Starting point is 00:04:32 So we'll talk to them in a little bit and then we got front page news when we come back and Morgan will be joining us. So don't go anywhere, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ NVHS, Larry is Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now some quick sports.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Congratulations to Kevin Durant. He became the eighth NBA player to score over 30,000 points. So drop a bomb for Kevin Durant. He's had a fantastic career. He definitely has. Yesterday, he finished the game with 34 points and three rebounds, three assists and five blocks. So congratulations to KD.
Starting point is 00:05:02 What's up, Morgan? Hey, we love to see it. Hey, shout out to KD. You know, he's from What's up Morgan? Hey, we love to see it. Hey, shout out to KD. You know, he from the DMV, you know, we unmatched out here just saying. What's up is y'all. How y'all doing on this snowy Sunday,
Starting point is 00:05:13 or snowy Wednesday morning? What day is it? Bless black and holly, favorite. It's Wednesday. Wednesday, it's snowing in the DMV. I'm down here with you. So I'm looking at this snow come down, look like Christmas all over again.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Yes, so let's get into the front page. So President Trump, he is providing Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency with more power to reshape the federal government. Now, this comes as Doge is cutting nearly a billion dollars from the Department of Education. Officials announced they terminated 89 contracts and 29 grants for the department
Starting point is 00:05:42 and will cut about $900 million total. Many of the cuts will impact the Institute of Education Science which researches best practices in education. So the news comes two weeks after federal testing data showed reading achievements among students are at historic lows. Now Elon Musk says DOGE work is vital. So let's hear more from Elon Musk. So we've got a $2 trillion deficit. And if this if we don't do something about this deficit, the country's going bankrupt. It's not optional for us to sit to reduce the federal expenses. It's essential. It's essential for America to remain solvent as a country. And it's essential for America to have the resources necessary to provide things to its citizens.
Starting point is 00:06:25 You know, it's interesting, right? All these folks are losing their jobs because of Doge. What I would like to know about Doge is all these jobs are getting cut. You're reducing federal expenses. Where is that money going? Like I heard him say that that money is gonna go back to American citizens, but how? How is that money is gonna go back into the pockets of American citizens? So what's the plan? You're saving all this money. Where's the money gonna go? Are they gonna start giving out stimulus checks again? I'm just asking. I don't know. They got lower taxes. Yeah, supposedly it's gonna be a tax cut for those for the wealthy. Supposedly. It's definitely gonna be a tax cut for the wealthy. That's just what Republicans do. But I'm talking about, you know, everyday folks that aren't wealthy. Well, it seems like it's gonna be a big tax cut. So Trump signed, of course, the executive action into he signed the executive order
Starting point is 00:07:07 in action on Tuesday requiring agencies to work with those two slash workforces along with eliminating the hiring of replacements. So you're not even going to get replacements in those positions. When asked about call on people calling his efforts a hostile takeover, Musk said that people voted for major government reform and that is that's what the people are going to get and you know Trump says he doesn't think that any judges are going to take any issue with Doge and this comes of course as others have blocked executive orders that he
Starting point is 00:07:38 has recently signed. For example the birthright citizenship, federal funding freeze and of course the federal jobs buyout. Many people took issue with Elon Musk standing over Trump yesterday as he spoke. What do you guys think about that? I think Elon Musk literally controls how the government pays people and not enough folks care for my liking. I understand there's a lot going on in the world, but for everyone who cares about their pockets, you care about the economy, you voted for Trump because of the price of eggs.
Starting point is 00:08:05 All these things should concern you that Elon Musk is doing. Because Elon Musk is not an elected official. You didn't vote for him. A billionaire having the power to reshape the federal government is oligarchy. But at the end, I would say they kind of did, right? Because they voted for Trump, but they knew what Trump was going to do.
Starting point is 00:08:22 This is no surprise. But they knew Trump was going to put Elon in position. No, we did not Did not do that I think we did nobody knew they were gonna put Elon Musk in a position to literally control out of government Pays people I didn't I didn't see that coming. I think I think I did those were supposed to be an organization That was for government efficiency, right? But even that was ridiculous ridiculous But no this man literally controls how the government pays people I was in Maryland this weekend And I told y'all folks was coming up to me talking to me about how they may potentially you know Lose their jobs because of what Elon Musk is doing yeah, I think people I think people seen that you know I was gonna be doing a lot of no
Starting point is 00:09:00 Absolutely not it just all right kill me how he was chilling though with the baby on his head and just, you know what I mean? Oh yeah, oh man. Didn't he say Morgan that sometimes he was like, uh, sometimes I will be incorrect. Yes, yes. When they correct. Y'all just correct me. Yeah, that's what he said.
Starting point is 00:09:16 He said, sometimes I'm not going to get it all right, you know, and something that's okay. And that he does expect to be corrected and that's okay. So federal workers and education advocates are continuing their protests against the Trump administration. Now, Congressman Hakeem Jeffries, he spoke to protesters at a rally yesterday organized by the American Federation of Government Employees, and he slammed the recent executive orders signed by Trump.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Let's hear more from Hakeem Jeffries. The attack on you, the attack on the civil service is unacceptable, unconscionable, un-American. We are going to stand with you until each and every one of those unlawful executive orders are fully and completely reversed, buried in the ground, never to rise again. Yes, so hundreds of protesters gathered outside the Consumer Financial Bureau yesterday after the agency was told to suspend operations. Of course, critics like Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, she claimed the shutdown is an attempt by Musk to restrict federal oversight of the U.S. financial system.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Furthermore, based on what you kind of said, Charlemagne. So today we will also see a protest from the National Education Association against the confirmation of Education Secretary nominee Linda McMahon at the Capitol. So- It's a constitutional crisis, man. And you know, folks need to act like it. And by the way,
Starting point is 00:10:36 I don't want to see Hakeem Jeffries front and center. He don't have the fight that I like. You know what I mean? Chuck Schumer is better than him. And that's not a good thing. Okay. Give me Jasmine Crockett. Give me AOC. Hakeem Jeffries needs to stay behind the scenes and work internally. you know me chuk shuman is better than him and that's not a good thing okay give me jasmine kroggy give me a l c i came jerry needs to be behind the scenes and uh... what work internally
Starting point is 00:10:49 i don't want to see him out in front and center all right well that is front page news we'll see you next album he moved like that he got he got like a young body but he still got that old energy of the chuk shumans and all of them i don't know no all right well everybody else get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one oh five one if you need to vent phone lines are wide open again 800-585-1051 get it off your chest phone lines are wide open.

Starting point is 00:18:18 800-585-105 when we got just with the best coming over we talk about Jess Yes, Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl performance is now the most watched of all time guys All right, we'll get into that next is the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club Charlamagne is a menace. No this whole room is crazy. You crazy? Okay this whole room is just a bunch of insults flying. Everybody walking in and out. That's why I asked you what I'm doing for Valentine's Day.

I feel bad for all the single women I've this guy disrespect me just and I was asking for no reason She just was doing Galen times just goes just goes come on everybody we all the breakfast club
Starting point is 00:18:57 But just goes behind the scenes Lauren. What are you doing for Valentine's Day? Laughing I'm doing stuff. Exactly. I'm doing stuff. Let's get to Jess with the message. Your news is real, whether it's Mr. Flaurius, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lying. She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide message. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:19:24 She's a coacheship. while I met her on the Breakfast Club. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it on. So he broke that record, huh? He broke that record. Talk to him about Kendrick, the Super Bowl performance. Yeah, so Kendrick Lamar, yesterday it was announced via Fox that his Super Bowl halftime performance is now the most watched Super Bowl halftime show in the history of the halftime show. Dropping the clues bomb for Kendrick Lamar. Dropping the clues bomb for Roc Nation. Let me ask a question.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I see something online that they said last year Roc Nation posted Usher did a certain number and then the number was backtrack. Is any of that true that I've seen? I'm not for sure about that part of it. I did see what you're talking about. However- This life can't have a breed over there hating. I'm not hating. I just see something online and I'm asking. I'm not hating. I'm not for sure about that part of it. I did see what you're talking about. However, I'm not gonna find a way to try to make Hendrick not do it. There was something on. Oh, he's not an OB hole anymore. I've never been. Yeah. anymore. Yeah, I mean cuz he can delete his wholeness. I'm not messing with you
Starting point is 00:20:25 I have no dog in this fight. I like Drake and I like you got out. So what is the So Kendrick that there was a 1.33 133.5 million people I said that wrong 133.5 million people tuned in to watch Kendrick from between 8 30 p.m 8 45 p.m Cuz this halftime show is short people have to realize that and I think the discrepancy comes in because when you talk about these numbers it's not just television you can
Starting point is 00:20:51 stream it like there's so many other ways that you can listen so all the data has to be collected it was on to me it was I watched it on to be you better believe it was on TV now usher had previously set this record if you this is what you're talking about with the record of 129.3 million average viewers believe it was on TV. Now Usher had previously set this record, Envy this is what you're talking about, with the record of 129.3 million average viewers last year. They've been setting the record every year though. Every year since Rock Nation has been doing it. Yes sir, so Rock Nation is doing a really good job. All told it was a great Sunday for the NFL Super Bowl. It was the most watched Super Bowl game ever with an average of 127.7 million viewers total
Starting point is 00:21:28 compared to 123.7 million in 2024. And it'd be Michael Jackson, right? Because Michael Jackson was the biggest. This is at Kendrick Lamar. Congratulations. In history. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:39 So there's a ton of numbers here, but yes, this broke records. Now I will say, yeah, congratulations to him. People still arguing about whether it was good or whether it wasn't. It was impactful. It did what it needed to do to people tuned in. Okay. And I think the year that he had leading up to it had a lot to do with that. People were curious to see what was going to happen. Kendrick's performance is doing exactly what it should be doing and that's getting people talking. It's a discussion around his performance, a discussion around his art and yeah, it did
Starting point is 00:22:02 what it's supposed to do. Absolutely. And some other, speaking of Super Bowl, something happened with CJ Richardson mother. CJ Gardner. Oh, alright, go ahead. I'm not an Eagles fan, my bad. CJ somebody, go ahead. I got you. So CJ Gardner, who is an Eagles player, he took a jab at Travis Kelsey like right after
Starting point is 00:22:23 the game because after the game there was a photo of Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift hugging and kissing out just like you know She's kind of consoling him after the game or whatever and CJ Gardner posted his insta story the photo of them He said you should have stayed with that thick s-word drop on the clues month CJ garden. So I'm talking about type of hate. I like It's cuz he don't like Taylor Swift. Yeah, but my thing is you already won I just say it's not that I'm mad at what CJ said It's the fact that I don't like how they keep disrespecting Taylor Swift and she ain't do nothing But just be with this other people, but let's be clear. He is right though. What you mean? I mean, come on You just stay with the thick Business he's white. He wasn't white when he was wearing
Starting point is 00:23:14 He was Lauren spicy mayo Elvis I was so confused But Jesse is right, you know, he's with his kind. Yeah. Yeah, like why we care about that? It's a black white. To clarify, because I said it was the photo of Travis and Taylor Swift. CJ posted a photo of him and Travis on the field and then said you should have stayed with that thick S-word.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Yeah, they were probably arguing the whole game. I still like to hate them. I'm sure they were. It's amazing. I'm here for it too. But here's the thing. Okay, so first of all, the thick girl that he's talking about, of course, is Kaila Nicole. Kaila Nicole was getting dragged too just for being at the Super Bowl because she's
Starting point is 00:23:53 an Eagles fan and she was on the field and she was celebrating. But people weren't coming to her defense. Now somebody who's going to need somebody to come to their defense right now is CJ Gardner Johnson's mom because she has a business she owns a restaurant. And right after he posted this, people tell us with fans went online and were literally trolling her restaurant bad reviews and stuff like that. Bad reviews, terrible customer service below average food, worst food of my life. The chicken was raw. They should close it down for putting people's lives at risk. Like it was so bad. Now I know that his parents spoke out and said that you know, they're not sweating it or whatever
Starting point is 00:24:28 They said, you know, this is all jokes because their restaurant is actually being closed since January So the reviews aren't gonna do anything to it. But it's just like y'all fans is that connected? Yes His mama put out a statement and say yeah we've seen all the reviews joke is really on the Swifties and everyone entertaining the reviews because Kings Grill is closed. Yeah well at least they didn't go looting or anything like that. His parents, CJ, Jordan Johnson, his parents named Adele and Brian, they said they're going to be at the parade Friday. So pull up the big ones.
Starting point is 00:25:17 The drink drop. Yeah, drink and drop. We already got that out. No, we didn't drop his nuts in a year. We talking about the party next door album, the love songs for you. That's that out. No, he dropped his nuts in a year. We talked about the party next door album, the love songs for you that's coming out. He didn't drop yet that comes out on Valentine's Day is actually parties album. But Drake is reportedly going to be featured on it. He dropped album art yesterday, though. So this album art in the album art,
Starting point is 00:25:39 you see Drake, you see party next door. They're covered in fur. And people were trying to like dissect this album art because this is the first time that we're seeing Drake do anything you know major like this musically since all of the Kendrick Lamar stuff and since the Super Bowl and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, right. So people are trying to figure out like what the two towers in the background were and it was just like a whole thing online. I know party so mad. Now you want to do an album with me? I've
Starting point is 00:26:04 been right next door all this time now you want to do an album with me I've been right next door all this time and you ain't want to do nothing But now you want to come out and play with me now But guess what he playing ain't yeah, yeah Like they're they're actually a Melbourne right now I think it's evening there they're coming up on it and fans believe that Drake is gonna bring party out and they might like Just preview one of the songs party in Australia. Is he out there? I don't know I'm just telling you they just make it online the OVO squad things online But the two towers in the back of the album are they're actually the absolute world towers that this is in party next door
Starting point is 00:26:39 It's hometown of mess. Oh, I don't know how you say this Massawaga, Canada Canada, you know, you know, you said it's still Drake, but we haven't seen Drake perform without his superpowers yet. And what I mean by that is when the album drops and he's not getting all of the favors, he's not getting the... Have you ever looked into the night sky
Starting point is 00:26:59 and wondered who or what was flying around up there? We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons, and birds. But what if there's something else, something much more ominous, that appears under the cover of night, silent, unseen, watching? They may be right above your car late one night as you cruise down the road, or look like mysterious lights hovering above your car late one night as you cruise down the road or look like mysterious lights hovering above your home. Drones.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Or are they? We used the word 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.
Starting point is 00:27:58 Why would you do that to me when I thought we were friends? We are friends. Los Angeles, 2021. A friendly neighbor appears out of nowhere and promises to make all my dreams come true. Let's not forget that David Blum was a professional con artist, so you didn't stand a chance. But my dreams soon turned into a nightmare. Blum generally targeted people with money. And I was not alone.
Starting point is 00:28:27 He took over 100 people for over $15 million. One of the victims was his own grandmother. I was married to David for almost 10 years. It was insane. I was barely functioning. And I just had this realization that he will not stop until he kills me. Getting a con artist to pay for their crimes isn't easy. Charge David Lowe!

These fortunes are almost illegitimate unless in a very smart way given back.
Starting point is 00:30:16 One of the biggest names in business tech and philanthropy. Exploring and investing in innovative solutions to some of the world's toughest problems. Bill Gates. Starting with Microsoft where I had monomaniacal focus, giving up weekends and vacation wasn't some big sacrifice. I loved it. I've always underestimated how incredible my father was. He would say, Hey, I'm sorry I worked so hard.
Starting point is 00:30:39 And I'd say, No, no, that was fine. I feel lucky that he lived as long as he did. It brings tears to my eyes because he was incredible.

Starting point is 00:31:00 The special looks on the playlist. He's not getting the special looks at radio. He's not getting the special looks from the label. What is that Drake gonna look like? I don't know I'm not saying that you know, he definitely got fans got a lot of people that love him to support him That's what I need for are they gonna show up? Yeah, we don't know We don't know how heavy he is on this album yet Either it's rumored that he's supposed to be featured on every single song. But what if he's only on he said it He said he said
Starting point is 00:31:22 I know he's on the album, but every single... so he confirmed that every single song... He said it's a collaboration album between him and Party. That's what he said. Well, he's on the front of the art, so we'll see what happens. So, we need to see... we gotta see what he looks like when his superpowers have been neutralized. That's just a fact. We gotta see. We don't know. I'm not saying that his fans aren't gonna show up, because he definitely has fans. We just don't know what he's gonna look like without the superpowers with all without all the favors from radio
Starting point is 00:31:47 Without all the favors from the playlist. Yeah without all the favors from the label pushing things We got to see what it look like. We about to see. All right Colonizing that is left to do but just more colonization then Colonize That is just what the mess. I want to tell you, Lauren be asking me to ask stupid questions too, right? That is not a stupid question. Nobody has to ask you to ask stupid questions.

Lauren be like, yo, can you ask them if there's any jewels on the album cover that we didn't see yet that we could break down?

Yeah, reach out. cover that we didn't see yet that we could break down. Can you tell what does the furs mean? How's who that? OVO people. The source. The sources. She be teaching us how to reach out. Can you reach out and see what the furs mean?
Starting point is 00:32:31 Has it? What the buildings in the background, how come we can't see Drake's face? I'm like, I'm not asking all that stupid stuff. My little razzle dazzle has added, but did you die? Are you guys good? And I did, I asked all those questions too. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:32:41 All right. We'll be back with those answers, hopefully. We got full-based news when we come back. then uh and then uh Two Chains Alchemist and Larry June will be joining us at the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody it's DEJ, Envy, Jess, Larry, Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Start off with some quick sports. Again we just got to congratulate Kevin Durant. He became the eighth NBA player to score over 30,000 points. So congratulations to KD. Amazing career KD has had man.
Starting point is 00:33:08 A couple of championships, MVP awards over 30,000 points. Yep. He did that. Absolutely. Morning Morgan. Good morning, good morning. Yes, we love to see it. Shout out to the real MVP out of the DMV.
Starting point is 00:33:21 I'm just saying. All right, y'all. So President Trump, he says the US taking over Gaza will lead to peace in the Middle East. Speaking alongside the King of Jordan on Tuesday, Trump said the Gaza Strip was a is a war torn region and added that Palestinians will be moved to what he called a safer place. He also doubled down on a Saturday deadline for Hamas to release all remaining hostages. And he said he doesn't think Hamas will meet that deadline. Let's hear more from Trump. We're gonna take it. We're gonna hold it. We're gonna cherish it. We're going to get
Starting point is 00:33:53 it going eventually where a lot of jobs are gonna be created for the people in the Middle East. It's gonna be for the people in the Middle East, but I think it could be a diamond. I don't wanna do two and then we do another two in another week and then we do four and three weeks now. No. They either have them out by Saturday at 12 o'clock or all bets are off. Yeah so Jordan, the Jordan King Abdullah the second pledged to take in 2,000 sick Palestinian children. He further said conversation amongst Egypt and other Arab nations will be ongoing in an effort to come to common ground in regards to this. Now Israel is gathering troops in and around Gaza ahead of Hamas hostage release deadline.
Starting point is 00:34:36 The militant group threatened to delay the release of hostages after accusing Israel violating their ceasefire agreement. Now Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he warned that the Gaza ceasefire would end if Hamas would end if Hamas did not release the hostages this weekend. Netanyahu said in a statement in light of Hamas's announcement of its decision to violate the agreement and not release our hostages, I instructed the IDF last night to amass forces inside and around the Gaza Strip. So we're looking at this Saturday deadline of 12 p.m. according to us, or what President Trump has said, but it seems as though Israel is,
Starting point is 00:35:13 basically we're aligning with our allies. Yeah, are they gonna even, the other countries, are they even gonna get the opportunity to take those children from Palestine in, or will all of those children be killed on Saturday? Because when you say you are sending them to a better place, that's what, you know, President Trump said, is that safer place or better place heaven? They don't seem like they're trying to get these folks to a safer place if you're going to use force or war, you know, to get them out. Because, and I asked this question yesterday, and I'm asking it again,
Starting point is 00:35:42 if they don't meet the deadline on Saturday and you just send troops in there to wreck everything are the hostages gonna get killed when y'all in there just wrecking everything? Everybody. Yeah you're right. Everybody's gonna get killed. I don't get it. Yeah no to your point it is very vague it is very vague and there's no and all hell breaking loose is not definitive we don't know what that actually means. Yeah especially when it's still hostages there. You don't want all hell to break loose while the hostages still there, right? If you genuinely care about the hostages. Absolutely, absolutely. Switching gears, but also still in some international affairs,
Starting point is 00:36:15 you know, a Pennsylvania teacher imprisoned in Russia on drug charges since 2021. He's back in America. Mark Fogle arrived at the White House last night after being released by the Kremlin and flown out of the country on a jet of President Trump's special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff. Now he was arrested on charges of bringing medical marijuana into Russia in 2021 and was classified as wrongfully detained by the Biden administration last year. An oppressor at the White House last night, Fogle thanked everyone who helped get him home and Trump said the deal was fair, but he did not elaborate on whether or not he spoke to President Vladimir Putin about that deal. Let's hear more from Fogel and Trump.
Starting point is 00:36:55 I feel like the luckiest man on earth right now. And I want you to know that I am not a hero in this at all. Very fair, very, very fair, very reasonable, not like deals you've seen over the years. They were very fair. I think this could be the very important element. You could be a big part of it actually because it could be a big important part of getting the war over with Ukraine. Congratulations to that man.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Got to know the laws of other countries you travel to though. We may be legal here, maybe medicinal here. You take that somewhere else. But you hear so many stories. How many times do we have to tell stories of people getting locked up and getting locked up for a long time before people say, you know what, maybe I better not carry it.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Yeah, but it's not even just weed. I mean, it could be anything. It could be a spent casing. You could have gone to the gun range and took the same bag to the airport. You guys really gotta be careful traveling overseas, period. But that goes to say that there is supposed to also be another American hostage that will be released today.
Starting point is 00:37:53 This comes of course as Britton Griner, Paul Whelan, Trevor Reed, and Evan Gershwitz are some of the most recent Americans released in prisoner swaps from Russia. Meanwhile, switch things to you guys in New York. An update up top. New York City Mayor Eric Adams says it's time to move on after the Justice Department instructed the Southern District of New York to dismiss the corruption case against him. He said he will focus on serving New Yorkers and once again he denied any wrongdoing.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Let's hear from New York City Mayor Eric Adams. We can put this cruel episode behind us and focus entirely on the future of our city. It's time to move forward. That many New Yorkers will still question my character. And I know that I must continue to regain your trust. I never broke the law and I never would. I would never put any personal benefit above my solemn responsibility as your mayor.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Yeah, so regaining the trust of New Yorkers is probably going to be a serious task. Adams was set to go on trial in April for federal corruption charges. Critics have argued that he cozied up to the Trump administration in an effort to get the case dropped or be granted a pardon. Now New York Governor Kathy Hochul, she says she is monitoring the situation and of course after the Southern District was requested to drop that case. And she does say she has confidence in the mayor, but she's going to continue to monitor the situation and see what happens. What the reality is New Yorkers don't really trust anybody. Okay. So it's a New York thing regardless. I understand what Mayor Adams is trying to say,
Starting point is 00:39:31 but you're fine Mayor Adams. But what is the governor gonna watch? He says she's gonna watch over it. What is she gonna do? She can't do nothing about it, right? I mean, yeah, unless she's, I don't know what she's trying to say. Unless she's, it sounds like when you say stuff like that,
Starting point is 00:39:42 it's like, all right now, we watching your ass, okay? Yeah, Mr. Innocent, all right? Yeah, Mr. Never Committed No Crime, we got eyes on you. Yeah, well, she wants to make sure that he is doing his job in terms of servicing the people of New York or the city of New York. And she says she's going to continue to work with him on their mutual priorities. So I guess it's just a matter of getting back to work and making sure that none of this, because, you know, she had to answer to some of the things that was going
Starting point is 00:40:10 on with him. So maybe she just wants to, you know, smooth it all over. I'm going to continue to watch the monitor situation. And yeah, let's get back to work with people of New York. So there you go. But then that's it. That's the front page news. I'm Morgan Wood. Follow me on social at That's the front page news.

They have a new album called Life Is Beautiful, and we're gonna talk to them next, so don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club, good morning.
Starting point is 00:40:49 The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody, it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building this morning. Yes indeed. We got The Alchemist, we got Larry June and Two Chains. Welcome. Good morning. Look, man. New album Life Is Beautiful is out right now. We got the alchemist we got Larry June and to change Welcome Life is beautiful is out right now early album of the year contender starless only February
Starting point is 00:41:12 Early album of the year contender man. I appreciate that man. So how y'all brothers feeling? I'm good about chains had to make the wall number one of your legend That's number one, but number two change was the first, the first breakfast club show we ever did. And the first person that performed for us or anything was two chains. And how'd you get two chains around? All that don't matter, that's bad. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Jess, you weren't here, so at the time we didn't have no money, right? So two chains did it for the love. And Charlamagne was supposed to handle transportation. And then the chains was red hot, I mean red hot. Like early, early incarnate, what's the word, incarnations of two chains. He was Red Hot.
Starting point is 00:41:50 I don't know what Red Hot is. But Charlamagne was supposed to handle car service. Charlamagne man had a car. Charlamagne didn't say it was a caravan. Picked up two chains and a caravan. Yes, yes he did. You just thought that was cool? I had the money.
Starting point is 00:42:02 He thought that was cool. I thought he saw that in the door. Damn, but you supposed to let a **** know a van gonna come pick him up and not a black truck. I didn't know they was going had the money. I thought you saw that in the door. Damn, but you're supposed to let a f***ing Noah Vang going to come pick him up and not a black truck. I didn't know they was going in a van. I thought they had SUVs and stuff. But Chang, he never, he never leave. Never complained.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Never complained. Never talked about y'all. And always, never talked about all the shows. We always appreciate it. Thank you sir. How y'all three link up for this album? Well, let me see. I know Larry and I worked together before.
Starting point is 00:42:24 I'm a fan of his music, you know what I'm saying? He a player, you know what I'm saying? I'm a player. I don't know, we had a conversation, like just about doing a couple of records. And he's somebody that's into like cohesiveness and everything. So he was like, we just need to do one producer, you know what I'm saying? We're going to rock with Al. And it just started becoming like every time a song was finished it started becoming just doper and doper You know what I mean? I felt like man, we probably need to buy six seven more, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, before you knew it is like what he said early contender for album of the year How did Alchemist get into play? Why was he the producer? Why he was the one that's like this is the sound we want for this one Didn't y'all lock in? We had we were already working like we had been talking for a while
Starting point is 00:43:04 We had a couple records in motion like the last couple years. I've been working with Al, but with me, a lot of my projects, they would have different producers so I would have two or three Al type joints on it. It would feel good, but people would just kind of go towards the party records or the trap records. So it felt good for me just to do what I really like to do best and that's rap. You know 2 Chainz, those real hip hop beats, that boom-bap. You know what I mean? That's Sun Dunn. What about those types of sounds that energizes your pin-note? My voice is able to cut through on samples
Starting point is 00:43:37 with the trap drums I'll be having to like kind of yell a little bit. I can sit down and record when I'm doing these songs. I'll be having to stand up and record trap songs and then and I'll be having to kind of be creative and sometimes I hit it and sometimes I miss but I have to be creative around the drums and kind of peek my head out but with those loops and things like that I'm able just to get my idea across. Looser. Yeah. You get looser on those beats because it's like it's just a fillet it's not like you know like it's kind of understated the production so it leaves room for like the lyricists like if you know
Starting point is 00:44:05 If you got something to say on those type of beats you're gonna flourish. You know change Larry They're those type of MCs like less is more Expand on that like a full a like a yeah like a raw fillet of music versus like a stacked up like I would Compare like a trap beat to something that's layered up I just focus on a book with some of these are kind of just wrong It's just like a mood you to something that's layered up. Like his vocals on the vocals. Some of these are kind of just raw and it's just like a move, you know what I mean? Or it's like they're just to just to move their pen. So it's like the focus is on the lyricist.
Starting point is 00:44:31 People who know music know 2 Chainz has always been top tier would depend. Like, but he always had the knack to make hit records too. You know, but that never fooled me. Like I could tell the MCs like a big Sean or somebody who's like, yo, he makes hit records, but he can rap Extremely well like with anybody who you would put on any list, you know So so that's your conference on a trap is not really a trap you just do for us Yeah, really doesn't know so of course I trapped before right and even on this type of subject matter
Starting point is 00:44:59 I talk about the streets in a trap, but early on I'm always throw tech under the bus for this You know early on I was doing a mixt the bus for this you know early on I was doing a mixtape it was called all ice on me it was a double mixtape it was him and scream and then I gave tech like some my yo kid stuff he was like well I want some well give me some of that trap and then when I gave him some of that trap he came back with like data saying boy I'm telling you they rocking with this right here so he was more as a manager more data driven as far as like what the people were leaning towards when I would drop a project that had some some lyrics and some trap stuff you know I mean. But you know I'm in this thing to like to show growth anyway and to show that anything's possible you know I'm saying. I
Starting point is 00:45:38 ain't getting my millions till I was after 30 you know I'm saying. I'm still out here having more motion in the ocean. You know what I'm saying. Business is doing here having more motion in the ocean Same business is doing good the wraps gonna come out We're gonna talk about how we got these businesses in this passive income going we gonna pop it like that You know I'm saying I ain't spending no blocks. I ain't got time to go to jail leave my family Crash dummy mission you could never get me like that So it's just like I just stay out the way I'm very very highly confident in everything I do and so that's my comfort zone knowing that when I walk in the room my Chin up my chest out. I'm like that. You know I'm saying like man. confident in everything I do. And so that's my comfort zone, knowing that when I walk in the room, my chin up, my chest out, I'm like that. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:46:08 Like, man, God did his thing with me. What I like about you, Lyra, you rap about a lot of health and organic living. Like, what got you into a mindfulness lifestyle and what made you start putting that in your music? You know, I started a little, like, I dropped my first mixtape when I was 15. I was kinda talking about a lot of shit
Starting point is 00:46:23 that I wasn't really, like, fully into. Then I had just tuned into my real, what I was 15. I was kind of talking about a lot of shit that I wasn't really like fully into Then I had just tuned into my real what I was into in like my actual life And when I started rapping about my day to day, it just started working for me You know what I mean? I'm kind of like him. I didn't make no bread until to my 30s really too So, you know, I had to go through the ups and downs and really finding myself as an artist and when I started talking about the shit That I really like to do it just just kinda started coming natural for me. So early on you had a lot of cap in your rap? Yeah, I was 15, 16, you know, I was kinda more influenced by the hip hop, you know what
Starting point is 00:46:51 I mean? And it's finding myself as an artist, you know what I mean? And when I started doing that and really following like what I wanna do, it started working out for me. Did somebody tell you or did you just check yourself? Did somebody be like, come on, bro? Nobody can tell me. I was around all day, you know, I'm from there, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:47:04 That was like my environment, it was just more like Nobody can tell me. I was around all that. You know, I'm from that. You know what I'm saying? That was like my environment. It was just more like, what can I bring different to the game? I was like, you know, it's only one me. I can talk about my life and what I do and people relate to it. Some people might not, but people will. And I'm thankful that some people do. You talk about financial literacy a lot, too, which is interesting because, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:21 2 Chainz, he talks about flexing a lot, right? And spending a lot. So how did that mesh in the talks about flexing a lot, right? So, and spending a lot. So how did that, you know, mesh in the studio? Listening to a lot of audio books, you know, in high school, like you know Robert Kawasaki and sh** like, just trying to do better, you know what I mean? Coming from that environment and you know, just trying to switch it up and do something different
Starting point is 00:47:37 and have longevity in my career. So I start acknowledging myself about things like that and just, you know, put it into the music, you know what I mean? And letting people know not the major and minor things but I still I still play I talk my place a little different now I might talk about a $15 orange juice or some I'm the same about the law suit the bucket had come to the side very peaceful young thump up how long does this project take as I saw an interview
Starting point is 00:48:02 you said if you Larry you said said rapping too long gives you anxiety. How do you cope with that? Working with Chains, he changed that. He worked so quick and he owned my phone. With the verse, I had to switch my whole program up. So this was pretty quick. We got a few records we didn't put out yet. I was keeping up with Chains.
Starting point is 00:48:22 He was giving me the sauce and I was seeing what I can do and become different on here. So like working with Chainz and Al, like definitely took me out of my element. You know what I mean? Different patterns and topics and just making me a better MC. I'm very thankful.
Starting point is 00:48:37 Is that pressure though? Yeah. Is that pressure when you're on your line by the verse? It ain't pressure, it's more like I'm getting better. You know what I mean? He a real lyricist,'t pressure, it's more like I'm just I'm getting better. You know I mean he a real lyricist he really really do this so like he give me like style and I ain't even thought about even doing it. I'm gonna rap like this and try this and it's putting me in a different box just like when I did the Great Escape with you I'm telling him like man I love these beastie dudes. He was putting me you know what I mean in the
Starting point is 00:48:59 deep. I think he made us both step up. Just cause of was a little that changes as an artist and as a perfectionist Like we went out to Atlanta and got to work with him in his lab and just got to like get his energy in his world I was like how they work is different. We're impressive like no sleep got In his in his city is like I went home like as a different animal just seeing his operation like change is a mastermind so both of us going out there seeing his operation in Atlanta was like super motivating like yeah we got it. Alright we got more with 2 Chainz, Larry June and Alchemist when we come back that album Life is Beautiful is out right now it's the Breakfast Club good morning. Morning everybody it's DJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are the
Starting point is 00:49:41 Breakfast Club we're still kicking it with 2 Chainz, Larry June and Alchemist that album Life is Beautiful is out right now Charlamagne. guy we are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with two chains Larry June and alchemist Their album life is beautiful is out right now Charlamagne I love that song generations, you know, the hook is a we the generation got all these kids on the dirty sprite We the generation got got them on the perky's every night with a generation got them on switches What was the conversation about that hook because Larry you from that generation that was influenced by a lot of that So I know you had to have a conversation about that song. It just when you look at you know how it is you know everybody you get a little older they they try to unky the devil they try to drink more syrup and you the devil they try
Starting point is 00:50:12 to smoke more whatever than you the devil you got to be like bro we don't want to turn y'all out you know what I'm saying we don't want to get y'all. It's like when I go back and I listen to somebody like 8 Ball and MJG who I came upon they had songs like Arm Raubry they had me me lurking, you know what I mean? And so it's the same thing that I know if it wasn't the music, it's the videos, it's the long blunts and videos we had, it's the double cup, it's stuff y'all daddy was attracted to and then y'all come up and well not y'all, I'm just talking about in general, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:50:42 Some people come up and so that's where the generation idea came from. We kind of the generation that kind of might have messed up some stuff. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Lack of parental advisory going on nowadays. So lack of church God and everything. You know what I'm saying? So the next generation is more prone to listen to somebody who went through it too and survived it
Starting point is 00:51:05 than they are to somebody who just telling them, hey, don't do this and that, but you didn't go through none of that. Yeah. Who gave you the game, Larry? Cause I mean, you got such a good head on your shoulders. I mean, like I said, you talk about financial literacy, you talk about mindfulness.
Starting point is 00:51:16 One of the bars I love on this album, you say, never had a, it was hard to keep. Found out, found one solid hole was all I needed. I'm like for such a young man to understand that, especially with the lifestyle you live in. Yeah. Found out found one solid hole was all I need Just from you know You know, I have my kid early 19, you know I mean now, you know I was forced into being a single father very early and I just kind of changed my mindset on even like having women around Period like you know, my son ain't been around multiple women at all so it was like it's showing him like
Starting point is 00:51:47 I'm not married and then like that so he never really got to see see that so I had to always like let him know that look I'm not married like this but it's good to get married you know if having one person that you're dealing with and um I wouldn't always like that but as I got older I started understanding like man one solid woman can change everything you know You say older you're 33 Yeah I'm you know but yeah I'm still doing numbers I feel like I done lit this **** like a couple times I ain't gonna hold you I feel like I'm way older
Starting point is 00:52:21 And I feel like there ain't no peace peace like having one solid woman is peace you know I mean I feel like I'm way older and I feel like they know peace. Like having one solid woman is peace, you know what I mean? I feel like, you know what I mean? I haven't really experienced that fully yet, you know what I mean? But I'm getting there. I think it bring a lot of peace, it can help you work more and I realized that when I was recording that song.
Starting point is 00:52:35 So was it your father, your uncle, just life? Like. It was more like, because I used to have multiple. You know, I was a multiple kind of guy. Like, you know, I had a honeycomb hideouts, you know what I'm saying? Spots like a cheetah, you know what I mean? So I was moving and grooving. And it was taking up too much of my time,
Starting point is 00:52:52 you know what I'm saying? From working and being with my kid and dealing with this situation. And this happened and I got called, texted. It was too much extra, you know what I'm talking about? So yeah, that's kind of where that line came from. How important is that, James? Because you know you were married man yourself you always see you out with your queen. How important is that to have that?
Starting point is 00:53:11 Oh it's very important for me man especially having somebody uh the matriarch to take care of it. Make sure the home straight, make sure the little Michelinist stuff straight. Someone that fully supports me listens to my music critiques me. She sent me a very very dope message. The morning I woke up. The first message I read was from Keisha saying, basically saying I was a lyrical god, just doing what she's supposed to do with my ego, you know what I'm saying? Massaging that thing.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Yeah, that's right. Yeah, you know, and so, you know, me and her, we laugh every single day, man. We got the same habits, you know what I'm saying? We go out, you know what I'm saying? She come to Candyland with me. It's just like, you know what I'm saying? And when you find somebody like that, I love that line as well, you you know I'm saying we go out, you know I'm saying she come to Candyland with me It's just like you know I'm saying and when you find somebody like that. I love that line as well You know I'm saying we shot the video for that. I thought I was like bomb Sam one, but I don't think they kept my part
Starting point is 00:53:57 Anyway, that's why I was cool working with him because even though the difference between him and I think Wayne is Wayne is a more Metaphoric type of MC, you know what I'm saying? Style MC, you know what I'm saying? And a wordplay physics. With Larry, he just like very direct lifestyle driven, you know what I'm saying? And so it was cool for me to pop out my lifestyle like, bro, I'm having this going on. Let me talk, you know what I'm saying? It was more like it was more like cool ways to express that you not dumb, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:54:23 That's what this project really is. It's just a cool way to express that like, them ain't no dumb brothers right there. You know what I'm saying? You inspired me too, seeing you, how you move with your wife. I'm like, yeah, that's how you do it. Like that's how you rockin' and got your kids.
Starting point is 00:54:34 And that's real, you know what I mean? I was really inspired by that. You know what I mean? Even you talking about your wife all the time, I'm like, yeah, that's how you do it. You know, that's real bulls**t. Every boss got they queen, you know what I'm talking about? So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:44 How old is your son? 13, did your turn 13? He had the hotel right now. Yeah, bring him my school for this man Let's see that okay. So how does that work? You know what I mean? Cuz you don't hear about a lot of single dads are these careers And it's juggled it. It's tough how he was torn with me since he was little I mean, I probably trained him on a spinner van Mm-hmm I mean, so like sometimes I can make it work like my daddy helped me on my grandmother My mom will fly in and help but um it get times like this where it's like you got a slide come on
Starting point is 00:55:14 Get the online working you get to get them a room and we just try to get it done now. I'm just trying to Make it happen it do get tough. Yeah Be on your your conscious like damn I'm doing the right thing as a parent I need to be at school for these three days or whatever but he learning other things too. He learning other things so and he very like ahead of the game for that. Just from traveling with us and seeing different things, been able to meet you know what I mean, artists and he you know he a big inspiration. Y'all talk about that though on Life is Beautiful. Y'all talk about trying to balance being a father
Starting point is 00:55:47 and y'all career. So that's conversations y'all have off the mic? I think it's just evidence. It's just the energy. He spoke about Eli a couple times. And then, you know, I'm Halo, like, the second highest earner in my household. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:56:04 Yeah, baby. He get money. I was going to ask, how do you deal with your son? Halo like the second highest earner in my household Hollering at women Do you tell them chill out a little bit wait a little bit or I ain't never told halo even be humble You know stay there you did confident cocky don't even man humble will Cuz he always me what does mean what does me if he ever asked me what humble me? I don't know Stay like you are and it's just about you installing confidence, especially, you know young black boys, you know I'm saying I'm on them about you know getting his books done whether he reading on the way to train or whatever But it's just you know It's a blessing to have because I honestly feel like he is a direct reflection of my father who passed in 2012
Starting point is 00:56:47 I felt like hey, he's just too mature to be nine years old Yes, I'd be like man any sarcastic just like my dad was so um I Really? I'm into you know, I'm Spiritual type of person. I'm kind of into that and then my two girls They growing up driving my oldest is driving to school. So it's just like, you look up man, next thing you know, you know, the house gonna be empty in a little bit
Starting point is 00:57:12 or whatever that is, you know what I'm saying? But it was cool to kinda pop about it over these type of vibes, you know what I'm saying? And that's what it is. I don't think it's about what the numbers we gonna do. I think if we thought about that, we wanna drop the week at the Super Bowl knowing that that's gonna hype.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Kindred's numbers, you know what I'm saying? I think it was about putting out a project that has replay value. I haven't heard one person that just played it one time. I keep saying I can't take it out, I can't stop playing it, and I can sleep good at night knowing that. Well, let's get into it, June, off the aisle. What y'all wanna hear? Generations? All right. Generations? All right, well Well let's get into it June off the album. What y'all want to hear?
Starting point is 00:57:45 Generation? Alright. Alright well let's get into Generation. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Generation from 2 Chainz, Larry June and Alchemist. They're in the building. Their album Life is Beautiful is out right now. Now 2 Chainz, how did you and Lil Wayne become so cool? Like I know y'all did numerous projects, numerous songs, mixtapes. How did y'all become so cool? The way I met Wayne was just like this. I was obviously selling weed and but
Starting point is 00:58:15 I was selling weed but I was using the money to to book studio time at patchwork You know, that's what people went and so I was in like a little B room and baby then from cash money was in a room 30 cash money dudes with a whatever so somebody me and say them boys next door need some weed so I come over there you know I'm saying it's like the number one you know I'm saying I'm being cool but like he wasn't smoking that time but he had some other guys they take my weed I'm telling them I think the zips was like 450 at the time you know I'm saying I take I give them the zips don't know money come you know I can't give nobody no we ain't in that position so I ain't no going to New Orleans with them following them about this and so this was before Katrina or you know they had
Starting point is 00:58:59 out these match ins everybody had a man they had a matching for everybody then everybody had their own match right I? I'm standing in a mansion for everybody. They got a big jacuzzi, there's a living room, sofa. It's many years ago. And at this point, I'm not a full rapper, I'm a trapper. One day, Wayne comes over, and we go out in the indoor pool, and we smoke some gas together, you know what I'm saying? And that's how I met Wayne, following Baby to New Orleans
Starting point is 00:59:24 about these $900 that he eventually Did you ever get the $900? I got the money Came in with a new car, he was like, y'all, someone bought the car, I came like that I said, hey man, hey OG, I'm really gonna need that I'm way in New Orleans He like, oh so he go slam, oh he did it You should have never collected it so every time you see him you could be like, yo you owe me that
Starting point is 00:59:44 That would have been more valuable than that No, I needed it We did it. So yeah, you should have never collected it. So every time you see him you could be like Looked up I was on the way to New Orleans about that my life They go to my ice man. We are here. We are what we're going. Let's go. I got nothing to do I go to do all about them now, but you know You ever thought about changing your name again because you went from titty boy to two chains and now you you know You're a mogul you ever thought about changing your name again cuz you went from titty boy to two chains And now you you know you a mogul you ever thought about I go by Tony, okay? Yeah, I ain't say to change the whole album Think about that I did Watch on the album life is beautiful
Starting point is 01:00:24 Chains chains came up with that one, right? Yeah, because honestly the song that Larry did, Life is Beautiful, I really love that song. I really love that song. I love the context, the content of it. And then when I thought about it, and obviously I thought about it before the... Because I thought about the LA fires as well because I got homes in LA. And so I was like But any of them affected? Nah man, God is good
Starting point is 01:00:49 I'm trying to sell one y'all so I'll let me But I said it to say that I didn't want to be offensive to somebody whose life wasn't beautiful at the time But I kind of just overrode my opinion on that and I just brought it to the guys I think we should call life is beautiful because I think if you just got life, period, you know what I'm saying? If you just got life, period, that's best what I was trying to like, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:01:13 Pinpoint right there. Right, now you did meet- Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered who or what was flying around up there? We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons and birds, but what if there's something else, something much more ominous that appears under the cover of night, silent, unseen, watching?
Starting point is 01:01:37 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.
Starting point is 01:01:59 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. Why would you do that to me when I thought we were friends? We are friends. Why would you do that to me when I thought we were friends? We are friends. Los Angeles, 2021. A friendly neighbor appears out of nowhere and promises to make all my dreams come true.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Let's not forget that David Blum was a professional con artist, so you didn't stand a chance. But my dreams soon turned into a nightmare. Blum generally targeted people with money. And I was not alone. He took over a hundred people for over 15 million dollars. One of the victims was his own grandmother. I was married to David for almost ten years. It was insane. I was barely functioning and I just had this realization that he will not stop until he kills me. Getting a con artist to pay for their crimes isn't easy.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Charge David Blum! I'm Caroline DeMore. Listen as I take down my scammer on Once Upon a Con on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, and my latest episode is with Bill Gates. This is a world where somebody can have over $100 billion. What is that? These fortunes are almost illegitimate unless in a very smart way given back.
Starting point is 01:04:34 One of the biggest names in business tech and philanthropy. Exploring and investing in innovative solutions to some of the world's toughest problems. Bill Gates. Starting with Microsoft where I had monomaniacal focus, giving up weekends and vacation wasn't some big sacrifice. I loved it. I've always underestimated how incredible my father was. He would say, hey, I'm sorry I worked so hard. I'd say, no, no, that was fine.
Starting point is 01:04:59 I feel lucky that he lived as long as he did. It brings tears to my eyes because he was incredible. Do you remember one of the final conversations you had with him? Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. The Grams. Originally was that a gospel record? Was it supposed to be a gospel record? The samples is from a gospel record, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:24 Yeah, the sample was. do you feel people make your? Beats like this record. It happens a lot to me It does happen to you like 50 over the animal thing back then and it was a bang bang And I become like I want to be Switzerland really I try to tell the rappers. Hey, I'm Switzerland like leave me out of it You know, I don't but they end up making me the battleground. I mean, I'm indifferent to it. It's like I don't have a dog, you know what I'm saying? So it's like I make beats. Do people get mad at you though?
Starting point is 01:05:50 Because sometimes, I know you're like, but look, here's the beat. I don't know, I'm not sure for sure. But you know, in that case, I had sent the record to die like months before that happened. And like I heard it when everyone else heard it. So it was like, yeah, that was one of them situations where it was like, I don't like to get involved in stuff.
Starting point is 01:06:06 But sometimes it happens. It was tricky during the time when P and Maudeep and Nas had me for Jay. It was always a weird thing. It would probably stop me from doing work with Jay back then. You know what I mean? Wasn't we going to make it for Jay-Z? It wasn't for him.
Starting point is 01:06:20 I played it for him, though. Hip hop, you know, Campbell has been my brother a long time. And I used to go over there and play beats. And one time he popped his head in. He just checked it out. It wasn't for him, I guess. 2 Chainz, why did you lie to Drake about being good? Hendrix said, 2 Chainz said you good, but he lied.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Why, why, why, why you do that? I just think it was kind of like some word play because Drake and I got a song called No Lie. And so when he said he lied, I just felt like, I don't know. But I didn't take it as no kind of way. I don't think he was taking a shot at me. I've heard all type of instances where somebody want me to say something back.
Starting point is 01:06:59 I just think it was a moment where it was about Atlanta artists. I do have a couple of plaques with Drake, probably three or four plaques with Drake. So I think a lot of that people in that verse got it with them. So that was just Kempcher's way of just dialing in on some subject matter.
Starting point is 01:07:16 The people who named me didn't say it felt some type of way. You know what I'm saying? So I was okay with it. You know what I'm saying? You got other Atlanta artists like me at home. You know, so I don't. That's a little baby, little baby's a hand. He said, keep me out of that.
Starting point is 01:07:28 I don't want my name mentioned. Yeah, some people didn't want their name. Some people was like, why you didn't say my name? And it just, you know, like it's just a moment. It was just a moment. But it didn't do nothing to me. I know, I think my harmony, my middle kid definitely says somebody asked that school, but it didn't get hacked.
Starting point is 01:07:45 It wasn't. I don't care about it. I ain't here for it. What you eat? I'm just gonna drop it. Will Larry be under the sun? You ain't never heard nothing like this? No, I didn't hear no name.
Starting point is 01:07:53 No, he said, we do the line up line. The last verse. Yeah, two chains and he good, but he lying. Really? No, I didn't hear that full song. That was just like climbing. What, on purpose? Like you repping for the light skins?
Starting point is 01:08:04 You like, I refuse to listen to this regular music? I'm repping for the light skins. It's crazy. song. Yeah, because I never heard the full song. What on purpose? Like you repping for the light skins? You like, I refuse to look at this brand. I reppin' for the light skins. It's crazy. I f*** with everybody. I just didn't particularly hear that song fully. I heard a lot on Instagram and stuff like that. I was doing an album with him at the time, so I wasn't really listening to too much s***
Starting point is 01:08:17 though like that. But Kendrick, salute Kendrick. He horrid. Respect the Kendrick. I just didn't know he brought you up. That's crazy. You never heard that last verse? By the way, it's a phenomenal last verse. I did see people comment on the picture. I kept didn't know he brought you a look, okay You never heard that last person by the way phenomenal last person on the picture like kept saying like that What they talking about I did see that but I've never heard it's great, but you know what it is
Starting point is 01:08:34 You know it is not a lot of songs with three verses. Oh, it's three verses. So it's three birds It's the third you know me that's my opinion, I don't think. It's a big song. A lot of songs these days are just one verse. Yeah, I don't believe you, Larris. I don't believe you didn't hear that one song. That was my night skewer, man. I didn't hear that song. That's one of everything I love. Yeah, nah, he not a cat liar. He in his own bubble, that's why I love it.
Starting point is 01:08:54 Wayne, that's why I love him. Me, that's why I love me. You know what I'm saying? I just be in my own bubble. I mean, of course I know some of the things I need to know, but I really be clueless to a lot of stuff, and I'm cool with that. I'm just cool with that. You hear when Kend when Kendrick dissed you on the floor first?
Starting point is 01:09:16 All right well we appreciate you guys for joining us. Make sure you pick up that album Life Is Beautiful out right now. Larry June, Two Chains and Alchemist we appreciate you. It's the Breakfast Club, good morning. Jess with the Mess is up next. Your news is real, brother. My name's Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying. Jessica Robin Moore.
Starting point is 01:09:32 She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coacheship. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it on. Lauren sent me the Wendy Williams doc to watch at 4 a.m. and said, sis, it went up.
Starting point is 01:09:59 We got to watch. You must not have a baby. You should know it. She don't know what it's like to wake up at 4 a.m. with a five month old baby. Molly looking at me like, we about to watch Wendy? I'm like, no. So tell me what I needed to watch that was so important. Okay. So the Wendy Williams doc that TMZ did on Tubi, it's called Saving Wendy Williams, dropped today and they got into a ton of stuff.
Starting point is 01:10:23 But most importantly, because it just talks about, you know, her getting out of conservatorship, people have been trying to figure out how she got into this conservatorship to begin with. And what what's the issue with her family, her son and why that didn't work out. So let's take a listen to Wendy talking about her son in Wells Fargo. In September of 2022, Wells Fargo, your bank, said you were the victim of undue influence and financial exploitation with respect to your money. Who is the person that was doing this? My son is a good person, but at this point, he is a horrible person to me. And what's going on with these other people at my apartment in Miami?
Starting point is 01:11:06 What are you doing? Oh, you spent on what? And what is going on at Wells Fargo? There was a situation where Kevin says he wanted to rent a boat for his birthday for $1,500 and ended up getting a boat that rented out for $113,000. And he blamed it on the bank, that the bank wanted him to have that. That never really made sense to me. You want me?
Starting point is 01:11:35 Is he, is Kevin rap too tight? Like what's the... It's not that he's about to say that's Kevin rap. No, I'm saying, no, no, I'm saying he balling like he rapping, but I'm saying like, is like he rapping but I'm saying like is he like it makes no sense right all or yeah like what do you mean the bank wanted you to have a hundred thousand dollars for both. I have no idea they didn't really get more into what that statement was that he that
Starting point is 01:11:58 Harvey said that he made. Is Kevin on the dock? Little Kev is not on the dock and they say that he does deny all of everything that is being alleged But he can't do the doc because of however the the conservatorship or guardianship is set up He's not able to come on camera and speak So maybe the bank did a good call by making sure that her money is protected and people are not just spending her money Right. Well you make a good point because Wendy gets into that as well because there were things happening with people that were around Kevin in Wendy's money to let's take a listen to that. Somebody pretended to be me and it wasn't anybody in my family. It happens to be a person that I was introduced by my son and it's a woman
Starting point is 01:12:35 approximately my age group. It's nobody from the family. Listen this woman called on the phone pretending to be me. Red flag, Wells Fargo, red flag, red flag. And so red flag, thank God, they stopped all of the money that had been stolen from me by these people. They don't got nobody else can score these things. What is this music? Damn. The music be making everything sound so crazy.
Starting point is 01:13:01 So deep and so dark and so... We can't get the Alchemist to score Scordes Metro booming somebody is TMZ. Okay, it's not as much seasoning over there. All right. My God, but yeah, so envy out to your point. Wendy at that point said when all that was happening, she was like, wait the bit like hey bank come on in here. I might need y'all and that's how she ended up in this
Starting point is 01:13:23 conservatorship situation. She talked about not really understanding what a conservatorship was and how it worked and then boom now she's in here, I might need y'all. And that's how she ended up in this conservatorship situation. She talked about not really understanding what a conservatorship was and how it worked. And then boom, now she's in this, you know, what she calls a luxury prison. So it seems like she set these guardrails up for herself and wanting to make sure that what was happening with her money, because she said in the doc, her family don't get into her money and she don't get into theirs. And it's always been that way. She thought she was putting protection in place for herself because things were happening. She loves her son, but things were happening. Now she does also talk about the A&E documentary. Not she doesn't, but they talk about it in the
Starting point is 01:13:54 Tubi documentary because they talk about the fact, Charlamagne, you brought this up before of where was the Guardian during all this time? Now you have this lawsuit. Let's take a listen. There are some people who say the main reason the Guardian is being so restrictive is that the Guardian took a lot of heat for allowing Wendy to do that Lifetime documentary when she was under the influence of alcohol and the Guardian wasn't there to protect her when it was being filmed. And this is an overreaction to that. I would be disappointed in that guardian that she's punishing Wendy for her lack of oversight. All of this happened under the watch of the guardian who was there to protect my aunt.
Starting point is 01:14:36 When all of this comes out, the person at the center of this in terms of having the final say and the sign off is the Guardian. I don't think it takes a whole lot to put the pieces together here with that. Oh, that was Alex. Alex. Yeah, that was Alex. And Alex Finney. Yeah. So now that I think that part is crazy to me because if that is the case, right. And that will come out. I did reach out to Robbie Kaplan, who is the attorney for the Guardian
Starting point is 01:15:02 in the Annie lawsuit to figure out like, they gonna say something in response to that? Cuz if that is the case, that's crazy That's not Wendy's fault that she didn't have the foresight to see a lot of these things Yeah, but it's obvious if you if you are the Guardian and then you're complaining that you know people took advantage of her during this Whole situation where was you right? Yeah, now they get into a lot of other stuff in the in this doc as well too They talk about her having a sober coach after and how her life's gonna be after. It's definitely worth the watch.
Starting point is 01:15:28 Well, we don't want people to lose focus that, you know, the documentary is about how she got into this guardianship in the first place. Yes, 100%. And I think it does a good story of showing she just needed help and she thought she was saving herself and it completely went the wrong way. It shouldn't have went this way. Now moving on to the next thing. thing Jess we were talking about this earlier the Yo! Mama B and Broom are with us too, yes? No, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not,
Starting point is 01:16:06 not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, his photos hanging out. Now at the time when they did that first run of the album, there were rumors that they were dating and there was something lovey-dovey there, never confirmed. But now you know he's with DeAndrea Sanders and people have been commenting on his post
Starting point is 01:16:32 like yo, what's up? Like where's your where's your wife? Why is she not with you when this was a person that you allegedly used to have a little situation with? Right. That's the crazy thing, right? As an artist, you know what I mean? Like I know sometimes things can happen for like promotion or publicity stunts, but when you out here doing interviews about your real life and you saying that you about to get married to the person that just had your baby and all of that, that kind of messes with publicity stunts like this. You know what I mean? And then your girl ain't too happy
Starting point is 01:16:58 about it because she wasn't in on the stunt. Oh, no, she commented on stuff and she said she wasn't allowed to be in the pictures and things of that nature because they love was it intimidated date. So so Deondra has been taking some shots online, including taking a shot at his mom. I will say though, I reached out to a source close to the situation because I said, if I could only report this is a public publicity site. I'm gonna be pissed. And they told me this is not a publicity site. In real life, she is upset. Wow. Damn. And what happened with the mother real quick? We ain't got enough time. What'd he say about the mother?
Starting point is 01:17:27 Oh, real quick De'Andre just told her mom, his mom to mind her business and you need to say thank you because I've been putting Jacquees on. Allow her to go on my dad's show. Don't make me talk about how you allegedly stealing your son money and hiding your son money. I'm gonna be quiet now. I'm sorry. I'm gonna go back in my bubble.
Starting point is 01:17:42 To sum up what De'Andre has been saying. Jesus. Straight at the mom. Crazy. bubble to sum up with Deon has been saying Jesus straight at the mom Crazy, but to be fair his mom started it. She posted it. She posted an interview talking about the situation So she jumped out there. Yeah, okay. All right. Well that is just with the mess and that's that's a good conversation You know, would you mind if your man or your woman was working with their ex? Like would you have a problem right? If because they allegedly dated before they allegedly had relations would you mind? This closely working with them. Correct would that be a thing? We'll talk about it after donkey.
Starting point is 01:18:12 Shalimar what you got for donkey today? Oh man I need a political analyst named Dominique Trippi to come to the front of the congregation. He has some interesting things to say about Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime performance. Alright, we'll get to that next. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is a miracle. There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community. Yes, you are a dog. The latest on that police killing of a black man. Now the new developments in the deadly
Starting point is 01:18:42 spashooting rampage. It was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency. OK, white supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. To the breakfast club, bitches. All right, Charlene, please tell me,
Starting point is 01:19:01 why was I your donkey of the day? Well, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, February 12th goes to a political analyst named Dominique Tripp. He is a political analyst, writer, strategist and commentator. The homie Robin at Baller Alert sent me this today. Drop on the clues, bombs for Robin at Baller Alert. What's up Robin? What's up Robin? I missed this one, but it's hilarious. See, Dominique about a week ago from what I can see posted on X this statement
Starting point is 01:19:25 He said and I quote we must rid ourselves of DEI Throughout every facet of society for the sake of our safety and that of our children my god now I know people had issues with DEI But when you say we have to get rid of DEI for the sake of our safety and that of our children That sounds like to me like you have a fear of a black and brown planet. All right diversity means that you not safe. The browning and blacking of America means that you not safe. The inclusion of more women, more gays, anyone who isn't a straight white male means you not safe.
Starting point is 01:19:58 Why are we as a people so hell-bent on making each other uncomfortable? Okay let me ask you a question Dominique. Have you ever stopped to think how those of us from marginalized communities feel when we are the only one? When you are the lone minority amongst the majority? Have you Dominique ever seen that and said, I wonder if they feel unsafe? Why do we start getting concerned about safety when it's spaces where white folks aren't the majority?
Starting point is 01:20:25 Dominique, have you ever thought about that? I'm sincerely asking. See, nobody ever cares about the one raisin in the potato salad. You know why? Because there shouldn't be no damn raisins in the potato salad. Okay? And that is why we are here today. Because Dominique said a week ago, we must rid ourselves of DEI throughout every facet
Starting point is 01:20:42 of society for the sake of our safety and that of our children. But this week after watching Kendrick Lamar's record-breaking Super Bowl performance, highest rated halftime show ever, drop one of Clu's bombs for Kendrick Lamar and Roc Nation. After watching that performance Dominique posted on X and I quote, hundreds of dancers and participants in this halftime show and they can't manage to feature one single white person? This is pathetic.
Starting point is 01:21:12 Dominique, you got to make up your mind. You told us we have to get rid of diversity, equity and inclusion in all facets of society. But when you see a black artist headlining the Super Bowl with a bunch of black dancers, now all of a sudden you want diversity and inclusion This is why I loved Kendrick's show aesthetically 10 out of 10 for aesthetics because I knew it would get these types of reactions out of people But if you gonna piss people off, let's really piss them off
Starting point is 01:21:39 I wish he would have added to the setlist just three songs actually four including money trees But that's just a personal favorite But these three if he would have started because of the aesthetic of that show if he would have started with black at a berry Can you imagine hearing this on the super bowl stage? What would dominique have said if you would have heard this? I'm african-american i'm african i'm black is the moon heritage of a small village part of my residence Came from the bottom of mancon my hair is nappy my nose is big my nose is rounded wide you hate me don't you you hate my people your plan is to terminate my culture you need for i want you to recognize that i'm a proud monkey and then what if you went into what have you went into this
Starting point is 01:22:23 All's my life I has to fight Right after black at a berry? All's my life I, hard times like ya Bad chips like ya Nazareth, I'm homie you But if God got us then we gon' be alright Dominique is clutching these girls to him Then, then, then Samuel L. Jackson comes out and tells him stop You're scaring America, you're scaring people like Dominique
Starting point is 01:22:46 You and your little homeboys gotta play it safe This the Super Bowl, not Compton And as soon as you heard not Compton, then you heard this If I rules and grips, all I got alone They probably cut me down by the end of the song Sing like the whole city gonna kiss me Every time I'm in the street I hear Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!
Starting point is 01:23:08 People like Dominique heads literally might have exploded. Donald J. Trump would have signed an executive order on Monday to bring back slavery in the middle of Black History Month. Okay, listen, my point is this. Dominique, it's cool when they do do it it's a problem when we do it all right white artists have headlined everything for years and Dominique I bet you've never said is too many white people participating in this show because whiteness to you is America and that's one of the messages Kendrick was displaying in his show that black people are America not only are we America well first of all that's why the brothers had on the red white and blue and they were up there looking like the American flag because we are America okay
Starting point is 01:23:46 he was letting you know we are all Americans it should have made you proud Dominique not to mention black people built this country. African-Americans built this nation. I want to make sure about that. Stop that Eddie. I said black people built this country I was doing a dramatic pause Now don't listen to me listen to your president African Americans built this nation We built this nation You know, you're just starting to get real credit for that. Okay. I don't know if you know that
Starting point is 01:24:20 You're just starting to get you built the nation We all built it but you were such a massive part of it bigger than you were given credit for does that make sense right? And so Kendrick was on the Super Bowl stage making sure black people get that credit the moral of the story is this you are Either part of the solution or you are part of the problem if you looked at Kendrick's performance And you saw others and not Americans then guess what you are indeed the problem please let Chelsea Handler give Dominique Trippie the biggest hee haw Give back! Hee haw! Hee haw! That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise! Chelsea acting black being all late
Starting point is 01:25:08 Ayo Ayo Alright, you ain't got no more? Alright That's all I got Why? What you worried about? Cause I mean you got a bunch of them that give the biggest mayo and all that I thought you was gonna go all the way with it
Starting point is 01:25:24 Nah I think Chelsea's Chelsea's she had Chelsea's supplies that's all we need all right no more confusion no thank you for that donkey today we won't go you said yes I want your mind oh no I actually don't have anything on my mind I just wanted something I just wanted to share something with the people you know you know when we come you know we do things for our own personal benefit and you know when those things benefit us personally, we like to share them with listeners,
Starting point is 01:25:48 especially if it's something that we feel can make their life better. We come in here and we talk about getting colonoscopies. And Soren Medical. We've been to Soren Medical. The benefits of cardiovascular health. Correct. We talk about going to therapy all of the time.
Starting point is 01:26:03 Correct. For your mental health. I did something yesterday that I had never done. Remember what I told you I was going to do just when we were going to the elevator and you told me not to do it? You bent over? Shut up. No, he's done that. No, you did it. I went to do it. I, yesterday, had a Brazilian wax. How did you feel? I feel so light, guys. Listen to me. What was

My brothers, you gotta step it up. I know we've been manscaping. Alright and you know you get your all right and you know The pain is worth it though. I wish I could show you it, but it's not for you. But I'm telling my brothers out there, go get you a Brazilian wax. I'm 46 years old, the hair grows a lot different, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:27:12 And it grows in weird places now. It's not as easy to manscape. I was like, you know what? My wife got this great person she goes to get wax from, let me go get the wax. Top tier. Purient. Top tier.
Starting point is 01:27:23 And I got it all, I got that. I don't got no hair on my cheeks, but the got it all, I got that. Pretty smooth. I don't got no hair on my cheeks, but the butt crack hair, gone. Crazy. Scrodom hair, gone. It's probably real cute name. It is amazing.
Starting point is 01:27:32 I looked at it yesterday like, wow, where have you been? Hello. How did you look at it? Did you spread your cheeks, look behind you in the mirror? He did. No, when they did the,
Starting point is 01:27:40 I don't know what it looks like from the back, but. Okay. Front is amazing. Yeah. Front is amazing. So, I can't be the only brother out there because Oh no, absolutely you're not the only brother in the OX. That's right. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:27:51 Veronica told me that yesterday. She was like, guys come and do this all the time. You're late. Absolutely. And she said it'll be easier the next time. Yeah, that's how it is for us too. Like it gets easier as you do it. When did you get your first wax, Jess?
Starting point is 01:28:02 When I was like 24. Wow. And it lasts so long. Yo, you ain't gonna have to go back until maybe about what? Two or three months? She said maybe like six weeks. Every six weeks.
Starting point is 01:28:14 Damn, you grow. All right, well maybe it grows. You gonna say he hairy. He hairy. Yeah, it lasts. Sometimes it makes it. So what is the question? I just wanna know, I just wanna make sure
Starting point is 01:28:23 I'm not alone, just like anything else. I know I'm not alone, but I like to hear from any people So many men will call up here like yeah, man ain't nothing wrong with that like yes, it'd be serious I I trim I use clippers. I got a Texas right now my man was like I got a wax before that s hurt like hell Hey, don't you ain't never told me five five one on five one. So let's discuss.

You know, he was the first person to tell us about, you know, he gets his prostate checked every couple of months. And not every couple of months. His colonoscopy once a year.
Starting point is 01:29:39 Listen, you can make all the jokes you want, but when die early okay who thought that's gonna be the reality the situation is yes I'll go get colonoscopies I'd go get all my cardiovascular health checked and just literally I just like doing things to better me so I'm 46 years old right and like the hair on my pubes grows crazy it grows very differently it's all on the side of my legs I never had that when I was younger So the manscaping just getting the scissors and trimming isn't enough. So my wife always goes to get whacked. There's no scissors You can whatever it is Clippers, it still don't do what it's supposed to know. I'm going with the clip is not look good. It's sexier
Starting point is 01:30:20 It makes your skin look smoother and then listen, let me tell you something just speaking as a woman Well, we are going down on you guys and giving you know proper fellatio We don't want to smell you know hair holds so much bacteria and you don't even got to be dirty Listen, but it's you know sweat gets trapped in the follicles. That's right everything. You know what I mean? Like so that's I love that. I love that. I love a bald man down there so I got a Brazilian wax yesterday from the root rooted to the to the front and the back and First of all, my penis looks amazing You know saying I had the gray hairs popping up down there the same reason you get the Beijing in your bed
Starting point is 01:30:53 Envy is the same reason that you probably should go get you a Brazilian wax I don't have no hair down there, but I don't get a Brazilian. You don't have no hair on it? Your pubes is sick. Crazy. You pay Jing your pubes in there? That's wild. I don't have, but I don't get a Brazilian. The Brazilian wax is amazing. Veronica did a good job. It hurt because it was my first time.
Starting point is 01:31:14 It's 46 years ahead. Who held your hand while you got it done? You can always, just you and the person doing it. But you know, it's like, the thing that made it so dope is that like everything is bald. Like your butt crack. Okay, we get it. Bald, sprotum's bald. And it was quick, wasn't it? It took your butt crack Okay, we get it. It was it took about 15 minutes. Yeah, it took about but only cuz it was my first time You know, I mean she said that it'll be quicker next time and it'll be easier next time
Starting point is 01:31:33 It's a minute and what was his name that did it? Her name was Veronica salute to Veronica There's a very vulnerable thing that you're doing You know I'm saying especially when she tell you to lay on your stomach and you know saying you got spread your leg and she Go up in your cheeks. I ain't got no hair on my ass. So you poke you you to lay on your stomach and you know I'm saying you got spread your leg and she go up in your cheeks I ain't got no hair on my ass to you pull you what she did you got on your knees and Spread your legs all right little tutor Charles Charles. What are you calling from? Talk to me Charles
Starting point is 01:32:02 Definitely keep a very clean hygiene, you know, get the nails done, some gel manicure, fanscaping and all that. I just don't understand all, like, either reasoning behind the whole Brazilian wax. You know what I'm saying? Like, what is the point of, you know, like a man getting all that for somebody to be old back then?
Starting point is 01:32:19 Why, that's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. How old are you? I'm 29. Well, see, you younger. When you get to be our age, I can only speak for me, 46, the hair started growing a little crazy.
Starting point is 01:32:30 Like, the regular manscaping things that I was doing wasn't, you know, keeping things contained. And so, you know, the waxing treatment that removes all the pubic hair and the hair around the anus and the upper thighs, it's worth it. Hey, yeah. See, that's what I was gonna say. I was gonna say that from 70s to the 1900s type of stuff like that
Starting point is 01:32:49 from the 90s to the 1900s you heard? don't worry when you get to be our age you're gonna remember this you're gonna be like damn Charlamagne told me that it was gonna start looking like the wild wild wilderness down there yep nah I'm good with the manscaping I'm completely bored and I ain't waxing hello who's this? what's up man my name Nick man how y'all doing? What's up Nick? What's up Nick? So you got some questions for Charlamagne go.
Starting point is 01:33:10 Yeah man so I ain't never I ain't never man scaped or nothing like that but um I feel like I would try at the second of day. I used to go sometimes get my nails done with my female friends I don't want to uh you know incriminate myself but the hustle I had, I had multiple women in my life, and they don't get their nails done to go, you know, do they work, they even work in Las Vegas, and I get my nails done with them,
Starting point is 01:33:34 I just give them clear coats, sometimes I wouldn't get nothing, I just get them, you know, cut and then get my feet done. I don't do the clear coat, I do a buff though. Yeah. You see, I get all the buffing, but every once in a while I just clear coat them, because the ages, they come so fast, they want the extra money, we go clear coat, clear code I do a buff though yeah okay I got you I never did I'm 40 now so I mean I don't know about man because I'm pretty sure it probably what hurt but I want to know
Starting point is 01:34:11 I don't know if you can wax your dome. I mean for me I don't know. Oh you do. Okay. They saying yeah, I've never done that. I just you know, I just get the straight razor Okay, are you gonna laser next what you foot? No, I'm not doing a laser but you you 40 you getting up there I don't know what your situation is down there in your pants but the pubes are gonna start to get a little wilder after 45 and you probably gonna need to get a little Brazilian wax that's all I'm saying and then also for the behind like yo when I think it's fine that you did from the rudder to the tutor because when you are when you are doodoo or whatever and you wipe that's why you got to keep wiping until you don't see nothing because it's getting
Starting point is 01:34:43 cold on the hair so when you pass gas now does it whistle? First of all I don't fart in my clothes. That's number one. Listen, Jess is not lying. The wipes since yesterday is smooth. Crazy. Smooth. 800. Smooth. 585. 105.1.
Starting point is 01:35:00 The Brazilian wax is worth it. I'm telling you. Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered who or what was flying around up there? We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons and birds. But what if there's something else, something much more ominous that appears under the cover of night, silent, unseen, watching. 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.

Like, what was on your mind when you'd be like, you know, I could wax this and make some bread. No, he waxes everybody, not just men. Right, you only do, you don't always do men.

You need to have somebody, a great barber. You need to have people giving you Brazilian waxes. You need to be getting your nails done. You can make sure your car clean two and three times a week. Now Kevin, this says that you enjoy going. You go as much as you can. Yeah, I mean, to be honest, I'm in Canada, so things are expensive.

Starting point is 01:42:54 There's nothing wrong with taking care of yourself, man. There's nothing wrong with self-grooming for the man. There's nothing wrong with that. That's the moral of the story. You're right, break it down. So what position do you have to do for them to do it? When they're doing the front, You right. Break it down. So what position do you have to do for them to do it? When they're doing the front, you're just laying on your back.

It's just a little painful because it was my first time doing it. And then when she does the back, you just lay on your stomach and she tells you to spread your legs and
Starting point is 01:43:25 then she goes up in there. Yeah I spread your cheeks too right? No, because I don't have no hair on my cheeks you just got inside of it and the back was actually easier than the front. The back wasn't painful. Oh the front be the one right? Yes ma'am. The back is like a breeze that's nothing.
Starting point is 01:43:42 You think it's going to hurt you build up all you got all this anxiety and strip off nothing like nothing The the front that is a little painful, but this is gonna be fine Yeah, next time you're gonna be so used to it and then we got balls So, you know when somebody putting them here I'm scrotum.

So Mandy Moore, she was going off on Amazon because she's saying that they delivered a package to her in-laws house in LA, right? You know how they deliver the package and they take the picture, they leave it out front of the door. Yes, you're supposed to do.
Starting point is 01:45:37 The only problem, y'all, and not to laugh because this is serious, but it's like, what is wrong with you? The house was burned down and the LA fires. They left the package in front of nothing, the great down rubble of my god. Yes So she posted person did that our drone did that? You never know these days it could be a damn person ain't no person It looked crazy the way they took the picture and everything in front of a burnt down house like it's so stupid So she posted that the photo of the the box in front of a burnt down house. It's so stupid. So she posted the photo of the box in front of the
Starting point is 01:46:05 home rusting on what is left of the steps in front of this property that isn't there anymore. She says, do better Amazon. Can we not have better discretion than to leave a package at a residence that no longer exists? This is my mother and father-in-law's home, shaking my head. She right, but she still got the package. No she didn't dummy. Ain't no house, ain't no people there. They sent you a picture when they were on delivery. And I'm sure she went to go pick the package up. She went to go get the package there? I would want my package, you want my choice? Yes, of course. No I definitely wouldn't go pick it up. She forgot to change the address. Yep on the Amazon account. I mean they got
Starting point is 01:46:41 a lot to think about and worry about. I didn't even think about that as well. Like people they're male or how they're getting their mail right now. Yeah, and they gotta change their address. Do drones take pictures? Um, yes, drones take pictures and videos. And this is the thing, who ordered it? Because if you knew you didn't have a house, you know. It could have been ordered weeks ago though.
Starting point is 01:46:57 Well, not no Amazons. Yeah, sometimes you want to stop on Amazon, you gotta wait till it gets in stock and then they send it out. It depends where it's coming from, it's not in Prime. Absolutely. So Amazon released a statement to People Magazine The spokesperson Steve Kelly said we've reached out to Mrs Moore via Instagram to apologize for this and asked for more information from her in-laws so that we're able to better Investigate what happened here for weeks
Starting point is 01:47:16 We've advised those who are delivering on our behalf in Southern, California to use discretionary areas that were impacted by the wildfires Especially if it involves delivering to a damaged home that clearly didn't happen here see a Mexican would never that's why the deportation thing is ruined and stuff already okay? I guarantee you the person who did that was either drone or not from Mexico No, I gotta be in a person you got a lot of dumbass people I am sure was a person to, trying to get a name. Just get their job done? Get views. No, not get their damn job done because
Starting point is 01:47:48 that's dumb. How are you going to get the views though if nobody knows you delivered it? Oh, I'm pretty sure they knew that was going to go viral. Me taking a picture of a package in front of a burnt down house like, come on, stupidity. Stupidity? Yeah, crazy. Anyway, because it's gonna make me mad. Go on to the next story. Beyonce got some pre-sale tickets.
Starting point is 01:48:09 Yeah, so the Cowboy Carter. We ain't broke enough already. Girl, the people is going crazy. When I say people are stressed because the pre-sale tickets dropped. So last night you were able to start buying the pre-sales. There's a bunch of different tiers of pre-sale, but the first one happened yesterday. And fans are stressed number one because there's so many people trying to get the tickets and the tickets are expensive. So there was one girl who posted,
Starting point is 01:48:33 she was in line in the queue and she was number 78,406. And she tweeted, it's too many people in this line. I thought y'all said the album was trash and y'all couldn't afford eggs. Why y'all said the album was trash and y'all couldn't afford eggs. Why y'all here? And then she went into Q2. What are you talking about? She can buy her. Oh, she's saying like, oh, I can afford it. Exactly. Like y'all had all this stuff to say.
Starting point is 01:48:55 You talk about eggs is $5, but y'all in here trying to spend your money on Beyonce tickets. Another person said, it's the fact that I really had a seat in the hundreds for $500 only for them to say the seat Was gone, but they found me a new seat in the same section the new seat price jumped to $1,300 for the rice Jesus fix it So yeah, the ticket prices seen on it. Yes She said y'all gonna pay for that rodeo. This gonna be a rodeo now.
Starting point is 01:49:25 Don't think that it's not gonna be a rodeo. You might get live animals and everything. You might get horses, all types of stuff. Unicorns. And these are not resale tickets. These are just the actual tickets. These are actual pre-sale tickets too. Ticketmaster did have to issue a statement too,
Starting point is 01:49:38 as far as the Beyonce Cowboy Carter Tour, because they were saying something about like, basically like just be aware, because there's so many people trying to get the tickets who won't be aware of people selling fake tickets Or telling you that they got free pre-sale options and things of that nature which always happens when it's a bit I have more like this on Yeah, but the girls are stressed about the cowboy Carter I think that this is one toward it and I didn't get to go see her the last the last
Starting point is 01:50:01 Renaissance tour I wanted to go to this one, but I You didn't go to Renaissance no I missed girl that was literally one of the best shows I've been to yeah like we were all of my group of friends went for my cousin's birthday and he said was the best show that ever been to I had stuff going on my family so I couldn't when they were going that was about to be broke because Valentine's is this Friday so you know mad people want to get their girl a ticket to go see Beyonce. No.
Starting point is 01:50:29 Good luck. Wait, if I ain't wearing silver, but if I wore gold, I'd stuck out like a sore thumb. I'm like, hey y'all, why y'all all looking the same? There you go. Pop that words as original. Wait, boyfriends in line for Cowboy Carter tickets is so cute. Like, I hope that is so adorable. You won't experience that.
Starting point is 01:50:47 Don't worry about it. Don't even worry about it. Y'all are so cute. Because I don't want to go to the Cowboy Carter tour. You know how long you can reach out and get some tickets boo. Thank you, Jess. And when I get them, I'm not taking y'all. But what if all three dudes that you got in queue for Valentine's Day all buy Beyonce tickets
Starting point is 01:51:03 for you? All three of them. Because they're listening to the radio right now Three that are running this marathon. Oh Now are you gonna let all three hit what's that? Don't we gotta wrap up wrap up something Oh god no, I'm not going to I'm high I am NOT going to the I'm saying my lord She cannot handle lines of questioning Soon as I hit her with what if all three dudes by Beyonce ticket she starts stuttering and fumbling just got quiet I don't know what you can't refuse. There's not like what first of all,
Starting point is 01:51:45 I do think that it takes more than one person to achieve getting these tickets. I'm not mad at anybody who decides to sign up and wait in a queue for anybody including a girl named Lauren, but I don't have three people of anything and I would appreciate if you stop saying that. Why? Because Valentine's Day is in less than 4872 hours and what does that matter if you don't have three? Why do care about she might got a potential she might got a Listen on three of them show everybody says support your career if you're dating them. All right, that is just with the mess Thank you, Lauren. You care about listenership or what? All right on God's work. Now when we come back I got people's choice mix we get to it. It's the breakfast local morning
Starting point is 01:52:23 Morning, everybody is DJ and theious, Charlamagne McGuy. We are the Breakfast Club. It's Black History Month. What we doing? Yes, it is Black History Month. And you know, every day during Black History Month, our guy B.Dot puts out a podcast on the Black Spec I Heart Radio podcast network called I Didn't Know Maybe You Didn't Either. And today he's going to talk to you about Biddy Mason.
Starting point is 01:52:41 Biddy was the original boss who went from enslaved to real estate mogul, proving you can turn oppression into opportunity and still have time to build churches and schools on the side. Listen, you ain't gonna hear about this in no history books, alright? But Biddy is the born in 1818, enslaved in Georgia. And listen, they didn't even give her a last name, just Biddy. It's like naming someone, hey you, the disrespect started at birth in those periods. Anyways, Biddy gets dragged across the country by her enslavers, ends up in California, and guess what, slavery was illegal there. But do you think her owner cared?
Starting point is 01:53:30 Of course not. Colonizer from the south pretty much acted like he was immune to the California laws. Now Biddy, with no last name, could have stayed quiet. But nah, she was a black woman. You know that wasn't happening. She went to court. And y'all, in 1856,56 she won her freedom and her kids freedom. Now let's just pause on that for a second. A black woman in the 1850s standing up in court and winning. That's a boss chick before
Starting point is 01:53:56 a boss chick was ever even a thing. But wait, it gets better because after she got free she didn't just chill with it. You know what I'm saying? Biddy was out here working as a nurse and a midwife stacking paper. Biddy saved up and bought land in Los Angeles for $250 and that land grew into a fortune worth $300,000. That's millions on millions of dollars today. Basically she became Don Peebles of real estate before Don Peebles in real estate. And what did she do with all that money on? Did she buy a yacht? No. Did she start flexing on TikTok? No. She gave back. She built schools, helped feed the homeless, and started the first African Methodist Episcopal Church. That's right. Biddy was out here being Oprah before Oprah. So why don't we know her name?
Starting point is 01:54:45 Why are you today years old when you found out about Biddy? Well, probably because history books be like, man, we can't have her outshining the founding fathers. But we need to talk more about her because Biddy Mason is proof that no matter where you start, you can change the game and help others along the way. So next time somebody asks you for a black history fact, hit them with Biddy Mason.
Starting point is 01:55:05 And when they say, who's that? Look, I'm dead in the eye and say, I was listening to I Didn't Know Maybe You Didn't Neither. And I found out she was the original CEO of Glow Up Incorporated. And I didn't know maybe you didn't either. I didn't know. All right, happy Black History Month.
Starting point is 01:55:23 That's right, and make sure you subscribe to the I Didn't Know Maybe You Didn't Need the podcast on the Black Effect iHeartRadio Podcast Network.
