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

That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series,
The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into
their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.
Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

You are out of control. I can't even deal with you. I call in the hot seat. Y'all are wild. Y'all are wild.
Can I live?
You are out of control.
I can't even deal with you.
Y'all are so petty.
Why are y'all so petty?
The world's most dangerous morning show.
DJ Envy.
Captain of this bitch.
Angela Yee.
I stay in everybody's business, but in a good way.
Charlamagne Tha God.
The ruler rubbing you the wrong way.
The Breakfast Club.
Made for everybody.
95% of your murders. 95% of the murders and murderers and murder victims is one and all.
95% of the...
What happened?
You all right, Jamos?
I don't know.
What the hell is going on here?
It's Valentine's Day.
He's molested.
Let's start this again.
Start the Vonda over.
Let's do this right.
Okay.
You were the only one hearing that.
You realized that.
Oh, really?
Yes.
Oh, well, you had the headphones messed up then.
Good morning, USA!
Hey, fam! Happy Valentine's Day!
Good morning, Yeezy! Yes, it's Valentine's Day!
February 14th. Happy Valentine's Day to everybody out there.
Hopefully you are getting ready for Valentine's Day. Hopefully you are spending the day with your boo or you're planning your night with your
boo. You're about to have a lot of sex.
You're about to do
things that you don't usually do. Or maybe
today's just a regular day.
It's the 14th. It's not the regular day.
It is. For some people, it is.
I woke my wife up this morning with some nice
tongue down her throat and said, baby, I love you.
You didn't brush your teeth? No, I kissed
her first. I put my tongue right down. Baby, I love you. You didn't brush your teeth? No, I kissed her first. I put my tongue right down.
Baby, I love you. Happy
Valentine's Day. You are everything.
Well, I left my phone at home today by accident.
Oh, well, you're not going to get any Valentine's Day
love until you get back. So any surprise and
nothing? Nope, nope. And I gotta
go to the dentist today, so. That's not a
great Valentine's. That's it.
Yeah, my uncle and my dad. I get to see my uncle and my dad
today. Get to see your uncle and your dad for Valentine's Day.
You know, a lot of people ask me, you know, since I have kids, what do I do for Valentine's Day for my kids?
Well, I mean, they're not now, but I have an 18-year-old who's in high school.
She's a senior, so I send her flowers to her school for her.
I have a 6-year-old who's in first grade, and I also send her flowers as well.
I just send them just to know that.
What about the boys?
What about them?
They don't get anything?
No.
Wow. What?
I feel like you should give them things too.
You can't just give. It's for
everybody. Yeah?
Yeah. Then that's such a tradition of them
thinking that they don't deserve to get presents
on these holidays. I never got presents on
Valentine's Day. My mom and daddy never gave me
anything on Valentine's Day. You know, I used to love Valentine's Day because I always got gifts from my parents on Valentine's Day. Did they give you presents on Valentine's Day. My mom and daddy never gave me I used to love Valentine's Day
because I always got
gifts from my parents
on Valentine's Day.
Did they give your brother
Valentine's Day gifts?
I don't know.
No, they didn't give
your brother no damn
Valentine's Day.
You don't think that
Logan would like chocolate?
No.
You don't think that
Jackson would like
a stuffed animal?
No.
No, I don't think so.
I find that interesting.
I didn't think about it.
Charlamagne just walked in.
What up, Charlamagne?
The on-air light is broke, guys.
Yeah, it is.
I was just saying that, you know, for Valentine's Day, I buy my daughter flowers.
I buy my daughter teddy bears.
And she was like, what about your son?
I'm like, what about him?
He good.
Valentine's Day is not for guys.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Valentine's Day has never been for guys.
He's good.
Hey, you never know in this area.
I get my boyfriend Valentine's Day presents all the time.
Yeah.
What do you get him?
Y'all are older.
I just thought I might get like a nice little gift from,
nothing huge,
but maybe an accessory
from Louis Vuitton
or something like that.
But y'all are in a relationship,
but I wouldn't,
you know what,
I just wouldn't get
my son a Valentine's Day gift.
But your daughter's
not in a relationship either.
I know,
but that's my baby girl though.
That's your heart.
That's not your baby boy.
Valentine's Day is about hearts.
Yeah, she's always
going to be my love.
So the people that are
your hearts.
But my son is my heart too.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I'm just asking, you know, I don't know. I'm just asking.
You know, I don't have kids,
but I know I got presents
every single year.
I feel like maybe
they feel left out.
I don't know how
my son would take it
if I sent flowers
to his school.
It doesn't have to be flowers.
You know what I mean?
This is bad.
You're a 16-year-old teenager.
You walk into school
and see some flowers.
Happy Valentine's Day for dad.
Guys don't like getting flowers?
I'm not that progressive. No, I don't. I don't like. dad. Guys don't like getting flowers? I'm not that progressive.
I don't, I don't like,
I mean, I don't,
I don't want flowers.
I'm not that progressive
that I would buy my,
send my son flowers
to school.
Sorry.
It's not me.
It could be just a gift though.
I just don't think
Valentine's Day is for guys.
This is all about,
all about the ladies,
personally.
And I think that's cool.
It's a holiday about romance
and love
and it's a day that we show that,
I mean, not even a day
because we always show that, but if it's a day of celebration for the one you love,
that's all.
I always interpreted Valentine's Day as if you're in a relationship, or if you like somebody,
because, you know, we always used to get those secret Valentine's Day cards from people who
are like your secret admirers, but I always looked at it as a day for people who love
each other, so you get whoever you're with a present, whether you're with a guy, or two
guys, or two guys
or two, whatever it is.
Well, that's different, right?
Whoever the person is that you love.
I get my boyfriend a present.
If you're in a same-sex relationship,
like if you're two guys,
of course they would buy something.
So why wouldn't I buy my boyfriend something?
I thought you were talking about the kids.
He said, but you guys are saying it's only for girls.
No, I was just talking about for kids.
I mean, the gay guys are the kids too,
but I thought we were talking about our actual sons.
That's what I was talking about.
Well, it just started because you guys were saying that it's only when you buy women presents.
But I felt like it's for each other.
The moral of the story is it's for people in relationships.
So I'm sorry to all you single women out there.
All you single folk who can't relate to what we're talking about this morning.
Yeah.
Okay?
Because today, if it's not Valentine's Day for you, it's actually Single Awareness Day.
What does that mean? It can be an acronym Day for you. It's actually Single Awareness Day. What does that mean?
It can be an acronym for SAD, okay?
Well, no, SAD is the acronym for Single Awareness Day.
It's okay.
We're here for you this morning, though.
You know, radio, even though it's old school,
we are the companion to you people every morning.
And so for all you single folks out there,
for all you single folks out there. for all you single folks out there...
Now you calling them pets?
That's it?
Animals now?
We're companions?
No, I call them companions.
It ain't nothing about pets.
That's why for all you single folks out there,
we are here for you this morning.
We are your Valentines.
Okay?
The Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God,
Angel E, DJ Envy.
We are your Valentine this morning.
We love you if nobody else loves you.
And you know what?
We with you.
This is what we're going to do this morning
because we're going to do this on our social media.
Jimmy Jazz actually gave us some gift cards
after we did that whole story on the
Jimmy Jazz mannequin.
So we're going to give a lonely girl something?
So each one of us has a gift card to give away
to somebody for Valentine's Day.
So if you're not getting a present...
If you're lonely...
Don't put me in your illegal promotional scheme.
Don't say no weed.
I thought it was a nice thing.
Did you run this by corporate?
I'm not French.
I'm just hoping this is no weed.
I'm going to do this on my social media,
but I just thought it was nice
because we mentioned it
and then we said we should give away
a Jimmy Jazz gift card
because we like the way their clothes look.
That's right.
And so I got some.
That's exactly what I want to give
a single person this morning,
a gift card to Jimmy Jazz.
Some clothes.
Let's do it, baby.
All right.
Antonio Brown will be joining us this morning.
Oh, my God. Antonio Brown, he's a cancer like me. All right. Antonio Brown will be joining us this morning. Oh, my God.
Antonio Brown, he's a cancer like me.
Yes.
That good water sign energy, that good unpredictable energy will be in here this morning.
Who else?
Another cancer will be in here this morning.
More good water sign energy, unpredictable energy.
He'll be here this morning.
It's going to be a very messy morning.
All right.
And us.
You're Valentine for your single ass.
Goodness gracious.
Now, you've got front page news.
Yes, we are going to be talking about some positive things.
Somebody is getting an elementary school named after her.
We'll tell you who it is.
All right.
Now, we got an iHeartRadio premiere.
This is the Migos.
No such thing.
Featuring Travis Scott and Young Thug.
No such thing.
There's no such thing as radio premieres anymore.
I mean, the record's out, but we got to see that.
Exactly.
They sent me the record.
Can we stop with this dated verbiage? iHeart, there's no such thing as radio premieres anymore. I mean, the record's out, but we got to say that. Exactly. They sent me the record last night. Come on, can we stop with this dated verbiage?
All right, hard.
There's no such thing as premieres anymore.
All right, we're here with some new music.
It's Migos, Travis Scott, you hooked up.
Okay.
It's called Give No F.
It's the breakfast local morning.
That's right.
That was new music.
Now I don't know how much time we have for front page news.
That's not new music, but it's new to radio.
It's new music.
It's new to radio.
It came out today, I think.
What are we talking about, Yeek?
Well, let's talk about William Barr, the Attorney General.
Now, he's saying that he cannot properly do his job with Donald Trump tweeting.
And this is all after Donald Trump tweeted about Roger Stone.
He was responding to a tweet that said,
Prosecutors recommend up to nine years in prison for Roger Stone.
Donald Trump then tweeted out,
This is a horrible and very unfair situation.
The real crimes were on the other side as nothing happens to them. Cannot allow this
miscarriage of justice. Here is what William Barr had to say. Public statements and tweets
made about the department, about cases pending in the department and about judges before whom we have cases make it impossible for me to do my job and to assure
the courts and the prosecutors in the department that we're doing our work with integrity.
All right. So that may be true. So I don't know how Donald Trump is going to respond now. As you
know, he doesn't like people that work with him that criticize. Yeah, that's why I think either there's trouble in paradise or that was a well-prepped statement.
Because I think William Barr had to testify in front of the House soon, if I'm not mistaken.
So they probably sat down and prepped that just to throw everybody off.
All right.
Now, Michelle Obama will have an elementary school named after her in Northern California.
West Contra Costa Unified School District has voted to rename the school
after former First Lady Michelle Obama.
So that'll be
pretty nice to have a school named after you.
Alright, well I'm Angela Yee
and that is your Front Page News.
Let's keep in mind today is National. I'm single
and sad about it, but tomorrow I'm a front like
being an independent single lady is fun day.
That's what today is. Today is tomorrow.
There's a lot of single men out there, too, by the way.
And I want to salute Taylor,
because yesterday I was giving Taylor hell,
because, you know, she didn't have her hair done,
or her nails did,
and that's how you can tell somebody
don't have a Valentine's.
But today she came in here
with the fresh poetic justice braids,
looking super fresh.
She said, I'm good.
Man, my bae good.
Yeah, all right.
She got her braids.
Drop her the glue,
drop her the tailor.
She got a Valentine.
Get it off your chest. 800 right. She got her rage. Struggling to close my fatale. She got a valentine.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.

Feeling tired?
Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? Be part of a great colonial tradition.
What could go wrong?

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know
what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her
dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves,
for self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.
This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Like grace.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Trav, what up, Trav?
Yo, what's up, Amber?
Good morning, man.
Happy Valentine's Day, baby.
Happy Valentine's Day, ye.
What's up, Char?
What up, sis?
How you?
Don't expect a happy Valentine's from me.
Happy Valentine's Day, Char.
Okay, thank you.
You know, I know why Char be so angry on Valentine's Day.
Why he always be so mad.
Who's angry?
Always gotta sit down and be mean to everybody.
And it's because he gotta spend time with his wife and his side man be at home.
His side man.
Whenever he's on Valentine's Day.
First of all, don't ever disrespect my wife like that.
I don't cheat on my wife.
Black men don't cheat, okay?
You have a side man.
There's nothing sad about me on Valentine's Day.
I actually love Valentine's Day
because I am in a healthy, loving relationship.
What about your side man?
I don't have one.
I guess I understand what you're saying, though, Trav.
If you are happy,
wouldn't you want other people to be happy?
I do want other people to be happy.
Instead of being mean.
Trav, do you have a Valentine's?
I do have a Valentine's Day.
Dollar Clues bonds for blind beauty. That's my Valentine's Day. Y'all are clues bonds with blind beauty.
That's not Valentine's Day.
See what I'm saying?
That's why you upset with me.
You upset with me because I'm in a healthy, loving relationship,
and you're one of them lonely mother effers I be talking about on Valentine's.
So sit your sad ass down because today is Single Awareness Day,
and SAD is an acronym for that.
Good morning, Trav.
And as I always do, shout out to all the ladies that are happily single after getting
out of a really bad relationship.
Sometimes you'd rather be
happily
single than miserable
in your relationship. Some people are lonelier
when they're with somebody they don't need to be with.
Some people are just single because it's just not their
time right now. That's all. I'm sorry, Trav.
Next year will be your year.
Okay? Well,
I do want to drop on a cruise bar for Charlamagne's wife
because that is my bae.
Good morning, bae. Good morning to you.
I love you. Happy Valentine's
Day to you, boo. Okay.
I'm actually dropping a song today
and I want to dedicate it to Charlamagne's wife.
What's it called? It's called Ride.
You sound confusing your sexuality.
Ride. Okay.
Don't go chasing vagina. You stick to the butt that you used
to, okay?
Maybe we need to see them in that box over there.
That box over there. Mr. Cheeks, we need to send them some...
He's single. Trav's so single that he'll take whatever.
A mouth is a mouth.
Goodness gracious. Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up, man?
I'm with Lane Anonymous this morning.
Yo, you must be single, bro. Yeah, bro, I got what?
Hey, no, bro, listen, listen, listen.
Me and my girlfriend broke up the day after Valentine's Day in 2016.
Ever since then, I ain't had no business.
Damn, you ain't had a Valentine's since 2016?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, man.
What about her?
Man, I don't know. Damn, well, I'm sorry for you, bro. Okay. 16? Oh, my goodness. What about her?
Damn.
Well, I'm sorry for you, bro.
Okay.
There's a guy that calls the pill all the time named Trav.
Yeah, Trav is lonely, too.
Maybe we can connect you with Trav.
Trav has a valentine, he said. I like women.
You know, anything.
I want to be.
Can you do my valentine?
I'm good.
Thank you.
It's been three years.
Vegas can't be choosers.
Okay?
All right.
Maybe we'll give you a Jimmy Jazz gift card.
Get it off your chest.

Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Juice from Pittsburgh.
Hey, Juice, man, you sound single today, bro.
I am.
I'm real single, man.
So I had a girlfriend.
We were official on Facebook.
And this happened during the Super Bowl.
She was worried about her ex popping up.
And I was like, you must be still talking to him. So come
Monday, I said, let's break it off.
She's like, no, I want to be with you. Tuesday, I don't hear
from her. Wednesday, I don't hear from her. So I
pull up at her crib and her ex
is over there. And I'm talking about he's big.
He's big like he just got off the pen.
So you took your ass back in that car. Yes, he did.
I was like, dude, I don't want to fight you.
I just want to show you the messages.
He didn't know about me.
I didn't know.
But I knew she was kind of talking to him.
I was like, look, I got pictures.
The little girl's calling me daddy.
And he's like, oh, for real?
Why you stench, though?
You should have just took that on the chin and kept it moving, bro.
I just want to catch her.
I want to catch her red-handed.
So you know what I'm saying?
We don't talk no more.
But I told her to kick rocks.
And she came up and apologized and said she's sorry for wasting my time,
but I ain't got time for that.
Damn it, man. Well, listen, man.
Enjoy today.
Today is sad.
Single awareness day.
It's your day, King.
Enjoy.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, Envy, what's up, bro?
It's Mello.
Mello, what's up, bro?
Nothing much, man.
I just want to say.
Now, wait a minute, Mello.
Before you even start talking, you and your Valentine be together
every morning, iPhone Sim, and y'all not
together this morning? Nah, we not together
this morning. I'm like, chill.
I'm over here trying to be positive,
and you hear you come over here talking about
iPhone Sim and some irrelevant stuff.
Why is that not being positive? Y'all do be
together every morning. I'm you and your bae?
That's not positive? It's Valentine's, and y'all not
together today. Yo, first of all, I'm a single black man, and iPhone Sim has a girlfriend. you and your bae. That's not positive? It's Valentine's Day. I'm not together today. Yo, first of all,
I'm a single black man
and I want to have a girlfriend.
Black men don't cheat.
That's right.
That's right, King.
So like I was saying,
happy Valentine's Day
to all the beautiful
black women out there
and if nobody says
you're beautiful.
That's all I wanted to say.
All right, there you go.
Thanks, Mello.
Happy Valentine's Day, Mello.
Happy Valentine's Day, Angela.
You look great.
You look great.
So what you doing tonight, Mello? You by yourself at the crib at home with some lotion? Yeah, do you have a team, Mello? Happy Valentine's Day, Mello. Happy Valentine's Day, Angela. You look great. You look great. So what you doing tonight, Mello?
You by yourself at the crib at home with some lotion?
Yeah, what's up?
Do you have a team, Mello, or are you playing isolation battle this morning?
Nah, I'm playing isolation today, man.
I'm riding solo today.
Well, happy sad day to you.
Saddest single awareness day.
He doesn't sound sad to me.
Yeah, all right.
He gonna cry in the car.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, it's Tisha from Texas.
Hey, Tisha.
Hey, okay.
I have to agree with Angela Yee.
Valentine's is just not for girls.
Guys do it.
My son is about to be 21.
Every year he was growing up, I always got him something for Valentine's Day.
I even sent stuff to his college.
It could be like a pair of pants or socks or underwear or something with a little heart and candy.
I love you.
Yeah, there you go.
So you say a heart and some candy?
Yeah.
Guys like chocolate too?
They do.
And it's not like the little cheesy stuff.
It's stuff that he likes.
Right.
That's a nice thoughtful present.
Do you have a Valentine, Mama?
I do.
Who's your Valentine?
Shout him out this morning.
Oh, no, I'm not doing that.
Why you ain't claiming
it, babe, on Valentine's Day?
Because I'm just
not, you know. I don't
want to.
Do you get your man
something for Valentine's Day?
She ain't got one. She don't got no man.
You got an imaginary friend.
Shout out to your imaginary friend.
You guys are so mean.
No, no, that's my P.S.
You's a hater.
Every year, you always hate on the single folks.
Why are you upset if you're not single?
I'm not single, but it's just bad.
Why?
I'm not married, and I'm not like, this is not my per se boyfriend,
but I go out, and he does things for me, and I do things for him.
But you are such a hater.
Oh, so it's not your boyfriend per se, so he already hit you with the,
oh, I got you tomorrow, meaning Saturday.
No.
No, he has me today.
Are y'all going out today, or are you going out tomorrow?
We're going out today. Well, congratulations. Well, you has me today. Are y'all going out today or are you going out tomorrow? We're going out today.
Well, congratulations, boy.
Well, you guys have a wonderful evening,
and I think it's great that you send your son something for Valentine's Day
and that you get your man something as well.
Shout out to the University of Central Arkansas.
He's a football player.
Yes, I send him stuff.
Charlotte, quit hating.
You don't look good.
I'm not hating.
Have a good morning, mama.
That therapy's not working.
Why can't I shout out to single people on Valentine's Day?
It's not my fault y'all leave them out every year.
All y'all think about is yourselves and y'all relationships.
I show love to the single people.
Today is SAD, Single Awareness Day.
Everybody's not SAD.
Who said they are?
It's an acronym, Yee.
Single Awareness Day.
S-A-D.
It's an acronym.
Nobody said anything about feelings.
Play the theme, music dramas. I don't acronym. Nobody said anything about feelings. Play the theme music, Dramos.
I don't know.
This sounds like you're being not nice.
Indie playing the theme music.
Yes.
Speaking of Valentine's Day, we'll tell you what couple just put out a Valentine's Day song just in time for today.

And you know, he had gotten a tattoo dedicated to Kalani earlier in the month.
Oh, YG and Love Love.

The two of them have gone through some ups and downs
because she had tweeted out before,
I'm single and focused in December,

Hopeless Romantic.

I'm so disappointed all the issues are going.
I'm sick of starting over every month.
I'm always falling in and out of love.
Cause I don't want to be with a man if he ain't gonna have my interest.
I don't want your love anymore cause you don't take this serious. I don't want to talk things out. Listen, it disgusts me how much the industry sleeps on Tink.
That woman is the young goat.

Clearly, that's DaBaby.
That song is called Stain.
Other guest appearances on A Boogie's album feature Young Thug, Roddy Ricch, Gunna, London
on the Track, Summer Walker, Trap, Manny, Khalid, Lil Uzi Vert.
Now, why we took that hard left?
I thought we were playing Valentine's Day theme song.
I thought it was YG and Kalani.
Fly into the Jersey because New York don't like the strap.
I thought it was Tink.
I thought it was Charlie Wilson.
You can like your Thug love, too.
A Boogie is dope, but not today.
If he picks you up playing that today, your vagina has no value to him.
Nah, people like this, too.
Also, Justin Bieber, his album Changes
is out today, 17 tracks.
This is his fifth studio album.
Some days I move like water.
Oh, God.
Some days I burn like fire.
Some days I wanna push further.
Some days I wanna do nothing.
I just wanna be the
best of me.
Even though sometimes
we might disagree.
So that I can be the best for
you. That's all
I wanna do.
I'm going through changes.
I like that.
I wanna be the best of me. That's for all the
freshly single people on Valentine's Day.
You've been messing up all year, you dumbass.

You want to make changes.
You're ready to be the man that she needs.
Well, that's him talking, and he's clearly in a happy relationship.
He's married.
That's romantic.
He didn't write that.
So, of course, when you don't write,
that's the type of stuff you make,
even though you're in a great relationship.
He actually did write that. Yeah, this is very personal. No, no, no. I really don't. I don't write that, so of course, when you don't write, that's the type of stuff you make even though you're in a great relationship. He actually did write that.
Yeah, this is very personal.
I don't know.
I really don't know.
I don't know.

Listen, somebody got to be a rebel when you're single and angry.
I don't give a F about no Valentine's day. It's the breakfast club.
Good morning.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired?
Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm. 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.
The Waikana tried my country.
My forefathers did that themselves.
What could go wrong?
No country willingly gives up their territory.
I was making a rocket with a black powder,
you know, with explosive warhead.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
We need help!
We still have the off-road portion to go.

Hey, guys. I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show,
where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs,

You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout?
Well, that's when the real magic happens.
So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire,

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.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into
her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities
for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I
discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Like grace.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.
Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Where are we starting, Yeezy?
Well, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has apologized again.
Oh, God.
For the stop and frisk remarks that he made.
Now, this all came up again because back in 2015, he did an appearance at the Aspen
Institute where he said 95% of your
murders and murderers
and murder victims fit 1MO.
You can just take the description, Xerox it, and
pass it out to all the cops. They are male minorities
16 to 21. That's true
in New York. It's true in virtually every city in
America. That's what he said in that
audio. In that audio, he
originally also had said minorities were
arrested at a disproportional rate because we put all the cops in the minority neighborhoods
because that's where all the crime is here's what he is saying now it's hard to talk about because
it's the one thing out of my uh 12 years in city hall that I sort of regret. But I think if you take a look, what we learned was that we weren't on top of things
and we didn't understand just how impactful it is
was on young men of color who got stopped.
We did bring the murder rate down,
but it got out of hand and I didn't stop it fast enough
and I apologize for it.
Doesn't sound very apologetic to me.
Listen, the best apology is a black agenda.
Present something to counter those racist policies you implemented.
Simple.
And it's amazing to me how many black people have already given Bloomberg the keys to the car.
The man oversaw one of the most racist policies in New York City history with stop and frisk.
The man is pro-redlining, which is another systemic racist policy for poor black and brown people, and you
Negroes just fell in line with him for some money?
Y'all should be ashamed of yourselves. What is Bloomberg
doing to counter some of those racist policies he implemented,
man? Come on. Well, he has this whole
Blacks for Bloomberg campaign that he was
launching also. What is it? What has he done
to gain your trust? Show us something.
I don't know what it's going to end up being, because
I haven't seen the specific policies yet,
but I do know that he is now trying to.
I think people are so scared right now.
They just don't want Trump to win.
It's almost like they're just, they'll just go with anybody that think that.
That's not a good enough.
Let me tell you something.
Voting out of fear, voting just because you want, just want Trump out of office.
That's not a good enough reason to vote.
But not voting at all is a terrible thing to do.
It is.
That's true too.
But the best apology for people like Bloomberg, Biden, you know,
Buttigieg
is a black agenda.
It's changed behavior
in a black agenda.
It seems like they've all
done something
against black people.
So it's like,
which way do you go?
Once again,
the person that has
the least amount of things
against black people.
Well, it's about
what are you doing today now?
Yes.
How have you changed?
That's really what it's about.
How are you going to
right those wrongs
and what are you doing now?
What the hell is this?
Because I just told y'all that.
That's what I'm telling you. The best
apology is a black agenda.
Voting for people who don't F with you is not
empowerment. It's just keeping the same people that keep their
foot on your neck in power.
Make these people resent something for you, just hand them your ass.
Alright, now let's talk about Colin Kaepernick.
He is writing a memoir on the
National Anthem protest.
And that is going to break down his whole
decision to nail. It's his first
project in his new endeavor, Kaepernick
Publishing, and he's going to detail
all of that. He said, my protest
was the culmination of years of thought and
experiences of learning and unlearning.
I want to tell the story of my evolution
and the events that led me to protest
systemic oppression in hopes that it will
inspire others to rise in action.
Well, that's good because he's not doing any interviews or anything like that,
so maybe he's telling his side from his way.
He should do interviews after that, though, if you're going to put this book out.
Yeah, I mean, he should have been talking a long time ago.
That's what leaders do. Leaders lead. You know what I'm saying?
You can't lead in silence.
All right, and Vanessa Bryant has renamed Kobe's charity to honor their daughter,
Gianna, as well, Mamba and Mamb Sita, the Mamba and Mamba Sita Sports
Foundation, and that's to honor both
of them. As you know, there's no 24
without two, so that's why they
have updated the Mamba Sports Foundation
now. That's beautiful.
And there are some memorial
service plans that have been unveiled,
so sources who are familiar with the planning
say that they're working very closely with Kobe's
family to finalize who will speak at the service, what singers and entertainers will be taking part.
Tickets will be available to the general public, but there will be a number of invited guests who get tickets first.
That includes family, friends, players, NBA officials and season ticket holders.
So the seats that remain will be sold to the public at a price that reflects the memories of Kobe and Jeezy.
They're talking about the upper seats
being sold for $24.02.
Whatever that price ends up being,
they said it will reflect
whatever they're doing to honor Kobe
and Gigi as well.
Alright, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Front Page
News. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, when we come back... We got a
water sign in the building. Wide receiver.
A fellow cancer.
Antonio Brown will be joining us.
Yes.
He's been doing his press run.
He's a cancer.
He's a water sign.
That means he's sensitive, emotional, very unpredictable.
Okay?
So we don't know what may happen in here today.
All right.
I could be overselling this thing, though.
All right.
We'll talk to him when we come back.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Yes, indeed.
Antonio Brown.
Yo.
Welcome, son.
Thanks, man.
Hey, B.
Got that clean-ass coat on.
Thank you, baby.
You born July 10th, right?
Yeah.
Are you into astrology at all?
Horoscopes? A little bit. So you know you're a Cancer? Yes, sir? Yeah. Are you into astrology at all? Horoscopes?
A little bit.
So you know you're a Cancer?
Yes, sir.
Okay.
After finding that out, I feel like I might understand you just a tad bit more.
Emotional?
A little bit.
Sensitive?
Sometimes.
Hard on the outside, a little tender on the inside, right?
A little bit.
If you don't know who A.B. is, of course, he's from Miami.
Football player.
Played with several teams.
The Steelers, the Raiders, the Patriots.
And he's not in the league currently right now.
You've been in the news lately for all around reasons.
You know that.
Yeah.
You know, Raiders Wire yesterday, they said that your apology tour wouldn't last long.
They said they've seen this before.
How would you respond to that?
Well, man, as a man, you just got man, you just gotta do what's best for yourself.
Anytime you're trying to make something right,
it's always gonna be people distracting
and saying what their funds are towards it.
You just gotta stay focused on the purpose
of the message and what I'm
trying to give off. Is it true that the
Raiders are considering bringing you back at all?
Hopefully.
I just wanna be on a team, protect my well-being,
be around guys that want to work hard and want to win.
Does the NFL really give a **** about people's well-being?
Yeah, I was going to say that.
I don't know.
They say they do.
They say they do, but, you know, you got to protect yourself at all times.
Do you feel like the league is going to do what they did to Kyla Kaepernick
to try to do to you where they box you out and no team would try to pick you up because of maybe your history or some of the
things that you've done off the field maybe you know that's what it seemed like thus far you know
not being able to have a deadline or have some type of information that give me any clarity would
i be able to continue my career so they haven't told you nothing like that you don't know what
they're saying on you coming back yeah it's a's a lot of unknown. What things have you been doing to work on yourself?
We saw the public apology you did to your ex.
And so what are some things that you've realized
after having gone through everything that you've gone through?
Are there regrets?
Are there steps that you're taking to say,
okay, this will never happen again?
So for me, it was just cleaning out the circle that I've been around,
being able to communicate with people
that really don't want nothing from me
and support my well-being.
You know, it's hard every day
when talking to people from different agendas
and everyone coming after you to get something.
So just being with people that support my mental health
and being around the right circle of people.
Let's talk about that,
because a lot of people say that they feel like
you are suffering from some type of mental health issues.
Have you looked into that?
Any therapy, anything like that?
No, I just think, you know, when you hold a lot of stuff in, you build up anger.
For me, you know, it's about just being able to talk to someone that always don't regurgitate back on what they need or they want something from me.
Well, that's why a therapist is good.
You ain't never sat down with a therapist.
I go to therapy once a week, my brother.
Yeah, yeah, that's why a therapist is good. You ain't never sat down with a therapist. I go to therapy once a week, my brother. Yeah, yeah, that's what I be doing. I be like calling and talking to the therapy because
as you say, the therapy, they just hear you out. They can listen to you
with positive feedback and with no intention. So you're aware
that you're doing some wild s***, basically. I feel like I've just
been doing what's best for me. Anytime someone's doing what's best for them and that's
outside the normal of
rules and regulations, you know, it's
going to be scrutiny, but I haven't
done anything that bad, you know. I think
I showed some bad emotions and some
bad situations, but for the most part...
The bag of penises was kind of, you know...
I'm doing that for Valentine's Day tomorrow.
As a matter of fact, I bought you guys a gift.
Oh, man.
I bought you a gift, man.
You know?
You bought them peaches?
Oh, no.
See what you got.
See what you got, baby.
That's what the haters doing, Emme.
That's what the haters, Emme.
Oh, my gosh.
I know Charlamagne giving out a lot of ass, you know.
I know you've been giving out a lot of ass.
Oh, man.
He might watch the show.
I'm re-gifting this to Mark.
I know Charlamagne been giving out a whole lot of ass.
Damn.
I'm glad I was left out of it. No, don't do that.
Don't do that.
Don't give it to her.
It's for the gods and the haters. That's fine. I'm fine with that, don't do that. Don't give it to her. It's for the guys and the haters.
That's fine.
I'm fine with that.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
Next thing you know, you'll be getting me too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're going to do that.
Listen, I saw you do that, and I said,
I know what I'm getting of you for Valentine's Day now.
That bag of candy.
You don't have to.
I went to the website and everything.
Happy Valentine's Day, guys.
Yeah, you don't have to.
You ate it?
No, I didn't eat it.
What you chewing on?
Candy, man. Bull s***. You ate it? No, I didn't eat it. What you chewing on? Candy, man.
Bull s***.
You ate it?
No.
Candy.
I had candy.
I can't believe you ate some of the penis.
I did not eat some of the s***.
It's candy.
So let me ask you.
Let me ask you.
Let me ask you, guys.
Right here.
Look, look.
So when you do eat this, what part do you start with?
What are you talking about?
See, you can't ask me anything.
That's not a turn.
You know, we had Terrell Owens up here, right?
T.O.
And we were talking about the situation.
He said the only thing he didn't like was he felt like you put your kids on camera.
And I told him, I said, I think he even did that to make sure that he was treated fairly.
So why did you do that, if for any reason?
I just think at that time, you know, I'm really emotional.
Obviously, I was in an unfortunate situation with my girl.
And, you know, the police wasn't, you know, acting accordingly.
So, you know, for me, obviously, you want to be a good example for your kids.
And I don't feel good in no way to act in that manner in front of them.
But, you know. And you're good, right? You made up that manner in front of them. But, you know.
And you're good, right?
You made up with your everything?
Yeah, we good.
Everything is good.
You know, we fight like that.
But we got to do better for our kids independently and togetherly.
But, you know, everyone make speculations.
I got a beautiful relationship with my kids, all of them.
They all live with me in Miami.
So, you know, I just regret that moment of being on,
disrespecting the police on camera and having the kids to be there to witness.
But, you know, just a human being emotional.
Anytime you're emotional, someone trying to take your stuff, what you work for,
and the police there are supposed to be to support you. And not a lot of that happened.
You know, I kind of acted frustrated.
What do you think the NFL needs to do as far as helping you
or even other players that are going through things in their personal life
and it's affecting business?
Well, I think they just got to really show the support to help you.
You know, don't just say they're going to help.
It's been like 140 days, you know.
My agent already gave up on me.
Drew Rosenheim.
Yeah, we run to the media to tell people he don't work with me
so you know you just see
when you're down and out
like you know who really there for you
I think that has really been
one of the main reasons
that so many doors are closed on you
that your agent put that out there
nah but you know in actuality
we never really was under any contract
or nothing on paper
so for me it encouraged me to want to show people my side You know, in actuality, we never really was under any contract or nothing on paper.
So for me, it encouraged me to, you know, to want to show people, you know, my side because, you know, public perception seems to be everything.
You know, people write these stories and put negative things out there about me.
You know, I can't write the stories to protect myself or to change the narrative.
You know, I'm just the person to sit back and deal with the consequences of what's been put out.
So for me, you know, it's unfair.
Because, you know, no matter if it's right or wrong,
as long as it's out, people condemn me for it
and I have to come and be an advocate
to try to protect myself in regards of it.
So, you know, that's why I'm grateful to be here
with you guys to do the interview
and communicate and allow people to know.
Control your own narrative.
Exactly.
We have more with wide receiver Antonio Brown.
When we come back, don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with wide receiver Antonio Brown.
Charlamagne.
How do you feel about your former agent, Drew Rosenhaus?
He recently parted ways with you.
Terrell Owens.
I had Terrell Owens up here.
Yeah, I just feel like, man, Drew Rosenhaus, you know,
he took advantage of a lot of, you know, guys from Miami
and a lot of guys from situations like me.
And you just see at the end of the tunnel, you know,
he's usually not there.
You know, guys like Terrell Owens, Fred Taylor, Chad Ochocinco,
a lot of great guys who, you know, come from my areas, other areas.
You know, after their career, you don't see them doing anything.
Terrell Owens, you know, the guy got no money, went down the wrong path,
still ain't in a good position as he should.
So when I studied the game and the history of players who paved the way
and did a good job in the league with their careers and Hall of Fame-type guys.
You know, you see them.
They working on sports shows.
You know, that's all they do.
And it don't seem to me that, like, maybe a few of them,
like Deion Sanders and maybe Michael Scraitham.
But besides a few guys that we could probably hand count, you know,
they've been good on the field, but off the field,
they would come back regular.
Like, I respect Teal, but I
think he could have done more, sustain
him and keep him off the floor. Is that what you're planning to do?
That's what I'm doing right now, you know,
a whole lot of money, a million screens.
You know, I'm just creating
a lot of avenues, though. You know, I got a gym in
Miami, 84.7 Fitness, so
just trying to, you know,
establish a legacy and, you know, something I can
provide to the youth to give back that lasts forever.
Why don't more black people talk out against guys like Drew Rosenhaus?
If y'all don't say something,
he can continue to take advantage of the young brother.
Because these guys are in their position.
So the position that I am, guys like Terrell Owens,
they don't have the financial freedom to be able to say the truth.
Or I think he got an agreement with Drew Rosenhausen
where he can't even speak out about the facts.
So it's just, you know, these guys been manipulated from their finances,
manipulated in their position, so they do the coat with the mouth.
I've just been grateful that I'm in a different position.
Now let's talk about music.
What's your love for music?
Why did you get into the music industry?
Well, I always, you know, had love for music? Why did you get into the music industry? Well, I always had love for music.
And not being able to play, I wanted someone to be able to express my art
and get my emotion and my feelings out.
So one of my boys, Sean Kingston, he'd come over to my house a lot.
And we just started getting it going.
And I've been doing it ever since.
I listened to one record.
We played one record here.
And I actually was like, that wasn't bad.
I don't remember which one it was
You could say it's good
A whole lot of money
A whole lot of money
Yeah
But you know
I'm gonna be honest with you
I was just expecting it to be whack
Just cause you an athlete
And you see athletes do music
And you like
Aw man
You wanna do music now
But I'm Hemothy though
You know like
Hemothy?
Yeah
What's that mean?
I mean I'm that boy
Hemothy Tarns
You heard?
That's some Florida s***.
That's some like AB s***.
Oh, got you, got you.
Yeah.
Who is Hemothy?
Me, that mean like I'm him.
Oh, got you, got you, got you.
You say I'm Hemothy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You think the craziest people in America come from Florida?
Yeah, you gotta be.
Because it's like, you know, it's a jungle.
So, Antonio, we know you've been in the news a lot lately
for mostly negative things and some open cases.
How many open cases do you have?
I don't even know.
That many.
Do you have, like, are your lawyers doing good?
You just lost your counsel in one of them, right?
One of your cases, the lawyer stepped away, right?
No, she didn't step away.
It's just, you know, when people holding your money, you know,
you get these lawyers, two and three hundred thousand
and it's no pleading. It's no...
It's at a standstill.
And it's like they just holding money.
I'm glad you said that, though, because people think losing
your counsel in the middle of the
allegation case makes you look guilty.
No, there's no case. There's no proceeding.
There was none. It's just, you know, why
would I have a lawyer just sitting on $200,000 with no proceeding?
So they could just tell me, hey, baby, I ran out of time and the money's gone.
Did you watch the XFL games?
No, I don't really watch, you know, lower class football.
But you're there playing arena football.
I know, because he was a lower class football player.
You weren't curious at all to see what the games were like?
No, I don't support XFL, man.
If it ain't the highest level, man, I don't want to do it.
If the NFL decides, you know what, we won't take you back,
you won't even consider it?
No, I'm not playing XFL, man.
You had a conversation with John Gruden recently, right?
How do you know that?
Man, you be getting the homework.
I'm just asking.
Yeah, I did, I did.
How'd that go?
I think John Gruden was always one of my big supporters.
When I played with the Raiders, he always
did talk. He'd be like, man, you was dynamic this day,
but this day you was emotional.
But, you know, it just comes with being
in new places, you know.
I think if it
happened to be a second chance with him,
I look forward to it. You think it's going to happen? How likely
is that? Did y'all talk about that?
First, I got to remove all the cases, get a life coach,
try to win over a coach in the NFL,
have him try to win over the junior manager,
and have the junior manager be able to tell the owner he supports AB.
That's kind of the process and the steps of how I could get back,
removing all the cases, getting with a life coach
and hopefully influencing one of the coaches and junior managers
and one of the owners to give me an opportunity.
We ain't got time for all that.
You're not a young man no more, AB.
It's got to happen sooner than later.
I got five weeks, man, five weeks is when free agency starts.
So that's when the process for the year starts.
So we'll see where they're at.
Was there ever a time that you felt like you just didn't want to play in the NFL anymore?
No, I think I always wanted to play.
I just think the things that you got to deal with with playing
is the things that kind of make you run away from the NFL.
Owners can't fall in love with players.
You know, it's a business.
When you kind of understand the rules, you know,
imagine, you know, you being the receiver,
you got to depend on the quarterback.
Quarterback never invite you over to his house.
He never really treat you like a human being.
So normally, naturally, as a human,
you're going to be a resentment.
After a while, you know, those resentments,
you know, usually turn to anger.
And then your anger, you know, turn to your frustration
and now you react reacting the wrong way.
Is that what happened with Big Ben?
Yeah, kind of.
So what made you apologize to him yesterday?
Because I'm like, through it all, you know,
no matter if someone did negative or positive,
you know, I'm in control of my actions, you know,
so I got to look at it.
Even though this person that way, what could I have done, you know?
A lot of things he might have did wrong,
but I can't make excuses of what I did
You know so I think I could have handled myself better at the time out of emotion
I just did what I thought was right so when he wouldn't invite you over to his house
For dinner and wouldn't hang out with you. That's what made you say man. It's my racist
Did you know you called him racist? I'm just trying to put the piece
It was a lot more. You know that was you know into you know, into it. You know, I think. Like what?
That's a heavy claim to call somebody a racist.
I mean, you apologized for it.
Nah, like, as a leader with Big Ben, you know, he already won championships.
He already done, you know, what everybody want to do as a player.
You know, every player want to win, you know.
So, for me, it ain't about personal relationship because you ain't got to be my friend. I'm familiar with just coming to work and just doing my job.
But, you know, it's another thing when people act like they're your friend and it's really not.
You know, that's when you have an issue.
So he was acting like he was your friend.
Yeah, I think it was all to act with him, you know, guys around him.
You know, they never could really see eye to eye.
But, you know, I just feel like I'm at the point where, man, I'm trying to win.
You know, I'm getting older in the game, 10 years in. And I'm like, s***, man, you know what it takes to eye, but, you know, I just feel like I'm at the point where, man, I'm trying to win. You know, I'm getting older in the game, 10 years in,
and I'm like,
man, you know what it takes to win, man.
Just help us win. Do what it takes to, you know,
bring the guys around and show us how to win.
What made you call him racist, though?
Because you from Florida.
So you be around some crack-ass crackers.
When you call a white man racist, you seen some
s***, A.B.
Nah, I just think out of emotion, you know?
But in all in all, man, I'm forever grateful for Ben, man,
what we've been able to do in the NFL the last 10 years.
It's unparalleled to none.
All right, we got more with Antonio Brown.
When we come back, don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're still kicking it with wide receiver Antonio Brown.
Charlamagne?
What about your man Juju Smith?
You know, you took some shots at him on social media,
and he said, like, that ain't be with my guy.
No, no.
Where that came from?
I never took no shots at the kid like him personally.
That's like if, Charlamagne, you get a new job
at another radio station, and DJ Envy, you know,
you post a picture with DJ Envy in the back of you saying, you ready.
You know what I mean?
That might happen.
That sounds crazy.
You know what I'm saying?
Envy, Envy, how would you take that?
Envy, how would you take that?
Is that disrespectful?
Exactly.
I'm going at him.
Exactly.
So, I get it.
Wait, how close behind him are you standing?
He's standing like, you know, right there.
So, listen. Does he have this in his hand? When he's behind you? He's standing like, you know, right there. So listen.
Does he have this in his hand?
He should have had this in his hand.
He should have had this in his hand.
So he posts a picture when I leave and get a new contract with the Raiders.
He posts a picture of him scoring on the Raiders with me in the back,
like open, saying, like, he ready.
So all I said was I was just calling him back out.
They gave him MVP of the team.
The year I had 15 touchdowns.
And so I'm like, okay, let's just, you know, as sports competitors,
let's see if you could be who I am.
So then the guy get 500 yards, and then I say, bro, you got 500 yards.
It was a joke.
I came out to him for football.
I didn't come out to him for personal. Have y'all spoke at all? You pick up the phone and reach out to him? Yeah, yeah, we got 500 yards. It was a joke. I came after him for football. I didn't come after him for personal.
Have y'all spoke at all?
Did you pick up the phone and reach out to him?
Yeah, yeah, we talked, man.
We reached out and just hashed it out on a positive note.
I think, you know, people just do stuff online.
You know, I think online just...
People hype it up, too.
Yeah, that's what it is.
Gas people up.
Well, people say the same thing about you lately on Instagram.
I've just been showing, like, the reality.
I just got a lot of free time.
You posted your bank account.
Yeah, to let people know I'm not a broke player.
A lot of these players say they got money like certain guys,
and then they're like, bro, you on TV talking about me.
Like, Terrell Owens is a good friend of mine,
but it's like he coming at my house to try to give me speeches.
I'm like, bro, what am I going to listen to you on?
Like, if you ain't listen to yourself, like, how am I going to take your advice?
Well, maybe he made mistakes and he's like, look, I did this, I messed up.
Yeah, but guys these days ain't good leaders, man.
Most of these guys won't even show you their mistakes, man.
You got to already be knowledgeable about these guys already, man. Most people hiding their scars and can't even, like, say the reality of what they've been through or what they did.
Because if they can, I would have already saw it already.
Who could you listen to?
Like, who do you feel like is somebody that talks to you that you're like, okay, I'll take advice from that person?
I got some good people on my corner now.
They probably wouldn't rather me say their name.
Okay.
But you got to have good people to talk to.
That's why I talk with the therapist as well, you know,
someone who could be receptive and not trying to social gain
or do something for cloud or take something from you.
And that supports your mental health.
You know, mental health is not just, you know, having an issue
or having frustration or anger.
You know, it's just talking to people that support
your well-being and
people that just not
want to take and make
something from you.
I'm glad that you say
that because, you know,
especially coming from,
you know, the environment
you come from, you
probably got traumas
and shit just from the
hood that you didn't
deal with.
Now you get into the
NFL and you get all
of this money.
Now you got to deal
with all of this shit.
It's like a lot of
trauma to unpack, you
know?
And I think we're
comfortable dealing with
trauma, you know, because I'm having're comfortable dealing with trauma, you know,
because I'm having so much trauma.
It's not normal, though.
It's not normal for us to have to deal with the shit we have to deal with.
People get killed.
Yeah, yeah.
People get shot.
Like, that ain't normal.
But that will come out normal.
We from those areas, you know.
No matter how much money we get or how far we go or where we get, you know,
we always based and planted on the soil where we from.
Back in 2016, you got hit by Vontaze Burfitt.
Oh, yeah.
And it gave you a concussion.
Yeah.
Do you think that had any lasting impact?
Man, I think if you play the game long enough,
you're going to get your ass kicked.
You're going to get hit.
I haven't been hit enough of those type of hits.
I played 10 years, one big hit.
It wasn't that bad.
I don't know why people want to just always ask me about the hit.
Because they feel like after that hit, the behavior started to get strange.
People like to say, I think AD might have CTD.
After that hit, they made me the highest paid receiver in 2017.
The Steelers gave me five for 71.
It's like facts.
I think people just be trying to find anything and pinpoint that I got issues, man.
I just told the whole NFL and the world I needed 30 million guaranteed
or I wasn't going to play.
I went on the HBO show with LeBron James and stressed that I got the 30 million.
But then you lost it.
You know what I'm saying?
But that wasn't in my control, you know?
I went and did what I said.
I told you I ain't need it.
I told you I wanted it.
I went and got it.
They made a rule.
Then I went to the Patriots. I was going to go for like 2, I tell you I want it. I went and got it. They made a rule. Then I went to the Patriots.
I was going to go for like 2,000 yards
and then they didn't want to see it.
They got rid of me for
who say, she say.
I didn't really know you could lose your job
if he say, she say.
Their sexual assault allegations?
Is that case still open?
The case just on pause.
I got a confidentiality that I had to sign in March,
you know, that I couldn't even defend myself.
You know, this is a trainer girl who used to stay over at my house,
who used to take me to gymnastics spots to train, who wanted me to invest in her business.
But, you know, the NFL, no information, but, you know, I can't really,
can't even defend myself.
Like, you know what I'm saying?
Like, imagine that, you know what I mean? You see the world just scrutinize you, and, can't even defend myself. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, imagine that, you know what I mean?
You see the world just scrutinize you, and you can't even defend yourself,
and you don't even have no one out there advocating for your well-being, you know?
What about the $100,000 to give to the hospital?
What about the kids in Liberty City?
What about, you know, I'm just not a guy from Liberty City, you know?
I'm like the hero from Liberty City, you know?
Do you regret texting her after the fact?
No, man, like, imagine you know someone and be like, you know? Do you regret texting her after the fact? No, man. Or texting about her? Like, imagine you know someone,
and be like, you took care of them.
And then there's the sad part is,
at my charity baseball game in Pittsburgh,
the young lady who, on the assault,
she meets the same girl at the charity event
who said the same thing.
So it's like, it's already illegal.
You can't reach out to someone else's counsel
to try to bring
them on board of your movement to bring me down so that's illegal in itself you know that's distortion
but you know you know no one want to seem to protect the guy who who seem like they're in
the best position of life you know people want to really bring you down do you hear these people
saying things like oh anton Antonio Brown might have CTE?
Have you gone and got your brain checked, anything?
I mean, you can't check until you die.
I'm sure anyone who's playing football got some form of CTE.
How much personal accountability does Antonio Brown take
for everything that's happened to him over the past year or so?
I take full responsibility.
I'm the guy in this position.
I'm the guy in these shoes.
I put my heart, my *** right under'm the guy in this position. I'm the guy in these shoes, you know.
I put my heart, you know, my *** right under my heart,
my foot on the ground.
My attention's set, you know.
I take full responsibility for my action. You got the chocolate *** right under your heart.
My *** under my heart, you heard?
My goodness.
That's good.
I'm glad to hear you say that, man,
because a lot of people can't take personal accountability.
That's what being a man and that's what being a right human being is about,
you know, growing. And it's just a part of my growth, you know. We all been through things that encourage have to. That's what being a man and that's what being a right human being is about, you know,
growing.
And it's just a part
of my growth.
You know, we all been
through things that
encourage our growth
and make us a better person.
Hopefully this will make me
a better person,
a stronger person.
And I appreciate
all my blessings moving forward.
So you're going to therapy.
You're taking personal
accountability.
You're still in shape.
Don't f*** this up
by going on Instagram
and saying some wild s***
in the next week or so.
Okay, you got five weeks.
All right?
My goodness.
Well, we appreciate you joining us.
Introduce your record, man.
Let's play your record.
And this is Antonio Brown right here on The Breakfast Club.
Just gave the bag of s*** out, man.
I got a whole lot of money as well, too, man.
What do you get for Valentine's Day if you're giving out a bag of s***?
Yeah, man.
I'm taking my girl somewhere, you know?
Where you taking her?
I'm gonna figure it out.
It's a whole weekend.
You got a whole weekend.
Your girl is your ex.
You guys are back together
or is it somebody different?
Oh, no.
It's complicated.
Wow.
You're about to be
cursing her out again
when she sees this s***.
Yeah.
My goodness.
Who is your girl?
You see you shooting
your shot at people
on social media.
Nah, nah. Who I shot my shot? But then we see, so when you speak is your girl? You see you're shooting your shot at people on social media.
Nah, nah.
Who I shot my shot?
But then we see.
So when you speak about your girl.
I ain't shooting no shot.
So you going out of time for Valentine's with your bae?
Yeah.
Damn.
Does your baby mama know that?
Or she just found out just now?
No, my baby mama is my bae though. Okay.
There you go.
So y'all going out of time this weekend?
Man, why you being nosy?
My goodness.
It's Antonio Brown.
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary?
Consider this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of 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 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. We need help. We still have the off-road portion to go.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
learning to trust herself,
and leaning into her dreams.
I think a lot of times we are built to doubt
the possibilities for ourselves.
For self-preservation and protection,
it was literally that step by step.
And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going.

It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, a shout to
Jillian Choco Berries.
They just dropped off
a nice package for my kids,
my daughter.
Some fresh strawberries
and chocolate
looking like unicorns,
which is my daughter's
favorite animal.
She loves unicorns.
She was very excited.
She was very excited.
I FaceTimed her.
I'm not going to salute
Antonio Brown.
Antonio Brown came up here
and bought a very thoughtful
Valentine's Day gift this morning.
What did he bring?
A booty burn?
Why?
It's like you don't know.
You got one.
He gave you a chocolate penis and he gave me a chocolate penis.
And when you open the box up, it says E to D.
It's the thought that counts.
It's the thought that counts.
Okay.
Well, thank you also for my present as well.
Okay.
They got me some macaroons and some chocolate-covered strawberries that are gold and silver.
Nice. For Valentine's Day.
Thank you.
And thank you to Sean as well.
All right.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Wendy Williams.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Gossip.
With Angela. Angela Yee.
It's the Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, people are upset about Wendy Williams making these comments.
They were talking about Galentine's Day.
What is Galentine's Day? What is Galentine's Day?
What's that?
It's a holiday that was created by Parks and Recreation.
It's ladies celebrating ladies.
So she asked who was going to be celebrating Galentine's Day,
and that's when some gay men started clapping.
And here's what she said.
Clap if you're participating in Galentine's Day.
Well, first of all, if you're a man and you're clapping,
you're not even a part of this, okay? I of all, if you're a man and you're clapping, you're not even a part
of this. Okay. I don't care if you're gay. You don't get a mensee every 28 days. I get offended
by the idea that we go through something you will never go through and stop wearing our skirts and
our heels. They'll never get the menopause. But look at here now, gay men. You'll never be the woman that we are.
Damn, why she gave him that type of tongue lashing?
What did the gay people do to this other guy?
Sheesh.
Stop wearing our skirts and heels.
Sheesh.
A lot of people were going in on her over that.
But don't they call the gay men sis sometime?
They say, sis, why can't a gay single man participate in Galentine's Day?
And why can't you wear whatever you decide you want to wear?
If you want to wear a skirt and heels, hey.
I mean, she's right about the whole...
If you want to be in that pain of wearing heels and the uncomfortability of it just like we are, go right ahead.
I mean, she's right about the whole period and menopause stuff, but what did I have to do with anything?
I don't know.
Not sure.
Jesus Christ.
All right, Rihanna is in the studio.
She posted on her Instagram stories,
gang, back in the stew.
And you can see the Neptunes on the screen in the studio.
So it looks like she's working on some new music with the Neptunes.
No, she might have just been visiting, passing through.
I'm sure she was working on some music.
Well, she said back in the stew.
So that means she's back in the studio.
Rihanna makes a lot of money.
You know that?
She does.
Like that Fenty Beauty brand is worth like a half a billion.
She owns like 40% of the company.
I ain't gonna lie.
I might not want to do records again either.
Music.
Music.
I scoff at music.
But maybe that's her first love.
And that's not all it's about.
No.
If you love making music, you love performing.
She got eight albums, right?
Eight or ten.
She's done enough.
She got a lot.
She can just chill out and relax
for the rest of her life.
Well, she's in the studio, guys.
Okay.
So that's what it is.
All right, Gil King has accepted Snoop Dogg's apology.
We played this apology that Snoop made yesterday
because his mom told him two wrongs don't make a right.
Gil King.
I probably tore you down
by coming at you in a derogatory manner
based off of emotions,
me being angry at questions that you asked.
I should have handled it way different than that.
I was raised way better than that.
So I would like to apologize to you publicly
for the language that I used
and calling you out of your name and just being disrespectful.
Anytime you mess up, it's okay to fix it.
It's okay to man up and say that you won't.
I apologize.
Hopefully we can sit down and talk privately.
Alright, Gil King responded.
I accept the apology and understand the raw
emotions caused by this tragic loss.
I'm deeply sorry the questions I asked
added to that pain. That was never my intention.
As a journalist, it is sometimes
challenging to balance doing my job
with the emotions and feelings during difficult
times. I don't always get it perfect,
but I'm constantly striving to do it with compassion and integrity.
Yeah, I respect it.
Gail offended people, she apologized.
Snoop offended people, he apologized.
The worst part about this whole situation to me
is the original discussion is lost.
I don't even think we even got to have the original discussion
about journalism and how soon is too soon
and should those things even be talked about.
But, you know, it's always a difference of opinion.
Some people feel like, as a journalist,
you put aside emotions,
and some people feel like, no,
you have to respect what's going on
and the history of accusations and allegations.
Yeah, I agree.
It's a difference of opinion.
That's why I wish we would have had that discussion.
That discussion got lost amongst all of this.
All right, now, Jadakiss has shared some details
about something I know we all want to see, the upcoming LOX documentary.
It was an interview he did at the Rock Nation Brunch, and he opened up a little bit about it.
So he said that it was originally filmed in 2018, and it's still not out, but he does want the world to see a more human side to them.
He said it's about showing people some side of the locks
you never get to see.
You only know us as rappers,
but it shows stories of fatherhood with our children
and family moments and things that you see offstage.
So, should be interesting to check out that new documentary.
All right, I'm Angela Yee,
and that is your Rumor Report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, when we come back, Charlamagne, you're giving Donkey the Day to Hoof on his Valentine's Day.
Man, you know, it's crazy, man.
You know, it's crazy when you just be out here, you know, putting out positive energy and trying to be here for people.
And you have people who hate on that.
You know, it's people who actually hate on me because I choose to celebrate those who participate in this day that we call Valentine's Day, but they call sad, which is single awareness day.
We'll talk about it for after the hour.
I just can't believe y'all mad at me because I'm here for the less fortunate.
Oh, all right.
We'll do that when we come back.
And then next hour, also 50 Cent will be joining us.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
We're going to be a donkey because right now you want some real donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heel.
Did she get donkey in the name, please, Debbie?
Absolutely.
I have become Donkey of the Day.
That's a breakfast club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Donkey of the Day for Friday, February 14th, Valentine's Day 2020.
Today's Donkey of the Day goes to everyone who gets mad at me every year
because on today, I don't just celebrate folks like myself,
folks like Envy, you know, who are married and in relationships with their soulmates,
folks like myself who have women we can't live without. Women who
when I look at, I see God who make
me better in every way, shape, and form.
No, I just don't think about how
good I got it.
I don't think about how good we got it.
On Valentine's Day, I think about
the less fortunate. The folks who aren't
in relationships. People mad at me
calling me a hater because I choose
to celebrate the folks who are
single. Okay, listen to
one of the callers from this morning. Listen!
You's a hater. Every
year, you always hate on
the single folks.
Why are you upset if you're not single?
I'm not single, but
it's just bad. You are such
a hater.
Why am I a hater?
Because I choose to acknowledge the single folks.
Why am I a hater?
Because I choose to acknowledge that today is National Single Awareness Day.
The acronym for Single Awareness Day is SAD.
So when I say to you today is SAD, don't think I'm talking about your feelings.
Don't think I'm talking about your emotions.
This has nothing to do with the state of mind that being single
can have you in. For everyone listening
to me in the car right now, you have
no Valentine, don't worry about it.
Your seatbelt will hold you. I ain't
gonna hold you, okay? Literally or
figuratively, meaning I'm not gonna hold you and waste your time
and I'm not gonna hold you because black men
don't cheat, alright? Don't tell me I'm a hater because I'm
thinking about how Valentine's Day is one of the most
unwelcome days of the year
for half of the population of the universe that Thanos would have snapped.
Some people are forever alone.
You know, some people, instead of being single, is fresh.
I can still smell your ex on you.
In fact, it's a good chance you're all so freshly broke up that, you know,
they may still be trying to be your Valentines right now.
Trust me, if you're freshly single and you're holding out hope that y'all may get back together if he or she doesn't show up today with an oversized stuffed animal or
a bunch of red roses then it's probably over over done done finished and that's fine and i know i
know you can get your own candy you hate balloons flowers die i get it everybody hates valentine's
day stuff but the funny thing is the people who hate valentine's day stuff. But the funny thing is, the people who hate Valentine's Day stuff are usually the people who are in healthy relationships,
who receive that kind of stuff all of the time.
So they kind of like take it for granted.
If you have to, you know, be one of the folks celebrating sad single awareness day,
then you realize, man, all that stuff you didn't appreciate, you sure wish you had somebody to hate it all with today.
It's okay. It's okay.
My therapist tells me all the time
that you have to feel
your feels. So don't be afraid
to embrace that feeling of loneliness. You are
human. Of course you want a companion.
A human companion.
Not one of those creatures formerly called
pets. Salute to PETA. Right,
Steve? You don't want to just be, look, oh, Steve, I'm
sorry. I know that'm sorry i know that hurt
i know that hurts steve i know it did okay you want a human okay i know you want something with
an arm leg leg arm head that you can call your own all praises due to allah and that's exactly
who you should have been praying to because if you did then you wouldn't be in the solitary
valentine's day situation that you're in right now. I'm not single-shaming you, though.
I'm here for you, okay?
See, in radio, they teach us that radio personalities are your friends
when you don't have any, your companions when you are by yourself.
So if that logic is true, we have to be your Valentine when you don't have one,
and that's what we are here for.
All of you celebrating Valentine's Day with nobody, we are here for you.
We want the best for you.
We don't want you to be angry and bitter on today because energy is never lost or destroyed.
It's merely transfer from one party to the next.
And some of y'all out there upset thinking about how to ruin someone else's Valentine's Day
because you don't have anyone to celebrate it with, and we don't want that.
Don't be like Ruth Phoenix.
Do you know who Ruth Phoenix is?
No.
Me neither.
But I know I saved one of her tweets to use as an example of what you don't want to do.
On January 24th, 2015, Ruth Phoenix tweeted out,
Can't wait until Valentine's Day.
I'm going to run into as many restaurants as I can, shouting,
No, I would find you here,
you bastard, then run out. Don't do that. Don't be like Roof, okay? That's no way to celebrate sad Single Awareness Day. And please don't have the energy of Robin McCulley, who on March 5th,
2014, tweeted out, saw a couple holding hands while jogging, and it made me hopeful that one
day I will meet someone who will hate them with me. Don't be like Robin.
When you see somebody else who's blessed and in love, you celebrate that
because one day, one day, it'll be your turn.
Okay, by the way, does anyone know if Rufa Robin ever found somebody?
I need to go on their pages and see, okay?
And I will as soon as I finish scrolling through my single homegirls' pages
and seeing what their life is like.
For example, my family who goes by the name of DJ Cuppy,
drop on a Clues Bonsai DJ Cuppy.
She just posted all the way from Nigeria on her IG page
a big pink heart with the words single AF.
You know what AF stands for, right?
Single AF.
My brothers, please go to her IG page.
It's Cuppy Music.
She's got like 4.8 million followers.
Please go to her page and post under that picture and tell her you will
be her Valentine's. Please. And tell her
I sent you. Alright? I can't stand to see her
like this. I went on her page and my first reaction
was to leave laughing emojis because I thought
it was hilarious. But then I left a broken heart emoji
because I felt my sister's pain.
It's rough, man. Today is rough.
Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?
Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?
No, seriously.
Turn it down a little bit, Drom.
Let's turn it down a little bit.
No, seriously.
Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?
It's not a good feeling.
It's worse than heartburn.
And it hurts my feelings that you have to feel that today. Okay?
I need you to have strength on sad.
Okay? Single awareness
day. I need you to have strength.
Matter of fact, look in the mirror and say to yourself
right now, me,
myself, and
I. Okay?
That's all
you got in the end. Okay?
Today.
Today, you got to be your own best friend.
No, seriously.
Stop, John.
Stop.
Stop.
Because I have empathy for these people.
I really do.
All right?
I don't want them to think that they're alone today because you have us, the Breakfast Club.
All right?
Now, you only got us till 10 a.m.
Keep that in mind.
Okay?
I mean, you can hit us up on social media after that, but we probably won't see it today because I have a wife.
And if you have a wife, you got a boyfriend.
Okay.
And we love our people dearly.
And when you have someone you love dearly on Valentine's Day, well, you know, no need for me to rub it in.
Okay.
Because I can see the tears welling up in your eyes.
But I need you, all right, to tell yourself that you're not going to cry.
Whoa. Whoa.
Whoa.
Listen.
You're not going to shed no tears.
No, it's not the time.
He or she is not worth your tears.
Okay, it's not the time.
All right, look, all you folks, stop, stop, drum.
You're doing too much.
I can't even believe you would do that.
Look, all you folks who think I'm hating on single people, stop it. I am not. I am
providing support. And if you are mad
at the support that I provide on SAD, which is
Single Awareness Day, then I have
to hit you with the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's.
Oh, now you
are the donkey
of the
day.
You are the donkey
of the day.
Yee-haw.
I'm trying not to be petty, but I have to just say one more thing.
I do have to tell everyone out there with no valentine the reality of the situation.
There's a few things that you should know.
Really not a few things, just three.
Number one,
if you're a woman,
Sierra's prayer didn't work. Number
two, if you're a man,
Russell Wilson's prayer didn't work.
And number three, we are acknowledging
you on SAD, which is Single Awareness Day.
And even though I am with you now
until about 10 a.m.,
I can't be with you all day.
And it pains me to tell you this harsh truth,
but you need to hear this.
It should take you lonely now.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh!
It really hurts to have to tell you this every year.
It really does.
But you can't argue with reality, all right?
And that is just the reality of the situation.
It's early right now.
You're just getting up.
People are up and about.
They're hustling and bustling.
You at work.
Throughout the day, people are going to start getting flowers and balloons and all types of stuff.
Then you realize you got to go home, and it's 5 o'clock traffic traffic so you feel like a lot of people with you. But boy, when you get in that goddamn house
and take that bra off
and you take them boxes off
and put on them
basketball shorts.
Whoa.
Whoa.
That's all I'm saying.
It can be rough.
Stay off Instagram.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
Have a blessed day.
Thank you for that
donkey of the day.
Well, shout out to everybody
out there who's being patient
until the right person
comes along.
I can see the comments now. At least I'm happy. I don't care today. Well, shout out to everybody out there who's being patient until the right person comes along. I can see the comments now.
At least I'm happy.
I don't like Valentine's Day anyway.
You know, you can be happy and be single.
You can.
Yes, you can, man.
Stop it.
I'm spreading love to all of my single people out there who are listening.
Y'all don't feel pressured just to be in a relationship just because it's Valentine's Day
or everybody else has negative things to say about that.
Ask Astro.
Just be patient and wait until you find the right person.
Ask Astro.
Ask Astro.
But you got to boo, though.
You got to boo.
All right.
She's telling y'all all that, but she got to boo.
Well, no, I'm just spreading love.
If I'm happy, I want to spread love to other people.
I'm spreading love, too.
We here for y'all.
All right.
Until 10 a.m.
Up next.
After that.
50 Cent is up next. After that, you're on your own. We're going to kick it with 50 Cent. Until 10 a.m. Up next. After that. 50 Cent is up next.
After that, you're on your own.
We're going to kick it with 50, so don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
So sorry.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Yes, sir.
50.
Good morning, Mr. Kid 50 Cent.
Mr. Positivity now. That's right. Apologize for making you wait, too, man. And listen Good morning, Mr. Kid 50 Cent. Mr. Positivity now.
That's right.
Apologize for making you wait, too, man.
And listen, set up a boxing match between me and Rene.
I'm tired of Rene talking to me crazy.
He be talking crazy.
Yeah, he used to talk to these fat-ass DJs and program directors like that.
And I know we had you waiting, but you're going to come to me talking about,
why you have my man waiting 45 minutes?
Come on, B.
What are you talking about?
It was traffic, too.
It was traffic coming over.
Yeah, so set up the boxing match.
And they got to put the gloves on.
He said he ready.
I need three minutes.
He be doing a little boxing training, too.
But you ain't got nothing to worry about.
You get this light-skinned asshole.
I need three minutes.
That's all we need.
Well, first of all, let's wrap up power now that you're here.
Okay, so you put out a lot of different endings.
I always watch the show in the beginning on Sunday,
like super early in the morning because I want to make sure I see it,
you know, before nighttime because I always try to go to bed early.
So was that the ending that you had always envisioned
or did you think, well, maybe we should try this?
That was the first plan.
They had shot like five different endings to it,
like everybody actually killing them in a different
by so many situation well it was just because the possibility of it being leaked yeah yeah and
which has happened before yeah so i was like we had put that together that that we would allow
that to dictate what was going on but the ultimately that that led into, like, the one that we used led to the story that you're going to see that happens in Power Book 2.
And that's where Mary J. Blige and Method Man and Wood and a few other people just joined.
That's a good cast for that.
Where the hell did Canis Ghost come from, man?
That's the only, like, where did that happen?
And they just be talking to the ghosts like that's normal for them to see ghosts all the time.
Yeah, but you know, it'sback, they got that flashback component.
There was a lot of flashback people that came down.
That wasn't no flashback.
That was a ghost.
Yeah, like everybody, this was one day.
The last five episodes was the same day.
Got you.
So this is like when people drift off, they're like, yo, they didn't even have a funeral for ghosts.
It's only that he just died today.
You know, I know you waited six months to see the next part of it,
but it happened the same day, the way the concept of writing it.
And now there's four spinoffs.
Yeah, four spinoff shows.
Power Book 2, the one we're talking about.
Power Book 3 is Raising Canaan.
Think Goodfellas, because I have the voiceover component.
Ray Liotta was Sonny's voice.
So I'll be playing. You'll hear my voice during the show at different points of that component. Like, Ray Liotta was Sonny's voice. Mm-hmm. So I'll be playing,
you'll hear my voice
during the show
at different points
of that one.
And then,
um,
Tom.
Tom,
well,
yeah,
it's influence.
Mm-hmm.
That's,
that's Lorenz Tate's.
That,
that,
that one episode
Lorenz did
with his brother
and his family,
that made me,
I'm like,
I would like,
I would like to see
more of that storyline.
And that one is like,
like House of Cards,
because it starts to get off a little more politics,
but you already see what kind of person Congressman Tate is.
He'll do whatever you got to do, like on the street side.
And how do you put it out?
You put it all out on one time, or does one Power Book comes out of this month
and this one come out next year?
How do you release those?
The Western and Power Book 2 will come on right where Power would come on so like summer that'll be there and then by the next season you'll be seeing power book three
and then i order so public four then lorenz tate and then you'll see the tommy show do you own
stars yet no but i'm very very invested how much equity you got fifth i know you gotta have equity
in stuff no i don't i don't any equity, but they're paying me enough.
They're paying me enough for me to be happy with it.
I love seeing you talk to white people crazy.
Like, I'm not even joking.
I just don't know how you get away with it.
You sit with it.
But I love it.
Yeah, he says you and...
It was Snoop.
It was Snoop.
You Trump and Snoop.
Why not Trump get away with it?
He white.
And he rich.
How exactly did you get away?
I'm a rapper.
I'm a rapper.
I get a chance to use the rapper card when they do it.
You know, as soon as things go wrong, they go rapper 50 Cent.
Between time, they be like, hip-hop mogul.
Right, right, right.
Well, congratulations on your star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, by the way.
That was big, man.
That was fun.
Look, I wasn't anticipating that one.
Like, you know, the award shows, it's usually, you know, you nominate it and you see whether you're going to get it or not.
And a lot of the guys that I appreciate don't even have their star yet.
They don't have a star on the Walk of Fame.
But when they told me they was going to do it, I was like, oh, okay, cool.
And then it got really exciting when everybody was there.
Yeah, Dr. Dre, Eminem.
Yeah, yeah.
Chris Alberg, all these guys that worked with me in my career.
And then Mary here hit me to congratulate me.
And I was like, yo, I'm nervous.
You still get nervous, fam?
Nah, I thought I should have wrote something down now that everybody was there.
I should have planned it a little bit.
And I'm like, because you don't really get to do that again.
Yeah, because I saw you shout out Michael Blackson.
I was like, why the f*** you shout out Michael Blackson?
Michael Blackson didn't have nothing to do with it.
Now you know that was
nervous energy.
That was nervous
completely.
I was like,
I looked,
Michael Blackson
had on like a big pink suit.
I was like,
you shout out to Michael Blackson.
I was all over,
you know,
I was scared of it.
Now let's talk about
full life.
No, wait a minute.
I want you to clear
something up because
I don't like when people
put misinformation out there
I saw French Montana say
That you paid for the star
But once you get nominated
Everybody pays for the star
That's what I was always told
Yeah
But look he just
I don't know what's wrong
With that kid
Like something's wrong
With him
You know what I mean
Like it's the drugs
I think it's the drugs
Getting high
And just say stuff
Cause he didn't have to
To say anything Like a lot of times Like when he's doing all this with his face and stuff
Like there's nobody said I wasn't gonna say anything. Why is he saying something?
You're not the one that said we got into a fight and upon
That you beat up him outside of a club
No, but you didn't start you didn't say that it was just somehow somebody said it when they saw that little altercation
They put in the person who posted it said 50 just punch French Montana, right? But you didn't start. You didn't say that. It was just somehow somebody said it. When they saw that little altercation,
the person who posted it said,
50 just punched French Montana in the face.
And I didn't do that.
But he makes it look crazy.
Like all the extra stuff made it, you know, just enhanced it.
And what happened with the Bugatti?
I went, look, they tried to play me, man.
I mean, French is my Bugatti.
I know what happened with your Bugatti. No, no, no.
Look, after I went to Mad Motors, I know what happened with your Bugatti. After I went to
Matt Motors and we had that
problem with Brian over there,
he puts up
the Bugatti, he's talking about, well, he had
toilet paper in his little
video, and he's talking about
I gotta be the biggest
in New York.
Like he said, I got the Bugatti first.
Gotta be the biggest. He's talking about, like he said, I got the Bugatti first. Got to be the biggest.
And he's talking about
it's the cars
that are even the same color
as the wrong year.
The Chiron I'm talking about
was the 2020 Chiron.
And he had a...
This is all too rich for me.
It's rich as f***.
No, no.
Like, I'm not, you know,
I don't know what you think.
No, but it's an 08.
If you buy an 08,
man, it's like $700,000.
That's not a lot. It's not. Because you could it's an 08. If you buy an 08, man, it's like $700,000 a car.
That's not a lot.
It's not, because you could take, think about it.
That's a lot of money.
Sorry, it is. I mean, to me, that's a lot of money.
Yeah, but that's not a lot.
Because if you put $300,000 down, he's still paying like $50,000 a month.
So that, as long as he's doing a show per month,
he's going to be fine paying for the car.
But it's a bad investment
because there ain't
going to be nowhere
for you to get rid of it.
Or they was happy
to get rid of it to him.
Like they found a dummy
that wanted to have
the name Bugatti
in the yard
because at 08,
what you want with that?
Like that was already
the guy's,
like his real car.
Like he was driving
it like a regular car now
because it's 08 and it's 2020.
Alright, we got more with 50 Cent.
When we come back, let's get into a 50 Cent mini
mix. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Nobody.
Let's go. We'll be right back. What up, cuz? What up? What up, gangsta? They say I walk around like I got an S on my chest.
No, that's...
In the vest of my chest.
That was a 50 Cent mini mix.
50 is here.
Morning, everybody.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Ye.
Let's flash back to what you said on Instagram.
You said, and I want you to clarify this,
because we had a whole discussion about what you meant by this statement, right?
You said, I feel like I have to achieve what I want
in life now. After this, I have to focus. I'm not
arguing with anyone anymore. I'll deal with it another way
if there's a problem. Now, I thought you meant
that if there's a problem,
it's not going to be any back and forth on social media.
I'm just going to, you know...
Punch in the face. Okay. I told you.
I was wrong. I thought that you just meant
we're going to just talk it out behind
the scenes, but you are going to punch somebody in the face.
We just deal with it differently because I feel like they're turning me into a marketing campaign.
Why do you think people are trying you now, Cliff?
I don't know.
Because there was a point where I don't think people would try you.
Why now?
I think they've seen so many other people be recognizable during those periods
that they were attempting that and then i don't i don't even
look i think that and i was being funny when i said that i think we could talk it out okay yeah
i'd like to talk to thank you emily charlamagne thought you meant i'm gonna punch you in the face
when i see you and i thought he meant i don't think he meant i thought he meant
in light of everything that's happened no more of this back and forth I'm not even dabbling in that anymore
No, that was me being competitive
And competing because the competitive nature
Of hip hop is there
You gotta compete
And create something
It drives you to go write something
Or go do something right away
It's also records following those things
But when you're not doing that
You're looking and you're going
Why'd you pick in that? If I'm
talking to Puffy, I'm talking to Puffy. Your name's not Puffy.
Your name's not Diddy. You know what I'm saying?
He know how to respond to it. Even what's his name?
His son,
Quincy, he's
casted in one of the shows. One of your shows?
Yeah. Oh, wow.
Ain't got nothing to do with Puffy. His work
got him in it. He's been working,
doing his thing.
There's no permanent friends
and enemies
when it comes to business, right?
No.
And it's just,
this is somebody
who worked on it.
He ain't got,
like, that's not,
I would never not
work with Puffy's kids
or anybody around that.
Like, if we had issues,
an issue between me and him,
and we'll talk about it.
But that's a new fifth,
because back in the day,
if you stood by somebody, fifth had a problem,
and fifth was gunning at you, too.
Nah, look, look.
Fifth is not going to catch John Lewis.
I do, I do.
Look at this stuff.
You're not going to catch John Lewis.
I do look and go, nah, if you go, nah,
John Lewis kids never, and nothing I'm doing.
See?
I told you not to start this.
You got to be consistent, fifth, with this message.
It was not a big, it was a business situation anyway
that I was upset about.
And then it's like,
with Justin and them, I kind of liked them.
You know what I'm saying? So it's like,
I'm not going to mess with nobody's kids.
That's Yeo Yeo with the sloppy kid.
That's not 50.
Were you mad at Yeo Yeo when you did that?
Yeah, I was. But in the house.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, because I'm looking like, what happened?
I'm like, yo, boy,
you don't know,
my eyes would change too.
You did something
around my little one.
But I like that about Yeo Yeo.
Yeo Yeo reacts sometimes,
goes too far.
Nah, man, you can't slap
nobody's hand.
Yeo Yeo goes too far.
If I tell you the stuff
that Yeo Yeo called me
ready to do,
ready for war,
you'd be like,
Yeo Yeo, please no.
Yeo Yeo's that person.
But by the way,
you can do that
if you're willing to deal
with the consequences
of what comes with it.
Yeah, yeah. Do you like, I was saying, do you do that if you're willing to deal with the consequences of what comes with it. Yeah, yeah.
I was saying, do you like being the bad guy?
Do you still like being the villain?
I don't think you have a choice.
No, the reason is, I was talking to Rene the other day, right?
We were just talking about how a lot of people don't know what you do behind the scenes.
Right.
How you help people.
I mean, you didn't pay people's rent.
You didn't help people get out of jail.
You didn't support people's acting careers.
You didn't donate it to funds. You done You didn't support people's acting careers. You didn't donate it to funds.
You didn't do so much for people behind
the scenes, but they still paint you
as the bad guy. Yeah, because all they remember is the
argument. People take note of
the things that they're not set for,
so if they would have an issue with any
type of direct confrontation,
immediately that impression sets so
strong on them that they just focus on that.
Behind the scenes, it's a whole different ballgame.
I think a lot of that is the cancer in you, too.
I'm big on astrolytics. I'm a cancer.
I think cancer's got a big heart.
But we have that crab outside because it's the hard exterior.
You know, as soon as we get uncomfortable, we get quiet.
That's it.
Because it's easier for us to deal with whatever is going on internally.
But I get quiet.
So when you see me, when I'm the most uncomfortable, I'm not saying anything.
You know what I mean?
After I've assessed it and I know where I'm at,
and then we talking about it, it doesn't really mean as much to me anymore.
But that's dangerous, though, because you're processing it.
And once you process it and figure it out, oh, boy.
What do you do when you celebrate your wins?
Like you have
For Life
that just came out
and it debuted
amazing
For Life is dope
that's really dope
that's cool
you know
I had that win
two years ago
I've been working
on this one
for two years
but now everybody's
seen it
and you've seen
how well it's been received
right
but they're gonna see
all the other projects
that I had
that was on the line
come up now
because the success
of that just goes
oh
and it changes everyone's perspective like for Stars I got a first look deal so they had this that was on the line come up now because the success of that just goes, oh,
and it changes everyone's perspective.
Like for Stars,
I got a first look deal
so they had to pitch that
to them before I went to ABC.
And they passed on that.
Oh, so they sit.
So now they see that
and they're like,
who did that?
Who passed?
Right.
And now they,
you know,
so now they haven't passed since
that project got picked up
and that was like,
what,
like a year or so.
Why did you do that project? What made you really love that project? Because it's based on a true story. Yeah up and that was like a year or so. Why did you do that project?
What made you really love that project?
Because it's based on a true story. Yeah, and it's not like
one in a million. It's
one-on-one with Isaac Rice type
scenario, you know. So,
I was like, for real? I'm Googling it
at the same time while he was
talking to me because I didn't believe that it was
needed confirmation of
it being true.
I'm like, man, it really happened.
I was like, yo, I just started paying people.
He's from my hometown.
Moncks Corner, South Carolina. He went to the same high school as me. I know your alma mater.
His story
is that he was in jail.
He was sentenced for 70 years plus life.
The first person convicted
in New Jersey under the King Penn statute
was wrongfully convicted and spent about seven and a half years in jail
before becoming a prison rep, studying law,
and he represented other inmates in their cases
and was writing briefs for other lesser attorneys on the outside
on how to approach the cases.
And then uh created new
case law on some of those cases because he was defending people who were also uh under the kingpin
conviction and he worked on that until he got himself out of jail like it was crazy the the
district attorney the the police officer that was his arresting officer had progress from being a police officer to being the chief of police at that point.
And he broke down and Stan told the truth about what happened.
And the district attorney went on the run and killed himself.
How did you even learn about that story?
I know you got roots in South Carolina.
Yeah.
Aiken, South Carolina.
Okay.
Aiken, South Carolina. But. Akin, South Carolina.
But what's the thing about Isaac?
He came to me through the Fight Club, through the BX Fight Club, with Hovino.
Like, they wanted me to come to the Fight Club, but I couldn't because I had the license
in the state of Nevada because me and Floyd was talking about the TMT thing.
I heard Floyd on...
Yeah, I was about to say the same thing.
On T-Champs.
Yeah.
With Norrie, Salute to Norrie.
And Floyd was like, Man, that was my guy
He used to come to the crib
He used to
I used to have the chef
Cook for him
I show him mad love
He's like, I don't know
What happened
Nah, that's still my guy
You know what I'm saying
That's his house
That's his house
That's still my guy
He's still my guy
I tell you, look
He's
Look, he's used to people
Being codependent around him
Right?
So, he'll do things
That are extreme And look at you like,
and expect you to just accept it because he's Floyd Mayweather.
A lot of people around him are waiting for him to feel generous
and to just give him something.
If you look around, you don't see any friends
or anybody that's around him consistently
that have success on their own away from him.
Did you talk to Eminem about going back and forth
with Nick Cannon? What was that conversation like?
I was like, yo, ain't nothing there.
He'll get hype and go, what?
Like you said something like you're
challenging him in that way, because
he comes from that format, the battle format.
They actually put him in a space
where he's the most comfortable when they attack him.
He's giving me about six bars.
Yeah, he's a good girl.
Nick Cannon did that song,
Used to Look Up To You,
and he said that was about you.
Yeah, I know.
I don't know if you want that.
I don't know if you want that problem
rapping with Nick Cannon.
I would never respond to Nick Cannon.
Never.
Listen up.
Now, look, look.
The camera's on, right?
He's legendary corny.
He's been corny forever.
Like, forever. Like, from the very beginning. I thought at one point he was headed somewhere the camera's on right he's legendary corny he's been corny forever like forever
like from the very beginning
I thought
at one point
he was headed somewhere
that was like
in the Will Smith
Will Smith-ish
kinda cause it was
comedy stuff
like that
and then
it just
just never got
to his destination
like it just never
got cool
he's a good businessman
would you cast him
in a power book
anyone else
yeah if he did a good job
he did great in Drumline Drumline was dope he did good like I believed him in a power book? Yeah, if he did a good job. He did great in Drumline.
Drumline was dope.
He did good in that.
I believed him as a drummer.
See, the thing with Nick, Nick is a great businessman.
The only thing that makes him look corny is his rapping.
Yeah, I don't know why he's so passionate about it.
What the hell's going on?
Bro, look.
You suck, bro.
You suck, bro.
I'm going to just tell you the truth. There's never a moment where you said something and we was like, ooh, look. You suck, bro. You suck, bro. I'm going to just tell you the truth.

Salute to all my people.
Salute to my homegirl,
Queen Yannasta.
Dropping the clues bombs

lone wolf.
Hey, Queen Yannasta.
She texted me and she said,
one day I will have a man.
Oh, boy.
And she said,
she actually asked
Minister Farrakhan,
you know,
will she have one one day?
And he said to her,
you will have to have
someone sent from Allah.
Yeah,
slew to my guy, Ron, too.
Ron hit me and he said,
so do bottoms supposed
to receive or give gifts today?
I replied back to him, receive.
My goodness.
Duh.
Let's get to the rumors.
And by the way, my mom hit me this morning to let us know that she did used to get my brother presents on Valentine's Day as well.
Okay.
So she just wanted to let you know.
And she said you could get your son like some red boxers, little things like that that he could use.
Okay.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Drake.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So Quentin Miller, on the five-year anniversary of Drake's
If You're Reading This, It's Too Late album,
he reflected on the impact that album had on his life.
Here's what he said.
You know, a lot of people have been congratulating me
and sending me messages and s*** about
a five-year anniversary of If You're
Reading This and s***. It's pretty much taboo
for me to even talk about it, you know.
I pretty much try to act like it don't even
exist. The biggest project of my
entire career, right? Unfortunately,
you know, I don't have the good memories about it
that everybody has, you know. My good memories were
all murdered, you know what I'm saying?
Like, the day Neek Mandela,
y'all buying that bulls**t since he came out of jail.
Like, he's whatever.
The day he, you know, put my name out there,
you know, and it just blew up my whole spot.
That s**t just f**ked everything up for me, bro.
And he's asking that people take a chance on him now.
He said, everybody wants to kick me to the curb.
He said, just give me the opportunity, okay?
It was very stressful for him.
He said, now Meek and Drake are best friends.
So what was all that even for?
I can't lie.
I watched that video yesterday, and I must admit, it was a real tearjerker.
Yeah, I felt bad for him, man.
He was in that situation.
He got the bad.
He was minding his business.
They're cool now.
Meek.
He got beat up, allegedly.
This is all on Meek.
It's all bad, man.
To make that right.
You're talking about reform?
You got to reform that relationship with Quentin Mill.
I'm serious. They don't gotta be best friends.
He wasn't even doing nothing. He was minding
his business, doing his job.
Doing a great job at his job. Meek, you gotta
make that right. That young man got
thrown under the bus for no damn reason.
He got beat up. He lost a leg.
He lost a leg. That man went through a lot.
He didn't lose a leg because of that.
I was like, wait a minute. Nope, I'm putting it. But he didn't lose a leg because of that. I was like, wait a minute.
Nope, I'm putting it all in the same story.
I can't believe that.
He lost a leg because of this?
You know Drake bought him a leg?
No, he didn't.
Yes, he did.
Really?
Drake bought that leg for him.
Wow.
I mean, from what I was told.
I don't know if that's true.
I did.
Somebody did tell me that.
I'm not citing my sources, but somebody, a very reliable source,
told me that Drake actually bought him his leg.
So all I'm saying is, Meek, you got to do something to make it right.
Drake's a hell of a guy.
All right, now, WE tv has confirmed that there is going to be a reality show with Waka and Tammy.
What the flaka?
Listen to this.
I love everything about him.
Even when he gets on nerves.
That's not even funny.
Most people get married, they go on their honeymoon,
they come home to their new life.
For us, it's like a war zone.
The contractors are running out for my money.
That's our money.
Get mad, Timmy.
It's your fault.
I don't mind being a house husband.
She could have had an R&B career, but she been behind me.
Studio time can crush artists' budgets.
I'm not worried about this.
I'm not Wells Fargo.
You don't love me no more.
You hate being wrong.
We love each other, but we definitely argue a lot.
All right, so make sure y'all check that out.
That is coming to WE tv if you want to see Waka and Tammy.
They were on Love & Hip Hop, but now they got their own show.
So it premieres March 12th.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Report.
And for everybody that is trying to text me today, I left my phone at home.
I apologize.
I know everybody, my mom was just hitting me today, I left my phone at home. I apologize.
I know everybody.
My mom was just hitting me like, why didn't you respond?
So if you are texting me, sorry.
Yeah, it's the phone sitting right by you.
I know, but this is my other phone.
Nobody has this number.
So I left my main phone at home.
I have this phone for like, but I don't have anyone's number. That's a trap phone, right.
And no one has it, so no one can text me on it.
All right.
Well, Revolt, we'll see you guys on Monday.

Cause this is a Valentine's Day mix
And I had everybody Participate on Twitter That's Twitter to tweet out their favorite Valentine's Day songs.
So I want to see how many of those made it into the mix.
I'm about to do the mix now.
It's Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
It's Black History Month.
So what are we doing today?
Listen, today's Black History Month moment on this Valentine's Day is going to Darius Lovehall.
You got to know who Darius Lovehall is, right?
Especially if you black of a certain age.
Darius Lovehall was a character played by Lorenz Tate in my wife's second favorite movie of all time, Love Jones.
Let me tell you something.
There is a poem called Brother to the Night that all you brothers should learn.
And when you drunk or high tonight on Valentine's Day, at some point, you should repeat it to your significant other.
If you don't know the words, let's start to learn them right now.
This is a Black History Month moment.
Say, baby, can I be your slave?
I've got to admit, girl, you're the shitshit, girl
And I'm digging you like a grave
Now, do they call you daughter to the spinning pulsar?
Or maybe queen of ten thousand moons?
Sister to the distant yet rising star Is your name Yimmy Yaw?
Oh, hell no, it's got to be Oshun
Is that a smile me put on your face, child?
Wide as a field of jasmine and glow.
Talk that talk, honey.
Walk that walk, money.
High on legs, I spanked your whole throat.
Who am I?
It's not important.
But they call me brother to the night.
And right now
I'm the blues in your left thigh
Trying to become the funk in your right
Who am I?
I'll be whoever you say
But right now I'm the sight-raped hunter
Blindly pursuing you as my prey
And I just want to give you injections of sublime erections But right now I'm gonna sight-rape Donna blindly pursuing you as my prey
And I just want to give you injections of sublime erections and get you to dance to my rhythm
Make you dream archetypes of black angels in flight upon wings
distorted contorted metaphoric position
Yo, man, I ain't worried about who.
It's you who I want to step to my scene.
Because rather than deal with the fallacy of this dry ass reality,
I'd rather dance and romance your sweet ass in a wet drain.
Who am I?
Well they all call me brother to the night.
And right now, I'm the blues in your left thigh.
Trying to become the funk in your right.
Is that all right?
That was a Black History Month moment brought to you by The Breakfast Club.
All right.
Well, that was a Black History Month moment.
That's right, man.
Brother to the night.
Make sure you learn that poem.
And at some time tonight,
when you're feeling whatever vibe you're on,
whether you're drunk,
whether you're going off some cushions or something,
just make sure you repeat that to her
in some way, shape, or form.
Even if you just repeat the first two lines.
Hey, baby, can I be your slave?
And then the digging, like,
the grave part.
Clearly, I don't know the words. I can tell.
Alright. When we come back, positive notice
to Breakfast Club. Good morning.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club.
Now, um,
happy Valentine's Day to everybody out there.
Of course, my wife, my mom, my mother-in-law, my daughters, Madison, Brooklyn, London, and my young kings as well.
RZA, JZA, Mo Dirty Bastard, Hugh God, Coach Fink, all of the ASAP mob.
Shout out to y'all.
I got a lot of them.
But happy Valentine's Day to my family, man.
Yes, Valentine's Day.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I am really looking forward to Valentine's Day.
Only because, you know, when you're running around as a parent, you know,
and running around as a father and in this business, like the kids are always home.
So, you know, everything is about parenting, parenting, parenting, parenting,
which is great.
But this weekend is about us, me and the wife, you know?
So that's a beautiful thing.
All right.
And shout out to everybody going to All-Star Weekend.
Yep, I'm heading out of here now.
This weekend, too.
Jennifer Hudson's doing a tribute, this All-Star, to Kobe Bryant as well.
So I look forward to hearing that.
All right.
Well, Charlamagne, leave us on a positive note.
Listen, man, it's Valentine's Day.
The only thing I can tell you, man, is Valentine's Day.
But then you got a whole weekend, and it's a holiday weekend.
So I just want to tell you, on this Valentine's weekend,
on this Valentine's Day,
it's the only day you want to feel the most love, okay?
So embrace all the good times with your lover,
whoever that may be, unless it's somebody else's man.
Breakfast club, bitches!
You all finished or y'all done?
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
