot of it is just like, cause when Jim sat down with Justin LaBoy, which is what this response is, in response to. That's why people need to stop sitting with Justin LaBoy. Don't do my boy like that. Don't do my boy like that. Cause honestly, I'm not even gonna hold y'all,
Starting point is 00:21:44 like that interview started everything, but Justin LaBoy was asking questions that people wanted to know. And he's from New York. So he's like, yo, I grew up wondering all of this stuff. And he just got the backstory on a lot of it. And it started all this. But the point that he's trying to make, because Jim Jones, when he talked to Justin LaBoy, was basically like, the dipset motion came from me. They didn't take care of me, but it came from me and I was around
Starting point is 00:22:09 and they got to a point where they act like I wasn't. So I had to do what was best for me. We were talking about the performance he did with 50 Cent back in 2007 when Kim and 50 was beefing. Cameron also responded to that. Let's take a listen. I just all started because I asked for decent question cool I thought it was cool to ask 50 happened 20 years ago over many years ago I thought it was all good I had no problem thinking you know okay he tricked out they spot came to spot I know 50 said it well I thought it was funny when he said but I didn't think it'd be a big deal because you make out with every put his on you. But I see the pattern now.
Starting point is 00:22:45 If you don't agree to disagree with you and don't wanna take it that way because they got some genuine love for you, you keep going on and on and on. Every put hands on you and you get to all the things you cool with them. Y'all that's nasty work. No, there's no coming back from that.
Starting point is 00:22:59 And okay, so we just have that clip, but to follow what he said, after that, Kim then started to break down all these different beefs that he says that Jim had that a lot of people know about some of them. For instance, his issue with Mendicis and he's like, yo, it wasn't even that Mendicis put hands on you, gunshots was let off there. Now y'all sitting down, y'all homies, y'all cool.
Starting point is 00:23:20 French Montana, you tried to run him out of rap, you tried to run him out of New York and you went to a movie premiere where, you know, French Montana was making fun of you in the movie you sitting there watching the movie He talked about may know you know may know and Jim got lobby boys And they did the whole project and he like yo There was one time where you tried to press may know because that freestyle may know did when he was mentioning all the rappers Mm-hmm, and may know how to remind you like I'm not one of them But now your homies, but when I try to agree to disagree Because I got love for you you keep poking the bear and I'm confused because I them, but now you're homies. But when I try to agree to disagree, because I got love for you, you keep poking the bear.
Starting point is 00:23:46 And I'm confused because I got real love for you. But everybody else, it's fair. But when I sit down with somebody that I've been able to make up with, now you got an issue with it. And you throwing shots and you taking jabs. And the jabs didn't even just come at him. They were at Mase as well too.
Starting point is 00:24:01 So let's take a listen to that one. You said they ain't got that one. Oh, we do have it. It's audio too, Mace the rap. You was so cool. And we was like, yo, Joe Moe's a nice guy. Mace like, yo, I think I'll teach him how to rap. Mace actually taught you how to rap. Literally, literally. He taught you how to rap. You say it. Matter of fact, bring up the clip. Mace helped me learn how to do it. I actually learned how to rap.
Starting point is 00:24:25 Mace showed me how to rap. Mace actually showed me. He was the first person to show me how to rap. Mace actually sat me down and showed me the magic to rap. You're not a compilation of Mace. The internet did that and they grabbed that from the internet. But when we come back, we got to, cause I do want to hear your thoughts on this.

Starting point is 00:24:45 For me it broke my heart as a dipstiff and I'm like dang even though they do this all the time It's like that shit me. I had a whole question Jim Jones angle. I'm standing behind them I don't actually know cuz I'm trying to get here I'm just shocked they moved all these issues over after all of these years like this is not even the first time that we know I just heard this but you can tell it's always been a problem But trying to prove that another grown man is really a bitch is wow oh no no no we got more audio it got real bad we gonna have to come back New York but see what dip dip set in the diplomats was Cameron like Cameron was
Starting point is 00:25:19 Cameron so Cameron and Juelz were the rappers right it wasn't just Cameron let me finish what I'm saying let. Let me finish what I'm saying. Let me finish what I'm saying. Cam Ron and Juelz were the rappers. Freaky Zeki and Jim Jones was the muscle. That's what it was. If you say something about Cam, Jim Jones was popping up at the radio station with 30 people outside. That's how it was. Jim started to rap after that, but Diplomats was all of those four brothers, but Cam was the rapper, Juelz was the rapper.im started to rap late jim was more the muscle jim was the one that was outside he was the one that was getting the troops he was the one to get the gold so that's was that was diplomats that's how that whole thing
Starting point is 00:25:52 was very important he was the one that was running around in the clubs not just the the bougie clubs the dirty clubs the dirty strip clubs with that flag making dj's play it and if anybody violated he was the one that was sending the movement that's how the diplomats things started so it's great to hear the head cam act like it wasn't real come at this man yeah like that's wild that's the part that i'm not like really and that's why i think it broke my heart i know we gotta they're wrapping us up but in the next hour i want to play a clip to your point envi of of jim being the muscle from you know what you understand him and big and big joe big Big Joe was the security back in the day. They used to run to the radio stations, the clubs, they were the ones that were running
Starting point is 00:26:29 around New York City. Cammy was like nah that wasn't true, that's not it. Let's tell the real stories about what happened when people really ran down on us so we're going to get to that at the top of the next hour. We'll get to that next and then we got front page news Morgan will be joining us and then we're going to be kicking it with Rashad and Troy Millings of course from Earn Your Leisure we'll talk to them next next don't go anywhere it's the Breakfast Club good morning. Morning everybody it's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious
Starting point is 00:26:50 Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club let's get in some front page news now let's start off with some quick sports the Rams beat the Vikings last night 27 to 9 also Tyson Fury announces retiring from boxing. Now I'm mad at that you know saying like I said earlier I don't think we realized how much Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder took out of each other. Go back and watch them three fights and watch the war that they both waged on each other and neither one of them were the same since. And also I don't know if this is something that you would love Charlamagne
Starting point is 00:27:21 they're saying that Jerry Jones has talked to Deion Sanders regarding the head coach position. I don't want that. Solution to Deion Sanders, I love prime time, I love the prime effect. I like Deion Sanders being a leader of young men in college. I don't wanna see Deion Sanders, at least not the head coach of the Cowboys.
Starting point is 00:27:39 And I don't see how that would work. Like, you really think Deion Sanders could coach against his own kids? Especially if what if Shidor Sanders goes to the Giants and the Cowboys got to play the Giants twice a year? You really think that's the position Deion wants to be in? You have to. I just don't, I don't, I don't see the reasoning for him to want to be the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. Honestly. Good morning Morgan. Good morning Envy, Charlamagne and Jess Hilarious. Y'all good?
Starting point is 00:28:03 Yes. Yeah, okay. So in case you missed it, we are talking about what's happening out west with the fires. President Biden, he's announcing a one-time payment of $770 to each resident impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires.

["Flaash Slam", another one gone, fast bam, another one gone, the cracker, the bat, and another one gone, the tip of the cap is another one gone."
Starting point is 00:30:52 Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me

Starting point is 00:31:26 Listen to historical records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Let's hear more from Biden on that payment. People impacted by these fires are going to receive one-time payment of $770, one time payment, so they can quickly purchase things like water, baby formula, prescriptions. Yeah, so Biden was joined at his desk in the Oval Office by Vice President Harris and FEMA officials earlier this week, amongst others, and the death toll is, as it reported, reportedly is up to 24 people with California Gavin Newsom saying there are likely to be
Starting point is 00:32:05 a lot more. We're learning more about the order suspending some environmental requirements to speed up wildfire recovery efforts in LA County issued by Governor Gavin Newsom. It suspends permitting and review requirements under two environmental protection acts. They are the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Coastal Act. This will apply to residents planning to rebuild their homes and businesses destroyed by the Palisades and Eaton fires. Let's hear more from Governor Gavin Newsom, the California governor, about LA 2.0. That's what he's calling it.
Starting point is 00:32:39 We're already organizing a Marshall Plan. We already have a team of looking and reimagining LA 2.0, And we're making sure everyone's included, not just the folks on the coast. We're starting to organize how we can put together a collection of individuals on philanthropy for recovery, how we can organize the region, how we can make sure that we are seeking federal assistance with efficiency like the executive order. I talked about time value of delivering projects, addressing building codes, addressing permitting issues, and moving forward to rebuilding and being more resilient. We talked about this a little bit yesterday, Envy. Your thoughts on fast-tracking these
Starting point is 00:33:14 types of things? You think it'll be terrible on the back end or something you might be dealing with on the back end or you think it could be for the better? I look at both sides. I think it'd be great because they could start getting those houses back up and getting those structures back up but if there's nobody policing the actual work you know people will cut corners and you don't want that either you don't want somebody to cut corners on a house or a structure or something that they're building and they're not actually watching the proper policies because you don't want them to fall down you don't
Starting point is 00:33:39 want any problems but you know right now it's gonna be a money grab but like these people are gonna be trying to build these buildings and these houses fast to make more money So I do I do think they need some type of policing And I still want to know like when you build the building like you feel comfortable building there knowing that you may not get Um the proper insurance you need for once a situation like this happens again, right? Because a situation like this will absolutely happen again Yeah and it will affect insurance rates right because? Because insurance companies can see the damage
Starting point is 00:34:06 and unless they put some type of, you know, something in it where, you know, that can stop that from happening, like maybe, you know, I know they were talking about people having sprinkler systems put in their house to keep their house moist and wet so their house wouldn't catch on fire. They'll make people to, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:20 to make sure that they have that in those homes. Yeah, and I mean, that's been the big issue about the state, right? They said the state regulators have not let insurers charge premiums that fully reflect the risk and costs. So that has to change as well, right? All right, so a lot of changes need to be made before you even talk about building structures and fast tracking
Starting point is 00:34:42 and getting people back. But yeah, meanwhile, Southern California officials, they say the fight is not over and crews are prepared for winds to pick up dramatically as they continue battling wildfires in the area. Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Moroney said weather conditions continue to pose a fire threat. Let's hear from him. Severe fire weather conditions will continue through Wednesday. Please be assured that all fire departments
Starting point is 00:35:07 and all law enforcement agencies in the area will be prepared. The anticipated winds combined with low humidities and low fuel moistures will keep the fire threat in all of Los Angeles County critical. So it's important to note that this has they've been fighting for about a week now the palisades Will keep the fire threat in all of Los Angeles County critical. So it's important to note that this has they've been fighting for about a week now. The palisades eaten and hearse fires erupted last Tuesday. More than 92,000 people are under evacuation orders while another 89,000 are under evacuation warnings.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Were you getting ready to say? Now I was going to say and also they got to figure out you know how to stop this. Meaning if you pay money for your taxes and your taxes are supposed to take care your fire Department and your police department, but like in the police department. They're fighting. They don't have bullets How does that help like in the same thing with the fire department? There should be no way that there was no water in them fire hydrants, right? You pay all this money in taxes you pay for these things just in case to make sure they protect you But if there's no water in the fire hydrants if the police have no water pressure to put out these fires
Starting point is 00:36:05 Where is all that money going to who is supposed to be doing the checks and balances to make sure that these things are working? And these things are safe and if they're not that person or that department needs to be changed or fired or something You know, cuz that's that's the main problem Somebody commented on that yesterday to envy about what you said about the fire hydrants They said that the the fire hydrants there was 114 tanks in total, all of which were fully filled before the fires. However, the three water tanks in the palisades were unable to be refilled because of high demand. That's what it was. Yeah. Yeah. I did hear that the pressure or the pressure was on the fire hydrants weren't as strong as it needed to be because of also the demand of pulling water from the freeze.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Four times the normal demand was seen for 15 hours straight which lowered the water pressure. Yeah, well that's just so unfortunate. But that's your front page news.

Starting point is 00:37:02 Thank y'all. Alrighty. Now when we come back, the brothers from Earn Your Leisure will be joining us. Rashad and Troy Millings, they got their new book that's out today. You Deserve to Be Rich. We're going to talk to them next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building. Yes, indeed. They got a new book out right now. You deserve to be rich.
Starting point is 00:37:28 All right. Ladies and gentlemen, Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings. Welcome. What's going on? First, how y'all feeling, man? We good. We good, man. I feel like a book is overdue for y'all.
Starting point is 00:37:36 That's a fact. Long overdue. People kind of felt the same way. It was one of those things where like, when's the book coming? When's the book coming? Everybody asks us questions everywhere we go. Where's the book coming? Books here like, when's the book coming? When's the book coming?
Starting point is 00:37:46 Everybody asks us questions everywhere we go. Where's the book coming? Books here. I wonder, so what is it about it? Do you break down how y'all started and how y'all got together or is it more about financial literacy or is it both? Both. We talk about like how we started, the backstory.
Starting point is 00:37:59 So it's like six different people and it tracks their journey. It's like a single mom, somebody that just graduated from college. And then it's like real life situations, like, okay, this person's credit is messed up. This person needs to get a single family home. So we're teaching, but it's in story format. That's been the whole point of our platform, right? Like we highlight people that's relatable. So it's better than us just like teaching from a whiteboard. So we put it in story format and it teaches you about crypto, stocks, real estate, credit, but like in an entertaining way because it's in story format. So it's like a pathway for financial freedom and everything that we talk about just like in a concise encyclopedia type of format.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Yeah, it's designed for you know the audience or the reader to identify with one of those characters and if you don't you know somebody that is identifying with them. Oh, you said we share stuff in there as well. So like when we talk about financial trauma, that's something unique to us that we had to experience and go through. And what were the lessons we learned from it? Obviously being where we're at now, there were mistakes that were made along the way, but we've grown from them and here are the lessons that everybody else can
Starting point is 00:39:00 learn from them as well. How do you break down everybody's journeys different, right? But somebody might look at your journey and say, you know what, I'm gonna jump on, I'm gonna do a podcast. And then they'd be like, after six years, they'd be like, I'm not where they at, you know what I mean? Or you see people say, all right, I'm gonna jump on the, you know, on the book thing.
Starting point is 00:39:15 And they'd be like, I ain't where Charlamagne at. So what do you tell people that? Because people like to follow what people do. And sometimes everybody's journey and everybody's path is different. And the success you guys have with podcasts is not gonna be the success of somebody else that's trying to do a financial podcast.
Starting point is 00:39:28 So what do you tell people in that plane when it comes to investing in crypto with things like that? Investors for everybody. So anybody can invest in stocks, anybody can buy real estate, anybody can do crypto, that's for anybody. Now business is a little different because you're right, you're not going to have the same success as Breakfast Club just because you're passionate about talking on the microphone. So that you have to really dig deep and see, okay, what am I passionate about?
Starting point is 00:39:50 But also how can I help people? That's really our thing is like, how can you help people? Right? Like a lot of times people go into business for selfish reasons just to make money. Like we did that before it didn't work. So what did work was when we actually had a platform that actually helped people. Right? So you got to really look at yourself and say, okay, what am I passionate
Starting point is 00:40:07 about? What am I talented? That's another thing too. Like there's a certain level of talent to it. Like people think that everything is just easy and it's like, you got to have a level of skill to be successful as an entrepreneur, no matter what you're doing. So that takes a little bit more like self evaluation, working with other people. And then sometimes you don't have to be the main part of it either. That takes a little bit more like self-evaluation, working with other people.
Starting point is 00:40:25 And then sometimes you don't have to be the main part of it either. You could be part of a business and it's not your business, but you have a great skill set. Like you're a great tech guy, right? Somebody else is great with ideas. Now you come together and that's a that's a way to kind of be part of a business as opposed to just being the Elon Musk forward facing ultra, you know, alpha entrepreneur. The ditty of it all. Elon Musk forward-facing, ultra alpha entrepreneur.
Starting point is 00:40:46 The ditty of it all. Elon Musk is like the ditty of tech. But you know, Elon, you look at how powerful he is. He was really powerful, if you think about it, by just listening, right? Just think about any of these dealerships, right? Or any of these car companies, whether it's Toyota, Ford, you name it.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Do we know who runs them? Do we know who owns them? Do we see them out? No, right? Even with Elon, you look at what made Tesla so big. He listened to people. Do we know who runs them? Do we know who owns them? Do we see them out? No. Right? Even with Elon, you look at what made Tesla so big. He listened to people. Now when they started finding him, when they started taxing him, what did he say?
Starting point is 00:41:11 You know what? I'm going to drop $30,000 off all my cars. We've never seen that before. Moved the plan to tax us. Where somebody could go get a lease for $199? You never see that before. Elon is probably one of the smartest people in human history. But he's dangerous. He's very dangerous.
Starting point is 00:41:26 He's a very dangerous person. And the agenda that he's pushing, like even telling you about this DEI thing, it's disturbing. But you say things enough and people just start to believe it. Right. And it's like this attack on DEI is just it's like a politically correct way to say really, because if you think that there is no DEI, if you think about it, like there's less than one percent of Fortune 500 companies that have black CEOs.
Starting point is 00:41:45 There's 7% of people in tech that are black. That's less than half of the black population percentage was right. So there's no DEI. This whole thing of DEI is just an illusion but it's really like there's some places in the world where they have permanent underclass like India where you can never rise above and that's just like a caste system. So this whole DEI thing I think pushing the reason why it's so dangerous is because if they say this enough, what they're really saying is that no black person is qualified for any job that's not just menial.
Starting point is 00:42:11 We don't want y'all leading. Any job that's meaningful is not, you're not qualified for. So if you have a meaningful job, the first thing they can say is you only got it because you're black. So they don't really want black people to have any level of power, anything at all. And that's something that he's pushing, he's championing that. So why you guys say like, okay, you're the richest person in the world. You put $200 million into a campaign and then you got $200 billion out of it in six weeks. You work $400 billion, you're going to become a trillionaire in five years. So why is it so important for you to push DEI?
Starting point is 00:42:40 You know, it's funny you say that, people got mad at me because I said last year that these corporate DEI initiatives were bullsh** because a lot of them weren't for us, by us. You can't have a bunch of white people sitting around creating DEI programs for us and that's why they were so easy to get rid of. And I think you guys know better than most, when you have real equity in something, you can't just take it away. And I think- You can't control what you don't own.
Starting point is 00:43:01 You can't control what you don't own. It's like, listen, you don't own. You can't control what you don't own. It's like leasing. Like you don't own the car. You're going to give it back. Like they put these DI initiatives or it's like the record industry. It's like music industry. They give people these record labels. What does that really mean?
Starting point is 00:43:14 It's still under universal. Nobody owns a record label. Nobody owns a record label. It's just distribution that they're giving you as a title. You're just a manager. You can be replaced at any given moment. Liquor company, the same thing. All of our billionaires became billionaires
Starting point is 00:43:26 because of partnerships white billionaires became billionaires because of ownership it's a different you see that we see what happened with yay they could take a partnership away now you got a billion in the year you see what happened with Diddy you can't take Elon Musk because his ownership he has ownership of the company is in the stock market there's 5,000 companies that's in on the stock market seven are black out of 5,000 and that's on the stock market. Seven are black out of 5,000. And that's a decrease, it used to be 12. Like I'm saying, like this stuff,
Starting point is 00:43:48 that's what I'm saying, people don't really look at it from that standpoint, it's like. What would you say take away? They did sever ties with Ye, but they still had to pay him out. No, but I'm saying he lost his billionaire status because it was tied to Yeezy brand, right? And Yeezy brand was Adidas, essentially.
Starting point is 00:44:02 So he owned 100% of Yeezy, but it was really nothing without Adidas. But Yeezy sold his portions of Yeezy brand was Adidas essentially so he owned 100% of Yeezy, but it was really nothing without without Adidas Well, yeah, you ain't sold his portions of you know You can't sell remember when he had all the backlog with Adidas and they had the they had the merchandise The merchandise had to use them talking about the actual equity in the company. You can't sell what you don't own Yeah, he didn't have no choice with that. He couldn't sell a number. He didn't want it released. They released it anyway That's just a merchandise. You got a licensing deal. I love Yeezy.
Starting point is 00:44:27 He's one of my favorites, but I'm just saying. He'll probably tell you. It was a learning experience. It's all a facade. How do y'all feel when all of us were out supporting Diddy when he had the liquor and drink Sirac and this, that, and the other, and then it comes out that he didn't own it? He had 30% equity in it. His pathway was to ownership. He made a mistake.
Starting point is 00:44:46 People were not taking ownership in Siroc than the Deleon. But that was a process in itself. In order for him to get the first deal that was part of stipulations. He had to first prove it and he did it with Siroc and people were like, oh we felt like, oh he owns that. The next thing was Deleon which
Starting point is 00:45:02 he was going to have 100% ownership in. So we saw that getting pushed and that led to the 50% ownership inside of that. The next thing was Deleon which he's gonna have a hundred percent ownership in right so we saw that getting pushed and that led to the loss of 50% ownership inside of that and then the way it was being marketed was a lot different than it was for Siroc. When we saw Siroc it was like the jet skis and it was a huge push for that and when it was came time for Deleon you didn't see that as much. Did you see Deleon marketed like you saw Siroc marketed? Hell no. Just the young Miami. Is that a coincidence? Is that a coincidence? You see daily on market it like she saw sir rock market. I don't know
Starting point is 00:45:35 Deleon wasn't that good Connoisseur. I'm not. I don't think it's that good. We not liquor. Nobody's like a liquor. Casamigos that good? No. You drinking to get drunk though. Casamigos got embraced by the coaches. Just like Sprock did.
Starting point is 00:46:00 Why? Because Diddy was pushing them. I don't know why Casamigos got this. Because rappers put it in their songs. I guess. Same thing with Tequila. And George Clooney ran up to a billion. Ran up to a billion. Alright, we got more with the brothers from Earn Your Leisure.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Rashad and Troy Millings. Don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Shalamine Negai. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Rashad and Troy Millings.
Starting point is 00:46:23 The new book, You Deserve to Be Rich, is out today. But I wanna ask you, chapter 10, you talk about entrepreneurship and a beautiful struggle, right? So you guys have a lot of people that come to you that work a nine to five and want to be entrepreneurs. And it always comes back to when Dame Dash was up here and told people that, you know,
Starting point is 00:46:40 pretty much you shouldn't work a nine to five, you should be your own entrepreneur. What do you say to that with people coming out, especially with this landscape of what's going on in the own entrepreneur. What do you say to that with people coming out, especially with this landscape of what's going on in the world today? What do you say to those people? I don't think it's one thing or the other. I think it could be both, and I'm a testament to that.
Starting point is 00:46:53 So like while he was having that interview in 2015, I was a phys ed teacher. 2018 when I think we finally came in contact, or 2019, I was still a phys ed teacher, but I was starting a business. Why? Because I knew that my salary was not gonna provide the the life that I wanted long term for my family. And so one of the things being around entrepreneurs like Rashard and our other partner Mike, I'm
Starting point is 00:47:13 watching them create their own freedoms. I'm watching them create their own salaries. I'm watching them being able to create generational wealth for something that they own. I would have worked in that school district for 20 years and that didn't guarantee anything for my kids. And so I always tell people like, your nine to five is your first investor. I looked at the school district like this is an investor, right? They're getting return on their investment because I show up every day. I'm making sure I do my job. The kids are enjoying it.
Starting point is 00:47:35 They're learning. The growth is there. That money that I made, now I got to figure out how I can number one, invest it, but how can I create business? At the time, Earning a Leisure became that business and now you got the guy who was a nine-to-five that now was doing entrepreneur stuff on his break like I'm shooting ads right when shout out to black effect we were doing that I'm shooting those on my lunch break I'm shooting those in the bathroom everything I'm doing is I still got the
Starting point is 00:47:56 nine-to-five but now I'm having this entrepreneurial journey eventually the entrepreneurial journey took me out of my nine-to-five and now this is the full-time thing so I'll say this about you do both. Dane probably in my opinion the most impactful interview that you guys have ever done. I think it aids terribly. We'll continue. Why? Why it takes terribly? Because of who he? Because of him? Sort of kind of but I think the missing piece of that interview was what y'all do. The missing piece of that interview was the how. Well that's the thing. So, Dane is great at saying things but not fully explaining it and then kind of going off the rails sometimes.
Starting point is 00:48:27 But what he did do in that interview was to get a lot of people focused on entrepreneurship. It was triggering for a lot of people, but it's important. He went to the extreme, but entrepreneurship is important. That's vitally important and especially in our communities. Even most black entrepreneurs don't employ any people. So that's really now you're not really even an entrepreneur at that point in time, you just are working for yourself. I mean, so as far as the business side of it, for him to kind of say that it was insightful. And I think it definitely got people thinking like on a different level. So to answer your question, I think everybody doesn't need to be an entrepreneur,
Starting point is 00:49:06 but we do need to encourage entrepreneurship for sure. And like you said, you can be an employee and have a business as well. There's no job security. No, and entrepreneurship now. No, no, and jobs. Like there's no jobs. We're talking about AI is gonna take 200 million jobs
Starting point is 00:49:23 in the next 10 years. No job that you have, you can just say, okay, I'm just going to work this job and I'm going to be okay. And even if you do work that job, your wage is going to stay the same. So inflation is going up and wages are staying the same. This is why debt's going up because people is making up for what they're not earning and money and they're putting it on their credit card. So entrepreneurship, like we always going to push that.
Starting point is 00:49:44 That's very, very important. So title of the book is you deserve to be rich, but like what is your definition of rich, worth, you know, versus wealthy? Cause I wanna be wealthy. That's perfect, yeah. Is that in the book somewhere I can figure that out? Like for my kids and you know, how do I?
Starting point is 00:50:02 We actually had this debate about whether we should use, he wanted to use the word wealthy. Yeah, I did did I know we gotta talk to the people yeah and I know rich is a word that we still figuring this thing out like I mean as far as as a people what is rich so you gotta crawl before you walk right so wealthy is the ultimate goal for sure but you gotta get rich before you become wealthy yeah um but yeah I know you was gonna say something about that. Nah, I was gonna say exactly that, right? Like the first step to building wealth is you gotta get rich. You gotta figure out what systems you're gonna create to make sure that you can have money in your account that is number one, you can invest which is gonna help you get rich and then wealth is something that's forever.
Starting point is 00:50:41 We want everybody to have it forever. But we know that it just takes one person in the family to get rich right so like now you become the CEO of your family now how do you allocate that and that's part of the book too it's like yes a lot of us in here CEOs for our families but nobody has the the guide to tell us what to do when we're now the CEO how do you now lend money to your friends how do you say no to your cousins right now nobody tells you how to do any things how do you now lend money to your friends? How do you say no to your cousins? Nobody tells you how to do anything. How do you now prepare for your children? How do you now prepare for your child to make sure that the wealth that you've now created
Starting point is 00:51:13 is now passed down? We always talk about wealth and our community, but again, it's all first generation. Envy, you're first generation. Shard, we're first generation. How do we make sure that it gets passed down to your kids? We don't know. How do we make sure that it gets passed down to your kids? We don't know, right? How do we make sure that it gets passed down to your kids' kids?
Starting point is 00:51:29 That's generational wealth. That's what we've seen in other communities, but there was never a guide, and that's why we came out with the book, because it was like, here's the guide. Here are the steps to make sure that you have sustainable wealth. Not just generational, but sustainable,
Starting point is 00:51:40 because that's the goal, right? Your kids shouldn't have to work as hard as you did to get to it. So first get rich and then we're gonna be wealthy. The intro is the American Dream remix, which I find fascinating, because how would you define the American Dream in 2025? Yeah, the American Dream,
Starting point is 00:51:56 we say like the American Dream is a lie because it's like the American Dream is work hard and have your family and that's only a recipe for just to be stressed out and to be broke for your whole life The dream the dream for me is to be able to like even going back to like what is rich people say I like What's your definition of rich like I feel like when you can live life on your turn? That's a blessing like when you can wake up when you want you travel when you want you can you know go to the restaurant I have to worry about how much money
Starting point is 00:52:25 you have because you know you got it. Like I mean, like send your kids to school. That's how I look at it as far as like, you know, being rich, like not just having to worry about day to day struggles and you know, pension Peter to pay Paul and worrying about how you're going to get enough money to pay rent next week and stuff like that. So that's my American dream. I mean what I mean? Being able to employ people. That's important. We employ probably 30 people. That's a good feeling, man. It's a good feeling to actually be able to support somebody else's economy. You're responsible for them in a
Starting point is 00:52:59 certain sense as far as how they put food on their table. That's how we're really moving this thing forward. It's a personal situation for me. First generation American, parents from Jamaica. The American dream was get the big house with the white picket fence and have it done. And my parents actually got to it, but they didn't have financial education. We lost that house and ended up living in a basement. And so the dream has to be remixed because everybody's not starting at the same point.
Starting point is 00:53:23 Had my parents started with education, who knows? I don't even make it to this point. So everybody's dream is going to be remixed because everybody's not starting at the same point. Right? Have my parents started with education? Who knows? I don't even make it to this point. Right? So like everybody's dream is going to be different. We used to be pitched that but we're seeing a lot of different starting points. We're starting to see a lot of new innovation. We're starting to see more people that look like us create wealth. So people are creating their realities more than their dreams. Right? Like somebody, they just asked us, did you ever dream that it would be like this? No. Who thinks that you're going to create a podcast that turns into a media conglomerate that's educating millions about finance No, man, you I just wanted to make six figures when I was in middle school That was it and this is we're turning realities and now people are finding like hey
Starting point is 00:53:57 My reality is more important than some of those things I dreamed about they could be goals, right? We got to turn these things into reality. I we got more with Rashad and Troy from Earn Your Leisure. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking in with Rashad and Troy from Earn Your Leisure.
Starting point is 00:54:15 The new book, You Deserve to Be Rich, Master of the Inner Game of Wealth and Claim Your Future is out today. Charlamagne? You got a chapter called paying the other tax. What's the other tax? Like friends, family, you know, black, it's a black tax. You're responsible for that. Y'all know what that is.
Starting point is 00:54:33 You gotta make sure that your family's taking care. You gotta make sure that your parents take care. You gotta take sure that, you know. Especially now, cause you told them they deserve to be rich. You deserve to be rich on your own, man. No, no, no. That's a second edition. That's a second edition.
Starting point is 00:54:45 But they got to believe it. In the money principle chapter you say how you feel about yourself is reflected in your relationship with money. What is the connection between the two? If you don't love yourself, then you're going to make bad decisions. It goes back to a lot of different psychological things as far as especially with us. Like, you know, we have an inferiority complex that we never really fully acknowledged. So when you go to Dubai, you don't know who's who because everybody's dressed the same. You might have a watch, you might, but other than that, nobody knows
Starting point is 00:55:15 they, anybody, they dress modest, men and women, there's wisdom in that. We have to have a better chain. We got to have a better car. We got to have a better watch because we want to let you know that we have more money than you. But can we talk about mental health real quick? Please. That's a big part too that I think we should talk about as far as when you start getting money. Like it's not really talked about a lot. They should have like mental health professionals for people that's just getting money.
Starting point is 00:55:41 Especially in sports. 100%. Yeah, every aspect because there's so many different things that you gotta go through mentally that you don't put you can't prepare yourself for. I was thinking about that uh you know when I was I was listening to Mark Zuckerberg on Joe Rogan and even guys like Elon Musk who prepares them to be multi-billionaires with that much power over the world? You don't and that's why you just start being Elon and just think you just got a God complex.
Starting point is 00:56:09 And try to figure out how to conquer. How many times have you talked about financial trauma in your household? That type of trauma never gets spoken about, and it's real, you know what I'm saying? These are real things that are happening on an everyday basis, but the first thing is to understand where the trauma comes from,
Starting point is 00:56:23 which is the recognition part how do we overcome it and how do we change that? You start thinking where s*** like why white billionaires have a fatuation with gangsta rappers that's weird. The music is good. No, no. Sean why you sleeping on the music? The music slaps.
Starting point is 00:56:37 I know it's one thing to like a music but I'm just saying all right if you're a white billionaire right and you appreciate black culture I can appreciate that but if you're a white billionaire, right? And you appreciate black culture, I can appreciate that. But if you only surround yourself with rappers and entertainers, well that tells me that you don't really value black culture. You only- Give me some examples, give me some examples. You only value black culture from an aspect
Starting point is 00:56:56 of their hair to entertain you. Because if you really value black culture, you would have Tamika Mallory there, you could have Senator from x y & z so you're not going to a Mike Rubin or white party no it's not about that but i don't know why we do that no it's not Mike Rubin it's a lot of people though you know they might not be billionaires but they're close to it it's a lot of them and it's weird and it is It's weird how the rappers look at them because they would never do that for a black billionaire Well, you know what like what would the little baby tell you about when you ask him about people saying he's always around like Mike Rubin
Starting point is 00:57:33 It gives him information and all that No, no, I appreciate I'm just saying that this is how Donald Trump became popular. He used black culture He got filthy rich off of it with real estate and all that too but I'm saying that's how he became like real celebrity and then he turned into the 180. Because nobody told these rappers to mention Donald Trump in all they records. Nobody told these rappers to put the name songs after Trump. It goes both ways. It goes both ways. It's predatory practice. Kanye hugged him in the White House and said you're like my dad. Yeah, but Go back to 80s though, right like this is up-and-coming fighter from Brooklyn who's tearing up the scene, right? Who decides that he's gonna manage him? Don't King Donald Trump Donald Trump first. I don't remember that
Starting point is 00:58:22 Yeah, go look it up. So he he manages him. He decides that like you have been coming in fact you're gonna fight at all of my all your fights are gonna be where? Atlantic City Donald Trump. Right so he already sees like here's the entertainment here's the culture this guy. But is that not good business? I'm not saying it's not. If it's look it's a difference. and the team of correspondents and contributors.

Hey, y'all, Nimini here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip hop.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The cracker, the bat, and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The cracker, the bat, and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months
Starting point is 01:01:20 before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, he was called a goldman. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning into Historical Records.

Between having good business and using something as a marketing strategy to boost your evaluation and you really have no infatuation with the situation at all, or you're only hyper focused on one particular area. That's a question that needs to be asked because it's a pattern that continues to happen. And it's happened at least 20 times over the last 15 years
Starting point is 01:02:12 with different people. You're not wrong, but I see it both ways and I'll tell you why. They're not hip hop. They didn't grow up in, they're not hip hop. They're not like, I'm not buying it. No, I agree. But it's all about what we choose to make cool
Starting point is 01:02:23 because there's a lot of billionaires that like to be around y'all now because the coaching made y'all cool. And it's the same thing with the artists, it's the same thing with the athletes. So it's really kind of up to us. Like what do we make cool in our coaching? Yeah, I think what separates us is,
Starting point is 01:02:36 and shout out to everybody that we've gotten information from, but when we get information, we giving it back to y'all. That's right. Like that's the first, right, we're not just sitting there but like, yo, because we want to look cool. We want to go to your party No, what's the information like give it to us in a real time so we can disseminate it and give it back to more people To help them and don't hug me from the back They were wrestling just
Starting point is 01:03:01 Is what makes my business cool, you know, I mean? I could own any type of business, but when you're part of it, it makes it cool. Let's think of jerseys, right? We've never owned any jerseys, but we always made it cool. When jerseys are selling out, when Mitchell & Ness, I don't even know who the owner of Mitchell & Ness was. I've never seen that guy in my life. And on another- But we made it cool.
Starting point is 01:03:19 And he's not wrong. Same guy you just talking about. But also with y'all, it's like- Oh, Mike Rubin? He owns it now, but before he did, he don't even know. EYL having billionaires at Invest Fest helps EYL. No, no, but. But it helps the culture too though.
Starting point is 01:03:32 But I'm saying, so why would two cool black dudes wanna hang with Korny and Billionaire? What I'm saying is that we have a wide spectrum of everybody. We've talked to rappers, we've talked to astronauts, we've talked to the vice president, we've talked to CEO of companies, we've talked to literally every single spectrum, every single spectrum.
Starting point is 01:03:48 We're not just only focused on rappers, because we're a business platform. That would be weird. If we were a business platform and the only requirement to get on our show is that you had to be a rapper or you had to be an athlete, then that's questionable. Yes, to a certain extent. The only reason I say to a certain extent is because they have to be introduced because we're not putting these people on, we're not putting, like I love Tameka Mallard.
Starting point is 01:04:10 We try to amplify Tameka every chance we get. You know, like Tameka got podcast with black effects, you got, I got books with black privilege published. Do a better job of researching. You're a billionaire, you got, you work for a hundred million dollars, you got a research department. Do a better job of researching because you researched this person who was a no-name rapper from Mississippi who had a buzz
Starting point is 01:04:28 You you researched this person doesn't have but okay, you're right, but doesn't have to be beneficial to both parties though But that's what I'm saying. What is the beneficial part of it? You're leeching off of a culture, right? How's that beneficial? Who's it beneficial for we benefit? Somebody is if somebody is using your culture to benefit themselves. Who's that beneficial for you said you said it's beneficial for? If somebody is using your culture to benefit themselves, who's that beneficial for? You said it's beneficial for both parties. How's it beneficial for the other party? Where's the other party benefiting from? Well, I'm only using just one example. Mike Rubin. Exactly. In the case of Mike Rubin. I don't want to keep saying Mike Rubin. I know, I know. That's the one that we know
Starting point is 01:05:01 of. They're going to send us a letter. Hey yo, me. $200,000, invest in this, you'll get your biggest return, which he did in Lids. Eight million, I was in Lids. Yo, Meek, let's start this reform. I saw what happened with your situation. Let's start this thing called reform
Starting point is 01:05:14 and let's help get other black men and black women out of prison, which he did. No, he did. Eight million, how much did Mike Rubin's valuation go up? A million, sure. No, from 2012 to 2024, how much you think it went up? Ooh, I think it was like 4 billion it was a lot. Try 26 billion. It was 26 billion? It was worth 7 to 8 billion then it's worth
Starting point is 01:05:31 30 something now. Somebody shows you the way and you come along and that's usually what happens. They got a book out right now. Oh yeah they do. This is part of the book. You deserve to be rich. Out right now make sure y''all get it EYL Rashad and Troy man appreciate y'all Oh, thank you always great conversation. Thank you. Thank you. That's right. It's the breakfast club. Good morning Good morning, everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious. Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club. Let's get to Jess with the mess. You need this real weapon. I'm the Alright, so let's jump back to the Step Brother beef. I really want to go there one more time because we missed some things, y'all. We got to come back with it. The Step Brothers, you're talking about Cameron and Jim Jones.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Yes, Cameron and Jim Jones. Yeah, so when we left off, we were having a conversation about, you said, Envy, Jim was the muscle. Yeah, when, back when the diplomats were really heavy in the street, especially in New York, Jim and Freaky and Security Big Joe was their muscle and they would run around. So the story of when they talked about the Mano situation, did we play that audio where you talked about Mano? Let's take a listen.
Starting point is 01:06:58 You ever wonder how he met Mano? Ask him how he met Mano. Mano's gonna play cause they cool now. He tried to press Mano one day cause Man, I first came out he had a little record But he said this in the rap is I know he's just he said So Jimmy plus see man on one day was like, you know, what's up with all that? I said my name is talking to Now they the lobby boys
Starting point is 01:07:21 So so that is is true when may know came home from jail, Mano would threaten everybody. Threaten all the DJs. And he did a song where he was going at all the rappers, right? And Mano used to go out every night in New York City. Every night but Friday and Saturday. Friday and Saturday is the only night that New Yorkers don't use to go out. They go out every day. They go out every Sunday through Thursday, right? So I remember that night. We were actually in a club and it was uh Mano was with three people. That's the truth. You can ask Mano. Mano had three people with him. You wanted to three with him? No. Okay. But I was at Mano's table. He was where the bottles was at. No.
Starting point is 01:08:04 You were in the club with Mano. Jim tried to run down, you backed everybody up. No. So we were all in the club, right? And this is, like Mano was the bad boy back in the day, like running around threatening everybody. So it was Mano, Mano had three and it was me and a friend of mine. We were all at Mano's table, we always used to go out with each other all the time. And Jim came in the club and Jim must have had about 15 dudes with him at that time.
Starting point is 01:08:24 And when he walked down the stairs, the first may know turned around everybody say yo tuck your chains in So he's like why so everybody took their chains and they had no idea and Jim walked over all all the dudes in front of me know and May know went in his jacket like he had a gun And when he witnessed Jack and fake pulled out like he had a gun the clubs guy everybody cleared it out, right? And we all ran out who wouldn't when we all ran out I was surprised because I know we all went through the metal detectors. I was like, you're thinking the gun He was like a lie and I was I was just bluffing but that really happened when Jim ran up on me
Starting point is 01:08:56 Yeah, absolutely positively happened. I did the same thing. You said he was with 15 niggas. It was a 15 dozer Yeah, no, you know, you know didn't have a gun. He's just finding out now cuz you just told him on the radio I'm sure they spoke about it after because they cool now But at that point May know was bluffing may know didn't have anything on him and he went in his jacket like he did in the whole Judo a smart decision judo. That's what made every that's what really made everybody Salute to me know, but that's what, I was there that night, that happened that night. Well he also talked about a BMF situation, he said, cause again he's trying to make a
Starting point is 01:09:30 point that Jim wasn't the muscle, he talked about there was a time when BMF I guess ran up on Kim and Jim and somebody else and- I wasn't there for that one. This is how he said that, Jim responded, let's take a listen. But you keep running around with these 25 year old stories, do you ever hear me talk about when you ran on me when BMF pulled up? When you ran in the hotel, they chased you to the beach. And lucky, I had my s*** on me and my man Jojo.
Starting point is 01:09:53 I ain't gonna say his name. Who was with me was like, who want these s*** coming? But at the end of the day, I don't be out there pumping. They chased you to the beach, s*** was in the sand. You was getting wet from the water, from the ocean. I don't pump that. So where was he at? You watched me run to the sand. He was getting wet from the water from the ocean. I don't pump that. So where was he at? If you watched me run to the beach, where was you? Where was Cam
Starting point is 01:10:11 at? I don't know. I mean I don't understand. This is a valid question. My personal opinion if you're about to get jumped, there's nothing wrong with running. You should skedaddle. We've seen your video. You damn right. I it again. Exactly. Each and every time. I'm not standing there. Pretend I got a gun? Try that one next time. Try that one next time. I will say that I hate that the fact that they're going back and forth and they're downplaying each other but Jim is no sucker and Cam'ron is no sucker. I've seen both of them in action and both of them are no suckers. You know what I mean? So I hate that they're playing like each other's a sucker and each other's soft. They're both no suckers. They both was ready for action during that time. Well, Jim actually responded. He posted a freestyle.
Starting point is 01:10:52 He said, I said what I said after they laughed at the lies, the truth still hurts. And that's the part that's going crazy on social right now. Like you taught me how to rap, but now I'm going platinum. Hey, Jim Jones can make some good ass music. I don't get what y'all say. Yeah, I see Ken. That sample was fire, heat, fire, allall see can that sample is fire heat fire all that Maybe that's what they both that's maybe that's what cam need to do. You think cam?
Starting point is 01:11:09 Yeah, I'm still got it, too though I know what I'm saying do you think this will make him go in the booth and you know He'd be opening his show with the freestyle I don't know can be spinning can be a camera Jim go back and forth for a while I don't even like cam and Jim going back and forth like this. Yeah Okay, cam still rap the same. What? Cam and Jim go back and forth rapping a while. I don't even like Cam and Jim going back and forth like this, but you know. Yeah, okay. Cam still rap the same? What? Oh yeah, Cam nice.
Starting point is 01:11:27 Cam busy. No, I remember when he used to do that. Cam is one of the nicest MCs that people don't talk about. He gets busy, like crazy. If you listen to, like you say, he starts off his show sometimes when he just do like two minutes of freestyling. Jesus.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Okay. I'm sad still. Yeah, it's still after up there. We had to call Jim. Reach out, will you? I got you. Reach out. Yeah, reach out. I'm still. Yeah, it's still after we had to call Jim. Reach out. I got you. I got you. Brown girl, grind the sources.
Starting point is 01:11:51 Reach out to this man for me. What are we gonna say when I call him? Hey Jim, just want to know. Why you put that voice on? Why you put that voice on? Relax. Why you put that voice on? Relax.
Starting point is 01:11:59 What did she say? Why did Chrissy pick up the phone and be like, what was with y'all? I sent y'all little young asses. Chrissy in Miami. We ain't right. We in New York. We in New York. Wait. I'm calling for Jess. All right. Well, that was Jess with the mess.

We live a life where we bite our tongue based off who we made a thing. We never will say anything. On The Breakfast Club. In the words of Charlamagne the guy, he's a donkey. He ain't got no mother******. Oh man Charlamagne, you giving donkey today to who now? Well Buster Rhymes Donkey the Day for Tuesday, January 14th goes to a 53 year old Florida man named Donald Calloway.
Starting point is 01:13:10 What does your Uncle Charla always say about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida and today is no exception. Now Donald is an animal lover, guys. Okay, yes, an animal lover. He's getting Donkey the Day. Tell everyone at PETA to gather around. An animal lover is getting Donkey the Day today, okay? I'm fully aware of what an animal lover. He's getting donkey today. Tell everyone at PETA to gather around.
Starting point is 01:13:25 An animal lover is getting donkey today today, okay? I'm fully aware of what an animal lover is. When I say animal lover, I mean one of those people who has a fondness for animals and cares for their well-being. Okay, Donald is very fond of animals. Some animal lovers may also be concerned with animal rights and the protection of animal species. I don't know if Donald cares about animal rights
Starting point is 01:13:45 But I would assume he does because of the love and fondness He shows animals. Okay Peter Peter folks. That's what it's all about. Right the love and fondness of animals I'm interested to see what Peter thinks of Donald because you know Peter goes hard for animal rights But I've never heard of anyone in Peter showing love to animals like Donald does. Okay I was looking at Peter's position on pets and Peter said it loves and respects the animal companions who share their homes. Well Donald loves the animal companions that are all around him and he shares a lot with them not just his home. Okay see a lot of y'all talk about your love for things but are you willing to put it all on the line?
Starting point is 01:14:19 Okay are you willing to put it all on the line for these things you claim to love? Would you die for your love of animals, would you be willing to give your life for animal rights? Is that too much? Okay Well, are you willing to go to jail for your love of animals because Donald Calloway is in fact Ready to go to jail for his love of animals. Okay, he loves animals so much that he was willing to take a penitentiary Chance for one. Do you want to hear what he went to jail for? Well, I will let a police officer from Florida explain what happened. Let's listen. I've done this job my entire adult life and occasionally you run across something that you go, come on man that really didn't happen. But it did. I
Starting point is 01:14:59 mean he even admitted it. And here's what happened. He said, well you know I had just some sexual frustration. It was really stupid. It was a dumb thing to do. Donald Calloway, who's 53 from Lake Wells, admitted that because he was trying to do the wow thing with a horse. A mare. The mare was 28 years old.
Starting point is 01:15:22 She said, hey. We tried to interview the horse. She said, my 28 years of being a horse, no one's ever done anything like that to me before and I hope it never happens again. That's right. He tried to engage in inappropriate conduct with a horse which is clearly against the law. Right now, he's out to pasture in the county jail. Florida is the most unserious, serious place ever. That was an actual police officer from Florida.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Who interviewed the horse? He was talking to TMZ. Okay. MV4 MV4. Yeah. Adonim was sexually frustrated, so he attempted to have sex with a horse. Let me give you a little bit more details.
Starting point is 01:16:04 First of all, I'm glad the horse was of age the horse was 28. So it's a grown-ass horse Okay, but things were still happening to this horse without the horses consent as far as we know We all watch mr. Ed growing up as a child if you were born in the 1900s Maybe this horse could talk. Okay, and she was an adult horse that knew what she wanted Maybe Donald Calloway have the same powers as dr. Doolittle and he can understand animals and they can understand him so the horse whose name was Raven fell for his ribs whatever it was you know made Donald pull his penis out and started boxing the one-eyed champ then he started tapping
Starting point is 01:16:34 that beef whistle whistle against the horse's nose and he attempted to penetrate said nostrils with his penis yes he tried to put his penis in the horses nostrils. Ladies, I blame y'all. Y'all constantly talking about how you want a man that's hung like a horse. Well, Donald said damn I gotta see what that's hitting for. But this was a woman horse so that didn't make no sense. Now a human female body has three perfectly good holes then insert your blood sausage in, right? Mouth, booty, okay if it's a special occasion, and the vagina, right? A mare-grown female horse has the same. Wouldn't trust the mouth, okay? Horse got teeth. Might mistake it for baloney, pony foot, carrot. And you need a ladder to mount
Starting point is 01:17:20 that thing from the back unless it's laying down. So I guess that just leaves the nostrils of the horse. Look, I'm not judging. Times is hard out here. Maybe Donald has had enough for humans and he's trying to get with the horse because he heard people in relationships with horses have stable relationships. I don't know. I just know that animals, as far as we know, can't give consent. Right? As far as we know. No means no. In Donald's Donald's case knows means knows but when it comes to horses May means nay, so please give Donald Calloway the biggest he ha Raise Come on, okay, something's obvious, okay, This is meth head white. All right. Oh my god
Starting point is 01:18:08 Yeah, he was on a set of shameless exactly He definitely walked on the set of Breaking Bad. Absolutely. He looked like four different type of cult leaders all in the one. All right Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir. Yeah, that's just crazy. That's disgusting Yeah, nobody putting no penis in nobody's nostrils. And the nose though, like. You know what I'm saying? Alright, now when we come back, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:18:34 Now, TikTok will be banned in I think four or five days. Oh my god, no. So I want to open up the phone lines and ask, what will you miss about TikTok if anything? Now the reason this comes as a Question is when Shalom and you left the room 800 585 105 when Lauren was in the room just was here big Mac was here and they were talking about the things that they get From TikTok right like tick tock shop Lauren says she gets her wigs off tick tock shop. She says That is the problem. Now we talking.
Starting point is 01:19:02 I didn't know that. She said she gets her stuff off TikTok. That makes all the sense in the world. Big Mac said he went to college. He went to five different universities and he said he learned more on TikTok than he did in college. That's because he was there for the food. He wasn't there to study.
Starting point is 01:19:10 So asking, 800-585-1051 in four or five days TikTok will be gone. Five days, all right, on the 19th. How will losing TikTok affect you? Let's open up the phone lines and ask. 800-585-1051. How will losing TikTok affect you? How will losing TikTok affect you? How will losing TikTok affect you?

How will losing TikTok affect you? How will losing TikTok affect you? In 4 or 5 days, TikTok will be gone. 5 days. Alright, on the 19th. How will losing TikTok affect you?
Starting point is 01:19:27 Let's open up the phone lines and ask. 800-585-1051. Let's discuss this at the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic.
Starting point is 01:19:41 Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club topic. Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. Hey! Hey! Hey! That ain't calling my phone. Calling my phone.
Starting point is 01:19:50 Tell her, tell her! Man it! It's topic time. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with the Breakfast Club. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy Juscelaria, Charlamagne Nagaia. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:20:05 Now if you're just joining us, we'll open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. They are banning TikTok in five more days. Well, unless the US government changes that, but as of right now they are banning it. So we're just asking what will you miss? Now this conversation comes, we had Lauren LaRosa up here, we had Big Mac in here, Sydney was in here, me and Jess were talking, and we were talking about the banning of TikTok,
Starting point is 01:20:27 and somebody said that they get their wigs off of TikTok Shop. Let's go around the room and see who looks like, let's bring in all the women in here and see who looks like they get their wigs off TikTok. First of all, let's not even play around like that. Goofy. But, yo, anyway, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:20:45 I don't really, TikTok does nothing for me. So it wouldn't do anything for me. Like whether it's here or gone, you know, here or banned or gone or whatever. But I know my son, he's learned so much off of it. He's taught me so many things that he got like little rabbit holes. He went down from everything about software, what's going on. This little boy be telling me stuff that's going on in Russia, I don't know about, what's going on in China,
Starting point is 01:21:10 I don't know about, you know what I mean? So it's definitely informative. Right. I know the information is the top thing that people gonna miss about it. Yeah, my daughter, the oldest daughter, Madison, she gets her cooking recipes off of TikTok. Like she can make drinks from Starbucks by breaking it down on TikTok and not having to buy a
Starting point is 01:21:27 drink from Starbucks. My youngest daughters, they actually go on there because they dance, they compete dance, they watch other little girls that compete dance, so they learn dances from there. Jackson does his video game on there, so if there's a stage he can't pass, he'll go to TikTok and then to show them how to pass that stage or whatever it may be. So they're into it. Myself, I don't, I could care less. I just post just to post.
Starting point is 01:21:48 Charlamagne. It wouldn't do anything for me either. I'm not a TikTok connoisseur, but I understand the importance of TikTok to a lot of people, which is why ByteDance shouldn't shut it down. If it's banned, they should just go ahead and sell it to Frank McCord and Project Liberty. Frank McCord and Project Liberty, they've been wanting to buy it for a long time. You know, it's just interesting to me to watch all of these conversations, I guess ramp up down,
Starting point is 01:22:07 because it's like four days away, and you know, you got Meek Mill saying he... Nah, ban it. If he's wanted to... Meeks ain't gonna buy it. Ban it. Before they give it to Meek, nah, ban it. Yeah, I think you know how you walk in a restaurant
Starting point is 01:22:20 and it ain't got no prices on the menu? That's how Meek is treating it. Meek is like, let me buy a TikTok. I think you need to find out how much it costs for us, Meek. You know what I'm saying? But Frank McCourt and Project Liberty, they are really serious about buying it. They want to buy it and actually make it safer for Americans.
Starting point is 01:22:36 So, I mean, let's see. And they only want to buy, they're only buying the American portion of it. And that's 170 million people on there. So I would rather them sell it to Frank McCourt and Project Liberty but we'll see. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello who's this? Hi this is Bria, calling from Detroit. Hey Bria what up though? Hi, I've never really used TikTok. I've never known how to work TikTok like to make TikTok but I use it just when I travel so like when I go to like

Okay, that makes sense. Thank you, Brea. Thank you, bye bye. Well, you know, we're actually live on TikTok right now,

Starting point is 01:30:37 because they banned me so many times during COVID, talking about vaccines and things like that. So I'm not really concerned, but it's gonna be unbanned on the 20th anyway by Trump. Okay, thank you sir. Yeah, because Trump gonna unban it and then make them sell it. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:30:52 Yo, this is Chris Complex from Inglewood, New Jersey. Chris, what up? We're talking about the ban of TikTok in the next four or five days. What's your thoughts? Yo, I don't like it, man. I ain't gonna lie, my girls just cook Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas dinner off recipes off the TikTok shop.
Starting point is 01:31:06 And I learned mad stuff. Like they didn't teach them history. You know, it got like, I like tuning into the history that I didn't know about. Like the half of the African diaspora. I learned about a queen in Africa that actually sold off some of the slaves in her land that you know they didn't pay taxes or something that he didn't do but those are the people that she
Starting point is 01:31:32 told the European colonizers come they can take so it was like the video was about understanding slavery but it wasn't all just like taking it was like people going over there and they can deal with the kings and queens of Africa. Well, this was the video queen and then that's how some of the slaves got took over here. So it made me think about it. Like there's some Africans or black people that's really like this place, the Samuel L Jackson role in the Django, like he's going to tell or he's going to get the next person set up.
Starting point is 01:32:01 But history stuff like that can't find or it's not really advertised anywhere else so tiktok i used to love it because quick short 15 second videos whatever okay well thank you brother so he's he's he found out that africa was involved in the slave trade on tiktok yes yeah yeah don't judge him don't judge him i mean i guess you learn things when you learn things when you learn that in school he learned it on. He learned it on TikTok in 15 seconds. That's right. And he also took his wife out to cook. Told his wife how to cook.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Basically he's saying that she couldn't cook before that. That's right. Slavery also existed in Africa before the Europeans arrived. But I guess you gotta wait for a TikTok for that. Yeah. OK. All right. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:32:42 This is Black Gold. Black Gold, what up? We're talking about the bad end of TikTok. What you gonna miss? Man, look, I'm gonna miss all the informational stuff, man. Like, I f***ing hate cooking. But since I've been watching TikTok, now my food's actually been tasting good, man.
Starting point is 01:32:57 According to who? According to me, I know. I cook like white bland people from LA. I'm gonna just keep it real. But you gotta let somebody else taste it to see if it's really hitting though. Well, I don't really let people eat my cooking, man. My girl, she gonna agree with me anyway,
Starting point is 01:33:13 because that's my girl, but everybody else, I'm good. I know what bland food tastes like. So I know if it's bland, watching these TikTok videos of the people in the South, oh my God, it tastes good to me. That's all I want. Do you have a white girlfriend? I'm happy about that.
Starting point is 01:33:27 Yeah, I'm happy. You got a white girlfriend? Hell no. No, but come on, man. Look. Oh, wow. I don't know who you are, Black man. I'm a gang member.

They can just sell it to Project Liberty. Like, they wanna buy the US portion of the platform, okay? But will that change things though? The US portion, are we still gonna be able
Starting point is 01:34:29 to access certain things on the app? I actually think it'll be better. What Frank wants to do in Project Liberty, they wanna buy the US portion of the platform, but it doesn't include TikTok's algorithm, and they want to migrate TikTok's user base, the 170 million people to an American built digital infrastructure designed to put people
Starting point is 01:34:50 back in charge of their data. So we'll be in charge of our data, not some foreign entity. Let me ask you guys a question, right? I'm looking and people are giving us gifts on the Breakfast Club. Where'd that money go? I know, right?

Starting point is 01:36:07 get you to see. It's time to set it all. All right, so G3 signed with Def Jam. Eight million dollar bill. I mean, deal. Yeah. But there's some other things going on. Yeah, G3, we not calling him L'Angelo no more.
Starting point is 01:36:15 He's G3. It's going to be a bill that's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal.
Starting point is 01:36:23 It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's going to be a deal. It's bill, I mean deal. Yeah, some other things going on. Yeah, G3, we not calling him L'Angelo no more, he's G3. It's gonna be a bill if he don't sell no records. Nah, that's exactly what we're here for right now because yesterday we broke the exclusive in the room that he was signed. $8 million was the number that we mentioned and if people have been doing breakdowns of what the deal actually extends into.
Starting point is 01:36:43 Now, I want to provide a timeline. So I reached out to a person familiar who understood and kind of got to see some of the, you know, the situation and they gave me the timeline of how the deal even came about some of the other offers that LiAngelo was offered as well too. But I want to start with last Friday because I'm past the aux you knew last Friday. Why you ain't tell us? Let's just say somebody told me yesterday he got signed. I don't know how true that is though
Starting point is 01:37:06 Somebody was signing because it's a record that's just taking off and people want to be on it. Somebody told me Yes, nice hook. Yep. They got some money to really somebody told me yesterday, so I don't you know Hmm. Well, how it is now these nowadays these labels want to sign somebody and say keep doing your thing though We act like you independent. I don't know. This is true want to sign somebody and say, keep doing your thing though. We act like you're independent. So I don't know. This is true. Yeah, so January 3rd, right, the song dropped.
Starting point is 01:37:28 When the song dropped, after that weekend, the song went crazy. Pastor Aux happened that following Friday. That week in between the song dropping and Pastor Aux, that's the week when everything was moving. So I'm told that the first deal that L'Angelo got the call for was $75,000. It was a smaller label.
Starting point is 01:37:43 I don't know the name of the label. It was a smaller label. They wanted to do a name of the label. It was a smaller label. They wanted to do a distribution deal with him. So he was like, mm, I don't think so. But the fact that labels are even calling, let's shop around a little bit and see what, you know what I mean? What we can make happen, right?
Starting point is 01:37:54 So then the fires happened. So he's having meetings, he's having a conversation. The fires in LA happened, so everything shuts down. After everything kind of like comes back a little bit and they start taking meetings again, Universal was on the line. again Universal was on the line When Universal's on the line, I'm told that the first offer that Universal sent his way allegedly was four million dollars off the rip four million So he's like, well, you know, I kind of got a little bit of motion. The song is going crazy
Starting point is 01:38:17 Let me leverage it a bit more then the seven happened and then they ended at the eight now right now A lot of people are saying well the eight is in advance It's not guaranteed it could go up to 13 million. Now what I'm told, and this is not for his specific situation, but just looking at how these deals normally go with a person in his position who's already been famous and does have a little bit of motion prior to, is that even if that eight isn't advanced all the way up front, it can come over periods of time. So he's still going to get the money. He can use it to go into whatever other songs he's supposed to have another project on the way. This deal is supposed to be him owning all of his music
Starting point is 01:38:48 and being able to fund and create his own label. He can use it across that. And then they have option periods where after certain things happen, whether the option is like two projects or six months or whatever, they come back and say, yo, in this option period, you did A, B, C, and D. Let's see if we want to spend a block. And that 13 million is that they already had that budgeted, but he can come back and say, well, actually I did this within that period. Now I'm recouped. I want to make some more money.
Starting point is 01:39:11 I want some more ownership. This seems like a lot of money. Yes, a lot. And it seems a bit premature for a record that hasn't even charted yet. Pull a hook. That's what I said yesterday. It seems like a lot.
Starting point is 01:39:20 Unless they heard something that we haven't heard as of yet, unless he has another artist that we don't know but that sounds like old hypebeasts in the Def Jam building. Yeah I was ready to say that's a lot. What's the last thing that Def Jam has really done though like to like art did they have any poppin artists in the last what? That's a great question. You know what I'm saying? Yeah I think wasn't the Snoop Dogg they did they brought Snoop Dogg in to do some stuff right? I think that's I think that was over. I mean. I think Snoop left him when they go do Death Row. That's the last time I heard about them, honestly, news-wise. What young artists and who's popping right now on Def Jam? And I will say, too, are you looking it up? You see anything?
Starting point is 01:39:58 G3 pops up. G3. Well, I will say, so I asked that same question, I'm like, not a little premature, Coco Jones, they came up last year with LL, they came up with, I'm trying to think who it was when I seen Def Jam reps up here. Recently too, somebody was recently, that's probably money long when they came up recently. But see that's still R&B artists, you know what I'm saying, like singers, they probably putting all of this on him because they like I like I said yesterday
Starting point is 01:40:26 They saying all these celebrities and they probably see in the future of all the remixes too Yeah, is it G Herbo with that? Like for me I was like the same thing y'all were saying but I will say yesterday when we broke that story in his room That news went so crazy so fast I think it's part of what people didn't believe there was like what and then other another part of it is I will say yesterday when we broke that story in his room, that news went so crazy so fast. I think part of it was people didn't believe it. It was like, what? And then another part of it is he's a conversation point.
Starting point is 01:40:50 And what I was told is normally in a situation like this, when you come and you have that type of influence, a label will not just look at, okay, what songs are gonna chart. It's like, yo, what the brand deal's looking like? What the sink's gonna look like? They can make money and recoup other ways off of it. You think G3 sign to 360
Starting point is 01:41:06 That's what you're trying to say. I don't know for sure I'm just saying that that sometimes this is how they can look at it But I mean look he I was on a 360 about him because he's still a ball player So he might have other endorsements and stuff in the future Maybe but there's other ways like Armani white to sign a Def Jam You might not have heard his record in a minute, but I hear it all through the playoffs Yeah, so they use it for licensing. Benny the Butcher signed there.
Starting point is 01:41:28 Big Sean is signed there. And licensing is a part of his deal. That is a part of his deal, I do know that. Buju, Buju Bontani signed there. Coco Jones, Connie Diamond. All I know is we putting Jess in the studio. Okay, we got a record to record. We gotta get this money.
Starting point is 01:41:43 Friday is there, RBC on Friday. Already got it. Of course, Jadakiss, trying to a record to record. Yeah, I get this money. Friday is there Jadakiss trying to get anybody else Janae Iko. Yeah, okay. Yes Oh, yeah, I mean lady London so like just saying what have they done in a minute? Well in other news real quick Caitlin Clark some sad news with Caitlin Clark she's okay But there was a 55 year old man who's actually just been arrested on Sunday for felony stalking news. Real quick, Caitlin Clark, some sad news with Caitlin Clark. She's okay, but there was a 55 year old man who's actually just been arrested on Sunday for felony stalking. When it comes to her, he was arrested in Indianapolis on Sunday after he repeatedly kept sending her threats, sexually violent messages and other messages on social media. He sent her different tweets. These tweets happened from December 16 to January 2. Basically, he actually
