I hope so. Okay? Yes. Miss my sis. What an exciting time to be alive, man. We are a wake-up. A simple wake-up. A day and a wake-up to Election Day. That is right.
Starting point is 00:03:53 That's right. Did you early vote yet? No, I'm actually going early vote today. Can you? What you mean can't I? Why can't I? I thought early voting was just until November 3rd. No.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. And Jersey's just until November. Yes. Because I tried to go yesterday, but I missed the time. I thought it was until 6 o'clock. And I got there, I think, at like 4.05, and they stopped at 4. So I was like, I'll come back tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:04:16 And then they said, no, you got to come back Tuesday. Oh, well, I guess I'll be voting on Tuesday. I had planned to go today. I thought I was trying to go yesterday, but. No, I didn't know. Early voting is over. Oh, the time frame was up. The time frame was up.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Yes, you can't go until Tuesday. I'll go tomorrow morning then. That's right. Damn, I got to go early because I'm going to D.C. tomorrow. I'm definitely going to D.C. tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Yeah, so you got to figure that out. You got to go early. I'm going to go early. What time do I vote? Open to six or four? Something six. We got to figure that out. Maybe early in the morning.
Starting point is 00:04:40 I got to vote too. But what an exciting time. It is. Kamala Harris, Donald Trump, Tomorrow is election day I don't know why this feels different This don't feel like other elections It really doesn't
Starting point is 00:04:53 This feels like The most consequential election of your lifetime This one feels that way In a real way It absolutely positively does I think I feel more into it now especially because we were in the commercials and every time i go somewhere somebody be like i seen you in a commercial i don't give a to be honest with you i don't give a damn about that
Starting point is 00:05:12 i see it all the time and people you know people come up to me and talk to me more about this election than any other election so i think that's the reason why i just give a damn about uh where i feel like the future of our country is going so So that's where I feel like... Oh, it should go, yeah, absolutely. Oh, it should go. No, well, where it... It's going... By the way, it's going that way regardless, okay? You just have to know that. That's the other thing. Like, you know, regardless of who wins tomorrow,
Starting point is 00:05:34 America really has to do some real soul searching. Absolutely. Because I can't believe we're here in this position that we're in where you have somebody like Donald Trump who can be so bigoted, right? And who can literally literally we have there's women in this country right now that have less rights right now than they did when
Starting point is 00:05:51 i was born in 1978 think about that yeah so think about that so yes uh we have some real soul searching to do as a country but um tomorrow the soul searching that's right tomorrow is election day so you get to decide what kind of country you want to be. So make sure you get out there. That's the truth to the battle. And vote. Now, I want to salute Lauren Rosa, who is on the way. I'm sure she's listening.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Over the weekend, I got a chance to take my son to his first professional Major League soccer game, the New York City Football Club out in Queens. When I say it was, my son had the most amazing time watching soccer. Now, I've been to everything. I've been to Major League Baseball games. I've been to World Series. I've been to Super Bowls. I've been to playoffs and the NBA.
Starting point is 00:06:33 But when I say soccer, when I say they take it serious, my son was right along with them, Sharon, and he had such an amazing time. So, salute to the New York City Football Club for inviting us. Thank you, Lauren LaRosa, for setting that up. We had such an amazing time. So salute to the New York City Football Club for inviting us. Thank you, Lauren LaRosa, for setting that up. We had such an amazing time. If you ever get into soccer or if you want to check out your local professional team, you definitely should. Take your kids.
Starting point is 00:06:51 It was such a – my son had a great time. It was cold, though. It's crazy that the Giants and Jets suck so bad that you got New Yorkers that have to go to football now. Now, I love football. I love football. Football. I love football. Football.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Okay? It's a great sport. Salute to the MLS. But the fact that the Giants and Jets suck so bad in the middle of the season that you in here with a soccer, New York City soccer club, football, whatever jersey you're on. New York City football club. And you took your son to the game. I did.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Because you're tired of taking him. He's tired of the tears. Every time you take him to go see the Giants, he's just leaving tears. You're tired of that, huh? How'd your Cowboys do this weekend? We suck. Okay. Okay? All right. But it's okay. All right? You still going to that, huh? How'd your Cowboys do this weekend? We suck. Okay. Okay? Alright.
Starting point is 00:07:27 But it's okay. Alright. You still going to the Super Bowl? Yes, we are. Yo, shut up! My goodness. Alright. What you mean? As a Cowboy fan, I am obligated to say we're going to the Super Bowl until we are no longer in Super Bowl contention. Now, U.S. representative for South Carolina, Nancy Mace, she'll be joining us this morning. And also, Ro Khanna and Ja Moore.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Now, Ro Khanna is a U.S. representative from California. That's right. J.A. Moore is from South Carolina. Yes, he is. And we're going to be talking to them in a little bit. But when we come back, we got front page news. Morgan Wood will be joining us. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Alaris, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren La Rosa is here. Yes, good morning. And let's get in some front page news. Now, sports over the weekend.'s get in some front page news.

Starting point is 00:08:20 Ravens beat the Broncos. Rams beat the Seahawks. Eagles beat the Jaguars. The Lions beat the Packers. Vikings beat the Colts. And on Monday night football, the Buccaneers take on the Kansas City Chiefs at 8-15. What's up, Morgan? What's up, what's up? Hey, happy Monday to y'all. Y'all feeling alright? Yes, indeed. Alright, so in unfortunate breaking news, legendary record producer Quincy Jones, he has passed away at the age of 91. It's reported
Starting point is 00:08:44 that the Grammy award winning entertainer died peacefully at his home in Bel Air, California on Sunday, surrounded by family. But I'm sure you guys are going to get more into that. Let's switch gears and get into this election news. So tomorrow is Tuesday. It's the big day. November 5th. Front page news. Make sure you exercise your right to vote. And of course, shout out to all the first time voters. You know, you got a big responsibility tomorrow. So, Vice President Harris, she says she's cast her ballot in this year's election.
Starting point is 00:09:09 The Democratic presidential nominee revealed on Sunday that she completed and nailed in her California ballot. Her running mate, Governor Tim Walz, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, voted early in person last month in his home state alongside his son. Former President Trump has yet to cast his vote or at least let us know. Speaking of which, this comes as VP Harris had a busy weekend with stops in Georgia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. She also made a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live with comedian Maya Rudolph, who plays amazing sketch on the show. Yes, incredible sketch. The VP and her lookalike joked about her laugh, her name and Donald Trump while she gave herself a pep talk in what's supposed to appear as a mirror. Let's hear. Let's take a listen to Harris's skit on SNL.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Take my pommel. The American people want to stop the chaos. And end the drama-la. With a cool new step-mama-la. Kick back in our pajamas and watch a rom-com-a-la. Like Legally Blond-a-la. And start decorating for Christmas. Fa-la-la-la-la. Because what do we always say?
Starting point is 00:10:26 Keep calm-a-la and carry on the love. Yeah, so that skit that was partial of the skit appeared to be a copy of that of Jimmy Fallon. He did with former President Trump back in 2015. But the skit nonetheless was still amazing. Still cool. Meanwhile, a commissioner from the Federal Communications Commission, or the FCC, he took opportunities generally mean providing comparable time and placement to opposite candidates now on Sunday that was rectified and former president Donald Trump was given ad time during NBC's NASCAR broadcast and also afforded an additional 60 seconds of campaign time during Sunday night football coverage yeah so, so... See,
Starting point is 00:11:25 the only reason I like the FCC commissioner doing that is because as a radio personality here, folks don't understand that. Like, if you bring on one side, if the other side requests to come, you have to bring them on. People don't understand that. They'd be so upset.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Oh, I can't believe y'all have such and such up ahead. You gave somebody a platform. That's the way it works. People don't understand that. They'd be so upset. Oh, I can't believe y'all have such and such up in there. You gave somebody a platform. You gave somebody a platform. That's the way it works. You don't understand the rules and regulations. That's the way it used to be in media where you would know that that would happen. We say it all the time. You would know. You act like it's so strange, but years ago, that was normal.
Starting point is 00:11:59 You would expect it. You have to do it. It's FCC rules and regulations. If you bring on one side, whatever time you give them, you got to give the other side the opportunity to speak to them. The same amount of time. That's right. You just do it. That's the way it goes.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Equal time. And, of course, you guys, you know what's going on in D.C. Of course, the election is tomorrow, and they are already taking security steps and measures. We'll talk more about that at 7 a.m., so stick around for more Front Page News Day. Alright, everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Let us know how your weekend was, what you did, all that good stuff.

Her grandma didn't get to talk to her because she was partying at school? Probably not. Now, Margaret, you got to throw a little couple dollars in her. Throw a little couple dollars Grandma didn't get to talk to her because she was partying at school? Probably not. Now, Marga, you got to throw a little couple dollars in her.

She knows she can talk to Grandma for anything because that's the first grandchild, so she's spoiled. Oh, she's spoiled. Okay. I'm the first grandchild, too.

My grandmother my grandmother what you can't tell her nothing about me really you need to give her a wig back though oh my goodness hello who's this you started early huh boy i said that hello hey what's your name oh my name is marcella hey marcella marcella get it off your chest um okay so i have three things.
Starting point is 00:14:45 I'm going to be quick. I wanted to get off my chest. DJ Envy, I wanted to shout you out for all the mental stuff that you do, especially around suicide. My brother committed suicide years ago, and I've had a few students suffer that they want to take it out and not share my brother's story. And one of the ideas I want to share with you,
Starting point is 00:15:02 the next time you approach the topic, I don't know if they do it, but maybe it has those who contemplate it speak with those who survived it. Who survived the suicide of a woman. Because when I spoke to my students who said, I don't want to be here anymore, and I saw how my brother's suicide still affects my family and my parents, I could see the difference in their face. They don't realize that taking their life is going to have a big impact on the loved ones. Have you ever been to the Mental Wealth Expo that I do every year? We have a whole breakout room panel about that. But my guy, Jay Barnett, he's a person who actually survives two suicides himself. But then you have people who actually come to the Mental Health Expo
Starting point is 00:15:46 who have had family members, close relatives commit suicide, and you're right. You know, they talk about the grief that they feel, you know, having to deal with losing a loved one, the suicide. Yeah, I think that's beautiful. Charlamagne, I would like to shout you out because from the very beginning,
Starting point is 00:16:02 you said, I pay attention to things that Trump say and pay attention to what's going on behind the scenes. And he is a magician. He'll have you looking to the left. He really is the type you should be paying attention to. And I just want to reiterate that, especially with tomorrow being Election Day. The last thing is a blast. The Street Village Central School District at East Pawket, my nephew, Jalen, also a Thomas Chase quarterback, the senior count. And for the last point,
Starting point is 00:16:31 if you have to deal with racism and racist comments, not only from his teammates and his classmates, but even from his coach to the point where now his mom had chopped and involved in a lawsuit against the district because he's been exposed to the N-word a number of times. They sent some nooses to the point where she even had the treatment get involved,
Starting point is 00:16:53 but persevered. And I'm just hoping that this lawsuit goes through and three villages get the root of it so it don't happen to another black child or a child of color who can't, just want to expose them to a better education. Yes, ma'am. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:17:05 And not expect their mental health. Well, thank you again. And a salute to everybody. And I just want to tell everybody out there, there's always another way and there's always help out there. In my book, Real Life, Real Love, I talk about about what, 10, 12 years ago when I wanted to commit suicide and almost did. And we discuss it in longevity, well, in length about the process and everything that I had to go through.
Starting point is 00:17:30 And I do go to a bunch of different schools and a bunch of different places talking to students and kids that have that on their mind. And it's easy to say, well, they shouldn't be thinking about that, but being in that position and having that thought process at one time, I understand what you
Starting point is 00:17:45 guys are going through and i understand i've been there i've been at my lowest at times so uh and i will continue to do that and maybe i need to talk about that more because we you know we go to a bunch of different schools a lot um but yeah i'm glad you just got to tell people not to make a permanent decision based off temporary feelings yeah no absolutely but you know the main thing is people feel like uh in life life would be better without them there that their family would be better without them there uh and they put that in their mind and i even put that in my mind and it's something that i had to really you know to really find within myself and do work on myself to figure out a better solution in a better way of course course. But I'm glad that, you know, your students and your relative was able to take the other
Starting point is 00:18:26 route. All right. 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.
Starting point is 00:18:37 I'm telling. I'm telling. Hey, what you doing, man? I'm telling. I'm calling. I'm calling you. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.
Starting point is 00:18:45 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Chris. Chris, what's up, brother? Get it off your chest. What's up, man? Good morning, man.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Good morning. I just want to say, man, Wayne did his thing at Louisiana Fest. That was classic. That was for the culture. And I love that, man. Lauren was there. Yeah, I seen some of the clips. Yeah, yeah, I seen Lauren there, man. That was classic. That was for the culture. And I love that, man. Lauren was there. Yeah, I seen some of the clips. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I seen Lauren there, man. I know Charlamagne go crazy over Kendrick, man. But they supposed to have Wayne at that Super Bowl. But I feel like this was a little better than the Super Bowl. You think so? Because they do all the classics. They've been arguing online about that since the show yesterday. Yeah, but that's silly.
Starting point is 00:19:22 And I'll tell you why it's silly. That Hot Boys reunion was perfect for Louisiana Fest. You know why? Because when you think about the Super Bowl, I know it's in New Orleans, but it's literally a national event. Like, the reason that Louisiana Fest and that Hot Boys reunion hit so hard
Starting point is 00:19:36 was because it was in New Orleans. That wouldn't have happened. That wouldn't have hit so hard anywhere else. And be hung up on the guy, per usual. Why you hang up? I didn't hang up. He hung per usual. Why you ain't got it? I didn't hang up. He hung up, actually. I didn't touch it.
Starting point is 00:19:47 Hello, who's this? What's up? Hey, this is Anna. Hey, Anna. Good morning. Get it off your chest. I'm waking up this morning with a heavy heart. We lost Quincy Jones, American legend,
Starting point is 00:20:02 one of the best composers of the 20th century, from the first kid to the last, including Off the Wall, they were in and back, and We Are the World. I love Quincy Jones, but that brother was 91 years old. That brother lived. You hear me? He lived. He lived a life. 28 grand
Starting point is 00:20:28 a life. A full life. He produced the hit show, French Prince of Bel-Air, The Color Purple. He wrote the theme song from The Cosby Show. I mean, we could talk about Michael Jackson, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra. That man lived a full life. Yes, he did. Okay, him and
Starting point is 00:20:43 Clarence Avon were two of my favorite people to watch, so, you know, only thing I can... When I hear stuff like that, I don't even... I be like,
Starting point is 00:20:51 damn, God bless. I don't even feel any sense of sadness because he lived a full life. Yeah, we gonna take some time to, you know, pay tribute to him this morning, too,
Starting point is 00:20:58 so keep listening. Yeah, I hope you guys do because he is... He transcends culture, movies, just like Indy said, composing the theme to, I think it was Mission Impossible, the original Mission Impossible. Yep. You know a Quincy Jones song when you hear it. He is the 20th century when it comes to pop culture. It's heavy.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Yes, he lived a long life. And it was an extraordinary life. And I just hope everybody takes the time to recognize how much you've touched every part of the world. I mean, there's so much out there about him. You got his books. You got his documentaries. Like, Quincy Jones produced for Frank Sinatra. Like, you have to, like, fly me to the moon.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Like, it's like he did. Michael Jackson, Rachel. So many, yeah. Full life. Yes. A full life. Well, thank you,, yeah. Full life. Yes. A full life. Well, thank you, Mama, for calling in this morning.

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. It's okay.

Starting point is 00:28:24 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now we lost another legend. Quincy Jones has passed away at the age of 91. His publicist told a few outlets and the ap according to um his rep that last night uh filled with broken hearts his family decided to share the news that their father and brother quincy jones has passed away although this is an incredible loss for their family they said they want to celebrate the great life that he lived and know that there will never be another like him and man when you say that there will be another like him
Starting point is 00:29:05 in an incredible, full, great life, it's almost like an understatement. He lived so many different creative lifestyles. He was a musician, a songwriter, producer, conductor, arranger, artist, record label owner, executive, TV and film producer, magazine publisher, humanitarian, author. Like there's just so much that he did,
Starting point is 00:29:25 and he spanned across so many different genres. R&B, pop, classical music, like, just so many different things. He was a 28-time Grammy winner. He won an Academy Award, two of them, actually. He won an Emmy for Roots. There's a lot that he did I'm not even going to be able to get it in this full segment
Starting point is 00:29:46 but also worth mentioning he was one of the first black executives to really thrive in Hollywood and because of that he helped so many artists be able to put
Starting point is 00:29:56 he put their careers like on their back he arranged music for Frank Sinatra Ella Fitzgerald he composed soundtracks for Roots in the heat of the night
Starting point is 00:30:05 he produced uh on the color purple he was an ep of the fresh prince of bel-air he produced i didn't know this one i saw this this morning when i was reading just about some of his stuff he produced and organized uh bill clinton's first inaugural celebration he oversaw the all-star recording of we are the world uh in 1985 that charity record that they did for relief in Africa. There's a documentary about that. Yes, Thriller, Beat It. There's so much. Off the Wall.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Yes, and we grabbed some of the music and the things that he composed that a lot of people probably wouldn't even know that he had his hand in. I know a lot of it I learned this morning. I'm going to close bombs, right? Yeah. that's why you should watch his documentary on netflix quincy it came out i think about five six years ago i'm gonna watch it yeah you learned so much about you've always heard about like i've always heard anyway um and just knowing how many different people across genres and across uh career paths that he's worked with just how much of a great composer and he just was able to he's kind of like a chameleon he was able to do so much and i'm saying i don't think anybody today could do that because
Starting point is 00:31:08 he really just took everything out of it no bias no anything just did what he liked to do well that man lived a full life 91 years old we should be so blessed to live that long but what he did with those 91 years like we throw the word icon around very loosely nowadays we throw the word legend around very loosely nowadays quincy the word legend around very loosely nowadays quincy jones was the pure definition of all those things absolutely i want to um also to san francisco um sun theme song and a doc charlotte uh you watched the doc right did he talk about like when a lot of these different earlier in his career when a lot of these different opportunities would come his way how he knew which ones to say yes to because everything he did was like
Starting point is 00:31:44 super legendary but like was he strategic about that it seemed to me like Quincy Jones did what he wanted to do like you know and that's what I respect I respect longevity people who aren't defined by an era they just always find ways to reinvent themselves that was Quincy like he was the algorithm he wasn't a surfer he was the way people put themselves in unnecessary boxes nowadays because they give people what they feel they they want right not what they need when she gave you what you need yeah he was a musician he he created the sound like that's what we don't have now he's creating the sound for the next generation when he did michael and when he did all the things that he did which is amazing he was so ahead of of his time. Well, one last music listen that I want us to listen to,
Starting point is 00:32:27 Austin Powers, the theme song for Austin Powers. I didn't know he did this one either. That tripped me out. I watched that movie so much. What happened with that one, he did that in the 60s. He did the original and they recreated it. I don't know if they recreated it. They just used it.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I think they recreated it. They did? I think so. I don't know if they recreated it. He did it in the 60s. It's called Soul Bossa Nova and they used it for think they recreated it they did i think so i don't know if they recreated it he did it in the 60s sold bossa nova and they used it for the austin power correct got you got you man to live a life like that they said it took him 20 minutes to do that 20 minutes to do that do you know well y'all know that austin power franchise is so big it's huge and like everything that that was probably used for is amazing yeah wow but i mean
Starting point is 00:33:06 when this morning like you said he lived a full life 91 years old is a long time here you got to see a lot i know i went to his instagram just to see kind of what like some of his last posts were and the last post i saw was something posted with his daughter talking about how he you know was just so happy to be her dad so he lived a life he had his family you know saying rp to the legend that austin powell song it was used by jud Judy Garland in the second episode of the Judy Garland show in 1963. So just think about how that one piece of music, you know, has been used for so many different things. He first did it in 1962. Then it was used for Judy Garland.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Then it was used for a couple other movies. The Palm Broker, Take Money and Run. Then it became the Austin Powers song. And he's he's just an incredible human man amazing to be blessed like that because he's from Chicago I was reading about um his upbringing it literally came from like nothing that's right to be and to be blessed like that watch the doc on Netflix y'all yeah I'm gonna go watch it tonight to learn more about Quincy Jones. Okay? All right. Legend. All right. That was just with the mess with Lawn LaRosa.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Now, when we come back, we got front page news with Morgan Woods. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:34:17 We are the Breakfast Club. Lawn LaRosa filling in for Jess. And let's get in some front page news. Now, in NFL, some quick sports. The Commanders beat the Giants.

The Eagles beat the Jaguars. And did I say that the Falcons beat the Cowboys? And the Monday Night Football! Did you hear about how your Giants got beat to the Commanders?
Starting point is 00:34:46 See, you lack self-awareness so much that you be trying to clown when your team is at the bottom of the NFC East. I know that. Your team got a worse record
Starting point is 00:34:54 than us. But I'm not delirious. I didn't say my team is making it to the Super Bowl. Neither am I. So what? It don't matter. But my point is
Starting point is 00:35:01 shut up. No. Your team is at the bottom of the NFC East. I accept it, though. So accept it. And don't clown nobody else for what they team doing. No, I accept it.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Don't clown nobody else. You got to accept being on the bottom as well. Self-awareness. Think about where you are as a Giants fan. And accept it as well. You got a soccer jersey on right now because your team is so bad in football. No, I don't have it because of my team. Because I went to a soccer game this weekend.
Starting point is 00:35:21 That's why. Because the New York football teams are so terrible. No, because my son loves soccer. Y'all looking at another football. No, my son loves soccer. Nope. Yep. Good morning, Morgan! Dang, y'all. Good morning. Okay, so tomorrow... You better stop it. Both of your teams won. You don't even know what team, what fan
Starting point is 00:35:35 you are. Yeah, no, I'm good today. Yeah. Tomorrow is Election Day, y'all. Tuesday, November 5th. On top of Front Page News, make sure you exercise your right to vote. Shout out all the first-time voters voters you guys got a big job to do tomorrow so uh yeah trump claimed y'all the only way he'll lose tuesday's election is if there's cheating so he's been busy and his campaign has been busy attempting to clarify recent comments made by the former president over the weekend the campaign says the gop presidential nominee
Starting point is 00:36:02 was looking out for the media when he was talking about assassination attempts targeting him during a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday. Let's take a listen to Trump at this rally on Sunday in Pennsylvania. I have a piece of glass over here and I don't have a piece of glass there. And I have this piece of glass here. But all we have really over here is the fake news, right? And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don't mind that so much. I don't mind.
Starting point is 00:36:45 I don't mind that so much. I don't mind. I don't mind that. See, it's the same type of stuff he do and then be like, I don't know where it came from. Yeah, so it's like he'll say that, you know, they'll tell everybody else to tamper down on their rhetoric because that's what causes people to try to assassinate him. But then he'll do things like that and then act like it never happened. He'll act like everybody else is the one that's saying the type of rhetoric that could cause violence but what was that just now well in a statement trump's campaign spokesman said that he stated the media was in danger and that should have uh glass and that they should also have a glass protective shield as well
Starting point is 00:37:21 yes you know what you should stop doing, Morgan, and all media should stop doing? Stop trying to explain his BS. I'm not trying to. I know you're not. You're just saying, you're giving their explanation for it. It sounds ridiculous. So the spokesman added, there can be no other interpretation of what was said.
Starting point is 00:37:40 The statement ended with, he was actually looking out for their welfare far more than his own so explain explain explain why he said i wouldn't mind that i'm about to say that that that sounds like a green light to me and that's what i don't understand when they when they release these statements like well explain why he said i wouldn't mind that then listen y'all i'm just reporting it so meanwhile florida senator marco rubio he's defending former President Trump's comments made by a speaker at one of his rallies. In an interview on CBS's Face the Nation, the Miami Republican downplayed the joke by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe that Puerto Rico was garbage.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Let's hear from Florida Senator Marco Rubio in regards to those comments that Trump made. A comedian made a joke and it was tasteless, but it wasn't Trump that said it. It wasn't, this guy's not going to be in his cabinet. I mean, this comedian is not going to be a member of his government. He's certainly not running for anything. If it had to be done in hindsight, the guy probably doesn't get invited. OK, especially with a joke like that. The sitting president of the United States said out loud what most people in the Democratic Party and hierarchy believe.
Starting point is 00:38:39 And that is that anyone who votes for Donald Trump is garbage, is a racist, is a hater, is a Nazi. It's not what he said, though. And I don't even like defending Joe Biden. What he said was anybody who supported that comedian's jokes is garbage. Yeah. So Rubio Rubio, excuse me, went on to defend Trump's comments again. These are a lot of comments that Trump said about former U.S. Representative Liz Cheney after she endorsed Harris, adding that she wouldn't be a, quote, war hawk if she was standing there with nine barrels shooting at her. Now, a war hawk is a person who advocates for aggression, excuse me, aggressive foreign policies or armed conflict.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Now, Rubio also went on to say that Cheney shouldn't face a firing squad, but was instead trying to make the point that so-called war hawks wouldn't be so pro-war if they were placed on the front lines. Sheesh, this is getting heavy stuff, y'all. Please go out to vote. Anyways, switching gears and bringing things home to New York, a judge is setting a trial date for New York City Mayor Eric Adams on federal corruption charges. Judge Dale Ho set April 21st, 2025, for Adams' trial date to start, which is a month later than the speedier March trial date Adams acts for. Now, Adams faces a possible Democratic primary in June, not long after that, if he stays in the race for reelection.
Starting point is 00:39:57 In addition, Adams attorneys are trying to get the bribery charges against him tossed. Judge Ho said he would consider the arguments made in court and attempt to rule shortly. Meantime, prosecutors also said they're still unable to access the mayor's personal phone. One year after they seized it, they say Adams changed the password. The day before, he knew they were coming, and he said he can't remember what that password is.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Yeah. I wonder who Eric Adams is voting for. I know, right? Because lately he's been very vocal about like not calling Trump a fascist and things like that but he's also you know along Democratic Party lines vocal has been very clear about who she supports he's been on the fence
Starting point is 00:40:34 yeah I feel like he gotta say neutral right now right just in case you know he might need to call on whoever wins he need that pardon me now he forgot the password yes alright y'all so that's your front page news I'm Morgan with follow me on social Pardon me. Now he forgot the password. Yes. All right, y'all.

Starting point is 00:41:15 We are The Breakfast Club. Long and Rosa filling in for Jess. We got some special guests joining us this morning. We got U.S. Representative Ro Khanna from California. And we got J.A. Moore from South Carolina. California. And we got Jay Amore from South Carolina. South Carolina State Representative Jay Amore. Welcome. How y'all feeling? Great to be on. Good to be here.
Starting point is 00:41:31 What do you guys think about the rally in New York at Madison Square Garden? What were your thoughts? Here's the thing. Maya Angelou once said that words are things. And you've got to be careful about how you use words. Now, I'm a free speech person but that doesn't mean all speech is good speech we teach our kids to be thoughtful about how they use words because of respect we have had this situation in this country that if you think something is funny that somehow that's a license to insult people just because something is funny doesn't mean that you can denigrate people based on their race and gender and just say, oh, OK, I was just making a joke.
Starting point is 00:42:10 I thought the vile attacks on racial groups in the context of a political rally was horrendous. And someone needs to say, yeah, OK, you can have humor, but not everything in this country can be justified uh just because it's funny i just thought it was bad politics it's like you know a week before the election you know and you know you're gonna need latino people you're gonna need black people you're gonna need jewish people you just put somebody up there to insult them kind of crazy yeah i mean i i think it's just another misstep uh by by the trump campaign and trump himself it was a desperate i don't know it was i don't even know if it was desperate and i was just nuts it didn't make sense i don't know why you
Starting point is 00:42:51 would you know would all do respect i'm a nicks fan would all do respect to new york why you would do a rally in new york anyway when it's not a battleground state that makes sense it was a terrible move on this part you uh what's the stop Wall Street landlords like, bro? You know what's going on right now is private equity. These big companies, they're buying up single-family homes. And they're buying up largely in working-class neighborhoods. By doing that, they're making the prices of these homes go up. And they're making the prices of rents go up. And your and my tax dollars are subsidizing them.
Starting point is 00:43:22 So this says stop giving them a subsidy. You shouldn't have Wall Street firms getting tax dollars to go buy up single family homes. And by the way, they're doing them largely in black and brown communities across this country. And it's outrageous. If you stop Wall Street from doing it, how do you make it the way people from the community can actually not just purchase those homes, but have the equity to reinvest into those homes and renovate them? Well, that's a big, big question, why homeownership has gone down, the biggest source of wealth.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Homeownership is about 62% in the white community, 45% in the black community. One, you need to build more homes so that you can bring the price down. But, you know, the bottom line is you've got to have higher-paying jobs. I mean, you've had jobs in this country where the working and middle class stagnate in wages and one of the reasons i wanted to come on and ja and i've been working on is you know i represent silicon valley 12 trillion dollars of value apple google intel nvidia we've got to create those high-paying jobs in many other parts of America. If you look at the bulk of wealth generation in this country over the last 40 years, a
Starting point is 00:44:31 lot of it has come out of technology. And whether it's high-paying manufacturing or high-paying technology jobs, we've got to actually do that in communities so people can go have a salary to buy a house. We did a summit, JayaA. and I and others, in Claflin with 40 historically black colleges and universities. We got Apple there. We got Google there. We got NVIDIA.
Starting point is 00:44:52 We got Microsoft. They've created a program, 71% placement rate, 18-month course, 10 hours a week. You end up with a $65,000 to $100,000 job in different technology skills. It doesn't even require coding. We've got to create more opportunities for people to actually build wealth in a modern economy.
Starting point is 00:45:11 That's how they're going to be able to afford housing. Let me ask you a question though, right? So I believe in you and I feel like, especially our community, most of our generation of wealth starts from home ownership, right? Passed down from generation to generations. One question I do have is is sometimes when you put these laws into effect it just doesn't affect the people they are trying to get it affects other people let me break it down right so for instance my dad was a police officer
Starting point is 00:45:33 police officer he retired my mother worked at a life insurance company didn't make a lot of money they saved all their life they bought their first house for twenty eight thousand dollars right lived in that house for 46 years so now now it's worth, let's say $500,000, $600,000. When they pass, they pay taxes on that house. They paid everything that they needed to pay for the rest of their life. When they pass that house down to their child, they have to pay taxes on that. That child who gets that house has to pay taxes on that again. That's behind the buck for somebody that's trying to make it. Now, if this was somebody else, like let's say a Donald Trump that received a million dollar loan and his family has wealth i understand it but how can somebody in these communities create wealth when they're getting
Starting point is 00:46:12 taxed twice like somebody else and they don't have the same tax breaks they don't know their same accountants that's my only problem when i hear some of these things because i get it yes people have to pay their fair share when you have people that come from those communities that are trying to create generational wealth for the first time, first time millionaires, first time people making $500,000, it affects and hurt them as well. Especially too, because a lot of times in those situations,
Starting point is 00:46:36 by the time it's passed down to that second or third generation, the mom, dad, grandmother may owe money that now you inherit and it's a lump sum. So it's not just like, oh, I got to pay the taxes for this year. It might be like a lot of money that they just been figuring it out. And now, you know, and now it's in your lap and you got to figure that out or you don't own that house anymore. So what do you say to those people that saying like, yeah, I agree. But, you know, my mom just sold her. She paid twenty eight thousand.
Starting point is 00:46:59 I sold it for five hundred thousand. Now they're taking 40 percent taxes on property that she already paid tax. How can they create generational wealth when they're starting behind the eight ball already? I hear you. I think we should have an exemption for passing down your actual house to family. Maybe exempt the first $2 million or up to $5 million and we can figure it out. And that's not going to cost the federal government a lot of revenue. You know what's going on right now, because while you're taxing the guy you're talking about or daughter you're talking about, who is getting a half a million dollar house passed to them and they're having to pay tax. At the same time, you got these multi-billionaires in my district in Silicon Valley. They buy
Starting point is 00:47:41 Facebook stock for a thousand bucks. That stock goes up to a hundred thousand. They pass that stock. They don't pay capital gains tax on it. Then they pass that stock down to their kids and their kids don't pay any of the appreciation. So you've got a rigged system that is hurting the working and middle class from building wealth and allowing the top 1% to continue to build without paying tax. And the Republicans are very clever. Every time we say we want to tax that top 1% or 10%, they talk about all the other 80%. They said your taxes are going to go up.
Starting point is 00:48:13 What the Democrats have to say is no. You're working class, you're middle class, you want to build wealth. We're going to give you an exemption. We're going to shift the tax burden to the multimillionaires who have benefited from this system. But one more point to you, and look, I'm all for home ownership. I think home ownership is, we've got to figure out more ways to get the disparity not to be 62% in the white community and low 40% to the black communities. But technology, here's what I fundamentally believe. It's a general... As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know
Starting point is 00:48:52 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. It's okay.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

The black community was excluded in the agricultural revolution with the loans from the USDA that were targeted. Excluded in the manufacturing revolution. Shame on us as a country in 2024 if we exclude communities from the digital revolution. There is an opportunity in one generation to build extraordinary wealth with AI, with new technology, with new industry.
Starting point is 00:54:39 And that's what I want to try to say is, why't we get these opportunities to to more of the community so they actually can build wealth that you never will overcome the racial wealth generation gap just with taxation and redistribution unless you overcome the racial wealth generation gap all right we got more with roe connor and john moore when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj and v jvy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Law and the Rules are filling in for Jess. We're still kicking it with Ro Khanna, U.S. Representative from California,
Starting point is 00:55:11 and John Moore from South Carolina. Now, we're one day away from elections. How do y'all feel? I'm hopeful. I'm optimistic. I think that I believe the young people are going to come out and vote for Harris. I think this thing is overblown in terms of you would know more about the black vote, Latino vote. I mean, a lot of the men I meet, they're voting for black men and a lot of Latino men are voting for her. So I think that she's going to win the Michigan, Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 00:55:40 It's going to be close, but I think the polls actually are underestimating her support. And, you know, you made a great point about this image of why is it that we think traditionally of the Republicans as the business party? Because that's that's all that Donald Trump is running on. You know, frankly, if he had never had apprentice, he never would have been president. Hate's not enough to become president. I mean, the Madison Square Garden stuff wasn't enough. It's because he had 14 years in people's living rooms as being this business guy and the Trump sign. And I think we've got to be, look, all the new wealth,
Starting point is 00:56:13 the technology, the innovation, all of that's not being created by the old class. It's a whole new generation. It's a whole new group of entrepreneurs. I consider you guys entrepreneurs. That's the new wealth. That's the new wealth. That's the new innovation. And I fundamentally believe that's when Kamala Harris says she's for the future, that's what she represents.
Starting point is 00:56:32 And I think that's the image that's going to prevail. And I think it's going to come down to maybe I'm biased because I'm from South Carolina. But I think if we win North Carolina and we win Georgia, we win. And I've had the pleasure of traveling. I just got back from Nevada. I mean, I feel cautiously optimistic. And everywhere I'm going, I mean, I'm in the Uber. People, this is much, the more Donald Trump talks and does crazy stuff like he did here
Starting point is 00:57:00 in New York, the better Kamala Harris has. I mean, I think, I feel good about it. I'm cautiously optimistic about it it's just interesting to me that you know with all of the things trump has done i don't even need to run down his whole resume but when i just look at two impeachments 88 criminal charges 34 he was convicted of to me that alone should be disqualified like why isn't there anything that legally that prevents him from even being on the ballot i know they got section 3 of the 14th amendment yeah yeah but supreme court shot that down well you know the congress the people who let him off the hook were mitch
Starting point is 00:57:38 mcconnell and kevin mccarthy i remember talking to kevin mccarthy after we impeached donald trump in the House. And I said, and Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell are talking about how terrible it was, what he did on January 6th. And I said, well, this is the reason we've got to convict him in the Senate. And I said, oh, Donald Trump's done. He's not coming back. His numbers were at 30% in the polls. Wow.
Starting point is 00:58:02 They didn't think he would ever come back. Wow. And they let the guy off the hook in terms of if they had convicted him back then he wouldn't have been able to run and uh it was the biggest error and i i blame the senate for not having the the guts back then to convict him but this point in the media which which i've heard you make a number of times is absolutely right i mean no one they're asking kamala harris every detail of every plan i'm fine but no one is pointing out the fundamental
Starting point is 00:58:32 point of the the convictions and the illegality and the total uh shocking nature of trump's candidacy i want to ask you about the Section 3 of the 14th Amendment because the Supreme Court, you know, they say it's not up to the state when the state's trying to take him off the ballot. It's not up to the state, it's up to Congress. Congress would have never done that because it was a Republican-led Congress at the time, right?
Starting point is 00:58:56 It was a Republican-led Congress at the time and the Senate would never have done it. And the Senate was not even willing to convict him of the actual charges. And they all thought, by the way, McConnell, you ask them, I'm sure it'll come out in their biographies. They all thought that what Trump did was an impeachable offense and convict him. But they said, why should we upset 30% of our base?
Starting point is 00:59:18 Because his numbers were down at 30%. Why should we upset 30% of our base when the guy's going to go away anyway? And we're going to have a new generation nicky haley ron but by the way you remember ron desantis was their big thing they all thought ron desantis was going to win yeah they they had written dot trump off they thought trump would go away quietly and that's why they didn't want to put their necks out to upset 30 of that base i think the think the biggest problem is that nobody treats Trump like the actual threat that he is. The DOJ didn't treat him like that. The media
Starting point is 00:59:50 doesn't treat him like that. Voters don't treat him like that. And so it's just like, yeah, if there's no consequences to your actions, what are we supposed to do? And I think we also take for granted the segment of the population that he inspires.
Starting point is 01:00:07 And I'm, you know, good people and all that, but it's something about that 35% that you're talking about. They're not going anywhere. And if you have that kind of base, especially going into a primary, I mean, you're well positioned. And then so many other people, my colleagues, even at the state house in South Carolina, just all keep falling in line
Starting point is 01:00:27 because they're so worried about their own political futures and not about the country. And I think all of us over these next, what, seven, eight days left, we need to be aware of that. And we, like, no one can sit home. I'm telling all the brothers out there now that can hear me,
Starting point is 01:00:43 don't have a non-vote protest vote against the Democratic Party. We can't afford to do that this time. We just cannot afford to do it. And after this election, whatever grievance you had and you voted, just you know, and felt whatever, just take it up with the elected
Starting point is 01:01:00 officials and hold us accountable once we get elected. Elect Kamala Harris on November 5th and then hold all of us accountable as elected Democrats. I mean, that's really my call for the brothers out there that can hear me. And the media is scary. I mean, look at all these people, these billionaires who are owning the newspapers. Washington Post, yeah, LA Times. Suddenly they're saying that, well, we may not want to endorse because Trump may win.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Now, what is that vote in terms of the media actually standing up to him if he wins? This is the classic tactic of authoritarian leaders, that they intimidate any dissent. And it's not that people often wonder, well, how do they get to power? It's not that people suddenly all start rallying around them. It's that they get enough of a base rallying around them and they put enough fear in everyone else to say, OK, we're going to as long as they don't come after us. We don't want to get in the way. That's right. Well, go out and vote. And we appreciate you guys for joining us this morning. Really do. Thank you. You got an election coming up, too.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Oh, yeah. November the 5th. I'm on the ballot too, guys. Jay Moore, state representative. Jay Moore, South Carolina. And of course, Representative Ro Khanna. I do too, in California. And we got to win, not just my seat, we got to win four Democratic House seats out of California to take back the majority

Like you really just felt it. Something just hit different. Oh my God. It hit so different.
Starting point is 01:06:33 It's like Kendrick's pop out show hit different cause it's in LA. Yes. This hit different cause it was in New Orleans. It hit so different. And I know that there've been so many conversations. You remember back at Essence Festival, it was supposed to be a reunion and Wayne did his own thing. like so i was curious i'm like yo how did this all come about because not only were they there but y'all they were in great spirits like they were so happy
Starting point is 01:06:52 um so we talked to i did the live stream the pre-show live stream with amazon on amazon prime and twitch and we got to talk to uh turk juvenile and many fresh uh let's take a listen to turk because what i learned was that little Lil Wayne was the one who made the phone calls to put it all together. Let's take a listen. I'm more happy than the fans, I believe. Really? Yeah. Was it emotional for you when it finally came together? What was the moment? Because Juvenile said that
Starting point is 01:07:15 Wayne was like the connecting piece. Everybody listens to him, right? So was it a call from Wayne? What brought it all back? A call from Wayne. What was that like? A call from Wayne. They were like, me? You calling me? You feel me?
Starting point is 01:07:28 It was like a God answered prayer, you know what I'm saying? You know, sometimes you have a lot of adversity. You have a lot of people trying to stop things from going forward. You know, just to get that right energy to finally come, you know what I'm saying, man? Weezy, you know, it's God. God worked through Weezy. And what y'all going to see tonight is nothing but God. I'm glad everybody got it.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Wayne the only one who could have brought it together because he's the one in the position of power. Like, that's Wayne. Like, you know? They said by the year 2000, Wayne was going to tear this game up. And he did that. So now, you know what? Let me come back and bring it all back together. And we also, too, for time's sake, I didn't throw this in there, but I wanted to mention it, too.
Starting point is 01:08:06 When I was talking to BG and I was asking him, like, man, when you were locked up, did you think that this would be, like, happening? Like, I know that you're watching them and they're doing well. Wayne's doing well. Baby's still doing well. But did you think that you'd be here right now and this would be happening? And he said to me, he was like, honestly, I felt buried alive when I was there. Like, because everything just kind of stops and people are moving,
Starting point is 01:08:24 so you don't really know what will happen when BG came out on that stage. Y'all the, I literally just stopped and started recording the crowd. He didn't even have to sing the way that they like received him. I was like, wow. Like these, this,
Starting point is 01:08:38 they, they mean so much. Yes. Yes. Um, we also talked to Manny fresh. Cause remember Manny fresh was up here at the Breakfast Club with Juvenile. And I asked them when we get the reunion.
Starting point is 01:08:48 They were like, oh, we got to have the conversations. Come to find out. They knew the whole time it was going to go down. Let's take a listen. Last time I saw you, Breakfast Club, we were trying to figure out if this would happen. Now we are here. Yeah. I told y'all.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Speaking into existence. It's going to happen. Oh, man. You already knew it was happening, though. Yeah. Okay. Did you know then, months ago existence, it's going to happen. You already knew it was happening, though. Yeah. Did you know then, months ago, that this was going to happen? Yeah, the first half of the deposit got... With my bank account.
Starting point is 01:09:13 The money had been came through. Yeah, I got the first half of it before I talked to y'all. Right, right. So I was like, it's going down. Y'all played that so well. I thought that that was lit, too, because it was it was like okay it's been months in the making rob for nine mentioned that too he was like no wayne's been working on this like he been wanted this to happen um now when they also too you guys heard mouse jones in that audio shout out the
Starting point is 01:09:34 mouse jones and wayno they hosted the uh pre-show with me my guys um now when they came out on stage because wayne did like a metal a melody of songs and then he brought them out many fresh actually came out and brought them out let's take a listen to that they did uh hot boys that was the first song they came on stage too Yeah, so it was like y'all had everybody separate because Wayne did it. Wayne did his songs. BG did his songs. Turk did some songs. Juvenile did some songs.
Starting point is 01:10:17 And then they brought everybody out. They did Hot Girl. Baby came. Baby was there as well, too, on stage with them. They did Back That. Back That Ass Up. Back That Ass Up. I didn't know I could say that word. They did a bunch of different songs. And then when they ended it, came baby was there as well too on stage with them they did back that um can i back that ass up oh back that ass up i didn't know i could say that word they did a bunch of different songs and then when they ended it wayne was like man you know i'm so happy to be here shout out to my brothers
Starting point is 01:10:32 but watching them on stage together i have videos that i posted to bronco grinding it was literally like little kids like like little brothers just reuniting and they were so happy we all five was a perfect song for them to come out to because they all go back and forth. You know what I'm saying? And that's why there's one video where they're doing that. That's the perfect song for them to come out to. One video I had, they're literally on the front of the stage and like Wayne's hopping in front of BG then BG hops, then Turk.
Starting point is 01:10:55 It was just, I was like, man, you felt the love from the stage and even in talking to them, I felt the love. Now there was one point toward the end of the show, because Wayne was honored. He was given a key to the city and Master P came came out on stage which i also thought was dope knowing the history between no limit and cash money and the hot boys and all that um and master p was telling people like wayne is going to be the first person in new orleans to receive a star on the new orleans walk of fame on canal street um and they gave him the key to the city but then wayne had
Starting point is 01:11:22 you know something to say about the whole super Bowl conversation. Let's take a listen to that. During my lifetime, the first Super Bowl was here. I made sure I bought tickets at the beginning of the season. I did the same when I moved to Miami. And I was wishing my team making it. And guess who made it that year? The motherfucking Saints. I was able to give my mama that sweet.
Starting point is 01:11:42 She was able to bring my family and other people from New Orleans, and they had a ball. That moment I said to myself, I want to be on stage for the Super Bowl one day in front of my mom. And I worked my ass off to get that position, and it was ripped away from me. But this moment right here, they can't take that, man. They can't ripped away from me but this moment right here they can't take that man they can't take that from me so everybody of course you know the word ripped away from me and then
Starting point is 01:12:17 you play mr carter after they're like oh these are shots at jay-z again reigniting that whole conversation and i will say i do wonder was was wayne promised something that's that's what i want to know because he's taught he's very entitled or he was promised something i would like to know which one it is well he had a conversation i thought after i seen the interview he did after i thought and he was in the dressing room and he was talking about that he i guess felt like it was his already well that's what i mean was it a sense of entitlement or was he promised something i don't know i would like to know but when i heard that i had actually went backstage because this was after
Starting point is 01:12:49 like he did more songs after the reunion happened i was like yo i need to take a break went backstage we watched it on the monitors when i heard ripped away from me i said oh wayne is starting to fire again he's starting to fire again but it was it was a really really great night and i know you said that you saw some people asking about why drake wasn't there i didn't feel like i see jimmy dupree said uh you know he's a hip-hop lover and he felt like drake missed the moment but i disagree with you drake said it was a it was a a reunion it would have been had nothing to do with him yeah it would have been really weird not weird like awkward if drake was there no no like no shade because he just didn't fit like that's what he said he said it was a hot boy reunion he was there last year
Starting point is 01:13:24 but he was like y'all don't realize how long Lil Wayne has been around Lil Wayne's been around since like 97, 98 when him and BG was doing the Baby Gangsta
Starting point is 01:13:32 projects together so that hot boy thing has nothing to do with Drake has nothing to do with Young Money even Manny Fresh right who you know has produced a lot of those songs yep
Starting point is 01:13:41 a lot of the show Manny Fresh even took a step back and let them have like when they was many fresh even took a step back and let them have like when they was doing that bar for bar going back and forth many fresh step back he just let them go so drake being there would have been really i like it didn't make sense it was like i know my audience is different than wayne's i'm just here to support you know what i mean it was really their moment and y'all when i tell you that sold out crowd that was a real
Starting point is 01:14:00 sold out crowd was having his own moment in Toronto. 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. It's okay. Like grace.

And, you know, I will never lie to you and tell you that who you vote for will solve all your
Starting point is 01:20:45 problems that is just not true that is just not accurate but who you vote for can make your life a little bit better or it can make it a lot worse and I don't know about y'all but I'm tired of the country flirting with fascism okay we at some point have to realize the nuclear weapons that we are playing with I started to say fire but we're not playing with fire we're playing with something a lot worse and I don't understand why so many of us can't see how this man Donald Trump just continues to play in our face I will never understand why Republicans chose this man to represent them again. It's mind-boggling to me. I mean damn near Any conservative could have represented the GOP better than this but instead they continue to prop up the most divisive president in American history I really have asked myself
Starting point is 01:21:22 What is God trying to show America through Donald J Trump and I really believe in my heart of hearts that he is just a reflection of so many people in systems in this country just a whole outdated way of thinking all together it is my sole belief that Donald J Trump is the Frankenstein monster of white supremacy okay white people don't even know what to do with Trump this is what happens when that privilege and power goes unchecked it eventually cannibalizes cannibalizes the very system that created it okay that's another story let's get back to why trump is getting donkier the day to date okay over the weekend he made a couple of statements that would be disqualifying for anyone else but
Starting point is 01:21:57 not trump by the way i don't even know what disqualifying means anymore because there is no real qualifications to be president and trump has shown me there is nothing you can do to not be able to run for president either but this weekend trump said two things uh first one when folks like myself would say if people uh when folks like myself would say what he said people would say i was overreacting and i was talking crazy but i always said uh trump isn't leaving the white house if he loses in 2020. He damn sure tried not to leave by leading an attempted coup in his country. But this weekend, he said the quiet part out loud. Let's listen.
Starting point is 01:22:33 On the last Sunday rally before Election Day. We had the safest border in the history of our country the day that I left. I shouldn't have left. Former President Donald Trump told a crowd of supporters that he shouldn't have left the White House after the 2020 election and took an aggressive jab at the media while describing the protective glass around his podium on stage. And I have this piece of glass here, but all we have really over here is the fake news, right? And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news.
Starting point is 01:23:11 And I don't mind that so much. I don't mind. Trump's campaign quickly put out a statement after the Lancaster rally, saying in part, the president's comments weren't about the press, but instead about his own personal safety in light of two assassination attempts against him earlier this year. A lot to unpack there. Eddie, isolate the second part for me about the media. I want to come back to that.
Starting point is 01:23:34 I want to talk about the first part of what he said. Now, maybe he meant he shouldn't have left as in voters shouldn't have voted him out. But when you look at the fact he tried to stage an attempted coup on january 6th uh 2021 and you look at the fact now that he's projecting and by projecting saying how democrats are going to steal the election even though the only people currently doing everything they can to suppress the vote is the republicans all right they are already are purging voters and trying to restrict the 2024 u.s election vote in georgia they are suing to block hand-returned mail ballots they just lost two back-to-back lawsuits in north carolina and pennsylvania republicans were challenging voter registration procedures they are the ones trying to manipulate the election but we will get to that after tuesday because it's going to be a lot of
Starting point is 01:24:21 that after tuesday trust me because donald trump is not going to accept the results of this year's election just like he didn't accept him in 2020 it's just this time it'll be a lot worse but i will say nobody will ever deprive the american people of the right to vote except the american people themselves and the only way they could do this is by not voting you know who said that fdr okay now the other reason trump is getting donkier today is simply because he said he doesn't mind reporters getting shot at. You just heard it. The man has already said he wants to jail journalists. He's suing CBS right now for $10 billion.
Starting point is 01:24:57 The man once sued Bill Maher in 2022 at a rally. He said that if reporters don't reveal their sources, he will put them in prison until they do. And now he said he don't mind if reporters get shot at. rally. He said that if reporters don't reveal their sources, he will put them in prison until they do. And now he said he don't mind if reporters get shot at. Listen. I have a piece of glass over here and I don't have a piece of glass here. But all we have really over here is the fake news. And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don't mind that so much. I don't mind. I don't mind that so much. I don't mind. I don't mind that. In Trump's campaign, spokesperson said the president's comments weren't about the press,
Starting point is 01:25:53 but instead about his own personal safety in light of his two assassination attempts. The president's statement about protective glass placement has nothing to do with the media being harmed or anything else. It was about threats against him that was spurred on by a dangerous rhetoric from democrats president trump was stating that the media was in danger and that they were protecting him and therefore were in great danger themselves and should have had a glass protective shield also the man said to get to me they would have to shoot through the press. But I don't mind that. Right. But yet his campaign said he was stating that the media was in danger.
Starting point is 01:26:30 Yeah, they in danger because you putting them in danger by encouraging people to shoot through them if they want to shoot at you. This is the type of playing in our face that I'm over. OK, nothing to see here, folks. I'm tired of flirting with fascism, doing this dance with authoritarian rule. Y'all not tired we keep talking about all this violent divisive rhetoric coming from politicians but it's only coming from one person and then you have everybody telling the truth about that one person now my favorite thing about these comments is how trump supporters right now right now as they listening to me they are playing games of twister by themselves trying to justify why he
Starting point is 01:27:03 said what he said that's why I'm not talking to them. Okay, I want to talk to us. What are we doing tomorrow? Abraham Lincoln once said elections belong to the people. It's their decision. Sadly, it's up to us to stop all of this. Okay, personally, I don't think you stop dictatorship through votes. But since Merrick Garland and the DOJ didn't do what they were supposed to do a long time
Starting point is 01:27:23 ago, here we are. Okay, Naomi Klein once said democracy is not just the right to vote. Merrick Garland and the DOJ didn't do what they were supposed to do a long time ago. Here we are. Okay, Naomi Klein once said, Democracy is not just the right to vote. It is the right to live in dignity. Tomorrow, we get to show the world if we are indeed a dignified country. Are not? Please give Donald Trump the biggest hee-haw.
Starting point is 01:27:50 We shall see. That's the same thing he did with january 6 he said all that stuff and it was like i don't know why that happened i didn't say it like that it's unbelievable and then people died and then the man literally said he wouldn't mind if people shot through the reporters to get to him and then his campaign people said well that's not what he said i guess if we didn't hear what he actually said right all right well thank you for that donkey today yes ma'am now when we come back nancy mace will be joining us u.s representative for south carolina that's right and we'll talk to her next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj nv jious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:28:28 Jess is on maternity leave, so Lawn and Roses filling in. And we have a special guest in the building. We have Nancy Mace. Welcome. And thank you for having me. Great to be here, finally. What's happening, Nancy? You know me and Nancy went to high school together?
Starting point is 01:28:40 I think I heard you say that before. She looks so much younger than you. Shut up. How was Charlamagne in high school that you remember? Was he a bully? No, I don't. I don't know if we knew each other. He was only there for a few months, but we dropped out of the same high school the same
Starting point is 01:28:52 year, and our moms taught school together. Well, she dropped out. I got kicked out. You got kicked out. Right. He came and arrested me. Why'd you drop out? I had been raped by a classmate of mine at 16.
Starting point is 01:29:07 And I just, it's not your fault. It happens a lot. And I just decided I couldn't go back to school. At that point, I'd kind of given up on myself and my parents. Mom was a school teacher. My dad is retired army. And they're like, if you're going to stop going to school, you have to start going to work. I don't know what your parents said to you, but mine were like, go get a job.
Starting point is 01:29:28 I got a job at the Waffle House on College Park Road in Latsin, exit 203. And I was a Waffle House waitress for a couple months when I decided maybe I wanted to get my high school diploma and not be a Waffle House waitress the rest of my life. So how did you go from Waffle House to being a U.S. Congress representative? Oh, it's a great story. I love that. Well, I had, it's steps. And it's also, you know, God's hand in hand in some ways divine intervention you talk about that a lot but um i would eventually go to college and i went to the citadel the military college of south carolina it's a place where my dad went there had been no women there
Starting point is 01:29:56 in 154 years and i was the first when i applied i was the first class of women to go there i ended up graduating the first woman from the Citadel 25 years ago this year. I'm feeling my age, feeling kind of old. And then the rest is sort of history. And I started my own company in 2008. I did a little entrepreneurial work. And then I ran for state house in 2017, 2018. I won.
Starting point is 01:30:22 I was served for three years. And then this seat, I won it from a Democrat in 2020. I flipped the seat. The Post and Courier asked the question that a lot of people ask. What side is Nancy Mace on? Because you challenge Republicans a lot, but then you vote, you know, a lot. Well, actually, and I wrote that op-ed because I want people to ask a question and then answer it. I'm actually the, of all 435 members of the House, I'm the 22nd most bipartisan. So I'm like almost top 20 most
Starting point is 01:30:52 bipartisan, yet I get pilloried in the press by certain media outlets that I'm a raging partisan. Am I conservative on most issues? Yes, but there are a lot of issues where i'm maybe to the left or socially moderate on i do a lot of civil rights work i do a lot of work for women because i'm a survivor of rape i've been through domestic abuse and i know how terrible our laws are at the federal and the state level but i've worked a lot rokhana you've you talked to him earlier again ro and i do a lot of tech and cybersecurity computing type of legislation together. But that's not it's not sexy. It's not clickbait. It doesn't get you likes when you're on X or views when you're on Instagram.
Starting point is 01:31:32 It's not the sexy thing that the media likes to talk about is when we get along. There's they like divisiveness. It pays ads. I mean, that sort of thing. But I'm actually been really effective in working with both sides of the aisle. But I also call them out. Republicans and Democrats alike are the reason that things cost so much with inflation. How do you deal with like because with your, you know, the experience that you had with being a survivor of rape? I know that like you do get a lot of pushback because you're pro-life and you have a pro-life voting record, but you push back on other exceptions for abortion
Starting point is 01:32:07 when that conversation happens on the Republican side, that must be a lonely place to be. I will tell you, it's a little confusing for some people too, probably. I have no friends in Washington. It is an extremely lonely experience
Starting point is 01:32:22 when you're calling out both sides or even when you call out members of your own party. There's so much middle ground and there's so much we can do for women together and yet neither party wants to do it like when i and you see it on both sides of the aisle they just use it as a political wedge but what have we done for women what have we done substantively for women in the last couple of years i would argue very little and so i've been fighting really hard i have bills that would address domestic violence, rape, incest, voyeurism, revenge porn, a lot of issues, IVF, contraception, birth control. I have a whole portfolio that I've focused on that I believe both sides can
Starting point is 01:32:57 agree on because we're not doing enough. We're just further dividing ourselves by having these arguments when there's 95% of the things, even when you talk about abortion, I'm pro-life, but I have a 15 to 20 week second trimester limit. At some point, you got to say this is an infant that deserves life. Most people don't want abortion in the third trimester, but all of us think first or second trimester. So there's, even if you're pro-choice, you're likely, you likely have limitations around the second trimester too. And so I just believe there's a lot of common ground and we're not having those conversations. Are you a Trump supporter? I voted for him.
Starting point is 01:33:30 Why? Well, I mean, in my party, the man who has been leaning on women's issues on the forefront has been Trump. So for the first time in our party's history, we he added to our party platform this summer at the Republican convention, IVF, that we want to protect IVF, that we want to protect women who are victims of rape, victims of incest, the exceptions that I just spoke about. No one else has done that before. He put in the party platform, we want to protect contraception and contraceptive access. Those are things that had never been done before. And so for me as a woman, I have someone that I go to, I bend his ear on women's issues because that's really the thing that I've been harping on the last couple of
Starting point is 01:34:10 years are women's rights, balancing the pro-life with pro-woman. I think you can do both. Does he listen? I heard you say that he listens to you. I feel like he does listen to me. And then he's taken steps to put those things in the party platform, despite people saying, well, maybe we don't want to do that. He did it anyway. And I think it's really important that we have someone that isn't beholden to other organizations or big money, that he does what he believes is right. Even if you disagree with him, I think we can all agree he's not really beholden to any one person. He's doing what he thinks is the right thing to do.
Starting point is 01:34:44 He might be beholden to Putin. I don't i don't know about that nobody wants russia to win i just i don't want russia to win and i'm a republican i think it's the ideas that porn you have this trifecta now with russia iran and china it's very dangerous very dangerous um we've got to stem that tide and break that up at some point um it's going to become a real problem globally now the narrative has been is is donald trump is racist uh they believe he's a fascist what's what's your thoughts on all that i don't believe so so um i've done a lot of civil rights work so i had a bill signed into law when i was a state lawmaker it was a prison reform bill for women and i modeled it after the First Step Act that Trump signed into law, prison reform bill in December of 2018.
Starting point is 01:35:26 And it was bipartisan. And when you look at the impact of that, it's improved the lives of 90% of the individuals that it has helped improve are black Americans. So question, if Vice President Kamala Harris wins, right, and she wants to legalize marijuana, would Republicans in Congress vote for it? Or would they say no because it's a Democratic president? I don't think it matters. I mean, there are some of us, not all Republicans are for it. I actually have a bill that would be federal reform. It's descheduling.
Starting point is 01:35:54 In order to do cannabis, you have rescheduling is okay for now, but you have to deschedule it and decriminalize it. And at any rate, so I have a bill for that. It doesn't matter who's president. If that can become law, I would support it. But not every Republican supports cannabis. it and and at any rate so i have a bill for that doesn't matter who's president if i can if that can become law i would support it but not every republican supports cannabis there are fewer of us that do i'm one of them that does but i've worked with both sides on cannabis i've worked with both sides on issues related to mass violence for example women's issues there is a lot of common
Starting point is 01:36:19 ground but you have to have the courage to actually raise your hand and say we're gonna do this work no matter even if it costs me my next race we need to do it because it's right for the people. There's just not a lot of that in Washington. All right, we got more with Nancy Mace when we come back. She's the U.S. representative for South Carolina. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:36:38 It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Nancy Mace, U.S. Representative for South Carolina. Charlamagne? Talk to us about this bipartisan border bill that Republicans and Democrats agreed upon. In the Senate. And then Trump said, no, don't do it. Why didn't that get done?
Starting point is 01:36:57 Well, it never passed out of the Senate. And so I did to that bill. We never voted on it in the House. The House actually sent over H.R. 2, which was a conservative border security bill in May of last year. That bill came through the Senate, but it never passed the Senate, so it never even got to the House. So in that particular bill, and I read it with my staff like the debt ceiling bill, there were good ideas in the debt ceiling bill, but on the next page you would see, oh, there's the loophole that totally skirts around the good idea. That bill was the same way. So it was essentially, when you read it, there would be
Starting point is 01:37:29 a good idea on page one, but then on page two, there was a loophole that would give Secretary Mayorkas, for example, carte blanche to do whatever he wanted. There were loopholes on every other page. And so it really wasn't worth the paper it was printed on. It wasn't going to do what it was intended. And my problem is the lack of honesty, lack of integrity and a lack of truth just tell the people the truth and then they can decide for themselves is if that bill really is what you say it is because oftentimes it's not what Washington likes to do too is they'll title a bill oh this is rainbows and unicorns for all people and then you read it has nothing to do with rainbows and unicorns right and so there's just a lot of i think uh performance and magic you know it's just it's not what it is with the performances like in politics that you're talking about right
Starting point is 01:38:16 so like how does it work with you like a uh so for instance if kamala harris is elected president and you have to work with her there has been times like the cnn moment where you've like you got in trouble for saying her name wrong and people are upset about that and then kamala doesn't know what a woman is those remarks how do you then sit with her like do you guys have conversations behind closed doors first to get all that out the way so you can can work together or does that not even come up like how do you remove the performance that happens yeah so i'm always willing to work with anyone who's willing to work with me. And oftentimes, if staff are open to working together, like I have a rule in my office that we don't block anything. If someone wants to do business with us, if someone wants to work with us, regardless of party or
Starting point is 01:38:55 political affiliation, we will do it. I mean, I've sponsored bills with progressives. I've sponsored bills with people on the Freedom Caucus. So all the folks. But I mean, in that particular instance, I felt like I was being ganged up on on air. A lot of people haven't been able to say her name right because her name wasn't been in the news every day. I know how to say it now. It's Kamala. I've got it down.
Starting point is 01:39:13 I've got it right. But one of my issues too was being ganged up on as a woman live on air. And then the hypocrisy during the commercial breaks of, hey, can I grab a selfie? And, you know, 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
Starting point is 01:39:45 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.
Starting point is 01:40:09 It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty

Listen to Gracias Come Again on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I don't mind it. We'll have the colloquia on air and you do whatever you want to do. But then behind the scenes, you know, send me a kissy emoji. Tell me how gorgeous I am.
Starting point is 01:45:02 Tell me we look good together and all that whole thing. Because it was just kind of an act. And so it like i'm just gonna call it for what it is i was probably the first person in congress that entered into the congressional record at text with a kissy emoji i don't think it was a mispronunciation it was when you said i'll say her name however i want to i could say it however i want to and i was like nancy had a drink i did not i did not but you know during the commercial breaks you know how it is you're taping and you're doing this and it was just
Starting point is 01:45:26 the hypocrisy was what was grating me because behind the scenes on commercial break begging for the selfie picture you know
Starting point is 01:45:32 hitting on me all that stuff and I was like okay oh so that happened and then y'all came back yes yes
Starting point is 01:45:39 it was all going on at the same time and so that's why I was just like okay it's not okay to label somebody and gang up on them in public but then have a completely different position in private i i don't like hypocrisy and i don't like people who aren't being honest talk about the uh the violence against
Starting point is 01:45:58 women reauthorization act because some people say you know you say you're a champion of women but you voted against it yeah well i voted for a clean reauthorization so the first one that came through had some i believe like red flag laws that they were putting into it and i think we have to balance constitutional second amendment rights with violence against women and so um i voted for a clean reauthorization of that bill. And in fact, I've gone back since then because when I dove into, I just got through a domestic abusive relationship. There was domestic violence and I went through the system and I was like, wow, this is how women are treated. And I learned about the Violence Against Women Act, what it did to protect victims'
Starting point is 01:46:39 rights and also what our state does to protect victims' rights. And I realized there's even more we can do. So since that time, i have created legislation one in particular there's a revenge porn civil tort with when the violence against women act but it's only civil revenge porn yeah it's civil it's civil not criminal so it didn't make it a crime at the federal level so i have a bill that would fix that there's a civil tort that would allow you to have a civil right of action for revenge porn at $150,000. So I have a bill that would increase it to $500,000. There is nothing in there about voyeurism.
Starting point is 01:47:12 So I have a bill. Voyeurism is when you record someone without their knowledge or consent or permission in an intimate way. So I've gone back and I'm doing things to strengthen, to actually strengthen it now that I've learned so much about how victims' rights are and are not protected and what it does and does not include. And I like to do small bills that will make a big difference. A lot of times people will do really large comprehensive bills and they'll put things in there that people can't agree to. I like smaller bills that are up and down. So these are all different pieces of legislation that will hopefully get an up or down vote. And if you disagree on something, you have a chance to say, no, I don't like these big Christmas tree bills, but let's do one thing at a time and have small parts.
Starting point is 01:47:52 Small bills make a really big difference. And when you do these massive bills, things get snuck in. And you're like, what did we just pay for? Why did we do that, though? I don't know. We have these giant spending bills, these continuing resolutions or omnibuses that D.C. will manufacture some sort of crisis. Everyone's going to shut down if we don't do this. And so then they have these giant spending bills.
Starting point is 01:48:12 All of a sudden you realize your tax dollars are going to pay for trans kid clothing. I mean, things that most people would not want to agree with. Or, you know, this is what happened last year. It's just, what did we just spend money on i voted for gay marriage twice but i don't think you should be spending federal government money on just gay nursing homes i think all nursing homes right why are we just specifying gay nursing home yeah there was a million dollars last year i mean i didn't know there was a thing there were gay nursing homes apparently but um watch what y'all said they're gonna use y'all i don't want i don't want tax
Starting point is 01:48:45 i don't want tax dollars paying to incentivize illegal immigration i mean there's just you know there's just things that i think common sense wise we don't need to be paying for government doesn't even be paying for sex change surgery i mean just those things will get stuffed in there if you don't read the fine print and that's why i vote against almost all of the fine print when it comes to the big spending bills because they're just ridiculous things in there that you and i both sides would say the average bear would be like the average person but why are we doing this why do we vote for that so uh tomorrow's election day so what's your message to people we're asking people to get out and have their voices heard and to vote and we need as many people to come out and vote on
Starting point is 01:49:23 election day it's your right as a citizen. And we want to make sure that your voices are heard. The polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. in South Carolina. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Good luck. Thank you. Nancy Mace, ladies and gentlemen, and we appreciate you for joining us. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me. And it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:49:39 The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to Jess with the mess with Lawn LaRosa. News is real. We're in the headlines. Jessica Robin Moore.
Starting point is 01:49:53 Jess don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. She don't scare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shoes With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa
Starting point is 01:50:07 I'm back And I got the man Talk to me So over the weekend, the Raptors played the Kings And Drake and Chubbs were there for the game And there was a ton of video that went viral from this game Because Drake and Chubbs were on the side Chubbs, for those who do not know, is Drake's right right hand man he's a part of ovo they were on the sidelines
Starting point is 01:50:28 of the game and there's a point there's two points so the first video that went viral was drake just standing on the sideline and the way that him and chubbs were looking at the rose and as he walked by people were like oh there's shade there's tension and then there's another video uh that fans pointed out where you can see Drake's lips say something and fans are saying that he said the P word. I can't say that right. No. Yeah, the P word. What, pretty?
Starting point is 01:50:51 No, it wasn't that. I mean, they can be pretty, but that's not what the P word I'm talking about. Cat. Pussycat. There you go. Gotcha. Yep, that he said that to DeRozan. Now, at first you're like assuming maybe this is happening and then it then it was very direct so
Starting point is 01:51:06 drake began to do some sideline commentary uh let's take a listen to what he went there don't get me fired up tonight i got a lot shout out to vince carter man i don't think people understand that's our first retired number unfortunately we're playing this goof tonight but it is what it is you know what i mean speaking of national treasure yes if you ever put a derosa banner up, I'll go up there and pull it down myself. That's the answer to your question. Is that what you were going to ask?
Starting point is 01:51:30 No. Well, you know DeRozan and Kyle. The statues are next. Yeah? They are. Drake, thank you for joining us. Oh, they're cutting me. I'm getting cut.
Starting point is 01:51:45 You're not. You're not. What is Drake mad about? The fact that Mara DeRozan was in the Not Like Us video and he got a mention on the Not Like Us record? That's what the streets are saying, okay? That's corny, I would assume. Now listen, I think Drake was joking there.
Starting point is 01:51:57 I think that's sarcasm. I think he was joking and playing. I mean, even though Drake do be trolling legendary at these games and all that, you know what type of troll that's going to be and how that's going to be picked up and received if you do it. I think he knew that. So if you know that, then you stirring the pot. I was joking.
Starting point is 01:52:10 If you say that, you stirring the pot. So what about all the ice grilling and calling him the P-word when he walked by? Did you think Drake was going to fight him? I ain't ask you that. I said, what about the ice grilling and calling him the P-word? You think all of that was trolling? Well, we don't know if he called him the P word. You got people that said they read his lips and that's what his lips said.
Starting point is 01:52:29 It looked like it when I saw it. I don't know. Now, no. Okay. So, DeRozan was asked about this and he responded. Let's take a listen. Today's broadcast is very exciting. If you ever put DeRozan's banner up, I'll go up there and put it down myself.
Starting point is 01:52:41 What's your reaction to that? Well, he's going to have a long way to climb to take it down. So, I'll tell him good luck. Now, go ahead. I was just going to say, you know, if Drake was trolling, it just shows how much of a poor decision maker he is. Because the reality is the reason he's really, really, really, really lost his battle is because of the way he's handled everything after the fact.
Starting point is 01:53:01 He shows that it's bothering him. So, even if you're trolling you're still showing that you're bothered and when the rosen was here we asked him about it and he said you know kendrick is hometown but i mean drake is cool like he was drake is cool but kendrick is hometown let's take a listen now you played in toronto for years but then kendrick's from compton drake is from toronto that's your guy how do you how do you choose what you're gonna get into and what you're not gonna get into At that point
Starting point is 01:53:26 Love them both But at the end of the day It's like I'm from Compton Like my city Where I'm from Where I'm born Like where my family still live
Starting point is 01:53:34 It's like That comes first before anything Any real person Will understand that You know And that's just what it is Have you spoke to Drake? No I haven't talked to him
Starting point is 01:53:41 I haven't talked to him You ain't sent him a text To be like you good? Blocked him. Nothing? Don't send him no football emojis. Oh, it's Super Bowl. Oh, you're sorry.
Starting point is 01:53:49 Listen, it's dope regardless of how everybody look at it. I think it's dope. Go back to the content thing to see somebody from content headlining the Super Bowl. I need a source close to Bejman. Envy. Yes. All of this. Is it really this serious? It's music.. All of this. Is it really this serious?
Starting point is 01:54:05 I don't know. It's music. I don't know. Is it really this deep? I didn't speak to the sources about that. You are the source. But the Rosen's problem, his jersey's going to get retired in Toronto.
Starting point is 01:54:14 Like, let's be honest. He played there nine seasons. He's an all-time leading scorer for the team. So his jersey's going to get retired there. Regardless of any of that, I'm just saying is all of this worth, like we heard about the unfollowing on the Instagram. Now he's on the sidelines and they ice grilling and he's jokingly, whatever.
Starting point is 01:54:32 I don't know these people's relationships. I have no idea. I just don't think it's that dead though. So why you say the man trolling? You were so good to say he trolling. I had to say he trolling. It seemed like he was trolling to me. He's loud. You had to be the president of the bench committee 10 minutes ago.
Starting point is 01:54:40 You called him a goof. Now you want to step down. There was no handshakes, no hugs, no nothing. They was ice grilling like he was birdie on above the room. They was laughing. I don't know their relationships. I don't know. I want to see if Chubbs really crashed something.
Starting point is 01:54:51 That's what I want to see. No, you don't want to see that. Stop that. You do not want to see that. No, we don't. We don't want to see that. Salute to OVR. We don't want to see that.
Starting point is 01:54:59 But I'll tell you this, man. Drake has handled this all wrong. Okay? The fact that he just always seems so bothered. I've never seen a diss record get in somebody's spirit the way that Not Like Us and all of this stuff has gotten in Drake's spirit. But you've never seen a diss record this big? No, I haven't. That's the reason why.
Starting point is 01:55:17 I really just thought it was. And next year, Kendrick will win a Grammy for it. Kendrick will win a Grammy for Not Like Us and Euphoria. Then he's going to turn around the very next week and do the Super Bowl. You know what I think we need to know? I need to understand how deep was Drake and DeRozan's relationship. And that's what I'm saying. We don't know how close they were.
Starting point is 01:55:34 That sounded nasty for some reason. I don't know why. It was the how deep. Because he was in Toronto for nine years. We don't know if Drake held him down. We don't know. That's what I'm saying. We don't know how cool they were. How deep was it, Envy? I don't know. Pass my pay grade. I don't know if Drake held them down. That's what I'm saying. We don't know how cool they were. How deep was it, Envy? I don't know. Past my pay grade.
Starting point is 01:55:49 I don't know. You don't get to that level of deepness. No, not that level. You don't go past the knuckle, Lord. Your pay grade is the same. Only get that level of deepness with one person. Who? Diddy.
Starting point is 01:56:00 No, you. Diddy gone. You don't go deep. You better stop. You so happy to race, you better relax over there. Like that Palo Santo. You said that an hour ago. You were here talking about Chuggly to crash out.
Starting point is 01:56:14 That'd be so funny if them three little boys come and give Chuggly an away. Spell Drake with that Palo Santo. Spell Drake. Just spell it out. Seriously, Drake need to stop acting so bothered. Like, let it go. He really should have took the break that he said he was going to take after he took that l but that should have went away for a year i'm gonna climb
Starting point is 01:56:30 up there you can't get on a you can't get on a broad not a broadcast like that and you know you drake in the middle of all this and say that no you cannot you know what that's going to do you already look you already look super bothered we know you bothered by it and then here you come with this look at you what you're doing over there that's like the that's you communicating to the beige people through that dance what's wrong with you i don't know try to figure out make it rain pee whenever you see beige people doing that little dance they're gonna make it rain pee and dirty yellow colored canary color what's the name of the people drake said he needed to have um he said not the call for them to come the what owls no you gotta ask o, he sent out the call for them to come. The what? Owls?
Starting point is 01:57:05 No. You gotta ask OVO Eli. Send out a call for them to come. There's no call for Eli. That sounded crazy too. We gotta wrap up. I don't know. Like what call
Starting point is 01:57:16 are you talking about? Evie, do your dance while he do the ooh ooh. No. That is just with the mess. Now when we come back we got the people's choice. Come on Evie.
