Starting point is 00:02:28 It's Thursday. Yes, it's Thursday. Let me put some lotion on. I see some ash in the crevices of my fingers and the little web. Mm-hmm. You know the little web between the thumb and whatever finger that is next to the thumb? Yes, sir. Yes.
Starting point is 00:02:43 That's the pointer that's next to the thumb. Oh, that. Yes. That's the pointer. That's next to the thumb. Oh, that is the pointer. I just realized I can point with that one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can. I ain't pointed in a long time. When's the last time you pointed at something? Um...
Starting point is 00:02:53 Like, think about that. I don't know. When's the last time you pointed at something? Like, just said, hey, look at that. I don't know. Well, yesterday I was at the Universal Circus, of course. I tell you, I was going to be there last night. And I got to ride with the motorcycle crew again, which was pretty fun.
Starting point is 00:03:07 So shout out to the motorcycle crew at the Universe Soul Circus. I see you was out in L.A. with Yeezy yesterday. I don't know what you're talking about. You posted a picture. Who posted a picture? You. What'd I post a picture of? Mo, you going to play stupid?
Starting point is 00:03:22 I'm asking you what I posted a picture of. Okay. Then I didn't see a picture. Let me see the last picture. I'm asking you what I posted a picture of. Okay, right. Then I didn't see a picture. Let me see the last picture I posted. I'm just assuming that. Last picture I posted was of two shadowy figures. Who was the two shadowy figures?
Starting point is 00:03:35 Standing somewhere is the sunset. All I see is a silhouette of two shadowy figures. They look like two unlocked players from a video game. I don't know who that is, actually. What, were you on a date? What were you doing? Like, was it so sexy? I was minding my business, man. I just be living my life
Starting point is 00:03:49 like it's golden, you know, having a good time, enjoying every moment. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't know. Maybe you used your pointer finger last night
Starting point is 00:03:55 and forgot about it. Shut up. You didn't die on the motorcycle yesterday? No, I didn't die on the motorcycle, but you know what's funny? As I was walking in, you know what I seen walking out?
Starting point is 00:04:03 What? The poodles that you always talk about. There are poodles at the Universal Soul Circus. I keep telling y'all, why do y'all act like the Universal Soul Circus don't got trained dogs? Universal Soul Circus got Rottweilers, Pitbulls, and they just added the poodles. I didn't see
Starting point is 00:04:15 no Rottweilers and Pitbulls. The Rottweilers and Pitbulls do the same thing that Tigers and Lions do at other circuses. My goodness. Whatever the Tigers and Lions do at Barnes and Nobles. What's the name of the circus? Barnes and Nobles? The circus doesn't exist anymore. My goodness. Whatever the Tigers and Lions do at Barnes and Noble. What's his name at a circus? Barnes and Noble Circus? The circus doesn't exist anymore.
Starting point is 00:04:28 It's Barnum Bellies and Ringling Brothers and Barnum Bellies. Barnum Bellies. There you go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What is Barnes and Noble? Oh, that's the bookstore.
Starting point is 00:04:34 That's the bookstore. Jesus Christ. I should know that being that I have a New York Times bestselling book out. Yeah, you should. Which celebrated
Starting point is 00:04:39 its one-year anniversary yesterday, by the way. Drop on the clues, Barnum, for that. Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of Black Privilege. Opportunity comes to those who create it.
Starting point is 00:04:48 So you're just going to ignore the fact that you're not going to tell us what you were doing out in L.A. with Kanye yesterday? I'm in L.A. handling see-the-God business. I did see Kanye yesterday, though.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I ran into Kanye yesterday. I told you I miss Kanye's energy, you know? And then, you know, you realize that sometimes all you got to do is reach out, you know? So, yeah, we kicked it a little bit yesterday. Under the sunset out in California? Listen, man, that's Kanye's business to tell when Kanye wants to tell it. Okay, enough said. Yeah. All right, well, today Kiki Palmer will be joining us.
Starting point is 00:05:29 I like Kiki Palmer. I actually enjoy Kiki Palmer. Kiki Palmer used to have a talk show, and I really think that she needs another shot at a talk show because I think that she has a lot of good things to say. Okay, so we'll kick it with Kiki Palmer in a little bit, and then we got front page news. E.C.O.L.I. What? a little bit. And then we got front page news. Ecoli!
Starting point is 00:05:47 What? Yeah, Ecoli. Why are you just yelling out about feces early this morning, bro? Well, there's an outbreak. We'll tell you all about it when we come back at front page news. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:05:57 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Last night, the Cavaliers beat the Pacers 197. They tied the Series 1-1. LeBron was on fire. The Jazz beat the Thunder 102-95. That tied that Series 1-1. Donovan Mitchell broke
Starting point is 00:06:15 Michael Jordan's record for most points for a point guard with 55 points. And the Houston Rockets beat the Timberwolves 102-82. Alright, and rest in peace. I didn't see no basketball last night. I was knocked out. Me too Houston Rockets beat the Timberwolves 102-82. All right. And rest in peace. I didn't see no basketball last night. I was knocked out.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Me too. I was at the circus. And rest in peace to Greg Popovich's wife. They were together 40 years. She was 67. He's the coach of the Spurs. So rest in peace to her. God bless that brother, man.
Starting point is 00:06:39 God bless that brother. God bless his family in a time like this. I read that story this morning. And, you know, I just get anxiety because, you know, you've been with your wife for how many years? About 26. Yeah, I've been with mine for 20. It'll be 20 this year.
Starting point is 00:06:51 So just imagine that, spending 40 years of your life with a person. Now they're just gone. You know, I don't know. Me personally, I don't know if basketball or coaching basketball would be enough to make me be like, eh, I still want to be around without my significant other. Right. And they have a game tonight, so I don't know if he's going to be coaching or what. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:07:09 I guess we'll see. Now. You're asking too much of me. E.coli. Now, there was an E.coli outbreak. It's affected 16 states. Now, this is because of romaine lettuce. Now, some of the states, Alaska, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Virginia, and Washington. And they said they're getting cases
Starting point is 00:07:32 in Arizona as well. Now, the symptoms include stomach cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting. They said most people recover in five to seven days, but they said it usually really, really affects very young and very old individuals with compromised immune systems. That's crazy because, you know, those of us who eat ass have never had any of those symptoms. Okay. You know what I mean? That's a good way to look at it. You ever had, like, diarrhea or watery eyes?
Starting point is 00:07:57 What were the symptoms again? I said diarrhea, stomach cramps, or vomiting. You ever had that from eating ass? No. Exactly. So I don't understand why you would get that from eating lettuce that's covered in feces. That's what E. coli is, right? I mean, it's, yeah, I guess so.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Yeah. Like, I've never experienced that. Me neither. And I heard something yesterday, or maybe it was the day before. I don't know if I read this somewhere. They said that, like, when you're in a public restroom, the fecal matter from the public restroom gets sucked into the hand dryers. And then when you press the hand dryers to dry your hands. It blows it back out on your hands?
Starting point is 00:08:33 Yes. I did hear that as well. I don't remember where I heard that at. Where the hell did I hear that? But you know, that's why I wash my hands and just do it old school. Just wipe it on my own shirt to dry my hands. I mean, listen, it's fecal matter all around us. You got people that's full of feces. You got
Starting point is 00:08:45 people that don't properly wash their hands when they wipe and all kind of stuff. So, 95% of the stuff you probably touch on a daily basis has some type of fecal matter, E. coli on it. Alright, now, also, three employees at an L.A. fitness in New Jersey. Plenty of E. coli
Starting point is 00:09:01 in all gyms. This was in Secaucus, New Jersey, which is pretty close to the station here. There was two young brothers, and they're working out. And the guy was a member for eight years. He brought his friend to work out. And I guess the staff was like they didn't necessarily believe he actually had a membership. So they told him to re-scan himself in. So he re-scanned himself in, started to work out again.
Starting point is 00:09:21 And then the police were called, and they said that they're not sure if he's a real member. We have audio. LA Fitness C Caucus. Been having multiple problems with this club. I got my membership right here. I scanned in. I was asked to scan in again for no reason. And I have my membership.
Starting point is 00:09:36 I've been a member here for at least eight years. We got the cops here. You're not allowed to film here. Why not? Let's put that over here. Now we definitely are. Let's figure this out, all right? I do want to figure out.
Starting point is 00:09:44 We have all these police officers here for what reason? We're just here, man. I'm not going to take your face off. Only two black people in the gym have been having problems with this staff for months over nothing. 100% called corporate. Contract is being terminated. Because what? I don't have the answers for you.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Nobody knows. Now, they're saying the police showed up. They're saying the gym manager allegedly told the young brother that he had been banned from LA Fitness and his friend's membership has been terminated effective immediately. And then fast forward, it seems like the employee at the gym told him that the manager and two other employees have been fired as a result of the incident.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Oh, so he really wasn't banned? No, he wasn't banned, no. Oh, well, drop on the clues box for that, brother. And yes, I'm glad that they fired those people swiftly. Yeah, absolutely. Ain't nobody got time for that. And I, I'm glad that they fired those people swiftly. Yeah, absolutely. Ain't nobody got time for that. And I feel like that's some type of lawsuit. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:10:28 I pay for a membership and you make me. First, I wouldn't have scanned the second time. I would have told him to ask my D from the back. But then you might have liked it. That's a new exercise. What class is that? Jesus Christ. I wouldn't have scanned again.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Now, we'd have a problem. You had to call the police immediately. I've been here a member for eight years and and now you're going to make me scan? No. Absolutely. And I need a free membership for the rest of my life on top of this lawsuit that I'm about to hit y'all with since y'all want to inconvenience me so crazy. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:10:53 They must have got a new staff or something. I don't know. Well, that's front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning, or maybe you just want to spread some positivity. Whatever it may be. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning, or maybe you just want to spread some positivity. Whatever it may be.

Starting point is 00:11:34 I'm doing good, man. Get it off your chest, bro. Man, see, look, I'm mad at Mark Zuckerberg, right? Because I got, like, my name's Robbie. I'm out of St. Louis. I'll be through it. And I got, like, four Facebook pages. I have to keep going to Facebook. So yesterday, I made a post about getting my a** taped by a female. And she look, it didn't have no motherf***ing none.
Starting point is 00:11:54 It don't have. No cursing, man. No cursing. Why you start cursing so much? I'm cursing, man. Okay, okay. Don't curse. All right.
Starting point is 00:12:00 So I go to Facebook jail for 30 more days because, see, I just want to let y'all know, Mark Zuckerberg, he ain't nothing, man. I'm mad at Mark. I go to Facebook jail for 30 more days because I just want to let y'all know, Mark Zuckerberg, he ain't nothing there. I'm mad at Mark. You know why he sent you to Facebook jail? He sent you to Facebook jail because you like butt play. So you feel like you can get all the butt play you want in Facebook jail. Keyword jail.
Starting point is 00:12:18 My goodness. Hello, who's this? This is Laura Jackson. Hey, mama. Get it off your chest. Yes, I just started a new position at K-A-T-A-S here in Louisville, Kentucky. And I have a coworker who just rambles, keeps on talking while the instructor is trying to teach us their training and it's driving me crazy. I don't know what to do.
Starting point is 00:12:41 I can't help you, but I'm just going to let you vent, mama. Thank you. I appreciate that, DJ Envy. What's up, Charlamagne? Y'all have a good day. All right, boo. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Jay from Flint.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Hey, Jay, get it off your chest. You're from Flint? Well, yeah, I want to first say good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Okay, so I'm mad this morning because I just want to know how we got like seven episodes on Netflix, but we don't got no fresh water. Seven episodes on Netflix? I guess seven documentaries on Netflix
Starting point is 00:13:09 about Flint. Oh, okay. Yeah, we have Flinttown on Netflix. I mean, they just said the water was good and they're not going to send anyone bottle of water. Is that true? That's a lie, though. The water is definitely not good. The pipes are definitely not good. The water smells like sewage. It's dark in certain places. Don't get sewage. It's dark in certain places.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Like, don't get me wrong, it's better in some places than others, but it is not where it needs to be. They don't give us any more new water. They're wrapping lines around the blocks waiting for water. They run out. They take breaks. They're not serious about us. Meanwhile, they can drop all those missiles on Syria
Starting point is 00:13:40 that cost hundreds of millions of dollars but can't fix the pipes in Flint, Michigan. Exactly. And right here at home is a big problem where we fighting third world issues and there's nothing being handled. Yeah, I think they spent like $224 million bombing
Starting point is 00:13:56 Syria. They definitely... And for what? What are we bombing Syria for? Exactly. The total to replace Flint pipes was like $55 million. My goodness. They're not worried about it. They're out here chilling, and we're just suffering. The kids are aggressive. They got lead levels out the ass. It's crazy. America, your priorities are trash.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Absolutely. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Anthony. I'm driving to Mississippi right now. Super sleepy, but just wanted to say that I love listening to you guys and listen all the time. I got something that can help pick you up. You listening? Yeah, I'm listening right now. Alright, just sing along with me. M-I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I. Crooked letter, crooked letter, I.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Hump back, hump back, I. See, man, you don't even want to sing with me, man. Why you leave me hanging like that? You with a truck, bro, or you driving your car? Nah, I'm driving my car with my wife and my dog. Okay, well, be safe out there. If you get tired, pull over and take a nap. Alright, thanks. Alright, bro. Get it off your
Starting point is 00:14:53 chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Hello, who's this? Ariel. Ariel, get it off your chest. Okay, I'm upset because Twitter permanently submitted my account after the gay community attacked me for saying that I don't want my son to wear a prom, I mean, a prom dress if he wanted to prom. Why would your son want to wear a prom dress? And what that got to do with the LGBT community? No, they were saying because it was a boy who had on a prom dress for prom.
Starting point is 00:15:35 And I was like, oh, no, my son would, like, I would not pay for it if he wanted to wear a prom dress. And then after that, oh, my gosh, everybody just started attacking me. Well, that don't have nothing to do with the LGBT community, because Young Thug wears dresses. He might have just been, does he like to rap with Young Thug? I'm serious. I don't have a son. I was speaking hypothetically. Oh, what happened to you?
Starting point is 00:15:55 No, but if he wanted to wear a dress to prom, like, no, I'm not paying for that. Like, I'm not taking my son to go try on prom dresses. So you got your account suspended for a hypothetical conversation? No, them people attacked me, and then the girl reported my tweets and stuff,
Starting point is 00:16:11 and Twitter said I got to go for hateful behavior. Man, so that's what you get. You got your account suspended for a hypothetical situation. That sounds kind of crazy, though. I mean, come on. It's 2018. No, but for real, I can't voice my opinion, and everybody was calling me like, they could call me homophobic and stuff, but I can't call her a s***.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Like, that don't make no sense. That's the problem right there. But that's the problem. But she called me an aggressive fire. And then all I told her was, don't let her period stay in her boxes. And from there, my Twitter account disappeared. But you got into an argument over something that you don't even really have to fight in real life? Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:16:43 I wasn't trying to argue with them. It was my opinion. And I kept trying to get them to understand, man. I wasn't trying to argue with them. It was my opinion, and I kept trying to get them to understand that, but they didn't want to hear that. They just, all they heard was, I'm not letting my son wear a prom dress, and it's like, at the end of the day, that's my son, my coin, my choice.
Starting point is 00:16:55 You want me to tweet Jack and say, hey, could you please let this homophobic young lady get her account back? Yes, please, because I miss my little cousins. Bye, Mom. You don't have nothing to do without my Twitter. You got to create a new name. Hello, who's this? You should open up a Twitter account called the Iron D***. You stupid. Bye, Mom. You got to create. I don't have nothing to do without my Twitter. You got to create a new name. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:17:06 You should open up a Twitter account called The Iron D***. You stupid. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Tanya. Hey, Tanya. Get it off your chest. I want to get off my chest, and I'm not here to threaten anybody, but last week there was an incident, and my son was shot.
Starting point is 00:17:20 He did shoot back, and he killed the young young man and now his family is calling out for retaliation and the whole nine and my whole thing is the young man that died he not only was he shooting at my son but he was shooting at other people in the car and there was a child in the car and my son was actually protecting the baby in the car and I just feel like it's just so much violence and so much crime that they don't I understand that the family is hurt but I'm hurt too because my child is still laying up in the hospital. Is nobody going to call the police here? I haven't heard police mentioned in this scenario at all yeah. The police is involved my son is actually in the hospital on their alias name
Starting point is 00:17:59 because people are making threats and saying they're going to do this in the third and it's all just one big miss the boy was saying for two or three weeks he're going to do this in the third. And it's all just one big. The boy was saying for two or three weeks he was going to shoot my son. They used to hang out or whatever the case. And he rode up on my son to shoot him, to kill him. He didn't know my son had a gun. Somebody got to break the cycle of negativity, though, boo. Because it sounds like right now it's just going to be more revenge and more retaliation.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Somebody got to break that cycle. Yeah, you're right. But there's no getting through to them because they're hurt that the situation didn't turn out the way that they wanted it to or the way they thought it was going to. I hate to tell you to call the police, but that's who you need to get through to. No, I am. I am because I
Starting point is 00:18:40 probably have to end up getting a restraining order. Absolutely. Protect your family. Exactly. All right, Mama. Thank you. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can call us at any time. Now, when we come back, we got rumors.
Starting point is 00:18:53 We'll tell you what celebrity is sneaking around. And you'll want to know all about this. Sneaking around with another celebrity. We got them coming out of a building, and they look very happy. All right? We'll get into that when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:19:12 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk about a sneaky, sneaky radio personality. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. The rumor report. Angela Yee. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. All right. Well, let me tell you about this sneaky,
Starting point is 00:19:34 sneaky radio personality. Oh, God. Now, this sneaky, sneaky radio personality had to fly out to L.A. Didn't tell anybody why he was going to L.A. Kept him very hushed.
Starting point is 00:19:44 I'll never tell you why I'm going to L.A. You know, I was talking about you. Let me tell my story. Oh. All.A. Didn't tell anybody why he was going to L.A. Kept him very hushed. I'll never tell you how I'm going to L.A. You know I was talking about you. Let me tell my story. All right. He didn't tell anybody why he was going to L.A. He just went to L.A. He didn't tell anybody where he was.
Starting point is 00:19:53 And then all of a sudden, he was seen creeping, coming out of a building. Two individuals getting into the same car, leaving the place, both smiling. What's wrong with people smiling? After the whole Tristan Thompson scandal,
Starting point is 00:20:09 we were concerned about the... TMZ caught Charlamagne Tha God coming out of a building with no other than Kanye West. That's right, Kanye West and Charlamagne were coming out the same building. That wasn't a building. That was Kanye's offices. All right. So explain to the people what you were doing with Kanye sneaking and creeping coming out the building.
Starting point is 00:20:35 We wasn't sneaking. Like, yo, Kanye's been on The Breakfast Club, what, like twice? He came in 2013, once in 2015. You know, we've always had a good rapport with each other. You know, I heard some music, good rapport with each other. You know, I heard some music, but we weren't really building about music. We was just building about life. Like, you know, we grown with kids and
Starting point is 00:20:51 wives and we was talking about, you know, therapy, just grown man stuff. You know, we don't do that enough in our communities as men. You know, but, you know, you may or may not hear the conversation, you know, but I know I had Roscoe's chicken and waffles last night and I feel bloated this morning. I'm going to be honest with you. You should.
Starting point is 00:21:06 And I will say this, I'll give you all this much. Okay. He did hire me as his ghost tweeter. Oh, he did? Yes, so not only am I getting checks from Atlantic now, I'm getting checks from Kanye West to be his ghost tweeter. You dirty, dirty dog, you. I apologize, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:21:22 But you did hear some music? I heard some joints, I definitely did. I apologize. I'm sorry. But you did hear some music. I heard some joints. I definitely did. I heard some records. Okay. Not necessarily his music, though. All right. I heard not necessarily his music.
Starting point is 00:21:33 I heard some records, though. Since you want to act like Tristan Thompson right now, don't tell us nothing. Yo, Tristan Thompson about to drop an album, yo. He's doing an album called Ice-T. Oh, my goodness. It is going to be like the answer to lemonade, but it's going to be from the perspective of a cheating man who doesn't mind getting caught.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Oh, and you heard this project, huh? Oh, man, it's trash, though. My goodness. Tristan Thompson album, garbage. All right. Now, Rallo. Rallo, of course, is a rapper from Atlanta. You might remember him when Birdman did the,
Starting point is 00:22:01 oh, y'all finished or y'all done? He was actually up here with Birdman. He was arrested yesterday here with Birdman. He was arrested yesterday and charged with conspiracy to commit a felony in Georgia. So we don't know how many charges, if they found drugs, if they found guns, what actually they did find. But he is arrested and Rallo is in jail. Adrian Broner, he matches Tekashi's $300,000. Now, if you don't know, Tekashi bet him $300,000 that he was going to lose.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Well, Adrian Broner wrote a $300,000 check and said he will match that money, and he said he wants to pull up in Brooklyn anywhere. I don't like this, and the reason I don't like this is because I feel like, you know, Adrian Broner needs to be really, really focused for his matchup that he has against, I think he's fighting Jesse Vargas this weekend, if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, Vargas. Yeah, Jesse Vargas. You know what I mean? And I just feel like he needs to be really, really, really focused. This is kind of a do or die fight
Starting point is 00:22:53 for Adrian Broner. It is. Adrian Broner loses this fight. I don't know where his boxing career is going to go. But, you know, we haven't seen Broner in the last, what, couple of months, so maybe he hasn't been taking it serious. He's focused. He looks in shape.
Starting point is 00:23:09 Salute to all my people at Showtime, Showtime Boxing. But I just don't want to see him being distracted with beefing with rappers on the week of a fight. Get focused, AB. Well, he posted a picture of the check and said, I want to pull up in Brooklyn. And 6ix9ine responded, you're a bum. AB gets money, though. I don't think people realize AB promotes
Starting point is 00:23:25 fighters, too, though. Yeah. So sometimes you be watching fighters, and they fight under about billions promotions, and AB be getting them six-figure checks from that. Okay. Alright, and that is your rumor report. Now, when we come back, Kiki Palmer will be joining us, so we'll kick it with Kiki Palmer when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast
Starting point is 00:23:41 Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Kiki Palmer can't see you, Envy. I know. I'm trying to make eye contact. I'm trying to get on in, make eye contact.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Now I'm about to be hella close to you, Charlamagne. You have a book out also. Yes, I do. I Don't Belong To You, Quiet The Noise, Find Your Voice. It's been out for, I guess it's been a year and a half now, almost two years. You know, talking about a lot of different things, my life being kind of the backdrop I feel of, well, I should say the industry being the backdrop of like, I feel like what we all go through in life. Coming of age, understanding your parents as just people, you know, mental health, all that kind of stuff. What do you mean just people? Your parents are just people? Because I feel like when you, as you're growing up, you sometimes put so much weight on your parents to be perfect.
Starting point is 00:24:28 And then as you get older, you realize, oh, maybe I should forgive my parents for some of the mistakes I feel they made. Because, I mean, what did I expect for them to do? Know how to do everything. I don't think anybody knows how to be a perfect parent. They raised you well, though, Kiki. Girl, stop. They did. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:24:42 They did a good job. And you've been really open and honest about a lot of things. I saw an interview you did the other day where you talked about struggling with anxiety and depression, which is something that a lot of people have been having issues and finally being more open about it. You've been checking for...
Starting point is 00:24:57 I like the grill. Yeah, yeah. Come on, man. Black Covington Post. We just had Amy Du Bois Barnett up here from the grill. Yeah, the grill's dope. I thought that was important because it is a situation a lot of people are grappling with and they haven't been so open about it in the past. Yeah. I mean, for me, I started
Starting point is 00:25:13 realizing and naming that stuff when I was about like 17. I started really feeling that, you know, anxiety, depression, and kind of coming up with those themes. And I started looking up quotes to kind of find a way to cope with what I was dealing with. Quotes always helped me to feel like you ain't alone.
Starting point is 00:25:28 It ain't just you going through this. And so I started posting them on my social media. And that's actually what inspired me to do my talk show was I saw that so many of my peers were being like, oh, my gosh, I feel the same way. Or, yes, I'm reposting this. I'm like, wow, like this is something that people been dealing with forever. Then I talked to my mom about it. I'm like, my mom like, this is something that people been dealing with forever. Then I talk to my mom about it and I'm like, my mom has dealt with anxiety. So a lot
Starting point is 00:25:48 of times stuff is within your family. But if you never named it, if you didn't, if you came from an era where people didn't really talk about therapy or, you know, then all that stuff is just like a joke to you. It's just kind of like, what the hell? You know, you're just lazy. No, she depressed. I just got a grasp on it in the past year because I've been
Starting point is 00:26:03 dealing with anxiety my whole life, so I started to go to therapy for it. But, you know, because when you grow up a certain way, she depressed. I just got a grasp on it in the past year because I've been dealing with anxiety my whole life. So I started to go to therapy for it. But, you know, because when you grow up a certain way, you think it's just normal to be paranoid. Yes. You know what I mean? Because I'm doing things I ain't got no business doing. So I just think that comes with the territory. But no.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Are you still paranoid? Not necessarily paranoid. I just have, like, irrational fears. Like, I'll see someone on the news and think it's going to happen. That's what I'm saying. It's also America. I think we have a lot of stuff through the media
Starting point is 00:26:26 that really makes us paranoid. You got people talking about something they're going to have to teach us bringing guns to school so now you got to worry about your teacher pulling out a gun on your son. And then also capitalism
Starting point is 00:26:35 or now corporatism because you have a situation where you work and work and work and then sometimes you end up feeling like I'm working for what? Sometimes in America we put so much emphasis on work that we forget to put emphasis on family.
Starting point is 00:26:47 I have a real problem with that. I spend time with my family or friends, and I'm hanging out, and I feel like, you are not working hard. I get so much guilt because I've been working since I was a kid. You know what I mean? That's all that I know. And that's also what our world praises. What our country particularly praises is working to the grit. You sleep, but you die. Exactly. But it's like, that's also what our world praises. What our country particularly praises is working to the grit. You sleep when you die.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Exactly. But it's like, that's kind of terrible. Like, you got to also take a break and learn how to also, you know, vacationing is just as important as working. Damn right. For me, it's just turn the phones off. Just enjoy my home. Go outside. That's a hard one.
Starting point is 00:27:20 Yes, it is. Ooh, that was hard. That one feels like a punishment. I'll be in my facial leg. My therapist says that all the time. Like, why don't you just turn your phone off?
Starting point is 00:27:28 I'm like, it ain't that easy. But honestly, he's right because the phones and specifically social media is a huge trigger for anxiety and depression because the whole thing about social media
Starting point is 00:27:37 is getting liked or not. Somebody don't like your stuff. You may not even feel like, you may be the coolest, chillest person in the world, but just the way that social media is set up you will find yourself being like dang I thought this was gonna be a hit 100k views I thought this interview was at least gonna get that many likes and then when it don't you find yourself being like what?
Starting point is 00:27:57 Did I say dad do something? Oh, what more could I've done and then that's things like you said those are the irrational thoughts Like maybe people just didn't see it like maybe, maybe it wasn't that it wasn't good. It just didn't get that. You know what I mean? Like, you overthink stuff. But, so, turning your phone off is actually, it's a good thing, but it's hard. How did you know anxiety and depression was an issue for you, though?
Starting point is 00:28:15 So, I was working on my TV show, and this is when, like, I was trying to just kind of keep my head leveled. And I just started not being able to kind of keep my bad thoughts out. Negative thoughts started to really just fill my head, and I didn't know how to control them. So I reached out to my attorney, and he was talking to me. He was like, you know, I think you need to tell your parents. You know, you need to let them know that you really, maybe you want to see somebody.
Starting point is 00:28:37 I've dealt with a lot of different clients that have endured this kind of thing, and I think you just need to talk to somebody. So I'm like, okay. And then just to tell you something else, after that phone call, I was working on my show, True Jackson VP, and I ended up getting a phone call from this 12-digit number. It was really weird. I'm like, who is this calling me?
Starting point is 00:28:55 I'm just ignoring this call or whatever like this. A couple hours later, and I listen to the voicemail, and it's Will Smith. And he's like, Kiki, it's me, Will. I heard that you were going through a lot, and I just want to let you know, you know, everything that you're going through, we all go through it. You just keep working hard, staying focused and you'll get through. You know what I'm saying? Like you're just growing. I'm out here right now in Hong Kong filming Karate Kid with Jaden. And I just want to let you know. And I'm just like, whoa, you know, so that let me know,
Starting point is 00:29:21 one, everybody go through stuff. So guess what? It's all right. You're normal. So after that, after that conversation, after that phone call, that made me feel confident enough to be like, you know what? It's okay to not feel all right. And so then I started, like I said, I loved quotes. So I started putting in words that eventually found, I found the defining word of stress, of anxiety, and of depression. And I always liken that to like, y'all remember that movie Conjuring? Yeah, I love that movie.
Starting point is 00:29:50 I always talk about that movie. That's one of the scariest movies. That movie is scary, but it also really can apply to real life. Meaning, when you name the demons in your life, then you can eradicate them. But before you name them, they can haunt you forever. Like you're saying, now that you know that it was anxiety, you can just say, oh, that's that anxiety. That's that Jiminy Cricket in my head going on. And it's over with.
Starting point is 00:30:12 But when you don't know how to name something, you blame everything on you. And that's my biggest problem with how people treat folks in the black community. And I'm not going to say the black community. I'll say the impoverished community. People that are not allowed to have the same resources based off of economic values. Because you can't blame people for having ignorance when they don't have any other
Starting point is 00:30:32 way to gain any other knowledge. That's really an issue that you can only be smart in America if you have money. If you can't go to the greatest school, your school won't have the best information if you don't have the money for it. So then you want to blame the people. But it's like if those same people lived in Beverly
Starting point is 00:30:47 Hills and had the best education and all this other stuff, then they wouldn't be making those same choices. They would know that they had more choices. So I hate that. That's when you're able to really recognize its deeper issues when you do have money. When you are quote unquote successful, you're like, well, why do I still feel like this?
Starting point is 00:31:04 And that is 100 percent true. And that's what a lady said to me one time when I started getting into meditation and yoga. She said, you know, you know, people be like she was very dramatic. She's like, when you help yourself, you help your ancestors. I'm like, what the heck is this lady talking about? You help yourself, you help your ancestors. And so as I started helping myself and started naming the things in my life, then my mama say, I've had anxiety all my life. My mama's 50 years old.
Starting point is 00:31:28 She just now is able to name what the thing that has been worrying her forever. You know what I'm saying? So when you help yourself, you really do then be able to relieve other people of stress that they didn't even know what they was carrying. All right, we have more with Kiki Palmer when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:31:46 The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Kiki Palmer in the building. Charlamagne? It's interesting because I don't look at you as a child star. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Even though you are. Even though I'm going to say yeah. But that's great. That means that you feel like, wow, she's evolved. Yeah. That's why you came to the defense of Bow Wow. Okay. Let's talk about that.
Starting point is 00:32:12 Because I did not watch the full interviews, Charlamagne. But I know that you was trying to drag my boy Bow Wow. I wasn't. I wasn't. I wasn't. This is what I hate. I just want Bow Wow to stop lying so much. But every rapper do that. Stop playing, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Every rapper and everybody in the industry always puts extras on it. You think everybody bought every car? Everybody bought every jet? No, of course not. But don't Google search an image and post it. He said he got caught. He said he messed up. He got caught up, but look. Okay, so maybe he just went a little cheap
Starting point is 00:32:39 with the way he did it. Was a little bit too quick about it, but you know why? He didn't think that everybody was going to be checking on him like that. But let's just talk about this. Let's talk about Bow Wow being relevant since the time that he was 11 years old. We still talk about Bow Wow to this day. Bow Wow has been able to transcend from being a top rapper to being a major influence. And people didn't even want to give him his credit with the Scream Tour.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Like, I really think he really should get credit for that. He was one of those young people that said, yo, let's get all the young folks together and let's do something major. Like, that's inspiring, too. Like, he cared about not just himself, but also his community,
Starting point is 00:33:12 his peers. Bow Wow became an actor. He, like Mike, that was, come on, everybody want them braids. Blee, like Lil Bow Wow. Like, I think the internet has such a short memory.
Starting point is 00:33:23 They do? And that, we've got to stop it. Because if Bow Wow was gone tomorrow, everybody was going to put on their page, little Bow Wow. You just don't, get that dude his flowers right here. Quit playing with me.
Starting point is 00:33:33 No, I told him, I said, you know, because when he posted that picture to Private Jet, he was in first class, on his way to New York to do promo for a show he's executive producing. Why can't that be enough? I'm serious. Why is that that be enough? I'm serious. Why is that not good enough for him? You know why?
Starting point is 00:33:47 Because maybe he's still in that old school hip hop mindset. He's kind of like an old head, young head. You get what I'm saying? So imagine. He's been around so long. Seriously. I promise you guys. Imagine if Bow Wow was really the age of his success.
Starting point is 00:34:00 We would be like Uncle Bow Wow doing the same stuff. You know what I'm saying? Like Bow Wow would be like 50 years old in hip hop world. And so that's what a 50 year old would do. So I think sometimes he might be still in that old hip hop mind and the times have moved up quicker. Like he ain't thinking that people is going to be Googling that stuff. I'm not saying you got to let go of the fact that you were Bow Wow, but you kind of got to let go. You're Shad Moss.
Starting point is 00:34:22 But I do understand that too. I do understand that too. I do understand that too. Evolution is a real thing. And understanding that brand shift is a real thing. And deciding to say, you know what, I'm going to completely walk into that new zone, or if I want to keep a little bit of that old zone, finding that balance,
Starting point is 00:34:38 it can be difficult. And again, growing up as a child entertainer, people don't understand your identity. That identity thing, identity is already a thing. People don't realize how quickly it is for them to either get lost in who they think they want to be or get lost in who they actually are. And when you grow up in an industry constantly telling you who you should be or what you could be, as a kid, it can be hard to decide who you want to be.
Starting point is 00:35:03 So I think people sometimes really should give child, I know people want to say, you've been rich since you was a kid, or y'all been rich. First of all, that's not true. And then second of all, everybody has stuff. Imagine if you didn't have no type of social dynamics. You went to, first of all, as a child entertainer, everybody always
Starting point is 00:35:19 love you. The first time that you meet somebody that don't like you, that can be traumatic. Yeah, or when they're not chasing you out the mall. And not to say that that should be traumatic, but think about it, that's all you've known. If all you knew was being the best and being the dopest and being the coolest
Starting point is 00:35:35 and the first time somebody say, I don't like you, it can be difficult because that's a shock to you. But most kids been bullied, you know, from the time that they walk into school, you know what I'm saying? We're used to it. Exactly. A lot of stuff that everybody else is used to, sometimes people that grow up in a bubble, they are not.
Starting point is 00:35:51 And that's not mean you should baby them, but it's just we should be able to understand where each other is coming from. You think these kids are too soft now? Because we talk about bullying a lot. I remember, I mean, I'm sure Charlamagne was the bully, but being bullied in school, it was something that you just dealt with. Charlamagne, how many kids you bullied? Well, first of all, hurt people hurt people.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Exactly. You was bullied too. I used to get bullied. I know you was bullied. I know it. So I had to combat them. It's all over his face. I know.
Starting point is 00:36:13 It was either get joked on or joke back. What about the slow kid that you bullied and he turned around and slapped you? I hate the people that bully the slow kids. He didn't slap me. He choked me. See? And I'm thrilled for it. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:36:24 He caught me. I'm here for it. That was a mean headlock. I thought it was over. He didn't slap me, he choked me out. And I'm thrilled for it. Oh no, he caught me. That was a mean headlock. I thought it was over. He said that was a... No, but people don't know that a lot of times autistic children
Starting point is 00:36:30 are extremely short. Yes, we know. I know. For real. I've never said it for real. But you think these kids are too soft or the way we're raising them
Starting point is 00:36:38 is too soft where every time there's a problem or situation, they cry, they feel depressed instead of telling them, you know what, fight back or talk back. Yeah, you know, I was
Starting point is 00:36:46 bullied in school, but at a very young age. Like, I was bullied in kindergarten. I was the only black kid in my class, and I used to be sad about it and cry about it, but no, I didn't think about killing myself or something like this. And I think, really, I think it's the media. I think a lot of times people think, like, if you've seen that TV show, y'all heard of that show 13 Reasons Why? Yes.
Starting point is 00:37:02 So when a girl, you know, it's kind of, it kind of, I thought it was a well-done project, but I did feel like it also kind of glamorized suicide. Meaning, I think a lot of people think that they will get attention with this suicide stuff. And I think it's just an extreme temper tantrum. So I feel like what's happening with social media is the media,
Starting point is 00:37:17 what people see, they're really allowing it to trigger their actions. And so I think a lot of times, being a young person, we naturally think that what's happening in the moment is going to last forever. As you get older, you realize, tomorrow this will be cool, or in a couple weeks I forget this ever happened, and today's going to be all right.
Starting point is 00:37:35 But when you're a teenager, y'all remember when we was teenagers, everything seemed like, he hates me. She'll never talk to me again. I hate my life. And then you go online and you see someone killed themselves. That's how it can be over. That's what I'm going to do. And then it's over. For real. You're making permanent decisions based off temporary
Starting point is 00:37:54 feelings. But I think every case is different too for every person. Some kids handle things differently. Some process things differently. Some people have different situations at home or whatever. I also think it's like what she said because it's the suicide thing is one of those things where people feel like get those attention. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:38:08 Because as a kid, when I was bullied and I came home, my dad was like, our word, well, you're going to go back and whoever did the bully, you're going to punch them in the face and I'm going to stay in there to make sure you don't get jumped. And that's the same advice I tell my son. If my son ever got bullied, I'm like, all right, you go back and you handle it yourself. You're not going to sit there crying in the corner. But you were fortunate enough and your son is fortunate enough to have a dad at home to be like, this is what we're going to do. Some people don't have anybody.
Starting point is 00:38:27 I think it ultimately is a cry for help. When somebody is wanting to do, everything is based off of wanting, you know what I mean? Not to put it like that, but attention. People want to be heard. People want somebody to feel bad for what they're doing to them. I want you to feel bad for what you're doing to me. But the reality is, is don't nobody feel bad. You know, and that's what I felt like wasn't necessarily captured.
Starting point is 00:38:46 I mean, I feel like it was a little bit captured in that movie, 13 Reasons Why. But it's like, unfortunately, people have to learn how to love themselves. You don't matter even if you kill yourself. The same people that bullied you, they might say, good luck. They might say, glad they're gone. So the killing yourself is not the problem solver to people feeling compassionate towards you. The problem is we have to teach people, the young people, how to feel compassion towards themselves. Now, did you and other Trey Songz ever get cool again?
Starting point is 00:39:12 Man, you know, I've not talked to that guy. Was it a misunderstanding? Because you accused him of sexual intimidation last year. You know, it wasn't a misunderstanding. She told his story of what? I tell my truth. And, you know, I just thought it was real interesting that after all those things went down, someone else had something to say.
Starting point is 00:39:26 So, I don't like when people think that somebody is just going to be saying something just to say it. First of all, I love black people. I love my people. You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to try to ever tear nobody down. Try to tear no black man down. That's not who I am. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:39:39 Like, that's not what I stand for. That's not what I'm about. So, if I say something, I'm saying something for a reason. And I feel like so many times black women say stuff and nobody gives a shit, excuse my language, when sometimes black women say something. But somebody of another complexion, somebody of another color, they say something and then
Starting point is 00:39:56 it's like, we're taking it to court. It's time to get serious. Hashtag me too. No. It's not cool. It's not cool because that's not how it should be. I'm tired of, I think people have such a perception of a black woman being so strong that we're just supposed to take anything thrown at us.
Starting point is 00:40:11 And then when we don't, we're weak. Well, no, I'm supposed to get beat down by everybody that comes near me? No, I'll be that bee. If that means I have to stand for me and I have to show other young women that you should not let people take advantage of you no matter who they are. I don't care if it was the goddamn president.
Starting point is 00:40:27 I'd still post it. Did he apologize? Did he reach out and apologize? No. At the end of the day, how I feel about it is, look, it's over. It's done. But at least anybody else knows I won't be tried. People can say what they want about it.
Starting point is 00:40:38 You can think I'm trying to like, I wish that brother nothing but the best. God bless you, man. I'm glad that the other stuff was pushed out. I'm glad if you, you know, whatever your success is that come, I don't want nobody to do bad, but we all be drinking. We all be doing stuff. We all be sometimes under influence, whatever. You never know. Sometimes
Starting point is 00:40:53 people don't mean it. Things happen, whatever. At the end of the day, I don't wish nobody no ill, but I gotta be down for me. If I'm gonna be down for anybody, I've got to be down for me. So, that's all it's about. All right, now let's get into Kiki Palmer's record. It's called Bossy.
Starting point is 00:41:08 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Bossy from Kiki Palmer. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Kiki Palmer's in the building. Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:41:20 Do you feel that with everything that's going on with the Time's Up, Me Too movement, you think positive steps are being taken towards gender equality? Somewhat, but the reality is as long as young women and men, because I think a lot of people want to think that the Me Too thing is just about women. But I really love what my boy Terry Crews came out and said, because a lot of young cats, a lot of young dudes are being tried, but don't want to say it. It's unfortunate that so many people made fun of him. Which is lame, because I know a lot of guys that be tried in the industry.
Starting point is 00:41:47 You know what I'm saying? Like, that's a real thing, and that's not cool either. So I do feel like at the end of the day, as long as people accept that kind of behavior, that's going to keep going on, man. I think it's cool that people are speaking out, you know, but somewhere, you know, I'm not going to lie and say I feel like somebody is saying, I'll never tell. Give me this gag.
Starting point is 00:42:06 You know, so I feel like people put in those positions have to be stronger than their disbelief in what they can accomplish. All this type of stuff stems from you being scared, you not knowing. So we have to empower our young women and men to say, look, when you're putting these positions, don't be quiet. Don't be quiet. So I think, yes, some people are inspired to speak out, and I hope that this inspires other people to speak out because that's the only way it will stop. As long as we have people that will be quiet
Starting point is 00:42:31 or that are afraid of being shamed or afraid of what's going to happen, then this type of thing is going to be going on for a long time. So we have to continue this speaking out thing. Have you been tried? I've been tried, yeah. I've been tried. You know, the levels in which I've been tried,
Starting point is 00:42:47 I mean, there's so many different levels you can be tried. You can be really tried. You can be tried. You can be tried. So I think I've been tried. Tried as it was. Is it an advance or somebody trying to touch you? Oh, an advance.
Starting point is 00:42:58 An advance or in a room full of people trying to be sick. Massage your neck? No, trying to kiss me on my mouth and me saying no. No, no, no. I mean, I've been in a situation. No, trying to kiss me on my mouth and me saying no, no, no. I mean, I've been in situations. No, try to kiss me on my mouth. Pulling my head, trying to kiss me on my mouth. I've experienced that before.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Where your mama at? I'm grown. My mama wasn't there. She's always with her mom. That's recent. You think mama with her everywhere? I'm not there. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:43:17 My mama wasn't there. You know what I'm saying? But that was definitely a very intense situation for me and embarrassing. What happened to him? That's when she hid in the closet, I think. You know, I just want y'all to know one day, because people always want to know about that situation. One day I'm going to do a Dave Chappelle,
Starting point is 00:43:33 like how Dave Chappelle did to Rick James. I'm going to go ahead and give a reenactment of that moment. It's very funny. There's no humor in that, though. Oh, my gosh. You know why? You got to make humor. You got to make humor.
Starting point is 00:43:43 And that's another thing about me. Sometimes people think I'm really, really serious. But I'm able to talk about serious topics. I'm definitely able to address serious things and speak on them. But I'm also able to laugh at them. Because in life, crazy stuff gonna keep happening. Has anybody ever offered you a job if you wouldn't sleep with them? Or anything like that?
Starting point is 00:44:00 No, that's never happened before. But people don't do stuff like that. It'll more so be like, you know, I mean, at least in my experience of what I thought or what I felt was different or weird energy, it wasn't done like that. It's stuff like, you know, don't sue me, Charlamagne. It's stuff like
Starting point is 00:44:16 I think you're going to play. I think you're going to play. Stuff like that. It took me back to a bad place. I've had that happen to me before. He did look hard back just now. It did happen to him. What the hell, though? I've been mentored.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Stop! You're kidding me. No, for real, for real. I believe you, though. I'm telling you. No, I believe. And I... Trust me.
Starting point is 00:44:35 I've heard some things. And I don't know why I don't say nothing. I don't know why I don't say nothing. That's why I understand where women be coming from. Because you feel embarrassed. Yeah, so why don't you say something, Chalamet? Because you feel embarrassed. It's scary, y'all say something, Shalama? Because you feel embarrassed. It's scary, y'all.
Starting point is 00:44:46 It is a hard thing, though. You can't ever tell people when to come forward with their story until they're comfortable. And it's embarrassing. And you just shamed me just now.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Nobody said nothing. What'd he say? I didn't hear him. Because you liked it. And you are the problem. You are the problem. You know what I'm saying? I'm a victim.
Starting point is 00:45:01 Shalama, you think you'll ever tell your story? I think I will. Write your book. Do you have a book out? I got a book out. You didn't put it in there? No.
Starting point is 00:45:10 Oh. No. But you know what? The reality of the situation is it's humiliating. People just immediately want to say, especially if the person is beloved. Right. If the person is beloved, get ready for a whole load of hate, baby. Because people immediately assume that that's what you were there for and you wanted it
Starting point is 00:45:25 and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and all these other type of things like that. And, you know... That is true, though, because you see them sometimes and you're like, ugh, I ain't telling nobody about that. Right. Well, personally, people don't like me that much. I ain't telling nobody about that. No, seriously. And that's how, that's why people, even if we take it to a
Starting point is 00:45:41 deeper, more realistic, not want to say realistic, but you know, everybody's not in the industry. But if you take it to just, you know, you were want to say realistic, but you know everybody's not in the industry. But if you take it to just, you know, you were going on a date and you were raped. You know what I'm saying? You did like that guy. You did go to his house. You did want him to touch you. Y'all did have some drinks.
Starting point is 00:45:56 But you did not want him to rape you. You know what I'm saying? It's such a fine line. But people feel like if you did like somebody, that that warranted them. People have been raped by their husbands. There's so many levels to these kinds of conversations that I don't think that we're having that allow young women to know that there's not one way to say I was harassed or I felt like my boundaries were crossed.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Your boundaries are crossed when you feel uncomfortable. Let's go back to your grill article real quick. You said that people with your skin complexion being shown as beautiful in Hollywood, you didn't really see that growing up. Do you think that's changed? A little bit. And I do think that social media plays a part, right? Because now corporations aren't the only people that decide who you get to see.
Starting point is 00:46:37 So that changes things a lot. Because sometimes, you know, corporate-owned companies, their idea of beauty is only one way. So for me, I feel like growing up, I didn't have any other options other than the magazines. And the magazines often did not show women of my complexion. I think that's why I loved Brandy so much. Here's a girl. She's a cover girl. She's, you know, has her own show.
Starting point is 00:46:58 She's a top singer. And she's dark. She's my complexion. You know what I'm saying? That's also why I loved Aaliyah. You know, I love looking at Aaliyah. She looked like she just had a little perm in, straightened her hair on out. You know what I'm saying? That's also why I loved Aaliyah. You know, I love looking at Aaliyah. She looked like she just had a little perm in, straightened her hair on out. You know what I'm saying? I knew that girl
Starting point is 00:47:10 in my neighborhood. That girl in my neighborhood was Dee Dee. Everybody loved her. You know what I'm saying? So I felt like when I got into the industry, oh, I can be one of those people. And then I started to learn that, oh, this is why I didn't see that many people. Because corporate doesn't always acknowledge these people.
Starting point is 00:47:27 You know what I'm saying? I've done a lot of things in my career. I would never brag on myself because I'm not a bragger. And I'm also very grateful that I've even been able to still work. But it's like, you know, I was the first black Cinderella on Broadway. You know, I had the number one show on Nickelodeon, True Jackson VP. The youngest person to ever have their own talk show. You know, written a book, all these different things.
Starting point is 00:47:44 The only magazine that's ever put me on the cover is Essence. Wow. I'm not crying about that. That's not a sad thing to me, but we have to also understand when we put in these positions that, look, at the end of the day, don't ask or beg for people to acknowledge you or to love you. You know, if I don't get nominated for an Oscar ever,
Starting point is 00:48:02 if I don't get nominated for a Grammy ever, I'm good with NAACP. I'm good. I'm good with the BET Awards. Go where you're celebrated. I'm good with the BET Awards. Why you turn to Martin Luther King just now? Your voice so good.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Why you voice so good? No, I really did turn into. I was like, Martin Luther King Jr even possess you? I'm good. She said, I'm beyond good. I was like,
Starting point is 00:48:29 okay. God, that killed me. I hope you get another shot at a talk show, Kiki. Oh my gosh. I really do. Charlamagne,
Starting point is 00:48:38 would you come on and do some stuff with me? Yeah, of course. You would be awesome. I used to watch your show. I saw when you had Kendra G on there. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You could do it with your own version of something, whatever You would be awesome. I used to watch your show. I saw when you had Kendra G on there. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Yeah, yeah, yeah. With your own version of something, whatever it would be, I think you would be definitely the kids. Kids love hearing from you. Kids. You love trying to drag the millennials at times, but you know, we need another.
Starting point is 00:48:55 I'm a grumpy old man sometimes. But you're doing these random acts of kindness too. Oh my gosh, yes. Shout out Saving Our Daughters. And just in general, I love going to the community. You know, there was a time where I was the same age as the people in the schools that I was going to, and. Sat out saving our daughters. And just in general, I love going to the community. You know, there was a time where I was the same age as the people in the schools that I was going to.
Starting point is 00:49:11 And now I'm starting to be about the auntie age. That's a little hard to accept. But, you know, I'm always about inspiring the community. My mom taught me at a young age that people have to see what it is I'm doing so they know that it's possible for them. So I'm always trying to make myself accessible in those ways. Word. Well, there you have it. Kiki Palmer, it's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. J. Cole drops tonight, right? Yeah, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk about J. Cole.
Starting point is 00:49:44 This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Now, J. Cole, he shared his KOD album cover and track list. It looks like he has 12 songs and there's only one feature. It's somebody named Kill Edward. Kill Edward? Yeah, so of course his fans have been doing their homework,
Starting point is 00:50:05 and they found a snippet of Kill Edward online, and let's play a snippet of Kill Edward. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Huh. Can we vibe just a little? That would be a drink come true. Ain't gonna lie, just like a fee, I've been feeling you Just a little
Starting point is 00:50:27 First of all, how do you find a snippet online of a song that's not been released yet? Well, this is supposed to be just a reference track of somebody named Kill Edward, and they believe that's his alter ego, and that he's really Kill Edward, because it kind of sounds like him, so that's what his fans are saying right now. I ain't got time for all of this, man. Just give me the goddamn music. See, that's when you know you're just young and you got time to do stuff like him, so that's what his fans are saying right now. I ain't got time for all of this, man. Just give me the goddamn music. See, that's when you know that's just me. That's when you know you're just young and you got time to do stuff like that. Okay?
Starting point is 00:50:50 Search for whoever the hell Kill Edward is. Just give me the goddamn music, please. Well, they found his SoundCloud page, and that's what they've been saying. Also. You know what's interesting? I was talking. Never mind. What?
Starting point is 00:50:59 You was talking to him. Yesterday when I was talking to Ye, we had a conversation about J. Cole. He said he feels like J. Cole. Remember when J. Cole put out the False Prophets record? Yes. And he said that he feels like J. Cole's always dissing him in records. About the one shots at J. Cole? Yeah, and he named another line.
Starting point is 00:51:17 What was the other line? Something from reality shows? Oh, yeah, yeah. He was like, who else out here in love with people from reality shows like me? So that was just an interesting thing. And he didn't say it in a malice way at all. He was, you know, laughing about it.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Well, let's talk Nicki Minaj. She's gonna perform on SNL's season finale. That's May 19th, so all the Bobs out there, get ready for that. She's gonna be performing both her new singles Barbie Tings and Chun-Li. On SNL? Yep. Okay, so she must have got an album on the way.
Starting point is 00:51:49 You don't do that kind of promo unless you got an album about to drop. And they debuted on Billboard Hot 100 at number 92 and 83. So what day is that? May 19th. They debuted at 92 and 83? On Billboard 100. Yep. Why you say it like that?
Starting point is 00:52:06 I feel like Nicki Records should chart higher than that. Well, I don't know. Especially for all the noise that those records made last week. I'm just telling you what they do. What's on this paper right here. 92 and 83. That don't sound right. What is that?
Starting point is 00:52:18 Billboard Hot 100? Yep. Billboard Hot 100. That's at the bottom, damn near. It debuted at numbers 83 and 92, respectively. You need to show more respect to your people from Queens and play the records in the mix, Sidney. I do.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I play Chun-Li. Okay. Chun-Li is dope. I have no problems with Chun-Li, even though I still don't know what Laura Bencroft means. Laura Bencroft. I don't know. Do you hear me?
Starting point is 00:52:39 Yes. Laura Bencroft. I heard you. Okay, just making sure. Now, let's talk about this guy that doesn't allegedly like to have sex. He just likes to pet. Hey, man, Laura Bencroft. I heard you. Okay, just making sure. Now, let's talk about this guy that doesn't allegedly like to have sex. He just likes to pet. Hey, man, Laura Bencroft. I'm not talking, you know what?
Starting point is 00:52:50 Now, jurors in the Bill Cosby sexual assault retrial heard yesterday that Bill Cosby told cops, he says, I like petting. I don't like intercourse. And what's wrong with that? When he was asked, the police baron said, so you never had sexual intercourse with the young lady? He says, never, never asleep nor awake. Well, he replied wrong. He should have replied back, Laura Bancroft.
Starting point is 00:53:11 My gosh. He says, why didn't you have sexual intercourse? Cosby said, I don't like it. Laura Bancroft. You better stop. He told the police that he never initiated sex, allegedly, and he just wanted to pet her. That's it. Because Laura B Bencroft.
Starting point is 00:53:29 Now, the young lady also, there was rumor that she told a staffer at Temple University that one time she was sharing a hotel room, that she'd seen it on TV, and this was going to make her rich. She was going to be able to quit her job and get that money. So one of the staffers at Temple University allegedly saying this lady is lying and the things that she's saying is not true. Oh, so she saw on TV that she could get a come up from saying that Bill Cosby, Laura Bancroft,
Starting point is 00:53:50 and so she decided to Laura Bancroft, Bill Cosby. Allegedly. What you telling me? Allegedly. Got you. Allegedly. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:56 And that is your rumor report. Now, shout out to Mike. Yes. Who are you giving that down? I need Gregory Owens to come to the front of the congregation. I'd like to have a word with him.
Starting point is 00:54:05 You don't know who Gregory Owens is, but Gregory Owens is eligible to eat off the IHOP senior menu, and I don't know why he ruined that blessing, but we'll talk about it. Okay, we'll get into that when we come back. Also, Angelie is out. So, as C&E, if you need relationship advice or any type of advice, 800-585-1051. Hit us up right now.
Starting point is 00:54:24 We'll help you with all your relationship advice. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day at Jungle Mate. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed up. So like a donkey. Keyhole.
Starting point is 00:54:39 Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but donkey of the day is a new one. Donkey of the day for Thursday, April 19th goes to a Mobile, Alabama man named Gregory Owens. Now, Gregory is
Starting point is 00:54:55 55 years old, and he recently got sentenced to 10 years in prison. Not just 10 years in prison, but when he gets out, which he probably won't because he'll probably die in prison. But when he gets out, which he probably won't because he'll probably die in prison, but when he gets out, okay, he will then have five years of supervised release on charges related to a 2017 bank robbery. Yes, this 55-year-old grown-ass man robbed a bank last year, and he pled guilty.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Now, I don't know why this OG decided to rob a bank. Clearly, times are hard in the slums he's from. I just feel it is a definite statue of limitations for certain crimes, and robbing a bank at gunpoint is definitely one of them. Do you know how stupid set it off would have been if Stoney, Frankie, T.T., and Cleo were 55 years old? Imagine the devil damn Golden Girls trying to rob a bank at gunpoint. That's how set it off would have looked, okay?
Starting point is 00:55:43 In fact, this guy Gregory Owens is an old Alabama 55. Okay, I'm looking at his mugshot. 55 don't really look like this anymore unless you have had a rough life, okay? A life of pork and liquor, all right? And it's clear that Gregory Owens has had a rough 55 years
Starting point is 00:56:00 in Mobile, Alabama. He's 55, but his physical appearance is more like 97. Okay, 97 and a half, and that's a 97 and a half with diabetes, alright? Okay? By the way, so when this old man pulls up on you with a gun demanding money, you would hesitate.
Starting point is 00:56:16 And that's what this bank teller did. She hesitated to give him the money until Gregory pointed a green handgun at her. Okay? I like the coordination, though. Drop one of the clues bombs for the matching. He said green? her. Okay, I like the coordination, though. Drop one of Clues' bombs for the matching. He said green? Green. Okay, you know country folks like to match things, all right?
Starting point is 00:56:29 He had to match that green handgun to the green money he was trying to steal out this bank. Now, as you already know, this bank robbery wasn't successful, all right? It didn't go well at all. In fact, Gregory stole approximately $5,645 from this bank, and that money included a dye pack, and almost immediately that dye pack exploded,
Starting point is 00:56:49 and Gregory dropped that money and hauled ass. But police caught him. Would you like to know how police caught him? Let's go to WALA Fox 10 TV for the report, please. Robert will be serving a 10-year prison sentence after busting himself for the crime. Investigators say Gregory Owens was robbing a bank on Demetropolis with a gun when he gave the teller a note demanding money. Well, the note
Starting point is 00:57:11 had his home address attached to it. Of course, needless to say, police showed up at his home address he had given the teller by accident, and Owens' mom gave police his phone number, and they tracked him down at a nearby hotel okay my goodness gregory owens attached his home address to the note that he passed to the bank teller that he was trying to rob see this is a clear example of a man not appreciating his blessings in life people see age is a blessing all right it's a privilege to get older okay greg, 55 years old, which means this is his first year being able to order off the special IHOP senior menu. When you get that
Starting point is 00:57:49 kind of a blessing and you don't appreciate it, you are essentially telling God and the universe to kiss your old ass. And when you tell God and the universe to kiss your old ass, it will be consequences and repercussions. This is like Gregory went to IHOP one time and ate off the senior menu. He just appreciated
Starting point is 00:58:06 that blessing once and then he went into the bank with the short stack and was eating the short stack in the bank as he was robbing the bank and he walked out still eating the short stack and the cops just followed the crumbs and pancakes to his place of residence. Now, I want to drop one of Clue's bombs for Gregory's mama,
Starting point is 00:58:22 okay? Because the address that was on the note he handed to the teller was Gregory's house, but really it was his mama's house, okay? 55 years old, still living with your mama. Every woman that ever gave Gregory some poom-poom is regretting it right now, okay? And I want to commend mama for giving the police Gregory's phone number because mama don't got time to be looking out for your 55 year old rusty ass boy okay mama been trying to get you out the house for years if you 55 mama probably in her 70s
Starting point is 00:58:52 she want to walk around the house naked with her tired titties resting comfortably on her knees and she can't do that because your big 55 year old behind wasn't motivated when tlc said they don't want no scrub okay Okay, when left-eyed T-Boz and Chili said, if you live at home with your mama, oh yes, son, I'm talking to you. You wasn't listening, Gregory, and your mama has had to parent a person past their prime
Starting point is 00:59:16 for way too long, so she had no problem pointing the po-po in your direction. Okay, I have absolutely nothing else to say about this situation because some donkey of the days just sell themselves. Please give Gregory Owens the sweet sounds of the Hamiltones. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.
Starting point is 00:59:43 Yee-haw. All right. All right. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Laura Bancroft. Now, when we come back, ask a C&E 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice

Starting point is 01:00:25 And I've been kind of uncomfortable with dating now because I don't really know how anymore. So I want to know, like, what should I do? What do you mean you don't know how to date? All you got to do is show up, boo. It's not that easy because it's like little things that turns me off about a guy. Like what? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:00:41 It'll be something that he says or does. Or it's just, I don't know. It'll be something petty, but I need to get past those things. Have you been having sex over the past couple years? Yeah. Okay, then. So if you can have sex, you can date. How you been letting these guys get the box?
Starting point is 01:00:55 You just been giving it to them? They been calling you? No, we been going on dates, but I'm just saying that's hard. They want to move to the next level, but I'm not ready. How do I? How old are you? I'm 27. Oh, 27.
Starting point is 01:01:08 Okay, so you're just playing the field. You're just having a little fun right now. Yeah, pretty much. You got three more years to be a hoe, so call us back in three years. I'm serious. You got three more years to go through your hoe phase. After 30, you kind of can't hoe like you want to. So should I just wait on making them want to go to the next level, or should I just
Starting point is 01:01:23 do me? Just enjoy yourself. Absolutely, and if all else fails, if all else fails, you know, want to go to the next level or should I just do me? Just enjoy yourself. Absolutely. And if all else fails, if all else fails, just remember Laura Bencross. Oh, stop it. Enjoy yourself, but I'm sure if that special somebody comes, you'll feel it. You'll know what that feels like. Okay. Alright. Good luck. Alright, thank you. You're welcome, Mama.
Starting point is 01:01:40 Tasha, good morning. Good morning. It's Ask C&E, Mama. Yes, I was asking and wondering about premarital sex. How do you guys feel about not getting that before marriage? Oh, I mean, I had sex with my wife before we got married, and Charlamagne definitely had sex with his wife. I think you need to test it out. I mean, I think you need to make sure that, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:59 that you guys are compatibly sexually, because you might get into a situation where you hate it. You know, he might not know what he's putting in his penis. his penis he might put it in your and you just don't like it and i'm gonna be honest with you pre-marital sex is something that the white man created to make the divorce rates in black communities go up because we end up marrying people who box was trash and we didn't realize it was trash and you marry a man whose penis was trash and you didn't know it was trash because you was waiting and. And now you're married and you got this whole big commitment, so now you got to divorce him because it's sex trash.
Starting point is 01:02:27 You know what I mean? I hear you. Yeah, man. Yeah, man. So have a blessed day. And good luck. Thank you. Hope we answered your question.

Starting point is 01:04:27 He wants to wait another year. And I'm confused because, you know, we don't have children. He's 35. I'm 32. And I'm not sure what the issue is. You can't pressure everybody, boo, because you got to understand that Laura Bancroft, you know, isn't for everybody. Everybody ain't Laura Bancroft.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Why doesn't he want a child right now? He doesn't say. He never really says. He just says, you know, I just want to wear another year. I want to enjoy being married. But it's like we've been together for eight years. Is it financial? Is it the money? No, not at all. You ever heard of oops? No. Oops.
Starting point is 01:04:59 He ain't never shot your club up by accident? Y'all still using condoms? No. Oh, if y'all not using condoms, I'm going to be honest with you, your box might be kind of trash. Oh, stop it. No, the reason I said. Ain't nothing wrong with the box, Charlamagne. No, I'm going to be honest, man.
Starting point is 01:05:11 If I'm hitting it raw every now and then, I'm going to shoot that club up just because. Just because I can't hold it. Are you on the pill? I don't want to pull out. I was on the pill. I recently got off of it because I thought we were going to be ready. He said he was ready, and then he said he's not now. So I'm just like,
Starting point is 01:05:26 okay, well, what's the issue? Repeat after me. Say oops. There you go. I didn't know. I thought I missed the pill there. I'm so sorry, baby. No, don't do that. That's trapping the man. Don't trap the man. Exactly. They've been together eight years. They're married. There's no trapping. They're together for life.
Starting point is 01:05:41 If y'all been together eight years and y'all having unprotected sex, it's only a matter of time, boo. Unless something wrong, furtherly. Okay together for life. If y'all been together eight years and y'all having unprotected sex, it's only a matter of time, boo. Unless something wrong, furtily. Okay, other than that, y'all going to be fine. Just keep on doing what you're doing. You know what, Charlamagne? Thank you for being positive. I was worried calling you.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Listen, man, I'm Laura Bancroft. Come on now. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is, well, I want to remain anonymous. Hey, anonymous, what's up? What's your question for C&E? Well, it's mainly for you because, you know, you have daughters and stuff like that charlamagne has daughters i got two daughters too girl i know but she's older all right okay what's your question oh um well my daughter she's
Starting point is 01:06:14 11 years old and you know she i feel like she's keeping like little secrets i just found out two weeks ago she had a little boyfriend and you know i'm obviously not for it education is number one and i want to keep her busy doing sports and doing anything to keep her busy because you know when i grew up things weren't the way they are now so my question is how do i go about this because you know i want her to be able to talk to me i'm not i don't want her to feel scared okay no i i love her so much Well, do you have real conversations with her? Do you talk about your life, what's going on with you, and talk to her about her? Because you've got to be open.
Starting point is 01:06:49 The best thing is communication. Yes. Like, my kids know everything that's going on. Yeah, I talk to her about everything that, you know, I've been through, but obviously G-rated, you know, just for her. But, you know, I don't want her to be a statistic. You know, I think about her future. We have a goal set for her.
Starting point is 01:07:04 College, education, boys are last. Okay, well, it shouldn't be G-rated. You should, I think about her future. We have a goal set for her. College, education, boys are last. Okay, well, it shouldn't be G-rated. You should be honest and open. Like, my conversations with my kids are rated R. Like, they know exactly what's going on. And because of that, they feel comfortable because I tell them the truth about everything. They feel comfortable telling me the truth about everything,
Starting point is 01:07:19 which is an open situation. Now, ain't nothing wrong with her having a friend that's her boy, you know, but as long as they're not kissing, dating, and going to the next level, I would invite that. Like, even with her father, like, you know, I got married, and her father, he's just crazy. He's Dominican.
Starting point is 01:07:35 So he's crazy, you know. I don't want to tell him anything, but me and my husband, we handled it for, like, two hours. We were talking with her, telling her, giving her examples, what boys are. Because boys are trash. Boys are not trash. They're not trash, all right?
Starting point is 01:07:51 See, that's the problem. Now stop now. Come on now. A lot of boys have Laura Bencross. They always care about themselves and impressing other boys and making themselves seem cool. And they don't really care about girls. I don't want my daughter to think anything. Is she dating a young Dominican man? A young Dominican boy comes over there with white jeans on and perfectly hot style bras?
Starting point is 01:08:07 Stop it. Charlamagne, I love you, by the way. Let me ask you a question, Mama. When did you first start dating boys? And that's the thing. Like, when I was 13, I had like a little boyfriend, but it wasn't nothing like that. Okay, well, maybe your daughter is doing the same. Maybe your daughter is doing the same.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Just keep an eye on her, but if you tell her she can't have a boyfriend, she's going to want one even more. Just allow it to happen and just keep on and ask them, how's he doing? What you guys are up to? If they want to go to the movies, they go to movies as a group, but you can't stop it because she'll do it behind your back and then it'll make it way worse.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Yeah, you're right. Thank you so much, DJ Andy. Just talk to her more. You got to be open about everything. And did you have the birds and the bees conversation yet? Not yet. You better. She understands it. I should right now.
Starting point is 01:08:52 But it's like I even I'm thinking to myself, even when she turns 14, I want to put her in like the pill because I want to prevent anything from happening. And it's good for the period. Right. Absolutely. She should definitely take the HPV. Make sure she gets the HPV shot immediately. And also, you gotta have conversations,
Starting point is 01:09:07 especially like when the herpes thing came out, right? When artists having herpes. You gotta tell her about it because it's things that's going on now so it makes it easy.
Starting point is 01:09:15 It just doesn't come out the blue, you know? Just tell her every guy she has sex with gonna give her herpes. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. That's a good care.
Starting point is 01:09:22 That's a good care. Tell her every guy you have sex with gonna give you herpes until you get married. Good luck, mama. I'm sorry. When you get married, you'll be herpes free. All right? Thank you. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Thank you so much. What's your thing with Dominicans in white pants, man? Dominicans wear white jeans, and I'm going to tell you something. What? Is pro-style Dominican? He's part Dominican, right? Yes. Sleuthar got DJ pro-style.
Starting point is 01:09:42 I will never forget when I saw DJ pro-style with a New York Giants jersey on and white jeans. And I said, wow, it's not a stereotype if it's true. Was it in the winter? Yes. It was after Labor Day. All right. Ask C&E 805-85-1051. When we come back, I'll tell you about this sneaky, sneaky personality.
Starting point is 01:10:01 I mean, you've seen Tristan Thompson getting caught outside a hotel. Man, shut up. Well, this guy got caught outside of a building with another man smiling, all happy and giggly and just happy to be there. And he even poked his butt out. I'll tell you all about it when we come back. This is ridiculous. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:10:19 It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. That's right. The sneaky, sneaky radio personalities. Like in the last couple of years, radio personalities have been caught doing a lot of things.
Starting point is 01:10:38 Creeping, getting caught on the streets with all types of people. Well, this one, Charlamagne Tha God, was caught leaving a building with another man. Very creepy. TMZ ran up on him. And Charlamagne, tell us what happened, man. That wasn't a building. It was Kanye West's office. Oh.
Starting point is 01:10:55 His factory, his plant, where he does his sneakers and his apparel and, you know, his music and all of that kind of stuff like that. That's what that was, okay? So why were you in Kanye's meeting? Was it the Illuminati? Yes, it was an Illuminati meeting. I'm in L.A. on other business, other Illuminati business.
Starting point is 01:11:12 But, you know, I mean, Kanye's been to the Breakfast Club a couple times. He came here in 2013, 2015. We've always had a good rapport with each other. And, you know, I told y'all yesterday, I missed his energy. And so, you know, he hit me up, we connected for a little bit. But you know, like TMZ said, we was listening to music. We did listen to some music, but we was more so building about life. You know what I mean? We grown with kids
Starting point is 01:11:31 and wives and we was talking about therapy and mental illness, just grown man stuff. Okay? We don't do that enough in our communities as men. We don't build enough. Okay? But, you know, that was about it. And I will say, I will tell you, he did hire me yesterday I do have a job
Starting point is 01:11:46 What's your job? Official job I am Kanye West's Ghost tweeter So wait a minute So you can work for Atlantic and Kanye West Definitely
Starting point is 01:11:54 Yes Well actually I work for Cardi You know what I'm saying Not necessarily Atlantic You know what I mean I work for Cardi And now I work for
Starting point is 01:12:01 Good Music I'm his official Ghost tweeter I'm Kanye West's official ghost tweeter. So if you see some of our tweets and they're similar, that's why. My goodness. Yes. All right, well, shout out to Tiffany Haddish.
Starting point is 01:12:12 Her and Kevin Hart will be headlining the Labs Comedy Festival, all right? Now, it's 36th edition. It's going to be a lot of comics, all right? And it goes down Saturday, July 28th at 6 p.m. and 8.30 p.m. at the Sally Wilford Theater. Alright, so look forward to that. Drop one of the clues bombs for my sis Tiffany Haddish. I definitely work for
Starting point is 01:12:31 Tiffany Haddish, by the way. That's another person that I work for. She Ready Productions. Salute to Tiffany Haddish. Now, the comedy festival is through July 11th through the 29th, so I look forward to that. And also, Kodak Black, you know, he got a year in prison, and he wrote an open letter. He said, first and foremost, I want to thank the Lord for his blessing in disguise, which was sending me back to jail January 18th.
Starting point is 01:12:52 So hopefully he sees everything he's been going through. He fixes himself up and comes back a better man. That's what I'm hoping. That's right. Don't give God your ass to kiss, Kodak Black. Because when you get these kind of second and third chances that you're getting right now, that means that you are here for a real reason. So don't give God your ass to kiss, okay? Appreciate
Starting point is 01:13:10 the blessing that you are getting, because this is truly a blessing. You're on probation, facing charges, and you got caught with more guns and more drugs, and by the grace of God, can we bring God into this? Yes. We'll bring God into this. By the grace of God, you know, the charges got dropped, and you only had to do a year, and time served? Boy, you know, the charges got dropped and you only had to do a year and time served.
Starting point is 01:13:25 Boy, you better come home and straighten up and fly right. Yeah, I'm sure he'll be good. I'm sure he'll smarten up because he's been doing the most right now. Only reason I don't want to give God the credit for this is because Kodak Black is Haitian. Okay? Could have been some roots and voodoo involved. You know what I mean? Could have been some roots and voodoo involved.
Starting point is 01:13:41 A little dust could have hit the judge. Like, right? My goodness. Those charges could have got dismissed. All right. And lastly, J. Cole's album will be out tonight. So look forward to that. It's K.O.D.
Starting point is 01:13:52 Comes out on 420. It has no features but two. Somebody named Kill Edward. His fans believe Kill Edward is his alter ego. So we look forward to hearing some new music tomorrow. Yeah, absolutely. I can't wait to hear Cole's album. I told you me and Ye had an interesting conversation
Starting point is 01:14:06 yesterday because I was asking him about the Cole False Prophets verse. Remember when Cole dropped that song False Prophets and they said one verse was about Ye, one was about Wale? Yep. And I asked him,
Starting point is 01:14:16 I said, yo, you think Cole was dissing you? And he was just like, man, I think Cole dissing me all the time in his music. He didn't say it in a malicious way. He was actually laughing about it
Starting point is 01:14:23 and then he quoted the Cole verse and he was like, I don't want no chick from reality shows, whatever. He didn't say it in a malicious way. He was actually laughing about it and then he quoted the cold verse and he was like, I don't want no chick from reality shows, whatever. He was just saying, he was like, who else got a chick
Starting point is 01:14:30 from a reality show? You know? But yeah, I just thought that was an interesting conversation the way rappers perceive things.
