Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama
who refused to give up her seat on the city bus

Everybody come to the breakfast club.
I call this 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 You're alive. You're alive. 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 of rubbing you the wrong way.
The Breakfast Club.
Made for everybody.
Good morning, Angela Yee.
She is on vacation.
Charlamagne Tha God.
Peace to the planet.
It's Friday.
What up, Toronto?
Six, six, six, six, six, six, six, six, six, six. What's happening?
We here.
We made it.
That's right.
It's a Friday.
The end of the week.
I didn't know how October was going to show out.
Didn't know how October was going to show out. Didn't know how October was going to show up.
But it has.
Because the President Donald
Trump and his wife Melania Trump allegedly
have caught an arona.
That's right. Allegedly.
Have coronavirus, yes.
We'll talk about that more on the front page.
But yeah, they have coronavirus.
So, um...
I got a few thoughts. And one of those thoughts is the reason I'm saying allegedly.
Keep in mind, I'm a conspiracy
theorist raised on a dirt road
in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.
I don't believe much until I see it
for myself firsthand.
That's not true.
Donald Trump would have to...
You didn't see Bigfoot, you believe in Bigfoot.
You didn't see aliens and you believe in aliens.
First of all, I have seen aliens.
I've been visited by extraterrestrials a number of times.
First of all, I've been visited by extraterrestrials a number of times.
I've been abducted.
I've woken up with cuts on both legs in the same places.
I've witnessed flying saucers for myself.
Sasquatch is not hard to believe.
It's just a primate in the woods, sir.
Okay. Just like you got big primates in the jungle. It's just a primate in the woods sir Okay just like you got big primates in the jungle
It's just a primate in the woods that's all
I definitely believe a Sasquatch existed
At some point
Maybe not so much now but at some point
Any other questions
No no no no no other questions
Everything you just named is way more believable than
Donald Trump
Catching a Corona
But we'll discuss.
All right.
Well, Reverend Al Sharpton will be joining us this morning.
Reverend Al, the good Reverend Al.
He's got a new book out called Rise Up, A Country at a Crossroads.
That's right.
So we'll kick it with Reverend Al Sharpton.
And let's get the show cracking.
Front page news, like Charlemagne said, the president and his wife allegedly has coronavirus.
We'll talk about it when we come back. So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was new music. Megan Thee Stallion
featuring Young Thug. It's called Don't Stop. New music. All right. Morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
Now, in NBA, congratulations to Doc Rivers.
You know he just left Los Angeles Clippers,
but now it seems like he's agreeing to be the next head coach for the Philadelphia 76ers.
That's a great job.
I'm happy to see that.
Mediocre white coaches get jobs in the NBA quite easily all the time.
It's good to see Doc Rivers, an above mediocre coach, get a job.
So congratulations to him.
Also tonight at 9 o'clock,
the Lakers take on the Heat.
That will be game two of the finals.
Of course, the Lakers lead 1-0.
That's at 9 p.m. Eastern time.
Did I read somewhere
that the NBA Finals game one
was the lowest NBA Finals
in NBA history?
Is that true?
Or was that just somebody
making something up
to throw some smut
on LeBron James' name?
I read that somewhere.
I don't know.
Well, your president, Donald Trump, looks like he has coronavirus.
It seems like him and his wife will be quarantining because they got coronavirus from an aide.
I don't know if you remember this a couple of months ago.
But he talked about coronavirus and how he thought it was, I guess, a hoax.
Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus.
You know that, right?
Coronavirus.
And this is their new hoax.
Yeah, this is their new hoax, but now he got it.
So what do you think, Charlamagne? I know you got an idea about this.
What does Charlamagne think?
What does Lenard think?
I have a few thoughts.
First of all, come through October.
Drop on the clues bomb for October, okay?
I knew the season finale of 2020 was going to be good.
I knew October was sitting back watching like,
how can I make a splash in 2020?
These other months been showing out.
Let me see what I can do.
So this is a good little move for October, right?
Second, I'm not about to be happy that Trump and Melania got Corona.
I will never celebrate something happening to a person that I don't want to happen to me in my third.
The conspiracy theorist in me simply doesn't believe it.
All right. Donald Trump would have to pass away from COVID in order for me to believe he's got it.
I just feel like this is his way of changing the headlines from his terrible debate showing gives him 14 days to not campaign.
Nice excuse to not be in the press keeps the bad headlines down.
And, you know, this is a good one. Trump and Melania catch the Rona.
Trump allegedly Trump allegedly pay attention, takes a coronavirus vaccine on national TV.
He's all of a sudden, well, gives the allusion to the American public that
the vaccine is safe. He's one of the first
to try it. Millions of people
line up to take the vaccine. That's what
I think.
I literally just woke up and
that was the first thought that came to my head.
All right. Well, Melania Trump,
she says, as too many Americans have done
this year, POTUS and I are
quarantining at home after testing positive for COVID-19.
We are feeling good.
I have postponed all upcoming engagements.
Please be sure you are staying safe, and we will get through this together.
And if they really do have it, they earned it
because they weren't out there wearing masks.
They weren't out there social distancing.
You know, they out there throwing rallies.
They shaking hands.
They kissing babies.
They're doing everything
that the experts tell us
not to do. So if they do have it,
they earned it. But Donald Trump is 74
years old and Melania
is 50. That's all?
What do you think he was? I thought he was late 70s.
Either way, I don't believe it. I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't believe it. Like I said, Trump would have to pass away
from COVID in order for me to believe it. I just really
feel like this is his way of changing
the headlines from that terrible debate showing
R. It's his way of getting everybody
to line up for the vaccine.
Because, you know, now he can
allegedly take a coronavirus vaccine on national
TV, make a big show about it.
All of a sudden he's well.
Gives the illusion to the American public that this vaccine
is safe and he's one of the first to try it, so it's okay
for you to get next thing you know millions of Americans are lining up to get that goddamn COVID-19 vaccine.
Early.
All right, well, Donald Trump also was on Hannity and condemned white supremacists.
I have to say, I've said it many times, and let me be clear again, I condemn the KKK.
I condemn all white supremacists.
I condemn the Proud Boys.
I don't know much about the Proud Boys, almost nothing, but I condemn that.
But he should condemn also Antifa.
Antifa is a horrible group of people.
They kill people.
It doesn't really matter now.
You know what I mean?
You got to do it when it counts.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like if you ever got caught cheating and your woman confronts you and she already knows,
but you lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
And then when you finally find out everybody knows you're cheating,
you're like, look, I got a confession to make.
I got caught.
It was me.
Too late.
All right.
Well, that is your front page news.

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.

Hello, who's this?
Hey, it's Tisha from Texas.
Hey, Tisha from Texas.
T-F-T.
Okay, I don't believe Donald Trump has the coronavirus.
Me neither.
I do not believe that.
I believe that he's trying to, A, get out of that other debate that he had.
I just think he's trying to defer everything that we're thinking right now
and those tapes that came out about Melania yesterday.
It's a whole big thing that nobody's liking them even more now.
So, oh, poor me, I have coronavirus.
And I was today
years old when I found out that
Angie Stone sings the
theme to Girlfriend. Come on now.

30 days. You posting those things like this.

Bobby, what's up?
What's happening?
What's up with your chest, bro?
Nothing much, fellas.
But I want to get off my chest that I feel like we need to be more empowered to take our homeboys' keys.
When we've been drinking, man, Wednesday night night we was watching the Lakers game and everybody was
drinking was having a great time building and uh we left my homeboy he was behind me he took it
upon himself to go around me ended up crashing into a ditch I had to pull him out of the car
bro he got like four broken ribs a punctured lung i could have lost my man at night all because
i don't know if it's ego or pride but we don't take it that next level to say no you need to
stay down like you too drunk you know what i'm saying yep so it's wild it's wild to me
i agree with you and it's wild to me that people still drink and drive in 2020
with uber and lyft and everything else like you should know when you've had too much to drink.
Absolutely. And like you said, it's too much
pride. Sometimes you gotta be like, nah, B, you drunk.
Nah, nah. Because everybody gonna be like, nah, I'm good.
Nah, give me your keys for a second, bro.
I told him that. I said, yo,
you know you can stay here. We at my
brother's house. We all brothers. You know, we friends,
but we brothers. I'm like, you know you can stay here.
He's like, I'm good. And we've done it a thousand times
before, but we could have lost him at night, man,
off of some silly foolishness.
Yeah.
And you'd have felt so bad
because you know that man was drunk when he left the house.
There's one thing when somebody leaves and they look,
yeah, I'm good, and they look pretty all right,
but when you know somebody's drunk and you let them go anyway,
Lord have mercy, you'd have been kicking your ass
for the rest of your life.
Absolutely.
True story.
True story, man. I'm glad he's not dead, man, but next time, you know have been kicking your ass for the rest of your life. Absolutely. True story. True story, man.

Hello, who's this?
Hey, get it off your chest.
I just wanted to agree with Charlamagne about Donald Trump.
That's all.
Oh, you don't think he got coronavirus.
You think he's using this as a ploy to get the American people to feel bad for him?
Absolutely do.
Don't feel bad.
Yeah, I think it's all a conspiracy theory.
I think that he's using this to take away headlines from all the bad press he got.
Give them 14 days to not campaign.
You know, nice excuse to not be in the press.
And I honestly think that he's going to take a coronavirus vaccine on national TV all of a sudden to be well
and give the illusion to the American people that this vaccine that they've rushed out is safe.
I agree.
I absolutely agree.
Okay.
Well, thank you, Mama.
Hello, who's this?
Ariana.
Hey, Ariana.
Hey, Ariana.
Hey, y'all.
Hey, y'all, what's happening?
Today is my 23rd birthday.
Happy birthday.
Michael Jordan year.
That's right.
You know who I'm joining?
Yes.
Okay, just making sure.
You're 23.
You can't tell nowadays.
All right.
Yes, 23.
What you got planned?
I would like, oh, well, I'm going to go to the beach.
I'm going to go out to eat at this seafood place tonight.
Okay. All that. I go to the beach. I'm going to go out to eat at this seafood place tonight. Okay.
All that.
I got to take pictures.
Follow me on Instagram at Ariana Dahlia on music because I'm an up and coming artist.
I'm a rocker.
You know, rocker.
Okay.
Let me hear something for your 23rd.
Let me see if I can get you on the right path for your new year.
Okay.
Hit me up.
You know that I don't freaking miss you.
D-Hydra, you're sorry.
I can't fix that issue.
And got no time for all that DM, M-I-D-M.
They can either answer questions.
No, girl, I don't ever see him.
And check your n***a.
Not at me with this s***.
Because I don't f*** with fake-ass ballers.
Got like two or three gifs.
Your landlord already called you.
Got on waiting for rent.
But yet you come in there.
Me over, Brian, give you a cent.
It's crazy.
It don't faze me.
No, these chicks is dumb. You had his baby. He got lazy. Now you stuck with a bum.
Alright, alright, alright.
What do you think, Sharla? You know, I think that you
should have some other plans lined up for your life.
Just happy birthday. Just happy birthday. Be positive.
It's a birthday. Is there anything else you want
to do in life other than rap? Oh, boy.
I'm going to be a rapper, point
link, so. That's it? Nothing else?
Just putting all your eggs in that one wrap basket, huh?
Well, you have a great birthday, man.
You just enjoy that birthday.
Don't worry about anything else tonight.
I'm going to be on the Ariana Danielle music for more.
Just think that I just want you to know this is your Jordan year.
I want you to think about the first time Jordan won a championship,
and he went up in the air, and he had the ball in his right hand,
but then at the last minute, he switched it to his left hand, and that's when he made the shot. If he'd he had the ball in his right hand, but then at the last minute he switched it to his left hand
and that's when he made the shot.
If he'd have kept the ball in his right hand,
he might not have made that shot and won that championship.
So just think about that in your life, in your rap career, okay?
You might just want to switch hands midair.
That's all.
That's it.
Why?
Okay, well, thank you for your response anyway.
And you keep working on it.
And you enjoy Long John Silver tonight, okay?
She didn't say
Long John Silver, you ass.
She said she's going
to get some seafood.
Yeah, she did.
No, she didn't say
Long John Silver.
She's going to a nice,
fancy restaurant.
Don't let her
hit you like that.
She didn't say
no damn Long John Silver.
Try Long John Silver.
She said Red Lobster.
Stop it.
Get it off your chest.
Try Red Lobster.
Nothing.
I like the buskets.
They good.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time.
Now, we got rumors on the way.
We'll tell you about Dr. Dre.
He did all right in court yesterday.
We'll tell you all about it.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Who my husband?
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Now, Dr. Dre just won a battle in court.
The judge in their divorce case just rejected his wife's Nicole request for $1.5 million
to pay for various expenses, including security and other costs.
And the judge also rejected her request to accelerate her claim that Dre should pay $5 million for her lawyer fees and costs.
Look at God. Look at God.
I mean, there's no way, I don't care how rich you are, what your lifestyle is, was,
there's just no way to justify $1.5 million a month and whatever it is,
especially when you look at the breakdown.
Is that the one that we saw that had the breakdown for like the $100,000 in charity
and $900,000 in entertainment.
Come on, man.
It's a million dollars right there. Yeah, so
she's also, Nicole, which is Dr. Dre's
wife, of course, she said that she needs
money for security because she's been receiving
death threats. They said the money would also
go up for expenses. They said people
are commenting under her post
and under post saying if she dies, she dies.
And for a small fee, she can disappear.
So she is very concerned
and she wants extra security.
Well, the block button is free.
You know what I'm saying?
I think I don't take any threat lightly,
but that's just social media.
Seriously, we have to start,
you know, like I said,
take every threat seriously,
but that is just social media.
That's what they do on social media.
I've been getting death threats
for a decade now, literally. seriously, but that is just social media. That's what they do on social media. I've been getting death threats for
a decade now.
Literally. Yeah, I guess
you're right. Also, Amazon,
if you're working for Amazon, you might have to be
extra, extra safe. Now, Amazon
is dropping some alarming stats. They're saying
that nearly
20,000 people
they believe caught COVID-19
working at Amazon.
They said March 1st to September 19th, 19,816 employees were either presumed or confirmed to have contracted the coronavirus.
That's out of the roughly 1.37 million people that work at Amazon and Whole Foods.
Is this a rumor or is this a true story?
True story.
Because I think sometimes I can't tell because this is a rumor report.
So it's supposed to be rumors.
Right, it's supposed to be rumors, but this is coming straight from TMZ,
and TMZ is saying that Amazon workers have more than 19,000 cases of coronavirus.
Okay.
That's why you got to wash your hands when you get your Amazon packages.
That's exactly what I thought about when I heard this thing.
I was like, well, you definitely got to wash your hands.
And lastly, shout out to
Consequence, right? Did you know
Consequence was dealing with lupus?
I didn't know until he posted it on Instagram the other day.
Yeah, he got diabetes.
So Consequence, if you don't know Consequence, of course,
he's an artist, used to be on Love & Hip Hop. He's a writer
for Kanye West. He posted a picture
of himself, his son, and
his, I don't know if that's his wife
or his girlfriend, at his son's birthday party. He was 113 pounds and people were body shaming him.
So he left this message. He said, I was body shamed when I posted this picture on the 17th
of August. I was 113 pounds and some ass peeps said I looked like an old junkie. He says lupus
and diabetes have been kicking my ass for seven
months straight. But oddly enough, I was getting better as of two weeks before I was 105 pounds
and my sugar was in the 500s from being on steroids. I was being determined to wish my
son a happy birthday. So I made it out however I looked. And he talks about it. He said he thought
lupus was a predominantly affected by black women, but he said the disease
knocked him on his ass, and now he's letting men know
that they should be aware, too.
He said this is the same disease
that killed Phife Dawg,
and he said somebody else, too.
I can't find it, but he said it's very, very
serious, and he says he has to
take care of his body.
Yeah, Consequence, my man. I remember that picture.
I honestly just thought he was newly vegan, you know.
But I send nothing but positive energy, love, and light to Consequence
because that's my man.
He's a good brother, and I wish him a speedy recovery.
I want him to be here, you know, to watch his son grow and evolve.
His son gets busy, too.
Yeah, his son raps.
His son gets busy.
Yeah, Con sends me all the time.
But he posted something new
about a couple of days ago and he gained a lot
more weight. He's looking way more healthier.
So I guess he's battling it the right way
and he's doing way, way better. So shout out to Consequence.
I think he got a project dropping too.
It's called
Things Are Different Now.
I think. Unless he's just using that as a hashtag
to talk about how this is
the second act of his life. But I think, I'm pretty
sure he got a project, Rob. Okay.
Alright, well that is your
rumor report. Now, when
we come back, we got front page news.
We'll tell you about Donald Trump. He has the coronavirus.
Also,
two more black individuals
beaten by the police. We'll tell you all about it.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never by the police. We'll tell you all about it. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Your mornings will never be the same.
The Travis Scott meal just dropped at McDonald's,
featuring the juicy quarter pounder burger with lettuce, pickles, onions,
ketchup, mustard, and bacon, all with medium fries and a drink for just six bucks.
Don't forget the barbecue sauce.
Price and participations may vary.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy,
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the
Breakfast Club. It's been from Front Page
News.
Now, congratulations to Doc
Rivers. Now, Doc Rivers agreed
to a five-year deal with the 76ers
after leaving the Clippers
just a day ago. So, congratulations to him.
He got a new job right away.
That's good because all those mediocre white coaches always get jobs right away.
And they go from team to team like Mike D'Antoni.
So I'm glad Doc Rivers got another gig that fast.
All right.
And also in the NBA, of course, game two is tonight.
The Lakers versus the Heat.
Lakers lead that series 1-0.
Game two is tonight at 9 p.m.
And game three.
Street saying we're sitting courtside game three, right?
That's right.
Game three, we are sitting courtside.
It's the virtual seat.
So we'll be at Sunday's game courtside, which is going to be pretty much.
How does that work?
Shout to Miami, 103.5 to beat in Miami.
What do you mean, how does that work?
You don't know?
I can't sit through no whole game on no Zoom now.
Well, you have it up on your Zoom, and then you have it up on your TV.
So, you know, you can watch on both.
That's what I'm going to do.
Okay. But I don't want to sit next to you.
I wonder if they're going to put me next to you because I don't want to sit next to you.
I'm sure they will.
I'm going to do like this.
See, what's wrong?
I'm going to do this to your ear.
On TV, I can't wait.
Kiss cam!
What's wrong with you?
Virtual kiss cam.
Now, Donald Trump and his wife, Melania, looks like allegedly they have COVID-19, coronavirus.
You said you don't believe it? Why not?
I don't believe it.
I don't know.
Donald Trump would have to die from complications of COVID in order for me to believe he had it.
God forbid he passes from COVID, though, because I don't wish death on anyone.
And I'm not about to be happy that Trump and Melania got corona.
I would never celebrate something happening to a person
that I don't want to happen to me and mine.
But I don't believe he has it.
Well, she said there's too many Americans that have done this year.
POTUS and I are quarantining at home after testing positive for COVID-19.
We are feeling good.
I have postponed all upcoming engagements.
Please be sure you're staying safe
and we will all get through this together.
I just feel like this is his way
of changing the headlines
from his terrible debate showing
gives him 14 days to not campaign.
Nice excuse to not be in the press.
They probably won't do the next debate.
Keeps the bad headlines down.
And, you know, I think that
they're going to allegedly take a coronavirus vaccine,
one of them value menu vaccines that they rushing out.
They're going to take one of them vaccines on national TV
and all of a sudden get better.
And it'll give the illusion to the American public that the vaccine is safe.
He'll look like a hero because he's one of the first to try it.
Millions of lineups to take the vaccine.
And boom, microchips for all of y'all.
Right in time for goddamn Thanksgiving.
My goodness.
Well, this is what he said when he talked about it before.
He said coronavirus was a hoax.
Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus.
You know that, man.
Coronavirus.
And this is their new hoax.
Yeah, so I guess it's not a hoax if you got it.
Now, he also condemned white supremacy on Hannity as well.
Listen to this.
I have to say, I've said it many times,
and let me be clear again, I condemn the KKK.
I condemn all white supremacists.
I condemn the Proud Boys.
I don't know much about the Proud Boys, almost nothing,
but I condemn that. But he. I don't know much about the Proud Boys, almost nothing, but I condemn that.
But he should condemn also Antifa.
Antifa is a horrible group of people.
They kill people.
See, now his base can't even be mad at him for condemning white supremacy because he can say he's sick.
He can say he's sick, he's running a fever, wasn't feeling well, wasn't saying anything.
He didn't really mean to condemn it.
He didn't know what he was saying.
It's all a great plot
plan and ploy
and a hoax. I don't believe it.
And also, we have to talk
about Ronald Green. Now, Ronald Green
is a black person. He's a black man from Louisiana.
They said he died from
injuries from
a car crash.
That was the reports.
Well, it seems like new audio shows that he didn't die from a car crash. That was the reports. Well, it seems like new audio shows
that he didn't die from a car crash
and that cops beat him to death.
You mean police lied about something?
Really? Police?
Oh.
You got the audio?
You don't have to play it.
Oh, my God.
I'm not looking. All right, well, let me read it to you because I know it's kind of hard to understand.
Now, that was Officer Hollingsworth.
Why are you doing this?
Why are we traumatizing people this morning?
Because people need to know that police lie and that people lie.
We need to know the truth.
We know that.
We are clear.
White people may not know.
Ever-living F out of him.
Choked him and everything else.
Trying to get him under control.
We finally got him in handcuffs.
When a third man got there and the son of a itch was still fighting,
they were still wrestling with him, trying to hold him down.
He was spitting blood everywhere.
Then all of a sudden sudden he just went limp.
But they said he died from
his, you know,
injuries from his car crash.
Now where's this war on cops y'all
keep talking about? Because every day that we come on
this radio for years now, all we're
telling you is stories about how cops
are abusing their power against civilians
and cops are doing things like how
they did to Ronald Green. I saw the other
young lady that they had handcuffed
upside down in the backseat of the car yesterday
and she started
screaming about not wanting to be black
and calling the officer master and all kinds of stuff.
What was her name? Are you talking about Shanti Kelly?
The young lady that was hog tied, you mean?
Shanti Kelly, yes.
So where's this war on cops y'all keep talking about?
Because I don't see it.
I see a war on civilians from cops,
but I don't see no war on cops happening.
Yeah.
It's very few and far between when we come in here
and report a story about a police officer, you know,
being just randomly attacked by a civilian.
The last one was the two officers in L.A.
Yes.
So it's just like, I don't know this war on cops y'all speak of,
but I definitely see the cops abusing their power
against black people in this country every goddamn day.
Now, the officer who spoke out is now dead from a single car accident.
People believe it was most likely a suicide after this came out.
Oh, so he couldn't live with himself.
Right, that's what they believe.
So we'll say allegedly.
And that is your front page news.
All right. On a Friday, bro. And that is your front page news. Alright.
On a Friday, bro.
Yeah, I know. I know. On a Friday.
I know. I know. Alright. Well, when we
come back, Reverend Al Sharpton
will be joining us. We're going to kick it with
Reverend Al. Reverend Al has a new
book out called Rise Up, A Country at
a Crossroads. And we're going to
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,
Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest on the line.
Yes, indeed.
Reverend Al Sharpton, welcome. Good morning, Reverend Al.
Good morning, good morning.
Good to be with y'all.
You know, the Rev just put out a new book called Rise Up, Confronting a Country at a Crossroads.
After watching that presidential debate last night, or as I like to call it, the presidential versus battle,
it was a stand-up comedy special, we are definitely at a crossroads.
What do those crossroads look like to you, Reverend?
Well, I mean, if you look at the fact that for the last
half century, we were fighting, struggling, trying to deal with issues like criminal justice,
like voting rights, like reparations, and in other silos of society, gender equality,
LGBTQ rights, everybody fighting in whatever it is that they had to deal with and making some incremental steps toward a more sound way of dealing with things.
And then all of a sudden you get the backlash.
After eight years of a black president, Donald Trump rises up with the birther movement, becomes president of the United States and tries to undo all of that.
Tries to stop affordable care. He tries to stop voter participation by ending all the lawsuits
the Justice Department had about voter suppression methods like Vote ID. He tried to stop affirmative
action. He's stacking the courts. So America's at a crossroad and we've got to decide
whether we're going to rise up and fight back and continue the path that could lead us into
empowerment or whether we're going to roll over and let them just go down this other path. This
is a time in the age of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, all of these cases we're fighting. It
couldn't be more in your face than right now,
whether you're going to rise up or whether you're just going to roll over.
What did you think of the debate the other night? What were your thoughts on both Joe
Biden and Donald Trump? Did you think it was anything to benefit the people?
I think that it was a debacle, not a debate. Clearly, Donald Trump came in unprepared to
really talk about anything. I think Biden wins by default,
but I think he could have been stronger on the crime bill.
I marched him in 94 to crime bill.
He has now said that it was unintended consequences
and that he had overshot the runway.
I think he's a better choice than Trump,
but that does not mean he shouldn't be held accountable.
And I think he could have answered that stronger
by saying, yes, I was
wrong in 94 to
go as far as I did, but you support the
crime bill now, Mr. Trump. You
support stopping frisk now.
I agree with you on the Joe
Biden stuff, but it's interesting, though.
Joe Biden has had years to
apologize for that 94 crime bill. He would have
just apologized for that 94 crime bill years ago,
there wouldn't be a vulnerable spot for Trump to use against him now.
Exactly right.
The thing I think people don't know, and I write a lot about it in this book,
is that people have to know where we are is based on where we've been.
The struggle in the Democratic Party always,
those of us that was trying to pull them to what they call the left, particularly on black issues, were always blocked by those that were more centrist, including black elected officials.
When I ran for president, a lot of them didn't support me.
When Reverend Jackson ran, they didn't support.
In fact, they created a lot of these guys in the center to try and neutralize us.
You said in Rise Up that the Democratic Party has failed the black community.
So how do you convince brothers and sisters that this election, this will be the moment that Democrats finally show up for us?
I think that the way that you've got to convince them is you've got to say that I'm not selling you a bill of goods, that this is some panacea, but that we're going to have to hold them accountable and we're going to put people in
there with them that we're going to hold accountable. So yeah, Joe Biden knows that we'll go after him
and Kamala Harris knows that we're expecting her to also deal in a way that is accountable. So I saw the planning points.
I lift every voice.
Okay, but where are we going with other issues and hold you to that?
I was still talking to Reverend Al Sharpton.
Now, how do we get black people excited to vote?
We've seen what happened last year with so many people didn't come out.
But then we also see what happened when Barack was running and we all came out.
How do we get people excited to come out and vote this year?
Well, when you look at the fact that we are about to see somebody put on the Supreme Court that is written in judicial and some of their legal writings, they want to end the Affordable Care Act.
If you look, 30 million people lose preexisting conditions.
That's something to get excited about because we're talking about our loved ones.
When we look at the fact that they are not going to deal with any of the police cases,
they have said they're on the side of law and order.
Trump said it the other night.
They're on the side of law enforcement.
So how do we stand up as we all have for George Floyd, for Breonna Taylor, for Ahmaud Arbery,
and not excited about making sure we get a Justice Department that will be coming in?
I think that we are looking for excitement from the wrong places.
It's not about the politicians.
It's about the policy.
And if we deal with policy, then I think that we have our self-interest at hand.
Why is Joe Biden such a terrible candidate?
Like, he's just not good at this.
Why?
I think he's a regular Joe, no pun intended.
And I think that he's a guy that his political acumen is not based on mass charisma.
It's based on he is a guy that knows how to get in the room
and make things happen. We just need to make sure that he's going to make them happen for us.
True indeed. What do you say to people who say we shouldn't critique Joe Biden right now? Like,
we have to support him because it feels like they're telling us to just shut up and vote,
like they tell athletes to shut up and dribble.
No, I think that we've got to critique him. I think we've got to critique him and vote. I think that many of us would probably vote more if we would let the critique go down and say,
OK, you hear me, I'm going to do this, but I want you to know what my apprehension is. I don't think
we should tell people don't critique him because I critique President Obama. And as you know,
I had access to Obama. Me and Obama worked together. But I would question him. We'd get in the room and debate things out. I don't want anybody telling
me to help them, and I can't critique them. We are not looking for people to be our rulers.
We're looking for people to be our way to address our situation. And I'm not even saying you're
going to do everything I like. I might want ten things and get seven,
but I got to know I can get those seven.
Alright, we got more with Reverend Al when we come back.
Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Good morning, everybody. It's DJ,
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne
the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking
in with Reverend Al. Charlamagne?
You named the book Rise Up.
What's the best way for folks to rise
up during these times?
Is it always through peaceful protest? Do you think people that are You named the book Rise Up. What's the best way for folks to rise up during these times?
Is it always through peaceful protest?
Do you think people that are about some more type of action that's a little more aggressive,
is that the best way to rise up?
What's the best way?
I talk about it in the book.
I mean, first of all, rise up.
Everybody needs to rise up wherever they can.
It could be in your house, making sure everybody's registered to vote.
It could be you going to town hall meetings. I give a whole chapter on these are various ways you can rise up. I come out of the nonviolent peaceful movement. Others come out of self-defense.
I don't think our problem is each other. Our problem is who we're fighting. And I talk about
that in the book, that these purists that act like if you don't do
it my way, then you're wrong. As long as you're doing something that will lead to the empowerment
and uplifting of our people, then you do you, I do me. There are different lanes on the highway.
We don't all ride the same lane as long as we go into the same place. You know, you were alive
doing the civil rights there, Reverend Shau,
Reverend Al, even though you were a young man.
Do you feel that same kind of shift now?
Did it feel like the kind of crossroads we're at now back then?
There's nothing new.
There was the same thing where the younger folk were questioning the old God.
Don't forget the freedom riders that broke up segregation in the South,
riding the bus that got John Lewis in there.
Martin Luther King was not in charge of freedom riders.
He never got on a bus.
Martin Luther King was with a structured organization,
Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
There was NACP.
There were organic movements in Mississippi,
the 64 Freedom Summer.
So all these people that are talking now like this is new.
Oh, you got young folks doing this.
You got whites doing this.
You got the civil rights organizations doing that.
Are people that don't know the history.
They're too lazy to do the research.
I've seen all this before.
You got to remember, Charlemagne, the God.
We had Malcolm and Martin at the same time who had different tactics.
At the same time, we had Martin Luther King in the
South, we had Malcolm up North, we had
Adam Clay Powell in Congress, we had Fannie Lou
Hame in Mississippi, we had
Thurgood Marshall in the courts, all at the
same time. How do we get to
the 21st century with
social media and we can only have
one Negro talk at a time?
We've never been in that situation.
So why are we letting people do that now?
So if people want to do this, fine.
If I want to bring 150,000 people to Washington nonviolently to stand up on legislation, fine.
If somebody else want to do something else, fine.
Why do we have to get in each other's way when all of us are in the same situation?
That's real.
What do you say to these folks, man, who say things like,
hey, don't let your president get your ass kicked.
We are not our ancestors.
How does that make you feel when they say we are not our
ancestors? Well,
we're here because of our ancestors.
Why, again, do you have
to bite on your elders
or your ancestors to
make your point? No other race
does that. Every race extols their ancestors
and talk about their tradition,
their holidays,
and everything they do is erected around
they're the continuation of something.
We have been taught not to continue something,
to condemn our elders.
And you know where that comes from?
Slavery.
The first thing they did to make sure
they can enslave you is break the family up. So you don't know your daddy, you don't know your mama, they were sold to different states, because if they can break up that connection, they can then name you after them, impose their values on them. We have got to get out of the slave mentality of fighting the generations ahead of us,
but learning from them, improving on what they did, having our family debates and move on.
We cannot have this where we don't put the family back together.
That's what led to slavery.
Right.
I think they discredited John Lewis and MLK Jr., other peaceful people because they were nonviolent.
But they acted like it wasn't other folks out there who would bust your ass back then.
That was a debate then.
That's why I said we had Malcolm and Dr. King at the same time.
And they found a way to communicate and get together.
We had the Panthers and John Lewis and Jesse Jackson at the same time.
Stokely Carmichael.
Yeah, Huey Newton, Stokely Carmichael, Rap Brown, Jesse Jackson, John Lewis were all around the same time. Stokely Carmichael? Yeah, Huey Newton, Stokely Carmichael,
Rap Brown, Jesse Jackson,
John Lewis were all around the same age,
about a year of each other.
It was never no one way,
but they found a way not to be taking shots at each other.
They would say, you do your thing, I do mine.
I remember with Stokely Carmichael,
Aquame Toure was that change name.
He came to my headquarters when I got older.
He said,
I remember you as a kid
under Jesse.
And we talked about things.
They had what they called
operational unity.
Now we have people
that just,
we spend more time,
even our rappers,
taking shots at each other
rather than taking shots
at the interview.
Maybe you're scared.
I mean,
let me ask y'all a question y'all are the experts there
how do you have young activists that's more angry at each other and nobody's questioning kanye what
are you really doing what is this young uh black sister that they got out there with the right wing
why are y'all fighting among each other you got enough people that you should be questioning. I get it. What is a latte liberal, Reverend?
Latte liberal is these liberals that live in privileged spots, sit back, sip in lattes,
and dictate this is what we want. This is what is progressive. This is who should speak for us.
They never engage. They don't get their hands dirty. They're not in the trenches.
They don't know anything about what we really strive for.
They speak for us and never speak to us.
And we look at them as the great leaders of the progressive movement.
They're progressive on everything but race.
Let me ask you a question, Rev.
Now, Donald Trump, you think if he loses,
you think he will just walk out of that White House?
Or you think we're going to have a problem?
I think that Donald Trump's going to try every trick in the book to stay there.
And I think that if Biden and them do anything,
they ought to be prepared on how they're going to remove him.
Donald Trump is facing possible prosecution.
He knows that.
And he is not going to try everything in the courts.
He's going to try everything in terms of those polls.
And I would not be surprised if he didn't physically try to stay in that White House.
But he's got to go.
And I think that the preparation for that is something that they ought to prepare.
What happens if Trump is reelected?
If he's reelected,
then we are going to face some very serious
time. I think that
that is why I've said, as we put out
National Action Network's brigade,
is that you've got to get everybody to vote
one, to deal with the presidency,
but also the Senate. Suppose
if they lose the White House to
Trump but elect the Democrats to the
Senate, because there's about 5 to 15
seats that can flip. He can't
do anything if there's a Democratic
Senate and a Democratic Congress.
So people have got to vote all the way down
the ticket. That's why they need to rise up
and deal with this stuff.
Alright, we got more with Reverend Al when we come back. Don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
EJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. We're still
kicking it with Reverend Al. Charlamagne?
Do you believe black women are the true catalyst
for change? I think black women
are a true catalyst
for change. I think black women,
I think black youth, and I think strong
black men. I write in a book about
how when Shirley Chisholm ran
for president when I was 18, I
was one of her youth directors,
and how black men would not support her.
I'm talking about black leading men would not support her.
We need to get out of this sexism and misogyny in our community.
And I saw it firsthand from when I was a kid,
would be in a room with older black preachers and black politicians
that wouldn't support her just because she's a woman.
Any man that's intimidated by a woman because she's a woman. Any man that's intimidated by a woman
because she's a woman is not a real man.
If a woman got to step down for you to step up,
you don't have a step up in you.
Yeah, that's so strange to me
that we're afraid to let women lead,
but yet we lean on our grandmothers
and our mothers our whole lives.
Like, they're the CEOs and foundations of our lives.
So why wouldn't we let a sister lead?
And they led us all our lives.
I was raised by a single mother
and dealt with people like Ms. Chisholm.
I write about that in Rise Up.
I write about Coretta Scott King helped to nurture me
and my activism, Dr. King's wife.
So if we are nurtured by them,
sheltered by them,
that's why I could relate so to George Floyd when I did the eulogy at his funeral.
He called for his mother.
And the thing that shocked me
is that I went out and led a vigil
in Minneapolis at the rest of the family.
Then they asked me to come back and do the funeral.
So when I got back and do the funeral,
I said to Philonise,
who is the brother of George Floyd, and Ben Crump, the lawyer who I call Attorney General of Black Americans, he's really good.
I said, I'd like to meet George's mother before I do the funeral.
They said, his mother died.
I said, his mother died?
They said, yeah.
I said, but he was calling for his mother when he was on the ground dying.
And it hit me, that's how we were.
If nothing else was there for us, you called for mama.
And as he knew that he was at the point of death, he called for his mother who wasn't even there.
We ended up burying him next to his mother in Houston.
And I did the Camilla of the body.
So how do we always know that about mama?
But then we don't want our mama to lead us.
That's ridiculous.
That's ridiculous.
How can a black person in good conscience
be a member of the Democratic or Republican Party, Reverend?
I think that if you join a party to use the party,
then I want to see what you produce.
Most of them join to be used by the party.
And that's why I think that we part company.
I ride in a car to get where I'm going.
I don't ride in a car and ask the car, tell me where you want to go.
And you mentioned Kanye West earlier.
Do you think Kanye West is a huge distraction for what people are really trying to do?
I love Kanye.
I think Kanye's music is great.
But I don't understand how Kanye embraces Donald Trump,
goes and puts a mega hat on in the Oval Office.
His politics over there.
And that is not questioned.
I've sat up with Charlamagne Tha God and you
and talked about people that take shots at some of us,
but none of them, I'm talking about hip-hoppers now,
has said anything to their fellow artists. What are
you doing here? I'm not saying
condemn them or not, but nobody's
even raised the question.
You take shots at your
fathers and mothers, but you won't
say to your fellow artists,
what's up with this? Yeah, at least
not publicly. You gotta condemn
certain behavior publicly,
and I don't think that's causing a beef between you and another person.
It's just checks and balances, right?
You've got to keep people honest.
But not only is it checks and balances,
you don't mind checking and balancing people like me or other leaders,
so you can call us out even on songs.
But you can't.
What him is causing a beef, that is a slave break up the family mentality.
I can take a swing at my father,
but I can't take a swing at my brother,
who's over there with Trump.
Right.
So basically what you're saying is you need Jay-Z
to give Kanye some balls.
I didn't say that, now.
I'm saying all of them.
I'm saying all of them.
All I'm trying to do is let's be consistent here.
That's all.
I'm with you.
I'm with you.
Now, a question.
Do you think this is the most important election in American history,
this one right here?
I think it's one of the most important.
It's certainly the most important in our lifetime.
When you see a Supreme Court stat to take the little we got,
I think it's the most important in our lifetime.
Before we go, I just want to know, to put it bluntly, why are Democrats
so p***y?
When Joe Biden got asked the other day
about stacking the
Supreme Court, why couldn't he just answer the question?
If I knew the answers
why people did things, I'd be wiser
than I am. All I'm saying is I've got
to use the car that's going to get me where I've got
to go, even if I think the car
might have some tires that's going to get me where I've got to go, even if I think the car might have some tires that's going
to give out before I get there.
I just don't like
the fact they're so soft. They just allow
themselves to be pushed over
and it seems like they don't stand
for nothing. That's all I'm saying.
You can't get no argument.
I'm the guy that's always been fighting
and I'm going to keep fighting, but I also
know that sometimes I've got to use what I've got to get what I want.
Jay Brown told me that.
There you go.
I apologize for using that word to you, Rev.
That didn't feel good when it came out.
I couldn't think of no other word.
It's soft.
I've heard it before.
Reverend Al, rise up.
Confronting the Country at the Crossroads is available everywhere you go.
Get books right now, man.
Reverend, it's always a pleasure talking to you, my brother.
Always a pleasure to be with you guys.
Y'all stay strong.
Peace, King.
Breakfast Club, good morning.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report. Talk to Report. This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Now we got to congratulate Nicki Minaj.
She is a first-time mom.
She and husband Kenneth Petty have welcomed their new child to the world.
Drop on the clothes bombs for Nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty.
You know, in this day and age where the black maternal death rate is through the roof, it is always a beautiful thing to hear about a black woman successfully having a baby with no complications and still being here.
That's right.
Now, Nikki gave birth Wednesday in L.A.
We don't know the baby's name or sex, but we just want to say congratulations.
On a healthy delivery.
That's right.
That's it.
Now, do you want some new Riri music? Are you ready for some Riri music? Who's Riri? On a healthy delivery. That's right. That's it. Absolutely need you a notch.
Now, do you want some new Riri music?
Are you ready for some Riri music?
Who's Riri?
Rihanna, man.
Rihanna.
Like Finney Beauty Riri?
Yes.
The artist.
I don't care if Rihanna makes music or not.
Rihanna's doing great out here in life.
Well, she's finally giving us some information about her album,
her ninth studio album, R9.
She said, I just want to have fun with
music. Everything is so heavy. The world we live in is a lot. It's overwhelming every single day.
Now, she was talking to the Associated Press. She said, and with music, I'm using that as my outlet.
I just want to have fun with that. She's also said she's veering away from genre-focused records for
her new music era. She says, now it's more. What I do, I feel personally.
What do I want to put out as an artist?
How do I want to play with my art?
How do I want to interpret that?
How do I want to reimagine it?
So they believe some new music is coming soon.
Hey, ain't none of these no rumors, bro.
These are just stories.
That's what they are.
Look, Angelique is out, and I'm just giving what they give me.
They give me these stories, I'm just telling you.
Let's make the rumor report great again and actually report some rumors.
Make up stuff like everybody else does.
No, we're not doing that.
Now, Takashi.
Actually, I was on Fenty Beauty the other day.
I was on the Fenty Face Shade Finder.
Let me find those.
Trying to find my foundation shade number.
Okay.
Plus Fenty Face Essentials handpicked for my skin tone.
They have a whole quiz.
They have a whole quiz on FentyBeauty.com called the Fenty Face Shade Finder.
Yes.
All right.
Well, let me find out.
I mean, the shade looks good on you this morning.
I can tell you did a little on your nose this morning.
It looks pretty good on you.
No, no, no.
No foundation this morning.
It's all me, baby.
Dr. Natasha Sandy, my dermatologist.
No foundation this morning.
Don't do me like baby. Dr. Natasha Sandy, my dermatologist. No foundation this morning. Don't do me like that. Now, lastly,
Takashi69 reportedly
hospitalized in Florida following
caffeine and hydro,
hydro, what is it? Hydroxycut?
Is that what it's called? Hydroxycut?
Hydroxycut, yeah. That's the
weight loss pills, fat burners.
Exactly. Well, he was looking to get in
shape. He says when he got out of jail, he
weighed over 200 pounds. So he was looking to get in shape. He says when he got out of jail, he weighed over 200 pounds.
So he was, I guess, taking these hydroxy cut pills and some type of caffeine, some powerful diet pills.
And it effed him up.
And he was in the hospital for two days.
Just leave the country and go get your body done like all the other chicks.
What's wrong with you, 6'9"?
You ain't on probation no more.
I guess you can't travel, right?
Well, I don't think he could travel out of the U.S.
I mean, but if he wanted to, he could get a liposuction in the States, right?
How many rat poisons and jokes did we see online yesterday?
I'm sure it was a million of them.
I'm joking.
It's only imagined.
Go get your body.
I mean, you're 20-something years old and you're 200 pounds.
You can lose that by just eating right and running, bro.
Right.
By the way, he went quiet.
He went quiet after his album flopped.
How many records did he sell, like 55,000?
30,000, something like that.
They said he wanted to lose some weight.
He said he was looking big, and before he got back online,
he wanted to lose weight.
He lost 25 pounds and wanted to lose another 25.
I guess that's why he was taking those pills.
But you take those pills, you still got to work out.
You still got to train.
There's no easy way for anything.
Nope, and I tell 6'9 one thing.
If he don't sell no records, he going to lose about 600 pounds
because all them security guards going to be gone
because you ain't going to be able to feed them.
All right?
Telling you that right now.
If you want to lose weight fast, keep doing what you're doing
and not selling no records because that security going to be gone.
That's about 600 pounds immediately lost.
Well, he spoke to academics and he said now that he's at the hospital, he's going to get back to exercise.
And he finally realizes he needs a trainer and not no CVS products.
You better save your money. All right.
You better start running around whatever little neighborhood you live in because you ain't been you can't do no shows.
And you only sold like 30,000, 40,000 records.
All right?
That money is about to be low, low, low, low, low.
All right.
Well, that is your rumor report.
Now, Solomon, who are you giving that donkey to?
There is a woman named Deanne Lorraine.
You know, she actually came for Nicki Minaj yesterday,
and I think we need to have a little petty party for her.
Ha! A petty party!
Nicki Petty!
Who's running with you, man?
Ha! We're going to have a petty party. Yes.
All right. We'll get into that next dunk.
And today's next adult move is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkeys of the Day, ask John the Mayor.
I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the day. Donkeys of the day ask John to make. I'm a Democrat, so being donkey of the day
is a little bit of a mixed up.
So like a donkey.
Keyhole.
Donkey of the day.
The practice club, bitches.
Now, I've been called
a lot in my 23 years
that donkey of the day
is a new one.
Donkey of the day
for Friday, October 2nd
goes to Deanna Lorraine.
Now, do you know
who Deanna Lorraine is?
Good, me neither. But her bio says she ran for election to theanna Lorraine. Now, do you know who Deanna Lorraine is? Good, me neither.
But her bio says she ran for election
to the U.S. House to represent
California's 12th Congressional District.
She lost in the primary election
on March 3rd, 2020.
Her congressional campaign website described her
as a YouTube host, conservative political
commentator, and author of a
book, Making Love Great Again,
and host of her show, Winning
the Culture War with Deanna Lorraine.
Her professional experience includes working as a self-employed life and relationship coach
and as a manager in marketing and PR.
Yeah, man.
Never heard of her.
Okay.
I just know she seems to get attention from time to time, trolling rappers.
A couple of weeks ago, she came at Cardi B and said that the world needs less
Cardi B and more Melania
Trump. Cardi B
responded to Deanna and said very
eloquently, didn't she,
as in Melania, used to sell
that WAP?
I'm going to close the box for Cardi B.
And this morning, well,
actually last night, her tweets were interesting.
Before we get to why she's getting donkey of the day this morning, let me read you a couple of these.
Last night, six hours ago, she tweeted, our president was able to destroy Joe Biden in that debate while having COVID.
The man is a machine. No, Conway is a machine.
And she said, praying for you at real Donald Trump.
Hashtag Trump has COVID.
Then two hours ago, she tweeted,
I'm just going to say what we're all thinking.
Trump was fine until the debate,
where they set up microphones and podiums for him.
Incubation period is usually two to three days.
He tests positive a couple of days after the debate.
I put nothing past the left, nothing.
Hashtag Trump has COVID.
Who the hell's thinking that?
Nobody's thinking that. Never mind the fact Trump has COVID. Who the hell's thinking that? Nobody's thinking that.
Never mind the fact Trump said COVID
was a hoax. He doesn't wear a mask.
He's always attending large gatherings
and his aide Hope Hicks
caught COVID. None of that could possibly
lead to him having COVID.
Just blame it on the Democrats setting him
up at the goddamn debate.
Okay. Alright.
Anyway, just painting the picture for the type of person Deanna seems to be.
Attention is what she wants.
So attention is what she shall receive.
Now, yesterday, October 1st at 3.11 p.m., in a now-deleted tweet, Deanna Lorraine said,
and I quote,
Nicki Minaj just had a child.
Poor kid.
That's it.
That's the tweet.
The pettys, Nicki Minaj and Kenneth, if you're just joining us,
welcomed a child yesterday.
Congratulations to them.
In an era where the black maternal death rate is through the roof,
I am always pleased when black babies are brought into this world
and everybody is healthy and alive after the fact.
So salute to the Pettys.
I just don't understand how there are people on this planet that are so evil
that a child can be brought into this world and for nothing more than attention, likes, and retweets, and press.
Somebody like Deanna Lorraine would tweet out, poor kid.
Now, last time that I checked, Nicki Minaj had a net worth of $100 million.
In fact, she's the first female rapper to ever earn $100 million.
I know money isn't the end all, be all.
There are kids born to rich people with poor character every
day, but what has Nicki Minaj ever
done to warrant this wicked witch of the West,
Deanna Lorraine, to say anything less
than congratulations in regards to her new
child, okay? Deanna, didn't your mama
ever tell you that if you don't got nothing nice
to say, then shut the F up forever?
Like, why all the foul
stuff we see your president say and do
have you never once uttered the words, poor Barron, poor Ivanka, poor Donald, poor Eric?
I don't even know if those are Trump's kids' names.
It isn't Eric, right?
It doesn't matter.
Nobody cares.
The point is, how can you have a book called Making Love Great Again
when you clearly don't have any love in your heart?
If you want to make love great again, start with yourself.
I can look at your Twitter timeline and tell that you are a hurt human.
You are a walking wound.
Only a walking wound would tweet out some nonsense like this
about a black woman who just had a baby,
a baby that is worth more than you right now.
Now, I noticed you deleted the tweet because those damn Bobs.
I know we have had a complicated relationship over the years,
but I have always appreciated the Bob's petty.
I really do.
And today we need to have a petty party,
Bob's it's almost like a celebration for the petties.
Okay.
Nikki Kenneth in the new seed,
Bob's Deanna's Instagram is Deanna for Congress.
I repeat her Instagram is Deanna for Congress. I repeat, her Instagram is Deanna for Congress.
That's D-E-A-N-N-A-F-O-R-C-O-N-G-R-E-S-S.
That's her Instagram.
It's time for a petty party on behalf of the petties.
Okay, you made her delete her tweet yesterday, but you can do better.
I've seen you do better, Bobbs.
I've seen you do better than that.
Okay, I think if you, Bobbs, put your mind to it,
you could make her put her Instagram on private. I've seen you do better than that. Okay, I think if you, Bobbs, put your mind to it, you could make her put
her Instagram on private. I really
do. You got all weekend.
No rush. Just
focus. See, after
Deanna, there was another guy named Dean
Browning. He tweeted,
Nicki Minaj is giving birth to a child
today. If it is a girl,
I pray it does not turn out like her mother.
If it is a boy, I pray it does not turn out like his mother. If it is a boy, I pray it does not turn out like
his father. Bless that child. They will need
a lot of moral guidance. Wow.
His Twitter
at Dean Browning PA.
Now, mind you, these are people running for political office
if I'm not mistaken. Dan Browning,
I mean, Dean Browning is a Republican politician
in Pennsylvania attempting to run for
Congress. I don't know why all of these people that are attempting
to run for Congress are coming for Nikki, are just coming for black female rappers the way that they do.
But at Dean Browning PA on Twitter is his name.
And what you Bobs need to know is he was influenced to tweet that because Deonna did it.
All I'm saying to y'all, Bobs, this is all Uncle Sharla is saying.
If you don't make a real social media example out of somebody,
then they're going to keep trying Nikki and her new baby. So y'all got to protect the petties by being petty. Okay.
Her Instagram is Deanna for Congress, but you ain't get that from me. D-E-A-N-N-A-F-O-R-C-O-N-G-R-E-S-S.
Deanna for Congress on Instagram. And the guy on Twitter, that's at Dean Browning, P-A-D-E-A-N-V-R-O-W-N-I-N-G-P-A.
That's on Twitter.
Hey, Bobs, y'all got work to do.
React accordingly.
So on Monday, I can come in here and say,
Deanna Lorraine was the piñata at the Bob's social media petty party this weekend.
Poor kid.
Please let Chelsea Handler give Deanna Lorraine the biggest hee-haw.
Hee-haw, hee-haw.
That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise.
Damn.
The mayonnaise was heavy in that one.
Damn.
Now, come on, Barbs.
I know you can do this, Barbs.
Hey.
I need the Barbs to get busy this week.
This week, please.
They got the memo.
Yeah.
They got the memo.
All right.
And them white folks the same energy y'all be giving us when we got something to say about Nikki.
All right?
Absolutely.
All right.
Now, when we come back, let's talk about your president, Donald Trump, and his wife.
They have coronavirus.
You think it's a hoax?
Allegedly.
You really got it?
Let's talk about it.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we were talking about Donald Trump, right?
Now, it came out yesterday that him and his wife have coronavirus.
So we're asking, do you think it's real? Do you think it's a hoax?
Do you think he really has the coronavirus?
You want to start with me?
800-585-1051. Let's start with you.
I don't believe it. Sadly, Donald Trump would have to pass
away from coronavirus to make me believe he had COVID. God forbid that happens because I don't
wish death on anyone, but I think this is all a stunt. I feel this is just his way to change the
headlines in regards to not condemning white supremacy. This gives him a reason to not
campaign for 14 days, stay out of the press, keep the bad headlines down, not show up for the next debate.
And I think this could all be a stunt to make one of those value menu vaccines.
They rushing out, look safe.
He'll take it on national TV, all of a sudden be well
and give the illusion to the American public that the vaccine is safe.
He'll look like a hero because he's one of the first to try it.
Millions of people line up to get it.
And boom, microchip implants for all of y'all.
You know, and I've been thinking about this all morning long and I have to agree with you a little bit.
Not the microchips part, but the part where I don't necessarily believe he has it.
But think about it. Let's say he says he has it. He goes on national television.
He acts like he takes the vaccine. He gets healed. He's OK.
And now he looks like the hero. He looks like the guy. Hey, I'm the one that rushed the vaccine. He gets healed. He's okay. And now he looks like the hero.
He looks like the guy, hey, I'm the one that rushed this vaccine.
I'm the one that got this vaccine pushed through.
You need to vote for me because I care more about you than Joe Biden.
So, yes, I think it's a hoax.
I don't necessarily think he has coronavirus.
Now, my homie, Stephanie Young.
Stephanie is a black woman that I highly respect and listen to often.
She left a comment on my Instagram and told me, no, let's not spread this.
COVID is real.
He has it.
She has it.
And this proves that he has failed to address this issue, mocked all the science and doctor's
recommendations.
200,000 people are dead.
Him getting COVID proves all his actions and the resistance to the truth were what we knew
all along. He was wrong and he has failed. And now his selfishness has endangered us all.
First of all, let me say, I totally agree with Stephanie. Okay. Stephanie Young,
totally agree with her. If Trump and Melania really have COVID, they earned it. But my reply
to Queen Stephanie Young would be COVID is definitely real, but it's just hard to believe that as much as this administration lies and has tried to downplay the threat of COVID, that now all of a sudden he would have it.
It feels like an October surprise. And if he does really have it and survives it, we really in trouble because then Trump can push the narrative that that that 99 percent of cases are totally harmless. He's been trying to push that narrative already.
But if he gets it and survives it at his age and his size,
see, that's the thing that y'all not taking into consideration either.
What's that?
If Trump survives, he can really push the narrative that is harmless because he has two important risk factors for COVID complication.
He's 74.
74.
And he's 244 pounds.
He's overweight and bad hair.
He's all butt and gut.
Right.
All butt and gut.
His body math index is over 30, right?
So at just his age, his hospitalization odds are five times higher than young males in the 20s.
And his mortality rate is 90 times higher.
He's 74 and 244 pounds.
Now, you mentioned October Surprise.
For people out there that don't know what the quote-unquote October Surprise is,
tell them what the October Surprise is.
Why you sound like that?
It's not nothing kinky.
You can't make it kinky, bro.
Well, in American political jargon, an October surprise is a news event deliberately created or timed to influence the outcome of an election, particularly one for the U.S. presidency.
Or sometimes an event occurring spontaneously that has the same effect.
So that's what this feels like to me.
It feels like an October surprise.
And I mean, if you Google it, so many of them, I'll give you the last one that we probably
can remember. Let's see. Let's see what the October surprise was in Clinton versus Trump.
Had to be something with Hillary. A recording from 2005 was released on October 7th,
in which Republican Party nominee Donald Trump used explicit language and claimed,
when you're a star, they let you do it. You could do anything. Grab them by the, you know.
Pajamas. Yes, yes, yes.
That was the October surprise. Oh, and then
the same day, WikiLeaks began
a two-month campaign of releasing emails
and experts from the account of
John Podesta, and they shed
a negative light on Democratic Party nominee
Hillary Clinton. So those were the two
October surprises. The recent ones.
Yeah, back in 2016.
Okay. All right, well, let's go to the phone line.
Let's hear from the people.
Hello, who's this?
Good morning.
Hey, what's your name?
You can hear me?
I can hear you.
Yeah, we can hear you now.
Put the new port down and talk to us.
I'm sorry, guys.
Spoken in black and white so early in the morning.
I'm working.
I'm working.
Listen, this is Vic Ante from Newark.
And I just want to say that I do not believe Donald Trump has COVID.
I believe this is a ploy to delay the election.
On the news, they're talking about, oh, this could be so bad for a president
because no one has ever been sick like this.
I just don't believe it.
It's a ploy, and we need to wake up. There are so many
people, including our black
people, who support this man.
He's a horrible person.
How could you?
How could you?
I don't think
they'll delay the election, but I mean, it's sad
that we live in an era where
if our president does have corona,
he gotta die in order for us to believe it.
That's the only way I would believe it. I'm being honest with you.
Goodness gracious. That's it.
Thank you for calling. You be safe out there at work
in Newark, all right? I love you guys.
I'm so proud of you all. Keep growing.
God bless you both.
Thank you so much.
800-585-1051. Now, it came out yesterday
that your president, Donald Trump, has
coronavirus, him and his wife.
So, what are your thoughts?
Is it real?
Is it fake?
Let's talk about it.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about your president, Donald Trump.
What about it?
800-585-1051.
We're asking.
All right.
Now, do you think he has coronavirus?
This is Charlamagne Tha God, Lenard McKelvey talking.
I don't believe it.
Donald Trump would have to die from complications of COVID in order for me to believe it.
And God forbid that happens because I don't wish death on nobody.
And as I told y'all earlier, if he survives coronavirus because he really has it, he can really push the narrative
that 99% of cases are totally harmless because Trump has two important risk factors for COVID
complications. He's 74 and he's 244 pounds. He's all butt and gut. Okay. His mortality chances are
90 times higher than young males in their 20s.
So if he has it and survives it, boy, he really going to push that narrative that 99% of cases are totally harmless.
But I really think this is just all a ploy for him to look like a hero and be one of the first people to take those value menu vaccines.
And then he's going to have all of y'all lining up to take that goddamn vaccine.
And next thing you know, you're going to have a microchip in your ass.
Anyway, let's go to the phone lines.
Hello, who's this?
My name is Dennis.
Hey, Dennis.
We're talking with Donald Trump.
We're asking, do you believe that he really has coronavirus or do you think it's all a
hoax?
I think it's very true.
I think being the fact that they are always around people and so much, it's nothing but the truth.
You think it's the truth?
Yes.
Okay.
I wouldn't doubt that either.
Listen, I mean, you know, if he got it, he earned it.
You know, denying the science, not wearing a mask,
always having these large rallies, being around a whole lot of people.
So if he got it, he earned it.
But I'm telling you, in order for me to believe it, he's got to pass away.
God forbid.
That's the only way I would believe it.
Let's see what the Lord has in store for us.
Let's go to another caller.
Hello, who's this?
This is Jamal.
What's happening?
Jamal, come on, brother.
What's happening, King?
Yeah, what's going on, fellas?
Yeah, he put that out there way too easy, man.
Just out of nowhere.
Just randomly, too.
Right after the white supremacist talk.
So, no, I don't think he got no corona.
Like, he usually has stuff like this.
You know what I'm saying?
Okay.
Yeah, I can't see somebody who lies the way he lies and who has downplayed coronavirus the way he has
would actually come out and admit me, my wife, my aide,
whole pigs, all of us have it.
Like, I just don't see that.
That's just, that's so not him.
Right.
All right, let's go to one more caller.
Hello, who's this?
Enzo.
Enzo, good morning, man.
Enzo, what's happening?
Good morning.
I'd like to say good rising to the Breakfast Club.
It's a pleasure to be here.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, brother.
Basically, check this out.
I think that the whole coronavirus thing is a ploy from his political team
to try to do some damage control on this man.
Because before this happened, they were talking about the debate.
They were talking about taxes.
And up until recently, Melania Trump's leaked tape and whatever.
Now, all of a sudden, he got coronavirus.
Well, that's all they're talking about.
They can keep him locked up to some extent
so he can't do or say anything crazy, I mean,
unless they don't take his phone away, but
if you ask me, that's what it is. You know, he's going to go into quarantine,
that means they're going to keep him locked up for a while, he can't do anything
crazy, and that's all they're going to talk about.
I agree.
That's what I said. I feel like this is just his way
to change the headlines in regards
to him not condemning white supremacy and all
other negative press that he's got and the all of that stuff man it gives him a reason to not campaign for 14
days stay out of the press keep the headlines down before the election now he's changed the
narrative all together and all that goes away but we can't let it go away we still got to bring that
up keep them coming okay what about this what about that yeah he's on he's on quarantine but
what about this what about that just keep bringing it up and god knows what that? Yeah, he's on quarantine, but what about this? What about that? Just keep bringing it up.
And God knows what he'll do if he's there tweeting because he's bored,
because he can't read a book, you know?
That is true. That is true.
All right. Well, thank you, bro.
What's the moral of the story, if there's a moral?
The moral of the story is Donald Trump would have to die,
God forbid, from complications of COVID
in order for me to believe that
he actually has it. That man is
74 years old and 244
pounds. He is all
butt and gut.
If he survives this, we're going to have hell on
our hands because he can really push the narrative
that 99% of cases are totally
harmless, but I don't
believe any of this. I really just feel like this is a
ploy to change the headlines or it's a ploy to
get y'all to line up to take that goddamn
value menu vaccine that they're gonna be
rolling out, because he's gonna be the first person to act like he's
taking it and be the hero, and next
thing you know, all of y'all gonna have microchips in y'all
booties right in time for Christmas.
My goodness. Alright, well,
when we come back, we got your rumor report.
It's Friday, so it's New Music Fridays.
We'll tell you what artists dropped some new music.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's time.
She's spilling the tea.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
A lot of new music is out today.
We start off with 21 Savage.
Him and Metro Boomin have a new album. It's called
Savage Mode 2.
Now, I didn't get a chance to listen to it yet, but let's play
a snippet off the album. This one's featuring Drake.
I'ma slide
anytime you want. Put you in Chanel.
I'ma teach you how to stand.
Slip and slide like a waterfall.
You need some TLC? We can creep
if you want.
Turn your phone off. Take your clothes off. And that was Mr. Right Now. I'm a sad but I'm into a slow song Said the nail lady went and did her toes wrong Said the last man was always playing Drake songs
And that was Mr. Right Now featuring Drake.
Yeah, I haven't gotten a chance to listen to it yet.
I'm a 21 Savage supporter, though.
I like 21 Savage a lot.
First of all, I think he's a dope rapper,
but I think he's a dope human.
I really enjoyed his conversation
with the Big Facts podcast,
DJ Scream and Big Banks yesterday.
Drop on the Clues bombs for the Big Facts Podcast.
And Baby Jade, Baby Jade, I see you too.
I really enjoyed that conversation y'all had with 21 yesterday.
He was giving out some free jewelry in that conversation.
Yep, and also YG released a new album.
It's called My Life 400.
He says that the album is highly influenced by Tupac.
So let's hear a snippet off of that. And that was Rodeo featuring Chris Brown and Tyga.
I haven't heard YG's new album yet either.
I'm going to get to all that this weekend.
And also, shout out to the homie Jeezy.
Jeezy released a new record today featuring Yo Gotti.
It's called Back. All right, so that's some new music, so definitely check it out. it on my back. Who wanna know? Got them in the back. We sell them whole, then you can't return them back.
Alright, so that's some new music, so definitely check it out.
And don't forget Bryson Tiller's album, The Anniversary
is out as well.
Now, Kyrie Irving and
LeBron James, I guess they
really just don't F with each other. So,
Kyrie Irving was asked about taking the last
shot at a game, and this is what he
said. Ten seconds left.
One point game. Who's shooting?
You or Kyrie, KD?
Depends on who's hot. I don't see it as
anything other than that.
One-three pick and roll, or it's an ISO for
either one of us, or it's something great
for our team. One thing I've
always been comfortable with is
I felt like I was the best option
on every team I played for down
the stretch.
This is the first time in my career where I can look down and be like,
that mother****** can make that shot too.
That was kind of a shot at LeBron.
I respect Kyrie.
And, you know, he did have the biggest shot in Game 7 of the NBA Finals that basically won the Cleveland Cavaliers that championship.
But, I mean, also LeBron on the defensive end with that block on Andre Iguodala.
But, you know, it's just kind of weird because Kyrie doesn't really have
the consistency to have that conversation.
Correct.
Because he's hurt a lot.
You know what I'm saying?
And he's great.
Don't get me wrong.
When Kyrie Irving is on the court, he's great.
Best one of the best ball handlers in the league, yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
That's a weird statement to make when you've played with the greatest basketball player of this era.
Right.
So, well, LeBron had this to say in return.
And if there's any way that, you know, he has an influence on you on the basketball court.
We, we're not jealous of each other.
I think that's the best thing.
In professional sports, you have guys that join forces to, you know, become alpha males.
Two guys that dominate in a specific sport on their own respective teams.
Do they follow each other on social media is the big question.
I don't know, but then Kyrie said this after.
Why must it always be brother against brother?
If I'm addressing anyone, I'll say their name.
Come on, y'all.
Don't listen to the false narratives.
Let people live their lives.
It's just a game.
Because we live in a click-based society,
it becomes something bigger.
I'm not going to let it put me against anybody anymore at any point
because that's not what it's about.
Kyrie's right too, but Kyrie has to know when he makes a statement like that,
people are going to bring that back to his days in Cleveland with LeBron James.
That's the first thing people are going to think, Kyrie.
You played with the greatest basketball player of this era, LeBron James.
Like, who's actually in, who's playing
in his 10th NBA Finals, by the way.
And LeBron does follow
Kyrie Irving.
I don't know if Kyrie follows
LeBron, though. And another reason
that's a wild statement is simply because
LeBron James is literally taking
every team he's
played with to the NBA Championship.
And won. And he's about to do it with to the NBA championship. Yeah.
And won.
And he's about to do it again with the Lakers.
He's definitely about to do it again with the Lakers. It's just a weird statement to make when you've played with LeBron James.
I don't know.
I don't know, man.
Kyrie probably is a better closer than LeBron,
but I don't know if he's been on the court in enough big moments to prove it.
That's what the hell I was trying to say this whole time.
All right. Literally that one statement.
Goodness
gracious. All right. Well, that is your rumor
report. All right. Now,
shout to Revolt. We'll see you guys on
Monday. Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is

What game are we going to?
The Lakers Miami Heat.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
They got us sitting courtside virtually.
That's right.
I heard they're going to try to put us on the kiss cam, the virtual kiss cam.
So that's when you got to lean over.
What's wrong with you, man?
You got to lean over into the next person's frame and plant your lips.
Kiss the air, but I'll really be kissing Envy's cheek.
You got fantasies, man.
So game three is Sunday night at 7.30 p.m.
Yes, we will be there live sitting courtside.
Shout to NBA Michelob and Ultra Courtside.
Shout to NBA Michelob Ultra.

fan, 103.5 The Beat. So
we will be sitting courtside for Sunday's game.

And if Charlamagne tries to kiss me,
I am going to Human Resources.
I mean, I got to go get a haircut. We're going to be on
goddamn
TV. I'm serious.
I had no plans on getting a haircut
this weekend. But I guess I got to go get a goddamn haircut.
Because I can't be sitting in the house with a hat on watching the game.
But I can't let this headline show on TV either.
When we come back, we got a positive notice.
The Breakfast Club, good morning.
