Because I was Black Panther and my wife was Storm. Okay. All right. Well, let's get the show cracking.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Ed Sheeran will be joining us this morning. My guy. He's on tour, actually. The Mathematics Tour started. And he's got a new album coming, too. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed?
Starting point is 00:06:00 A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
Starting point is 00:06:16 I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.
Starting point is 00:06:32 I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even
Starting point is 00:07:19 deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection. it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's OK. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shankar, a cognitive scientist who studies human behavior. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how It was like a slow nightmare. You know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night I would dream that my face was quote-unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change.
Starting point is 00:09:34 You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture. That they're something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to solve the problem of having social success and fewer of the things that bring you social failure. Listen to A Slight Change of Plans on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. Hey there, my little creeps. It's your favorite ghost host, Teresa. And guess what? Haunting is back, dropping just in time for spooky season. Now, I know you've probably been wandering the mortal plane, wondering when I'd be back to fill your ears with deliciously unsettling stories. Well, wonder no more, because we've got a ghoulishly good lineup ready for you.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Let's just say things get a bit extra. We're talking spirits, demons, and the kind of supernatural chaos that'll make your spooky season complete. You know how much I love this time of year. It's the one time I'm actually on trend. So grab your pumpkin spice, dust off that Ouija board, just don't call me unless it's urgent, and tune in for new episodes every week. Remember, the veils are thin, the stories are spooky, and your favorite ghost host is back and badder than ever. Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So we're going to kick it with Ed Sheeran in a little bit,
Starting point is 00:11:01 and then we've got front page news, what are we talking about? Yes, student loan forgiveness applications are now formally open. All right. We'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Let's get in some front page news. The last night the Yankee game was postponed. But in Monday Night Football, the Broncos beat the Chargers. I'm sorry, the Chargers beat the Broncos 19-16. Why are they pulling the game? Rain. Yeah, it was rain. Rain delay.
Starting point is 00:11:29 It was a three-hour rain delay. People were upset because they went to the field. They went to the stadium anyway. And then they waited for three hours to say that the game was postponed. So people were there. Yeah, they were like, at 7 o'clock we'll give you an update on whether or not, what time it's going to happen or if it's going to happen. I guess they couldn't tell.
Starting point is 00:11:42 They were hoping that the rain would let up. But people were at that stadium three, four hours before they would tell them if it was canceled or postponed. So it's postponed today. Yeah. All right. And Joe Biden announced the formal launch of the federal application for Americans seeking student loan forgiveness. So you can now apply to get that student loan forgiveness. We'll tell you how to do that. He posted on Twitter, I recently announced my administration's plan to relieve up to $20,000 in student loan debt if you received a Pell Grant and up to $10,000 if you didn't. Today I'm announcing how working and middle class folks can apply for that relief.
Starting point is 00:12:18 And he said folks apply for student loan debt relief today. No forms, no special login. It's available in English and Spanish and on desktop and mobile. And it'll take you less than five minutes. So go to studentaid.gov. And then you go to the section on Student Loan Debt Relief and click Apply Now. So you just have to give your basic personal information, your name, social security number, date of birth, phone number, and email address.
Starting point is 00:12:41 They don't need documentation about your income, your student loans, or anything. Then you review the eligibility rules and confirm that you're a match. That means that you make less than $125,000 a year or that your household makes less than $250,000 a year. If you meet those eligibility rules, you click the box confirming everything you provided is true
Starting point is 00:12:59 and click submit. After that, it should take four to six weeks to process. Yeah, I got a friend that did it actually last night. And she said she got a reply already. And now she's waiting to possibly get it, you know, paid for. Same. I was watching MSNBC this weekend, and I heard our very own Nyla Simone. Drop on the clues box for Nyla Simone.
Starting point is 00:13:19 I heard her say that she was on the cross connection with Tiffany Cross. And she said she did it. And it took less than five minutes. All right. Now, Missouri police have allegedly dismissed claims about some abducted black women and then a woman escaped from a basement. This is in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. Timothy M. Hazard, 39 years old, was arrested on October 7th after a woman escaped his home. And now those police officers are getting criticism from some members of the community. They were accused of, like I said, dismissing those claims.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Until that happened, there was a 22-year-old woman who fled. She showed up at the front door of her neighbor's home. She had been held captive for a month in the basement. She was wearing lingerie, a metal collar with a padlock, and duct tape around her neck. According to the court documents, it was readily apparent that she had been held against her will for a significant period of time. Now, they have alleged that four girls have been killed and three went missing in the area, according to the newspaper, the Kansas City Defender. Now, a nonprofit media startup posted a video to TikTok alleging that a serial killer had
Starting point is 00:14:21 been targeting young black girls in the area. That video did go viral. And the Kansas City Police Department spokesperson, Donna Drake, said in a statement, there was no basis to support this rumor and said the reports are completely unfounded. The woman who escaped is black. And she told investigators it has that allegedly picked her up on Prospect Avenue in September, then kept her in a small room in a basement that he built and allegedly kept her restrained by her feet and ankles and whipped her repeatedly, according to the affidavit. She was only able to escape when he left to take his child to school.
Starting point is 00:14:52 And she was then treated at the hospital and released. Did those people not learn anything from Dahmer? And that is really, yes. You know what I'm, and that's exactly what I thought about when I read this story about how Jeffrey Dahmer, the neighbors, everybody in the community, there was a time when a victim did even escape and the police brought the victim back into the house. Even though the person was underage, he didn't have any
Starting point is 00:15:13 ID, he was clearly disoriented, but, you know, the black women in the neighborhood were like, look, there's something going on there. And they did not investigate those claims or do anything. Yeah, after watching Dahmer, I don't know how you could not listen to anyone alerting you to things like that. Like, go check the dude's fridge. Check his basement.
Starting point is 00:15:30 And people like him, you can't kill either. You gotta interrogate him thoroughly and see if he's connected to something larger. You know what I mean? See if there's like a ring or some type of trafficking going on. Alright, and by the way, after the woman escaped and searched for help, she told neighbors that
Starting point is 00:15:46 her friends didn't make it and that he killed them. Wow. All right. Well, that is... Did they lock the dude up? Well, yeah, they have him now. Oh, okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Well, that is your Front Page News. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

We told you about some disturbing things that he said online. We said, y'all need to send him some love. We'll tell you what he had to say to explain why he was feeling neglected.

Alright, let's get to the rumors. Charlamagne, before we get to the rumors, you ever did something like you were supposed to do something for your wife?
Starting point is 00:29:23 Or you were supposed to do something for your man and then whatever you were supposed to do you brought with you and forgot to do it and it's with you now and you just feel like an idiot? I don't understand what that means. I took a key and I was supposed to do something and I forgot to do it but I took the key to do it and I just never did it. I just talk like that all the time
Starting point is 00:29:39 about a lot of things. You say what? I forget to do everything. Let's get to the rumor. Let's talk Y.K. Osiris. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee. On The Breakfast Club. Well, yesterday we were talking
Starting point is 00:29:57 about Y.K. Osiris and a video that he posted during a recent Instagram Live where he was driving around and he just wasn't happy with his life. Here's what he said in that video. But like I want to die. Like I want to kill myself. I want to like leave this earth. But Satan telling me I'm in LA. I got if you want to come get me come get me. I'm in LA. I'm going to Beverly Hills Center. That's where I'm going at.
Starting point is 00:30:24 So if you want to come rob me. If you want to come get me come get me. I'm going to Beverly Hills Center. That's where I'm going at. So if you want to come rob me, you want to come get me, come get me. I'm going to Beverly Hills Center. I don't have no friends. Y'all see who I'm with? Nobody. I'm nobody. Nobody nears me. Nobody around me. Nobody is like near me. At the end of that video, he got out of his car and gave three kids in the corner $500 a piece and gave another $500 to a woman who saw that and asked him for money as well. And he went on to say that his baby mom always tells him that nobody Fs with him and that his ish is whack, his music, and that he believes her now. Well, he has since explained what was going on with him
Starting point is 00:30:57 during that day when he was getting emotional. Here's what he said. Let's not get this misconstrued that Osiris was being emotional. Osiris was crying because certain people in the industry doesn't mess with him. That's not get this misconstrued that osiris being emotional osiris was crying because certain people in the industry doesn't mess with him that's not true the reason i was crying the reason that i was showing emotions to let people know that other people feeling like this too i show so much happiness and joy to people that i really love and i really mess when i really look up to but i don't get the same results so that's the way i was feeling and
Starting point is 00:31:23 the devil trying to crush me trying to break me me down, trying to break me to pieces. But I'm not going to let him do that. And the devil is a liar. I'm not going to let him do that. I'm a king. I am who I am. I'm not going to let nobody change that. And I'm so sorry to all my supporters, all my family that I showed up.
Starting point is 00:31:39 You ain't got to apologize for that. You know, he's allowed to show his feelings. Stop telling men they can't show emotions. That's why you got a generation of sociopaths running around now. And also, I would tell them in the words of 50 Cent, these industry dudes ain't friends. They know how to pretend. These are working relationships
Starting point is 00:31:53 in this business. If you're blessed enough to establish some real relationships along the way, great, but for the most part, this is all business, baby. Facts. And why kill Cyrus News Therapy? All right. Now, Young Miami has landed a role in season two of BMF on Starz. Congratulations
Starting point is 00:32:09 to her. She posted Meet Deanna season two, BMF season two this January on Starz and then she posted another follow-up tweet. OMG bitch, I'm crying. So congratulations to her. That's a huge deal.
Starting point is 00:32:25 Dropping the clues bonds with Carisha. Can't wait to see 50 Cent take a picture with Carisha just to piss off Diddy. You know that's coming. You know that's coming. Alright, Wendy Williams is opening a restaurant according to Rosanna Scotto and you know
Starting point is 00:32:41 she's been loving the meatballs at certain restaurants. At this one restaurant called Fresco. That was Rosanna's restaurant. Yeah, Rosanna Scotto's restaurant. And, you know, she's a Good Day New York co-host. And she said the last time I talked to her, she's like, okay, Rosanna, I'm coming to Fresco and I want the meatballs. And then you're going to help me open up my own restaurant. And I'm like, what, sister, you want to take my people away to your restaurant?
Starting point is 00:33:01 So she said, I don't know if she wants me to waitress or what. But she did tell me she wants to open her own restaurant and she wants me to help. If there is a restaurant from Wendy, it will be big competition, but I love her. Sleuth to Rosanna Scotto, man. Drop on a clues bomb for Rosanna Scotto. Too bad Wendy can't call it Wendy's. Nope, definitely can't call it Wendy's.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Rosanna's one of the most pleasant spirits out here, man. Sleuth to Rosanna. Yeah, hard working. Absolutely. She listens every morning, every morning before she gets to work. All right. And speaking of restaurants, James Corden has apologized after being banned from a restaurant in New York City. He was banned from Balthazar.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Now, the restaurant owner, Keith McNally, said that James Corden issued an apology to him after he slammed him for his alleged behavior. So now he is allowing him back in the restaurant. He said, having effed up myself more than most people, I strongly believe in second chances. Now, what did happen? Well, apparently at one point he found a hair in his food back in June. And, you know, McNally, the owner, said,
Starting point is 00:33:58 although this is diabolical, it happens very occasionally in all restaurants. He said that James Corden finished eating his main course and then went to the manager who was very apologetic and then he said get us another round of drinks the second and also take care of all of our drinks so far this way I write any nasty reviews in Yelp or anything like that and then in another incident that happened earlier in the month he accused James Corden of complaining about his wife's food and started yelling like crazy to the server. You can't do your job. You can't do your job.
Starting point is 00:34:28 Maybe I should go into the kitchen and cook the omelet myself. And so the server initially didn't want to say anything, but she said she did publicize his actions out of loyalty to restaurant servers everywhere. Don't tell me James Corden, one of those people who act so good he two-shoes on television, but he's really a D-head behind the scenes. Well, he has apologized since then. Oh, he's just having a bad night. This is more than one occasion. Oh, wow. Mm-hmm. Dang.
Starting point is 00:34:56 But, you know, they checked him publicly. He did apologize. He's now allowed back in the restaurant, and this should be a lesson learned for him moving forward. You do pay attention to how somebody treats, you know. Absolutely. If you want to see how, you know, somebody's eventually going to treat you, watch how they treat people that can't do anything for them. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Now, Rihanna is allegedly returning with new music for Black Panther, Wakanda Forever. According to Hits Daily Double, she's going to do a pair of songs on that soundtrack. That's a big deal. That's a nice way to come back. That should be out anytime then, because the movie comes out November 11th, I believe. Yep, November 11th. Yeah, so the soundtrack should be dropping any day now.
Starting point is 00:35:37 And she's been in the studio, so makes sense. You know what that means. That means iHeartRadio is going to play it every hour on the hour. Every hour on the hour. When will it be? Maybe next week, the week after next. I can feel it coming. Got a little time.
Starting point is 00:35:50 All right, well, that is your rumor report. I can feel it coming. Whoa. Rihanna, every hour on the hour from the Wakanda Forever soundtrack. You kinky as murder.

Starting point is 00:36:43 Football! The Chargers beat the Broncos 19-16. That Russell Wilson experiment ain't working Let's get into some front page news. Now, Monday Night Football. The Chargers beat the Broncos 19-16. That Russell Wilson experiment ain't working too well in the Broncos, huh? What, they 2-4 now? Mm-hmm. Now, the Yankees were supposed to play last night, but it was postponed because of the rain. Now, what else we got, Yeezy? All right, well, let's talk about the Georgia governor's debate that That was yesterday. That's a Republican Governor Brian Kemp versus Democrat Stacey Abrams.
Starting point is 00:37:09 And there was also another third candidate to libertarian Shane Hazel, who was on stage as well. OK, so a lot of things were discussed. Voting rights were discussed, health care, crime and punishment. So here is the governor, Brian Kemp, talking about buying guns and the background check that is, he says, necessary. There's a federal background check on every individual that buys a firearm in the United States of America. Which shouldn't exist either. That is not true. Well, the point, I understand the point you're making, but the point is when you buy a firearm, you get a background check. Mr. Kemp, all right.
Starting point is 00:37:52 None of the laws changed. Mr. Kemp, if you purchase a weapon in Georgia through a gun sale or a private sale, through a gun show or a private sale, you're not subject to that. All right, we're going to have to move. All right, now, in addition to that, Brian Kemp kept bringing up the fact that he says that Stacey Abrams has no support from any sheriffs. And it's no secret that Brian Kemp has a lot of support from law enforcement groups. And Stacey Abrams responded by discussing her brothers and the nuances there. She has one brother who committed a crime and went to jail, and another brother who is a
Starting point is 00:38:26 social worker who keeps on getting pulled over by the police for doing nothing wrong. Here's what else she said. Mr. Kemp, what you are attempting to do is continue the lie that you've told so many times. I think you believe it's the truth. I support law enforcement and did so for 11 years. Worked closely with the Sheriff's Association.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Unlike you, I don't have the luxury of relying on slogans to describe my position on public safety. I believe that we need safety and justice, because I love both of my brothers. And like most Georgians, I lead a complicated life where we need access to help, but we also need to know that we are safe from racial violence. While you may not have had that experience, too many people I know have, and that is why I will always stand up for making certain that safety and justice are the conversations we're having in Georgia and the delivery we have as the next governor of Georgia. All right. And then another thing they discussed was unemployment and, you know, money flowing through the black community. Here's what they
Starting point is 00:39:21 said about that. We had the lowest unemployment rate in the country for African Americans. We're in the top 10 of the states for black entrepreneurship. So our economy is incredible and we will continue to work with all of those entrepreneurs in the days ahead and working class Georgians because we are the ones that have been fighting for you when miss abrams was not i would point out that mr kemp did not address the needs of purchasing and contracts for black and brown owned businesses which is what he has refused to do for the last 16 years we know that 10.9 billion dollars has been delivered to the state of georgia through two recent acts at the congressional level it was only in july of this year that he finally acknowledged that there might be a problem he has said that we need to study it i would tell him just cheat off of my paper i know the answer i'll tell you one thing
Starting point is 00:40:09 stacy abrams and brian kemp rafael warnock and hershel walker i can't wait to see how both of those are going to play out i am invested in how those two contests play out i know that's georgia business but boy that georgia business is highly entertaining right. Now let's talk about the world could be only a few years away from a cancer vaccine. Really? According, yes, to the couple behind the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. They feel that a cure for cancer or to changing cancer patients' lives is in our grasp. According to Professor Azam Taruchi, he told BBC News in an interview over the weekend, it's a husband and wife duo that founded BioNTech in 2008.
Starting point is 00:40:48 And that was for treatments for individualized cancer treatment. But when the pandemic hit, they used that technology to create one of the first and most effective COVID-19 vaccines. Scientists have been working on this cancer vaccine for decades. So it looks like they're getting closer to that happening, they think, by 2030. Really? I know the world about to end now. Why is that? They're about to shut this whole planet down.
Starting point is 00:41:10 If they're coming up with cures for cancer, then that means they done cashed out and they on their way to Mars. But they've been working on this for decades, so this is something that they feel like by 2030, and that's still eight years away. Yeah. You know, something like this. And what's the name of the company? As possible.
Starting point is 00:41:24 BioNTech. BioNTech. Yes. You know, something like this. And what's the name of the company? As possible, BioNTech. BioNTech. Yes, and they did the Pfizer vaccine. And, you know, that was like the earliest one. So, all right, and that is your front page news. They must got something new they're about to introduce us to. I would love to see a cure for cancer in my lifetime. I just don't feel like, you know, it behooves them to do that
Starting point is 00:41:40 just because they make so much money off the treatments. Well, you know, they've been, they said their experience developing the COVID vaccine could help accelerate their work on a cancer vaccine. And they were developing this cancer vaccine for decades. And now with the COVID vaccine and their experience in developing it, developing that one, they said it gives back to their cancer work. So it's a blueprint. And now they feel like they are a lot closer. And does it matter what kind
Starting point is 00:42:06 of cancer? Because there's so many different types of cancer. They, you know, I have no idea. But it's cancer cells. So they said one approach is to teach the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. I know there's cancer can hit any different area and there's different types of cancer, but I guess it's the cancer
Starting point is 00:42:22 cells that cause cancer. Alright, well. I'm going to throw the cancer cells that cause cancer. Alright, well. I'm going to throw some money into that stock today. Alright. That's what the hell you're thinking about? I'm looking at it up, yeah. Jesus Christ. I'm thinking about people actually living. You know what I mean? Live being saved.
Starting point is 00:42:38 This guy can talk about stocks. I am as well. I can't think about both. No! I'm thinking about both. I'm thinking about lives being saved and I'm thinking this might be a good stock to invest in as well. You ain't think about both. I got you. You just don't know one thing. I'm thinking about both. I'm thinking about lives being saved and I'm thinking this might be a good stock to invest in as well. Nothing about lives being saved. I said, this is just starting. I will say though, people who invested in the Moderna
Starting point is 00:42:53 and Pfizer stock early on when COVID started made a lot of money super early. So, all right. When we come back, Ed Sheeran will be joining us.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams.
Starting point is 00:45:31 I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.

Hey there, I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist who studies human behavior. On my podcast, A Slight Change of Plans, I marry science and storytelling to better understand how to navigate the big changes in our lives. It was like a slow nightmare, you know, because every day you think, oh, surely tomorrow I'll be better. And I would dream of being better. At night, I would dream that my face was quote unquote normal or back to the way it was. And I'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we'd wake up and there'd be no change. I also speak with scientists about how we can be more resilient in the face of change. You can think of the adolescent brain as like the social R&D engine of our culture, that something that looks like risky and idiotic to us is maybe their way of creatively trying to

No. No, everyone said that she would be, but no, she wasn't. I think she was just really happy to be a sister. Yeah, my brother was so jealous when I was born he's only a year older than me he used to um they had to like keep us separated because he was always sitting on me and he thought i was a dog because we had a dog my first daughter she just wants to hug the whole time so and my second
Starting point is 00:48:57 daughter is five months so sometimes you're like okay stop hugging her so hard what's the age difference i forgot I think like 18 Maybe 20 months Maybe 20 months See that's good See my last three Are all like Three years apart
Starting point is 00:49:10 So seven Four And one But the oldest is 14 So the age gap is so far So she's more like a How's the one year old Oh she's amazing
Starting point is 00:49:19 Oh yeah yeah I mean she's amazing But I like Yeah totally But just to I'm glad Like being close in age You you'll see the bond more. Totally, yeah, totally.
Starting point is 00:49:27 And I really wanted to do that. Like, me and my brother were super close when we were growing up, and it was, like, exactly two years between us as well. Now, what about this new music? So I saw that you did a little secret show. That was a really emotional show, man. Like, really, I've sort of made this album. I had, like, a bunch of stuff happen
Starting point is 00:49:45 at the beginning of the year and i made an album sort of in and around it and i've never i hadn't played it to anyone and then i put this uh show on it was for a mental health charity and i did you know like what chapelle does you take all the phones and stuff like that and i played all the songs for the first time and just it was really powerful well let's talk about it. What was the inspiration for the album? I had my best friend die in March. And it was as I, well, actually February the 20th, but as I was heading into a big court case, and then I had another mate die in mid-court case, and I had some other stuff in my family that was like health issues.
Starting point is 00:50:19 And it was one of those things. And I've become a problem solver in my friendship group. I sure you both of you guys are problem solvers in your friendship groups and there's just certain things you can't solve and death is one of them illness is one of them you know and it was just uh i just wrote a record around it mostly being like cathartic and it being therapeutic for me because i had no outlet of because i was i was basically in a courtroom every single day being told that i was like a thief and a liar and i had like no outlet of talking to people because i couldn't talk to anyone because i was in this case and so i just wrote a load of songs that ended up being this album that i think will come out next year but it's uh it's definitely it's the album i've thought the least about it was an album full
Starting point is 00:51:03 of grief basically totally yeah well grief and processing and like, you know, because I felt when my friend died, like the next day, everyone's life resumed as normal. And I was sort of looking around being like, no, no, no, the world has to stop for a bit. You know, like when the Queen died, the world stopped. Like I just felt like the world had to stop and just take a moment. So there's a song on there called like Life Goes On on and it's basically just lyrics are easy come hard go but
Starting point is 00:51:29 life life goes on because every like the the worst day of your life ends and the next day begins and then it's a totally new day and i just it's a lot of processing like i've never never been to therapy before and after all of this started sort of speaking to someone and it it's very just opens up your well i'm glad to hear that thank you how long you been going uh i started i started pretty much straight afterwards um june wow wow wow how was that first session like horrible man because he's talking to a stranger and you're like you're saying like the deepest darkest secrets of like childhood trauma or or this happened when I was a kid. And I was saying things I hadn't explained to anyone about
Starting point is 00:52:08 and you're telling them to an absolute stranger. And then you go, and how are you? And they go, mm-hmm. Because they can't let you into their private life. But yeah, it's been very helpful.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Sam Smith said therapy is basically someone coming in and looking at your suitcase and reorganizing it for you. I love it, man. I love therapy. I go once a week. Totally. I mean, it's something, it's still quite a taboo thing in the UK.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Everyone I know in America, I would say nine out of ten people do it. But even speaking to my friends about it back home, I've sort of mentioned it and the reaction reaction wasn't like good for you it was like oh you're right you know yeah whereas i think it is quite it should be normalized i think and you're right you are the person that i always see people commenting on how you gave them some great advice when they needed help i saw you were telling somebody from the voice that she needs to make sure she calls her parents and speaks to them and then also i saw another analogy you gave about dirty water yeah yeah yeah the dirty water thing is actually an analogy i use about lots of things but they actually started with um songwriting because all these kids that i meet are like
Starting point is 00:53:15 all of my first songs are so bad like i'm not going to be a singer and i was like do you think that the first song that i wrote was thinking out loud my first songs that i wrote was so bad but it's basically you get into an old house you turn on a tap and it runs muddy water for a bit and you get all the muddy water out and then suddenly it starts running clear water and every now and then there's a fleck of mud and there's a little bit of dirt and there's this and there's that but it just keeps flowing and songwriting's like that but also like talking about getting your feelings and emotions are like that because you get you have to let it start flowing to actually be to get to a point so with songs i'm every time i write a bad song it doesn't get me down because i know i've got that bad song out of me and i'm the next song will hopefully be a good one but
Starting point is 00:53:53 all the songs at the start were dreadful and like i i you can pull up you can pull up songs that i wrote when i was like 14 that that are on youtube and i say it to people all the time because people always say that i was born with natural talent and And I was like, no, I wasn't. I was so bad. I couldn't play guitar. I couldn't sing. I couldn't write songs. You learn to do these things.
Starting point is 00:54:09 Do you ever go back and listen to like the first radio show you did? I try not to. Yeah, exactly. So when they try to cancel me for things, I act like I don't know what they're talking about. Never heard that before.
Starting point is 00:54:17 No, when I first started in radio, I had no experience. I just went on the air and didn't know what I was doing at all. And yeah. But you have to start The more comfortable that you get with yeah You have to I feel like with any profession like anything you have to dare to suck and also accept failure Like failure is such a great part of yeah, it's like whenever I fail in something. I'm not like oh man
Starting point is 00:54:43 That's really brought me down. It's just like, OK, what can I learn from this situation? And what's the next thing? And failure just needs to be normalized. People think that I never have flopped singles. People just think I only put out hit singles because those are the things that they hear. But there's so many times you put something out and you're like, OK, well, that didn't work. Why didn't that work?
Starting point is 00:55:02 And what can I do? And it's, yeah. When's the last time that happened to you? A flopped single? Mate, i've been releasing songs all year my mantra at the beginning of the year is you know in between albums i'm very much like locked down closed i'm writing and people come to me all the time and they ask to do um collaborations and at the beginning of the year i just said right for the entire year i'm gonna say yes and see see what happens and i'd say like three out of ten have like really worked and they'll like the other seven are like kind of worked but on this type of scale that people expect from me you might say that they haven't
Starting point is 00:55:35 worked but the bar is higher for you totally but but in my mind I was just like I'm just saying yes to everything uh and I know it's going to be good because I'm going to make sure it's good but also like whatever happens, happens. And some have like, I did a song, an Afrobeat song with an artist called Fireboy DML. And it's ended up being the,
Starting point is 00:55:52 it's the biggest selling collaboration in England this year. It's the second biggest selling song of the year. I think it's the biggest Afrobeat song ever in England. And that was very much just me being open to it. It was actually my friend that passed away in February. He was the one that hooked that up.
Starting point is 00:56:05 But I didn't know that was going to be that big. I was just like, yeah, cool. I'll do that. And I think it's a nice, I don't know if I'll do a year like this again because it was a hell of a lot of shooting music videos and doing this. I saw you with Papusa.
Starting point is 00:56:18 Yeah, yeah, yeah, precisely. But that again, I was just like, yeah, why not? Why not? My mate, Big Nasty, was like, I'm doing it. Yeah, y'all might have missed out, everybody who didn't ask because he was saying yes. Yeah, well, I was just like, yeah, why not? Why not? My mate, Big Nasty was like, I'm doing it. Yeah, y'all might have missed out. Everybody who didn't ask because he was saying yes. Yeah. Well, there was a certain point where I had to like cut it off because I think by like
Starting point is 00:56:32 July, I'd committed to like 20 songs. You didn't do the Rod Wave record. Where's the Rod Wave record? We were in touch. I was in Tampa. And do you know what it was? I don't have a phone and no one else works on email. So I was in Tampa for like three days and I messaged him.
Starting point is 00:56:47 But then he got back to me like a month later. So we are going to do it. We are going to do it. But he sampled that you and I song. Yeah. But yeah, it will happen. It will happen. We are in touch.
Starting point is 00:56:59 All right. We got more with Ed Sheeran. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. J. Envy. Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ed Sheeran. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:57:06 We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Ed Sheeran. Yee. Another thing you were doing was sending out some six-foot penises. What happened?
Starting point is 00:57:14 Now, how many people got those? A few. I gave a few to some TV and radio personalities in England because this came out ages ago.
Starting point is 00:57:22 It was Elton John's 74th birthday and he's my next door neighbor in London and in his house he has these **** rings that Eminem got him for his wedding. Diamond encrusted **** rings by Eminem and they...
Starting point is 00:57:36 But it sounds painful. I don't know that you could put diamonds. I mean I've never used a **** ring but I'm assuming diamonds... Who knows? Who knows if it affects it did you know what did you know what they were when you saw them i don't know how you i don't know whether you put it over the shaft when you saw it did you know what it was when you saw it well no they said here here the diamond encrusted rings okay because i'd heard about them and you know it's a rumor that actually
Starting point is 00:58:00 they exist so it got to elton's birthday and he sent me like some wild stuff in the past for like my like my wedding and just all sorts of stuff some fun things just stuff that i have i have up in the pub and people like look at it and go oh who sent you never saw no rings in the pub no he's really into like arty photography so i have this really really weird photo i don't really know how to explain it it's just like it's like a 95 year old woman who's naked with like seven dudes around her all naked as well it's it's it's probably yeah you probably would have done yeah and anyway so i digress it was his birthday i was like what do you get elton john for his birthday so i have a friend that was a um a stone carver and he'd made me a chess board and i I said, can you make anything?
Starting point is 00:58:46 And he was like, yeah, I can make anything. And I was like, can you do me a few iterations of marble penises? Like, I don't know if I need a flaccid one or if it's erect and veiny or if it's like big or maybe one's sandstone, maybe one's marble. So anyway, I got a bunch made. I chose one. I got it put on a plinth and I got written on it. To Elton, happy birthday, you c***. And I was like, this is brilliant. And I sent it put on a plinth and I got written on it to Elton happy birthday you And I was like this is brilliant, and I sent it to him. I heard nothing and I was like
Starting point is 00:59:11 Why is taking it a step too far like I know he's got a sense of humor But he's also got like young kids and like did it turn over the house and anyway like a week and a half later I get I get a FaceTime from him, and he's like I Love it and anyway. he's banging to it. I got him a micro penis for his birthday this year. So like a really tiny marble one. He just gave me a great Christmas gift idea. But then
Starting point is 00:59:33 from that, he spoke about it in an interview and then I spoke about it in an interview and then all these other interviews that I was doing, people were like well can I have one? So I would just send them to people and then Sam Smith came around my house Sam was recording at a recording studio that I was doing, people were like, well, can I have one? So I would just send them to people and then Sam Smith came around my house. Sam was recording at a recording studio that I have nearby.
Starting point is 00:59:50 Sam came around, saw one of them that I was meant to send to Elton, but I didn't, like one of the iterations and Sam was like, I want that. Sam said,
Starting point is 00:59:57 can I have a six foot two one? And I was like, I guess so. I don't even know the cost of it. Well, because Sam is six foot two. So he wouldn't want his exact height. Look the penis in the eye.
Starting point is 01:00:07 But it's two and a half tons. Like two and a half. Do you know how heavy two and a half tons is? That's heavier than like a car. And you can't have that in a car. Why'd you make such heavy d***s, Ed?
Starting point is 01:00:17 But now I've found a d*** carver in America. So if you guys want if you guys want marble d***s. Yeah, just not six foot two. I want the contact. No, I can make you a small one. guys want marble yeah just 96 bit too I want the contact no I can make you a small one
Starting point is 01:00:28 how much do they cost I mean they range I think the cheapest has been five grand I think the most expensive has been 40 let me ask you a question you said you sent them to like personalities was there anybody that did like a bad review of an album or had something negative to say so you sent it to them with a card that says suck my.
Starting point is 01:00:45 No, I've sent plaques to people like that before. Like when I got bad, bad reviews for my first album, I remember sending plaques to people. You think the pop world is more fickle? Totally. Yeah. Pop world is very much here today, gone tomorrow. And I'm 31 now. Like I'm old for a pop star. Like, but I when I first came out out i was 18 and i was the new hot fresh young thing and then you know chun mendez comes out and he's 15 and that's you're suddenly old and oh yeah so uh yeah pop world is is fickle but that's why it's just all it's all songs it's
Starting point is 01:01:16 you just have to write good songs it's not it's not about anything other than songs you can have like campaigns that are based around like tick tock moments or like viral campaigns or doing yeah but but if the song isn't good it's not matter yeah but if the song's great it explodes but it's it helps a lot of um newer artists too or like independent artists on tick tock all of a sudden it's totally viral well and and there's no gatekeepers really anymore it's just like you can put a song out and it was, you know, like a song like Little Yachty's Poland. It can just explode. And it's the people that make that happen.
Starting point is 01:01:51 The people are like, right, this song's great. Let's make this song. Do you like Poland? Man, I listened to Poland for the first time this weekend. And I looked at it. I'm like, something must be wrong with my phone. Because it said it's only a minute and 20 seconds long. I love it so much.
Starting point is 01:02:04 I mean, you can't miss with a minute and 20 seconds long i love it so much i mean you can't miss with a minute 20 second song i'm like does this even register like if you play it like but it just gets in your head i was in i was in the studio on saturday with um benny blanco and he was like have you heard it and i was like nah and he played it to me and the first time i heard it i was like i don't know what to think about this and then it was just in my head yeah that's what i thought too i was like the more you played the more this that took whatever he's saying it's like some melody he keeps saying over and over and over to poland and i was like what is a walk uh i think it's coding oh i googled it and apparently the company is called like walkford farmer or something like that oh oh okay that's what
Starting point is 01:02:40 urban dictionary says anyway now tell me about it i was like i was thinking that that's what Urban Dictionary says anyway. Now tell me about it. You looked it up? Yeah. You looked it up? I was like, what is a wok? I was thinking that too. I was like, what is a wok? Well, in England, a wok is a giant frying pan that you make. Yeah. So I was like, oh, he's making noodles. Sick. Yeah. What is a cigarette in England?
Starting point is 01:02:55 Something you can't say here, apparently. Do they still say that? Well, yeah. Okay. Yeah, we do. Not in a song. No, but, oh, no, go on. I say it in England because that's what the slang is.
Starting point is 01:03:09 I would just never say it over here. But the C word in England is a term of endearment, whereas over here, it is like you're punched up if you're saying it. See what I'm saying? Wow.
Starting point is 01:03:17 That's a term of endearment? Yeah. I think the word bitch or snake or rat or cow or pig, those are way more offensive than calling someone... Cow and pig? If someone called a member of your family a pig or a cow versus something of the female anatomy...
Starting point is 01:03:36 A ****? Yeah, it's just how you say it. It's a **** rat. You know, you're a rat. You're a snake. So much more... Anyway, this is an argument I will never win because people are offended by what they're offended by.
Starting point is 01:03:47 But I just think... No, I'm with you. In England,land in my generation it is used as a term of endearment like a prick if you're like you're a prick like it's that doesn't sound so bad prick is like whatever i don't know man it's just all it's all it's all context in it and it's all how how you say it because the c word can be super offensive i think it's super offensive if you use the t. It's c***. It's offensive. So what do you think? In England, no one pronounces their Ts, do they? You know, you would call someone a chatty patty
Starting point is 01:04:12 rather than a chatty patty. Chat pat. Chat, chat, chat. You know what? Another thing that here was different for us was the Queen, Queen Elizabeth's funeral. And I know there was a lot of... Why was it different though?
Starting point is 01:04:25 I feel like it was huge in England. Well, I'm talking about here in the United States. Like we're like, you know, it was in the news for so long. You guys really care about the monarchy though.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Why though? I don't, but I'll be wondering why do people here? Well, it's history. Like someone put it to me, they were like, I would prefer to have
Starting point is 01:04:44 a Queen Elizabeth than a President Truss, basically. President Truss? me, they were like, I would prefer to have a Queen Elizabeth than a President Truss, basically. A President Truss? Well, we've got a Prime Minister Truss. Because every four or eight years you have someone new come in. And we do have Prime Ministers, but also our politics is absolutely f***ed at the moment.
Starting point is 01:04:58 But there's something about having a head of state that's comforting for people, I think. Having, like, the Queen was there for, you know, she ruled for 70 years. And I don't't know she kind of felt like everyone's basically the monarchy lots of people disagree with it and lots of people love it i saw the picture of you and the queen you talked about it on a colbert yeah yeah you said she farted that's why she was smiling are you farting no i was standing next to a comedian that made a joke. Okay.
Starting point is 01:05:27 The mad thing about the Queen's Jubilee is I started playing guitar watching that on TV. I was 11 years old and I watched that on TV and Eric Clapton came on and played Layla and I was like, that's what I want to do. And then 10 years, exactly 10 years later, I was on the same Jubilee playing
Starting point is 01:05:43 my song to the audience of England. And then 10 years later I was on the same Jubilee playing my song to you know all the audience in England and then ten years later again which was I think June June this year I ended up doing it again so it's it's mad like there's mad stuff around my connection with the Jubilee and the Queen and it means a lot to you totally yeah is that one of those things that when you met the Queen your parents were like oh Ed's really doing it he's somebody they were there they were there i brought i brought them down yeah i think the the times the times that have made my dad be like oh he's really doing it was actually at the jubilee as well i introduced my dad to paul mccartney and i think that that was when he was like sir paul mccartney
Starting point is 01:06:18 yeah all right we got more with ed sheeran when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning yeah would you perform at Robert Kraft's wedding? Do you know what was mad about that? Is everyone always wants me to play perfect at their wedding. And I've never done it because I usually play on weekends or I'm with my family. And I don't want to do anything on the weekend. You've never done perfect at a wedding? That is the wedding.
Starting point is 01:06:38 No pun intended. It's the perfect wedding song. And when I was playing it at Robert Kraft's, because he asked me just to play perfect. So when I was playing it, I was like, oh, this is the first time i've played it what yeah mad mad it's fun it was a fun fun wedding though elton john was my opening act he played just before me and then like me came on stage and it was good i met like do y'all get paid for that uh no that was like uh i'm doing a show for him so we're doing like gillette stadium and stuff like that so it was more of a bonus. He was my first stadium in the States. Oh, got you, got you, got you. Did you get a seat at the table and like a plate and everything?
Starting point is 01:07:11 No, but they did get me some food. I was basically late there. Like I'm not, he had his closest like mates there. I'm not that weird, but we're close. He was my first ever stadium in the States. So when Elton John opens up for you, right, do you ever look and say to yourself, I really got to step up my rider and everything else?
Starting point is 01:07:29 Because I know Elton gets everything. He gets a good rider. What was mad, though, is I was chatting to Meek while Elton was on stage, and we were like here, and Elton's there playing to like 100 people. And then I stopped the conversation. I was like, Meek, isn't it mad that we're like talking over
Starting point is 01:07:53 Intimate like this is like you ever think that you'd ever be in a position where like this is normal because it just became Became normal, but yeah, no my ride. I was like you was trying to tell me shut the fuck up I'm trying to listen to Elton She was trying to get out the conversation. I love meek. I really, really love him. What if Elton would have been like, guys, can you stop talking about me? Shut up! No, my rider is usually just a nice bottle of wine. Because I feel like if you ask for one thing, they're going to get it.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Actually, do you know the rumor about Madonna getting only blue M&Ms? I've heard that about Mariah. I've heard that about a few people. So do you know why people do that? So tour managers do that so tour managers do that because they have a very extensive rider of like very very specific things if it has to be
Starting point is 01:08:31 this kind of tea and it has to be this kind of water and blah blah blah and then they say all blue m ms because if it's all blue m ms they walk into the dressing room they see all blue m ms and they go right you've got everything we need in this rider and i don't need to double check it like i just i just thought it was a diva thing. But it's basically they walk in and they know that everything has been followed to the tee, basically. Wow. Fascinating, isn't it? I saw people congratulate, well, not congratulating you,
Starting point is 01:08:56 but they were bigging you up because you kept the ticket prices reasonable. Yeah. Are you doing that because you're aware of how the economy is now? I used to go to gigs as a kid and the tickets that I bought, I could always afford and I could go with my friends and I don't want to, like, without sounding crass,
Starting point is 01:09:11 like, what is the extra money you're going to do for my life? Like, I would rather play sold out gigs everywhere in the world than have an extra X amount of whatever. And like, I know how much my show costs and I know how much I kind of want to walk away
Starting point is 01:09:25 with and after that i'm sort of fine with it and i'm sure your merch does amazing too totally yeah and you know and people coming to the gigs like this isn't going to be the last time i tour you want to repeat business you want people being like do you know what i went to that show with all of my mates and we had a great time and we'll go next time and this is what i've done for my entire career is just like make tickets reasonable and affordable and they will come and my last tour was the biggest selling tour in the world and the highest grossing as well so we still made good money and everyone came to the gig so i'm just you know i don't believe in the platinum seats and the vip areas and the sold meet and greets like we do partnerships with uh radio
Starting point is 01:10:04 stations for meet and greets and it do partnerships with uh radio stations for meet and greets and it's always free and it's always competition so fans actually enter the competitions they excited to go they don't feel like they're parting with money to meet you and feel cheated out of it and there's just ways that i like to do it and it's always worked so i'm not going to change it you said something just now about doing not wanting to do things that you don't believe in how hard is it not to be a clout chaser in 2022 because i know people probably come to you and be like you know ed this person's doing this and this person's doing that maybe you should try to do this type of record or maybe you should take a picture doing this and totally well i mean tiktok is that i never really understood tiktok but tiktok controls
Starting point is 01:10:39 songs now really there's a team in the uk that come to me and they go well these are the trends and i'll go well this is quite funny and this is quite funny and i'll just choose the things that i want to do so i guess that is kind of chasing clout but it's essentially that's how you advertise your music now in in terms of like genres like i'm i love spanning all genres i like trying different things i like making like anything i've sung in Italian, I've sung in French, I've sung in Japanese. I'm up for trying anything. But I think you have to walk into something
Starting point is 01:11:10 with a somewhat knowledge of it and respect of it rather than just being like, oh, that's the hot thing. I'm going to do that. So when I first made Afrobeat, I moved to Ghana and lived there for a month
Starting point is 01:11:23 and made a lot of music that wasn't just my music. I made music that went on other people's projects and stuff. How was that experience, living in Ghana for a month? Amazing. So good. Did you go to the door, no return and all of that stuff? The slave castles? No, we went to the guy that I went with, Fuse ODG. He had a house
Starting point is 01:11:40 there and he had a studio in his house. We went out and about, but not like hugely. We would go for runs and stuff like that what the thing i loved about it is you'd be in the studio all day making these songs and then a phone call be made 200 people turn up to the house and then you have a party to the songs with that said do you have a hard time just selling music nowadays and what i mean by that is people want your life totally they want to know about the wife and the kids like but no i just want to give them the music it's an odd line isn't it because i think well i think kids are always off off the table like there's no there's no point with with that but it's it's interesting with my life with cherry because the songs are about it
Starting point is 01:12:19 so there's obviously interest in it and you, we're shooting a documentary at the moment around my life. And there was a big conversation about what do we include? And I think that as long as it's honest and it links in with a theme of something that's in a song, there's no point putting something in if it is just detrimental to your life, I think. But yeah, it's definitely there's a fine line, isn't it? Because we're all public figures. Everyone's interested in what you talk about your personal life, I think. But yeah, it's definitely, there's a fine line, isn't it? Because we're all public figures. Everyone's interested in what you talk about your personal life on the radio. You talk about your personal
Starting point is 01:12:50 life on the radio. Therefore, you've somewhat opened the door. But then there's also this boundary, preaching privacy of being like, oh, actually, I'm a human being that sometimes people forget. So yeah, it's a very fine line. But that's why I like you've been to my house in Suffolk.
Starting point is 01:13:05 Like that's why I live where I live and I don't live in Los Angeles and I don't, um, my life as a celebrity is switched on when it needs to be switched on. So I come to New York and I'm working this week, so I'm doing the TVs and I'm doing the radios and I'm, I'm a celebrity for the week. But when I go home,
Starting point is 01:13:19 I'm a friend, I'm a dad, I'm a husband, I'm a son. And that's my, like I, you can't bring celebrity baggage into a pub in Suffolk. You just have to be yourself. Well, what if the pub was in your yard?
Starting point is 01:13:34 Right next to your house? Yeah, I mean, that is, you know, actually, since you came and then basically the pandemic happened, that pub hasn't really been properly used as a pub. What? Yeah, it's weird. Like, the kind of way of hanging out, I don't know if it's changed here, but the way of hanging out in England is very different. It's not like 20 people go to a meetup
Starting point is 01:13:50 with like a mate and go to a pub. But it used to just be a bit more free, I feel. I would think that that would be the place everybody would have came to hang out during the pandemic. Because y'all are in your little bubble right there. I don't know how it was here, but like it was very much people were trying to catch you out.
Starting point is 01:14:08 Being irresponsible? Yeah, so a neighbor of someone might tell the press of someone coming around. And then you have kids and a family too, and I think you have to be more responsible when you have that. Well, we actually didn't have a kid for the first half. Cherry was pregnant for the first half. But that's how we kept it so quiet. No one knew she was pregnant yeah so can we expect a new album you said some track is coming yeah subtract is coming uh there's a new album and then there's new music i'm basically like i'm in the most creative part of my life i feel because of the pressure of every album having to be this like gargantuan pop machine is off i've had five of them now
Starting point is 01:14:47 and i feel like now's the time to actually explore doing stuff and taking risks because i'm going to be on a stadium tour for five years so even if i put out an album and it bombs i'm still playing to 92 000 people that night you know there's no i don't feel the pressure of it you're going on tour for the next five years are Well, including this year, yeah. We finish in 2026. Wow. That's amazing. That's my guy, Ed Sheeran, man.
Starting point is 01:15:09 Ed, thank you for coming, brother. Yeah, thanks for always stopping by to see us. I know you don't have to, but it's nice that you do. I love it. I love it. It's always the best interview of the day for me. I love it. All right, that's my man, Ed Sheeran.
Starting point is 01:15:18 It's The Breakfast Club. Outro Music you get it up. Call me rude boy, boy, is you big enough? Take it, take it, baby, baby, take it, take it, love it, love it. Tonight, I'ma let you be the captain. Tonight, I'ma let you do your thing, yeah.

Starting point is 01:18:38 This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right. Well, this seems to be happening all the time in this music business. Glorilla is talking about the FNF song and how she hasn't made any money from that song. This is all in response to Hit Kid, who is publicly claiming that there could be a potential legal battle on the way. He posted, I told you and your manager every day that we was in L.A. with Sweetie, that labels are going to try to sign you because of FNF. So watch out. I also told you to let me
Starting point is 01:19:08 know when labels reach out so we can be on the same page, but you still went and signed my song without telling me. He said, I did my best to protect you and the girls. This is only a portion of what I've been through. I'm bringing light to this before word get out. Like I'm the bad guy. I'm a standup guy and I stand on business and morals. Well, Glorilla says and we're done made so much money from FNF and I haven't made not one red cent other than shows, but I'm still prospering because guess what? I
Starting point is 01:19:34 can rap in real life and ain't no MF1 hit wonder. I wrote every single lyric and every single song I ever put out and even after all this, I still got love for Hit Kid because we came up together even though he'd been going behind my back ever since the song blew up. But that's another story for another day. I just hate the fact he had to bring the business to social media
Starting point is 01:19:51 when I Could Have Been came out about the snake-ish he'd been doing to me. Here's what else Glorilla had to say. My label means with me. I mean, Hit Kid a good duo, you know what I'm saying? Like, I'm telling them if I sign with y'all, you know what I'm saying? I want him to come with me. I'm saying that the whole time and then another time he kept saying if they want to they're gonna have to pay me I forgot exactly
Starting point is 01:20:10 what amount he said he just said between a hundred K or five hundred K they're gonna have to pay me for this song he got the same thing after he kept saying labels called me so I'm like he on some he's saying I use CMG lawyers my lawyer is not aG lawyer. He was trying to get me to use his lawyer though I wrote that box. He just said say it again at the end That's the only thing he contributed to that song if it happened that would have won me and him would have won the award BAM didn't happen I won All right, she also That was her response to hit kids saying I told her and her manager not to use the lawyers from the label
Starting point is 01:20:40 They still did I'm the last person to lie to make me look good And she responded and words been salty ever since I and the last person to lie to make me look good. And she responded, N-Word's been salty ever since I signed a label to be a group for $0 SMH. One more thing before I log out.
Starting point is 01:20:52 N-Word, you signed a song away the first week without me knowing for 50K because you didn't know how big it was going to be. Should I keep going?
Starting point is 01:20:59 I mean, the record was both for their records, right? When it came out, it just wasn't Glorilla's. It was Hit Kid's and Glorilla. But they were in a group so she could sign to whoever she wanted to sign, right? When it came out, it just wasn't Glorilla's. It was Hit Kid's and Glorilla. But they were in a group, so she could sign to whoever
Starting point is 01:21:06 she wanted to sign, right? I feel like this happens all the time. Why, they're just not splitting the proceeds of the record together. I think they did say, now, this is according to Kadeem Phillips, the founder of Power Entertainment, who broke down the deal
Starting point is 01:21:21 with Glorilla and Hit Kid. Now, he said, let me address this from the business side because I see a lot of confusion. At the end of the day, Anthony Holmes did great business. He gave up 50% of the masters and 50% of the publishing for FNF directly to Glow. We actually did everything to protect Glow
Starting point is 01:21:35 from the industry and herself. Honestly, Glow independently collects the money for FNF. It's all hers. She just doesn't own the song and never will. We actually saved her from losing millions, and Glow was able to get a deal without having to sell her independent record. FNF was created to help all the girls, not for CMG, just like Tony doesn't own Tomorrow,
Starting point is 01:21:52 or Bless Glow doesn't own FNF since Hit Kid put the song out, which was always the plan. Glow and Hit Kid get 50% split evenly of all the money brought in. Yeah, so they split the money. And he said, unfortunately, CMG froze all the money, even Glow money, in their latest claim to us. And she responded, shut your big crybaby ass up.
Starting point is 01:22:11 Alright. So, yes. It seems like GLOW has 50%, they have 50%, but it seems like CMG wants the record on her project. That's what it seems like. Right. They just gotta pay for it. Happens all the time. Alright, well, now they're going back and forth about that.
Starting point is 01:22:25 We see this, though. You know, people do stuff together, then things blow up, and maybe you didn't anticipate what was going to happen. That happens all the time. All the time. An artist comes out with a record, the record blows up, a label tries to sign it and tries to get that record, but the record might be owned to somebody else.
Starting point is 01:22:40 They just got to pay for it. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Missy. Charlamagne, who are you giving that donkey to? Man, four after the hour. Let's talk about how one wrong decision can ruin your whole life, guys.
Starting point is 01:22:52 All right. Let's talk about it. All right. We'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Donkey of the Day with Charlamagne Tha God. I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this.
Starting point is 01:22:59 Well, it's not me, Duval. It's Florida. Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, October 18th goes to two Florida men, William Hale, 35 years old, and Frank Allison, 43 years old. Now, what does your Uncle Sharla always say about the great state of Florida? Huh? Repeat after me. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and today is no exception.
Starting point is 01:23:19 Now, we all know in Florida, you don't need a permit or license to buy a gun. Okay? Any gun, by the way. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're 18 and older, you can buy as many guns as you want at one time in good old Florida. 21 handgun, 18 rifle. Okay. So shotguns, rifles, handguns, AR-15s, easy.
Starting point is 01:23:36 Easy, easy to buy. Okay. I ran across this article on CBS News. It's a few years old, but they said that five things that are more complicated to buy in Florida than guns. Would you like to know what those five things are? Cold medicine, a marriage license, fertilizer,
Starting point is 01:23:53 anti-diarrhea medication, and medical marijuana. All more complicated to buy in Florida than a gun. Why am I saying all of this is because this is what you need to think about when you're in Florida. I don't care where you're from or what you hold and just know when you're in Florida, you got guns, they got guns too. Okay. Which is why when I hear stories like the ones I'm about to tell you this
Starting point is 01:24:13 morning, this should be a reminder to us all to mind our business, but especially when in Florida, because as adults, our poor choices impact more than us. Okay, this is why I don't understand why people with families, folks with young kids don't make better decisions because it's not about you, bro. All right, it's about you churning them. And these two dads who have been charged with attempted murder clearly don't care about their families
Starting point is 01:24:37 because these two fools decided to open fire on each other. And in the process, they both shot each other's daughters. I said, I said, these two fools decided to open fire on each other. And in the process, they both shot each other's daughters. I can't make this kind of stuff up.
Starting point is 01:24:55 Let's go to Action News Jacksonville for the report, please. Authorities say 35-year-old William Joseph Hale of Douglas, Georgia, and 43-year-old Frank Gillard Allison of Callahan were involved in the incident traveling northbound on US-1, initially coming from the Jacksonville area. Leeper says both were speeding and driving erratically and brake-checking each other. At some point in the encounter, both exchanged gunfire. The shootings ended up hurting both of their daughters.
Starting point is 01:25:24 You can hear the chaotic scene in this 911 call moments after the road rage shooting. Both girls were transported to the hospital once police arrived. Thankfully no one was killed in this incident but it could have been very easily turned out that way because two people were acting stupid and let their tempers get the best of them. There could have been two dead kids because of two stupid grown men. Come on, man. What is this? Call a daddy? OK, as a dad, I feel like our only job is to protect and provide. All right. There's no way that I am providing the safety my child needs.
Starting point is 01:26:03 If I decide I want to shoot at someone in traffic. And this is also when, you know, a person never learned the golden rule in kindergarten. You know, that whole doing the doing the others as you would have them doing the you thing, because I would never shoot at someone while my child was in the car with me unless our lives were in extreme danger, simply because I wouldn't want someone shooting at me with my daughter in the car. And that's my biggest question. Did these guys know that both of them had their daughters in the car? Frank's daughter was 14. Okay, William had to see her.
Starting point is 01:26:30 Poor girl got shot in the back, and now she has a collapsed lung. William's daughter is five, and she was hitting the leg. The five-year-old might have been in a car seat in the back, but damn, if you saw that 14-year-old girl in the car with her dad and still open fire, or if you saw the five-year-old in the car with her dad and still open fire, man, y'all-year-old in the car with her dad and still open fire man y'all some cold-hearted individuals here's the thing one wrong decision can ruin your whole life okay both of these daughters could be dead hell they could have gotten shot while driving ran off the road crashed killed themselves and others all because of some
Starting point is 01:26:59 damn road rage i know i know you're asking why why why would something like this happen well the answer is simple okay one word two or three syllables depending on how you pronounce it uh and that is flow rye duh okay please give william hale and frank allison the sweet sounds of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw. Those poor girls probably going to never want to ride in the car ever again. Never.
Starting point is 01:27:39 Especially the 14-year-old. The 5-year-old might, you know, maybe grow up and forget about it. I doubt it. But they never going to want to ride in a car ever again, especially with daddy. Nope. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. And what if that was his time with his children?
Starting point is 01:27:54 What if they like... You mean like a stepdaughter? Yeah. No, no, no, no. What if that's his kid? Were they not married? So that's his like court-ordered appointed custody. What if that for both of them?
Starting point is 01:28:03 Can you imagine? Wow. No, you're never going back. You're never getting custody again, ever again. I'm not leaving my children with you. No way. Never leaving my children with you, ever. All right. Well, let's open up the phone lines.
Starting point is 01:28:12 We see in this instance, one bad decision ruined both of the family's lives. So we're asking. For sure. 800-585-1051. Has a bad decision almost ruined your life? Almost? Almost. I don't even know what a bad decision almost ruined your life? Almost? Almost. I don't even know what that means.
Starting point is 01:28:27 Almost ruined your life. Either your life got ruined or it didn't. All right. You made a bad decision that almost ruined your life. Your life ain't over, but it almost did. Maybe it took a while to get back afterward. I don't know. That's a good question.
Starting point is 01:28:42 800-585-1051. It feels like you're thinking about something in particular. Oh, they know what my bad decision was. Let's not good question. 800-585-1051. It feels like you're thinking about something in particular. Oh, they know what my bad decision was. Let's not assume that. I'm not talking about it. Was it just for men on your chin? 800-585-1051. It don't look real.
Starting point is 01:28:56 That's what I mean. Shut up and know. No, no, it's not a bad decision. There's more natural looking dyes out there. 800-585-1051. Has a bad decision almost ruined your life? 800-585-1051. Has a bad decision almost ruined your life? Something that you did almost took you down forever.
Starting point is 01:29:14 I be feeling like those bad decisions be getting your life on track sometime, though. You know what I'm saying? It almost ruined your life, but it got you back on track. You can see where it's going. If you're wise, that's what I say. They say smart people learn from their own mistakes. Wise people learn from the mistakes of others, right? So sometimes you see things and you can see where you're headed if you don't nip
Starting point is 01:29:32 things in the bud. Fix it up. Alright. Yeah. We'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 01:29:50 We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, Charlamagne gave Don Quay today to two individuals. Yeah, two fathers in Florida, William Hale and Frank Allison, 35 and 43 years old. They got into a shootout over a road rage incident, and both of them had their daughters in their car, so their daughters got hit. Thankfully not dead, but one of the daughters got shot in the back and has a collapsed lung.
Starting point is 01:30:11 The other daughter got hit in the leg, sadly. So we're asking 800-585-1051, have you ever got into an incident that almost ruined your life, a bad decision that almost ruined your life? Ye? I've definitely made bad decisions, but I don't know about something that almost ruined my life ye i've definitely made bad decisions but i don't know about something that almost ruined my life things have changed my life but ruined is a strong word okay so i'm gonna say no has a bad decision almost ruined my life in my mind yeah in my mind i could
Starting point is 01:30:39 see that if i kept going down you know a certain path or as my daddy would say, if I don't change my, you know, lifestyle, I'm going to ruin my life. So I don't know. Yeah, I do feel like ruined is a strong word, but I feel like, you know, a lot of those bad decisions and bad choices got me on the right track. You know what I mean? So I didn't ruin my life.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Okay. I mean, I could think of when I did something stupid in college, stealing out of a store. That could have ruined my life. Oh, my gosh. It could have. What did you steal? Nothing. It was allegedly.
Starting point is 01:31:12 But it could have. What? Why? Because I could have got arrested. I could have got a felony. It could have been a felony on my life. I got a couple of those. That much money?
Starting point is 01:31:20 Something that valuable? Was it... Are you snitching on me? Larceny? Yes, grand larceny. But, or even cheating on your spouse. Don't point at me.
Starting point is 01:31:30 Okay, I don't even know why you put your little hand out at me. It's both of us. No, no, no, no, no, no. If you want to have this conversation, you have this conversation
Starting point is 01:31:37 amongst yourself. I don't want to have this conversation. But I do agree with that, though. But I agree with that based off smart people learn from their own mistakes, wise people learn
Starting point is 01:31:44 from the mistakes of others. I saw the route my dad's life took. You know what I mean? And not just my dad. There's not a man I know who cheated on their wife and their life was better for it. I don't know any. I'm not saying that there isn't out there. I'm just talking about personally in my life.
Starting point is 01:32:00 The ones I've seen, they all tell me how much they regret it later. And I can see how the quality of their life went down. Bad choice, bad decision could have ruined my life. That's right, but based on that, that is what got me to get on the right path, because when I saw myself going down that same path, I thought about all of those individuals.
Starting point is 01:32:17 I don't want that, and I don't want that for my family. I'm not about to do to my family what I saw other people do to theirs. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? It's Raphael. Talk again, gang. You heard?
Starting point is 01:32:30 Raphael. Hey, blow the horn one more time for the people. There you go. Now, what decision did you make that almost ruined your life? All right. This is a while back. First of all, let me start off by saying God bless, and I appreciate to be online with you guys.
Starting point is 01:32:46 I hear you guys every morning through iHeartRadio. And yeah, so what my story is, a while back, man, I would say like I was 18 years old. And I lived in a rough environment like everybody else and shit like that. And I was working in bowls and I had a really good career, man. I was going up the ladder and stuff like that. And the company was looking for people to move to South Carolina because the new factory was getting built over there. So I went down there.
Starting point is 01:33:19 We looked at houses and stuff like that. Man, the company was looking out for the employees at the time. And so I filled out the paperwork. You know, I called my mother, and I'm like, mom, man, you know, like every boy's dream at that time, mom, I'm gonna take you out to the ghetto, you know, we're good, we're good, so I come back, I heard some stuff, and I had a little punk 22 in the car, and I was getting out of work on route nine, and got pulled over and i got arrested and right there in one quick second you know one quick minute i end up losing everything that i really worked hard for damn damn damn damn my gosh so yeah sorry bro but before you guys before you guys cut me off i was really truly uh calling because i need you guys every morning man you
Starting point is 01:34:03 guys are really uh a good influence and stuff like that for people and stuff like that. But I was just calling because today's my birthday. And I was born in, like Charlemagne said, I was born in the 1900s. That's right. Happy birthday, brother. Happy birthday, Ken. I appreciate y'all, man. Real talk, man.
Starting point is 01:34:21 God bless. And keep doing what you guys do. You all right? Thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? Oh, Aisha. Hey, A aisha we're talking about a bad decision that almost ruined your life yes and first off hey everybody peace but i was a very reckless and wild kid i was very angry um i had me and my sister got to an argument and my ex had a gun while me and my sister argument going that ago and that i told my ex i was like get the gun like i gun while me and my sister arguing going at it.
Starting point is 01:34:45 And then I told my ex, I was like, get the gun. Like, I was ready to kill my sister right then and there. Wow. And I'm glad I did not. We're glad you didn't. Yeah, because the relationship we have today, I'm very, I'm going to cry. I'm very much thankful for it. But I just know, like, if I would have did that, one, I would have lost my life in jail.
Starting point is 01:35:04 And then two, I wouldn't have the relationship that would have lost my life in jail um and then two I wouldn't have the relationship that I have you know today and I'm just glad I didn't do that but that was a very traumatic moment for me and for her as well she was like you're gonna kill me you're gonna kill me and I was like yeah like I'm sick of it I'm sick of it I'm tired of this and yeah that's that's my story well you. Thank God you didn't shoot your sister. Thank God. I mean, she's alive and well. We have a great relationship.
Starting point is 01:35:30 Did that make you all closer? No, that did not. We actually didn't talk until I got pregnant with my son. And that's actually what brought us closer together. We grew up in a household. My mom, she wasn't really like so loving. She used to always put us against each other like oh well your sister said this about you you're like just this little dumb stuff
Starting point is 01:35:50 um so we really have a strange relationship until we actually got of age i think like at 20 23 is when we actually started talking and having like a sisterly bond and you know talking about what we went through and you know i was like you know do forgive me? I'm so sorry I even thought to do that. But, yeah. Wow. Well, thank you for calling and sharing your story. You're very welcome. Can I say one more thing?
Starting point is 01:36:11 Go ahead, Mama. I know we're talking about, like, a sad thing, but I need some backdoor access, like Trav did for you and freaking Uncle Charlo. Because I swear, that boy, he got a back line either to your butt or to your mouth. I love y'all though. Wow. Since you found us out, let's do the butthole. Are you
Starting point is 01:36:34 willing to go that route? We don't want you back there. We're married. I understand you guys are married, but I know y'all probably do a little sink the dink on the side. No, we don't. Black men don't cheat. Aren't we sitting't. Only Trav can go that way. Aren't we sitting here having conversations about mistakes that almost ruined our lives?
Starting point is 01:36:52 Didn't you just say Trav goes that way? Right, and a little butt play is not going to ruin your life. It just might hurt your butt, but it's not going to ruin your life. See, I didn't know you was being literal. I thought we was playing about, you know, how somebody gets through the phone line, but then, you know. He said a little butt play is going to ruin your life. Jesus Christ. Yes, it would.
Starting point is 01:37:05 800-585-1051. We're asking, has a bad decision almost ruined your life? Call us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I know it now. I know it now. I know it now.
Starting point is 01:37:17 I know it now. I know it now. That kid don't even deal with that. Call me. Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club Topic. Come on. 800-585-1051. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:37:30 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, Charlamagne gave donkey of the day to two dads, right? Yeah, man. Two dads in Florida. William Hale, 35 years old. Frank Allison, 43 years old, got into a shootout over a road rage incident, and both of their daughters was in the cars with them, and one
Starting point is 01:37:51 of their daughters got shot in the back and had a collapsed lung, now the other daughter got shot in the leg. 14 years old and five years old, man. Come on, man. So we're asking, has a bad decision almost ruined your life? Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Sarah from Florida. Hey, Sarah from Florida. Hey, Sarah from Florida.
Starting point is 01:38:06 Florida, Florida, Florida. And this story is from Florida. What happened, Mama? I need y'all to understand something, okay? Florida back in the day, it was rednecks. You know, they slept with their sisters and in-laws. You know, stuff like that. The quick update today is from everybody in the entire nation moving down here.
Starting point is 01:38:24 I don't know what's in the air, what's in the water. Y'all love it down here, and y'all bring y'all crazy down here. Okay, fair enough. So what happened, Mama? So for me, my son is 17. When he was about 5 or 6, I was taking him to school. And if anybody knows me, I'm always running late, always running late. So this particular time, I'm running late, but the lady in front of me is driving a little slow so I go
Starting point is 01:38:49 around her uh respectfully but I guess she felt like I was doing it disrespectfully and um she ended up coming behind me so when I got to the school I made a u-turn around that by the exit but when she was coming it was like I was cutting her off so she took the opportunity to confront me so she's all outside my door because you know going off be this be where that that that you put my kids in danger I did not we were all going to sea limit so it was slow like 10 miles an hour so really but what ended up happening was what I went wrong is I ended up getting out the car to be more you know know, a little bit closer to what she was saying, to hear her a little bit better. So with the thing, you know how people are when you're arguing in front of each other.
Starting point is 01:39:32 She ended up like kind of like poking me in my head. When I swatted her hand away, she swung on me and we went to fighting. We went to fighting. We were throwing down. We were stomping. We were going hard. Her kids, which was one of them, I think, went to the school, the elementary school that my son went, and the other one maybe was in middle school, tried to jump in.
Starting point is 01:39:51 So not only was I fighting the mom, I was being jumped by her two children. Goodness. So you lost. You lost. After that, some of my people pulled us apart. But at that point, I was in such a a rage i had to go pop the trunk you know and i popped the trunk got my tire iron off and went to decorating her car uh before that actually before that she got back in her car i went around her side tried to pull her out we went to fighting
Starting point is 01:40:17 again she tried to get back in her car called 911 at that point i was so mad popped the trunk got the tire out and went decorating her car bust out all her windows finally called oh my gosh. So she's going to jail, obviously. OPD got there. I should have known. OPD, very corrupt. I hate them. I try to respect police officers, but OPD makes it very hard. If you know, you know. And they came, didn't want to hear anything I had to say, and then went to talk to her. You know, she was the victim. You know what?
Starting point is 01:41:01 Finally came back to me, and I was like, well, do you want to hear what I have to say? Well, go ahead. I mean, it really doesn't matter. Excuse me? Ended up taking my report. I went to jail.
Starting point is 01:41:11 I got hit with five charges. Damn. This is still going. I was shot with a deadly weapon. Child abuse. Oh my God. All because you lost your life.
Starting point is 01:41:20 And how do you explain that? Child abuse. All because you can't fight. No, no, I put that on my ass but can't fight. No, no. I whipped that mama's ass, but I ain't going to hit the children. And you know you whipped my ass because you're a mugshot.
Starting point is 01:41:34 My baby daddy told me, he was like, when I got your mugshot, you looked so happy and so crazy at the same time. Oh, my gosh. I know your hair was messed up. Yeah, I ended up, your hair was messed up. Smile was still the same. But the thing is, I went to jail for five days. Still cute.
Starting point is 01:41:48 When my dad found out one of my charges, he refused to come get me. Oh my God. I don't blame him. I was so, I don't, I don't,
Starting point is 01:41:56 at this point I don't. I was in jail, you know, how you think about jail, you know, when you think about all those jail movies, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:42:03 I'm like, I gotta, you know, I gotta make sure I survive in here, you know? I'm getting cool with people, I all those jail movies, you know what I'm saying? I'm like, I got to, you know, I got to make sure I survive in here. You know, I'm getting cool with people. I'm doing people hair. You know.
Starting point is 01:42:09 You was only in there five days. I was eight. Five days was like five years. You know what I'm saying? I was in the trenches. You know what I mean? You was in the trenches. You know, I just think, what was it, HBO?
Starting point is 01:42:20 What was it? Locked up? I just think locked up before. So in five days, they had you braiding hair in five days. I was braiding hair. I was making sure. I'd never seen locked up before. So in five days, they had you braiding hair in five days? I was braiding hair. I was making sure people were good. But when they came to call them, you know what I mean? And, you know, when they called my name, I had to go around the yard and let everybody know I was leaving.
Starting point is 01:42:35 You know what I'm saying? They gave me a little party. You know, everybody put their trays up. Now tell me how this story ends because I need to know if this is a good short film or not. Tell me how this story ends, because I need to know if this is a good short film or not. Tell me how this story ends. The story ended with me learning that your anger can really put you in situations where you don't want to be. Single mom, you know, I had aspirations to go to school, and it ended up ruining my life for a moment. I had to go. I was on probation.
Starting point is 01:43:03 I was being railroaded in the court system. No one wanted to hear my plight. And I lost my job. I had to make odds, you know, clean houses, try to go to school.
Starting point is 01:43:23 Depression. I just felt like I made the biggest decision off of emotion. And it just brought us back. But what happened was I researched. There was places. Goodwill had a program where
Starting point is 01:43:37 they allowed people to get their records expunged. You just have to go through a program. And that's what I did. My record is expunged. You just have to go through a program. Okay. And that's what I did. You know, my record is expunged. You know, I'm able to, it didn't affect me. Hopefully, I can get into nursing school soon. That's my goal, my dream. Okay.
Starting point is 01:43:52 And I also want to be able to write a book about, you know, single mother's way to live life. Wow. And navigate life. Because I always felt like life is not about you trying to live in it but navigate through it. All right. Well, what's the moral
Starting point is 01:44:07 of the story? That was a long story. Yeah, it was. The moral of the story? I think the moral of the story is, you know, small people learn from their own mistakes.
Starting point is 01:44:14 Wild people learn from the mistakes of others. So I hope that, you know, y'all listen to some of these stories of people calling in today or even hear our own stories and y'all don't make
Starting point is 01:44:21 those same mistakes that we made. All right. Well, we got rules on the way? Yes. Let's talk about a $200 million deal. Alright, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's time.
Starting point is 01:44:38 She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Alright, well we told you about Gunna getting denied bond on his third attempt last week, but he has filed for bond for a fourth time. So we'll see if this sees anything happen now. So we'll keep you updated on what's happening with Gunna
Starting point is 01:44:57 and his legal team's comments and what they have to say. All right, Charles Barkley has signed a 10-year deal with TNT. Reportedly, that deal is worth over $100 million and could approach $200 million. Well, damn. Yeah, dropping the clues about Charles Barkley. I heard the whole squad sign, though. Shaq and Kenny and Ernie, I heard they all resigned. Yeah, so inside the NBA, they said, you know, he's alongside Ernie Johnson, Shaq, Kenny Smith. They're currently on a $10 million per season contract that's set to expire after the 2024 to 2025 season.
Starting point is 01:45:32 And Charles Barkley said, we're all a big family. Ernie, Kenny and Shaq are brothers to me. And I wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for them and all the amazing people who work on our show. I'm not going to lie, though. This is a life altering deal. And I'm blessed to be able to do live television for a living. Hey, man, that's a great gig. Drop on the Clues Bonds for Inside the NBA.
Starting point is 01:45:49 NBA season starts tonight, right? Yeah, tonight. Now, you know, remember I was telling you they tried to get Charles Barkley to do that deal with Liv Goff, and he didn't do it. He turned it down. Well, that wouldn't have made no sense, even though it would probably have been a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:46:03 But it's like, does Charles Barkley really want to report on golf? He loves basketball. Why? Why quit inside the NBA? Well, they tried it, and he said no. Alright, Cesar Emanuel from VH1 from Black Ink. He recently did an interview with GCI host
Starting point is 01:46:19 Charmaine. She's a former cast member of Black Ink, also in Chicago. And Cesar's from New York. And if you saw, there was a video where he was abusing a dog. And now he's talking about what happened and how he's gotten therapy. Do you regret that mistake that you made? I regret it 100%. Like, sometimes I wish I could take that night back, but, like, you can't take nothing back.
Starting point is 01:46:44 And that's the messed up part about it because in my anger, my two second anger, I lost it and honestly, I was going through a lot. I didn't know how much stuff I was going through until after this dog situation, I got therapy.
Starting point is 01:47:00 I didn't know how, you know what I mean, after being on 10 years, how much loss, how many people died, and I just kept working and kept building. I never really got to, how can you say, heal off anything, you feel me? I write, he goes on to talk about everything that he's lost because of that situation. I done lost loves, I done lost, I mean loved ones, I done lost people that, you know what I mean, really mean something to me.
Starting point is 01:47:27 I done lost fiancés, I done lost a lot of things. Being on TV, sometimes you just get caught up in the machine and you don't really get to mend anything that you're going through. So you're walking around with wounds that's just open. And what you're trying to be a man, saying men ain't supposed to cry, men ain't supposed to do this. Not understanding more damage to yourself than anything. That shouldn't have happened.
Starting point is 01:47:50 I'm more intelligent in that couple of seconds. Basically cost me a lot. Man, stop telling men they can't express emotions, man. Yes, men, you can express emotions, all right? And then when you wonder why you got a generation of sociopaths running around, it's because you keep telling them not to feel nothing. I'm glad that that brother went out and got the healing he deserves, man. All right, now Jay-Z is trying to figure out how much money Duce has really made for Bacardi. And he's suing in order to find out.
Starting point is 01:48:16 He's filed a lawsuit against his partners at Bacardi. He wants to get that information. He wants financial clarity. This is according to TMZ. They got the documents. And so they've been in co-ownership for Duce since 2011. And he wants all the books and records, the location of all warehouses that are storing the Duce barrels, bottles, and accessories. And info regarding Bacardi's physical inventory and its inventory process.
Starting point is 01:48:40 So not sure why these demands are being made. Maybe it's kind of an audit to make sure everything is on the up and up. Hey, it's all business, baby. Happens all the time. Sometimes you got to run some audits, file some lawsuits to see what's really going on. All right. Now, Roy Jones Jr. is looking for somebody to fight him. He needs an opponent.
Starting point is 01:48:59 And he has signed it with Celebrity Boxing. And so he's 53 years old. He recently signed that contract. According to Damon Feldman, who is the founder of Celebrity Boxing, he said, we're so excited. It's our biggest event ever. And we're looking for a big opponent for Roy. What do y'all think?
Starting point is 01:49:18 What do you mean, what do I think? Who could fight Roy Jones Jr. in Celebrity Boxing? His last, I remember he fought Mike Tyson. In Celebrity Boxing? That's what I'm saying. Like, there's no celebrity boxer that should be in the ring with Roy Jones Jr. in celebrity boxing. His last, I remember he fought Mike Tyson. In celebrity boxing? That's what I'm saying. Like, there's no celebrity boxer that should be in the ring with Roy Jones. Even at Roy Jones' age now, muscle memory will cause you to get hurt by Roy Jones. No celebrity should be in the ring with him.
Starting point is 01:49:34 If he wants to do another one of those exhibition matches like he did with Mike Tyson, yeah, something like that. Another boxer, maybe, but not no celebrity. All right, well, that is your rumor reports. That's right. I guess this is the part where they want me to lie to you and tell you that the People's Choice Mix is up next. It is up next. But you know, there's no request.
Starting point is 01:49:53 So it's pointless to even call the number 1-800-585-1051 because Envy's not even here. He left the mix. It's pre-recorded. Okay? Alright. It's the Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy, It's the Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Alright, we got a shout to Ed Sheeran
