Starting point is 00:00:00 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.

You ain't okay. You look like you're having all types of problems over there. You look like you're dropping your mic. You're trying to get it together. You all right? I had all kinds of technical difficulties this morning. I couldn't log in at first.
Starting point is 00:02:54 I don't know what was happening. And then I moved my microphone because the light behind me messes up when we have to do Zoom videos. So then I have to move my mic back. It's just, you know, being at home, working from home. Alright. It's a mess. Like my hair. That's why I'm so happy that the barbershops have finally reopened back here in New Jersey. It's time.
Starting point is 00:03:14 You know, when your nose hairs and when your mustache starts to get so long that it connects with your nose hairs and it starts tickling you and you think something's on your face, it's time. You don't have those grooming tools at the crib, like to clean your your face, it's time. You don't have those grooming tools at the crib, like to clean your nose hairs and your ear hairs? You don't have those?
Starting point is 00:03:30 Well, you know, my father growing up was struggling with substance abuse and he had his own mental health issues. He was a good man, but didn't teach me those little tools of the trade like shaving and all of that good stuff like that. So those are just things that I never learned. Those are just skill sets that I never learned. It's a clipper that you can buy at Walmart, CVS, Costco. You can buy it at any store.
Starting point is 00:03:51 It's like $19.99. You turn it on as battery operated and it goes in your nose and it cuts the nose hairs. No. You know, I never knew people shave their nose, do that to their nose hairs before really. Yeah, you clean your nose hairs. Absolutely. Then your ear hairs. No.
Starting point is 00:04:06 The only hairs I trim on my body is my pubic hairs. That's it. Okay. So wait, you have to shave inside your ear also? Yeah, outside your ear. Your hairs grow sometimes outside your ears. I call it the old man ears. Yeah, you got to shave your ears.
Starting point is 00:04:23 That's usually old Caucasian men, by the way. Old Caucasian men grow hair out old man ears. Yeah. You got to shave your ears. And your nose. That's usually old Caucasian. That's usually old Caucasian men, by the way. Caucasian, old Caucasian men grow hair out of their ears. In Dominican. I'm not Caucasian, but, and I'm not Dominican. But, but, yes, you are. There's no but, but I have some hairs growing out my nose and my ears. Did I ever tell you the other time I had to take my grandfather to the hospital
Starting point is 00:04:43 because he said he couldn't hear and he was having all these issues and when we went he had like a ball of wax stuck in all the hair inside of his ear and they had to pull it out. It was painful. See what I'm saying? What's his race? He's black. Really? Yeah. Is that what we say?
Starting point is 00:05:00 That's rare. That's rare for black men. It's not damn rare. Get out of here. Long ear hairs are rare for black men. No, it's not. That's rare for black men. Not damn rare. Get out of here. Long ear hairs are rare for black men. No, it's not. He was also like 70 years old. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:05:14 All right. Well, let's get the show cracking. Today, joining us, we have Chloe and Halle. Chloe and Halle coming through, right? I love those girls. Grownish artists. Don't they got a new album? Yeah, they got a new album coming out. I love those girls. Grownish artists.
Starting point is 00:05:26 They got a new album coming out. I think it's called Ungodly Hour. We'll be kicking it with those young women today. And then we got front page news. What are we talking about? Yes, so Trump has activated the National Guard and we'll tell you what they are protecting. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:05:43 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, coronavirus cases in the United States
Starting point is 00:05:59 have reached a single day high. So actually yesterday we hit record levels that have not been seen since April. According to reports, the states with the largest uptick include Florida, Texas and California with more than 5000 new cases apiece. I mean, it would have to be a combination of all. Yeah, it would have to be a combination of all types of things. Right. More testing happening. The fact that people are back out in the streets because the states have reopened the mass protests. Right. Like it would have to be a combination of all types of things, right? More testing happening. The fact that people are back out in the streets because the states have reopened.
Starting point is 00:06:26 The mass protests, right? Like, it would have to be a combination of all those things. I think it's more... You know what? But they've been testing a lot for the last couple of months. So, I mean, I think it's the fact
Starting point is 00:06:35 that people are out and about now. They're going out. They're seeing people, touching people, you know, in close proximity with people. So, that's the scary part. So, what happens now? Do we shut the country down again? Do we go into country down again?
Starting point is 00:06:47 Do we go into a bigger recession? Do we, you know, people lose more jobs, more work? Like what happens now? No, they're not doing that no more. Or do we just got to fend for ourselves? Everybody got to take it on at this point. There are anti-face mask rallies going on. And one in particular, an Arizona councilman actually ripped off, he chanted, I can't breathe,
Starting point is 00:07:04 and then ripped off his face mask in front of a crowd, which is crazy. And he did apologize afterwards. He said it was hot and stuffy. If they tell you to wear a mask and they tell you to social distance because that stops the spread of the disease, having an anti-face mask rally is the opposite of all of that. So don't be shocked when you see the numbers spiking up in cases, okay? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:07:27 All right, now 400 D.C. National Guard members have been activated, and they're on standby now to protect the monuments, and that is under orders from Donald Trump's administration. They want to make sure that they protect monuments during anti-racist protests in Washington, according to reports. He did also say that activists face up to 10 years in prison under the Veterans Memorial Preservation Act if anything happens. Yeah, and this is what I don't understand. And this is, you know, America's supposed to be for the people.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And the people saying, we're all saying that these statues are not right and offensive. Wouldn't it be like, all right, we get it. Let's take it down. Why are we getting the National Guard and paying more taxpayer money to protect the statue? Well, we're not all saying that. Let's be clear. We're saying that not everyone. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:17 You're dealing with a 70 plus year old, old white privileged man. OK, he wants to hold on to the to the to the last remains of power that, uh, his, his ancestors have. Okay. And it's, it's interesting that Trump has done more to protect, uh, dead statues from people than he has to protect people from this whole plant pandemic that we're in right now. All right. In Milwaukee, this all started on Tuesday night as a missing person's investigation. And it morphed into a whole lot more than just that. By the end of the night, three people, including two 14-year-olds
Starting point is 00:08:50 had been shot and a house was set on fire. Police had fired tear gas and pepper spray on members of the community as hundreds of people gathered outside of a house in Milwaukee where police earlier conducted an investigation. They were trying to find these two missing teenage girls. They were aged 13 and 15. They had been located, by the way, as of Wednesday morning, but police are
Starting point is 00:09:09 investigating whether the girls were victims of sex trafficking. And they said that is something that they were looking into. The main concern, though, in Milwaukee is when these women, when these young girls were reported missing, they decided that it wasn't enough to issue an amber alert. And according to some of the members of society there, Amanda Schiller, a photojournalist, wrote that the police did show up once the community took the measures into their own hands. So they decided the police weren't going to do anything. Police officers said they weren't going to issue an amber alert. According to people there, they said officers have neglected the communities of color's needs and safety for so long that
Starting point is 00:09:46 the neighborhood actually created their own missing persons account. It's called Missing Persons Milwaukee, and it was created on social media back in February. They said there's a clear bias and selective culture practice when it comes to issuing timely Amber Alerts and missing person reports in Milwaukee for people
Starting point is 00:10:01 of color. So people decided to form their own search party and find these young girls. So what do we need? We need an Amber Rose alert or something? What do we need to get people? Amber alert. I'm talking about we need something specifically for black people. Oh, just for black people.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Clearly, right? We clearly need our own Amber Rose alert or something since they don't want to give us the regular Amber alert, right? Yeah, that's crazy that you can go to the police, do what you're supposed to do, your concern for your daughter's whereabouts. And they said sex trafficking in Milwaukee is something that has been an issue for quite some time, and the police just haven't been paying that much attention to it. And so according to their policy, they said there's a set of criteria you have to meet
Starting point is 00:10:43 to be designated as a critical missing. And the missing person's information then gets distributed. And those two girls didn't. But they did fortunately find them. That's because of the community. One of the mothers found them. Maybe we need a specific unit just for that kind of stuff. Just the same way we need people who know how to respond to mental health issues in the police department so we don't have to call them when we got to do wellness checks.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Maybe we need somebody that we can specifically call to go out there and start searching for those kids because when those kids go missing, time is of the essence. Yeah. Like every second counts. And they move them from state to state, city to city. Yeah, like you said, time is of the essence. We got to get those kids immediately.
Starting point is 00:11:22 All right. Well, that is your front page news. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone line to wide open. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.
Starting point is 00:11:45 I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?
Starting point is 00:12:18 Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app,

Starting point is 00:13:47 Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.

Like, everybody has to get permission to leave the house. Like, she don't play. Like, she's like, no, like, we can't bring that back home. We can't bring that to our parents. So, I doubt that.

Hello, who's this? This is William Martin. Good morning to you. Good morning, William. Get it off your chest, sir. Yeah, so I want to piggyback about the Milwaukee conversation that you was
Starting point is 00:19:05 talking about this morning. Yes, sir. I feel like the Milwaukee situation, we need to stop asking permission. If we need to save our kids, if we need to do something about the corruption going on as well, we need to make the difference. We need to stop asking for permission and start
Starting point is 00:19:21 doing for our family and for our loved ones right now. As Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, do for self. I mean, that's exactly what happened in Milwaukee. They first went and when the police went and do an Amber Alert, the people took matters into their own hands and showed up at the house and hundreds of people were there. Yeah, they burned down the guy's car, his crib, and started shooting at him.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Doing what they want, not doing what they want to do, asking permission to do what they need to do. That's the whole issue about the Milwaukee. They got fired up so much that they started their own and their alert to go find those kids. Why do we have to sit back and wait on permission to go find our kids? Why can't we just start up our own and do for our own now?
Starting point is 00:20:05 Why do we have to ask for permission like we're kids? You're right. I'm with you 100%. You got to protect your own. You got to protect your own communities. You know, especially if you know that we, especially if you know the perpetrators of said crime.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Like if you have an idea where these kids are at, you got time to wait on the police. Let's mob up and let's go handle our business. Like they if you have an idea where these kids are at, you ain't got time to wait on no police. Let's mob up and let's go handle our business. Like they did. You got all these guns in the hood for. Thank you, brother. You got all these. Go protect your own.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Hello, who's this? What up, what up, what up? It's Barry, man, 757. What's up, brother? 757, get it off your chest. Hey, I'm just, my thing is about the statues. Everybody complaining about the statues. My thing is, it is already in the history book
Starting point is 00:20:46 So what's the point of keeping statutes up Because they're actually just trying to reinforce white supremacy You know what I'm saying That's all that is They want a constant reminder to America Of the power that they had And continue to still have And a constant reminder to us
Starting point is 00:21:01 That we're under a white supremacist regime That's what that is That's all that is. That's all I want to say. All right, brother. Thank you. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, we are going to be talking about Camille Cosby and find out what she has to say about Bill Cosby, about her husband, and about the history of the Me Too movement. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:21:35 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 Meek Mill versus Trey Songz. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, so apparently Meek Mill and Trey Songz got into it, and they're friends. So they did immediately, it seems like, make up publicly.
Starting point is 00:22:02 But it all started with Trey Songz doing this challenge, Feed Your City Challenge, and tagging Meek Mill into the challenge. And Meek Mill responded because Trey Songz said, take some of them bands and accept the Feed Your City Challenge. Meek Mill said, Trey Songz, I donated like $2 million this year. Where are you at, LOL? $200K to Philadelphia schools, my phantom for less fortunate, $400K, and raised $50 million for reform.
Starting point is 00:22:28 Trey Songz, don't try me like that. Trey Songz replied, what, you feel attacked? I know what you do for your community. That's why I challenged you. I'm at everybody to do their part and more, you included. I'm gonna try to, well, whoever, but what I'm on, about what I'm on right now, feel how you feel.
Starting point is 00:22:44 The Feed Your City Challenge was created by the Ricky Davis Legacy Foundation, just so you guys know what it is. And that's a way for celebrities to give back to their hometowns. So then Trey Songz said, so Meek Mill apparently felt a way about me challenging him to the Feed Your City Challenge. He felt the need to tell me what he's already done. Hopefully not realizing I tapped on him because of how much I know he's already doing for his community. That's great. You donated, fam. That's great.
Starting point is 00:23:07 You help in prison reform. That's great. That's great. You gave your fandom. I'm simply trying to bring us together to further help our communities. You offended. LOL. You got it.
Starting point is 00:23:16 So, Mikael responded. Don't try to put me on the spot. He said you could have kept this in the, you could have just kept this in the comments. And I didn't feel your comment So on and so forth. Yeah, I didn't understand any of that Especially being that meek is on the front lines in regards to philanthropy We see what he does for the community police reform all that good stuff So I don't understand why Trey came at him like that
Starting point is 00:23:37 But I do like seeing brothers having a back-and-forth over who does what in the community No, I think it was a refreshing change. No, I think it was a challenge. I think what Trey was doing was saying, hey, yo, you know, why don't you use some of that money? Here's this challenge that we just did in Virginia, that Pusha T just did in Hampton. And, you know, Fab is going to do in Brooklyn
Starting point is 00:23:56 and Trouble's doing here. So why don't you do it? I don't think it was an attack. I think it was he was doing it to everybody. Everybody he's cool with. He was like, hey, let's do this challenge for your city. I don't think it was like, man, you got all the money. It's lost. It wasn't like that.
Starting point is 00:24:06 It just came at an odd time because when Meek posted that picture with him with all the stacks in his hand, people started posting this old tweet where he posted, you're lame if you're still on Instagram flashing your cash. And so people were coming to him about that. So when Trey jumped in, I just thought it was kind of strange.
Starting point is 00:24:23 But once again, I like seeing brothers beefing over what the, over who does what in the community. That's, that's, that's a good thing to have a back and forth over. Trey Songz said that he hit Meek Mill on the phone, both numbers I got. And I sent a DM.
Starting point is 00:24:36 He said, it's a challenge. Same way I challenged Mustard, Fab, Trouble, and they all accepted. We ain't even supposed to be at no kind of odds about giving back. He said, that's goofy.
Starting point is 00:24:46 And Meek said, me and Trey Bros, that's, it just threw me off though. So, that's what he said. And Trey apologized. He said, yeah, if you felt slighted. Maybe for the timing, he might have been really and he did say he called him and, you know, DM'd him and also challenged all these
Starting point is 00:25:01 other people and he might not have meant anything. Maybe the timing for Meek Mill just fell off. But it might have just been coincidence. It was just the timing. That's all it was. It was just the timing. And like, see for myself, I didn't even know anybody was coming at Meek. I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:25:14 He probably just popped up and said, hey, yo, with that money, let's do this challenge. And, you know, Meek took it a little differently. And Trey might not have known that either. He might have just been like, here, I just challenged all these people. Let's tag my bro in all right now Billie Eilish was criticized and that is for following uh Chris Brown Justin Bieber and XXXTentacion on Instagram so she ended up unfollowing everybody now she recently posted a message to victims of abuse this message that other people have been posting if I am following your ab, DM me and I will unfollow them.
Starting point is 00:25:46 And I support you. Well, she got a lot of backlash right away because she follows those alleged abusers. And after that, she decided to unfollow absolutely everybody on Instagram from that backlash. But then she got backlash for unfollowing everyone because they said that's an empty gesture oh my goodness yeah you can't win for lose that's why you got to stop playing to the crowd in order
Starting point is 00:26:10 to lead the orchestra you got to turn your back to the crowd man stop these people will drive you crazy they'll have you out here doing hopscotch all right or the poke the hokey pokey you'll be putting one foot in one foot out right foot in right foot out you'll be shaking it all about like stop following people do what you feel like doing, man. All right, and Bill Cosby's wife, Camille, did a phone interview with ABC News anchor Lindsay Davis, and she talks about everything regarding Bill Cosby's case. As you know, he has the opportunity.
Starting point is 00:26:36 He's got an appeal. And here's what she had to say about the Me Too movement and the backlash that they received from that. First of all, I don't care what they feel. Secondly, the Me Too movement and the backlash that they received from that? First of all, I don't care what they feel. Secondly, the Me Too movement and movements like them have intentional ignorance pertaining to the history of particular white women, not all white women, who have, from the very beginning, pertaining to the enslavement of African people, accused black males of sexual assault without any proof whatsoever. And by ignoring that history, they have put out a lie in itself. And that is because I'm female,
Starting point is 00:27:12 I'm telling the truth. Well, history disproves that as well. And gender has never, ever equated with truth. So they need to clean up their acts. It's an interesting statement. Women do lie, but women tell the truth as well. So it's really up to us to allow due process to play out and listen to all women, but you got to believe all proof. And she's absolutely right about the history of white women in this country. We've seen that from the Emmett Till to all the
Starting point is 00:27:37 Karens of the world right now. So I don't even know if it's something you can police though. You just have to, like I said, listen to all women and believe all proof. That's it. Right. Well, the Me Too movement, though, has been instrumental in empowering women to be able to speak out and have a space where they feel like they're supported when they say things. So I don't know that I would want to bash that movement because she said they have intentional ignorance pertaining to the history and so on and so forth.
Starting point is 00:28:02 But it is something that has been a pervasive issue that finally people are, you know, getting their due process as well. So if women feel empowered by the Me Too movement, that's important. Yeah, it's not a black or white thing. Like, it's not that easy. Like, there is nuance in these situations.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Women do lie, but women tell the truth as well. So it's just like, where do you fall into that? You just got to let things play out. You got to let due process take its course. And like I said, listen to all women, but believe all proof. Simple as that. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Starting point is 00:28:36 All right, when we come back, we got front page news. What we talking about, Yee? Yes, and let's talk about Ahmaud Arbery and these indictments. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. E.J.

What are they even replying back? There's like the mayor of that town, like the police chief. Are they even replying back to people?
Starting point is 00:29:58 That's raising all this noise and making all this hell? Yeah, I think they have. Making all this noise and raising all this hell. As far as I know, I think they did finally just fire one of the police officers, right? Is that correct? Yes Yeah, so that's a start, but now let's keep it going So that's something, because you got to think, this happened over three months ago
Starting point is 00:30:19 So now that people are making noise All right, NASA, in the meantime, is naming its headquarters after Mary W. Jackson, the agency's first African-American female engineer. They are renaming their headquarters. And so I think that's really, really dope. They said Mary never accepted the status quo. She helped break barriers and open opportunities
Starting point is 00:30:39 for African-Americans and women in the field of engineering and technology. She's one of the hidden figures, right? Yep. She's one of the hidden figures. All right. Now, three men who have been accused in the shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery that happened on February 23rd were indicted yesterday by a grand jury.
Starting point is 00:30:58 According to a district attorney, those men are Travis McMichael, his father, Greg McMichael, and William R. Bryan. They were indicted on malice and felony murder charges in Ahmaud Arbery's death. They said, we will continue to be intentional in the pursuit of justice for this family and the community at large as the prosecution of this case continues. Bury them white seeds under the jail. All right? Let's use them to grow mayonnaise trees.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Bye. They can go. All right? I hope they mayonnaise trees. Bye. They can go. All right. I hope they get charged. Well, they got charged. I hope they get convicted. Convicted. We need convictions.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Yes. All right. Coronavirus. Those numbers aren't going anywhere, right? New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut are now requiring travelers from states with high coronavirus rates to quarantine for two weeks. So if you're planning to come to New York, to New Jersey, or to Connecticut, they're saying that if you have a positive test rate higher than 10 per 100,000 residents over a seven-day rolling average,
Starting point is 00:31:55 so if your state has a 10% or higher positivity rate over a seven-day rolling average, then they are going to force you to quarantine for two weeks if you come here. I heard that. Now, how are they going to force you to quarantine for two weeks if you come here. So that's- I heard that. Now, how are they going to force somebody to quarantine? If I come here from Miami or one of those hot spots, how are they going to make you quarantine? Well, they said each state is going to be responsible for their own enforcement of the
Starting point is 00:32:17 quarantine. So they said there'll be public relations campaign at airports, highways, and other locations. And Cuomo in New York said that those violating the quarantine could be subject to a judicial order and mandatory quarantine and fines are $2,000 for the first violation, $5,000 for the second, and $10,000 if you cause harm. Yeah, I saw the fine thing. I'm going to tell you something.
Starting point is 00:32:38 They can easily track you. You think they're not tracking your black ass right now? You don't think they're tracking all of us? We're walking around with tracking hands people that come the thousands of people that come back from miami and orlando you think they're gonna track the thousands of people and make them quarantine yes no way i do they're gonna be sitting next to you when you go to the barbershop or they're gonna be sitting next to you when you go get something to eat listen the city got the city gotta make some money back so if they finding the hell out of people, they're going to get that brand.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Okay? I saw them fines yesterday. I said, oh, they're not playing. They're going to be on your ass. Don't try to put your phone on airplane mode. I see you. What? You're trying to put your phone on airplane mode right now so they can't track you.
Starting point is 00:33:15 They know where you at. I didn't go to Miami. What are you talking about? Now, you're going to have to get quarantined after she come back from her vacation. Oh, they definitely locking her up. I don't think y'all know. Did you see the video of what happens when you travel to Jamaica? I ain't talking about when you travel to Jamaica.
Starting point is 00:33:32 I'm talking about when you bring your ass back here. You have to get tested to go there. We're staying in one villa, so everybody in my villa is getting tested. And then if you do test positive, then they're going to quarantine you away from the villa. And obviously, if somebody does test positive, then they're going to quarantine you away from the villa. So, you know, and obviously if somebody does test positive, then we'll all have to quarantine. So that's what it is. But we all get tested as soon as we land. So there's no way to get around that.
Starting point is 00:33:54 And then you have to go straight to the villa where you're staying, where you won't be in contact with other people. You also get your temperature checked when you land as well. Now, where do you quarantine, though? Like, if you land there and you got a villa that you're supposed to be staying in, where the hell are they just going to throw you at in Jamaica? Well, they have places where you can quarantine. So they have places set up for you in case you're not
Starting point is 00:34:15 going to be around. Yeah, they do. This actually happened to somebody I know when they landed, and this wasn't even because she got tested. Her and her son, they took everybody off the plane because the rules changed while she was flying there and they had to quarantine at a specific uh place all of the people there in one space quarantine for two weeks together before they could even go to their resort but the way that it is now in Jamaica when you land you have to fill out a form before you even go and you have to do that prior to 72 hours and they
Starting point is 00:34:42 check your health records and all of that. And then when you land, they take your temperature. And then you have to go to a doctor where they actually administer the coronavirus test for you. And then you have to go straight to your hotel. And they also have an app that you have to download. Unless you test positive. All that for a little vacation for seven days. All that. You got to go through all that to stay by the beach.
Starting point is 00:35:04 You got a beach in Brooklyn, E. But from what I saw, from what people were saying out there that actually were traveling, they're saying that it feels a lot safer than anywhere else they've been here in the United States. But you've been here. You don't know who you've been in contact with. You've been out. You mixy. Okay?
Starting point is 00:35:19 I definitely have not been out and mixy. We do have a juice bar that I have gone to because it's a business that I own. It's a central business. And everybody has to be in there with their gloves on and with their masks on. So that's pretty safe. And the only other people I've seen is, you know. I hope that quarantine headquarters in Jamaica is
Starting point is 00:35:38 five star. You got Wi-Fi. Somebody in your party is going to end up there. Alright. If one person on up there, they all got to go. If one person is on the plane, they all got to go. We talked about it. Because they're all in vicinity.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Everybody I'm going with has already gotten tested. But you got to get tested again. You get tested again when you land. They stuck the thing up your nose? Yep. You lying, man. I heard it in your voice.
Starting point is 00:36:07 You lying. You heard it in your voice. They did. No, they did. Did you make a test different, though? They're not like the American test. It's the same exact way. To make a test more accurate.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Trust me, I've already done all my research. You know that before I decided to go. All right. But I think what is really important, though, is that, you know, for the people that work there in tourism, it has been very difficult. As you can see, a lot of people have been furloughed or laid off. So it is important to stimulate the economies in all these places, too, that we care about. Don't try to use that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:39 All we're saying is we just want y'all to be clear when y'all get there. Okay. I guarantee you somebody in your crew is going to get test positive for corona. How many of y'all is it? Four. Is Natina going with you? Because Natina's been out and about.
Starting point is 00:36:58 She's been in Atlanta. Natina Mixie. She's been in Florida. Mixie! I wasn't going to say it, but she's been Mixie, Mixie, Mixie, Mixie. Her wasn't going to say it, but she been Mixie, Mixie, Mixie, Mixie. Her passport is expired, FYI. Oh! All right.
Starting point is 00:37:13 That's from Paige News. Now when we come back. Too funny. Chloe and Hallie will be joining us. We'll kick it with Chloe and Hallie when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?
Starting point is 00:38:09 Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast Post Run High is all about. It's

So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun.
Starting point is 00:39:20 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 Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we have some special guests on the line right now they have an album out called the ungodly hour we have chloe and hallie welcome ladies hi before we start i do want to just say congratulations on the new album. Just before, just to get it out there, The Ungodly Hour. So dope piece of work. And we're going to talk about it because you guys touch on some topics that I can't wait to discuss.
Starting point is 00:40:56 Thank you so much. Yeah, that's what I was going to ask. How are you two angelic sisters? How do you have an album called The Ungodly Hour? Everything about y'all seems godly. Oh, that's so funny. So the reason why we decided to call this album Ungodly Hour was exactly that. I mean, everybody has this perception of us as being these two little perfect angels.
Starting point is 00:41:17 But for this album, we kind of wanted to show another side of us, show the side that people do not see during the ungodly hour. Because, you know, in those late hours, you're thinking about all your insecurities and your flaws and all of the bad things and the naughty things. And we just kind of wanted to put that all in the album and let people hear that side of us to see the layers that it is to be a woman, all it is to be. So, yeah, that's why. I saw you were originally going to call it the trouble with angels. We always like to mood board. So we like always
Starting point is 00:41:51 get inspired for each project. And so we put like four poster boards together before we started working and put like a bunch of like naked photos on there to show like us burying our souls and vulnerabilities. And then there was a phrase that we found in this editorial mag that said the trouble with angels. We were like, we want to do something with that. We don't know what it will symbolize for us right now, but we like it because we want to show all of the things people don't know about us. So it's funny to see how the album is eventually called Ungodly Hour and how that phrase inspired us so much throughout the eight months
Starting point is 00:42:21 we created this album. So basically, y'all, just the perfect balance of ratchetness and righteousness. Exactly. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. So we got to have some of that strength. Now, how is it? I saw y'all actually produced and co-wrote on this album, too, as well, like a majority of the songs. So was that out of necessity because you weren't getting what you wanted from other people, or was that always the plan?
Starting point is 00:42:46 Well, my sister and I, we are very big on our artistic integrity and musicianship, and that's always number one for us because we're music lovers at heart. Being women, you know, my beautiful sister is an amazing female producer. Most of the times we get in these studios with all of the big producers, Boy Wonder and Scott Swartz, and they're blown away by her tracks. And it's really inspiring for us to always have a foot in what we do creatively. It's very important to us. Everything that we touch, we write and we produce because it's our story at the end
Starting point is 00:43:18 of the day and everybody else kind of really just helps enhance that. But yeah, mostly this album was all done by us in our little garage. How are you guys quarantining right now? And how difficult is it to get out there and express and show your music right now? You know, honestly, it's been kind of fun and easy because we've been doing everything from home. You know, my sister,
Starting point is 00:43:40 she was going to be in London right now filming for The Little Mermaid and we would have been separated and we never really figured out how we would be promoting this album being in two places at once so I always feel like God's plan is better than any plan we could come up with so I feel like oddly this worked out and for like any of the virtual performances we have to do we do it in our backyard on our tennis court yeah it was like new creative ideas. So I think it's kind of been working in our favor.
Starting point is 00:44:10 I always kind of look at like the positive outlook of things. So how far has Little Mermaid got pushed back? No, I mean, I can't really tell you much. But when I was out there, it was so much fun. I mean, I was rehearsing for three months out in London. My family and I, we all went over there. Chloe was with me for a month. And it was such a beautiful experience. And so since the whole world is kind of paused until this all goes away,
Starting point is 00:44:34 I cannot wait to get back. Oh, so how close are y'all to being done, though? Like 75? We are, I'll just say we're not finished yet. Okay. There you go. I want to ask you, lady, since you are together a lot of times, do you ever feel like, okay, I need some time apart? And how does that happen, especially during quarantine?
Starting point is 00:44:56 Yeah, well, I appreciate about the two of us is that, like, we're two completely different individuals. Like, sometimes I feel like we're twins, but then other times I'm like, no, we're different. But Hallie's an Aries. I'm a Cancer. So naturally, we have, like, our differences. And whenever Hallie needs her space or I do, it's easy to communicate that with each other. You know, it's pretty easy. At first, it was hard adjusting with our whole family and five, but we still live with our family.
Starting point is 00:45:22 And just being in each other's space for like the first month of quarantine. So once we kind of got in the rhythm and the group of things, it got a lot easier. Have y'all ever not liked someone the other person was dating? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Strongly. That was a strong
Starting point is 00:45:40 answer. That might have happened yesterday. They're like, yes. Who is this? Tell us who he is right now. We want to know. Because you look too disgusted. We see, like, the best in each other. Yeah. And, like, we know, like, our highs and highs.
Starting point is 00:45:56 And we know it takes a strong man to handle us. Because our dad has kind of raised us to be strong, independent women. And we don't really settle for anything less than we deserve. So when we see, like, our best friend with someone that we think they could do better than, it's like... But it doesn't really live up to all that her glory is. Of course we're going to say something. And I'm the first one to say something,
Starting point is 00:46:18 because I'm very straight up, so... How are those conversations like, when you're telling your sister, like, look, I don't like him? Yeah, it's like that. Yeah, it's like, okay, I don't like him? Yeah, it's like that. Yeah, it's like, okay, well, this is not your life, and that's okay. And we really respect that about each other because sometimes you have to let somebody else do their thing in their life and let that play out. And sometimes you're completely wrong.
Starting point is 00:46:38 And sometimes it's like, you know, girl, I was right. What are y'all looking for, though? When you see your sister dating somebody, what are you looking for in that person? What makes them worthy? I just want to see someone who makes my sister really, really happy and helps her reach her fullest, fullest potential, because that's someone I want
Starting point is 00:46:57 for me. I want to learn from a man. I want them to teach me things, and that would be hard to find, because I know a lot of things. I think I'm pretty smart. And I want someone to teach me things, and that would be hard to find because I know a lot of things. I think I'm pretty smart. And I want someone who isn't intimidated by a woman's success. That would be wonderful as well. Yeah, that's the one. Because we're really, I feel like at this age that we are, we're very blessed.
Starting point is 00:47:17 And a lot of the guys our age aren't really, they have not gotten to a certain point in their lives that we have because we're very blessed, you know? But we also work hard too. Yeah, and we also work very hard for what we have. So sometimes you have to get a guy who's like really strong and is like confident and really supports you and doesn't have an ego that kind of gets in the way of that support, you know? Just somebody to care.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Yeah. All right, we got more with Chloe and Holly. When we come know, just somebody to care. Yeah. All right. We got more with Chloe and Holly. When we come back, let's get into their single. It's called Do It. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Do It from Chloe and Holly.
Starting point is 00:47:57 Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Chloe and Holly. Yee. Well, Chloe, now you're 22 and Halle, you're 20, right? Is that correct? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:10 All right. Like a week. Oh, that's exciting. So how has that been, though? Because we saw y'all like as young girls growing up and now with this album, just talking so much about relationships and being out with your girls and, you know, even sexuality. As you said, you wanted to express your sexuality on this album as well so what has that journey and that response been like for you the journey has been natural for us because we bear our complete
Starting point is 00:48:36 souls in our music and music is so therapeutic for us as we're evolving as young women the music will naturally evolve with us as well we We're very private with our personal life, but it's funny hearing and seeing how people will try to like puzzle piece stories together. And it's really fun to see how people can do that through the music. So I'm really happy with how it's being received. Now this album had people dragging,
Starting point is 00:48:58 they had people dragging Diggy Simmons. And they were like, look, he didn't, we don't even know if this song is about him and we don't know what happened. We know y'all broke up, Chloe, but we see people were going in on Diggy like he cheated on her
Starting point is 00:49:10 and he was hitting up her friends all because of Busy Boy. Busy Boy is dedicated to like all the playboys in the world who are like so, so, so handsome and it's like y'all got a good connection
Starting point is 00:49:23 but you know, he messed with other women too. So that's what that song's about. Oh, that's like y'all got a good connection but you know you mess with other women too. So that's what that song's about. Is that a personal? Y'all call that, that's the clean version. We call that dirty. We call that dirty niggas. That's what they call it.
Starting point is 00:49:34 That's gracious. In my day, in my day, that's what we used to call them. And you guys will be at the, on the Virtual BET Hip Hop Awards. Y'all got nominated, right? Yeah. Yeah. So how does that work Awards. Y'all got nominated, right? Yeah. Yeah. So how does that work?
Starting point is 00:49:47 Do y'all perform from the backyard? Like, how is that working? Exactly. I mean, we have been performing from our backyard. It's been really fun because we don't have to leave the house. How difficult is that, though, with no audience? Nobody watching, nobody cheering. It's just like...
Starting point is 00:50:01 It's easier to me. You got to see me at the camera like your audience you kind of gotta forget it you know y'all open the album with a saying that has gotten me fired at least three times uh don't don't ask for permission ask for forgiveness i know what that means to me but what does that what does that mean to you so why we wanted to open up the album with that is because we're not going to apologize for being ourselves and baring our souls. We don't do this for outside validation. And if we insult anybody by being unapologetically young black women and feeling strong in that,
Starting point is 00:50:36 then that's okay. We would rather do that. Put our complete confidence and our head held high up first and then ask for forgiveness later you know question was it was it hard i know you said it's easy working with your sister was it hard working with your little boyfriend diggy on grown-ish when y'all doing grown-ish goodness gracious what i love about working on grown-ish is that we're all like a big happy family like the energy is so good everyone on set we're all chill we're all friends a big, happy family. Like, the energy is so good. Everyone on set, we're all chill. We're all friends.
Starting point is 00:51:06 And I can't wait to go back to filming. It's really, really fun. I love y'all media training. I think you guys are incredible. I know, right? That was good. They did a great job. But even with the ex dead, what if the ex is back for the next season?
Starting point is 00:51:19 We're friends. We're good. Everything's good. Okay. When they were dragging him online, did he hit you up and was like, say something, say that the song's not about me, because they were definitely going in. Did y'all at least have a conversation about that?
Starting point is 00:51:32 He was very supportive. Have y'all ever gone through phones? So what I really, truly appreciate about being signed to Beyonce is that she lets us find our own selves through the music and everything we've created it's come from us so then we'll send the music to her once we feel like we've gotten it in a good place and usually still send like a long list of notes for songs and stuff but when we sent the album you know we really had close to no notes we were like she must really like this project yeah that was right yeah and every time she posted or
Starting point is 00:52:05 support our original music it means the absolute world to us we still get stuck struck every time so it's just we're in a pretty good situation because i know for some artists they can't do that you know we get to use all of our projects produce them write all of them and work with people we want to work with and she'll even bring in her expertise sometimes too. Like it was her idea for us to work with Scott Storch. We never met him before, but we've always been friends. And through working with Scott, we had like five or six sessions and we do it with him and we made lonely with him.
Starting point is 00:52:36 I want to talk about a couple other themes on the album because it is a lot about relationships, right? All right, now, have you ever done something to a guy? Y'all talk about on the song Catch Up, right? All right. Now, have you ever done something to a guy? Y'all talk about on the song Catch Up, right? With Sway Lee, have you ever done back to him what he did to you? If he treated you foul and started talking to somebody else, have you ever done it back as revenge? I haven't. I haven't. Although I am very petty. I feel like the most I would do. Because you're a cancer. Yeah. Yeah, you understand.
Starting point is 00:53:05 It's like, I'm like a one-woman person, so when I like someone, I'm laser-focused on them, but when I feel like you're not on the same level, then I'll, like, finally respond
Starting point is 00:53:14 to these other people who have been constantly hitting me up that I've been ignoring for a long time. And then I'll do that. That's my revenge. And then I don't feel bad.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Have you ever contacted the other woman? No. Reached out to another woman? Never. And I never. I won't do that. No. Because you're in a relationship with a guy.
Starting point is 00:53:33 You're not in a relationship with a woman. Whether or not she knew you were in a relationship with him, you're not with her. So, yeah. I don't get that going to the other woman. Yeah. Have you ever cheated? No. No.
Starting point is 00:53:44 I believe it. Hallie, you look a little, You smirking, Hallie. She said she believes in karma. I've never cheated on somebody, ever. Have you ever hit a guy in a DM? Anybody in a DM before? No, we don't hit up first. We might respond.
Starting point is 00:54:00 Barely. I don't. But we don't hit up first. Are you both single? Yes. Yeah. Are you dating? No. Oh, sort of, yeah. I mean, you can't really in quarantine. Well, I can't really in quarantine. Yeah, you can't really. Like, what is dating in quarantine?
Starting point is 00:54:16 You can be on FaceTime dating and having cute... Is that kind of dating? Or just talking? Listen, I feel like this quarantine time of getting to know somebody is actually a good time because y'all have those really deep conversations before you hook up in person. So are you having deep conversations?
Starting point is 00:54:32 Yeah. I've been open to conversations. No, I have, yeah. Goodness gracious. Alright, we're keeping our eyes on you, okay, ladies? But I do want to say, every time I see y'all out, you guys are so sweet and amazing, and so I just love the journey to see when y'all were young, to see y'all as beautiful women still doing the thing

Starting point is 00:57:28 My wife like it. I'm not doing it for you unless you're going to tree hug me. But my wife like it. That's all that matters. She hates how you're messing up the pillow sheets. She can't stand having to wash Beijing off the pillow sheets all the time. No matter what I do, you will hate. And y'all got little babies.

Starting point is 00:58:08 You know what? I'm not talking to you. Rumors up next is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip.
Starting point is 00:58:16 The Rumor Report. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Nicki Minaj has activated her barbs, and that is to light up A$AP Ferg's comments. She said, you gotta light up his comments every day if you want to move your hips. It's a song that snippets have been leaked out of. Here's what it sounds like. Yeah, Clue actually premiered that.
Starting point is 00:59:01 We do a show called Monday Night Mixtape every Monday from 10 to midnight, and Clue premiered that a couple of weeks ago. I heard that Clue Minotti dropped, so Clue has it. We should light up Clue's comments. Yeah, that might work. That Nicki Minaj verse on that A$AP Ferg record is so hard. Drop on the Clue's bombs for Nicki Minaj. I'm not a hater.
Starting point is 00:59:20 I give props where props is due. She got busy on that record with A$AP Ferg. Let's light up DJ Clue's comments. He could drop that. Envy, you can. Clue definitely didn't send it to me, and I don't think he played it again. I think he just played it that one time. But I'm going to see Clue this weekend,
Starting point is 00:59:35 so I'm definitely going to try to get it from his laptop. Oh, you're going out this weekend? Yeah, I got to do Monday Night Mixtape. But I will be masked up and I'm not traveling. And we saw you take a picture with Self as well. Yeah, that was to do Monday Night Mixtape. But I will be messed up if I'm not traveling. And we saw you take a picture with Self as well. Yeah, that was a bad one. Yeah, okay. Anyway, there's another song that she's saying
Starting point is 00:59:53 you can light up Kim Kardashian's comments, and that's a Kanye West single. It's called New Body, and here's that. So apparently the rumor is that was supposed to be on his Yandy album. Oh, you know what? I think I actually heard that verse before. All right. Well, yes. So everybody's lighting up the comments right now trying to hear these Nicki Minaj songs.
Starting point is 01:00:32 All right. That was supposed to be on a Kanye record. I did hear that. Yeah. That was supposed to be on a Kanye album. All right. And Tiana Taylor has revealed that Erykah Badu is going to help her out when it's time for her to give birth. She was on with Nick Cannon, and here's what she said.
Starting point is 01:00:48 You having this one at the crib, too? Is that going to be a sight? You know what's crazy? Even though the Junie story is crazy, it kind of put me in a comfort zone where I don't know if I want to go to the hospital for this next baby. Yeah, I'm considering home birth, and I'm actually going to be doing it with Erykah. Oh, wow. That's beautiful. I'm super excited. So I'm going to going to be doing it with Erica. Oh, wow. That's beautiful. I'm super excited.
Starting point is 01:01:06 So I'm going to have her just sing her verse from Low Key to me. Erica Badula. Okay. That's dope. That's dope. Doulas are great. You know, my third daughter, my wife was able to have a vaginal birth because she had a C-section for our second daughter. And they always tell you that, you know, after you have a C-section, you got to keep having C-sections. But because of Miss Lathan Thomas,
Starting point is 01:01:28 Mama Glow, she was able to have a vaginal birth. So doulas are great. Yeah, Erykah Badu is a certified doula. She delivered all three of her children at home, and she's also helped 40 mothers safely have their babies as well. So she's part of the baby's welcoming committee, she said. That's dope. Alright, now Beyonce, the beehive is angry and that's because of a post that Britney Spears put up. Now Britney Spears
Starting point is 01:01:52 posted a picture with the bee on it. We know that, you know, the queen bee is Beyonce. And I guess Britney Spears also calls herself queen bee. I don't know. I've never heard that. I don't follow. Never heard that in my life. I only acknowledge two Queen Bees.
Starting point is 01:02:08 That's Lil' Kim and Beyonce. Right. So she had instructed, and people call her Queen, and Britney said, to all my fans who call me Queen Bee, I believe this would be more accurate. And then she put the winky face and some bee emojis and a bee with a crown on it,
Starting point is 01:02:23 and the beehive went crazy. I don't think she meant any harm by it, perhaps. She might not have known what the beehive is like. I'm not sure what that was all about. You ever seen My Girls? You ever seen the great classic movie My Girls? Thomas J was allergic to bees. Okay.
Starting point is 01:02:40 When he walked in the woods, he didn't mean to run into that beehive, but he did. And then guess what? He was at the funeral without his glasses so that's what happened to britney spears yesterday she ran into a beehive she had no idea the beehive was there okay well little kim's a queen bee also right that is a fact yes before that is who i acknowledge is queen bees right so i don't know who knows but she i don't know how you could not know that. The difference between Lil' Kim and Beyonce is that when Lil' Kim was, you know, at the top of her game, there was no social media. So she didn't have an emoji. So Beyonce got an emoji.
Starting point is 01:03:16 She got the piece. All right. Now, Fab and Jadakiss are doing the versus battle. We've been wondering who Fab was going to battle and Jadakiss as well. So the two of them are going against each other. That should be a good one. That's happening on the 29th at 8 p.m. That's Monday at 8 p.m. Eastern. And you can stream it on Instagram Live or on Apple Music.
Starting point is 01:03:35 So, you know, I got to ask, what you think? This is going to be a good one. This is going to be a good one. Jadakiss by a landslide. I love Fab and I love Jadakiss. one this can be a good one jada kiss and jada kiss by a landslide uh i like i love i love fab and i love jada kiss but i think that when we compare these verses we're thinking lyrics and rhymes but it's not about lyrics and rhymes it's about songs when you think about anthems right because this is what the verse is about it's about big records jada kiss has more anthems now fab got
Starting point is 01:04:01 more commercial commercially successful singles correct but jada got more street anthems. Now, Fab got more commercial, commercially successful singles. Correct. But Jada got more street anthems. What's gonna happen when he play the champ is here? He gotta start with that. What's gonna happen when he play everywhere we go? People wanna know. What's gonna happen when he play We Gon' Make It?
Starting point is 01:04:20 What's gonna happen when he play his records with Big? Cause he got real songs with Big, not no made up What's gonna happen when Jada Kidd plays Big Cause he got real songs with Big Not no made up What's gonna happen when Jadakiss plays Last Days When Jadakiss plays the Freestyle for Cream What happens when Jadakiss plays Right By Your Side Right, but then you could say What's gonna happen when Fab plays Make Me Better Or Throw It In The Bag
Starting point is 01:04:37 Or You Be Killin' Him Oh, come on See what I'm saying? You named all Listen to what you just did You named all And by the way, I love those records But those are all commercial singles.
Starting point is 01:04:46 I'm talking about big street anthems for the verses. He got Breathe, Keeping It Gangsta. Fab got Brooklyn. He got a lot of records as well. He got a lot of records as well. I have to say, I honestly don't know who's going to win this one. I think this is a really. But that's what it's supposed to be about, right?
Starting point is 01:05:01 Fab got some joints. That's how you know it's a good battle when you don't know who's going to win. Yeah, and what happened with Jada? Jada got so much. He could play records from the locks. He could play records that he wrote for Puff. He could play his own solo records. Man, come on, man.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Show discipline with Nas. Blood pressure. Breathe easy. I already said by your side, like, yo, listen, I love Fab. Fab gets busy. But I'm just talking about when it comes to a versus. Fab got a lot of records. That's all I'm going to say.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Fab got a lot of records. A lot of this is going to depend on what songs they put against each other. I think that's really what it is, what songs they choose and what goes against what. Because we all know that really plays a large part in who wins the battle. This song versus this song. You'll be killing him. Fab could go any which way. Once again, you're naming all the great commercial records.
Starting point is 01:05:50 He got freestyles with all these people. Fab got joints too. Fab got joints when he did the joints with Joe Buttons and Stack Bundles, the street joints. He got, why wouldn't I? Fab got joints. See, see, see. And those are not singles.
Starting point is 01:06:02 You're being very New York regional right now. And you're not? People don't know those records all across the country. No. A lot of records. Yo, Ed Sheeran. A lot of records that people won't know. There's a lot of New York records for both of them.
Starting point is 01:06:16 My guy, Ed Sheeran, right? That's my guy, okay? Ed Sheeran can rap by your side verbatim. He can rap Jadakiss' verse by your side verbatim because he said that him and his man from London used to ride around listening to that record all the time. Jada is a, and I'm not saying Fab's not. I'm just saying that Jadakiss is
Starting point is 01:06:34 universally accepted and I just think he got bigger street anthems than Fab. Fab got the commercial records on lock. Right, so it's Fab. They gotta go back and forth. It's a matter of what you look. Guys, this is enough of this battle. Rumor report is over.
Starting point is 01:06:49 We got some songs to play. We got some commercials to play. I'm Angela Yee. That's your rumor report. All right. Shut up. Long as hell. Who you giving that donkey to?
Starting point is 01:06:58 We need Rudy Giuliani to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. I'm so embarrassed that that was ever our mayor. Embarrassing. Word. All right. We'll get into that I'm so embarrassed that that was ever our mayor. Embarrassing. Word. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:07:08 The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. The world has looked a lot emptier than usual, but America's small businesses didn't disappear. Many have been here all along on eBay, getting us the things we need. And in return, we give them the business they need. eBay, where America's small businesses live.
Starting point is 01:07:28 You get donkey of the day. Yeah, you dumbass. You get donkey of the day. Yeah, you dumbass. You are a donkey. It's time for donkey of the day. Donkey of the day, huh? I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes.
Starting point is 01:07:44 They want this man to throw them blows, man. They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves. Let's go. They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day. They chose you. I know she is. To the breakfast club, bitchy. Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Starting point is 01:07:57 Donkey of the Day for Thursday, June 25th goes to former mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani. Let me tell you something. Okay, I love the moment we are in right now in this country. The reason I love this moment is because for the most part it's so honest. America, as we know it, has been a lie. If you are black in this country, a woman in this country, gay in this country, any marginalized person in this country, you might as well wipe your ass with the Constitution.
Starting point is 01:08:20 It doesn't apply to you. Let's tear it up and try again. Because when it was written, it didn't have us in mind. Okay, what FUBU is to black people, for us, by us, America is to old white men, for them, by them. Okay, this country is a custom-made 101. You can't get this nowhere else. This is an exclusive sneaker designed specifically for Caucasians, in particular Caucasian males. And the colorway on that sneaker is white. Okay, white on white.
Starting point is 01:08:49 And now that black people in this generation have the audacity, the unmitigated gall, the balls to demand exactly what this country advertises, right? We have the balls to demand what this country advertises. We want them to give it to us, okay? Because we are citizens, which is freedom, justice, and equality. White people are losing their minds. Oh, man, 2020 we are citizens, which is freedom, justice, and equality, white people are losing their minds. Oh man, 2020 is the year to reveal. 2020 has given us all 2020 vision so we can clearly see what's going on in this country. That other side of America that black folks have
Starting point is 01:09:15 been talking about forever, that other side of America that Meek Mill just made a song about, oh, that side of America is on full display for the world to see. Now, Rudy Giuliani was on Fox News this week on Laura Ingraham's show, terrified, white lion, putting black people's lives in danger because he, in the immortal words of Chuck D in Public Enemy, has a fear of a black planet, okay? Warning on this clip, the mayonnaise is spicy with this one, okay? This is that spicy mayo. There's a lot of hot sauce in this one. Maybe even some sriracha. Let's listen to what Rudy Giuliani had to say on Fox News. It should be quite plain to every American who can see through the propaganda that Antifa, Black Lives Matter, the communists, and their allies are executing a plan they wrote about four or five years ago, including Black Lives Matter.
Starting point is 01:10:05 They want to destroy our government. They wrote then they want to do away with the police. They want to empty out the prisons. They want to internationalize our government. They want to do away with our system of courts. And they want to take your property away and give it to other people. This is a orchestrated effort. It is no longer a protest about Mr. Floyd.
Starting point is 01:10:25 That ended a long time ago. People who say they're favorable to Black Lives Matter, Black Lives Matter wants to come and take your house away from you. They want to take your property away from you. They want to let criminals out of prison. All criminals out of prison. Groups that are aligning themselves. They're anti-American. Wham, wham, wham. I'm a white baby. Do you see what is happening here, America? Once again, during an election year, they are drawing a line in the sand saying we are over here and they are over there. Rudy Giuliani is creating an us versus them mentality. Black people have always been America's boogeyman. But now Rudy and the other old white men are rallying the troops they want
Starting point is 01:11:05 a civil war in these streets black lives matter wants to come and take your house away from you they want to take property away from you they want to let all criminals out of prison they're anarchists and they're anti-american rudy stop being a sucker and just say what you want to say kill those n****s okay sorry toronto they don't like me using the n-word in Toronto but that's what Rudy is basically saying see black people are already looked at as a threat in this country Rudy is 76 years old he's always felt like
Starting point is 01:11:34 black people were a threat this is nothing new to him now he's just giving white supremacist groups and white militias the green light giving them an excuse to do what America likes to do anyway, and that's wage war on black people. Trust me, Fox News host and commentator's been on this, okay?
Starting point is 01:11:52 By the way, Tucker Carlson told his viewers, BLM, we're going to eliminate police and replace them with woke militias who would then secure powerful liberals across the country. Listen to these white lies. The media and their relentlessly fawning coverage usually describe Black Lives Matter as an activist group or a protest movement. But that's deception by understatement. Black Lives Matter is not a collection of marchers with signs. It's not a conventional political lobby like
Starting point is 01:12:17 Planned Parenthood or the NRA. It's not pressuring Congress to pass some narrow new set of laws. Black Lives Matter is far more ambitious than that. It is working to remake the country and then to control it. Black Lives Matter is getting exactly what they want. And that is the most basic sign of strength. Strength is the most appealing quality to voters and to people and to animals. Black Lives Matter believes in force. They flood the streets with angry young people who break things and they hurt anyone who gets in the way. When they want something, they take it. Make them mad and they will set your business on fire. Annoy them and they will occupy your downtown and declare a brand new country. You're not gonna do anything about it. They know that for certain.
Starting point is 01:12:56 Let me tell you something. A man who has a street named after him in every city in this country Frederick Douglass once said, power concedes nothing without demand. It never has and never will. My fellow black Americans, we have to demand our full rights that this country advertises it gives its citizens so that we have the power we need to function. We're not asking for anything more than what this country has already promised us, and we're not asking for anything more than what we deserve, because truth be told, the only way this country could ever atone for its original sin, is slavery is through legislation and reparations but there really isn't a number that would justify what black people have gone through in this country you cannot put a price point on our pain but black people also remember that we deserve whatever good
Starting point is 01:13:38 we get we are owed that by this country so if us demanding what's ours which is our civil rights and some form of equity package for building this country for free, if that makes racists uncomfortable, if that makes bigots bitter, then good. So be it. Okay. I am not America's enemy. I am an enemy of white supremacy. I am an enemy of systemic racism, period, as you should be. The reason Rudy Giuliani and Tucker Carlson are talking that way, because they are terrified of one thing and one thing only, and that, my friends, is cracker-ass karma. See, a cracker is a racist, bigot, white supremacist, prejudiced, privileged, pale human. Not a regular white person. There's people that happen to be white, and then there's cracker-ass crackers. And cracker- ass crackers are afraid of cracker ass karma. I repeat, a cracker is a racist, bigot, white supremacist, supremacist, prejudiced, privileged, pale human.
Starting point is 01:14:31 And crackers are afraid of their karma because they know what they have done to oppress and marginalize black people and other groups in this country. So that white guilt is eating them alive because they think eventually all the evil they have done is going to come back to them. And they are correct. But it's not going to be black people administering that revenge. No, it's going to be God, the universe. That's just the way the game works. You can't escape it. I mean, you could, Rudy, but you don't have what it takes. See, one surefire way to create good karma and reverse cracker ass evil karma is to tell the truth. Anytime you tell a lie, even if it's a small one, you've set yourself up for deceit and hidden agendas from other people. And I just played
Starting point is 01:15:11 several white lies from you and Tucker Carlson. So I don't know what to tell you other than if you don't like diversity, Rudy Giuliani, then you are going to hate heaven. So maybe you should thank God you're going to hell. Please let Chelsea Handler give Rudy Giuliani the biggest hee haw. Hee haw, hee haw. That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. And listen, for all the white people listening to this who think black people want to take over the world, please listen to these words from the honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.
Starting point is 01:15:40 We don't want to become black supremacists. We just want to dismantle white supremacy. Listen. Whites fear violence from us. We do not have a history of killing white people. White people have a history of killing us. And what you fear, and it's a deep guilt thing that white folks suffer, you are afraid that if we ever come to power, we will do to you and your fathers what you and your people have done to us. And I think you are judging us by the state of your own mind, and that is not necessarily the mind of black people. Once again, we don't want to become black supremacists.
Starting point is 01:16:25 We just want to dismantle white supremacy. My name is Lenard McKelvey, and I approve this message. All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day.

Starting point is 01:17:14 What's going on? I want to be anonymous, man. Want to be what? Anonymous. I want to know, yeah. Anonymous? Anonymous, all right. What's your question for Ye?
Starting point is 01:17:24 Well, I've been talking to this woman, man, for a little while. And she seems like she's not strong enough, man. Like, she let me get away with a lot of stuff. Get away with, like, what do you do? I don't do nothing, but it just seemed like I could. You know, everything I say, it goes. You know, so it's just like she don't have her own mind. You know, I care for her.
Starting point is 01:17:45 So she trusts you and believes you and you have a problem with that? Yeah, because she just, you know, she just, she too open. She let me, it's whatever I say go. You know, I want her to have her own mind. I mean, it's like the perfect woman. I can mold her to whatever I want to be, but I don't want that. You know, I'm, you know. You want a challenge. Yeah. I don't want that. You want a challenge.
Starting point is 01:18:06 Yeah. I don't want to accept that, you know. Listen, I think. That's wrong. You feel like you'll take advantage of her? Yeah, I would feel like I was taking advantage of somebody. Well, what kind of direction are you staring her in that's so wrong? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:18:23 I'm not. I don't see myself being in it wrong. I just, I just feel like I'm taking advantage of it because it's, you know, it's whatever I say go. And I try not to lead on to that. Do you treat her really well? Yes, I do. So maybe she just trusts you and lets you lead because she likes the way that you treat her also. And you're a great person and she trusts you that much. what what do you want her to challenge you on give me an example
Starting point is 01:18:49 i want her to have her own say like give me an example like if you say this is this is where we're going for like what do you mean like give me an example of what she does if i say this where we're going this is what we're eating every day no matter what what. You know? To her, it don't nothing matter other than what I say. Okay. It gets a little boring sometimes. Do you ever ask her what it is that she wants to do and let her know, like, listen, I want you to make plans sometimes,
Starting point is 01:19:16 or I want you to do these things sometimes and step up, and I want you to know that's cool, like, that's what I want you to do. I've done that. It still don't matter. It all comes down to whatever I say, to whatever I do. So you just feel like she's not the one? I mean, I care for her.
Starting point is 01:19:33 I love her. But it's just I want her to have her own mindset, you know? You think there's a reason why she acts this way as far as how she's been raised or things that have happened to her? I have no idea. I mean, I mean, we talked about somewhat on her past, but I really, really don't know everything in detail. Well, if this is something that you feel like is worth trying to salvage and save, then maybe y'all need to go to counseling together so you can get to the root of why she is this way, because it might be things about her that you don't know about. I know you said you've asked her
Starting point is 01:20:07 but it might be some things that she even doesn't understand why she acts this way. If that's something that you feel invested in trying to figure out further. Maybe she needs more confidence and maybe she needs to be more assertive and that will help her in life in general.
Starting point is 01:20:24 I just don't want to be that dude to actually run with that. And, you know, I'm not, I'm okay with it. But at the end, it just, it made me feel bad, you know? Right. Well, listen, if you're not leading her in a way that feels like it's destructive or harmful to her and she trusts you, I understand that there's times that she should be able to lead because that's what relationships are, right? Sometimes the man leads, sometimes the woman leads, but you just need her to lead at times is what you're saying. Correct. Okay. And I think that's fair. And so if you said you've had these conversations with her, then it might be something
Starting point is 01:20:58 deeper in her that you haven't touched on and maybe she hasn't either. Okay. So I would definitely try to do that. And there's a lot of virtual therapy sessions you can be doing right now that might be really helpful that you can do online. Okay. You got any sites or any... As a matter of fact,
Starting point is 01:21:18 hold on the line. I'm going to get your information and I'm going to send it to you because I do have a therapist, Dr. Kendall Jasper that I always reference. So we're going to send it to you because I do have a therapist, Dr. Kendall Jasper, that I always reference. So we're going to make sure that we get you that information because I do feel like this is something that you can work through. If this is somebody, like you said, you care about or you love her, this is something that maybe. And I also feel like even if things don't work out between the two of you, maybe this is something that will be helpful for her just in general in life. All right. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:21:44 All right. Hold on one second. We'll get your info. All right. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice, you can hit Yee at any time. All right? Call us up right now.

Starting point is 01:22:10 Good morning. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? You can call me Osborne. Osborne? Okay. Okay. So, my issue is I have a jailbait.
Starting point is 01:22:22 And I'm hearing a lot of bad things about this jailbait. And, well, no, of bad things about this jailbait like um and well no not a bad things about him but like bad things about jailbaits in general and um so he asked me to do a lot of things for him when he comes home and I haven't started doing it yet because I'm hearing a lot of things about jailbaits and stuff like. But, you know, like if it was me, I would want somebody to, you know, help me. So this is like the situation that I have. Like he asked me to buy him clothes. He asked me to buy him a car. He asked me to buy him some LeBron.
Starting point is 01:22:56 What? Yeah. Slow down, slow down, slow down. He asked you to buy him a car? Yeah, I mean, it was like I was talking to him about the car. I wanted the car. Like, I like old school cars, and it was like a car for like $800. Like, it was like a Crown Victoria.
Starting point is 01:23:13 And it's really not, well, it's okay, but it's like, okay, cool. Like, I have an extra car. You can just use that and stuff like that. But I'm getting it. But he said, oh, this is going to be my car. And I'm like, no. Have you ever watched Love After Lockup? A lot of people say that, no.
Starting point is 01:23:32 Please watch that show. Please watch it. Okay, but you can watch it on demand, Love After Lockup. Yes, please watch that show. What channel is that show on? I'm going to tell you right now. But let me ask you this. So did you know him before he went to jail?
Starting point is 01:23:49 It's on WE tv. No. No. Okay. So you met him while he was locked up. How'd you meet him while he was locked up? I met him through my friend. Like I met him through a mutual friend.
Starting point is 01:23:59 But me and her aren't friends anymore. Ooh, it sounds a little shady already. First of all, I don't believe a man that you have never met in person should be asking you to buy him a car, buy him clothes. Where is his family at and other people that know him? He would have to live in a halfway house.
Starting point is 01:24:16 So you're letting him come to your house when he gets out? Yeah. What is he in jail for? I'm sorry. What is he in jail for? A lot of different things. Like what? Scamming. Anything violent?
Starting point is 01:24:30 No. Yeah, he's violent, but it's not scamming. He's like, but he's like from his friends. Like, okay, so my friend's baby daddy went to jail and he came home and he was just like, okay, cool. I got you a good guy. He's a really good guy. He just had like a bad surrounding.
Starting point is 01:24:49 Here's the problem, right, is that when men are locked up and women too, sometimes they will say whatever they have to say to whoever they have to say it to so that when they come home, they're all good. If I were you, I wouldn't be going out of my way to do all of these things for somebody if I haven't had the time to my way to do all of these things for somebody if I
Starting point is 01:25:06 haven't had the time to see what happens once they get home. Because once people get home, things can change. And you don't know how many other women he's potentially talking to. Does he have any kids or baby moms? No kids, no baby mom. Okay. So you don't know who else he's talking to
Starting point is 01:25:21 while he's locked up. So that's one thing. Number two, I would wait until he comes home to see what it is. You've got to protect yourself. And I don't know who else he's talking to while he's locked up. So that's one thing. Number two, I would wait until he comes home and see what it is. You've got to protect yourself. And I don't think there's anything wrong with being honest about that. And if he's a real man, he'll understand. I'd be like, look, let's just wait. I'm already letting you come to my house. And you say, you know, you've been locked up.
Starting point is 01:25:39 You've been walking around the store. It's talking to him, being faithful to him. If he comes home and comes to your house and then you feel comfortable in doing things for him, that's when you make that decision. Now, some basic things, like if you need some, you know, a little bit of clothes or whatever so he's comfortable when he comes home and you're okay with doing that, that's cool.
Starting point is 01:25:55 But I'm not buying nobody no car. It's already enough that you're letting him stay at your house instead of going to a halfway house. That's a lot right there. Okay. But it also speaks volumes, right, when a person doesn't have other people close to them or family members or friends that they can rely on
Starting point is 01:26:10 that he has to rely on you. So you got to pay attention to signs. He has my old best friend's boyfriend that he's really cool with. He's going to go stay with him when I'm not at home. But is there any way that this is a positive? Or just, you know... I mean, like home. But is there any way that this is for positive? Or just, you know.
Starting point is 01:26:29 I mean, like, yes, there is a way that it can. But I also believe in you're not going to know. There's no guarantees. So I do believe in protecting yourself. And I wouldn't want to overextend myself financially to somebody that I'm not sure how. You sound uncertain already. Yeah, because I keep hearing about the love after lockup. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:26:50 You guys have a wonderful day. You too. She's going to do everything for him. I see. All right. You ever watch love after lockup? I've never. All right. While you're home on this quarantine,
Starting point is 01:27:00 go to WE tv on demand or watch it. It comes on all the time. Many seasons of it. Please watch that show. All right. I need to. You know what? I need to be on the demand or watch it. It comes on all the time. Many seasons of it. Please watch that show. All right. I need to, you know what?
Starting point is 01:27:08 I need to be on an episode of Hoarders. After, you know, I'm moving. So after I'm checking out all the ish that we have, like it's ridiculous. Like it's ridiculous
Starting point is 01:27:17 the way my wife just puts things in the basement like the basement is just continuous. No, it's not me. Don't just blame it on her. If it's something
Starting point is 01:27:24 that I don't want, I give it away or I get rid of it. She keeps everything. Everything. It's ridiculous. But 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, and let's talk about somebody who actually was on the show Friends, right?
Starting point is 01:27:38 And we know Friends was not a very diverse show, but she's a black woman. And she said she wasn't asked back. We'll tell you why. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey everybody, it's DJ Envy,
Starting point is 01:27:53 Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk friends. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. The Rumor Report on The Breakfast Club. So listen up. is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Right, and a lot of people have been talking about the show Friends and the lack of diversity on the show.
Starting point is 01:28:13 Well, one person who was on the show was Sherri Shepherd. There was only a handful of black people on the show during its existence, and it was her, Aisha Tyler, Gabrielle Union, one of the very few black faces on the show. So John Murray, who's a pop culture commentator and he's also friends with Sherri Shepherd, was talking to ABC News and Sherri Shepherd told him he could go ahead and tell this story. But apparently after the show, she wasn't invited back on because at that time you would send out postcards and thank people, thank people for being on the show. And here's what John Murray said
Starting point is 01:28:44 happened when Sherri Shepherd sent out her postcards. Sherri for being on the show. And here's what John Murray said happened when Sherri Shepherd sent out her postcards. Sherri Shepherd, former co-host of The View, she was one of the few black faces that was on Friends. Her, Aisha Tyler, and Gabrielle Union. And Sherri was on Friends at a time where you sent out postcards to let people know, hey, I'm going to be on TV. And on her postcard, she sent out a color photo of herself and she said, Friends gets a little color. Well, she also sent that photo to Marta, and she got the postcard and was never asked back on the show. So I don't know how oblivious she is to the fact that she didn't have a lack of diversity and she wasn't aware. I think when you know better, you do better.
Starting point is 01:29:19 And I hope moving forward, she makes better decisions to be more inclusive. Wow. Well, she's absolutely right. Why are you upset? Why are you upset with Sherri Shepherd? Because she said the right thing. Add a little color to your friends lineup. That's why I never watch Friends, because when I saw Friends,
Starting point is 01:29:32 I just wasn't interested because there was nobody on there that looked like me. And I'm the type of person that likes to watch things that don't pertain to me and read things that don't pertain to me. I just was never interested in Friends. Yeah, me neither. I never watched Friends. I think I've seen Friends because I actually used to watch Seinfeld and Friends would always come on right after.
Starting point is 01:29:48 So sometimes the TV would still be on, but it's like scattered that I might see some of the episodes. But Seinfeld didn't have black people on there really either. I didn't watch that either. I didn't watch Seinfeld either. I did watch Seinfeld though. And you know what show was very diverse
Starting point is 01:30:03 and you know it's one of my favorite shows, though, when I look back at it? The Office. I don't know if y'all watched The Office. I didn't watch The Office either. I watched some episodes of The Office. Office was good. I actually want to binge that.
Starting point is 01:30:13 I might binge that over the next couple weeks, actually. I've seen every single episode of The Office ever, and I do love that show. All right, now Reese Witherspoon talks about not knowing what homosexuality was. They did this series, Varieties, Actors on Actors, and it's Reese Witherspoon and Regina King. And they're having these discussions. And if y'all watch Little Fires Everywhere, which, you know, I love that show, too, that series. On the show, Reese Witherspoon's daughter is also she's gay and she hasn't come out to her mom yet.
Starting point is 01:30:41 So here's Reese Witherspoon talking about her own real life experience and how that played into her character on the show. No one spoke to me about sexuality when I was a teenager. I didn't understand what homosexuality was. My grandparents didn't explain it. My parents didn't explain it. I had to learn from somebody I met in an audition in Los Angeles. Oh, wow. We incorporated some of the conversation I had with my grandmother afterwards where she said you know homosexuality is very rare race and we put it in the script. And you actually said... Elena said that. Elena said that because that's what was said to me.
Starting point is 01:31:18 Now maybe I missed it but how old was she during this time when she didn't know what homosexuality was? She was a teenager. Where the hell is she from? Because I'm from Monaco, South Carolina, a very rural town. When I was growing up, it was 7,000 people, and I knew what being gay was. So where the hell is she from that she didn't know what being gay is? Right, I mean. Well, she's from Nashville, Tennessee. New Orleans?
Starting point is 01:31:44 Oh, I thought she was from Nashville. She was born in New Orleans. I don't know. Maybe she was raised in Nashville. So she was born in New Orleans. She was in New Orleans and didn't know what gay was? Come on now. That sounds so crazy.
Starting point is 01:31:54 So you was a teenager? Yeah, that sounds crazy. Maybe. I mean, I don't know. Maybe she was sheltered. Yeah, you don't know. I mean, yeah, who knows? But Regina King, meanwhile, in this interview,
Starting point is 01:32:02 says that she thinks it's very insulting when celebrities are telling people, stay home, stay home. Here's what she had to, in this interview, says that she thinks it's very insulting when celebrities are telling people, stay home, stay home. Here's what she had to say in this same interview. You have to understand that while we're telling people, stay home, stay home, there are people out there who are not in financial situations that to say that to them is almost insulting.
Starting point is 01:32:24 She's absolutely positively correct. You don't know people's situation. You don't know their circumstances. Some people got to get up and go to work. They don't have the luxury of working from home like we're currently doing right now. Correct. Man, some people have businesses that are going to shut down if you're a small business owner. And a lot of people weren't able to get that paycheck protection program going. A lot of people are struggling because of that. So it is a situation where everybody's different as far as what they can and can't do and what their anxiety is and financial situation is. So yeah, it's difficult to tell people stay home. All right. And Jill Scott is talking about going to visit a plantation, a former slave plantation, and how she couldn't believe
Starting point is 01:33:06 that some of them are now whitewashed and they're making them like an Airbnb location or a cozy vacation spot. You know how they have the bed and breakfast and it used to be a plantation and they give you the whole tour. Well, here's what she said her experience was. So I take the tour
Starting point is 01:33:21 and they're walking through the parlor and talking about how they would host guests and serve brandy and tea and have conversation and music would be played. And everybody's going, oh, no, no, no, don't touch the furniture. And the lady shows us a picture and she says, noticed how no one really smiled back then. And I looked at those faces, and I decided that I was going to get away from this tour. Yeah, I did always think it was weird when you go places, and it's like such and such plantation.
Starting point is 01:34:00 Like, it's time to let that go also. Well, you don't want to come to South Carolina then. South Carolina got a million of them. Does that bother you? You know what's so interesting? I grew up around all of that overt racism, and it was so normal to me that I didn't even think it was overt racism. Now that I'm older, yes, you see all those plantations,
Starting point is 01:34:19 and, you know, people come to Charleston, and they take tours of the plantations, and, you know, they just took down the John C. Calhoun statue, which is in Marion Square. And Marion Square is actually in the shape of the Confederate flag. And we got Confederate flags all over the state house buildings and federal buildings. So, yeah, it does bother you.
Starting point is 01:34:35 It didn't bother me growing up because I just accepted it as normal. The crazy part, we didn't see much of that, you know, growing up in New York. But when I went to school in Virginia, I was smacked with reality. That's when you start seeing Confederate flags. That's when you start seeing racism at an all-time but when I went to school in Virginia, I was smacked with reality. That's when you start seeing Confederate flags. That's when you start seeing racism at an all-time high when I went to Hampton University. But you really didn't see it that much in New York.
Starting point is 01:34:52 And no, you're right, because when New Yorkers used to come down to South Carolina, they would all be like, man, I got to get up out of here. Right, it's a crazy feeling. But to me, it's just like, this is just what I was used to. That's what I know.
Starting point is 01:35:03 But yes, it does bother me, especially the plantation. And we told you about Rhode Island dropping plantation from their state name. It was called Rhode Island and Providence Plantations. And now they're getting rid of that. It's just Rhode Island. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee.
Starting point is 01:35:17 And that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, Revolt, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next. Get your request in. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, everybody. It's EJ, MV, Angela Yee. Now, Revolt, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next. Get your request in. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee,
Starting point is 01:35:29 Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club and we have some special guests on the line right now. We have Leigh Chapman. She's the Voting Rights Director at the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. Good morning. Morning. And we also have Sabrina Fulton. Welcome.
Starting point is 01:35:46 Thank you. How are you? We're doing well. We're doing well. So what's going on today, ladies? Well, today we're here to talk about voting and the importance of voting. And so we just want to reach out to people and let them know that how important it is to vote, how important their vote, make sure they know that their vote counts and that we need to support each other. Ms. Sabrina, how does voter suppression directly affect the cause that the Mother of the Movement is pushing for? One of the things, the long lines, we have a lot of people that we try to get. Here in Florida, we have early voting. So it's not a big issue with us on election day.
Starting point is 01:36:35 But we just want to make sure that people don't have problems voting because we do all of these things to make sure people come out and vote. And when they get there, they have to experience these long lines. They have to experience them not being able to vote because of their pre-sent change or something like that, something that they didn't know about ahead of time. And so we just try to get as much information out as possible. Here we have three ways to vote. You can early vote, you can absentee vote, and you can vote on election day. But with all this COVID virus going on, a lot of people are, you know, they don't want to come out of their house. So they are doing absentee voting, early voting, where it's less people. So this is Lee Chapman.
Starting point is 01:37:19 I just wanted to say that, you know, we're also here to talk about a letter that the mothers of the movement, Miss Tina Knowles-Lawson and black women celebrities sent to the U.S. Senate this week demanding that the Senate pass the HEROES Act, which is the critical stimulus package that gives an additional $3.6 billion to states to prevent all the issues we've seen in recent elections, including the seven-hour long lines in Georgia. You know, 70 people contracted COVID-19 in Wisconsin. And, you know, voters should not have to choose between their health and their safety and democracy. So we are so happy. I work at the Leadership Conference, which is the nation's largest civil rights coalition. We've been around for 70 years and we've lobbied on every major civil rights legislation, including the Voting Rights Act of
Starting point is 01:38:09 1965. So we were extremely happy to work on this letter with Sabrina Fulton, with the Mothers of the Movement, because it's critical to make that connection between policing, the protests, what we're seeing now in our country, and the change that we can all exercise at the ballot box. How do we go about change? You know, we were talking before, maybe do it online. You know, I grew up in Queens, which is a Black area, and when we had to vote, I mean, it was lines around a corner. I moved out to New Jersey, which is more of a white area, and there's nobody anymore. There's so much space. There's so many districts where people can vote and not have to see people.
Starting point is 01:38:45 But if I'm voting, I'm scared. I'm concerned because COVID, coronavirus is there. Now, if I'm waiting on long lines, you know, it's about my health. And we know that we, our community, have underlying conditions. We have diabetes. We have high blood. There's so many different things. So how do we change that where people feel comfortable to vote?
Starting point is 01:39:00 Is it online voting? Is it, you know, mailing? You know, what do you suggest? What do you guys think? Well, it's not online yet, just because the internet is not safe enough for the transaction of voting with all the hacking we saw in 2016. But one thing we're advocating for and one thing that the HEROES Act would do would have all the options for voters. So it would have mail-in voting nationwide. You know, every state does not have mail-in voting right now. It would have at least two weeks of early voting in every state in the country
Starting point is 01:39:29 so people can safely social distance and vote. It would have safe in-person voting, same-day voter registration. And we hear about voter purges where voters are kicked off the rolls. The best remedy to that is same-day voter registration. So we're advocating for all the options so voters can decide what's best for them to exercise their right to vote. Sabrina, I wanted to ask you, what was your experience like running for office? It's a piece of work. It's more than I expected. It's a lot of busy work. You know, I was already busy with, you know, running the Trayvon Martin Foundation and my speaking engagements. And then this was just something in addition to that.
Starting point is 01:40:10 I didn't know how much work it entailed. I didn't know how much calling and, you know, raising funds and just going to meetings and just meeting with people and, you know, the residents and everything. It's a lot of work. It's very, very tiresome. It's busy work, but it's with a purpose. And so it keeps me going every day because when I get up in the morning, I mean, I take my stretch and everything. You know, I thank God. And then I just keep going. I keep going. Sometimes I look back at my calendar and I'm like, I can't believe I did all of these things in one day, you know? So I'm just excited about, you know, the future of Miami-Dade County and just knowing that change will come. Ms. Tina Knowles is on the line. Good morning. Good morning. What made you connect
Starting point is 01:40:57 with the Mothers of the Movement? Oh my goodness. Well, I have been working with the Leadership Council of Civil and Human Rights on Instill Our Vote campaign. And I've been knowing Sabrina and some of the other mothers from years ago. And I just thought that this was a great way to connect the dots for our people because we, you know, I still get so many comments about people believing that their voices don't make a difference. And I mentor kids and I had a meeting with them about having a drive to register their family members to vote. And the general consensus was that, you know, whether we vote or not, it's not going to make a difference. And that is, you know, that's the attitude of a lot of people. And I feel like the connection with the mothers will connect the dots for people.
Starting point is 01:41:53 That if you don't vote at the local level and you don't have a say in who your mayor is, who hires the police chief or the district attorney who tries these cases that you won't be able to make a difference and you won't have a voice. So you have to vote and we have to educate our people on the power that they have. So I feel like the mothers can appeal to the public, especially right now with what's going on with all the protesting. And we have America, not only America, but across the world is watching. And this is a great time to try to galvanize
Starting point is 01:42:34 and make a difference in that way. And I mean, who is not going to listen to these amazing mothers that are, you know, we all stand in solidarity with them right now. That's right. Ms. Chapman, I want to ask you a question. I feel like people aren't raising enough hell about the voter suppression. Like what happened in Kentucky? Yes. It was blatant voter suppression. And I'm like, November's right around the corner. We saw that in 2016. How are we supposed to defeat
Starting point is 01:43:01 that in November? Yeah. what happened in Kentucky yesterday was ridiculous. You know, Louisville and Lexington only had one polling place. And in Louisville, that was one polling place for 600,000 voters. And we saw when the polls closed yesterday in Louisville, voters were banging on the doors to get in because the polling place actually locked the doors on them. Now they were actually able to get in and vote, but that's voter suppression, plain and simple. You know, we need to make noise about this. That's why this letter is so critical,
Starting point is 01:43:32 and this is why we're grateful for the mothers of the movement, Ms. Tina Knowles-Lawson and other celebrities to lift this up, because we need to talk about voter suppression. And a lot of this is intentional. It's made to make it harder for brown and black voters to vote. And, you know, standing in a line for seven hours is voter suppression. How can we get involved and how can people help? Sure. So you can go to our website and stillivote.org and sign up. We're really trying to create an army of people to fight voter suppression. And actually,
Starting point is 01:44:06 this week marks the seventh anniversary of the devastating Supreme Court decision, Shelby County versus Holder, which really opened the floodgates to voter suppression in our country. So this Thursday, we're actually asking people to drive calls to the Senate to ask the Senate to pass the Heroes Act which is highlighted at the letter that was sent up to the hill to make sure that we have safe and accessible elections this year. Ms. Sabrina, this is a little off topic but I always think about you and you know parents you know mothers like yourself do you ever get close to a place of healing or do the Ahmaud Arbery's and Breonna Taylor's and George Floyd's.
Starting point is 01:44:46 Does that keep re-triggering you? I get in a place because when this first happened, I thought I would never be happy again. So I do certainly have happy days. I also have my rainy days as well. And so I just think that this is something I'm going to deal with the rest of my life. You know, I just have a hole in my heart and I have to deal with it. It's like an illness that I have to, you know, I have to struggle with it every day, but I definitely have my good days. I appreciate the good days. I thank God for the good days. But yes, this is something that I have to live with on a daily
Starting point is 01:45:25 basis. I don't ever think you get to a space. You know, it's just a grieving process and you're going to live the process until you're in the casket. There is no worse pain than losing a child. It's not until you lose a child that you really realize how strong you are or how weak you are and if you can come back. And so, you know, me running for office, that's just my way of coming back. Well, we appreciate you so much for checking in, ladies and women. And we are very proud of you. Thank you. Absolutely. Absolutely. And give them the information once again. So you can go to and still i vote.org to sign up and join the army to fight voter suppression all right well thank you ladies for coming for calling and checking in today and giving us all the information we appreciate you for guys for calling stay safe
