Okay. That makes sense. Thank you. DJ and V, you're so kind to me. It's almost as if Charlamagne is not my best friend it's almost as if you are really yeah first of all last week you know what never mind start the show all right well Notori Norton will be joining us she has a flick that's coming out this weekend called 88 keys it's it's not 88 keys stop getting the name of my movie right wrong it's called 88 okay and it's in theaters today.

I'm the executive producer and actually I was going to say all that. Can I say that? Let me give you your flowers. Give me everything you got this morning. See, you play too much. Now I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it now. 88, the movie's coming out this weekend. Executive produced by, I don't know, some little short guy that says he looks like

Morris Chestnut. I don't say that. You do say that. No. Morris Chestnut. I don't say that. First of all. You do say that. No. Morris Chestnut. No. No, no, no. Morris Chestnut says that. No. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Do we have the clip ready? No. Do we have the clip? No. Morris Chestnut said that. Thank God we don't have that clip. Okay. Of course you don't have it.

Can I say that when Morris Chestnut did say that accidentally when he was under the influence, Charlamagne sent me the link. He was like, just so you know. I was like, oh, you're happy. My goodness. You're real, real happy. So? So?

All right. We got front page news. We'll tell you about your president. He went to the doctor. I'll tell you how everything worked out for him. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlemagne, the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our guest host, Carrie Champion, here. And let's get in some front page news. Now, Adam Silver was talking about referees making bad calls and if they get disciplined for making these bad calls and this is what he said well first of all they are absolutely held accountable um we we don't publicize um discipline for officials we

don't think that would be appropriate but their assignments are affected by the quality of their calls um whether or not they progress into the playoffs and then round by round is impacted by the accuracy of their calls and their demeanor on the floor so there is a system for overseeing and making those judgments about our officials i highly disagree with that you know i mean i think the same public shame that players get that coaches get when they make mistakes referees should get to they They're on the court. They're a part of the game. So why not? Like what?

What do you mean why not? The same public shame that players and coaches get. Well, they should get fined. Fined for making a bad call? Listen, I hear you. For missing a call? You know how they have a stat line? I thought about this the other day. They have a stat line for players when they have, we know that Draymond's been ejected a lot in the finals.

Too many teams you can't play. They need to have a stat line for these refs who consistently, not all of them, but those who consistently make mistakes. Make bad calls. Yeah. They need to, they should be fired. No, they should be fired. If they consistently make bad calls,

that means they might need some better glasses or their eyes are off or something. Well, that's how you hold them accountable, right? By holding them accountable by saying, this guy did this however many times. Like, LeBron's foul was crazy. Like, that was insane. Yeah, that was foul. Because if you get a certain amount of technicals,

you got to miss certain games. You get suspended, yeah. You get suspended. You get ejected. I just remember the playoffs with Draymond. He got, I think, a tech twice, a tech three times, and he had to miss the last game.

And we don't even know these refs' names. You know what I mean? We should know their names. Absolutely. If you publicly shame them, at least we'll know their names and everything that is a fact now also uh joe biden the president went to the doctor yesterday and they said everything was fine they said he was healthy and vigorous ain't no way and i know ain't no way i'm 44 and i got a

little bit of high cholesterol i watched your knee this morning too you saw your knee turned when my knee turned i'm kidding oh knee turn? I'm kidding. Oh. They said he's good. They checked his head, his ears, his eyes, his nose, his throat and everything was normal. It's impossible. It's impossible. He ain't queen of four. He ain't been

plant-based. Living a holistic lifestyle his whole existence. No, it's impossible. But he did speak yesterday about those balloons. Did you know that one of those balloons they shot down was like a $29.99 balloon from a hobby store and they shot it down with a $400,000 missile you believed it what I'm saying you believe that story you believe that it was a $29.99 uh from a hobby store yeah no one of them you don't think so no well he talks about the balloons we don't yet know exactly what these three objects were but nothing nothing right now suggests they were related to China's spy balloon

program or that they were surveillance vehicles from any other country. In addition, I've directed my national security advisor to lead a government-wide effort to make sure we are positioned to deal safely and effectively with the objects in our airspace. We briefed our diplomatic partners and our allies around the world, and we know about China's program and where their balloons have flown. I expect to be speaking with President Xi, and I hope we're going to get to the bottom of this. But I make no apologies for taking down that balloon. They already told us it's not from another country. They already told us it's not from China. They said they probably won't find the wreckage.

So what is it? I thought they said they found the wreckage. That's why they was able to say that one that came from my office. I heard it all this morning on the news. They said they probably weren't going to be able to recover the wreckage. Well, first of all, they're not telling us everything. That's right. So why are we acting as if you're saying like what they said, they said.

None of this we know. We know none of this. I feel in fact, in fact, all I know for a fact is that they're lying. That's right. We are being hoodwinked and bamboozled. Okay? And I want all of us to know that, as always, there's something bigger than us going on. And y'all can keep acting like this is normal.

But it's not. Okay? Three unidentified flying objects got shot down by half a million dollar missiles over America and Canada. And y'all worried about NBA All-Star weekend. Who worried? Who worried about NBA All-Star? Everybody. Bet you didn't got an outfit

for NBA All-Star weekend. That's this weekend, right? I'm flying out there today at 1 o'clock. What are you doing? I'll be out there. I got a couple of parties. It's going to be a lot of fun.

You're not going? I am, but are you DJing? I am DJing a bunch of events. I'm going to Kenny's party. Of course. I got to go to Kenny's party. Because you say Kenny Smith, y'all in here saying

Because you say Kenny Smith, y'all in here saying dropping names on a first name basis like everybody knows who you're talking about. Shaq usually does something big. So does Jordan. What are you doing? Who's Jordan? Claudia or Michael?

When people didn't happen, but thank you, Trav. But everybody's story is hard. No, no, I'm going to tell you some real stuff. When people come up here, I ask who they are because nobody's supposed to be up here at certain times. Just like the gentleman that snuck up here that time.

Remember that dude that snuck up here and started working? Dude snuck up here, started working. Nobody knew who he was. And no one said anything. You was here. No, that's the time when Jay Jones had to throw him out. No, not that time. I'm talking about the time when the dude actually came up here.

And the only reason we knew is because he was like, my mom don't like you. You remember that? Oh, I do remember that. Dude came up here and started working. I speak to the dude. Hey, what's up? He's like, yeah, my mom don't like Charlamagne. But what did that one time got to do with everybody?

Everybody who comes up here, I ask them, yo, what are you doing up here? Who are you? Tell me. Everybody has a story about my canary-colored comrade. Everybody. Everybody has a story. You in my space, I want to know who you are. Who are you, sir? Because you're not supposed to be up here. Nobody's supposed to

be in this vicinity this morning. Who are you? Maybe you're invited. No, nobody's invited. What were you wearing? Pink? If strange men are always finding themselves in your space, whose fault is that? You victim? You victim blaming? Yes, I am. Get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. When you look and then somebody's walking in out of nowhere and you're like, oh, he's running with them. And that's the carry champion right now because carry champion, respectfully, is a beast in this sort of game. So right now, Ray is in trouble because a beast in this sort of game.

So right now, Ray is in trouble because Carrie Champion is not that big that she wants to position herself on any of them. What are you talking about? She can come in and win the game for a team. Triple double already, my G. Jesus Christ. She's dunking. She's shooting from half court. She's doing all that.

I'm shooting from the logo. Thank you, my man. I appreciate it. And one last thing. One day, McC going to call back. Show me you're a funny guy. Because when he's on his radio, I'm sending this to the public, talking about his anxiety level. We went to the same gym pre-pandemic for a couple of times.

And you can see that the brother's anxiety level was that. Because if you came in and he was looking at you, like, yo, who are you, man? Not that you even approached. But I'll call back and tell that story another time. So he wasn't nice to you in the gym? Did he speak to you? Did he say hello? No, no, no, no. He wasn't nice.

You could just see that he had it lined up. I don't know if I looked a certain type of way, but the gym was in like the two floors. Solomon, you know the one. Yeah, you're talking about when 24 Hour Fitness was open on right on 17 did he walk up behind you

as you were working out well there was a crunch machine right when you come down by the steps right and there was a couple and you know

I was the first time and I'm coming down and I'm looking he's in a crunch machine and I walked past and didn't pause actually didn't even know

it was him but then he just stopped and just looked over his left shoulder and I'm looking. He's in a crunch machine and I walked past and didn't pause. I actually didn't even know it was him, but then he just stopped and just looked over his left shoulder and I'm like, looking at me like, yo, fuck you. And I'm like, uh... Well, you know why. Y'all seen me get punched in the back of the head on camera, so that crunch machine

was in a weird place. You can't see who coming up behind you. You know what I'm saying? You were like that on the treadmill as well. You were being your own boss. Somebody left you alone pretty much. Somebody can get you on the treadmill. You're making excuses, bro.

I'm not making excuses. I've just been punching the back of the head before. I've been dealing with car jack. I ask about everybody. First of all. What? What does a car have to do with anything? Anything.

Now, one time did a person say that you slided them in a car? Okay. What he's saying is that he's careful. There you go. He's just being careful. Yes. That's all he's saying. Yes.

But in public places like that, yes, my anxiety level do be on 100. It do. It do. 800-585-105. Well, we got rumors on the way. We got to tell you about us. We got to tell you about Sam Smith. He got cursed out of New York.

Welcome. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Real quick, we got Notori Notting coming next hour, right? Yep, next hour. She's here to talk about the movie 88 that I'm the executive producer of. I just want to tell New York City that I bought out of theater.

I saved enough for a quarter in my Crown Royal bag. So tonight at 7.15 p.m. at the Village East by Angelica, 189 2nd Avenue in New York. 7.15 p.m. screening. First come, first serve. We just got an RSVP to 88screeningrsvp at gmail.com. Yeah, so I don't know why he gave the address. Do not go there. RSVP first.

RSVP first. He gives the address. First come, first serve. Jesus. RSVP first. Yeah, because you want to get in address. First come, first serve. Jesus. RSVP first. You want to get in. Let's get to the rumors. Let's go. Rumor has it. Rumor has it. Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty.

I'm gossiping. This is the rumor report. I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club. This is where the tea spills, right? Yes, on The Breakfast Club. Well, Sam Smith was in New York City. You know, he performed at the Grammys, what, about a week ago? When he performed, his performance was kind of demonic.

It was devils popping out all over the place. Yeah, I think that was the point, though. Yeah. Because the song is called Unholy. Yeah, well, when he got here, New Yorkers welcomed him. You belong in hell! Sam Smith belongs in hell! You demonic twisted sick bastard

Leave the kids alone you sick Sam Smith is a pedophile Who's robbing the kids Robbing the kids You sick mother f***er Sam Smith Did somebody yell rumors? That's the craziest part If you call somebody a pedophile,

you're supposed to say lies, not rumors. I can't be able to yell back rumors. I'm not condemning anybody to hell. Not true, rumors. Yeah, rumors. The song is called Unholy, though. I think the whole point of the performance was to be devilish.

I never even heard that song until then, by the way. Do you listen to Sam Smith? I mean, sometimes, but not that record. Sometimes when? When he used to be devilish. I never even heard that song until then, by the way. Do you listen to Sam Smith? I mean, sometimes, but not that record. Sometimes when? When he used to be Adele. No, I did. I used to listen to Sam Smith

when he used to be Adele. When did he used to be Adele? When he first came out, he used to be Adele. Wait a second. You never used to see Adele and Sam Smith in the same room. That's insulting to Adele.

Are you saying Sam Smith is beautiful? No. One of the two? No. Either way. No. There was a point in time we thought they were the same person. No, you did. Careful Lemon. Careful Lemon. Careful Lemon.

Careful Lemon. Careful Mr. Lemon. Glorilla was performing and you know sometimes when people perform they throw panties. I've seen drinks, they throw hats. Well, somebody threw a whole jacket at her. Who the f*** threw that?

Who threw it? Who the f*** threw that? Who threw it? Show them what you said, bro. You look good, girl. Don't tell me s*** that's in me. Don't tell me that's in me. They need me in my face. Don't tell me that's in me. She said, look, little girl, don't throw no more. But she threw her whole jacket and then they had to throw it back because I guess she realized I need that jacket back because it's cold outside. Oh, I was thinking it was for her, for Glorilla.

I thought it was something she made for her or something. This is getting out of hand, though. I don't like the throwing things at people. Because people are literally throwing feces. Like, you could be doing anything now to anybody. That's getting out of hand. What if I think you did? So I threw the feces at you. Oh, my goodness.

What was the point of the jacket? I don't know. I don't know why she threw the jacket. I guess she got excited and just wanted to throw something. You want to tell her to hang it up? I don't know. Hang it up. I don't know.

Da-dun-dun. Yeah. I don't know. And lastly. What?, some sad news. Bruce Willis, the family of Bruce Willis announced that the actor is suffering from a form of dementia. There's no treatment. He's 67 years old. That's young, bro.

Today, the family said today there are no treatments for this disease, a reality that we hope can change in years ahead. As Bruce's condition advances, we hope that any media attention can be focused on shining a light on this disease. Very sad. Damn. Definitely send the healing energy to Bruce Willis and his family. But man, you think about it. Bruce Willis, 67. He's been diagnosed with dementia.

My cholesterol a little bit high. And the White House trying to tell us ain't nothing wrong with your body. Nothing. He's enough. He's the perfect bill of health. He is. What are house trying to tell us ain't nothing wrong with your body nothing he's enough he's a perfect bill of health he is what are they gonna tell you the truth they're gonna tell you where the chinese balloons are and they're gonna tell you about his health you're right you're right i feel sorry for bruce willis i definitely it's unfortunate and i have a i have a my best friend her her father has early forms of dementia it's it's even more difficult on the people who are caring for the loved one absolutely oh yeah because he forgets who he forgets who people are so imagine you know somebody you love forgetting that you're their child you know i mean are you and the way they

react to that correct the way they react to not knowing who the person is who is in their house so he walks in he sees his wife i don't know who you are who are you why are you here and depending on the form of dementia or how how grave it is your reaction can be either violent or it could be sad or it could be hysterical it could be a range of emotions which is why this disease is so difficult right more than any other because you can't there's obviously no treatment for it but you can't really identify why they react to you that way so you have to learn to adjust your entire lifestyle around them are there any preventive measures you know there was a i read a study a long time ago that said if you were and i don't know how true this is but they said math problems that's one thing when people

start having alzheimer's they start in in forms of dementia they used to make people do math problems simple basic math problems because it exercises your brain like like tables you know time tables division man don't say that no they said that I said don't say that because I ain't been able to do a math problem in 30 years oh no I'm right

okay they went to the doctor they said well it seems like it's early signs and next day he went to work and couldn't figure out how to get home he was stuck on the side of the road didn't know where didn't know how to make the turns or nothing like that. He laid a path from dementia as well. You died from dementia? Yeah, I guess not. My mother-in-law didn't want to eat. Oh, you didn't want to eat. You forget the basics.

The basics, yeah. The basics. Literally the basics. How to use the bathroom. You don't even know. Oh, you don't know how old you are. You don't know your first and last name. Y'all scaring the hell out of me.

Well, no. Because some of this stuff just comes with age, too. It does. A lot of this stuff y'all describing. It does, but it's more severe. Yeah. And you see it in a way. It's the way they respond to it.

It's really true. My friend said she has to write for her dad every day, what day it is, on the board. She has to write his first and last name. She has to tell him where he is. Like, you are here in this location right now. Because they wake up disoriented they have no not they as in everyone but some the way it shows itself you don't know where you are could you imagine waking up and not knowing where you are that's that's insane i'd say

i know we got to go but one time we were on a flight and my mother-in-law woke up and thought she was at work see she was like i gotta go downstairs and go to work and it was like no ma you're on a plane she was like no no no job's downstairs and go to work. And we was like, no, Ma, you're on a plane. She was like, no, no, no. Job's downstairs. I got to go downstairs. Ma, you can't go. If you go downstairs, none of us alive. But then the thing that hurt my wife so much is during that whole time, she did not know who her daughter was. But she knew who I was, which was weird. She knew who I was, but didn't know who I was.

But anyway, when we come back, we got front page news. We'll tell you about your president. He went to the doctor. We'll tell you what happened when he went. And also, Don Lemon. He's out here choosing violence. Don Lemon want all the smoke with all the women in the world. Oh my goodness. We'll talk about it

next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Today's broadcast is brought to you by Crown Royal. Thank you, Crown, for showing us all great things that came from Canada, like hockey, basketball, lacrosse, and even the way we play football. Nothing's as American as Canadian stuff we love.

Our cheers to that. Please drink responsibly. Good morning, everybody. It's D.J. Envy, Charlemagne, the guy we are, The Breakfast Club. Our co-host, Kerry Champion, is here. Hey. And let's get in some front page news. Now, if you were concerned about Joe Biden, your president,

he is doing okay. He went to the doctor and they said he's healthy and vigorous. They did his head, his ears, his eyes, his nose and throat and everything was normal. By the way, they're not going to tell us that anything is wrong

because he's the president of the United States of America. But we know that's a lie. That man is 176 years old. Okay. My cholesterol is a little bit high. All right. You just heard Bruce Willis

diagnosed with dementia. You think nothing wrong with joe biden like nothing like ain't nothing wrong it's a perfect bill of health john federman just had a little checked in for depression yeah but but but with federman that's because that's one of the common causes after you have the type of stroke stroke yeah yes so but and biden's 80 years old, you can't be out here calling people the wrong ages. What? He's 80. What'd you call him? 90?

He said 107. Stupid. By the way, I can't wait to get to 87 years old. I'm just saying there has to be. He's got to have something. I guess they can't just be perfect. They said no findings that would be consistent with stroke or Parkinson's disease. Only person I'm believing that about that's older is Queen of Full

and Minister Farrakhan. Other than that, no. This is some sad news. A 12-year-old dies after he collapsed during football practice out in Jersey. Very sad, so condolences to the family. They said it took the ambulance like over 30 minutes to get there.

Now the problem was the family is saying that all youth sports coaches should be trained in CPR. So the young boy collapsed and pretty much died and nobody could actually help him. The mom said she was at her house, got the other three siblings ready and got down to the field and the ambulance still wasn't

there. Jesus Christ. It appears no one knew CPR and they couldn't get the ambulance there in time. Were there cardiovascular issues? They don't know but they couldn't get the ambulance there in time. The cardiovascular issues? They don't know, but they couldn't resuscitate him, though. Nobody knew how to. Yeah, well, to me, that should be a qualification. You're a coach.

Anybody out there in any type of practice, as we saw on Monday Night Football. That's right. That's imperative. That's imperative. That's shocking to me. But I will say this. Now, I agree wholeheartedly if they're big teams. But the problem is, is like I coached my daughter's basketball team before, right?

And I ran, you know, practices and I don't know CPR. And I was just thinking about it at first. I was like, yeah, she's absolutely right. But, you know, sometimes when these parents volunteer, they don't know CPR. They're just doing it to help out. And if one of those girls would have passed out, I wouldn't know what to do. There's not a sports team in America who shouldn't have a medic. Like, medic should be the basics, coaches and by the way a certification is like

a day in 20 minutes no you're right I should do it I need to do it maybe we should have somebody come up here and teach us CPR yes why you I promise to god he winked at me just now yo you saw him red what are you talking about promise to god you didn't wink at me just now I don't promise that was ridiculous I should go to hr for that that was wow now you want to go to hr wow now you want to go to hr he said now you he's he's offended that you want to go to hr and by the way somebody did come up here and show us how to do that one time they came up here with the whole dummy and everything remember they had the whole yeah yeah yeah the whole dummy that you had to put your mouth on it do you remember how to do it a little bit meaning i can't sit here and act like i i don't i could figure it out well you

got to clear the passageway right you remember that you go check the mouth you got to do that with your finger you swipe through definitely don't remember that part now where they're not where they're not choking on their tongue and then you tilt the chin up and then that's when you can proceed to breathe in and breathe out like that and you listen to it and you pound on the chest i remember the chest part that's what we did was a chest part yeah i remember where to do the chest part i don't i never heard about the clearing of the mouth. Well, no one's going to do that anymore now because of COVID, but yeah, that was one of the things that I learned, but they may have changed it.

Can't save my life? Nah, you might have COVID. You worried about getting COVID? Can you imagine? Look, $35 for CPR certification. $35. You trying to tell me none of those coaches had that? I know. I didn't have it when I was coaching.

And that was basketball. And I had, what, 12 girls on the team. With the way you hear people dying of cardiovascular issues and stuff now, everybody should learn. Everybody. I'm going to learn. I got six kids. I definitely should learn. And it's not even a cardiovascular issue.

Even with DeMar, it was like the way you were hit, the way he actually hit that other player. There was no cardiac. I thought it impacted his heart, though. It did, but he didn't have cardiac issues is what i'm saying oh gotcha yeah yes yes yes so my point is everyone should know in general i'm sorry let's let's sign up right now you're ready i will yeah i mean we could do it on there and actually that would be great to do it on air who taught us was it dr oz that came up and told us that before? I think it was Dr. Oz. I think it was Dr. Oz. I think it was Dr. Oz. And lastly, Don Lemon.

Uh-oh. No, he chose violence. Don Lemon wants all the smoke. And he's talking about women in their prime or not. Oh, the talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think it's the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians or something are not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn't in her prime.

Sorry. A woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe 40s that's not that's not according to me prime for what it depends it's just like prime if you look it up it'll if you look if you google when is a woman in her prime it'll say 20s 30s and 40s i don't necessarily know i got it i agree with that so i think she has to be careful about saying that politicians aren't in their prime. I think they need to qualify. Are you talking about prime for like child-rearing? Or are you talking about prime for being president? Oh, the messenger got shot.

Let's talk about, let's give it some context. He was talking about Nikki Haley, who announced she's running for president. And she was calling for mental competency tests for folks over 75. So, you know, Don thought he was going to get headlines for throwing shots at Nikki Haley. And Don thought he was going to get headlines for coming to the defense of his president, Joe Biden. And he used a nuclear weapon to attempt to kill a roach. He ended up bombing all women. And by the way, I did the Google.

And the only thing when you Google is Don Lemon and saying what he said today. He's like, Google it. And the Google is just you Don it's just it's just Don one of his calls you know said something real though she was like you know give that some context like in the prime for what like what are we talking about when you make that statement you're talking about having babies like you can't just make a blanket statement like that and not be specific about it and I think that's why but he didn't even I honestly don't believe he thought he was saying something right like you said you thought he was coming from Nikki then he apologizes and says it's an artful that was an artful for him to say that what

does that mean in art I have no idea but I know carry you are you come on you and your prime what does that mean your prime mean what is what does that mean well how do you feel about Don's statements? I feel like that's disrespectful. Here's one thing I do hate, and especially in the world in which we live in. But women often, by the time they get a certain age, are cast aside, right? It's just like, oh, she's old, which is so ridiculous. And then for whatever reasons, you men, when you get to a certain age,

you're more defined and handsome. Depends. A lot of brothers out here aging like milk. Some of us aging like wine because we're taking care of ourselves mentally, physically, spiritually, and emotionally. Not all brothers. I have this conversation often with people. They say men with money and older never age bad. This is what I've heard before.

If you're a man and you're older and you have money, no one will ever say that you're not necessarily in your prime. Women have a certain window. Like men look at women and think, OK, if she can't have kids, I don't know how is she in her prime. I do believe that men think when you get past the age of childbearing, you're no longer in your prime. I disagree with that when it comes to men with money, because you can have money and not take care of yourself in any other area no no no no no no you're physically not in shape if you're mentally not in shape let's open up the phone lines let's discuss what's the question i agree what's the question what do we want to ask people what do you what do you think about you know don lemon's comments yeah especially women 585-1051 let's discuss 800-585-1051 or they're ridiculous his comments are ridiculous.

That's why he apologized. It's ridiculous. Is the question, do you think women are past their prime? No. At a certain age? Yeah, that is the question. Okay. Do you believe what Don, do you agree with Don Whitman?

Do you agree with Don Whitman? Okay. 800-585-1051. And if you do, you're ridiculous. Sorry. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Let's talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our co-host, Carrie Champion, joining us right now.

You don't have to wear headphones, Carrie. Now, if you just joined us, we were talking about what Don Lemon said yesterday on CNN. This violent statement. He chose violence. He did. I mean, he didn't give a damn about any woman

when he made these comments. Let's hear it. Oh, talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think that, I think it's the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians or something

are not in their prime. Nikki Haley is in her prime. Sorry. When a woman is considered being a prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe 40s. What are you talking about? That's not according to me. Prime for what? It depends.

And it's just like prime. If you look it up, it'll say if you look, if you Google when is a woman in her prime, it'll say 20s, 30s and 40s. I don't necessarily know. I got it. And I agree with that so i think she has to be careful about saying that you know politicians aren't in their prime need to qualify are you talking about prime for like child recurring or are you talking about the facts

are google it so we're asking 800-585-1051 what are your thoughts let's start with the og carry champion what do you think you know what I think uh I think that was I think it was silly look I know Don and and and know him well enough to text and talk to him and oftentimes maybe not even often twice I've sent him a text and said why'd you say that what is wrong with you whatever he has said in the past I have said Don you can't say that he's like you know what my bad or I'm, or I didn't mean it. I think a lot of times when you're trying to be provocative, especially in our world, which has changed the game that we live in. It's all about going viral and making statements and being relevant. And you get caught up.

I don't necessarily think he was 100% trying to insult all of women, but he did. And it's not fair. It's not fair for us because we always are limited you guys get better as you get older and women are done at a certain age and i if men were honest i'd be like yeah that's too old for me like age appropriate men are rarely dating age appropriate if they're dating that's true rarely you know what i mean i'll take a spot on what you said i also think we live in these world of extremes where everybody is on the side, especially when it comes to politics.

So Don is a liberal. He's a Democrat. Nikki Haley is Republican conservative. So instead of like him looking at what she said, because what she said is, hey, I think anybody over the age of 75 should have to have a mental competency test to run for, you know, president or to be president of the United

States of America. And by the way, there's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with that. I agree with that. But he can't say that because he's so beholden to Democrats. He's so in love with the liberals. He's so in love with President Joe Biden. So he don't even want to seem

like he's on the side of Nikki Haley, which I think is extremely well. Well, I don't think he's so in love with... Perhaps he is, but I think he was just trying to make a point that what he said was what she said wasn't fair but she was absolutely within the realm of possibility like after 75 years old you must definitely to me that's ridiculous because a woman could never be president at 80 years old exactly they would never put an 80 year old woman in the white house and trump is over 75 too so her saying that wasn't just a shot at president

biden it was a shot at uh former president trump as well but he can't even have a real nuanced conversation about what she said because she's on the other side if a democrat would have said that he would have went up there and he wouldn't even have talked about you know carrie not being in her prime but not for nothing kiss my ass i'm in my prime but not for. I think you take it past politics. I think you should do it for your license. I think they do, though. Don't they? No.

I thought you had. You had. They don't. No. They don't. And it's interesting that you say this because my grandmother, I got mad at me because I told her she couldn't drive. This was years ago.

I was like, you can't drive anymore. You just don't have the same reflexes. You're not supposed to be driving. And they don't make them retake the test. No. And they should. Absolutely. Yes.

100%. So there is a past year prime let's go to the phone lines hello who's this hey what's up brother talk to us what was your thoughts on don lemon's statements i i don't agree with the way he said it but i do agree with him what do you mean i think i think well this is what i mean by that i think that when it comes to the state market value, older women don't hold as much dating market value. Not saying that they're not in their prime or they're not valuable as people.

But when it comes to the dating market, yeah, they don't hold as much date market value. I'm going to tell you something. When men make comments like that, they tell me they ain't got no eyes. Because, bro, if you look around right now, the OGs are killing these young girls. Every day, all day. I mean, killing.

I agree with you. Every day, all day. Run down the list. Angela Bassett, Nia Long, Jennifer Lopez, Patti LaBelle. Listen, I'm not saying that those are not beautiful women. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is they are still valuable. They are still beautiful women.

I'm saying when it comes to date market value most men are still going to prefer a younger woman and that's just that's just biological wiring that's how we are and that's true well i'll tell you one thing some of these men man like diddy did he need to be with a woman that can identify the signs of a stroke shut up hello who's this my name is aisha hey aisha come on and talk to us what do you think about don lemon's comments so I find it interesting that it seems that men are always expressing some sort of imaginary standard for women.

Like a blanket standard. You have to be this tall, you have to be this body type and it's like women aren't cars. Our value is not based on some made up metric. Women are people. And I find it interesting that the age range, women in our 40s, you know, I'm in my 30s. But the older you get, the higher your sex drive, the more financially stable you are, the more comfortable you are in your body.

And I feel like the more weight gain, hair loss, it's like. It's like, you're declining, sir, not me. Sir. Sir. That a man who likes men is commenting on anything about women. Whoa, whoa. Sir, you don't like us anyway. Whoa. But, Carrie, do you think there's something to that?

I think it is. And I think the men, the red pill men, the men who always got something to say about women, they don't like women for real. That's a whole nother topic. I'm with you on that. That alpha male, that alpha male, alpha male Twitter is ridiculous. Alpha male Twitter is a shame.

Look, I agree with her. Well, two things. One, Don does say things that are that are very traditionally not someone who is ever been with a woman or dating women in that way. I agree with that. Like, because I say, I because i'll say don that's not that's not normal we literally i remember we had this conversation me and my girlfriends were talking i agree with this caller she me my girlfriends were talking there is a metric for women like there's this imaginary metric you guys might you are more evolved you are the you're outside of the norm in the sense of how men feel about women but they do like oh i like her but she's to this or she's to that.

Like the littlest things. And we did get we get judged. And especially if you're a black woman, you get judged at such a different rate. And I and I think Don, listen, he tried to walk it back. What he was trying to do, I think more so is what you were saying. He was trying to agree with the Democrats, period. Not so much in the way that he hated Nikki Haley, but in the way that he was like, she doesn't know what she's saying. But it's hard for us. It's literally hard for us.

And I don't want to get into whether or not he's heterosexual or he's gay. And that matters. But he does sound like a man who hasn't been around a fine ass black woman. Like reality. You think sometimes gay men step out of their lane and forget you still are for sure so you can't comment on women for sure for sure all the time you shouldn't be saying like come on you can't say a woman's out of her prime and she had a point but i don't want to i don't want to hold down to that he just says things like that all the time but let's let's

take some more calls we do it when we come back 800-585-1051 we're talking about don lemon's comments have you heard him let's play a clip right fast. Oh, talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think that, I think it's the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians or something are not in their prime. Nikki Haley is in her prime. Sorry. When a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe 40s. What are you talking about?

That's not according to me. Prime for what? It depends. I mean, it's just like prime. If you look it up, it'll say, if you look, if you Google, when is a woman in her prime, it'll say 20s, 30s, and 40s. I don't necessarily know. Oh, I got it. I agree with that.

So I think she has to be careful about saying that politicians aren't in their prime. I think they need to qualify. Are you talking about prime for like child-rearing? Or are you talking about prime for being president? Don't shoot the message around just saying what the facts are. Google it. We'll take your calls when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. I know it now. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. Like who knows? You'll see what's next.

Call me. Send your opinion to The Breakfast Club top. Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our co-host Carrie Champion joining us.

And we're talking about these comments that Don Lemon said on CNN. Let's listen. Oh, talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think that, I think it's the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians or something are not in their prime. Nikki Haley is in her prime. Sorry. When a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe 40s that's not

according to me for what it depends and it's just like prime if you look it up it'll if you look if you google when is a woman in her prime it'll say 20s 30s and 40s i don't necessarily know i got it another thing i agree with that so i think she has to be careful about saying that, you know, politicians aren't in their prime. You need to qualify. Are you talking about prime for like child? Are you talking about the facts are Googling? So we're asking eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. What are your thoughts?

We have Noel on the line. Noel, good morning. Good morning. How are you feeling this morning? I'm feeling blessed. And then I'm a Trinidadian and a Trinidad carn morning? I'm feeling blessed. And then I'm a Trinidadian and it's Trinidad Carnival week. I'm feeling blessed. Hey.

So what did you think about Don Lemon's comments? I think that Don Lemon should not be speaking on women because he doesn't even like women. You have to really understand physically and mentally what a woman does before you can even talk about it. And, you know, like he's trying to get clout, but it's like, you don't even really like us. So why are you speaking to us? You don't even know what a woman is in her prime and what she can do in her prime. I'm in my prime any age that I am.

That's true. That's tough. More than the physical. But you know what? You don't really like women, so I need you to stop saying that because you don't even understand us, number one. And Don said that, you know,

that wasn't his personal take, but you shouldn't repeat understand us, number one. And Don said that, you know, that wasn't his personal take. But you shouldn't repeat a take that's not yours like it's yours. You can't make the statement and then say, but that's not my personal take. No, no, no, no. Don't work like that. Yeah, but that's why they call hearsay in court. You know what? You can't do hearsay in court.

They don't do that. So he needs to stop. And I'm like, I'm in the ATL. It's time to come find us. And there's a bunch of women in their prime that we could have a full circle with them and we could talk about women in their prime that's what you do you don't go around and talk about all that

shit willy nilly it's insipid okay thank you mama you know what I dare not men all believe this you know what I mean you guys are referring to whether or not she's referring to whether he's whether he likes women or not men believe this whether they like women or not not all men not all men not all men but i have been around heterosexual men who believe that after you hit a certain age you're

not in your prime and that and and literally steadfast about it and so i don't think it has anything to do with his sexuality yeah we can harp on that but he just is repeating it's a man thing it's a man thing it's toxic a man thing. It's toxic masculinity. It is the patriarchy. It's all the things in which we have been taught in this country. Don is repeating

subliminally whether he realizes it or not. That's what he's repeating. KB. Yo, what's going on? This is Kyle from Brooklyn. Good morning, everyone. Talk to us.

What's your thoughts, brother? Yeah. Yeah, I really don't agree with who grew up like that, though. Anyone from, you know, especially a certain type of culture. We grew up like that though anyone from you know especially a certain type of culture we grew up in fact that of women kind of expire certain things at a certain age or they're not married but kids at a certain age i don't i don't understand what a woman prime is i know a lot of women 20 30 40 50 they're Yeah, I mean, you know what else, man?

Primes are changing every day. Because there's certain people that's making you realize like, damn, you can keep going. Angela Bassett in her 60s, bro. And why are we associating prime with what you look like? Because do you see the physical connotation here? You guys keep saying she fine because she's 60.

She fine because she... We don't say that about a man. He fine for 60. He fine for 50 he's fine for 40 why are we associating what you look like as your prime you're right but doesn't mean i look like that too but i think because a lot of times your uh external is a reflection of your internal so if you've been doing what you're supposed to do as far as you know your physical fitness as far as your mental fitness your emotional fitness it will reflect on your outside. So I think that's the reason why. What's the moral of the story, guys?

What's the moral, Keri? The moral of the story is the prime for me could be anything. It could be all-encompassing, mental, physical, success. That's prime. People don't hit their prime. Men and women don't hit their prime until their 40s, maybe 50s, in terms of really getting to the place where you're having some financial success. Hardworking folks. I'm not talking about an entertainer or somebody who does something differently. You start to arrive

where you are in your prime when you're around your 40s. It's a different level of life that you experience. And I'm not just saying that just about physicality. I don't want to associate prime with that either. But like because I'm fine as hell. Talk that talk, Carrie. She's 63. Yeah. And I also want to say, too, this is why I hate cable news.

Because it's designed to where one side or the other can't even agree with each other. And you end up sounding stupid. Correct. Because you're going against people just because. All Don had to do was focus on what Nikki actually said. And it's that people over 75 need a mental competency test. Have that combo instead of talking about whether a woman is in their prime or not. All right.

Well, when we come back, we got some rumors on the way. We got to talk about Chloe Bailey. People are not loving her right now. We'll tell you why when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God.

charlamagne excuse me i'm talking i believe him i saw charlamagne at this event we did for iHeartRadio. He walks in a room with this long James Brown coat on with fur. That's a lock. Sounds like you. And it was houndstooth, more specifically. Houndstooth with fur. With fur around the neck. And then I go, hey, Charlamagne, how are you? He barely touches me.

He won't even look me in the eye. Like, I'm on tour. He's R. Kelly. First of all, you're 5'11". I'm 5'6". I can't look you in the eye. You can look me at my neck Kelly you're five eleven I'm five six okay well you can look at my neck you can at least look at my neck you know what I mean and you didn't even do that and you walk past me and I was like oh this is anxiety there's too many people in the room

correct which made him nervous and I was like I don't like it that is not true when you have anxiety you see somebody in the room that you know you go to that person because that person will bring you some comfort she's not even telling the truth right now. Y'all don't have no celebrity rumors y'all can be talking about? You want to let the young lady speak?

Y'all don't have no celebrity rumors y'all can be talking about? Let the young lady speak. Am I out of my prime? Is that why? I'm out of my prime. I can't talk now,

Charlamagne. I'm out of my prime. I can't talk right now. I'm just trying to figure out why he keeps saying young. Let the seasoned lady speak. Let the mature lady speak. Goodness gracious. let the mature ladies speak let the mature woman say something

listen here you're being mean and you are rude and I don't like it so then the other time we were in Ghana I spent a whole week in Ghana and he doesn't even speak to me

so this is my thing you know how he has bad things to say about you and he always says that you have bad reports i have bad reports charlotte may be on that famous ish all the time with me this nba veteran is not don't be mad because you need help getting to the basket 19 time all star take the take the ice off her knees Take the ice off my knees This 19 time Los Angeles Laker This 19 time all star is not telling the truth Stop calling me Kareem That's rude

Now we gotta talk about Charlamagne's Alleged cousin Chloe Bailey announced the second single Of her album It's called Pisces And the track is called How Does It Feel It features Chris Brown and people were upset about it.

Saying, how could she do a song with Chris Brown? Oh my goodness, this can't be right and people are upset that she's doing a song with Chris.

I don't see a problem with it. Do y'all? People pick and choose when they want to be mad at Chris Brown because folks were just riding for Chris Brown. I think,

who didn't want him to perform? The AMAs. Remember when the AMAs canceled his performance? Yep. Everybody was saying, why y' didn't want him to perform? The AMAs. Remember when the AMAs canceled his performance? Yep. Everybody was saying, why y'all keep doing this to Chris? You know, it's...

I thought that was more about him doing a tribute to Michael Jackson. And they didn't want to honor Michael Jackson because of the controversial. It wasn't so much about Chris Brown. So I... And people don't ride for Chris. He's even said it. He said American media doesn't have his back. That is that is facts.

He's a black man and they're going to continuously vilify him and demonize him for the rest of his life. But here's a snippet of the song. Classic sample. That's that Usher throwback. Usher. Yep. Throwback. Throwback.

Yep. Drop on a clues bomb for Usher. By the way, that's one of Usher's nuclear bombs that he would use in a versus. And that was an album cut. That was a secret, though. That was a secret nuclear bomb. Throwback featuring Jadakiss. That's a secret.her's nuclear bombs That he would use in a Versus And that was an album cut That was a secret though That was a secret nuclear bomb Throwback featuring Jadakiss Ain't no

That's a secret It's a secret It wasn't a single It wasn't no single Play with Usher if y'all want to Y'all keep talking about Usher in a Versus Y'all don't want a Usher smoke Does Usher need a Superbowl?

I would like to see Usher in a Superbowl Yes He needs a Superbowl right? It's fair It's only fair I keep saying Usher for Vegas next year A lot of people don't i think that makes sense i do too because of the residency in vegas you know i mean and a lot of

times we think vegas and we think residencies we definitely usher is the top person we think of right now right yeah absolutely only thing i the only thing and we've been talking about this is you know we went latino latino black black or did we say Canadian? We went Latino. Black. Black. Ultra black. With Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. Black. Black with Rihanna. So now you got another black? Or do they go and have to throw in a white?

It's up to Roc Nation. If it's up to Roc Nation, it's black all day. They might as well do black until the contract's up. At some point they're going to start reverse racing. But no, but they do sprinkle in white people we had not the last four years no it's like the national anthem they sprinkled in m&m yeah and the guy who sang uh baby face and star spangle banner star spangle banner chris

stapleton yeah but he down with jay that's his guy too remember they did the whole that album together the lincoln park album going by your philosophy, he's white. He's definitely white. It's going to be interesting. It's up to Roc Nation whether they want to go blacker or they want to throw a bone to the white people at this point. Well, lastly, Remy Martin, she talks with Jason Lee about, I don't know if you remember when Cardi was beefing with Nicki Minaj,

she changed her profile pic to Remy Ma, and Remy Ma talks about that a little bit. Cardi was here on the show and there was a question I forgot to ask her. Why she make you as her Twitter profile? Your face is still up there. Then I thought about why she did it. Because she was into it with an old girl,

and then you was into it with the other old girl, and it was just the most pettiest. Y'all are all just petty. I didn't even do nothing. I didn't even tell her. You caught her straight for no reason. You at home chilling with your kids. I didn't catch her straight I didn't even tell her You caught her straight for no reason Like you at home chilling with your kids I didn't catch her straight hold up be clear

I was like this I was at home like this Waiting With my notifications on It was a good picture It was a good picture I think that was from the It was like a Anniversary of the 4040 club When I had one out

Did she get donkey in the name, please, Deli? Absolutely. I have become Donkey of the Day.

It's the Breakfast Club, bitches. We're donkeys. Yes, Donkey of the Day for Friday, February 17th goes to Akash Majumdar. I think I pronounced his name right. Definitely didn't pronounce it right. I don't think I did. Did not. But he's 28 years old and hails from India.

Okay, now it's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday! You're not going to do it with me? Well, where are we going? I'm going to do it again and I want you to participate. Okay?

All right. It's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday! Okay? And listen, I'm not here to kink shame anyone. Okay. All right, It's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday! Okay? And listen, I'm not here to kink shame anyone. Okay. All right, I know folks have all types of fetishes and sexual attractions, but we have to be honest, people. We're putting too many things on the menu nowadays.

Oh, boy. All right, folks have way too many choices. All right, way too many options. And at some point, we have to get back to the basics. Salute to In-N-Out Burger. Kara, you from Los Angeles. You know In-N-Out Burger very well. I do. Okay, when I'm on the West Coast, I to In-N-Out Burger. Cara, you from Los Angeles. You know In-N-Out Burger very well. I do. Okay, when I'm on

the West Coast, I love In-N-Out Burger. I would not be eating it anymore because I have to get my cholesterol down. But the reason I'm saluting In-N-Out Burger is because they have the most basic menu on the planet. Double-double cheeseburger hamburger fries. Bong. That's it. Now, they got the not-so-secret menu, okay, but there's nothing really crazy

on there. Double meat, the 3x3, 4x4, if you really don't give a damn about clogging your arteries and just want to die but the not so secret menu is kind of like these new sexual fetishes people have like i grew up in the 1900s when the menu was basic when it came to sexual desires men like women women like men men like men women like men uh women like women okay now it's just a free-for-all nowadays okay and it's just like a devil damn royal rumble when it comes just a free-for-all nowadays okay and it's just like a devil damn royal rumble when it comes to rubbing who you want to rub the right way and this guy akash has added something new to the menu see akash is sexually attracted to what the american

government just shot out the sky no not the ufos the balloon yes akash is sexually attracted to balloons he is currently in a high-flying, committed relationship with a bunch of balloons. I'm not making any of this up. Go to the NY post. The NY post said he loves these balloons so much that he could burst. Okay, he is sexually attracted to inanimate objects. I'm not talking about blow-up dolls. I'm talking about plain old store-bought balloons that you can blow up with your mouth.

Okay? It's a term for that. I can't pronounce it. Let's hear it. There are some researchers and psychologists who believe this is maybe just a type of sexual preference. So when we think about heterosexuality, homosexuality, recently there are people who say they're asexual. So they really don't have any sexual preference towards a human being

that this could potentially be thought of as that. So them loving cuddling very different physical anatomy that's not part of the picture i think the only concern i do have is that some of these individuals do have less relationships overall that's what they just don't connect well with other human beings and that is a concern and that could be a problem. Yes. See, this man, Akash, says what started as a friendship is now inflated into something more. He says he likes the balloon's presence and warmth. And he shares intimate feelings with balloons and vice versa. Let me tell you something, man.

This is why humans don't deserve nice things. And by nice things, I mean women in the vaginas that come with them. Because we live in an era, arguably the easiest time to get some ass. whatever kind of ass you want whether it's man ass woman ass ass is easy to attain in 2023 but folks don't even want it because the menu is too broad okay forget the cheeseburger or the double double i would like a balloon all right akash you really need to see a therapist for your commitment issues okay because you are only with these balloons because you know the relationship won't last long balloons have a lifespan of between two and five days so you fall in love with these balloons you blow them up okay make them think they're the only

one then pop all right i don't respect people who play with folks hearts or even objects hearts all right you need to tell these balloons you're here for a good time not a long time because they aren't even here for a long time all right You are only telling these balloons you want to spend the rest of your life with them because, you know, their life will only last two to five days. OK, this man, Akash, said that the balloon should have the freedom. This is an exact quote. He said these balloons should have the freedom and the chance to see the world. And that is the reason why I walk with them everywhere. If you really want a balloon to have freedom and you really want a balloon to see the world, just let the balloon go. OK, that balloon will see more of the world from that view than you ever will. OK, Akash, you so full of it.

I know you be gassing these balloons up. All right. Saying things like love is like a balloon. Easy to blow up and fun to see grow, but hard to let go and watch fly away. You don't have to let them go because after two and five days, they shrivel up and deflate and get flaccid like a 60 plus year old artery clogged penis on their own okay we have to stop this because at some point akash is going to be outside the white house protesting because his next blessing is getting shot down by a half a million dollar missile if y'all don't want blm to turn the balloon lives matter this man has to be stopped now okay akash i'm not judging i'm just judging

please give akash majumar the biggest and you know what i would like what what i was gonna say i don't agree okay explain if he wants to you know rub up against the balloon as long as he owns that balloon and he wants to change the balloon every day sometimes helium sometimes yellow sometimes blue sometimes red sometimes black i'd rather he do it with a balloon than something else. Yeah, but don't gas the balloon up. Don't blow the balloon up and make the balloon think that the balloon is the only one when you know that balloon is only going to be

around for two to five days. Does the balloon have feelings? Have you ever spoke to a balloon? It sounds like a man out of his prime, correct? Am I wrong? Am I wrong in this case? It does sound like a man out of his prime you know what I'm saying

he's out of his prime I do want guys like Akash that have these fetishes towards objects fetish fetishes what did I say

fetishes these people that have these I do want a guy to have his feces these people these fetter lines towards objects

I want them to at least try some ass just try some ass any ass man ass woman ass. Just try it. I promise you. Maybe he did.

I don't believe that. And you swear. I don't believe that. Ass is so easy to get. Ass is so easy to get. If this man's hollering at balloons, ass is not easy for him to get. You might be right. I just want him to try it.

If you try it and you still want the balloons, that's on you. For sure. But just try it. Try it. Try some flesh. Try it. Do you know what and you still want the balloons, that's on you. For sure. But just try it. Try it. Try it. Try it. Do you know what this gentleman looks like? Yes.

I've seen pictures. Can we play a game? No, we will not play a game. Because if we play a game, I promise you, what Claudia said yesterday. Okay. All right. Enough said. All right.

What Claudia said yesterday, that we had to bleep. You don't want those problems. All right. Well, thank you for that dog in the dish, sir. Okay, touche. Touche. Touche. Something happened.

Touche. I missed it. I don't even want to quote Jay-Z girls and girls. No. All right. When we come back, Notori Norton will be joining us.

That's right. She's in a new flick called 88. Executive produced by me. That's out in theaters today. Congratulations. Thank you. And we're going to talk to her when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast theaters today. Congratulations. Thank you. And we're going to talk to him when we come back.

Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It actually worked really, really well. I was on set and I took a picture and sent it to my husband. I was like, he's like, where'd the baby go? I was like, we just, we hit it.

So it actually works. And I think, you know, it just depends on the character. I'm actually like auditioning for a character right now that is a pregnant woman. So I was like, oh, yes, I get to embrace my pregnancy. So it's nice. Now watching Rihanna perform, was that different for you knowing that she's pregnant? You're pregnant? I was like, oh, baby, we're going to have babies around the same time. But watching that Super Bowl performance, I felt like something was going on. I saw like a half a rub.

And then when she did the full rotation, we don't really do that full belly unless you're with child. So I was like, yes, I got it done very quickly. Knock it out. Get it done, girl. But I was really inspired, empowered because to be able to perform at that level and you know being pregnant is not easy I know but she looks beautiful she looks happy she looks settled she looks content not notorious here uh today for I mean a couple of reasons but a movie is out today yes it's called uh 88 It stars you and Brandon B. Dixon and Orlando Jones. What is that movie about?

Yes. And executive produced by you. That's right. Charlamagne Tha God in the building. Yes. 88. Okay. So let me tell you, this movie, which premiered at Tribeca Film Festival, I think is a dope

conspiracy, you know, political thriller that shows how super PACs and funds kind of are coming in in different ways that it might be illegal um and and used to promote a specific candidate and a lot of times when you look at like white supremacy versus you know certain groups you can't just assume just because the candidate is same complexion as you that they are absolutely for you and 88 explores some of those themes also like just the thrill of it and my character is you know the wife of brandon victor dixon and when he called me to do this movie i was like oh yes i'm in because the script is amazing you know it's directed by erin mose it's just a really good film and i think people will think when they leave 88 so

please go to the theaters support support your black movies now it actually is going to make you think about what's happening in our politics and pay attention don't just go oh yeah i'm voting for him because you know he looks like me or he's black or he's spanish and that's cool but we have to start paying attention to what they're really about and who's behind them follow the money right that's the hashtag for 88 follow the money so if you follow the money you'll see what's really going down i was going to ask uh were you into politics like that before this movie i went to school for political science at seton hall so i studied poli sci at seton hall university as a shout out i'm a jersey girl for all those who know east orange um so politics is something I teetered or thought about even like delving into when I

post 3LW I went to college and I was like I want to be a lawyer or I could you know really change policy so I thought about either entertainment law or litigate so after 3LW you went to school oh yeah yeah this was like post being kicked out of the group um uh my life changed that story oh it's fine people will never let it die it's not me people um but it's okay i survived amen and i'm cool with adrian now i'm so happy yeah she's she's doing great and i'm so happy that we we've reconnected but anyway um yeah so i went to seton hall after 30w study political science i thought about that and then kind of got pulled back into the industry via Broadway

and Hairspray on Broadway. But I've always had a passion for how, you know, policies and lawmakers because at the end of the day, if we don't get in

from the inside, we just can be standing on the outside complaining. That's right. But if you're not going to step in it, you can't really

change anything. And that's how I've always felt about politics. That's why I like 88 because it does show you how you can you know change things especially with these packs and everything oh yeah the super packs you can change a lot and you can figure out where like you said money is a huge influencer in how these elections go when you have it and when you don't now i was gonna ask you that you know because 88 does uncover a lot of conspiracy

so were you a person who believed in conspiracy theories clearly oh i'm a conspiracy theorist i was just on a show talking they they called it i said i got a lot of notorisms um people might be like oh that's ridiculous you know but sometimes what seems ridiculous be the thing that is really happening so open your eyes people what are your thoughts on the one balloon and the ufos the one balloon oh gosh well that i mean i think it's pretty apparent that there there was some you know spy activity happening and i think we had to shoot it out i feel like with china right it's like they're in denial i feel like if people get caught they should just say like caught me all right yep i was looking but i i'm just saying to the balloon that was basically right in front of us something something's going down aliens no um i'm not saying

i don't believe you believe in aliens i i believe i feel like these subjects always make y'all y'all are hilarious no because then people come like the headline will be notary not pregnant believes in aliens notary notary is pregnant with an alien. That would be the headline. Natori Nahn newly discovered how to birth an alien. I don't know. Look how much life it is on Earth. All the different life forms.

I mean, it's insane. Birds and things in the jungle and the woods and the water. Down to the tiniest little ant. Yeah, so why wouldn't the universes be that diverse? It has to be, because why would there be all these other planets? But that's a whole other topic. But yeah, I just think that the balloon was not alien related okay i think it was you know

spy or surveillance related what about the other three though the other three unidentified flying objects yeah now they haven't recovered no wreckage they say they probably won't recover the wreckage that might be aliens i'm trying to tell you you know the fact that they put out a statement saying it's not aliens oh did they yes the white house put out a statement saying it's not extraterrestrial so then now you really try to like steer us away from the truth that's funny i didn't know that all right we got more with notori norton when we come back her movie 88 comes out today charlamagne is ep on that movie that's right and if you in new york city man uh the village east by angelica theater 7 15 p.m tonight uh i bought out the whole theater there's rsvp to 88 screening rsvp at gmail.com

and first come first serve come check out 88 the movie tonight all right we got more when we come back it it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Leave me, don't let that kiss all about you Ain't it dark right now? Feeling lost but I like it Comfort in my sins and all about me All I got right now Feeling taste of resentment Sittin' over my skin, it's all about Dust stain on my shirt, new

Do my nerves, oh, I got curve Goin' back on my word, damn You**** on my nerves Oh, n****, I got caught up, going back on my word Damn, you so thirsty, still don't know my worth Still stressing perfection, let you all in my mental Got me looking too desperate, damn I'm waiting for a bright day, sunshine I found a way to f*** it up, still can't cry About the b**** that I can't change, just

My mind gotta get out of here Tough crowd, I hate it Can't stay Ain't it dark right now? Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy We are The Breakfast Club We're still kicking it with Notori Norton Her movie 88 is out today

Now question, have you totally given up music done with it not doing it no more no interest no love i never say giving up anything because i do a lot of films that incorporate music or singing i just did kirk franklin the night before christmas a holiday film where i was singing me and luke james it was great um i feel like music is in my soul and in my gut and my spirit i just think the music business you know has changed i used to think that music was the gateway or that's that's the that's the thing that's gonna i mean but i i lived it i was i had a whole girl group signed a record deal at 15 so for me it's like going back gotcha i've done like so you tied all the three of w talk and when

you hear old interviews and they're saying this and the group was that you just you're tired of it. I don't know if it's tired of it, but I don't get mad. I know that people genuinely connected to the era and genuinely loved 3LW. So I'm actually grateful to have been part of like kind of this section of history with girl groups and the boy groups. B2K. I mean, b2k was just my friends nothing happened there was no entanglement that we heard there was entanglement going on with three members child oh no that's what the young lady what's her name keely carly i can never pronounce it we can we can never get it yeah she said that she she had an entanglement with three

of the members god bless her w had an entanglement with oh no no no no no god bless her um yeah i haven't squashed and spoken no i don't talk to her at all but that's why i was saying like it's almost miraculous and amazing that but because i think adrian's heart and just the spirit and the growth when people grow and you grow up you start to be like oh okay so we actually have a lot more in common and we actually struggled in the same way we were children manipulated by adults so the truth is like what's the reason for hate at the end of the day i'm happy for her and she's happy for me y'all gonna have to do the 3lw doc and it's y'all it's your everybody's asking it's your fault and

adrian's fault yeah because y'all stars continue to grow right somebody just posted that i'm waiting for the 3lw uh documentary or behind and i'm like well what what what more i mean there's a lot to talk about i'm actually starting to write a book about all the you know i went through um but i don't really know like i mean i guess somebody will figure it out call me i'm down i i've said all my truth so i think at this point i'm excited to like grow and move forward building new friendships and healing some of that pain like the truth is that was a very hurtful time but in a way I look back and I like that was pretty cool I was 15 years old on tour with Destiny's Child and I lived a good good life you'd be open to sitting down with Keely and everybody don't have to have a whole conversation I mean to do a

documentary do we all have to be? They ain't got to be there together. I was like, they could just do confessionals or just put. But you say you want to heal. I'm healing. I've healed. I've healed. I don't need. You got to talk to somebody to heal. That one, I don't need to heal.

I'm good. It was that bad? No, the difference is when things are bad 20 years ago, but when people continuously say and do things. It's like you're trying to move on and then there's random videos or somebody's like charlamagne's to keep attacking like come on now i've moved on so i'm down for the the talking video in one separate box like confessional have me here and maybe me and adrian and whatever you know what i wanted to ask too like brandon v dixon you know he's starring in 88 too and he also played silver on power yeah y'all have a lot of chemistry on camera how did

how does your husband feel about that on-screen chemistry oh my gosh i feel like i've had on-screen chemistry with a lot of people uh omari hardwick obviously is ghost but brandon is so great i've known him since i was in hairairspray when he was in Color Purple. He's such a great actor and producer. And just like his whole vision is amazing. So I've always wanted to work with him. But when we did Power together, it was just like easy. You know, and I told Courtney, I was like, oh, me and Brandon are going to work well together because he's talented and he's a gentleman. You know, unfortunately, Terry Silver didn't make it.

Sorry about that. My husband. It's always my fault but then for 88 you know i'm actually pregnant in the film which is funny somebody can't you know they saw a clip and was like oh you was pregnant while you were shooting i was like that was two years ago i would have to be pregnant forever um but i play his wife the chemistry is organic my husband doesn't feel like weird about chemistry because I'm an actor and that's part of the job If I don't then I might not be getting the jobs. So I think he he's confident. So when I met to My TV husband Omar

He was like, oh this is gonna work cuz you know cuz a lot of people are intimidated, you know Cuz terse is so I'm you know Mari said that to him because he introduced us I can be a little aggressive or i've been told so some men be like scared or even people and i'm like why are you scared of me i'm not really about to hurt nobody um but i don't know what it is but he ain't scared of me and i like that power book two season three starts on march 17th yeah obviously on stars it's so good. I feel like every season, it gets better, and I was just telling Michael Rainey, you know, his growth and

all the characters, the young generation in the Power universe, they're holding it down. I'm really, really proud. It doesn't end. Power doesn't end. It just keeps going. It definitely keeps going. It does. It's like a universe that just gets bigger, right? What'd you say? Are you still in witness protection this season?

Well, you'll have to see. Where did I leave off? I was in witness protection. Tariq is looking for me. I don't know where I'm going to be when he finds me. So we'll see how that ends up. But I'll just say it's some interesting twists and turns. And you can never underestimate the power of Tasha. I'll just say that i feel like tasha getting a spinoff i don't i don't i don't know like tasha getting a spinoff what makes you say that only makes sense all the other main characters

pretty much had spinoffs i know but there's so much that's going on now that i don't i don't even know where where is she where would that be i don't i don't know and tasha's a queen pin in her own right she can be if she's but but i don't think she wants to be in the game anymore so i think her whole journey would be very different it'd be like a lifetime movie now it would it wouldn't be it wouldn't be the same i don't think i think she's really ready for the life that she couldn't have with ghost and so maybe it might be a little different. She's also a mama bear. She definitely is. If Tariq's still in the game, mama bear got to come help her cubs at some point. You are so good.

Come through, Charlamagne. I'm going to spin off coming. No, I'm just saying you are so good. But you need to pitch that. Pitch it to the producers and we'll see what happens. But hey, I live right here in New York City. So, you know, if something was to go down. It's easy to shoot.

You're here. Easy to make it happen. With all the blessings you have, everything professionally and personally, does it ever feel overwhelming? That's a great question. Yes, actually. In all honesty, it does feel overwhelming because sometimes you have this, maybe it's pressure to keep up or to stay on point or whatever it is that you're working on it feels like it's it feels like sometimes it's never enough i guess i get overwhelmed because i'm also like a perfectionist in real like life i don't like failure and i also

don't like mediocrity like that's part of my personality and i wish i could be like some people just like yeah you know, it is what it is. If it goes down, it goes. I'm not. I'm like, no, it must. And it will. And it must go well. And we must do well.

Like, I don't believe in doing anything not to the best of my ability. So it is a little overwhelming. That's a great question. And honestly, yes. All right.

Now, this last artist, I wanted to give it to an international artist. Her name is Tyla. She's like leading the sound of N-Piano pop. You know N-Piano's coming out of South Africa right now. N-Piano's from South Africa, right? But now they're doing like a pop version of it. And her song's called Thinking About You. And she's from South Africa?

She's from South Africa. And to me, she reminds me of Ariana Grande. But like South Africa. Okay, let's listen reminds me of Ariana Grande, but South African. Okay, let's listen. I like that. What do you call it? Impiano? Impiano.

Impiano. A South African Ariana Grande. Yeah. So, Elon Musk. What? She's not white, though, right? No, she's South African. She looks black.

Okay. She looks black. Okay. Because that sound you're talking about, because everybody always just labels all music from that region, from Africa, Afrobeats. I was going to say that. I was going to say that, yeah. Yeah.

Ampiano's new sound is almost 10 years old. I was asking her about it, actually. Like, so what is the difference? But hers is more mainstream sounding and less Afrobeats sounding. What did she say is the difference? Don't let me lie to you. I don't really remember. You are a listener. She wasn't listening.

Alright, fine. Check it out. Tyler, she's super dope. If people are into Afrobeat and they know who Rema is, there was rumor that she was dating Rema. Really? Rema's performing at NBA All-Star Weekend.

Yeah, they got pictures holding hands together. Oh. Okay. Well, how can people find you if they need to find you?

Miss Nyla Simone? Oh, make sure you guys follow me on the gram at Nyla Simone and in my LinkedIn bio, I have playlists. Tap in,

Up next is the People's Choice Mix. We throw it back on a Friday. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We have Carrie Champion, our co-host with us this morning. Yes, indeed. And it's Black History Month. What are we doing? Every day during Black History Month, you know, the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network.

We put out a podcast called I Didn't Know Maybe You Didn't Either, hosted by my guy B-Dot. And today B-Dot is going to tell you something you may not have known about black history. And he's going to talk to you about symbolism that matters. Now, of course, we know about Hitler killing six million Jews. But did you know about King Leopold II of Belgium who killed over 10 million Africans in the Congo. Because I didn't. All right, so dig it. In 1884 and 1885, there was this Berlin Conference.

A conference where the European nations all got together and decided how they were going to split up Africa. The disrespect. They pretty much said that all of Africa could be occupied by whoever could take it. Translation, if you can get the land, you can have the land. Man, them nations set out murdering Africans left and right, then taking their wealth and making Europe even more wealthy. Now, King Leopold II, oh, he set out for Congo. See, that was untapped terrain. Now, the Congo was rich in a lot of different minerals, all right? Ivory, rubber, and at that same time time guess what just happened to be being manufactured tires oh rubber was in high demand so king leopold he set up a real real tough system

if you didn't reach your regular rubber collection quota you were murdered or mutilated he cut off the hands of millions upon millions of africans, to this day, the Congo is still property of the Europeans. But what's even more disgusting is the chocolate hands of Belgium. See, in 1908, Belgium negotiated to buy the Congo from Leopold. Now, the most populous city in Belgium is Antwerp,

and there are shops in Antwerp where you can go and find chocolate hands on sale. Yes, little handy treats. Now, the mayor of Antwerp says you can go and find chocolate hands on sale. Yes, little handy treats. Now, the mayor of Antwerp says this has nothing to do with the Congo, these little brown chocolate hands. Oh, no. See, there's a local legend that a mythical giant once lived there near the river and he charged a toll to everybody who crossed the river. And if anybody objected, he cut off one of their hands and threw it in the river and some hero named bravo finally killed the giant and threw one of his hands into the river right i mean to be honest even if you do

want to talk about this fictitious character bravo who killed the mythical giant that lived near the river and was charging a toll to everybody and cutting off their hands it's a bit insensitive i mean symbolism matters it's like the confederate flag here in the united states you know you got some racist rednecks to say this isn't a defense of racism it represents regional pride well that region was real racist to black people so for you to continue to want to promote the regional pride means you want to continue to promote the racism severed hands they symbol they symbolize a chapter of Belgium's history. And in my opinion, making snacks in that shape

mocks the people that were murdered, tortured, raped, and mutilated. So don't tell me it's a coincidence. My therapist said there ain't no such thing as coincidences. Moral of the story, King Leopold II was heinous. And I wish I could take some of them little chocolatey-handed treats and slap the whole country of Belgium with them because I didn't know maybe you didn't either I didn't know that beat out is really digging you know and getting us some really some some gems that can educate us man and I got a

salute be that because I didn't know maybe you didn't either has been implemented in 15 different classrooms throughout North Carolina so schools in North Carolina are adding it to their curriculum it's in 15 different uh classrooms throughout north carolina so uh schools in north carolina are adding it to their curriculum it's like 15 different schools i believe that have added uh i didn't know maybe you didn't either to their black history month curriculum so salute to my guy b dot and make sure you subscribe to the i didn't know maybe you didn't need the podcast on the black effect i heart radio podcast network all right when we come back we got the positive notice the breakfast club good morning good morning everybody It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne the God. We got our co-host,

Miss Carrie Champion, joining us today. Big Carrie Champion. And thank you for hanging with us. Are you trying to say I'm fat? I'm trying to say you're tall. Thank you. Don't be jealous. Yo, your hair doing that thing again. Stop it. No, no, no. You notice how he always talks about my hair because he says that it's...

Wait, I literally take my headphones off. You know what it is? Because you're so tall, so these balloons are flying in the sky. Your hair's getting close to them, so it's causing the static to raise up. What I learned about Charlamagne is he has a problem with tall women.

No, I don't. You do have a problem. You are a liar. You hate that I tower over you and look at your tiny head. That is not true. I look down on your bald spot. He does hate it.

He talks about... Anybody that's taller than me talks about you. He. He talks about, anybody that's taller than him, he talks about you, he talks about Claudia Jordan, he talks about my assistant Mercedes. I dunk on all of them. I'll post all of them up and dunk on every single one of them.

You mad at the wrong person. We sorry you got the wrong jeans. I'll post up on all of them. You can't even test the net. Back them all down. You can't test the net. All right? You can't test the net, bro.

5'5". Morris Chestnut, 5'5". 5'4". At least you acknowledge the Morris Chestnut of it all. At least you acknowledge the Morris Chestnut of it all. DJ, Envy, he will send me a message every time somebody says he looks like Morris Chestnut. He is so enthralled with it. He's obsessed with Morris Chestnut.

I'm just letting you know what the street's saying. I'm letting you know what the curb's saying. The curb's not saying anything. The curb's the curbs. We got a clip? Play the clip. Very recently, for the first couple of times, they thought I was Charlamagne. Charlamagne.

Charlamagne? Yeah, yeah. Oh, God. Let me look from this way. Anybody see that one? Okay. I don't see that at all. Nope.

No. Y'all not going to break my soul. No. Nobody's trying to break your soul, Beyonce. Y'all not going to break my soul. No, nobody's going to break my soul, Beyonce. Y'all can't not break my soul. Look, little man, nobody cares what you think, but you do not look like Morris Chestnut. So you need to stop telling people that, and you need to stop sending me those messages. Your hair look like Ricky.

If Ricky had hair and he was running from them people, when he was about to get shot, that's how your hair look like. Ricky, see my hair? Guess what, little man? You look like a poop. Don't be mad at me. You mad because you look like a tiny little poop. Tiny little poop.

Don't be mad at me, little man. Can we close out on some positivity? Okay, you're right. I want to tell everybody the movie 88 is in theaters today. Congratulations. Thank you.
