Six seconds left and then they lose.
Damn.
You know, one thing we know about light-skinned people,
they tend to get excited a little too soon.
Oh, I see.
And then, you know, usually when they get excited a little too soon,
they just, you know, got to get hit with a dose of reality.
So, you know, Nick's got hit with a dose of reality last night.
You got hit with a dose of reality last night.
Drake got hit with a dose of reality yesterday.
He sure did.
Why does everything got to be light-skinned versus dark-skinned? I know. I don't know, but I love it. I mean, I'm going to be honest with a dose of reality yesterday. He's so dead! Why's everything gotta be light skin
versus dark skin? I don't know, but I love it.
I mean, I'm gonna be honest with you. I love it.
I loved the last month of
Ross calling Drake white boy. I love
Kendrick questioning Drake's blackness because of his
heritage, you know?

We are the Breakfast Club.
The radio's not built for six-minute, 22-second songs.
No.
No.
But we got a battle, ladies and gentlemen.
Yes, we do.
We'll discuss.
We'll discuss later.
But let's get in some front-page news.
Quickly in sports, the Cavaliers beat the Magic 104-103.
The Bucs beat the Pacers 115-92.
And like I just told you, the 76ers beat the Knicks last night in overtime.
I'll tell you something.
I was sitting on the couch watching that game.
And then, you know, the brothers, we start, you know, sending off texts in the group chat about sports.
So I'm in the group chat.
I look down.
I'm like, man, I think the Knicks can go to the finals.
I'm like, you know, Davian Lillard and Giannis out for game five.
I'm like, they about to beat the Sixers.
I'm like, who can beat them?
I look up next thing you know in overtime. I'm like, how the hell did that happen? They was up like, who can beat them? I look up next thing they know in overtime.
I'm like, how the hell that happened?
They was up by six with like 25 seconds left or something like that.
What's his name?
Maxie hit two three-pointers.
One from the logos.
The other.
He got fouled.
I look down and text.
That's why texting is so dangerous.
That's why they tell you not to text and drive.
Because you miss.
I look down for just a moment just to text that and look up there was an overtime.
It was bad.
Also, Trump was back in court yesterday.
A Stormy Daniels lawyer didn't give the prosecutors firework that will help them.
But Trump did get a fine because he violated the gag order.
Presiding Judge Juan Mershon found Mr. Trump in contempt for nine violations of his gag order.
Fined him $9,000.
Now, in the gag order, Trump was barred from, quote,
making or directing others to make public statements about known or reasonably foreseeable witnesses concerning their potential participation in the investigation or in this criminal proceeding.
I promise you, Donald Trump doing the math in his head right now.
He's like, OK, $1,000 per violation, $9,000.
I got a couple more to give.
I got a few more to give.
I can handle this.
OK. All right. Well got a couple more to give. I got a few more to give. I can handle this. Okay.

800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this? Yanisa.
Hey, Yanisa. Peace, Yanisa. How are you? I'm doing great today.
I want to talk about Mental Health Awareness Month.
Yes, ma'am. I repaired my mental health. I had a very
low time in my life and i
ended up getting therapy medication unfortunately that i actually just got off of but what i ended
up doing is exercising meditation doing yoga exercising every single morning even healthy
and i feel great this morning man i'm so happy to hear that absolutely i'm so happy to hear that we
actually have a great uh psychotherapist coming in later.
His name is Elliot Connie.
He focuses on
solution-focused therapy.
So he'll be in here
later on to talk to y'all
this morning.
I'm staying tuned.
Absolutely.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's up?
This is Shay.
Hey, what's up, Shay?
Get it off your chest, Shay.
Okay, so that cancer song
that y'all just played
with us,
y'all only like it because it's Kendrick.
If I got to close my eye and listen really, really hard to see who he's talking about, that's the one.
You got to close your eyes and listen real hard.
Yeah, the only reason y'all like it is because it's Kendrick.
Like, think about either.
The first thing that y'all said was FJC.
Yeah, I mean, the first thing Kendrick said is everything you say about me is true.
He just reversed it.
But I'm going to be honest with you.
This reaction doesn't surprise me.
Even when I saw Gilly say it was garbage.
I told y'all this two weeks ago when it comes to Kendrick.
In this era that we're in, whatever Kendrick does, I don't think people will appreciate it.
But you know what?
I don't agree with you because there's a you know what? I don't agree with you
because there's a lot of people
that just don't like Drake
and say Drake's record was trash
and that Kendrick is...
Well, that's silly.
And that's what I'm saying.
I don't like people like that either.
I like objective people.
Regardless of...
I'm a Kendrick fan.
And y'all know
I'm an OG veteran Drake hater.
But I'm going to give props
for props to this dude.
See, I'm a Drake fan
and I'm a Kendrick fan,
but I will say this.
It surprised me
that Gilly said it
because Gilly's a rapper. Yeah, I'm very surprised that Gilly said that. Yeah, because Gilly's a rapper. I heard a Drake fan and I'm a Kendrick fan, but I will say this. It surprised me that Gilly said it because Gilly's a rapper.
Yeah, I'm very surprised that Gilly said that.
Yeah, because Gilly's a rapper.
I heard a lot of rappers say that yesterday, too, but it's only because people don't want to think.
No, but Gilly's a rapper that was a ghostwriter, right?
So you would think Gilly plays with those words.
Gilly wasn't Mos Def.
He wasn't Talia Iqbali.
Gilly wasn't conscious. But it still wasn't that poetic. It wasn't Talim Kweli. Gilly. Yeah, but it still wasn't.
Gilly wasn't conscious.
But it still wasn't that poetic.
It wasn't as poetic as everybody's trying to make it.
It's just the beginning.
But Gilly says he wrote for Lil Wayne, right?
Lil Wayne was not a conscious rapper.
Lil Wayne got busy, though.
Lil Wayne is actually a guy who, he does get busy, but he has a lot of, he's a lot of
style over substance.
Correct.
In a lot of ways.
That's what I mean.
I was surprised that Gilly didn't like it, because I'm like, Kendrick is rapping his
ass off.
And people don't want people, that's not what people want i was just surprised but we don't
know what they want i was just surprised that he said it was corn on the cob correct like i'm not
gonna go that far even if you didn't like it how is it corny you say we don't know what people want
and by the way there's a lot of people love kendrick but in this era just think about what
we play on the radio just think about it that we don't play a lot of substance no we play sizzle
all day this is great but we don't play a lot of substance like let's not lie
to ourselves here people no like there's certain people that just know how to create the microwavable
junk food that people love to indulge in y'all y'all was mad because he took two weeks you
oh we shouldn't be on the clock no more he it's two weeks no i definitely was mad because they've
been beefing for years so if you you're going to set it, to me
Kendrick set it on like that. So I
thought that was a bait move. So when Drake came back,
you should have been right back at him.
Drake on the
clock now, but we already know Drake coming. So it's a
difference. I think
Drake will be ready in the next day or so.
Drake will be right back at it this week.
Absolutely. Alright, well get it off your
chest. 800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, Joe. This is me. What's who's this? Yo, this is me.
What's up, me? Get it off your chest.
That was real nasty work, y'all,
playing that attempted murder top of the morning.
But it had to be done.
You think that was attempted murder?
I don't think that was the kill shot at all.
That was a body. That was temple body.
You think that was a body?
I agree with you, brother.
What?
Show me. Come on.
I don't think that was the nuke.
I don't think Kendrick intended that to be the nuke.
That's why at the end of the record, he says, you know,
if that's what you want to do, I can go further.
Like, I don't think that was...
It was a body, and he didn't even mean to be a body.
He was rolling down, popping straight shots out the window,
and every one of them hit somebody on the corner.
Wow.
Yeah, I thought he was holding back a lot.
But let me ask you a question while we got you on the phone,
Meek.
Do you even think about it,
the fact that even when
Drake responded,
Drake just didn't respond
to Kendrick.
He responded to like
five individuals.
I mean, that's fair,
but Kendrick let it be known.
Like, who am I rapping?
And if it's just you,
you're getting whooped.
If it's you and your team,
you're getting whooped.
You can digitize
whoever you want. They're getting whooped too. That was a very slick line Kend you're getting whooped. You can digitize whoever you want,
they're getting whooped too.
That was a very slick line
Kendrick said.
Kendrick said,
this ain't a 20 v 1,
it's a 1 vs 20
if I gotta go against you
and your Ghost Riders.
Yep.
He said,
am I battling AI
and Ghost Riders?
Like,
that's,
some slick stuff in there,
guys and gals.
Hello,
who's this?
Hey,
good morning, man.
Peace and blessings.
Your boy is back.
Sean Stone,
what's up, man?
How the baby doing, bro? Good right man good morning good morning good morning peace
baby's keeping me up man i love the kids but they keeping me up man yeah she can't sleep sometimes
but you know hey this is my full-time dad man there you go that's what's up hey i want to talk
about that kid your remarks man what you think i about that Kendrick Lamar just man what you think
I think Drake
still winning man
okay why you
think that
and this is
why I feel like
this
I feel like
there's a lot of
rappers clicking up
trying to go at
Drake
but Drake is like
the LeBron James
of hip hop
at this moment
and he has so
many championships
and the fact that
Kanye West
K-Dot
Future
Metro Boomin they all clicking up to go at Drake it just shows you that Drake championship and the fact that Kanye West, K-Dot, Future, Mitchell Booman,
they're all clicking up to go to Drake.
It just shows you that Drake is one
of the best rappers out there. And that's
what it is. By the way, I hate that.
I do believe that LeBron is
Drake, but not for the... Drake is
LeBron, but not for the reason you just named. Because LeBron
definitely has clicked up to win
championships. Everywhere he's been
seen. What are you talking about?
We've seen him in L.A.
In Cleveland.
In Cleveland, yeah.
He's definitely clicked up to win championships.
And a lot of people have eaten in the LeBron era, sir.
Yeah.
Okay?
Yeah.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
And we'll discuss next hour.
We'll open up the phone lines and get your thoughts.
We'll play.
I mean, I don't think we can play another six-minute and 22-second joint, but we'll
play parts of it.
We got Jess with the Mess coming up.
What are we talking about?
Kendrick Lamar and everybody that responded to it.
Okay.
You look like you're ready to rap this morning.
You got your hat on backwards?
Right.
We'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club.
What's happening?
Let's get to Jess with the mess.
News is real, what is it?
The Lions, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lying.
Jess don't do no lying.
She don't spare nobody.
Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess.
On The Breakfast Club.
She's a coach and shit. 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 off.
So, no backstory needed.
We know that Kendrick, who's been a talk of the last 24 hours, came back at Drake after two disc records.
Push-ups and like that.
Oh, no, not like that.
It was push-ups and...
You talking about the J.I. record. TaylorMade. TaylorMade. That's what itups and like that. No, not like that. It's push-ups and... You talking about the J.I. record.
TaylorMade.
TaylorMade.
That's what it is right there.
And we're just going to get straight into the ball.
So the first line, we reversed it so people can understand what it means.
Woo!
She bought me a CD.
Everything they say about me is true.
So that line is from Richard Pryor in The Wizard of Oz.
So we remember that when a curtain had pulled back,
when he got exposed, he wasn't real.
You know, everything was like a facade or whatever.
So he's calling Drake the Wizard of Oz.
And then Kendrick said that he'd go YNW Melly on Drake and Cole.
So YNW Melly was charged with double murder of his two friends.
And also he mentioned, I thought the line was fire that he dropped
with the Pusha T line.
I thought that was pretty dope. I think all those bars were dope. I think the YNW M the line was fire that he dropped with the pusha t line yeah i think all
those bars were dope i think the ymeli line was dope the pusha p pusha t and both both the names
of terraces i think they would that was all dope absolutely uh kendrick hints that drake might be
snitching so gunna unfortunately got the reputation of being a snitch in the ysl rico case um and he's
alluding to the fact that he has some tea that drake uh be snitching so uh and then he makes it
clear that he is a hater.
Now, this is the thing.
Nobody ever wants to admit to being a hater.
I'm an OG veteran Drake hater.
Yeah, well, other than Charlamagne Tha God.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, because he was the first one to admit that he's a hater.
But I like how he did that.
When he says that Drake messes with women that, well, girls that mess, that confuse themselves with real women,
he's apparently referring to people whispering about Drake's alleged threat of dating underage girls.
He also claims he's speaking for the whole culture.
Kendrick claimed that Drake requested a verse from him.
And the song that he requested a verse on was First Person Shooter.
So Drake wanted it to be Kendrick, Cole, and him.
So, yeah. And then Kendrick Cole and him hmm
So yeah, and then Kendrick I think what he said I hate the way you well
I think that came from all when DMX was up here absolutely and DMX was saying he hated everything about Drake
I hate the way he walks. I hate his haircut. I hate it. I think that was a playoff for that
I thought that was pretty dope too. Yeah
Kendrick calls out the relationship with sexy red. This has got a lot of people talking as well.
He called this man a hoe.
Jesus.
I'm sorry.
It's a lot in there too. I mean, I didn't, you know, sending a cease and desist like that.
You know, he repurposed some Pusha T lines right there though. The whole sign to it.
That sign to it.
Yeah.
I mean, listen, we got a battle ladies and gentlemen.
Yeah, man.
You know, I like it a lot. Kendrick did repurpose a lot of things that we heard Pusha T say already.
He repurposed what Ross has been saying, calling Drake a white boy.
But I like the angle he took because Kendrick approached it as a healed, grown man.
He's saying Drake hasn't grown as an artist or a man.
When he says, I know they call you the boy, but where's the man?
Because I ain't seen him yet.
Like the whole record, he's painting Drake as an artist who's all style, no substance.
He even says it.
You make music to pacify people, while I make music to electrify people.
What I like was he was speaking on people writing for Drake.
He also called out Drake for using AI diss to diss him in the TaylorMade freestyle.
He had took shots at his son as well, but I ain't know if we had time to say that. I don freestyle um he had took shot at his son as well shots at his son
as well but i don't know if we i don't know if he took shots at his son i mean i'm sorry i'm sorry
he took shot at his parenting yeah we got time yeah see that right there that's just not raps
that's a psychological evaluation you're saying the man don't know nothing about being a real
father you don't teach your son to pray you're not giving your son tools to walk through life
you're not teaching them morals integrity discipline you're not teaching them to speak the truth and consider
what god is considering lord have mercy jesus so yeah no i'm sorry not shots at his son shots at
his parenting i mean to say yeah but i mean the song is is fire i mean i know a lot of people
argue that it's um that it was late but i don't know i think that little two weeks was worth it like i know in in today's time everything is supposed to be microwavable and you know things
like that an instant um but i think if we going off the type of rapper that kendrick is then
then i think two weeks is all right yeah i'm ready for i'm ready for more you know what i mean i feel
like you know kendrick could go could go a lot deeper because like i said earlier you know he did repurpose a lot of the same subject matter we've been hearing people say about Drake.
But I like the angle.
I like him approaching it as a hill-grown man, basically telling Drake, you need to grow up.
I think he also likes it because you like anybody going at anybody light-skinned, too.
It has nothing to do with that.
By the way, he's not going at his light-skinned complexion.
He's questioning Drake's blackness.
When he said, FUBU never been been in your collection you ain't never been for
us by us he's not he's not just questioning his complexion that's not just colorism he's saying
i don't believe you really black how many feet how many black features you're gonna do before
you feel black enough no and then a for us by us line the fubu line yo i i got that on the third
time i listened to it you have time to heal said you have Tom and Hill figuring out a collection. Yeah, right.
You know what I mean?
So I love it.
It's good.
It wasn't just a rap.
It was a psychological evaluation.
He's playing on what he believes to be Drake's insecurities.
And if you're a person who leads with ego,
if you are a narcissist, you hate being exposed.
I don't know if Drake is any of those things.
I don't know him like that.
But it's a great angle to take.
Yeah, it's a great angle to take.
But let me ask you a question.
The fact that Kendrick waited,
whatever it was,
two weeks or three weeks,
does that play into how you like the records?
No.
Because everybody was saying,
oh, you got two days.
He got four more days.
He got one more day.
But now he came out.
And I hate to say it,
but I'm from a place
where people took their time
to dissect these records.
Right.
Clearly, the time don't matter.
What have we been talking about for the past 10 minutes?
Yeah.
It would have been trending on social media.
But a lot of people have been saying that the time was the fact that they said that Drake won.
People are saying, talking about the time.
Clearly, the time don't matter.
If you can be objective about this situation and not be a Drake stan, a Kendrick stan, you can appreciate what both of them have done thus far.
This is going to be a great one.
That's right.
All right.
Well, that is just what the message.
And after Front Page News, we'll discuss more.
We'll take your phone calls and find out what you guys think.
And you can get on the phone lines right now, 800-585-1051.
But when we come back, we got to talk about more arrests on these college campuses.
I mean, These students are protesting
They're getting arrested
Some of them are losing
Their scholarships
Some of them won't get
A chance to graduate
So we'll talk about that
When we come back

That was a casual shot, you know.
That wasn't a photo shoot.
Well, let's get into some front page news.
I'm going to start off with some quick sports.
The Bucks beat the Pacers 115-92.
The Cavs beat the Magic 104-103.
And the Knicks lost last night 112-106.
They were actually up six with 58 seconds left.
Maxie came down and shot two threes, and it was just nasty.
But I don't know why they didn't call a timeout and foul and make him shoot two free throws instead of a three, but I'm not the coach.
All right.
Now let's talk about what's been going on on these college campuses.
I mean, so many students have been arrested.
Yesterday they took over a building in New York City, and the police were asked to step in to take that building back. More than 100 NYPD officers moved toward Columbia University,
pro-Palestinian demonstrators that were positioned right outside the university,
right outside the gates just behind us.
They were moved across the street where we are.
These barricades were moved closer to where we are and put in place.
These NYPD officers have been positioned here on the street,
just making sure no one makes their way across the street here toward the campus.
We have seen a couple of individuals
brought out in zip ties by officers,
and those protesters that were here all day
are still here watching this play out as we are,
watching this situation.
We saw a SWAT team as well make their way in.
Now, it's not just going down in Columbia University.
There's so many other universities.
It's about, I think, 30, 40 other universities.
Violence erupting on the campus of UCLA overnight.
Local reports say this began when hundreds of pro-Israel supporters
took on the anti-Israel protesters and tried to dismantle their encampment.
Let's take a look at the video here.
You see flashbangs. You see signs of pepper spray, fireworks being set off. It's also pretty
noisy at Arizona State University, where over 70 people have been arrested. Protests have also
erupted at Portland State University and perhaps taking a cue from the students at Columbia.
They have taken over the local library. They say they won't leave until their demands are met. So just give you a quick update.
Columbia University, 108 people arrested.
NYU, 120 people.
Cal Poly, three people.
University of South Carolina, 93 people.
Yale, 47 people.
University of Texas, 57 students.
30 people at North Carolina.
23 people at South Carolina.
Virginia Tech, 82 people.
Virginia Commonwealth, 13 people. Princeton Virginia Commonwealth 13 people Princeton University 13 people
These are all students
33 at Indiana
Northeastern 98
Washington University 23 students
Arizona State 69
University of Colorado Denver 44
Two men and University of Illinois
8 students at Minnesota
Emory 28 people 20 students there University of Illinois, eight students in Minnesota, every 28 people, 20 students there.
University of Georgia, 17. So as you can see, this is happening all over the country.
So kids are not playing. I said it yesterday, though.
You know, everybody has the right to peacefully protest and I respect everybody's right to peacefully protest.
But you still got to deal with the consequences of those actions.
Please know the rules. Please know the laws of, you know, wherever it is that you're protesting
because you may be arrested.
You know, you may fail class.
You may lose scholarships.
There is consequences to your actions.
That's right.
So you just got to be willing to deal with it.
All right.
And that is front page news.
Now, when we come back,
let's open up the phone lines.
800-585-1051.
Now, Kendrick finally released his diss record,
Euphoria.
It's six minutes and 22 seconds long.
We're going to get back on in a second.
We're just asking what your thoughts.
Who got it right now?
Is it Drake?
Is it Kendrick?
I don't know if anybody actually has it.
Like I said earlier, if you are an objective person and not a Kendrick stan or a Drake stan,
you can appreciate what both of these individuals have done thus far.
Both of them have showed up and delivered.
Drake showed up with push-ups.
He showed up with the TaylorMade record.
Kendrick showed up with Euphoria.
I like where this is going.
I like push-ups.
I really like push-ups.
But you can like both records though.
You can like push-ups, but you can also like Euphoria.
You can like push-ups and not like also like euphoria oh you can like push-ups oh yeah no no i do i was i was hyped for push-ups and i'm
just as like hype for you for you i just didn't like taylor me you didn't like you feel that way
too yeah i liked all three actually but we'll take your phone lines 800-585-1051 and the reason i
like telling me was i just like how he wrote like he was pop he wrote like he was snoop i just
thought it was it was a dope
record. But let's discuss.
That's also the reason people don't like it.
That's because he's not these people.
Yeah, because he's not these people. But let's discuss.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Pull out your phone. Call in right now.
Call me.
Add your opinion to The Breakfast
Club topic. Break it down.
800-585-1051.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Kendrick and Drake.
If you haven't heard Kendrick released Euphoria, we just played it.
So we're asking what your thoughts are as far as this battle
is going on. Do you have a winner so far?
What's your thoughts on
Kendrick's response? Let's start
with you, Jess. What you think? Like I said
before, I love Kendrick's
creativity and a lot
of people didn't like the jazz beginning,
the poetic style. I loved it. I know
everything means something. Everything is calculated.
I do like push-ups.
I did not like TaylorMade
and I love Euphoria.
So I just can't wait
to see what happens next.
But yeah, I like it.
Yeah, I thought Kendrick's
response was dope.
And I tell everybody
who says I don't like it,
I say listen to it again.
Yeah.
Because there's so many things
that you take out of it
that you got to pull out of it
because Kendrick,
when he writes,
he's not writing surface.
He's writing because he wants you to think. he's going deep and he's trying to cut
deep and i think that's what he did uh push-ups i think is dope too but i just think when kendrick
comes like that and he's rapping like that you got to take that man serious i always think about
and this is no disrespect when i heard naz and jay-z go back and forth like i think jay-z's second
was more emotion when he did the woke up this morning, I thought that was more emotion.
And I think Nas really pinned Ether.
And I think with this, I think...
Man, Ether was so emotional.
Are you crazy?
But he pinned that.
Ether is full of so many fifth grade insults.
You gay.
You suck D.
You look like a rat.
Compare Ether to TakeOver.
TakeOver was strategical.
TakeOver was surgical.
See, you did what most light-skinned dudes do, move the goalposts,
and went to the record that was kind of whack, which was super ugly.
It was.
You know, so you went to that.
But if you compare Takeover to Ether, Takeover is the better record.
But Takeover came out first, and then Ether was a reply.
Even though Takeover had more cultural impact.
But, you know, I like the Kendrick record.
I like a lot of the Kendrick record.
I like the subject matter, even though the subject matter, you know, he already got from Pusha T.
A lot of it he got from Ross.
But I really just like the fact that Kendrick approached it as a healed, grown man.
How is he healed and grown?
Because he's simply telling Drake that Drake needed to grow up.
He's saying Drake hasn't grown as an artist or a man.
He says, yo, you make music to pacify people.
I make music that electrifies people you know when he says the kid when he says the drake uh i know they call you
the boy but where's the man because i ain't seen him yet like he's literally painting drink as an
artist with all style and no substance and and i like that even when he comes at drake about
you know not being a real father i don't know if drake is a real father or not you know i mean but
just the way he approached that saying to drake, you know, you don't know nothing about
telling your son to pray.
You don't know nothing about
giving your son tools
But now you just said,
this man said a bunch of lies
and we don't know if this is true
or not though either.
I don't know if it is or not,
but he's saying that
based off their personas.
Kendrick has one persona,
which is the conscious brother
who gives you things.
We see Drake with his son.
Listen to what I'm saying.
I'm listening,
but we see Drake with his son.
Personas.
Kendrick has the persona of being conscious. Kendrick has the persona of being somebody that gives you things. We see Drake with his stuff. Listen to what I'm saying. I'm listening, but we see Drake with his stuff. Personas. Kendrick has the persona of being conscious.
Kendrick has the persona of being somebody that gives you music with substance.
Drake is the party guy.
Right.
He's the guy that gives you the rap record.
So he's playing off their personas.
Yeah, correct.
So he's saying, like, you don't know nothing about, you know, instilling morals and integrity
and disciplining your kids, teaching your son to speak the truth.
And the other part where he says, you know, I don't even really think you like women.
That's not just him saying, I don't think he's saying, yo, Drake, you gay.
He's saying, like, you one of those guys, you like vagina, but you don't really like women.
Right.
There's a difference.
There's guys that like vagina.
They don't really have the respect for women that they should.
And, you know, people always say Drake is a misogynist and things of that nature.
I think Kendrick just approached it from a very grown perspective and i think that
drake is gonna have to dig a little deeper in order to really really uh get at kendrick the
next time if he needs to because there's a lot of people that don't that feel like the complete
opposite there's a lot of people that don't want to dig deep and feel like kendrick's this
it's too deep it's too deep because they're not healed correct well honestly i was scared when
it came up because i was oh my god now i'm gonna have to like really sit with an encyclopedia and all that but he really i because i don't
be understanding everything that kendrick talks about all the time but i was surprised i understand
i understood a lot of it you still gotta listen to over and over right to catch things because
he rap fast he switch up flows but i understood it and i it wasn't too deep for me at all but i
also feel like people just don't like drake because of drake
being one of the top mcs one of the top artists out there and because he's light-skinned a lot
of people don't like it like when i heard gilly say light-skinned niggas up or you know this
that he ever i mean it ain't that he light-skinned it's because he half white it's a difference but
he's still black even if he was light-skinned it would be the same issue i'm not yeah i'm not i'm
not i'm not arguing that i think i think that right there is one of those slippery slopes, right?
When people say things like Drake shouldn't say the N-word.
All right, if Drake shouldn't say the N-word, then neither should J. Cole.
Neither should none of these Puerto Ricans.
Right.
You know?
Neither should none of the Mexicans in L.A.
But they own Drake because it's who Drake is.
A lot of people just don't like Drake.
It's just funny to say, but I've been saying Drake should just say Nick.
I think J. Cole should just say Nick.
Shut up, man.
He should only be able to say half of's that people say latin people shouldn't
really say it at all but that ain't my mexican rap what should they say they shouldn't say it
at all but that ain't my fight you know i mean i'm not gonna sit here and act like i care i'm
not one of those people that's on a high horse like oh you shouldn't say that but that's why
kendrick said i don't like when i don't like it like i but you know it's just it's just something
that i don't personally like that's how i feel. It's not that deep to me.
Another thing Kendrick says in the song that I like, he goes, you the only one that's out here wanting to be famous.
Because Kendrick's like, I ain't with all of that lame.
I ain't with all of that Hollywood, indiscreet, trying to be the most popping person.
I like being on these remote islands.
I like being with my family.
I like making sure that my peace is my peace.
Right.
I respect that.
But that's cool.
There's two different MCs, two different artists.
One likes to be famous.
One likes to just put out music and keep it moving.
There's two different MCs.
He's also playing off Drake's insecurity.
Because if you are a narcissist, if you are a person that leads with ego, you don't like to be exposed.
So for him to be poking at all of those different insecurities questioning his blackness questioning him as a
father telling him as a man he hasn't grown up you running around with all these young boys like
little yachty them that's where you get your inspiration from you you supposed to be the og
you supposed to be you supposed to be better than that as a man oh those that's the those the worst
kind of conversations every man knows that if your mama or your your daddy or your brother or sister
somebody questions you about not growing up,
you're still running around here trying to be the young boy,
dying your beard.
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, my God.
Wearing your hat backwards, still sagging your pants.
I'm talking to you.
No, no, no.
You're wearing your hat backwards.
I'm with my hat backwards.
I'm just saying.
It's because my bub is sagging.
I'm just saying.
You got your pants up, your pants on your waist?
Yeah.
All right, well, let's go to the phone lines.
What's up, Corey?
Hey, what's going on, Envy?
Hey, Corey, what's your thoughts, man?
Hey, man, my thoughts on it is, you know, in the tradition of true diss tracks,
I'm going to name a couple.
No Vaseline, Ether, Hit Em Up.
I mean, I guess I'm just spoiled.
I don't think that he came with his best material.
I think he's a lot better lyrically than that.
You know, and, you know, like I'm saying, I'm with Gilly.
I think it ain't even corn on the cob.
I think it's cream-style corn because it's soft and watered down.
It ain't corny now, but I do feel like I do want more from Kendrick,
and I do think we're going to get more.
But also, when you're 45 years old, when you're born in the 1900s like us,
you can't compare these guys because we could throw gay slurs around.
Everything sounds tougher when it's a gay slur in it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It is the truth.
And I'm not mad with what this guy said.
I just think that people didn't dissect what Kendrick was actually saying.
It's a little more difficult.
And I don't want to say Drake is a surface rapper,
but Drake came from the class of when that's why F-Joke,
you fat mother from the Tupac days where he's saying it out loud, where Kendrick is
going a lot deeper.
By the way, you got to let people have their opinion.
And what I mean by that is, if somebody listens to it and they don't like it, they just don't
like it.
I'll tell you, hey, let's do it again.
Turn it up.
Turn it around.
Look at it from the back.
Reverse it.
Reverse it.
No, but when you hear it a couple of more times, like, you know, we have a group chat
up here, and people in the group chat are like, I don't like it.
I'm like, yo, listen to it a couple of times and break it down,
and then they'll be like, oh, it is dope.
Nisha's on the line.
Nisha, what up?
Yeah.
Drake and Kendrick is both good artists,
but Kendrick, he's not.
Like, that line about dementia and Parkinson's,
I didn't get it to the third time.
Oh, that was crazy.
Like, I mean, dementia is like what?
You can't remember.
Parkinson's is like
you can't. I mean, you're shaky.
And then he ended it with
I'll park your son.
Yeah, because he was talking about Drake's father.
I don't know if it's our Drake's father figure.
I think he was talking about Drake's father,
mother, and Drake, and then he said,
park your son. I'm like, is he talking about
his son? I don't know.
But Kendrick,
I think Drake should just sit down.
No, he's not.
Because when you're messing with a healed Gemini, he's healed.
That's right.
He's able to see the weaknesses in anybody.
That's right.
That's right.
When you do the work.
That's right.
And Kendrick is a Gemini.
That's right.
Biggie was a Gemini.
Tupac was a Gemini.
Jadakiss is a Gemini.
Those are lyricists
I don't know about
The astrological sign thing
Because I'm a Cancer
So I'm not riding
With y'all Gemini
But I do feel you
On the healed part
Like the fact that
Kendrick is approaching this
As a healed grown man
He's literally poking
At all Drake's insecurities
He's seeing all of these
Insecurities in Drake
He's telling Drake
You're the boy
But I ain't seen the man yet
Yeah but it gets to a point
too where Drake,
you gotta feel the way
because every rapper out there
has been throwing shots at Drake.
And it gets to the point
where he has to come
with a chop and start
shooting everybody.
If you go down a line
from Rick Ross.
What does it got to do
with Kendrick?
No, because it's like,
Kendrick's taking one shot.
Listen, I need a dog-skin man
in here to have this conversation.
See, that's what I'm talking about.
He can't have a...
Kendrick is taking one shot.
The beige bias is crazy.
It's not no beige bias.
It's not.
Why your voice getting so high?
Why your voice getting so high?
Bring it down.
My voice is down.
Your voice got crazy high just now.
My voice is down.
The beige bias is crazy.
Why they always want to jump the light skin, guys?
I don't know.
I don't think Kendrick is clicking that with nobody.
Kendrick is, you know what I'm saying?
It's just everybody else.
But everybody's attacking. Yeah, everybody. He ain't saying? It's just everybody else. But everybody's attacking.
Yeah, everybody.
But he ain't got nothing to do with everybody else.
We ain't never seen nobody get attacked like this.
That is not true.
Who got attacked like this?
Ja Rule.
Jeffrey Atkins.
I hate when you men from the 1900s act like y'all don't remember.
Ja Rule got jumped so Drake could run, bro.
Who attacked Ja like this?
Ja had allies.
Ja got jumped.
By 50. 50 cents. The whole G unit. That's his whole clip. Jai got jumped by 50. 56.
The whole G-Unit.
Busta Rhymes, Eminem,
D12. What are you talking about?
That was the whole clique. But he still had
Fat Joe. He still did records with Jadakiss.
He still did records with all those people.
Ja Rule got jumped. Cut it out.
Drake got jumped by Pussy G.
Rick Ross.
Who else?
Kendrick. Nexoro, Future, Kanye.
No.
Ja Rule was the original person in hip-hop who got jumped.
It all jumped him.
Cut it out.
Ja Rule got jumped. Not like this.
Yes, he did.
Not like this.
Yes, he worse.
D-Twipe wasn't at the top of the game when they jumped him.
Ja Rule got jumped worse.
It was M&M in 50.
No, he didn't.
Not only did Ja Rule get jumped worse, they were in the streets fighting.
They was stabbing and shootings.
The FBI got him.
What are you talking about?
Drake got too much security.
That's why it had to happen.
Ja, I will not let your crucifixion go in vain.
Ja, I will not let your sacrifice go in vain.
We'll take more phone calls when we come back.
No way.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's EJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
If you're just joining us, we're talking about Kendrick responding to Drake.
All right, with Euphoria.
We just played both of them.
Now, we're just taking your phone calls.
Let me see who this is.
Hello, who's this?
It's V from Detroit.
What up, Del?
Talk to us.
Yeah. So, you got to start off with the first beginning of it.
He used Teddy Pendergrass.
Right.
My lady's my greatest inspiration.
So he's telling y'all that he's bored with rapping.
This battle is inspiring him.
Then yesterday was National Honesty Day.
So he's telling him on that day, you got to look yourself in the mirror
and see how honest you got to be with yourself with all these lines he's telling.
Now, how you going to beat that?
How you going to beat that?
He broke down on National Honesty Day and Kendrick fried Drake on National Honesty Day.
You think Kendrick knew it was National Honesty Day?
Well, if that's the case, I can say today is the first day of Mental Health Awareness Month.
It was a psychological evaluation of Drake and his insecurities.
And his YNWMLE birthday. Oh, it was? Yeah, it is. It was a psychological evaluation of Drake and his insecurities. And his YNW
birthday.
Yeah, it is.
It's his birthday.
I hate y'all.
Hello.
What's your name?
I didn't realize.
I didn't realize you guys picked up.
I was sitting up here talking to my mama.
Tell your mama we said what's up.
Hold up.
DJ FV, Charlamagne, the guy that dressed Larry said what's up.
Young mama.
He got a young mama.
Hey, hey, chill out.
How old your mama is?
Oh, God.
Mind your business.
You know Charlamagne like I'm older.
No, I don't.
Yeah, she in that age frame too.
Anyway, I think Kendrick got it.
Okay, why do you think that?
Because Drake hit back with that.
He hit back with that weak AI joint.
So Kendrick Lamar got to fight his writers and Skynet?
That don't make no sense.
And people saying he up.
I just think Kendrick was more disrespectful than his other stuff.
Nah, I like Kendrick.
Well, Drake, you know Drake is about to go to hell.
Yes.
Because, you know, I think people forget at the end of Push Up, Drake says, you know, I was trying to keep it PG.
And then that cuts off.
So he really about to go to hell.
He about to go to hell.
I think he about to go to hell.
I think it's about to get nasty. They about to put each other's spouses into it. I think it's about to get disgusting. Kendrick went low, but Drake about to go to hell I think he about to go to hell it's about to get nasty they about to put each other spouses
into it I think it's about to get disgusting
Kendrick went low but Drake about to go to hell
but even so
I don't even think Kendrick went low
I think Kendrick just went a little bit
more deeper
you talk about your father and stuff I think that's a little low
I think that's just challenging him on
you know
that was challenging Drake's fatherhood and his parenting skills.
That's low.
Because Drake's father may not have been there for him the way he probably would have been.
But that's still low.
You talk about how I raise my kids and I don't do this and I don't do that.
You're calling me a bad dad.
I think anytime you bring in kids and family.
Yeah, that's low.
Especially if you're a good father and you stand on being a good father.
Yeah, that's low.
That's low.
I'm not mad at it though
I think that anybody who
Is objective
Oh
Who's this
Hello
This is Lamar
Yo thank you for having me
Because
This is the greatest moment
Of my life
Hip hop
Did it again
Oh
My god
You guys gotta understand
This is
Like
The greatest
Because this is to me This is the greatest. Because this is, to me, this is Nas and Jay-Z.

I'm sorry to ruin the greatest day of your life, but you lost us.
Yeah, you lost us.
Okay.
Nas and Jay-Z.
He was good.
I'm with you.
He was there.
Could have just left it there.
Nelly and Karis won.
LL and Cannabis?
No.
He taking it back, back, back.
Yeah.
I don't even know what he was trying to say.
Maybe this is the closest thing to him that we're going to get to in these days.
Yeah.
I mean, it is Nas and Jay-Z because this is the two best of their generation.
Correct.
It is.
These are the two best of their generation.
Say whatever you want.
You can talk about future.
You can talk about J. Cole.
These are the top of the top, top tier of our generation.
But I'm not going to front.
I love you four.
I think how Kendrick dissected it was dope.
I love push-ups.
I love the start. But I do love the fact front. I love you for, I think how Kendrick dissected it was dope. I love pushups. I love the start,
but I do love the fact that these brothers are competitive again.
Right.
I think it was to a point where everybody was too friendly and it was making
music,
uh,
not as great as it was.
But now when I'm still starting to,
the competitiveness is back in hip hop.
And I love that.
And that's what the caller was saying.
Yeah.
But he had to say that way.
We met Liam Karras,
one in LL and cannabis though. Like I said, this isn't just raps. Kendrick did a psychological evaluation on what he had to say that way with netflix and caris wanting ll and cannabis though
like i said this isn't just raps kendrick did a psychological evaluation on what he believes to
be drake's insecurities and i feel like when you are you know a healed individual you can see a lot
of the insecurities and a lot of these grown-ass boys and that's essentially what he's telling
drake you need to grow up you haven't grown up yet but if drake does go deep right and he does
a record where he goes deep well people respect it the same hell yeah you think so yes if it's dope when drake came out he
was deep like that i mean drake has that ability to do that it's not like he can't he just choose
to give people what they want i prefer to chop a fly what jess said is 100 true 100 true he can
cook up these gourmet meals if you want to yeah He's choosing to give them more of the junk food.
All right.
What's the moral of the story?
Do we have a moral?
I don't think it's a moral.
You can't really call it right now?
Nope.
It's good.
It's good for the game.
Well, yesterday he was performing with Nicki Minaj on Toronto.
Nicki Minaj, yeah, he was.
And he said-
And on his way off the stage, he said, all right, y'all, I got to go.
Y'all know what I got to do.
Well, go do it, damn it.
Yeah, that's what he said.
All right.
Yeah.
All right. Well, I love it. All right. Yeah, that's what he said. All right. Yeah.
All right.
Well, I love it.
All right. When we come back, we got Jess with the mess.
What are we talking about?
Yeah, people's reacting to Euphoria.
Okay.
Yep.
We'll get to that next.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to Jess with the mess.
The news is real, brother.
Jess Hilarious, Jess Hilarious, Jess don't do no lying.
Jess don't do no lying. She don't spell nobody. So people was reacting to euphoria
social media other rappers but the rapper that we really care about most reacting to it is drake and
he had posted um something in his story uh after well he was mocking drake talking about what he
hated that's uh play the drake part again i mean the kendrick part one more time and then let's
hear what drake put on his story quote with him i hate the way you talk to me and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car.
I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick.
It even makes me rhyme.
I hate it.
I hate the way you're always right.
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh.
Even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when you're not around.
That's cool.
I love the comedy and all, but get in the booth, Aubrey.
Yeah, yo, this the thing.
He's not a fan of the booth, though.
He gets in that booth.
Yeah, but when he's mad, that white side come out.
You used the whitest movie.
That's from 10 Things I Hate About You.
He could have used this one for me. I hate your black skin. mad that white side come out you use the whitest movie that's from 10 things i hate about you he
could have used this one for me i hate your black skin i hate your black pants i hate black pepper
i hate black keys on the piano i hate my gums because they black i hate whoopi goldberg's lips
i hate the back of forrest williker's neck j Jesus. Most of all, I hate that black ass Wesley Snipes.
He could have used that, but being that his blackness is being questioned right now, he can't.
I know, but that was funnier to me if we're going to go comedy with it.
But that's Bernie Mac.
Does Drake reply with a song called Nigga?
Oh, my God.
Does he just go there?
I'm going to be scared.
Lord, I'm going to be scared.
I would just call, Drake, this is a piece of advice.
I would call it nigg.
You and Cole should have been listening to me.
I've been told y'all just to use half the word.
Been told y'all that.
They're black.
They're biracial.
But they're black.
Don't discount their 50% of the whiteness.
They're white too.
But they're black too.
Yes, they're black.
So they're black and white.
Barack Obama's black.
Drake is black.
J. Cole is black.
And all of those people you name should just use half of the word.
They should just say Nick.
We shouldn't be using it at all.
But if they want to use it, just say Nick.
So what's the last thing you want to say?
We can give them hell, Nick.
Nothing.
Fine.
Whatever they call each other.
By the way, I don't care about that either.
But that's what this conversation will open up.
Yeah.
Who can use it and who can't.
Drake also, like we talked about last night, he came out.
Nicki bought him out at her tour. And this is what he said before he left off the stage basically he said you know what i
gotta do you know i'm about to go get busy i gotta go you know what i'm saying one thing we're not
gonna do though is ever act like drake is scared no like like like like win or lose Drake has shown up to every single
call out
from a rapper
yeah
he showed up
for Meek Mill
Pusha T
showed up with Pusha T
Kanye
he showed up
with all of these guys
just now
all of them
you're not gonna act
like Drake is afraid
of some confrontation
or some conflict
not at all
especially not when
you know your pen
you know yourself
YNW Melly
also responds
that's what kendrick
is saying i don't know if he knows this okay well we'll say he knows himself he knows himself get
deep i think he knows himself do it all right uh melly also responded to the bars that mentioned
him i don't spit it on him again before you push me i love it so uh melly said kendrick lamar is
one of my favorite rappers so i feel honored and appalled i'm a household name just for the wrong
ish uh ymw melly is still actively fighting his double murder charge for that so I'm
pretty sure the judge will be happy to hear this thanks for the crime Kendrick
spoke on Gunna's reputation as a snitch gonna post it I don't even know what
this is I can't read this in Atlantalanta but it said man what's up
so i was like what's happening what's up what's up what's up what's up yeah man what's up basically
what what is what's happening what's going on what's basically what's going on gotta just stay
in the gym it's all right just keep the head down it's all right that's interesting i thought so
he's saying that he thinks that dra, he knows some things about Drake being
the snitch.
But I took it as he knows some things that if he start talking, if Kendrick starts talking,
it's going to look like a saying.
That's what I thought.
That's what I thought it was, that he knows so much information that if he starts speaking,
you know, spilling the tea, it's going to make.
Spilling the tea.
Boy.
Whatever you want to call it.
God damn, man. damn yo shut up yo and
the last person i'm so because i want to and i'm clutching your pearls i'm not i'm not even wearing
pearls the last person i'm so surprised by is gilly this is this was Gilly responding. Gilly is for a million dollars worth of game, y'all.
I heard that Kendrick Lamar dissed.
I f***ed with Kendrick, but that s*** was going on the cob, man.
You know what's crazy, man?
The light-skinned a**es is winning, man.
Three to nothing, man.
F***ing Drake up two to nothing.
Motherf***ing Chris Brown up one to nothing.
Just take me back.
I remember in the motherf***ing late 80s. The motherf***ing light-skinned a**es ran everything up to the late 80s. Then mother-skinned man, or anything up to the late 80s,
then my Nino Brown pistol
with very light-skinned
and my New Jack City.
God bless you.
I think they won the world, man.
Dark-skinned,
that's Debbie Game, my man.
That was just a movie,
by the way, but yeah.
Yeah, but I'm just so mad.
Like, yo, Gilly,
you had a whole song
talking about you
as the chicken man.
You're not talking about this.
Like, stop playing with me, Gilly.
I'm so surprised by him, yo. I'm surprised with surprised with getting up because he made this song from the chicken man
Gillian is a lyricist he's a writer he used to write for people so Gilly would
break it down you figure more than other people yeah I disagree with Gilly to it
if you don't music is subjective so you don't like the record, cool.
It ain't corn on the cob, though, Gilly.
Not from Gil.
Not from Gil.
I don't care who it's from.
It's just not corn on the cob.
That's just not accurate.
Because he's a writer.
He's a rapper.
He said he wrote for Wayne, so he would break it down a lot different.
Chicken.
All right.
That's it.
That's just what you asked for the second hour.
All right.
All right. He was serious, too, in the video with hella chicken. alright that's it that's just what you asked for the second hour alright alright

Solomon, who you giving a donkey too, man.
For after the hour, man,
we need Michael Billingsley,
Billingly,
to come to the front of the congregation.
We'd like to have a word with him, man.
He's an exhibitionist.
We'll talk about it.
All right, we'll get to that next.
It's the Breakfast Local Morning.
Wake up.
Wake up.
You're locked into the Breakfast Club.
Some donkey today
has just sold himself.
I've been watching, Charlamagne. I was ready for you.
I'm a donkey.
I never heard of a donkey the other day. What is it?
I'm a donkey.
Say it again, Charlamagne.
I'm a donkey.
Yes, you are a donkey.
I'll show you how to act a donkey.
Everything that Charlamagne is saying is true.
Yes, donkey today for Wednesdaynesday may 1st the first
day of mental health awareness month goes to a west kenosha man named michael billingley okay
michael billingley was arrested after being accused of driving through a starbucks naked
multiple times let's go to 523 news for the report please west kenosha is closed for renovations but
before the construction started broken arrow police say say Michael Billingsley showed up fully naked. That's crazy.
Alexandria Moore works across the street at a music studio, so Starbucks is a popular place
to go for people who work in the strip where she works. Some of my students, they typically go over
there like their moms or whomever will come and bring them coffee and stuff during the lesson when
I'm teaching.
And yeah, I know that they would probably be pretty disturbed as well.
According to court records, Billingsley went to the Starbucks on March 30th completely naked to pay for his coffee.
And then again a week later, playing porn on his phone and exposing himself.
It left such an impression that people working there knew his order of large iced
americano okay okay okay okay this man pulled up starbuck naked okay imagine you came to get a
caramel frappuccino blended beverage and here goes this man penis flapping in the parking lot now
it wasn't that he was just driving around the parking lot naked as you heard one manager
noticed him watching porn as he drove he clearly wanted more than sweet
cream on his pistachio frappuccino michael describes himself as an exhibitionist which is a
person who likes to be naked in public listen people they have nudist resorts for that okay do
your googles it's nudist resorts and nudist colonies all over this country michael what about
your place of residence walk around the house naked i don't know if you have a backyard or not
but walk around the backyard naked.
Go to the gym.
Walk around the locker room naked like the old white men with little to no penis do.
Okay, there is really no reason to just be showing up to Starbucks naked unless you are simply trying to go to jail.
Now, what's interesting about this story is that Michael admitted to going to the Starbucks drive-thru multiple times naked to see the pretty girls.
What part of that did he think was going to work?
Now, you also heard in the news report, Michael left such an impression that people working there knew his order of a large iced Americano.
I'm just saying.
Now, see, if he walking around Starbucks naked and his order is a large ice americano then as an exhibitionist
people may appreciate your exhibition jess do you like to see large mocha cookie crumbles just
hanging around huh i'm just saying i know i'm just saying i know being naked in public is
inappropriate but if you saw a naked man just and it was just swinging would you look before you
call the proper authorities yes and depending on how you know how it look i might not call them
damn if i got my kids if i got kids like all right i'll put that away but you know
would you put it on your story what no i'm not doing all that okay no okay well michael if you
want to get with some of these pretty girls as you said you may want to put some clothes on and try a different approach i think approaching these pretty girls naked
right out the gate you might be moving a little too fast just my opinion okay showing up butt
naked right out the gate i don't think that's the best approach okay and listen please keep in mind
i'm telling this story to simply say today is the first day of mental health awareness month
mental health awareness was established in 1949 to increase awareness of the importance of mental health and wellness in Americans' lives and to celebrate recovery from mental illness.
Let's keep that in mind next time you're ordering an iced chai tea latte at Starbucks and it's a man, you know, just a random penis roaming around the parking lot.
All right.
Please give Michael Billingly the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, no, you are the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey of the day.
Yeehaw.
And size does matter because a smaller penis would have got the police called on them much
faster yeah absolutely that's what i was saying like no i'm not ready all this for what i can't
where's that okay i'm calling the cops this woman is out here flash her vagina
my goodness all right yeah thank you for that donkey of the day wait what race is he like who
like do we have a picture of him we do have a picture i just wanted to see are we gonna play
a game we can play a game if y' to see. Are we going to play a game?
We can play a game if y'all want to.
Okay.
You want to play a game?
Let's play a game.
Let's play a game of Guess What Race It Is.
I get my clues.
Michael Billingly from West Kenosha, Wisconsin, was walking around a Starbucks parking lot
butt naked multiple times, and he left such an impression that people knew his order of
a large ice Americano.
DJ Envy. Guess what race it is?
He's white.
Okay, okay.
What makes you say that?
You said he walked around multiple times.
If he would have been black, they would have called the cops immediately.
Well, he went to different locations.
Oh.
He went to different Starbucks.
Different Starbucks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I still think he's white.
Okay.
I think it's white behavior.
All right.
Just hilarious.
Michael Billingly from West Kenosha, Wisconsin, was walking around a Starbucks naked multiple times,
and he left such an impression that they knew his order of a large iced Americano.
Guess what race he is.
Wait, one question.
What size was the thing swinging?
Listen, let me ask.
I was going to ask.
You was going to ask that?
Because that way we could tell what he was.
Jesus.
That was my question.
Yo, damn.
Okay, what size?
Did it say the description of length?
Why are you batting your eyes like that?
They said that he left such an impression that they knew his order of a large iced Americano.
I would say black.
Damn, damn, damn.
Well, Tress Hilarious, DJ Envy.
I don't know what this man is.
I think this is what Kendrick is talking about on the Euphoria record.
I don't know.
He looks like he should just say nigg as well.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He looks like a biracial. Yeah, it's a given biracial. It's black and something. I'm't know. He looks like he should just say Nick as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He looks like a biracial.
Yeah, it's given biracial.
It's black and something.
I'm not sure.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Because, you know, you can see the texture of the hair.
Yeah, yeah.
But then when you look at the face and the complexion, it's giving envy.
But it don't give white.
It don't give.
Yeah.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
Don't say giving envy.
I'm black.
Don't say giving envy.
Yeah.
Okay. Well, we don't know. But we'll just say we both was right. Yeah. We. You know what I'm saying? Don't say give me envy. I'm black. Don't say give an envy. Okay.
We don't know, but I will just say we both was right.
Yeah.
We got the day together.
I don't think I want to hear Michael say nigga no more.
Okay.
I don't know.
All right.
Well, thank you for that donkey of the day.
Yes.
Now, today is May 1st.
Mm-hmm.
It is the first day of Mental Health Awareness Month.
That's right.
And we have Elliot Coney joining us.
We're going to kick it with him when we come back.
Elliot Coney is a psychotherapist who focuses on solution-focused therapy.
And he has a new podcast called Family Therapy as well.
But he's a great guy.
So you'll hear from him in a second.
All right.
We'll get to that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Yes, indeed.
Because May is Mental Health Awareness Month.
Ladies and gentlemen, friends to the room.
Of course, we have Elliot Connie here.
Welcome.
Welcome back, I should say.
Thank you.
What's up, brother?
How are you feeling?
I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling very good.
First day of Mental Health Awareness Month, man. When you hear people celebrate mental health awareness month,
or you see everybody posting their green ribbon, what do you think people really should be getting
out of mental health awareness month? What I hope they should get out of mental health awareness
month is, I mean, it's almost redundant really, but just an awareness that your mental health is
important, as important as your physical health, your emotional health, your overall wellbeing.
And I hope it lasts longer than a month.
I hope that we can use this month as an opportunity to allow people to focus on their health, their mental health going forward.
Now, you got a new podcast, Family Therapy.
Family Therapy.
And I was talking to my wife the other day, right?
And we were talking about our kids.
I have six kids.
Yeah.
And she was telling me that three of my kids feared me.
Okay.
The three that didn't of
course is logan who was the you know diesel now i'm just kidding but logan the baby payton and
brooklyn which is the youngest seven the other three said they feared that at times now it was
kind of concerning to me uh because i've never beat him never hit him never popped him i'm stern
i always say i'm fair but firm uh and but it bothered me why they were
fearful and they said the reason that they were fearful is because sometimes i raise my voice
when i ask them to do things but as family therapy having a family what is your your take on kids and
fearing their dad not fair where they see me they dive under the bed but that little fearful thing
well first of all um i think sometimes we confuse fear and respect.
So I think it's a good idea for children to respect their father and their mother.
In this specific instance, I would ask you if your youngest child's job is to make sure there's juice and soda and things in the refrigerator and you come home and there is nothing cold to drink and you're frustrated and you get a little loud,
my question for you would be when you come home and there is drinks and the child has done their job, do you get equally enthusiastic in the praise of them? You're right, I don't. And if you did,
then that would create a balance and there wouldn't necessarily be the fear because they
wouldn't associate you with the feedback of it hasn't worked. You have to be equally enthusiastic in the praise
as you are in the criticism. So is this what family therapy is all about? I listened to the
first episode and I forgot the couple's name. Jay and David. Jay and David. Yeah. The football
former NFL player. Yeah. So is this what it would be about? Questions like Envy just said? Yeah. You
know, the way that I do therapy, it's called solution focused brief therapy based on questions and questions are very very powerful things and we don't really think
about the questions that we ask ourselves but questions are real powerful and we and we can't
help but change it so my job is to ask people the kinds of questions that change the way they look
at things change the way they view themselves and change the way they react in the world now what do you think about these students dealing
with everything that's going on uh with them having to think about who's going to be the next
president and them uh protesting on these campuses how is that affecting their mental health because
i mean as adults we're stressed out so i know it has to be uh even worse on them yeah you know
i'm concerned uh for this generation of of kids, because we're not designed
to consume the level of data that we are consuming. And these kids are consuming massive amounts of
information at a time when their brains can't really handle it. So I'm concerned about what
that's going to do to their overall well-being, to be very honest with you. Like we're seeing
massive upticks in things like anxiety and depression. It's directly attributable to what's going on in the world. Having said that,
I'm also very encouraged to see these kids playing a role in what their future will look like.
I think politicians should be more responsive to society. And what I see these kids doing
is letting the world know what they want to have happen in their life.
And I hope that politicians listen and pay attention because these young people
are going to be the ones voting for the next however many years. And I think this generation
is more kind of interactive in the world they want to create. I think this generation is more
like contributing to the world they want to live in. And I think that's a beautiful thing,
actually. And I think I hope politicians pay attention to it. They won't be reelected.
You know, when it comes to family, family therapy, what is family therapy to Elliot Connick?
Man, that's a good question. I think family therapy, it's hard for me at this point in my
career, it's hard for me to differentiate family therapy versus any other kind of therapy,
because family therapy is really therapy that impacts the system. And I think we often think family therapy is when the system comes to therapy.
But I don't really think about it that way anymore because I think anything, any kind of therapy I do impacts the system.
And we all know this.
If you have a super great day and you go home, that's going to reverberate through the household.
If one of your children goes to school and has a super bad day, that's going to reverberate through the household.
So if one member of a family comes to therapy and that healing does something in the family,
then that's systemic. I remember working with a client one time, this kid was probably 13 years
old. And these are the kinds of things that molded my view of humans change therapy and family
therapy, really. But this 13 year old, I asked him what he wanted to achieve. When I do therapy,
I always ask people what are their best hopes from talking with me,
which is my way of saying, how do you want this to make a difference in your life?
And this 13-year-old said, I don't think you can.
And I said, how so?
And he explained to me that his father drank.
And he said, there's really nothing you can talk to me about that's going to help my father
stop drinking.
And I said, that's true.
So let's imagine your father continues drinking.
Like he never stops.
He just continues drinking throughout their childhood. But you developed the ability to achieve your greatness in's imagine your father continues drinking. Like he never stops. He just continues drinking throughout their childhood.
But you develop the ability to achieve your greatness in spite of your father's drinking.
What kind of greatness do you want to achieve?
This kid tells me he wants to go to college and tells me the career he wants to have.
And we start having this discussion about his future.
Which, by the way, is really important because your future should not be singularly determinate based upon somebody else's behavior, even your parents.
That's right.
And this 13-year-old starts telling me about his future he wants to have.
At the end of the first session, he's like, man, this was really cool.
I'm glad I got to talk to you about this.
He comes back to another session and said, what's been better?
And he said, you know what?
My father's still drinking, but I'm doing better in school because I'm realizing that
my future is my future.
I don't have to wait for my father to heal in order for me to grow.
Great.
So we have probably two or three sessions, and I don't see that kid anymore.
The mom tells me kids doing better.
I don't hear from that kid whatsoever.
About six months later, the father comes to therapy.
And I said, what do you best hope for our talking?
And the father said, my son is doing better and I need to figure out how to not ruin it.
Wow.
And that father ended up getting sober.
Now, how does that happen?
Because you like, we participate in whatever is going on in the family.
So if that is something positive, then the family has a tendency to get on board with that. If that is something negative, then the family has a tendency to get on board with that.
So prior to me meeting that child, the dad's drinking was creating a negative environment and producing negative outcomes.
The kids grades were suffering. So on its own. But once the kids started getting better, then the family gets on board with that, and that father
ended up getting clean. So when the child initially said, I don't think you can help me with the thing
that I want to achieve, I knew he was wrong. Of course we can. You are a very powerful force in
your family. So if you go home and you start doing positive things and you start changing your life,
then the father has to kind of look at himself in a different way. And for me, that's what family therapy is. It's having an impact on
how a family system functions. It's having an impact on future generations within a family.
It's having an impact on healing generational traumas. To me, that's what family therapy is.
It doesn't really matter whether there's one person there or a whole family system shows up.
All right, we got more with Elliot Connie. When we we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv jess hilarious charlamagne
the guy we are the breakfast club now it's may 1st so it starts mental health awareness month
and we have elliot connie here therapist charlamagne what do people do to protect their
minds their mental against social media because i always say it's a lack of emotional iq for people to care so
much about what other folks think about them am i accurate or am i wrong no i think that's pretty
accurate i i think what people should do but i really want to say get off of it right but i think
it's too late like the it's too late the easiest thing is to remember that that's not real life
i think we have to train our children to understand that that is not real.
That does not matter. It's monopoly money, essentially, like what's going on in social media.
It doesn't matter. It's not it's not really real. It's not really important.
And when kids realize that, they tend to do way better. It's not just kids, though.
It's adults. I'm watching some really intelligent people, people that I know are some of the most well-read, book-smart individuals who care more about their relationships online than they do with their relationships offline.
I think that's true.
But I was focusing on kids because that's what we were talking about, but everybody.
We need to remember that that world is just not real.
What's real is your friendships, your connections, the people you talk to, your family, your loved ones. That's what's real. How friendships your connections the people you talk to your family your loved ones like that's what's real how many likes and followers you have like that is
irrelevant data that is not that is not real but people get caught up in it but i but i also tell
i tell my kids and i tell my friends use social media as a tool that's exactly what it is not not
as an educational piece not as a friend not as something where you're looking for approval.
Use it as a tool.
Like my daughter does.
She just graduated from NYU.
She works with Serhan and she does real estate.
I said, you use it to do your real estate.
That's exactly what it is.
You use it as a tool.
My other daughters do dance.
You do it for that.
You do it for tool.
But most people don't say it.
And like Charlamagne said, they look for acceptance from people that are not going to give them the acceptance that they're looking they try try again until we see themselves distraught
that's 100 true i i absolutely think it is a tool that is all social media is a tool where we've
gotten into trouble is social media has turned the world into like that high school popularity
contest correct and i remember being in high school and you know you're upset because the
girl you like doesn't like you back or you're not sitting at the cool kid table at the cafeteria or whatever.
And the adults would say, you know, in a few years, this ain't gonna matter because this isn't real.
And they're right. That's 100 percent true. There are people, adults, celebrities like I've seen people all over the world.
Like they just get too wrapped up in what social media is saying about them because we've allowed it to become like the world's cafeteria but if you use
it as a tool and if you remember like this is not real you tend to have much healthier lives about
that and how can a bunch of strangers tell you about you and and more importantly how can a
bunch of strangers tell you about somebody you actually know imagine if i interact with a person
every day in real life but on social media it's a whole other narrative about this
individual yeah who am i supposed to believe my real life experiences are these on social media
don't even know you these people on social media they don't know you they're just spitting out
whatever they heard i just think it's crazy that we've allowed this to happen and we have to
remember that's just not real and personal relationships still in fact matter i have
friends in the entertainment industry and i see stories about them that I know not to be true.
There have been times that I've been hanging out with people like Tiffany Haddish, and I'll see stories about her.
I'm like, I know that's not true.
I was there with her that particular night.
And to your point, I'm not listening to that story.
I'm going to believe my own real relationship and interaction with this person.
And I think too often we let social media
determine and define what our experiences are and it's just not real as a therapist um is social
media the number one thing you see affecting people's mental yeah for sure 100 i think i
think social media uh is absolutely especially in the younger generation is the number one thing
contributing to a mental health crisis in this in this society wow i wanted to ask you too about uh you know you recently did some work with fredo
bang yeah well y'all did a therapy session we did we did we did a session that he's going to use
for the release of his newest album and for the song yes i'm sad yeah i think it was the deluxe
album yeah yeah what was that like man that was incredible um man it's hard man it's hard to even put into words first of all
i have a tremendous amount of respect for him uh in a very short amount of time getting to know him
he's been through a lot like he has been through a whole whole lot in just the decision to want
to address that and and to have a conversation with a therapist in my opinion is a profound decision but to expose his audience to that
because he wants to spread healing that is that was an incredible thing to be a part of and and
for me like at this stage of my career like i want to make healing go viral you know i want to make
healing and i mean true healing i'm not talking about talking about it or you know fixing what's
wrong with you.
I mean, like to your point earlier,
I don't know anybody
who's been alive longer than 10 minutes
that doesn't have something to heal from.
And when I look at social media,
you know, you see,
you'll see someone
with a super positive mental health message
and they get this many views
and someone doing a food review
of a cheeseburger stand
gets this many views.
And that's fine.
Like I'm not hating on them.
Like,
you know,
have your success,
but I want the world to be equally interested in mental health and healing.
And for someone like Fredo with his positionality in the culture to
prioritize that,
I think that that's massive.
I think that that that's the kind of thing that will have a rippling impact
and,
and will likely save people's lives. Like someone's life. I can that that that's the kind of thing that will have a rippling impact and and will likely save people's lives.
Like someone's life, I can guarantee you someone's life will be saved because they look up to Fredo and they recognize him as a as who he is in the culture.
And if he thinks therapy and mental health is important, then someone somewhere in Baton Rouge, Louisiana or wherever is going to think mental health is important and they're going to seek therapy, too, because Fredo made it cool.
So to be a part of that moment was it's hard to put into words how appreciative I am for that and how much that means to me.
It's it's it's a very, very big deal, I think.

Don't do no lying.
She don't spare nobody.
Worldwide Jess.
Worldwide message.
On The Breakfast Club.
She's a coach of shit.
She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see.
It's time to settle it all.
What you saying, Jess?
Your mic was on.
Your mic was on the whole time.
My bad.
These people got to run.
All right, so Gypsy Rose is moving on or backwards.
Gypsy Rose Blanchett been outside since she came home.
For those who don't know, that's the girl who's known for arranging her mother's death after she made her doctors and other people think that she was sick.
So she convinced her boyfriend to kill people think that she was sick so she
convinced her boyfriend to kill her mom so they can be together they both went to jail and gypsy
got into a relationship with a man named ken while she was in prison so she left yo and met another
dude in prison they got engaged and ended up calling off the engagement in 2019 so after that
gypsy connected with another man named ryan anderson they got married in 2022 and then separated i reported this um a couple weeks ago she got separated from ryan because she said he breathed
too hard he generates a lot of body heat and how he keeps the refrigerator he's like a hoarder of
old food and that triggered her to think to think about her mother how her mother used to treat her
and all that stuff um now that gypsy married, now that that marriage is over,
she spun the block on Ken.
This was the guy that she met in jail
that she was engaged to while she was in prison.
Paparazzi caught pictures of them
being affectionate in public.
We don't know how they linked back up.
We don't even know why they broke up,
but she told TMZ,
after reconnecting earlier this month,
we realized that our love for each other
is simply undeniable
and life is too short to not take a chance. Earlier this month, we realized that our love for each other is simply undeniable.
And life is too short to not take a chance.
Robert to the sweaty guy that she dumped.
First of all, the sweaty guy.
Uh-uh.
I guess he's just still sweaty.
Like, that's the, you know, that's the thing.
Because she didn't go back to him.
She went back to the guy before him.
Okay.
But the life is too short is not a, she said life is too short to not take a chance oh so she back with him that's crazy i know my mother was thinking the same thing
wow okay all right so keisha cole reacts to scrappy uh scrappy was on a recent episode of
bag fuel hosted by the host on that show and i'm about to kick your ass. Yeah. I,
yo,
Heineken.
Heineken.
Oh,
so why he smell it like that?
Why he smell it like the beer?
You know who Heineken is,
right?
No.
That's the one that did the podcast.
It was like,
Jess is from Baltimore.
She messed up.
Remember?
Oh,
yeah. Heineken.
Yeah.
So they were speaking on fake relationships.
Heineken and Esso.
And Scrag.
Yeah.
Yo,
all right,
yo,
I wasn't going to,
I was going to leave yo out. Okay, my bad. You trying it. My bad. And your homies? Yeah. Yo. All right, yo. I was going to leave yo out.
Okay, my bad.
You trying it.
My bad.
And your homies?
Yeah, I know, though.
I'm just telling you.
All right, yo, back up.
That's right.
Press his ass back.
Damn, yo.
You know what I'm saying?
That's what I'm talking about.
Now, light skin.
Stand down.
Stand down.
We don't want you to say the N-word no more.
All right.
Basically, they was talking about fake relationships.
And Scrappy gave his theory on Keisha Cole relationship with Honcho.
This is what he said.
Did y'all see my baby Ruby Rose with Drewski?
I heard about it when I landed.
Do you think it's real or fake?
I think it's real.
I hope it's fake.
I think it's real like the stimulus package that Blac Chyna had.
What's she in?
With niggas who would date rappers.
Who would date rappers and pay for it.
Drewski ain't got it.
That's cross marketing. So that't need to pay for that.
That's cross-marketing.
So that's Keisha Cole.
Yes.
And Huncho.
And Huncho.
So Keisha Cole probably did pay Huncho.
The actual person don't do it.
The label do it.
The label do it.
They done did that with me
back in the day.
Who did the label pay for Scrappy
to be with back in the day?
He said it was this new girl,
this new artist
that was on Warner Brothers
when he was over there
and they paid him
to walk around with her,
got him to do a song with her
and they even did a video together.
So he was speaking on that
with maybe going on
with Keisha Cole
and so she got offended by that.
She said,
you're not a true Keisha Cole.
Well, somebody else said,
you're not a true Keisha Cole fan
if you think she would be paid
to have a relationship with anyone.
You couldn't pay her to be fake.
The blog's lying again. So she said, and what hurts the most is saying that is nah nigga uh with two c's uh you get paid you get paid to fake relationships like
you said like what are they talking about trying to get clicks hopefully this helps so that that
did hurt our feelings and not not feelings will be hurt too. Because if it was all about hyping up Honcho's publicity or whatever,
they would put him with a current rapper or a current singer or something like that.
Not Keisha.
Keisha's an OG.
You know what I'm saying?
They would use somebody like Ice Spice or Sexy Red or Megan or something like that.
Somebody who got records on the radio now.
Yeah, that would match
somebody who's going
viral all the time now
and it would be like
a rapper
like it would be
another rapper
I think Honcho's fine though
I think he's one of the
biggest artists in Atlanta
right now
you think he's fine too
Jeff
you think he's fine
yeah I think
Keisha Cole is fine
let's just put it that way
so you think Keisha's fine
and you think Honcho
I said Honcho's fine
he's one of the biggest
artists in Atlanta right now that's what I mean I think he's fine I don't think he needs that you saidcho? I said Honcho find me. He's one of the biggest artists in Atlanta right now.
That's what I mean.
I think he's fine.
I don't think he needs that.
You said he's fine.
It's all good, brother.
Why are you tripping?
You think the man's fine.
You think he's fine.
That's cool.
Yo, get out of here.
Pull up a Drake song because they just not understanding us this morning.
So real quick, prom season has kicked off and the parties are already getting crazy.
So it was after prom, after party or whatever, 15-year-old Shia Park was fatally shot during the party on April 28th.
Three other people were injured, including a 14-year-old who was going through surgery and another teen who survived a gunshot wound to the face.
A 17-year-old is accused in connection with the mass shooting,
but they have not been publicly identified
because of their age.
So the city of Fitzgerald, Georgia,
issued a midnight curfew
stating that it was unlawful
for any minor under 17 to be on the streets.
That was horrible.
What was that again?
That was Fitzgerald, Georgia.
Georgia.
Yeah, prom season, man.
Yeah, and that's Jess with the mess.
All right, Jess.
Well, thank you so much.
No problem.
All right.

They want you guys to know that the car that we're giving away,
the Hellcat with 25K in the trunk, is actually in front of the station today.
So if you want to steal it, you know exactly where it's at.
Don't steal it.
I don't know why they want y'all to know exactly where that car is.
But it sounds like they want y'all to go break a window into Atlanta. That's crazy. Don't steal it. I don't know why they want y'all to know exactly where that car is, but it sounds like they want y'all to go
break a window into Atlanta.
I'm on Atlanta. They're not saying that,
but they do want people to come register to
win the Hellcat and 25K
in the trunk. So if you're around the station,
which is 1255 Makers Way,

people out there where you can sign up and possibly
