That was after a breakfast club interview. He walked into the next studio and we used to have a social media person named Vanessa, Sluutha Vanessa, and she just asked him to do that. She was like, yo, what are you doing? Damn. He was there that day for what, like seven hours? No, that was another time. He wasn't there seven hours that time.

Let's get in some front page news. Now, last night, if you followed the 2024 NBA Cup, the Milwaukee Bucks won last night. They beat OKC 97 to 81. Now, Giannis was the MVP. He finished with 26 points, 19 rebounds and 10 assists. So salute to the Milwaukee Bucks. All right. Morning Morgan.

Good morning. Good morning. In the Charlamagne and Jess hilarious. Y'all feeling all right? Yes, ma'am. That's black and highly favored. All right. I love to hear it.

So breaking news out of the nation's capital Washington, DC former DC drug kingpin Rafele Edmund has died at the age of 60 now He was released from prison over the summer after serving 30 years or excuse me over 30 years behind bars And yesterday he died in a halfway house in Nashville Now Edmund was given a life sentence in 1990 at the age of 24 after being convicted given a life sentence in 1990 at the age of 24 after being convicted on drug charges and has been identified as the person who introduced crack cocaine to the district. Now there is no word or on his cause of death as of yet. So I thought I saw people say it was a heart attack.

It wasn't a heart attack. I do not have official word as of yet. Yeah, but I will continue to keep you guys posted on that now take a look because you know how things develop More news coming out about the death the deadly shootings in Madison, Wisconsin Authorities say the motive of the 15 year old girl has a combination of factors. Although Madison police chief Sean Barnes He's not yet ready to reveal those factors while the investigation continues. Now a teacher, a student, and a student at the Abundant Life Christian School were killed and it appears the student shooter then turned the gun on herself and killed herself. He also says investigators are looking at an online document that may be connected

to the shooter and he further described the aftermath of the situation. Let's hear more from Madison Police Chief Sean Barnes. We're looking into her online activity. We're asking anyone who knew her or who may have insights into her feelings leading up to yesterday to please contact the Madison area crime stoppers. At this time we cannot verify its authenticity. We have detectives working today to determine where this document originated and who actually shared it online. The past 24 hours have been a flurry of emotion, sadness, anger, disappointment, grief for the Madison community. Yeah, so police chief Barnes, he went on to say that everyone was targeted and there was

no specific target in that incident. Now investigators said the girl's family is fully cooperating and they have searched her home. Two people remain in critical condition with what is said to be life-threatening injuries in regards to that incident. Yeah, absolutely terrible. Let's talk really quickly about Luigi Mangione. He is being indicted officially for the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced the grand jury indictment on Tuesday. Now, Bragg also talked about the charges included in the indictment and in addition to the timeline of the crime. Let's hear more from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. This was a frightening, well-planned, targeted murder that was intended to cause shock and attention and intimidation. They include one count of murder in the first degree as a killing and further of terrorism, two counts of murder in the second degree, one charge of the killing was done as an act of terrorism, and the second pertained to the fact that the killing was intentional.

For nearly an hour, we allege the defendant waited in the area near the Hilton Hotel waiting for Mr. Thompson to appear. Yes, so Manjoni is still in custody in Pennsylvania after being arrested. Adam McDonald on December 9th. Now he should be. You're right. He of course is accused of fatally shooting the New York Thompson on a New York City sidewalk on December 4th. He faces 20 years to life in prison if convicted of first degree murder. The indictment also includes a dozen charges, including first and second degree murder,

as well as several weapons charges. Now he is scheduled to have a preliminary hearing take place next Monday. But I believe that has been moved up to this Thursday tomorrow upon request of parties involved. Now that hearing will be held at the Blair County Courthouse in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania and this comes as a Manhattan grand jury of course recently indicted him and Governor Kathy Hoco is like trying to issue that warrant to extradite him from Pennsylvania back to New York. Well he should be indicted.

He should go to jail for the rest of his life. Brian Thompson is dead. His kids will grow up without a father and the health care system hasn't changed. And this is not a precedent that you want to want to want to start. And I see idiots say we don't care about we don't care about corporate interests. This has nothing to do with corporate interests. This has to do with humanity. And yes, we wish the CEOs of these major companies thought about people's humanity,

but they don't and personally if I don't want something to happen to me or people I love I don't celebrate That's something when it happens to others Two wrongs don't make a right what he's saying or right? That's what you're saying. I don't know if I'm saying that I'm just saying that personally if I don't want something to happen to me or people I love I don't celebrate That's something when it happens to other people. It's quite simple for me. All right. Well, that is front page news.

Thank you, Morgan. We'll see you next hour. All right. Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open again. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club.

I called him big mouth cuz he called himself big mouth fat jump right so we're gonna see what he said about that He said he's not supposed to speak about Remy. He said he wasn't but he big mouth him so we go ahead what he said All right, we'll get into that next is the breakfast club. Good morning the breakfast club Everybody is DJ envy just hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club You sound like you just got probed don't ever do that don't ever Please don't So see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it all. So Fat Joe was a guest on the newest episode of My Expert Opinion with Math Hoffa. Shout out to Math Hoffa.

They seemingly filmed the episode the same day that Remy exposed Papoose for his relationship with Clarissa Shields. So of course they asked Joe about it and this is what he said. My sis never tells me our personal relationship business. But what I know is I left y'all last night, we went to Brooklyn Chop House, she treated what he said. because because of him she made me love him. Mm-hmm. Really love him. You know what I'm saying? That's my goddaughter's father. Like I try to tell y'all I'm old school, more rules and shit.

I don't like none of that shit. You know what I'm saying? What I can't do is stop it. Or they won't listen to me. For the first time she ever asked me for advice and said, listen, it's different. This your husband. Nobody come to my house tell my wife shit.

I can't get in the middle of that. That's y'all. You know I wish this didn't happen. Salute to Mav Hoffa but I'm just sitting here trying to figure out one thing out of that whole conversation. But why the hell did Remy have to pay for the 10 grown men dinner? Listen we're gonna get to that. I like the advice that he gave his sister though you know what I'm saying. That's different because of course this is his sister. They are very close and like he said he made she made me love her husband. I had to love her husband you know what I'm saying? That's different because of course, this is his sister, they are very close and like he said, she made me love her husband. I had to love her husband, you know what I'm saying? Because that's my sister, that was, you know, and then that's also my goddaughter's father. That was the most adult advice that he could have ever given. And then that also tells me if she went to him and asked for

advice for that, it was something still there. She didn't, she probably, I don't know, but she probably didn't want to leave her husband it sound like she still maybe wanted to work through it he said from the first time she asked me for advice so you know I actually respect all of it yeah same why did Remy have to pay for 10 grown people? okay maybe she wanted the treat maybe she wanted the treat maybe it was a holiday thing maybe just like I got this one I doubt that she took no Remy from a long time you know Remy is very generous she ain't never treat him to dinner though. Okay But it don't mean that they was broke men

I just want to know why Maybe she just wanted to treat I got this one. She did say last last last week what in the midst of all the drama She the one with the bag, you know saying so maybe she wanted to take our peoples out and I do have a rule I don't pay for nothing if I'm around somebody who's rich and in me. Hey y'all, I know that's right. If we have her today and you're rich, we'll pay for the dinner. That's right, but people must have been calling Pat Poos broke after that had circulated the conversation with Fat Joe because he posted this. He said,

Peace to my brother Fat Joe. I think y'all misunderstood his interview. I was not at Brooklyn Chop House with them. I do spend thousands of dollars there regularly. I love that place. Now, I, thank you for that, Papoose, but I don't think nobody thought that he was there because that same night, if it lines up, Remy says she came home and he was already there on the phone. He fell asleep on the phone with Clarissa, so yeah, she was coming in from the restaurant, so yeah, you couldn't have been there, you know, but thank you for that piece. We never said that she was broke, from the restaurant. So yeah, you couldn't have been there, you know, but thank you for that piece We never said that she was broke, you know what I'm saying?

50 cents speaks for allegations. So he was on episode a recent episode of flagrant with Andrew Schultz That's right. And I'm during the car. All right, and during the conversation, he explained, you know, you know, that's this nigga friend He said that's right know you know that's this nigga friend he said that's right I Know that's right. All right. He explained why he's comfortable making jokes about these sexual assault cases You're not worried Why skeptical some like Opportunists he's just yeah, they'll just throw out the f***ing mob. It would take more for them to say some of the s*** that you see these people say.

Ahhhhh. Look, you met the girl in 2003. You hung out with her. You had a good time after the show with 30 girls there. You just went, you hung out, right? And y'all just part ways. All right, so there's no negative things between it. But should you look up at the TV now,

you've been a success since then. Feel like that's my life, I was supposed to be there. And now I be upset with you and say something. Do you remember where, I think it's your baby march, where it's like she was kind of speaking out, and then all of a sudden the house just got burnt down. Yeah, you know, it happens, left eye. Well, 50's right, but then there's also a part of it.

People can just make up allegations and accusations. The beauty of it is the truth will always reveal itself, but by the time the accusations and allegations come out, think about all the things that you could potentially lose. Yeah, you probably lost everything, because people believe it. Like you said, they're quiet when you don't get convicted, but when they accuse you, boy, it's everywhere.

Loud, very, very loud. That's right, that's why when 50 said uh what did he say he said that uh he doesn't worry about things because he doesn't have anything but you don't gotta have anything. Yeah. People can make up stories everyday B. And the fact that they heard him say that that would make somebody want to come out anyway you know these days. But moving on, Lauren yesterday Megan the Stallions team filed for restraining order against Tory even though he still locked up how can you do that? So it's so yeah they did number one they did and they filed it because they're saying that

he is harassing her from behind bars. Hmm. Yeah. So they're alleging that he caused Meg emotional distress and he's causing more harm to her reputation while still locked up. Now, I just feel like there's so many other celebrities outside, outside that's causing them, that will be causing her more stress than him being behind bars.

I mean, he just trying to come home. I get confused with that too. I don't understand. Because if he's not directly talking to her, how do you let Lauren tell the story? Yeah, that's what I'm asking. No, I was, go ahead. That's what I'm asking. Is he directly talking to her, how do you let Lauren tell a story? Yeah, that's a mask We talking to her I understand the confusion because I think a lot of people are like well He's locked up like how so basically what they're saying is that? He's done a few different things that are basically like kind of like trolling or like poking the bear a little bit, right?

So they're saying that he remember when he filed To like he wanted to go back in and like look at the gun and the fragments and like he was trying to say, I'm actually innocent, you guys need to revisit this car like habeas corpus or something like that. Meg Seam is saying when he did that he did it allegedly on purpose because it was the day before her Amazon doc was about to drop and he knew that that would make people have a conversation is what they're alleging have a conversation about whether she was lying or not because you guys know that that's been the big thing.

It's like, a lot of people do think that Meg was shot. There are some people who think that she was lying. And then he's sitting in jail, a court ruled that, according to the court, he shot the gun. He was found guilty of the charges. But they're saying that he did all that to start up that conversation again, which that causes people to go in her comments,

that causes people to be just at her. Even, they're saying that this can even cause like Harm to her as a music artist because then she gets in a place what she's talked about where she don't want to do music She don't want to do anything it causes her to distress and she's even talked about before At one point even wanting to kind of take her own life So all of this then piles on there. They're also saying that well, and there was a big thing too about does it LAPD have the gun? I have the gun. Yes, but the LAPD have the gun or not have the gun? Yeah, they said they have it.

Yes, but the LAPD, yes, they came back out and said, no, we do have the gun because they also alleged that when he tried to reclaim his innocence and things of that nature. But they also said he's using third party bloggers allegedly to come in and spread false information. There was one blogger that Meg has a civil suit against right now for doing such that.

the early career podcast from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts. One of the most exciting things about having your first real job is that first real paycheck. You're probably thinking, yay, I can finally buy a new phone. Mm-hmm, but you also have a lot of questions. Like, yay, I can finally buy a new phone.

Mm-hmm. But you also have a lot of questions. Like, how should I be investing this money? I mean, how much do I save? And what about my 401k? Well, we're talking with finance expert Vivian Too, aka Your Rich BFF, to break it all down. I always get roasted on the internet when I say this out loud, but I'm like, every single year, you need to be asking for a raise of somewhere between 10 to 15%. I'm not saying you're going to get 15% every single year, but if you ask for 10 to 15 and you end up getting eight, that is actually a true raise. Listen to this week's episode of Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you get your podcasts. They actually went in and there's Megan's lawyers obtained Zell records from this blogger. And according to the records that Megan's lawyers have, they have payments, including a $3,000 payment in 2020, a $200 payment, a $1,000 payment, which they are alleging was payment for this blogger to spread false information or falsehoods as they're calling it about Megan, which again causes all the stuff that we talked about before. So basically they like, look, she needs a restraining order and it's a civil one, not a criminal one because there's laws that like you can't get a criminal order of protection

after you've already been convicted of a crime. So the restraining order is going to, it is going to stop him from talking about her or essentially go around it. Essentially that's what they're trying to do cuz she had that before she had the restraining order and she had the gag order but it was from 2020 to like 2023 and that's over now illegal or unethical I mean I know it's unethical but is it illegal um I think if you can prove that criminally I'm not can't answer that question I don't know for sure but I know civilly the way they have this set up if they can prove that what that blogger put out calls for Megan to not make money or to you know it was false any harm if and because it wasn't

true then civilly yeah like that's like uh Carney and Tasha Kaye right yeah but let me ask you questions so they have to prove it though there's a burden to prove even with the proceedings now you you have to like I can't put out a proceeding on on somebody's birthday because it might char it might cause harm Or I put it out before her doc like it's a proceeding it's a court proceeding you should be able to put out a court proceeding Whenever you want right or is that considered? So you mean like when they're following for so you just said that he put out a proceeding the day before her Amazon thing Drop and if he did that why would that be a problem now? You have to be no trying to allege at the time

And he knew it was stir up these nick these negative things because of what they're claiming and the stuff that they keep claimed And it wasn't true. Do you get what I'm saying? So it's like the non-truth that's the burden of them proving that and then that costing them or Megan harm by saying she can't make money She can't think she's being attacked his man is trying to come home Anyway, thank you. Let's just learn. This man is trying to come home. Anyway, thank you, Latigius Lawrence. You're welcome. Thank you. All right. That's Jesse with the mess.

Now Yannis had 26 points, 19 rebounds and 10 assists. So congratulations to the Milwaukee Bucks. Good morning Morgan. Good morning Envy, Charlamagne and Jess. And happy Wednesday to y'all. President-elect Donald Trump, he is considering intervening in Congress's potential ban on TikTok. How important is TikTok to you guys?

Under federal law, TikTok must cut ties with its Chinese parent company by mid January, I believe the date is January 19th, right before inauguration, or be banned in the United States. Now this comes as TikTok is asking the Supreme Court to block a law that could ban the video app. The law which requires it to be sold or shut down again goes in effect on January 19th. Now TikTok on Monday petitioned the high court to stop the law arguing it violates the company's first amendment free speech rights. The company has or the app has around 170 million users in the U.S. Now Trump spoke to the media on Monday from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida. And here's what he had to say about the TikTok ban and what he may do when he's in office.

We'll take a look at TikTok. You know, I have a warm spot in my heart for TikTok because I won Youth by 34 points. And there are those that say that TikTok has something to do with that. Now, Joe Rogan did and some of the other people that were recommended by my son, Barron Enu, Enu names. I said, who is that? Tell me who's that? Dad, you got to be kidding. I can't believe you don't know. And I did those interviews and it was actually sort of cute. Do you want to know the truth? But we did them and that had an impact. But TikTok had an impact. And so we're taking a look at it.

So any thoughts on that? You guys, is it TikTok that important to you guys? People you know? What do you think about this band? I mean, it's important to my son, but it's not important to me. That's not one of my heavily engaging social medias. I know it's going to affect a bunch of kids, though, a bunch of kids. And you know, influencers, you know, who make a lot of money.

TikTok makes you more money than Instagram. You know what I'm saying? So I love it. Like you said, it doesn't affect me, but my kids, my daughters are on there because they have a little dance group where they do dances and they follow and it's Short so they watch it on tik-tok So they watch those dance groups and hashtag dance and all that so it'll affect them But I love one thing Donald Trump says you can really tell that Donald Trump listened to the younger people around him

It was in his son. It listen to his son didn't know what his son was talking about, but was like, yo, you know what? I'm gonna trust my son. I don't know who this dude is, but if my son goes his way, and it helped him. Well, they don't have to ban it. They don't gotta ban it. Just sell it to somebody American.

Like Frank McCord and Project Liberty wanna buy it. So, I mean, don't ban it. Just sell it to somebody American. Yeah, there's a bunch of people who wanna buy it, I see. All right, well, during that same presser, President-elect Trump says Mexico and Canada are on notice over the border crisis. Now he criticized the Biden administration over reports. It's auctioning off pieces of the border wall. Let's hear more from Trump on the border. And what they're doing

is really an act. It's almost a criminal act. They know we're gonna use it. And if we don't have it, we're gonna have to rebuild it. Yeah, so he touched on, of course, the border wall. He touched on several other subjects. He said he spoke to Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who once again promised all hell would break loose if Hamas doesn't release the hostages before he takes office. Trump said he's a big believer in the polio vaccine, also

speaking to reports that Health and Human Services nominee Robert F. Kennedy wants to revoke its approval. So Trump is, I guess, on, he's gearing up for the job. In other news, in New York, a city judge is denying Mayor Eric Adams his attempt to dismiss one of the federal corruption charges he faces. Manhattan federal court Judge Dale Ho is disagreeing with Adams' claim regarding the bribery count. Now Adams' lawyer had argued that the allegation doesn't meet the legal standard for bribery. Adams pleaded not guilty in September to an indictment accusing him of taking legal campaign

money and bribes like airline perks from the Turkish government. Meanwhile, on Monday, President-elect Donald Trump again said he would consider or look at pardoning Adams downplaying the travel upgrades and adding that Adams was treated unfairly. And switching gears, New York City Mayor Eric Adams is considering using executive order to override the city sanctuary city laws, city sanctuary city laws in order to address criminal migrants. Let's hear from Mayor Eric Adams regarding dangerous migrants. Many dangerous gangs are in our city. ICE would like to go after them. We should be coordinating to go after dangerous people.

Of course, Adams met with Trump's incoming border czar last week, and he talked about how to go after violent migrant offenders. Now critics have argued that Adams, of course he's doing all of this surrounding his federal corruption charges, of course trying to gain favor with Trump and his incoming administration. It's amazing to me how those elected officials are a year too late on that rhetoric though. People in those neighborhoods were saying those things a year ago. They was telling you about the gangs in those neighborhoods a year ago and they was dismissing

those folks and saying those folks were spreading MAGA messaging. But if they literally would have just listened to the people in the community a year ago and listened to what the people were saying, they would have realized these people aren't anti-immigrant. They just want their communities to be safe. It's just that simple. Well, let's switch gears really quickly to Virginia High School.

A principal of a high school is apologizing after a teacher passed around a piece of raw cotton. I wanna hear you guys' thoughts on this. Raw cotton during an advanced history lesson on the invention of the cotton gin. Now, Pastor Michelle Thomas, president of Loudoun County NAACP, says she received a complaint about the lesson

at Riverside High School. Let's hear more from Pastor Michelle Thomas from the NAACP. Black students were extremely embarrassed and humiliated. In some sections of the class, we had students that were actually laughing and making jokes. So in a letter to parents, the school's principal said administrators, teachers, and counselors will work together to support the students involved and promise to be better prepared in the future. The school district says, the teacher should have realized

the subject was sensitive for some students. It adds that its policies require that parents be notified before controversial topics are discussed in the classroom, but in this case, that did not happen. Passing a piece of cotton around, is that wrong? What you guys think? I need more context. That don't sound wrong. They say black people was holding, only black people touched the cotton. They just passed cotton and said this is where it came from,

right? By the way, American history is controversial. So I need to get permission from parents to talk about history. Well, yeah, when you start to think about some of the schools, you know, where some subject matters are starting to be banned. Well yeah, especially with the racial undertones. But they're not being banned because black people want them banned. They're being banned because these white folks don't be wanting real history taught about America. And the gag is sometimes those be the students that be the most uncomfortable.

So I mean... I don't, like Shal like like Sean said I need more context But if they're just passing around cotton to show what raw cotton is and how it was created from the cotton gin I don't see nothing wrong with that. I think That remember we've reported stories. We had stories about Projects where white student I mean white teachers are making black students That's different like that for plays and stuff like that. But this, no, I don't think it's. This is not so much a problem.

And I think it actually, to add context, if you ever held a piece of cotton that further gives you context of what, you know, maybe slaves went through because. If you said the teacher was under fire because she had students picking raw cotton during the history lesson, that would be different. That's what I'm saying.

But just passing it around, touching it, to talk about the invention of the cotton gin Slavery, I don't I don't I don't see the problem. Yeah, that sounds crazy. This is literally the most sensitive insensitive generation ever sensitive because no no sensitive Yeah, because they'll when it comes to something like United I can't see you'll kill, they'll be like, great, rebel against the machine, you know, the healthcare system sucks,

people should get shot down in the street, but then, oh my God, you got us touching cotton? You passing around rotten cotton in the classroom? Like, come on, man. I couldn't agree more with that. Insensitive and sensitive, yeah. Yeah, all right, so yeah, that's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood, follow me on social at Morgan Media and for more news coverage follow at Black Information Network,

download the free iHeartRadio app and visit BINnews.com. Thank you Morgan. Thank you girl. All right. When we come back, Cordae will be joining us. His new album is out right now to Crossroads. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody it's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club we got a special guest in the building. Yes indeed. We got the brother Cordae welcome back. What's up y'all how y'all feeling? What's up my brother man? I feel good I got a third Breakfast Club interview man that's tight man a lot of people don't get to the third one man. Man that's true. Yeah that's true. Never thought that. Well, how you feeling? Happy holidays, man.

I appreciate y'all. I'm feeling good, man. You know, just landed this morning, so I'm good. I feel like the Crossroads, which is your new project, I feel like it should be in a lot of rap album of the year categories. I concur. Yeah.

I agree. Why do you think it's not? Because all the black people got fired at Atlantic, so it ain't no team anymore to push out. Jesus. Oh my goodness. Look at his face. Just start like that.

You know what? Well, God has a store for me no man can get in the way of. And I think post-album marketing is just as important, if not more important, than pre-album marketing. You know what I'm saying? Like, I've had albums to where they really get their legs like six months later after it comes out, you know what I'm saying? You still, you got to tour, you got to, I mean I was been out a month and I'm doing

this with y'all. It's going gonna be a bunch of new people who may not have even known I dropped something that see this so I think post album post-release marketing is just like super important you know you know we had a boss man D-Law up here and he said that he values reaction over sales okay you consider successful this album or any other I guess it depends on how you define reaction so but I guess how people I don't know because I'm an artist consider successful this album. I've been getting a lot of amongst this album a lot of people telling me it's my best work I'm seeing it online a bunch of people rock with it but for me it's when I'm performing it that validation for me is when I'm performing it and people are like reciting the lyrics to me people are coming to see me when I'm out and about

and people are coming up like yo this line like just really registered with me and like this song really connected with me you know me and my family talked about this and so um I guess that's the validation more so. So that's success to you when people know your stuff, listen to your stuff, your chord, you don't need a number to make it successful or do you? No, just more so I think to the point we just made earlier and even the boss D-Lo's point is just like people liking it, people enjoying it. It does feel good when people enjoy your music, right?

As an artist you gotta have a sense of like not giving a f***. You gotta like when you're in there creating artist you got to have a sense of like not giving a you got It like when you in there creating and you put it out like y'all you got to think like I don't give a people Think like truly that's the only way you're gonna ever put anything out right but at the same token It feels really good when people actually do like the work that you put now So that feels good to get such like positive like feedback from real people and fans That's out there that I'm meeting in real life and like fans online but then also again that validation for me is when I'm performing it and people are rapping the lyrics back to me coming to see me perform

the music so validation comes in a multitude of ways for sure. Why is it called the Crossroads? You said it's your third time up here, it's also your third album. This is the Crossroads, does that have something to do with your personal life how you feel at what point in your life are you right now yeah I feel dying or something oh my god the Crossroads can mean a number of things sir but I did sample yeah on the intro but more so for me it well I had to pay homage if I'm a call album to Crossroads you know I gotta bring some bone thugs in it but for me just more so it's

like when I was making this the Crossroads represent for me is like not necessarily know where I'm going and when I was making this album I kept saying I'm at a Crossroads I'm at a Crossroads I'm at a Crossroads I say it like on like several different songs before I even knew the title of the project and so I'm like why I keep saying this in music am I at a crossroads? You know quarterlife crisis is like a real thing Water life crazy. Yeah, do you never heard of that? No You know, I think somebody I forgot who was a artist made an album called quarterlife crisis I can't think of the name of it. I don't think it was like a really big album

But like I looked at it's a thing. Oh, you you now? 30? No Oh my god, I'm 27, bro I mean, I'm a fresh 27 too, but um, but that's it but even that 27 club, you know, not to speak that energy I'm gonna live a long prosperous life. But um, yeah, just more so the the feeling of unknowing of where I'm going next you know what I'm saying and that's an exciting thing but it's also it's scary honestly so that's how I came up with the crossroads. You don't believe in vision boards and stuff like that? Like I mean cuz you know they always say you can tell you God your plans but he might God will laugh at you. Like your good plan is God will laugh. Yeah that's a um a proverb but um I think it's a Yiddish proverb but um I say all this to say yeah I definitely

make vision boards. I do like a planner at the end of every year beginning the next year. I've been doing a, I write in my little notebook while I journal a lot and honestly yo I knocked out a bunch of stuff that I wrote down. I did like a thought bubble of goals more so at the end of last year and I knocked out a bunch of those stuff like one of my thought bubbles was like to have a song with with Yeah, formerly known as Kanye West that was on my thought bubble So yeah, I do vision boards I write down goals and dreams and stuff

But I haven't done a vision board since 2018 so I I literally thought about that like a couple days I'm like not at the end of this year I'm gonna do another vision board But I always like write down my goals and stuff for the next year for sure. How has your life changed now that you have a child right? Because you know he's one years old? Yeah one and a half. One and a half years?

Yes sir. So how has things changed as a young father? Yeah for me it's more having a respect for my time you know what I'm saying being more like disciplined when it comes to my time and also having more respect for other people's time you know because I'm like I want people to respect my time because I got kids I can you know when I leave the house it needs to be something important or something that I love to do something that's fulfilling fulfillment for me is going into the studio enjoying good times with friends you know my job is um I mean you know this is essentially but I want this doesn't even

feel like a job to me though to be honest. But I say this to say- You want to take your coat off. Yeah, no exactly. It's a fresh coat. But I say all this to say, yeah when I leave the house it has to be something important. So it just really has me focused on time management versus before.

You know as an artist you'll be in the studio from like 9pm to 6am one day, then the next day it might be from like 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. one day then the next day It might be like from 7 p.m. To 3 a.m. So you kind of all over the place versus like when since I had a daughter it's like now I'm in the studio from 9 a.m To 6 p.m. 6 days a week and then three out of those six days I come back to the studio from like 10 p.m. To 4 a.m So it's more of like a regimen of me like recording and stuff and I think I'm more productive now because I don't take my time for granted. You know? That feel like work though?

Like if you set like work hours 9 to 6 because creativity comes all times of day all times of night. Yeah that's why I do that. That's why I do three times a day I do it at night too but I've noticed all the most successful artists that I've talked with or linked with they work like that. Like Pharrell he works like from like 9am to like 3am. He works at like a 9 to 5. I've seen him somewhere.

Eminem is in the studio every day from 9 to 5. He takes a lunch break at noon. You know what I'm saying? A bunch of other successful artists, I know they're like on a regimented schedule because where I guess motivation is low, that's where discipline kicks in. Or inspiration is low. That's where discipline comes in. And what I've learned too is like every verse that where discipline kicks in. Inspiration is low, that's where discipline comes in. What I've learned too is every verse that I write is equity.

Whether that verse makes the album or not, that verse can be used for, let's say somebody wants me on their song, I can use that verse for that song, I can use that verse for a movie sync, a video game sync. It doesn't feel like work to me above all else because like I love doing this. Like I love like being in the dojo if you would, you know, and I switch up the times and locations of where I cook at. Like I might like rent out an Airbnb for like two months, bring all my studio equipment there and we just creating out of there.

I might, you know, I find creative ways to get creative. All right, we got more with Cordae when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy Jess Hilarious. Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Now, we're still kicking it with Cordae. So what's your relationship with Wayne?

Oh, Wayne is the one. I've gained so many gems from Wayne. Like honestly, like when it comes to creativity, when it comes to creating music, like he gave me some gems of like you have to treat every single song like it's people's first time hearing you. And it sounds so simple, but it like lit a fire under my brain of like, nah son, like

that is, yo, it's so simple, but it says so much of like, what happens is I've been blessed. I have like a core audience and the core fans that like rocks with me no matter what I put out, but that can also become a hindrance because you in the studio you like yo my fans gonna love this regardless like no matter what I do versus you taking that approach of like I gotta make a first impression on people I gotta treat every song like it's people's first time hearing it it makes you like want to give it your all if that makes sense and want to make sure like yo is this worth hearing you want to make a good first impression and the fan that way the fans that you already have they're gonna be

like oh my god this is the greatest thing in the world and for somebody who's like 50 50 on you who may buy okay I heard a song I heard a freestyle I don't know like that here a song then or album then they like oh no like they legit you know I think that was a huge thing I learned from Wayne and also like that work ethic just by just what he teaches by by doing you know what I'm saying like his I've Been able to be blessed to watch him up close to his work ethic is like incredible and his love for music It just never goes anywhere And you understand why he sold like 300 million records and been he's like hip-hop's Michael Jackson if you would because if you think about it

There's not that many people that were like child stars That went on to become superstars and more successful as they get older You know what I'm saying? How many songs y'all got in the vote? Um one joint we got one on like on release joint. Okay. Yeah that that mentorship and that guidance is like You is you can't put a price tag. How'd y'all meet? I did a interview with he had a young Money, not had, he has a Young Money radio Oh the Apple Show. Apple Music, yeah so we started with that. Then I got his number, he shot me his number through there

And it's just been like back and forth since then you know. And the song 06 Dreaming. Yeah. Talk about your mom and her musical dreams and how she tried out for making a band and American Idol. Yep. And you sampled one of her old songs, how she feel about that when she heard it? Oh she liked it, she liked it a lot. Yeah, um, she definitely liked it cuz it's just like a that's one of my favorite songs Cuz it's um, obviously it's close to home

but it's like a story of irony of just like and also a story of how like um You can love something so much that it gets passed down to your kids whether you like it and whether you know you have an influence On that like outwardly or not You know and so I love it again because it's a close to home It's a story of irony and it's just hip-hop like you I sampled one of my mom's old songs telling the story I mean, she definitely got her pub and points for sure. She charged me. I made sure you know She ain't off that you know I'm saying so um she got a just do for show so um I say all this to say I rock with that song a lot.

Ain't you glad she ain't make the band? I know you are. You say that on the record. You said, I can't remember what the line was, but you basically said you think Puff is a victim of his own karma. You made him run six miles, and your mom didn't make the band.

So do you think that? Do you think Puff is a victim of his own karma? Cause you said look at Puff now. That's one way that it can be interpreted. It can be interpreted in a bunch of different ways. You know it just depends on like what lens or what ear you're listening to it. What'd you mean by the bar? You know what?

To be honest like that bar was something I was so like hesitant on saying because like above all else, not even above all else, like above all else I'm a human being right? But with being a human being I'm I'm super pro black and like publicly I don't ever want to speak bad about another black man but damn this is making it hard. Pause. Crazy. Yo, you know what I'm meant by that. No I don't, Cordae. No, we ain't finna do this. We ain't finna do this. The pauses that you have. That's facts. He got some pauses. So, I say this to say, go back to my... man, let's leave this shit alone, man. There's no right answer to this shit. I tried to juke around this shit, you know, but y'all some proffes-

But yeah, to my point, like, I don't ever wanna publicly speak down on another black man, but like, oh my, you know. You got a song on the album with Kanye, you talked about it earlier, it's called No Bad Juice. Why would you do that? No Bad Juice. Yo, you crazy, man.

No bad, yo, you're crazy. It's called No Bad News. Oh, news, yes, you're right, I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah. It's called No Bad News. Oh news. Yes, you're right. I'm sorry. Yeah, it's called No Bad News. How was that? I know he's on your Mount Rushmore.

Yeah, I mean bro. Bucket. We can get juice bro. Yo. That's what I thought it was called. It might be a type of. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean that's definitely a dream come true bucket list. What did you learn from that session? I mean yo, Ye's one of the the the goats like he I had a different hook for that song and he sent over notes like instead of saying this you know say this. That's what I just said. Yeah so let me finish. Okay. Okay. My bad my bad that came off. You been throwing me like. I'm just messing with you. I know I know. Messing with you. I know you just. You called it bad news. He wanted to call it something else. No, no

Over the title, um But yeah, basically like yo this I mean point blank period He's a genius creative genius at the highest level What can I say about him creatively that he doesn't already know and that we as the world doesn't already know but definitely um a Bucket list to work with him for sure I know that you you said you like to be with your baby girl your daughter. Yeah, how are you and Naomi though? Oh, we good. I just think I had a date night like a couple nights ago at Jamie Foxx y'all was that something yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah now we good man

I know because y'all don't post each other so much people even speculate about that Maybe they broke up or anything that speaks to what you was talking about about just everything connecting negatively Yeah, for sure me honestly like I am a super private person I am like I tried my best as much as I can be like when it comes to my personal life to be super private Like as much as I can be because some stuff you got to keep for yourself and when you allow like outside as much as I can be because some stuff you got to keep for yourself and when you allow like outside opinion when you let in outside opinions can be family members you know what I'm saying and that can get in the way of stuff that's important to you so man when you add the world to that that that's a whole

another thing and so um I try to be as private while speaking on it now but I try to be as private as I possibly can about like my personal life like you know even with my daughter and you know My relationship and stuff. Do you still talk to the YBN crew? I talked to Almighty J I don't really talk to Namir like that to be honest. What? I don't know like I it's for me There's no matter what Namir got to say about me publicly There's always a level of respect and appreciation that I have for Namir They're like nobody can ever get me to that I have for Namir that like nobody can ever

get me to like talk bad about Namir you know what I'm saying cuz like yo that dude threw me the oop and I caught it and dunked it. He shined that light on me and I'm like I'm not even saying this to be like politically correct it's just the gods on the truth um I'm super grateful for him like he changed my life you know I'm saying for lack of a better word and so like I said he shined that light on me you know I'm saying threw me the oop you know I caught it windmill'd it and um I got so much love for him like I talked to Namir mom more than I talked to Namir you know what I'm saying like that that's how that is. Well let's listen to something off that I'm what you

wouldn't hear off that one. Man I don't know man. Let's do Saturday morning. We fat shamed Rod Wave. Let's do that one. Oh my god. Oh my this is crazy. Salute to Rod Wave. Love Rod. nah, I f***ed up. People misunderstood that line, I think. What is there to misunderstand? I'm dealing with a lot of problems. I don't know if y'all can relate. Feeling like raw wave, I got a lot on my plate. He didn't mean food. Oh, he not saying like, he still feel like.

He's saying a lot of responsibilities. Yo, when the blacks coming going, this man is crazy. Yo, this man. Yo, what color Air Forces did this man got? Black, yo. I mean, but that goes back to like my like freedom as in art, like me expressing like my sense of humor and my freedom as like this is hip hop. Double entendre. Yeah, it is.

So I say this to say that goes back to the point I've made earlier like me just being as free as I possibly can versus me like worrying about what people think. But I mean bro makes dope music, you know I'm saying great artists so yeah the crossroads out now yeah let's get into the joint right now it's the breakfast club good morning it's Cordelia. I got a Saturday morning featuring Lil Wayne. Morning everybody it's DJ Envy Jessalarius Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. I was gonna ask how do you deal with social media are you on social media because between your girl yourself if she has a bad game, they blame it on you.

Yeah. If you have a bad album, they blame it on her. So it's like, how do you deal with that as far as mentally and even in your relationship? Well, it comes down to like, I've truly like, I don't give a f**k bro what people think. Because people, I've learned too to the internet isn't a real place like it has influence right it does have influence but it's not a real place and people are always going to say something people nitpick anything apart like literally people always.

Well, we're talking with finance expert Vivian Tu, AKA Your Rich BFF, to break it all down.

I always get roasted on the internet when I say this out loud, but I'm like, every single year, you need to be asking for a raise of somewhere between 10 to 15%. I'm not saying you're gonna get 15% every single year, but if you ask for 10 to 15 and you I'm not saying you're going to get 15 percent every single year, but if you ask for 10 to 15 and you end up getting eight, that is actually a true raise.

Listen to this week's episode of Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Find something negative and the most positive stuff. man You can do a toy drive and give away a hundred thousand dollars worth of gifts And if you got a cameraman there don't be like, oh you just did it for the camera And let's just say you did your you overlook the positive part of like yo This just gave away a hundred thousand dollars worth of gifts You know what I'm saying? And so people always gonna have something to say, you know what I'm saying? Do you feel like sometimes being the boyfriend of her overshadows you being?

Corded no cuz I was corded first and like I'm I'm very confident like in myself like as a I don't really like to pop My but like I'm a super successful like young black man, you know what I'm saying? Like I'm wealthy. I'm blessed I do it and above all else. I'm a man of God and I'm a proud not prideful, but I am a very Unapologetic black man, you know what I'm saying? And when I say all that to say um Yeah, no, there is it Never see it with you CJ. Mm-hmm. You you say you might see me stressing over blessings that I prayed for Yeah, and I want to talk about that line because I overstand it. Expound on that.

Like bro, like this is stressful, bro. What's the most difficult thing you have to deal with? Cause people look at your life and be like, you popping, you got a great career. You got a family, you living with it. You got a kid. I'm handsome. He's like, never forget that.

Y'all gay, why y'all ain't say that first? Yeah. I'm six feet tall and you know super handsome we get it we get it i was waiting for somebody to say it but you handsome yo you handsome hey appreciate it i'm not play gay on the radio i'm not really gay you don't know uh honestly it's the thing that's like whatever is currently presently in front of me like it's never one constant enemy. It's always some solution based and like, you know, just try to be as solution based

as possible. Now you did post a picture of yourself. Yeah. You put hashtag free Luigi. Yeah. People mad at you about that. They are? They assume the free Luigi. Yeah people mad about mad at you about that. They are they assume the free Louis people who is this target demographic? Free Luigi because you know Luigi if it's the same Luigi, yeah, we don't know he's the gentleman that killed the CEO of United Health Care

Yeah, I know my Luigi Mario brother was locked up man of United Healthcare. Yeah I know my Luigi Mario brother was locked up man. Yeah yeah yeah. Okay. But uh anywho but um yo I'm just in a space now another big thing that I like the like one crossroad I've gotten past is like being super I'd say I've done a lot of things that I wanted to do thus far right and I know it's so much more that I got to do I'm still on this journey. If you look at all my albums they all represent a journey from the lost boy to the crossroads it's all if you look at it's all a journey because that's kind of what life is right

so on this particular moment in my journey I felt as though in the past I've been a little too like scared to be canceled for lack of a better word or fearful to say what I really feel about certain because of like protecting what I've built. You know what I'm saying? Like when you build and saved up millions of dollars or like our brand or whatever the case may be a company business like you want to protect that and sometimes protecting that causes fear and you to move through fear.

So I've kind of entered into this space now of like yes, I'm a creative first I'm an artist first and I gotta just say what's on my mind like, you know, don't be an idiot You know what I'm saying? Don't don't be dumb You know but like yo don't be as like Politically correct and like scared to offend anybody because you're just going to be bland if you're just like oh I don't want to offend this person. I don't want to offend this person I don't want to make this person mad

You know what I'm saying to where like I've been doing that hella like in my creative and so I don't think he is a monster Like you know what? I'm gonna say this this is this is gonna be my politically correct answer But it's also my authentic true self So this is the I'm not gonna say this a medium but authentically me as a Individual I am not well researched enough on The monstrosities of the healthcare industry and what the guy that got killed had to do with it I just know that the American Healthcare industry is fucked up. So I don't want to speak on the assassination of that particular individual

Without doing my proper research on what that particular individual had to do with the overall scope I'm the fuck up. You already push me Luigi. Well, you pick the side, you know Another line on never see it. You said you would never see me partying with the Michael Rubens. Yeah, why is that? So look, let me say this right He has this it's crazy because he has this program called reform that actually got that that does amazing work Honestly, and it got a bunch of people out He actually got like some of my closest friends out of jail like straight up out of prison like got him an appeal like they Do amazing work, right?

So I will want to start off by saying that but I mean brothers is just going back to that place of me being a free Creative, you know what I'm saying and say say what I feel, if I think some, and that includes humor, you know what I'm saying? Some of my favorite rappers had like social commentary through humor. And so like, I've always done that since the very beginning, but when I got lit in Toulouse, I stopped doing it as much because I didn't want to burn bridges,

you know what I'm saying? And so I say this to say, we all, it's just me joking. I see some on line to behind the back hugs. I'm like, yo, that's crazy. You want to see me doing that? And so funny enough and again acknowledging, I did want to acknowledge he has this program called reform that does amazing things, right? So when I said that line, I have never met this shit day in my life. One week after that song come out, I meet this shit and he's hella cool. What do you mean by that?

At a commander's game. Did he hug you? Huh? He hugged you? No, I didn't say behind. I just said Did he hug you? Huh? He hugged you? No, I didn't say behind. I just said, did he hug you? Man, look, I say what I say. I adapt him up. He's actually hella cool.

And like I said, the work he does with reform is amazing. And he's put a lot of money in black people's pockets. I just had an interesting conversation with Lil Baby recently, and he was talking about that. And I think that sometimes people just really go where the information is. Yeah, no, exactly. And I think that sometimes people just really go where the information is. Yeah, no, exactly. And he's, I only met this dude one time,

and he was like, again, I felt kind of bad after meeting because you know, you see him online, he's just like, I'm making fun of it, but then when you actually meet the person, they become a real person, which is also what fans think of artists, so you know what I'm saying, it's like a duality of it. So not, I met him and he became a real person,

but when I met him, I'm like, oh wow, you're like you're really you're the complete opposite of what I thought you were like So everybody's at your parties cuz you're super cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so um, so you would go to one of these parties No, I can't now I still Me but not you then she I don't know I'm not gonna answer that I don't know If I commit any crimes I'm committing it with this He ain't gonna talk about it in the video He might rap about it but he ain't gonna talk about it at all Yeah that's funny that's worse

Now rapping about it and talking about it I do have one last question I guess Yo can I just play number one Yo your album is fantastic This is just a personal thing. Let's leave on that. No, I'm f**king with you.

Go ahead. As a man, what did you do to help your lady get through her postpartum? I would say, I don't know. I don't want to act like I'm the perfect person and be given advice. I'm the perfect example of what to do is just be as present as you can and be as understanding as you can and be as understanding as you can and um be a man You know I'm saying All right. We appreciate you brother. The album the crossroads is out right now. It's the Breakfast Club is called day

All right, and let's get to just with the mess Thank you Auntie Monique. Alright so Snoop addresses Kendrick lyrics. Alright he sat down with Bootleg Kev and if we remember back when Drake and Kendrick were in the middle of Red Beef, Drake dropped Tailor Made Freestyle. That was an AI generated song that uses the voices of Snoop Dogg and Tupac to insinuate Kendrick like the West Coast Legends do. So at the release of the song, Snoop apparently shared the post. He shared the post that had the song on it and Kendrick wasn't too happy about that so while Bootlekev

had Snoop on a song I mean Snoop on a show he asked him about you know how he how he felt about that. I mean there was like an AI transposed version of you on that song which was crazy right like yeah that that sh** was diabolically like one of the weirdest things but the crazy part is I can say what happened was I did a collaborative post with someone so when I do it I don't listen to the music. I just see gin and juice because it's my brand so when I post it I'm thinking I'm posting gin and juice. I don't know what song this is I don't I'm not hip to everybody's music right then I get the word

Nephew didn't like what you did. What did I do you play play some music what music then? I had to go look at them Oh, that's cuz damn so I deleted it called nephew left him a message cuz he picked up he was working on his shit I left him a message nephew. This uncle Snoop. I got the message. I apologize. I was fucked up my bad That's real but what age is the worst the up. It is. That's real. But what age is the worst? The TaylorMade song, Bananas or Roseanne Ball? Ooh, that's hard. Damn. That's hard. That song is terrible.

Well, you know. In the middle of battle. Bananas are what they were saying. It was good and then he just came back with the machete. It's just always weird to me. I thought it was weird to have somebody that is still alive. I thought it was creative when I first heard it. An AI-generated song with somebody that's still here. I just thought it was creative the way it went down, but then Kendrick came with the shotgun. It aged terribly because he just was saying,

Hit me, hit me Kendrick, hit me. What you ain't knowin' to hit me? I dare ya. I triple dog dare ya to hit me. And then boom! It knocked out. It ain't got up since. Have not gotten up. Still struggling. But when Kendrick released GNX, he made mention of the situation in the song Wacked Out Murals. I'm supposed to tell a man, I prayed it was the Edibles, I couldn't believe it, it was on my life for me to let it go. So Snoop also addressed how he felt when he heard the song. That's my nephew, man. He's a rapper, man. He's supposed to speak his mind and tell his truth. Yeah. That's the way he felt, you know what I'm saying?

And he has the right to say that, I'm his big old boy so I have to take what's given to me from his perspective because he's speaking truth. And the truth shouldn't hurt you, it should make you better. You know what I'm saying? I'm one to accept truth when it's brought to me directly. He feels that I shouldn't have played that damn, I was on them edibles my ****, gotta be more careful. You're right nephew I love that man

And just really listening and really understanding most people had ego and mentioned me and I'm gonna come back at you But not snooping I love snoop for that man. That's right. I don't believe it's an edible alive that can impact snoop But I do but I do honestly believe that it's just a collaborative post a lot of these people don't be paying attention to Listening to the whole post or whatever like when somebody collaborates with you, you just know that page. He just probably Accepted he approved the invited collaboration and just later on was like, oh crap But he said he deleted or whatever bootleg kev also asked him about how he felt about the lawsuit your thoughts on the lawsuit? Next question.

I got to ask. Next question, girl. You know, on the West, we hold court in the streets, girl. Such a lot. And Drake lawsuit. I meant to say Drake's lawsuit, to be more specific. Such a lost art just to say next question. I know, right?

Nobody says that no more. Yep, yep. Because next question. He said next question to still answer it, though. But yeah, next question. Next question. It's still answering. Next question. He said next question to still answer it though. Next question. Next question. So it's the bootleg cab.

They're dropping the clues box with bootleg cab. Great conversation. So this is the bootleg cab. Yep. Potential Sexy Red and Glorilla collab. Double XL featured Sexy Red and Glorilla as their recent cover story called Two of America's Most Wanted. I think that's really dope.

That's dope. Cause seeing how America is receiving these two young ladies, that's the play on a song by Tupac and Snoop Dogg called Two of America's Most Wanted. In honor of their collab cover, XXL had the ladies interview each other. And while they were talking, they spoke about a collab album and what it would sound like.

Fans have been asking us to do a joint mix type together. How would Glow and Sexy Project sound to you? Ratchet as f***. Yeah, that is what it is. It's gonna be some ratchet is f***ing hot. That is what's... It's gonna be some super red f***ing haters. No, I think they'll love it. I think they'll love it. You think so?

Because we both trench certified. You know how two young ladies... You know how we talk a***** up? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. When I first came out with FNF, they was like, who is this b***h talking about f***ing me? Like, oh I'm saying... Yeah, you snapped out with FNF.

Yeah, but it's a f***ing ratchet. I like that. Oh yeah, I think it's almost done. I'm not when I sat down with gorilla for my uh, out of context series. I asked her about it I think I think it's almost I think it's there. I think it's real I think it's real thing. Look at you spilling some tea Yeah, you sure did. That's not spilling tea. I mean it's the clairvoyant I already did the conversation You did what? I already had the conversation with her. That's not spilling tea You sure did. We actually had audio but since you already said it. Okay, cool I pulled up cuz I remember you asked me to do the conversation

I said, I'm not spilling tea. I had the conversation with her. That's not spilling tea. You're sure that we actually had audio, but since you already said it, okay cool. I pulled it up because I remember you asking her about that. She asked you who told you and you sat there and acted like you didn't know. Because I don't remember who told me. You always told me. I told you remember it will be television. Whatever.

Why just be hearing things? Whatever. But I think that's dope and I actually like what Sexy Red was saying. You know, was like, uh, we gonna make people mad sexy was like no, I think they gonna love it I think that's how also she's gotten so far too. She don't let You know outside people people who hate her and that she don't let that opinion weigh heavily on her success Like she just keep on going. I think that's what's gonna make it a really good collab Yeah, but they can't drop till it's warm. Nobody would hit no Glorilla or Sexy Red with this cold. In the winter?

Nah. In the winter weather, they gotta drop spring, summertime. You're right, you're right, but I think it'd be dope that they could possibly have the album of the summer, the album of the summer with the bops that they gonna put together if they get on tracks together. So. I think they, well, besides Kendrick,

I think they'd run the summer anyway. Yeah. Glorilla and Sexy Red, yeah, absolutely. Besides Kendrick. Yeah, Kendrick's record, they not like us. Oh, you mean this summer? Yeah, this summer anyway yeah absolutely Kendrick Kendrick's record they know this summer yeah this summer this one Kendrick was running so much this summer this might be looking a little bit too much in the future but a tour imagine what that tour would look like

sexy red and glow what? Bunch of women out there with short shorts on, tampon strings hanging out you can see em. Ay yo! I mean yeah but there's some stanky ass stadiums, but it's gonna be cool I think that'd be cool They should have me open up do about 20 minutes of comedy to talk about everybody in the crowd get them mad and then had them Girls come out like I think that'd be done like that Well, that's just what the best and if you want to see those ladies this Thursday if you're in Atlanta Jingle ball Atlanta both of those ladies are will be performing. So they both perform sexy reds performing Yeah, TIs before

I don't know how we put this one together Lilla insects So get your tickets is this Thursday Jingle Ball Atlanta can't wait to see you guys All right, we got donkey today coming up. Yes We need Robert and Robert Lang listen to Nisha eBay to come to the front of the congregation. They think they Santa Claus All right, we'll get to that Nexus the breakfast logo morning You need to know what you need to tell them. I am It's time for donkey of the day, but you're so good Well sexy red donkey of the day for Wednesday December 18th goes to Robert Langlis in Tunisia eBay

they are 33 and 32 years old respectively and they was trying to duck the law okay just like you did last night it's okay all right somebody out there listening to me right now ran from the police late last night early this morning it happens I understand all right one of the best feelings in the world is running from police and getting away trust me I know I saw a crack once okay when the police come to raid your spot and you hit the woods and get away, what an exhilarating feeling. Now, you shouldn't be doing illegal things that will make the police come after you. I am not encouraging that. I'm just simply saying that when you are doing illegal things and the police come for you

and you get away, incredible. Now, Robin and Tanisha don't know what that feels like. No, the officers tried to execute a warrant on a property in Fall River Massachusetts and Robin and Tanisha tried to get away but it didn't work let's go to NBC 10 Boston for the report please no that's not Santa Claus you're looking at police body camera video from Fall River it shows a man there stuck in a chimney we're told officers executed a search warrant at a home on Canal Street last night that's's when 33 year old Robert Langlace tried to evade arrest by hiding in a chimney. It didn't work. He got stuck. Police had to call in the fire department to get him out. Langlace is facing drug charges.

See? This is what happens when you believe in Santa Claus. Every year you all get mad at me for telling the truth. Hey! Nope. Santa Claus is not real. Hey! Liar! Santa Claus the truth. No Santa Claus is not real Don't fly this they do number two. You don't even own a chimney All right number three if you own the chimney, why would Santa Claus be able to fit down it? Have you seen Santa Claus? He's built exactly like former governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie. All right? There's no way his big ass could fit down a chimney. But you humans have convinced yourselves that the story of Santa is real and being that you all think Santa is real, you think what Santa does is real. And you thought your dumb

ass could just slide down a chimney and end up where exactly? In somebody's living room eating milk and cookies? Now, Robert and Tanisha were both charged with possession of class A and B drugs I had to look that up. Okay class a drugs in Massachusetts are heroin morphine meth ecstasy and ketamine All right class B drugs God class B drugs are cocaine, crack, LSD, and ecstasy. Okay, listen, none of this is surprising in light of the circumstances. Whoever made up the story of Santa Claus was high as hell. Okay, it's the only explanation.

And the fact we created this one-size-fits-all story that doesn't even make no damn sense, hasn't even really stood the test of time if you think about it. We live in the era of Amazon, FedEx, UPS, dropping packages off all types of day, all times of night, but all Santa got is a bag, one bag. Like he a hoe who just stayed over for the night. And he got something for everybody in the world in just one bag, dressed in all red,

so he don't go to Crip neighborhoods, huh? Not to mention, nobody ever questions who exactly are the elves. I don't think they are elves at all. just one bag dressed in all red so he Now, some of y'all out there are saying to yourself, Charlamagne is on the radio making up things about Santa Claus. If you feel that way, then you too are on Class A or Class B drugs. I'm making up things about a made-up thing. Yeah, the moral of the story is police described Robert's antics as Santa-like. Well, this is the season. Please give Robert Langlis the the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.

Yeehaw. And be so mad at you. For what? Because Santa Claus is real. I'm lying. Santa Claus is real. I don't even know why didn't even say that. Santa is real.

So I mean, I'm evolving, but I'm not gonna change. I'm gonna always just stay true to who I am. You, what was it, healthcare and lock?

Yeah. So you were already, I'm not ahead of the curve, but you were already peeping the injustices that were helping in the healthcare system and you decided to do something about it. Yeah, yeah, I mean, before entertainment, I worked in the labor movement for 11 years as the staff director for one of the largest

healthcare unions in the world so I was already doing the work and then you know Part of just being active in my community I always felt like once you build your platform you have the influence you have the relationships You should be doing something with that and just the evolution of my world in the entertainment industry I just kind of felt like I was falling out of love with entertainment, because it wasn't what I thought it was on the outside, and I just felt like my purpose wasn't being used, so I just, you know, found something else to do with my time.

Went back home and ran and won. I was gonna ask, you said you've been sober for, how many months? Almost 16. Congratulations, what got you to the point where you was like, I need to stop doing this? What was the last thing to be like, this is too much? Okay, well I've never told this, but I so I had a birthday party.

I have a birthday party every year. I got so wasted at my party, I was drunk for three days. But that wasn't even a thing because it was like, you know, you get older. It's harder to get sober or whatever. I had woke up in my house. My friends, we all came back to my house after my party. I had lots of people in my house, but I woke up in the morning.

Hey, I'm Gianna Predenti. And I'm Jeme Jackson-Gadsden. We're the hosts of Let's Talk Offline, the early career podcast from LinkedIn News and iHeart Podcasts. One of the most exciting things about having your first real job is that first real paycheck. You're probably thinking, yay, I can finally buy a new phone. But you also have a lot of questions, Like, how should I be investing this money? I mean, how much do I save? And what about my 401k?

Well, we're talking with finance expert Vivian Tu, aka Your Rich BFF, to break it all down. I always get roasted on the internet when I say this out loud, but I'm like, every single year you need to be asking for a raise of somewhere between 10 to 15 percent. I'm not saying you're going to get 15 percent every single year, but if you ask for 10 to 15 and you end up getting 8, that is actually a true raise. Listen to this week's episode of Let's Talk Offline on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And there were people in my house that I didn't know. And I had a gun. That you didn't know?

That I did not know. And I had a gun in my robe. And I just thought like, if I would have woke up and went downstairs and found these people in my house, how I would have. Shot them all. I would have shot all those people, you know what I mean? So then I called my friends like,

why y'all leave these people in my house? They were like, oh, you know the part. So for me it was one, I got people around me who weren't making sure I was good. Two, the Bible says warning comes before destruction. That was a warning sign because you had a lot of fun, but that could have went south. And yeah, it just was a bad thing.

I didn't want to go out like that. And I do feel like people be crashing out and if there's these signs that come before they crash all the way out and they just don't listen to them. So for me, I heard that sign and I just literally quit. And that was it. Why do you have a gun in your robe though? I don't know, I don't know how I got it.

You gotta stay away from the f**k. I mean, I got guns all over my houses. And now I'm back in Stockton, California. It's one of the most dangerous cities in the state. So like I always keep guns on me. I'm a concealed weapons holder. I think in this country right now, it's just so unpredictable.

You should be ready to protect yourself at all times. I have been, I mean, first of all, you know, I'm very inspired by watching you run for Stockton City Council and then win. But also, I just was concerned, because I'm like, I know how these people play dirty in politics. That was never a concern of yours?

No, I play dirty too. We know, J. Yeah, you know, but I'm... I'm... I'm... But I want to shout out Kevin Hart, Floyd Mayweather, Babyface, Rihanna, everybody who actually got behind us, Floyd and Kevin donated a lot of money to get behind the campaign

and we all won. So now we all took control of the city and now it's going to be a different city moving forward. Wow. You had the non-profit dinner that you had Rihanna host. Do you save those type of favors for moments like that? No, I've never done a favor for her. I mean, you know, Rihanna, she gave me the photos

of her first kid that we put out. She just believes in what we're doing. I think she saw the person say what he said about, you know, go ask your rich friends, and she actually cares about the world, and now as a new mom, she really is in love with, like, you know, making sure that kids are taken care of, and that, you know, people are doing

what they can do to help them. How do you do music, son? I haven't heard the new music. That's a lie. You start smiling when you laugh. No, you start smiling when you laugh. The reason I laugh is because one, I look at some interviews when I talk about her. That's one relationship I don't even want to talk about it because it's just I do love

her so much and I care about her and she's a sweet person, but she's so dialed in to what's happening. I've never asked to go to the studio because I don't want to hear anything because I do have a problem Keeping secret sometimes and that's one that I don't know. I haven't heard the music. Do you have anything that you? regret though since your sobriety like I don't regret anything because I feel like everything I've done is a lesson, but I will say that When I was here, I did made that I made that off the cuff comment about Jennifer Hudson.

That's the one. You said she was illiterate and a terrible television host. And a terrible host. Okay, we don't need to repeat it. And a terrible host. Yeah. Let me say this.

Let's go, let's play it all in, I'm just kidding. That's interesting. I will say this, you know, I think you can be critical of people without being mean. It was an off the cuff, unplanned comment talking about something completely unrelated. But then after that, of course I got all the flak. That wasn't why I think I wanna apologize for sure

because I don't really care when people have an opinion about me online. I saw her at the vice president's house and when I saw her I just, I felt bad and I wanted to say something but it was, what do you do? It was the wrong setting to go up and have a conversation. Plus Karen Civil was right there

and it was like, it was already too much going on. And you couldn't pass her a note because you already said you don't think she can read, so you let her show up. Jesus Christ. Back to my apology. No, because you know the game on the mainstream. I own my own platform, so I don't play the game.

I don't have to audition. I don't have to be good for anybody. I just do what I do. I leave it there and I don't play the game. I don't have to audition. I don't have to be good for anybody I just do what I do I leave it there and I go go on with my business But in this world of entertainment all white men like the people who owned them are mercury will find a black person to Market to white people because that's the advertising game and I just felt like at the time, you know She wasn't the best talk show host I could have been critical of that decision and criticized them not attack her to say she was illiterate was wrong plus she's been

through a lot of traumatic stuff like I haven't to see her in public and you know she gave me a lot of grace because she could have read out of me she didn't but I felt bad I'm gonna send her a personal note and some flowers and you know piece it up with her you know at least do my part it's not to be friends or anything like that but just I just felt like it was unnecessary I was gonna ask you know have you ever ran in the common like cuz yeah About it. No, no, I mean him talked at that party to me a common We're not friends, but you know, we were friendly and we communicate a lot when he was dating Tiffany

So we've been in each other's space. He's been on my show. He's cool. I like and respect him He didn't say anything, you know, we took pictures and it was cool. So he keeps it keeps it separate Yeah, yeah, the comment it but I would But what I told Jason earlier, a while ago, is just like, to do what you do and still have the relationships with celebrities is like unheard of. Wendy didn't have that. I don't know if Perez Hilton did, but I know Wendy didn't have that.

But I think the thing that people still fail to realize is that you can not like me or hate me or hate on what I do or whatever. I still have a relationship with you. With everybody in the industry, Hollywood Un I still have a relationship with you, with everybody in the industry. Hollywood Unlocked has a relationship. Some just participate, some don't.

I am though backing up from Hollywood Unlocked as much as I can in the new year. I'm putting my staff out there more. I use Hollywood Unlocked to build my brand identity. I have it now. I really wanna do things that are purpose driven. My community is important. My show, I'm in love with my show.

But outside of that and my dogs, I really don't want to go nowhere. I don't want to do nothing. I don't want to really talk to nobody that don't have anything to do with what I'm on. You know, Hollywood Unlocked, that thing can go and run and my team is going to do that work. I still own it, make all the money. But yeah, the industry and what I thought it was.

All right, we got more with Jason Lee when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club we're still kicking him with Jason Lee. Now I got a question when you decide when you're not gonna tell a story or when you're gonna wait right so the Megan Thee Stallion

story you teased it months before it was released. By the way I like how you set that up let me tell you let me tell you why I intentionally did that and I like that you pointed out that it was in July. There's so many stories that we get on a daily basis. I don't get the grace for the stuff we don't put out. So you'll never know, like you'll never say, Jason, man, he did that because I didn't do it. You know, you don't know what I didn't put out. A back to the make thing,

the reason why I held onto that for so long, there's a couple of reasons. One, you know, I love the fact that Michael Rubin has a successful career, successful businesses, and lots of privilege that he takes advantage of, and that he has the white party. The white party I thought was ours from a long time ago, right, before you know, the baby oil and d***

start flying around. Damn! But man, they took that. So now, that's the party that everybody wants to go to, which is great, and I've been to it, and it's a good party. You know, when Michael's not hanging on your when I when I heard about what happened at the party I was like, yo that really went down. I went near, you know, I didn't get my invite So I'm gonna just hold on to that. Well Megan and Winnie

I know both of them but then just Megan there's so much out there where that people don't know I just felt like you know in the party. I'm just going to drop it, but I have to win office first That's why I had to hold on to I couldn't drop it while I was I already went viral with the Jennifer Hudson thing I'm gonna do this. I'm gonna just wait so I, but I have to win office first. That's why I had to hold on to it. I couldn't drop it while I was, I already went viral with the Jennifer Henson thing, now I'm gonna do this, so I'm gonna just wait. So I waited till I got elected, then I dropped. I was also gonna ask, you know, with Trump suing and winning $15 million for somebody reporting a wrong story.

Yeah. Not just somebody, that was George, Steph, uh, Stephanopoulos. We know, yeah, we know, we know, we know. That's why they say his last name. So when it comes to your staff, do you tell them to make sure you understand what's going on because now if you report a wrong story. I mean, I reported the queen died.

And that's my point. If you report the wrong story, they're going to be suing now because the fact that Trump get 15 million and the fact that Trump is about to change the whole Indian landscape. That's what I'm doing is different, Jason. Why? Because if you report the queen died and she didn't die, that usually is a career end for a lot of people. Okay, but here's the deal. One, we never saw her after I reported it.

Two- That's not true. Oh my God! No, no, we didn't. Hot. But Twitter, right now, everybody's on Twitter. We did not see her. We saw a photo of her.

She was outside in the park drinking coffee or something like that, right? She was not, and she was gone. She was gone. She had a Hollywood Unlocked t-shirt on. Yo, shut up, stop that. She had a free Wendy Mug. Noshirt on. Yo shut up, stop that. She had a free Wendy mug. No, but, you know, by the way, the way they've locked Wendy away is insane.

We saw her this weekend. Well, I didn't see her. No, you didn't. Somebody saw her this weekend. In Florida. Yeah, they said it's our only restaurant. Legendary. That's what I said.

I said that must be old. Okay, anyway. The Queen, we didn't see her after I said she was dead, so even though I was on vacation when I broke that, I kind of stand behind it. But as far as- You still stand behind who's on vacation. Listen, I don't want to double down anymore because that was just enough. But she was dead.

So look, I feel like I tell my writers all the time, you have to have insurance. We have insurance for everything. We have millions of dollars worth of insurance. So if you do stuff, we get sued, whatever. I've been sued probably more than 20 times for using images we weren't supposed to use. But I mean, yeah, they do their research, they make sure that they follow the rules, but sometimes you make a mistake.

That was a big mistake that George made, though. One word. Yeah, but rape versus- Battery and defamation. I mean, rape. Yeah, so we have to watch it. My show, on my show, we have insurance and stuff, too, but I do have to watch what I say, because people are suing. I'll sue. We should be suing.

You damn right. Jay-Z should be suing, but he will. Is he suing right now? I'm sure he will. I'm sure. I'm sure it'll be a definition. I hope so. Yeah. Now when you become councilman in January, what's the first thing you want to do? Well one, we're gonna restore order in my city. Part of the problem is that I told everybody and I think they haven't been listening to me on the campaign trail because they kind of wrote me off as he's just a rich out of town celebrity reality star blogger, whatever they did, which is fine because that was a distraction I needed to put my head down and actually win. I said I'm going to get in there and audit all the measure A money, all the money that you all have been spending and

if I find anything wrong, you all going to jail and I meant that. And so the first thing on January 7th, I'm ordering an audit and I'm on the Budget Committee of all the money and they know that that's coming and I can feel the shifting happening in my community. I think just how we invest in nonprofits, nonprofits led by women, people of color, really looking at how the city can partner to invest in those that are doing the real work and touching those

who need it the most. And then homelessness is a big issue in my community. So we've been bringing folks from the state there, this man named Mark Fosse, who's managing a $6.38 billion budget that the city never applied for. He's now in the city meeting with the county and city officials about how to get some of that money there for homelessness.

And then, you know, just creating opportunities for young people because that city is where I met Queen Latif, but 30 years ago ago that inspired me to get in entertainment and that literally unlocked everything. So tell them I'm very jealous of that. Your relationship with Queen Latif. Yeah, we talk about you. Don't lie.

Yeah, for real. I told her what you said, how much you care about her and love her and I love her too. And ironically she's never been on either of our shows. Never. Ain't that crazy? I mean I'm fine with it, you know what I'm saying? Because she's been an inspiration

from afar, her and Shaqem. Yeah. Because I just always believe in building institutions especially with black women, you know what I'm saying? And Shaqem was one of the first brothers I saw do that. Like really say, yo, me and this black woman right here, we gonna build something and look what they've built. But you know what I learned in therapy,

I respect you so much for encouraging me to go to therapy, but I also don't like that you encouraged me to go to therapy, I'll tell you why. I think therapy in many ways has made me softer. What's wrong with that? I don't like that. What's wrong with that? You know, because I think it's okay to have feelings.

Like I have feelings, right? I do have, I believe it or not, I have feelings. But I also feel like when people feel like you're vulnerable, they then try to take advantage of you even more. And I have had more people trying it, but at least with sobriety and clarity, you see it now. And I'm like, I call it out. What I learned in therapy, though, with Queen Latifah is that I feel like I had abandonment issues for my mom, because my mother, when she was on drugs, would come to the group home and visit me or foster on me and then she would never take me home with her and it wasn't because she didn't want me she just was on drugs and couldn't she just wasn't well you know and she had mental health issues and

stuff so because I wanted her to show up for me and she didn't now that I've become Jason Lee and Hollywood unlocked all that and Queen Latifah not showing up and my fans asking where she is it was triggering triggering. And it wasn't until I was in therapy, I was like, well, I got abandoned. So I had to really like compartmentalize that relationship and say, I do have access to her. I love her. She gave me inspiration to pursue my dreams.

She gave me the support when my brother was murdered and spent time talking to me through that. And I love her. Which is more important. Which is, that's all the more important stuff. And I also know she don't want to come on my show because when she does, she bring her ass up there, we gonna really talk and we when you talk to your friend, you know telling what to come out Yeah, absolutely

I love you for joining us brother. Of course councilman. Jason lee. That's right. It's jason lee ladies and gentlemen Councilman jason lee councilman councilman jason lee. It's the breakfast club. Good morning the breakfast club All right, well let's get to Jess with the mess, y'all. You need to use this real weapon. This is the line, Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. Get out of my way!

She don't spare nobody. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. I need to go look. On the Breakfast Club. She's a coacheship. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to set it all. Chance the Rapper's wife finally

files for divorce. So it's a sad day and a shy y'all. His wife and the mother of his two baby girls, Kristin, has filed for divorce after five years of marriage. They got married in March 2019 and they've been together since 2013. She actually filed last Friday but the news just broke. They announced their separation back in April. Damn, she waited eight months to actually file. That's the crazy thing. So she might wanted to reconcile or anything but we don't know that. So an announcement from April, this is just going back, it says, this is is a statement after a period of separation This is what she posted her and chance posted this together

It was a joint decision after a period of separation the two of us have arrived at the decision to part ways We came to this decision amicably and with gratitude for the same time We spent together God has blessed us with two beautiful daughters who we will continue to raise together." So the full docs, they're not available yet, so there's not much detail on who's getting what, what she's asking for, if she's asking for anything at all. And his marriage has always been a big thing in his music. There had been an incident before they got married, earlier in the relationship, they had, they was thinking about splitting up, but they got through it. And that was before their second child, right? She had went to the court

to prove that he was the dad because she was trying to put him on child support. So I guess that there was a situation, we don't know what the situation was, but that kind of like went away because they got together and had another baby after that. And then if y'all remember back in 2023, when he was outside, outside, remember it was a viral video of Chance getting danced on when he was at Carnival for his 30th birthday and Shorty was backing it up on him? Cis wasn't feeling that. You know when she saw Kristen she didn't, she wasn't feeling that.

But after that is when everything got a little crazy and she's finally filed for divorce. Boy the big day was a project that Chance put out and that's why if you're going to make an album about your significant other, you have to make sure it's really really good. You have to make sure it's really good so it's received by the public well because if it's not received by the public well, then it could have an impact on your marriage. I just made all of that up just now. You did? You did?

Yes. No he did make an album pretty much about his wife and people made fun of him and I commended him I thought I was my wife. I remember people making fun of him. I thought it was dope the fact Oh, well, you're doing it, but that's his wife. That's his soul mate that what you thought is best friend The music should have been stellar is what I'm saying. I see you saying it wasn't stellar. So we can remember it because I don't remember hearing I don't remember hearing it I remember the backlash she got from it how he was saying he was corny and all of that type of crap But I didn't hear it so it wasn't it wasn't the music wasn't as bad as people tried to say it was

But I but it did get a lot of backlash. I just think it was that one that woman's like I love my wife I love my wife. I think it was that one part that really really threw people I gotta go back and revisit that up Imagine that song over top of the video of the girl dancing with him on car at carnival See that's what backing it up on it. That's what people do and probably got him in trouble But I see I like chance and I love the fact that he wasn't afraid to share his is you know It's love what he's got a hit and everything to music got a hit like you got a hit So you saying it flopped out so that Jeff if somebody made an album about you and the album was wack, what would you how would you feel? I'll be mad I'll be mad about me, but you break up with him is the album side. I'm not gonna break up with him

So if we married I'm not gonna that's not that's not why I'm a divorce you but I mean I'm gonna be one of them critics to like damn you could have came better now You got to make another album to make up for this trash and that one might be trashed too So look don't sing about me me don't make no tracks about me he might come out with his best music now he might get on his managing blotch Keisha Cole heartbreak you know what I'm saying mm-hmm I get it I get it I doubt it we ain't hear from Chains in a while oh wow yeah it's probably going through it man we don't know but I'm not putting

that on him but it's you know being as though there's a divorce on his hands right now we don't know nice guy though. Chances are great guy. Kanye West alright so A&E is launching the third season. That's another problem with Chance too. That whole Life of Pablo album took all of Chances energy. That was Chances energy. So it's a show called Interrogation Raw Celebrity Under Oath and the show dives into what really happens when a list celebrities go to Court the new season is airing the day after Christmas December 26 and will feature footage from Kanye West deposition Which was part of his 2020 tech lawsuit for those who don't know Kanye was accused of stealing technology To advance his Yeezy brand and launch a Sunday service. The deposition was done virtually

So it's not like it was in a real courtroom. It was actually on like a Zoom or whatever. And when the deposition starts, Kanye has a hat on that reads rooted in ignorance and he's wearing it very low like over his eyes. You can't see his eyes at all. And I'm an attorney on a virtual deposition, asked Kanye to get off his phone and this is how it played out. I see that you're looking down at probably a device.

Are you on your phone? Yes. I'm going to ask as a ground rule that you not be on your phone during the exam. Can we agree to that? Well is that legally what it should be? I'm not going to advise you as to the law. That's why your lawyers are here but that is my ground rule. Due to my mental geniusness in order to focus on this bullsh** i need to be on a uh phone

council do you want to speak to your client before we continue? Kanye in terms of you can listen to the questions and answer them right? okay i get off the phone. Mr. West why have you donned a mask to start this deposition? because you don't have the right to see my face. is it your intention to wear that mask for the entire duration of your examination? perhaps Because you don't have the right to see my face Entire duration of your examination perhaps In the clip you hear him ask why you don't a mask right that's cuz when he took his head off he pulled up quickly with the mask out his pocket pulled put pulled it out and it has a He put it on and it has a picture of Jesus on it. All right, so it's a Jesus poosh I see, you know, he put it on real quick and

And he don't feel like they should be able to see his face, but he also started going off This is another clip from the deposition. I think y'all should hear this. Okay. Where are you currently giving the deposition from? Where is that room? the deposition from where is that room? I'm not gonna tell you, you're never gonna see me again. Madam Court Reporter, same thing mark the transcript and who is in the room with you? Oh, notice the show. No one's in this actual room with me. Okay and what other things do you have in the room besides the phone that you've identified? Are you stupid? I'm not gonna tell you other things. I don't have the time to be talking about I'm not gonna tell you other things. I don't have the time to be talking about I got a chair in the room. You are talking to the richest black person in the history of America

That's not true. That was a big ass lie. Big bold-faced lie. I will say though Kanye really gives 80s 90s celebrity energy Like he was the last celebrity who gave that ridiculous 80s 90s energy because you think about who we came up on you know the Michael Jacksons and Dennis Rodman's just these people who just created these spectacles that was Kanye. Yo, that would be dope if you if he'd had his own music Why he was talking cuz he's got one of those Yeah, I know right no that way he got the thing to to me the suspense you want to know what's in this room? Right a chair. Yeah, oh that would be oh that that was the clip from the show So the show did all that the dramatics and everything like that. That's gonna be a good show though

So we need to catch that again. It comes out the day after Christmas. I don't think that's gonna help his deposition I don't think that that that helped. Well the season airs that you don't think this is gonna help us Well the season airs, you don't think this is gonna help us? I don't think that would help that day. No, I don't think that would help. But it was entertaining. It's definitely entertaining. I'ma watch. I'ma watch that episode for sure.
