Hi, I'm Dani Shapiro, host of the hit podcast, Family Secrets. How would you feel if when you met your biological father for the first time, he didn't even say hello? And what if your past

It's her fault, because Flame calls herself a he, she, we.
Okay. Yes. Shout out to Flame Monroe. That's, she, we. Okay.
Yes.
Shout to Flame.
That's my peoples.
There you go.
Peoples.
That's the moral of the story.
All right.
Good morning.
Well, good morning.
Yesterday was election day.
Yes, it was.
I didn't even vote until like 8.30 at night.
But I did.
The polls closed at 9 in New York.
Yeah, I voted like 6.30.
It was empty when I went to.
There was like two people there. So that was good. At least I was in New York. Yeah, I bought it like 6, 6.30. It was empty when I went to. There was like two people there.
So that was good.
At least I was in and out.
Yeah, I tried to stay up
to watch a lot of the results.
I fell asleep
around halftime though.
Halftime.
Still halftime, right?
Some of them were declared.
Yeah, some of them
was declared.
Some of them
was in the fourth quarter.
It's the fourth quarter now
for some of them.
Stacey Abrams lost, right?
Yeah, she lost.
Stacey Abrams lost.
Wes Moore won in Maryland.
That's a nice one. That's a great one. Hokel won in New York. Kathy Hokelacey Abrams lost Wes Moore won in Maryland that's a nice that's a nice one
that's a great one
Hokel won in New York
Kathy Hokel won
Kathy Hokel won
in New York State
I know my Senator
Hakeem Jeffries
is back in there again
re-elected
I don't know
yeah I don't know
I don't know how a lot
of the Senate races
played out
Dr. Oz lost
oh Dr. Oz did lose
yes he did
Dr. Oz lost
oh okay
that was a key
Senate seat that got
flipped in Pennsylvania Dr. Oz lost it was too, he did. Dr. Oz lost. Oh, okay. That was a key Senate seat that got flipped in Pennsylvania.
Dr. Oz lost.
That's a big deal.
It was too close to call when I went to sleep.
Yeah, no, they said he lost.
Okay.
If there's anything else I remember.
I know Warnock and...
Yeah, Hersha Walker.
And Hersha Walker, they're saying there could potentially be a runoff.
It's about 96% in, but it's within a point.
Wow.
So that could potentially end up being a runoff.
Man, I wonder how Ralph Warnock feels about himself.
Do you blame yourself, or do you blame the people of Georgia?
You gotta blame the people of Georgia.
Who do you look at when you see a situation like that?
People of Georgia.
You know what I mean?
Absolutely.
But I told y'all, Herschel communicates in a very simple way.
And it's not even about how Herschel communicates.
Let's be clear.
It's not about how Herschel the candidate is.
It's the strength of the Republican Party
because the Republican supporters know
it doesn't matter who wins,
they're going to fall in line with the whole party.
That's all they care about.
They just care about getting a seat.
And I'm looking at Arizona too.
We were talking about Republican Carrie Lakenhouse.
She was saying that she wins no matter what,
even if she doesn't.
So we'll see what happens.
Who's winning that now?
It's too close to call.
It's still too close to call.
Oh, okay.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
Now, other question.
Who won the Powerball?
Oh, we're going to talk about that in a second.
I saw that was $20 million this morning, so somebody won.
$2.04 billion.
Oh, they didn't update the sign then.
I passed the Powerball sign this morning.
It said $20 million.
No, no, I mean the lady that won the ticket.
Oh, she won.
She won.
Oh, okay, okay.
I thought you were saying it went up.
No, no, no.
She won.
She won.
How do you know it's a lady?
I don't.
You just said it was a lady.
It was one single ticket?
One single ticket in California.
That ain't fair.
They need to change that.
I said we're going to talk about it.
When the Powerball is that big, one person can't win.
Why not?
The winner hasn't come forward yet, guys.
I wouldn't either.
California.
What part of Cali?
Have you got a family in Cali? I do, actually. California. What part of Cali? We got a family in Cali?
I do, actually.
Can you remain anonymous in Cali?
I don't think so.
I don't think you can.
All right.
Well, you don't know?
We'll find out.
Let's get the show cracking.
Front page news, what we talking about?
Where should we start?
All right.
We'll start with the Powerball jackpot winner, but then we'll also talk about some of these
key elections.
All right.
We'll get to all that next.
Get your ass up!
It's the Breakfast Club. Can we, can you stop that right
fast? I love SZA. Can we just get something a little
You said you want a SZA. It's Wednesday, bro.
She got a new song. Sure, we're not playing
that? No, you know we're
late here. It's still my song, though.
Why you want a SZA? Don't you got a wife?
And she was cuddling all night? You come here to SZA?
You want SZA me? No.
Why you talking about SZA? Cause you just said now you said? You want to scissor me? No. Oh, why are you talking about scissor?
Because you just said now.
You said, I love scissoring.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Stick on.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
What's happening?
How y'all feel out there, man?
Let's get in some front page news.
All right.
Where you want to start?
Well, let's start with that Powerball jackpot that we were just talking about.
A single winning ticket.
$2.04 billion Powerball lottery ticket was sold in Altadena, California.
God bless. So that is the winner of the largest lottery prize ever.
It was sold at a Joe's Service Center.
And there was just one winner.
Congratulations to that person.
The odds of that are 1 in 292.2 million chance.
You win that much money.
Anybody around you should get some money.
Everybody.
You don't know that person's situation.
Now, the jackpot was 1.9 billion,
but grew to 2.04 billion by the time of the drawing.
So there you have it.
Everybody would get money.
Everybody up here, too.
Why not?
That's a lot of money. Why not? You know that situation that person might not like their family they might
like not like none of their friends they might be scorned okay might be might be that person and
they catch well if that person needs a friend i'm there for them by the way i hate you people who do
stuff like that leave a bunch of money for your pets i'm not even joking i don't like y'all well
i really just like the pet you would like it the pet don't even know how do you know what a pet knows okay sure yeah dislike y'all. If you were the pet, you would like it. The pet don't even know.
How do you know what a pet knows?
Okay, sure.
So let me ask you a question.
When was the last time you've been somewhere and seen a pet at the register spending some money?
I've seen that.
I'll knock it off.
I'll just say anything.
My dog is brilliant.
Now, the person who sold the ticket, the owner of the gas station, did get a million dollars for being the retailer who sold the winning ticket.
But that jackpot was so high, they didn't even have the right signage for it.
So instead of
millionaire made here
they had to tape a B
over the sign
to say billionaire made.
Lord have mercy.
I feel like they should've got more.
I thought it was usually
a percentage of what they get.
Maybe not.
You get a million dollars.
That's what they got.
Well, you take it.
Alright, now we're still waiting
to find out who gets
control of Congress.
Right now there's
48 Democrats
and 48 Republicans in the Senate.
Yeah, everything.
House and Senate still hanging the balance.
178 Democrats and 198 Republicans.
So we're still waiting to find out some of those results.
But again, I think there's like a 10-person margin of error.
So that could also change, too.
Did my guy Tim Ryan win in Ohio? Did he win in San Luis?
I think the Republic. Oh no,
J.D. Vance won. Yeah, J.D. Vance won. I saw
that this morning. Who did my guy Tim Ryan know, man?
Let's see. Gretchen Whitmer won
in Michigan, I believe. Yes.
Okay. Alright, so we're
following all of these governor races as well.
And I know
we said this already earlier, but Kathy Hochul won over Lee Zeldin in New York.
I don't think Lee Zeldin has conceded yet, though.
So we'll see what happens there.
And Florida, DeSantis won again.
So easily projected.
Yeah.
Easy money for DeSantis.
In Georgia, Kemp beat Abrams.
And that's the projected winner there.
Maryland, like we said, Wes Moore is the winner.
How much did he win by? Do we know?
So far, all the votes aren't in, but
53.4% compared to her
45.8%.
Alright, so those are some
of those races that we're still keeping an eye on
on certain places too, though.
But yeah, that's the
election so far.
And we'll keep you updated because these results are still coming in this morning.
And that is your Front Page News.
All right, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up right now.
Again, 800-585-1051.
Get it off your chest.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
I'm darling.
I'm darling.
Hey, what you doing, man?
I'm darling.
I'm calling you.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed.
800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Dre from Queens.
Dre from Queens. What part of Queens? South side, man. South side. All right, get it off? Yo, this is Dre from Queens. Dre from Queens.
What part of Queens?
South side, man.
South side.
All right, get it off your chest, bro.
Yo, Tupac, yo, Envy, man, I wanted to shout you out because back in the day, you did a toy drive with that other station.
You came through to a Boys and Girls Club in Queens, and the kid that met you there,
he's grown now.
He was just happy that he got the picture.
He's like, yo, I met him.
I said, yo, if you find the picture you took with him, let me get it. I'm going to send it to him.
So you did one of them good things back in the
day, man. I wanted to shout you out for that.
I'm not trying to show this cardboard thing,
man. They didn't do the live drawing
Monday night. Then Tuesday
afternoon, there was still nothing. Then all of a sudden, they
pop up with these numbers and somebody won.
Sound like a conspiracy to me, man.
Yeah, I'm mad because I lost, but I'm going to
keep it.
It's always a conspiracy when things don't go your way, right?
Always.
Yo, listen, the live drawing did not show.
It says it's technical difficulty.
How is it technical difficulty for ping pong balls with a number on it?
Yeah, I never even knew that they did powerball drawings on Monday night.
That was new to me.
Yeah, they drew numbers. They didn't do it, and then all of a sudden they pop up with these numbers
and somebody won. One person? One person. to me yeah they drew numbers they didn't do it and then all of a sudden they pop up with these numbers that somebody was one person i'm not one person not trusting me what if it was you that one
would you trust it yep yes definitely have a good one brother that's why it's so important to keep
doing those uh toy drives and giving back you never know who you're gonna run into and you
change their life and make them feel good so we we do them in Queens, Patterson, where I invest a lot of money in Atlantic City as well.
That's right.
I know Charlemagne does them in South Carolina.
I know Ye does them in Brooklyn.
So we continue to just give back to our community to make sure people know that we do love them and appreciate them and support them.
Speaking of which, I have my annual turkey giveaway on November 20th.
No, November 19th from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
at Berkeley High School in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.
So, yeah, you know how we get down.
Every year I do my annual turkey giveaway.
So, November 19th, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Berkeley High School.
It's happening.
Yeah, we start now.
It's next Sunday.
We're actually doing a rally, and we raise money to purchase the turkeys,
and then we go to every hood from Philly to Connecticut
and drop off turkeys. We usually do about
30,000 turkeys and we try to just get
everybody involved from each hood so
that starts next Sunday. Shout out to PCNY.
I ain't got to do no 30,000 turkeys.
I come from a small town of
amongst South Carolina.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired? Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
The Waikana tribe owned country.
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.
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 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. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to
doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self-preservation and protection,
it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're
going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth,
gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Like grace.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Get it off your chest.
What's up, man?
Shout out to you guys.
You did everything.
Angela, D, Charlamagne.
Peace, King.
I just have a quick question.
You know, end of the segment, donkey of the day or whatever.
And I know that, you know, a lot of times charlotte man um does the
the mental health one personally when he gave donkey of the day to and it kind of messed the
guy up how do you feel about that you know because i know you preach that like you know mental health
getting healing but you're kind of embarrassing certain people who are the majority of them are
not celebrities so their faces are not um nobody really knows except for the people who are the majority of them are not celebrities so their faces are not um nobody
really knows except for the people who they know you say they think and where they're from
obviously the people who know them know where they live and stuff so it becomes not only an
embarrassment but a target you know and like i said let me say this again okay i am a fan of the
segment you know what i mean but for instance and i'm just give one example i know there's other
callers. That donkey
of the day that you gave earlier this week
with that young kid who tried to rob
the store and said, oh, I was just joking.
Yeah, we know he caught cold feet.
And at the age of 18, 17,
we all did stupid things.
But to give that little kid donkey of the day
was kind of like, you know, he made a mistake
and he caught it. And the good thing he did,
yeah, he deserved to be in trouble. But the fact of the matter is, he had a change of heart. Well, you know, he made a mistake and he caught it. And the good thing he did, yeah, he deserved to be in trouble.
But the fact of the matter is, he had a
change of heart. Well, my brother,
my brother, I totally disagree and I'm going to tell you
why. And I'm going to tell you why I do that segment. You know, that segment
is all about giving people the credit they deserve for being
stupid. And we try to make those teachable
moments. Even though that man caught cold feet,
think about how bad that situation could have went.
He could have got shot by the cashier.
He could have got shot by somebody in the store who
might have wanted to defend the cashier.
He could have got shot by the police who ran up in there.
So what that does, when I call that out,
is I hope deters
other people from making those same kind of
mistakes.
Yeah, absolutely. And by the way,
What do you think about their mental health, though?
Like, you know, embarrassing people that
No, I'm not saying you are. And like I keep saying, I'm a fan. But what do you say about their mental health, though? Like, you know, embarrassing people that, no, I'm not saying you are.
And like I keep saying, I'm a fan.
But what do you say about that?
I don't think I'm embarrassing them.
I think I'm highlighting something that they already did.
They should be embarrassed by what they already did.
All right.
I'm not making these people do these things.

Y'all never did that as a kid when y'all went on the road?
You see a truck and you blow the horn there, blow the horn? You didn't see the truck, Envy.
I know, but you could hear it.
She's in it.
You didn't have to flash us.
Man, you guys are poopy heads.
All right.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, you can hit us up.
Now, we got rumors on the way?
Yes, and Kyrie Irving is still a hot topic.
We'll tell you what he had to say as he sat down with the leader of the Jewish Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt.
Okay, we'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Kyrie Irving.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kyrie Irving. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
All right, well, we've been talking about Kyrie Irving for quite some time now
and the things that he has to complete in order to be able to rejoin the Nets.
You know, he has to issue a verbal apology and condemn the film that he posted, share
the apology on social media, complete sensitivity training, meet with Jewish leaders in the
Brooklyn community, meet with Joe Sy, who's the owner of the Nets, and make a $500,000
donation to anti-hate causes.
He did.
He did a lot of that already, though, right?
He apologized for it.
He condemned some of it.
Well, he did.
He gave the money, but they gave the money back uh he did meet yesterday with the nba commissioner adam silver
and they said it was a very quote productive and understanding visit and according to reports
adam silver was furious with kairi after several opportunities to denounce anti-semitism
and the contents of the film he said he would meet with him in person to address the matter a lot of people are weighing in and saying what they think here is nick cannon
who sat down with jonathan greenblatt the ceo of the anti-defamation league the two of them talked
about the different in the incident and what they both think i can wholeheartedly say i know kairi
irving is not anti-semitic when given the chance to say are you anti-semitic he not, he didn't say no I'm not anti-semitic. And the movie is saying white Jews
invented the Holocaust and six million Jews didn't get killed. Okay I know that
isn't right. Right. There's a gigantic historical record. Jewish people know
when you dehumanize us this way we know what's around the corner. Those are the
tropes that dehumanize Jewish people, the slave masters would bring the one that gets out
of line. So all the other slaves would see lash after lash, show them the power to set an example.
So when we see the six things that Kyrie must do to get his job back, that's dehumanizing.
All right. Now, like I said, a lot of people are weighing in.
So Jalen Brown from the Boston Celtics is also the vice president of the Players Association,
said that he thinks those requirements are way too harsh.
He said after Kyrie meets with Silver, he hopes that the league and the Players Association
can set guidelines to better handle similar situations in the future.
He told the Boston Globe, I don't
believe Kyrie Irving is anti-Semitic. I don't think people in our governing bodies think he's
anti-Semitic. He made a mistake. We understand from an outside perspective how important
sensitivity is to not condone hate speech and not condone anything of that nature.
It's sensitivity to the dialect around that. We don't want to stand up for somebody in order to
not condemn hate speech. But I don't believe Kyrie Irving is anti-semitic and hopefully the nba feels the same way there's an interesting
distinction between when somebody said what somebody says verbally and what somebody posts
as a link on a platform with no description behind it some people will argue there's no
difference and some people will argue there is a difference it's definitely a big difference
and so he said this is uncharted territory for everybody and everybody is trying to figure out the difference
between the two. And
they are just demands, right?
I read yesterday those demands
came from the Nets.
Yeah, it's not from the league. It's from the Nets.
I don't think it's right, though. I mean, he
apologized. He said what he did was wrong and
it should be done with, right? That's empathy, right?
But the fact that you're making him do six things
to get his job back,
I've never seen that before.
Well, I think a lot of that has to do with, you know,
the things Kyrie was doing prior to these comments.
Because I read in Hypebeast yesterday, like,
those demands came from the Nets because the Nets owner is disappointed.
And Hypebeast said the Nets owner is disappointed and fed up with Kyrie's antics.
And so they crafted these demands knowing that Kyrie wouldn't complete all six
and that could subject him to potential outright release.
Yeah, but as an organization,
that just seems crazy to give somebody six things to do
after he apologized and said he was wrong.
And we've never seen this before.
We've seen people do all types of wild stuff.
We've seen white people wear blackface.
They apologize and it seems like
they didn't have six things that they had to do to get back.
They weren't in the NBA.
What are you talking about?
Well, it doesn't matter.
Stop giving false equivalents.
No, but it's their organization that does it.
What organization do these people work for?
Well, according to reports, because the meeting went well yesterday,
they are on the road to figuring out Kyrie coming back and playing.
But a lot of people have weighed in.
Like I said, Kendrick Perkins says that he would tell Kyrie to sit out the rest of the year
if he was running the Nets.
He said, I can't bring Kyrie back into that locker room.
We just heard Kevin Durant speak on the camaraderie.
Guys come together basically in fellowship.
The locker room and the basketball court is the guy's sanctuary.
This is when they come together.
This is their livelihood.
But we've heard other people say, you know, the opposite.
And so, again, like I said, everybody is weighing in on what they think.
And I'm really ready to watch that whole conversation.
And I'm glad Nick Cannon took a break
from populating the world to have it
because Nick's been through it,
so he can really speak to it.
And you cannot have a productive conversation
about other communities
if you're not talking to said community.
So we all need to be talking to each other.
So I can't wait to hear it.
Now, Julius Irving had told TMZ
that he thinks that there's not going to be
any problem with Kyrie Irving playing and continuing to play
because he said team owners are greedy,
and he's going to end up in the league playing for somebody
no matter how toxic he is.
As long as he's young enough to score those buckets
and do what he does, be Kyrie, he's going to have a job.
We can't act like the NBA isn't consistent.
This is pretty consistent with the NBA.
Donald Sterling makes racist comments.
You know, he gets kicked out of the league.
He's got to sell his team.
The owner from the Suns, he makes racist, sexist comments.
He gets suspended for a year.
Now he's got to, you know, sell his team by the end of the year.
So the NBA is really consistent.
I forgot the player who posted a gay slur a few weeks ago on his Instagram.
You know, they're really consistent with how they handle these type of things all across the board.
All right.
Well, that is your rumor reports.
All right.
Front page news.
Next, what are we talking about?
Let's talk about these elections and what's happening in real time.
We're watching as everything is getting updated and the control of Congress is in the balance right now.
We'll tell you where we're at.
All right.
And also next hour, Iceware Vezza
will be joining us. What up, Doe? What up, Detroit?
We're going to be kicking with him in a little bit. Alright, it's
The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Somebody listening to that right now.
Ready to go to work and fight.
You listen to that song, and you're going to go to work,
and you're going to dare somebody to try you.
Goodness gracious.
All right.
We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news.
Where are we starting, Yeezy?
All right.
Well, we're looking at what's happening with these elections right now in the Senate.
48 Democrats, 48 Republicans.
So the control of Congress is still hanging in the balance in the House.
178 Democrats and 199 Republicans.
So still a long road ahead of us.
And one thing is clear, though. I think Republicans thought that it would be a red wave.
That's what they were anticipating as they talked about the economy, violence, all of those things that have been happening.
But according to President Barack Obama's former campaign manager on MSNBC, David Plouffe said this should teach us a lesson that voters always have the last word. So
it's still possible that the Republicans will recapture the House of Representatives. That'll
be the first time since 2017 that happened. But if they do, it still will be narrowly.
And typically, the party that doesn't have the presidency tends to gain ground in the midterms
because people are motivated to vote against the president and the president's supporters
aren't that motivated to vote for more of the same.
So usually extraordinary circumstances will make a party popular enough to avoid what happens during the midterms.
But, you know, it's not looking like it's going to be the wave that they thought that it would be so far as we're watching what's happening.
All right, guys.
Did y'all vote?
Of course we voted.
Just want to make sure,
you know,
some people felt like
they didn't have to do that.
In New York,
Kathy Hochul
looks like she beat
Lee Zeldin.
She'll be the first ever
woman elected
governor of New York.
Now, unfortunately,
in Georgia,
we see that Stacey Adams
did not win there.
Stacey Abrams.
I mean, Stacey Abrams.
Sorry, what did I say?
Stacey Adams.
You said some shoes.
You said some dress shoes.
Brian Kemp did defeat Stacey Abrams.
You said some dress shoes.
That's what you said.
Whatever Ralph Ward not Ward and Herschel Walker Ward, you said loss.
Stacey Adams.
Okay.
All right.
Right now in Georgia, as we're looking at Warnock and Walker, Warnock is winning by
49.2%.
Walker has 48.7% with
96% of the estimated votes in.
I blame Donnell Rollins. Donnell Rollins
said he wanted Herschel Walker to win. He endorsed
Herschel Walker. He said that.
Yes, he did. He endorsed Herschel Walker and he said
that Herschel would be great for comedy.
He said, let's go Herschel. That's exactly what he
said. His exact words verbatim.
Now let's go to what Stacey Abrams
had to say about losing the election.
Tonight I am doing what is clearly the responsible thing.
I am suspending my campaign for governor.
I may no longer be seeking the office of governor,
but I will never stop doing everything in my power
to ensure that the people of Georgia have a voice.
And while I may not have crossed the
finish line, that does not mean we will ever stop running for a better Georgia. We will never stop
running for the truth that we know to be true, for the people we know need to see us, for the
ones who don't know they deserve to stand, let alone run. And tonight, we must be honest, even
though my fight, our fight for the governor's mansion may have come up short, I'm pretty tall.
All right.
Stacey Abrams will be fine.
She'll have significant power in the Democratic Party for at least the next decade.
She's a phenomenal organizer.
She's amazing.
Yeah, Stacey's going to be fine.
Democrat John Fetterman will win the Pennsylvania Senate race against Dr. Oz, flipping that seat and also boosting Democratic hopes of keeping
their majority. So that was one that I think was pretty close that people were concerned about as
well. Abortion rights were on the ballot. I know in Michigan, they still have their governor. And
that was one of the main things that people were concerned about. Now, ex-Trump official is blaming
Donald Trump for holding the Republicans back. Alyssa Farrow Griffin, who served as the White House communications director under Donald Trump,
says that midterm election results show that Republicans have to divorce themselves from Donald Trump if they want to thrive.
And y'all know next week, Donald Trump is supposed to have some major announcement.
So we'll see what that is.
It's supposed to be announcing that he's running for president in 2024.
We'll see.
And, you know, DeSantis did win also.
Blowout.
Yeah.
And so people were saying how that was just a phenomenal performance for him.
Beto O'Rourke lost too, right?
He lost in Texas as well.
And so with DeSantis, though, you know, people are saying that he could potentially be running for president as well.
So what does that mean?
All right.
And that is your front page news.
And we'll keep you guys updated on what's going on with these elections.
Democrat Wes Moore will be the first black governor of Maryland, too.
And Massachusetts elected its first female governor as well.
New York elected its first female governor, too.
Yeah, I started with that.
Kathy Hochul.
She was a governor, but that was after Cuomo
stepped down. She wasn't elected, yeah.
Alright, well that is your front page news.
Now when we come back, Iceware Vezza will be joining
us. Of course, he's from Detroit. What up, Doe? We're gonna
kick it with him when we come back. He has a new deal.
He talks about everything that's going on with him. New music too.
That's right. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
The Black Power 105.1 The Breakfast Club. Power 105.1.
The Breakfast Club.
Your mornings will never be the same.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building, Iceware Vezzo.
What it do, brother?
Man, you look good, brother.
You got a whole lot of new money.
You heard him. I'm trying, brother. You got a whole lot of new money. You heard her.
I'm trying, man.
I just look like it.
How you feeling, though?
Man, I'm feeling good, bro.
Blessed, everything well.
Kids good, old lady good.
You know what I mean?
Absolutely.
Just taking it one day at a time, brother.
That's right.
I'm glad you're up here because since you signed with Quality Control,
I'm like, we got to get Vezo back on the show.
Yeah, I appreciate that, too.
Clearly, it was a very lucrative deal.
Yeah, it was good.
It was good.
We actually did a partnership 50-50.
Okay.
So, you know, that's why, you know, I appreciate that situation.
I appreciate P for, like, you know, letting me approach it as a young boss.
You know what I'm saying?
And making it and just, you know, teaching me the business
and showing me how everything work and allowing me the opportunity to grow my company as well.
So we did a 50-50 partnership.
I did convince you to partner with QC.
What was that conversation like?
I convinced myself, honestly, you know, me and P been building for probably like a year and a half straight without talking no business.
None of that you know we just been vibing and moving around and and growing to understand each other you know and learning each other
mentally you know i mean and i just like how bro rock i like how he operate i like how he think
and you know he ain't he ain't no selfish dude like he won't he won't youngest to really you
know get get everything out of that you know it's bigger than just being
an artist you know p gonna show you how to really really turn up and think for the long run and not
just like a rapper at that moment you know so i felt like it was a perfect situation for me which
it was to me and i think i saw somewhere that uh you said take off take off was the first person
that embraced you as an independent literally man take, man. Takeoff back in like 2015.
Takeoff came to my restaurant.
I had bought a restaurant when I was a kid and a car wash and dispensary.
Takeoff was in Detroit.
He DM'd me like, bro, I'm in your city.
Let's link, tap in.
He pulled up at the restaurant, bro, and he just gave me a lot of game,
like a lot of motivation.
I was fighting a fed case at the time, and he told me, like, bro,
just seeing everything you got going on and how you're moving
and just knowing how young you is right now.
You know, like, bro, you keep doing what you're doing, you're going to be big, bro.
Stick to the music.
You're going to be something when you get out.
Wow.
You know, promote my music and posting my music.
Gave me a verse, all that.
Like, he was the first ever.
Wow.
In real life. verse, all that. Like, he was the first ever. Wow. In real life.
Yeah, the first.
And it came back full circle.
So I'm sure when you connected with QC,
I'm sure he was one of the first people to congratulate you.
Absolutely.
He definitely was.
Even before we, like, locked the deal down, he kind of heard about it.
He like, bro, that's a good move, bro.
I'm proud of you.
You know what I mean?
Keep doing your thing.
You know, it's just an unfortunate situation, like, with Tate.
Because bro really a solid dude.
And, you know, people say that every time somebody pass, you know.
But, like, he genuinely was that.
He was a good brother, like a real good guy.
He had his head on his shoulders.
And one thing about Tate, if he never tried to be somebody or something that he wasn't,
he was always himself, from my understanding, you know, from how I knew him and how I met him.
You know what I mean?
So rest in peace.
Take the black men ever truly escape, man.
Honestly, to an extent.
Yeah.
But for the most part right now, it don't seem like it don't seem like, you know, we're living in a time where everybody got something to prove.
You know know everybody worried
about what the next person think about them and right now to me i think the black man biggest
downfall is they pride it's the pride pride is the pride is our number one downfall you know we let
our pride get in the way and every time i ever use my pride i fail right after that you know i learned that
the hard way so you know nah with with the pride and the ego and throw the money in the play it's
it's just it's too much bro and i think we gotta i don't think we i don't think we we giving ourself
the chance to grow you know we're not letting ourself because we're too focused on worldly things.
You know, I just learned, recently learned that men's number one cause of depression is environmental stress.
Literally, that's the number one cause, environmental stress, meaning everything that we around and everything that we surround ourselves around.
You know, so until we able to kind of evaluate who and what we got around us and change
our our environment we're not gonna allow ourself to grow how do you think having your wife has
actually helped you through so many different things though having a great partner i think is
one of the most supportive things that you can have absolutely my wife played a real like a the
biggest part in my life you know it been you know women mature faster than us and
there's so many times where i thought like foolishly and childishly and she checked me you
know i'm saying like my wife is like my is my backbone she is that same part that that at times
i don't have you know and and i know when i got married god blessed me in a different way you know because
it gave me some type of foundation to to fall back on and something to stand on like you know
i say this all the time like the best the best attribute a woman got is their intuition that's
their other sense like a woman's intuition is is unbelievable you know anytime my wife ever told
me something she ain't never been wrong and i i learned the hard way to not ignore her, to not ignore her feelings,
to not ignore her thoughts and, you know, her views on pretty much everything.
You know, so without my wife, I don't know where I'd be at.
And I genuinely mean that.
Like, she stood tall for me a million times.
And don't it feel good, speaking on that intuition,
don't it feel good when she know you solid,
when she know you doing what you supposed to be doing?
Absolutely.
Because they know when we doing the bulls.
Yeah, they do.
But when we get our shit together, they know that too.
That feels so good.
They feel amazing.
She know me.
Sometimes I feel like she know me more than I know myself.
All right.
You know, she know when I'm about to fuck up before I fuck up.
Yeah.
There ain't no lying to her.
You can't lie to no woman that really know you. You know what i'm about to f**k up before i f**k up yeah there ain't no lying to her you can't lie to no woman that really know you you know i mean that's real like you said it do feel amazing when she know like you know i am trying to grow i am trying to elevate i am
trying to be different and think different as much as i can and she acknowledged that and i get
recognition for that and i feel like i don't do that for her enough you know we'd be so quick i'd
be so quick to you know blame when somebody else f you know, blame when somebody else f*** up.
But when I f*** up, it just be more like, you know, whatever.
But, you know, she understand me and I appreciate that one.
Now, you talked about ego earlier.
And I want to talk to you because you've been in the music game for a long time, like a decade.
Yeah, long time.
Really?
And so was there a period of time when you felt like people didn't believe in you anymore
because you did get locked up and then come back home?
And, you know, sometimes it takes a while to build back up to where you have to be.
Absolutely.
When I got out of prison, I felt like everybody gave up on me.
Well, not everybody, you know, except like Chanel and like my team at the time.
But yeah, like I heard that too.
Like, man, Homes finished it.
He through, you know, went to jail.
There's always too many rappers rapping right now.
How he gonna play it?
But honestly, that shit motivated me.
And it made me go hard.
Like every time I'm told what I'm not able to do,
you know, I do just that, you know,
because only God got any type of say so over my life.
All it took was a hit song, too.
That's all it takes.
They like, oh, now he got one.
Yeah, he got one.
Another one and another one.
So how do you treat the doubters, though?
Like the people you know that f***ed on you,
had something bad to say about your name,
how do you treat them once the success comes?
I treat them good so I can show them that I'm going to never be like them.
That's how you make somebody feel
foolish you get them the opposite energy that they give you you know depending on that energy
you know I mean especially the daughters you heard like the that say suckers and jealous and just
weirdo you know I I let people know I I know how you felt I know what you thought but check it out
you know what you got going, I probably can help you out
with this situation.
You know,
let's try to change each other.
You heard?
Like,
I'll never be like you
because I ain't let nobody
change my energy
or change the way
I view anything
because if they do that,
then I'm just like them.
Right.
You heard?
All right,
we got more with Ice,
with Vezza.
When we come back,
it's the Breakfast Club
Good Morning.

Oh, man.
That was f***ing young.

Hell yeah.
I used to scratch all my Jordans up.

Man, the giant slide was really something to do back then.
Now that's s*** like a f***ing trap.
So is it different now than it was?
Absolutely.
It's terrible.
It's just bad.
It ain't good at all.
They got to redo that.

We got to do better with the giant slide. You might have to do it. That's something that you might have to help renovate. They got to redo that. Detroit, y'all got to redo that. We got to do better with the giant slide.

Turn the giant slide back up.
Because I saw you just, I saw something.
You bought your childhood home or the home you grew up in earlier this year?
Yep, I did.
And I actually bought it and gave it to my mom.
But, you know, I didn't really buy it to just like like, renovate and sell it and make money off of it.
I just got so many memories in there.
And, like, you know, I had a lot of special moments in that house.
So, you know, I just wanted to keep it in our family.
And I bought it and gave it to my mom.
And we're doing everything to get it back up to date.
We're not renting it out.
We're not selling.
We're not doing nothing with it.

and keep it
keep thugging
you heard
let's talk some
Detroit business
I saw Royce
Royce said
that there's a
misunderstanding
between young
Detroit rappers
and Eminem.
How do you feel about that?
I mean, at the end of the day, it is.
You know what I mean?
Like, as a fan, I love Eminem music.
I grew up listening to Eminem when I was a shorty.
And I got real love for Royce.
Like, one thing about Royce, he always show us love.
He always support us.
He always shout us out.
He do everything he can do to help us out.
He really do.
I can't take that away from Royce.
But it is what it is.
Like, we don't know him.
We just don't.
We don't know Holmes.
We don't know him at all.
Like, we don't know him.
I don't know nobody that ever met him, ever seen him.
And I think Royce and Em kind of get the impression that we feel like Holmes owe us something.
But it's not that.
Like, everything ain't always about a favor or money.
And, like, you know, they taking it the wrong way.
We just saying, like, you a legend.
You a GOAT.
Like, you big.
Like, bro, like, where are you?
We want to see you.
Can we get some knowledge?
Can we get some gain?
Can we get some motivation?
Anything.
That's all we asking for.
But we not speaking from a standpoint as like, yeah, bro, gang can we get some motivation anything that's all we're asking for but we're not we're not
speaking from a standpoint as like yeah bro you you gotta sign us we let you you gotta sign it
you owe us some money we won't we're not we're not saying it that way and i believe royce and m
may be taking it that way so it is a big misunderstanding he did do a song though
with the detroit rappers on it it. It was like a compilation.
What was it called? Welcome to Detroit?
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired? Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.
Start your own country.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams.

what? When I get out, I'm signing with, I'm signing with QC. I like how Buddy move. I like how they
rock. If on the outlook and in, it felt like he let the artists do what they want to do and he and he
rocked he they come up with a plan he get behind that plan for them i manifest that i manifested
everything in my life i manifested my wife i told her mom when i was 14 i'm gonna marry her daughter

i married her bought her a home and i had kids by her does her mom remember that she remembered it
she talked about it all the time it ain't even a psych it's just i'm big on manifestation i know
how serious it is how real it is like. Like, I literally do vision boards.
Like, I believe in this stuff.
Like, it's real.
Like, it really works.
You know, you really got to vision what it is you want, and you can get it.
It works like that.
You know, you just got to be a good person at the end of the day, too.
You know, you got to do the right thing.
You got to treat people right.
You got to conduct yourself right, you know, and properly.
But you heard that vision board.
That's for real.
I really manifest everything I did.
I tell you this all the time, man.
These conversations coming from you are so important.
The loving your wife, you know what I mean?
Letting people know your wife is your backbone.
The manifestation conversations.
Me and you have conversations about mental health and how important it is to keep your mental health together.
Like, you got to keep having those conversations, man.
And being an entrepreneur.
I think that's important, too.
You know, having run your own businesses.
Yeah.
I think encouraging people to do that.
No doubt.
Yeah, I think that's important.
I want a lot of more black men to talk more about mental health, you know.
Bro, it's not, it's not, I'm front of the street, bro.
I'm a street guy, ex-street guy.
I have no problem with, you know, speaking on mental health and, you know,
manifestation.
This shit work.
It's not lame, bro.
It's cool.
Y'all can do that.
You know, be yourself.
Like, this stuff really work.
You know, you want to be successful.
You want to be healthy.
You have some type of longevity at whatever
it is you do change some of them ways and read and get some knowledge ain't nothing wrong with
that i think i think somewhere down the line we may be being smart uncool or something you know
i really feel like that like a lame if he got some type of sense and that ain't the case you
know i'm saying ain't how it go like real street guys is the one who try to do everything
in the world to get away from being like that you know you know the guys that ain't really street
you know they do everything in the world to try to be like that they kind of got it backwards you
know it's just a little off you know and as an artist and a rapper i feel like it's it's it's
part of my responsibility you know i'm saying to be 100 and let people know how i'm
really coming mentally how i think i operate whatever and they can they can judge me however
they want to you know they don't know me and there go that part where you know i don't it's not my
job to care what somebody else think about me either you know i'm saying so yeah i think that's
important for every artist to do that and i I know for a fact, majority of successful people and successful artists, not saying that I'm successful.
I'm just saying just period.
Like everybody got some type of sense.
You know, everybody, anybody with some type of longevity, they got some sense.
That's right.
You know, and it's OK to promote that.
You know, we got to push that off.
We got to create a whole new agenda, man.
We got to save our people for real.
It starts with accountability, though. Absolutely. That's why my favorite question to ask brothers nowadays let's
say hey man what do you hate more reading or accountability accountability without a doubt
i'm guilty of it at times yeah all of us are and i know and i know i'm wrong i'm still guilty of
that you know we just are that's how it is you found it you've been back to inception lately
nah i'm gonna go back uh i'm going back in December. Okay, okay, okay.
I really enjoy myself there, bro.
That shit really work.
Man, Holmes had, did you hook up to the brain?
I had brain training.
Oh, yeah.
Bro, he showed me how fast my mind was moving.
I had so much shit in my mind.
Bro, I genuinely needed that, and I'm going to do it again in December.
You ain't did the float tank?
You got to do the float tank. No, I got to do that. You ain't did the float tank? You got to do the float tank.
No, I got to do that.
You got to do the float tank.
I ain't did the float tank.
But that shit fucked me up, bro.
The brain training.
I'm like, man, what?
Like, my mind was, like, really racing, bro.
Like, really racing.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what else I got to get in?
I got to start trying to, I don't know how to meditate.
Like, I ain't never meditated in no shit like that.
I learned two years ago.
Yeah.
Yeah, two years ago. My homegirl, Debbie Brown, taught me how to, like, properly meditate. Like, I ain't never meditated in no shit like that. I learned two years ago. Yeah. Yeah, two years ago.
My homegirl, Debbie Brown, taught me how to, like, properly meditate.
You got to get the beads.
When you get the beads and you get a mantra and you counting your beads and chanting your mantra at the same time, it'll help you out.
Man, I try to meditate.
That shit lasts all of a minute.
But it's a good start, though.
Your mind is racing.
Yeah, my shit is racing, but no.
Have you found a way to slow it down?
Slow your mind down?
I'm still trying to find ways.
Like, I just, I'm a think tank, you know, and sometimes it bothers me, bro.
I got to ask my mind to stop thinking at times.
I just think a lot.
You know, I think I weigh, I think I put a lot of problems on my shoulders, not just
my problems, but other people's as well.
And I think I got a problem with feeling responsible for other people.
You know, things that I haven't caused them or I wasn't involved in at all.
But I just, you know, I just take it on because I understand when somebody may need me.
You know, and I try to be there and, you know, I add they stress on
and my s***,
my mind just,
my s*** be everywhere.
You're empath.
You feel other people's pain.
That's what it is.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I really do.
I do.
I really do.
So I'm trying to figure
that part out, brother.
We're going to get to it,
though.
Now, we know you got
Babyface Ray,
we got 42 Doug,
you.
Who are the new pillars
of the Detroit rap scene
Other than those three
Man so many
Turned up in Detroit right now
We got
Doug
Face
T
Sada

Baby Money
You know what I'm saying
Yeah
Skilla Baby
Turned up
I'm not gonna lie
He's killing it
Okay Skilla Baby I gotta talk about him for a second.
I saw that video of him in the studio.
I don't know, I didn't see that.
You didn't see that?
You know what I'm talking about?
I didn't see that.
Skilla Baby is one of the funniest people.
Like, if you...
Yeah.
Yeah.
He turned.
Him and Sada did lip service together.
They did, yeah.
And that might have been one of the funniest episodes.
Nah, that's hard.
He turned. Gmo State
It's a lot man
It's a lot of artists
Everybody turned
And what about the women
Peezy
Of course Cashdow
Pretty Brea
Jasmine Renee
Nisha Nashae
Still

Like Detroit got a crazy
Music scene
We still got
Choppa Boy
Ray Ray
Tay B He's super lit Like we got a lot of people. We still got Choppa Boy Ray Ray, Tay B.
He's super lit.
Like, we got a lot of people.
And the producers, Ant Beats, hell of a...
O2 Twin, he turnt up.
Ant Beats, hell of a...
The little homie ATG Beats, he a little Indian guy.
That dude fire on the production.
You know, Max Beats.
We got IUR Jetto, Webbo, Chucky, SBR Peasy, Butter.

Detroit really got a good market.
What about Eastside Eggroll?
Oh, Eggroll, that's my guy.
He turned Eggroll funny.
He burnt out.
Yeah, I think he's very.
What's missing?
Because I look at Detroit.
I look at Memphis.
They got the rappers.
I've been saying Memphis and Detroit got the best rappers for the past couple of years.
Why aren't they getting recognized like the Atlantas?
Because Atlanta guys, they kind of of when they come to music they just move a little a little smoother and smarter they know when it's time to do projects together you know what i mean like you
know i don't know sometimes detroit seem like we got that complex it got out it can only be one
you know and that don't make sense because that's
just like saying it's only one dollar left in the entire world you know you know so that's that's
that's what separate us to me that's just that's just my diagnosis of it you know the Atlanta guys
they know when to work together they know when to pull each other up they know when somebody gets
to a certain level everybody just push that person over the hump.
And, you know,
that guy keep pulling people in.
You know, I think it's just,
I think,
and it ain't even really
about no smoke, you know,
because if you really
pay attention to Detroit,
like, we don't really,
whoever got a problem
with who went,
that ain't,
we don't get that
to the rest of the world.
That ain't the rest
of the world business.
We know how to conduct
ourselves behind the scenes
and handle that shit
off the internet, you know, and I got gotta get that to every artist in detroit everybody
move like that and think like that but we just got to figure out how to kind of work together
a little more let's turn detroit up real quick man when the gangster grills coming out december 8th
gangster grills we paint the whole city is on the floor now you want to get in the god bless the six

Ice Web Bezel with the Breakfast Club?
All right.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
That was Iceware Bezo.
Shout out to Bezo.
Salute to Bezo.
Dropping the Clues bombs for Bezo, man.
Him and Drama Gangsta Girls coming when?
He said December 8th, I think he said.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
OK.
All right.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Drake and 21 Savage.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, we've seen Drake and 21 Savage's promotional campaign for her loss for their album.
They've been doing some creative things,
like a tiny desk performance that was fake,
a Howard Stern interview that was fake.
They also did a fake Vogue magazine cover,
and now they're getting sued for using the Vogue name
without permission to promote the album.
According to legal documents,
Condé Nast, which owns Vogue,
said the rapper's promotional campaign
was built entirely on the unauthorized use of Vogue trademarks and false representations.
They would appear on Vogue's next cover with the love and support of longtime editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, according to the complaint that was filed.
They said all of this is false and none of it has been authorized by Condé Nast.
Condé Nast claims Vogue and Anna Wintour have not endorsed her loss in any way and have asked multiple times for all promos using the Vogue name to be taken down, but nothing has been done. God dang! Or triple the defendant's profits from their album and
counterfeit magazine. They also won
punitive damages and an end to
any trademark infringement.
Lord have mercy. I mean, they take their brand seriously.
Yeah, but people have been doing
this for a long time, not necessarily just with
Vogue, but magazine covers, newspaper covers.
You know, people make...
Yeah, but it's Drake.
One of the biggest artists in the world.
And Vogue is a huge publication.
And I don't know that Anna Wintour
is known for being nice like that.
Them party flies they be talking about.
Nobody care about those.
That's Drake.
It was a party fly.
I know that's what you talking about.
You talking about King Magazine probably.
No, I mean, you see it on newspapers.
You see it on other magazines.
What, Vogue covers? I never seen anybody fucking it on newspapers. You see it on other magazines. What, Vogue covers?
I never seen anybody fake a Vogue cover.
Not Vogue, but other magazines.
Yeah, I never seen one.
I mean, like, Tiny Desk didn't have an issue with it.
Howard Stern didn't have an issue with it.
I mean, Howard Stern participated.
And Tiny Desk participated.
And Vogue.
Well, Tiny Desk, no, they said, let's do a real one now.
After they did the...
Oh, they didn't do that on Tiny Desk set?
No, they did a fake Tiny Desk.
And I thought Howard Stern said they chopped up
parts of his previous,
of other interviews.
I don't know if he participated.
Oh, that wasn't Howard
actually participating?
Where you been?
She said that the other day
when she was recording.
I didn't know that.
I thought Howard was in on it.
But I mean,
the whole thing was,
you know, spoofs
of huge platforms.
She said it was fake.
No, I knew the interview was fake.
I knew it wasn't a real Howard Stern, Drake 21 interview,
but I thought Howard participated in the spoof, in the sketch.
Well, Vogue clearly didn't.
Yeah, Vogue didn't.
Clearly not Vogue.
And so now they're suing.
Now, 21 Savage, for his part, he was on Academics Off the Record podcast.
And when asked about whether or not he stands by Drake,
because there's a lot of disses on the album
that people have been responding to,
here's what he had to say.
Anything he had to get off his chest,
you know what I mean?
He was getting this off.
And I wonder what you were thinking,
like I don't know how the sessions were going,
like if he's sending you too,
and you hear that because he's chatting on there.
You know, I'm pointing it out like when
he sent me the song i'm i'm pointing out what i heard like telling him like yeah talk that
you're gassing it i'm behind him whatever he's standing on i'm standing on it too i like what
drake likes so say say what you feel, Nia.
All right, so there you have it.
He's on the album.
He was gassing it up even.
All right, Take Off.
Let's talk about him. His album, The Last Rocket, has returned to the Billboard 200 after his passing.
He's back on there at number 189.
It originally debuted at number four with 49,000 album units sold, equivalent album units sold when it first came out in 2018.
So now it's back there.
And Justin Bieber is going to be performing at his memorial service.
All phones will be confiscated, by the way.
What does that mean?
Is Justin doing a ballad or something?
Yeah, a performance house.
It's crazy.
He must be singing a ballad or something.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, so, I mean, he's—
A dedication, I'm sure
collaborated with
Amigos before
but he is going to
be performing
and it's a
whatever he's doing
whatever is taking place
all of that stuff
is going to be
top secret
so anybody that
does attend
again it's going to
be at the State Farm
Arena in Atlanta
and no phones allowed
and people should
respect that
condolences again
absolutely man
Lord have mercy send a healing energy to the family at takeoff alright now No phones allowed. And people should respect that. Condolences again. Absolutely, man.
Lord have mercy.
Send a healing energy to the family at takeoff.
All right.
Now let's discuss T.I., his son, Messiah.
He's embarking on his own journey as a country music star.
Okay.
Yes.
So Messiah is now doing country music. He's performing under the name Buddy Red.
And so he previously posted a video of himself before his show.
And here's a video of him actually performing.
He said, can you tell?
It's my first live performance.
You all made it feel so good being up there.
I appreciate it very much.
The song I'm playing is out right now.
It's called When I Dream, Buddy Red. He's playing a guitar too, by the way.
Just if you haven't had a chance to see it.
Country music slaps, by the way.
Some of the best stories come from country music, okay?
Best storytelling is in country music.
A lot of hip-hop and to me, country music got the best storytelling.
Here's the actual song, by the way, because he did say it is available streaming.
I know things sound different performed live,
but just so you guys can get a little taste of it.
With the tilt of her head, she asks,
is something wrong?
For at the face of an angel who stared for much too long,
I'm already sad.
Just a matter of time.
I'm just thinking I kind of had a lot on my mind.
With the touch of his hand, I understand she said it was true.
You fool around and watch Buddy Red blow up.
Buddy Red blow up and be the next Hootie out here.
Next Hootie in the blowfish.
I'm not mad at it.
I'm not a country, I don't indulge in country music,
but was there another Buddy Red before?
That name sounds familiar.
I don't know.
I know Buddy Guy.
Was there a Buddy Red or no?
No?
I know Buddy Guy.
I never heard of Buddy Red.
I just don't know. I have to put my man Bobby B Was there a Buddy Red or no? No. I'm no Buddy Guy. I never heard of Buddy Red. I just don't know.
I have to put my man Bobby Bones on the Buddy Red,
see what he think about Buddy Red.
Buddy Red.
There's somebody named Buddy Red Bo.
Buddy Red Bo.
I'm going to text Bobby Bones today and say,
hey, man, got some new music for you.
Tell me what you think of this Buddy Red.
Buddy Red.
It's also a color for a portable radiant heater, Buddy Red.
It makes so much sense, too.
Buddy Ray got to go to Nashville.
He got to go move to Nashville.
And Nashville is white Atlanta, by the way.
So, you know what I mean?
He grew up in black Atlanta.
Now you just go to white Atlanta and, you know, get your music career, Pop.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Well, there you have it.
Buddy Ray, guys.
And that is your-
The Country Music Awards is tonight, too, by the way.
Well, he needs to be there.
Well, maybe Buddy Ray will be there. It's tonight. too, by the way. Well, he needs to be there. My buddy, maybe Buddy Reda, be there.
It's tonight.
You know what?
Okay.
What?
Since you said Nashville, I was just going to bring something up,
but y'all won't probably even know what I'm talking about.
But there's this woman, Takeda.
She used to be signed to Wu-Tang.
I know Takeda.
I don't know her personally, but yeah.
So last time I was in Nashville, I actually ran into her and her daughter,
and they both do country music.
I just thought of that
when you said Nashville
and then country music
and then black people
doing country music.
So that's all.
So shout out to Tequitha.
The 56th annual.
Tequitha.
And her daughter,
who's also RZA's daughter,
she also does country music too
and they actually sound pretty good.
So shout out to Prana Supreme
and Tequitha.
They're actually a group.
And that is your
rumor report. Well, the 56th annual Country
Music Association Awards will be on
tonight. What is that voice? Okay.
What is that voice?
Is that your country voice? I don't know.
It's offensive.
I think Bobby might be hosting it tonight.
Is he? What a friend
you are. Who you giving your donkey to, man?
Do it in your country voice.
Four after the hour.
I can't.
My Invisalign's in it.
I had to put this.
I'm actually on my third Invisalign because you know you got to switch it every two weeks.
You know, nothing more humbling than when you smell your Invisalign, but that's a whole
other story.
Four after the hour, a young man who tried to rob a Louis Vuitton store needs to come
to the front of the congregation.
They haven't released his name because he's only 17, but we'll discuss.
Did you see the video? I did. Hilarious. I wanted to play a game, but front of the congregation. They haven't released his name because he's only 17, but we'll discuss. Did you see the video?
I did.
Hilarious.
I wanted to play a game, but I seen the video.
I don't even know what race he is.
Oh, right, because you can't really tell.
No.
All right, great.
All right, we'll get to it next.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Like a donkey.
Hee-haw, bitch.
Hee-haw.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
I'm a big boy.
I can take it.
If you feel I deserve it, ain't no big deal. I know Char Charlamagne Tha God gonna have some funny sweet s*** out his mouth.
If I say something you may not agree with, it doesn't mean I'm mean.
Who's getting that donkey?
That donkey.
That donkey.
Donkey.
Donkey.
Donkey.
Donkey of the day right there.
It's a breakfast club, bitches.
You can call me the donkey of the day, but like, I mean no harm.
Yes, donkey of the day for Wednesday, November 9th.
Let me make sure that's the date.
I be getting my dates wrong.
I'm getting old, y'all.
Wednesday, November 9th goes to a young 17-year-old man from Bellevue, Washington.
Okay, he's 17 years old, so his name hasn't been released yet.
But, you know, we had an interesting call this morning during Tell Him Why You're Mad,
Get It Off Your Chest, and a brother called and questioned, you know,
do I ever think about the embarrassment I cause people when I do Donkey of the Day?
Let's listen, right?
You're kind of embarrassing certain people who are, the majority of them are not celebrities.
So their faces are not, nobody really knows except for the people who they know.
You say they think and where they're from.
Obviously, the people who know them know where they live and stuff.
So it becomes not only an embarrassment, but a target.
You know, he also continued in the conversation.
The example he used as embarrassing was Brandon McMahon,
a young man who I gave Don Quixote a day too early this week,
who decided to rob a vape store with a pistol.
And in the middle of doing it, he said he was playing.
Now, what type of world do we live in that I would be asked
do I feel like I'm embarrassing people when they do stuff like that?
Seems to me you're more worried
about me bringing attention
to these situations
than you are about
the young people
who are committing these crimes.
This is why I be asking
a simple question
and I hate to ask it
in front of mixed company
but I want y'all
to answer this
amongst yourselves
when you're out
and about today.
Make sure you quote me,
Charlemagne Tha God,
Brother Lenard,
and Uncle Charla
posing a simple question
this morning.
What do niggas hate
more, reading or accountability?
I'm trying not to say the N-word
anymore, but this is a question for us. What do
niggas hate more, reading or accountability?
Discuss amongst yourselves.
We really are in the most apolitical,
anti-intellectual, blame everyone but
you for your BS era ever.
And today's donkey has proven that point because
in Bellevue, Washington,
this 17-year-old man and a couple of his friends
decided to go in the Louis Vuitton store
and steal.
They wanted the boost, all right?
We've seen these videos online
where these kids are just running up
in these designer stores and taking stuff.
Well, same rules applied in this situation, all right?
Two people walk in Louis Vuitton
and just started snatching handbags from the wall
and, you know, pulling them from their security tags.
And then they just walked out.
Let me tell you something.
When I was this age, I did brainless crimes like this, too.
I never had no designer store, but there used to be a convenience store called Scotchman in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.
I used to walk in there, grab a 12 pack of Michelob light or some Bud Ice and walk right out like I own the place.
I didn't even try to conceal what I steal.
All right. So I overstand the stupidity of it all.
But when I would steal like this, I knew where the door was.
This young man, after his two friends just walked out the front door,
this young man, he didn't do what they did.
No, this young man has watched one too many movies,
one too many TV shows,
because this young man tried to make a run for it by jumping through a window.
I don't mean jumping jumping through a window. Okay.
I don't mean jumping through an open window.
I'm talking about the big,
huge glass joints that you see in stores,
right?
That in movies,
people just be getting thrown to,
I just drive cars through a running bus through,
but this young man realized quite quickly that this ain't a movie dog.
All right.
For the record,
movies use breakaway glass.
All right?
They're used by stunt professionals for safety reasons.
He tried to run and slam through this window
and knocked his stupid ass unconscious.
All right?
Y'all have to go watch this video.
I've seen it like seven times.
Sleep.
Night, night.
Freddy Krueger coming to see you.
Deep REM sleep, which you probably needed.
Because when you're making decisions like this, you haven't slept that good in a while see you deep REM sleep which you probably need it because when
you're making decisions like this you haven't slept that good in a while and deep REM sleep
is good for your brain it restores your brain and is good for your memory and learning and you need
to remember this moment forever sir and learn from it all right because you need not repeat it and
this is why i do donkey of the day because these are all teachable moments we all have to learn
from the mistakes of others.
Okay, what's that quote?
Smart people learn from their own mistakes.
Wise people learn from the mistakes of others.
If y'all not learning from these people's mistakes, I don't know what to tell you.
Now, after this 17-year-old decided to take a self-inflicted nap in the Louis store,
a security guard jogged over, kneeled on the team's back, and handcuffed him.
The 17-year-old boy was part of a retail theft ring,
and when they got him,
he was said to be stealing $18,000 in items.
No way I'm more wrong for shedding light on the crime he committed
than he is for committing the crime.
And also, you need to do yourself a favor, please,
and go watch this video,
because this young man should be embarrassed.
Because this is embarrassing.
All right?
Once again, what do niggas hate more?
Reading or accountability?
I provide accountability.
So please give this young 17-year-old unidentified teen the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's.
Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey
of the day.
Yee-haw.
Yee-haw.
Mm-mm-mm-mm.
Aw.
You gotta watch the video.
Hilarious.
Mm-hmm.
Hilarious.
Mm-mm-mm.
All right.
Thank you for that donkey today.
Up next, ask Yee.
800-585-1051
if you need relationship advice or any type of
advice, call Yee right now.
Again, 800-585-1051.
Phone lines are wide open.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Come on.
Need relationship advice?
Need personal advice?
Just need real advice.
Call up now for ASCII.
Eat the bread.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for ASCII.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, yes.
My name is Angel, and I'm from Houston.
Hey, Angel from Houston.
What's your question for Yeezy?
My question is, how can I be able to trust a woman overall,
again, after being cheated on multiple times by multiple women?
All right, so are you in a situation right now
where you're trying to trust someone,
or are you just concerned about being able to ever date again?
Well, right now, I have a few girls trying to, you know, take it farther than the French states.
But I myself don't feel comfortable, you know, trusting them 100%.
So my question to you is how do I open myself up again to let myself be vulnerable again?
I think that it's a difficult thing because we
learn from our past experiences and a lot
of times we take that baggage into new
relationships. But
everything should be a clean slate.
It should be
I trust you until
I don't. Now some people lead with I don't trust
you until you earn it.
And it feels like that's where you're coming from.
And I also feel like we have
to know our intuition. When you were
cheated on before, were you
completely caught off guard or did you have
some type of intuition
that told you this was going on?
Well, one of the
situations, you know, I love it when a girl
asks me for my cell phone
because then I get to check her
cell phone. And what people don't realize
is that Snapchat and Instagram
saves your data and you can request your data
even if you've deleted everything.
So while they're going through my phone, I'm requesting
their deleted data and
by the time they're done checking my phone
and I've already seen all
their deleted messages.
This is no way to be
in a relationship where you're checking each other's phones
because you don't trust each other.
You're looking at what was deleted.
Sometimes you're seeing things
that might've happened before you,
or maybe you just started a relationship
and there's some other things that have to get cut off
that haven't gotten completely cut off
because you guys aren't in a committed relationship yet.
I mean, that's a lot to go through.
The fact, and can you be trusted is another question.
You said you're talking to multiple different women. Are you the type of person when you're in a relationship, you're all in and you don't stray?
Oh, yes, yes, of course. You know, as a man, I feel like I gotta be loyal
when I'm with a woman or living with a woman, you know? But when I'm single, I'm
single, you know? But I have been cheated on in every relationship
and I don't know if it's because I'm just young and these girls are just young and reckless,
but I haven't had not one girl be loyal.
And it's also the kind of women that you might be attracted to as well.
Because sometimes when you're young, you are attracted to those women that are.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
So what are you saying yeah about?
I mean,
you can't really know how
a person is set up by just looking at them, you know?
You know, not everything that glitters is gold.
So, I do start
my relationships, you know, with happy
expectations, you know, and, you know, healthy
thoughts and, you know, let me trust her,
but they always seem to mess it up.
Because sometimes guys do go after those women
that everybody's going after, right?
That they also like because they're a little elusive,
you know, and that might feel attractive,
but then there's a lot that comes with that too.
Yeah, I guess I should just keep trying.
That's what you're saying.
No, what I'm saying is think about,
A, always lead by example.
So if what you want is somebody that's loyal and committed to you,
I don't think that giving up your phone and going through a person's phone
is a way to try to establish that.
Yeah, yeah.
And so I feel like that already sets a bad taste in everybody's mouth
because basically you're establishing the fact that we don't trust each other.
And so let's do these things.
Let me look through your deleted messages.
Now that I don't trust you, how am I supposed to give you my all?
When you go into a relationship,
just understand that you being open and honest
should lead to the other person being open and honest
and can you handle the truth
and do you want to hear it?
Also think about the people that you're attracting
and who you like, right?
Because sometimes you do like those women
that are more challenging,
who might be the ones that are,
how do you
meet them?
Are you meeting them on social media?
Are you meeting them out?
Are they introductions from friends?
Are these referrals?
How are you meeting these women?
It varies, you know, it could be at the supermarket, it could be at Starbucks, it could be at the
gas station, it could be on Instagram, you know.
Because a woman can also tell if you're not all in and she's not going to sacrifice and
stop talking to other people if I don't feel like he's all into me either.
So I'm not going to act like I'm in a committed relationship if he's doing other things.
And it does take a while to establish trust.
It does take a period of time of us dating and then being like, I'm cutting off everything.
All right.
I'm cutting off everything, too.
We're going to be together.
And sometimes when you don't trust somebody,
they might look at you like,
what is he doing?
Yeah.
And I also honestly go by this.
What's the worst thing that could happen,
right?
You have to really make that effort.
The worst thing that could happen is this person cheated on me.
I found out and, you know,
at least I gave it my all,
but there's nothing worse than when you don't at least make the effort to give your all to a relationship and what it could have been, you know, at least I gave it my all. But there's nothing worse than when you don't at least make the effort to give your all to a relationship and what it could have been.
You know, all you can control is how you act and what your behavior is.
You can't control what anybody else does, but you can still be the person that you know you want somebody, how you want somebody to treat you.
So I do believe in leading by example.
I do believe for myself, unless you give me a reason not to trust you, I'm going to lead with, OK, I'm going to give you. So I do believe in leading by example. I do believe for myself,
unless you give me a reason not to trust you,
I'm going to lead with,
okay, I'm going to give you
an opportunity.
This is an open book.
But I do also believe my intuition.
If my intuition is telling me
something's going on,
something's not right,
I don't need to check your phone
to find that out.
Yeah, I understand that
because how it started
with one of them is
I had a dream she was cheating on me.
And I came to ask her.
And, you know, she was a woman in love.
And she was like, yeah, I slept with him.
And I'm like, I'm only asking you because I dreamed about it.
But you're confessing.
So I'll leave you with the intuition part.
So, yeah.
Well, thank you so much for your time, Angela.
No problem.
Good luck.
And like you said, you're young so
don't put too much on yourself.
Alright, Ask Yee, 800-585-1051
if you need relationship advice
or any type of advice, hit Yee now.
It's The Breakfast Club, good morning.
Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
It's Ask Yee.
Morning everybody, it's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning, good morning.
I want to stay anonymous because I'm a little embarrassed
and I know she's listening right now.
Okay, anonymous.
What's your question for Yee?
All right, so what's going on is I've been talking to this girl
since June and we've been doing everything.
But I want to be in a relationship with her and she tells me no she uh all she wanted to fix she don't want nothing else
but I really want to be with her and so like I'm just trying to figure out what I got to do
what do I have to do well if somebody doesn't want to be with you you can't force them or convince
them to do that it's up now she told you what she wants you have to decide how you want to be with you, you can't force them or convince them to do that. Now she told you what she wants.
You have to decide how you want to move forward.
If you want a relationship and she doesn't, but you're content with you guys just having
sex and sleeping together, you have to ask yourself, can you handle that?
I mean, maybe one day she'll come around.
Maybe she won't.
But understand that she's being open and honest with you.
Why doesn't she want to be with you?
I don't know. I guess it's just hitting i don't know i really couldn't tell like she just said this is just just once right now okay and if you're and it's okay if you're not okay with that
i don't think that you should settle for what somebody gives you if you know what it is that
you want and sometimes the best way for somebody to realize I don't want to lose him in my life
is for that person to lose you and realize I don't know what I had until it was gone.
Or you could step away and, you know, she could really mean it.
She doesn't want to be with you, but she is being honest.
And you have to believe when somebody tells you this is not what I want.
If you make the decision to continue having sex with her, that's on you.
That's a choice that you made.
And it's okay if you do want to just continue to be with her
and sleep with her,
but if you're going to get your feelings involved
and your feelings are going to be hurt,
it might not be the best idea for you.
Okay, okay.
What do you think you want to do?
I love sex, so I ain't about to just let that go,
but I'm in a pickle, you feel me?
Yeah, she likes your pickle. I probably just ride it out until I find something new, but I don in a pickle, you feel me? Yeah, she likes your pickle.
I'm in a pickle until I find something new, but I don't want to find nothing new.
Man, that is so pause-worthy.
I'm in a pickle.
I'm going to ride this pickle out and tell.
Is she seeing other people?
I ain't riding no pickles.
I assume she's seeing other people, too.
Shut up, man.
I hope not, but it could be.
It could be going on.
Well, just be safe. I do want to but it could be. It could be going on. Well, just be safe.
I do want to give you that advice.
So just know she could potentially be sleeping with other people.
So protect yourself.
Good luck.
Protect your pickle.
For sure, y'all.
Okay.
Don't cry.
He sounds so sad.
Listen, I don't know why he was embarrassed to give his name for that,
but I think guys always feel like women want to be in a relationship.
And sometimes we do just want sex.
My goodness.
Ask E.
800-585-1051.
Now you got rumors on the way?
Yes.
And let's talk about relationships more.
DJ Mustard, his estranged wife, is talking about signing a prenup and shooting with him in the gym,
but walking away from everything.
She's being honest about their breakup.
All right, we'll get into that next.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Great.
You're not supposed to turn on the mics until she says that.
Well, don't turn it on.
They always wait until the last minute to turn mine on
because they know I'm saying something.
We absolutely. I usually turn your mic last minute to turn mine on. Because they know I'm saying something I ain't got no reason for.
Absolutely.
I usually turn your mic on just because of that reason.
See?
See?
I hate you.
All right, let's get to the room.
What's wrong with you, man?
Amazing.
Let's get to the room.
Let's talk Gilly.
I hate you.
She's spilling the tea.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
All right.
Well, Gilly was leaving the airport in Dallas and he got stopped.
He perceived this to be racial profiling as he was an American Airlines flight and a TSA agent.
Who, by the way, I didn't realize that was a TSA agent.
I thought that was one of those secret people that be on the plane.
What do they call them, the marshals, the air marshals?
Yeah, the air marshals.
The dude with the cowboy hat and the cowboy boots?
Yeah, I was like, that's just a TSA agent.
I don't think he was nobody.
Hasn't been confirmed that he's been anybody?
I don't know.
I haven't seen no identification on him or anything.
He had the Herschel Walker Texas Ranger badge.
He had the big-ass cowboy hat.
Yeah, I haven't seen identification.
And they don't accost you like that coming off no flight
Now he said playing full of white folks leaving Dallas and the only black man is asked as he have illegal narcotics in his bag
Here's what happened You don't lie to the camera. You walked up on pick me up
You search your pick me up what what I'm probably the richest person on this plane
Smell like marijuana
You talking to me.
Be serious.
You smell like marijuana.
Picked the wrong one today, huh?
And Gilly and Wallo can't help but be comedy, man. Even in serious situations, man.
Drop one of the clues, man, for Gilly and Wallo.
I think Gilly got got, though.
I don't think that person was nobody.
Yeah, he just came up to him.
I don't think he was nobody.
Because he didn't have no type of uniform.
He had to sit on a bag. And he told nobody. He didn't have no type of uniform.
And he told Gilly to search his own bag?
No, he said, you searched your own bag. You searched your own bag.
Because I guess Gilly started pulling stuff out.
He was like, you searched your own bag.
That's crazy.
Yeah, I wouldn't have searched no bag.
He just had a badge on.
That guy was nobody.
Gilly said, you know, you want to look in here?
You asked me, could you search my bag?
So I searched it for you.
So I don't know who that guy was.
But Dallas is serious when it comes to that. Remember Amon
Shumpert got arrested, what, a month ago?
Two months ago? Out in Dallas? Yeah, but that was going
through actual airport security.
He was going through the airport security. But you know what they do happen
right before you go on a plane, they usually pull you to the side.
The guy had on a backpack and everything. They usually pull you to the side
and they pull you out and they check your bags. That happened to me once before.
How many times has Gilly been pulled over that he started searching
himself?
How many times has Gilly been pulled over that he started searching himself? How many times has Gilly been pulled over in his life that he started searching himself?
But don't TSA agents have to wear some type of uniform?
Gilly, I know the procedure.
A guy on a backpack, a cowboy hat, a plaid shirt.
You're just a Dallas Cowboy fan, it seems like.
Gilly said, I know the procedure.
I have the right to remain silent.
The guy said, you searched your own back.
I didn't search it.
Because that's what you told me to.
Salute my God, Gilley.
Well, since y'all talked about Dallas and the Cowboys,
Odell Beckham Jr., maybe he's going to get picked up by the Cowboys.
December, he said, maybe.
Yeah, so, you know, Jerry Jones has stepped in,
and he was talking to 105.3, the fan in Dallas.
He made it very clear he would love to have
OBJ on the roster. He said
he is someone we have all the appreciation in the world
for what he is as a competitor
and know that the Cowboys star on the helmet when he puts it
on can look pretty good. Yeah, Jerry hit me
about that. Yo, shut up. Jerry hit you about that.
No, no, he didn't. No, he didn't.
No, him and Dak hit me. I approved it. Shut up.
They did. They DM'd me. I approved it.
Shout out to Odell, man. I want Odell to win, man.
I love what he did with the Giants.
Oh, so you're admitting that if he goes to the Cowboys, we'll win.
There you go.
Drop on the clue box.
I didn't say that.
I said shout out to Odell.
I love what he did with the Giants.
Because you want him to win.
I want him to get signed with a team.
It just so happens if it's the Dallas Cowboys.
But I just want him to do well.
I'll tell you what he said.
He said whether it's Buffalo, whether it was Green Bay calling the Cowboys,
reunion with the Giants, I want to be able to spill my last,
not saying I only got three or four seasons left,
but these next three or four years into something where I can buy a home,
like I can call this place home.
I'm tired of living out of two-week suitcases.
I've done the rock and roll life.
Wow.
Mm-hmm.
All right, now, speaking of sports,
Jay-Z was spotted having dinner with Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder and CEO, earlier this week.
And that has fueled those rumors about them purchasing the NFL's Washington Commanders.
So they were at Horses in L.A. on Monday night and word got out they have a mutual interest in putting a bid for the team that's now owned by Daniel Snyder.
They said the meeting was pretty important because the restaurant is closed on a Monday
so they were there. That's how you
know Hov is really about that pay-per-view because he's a
Dallas Cowboys fan. Ain't no way in hell
I'm spending no money on the Washington
Commanders. It's an investment
though. I know. Like Hov was
a Knicks fan and then he did the whole Brooklyn Nets thing.
I get it. I get it.
A good investment is a good investment. It would be nasty
to see him in a rescue.
A team for sale and you have an opportunity.
All right.
Now, SZA, she just posted a teaser.
She said, happy birthday to me.
Clock starts now.
So happy belated birthday because this was yesterday.
And here's a teaser that she put up.

Like she want to be settled down.
She want to be booed up now.
What happened to the weekend, SZA?
Huh?
What happened to my man is my man is your man.
Her is her man too.
What happened to all that?
I mean, she hates him now.
Huh?
Six years later, things have changed, huh?
Yeah, she hates him now.
You heard it.
Okay.
All right.
If you're wondering if I hate you.
