It's time. It's time.
Starting point is 00:02:17 It's time to wake up. DJing Angela Yee and Charlamagne Tha God. The Breakfast Club, bitches. The voice of the culture. People watch The Breakfast Club for light news and really be tuned in. It's one of my favorite shows to do. Just because y'all always keep it 100, y'all keep it real. They might not watch the news, but they're on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:02:36 They're on Facebook. They're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club. Get your ass up. You want to turn my mic on? Yo, yo, yo. Start it over from the top, yo. From the top, from the top, from the top. You do this every morning. That's my fault.
Starting point is 00:03:00 You can't just turn my mic on, bro. It's confusing. What'd I do to you? It's confusing. Good morning, USA! Peace to the planet. Guess what day it is. Guess what day it is. Hump Day. Yes, it's Wednesday. It's Hump Day.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I don't know where Yee's at. Who going to swing on drum for messing up your microphone this morning? He know better than to have my microphone messed up. Y'all got to get it together, first of all. Oh, what you mean? You're the board op. No, you guys are in here one day. You're out the next day.
Starting point is 00:03:42 And you know where to be found. You're on a plane going down those ways. I'm just saying. Relax, relax. Whoa, wow. That's a lot of pressure. This isn't getting off your chest yet. I know, right?
Starting point is 00:03:51 I walked in. He said, is that a banana in your pocket? I'm like, whoa. I did not say that. I didn't say that. Yes, it is a banana. It's a real banana. Guys, too early for the flirting.
Starting point is 00:03:59 That's not flirting, but that's what he said. What's wrong with you guys? Listen, we have workplace harassment rules in place for you me-tours, right? Stop me-touring each other, guys. Now, I don't know where he is. He's supposed to be quarantined, and she was on vacation. She was supposed to quarantine for 14 days. I looked in her story, and she was furniture shopping yesterday.
Starting point is 00:04:14 So I don't know what type of quarantine she's doing. Well, I don't want to hear her talk about Donald Trump at all, then. Donald Trump out there being a super spreader, clearly she is, too. Goodness gracious. Unless she has a test that came up negative that we don't know about. All right? Yeah, but you know, it still takes, what,
Starting point is 00:04:27 three, four days, five days before it could actually insinuate your system. So I seen her out and about. I was like, look at that. She's out and about. Listen, are y'all at the age yet
Starting point is 00:04:36 where y'all squint the hair better? I'm not that old. No. Okay. No. I was with a friend the other day. We were both squinting the hair each other.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Squinting the hair each other. And then she grabbed her glasses and put them on to hear me. I said, oh, you deaf, deaf. You deaf, deaf. I wonder if that's just a thing. Is that just me? I don't know. I'm the only person I can squint to hear better than I do?
Starting point is 00:04:52 Yes, that is you. I do turn down the music when I'm lost. I don't know what that does. Oh, we've been doing that. I turn the music all the way down when I'm lost. I don't know why. I don't know if that's going to affect or help anything. That don't have nothing to do with age.
Starting point is 00:05:02 You turn the music down so you can hear yourself think better. Oh, that's what it is. That's all that is. You got to hear yourself think better. That's all have nothing to do with age. You turn the music down so you can hear yourself think better. Oh, that's what it is. That's all that is. You got to hear yourself think better. That's what it is. Okay, well, we got a message from me. She says, I can't hear myself. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:05:12 But we can't hear you. You there? I can hear myself. I said, I can hear. Abby, can you read? It says, I can hear myself. Oh, I didn't see that. He didn't turn my mic on.
Starting point is 00:05:21 He didn't turn my mic on this whole time. You didn't turn the mic on. This show is trash. No, no, it's you. It is you. Let's go back home. If Angela would have squinted, she could have hurt herself much better. And she could have hurt all of us if she just squinted a little bit.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I heard all of you. I was talking. I could hear myself. Dramos never turned my mic on. No, he never really turned your mic on. I've seen every mic he turned on. You did not turn that one on right there. And you just got there.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Let's not play the game. You did not. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Start this bum ass show, please. I've been sitting here on camera on Revolt this whole time trying to talk. What are you doing, Drum? It was, y'all are not going to put this on. Jamos, Jamos, Jamos, let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Just take accountability. I was here. I did my part. You messed up. A lot of sexual tension between you and Envy this morning. No, we just keep messing up. It's not true. What do we got today?
Starting point is 00:06:04 What's on the docket? Let's get this show cracking. We got front page news. What are we talking about? Let's get this show cracking. Yeah, let's start with Kenneth Walker. That is Breonna Taylor's boyfriend. He did an interview with CBS this morning,
Starting point is 00:06:13 Gayle King, and we'll tell you what he had to say about that night. Okay, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. Ah, boy.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Did you at least wipe my mic down this morning, John? That's not my job. You didn't even turn my. Come on. Ah, boy. Did you at least wipe my mic down this morning, John? That's not my job. You didn't even turn my mic back on. Pause, bro. Your mic is on. They're going to ask a grown man to wipe your mic down. You don't know how to shake and wipe your damn self?
Starting point is 00:06:33 What the hell is going on today? Tell me. I'm out for one day and y'all just at each other? Let's get in some front page news. Now in Tuesday night football. That sounds so strange, man. Alright, the Buffalo Bills lost to the Titans 42-16. What else we got, Yeezy?
Starting point is 00:06:50 Well, let's talk about Breonna Taylor's boyfriend Kenneth Walker. Now, you know, he was in bed with her that night when the police barged in, knocked down the door and shot and killed Breonna Taylor. Well, the police have been saying that they identified themselves before entering the apartment and they also said they knocked on the door. They said they were the police have been saying that they identified themselves before entering the apartment.
Starting point is 00:07:05 And they also said they knocked on the door. They said they were the police. They said they waited 10 or 15 seconds, knocked again. They said they approached a third time. And it had been 45 seconds, if not a minute, before they finally said, let's go. Kenneth Walker has consistently from the beginning said a different story. Here's what he had to say on CBS this morning. Who did you think was at the door? If you're saying who is it, who is it? And they're not
Starting point is 00:07:27 answering. I didn't have a clue. That's why I grabbed the gun. I mean, if it was the police at the door and they just said we're the police, me or Breonna didn't have a reason at all not to open the door and see what they wanted. But did it ever cross your mind, a heavy knock like that? Maybe it's the police. That's why I never thought it was the police, because why would the police be coming here? That's a very good question. He said to me, if you heard a heavy knock at the door, would you think it must be the police?
Starting point is 00:07:52 I don't know why folks act like they wouldn't have done the same exact thing if they were in Kenneth Walker's position. That's the whole point of having firearms. That's what the Second Amendment is for. Someone buses in your crib, runs up in your crib, you defend your crib. Yeah, absolutely. If I don't hear police and I hit a door open up and I know everybody is in the room that I'm in. Yes, I'm letting all shots go at that door.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Who the hell coming in my door like that? And that's a very good problem is that the police were telling a different story this whole time. And I think that's what the issue is. Kenneth Walker was there. He's saying nobody identified themselves. He's never committed a crime. He is a licensed gun owner and somebody was knocking at the door, but the police have consistently been
Starting point is 00:08:29 saying that they did identify themselves. And that's where I think the issue is, is that they're trying to tell a different story. Well, his charges got dropped, so that's a beautiful thing. And also, too, man, he's right. Why would I be expecting the police? I'm not a criminal. I'm not committing no crimes. Why would I be expecting the police to be coming in a criminal. I'm not committing no crimes. Why would I be expecting the police to be coming in?
Starting point is 00:08:46 Kicking down my door. Like why? All right. Now, as we are getting ready for the final stretch in the campaign trail for Joe Biden and Donald Trump, former President Barack Obama will be hitting the campaign trail next week. They have not finalized his schedule, but they said some states under consideration for his appearances include Florida, North Carolina, Wisconsin, and more. Another thing that Joe Biden campaign has done, they launched their first ever battle rap ad. Oh, my God. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:09:12 This is the nonsense I'll be talking about. Yes, so they use the Ultimate Rap League. That's who they joined forces with, and they have MC's DNA and Charlie Clips. Here's a piece of that. You know why I don't vote? Because as a black man, I just feel like there's no hope. Our president telling people to go back to China, taking the coronavirus as a joke. And that's the part that frightened me.
Starting point is 00:09:35 When you choose a president, it's supposed to be a knockout. Then why this situation doesn't entice me? If you got the answers to get me out this dark path, my brother, enlighten me. We always telling each other to stay woke. That's why this time we got to use our voice and you have to vote. The facts show Biden has a plan for African-Americans. We're not dealing with your average Joe. If battle rappers are doing that on their own, great. But the campaign going to them, asking them to do it is whack because all you have to do in order to really get black people engaged is to actually put an agenda on the table for black people how about actually listening to what black people want what black people need and make those type of
Starting point is 00:10:15 policy commitments instead of giving us battle raps well imagine if you don't really watch the news so you wouldn't even know that there was a plan on the table imagine you didn't go online to read the plan but you do watch battle rap. And then you see your favorite battle rappers, DNA and Charlie Clips. I mean, and it wasn't like it was Joe Biden that approached them and said, let's do this. It was Kamau Marstow, who's the director of strategic communication. I honestly didn't think it sounded bad. If it's organic, yes.
Starting point is 00:10:41 But if it's not, that just seems like pandering. Like, I know how to get black people to listen. Let's go talk to the battle rappers. It does sound a little pandering. Come on, come on. But I did hear Joe Biden's going to Magic City this week and he's doing stripper fest. I'm in for that one, Joe Biden. Meet people where they are.
Starting point is 00:10:56 But I'm sure these artists wouldn't have done it if they also weren't for real supporting Joe Biden. Joe Biden, he knows nothing about battle rap. He's pandering. His team probably said, hey, this is hot right now. Let's, he knows nothing about battle rap. He's pandering. His team probably said, hey, this is hot right now. Let's F with this for a little bit. Like I said, I'm sure they're going to do a strip affair soon, too. Kamal, you know what you need to be doing, Kamal, since you want to be strategic.
Starting point is 00:11:14 You saw Donald Trump had a virtual rally on Rush Limbaugh's show for two hours. How about, you know, get Senator Harris and Joe Biden to come do that? I don't know. Maybe the Breakfast Club. Donald Trump talks to his base directly via radio. Why don't you talk to yours directly via radio instead of doing battle raps? Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:11:34 All right, well, that's your front page news. I'm kind of good on him, though, man. I'll be honest. I'm telling the truth. I'm kind of good on him. Listen, here's the thing. Biden is definitely an average Joe. Joe Biden has the opportunity to be as progressive
Starting point is 00:11:44 in regards to black issues as Lyndon B. Johnson was. I don't know if he will. But I don't believe in Joe Biden. But I do believe in us. And I believe in people on the ground like Intel Freedom. I believe in people like us in the media to keep pushing the line. And holding Biden and all the Democrats nationally and locally accountable if we get them in on November 3rd. So, you know, that's my take on it.
Starting point is 00:12:05 All right, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:12:18 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.
Starting point is 00:12:36 I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.
Starting point is 00:12:52 I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullet holes, yeah. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

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.
Starting point is 00:13:37 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? Thank you. 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. So y'all, this is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Niminy here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm darling. I'm darling.
Starting point is 00:15:50 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?
Starting point is 00:16:03 Yo, good morning, Envy. Good morning, Angela. Good morning. Morning. What up? Yeah, who's this? Yo, good morning, Envy. Good morning, Angela. Good morning, Sean. Morning. What's up? Yeah, what's going on, man? Hey. What's up?
Starting point is 00:16:10 I want to talk about all these parents, right, that are wondering and speculating if they're going to send their kids trick-or-treating for Halloween. Like, come on. This is the reason why everything is spreading. Like, what are we prioritizing here? Like, you got your kids, and you're sacrificing their health and changes.
Starting point is 00:16:28 I don't get it. Like, there's a big thing going on about all these parents wanting to send their kids out for Halloween trick-or-treating, and there's a virus going on. Like, this could even be an issue. Well, listen, in their defense, Halloween is very mask-friendly, so you would be following coronavirus protocol. Those masks are not good enough to block COVID.
Starting point is 00:16:47 They already are. But I get it. You know, parents, you know, it's a tough decision for parents. Kids look forward to trick or treating, so they're trying to do it as soon as possible. I don't know about that. It's not tough. It is. It's a tough decision.
Starting point is 00:16:58 Your child is not going to, like, literally die if he doesn't have Halloween. He's going to die if you make him go to Halloween. Nah, but they're doing certain things where you might not have to do things. Like, for instance, I know my kid's school is actually doing trick-or-treating in different classes. This is the reason why the virus is spreading in the first place. So we're afraid to inconvenience for a little bit. Right, but, you know, they're doing safe things.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Like, I know my school is doing trick-or-treating where it's different. I think they're doing it in different classrooms, so kids go to classroom to classroom to trick-or-treat. But they're not going outside, though. Let me ask you a question, King. Let me ask you a question. If Donald Trump can have rallies, Cardi B can have
Starting point is 00:17:39 birthday parties, people can celebrate Lakers wins outside of Staples Center, and it's all good. Why can't kids trick or treat? Nah, they can't. They're not supposed to. That's why we're having all this stuff going on now. I heard Emory talking yesterday. He's saying he's missing the party. He missed DJing. He missed going out. You know why?
Starting point is 00:17:55 It's because those people are doing what they're doing. If we keep sending our kids out there to trick or treat, you're never going to be able to DJ in the club again. Well, you know what? I wasn't even allowed to trick-or-treat when you were able to go out. He couldn't leave her porch, man. He was stuck in a gate, so... No, that's not true.
Starting point is 00:18:14 I just... I was definitely... By the time I got older, I just wasn't... My parents wouldn't let me go trick-or-treating. It just wasn't safe like that. No, no. We're missing the point here. It has nothing to do with your troubled childhood. It has nothing to do with your troubled childhood. It has nothing to do with coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I'm just saying, trick-or-treat is not the biggest deal in the world. I said the same thing growing up with Jehovah's Witnesses. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:18:35 I hated on everybody that was trick-or-treating. You'll be fine. We have all that as kids. Guess what my favorite day was? My favorite day was November 1st, the day after when my dad bought me all the Halloween candy half price.
Starting point is 00:18:48 He bought you the stale candy? Yeah, who's frying chicken early this morning? Hello, who's this? Hello, good morning. Can you take us off speak or take us off Bluetooth? Oh, I'm not on Bluetooth. Are you working in a train station? Yes, I'm on the train.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Listen, I've been trying for you to recognize the WNBA. You give out all of the scores, which you never do for the WNBA. And I want you to put some respect on Super's name. The WNBA is not even in season. The WNBA is not playing anymore. The Los Angeles Aces just... I have been trying, listen, I have been trying to get in touch with him since he's been giving out the scores for months.
Starting point is 00:19:27 When the WNBA won their season on Tuesday, last Tuesday, he never gave them any props. We did shout out the— Or maybe we didn't. I don't know if we shouted out the— We did not. No, we didn't shout out the WNBA. Who did the Aces play? The Aces played the Storm.
Starting point is 00:19:41 The Storm. He never does. Well, I'm sorry. What's your favorite team? The New'm sorry. What's your favorite team? The New York Liberty. What's your favorite team? What's your favorite team? Mine is the New York Liberty.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Because he said that. My favorite team is the Las Vegas Aces because of Columbia, South Carolina's own Asia Walsh and WNBA MVP this year. Okay? My favorite player is Sue Bird and Diana Taraji. Aja Wilson will watch both of them. So could you please, next year when the WNBA starts, please give them a shout-out, recognize them for whatever reason. You give the scores, but you never do for us.
Starting point is 00:20:19 We'll give the scores. I didn't even do baseball scores this year. They're in the middle of the playoffs. We only do the football and basketball. Baseball is trash. But I will even do baseball scores this year. They're in the middle of the playoffs. We only do the football and basketball. Baseball is trash. But I will. Ain't nobody on steroids. Baseball is trash. Trash. Ain't nobody on steroids.
Starting point is 00:20:32 You know what? Goodbye, Mama. Nobody on steroids. It's just not good as it used to be. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. The Dominican in the room disagrees. If you need to, Vin, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:20:50 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.
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Why can't I trade my own 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.

Starting point is 00:26:42 What's up? i want everybody to know we will never get justice for brown along their division within the black community we got other black people criticizing black people for what they're doing and not doing we all need to come together because we have a division in our community it's not gonna bring justice to brown louisville country checking out. Well, that's never going to happen that all of us are together because black people are not
Starting point is 00:27:07 monolithic. But it doesn't matter. As long as the right people are together, the right black people are together, things will get done. I get what he's saying.
Starting point is 00:27:13 We need to be together regardless if we agree with each other or not. It's never happened in the history of life. But we need to be fighting and killing each other. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:18 This is about right and wrong and that was dead wrong. We need to grind. It's never happened in the history of life. No matter how you feel about anything, I don't think any black person should feel like it was justified to kill Breonna Taylor.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I mean, everybody's entitled to their opinion, but I'm just telling him like there was never... What? That's not even an opinion. It wasn't justified. She didn't do anything. I mean, you have people that will try to justify it because they look at different details of the case than we do. I mean, that's like life, though.
Starting point is 00:27:42 I can look at drama and see one thing. And we can look at drama and see another. But that's my point. You will never have unity and group operation amongst all black people because black people are not monolithic, and that's just a ridiculous thing to even strive for. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Her getting killed was wrong. I don't think there's any way you could look at it. She didn't commit a crime. No, her getting killed was definitely wrong. There's no way that anybody could say other than that. But get it off your chest. I think y'all missed the whole point of what I was saying. I'm not talking about Breonna Taylor.
Starting point is 00:28:06 I'm talking about just in general as black people. I was just talking about black people that we should stick with each other. We shouldn't fight each other and shoot each other whether we have a difference of opinion or not. But anyway, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We got rumors on the way? Yes.

Starting point is 00:29:22 And he also announced that he is leaving Motown. So he's been on Motown forever. So that's a big deal. And he put out two new songs as well. So we actually have one of those songs for you right now. And this song is called Can't Put It in the Hands of Fate. It's a call to action with Rhapsody, Cordae, Chica, and Busta Rhymes. You can die wearing a hoodie. All right, sometimes we got to find our creative. I defeated Father Time, was raised by Mother Nature. In the projects, tenement walls, sudden withdrawals.

All the proceeds from Where Is Our Love Song will be donated to

Steve went to 70 years old. Wow. What kind of contract was that? How did you sign for 60 years? Well, maybe he didn't want to leave, and he probably kept on signing again. He should get his master's back.
Starting point is 00:31:55 I don't know if he got his master's. I'm sure Stevie got his master's. I hope he has his master's. I mean, I can almost guarantee Stevie wanted to have his master's. Come on. All right, now Oprah has surprised Texans. She did some get out the vote calls and she's putting in a huge effort

It's a novel about gay culture within the hip-hop scene by James Earl Hardy. Okay. So they actually started filming this week. All right, Jada Pinkett Smith says she was mom- shamed because of how she raised Jaden and Willow. They weren't raised in the typical way.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Here's what she had to say, of course, on Red Table Talk. I have had my fair share of mom shaming. I felt like me and Jaden were shunned. Like, they're too different. They're too weird. Every one of us has mom shamed. Let's own it. More black mothers are shamed than any other group.
Starting point is 00:33:50 I've heard, are all those kids yours? That's an insult. Because of the pandemic, two-thirds of mommies are getting mommy shamed. Who are you to tell me I'm raising my kids wrong just because I'm raising them different than you raise yours? Like, you should only mom shame someone if they are not raising their kids at all or if they are treating their kids horribly. Abusive. Yeah, and in that case, it's not shaming. It's just you telling the truth and the person's feeling being hurt. But it's like, who are you to tell me that I'm raising my kids wrong?
Starting point is 00:34:20 People do that all the time on social media. They be like, why are you holding the baby's head like that? Or like, everybody wants to chime in. all the time on social media. They be like, why are you holding the baby's head like that? Or like everybody wants to chime in. All the time. Why would you pay that much for something for your kid? Why would you? People do that all the time. Yep.
Starting point is 00:34:32 All right. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right. And Stevie Wonder, he definitely gained control over all of his masters in 1971. Okay. Yes. Wow.

Starting point is 00:35:09 insurance call them at 800 general or visit the general.com some restrictions apply it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get some front page news now on tuesday night football the titans beat the Bills 42-16. All right, now, what else are we talking about, Yee? Well, let's talk about day two of the Amy Coney Barrett confirmation hearings. That was yesterday. And a lot of things that happened. She declined to preview her views on abortion in Roe versus Wade.
Starting point is 00:35:42 She also was questioned by Kamala Harris on the Affordable Care Act and what her agenda is there. Listen to this. More than 9 million Americans have already voted and millions more will vote while this illegitimate committee process is underway. A clear majority of Americans
Starting point is 00:36:02 want whomever wins this election to fill the seat. And my Republican colleagues know that. Yet they are deliberately defying the will of the people in their attempt to roll back the rights and protections provided under the Affordable Care Act. And if they succeed, it will result in millions of people losing access to health care at the worst possible time. You really have to be a cruel and evil person to roll back a person's health care at a time like this. Same way I don't understand what's the holdup with the economic stimulus packages. You know people need money to do right by those people. It shouldn't be that difficult.
Starting point is 00:36:38 All right. Well, Amy Coney Barrett had this to say about policies and how she is not biased in any way. I certainly hope that all members of the committee have more confidence in my integrity than to think that I would allow myself to be used as a pawn to decide this election for the American people. And so I promise you that if I were confirmed and if an election dispute arises, you both of which are ifs that i would very seriously undertake that process and i would consider every relevant factor i can't commit to you right now but i do assure you of my integrity and i do assure you that i would take that question very seriously yeah i mean it's not her fault rbg passed away and the people in power made a decision they trying to push her through as they made her the nominee and they
Starting point is 00:37:24 trying to push her through it's not it's nominee and they're trying to push her through. It's not her fault. And it's going to happen. Republicans are saying that they're confident that she will be confirmed. There's nothing magical that's going to happen. And there's no way that Democrats will be able to block her as a nominee. I mean, that's because the Republicans are in the position of power to be able to do it.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Simple as that. I mean, I don't know how they call a process illegitimate. Like, just because you don't like what someone is doing, does that make it illegitimate? Yeah, I mean, I'm sure if it was the other way around, the Republicans would be doing the same thing. All right, now the iPhone 12, the company announced
Starting point is 00:37:58 for, yeah, the Democrats will be doing the same thing. All right, the iPhone 12, they have announced four new iPhones in a virtual event that happened yesterday. The iPhone 12, they have announced four new iPhones in a virtual event that happened yesterday. The iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Pro, the iPhone 12 Pro Max and a new smaller iPhone 12 Mini. All of these phones have 5G so they can connect to the next generation high speed wireless networks. Of course, they're going to be expensive. Now they're available for preorder on October 16th and instore on October 23rd for the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro.
Starting point is 00:38:27 For the iPhone 12 Mini and for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, you can pre-order those November 6th, and they'll be in stores on November 13th. What happened to all those folks who were screaming that 5G causes coronavirus? Because I got a feeling that they're going to be in line for them goddamn iPhones that are full of 5G. Man, I was outside eating a couple of months ago, and this guy came up screaming about 5G and was harassing me for literally 30 minutes and wouldn't go away. But the iPhone 12 will not come with free headphones, by the way.
Starting point is 00:38:57 You know how you get your iPhone in the packaging? You get the charging brick. You get the headphones. They're not going to have those at all. So you don't get to charge it either? Nope. That's crazy. And these things are expensive. the charging brick, you get the headphones, they're not going to have those at all. So you don't get a charger either? Nope. That's crazy. And these things are expensive. And you don't get those headphones.
Starting point is 00:39:12 That's right. Imagine you pay $1,000 and then you still got to buy the charging brick and you still got to buy the headphones. I don't even want that no more. I just want my phone to ring. I want my phone to ring and text. That's all. I'm cool on everything else. I really am. I don't need the camera. I don't really need social media. I just really want my phone to ring really am. I don't need the camera. I don't really need social media. I just really want my phone to ring and text.
Starting point is 00:39:27 You don't want the camera? No. No. You carry a regular camera when your daughter goes cheerleading and all that? You don't take pictures now? Because I don't carry a camera with me. What happens when a Karen runs up on you and you want to film her? Who does that?
Starting point is 00:39:40 I don't do stuff like that. You don't take pictures? When have you ever seen me be the picture guy? I'm not the picture guy. I mean, you don't post pictures, but don't you keep pictures for yourself? Your daughter's chair leading or you hugging a tree? You want to send to the family maybe? No.
Starting point is 00:39:53 You don't FaceTime your moms? No. You don't post pictures of your t-shirts if you're doing a promo? Yeah, but I get somebody else to take them. I do. I always get somebody else to take it and send it to me and then I post it on social. This guy's crazy.
Starting point is 00:40:08 You face tell your mom, no. I don't. I call my mom. Take a picture of yourself wearing a t-shirt? Yeah, I'll do that. No, I'm saying like if I take a, and if I am taking a picture of somebody, a t-shirt is because I'm promoting somebody else's t-shirt.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Like this morning, I'm wearing Angela Rye's t-shirt. We built this for free. So I'm definitely going to post this with the mask. You know what I mean? Now, what if you don't have a camera? That's t-shirt. Like this morning, I'm wearing Angela Rye's t-shirt. We built this for free. So I'm definitely going to post this with the mask. You know what I mean? Now, what if you don't have a camera? What if a person doesn't have a phone and you want to ask somebody to take a picture? You don't have your camera. You're going to need me to take your picture.
Starting point is 00:40:35 I guess what I'm simply telling you, simple-minded people, is that I don't like distractions. I think that all is, because all of these phones are doing is taking away our time and our attention. And if you look at 90% of the stuff on your phone, do you use on a regular basis? 90%. 90%. Like, look at all the apps and everything else that you got on your phone. Do you use all of this stuff all the time? I actually only have apps on my phone that I use.
Starting point is 00:40:57 See, mine is connected to my kids' apps, so I got all types of kids' games on here. See what I'm saying? But I do that to see what my kids are downloading, you know. I don't even know what 90% of this stuff is. Like, my wife downloaded Life 360. I think that keeps tabs on here. See what I'm saying? But I do that to see what my kids are downloading. You know? I don't even know what 90% of this stuff is. Like, my wife downloaded Life 360. I think that keeps tabs on you or something like that.
Starting point is 00:41:10 It keeps tabs on the family. You can see all the family members there. Yeah, usually for elderly. Yeah, I have that for my parents. I'm about to download that for my boyfriend too.
Starting point is 00:41:17 That's what you're saying. I know that's not for elderly. In case you fall and can't get up. You can see where all your kids at at all times. You can see
Starting point is 00:41:24 where you're at at all times. You should have that in you. You have a family. I have something on the app where it's called share your location where I can tell where my kids are with the phone. Yeah, we got that. What if you fall, you can't get up, and you want to take a picture of yourself in a T-shirt on the ground?
Starting point is 00:41:39 If you fall. By the way, if you fall and you can't get up and the first thing you're thinking about is taking a picture, that's the problem. That's what's wrong with us as a society. Gotta take a picture of this t-shirt. Gotta take a picture. I just fell. Instead of calling 911 for help, let me take a picture of myself on the ground and post it to the gram and tell everybody, look at me, I just fell.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Take help. If you fall, I'm going to take a picture. Then I'm going to call 911. I ain't going to lie. But if you take the picture, that's fine. But that's our problem. That's our problem as a society. What if you're getting harassed by the police and you want to go live?
Starting point is 00:42:08 So people can see what's happening. I don't think that would be on my mind in that moment, to be honest with you. I don't knock anybody who does it. That's been beneficial for a lot of people if you're nervous and you're scared. It has. But as a black man, I wouldn't be reaching for my phone in that scenario. You know, I thought about that this morning. I'm walking from the garage, right?
Starting point is 00:42:24 And I had this banana in my pocket, right? Pause, pause, pause. And I was like, what? I'm like, if a cop sees me right now, sees this banana in my pocket, I think it's a gun. Should I reach for my phone? I swear. You would love to get stopped and frisked by a nice big cop, wouldn't you? See, you take things too far.
Starting point is 00:42:40 All right. That is your problem. Is that a banana in your pocket? Given your history, you probably think there's a d your banana in your pocket. Given your history, you probably think there's a dildo in your pocket. Oh, drum.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Dropping a clues bomb for drum. Coming in bottom with a ninth inning. Hitting a single to get us a run. It always comes down through the bottom.
Starting point is 00:42:57 It always comes to the bottom. All right. Yo, banana in the tailpipe. Oh, my goodness. You know what? I can't even be real
Starting point is 00:43:03 and honest with you guys. You know what? Forget it. Phones are distracting though. I don't care what y'all say. I don't need my phone doing all this complicated stuff no more. I want my phone to be as simple as possible nowadays. Alright, so is that the topic we talking about today? Phones, huh?
Starting point is 00:43:15 What do we want from our phones? 800-585-1051. The new iPhone 12 is coming out. Oh God. Charlamagne says he just wants it to ring and text. He don't want anything else on there. He don't care about the internet. He don't care about the camera. Have y'all not watched The Social Dilemma on Netflix yet?
Starting point is 00:43:32 Oh, my God. Please. Have you ever read Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport? Please do. What do you want on your phone? I have so many things on my phone. Of course, I got my bike app where I ride. I got Eventbrite where I do a lot of my events.
Starting point is 00:43:43 I got so many different things. I got my title app on here to listen to music. I got Cash app to get some bread. I got all my banking apps on here. Yeah, I need my phone to do more than just text and call. Definitely need that. Alright. 800-585-1051. Let's talk about it. What do you want on your phone? Do you just want
Starting point is 00:44:00 a regular degular phone? Let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic. Break it down. 800-585-1051.

Starting point is 00:44:36 Good morning. Now, if you just joined us, Angela Yee told us about the iPhone 12, which is coming out in the next, I guess, what, 30 days or something? Mm-hmm. You can pre-order, yeah. Yeah, you can pre-order. So we were asking 800-585-1051. Charlamagne says he only wants his phone to call and text.
Starting point is 00:44:53 Yeah, I'm not interested in all the bells and whistles. I want my phone to ring. I want my phone to text. All that other stuff is a distraction. I average four hours and 27 minutes of screen time a day. I refuse to let these people have my mind and my time. I don't live in my phone. I'm too busy enjoying the moment. And my oldest daughter has a phone and I limit her consumption of it as well because those smartphones are breeding dumb
Starting point is 00:45:14 people. And I encourage everybody to watch The Social Dilemma on Netflix or read Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport and you will really understand how addictive these cell phones are. I use my phone about 6-7 hours a day. Whoa, you guys use your phone a lot a day. Check your screen time. I did. My phone is about 2.5 hours a day
Starting point is 00:45:38 because I don't use my phone all day. I use the Waze app when I drive to work every morning. So that's 45 minutes to an hour coming and 45 minutes to an hour going back home. I use the Waze app because the Waze app helps me with to work every morning. So that's 45 minutes to an hour coming and 45 minutes to an hour going back home. I use the Waze app because the Waze app helps me with traffic. It helps me with police on the road. So I definitely use that app each and every day. And then when I ride my
Starting point is 00:45:53 bike, I use all my apps for riding, which is Strava or the Relive app. So I use all my apps. I get a lot of texts. That I do. I get a lot a lot of texts. Like right do. I get a lot a lot a lot of texts. Like right now I literally have 516 unread text messages.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Goodness gracious. I get a lot of text messages. So I mean I use my app a lot. I do a lot of events so I use the Eventbrite app to check on what's going on. I also use my apps for my cars to start my cars to make sure my cars are warm. I always check the cameras on my app to make sure the houses are good that I own.
Starting point is 00:46:25 So I use my apps for everything. Yeah, I think it's important to have these apps. Like, truthfully, I check my phone when I'm at home and I'm not doing, like, work and doing the breakfast club. I probably put my phone down and check it, like, every two hours. Yeah, but apps are very addictive, too. And, like, you know, when you read these stories about how app developers keep us addicted to our smartphones and, some, I remember when you read Digital Minimalism, there was this whistleblower in Silicon Valley who spoke just like a whistleblower did in the tobacco industry 30 years ago.
Starting point is 00:47:00 So it's literally the same type of process that keeps you addicted to your phone, that keeps you addicted to cigarettes. Yeah, I don't have a lot of apps on my phone, but I do use my phone for things like booking flights, booking rooms, ordering food. I have all of those apps on here. Of course, I use Instagram and Twitter, WhatsApp. Yeah, but I also use FaceTime. Like, you know, because of COVID, I can't see my parents the way that I want to see my parents. So I FaceTime them two, three times a day just to speak to them. So the kids could say hi and we have conversations and we do normal stuff what we would do in person.
Starting point is 00:47:32 But I talk to them over FaceTime because I can't go see them. I'm out and about. My kids go to school. So I don't want to go to my parents house or have my parents come to my house and possibly get coronavirus. I'm with you. I wouldn't want a lot. I wouldn't want a phone that only makes phone calls. I do. And I just don't want to be a junkie because social media apps are deliberately addictive. And when you watch these
Starting point is 00:47:52 shows like Social Dilemma or read books like Digital Minimalism, you realize the people that create these apps and create these phones don't even let their kids use them. Like purposely. Like purposely don't let their kids use them. But they'll feed them to our kids. It's like, no, I can't do it.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I wanted to ring, text, and that's it. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Mike from South Florida. Hey, Mike, what's going on? We're talking about phone use and what you would want on your phone, bro. Yeah, man, I would say I just really want the phone, texting, like to call people, texting,
Starting point is 00:48:23 podcasts and music, man. It's just too much. I'm 27. A lot of people in my age group, we just kind of just, everybody be on the phone, you know, even though we're supposed to be social distancing. I'm with some people, and people just be stuck on their phone, man. It's ridiculous nowadays. Y'all would have hated Tupac, Keep Your Head Up, and This Generation.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Okay? Y'all can't stop. That's probably one of the least screamed songs. Yeah. Because Pac is telling you to keep your head up. All y'all do is keep your heads down. Thank you, brother. You can trust me.
Starting point is 00:48:52 But that Waze app, I stay on Waze app. Even if I know where I'm going, I have the Waze app on in my car. It guides me. It helps me with potholes. Your car don't got navigation? Yeah, but Waze tells you about traffic. If there's traffic, it'll give you an alternative route. It tells you about potholes.
Starting point is 00:49:04 If there's potholes on the road. It tells you about traffic. If there's traffic, it'll give you an alternative route. It tells you about potholes. If there's potholes on the road, it'll tell you about police on the road. It tells you everything about what's going on with Waze. So that's why I always use Waze, regardless of where I'm going. All right, let's go to another line. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Tim. Tim from Georgia's Good. What's up, bro?
Starting point is 00:49:20 What's up, Chin? Why they call you Chin? Tim, Tim Matisse. All right, man, come on, man. Oh, Tim. Okay. Oh, Tim, I thought he said Chin, too. Tim and a T. Sorry, man. Come on, man. Oh, Tim. Okay. Oh, Tim. I thought he said Chin, too.
Starting point is 00:49:26 So we're talking about your iPhone or your phone. You know, you have a lot of apps on your phone. How do you use your phone, bro? Yeah, I can use the basic Instagram, Snapchat, you know, just that. That's a lot, though. Check your screen time. What's your screen time, King? Look at your screen time.
Starting point is 00:49:43 What's your screen time? Don't drive it right now. I'm done right now. That's not safe. Yeah, don't look at your screen time. What's your screen time, King? Look at your screen time. What's your screen time? I'm driving right now. I'm done right now. That's not safe. Yeah, don't look at your screen time right now. Why? You text and drive any other time? You post on Instagram and drive any other time?
Starting point is 00:49:54 Why can't you? No, I don't do that. I don't do that. Okay. I feel like with the phone, it all has the same shit. We should be the indestructible. We should be the indestructible charges. We should break all the time. We should be the indestructible. We should be the indestructible chargers.
Starting point is 00:50:06 These shits break all the time. They do that on purpose, though. Yeah, they do, so we can buy these guns. And the new 5G, listen, man, you better watch out for that. That's the new thing. Here we go. You got 5G on your phone right now. And, Angelique, you're promoting it. You're on the commercial, shorty.
Starting point is 00:50:25 Come on. You know what's coming up next. What's next? 6G? I don't know. What's next? You know what's coming up next. That's all I can say.
Starting point is 00:50:33 They're going to come get me. Yo, have a good night's day. Hi, yo, Charlamagne. Yes, sir. What's up, my boy? All right, King. They're going to come get him. 800-585-1051. We're talking about phones.
Starting point is 00:50:44 All right, the new iPhone 12 is coming out in less than 30 days. And we're asking, you know, what do you want on your phone? Charlamagne said he just wants phone and text. I need more than that. I need my apps because I do so many different things on this phone. So let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about the new iPhone 12 is coming out. Now, Charlamagne says he just wants the phone to text and call. I just want my phone. I want to be able to call people. I want people to be able to call me. I want to be able to text people, and that's it.
Starting point is 00:51:16 I don't need all the other bells and whistles. Now, there is apps I do like on my phone. Like, I listen to podcasts. I got the podcast app. I listen to titles, so I have the title app. Music and podcasts is different. Everything else, I don't necessarily think I need.
Starting point is 00:51:32 Alright, well, you and I, I mean, I like my apps. There's a lot of apps that I use and I continue to use every single day. I use the damn weather app every day just to check the weather. I use, like I said, the Waze app, which helps me out a lot. I use of course all the banking apps and even for my daughter that's in college
Starting point is 00:51:48 right now, I get to check to see how much, if she needs more money for food or whatever she needs. You don't think you're giving that phone too much power though? Because what happens when you lose your phone? You know what I'm saying? What happens if somebody steals your phone? I have two phones. I get another phone. Everybody can't afford two phones. I'm just saying, I don't feel like we should give
Starting point is 00:52:04 that phone that much power. You know what I mean? I have my period tracker on my phone, so I know when my period's coming. I have Park NYC, so I can pay for parking using my phone app instead of having to use my credit card every time. That's a goddamn shame. First of all, you've had your period for a long time. Okay, you do not need a period tracker on your phone, ye, to know when your period is coming. Actually, I'm going to tell you why.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Because then you know when you're ovulating. You know exactly what day to expect it. There's no surprises. As women, sometimes you forget. And then it also keeps track of like if you don't get it every 28 days. Some people get it like, you know, a couple of days off. So it's just good to know. So you need your phone to know when your period is coming on now?
Starting point is 00:52:43 Yeah. It helps. And the other thing we use the phone for but everybody has a different type and sometimes our schedule changes
Starting point is 00:52:51 like if you go on vacation you're around other women and so you're like man, I usually get it this time but now I'm getting it this time. I track, I guess I would follow my wife's period if I was trying to have a baby
Starting point is 00:53:01 then we follow to know what day she's ovulating. Yeah, if you're trying to have a baby that's a good. You know, mind your, Charlamagne. I've always had period tracker on my phone. All I'm saying is it's pretty
Starting point is 00:53:11 handy. And we have cameras for the juice bar on the phone so I can see what's happening at the juice bar. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? It's Brooklyn. Peace. Peace, Brooklyn. Brooklyn. Where you from? I know you ain I got no app on your phone. Let me tell you, Sterman, I agree with all of you to a certain extent.
Starting point is 00:53:29 I think with Charlemagne Tha God, it's an age factor, man. After a while, you don't need all these apps on your phone. I just need my phone to ring, check with my family. Word. But then as the media is changing, you need some news apps, you need games, you need this, you need that. After a while, you kind of become a hoarder on your own phone. Yep.
Starting point is 00:53:48 And I think what makes it worse is that the phone companies, they know that they want to keep us on the phone. And now they tell us how much time we spend on our phones. You know what I mean? Yep. So it gets to a certain point that you get to the same age, I just need to go ahead and make a phone call, check on my family, and I'm good. That's it. All right. Thank you, man. I tell age, I just need to go ahead and make a phone call and check on my family and I'm good. That's it. Alright, thank you, man. I tell you, I like the FaceTime. I'm able to see my mother. I'm able to see my dad.
Starting point is 00:54:11 That's actually my least favorite feature. I hate FaceTime. I'm like, why? I've been looking at some people and I'm like, why? I only use FaceTime with my mom and my dad and my daughter. When people FaceTime me, I don't answer FaceTime. Don't phone shame him. My kids love it for their grandparents. I get it, but me? I'm me, I don't answer FaceTime. Don't phone shame him. My kids love it for their grandparents.
Starting point is 00:54:27 I get it. But me, I'm like, I don't know. I love it. I get to see my daughter every day. Hello, who's this? Good morning. This is Natalie. Hey, good morning, Natalie. We're talking your phone. Do you just want a basic phone or you need those apps? Before I answer that question, I have
Starting point is 00:54:43 to say I love you guys. I listen to you guys every morning, and I'm thoroughly entertained on my one-hour dashboard. Thank you. We appreciate that. I love you back. I think you guys need to pay Charlamagne more for Donkey of the Day because that's a work of art. Well, thank you. You don't need to leave DJ and be at home.
Starting point is 00:55:00 Do you listen on the app? No, I don't listen on the app. I listen on my radio. So what do you think about the app? I did watch Social Dilemma to talk about what Charlamagne was saying, and I think it's all fraud. We really need to get off of these phones, and I'll take it a step back and say we don't need any cell phones.
Starting point is 00:55:18 No, I'm not going to go back to that. Why do you think we don't need a cell phone? I thought you was good when you said Charlamagne was raised, but now you say we don't need phones. I don't know about that one. I'm talking to you guys, but I don't like to be easily accessed. I don't like people calling me 24-7, knowing where I'm at. So how do you get messages to your parents or your mom?
Starting point is 00:55:34 What you do, pigeons? How do you get messages around? There's pay phones. There's landlines. I am not touching no nasty-ass pay phone during COVID. Well, there's landlines. You can use landlines. True.
Starting point is 00:55:45 What about if you get in a car accident right now? Like, how are you going to call for help? How do we call for help after the day? That is very true. My homeboy, Shane Gandy, dead. God bless the dead. He was 21 years old. He was from West Virginia.
Starting point is 00:55:57 He never had a cell phone. He used to call it a space box. And he used to always, his memory used to be crazy. Because he could just, that's all he had. He didn't use GPS. He didn't use navigation. So he just knew where he was going at all times. I remember when he came to New York, he walked to New York one time and knew exactly where to go.
Starting point is 00:56:15 And he was all the way from West Virginia. Exactly. You're allowing your phone to break too much now. I agree. I ain't going that far, Mama, but thank you. You have a good one. Have you ever thought about back in the day, how did you know how to get to somebody's house? Map.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Not even just a map. It was descriptive. You'd be like, yo, you're going to come down this road, you're going to see a tree on the right-hand side. Then you're going to see a purple mailbox, and when you get to that purple mailbox, you make a left. That's the type of stuff that keeps your brain sharp and quick. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:40 Yeah. I keep my phone. Yeah, I'm with you. I keep my phone. I used to hate the days of MapQuest. Then you miss your exit, you got to go back to the MapQuest to figure out where you going. Nah, B, nah. All right, what's the moral of the story?
Starting point is 00:56:51 The moral of the story is do what works for you, but just know that these apps are deliberately addictive. So, you a junkie. All right. We're all junkies. All right. Now, we got rumors on the way, E? Yes, and some nudes have leaked, and we'll tell you whose nudes they are and what you had to say about them. But there might be some positive news coming soon.
Starting point is 00:57:12 We'll tell you what that is. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Now, a couple of days ago, a young lady called. Her name was Pinkus. And she was going through some problems. Let's flash back. So I've been out of work since April. And I was already with my job living paycheck to paycheck. So without those paychecks, it's really kind of been hard. And it seems like bad stuff just keeps happening.
Starting point is 00:57:50 But things have just been getting worse and worse. My floor in my kitchen has a huge hole in it. It fell apart. My front door, it won't open, so we have to go through the back door. My car broke down. First of all, I want you to breathe for a second. Hold on. I know right now it feels I want you to breathe for a second. Hold on, Mom. I know right now it feels like the world, the sky is falling.
Starting point is 00:58:09 I know you're probably dealing with anxiety, slight depression, all types of stuff right now. I promise you this will not last. We said we would help her out on air. We gave her Cash App out, and she's on the line right now. Are you here, Pink Kiss? I am, yes. Can you hear me?
Starting point is 00:58:23 Yes, yes. What's happening, Queen? how is everything going now? You called the other day. And just tell the people why you called and what's going on now. Good morning. So, yeah, I've really been trying to get through for a while. But when you guys gave out my cash, which I wasn't expecting, a few people, several people actually donated,
Starting point is 00:58:45 and I was really surprised by that. So I just was really trying to press the call so that I can say, I said I wasn't going to cry, so I can say thank you. I'm sorry. No, no problem. I said I wasn't going to cry. So I just really wanted to say thank you to each and every person that took from their household to give to mine. Because of that, I was able to do a few things that I wasn't
Starting point is 00:59:14 able to do for months. And I'm just eternally grateful. And I want everyone to know, no matter how much you gave, I am so grateful and i'm so appreciative and all of your kind words and your prayers it just it touched me more than words can um express i'm just i'm just so happy and i'm just saying thank you because nobody had to take from their house to get to mine i'm a complete stranger, they don't know me, and they did anyway. So I'm just like, thank you so much. Well, we appreciate you, Pink Kiss. And as my man Killer Mike always says,
Starting point is 00:59:52 if everybody does a little, nobody has to do a lot. So we are happy that we could be a blessing to you. It was. It was. And I also thank the gentleman that asked it. I'm not sure who asked it, but I appreciate you answering to give me this opportunity because I just really wanted everybody to know
Starting point is 01:00:08 that from my heart, I'm thankful. His name is Dan. He donated nothing. You don't have to thank him. That's Dan. That's Dan's department. Thank you so much, mama. I definitely donated.
Starting point is 01:00:19 And you sound so much better and I'm glad that you're doing better and continue to keep your head up, all right? I appreciate it. Thank you, guys. Thank you, Pinky. I'm telling you you're doing better. And continue to keep your head up, all right? I appreciate it. Thank you, guys. Thank you, Pink Kiss. I'm telling you, listen, it don't cost you nothing to be nice to people. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:00:30 Pink Kiss called in. She was having a little financial problems. I donated a couple dollars. Give a shout-out on the air, tell a couple other people to donate some dollars. That's right. And, you know, you never know. I don't know how much she got. I don't know either, but everybody donated some money.
Starting point is 01:00:44 Even if everybody donated $20, it helped to in her problems and it helped her when she needed. So pink kiss, you know, I'm glad that everything worked out and, you know, continue to keep your head up. Now we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, we are going to talk about Ryan Henry and his best friend who is now speaking out and talking about what happened with Ryan Henry from Black Ink Chicago, allegedly sleeping with his child's mother. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:01:09 Good morning. Oh, no! Rumor report, rumor report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to him! With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Cardi B, some nudes leaked, and it's all her own fault, she admits. Here's what she had to say.
Starting point is 01:01:42 She's right. I mean, she says she used to be a stripper, so whatever. But how do you accidentally leak your nudes? Well, I'm going to tell you what happened. Well, okay. She's going to tell you what happened. Okay. How about that?
Starting point is 01:01:52 Right? And I'm telling Offset, yo, on camera, it looks slow. Let me show you. So I'm taking the picture. And then I press. And I'm seeing that it's loading. I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. The picture's loading. And he's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So I turn off my phone so it won't load. And I'm like, yo, check if the picture posted. He's like, yo, you posted a picture of the.
Starting point is 01:02:21 And I can't lie. And I was squinting the head the whole time. I was squinting the head. Her phone was muffled. So when she recorded the video, she probably had it on a pillow. So you couldn't lie. I was squinting the head the whole time. I was squinting the head. Her phone was muffled so when she recorded the video she probably had it on a pillow so you couldn't hear what she was saying. So what she did was, and I've done this before, when you went to send out a text or you went to send something out, you figure if I turn the phone
Starting point is 01:02:36 off, I did this before, I think I went to send a text out to somebody and I sent the text to the wrong person. Who got Rashawn's nudes? Who got Envy's nudes? It had nothing to do with nudes. Envy got little nipples everywhere. Right?
Starting point is 01:02:48 My big nipples everywhere. But anyway, so when you try to turn the phone off, so you think if you turn the phone off, it doesn't go through. And that's what she did. So she turned the phone off and then it did go through.
Starting point is 01:02:58 But now she's trying to turn the phone back on and delete it. And you know, sometimes it takes a minute to turn the phone back on so she couldn't delete it in time but she probably did. Let me find my glasses so I can put my glasses on to hear you better.
Starting point is 01:03:08 Because are you telling me that there's nudes out there? I didn't say it was nudes, you idiot. That's all you heard? Yes. You said the same thing happened to you. You said the same thing happened to you. That's what I said. I said sending a message out and you try to turn the phone off so the message doesn't go out, but not sending nudes. I said the text message out. Well, don't say the same thing
Starting point is 01:03:23 happened to you then. Same thing didn't happen to you all right well cardi responded to the backlash that she got about her nipples here's what she said my big salami nipple was just all over the internet like for 30 minutes i was mad but then again i'm like whatever because i don't know like when i started hosting i used to show my boobs all the time because I was a stripper. Like, a lot of people talking shit because I got some big-ass nipples, but that just came with motherhood, y'all. Like, I swear to God, like, my daughter really f***ing stretched out my nipples, but it's all right because at least she didn't stretch out my f***ing hoes.
Starting point is 01:04:00 I'm really squinting to hear her now. Okay, so long nipples is what I'm getting from this. No, she didn't say long nipples. She said salami nipples. She said her nipples got stretched out when she had the baby and she was breastfeeding. But she said her punani is good because she takes care that she bleaches it and lasers it. Let me guess, Embi, the same thing happened to you. Yes, it does.
Starting point is 01:04:21 I laser mine and I bleach it so my punani is good. All right. Well, the rumor is also that there could be a Cardi B and Nicki Minaj collaboration coming. Can you imagine that? No, I can't imagine.
Starting point is 01:04:37 But that's what everybody is trying to say. All right, Cardi posted since you're mad, I'm going to give you something to be mad about this next single and collab
Starting point is 01:04:44 going to have you sick since you're here. I kind of feel like that could happen. By the way, that would be phenomenal. I would love to see those two women, you know, put their differences aside. I just don't think it's going to happen. I think it would be great. I think it would be great. I just don't think it could.
Starting point is 01:05:00 I don't know if it would happen. Like, they really, I know. And they should put Megan Thee Stallion on it since they both had number one songs just now with Megan Thee Stallion. That'd be dope. I think it would be great if they did that. I'd love to hear it. All right. And by the way, speaking of new music, Drake is putting the finishing touches on his album, Certified Lover Boy.
Starting point is 01:05:19 They're saying that that could be coming out sometime really soon within the next month or so. So I'm sure y'all be hyped to hear some new Drake, right? Yep. Not really. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. Why not? Geesh. Alright. Okay. Who you giving the donkey to then? Uh, donkey
Starting point is 01:05:37 of the day is going to a Texas man named Andrew Beard as if black men didn't have enough targets on their back. We'll talk about it for after the hour. Alright, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Leaving a child in a hot vehicle can lead to their death in a matter of minutes. If you see a child left unattended and can't locate their parents, call 911. If the child is unresponsive do whatever it takes to get him or her out safely including breaking the window you may be the only thing between the child's life and death You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Donkey of the Day, huh? I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes. They want this man to throw them blows, man. They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves. Let's go. They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day. They chose you. It's a breakfast club, bitchy.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Who's Donkey of the Day today? Well, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, October 14th goes to a Texas man named Andrew Beard. Now listen, when you are a black man in America, you are automatically stereotyped as threatening and dangerous. Okay. It is what it is. Let's not act like that stereotype isn't ingrained in American culture. The black man is considered a threat the same way snakes are. Okay. It's been so many studies done where white participants reveal biased attention towards black faces relative to white faces. And guess what? People take advantage of that fear all the time, especially in the criminal justice system. Black men in front of that judge, black men in front of that jury get thrown under the jail for offenses white folks get literally no time for.
Starting point is 01:07:19 We know this. Okay, let's not act clueless here. Well, Andrew Beard took the fear that america has of black men to another level see andrew beard is currently in jail on a one million dollar bond charged with murder but he tried to get away with it would you like to know how let's go to kdfw fox four for the report please a man is in jail on a murder charge accused of killing the mother of his toddler when she was trying to go to work. Carrollton Police say Andrew Charles Beard shot Alyssa Burkett in the head and stabbed her multiple times. Burkett's family told investigators that Beard and their daughter were in a contentious child custody battle. Police records show detectives searched Beard's home and found tracking devices, the same type found on Burkett's vehicle.
Starting point is 01:08:03 Trash bags with work boots cut into pieces and doused with bleach. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE
Starting point is 01:08:12 HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE
Starting point is 01:08:20 HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. THE SUSPECT WAS FOUND IN THE HOME. the suspect as a black male. While detectives searching the vehicle also found a dark colored prosthetic beard with what appeared to be brown makeup stains on it. Inside his home, they found two bottles of dark brown liquid foundation makeup, along with partially burned makeup wipes with brown residue on them. It's possible the suspect tried to appear African-American.
Starting point is 01:08:43 Didn't we tell y'all white folks about wearing blackface? You out here committing felonies and fenty? Okay, Andrew thought he could wear blackface, put on a fake beard, some makeup, pretend to be black, and get away with murder? Think about that. Kill a woman and then bystanders say it was a black man because you decided to put on blackface. What do you think that does the law enforcement
Starting point is 01:09:03 who already have black men listed as public enemy number one? Black men are already getting profiled, already getting harassed. We are already pulled over at a higher rate than white folks. What do you think happens to black people when they think that a black murder suspect is on the loose in a city?
Starting point is 01:09:20 Lord have mercy. I don't know why they call white lies little. Okay, I've never seen a little white lie in my life. All white lies are huge and have mercy. I don't know why they call white lies little. Okay, I've never seen a little white lie in my life. All white lies are huge and have consequences. Black lives don't matter as much as white lies do. Okay, and those white lies get black lives killed. We've seen it over and over and over again. Emmett Till is dead because of a white lie.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Remember that woman in Michigan who falsely claimed that a group of black men kidnapped, beat, and raped her? White lie. We all remember Amanda Knox accusing a black man of murder, a murder she was initially convicted of? White lie. Whatever stereotypes you believe about black people, okay, cause you to believe that black people are the ones committing these crimes just because a white person says so. And what's so interesting to me about all of this is how come the white folks who lie actually commit these crimes and blame them on us? How are they never
Starting point is 01:10:12 stereotyped as dangerous? How are they not perceived as a threat? How does a society historically lie on us, oppress us, and kill us but convince people that we're the problem? We're the dangerous ones? Inquiring black minds would like to know. Please let Remy Ma give Andrew Bidd the biggest hee-haw.

Starting point is 01:10:56 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? This is Kiana. Hey, Kiana. What's your question for Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? This is Kiana. Hey, Kiana. What's your question for Yee? Well, I've been trying to reach you guys for months.
Starting point is 01:11:11 I'm calling from Minnesota. I've emailed you guys. I've messaged on Instagram. I'm so happy to be on the line with you guys right now. So my situation is this. I'm a black female. I'm 40. I live in Minnesota, like I said. I've been married for just
Starting point is 01:11:26 a year with a man that I've been on again, off again with for the last 12 years. During that time, I think that we are both really broken people. Both of us came from broken homes. Neither one of our parents really had the skills to take care of us. Both of my parents overdosed. One when I was 11, the other one just three years ago. And my husband's mom died alone, and they found her on his birthday probably like five years ago. So I felt like our relationship was more based on us trying to be each other's, you know, friends and, you know, kind of thing. We didn't know we were broken people, but we both loved each other and tried to make things work. Well, fast forward to three years, you know, my mom,
Starting point is 01:12:11 my mom died. My son found my mom. She had overdose. My son, the same one who found her, got killed by a drunk driver here in May. Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. so i've had a lot of traumatic things happen in my life but i've never let that stop me i've been a nurse for almost 17 years i work in cancer care um so i've always just tried to find the best in the worst situations and that's what i was trying to do in my marriage so my husband's been very unsupportive, very selfish. Within months of losing my son, I call him where he feels like it's our son because of our history. But I've been the mom taking care of my children, you know, when he decided to leave and come back, all of those things. So he's just been very selfish in this process. We haven't talked for over a month. He's moved himself into a spare room of ours.
Starting point is 01:13:06 His belongings have been packed in the garage for months. And I just feel like he's checked out on the marriage, even though he keeps saying, like, no, I'm in love with you and this and that. But everything is so one-sided. It's like his way or the highway. And I realize that I'm to blame for that because I've let it happen for so long. I am doing my own therapy. Thank you, Charlamagne, because you always encourage mental health. So I have been doing that.
Starting point is 01:13:30 I have my therapist. Amazing. We actually were doing therapy together, but he decided not to. So I keep going. And my therapist, shout out to Jason Clopton here in Minneapolis. He's amazing. And he's been really helping me discover myself because what I did realize is I was focused on everybody else and not myself for so long. Being a mother to my
Starting point is 01:13:51 kids, a nurse, you know, taking care of cancer patients, trying to be a new wife, trying to be a sister to my brother. We're the only two when my mom died, you know, dealing with trauma, everybody faced with that. And then the trauma of losing my son here in may from a drunk driver uh i i feel like i know the answer that i should leave my marriage but i just kind of wanted to talk to some professional people outside of who i know you know to just see what they thought well i'm definitely not a professional not none of us appear are professionals and it's good that you are getting professional help. I did have one question. Do you think it makes him feel a way when you refer to the kids as your children and your son and not ours?
Starting point is 01:14:37 I think so, but this is the thing about my husband. I don't fault him or blame him in that. What I was trying to do was be patient and have us grow together. So when I say my son and my kids, it's because I feel like he created that space where he separated my children and his children. Even small things. Like I would notice
Starting point is 01:14:59 when they were little. Like, go ahead. I'm sorry. But I just think that to move forward, you are creating a separation now where he might not even be able to support you if you're not acknowledging the fact that maybe he has regrets about that also now and he's not even able to express that I mean I completely understand what you're saying but I'm just you know as an outside person you're you're also creating a separation now when maybe it's a time for you guys to come together well I feel like
Starting point is 01:15:31 that's what I've been trying to do so by him we can't communicate like there's no like when I try to have a conversation with him it's very one-sided he always like literally last night because I told him I was calling for divorce and I was giving him copies of divorce papers to review. I've been trying to be very cordial, you know. And you know what his response was? Last night even. Not like, wife, how have you been? We haven't talked for a month.
Starting point is 01:15:56 You know, none of that. It was, I've been trying to teach you how to be the wife I need you to be for me. And I'm like, how can you be so focused on yourself? I'm literally in survival mode by the moment, trying to pick myself up, start businesses, you know, and he's not being helpful. You know, it's hard because he's not doing the work on himself, and you can't be the only person doing the work.
Starting point is 01:16:23 And I know that you care about him, and you want him to be a better person, whether or not you guys are together. And if he's not willing to do that work now, I can't even begin to understand or pretend to understand that I would know what it's like to have the loss that you've had in your life that both of you have had to experience. And I think it's commendable that you're even able to speak about it because I know it's difficult for you.
Starting point is 01:16:44 So, and I think it's great that you've been doing the work. But if he's not doing the work, I don't know how you can move forward if he's not going to make that commitment at least. Yeah, that's what I feel. Even if he goes even if he goes on his own without you to go to therapy, because it sounds like he needs that. Also, if he can't make that commitment, I don't know how you guys can move forward. I don't know how you guys can move forward. I don't either. But also, I wanted to ask you, Angelique, because I feel like I have the answers pertaining to my marriage. Like I said, I've been trying to reach you guys via inbox because I have started a foundation in my son's honor that got killed in May.
Starting point is 01:17:18 He was an aspiring artist. His name is Mahdi Twain Ahmad. He would have turned 23 in August. And when he saw my mom, he struggled with mental illness. You know, we discovered that he was having anxiety and depression and was kind of going down the wrong road. And before my son died, he was really working on creating a brand for himself and working on his music.
Starting point is 01:17:39 I literally found a goal sheet written up in his handwriting that he was working on, you know, everything that he wanted to do. And part of it was his music. So I encourage people to go to SoundCloud and look up Maddie Wayne. It's M-A-D-I Wayne, like Lil Wayne, his favorite artist. Okay. All right. We'll definitely check that out.
Starting point is 01:17:58 I Love Myself Foundation. It's called I Love Myself Foundation at Gmail because we're trying to start mental health services in the state of Minnesota. You know, I don't know if y'all have heard. So many kids are killing each other on the north side and south side of Minneapolis, plus the riots and everything. It's been really crazy in Minnesota. But I'm trying to take my pain and make it a purpose to help people that were like my son.
Starting point is 01:18:21 So I'm not trying to let my tragedy and I'm not trying to feel sorry for myself. I just really want to move forward. Well, you sound like an amazing person, and I feel like you have been able to handle what life has been giving to you. I see great, amazing things for you. I appreciate you so much for sharing with us this morning. I hope that you continue to do the work on yourself.
Starting point is 01:18:41 I'm hopeful that he will at least at some point come to the point where he's able to say, okay, I need to go and seek this professional help just for me to be a better person. Whether or not you guys decide to move forward, I think it's really great what you've been doing for yourself. And, you know, my heart goes out to you.
Starting point is 01:18:58 I appreciate it. If you have any suggestions, how else I can get funding or help with my foundation and getting grants and things like that I would appreciate it because I know let's hold on the line let's get your like me um hold what's your instagram so we can follow you I am sweecy it's s like sam w like white e e edward edward cat c like charlie y this just confused me i'm sorry that confused me wait sw we see sw e e c y eight zero is my instagram name but um business wise is i love myself foundation at gmail

Thank you, Queen. I just want you to know it's perfectly okay to pray and go to therapy.
Starting point is 01:20:10 Oh, I'm doing both. There you go. I wouldn't be able to make it. There's no way. There's no way I would be standing upright and going to go to work and take care of people that are fighting for their lives. So I know I can do it. Prayers up for you, Queen.
Starting point is 01:20:22 All right. Thank you, Mama. Thank you. ASCII, 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice, hit ye All right. Thank you, mama. Thank you. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice. Hit Yee now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Get some real advice with Angela Yee.
Starting point is 01:20:34 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? Hello. Hey, what's up, man're in the middle of Ask Ye. Hello, who's this? Hello. Hey, what's up, man?
Starting point is 01:20:46 What's your question for Ye? Yo, so first off, I want to say I love you guys. I listen to you every morning. I drive trucks and whatnot, so I listen to you guys every morning. But over this past week, my mom took my son to Vegas. I gave him over freaking 400 something bucks so my son plays the dune buggy game right you know see a dune buggy type of person dune buggy whatever my mom was rushing to the airport and he did it and he hit her too hard almost made him squirm off the road
Starting point is 01:21:21 she probably knows that stop so he texted his mom and said that he punched him, which is a problem. I know how my mom punched my son. So apparently his mother is in Vegas, and he shows up at the airport screaming and yelling, causing a scene as she normally does. So she's all in my mom's face, talking, yelling, spitting. So my mom mushed her out of her face.
Starting point is 01:21:46 She got all hyped up, ran back, and swung on my mom two times. Luckily, she missed. This whole thing, pretty much, called it a day. Made my mom miss her flight and all this. I want to know what... She's corrupting my son, basically. I wanted some advice on what I should do because... Your son's mother, you said, is corrupting your son.
Starting point is 01:22:13 Is that what you're saying? Yes. How is she corrupting your son? She's just not raising him right. When she laughed at a boy, like, she got him to the point where thinking When she laughed at a boy, like, she got him to the point with thinking that everything she buys him is like
Starting point is 01:22:29 everything, product, top of the line. She didn't go buy this boy a mask from the gas station and then tell him that she got it from Gucci, type stuff.
Starting point is 01:22:37 Like, she's just raising him non-realistically. Right. So, okay, what it sounds like to me here is that this is a parent problem and y'all need to learn how to talk to each other more
Starting point is 01:22:50 because I don't think this is anything that should involve your son. He needs just to see that both his parents love him and this is not anything he should ever have to witness, you know? I think that you two need to have a better relationship with each other because I'm sure just like you're saying she raises his wrong. She probably the same thing about you just because you guys aren't getting along with each other and communicating. Honestly, I swear to God, we've tried it. I'm just getting to the point where, well, no one in my family wants to deal with her. I'm not even going to go through the batching of expressing her background.
Starting point is 01:23:26 I'm not going to do that. But no one wants to deal with her because of her background. She is not very reliable. We've tried to co-parent and things, and every time I get raised, say, you know what, I'm going to just take you to court, and I'll go for full custody. She, oh, no, please don't take my baby, blah, blah, blah. I've tried to co-parent and things, and her attitude, I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:23:48 After we broke up, I've kind of just let her be. I'm not sure if she's on man's or what her issue is, but something's not right in the girl's head. Well, the one thing I will say this is that the child, your son, is the number one priority, and whatever you have to do to make sure that your son is safe, you need to do it. If that means you feel like you need to go to court to get full custody, she would do the same, then you should do that. And if you feel like y'all need to go to, together to co-parenting classes and figure out how y'all can communicate with each other or have
Starting point is 01:24:18 a mediator, y'all need to do that. Somebody that can communicate. If you guys can't right now communicate with each other, but remember that your son is always first and whatever you have to do, that's your priority. If you have to swallow your pride sometimes just to keep the peace in front of your son, then you have to do that. But I would say if you feel like it's that serious, then yes, you absolutely should go to court. Who cares if she's crying about it or whatever. If that's what you feel like is necessary for your son, then you have to do that. Okay. Yeah, because I guess that's just pretty much what we're going to have to go through
Starting point is 01:24:52 because she forgets, basically, that I have another child. And she just feels like my son is just the only priority that I should have. As I said, over this whole situation that they caused in this airport made my mom miss her flight. The money that I gave my mom for her freaking to have to buy another flight was the money that I was saving for my daughter's birthday, which is next month. So her causing this freaking thing is just, she just messes up everything. She just, she don't think about nobody else but herself and Tristan, which I'm thinking of Tristan, but I have other obligations too. And I can't keep dishing and taking crap because she wants to be ignorant.
Starting point is 01:25:35 Yeah. You know, listen, and until y'all get to a better space and she gets herself together and y'all can communicate, you are going to have to be the bigger person. Unfortunately. Or you're going to drive yourself crazy. Don't allow that to happen. Just remember, everything you got to do is for your kids. True.
Starting point is 01:25:54 Alright, well I wish you so much luck and I'm telling you, if you feel like you need to keep a track of these things because you might end up in court someday, I would highly recommend that you're the person that initiates that. Okay. Alright. Good luck, Lee. You sound so... I know you are. I get it.
Starting point is 01:26:10 You over it. I get it. Alright. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and since we are discussing family and kids and baby moms, let's talk about Ryan Henry from Black Ink Chicago.
Starting point is 01:26:26 His, I guess, former best friend is speaking out. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning! What's happening? Hey, let's get to the rumors.
Starting point is 01:26:38 Let's talk black. What is it, black in Chicago? Ryan Henry? Yep. Black in Chicago. That's a black ink, black ink. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. I just wanted to hear you.
Starting point is 01:26:53 Well, from Black Ink Crew Chicago, Ryan Henry's best friend, Anthony Lindsay, you know, he was on Instagram over the weekend, and he was saying that Ryan Henry was sleeping with his child's mother, his son's mother, and he found saying that ryan henry was sleeping with his uh child's mother and his son's mother and he found out via her text messages well he just recently revealed how he even saw those text messages here he is my son picks up her phone and he says i know mommy's cold he opens her phone and i went to the text and the only thing i did was put Ryan's name in because I had suspicions but I thought it was something wrong with me to be having suspicions. I'm like he's the godfather
Starting point is 01:27:29 of my son. I mean why do I have these suspicions? But the first thing I did was type in Ryan's name and a whole conversation came up. Damn. Right now more in this interview on the Lionel B show. Here is Ryan. Here he is talking more about the aftermath once he found those messages after his son, I guess, showed him the password, showing the messages on his mother's phone.
Starting point is 01:27:53 I beat cancer October the 23rd. And we had a small get-together at Ryan's house. Ryan is on my right side, and she's on my left side. And I'm giving a speech thanking them for supporting me. And if you look at the video, look at Ryan's face, I can tell he's disturbed. If it happened once, so y'all was drunk, you don't know what happened. Even twice, and y'all, after that second time, we knew we were wrong and we hated it happening. I would have been willing to, like, work through that.
Starting point is 01:28:19 But you guys had sex probably, like, over 20 times, a year and a half. Damn. Damn, man. That's crazy. Ryan hasn't said much about this yet. So right now these are his allegations. So Ryan hasn't really said too much. I guess we'll wait and see what he has to say in response.
Starting point is 01:28:38 But that hurts. Yeah, it does. That's my baby mom's. I had cancer. Oh my gosh. I hope that's not true. I hope. Why are you growling?
Starting point is 01:28:50 Because it's just crazy. Could you imagine your man, one of your best friends, knock off your baby mom's when you were in the hospital with cancer? That's not just like somebody you know. That's your people. He said that was his best friend. Why don't you just say that happened to you, too? He's his son's
Starting point is 01:29:06 godfather. Definitely happened to me. Unless Dramos knocked off. You know what? Let me stop it. That's your best friend? Charlemagne is. No, wait. Dramos is and Charlemagne. Never mind. Go ahead. You're confused. The LAPD is investigating
Starting point is 01:29:21 Dr. Dre's wife now for alleged embezzlement. City boys, we up, baby! City boys, we up, baby! City boys, we up! Oh, boy. That is because she withdrew nearly $400,000 from the business account without authorization. So they believe that she stole this money, embezzled the cash, and now they are looking into these allegations.
Starting point is 01:29:44 If she is brought up on charges, she could FaceTime. So she needed $2 million from Dre a month and she was stealing money? Wow. This is just wow. Well, by the way, it was both of their accounts, though. I was going to say that. I was like, if you're married, is it stealing? You know what I mean? If it's your account and you take money out, is it stealing?
Starting point is 01:30:00 She said she had a right to that money. Her name is on the account also. And she said that investigation is just a PR stunt and a smear campaign as she's trying to move forward with the divorce. Your wife takes out money right now, Charlamagne. Is it stealing? We're married. They're married.
Starting point is 01:30:15 No, we're getting a divorce. They're married. She's stealing. Yeah, she's getting a divorce and she's asking for $2 million a month. She is definitely stealing. She's definitely stealing. It's her account also. And I am happy Dr. Dre is getting away from that criminal. 911, what's your emergency? My wife is stealing. She is definitely stealing. She's definitely stealing. It's her account also. And I am happy Dr. Dre is getting away from that criminal.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Now what's the emergency? My wife is stealing. My wife is stealing. My soon-to-be ex-wife is stealing from me. Okay? All right. Well, her daughter's about to come for you guys, okay? Talking all this ish.
Starting point is 01:30:36 You saw how she did 50. All right. Fabio Foran, we told you that he was arrested. And they're saying he's been charged with assaulting his pregnant girlfriend. So they said he is still being held in jail on charges. He assaulted his 24-year-old pregnant girlfriend over the weekend. Reportedly, he was arrested at his residence in Edgewater after the incident. According to reports, his girlfriend is pregnant with their second child.
Starting point is 01:31:00 Now, she has responded. Her name is Jasmine Foran on Instagram. She said, thank you all so much for your kind words, but I would like to clarify a few things. I did not call the police on Fabio. I did not press charges, and I do not want the father of my children in jail. A situation happened in our home,
Starting point is 01:31:15 and a nosy neighbor called the police. The police are who pressed charges, and in time, Fabio will be released of all charges. Thank you for respecting our privacy during this time. Yeah, how can the police press charges on you because of something somebody said? Don't the police got to witness it or something? Nah, if it's...
Starting point is 01:31:30 Doesn't the victim have to say that? Not in domestic violence. If it's domestic violence, they can arrest the parties if they see something that looks funny because just in case, a lot of times, women don't press charges, so the police can do it instead. Definitely happened to me before.
Starting point is 01:31:42 It happened to you, right, Envy? But it did happen to me before. I actually had a situation where my landlord, when I was younger, called the police because my boyfriend at the time was wilding out. And I did not want to press charges and they did end up arresting him. Did he hit you, though?
Starting point is 01:31:58 Yeah. So you should have pressed charges. So they did the right thing. But I would never have done that. I even said I don't want to see him go to jail. I just want him to leave. The problem was that after they told him to leave he came back and they saw him outside. I wasn't opening the door and he came back and they arrested him
Starting point is 01:32:14 and they said after that it's out of your hands. He hit you. He should go to jail. I'm just telling you what happened. Alright, Tamar Braxton is saying that her relationship with her ex wasn't terrible and that he was an amazing partner. Listen to this. I really honestly appreciate my family, you know, all of a sudden speaking up for me.
Starting point is 01:32:32 But I do feel compelled to say that it wasn't a terrible relationship. David was an amazing partner to me. He was an amazing stepdad to Logan. He wasn't a clout chaser. He wasn't trying to be on TV. And I don't feel like majority of the things that are being said is warranted because what I went through this summer was very traumatic. And he was there for me every step of the way, even when most people were not. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:02 And Eddie Murphy's Coming to America Has been brought by Amazon That deal is worth $125 million Drop one of those bombs for Eddie Murphy God damn it By the way, that's the future I would much rather be at home Watching Coming to America 2 On the streaming service
