We'll be right back. plucks at six o'clock in the morning for no reason i'm drinking a sparkling water that's why hey all right good morning tez good morning dj mv and charlemagne the god teslin figueroa what's happening now let's talk about this plane crash where our four children were found alive after 40 days yes unbelievable story uh after 40 days in the colombian rainforest four children ages 13 9 4 and 1 who have been missing since the plane they were traveling in crashed on may 1st have been found alive when rescuers reached the site of the plane's wreckage last month the bodies of the three adults on board were found but there was no sign of the four children known to have been on the plane as of now it is unclear how they managed to survive for so long in a thick jungle that is prone to heavy rain and contain dead wires and yes absolutely uh being the snakes however they did say that these are indigenous

children so their knowledge about the jungle helped them survive that's god all day drop on the clues bombs for god god be god do we know the 40 days 40 days and 40 nights do we know the ages of those kids yeah the ages were 13 9 4 and 1 4 and 1 that's my that's my that's my that's my family jesus christ close to my family i have 14 7 4 and 1 could you imagine a one-year-old in the jungle 40 days eating everything that they have to eat and that one-year-old doesn't talk and and and then you gotta wipe the wow that is that's god that would be an amazing movie or an amazing tv show too bad there's nobody to write it because all the writers that's true all the writers are still on strike you know i pay attention to

numbers a lot and i just thought the 40 days you know again talking about 40 days and 40 nights and you know it's just it's a lot significant to that so it's really going to be interesting to see um you know how this story continues to, I guess, unfold. And we hear more about it. I do want to tell you a little bit about the plane crash, though, before we go to the next story. The pilot reported engine failure and declared an emergency before the plane disappeared from the radar about 730 a.m. On May 1st, after the plane crash and rescuers were on the scene, they used a recording of children's grandmother uh telling the children to stay in place and that people were looking for them so i thought that was really interesting wow yeah you should give them some more insight on the 40 days 40 nights test what do you say jesus resurrection was what 40 days was it no no there was 40 days

between jesus resurrection and ascension yeah at 40 day 40 is a is a deep number in general like it's a lot of stuff you can talk about with 40 days and 40 nights but 40 is a very um significant number you know in the body if you want to look it up go look up numerology and look up the number 40 and on one last question was that a a big plane like a 747 was that like a small engine no it was a little small small little engine plane yeah they were going from um you know these were indigenous people yeah they were going from um you know these were indigenous people so they were going from i guess i don't want to say tribe because i don't want to miss misquote it but just going from one area to the other they were amazon

uh from the amazon so apparently these children knew how to find seeds and you know different types of food and the 13 year old i believe they said cut up some of the clothing to wrap the one year old i mean just got really creative i'm having to tell chat gpt to write that movie man wow yeah and then one other thing i thought was so interesting they left uh the kids would leave uh or the 13 year old left uh little trinkets uh where they would you know go throughout to be found so they would like scissors or a baby bottle or of kind of leaving a track in order to find like hansel and greta yes yes this is a deep story yeah now let's talk about the uh southern baptist vote to ban women pastors yeah southern baptist will have the opportunity to vote on a measure that would enshrine a ban

on women pastors within the denomination the amendment will require that no women at the church hold the title as pastor. A less binding agreement was already in existence for a very long time, but the office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by scripture, but this vote would make it official. So that's always been something that the Southern Baptist Church has believed in, that women cannot hold pastoral roles or minister roles but people have done it throughout the years uh but now they're they're deciding to you know decide you know if they should make it official or not what kind of terrible sermon did a woman give that made them say you know what no more women can give

no more women can give sermons to hear anymore lord have mercy they need to turn pastor sarah jake roberts on i bet you they won't want to ban woman pastors after they hear her that's a lot of reason why uh the church went to non-denominational uh like uh pastor sarah uh uh jakes um a lot of the churches that you still feel that baptist feel you know in the church but decided to go non-denominational so that women can have roles, you know, within the church and be called to be ministers. So that's this good old fashioned misogyny or is that just the way the church is built? Well, it's good old fashioned misogyny coming from First Timothy 2.12 that says, I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man.

Rather, she is to remain quiet for adam was formed first then eve and adam was not deceived but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor does that count for mamas and sons too what the hell jesus what logic is that well it is that's that's why the the bible the studies of the bible people can take comparative religion to see you know the context behind it that's been a debate for a very long time in the baptist church i remember that growing up as a little girl where women you know really wanted to be in the in the ministry and they just could not so all right well that is front page news thank you tez we'll see in a couple of minutes absolutely all right get it off your

chest 800-585-1051 if you need to vent vent, hit us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club on BET. The Breakfast Club. Ray, Ray, Ray. Yo, Charlemagne. Izzy, what up? Are we live? This is your time to get it off your chest.

to elaborate on that. The kids, the four kids, it was the 40 days. That was so... I'm in here with a tear. I read about the article, but when I heard you guys This morning It was like

Oh my God That was nothing but God That was all God All God That was nothing but God Shay you have kids? Because I have four kids Yes I was about to

I have four kids myself Close to those ages I have two toddlers One and two And I couldn't imagine My oldest trying to Look after them

And make sure they eat the right thing. Make sure they don't touch and put the wrong things in their mouth. Yes. Let alone change a diaper. Oh, my God. That's what I'm saying. Four kids. We didn't even though we do lean on the older kid a lot.

I got a 14 year old. Even though we do lean on her. I couldn't imagine that type of person. Not 40 days. For that many days, though. But you got to find shelter. You got to fool them. Right.

Change Pampers and all that. Oh, my God. There is no Pampers. They're trying to look out for yourself at the same time. Yes. And it says wild animals and jaguars and stuff like that. You know what I was thinking? I was thinking, too, though, you know, we are one with the world, right?

We are one with nature. I wonder if, you know, those 40 days and 40 nights, I wonder if they felt, you know, more at peace there than they would, you know, in regular society. I don't know. That's something, man. Especially being a day indigenous people. We're all indigenous people.

We're indigenous to the land, you know what I mean? I'm just thinking, like, if a thunder's too loud, my kids are scared. So can you imagine being in the way for, what? Jesus Christ. It was not my God. But, you know, when they? What? Jesus Christ. But you know, when they are from the area, so you,

you know, so of course they are used to, they're used to a lot of things that our kids are not even, ain't even feeling. And by the way, that was nothing to God. I'm so glad that they came out on top and nothing was wrong. And we might be projecting on them kids.

We don't know what kind of covering God had over them. They might've felt a different, they might've felt at peace. Yeah. For all we know. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. God might have just been giving them direction the whole time. You see the little boy or the little girl, I don't know if it was a boy or a girl,

All right, thank you, man. All right, bro. Gina, good morning. Get it off your chest. Good morning. I just wanted to chime in on the whole female minister

podcast that y'all was talking about. I am currently an ordained minister and I'm a military chaplain. And I think it's ridiculous that people are still holding on to old, outdated beliefs that aren't helping progress the church at all. Like the more they refuse and the more they fight against women being pastors, the more people are not going to want to continue into organized religion. They're going to continue to do what they're doing now.

And it's not going to help, especially if they're trying to build a church when they're also hindering it at the same time i wonder do we still need organized religion though because i mean i like i think that more people are are spiritual more than uh religious nowadays and i think that if we if we have places of worship where we just choose to gather and hear a good word it don't have to be under the guise of organized religion like i love bishop td jakes i love sarah jake roberts i love tuning into the potter house you know i mean but i don't consider myself you know a part of any organized religion and i think yeah organized religion for some is what they prefer because of the structure and some some people just like that but then on the other hand for like a lot of the newer generation that's coming around yeah

struggle structuralized religion is not the best option because that's just not for that generation now my grandmother's generation structuralized religion is something that's right up her alley a way as you know it was a lifestyle growing up but as you know my age my generation and thereafter they're more free they're more free will they're more vocal you know they're not afraid to stand up and say no this isn't right and some people just aren't willing to understand that and willing to understand that yeah women can preach and pastor and some can do it better than men it's just but it's okay there's nothing wrong with it

100 and you know what else is crazy too man like the older you get you just start to see so many contradictions in the bible right you know i mean and there's just so many things in the bible that just don't naturally agree with with your spirit it's like you just can read it and be like that's not right yeah you know well get it off your chest 800-585-1051 if you need to vent hit us up when we come back boozy well he had to go to court in San Diego for that gun charge. But he got arrested. We'll tell you all about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. All right. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Boosie Badass.

Rumor has it. Rumor. Rumor has it. Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty. I'm gossiping. This is The Rumor Report. I mean, I guess we on The Breakfast Club. This is where the tea spills, right?

Yes. On The Breakfast Club. Now, Boosie was in San Diego. He had a court case about a gun charge he got back in May. Well, as he was there, the state wound up dropping the charges. The case was dismissed. But when he walked outside, they said federal agents arrested him right as he walked out of the court.

Yikes. Now, they're not saying why. They're not giving any information at all. They just know he was picked up yesterday and Boosie left a message on his social media. He said, I want to take this time to apologize to my kids. I'm sorry and I love y'all forever. Yeah, I don't know what Boosie did but I know when the feds grab you for whatever

reason, it's not a good thing. Ever. And I feel like somebody in the feds wants to test Boosie and see if he snitches. I feel like someone in the feds has been watching his Vlad TV interviews, watching him on social media and now they're going to test him to see if they can break him because they didn't give him no bond right no no bond as yet we haven't really heard much information as yet so what's the charge nobody knows they haven't said anything the state dropped the gun charge

and then the feds picked the gun charge up i don't like i'm they're not saying anything they're just saying the state dropped the gun charge this charges were dismissed and he was just walking out and the feds picked him up and feds picked him up they're not saying the state dropped the gun charges. The charges were dismissed. And he was just walking out and the feds picked him up. And the feds picked him up. They're not saying what it was for. Interesting. No line. No information online. Now, Gunna announces his first project since jail.

It's called A Gift and a Curse. And it's coming out this Friday, June 16th. What is it? An album? A song? An album. Full album. He just going to drop on a Friday?

Just drop on a Friday. Gunna, I think you need a rollout. Yeah, Gunna needs, like, I, I think you need a rollout. Yeah, Gunna needs, like, I think Gunna need a little rollout, like Gunna need to sit down and have at least a conversation with somebody. Maybe, or, I mean, they're saying that his,

the last single was doing pretty good, so maybe just put it out and see what the fans like. Yeah, rollout, because it gives people too much time to say, you snitched, you did this, you did that, but just put it out

and let the music talk for itself. Well, the reality is most of the people online saying that he's a snitch, they're not even in the streets, no way. So they're going to listen to the music just to listen to the music. Facts. But that's why I still think he needs to have a proper rollout as an artist. We was just having this conversation about how, what is it, Billboard said no hip-hop album and no hip-hop single is number one,

has been number one this year. It's because of stuff like this. Like, what is Gunna just dropping an album tomorrow for? I think he's testing the water to see if people are effing with him or not. And I think he just wants

to speak to his music. He doesn't want to do interviews, I'm sure. So he's just probably, you know, doing his interviews and saying what he has to say through his music. Man, artists need to get back

to doing traditional things. But I understand why they did this with Gunna. I don't. Like, he definitely needs a rollout. He definitely needs a conversation with somebody. He's not going to talk.

He's not going to speak. That's not what the internet the internet says the internet that's all he's been doing is talking that's why he's on the prediction he's in and out shut up what are you talking about you're not paying attention he's not gonna do an interview oh okay that's what i mean okay i said he already did an interview that's it i'm not okay now uh sukihana nyk osiris well it seems like yesterday she deactivated her Twitter. This is after posting, I am hurt and I am scared to stand up for myself. She says, I drink to hide that I'm very sensitive. I feel things more than the average person.

I stopped drinking yesterday, but today I've been crying all day. I ask God to strengthen me and use me to help others in order to step in his words. I'm sorry. And then she says, I just want to go away for a while. Now, this comes after Y.K. Osiris was forcefully trying to kiss her. All right. Well, he apologized yesterday. He left a statement and said, I want to publicly offer my sincerest apologies to Sukihana and attempt to be playful i misread the moment and violated sukhiana's boundaries i understand the importance of consent and i am embarrassed by my behavior i take full responsibility and have had made multiple attempts to apologize i have the utmost admiration for sukhiana and was never my intention to disrespect her i wonder why why kay osiris doesn't know any better like i understand he's 24 years old and i know we didn't know any better when we was that age because we was

raised wrong and we thought we was in the nothing but a G thing video every day. But there's absolutely no reason for a man in 2023, I would think, to be making those kind of mistakes. That's why I threw the what if scenario out there yesterday that maybe they know each other and have a relationship because I'm like, there's no possible way someone would do that to a woman they don't have some history with. But clearly, my hypothetical wasn't accurate so it was off yeah so we're gonna need a yk osiris to come to the front of the congregation this morning yeah we gotta have a word with the young man yeah a longer clip was released yesterday with them uh going back and forth but you know if sukiana says no it's no regardless doesn't matter how much we're flirting how much we're going back and forth if she says no it's it's no now meek mill jumped in and said uh don't do this to him please he a good kid just slap him up and

he gotta let you uh i guess have something we don't need our young boys tore down for mistaking this hypersexual era i support sookie hold that ish down on some street ish i understand what meek's saying but you still gotta uh you know you gotta still gotta show the young man the error in his ways correct you know you still gotta show the young man the error in his ways correct you know what I mean I think that's all

people are trying to do like they're just trying to show him the error in his ways because they don't want this to happen to Sukiana or anybody else or him to do it again

or think he can get away with it so he has to fry not fry not fry god damn what the hell when I mean fry

that's what Meek is saying you know and when I don't mean fry like cancel him but we need to have these conversations he cannot just walk away without having a conversation What the hell? When I mean fry, that's what Mika's saying. No, and when I don't mean fry, like cancel him, but we need to have these conversations. He cannot just walk away without having a conversation.

Yes, you got to be able to. And he did the honorable thing. He did say he apologized. He did it early. He did it fast, but we still need to have these conversations to make sure women are protected

and people don't go through this again. That's what I meant by fry. You know what's so interesting? Back in the day, right, when we were that age and we had all of these images, whether it was, like I said, the nothing but a g thing videos or the the the freakness whatever it was that we used to see that used to uh you know push this kind of behavior we had ogs around

us telling us it was wrong too yeah we just weren't listening when this when to see dolores tuckers and everybody was out here saying like yo that behavior is not right that behavior is wrong you know we were telling them shut the f up that's true you know so now we are those uh older people telling this generation that's not how you're supposed to see but the only difference is you know why k osiris he's a good he's a good kid right i've sat with him before i've spoke to him before i've been in clubs with him before i've only interviewed him so i don't know and uh the young man made a horrible mistake but like you said back in in the earlier days, there was no social media. So if you did make a mistake, the mistake was made.

Your hand was popped. You had that conversation. You were able to have some type of empathy. There is no empathy now because it keeps going around and around and around and around. Yeah, but we also had a lot of music videos that were teaching us that inappropriate behavior. And we didn't know it was inappropriate. That's right. We just thought it was normal. Yeah, but with that phone, there is no making a mistake

anymore. Not even that phone. With all the information that we've had over the years, you should know better. You should know not to move like that. Regardless, no matter what video is on, your parents teach you a certain way. You shouldn't be trying to look at a Snoop Dogg video or a Big Pimpin' video to realize. It's's true but we did emulate that kind of stuff come on some

people did i never did i never did i never slapped a chick on ass at freak nick or any of those things i never did because my parents raised me a certain way no regardless of what i seen on video or what i seen on certain things why you always molesting me in here why you always trying to smack my ass why you always trying to hug me from the back? Why do I have to have a don't play gay bill in this studio? Why do I have to set boundaries with you then? You never said no. Wow. Wow. I have. No, you have not.

Red cap. Wow. Wow. I'm all alone. Wow. See? Wow. Alright, well that is your rumor report. Y'all really think I'm Charlotte with the good boonky Charlotte with the good boonky That's what y'all think huh Alright when we come back

We got front page news Tezlin Figueroa is joining us Don't move it's the Breakfast Club Good morning The Breakfast Club Your mornings will never be the same What up y'all it's DJ Envy At special sneak previews across the country

Audiences are discovering the flash tonight see why people are calling it absolutely sensational the flash tonight only in theaters rated pg-13 may be inappropriate for children under 13 morning everybody it's DJ Envy Charlemagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get in some front page news Tessman Figaro's back with us. Good morning, Tess. Absolutely. Good morning, DJMV Charlemagne. Peace, Tess. Now let's talk about these drunk drivers having to pay

child support. I think I like this. I think you'll like this one. People convicted of intoxication manslaughter in Texas will now have to pay money to support the victim's children. Assigned into law by Governor Grant Abbott on June 2nd, the person convicted will essentially pay child support in the form of monthly payments

to fulfill the financial needs and resources of all of the surviving children until they turn 18 and graduate from high school. A version of the law was first introduced in Missouri after a woman lost her 30-year-old son to a junk driving incident and was left to care for his two children. Payments will begin a year after the person is convicted in their release from prison. And this particular law goes into effect September 1st, 2023. I like this.

I love it. I mean, the fact that a drunk driver takes away a parent, a mother, a father, and now that that child has to fend for himself. Yeah, they should have to pay child support, make sure that child is good, that family is good until they're 18. I'm not mad at that. Yeah, I love it. If prison's not scaring people, then hitting them in the pockets. But the only thing I would say about this is what about the people who don't have anything to lose, the people who don't have any money?

You know what I mean? The people who don't care. They're drinking because, you know, they already hit rock bottom. Right. You know? What about them? Yeah, I mean, they still gotta they still gotta pay somehow i mean they still should have to go to jail but when whatever they make they should go to that that

that family yeah well texas has some of the harshest uh drunk driving laws in the country uh so if that's not deterring them this is just one more additional thing you know to your point you know charlotte somebody's having a problem you know they're just having a problem but texas just want to point that out they do have some of the most harshest penalties uh in the country so they wanted to add this on to it as well yeah we got to do something to slow down drunk drivers i'm hearing more and more and more cases of people crashing people getting dui so it's getting which which makes no sense in 2023 when we are in the ride share era correct like how many uh highways and highways choices

yours commercials do we have to see i'm with you now let's talk about ai they're saying ai can help improve breast cancer risk predictions yeah a new study is showing yet another way that artificial intelligence is entering the medical field and potentially improving existing practices for predicting breast cancer risk the study found that AI algorithms outperformed the standard clinical risk model for predicting the five-year risk of breast cancer by providing the ability to extract hundreds of thousands of additional mammographic features. While some institutions are already using AI to help detect cancer on mammograms, these findings suggest AI can be a vital tool in helping a patient's future risk score, which takes seconds for AI to generate.

They said that this tool will be able to help personalize precision medicine on a national level, which is currently not available. So I wanted to pull this story because I know how you guys feel about AI. I know we talked before about, you know, what can it do in the medical field

and wanted to see, you know, what are your thoughts on this? I have no problem with AI if it can improve, you know, medical situations. I mean, I've had conversations with people before and they say that's the only benefit. They actually see the AI, the things that it'll probably be able to do in regards to science and medicine. Yeah, I'm with it. I don't have a problem with ai when it when it saves lives

when it when it helps uh the world something like this if it can improve breast cancer risk predictions things like that i don't have a problem with ai it's just when when they use other people's voices other people's thoughts when it takes jobs away from people that we can't do that's when i i have the problem initially again, there's pros and cons to it. I've looked at a lot of stories where AI is not getting it right in the medical field. I think we talked about it once before. We're trying to replace doctors or giving advice or those types of things. Mental health, talking to an AI computer and how is that,

making sure they give the right advice. So it's a slippery slope. Again, pros and cons and just continue to see how this ai continues to develop and doing your research yeah i mean i guess time i'll have to tell because i mean it's it's fairly new you know people say things like you know ai will help you know to make the health care system more efficient and less expensive but we'll see all right well that is front page news thank you tess oh can I give a quick shout out yes yesterday I went and talked to our comment caucus is what I like to call them on YouTube and

so it was great we had over maybe almost 1,500 people that joined me on the Breakfast Club YouTube channel and we talked about the news and you know went back and forth we had a really good time okay and make sure you subscribe to Tesla Figaro's podcast, The Scraped Shot, No Chase, the podcast on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network. All right. Now, when we come back, Terrence Crawford will be joining us. Of course, boxer.

He's fighting Errol Spence Jr. July 29th on Showtime. And we're going to kick it with him next. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club on VET. The Breakfast Club. Fight goes down July 29th. Yes. You think this is going to be your toughest fight?

I don't know. A lot of people ask me that every time I fight. I don't know until I get in the ring with them. How do you prepare for this fight? Do you prepare the same way, or is there any different preparation for this one than any other fight that you've had? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Just keep doing what I've been doing and everything else to play yourself out you gotta make some adjustments though this is this is Earl Spencer we talking about this is this ain't no just the guy that you have picked over I don't forget I got Earl I do got Earl Not because you not great I just think you know Styles make fights I think Earl got it Definitely You feel pressure

Going into this fight? Not at all Not at all This is my moment This is my time This is what I've been Waiting for And the world

Gonna see July 29th I always talk about You know Nowadays it feels like Everybody wants to be Undefeated right Does that put more Pressure on you Because I think Floyd Kinda did it with like everybody wants to be undefeated, right? Does that put more pressure on you?

Because I think Floyd kind of did it with his 50-0. But back then, you lose a fight, it was fine. I see you in a rematch, and it was okay. It wasn't cool. But now it seems like when you lose a fight now, everybody's like, oh, it's washed, it's over. I don't think I never felt any pressure. I put my O on the line numerous of times with whoever they put in front of me.

I called out the best fighters in each division that I've ever been in. Floyd have made it kind of hard for people to take a loss and keep going because so many people want to be like Floyd and so many people was attracted to Floyd and followed Floyd's career, and they felt as if you wasn't like Floyd, then you wasn't that guy. But people lose, people come back. Styles make fights, like he said, and things happen. I never thought that a loss can define a fighter in any way, shape, or form. Floyd's one of the best to ever do it, but why just look at Floyd? Why people don't look at Ali, you know, Lennox Lewis, all these great fighters who have lost,

Sugar Ray Leonard, like Tommy Hearns, they've all lost. Because times have changed, and social media have taken over. So when Tommy Hearns and Ali and all those great fighters that came before us, they didn't have to deal with the politics. They didn't have to deal with social media slandering them and doing this and doing that to impress people. So it's kind of different. You feel like you don't get the respect that you deserve when it comes to a lot of these fights? Like even with Charlemagne saying he thinks arrows are going to beat you.

Do you feel like you're the underdog in a lot of this? It's just boxing. Like, it's just boxing at the end of the day. Don't back down now. I'm not. I got Errol. You're going to lose. You're definitely going to lose.

But do you feel like you don't get the respect that you deserve? Always. Always. Why is that? But how great I am. I look at all the great fighters that came before me. None of them got their respect until a they lost or they retired nobody gave Floyd his respect until he retired then they realized how

great he was a lot of people didn't give Ali his respect a lot of people didn't give Roy Jones his respect until they lost or they retired why the lost part i don't know because i guess when one has lost or took in defeat to another great fighter they feel as if this fighter is not invincible so they can feel as if he's on a level now oh well we brought him down to earth now we can laugh at him now we can praise him for all the good things that he done oh i guess yeah earl said your record was inflated what is that word inflated me well listen he can say all those type of things but when you look at who i fought and who he fought and you look at what i've done to him you know it's no's no comparison. Did Udis, I think I pronounced his name right,

did he beat you in amateurs? Your Guinness Udis? Udis, yeah, yeah. He beat me in the amateurs. And then Earl stopped him in the 10th round when they fought. So Udis said there's no way you can beat Earl if Earl fights you the way he fought him.

So does it matter if he beat someone who defeated you? Never. Listen, you talking about a fight that happened when i was 18 years old i was a little kid i was a little boy you know that same little boy is no way shape form fashion the same little boy you know i mean the grown man that i am today when i fought ugas had like 40 fights. Ugas probably had hundreds coming from Cuba and, you know,

they fighting all the national, I mean, international tournaments, national tournaments, all that, you know. So he had more experience at the time. So I wouldn't base him beating me at 18

on a professional fight. We don't have no headgear on. We're fighting with smaller gloves. We're fighting longer rounds, longer minutes in the rounds. So it's a lot of things that goes into fighting an amateur fight and fighting a professional fight. So a lot of people say, oh, well, uges and this and that well a lot of people lost to a lot of people in the amateurs and look what happened in a professional ranking a lot of people can say oh well terrence you lost to this guy you lost to that guy okay well all the guys that i

lost to in the amateurs compared a career and professional to my career that's real so what did you learn from those losses that you were able to take in your professional career that's kept you undefeated? Well, a lot of things. I learned how to cope with certain styles. I learned how to capitalize on the things that I was doing wrong. So you just go back to the drawing board and fix the problem that you had that led you to get the loss.

You got to learn from it and i felt like i learned from all my losses i got stronger i got wiser i got more experience that led me to be the person that i am today in a professional ranking did you watch this fight the fight between spence and uh yugas of course and what'd you think about it was a good fight arrow did good ugas did good and uh it was a good fight now that fight was what 2021 i thought it was last year was it maybe it was 21 now he hasn't fought in over a year so does that give you the advantage or disadvantage what's your thoughts on that i don't even look at that like that you know uh he came off a longer layoff prior to that been in a car accident and he came back

and he looked strong he looked good so i'm not banking on him not being in the ring for him to come rusty or anything he's a professional you know how to fight so come fight now he'll be ready just like i will all right when we come back we got more with terence crawford his fight where errol spence goes down down July 29th on Showtime So don't move it's The Breakfast Club Good morning everybody it's DJ Envy Charlamagne's guy we are The Breakfast Club We're still kicking it with boxer Terrence Crawford

He's fighting Errol Spence July 29th on Showtime Charlamagne Is it better to be an independent promoter or to be assigned to one of these Companies Well in my situation it's better for me to be an independent promoter or to be assigned to one of these companies? Well, in my situation, it's better for me to be independent. I get to control my own destiny. I get to control my own faith.

And the rest is uphill for me now. I don't understand why the promoters don't want to make the best fights. Like, this is the fight we all want to see. This is the fight that's going to make the money. So what kept them from just making this fight? Well, politics. is the this is the fight we all want to see this the fight that's gonna make the money so what kept them from just making this fight well politics you got you got two sides that that's powerhouses and you and neither side want to give in to the other side business wise is is better for me to do business in-house than outsource and have to share it's kind of like a greed thing and how draining

is is it doing all these interviews and press things when you got a fight coming up and you got a train how draining is that because you got to fly and and go here and i and i even know arrow was supposed to come up here this morning but you know his flight was delayed how draining is that physically and mentally for you well it's part of it's part of the game. As long as I get up early, I got to get up earlier, work out, come here, do this, do my other interviews and hit the road, get back to training. Training never stops. We just got to alter it a little bit. Do you have a rematch clause in the contract?

Yeah. I mean, are you going to exercise it? Who? No. Ain't no need. Ain't no need. Ain he try to be slick but no i know i feel like this is gonna be one of those moments in time where y'all do fight more than once i don't know if it's gonna be a trilogy but definitely at least twice i think so could be never know maybe something dramatic happened in the first fight where he don't he don't want over

your man if that happens let's say you win decisively right let's say it happens would you retire i don't know i don't think there's a need for me to retire right now when i want to fight jamel charlo yeah why'd you say wait why would you say retire i mean because this is the fight like you know this is the fight this is the fight that whoever wins this is probably going to be in the number one pound for pound in the sport, I would think, right? Probably. Yeah. It will be.

Will be, yeah. Will be. Like, you want Charlo, so I guess that makes sense. Have you seen the fight over the weekend when Mayweather got it? What was your thoughts on that fight? I didn't actually see the whole fight, but I seen highlights of the fight and the incident. It was crazy.

You look at Mayweather and be like, damn, at his age, he still got it? Oh, definitely. He's still moving and sliding. And even when he was being attacked in that ring, he still kept his composure. It still sucked on me. Man, that right hand made Gotti change the subject. He was looking for somebody to step in the middle. But it's cool, though, man.

It's all for entertainment. And I don't know what led that incident to happen. But, you know, it happened. And it's over with now. Do you seek advice from guys like Mayweather? Because, you know, he was an independent promoter, and you talked to him? Or just about that and boxing and other things? No, when me and Mayweather talk, it's more like, how you doing?

How's the family? How's everything going? How you feeling? Good. Stay focused. Stuff like that, you know. I look up to Mayweatherather he's been one of my favorite fighters since i can remember him and rory jones jr yeah like i admire his work ethic and everything

that he's done in the sport what boxer gives you the best advice what boxer give me the best advice far on just in general box man a lot of boxers. I can say my coach. I can say my brothers. I can say my friends. I take a lot from a lot of people. Because you can learn something from everybody. Not just people that you think is on a higher platform or on a bigger stage than you. If I can seek advice from anybody i'll take it i always wonder when

when fighters get in the ring do they do they take uh past fights with them or do you just whatever happened in the old fights you just leave them there like is every fight a new thing for me yeah every fight is a new new thing and that's how i try to go in training camp with a clear head my coaches they train me to the best of my ability and make sure that if we had any mishaps or mess-ups in a previous fight that we capitalize on that and we fix the problem that's pretty much how we go into camp I always wanted to know when when a boxer picks a fight right you know any any good boxers they're gonna analyze your tape analyze every fight that you do and watch you you know because we all have you know we're a habit right you have a habit of doing certain things do you how much do

you change to make sure that they don't study that habit well my thing is i'm so versatile and elusive that i can capitalize on anything my opponent's ever done in the ring. And I think that's why I rate myself so high, higher than other fighters. Because you can fix one problem, but the more the fight goes, I'm experienced enough to recognize another problem. I think that's why I rate myself high as I do. Who was your toughest opponent that you've had so far? That dude from Lithuania?

I can't pronounce his name. Kavalaskis. Whatever. The one they say might have knocked you down. I don't know if he was a flip. I would say the hardest fight in my career, it would have to be between Igas and Gamboaa wow gamboa feet was just so fast and he was and he was so small to where he was darting in and darting out and he was hitting me and making me

miss just just by an inch it was kind of like i had to i had to make certain adjustments and he was making adjustments and i was making adjustments and it was making adjustments. And it was just like it was a chess match, but it was a fast chess match. And he was getting better at me because he was more experienced. But at the same time, he was more explosive. So I just had to, you know, figure figure out the puzzle a little longer. What stops you from being frustrated in that ring? Because most people, you know, watching that fight would probably been frustrated and probably would have you know left the hand down left the chin available so what what makes you not get frustrated and calm down and relax you because you see it all the time when

you look at boxers in the ring they're not listening to the coach you could tell that their mind is on something else your demeanor never changes it never changes at all just like right now in this interview it don't it don't change no's just, you know, I think, like I said, the experience. I've seen it all. I've been in the ring with it all. I know what to do, and I know what I have to do. So when I get in those tough moments and those tough times and those tough rounds, I know keep doing what you're doing.

It all playing out. You know, you just got to stay true to yourself. Fight your fight. If one thing ain't working, you got to resort to something else. Try something else. You can't just got to stay true to yourself fight your fight if one thing ain't working you got to resort to something else try something else you can't just stick to the same thing if it ain't working then try something else right you got 12 rounds to do it if you don't then you'll be banging your head on the on the table like why didn't i do this why didn't i try this you're already getting hit i was gonna try to do something different but if you had if you have a whole game

plan that you worked on through training camp do you just but if you had if you have a whole game plan that you worked on through training camp do you just abandon that you can't just have one game plan gotta have multiple you know what happened if that one game plan don't work then what you're gonna do you're gonna be stuck in that one mode trying to do the same thing that ain't been working for the last 10 rounds. Then you're going to be desperate, banking on a knockout, swinging for the fences, and that's how people get hurt. All right, when we come back, we got more with Terrence Crawford, his fight with Errol Spence goes down July 29th on Showtime. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with boxer Terrence Crawford. He's fighting Errol Spence, July 29th on Showtime. Charlamagne? When you say you fixed your problems, what problems did you fix after the game in Boa Fett? I don't know. Oh, you can't, okay.

I ain't giving you too much. What about dude from Lithuania? Do you feel like that was a knockdown? No, I don't. I feel as if he pushed me. As you can see, as soon as the ref said fight, I stepped right to him. He's very strong. Very strong, explosive, good fighter, technical. That's a fight that you could say I wasn't listening to my coaches and my corner. I was more emotional in that fight because I felt as if I had something to prove. I went in there looking for the knockout.

I didn't want to box. I didn't want to use my skills. I just wanted to, you know, fight. That's what happens when you go in there and fight the wrong fight. What's going to stop you from doing that this time? You can't do that again. Because I know you want to prove yourself. I know you want to knock Errol out.

You can't. He's big. He's naturally bigger than you. He's strong. He's the big guy. He's the big bad wolf. I didn't hurt at all. He's strong.

He's this. He's that. He's this. He's that. So can he get hurt? Yeah, he's a man. He's a human. Okay.

Man. So what's going to stop him from banging with me? I'm a coach or in your corner but i wouldn't ask i wouldn't suggest you bang with him why i think i think he's trying to say he's not as powerful what you're trying to say what you're trying to say what you're trying to say you're trying to say he's not as powerful he's as strong as her what are you saying clearly let's be clear terence profit is amazing we know that what he does what you say what you're saying. Let's be clear. Terrence Crawford is amazing. We know that. What he does. What you're saying. What I'm saying is, why do you view that?

And how do you know? I don't know. What makes you think that? Probably the size. The size? Yeah. I don't know if you can hurt him, is what I'm saying. I've seen you hurt people before.

I don't know if you can hurt somebody his size. Did he get hurt his last fight? Yes. Do you think I hit harder than his last opponent? Yes. Okay. Case closed. Yeah. But you got to get to him, though. So you think I hit harder than his last opponent? Yes. Okay, case closed. Yeah. But you got to get to him, though.

So you're saying this man can't get to him? Is that what you're saying? I'm just saying you got to get to him. You got to get in there to do it. Okay. Well, the getting in there is the get between the ropes, right? And we in there, right? It's going to be a great fight.

So when you speak to people like that, what stops you from saying, you're not getting emotion, be like, you know what, try something. Because obviously there's a lot of people like Charlamagne that feels like... That's not a... No, don't act like...

Let's not act like he's an underdog in this fight. He is kind of an underdog. Not really. The way you're talking. No. I think it's about... People think it could go either way.

My man Red is a great boxing guy. He says you win, no problem. My barber says you a great boxing guy. He says you win no problem. My barber says you win no problem. These are the debates I've been having since the fights been announced. But Shogun ain't no one feel that way. What is it with Suwai? Listen, listen, that's his opinion. You know, when people have an opinion, it's like,

asshole, everybody got one. That is true. That is absolutely true. That is true. Have you thought about how you would deal with a loss In case it does happen? No I don't

I don't think about Things like that You know My mind is just Clear right now Things happen They happen You know

But We prepare For the victory That's it Ain't no You gonna lose Nah We don't think What's wrong with you? How you gonna lose nah we don't think what's wrong with you

how you gonna ask have you prepared for a loss if you lose what kind of that's the same question that you kind of asked with having the zero record like you know

some people lose some people don't so if you do lose have you thought about how you prepare for that nah we don't we don't prepare for that now for a young boxer

out there or somebody that doesn't know what is your daily routine and training? What does that deal with? Because most people just see the finished product, right? They see your boxing and don't know how much training it actually takes. So what does a day-by-day with Terrence Crawford look like?

Work. Work, work, work, work, work. What time do you get up usually? It depends. Sometimes we get up at 5. Sometimes we get up at 6. You run, you ride bikes, you go straight to the gym, you box up usually? It depends. Sometimes we get up at 5. Sometimes we get up at 6. You run, you ride bikes, you go straight to the gym, you box. We do it all. We do it all.

It depends on the day. It depends on how my body feeling. It depends on the weather. It depends on a lot of things that I can't control. So as long as we're getting the work done, that's all that matters. Another question most people ask is when it comes to having sex before the fight. Oh, my God. How long do you abstain from having sex?

Everybody keep asking that. Because people always want to know that. Man. And it ain't no women asking you that. You ever think that's crazy, right? Right. Exactly. Don't turn this on me.

Damn. Hey, listen, man. I don't know about other people, but it relaxes me. That's something that I've been doing my whole career. So you ain't abstaining. It is what it is. It is what it is. Me personally, I know it's a myth, you know, but I wouldn't tell anybody else to go out there and try to be like Terrence Crawford because they heard Terrence Crawford say, oh, man, you can have sex and it don't do nothing to you. Just saying for me, it never affected me. Regardless of how this fight goes,

would you ever give somebody like Boots a shot in the ring? A young boy like Geronimo? Listen, listen, I'm open for all of them. Like I said, I never turned down a fight in my whole career. Never ducked, dodged, walked away,

and ran from nobody. Every person that the media have put and said Terrence you need to fight him or Terrence he's chasing you I fought him if you can go back to when I fought Derry Jean when he was talking crazy to me and Hank Lundy when everybody was saying oh you need to fight Hank you need to do do this. You need to do that. I didn't fight them all. What would be the benefit of an OG like you giving somebody like a boot to shot? Just to satisfy the fans. That's

it. Because he's an up and comer. He doesn't have anything to offer. Nothing at all. But it would just be something for you guys. Just an exciting fight. Would you ever fight Yugus again in the pros just to do it? For what? What would I be getting out of that?

Right now, at this stage in my career, I'm looking for things that benefit. When I fought Ugas, he was undefeated. He was top contender, Olympian. He had all the accolades. After I beat him, everybody was slandering him. Oh, he green machine machine he did see that he fight a guy that nobody knows just because you didn't know him that don't mean that he wasn't a good fighter just because you don't know him that doesn't mean that you know he deserved to be where he was because he was my mandatory just like when i just fought avanesian he was ranked number six in the division but

everybody was mad that i took that fight because things wasn't right with the aerospence and uh my negotiation so people was mad can't get mad things didn't happen for a reason. But now we here. Everybody got the fight that they wanted. And July 29th, we're going to go out there and put on a show. Word. Earl, I think it was against you. He did get hurt a little bit,

but he still stopped him in the 10th round. So you can still hurt him. He still gets stopped. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I look just saying. I'm just saying. I look forward. I can't wait to see it, though. You going to be there? No, I'm not going to be there.

Come on, man. You did all that talking years ago, and you ain't going to be there. Nope. I'm going to be watching it from home. I know how y'all guys from Omaha get down. I want to watch the fight in peace. I want to, you know. But we appreciate you for joining us.

When's the last time you hit a civilian? Man, shut up, man. You want to hit one right now? Nah, nah, we don't do that. We don't do that. Why are you doing that, man? Just making sure. Out of all respect for Terrence Crawford,

we just talking boxing. It's just like picking a sporting event. It is, but I'm picking the winner. That's all. You said you're not sure if he can bang, how hard he can hit. I just wanted to prove it to you. No, I said it again.

There's probably 10 other people you can name I'll pick Bud over, but it's a different type of animal. That's all I'm saying. Do you rise to the level of your competition? Do I? Yeah. Have you watched my career?

Absolutely. That's your answer. Okay. One time's a little jab. Man, shut up, man. All right. It's Terrence Crawford, ladies and gentlemen. Don't forget to tune in and get your pay-per-view July 29th.

And we appreciate you for joining us. One last question. Do you think about stuff like pay-per-view numbers? You can't? I can't. That's out of our control yeah you know you got the people that have the um the websites to steal the fights and stuff like that and stuff that you can't control you just go in there and focus on things that you can't control because i feel like that's become a thing now like that's become a stat that people brag about now fighters they're like who cares

well i mean for your money your pockets of course yeah yeah well listen you know then the bigger the numbers the bigger you know you you become all right that's why floyd was money mayweather because of the numbers that he was producing that's why everybody wanted to fight him that's why every time he stepped foot in the ring, he demanded what he demanded because he knew what he was going to draw. So, yeah. Absolutely. All right.

Well, there you have it. It's Terrence Crowe. Good luck on your fight July 29th. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Samuel L. Jackson. Rumor has it. Rumor. Rumor has it. Call out a name or you gossiping or you chatty patty. I am gossiping. This is The Rumor Report.

Jackson was doing an interview on S and talks about the time his wife uh checked tupac i remember the one specific story my wife was on that film she was uh she was the chubby kid's mom and uh i guess pop was walking through a room a day and he was cussing somebody up my wife like grabbed him was like young man you see all these women sitting in here

give a damn who you are what you do how. They don't give a damn who you are, what you do, how much money you got. If you ain't moving accordingly, you're going to get snatched up. Period. Bottom line, point blank, period. But that's how it should be, right? That's how it should be. We need more of that. We definitely need more of that in the community.

I don't know what we got to do. I guess that's the way people learn. Yes. You know what I'm saying? Absolutely. It takes a village. 100%. I mean, that's how a lot of us were raised. It didn't matter if you did something wrong on the block or wherever you are.

Somebody screamed at you and then told your mama. You know what? Drop on a clue for Ms. Bravard. Ms. Nicole Bravard. I love Ms. Bravard. What does she do? She used to snatch me up all the time. She'd have snatched a little more.

Shut up. She actually sent me a message yesterday, and it was a meme that said, what did it say? It said, oh, shout out to everyone who had report cards growing up that read, talks too much, and she put sounds familiar. I love you, Ms. Brevard. All right. Now we got to talk Pat Sajak. He announced on Monday that he plans on retiring.

He was the host of the longest-running game show at the end of the 41st season. He's still going to stay on as a consultant, but it seems like Whoopi Goldberg reveals that she wants the job. Whoopi's sick of y'all at The View, huh? Legendary game show host Pat Sajak just announced that he's going to be retiring from Wheel of Fortune at the end of the next season. What's your reaction to the news and any ideas on who should replace him? Well, Pat's a legend. I mean, over 40 years and the price of a vowel has not gone up one penny.

Like nobody controlled inflation like Pat Sajak. Hopefully, Wheels got an envelope somewhere that says what to do when Pat passes in. Whoopi wants the job. I want that job. Now we figured it out. I think it would be lots of fun. Whoopi's sick of y'all. Whoopi's sick of every time she got something to say, y'all jump down her throat every few months. She's tired of it.

She's tired of it. She just wants something nice and easy like Wheel of Fortune. The rumor has it that they're talking to Ryan Seacrest for being a host of Wheel of Fortune. That makes sense. Or they could just do an AI Pat Sajak. I mean, Pat. What? If they did an AI Pat Sajak. I mean, Pat. What? If they did an AI Pat Sajak like on Cedar's World.

Remember Cedar's World back in the day on BT? I'm sure the technology is much better now. You wouldn't really know the difference. No, you can't. They could actually do that

with Alex Rebecca on Jeopardy too now if they wanted to. No. Because they're so cool. Like, they just, they kind of just blend in with everything that's going on

on those shows. No, you want a real host. All right. I would love if Whoopi did it. Me too, because I want her to get off the view. And I'm tired of y'all jumping down OG Whoopi Thot every time she got an opinion. Yeah. Well, Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan, you know, that's Michael Jordan's son.

They have a new podcast. It's called Separation Anxiety. And they talk about a lot on their first episode. They talk about when they first their first episode they talk about uh when they first met uh them trying to hide themselves from paparazzi as they were dating i feel like we were like hiding out and like trying to be low-key and then we didn't trust anyone ever we went we were like scared of like she's pulling out her camera ducking from flashes in the club and all this stuff you were at a position earlier when we first met that you

didn't want to take on all the smoke you know i was kind of skeptical because i kind of felt like why would you do this larsa why would you do this why would you date someone that you know just the families it's just a really crazy situation to be in yeah they also talk about how when she first met him she didn't save his name under his name she saved it under a fake name or she put air to the throne mark jay so who made the first move you did i beg to disagree i think you know again i was looking at her across the room but we were looking at each other for sure but is that the first move looking at each other no you know i don't think that's the first move but i definitely i'd say i made the first move you know it's funny i feel like a lot of people don't know that i could

never really put you under your name on my phone yeah that's i didn't find that out until we started dating neither so i had you under mark jacob yeah like i don't know why i had you under mark jacob but like that's what i had you on my phone because i didn't want anyone to know when you would call me i just wanted it to be very like well i feel like when we first started dating it was random like when we would talk it'd be like i was going on a trip or i'm coming to miami or you know somehow we're gonna bump into each other so you know that's that's kind of funny that uh i was stored under mark jacob why um why do we care what happened now people care about it of course that's not even are they not married though right not at dating you can't have a whole podcast and y'all just

dating you gotta be married to have a whole podcast and y'all just dating. You got to be married to have a relationship podcast. Well, you know, Larsa Pippen, of course, is Scottie Pippen's ex. She's 48 and Michael Jordan's son Marcus is 32. And they also talk about meeting the kids. Marcus meeting the kids. I don't care. What is the podcast about though?

Relationship stuff. They are not married. They are dating. I don't think that you should start a podcast if you're just dating they haven't even dated long enough to start a podcast i'm gonna tune in every week to listen to two people who've just been dating for a little while in regards to relationship advice you're listening now okay because you keep playing it my kids okay because i do feel like i don't normally bring guys around my kids i'm really selective on who i invite into my home who i who i have around my kids. But I feel like it was very natural and normal when you came around because they already knew you. They love

you. I think it's been great. I feel like my kids already knew you like when I would FaceTime with you or call you and I'd be like, oh, like, you know, just conversations we would have. So I think when they finally did get to meet you, it was not like, oh, my God, who's this guy? It was almost like, hey, Marcus. Yeah, no, for sure. I i don't know i just feel like there's a lot of common ground yeah uh which makes it easier for us all to you know be around each other so you're not gonna listen to the podcast i don't have a reason to but i will say is that like a specialty podcast is it something they're just doing for each other just to describe their relationship and their situation or just something long term where they're gonna be helping other couples because if that's the case then they need to

make a commitment to themselves i would think need to make a commitment to themselves. I would think. Before I make a commitment to that podcast, I would want them to make a commitment to themselves. Well, maybe they're just talking about their relationship and how they're doing. Like when they're getting it made, that's what they're talking about. They're talking about when he met their kids. I don't know.

This is a podcast. People have been talking about it. They want to know more about Larson Pippen and Michael Jordan's son's life. So people are tuning in. congratulations congratulations congratulations yo what's wrong with you you did that right yo you did that pretty good drop a bomb for charlotte man he practiced that oh i do that all the time randomly for no reason he practiced that i do not know i'll be walking around the house randomly. Congratulations! Don't write.

Who you giving your donkey to, man? Oh, man, for after the hour, we need YKL Cyrus to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him, please. All right, we'll get to that next Don't Move. Very teachable moment. I was donkey up the J. Damn, the hee-haw again. It's time for donkey up the J.

I ain't trying to be Donkey of the Day no more. They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making these people do these things. It's called Donkey of the Day, and it really caught me off guard. Damn, Charlamagne, who got the Donkey of the Day today? Well, Donkey of the Day for Thursday, June 15th goes to Y.K. Osiris. Now, if you don't know who Y.K. Osiris is, he's a singer singer songwriter from jacksonville florida and for the last 24 hours he has been black twitter's most wanted because he was seen on video trying to give another artist by the name of sukiana a kiss

without her consent uh the term they are using in various articles online are forcibly kissing oh that's the headline i've seen yk os. Cyrus accused of sexual assault after forcefully kissing Sukiyama at an event. Now, there's some of y'all listening to me who don't know who the hell either one of these people are. And that's fine. Just know why K.O. Cyrus is a young man. Sukiyama is a young woman. Now, there has been all types of reasoning going around. You know, stories like this get computers puting. All right. Most common sentiments I saw were folks saying this was sexual assault. And I saw a lot of people saying, hey hey she walks around calling herself Suki with the good coochie and she has a song about eating the man's groceries so this is the

energy she puts out so this is the energy she should expect to receive that second sentiment reminds me of when rappers who rap about various nefarious activities whether it's murder drug-selling whatever crime they choose to put to a beat when they get jammed up in ketchareco or if they get shot and killed or beat up first thing folks say is hey he bought it on himself okay because of the music he makes hell if you're a rapper who raps about constant drug use and then you die of an overdose people say well that's what he rapped about so folks are consistent when it comes to blaming people's misfortunes on their music and we should have a discussion about that but not not really today well maybe later we need to all be asking ourselves how come we know better but don't do

better that's the question i have for the young brother yk osiris how come you don't know any better all right sometimes i'd be naive because i gave him the benefit of the doubt yesterday because i thought to myself for him to be moving like that they must have a relationship because there's no possible way in 2023 with all we have learned about boundaries and what's consent and what's not consent and the whole me too movement I would think in 2023 uh no man would still be moving like that but here we are uh YK Osiris do you realize what you did is exactly why Kane pistol whipped Chauncey and Minister Society. You remember that, Envy? Mm-hmm.

Major plot line to the movie. And it was when Chauncey was making sexual advances toward Ronnie, and Ronnie clearly wasn't with it, so Cain pistol-whipped him. All right? The reason I'm putting that out there is because whether we realize it or not, scenes like that taught us what not to do. And if we did do those things, those were the kinds of consequences and repercussions that could happen. Now, even though we had those teachable moments, I'll be the first to tell you that we was raised wrong. OK, I mean, everything about our culture has been hypersexualized. I don't even have to get into what I mean when I say we was raised wrong, because if you was born in the 1900s, you know what the hell I'm talking about.

There is a reason, OK, your mommy and your grandma is sweating about this freak Nick documentary. All right. But at what point did those of us that know better teach better? OK, if you know better and you've done better it's your obligation to teach better so i am sitting here literally wondering did someone fail why k osiris or is he just a d head who knows better but has lapses of judgment like this i read his apology and he said i want to publicly offer my sincerest apology to sukiyama and attempt to be playful. I misread the moment and violated Sukiyama's boundaries. He also said, I understand the importance of consent and I am embarrassed by my behavior.

Clearly, that apology shows he knew better. But for whatever reason, he didn't do better in that moment. And that's what we have to prevent because we got to protect women. Right. But we also have to protect men. We got to protect uh women right but we also have to protect men right we got to protect black women but we also have to protect black men because black man what if sukiyana decides to press charges against you for sexual assault who's to tell us she can't do that now your dumb ass got a charge and for what because you misread the moment no black man we got to do better and i wonder about that misread the moment line it seems to me a lot of y'all are misreading

the moment when it comes to miss sukiyana and y'all blaming it on her music let's unpack that okay if a woman is walking around calling herself uh suki with the good coochie i understand why you would be curious about that good coochie that makes sense doesn't give you the right to make unwanted sexual advances to her and violate her boundaries but i understand the curiosity but another main reason i'm giving why kill cyrus donkey is because all y'all talking about sukiyana's music is the reason you know she receives this type of behavior because of the music she makes she should expect it hmm i've only heard one sukiyana song right and that song is called casamigos right envy correct don't get this right my brothers sukiyana a song where she's talking about eating a man's groceries. I'm not kink-shaming at all.

I had my groceries eaten. I'm just wondering, YK Osiris, why was you so ready to put your tongue in her mouth, knowing where her tongue has been? All of y'all out here talking about Sukiyana's music is why men do this to her. So y'all in a rush to either get your bunkies brunched on, or in the case of YK Osirisis in a rush to taste another man's ass. That's a lot of butts. Where is Jesus?

Where is he? Where is he? Where is he? We need him so bad right now. OK, we need a group therapy session for all of us because I'm just sick of us hurting each other. I don't want to see Sukiana or any other woman hurt. And I don't want to see YK Osiris hurt either. Yes, he should be held accountable.

If there is consequences to his actions, he earned them. But what do we have to do as a society? What do we have to teach as a culture? What do we have to learn to make sure things like this don't happen ever again? Because I would think brothers would know better by now, wouldn't they? Please give YK Osiris the biggest hee-haw. I'm just saying. Y'all keep blaming Sukiyana's music.

You know, y'all keep saying, you know, this is what she puts out. Okay. Like, I only know that one song. What are you saying, my brothers? All right. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I do. You want your hat? You bunk boonky eating what what what you want to take boonky on the tongue i'm

just trying to figure it out all right i don't get it it's all right well thank you for that donkey today this question what was his name who's your name you said you like getting your butt yeah man shut up i done told you cut that out now that's what what you said. I didn't say nothing about... Never mind. His name was Rashawn Casey. Since y'all must know. Since y'all must know, you want to do a rumor report? His name was Rashawn Casey. That's why we've been so close the last 13 years.

All right? He was eating this ass. He was eating this ass. Okay? You go too far. Yes, I do. I'm burning the whole carter down. I see you.

All right? Yeah. I don't want to play. Yeah, that's our song, right, Envy? I'm taking my toys. That's our song. I have a toy box. I'm going home. Okay, that's what we're going to dance to at our wedding. I'll burn the whole carter down. I'll see you. All right? Yeah. I don't want to play. Yeah, that's our song, right, Envy? I'm taking my toys. That's our song. I have a toy box. I'm going home.

Okay, that's what we're going to dance to it all week. I'm not playing anymore. That's going to be our first song. I'm leaving the playground. Okay? All right. Shout out to BET. We'll see you tomorrow.

I don't want to play with you no more. BET, peace. That's right. What's wrong with you, man? Nothing wrong with me. I am perfectly fine. Like my father's son told right now. I'm going to show you how fine I am.

All right. When we come back, the cast of The Blackening will be joining us of course it's a new film it's a horror slash comedy really funny and we'll talk to the cast which is uh yvonne rg cinqua walls jay farrow grace myers antoinette robertson and duane perkins so don't move it's the breakfast Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Be the same. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club, and we got some special guests joining us. I think this is the most guests we've ever had.

Yeah, this is the first time I've seen an actual cast cast. When they say cast, it's like one person, two people. The cast cast. It's the whole cast. The cast of Blackening is in the building. Good morning, guys. Good morning. How y'all feeling?

Good. You got to name names individually, man. Okay. Well, let's start off. Yvonne Orji. What's good? We're going to take attendance. Jay Barrow.

Grace Byers. Antoinette Robinson and Dwayne Perkins. All right. Talk to us about the Blackening, man. What is the Blackening? Dwayne. Oh, it is a movie about a group of friends that go to a cabin for a Juneteenth celebration. And they find themselves stalked by a psycho killer.

And they have to, you know, not die. The black person always dies in the beginning. Who died in the beginning? Oh, man. No, we can't. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking.

I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. Now, is this the type'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. I'm just joking. Now, is this the type of movie that you guys would actually be a part of? Like, go to a cabin in a white area and feel like that at all? That's so problematic.

Like, are we going to a cabin in a white area without backup? What? It's already problematic. That's a horror film in real life. I love that the movie called it out, though, because it's just like, why are we here? And who did this? Because that's how most scary movies start. It's like, okay, we just stumbled upon this cabin in the woods.

And it's like, somebody calls them out and is like, yo, whose idea was this? A cabin in the woods, really? But the twist of the movie is that the killers, like whoever is the blackest, is going to get knocked off. So for people that don't know, you guys have to play a game. Yeah. Now what is this game about? The game is called The Blackening and it is a game

that's forcing these friends to determine who's the blackest to see who dies first. Because you know that's the trope. Black trivia. Black culture. Black trauma trivia.

Okay Antoinette what does that mean? What is what? That H-O-V over there. We're going to play black trivia. Okay, Antoinette, what does that mean? What is what? That H-O-V over there. We're going to play black trivia. Yeah. I love that you're like, you're going to say it.

You're going to say it. What does that mean? If Young Metro don't trust, what might future do? If Young Metro don't trust you. If Young Metro don't trust you. No. I guess I do

What's the answer to that? I'll shoot you What years did Cash Money Records tell us they were taking over? Cash Money 2000 Okay, alright You're dead I'm not

I'm from the Cammy I will fail you. According to your mama, she said she'll give you what if you start crying? Something to cry about. There you go. You know, love. That's so fair.

That's not my mom. This is a tough one. How many fights did the fresh prince get into before his mom got scared? One little fight. One tiny one. One little fight. One tiny one. One little fight. You know the person who jumps in first is the person who's like, I got to get this answer right.

I don't know what's going on. I've watched Fresh Prince so many times that I'm like, I've listened. I know the original song. Yeah, what's that? The original song. You know the original song where he goes beyond like, one little fight. My mom got scared. I was watching and relaxing and chilling and whatever.

No, no, go ahead. I said, no. Do it. Do it. I said, I know it. I didn't say I remembered it. You're already alive whatever. No, no, go ahead. I said, no. Do it. I know it. I just remembered it. You're already alive. Now, you're one of the writers of the movie, right? Yes.

So what made you want to put this movie out June 18th and having it be about the June 19th celebration? It comes out June 16th. I should say June 16th. It comes out the 16th. Yeah. June 18th celebration, I should say. From the sketch to the feature, we just really wanted to put it in a space that was about blackness and freedom. And they're trying not to die, and they're fighting for the freedom. And what better time to do it than on Juneteenth?

But yeah, no, we were just trying to pack it with as much things from the culture as possible. And hopefully it becomes like a Juneteenth movie. pack it with as much things from the culture as possible. And hopefully it becomes like a Juneteenth movie. It's interesting that it's through the lens of comedy and horror because I feel like that is the black experience in America. Yeah, like I can't go through a trauma without cracking a joke. That's just what it's

going to be. Levity is the antithesis to fear. And also that's the only way black people can really see a horror film. I've told people they're like, I don't know that I'm going to see it. But it's a comedy as well.

Okay, I can laugh at it. It's a satire, guys. So me just going to be dying? Exactly. No, that's not 12 years of play. One thing this movie isn't, it's not black trauma porn. The world is used to ingesting that. It's fun.

It's an interactive experience. We celebrate black culture. Of course, there are instances where we're supposed to quantify our blackness, which we know is ludicrous. But we bring the conversations up. Like, okay, well, I can't say that you're not as black because you're lighter skinned or whatever the case may be watch your mouth or or case in point like gracie and i are both caribbean so it's like we have the conversations that we have behind closed doors

and in the group chat, but out loud with everybody in the world. And it's a pretty great experience. But you guys also talk about things that we all deal with, like being in the store and somebody following us around or the park ranger stopping somebody

because you're not supposed to be in this neighborhood. So I know writing that was part of a little freeing too, like this is the ish that happens all the time. Yeah, it was actually wild. Me and Tracy talk about it pretty often how we were surprised that they allowed us to keep it as black as it was because we were just like we're just gonna write what we want what makes us laugh and then by the final version we said damn they really kept a lot of niggas in speak to that though because like you know they don't even as much as they scream diversity and inclusion it's just like you know they don't want things to be too black.

Yeah, I would say that that is one of the privileges of doing it as an indie first, is that there was less cooks in the kitchen to tell us how to display blackness. And the people that were, who were white, they just gave us the freedom because they knew they didn't know what they were talking about. So you weren't nervous at all, because, I mean, there's a lot of n****s in it, but that's how we speak, right? They're like, n****, it's Junete they didn't know what they were talking about so you weren't nervous at all because i mean there's there's a lot of in it but that's how we speak right but it was never a fear like maybe we need to take some of those so they didn't they just let y'all do you yeah no i don't really move with that fear uh my whole life has been consuming media that was not made for me so i don't feel inclined to put my point of view through a funnel for people that are not of me. If you don't know, then figure it out, to be honest.

What pisses y'all off more? White executives that don't know what they talk about or black executives that don't know what they talk about? Culturally clueless black executives. They're culturally clueless. I think they are just part of a regime that doesn't give them the space to be as black as they may want to be because in order to keep their jobs they have to conform and i think a little bit more and that's why i'm not an executive you can see it by the conversation that you have behind like we all kind of permeate in the same world right so we we you have these conversations behind closed doors

you can instantly tell that someone is a little bit more contrived they might lean in but then they kind of look like yeah it's that man i'm really rocking with y'all there's a lot more of that and you can instantly tell like who's who in that space all right when we come back we got the cast of blackening so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj md charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we still kicking it with the cast of blackening charlamagne i think it's been such a lack of black uh horror comedy movies because i feel like like with the success of like scary movie with marlin like i feel like there would have been a lot more um to be honest i just think that um the people allowed to make the movies have just changed there's just not a lot of people pushing for that and if it is it's in a lens that is digestible for white people so you're not

necessarily given the space to create horror comedies and then i do think like get out was like a big moment and i and this industry runs on that people have already seen yeah so they're like that is what works that is what we want and that was not comedic that's very far from scary movie so i'm hoping that the black and dang kind of like creates another point in the like lexicon of horror comedy so that executives in the industry can see like what black people can do that's not just within scary movie or get out but yeah i just think these are unoriginal for each one of y'all what made y'all want to do this movie when y'all seen the script what was

like oh this is for me wow this is pandemic too yeah i mean well for me it was uh it's innovative man it's never been done before you've never seen so many uh black people represented uh this way like we could say we're not monoliths. It's time for people to have fun again, especially with the arduousness of the last few years we've been going through. It just seemed fun. It was like a slam dunk. I've worked with Tim before. I know how he works.

I was excited to work with this beautiful cast of folks. To me, it was just different. It just made sense. It's innovative. i want to hear that from everybody yeah a little play off of that as well too and and what you were saying as well like we've never really seen that before we've never really seen the horror comedy um aspect especially with an all-black cast and i think also too like this is my friend group you know what i mean and so to see yourself in that space and then i think too, it is our strength as black people

that we span the spectrum of the diaspora, right? And so when you could see that reflected in a film, I think that representation goes a long, long way. Tim's story is a big deal. This cast was a big deal. The script was amazing. Super funny, super smart. And so for me, it was like an easy, easy yes.

What about you, Yvonne? What attracted you to it? I would attract you to um I had watched the sketch and what's funny is before like literally the week before I don't know if you know this the week before um I got the call for the movie I had watched the sketch all over again because I was looking for the director to possibly direct my special and so I had been like in the world of this I was like yo this is funny. Someone should do something with this. Cut to, I got the script. I was like, yo,

this is for real happening. And so for me, one, it was hysterical. And then two, I appreciated the kind of breaking down the silly conversations of like what blackness really is, because it was that thing of like, even when President Obama came into office,

like he's not black enough. It's like, well, who has the patent on blackness? Like I need to find this person who can define what blackness is because and we've even had this conversation on the show it's like as a Nigerian American it's like well you don't know about the black experience I was like I know about a black experience I don't know about every black you know me so I I love putting myself in conversations whereby we can like look at these tropes or whatever these these conversations, and hit them on the head.

And then I got to play it, be funny, and then scream. I mean, I've said it so many times. I think for me, it always starts with story. It starts with who's involved. I think it was funny, it was intelligent, and it was on time. The opportunity to work with Tim Story, to me, he's one of the greatest filmmakers that we have. I grew up loving him. I grew up loving him as a filmmaker. So I was like, okay, yes, I want to work with Tim Story. To me, he's one of the greatest filmmakers that we have. I grew up loving him. I grew up loving him as a filmmaker.

So I was like, okay, yes, I want to work with Tim Story. And I follow filmmakers. And I was like, yes. I read the script several times. I became more familiar with Dwayne. And I remember I had questions about the script that I was like, well, who wrote this? Like, why did they say this instead? They're like, well, actually, Dwayne wrote that.

I was like, oh, okay. Like, he's informed, right? And then I was like, who's playing Dwayne? Because we had to play off each other. They're like, Dwayne's playing Dwayne. And I was like, oh, okay. Like, he's informed, right? And then I was like, who's playing Dwayne? Because we had to play off each other. They're like, Dwayne's playing Dwayne. I was like, oh, okay. That's why I named him Dwayne. And I just felt like it had the opportunity to be executed well. I always read things and I say, what are the legs?

So, for me, I'm grateful that we're sitting in this position now of coming out and distribution and Lionsgate is a part of it. But I would be lying if I didn't think that we were going to be here because I think when I when I read something it haunts me and I go oh I come back to it even if I'm like on the fence of a yes or a no and I go it's still on my mind it's something that I have to run towards and this script did that for me especially coming out of pandemic I had done resort to love we did resort to love together and it was like a totally different comedic thing right but we had a lot of color in it and this was just like even more infused and intelligent and smart so for me i was like okay this is something i haven't done yet so it's something i want to do and then all the

already knew who the cast was and to play with them i was like okay let's do it yeah for me uh i was obsessed with the script it was just so well written but like it's very rare that i read something that i see so many different hues of blackness there's so many different black women in this you see them we're all from different like backgrounds we speak differently we have different interests but we're a friend group the same thing with the men like i love that duane's character isn't just like the gay sidekick like none of us were just limited to being the best friend or the sidekick. Like we were fully fleshed out characters and we're showing blackness in its full form as opposed to seeing it diluted, which is what we usually see through the lens of whiteness.

And so I was like, this is so smart. It's so funny. And although I'm terrified of horror movies, I felt like if I didn't do it, I would regret it. So, yeah,

you wrote the whole script. Yeah, me and Tracy. And what I liked about is that i as like a queer black man as an actor just i've never been afforded the opportunity to like be a lead in something because things are very bad and so in in order to like kind of break out of the box i feel like hollywood tries to put black queer men in i had to write a whole movie uh and and i hope that like people see that i've been

like yeah do you see the lengths that i have to go to like for me to feel represented i have to be that for myself like that's cool, but also stop that. That's what we want, though, right? We just wish that there was green light more that stuff. Exactly. Also, I have to say, the movie is really good. We've been getting the feedback from people who've gone to the screening. It is the kind of movie you want to see at a black theater. Matter of fact, make the theater black because you're yelling at the screen.

When I watched Creed, I was like, nah, we got to go to crenshaw like i want to see this in crenshaw and so this is like i'm gonna tell you a funny story when i watched what was it um dream girls i i went to a black theater i don't know if they knew that um it was a musical because i'll never forget the one time that jennifer hudson started singing, somebody was like, hey, come on, man, if they start singing one more time, I'm just gonna... This is the kind of movie-going experience that you want, and you're like, oh, my God. So this is the movie theater experience

that you have to probably see it twice because somebody's gonna be yelling at the screen, talking back. Now, why they do that? Like, it is so... Interactive. It's an interactive movie-going experience. It ain't 3-D, but it is DD.

Does that scare you, being in the box office? Like having to come out in theaters, is that scary? No. I think that's what we all want. People are ready for it. And because, like Dwayne said earlier, I feel like it coming out Juneteenth weekend is going to create something that I'm hoping,

not unlike July 4th, becomes a box office weekend that all studios are fighting for. And because we are coming out and establishing that, I'm excited for that. Because I think it's going to set a whole precedent of like, okay, now Juneteenth is a weekend that everyone wants. And if you can own Juneteenth,

then it's like you did something right with your film. The blacks have actually been dominating. Yeah, yeah. Have you, like, between... Those are the block, big, big block. But these are the movies to me, big block, but, like, these are the movies to me that really tell the tale

of what black people can do. Yes, The Little Mermaid, Spider-Man, Transformers, We Coming Out This Week, and I was just like,

well, they better work. Yeah. I think the movies like this are the ones that get us more. Yeah, absolutely. Movies.

All that stuff you named, those are big block. They're supposed to do that. You know what I mean? Yeah. That's IP.. Movies. All that stuff you named, those are big blockers. They're supposed to do that. That's IP. But when you have like a brown face, like I saw Transformers and I was just like,

it's really good. And I was like, oh, it's because it has brown people. Don't they make a difference? It makes a difference. I'm invested in this story. I was like,

oh, and he got sickle cell? What? He's like, when was the last time you saw sickle cell? I was like, when? That's it. That's the point.

As like... When they use Sickle Cell as a tool. As somebody who got the trade. I was like, I feel seen. We didn't feel like that when Tyrese was in Transformers.

He was in Transformers? Why are you... What's the black in the cast of Black in the Ghost? Go check it out this weekend. And we appreciate you guys for joining us. Thank you. It's the Breakfast Club.

How are you going to report about all these people going to harass that young lady and then throw to Shaq going to harass that young lady?

And said, don't read the comments. Stuff like that will drive you crazy. Have a great day. Tell all your boyfriends I said hello. Well, Shaq, who is probably one of the, I would say, best rap NBA players, if you would have to pick one. Best rap NBA players? Best rapping NBA players of all time? I think Shaq is up there.

He got the best music by far. All right. Well, he also did a video there as well. Should write a book about every step on my way up the ladder. I came out the mud, it was a lovely chapter. I don't even show up at your fancy parties. If you see me hanging out, it's off the finger. Rap this.

Get Chuck the coach and first ship gonna be a freebie Might buy the L.A. Sparks, change the name to the GGs Drop on the Clues Bomb for Shaq Shaq be rapping, man He's always made the best music Shaq be rapping I mean, at one point I thought he was the best rapping NBA player of all time. I think Damian Lillard is definitely a better rapper, but Shaq has the best music.

Shaq got balls, though. Shaq be spitting. Yeah, but Damian Lillard can rap, rap. Flow delivery crazy. Yeah, Shaq be rapping, too, though. No, you ain't never heard Damian Lillard. I have. He played records up here on Damian Lillard before.

Damian Lillard can rap, rap. There you go. Shaq make better songs, but Damian can rap. Now, yesterday, Meek Mill. Hold on. Did you ever find a woman? No, she wasn't there. Oh.

She wasn't there. All right. Now, also, Meek Mill yesterday put this on Instagram and social media. I don't know why Meek put this up. Meek said, who think I fell off or don't really think I got it with rapping anymore? Oh, God. I'm for real. I need answers

and tell the truth i'm not taking it personal i need to hear how people think before i do what i do a social experiment why do you care what people on social media why do you why do you care what people on social media think why do people need validation from social media and by the way meek you can't get on social media and ask a question like that because nobody's there to give you serious answers not at all all they want to do is clown on social media that's it that's it out and that's why i said with me you know i mean it's one of those things if you put that out there this i would say probably 80 is gonna be bs and they're just gonna be attacking you because they can't you might as well have put wrong answers only at the end of that tweet you might as well have put that me yeah so meek is

working on some new music i definitely think we miss Meek out there, and I think we need some of those anthems and some of that music that Meek usually supplies, especially for the summertime.

Like, you could just decide if I want a rematch or not. The rematch clause. I think both of them got rematch clauses. Right, but if I beat the brakes off you, you might say I want a rematch or not. The rematch clause. I think both of them got rematch clauses. Right, but if I beat the brakes off you, you might say I want a rematch, but I can say I don't want a rematch, right? How does that work?
