Oh, man, this family right here.
Miss Ebony K. Williams is joining us this morning.
Hey, what's up, y'all?
Hey, drop on the clues box, Ebony K. Williams.
So good to be with y'all.
Oh, man, good to see you.
I just finished your book
like two days ago.
Black on Black.
I can't wait to get into it.
I know you got thoughts.
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Oh, I know that.
Yeah.
I know that part.
There's some conversations
we need to have.
Correct.
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you, Charlamagne.
To me, it was just
a reinforcement of, you know,
how I feel about myself
and my blackness
and how we need to show up
in all spaces.
Mr. Black Effect himself.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
Can we play our theme music
for this morning?
Oh, yeah.
Because things are shaping up
in this studio, okay?
Now, I walked in this morning.
There was these two huge thrones.
Makes me feel like I'm the king of Zamunda right now.
Turn up a little bit more.
I'm Wakanda.
Me Wakanda, I'm Zamunda.
Two huge thrones made out of gold.
Real gold plated.
I said plated.
I did say plated.
I said plated.
I said plated.
I said real gold plated. I said plated. I did say plated. I said plated. I said plated. I said real gold plated.
Not real gold.
All right.
Now it has leather, too.
Look, made of snake skin.
Well, not real snake skin.
Yeah, vegan skin.
But it's a nice, beautiful throne.
Lion heads.
Don't forget the lion heads on the front.
Lion heads.
Not real lion heads, Peter.
No, no.
Not real lion heads.
Not real lion heads.
But yeah, we're sitting in thrones this morning.
Now, Solomon, you only got two thrones.
I know.
I got to order another one.
Now, this is what happens.
Yeah, I feel like Vero Peasant over here.
You are far from a peasant.
He's giving peasant.
Ebony K. Williams could never be a peasant.
But over the holidays, I ordered these two thrones.
What gave you this idea?
You called me one day.
I was like, I ordered thrones.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
I just thought they would look good in the room.
Like, look at the new space.
Look at the new studio.
You know what I mean?
And we got some things that, you know.
That's happening.
That's happening.
That I think that they would fit very well.
You know, if this was a set, so to speak.
Doesn't it feel right?
It isn't a set of sorts.
Yes, it is a set.
Doesn't it feel right?
Yeah, I feel like I'd be like, good morning, my neighbor.
Good morning, my neighbor.
The Thrones were supposed to be here when we got back from holiday break,
but the problem was I had them in the queue because I thought I ordered them.
So you didn't pay for them.
So when I was looking, I was like, why they ain't get here yet?
So when I went to look, they were like, your order is waiting on you.
Oh, they were still in them. Exactly.
I'm going to order another one today, though.
I think you need a booster chair for yours. You need to go up like
two inches. Pause. I feel that way,
but I feel good. I like this
angle. You like this angle? I feel like I'm right where I'm
supposed to be. I feel like God has me seeing
everything from the perspective I'm supposed to see.
I like it. Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Front page news.
We got a lot to talk about.
There's a winter storm going on, and we'll discuss that a little bit.
It was kind of nasty getting into work this morning.
We'll get into it when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's D-E-J-N-V, Charlemagne the God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We got our guest host, Ebony K. Williams, joining us this morning.
What's up, fam?
And let's get in some front page news.
Now, an ice storm is hitting the southern U.S., causing a lot of problems from Texas to Tennessee.
I was actually supposed to be in Texas this Friday, Dallas, but they got, I think, four inches of snow.
Really?
And because of that, there's no plows, there's no salting things, so they canceled most of the flights going down there.
So I think I'm going to be canceled going to Dallas this Friday.
By the way, for instance, the snow in the south shuts everything down.
I was going to say, yeah, you know we don't even know how to act when it rains.
Exactly.
Everything shut down.
Even coming to work today, there was a lot of accidents on the road.
You didn't see none of that?
Nah.
I woke up this morning.
I didn't even realize it snowed.
Yeah, you didn't even see the snow.
Nah.
I didn't.
There's snow on cars.
I thought that was from another day. I didn't even pay no attention. This guy is crazy. Oh, my God. I didn't even see the snow. Nah. I didn't. It's snow on cars. I thought that was from another day.
I didn't even pay no attention.
This guy is crazy.
Oh, my God.
I didn't pay no attention.
All right.
Now, your president, Joe Biden, says COVID is over.
Is the pandemic over?
The pandemic is over.
We still have a problem with COVID.
We're still doing a lot of work on it.
But the pandemic is over.
Well, the pandemic is over is what he's saying.
And he's going to end the COVID-19 National
and Public Health Emergency on May 11th.
What does that mean? That means
you're not going to get any of those free
COVID-19 tests anymore in the mail.
Treatments and vaccines are going to
be a charge now. There were no charge at one
time. And if you
have to deal with a lot of the things, now you have to deal
with it on your own. It seems like they're going to be pulling
back from a lot of the things that they were paying
for originally. Thoughts?
I'm just really sad when these student loan
bills come back due.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's about to come back
up too. Damn it, Joe.
I feel like, you know, he's like
a year late on this. I feel like we've been said
the pandemic was over. In New York. I feel like that's a New York thing, Char on this I feel like we've been said the pandemic was over in New York
I feel like that's
a New York thing Char
oh Florida two years
Georgia two years
Texas two years
Florida never had a pandemic
what are you talking about
and they telling us
the pandemic is over
but something else is out here
I don't know if it's
the common cold
the flu
RSV virus
but there is something else
out here
because folks is sick right now
folks still get COVID
to be honest
folks got variations
but a lot of those tests, though, a lot
of the tests and the treatment and the vaccines that they were doing
for no charge is really going to affect people because
I mean, I know a lot of people were getting
tests and that's the way they were paying for them because them tests are
expensive. Very much so. Yeah, but did we even
care about tests after a while?
Yes. Because I got swabbed today.
You better believe it. They swabbed you? Absolutely.
That's wrong, Ebony.
They shouldn't swab you.
I'm going to shut up. Let me You better believe it. They swabbed you? Absolutely. That's wrong, Ebony. They shouldn't swab you. What do you mean?
I'm going to shut up.
Let me hug before I get somebody in trouble.
All I'm going to say is, I've seen some tests happen, and the test came back positive.
And folks like, hey, man, we got an interview.
Yeah, going to work.
Bring them in.
You know?
Yeah, let's not say that.
Allegedly.
I'm just saying.
Allegedly?
I'm just saying.
That didn't happen here.
You're going to get somebody in trouble. No, not here. Terms and conditions. Charlemagne, terms and conditions. No, not here. Oh, that. Allegedly. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. That didn't happen here. You're going to get some money in trouble.
No, not here.
Okay, good. Terms and conditions, Charlemagne.
Terms and conditions.
No, not here.
Oh, yeah.
All right.
Lastly, on a serious note, today is Tyree Nichols' funeral.
Of course, it'll be held in Memphis.
Vice President Kamala Harris will be there.
Reverend Al Sharpton will deliver the eulogy.
Attorney Benjamin Crump will deliver the call for justice.
That will happen, and it will be broadcasted on CBS News today,
this afternoon at 11 a.m.
Sounds like a great day to go ahead and pass the George Floyd Justice and Policing Act.
Absolutely.
And you know, I was going to say, it's great when, like, you know,
the vice presidents and the presidents show up to those kind of events.
It's a good gesture, but it can also be such a real distraction
because that's the first thing I would be saying if i was there when y'all gonna do something
about this that's the only thing i want to talk about if i'm the nichols family that's right that's
it and george floyd's uh family will be in attendance as well to show support well even
more even a better day to pass the george floyd justice and policing act the vp about to get an
earful today then i hope she prepared to have those conversations in that moment. I am sure
that they're going to keep people away from her.
She's going to speak to the family and I'm sure there's going to be secret
service agents all around. They're going to get her in and get her
right out. Which feels like virtue signaling
to be candid. That's what I'm saying.
But the only reason
it isn't election year next year. They're always campaigning,
right? Yes. Always. They're always in campaign
mode. Yes. Alright. Well, that is
front page news get it
off your chest 800-585-1051 if you need to vent hit us up right now and our special guest host
emily k williams is here it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club
this is your time to get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
My name's Anthony.
Anthony, what's up? Get it off your chest.
Nah, infinite, infinite.
Oh, infinite. Not my bag. Get it off your chest, bro.
Yeah, I was talking about the situation with the school and the little girl.
Yes, sir.
I just feel like, you know, parents today, with the economy being the way girl. Yes, sir. I just feel like, you know,
parents today,
with the economy being the way that it is,
parents working so hard,
kids is raising themselves, and then there's just no respect out there, period.
So I feel like they need to implement
and put people in position in the schools,
like Chalamet was saying,
like you were saying,
that's equipped to handle
Karma, you know things they go into at home. They see in the streets and you need to like there's a group called
You said you said to get the brothers from Detroit
Yeah, new era Detroit. Yeah, I know about them.
Yeah, they need to put them brothers
and more brothers like that in school.
We need to have conversations
where you, you know,
you lend out an olive branch
and start getting over your emotions
and putting FOIs in there.
Brothers, that's a flip.
We're handling our people.
We've been dealing with our people for over 70, 80 years.
Yeah.
Now, if you don't know what he's talking about, yesterday we had a discussion about this young
student who got into a fight with her teacher and actually broke the teacher's leg.
The teacher's leg was broken because of the incident.
So we were talking about that yesterday on the radio.
So I guess he wanted to.
I'm not going to lie. I was thinking about that teacher yesterday, the incident. So we were talking about that yesterday on the radio. So I guess he wanted to. I'm not gonna lie.
I was thinking about that teacher yesterday too, man.
Because another thing about that teacher,
that's why when you a certain age,
you better stop acting like you still can fight.
You know what I'm saying?
Because you jump out there and something break.
And you was like, damn, you think you still got it.
And you don't.
Exactly.
Hello, who's this?
Hey guys, it's Sandra the Haste therapist.
Sac passe.
And see, I have a little beef with you
Oh boy, why you have a little beef with me?
I'm a therapist and I got plastic surgery
Like Envy, Envy got a nose job
I do not get plastic surgery
I do not have a nose job, but go ahead
And I think there's a difference between having an insecurity and being insecure
Oh, you missed that conversation.
I heard it by the way.
So you take the position, Envy,
that if you have plastic surgery,
you must be insecure.
You have a little bit of insecurities in you
if you're getting plastic surgery.
If you want to enhance or change something on your body,
I think you do.
Absolutely not.
I think you do.
Do I look different from the last time you saw me?
I'm going to test your theory.
Do you look different?
Yes.
Yes.
Okay, what did I get? You, like, how did it end?
It looked like your cheeks are a little bigger.
He's making that f***ing
acting, Evie. He's making that f***ing.
I think your cheeks are a little f***ing projected
because I always say you got cheek fillers, which you did, by the way.
I did not get cheek fillers. Which is fine.
I did not get cheek fillers. I need a little sun on the eyes right now.
I did not get cheek fillers, nor did I get
a nose job. It's okay if youers. I need a little sun around the eyes right now. I did not get cheek fillers, nor did I get a nose job.
It's okay if you did.
I don't think that you're an insecure person for doing that.
I didn't know, but that's okay.
I mean, being insecure is not a problem.
I talk about my insecurities in certain things.
That's not a bad thing.
Right.
It's not.
But I just feel like people who get plastic surgery have a little insecurity.
That's all.
I disagree.
Totally disagree.
Yes, because being
an insecure person is different than having
an insecurity. I don't even think
you have to have an insecure person.
I don't even think you have to have
an insecurity, dear. I think that
you can just want to improve upon greatness.
That's very true.
I mean, it's hard. Was that too much?
No, I mean, that's how you feel. But I feel like if you want to change any part of your body or something that's bothering you that you want to change, it's hard was that was that too much no i mean that's how you feel but
i feel like if you want to change any part of your body or something that's bothering you that you
want to change there's a little insecurity that's my point i don't agree with that well you have to
agree no that's how i feel some people just want to enhance what they already got then that's a
little insecurity to me no no you got you got cars you do things to your cars not because you don't
like your cars it's because you want to enhance it a little bit. My cars don't have feelings.
They don't have insecurities.
Shut up, man.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.

Happy birthday.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Andre.
How's it going?
Andre, what's up?
Get it off your chest, brother.
Hey, man, love your show first.
Hey, I had a question.
Can we start taking
the government assistance
from these people
that's not raising their kids?
Ooh, that's a good question. already paid we already paid for them to that the health care
and all the rest of this and if you're not taking your kids to the doctor you got mental
problems they need to go to a doctor i don't understand it that's a good question i never i
never thought about that i don't know can you i think it's hard to evaluate who how you're raising your kids like
what's what's that survey look like yeah you know i don't know but i don't know i know you have to
take your kids to the hospital to a certain age because they have to go to school and you need
certain immunizations immunization shots and forms to get to cool even even to play sports man i think
what you're saying like when you see these kids with these behavioral problems like you feel like
they should parents should have this yeah itoday? Yeah. I disagree with that.
If your kid is
constantly having,
if your kid is
constantly having
behavioral problems,
then it's obvious
they need psychological
help.
The government
already pays,
if you don't have,
every child going
to school have
insurance.
If the government
paying for it,
or you paying for
it through your job,
but every child
have to have
insurance to go
to school.
You're abusing those kids
if they're not getting the psychological help that they need.
Well, you know, I'm a big proponent of mental and emotional health,
so I'm all for that.
But, you know, sometimes, man,
these kids just need more than psychological assistance.
Sometimes these kids just need attention and love.
A lot of times.
The reason that we give government assistance
is to help you raise your kids so that you have so that mothers or fathers or whoever it is they
have time to raise their children that's what that's what the money is for and if you're not
doing your job raising your children what do we give you that money for i think i think i think
i take issue they can lose their sisters, they'd be living more
intensified to be in their children's
life. I think I take issue with
assuming that a parent's not doing their
job simply because a kid has
behavioral issues. That's true. Because it's
nature and nurture. I mean, y'all are
parents. There's only so much y'all
can do. That's right. A mother
or father is responsible for both of
those. To a certain extent.
I mean, because you can do the best you can at home, right?
But then once a kid gets out in the world, he's influenced by, he or she is influenced by things that happen in the world.
Influenced by social media, influenced by friends, influenced by the environment.
All of those things, all of those things that you're saying are things that the parent could control.
No, they can't control.
They definitely can't control it. They definitely can't control it.
Because I even remember as a teenager,
like I tell everybody this story all the
time, Clue influenced me
and Clue influenced me because he
was a DJ. But if he wasn't a DJ and
he was a drug dealer, he was doing something negative.
He's somebody I looked up to and
I probably would have been influenced by him.
And you thought he was cute. Shut up.
Why you always got to go there, man?
Why you always got to go there, man? Why you always got to go there, man?
Why you always got to go there?
Get it off your chest.

Yo, whose salad do I have to toss to get some tickets to the Super Bowl?
Anolingus.
Yes.
That's what we call that.
Anolingus.
Anolingus.
That's the technical term for it.
We made that up.
She said, bitch, I'll have a bussy eating contest for them tickets.
Hashtag fly eagles fly.
Bussy eating contest.
Amber Rose got money though, right?
She can buy some tickets.
Amber Rose is looking for relevancy.
Oh, God damn.
Fire.
Damn.
Well, Diplo raised his hand.
For what though?
That's a two-part question, right?
Because she asked two questions.
Who got Super Bowl tickets?
Right.
That's the first question. Well, she said, whose ass questions. Who got Super Bowl tickets? That's the first question.
Well, she said, whose ass I got for Super Bowl tickets.
Oh, you're right.
But I guess the presumption is a quid pro quo.
Yeah.
I'll do the analingus for the tickets.
Yeah.
Well, Russell Simmons, Uncle Russ said I got tickets.
Oh, Lord.
That's y'all's friend.
You got to sit this one out.
Sit this one out sit this one out right

alright
did she get the tickets though
I don't know if she got the tickets
I don't know
and by the way
do you want to be the person
that gave her the tickets
and if you did give her
the tickets
do you admit
hey I gave Amber Rose
the tickets
cause everybody's gonna assume
yeah you
got your salad sauce
oh absolutely
you know what that's like
remember back in the day
when Lil Wayne say
um
truck fit for some truck fit that's exactly what that's like? Remember back in the day when Lil Wayne said, Lil Wayne said, suck it for some truck fit?
That's exactly what that is.
Whenever you saw people with truck fit on,

Jesus.
You know what I'm saying?
All right.

Bad Boys for Life
Baby
For Life
Well congratulations to them
You know when it
The Bad Boys for Life
Came out in 2020
It brought in 59 million dollars
In it's opening weekend
At the box office
So I'm sure it made
Well over 100
200 million dollars
So you know they're
Going to do it again
So that's Bad Boy 4 And I love the bad boys franchise i love the bad boys franchise too
but i don't like how they announced that you know what i mean because i feel like you know uh a
franchise that historic should have had like a trailer or something like i'm not mad at the you
know the grassroots instagram post but i just feel like it needed a bigger announcement
yeah well they're in pre-production now.
Which was stalled.
Which we know was stalled because of the slap.
Well, they said there was
several delays in the past three years, though the infamous
Oscar moment wasn't one of them.
That's one thing they did say.
Go ahead.
Now, something that's not front page news,
not a rumor report, but I just found this story funny.
There was a 22-year-old junior varsity assistant girls basketball coach in Portsmouth, Virginia.
She was fired this week after she impersonated a 13-year-old player and started playing in a game.
She was 22 years old and wanted to play on the JV game.
So she was blocking the girls.
She was doing all that.
I don't know why she did it or
what made her want to as a grown-ass woman to play with some 13 year olds but that's what she did
ain't that wild yeah i don't know who to blame in situations like that the adults who impersonate
kids or the adults who can't tell that's an adult impersonating kids some of these some of these
kids look old now bro that's what i'm saying does she look young do the kids look old i don't know
and why i i don't know and why
i i don't know like what do you get out of that like you just need one last thrill like flex you
want to live out your old high school days like what is it and this is like the third case in the
last couple of months where you know people old grown-ass men grown-ass women have went back to
high school played basketball went to classes like it's the weirdest thing ever well you know
some people peak in high school that is a thing oh that's. It's the weirdest thing ever. Some people peak in high school.
That is a thing. No, that's true. That's the Al Bundy syndrome.
Literally.
That's the Al Bundy syndrome.
When 50 said, damn, homie,
in high school, he was a man, homie.
So you want to go back? I guess.
That was the best time of the year. That's the heyday.
It's peak. That's sad, man.
Peak season. Don't they call that something like suspended something?
Well, it's peter
pan syndrome okay for one thing but yeah good thing we haven't peaked anyway all right well
that is your rumor report now when we come back we got front page news we do what are we talking
about just give us a little tease oh we're talking about uh florida's governor desantis uh and how i
don't give a damn what he's doing down there in florida because my new book bet on black the good
news in america today available wherever you get your books already has a solution to every problem and how I don't give a damn what he's doing down there in Florida because my new book, Bet on Black, The Good News in America Today,
available wherever you get your books,
already has a solution to every problem that Ron is talking about.
All right, we'll get to that next.

Morning, everybody.
It's C-E-J-N-V.
Charlemagne the guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to some front page news with our guest host, Miss Ebony K. Williams.
What's up, fellas?
Front page news. Ron DeSantis, Florida host, Ms. Ebony K. Williams. What's up, fellas? Front page news.
Ron DeSantis,
Florida governor,
with some more ridiculousness.
DeSantis now proposing
a ban on all diversity
and inclusion initiatives
in Florida universities.
We know he's really been
on erasing blackness
for a while now.
Florida governor,
Ron DeSantis,
says he intends to ban
state universities
from spending money
holding the bag hostage
on diversity equity
and inclusion in hopes that they will wither on the vine without funding so he is literally
starving draining the resources from black education um personally i am not at all bothered
by this particular front page news charlamagne and i were texting about it over the weekend i
drew i first of all i saw this coming right it's never a surprise when it's an attack on blackness not even on the first day of
black history month uh i wrote this book bet on black the good news about being black in america
and i open it y'all with a chapter called accuracy we can't as a people know who we are without
knowing from which we derive an accurate understanding of it so because malcolm already
told us y'all only a fool would let his oppressor
teach his children that's right okay we as black folk cannot afford to let government institutions
including florida or other states hold hostage our knowledge so i think all black parents all
black folks should have libraries in their own home with all of the essential black reading
material so our kids do not have to be at the helm
at the request
of a Ron DeSantis. And that's what you did
in your book so well. I mean, not only do you
address that in the first chapter, at
the end of your book, you have
a whole list of books that people
should read. And you know, even
what she said about Malcolm X is very true.
It's like Malcolm X educated himself, so that's what
I always have done. I didn't go to college, you know what I mean?
I like to read books, which Ebony
shames people for not doing in her book,
which is good. You should shame people
for not reading.
Especially in a culture where you've got
dum-dums like Kanye and the likes
saying how much they...
Enjoy not reading. Yeah, I love
not reading. You are an ignorant
fool, and I mean that in the purest sense of the term.
And then you open a school.
You can't open no goddamn school if you're bragging about not reading.
A mess.
Why would you send your kid to a school where the founder openly bragged about not reading?
Dr. Donda has to be rolling in her grave.
But no, the resources in the back of the book are important.
Something that she said.
Oh, speaking of self-taught, Frederick Douglass.
Remember when I pulled up at Breakfast Club maybe four or five years ago now and i lent you uh the
narratives of frederick douglas frederick douglas was born a slave in this country and taught himself
how to read by playing a game with the white owner's child and like basically tricking the
white boy to teaching him the alphabet and that's how he learned to read and became one of the
greatest patriots and orators and writers of american time so so first of all
i didn't know you lent me that book i still have it i thought yeah i mean i don't know if it's a
lend anymore charlemagne i think it's a gift i think you stole it yeah so we shouldn't care about
the i don't want to we shouldn't care about the legislation two things can be true okay i think
and i talked about this on my show the griot you can catch that uh every night at 6 p.m on the griot
we should not care in the sense that it's not gonna stop it we're gonna continue to learn
educate and absorb and celebrate our blackness and we should also use resources i believe attorney
ben crump and some other legal giants are suing the state of florida and ronda santos to make them
fund black black programming
and black curriculum so we should do both all right it's an it's an it's a both it's a this
and situation sue and read all right what else we got oh what else we got yeah let's go to um
george washington university this is interesting can't wait to see what you guys think about this
one as fathers of children that include daughters george washington
university installs emergency contraception vending machines for students this is now going to be a
vending machine that will disperse emergency contraception pills basically plan b uh morning
after pills in washington dc campus universities uh this was a student-led effort which they were
successful um for me you know as a woman who believes that it's my body, it's my choice.
We see the attack on women's reproductive rights and abortion in this country.
Conservative Supreme Court is stripping us every day of our rights.
I think this is fundamental.
This is fundamental.
If you don't want to make safe legal abortions a thing in this country anymore, if that's no longer the law of the land, we got to go this route.
But what do y'all think?
I ain't thinking about it.
No.
Because it makes you cringe as a dad
to think about your children,
your daughters having sex.
Grow up, Charlamagne.
Grow up.
But I agree.
It doesn't have to just be your daughters.
It could be your sons.
Whoever has to get it in.
But a lot of times,
people don't want to go to CVS
or Walgreens or these pharmacies
because they feel embarrassed.
Now you can go to a vending machine
at four in the morning
when nobody's there
if that happens. So I don't have a problem with it. Not at all. Yeah, I mean, you can go to a vending machine at four in the morning when nobody's there if that happens.
So I don't have a problem with it.
Not at all.
Yeah, I mean, you know,
in a perfect world,
I hope she don't need it
because she's not having sex, right?
And I hope she don't need it
when she gets older
because she's using protection.
Correct.
You know what I mean?
I hope it doesn't get to that.
But if she uses protection
and there's a problem,
if a condom breaks
and something happens.
Chalamet, are you for real?
Yes, I am.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, I actually think that's a great idea. I think it's phenomenal. I think that's a great idea i think that's a great idea you gotta hold it up my oldest is only 14 your oldest oh okay 21
21 yeah what can i now i'm being nosy but i'm curious when is the age as fathers is it like
not oh my god i'm horrified my daughter's having sex we are human beings right so what probably i don't know 30 40 oh my
god when i'm older you know she married i'm with charlotte i don't want to think about it like
it's not one of the things that i'm just one of the things that conversations that i want to have
you had the conversation with your older daughters no my wife your wife does absolutely and envy's in
a weird place because you know his oldest his oldest daughter's boyfriend hitting on him.
You know what I mean?
Stop!
I'm serious.
No, he's not hitting on you.
He took you to ask you on a date.
But no, she does have a boyfriend.
It's a serious boyfriend.
They've been together, I guess, about six, seven months now.
They go to NYU.
And he comes to the family functions.
He took me to the game.
I like him.
He's a cool brother.
He's trying to get your buy-in.
That's what that was.
Yeah, he is.
I think that's great.
But he got it.
I like him. I mean, he's a great kid.. That's what that was. Yeah, he is. I think that's great. But he got it. I like him.
I mean, he's a great kid, smart kid, very smart individual.
You know, I like what he stands for.
He's a good kid.
Do you see yourself in him?
And what I mean by that is...
What?
No, listen.
What?
Because we both have been with our wives for a long time.
Correct.
I mean, it'd be 25 years me and my wife been together this year, right?
How long are you in...
28 years.
Exactly.
So when you see him, do you see like, oh, I see that spark that we had when we was young.
I can see them being together for a long time.
Absolutely.
Okay.
I see the conversations that, you know, the babe and the holding hands and I see all that.
That's important.
I see all that.
But I like it because I like who he is as a person.
He's, you know, at his age, I wasn't that guy.
I wasn't that nice.
I wasn't that. I was an idiot. I was an ass. But, you know, he's a way better individual his age i wasn't that guy i wasn't that nice i wasn't that i was an idiot i
was an ass but you know he's a way better individual as i was a kid you know so i you
know i respect it i respect it okay i'm into it but to ask that question i'd rather that that
that vending machine there yeah i think they should be everywhere absolutely i'm not mad at
the vending machines i'm just sitting here thinking like you know i hope it don't get
to plan b meaning that you know i hope she oh we can do this because i not mad at the vending machines. I'm just sitting here thinking, like, you know, I hope it don't get to plan B. Meaning that, you know, I hope she...
Oh, we can do this because I hope it's a vending machine.
You hope it's a vending machine before that.
Correct.
You hope abstinence or, you know, condoms, essentially.
Exactly.
Exactly.
All right.
Well, that is your front page news.
Now, where you want to go next?
I really like the topic y'all sent to the group chat last night.
Now, mind you, we've been in here discussing...
Who's y'all?
You mean, point the finger at yourself.
What, I sent that?
Yes, you sent it.
But go ahead.
Continue on. Let me hear this. First of all, one of my favorite Instagram pages, point the finger at yourself. What, I sent that? Yes, you sent it. But go ahead, continue on.
One of my favorite Instagram pages is Gay Magazine.
Alright? Oh, I love that. I follow that
page too. It's hilarious. It's great
content. Shout out to Gay Magazine.
On IG. I've never followed it. G-A-Y-E.
There was a story on there yesterday
where there was a young man being
objectified. Do we have the clip?
I know personally, I couldn't go to
prison. With my kind of ass, I couldn't go to prison with my kind of ass i
could not go to prison it would be will be seeking heat for the for this ass that's how i believe so
it's raining outside so i got my hood up you know zipped up boom i get the food from my car it's
like a like a silver car down the street i got on my crocs and like that so you really can't see like but I kind of feel like I got a masculine build for you to know like
this is a name but who knows the ass is fat so then I you know my mom leaves
from the little driveway thing the silver damn I turn around once he seen that I had like a
beer then skirts off the thing so what's the question what he got objectified as
a man you know I'm saying and as a human being who's rather thick himself you
know what I'm saying I got women up here like Taylor hating on me.
Jealous. You know what I mean? Because I'm thicker than her.
And I've been in those situations where
I too have been objectified
by other men. And you objectified a man before.
In front of me. You better shut up because that happened
together. I'm going to tell you something.
When you was over there doing
drops, Envy looked over
there and Envy goes, yo, who's that with the fatty?
Yes, he did.
Yes, he did.
No, he didn't.
Yes, he did.
But Charlamagne did say,
yo, that's enough.
I don't believe you.
Ro got a fatty.
No, I didn't say that.
You didn't say that?
I definitely didn't say that.
First of all,
that's Ro James.
Drop on the clues bombs
for Ro James.
Shout out to Ro James.
Ro James is an artist.
He is an artist.
He used to go on
The Breakfast Club.
He's from Queens, too, New York.
That happened to us.
Yes. Ro James was out there. Correct. We didn't know Ro James. All artist. He is an artist. Years ago on The Breakfast Club. He's from Queens, too, New York. That happened to us. Yes.
Ro James was out there.
Correct.
We didn't know Ro James.
All we saw was ass.
And I go, damn, who that with the face?
Or the MP said it first.
MP go, damn, who that with all that ass?
And I said, yeah, who that with all that ass?
And then he turned around.
It was Ro James.
It was Ro James.
And I felt bad that we objectified the brother.
So I had to let him know we objectified him. No, that's whack, though. Because why and i felt bad that we objectified the brother so i had to let him know we objectified him no that's whack though because why would you feel bad that you
objectified the brother but you were all too happy to objectify it if it was a woman we knew it was a
male we knew it was a male no yes i don't think charlotte may do i'm not happy to objectify the
woman either but you did but you would have that was the intention i wouldn't have told her i
wouldn't have said to her hey man we man, we was just talking about that.
I said that to him, though.
You know what I mean?
When he walked in, I had to let him know.
Like, bro, I ain't never seen nothing like that on a man.
So what is the question?
800-585-1051.
What is the question?
Have you ever been objectified as a man?
And if so, how did you react?
How did it make you feel?
Because that dude right there was clearly traumatized.
All right, we'll talk about it when we come back it's the breakfast club come on the breakfast club

Objectifying.
Right, and you've seen this for Instagram page
you follow, Gay Magazine.
Gay Magazine, G-A-Y-E.
It's hilarious.
You know, a lot of good information on there.
And this is one of those stories that I saw yesterday, you know, that I thought was interesting.
Okay.
I know personally, I couldn't go to prison.
With my kind of ass, I could not go to prison.
It would be seeking heat for this ass.
That's how I believe.
So it was raining outside.
So I got my hood up, you know, zipped up.
Boom.
I get the food from my car.
It's like a silver car down the street. got on my crocs and like that so you really can't see like but i kind of feel like i got a masculine build for you to know like this
is a but who knows the ass is fat so then i you know my mom leaves from the little driveway thing the silver car like pulls up
The yells out the window damn
I
Turn around once he seen that I had like a beer then
skirts off the thing
So I thought this was interesting for a number of reasons number one. This has happened to us
Yeah, I'm not gonna sit in line. You know what i mean uh back in the day there was an artist
named ro james ro james was up here we didn't know who ro james was ro james was out there doing
drops all we saw was the ass and we was like damn who was that right correct then he comes in the
room and we realize it was a guy it was a man well we knew it was we knew it was a guy but i didn't
know we didn't know i knew i didn't know. No, you knew it was a guy. Oh, I knew. I didn't know.
You didn't know?
Not when he was out there doing drops.
Oh, well.
Well, you know, I did run into Ro James a couple times in the streets, and he said,
stop talking about his ass.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He said people come up to him all the time about his ass.
They want to see.
They want to see what's happening.
You know what I mean?
And that's happened to me.
That's happened to me, too.
I was walking out of the, well, it's not a Paramount, but it used to be the Viacom building,
and it was a group of guys
and you know
acting like I didn't see them
and one of the guys
was like
uh uh uh
Charlemagne
don't you walk past
us with all that ass
you come back here
come back here
he called
he said something thick
I don't know what he called me
like something
it was something to do with thick
and I felt pressured
to go back and have a conversation
did you?
yes
because the way
they was pressing me
so I went back
and I had a conversation
and they kind of had me in a circle so they cat had a conversation and they kinda had me in a circle.
So they cat called you?
I didn't throw that ass in a circle.
Throw that ass in a circle.
Nah, I didn't do all that.
Throw that ass in a circle.
Whoa!
They had me in a circle like just spinning me around like the rotisserie chicken.
That was kinda wild.
Did you like it?
I mean, listen, yeah.
It doesn't make you feel good.
See, I can't act like it don't make you feel good.
That happened to me before.
Somebody actually slapped my ass.
Do tell.
Tell more. The floor is yours.
I was in Boston.
I was DJing a party, and I just killed the set.
And I heard somebody go, damn, and then slapped my ass.
Ebony, as a woman who's, I'm sure, been getting objectified your whole life.
Yes.
For a long time.
Absolutely.
How should men react to that?
I think you should take it as a compliment.
No, I'm just kidding.
What were you wearing how short was your dress
no i mean it's i think it's interesting hearing y'all talk about this because y'all sound so
offended and and put off and i know both of y'all do this to women on a daily basis and
probably have since you came out the womb not anymore not y'all don't do it now back in the day yeah okay y'all are reformed yeah uh but also have y'all
been objectified because both instances y'all gave you were objectified by men i want to know
as men have you been objectified by women i have i have as well tell me more interesting i have as
well i've had women grab grab my ass reach for my crotch before absolutely and it's well different and it's just gonna sound
crazy in this concern as a woman I don't look at it as
objectification oh I feel like it's more disrespectful really yeah as a dude is
more funny because when the dude did it the first thing I did was I'm gonna call
Charlotte because this is hilarious you get laughing I'm laughing at it you know
maybe call my wife like yo you know what this dude just did because to me it's funny
yeah yeah but with the girl it was like you're touching me like you know i don't know why because
it's more like don't disrespect my wife like that you know i'm a married man don't do me like that
correct you know what i'm saying correct i don't think that's what it is that's what it is that's
what it is so if you were single and a woman just that you didn't know that you did not invite to
touch your person reached and grabbed your crotch, you would be like, oh. How she look?
By
who? What Andy is saying is
what women say. I forgot who
we had up here recently and they were like,
it depends what the guy looks like.
No, Lala. Lala was like,
if it's a guy you're not interested in,
then it's harassment. But if it's a guy you're interested
in, it's like, hey. Well, respectfully,
that's Lala. That's not, I don't think universally true. I'll give's a guy you're interested in, it's like, hey. Yeah. Well, respectfully, that's la-la.
That's not, I don't think universally true.
I'll give you a good example.
Y'all probably remember him.
He was a real fine former NFL player, Darren Sharpe. Oh, yeah, yeah.
I remember him.
A full-on serial rapist.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, and he's fine as frog hair, but a violation's a violation.
You got to say allegedly or was it proven?
No, no, he's in jail.
Okay.
He's in prison for 20 years.
Okay.
I covered that for the NFL Network.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, how would you feel about women objectifying you?
I don't know.
You went to the extreme, Evan.
I'm just talking about a little objectification.
It's levels.
It's levels.
To be honest with you, man, at my big age, I just like to compliment people.
I knew you.
You know what I'm saying?
Whether they come from men or women.
You know, I'm still got it.
You know what I mean?
That's how I be feeling.
I'm still got it.
But don't touch me.
Don't disrespect me.
Don't violate my boundaries.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's good?

So we get to the corner right before Great Papaya.
Your head homeboy said, yo, I'm going to finally say something.
I turned, and I was like, yo, my man, you don't got to say nothing.
It's cool.
You can talk to her.
That's my homie.
He was like, no, my guy.
I'm trying to holler at you.
It's you that I want.
I was like, oh, no, no, no.
Boy, that was the worst day of my life.
So after you got his number, what happened?
Cut it out.
And you clearly didn't look around your environment, bro.
All you got to do is look up on West 4th Street.
You see pride flags everywhere, sir.
No, man, I was cool with that.
I just expected it was going to a time.
Not me.
All right, thank you.
Yeah, you thought them pride flags was Lucky Charms.
He was like, man, they really like Lucky Charms around here.
And that happened to me, too.
During the gay pride parade, the station used to be where they used to do the parades.

It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We got our guest host, Ebony K. Williams, joining us.
What's up?
And what are we talking about, Charlamagne?
We're talking about men being objectified.
Now, you read a gay magazine?
I was not reading gay magazine.
It's an account.
Yes.
I followed him on Instagram.
And I saw this clip pop up.
I know personally, I couldn't go to prison.
With my kind of ass, I could not go to prison.
It would be seeking heat for this ass.
That's how I believe.
So it was raining outside.
So I got my hood up, you know, zipped up, boom. I get the
food from my car. It's like a
silver car down the street.
I got on my Crocs and shit like that, so you really
can't see, like,
but I kind of feel like I got a masculine
build for you to know, like, this is
a n***a, but who knows?
The ass is fat. So
then I, you know, my mom leaves
from the little driveway thing.
The silver car, like, pulls up.
The nigga yells out the window, damn.
I turn around.
Once he seen that I had, like, a beer, the nigga skirts off the thing.
You know, that clip made me think because that has happened to us.
We've done that to a person,
Ro James,
salute to Ro James.
We did that by accident.
Didn't know he was a man.
All we saw was ass.
I knew he was a man.
Now, Ro, I'm going to tell you something.
What's up, bro?
When you was over there doing drops,
Envy looked over there
and Envy goes,
yo, who's that with the fatty?
I did not say that.
Yes, he did.
Yes, he did.
No, he did.
Yes, he did. But Charlamagne did say, yo, that's what I'm talking about. I don't believe you. Bro got a fatty. that with the fatty I definitely say that so you you just comment on his ass

But continue
No, it's not
This is safe space, John
Good morning, Breakfast Club
Good morning, talk to us
So, my incident happened when I used to work in a club
And I had some girls come out to celebrate a bachelorette party.
So, one of the girls brought them up to their table,
getting a bottle, and one of them, you know, reached down and grabbed my stuff.
So, when she saw what she was grabbing
She grabbed
One of the other girls
Was like
Go ahead and grab that
That
You got something going on over here
Did you call the police?
Before I know it
You should have called the police
That was assault bro
You got assaulted
You definitely got assaulted
How did you handle it?
He's gone
How you gonna hang up on a man
Before he gets to his conclusion
My bad
That man was sharing his story.
Because Angelica's on the line. We don't even take
men that happen
too serious. You're right, because Angelica's on the line
and she says she objectified guys all the time.
Wow. I can't wait to hear from
Angelica. Andy?
Yes, ma'am. So,
I objectified guys sometimes
because it started when I was in
college and I walked past a group of guys, and somebody slapped me on my butt,
and nobody wanted to admit to it.
So I'm like, okay, I'm going to get my lips smacked.
So I do it to guys all the time.
So you smack guys on the ass all the time?
I do.
Especially, like, you in the club or the bar, you get a hug from a guy.
The first thing they want to do is cop a feel.
I'm like, no, we're not going to do that.
We're not going to do that.
So we're mad when I do it to you.
How long have you been doing this, ma'am?
You're a serial Melissa, yo.
About 15, 20 years.
Wow.
I mean, I'm not walking around like, yo, daddy with the fatty looks good.
I'm not like that.
Daddy with the fatty looks good.
All right.
I'm getting my thing to do.
So have you grabbed any celebrity asses?
No. Okay. All right. So have you grabbed any celebrity asses? No.
Okay.
All right.
When that men too movement start popping off.
Okay.
You're going to be at the front of the line.
10-4.
10-4.
10-4.
10-4.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's going on, man?
It's Nick.
Nick, what's up, man?
You've been objectified before, brother?
Man, I've been objectified a couple times, man, especially in high school, man.
I used to walk around with tight pants, wear a little, you know, in style, man.
And these girls used to come up, they'd just be slapping my ass like I was a piece of meat, man.
How'd that make you feel?
You know, some girls didn't look too bad, so I kind of liked it, man.
You know, but some girls were a little aggressive, and I was like, damn, you know?
Aggressive is a nice way to say somebody's cosmetically challenged you look aggressive yeah man but i i rolled with it you know what i'm saying i rolled with it i kind of liked it a
little bit okay mac good morning mac hey good morning so tell us about it all right so this
was back in 2003 i was a freshman in high school right And I was just leaving my biology class
And my friend Kim was with me
And I was just walking beside her
And she took a look to the left
And she's like damn Mac
He's like what
You want to share some of the cake
I was like what you mean
You just caked up over there
Like come on now
Damn
Now granted
I'm a freshman in high school
I'm playing football
So you know we going to the gym
Lifting weights
Doing squats
And I'm like self conscious
Like damn

Charlamagne knows this
What's yours Charlamagne
Well they changed a little bit
But I'm 41 36 43 So a coke bottle basically yeah i'm a coke bottle glad you noticed that yeah
always here for you charlotte yeah what's the moral of the story and you're not no coke bottle
but that what am i in envy tell me you look in your lips as you said that i did not look at that
dick you right did you get him with the camera the camera. We're going to play the tape back.
And everybody going to see you lick your lips as you said to me, you're not a Coke bottle,
by the way.
You're not.
We're going to see it.
But 413643.
That is a goddamn lie.
The moral of the story is I don't know how to feel about this.
I'm going to be honest with you.
What?
Because it's kind of like not all women, right?
And not all men.
But the common thing you hear is, depends on how the person looks.
That was objectifying.
Right.
That's the common thing I hear from men and women.
Hmm.
What are you?
I don't know.
Interesting.
It don't matter to me.
Don't touch me.
Oh, I agree.
Don't touch me.
Yeah, don't touch me.
Don't touch me.
But what about everything else, though?
What about the cat call and the, ooh, what's up, daddy with the fatty?
No, no, no bueno.
Nobody ever said that to you.
Stop it.
No, I do.
They about to now.
They actually call me Uncle Snacky.
Nobody calls you that, Sean.
That is true.
I'm not lying.
They call me Uncle Snacky.
All right.
Well, coming up, we got your rumor report.
We got to tell you about Lil Jon.
He's threatening to sue a concert he actually performed at.
Well, we'll tell you about it when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club of the morning.
Every time I hear this song, I hear new bars.
She spits.
I don't know who wrote that.
I don't know whoever did or if they wrote it themselves.
Drop on the clues, Bob.
They snap.
Cardi versus Crazy.
Cardi say, I don't even speak, dog.
Can't no B talk to me. God damn it. No, Cardi's sp. Cardi say, I don't even speak, dog. Can't no bee talk to me?
God damn.
No, Cardi's spitting on that.
Sloot the body in Glorilla, man.
All right.
And you know what?
Shout out to my wife who's taking the kids to school right now.
Happy birthday, baby.
Today is her birthday.
Happy birthday.
Oh, I thought she heard the objectifying conversation.
About what?
Just in general.
I thought she heard it.
No.
What she did?
She deserved to be objectified, boo.
I know.
She did say that because my body fine, baby.
People have been asking us to have Gia up here as our guest co-host.
We got Ebony K. Williams today as our guest co-host, but they've been saying they want
Gia up here because people really want to talk to her about the trip.
Oh, the trip?
Yeah.
Somebody said that to me yesterday, actually.
Yeah.
I was thinking about doing it.
We have another book coming out called Real Life, Real Family, where we break down raising
our kids.
So they were saying do a close to that.
But yeah, we can definitely come talk about the trip, man.
She can't sleep now because Thailand, the time difference is different.
So right now in Thailand, it's what?
Seven in the morning here?
It's seven at night.
So at night, she can't sleep.
So she's up all night.
And then during the day, she's tired.
Well, you know what you got to do?
You got to take her back to Bangkok, baby.
Phuket.
You got to get the Phuket on.
All right, let's get to the rumors.
Rumor has it.
Rumor has it.
Call out her name or you gossiping or you chatty patty.
I don't 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. This is where the tea spills, right? Yes, on The Breakfast Club.
Now, Lil Jon is threatening to take legal action against Live Nation.
Now, this is for the use of Lovers and Friends Festival that they do out in Vegas.
Lil Jon actually was part of that festival.
I think he performed last year.
I didn't see his name on it this year.
What do you think he has the case, Ebony?
Give me more details, Envy.
What is he suing for?
Well, he has a song.
Remember he had that song,
Lovers and Friends?
Oh, for that show?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I don't know if he has that trademarked.
So he just doesn't like them branding
the festival with his song?
Is that the issue?
That's what I think it is, yeah.
So then it would be on trademark,
like Charlamagne said.
If he's got a trademark slash copyright
that gives him exclusive usage,
he does definitely have a case. Otherwise for you but wouldn't he like you said
exclusive usage means you would have to have that uh phrase covered for everything right
or and renewed yeah so a lot of times it's it's for a period of time normally about 10 years
you'll have uh usage um and then he can license it out so it might not be that they need to change
the name they might just need to pay him now uh e, Ebony K. Williams is our guest host today and tomorrow.
So question, you know, back in the day, right, if you were a rapper or you had something that you felt that was yours,
the way that you would trademark it is you would mail it to yourself and never open it.
Does that really work?
Not about as well as common law marriage.
And that's the answer is not at all.
Damn.
Sorry for you.
Damn. Okay. Now now yesterday we reported about
a lotto and uh uh they were saying that lotto wears the same cheetah print underwear all the
time disgusting uh no she doesn't though she doesn't i'm sorry it just no no she doesn't
allegedly disgusting yeah so she she buys a bunch she says she buys them from target she
she buys a bunch of underwear but people were talking about it she put it on ebay
and it got up to 95 000 with somebody was going to pay 95 000 for her underwear i don't believe that i think
i don't know how ebay works but i think people just be doing them just bidding yeah they're not
buying no drawers for no 95 grand well ebay took it down and they said uh it's a violation of their
used clothing policy uh they took it down because of health and hygiene and we thank them for it
you know never mind what i'm about to say you know after the last topic i don't want to talk
about this but i will what that's how you know you've been working with somebody for too long
wow working with somebody for too long because you do that in me you'd be when you've been
wearing the same dress for 13 years how do you know what i've been wearing and i said that to him i'm like bro you wear the same drawers all the years. Oh, wow. How do you know what I've been wearing? Because you used to sag crazy.
And I said that to him.
I'm like, bro, you wear the same drawers all the time.
And pull your pants up.
That was another thing I said to him.
Never said pull my pants up. You used to wear these.
You got these red drawers.
Calvin Klein's.
I don't wear them anymore.
I usually wear Ithaca now.
Okay.
Shout out to Ithaca.
All right.
And lastly.
How many did you have is the question
Calvin Klein
yes
you clearly had a
but you wore him
every day
he probably used to
buy the super pack
no I used to have
like 40 50 pair
yeah he had the super pack
so for Christmas
my mom would buy me
like three packs of it
and three packs
come in at like
three four each
that's what my mother
used to do
every Christmas
my mother would buy me
white feeters
and underwear
in fairness
I wear black
hanky pankys
exclusively I've got like 90 pair what are hanky p In fairness, I wear black hanky-pankies exclusively.
I've got like 90 pair.
What are hanky-pankies?
Oh, you know what hanky-pankies are.
I don't know what a hanky-panky is.
Ask wifey.
They're lace, stretchy.
Taylor, you know what hanky-pankies are.
Yeah, exactly.
Oh, like boy shorts?
No, baby.
They're thongs.
They're lace, stretchy thongs.
Oh, got you, got you, got you, got you.
And I have like 90 pair.
Are they the designer hanky panky?
Yes.
Why'd your mama keep buying you red drawers though, Amy?
They're not red.
And Calvin Klein, just the top is red.
No, just the top is red.
And then it's white.
And then the top is red.
And then it's black.
And it's white.
Okay.
I just thought, you know, he was trying to hide his period.
You used to target on the way.
Ew!
Did you say hide his period?
I did not say that.
Did you say that?
Yes, he did.
Who said that?
What's wrong with you?
You little nasty
lastly ben stephan curry and aisha curry oppose a multi-family development near their home that's
interesting now uh the couple told officials one of the nation's most exclusive enclaves that their
three-story townhouse would in uh would be a problem with their privacy and they said it's
safety and privacy for us and our kids continue to be on top priority,
and one of the biggest reasons we chose to live in that neighborhood.
How do you guys feel about it?
That's interesting.
Go ahead, Ebony.
I don't think that's the real reason.
I think they don't want their property value to go down,
and I don't blame them.
And I read the statement that Steph said,
and he essentially said that.
He was like, yo, we spend all of this money to live here,
to have safety for our children. and he did say something like that like you know he doesn't he didn't say
he want the property value to go down but he said something that's true he used a lot of words to
say i don't want my property value i mean you think about it i buy a house for 30 million dollars
right i'm buying a house because i want the space i want the land i want to be safe i want to be an
environment where i have no neighbors where i have nobody around me want the land. I want to be safe. I want to be in an environment where I have no neighbors,
where I have nobody around me.
And you want the equity
and you want the financial benefit.
The house is still worth what it is.
Absolutely.
So if you put this development there,
it's going to lower the value of the area.
Absolutely.
Positively.
And he also said,
it's not that he said,
I want people to have affordable housing.
I just don't want it here.
Correct.
Put it someplace else.
And Dave Chappelle did the same thing.
Y'all remember he went to city hall and everything.
Yeah. City council meetings and I don't blame them and i think it's a matter of you can do
good and do well and i think people like to demonize people that want to do well and act like
they're horrible people and it's just not the case that's why i hate when stories like that go public
you know what i mean yeah because it makes it makes them look like people that i don't know
them personally but it makes them look like people that they're not yeah you know what i mean yeah well they gotta do now is um i mean they don't
have to but i wouldn't be surprised because i do know the curry's just a tiny bit um you know
from charlotte uh dell and all them anyway um give a little something contribute and support
the low income project you know true outside of their neighborhood yeah
over there yeah yeah especially because i'm sure they're
paying high tax prices and they pay for that for the area for the living for the comfort of having
so much property so that's the reason why those houses are 30 million dollars yeah and let's talk
about the race element right there is a reason why black real estate does not appreciate at the
level that our white peers do and it's this type of discrepancy you know what
i mean so i think it's really important to you know keep it a buck all right well that is your
rumor report charlamagne who you giving that down katu oh man four after the hour man you know i i
feel this individual's pain but you know shoplifting is never cool so i need this uh shoplifter to come
to the front of the congregation we like to have a word with him i don't know his name so i'm putting
this out there in hopes that we can find him.
You have his picture?
Yeah, we definitely have a whole video.
Got the whole heist on tape.
We can play a game?
I mean, we could, but sure.
Okay, sure.
All right, we'll do that next.

So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit it with the heel.
Did she get donkey in the name, please tell me. Absolutely.
I have become donkey of the day.
It's a breakfast club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Yes, donkey of the day for Wednesday, February 1st, first day of Black History Month,
goes to a young man whose name has not been released.
And that's honestly for the best well at least for him because this guy did something that will be pinned on him forever if we ever find his name uh i want to first say this is a public
service announcement you know a call to action if you will uh we have to find this individual
because he is indeed a shoplifter don't know if he's a habitual offender, but as we learned from the amazing Spider-Man,
if you don't stop someone after they commit
what you think is a petty crime,
they will go on to do something even more diabolical
in some cases.
Rest in peace to Uncle Ben.
Okay, if Peter Parker could have just gotten out
of his feelings and stopped that robber
after he robbed a wrestling promoter,
Uncle Ben would still be alive today.
But we learned from that situation that with great power comes in west hollywood salute the circus of books
drop on the clues bombs for circus of books i want justice for you all uh this case is not getting
the news coverage it deserves i saw tmz uh cover it i saw the surveillance footage on tmz actually
and the surveillance footage shows a grown man walking into this
famed adult sex store and attempting to steal a dildo now listen i see how you perked up maybe
now listen uh i know times are hard okay people are desperate all right folks are doing what they
need to do to survive i don't know what this man's situation is at home maybe he suffers from
erectile dysfunction and he's looking for ways to please his woman maybe he's in the closet and scared to go out here and get the real things so
he needs a little something something for himself i don't know this man's situation i just know this
man attempted to do a five finger discount on a dildo who are we to judge okay now what is the
reason this man is getting donkier today then uncle charlotte huh well we all know dildos come
in all shapes sizes and colors if you was to attempt to shoplift a dildo you probably want to get
something between five and seven inches envy you've been rumored to like nine and a half that's
big boy status though right but the thing about those dildos you could probably get that off
before it gets you off if you take something that size right you can get that out of the store
easily the problem with this guy and the reason he's getting donkier today is this man attempted
to shoplift a 30 inch dildo i'm not making this up go to tmz look at the surveillance footage it
wasn't just it wasn't just 30 inches as it was 30.7 inches in length it was about two feet wide
and 11 inches at the base looked like it weighed about
between 30 and 40 pounds it was huge there's only two animals alive that got something bigger than
that okay trust me i googled all right on this computer you will see animals with the biggest
penises i researched it this morning biggest penis in the animal kingdom is a blue whale penis that
penis could be between 8 to 10 feet long if you're wondering what land animal it's the elephant six feet long so just think of that and then think of this 30 inch dildo two feet wide
11 inches at the base and think about how crazy this guy looks trying to shoplift this out of
circus of books in west hollywood it also retails for 700 okay i just want to know who or what this
was for okay is this man dating she-hulk or her cousin bruce banner
now you got to go watch the video because the cashier actually goes after this man i mean as
soon as they notice the penis heist going down the cashier goes after him and then the video cuts
back to the cashier carrying the 30 inch dildo on his shoulder okay now this shoplifter took the
expression go big or go home way too literal.
But we have to find this man.
OK, we cannot have this man running up in sex stores stealing sex toys.
OK, so if you know who this man is, please contact Slong Swiper dot com.
All right. And in the meantime, just give him the sweet sounds and the Hamilton's.

Well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
Yes.
Now, since we have the Honorable Judge Ebony K. Williams.
Last theme music.
Presiding.
They just announced she has a court show coming out.
Brand new syndicated.
Equal justice.
Daytime court show.
Equal justice with Judge Ebony K. Williams.
Now, what makes an attorney a judge,
a judge attorney?
How do you become a judge if you're an attorney?
It's TV envy.
I can't believe you asked that.
I didn't know.
I just wanted to make sure.
I didn't know.
I didn't know.
No, but you have to be licensed to practice,
and I'll ask you for what?
Mediate.
So we can arbitrate.
Okay.
Yes.
Any licensed attorney can arbitrate,
which is what we do on television.
Okay.
Well, you know, we do Breakfast Club Court here on The Breakfast Club.
Correct.
And the past couple of days before Ebony K. Williams, our guest co-host was Miss NeNe Leakes.
Yes. NeNe Leakes stopped through.
And NeNe was up here yesterday, and NeNe made some comments that, you know, went crazy viral.
They were all online yesterday.
And we're wondering, was she hating?
Or not?
Or was she speaking some
subjective truth? Can we hear it?
So the side piece was going
to become famous off of them
but are they famous?
Who?
Robin and Giselle?
I think she's talking about her. Her and her husband.
She said that the lady was going to become
famous off of them.
And I was like, are they famous?
Is the question.
Yes.
Robin and Giselle on the Real Housewives of Potomac.
They may be known.
There's a difference between famous and known.
And then we asked about New York Housewives.
I thought a lot of them on the Real Housewives franchises were famous.
They all famous?
I would think so, especially on the Potomac and Atlanta.
They're famous?
I thought so.
Did you watch New York?
New York Housewives?
Uh-uh.
Who was even on that show?
I think they got rid of
the whole entire cast
and they have a new cast.
Ebony K. Williams was on the show.
She was on it.
I don't know her either.
She'd be here this week.
Is she famous or is she known?
I think fame is subjective, right?
You can be walking
through the mall with your 14 year old and she might lose it over a tiktok star so that tiktok
star is famous to them you know right yeah all right so let's open up the phone lines 800-585-1051
was nene leaks our guest host yesterday was she hating because she basically was saying none of
the house was famous oh she's been the truth she said it's a difference between known and famous. She actually called Robin starless.
I disagree.
I think fame, celebrity, it's all subjective.
You know, like I said, there's kids out here that look at TikTok stars and YouTube stars
that we may not know as the biggest things in the world.
Let's talk about it.
800-585-1050 will take your calls.
When we talk about famous, I think of Michael Jackson.
I think of Kevin Hart.
I think of these huge famous people. That's old school famous, though. Like, that's old school famous. Beyonce's famous. When we talk about famous, I think of Michael Jackson. I think of Kevin Hart. I think of these huge famous people.
That's old school famous, though.
Like, that's old school famous.
Beyonce's famous.
Rihanna's famous.
So is Jake Paul.
Do you know what I mean?
So is a lot of the housewives.
But are the housewives famous?
Are they, are the fame as a Beyonce or Rihanna?
I mean, that's different levels.
What are you talking about?
That's famous to me.
That's known and famous.
There's stars, people on TV
that's not as famous as Rihanna. What are you talking well we'll talk to emily k williams when we come
back she's our guest host and she's the judge 805-85-105 on let's go the breakfast club
can we read that evidence in court absolutely matter of fact um why don't you read it charlamagne
we read out loud go ahead yeah you read that uh well this is from NeNe Leakes, February 3rd at 9.07 a.m.
Are you still on the show?
Three days later, February 12th.
Hello?
And then two days from that, Ebony K. Williams responds,
Hello, NeNe.
Happy to chat in person.
My cell is da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Let me know next time you're in New York City.
Yo, NeNe is so crazy.
Like, are you still on the show?
I can just hear the shade in her voice.
Hello?
So Nene does know who you are.
And then she proceeded to call, per my instruction, or invitation, rather.
Oh, she did call you?
Yes, we had a very lovely chat.
No.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
So I'm not sure what was meant when she came on this beloved program and said
i don't know her that's just factually not true um we so but i want to say this so that that
is just a lie okay so you do know me nini and you do know that i was the first and only black
house wife in fact i was named in nini's legal complaint i am actually a named person as an
example of the racial discrimination that she alleged bravo of participating in she cites my
example what i went through with ramona on camera so yeah the court documents say you do know me
nini okay so anyway so if you catch somebody lying does that mean their whole testimony is a lie
i would argue that at closing envy i would argue that now you have no credibility on the topic.
And you have a reputation for lying.
So do we go to the jury at all?
Is this a closed case?
No, not case closed.
Well, guilty of hating for sure.
And guilty of lying because you absolutely reached out to me.
I didn't reach out to you.
But also, the difference is, because I do agree with nini on the broader point
of being known and being different things bravo housewives charlamagne specifically we have a
particular rabid fan base they actually have a name for that bravo liberty that's called a bravo
liberty so when your celebrity is rude if you were not a known individual but for being a housewife
you're a bravo liberty they can be
really really big celebrities like you say people standing in line people knocking people fainting
people passing out all of that that's great i've seen them do that to giselle and robin at their
live podcast i believe that i believe i have seen that i've seen them do it with some of my
dumb dumb cast mates so former cast mates so i believe that that is different though i was a shot that was a shot
uh you saw this season anyways um that is different though y'all than being i would say
a bona fide celebrity with an actual skill set i think that's the difference perhaps that nini
was talking to and i'm because i'm not a hater i will credit nini as i have done on this show as
i've done on the view uh you know which i guess hosts frequently, you know, that Nene transcended housewives as a genre.
And I would say Nene became famous
beyond being a housewife.
So Bethany Frankel definitely did.
Bethany Frankel did.
Nene did.
Teresa?
You've got...
Teresa Giudice?
No.
You don't think so?
Absolutely not.
I think beyond the housewives,
Teresa is the Bravo Leopardy.
I think you've got somebody like Garcelle Bouvet, who was a known celebrity pre being a housewife.
That only added to her celebrity.
I don't count her in the Kenya Moore of the world.
Or Kandi, because they were known before.
Oh, definitely not Kandi.
Kandi is a...
Oh, yeah.
Ah, Kenya...
Yeah, I...
That was my point.
I think when you look at it, and maybe, like you said, a Bravo celebrity, but I always thought Kandi was famous because outside of just Housewives, she had a successful career with Escape.
Kandi is an R&B legend.
She wrote Scrubs.
She is famous.
She's a Broadway producer.
She's halfway to an EGOT.
So she's famous.
She's famous.
Absolutely.
So what about Robin and Giselle?
They're Bravo celebrities.
I just was with Robin yesterday.
Had a great conversation.
Congratulated her on her new nuptials.
I don't even think that they would argue
with that point. I could be wrong.
Let's go to the jury. Now, starless, I would
say that's wrong. I think
Giselle, I think Robin's a star. I think
Katie's a star. I think all those are stars.
Make sure you listen to their podcast, Reasonably Shady.
On the Black Effect iHeartRadio Podcast Network.
Hello, who's this? Hi,
Floor. Floor, good morning.
What's your thoughts?
You're in Breakfast Club Court.
Yes.
So I definitely agree with Nene.
I think there's a huge difference between being famous and being known.
I mean, especially on the Housewives franchise,
there's people that you can even recognize by taste,
and there's some that you hear the name, and you're like,
huh, who's that? Okay. Interesting. So you agree with nini thank you mama hello who's this hey it's
kim kim good morning we're asking do you agree with me good morning good morning i just want to
say first dj and the uncle charlotte i love you we listen to you every morning we love you here
in duval thank you now we love you more I totally understand that Nene might have been trying to throw a little bit of shade,
but she's not wrong.
I don't know none of those names.
Man, okay.
Big names.
Beyonce, Michael Jordan, Martha Stewart.
Who knows, man?
That's famous.
But that's different.
You're absolutely right.
But even when we talk about that level of fame, you can
name people. And we were talking behind the scenes.
We were naming somebody like Quinta Brunson.
We all love Abbott Elementary. Quinta's winning all
the awards. But Quinta ain't as famous as Rihanna.
No. At all. You know what I'm saying?
So it's level to that, too. Hello, who's this?
Hmm? What's your name?
Oh, my name is Casey Kearney.
Hey, Casey Kearney. Now, we're talking
Nene. She's in Breakfast Club Court right now.
Or I should say Ebony K. Williams Court right now.
What's your thoughts?
Hating or not?
Oh, she hating.
She hated.
Just because you're well-known, it also kind of means you're famous.
Because you can be well-known and not do a damn thing.
Yes.
But, like, if you're well-known, you're pretty much well-known at this point.
Everyone's going to walk up to you and say, hi, I remember you.
You're that guy who did something.
You're that guy who did something.
You're that guy who did something.
You got to do something.
All right.
Well, 800-585-1051.
Sounds like we might have a mistrial.
Breakfast Club, caught right now.
We played the audio from Nene.
Is she hating or not?
Let's talk about it.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired? Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag. I just kind of looked
out of like, this is mine. I own
this. It's surprisingly easy.

My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder,
you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets. Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate.
My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks.
Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption
that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state.
And she paid the ultimate price.
Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Celebrity guest host, our guest host, Ebony K. Williams, joining us today. And we are in Breakfast Club Court.
That's right.
And today we're in court because of what?
Because NeNe Leakes was our guest co-host the past couple of days.
And she went viral for some comments that she made, what she called, you know, Robin Dixon Starless.
And she said that, you know, some of the housewives, she said it's a dip between being famous and being known.
Some people said she was hating.
Some people say she was giving some subjective truth.
You know, our judge here, Ms. Ebony K. Williams, has a unique perspective, which she expressed.
But what do you want to do?
You want to go to the jury?
Let's hear it again.
Yeah, let's hear it.
What do you think?
Yeah, like, again, I was a housewife of real housewives of New York City.
The only black one of that cast.
NeNe really is not credible to me in the conversation because when y'all ask her, you watch New York, you know, Ebony K. Williams.
She said, I don't know her.
We, you know, lie detector determined that was a lie.
We've got the Instagram receipts to prove that.
I'm also a named individual in Nene's legal complaint against Bravo.
Anyway, I do think there is a difference between being a famous celebrity and being a Bravo-lebrity. When your notoriety, which I think is what you're talking about, Charlamagne, people know you.
You are notable.
You are public.
That has to be rooted in something other than housewives
for me to consider you famous.
Famous, I agree.
Yes.
I agree.
Let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Raina from Pearl Springs.
Hey, Raina, good morning.
We're talking Breakfast Club Court this morning.
Is Nene hating or not?
He's absolutely hating.
All right.
Why do you say that?
Well, I think that anyone who's well-known is famous.
Reality stars are famous.
TikTokers are famous.
And maybe she's just mad she's not on the show no more.
Okay.
All right.
You think that was the case, Ebony? She don't seem like she she's not on the show no more. Okay. All right.
You think that was the case, Ebony?
She don't seem like she regrets not being on the show. I don't think she wants to be on the show anymore.
I think Nene feels that the genre of reality TV owes her more credit and more obligation.
And maybe that she hasn't really truly received her flowers.
But if you say that, then you would have to say everybody does.
You got to say New York because New York was one of the main ones.
You don't remember New York?
Of course I remember.
Oh, you're talking about Tiffany.
I thought you were talking about Ramona now.
Oh, no, no, no.
You're talking about Tiffany.
Oh, absolutely.
Absolutely.
I agree with that, though.
Flavor Flav, New York, Nene.
They absolutely kicked down the road.
Created a whole genre, really.
Absolutely.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, this is Rico calling in from New Haven, Connecticut.
Rico from Connecticut.
We talking.
Is Nene hating or not?
No, no, no.
She's definitely not hating.
I think there is a big difference
between fame and being very well known.
I want to make a comment
on what Charlamagne said.
He said that, you know,
TikTokers are very famous to these kids.
Well, the kids know them, and I don't.
And we're all walking through the mall, and only this kid knows who that is.
That person is very well known.
That's not true, my brother, because I don't know if you ever heard of Mr. Beast.
Mr. Beast is, like, really big on YouTube.
Mr. Beast had, like, 10,000 kids in the mall in New Jersey.
Now, you're not going to sit here and tell me just because you don't know who Mr. Beast
is that 10,000 kids do that he's not famous.
Well, yeah, that's one example of it.
But so, for instance, I would say someone like Cardi B, before she was famous, she was
just very well known.
Not everyone knew who she was, but a lot of people did.
But now she's famous.
Cardi B's famous.
She's famous. She's famous in the traditional way that we know.
But being that we knew Cardi way back then,
we had Cardi hosting parties at CIAA in Charlotte, you know,
for our Breakfast Club Day party.
And they was loving Cardi then.
They was taking pictures with her and everything then.
It was just a smaller scale.
Yeah, it was way smaller scale, which means she was just very well known.
When you walk through that mall, that mall
might get shut down because
you're a class boy. And that's the TikToker that you're responding to.
Yeah, the TikToker did it to her. Mr. Beast did that.
By the way, there's not too many people who
shut down malls, guys. You know what I
mean? Like I said, I haven't seen it.
I mean, in this era. No, because
we have too much access to our celebs.
That was like a
what you call a crisscross, you know, that era That was like a, what you call it, crisscross.
You know, that era where, you know, when you came to the mall, that was our only access point to you.
So we would shut it down.
Now we can just watch you on our phones.
Nah, but you know what?
You know what though?
Mr. Beast did announce and tease he was coming there.
He didn't just pop up in the mall and went crazy.
He wasn't just at Foot Locker.
Nah, he wasn't just at Foot Locker.
But if Cardi B says, I'm coming to the mall, or J. Cole says, I'm coming to the mall,
or Khaled, Khaled does it all the time. He comes in and he B says, I'm coming to the mall, or J. Cole says, I'm coming to the mall, or
Khaled.
Khaled does it all the time.
He comes in, and he'll say, I'm coming to the sneaker store, and it's a zoo.
We've seen the people impersonate.
The person that was impersonating Lil Durk, didn't they shut the mall down, or they ran
out the mall or something, because too many people thought he was Durk, and he was chasing
them?
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
What's the moral of the story?
We should ask.
So, what's the verdict?
What's the verdict?
The verdict is guilty, on all counts.
I just need a gavel.
Guilty on all counts,
Ms. Nalix.
And I do,
at the same time,
the culture does owe
her tremendous debt
for what she's done
for reality.
That's it.
Word.
All right.
Does she go to jail?
Does she get lashes?
What happens?
Stop with the lashes stuff, bro.
Jesus Christ.
Just asking. All right. Are you into DN happens? Stop with the lashes stuff, bro. Jesus Christ. Just asking.
All right.
Are you into DNM?
No, no, no, no.
Well, we got rumors on the way.
We got to discuss Beyonce.
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Well, we'll tell you about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.

She said that in the book, too.
The book is great.
I'm not just saying that because that many of my people, like, the book is really good.
No.
I didn't think you would.
I thought you'd rock with it.
I wouldn't say nothing if I didn't like it.
Just be quiet.
What they say at the movies, silence is golden.
Silence is golden.

Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got our celebrity guest, our guest host today, Ebony K. Williams, who has a book out
right now, Bet on Black.
Make sure you pick it up wherever you purchase your books.
Phenomenal read, man.
Amazon and all that.
Like, it really, for anybody trying to not just even navigate their way through this
industry, navigate their way through just different spaces.
Being a black person in America.
Yeah, because you weren't always in entertainment.
You were a well-educated lawyer.
Correct.
From college to corporate America.
But sometimes a lot of us feel like you can't lead with your blackness.
But no, you certainly absolutely can.
And to me, that's what this book does.
And that's the good news about today.
Because of everything our people have done for us,
we get to lead and center blackness.
Yeah, and I just want to put it out there today
that today is Tyree Nichols' funeral out in Memphis.
It's going to be on CBS News, I believe, at 11 a.m.
And Vice President Kamala Harris is going there
for a photo op.
Vice President Kamala Harris.
I don't know about for a photo op,
but yeah, she will be there in attendance.
Reverend Al Sharpton will be there.
Of course, Attorney Benjamin Crump,
he's going to deliver the call for justice.
And I know members of George Floyd's family will be there as well.
I don't know if that's a good move for the vice president to go do.
And the reason I say that's not a good move because they haven't kept promises.
I mean, it's not their fault, but things like the George Floyd Policing Act,
I haven't even heard that into the conversation until now.
We haven't spoken about that in the past year and a half.
I mean, we have,
but I haven't heard them speak about it.
And I know that the family of Tyree Nichols,
the family of George Floyd,
I know they're going to be pressing her about that.
Right.
Absolutely.
And they don't want to hear all that lip service.
Like, what are y'all going to do, finally?
Right.
You know?
That's a lot of pressure, I would think.
Now, Charlamagne, it's Black History Month,
the first day of Black History Month.
It's also my wife's birthday, and we got a Black History Month moment.agne, it's Black History Month, the first day of Black History Month. It's also my wife's birthday.
And we got a Black History Month moment.
Yes, it's Black History Month.
And, you know, for Black History Month, we have a show on the Black Effect Podcast Network called I Didn't Know, Maybe You Didn't Either, hosted by my guy BDOT.
Salute to BDOT.
And this is where BDOT tells you about Black History Month stories you may or may not have known about.
And today, he's gonna give you some game
on Fish University.
Let's go, B-Dot.
I didn't know, maybe you didn't know.
I didn't know, I didn't know, I didn't know, I didn't know.
When I think of Nashville, Tennessee,
I think of country music.
I know they call it Music City,
and even if you Google Music City,
Nashville, Tennessee pops up. Now, when I think of anything black Music City, and even if you Google Music City, Nashville, Tennessee pops up.
Now, when I think of anything black in Nashville, Tennessee, I can't help but call it Cashville,
Tenneke, because that's what Young Buck used to call it when he was rapping with G-Unit.
But dig this. In 1866, Nashville, Tennessee was blessed with Fisk University and formed at Fisk University. And formed at Fisk University were the Fisk Jubilee Singers.
And in 1871,
they introduced the world
to slave songs.
Today, we call those Negro Spirituals.
It was November 16, 1871,
and the Fisk Jubilee Singers
went to Oberlin College in Ohio.
They performed before
a national convention of ministers.
It was
at that event they sang spirituals and other songs that were associated with
slavery. It was one of the first public performances of the secret music that
African Americans sang in the fields and behind closed doors for generations. It
was powerful. In 1873 the Fisk Singers, they went on a tour in Europe.
And while they were in Great Britain, they performed before Queen Victoria and Prime Minister William Gladstone.
Queen Victoria said, the Fisk Jubilee Singers must come from a city of music.
And in that moment, Nashville, Tennessee got the name Music City.
I had no clue Music City ain't because of Kenny Chesney
And Dolly Parton and dump truck Lanny Wilson
Nah, nah
It was those 11 Black Fisk Jubilee singers
Now take that to school or work with you
Cause I didn't know
Maybe you didn't either
Ha! I bet you didn't know that

to stay on top of everything. If you wish to improve, be content to appear clueless or stupid
in matters, you know, in certain matters.
Don't wish to seem knowledgeable.
And if some regard you as important, just trust yourself.
