Good morning. How you feeling this morning? I got sleep. I wasn't out in the streets last night. I had a good time the night before, and I was responsible last night. Okay. No hookah. Lounge. No. No? No. Okay.

What about you, Charlemagne? Oh, I didn't get no rest. I'm going off like about 15 hours of sleep all week long, because I was in L.A. yesterday for a new event called Hollywood in Mind, and it's a new event focused on the intersection of mental health and the entertainment industry. And it was founded by Kathy Appelfeld Olson. You know, she's a veteran journalist. And so it was just an event to coincide with Mental Health Awareness Month. It was at UTA, the agency UTA.

Oh, yeah. So it was at their Beverly Hills campus yesterday. So me and my guy, Elliot Connie and Jay Barnett, we had a panel out there. Okay. You know, speaking on mental health. Dope, dope, dope. Yes. So I flew back. I landed back 1 a.m. this morning. Oh, wow. Yes. And I'm here. How was your night?

I watched the game. I watched the Celtics game last night. My daughter had a game. They won last night. Shout to them. She had a double and a single. So I told her if she had a double, we had to go to Dairy Queen. So we had to go to Dairy Queen. So I took her to Dairy Queen and, we had to go to Dairy Queen. So we had to go to Dairy Queen. So I took her to Dairy Queen. And then I watched the game last night.

So I went to the Celtics. They tied it up last night. And we'll talk about the Denver Nuggets and everything that happened with them in a little bit. Yeah, I watched the whole Celtics-Sixies game on the plane. Fell asleep during the Suns-Nuggets game. When I woke up, boy, the Nuggets was wiping their ass with the Suns. Game seven for the Celtics on Sunday. I think I might be there, actually. Really? You're going to the game?

My brother, he's married to a very wealthy woman, so they have a booth. Oh. A suite, I should say. Nice. Take advantage. I am. Take advantage.

That's your neck of the woods, though. Yeah, I'm from Providence, Rhode Island. So, yeah, New England. So, Celtics and Patriots fan. Okay. Well, Kirk Franklin and his wife, Tammy, will be joining us this morning. I'm mad I miss my man, Kirk, man.

Yeah, you missed that yesterday. Off the chain. Yeah. He's off the chain. Wow. He has a new TV show we'll talk about. He also has a new single we'll talk about. And I think we'll get that on this morning.

So we'll kick it with them in a little bit. And then we got front page news with Teslin Figueroa. She'll tell us what's going on with everything in the world. But let's get the show cracking. We got a brand new joint, Lil Durk's album's out today. This one features J. Cole. I saw you push it back. It did come out?

It came out, right? I saw him say it wasn't coming out until May 26th. I don't know if he was trolling or not. I thought it came out today. Oh, okay. Well, this is the single. It's J. Cole featuring J. Cole's called All My Life. It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. There he is. Let me tell you something. Cole is spitting. Durk is spitting. Jesus, that song is dope. My guy, Boolay Kev, said something a couple days ago. He said that Lil Durk has never had a hit.

No. That's what he said. He said Lil Durk has never had a hit, like a traditional radio hit. Like how Lil Baby's had a lot of radio hits and stuff like that. Well, yeah. But Durk has This Is What They Want. They had the record with Drake. But that was Drake's record.

This is actually Durk's record. That's going to be a hit. Oh, that's a hit. That Durk and Cole going to go. Oh, my life is crazy. That's hard. That's crazy. They both spitting.

Drop on the Clues boss for Lil Durk crazy That's hard That's crazy They both spitting Drop on the clues Ball for Lil Dirk That's hard And J. Cole J. Cole wasn't on for that Of course he did Don't say of course he did I mean of course he did It's J. Cole

Jesus He did snap though J. Cole said a lot of things That we've said a lot You know Especially about rappers When they Nobody knows these kids

You don't hear about them Until they die And we shouldn't And I've said that A million times Like I don't want to hear about you in Rumor Report if we never even played your music. That's the first time you heard about you. Alright, well let's get into some front page

news. Good morning, Tez. How you feeling? Good morning. Happy Friday. Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy, and gorgeous Claudia Jordan. Good morning. What's up, Hood Whisperer? Alright. Well, let's get into, Hood Whisperer? All right. Well, let's get into it. We ain't got much time.

I just want to tell you guys again, the Celtics beat the 76ers 95-86, and the Nuggets washed the Suns 125-100, sent the Suns home. Ebony K. Williams would be proud of Kevin Durant because Kevin Durant is not a bus driver. Okay, Charles Barkley told us this last year, and folks got mad,

but the reality is, KD has not proven that he can lead a team to success. He's a bus rider. Jesus. He's a bus rider? That's what Charles Barkley said, and it seems like that. Kevin Durant gets busy. I don't think he had enough time to click with that team.

He was injured when he first came to that team. I think Kevin Durant's one of the best players in the NBA. What happened with the Nets then? A little inconsistent. He didn't have nobody. Kyrie Irving wasn't there. Here we go. Here we go.

James Harden left. I'm not talking to y'all. Then Ben Simmons didn't inconsistent. He didn't have nobody. Kyrie Irving wasn't there. Here we go. Here we go. James Harden left. I'm not talking to you. Then Ben Simmons didn't play. I'm not talking to you. He didn't get a fair shot. He did have Kyrie for some of the season. He didn't have a fair shot. And when he had Kyrie, there was murder.

He writes you murder. I can't even believe he let that come out of his mouth. But okay. But it was inconsistent though. He didn't have a fair shot. Him and Kyrie Irving got swept by the Boston Celtics last year together in the second round. No, first round. It was the first round.

First round last year. They played with each other. Man, stop. It's the truth. A lot of inconsistencies from both of them. Yeah, but they didn't have a fair shot at actually playing with each other. Could you stop? No.

You got to stop. Teslin, good morning. Good morning. Let's talk about Jordan Neely. Now, the man that choked him is facing charges now? Yes, he is. Nearly two weeks after Daniel Perry used a fatal chokehold to restrain Jordan Neely on the floor of a New York City subway car, Penny will face criminal charges.

Penny will be arrested and charged for killing Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old black man experiencing homelessness and mental health problems, after he had been shouting on board the subway the 24 year old white u.s marine court veteran will face a charge of second secondary manslaughter which could carry a jail term up to 15 years now attorneys for penny said that their client along with the other two riders who helped restrain neely acted in self-defense so we've been watching this story covering covering the story like most folks have, and we saw a lot of protesters who were out, you know, demanding justice, and it looked like, you know, that that's what is about to happen. Yeah, that's what we said it would be.

We said it would be manslaughter. If he got charged at all, we said it would be manslaughter. But the people who helped hold him down, self-defense, are you serious? Yeah, how'd he get a self-defense charge? That sounds nuts. The people who held his arms down while he's being choked self-defense for them i don't think so how do you even come to that conclusion if one person that's choking him out gets manslaughter how do the two people that's helping him get self-defense that don't make any sense well the attorney is

still going to argue self-defense um so the the charge versus what they're what the attorney's going to argue are two totally different things so um expect them to say no penny was self defense as well but i understand your what you guys are saying which is what about you know getting the other folks uh arrested as well i'm curious though uh are there uh any cameras on any of the subways in new york not on the trains i don't ever say well when i was on the train i don't think there are because we would see more crimes and more things happening but i will say this it seems like they charged that gentleman just to kind of make the public be quiet because why would they charge one and not the other two?

It just seems like they charged it just to make the public be quiet and that guy will just walk away with a... He'll plea after something small. There's got to be an accessory to manslaughter charge, right? Yeah, because if there's one manslaughter, wouldn't it be all three of them? Because they all participated in what happened, right? That feels like that's setting it up

to give the other guy a self-defense out. You know, the aggressor. But everybody protesting, the city's upset. It's like, okay, we charge him and then you'll see it just, okay, we'll plea out to something small. I don't think he'll get any time or anything like that. That's what it seems like.

All right, well, Tez, we'll see you in a couple of minutes. Absolutely. All right, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent hit us up right now you know what I can't stand guys I cannot stand going to Stop and Shop or Walmart or Target and they don't have bags anymore

that ish irks the F out of me they do have bags you just gotta pay for them stop being cheap no but I do pay them for them the first time and then I forget them at home and then when I arrive and then you gotta buy some more then on my way home my wife says pick some things up then I don't have them first time, and then I forget them at home. So you got to buy some more. And then you got to buy some more. Then on my way home, my wife says, pick some things up.

Then I don't have them bags in the car. Then I got to pick up some more. It is annoying. That and the paper straws. I'm over that, too. The paper straws? Yes. I know it's good for the environment, but I'm over them.

I like sea turtles, too, but I just don't like the straws. Jesus. Go back to using dollar bills and sniff your cocaine. Stop using plastic straws. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on and get it off your chest. The Breakfast Club.

an attitude with me. So, there's this guy in my building that he sell weed and stuff, right? So I had met him like a year ago. So they had delivered his girl package down to my part of the building where he couldn't get it to the building. So he texted me and was like, yo, my girl's package is down there. Can you get it for me?

I'm going to come down there later and get it for me when I smoke with you. Uh-oh. So the girl called me and she was like, you're my man on the wear zone. So I was like, what? She's like, y'all on the wear zone. I was like, just get off my phone. I just got your package.

He's coming out here to get your package. So ladies, if you feel like your man is gay, please just leave. First of all, I don't like you calling up here telling Project Business.

That's the warm-up.

That's like the old high school, let me give you a massage. No, we became homies a year ago. I met him literally outside my building one day, and I used to get weed from him, and we became cool. I can tell you're smiling ear to ear right now, reminiscing right now. You sound like you're smiling. Like, come on, tell us the real.

You know what? Look, I need y'all to stop thinking gay men and straight men can't be friends. Strictly friends. Because we can. I ain't got nothing but a lot of straight men. Now, we're your friend, but we know that that seems like a little extra, Trav. Did you kiss him, Trav? No, y'all gay.

There's a difference, baby. Hang on real straight, man. Bye. Oh, man. 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. It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest. Wake up. Whether you're mad or blessed. It's time to get up and get something. Call up now.

800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? What's up, man? This is Sean from Queens. Sean from Queens. What part of Queens? Rosedale.

Okay, north side. Nah, we south side. You know that. Rosedale is not south side, damn it. There's nowhere near south side. Why not? Why not? Because Jamaica, Queens, that's south Jamaica.

Rosedale ain't no damn, you damn near Long Island. So, Airbnb, let me ask you a question. Oh, you used to go on the North Side? You said what? You were at North Side when you was growing up? I'm from North Side, Queens. I'm from the North Side. Of course you are.

When you was growing up, was there a North Side? Nah, when I was growing up, it was always South Side. Everybody said South Side. But we from the North Side. We had grass. But what happened? Get off your chest. What's good, man? I want to talk about that on always Southside. Everybody said Southside. But we from the Northside. Thank you. We got grass. But whatever. Get it off your chest. What's good, man?

I want to talk about that arrest. Okay. On the train. What's your thoughts? Yeah. I feel personally a resident piece of the man, you know? But from what they're saying, he was acting irate. And we have parents.

You feel me? If somebody sees somebody acting irate on the train, they want to maintain the situation. Do what you got to do. Now, this puts our parents at risk. Shouldn't end in a death sentence, my brother. That man shouldn't, you don't, that shouldn't end in a death sentence. You know, he wasn't. Absolutely.

You're right though, Charlamagne. I'm not going to say you're not right. But at the same time, to contain him at the time, you don't know how much he was wilding out. But imagine if every time he was also wild out on a train, they got choked out. Come on, like that. I said that the first day.

I said, you know, being on a train, and you used to have to take the train before, you would see people wild out on a train, and you would see people get their face cut. You would see people get punched in the face. You would see people get thrown acid on. Like, you've seen a lot of wild stuff on a train. So, you know, but, you know, you choke a man to his death.

You know when that man has had enough. You know what I mean? 15 minutes choke hold yeah and you're a marine yeah and it's three of y'all it's not like it's you by yourself and you you're holding on for dear life you know i mean it's three of them there but i also say you know there had to be witnesses so i'm sure somebody's gonna come up they're gonna take it to court and the witnesses will decide you know what happened but you know it's it's scary because i've been on the train and I've seen a lot of wild-ish, but three people holding a man down, I don't know. That man should not be dead.

But at the same time, here's another thing, right? Imagine somebody wallowing out and he let them wallow and they pushed him into the train. Into the train. But they was on the train. Sorry. They were on the train. I understand that. But people wallow all up in the transit system, period.

Listen, man, restraining somebody is one thing. Choking them out is another. If he was wilding out and he needed to be restrained, cool. But he shouldn't be dead. All the reports I'm hearing, he didn't hurt anyone. He wasn't touching anyone. He was just talking and yelling and ranting about being hungry. So I don't think verbal things he's done.

He said he's wilding out verbally, not physically. I wasn't dead, but that's what it seemed like to me. Yeah. I mean, we don't think verbal things he's done he said he's wilding out verbally not physically yeah i wasn't there but that's what it seemed like to me yeah i mean we don't know but i will say this sometimes those those rants and those screams and those yells turn into something else i've seen it a bunch of times on the train but he didn't deserve to die hello They tried to take me down. Fire. Oh, man. Fire, right? Fire. Fire record. What? Lil Durk and J. Cole. That record is death to my soul.

That's scary. Yeah, that's crazy. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got our guest co-host, Courtney Jordan here. Good morning. Let's get to the rumors. Just because I'm being quiet don't mean that i don't have that fire up inside of me to get you all together this is the rumor report one thing that i'm not is a liar first of all my memory is too bad to be a liar and second of all there's just too many witnesses and people know what happened people know the truth on the breakfast club i'll give

it to you all right pause from the fujis is suing 50 Cent and Kyrie Irving for calling him an informant. He's not liking the label. But he's been kind of busy here. So last month it was reported that Praz was found guilty of all charges for his participation in an international conspiracy scheme against the U.S. government. Now, allegedly helped a Malaysian fugitive, Jho Low, illegally funnel over $800,000 to Barack Obama's 2012 campaign. He also alleged to have gotten $100 million

to persuade Trump and officials to drop an embezzlement case they had against him. So, a publication pretty much said that he was an informant and Kyrie and 50 Cent reposted and commented on that. So that's what his lawsuit. That's why he's, you know, suing Kyrie and 50.

It's a little complicated, but. But this is why you can't be quick to repost or report whatever headline you see on the Internet. Because in most of these situations, folks don't read the actual article. They just see the headline or the blog post and everybody starts chatting online and creating a narrative and folks run with that narrative and when you someone with some status and some money if you spread one of those false stories you can be held liable but i thought the the publication was a reputable publication that that put it out there so if somebody reported from a reputable reputable publication but did the reputable publication call him a federal informant probably not i think no the reputable publication call him a federal informant? Probably not. I think. No, the reputable publication probably broke down what happened and the Internet created the federal informant narrative.

No, I think they did and they actually changed it after. I think they did at first. I will say allegedly, I think they did it first and then they changed it later. So there was a Chinese criminal and Pross was advocating to get him extradited. So he made a call to the FBI and then the get him extradited. So he made a call to the FBI. And then the guy got extradited. So it's kind of a gray area there. Yeah, I don't know.

Yeah, I'm not on this issue. I do see some headlines, though. Like, I'm looking at, what is this, Entertainment Weekly? And it says, ready or not, Proz found guilty in federal conspiracy after admitting he was an FBI informant. So, I mean, yeah, that story did come from somewhere. Yeah, it came from a reputable publication. So if somebody says it, I wonder how do you sue all those different people? Because if you say, let's say he's trying to sue somebody.

Easily. Like 50. 50 goes, well, I got it from this publication right here, which is a reputable publication. But they can hold everybody liable who spread that, even if it's false. I think he's going to have a tough time though. Remember when 50 Cent had the whole thing

with Tierra Marie and he reposted something about the sex tape? Yes. And then he got away with it. He didn't lose that.

Yeah. You know? I've seen it go both ways, man. Yeah, I've seen it go both ways. I've definitely seen it go both ways. I also do know 50 got a lot of attorneys so it's going to be a long day. It's going to be a long day at court, and they're going to be spending a lot of money.

When 50 Cent saw the article, he called him an informant, called Praz an informant, and he shared it to his Instagram page, and he said, I knew this fool was a rat. I'm glad I never effed with this guy. And then Kyrie followed up with, the whole FBI informant was in the Fugees for that long? Well, see, 50 is going to be good in that. I'll tell you why.

Because he never called him. No. Remember when Tony Yale was up here and Tony Yale was saying that he believed Proz was the person who told the ink that they were in the studio? That's what 50 was referring to. That's what I,

I mean, I'm not 50's lawyer, but that's what I feel like 50 was referring to in that post. I didn't even see Kyrie Irving posted, so I don't know. Yeah, yeah, I see it. I'm sure 50 got it. Kyrie Irving got it from Amazon.

From Amazon? Yeah, he got it from Amazon. He it i'm sure 50 got it got it from amazon from amazon yeah you got it from amazon sorry got so the car he got it from amazon 50 wasn't even referring to that situation they both be good i think it's gonna be tough though i do all right young thug hospitalized in jail and uh misses court hearing as you know he's in jail still awaiting trial for the ysl rico case yesterday it was reported that he had a medical emergency during court proceedings no details about the illness have been provided we don't know you know we have those medical privacy laws when asked about the hospitalization his lawyer said i know he's had some difficulty of a similar sort at the cop county jail a few months ago so i'm obviously concerned about his well-being young thug has since been released from the hospital with details of his condition still unclear.

That case has been crazy to me. Why it don't seem real? Right. This whole case seems like an episode of Powerhooks. It's really long. It's been dragging. Well, first they said they had over 100 people testifying. Then that dropped to 30 to 20. And now people are not showing up to court.

People don't want to testify. This one's getting sick. That case is all over the place. This is a TV series, 50 Cent. Absolutely. And it feels like it's going to end in a mistrial or something. I think so. I wouldn't be shocked if it ends in a mistrial and Thug comes home.

Because it just don't seem real. No. Yeah. A lot of drama around that. All right, that's it. All right, well, that is your rumor report. Now, when we come back, Teslin Figaro will be giving us front page news, and Tammy and Kirk Franklin will be joining us.

You know what I mean? Because Charles Barkley once said that Kevin Durant is not a bus driver. Okay? Ebony K. Williams would be proud. Last night, Kevin Durant proved that he is indeed still not a bus driver. He's just not. My goodness. So he's a passenger, not a bus driver. Yeah, still not a bus driver. He's just not. So he's a passenger, not a bus driver. Yeah, he's a bus rider.

And it's fine. You know what I mean? But he just hasn't proven that he can lead. He said he can't lead a team. He hasn't proven yet that he can lead a team to, you know, ultimate success. But even if they won, y'all would say he didn't lead the team. Y'all would say that's Devin Booker's team. No, we wouldn't.

Why would we say that? Because Devin Booker's been on fire. I don't think we would say that. Do you think people are unfairly mean to him? Kevin Durant? Just extra. No, I don't think so. I just think it's the scrutiny that comes with being an NBA player. Look, after what we've seen LeBron go through the past 20 years, there's no such thing

as somebody being mean to an NBA player. Because didn't nobody get heat like LeBron? Yeah, but I think with Kevin Durant, I think people are mean to him and I think that means him. Mean? How are you mean? I'm going to every time. Because it seems like he jumpsides. He switches sides to what's better for him. Where some players try to run it out. Aren't you supposed

to do that though? No! You're supposed to stick on your team. He went from OKC to the Warriors, then he won with the Warriors, then he went to Brooklyn Nets, then the Brooklyn Nets didn't work, then he jumped to the Phoenix Suns. These are all teams that are supposed to win. So like an NBA toss-up? Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Pretty much. Going to different people's tables and stuff. Yes, which people don't necessarily respect. They respect the days of Jordan staying on the team, Steph Curran and them staying and winning as a team. Right. Lillard trying to stay on the Portland Trailblazers, win on that team, not switching sides. All right.

What we got, Teslin Figaro? Good morning. Good morning. Well, just quickly, Charlamagne, no, switching sides all right what all right what we got tesla figaro good morning good morning well just quickly cheryl may know evany k williams would be proud if he was the owner of the team not riding the bus so she made that very clear real housewives of new york by the way she said don't date the player date the owner no no she'd be proud he's not a bus driver that's what balkan said he's not a bus driver jesus christ well where you want to start you want to start with biden's approval ratings yeah let's let's talk about Biden's approval ratings.

The most recent Center for Public Affairs research poll found that Biden's approval rating among black adults went from 90 percent after the first month he was in office to 58 percent. Now, the root of black online publication asked their experts why Biden's numbers appear to be slipping among black americans one of those experts was nina smith now nina smith is a political strategist and former senior advisor to stacy abrams and she said that inflation is only one piece of the puzzle failure to look to deliver on key promises like student loan forgiveness has also come to bite biden she goes on to say that if you promise to do something, make sure that you deliver on it. She also goes on to say that Democrats can't treat black voters like their support is guaranteed. And that means that you have to be able to clearly communicate policies and how they affect black Americans.

And that has been a struggle for them thus far. Now, Ohio State Professor Hassan Jeffery said that don't worry about the polls, especially before President Obama has a chance to stump for him again. So folks that don't like that report, take it up with the Democrat leadership that wrote it. I didn't make it up. That's literally what Democrat leadership is saying, which is that they're not doing a good job communicating to black Americans, you know, how this administration has been a positive or successful for them. Here we go again again every election cycle is the same thing y'all ain't gonna do nothing but write out there and vote for that man in 2024 knock it off don't fall for the student loan thing though because he did his part it was the republicans that fought against that and filed all kind of lawsuits they stopped right but but

the problem with that is and she even points that out in the article uh you have to be honest about folks in fact she said if you have a conversation with a voter this i'm literally quoting from the article i support student loan forgiveness but that actually happening may not be possible so we've talked about this before on the breakfast club just keep it real with people don't say you're going to do something and then not because trying to explain to them civics and how it really works by that time they're already disappointed that it didn't happen so say i'm going to do my best to do it i probably won't be able to do it i know republican leadership is not gonna allow me to do it and that's always been the disconnect in politics we're now stumping and trying to get support as you say tez they be volunteering lies right i mean i mean it's like like they

they want to do the right thing right but they just know that it's not possible so why volunteer to lie and tell us that it is right correct now we also see uh elon musk it says uh he's stepping down yeah he's stepping down uh he has decided that he will no longer be ceo an unnamed woman will start in about six weeks uh several of the tesla investors were concerned that musk was too distracted by running twitter and so they told him he needs to redirect his attention uh back to focusing on the vehicle company. Now, we know that he acquired Twitter for about $44 billion in October, and he immediately started firing executives

and firing hundreds of employees. He allowed folks who were banned on the platform to come back, and now Twitter is worth $20 billion, less than half of what he paid for. So bottom line, they told him to go have a seat in a Tesla and get back to work and stay off Twitter playing all day. That's the translation. He definitely needs to. There was a lot of cars that he promised that was supposed to come out.

I know there was supposed to be the Tesla pickup truck that a lot of people put money down on. And even those 18 wheelers, those trucks that were supposed to be all electric, that's supposed to do the self-driving, which makes it safer for drivers. A lot of people put money down on those, too. And they were supposed to come all electric that's supposed to you know do the self-driving which might make us make supposed to make it safer for drivers a lot of people put money down on those too and they were supposed to come out years ago uh and they didn't have it came i mean he got my hundred dollars on two of those so i need my stuff is this a real woman though or is it gonna be some chat gpt ai right that's what i thought no seriously there's gonna be a real one because he's too obsessed with twitter i don't think he'd want to step down i think he'd find a way out of that yeah i think he'll still be running it somehow some way what. What's that on your face, bro? Oh, just my ankle.

I had my chain on my face. Oh. Elon got mad weird, didn't he? Yeah. Oh, he said Elon. I thought he said Charlamagne. When was he not weird? Yeah, he was always weird. I didn't know he was this bad, though. No, he was always this weird. I thought he was a little bit better than this. I never paid him no attention, to be honest. I knew who he was, but

I guess Twitter made him. Twitter's like anything else, right? When you see these people get on social media and they start showcasing more of their personality, you'd be like, that is Zul'Khan. Yeah, yeah. The blue check thing was super whack what he did. Oh, how horrible. I think, come on. What's whack is people that paid for it.

We're going to kick it with them, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Guest host Claudia Jordan with us today. And we got some special guests in the building. We have Kirk and Tammy Franklin.

Welcome, guys. Thank y'all. My first time, y'all. Yeah, first time here. Yeah. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. Thank you. Welcome, guys. Thank y'all. My first time, y'all. Yeah, first time here. Yeah. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. Thank you.

So you guys have a new show, The One. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I'm so excited for wifey, man. She and I are going to be hosting this really kind of cool date. It's not a Christian dating show. Mm-hmm. It's just a really just good, dope dating show for people just, you know, trying to

find the journey and the process. Very proud of my girl, man. I'm really excited that she's getting a chance to, you know, shine her light. We're empty nesters now. And so I'm really wanting her to kind of just get some love and people to see how incredibly dope she is. Charismatic, beautiful she is. And I'm really trying to just kind of, you know what I'm saying, kind of push out. I like this.

I like this. So for people that don't know, how did y'all meet? How did y'all, how did he steal your heart? Or did he not steal your heart? How did y'all meet? Y'all been together for a long time. We have, 27 years we've been married. And our story is long, so I have to give you the condensed version.

We got time. We first met when we were 18 years old. We were at a water amusement park. So, you know, I had on a swimsuit, you know, looking cute. I had, you know, red lip, had my chardet going. And so I was on the outside of the water amusement park. Actually, somebody I was sort of kind of seeing at the time, we got into a little scuffle. And so I went outside just to kind of take a breathe. And so I'm outside, have my towel wrapped around me and these guys come and take it from me. And so then all of a sudden, this guy comes with cross colors on, fully dressed. Everybody else got on swimsuits, fully dressed.

And he had the guys give the towel back to me. And I was like, oh, thank you. So then one of the guys was like, you the one told us to take it from her because you wanted to meet her. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. So he told him, take the towel. And then he got it back for you. So he looked like the savior. Yes. So you it back for you so he looked like the savior.

Yes. So you set up a fake incident to look like the hero. I just want to say that I'm very glad to be back at the breakfast party this morning. But it made me laugh. That's playing. I ain't gonna lie. Because I was in a bad mood. That's flattering, though.

That is kind of cute, though. I was like, you did all this to me. I mean, he lied, but it's cute, though. To me, look at all me. Okay. It was cute. And I'm looking at how he's looking at you. He's looking at you like you got that towel off still he sure does like don't any looking like that he's like visualizing that town being like oh i love the complexity of the church guy staging right how

being ripped off yeah because he's into church in the bible but then like he has the background but well i was into a lot of things though but you know kind of like we talked about you know as i had this difficult kind of duality where you know know, I was in church, but I was also, you know, on the block and, you know, doing what, you know what I'm saying, young boys do all the wrong things, all the, you know, ignorant things. But, you know, was trying to be right. So, you know, you're always living with that Jekyll and Hyde, you know, kind of thing. And we still do it now. So, you know, I was just trying to find my way. You know, it's always a good woman that kind of helps give and we still do it now so you know i was i was i was just trying to find my way you know it's always a good woman that kind of helps give you that uh that special push absolutely

it's a happy ending so that's all it kind of matters yeah so why why this dating show like why is this different than any other because there's so many out there what i love particularly what i loved about this show when um it was brought to us is you have a bachelor and a bachelorette. You have a cast that's black. And then the bachelor and bachelorette are more seasoned. They're older. And so they've lived life. They're truly ready to find the one. Where typically reality

shows, especially when it's dating focused, they're younger. And so it doesn't necessarily mean that they're not ready. But when you're seasoned and you, like our bachelorette ashley is a chemist uh she already owns her own home uh you know brent is very accomplished she's in real estate and so they've lived enough life where they're ready to find the one and then to come alongside with this guy right here and to coach them on a journey we are not experts whatsoever but we've you know

experienced a good teacher as they say and we've learned enough and done enough to where we can come alongside and coach i beg to differ i hate when people say you know to be an expert you have to go to school for something or you have to read books but you guys have told us you've been married for what 27 years 20 years but you guys are experts well well well well well and the reason why she said it like that king is that because i think that within the culture when you start seeing couples i think that we begin to super romanticize and idolize relationships that we put pressures on people that we think that their lives are perfect and so we try to aspire to what we think that

perfection is and so we like to deconstruct that to let people know that just because you got time man don't mean that you've got quality in that that is true but if i was having a problem with my wife i would call you guys before i would call somebody that's actually read up on and went to school and reason being is which is my next question so what was the toughest thing that you guys had to deal with it and how did y'all get out of it uh definitely blending a family was one of the things when I came to the marriage. I had a daughter and he had a son and who he legally adopted daughter Carrington and just, you know, blending, blending family is is not the easiest thing to do. Our kids were so excited because we were their first experience of a two-parent home for both of our kids. But I think the adults around circling the situation made it harder. And so just being able to work through that process.

And then even right now, one thing I want to express is that marriage, as you know, it is seasons of ups and downs and you know we're empty nesting right now and so we've been empty nested what two years yeah but the pandemic threw it all the kids came back they came back home they came back yeah they came back and it gave kind of like a delayed reaction because the empty nesting has been harder for me because you've had a more delayed reaction yeah i definitely have had a reaction to empty nests sinceing has been harder for me because you've had a more delayed reaction. Yeah, I definitely have had a reaction to emptiness. His has been way more delayed where it has taken me by surprise. And I really think that we are going through the hardest season we've ever gone through in our marriage now.

Right now. Why? It's because right now there are there are traumas and experiences in our lives that are coming up in ways that you were not prepared for. Meaning, like for me, the adoption issues in my life, because remember, I was raised by an older woman. It was just me and her. Right. So, and as a young boy, and I was adopted when I was four. But she was 64. And so, I didn't get the chance to go to parties and go to events and hang out because she wouldn't take. I mean, at her age, she couldn't win. She wouldn't take me places.

And so I lived in a neighborhood where they were all in where everybody was seniors. So I lived a lot by myself. I was raised by myself. I mean, and so that that that that space of loneliness didn't do well for me. And so now that we're living by ourselves for me and it's pushed me back even deeper into therapy is that because now the loneliness and it's it's like the kids been gone their space is now that are too much for me to handle i never hear men talking about empty nesting and this is fascinating to hear because we don't hear this we don't hear and i love it and it's more focused on on you focused on the kids and what she's going through. But yeah, there is a side for the men.

Yeah. And I don't have cousins. I don't have uncles. I don't have a family I can go to and spend time with. And I don't have a lot of bros. And a couple of friends I do have. I have great two guy friends, but they have jobs. And they're busy.

So I spend a lot of time by myself. I write music by myself. I produce by myself. So, you know, just that loneliness. My kids feel that. And so I had I'm having the hard job now of learning that marriage and family are not synonymous. Right. They have two different things.

And it's funny that you say that. I think that's part of the reason why I always wanted kids. Right. My oldest is 21. She goes to NYU. When she left it's funny that you say that. I think that's part of the reason why I always wanted kids, right? My oldest is 21. She goes to NYU. When she left the house, that was my heart. Congratulations. Because she was the one that would, if I go look at a car, she's like, dad, let's go.

Bro. If I go to a baseball game, dad, let's go. We go, like, she was that one. And then when she has her own boyfriend, it kind of hurts. Bro, let me tell you something. I married Tammy not because of Tammy. I married Tammy because of a daughter. I fell in love because her daughter was five years old when i met her and she had these big old eyes and this

red hair and this raspy voice and i was like i fell so deeply in love with this little girl i was like and she's like you she she's one of my best friends right and so even her getting married y'all it was like all right We got more with Kirk and Tammy Franklin. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are the Breakfast Club. Our guest co-host, Claudia Jordan, is here. We're still kicking it with Kirk and Tammy Franklin. And how was the industry for you? Right. We always talk about Kirk and how it was for him and him traveling and the tours and the gold and platinum records and him living out his dreams. But how was it for you where, in most cases, you have to be mom and dad, right? You're taking the kids to the games.

You're taking the kids to the PTAs. I definitely felt like a married single woman. How was that for you? You know, the complexity of the industry that we're in, like we're in entertainment, but we also do gospel music slash ministry. So it has a different complexity to it. So my mindset is, OK, this is calling. So when you do something like a calling, then it it it helps, but it doesn't take away from the heart. And there were times when it was absolutely hard to be married

and feel like, you know, that you're a single mom. I learned to definitely not even bring things up to the kids until they were set in stone. I'm sure your wife does the same. Because it can change at a hat. And although you understand that that's hard, it's disappointing. And to be able to be real about that and say, I'm disappointed in this, but also understand and have to be the one to understand all the time. They get old sometimes, you know, as well. But when you we are committed to each other, I'm committed to him.

I knew going in. I counted the cost in the industry. There's cost. How are you guys as parents? Right. Because the cool thing with with sometimes being on the road a lot is you're the superhero. Right. But the kids, especially the girls, are tired of mom.

So when dad comes home, you are there running. They're jumping on you. They're kissing you. They're rubbing your feet, massaging you, cooking you food, drawing you something special, right? The boys are sometimes the same, sometimes different, but how are you with disagreements and arguments?

Are you in the middle? Like, a lot of times, the girls will beef with mom crazy, but won't beef with dad. So how are you with that as being a parent? Do you try to squash it? Do you be like,

that's their thing? I think that I definitely respect. There were times I had to definitely learn okay he he's got that this is important for him to have um and he understands that there there is a um a process a way of thinking i've been a little girl before but also too i think that there are ways that in which he has been very helpful and with the girls at times and i may help him with 27 years and the self-awareness and how you've grown to this now what advice would you give to

people because like you said earlier people are so quick to throw in the towel like it seems like one little bit of adversity it's like i can't do this it's too much i really believe that we as a culture would also fix this problem by not forcing marriage on everyone. It's like even when you see a woman, like think about how many times a woman may go back to her family reunion, whatever. If she's 29, 30, 31 years old and not married kids,

all the older ladies jump on her like that, you know, like she's a cripple. Like something's wrong with her. Yeah, something's wrong. And so all of these type of constructs force people sometimes into decisions that they're not ready for. Like, for example, me.

You know, I got married. But now that I'm much older and I'm talking to him, I was not emotionally, psychologically ready to be married. But I was in church. And the narrative in church is if you're living in sin, you're going to go to hell. Right. And so you're scared because you're a young boy you know you know you know you're here with them girls you know my career was taken off it had a platinum album even though i was in church and there was this struggle and so you get married not because

you understand the cost of it but because you are you are driven by the fear of the community that you're in and we all know any decision made by fear is not sustainable all right no decision made when you're afraid it's a sustainable decision and so i think that one of the things that we can do is that we can first of all let's pop the bubble that is romanticized it's like that's beautiful that's pretty but that's got the feel because everything on Instagram is the filter. So it's like we keep living for the filter, but we got to be able to show the freckles. We got to be able to show, you know,

the nomic. We've got to be able to paint our young men and women as they try to maneuver through these things called love relationships, the real pictures of what life will bring so that they can make sober decisions. Let me ask you a question. We had this conversation yesterday, right?

You married to Kirk Franklin. Okay. Great guy. Treats you well. Everything is amazing. Great father. Has money. Has money.

Not driving much. Sixth vessel. Treats you amazingly. But he has ED. Can't get it up. Y'all can't have sex. Not just once in a while. All the time. Oh, I'm going to answer that. Because I'm going to commit suicide. Wait't get it up. Y'all can't have sex. Not just once in a while. All the time.

Oh, I'm going to answer that. Because I'm going to commit suicide. Wait, wait, wait. Okay. Hold on. I'm out of here. Come on, Jesus. Let me ask this question.

I'm going to the upper room. Let me ask this question. So we are in the process of dating or we're already married? Most of these people are already married. You ain't going to work with that girl. I'm going to be gone. You're going to kill yourself. But I can't live with myself to me personally

that's different why? because it's not his fault it's not like you could be like you know penis get around

let me explain why it could be stress it could be yes but let me explain why different if we're already married to me

we're now entering the better for worse and so and that means we've had hopefully really good sex and if sex is all that was to our marriage then it's probably doomed because now we can't have it but if that's not all who we were and we come to that place will it be hard well yeah of course it's you know i love. I love being with my husband. But leading up to that point. Oh, my God.

You know what? You be coming over here and getting in trouble. Get back. Look how he's looking at her. Look at how he's looking at her. He said, I still can do that other thing, though. What do you want? Yes.

He said, I can do that other thing. There are other things that we can do. Correct. Yes. So that wouldn't be a deal breaker? No, I would. Boy, leave me alone. Correct. Yes. So that wouldn't be a deal breaker? No, I don't. I would. Boy, leave me alone. What?

Yes. She's a member of the other day. She's blushing over here. All right. So you would be. Oh, gosh. You would just be like, okay, I'm going to ride this thing out. Not really.

Well, not ride it out. I'm not going to ride it out. I'm actually going to pretend to ride it out in my mind. Yeah. I am saying. It's kind of hard to answer. It's what your man right there. No write it up in my mind. Yeah. I am saying it's kind of hard to answer this with your man right there. No, it's not for me. I am saying that if we are already married. Now, if we're dating, I'm getting to know you and you say we're not going to be able to have sex.

That's different. What about freshly engaged? You said yes. You haven't tested the goods yet. And then he tells you. I will have to ponder. Yeah. I would have to ponder.

I would have to ponder that. I would have to ponder. That would be tough because you're now telling me we're not going ever yeah ever it'd be simulated stop it but if we're married to me yeah it is it is now we're for better for worse and and would it be absolutely hard absolutely actually not but but now you're gonna give me a trouble but yeah I would it's

okay I like to flip the question on the men though because we did talk about you know from the women's perspective yes and how valuable

why you leave Mr. Kirk Franklin please come back please come back to your chair no no no okay say the perfect woman.

You love her. Everything about her. Everything's beautiful. Treats you well. Treats you amazing. Can cook. Everything. But when you go in there, you feel nothing.

It's the desert. It's the desert. Oh. Because I feel like... There are things you can... I feel like a lot of women... You can do things for the desert. I feel like a lot of women would write it out for men.

But will our men do the same? No, girl. They so selfish. Let me talk. Go ahead. You know, there's a Bible script. Oh, yeah. We're going to bring that up so we can do that.

You know, right? When that happens, it's like, oh, well. God will justify it. Come on. Come on, Kurt. I'm ready to answer. What would you, could you say? You can add stuff to that.

And you've had great sex before that. Can be helped. Yeah, I mean, you know, we'd have to figure it out. You know what? I'd like to point out how quickly Tammy said she'd rock out. And fellas, I have not heard the same from you. Yes, yes. Of course he would ride out.

He's joking. He would ride out. What about you, Envy? I would definitely ride out. Absolutely. Your wife's listening. Hey, Gia. Yes. It doesn't Julia Yes It doesn't matter

There's other things That she can do It's not just If that's a desert There's other things Yeah So you're rocking out To me it's not

To me it's not quite the same Because there is something You can do That can fix Correct Yeah there are things You can do Man you can't fix that

For the desert Correct And a lot of times When we're not responding Like that It's usually the man's fault It's always our fault It's never

I don't have that problem. Good. All right, well, don't move. We have more with Kirk and Tammy Franklin when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Enzi, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.

Our guest co-host, Claudia Jordan, is here. We're still kicking it with Kirk and Tammy Franklin. Claudia? What's the best thing about each other? Can you guys tell us, like, the best thing about each other? Oh, man, she's my superhero. She's, she's, Tammy's the best thing about each other? Can you tell us the best thing about each other? Oh, man, she's my superhero. Tammy's the bar. You know, as I say all the time, and I know we got cameras watching,

so this is something that I'll stand behind. If Tammy and I, God forbid, don't ever make it, and I mean this on God, Tammy gets everything. Y'all heard it. It's been recorded several times. 100%. You have witnesses now? Yes. Lots of witnesses. 100%. She'll get everything. Y'all heard it. It's been recorded several times. 100%. You have witnesses now? Yes.

Oh, yeah. Lots of witnesses. 100%. She'll get everything. It's because everything that I have has been because of her, her support, her commitment. When I look at these kids and the incredible just gems that they've become, believe everything, I'll go sleep in a cardboard box somewhere. And I mean that.

Now, that ain't just TV talk. If something happened and me and my wife didn't make it, I don't care in a cardboard box somewhere. And I mean that. Now, that ain't just TV talk. If something happened and me and my wife didn't make it, I don't care. I could care less. Tammy, you're my hero. Please write a book. Teach us. Teach the rest of us. But that's how it should be. If you're married with somebody, she has

your children, she takes care of the house and all that. You want your kids to have the best. And nine times out of ten, your kids are not going gonna be happy if mom is not happy yeah i hate that it's easy now like when you're in a good place but then people sometimes change when they're mad at you or resentful yeah yeah but you know on tape right now so well and i also live based on the way that my life has been constructed you know because remember my you know like like and i don't want to go into details even right now but i'm dealing with a new family drop i'm talking about that is

very very painful for me and you know you know and she heard me breaking down another day on the phone and you know like right before we came to new york i mean you know and it's just you know like my my my my past family and these seven things, they've never gone away. It's always something that come up. And so it's like I'm never living where the wounds get healed, whether it's stuff with my son or stuff with other family members. And now I've got some new stuff that is even probably the most painful I've ever dealt with. I got a voice message from somebody I haven't heard from,

that I let Tammy hear just yesterday, haven't heard from that I let Tim hear just yesterday haven't heard from in almost 25 years and it's like I can feel the anxiety and trauma even when I heard their voice message it's like you know yeah how do you deal with that though because you know it's well I don't come to you they come to you for love and help right because they they a lot of people feel like you know he's a man of the cloth he and I hate all that I hate and they come to you for it all that you know so who do you go to besides cloth. And I hate all that. And they come to you for that. I hate all that. So who do you go to besides your wife? Like, who can you lean on when you're having those problems?

You're having family problems. And especially in this world, there might be somebody you can't trust because if I tell him, it's going to leak to the public. So who do you trust? Well, first of all, you know, because I don't have family is I don't have a lot, you know, but my natural response is to be

alone that's my next so and so and then that hurts her and I'm trying to figure that out and then you run to work and you overwork as men because you know and then because now my kids are going I'll have something to nurture because as men we have to nurture so you know it's been it's been a hard hard season for you and how's the relationship with your son now is that better did y'all patch it up or still not having that conversation yet no it's it's it's not better and you know we just you know y'all just keep praying for us that's too bad i i want to ask him because i got to ask you what's your favorite thing about your husband i think his ability to make me smile. Like at any given moment.

I can be mad at him. He just will come in and just, which, you know, the day I met him, you know, he made me smile. He made me laugh. Towelgate. Towelgate. Towelgate. You like that? I love it.

You can keep that. But he makes me smile. He makes me happy. That's so important. Yeah. And he's my friend. Yeah. We're really my friend. Yeah. We're really, really good friends.

I think that's been part of, you know, people, a lot of people ask, what's the secret? What's the sauce? And we don't have, you know, this magic wand. But I would say friendship. But I'm sure you can relate to that. Friendship with your spouse is, it is so important. And it was important to me he didn't quite get it at first when we were first you know dating he thought i was putting him in

the friend meant friend zone and i'm like no i'm not putting you in the friend zone it's just so important and now 27 years later we see why gotcha now saturday night live you on saturday night live with uh jonas brothers yeah man how was that how did that collab happen you know man i just get caught it's just the most know man i just get called it's just the most amazing thing i just get calls i gotta is i gotta call from a rapper that you would not believe that i'm gonna jump on their wreck female rapper that it's like you'd be like yo kirk and so yeah you know it's like you know i'm really grateful you know i'm you know and i love music still do music i've got a new song out now called all things we're about to play it now

oh man thank you, man. Can you give us a hint who the rapper is because I'm nosy. It's a female rapper. It's a female. I know. You know, you would

never think. Which one? Don't say it. I just let the record come out. Yeah, don't say it. Don't say it. We want the exclusive

here at The Breakfast Club. You know what? Because if it's a rapper that I think it is, if he says it, she's going to go left. So let's hear it. Let's hear it.

I want to hear it. Yeah. You know, I wanted to ask you, I wanted to go back to something you said before you get out of here you said when i was like you know people call you because you're a man of the cloth and you said you hate that i hate that what what makes you hate that i hate it because once again people want you to do the all the work of getting to god and just give them the cliff notes like when i see people in the airport and say yo kermit pray for me pray I see people in the airport and say, yo, Kermit, pray for me, pray for me. I'll always stop and say, you know, brother, I will, but I do want

you to know he hears your prayer just as quick as he hears mine. People think you've got this VIP lock on God just because you do his music. Bro, I may be worse off than you. And I just think that these images of faith and marriage and all of these ideals that we construct in our minds, that we are not going to be better people and closer to the dreams we want until we realize and see that everybody is in the same boat with us. You know, like I hate this elitist approach that even Christians have when they talk to people. It's like, you need Jesus. You need to come to him let me help you it's like instead of this where I'm a patient I'm a doctor talk to patient I'd like to talk to people like I'm a patient in the same bed next to you and I need to tell you about the doctor uh when you see sometimes you see a lot of bishops and pastors and preachers right and you see a lot of the stuff that they're going through where they don't feel like they're doing

the right thing for their congregation uh how do you feel that affects what you do and affects the church right especially the one that you know in new york right now that's going through is is problems it just feels i think it it takes away from what the church is trying to do and i think it takes away from some of the good preachers and pastors and bishops what are your thoughts on that yeah yeah is i think first of all you know just much love to the uh pastors and churches that are doing good things you know i'm saying eric mason charlie dates you know uh tony evans kenneth omer you know i'm saying you know you know people like emmanuel lambert and you know triple e and cray and you know you know, Trip Lee and Lecrae and, you know, you know, Tim. Tim Ross. Tim Ross, you know, you know, you know, just. Scott Astor.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, you know. It's an amazing thing. Yes, yes. So, you know, there's some ones that are really killing it. And, oh, and that Darius Daniels. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And so, but, but I think that the light needs to be shined on them. And I do believe that in loving ways ways we do have to address the clown we gotta address the goofies because i think that the goofies and the clowns you right they make the job more difficult all right well we appreciate you for doing that thank y'all for having us i mean i'm gonna be like the the the guy in the airport we need you to leave with a prayer we need to leave with a prayer so man first of all man man father thank you for just this opportunity man you know um we don't understand why you always allow things to get so crazy in our lives we know the world it's bananas right now but pops i gotta trust you is i gotta trust that you know what you're doing with all of the hurt that people are going through i'm just

asking you please please please pop some kind of way man i need for you to just shed some light on some dark areas in your children's lives right now so many people want to know where you are and so i'm putting my confidence in you that you're going to show them that if they just get still and get quiet they can hear your voice because i know that you still got us i know you still love us and i believe by faith that you're still there even when i don't always feel you i have to remember that i know you and i and i believe that for all of your kids listening right now love you in your name jesus amen amen amen well there you have it it's kurt and tammy franklin thank you so much thank you and don't forget to check out the show may 18th 9 p.m on tv1

The righteousness of The Breakfast Club right there. Kirk Franklin. I don't know. Kirk Franklin is a little bit more ratchet. He in the middle. He in the middle.

He definitely straddles the church and ratchet fence. That's what I'm saying. I always say we the perfect balance of ratchet righteousness, but that's supposed to be 50-50. Kirk might be about 70-30. What, 70 what? Ratchet and 30 righteous. God's still working on us all. I think more church people are like that, and I think they should stand on it.

They're just being fake. He's being real with us. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Kirk's the one you don't want to mess with. He'll turn on you in a second. He's human. He's human. He's human. But I human. He's human.

But I love Kirk Franklin. Shout out to Kirk and his lovely wife, Tammy. All right. Well, let's get to the rumors. Claudia Jordan's here. Hey. Just because I'm being quiet don't mean that I don't have that fire up inside of me to get you all together. This is the rumor report.

One thing that I'm not is a liar. First of all, my memory is too bad to be a liar. And second of all, there's just too many witnesses. And people know what happened. People know the truth. On The Breakfast Club. I'll give it to you. All right, y'all.

There's some arrests going on. There's a woman that's been charged with manslaughter after giving illegal butt injections to a model that was a Kim K lookalike. Y'all seen her? They still doing that to people? Yeah, I seen that. She died. Yeah, she looked very close to Kim, but her boobs were like quadruple, whatever, E, F, I don't know.

They were humongous. She had the really, really small waist, huge butt, huge boobs. The face looked like her. A little bit, yeah. But she looked ridiculous. Vivian Gomez, 50 years old, was arrested at a Fort Lauderdale airport and charged with

two felonies, involuntary manslaughter, and practicing medicine with no license. So these people just take, not even a weekend course, they just kind of just get a hold of some stuff. We don't know what she was injected with. The family put up a GoFundMe to raise money for the funeral. That's crazy. And I can't believe women are still doing this. Word. I remember when Cardi B came up here years ago. I I can't believe women are still doing this. Word.

I remember when Cardi B came up here years ago. I'm talking about years, years, years, years ago. I think she had just started on Love & Hip Hop. Remember, she was on Breakfast Club, and she said, I could die any minute because I don't know what's in me or something like that. Yeah, because she said she went to a basement in the Bronx or in Queens or something like that.

Yeah, I just remember she had to do a blood injection. And I know a lot of people do that. They go to the, because they can't afford it. They can't afford the procedures. So they go there and get a $500 shot and $700 shot. I know a lot of dancers were doing that at one time, but it's just, it's sad because people are dying. I just don't, I never got into the whole big butt thing, you know, and I just don't get

the importance of it. And half these people just, the rest of their life is in shambles. A lot of them, right? That's crazy. But we come from a different era though. You know, born and raised in the 1900s. But you was in an Uncle Luke video, Claudia. I sure was.

Yeah. Go ahead and look it up. Bounce to the beat. See? You trying to put me on blasts just now. No. What are you saying? Why would you say that?

Because you didn't need all of that back then. You just need to be pretty. That's it. The 90s was about a pretty face. That's right. And everybody looked different. Now everybody looks the same. And it's all about a butt and big fake boobs.

They all look like ants. Yeah, but what do you do when you put those enhancements and then you get a little older and you gain a little weight and then that's those enhancements on top of weight and it just looks... Looks nuts. And this girl had a heart attack. People having heart attacks in their 20s because of this stuff. It gets in your bloodstream and then it's a wrap.

Damn. All right. Adidas to sell leftover Yeezy inventory and donate proceeds to charity after cutting ties with Kanye over the anti-Semitic remarks. Lots of products still in the inventory. Lots of product. But they're going to want, you know, they want to go ahead and make good on this and then do good deed. That makes sense. I mean, they're not going to burn all the inventory up.

They've been trying to figure out what to do with that product for months. Yeah. But so they're going to give Ye a product for months. Yeah, but so they're going to give Ye a cut though. Ye gets 15%. And Adidas is not making anything. They're going to give everything to the charity or just a percentage? I'm sure Adidas is going to keep some. Yeah, well they weren't going to

lose out on $1.3 billion worth of inventory. They were going to get some of that money back. Adidas was in position to lose $549 million if they opted not to repurpose the products. Yeah, so they opted not to repurpose the products? Yeah, so they were going to let that go. They let it die down for a little bit.

Hopefully people forget and then they'll just... No, it's not like they're backing business with Kanye. Let's not get that twisted. What a huge L though, right? Well, this is still...

This is backing business in a way. Kanye's going to get some money off of this. Yes, but they've been saying for months that they've been trying to figure out what to do

with the inventory. As people say, this is the gateway to open up conversations to start doing business. i highly doubt it because the reality is if they weren't giving this to charity people would be highly upset if they were just selling these and letting kanye get 15 they're giving us a small percentage to to charity and you don't know what the percentage is i thought i did see a small percentage i just saw charity yeah i didn't see the percentage but it says that uh yeezy brand is estimated to make up to around 8% of Adidas' annual revenue.

Big loss for the organization. But even if they give a large amount to charity, they're still making a lot of money off of it. Yeah, but the only way they can justify selling Yeezy product and allowing Yeezy to get a cut without having these Jewish organizations be up in arms is to give to charity. And I guarantee you the charities are probably going to be Jewish organizations. up in arms is to give to charity. And I guarantee you the charities are probably going to be Jewish organizations. Of course.

So next year when Yeezy has another line out they won't say the same thing? There's not going to be another line. You don't think so? You don't think they're going to reconvene conversations?

No. This is the inventory. I'm pretty sure this is the last line. That's why. This is the inventory they did. After losing like a billion dollars I don't know.

They're probably kind of down with him. I can't see it. They're just letting it go after that and just letting him start over with another company. I don't know. They're probably kind of down with him. I can't see it. Dita's just letting it go after that and just letting him start over with another company. I don't know. It is crazy.

Another company. I don't know. Y'all are crazy. We see this all the time. Somebody messes up and then five years later they go back to another company and they start all over.

We see this. After they atone in a really big way. He doubled down. Yeah, tripled down. Quadrupled down. But then he apologized. Cinco de Mayo down.

A week ago he said he watched the movie and the movie made him see that he was wrong. I'm not talking to you no more. It's too late. It's too late, Envy. I'm not talking to you. All right. You just proved it on point. I watch these companies.

They don't do it. I know. You think so? Yeah. Want to bet on it? No. Let's put some money on it. I'm not betting.

I'm a betting woman. I'm not betting on Kanye. Not money, Claudia. Tell him to bet his butt. Well, Envy, Charlamagne wants me to bet your butt. Would you be willing to bet your butt? Bet your butt. I put my mouth on the line all the time. So, listen, we're going to bet.

But you lose. You lose. I haven't lost yet. You did lose. Who did I lose to? It sounds like you're both winning. No, I did not. Yes, you did.

You didn't beat those charges. So, we're going to bet Charlamagne's mouth against Envy's butt. You know what? Every time I come here, it's something. Like, every single time. Something lost. You owe somebody your mouth. I just don't know who it was.

I have not lost yet. All right. You bet your mouth a lot? What's going on, Charlamagne? I thought you was in therapy. Who's your therapist? You need your money back. A lot of repressed homosexuality

here in the studio tonight. I don't repress nothing. I let it fly. Yeah, I see. Clearly. What'd that mouth do? Envy the butt? You good with that?

Is Gia okay? I'm going to call Gia. Oh, my goodness. Penis will do that to you, man. Excuse me. Where'd that come from? I have no idea. All right.

Well, thank you. That is your rumor report. Freaking, freaking Friday. Freaking, freaking, freaking Friday. All right, Shalini. Oh, man. Oh, my God. What am I on?

Oh, boy. Who you giving the donkey to? Four after the hour. Your mouth. Four after the hour, my mouth is What am I on? Oh, boy. Who are you giving the donkey to? Four after the hour. Your mouth. Four after the hour, my mouth is going to have a petty party because there is an injustice happening to a young brother named Michael out here in American Airlines. Y'all need to come to the front of the congregation. We like to have a word with y'all, damn it.

I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place but like a donkey keyhole okay now i've been called a lot in my 23 years that donkey of the day is a new one donkey of the day for friday may 12th goes to an airline that forbes says is the number nine best airline of 2023 american airlines american airlines i don't think we've forgotten some of your transgressions over the years, okay? When y'all kicked the good sister, Tamika Mallory, off the plane over a seat dispute.

If I remember correctly, the airline acknowledged that the company mishandled the seating situation and Tamika ended up sitting down with the CEO of American Airlines, Doug Parker. But American Airlines, y'all have been accused of racial discrimination quite a few times. Tlaib Kweli claimed in an Instagram video that his rights were violated after he was threatened with arrest and removed from the plane over the size of his luggage, which he says was cleared at the gate. And Sha'Carri Richardson was forced off her flight after an argument with a flight attendant who Richardson said was harassing her and trying to intimidate her over shooting a video and there was the brother uh a black man who filed a lawsuit in florida that accused american airlines of blatant racial discrimination for kicking him off a flight from miami to atlanta after an argument with a flight attendant during the boarding process so yeah american airlines american airlines we keep one eye on y'all at all times for obvious reasons but out of all the things that i've heard you guys accused of this one

is beyond despicable. And I don't even use the word despicable often because I got a list. And when I say despicable, I sound just like Daffy Duck. OK, you're despicable. That's right. I get to spitting all over the mic. So I don't use that word unless it's absolutely necessary. And in this case, it's absolutely necessary. This is despicable.

Would you like to know what American Airlines has done now? Let's go to Fox 2 News for the report, please. You can't do this to somebody that's disabled. Just say, hey, we lost something of yours, but we're not going to pay for it. But that's what he says American Airlines is telling him. This all started in 2020. Williams was flying from Indianapolis to Charlotte on his way home to St. Louis. The special made leg, I put it in my

suitcase. I put the sticker on it that says fragile. When I get to St. Louis airport, they roll me downstairs the baggage claim. I'm sitting there waiting for my luggage to come off and never comes off. Williams tells us he followed all of AA's delayed or damaged baggage protocols, verified what was missing and submitted a claim. He said he eventually received a reimbursement check for a little more than $600. You know, this is the cover to clothe. But when he communicated with American a few weeks later about reimbursing him for the lost prosthetic, he says a representative said this.

We don't have enough proof or enough evidence to pay for the leg, so we're not going to pay for the leg. He says the lost prosthetic wasn't cheap. Twenty six thousand dollars. American Airlines. This man's prosthetic leg. You should be absolutely positively ashamed of yourselves. OK, what Michael said is absolutely true. You can't do this to someone that's disabled. Just hey, you can't just say, hey, we lost something to yours, but we're not going to pay for it. It's a prosthetic leg. What is Michael supposed to do now? You're complicating his life and the life of others who have to interact with him.

You ever worked at a bank and had a one-legged man at the ATM asking you to help him check his balance? Huh? You don't know whether to look at his account or push him over. Okay? Poor Michael, you're just messing with this man's employment, American Airlines. I'm almost positive there's jobs your body parts get you. And now that he doesn't have his prosthetic leg, it's limiting his employment options. For example, historically, big-breasted women have worked at Hooters.

Right? We can agree on that. Right? Well, where do people with one leg work at? Huh? IHOP. Clearly. Okay?

But what if Michael doesn't want to work at IHOP? That was good. Okay? what if Michael doesn't want to work at IHOP? Okay. What if Michael doesn't want to work at IHOP American Airlines? All right. With all the bad press y'all have gotten over the years, the discrimination allegations, it would be incredible for American as a staff airline and mother effing crew to simply buy

this young man a new prosthetic leg. Okay. All y'all sent this man was a reimbursement check for a little more than six hundred dollars michael's prosthetic leg was twenty six thousand six hundred and fifty dollars i don't think michael could afford a prosthetic pinky toe with six hundred dollars okay listen if any executives from american airlines listen to the breakfast club if you're watching us on bt you should do the right thing and take care of michael american airlines with all the bad press y'all have received over the years,

this act of kindness would give y'all a real leg up on the competition. I don't even understand why this is okay to y'all. The fact that they lost his property, a prosthetic limb, and won't pay for a new one is inhumane. With all the hundreds of millions of dollars y'all make, y'all don't have $26,000 to help Michael out? It's not like it's gonna cost you an arm and a leg american airlines but that's what michael riding on your plane cost him well at least a leg he still has two arms but one leg man can't even spell out la a-l-a-h that's not how it's supposed to be this is unbelievable okay what should be a pr's dream y'all are turning

into a pr nightmare and for what this story doesn't even seem real. When I first heard it, I thought someone was pulling my leg. Okay? But no, it's real. And all Michael was trying to do is travel the best way he knows how. Giving his all, putting his best prosthetic foot forward. And you can't have the decency to cover something that you lost? You know what kind of inconvenience you're bringing to his life? How can American Airlines even justify this what leg do

they have to stand on okay what if michael wanted to do karate now he can only do partial arts because of the negligence of american airlines please let remy ma give american airlines the biggest hee-haw hee-haw hee-haw you stupid mother are you dumb that's fair i am disgusted and i think we should have a petty party. We should call American Airlines customer service line. OK. And have a petty party in Michael's name until American Airlines does the right thing and sends this young man money for a new leg. One eight hundred four three three seventy three hundred is the number to American Airlines and American Air is their Twitter. Okay. 1-800-433-7300 is the number. And American Air is their Twitter.

Let's go have a petty party and demand they do right by Michael. Okay, Michael, you lean on us and we will lean on American Airlines. Yeah, you could just go to the last picture. What comment you want to leave? What do you got Instagram to? Instagram, yeah. Instagram is American Air too? Sherman, really? What? All the things you said just now? What'd I say? What did you want to leave? What about you? What do they got Instagram to? Instagram, yeah. American Angel. American Angel.

Really? What? All the things you said just now? What'd I say? What did you say? I'm just coming to the support of a young brother. Checking your balance. Hmm?

Pulling your leg. Do you have a best prosthetic foot forward? Listen, Claudia. You had a lot of bars, but goddamn. All I'm saying is, what if he was heading to a party to celebrate life and the stanky leg comes on? What's he supposed to do? What's he supposed to do? Laffy Taffy? What's he supposed to do? What's he supposed to do? Laffy Taffy?

What's he supposed to do? I don't know. He can't. Petty party. He can't walk it out. He can't do nothing. Well, let me ask you a question. Do you want to put a sneaker or do you want to put a foot?

Do they have a leg emoji? Okay, if they got a leg emoji, demand justice for Michael. Oh, they got a prosthetic leg. No, they don't. Yes, they do. Yes, they do. They got a prosthetic leg. Go to American Air Twitter, American Air Instagram. Leave a prosthetic leg. I can't stand the new line. Yes, they do. Yes, they do. They got a prosthetic leg. Go to American Air Twitter, American Air Instagram.

Leave a prosthetic leg. Yes. The man that did get Michael a prosthetic leg. So you go to your emojis and type in leg, and it'll pop right up. It's a prosthetic. Really? First it's a turkey leg, then it's a white leg, and then it's a prosthetic leg. Go, go, go.

Prosthetic leg. Go, go, go. Thank you, Charlamagne, for that donkey of the day. That's your homework for this weekend while the credits are rolling on BET. If you go there, you'll see mine. I started it. All right, Charlamagne, thank you for that donkey of the day. I'm going to leave mine right now.

uh comes from uh white boy rick shout the white boy rick if you've seen the movie it's based off of his life he's actually the homie comes to all my car shows but recently he was in the news because allegedly he got into a situation with a woman where allegedly they were having sex and he called out the wrong name all right so we asking, what are some turn offs in the bedroom? What happened to you in the bedroom that turned you off immediately? I'm sure that turned that young lady off. Right. Yeah.

So 800-585-1051. Mine, if I'm ever, if me and the wife is ever doing a do and the kid knocks on the door or the kid screams or something, that immediately. Yeah. Like that, I can't it's just whatever does that happen a lot

yes I got six kids so there's always somebody you know knocking on the door kicking down the door mommy I need this it always always happens

Charlamagne what's yours what's the turn off seems like you're down for whatever yeah I really don't want some more I really don't yeah we know

I'm trying to think. I don't. Odors to me. Odors. Odors? Like a bad breath. Who are you dealing with with odors? People have bad breath.

Jesus Christ. And a lot of young Negroes don't drink enough water. Jesus, all right. Let's talk about it. 800-585-105-1. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday! It's Freaky Friday.

Goddamn. The Breakfast Club. 105.1. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our guest co-host, Claudia Jordan, with us this morning.

What's good? And it's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And the Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday question comes from White Boy Rick. Shout out to White Boy Rick. He supports me at all my car shows. But the question is, you know, he allegedly got into an incident where he said another woman's name while he was having sex. And him and that woman got into an altercation, I'll say allegedly.

I heard there's more to the story, and I'll let him tell it. But we're taking it away from there and asking what are turn offs in the bed for you? Charlamagne says nothing. Everything turns him off. Even when your kids knock on the door? You got four? Well that's different. That's not like turn off.

I consider that an interruption. I'm not turned off when they knock on the door. It's just you're interrupted. I gotta start back up. It's like the car, you gotta go Interrupted. a turn off is when you just like turned off I think

I mean I haven't experienced this in quite a long time but yeah I would think older like Claudia said yeah like someone like if a guy has bad breath

and he like licks your boobs and then you gotta stink nipple and he like that's you that's you that's you that's you or like I you. That's you.

That's you. I like a little bit of a pressure around my neck sometimes, right? If they do it too hard, like you're choking a man. Like, I'm a woman. Like, be gentle with it. Like, be strong. You have to tell somebody like that. Yeah, I'm like, too strong. Don't do it.

This isn't for you, boo. This isn't your thing. That would be messed up. You're all sexual. You choke somebody. You're like, eh, hey, hey. Like, it's not supposed to really be a joke.

It's supposed to be kind of like a fantasy. Somebody up here said something. We were talking and he said that when he's doing it and the young lady is like,

you know, are you there yet? Are you there yet? You know what I mean? Because that shows that she might not be enjoying it. She wants him to hurry and wrap it up.

Yeah. That's the wrap it up music. Yeah. But that's like, oh, when you get that, it's like, oh, man. But not for nothing. I thought we was having a good time. But not for nothing. The person you're talking about is big.

You know what I mean? So you didn't have to say all that. You said it. So I'm just saying. I did not say that. His name is Big Mac. That could be anything. So the person is big.

So just imagine, you know, the weight on you. And she's like, oh, you feel sick? That's what you meant. Are you right? I thought that's your man. That is my man. What's up with you? Why?

Why? Why? For what? What was that for? Why? So you're saying if she's on the bottom. Correct. If she's on the bottom, it's hard to be on the bottom of a regular size guy.

He said he was sitting in from the back. He was behind her. Huh? He wasn't on top of her. He was behind her. Could you imagine the weight behind her? Nobody's letting her get on top of them. But sometimes from the back, it really hurts, though.

Yes. Really? You really get to it. I said yes like I know, right? I said no. I know. And your voice went mad high, too. Like, you really meant that.

Yes. Yes. From the back, it really hurts. Indie. Yes. Yes. I hate you. Let's go to the food laws.

Y'all telling yourselves nothing right today. Oh, my goodness. Hello, who's this? What up, man? This is my mom from the east side of Detroit. What's up, brother? What are some turnovers in the bedroom for you, bro? Man, you know when you get the nibble on your ear and that hair stank, man.

So my biggest turn off is when we're tonguing each other down, we're hot and heavy in the moment, and then he want to tongue my ear. And I'm hearing that like nasty, lip smacking and all that extra.

How old are you? And I say like, I'm 31. Yeah. Because see, in the 20s is where you put your tongue all in somebody's ear. That's gross. Earwax is disgusting. Who are you dating when they got earwax? Everybody got earwax.

Why you hang up on the lady? I didn't mean to hang up. I didn't know you was going to go into the butt. I'm just saying. Oh, you didn't know? You've been doing this 30 years? I'm still here. I've been here twice.

Every time. You knew I was going into the butt. Hello? Hey, what's up? I'm sorry. We're just having butt talks up here. Freaky, freaky, freaky Friday. We asking, what are some turn-offs in the bedroom for you, mama?

To me, a turn-off is no rhythm, excessive pubic hair like that's too nappy, that's not cut and maintained, and just overall not knowing what you're doing because we too old not for you. For you not to be knowing what you're doing at this point. Well, men can always learn. Everybody can always learn. And they can cut their pubic hair off. But bad rhythm, you can't fix that.

Like, they have that, like, real quick, like, that rabbit thing. Yeah. Yeah, they have the ego. Like, they know what they're doing, but they don't. Yeah. All right, Michelle. So what do you do? You tell them you can't dance?

Just say, slow down, baby. Okay. You gotta slow down. Like, we're on different rhythms. Mm, Jesus. All right. Well, 800-585-1051 is Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And the Freaky, Freaky Friday question is, what are some turnoffs in the bedroom?

Call us up. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Freaky Friday. Talk, talk. Man, it's Freaky Friday. It's freaky. Call in now.

It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And the Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday question is, what are some turn-offs in the bedroom? This came from, I'll shout the white boy, Rick. Allegedly, it was reported that him and his girl got into a situation of him and a girl, and she said that during sex, he called the wrong name. So we're just asking, what are some

of your turn-offs? Hello, who's this? It's your boy Lovey from the Bronx, a.k.a. Mr. 13. Alright, Lovey, so what are some turn-offs for you, bro? It's Freaky Friday, so I have, this is the problem I have with Queenie. if you don't want a well-endowed man don't sign up for it i got i'll co-host this woman it took me three months

we needed a room she got dressed and walked away after she's doing it after she saw it she got dressed and walked away after she seen a 13 and a half. So I need women. Oh, you never met her. Claudia, this our guy. Lovey. Lovey's his name. He has a 13 and a half inch penis. Right. Okay.

So he says a lot of women are scared of it. So he says when, you know, women, I guess, walk away when they see it, that's a turnoff. So technically your penis is the turnoff. Yeah, it's you, bro. You can't be mad at her for that, though. She knows her limitations. But then they put restrictions on you. Like, I can't have a...

I can only have missionary. I don't feel sorry for you. I'm the woman attacking. I don't feel sorry for you at all. I don't feel sorry for you either. That hurts. You know how that feels like? Envy?

Charlamagne? I have no idea. No, I don't. I'd be scared, too. I have no idea. 13 and a half inches going in. Jesus. Hello, who's this?

This is Angela. Hey, Angela. Good morning. What are some turn-offs in the bedroom for you? I would say too much conversation, too much talking. What do you mean too much talking? Like dirty talking or like asking you how your day was? No, like, you know, like whispering things or people that want you to repeat things to you,

say this and say this and have full conversations. It gets to be a lot. I feel you. I had that before. My ex-boyfriend would ask me weird-ass questions that I didn't answer. I was ignoring him. I'm like, just shut up. Just shut up and finish.

I don't want to answer your questions right now. I've gotten that. I've been told to shut the hell up. Really? What questions did you ask? It don't matter. But I've been told to shut up. I ain't talking too much ask no matter but i've been told to shut up aren't you talking too much not everybody's good at sex talk like it is definitely a skill and some people come off they show how perverted and weird they are in that

moment like i like sexiness but then it gets weird oh you just talk too much like i think it's i think it's one of those things where less is more like i don't think you're supposed to have a whole conversation you can't hold you can't do a podcast you can't do a whole monologue it should be a little bit of like half sentences here and like a baby this you like this it's not that's right don't be asking me stupid questions that's right hello who's this i'm the stupid question what's up hey ralonda what do you hate in the bedroom i hate hard breathing now ralonda now i ain't gonna lie there's a lot of people out there that that don't work out So you're gonna get a lot of hard breathing So you're saying fat people

Peaches and Eggplants. Let me tell you what do good collaborations. What's the song they have before it? Child's Play? It just dawned on me what peaches and eggplants actually mean. No, it didn't.

You just caught it? That's what I keep saying. I mean, I caught it like this morning. He's saying eat your hole in the hoop. Yeah, but it just hit me. That's what he's saying, right?

No, he's saying like he's f***ing her. You can't curse now. He's saying like they're having sex. I thought he was saying eat your hole. No, in your hole. he's f***ing her. You can't curse now. He's saying like they're having sex. I thought he was saying eat your hoe. No, in your hoe. Like in your girl.

Oh, okay. In your hoe. All right. I thought you were saying eat your hoe. Eat your hoe. He's saying like what a headboard. Eat your hoe. Eat your hoe.

That's what I thought he was saying. My goodness gracious. Is that to Envy? That's definitely not to me. To the young nudie. All right. Next, we're going to take it to the West Coast, kind of. It's an

OGZ song. He's a part of Shoreline Mafia. Is it Shoreline Mafia? This is your segment. All right, well, OGZ, I'm pretty sure he's a part of Shoreline Mafia, and he got, they flipped Freak Elite by Petey Pablo, Be A Body, so I kind of wanted to skip to Bia's verse,

but OGZ did the Drop A Project which is hard so you guys should check that out too Saweetie just did this Saweetie literally just did the Freakily sample

yeah she did My Type hers is different though well My Type but I'm saying My Type was such a huge record when I hear Bia on there I literally hear I'm waiting for the hook

I'm literally waiting to hear that's My Type that's My Type well that's just you I'm not I don't I think it's way too like way too close to sample that song again but they probably recorded it around the same time she like just getting'm not i don't i think it's way too like way too close to say

that song but they probably recorded it around the same time she like just getting out to it but i think it's i described it already had it out it's his record and then b is just featured on my type was so huge i honestly i would have i wouldn't have put that out of so now nobody can touch freak a week and i'm just saying it's too soon like it like my type was just how long ago about three years ago and that was a huge record wow you guys are all hitting these oohs and a little strong right now like that i think jess's accent is rubbing off on y'all but shout out to pd pablo pd pablo i had some i had a beef a long time ago pd pablo was one of the artists that stood up for me so shout out to pd pablo always respect shout out to pd that's

what's up i'm happy to hear that i can't believe you guys are doing that to the record okay well anyway the last one um is another sample I hope this isn't a problem that he flipped it it's an artist named Nepa he's from the United Kingdom and he was introduced to me as he's the UK's version of Brent Fias and this song is called pay the price okay who was that again Nep Nipa. He's from the UK. Okay. Salute to Nipa. Liked it. It was cool.

I didn't dislike it. I gotta hit a whole version but it was cool. I gotta hit a whole thing. Man, you guys are just y'all are really tough today. Because I didn't hit a whole thing. It's Friday.

It's freaking Friday. Y'all energy. I didn't hit a whole thing, Nyle. And you played a sample and it was just cool. First you came for the beer record now you don't like the Nipa record. We didn't come for the beer record.

We just gave constructive criticism. I just think it's too close to the Saweetie sample of Freak-A-Leek and the Nepper record. But mad people sent... Bryson Tiller and J. Cole had both sampled the Deja Vu record. And what was Bryson's version of that? I don't even know. But I know Saweetie, my type. It was a huge record.

It dropped in the same year. And both were huge records. Which one was it? You can't even remember the name of it. Deja Vu by Cole. And then the Bryson one is... I don't even remember the Deja Vu record by Cole.

You remember that one. It was on the radio all day long. How did Deja Vu go? Put a finger in the sky if you want. Put a... Yeah, that was J. Cole.

That was the Bryson one. And the Bryson one was... I didn't dislike the NEPA record. That was right. I didn't think about you. Was that it? I don't even remember. But here's the thing.

I didn't dislike the NEPA record. It just didn't sound like nothing I haven't heard before. I'm moving on from the NEPA record because I'm still mad about what she said about the Jeezy and Bia record. But it's okay because... Salute to Jeezy and Bia. Salute to NEPA. Salute to all them youngins doing they thing.

All I'm simply saying is the Nepo record didn't sound like nothing I haven't heard before. That's all. All right. Okay. There's a certain sound that certain R&B has right now

and it sounds just like that to me. So you're saying he needs to think outside the box. That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Okay. Well, thank you, Nala, for joining us.
