Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

And this is The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Good morning, USA. day off from work today to celebrate. Well, you know what? She's smart because I wish I had took the day off too. And you know why I wish I had took the day off?
Because it's the day after iHeartRadio.
That's right. And we knew
what type of situation we would
be in on Monday morning because
of the iHeartRadio Music Festival.
But we still chose to come to work. Well, really
all day yesterday was the day off.
Nah, bro. Because it was Friday and Saturday. That's a travel day.
That's a travel day. That's a travel day.
That's a long flight from Vegas.
I need another 24 hours just to recover.
Absolutely.
24 hours to do nothing.
I'm not going to lie to you.
I'm beat right now.
I'm hurt and beat.
Well, shout out to Paris who was with me.
She missed her flight yesterday morning.
I had a 6 a.m. flight back.
How'd she miss the flight?
Because y'all went straight from the club to the airport.
Yeah, we went back to the rooms.
She went to her room.
I went to my room to gather our stuff together.
And Paris said to herself, I'm going to take
10 minutes to take a nap like we all do
sometimes. And that 10 minutes, you
look up and it's an hour. And you're like, oh my God.
So why didn't you wake up? I don't have the key to
her room. I was calling her, calling her room.
Did you go downstairs and have them call the room?
Yeah, I called the room. What difference does it make?
And did you knock on the door?
Yeah, all of that. Paris was in the
club drinking, man. She was drunk. I don't even hardly drink like that Yeah, all of that. Paris was in the club drinking, man.
She was drunk.
I don't even hardly drink like that no more,
so that night I was really... Now, you were twisted.
You were twisted.
Right, so she was in the airport till 4.30
after that 6 a.m. flight
waiting for another flight to get back.
So she made it by, like, 1 a.m.
Damn it, man.
I was in the club with a flask.
You know why I was in the club with a flask?
Why?
Because we was drinking Casa Dragones.
Casa Dragones.
It's a tequila.
Tequila.
And I asked Luke to Bob Pittman, dropped one of the clues behind for Bob Pittman.
I tried a new grade of it.
It was like a higher grade than the one we normally drink.
And so he introduced me to the founder and owner.
And they reached into their bag and gave me a flask. Full of it.
So, yeah, that did me off.
Oh, okay.
Yes.
And we had a great time.
But besides all the drinking, the performances were amazing.
Shout out to Usher.
Usher killed it.
He brought out Ludacris Little John.
Had a great show.
Yeah.
Listen, our festival was amazing.
We needed more black representation, though.
There wasn't enough hip-hop artists out there for my liking.
Well, you get one a day.
You got Usher on Saturday and you got Drake on Friday.
Yeah, but come on.
We need a little bit more.
Hip-hop is pop culture now.
Latinos got Pitbull.
It was it.
That's all you're going to get, Charlamagne.
The whole Latinos got Pitbull, Ariana Grande, John Stamos was there.
Ain't he Latino?
Yeah, Stamos, I think, is Latino.
I thought he was Italian.
What is he? He's Greek. Oh, he's Greek. Okay. think, is Latino. I thought he was Italian. Oh, what is he?
He's Greek.
Oh, he's Greek.
Okay.
I don't know why I thought he was Spanish, Latino.
John Stamos.
I don't know.
John Stamos.
It's probably just the way you're pronouncing it.
And then they had Bryson Tiller.
They had Tinashe.
The daytime festival stage was definitely the black stage.
Yeah, so, I mean, we got one.
Bryson Tiller, Jeremiah, Tinashe.
We used to get two.
Now it's one.
You know, I don't know what's going on.
We used to get at least two a day.
I know, but I don't know.
I don't know.
But it was a good show still.
It was still a great show.
And I enjoy watching other genres of music, too.
I do, too, but they got to stop this Britney Spears thing.
Okay?
Listen, white people, stop trying to push Britney Spears on us.
We don't keep trying to push Ciara on y'all.
Britney be selling out shows in Vegas.
You can't compare Britney to Ciara, and Britney
sells out shows in Vegas. That's great.
Did you see her perform? Yes, I did.
Sadly, again, for the second
time this year, first time with the VMAs,
and watching Britney Spears perform is like
watching trailers for Tom Cruise action movies.
You're like, okay, I'm so tired of this.
That's over. Okay, all right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Well, I had a good time.
I had a good time, too.
Well, we have some unfortunate news over the weekend.
What, Britney Spears performed?
Miami Marlins, Jose Fernandez,
and an unfortunate accident that happened with him.
Also, we'll give you an update
on the Washington Mall shooting suspect.
Oh, yeah, and Arnold Palmer passed away.
Yeah.
Golf legend. We'll tell you all about it when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The passed away. Yeah. Golf legend.
We'll tell you all about it when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Come on in.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, in football, the Packers beat the Lions.
The Bills beat the Cardinals.
The Raiders beat the Titans.
The Dolphins beat the Browns in overtime.
The Ravens beat the Jaguars.
The Broncos beat the Bengals.
The Vikings beat the Panthers.
The Giants
lost. The Giants lost?
They beat themselves. The Giants
lost? They beat themselves.
The Giants lost to the Redskins and
Odell Beckham lost to that damn soccer goal
he hit or whatever that was.
That net definitely hit him in the head.
We lost ourselves. We beat ourselves that game.
And he lost to the National Anthem.
Why the hell was Odell Beckham Jr. crying?
I don't know.
Huh?
I don't know.
Why was he crying at the beginning of the game?
Wasn't he crying during the National Anthem?
I don't know what he was crying for.
Well, did something hit him on the head or something?
That was later in the game.
Oh, I thought maybe he cried because he got hit in the head.
No, that definitely hurt, though.
Odell was crying during the National Anthem because he was like,
all these guys on their knees and they're not for me.
Shut up, man.
The Rams beat the Bucs.
Seahawks beat the 49ers.
Colts beat the Chargers.
Eagles beat the Steelers.
And the Falcons play the Saints tonight
in Monday Night Football.
And you sound like you're missing one.
No, I said it once.
You're missing a very important one
because my Dallas Cowboys
watched the Chicago Bears 31-17
drop one of Clues' bombs for the Dallas Cowboys, baby.
I saw 50 was at the game.
Well, we're going to stay humble.
That's humble?
I just told y'all to bet on the young boys.
That's all I've been saying since the preseason.
Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott, God bless those boys.
Yeah, 50 was at the game.
We had an effing bar there.
Also, Jay-Z and Beyonce was at the game as well.
Now let's talk about what happened in sports,
some tragic stuff that happened in sports.
Yes, Miami Marlins' Jose Fernandez was killed in a boating accident,
very tragic accident.
He was one of three men that were killed.
They were waiting to release the other names
because they wanted to notify their relatives.
But one of them was the son of a Miami-Dade police detective.
Now they're saying that speed is what they think is a factor in that accident
because of the impact with the jetty.
The boat was upside down off of Miami Beach, and two of the victims were found dead under the vessel.
One was found in the water.
None of them were wearing a life vest.
They said there was no evidence of any alcohol or illegal drug use.
That's how I thought they said it hit rocks or something, right?
Yeah, you can see.
They actually have pictures of the wreck.
You can see the boat upside down.
Those are the rocks it hit?
I thought it was some rocks that it couldn't see.
You could see clearly those rocks.
I thought those boats have all types of senses and types of things where you can't necessarily hit those rocks.
Well, they're saying it was because of the speed.
I don't know exactly what happened, but they do feel that speed was the reason why that impact was so rough.
And that's where everything was. So they did announce that the game so rough and how fair everything was.
So they did announce that the game yesterday against the Atlanta Braves was canceled.
God bless that brother.
He had a child on the way.
Very, very tragic situation.
He's only 24 years old.
Amazing pitcher, yeah.
Amazing person.
I hope they still honor that contract he had with the Marlins,
at least for the family's sake, you know?
Yeah.
Now let's talk about Arnold Palmer.
Well, a golfing legend, Arnold Palmer, not just a drink,
but he's also a golfing legend, died Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh.
His longtime spokesman and friend, Doc Giffen, told ESPN he was 87 years old.
He died of complications from heart problems.
Now he started his professional career back in 1954.
He went on to win 62 titles on the PGA Tour, which is the fifth most of all
time. They also say that he was the one that was really a pioneer in sports marketing,
and he did pave the way for a lot of other athletes to get millions from endorsements.
Listen, man, Arnold Palmer gets the credit for inventing the half and half, which is iced tea
and lemonade. Yes, I love Arnold Palmer. But how can we prove that he actually invented this drink?
Because I'm going to be honest with you, that sounds like something somebody black in the hood
created because they didn't have enough
lemonade for a full glass and only had enough tea
for a half a glass, so they just combined the two.
Well, that's why he's a pioneer
in sports marketing. Why? Because he stole? He's one of
the first thieves? You just made that whole story
up. You don't even know if that's true.
How do we know if Arnold Palmer made up
lemonade? Nobody said he made it up.
He marketed the hell out of it.
He only made-
They said he only made like 1.8 million playing golf.
Listen, man.
And the rest he just made just buying golf courses and-
Stealing from the hood.
You and the half and half.
How can you just say he did that?
He don't know.
I'm going to tell you.
You want to know how the drink came about?
Do you want to know?
Yes.
Tell me how.
All right.
So he was in a restaurant and he ordered the drink.
That was his favorite concoction at the time.
And another woman overheard him and said she would have the same thing.
And that's how the whole thing started.
So nobody was saying he's the first person that did it.
But that's what happened.
He just marketed the hell out of it.
That's just like when Burger King was selling those hamburgers with the fries on them.
Like, stop it.
Like, brothers in the hood, that was high.
I didn't invent that.
That was a high snap.
Well, they should have marketed it.
That's what they should have did.
He was, I think, worth over $600 million when he passed away
and only made $1.8 million playing golf.
The rest was just marketing and investing.
Well, rest in peace to Arnold Palmer.
He actually lived longer than I thought he would,
mixing all that lemonade and iced tea together.
That's a lot of shit.
He's stupid.
I'm surprised he didn't die from diabetes.
I'll tell you why I like it.
Iced tea is not bad if you have it unsweetened.
He definitely wasn't drinking no unsweetened iced tea.
But that's why you mix
it with the lemonade.
First of all,
what type of savage
drinks unsweetened iced tea?
I don't even trust
those kind of people.
I actually like it
with an Arnold Palmer
because the lemonade
is sweet enough
that you don't need
the iced tea to be sweet.
That shit's disgusting.
Unsweetened iced tea
is like drinking Kool-Aid
with no sugar.
Who does that?
Kool-Aid is sugar.
Well, that's front page news.
Now, tell them why you're mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Call us right now.
Maybe you were pissed off over the weekend.
Maybe you had a bad morning.
Whatever it may be.
Maybe you don't want to go back to work today.
800-585-1051.
The phone lines are wide open.
You can call right now and vent.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, yo, this is Matt Rappler.
Good morning, yo, for real.
I'm going to tell you why I'm mad.
I'm going to tell you why I'm mad, for real, man.
Hey, yo, my girl keep coming home smelling like Polo cologne.
Like, that ain't for girls.
Like, I know something's going on, for real.
Like, I'm heated about that.
And I need y'all to tell me why y'all mad.
Why you mad on The Breakfast Club, for real.
Hey, Rebecca, tell them why you mad.
I'm mad because my boyfriend is listed in the airport.
He's been gone 111 days, and my family has not once asked me how he's been doing.
Your family doesn't like him?
They don't care.
They don't care.
Why don't they like him?
They don't like him because he has children.
How many children?
Four.
How many baby moms does he have?
One.
Okay.
So you're just a girlfriend on the side?
Well, no.
And I have two kids, so I don't see the issue.
I don't see the issue either, boo.
I thought you was going to call up here and say,
I'm mad that my family hasn't bought me a vibrator
when my boyfriend's been away for 111 days.
It's not even that.
No, they just won't even ask.
I'm sorry, Mama.
It's okay.
Hello, who's this? It's really not okay. It'm sorry, Mama. It's okay. Hello, who's this?
It's really not okay.
It's not.
Yeah, it's okay.
Hello?
Hey, my name is Kenny.
I'm from Broward County, Florida.
Me and my brother, we used to go to work with this one girl,
but she had a thing for my brother.
So one night, we all went out.
He ended up getting drunk with her,
and now he got the girl pregnant.
And trust me when I say this girl is ugly.
Damn.
Nobody like her in the family sees extremely annoying.
I don't know, man.
She's just bad fake, and we just don't trust this girl.
You just got to take that L and raise the baby to be the best baby he can be
because ain't nothing like having an ugly baby mama, bro.
That is the worst.
I know.
I know.
And you got to treat her nice.
Damn it.
Your baby mama ugly, man?
Nah, nah. No kidding. No kidding. I know. And you got to treat her nice. Damn it. Your baby mama ugly, man? Nah, nah.
No kidding.
No kidding.
No kidding.
And you got to treat your ugly baby mama like a queen because you don't want her showing
up nowhere angry.
People see her and be like, Jesus Christ, that's your baby mama?
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is T.
This is T from Houston.
T, tell them why you mad.
Okay, man, I'm mad because everything going down in Charlotte, you know, across the country,
everybody's rioting,
but they don't do it in Houston.
I wish they'd do it in Houston so they could block the road.
I'd have a couple of days off, you know.
You only want the rioting to happen so you don't have to go to work?
Yeah, that'd be a deal.
Oh, yeah.
That's some boom crap, man.
That's how crazy it is. I got another one.
See, they talking about the riots all the time and this, that,
but they don't talk about the Internet that's been taken over by the U.N.
They're going to turn it over to the U.N.,
so you're going to have the U.N. policing us.
You know, there's just one step closer to world government.
Number three, you can't ever talk bad about, like, Jay-Z or gay people.
They all belong together.
You put Jay-Z and gay people.
I don't know what's going on right now.
You should have said Beyonce and gay people. I don't know what's going on right now. I don't know what's going on right now.
You should have said Beyonce and gay people.
This guy, you know what?
Because you can get away
with talking about Jay,
but you can't get away
with talking about Beyonce.
All right.
Tell them why you're mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset,
you need to vent,
call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
That was Meek Mill.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
That was Meek Mill what?
That was all eyes on you.
Oh, gosh.
Now, what's been going on with the Meek Mill game situation?
Anything else happen over the weekend?
Yeah, a lot of things happened over the weekend.
It was mostly a lot of talk back and forth,
a lot of visiting cheesesteak places in Philly.
Y'all still following that?
A little bit.
I'm following it.
A little bit.
I seen Game went to Philly, bought a cheesesteak.
Then they said Game didn't go to Philly to buy a cheesesteak.
It was a Photoshop picture.
I'm confused.
There were some stories about Beanie Seagull circulating.
Where happened to Beanie?
I'm not 100% sure.
Maybe nothing happened.
Maybe something did.
But we got all of that in the rumor report.
Man, the last thing I want to hear about is grown men arguing
about who went and bought a cheesesteak, okay?
I was in Vegas all weekend at the iHeart Festival.
We did, and we actually met
Bryson Tiller. He does exist.
He is a person. We got to look at him and look at
his face. You need to tell the story about how
you could have signed Bryson, but you know, your baseness
got ruined. What could have helped him?
You should tell that story.
It's not really a story. It's my intern when I used to work at Virgin and Def Jam.
His name is Neil.
Shout out to Neil from Jersey.
He was my intern.
He brought me Bryce and Tilla a couple years ago.
The song Don't.
He brought me the song Don't and begged me to play it, and I didn't,
and it became a huge national success.
And I love hearing Bryce and Tilla tell a story about how a couple of years ago
he was sleeping in his car,
broke, and then to see how far he's come since then.
There's a lot of people out there
who don't know what's going to happen with their lives.
They're trying to suffer for their craft right now.
And just to show that you never know what might happen.
And think about how many cars you got in
that you could have let Bryson Tiller sleep in.
And he'd have remembered you forever,
and he'd have been your artist. The point is, you never know who the let Bryson Tiller sleep in. He'd have remembered you forever and he'd have been your artist.
The point is you never know who the next Bryson Tiller might be.
I remember going to see a lot of artists early on in their careers,
barely anybody at their shows,
and then later on they've blown up to become huge stars.
So it's always a good feeling.
But for every Bryson Tiller, there's 100 guys you never heard of.
Yeah, that's true.
Let's keep that in perspective too.
Some of y'all just not going to make it.
Every Bryson Tiller, there's a lot of guys out there that's trash. Yeah, it's okay to let y'all too. Some of y'all just not going to make it. Everybody's going to tell me there's a lot of guys out there that's trash.
Yeah, it's okay to let y'all know that some of y'all is not going to make it
and F your dreams of being in the music industry.
It's okay.
My goodness.
We got rumors coming up, E.
Well, I guess we'll be talking about the update on what's going on
with the game versus Meek Mill,
and there's a lot of side things happening along with that beef as well.
Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, there was a lot of activity over the weekend.
Still some fallout over this game versus Meek Mill situation.
Now, first up, Beanie Siegel gave an interview in Baltimore on a radio station out there, 92Q Jams.
And he had some things to say about being in the studio with Meek Mill.
Here's what he said.
He didn't say nothing to get me on the track.
I just happened to come in the studio.
So, you know, I just was helping them out with some lyrics.
And the situation kind of played out like it did.
But there's really no beef, especially between me and Gang.
So it's not me and Gang beef.
That's a gang and a weak male beef.
So, yeah, basically, I'm just representing for my city.
That's it.
So that basically confirms what Gang said when he came to the Breakfast Club.
It really does.
He did say that Beanie Segal had no idea there was a diss track that he was getting
on. And he was there helping write
some lyrics, which now some people are
going in because this whole ghost
writing thing. You know, this whole ghost writing
situation. Yeah, you can't accuse somebody
of having a ghost writer if people in
your team are using ghost writers.
Alright, well, the game was in
Philly over the weekend. And
first he went to go get some cheesesteaks.
Here he is on social media.
We out here in North Philly about to go see what these Max's cheesesteaks do.
Oh.
Now, he also went on Instagram.
He said, so first it was just me versus Mickey Mouse.
Then he went and got his big cousin because he can't fight.
Then we figured out this N-word cousin can't rap,
so these idiots go get Beanie Siegel and bring him out of retirement to write their raps,
only to get bodied on pest control as a group.
Then N-word say I can't come to Philly, so I go get a cheesesteak from Gino's in South Philly.
Then when I get there, N-word say I'm at the tourist spot.
Nah, I'm where Misha shot his video at because that's all I know. I ain't from Philly.
Now, we know he went to Gino's for sure.
Yeah, definitely went to Gino's.
But people are saying that he didn't really go to Max's.
Did he really go to Max's or not?
We don't know.
Yeah, we're not 100% sure, but he did have this to say.
There were some rumors also circulating that Beanie Siegel got jumped
or beat up over the weekend.
Here's what Game had to say about that.
So the young boy knocked out the old head because he was drawing at the John.
It's crazy, man.
You ain't got beans on a song that dis me.
That ain't do what you thought it was going to do.
So y'all went back and beat the legend up, man.
This is wrong.
First of all, we got a fart on game Philly impersonation.
Yeah, that was bad.
Jesus Christ, Philly.
I used to work in Philly for nine months.
No, Philly, that was a terrible Philly impersonator.
He tried.
It sounds like when you try to do Jamaican voices.
Yeah, you're pretty bad at that.
My patois is amazing.
No, it's not.
But, yeah, so I don't know what really happened with that
because I haven't heard from any witnesses that saw this go down.
Yeah, I mean, I've been hearing the same thing,
but I just don't believe it unless I see it on social media.
Am I wrong for that? Am I wrong? I'm one I just don't believe it unless I see it on social media. Am I wrong for that?
Am I wrong?
I'm one of those people that if I don't see it on Worldstar,
I see it on Shade Room or Ball Alert, I don't believe it.
It feels like hearsay right now.
Yeah, Beanie Siegel just got knocked out,
and nobody caught that on video in 2016.
Okay.
The only way I believe that is they tell me the guy who knocked her out
was 57 years old.
Well, I would hope nothing like this happened.
All right, and rest in peace to Bill Nunn,
a.k.a. Radio Raheem from Do The Right Thing.
A.k.a. the Dutter Man from New Jack City as well.
He died on Saturday.
He was in Pittsburgh.
He was 62 years old.
And Spike Lee also posted a couple of tributes to him on social media.
He said, my dear friend, my dear Morehouse brother,
the great actor Bill Nunn, as most do you know him?
Well, according to sources close to him, he had been battling cancer.
That's what his wife told the Associated Press.
Wow.
See, God bless that brother.
He out here battling cancer, and y'all playing with your lives by going to Philly to get cheesesteaks?
Come on, game.
Stop it.
Not right now.
I mean, I just don't think none of that is worth it.
Do you?
Is anybody in the room?
Am I missing something?
No, I definitely don't think so.
Yeah, Philly goons are not the type of goons you want to tempt.
Now, Chesley also told Rolling Stone, Bill Nunn was a friend,
yet I know him as such an accomplished actor
who led Spike Lee's renaissance of black cinema roles.
All right, well, that is your rumor report.
I'm Angela Yee.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now we got front page news, Yee.
Yes, we are going to talk about a tragic accident
that happened in Miami with Miami Marlins baseball player.
Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, let's start with football.
The Packers beat the Lions.
The Bills beat the Cardinals.
The Raiders beat the Titans.
The Dolphins beat the Browns in overtime. The Ravens beat the Jaguars. The Broncos beat the Bengals The Bills beat the Cardinals. The Raiders beat the Titans. The Dolphins beat the Browns in overtime.
The Ravens beat the Jaguars.
The Broncos beat the Bengals.
The Vikings beat the Panthers.
The Giants beat themselves.
No, they got washed.
We didn't get washed.
We didn't get washed.
We lost by two points, and we beat ourselves.
Give the Redskins their props, you racist.
No, I'm not.
And they absolutely positively, the Giants beat themselves.
Odell Beckham beat himself when he hit that damn field goal net.
They definitely hit the field goal net,
and the field goal net came back and punched him in the face.
And Odell Beckham, why was he crying before the game during the national?
It was emotional, man, emotional for him.
I know, Odell's like, all these guys on their knees,
and none of them on their knees for me.
Shut up, man.
Shut up, man.
All that lost opportunity.
The Rams beat the Bucs, Seahawks beat the 49ers,
Colts beat the Chargers.
The Eagles beat the Steelers.
And tonight for Monday Night Football, the Falcons play the Saints.
Yeah, and you're just going to try to, you know,
omit the fact that my Dallas Cowboys beat the Chicago Bears 31-17,
drop one of the clues bombs for my Dallas Cowboys.
Damn it.
I told y'all to bet on the young boys.
I told y'all in the preseason that Dak Prescott was special.
And I was glad Tony Romo, you know, went down.
And you know what?
I'm almost to the point where I don't want to hear from Tony no more.
Okay?
No more.
No more.
You guys ain't going to win, so it ain't nothing.
You don't know what we're going to do.
I know what you're going to do.
Same way.
Our team is just as unstable as Odell Beckham's emotions.
Okay? You don't know what we're going to do. Same way. Our team is just as unstable as Odell Beckham's emotions. Okay?
You don't know what we're going to do.
Now let's talk about the tragic things that's going on over the weekend in sports now.
Well, Miami Marlins' Jose Fernandez was killed.
He was only 24 years old.
He was involved in a boating accident that happened in Florida early Sunday morning.
His boat was found upside down on a jetty off of Miami Beach.
Two of the victims were found under the vessel, and one was found upside down on a jetty off of Miami Beach. Two of the victims were found
under the vessel and one was found
in the water. None of them were wearing a life vest.
They did say that there was
no evidence of alcohol or illegal drug
use, so they do feel like speed
is a factor in the accident. Now,
there was supposed to be a game yesterday
for the Marlins at home against the Atlanta Braves.
That game was canceled.
Life comes at you fast.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, rest in peace to him.
You said he had a newborn on the way, right?
Yeah, his wife was pregnant.
He was only 25 years old.
What country did he come from?
Ask our resident Dominican in the room, Q.
He's not Dominican.
He's Spanish.
He's Puerto Rican.
Puerto Rican.
And let's find out where he's from.
Where did he come from, Q?
Cuba.
He's Cuban.
Okay. Cuban Rican. And let's find out where he's from. Where did he come from, Q? Cuba. He's Cuban. Okay.
Cuban-American.
Came over here from Cuba and made all his money, and now he's deceased.
You just never know how life's going to turn.
Okay.
All right.
I hope that he still gets all that money, right?
He got a guaranteed contract, right?
I don't know about that.
I hope so, for the family's sake.
All right.
Now, also, let's talk about Arnold Palmer.
Yes, Arnold Palmer, who is a golfing legend. He died
Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh.
Now he died from complications from
heart problems according to his long
time agent. He started his career
in 1954 professionally.
He went on to win 62 titles
on the PGA Tour, which is the fifth most of
all time. He also was a pioneer
in sports marketing. He paved the way
for scores of other athletes to get millions from endorsements. So he was a pioneer in sports marketing. He paved the way for scores of other athletes to
get millions from endorsements.
So he was one of the highest earners in golf
for decades after his last
PGA Tour win. And for whatever
reason, he gets the credit for inventing the half
and half, which is iced tea and lemonade.
But can anybody prove that he actually
invented this iced tea and lemonade? Well, I don't know that they said
that he invented it, but I guess he made it popular
and gave it the name. I guarantee that he invented it, but I guess he made it popular. He marketed the hell out of it.
He gave it the name.
I guarantee you he stole it from the hood.
I guarantee he stole it from the hood
and freaking made billions off it.
$100 million.
He was worth about $600 million.
Let's open up the phone lines.
That was front page news.
800-585-1051.
We're talking about this Arnold Palmer drink.
Where was this thing created?
It was created in the hood.
The first half and half was created because somebody only had enough lemonade for a half
a glass and only had enough tea for a half a glass
so they combined the two.
I always do half and halves when
I have unsweetened iced tea because I don't like to
add sugar to it and I just get lemonade
and that's a half and half.
Some people say it was created in Harlem
and they call it the uptown, which is half and half.
Now, I'm going to say this.
This is how we figure out if the half and half was created by Arnold Palmer.
If it was unsweetened tea, like Angelina says,
it definitely was created by a white man.
Okay, but if the first half and half was sweet tea and lemonade,
it was created by a black person in the hood.
No, that's good.
You need all that sugar.
I can't do it.
If you buy Arnold Palmer, most of the time, I don't know if you'll notice, it was a diet.
It's a diet, Arnold Palmer.
And everywhere you go to try to buy it, it was diet.
Well, that's the gentrified Arnold Palmer, half and half, okay?
Yeah, but I don't think he ever took credit for creating it.
He better not, okay?
Well, 805-85-1051, where was the half and half created?
Where was the Arnold Palmer created?
Call us up right now. You can't give Arnold Palmer credit for the half and half,? Where was the Arnold Palmer created? Call us up right now.
Can't give Arnold Palmer credit for the half and half, bro, bro.
I know Chick-fil-A mastered it, though.
I'll tell you that much.
But 805-85-1051.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Here's for free.
Khaled, Drake, another one.
Another one.
That was Mo Money, Mo Problems.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, rest in peace to Arnold Palmer, the golf legend.
He was, people say he created the half and half.
Nobody says he created it, but it was named after him because, I guess,
somebody overheard him ordering it at a restaurant, and then it just got popular after that.
Yeah, just take something that black people in the hood created
and name it after a white man and give the white man the credit for it, huh?
The half and half was created by a young brother named tyrone from greenville south carolina this
was around the early 1900s okay and he only had enough lemonade for a half a glass and only had
enough tea for a half a glass so they combined the two and boom you have the half and half well i i
would i would think that it was created somewhere in the South because you guys in the South love your sugar.
There you go.
Now you're talking.
I don't know about South Carolina.
I'm thinking more like Virginia.
Maybe Atlanta.
Georgia.
Starting in Greenville, Virginia, Georgia.
Listen, you're absolutely right.
And that's why I don't understand when Angelique keeps talking about unsweetened tea.
When it did with unsweetened tea,
you know it was a white man who created that.
Well, Arnold Palmer's from Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania doesn't seem like a place that would have created the half and half.
Well, they're saying that this happened in Denver.
All right, that's where he ordered that drink
and a woman overheard him.
I definitely don't think Denver was the starting place.
It's got to be somewhere in the South.
There's got to be an interview Arnold Palmer talked about
where he actually first drank half and half. No, he talks about it. That's why we know the story, because he's got to be somewhere in the south. There's got to be an interview where Ana Palma talked about where he actually first drank half and half.
No, he talked about it. That's why we know the story
because he's the one that said he would always
order this and a woman overheard him ordering it
and then said, oh, that sounds great. I'm going to have the same thing.
No, but how did he start drinking? No, I said when he first drank
half and half. Not when he ordered it and then
made it popular. Who put him on to it?
Who was his plug? Tyrone
from Greenville. I make up drinks at home
all the time. Say it again. I make up drinks at home all the time.
Say it again. I make up drinks at home all the time.
Okay, and you're a half and half
Negro from Brooklyn.
That's the hood. Okay, so just like I
said, people in the hood create
these concoctions and then people like
Arnold Palmer steal them and make millions. Well, actually
Angelique is right. He did have
unsweetened tea. See,
that's what I drink. And then lemonade in the other half, which is disgusting.
Okay.
What do I got to do?
I think it's really good.
I don't like super, super sweet drinks.
That's why.
Arna Palmer was down south somewhere, and they gave him the sweet tea and lemonade.
He was like, this tastes good, but it's too much sugar.
So what do I do?
I take the sweet tea out of it and let the lemonade be the flavoring.
That's what happened.
Hello, who's this?
Norena Fernandez.
Norena.
All right.
Where did the half and half come from?
From my mother.
How old is your mother?
My actual mother is 82.
She could have created it.
She's been making iced tea and lemonade since I was a kid in Brooklyn, New York.
Okay, so it came from Brooklyn.
Brooklyn.
Brooklyn kids claim everything.
How old are you?
We take it.
55.
Okay, so you old.
So you just have half and half been around, boo.
Brooklyn can't claim everything now.
Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
Hello, who's this?
This is Marlon from Miami.
Probably in the hood.
But Arnold Palmer, I know he made it popular probably in the white community,
but I'm pretty sure it's great in that hood.
In Miami, they don't call it Arnold Palmer.
They call it a flop.
A slop?
Yeah, a flop.
Everybody doesn't call it Arnold Palmer,
and the way that he also describes it is it's one-third lemonade
and two-thirds iced tea because he says the iced tea has to dominate the drink.
Oh, shut up.
That's his way of trying to make it fancy.
He's gentrifying the half and half.
Hello, who's this? Good morning, this is Francesco. Hey, Francesco gentrifying the half and half. Hello, who's this?
Good morning, this is Francesco.
Hey, Francesco.
Where did the half and half create, what was created at?
The half and half, the history of it was basically not made by him.
He never took credit for creating it,
but it was familiarized with his name when he went to the clubhouse.
You couldn't have found a better person to speak to about it
because I actually worked for Arizona.
Oh, you worked for Arizona.
So where was it created?
Who created the half and half?
Black people in the hood.
Oh, you can't.
I mean, you can't really claim who made it.
Who knows?
It could have been made by many different people who had no idea.
Somebody else thought of it already before.
Send us some half and half up here, bro.
Send us some half and half.
The real question is, how does John Daly take credit for the half and half with Vodka?
I heard the Native Americans created the half and half.
And the white man stole it from him.
That's what I heard.
800-585-1051. We're talking
the half and half to Arnold Palmer.
Who created it? How was it created?
Call us up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
That was Tory Lanez with love.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, Arnold Palmer passed away over the weekend.
Everybody knows that the Arnold Palmer is a drink as well.
It's called the half and half, half lemonade, half iced tea.
By the way, I've never called a half and half an Arnold Palmer ever in my life.
Okay.
Have you ever called a half and half a vodka as John Daly?
No.
Absolutely not.
That's what it is. What the hell is a half and half a vodka? You know what I call a half and half with vodka as John Daly? No. Absolutely not. That's what it is. What the hell is a half
and half with vodka? You know what I call a half and half
with vodka? A Long Island iced tea.
No, that's a Long Island iced tea. It has five different
liquors in it. It's not even close.
Oh. My goodness.
Shut up, Steve. Where was it created?
I'm thinking
it was created somewhere in the South.
A young brother named Tyrone. All that sugar in the South.
I think with sweet tea and lemonade, maybe in the South,
but with unsweetened iced tea and lemonade.
Who drinks unsweetened iced tea?
I do.
Who are you nasty?
Who are you savages that drink unsweetened iced tea?
Listen, I try to be healthy, and all that sugar is not healthy.
Man, listen, you can drink alcohol.
I don't understand people who drink a lot of alcohol but drink unsweetened.
I don't drink a lot of alcohol.
He says he drinks it with tonic, so it's no sugar in it.
No, seltzer.
Tonic actually has a lot of sugar in it.
Oh, seltzer because there's no sugar in it.
Mm-hmm.
People who drink unsweetened iced tea also enjoy mayonnaise sandwiches.
What?
That makes no sense.
Hey, good morning.
Good morning.
Where was the half and half created?
About the sweet tea?
Yes.
You need sugar with the iced tea.
Oh, hell no.
I cannot drink no iced tea with no sugar.
Well, now, I can't drink unsweetened iced tea, but with lemonade I can.
I can't.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Diamond.
Hey, Diamond.
Where was the sweet tea created?
And don't say the strip club.
Um, no, it was, it was, it wasn't invented.
Okay, the answer to Charlamagne's question as far as where, I mean, if he actually invented it, it is with unsweetened tea.
He likes it with unsweetened tea and lemonade.
There we go.
So Arnold Palmer or whatever the case may be, he invented that part of it.
But we have kind of altered it a little bit with putting sweet tea and lemonade.
As we should.
Now, there you go.
We made it better.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
We altered it a little bit, but that's how he, actually, a lady,
I guess in 1960, a lady had overheard him ordering it at the PGA Tour,
and that's how she said she wanted the Palmer drink.
Nobody drinks unsweetened iced tea.
Drinking unsweetened iced tea is like drinking ink.
Hello, who's this?
You have a drink, ink?
Yo, this is Terry from Duval, man.
Duval!
Hey, so I want to first off say, RIP to Arnold Palmer.
He was definitely one of the greatest to put it down on the golf course,
and I wasn't even alive for half his career.
Yeah, shut up.
I never watched that man play no damn golf.
I haven't.
You're right.
You're right.
Shout out to Arnold Palmer for putting it down on the golf course.
You ain't never watched all the people putting it on the golf course.
The sweet tea drink.
Now, let's be honest.
There's really no answer to find out, like, who really invented that drink.
But they say they gave it to him in the 60s because he ordered a homemade drink that looked like it,
and they named it the Palmer drink.
And ever since then, it's been huge.
But come on now.
Who knows really who invented it?
Native Americans and black people in the hood.
I guarantee you.
You can't say that.
We don't know who invented it.
Yes, I can.
I know somebody from the South did, though.
Yeah.
There was black people in the hood in the South.
Native Americans and black people in the hood created the half and half.
I'm sure of it.
I'm sure there was a whole lot of people that were drinking that from all over.
Because that seems like a pretty common thing that you would order.
Even before I knew what an Arnold Palmer was,
I was doing that anyway.
So it's not like I ever said,
let me get an Arnold Palmer.
What's the moral of the story, guys?
The moral of the story is the white man steals.
And one of the 48 laws of power
is get others to do the work for you,
but always take the credit.
And the thief is a thief,
whether he steals a diamond or a cucumber
or the half and half from Native Americans.
Shut up. Yeah, we got rumors coming up.
Yes, we are going to talk about
Lil Wayne. Now, apparently he has his book
coming out from while he was incarcerated
at Rikers Island, and
it has all kinds of things in it. Some gay
marriage ceremonies. What?
And a basic instinct type of
story that went down where he told a girlfriend
to not wear any panties.
Is this fictional or non-fictional?
What are we talking about here? This is his memoirs.
Whoa. Alright, we'll
also talk about who has to pay their
ex-boyfriend
$110,000.
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast. What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, Lil Wayne is putting out a memoir, and this is his memoir as well.
He was incarcerated.
This book is called Gone Till November. It's coming out October 11th, and basically it was a handwritten journal,
and he was in jail for eight months
for those gun charges back in 2010.
Now he talks about how he married off
two other male inmates,
and they decorated the hall with toilet tissue,
and they toasted with Gatorade.
He said Gatorade is liquid gold in his bitch.
Oh, man.
Imagine grown-ass men in jail
hanging tissue for wedding decorations,
and one of them is little Wayne crazy.
Listen, I'm not a comedian, but there's a great joke in there
about drinking gay tirade at a gay wedding.
Shut up, man.
Now, he also said he watched American Idol,
but he wouldn't watch the Wendy Williams show.
He said he'd rather go back to his cell when that show came on.
He said he missed having sex, but early on,
two female officers were suspended.
They were coming to see him, okay?
And he also asked one of his girlfriends to come visit without wearing panties
so she could do a little basic instinct and show off her vag,
but they got caught because they have these searches before you come in,
so they made her put on a pair of boxers because they knew she didn't have on any panties.
Hey, this sounds like a very entertaining eight months.
I might have to get this book.
I think it's time to go to jail.
At first, I don't want to read no book.
I don't want to read no book about a little short eight-month stretch,
but this sounds kind of entertaining.
I forget this is Lil Wayne we're talking about.
Now, he also said that Diddy and Kanye West all came and visited him,
so they had to undergo those body searches.
You ain't never visit Shine, no, Diddy, or Black Rob, or G-Depth.
But he also admitted there was one low point for him.
That was when Drake admitted that he slept with his girlfriend in the past.
He said, finding out that she effed Drake was the absolute worst thing I could have found out.
Drizzy came to see me.
He was like, yeah, it's true.
Damn, this is the type of issue a man never wants to find out while he is locked up.
Which girlfriend was that?
Was that the one that was always with him?
The little light-skinned one?
Listen, you guys are going to have to read the
book if you want to see, but he actually addressed
it in a song and everything before. If you guys
remember, this was always the rumor that Drake slept with his
girl, if you remember that.
Who the hell he's talking about? Now, he also wrote
on a daily basis, and he came out with a new album.
He said, I always thought I needed things like being high with my
Enmer to Bugatti, a dope-ass crib,
or some big booty bitches to be creative, but
once it was taken away from me,
my creativity was put to the ultimate test.
Can we get an advanced copy of this book, please?
And why would Drake tell that man he smashed his girl?
I guess maybe Wayne asked him and he admitted it.
I don't know.
Maybe it was going to come out.
He just wanted to be honest.
He said, yeah, man, it's true.
You know what, though?
I would rather know, though,
especially if it's some girl that I've been investing time and energy in.
That's an awkward conversation.
Let me know she's a smut.
And remember, there were all those rumors that Wayne and Drake had a fight and everything.
It was all over the girl that Drake slept with one of his girlfriends.
All right, well, Lil Wayne also is in the news for getting a break in his war against Birdman, his legal war.
Judge is saying that Birdman has to open his books
to account for the millions of dollars that Lil Wayne says he never saw.
They were supposed to split a $100 million advance,
but somehow Birdman spent $70 million and went through that
and couldn't account for it.
So now he's going to have to go ahead and show everything.
The problem is that Birdman says that they weren't very good
at keeping track of that.
So for two years he said it is what it is.
I don't know.
Would you rather your man smash your girl or would you rather your man blow through $70 million and not give you what you were supposed to get?
Neither.
You got to pick.
You got to pick one.
I'd rather him smash my girl.
I can buy a new girl.
Another financial news, Gilbert Aranis has won a judgment of $110,000
against his ex, Laura Govan.
She has to pay him that
because she allegedly wrote a nasty email
about how he gave her STDs
and then leaked it to different various media outlets.
So he said it was humiliating for him
and it affected his ability to work on his app
without being distracted.
So he did get a default judgment in the case.
So she has to pay him now.
All right, and that is your rumor report.
I'm Angela Yee.
Thank you, Yeezy.
Now, Charlemagne.
Yes.
Who you giving that donkey to?
Listen, man, it's a schoolteacher in the Bronx.
His name is Kevin Pope.
He sent his student on a very, very strange class assignment.
We'll talk about it for after the hour.
Okay, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Charlamagne, say the gang donkey
under the shade. Charlamagne. You
are a donkey.
It's time for
Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the
Day does not discriminate. I might not
have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the heat.
It's the Breakfast Club, bitches. Who's donkey of the day today?
Yeah, donkey of the day for Monday, September 26th goes to a school teacher named
Kevin Pope. Let's just start this donkey by simply reading the headline from the New York
Post because it's one of those headlines that grabs you immediately and makes you
want to read the whole story.
Okay.
The headline is teacher beats up student who owed him money for weed.
I repeat teacher beats up student who owed him money for weed.
How much?
Would you love some details?
I get to that.
I'm gonna give you some details.
Well, it happened in the Bronx.
Drop one of clues bombs for the Bronx.
Okay.
Some of my favorite sophisticated scumbags are from the Bronx.
Salute to Jesus Romero in French Montana.
This crime sounds exactly like something you dirty Bronx niggers would do.
Okay, now a charter school teacher at John V. Lindsey Wildcat Academy in Hunt Point
was arrested at the school Friday morning and charged with assault and robbery.
See, Kevin Pope is his name and teaching science and allegedly selling weed
is his game. Kevin Pope is 48 years old
and he was looking for a plug.
See, this teacher was looking to score four grand
to answer your question, Yee. Four grand worth of
marijuana. So he did what any man who was
in the Bronx would do. He asked
the kids. Now, back in June, he asked
them if they knew a drug dealer
and they put him in touch with a teenager who promised
Kevin that he could get him that work he was seeking.
The teenager told Kevin Pope he had a plug in Manhattan.
So Kevin gave the kid the four bands.
Now, let's be clear.
This actually sounds like the kind of class assignment I would expect from a teacher in the Bronx.
Like this is really on brand for the Bronx.
OK, the unidentified teen told cops he met the drug dealer in Central Park, but was told the quantity of the drugs he was seeking would cost $7,000.
So since this kid was short three racks, he did what any respectable Bronx Negro would do.
He said F the drug deal and spent the money on himself.
Drop one of Clues Bonds for this kid, damn it.
Okay.
You got to whoop him out.
Yes, ladies.
The plug ran off on himself.
He's like, what's he going to do, call the cops on me?
I don't know.
Envy is correct because when the science teacher, Kevin Pope, caught up with the
kid three months later, he found the kid
about two blocks away from school, demanded
the money. When the kid
told the teacher that he had blew the money,
Kevin Pope did what any teacher would do
to a student who didn't follow directions.
He disciplined him, okay, by
punching him in the face multiple times, took
away his iPhone 6, his gold chain, and wallet
containing the boy's school ID and two Metro cards.
Nothing really wrong with that, okay?
I'm going to tell you why.
We need teachers to be tough on students.
If I give you an assignment and you don't complete the assignment,
then discipline should be administered.
A source also said that Kevin Pope threatened to have the boy beat up again
and told the boy, I will have your mother sexually assaulted.
Drop one of Clues' bombs for Kevin Pope because he's wrong and he's absolutely deserving of the hee-haw.
But he's also providing valuable lessons to this kid because he's showing him how it really goes down in the drug game.
Somebody owes you some money.
You steal all you can from him, beat him up, and threaten to rape his mother.
Okay?
He may have saved this kid from a life of crime by doing this.
The kid needed three surgical staples
to close the gash in the back of his head.
And sources say the whole altercation
is on surveillance video. So
hopefully that ends up on WorldStar
real soon. As of this past Friday
night, Kevin Pope was awaiting a
raiment at the Bronx criminal court.
And this is all I got.
Did he get his money back?
No.
Of course not.
I don't even understand what more needs to be said, but I will say this.
Kevin Pope is exactly why, if you're a school teacher, you do it for the love.
Because if you're doing it for a check, you might end up picking up another job on the side,
and that job could be in the drug game.
And if this country doesn't start giving teachers the respect they deserve by paying them more money,
we might have a lot more teachers turn trap stars.
Please give Kevin Pope some of the smooth sounds and the hammer tones, please.
You are the donkey of the day.
One more time, guys.
You are the donkey of the day.
Yee-haw.
All right.
Thank you for that donkey of the day.
Yeah, man.
I kind of feel Kevin Pope just a little bit. If I give you my four grand, man,
that's a lot of money.
I mean, he's still a teacher.
He gave the kid a class assignment.
That technically was some type of class assignment.
The kid failed the class assignment.
And, you know, you gotta show them the real
life consequences of if you run off with somebody's
money during a drug deal. So I'm supposed to see you and
just give you a high five? I can't do it.
Yeah, I can't. I can't just give you an F.
I will give you an F, but the F stands for fate.
There you go. Well, I guess a teacher learned a valuable
lesson, too. What's that? That your students aren't
gonna be able to go and score those $4,000
worth of drugs for you. Yeah.
Probably gotta find a better plug.
I feel sorry for the teacher that he had to turn to in life for selling drugs,
but that's how much teachers are underappreciated in this country.
Okay.
I know.
My mother was a school teacher for over 30 years.
I think the most she ever made was $30,000 a year in South Carolina.
That's a damn shame.
Damn it, man.
All right.
Well, thank you for that, Dawg.
And today when we come back,
we have to talk about our iHeartRadio Music Festival.
It went down this weekend.
We was wilding over the weekend.
Yeah, we was wilding because we wasn't working.
The reason we wasn't working
is because there wasn't a lot of black people there.
When there's not a lot of black people there,
there's really nothing for the Breakfast Club to do.
It was pretty relaxing.
I mean, we could interview the white artists,
but they won't let us.
We'll talk about it.
We'll talk about our experiences when we come back.
So keep it locked.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Hola.
That was fabulous.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Back from Vegas.
What's happening?
Our iHeartRadio Music Festival 2016 went down over the weekend.
Amazing show.
Had a great time.
Every time we go to Vegas, I have so much fun.
I always look forward to the iHeartRadio Festival every year.
And I love the Village part, too.
The iHeartVillage.
Yeah, I tell people all the time, if they've never been to the iHeartRadio Music Festival,
you should go at least once in your life.
To me, it starts off the holiday vibes.
Right.
For me.
Now, Friday night was the first show on Drake performed Friday night.
Also, U2.
He performed Friday night.
Yeah, U2 performed Friday night.
Let's be clear. There was no black performers this year. You had Drake. Also U2. He performed Friday night. Yeah, U2 performed Friday night. Let's be clear. There was no black...
U2 closed out the show. There was no black performers this year.
You had Drake. Drake was Friday.
He's half and half. Saturday was
Pitbull and Usher. Pitbull is not black,
man.
He's Cuban. He's Cuban. He's Cuban.
Usher's black.
The hip-hop representation was very,
very, very light this year. Very minimal.
Very small. Very, very minimal.
But at The Village, we had Tinashe, we had Bryson Tiller, we had Jeremiah.
You would think that, I mean, hip-hop is pop culture, right?
To me.
Not even to me.
Hip-hop is pop culture nowadays.
So you would think that it would be a lot more hip-hop representation this year, but it wasn't.
Uh-uh.
Yeah, they got to work on that.
We definitely got to work on that.
We still had a good time from all the parties to the performances to the shows.
I did get to watch other genres of music and see some artists perform that some of them I knew and some of them I had never heard of before.
And it actually was very educational for me.
I know one thing.
What's that?
People got to stop trying to push this Britney Spears thing on the people, man.
But you don't like it?
She sells out everywhere.
That Britney Spears ship has come and gone, okay?
I can't think of too many things that bore me more than a Britney Spears performance, okay?
We don't be pushing Ciara on people, so why they keep trying to push Britney Spears on us?
You cannot compare Ciara to Britney.
And people like Britney.
You don't feel bad when you see Britney Spears out there anymore?
Like, you don't feel bad for her? It's not my cup of tea. I really don't watch it. It ain't my cup of tea. It don't feel bad when you see Britney Spears out there anymore? You don't feel bad for her?
It's not my cup of tea. I really don't watch it.
It ain't my cup of tea. It ain't my cup of lemonade.
It ain't my cup of half and half.
Nothing. I'm not into it.
Shout out to Britney. She's still out there prospering
and making a living. There you go. Hey, man.
Britney's like, you just gotta know
to hang it up. It's like when you've been in the NBA
for too long. You've been in the NBA for 20 plus years.
Your last season, you know, we remember you used to be a superstar. It's like when you've been in the NBA for too long, you've been in the NBA for 20 plus years so your last season,
you know,
we remember you used to be a superstar
so when you score like
eight to ten points
we cheer and go crazy.
That's how Britney Spears
performances are now.
Well, and if you want
more black artists,
it's Powerhouse.
That's what Powerhouse
is for, sir.
You get all your
black artists there.
Well, we like our diversity
though still.
I Heart Radio Music.
Yes, two different vibes.
I like, I love the I Heart Festival.
I love going there.
I just want to see more of us represented.
And I want to work more.
Yeah.
Okay?
Yeah, we didn't really have nothing to do.
You know what we did a lot this weekend?
Sit in the lounge and drink.
So I got a bunch of extra calories I got to burn off because I had nothing to do but sit
in the lounge and drink with y'all.
Other than that, I had a good time.
We had some candy, too.
But I will say,
there was no food really.
There wasn't a lot of food backstage either.
Did you notice that?
Mm-hmm.
It was to the point
where I had somebody
go get me a pizza.
Shout out to Juan.
He actually took over
the Breakfast Club Snapchat
during the time
that we were there.
And he got me a pizza
and then some random person
was like,
hey, can I have
a slice of pizza?
I can't believe
you got pizza over chicken.
And it was a small
personal pizza
and he dropped it on the floor, his piece of pizza, but he't believe you got pizza over chicken. And it was a small personal pizza and
he dropped it on the floor, his piece of pizza
but he still ate it. That's how you know
there wasn't a lot of food. Drop one of Clues bombs
to that guy. They had no boo there.
Three second rule. They had no boo there. Oh, they had sushi.
They had no boo which had sushi. I don't eat sushi.
Then in the other suite they had burgers. They had a bunch of different things.
Did you walk around? I don't eat red meat. Oh, well that's true.
I mean, they had burgers and sushi.
Even the food wasn't diverse.
Yeah, but I definitely enjoyed that sushi from no boo. I don't eat red meat. Well, that's true. I mean, they had burgers and sushi. Even the food wasn't diverse. Yeah, but I definitely enjoyed that sushi from Nobu.
I mean, I'll tell you no lie.
Too fancy for me.
Not me.
As long as I ain't paying for it, I'm all in.
Nobu, Nobu, Nobu, Nobu.
Now, when we come back, we got a chance to kick it with Jesse from Empire and also Lil
Johnson.
Jesse, Jesse.
Jesse Smollett.
That's what I said.
By the way, these are two of the three times that we worked all weekend.
Okay?
Nowhere.
Because there wasn't any black people.
There's nothing for us to do.
So we interviewed Jesse, and we interviewed Lil Jon, and then we introduced Usher.
Right.
And we met a whole lot of people at our VIP suite in the village.
Right.
And by the way, we had all the black stuff covered.
And if it wasn't for Don Cheadle and Jamie Foxx, we'd have introduced Drake, too.
Yeah, but they were just a little bigger than us.
They had two black people in the room who were bigger than us.
You know what? Let's go get Don Cheadle.
Let's go get War Machine and Django
to introduce Drake.
All right.
Now, when we come back, we're going to get that on.
Now, shout-out to our family at Revolt.
You guys will not see the footage,
because we don't have the footage, but we got the audio.
When we come back, keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
What's up, y'all?
It's DJ Envy.
I'm Angela Yee.
I go by the name of Charlamagne Tha God with the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
Beige is back.
Light Skin is back.
Beige is not back.
Beige is back.
No, we love this guy.
It's Jussie Smiley.
That's right.
What's up, y'all?
What's up, y'all?
Because of Empire, though, Beige has come back to the forefront a lot.
We've been in the forefront.
No, no, no.
I rebuke that.
I rebuke that.
First of all,
I'm all chocolatey and stuff.
I just, you know,
these lights out here,
that's the situation right now.
Don't be tripping.
Your light skin, your beige,
your waffle color like me.
Stop it.
Waffle color?
Yes.
Waffle color?
Yes, yes.
You're definitely a khaki color.
But we are loving
that Empire is back, by the way.
I'm super excited
for episode two, okay?
Why are you excited
about that, Angela?
I don't know.
I guess we gonna see if I don't get cut.
No, you're not going to get cut.
She's not cut.
You cut now.
Just buy me a contract.
Now you there.
I hope so, damn.
What you doing here tonight, man?
Man, I'm presenting our show with y'all.
He's coming to us.
Oh, I didn't know if you were performing or not.
He didn't even read the script.
We did our whole rehearsal. We did a whole rehearsal.
We did a whole rehearsal.
There was a fake Jussie Smollett.
No, the dude said he was Jussie, so I thought he was just a stand-in.
He was a stand-in for him.
All right, I'm drunk.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it.
So what?
You're dumb.
Bitch.
Oh, I get it.
I get it.
So give us some spoilers for Empire.
No, I'm just kidding. I know you can't do that. What, that you're going to be on the show? I mean. Are you still enjoying the show? Still enjoying doing it? I get it. I get it. So give us some spoilers for Empire. No, I'm just kidding.
I know you can't do that.
What, that you're going to be on the show?
I mean...
Are you still enjoying the show and still enjoying doing it?
I enjoy it.
I'm enjoying this scene, this season especially.
So I'm real proud of it.
Well, I like you haven't gotten lost in your character.
You know how some people play a character on TV?
Like you only look at Jaleel White as Urkel.
You know what I mean?
You haven't gotten lost in that yet.
Charlemagne.
I'm considering it.
Anyway, we all have to get to the stage to introduce us.
That was off the stage.
Wasn't that off the stage?
I give it up for our president.
It's the iHeartRadio Music Festival.
Hug it out.
Hug it out.
Hug it out.
All right.
When we come back, we kicked it with Lil Jon as well.
Yeah!
It's the Breakfast Club.
First of all, don't ever do a Little John impersonation ever again. You sound
worse than Game trying to do a Philly impersonation.
I sound like you doing patois.
My patois is amazing. Salute to the God
Little John. Little John does not get enough credit
for what he's done in the hip-hop culture.
I'm from the South. I still listen to Little
John to this day. I love crunk music.
We'll kick it with him next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
What up, y'all? It's DJ Envy. Hey, I'm
Angela Yee. I go by the name of Charlamagne Tha God with the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
What's happening?
Backstage, backstage, our 2016 iHeartRadio Music Festival.
Yes.
It's going down.
We've seen a lot today.
How much I miss crunk.
And this is one of the, this is the forefather.
Yes, the god.
A lot of crunk music.
Little freaking John.
What's up, my brother?
What's happening?
That's a little too calm.
That's when you got him with the, yeah, yo.
Oh, you did it, guy. I ain't, yeah, yo! I did it for you.
So you still getting a lot of money out here,
John? Oh, yeah, Vegas, you know, I have a
residency out here with Hakazan Group, so I'm
out here pretty much every week doing
Hakazan, Jewel,
and some of their other venues, so
yeah, I'm doing my thing. Everybody wants to pick your brain,
you know, as far as DJ to DJ.
On how he can start making money.
He wants to get on your level.
For his craft.
I mean, you know what?
This is what I think about.
You're lying right now.
You can continue.
No, no, no.
Oh, you don't want to get on Lil Jon's level?
No, I was, like, really looking at the urban side.
It's not too good over there, is it?
I mean, it's just the nightclub scene is so boring.
It is.
Everybody stands around.
I mean, it's always been that, though.
I don't duck under a couple
tables, you know, and all that. But I mean,
it's just, people just need to get back to, like,
having a good time. I remember when
black women liked to dance, for
real, all night long.
I remember when you played the classics
and the classics was the hottest records of the night.
You know, like, it's just
it's some kind of disconnect with the 2000s generation.
Now we like to take selfies at the table with our bottles,
with some sparkles.
But that's why I like,
I don't know if you've seen Kanye's new show,
The St. Pablo Tour, with the mosh pit.
Right.
The only word to describe that mosh pit was crunk.
Right.
Like, them kids didn't care.
They was sweating.
They was pushing each other.
They look.
That's what we need.
I love seeing you with Ray Shermer
too. I thought that was a nice combination.
Gotta thank the homie Mike Will.
He put us all together. He was trying
to get me on that record for like two years, but I was so
busy I didn't really have time and we finally
knocked it out. So what are you doing here?
I mean, you got a song with us and he's about to perform.
He has a classic record.
Khaled just up.
You just got some money up there.
That Drake check is gonna be great. That, we going to. Khaled just up. You just got some money. Oh, man.
Yeah, that Drake check is going to be great.
That Drake Khaled check.
I'm waiting on that.
That's some new whips, man.
That's new whips.
That's a lot.
With some S's on it.
But, yeah, I'm here with Usher.
You know, I helped put his show together for the night.
He called me in and was like, yo, I want you to, you know, revamp it and put some flavor into it and make it more ATL.
And, you know, I'm performing with him on it, you know, as well.
And Luda's here, so we're just going to have a good time.
Well, that makes sense.
We love the history behind it, too.
How do you think Atlanta has evolved musically?
I mean, Atlanta, one thing about Atlanta, we've always been doing our own thing and kind of leading music, you know.
So I think it's still, that's still definitely happening.
And we still got, we got some good talent still coming out of Atlanta.
We got a lot of, one thing that is really cool about Atlanta too,
it's a lot of diversity as far as people might be listening to Young Thug,
but they might be listening to some rock as well now. You know, like they're opening their minds to a bunch of other stuff.
So that's amazing. I've seen the Dave Chappelle sketch you really
are hey man you know I don't know man well there you have it with backstage
little John's backstage it's the Breakfast Club little job Club, Little John. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, first of all, congratulations to Drake.
He actually got a plaque from Apple Music.
First album to achieve over one billion streams.
Wow.
And that is the views.
We should send Drake a plaque for being the only black rapper at the iHeart Festival this
weekend.
All right.
That's one for Platt.
Well, also, he put out this morning a film inspired by the album Views.
Please forgive me.
It's available on Apple Music if you want to check that out.
He actually did this short film with Rihanna's longtime music video collaborator, Anthony Mandler,
and they filmed it in Johannesburg, South Africa. So
if you guys have a chance to go check this out, I think it's
like 22 minutes long and
his woman in the
film is offered a million dollars to have sex
with a mysterious man,
so on and so forth. So you guys check that out.
They said that he adopted a South African
accent for the performance, inspired
by views when he went to a week
long visit to South
Africa in June's Secretive.
Why is that a plot line?
That's not like every girl who's kicking it with an athlete or entertainer.
Off you a little bit of money, and you do some strange things for some change.
Well, a million dollars isn't a little bit of money for people.
Yeah, ain't no poom-poom worth a million dollars.
I don't care who I am.
I don't care if I'm Steve Jobs, Bill Gates.
I'm not paying a million dollars for no vagina.
It's just not happening.
It's kind of like that movie Indecent Proposal.
Right.
That's exactly what it's like.
Right.
Okay.
Angelina Jolie versus Brad Pitt.
Now, they are saying that,
according to Brad Pitt,
sources on his side are saying
that she's so obsessed with becoming
head of the United Nations
that it actually caused quite a rift
in their relationship.
He didn't mind her going there to visit,
but he had a problem with her bringing the kids.
He had a problem with her bringing kids to places
that were war-torn countries like Lebanon and Iraq.
Is that why she has such a diverse family?
Like, she adopted all kind of different little kids,
like, different nationalities,
because she wants to be head of the United Nations,
so she can't do it in real life, she do it in the house?
Well, she does a lot of charity work,
and she might really feel passionate about that,
but she does want to become head of the United Nations.
So I guess they had a huge argument over whether or not
she could take the kids to Syria to help rebuild the war-torn country.
He doesn't want her to go do that.
He doesn't want the kids to go.
Basically, he feels like it's very dangerous.
Dangerous, yeah.
All right, so that was a line of contention.
He got a point.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure a lot of people would feel a little strangely about that.
But one thing is they're not going to have any financial issues because they have a prenup.
They were only married for two years.
I know they were together for a long time.
But they do have a prenup that spells out who gets what.
They have 12 total properties altogether.
A lot of that they got before they were married or before they were even dating.
Seven of those belonged to Brad Pitt.
Two of them belonged to Angelina Jolie. And three they bought got before they were married or before they were even dating. Seven of those belonged to Brad Pitt. Two of them belonged to Angelina Jolie.
And three they brought together before they got married.
But they just split those up.
So the only issue now is the custody of the kids.
And that's a big issue.
Now here's what Samuel L. Jackson had to say.
He was questioned about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
And Brad and Angelina overseas.
It's just sad, isn't it?
Is it?
It's life.
You know, people carry on. People do what they do.
I mean, there's a huge
segment of America
that still think that
you know, what he did to
Jennifer Anderson was just wrong, and
they're just overjoyed that the Wicked Witch
lost her husband or whatever, you know?
You know, but I don't know
why it's everybody's business or why
people care anyway. I don't know why it's everybody's business or why people care anyway.
I don't know why it's such a big deal either, man.
Yes, Samuel L. Jackson. I mean, white people acting like they dog died because Brad and Angelina knocked each other over.
Well, that's their couple.
That's their Beyonce and Jada.
As Mac Miller said, that's their Will and Jada.
So, all right, now let's discuss Empire versus 50 Cent.
Now, 50 had posted a picture of Empire viewers go, go season three premiere ratings down.
He put, wow, well, look at the bright side.
You can eat your trophies.
He said, that's a cookie.
I was talking to old girl, but you felt like you had to respond.
SMH, I love you, cookie.
I got a new show for you.
BMF coming soon.
Hashtag effing vodka.
Now, Taraji responded, Empire remains the number one scripted show on broadcast TV after premiering to
a 4.1 rating in adults 18 to
49 Wednesday. It continues a
trend of veteran shows opening well
below their premieres last season, but
in line with where they ended, it's even with the finale.
So she said, for the confused people,
do real research. Loose chains make so much
unnecessary noise. Still looking for that
damn scent sign. I guess it's obsolete.
Again, congrats on your success, Black
Man at 50 Cent.
And I agree with her, man. Like, it's so frivolous.
Like, this is petty. Like, why can't it be two
black shows that exist without the two black
shows trying to compete with each other?
Like, 50, we love power.
I love Empire, too.
They don't have to be beefing. Now, Taraji also posted
up something very positive for Notori. She said,
so proud of you, Notori. I want you to know I will never let any negativity come between the love I have to be beefing? Now, Taraji also posted up something very positive for Notori. She said, so proud of you, Notori.
I want you to know I will never let any negativity come between the love I have for my sisters.
As women, we put up with enough BS.
I will never add to that stress and heartache.
You are dope on power and in life.
Black girl magic.
Shine, baby, shine.
And I can't wait to see BMF either.
BMF honestly got the potential to be better than both power and empire.
Absolutely. I mean, why can't it just be another great show?
I'm sure it will be another great show. I mean, no, no, no. We want it to be
we want it to be better than those shows.
That's what life is about. We want
things to be better.
But I'm saying Empire and Power can both coexist
but BMF has the potential to knock both of them
out the water. A lot of different shows I watch for
different reasons. A lot of them I can't even compare to each other.
And Narco Season 2 is great.
If you haven't watched it yet, Narco Season 2, it's on Netflix. And lot of them I can't even compare to each other. And Narco season two is great. If you haven't watched it yet,
Narco season two,
it's on Netflix.
And that's what I'm saying.
BMF has the potential
to be as good
or better than Narco.
Absolutely.
Big Meachdom
was living the life.
If you've ever read
the BMF book,
you ever seen the documentary,
it's on Netflix now.
That TV show
has the potential
to be amazing.
Incredible, incredible.
