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.

After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast

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.

This is why I respect this show, because this is a voice to society.
Changing the game.
You guys are the coveted morning show, but y'all earning it.
Impacting the culture.
They wake up in the morning and they want to hear that Breakfast Club.
The world's most dangerous morning show.
We in the mother...
We in the... Good morning, USA.
Hey.
Good morning.
Good morning to Angela Yee.
Hey, DJ Envy.
Good morning.
It's Tuesday.
All day.
No round of applause for Tuesday.
Tuesday's a happy day.
All right, there you go.
Yes, I was in Detroit yesterday, and my flight kept getting pushed back, pushed back, pushed back.
So I ended up just flying into a different airport.
Where you going?
In that flight.
Newark?
Well, no, I flew into JFK.
I was supposed to fly into LaGuardia.
What I realized is LaGuardia is a much smaller airport.
So whenever there's any type of weather issues,
those flights get pushed back.
Heavy windstorm, absolutely.
A bigger airport like JFK
is international.
We don't have any issues.
So that flight was on time.
Okay.
How's your properties?
You know, Angelique
owns a couple of houses
in Detroit.
Oh yeah, I spoke to you.
I was going to look at one.
One of them is almost done.
The other one,
I'll work on it
once I finish.
Just working on it.
The one thing that I did first
was make sure that the roof is okay on everything because that's the main thing.
You don't want the rain to come and then it floods inside your house or it gets even worse.
So the one thing I did first on all three of them was make sure the roof was good.
The roof was good.
Okay.
All right.
Well, yesterday I didn't do much of anything.
My kids are off for spring break.
My daughter, this was her first real trip
by herself. She flew to LA by herself
a couple of days ago. So I just
speak to her like every hour just to make sure she's good.
Her godparents live in LA.
So she flew to LA for spring break
and this is like the first time that
she's been able to go anywhere. Like my daughter,
I'm not going to say I'm strict, but I'm
overly protective.
And I was very nervous to put her on the flight by herself.
You know, I called Delta, and Delta was supposed to be able to have a companion walk her to the gate.
But she's 16, right?
Well, that's what Delta said when I got to the thing.
She's a grown-up, Envy.
Well, that's what they said.
She can get on the plane.
She's not like eight.
Accompany her to the gate.
You tried to get her a companion?
Yes.
She's 16 years old
So that's still my baby
Some crazy companion
So I FaceTimed her the whole way
And then I FaceTimed her when she got home
But she's in LA
She's happy
She was excited to actually be able
To go somewhere by herself
Those strict parents boy
Kids go wild once they get out of the house
I know that's why I'm letting her go a little bit
Yeah let her go a little bit.
Let her go.
She doesn't need a companion
to walk her through the airport.
When you're in college
and that one kid
or that one girl
that her parents are too strict
when they get to college.
I actually went to high school
with somebody like that.
Her mom was a psychiatrist.
She was never allowed
to go anywhere
or do anything.
Soon as we got out
of high school.
She was drinking,
smoking,
and wilding out in college.
She actually moved out
and was living with some random guy
and dropped out of school.
That's not going to happen.
Just putting it out there.
That's not going to happen to my baby.
All right, and yesterday,
oh, let me tell you what was really exciting.
So I got home last night
and I have a brand new mattress.
Okay.
Right, and it's actually,
I haven't had a new mattress in years
because, you know,
it's like every,
you're supposed to get a new mattress
every 10 years.
Okay.
I had my last one
for maybe like
five or six years
but it wasn't
feeling so comfortable.
It just feels so good
to sleep on a
brand new mattress.
You're balling out there.
You are balling.
No, shout out to
Spectra mattress
though it felt so good
and I don't
do you have a soft mattress
a firm mattress
or a medium?
Do you know?
I don't know.
Alright, I did medium.
My other one was
my back feels good. I didn't want to get out of bed.
Alright, well let's get the show cracking.
John Legend will be joining us this morning.
We'll kick it with John Legend.
Jesus Christ Superstar, right? Yeah, Jesus Christ
Superstar. And we got front page news. What are we talking about?
Oh, let's talk about Donald Trump and his
personal vendetta against Amazon and how
it's driving the stock market down.
Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked.
It's a Tuesday. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ En stock market down. Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's a Tuesday. It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
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, over the weekend, they announced the $500 million lottery winner.
Now, the ticket, I should say the gas station that sold that ticket is less than 60 seconds from my house.
But you didn't buy it. I definitely didn't buy it. I've been asking everybody station that sold that ticket is less than 60 seconds from my house. But you didn't buy it.
I definitely didn't buy it.
I've been asking everybody if they bought that ticket.
ProStyle lives in my neighborhood.
I call ProStyle.
French Montana lives over there.
So you're trying to be friends with whoever bought it?
For $530 million, yes.
Yes, I'm friends with everybody.
Yeah, whatever.
But nobody won a ticket that I know.
But anyway, let's get to some front page news.
Yeah, nobody's telling me.
Let's talk about R.I.P. Mandela.
Winnie Mandela.
Winnie Mandela.
South Africa's first black lady.
She has died.
She was 81 years old.
She married Nelson Mandela back in 1958.
And they divorced back in 1996.
But she was also very active politically.
She was once president of the African National Congress Women's League.
She's reportedly been ill for years.
And she was recently admitted to the hospital with a kidney infection.
Her personal assistant is the person who announced her passing.
Wow. Well, rest in peace.
Now, let's talk about Trump versus Amazon, right?
Yes, Donald Trump.
Because of him, now the Dow has fallen 459 points,
and the Nasdaq plunged almost 3%.
And he is one of the people, well, he's the main reason why this is happening.
He's been attacking Amazon.
I don't know if you've been watching this on the news,
but he has real issues with Amazon,
which has been causing their stock to go down.
Now, he's been calling out Amazon,
and they've lost $60 billion in market value
since they first reported that Trump is, quote,
obsessed with the company.
Feels like he's a little bit jealous,
but he also does not like the CEO, Jeff Bezos, who also
owns the Washington Post.
And that paper has been very aggressive in covering
the administration. So, of course,
Donald Trump has his own personal vendetta
against Jeff Bezos.
He has his personal vendetta.
Seems like anybody that goes against him.
Yeah, but who's not obsessed with Amazon? We're all obsessed with Amazon
in a good way, right? Well, no, this is not in a good way.
It's definitely not in a good way.
That's just billionaire jealousy.
You know, billionaires, they have a penis-sized contest all the time.
So he knows that Jeff Bezos' penis is way bigger than him when it comes to that billionaire status.
He has suggested that Amazon takes advantage of the U.S. Postal Service and doesn't pay its fair share of tax.
But he's actually quite wrong.
They pay the same rate that the post office charges other bulk shippers,
and they collect sales tax in every
state that charges it. And they also don't
collect sales tax on purchases
made from third party vendors. And I think
Trump hates the fact that nobody respects that he's
the president. It's like, you know,
when you don't have as much money as everybody,
okay, that's different. But you think, okay, I become the president
and people will start respecting me more.
Jeff Bezos, Tim, don't give a damn about
Donald Trump. Definitely don't.
Now, what is condom snorting, Yee?
This is what the kids are doing now.
Okay, it's the condom challenge.
What they are doing is snorting condoms and then pulling them through their throats.
So it goes up their nose.
Oh, stuffing the whole condom in their nose?
And then pulling it out of their throat.
These kids are bored, man.
So there's a lot of clips on YouTube that shows kids choking as they try to do this trend.
Don't do coke.
Yeah, terrible.
I'd rather you do coke than sniff a condom up your nose.
This can cause allergic reactions.
Obviously, it can cause choking.
Do none of them.
It can be painful.
It can get stuck in your nasal cavity, stuck in your throat.
Are these used condoms or are they just open to a brand new condom?
Hopefully not used.
In a perfect world, you know what I'm saying, we'd rather people not sniff anything.
But if you're going to have to choose between a condom and cocaine, choose cocaine.
No.
Yes.
Don't sniff anything.
Nothing at all.
How about that?
Cocaine.
Nothing should be going up your nose.
Yeah, don't put none up your nose.
I mean, if you have to, though, because clearly they have to, right?
They don't have to.
They have some type of oral fixation with their nose that they have to have something in there.
You can't have an oral fixation with your nose.
Y'all know what I mean. Y'all know what I mean.
They gotta have something in their nose.
Alright? Rather you sniff coke, I'm just saying.
It's more fun. No.
Alright, well that's front page news.
Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent,
hit us up right now, or maybe you need to
spread some positivity. 800-585-1051.
Get it off your chest.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Let's go.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed.
Say it with your chest.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
So if you got something on your mind, let it out.
Hello, who's this?
It's JR, bro.
I'm calling from Indiana, bro.
JR, get it off your chest.
Oh, actually, I'm actually calling because I agree bro. I'm calling from Indiana, bro. J.R., get it off your chest.
Oh, actually, I'm actually calling because I agree with Charlamagne Tha God, man.
I think it's better if you sniff cocaine rather than sniffing a condom.
Word is bomb.
I would rather kids not get addicted to cocaine or potentially overdose.
So you'd rather them sniff plastic up their nose and choke and die? I think that's the best solution.
Jesus Christ.
It's way more people that have sniffed coke coked, and lived than sniffed a piece
of plastic up their nose
There's a lot of people
sniffing plastic right now
that live in.
Hello.
Hi.
How are you?
I am fine.
What's your name, Mama?
My name is Stephanie.
Hey, Stephanie.
Get it off your chest.
My sister Crystal
had a condition.
She had sickle cell anemia
to which she had a pacemaker.
Her heart gave out
and she passed away.
Sorry to hear that.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
That's awful.
I'm sorry.
Our condolences to you.
Thank you.
I'm trying to keep it together myself.
I don't have the condition that she had,
but I'm trying to not go back to drugs and alcohol because of the loss of my sister.
Well, stay strong.
Stay strong.
You don't need to go back down that road, right?
Right. What song can we not play for you
this morning to make you feel better? Because some of these songs
piss me off. So what song do you not
want to hear? I don't know what I need to hear.
I need to hear something good,
something soothing. I said what song
don't you want to hear, ma? What about
Miguel? What about Miguel Skywalker? That's a
great record. Yeah, that song. We want
to play that. Yeah, we're going to play that for you.
Okay, well, this is what we'll do.
We'll delete Post Malone Rockstar for you, okay?
Okay.
Would that make you feel better?
Yes, please.
All right, good.
Post Malone got to go.
All right?
And I hope you have people that you can call when you feel like you might be sliding back
or going through something, people you can talk to.
You're so considerate.
Just know that if you play Post Malone this morning, you're hurting that young lady who
has sickle cell and whose sister just died, okay?
Hello, who's this?
This is Al.
Al, what's up, bro?
Get it off your chest.
Yeah, I want to say that I'm blessed.
First off, I'm blessed that, you know, the mother of my son finally let me see my son.
I don't know what changed her mind, but the last half I've been getting them every other week.
So I'm blessed that I've been getting them like that.
And then the other thing is, Charlamagne, man,
how are you going to say that you'd rather have your kids out here
snoring coke than these condoms?
They shouldn't be snoring nothing, period.
Duh, but if you had a choice, hypothetically.
There's no hypothetical.
Yeah, there's no choice to be made.
Who said addicted?
Are they addicted to sniffing condoms?
You just said that they had a fixation with things in their nose,
so evidently they got an addiction to something.
Okay, well, listen, let me ask you a question.
This is a serious question since you want to be so serious.
If you had to do one or the other, would you rather sniff a plastic condom up your nose or one line of cocaine?
He's not going to do either.
I'm not either.
You're right.
Oh, never mind.
You know fun.
Get off my phone.
I hate you.
I party pooper.
Can't even have fun with y'all this morning.
Y'all forget y'all do a radio show sometimes.
Jesus Christ.
I wouldn't want to sniff any.
But you sniff coke, so you know what that's...
I've never sniffed coke before.
You faked it.
I don't even like to think about kids sniffing coke.
I smoked coke in a blunt before.
I know you don't want to think about kids sniffing coke,
but guess what?
That's the reality of the situation.
A lot of these kids are on drugs out here.
Sorry.
My goodness.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Hit us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Pick up the mother, mother phone and dial.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed.
Say it with your chest.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
So you better have the same energy.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, it's Alphonse.
Man, we was good.
Alphonse, what's poppin'?
Yo, I just want to thank everybody at my job, man,
for not coming in,
because I'm getting all this extra overtime.
My birthday's Thursday.
I need the bread.
Alphonse, go celebrate by sniffing a condom, man.
Nah, you don't want to do that.
Oh, man.
Alphonse, you said you was coming to the club
with me the other night, man.
I know I was supposed to, bro, but I had to do my daddy thing.
The Easter thing, you know what I mean?
I was supposed to, but I couldn't make it.
I was supposed to come last night, too.
Yeah, I know.
My boss called me at like 2 o'clock, like, don't come to work.
You got to get this money.
You got to raise these kids.
I hate when people say, I got to do my daddy thing.
What do you mean you got to do your daddy thing?
You're a daddy.
I was doing the daddy thing.
Yes, the daddy thing. That's right. Take care of your kids, man. I phone with me on social media. I phone Sims always with his daughter. I got to do the daddy thing, brother. I was doing the daddy thing. Yes, the daddy thing.
That's right.
Take care of your kids, man.
Iphone hit me on social media.
Iphone's always been his daughter.
Gotta do my daddy thing.
He hit me on social media to say he coming to the club.
He just, he didn't come.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up?
Yo, this is Bobby, man.
What's going on?
Bobby was cracking.
Get it off your chest.
Yo, man, listen.
The whole island of Jamaica, y'all got a whole list out.
Brooklyn took the last L when the Dream Chasers ran down on Safari. We took that. Jamaica, y'all got a whole list out. Brooklyn took the last L when the Dream Chasers ran down on Safari.
We took that. Jamaica, y'all got a
whole list out. Hey, yo, watch Safari crying
on the radio. He act like he's not from
that area. Why are you mad at him for that?
Let me ask you a question. You ever had a gun put on
your forehead and you had to lay on the ground?
You know his uncle just got killed in
a robbery, right? Everybody reacts
different, man. You can't be mad at that man for that, man.
Why everybody got to be so tough all the time? His uncle just
died like last month. It's not about being tough.
It's not about being tough. He's
from the element. He knows that
Jews are getting ran down on for Chinese
food money, foreign wings and fried rice.
But you do know his uncle
just got killed last month in a robbery. It doesn't
matter. He almost died. He probably feels that way. If you don't
know what we're talking about, I'm sure we're talking about it in the
rumors. Safari got robbed at gunpoint.
We'll fill you in with all the details.
And there's people out there hitting me up saying, yo, give Safari donkey of the day.
Why would I give Safari donkey of the day for being robbed?
Like, y'all know that can happen to anybody.
Anybody, anytime, anywhere.
What's up with y'all, man?
It's not like he was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He was actually where he needed to be.
We'll talk about it.
It's like, come on, bro.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Talisha Hawkins calling from Dayton, Ohio.
Morning, mama. Get it off your chest.
Good morning. I listen to y'all every morning.
I'm at my mama's house right now. I am
six days from graduating. Hey.
Becoming a registered nurse.
Hey. I live in Dayton, Ohio.
I cannot believe I got through to y'all.
Oh, my God.
Well, congratulations, mama.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
I'm at my mama's house trying to find something to wear to a mock interview.
Okay.
Hey, I'm happy for you, man.
You three days.
You say you three days or three weeks away from being RN?
Six days.
April 10th, I'll be pinned as a registered nurse.
I cannot believe I got through to y'all.
Congratulations.
Congratulations, mama.
I'm 18.
She'll be a real n***a, y'all.
I got three babies at home, so I'm doing this for my babies. I'm so glad n***a, y'all. I got three babies at home,
so I'm doing this for my babies.
I'm so glad I got through to y'all.
Thank y'all so much.
We're praying for you.
Hello, who's this?
Hey.
Hey.
What's up, man?
Get it off your chest.
I was just calling to see if y'all could stop
talking about politics.
Come on, man.
I be feeling you, bro.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I'm not even going to lie.
I'll be with you. I'll be like, I don't want to talk about politics. I'm with you. I'll be feeling you, bro. I'm going to be honest with you. I'm not even going to lie. I'll be with you.
I'll be like, I don't want to talk about politics.
I'm with you.
I am a Trump supporter, but I love your shit.
I listen to it all the time.
Oh, that's why, because he supports Trump.
Yeah, yeah.
It sucks whenever the first thing I turn on in here is something bad about Trump.
I mean, what do you want us to do, though?
There's some facts right now.
He has a problem with Jeff Bezos from Amazon.
The stock market is down because of decisions that he made.
What's happening? I feel him
only because we all know Donald Trump is trash
and I mean, how many different ways can you say Donald Trump
is trash? He's saying he's a Trump supporter though.
He's got a big mouth, but I love his policies
because he helps small businesses
around where I'm from. His policies
and stuff. Well, we don't like Trump because
he's a racist bigot, alright? That's why
those policies affect people like us.
So I understand.
We see both.
We see different sides of the spectrum.
But I am tired of talking about trash-ass people.
So I feel you, my brother.
Anything else?
No, I mean, I love y'all.
It's a great show.
Y'all are hilarious.
I love listening to y'all.
Thank you, sir.
Can we stop with the politics?
You know what?
Joe, you would like it if we were supportive of Trump?
He wants to shut up and dribble.
That's what he wants us to do.
Shut up and dribble.
We'll slow down on talking about his trash-ass president.
Don't y'all get tired of talking about trash-ass people?
I like to let people know what's going on.
I don't want to do trash-ass stuff every day.
Listen, there's a lot of trash-ass people we ignore.
Donald Trump could be one of them, by the way.
Except that it affects us.
Get it off your chest.
We got rumors on the way?
Yes, let's talk about Blac Chyna with this stroller fight.
Find out why Rob Kardashian
is upset and what she has
to say about being called
a, quote, hood rat.
All right, we'll get
into all that when we
come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
I don't care what y'all
say.
That Miguel boy is bad,
man.
Drop one of Clues bombs
for Miguel, damn it.
Well, morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Blac Chyna.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The rumor report.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report.
The Breakfast Club.
Now we talk to you about this altercation that Blac Chyna had at Six Flags.
She was with her 18-year-old boyfriend, YBN Almighty Jay,
and she was with Dream and also with the child that she has with Tyga, King Cairo.
Why that dude got so many letters in his name?
YBN Almighty Anna Jay?
Well, J-A-Y.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Now, the woman who actually got into the altercation with Blac Chyna, Alexis, is speaking out.
She talked to TMZ and here's what she said.
I've seen Blac Chyna's children, not knowing that these were her children because her nanny was pushing her children.
So when she walks the baby towards me, I'm thinking that this is a mother giving me permission to interact with her child.
So I touched the baby simply like this.
And I'm like, oh, you're cute.
The lady smiled.
She walked off, like trying to follow behind her.
And she said, don't touch the kid, bro.
Alexis didn't give a damn about doing that hair to be on TMZ, huh?
You're just going to jump on television with that little gerbil ponytail?
Yeah, but she shouldn't be touching anybody's kids regardless.
You just shouldn't be touching anybody's child.
She shouldn't be.
She needs to be touching her head.
Now here's what else she had to say.
Some random lady comes up and she's like, oh my God, are you the girl that Black Chyna was talking about?
And she's like, well, she said she was going to whip your ass.
So a couple of minutes later, I see her again.
I addressed her as, excuse me, did you have a problem with me touching your child which i did not know
was your child and she's like yep i sure did and she took her things off and she addressed me as
she was about to hit me and her boyfriend ran up and her boyfriend hit me and he hit on my sister
and we were fighting her boyfriend we weren't fighting her if alexis had that same gerbil
ponytail and six flags she's always ready to fight, by the way.
That's the always ready to fight hairstyle.
My goodness, you don't touch anybody's kid.
Right, well, she said she touched Dream on the hand, not knowing it was Blac Chyna's child.
But I agree with that.
But I do feel like people come up to me all the time and like, oh, take a picture with my kid.
I mean, if they ask you, but if they just walk up and you just touch somebody's child, I'm funny with that.
What she's saying is she said, oh, the baby's so cute and then the nanny pushed the baby toward her
so she like bent down.
You can say that.
You don't put your
little dirty hands on my baby.
I don't know if you
wash your hands after you pee
or not.
Keep your hands off my child.
Don't be just walking up
and touching her.
But then I also feel like
getting into an altercation
like that with the baby there too
is also not the best idea
and Rob Kardashian
thinks that as well.
He's very upset at Blac Chyna
for putting one-year-old Dream
in harm's way over the weekend
so he's taking her back to court.
Now he's been watching her.
Why does nobody care that YBN Almighty was
the one fighting Alexa, though?
That didn't set off going along with nobody?
We're about to get to that, too.
What? It's a boy and a girl.
Shut up. He's like 16, I think.
He's 18, and he shouldn't be fighting women
anyway. He shouldn't be fighting nobody. At all, period.
No matter how their hair look.
All right, so anyway, especially this in front of the kids.
So apparently Rob Kardashian said he's been increasingly worried for his daughter's health and safety and he didn't like how Blac Chyna turned the stroller the dream was in into a weapon
as she attacked a woman who dared to touch the kid.
Stop it.
And he also doesn't like the fact that Black China brings new men around his child.
That's the real issue.
Including her 18-year-old boyfriend, YBN Almighty J.
He went to an order similar to the one in the Jesse Williams custody case.
Neither parent can introduce a boyfriend or girlfriend to the child unless their relationship lasts longer than six months.
Why nobody got YBN, YBN, ABZ, Almighty J fighting the girl on camera, though?
I'm so sick of people turning the camera on too late.
Y'all turn the camera on after the good stuff has already happened.
All right, so he's also asking for a massive
reduction in child support. He pays $20,000
a month in child support. How about a massive reduction
in weight, bro? Which he thinks that's not fair. Leave his weight alone.
Yeah, stop it. First, they have 50-50
joint custody, and he also
feels that she makes more money than him,
so why is he paying her $20,000?
I don't like him shaming her for using that
scroll as a weapon, okay? When you're in him shaming her for using that scroller as a weapon.
Okay?
When you're in a fight and you know it's war, everything's a weapon.
I think you should try to avoid altercations that serious.
You say that when you fight.
Somebody touch a kid and then you say something, they start acting up, you start fighting.
Anything's a weapon at that point. Anything's a weapon.
Come on, man.
People are crazy.
They got knives, guns.
My mom used to use that wooden spoon that was a decoration in the kitchen on my ass all the time.
Anything's a weapon. You deserved it, though. It kind of felt like used to use that wooden spoon. That was a decoration in the kitchen on my ass all the time. Anything's a weapon.
You deserved it, though.
It kind of felt like that whole situation escalated way more than it had to.
And I would feel like if your young kids are around, you wouldn't try to want to escalate a situation.
That's just me.
That is true.
All right.
I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
All right.
Thank you, Miss Yee.
When we come back, we got front page news.
Condom snorting.
Wow.
Go ahead, Envy.
We'll talk about it. Hey. I don't know why y'all just don't do cocaine, but we'll talk about that. All right. It's snorting. Wow. Go ahead, Envy. We'll talk about it. Hey.
I don't know why y'all just don't do cocaine,
but we'll talk about that. Alright, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne
the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. The streets are still
the streets. Don't ever forget that. Yeah.
Let's get some front page news.
Condom snorting.
Yes, condoms. The condom
challenge is what the kids are doing nowadays.
And what they are doing is sniffing a condom up their nose and then pulling it out of their mouth.
So it goes down their throat.
I'm pretty sure I would rather you sniff cocaine.
Who thought of that?
Like, who said, you know what, I'm going to put this condom in my nose and see if it comes.
Like, who thought of that?
I have no idea where this came from.
But not only is that a painful experience, you could also choke.
You can have an allergic reaction,
it could get stuck in your nasal cavity
or in your throat. And I don't mind
the devil's playground. These kids clearly don't have enough
to do when school is out, or maybe even
during school, but I would much rather them sniff
cocaine. Our cameraman and his
Steve had a very, very, very good
compromise, because I said I'd rather people sniff coke.
He said, yo, how about just have
cocaine flavored condoms?
How about not? Makes perfect sense to me.
The condoms could also end up in your lungs.
So extremely dangerous.
That would be uncomfortable. I'd rather you sniff coke.
Alright. And Donald Trump.
More issues now with Amazon.
You know, he's obsessed with Amazon.
They've lost $60 billion in
market value ever since they've reported
that Trump has been obsessed with that company on March 28th.
And he does have a longtime grudge against the CEO of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, who also owns the Washington Post.
That paper has had very aggressive coverage of the administration, and therefore the president just does not like them. In addition to that, you know, we're also having some issues with these tariffs that we have now. And China has responded to Donald Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs
with three billion dollars of tariffs of its own. That's billionaire beef right there.
OK, Donald Trump is just clearly jealous of Jeff Bezos because Jeff Bezos is a multi-billionaire,
you know, and he's taking that out on him by putting sanctions on him just because he
can't because he's the president.
Well, yeah, he wants to.
And he's saying things that are just incorrect, like saying that Amazon takes advantage of the U.S. Postal Service and doesn't pay its fair share of tax.
Completely untrue.
They pay the same rate that the post office charges other bulk shippers. And they also collect sales tax in every state that charges it.
And they don't collect sales tax on purchases made from third-party vendors.
That's up to them.
That's got to suck when you got beef with a person,
then they become the president of the United States of America.
And then they take that grudge into the White House with them.
Jesus Christ.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
Speaking of Jesus Christ.
When we come back, speaking of Jesus Christ,
John Legend will be in the building.
Of course, he played Jesus Christ in Jesus Christ Superstar Live.
So we'll kick it with him.
He's also releasing a new record this week.
So we'll talk to John Legend when we come back.
Don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
And I really can't believe he's here, by the way.
Why do you say that?
Because I was watching Jesus Christ Superstar last night.
And I was like, there's no way John is getting up to do radio anymore.
In the snow, in everything. In the snow, in everything.
No.
In the weather, in everything.
Good morning.
John Legend.
I woke up.
I didn't even have my alarm set because I forgot I had this interview, and I woke up
because I was still feeling kind of buzzed from last night, and I looked at my schedule.
I was like, oh, I have an interview, and I made it.
He was like, who scheduled this?
I'm proud of myself.
I'm really proud of myself for being here right now.
Did you not know I was going to be on TV live for two hours the night before? I made it. He was like, who scheduled this? I'm proud of myself. I'm really proud of myself for being here right now.
Did you not know I was going to be on TV live for two hours the night before?
Man, I had a good time last night, though.
Let's talk about that.
Jesus Christ Superstar Live.
Yeah, man.
What made you do that?
Man, when they offered me the role, I was like, I should take it, man.
It's Jesus.
It's Jesus Christ.
It's Jesus Christ Superstar.
It's an iconic show.
And the role couldn't be more iconic. So let's take it. Let's do it. It's a challenge and I'm going to try to do it.
Nervous at all? Two hours live? I wasn't nervous. I felt good. We had done a dress rehearsal
the night before and it really went well. So I just felt like we were going to do a
good job and I feel good about what we did. Why weren't you dressed like Jesus though?
What is Jesus dressed like? That's true too. I thought about that. I was trying to
explain it to my daughter last night. I was like, you know, Jesus was
black, but like the long hair maybe?
We've seen so many versions of him
that were, you know, based
on what people just decided he looked
like. We don't know what he looked like exactly.
We know he's probably browner than a lot of the
versions we've seen. We don't know what
his hair was long or if it
was shorter. We decided we were just
going to make him look modern and
make the whole show look modern.
Was there any pushback on Jesus being depicted
as a black man?
People ask me about it, but I didn't get much
crap on Twitter
from anybody or anything like that.
I'm sure somebody was at home
upset. Did you have a problem
playing that role?
Was that something like, do I want to test that? I'm sure somebody was at home upset. Did you have a problem playing that role?
Was that something like, do I want to test that?
No, I felt like it would be a challenge to play it.
I knew it was going to be a lot of pressure because people have a lot of expectations for it.
But I felt good about it.
I felt like I could do it, and I was ready to do it.
Did you learn anything new about Jesus throughout this process?
Well, I feel like this wasn't the biblical Jesus. I grew up in a preaching family,
so I've grown up knowing about Jesus my entire life.
And I have so many ministers in my family
and read about him plenty.
But this was a character as it was written
by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice.
So it wasn't meant to be exactly strictly biblical.
It was meant to be an imagination
of what his last days might have been like
and what his interactions with his friends
might have been like,
what his interactions with his followers
might have been like,
and what kind of maybe like resentment
he might have had
knowing that he had to make that sacrifice.
How do you gauge if you did a good job or not?
Do you get up and read all the reviews?
Do you go to social media?
I did.
I looked at both.
I looked at both,
and the reviews have been really good, and social media, you know up and read all the reviews? I did. I looked at both. I looked at both and the reviews
have been really good
and social media,
you know,
it can't be 100% good
but it was very good.
Did you look for
a Donald Trump review?
Did you see if he was
here last night?
I saw Bill O'Reilly
saw it.
He was upset
that everybody
looked like they was
from a tattoo parlor,
he said.
He said that for real?
Yeah.
There was a lot of tattoos.
I thought it was
like some nice tattoos
before.
How much preparation goes into executing?
Oh, we rehearsed for a long time.
It was a lot of really me and Sara Bareilles and Alice Cooper.
We're all, you know, known for pop music more,
but everybody else was all like Broadway professionals,
and everybody was just so good and professional,
and they made us feel like we were supported and protected. we've been rehearsing for the past few few weeks i actually started
rehearsing in february then i went on tour in asia for a few weeks and came back and finished
rehearsing and um we were ready by by sunday night it felt good yeah la times said that uh it
shouldn't have worked but it did because of the fact that you know how to command a venue full
of fans yeah we wanted to feel like a concert, so it felt like, you know, that audience being
there, it felt like it was a real concert mixed with a theater experience.
They said when you blinked, the crowd went crazy.
They were really ready for this one.
Yeah, they were hyped.
No, it was cool.
I'm used to it.
I mean, that's the way I like to perform.
If it was in a studio and it was empty, I'd have felt more nervous probably because it wouldn't have that energy.
Couldn't feed off of it.
Yeah, I enjoy feeding off the energy.
Now, you're one award away from an EGOT.
Yeah.
But you're missing the Tony, right?
No, Emmy.
You're missing the Emmy.
You got the Tony, you got the Oscar, you got the Grammy.
Yeah, we just got a Tony for Jitney last year.
We did a revival of Jitney and won Best Revival.
Is that something you're aiming for?
Aiming for?
I wouldn't say aiming for, but I wouldn't be mad if I got it.
I mean, it would be nice.
I mean, we just did something on television on Sunday.
It's eligible.
Is it hard to create from that perspective, though?
Like when you know, damn, I can win an Emmy.
No, because if you start thinking like that,
then I think that's when you go astray creatively. If you start thinking,
well, how can I win an award for this? I think if you
go into it thinking, I need to make this amazing,
then the awards will come.
And that's the way I approach everything
creatively. Music, film, everything.
So you didn't expect a Grammy to Oscar or Tony either?
Well, I think Grammys are more
to be expected because this is the thing I
do. That's my day job. That's what I work
on all the time. And if we do a good job in music,
we know Grammys will come. But everything
else, you know, it's all gravy.
And then Common has the ego, right?
Yeah, he has everything but a Tony.
And I have everything but an Emmy.
Y'all have those conversations?
We're both proud of each other. Obviously, we got the Oscar
together and we got
a Grammy together as well.
And, you know, we're rooting for each other.
Alright, we have more with John Legend when we come
back. Keep it locked. Here's Kendrick Lamar with love.
Morning everybody. It's DJ
Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
John Legend's in the building.
Now I see the whole gang has been in Wyoming with
Kanye a little bit recording. Have you been? Yeah, I haven't been out
there yet. I'm going to get out there as soon as I can.
I've been so focused on this show, I haven't had a chance to.
Then I was in Asia, but I'm going to try to get out there too.
Are y'all swarming the secrecy?
Do you guys sign NDAs about even talking about it?
Well, I haven't even been out there yet, so I don't know if there are NDAs,
but apparently people are breaking NDAs nowadays.
Yeah.
Do you know who did Beyonce?
Yes.
Did you know when it happened?
No, we weren't there.
But we know people that were there.
We know what happened.
Wow.
Was it a love bite or was it a chuck bite?
Chrissy knew before I knew.
She told me and we're sworn to secrecy.
So did Chrissy text you like, you won't believe what happened?
She told me in person.
She didn't want any electronic record.
Wow.
Now you played Frederick Douglass on Underground.
Yes.
And now you're playing Jesus.
Yes.
I feel like they both had a similar struggle for liberation of a people.
Yeah.
A lot of people talk about Jesus in terms of liberation.
And there's a lot of theology around Jesus as a liberator.
And, of course, Frederick was as well.
What else did they have in common to you?
Well, they were persecuted at the time.
And I think anybody who fights for disrupting the status quo, I mean, people glorify Martin Luther King now, but he was persecuted.
And he wasn't even popular when he was alive.
His approval ratings were underwater like Donald Trump right now. So it was like, you know, people, when you're fighting for liberation,
when you're disrupting the status quo, when you're upsetting the people in power,
a lot of times you're not going to be popular at the time.
And we've seen that with a lot of great leaders. Now, you've been very honest about Donald Trump.
Yeah.
And, you know, we joke a lot that you're going to get flagged at the airport.
Have you seen anything negative?
I haven't.
I haven't gotten audited yet, knock on wood.
But I pay my taxes on time.
But, you know, who knows what's going to happen.
But we hopefully won't have him for president for too long.
But who knows?
What's the best way to disrupt this system, you think?
Well, I think part of it's through protests.
We've seen it with Black Lives Matter.
We've seen it with the March for Our Lives. We've seen it with Black Lives Matter. We've seen it with the March for
Our Lives. We've seen it with
the Women's March. A lot of folks
out there are protesting, but they're also
deciding that it's not enough to
protest. We've got to vote. We've got to stay engaged
with our politicians and make sure
they do the right things for us.
And I think that's the best thing we can do.
I read something that you're backing startups
for former inmates.
Yeah. So a lot of the work we do with Free America is my that's my organization.
It's all about ending mass incarceration.
And one of the things we do is work with people who get out of prison and need to be productive and need to be part of society again.
And a lot of times we forget about them. And a lot of times they can't get a job.
They can't reintegrate into their community
and they end up getting in trouble again. So
we wanted to create a situation where we invest
in them and give them opportunity to succeed
and be entrepreneurs so that they
can reintegrate back into society
and make the world better and not get in trouble
again and just be productive again.
What made you invest in that? Was it family members?
Family, man. I've had family members
that have gone through that.
And neighbors. Well, you know, I do.
I do send my friends and family money. Some of them have been incarcerated.
And it's hard, man. It's hard seeing people that have already paid their debt to society have to pay that forever.
And not be able to just live.
And from voting to working to being able to get housing,
there's so many obstacles we put in people's way after they get out of prison.
And some people are like, well, they deserve it.
They committed a crime.
But honestly, after they pay their debt, like, why do they have to keep paying it?
Yeah, I mean, it makes no sense to me that we send people to correctional facilities
but don't try to correct them.
Yeah, like, do we want them to get better?
Do we want them to come out and be great? Or do we want them
to be burdened by this the rest of their lives?
Now, with Jesus Christ Superstar,
what do you do when you gotta use the bathroom?
Oh, I had breaks. We had commercials.
I saw that. We got enough time to go handy? Yeah, we had time.
I mean, number
one was definitely on the
docket. Number two might have been a struggle, but
Yeah, so you couldn't be number two there.
But, uh, no, I had plenty of time.
We had good commercial breaks.
And there's scenes where I wasn't even in.
So, you know, I was good.
What does John Legend love the most at this moment, professionally?
Professionally, I just love when it all comes together.
Like last night, that was a high for me.
It was when we had this team of hundreds of people, production people, choreographers, dancers, singers, actors.
And when it all comes together, it's beautiful.
It's beautiful.
A lot of the lead cast was very diverse, too.
Was that something that you wanted to make sure happened?
We all wanted it.
NBC wanted it.
All the producers wanted it.
Obviously, they cast me as Jesus.
But we had Asian-Americans, Hispanic, black, white.
Everybody was in the cast.
It was really race-blind as far as the casting.
And they wanted it to look like America, look like the Broadway community.
And I think it was a brilliant idea.
It looked great.
It sounded great.
Everybody did a great job.
How do we keep diversity from being a trend and actually being normal?
Well, I feel like we are diverse.
I feel like the most natural thing is for us to be diverse, for us to be, you know, homogenous and monochromatic is actually what's unnatural.
And so for us to look like America, look like the world, that's the most natural thing for us to do.
And I think people are realizing that and also realizing that black people hispanic people we spend money we we like to watch
entertainment that reflects our lives asian americans you know we uh we all spend money
and we want to see entertainment that um reflects who we are too and we've seen plenty of entertainment
that does it and we have a hunger for that if you make content that's great that reflects who we are
then um we're gonna spend money on it.
And, I mean, Black Panther is all you need to say.
Like, people were ready for that.
They were hungry for that.
And once we gave it to them, billions of dollars.
And you got a production company, too, so you do film and television.
Yeah.
Is it hard not to come off as biased?
Meaning that, like, if you say, I want all black people on this cast,
I want all women
in this cast,
do you do that?
No, but we want it
to be multicultural.
We want it to reflect
what America looks like
and we do lean towards
stories that I'm familiar with
or that I connect with,
so we probably lean
toward more stories
that represent black history
and black life.
But, you know,
there's plenty of other producers out there,
so I'm just one point of view.
And if all of us get a chance that have something to offer,
then the entertainment that's available to everybody will be diverse.
What do you have coming down the pipeline?
Well, we've got a movie we just did called Monster that went to Sundance that's really amazing.
So that's going to come out later this year.
We've got some other movies that will be at Tribeca.
One's called OG.
And one's called United Skate to America.
And that's a documentary.
So we've got a lot of good things coming.
Now, how is marriage life?
You've been married a couple years now.
I love it, man.
It's good.
I love being a dad.
I love being a husband.
And we have another baby on the way. And it's exciting, man. It's good. I love being a dad. I love being a husband. And we got another baby on the way.
And it's exciting, man.
Now, when we talk about, you know, me and Charlamagne talk about it all the time,
that when your wife is pregnant, it's probably the best time sexually
because your wife is more attractive.
Do you feel the same way with yours?
I love when my wife is pregnant.
It's like femininity on a thousand trillion.
It's beautiful to me.
Nah, it's the most amazing thing ever.
Let John go, man.
John was up all last night playing Jesus.
All right.
All right.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Safari.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
The rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, Safari did Angie Martinez's show yesterday,
and he talked about an incident that happened
right before he went to her show
where he got robbed at gunpoint.
Here's what he said.
What's happening, first of all?
Are you okay?
Um, I just...
Oh, man.
I just got robbed at gunpoint. two dudes with guns just ran up on me
me face down on the floor with a gun to my head they just took everything where did this happen
jersey they took everything so the police they're working on it they just told me
not to really say too much until they figure the things out
awful situation he tweeted out this morning was probably one of the worst scariest nights of my They just told me not to really say too much until they figured things out.
Awful situation.
He tweeted out, this morning was probably one of the worst, scariest nights of my life.
Now, he goes on to talk about experiences in his own family that just happened recently.
You said you was at the club or you left the club? No, I left.
I wasn't in, you know, when I was there, I was with my security.
I had like about 30 people and all that.
But then, you know, when everything is done and all that, I'm like, all right, it's cool.
Everybody, peace out.
And then just call me by myself.
I was with one other person.
I was with my chef.
I got out of my car.
So when I got out of my car, they just came out of nowhere and just backed out on us.
And my uncle just got killed for a robbery.
Yeah, no, I'm so sorry about that.
The last thing I'm thinking is what my mother would have to go through
if she was to get that call.
So he's still dealing with the trauma from his uncle
and then that happened to him.
Absolutely.
People are very cold, man,
because people are hitting me up saying,
give Safaree donkey of the day.
Why would I give a man donkey of the day
for getting robbed?
No, nothing at all.
And it's his first time speaking on it after it happened,
so of course he got choked up
and he's thinking about his mom.
Now, I will say,
I don't know why you would come
to an interview with Angie Martinez.
That I would like to know.
He probably had a schedule already.
I don't care.
He just got robbed.
If it was that serious and it was that traumatic
of a situation, why would you still go to an interview?
I'm not going to lie, that safari works really hard.
It works hard, yeah.
He probably felt like he had this on his schedule.
He wasn't going to cancel it.
He probably didn't think he was going to break down
when he was talking about it.
He probably thought...
He wanted to just keep it moving.
Absolutely.
I'm not going to let this stop me from doing what I got to do for myself for work.
Or you probably was thinking to yourself, you know, I just got robbed.
A lot of people do go to social media when they have issues like that.
Why not go do an interview with Angie Martinez?
There's better cameras in there.
And in addition to that, he probably felt like it's going to come out anyway.
So he might as well be the first person to tell the story.
I think he got there.
He was probably effed up.
He was probably still thinking about it
and Angie was like, what's wrong with you?
And he probably broke down and said it.
Yeah, but I also feel like when things like this happen
and the police are involved, it's going to come out.
So wouldn't you rather be the person
to talk about what happened before it's in the news
and then everybody's speculating?
He just said what happened.
I don't think he planned that one.
Why didn't they take the make-up?
I don't think it was planned, but I'm saying it happened.
Why didn't he take the fur?
I don't know if he had that
on. He had a fresh fur on on Angie's show.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean he had it on.
Oh, you think he probably went back upstairs and got another one?
This happened after he left the club.
He was coming out of his car when it happened so he
might not have had the fur on. I mean, he can't drive
with that trench on so I'm sure he got out
the car without the trench. But fortunately
he is okay and there's nothing funny about it.
Alright. God bless the fire. It could have been is okay, and there's nothing funny about it. Yes.
God bless the father.
It could have been way worse.
Meek Mill is going to stay locked up,
and that's because the judge has shut down his bid
to be released on bail.
She didn't give any reasons
for her decisions,
Judge Denise Brinkley,
but everybody's asking for him
to be released,
including the governor,
including the DA,
and it does look like
the judge does have
some type of bias against him. All those people could
overrule the judge, so I don't want to hear it. How serious
are y'all about getting Meek Mill out of jail, Mr.
Governor and everything? Because y'all could all overrule
the judge. Well, right now they have to appeal to the Pennsylvania
Supreme Court and that's how they're going to try to
secure his release. I'm sure there's a lot
of paperwork and things that have to happen. They
can't just say, release him. So now
they have to do an appeal to the Supreme Court in
Pennsylvania. Well, there's nothing Meek can do at this point but his time.
Read more books, work out, come out a better human being.
Right.
All right, now let's talk about Nicki Minaj.
Congratulations to her.
She's the first female rapper to have all her studio albums sell at least 5 million copies worldwide.
I'll drop on the clues box for Nicki Minaj.
So that's three studio albums that she has.
They've all sold more than five million
copies. And congratulations to
Drake as well. He's the first lead solo
male artist to have two number one songs
for ten straight weeks, according to
Billboard. So that's for God's plan.
One Dance did that as well back in 2016.
We'll drop on the Clues Bombs for Aubrey.
He also has some new music
coming out because he said you could tell by the bags under
his eyes. So I guess that new album's coming soon.
It amazes me.
It amazes me.
Like, this is really, and I'm being dead serious,
it amazes me that people have not gotten tired of Drake's music.
It's been almost a decade.
I feel like he's taking a break.
And he also took kind of a little break for a second, too.
Not really.
I feel like.
We've seen stars like that burn out.
Like, think of some of the biggest stars in the world,
and they don't have these kind of long runs.
This is very impressive.
That's good and he knows how to get
what's hot right now too.
That's important. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee
and that is your Rumor Report. Thank you, Miss Yee.
Charlamagne, who you giving that dog to?
I need Cassandra Damper to come to the front of the congregation.
We like to have a whirl with her.
Kids, this is why you don't play with guns.
Okay? All right.
We'll get into that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Charlemagne, say the gang.
Don't get out of shape.
Charlemagne.
You are a donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkey of the Day does not discriminate.
I might not have the song of the day,
but I got the donkey of the day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the hee-haw.
Yeah, it's a breakfast club, bitch.
Who's donkey of the day today?
Well, Ed Sheeran, donkey of the day for Tuesday, April the 3rd, right?
Yeah, Tuesday, April 3rd.
Goes to a young 26-year-old woman from Houston named Cassandra Damper.
Now, sometimes I read these stories, and I think to myself,
the rest of America is trying to catch up
to the Bronx and all of Florida
when it comes to crazy.
Because as your Uncle Sharla always tells you,
the craziest people come from the Bronx
and all of Florida.
But Cassandra is crazy as hell.
Let me tell you something, man.
I don't play with guns, okay?
There's two reasons I don't play with guns.
One, because I was always taught at a young age
from my father and every other older man
in my neighborhood,
don't pull your gun out unless you plan to use it.
Or you're cleaning it. Simple.
Salute to everyone who has ever cleaned their pistol
while listening to Carl Thomas' emotional album.
But anybody who owns a gun and is serious about gun ownership
knows you only pull your gun out when you are cleaning it
and when you plan to use it.
The other reason I don't play with guns is because of the wise words
of Raekwon the Chef that he spoke at the end of Impossible from the Wu-Tang Forever album.
Can we play a little clip of that, please?
When you play with guns, son, that causes the conflict of you going against your own.
Now that one line, that one bar, when you play with guns, son,
that causes the conflict of you going against your own.
I wasn't even sure what that meant when I was younger,
but I do know with that jewel and the jewel of older brothers around me, I didn't
play with guns. Okay? I'm pretty sure that
Raekwon line means stop playing with guns because you end up
shooting or killing your own, and that's
exactly what happened in this situation with Cassandra
Damper. Would you like more details?
Well, let's go to KPRC. Click to Houston
for the report. Houston police say they're investigating
this as an accidental shooting, but ultimately
it will be left up to a grand jury to decide.
Surveillance video shows the group sitting inside a car outside the then-closed Valero
gas station for several minutes when suddenly the doors fly open and two people jump out.
This video, streamed live on Facebook, shows what happened inside the vehicle. You see a man in the
backseat put a gun on the armrest. Then 25-year-old Cassandra Damper pulls another gun, waving it in
front of the cell phone camera. Devin Holmes Cassandra Damper pulls another gun, waving it in front of
the cell phone camera. Devin Holmes, sitting in the driver's seat, makes it clear he's uncomfortable.
And then Devin Holmes, shot in the head. Police arrested Damper, charging her with tampering with
evidence when they say she tried to wipe gunshot residue from her hands. Cassandra Damper made her
$2,500 bond. She is due back in court. Yes, Cassandra was sitting in the passenger seat of a Mercury Grand Marquis.
I think it's a Grand Marquis.
Looks like it. Playing with a gun.
Accidentally shot 26-year-old Devin Holmes.
Now Devin is laid up in the hospital in critical
condition. Let me tell you something, man.
Mercury is in nigger grade.
Alright, the past couple weeks, niggers
have been niggering at levels I have never seen before.
Full moon was out all weekend.
And when it's a full moon, some people worry about werewolves.
Not me.
I worry about were-niggas.
All right?
Now, for whatever reason, people was passing this video around on social media
because, of course, like every other tragedy that happened in the hood,
they had their social media going.
This happened on Facebook Live.
I didn't watch this video.
Why would I?
I don't put things like this in my spirit.
But I will play you all the audio of this situation
because I want you all to hear the last words
Devin Holmes probably heard.
Can you just play it real quick?
You see what we do in the line, asshole?
Hey, man.
We draw down.
You're making me nervous.
We draw down on them hoes.
I don't know clip, bud.
Hey, where you from again?
Say something, bitch.
Ooh.
Ooh. Ooh. No clip, bud. And where you from again? Say something, bitch. Can you imagine the last few words you hear on this planet?
Are we draw down on you lying assholes?
You're making him nervous.
Say something, bitch.
I know Houston police are treating this as an accident
and they are charging Damper with tampering or fabricating evidence
because she allegedly attempted to wipe off the gun residue on her hands.
But I think the grand jury should charge her with actually shooting this man.
She was talking all that tough talk, showing off for Facebook, trolling, okay?
That's when clout chasing goes wrong.
You on Facebook, you know, Facebook Live showing off for your followers, okay?
She threatened him, and it was premeditated because she said verbatim,
you see what we do to you lying assholes?
We draw down on them hoes, okay? She cocked the gun, pointed it at him, and said,atim, you see what we do to you lying assholes? We draw down on them hoes, okay?
She cocked the gun, pointed it at him,
and said, say something, bitch.
All right, that ain't no accident.
All right, she playfully shot someone on purpose.
F that.
She goes to court today.
I hope the grand jury hammers her,
and I hope she gets charged with shooting this man.
Let's hear the clip again, please.
Let's play it one more time.
Play the clip one more time.
You see what we doing to lying assholes?
Hey, man.
We draw down. You're making me nervous. We draw down on them hoes. F*** that little again, please. Play the clip one more time. You see what we do in the line, asshole? Hey, man. We draw down.
You're making me nervous.
We draw down on them hoes.
That's not no clip, bud.
Hey, where you from again?
Say something, bitch.
Grand jury got a charger, B.
Grand jury got to throw the book at it.
The main problem with a lot of people nowadays is that everybody playing.
Okay, I love playing around.
I just don't like playing with the things y'all play with because the things y'all play with are not a
game all right the streets are real guns are real gangs are real life is real most importantly
death is real but this digital world makes everything feel like some type of virtual reality
okay but that internet illusion that digital dream it gets shattered when things like this
happen okay why does it have to get to this for people to realize, oh, shoot, it really is consequences and repercussions to my actions, okay?
Cassandra Damper is in this situation because she was showing off on Facebook Live with a gun, which has become such a normalized thing, all right?
Flashing your guns on social media is just as normal as a fashion over ad.
And I have said before that I often want to see someone accidentally get shot.
I have said that on this show.
I just wish every now and then when these kids are playing with guns,
waving them around on camera, on social media,
that they accidentally shoot themselves or somebody.
Because in life, someone has to die in order for others to live.
The only way people are going to learn that you can't do these things
is when they see consequences like this. So I pray for Devin Holmes. I pray he doesn't die and I pray he doesn't live his life
as a vegetable. I pray the last words that he hears on this planet aren't, say something, bitch.
All right. But I do hope that charges are bought against Cassandra Damper. And for everybody
thinks this is, for everybody that who thinks this is funny. All right?
Let me stress this one more time.
For everybody who thinks this is funny,
just remember online,
everything is funny as long as it's happening to somebody else.
Be careful,
because it could be your turn next.
Please give Cassandra Dampo.
As a matter of fact,
let Remy Ma tell Cassandra Dampo.
Let Remy Ma give Cassandra Dampo
the biggest hee-haw, please.
Hee-haw, hee-haw. please. Hee-haw. Hee-haw.
You stupid mother f***er.
You dumb.
Couldn't even get my thoughts together on what kind of donkey I wanted to get.
That's so crazy.
Right.
That is crazy.
Dude in the back talking about it.
It ain't got no clip in it.
Nah.
She cock it and there's a bullet in that chain.
Oh, my.
Clearly one in the chain.
Not play around.
There wasn't one in the chain, but she cocked it.
When she cocked it, I mean, she pulled the gun.
Oh, yeah, because the bullet would have flew out of it.
Yeah.
What do you think she should be charged with? I don't know. Something. She cocked him. When she cocked him, she pulled the gun. Oh, yeah, because the bullet would have flew out of his hand. What do you think
she should be charged with?
I don't know.
Something.
Yeah, definitely.
Shooting somebody.
That's so reckless.
What's the charge?
What do they call it
when you shoot somebody?
Manslaughter?
No, because he ain't dead yet.
I don't know.
She should be charged
with something.
Yeah, something.
Shooting the person.
That's what she should be charged with.
Attempted murder?
Yeah.
Something.
It could be assaulting
a guy with an attempt to kill.
Goodness gracious.
All right.
Well, thank you for that.
And he upgraded the murder if he dies.
Donkey of the day.
All right?
All right.
All right.
We'll be back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I don't know.
What's going on with you two?
You saw how weird he got just now?
Did you see that?
I'm glad I was the only person who noticed that.
What's wrong with you?
We'll be back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Are you ready?
It's time to shoot your shot.
With the Breakfast Club.
You lose your one chance. Don't mess it up.
Mess it up. Mess it up.
We got Jalen on the line. Jalen, good morning.
Hey, how's it going, guys? Now, who do you want to shoot your shot with, Jalen?
This girl named Vanessa.
Tell us about this.
What happened?
All right, so it's kind of a funny story.
Me and my girlfriend went to my best friend Moe's. We went to his wedding.
Uh-huh.
And I guess I got kind of tipsy,
and I was hitting on one of the bridesmaids,
who ended up being Vanessa.
So me and my girl broke it off.
So wait, you went to a wedding with your
girlfriend, right? And you
hit on a bridesmaid while your girlfriend was
at the wedding with you. Jesus Christ, how much did you
have to drink?
I was a little tipsy.
It was playful flirting, I thought.
But she didn't see it that way, so we actually
ended up breaking up.
Wow. You think? I mean...
So do you want to shoot your shot
with your girlfriend and try to get back with her?
No, I'm trying to...
I'm trying to get with Vanessa.
I feel like we had to connect to me and Vanessa.
This is so messed up. If Vanessa sees the red flags,
I'm hearing. When you go to a wedding
with your girl, the wedding is supposed to make you be like,
damn, I can't wait till me and you do this one day.
Right.
Your punk ass went there and flirted with the bridesmaid.
Now you want to holler at the bridesmaid.
Man.
That's a red flag.
Do you even know the girl, or was it just that one night?
It was, I mean, I think we met in passing, but we really got to know each other that night.
Like, I thought we were vibing.
Okay.
All right.
Well, we're going to try this.
I don't know how this is going to work, bro.
I don't even know if I could co-sign this.
So when we come back, we're going to call the bridesmaid.
What's her name again?
Vanessa.
All right.
We're going to call Vanessa when we come back and see how this works.
Keep it locked.
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 in the middle of Shoot Your Shot.
We have Jalen on the line.
He's about to call Vanessa.
Let's do it.
Hello?
Hey, is this Vanessa?
Is this she?
Hey, Vanessa, how are you doing?
I'm good. Who is this? This is she. Hey, Vanessa, how are you doing? I'm good.
Who is this?
This is Jalen.
Jalen who?
We met at Moe's wedding, remember?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hi.
I didn't even know if I gave you my number or not, but okay.
What's going on with you?
I'm good.
I'm good.
So, I don't know if you remember we were talking at Mo's wedding,
and I was just wondering, are you talking to anybody?
I mean, I'm not, but you are.
You got a whole girlfriend.
Y'all are arguing and everything.
No, me and my girlfriend, I went to the way we actually broke up.
Oh.
But, I mean, I feel some type of way on the low just because, like,
how you was trying to talk to me and you was there with somebody.
I don't want to sound rude, but what kind of being does that make you? of how you were trying to talk to me and you was there with somebody.
I don't want to sound rude,
but what kind of being does that make you?
If what?
You would do the same thing to me.
Well, me and her would be having problems.
It's not like we were already going through some stuff.
All right, Jaylen, Vanessa.
Vanessa, this is Angela Yee and it's Charlamagne and Envy from The Breakfast Club.
Vanessa.
My goodness. I'm on the radio, too. This is so bad. Vanessa, I want to Yee, and it's Charlamagne and Envy from The Breakfast Club. Vanessa, my goodness.
Wait, I'm on the radio, too?
This is so bad.
Vanessa, I want to give you a round of applause for having good old common sense.
That's exactly what I said.
You know what I'm saying?
You can learn a lot by how somebody's going to treat you based off how they treat other people.
How you meet them is how you keep them.
That's what we always say.
I don't know if I believe in that saying, but I do believe that if a person treats somebody else effed up,
they will treat you effed up eventually, too.
Eventually, it'll be your turn, boo.
Right.
Congratulations for good old common sense still reigning supreme.
He at the wedding arguing with his girlfriend,
and then he gonna try to holler at you?
Yeah, that's a little crazy.
I mean, don't get me wrong.
He was a nice dude and was a gentleman,
but that's just how I feel about it.
Why would you, you know, do that?
I'm still just shocked that I'm on the radio right now.
You're on the Breakfast Club, not just the radio. Did you hear him
stuttering when you brought up the fact he had a girlfriend?
Did you hear him stutter? She said a whole girlfriend.
Yeah, not just a half one. A whole girlfriend.
And I mean, it was arguing in front
of everybody, and I think it was because
that we were talking, so
I just, I don't
need no kind of drama in my life.
That could be you, Vanessa. You don't want that to be you? She said, hell no. Well, Jay, Jaylen, I don't need no kind of drama in my life. That could be you, Vanessa.
You don't want that to be you?
She said, hell no.
Well, Jalen, I'm sorry it didn't work out for you.
Jalen, bye, boy.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
I thought we were supposed to help.
Yeah, we were supposed to help, but not in this situation.
All right, Vanessa, you have a good one, mama.
I'm sorry we interrupted whatever you were doing.
Thank you.
Y'all keep playing all that good music.
All right, mama. All right. You don playing all that good music. All right, Mama.
All right.
You don't play that good music.
You play the same things over and over.
Shh, don't tell her that.
All right, that was Shoot Your Shot.
When we come back, we got the rumors.
Don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
What's happening?
Good morning.
Hi.
Happy April the 3rd.
Hello.
All right, let's talk rumors.
Let's talk Jay-Z on Letterman.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to him.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
So Jay-Z is David Letterman's guest on Netflix's series,
My Next Guest Needs No Introduction.
And David Letterman put out a preview of the episode,
and Jay-Z is talking about what it takes to make a rapper good.
Check it out.
I think Snoop Dogg has a great voice.
Like, he can say one, two, three, and to the four.
It's like, oh, my God.
It just sounds really good.
Or you can be someone like Eminem and just have amazing cadence
and, like, the syncopation.
Like, I sit back with this act, this exact, this back and this act, this Z.
And, you know, you almost become a percussion, you know, inside the music.
So there's multiple ways to be like really good.
Some people just have it all.
It's a science to rap and it's a science to interviewing.
That's why I love watching David Letterman sit down with people.
And I can't wait to see that interview.
Right.
So if you want to watch the whole thing,
my next guest needs no introduction is scheduled to debut on Netflix
this Friday, April 6th.
That's when Jay-Z's interview will be on.
Yeah, the first one he did was with President Barack Obama.
Yeah, he did Barack Obama.
He did George Clooney.
And he's done other guests on this series also.
There are three episodes.
Yeah, I got invited to one he did with Howard Stern that hasn't come out yet, but I didn't make it.
All right, now Tiger Woods, his ex-girlfriend has threatened him, Kristen Smith.
She had to sign a nondisclosure agreement to make sure she was quiet.
And she also got some money for that because they had a pretty bad breakup.
But now she wants to get out of that deal.
You can't just get out of there.
Yeah, you signed it.
Okay, she believes that he cheated on her in 2017.
That's what ended their relationship.
So he doesn't want to have that embarrassing PR
nightmare again. So he offered her money
to sign the NDA. So now
she wants to invalidate it. She said it's not
enforceable. I don't know what happened.
You can't just do that, can you? Don't nobody
care about consequences anymore? F your
NDA. So what? I signed it.
Now, Kendra Wilkinson also has posted a very emotional video after her issues in her relationship
that actually signaled that their relationship is over.
Her and Hank Baskett, she broke down in tears and said she will always love him.
And she said, I did everything I could.
So that's over.
But she has been heartbroken ever since.
You don't need to clown her for crying over Hank, but you clown Safiya for crying over
being robbed. Now, Channing
Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum have also
broken up. They released a joint statement.
They said, we have something we'd like to
share. It feels odd we have to share this kind of thing
with everyone, but it's a consequence of the lies
we've chosen to lead. And so
they said, we have lovingly chosen to
separate as a couple. We fell deeply in love so
many years ago and have had a magical journey together.
Absolutely nothing has changed
about how much we love
one another,
but love is a beautiful adventure
that is taking us
on different paths for now.
If you didn't release
a statement to tell people
that y'all was together,
why release a statement
to say that y'all separated?
I guess because you don't
want to embarrass
the other person
if someone starts dating
someone else
and then everybody
is always cheating.
I didn't even know
anything about Channing Tatum.
Well, that's not your world.
Yeah, you probably
didn't really care.
Name three Channing Tatum movies., that's not your world. Yeah, you probably didn't really care. Name three Channing Tatum movies.
Magic Mike 1, Magic Mike 2, and 21 Jump Street.
I knew he knew that.
All right.
Now, Birdman is speaking on Lil Wayne,
and you know the two of them have been hanging out
on several different occasions as of late.
And here's what he had to say about them repairing their relationship.
As far as being shorty, we'll make sure he's straight, we're straight,
and we're going to continue doing what we started.
It's important to me that I finish the way I started.
I ain't worrying about it benefiting me.
He deserves that from me, and I'm going to give him that blessing.
We got to get this together because it's affecting our kids.
His daughter is my godchild.
He talks to my children all the time.
It's just a weird relationship.
I respect everything that he's saying, but it's not a blessing that you're giving little Wayne. It's just a weird relationship. I respect everything that he's saying,
but it's not a blessing that you're giving Lil Wayne.
That's money he actually earned.
I'm glad they're fixing it.
I'm glad they're together.
I'm glad they can speak with each other.
Hopefully they're fixing it.
Hopefully Lil Wayne gets his money that he earned,
that he worked so hard for.
It's not a blessing.
All right, now let's discuss another issue
you guys caused up here,
Michael Blackson versus Gary
Owen. Now when Gary Owen was on The Breakfast
Club as Gary Takashi
6'9", he had some
things to say. He was going in on everybody
because he was in character.
You funny to Michael Blackson? Man!
He's one strict pony! You know?
Mother sucker! After that, what you got?
Tell me your favorite Michael Blackson joke. Rest my case.
Boom. What's your favorite Michael Blackson joke. Rest my case. Boom.
What's your favorite Michael Blackson joke of all time?
Your favorite one besides Mothersucker.
He ain't got one.
I like when he did the four to point challenge with Erykah Badu on Instagram.
That's not a joke.
That's a sketch.
All right.
Well, since then, Michael Blackson has posted,
that was very disrespectful, you wonder bread, untoasted toast looking beach.
Walmart version of Tommy from Power with a concussion looking ass.
And where you might hang with N words,
but you're still a colonizer and you will never be allowed in Wakanda.
Anyone that can tell me their favorite Michael Blackson joke.
I'll follow them.
Now here's what else Michael Blackson had to say.
You got me on with you.
Cracker,
honky bitch.
Talk about,
it's been hundreds of African movies and I'm not in none of them. But it's been thousands of white movies and I've never seen none of them. In fact, I love how Michael Black You want to be black so bad, don't you? Well, f*** you, n***a. Now say it back. I didn't think so, you wet dog-smelling bitch.
F*** you.
Michael Blackson.
I love how Michael Blackson started it off with a little racism
and then accused Gary of a little racism,
but then ended it with some racism.
We're dropping a cool bomb for Michael Blackson.
Michael Blackson crazy, man.
You gotta like Michael Blackson.
You gotta love him.
He said no.
Say it back.
Say it back.
F you.
All right.

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 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.
