What you did last night? Did y'all do anything fun yesterday at all? I was watching the debates. Yeah. I walked around the city a little bit. And it's just crazy. Being here and then walking outside, people was really like you the girl that was on there this morning?

Why was you up there with them? I met a lot of y'all haters yesterday. But they didn't know I was from Chicago so it didn't really get to, you know, I had a strap on me. So everything was culture. I don't know if it's necessarily haters, but it's people that like to debate the things that we discuss.

So that can vary from day to day. So one day they might agree. Another day they might be against something that was said. That's true. That is fact. Now, that is true. They're very passionate. They definitely always want to debate.

Yes. All the time. Even when you got to catch a flight and they're like, hey, I got a question. Six months ago, you said, I said, what? What'd you say? I'm all for that. Just approach me about something that I said. You know what I mean? Oh my God, hello. Yeah, don't come to me

about something Envy said or somebody else said. Come to me about something I said. Shout out to the dude at Lids in Times Square. He talked to me for about an hour about stuff. I was like, I wasn't even there, bro. I wasn't even there. Yeah, I wasn't even there, bro. I wasn't even there. Happens all the time.

Alright, well let's get the show cracking. Front page news. We got a lot to discuss. Rudy Giuliani, of course, turned himself in yesterday. Your President Trump, your ex-President Trump, he's turning himself in today. That mugshot gonna be popping. I'm telling you, that mugshot t-shirt, Trump campaign will be selling those by tomorrow for $100 a pop.

Mark my words. Trump should do something wild, like get a baldie. Just go there with a bald head so it looks fake or something. He's going to look ridiculous either way he shows up. That's true. Get him a new wig. I mean, and we can pre-order them right now on my Instagram. Oh, boy.

Come on. Add on there, Kiki. That's right. All right. We'll get to it next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got our guest co-host, Kiki's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got our guest co-host Kiki joining us today. Good morning. And let's get right in front page news. Tezlan Figueroa, good morning. Good morning, DJ Envy. Good morning, Kiki and Charlamagne Tha God. Peace, Tez. Let's jump right into a lot going on. You want to start with Rudy Giuliani?

Yeah, let's start with Rudy Giuliani. I'm sure many of you saw that mugshot circulating the internet yesterday it was actually several mugshots but Rudy Giuliani obviously him being the former New York mayor stood out to many uh we know that he was Donald Trump's lawyer and confidant he turned himself in in jail on yesterday in Atlanta with charges that related to overturning the then President Trump's loss in 2020. The former New York mayor was indicted last week along with Trump and 17 others. Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis said that they participated in the wide-ranging conspiracy to subvert the will of the people.

So his bond was set for $150,000, was only second to Trump's $200,000. They got some reaction from him coming out of jail. Let's listen. Do you regret attaching your name to the former president? I am very, very honored to be involved in this case because this case is a fight for our way of life. This this this indictment is a travesty. It's an attack on not just me, not just President Trump, not just people in this indictment, some of whom I don't even know. This is an attack on the American people. If this could happen to me, who is probably the most prolific prosecutor, maybe in American history, and the most effective mayor for sure, it can

happen to you uh i wonder how much the rudy giuliani uh mugshot t-shirt gonna go for i think it'll do i think it'll do well in new york like there's a lot of you know uh new yorkers who who love mayor giuliani who feel like he was one of the best mayors ever about 25 bucks yeah 25 in new york okay plus shipping okay okay canal street 999 okay okay okay i can see that happening though by the way yeah absolutely and even if you're not a fan of rudy giuliani if you're one of the people who you know went to went to jail or prison because of rudy giuliani you definitely have that you might want to throw that mugshot t-shirt on you know just to say hey how i feel that's right now donald trump what time does he have to turn himself in? Yeah, well, you know, she gave everybody until noon to turn themselves in.

As of yesterday, this is about seven hours ago, nine defendants have surrendered and 10 have not. So we should see quite a few mugshots going out today, including President Trump. And now we can say for sure, guys, that you think President Trump will be taking that mugshot. You know, we wondered, well, would she do that? It looks like Fannie Willis is definitely the one that's going to make the foreign president stand in that line and pose for the camera. So we should start seeing that roll on out this afternoon. All those other people got to go before Trump. I'm sure Trump would like to go last just for the theatrics of it all.

That Trump mugshot T-shirt, I'm telling you, it's going to be Trump's campaign. I'm going to be selling it by tomorrow for a hundred dollars a pop and y'all gonna be buying him helping him with his legal fees i guarantee it it's gonna happen all right well that is front page news now i know next hour we're gonna be talking about the republican debate last night a lot it was very spicy last night huh very spicy one thing republicans do is keep it spicy so yeah when we come back in a second now we're're going to break all that down and have some highlights for you.

I keep the Sabbath. That's right. Oh, you go to church on Saturday? Yes, sir. You got to keep church with me too, Charlamagne. I know you go to church on Sunday, but you got to switch the days that you go, sir. I tap in every day. This morning, I was actually riding in,

listening to Sarah J. Roberts, the Mystery of Grace sermon from Sunday. Come on, man. It's good to tap in every day. I hear you. But the correct worship day in the Bible is a Sabbath day. Sabbath day of the week.

Okay. Yes, sir. I love you. Peace, King. Peace. Okay. I worship every day, though. I used to go have to do Kingdom Hall, I mean, field service on Saturdays.

I grew up Jehovah Witness. Man, that was tough. You know, Saturday morning cartoons we grew up on in the 1900s. You know what I mean? I have to get up and go to do field service on a Saturday. You still got it in you. What? Jehovah Witness?

Yeah, like, let's knock on my door. What you going to say? I want to see if you still got the script in you. I don't even remember. I don't remember what we used to say. Wow. I just remember we used to have to have to watch towels in the awakes. I don't remember.

I don't be seeing them in jerseys like that. In Queens? Right. All the time. It was like a, here they come, here they come, here they come, turn the light. I don't know why we turn the lights off. Right. It was daytime.

I don't know why we turn the lights off. I definitely used to see him in Jersey a lot, especially where I used to live at. Nah, Queens all day long. Hello, who's this? What's up? How's everyone doing? What's up, Kenny?

Get it off your chest, brother. Yeah, it's basically the same with Rudy Giuliani. It's ridiculous. They broke the law. They tried to get votes that they shouldn't have gotten, and they all need to be accountable,

held accountable. Well, they are. They are being held accountable. You know what I'm saying? This is just the first steps. I don't know why people just expect for them to be in prison tomorrow. You know what I mean? But this is the first steps.

You got to get arrested first. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest. Wake up. The Breakfast Club. This is Brad from out of Hillsborough, Texas. Hey, Brad from Texas. Get it off your chest. I just want to say that with all the attention seeking that Donald Trump usually does,

I can totally see him making them come and get him and not actually turn himself in. I doubt that. Nah, he's going to turn himself in. Yeah, he'll be in Atlanta. Because, you know, it's the spectacle of it all. Correct. Donald Trump is enjoying the spectacle of it all. He wants to fly down there.

He wants his followers and supporters to be there at the jail. He wants to get the mug shot because they're going to put that on t-shirts and mugs and who knows what else. Yes, I think he wants the spectacle of it all. Yeah, he's going to turn it. He's going to say, if they can do it to a former president, they can do it to you. Vote for me.

He's going to use it. This is going to be his slogan. He said yesterday, I'm proud to get arrested. See? I can't slogan. He said yesterday, I'm proud to get arrested. See? I can't wait to get arrested tomorrow. I'm proud to get arrested on behalf of the American people. Wow. All right. All right.

I'll agree with that. Thank you for taking my call. And good morning. All right, brother. Same to you. So polite. Very, right? Yeah.

Hello. Who's this? Hello. Hey, what's your name, mama? Hey, my name's Sade. He's Sade. Oh, you named after the singer? You're mine.

Sade, good morning. Get it off your chest. Good morning. I just want to get off my chest about messy people at work. Talk about it. Okay, it'd be the ones that'd be older than you. That'd be messier than everybody there. Yes.

So I was in a situation back here over the weekend at work that happened with two guys that got into an argument. Everybody looking at me like they were arguing over about me. Were they? Right. No. Don't lie. I ain't got nothing going on with neither one.

Okay. And the one who started all of this, it was his job to get my supplies that I needed him to get. So he made a big deal and argued with another dude like they was going to fight and all of this. So now the big manager came and got up and talked to us about the situation. So why is I'm being the one who looked at it as a bad guy like I started out with this when I just asked him to come do my stuff that he supposed to do you feel like you're leaving the stuff out of the store

I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks.

Listen to Crooks everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

Feel free to make yourself at home. Okay. Say less. Kiki. Kiki. Kiki. Are you loving? Are you riding?

This is the rumor report. I'm the devil looking cutie around here. Chi-town. Chi-town. On the Breakfast Club. Now let's get into these rumors, child. Let go. She got a gun?

Yeah. Add that, Taylor. Jesus. Always straps. Always straps. You already know. But let's get into the rumors now. Okay, so Chloe Bailey.

She's catching some heat online right now, and I don't like it. But here's why. Her sister, Holly Bailey, there's been rumors circulating that she may be pregnant by her rapper boyfriend, DDG. Now, you know, this is our Little Mermaid, so we are very protective over Chloe and Holly. But Holly was, you know, not addressing the rumors. So Chloe was online talking about it during a live stream. And here's what she said. And y'all better keep my sister's name out your mouth.

Thank you. Amen. Amen. Hallelujah. You're about to get me riled the hell up. Anyways, love you. We don't play about Halle. No.

Like, what the heck? Period. Now, to me, that's's harmless you're just addressing people talking about your sister and being protective all right so since she said that now funky doniva he's on fox souls tgif with our friend claudia jordan well y'all friend i'm acting like i know claudia but shout out to the queen um so he's on that show and he had a lot to say in response to chloe let's take let's take a listen to that i can officially say I don't like her. Chloe Bailey is so goddamn

lame to me. First of all, girl, you are Miss Preppy Ashley from the suburbs. Then you came out, you was being all promiscuous and shit, and then now you trying to be a gangster. None of it is f***ing believable, girl. None of it is believable. And I'm probably

gonna catch a lot of backlash for this and without that makeup she ain't cute she should have never showed up on that camera with that fat ass face without no makeup she ain't cute you're not believable you're so goddamn inauthentic that's why you ain't selling all right that's number one the girl is clearly pregnant you really wanted to shut down all you had to do the next day was be like child y'all know y'all need to stop playing pregnant where oh i mean that's his opinion but uh i don't agree with any of it and you know uh that's that's her sister like that's that's not being gangster when you come to the defense of a family right if you don't like something that somebody's saying about your

your family member i'm sure you would come to the defense of that person and you don't have to be a gangster to do that. And how are you going to tell somebody that they're clearly pregnant? That's her sister. How are you going to tell me that my sister is clearly pregnant? Yeah, I mean, like you said, that's a family member. That's a sister. I mean, I think the weakest person will come to the defense of their family member,

regardless of what it is. It has nothing to do with gangsta. Now, if he doesn't like her or doesn't like her music, that's something different. That's his opinion and you know opinions are like a-holes everybody everybody got one and the reality of the situation is everybody just making content like i would tell chloe and hailey don't even pay attention to stuff like that because everybody's gonna have an opinion because who who y'all are exactly what else they're gonna talk about exactly you know but i that's kind of strange to tell somebody clearly she's pregnant

i don't know if she's pregnant or not but that's my sister i think i would know before everybody else would know how you gonna tell me my sister is clearly pregnant but it's even outside of just saying that she's pregnant it's him going off on chloe like this and i love funky don't even but this is a chloe bailey stand account over here so we can argue about it on instagram what you what you think about what he was saying i really i when he you know you could say your opinion but to call her ugly to say she's uh her face is fat like what was the cause for all of that and none of those things are true about it right far from ugly and i feel like chloe catches a lot of heat because people do not like perfection beyonce goes through it as well like when you immediately tell me you don't

like beyonce i judge you a little bit because what is there really not to like she doesn't speak much so what is there to really not like? And I feel like Khloe is going through that a lot as well. People are just dragging her at every moment, but what is there not to like? She gets on the stage, she sings, she's great, she's beautiful. That's how you know you're successful.

When people have needless criticism like that, that's when you know you're successful. And once again, who else they gonna talk about? You shouldn't be talking about them. And to say she's ugly without makeup that was like so low and i love funky down even but this is a man who used to put on makeup before he got on the camera every day so like let's not do that i just felt like that was wrong so chloe bailey girl just stay strong she did respond she was some tweets she said people be so mad at your happiness get help and then then she retweeted herself this or no

sister retweeted and said they need help immediately i think so i'm still stuck on the fact you're gonna tell me clearly my sister pregnant by the way i don't know if she's pregnant or not but you i don't know how you can just say that with so much confidence clearly she's pregnant it's my sister i'm with her every day i don't know i just don't know how people can say things like that with so much confidence it's been video circulating i won't speak on a pregnancy because that i don't know but girl don't don't know. I just don't know how people can say things like that with so much confidence. It's been video circulating. I won't speak on a pregnancy because that I don't know. But girl, don't come for her.

I don't like it. Kevin Hart now, your friend is getting a little old out here because the man is now in a wheelchair and I'll let him tell you why. To all my men,

women out there that are 40 years old and above, it's not a game. Respect that age or that age will make you respect it Um, this is just public service announcement because I know people may see me out and I don't want you to be alarmed But I'm in a wheelchair shots out to Stephen Wiley I'm gonna go to put this story out there before you do me and Stephen

We got into a little debate this debate was based off of who was faster Steve is that Kevin no way you gonna beat me Steven is X NFL running back play for the England Patriots. I said, Steve, you can bet it. He said, bet. I said, bet. We get out there. We go run the 40-year-old dash. Guys, I blew all my shit. Tore my lower abdomen.

My abductors are torn. I don't even know what that is, but I tore them. I can't walk. What are we competing for at this age? Why are we, like, what am I doing? Stupid as shit ever. Now I can't walk because I'm somewhere trying to get the title of the fastest the barbecue kevin's absolutely right once you uh hit 40 and above you know things change yeah

but but also sounds to me like kevin needs to add some more running to his workouts more random versus speed sometimes you got to get on the bike and just sprint you know what i'm saying okay it seems like kevin does that he seemed like he does those jobs but when your body wants to give out and your body gives out uh last week uh shout to uh my jewish partner ronnie he had a birthday party it's nothing but white people and i came and they wanted to play basketball so since i'm the black guy they said i'ma take envy right okay okay but i don't play ball with people anymore because people get too aggressive too rough and i can't afford an injury i got too many kids so as i to play, I realized I don't want to play no more. Because they play like it's the NBA.

And I want to play like it's fun. Yeah. And they hit me too hard. And I was like, you know what? I'm just going to pass the ball from now on. I'm not going to drive to the lane. And I'm not going to do that. So, but shout out to Ronnie and all of them.

I had a good time. But I'm not playing basketball no more. I don't want to play. I don't want to have those type of games. Because my body doesn't heal the same way. I mean, I feel you. It's just certain stuff that you shouldn't do after a certain age, and that's okay. Like for big girls, it's certain stuff that I just don't do.

Like what? We in the club, and everybody wants you off their Meganese. Baby, I know I ain't got it. I ain't never had Meganese. Don't you get down there. It's not enough in here to pick you back up now. That's what I'm saying. Don't you get down there.

That's right. Don't go chasing Meganese. Stick to the wobbles and cha-cha slides that y'all used to, big girls. I tell that cha-cha slide Down Okay I can imagine All of them coming together

To pick somebody up It's gonna be like Six of them No DJs need to start Doing the service And start saying that though You know what I'm saying

Like yo big girls We see y'all But this ain't y'all time Playing the wobble In two songs There's some big girls That got some good needs I was about to say

Good morning, DJ Envy. Good morning, Kiki and Char our special guest host, and let's get in some front page news. Desmond Figueroa, good morning. Good morning, DJ Envy. Good morning, Kiki and Charlamagne Tha Guy.

Peace to hood whisperer Desmond Figueroa. Let's talk about the spicy debate. Let's jump right into it. Man, I love it. There's one thing that I love about Republicans is the debate season. They go low, they go high. The jabs, all of the hilarious content that they gave us last night. But it actually was a really good debate. I certainly enjoyed it. The first Republican debate again, 2024 presidential

primary was held in Milwaukee. Eight candidates qualified for the spot on the stage. Governor Burgum, former Governor Chris Christie, former Governor Ron DeSantis, former UN Ambassador and former Governor Nikki Haley, former Governor Hutchinson, former Vice President Mike Pence and entrepreneur Vivek Ramasamy and South Carolina Senator Tim Scott. Missing from the event was former President Trump, who declined to participate.

He was they released an interview, a pre-recorded interview that he did with Tucker Carlson. We'll get a little bit of that audio in a moment. But let's just kind of talk about, you know, some of the highlights. Let's check out Nikki Haley when she threw a jab at Ramasamy about his foreign policy experience. Take a listen. Your future career on the boards of Lockheed and Raytheon. But the fact of the matter, Boeing came off of it, but you've been pushing this lie. You've been pushing this lie all week, Nikki. You want to go and defund Israel? You want to get Taiwan to China? Okay, let me address that. I'm glad you brought that up. I'm going to address each of those

right now. This is the false lies of a professional politician. There you have it. So the reality is... You have no foreign policy experience and it shows. And you know what? I thought Nikki Haley was super solid. She won the debate to me.

And Vivek's... Vivek's lack of experience was a point that everybody can bring it up. But the reality is, I think it worked for him. I think being able to get on that stage and say, I'm not a politician, works for him in the eyes of some people, not all. Because a lot of us want an experienced candidate. Correct. Yeah, they certainly saw him as a threat know everybody was coming at him for the same thing

uh over and over but you know he certainly had his own you're right you know about that charlemagne definitely had his own but i think nikki haley was certainly uh strong you know she was all those things that they claim they don't like aggressive and you know strong and making her point and and i think it really showed. He also, Ronald Sommers, he also said that climate change was a hoax. I thought that was interesting. Let's listen to that.

I'm the only person on the stage who isn't bought and paid for, so I can say this. The climate change agenda is a hoax. The climate change agenda is a hoax. The reality is the anti-carbon agenda is the wet blanket on our economy. And so the reality is more people are dying of bad climate change policies than they are of actual climate change. I've had enough already tonight of a guy who sounds like ChatGPT standing up here.

The last person in one of these debates, Brett, who stood in the middle of the stage and said, what's a skinny guy with an odd last name doing up here, was Barack Obama. And I'm afraid we're dealing with the same type of amateur standing on stage tonight. Yeah, that was Christy. Yeah, they shouldn't have booed when Vivek said they were bought. They should have booed because he said climate change was a hoax. Like, go outside, buddy. Like, check the weather.

He out his damn mind. And I thought Christy was super solid, too. was a hoax right like go outside buddy like check the weather he out his damn mind and i thought chris christie was super solid too you know but uh i think the reason chris christie and nikki haley came off so solid because they've been battle tested like you know they've been they've been governors and i like the fact that they both said in different ways it's just simply time for the republican party to move away from donald trump what do you think of pence i didn't yeah this one you, he came out a little bit aggressive more than what I thought. I actually thought Chris Christie would have been

more aggressive, actually. I was expecting a little bit more from him. He wasn't as vocal as he always is, but certainly, you know, he's definitely not new to this, so he certainly was strong, but I did want to see more, but Pence definitely came out to me as a little bit, you know, not having anything to lose. He took a lot of swings at a Ramos. I mean, I guess that's what he saw as his biggest competitor. He also said something about amateurs. Well, do we have that clip? Let's listen to that. We don't need to bring in a rookie is when I was governor. I mean, look, Joe Biden has weakened this country at home and abroad.

Now is not the time for on the job training. We don't need to bring in a rookie. We don't need to bring in people without experience. Now that everybody's gotten their memorized pre prepared slogans out of the way, we can actually have a real discussion now. So yeah, so just, you know, a lot of spicy stuff going on at the same time. Donald Trump released the interview that he had with Tucker Carlson. Let's listen to a few of those highlights. There started with protests against you, massive protests, organized protests by the left, and then it moved to impeachment twice, and now indictment. I mean, the next stage is violence.

Are you worried that they're going to try and kill you? Why wouldn't they try and kill you, honestly? They're savage animals. They are people that are sick, really sick. So we got many more votes in 20 than we did in 16. But the election was rigged. It was a rigged election. But, and with COVID, they used COVID to cheat a lot of different things. And we have so much on it. It's like so easy.

A guy like Chris Christie, a guy left with a 8%, think of it, 8% approval rating in New Jersey. Now he's running for president. And he runs solely on the basis of, oh, let's get Trump. He's like a savage maniac. He's like a lunatic. You don't think he's going to make it to November of 2020? Well, I think he's worse mentally than he is physically. And physically, he's not exactly a triathlete. And I don't know what they're doing with the beach. You know, this beach has seemed to play a a big role but they love pictures of him on the beach i think he looks terrible on the beach he's right i mean he's absolutely right chris christie does look terrible on the beach i cannot sit here and act like chris probably does not look terrible that's how to be a sex symbol

though okay but i i totally agree with him but you know what i i i totally forgot that trump was on with uh tucker caulson i literally forgot But that is a very interesting question that he asked Trump, because I'd be thinking the same thing. Like, would someone try to kill Trump? Like, I've had those conversations with people behind the scenes because I don't feel like we'll ever see Trump in jail. Like, I don't think they would put a sitting president in jail. But in my mind, I do be thinking they're going to try to offer. I do be thinking that I can't sit to off him. I do be thinking that. I can't sit and act like I did.

So that was a very interesting question from Tucker Carlson to ask that. But I wouldn't think that they would put Trump in a mugshot. So, you know, I don't know. I never think that. I never thought in a million years.

Even every time he's been arrested, quote unquote arrested, he was never in cuffs. He's never in cuffs. He's never had a mugshot. So the fact that they're doing that, I really don't know. I don't know if all of this

is just for theater, though. Like, I don't know if they'll actually go through with putting a sitting president in jail but they would offer a former president you know i mean i i thought that was a very interesting question from second causing because i can't sit here and act like i haven't uh thought that and had those conversations behind the scenes so all in all who would you say i would say uh if you had to pick a winner, I would say Nikki Haley won. Ramosami definitely held his own. He got most of the airtime, which he should receive a bump in that for sure.

He definitely came to do what he went there to do. Was DeSantis there? Right. We haven't even talked about DeSantis. Was he there at all? DeSantis truly underperformed. Yeah, Nikki Haley would definitely be my number one. Chris Christie would be my number two.

You don't think Vivek got the most press? Vivek got the most press and people talking about him out of it? Because a lot of people didn't know who Vivek was until last night. Yeah, Vivek, like I said, him constantly repeating he's not a politician and a lot of those people attacking him you know helped i think you know and he held himself down he swung back if they didn't attack him like that i don't think we would be looking at him like oh you know he might be a formidable threat this morning but being that they were attacking him so much you know yeah he looks like a threat now but yeah i

think nicky haley was my number one uh chris christie was my number two and if chris christie was my number one chris christie would have looked like a before picture, and Nikki would have looked like an after picture for a diet. Shut up, man. That's not how it went. Pence did ask Ramazani about his voting record as well. Why did he just start voting, but they didn't get a chance to answer that. Yeah, people were talking over him.

Yeah. Alright, well that is front page news. Thank you, Tez. I know it was a lot today. It was a lot today, but good stuff.

Now, when we come back, let's go to our OG in the game, Michael Bivens. You know Michael Bivens from New Edition, BBD. He founded Boyz II Men, founded Another Bad Creation, and a host of others. And we're going to talk to him when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, sir.

Ladies and gentlemen, Michael Bivens. Yes. The legendary. The legendary Michael Bivens. Man, Mike, you got a documentary out on a person that needs a documentary, and that's you. That's right. The Hustler 617 Mike Biff. I remember putting it together and saying how much I wanted y'all to be a part of it.

It was a pleasure. Yeah, absolutely. And it's not easy when you know y'all got a day-to-day and you're trying to get someone to go uptown and to take time out. But I want to tell you thank you. Absolutely. We had a nice screening last night uptown. And, you know, when y'all came on the screen, the room reacted. So what you're doing here is moving in the room up there

Absolutely, I mean it's always good to have a legend in the icon in your phone When you came up here you was like every always call me every show every market that I'm ever in any time I'm in town and y'all performing see a new edition and seeing y'all perform is something that I always enjoy to do It's my happy place because like in a documentary, you know, we're Charlemagne was talking He was like, you know as a kid you would pick which member of new edition you wanted to be as a kid right so it was like to see that and to actually know y'all and to know your families and everything about y'all is it's a real blessing so what what made you want to do the documentary

I'm gonna say something to you that comes across strong in the doc my man went to rock with me that's that's powerful to me um i appreciate that shall i mean what made me do it bro was i saw the godfather clarence you know he's gone now we haven't put him to rest yet but you know he's gone rest in peace yes indeed johnny's out there dealing with that what a big bro um and to alex and to nicole and jackie i would say when i saw that doc right i was like damn this is moving me because when he was at motown he's like the godfather to my godfather gerald busby who ran motown's my godfather but clarence is gerald's godfather so when i used to watch them in the office i'm 20 years old sponging up all of the game, all of this knowledge.

And I'm just like, Danny, powerful. And when I saw the doc, you know, I saw Luda and I saw Shaka and I saw, you know, Ron. And I saw a lot of people that probably met him in their passion. But I felt like the kid who put lights on in the building. And I just said, damn, I just wanted one question. And I just wanted to talk about the time I seen Clarence when he wasn't in control. You know, so I said, when I come here, I'm going to share the quick story. One time, Lou Wasserman, Sid Sheinberger, they was running Hollywood.

Universal, MCA, and Joe and Clarence, they were like at odds. So it was like the blacks against the whites. And I'm sitting in the office and I'm like, damn, this is crazy. I'm 20 years old. And they just pacing. I was like, yo, I'd never seen these two a little off-center. So I'm like, yo, don't y'all got assistants? And they looked at me like, what are you talking about?

I said, listen, man, only way you're going to solve this is with something on your stomach so it can ease your mind, man. Tell those people to get y'all something to eat because what you're dealing with, you seem unbalanced. And they looked at me and said, damn, Michael Bivens. So they got lunch. And I said, listen, I'm leaving. This looks heavy, but I've never seen Clarence and Gerald off. And I just want to say that in the docs, I think docs has roller rollercoaster rides Mm-hmm, you go up you go down in the middle And I just wanted people to know that even when he felt like his back was against the wall He was still smooth and cool. This is what I love about the doctor most man Like I don't I don't think you get your credit

Mogul like you should and I'm glad this doc is shining the light on that that that is there Well, you know to be honest with you bro when um after i saw the godfather and got inspired that's what made me do it but i was calling people that i work with i called chris robinson i called jesse i called stephen hill i called people i had success with 29 million i'm like yo can you help me and i ain't really get the response i thought i would get matter of fact ch Chris didn't even hit me back, and I knocked the wind out of me, right? So I was like, damn, I got all this great footage, don't have a director, don't have a deal,

but I got all this archive. So I went and I called my man Mark over at Creature Films. I said, yo, I need an editor, man. I'm going to just take this leap of faith. And he set me up with a guy named Jason. And then my man, Fiskery, from Queens, he's been a director down with Lionel and Ralph McDaniels. He said, bro, man, can't no one tell you a story like you?

I said, where? So I hired an editor, bro. We had footage. We had no game plan. We had no blueprint. We just looked at everything and said, now that we are jumping off the cliff, let's tell everything in chronological order

and to be honest with you as I'm doing this Charlamagne I realize there's a lot of jewels and gems that I know and seen I just wanted to make sure I was hitting all the marks so then I'm reaching out to you I reached out to bro, I reached out to Dick Clark, I reached out to Kid Capri

I got Snoop, I got Michael Jordan, I had all these stories Capri I had I got Snoop I got Michael Jordan I had all these stories and then I realized in telling the story I didn't have to say too much about what you're saying I just felt like it was speaking for itself you know you know Charlamagne mentioned a little earlier do you feel like you don't get the credit you deserve like when we look at some of your artists whether it's you know Bellevue DeVoe boys to men or 702 another bad creation do you feel like when they have those mogul conversations they always forget about one of the original moguls that you know before people were moguls you know it's an interesting question do do i feel like my

name comes up not as not like it should i mean to keep it honest with you, I was 20, so I had a more successful label than any 20 I wrote in the game. I got two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I brought basketball to the music business. When I look at ESPN Friday night at 7.30, that started with New Edition and the WBLS Short Shots, went to PS201, Each One Teach one into full force MTV rock and jock. So I look at it like there's so many other things, too, like the sports element along infused with the music is basically what the doc is about. And I feel like, well, who is it that they're comparing me to?

Because what I did is something totally different. Like most of the CEOs are just music driven guys. I might be one of the only CEOs that was on the ball. I know Master P was on his thing, but I know he came after me. Right. So I sit back and say, I ain't going to beat my chest and say, yo, don't forget about me. I put points on the board. I just felt like, let me tell the doc, let the doc give you a little bit of history lesson so you can connect the years and the dots. And I think I'm at the 444 tour and Jigga saw me in the audience.

I'm standing in the chair. You know, I'm a little dude. And he said some clever, nice words to me, man. And that was the first person that did something like that for me in a public situation. 15,000 Bostonoston garden i didn't even know he saw me yo bib don't think we don't forgot about your contribution to this music business you was putting on before anybody boom boom boom and someone caught it on the cell phone so in the beginning of the doc yep i'm blessed by jay's statement so i think when it comes to you

it feels better than speaking up on it did you have a question like your role in the group because you weren't like known as the person with the crazy vocal range or you knew your role because of what you just said nah bro i never i didn't even come into it like that i came in and know that that wasn't my thing i just um you know when they asked me to be in it and i did it it was based on the following i had as a ball player you feel me so I just looked at it like let me find my way I mean the dancing you know took me a minute the singing I really had to take a minute Ronnie helped me with the cadence and then I just started finding my way and then eventually I figured out what my role is my role is to wash the paper let's put some clothes on the table let's stay connected to the boulevard.

Let's reach out to other rappers. Let's find a community so that New Edition has a long list of friends, long community of folks. And I just always wanted to be the guy that went to the back door. And if I saw someone say, yo, take these two passes, come on in. Because, you know, that might have been the kid from Queens. That might have been the kid from South Carolina who just got home. So I always wanted to make sure they was good. And then when you build those relationships, you realize they become the manager of a new rapper.

They the bodyguard of someone. So you start moving in a whole nother click. And that was, to me, my point, God, to make sure that our group stay connected. All right, we got more with Michael Bivens when we come back. You know him from New Edition, BBD, and a host of others. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Mike Bivens. Of course, you know him from BBD, New Edition. He has a documentary out right now. Now, where did you get that business mind from? Because in the documentary, you talk about you were the one reading the contracts. You were the one that had your own label. So

where did you get that mind frame from? Wow, that's interesting. I guess it came from I was always a hustler, man. Like my first job was a sweep on the floor in the barbershop, bro. Like I saw basketball players with Caesars and my mom gave me money every two weeks. But I felt like I played a game every Saturday. so I built a job in the barbershop. I told money, your floors stay dirty. Let me sweep your floors. You give me a cut every week. First job.

Then I run up to the grocery store, bag the old woman's stuff at the end of the cash register, put it in the cart, run it to the curb, flag her a cap. That was a dollar right there. White boy that did all of the bakery cooking in the cart run it to the curb flag or cap that was a dollar right there white boy that did all of the bakery cooking in the hood time i took his trash out on thursday that was a dollar so to me i was making a dollar maybe 10 i was good for about 10 every week and i'm like 10 years old back then that's a stack right so i just applied that to no addition when i saw the problems like this ain't adding up we ain't really getting our money.

And it's too much labor, not enough to show for it. And also, you're the one that brought Johnny Gill into the group. So that's like an A&R move, right? An executive move. Was that a move that you were doing just to fill a role? Or was you being petty? Because Ralph was working on it. I think Rizzo, he was doing this thing,

and we all so close right now, man. We just say, yo, whatever's in the movie, that's the story. It ain't really much to it. Those two are like the best of brothers now, and it was just what was needed for new addition. And sometimes it's painful when you make a move, but it's like a baby after nine months. When you hoist it in the air, it's a beautiful situation.

I love that y'all are all on the same page. Well, are y'all all on the same page now? Absolutely. When I see y'all out now, it seems love, but it took y'all a long time to get there. So how is everything so good now, cohesive now? And it seems like everything is lovely. Is it age? Is it money?

It's honestly, bro. Ronnie's brother got sick, robbed in the airport one day and had to go to the hospital. Love robbed to death. That's our valet, our brother. And Johnny and Brooke went to the hospital and they were just sitting there at the bedside. And Johnny called. He said, man, we got to talk. And then Kobe passed.

He's like, oh, man, I can't take this no more. Today's Kobe's birthday, too. Yeah, happy birthday, Kobe. Yesterday. So through the pandemic, we were just talking about how life is short. What are we doing? We need to do better. So those two instances put me and him on the phone, and then it filtered through Ricky and Ronnie and Bob over here,

and then it filtered through Ralph and him over there, and then we eventually merged it together. And fortunately, we was able to do two tours you know the culture tour the legacy tour and i'm sure when the fans see us now they they don't see that friction it doesn't even exist now we just texting like yo happy birthday tell the little supremes i love them like it's it's the sentimental hearts and prayer signs so it's a whole different movie you're absolutely right it's it's way better now than it's ever been in and prayer signs. So it's a whole different movie. You're absolutely right. It's way better now than it's ever been in life. When it comes to Biv 10, who's idea was that?

Like, you know, was it your idea, I want to start a label? Or did somebody come to you and say, you should start a label? Well, Charlamagne, I've been dealing with that question forever. Biv 10 is the label, but Biv Entertainment was the production company. So the success of Boyz II Men and ABC made Gerald give me the 50-50 deal. And it was all, at first it was Nate from Boyz II Men saying, help us, which turned me into executive. Then it was Gerald saying, well, if you're going to be an executive, you know, this is what I want. I want to present to you.

You know, 20, trying to figure it out, man, and having good people around me, Vita Sparks, Dallas Austin, you know, the managers of the group. It was a good time. And to be honest with you, man, you know, I did a lot of that on the road. Like, I'm touring, you know what I'm saying? I'm with BBD. Like, I never really was an office president. I never really had an assistant.

My assistant was a sky pager. You know what I mean? I conducted business in restaurants and lawyers. Anywhere I could get a fax machine. But it was the greatest experience because my first time out, I think the boys did like five after Boomerang. They went to 12. ABC went to two. So I was good for like 16 on my first outing.

Wow. So Boyz II Men was the first group you found? Boyz II Men was the first group I found, which I met backstage. They kind of found me. I saw ABC at a swimming pool in L.A., wondered who they was because I knew Little Dave from Boston. But then ABC came out first because Motown didn't know what to do with Boyz II Men. So Gerald said, I don't understand that. We're going to go with the kids.

So ABC came second, went first. Boyz II Men came first, went second. Why was it so hard to believe in Boyz II Men, though? Like, what's so hard to believe about four brothers that can sing? You know, you got to ask them, man. Because I didn't believe that. I thought they sounded dope. I thought their harmony was...

After Millie and Lilly did that thing at the Grammys, I felt like our timing was perfect. Everybody was looking for the real. Even with Jodeci, right? You look at it this way. Great Records, Hood whatever you know dalvin's my man but even then they had to battle against all those hood records and the only way they could survive is they could go acapella they always sound good and we made big records so we had to show them how great they were musically because some people didn't see it physically i think with boys to men too and no too, and no disrespect to Boyz II Men, I think when they first came out, and this is going to sound crazy, but New Edition was the culture, right?

Jodeci was the culture. Boyz II Men seemed a little suburbish when they first came out. Not to me. I think a little bit. Because of Motown Philly. Because of the way that record sounded. But the way they looked. But even that, everybody, even in soccer line,

people started wearing the sweater vest with the shorts. Check this out, guys. Check this out. And I had this conversation with Russell and Andre. You know why I sent them that way? Because it was a wide open lane. Black Brothers, bow tie, Argyle sweater. What is fat for?

Yeah. What was Andre 3000? Right right so they laughed at him but the thing is right that image was taken from a um a soap opera all my children it was a kid in the lunchroom alex vanderpool dressed like carlton on the fresh prince right and i said that's the look and they fought me on it it's like mike we look whack i said no you don't now they're gonna pay your attention now they're gonna know who you are like run with the sneakers you know a boy cement outfit if you've seen it right check it out then i say we're not gonna only just cater to the culture we're gonna open this sucker up we're gonna go do what motown did

every motown act went hot 100 they didn't just stay R&B. Supremes, Temptations, those is big pop records, right? And I think the payoff was in the 1996 Olympics, when they was looking for someone to open it, they invited Boyz II Men. It wasn't just the music that got it there. It was the wholesome image. So that, to me, took a little hit. You right, bro.

We was getting hits from the culture, but that's why I was there. They say, nah, well, what they don't do, I do. So whatever. They with me. And that's how we're going to do it. And when I seen them open Olympics after Muhammad Ali lit the torch, I said to myself, this is what that look was all about.

So the world can see y'all on the big stage. It feel like when they came out, though, they had instant success. No, it was slow. Motown Philly was here.own Philly it was it's so hard to say goodbye on MTV that blew it up the doors opened up on that record see and another thing too people don't realize when I made that record with them and they did it acapella they said they weren't playing on radio they take all that dead airspace they said said, well, never play this record. It ain't no music. So at that time, that was one of the first records that was ever played on the radio a cappella,

which led to Shy. Shy, yeah. You see what I'm saying? That was a five-minute record, too. It wasn't like now, it was a two-minute and 20-second record. But it was from one of the coldest, blackest movies ever. It was, yep. Right?

So you figure, even even then they were breaking ground and doing something different but that was a part of the image too to say listen we're gonna go with Motown Philly just to get try to get an audience but then we're coming right down the pike and do what y'all do best open their wide open all right we got more with Michael Bivens when we is your country falling apart feeling Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.

I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my God.

What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.

Is there any artist that you discovered or had a chance to work with early that you wanted to sign, but you didn't? They ended up being big? Well, Jagged Edge came through. I love them, man. They came through. They was called 28K. I didn't they ended up being big well jagged edge came through i love that they came through they was called twin 8k i didn't see that one and um i had boys to men like i said i had a conversation with dalvin in the parking lot about helping jodeci but i still have boys to men and um you know i met the brad i jacked a rapper her name was shawnee harris she came in

with a little bbd type hat on a little studded top and the blazer looking like me as a woman and um i didn't sign her either she wanted to be at bifton and of course i met lisa lopez she wanted to be me and toc so i named her so those four moments you said with me yeah well give her the name left eye yeah i think i did know that yeah yeah me and lisa we came friends we was talking she was trying to get my mind on how to play her character and i just looked i said yeah yeah your eyes are different he said what do you mean i said one eye circle and one is slanted she said well which one i said the left eye is bugged out and then she called me one day and said guess what my name is I said what she said left I said go with it and that was it what was your relationship with JD because I'm hearing you

talk about artists that you didn't necessarily go with and he picked up both two of them the brat and also jagged head what was your relationship with with JD back then um I think me and JD knocked when um he did jump he did jump I you, the record came out of nowhere. Monster, he was kind of getting at us a little bit with the mental clothes. And I think... Like you know him, stop acting like he's mental. Right, right. So that was kind of like our first time interacting. And then, you know, when I saw them with the backwards clothes, I'm like, yo, you know you stole my shit.

And we're going to just stop playing games. You're going to give me a check or write a record. I just got at him online a couple of weeks ago. He's like, Mike, I didn't know that BBD jacket was back. I said, yes, you did. You went to the concert. We had our clothes backwards. Because back then, Fade could do more coloring on the back of a jean jacket than you can the front because you got the buttons.

So that was the relationship. And then he started coming to the concerts and calling me he would just sit on the side of the stage he saw my kids and everything and I always told him I said listen man what we do for these kids is we keep the generation going man so I'm happy because I stopped doing it and you keep going and I'm just proud of you so he hit me up on the box he coming to the state farm yo Bev I'm on my way and he was doing that back then so our relationship was I was just jabbing at him a little bit. Just because, you know, I just wanted people to know, like, yo, that's my s***, too.

I was in my that's my s*** moment. And he just caught a little hit. But he said, yo, Bev, I didn't know. And we kind of let it go. Do you feel you signed too many artists on Biv 10 back then? Or Biv Entertainment? Because I remember, what video was that? East Coast Family.

Yeah, and everybody you started showing all these artists at the end of the video man you know we was what we was bugging out it was a lot

but you know the funny thing back then that's what we had so it was kind of like opening up to No Limit CD and seeing all the releases coming we were looking forward to

these people coming up well you know I still remember the white boys yeah the white boys the white guys I never heard a song I just remember that

from the video. I don't think I ever made a record on them either. I think, honestly, I don't know, man. I think I just wanted to help so many people. I'm going to tell you all a story. So I'm at Universal Motown. It's probably around the time of the Bad Boy deal, 03, 04. You know, I'm on this seventh floor over there, 1855.

They gave me my whole floor, right? T&E, style for 20. And I ain't selling no records, bro. I'm sitting there paying people. And they called me to an office one day, 8 o'clock in the morning. Yo, babe, we got to talk to you. I said, what's up? You're not selling no records.

We're going to get rid of you. First time in my life I heard someone firing me, right? He said, we're going to get rid of you. You're $10 million in the hole. We got to write you off our books. He said, but this is what I offer you. I'm letting Biv 10 go, but you can come work for me. You could be A&R here with me.

I'm coming in here to shake this up. And I said, well, what about the 20 people? He said, Mike, that's your problem, not my problem. Right? I said, well, listen, man. If I can't bring them with me give them a severance and just starting to go then my chair ain't gonna lie this was the best nicest firing ever in my life man maybe i just ain't got it no more and i just walked out that's the last time i

worked at a label hey how'd you break that to your label i I told them the truth. You know? We in the hole. Y'all been good. We tried. You know, the, what they call it, the fire, the magic is out. And maybe I need a mental break. So I haven't even thought about getting back in the game like that. I just went into new edition and went on tour. I just went back to what I knew best. Just go perform, go to box office, and go home.

What mistakes did you make as a label exec? I probably didn't build out a more powerful writing in the producing squad. Because what makes a label, bro? Hits. That's right. Right? Maybe I didn't go out and scour the country to look for more talent. Maybe when it was a

female wave, I could have got a female. Maybe I could have did a group wave again or a duo wave or even a group wave again or duo wave or even a rock wave whatever the wave was i wasn't in tune to see the voice so i just fell back and plus i was burnt out bro you gotta figure 83 to 2004 that's a long run yeah yeah i mean you just ain't got it you know so i i didn't i had to realize it but I felt like I had respect the day I got let go. He didn't really let me go. He just let the company.

And I feel as though when someone could be that eloquent and that nice and still want to keep you on, I just felt like I couldn't leave my people. So I had to break out. You say you never did a record on the white boys? No, I never did a record. That was the name of the group, by the way. They was called the white guys. The white guys.

Yeah, the white guys. He said the white boys. The white guys. of the group, by the way. They was called the White Guys. White Guys. Yeah, the White Guys. He said the White Boys. The White Guys. The White Guys. The White Guys. From Virginia. Did you get all the money that was owed to you from these labels? Was there ever a problem with that?

You hear all these stories about black execs not getting what was owed to them. My deals were set up different. I had a lot of LODs. So as long as you got a LOD, man, I'm good. What's a LOD? A letter of direction What is that? Send my money over there

Send their money over there You know so I always felt like I never wanted to be responsible For signing a check for an artist I find that when you sign a check for an artist You're responsible for why they didn't receive it So I always told the label What happened to New Edition

I would never do to my artist That's why I took 50% of ABC's money and got them a trust fund kids should never be taken advantage of even with the adults in my life listen this is my pocket that's your pocket your books and my books are equal you know but those contracts are the worst they've been the worst so as an executive I think I set that up right Joe took care care of me. As an artist, hell nah. I think we've given them too much, man. They got to watch the doc.

That's right. Watch the doc, Henry. They got to watch the doc. Where can they see this doc? All Black TV. Today, WeTV in a month and across seven to eight different platforms. My thing is, watch the doc so you can just see a story about a kid from the city, Austin, Roxbury, who wanted to be a basketball player,

who got redirected into the music business, who kicked open the doors and helped infuse ball and music, who brought a certain style to the game, who's probably responsible for a lot of executives having jobs. I got a whole crew of alumni who reached out to the community, stayed in touch with different cats from different hoods from the block, kept the back door open for any hustler that got out of jail, always took Envy's car on the 11th hour for a seat at the Essence Festival. You know, Carl Charlemagne, who pick it up, OG, what you need, tell me I want to be like you. It's a beautiful story, and I think that it's the first of its kind, and it's my directorial

debut, and it's a soundtrack.

I ain't trying to be Donkey today no more They should be embarrassed by what they already did I'm not making these people do these things They called Donkey up the D I ain't trying to be donkey of the day no more. They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making these people do these things. I'm called donkey of the day and it really caught me off guard. Damn, Charlamagne. Who got the donkey of the day today? Well, just hilarious.

Donkey of the day for Thursday, August 24th goes to Wayne Parker. Now, Wayne is a prime example of money cannot buy you happiness and money cannot buy you what we all truly want and that's love folks believe for whatever reason that once you get the bag all those things are included but the reality is happiness and love are sold separately and you truly can't even purchase either one of them see let me tell you the story about wayne parker he's a wanted man okay not wanted by the ladies wanted by authorities all right law enforcement all right according to the ny post he's been running from cops for nearly a year because he committed almost a million dollars in fraud. Oh, I can't make this up. Let's go to Suffolk News for the report, please. In October 2022, Wayne Parker of Malden Hall was found guilty of fraudulent trading after obtaining more than seven hundred and sixty five,000 in credit from suppliers.

An arrest warrant was issued when Parker failed to appear in court, in February this year. Trading Standards said Parker presented himself as a livestock owner which allowed him to be given credit by a wide range of companies. He often made no attempt to settle his debts and, when he did, repeatedly sent cheques that would bounce. Since going on the run, Parker is known to have been using the Match.com dating website and has also been hiring cars in a bid, it is believed, to avoid detection by the police. Okay, let me translate a little. Wayne is 35 years old and he was found guilty of owing all those pounds, which equates to $970,000 in U.S.

money to suppliers, but he failed to show up in court in February for sentencing. And you know when you don't show up to sentencing, police be on your ass, and that's exactly what happened. Wayne Parker has been on the run ever since, and I believe that Wayne, he's gone to see Jay-Z and Beyonce's on the run tour one too many times. And from that tour, he got the not-so-bright idea to think he could indeed be on the run and be crazy in love,

dangerously in love but he clearly made this decision when he was drunk in love wanting love because this man decided to start looking for love on match.com now i've never been on the run and i would never go on the run if i committed a crime because like presidential candidate chris christie i just wouldn't be good at running but if i did go on the run i would think the first thing i would do is lay low all right that's the whole point of going on the lam right all right another thing i've never done has been on a dating app okay and so i did some research this morning and by research i mean google and i realized that there's four easy steps you must do in order to land a date

on match.com first they say you have to nail the in my own words section because they say your profile has two main jobs grab the grab a person's attention and keep it you want to inform intrigue and keep the person wanting more so wayne couldn't change his identity he's an international man of mystery and nothing says intrigue like fraud so let's look at his dating profile it says name wayne parker also goes by the name sticky finger steve scammyammy Sammy, Hit-A-Lick Rick, Fraud Muhammad, and Kazim.

Stupid as shit ever. Now I can't walk because I'm somewhere trying to get the title of the fastest to barbecue so we're

asking 800-585-1051 let's start with you Kiki okay now for me when I knew I was getting older and I'm I'm an early 30s so I'm still you know a little young but what tells you is when you hang around younger people so like my sister-in-law is younger than me shout out to Quila when we go on vacation I want to go to the spa and lay down. Right. She want to go to the club. We got to turn up. We got to pop bottles.

And I also know when I go over to somebody's house and they music real loud. Like, why is everything so loud? That's when I know I was getting old. And also, when I discovered baseboards in my house. Like, I didn't know. I was just living life in apartments. I didn't realize I had to clean a baseboard. And I finally figured out what that was.

I was like, yeah, you're getting old. For myself, there's a couple of things. One, when I drive now, I listen to the traffic report to see what the traffic is going to be. Oh my God. Also, I watch the news to see what the weather is going to be. Also, if I'm going somewhere like I'm touching a long flight i watch what i eat oh meaning like if i i know if like let's say i like cheesecake and i want cheesecake before i catch a flight the person sitting next to me is gonna have a bad flight like there's certain things i know when i drink too much i know

i'm gonna have to go to the bathroom like there's certain certain things the nap thing is always one uh i do the old man basketball. So, you know, I got six kids. Yes. Two boys, four girls. And when I play my kids in basketball, I no longer am competitive real. Like, I back them down like my dad used to do me, just old man style and just kind of just do like a hook shot to beat them. Because I'm tired.

I don't want to play with them no more. I'm tired. Like, I just want to win and then go. Those are a lot of them. And then I got tennis elbow. And I haven't played tennis play with them no more. I'm tired. Like, I just want to win and then go. Those are a lot of them. And then I got tennis elbow. And I haven't played tennis in 20 years. Okay. And I think that's an old man's injury, tennis elbow.

Yeah. So I got tennis elbow right now. Charlamagne? I was born in 1978. So I thought the question was, what can't we do anymore after a certain age? Your memory's messed up. I can see it right now. Okay.

And he was just struggling with Instagram, too. He was struggling with Instagram. He's like, how do I tag Michael Bibbins? Can bibbins can somebody where my knees can my knees help me yeah when you get frustrated what can i do anymore damn near everything and especially everything i don't want to do and it'd be the littlest things like i realize now why our parents you know used to be in like the living room and they would call us no matter where we was at in the apartment or the house or the house or the trailer just to get them some water.

Get them the remote control. The remote control was literally right there. I'm talking about right there a foot away from you. Boy, when you be on that couch after a long work week or after a long day,

you don't feel like getting up to do it. Come use your little young legs and get it for me. Another thing I can't do anymore at my age, small talk. I don't want any small talk.

I have no problem either sitting around in silence or if you're talking to me about something I don't care about, I might tell you shut the F up

right in the middle of the conversation because I don't have time for the small talk. I don't care in no way, shape, or form. And you know another reason why I knew I was getting older?

I started wearing Crocs. Oh yeah. I started wearing Crocs. When I wore Crocs first, I was like, look at them ugly ass old ass people shoes. Nothing wrong with Crocs Oh yeah I started wearing Crocs When I won Crocs I was like look at them Ugly ass old ass people shoes Nothing wrong with Crocs Why you ain't mention hair dye?

In two years Hello who's this? Christina. Hey, Christina. What are some signs you're getting old? Oh, man. Everything. So, anytime I do squats, I can hear my knees cracking like I can actually hear a sound. Yep.

My elbows crack. I'm seeing a spine specialist right now and I'm only 40. Hey, that's real. Because sometimes when I be doing abs, man. No gas goes through? Can't stop. I don't even be trying.

You know what I mean? It's not like you don't even feel it coming. You just do a crunching at the same time. But you know what, too? And it sounds like I'm getting old, too. I don't know if this happens, but I pass gas when I sleep now all the time. Oh, you've been doing that. Oh, yeah.

You're just doing them big loud ones that hurt. So you wake up. That's how you know you're doing it. Hey, who in the house? Who in the house? Who is that noise? My kids be dying laughing. You said, who's in the house?

Hello, who's this? Are you what? Hey, it's KD from Milwaukee. You said something scary so loud. Who's in the house? No, I thought you said somebody was taking your butt. Oh, God. Why is it always going to take somebody's butt?

Because you're talking about farting in the D.C. You fart about who in the house. I'm like, what? Hello, who's this? Hey, it's KD from Milwaukee. Hey, KD from Milwaukee. We're talking about signs you're getting old. Well, I know I'm only 30, and it's a bad example for sure.

I got to carry a kit around with me that got Biofreeze, Ice Packs, all of that. Why? What was you doing in your 20s? Word. Well, I was always a sports head. So, I mean, recently, like probably like a year and a half ago, I was at a track meet and they had like a little parents relay. And I was like, you know what?

I think I still got it. I started running. I got 50 meters of the 100 meters. And all I know is I was on the ground next. How old are you? I pulled my hamstring and I I was on the ground next. How old are you? I pulled my hamstring, and I ain't been the same thing. How old are you? I just turned 30 in February.

Man, y'all is babies, man. If y'all don't cut it out. I will tell you another sign is always going to the doctor. If I get a pain, an injury, or any funny feeling, I go straight to the doctor. I'm just having good health insurance. That's what that means. Plenty of people who would love to just go to the doctor whenever they feel something. I'll go to the doctor. I'm just having good health insurance. That's what that is. No. Plenty of people who would love to just go to the doctor whenever they feel something.

I'll go to the ER. If something hurt too much, I'll go straight to the ER. I'll tell you another good sign is when you go to the doctor, you get a good report back. Oh, baby, you be so happy. Man, I got one Monday, okay?

It says, overall, my results are excellent. Despite a high calcium score for your age, there's only minimal plaque in your heart arteries. Furthermore, your cholesterol profile is excellent and well below goal on your current statin medication and aspirin, which I would continue. Your blood pressure and heart rate are those of a man 20 years younger. All these factors contribute to a very low 10-year cardiovascular risk of only 3.5%. Optimal for men of your age would be 3%, so you are in very good shape. What about your butt, though?

Salute to Dr. Puma and everybody at Soarin' Medical. What about your butt, though? Man, shut up, man. Your colonoscopy. That's a mask. I did that already. I got no polyps, no redness, no nothing. I think you need a second opinion.

but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.

her footsteps and not only be an amazing dancer, but be an amazing singer and storyteller i love to write music i love to sing and i just want to share that with the queen lizzo herself i don't mind the counter suit what do the pictures mean though the pictures mean nothing like folks small smile all the time when they're nervous plenty of people laugh when they're uncomfortable to smile that is true so what is it what does that mean but to say you were forced there against your will oh i agree what would you say against that this is the we take it to the courtroom it's kiki court what would you say yeah well i will say this in court it's you need a doubt right you need doubt that's what you need doubt and that picture might show doubt because like you said if

i was so uncomfortable i didn't want to be there i was forced there then i post a picture that that makes it kind of seem that maybe i was fine with being there but i won't say this a lot of times and not on this case but a lot of times uh an attorney will coerce you into doing something and then at the end of the day when she countersues back that attorney's not going to fight that case for free in most cases and now you're gonna have to come out your pocket so just make sure that whatever it is that you know what you're doing and don't let an attorney talk you into doing anything in any situation because these ladies i don't know if they have money or not if she counter sues they got to pay for an attorney right yeah yeah and as far as them uh going to the club i agree those people was grown like nobody forced them to come

but right they will speak about the power dynamic and say they couldn't tell her no because she's lizzo and we didn't want to tell our boss no. That would be their defense, I would assume. Well, we always know there's three sides

to the story, her side, his side, and the truth. There it is. When you're dealing with big people, it's a lot of...

Excuse me? What about us? I just want to see what you're going to say. Oh, okay. All right. In any case, with me,

it's what I said. Don't make me grab the strap. You ain't that big. Stop saying that. You keep. In any case, with me, it's what I said. Don't make me grab your strap. You ain't that big. Stop saying that. You keep saying that. Well, I mean, I have to represent for the fine and fluffy, and that's what I'm here to do now. Fine and fluffy.

Yes. I've never heard that one. Well, shout out to my brother, Tom Capone. That's how he describes me, and I love it. Now, let's move on to these crazy celebrity fans. Now, y'all know, since I've been here, I love Ja Rule, and I love Omarion. Everybody know that.

But I'm not crazy enough to try to run up in their house. And this is what's been going on with Nicki Minaj and others. Let's get into it. It was previously reported that Nicki Minaj had a swatter who had been calling the police to her house with false reports of child abuse and fires. I love this. This is crazy. But luckily, Nicki took to Twitter yesterday to reveal that the swatter has been identified and a warrant for her arrest was issued. She followed up by asking, is it worth it?

She said, what hashtag was it worth it, Dumbo? I love it. Drop on the clues box, Nikki Minaj. Get her ass locked up. Get her thrown under the jail. No mercy, no grace, no nothing. You know how intentional and evil that is to pick up the phone and do a SWAT call and say this person is abusing their child and whatever

else she was saying like come on man but think about it like this think about you know let's say you are like Kiki and you have you have your hammer with you your strap with you and they run up in your house you don't know it's a police officer and all of a sudden Kiki starts firing and they start firing you know when SWAT come down that can go real bad it could go bad if you don't know what the people are doing if they sleeping and all of a sudden Kiki starts firing and they start firing. You know when SWAT come down. That can go real bad. It could go bad if you don't know what the people are doing. If they sleeping

and all of a sudden somebody kicked down the door. But you know when SWAT come down. You don't know. She's sleeping. Do they come like that? I don't know how SWAT comes down. I don't think they knock on the door

and be like, hello, how you doing? They just kick down the doors and come running in. I don't think SWAT kicks in doors. Oh yes, and they lay everybody down

according to my life. How do you know about this, Kiki? Let's move on. Big Sean and Jhene Aiko also have some issues going on with a crazy obsessed fan. They were in court for a 29-year-old male with the first name Ian, who has become dangerously obsessed with a couple, showing up to events, concerts, and even their home. He recently caught on to the property, trying to break into the house,

and it was reported that janae is obviously fearing for her safety she went to file a restraining order but the request was denied by a judge now see you deny my request now anything i do after that i can't be held responsible in my opinion yeah you you can't deny that i mean if they have a person that's acting a little crazy and i got my child and my kid you you know, I mean, I got to defend myself. And I'm sure that restraining order was meant for them to defend themselves. And now if you come in my crib or on my property and I feel fearful of my life, I got to defend myself. Right. There it is. I'm a guy. I'm Kiki strap and let it go.

Daddy, I hear the story. I got distracted. I was Googling. I said, no, no, no, no. That is your rumor report. People's Choice Mix is up next. 800-585-1051. Let's get to the mix. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.

Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We have Kiki here, our guest co-host i just got to ask you one question kiki yes now up here for the last couple days you've been saying that you're two people that you love so much as omarion and jaru yes now tell us why okay so omarion i was obsessed with b2k okay i was one of the girls chasing the vans like i was really really oh yeah the whole spray painted shirts kiki and marianne forever together like it's a real serious thing um so i love him he's the top of the list okay and i'm manifesting our marriage and i feel like i'm one millennium tour away because every year we get closer and closer together i've interviewed him you know what i'm saying he's gone one more millennium

so i've interviewed him yeah i've interviewed him a bunch of times we got a good relationship now he knows who I am. Okay. So I feel like I'm getting closer to him. So let's say you're in a situation, Kiki, right? Let's say you got a boyfriend or whatever it may be. Yeah, I do have a man. So you have a man. And your man knows that you have this love and devotion for Omarion.

Yes, but you guys know I don't have a ring on my finger. So although I'm in a relationship, I'm technically single. Is that the pressure pressure you putting on him like look until you put a ring on my finger or marion is still still still on the table we want millennium tour away baby have you ever mistakenly call him a marion oh no or if you get an argument like a marion would never well yes i would absolutely say that yes that sounds like me okay and jaru jaru i just feel like i've always held Ja Rule down through the whole 50 thing. And I love 50 too.

But I feel like Ja Rule never gets the respect that he deserves. And he was such a big, important part of my childhood. And all them records still hit. So this will always be a Ja Rule, Irv Gotti. I used to think I was going to work for Murder, Inc. One point in my life. Did you? Yeah.

Still might. It's still possible. It could. Ja and Irv still got a lot of businesses. What you said is very true. Not only, Ja Rule's music has just aged very well. Yes. That's just all it is.

It's aged very well. As I'm grown now, it's very age-appropriate music, I feel like. But we didn't ride for him or appreciate him when 50 came on the scene. I feel like nobody was loyal but me. Did you have a strap during that time? I did. That's why I wanted to work for Murder, Inc. I feel like nobody was loyal but me. Did you have a strap during that time? I did. That's why I wanted to work for Murder, Inc. I felt like it was on brand.

But, you know, I gave my life to the Lord, so, no, now I'm here. Okay. All right. Well, Solomon, you got a positive note? I do. Before we do the positive note, I want to tell y'all,
