Hey, what's up y'all? This is Eric Andre. Well, I made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage. I tell gnarly stories and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing in all sorts of ways. Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life. I want to know what's the worst way they ever bombed or have they ever performed way too drunk or high or was there ever a time where they thought they were going to crush and they stunk it up.

Good morning, Morgan. Charleston to Columbia. Good morning DJ Andy, Charlotte May the guide and Lauren LaRosa, we getting girl. How are y'all feeling today? Less black and highly favored. How you feeling? Amazing. Amazing.

I'm feeling good. You know, les de la bontembre rouler, which means let the good times roll. It is Mardi Gras. It is carnival season, carnival day. So, you know, let's let's celebrate while we can because it's giving. It's not going to last long. So top of the headlines, let's get into it. The president will address a joint Congress tonight. The theme of the president's address to the joint session of

Congress will be the renewal of the American dream. A White House official told ABC News of the theme saying Trump will focus on his record so far the economy, border security and his plan for global peace. A White House statement says Trump has accomplished more in a month than any president has in four years, and that the joint address will be a must-see TV event. Of course, Trump's speech is set to start at 9 p.m. Eastern time. So some Democrats are inviting federal workers who have lost their job to the joint session. Many workers who have lost their job, as Elon Musk and Department of Government Efficiency have been calling off mass layoffs. Democratic Congressman Brad Schneider of Illinois said he while some Democrats are opting to skip the speech, others are going to be bringing those fired workers to show the American people

who have been hurt by Musk and Trump. Of course, the White House is accusing Democrats of exploiting the American people for political points. Now, elsewhere in presidential news, Trump is ordering a pause to all military aid to Ukraine. In a statement, a White House official said that Trump has been clear that he is focused on peace and that our partners need to be as well. It was he went on to say that the US is pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure that it is contributing a solution. Now Trump has continuously been critical

of Ukrainian President Zelensky in recent weeks. And of course we saw that confrontational meeting that happened in the Oval Office on Friday. Trump said the US stupidly gave away $350 billion to Ukraine. I'm a fact check that in just a second. He made the comments while speaking from the White House, adding President Biden gave away the funds so Ukraine could fight Russia and we got nothing in return.

So despite the rhetoric between himself, President and President Zelensky, their rare earths minimal mineral deal is still on the table. And as far as that $350 billion to Ukraine, it's more like $4 billion dollars that was appropriated by Congress, and this hasn't been a bipartisan effort. And some of those funds also went to other NATO members as well. So let's take a listen to those comments from President Trump regarding this deal on the table with Ukraine. Think of it. 350 billion. We could have rebuilt our U.S. Navy. So he gave it away as fast as the money could be gone. And what we're doing is getting that all back, and a lot more than that. And what we need is very important for this business that we're talking about here, with chips

and semiconductors and everything else. We need rare earths. And the deal we have is we have the finest rare earths. Yeah. Any thoughts on that guys? I mean, whether we're talking about the joint session of Congress tonight, which I'm sure President Trump will elaborate also on this rare earths deal. Oh, I can't wait to watch tonight because yes, Trump is must-see TV, especially when he's live. All right. Sadly, he's the greatest stand-up comic on the planet today.

The only other person I'm looking forward to seeing do stand up today is Andrew Shultz because his new special The Life comes out today. But yeah, I'm watching tonight. And I think it's a great idea to bring the federal workers. But I wouldn't bring just any federal workers. I would bring the federal workers who voted for Trump because they thought he'd be better for the economy. That's who I would bring.

You know, what's sad is when people act so surprised about the things he's doing about Ukraine and the tariffs that he's adding. People seem surprised, but these are all the things that he said he was going to do. Yeah, the tariffs start today. The tariffs on Canada and Mexico, right? 25% on Saturday night. Yes, it is tariff Tuesday. Tariffs are in effect. I will definitely get into that in the seven o'clock hour. But back on Ukraine, Zelensky, you know, he entered the chat and he had his remarks in regards to what happened on Friday. He says there will be diplomacy for peace after that intense exchange of words with

President Trump last week. In a video posted on his website, Zelensky said they are grateful. So he's being thankful. He said they are grateful for all the support the U.S. has given Ukraine in its war against Russia. He added that there is clear support for his country's cause from Europe and everyone agrees there needs to be peace. So we will, you know, continue to keep you posted. A very interesting fact that has also come out. The Kremlin, which is like the media for Russia, has said over the weekend that the Trump administration is changing

American policy, American foreign policy rather, to put it in line with Russia's vision. So yeah, let's continue to watch what's going on. They said that? Oh, yeah, the Kremlin said over the weekend that American the Trump administration is changing American foreign policy to put it in line with Russia's vision. So All right. Let's all we can do is see what the president has to say tonight Like you said must see TV and it starts at 9 p.m. Eastern and that's late. That was late too. That was on a weekend though.

Yeah that's late. Good morning everybody. Trump, Trump 80 right? 78 79 that's late. Nine o'clock. All right. And he got a mood he's up to about six o'clock. Jesus.

I gave him five bullet points of the work that I did. What were the bullet points if you don't mind us asking? I don't know, that's the top of my head but I conducted two meetings, two training sessions. I did a four-year request which is Freedom of Information Act.

Got you. And I want your listeners to know we can request information about any government official. All you have to do is send in a Freedom of Information Act so you can ask like how many meetings they had with this person or this company. It's really interesting. How do you feel about them asking y'all for that? I can't stand it. It's redundant. for this company is really interesting. How do you feel about them asking y'all for that? I can't stand it. It's redundant. We do reports to our direct supervisors and I'm hearing a lot of this being something that you're using like with AI to grab certain terms and determine if they need us or not.

Or if we can be replaced by AI. So it's really nerve wracking. Oh listen man, salute to all the federal workers out there. Hold your head. You know, the ones that are actually, you know, doing their jobs every day and keeping our country moving forward, salute to you. The ones that aren't,

y'all are the ones that actually need to be fired.

That's right. Go get your tickets and morning everybody. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the mess with Lauren LaRosa. Worldwide mess.

On the Breakfast Club. The coacheship with Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the mess. Talk to me. All righty, y'all. So Jay-Z and attorney Tony Busby back at it again. So a while back in December, Jay-Z had began to sue Tony Busby who was the attorney that

accused him of sexually assaulting the woman who claims she was 13 back in 2000 after VMA party with Diddy, right? Now moving forward, yesterday in Alabama, in a court in Alabama, Jay-Z went forward and filed something directly against the Jane Doe and her lawyer. This time it's not just attorney Busby did, it's also a man named David Fortney who was a second attorney. So Jay-Z is saying that the woman admitted to his reps that she made the whole story up. The lawsuit says that she made it up because she was pushed toward going forward

with the false story against Jay-Z by her attorneys. Now, Busby is saying that this has no legal merit and that the woman is still standing by her story. He's actually saying that this whole lawsuit that Jay-Z just filed in Alabama is basically another, in his terms, another failed attempt, and like a desperate attempt to respond to everything that is happening. He says this new case alleges the same claims as the other one they pieced together

and filed in Los Angeles. Like the other one in LA, this new case in Alabama has no legal merit. Sean Carter's investigators have repeatedly harassed, threatened, and something else. This poor woman for weeks trying to intimidate her and make her recant her story. She hasn't and she won't.

It says she has stated that she stands by her claims. These same group of investigators have been caught on tape offering to pay people to sue me and my firm after speaking with Jane Doe today. It's clear to me that the quotes attributed to her in this lawsuit are completely made up or they spoke to someone who isn't Jane Doe, right? How do you intimidate somebody that's anonymous?

And why is fighting for your reputation considered intimidating a person that you don't even know? This anonymous person can come and make claims about you and then when you speak out against it and say these claims aren't true and then even if you find out that this person is lying, why is that considered intimidation? You don't even know who the person is. And the person hasn't released their name, so I wouldn't consider it intimidation.

Now listen to this, okay? So then, after this, Jane Doe, on behalf of Jane Doe, her attorneys, go and they file a response, their own suit, not their own suit, I'm sorry, they file a response, and they're saying that she, in this response filed, she sticks by her story, and she's saying that she's intimidated and that she in this response filed, she sticks by her story and she's saying that she is intimidated and that she is terrified. How don't nobody even know who you are?

Well in this new legal doc that was obtained by TMZ, she says that Jay-Z was trying to bully her into saying the accusations are bogus. The woman is claiming that she was recently approached outside of her home and cornered by two people who told her they were investigators working for one of Jay's lawyers. She then claims that people tried to get her to sign an affidavit stating that the rape claims against Jay-Z were false, but she refused. The woman also claims that the alleged investigators asked her if Tony Busby saw her out as a client and offered her money to pursue the false claims against Jay-Z.

Both these allegations she has denied in these documents. And she claims the alleged confrontation led her to be intimidated and terrified wondering how they found her in her identity and because she had remained anonymous in all of the media reports and the legal proceedings. Oh, so she's saying that they found her. Yes, the woman even claims her parents were approached by two investigators asking similar questions

about Busby in the rape story. Now, again, this is the same woman from back in 2000, but this back and forth all went down yesterday. Didn't the same dad say he doesn't remember driving his daughter and he would remember that because the drive is such a long drive? 100%. But she is claiming that her parents were approached by the two investigators asking similar questions about Busby in the rape story.

But to your point Envy, back in that, that was the NBC interview that this accuser did. Back in that interview, she did, her father did say that that was five hours from the home. He would remember picking her up after that incident and he did not remember. So all of this back and forth, and I don't know where this ends because it seems like whoever Jay's team spoke to, this woman is completely saying something different when she gets with her attorneys. But I will say that in Jay's filing, they also did ask for her to remain anonymous or

whatever because of different like mental things that she's dealing with it. Whatever is happening behind the scenes here. I think that this to me, Hey, it's a Martinez. The news can feel like a lot on any given day, but you can't just ignore las noticias when important world changing events are happening. That is where the Up First podcast comes in. Every single morning in under 15 minutes, we take the news and boil it down to three essential stories you can keep up without feeling stressed out. Listen up first from NPR on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Hunter, host of Hunting for Answers on the Black Effect Podcast Network. Join me every weekday as I share bite-sized stories of missing and murdered black women and girls in America.

There are several ways we can all do better at protecting black women. My contribution is shining a light on our missing sisters and amplifying their disregarded stories.

They may be right above your car late one night as you cruise down the road or look like mysterious lights hovering above your home. Drones. Or are they? We used to work drone because it was comfortable to other people. One minute it was there and one minute it wasn't.

Oh that is beyond creepy. Do you feel like this drone was targeting you specifically? Yes, absolutely. Listen to Obscurum, Invasion of the Drones on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Me? Just an opinion. This woman doesn't seem competent to withstand anything legally and stories keep changing. And we saw that we heard her do that in NBC stories.

So I don't know why anyone wouldn't back off of this. The case has been dismissed already, right? Yeah. That case has been dismissed and it can't be brought back up. But now because Jay Z is suing them, you know what I mean? For everything that they took him through. Yeah. They're trying to fight back against that. So they yeah I don't think the case can be brought that up as far as assault or sexual assault But now she's saying something different right now. She's saying it's bullying and harassment, right? Yeah, but that's what I'm saying It's like it's like an ongoing like why doesn't this just end?

Defending yourself is not bullying or harassment and that's the executive order Trump needs to sign. If you find out a person lied about allegations like that, whether they are criminal or civil, they should have to face criminal charges. And attorneys who take those bogus cases should have to face some consequences as well. I'm with you 1,000%. If those attorneys know that those cases are BS

and know that that person is lying from the facts, from the evidence, yes, they should be brought up on charges too, because this is getting ridiculous. And I hate that when you when you're a person of status and you know you got money just because you're defending yourself and using all the resources that you have at your disposal to defend yourself. Now all of a sudden you a bully and you intimidate. Well, now you're attacking the victim.

Absolutely. After that, you got claimed for something that you didn't do. Yeah. And I will say, so again, attorney Busby is making these claims. Jay-Z has claimed before that these private investigators at Busby has said before also approached him They had nothing to do with him. He don't even he didn't even know who these people were his attorney said that so I Love the fact Jay keep fighting to clear his name Like I love that because most people that just stopped right there and was like after everybody else But he I loved the fact he's like nah This is not it yard and play with my name and I'm a clearer to the end and I'm out of that

You got the time, the money, he got the right one today, so. He got the money. Mm-hmm. He got the money. I just, it's just. That's what that boy had, he got the money. He got the money, most people would've let it go,

but he got the money. Yeah, it's just a lot. It's just a lot of back and forth. But yes, that is the first round of the mess. All right, thank you, Lauren LaRose. So now when we come back, we got front page news. And then Mike Epps will be joining us. So don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne

Naga. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren Larosa filling in for Jess and let's get back in some front page news. What's up Morgan? What's up? It is Tariff Tuesday Envy. But before I get into that, can we just real quick, let's say Les Bon Tom Rouleur, which means let the good times roll. Why do you say it's Tariff Tuesday, like it's $2 Tuesday. Like it's something we should be excited about. It's Tariff Tuesday. Let's go pay 25% extra on everything.

Everything. No, but for real, I mean, the people need to know. So, you know, let it be known. Before I get into the Tariff Tuesday thing, again, it is Mardi Gras and officials in New Orleans say security is being increased as celebrations of course are underway. This comes as one of five people who were shot over the weekend at a Mardi Gras parade in Franklin, was clinging to life at a hospital. Washington, Paris cops say that the other four have been treated and released. They say the suspected gunman is in custody and said in a statement that there could be more arrests made in that particular incident. Now, Mardi Gras parades, the popular Mardi Gras parades that have been famous could also be a washout this year.

Forecasters in the Big Easy are predicting some big storms that will roll in on Fat Tuesday Some parades have already been canceled two of the biggest is the Zulu and Rex parade They will roll on as earlier than normal although Officials are saying it's still possible that they can call those parades and the Jefferson Parish has canceled all of their Mardi Gras parades Due to threats of high wind. Meanwhile, Customs and Border Protection Officer Nathan Wilson is leading the security team and says that's a big challenge. Let's hear comments from him. Several blocks, lots of open spaces. So we strategically put teams at certain areas. So again, if there's a call for us, we can rapidly hit those situations. Yeah, so city officials say that security is at unprecedented levels. Of course, this follows the deadly ISIS inspired attack that happened in the French Quarter

on New Year's Day that killed 14 people. There is a heavy police presence along with significant federal support. Several items have been banned, including of course, private drones. And but be throwing is still allowed. So you know, show me something, Mr. No. Okay. Jesus Christ. allowed so you know show me something mr. No Anyways, okay, let's get into the tear

President Trump's 25 percent tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada are now in effect now Canada says it will impose retaliatory 25 percent tariffs on a hundred billion dollars of U.S. goods. Trump also imposed another 10 percent tariffs on Chinese imports in addition to 10 percent tariffs enacted last month. Now Beijing also responded with retaliatory tariffs on U.S. food and agricultural products. Economists predict American importers will pass along the cost of tariffs to consumers, sending prices higher and higher and higher at the grocery store and the car dealership. We stand to see it within a matter of just weeks. So Ontario's premier, which is like the governor of Ontario, says that Canada is set to retaliate

against the U.S. and plans to, the U.S.'s plans to impose on his country. And he also talked about how it's going to hurt our relationship. Let's hear more from Ontario Premier Doug Ford. I will stop shipments going into the US for nickel, it will shut down manufacturing, because 50% of the nickel you use is coming out of Ontario is going to go downhill faster than the American bobsled team. It's going to be an absolute disaster for both countries. We're your largest trading partner. If he wants to destroy our economy and our families, I will shut down the electricity going down to the US. And I heard that this comments went on to say he would do it with a smile. So he made those comments to NBC News

saying the tariffs will be an absolute disaster for both countries, of course, and he also threatened to shut down electricity that goes to the US. Now, again, 25% tariffs on Canadian, Mexican goods, 10% out of China. What are your guys' thoughts? America, if you thought the cost of goods was high before,

wait until tonight. You know what I'm saying? Like groceries are gonna go up, alcohol is gonna go up, gas prices are gonna go up, lumber is gonna go up, cars is gonna go up. Things like toys are gonna be going up for your kids, they were talking about all the stuff that people order, the clothes and all that's gonna be

shooting up in prices as well. Absolutely, absolutely. Canada is the largest exporter of meat to the United States and 77% of fresh vegetables are imported from Mexico. So yeah, you're gonna feel it at the grocery store, baby. Yep. And them syrup sandwiches is gonna get more expensive too. And you tequila drinkers? You tequila drinkers? Are you crazy? Tequila and beer. Yep. It's me. It's me. Okay. As if that wasn't bad enough, guys, Senate Democrats are calling out Elon Musk for saying that Social Security is the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time. Yes. Elon Musk said

Social Security is the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time. Now, this comes at a time where Musk and Doge are set to cut 7,000 employees from the Social Security Administration this coming Friday. Now, Social Security does pay more in benefits compared to the returns that it gains on taxes. I was on Capitol Hill yesterday and Chuck Schumer spoke more about this situation. It seems like it is just coming out. It seems like we're in the beginning stages of it. So I've got my eyes on it for you.

But here's what Chuck Schumer had to say in regards to this, what's happening. So now we know that something we Senate Democrats have feared for a long time is coming true. Social Security is under attack and at risk. You don't need to scratch your head and wonder what's going on when you see they're decimating the offices and the staff. And you don't need to ponder what might happen next when Trump and Musk say that the tens of millions of seniors and families and children who depend on these benefits are a part of a scam. It's insulting to them.

Chuck Schumer is 90 years old and he doesn't even sound excited when speaking about social security. Okay, Chuck, you are the elderly. That is your time to shine, okay? Because social security is not a Ponzi scheme. It's how most Americans survive during retirement or disabilities. You know, Social Security has prevented so many old people from falling into poverty. What are they talking about?

This is why rich people got to stay out of poor people's business. He's a source close. He needs to be more excited. Well, there you have that. And just bringing things really quickly home to, wrapping things up, bringing things home to you guys in New York, y'all heard about what happened with the FBI field office, right? So the head of the FBI New York's field office was forced out yesterday, a month after he pushed back against Trump administration's purge against agents

who worked on the January 6th cases. Now, Assistant Director in charge of the FBI's New York field office, James Denehy, retired from the Bureau on Monday, telling his colleagues he was forced out in his announcement email. It was Dennehy's email in February that led to it. He moaned, excuse me, he demands to turn over

the names of agents who worked on Capitol riot cases, calling it a battle, and writing, time for me to dig in. Reports say Dennehy did delay reporting that info and that people within the bureau say that doing so prevented a mass firing. So maybe he was able to save others, but that meant he may, you know, he was on the chopping block for that. But we'll continue to keep you posted on what is happening out here in the streets. That's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood. Follow me on social at Morgan Media for more news coverage follow at black information network

Download the free iHeart radio app and visit us at BIN news.com. Thank you. All right All right Congratulations, I got a nine-year-old at the house. Congratulations. I love you., now when we come back, comedian Mike Epps will be joining us. So don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. We got a special guest in the building. A legend, god damn it. The brother, Mike Epps. I appreciate that. I'm serious, Mike.

I don't want them introducing you no more They ain't putting legend on your mother name. Well, we got the How old you gotta get to be a legend? Yeah, you gotta be in the yeah, I'm getting there I don't think it's about age I think it's about what you've done in the game what you've done. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks, man I appreciate appreciate this, you know compliment and Mike Epps He always supported us early on. He actually did our first skit with the Breakfast Club.

Remember that skit? I did. The first skit was with you, and you did that for us. That's big. And he used to put money in my pocket because you used to do the April Fool's comedy game in New York. You remember that?

Yeah. Yeah. April Fool's at the garden. He used to always get me to host it at the garden. Yeah, man. So yeah, man. And it feel good to be able to, you know what I mean, turn on the young comics and put them on.

Because I was once one at one time. I mean, I used to be standing on the stage trying to get on, open up for Steve Harvey and D.L. Hughley. So. They used to hate on you? No. OK. No, no, no, no, no.

They never hated on me. But you could tell, though, you know, when you're an older comic or you're an older artist and somebody new come on, you know, it takes time for them to be like, okay, this dude is cool. You know, or I can work with him. You know, you don't know how a person gonna turn out. So, yeah.

I shouldn't even have said hate, because sometimes I think that people don't realize how much of a fraternity comedy is, and they wanna see you earn your dues before they You know they do they share stage with you. That's right. Yeah, but nowadays is different man You know artists are getting they just do a little quicker than we did. We had to really work for that We had to go hit them stages and and now they got the social media thing Which is good and bad because you're getting, premature, of you working for it.

So, it can be tricky. Do you respect that, or you feel like they should get their dues first, to hit them clubs? Well, I respect the fact that they, it's still a hustle. I mean, to be able to be on the internet, I still ain't figured that shit out. I still ain't figured out how to really get the money off the internet. Like these young, like they on Snapchat and all this.

I really haven't figured it out. But I respect that because that's the new hustle. But like I said, when it's time for you to get an opportunity and show and prove you ain't really been in the gym. It's kind of like you got muscles, but they didn't come from the gym. Now, do you like going out on tour with so many comedians? Well, you know what envy I I'm hosting this tour. So these are all young comics that's coming up Do all am do volume. Yeah

He didn't start with me though, no he didn't he's young to me Yeah, because he you know, he came up after me But for the most part all of them are young comics that's trying to me because he came up after me. But for the most part, all of them are young comics that's trying to get to the next level, which is film and television and whatever that is. But yeah, it's cool, man. I'm secure with myself and I'm secure with my comedy act. I'll go on tour with anybody.

I think me and Jess were talking about this before, and I was telling her the way that even with Martin, he brings her on his different stages. I think that two-way street that Jess were talking about this before and I was telling her like the way that like even with Martin, he brings her on his like different stages. I think that two way street that you're talking about is really important because they're teaching you while you're teaching them. Especially because like I feel like sometimes

comedians who come up the way you come up, when they shut out like the Jess Hilarious's, the Desi Banks or whatever, you get so behind the times that you, it just doesn't come off well a lot of times and I think for you guys and what you do, you're trying to figure out social media. If it doesn't come off well, then fans kind of start to look at you a little differently. You got to battle so many different things because-

There you go. Yeah, it's what's here right now. So the fact that you're getting that is important. Because I look like an old on Instagram. Like, you mean on my- You can't get around that because you're old. Who are you talking to? First of all, you brought up the-

I'm just kidding. I am though. No, but listen, when you said Duval wasn't young, I love that you brought up the age. And you can't get around that because you're old. Who are you talking to? I'm just kidding. I am though. No, but listen, when you said Duval wasn't young, I looked it up. I thought he was way younger. He's 47.

You thought Duval was younger? I thought Duval was like, not too, I thought he was like maybe 40. He gives young energy. But I'm saying, I just think that it's dope to see people embracing it because they be hating. A lot of the old heads be hating and it's crazy Because what a jazz. You throwing that old head around that word around a lot

What's wrong with that? Why are people upset about being called older? That's a gift to age and to have what you have. We not it's just how you say It's how you say it. Well I don't mean it in no way what I'm saying to you is is that No I know what you mean. Yeah I think it's fire to see you doing it. Yeah, because a lot of people don't Yeah a lot of older guys they. And you're a lot about embracing it. Yeah, a lot of other guys, they don't know how to, you know, they really don't know how to embrace that, man. But like I said, man, that's what we supposed to do.

We gotta keep on handing it down to each other because I'm gonna be in a position one day, I'm gonna need one of the young dudes to put me in it. That's what Red Fox and Eddie Murphy put Red Fox in. He looked out for Red Fox. Gave him money. Got him out of taxes. Hell yeah. Now let's get messy. What you want to ask me? Oh, how you not got something? Kevin Hart signed on to be the entertainer of the Paces and Fever. You are from Indiana,

super famous from Indiana, and built the whole community in Indiana. How did that make you feel that they didn't call you for that? Well, you know what, I thought about it. I was the ambassador for the men's All-Star in Indiana, this past All-Star. Kev should have called me if he was in Indianapolis, because I definitely called him when I was in Philly, but he didn't answer the phone. I wanted to call him and say, hey, man,

I'm downtown at the Eagles game. Because I was. We had a show in Philly, and I was calling him to tell him, man, I'm downtown at the Eagles game. Cause I was, we had a show in Philly and I was calling them to tell them, man, I'm downtown Philly, boy, they going crazy at the parade. But you know, everybody got their different things about how they feel, man.

You know, who goes to Indiana? I'm still trying to figure out who the f*** wanna go there and do something in Indiana other than myself. I'm the only fan they got outside of what their fans are in that city. You know, hey man, it's politics. And then a lot of times people that are not in a business, like people are not in comedy, people are not in the rap game, they're run entities, they don't know.

They think me and Kevin sitting in the backyard drinking iced tea together. You know what I'm saying? So you really can't get upset about it, but it's enough for everybody, man. You know what I'm saying? Kev, he put on enough young comics and people, so I didn't get slighted about that, man.

It's cool. So y'all talking, though, the fact that you caught him when he was in Philly. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Me and Kevin talk man. And again man, everything I do now, I put an age on it, you know what I mean? So I think about it and I'm like,

nope, you too old, nope, you too old, nope, you too old, too old to talk, too old to be broke, I'm too old for all of that. You know what I mean? You just get to a point in your age where you just, hey man, I'm just trying to give what I can get out of it and you know. Knowing Cav though, I know he's gonna reach out for you to do something when he put that together. Oh yeah, well that's what I'm saying. I was just on the phone with him telling him that that's what we gotta do. The white boys do it.

You already took a look up all them white boys be together doing movies and television together. Why we can't do it That's right. I got in the business through ice cube I didn't get in the business through and white people like who they like and I'm not you know I'm not really like that dude that they like Because you can't rub on my head and pat me on the ass and all I don't play none of it So and I think they figured that out. Okay, this is we can't do that with not gonna do it with them So, you know, hey, but you've had a great career. I mean the upshars is killing what they only with fifth season This season season

Swear by that show they love appreciate it and that came from my idea that came from an idea That's about my hometown and loosely based on my life, you know, so I'm I can't complain. I'm grateful I'm happy. I can't complain I'm grateful I'm happy I ain't gonna be for nobody I'm just trying to continue to live on do what I do we got more with Mike Epps when we come back it's the Breakfast Club good morning morning everybody is DJ NG Chesolaria Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking it with Mike Epps now Mike Epps how many kids do you have?

You ain't that kind of guy, but you're not either Okay, she has a nap time play what you talking about but back in the day Way on the smoke went just focus over here. I'm trying to keep you in good graces. Yes. Yes, so don't lean into what he's doing right now. You can talk about your old days, they're my old days. Yeah, they're old days. Slanging it like a pistol. Slanging it, man. But you know what though,

if you can survive anything and be there to talk about it, it's cash money. That's right. I don't care what it is. If you survived it, you're standing there talking about it, it's cash money. That's right. I agree. I don't care what it is. If you survived it, you standing there talking about it, it's cash money. That's why we listen to Magic Johnson so heavy now.

That's right. That's right. That man lived a life. Magic Johnson? Yeah. Yeah. What? And you'll forget sometimes.

You'll forget that he got HIV. Yeah. You see what I'm saying? Some of the women probably do too. They probably like, hey, Magic. They not forgetting that. Y'all are crazy. Well, it's happening.

Now, you got a young child too. So how is being an old head, cause we all old heads, raising that young child? Man, I love it. They're giving me life. I got a son four years old and I got a daughter five and they give me life. And I ain't no old type dude. I can get up and run right now, fast as I want to and do whatever I want to do so. Why you looking at me when you said that? You looked at me when you said that.

What, which part? That you're not no old dude, no old type dude. Cause you call me old already. I meant it by like iconic legend aging. What you realize? Like you have it, you know what I mean? Like you got the, I didn't mean it like. But think about it though, you only, you 54, right?

You had to come out with the apology after sitting on AutoSmoke and you talked about learning how to finally get to- AutoSmoke.

His wife. Yeah, when you sat down on all the smoke podcasts with Matt Barnes. What did I say? You said that you wanted to get to a point where you were treating women 100% right or something like that. And I think people took it the wrong way

because you've been with your wife for a while. I saw y'all at the NAACP Image Awards, looked amazing. But does that even come back up in conversation in your relationship? Or how does she handle you being able to joke like you just did About things now that that has happened. No, my wife's a grown-ass woman. She's the truth She don't pay attention to none of that petty not petty. She ain't she ain't no little girl So yeah, she can decipher when I'm saying something that I might not have meant the right way or whatever

She know when I'm talking when I'm you know, know me. So I didn't say nothing to really offend nobody, you know, but it is the truth. It takes men a long time to get their together. That's right. And every woman that's with a man has got to be a little bit more patient than we are with them. Cause it takes a while, it takes a while for a man to,

you know, get us together. I mean, we got, we fighting up against so much temptation, it's like damn, it's like woo, you gotta be a certain kind of guy to really survive and navigate through the world. Sean, we were just talking about Whoopi Goldberg the other day. Is that who you want?

I had to give her mother props as well. Her mother did a great job with her. My daughter is running around NYU and that's the same place I ran around doing comedy at in the village. I used to

sit in that Washington Park and with no money and watch people and people watching and now my daughter's running around that same area in college. So man I'm grateful and I just thank God that I was able to raise a child to be able to go get an education. That's amazing, that's what it's about. It is. You say you was in special ed? Hell yeah.

That's a man

We were having girl talk until you came in here Continue morning everybody we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the mess with Lauren La Rosa On the Breakfast Club for Lauren La Rosa. On the Breakfast Club, the coaches with Lauren Lauren La Rosa. Why are you looking at me like that? Charlamagne? You are good. And how you looked at our goal. I just did my makeup sitting right here. Okay, I was confused. I was like, who is this person? Don't do me. Because the fresh face was given and it was glowing, by God. But let's focus

on the mess instead of your messy. So the other day here we were talking about, we were showing some love to Ms. Angie Stone. I mentioned that I saw online the biopic that she mentioned in here was still in development. Let's take a listen to when she was here back in 2019 talking about the biopic. Has any of the new York artists thanked you? City girls ain't never thanked y'all? No. They don't know.

But, but, but I promise you they will know because I'm actually getting ready to do, we're working on a biopic. Ralph Farquhar is who I'm working with, who did Hollywood Husbands on the, on the biopic and we're going to have to cross all these lanes. Yes. and we're gonna have to cross all these lanes. Yes, so I reached out to her rep, Ms. Deborah Champagne, wanting to know, because it's still listed as in development on IMDB, which is for people who don't know, it'll tell you like where shows are as far as production. I said, hey, you know, what's going on?

Did this move forward? Where did, you know, where did it leave off? Can we look to see something? And she says that the NG Stone biopic has not been finished. It is still in the development stage. At this moment, all that they can say is that in 2021 Angie Stone was working with literary writers who work for an agency out of London to publish her biopic in book form. But due to schedules, the status of the book was placed on hold to revisit at a later time.

But she does insist that the story does need to be told so this is something that they are going to definitely try and figure out now but as of right now that's where it left off. It's a book form now and shit began it but it's on hold right now. I wonder if the book was done? How far along they were? I did ask that but she couldn't get into it right now. She just told me that they are going to revisit it soon because it's important for Angie Stone's story to be told. Absolutely. Rest in peace Angie Stone. 803 legend man. Columbia Saw Kinlin a legend right there. Ne-Yo Soul icon. Hip-Hop icon. Well Ne-Yo Soul Pioneer, Hip-Hop Pioneer, R&B

icon. Yeah and they're also working to put together a really great memorial service for her and we'll keep you guys updated on like what that will be and when it'll happen and all that stuff as well. And don't y'all be going to Angie Memorial going up there singing they can't sing now. Y'all pick the right people to go up there and sing the song. For real I hate when they do that. Black it, it be us. When somebody that can sing they ass off and then they bring somebody up there that can't

sing y'all know Angie would have wanted somebody up there that can sing now. I'm sure they can get the hang together. Get the right singers. They'll get it. Okay. Well, hopefully they will. Now moving on to other news Lamont Roach and Jervontae Tank Davis, they fought at the Barclay over the weekend.

It was a draw. Some people think Lamont Roach should have won the fight. Others are saying, no, the draw was fair. At this point, Yardham bullied Jervontae Tank Davis into announcing into announcing a tentative time for a rematch. So now, Jervonta Tank Davis is saying that there will likely be a rematch of some sort at the end of May. The rematch can be soon too, dot dot dot, like end of May, he tweeted. Now I say that you guys have bullied him into that because the insults were flying online

after this fight, especially yesterday. And you'll remember in the beginning after the fight, he said, let's take a listen. Do you want that rematch next? And if so, how likely it is that we're you know, where to see that fight happen again this year? I'm not sure, bro. Hopefully we could get it before. No, it probably won't be this year.

Is that the one you want next? That's the yeah, it's definitely the one I want next but it's not gonna be next Yeah, so originally that was right after the fight. He said nah, I'm not focused on that right now But now it's like okay He's setting a date or at least a month for people to look forward to so what was happening online yesterday was Lamont Roach has shared a video of Adrian Bronner after his Pacquiao fight declaring that he won the fight and Roach Adrian Bronner after his Pacquiao fight declaring that he won the fight and Roach had added the caption facts and then Gervonta allegedly responded that basically Lamont Roach should be happy that it didn't get knocked out.

He said his dad was jumping up and down in the corner. We all made it to the 12th round but the tweet was deleted. So then Lamont Roach responded back to that tweet and he said said, y'all, it was a lot of back and forth. He responded back to that tweet and he said, he was never worried about that. I guess talking about getting knocked down. Truth be told, he says Tank hits like the B word and that whoever was jumping up and down, oh, his dad was jumping up and down because basically he was going off. So what you talking about? So then Tank said, or Javermont Tink Davis said and say no more I'm pushing for the rematch. Lamont Roach responded to him and made it clear he said what you mean you pushing my contract already is signed and set for an immediate rematch because you put that in there just in case you lost.

Only reason we don't fight we didn't fight is because you're scared. And that's the one everybody should be focusing on they should be focusing on that if there's already if there already was a rematch clause and Lamont is already signed up for the rematch, you know, yeah, there's be, there would be no reason for Tank not to want to do the rematch. ASAP. They gotta do the rematch. Now I did hear that this is just a rumor that Tank and Jake Paul was going to line up to fight. So that might have been what Tank had planned next. Yeah, but I feel like the minute that this fight happened and was called the way that it was called, I'm tank I'm instantly like nah we got to run that back. You should. This don't look good we gotta run that back and that's not what he did instantly and now it's changing so it's like. But if tank was supposed to fight Jake Paul that's a way bigger payday and he might be talking about the bigger payday because he keeps talking retiring. He keeps talking about one more year and I'm not here. But is the fight with Jake Paul is big now? No, I think people want to see this now.

It's like a left turn. Jake Paul and Jake Paul. I think it's still be big. Not as big as it would have been. No, it would have been bigger, but I think he needs to do that rematch. I think he needs to do the rematch with Roach and they need to do it in the DMV. That would be amazing. Another issue with this is that the knee.

People are arguing that that should have been a knockout or what. So now that controversial non-call is under review by the New York State Athletic Commission. And they said in a statement, a technical issue may have prevented the commission from acting during the fight at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. That's according to their statement. Because it ended in a draw. Yeah, so this incident occurred in the ninth round when John remember when Davis,ervonta dropped to the knee and then headed back to his corner. The referee Steve Willis started a mandatory 10 count before allowing Davis to resume fighting without penalty after Davis got his eyes white with the towel. He and then you guys remember,

Tango also later said that he took the knee and headed to his corner because something was in his eyes. So basically they're going to be reviewing this. That should have been a knockdown. I never trust that referee because I don't like his eyes. His eyes are like a fish. His eyes are on the sides of his head. You know how I, his eyes are on the sides of his head. I never liked his eyes. I don't trust. I never liked that ref. What's that ref's name? I can't remember his name right now. I bet if you Google referee with crazy eyes, it'll be here. Referee Steve Willis.

Steve Willis. Yeah. I never liked Steve Willis. But let me ask you a question. If you were Roach, would you want that win? Or would you say let's keep a draw and fight again? Because I wouldn't want that one if I was Roach. Keep a draw and fight again. I would keep a draw and fight again. Yeah. Please, give me the win. Let me fight against anyway. Because it'd be too much controversy. It'd be an ass-sick around that win.

No it wouldn't. Yes it would. No it wouldn't. We all saw the fight. That should have been called a knockdown. Because it wasn't a real knockdown. If it was a real knockdown, then I get it. He would want that fight again. Take that draw and give me that fight again. I wanna add more to their statement because it makes it make more sense.

So basically there was the commission's request to replay video of what happened when the knee was taken. And then there was a technical issue that made it where they couldn't do the replay, I guess, in the allotted time for review. You take a knee in a fight, you get deducted points. That's been the rule since the beginning of time. That's what it should have been. Well. That was a clear knee. We'll see what happens as we wrap up. And now this fight

is ranked as the highest grossing event ever at the Blair Clay Center. Really? Yeah. All right well congratulations. Three in a match. Let's go. The second highest. The second highest? Yes. All right well that was the mess with Lola Rosa. Charlamagne who giving that down to? Christopher Newton. He's a Florida man. He needs to was the mess with Lola Rosa. Charlamagne who you giving that donkey to? Christopher Newton he's a Florida man he needs to come to the front of the congregation. We would like to have a word with him I'm telling y'all there's a whole group of people out here who think that crime is normal we'll discuss. Alright we'll get to that next it's the Breakfast Club good morning.

You're checking out the Breakfast Club. Your execution on the donkey of the day is something to behold. They gave me donkey of the day and something to behold. You need a read? They gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it. You need to know. Well you need to tell them. I am. You have the voice. Tell them. It's time for donkey of the day.

It's a read but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake ass Charlemagne. You're the only one Charlemagne is all. Damn Charlemagne, who you give a donkey of the day to now? A donkey of the day for Tuesday, March 4th goes to a Florida man named Christopher Newton. Now what does your Uncle Charla always say about the great state of Florida? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida and today is no exception. I have a theory that people don't know right from wrong anymore because of social media.

Let me explain. You can go on social media and literally witness any criminal activity you want and we end up seeing these activities so much that some people probably don't even know what they are witnessing is criminal. Okay? It's criminal when you watch people get punched in the face on social media. Alright? It's criminal when you see folks flashing illegal guns on social media. It's criminal when you see people flashing illegal guns on social media. It's criminal when you see people showing off drugs they are using and selling. Street racing, reckless

driving, drifting, animal abuse. It's so many crimes we witness on social media but because we don't see the consequences of them displaying this criminal behavior as often as we should, a lot of people think this stuff is normal. Well, in the words of the honorable minister Louis Farrakhan, just because something has become the norm doesn't mean it's normal and committing crime is never gonna be normal and just because you commit crimes and act like it's everyday you know regular smegla activities does not make what you doing not a crime okay. Christopher Newton didn't get that memo though because he's out here moving like

the crimes he's committing here moving like the crimes He's committing are normal according to Fox 13 Tampa Bay Christopher Newsome Or Christopher Newton has been arrested on drug charges after deputies say he left a baggie of cocaine in a house He was being trespassed from now. I have never heard the phrase. He was being trespassed from I've heard the phrase He was trespassing, but I'm also not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary so maybe that's the proper way to reference that I don't know but this is the Florida education system we are talking about but according to Fox 13 Tampa Bay okay a Florida man was arrested on drug charges after deputies say he left a

baggie of cocaine in a home he was trespassed from. Now what had happened was Christopher Newsome texted the homeowner who just asked him to leave about a bag of cocaine left on the nightstand. Okay? And he sent that text while deputies were at the house. Sidebar, the sooner you realize people be on cocaine, the less you take things personally.

Back to the story. Now, according to the Holmes County Sheriff's Office deputies, they responded to a call on Friday about having Christopher Newton removed from a home he was trespassing in. And while on the scene, Christopher texted the homeowner saying he left a baggie of booger sugar on the nightstand. Deputies got consent to search the room where Christopher had been staying and found a plastic bag of that happy dust, that Nostradandruff.

So Christopher was arrested and charged with possession of cocaine. Now listen to me, it's unclear how long Christopher stayed in this house before he was asked to be removed for trespassing, but clearly he was either comfortable, high, or dumb enough to think he shared some type of relationship with this person and say, hey, I left my Bolivian marching powder on the nightstand. Now I have another hypothetical. Whoever called the police on Christopher was either sniffing with him or fed up that he kept sniffing and wouldn't stop.

When they got this text from Christopher, they got paranoid because they thought the cops would find the cocaine and they would go to jail for it. So they showed the police Christopher's texts to save their own ass. The moral of the story is this. A crime is a crime because we condemn it and there are not a lot of crimes being condemned enough in our society so folks don't even know they are crimes. Possession of cocaine is indeed a crime and to text somebody like you left your wallet when it's a bag of cocaine lets me know that there are people walking amongst us who don't know

That sniffing cocaine is actually a crime envy. I'm sure you left your laptop or something at somebody's house before right laptop. Yeah I thought I was gonna learn something Laptop. Yes, what'd you thought I said? He's gonna say he left his cocaine. Yeah, I was like this. I said stop I heard you stop He's gonna say he left his cocaine. Yeah, I was like this. I said stop Okay, Lauren, I'm sure you've left the wig or something on somebody's nightstand but a bag of cocaine You wouldn't just text I left my cocaine on the nightstand. You can say yo, I left my laptop over there You can text that you can text I left my wig over there. But to say I You know, you left your cocaine. That's not something you just say, hey, I left that, I'm coming back to get it, okay? But if I had left cocaine at somebody's house,

I wouldn't text somebody and say, hey, I left cocaine at your house. I would just say, yo, I just left something, I'm coming back to get it. That's how we talk because we were raised in an era where we knew we were committing crimes. We knew right from wrong, but we were trying to not get caught.

Either this generation don't know, don't show show I don't give a damn about being arrested for the blatant crimes they are committing please give Christopher Newton the biggest he-how make sure this man last name it is new I kept saying Newton new some no all types of stuff for the record I think it's a worse crime to leave your wig somewhere. Then you're okay. How many times have you done it never? You never left your wig at somebody else. No, why would I just leave my weight? Like I'm just leaving with the braids like what is it the brains? Yes, I can see you doing Never thinking you can just walk out the house without a wiggle. I mean I am beautiful. Thank you

But no, I would never leave my wig just randomly first of all they cost a lot of money like these are not cheap. Yo wigs? Yes. Why you say yo wigs like that? You gotta pay to get them made. Okay. Stop playing with me. I meant to ask like now that Trump is putting the tariffs on like China stuff like that how does that affect the wig? We gonna build. We're gonna build up the closet All the girls are gonna have you know, I mean fair has been sitting and waiting mahogany is here now This is mahogany brown. So we're gonna build up a few more girlies so that way I can rotate and I'll be good Okay. No congratulations To me or the guy who got it came back

All right, well, thank you for that donkey today. Now when we come back, little Duval will be joining us. We're gonna kick it with Duval. You know, he's on the We The Ones Comedy Tour, and we're gonna talk to him next. All right? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.

Pause, pause, pause, pause, pause. I be thinking about Lil Duvall a lot, right? Uh-huh. Why you gotta pause that if it ain't gay? Because I know how you think automatically. No, that's the thing. Yes. You fly a lot. Uh-huh.

And with everything that's been going on with all these airlines and airports, what's your feeling when it comes to flying? Because you fly yourself. I feel like the same way y'all feel when y'all see a car accident and y'all pass right by. That's how I feel about with the planes. I've been flying for a while now,

so and you've been flying for a while, so you're used to it, it's just now it's the main topic now, so y'all scared, so it's the same thing to me. But you know what's funny, those private flights like yours are the ones that usually crash the most more than anything. Jesus!

They do more in the commercial, way more in the commercial flight, absolutely. Maybe so, but it's usually the pilot error. It's usually just like the car accidents. Usually the car driver. But the reason I bought that up because if you was going to be scared, you'd have been scared a long time ago. Yeah, yeah.

I mean, I was scared at first because I was like, y'all ain't know no better. And I bought the first plane I could get. And as soon as I landed, that cut off. So it just cut off. The engine cut off as soon as I landed. My first plane, as soon as I landed, that cut off at PNK. You can't jump can't jump into what you gotta get to without the way no I landed so I'm alive

you know my first plane cut off so I learned how I learned about planes and everything just by getting going ahead first so now I'm here to teach our own people how many planes you don't have so far I got three planes now what kind I got a Cessna Golden Eagle, I got a Baron Beechcraft, and I got a seaplane that you land on water. Okay. I think the best thing people can learn about Duval is that everything is subjective.

Like, you know, whatever you want your life to be, and you live that life, if that's making you happy, that's it. Yeah, that's pretty much what it is, man. I'm one of the few that was able to do what I want to do and be successful at it You know I'm saying we created our own Hey, it's a Martinez the news can feel like a lot on any given day But you can't just ignore las noticias when important world-changing events are happening

It's true, you know what I'm saying? It's true. We it wasn't nobody doing skits and all that besides remember that skit We did in the mall with that boy singing and we just cut him off and it went viral before they was calling him viral We just do all type of skit. You know what I'm saying? So just to see how he evolved now it's dope. The state of the union. Yeah, we was the first podcast. I remember one time I was in New York from South Carolina and I texted Jeece Finn. Jeece Finn told me to come to the radio station, come here before I even got the job. And when I walked in he said, man, just like Cadillac Jack was there, he said, man, my boss been watching you and Duval Hood, state of the union all day.

So just to see how content and all that evolved now, it's beautiful. It's a whole lane that wasn't there for stand up. You know what I'm saying? Like now we call comedians just people that do social content. When I first came up, they used to hate on all this. That's why I call myself the, I'm really one of the real, the oldest young. She thought you was way younger.

Yeah, I thought you were way younger. You thought I was way younger? Yeah, I thought you were way younger. You thought I was way younger? Yeah, I thought you were probably like 40, 41. Nah, I'm 48. I'll be 48 in 47. I'll be 48 in 47. I mean that's because I've been around so long. You've been seeing me and it's consistency. That's why I try to teach these young comedians.

It's not all that stuff cool but just stand there and stand consistent. You're going to be right here. I'm leaving proof. If you watch me, I'm the blueprint. I want to go back to one more question with the planes. Okay. Does the wind change at all? Cause it seems like the weather got worse. That's the scariest part.

Recently. That's the scariest part. You can control everything else, but that wind and the weather, you never know. So that's really what I pay attention to everything. If I see that red up there on my app, I ain't flying. With the red mean. The red mean that's real bad weather. You got green, yellow, then red. I fly in the green because that's just rain. Yellow I ain't

flying. What does yellow mean? Yellow is still you're gonna be bumping and jumping and actually I've been having way more turbulence in big planes than my plane because I don't fly in some s*** you know what I saying? But for the most part, it ain't that bad. Because the wind's stronger than it used to be when we was growing up. And it's safer, it's way more room up there. I ain't finna run into nothing. And like, you know how you seen like,

what them planes collided? You could see it, you could see them planes, and you got air traffic control. That's what I was saying, the helicopter should have seen a big ass plane. I think he just got so used to it. Like you get comfortable after a while. So you just be flying and you normalize it

and then you forget. I was told that that's a normal route that the helicopter takes, even though that was a trainee. That is like very normal. Same thing with COVID with the helicopter. I think he did that route so much, he used to it. Like, say if I'm flying in the rain, I'm used to flying in the rain.

So if something happened, it'd be surprising to me too. You know what I'm saying? So it's just like anything random, just like your car. We gonna get used to it, just like Deft. We got used to it after a while and it's normal. I don't wanna get used to planes crashing. You fly- We got used to car crashes.

There's way more car crashes out here. It's normal, it's new to us. Just like everything. Do you fly the planes is what you're saying? I got a pilot. I got a pilot on salary, but he can fly. I can fly. I just don't fly that much now. I heard you rank the emergencies and I'm like, uh, uh, just an able body passenger doesn't

know the colors of the emergency. I used to be a flight attendant. So when I heard you rank the colors, I'm like, wait, not so you do fly the plane. Yeah, I know what I'm doing. Okay. I know what I'm doing. Okay. I know what I'm doing. Actually and the main reason I do this is just because I learned that people don't listen they follow. So when you do something they follow. I'm living proof that I have this sh** y'all see on social media they follow me. Especially with the traveling and all that. So when you understand it you just do sh** to help us as a community and that's what I do

whatever I do. I look at sh** and I be like what do we need in the game? Hmm? We need more pilots. We need more fly We need them to understand. Oh, what's the best way to do it become that how you are what you see? So you see me it makes like we have in this conversation He's been calling me since he still ain't got a plane yet I don't know but he don't fly enough so you probably don't need it But if you fly enough you you probably want to have you ever had a landing emergency and if so like what rank? They laughing back there. I told you he know about it.

I've had a red emergency. I almost crashed. He almost crashed one time like it was one night man the whole instrument panel went out that's where all the stuff at. It went out and once that go out you ain't got no communication or nothing we couldn't talk to air traffic control or nothing. And not only that, the windows froze up like a refrigerator. So we just flying like in an ice can just floating, just flying.

And just flying and flying. So you by yourself? No, me and the pilot. Just you and the pilot? Me and my pilot. We just flying. And they was in there too asleep though. They ain't know what was going on.

They were back in the back asleep. So we flying and flying and flying so he was like should we turn around now I know we up north and it's colder and you know you can on the wings you can get the wings get frozen and that's how you stall so he was like should we turn around so in my mind I'm like we should keep going down south it's warmer it's warmer but it was the middle of the night so it ain't gonna get warmer no time soon. But I'm like we get lower and so we got lower. The only thing we had was the compass. We went by the compass, kept going lower and called on the regular phone, got to where we can get on reception, lower enough to where we could talk on the regular phone. And then we landed. And then once

we landed, the next day that's when COVID, that's when we found out COVID died. It was the same. The same night. It was the same night, you know what I'm saying? So that was one of my scariest moments. I had a couple scary moments, but that was the scary one where I was like, oh, this might be it. I asked you this when you told me, but what was you thinking when you was in that moment?

I was like, damn, this time I'm gonna go. I don't know, it's just like, You can't describe it, because nothing you can do. I almost had near-death experiences a couple times, especially when I got hit by that car. I don't get scared it's just like, it's... You can't describe it, there's nothing you can do. I've almost had near-death experiences a couple times, especially when I got hit by that car. I don't get scared in those types of situations, because I understand we going to die,

but at the same time, I just, I kind of knew I wasn't. I wasn't tripping, you know what I'm saying? I wasn't tripping, but my pilot was tripping more than me. You know what I'm saying? He hugged me, was crying and everything, but... No, man. But you don't know, I mean, it's literally, like when you're in that situation it's nothing you can do

Like what are you gonna do? Jump out the plane? Nah, he can't do it at that point Alright we got more with Lil Duval when we come back It's the Breakfast Club, good morning Morning everybody it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy We are the Breakfast Club Lawnlorosa filling in for Jess, we're still kicking it with Lil Duval Music

Yeah, well, so she was when, this is not to make this dark, it's a good moment. When my mom was going through her cancer battle, she would play that song all the time when she was having a bad day and it would like lift her. She loves that and Ludacris' move, Get Out The Way.

That song there was a blessing used from God through me. It ain't got nothing to do with me. It's all through blessing just to see how it's changed people are still changing people and still affect powerful. Tell me about the Kool-Aid story when Kool-Aid was passing. What about it? And you played it for him. Oh yeah when he died like right before he died he had you know they had a thing in their mouth and he was about to pull it out like he was about to pull it out like don't do that in front of me. But he I was like you want me to play something he wanted me to play lovely day and smile and after I play smile he pulled it out and I walked out. Wow.

Damn. Oh okay. What the oh you were talking about being the first to do a lot of stuff. Sexy Red I know you was bringing her outside a long time ago. I know people bring this up. Charlamagne mentions it a lot of times too that you were the one of the first to be like pushing her and like you were booking her for some of the days that you do. Yeah, I did.

Now looking at like right now today when you see everything you'd be feeling like, told you like how you'd be feeling. I just be proud that she ain't the first one I do it all the time. I don't take credit for like that because I feel like that's what we supposed to do. But that's why I say I'm the oldest young because people used to look at me like that. They used to say he too ghetto, he too too hood but I know like I could see it so when I saw her I was like nah she got it and that's why I was like and people was like man don't bring her to Duval that like she is Duval Day and she came there and rocked it and just to see and it ain't me she did it all herself so I mean she deserved

Well, first of all, for me, I feel like when things happen, I want to go to see what you

tweet about because you have a take, but you make it funny. But if you read through the fun, you really have a sharp take on things. Do you do that? You really pay attention to me. Do you do that purposely? Like, is that like the, you know, I used to do it, but now I'm programmed into doing it. It's just natural. You know what I'm saying?

It's like you program yourself to be good, you naturally be good. And that's what I do with my tweets. So anything you see me do, I don't put that much thought in it because I put thought in it early on in my career. So it's just second nature to me. What's one thing on IG you just can't stand or one person that you just can't stand on IG? I can't stand people that complain.

That's my pet peeve, people complain. And that's all I see people complaining about stuff that they can't control. You know what I'm saying? That's my pet peeve, people complain, and that's all I see, people complaining about stuff that they can't control, you know what I'm saying? That's my pet peeve in life and everything. He said the person though, who's the person? Oh, I ain't got no person. I just said person or things. That shit don't work with me.

We ain't finna have no type of, no type of clickbait in this interview. I would never do that in the hallway. That's your friend over there. That ruined my life. We don't be trying. That's your friend over there. life. We don't be trying. We don't be knowing this **** is going to go clickbait

and then three weeks later it goes out. Oh lord. We did not think that was going to rip. What's your issue with sexy backs? What's your issue with sexy backs? You mean big backs? You said a woman with a sexy back is dangerous and you gave an example of a sexy back like that.

So how is that an issue? That's a blessing in the good way. No, I took it like well, that's what your problem you taking it the wrong way That's the problem with social media y'all interpreted how y'all want to interpret. Well, you only reading it He's sexy day. I said hi Say this tweet again a woman with the sexy back is dangerous and you Explain how you took that? with the sexy back is dangerous and you took that I was like we gotta be dangerous so you saw it but then if you go to my Instagram I got a thousand

women showing me they sexy back I see the Instagram so that's the problem I'll take it and run and just that's that's that's the main thing that I get problems with. Most of the people that find offensive something, they took the wrong way. That's really all it is. I wasn't offended, I was just like.

I know, but I'm saying even taking, you didn't take that as offensive, but you took it the wrong way. I did drop it in a group chat. I'm like, dang. He meant dangerous in a good way though. I get it now. Like she can get you caught up type.

I was three times. He wasn't talking about you. You know how many tweets I done got like that, that women done got offended by just from that? What else. I wasn't talking about you. You know how many tweets I've got like that, that women got offended by just from that? What else? I ain't from the city. The big back women want you to show them some love too though. I can't do it.

I can't do it. You know you had posted a wide back, no that wasn't a wide back, that was like a wide butt or something. You was like, no man should come home to this. Nah, yeah I don't like no, there that's that. Who was it? You wanna see the picture?

That's how you did the butt starts here That's how you know some bulls**t nobody should come home today So you will be coming at you like a real life people be running up on you like yo Why you like no just be on social media nobody coming up? Then you told that story though. No, I did.

No, I told it on here. Let's leave it alone. Yeah, man. God is good. You weren't ready to go. You ain't ready to be anywhere. One question. We didn't want to.

One question. I've been DEI. I was DEI before DEI. I've been supporting people that are still coming up. When you shot black, you not worried about the all of us. I shot for people that are still trying to come up. It ain't gotta be black. I feel it.

If you trying to come up and you still, like everybody can't make it, like the regular route, you got me. You posted that the DEI blackout happened and it was easy because you don't buy nothing no way. All y'all invested in boycotting companies that have removed it, huh? I didn't say all that.

That one didn't sound like me. That's unreal. I'm like that? You can't find a tweet where I said all that. What'd you say, because you don't buy nothing anyway? I mean, I'm rich, bro. I buy what I want to buy. I spend, but I don't spend like how people just

spend on random stuff. We appreciate you for joining us, brother. I appreciate you. Little dooball, ladies and gentlemen, he left without getting in trouble. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

But they have been, but Ashanti has been on a press release because she is promoting a new,

it's like a show or movie that she's acting in. She stopped by Tamron Hall and she was talking about the engagement. We didn't really know too much about how it happened and all that stuff because they kept things so private. But she opened up the Tamron Hall about the engagement. Let's take a listen. I had kind of a feeling and I was like, hmm, I wonder if this is, you know, I wonder if he's thinking about, you know, so it was out there, but it wasn't like a pressure thing.

It wasn't, you know, but when he did it, I had on like his t shirt and like boxers and like I was in a bed, you know what I mean? It was so, it was so not cute, hair in a bun, you know what I mean? But it was us, you know, we were home in St. Louis. My jaw hit the floor. I was just like, you know, I couldn't believe it. He was like, well, are you going to answer? He literally said, well, yes or no. But it was magical. It was beautiful. And I think everything happens in God's divine timing. That is true.

So beautiful. And men, if I can give you one piece of advice, make all the engagement special. Like jump out the window with the engagement, because that is a story for her to tell later. For the rest of her life. For the rest of her life. 100%.

And to the homegirls of the you know going to be engaged woman Please make sure the nails are done always tell my friends that like just make sure that my nails are how I want them You all know how I want them um But she was also What? You playing you talk about stuff like that Yeah, but the fact that you put yourself in the friend like not the person who might no no no that's what I told my friends Like I know how I want my nails for my engagement because you

take pictures of the hand make sure that when he comes to you and tells you he's doing it I have that specific now oh you want your oh you want the man to come to your friends he's gonna talk to my friends I get it but I wouldn't go to the friends you usually the man goes to the dad's but you know what but Anyway Leave alone. I'm gonna throw this bull egg at you. You got one that was strike three. All right Okay, now what I wanted to get to was Ashanti was also on Angie Martinez last week and this interview was amazing Andy Martinez does in real life She said that when Ashanti and Ashanti for the first time talked about everything that has happened with Irv Gotti in his past And let's take a listen to that. You don't really see this coming.

You know what I mean? It really just came out of nowhere, you know? Did you think you'd have the opportunity where you could maybe have something cordial? I really wanted it to happen, you know? Because I'm like, yo, like I said, we made history together, you know? That is infinite. Like, we're we made history together. You know, that is infinite.

Like we're talking about my son. My son is going to know that we made these records together. You know what I mean? And I'm sad that, um, the last few years we weren't seeing eye to eye. What I do know is that I tried, you know, I do know that I extended the olive branch. And I do know that again I tried to just I just wanted things to be cool. Yeah, and I'm listening to that I'm like oh wow like I didn't know that she had extended that olive branch so you know I think we were talking about this when he passed away wondering

like you know what conversations might have or might not have been had so that she did to know she tried I'm like I know she just shows she's a bigger person and the fact that she tried to reach out she's grown and she was probably like'm like, I don't know, she just said. It shows she's a bigger person and the fact that she tried to reach out, she's grown and she was probably like, I moved on, I have a family, I have a husband, let's squash this, we'll be making so much music together. That's pretty big because he said nasty things about her when he was alive. And also too, when you say F somebody, you better make sure that bridge is completely burnt because while that person's alive, if y'all not rocking with each other, when that
