Wake your punk ass up. This is Chris Brown. I've officially joined the Breakfast Club. Say something, mother... I'm with it. The world's most dangerous morning show.

Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, TJ Envy. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Tuesday. Look, I can't do too much inflection and stuff today because I got a wisdom tooth pulled yesterday. I was wondering what the hell. You didn't have no bass in your voice. No, I had a wisdom tooth inside of my gum. It hadn't came all the way out yet. And it had a cavity in it. I don't even know how that happened.

Oh, yeah, you got to just get rid of that. Yeah, they came and they had to cut me open yesterday. It wasn't supposed to get cut out till April, but I couldn't take the pain. So they cut it out yesterday. I actually got all four of my wisdom teeth removed at the same time. I don't think I got any more now. I think I'm done then. But if you do it, I feel like it's worth it to just do all of them at once.

It feels like it only happens when you have something important to do or you have a flight and that pain and that air makes you feel a whole lot more. You got a book coming out and you got to go on your book tour in the next couple weeks. And you got to do a lot of speaking engagements. A lot of speaking engagement stuff, but it's cool, though. You got it out. I did get it out yesterday. All right.

I got ibuprofen, 800 milligrams. Ibre what? Ibuprofen. What'd I say? That's right, ibuprofen. I'm just laughing at the way he talks. No, I think you thought I mispronounced it. No, no, no, just ibuprofen. I'm just laughing at the way he talks. No, I think you thought I mispronounced it. No, no, no, just the way you talk.

I'm just laughing at the way you talk. You got my help. Okay. Yeah, what you just said. You have Vicodin? No, I don't think I need Vicodin. Because I was in real bad pain yesterday when it first got done. When the Novocaine wears off?

I was cool by last night after I popped a couple of ibuprofens. All right, good for you. I went to go see this movie yesterday called Deu off. I was cool after, by last night, after I popped a couple of ibuprofen. All right. Good for you. I went to go see this movie yesterday called Deuces. How was that? A screening with Lorenz Tate making good. Lance Gross. See, uh, Rotimi.

Rotimi was there with his parents. Matter of fact, Rotimi invited me to that yesterday. What movie is this? Queen Latifah executive produced it for Flavor Unit Entertainment. And with Lorenz Tate making good in it? Yep. Oh, I got to see that. How was the movie? and Megan Goodhead? Yep. Oh, I gotta see that. How was the movie?

Oh, it was good. You guys definitely gotta see it. And Antonique Smith is in it. Lala's in it. Okay. Really? Yeah.

Never heard of it. It's not out yet. Oh, okay, okay, okay. All right, well, John Singleton will be joining us this week. Speaking of movies. Speaking of movies,

drop on a Clues Bond for John Singleton, OG film director. If you youngins don't know who John Singleton is, I'm sure you know how you're learning. I'm sure you know Poetic Justice. I was going to say Boys in the Hood for last, but yeah. I'm sure you know all of those films. Rosewood, Hustle and Flow.

What else did John do? Shaft. Shaft. I don't know if they saw Shaft. Shaft was good, though. Why wouldn't they have seen Shaft? That was a while ago. So was Boys in the Hood.

Boys in the Hood was first. Yeah, but Boys in the Hood plays all the time on reruns. Boys in the Hood is on VH1 all the time. It's on BET. They're always playing Boys in the Hood. I used to see Shaft all the time. I don't see it as much anymore. And John Singleton actually has also directed a couple of episodes.

He did Empire. He did an episode of Empire. And he did People vs. O.J. Simpson. What shaft are you talking about? I'm talking about the shaft with Samuel L. Jackson and Buster Rhymes. That's what I'm talking about.

That's what I've seen. I don't want to be seeing that one on TV. No, it used to be on all the time. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about?

Well, we'll talk about Flint. You know, the city of Flint and the water that's contaminated will tell you what they have to do in this lawsuit settlement for Michigan. Also, in Maryland, some parents actually foiled a plot that their daughter was

planning to do. Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Here's Drake. It's Fake Love. Get your ass up. Some front page news. Now, are you a Raiders fan? Nope. I'm not. Because if you're openly a Raiders fan... You know me. You know, my girl L'Oreal is a Raiders fan. Nope. I'm not. Because if you're an Oakland Raiders fan. You know, my girl L'Oreal is a Raiders fan.

She always has her Raiders jacket on. She used to fly out to go to the games. Why? It looks like they're moving to Vegas. So I wonder if she's still going to stay a Raiders fan. She was upset about it, but I said Vegas is fun. She's not even from Oakland, so why would she even care? Who did she use to date on the Raiders?

Nobody. I don't know why. I think her ex-boyfriend was a Raiders fan. And then she just continued it on because they used to go to the game. Really? Yeah. Was he from the Bay? No. L.A.? Mm-mm. There's a lot of Raiders fans. I don't know why. N.W.A.? Wearing the jackets? That's probably back

in the day. That's all back in the day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, they are moving to Las Vegas. I don't know how this affects you. I'm sure it was a tax reason why they done that. So if you're an Oakland Raiders fan, now you're a Las Vegas fan. No, nothing about Vegas say football town, by the way. Nothing. I don't think any Vegas has sports franchise, period.

But hey, what do I know? But I guess there's always a lot of people out there, so now you can go to the games if you happen to be in Vegas. That's another fun thing to do. I don't even like being in Vegas more than two days. Yeah, I mean, a lot of people have fun in Vegas. UNLV's out there, and a lot of people go to those games. Yeah, I can see that being a big deal in Vegas. Yeah, well let's talk about

Flint, Michigan. Alright, well in Flint, Michigan, Michigan is paying nearly $100 million in a lawsuit settlement. They are setting aside that money That's all? For lead or well, this is actually just to replace the water lines. So the state is going to cover the cost of replacing water lines

that are the pipes that connect the household plumbing to the main distribution pipe that runs underneath the street for at least 18,000 households. But get this, it's not until 2020 that all of those households will have this. So the way it's broken down is there's going to be a minimum of 6,000 households by 2018, 12,000 by the next year, and finally all 18,000 households by 2020. I mean... Are you going to give them back pay for all the years that they was drinking filthy, dirty water? It's disturbing that it's going to take that long.

And they also are going to hire an independent third party that's going to test and monitor a sampling of at least 100 homes for at least three years. So they'll be testing the water to make sure that this all worked out. I wonder what the officials in Flint drink. Like the people who act like the government officials in Flint. Bottle water.

Probably bottle water. Yeah, I've heard a couple of people talk about how difficult it is just because they can't even do basic things in the house without having water. Can the people in the city do like a class action lawsuit against the government officials there? I think they have been. Can you imagine how sick some people have been from the water? Yeah. Now let's talk about these parents stopping their daughter. Now imagine this, okay?

So this father read his daughter's diary and found out that she was planning to bomb her school. So he actually ended up turning her in. Now the police do believe those diary entries were not empty. She was an honors student. And this was in Frederick County, Maryland. She's 18 years old, Nicole Savario. She had bomb-making materials, and she had a shotgun. Really?

Right. How old was she? She was 18. Wow. Not to make this a race thing, but that sounds like white people. She had the date and everything that she was planning to do this April 5th. She wrote about her plans in detail. And they found a 12-gauge

shotgun with ammunition, bomb-making materials including pipes with end caps. They found fireworks, magnesium tape, fused material, all of those things. And they were all purchased legally, by the way. And she just basically had this planned out. Now, they said it's obvious that she has some psychological issues. Yeah.

So she is actually now going to be they have her in a hospital. They're investigating her mental health issues. And when she is released from there, she is going to be charged with possession of explosive and incendiary material with intent to create a destructive device. I don't know about turning her in because you know she's going to jail. Okay. But she has some problems, maybe making her go to a doctor, maybe go to a psych ward. know she's going to jail. Okay. But she has some problems. Maybe making her go to a doctor, maybe go to a psych ward.

But she's going to jail. This is my problem. I hate when people like that, they say that they have psychological problems. She does. You ain't had no psychological problems when you was doing all this plotting and planning. That sounds like MacGyver, G.I. Joe. You got a whole full-fledged plan going on over there. And all of a sudden, you got psychological problems? She might have had those problems for years.

That sounds like a great plotting plan to me to blow up a school. You had it all figured out, but now all of a sudden, you dumb. Now all of a sudden you got psychological problems? She might have had those problems for years. That sounds like a great plot and plan to me to blow up a school. You had it all figured out but all of a sudden you're dumb. Now all of a sudden you're crazy. No, psychological doesn't

mean you're dumb. Well, whatever, you're crazy. Now all of a sudden you want to play crazy? There's some problems up there. Was the joker crazy? Joker's fake. Well, whatever.

You wouldn't turn your daughter in is what you're saying. Not to go to jail. Man, F that. So what do you do? You just leave it alone? No, I didn't say

leave it alone. You take it to a psychologist. You take it to a psych jail. Man, F that. So what do you do? You just leave it alone? No, I didn't say leave it alone. You take it to a psychologist, you take it to a psych ward, you take it to something else. But she might have to do 10, 15 years in prison. By the way, every terrorist,

everybody that has done some dastardly deed throughout society, throughout our country over the years blowing things up was somebody's child. So it don't matter.

Yeah, but they were somebody's child, absolutely. Sometimes your child goes to school. It has nothing to do with you. Your child breaks the law. Your child got to go to jail. I understand. She didn't break the law yet.

And I think she was about to. I think she might have had some mental problems. The difference between having a mental problem and possibly being a terrorist and doing it for a different reason. That plan Angela Yee laid out just now does not sound like someone with mental problems. That sounds like someone who knows exactly what they're doing. Well, at least she's off the street. Yes.

She gotta go somewhere. At least she's off the street. Well, that's front page news. Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now.

Basketball Wives LA. Also, give you an update on what's going on with Fetty Wap. There was an arrest made. There was some back and forth. We'll tell you what's happening with the whole shooting incident in Patterson. Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.

Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report.

This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, we told you yesterday about the shooting that happened over the weekend involving Fetty Wap and his friends. And how three people ended up getting shot. Everybody is still alive. Now, eyewitnesses are saying that a member of Fetty Wap's crew is actually the one who fired first at Raheem Thomas, a.k.a. Fuzz. Fuzz is the one that posted the picture on Instagram with Fetty Wap's chain. They're saying the shooting started after Fuzz and his muscle team boys followed Fetty into a deli in Patterson.

And that's when things ended up getting violent. Fuzz pistol whipped someone in Fetty Wap's camp. And that's when he and his friends proceeded to jump. Fetty Wap robbed him, and that's when he and his friends proceeded to jump Fetty Wap, rob him and his crew on the spot. By the way, they're saying that they took about $450,000 worth of jewelry and thousands in cash. Nobody is wondering why Fetty Wap was in the middle of the hood with all his jewelry on.

Like, you don't have anything to prove. Like, why are you going around the wolves flashing chunks of meat? Like, what's the point? And there's video footage of all this inside the store, by the way, inside of the deli. They said a second gun was then taken out, shots were fired back and forth. Two of them landed on two of Raheem's friends, aka Fuzz.

And at some point, they said the original shooter tried escaping and the gun fired in his waistband and he struck himself in the thigh. It's not a fair factor challenge. You don't get extra lives and extra points just for making it out of the hood

with all your jewelry on. I guess it's one of those things. I guess it's one of those things he's always in Patterson. I mean, he's from there. He always goes back there. He has family there. He shops there.

He has family there. He got into that accident where he was riding that motorcycle there. He's from Patterson. He goes back to his hood. There's nothing wrong with that, but this is what you need

to learn to do. Learn to tuck your, put your jewelry away when you go to his hood. There's nothing wrong with that, but this is what you need to learn to do. Put your jewelry away when you go to the hood. It wouldn't matter if he had his jewelry there or not. They still would have started that problem. Well, Fetty is not going to file a police report. He's not even going to talk to the cops about the robbery part of the situation. They're saying his 75-carat gold Cuban

chain alone is worth $350,000. Yeah, that chain was expensive. That they took from him now. They actually also pulled up this old video footage from Sirius when Fuzz was leaving Sirius Satellite Radio, and here's what he said. Fetty Wap is a sweet boy. He's a sweet little kid, but he be up there now. Like I said, I don't mind him rapping about guns and stuff in his music, but when you in interviews, homie, stop that f***ing gangster rap, man.

You can't come out there when I'm out there. No, you can't come, period. It's over. It's over. It's a dump. You know what I'm talking about? You run past an RGF at the outlet. Now you got them little young wardies on your ass,

and I ain't doing nothing about it. You know what I'm saying? Now, the first time I actually met Fetty Wap, I was actually with Fuzz. Fuzz, he's also a promoter, and actually booked me for a show out in Jersey and had Fetty Wap perform. And that was the first time I ever met Fetty Wap was through Fuzz. Well, Fuzz has now gotten arrested after this whole incident. I mean, Fuzz kind of told on himself, though, didn't he? What?

When he got online posing with the chain. Like, why would you pose with the chain right after the robbery? He tried to say everybody was posing with it. That is true. It was a whole bunch of people posing with it, but it's not a video of everybody else holding a gun inside the deli while Fetty Wap was running.

He just got charged with the possession of a handgun. Got you. I just want to say why people think they're exempt from the rules of the hood. I don't care who you are. You ain't got no business in the hood with $350,000 worth of jewelry on. All right, Basketball Wives LA. The rumor now is that Dwayne Wade's break baby mama, Aja Metayor, is supposed to be joining Basketball Wives LA. We already told you that Evelyn Lozada is returning to the cast.

Now they are saying that she will be joining as well. They don't even care she would a baseball player, huh? Oh, Evelyn? It don't even care she's with a baseball player, huh? Oh, Evelyn? It don't even matter that she's with a baseball player. Just put her on basketball. But I guess she's probably the most well-known one in the whole franchise. Even though she got a child from a baseball. Don't matter, bro.

Don't matter. Before that, she was engaged to a football player. We need the ratings. None of this make no damn sense. All right, and DJ Khaled, he's going to be in Pitch Perfect 3. He has joined the cast. Have you guys ever watched Pitch Perfect? I've never seen it.

I actually hosted the screening for Pitch Perfect 2 last time, but it's a huge movie, so that's a big deal for him. It should be pretty funny. That's dope. It's an acapella singing group, and he's going to be joining. I don't know what his role is going to be, but that's a huge franchise for him to join. Definitely a baritone. Okay.

Yeah. You think? Most baritones are round around the middle. Alright, well I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Legendary. John Singleton. Yes. Good morning, sir. What's happening? Good morning. Welcome, welcome.

Now we walked in and we were talking about Fetty Wap. I know. It's just unfair. People that come from a certain place, they try to go back there and just show love to their folks. And then somebody just has a problem. I was saying that same thing used to happen with Pac. That's what happens with a lot of people from hip-hop over generations. It doesn't matter if it's, whatever, it's like out here, East Coast, West Coast,

you go back and then somebody want to like throw some shots at you or toss some smack, you know what I mean? You feel like you have to do something. And then they take your chain, wear it. Yeah, yeah.

And it's so backwards because it's like, oh, yeah, real, you don't come back to the hood and then when you come, you get shot at. And you wonder why I don't come back. And then they say,

I don't have a personal problem, but I did take a picture with his chain on and post it on Instagram. The dude that took a picture with it? He said he didn't take it, but a whole bunch of people were taking pictures with his chain on. So, Eddie, you know,

if he got real love there, that'd be somebody he gotta be like, you know what? Get my stuff. Get my stuff. It's a small world. Now, Park was your guy guy, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah small. I like Jay. And then bring it to him. Pac was your guy guy, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Is it true that you had a trilogy of movies that you wanted Pac to star in, and Baby Boy was supposed to be the first? The goal was he was going to teach me how to write songs, and I was going to make music, and I was going to show him how to direct and do it. So you were going to be a rapper? No, I was never going to be a rapper, but I was going to write songs. I do write a little things, but I was going to write songs.

I do, you know, I do write a little thing or something, but I don't spit no... How'd you meet Pop? How did y'all meet? We met through Shaquem and Latifah and the whole

Flevver Unit crew out here, actually. And there was a party for Dana from Latifah there, and he was there. And then I saw him again at the Beverly Center just walking around, you know, because he had just got then i saw him again at the beverly center just walking around

you know because he had just got off tour and he's like the mall yeah he was talking to girls so we got the need to get up and then um it was funny because i was going to do poetic justice it was like putting it all together janet was already in but i was like um originally ice cube was supposed to be in it and ice cube didn't want to be in a romance yeah and he was like, originally Ice Cube was supposed to be in it. And Ice Cube didn't want to be in a romance. Really? Yeah. And Q was like, I said, man, you know, chicks think you, you know, they like you. And he's like, I can't do that right now in my career.

I said, okay, all right. So then I called Tupac up because I had just seen Juice before it even came out, way before it came out. And I said, we got to talk about something. And then we just started really talking. Now, is it true that Janet, and this was always a rumor, that Janet made him take a test to make sure he didn't have any diseases? That was a joke between all of us on set because all the guys liked Janet. And I was like, saw the pot guy, like, you know,

because he was really, like, enamored of her. Everybody's looking at her. We didn't know she was married, you know because he was really like enamored of her everybody's looking at her we didn't know she was married you know and I was like I don't know if I want you to kiss my actress who knows where y'all have been you've been there you need to take an aid test so we just started joking on the set

because you know that Jackson thing is the like controversy out there and people just write about it and look at that 20 years later y'all still talking about it was it ever weird like directing Janet Jackson controversy out there and people just write about it. And look at that, 20 years later, y'all still talking about it. Was it ever weird like directing Janet Jackson and having to tell her? Because that's Janet Jackson.

We're friends. I mean, she went places in that and we were working on that movie that she had never been before. Well, actually, it had been before actually.

But when she was younger, there was Jabari. She was down in the 60s off Crenshaw. She was at Roscoe's, old Roscoe's. Not, you know, all these different places. Not the new and improved

Roscoe's. Yeah, yeah. She was like, so it was just all love, man. We were a happy family. We always hear stories that when you go to those areas, you have to get permission or there's certain people that you have to have in movies to make it okay. Was that the same thing? It's the same now. I mean, when you go to those areas, you have to get permission or there's certain people that you have to have in movies to make it okay. Was that the same thing? It's the same now. I mean, when you shoot,

you just have to, when you shoot in urban areas, you have to have love for where you shoot. Or you have to have people, it's not about extortion, it's not about whatever. You just have to have respect for the area. Like when we're doing a TV series called Snowfall right now in LA, it's all my folks.

It's in our hood. You know what I mean? But what we do is we hire people from the area. Just give them jobs. And it's just like, nobody's going to come around messing around with the folks because it's our place. Everybody here is getting a check. The dude that's just picking that stuff up there,

he's in a union and he's pulling down maybe two G's a week. So you don't have to extort me when I'm employing you. Basically. Yeah, but you know. You were one of the

original directors of the Tupac movie, right? You had that first, right? Yeah, one of the original, one of the several original. You actually wrote, did you write the script for it? It seemed like that would have been

your... I wrote Ice's script for it. Yeah, I know, but the people involved in it just, I couldn't deal with them. They were trying to tell me, me, how to make a movie about pop. And that was your guy. That was your guy.

But, you know, come on now. You know, really? So I was like. He's backed out gracefully. You do still have plans. No, I did not back out gracefully. You're going to read all the clap back. I did not black out gracefully. You're going to read all the clapbacks that I did. I did not black out gracefully.

I was like putting them on their backs. I don't even have to speak on that no more. Y'all just see when it comes out and you'll just know. It's trash? You didn't see it though. No, I don't have to see it. Right. Come on, you know.

He said, it's not me. It's not me. It ain't me. It ain't me, so I don't have to see it. But you did like Straight Outta Compton. I love Straight Outta Compton. You feel like that was a well-done movie. I love Straight Outta Compton.

Now, you're here promoting a new show called Rebel. Rebel. And that's on BET. It's on BET. We started actually watching some of it because we managed to get a little sneak peek. I ain't gonna lie. I ain't gonna lie. The first 18 minutes and 30 seconds, I was mad.

I was ahead of him. I was mad. I was like, no. Don't tell nobody. 1832. I said, wow. This is good. Why are you looking at the time? Are you looking at the time?

He was like, Angela, how far along are you? And I'm like, I'm over here. Oh, you guys got the link to watch it, right? My bottom line is, because of what was happening last year, I really wanted to do something bottom line is because of what was happening last year, I really wanted to do something where I see a black woman putting that foot in the ass of the system. That was my whole thing. I love seeing a strong woman as a lead. Yeah, and she's got different levels to her.

You know, she's not just, you know, like she's not strong. She's vulnerable and stuff. You know, it's great. Meth plays her husband. And and stuff. It's great. Meth plays her husband. It's great to see Meth. The cool thing about Meth was this was the first time he had a love scene.

He was just like, he was nervous at first. Really? He's never had a love scene? He never had a love scene. I was like, yo, listen. I want you to take her. I want thought about that. I was like, yo, listen. You want to get tampons? I want you to take her. I want you to take her.

I want you to push her up against the wall. And I want you to lick her neck and bite her ear a little bit. Because they're both soldiers. He's like a lieutenant. And she was like a gunnery sergeant in the Army. And he's like, he kisses her neck and bites her neck and says, Eddie, soldier. Right? And he picks her up and throws her across the room onto the bed.

And then all the girls in the whole set were going crazy. I said, okay, I think we got a hit here. Alright, we have more with John Singleton when we come back. Don't move. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast

Club. We have John Singleton in the building. Charlamagne, why TV at this point? Because TV is getting harder and harder to make movies. They're making the same movie over and over again. TV is like, there's so much to do on TV. I can make a movie every week on TV. Yeah, I feel like for you, because you've always made such socially conscious films, it feels like that has translated

to television now. Those messages are all on TV and not in the film world. In some ways, in some ways, yeah. You think it's hard to make those kind of socially conscious films now? Yeah, it is, it is, unless you kind of hide it

into something that's different. Like, Get Out is a whole other thing. He's saying a lot of that, but it's actually a horror movie and a comedy. You know what I mean? You got to hide it. What happened to those type of movies like The Boys in the Hood, The Poetic Justice, Higher Learning, The Shaps, The Baby Boy? What happened to those type of movies?

Those are the movies I grew up on. I don't see them anymore. I got to get back to making them. But right now, I'm going to come and do something within the next year that's going to hit in a different way. I thought maybe one did bad and now all the companies in L.A. are saying we're not doing it anymore. What's happening is they really are making, they don't do dramas as much as they do special effects, comic book movies. The dramas are moving to television. You make it for a certain price,

then you've got to market it for a certain price. So you don't see, unless you see a drama at the end of the year for Oscar consideration or whatever, then they do that. Do you like how TV and film has evolved? I love it. I love it. It's great. You see what I've been doing, you know, from me as a director working on from Empire to OJ. You know what I'm saying?

Like, you know, I'm able to do some different stuff, real different stuff. Now, at 24, you was nominated for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for Boys in the Hood. What was that feeling like at the time? Did it affect you? Did you get an ego or what? Yeah. I was like, you know, y'all? Yeah. I'm not. I'm not. I was like, you know, y'all can't tell me nothing now.

But the thing was, I knew I had a lot to prove. I was like, RSA, okay, you do something really nice, you got to go back to the craze. I went back and just looked at all these movies and just, I put myself, I just got ready to graduate from film school when I did Boys in the Hood, and then I went back to film school and started looking at everything and thinking about what I really wanted to do as a filmmaker. Was it hard to even get that movie done back then? I can't say it was very hard, but it was like, something was happening

at the time. Spike Lee was the only one out there doing dramas, and so when I went in as a film, when I was still in USC, I went in and started talking to executives, and I was like, my father always told me the best sale is to be not a hard sale on people. So I was like, blah, blah, blah. Like, this is my movie.

I'm a director. What if we tell you you want to do a movie? I said, well, we can end this movie now. I can go across town and go sell it somewhere else. They were like, no, no, don't do it. I'll do that. You know, so. You got a lot of hard time with that movie, boys and girls.

I remember them banning it for some movie theaters because at first they thought the violence would be too much. No, actually, they were going to because some things happened outside of the movie theaters in some cities. But that stuff happens every weekend. So they tried to make it. I said, no, no. Y'all not dealing with what's happening within the communities. You're trying to put it on the movie. See the movie, and then you'll understand what I'm talking about. And so people saw the movie, and they were like, okay, you know,

this is different from what's going on. All right, now you've worked with Nia Long, and there's been these reports that she's difficult on Empire. They said they actually had to put together some type of complaint against her, which they've never done before. Complaint? What do you mean? Yeah, like the hair and makeup people and wardrobe are saying that she's hard to work with. And one actor on set said he'll never work with her again.

This is all coming from sources from Empire. Did you have any difficulties? No, I mean, when I'm working with Nene, I call her Nene. I don't call her Nia. Nene. I call her Nene. I call her Nene.

She's 18 years old. She's 18 years old, so I don't know nothing about that. It's hard to have like, you know, you got some, I know I don't want to use the wrong terms, but you got some upper echelon vaginas between her and Taraji Dillon. We call those vintage vaginas. Dooled vaginas, you know what I mean? So, you know.

Have you ever worked with somebody that was really talented, but would it prevent you from working with them if they were difficult, even if they were super talented? No, not really. I mean, excuse me. Pac was difficult. Tyrese is difficult. Sometimes he don't remember his lines.

Tell me if I'm right. I feel like Pac was probably difficult to work with because he was probably rushing. Because he seemed like he wanted to always get so much done. No, no, because he was so talented. By the way, he was only 20 years old when we did that movie. Wow. And Janet was only like six or seven years older than him. So he's got to be the lead in a movie where somebody who has been a superstar all his life,

and he's just gotten put on. So it was a lot of pressure. I bet. How was Tyrese? You mentioned Tyrese. How was brother Reese? Reese is cool, man. He's like my baby brother, man. Sometimes he's on his own thing, but he's

in his own world sometimes, but he's a talented dude, man. He's a real talent. You see what he's doing. He's always working. Basically, John's saying, I look at his Instagram sometimes and say, what the hell is Tyrese talking about? Just like the rest of us do. Now, you directed Michael Jackson's Remember the Time video. Whose idea was it to have Magic Johnson and Chris Tucker as extras?

Chris Tucker wasn't in that, man. Chris Tucker wasn't in Remember the Time? It was Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy! Right. Yeah, Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy, man. It was me and Michael's idea to have Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy! Eddie Murphy. Yeah, Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy and Magic. It was me and Michael's idea to have Eddie Murphy in it.

And then Magic came out because he had just announced what happened with him. And Michael was like, we should do something for Magic. So Michael had a good heart like that. He was like, let's get Magic in there somewhere. Just write something for Magic. Just put him in there somewhere. Just write something for magic. Just put them in there somewhere. And magic was like happy, you know. When you direct an episode of Empire,

does that mean you have to go back and watch all of the whole entire seasons? No, no. I worked on the first season of it. So I went and Lee Daniels called me up. The only reason I'm in TV right now is probably purely because of Lee because I hate to brag,

but I was sitting on my boat. I was sitting on it so I know so I was kind of like janky but seriously I was on I was on my yacht I was chilling watching something and Lee called me up and said man I need you to come to Chicago I said wait a minute I did you have this I'm doing this show and then I was like oh because Taraji had already told me what she was doing and I was like

man you want to have a show if I hadn't did Hustle and Flow yeah yeah yeah just get out here and do it I need you to come here and show these white people what this show could be and I said okay

let me see the let me see the pilot because they had shot the pilot and I hadn't seen it but Taraji told me she was going to do it so he showed me the first episode and I was like

oh this is something so I went out there and they said, okay, well, our show is like this. I said, no, no, I'm going to show y'all what this show is. Because you wouldn't have a show if I didn't pay for Hustler Flow. So this is what it is. And I'm just dealing with

Taraji and Terrence, you know, we're a family. We just got in there. And that's the episode I put D-Ray in. You know what I mean? And she orders that hit. Yeah, yeah. What we just got in there. And that's the episode I put D-Ray in. You know what I mean? And she orders that hit. Yeah, yeah. What was the phrase in there? When he shot the dude, I forgot now. Smell the roses.

Smell the roses. Smell the roses. Smell the roses, yeah. And the dude sends roses before he takes somebody out. Yeah. You know, so like I said, it's just, I would hope that black filmmakers and other people understand, like, when people, like, in, like, mainstream working on these different films, they always make the same films with the same actors than with filmmakers. They're doing them because there's

a comfortability, and there's basically friends working together. And when we did Baby Boy, like, only Tyrese and Taraji were supposed to have love scenes and get naked. Everybody wanted to get naked. Like, I want them to go,

I want them to go ham in, anything I want them to do in the movie, they'll do. And that's what it's about. All right, we have more with

John Singleton 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 John Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got John Singleton in the building. Charlamagne? You got such a great eye because you got Lawrence Fishburne, Nia Long, Regina King, Ice Cube, Tyrese, Ving Rhames. Like, did you see that they had that star quality?

Because all of them went on to be huge. Taraji. Yeah, I mean, it's now, and now Daniel Monet Truitt. I mean, we're rebel. It's like, you work with people that you really just look at and you say,

if I could look at them and I can't take my eyes off them, I feel like the audience will feel the same thing about me. That's what I do. Is it harder or easier to work with new talent because of all of...

It's much easier. Okay. Yeah, it's much easier. When people done a lot of stuff and they think they, whatever, they think they could kind of like negotiate or tell you how it should be done and just like...

I think they know everything. I mean, like, come on, man. Let's go. Let's do it. Let's do it. But they should give input. Like, if they're in a scene and they're like,

I feel like my character would do this and not that. Yeah, but if it goes against what I want, then it ain't right. You know what I mean? Like, so it's like my... It's my instincts. I want, then it ain't right. You know what I mean? So it's my instincts. I've never made anybody's career bad. So I don't want nobody trying to tell me how they think it should be.

It's like, well, you're going to direct yourself for some other movie. Did you ever have to do that? Like, get an act and be like, no, you got to get out of here. No, no, no. I haven't. I haven't because people pretty much respect. They know who they're working with. I don't have to deal with that. Now, you also have this show coming on fx right yes snowfall snowfall

so you did when you did people versus oj is that how you got that connection with fx and they were like we want you to do something here no no i'd already i had already done um had the deal to do snowfall but then i ended up uh talking to some friends of mine who were the producers on on oj and they were like i was like i'm LA, I met OJ a couple times. I want to, you know, this has got to be black. You know, got to be a part of this. Dave Sipel just told his stories about meeting OJ.

It's funny, yeah. What were your meetings like? He was like a politician. He was a dude that was just like, he'd go out of his way to talk to everybody. OJ? Yeah. Trying to convince people he didn't kill nobody. He didn't do that, man. Yeah, he didn't do it.

He didn't do it. Black Superman. Okay. Did you see the documentary? I did. Did you see the miniseries? Yeah, I did. The documentary is what really made me for the first time be like,

I don't know if OJ did it for real. Remember he was going to do that, but if I did it, if I wouldn't do it, I was like, come on. He's about to get out. They said he's doing a reality show when he gets out too. Yep, and he's going to say like, you know that Kardashian girl is my daughter. No, he's not.

They do look like that. They do look like that. He's going to say, we were at the orgy. I didn't want to say it, but... Now, a few years ago, you criticized the popular studios. You said they refused to let African-Americans direct black-themed films. Is that changing now?

Well, that's because there were so many films that weren't directed by black filmmakers that were about important black figures like James Brown. And you see when something is truly Afrocentric and has soul in it, it propagates in the marketplace. Absolutely. It gotta be for the culture,

by the culture, man. Exactly. It's just like a good album. It's just like, you know, wow, oh my God, it's so real. It's so authentic.

Well, you're not gonna get that from somebody that is not from that. There's no way you're going to get that. What did you think of Nate Parker's movie, Birth of a Nation? I loved it. I thought it was good. I was surprised it didn't get a lot of,

a lot of people really didn't support it like I feel like they did. We know why. I knew the white man was going to shut that one down. Why do you think they didn't? It was a lot of, they created a lot of controversy behind it and had people feel like, well, because they felt like they couldn't support him, they wouldn't support the movie.

That's really what it came down to. Why do you think that is for? Because I feel like it was a black liberation movie. It was a story about black liberation, which was Nat Turner. And then it was a black liberation movie because he raised $7.5 million of his own money to make it. They can't allow that to happen. Now, what do you think?

After the events of what happened in Dallas when that dude went crazy and started shooting the cops at the Black Lives Matter thing, the movie, they were going to kill the movie. They killed the movie. And the bad thing is, black people, they fell for the Okie Doke. That is the same damn thing!

They're like, oh, he raped somebody. He actually got it. They definitely put that controversy out there to deter people from wanting to see it. Yeah. What do you tell all these young filmmakers that are coming up? Obviously, it's different nowadays because people have access to, like, their cell phones, all kinds of different software that they can actually do things that's not as expensive as it was. What do you tell these young filmmakers to try to stand out or aspiring filmmakers?

Just to stay true to themselves and really, themselves and really do what they're passionate about, not to try to please somebody else. Even if you do something that you think only you like or you and your folks will like, then that's what you should do. What's your favorite John Singleton movie? I mean, Baby Boy really is one of my favorites, but it's not all or what, you know, everything. You know what I'm saying?

I was actually trying to offend black people, but everybody laughed at all the stuff. It didn't work because it's like, you know, it's like you got a good-looking dude doing all these bad things, but he looks good, so people are like, oh, man, you know. Where did you get that inspiration from? You were never like that, were you?

No, no. Okay, just checking. Yeah, I don't think it was a fact I think it was honest Right It was honest We all know a guy like that You knew you was in that situation I'm on these streets telling these hoes the truth

I lied to you because I care about your feelings Yeah, right Somebody just said that last week on Instagram I say that everywhere Who was saying that? Somebody from I remember these dudes Oh, that was Kurt from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta

He said I lied to you because I love you Yeah Oh People just coming to me I remember these dudes. Oh, that was Kurt from Love and Hip Hop Atlanta. He said, I love you because I love you. Yeah. Oh. People, dudes just come up to me and say, why you put that in the movie? My girl slapped me after we came out the movie. That's an age-old debate, though. That's what I'm saying.

And I'm going to tell you what else is in that movie. After they got into that little altercation, and you laid her down and her out. I did that last night. And my wife was arguing like, we can't go to sleep. And don't ask for nothing else. Just get out and go to sleep. Good night, babe. That's it. Well, we appreciate you joining us. Oh, yeah. It's good to be here.

John Singleton, the legend. Get out, Rebel. Well, you'll be on the edge of your seat just like Andy was when something happened. Tonight at what time? I think it comes on here at 10 o'clock. 10 o'clock. On BET. We change BET up.

Hey, everybody out there, when you watch this John Singleton, when you watch Rebel, before you watch it in the daytime, set your DVRs in the morning so you have it. So you have it. You know what I mean?

And turn the TV on and everything because it's just like the box office. You go the first night to see the movie or the first weekend, you got to watch this first episode so we can do real stuff, real black stuff on TV. That's what I want. You know what I mean?

Damn right. And anybody hit me up at John Singleton on IG because I'm always on there feeling like stuff. Don't ask me for a role or send me a script. If you want to holler at me, holler at me. You never discovered anybody on Instagram? One person. There's one person that's in Rebel called Juwan Jones.

He's a funny dude. But he's not funny in the show, though. All right, so you can ask for a role on Instagram. Try. Call him on his yacht. Call him on his yacht. All right. John Singleton is The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. The Breakfast Club. 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. Man, what do you do when you're a huge artist like Drake? You're about to perform and you get sick. Here's what happened when Drake was in Amsterdam. I'm really sorry to tell you that tonight's show cannot take place. Drake got sick. His doctor told him not to perform.

Tickets will stay valid for the show on Wednesday as he wishes to bring his fans the best show in the world. You couldn't tell me that before I got out of my house and got dressed and got to the venue. He might have had some of that weed from the coffee shop and it might have been a little too strong. I don't know. But you could have let me know beforehand before I got dressed like you said

and headed out there and all that traffic. Down parking paid for parking. Yeah, he should have let me know. He probably was trying to make it work. He probably was trying to make it work. He probably was like, man, I can't go out there. So he had a concert already on Tuesday, and then they rescheduled this one for Wednesday. So he's still trying to make it happen. So I guess he had those tickets.

Well, if people have to have kids, they got babysitters to watch kids. Took off your job. Bought an outfit. Now I got to get another. Can I wear the same outfit I wore? You got to wear that same outfit. All right.

Chance the Rapper is looking for an intern. He tweeted out, I'm looking for an intern, someone with experience in putting together decks and writing proposals. That would be an exciting job to have. We should apply for that. I would be Chance the Rapper's intern. Why? Ain't I paying you good a bit? It's free.

It's free work. I'm doing all right. What's wrong? It's free work. And then Chance the Rapper, you know, you can be involved in all kinds of positive things. You can be involved. It's like charity. All right.

Now, let's discuss this whole situation with Bernice Burgos versus Tiny and T.I.'s involved. Drop one of Clues Bob for Bernice Burgos right now. God damn it. Man, I tried to avoid talking about it, but we have to discuss this, okay? At this point now, apparently the rumor is that Bernice is dating T.I. She has since said that's not true, that they are just friends.

But Tiny had posted, somebody said to her, Bernice be all over your husband's IG. You are a strong woman, Tamika, because I would have bust tips side his head with a bottle of Hennessy. Now Tiny responded, I ain't losing no sleep over no pass-around bitch. Bless him and her too.

Well, of course, Bernice had to respond to these allegations of her being a pass-around. Here's what she said. Oh, pass-around bitch? Never been a pass-around bitch. Sad that bitches gotta really make up shit to make me look bad. I'm 40? Damn, if I was

40, god damn, bitch look good. I'm not 40 yet, ma. I'm just going to get this straight. I'm a very independent woman. For my supporters that have been there for me and have on my back, thank you so, so, so, so much for f***ing these haters. What does that even

mean, you're a passing around bitch? I hate when people try to shame people for that. You're passing around blunts, don't you? That's not the same as a person, you jerk. But anyway, now somebody else went on Instagram and left a comment. Sad thing is, she's always been a homewrecker. I know her personally, and

unfortunately, she broke my old boss's marriage. He left his wife and his two kids for her. She's a hoe and will always be a hoe. She needs to sit her old ass down already. She's pushing 40, acting like she young. So what? She's beautiful. And always making the same dance moves in every video she records of herself.

What does it matter if you're pushing 40 and you look better than the 20-somethings? What does that mean? Now, Bernice responded. She said, I had enough of the BS fake ass stories. I have to commend Bernice for not saying anything for so long, but I guess she just had enough. They was in her mentions crazy. She said, always been a homewrecker. That home been broken. And I've

never dealt with a married man in my life. So please stop trying to declass my character and my name. Here's what she said. Nobody breaking no happy home. Ain't no none of that. Like that's none of my business. Okay? I'm there for him. He's a boss and I'm a boss. People think it's this and it's not.

I'm getting it twisted. We're just friends. I need to cut your s**t. I'm not trying to say that I don't you know what I'm saying? That I'm perfect. But seriously, like, nobody ain't breaking no happy home. This is not me being the side chick because I would never be a s**t shot side chick.

Grand hustle. I don't know what's true. Listen, I don't know what's true and what's not true, but if this is true, this is Tip's greatest heist. Drop one of Clues' bums for the TIP. Tip ain't lost in a long time. But the question is, is if they were married and they said they took a separation,

can Tip date? You're goddamn right he can date, and Tiny can date too. We'll talk about that next hour. But, yeah, I mean, we are going to get into that because we want to hear your opinions. Because sometimes people are married and they're separated and they start dating other people. And is that the wrong thing to do? Because some people are like, well, he's married. You can't talk to a married man.

And other people are saying, well, he's separated. He's free to do as he wants. I remember getting on this radio and saying that about Khloe Kardashian, and that was, oh, she's separated. She ain't with Lamar no more, so it don't matter. Men can do it. Women can do it. You're separated, you're separated. Period. You can't. Lamar was on.

She was on what? Crack! Cocaine! Say it! Crack! Crack! Alright, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. I hate you, man. I hate you so much. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day.

I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one. Why do the lights keep going on and off in there? I don't know. I don't know what's going on. Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, March 28th goes to Detective Robert Francis, a 46-years-old NYPD detective.

Now, I know you're thinking, what did the police do now? What did they do? Who did they do it to? Well, Detective Robert Francis didn't do anything to anybody but his damn self. He was arrested and charged with four counts of public lewdness stemming from four different situations, and every situation involved him peeping into young women's windows in Long Island and masturbating. Oh yes, Detective Robert Francis was busted for being a peeping Tom.

Yes, Robert Francis wanted to get a little peep so he was going around looking in women's windows and bashing his candle and burping his worms, shining his own nightstick. Let's go to NBC4 New York for the report, please. The moms of Rockville Center are shocked that the alleged creep turned out to be veteran NYPD detective Robert Francis. Rockville Center's police commissioner says four times between February 5th and last Friday, Francis exposed himself to high school girls from the backyards of their homes. Got the attention of the homeowner by shining the light at the window. When she looked out, he began masturbating. Each time, the suspect ran away, but after beefing up the trolls,

Rockville Center Police finally arrested Francis late on Saturday. The commissioner says all four of the female victims were teens from the same high school, three under the age of 16. The NYPD has suspended him without pay. Yes, Detective Robert Francis. Some would say the pig was playing with his own pigtail. He was cleaning his own rifle. Yeah.

Okay? Detective Robert Francis was on the beat, beating his meat. All right? 46-year-old grown-ass pervert stalking low-high school girls. I bet you didn't even want to be a detective. You probably wanted to be a school resource officer or a school hall monitor so you could walk around the high school cuffing your carrot all day long. Do you know in Australia they call snitches jacks?

So if you snitch on someone, they call it to go jack on a mate. That had nothing to do with nothing. Just a little fun fact. Just a little fun fact, you know, because to go jack on a mate sounds a lot like jacking off. And that's exactly what Detective Robert Francis was doing. All right. He's being charged with four counts of choking the chicken. But Detective Robert Francis has informed police that he has jerked off in other jurisdictions.

Okay. Detective Robert Francis has informed police that he has jerked off in other jurisdictions. Okay, so it's no telling how many times he's played a little flute solo at the window of a young, unsuspecting teenage girl. Detective Robert Francis, I have never. Okay? I mean, I've heard of people saying F the police in public, but this is the first time I've heard of the police F-ing themselves in public. Please give Detective Robert Francis the biggest hee-haw. Please. And if you care, he's been suspended and they've

taken his firearm. His firearm is the least of his worst. Which firearm did he take? It's not the weapon you should have took away. NYPD. All right. Take his hands away. Maybe confiscate his penis. There you go. Wow. All right. Take his hands away. Maybe confiscate his penis. There you go. Wow.

All right. Sick guy. Sick, sick, sick guy. All right. You do know if your woman could confiscate your penis, she would, right? Every chance she got. All right. Well, thank you for that dog today.

Now, when we come back, we're talking T.I., Bernice Burgos, and Tynan. 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 Bernice, T.I., and Tiny. Bernice who? Say her full name. Bernice Burgos.

Bernice Burgos, at the real Bernice on Instagram. Has bought men joy for years on Instagram. Very beautiful young lady. Amazing. Now, explain to the people what's going on here. Yes, apparently, the rumor is that Bernice is dating Instagram. Very beautiful young lady. Amazing. Now, explain to the people what's going on, you. Yes, apparently the rumor is that Bernice is dating T.I. And people are upset because they're saying T.I. is still married to Tiny. Part of it is that people are used to seeing Tiny and T.I. together.

Whether or not they're separated, that's what they're used to. They just had a young baby, Eris. They just celebrated her birthday party and all of that. So I think it's probably what people are accustomed to. So now that he's dating other women, allegedly people are upset, but they are separated. Right, so the question is, if somebody is separated, is it okay to date?

If you're separated, it's absolutely okay to date. If you're separated, meaning that you're separated and you're in the process of getting a divorce, it's absolutely okay to date. Even if y'all separated or y'all decided I'm going to break up and we apart for a while, yeah, it's okay to even date then. But you know what the thing is? I agree with you.

If somebody's separated, if you're separated in a relationship or marriage, if y'all decide y'all separated, it is okay to date. But did Tiny not get the memo? Because she wouldn't have feelings. She wouldn't respond if it was cool. Well, she can have feelings. You know what I mean? Anybody would have feelings. But she wouldn't respond if it was cool. Well, she can have feelings. You know what I mean? Anybody would have feelings. But she wouldn't respond. By the

way, though, when you separate and you go on a break, you know what I'm saying? You might get you a little low profile, honey. But when you hop out there and allegedly you with the real Bernice Burgos on Instagram,

it's kind of hard not to catch feel. But does it matter if the girl that you're dating now looks better than your wife? Is that... That's irrelevant. That's irrelevant. That don't got nothing to do with it.

But Bernice do look good. Me and my wife look at Bernice's Instagram page all the time. Bernice is amazing looking. Now, let's be clear. Just like a month ago, Tiny had said

that T.I. needs to come back home to her. That's what I'm trying to say. She said he belongs to me. And I'm bringing Bern trying to say. I'm coming home and I'm bringing Bernice with me. And if you don't understand this, we just gotta figure things out in another way. Well, this is what Bernice said about the whole thing.

Pass around, bitch. Never been a pass around, bitch. I'm so sad that bitch has gotta really make up shit to make me look bad. I'm getting it twisted. We're just friends. I don't need to cut your shit. I'm not trying to say that I don't, you know what saying that i'm perfect but seriously like nobody ain't breaking no happy home all right so 805 85 105 what if you're in a marriage and you're separated does that mean you can date hello who's this hello hello hey what's

your name mama hey this Hey, this is Cheryl. Now, Cheryl, if you're in a marriage and you separate, is it okay to date? No. No, it's not okay to date? It's not because you're still married. Separation means, it doesn't mean divorce. It means separated. It's feelings involved.

Why just move on so fast? Shut up, Shelfish. It makes you feel alive. Shut up, Shelfish. Express my opinion. You're Shelfish. You're selfish. Shut up, Shelfish. Let her talk. like. Shut up, selfish. Let her express her opinion. You're selfish. You're selfish. Shut up, selfish.

Let her talk. But that's the whole thing. If they separated, they could separate. Was this relationship really real? How can you move on so fast? It's feelings involved. You sound like you've been through it, ma. You've been through it?

Yes. I know it. I can hear the hurt in your voice. Tell me what happened. Tell Uncle Charlotte what happened. What happened? I'm not going to tell my business on this in the real way. Just know that it's not okay just to move on so fast.

Did he come back on? Why you just can't wait till the divorce is over? It's not going to be that long. Did he ever come back on? No. Okay, well, he made the right decision. That's not funny. Have a good morning.

Thank you for listening. Don't worry about Charlotte. He's an ass. Have a good morning. Thank you for listening. Don't worry about Sharla. He's an ass. Can't do that, man. She crying. She crying. That's not funny. That's not funny.

Hello, who's this? That's not funny. Hello? Hey, KK. Hey, KK. Now, we're talking separation. Is it okay today if you guys are separated? No.

Why not? Okay, why do you say that? The women are not happy with this. Explain what you think. I mean, because you still marry. At the end of the day, there's so many men that's free and clear. Why not just get somebody who's free and clear? Separated is not divorce.

Separated is divorce. Separated is not happy before you get legally divorced. But separation also means you're trying to work it out sometimes. So you can end up going back to that person. That is true. Free and clear means free and clear. you're trying to work it out sometimes. So you can end up going back to that person. That is true. Free and clear means free and clear. You're free to do what you want to do.

You know what I think? I think people should have a conversation with each other and say, we're separated. And if you want to date other people, you should make it be known like, listen, we are separated right now until we get divorced. I just want to let you know, you should respect the person enough to give them a heads up. This is what's going down. I just want to let you know, you should respect the person enough to give them a heads up. This is what's going down. I think women should be real. That's true, but at the end of the day, like, if you separated and you want to date other people,

let's just divorce. Right. Have you been through that situation before? She has. You can hear the hurt in her voice. I can hear it. No, I'm married. But sometimes getting divorced does take a long time.

It does take a long time, especially in T.I. and Tiny's case. They have a lot of assets. By the way, I think everybody's getting too much flack in this situation. I think T.I.'s getting too much flack. Bernice is getting too much flack. Tiny's getting too much flack. I want everybody to have the same energy they had when they saw Tiny dancing with Floyd Mayweather

and everybody was like, T.I. and Tiny are separated. They're going through it. I want everybody to have that same energy right now. That's what I want. That is country. Keep that same energy because I don't forget nothing. All right, calm down. All right, you're not in this relationship.

You're not married to either one of them. Hello, who's this? Oh, my gosh. I have invested interest in Bernice. Hello, what? Bernice is all our girl. What? T.I.

Hello? Mine too. Yo. What's your name, bro? My name's Drew from the 518. Drew, now if you're separated in a marriage, does that mean you can date? Separated in a marriage or separated in a relationship? In a marriage.

In a marriage. Relationship don't mean nothing if y'all just separate. I'm talking about marriage, bro. See, separated in a marriage is a little bit different. Separated in a marriage, you two have already made the decision that it's you against the world until you put me six feet under. So, separated is really trying to see if you can get back into the fight. So dating, separated in a marriage, I can't say yes. I can't.

So you think you should wait until you're divorced before you start dating somebody else? I mean, I would say separated long enough that you're more than at least 30 to 45% I'm not going back. If you separated and two weeks later

you're dating somebody else, that's going to make a question mark for everybody. That's a fact. Now you're telling the truth. Now you're telling the truth. But they've been separated and split up a long time. Well, you know what? I feel like they break up and get back together a lot.

All I hear is T.I. in my ear saying, mind your business. But the thing is, the thing is this. I just want everybody to have the same energy they had when we saw Tiny dancing with Floyd. Okay had when we saw Tiny dancing with Floyd. Okay? When we saw Tiny dancing with Floyd, it wasn't all of this.

I don't know why it's all of this now. Why? It's always this double standard thing. Have that same energy. Whatever they was doing when it was okay for her to dance with Floyd, it's okay for T.I. to do whatever he's doing right now. 800-585-1051. If you're separated in a marriage, is it okay to date?

Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Yo, for one, you have to see me when you come to the window, so you better have the same energy. 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 separation in a marriage. If you're separated in a marriage, is it okay to date? See, I look at it if you're separated. Both parties are separated. Maybe you're separated because you're trying to work it out. You're trying to see if you date somebody else. Will you miss that person? So I think if you're separated, yes, it's okay to date.

I thought we called that taking a break, though. I thought when you're in a relationship or... Well, marriage is different than just in a relationship. Yeah, but separated to me, when I think separated, I think that they're in the process of getting a divorce. That's what I think. Well, separated, it could mean that. It could mean, let's see if we should get divorced completely.

Or let's see if we spend some time apart and we can figure out how to work things out. We don't know what it means in this situation. It could mean either. Yeah, when you take a break and you see if you missed a person, if you can work it out. Maybe even dating somebody to see if you missed that person. But I'm going to tell you. You know breaks in marriage, bro. But I'm going to tell you There's no breaks in marriage, bro. But I'm going to tell you what

People do it all the time, though. Yeah, people do it all the time. But I'm going to tell you what I really think. I believe you. There's no breaks in marriage. I think that if you are going to date,

you got to be low-key about it. Especially when you're a public person. I can't be low-key, though. You can. People are low-key all the time. But I just think that out of respect for somebody else,

just keep it low. Like, you are free to, I feel like if you're separated, yes. We have an agreement. I'm going to do me, and we have no intention on getting back together. Then you should be allowed to date other people, but I think you should be discreet. Hello, who's this? Yo, my name is Mayor. You know what I'm saying?

Mayor, what's that? We're talking separation. If you guys are separated in a marriage, is it okay to date? Yeah, that's what it is. There's nothing wrong with it. There's nothing wrong with it. I agree with you, brother. Okay. Thank you guys are separated into marriage, is it okay to date? Yeah. Yes, it is. There's nothing wrong with it. There's nothing wrong with it. I agree with you, brother. Okay. Thank you, man. All right. Hey, DJ Envy.

What's up, bro? I gotta tell you, man. Yo, you really short in person, man. I seen you at Club Addict. I was going to security a couple weeks back, man. In Charlotte? Yeah, I was there. Nah, nah, nah. In Philly. He said I'm short? Hey, I ain't gonna lie. You sound like you separated from your wife and you want to make a move with Envy right now.

I'm six foot. What you mean I'm short? I'm six foot. Man, why do you keep telling that lie? I am six foot. You're the short one. I am. And I'm a little longer than all you tall people, too.

Hello? Hello? Hey, we're talking about if you're separated in a marriage. Is it okay to date? Well, hey, you know, if I believe you're separated and the goal is divorce, then, you know,

it's okay to date nobody. If y'all plan on getting back together, then y'all need to be gone and work that out. Right. I feel you. Sometimes people separate and say,

let's try to work out our differences. And then you shouldn't date other people. But if you're separated, like, this just isn't working, we got to get in the process of divorce. But don't you separate and start dating other people and then you realize't date other people. But if you're separated, like this just isn't working, we got to get in the process of divorce. But don't you separate and start dating other people and then you realize like, damn, I'd rather be at home. I really love this other person.

I don't love this girl I'm dating or this guy I'm dating. I'd rather be with my husband or wife. I think every case is different. In some cases, yes. And in some cases, it's no. But we don't know what's happening in their case. But if they say separate, where they're separated and not living in the same house, I don't think dating's a problem.

Hello, who's this? Rara from Kansas City, Missouri. Hey, what's up, mama? We're talking about separation. Now, if you're separated in a marriage, is it okay to date? I don't think it is. No, I don't think it is. Only because how are you going to work on something if you're already

into somebody else? Right. Yeah, but I might start dealing with this other person and realize, you know what, man? I got the good stuff at home. Why am I over here doing this? True. True. You're gambling. That's a risky one. That's true, though. Okay.

What Tyler Perry said, Tyler Perry said you got your what is it, your 80% and your 20%? Don't trade your 20 for your 80. What's the 80-20 rule? Don't trade your 20 for your 80. Sometimes you be separated. You go out there messing with your little 20 and realize you got 80 at home. You're like, man, I'm going back to get this 80.

Now, what's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is I need everybody to have that same energy they had when Tiny was out here dancing with Floyd Mayweather. Okay, I want you to have that same energy when you see T.I here dancing with Floyd Mayweather. Okay, I want you to have that same energy when you see T.I. out here with dancing whoever he wanted to dance with. And the other moral of the story is simply this. Back up like the Buckeyes and spin around like the O.J. It ain't your damn business.

Alright, I'm going with T.I. I'm going with T.I. Alright, now you got rumors on the way? Yes, we'll tell you what legendary producer slash artist is now going to be doing a musical on Fox about his life. All right. We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Nicki Minaj has some new material out. If you guys didn't hear it, she's on a David Guetta song.

Her and Lil Wayne. It's called Light My Body Up. And check out some of her lyrics. I just started my sentence like a capital letter. Got bars for years, I hope you send me a letter. No, she'll never be queen, so now she got a vendetta. I ain't talking about David when I say I'm a get it. Fought on those bars.

I didn't get it. All right. Here's some more digs. And I know you guys saw. Fought on those bars. I didn't get it. All right. Here's some more digs. And I know you guys saw when she put on Twitter, Barbz, could one of you send me a list of all my opening acts I've ever had on American and world tours? Thanks. I guess that was a dig at Trey Songz

when Trey Songz was on The Breakfast Club talking about Nicki Minaj. Fought on those bars on that Getter record. That's all I know. All right. All kinds of subliminals here. All right, Fetty Wap. We give you an update on this whole Fetty Wap situation.

Now, we told you about the shooting that happened in Patterson, New Jersey, after an altercation in a deli in Patterson. Fetty Wap was there with his crew, and apparently he ran into a member of Fuzz, a.k.a. Raheem Thomas' crew. Now, apparently Fuzz and his muscle team boys have had issues with Fetty Wap in the past. Here's what they said when they were outside of Sirius previously. Aw, man, Fetty Wap, little gay a**, man. They out here blackballing us and s**t, you know what I'm saying?

You know what I mean? Fetty Wap no gangster, man. Fetty Wap is a sweet boy. He's a sweet little kid. But he be up there now, like I said, I don't mind him rapping about guns and stuff in his music, but when you in interviews, homie, stop that f***ing gangster rap, man. You can't come out there when I'm out there. No, you can't come, period. It's over. It's over. It's a dub. You know what I'm talking about? You run past an RGF at the outlet.

Now you got them little young wardies on your ass, and I ain't doing nothing about it. You know what I'm saying? There's so much I don't understand about these type of situations Why would you want to harm the dude from the hood Who's actually got the potential To probably bring Well he said that he feels like he got blackballed Due to Fetty Wap

So I don't know what their situation is But that's what he just said in that audio So being that you got blackballed You gonna keep him from possibly putting some other people on from that hood And getting other people out of that situation? It's got to be deeper than that, because the first time I actually met Fetty Wap was with Fuzz. Fuzz, he promotes out in Jersey sometimes.

He promoted the party. And Fetty Wap was performing. That was the first time I met him. So they were cool before. It's something deeper than that, I'm sure. All right, so let me finish telling you what went down. Now, apparently, Raheem Thomas, a.k.a. Fuzz, who you just heard, actually got arrested on gun charges because he also had Fetty Wap's chain that was stolen on Instagram.

Now, Fetty Wap got robbed for about $450,000 worth of jewelry and thousands in cash at that deli. Eyewitnesses at the scene are saying that a member of Fetty's crew actually fired the first shot. And all the shots that landed in this shootout were all from Fetty Wap's crew. So the only bullets that landed, even though there was back and forth shooting, the shots that landed were from Fetty Wap's crew. So they did say there was more than one gun, clearly. And three men were taken

to the hospital from gunshot wounds. By the way, why are you in the hood at four something in the morning with $350,000 worth of jewelry on? $450,000. $450,000. Can't we all be smarter than that? You got to save for your house to put your jewelry in, but then you leave out the house

and be in the hood with the jewelry around your neck in the deli. Well, first, the chain was not worth $450,000. They said the chain was valued at $350,000. But you know when you buy a chain

and then the actual value when you insure it is always 100% more. It's probably worth about $150,000, but if he wants to wear his chain, he should be able to wear his chain. Yeah's probably worth about $150. That's still too much. If he wants to wear his chain, he should be able to wear his chain. Yeah, just not in the hood. You just got to be smart.

It's okay. It's just like going outside and it's raining outside. You don't bring your umbrella. And then you wonder why you get wet. He probably thought he felt more comfortable where he was from. He probably went there all the time. All right. Now, Pharrell's life story is going to be adapted for a Fox musical.

So that should be pretty exciting. And he's going to be working with Broadway director Michael Mayer, who actually produced Hidden Figures as well. So Fox has one that pits for this musical. It's called Atlantis. It's described as a Romeo and Juliet style story with a musical element that's inspired by Pharrell's childhood in Virginia Beach. I'm here for it. Pharrell's got a great imagination. Sound like something dope.

I'm definitely here to watch that. And your guy LaVar Ball is actually shopping some TV projects. He's trying to do a reality show and documentary, obviously based on his family of young basketball superstars. Can't understand the disrespect around LaVar Ball.

It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.

Hey, y'all. Niminy here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history,

like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a woman. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
