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

Good morning, USA! weekend was great did nothing which is my favorite thing to do you and me both i did absolutely nothing positively nothing i didn't go anywhere i just relaxed that's it you want to watch suits

hulu at first and now it's on netflix uh and it's just amazing show it's it's a uh an attorney show
based about attorneys and um pretty much based on, but not getting revenge in the way that you would think,
but getting revenge in other ways.
And I really enjoyed it.
No, I caught up on Secret Invasion,
which is a Marvel show on Disney Plus starring Samuel L. Jackson.
No, it's a live action.
No.
Starring Samuel L. Jackson.
And then on Saturday night, we sat around and listened to old vinyl records.
Okay.
Because I didn't know we had a couple of vinyl players in the house.
We had some vinyl records that we were listening to.
You call them vinyl plays?
You don't call them record plays?
I don't freaking know.
It's all vinyl plays.
Vinyl plays?
Jesus Christ.
Vinyl plays.
So we were listening to that.
Then we started listening to the Love Jones soundtrack, which is by far the greatest soundtrack of all time.
And that's also my wife's favorite movie.
But then we started watching Love Jones, drank a bottle of wine.
Fantastic Saturday night.
Okay.
That's my type of Saturday night.
Sounds like you was in bed by 10.
I was actually in bed by like 9.30 because when you're on the couch, that's the bed.
I'm trying to figure out how do you get better sleep unintentionally on the couch than you
do in your bed?
Because you can go lay in your bed and it'll take a while for you to fall asleep.
You can hit that couch and be done for a couple hours.
Gone, gone, gone.
Okay?
All right.
But I had a fantastic weekend.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
When we come back, we got Teslin Figaro.
She'll be joining us for Front Page News.
So don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club on BET.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now let's get in some front page news.
Teslin Figaro, good morning.
Good morning, DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God.
And Red is back in the building.
That's right.
Good morning, Red.
He said good morning.
Now let's start off with sports.
All LeBron James fans, now he's changing his jersey back to number 23
in honor of Bill Russell.
So he's going back to the number 23. I didn't even know that he had changed it back to number 23 in honor of Bill Russell. So he's going back to the number 23.
I didn't even know that he had changed it back to six.
I wasn't paying attention.
But he's always gone between like 23 and six throughout his whole career.
How come they haven't retired 23 all across the NBA?
Nobody should be allowed to wear the number 23 because of Michael Jordan.
I agree.
Like they should retire the number 23 for good.
I agree.
Yeah, because they did that in baseball with Jackie Robinson's number.
Retire.
Yeah, you can't have that number.
Now, let's talk about this missing Alabama woman, Carly Russell.
She was missing, but she came back home the other night.
Yeah, she was found on foot.
Hoover, Alabama police are continuing the investigation into the disappearance of 25-year-old Carly Russell after she was found alive and safe Saturday night.
Let's listen to the report by WVTM 13, and we will talk about it on the other side.
Carly Russell is alive and well.
Hoover police say Russell returned home on foot just before 11 o'clock Saturday night and was taken to UAB to be checked out.
Investigators say they've spoken to Russell since her return,
but the details of that conversation are part of an ongoing investigation.
Yeah, so key word, ongoing investigation.
Now, her family has not made a statement.
Police have not made a statement as of this time, as of this morning.
They have asked for privacy uh but they've
released traffic camera footage which shows her car pulling off on i-459 but that footage i want
people to pay attention in the middle of the article is very clear it says that the footage
is still being analyzed as a part of the investigation in conjunction with the 911 call
they're trying to figure out the accurate time uh that that footage was taken and
you know was that during the time that she made the call now tell us a lot of people might not
know what's going on or what's happening so can you just tell people what happened and how she
became missing how she got over to that side of the road because some people just might have been
just hearing this story for the first time absolutely uh well uh an alabama woman as we
mentioned carly russell uh she went missing uh missing on Saturday because she said that she was driving on the highway and she saw a toddler.
And when she saw the toddler, she pulled over.
Not Saturday.
My apologies.
She wasn't missing on Saturday.
But when she saw the toddler, she pulled over.
When she pulled over, she called her sister.
She called 911.
And then she also called a family member as well and saying that, hey, I toddler on the side of the road you know i'm going to see what's going
on while she was on the phone her family member said that they heard her scream uh and then lost
contact with her and so that is when they believed that she was abducted at the time
and then obviously a national uh manhunt went on for her for about two days it was all over social
media uh the media was also covering as well there were calls for the media to you know do more to
to find her and then uh she returned home on foot so right now um it's just you know a lot of
details that we still do not know we're still developing things are changing like for example
i just saw the update 32 minutes ago with the footage.
So this is one of those things where, you know, we just have to wait until more stuff comes out.
Now, they did say when the officers arrived at the scene, they saw her wig, phone and purse on on the ground.
But there was no sign of the child anywhere at all.
So, well, I'm glad that young lady is home. And if it indeed was an abduction,
you know,
in connection with human trafficking,
I pray to God that we can bring down every single human trafficking organization on this planet.
Absolutely.
And just,
and just for clarity,
because I want to make sure I give that correction.
It was Thursday,
you know,
when she went missing Thursday night.
That's correct.
And Saturday when she was found.
All right. All right. Well, that is front page news.

Yeah, you shouldn't give your child that many snacks.
And I tell all the parents out there,

Processed chicken fingers over fresh strawberries?
Well, it's not processed.
What is it then, Envy?
It's chicken breast.
White chicken breast, not processed.
You said chicken fingers.
Well, no, they're the chicken breast that they made in the fingers.
Yeah, chicken breast is different.
No, it's not chicken fingers from a fast food place, but I would try that.
Also, my child likes

There's something about strawberries that the kids like.
Strawberries, bananas, but...
That's good.
But make them eat more fruit.
But they need a little more substance.
They need a little more meat, Paul.
Fruit is good.
Strawberries and bananas is good.
But they need some meat, too.
Some protein.
It's the processed stuff that's killing our kids.
Or killing us, too, goddamn it.

I don't know if y'all remember what y'all

No. But on June
23rd, 1993,
I met this woman.
We fell
in love and I wanted to be a hot boy.
I ran her off.
How old were you in 1993?
I was 18. Okay. She was 16. Come on, get to the house. How old were you in 1993? I was 18.
Okay.
Okay.
She was 16.
So come on, get to the story.

So 30 years to the day that we met,
after we went and lived our lives and, you know,
matured on other people's hands, we got married.
Okay.
On the day that we met, 30 years later.
That's amazing, brother.
Congratulations, brother. Congratulations, King.
Shout your queen out.
I want to shout out my beautiful, beautiful wife, Sheila Gaines.

No, no, he said he got shut down.
No, no, I said he got shot. in 1993. I don't remember anything from 1993. I'm sitting there trying to think. Like, 1993 specifically?
No. 15? I can't recall much.
No. Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need the VIT, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
It's a new day.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Wake up.
Whether you're mad or blessed.
It's time to get up and get something.
Call up now.
800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, it's Leo.
What's going on, man?
Peace, peace.
Leo, what up?
Get it off your chest.
Man, I don't get all my tits about Charlamagne, man.
Hey, Charlamagne, it's almost been 30 years since you seen Joy pick up a ball.
Stop bringing up Joy when you talk about LeBron. Please, man. Hey, Charlemagne, it's almost been 30 years since you seen Joy pick up a ball. Stop bringing up Joy when you talk about LeBron.
Please, man.
It's almost been 30 years.
What does that mean?
So because a person was prospering 30 years ago,
we supposed to just stop talking about his accomplishments 30 years later?
Nobody bring up Joe Bledsoe.
When we talk about Charlemagne, when we give you your flowers.
I don't understand the logic.
I don't understand the logic, all the comparison you just made.
Charlamagne don't rap.
I don't understand that logic, all comparison.
But there's always going to be a Michael Jordan conversation in regards to LeBron
whenever somebody says LeBron is the greatest basketball player of all time
because the greatest basketball player of all time is Michael Jordan.
So there's always going to be a debate.
Now, for people that just joined us,
earlier today we reported that LeBron
is changing his number back to 23
in honor of Bill Russell.
And guess whose number was 23?
Michael Jordan.
Exactly.
And Charlamagne and myself said
we feel like the 23 number
should just be retired in the league.
That's it.
There was no comparison.
There was nothing else.
Ask LeBron James why he wears the number 23.
And then ask me, are we ever going to be able to separate Michael Jordan from any discussion of LeBron being the GOAT?
Hello, who's this?
Good morning.
Good morning.
Get it off your chest.
I just wanted to give you guys a shout out.
Y'all are like low key my inspiration in the morning.

How long have you been listening to the Breakfast Club?
I've been listening to y'all for like the last four or five years.
Okay, so who do you think should be the new co-host?
Ooh, I'm sorry.
I got to go with my girl.
She's hilarious.
I love her. Okay. And how old are you, Mama? Ooh, I'm sorry. I got to go with my girl, Jess Hilarious. I love her.
Okay.
And how old are you, mama?
Okay.
I'm 33.
33, okay.
She said Jess Hilarious.
Okay.
All right.
Why are you asking that?
I mean, I just feel like it's about time for us to start making those decisions.
Okay.
You know?
All right.
It's summertime.
We're going into the fall.
You know?
I know we said we was going to wait until the rest of the year, but, you know, I just
feel like you might need to start thinking about these type of things.
OK, we've been thinking about it, though.
Watch the throne.
OK, watch the throne.
There's another throne to be added, right?
That's right.
All right.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
When we come back, we got your room report.

We'll get to it next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

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.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country?
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 warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist
who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered.
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's get to the rumors, let's talk Dr. Dre.
Rumor has it, rumor, rumor has it.
Call out a name, or you gossiping, or you chatty patty.
I am 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.
Now, Dr. Dre sat down with Kevin Hart on his show Heart to Heart series on Peacock. I watched that this weekend. I did. I watched that in full this weekend.
All right.
Now, they talked about a lot of things, but one of the things that was very interesting
was the fact that he turned down working with his heroes, Prince and Michael Jackson.
Who did you have the opportunity to work with?
He was like, no, I didn't, that you regret and that you should have worked with.
Prince, Michael Jackson.
You bowed out from working with them?
Yeah.
Both of them?
Yeah. You didn't work with both Prince and Michael Jackson? Yeah. Was it like out from working with him? Yeah. Both of them? Yeah.
You didn't work with both Prince and Michael Jackson?
Yeah.
Was it like a demo tape or something?
Nah, they just asked me to work with them,
and I just, like, what the f*** am I going to do with them?
What?
Yeah, that happened.
What?
Yeah.
Was there, like...
What the f*** am I going to do in the studio with them?
Those are my f***ing heroes, man, you know?
You're Dr. Dre.
Stop.
I respected his answer in its totality, though.
He basically said, what would I do in the studio with either one of them?
Because he said he's better at working with new people.
He said he wouldn't be able to coach them.
He didn't use the word coach, but that's what he was saying.
Yeah, but I think Michael Jackson was great.
Prince is great.
Dre was great.
So the fact that you get all that greatness in the studio coming together,
you can just imagine some of the ideas or things that they would have came up with.
I respect it, though.
I mean, how many people would just jump to work at the chance with Michael Jackson and Prince?
But Dr. Dre's like, look, if I don't feel like I'm going to bring my A-game,
if I don't feel like I'm going to do something new with either one of these icons,
then I'd rather not do it.
But he said, no show's better than a bad show.
Because what if that record wasn't good?
We'd be killing it.
Because we'd be expecting so much, right?
Right.
A Michael Jackson, Dr. Dre record,
a Prince, Dr. Dre record.
We'd be expecting so much.
If it's subpar, we're going to kill him.
Yeah, but I don't think Dre would make a subpar.
I mean, Dre's the same guy that's, you know,
produced for Snoop and Pac and Mary J. Blige
and 50 and Eminem.
Well, he felt like he could do something with them.
He felt like he couldn't do nothing
with Prince and Michael.
I respect the fact that he,
I guess he knew his limitations. Mm-hmm. He said Stevie Wonder, too. That was another person he named do something with them. He felt like he couldn't do nothing with Prince and Michael. I respect the fact that he, I guess he knew his limitations.
He said Stevie Wonder, too.
That was another person he named.
Wow.
Now, Jay-Z, salute to Jay-Z.
Drop a bomb for Jay-Z.
His Sean Carter Foundation raised $20 million at the Black Tie New York City Gala the other night.

NFL commissioner Mike Rubin.

I'm not going to.
Really?
I don't want to say no names.
I heard a couple rappers there paid a million dollars for a Michael Rubin hug from the back.
Is there any truth to that?
Well, maybe, because he raised $20 million.
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos contributed a $10 million legacy donation donation they said twitter founder jack dorsey donated two million dollars so uh salute to hove and getting
all that money now that many uh benefits uh individuals dealing with socioeconomic hardships

I always say keep it off the ground.
There's no reason why all this should be on the ground.
Yeah, I don't care.
It's not my business.
Even if they post on social media, it's still not my business.
And, you know, nothing I hate seeing more than this,
like kids spazzing on parents on social media.
And when parents spaz on their kids on social media, I don't like any of it.
Like there's no other way to have conversations with each other than social media.
There's no other way to express your grievances or your issues nowadays other than getting online and airing out your child or your child airing out parents.
I don't like it.
What do you hope to accomplish by doing that?
Yeah, there's audio.
We don't need to play the audio.
But, you know, this is just a deeper problem when i say when you have when you have children and and children if
you're listening if there is an issue if there is a problem if there is any altercation or anything
you should directly directly go to your mother or your father the reason being is you don't want to
do something that as charlamagne will always say you don't want to do something for a motion and
then think about it later and be like damn i effed up because a lot of the things that you do you
can't bring back you can't take back they're making permanent decisions
based off temporary feelings like yeah you mad at your pops today but you get online and air your
pops out that's still your pops correct for the rest of your life correct you know what i mean
and vice versa if you're a parent you get online and air your child out now you're putting in
publicly embarrassed child traumatized child that's still your child at the end of the day
right and we didn't see that with russell sim day. Right, and we didn't see that with Russell Simmons and his daughter recently.
We didn't see that with Master P and his son.
We didn't see that with Kirk Franklin and his son.
And now this is just, sometimes I just don't like to see family business in the public like that.
I don't know what you hope to accomplish by doing this.
That's my biggest thing.
What do you hope to gain by doing any of this?
Right.
All right, well, that is your rumor report.

What up, DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God.
Peace, peace, Taz.
Let's jump right into it.
Let's talk about this Arizona Republican referring to black Americans as colored people in the House floor debate.
Yes, Arizona Republican Representative Eli Crane referred to black people as colored people in the house floor debate yes arizona republican
representative eli crane referred to black people as colored people thursday in a floor debate
over his proposed amendment to an annual defense policy bill now it prompted a stern rebuke from
the former chair of congressional of the congressional black caucus representative
joyce beatty from ohio let's listen to the exchange and we will talk about it on the other side.
Mr. Chairman, though, that was unbelievably inspiring. My amendment has nothing to do with
whether or not colored people or black people or anybody can serve. Okay. It has nothing to do with
any of that stuff. What we want to preserve and maintain is the fact that our military does not become a social experiment. We want the best of the best. We want to have standards that guide who's in what
unit, what they do. And I'm going to tell you guys right now, the Russians, the Chinese, the Iranians,
the North Koreans, they are not doing this because they want the strongest military possible.
I'd like to be recognized to have the words colored people stricken from the record.
I find it offensive and very inappropriate.
Is the gentlelady asking for unanimous consent to take down the words?
I am asking for unanimous consent to take down the words of referring to me or any of my colleagues as
colored people so colored people is offensive now um yes a bit i think so i mean nobody refers to
anybody black as colored that's not true the NAACP is the national association for the advancement
of colored people we say people of color all the time i don't think i don't think anybody
referred to me as a colored person the NAACP is called the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Right. But we had to put some context with this, though.
You know, we're talking about a bill that was literally about removing race.
Let me just kind of explain what the defense bill amendment is about so adding and arguing with at that particular time was about prohibiting the race, gender, religion, political affiliation for recruitment, training, education, promotion or retention decisions.
So basically it was I don't I'm paraphrasing when I say that it's kind of like saying let's end affirmative action, not call affirmative action, but very similar for the military. And so Representative Crane was arguing saying that no,
we need to remove this because the military was not about being inclusive.
And Representative Beatty was saying no, you're undermining the opportunity for
black people to be able to serve.
So when he used that term in that context, especially for
somebody Representative Joyce Beatty, 73 years old.
So she's remembering certainly a time
when that word was used derogatory.
And since they were literally trying to figure out
how to not consider race,
that's where the offense came from.
So why would we ever name a black organization
something that has always been considered derogatory?
Maybe that's a conversation we need to have.
Nobody's ever referred to me as colored.
I don't think anybody would say, hey, look at the colored boy.
They say people of color.
They may not say colored people, but they say people of color.
We say people of color all the time.
Well, for clarity, and I don't like saying people of color.
And just as a side note, but for just to answer that question on NAACP, it was established in 1909.
So that was a word that was used at that particular time.
So in 1909, yeah was a word that was used at that particular time so when in 1909 yeah
we were called colored people so i guess for representative baity she she feels and many other
democrats because they didn't name it the national association for the advancement of niggas we was
called niggas in 1909 too you are crazy if it's a derogatory term it's a derogatory term like why
would we choose a derogatory term to represent a whole i mean that's another conversation but i i
don't think i've ever been referred to as a colored person and i don't think when that man
was was referring to it i don't think he was trying to refer to it in a nice way well he said
he said colored person then he said people he said black people yeah because people started going oh
you can hear him in the background sounding like they pushed off all i'm saying that's like a black
person going up there and saying instead of saying white saying something else i just think we need
to stop looking at isolated incidents sometime and take a step back and look at the bigger picture because
if that's if that if the colored people is indeed you know a derogatory term we got to change a lot
of things we shouldn't we shouldn't let but i think it was it was deeper than the term no charlotte
rain i mean it was about what they're trying to do to the colored people which is take them
out of not having an opportunity to serve in the military not having recruitment that's not
what she said we're highlighting this because she specifically pushed back on the use of the term
color right right but she pushed back but i'm telling you the reason why she pushed back no
no you're i understand the context of debating over the bill but in that particular moment
she was pushing back against the term colored person she was feeling away because he he doesn't
want colored people to have that when you're recruiting for the military you're saying hey we want a
certain amount of diversity and they're trying to end diversity he wasn't saying she built away
listen i'm not saying he was saying it in a good way i'm just saying we got to take a step back
and say why is this organization called the national association for the advancement of
colored people because that's that's ridiculous if we're saying this is a derogatory term
that is ridiculous off the top.
And the term people of color.
Well, I don't like the term people of color.
Because all you're doing is flipping the words.
Other people, people of color.
But he came out and said he misspoke.
He apologized, right? He said he quote unquote misspoke.
I didn't see anything about no misspoke.
In CBS News, it says Representative Eli Crean said he misspoke after he used the racially charged term colored people on the house floor that's right he okay he used the term colored people
and we need to call the national association for the advancement of colored people to get on his
ass about using the term colored people oh my goodness we don't see how ridiculous we be signing
sometime y'all i don't know i don't know what this is but i do want people to know that uh
when you hear this bill you're going to hear hear about this bill over the next few weeks. And Republicans are
saying that this bill is about a 5.2%
pay raise.
But it is not just about the pay raise.
It is about all of the other amendments
that they attach to it. And that's how
stuff kind of, you know, it doesn't pass
because they attach one thing to everything
else. More than likely, this bill
will fail at the Senate. It did pass at
the House of Representatives. And certainly if it goes to President Biden's desk, it will more than likely this bill will fail at the senate it did pass at the house of representatives and certainly if it goes to president biden's desk it will more than likely be vetoed so
we need to go to the phone lines let's let's open up the conversation to the people because i feel
like you know in the context that this man used colored people right in the context he used it uh
in in this discussion it didn't offend me and if that's the case then
naacp national association for the advancement of colored people should offend us and the term
people of color what's the difference between colored people and people of color
uh i don't you know let's open up the phone line it don't feel right to me 805-85-1051 that's like
talking to my neighbor and be like yeah did you see them colored people up the block yeah but
guess what envy the the n-word don't feel right to you even when somebody else says
it to you but it feels right when you're having a conversation amongst your own that's fact but
that don't mean it's right yeah i've been said we should get stop all of us should collectively
stop using the n-word but when it comes to that term colored people the dude said colored people
then he said black people i don't see how that's offensive if we run around saying people of color all day
and we have an organization
called the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
See, that don't make it right.
I'm just thinking like,
you know, just imagine
your kids playing in the playground
and be like,
hey, who's my daughter playing
with the little colored boy?
That just sounds crazy.
Context is everything.
Yes, you're right.
But in the context that he used it,
it didn't offend me.
But if it does offend, if we're saying now that colored people, right, is an offensive term.
Right. Why do we have an organization called the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People?
Why do we say people of color? And our guy who's a cameraman here, he came in.
He said, I never use people of color because I just feel like you're saying colored people.
Right. In a different way. He's Italian. He just literally came in and said that. He said he's
never felt like it. Colored seems strange
to me, but let's talk about it.
800-585-1051.
What's your thoughts? Let's discuss. It's The Breakfast
Club. Good morning. The Breakfast
Club.
It's
topic time.
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.
Now we're taking your calls, 800-585-1051 if you just join us.
During front page news, we were talking about Arizona Republican referring to black Americans as colored people.
What's his name?
I don't know his name.
Let's play the audio.
Mr. Chairman, though, that was unbelievably inspiring.
My amendment has nothing to do with whether or not colored people or black people or anybody can serve.
OK, it has nothing to do with Mr of your skin, any of that stuff. What we want to preserve and maintain is the fact that our military does not become a social experiment.
We want the best of the best.
We want to have standards that guide who's in what unit, what they do.
And I'm going to tell you guys right now, the Russians, the Chinese, the Iranians, the North Koreans,
they are not doing this
because they want the strongest military possible.
I'd like to be recognized to have the words colored people stricken from the record.
I find it offensive and very inappropriate.
Is the gentlelady asking for unanimous consent to take down the words?
I am asking for unanimous consent to take down the words of referring to me or any of my colleagues as colored people.
The congressman's name is Eli Crane.
Eli Crane is his name.
Look, I'm not saying that colored people is not offensive because everything is about context.
There's absolutely a context where colored people can be offensive, but I don't think that was one of those times and if colored people is offensive then we need to have a meeting because we use colored people all
the time in various ways we say people of color and people of color is just saying colored people
with better grammar naacp is the national association for the advancement of colored
people hell in the weigh-ins intro they say we're happy and we're singing and we're colored so all
i'm saying is if colored is offensive, colored people is offensive,
then we need to have a meeting and revise some things, don't you think?
Well, I mean, the Wayans brothers are black, so they can say color just like they can say the N-word.
They can say it if they want.
But when it comes to anybody on the outside race using it, I don't like it.
I think it's offensive.
And if people don't like it, it just doesn't feel right.
It doesn't sit right with me.
How do you feel about people of color when they refer to us and brown
people as people of color?
Because that's just saying colored people with
better grammar. I mean, I don't really hear people
say that. I see people here say black people.
Everybody say people of color.
What do you mean people of color is used every day?
They use that term all the time.
They lump us all in. They be like
people of color, diversity
and inclusion. When they say people of color, they usually mean what? Black people? They mean brown people. They can mean all in. They be like, people of color. Diversity and inclusion for people of color. When they say people of color, they usually mean what?
Black people?
They mean brown people?
They can mean Indian people.
It can mean Spanish people.
It can mean so many different people.
But colored people means black people.
That's not true.
When you refer to, let's say, somebody Spanish or somebody Indian or somebody, they don't
call them as colored people.
Colored people is referred to as black people.
My point is, people of color,
colored people, it's the same thing.
You're just using better grammar. But if people are offended
by it, people are offended by it, maybe we shouldn't say it.
It seems like... That's all I'm saying. It's a discussion.
But every other organization or group,
if they say they're offended by it, people stop using it.
The LGBTQ community,
there were words that we would say back in the
80s that
referred to them. Like, for instance, homosexual, right?
Now, I don't think I can use that term referring to him.
You can't say homosexual.
I don't think so.
Shut up, Envy.
Why you make me sit sometimes?
Yes, you can say homosexual.
This is when you can't say homosexual.
All right, take the sexual off.
You can't say that part anymore.
Well, that's different.
But back then, you could.
Or same thing with a...
I know you couldn't back then, by the way.
No, you couldn't.
There's never been a time you could just call somebody this the homosexual without the sex maybe i don't remember that time maybe a little person little person before you would say midget
now you can't say midget i still say midget little person sound more offensive well the little people
well you are a little purpose so you could you know what let's go to the all i'm simply saying
is and by the way when people are offended they call their organizations right to have their back yes so if
i'm offended by the word colored people i gotta call the national association for the advancement
of colored people to have my back you don't see how stupid that sounds oh my god all right well
let's go to the phone lines vivian good morning good morning how are? I'm sorry for laughing, Vivian. Charlamagne's a jerk and I hate him, but go ahead, Vivian.
Yes.
I'm calling because I disagree with Charlamagne.
He's saying, okay, first of all, it was established in 1909.
Back then, the term colored was accepted.
And not to mention, it wasn't exclusively for blacks.
It was really for people of color.
And as time goes on,
there are...
Yes.
I just told you.
Why would you say,
why would it be called
the National Association
for the N-Word?
That wouldn't even be considered.
Oh, because...
And there are a lot of terms...
Mm-hmm.
Oh, I was going to say
because in 19...
There are a lot of...
Oh, I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
I was going to say
there are a lot of terms
that over time
become unacceptable.
Like the term,
the R-Word,
you know,
for people with mental illnesses.
Over time, that became, yes.
That's my point.
Back then, there was words that were okay, then we changed.
And you're talking about, she's talking about, okay.
And we're not talking about the word retarded.
People don't like that word.
Okay.
Now it's a different word.
Exactly.
Same thing with midget.
Same thing with these LGBTQ words.
Can we take a step back for a second?
I concede that both of y'all are correct.
I don't disagree with any of those points.
But what I'm simply saying is, why do we still call it the NAACP then?
Why do we still say people of color?
That's all I'm saying.
So what should we change it to?
I don't know.
What should we change it to?
I'm just saying it just feels crazy.
Because this is an established organization.
It's been around for over 100 years.
You know, to change it now, it just wouldn't sound right if you asked me.
But that don't make any sense.
We're saying that colored people is offensive, why wouldn't we change?
And you're telling me that over time, colored people has gotten more offensive.
Why wouldn't we tell them to change the name of the organization?
We should then.
Hello, who's this?
This is Kim.
Hey, Kim.
Good morning.
What's your thoughts?
I completely disagree with what Charlamagne is talking about.
Charlamagne, you have got to take a second and think about the words that you're saying.
You're listening to
respond but you're not listening to understand yes ma'am if the naacp was started in 1909 it
makes perfectly good sense the context text of the word matters like how he was saying it was in a
derogatory manner it's the same way we use the n-word in our culture it's accepted within our
culture but we know surely when somebody's saying it in a negative
way.
So you can't just keep saying, oh, this organization uses it.
So why is it offensive?
It's absolutely offensive the way it was spoken.
You think that makes sense?
Like you think it makes perfect.
Okay.
So let me ask you a question.
We're saying that the term colored people is offensive, right?
You're saying that I'm saying in the context that it was used and the way it was used was offensive i don't think
the context that he used it in on that floor is offensive i think there is a way that that uh word
can be used in the context that offensive but not the way he used it just now on that floor
800-585-1051 we're gonna take more. If you're just joining us, Arizona Republican,
he was on the House floor and referred to
black Americans as colored people. We're
asking what your thoughts. We'll play the audio when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
It's topic time.
Call
800-585-1051 to join
into the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Th in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
If you're just joining us, we're talking about Arizona Republican on the House floor referred to black Americans as colored people.
His name is Eli Crane.
Eli Crane.
And here's the audio.
Mr. Chairman, though, that was unbelievably inspiring.
My amendment has nothing to do with whether or not colored people or black people or anybody can serve.
OK, it has nothing to do with Mr.
Speaker and any of that stuff.
What we want to preserve and maintain is the fact that our military does not become.
You can stop it right there.
And listen, colored people absolutely can be offensive.
But everything is about context.
You know, there is absolutely a context where colored people can be offensive.
I don't think that was one of those times.
And once again, I'm going to keep saying this.
If colored people is now offensive, then we need to have a meeting about the term people of color.
Because that's just saying colored people with better grammar.
And we definitely need to have a conversation about the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
Right. It's like the term when you refer to Jewish people. Right.
And you take off ish right but for years people would just say hey the so-and-so live in that area it wasn't supposed to mean derogatory it was how people would say it then
we realized that they didn't like it that it was derogatory so we don't say that word now we say
jewish but no it's still a context to that too though because you know you can say i remember
we had uh the head of the adL up here, Jonathan Greenblatt.
We talked about that.
And he said it's all about context.
Because you can say that word shortened in a negative context.
Look at it.
We won't even say the word.
Because we don't necessarily understand.
I try not to practice bad habits.
Because we don't know.
You know what I mean?
I've been trying to stop saying the N-word for years.
That's a damn lie.
I have.
You called me...
You said N-word the other day.
Because you be acting like one.
I try not to say it,
but I can't think of no other word.
See?
Let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Shanice.
Hey, Shan.
Good morning.
What's your thoughts?
So I'm not against color.
That's because black women
have different beautiful
colored children.
But I do think we need to look
at the word minority a little bit.
Just because what's the opposite of minority majority right yep why are we left then you know
okay i mean that's just a numbers thing i don't i get what she's saying but it's just a numbers
but minority means is we're low in numbers as opposed to the majority of people which is
but if you put all the colors together We're the majority I'm serious
If you put all the colors together
We're the majority
What's up King, talk to us brother
What's up Envy, I wanted to
Talk about that color thing
So what I noticed though
I'm rolling with Charlamagne on this one
Because what I noticed is
Every morning you guys play like this thing
From the Wayans brothers Where they say we're happy and we're single and we're others.
Singing, singing, singing.
We're not single.
We're married.
Singing.
Singing.
Okay, we're singing.
But that's what I'm saying.
It's like if we go and take offense to some of these words and we got to take it out like he was talking about the N-double-A-Q-P, we got to change that too.
And then we got to stop playing that stuff, you know, in the morning and all of that.
And we're going to be taking offense to it.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, it's common sense to me, my brother.
But, you know, common sense ain't common nowadays.
I'm with you.
Thank you, brother.
Hello, who's this?
This is Shaw.
Hey, Shaw.
Good morning.
Talk to us.
Good morning.
First of all, I think, and
Z is right, it's a feeling, number
one. Number two, it's coming from
people who we perceive
don't like us. And
it sounds like a label when
they say it. When we speak
about it, it's a description.
But when they speak about it, it's a
label. Just like
Jewish people, you don't say,
you say Jewish.
It's derogatory.
Yeah, but those people
also don't have organizations
named after their slurs.
So if colored people is indeed a slur.
Like we have the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
We're describing ourselves.
So why can't somebody else describe us in that way?
Like, I'm trying to...
No, when they say it, they're labeling us.
That's a label.
So what is people of color?
What do they say to us?
What is people of color?
People of color, we're describing ourselves.
But don't you think that's just colored people with better grammar?
No, because colored people is referred to as black people.
People of color is black, is brown people, is Indian people.
So people of color are the face of two?
It could be Indian people.
But colored people is as well.
No, colored people is described as black people.
No, it's not.
When you say colored person, nobody ever think it was a Latino.
If you say colored person, nobody ever think it was Indian.
That's y'all for being stupid.
No, colored people is referred to as black people.
Let me pull up colored people definition.
You're right as well.
We do need to have
a conversation about
changing those
kind of descriptions.
The term colored
in British usage,
the term refers to
a person who is
wholly or partly
of non-white descent.
That is not just
black people, y'all.
What are we doing here, man?
Seriously, what are we doing?
Why are we acting
so silly here?
Well, what's
the moral of the story? I what's the moral of the story?
I mean, the moral of the story is what I said earlier.
I'm not saying that colored people is not offensive.
Anything can be offensive, right?
Because everything is about context.
So there's absolutely a context where colored people can be offensive.
I don't think that guy using it on the floor was one of those times.
But on another note, if colored people is offensive, if it is a slur, as y'all are trying to tell me this morning, then we need to have a meeting.
Because we say people of color, and I feel that's just saying colored people with better grammar.
And we have the NAACP, which is the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
We need to have a meeting and revise some things, don't you think?
Right?
Well, we could discuss.
Especially when y'all keep saying, well, we created that word back in 1909, but over time it seemed to be a bad word.
All the more reason we probably should revise some things, right?
All right, well.
I'm just simply saying, like, what do we, we're arguing about something that seems very common sense to me.
Okay.
All right, well, let's get to the rumor report.
Let's talk about big colored **** then.
BBC.
Well, it's actually big black ****. Yeah, black yeah but it's not colored but i but i changed
it the colors that you like bcc big colored bcc okay all right we're gonna talk about bccs when

They said it's been, I think, July, the July 3rd, 4th and 5th was the hottest days ever.
I saw that. Well, y'all thought climate change wasn't real.
Yeah. Yeah. Y'all listening to all these climate change deniers as if, you know, what's happening on this planet isn't real.
But you start to see the effects of that now.
They're saying in Vegas is over 100 degrees the last couple of weeks and also in houston it's been you know
over 100 degrees last week and this week so climate change is real people jesus christ
all right now when we come back uh we got to talk adam 22 you know he's a
podcast and not only that he's a ex-porn star so he talks about his wife was a porn star so he talks about his wife it was a porn star yeah oh i didn't know that allowing his wife
to have uh a bbc takeover we'll talk about that and then rewarding her with a lambo yeah we'll
talk about it when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj envy
charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club some thoughts to ponder on this monday morning uh
all is ripping out the plastic.
Yes.
Is anyone recycling?
Recycling is important.
Oh, shut up, man. Okay?
And it's all fun and games until the ripping out the plastic challenge becomes about condoms.
Rip me out the plastic, not a baby brand new.
Happy Monday.
There you go.
Well, let's get to rumors.
Let's talk Adam 22.
Rumor has it.
Rumor has it.
Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patting.
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.
Now, Adam 22, you might know him.
He's a podcaster.
He's the host of the No Jumper Podcaster.
Podcast, excuse me.
He's also a porn star.
So he's been trending the last couple of days because he revealed that he was allowing his wife lena the plug to film her first
ever intimate scene with another man now the man is uh big black dude the big colored yeah i wasn't
gonna say big colored oh you want to say color now no no no no no now we talk about after they
filled filmed the scene leaning the plug who this was the first time ever
having an intimate scene with another man and this was a big black dude you know how it is once you
get into the moment it's like you know it's all no holds barred let's go do you think that you
her better than adam did well obviously yes but i'm pretty sure he probably felt different with
adam for her because love is involved emotions But as for the physical aspect of getting obviously.
Right.
You need to find that brother's name and say that brother's name.
What's his name?
What?
Name is Jason Love.
OK.
Jason Love.
Jason Love.
I mean, big and black and all this other crazy.
I did not say the big black brother, but also Jason Love.
So now Adam 22 talks to his wife.
That was him talking to him.
Give him play by play of what happened after the porn session.
A post game on the pound town is crazy.
Do we need a post game on the pound town?
I don't think we need a post game on the pound town.
Well, she did one too.
And she talks about how her vagina felt.
I was in a lot of pain for a few days.
So having sex was, you know.
It was reupholstered.
You were a little traumatized by me being like, ouch.
Hold on.
At first, yeah.
But that did go away pretty quickly.
It took like three or four days, yeah.
You feel like it snapped back?
Well, you never had the natural birth that you were planning on.
I don't believe that a vagina stretches from having sex once for 40 minutes with a bigger dick.
You know, now that I'm getting more context
about this situation, I don't see the issue
with any of it, if all of them are porn stars.
Well, he rewarded her with a Lamborghini
truck after having her first scene without
him. What'd you say? What'd you say, what?
I don't see the problem with it if all of them are porn stars.
If all of them are porn stars, this is what porn stars do.
Yeah, but when do you retire? I'm sure
Adam is making enough money.
Adam bought her a Lamborghini. When do you retire i'm sure adam is making enough money just bought her adam bought her a lamborghini when do you retire and before that she never did a scene with anybody else so
now she has the scene with somebody else now i get it if that was the only way of income that
was the only way of making money but that's still his wife at the end of the day they've never done
a scene like that now well if your business is porn and um you know you're exhausted i guess maybe
the possibilities between you
and your significant other, like everybody's seen that a million times,
you got to do something else, right?
Yeah, but when do you stop?
You're hosting podcasts.
She doesn't have to do it for money anymore.
I don't know these people's financial situation.
And the only thing that he said that he didn't want is he didn't want her
to have a facial and no kissing.
Pound Town, just left Pound Town. I don't know, man town i don't know man i don't know man well speaking
of pound town sexy red made an appearance at a high school and people are upset now in a clip
she enters the school gymnasium to the music she's throwing up the middle finger and gang
signs and people are saying that she shouldn't shouldn't have been allowed to in high school
why well she responded y'all do know i went there to give the boys money
for their haircuts and girls bundles for prom week because i remember when i needed help with
my prom and stuff so people are saying that the principal should have made a different pick it
should have been another uh appearance for another school maybe she should have did college and not
high school what that's what they're saying i don't know man it's not like the high school
students don't listen to the to these songs and records and watch these videos anyway.
But they're saying bringing it to...
Wasn't she there to do a good deed?
She was there to do a good deed.
Isn't that what should matter?
The fact that she did a good deed?
Yes.
But people are saying maybe they should have picked another artist.
Maybe they didn't pick anybody.
Maybe she chose to do that.
Maybe that artist...
What's her name?
Maybe Sexy Ray said, hey hey this is what i want to do
for this school maybe the school didn't pick her maybe she just woke up one morning and said you
know what i'm making some money now i want to do something good for some kids i'm gonna choose
this school yeah what are we talking about here well people are upset about that and upset with
the principal and what if it was a sex ed class what if those kids need to know what color booty
hole is you shut up have you ever thought about that no okay did you know what color a booty hole is. Shut up. Have you ever thought about that? No. Okay. Did you know what color a booty hole was before sexy red?
No.
Exactly.
See, you educated a lot of us.
It's brown.
It's brown.
It's brown.
I've never looked, you know, but I would assume it's brown.
It's brown.
Yeah.
And lastly, syphilis is making a return.
Syphilis has increased 128% among women in Houston since 2019.
And that ain't sexy red fault.
Now, who you going to blame for that?
Okay. They said new affections rose by 57 57 that's all that ripping out the plastic people taking them condoms off there were 2,900 new infections in 2022 damn what's the ride why come on give me a
reason why you can't just say that what's the real ain't no reason why they said there's a rise it
says uh syphilis has happens when a pregnant person
passes bacterial infections and now your baby can get it in the womb uh if untreated can lead to
stillbirth or damage the baby's organs or bones so they're saying please get yourself checked out
and double check but syphilis has increased 128 among women well i just looked and said sexual
health in general really seems to be undereremphasized due to a lack of screening. Other significant issues such as access to care, funding, lack of available clinics.
All of these factors contribute to the rising rates of sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis.
Damn.
Old world.
Happy Monday.
Y'all better stop ripping out them plastics and keeping them plastics on if you know what I know.
Jesus Christ.
All right.
Well, that is your rumor report.
Now, who you giving that donkey to?
Before after the hour, we need a man named Gary Hillman
to come to the front of the congregation.
We'd like to have a word with him.
I don't know how many other ways to tell y'all to stop drinking and driving,
but we'll discuss.
All right, we'll get to that next.
Don't move.

And iHeart Radio Station you get donkey of the day
when you come ass
you get donkey of the day
when you come ass
you are a donkey
it's time for donkey of the day
donkey of the day huh
I'm gonna fatten all that shit around your eyes
they want this man to throw them blows man
they wait for Charlamagne to tap these gloves
let's go
they had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the donkey of the day.
They chose you.
There's a breakfast club, bitches.
Who's donkey of the day today?
Well, Ed Sheeran, donkey of the day for Monday, July 17th goes to Gary Hillman.
I feel like I just be telling y'all the same things over and over and over and over again.
But Gary Hillman is 48
years old and he was arrested for being more than three times over the drunk driving limit
let me tell you something I don't know why we are still getting on this radio and telling people not
to drink and drive with all these ride share companies that exist today there is absolutely
no reason but here's the thing it's one thing to get behind the wheel it's another to get behind the wheel and still not knowing to quit see gary hillman was determined
to either kill somebody or kill himself when he was driving drunk what do you mean uncle charlotte
well gary was pissy drunk and on friday around 2 50 p.m clearly day drinking okay clearly just
left for brunch or something he collided with a security
fence after going too fast around a corner he failed to stop and report the accident
and he carried on driving now he said he was just drinking vodka i don't understand people
who get this drunk because you would think a crash into a fence would sober you up you would
think a crash into a fence would make you realize, man, I've had one too many.
But no, Gary kept driving.
And then as he was approaching a roundabout, he crashed into a central reservation, which caused his airbags to be deployed. Now, at this point, I definitely don't think driving would be possible, but Gary kept going.
He turned around on the highway and stuck his head out of the driver's window in order to see
over the airbags he was said to be driving slowly but he been onto the wrong side of the road
on which he was traveling for three quarters of a mile at one point gary drove head-on directly
towards an ambulance which had his blue lights and sirens on imagine that this ambulance on the
way to help somebody in need maybe even had somebody in there already and g And Gary could have hit them head on and killed everyone in the ambulance.
OK, one of the officers said it's nothing short of a miracle that there wasn't an extremely serious incident leading to serious injury or death.
Now, when police finally caught up with Gary, stupid ass, his blood test was taken, which revealed he had 249 MGs of alcohol and 100 MGs of blood.
I have no idea what that means i just know the legal
limit is 80 and he was three times over the limit now gary did say he was remorseful and his lawyer
said he had hit rock bottom at the time of the offense and he recognizes there was a problem
and he has been in contact with alcoholics anonymous to help rebuild his life good for you
gary that's what we want to happen but that doesn't mean you will not be held responsible for the consequences of your actions this man has clearly watched
one too many fast and furious movies all right this man thought he was dominique terretto how
many times has ben diesel's car exploded and he kept driving it all right i don't know how many
other ways to tell y'all not to drink and drive i thought this was something that collectively
we all decided was a terrible idea years ago if you want to drink stay your ass home okay if you want to drink do it
at a friend's house where you don't gotta leave if you want to drink factor your uber or lyft into
what you plan to spend that night on drinks because there is no reason to be drinking and
driving no reason at all there's not one single solitary reason on this third rock from the sun for you to be
drinking and driving.
Do I have to tell you that each drink you drive impairs your ability to drink?
Wait, what the hell did I just say?
Each drink you have impairs your ability to drive.
Okay?
There you go.
That's right.
If you are drunk, don't drive.
All right?
Don't even putt.
That was a golf reference.
Maybe if we make it rhyme, people will listen.
Let me try.
Allow life to thrive.
Don't drink and drive.
Look, man, the moral of the story is drinking and driving.
There are stupider things to do, but it's a very short list.
Please give Gary Hillman the biggest hee-haw.
I don't even know any other ways to tell people not to drink and drive no more i mean we say it all the time it's unbelievable at this point it's like how many
you know how much money was spent on don't drink and drive campaigns yeah like come on there's
nothing i can say nothing that i can say that somebody shouldn't know already about drinking and
driving.
And like you said, if you're going to go out and drink and drive, maybe just put the Uber
or whatever.
That's right.
Taxi cab or.
Yes.
However you need to get home.
Put that in your budget for the night.
Come on, man.
And just think about it.
Each drink you drive impairs your ability to drink.
You lift.
Whatever you need to.
I mean, each drink.
You know what I'm trying to say here?
You drunk now?
What am I trying to say? I don't know what you're trying to drink. You lift. Whatever you need to. I mean, you know what I'm trying to say here. You drunk now? What am I trying to say?
I don't know what
you're trying to say.
Each drink you have
impairs your ability
to drive.
There you go.
There you go.
All right.
Well, that is your
donkey of the day.
Shout out to BET.
We'll see you tomorrow.
Everybody else,
let's open up the phone line.
800-585-1051.
We were talking about
Sexy Red.
Now, there was a clip
of Sexy Red.
They say,
performing in front of
a school-aged children.
It was a high school that hit the internet.
Oh, I didn't see her perform.
I thought she just showed up.
That's what the report said.
But she said, I actually didn't perform.
It was prom week, and I went up there to give the girls bundles and the boys money for haircuts.
Because I remember when I needed help with my prom stuff.
That's right.
Drop on the Clues, Mom, for sexy red.
All of y'all out there talking about the school shouldn't have picked sexy right i think sexy red picked the school so people were upset
they said you know they shouldn't have picked sexy red they said uh if you don't know who sexy
can you play a snippet of her record so people know what it is she the one who say your booty
hole brown well she says vagina pink and booty hole brown there you go just so you can hear so
you know what it is okay you got a blank you got a blue booty hole brown There you go just so you can hear So you know what it is You got a booty hole
I guess they do
You can't say booty hole
So if they blank it why you keep saying it
I didn't know you couldn't say booty hole
Alright so people upset
People saying that the principal shouldn't have hired her
That taking teenagers to pound town
Is not right
The administration that allowed this to happen That, you know, taking teenagers to pound town is not right.
The administration that allowed this to happen needs to be ashamed and fired because this is just ridiculous.
I don't think anything was wrong with her going to provide haircuts and bundles for them kids.
All right. So we're asking 800-585-1051.
What are your thoughts on this? Y'all worried about the wrong things, man.
If she didn't perform for them kids, it shouldn't be an issue.
If she came to that school and she's garnered enough money from telling people that their booty hole is brown
that she can buy bundles and haircuts for them kids, I have no problem with it whatsoever.
Well, let's talk about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051 to join into 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.
Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Sexy Red.
Now, Sexy Red, of course, she performs the My Vagina Pink, My Booty Whole Brown, that record.
All right.
So recently she went to a school and she went to basically people thought she was there to perform.
But she cleared that up.
She said, I actually didn't perform.
It was prom week.
I went up there to give the girls bundles and boys money for haircuts because I remember when I needed help with my prom stuff.
It was trending.
People were kind of upset.
You know, they left comments like the principal should be fired.
Taking teenagers to pound town.
No way.
The administration that allowed this to happen needs to be shamed and fired because this is beyond ridiculous.
And the whole stuff.
Did your high schools have performers?
Come back, kids, listen to common sense.
Would it be that she didn't perform anything vulgar for the children.
People are saying, well, why is she going to high school instead of colleges?
That's what they're saying.
So the administration that allowed someone to come into the school and provide resources for the students should be fired.
That makes zero sense to me.
She didn't perform.
You know what I mean?
If she had performed that song, that might be inappropriate for kids, even though these kids are listening to it on their screaming services every day.
But if she had came in and performed, that'd be different.
I did see a video where she walked in and flipped off everybody.
She gave everybody a middle finger.
That was inappropriate.
You know what I mean, for that crowd.
And then she did the, I guess, the booty hole brown, the booty hole sign.
Or was that a gang sign?
The Capitol sign.
The booty hole sign.
I have no idea.
But anyway, so people are mad at it.
Look, she's an artist and as a kid when
when artists used to go to my high school yes of course they're gonna play they say vulgar stuff
in their records but she wasn't performing she was actually giving back and even if she did perform
i understand parents might not like it but these are high school students they listen to it all
day long i wouldn't want her to perform if If she performed, that is on the administration.
Because, you know, usually these songs come with parental advisory stickers.
Correct.
Right?
So it's up to the parents to determine whether or not, you know, these kids should be listening to this music.
So if you did bring in an artist like that who had those type of explicit lyrics, there should have been some type of form that went out that said, hey, we're going to have a performance from Sexy Red.
Do you want your child to be a part of this performance? she did not perform no she didn't so to your point yes
rappers make explicit music that's what rappers do male female it doesn't matter they've made
explicit music historically throughout the years that should not take away from any good deeds that
they do this young lady decided to do a good deed at this school she provided haircuts and she
provided bundles i respect it yeah i don't i
don't have a problem with that she didn't perform and let's not get it twisted like you look at all
these concerts and festivals rolling loud and all that you got to be 16 and over so these kids are
hearing the music but to have them perform you're right if they got you know parental approval then
that's not a problem but she didn't perform all she didn't perform all she did was do a good deed
so i don't i don't have a problem with this young lady doing a good deed. Hello, who's this?
Emerson.
What's your name?
Emerson.
Hey, what's up, bro? What's your thoughts?
Uh-oh, thank you, man. I mean, I don't think she should have went up there, all due respect to her,
but we didn't flaunt, even though we listened to that type of music in high school, we didn't flaunt it.
I don't know about that. I mean, all the school parties, we danced to it.
I mean, there wasn't a problem. Yeah, but at the school gymnasium, no.
She didn't bring it out like that.
Oh, no, no.
You're right, but she didn't perform, though.
She didn't perform.
Oh, she didn't.
Okay.
Well, she went there to do a good deed in all respect to it,
but performing that would have been a different story.
Oh, no, I agree.
If she performed like that.
We grew up off Uncle Luke.
I loved Uncle Luke back in the day.
They wasn't bringing Uncle Luke to perform for no high school, though.
You know what I'm saying?
I can understand if she would perform, people being
upset. For her just doing a good deed? No,
I'm not mad at that. Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's up? This is Sean from V.A.
Sean from V.A. 757 to 804.
757, baby. You know what it is.
Amp the Rose area, bro. Talk to us. What's your thoughts?
Yeah, yeah. I'm not really feeling that, man. I mean,
if she went in and actually did the performance,
I don't think that would have been a good look.
If she just went to drop some money off and show her face, that was cool.
But if they said she performed, that's crazy.
She didn't perform.
She didn't.
That's how my brother, she did not perform.
No, she didn't perform.
Okay, okay.
If she didn't perform, that's different.
But that's the problem, I think, most people thinking is what happened.
Because imagine Uncle Luke coming in our era with two live crew to perform
at our high school.
That would be crazy.
Let me tell you something.
Me and Breakfast Club listeners are usually on the same wavelength.
I just said the same exact thing.
Yeah, you just said it.
I love our listeners because they got common sense for the most part.
But it's also not her fault if she walks in the building and the DJ plays her record.
Like, that's what happened.
They had a DJ?
Yeah, they played her music when she walked in.
They shouldn't have had no DJ
I mean cause you know she probably had to get on the mic
And explain what she was doing
Man TJ probably was so confused
Did she say what is pink and what is brown?
What?
Hello who's this?
Man it's Exclusive
What up what up
What's up bro talk to us
What's your thoughts on Sexy Red?
Man I'm kinda like up to Charlotte's height
They should have
got the full context of everything before they made a judgment on it because i think it was a
great thing that she did just because she made a song hey man i would have been great if uncle
luke would have did it back in the day when i was in school jesus christ that's the third uncle luke
reference this morning uncle luke by the way uncle luke was way more explicit than sexy red
absolutely i don't care what y'all say because by the way uncle Uncle Luke was way more explicit than Sexy Ray. Absolutely. I don't care what y'all say, because by the way, Uncle Luke was telling us what the color of feces was.
All right?
Doodle brown is stupid.
Doodle brown.
You know what I'm saying?
He's stupid.
And by the way, what about, you know what's so bad about that song?
What?
What about everybody whose vaginas aren't pink?
You know, because the labia can have a purplish color sometimes.
It can have a reddish or brown color.
You know?
So you're saying she's actually giving us medical research research about i'm saying that she's excluding some people no but she's saying her
vagina is pink and her booty hole is brown oh she said her person oh okay i didn't my pink my booty
hole you're right you're right she's talking about herself you're right you're right you're right you
right it don't matter she did a good deed okay and by the way it takes a person from a certain
community to know that these girls need bundles i ain't never heard nobody by the way, it takes a person from a certain community to know that these girls need bundles.
I ain't never heard nobody.
By the way, I ain't never heard nobody buy a bunch of girls a pack of bundles.
Drop one of Clues Bomb for Sexy Ray for really caring about our people.
We hear about haircuts all the time.
I provide haircuts every summer back home in Moscow and South Carolina when I do my book bag drives.
Now you got me thinking I got to step my game up and provide some bundles, Sexy Ray.
You know what? Because during the car show, I give free haircuts. Monster Now you got me thinking I got to step my game up and provide some bundles, Sexy Red. You know what?
Because during the car show,
I give free haircuts.
Monster, you know,
free haircuts.
So now...
I'm doing bundles this year
because of you, Sexy Red.
Because we already do...
I do my book bag drives.
Bundles be expensive, though.

We're talking sexy red.
People are mad at her.
People are mad at the school because she went to the school.
They thought she was performing.
She didn't perform, but she went there to give boys haircuts and girls bundles.
We'll talk about it more when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Come on.
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 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.

I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Ladonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country? 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.
We need help! We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection, It was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.

Call 800-585-1051
to join in to the discussion
with The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy Charlemagne, the guy.
We are The Breakfast Club on this Monday.
We're talking about Sexy Red.
She was trending over the weekend.
Because there's a clip of her going to a school.
They said she was performing.
She wasn't performing.
But she went to the school.
They played her record.
And people are mad saying that she shouldn't have been at the school.
They said that the principal should be fired.
They said that she shouldn't be taking teenagers to pound town.
Well, she responded.
She said, I actually didn't perform.
It was prom week.
And I went up there to give the girls bundles and boys money for haircuts.
Because I remember when I needed help with my prom stuff.
Hey, Sexy Red, I don't know you.
You did a good deed.
F what these people are talking about.
Right.
So we're just going to the phone lines.
I agree.
Hello, who's this?
This is Jason.
Jason, what's up?
Talk to us.
Man, I want to comment on this.
Man, this is an artist trying to promote her craft, man.
So she's going to do what she do to promote her craft.
But if she never performed it as true and she did something positive,
why is they focusing on the small stuff that you see all these artists do
when they do stuff like this?
Because you know we live in an era where everybody got to focus on the negative.
Nobody ever wants to focus on the positive.
We always got to find a way to tear somebody down.
Because of Sexy Red, mad little boys got head cuts and mad little girls got bundles.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this kid Swagger from Jackson, Mississippi.
I'm on the line, on my brief, on my birthday.
Hey, shout out to me and the guy DJ Invin, who our special guest here today.
Nobody.
Happy birthday, brother.
Hey, hey, you said brother.
I don't know why he called you a brother.
I can clearly hear the day in your voice.
Shout out to me.
Yes, ma'am.
Say it again.
Say it again.
Say it again.
NCC, there go DJ Invin.
I'm just waking up, man.
Like I told you, it's a cancer year, cancer day.
It's my birthday.
I got through to the breakfast club.
Thank you. Happy birthday,
sister. Appreciate it. Appreciate it.
Now you got it right. What's going on
there, y'all? What's your thoughts on
Sexy Red? Was she right or wrong?
Let me tell you something like this, y'all.
We can't really never say when a celebrity is really
wrong when they show up and pull up
because let me tell you something. When a celebrity
get an opportunity and then just come out and me tell you something. When celebrities get the opportunity
and then just to come out
and to, you know, out
and people, your fans,
get a chance to see you,
even if they're not a fan.
Just because who you are
and you have that platform,
that means a lot.
Yeah, I think you just joined us
and you don't know what we're talking about,
but we appreciate the phone call.
Did you really know that was a girl?
Yes, I knew that was a woman.
How'd you know that? I just, I could hear it, man.
I couldn't hear it. Because you don't want
to hear it. I did want to hear it.
Pound Town just left Pound Town.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up? It's B-Mob from the Metro.
What's good, man? B-Mob for the Metro.
Talk to us. What's your thoughts, bro?
Now, look, I agree with what Sexy Red is doing.
She obviously said,
y'all do know I went there to get a boy's haircuts and give the girls bundles for their proms because I remember when I ain't had none.
Correct.
So I love the way that she handled herself with class.
She didn't go on Instagram Live and go crazy or nothing like that.
So, nah, Sexy Red is absolutely right.
And another point that I will actually say about Sexy Red, too, is that she shouts out the men on pound town like my n***a f*** me out or whatever
like she actually respects masculine energy and stuff like that and the way she the way she
approaches herself and that's why i think people love her so much okay i'm not mad at it man she
did a good deed she didn't if she would have performed at the school i can understand people
you know maybe having some complaints but all she did was a good deed right what's the moral of the
story the moral of the story is man 100% remy human hair bundles cost between 40 and 150 dollars
salute sexy red i don't even know how many she bought but i know that was a nice little pretty
penny if she had to buy it for a whole school so salute to that woman man for making uh you know
easing easing the burden of somebody having to pay for some bundles, man. Salute to her.
All right.
Now, when we come back, we got your rumor report.

All right.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Birkins.
Rumor has it.
Rumor.
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.
Now, we got to send a rest in peace to Jane Birkin.
She's an actress and singer who inspired the Hermes Birkin bag that you see all these women and now guys rocking.
Now, these bags are about $8,000.
They can go up to $100,000 a bag.
You just can't walk in and buy a Hermes Birkin.
You actually have to start a
relationship now rumor has it that she was on a flight with uh i guess the owner of hermes
way in the 80s and i guess she was having too much stuff in her bag that she carried and she
was just like this is a hassle all these bags are too small i can't put things in my bag and the
owner of hermes at the time was on a flight where it was like I'm gonna make something for you and they created the Birkin bag in her name but how did the young lady pass she passed
away uh she was 76 years old oh okay she was 76 years old yeah they said that uh two years ago she
suffered a couple of strokes so uh I guess they're saying she had a handful of health concerns so
she passed away so definitely rest in peace and that's the reason
why you women out there have birkins oh god bless her she was an actress and singer though so it
wasn't like just some random woman no no it just wasn't that random on the plane no she was a
random woman on the plane they decided to take her last name yep she was a british actor and singer
yeah i wonder if how much she got off of that birkin you know i mean like if does she get a
percentage because they named it after her once i'm sure. All right. Now, Hailey Bailey's ex-boyfriend, DDG, people are saying that he's soft and that he's too sensitive because he talks about him being insecure about dating Hailey Bailey.
Right.
So people have been calling him a simp and soft and a sucker and all these other things.
But he's just speaking what he's been going through.
I said this last week when we were discussing Kiki Palmer palma baby daddy why can't men express their feelings why can't
that man express his insecurities we have all these conversations about you know how men don't
express their feelings and you know we want men to go do the work on themselves by going to therapy
so they can properly learn how to communicate their feelings but then when a person does it
uh they get slandered for it it's gonna come a point man you're gonna keep pushing men away you're gonna keep pushing men to uh to not express themselves
it's already been that way for years but now you've gotten us to be able to express ourselves
just a little bit and now you're telling these men to shut up every time they do yeah which i
think is whack and i think having two young boys uh well logan's 19 years old but another young
boy you tell them to express their feelings right because you don't want them to bottle that in
you don't want them
to keep that to themselves
and then one day explode
and not know what to happen
and end up beating up daddy
because you know
that's where Logan headed
Logan already bigging
in his pops
you know what I'm saying
like he's already
really the man of the house
so it's only a matter of time
you know if you don't
if you don't let Logan
express his feelings
he gonna body slam you
that's what you was
getting at right
no
oh okay
I was just shut shut up, man.
And that is your rumor report.
See, I'm trying to be sensitive
and all up and forward with you,
but you're going to,
Lucas going to beat you up.
Lucas going to body slam you.
Lucas going to throw you out the house.
Lucas, yo, shut up.
I didn't say throw him out the house,
but yeah, I can see him doing that too.
Oh my goodness.
I can see him tossing you.
Oh my goodness.
And I also want to say,
since we talking about it, man,
July 27th, actually the weekend of July 26th to the 28th in my birthplace of Charleston, South Carolina, they have the Low Country Mental Health Conference.
And I will be welcoming everybody to the Low Country Mental Health Conference on July 26th, July 26th to the 28th.

Health Conference.
I was having a conversation with Mayor Tecklenburg a couple of weeks ago when I was home, and
he just randomly mentioned it.

55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
