Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

Hey y'all, Niminy here.
I'm the host of a brand new
history podcast for kids and families
called Historical Records.
Executive produced by
Questlove, The Story Pirates, and
John Glickman, Historical Records
brings history to life through hip-hop.
Flash, slam, another one gone.
Bash, bam, another one gone.
The crack of the bat and another one gone.
The tip of the cap, there's another one gone.
Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama
who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.
Check it.
And it began with me.
Did you know, did you know?
I wouldn't give up my seat.
Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin.
Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.
Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise.
Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I get more nervous in this room than anywhere else. It's on your radio right now. Do you know how to pop that coochie for a girl?
There you go.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show.
Got the cameras, I'm out of here.
What kind of show is this?
Let's not listen to this show.
The Breakfast Club.
With DJ Envy.
The captain of this bitch.
With Angela Yee.
The only one who can keep these guys in check.
With Charlamagne Tha God.
I'm a lovable asshole.
And this is The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Good morning, DJ Envy.
Good morning, Angelie.
Good morning, Charlamagne Tha God.
Peace to the planet.
It's Thursday.
I don't know where everybody is, bro.
I think Angelie's in Miami, right?
She went to Miami.
She'll be with us tomorrow, broadcast live from Miami, but she's not with us today.
I don't know where DJ Envy is.
You got to understand, man, it's the holiday time.
And when it's the holiday time,
one of the toughest things to do is get up and go to work.
Everybody out there feeling it.
I don't care what your occupation is.
We just getting off Thanksgiving break,
and you're thinking about the time off you got for Christmas,
the time off you're going to have for New Year's,
and it's very difficult to get up and get your ass to your place of employment during the holidays.
It just is what it is, man.
And, you know, it happened to me yesterday.
I went to sleep at 1 o'clock in the morning because it was my wife's born day.
And I didn't wake up till 5 o'clock, which got me here around 6.15.
This morning I woke up at 4.25 because my ass was in bed by 8 o'clock last night.
Because I'm old.
And being that I'm old, if I get three hours of sleep the next day,
I mean three hours of sleep the day before, whatever the next day is, I'm done done.
Okay, and that's how I was yesterday.
But I am bright and bushy-tailed this morning,
so I could do this whole show by myself right now if I needed to.
Where is Envy, by the way?
Oh, he's parking.
Okay.
Envy has to park on the street.
He can't park in the lot because his cars are like real expensive and they don't insure none of his
cars. So he has to park on the street.
Which isn't safe either, by the way.
Because if you got an expensive car and you park on the street, somebody
just walk by and see your freaking
you know, Rolls Royce,
whatever spirit it is, whether it's a ghost
or a rave, the boogeyman,
whatever it is, you walk by
and you see it, you might just want to, you know, break into it, especially during the
holiday season because the wolves is out.
Oh, hey, I was just talking really nice about you.
I'm sure you wasn't.
How are you, sir?
What's up, sir?
What's happening?
How was your night last night?
What did you drive this morning?
What did I drive?
Yeah.
A Dodge.
Why?
Oh, you drove a Dodge.
So you parked in the lot today.
Yeah, why?
Oh, okay.
Why?
No, somebody was just talking about how, you know, you got expensive cars and you can't
park them in the lot because they can't be insured.
And then if you park on the street, somebody might break into them.
Right.
So I park in the lot, I have to walk in.
Okay.
So during the holiday season, you do like, you tone it down a bit with the whips.
Because you know the wolves is up.
Are you setting me up right now?
What's going on here?
What did I just walk into?
No, I'm just asking.
That's all.
Hey, so you know what?
Can I shout somebody out?
Shout out to all the kids in Crown Hodge,
Brooklyn. A lot of them came out yesterday
to the Brooklyn Museum, the Children's Brooklyn Museum.
I got a chance to talk to the kids
about violence and
not taking the easy way
out. Not taking the gang way out. Not robbing
people with nice cars. Yes, that too.
Got you. Got you. Okay. Not being a wolf
during the holiday season.
Yeah, and they're trying to open up this Brooklyn Armory.
They're trying to turn the Brooklyn Armory into like a recreation center so the kids
have something to do after school.
So I was there with our community leaders.
Also, the police were there.
Just talking to the kids about doing positive things and it was great.
Were they actually listening or were they just lining you up?
Like, boy, I can't wait to he and his next club gig in Brooklyn.
I ain't going to lie.
I ain't wearing no jewelry, but I didn't wear no jewelry.
I didn't drive no nice car.
I just wanted to talk to the kids and just really put some positive images
and positive things out there for them so they can know that there's some easier ways
than just doing that.
And I talked to them about just furthering their education through high school.
A lot of the community leaders dropped out of high school,
and they're community leaders, and they were mad and upset that they did it.
They had to go back and get their bachelor's and get their doctorates and all that.
So it was a good thing talking to the kids.
Honestly, that's how I feel about college, too.
Whenever I go talk to kids, it's like it's not uncomfortable.
It was just like, damn, I didn't go to college.
And you can't tell, you know, kids
not to go to college.
Right.
Because truth to the matter
is none of them
probably as special as me.
Drop on the clues bombs for me.
Oh my goodness.
Yeah, you are special.
You are very special.
I'm just saying,
you're not me.
You can't be as special as me.
I'm special.
You are.
All right.
God bless his baby and fools.
And you were the fool.
Absolutely.
And at one point,
I was a baby.
At one point,
you were a baby.
Yes.
He blessed my whole life.
All right.
Well,
Kevin Lyles will be joining us this morning. The OG Kevin Lyles.
The OG Kevin Lyles.
Kevin Lyles gave me some great advice one time, years ago.
I mean, he gives me great advice all the time, but...
He's from Baltimore.
He actually started as an intern at Def Jam and worked his way up to, I believe he was
vice president one time at Def Jam.
He was the president of Def Jam.
Was he president of Def Jam?
Give that man his respect.
Drop all the cool moms at Def Jam.
President of Def Jam.
And then he moved over,
started his own company,
his own management firm
where he manages
Ty Dolla $ign,
he manages Jeezy,
manages Train Songs.
He's rich.
And then he's one of the
owners of 300,
which is the label
that has Young Thug,
they have the Migos,
they have Fetty Wap.
So he's doing good out there.
So when he wants
to come up here,
we allow him.
Of course.
So we'll kick it
with Kevin Lyle's. And we got front page, oh, Angel to come up here, we allow him. Of course. All right, so we'll kick it with Kevin Lyles.
All right, we got front page.
Oh, Angelique's not here, so I got to do front page news?
Oh, my goodness.
All right, well, them bum-ass Cowboys play tonight.
We'll tell you all about that, too.
All right?
Keep it locked.
That's why you're going to get robbed.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Yes.
Okay, I just want to tell y'all, this is BS, that Angelique's not here,
and I got to do the front page news.
I know I'm upset that I missed Tommy Lauren on Trevor Noah last night.
Yeah, they were frying her ass.
Those are two of my favorite personalities, by the way.
Okay.
I enjoy both of them a lot.
I enjoy Trevor Noah, and I enjoy Tommy Lauren.
I cannot wait to watch this.
All right, well, let's get into some front page news.
Now, on Thursday night football, the Cowboys play the Vikings. Well, let's get into some front page news. Now, on Thursday night, football!
The Cowboys play the Vikings.
Now, we'll see what happens.
I'm sure the Vikings
will win.
Listen, I need us
to lose a game
before the playoffs start.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't...
I want to lose one game
before the playoffs start.
I just don't want to lose
any divisional games.
So if we lose to the Vikings
or the Buccaneers,
I'm fine with that.
And the Lions.
Then we got the Lions
on the schedule
before the year over. If we lose in 803, I'm cool with that. And the Lions. I think we got the Lions on the schedule before the year over.
If we lose in 803, I'm cool with that.
And my Giants, we have, of course, your bum-ass Cowboys
on the schedule. We have the Lions.
Who else do we have? You do realize that calling my Cowboys
bum-ass at this point is just a personal
opinion because we're 10-1. Drop one of those bombs
for the Dallas Cowboys. It's a personal thing.
There's nothing accurate about what you're saying.
You actually have a great team. Probably the best team in NFL.
And when we get us a pass rusher, oh, my God.
A pass what?
Pass rusher.
Okay.
Lord have mercy.
Now, let's talk about this Colorado doctor.
Would you be offended if I called you monkey face?
Not really.
Okay.
Well, Dr. Michelle Herron wrote on Facebook under a picture of the first lady,
monkey face in poor Ebonic English.
There.
I feel better, and I'm still not racist.
I'm just calling it like it is.
Now, she actually serves as a Denver health doctor to a large minority population.
She says that was taken out of context and she did not realize monkey face was a racist reference.
You know, the crazy thing is, though, this is the truth to the matter.
Some people actually think Michelle Obama looks like some type of monkey
or some type of ape. I think she's
very beautiful, but I've heard people
say that before, so I honestly do believe
sometimes when they make
those references, they're trying to say that she
looks like an ape or some type of monkey, like she really does have
a monkey face. I don't think they realize
that that's a racial slur for real.
You don't think they're playing both sides? Like, maybe she does,
but I'm going to say this anyway because I think I can get it off.
If they do, then you just put,
all you got to do is put up a post that could go either way.
You'd be like, shut up, you saltine cracker.
Okay?
That's it.
Okay?
So it's like, dang, you just called me a cracker.
I called you a saltine cracker.
All right?
Yeah, that's what I did.
Okay.
Now let's talk about the pilot.
We talked about that Brazilian soccer club.
A lot of them lost their lives in the plane crash.
Now, the leaked recording says that they might have ran out of fuel.
Now, the pilot, he reportedly asked permission to land because of total electric failure and lack of fuel.
Now, isn't there a gauge that tells you when your fuel is low?
First of all, first of all, first of all, if you're a pilot of a plane,
you shouldn't even take off unless the plane is full.
Don't just get in the air and be like, I got a quad of a tank, we can get there.
No, that's not how none of this works.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm with you.
They're going to be investigating.
But yeah, I'm with you.
They should know how much fuel they have remaining.
If that's the case, if that is the case, that's a hell of a lawsuit, bro.
A hell of a lawsuit.
Or maybe it leaked out, maybe. Maybe they leaked out somehow, some way when they were in the air. I don't know.
That's a little different, but still, certain things like
that, the planes just don't start leaking like
that. Like, it had to be leaking before. Somebody
had to notice the leak. Because you got to take a
chance. Like, this morning, I had an opportunity. I was like,
either I'm going to get gas or I'm going to possibly
be late. I did the same thing.
I did the exact same thing. I had a quarter of a tank.
And I was like, you know what?
I had to think about what I had to do after work.
I did too.
And I was like, I don't really have much to do.
I can make it.
I can make it.
Yeah, I can get back home.
But we made it.
I get to the gas station.
Yeah, it is a car too.
Yeah, it's not the same as a plane.
You don't get in a plane if the plane got a quarter of a tank, bro.
Like, that's not something you do.
You're right.
You don't get up in the sky and be like, yeah, we can make it.
Yeah.
We in New York, but we can make it to Florida on a quarter of a tank. All right. Well, that's not something you do. You're right. You don't get up in the sky and be like, yeah, we can make it. We're in New York, but we can make it
to Florida on a quarter of a tank. Alright.
Well, that's front page news. Tell them
why you're mad. 800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, call us
right now. Maybe you're pissed off. Maybe
you had a bad morning. Whatever it may be.
Phone lines are wide open.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, yo, this is DMX.
You know what makes me mad?
We ask for the truth, but can't handle the truth, right?
Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Yes, hi, my name's Sabina.
How are you?
Good morning.
Tell them why you mad, mama.
So I've been dating this guy.
I'm sorry, my GPS is going off.
I've been dating this guy for two months.
And he, at dinner last night, he tells me that he has to be honest with me.
And he tells me that he has a girlfriend that he's been serious with for the past five years. And I said, okay.
And I'm all heartbroken and everything.
He said, well, it's okay because we can work something out.
She's totally cool with me having a side chick.
She's even into threesomes and all this kind of crazy stuff.
Well, he was honest. I don't share
two things in this world, and that's my
and my shoes. I just don't do that.
But ladies gotta stop being like that, and the reason
ladies gotta stop being like that is because pickings
are really slim, you know,
for women nowadays. You got a lot of guys
in jail. You got a lot of guys that aren't
successful. A lot of guys are gay.
So, you know,
there's nothing wrong
with sharing two sticks, baby.
Okay, but would you want
to share your woman?
That's not...
See, why do we do that?
Why does it have nothing
to do with men?
We're talking about women.
Look, at the end of the day,
loyalty is loyalty.
That's the way I look at it.
I get what you're saying,
but at least he was honest.
And now that he's honest,
you got to decide on yourself
if you want to share
if he's that good of a guy
or if you say, you know what, I'll try to find somebody else.
But at least he was honest.
No, I'm going to find somebody else.
He didn't play any games.
It's kind of selfish for good men to be with one woman, baby.
And I'm going to be honest, the only thing he's doing wrong is calling you a side chick.
You are his other girlfriend.
I prefer the term mistress.
That's sexy.
Well, let me tell you something.
I am nobody's mistress because I just could never do that to another woman.
Like, I'm a lot of things in this world.
I'm going to tell you that right now.
But I could never do that to another woman.
Women have to look out for women in this life.
Men are dogs.
Okay.
Wait till Valentine's Day rolls around and you all lonely and you sitting around thinking,
if you think you're lonely.
Listen, my boyfriend passed away three years ago.
I've been lonely every Valentine's Day
for three years now, so I'm used to it.
I'm sorry, how'd he pass away?
Motorcycle accident.
Well, you stand strong
and you find yourself a good man out there.
And by the way...
Wait, is this DJ Envy?
Yes.
DJ Envy, I just want to tell you,
you are so handsome and your wife is beautiful.
Your kids are like a gift to the world.
God bless you.
Keep being a wonderful husband and a great father.
Oh, God.
Thank you.
God has a plan for you.
Listen, by the way, listen, any man that dates you is technically dating a woman who has a man
because you didn't break up with your man.
Your man died.
So your man ghost could still be around.
Stop it.
Oh, my God. Please stop it. My man man, Ghost, could still be around. Stop it. Oh, my God.
Please stop it.
My man now is Jesus
and Jesus is looking after me
and Jesus even told me,
he told me, like,
this isn't going to work.
So you know what?
And you just proved it to me.
Well, seconded it to me.
So it's a wrap for this guy.
There's more fish in the sea.
There you go.
You keep looking at me.
How old are you, mama?
I'm 27.
I'm going to be 28 next month.
I'm a vieja.
Be patient.
Don't look for love.
Just enjoy your life and it'll fall on your lap.
Man, stop lying to this girl.
Why are you telling her all this generic stuff?
Oh, my God, Charlamagne.
Why are you a hater?
I love you, Charlamagne.
I always defend you.
Don't do that to me.
I'm just going to tell you the truth, baby.
It's going to be lonely on Valentine's Day for you.
But that's all right.
You'll find your king, and then you'll be happy for the rest of your life.
You'll be 39.
Exactly.
Amen.
Praise the Lord.
All right, mama.
God's got a plan for you.
God's got a plan.
God always got a plan.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, you can call us, too.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
That was Love, Tory Lanez.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Look, I know we at work, but I need 25 minutes to watch Tommy Lauren on Trevor Noah last night.
I didn't get to see it.
I thoroughly enjoy both of those people.
I enjoy Trevor Noah as a personality, and I enjoy Tommy Lauren as a personality.
Explain to the people who Tommy Lauren is, because she's a troll.
What station does she work for?
Tommy Lauren works for The Blaze.
It's a network, and it's a website. And she's a troll. What station does she work for? Tommy Lauren works for the Blaze. It's a network and it's a website.
And she's a conservative firebrand.
Doesn't seem like she likes black people too much.
I don't know.
She's a Trump supporter.
She's a Republican.
She doesn't like the Black Lives Matter movement.
She doesn't like the Black Lives Matter movement.
She agrees with their right to protest,
but she thinks that some of them have a cop killing rhetoric
Tommy's an interesting person
I like polarizing people for whatever reason
She was also the one that got on Jay-Z
And Beyonce and said you married a drug dealer
Which was true
I mean a former drug dealer
Former drug dealer
But I mean like I said I enjoy Tommy
And I enjoy Trevor for different reasons
They both entertain me
It's funny I talked to both of them yesterday I didn Trevor for different reasons. They both entertain me.
It's funny.
I talked to both of them yesterday.
I didn't even realize she was going to be on the show.
That's why I didn't see it last night, but I'm going to watch it this morning.
Okay.
Tommy's in New York.
I got to see Tommy before she leaves New York.
Salute to Tommy, Lauren.
Also, shout to all my pops.
Today's my pop's birthday, man.
So shout out to my pops.
Spoke to him last night.
You're like 10 years younger than him, right?
No.
How old is he?
He's in his 70s. I'm nowhere near there, but happy birthday
to my pops. I'm going to get him
a TV for his birthday.
Man, he just buying your dad a TV?
Big TV.
You buying your dad his first TV?
No, it's not his first TV. Kanye bought Sway his first
TV and you just buying your daddy his first TV
now after all these years? You should be ashamed of yourself.
It's a bigger TV. You know how every five, six years they, the new TV comes out, the 4K, the 3D, the curve.
I'm going to get him a new TV so he's good.
He can watch his Giants every Sunday.
So I ordered it from PC Richard.
It should be there today.
Make sure you get it to him before he plays My Dallas Cowboys again, okay?
Oh, we going to that game.
I'm taking my pops to that game.
We going to be there.
I'm going to be there.
All right.
Well, when we come back, we got some rumors.
We'll tell you about Kanye. He was released.
We'll tell you about all of that. Also,
21 Savage still wants
to tear that ass up. I'll tell you about it when we
come back. Whose ass? You need to be clear about you.
You made it sound like it was your ass.
Not my ass. That's what you said. 21 Savage still
want to tear that ass up. No, not my ass. Be clear
about whose ass it is. We'll talk about whose ass it is
when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor report.
Rumor report.
This is The Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
21 Savage said, I will tear that ass up.
He is going hard for Kylie.
Now, I don't know where this is coming from.
I don't know why or when he said it.
What do you mean why?
You seen Kylie Instagram?
You ain't never seen Kylie Instagram?
No.
I told y'all Kylie was a top prospect
when she was 17.
I actually don't think she's that hot now
that she's of age, I guess, 18.
So you thought she was better when she was younger?
I did, honestly.
That's a little perverted.
I'm just telling you the truth.
All right, well, 21 Savage actually even wanted to sing to Kylie.
We have audio of it?
Let's hear it.
We just live like Kylie.
And I was going to tear your ass up.
Drop one of Clues Bomb for 21 Savage, damn it.
He really wants Kylie.
He really wants a shot.
He really wants a chance.
Now, let me ask you a question.
If you Tiger, how do you feel?
You mind your business.
Why?
Why?
Because 21 Savage, everywhere he go, he keep a chopper with him.
Whoa, whoa.
Do you go quote every line he does?
He ain't with that diss song.
He be done shot it.
He go, whoa, whoa.
Okay? Okay. All right. Mind your business, Tiger. He be done shot it. He go, whoa, whoa. Okay?
Okay.
All right.
Mind your business, Tiger.
Okay.
Mind your business.
That's his girl, though.
That's his lady.
Mind your business.
You ain't in Atlanta.
Y'all all the way in California.
Mind your business.
Okay?
All right.
Mind your business.
Now, Yeezy has been released.
He has finally been released from his psych hold at UCLA Medical Center after checking
himself in during Thanksgiving week.
Even though Yeezy is back home with Kim and the kids,
he's not fully cleared to return to business as usual.
Now, they're saying that possibly Yeezy and Kim Kardashian have had problems,
and they weren't seeing eye to eye.
They're saying that they had to fake crazy to get his girl back.
Hey, it happens, man.
Some guys fake suicide to get their girl back.
Some guys fake crazy.
Yeah, but that's going a little far.
Don't you think?
It's Hollywood.
All right, well, they're saying that they haven't been seeing eye to eye at night.
All he does is talk and rant and that she hasn't really been with it.
But now, I mean, if you're saying that's true, it's kind of weird because she flew back to his side.
By the way, if Kanye is like that at home, I can totally see Kim needing a break.
If Kanye's ranting, imagine Kanye the way he is on stage ranting and raving at home.
Imagine having to hear those verbal screams of consciousness all day and all night long.
Would you not need a break?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes.
I think we all would.
And by the way, when it comes, you know what?
I don't know.
What?
When it comes to what?
I don't know.
I forgot what I was going to say.
I did, honestly.
You're getting old.
I am. I really forgot what I was going to say. don't know. I forgot what I was going to say. I did, honestly. You're getting old. I am.
I really forgot what I was going to say.
Oh, no.
This is what I was going to say.
Like I said yesterday, what y'all going to do when Kanye has another rant?
Because he's going to have more rants in the future.
So do we ignore the rant because now he's mentally ill?
Because all of you people are coming to his defense saying that he's mentally ill and
we should take mental illness serious.
So when he goes on another rant, do we just ignore it? What do we do?
Maybe he won't go on another rant. Maybe he'll
take his meds and he'll be alright. Kanye's
going on another rant. Just like
21 Savage is going to rap about shooting somebody
in the future. Kanye's going to go on another rant.
Alright. Well, let's end it
on with my light-skinned
brethren. Drake is Spotify's most
streamed artist for 2016. Give him a round of
applause. Spotify released the annual top list 2016 rap,
and Drake took the prize for a second year with over 4.7 billion streams.
That's double last year.
He's probably been playing on the radio double that.
Okay?
Yeah, maybe.
How many times have you been playing on the radio?
I'm sure a lot.
He probably got a record for that, too.
I'm sure.
And Drake's One Dance was the most streamed song on Spotify of all time.
We're doing the hottest MCs of 2016 for MTV2.
Let me see when this is.
I seen that.
Yeah, it's December 16th at 11 p.m.
And everybody's been posting, wondering where Drake's going to fall on that list.
So tune in on December 16th at 11 p.m.
On MTV2.
On 2016?
Hottest MCs of 2016.
Where would you rank him?
Drake?
Yes.
Last year?
This year.
Boy, we still in the air.
Oh, this year, I should say.
Number one.
Okay.
Hands down.
I'm not going to say hands down.
Hands down.
I think it's debatable.
Between who and who?
I mean, Chance the Rapper had a great year.
Chance the Rapper did have a good year. Kanye had a great year. Chance the Rapper did have a good year.
Kanye had a great year.
He did.
But Drake had a stellar year.
Future had a great year.
But not besides.
Young Thug had a good year.
Besides, you know, his diss records with Meek and his touring.
That was 2015.
Was it 2015?
Yes.
Back to Back was 2015.
By the way, 2015 was, to me, it seemed like Drake owned the year more than he did this year.
I think he broke a lot of records this year, but views wasn't critically acclaimed at all.
Not even a little bit.
I didn't like views, personally.
I like views.
My opinion doesn't matter.
Radio played the ish out of it, though.
What does that matter?
We play a lot of stuff that ain't necessarily reflecting what's hot in the culture a lot.
His tours were sold out.
Drake's tour.
So was Kanye's.
Chance was selling out as well.
Drake didn't go crazy.
We don't know what...
We don't know what Drake's going through.
You need to stop making fun of me until a little bit.
I'm not!
All right?
You know what?
Forget you.
That's front page.
What were they doing?
You need to stop making fun of me.
I can't believe you.
Where the hell is he?
All right, when we come back, we got front page news.
We'll tell you about this doctor that called Michelle Obama monkey face.
You don't see nothing wrong with that?
I got to hear the whole story.
All right, we'll do it when we come back.
I got to hear both sides.
I mean, monkey face is foul.
I got to hear both sides.
I got to hear both sides.
I got to hear the context.
You can't just tell me.
I need to know what the context was.
Okay, we'll talk about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get into some front page news now.
And Thursday night football.
The Vikings, I'm sure, will wash them Cowboys tonight.
Listen, I don't care if they wash my Cowboys or not
because I need us to drop a game before the playoffs start.
I just don't want to lose no divisional games.
I don't want to lose to the Eagles.
I don't want to lose to the Giants.
If we drop one to the Lions, the Bucs, or the Vikings tonight, I'm cool with that.
Y'all guys are going to lose two games.
You're going to lose tonight, and you're going to lose against the Giants.
We're definitely not losing against the Giants.
You don't even got to worry about that.
It's going to be a lot of hurt feelings in MetLife Stadium when we play them again.
Now, Charlamagne, you're a monkey face.
How'd that make you feel?
I mean, that's your opinion.
All right.
I think you're a waffle-colored Negro.
Well, that's your opinion.
I think you look on a lot of levels
like a pair of khaki-colored pants.
Personally.
I don't know about that. Well, let's talk about Dr.
Michelle Herron. She wrote on Facebook
under a picture of the first lady.
She said, monkey face and poor
Ebonic English. There. I feel better
and I'm still not racist. I'm just calling
it like it is. Now, she
actually serves as a Denver health doctor to a large minority population.
Now, people are taking, people are pissed off about it.
And she said, well, it was taken out of context.
She said that she didn't realize that monkey face reference was racist.
That's a lie.
I'm going to tell you why.
Okay, I thought about this over the past hour.
I didn't hear that last part where she said, where she said, I'm not racist.
I'm not racist.
Okay, as soon as you make the comment monkey face, but then say I'm not racist,
then in your mind, you know that what you're
saying is possibly racist. I thought she just simply
said Michelle Obama got a monkey face.
If she'd have left it at that, I'd have been like,
okay, maybe. Only because
a lot of people do think Michelle Obama looks like
some type of ape. I don't. I think she's a beautiful
woman, but the fact that she said
I'm not racist lets me know she
knew monkey face could have been taken in a racist way. Right, she said it and she was like, I'm not racist lets me know she knew monkey face could have been
taken in a racist way. Right. She said it
and she was like, I'm not racist, meaning it
could be taken either way. Yes, and that's why you just got to
reply, shut up, you saltine cracker.
And then when she goes, you called me a cracker, you say,
no, I called you a saltine cracker or a rich
cracker. You know what I'm saying? Just make sure
you make it seem like it's the kind of cracker you eat.
But I also think because she's a Denver health
doctor for a minority population, she felt that she can say
and be like, well, I work with black people.
That's what I think.
If you work with black people, you don't call black people racial.
I agree.
We work with a lot of white people up here.
Ain't nobody called me a racial slur yet.
I called them some.
Steve, have I ever called you a racial slur, Steve?
Yeah.
You said yeah a few times. Steve, put Steve on the mic. Steve, tell the truth. What have I ever called you a racial slur, Steve? Yeah. You said yeah a few times.
Steve, put Steve on the mic.
Okay, this is fun.
Steve, tell the truth.
What have I ever called you?
Cracker.
Okay.
All right.
Honky.
All right, all right.
Enough's enough.
Enough's enough.
One more?
Steven the White Demon.
White Devil.
Explain the context, though.
What is the context of those things when I say them to you?
That I'm the devil.
Okay.
And I'm white. Alright.
Okay.
My goodness.
Now, there are no charges
in the shooting death of Keith
Lamont Scott. Jesus Christ.
Officer Brentley Vincent of the Charlotte
Police Department will not be facing
any charges. He claims
that Scott was rolling up a joint while holding a gun
in a parking lot, and the DA claimed that the officer acted lawfully
and is free from blame.
Did the guy, did Keith have a gun?
I still don't, I didn't,
I don't think he had a gun, right?
He never had a gun.
No, the officer said he had a gun,
but I don't think they found a gun.
They never still showed a gun.
No.
I mean, listen, man,
I'm numb to those kind of announcements now,
and I shouldn't be.
You shouldn't be. That's what't be. You shouldn't be.
That's what's bad.
I shouldn't be numb to that.
But when situations like that happen, and then a few months later we hear the cop's not charged,
it's just like I'm numb to it.
It feels like it happens all the time.
It's like, okay.
What else is numb?
When they do get charged, I'm like, oh, wow.
Didn't see that coming.
Right.
You know?
That's very sad.
Very, very sad.
And that's front page news.
Now, when we come back,
Kevin Liles will be joining us.
Kevin Liles,
former president of Def Jam,
manages Jeezy,
Trey Songz,
Ty Dolla $ign,
just to name a few.
I don't think he manages
Jeezy no more.
No?
I know he manages Trey,
definitely.
Mm-hmm.
Now, he's part owner of 300.
That's the label
that Young Thug is signed to
The Migos are signed to
Fetty Wap is signed to
So we're gonna talk to him
Day Day
Yeah we're gonna kick it with him
And talk to him
He got a new project
And something new that he's doing
So we're gonna talk to him about that
I'm actually involved
So we'll talk to him when we come back
Keep it live Kevin Lyles
It's The Breakfast Club
Good morning
Here's Ray Sherman
Gucci Mane.
We're standing still.
Can't talk to the beat drops.
You broke the mannequin challenge already.
The white guy bothered me. When you started talking, this mannequin challenge was another one.
The white guy bothered me, though.
The white devil.
Stop letting the white devil distract you.
Sorry, it's Black Beatles.
Breakfast, cloak, and morning.
That was Kanye through the wire. distracts you. Sorry, it's Black Beatles. Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Kanye
through the wire.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy,
Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest
in the building.
Yep.
Mr. Kevin Liles.
Hey, brother.
How are you, man?
Good morning, sir.
Kevin Liles just did 10 deals
while he was sitting here
right now.
Kevin spies me
because he's a well-off individual.
We all know that.
A lot of money. Don't put his money out there like that, but he does. But he still a well-off individual. We all know that. A lot of money.
Don't put his money out there like that, but he does.
But he still hustles like an intern.
Absolutely.
As an executive, like, I see Kevin everywhere.
I could be in New Orleans having brunch, and there's Kevin.
I could be at the Ween Awards.
Hampton, Virginia.
Yeah, exactly.
Y'all remember that?
Why, Kev?
I got to be in the street.
I don't know.
I came up there.
I think there's kids not getting mentored and not getting talked to,
not getting told to do the right thing.
And I don't know how not to do it because that was told by me and by Russell and Leroy.
You know what I mean?
So I got to be there.
And I think I'm from the street and I'm about the people.
So what I do care about is making sure that I'm standing by the culture.
I'm applauding you.
I'm celebrating.
Yeah, I told you guys did a great job with the election,
but more importantly, just the growth of the Breakfast Club
and coming to a city, oh, the Breakfast Club here now,
and then I say, okay, well, she's doing this,
and I see Envy with me last night, and I see Charlamagne,
and me and him texting back and forth about things.
That, to me, is what I'm excited about.
And you guys are with me whether I'm doing records or sharpening pencils. And so that, to me, is what I'm excited about. And you guys are with me whether I'm doing records or sharpening pencils.
And so that, to me, was exciting.
Let's talk about Freestyle 50.
I was with you last night.
What's this new venture you're doing?
Well, you know, I always try to find a way to celebrate life.
And so think about the things that have happened during our existence.
We've had a black president.
That's not something that was before him.
So I think he freestyled his way
to the presidency. You know, I think
Serena Williams, when she picked up a
racket, what if her father said, no, I just want you
to go to school and do
something. I think she freestyled her way into
tennis. What if Tiger Woods would have never
picked up a golf club?
You know, what if Issa, who was
at Stanford, didn't decide to do Insecure?
You know,
now you have an opportunity
of barriers of entry
or broken down.
You can freestyle
your way to success.
You know what you used to do,
Angela.
You know what you used to do.
You look funny.
No, no.
You know what you used to do.
You know what I mean?
You know,
Charlamagne know
what he used to do.
We all used to do
something else
and we freestyled our way to our own success.
So every year.
Is that a great idea?
I was like, wait a minute.
Okay, guys.
Get your heads up and go to God.
Come on.
So I just want to celebrate, you know, people in life and people who freestyle their way through life.
And I partnered with Verizon, and we just want to go out and celebrate people.
So we launched it last night.
We want to give people the opportunity to freestyle their way to success.
I'm taking seven people and have them battle to give one prize.
But those seven people I'm putting on tour with my artists next year,
whether it's Young Thug, whether it's Migos, whether it's Trey, whether it's Day Day.
All seven of them?
All seven of them are going on one different tour throughout the country.
But then one of them I'm going to give a singles deal at $300.
London's going to produce the track, you for me shout out to London and hopefully everything's good with them and his fam and then also I'm gonna give
them $10,000 so here's a moment whether you dancing freestyling rapping
freestyling poetry freestyling whatever is freestyle your way to success explain
to us why you are you we probably got over two three thousand people and probably a million two million engagements already
i'm based on the contest so how do people how do people answer you upload yourself to twitter or
instagram uh rapping over a day they spend it you know what i mean somebody said uh spend that
spend that spend that ish i'm gonna win that ish i said no no homeboy i don't know if you're gonna
win this rapping like that but you know you you upload it and then I'm going to win that ish. I said, no, no, homeboy. I don't know if you're going to win this
rapping like that.
But, you know, you upload it,
and then we're going to choose London and I,
and we have a big event December 17th in Atlanta
that we're going to blow out.
You know what I mean?
That's a good way to promote Day Day's record, too.
See, now you go there.
You know what I mean?
I'm always thinking of good ways to do everything.
Oh, but I'm going to be in Atlanta December 17th, too.
Okay, so you're going to be with me.
So, you know, it's hashtag Freestyle 50 Challenge.
And I want to make sure people are due at Verizon and at 300.
And I have this joke.
You know, they got a lot of, I don't care who you decide to do,
but when you partner with somebody, partner with them.
You know, you guys have been here at iHeart,
and just to see what they've done with you guys,
that's true partnership. What I'm doing with Verizon
is true partnership. What I'm doing with Google and YouTube
is true partnership. So who
listens to all these things? Like, do you have a
team? Because that's going to be a lot of
entries. Those beautiful young ladies behind them probably.
No, so what
I do, I have, I got, it's myself,
it's London, it's my whole A&R team
at 300. It's QC, I got, it's myself, it's London, it's my whole A&R team at 300.
It's QC, the label.
It's Disturbance and Peace, the label.
It's TI Grand Hustle, the label.
My kids, RGF.
I got everybody giving me insight on what it is.
We're listening to every single thing.
And again, I'm not just listening to who can rap.
I'm listening to who's saying something.
You know, who's moving culture.
Who really telling me the truth about what's going on.
This is, as fun as it is, who's moving culture, who really telling me the truth about what's going on. This is
as fun as it is, it's really
about your life. I want to see you telling your
truth. You know when somebody telling you
the truth, when you're trying to say spend that and you
end up running out of money, you ain't spending
nothing. You don't know what that is.
I spend that ish.
So to me, it's just about telling your
truth and having a good time. Is that what you look
for? Because you always seem to embrace what's new, but you come from what's pure, like that 90s hip-hop.
How do you embrace what's new coming from that?
I'm always looking for that person that can walk in the room and people go, who's that?
But I'm also seasoned enough to know that you can't just be what you were. You have to allow
our culture to evolve. Think
about radio personalities
back in the day.
Y'all wouldn't even be allowed back in the day.
So think about where it is now. So if I was
ignorant enough to think that hip-hop wouldn't
evolve, hip-hop wouldn't change, people
wouldn't try to do different things, dress different
ways, I'll be ignorant to allowing it
to grow. And part of my job is staying awoke.
And awoke is allowing things to move around you and evolve
and also be in flow with water, you know?
All right, we got more with Kevin Lyles when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was Bryson Tiller with Don't Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Kevin Lyles is in
the building. Now, Yee? When you see kids
that have potential that want to be artists,
right, what do you think are some of the main
things that they need to know as fundamentals of
what they need to be doing in order to
get recognized and get better, get on
the radio, have people come to their shows? Like,
what are some things that really need to be worked on?
I think, you know, again, the barrier
entry is not there anymore. Everybody can be what they need to be worked on? I think, you know, again, the barrier entry is not there anymore.
Everybody can be what they want to be.
I don't care.
You don't have to go rent a camera from somebody.
You can use your phone and create your own story.
So I think all that's excuses when people say, oh, I can't do it or I can't get to this.
I don't have any money to get in the studio.
All that's excuses.
I need somebody to film this for me.
I can't do a video.
Excuses to me.
I say get hot because when you get hot, I'm going to find you. You know what I't do a video. Excuses to me. I say get hot
because when you get hot,
I'm going to find you.
You know what I mean?
You don't have to come to me
when you're not hot.
I got people who say,
well, this is my city.
I go to the city
and the record ain't playing
at one, two o'clock
in the morning.
Nobody's spilling drinks.
The girls ain't around you.
I got more girls around me.
I ain't even popping bottles.
You know what I mean?
So to me,
I just don't believe in it.
I think now the barrier
and entry is open.
Do you get out if you're an artist, an athlete?
Just do you, man.
The opportunity is there for every single person.
Everybody knows my story, but I'm from Baltimore.
I wasn't meant to be the president of this and the CEO of this.
I was supposed to be dead, on drugs, or in jail.
Period.
You know what I mean?
So don't give no excuses to me.
Do you think you'd have been bigger than what you are with all this technology that's available now if you had that back then?
Man, I'd be the president of the United States.
Listen, and the funny thing about it, that's why I'm back in it like that.
That's why you're going to see me around more than ever.
That's why I'm going to come spend more time with you guys.
And that's why we're going to be moving.
Here's what's not going to happen.
We're not going to have another election where 7 million
people that voted in 2012 don't vote.
We're not going to have another election where
46% of the people that were eligible
to vote didn't even get out and vote.
That we ain't doing no more. So what I realize
is, and while I'm
doing the whole freestyle
50 thing, I need everybody to understand
your freestyle still has to mean something to life.
It has to mean something to the culture. And you have to
move culture with your freestyle. So
I'm pushing people in the same way that
I'm always going to do with culture. I'm pushing
people and holding them responsible. I told
Trump's people, listen, at the end of the day,
I'm going to hold you accountable.
You're going to give me a seat at the table, I'm going to take a seat
at the table. And you will hear from our culture
and you will be responsible to our culture.
Now, what cities is Freestyle
50 coming to? Just so we know
for everybody that's trying to enter the win.
Well, it's really everywhere.
So everything is online.
We got Instagram and Twitter
you can upload to. And then we have
seven markets, mainly in the
South. My thing
is providing people with an opportunity
to get out and freestyle their way through life.
You know what I mean?
So hashtag Freestyle 50 Challenge.
But, you know, in closing, unless y'all got any questions, I just I really want to take time to say a lot of people,
people can interpret us being awake because we woke up.
But you're not awake until you ring the alarm for somebody to have faith
in being everything that they can be.
You're not awoken. If you're not changing somebody
else's life, if you're not inspiring people,
people call and they're really lost when they talk to you.
You know, they really feel like, how can
I find my way? And maybe even last night,
your set was
different from everybody's set. You know, that was your
crowd when you went on. This knucklehead
over here, you know, Charlamagne, you know,
people, as much as people might say he puts it straight to you,
he makes you tell your truth, you know,
because a lot of people come here bullshitting, you know what I mean?
So he makes you tell your truth.
So I really, really applaud you,
and please just continue to support me and all the efforts that we're doing.
Angela giving away coats this weekend.
I told her I want to do something special with her.
Close to the kids in Detroit. In Detroit. So whatever you guys are doing, we're here. Angela giving away coats this weekend. I told her I want to do something special with her. Close to the kids in Detroit.
In Detroit.
So whatever you guys are doing,
we're here to support each other.
So hashtag Freestyle50Challenge.
Make sure you go out and support us.
Atlanta, December 17th.
Angela is co-hosting with me.
I made that call.
There you go.
I made that call right now.
She's going to be there.
And again, I love you guys.
I did want your OG wisdom on one thing,
just to expound on it.
How do we move forward after this presidential election?
I think instead of having town hall meetings during an election season,
we need to have them now.
We just start mobilizing, communicating,
talking about the importance of not just getting out the vote,
but what does the vote mean?
I think we forgot.
I really think we got comfortable and complacent by having a black
man in the White House for eight years.
Oh, eight, big turnout.
Twelve, not that big of a turnout.
And then you had a social movement
with Bernie Sanders that was
going against the establishment. People
just don't want the establishment anymore.
So what we have to do is establish new
rules of engagement,
younger people getting involved.
The 30 years old changed the world.
32 years old, 35 years old changed the world.
Every one of us have to use our God given gift and our freestyle opportunity to engage other people.
Like I'm holding people accountable now.
Now, I'd say people doing all this mannequin and all that stuff.
How many of y'all voted?
You know, people out here going to all these parties. And they froze.
People out here going out to all these parties,
standing in line to buy $200, $300 tennis shoes,
and did you vote?
Right.
Did you tell somebody that, hey, it's important for you?
Just think about people dying for just the right.
You know what I mean?
I watched this movie the other day,
and even though you had the right to vote,
you got people standing there telling you you can the right to vote, you got people standing there
telling you you can't vote.
And now you got people saying,
hey, treat them like we used to treat them.
Oh, back in the day,
we wouldn't allow this.
But we sitting here allowing,
and I'm not saying it's not about revolution.
It's about evolution.
Understand what happened,
and now let's make a plan
and a course of action.
And I'm doing it.
Everywhere I go,
everybody's going to know how I feel about it.
And we're going to have
to mobilize,
centralize communication,
start having conversations
right now.
We could have won
the election as Democrats
if we would have
did the right thing.
I think a lot of people
made a lot of mistakes
and a lot of assumptions.
Just because your husband
is a former president
and everybody loves him,
just because you are the most qualified person
in the history of politics
since I've been alive
to be able to run for office
and you don't get elected,
there's something wrong.
But we are the problem.
I want you guys to understand what Trump did.
Trump said,
you talking middle right,
I'm going to talk way left.
I'm going to feed on people's insecurity. And their fears. And I'm going to talk way left. Right. I'm going to feed on people's insecurity.
And their fears.
And their fears.
And I'm going to make sure.
And these are things that happen.
It's in history.
He empowered the powerless.
He said, you know what?
Just like Barack awoke African-Americans, I'm going to go awake some other people.
And those people came out in droves.
Hillary didn't even win the white female vote.
That's crazy.
These were the people that were mad that Barack Obama was president for eight years.
No, this is what I'm saying.
You can't take it for granted. You can't
take life for granted anymore. You just can't.
If you guys don't evolve, you're not
going to be here anymore. If I don't evolve,
why you see me out there? I'm getting
next to the hot boy that's saying, yo,
what we doing? He got to tell me.
I ain't in it like I used to be, but you're definitely
going to see me out there. So I got to be next
to that energy, that energy that feeds me
every single day. And that's why I'm coming with
different campaigns and God bless,
hopefully, Verizon and say, man, that freestyle event
we did, we want to do 10 of them. Hey, we want
to do it next year. And we're going to start giving awards
to people who freestyle that way. I'm
hoping it turns into something even bigger.
My final question, what the hell's up
with Trey Songz?
Where's Trey?
Trey just shot five videos.
He's putting out
a little movie.
We shot a movie,
but I wanted to take
some time off
because we did it
for seven years.
It was great.
Sometimes you gotta
walk away from it,
and here's the great thing
about it.
Like I said last night,
you find a way,
you nurture a way,
and sometimes you just
gotta get out of the way
to see if somebody's there.
Ain't nobody there.
We back.
Damn it, man.
I agree.
What I said the other day,
remember when Trey
was the doll in the radio?
He did all the shows.
Took a break,
he did a movie.
All over the playlist.
I'm like,
where the hell is Trey now?
Yeah, we did a movie.
We did a thing with Kevin Hart.
This is one of our friends.
We did that record.
We shot a movie
that's coming out next year.
The album's done and everything.
We shot the videos last week, and he celebrated his birthday, you know, on Monday.
You know what I mean?
So it's all good.
Happy birthday, Trey.
Well, we appreciate you for joining us.
Always.
Ladies and gentlemen, Kevin Louse.
Thank you, guys.
God bless you.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Listen up. It's just the end. All the gossip. Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
The rumor report.
The gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report.
The Breakfast Club.
What is Charlamagne's favorite young money artist will have to serve a year in prison?
Little twist.
He's going to jail for beating up Disney star Chris Isn't he Massey?
Massey?
Alright Massey Now they said he has to
Serve a year
After allegedly beating up
And robbing
Former TV star
Chris Massey
And his brother
Kyle Massey
Well listen to the kids
You turn out to be
What you pretend to be
You want to act like a thug
You want to do thug things
Then go get some of
This thug time
Well just think about
The credibility he gets
When he comes home.
Knock it off. Lil Twist don't get no damn credibility.
He ain't got no credibility going in. How you gonna get credibility coming
home? He ain't got no credibility going in. He got credibility now.
He ain't gonna serve a year in jail. Shut up. You don't get no credibility. Stop that.
He'll come out and do a rap album.
Listen, don't listen to that beige negro over there talking.
Ain't no credibility going to prison. The credibility
is staying your ass out of jail and becoming
successful in life. You don't get no credibility going to jail.
This ain't the 90s. When he comes home,
you better watch out,
Sean.
Man, please.
I would tell him...
What?
You would tell him what?
You can't say that, right?
No, you cannot say that.
Well, I can't tell him that
because he might enjoy it
once he comes home from prison.
What I was going to tell him,
I'm not going to tell him
because he may enjoy it
when he comes home from prison.
But, you know,
the same way that you used
to hold Justin Bieber's penis
when he used to pee and you used to shake it for him a little twist, I'm sure you can find the same way that you used to hold Justin Bieber's penis when he used to pee
and you used to shake it
for him a little twist,
I'm sure you can find
somebody in prison
that'll enjoy that same treatment.
My goodness.
Now let's talk about Kim Kardashian.
She paid $2,500.
Guess what?
Guess why?
Guess why?
Guess why?
Guess why?
Get Kanye some Oxycontin.
No, she had to learn
how to braid Northwest's hair.
So she spent $2,500
to Beyonce's hairstylist, Kim Kimball, to come over and give her a quick rundown onto how to braid hair.
They don't got no black friends?
Don't they got them two twin girls and twin girls don't know how to braid no hair?
What's the girl's name?
The twins that be on Kardashians?
Well, not every black person knows how to braid hair.
Well, they ain't not black then.
I don't hate that.
What are you talking about?
Maybe they're not from the hood.
If you're not from the hood, you don't know how to braid hair.
Oh, you're not really black. Listen, if you don't
know how to braid no hair, and you know what I'm saying,
you ain't never got burned by a hot comb. Don't talk to me about
the struggles of black people. Well, she
paid $2,500, and now I guess she knows
how to braid Northwest hair. No, she don't.
Ain't no $2,500 gonna teach
them Armenian fingers how to braid no black
hair. Did she pay somebody
to do it? No, she paid somebody to teach
her how to do it. Man, she could have went on YouTube and got a tutorial.
She wanted him on YouTube teaching people how to braid hair.
She spending that kind of money?
You know how to braid hair, right?
No.
You know how to braid hair?
I can do a little bit.
You did as a kid.
You had sisters, you know.
Listen, I can do a little bit.
I can do the what?
What braid is that?
It's the French.
We're going to go one over one over one.
The three braids.
You can break it in three.
What's that?
French braid?
Is that the French braid?
I could do a French braid.
Why you say like that?
Yo, I hate you.
You light-skinned, though.
Shut up.
Drop one of the Clues bombs for all the waffle-colored
Negroes that know how to braid hair.
Not for nothing on some real-ish, I learned how to braid hair,
and I learned how to double-dutch.
You know how to double-dutch?
Salute to my man, Q.
You know what I'm saying?
Salute to my guy, Q.
Drop one of the Clues bombs for Q.
Q went to school with DJ Nvy. He did not go to
school with me. Well, Q braided your hair.
No, he dyed your hair. That's what he said
he did. Q did not dye my hair. He dyed
your hair or braided your hair? He worked at the shop
where I got my hair dyed when I was
in college. When you thought you was a member
of Drew Hill.
Salute to Q. Q told me he dyed Envy's
hair. He did not dye my hair. And he
said Envy sat between his legs. That's not true. And you know, he gave him a nice little dye set. Salute to Q. Q told me he dyed Envy's hair. He did not dye my hair. And he said Envy sat between his legs.
That's not true.
And, you know, he gave him a nice little dye set.
Salute to Q.
That's my guy.
Okay?
I love Q.
I love seeing him in action.
Salute to Q.
Love, bug.
Now, also, Tommy Loren was on Trevor Noah's daily show.
And people are pissed off about this.
Now, but these are both Charlamagne's friends.
And they speak to Charlamagne all the time.
Now, she was talking about her show. Friends i enjoy both of them though she was talking about her
views on the black lives matter movement let's let's say we got some audio because i criticize
a black person or i criticize the black lives matter movement that doesn't mean that i am
anti-black it does not mean that i don't like black people or that i'm a racist it means i'm
criticizing a movement i mean i've never used racial slurs to address people.
I've never looked down on someone because of
their skin color. To me, true diversity
is diversity of thought, not diversity of
color. I don't see color. I go after
Hillary Clinton and she's white as they come.
You don't see color. So
what do you do at a traffic light?
Okay, listen. I watch
a lot of Trevor Noah. Right.
I watch a lot of Tommy Loren. The. I watch a lot of Tommy Loren.
The best thing about that conversation was they weren't yelling at each other.
That's true.
They weren't talking over each other.
They had a conversation.
Trevor Noah absolutely owned that conversation.
He did.
But it was a conversation nonetheless, and I like that.
Let me ask you a question with Tommy Loren.
I've been trying to figure out for the last couple of months, last year actually,
could it be the fact that she really doesn't know
because she really doesn't understand?
She's never lived the tribe.
She's from South Dakota.
I don't know really any black people in South Dakota.
She doesn't understand what black people?
That's clear. That's obvious.
But with her, somebody you speak to,
why don't you bring her out sometime?
What do you mean?
Well, she's in New York now.
You should take her out in New York.
You should take her to Brooklyn.
You should take her to Queens.
You should take her shopping in some of the places where we shop. Brooklyn. You should take her to Queens. You should take her shopping
in some of the places where we shop. Take her to
Newark. Take her to go see some plays.
Take her to a club. I'm supposed to see her today.
Let her experience the African American lifestyle
so she can say, I understand.
I get it. I mean, she'll never truly understand it.
I mean, that's just... No, but she'll get a taste.
A lot of times people don't have that taste, so they don't know
what to expect. I'm supposed to spend
some time with her today. I don't know.
But, you know, I enjoy Tommy.
No, don't take her to a ritzy restaurant in the city.
When the hell do I be in ritzy restaurants?
You're right.
Stop it.
You're right.
Now, listen, I enjoy Tommy.
I don't agree with anything she says, but I enjoy watching her.
I'm not one of those people who watch things and complain about how much I hate them.
People do that with love and hip-hop.
Hell, they do that with The Breakfast Club.
But truth to the matter is, if you give something time and energy,
you actually enjoy it because if you
didn't, you wouldn't watch it at all.
I watch a lot of Tommy's, so even though I don't agree with what
she says, I clearly enjoy it because I'm
consuming it. If you truly don't like something,
you're a fool if you constantly consume
it, so people need to monitor that when they're
constantly watching something that they
claim to hate. She should come over to The Breakfast
Club. She's in town.
She's supposed to do that, too.
Oh.
Why are you acting like you don't know that?
Jesus Christ.
She's supposed to be here today.
I thought she wasn't coming.
That's what I was asking. That's what they're saying.
Because, you know, I guess after what happened with Trevor last night.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
She should come up here.
So she needs to come to the breakfast club and have some nice conversation.
We won't attack her.
We just want to have a conversation.
Yeah, we just want to talk to her.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right, well, that's the rumors.
Now, when we come back,
Charlemagne, you giving a donkey to somebody?
Well, yeah, I was on Empire last night.
We all were.
Yeah, we all were on Empire last night.
And I gave Jamal Lyon donkey of the day.
You gave him turkey of the day or something like that?
No, no, no, no.
I gave him donkey.
Turkey of the day or something?
No, they wanted me to do turkey of the year,
but we scratched that idea, and I was like, we got to get this Like a turkey of the day or something? They wanted me to do turkey of the year, but we scratched that idea.
And I was like, we got to get this branded for donkey of the day.
But they didn't play the full donkey.
No, they didn't.
So I think for the people, we should play the full donkey.
The whole thing?
The whole thing.
It was kind of, all right.
It was kind of what?
It was kind of disrespectful.
Listen, I write my own script.
Okay, you sure did.
That's why they cut half of it out.
Half?
75%, 80%, 85%, 90%.
Okay.
Well, let's play it.
Let's see what the people think.
All right.
When we come back, Keep It Locked, Donkey of the Day is up next,
or Turkey of the Day, whatever you want to call it.
Shut up.
It's the Breakfast Love.
Good morning.
Charlemagne, say the gang, Donkey of the Day.
Charlemagne.
You are a donkey. It's time gang Donkey of the day Charlamagne You are a donkey
It's time for donkey of the day
Donkey of the day does not discriminate
I might not have the song of the day
But I got the donkey of the day
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man
Hit it with the heat
It's the breakfast club bitches
Who's donkey of the day today
Donkey of the day for Thursday December December 1st. It's the first
of the month. Goes to Empire's
Jamal Lyon. I know that's a fictional character.
If you saw last night's Empire, you
saw me on there giving Jamal Lyon
donkey of the day. Let's hear the clip from last
night's Empire. Donkey of the day
today goes to one of Lucius Lyon's
khaki-colored kids, Jamal Lyon.
He's a guy born into music
royalty, and then he bitched up after he got shot.
Damn, I blame your daddy.
It's hard for me to believe that Lucius could raise
such a soft-ass individual.
You know he's a donkey, but he's more like a turkey.
He's donkier today, but he's turkey of the year.
Turkey of the year.
What?
Jesus Christ.
What is this for?
Bring me in on a Saturday to, what, attack me?
No, everything that Charlamagne is saying is true.
Turkey of the year?
Gobble, gobble, gobble?
Now, that was edited to fit the TV format, by the way.
They sent me a script and they said,
Charlamagne, we want you to give them turkey of the year.
Instead of the hee-haw, they wanted gobble, gobble sound effects.
And I immediately thought to myself, oh, hell no.
And two things I thought.
One, if you have me playing myself on a show or in a movie,
I'm not going to stick to any one script but my own.
You can't tell me how to play me.
I'm the best at playing myself.
It's the easiest thing to do, okay?
Only person I ever saw play themselves and do a terrible job
was Fantasia when she did her biopic.
Y'all remember that?
It was so bad.
It was bad.
And two, I'm not doing Turkey of the Year without doing Donkey
of the Day, okay? We got a brand new feature right here,
okay, with those millions and millions of people watching
Empire every Wednesday. So, after
seeing what they wanted,
seeing what they wanted me to do, you know,
ripping up the script they sent and doing
me, but still following their outline,
I gave Jamal Lyon Donkey of the Day.
Now, like I told y'all, what you saw on Empire last night
was edited to fit the TV format,
but I'm about to play you all Jamal Lyon's donkey of the day in full.
Envy thinks it's a bit much.
Why? I don't know.
Oh, you'll hear it.
It's not. It's light.
You ready?
Yep.
Okay, go.
Donkey of the day today goes to one of Lucious Lyon's khaki-colored kids,
Jamal Lyon.
Mr. You're so beautiful.
Mr. So what, I'm gay!
All right.
I like Jamal.
Bitch.
You know he's a donkey, but he's more like a turkey.
A peacock.
A peacock is technically a gay turkey, so yeah, he's a turkey.
He's donkey of the day, but he's turkey of the year.
Oh, boy.
Let me explain this dishonor
he's receiving today. See, every day
or any day I feel like it, I'm going to point out
how Jamal Lyon threw it all away.
Okay? He had to plan it by the balls.
Alright? Pun
intended, but he basically squandered
the world. Here's a guy born
in the music world. He's said to be
yet another light-skinned legend from the Lyon camp.
Oh, he was riding that waffle-colored wave, okay?
And then he bitched up after he got shot.
Damn, all right.
You know good and damn well that when artists get shot,
if they live to tell the tale, they become immortal.
He's not a rapper.
I'm saying, though.
Think of the first time Tupac got shot, right?
Off 50 Cent.
True.
All right, Jamal, you was poised to be our next hero, but...
Turkey, turkey, turkey, turkey, turkey.
I'll blame your daddy.
Okay, it's hard for me to believe that a ruthless redbone, a canary-colored savage like Lucius
could raise such a soft-ass individual such as yourself.
Lucius, you're supposed to raise a beige brick.
Okay, Jamal's supposed to be a brick in the yellow brick road,
but instead he's one of those soft ass memory foam pillows.
That's the color of dirty urine.
Okay.
If I lightly touch his cheek like this, it'll leave a handprint.
All right.
And Jamal, that's what you will be until you get back on stage and make some dope music.
And no, I'm not talking about a living room show with your little brother wearing under rules.
How silly do y'all look?
Two dudes whose melanin is the color of mustard walking around in under rules.
Pretty silly.
He's a sweetheart.
Please give Jamal Lyon the biggest hee-haw, please.
I can see why they might have not played the whole thing.
I can see why they...
Took a couple things out.
I can see why they might have.
I can see why they would have took a couple things out here and there.
I mean, you called him a peacock.
That's okay.
Said he has... A gay turkey is a peacock. That's okay. Said he has...
A gay turkey is a peacock.
There's nothing wrong
with that, though.
What about holding balls?
What did you say about that?
He had the game by the balls.
Literally.
Drop on the clues bombs
for Jamal Lyon.
And, yeah, that was the full...
You went too far.
I didn't go too far.
But two with the Empire
for the look. Drop on the clues bombs for Empire. too far. But two, the Empire for the look.
Drop on the clues, bombs to Empire.
I appreciate it.
Second time we've been on the show.
Third, really.
And Angela, you was on there?
Mm-hmm.
I've been on there before.
My daughter seen it.
She was excited.
She was like, Dad, you're on TV.
How'd you get on TV?
Only reason they never put Envy on there
is because, you know,
their quota with beige people,
they maxed that out.
They got this whole affirmative action thing.
See, beige people are never accounted for
when it comes to affirmative action.
But Empire exceeds that quota by far.
They got to kill some beige people.
They got to kill.
There you go.
See?
I get it.
There you go.
All right.
Well, thank you.
I don't want to even say thank you for that, Donkey, or Turkey of the Week, whatever you
want to call it.
All right.
Now, when we come back, it's time for relationship advice.
Any type of advice.
Not just relationship.

We are The Breakfast Club.
Now it's time for Ask C&E. Usually we do Ask Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. Now it's time for Ask C and E.

We got a lot of new listeners.
I said Yee's not here.
Angela Yee.
Okay, Angela Yee's not here.
Yeah, Angela Yee's not here.
So Charlamagne and Envy
will be doing the segment for her.
Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy,
host of The Breakfast Club
for all of our new listeners out there.
Are you all right?
You know, we have those meetings, Suja Dennis Clark and Thea.
They're like, keep introducing yourselves to people.
I did it when I opened the break.
Oh, you're right.
If you got a question for us, hello, who's this?
Hello?
Hey, man, what's your question for C&E?
Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy.
Shut up.
Hey, how you doing?
My name is LeVon Moore.
My name used to be LaVon Obama.
For the past eight years, I've been trying to get in contact with my adoptive father,
President Barack Obama.
But I don't know what's the best way to go about it.
First of all, if you're adopted, that means that Barack and Michelle adopted you, right?
Yes.
So would they adopt you and then put you back up for adoption?
They adopted me in 1999 when I was 12 years old.
And what happened?
I lived with them until the age of 15
and I moved my brothers
and foster kids
and I got adopted
by somebody else.
So you make poor choices
in your life.
Yeah, you make poor choices.
You should have stayed
with Barack and Michelle.
Yeah, I know, I know.
You made the bad choice.
I know, but we went
to school together
and everything.
We went to
Columbia University in 2004.
How you went to school
with him and he adopted you?
Because he went to school
at the same time.
We both went to school.
How old are you?
I'm 30 years old.
Man, shut up, man. Barack Obama's like 60-something are you? I'm 30 years old. Hey, shut up, man.
Barack Obama like 60-something years old.
I'm sorry, people. Hello, who's this?
Caroline. Hey, Caroline. Ask your question for C&E. Charlamagne Tha God and DJ
Envy of The Breakfast Club.
Hey, you guys. Okay, so
I'm in school full-time. I'm a senior
and I work full-time.
I'm a paralegal. Well, my husband
does not work. We have a one-year-old.
So when I come home, I get home at like 8 or
9 o'clock after being in school or work
all day. And I'm expected
to cook and clean, take care of the baby,
change all the diapers
and all that. And he has
nerves to bitch about
where's dinner and
all this stuff. And I'm like, what were you doing all day?
I mean, he's taking care of your baby, your
child. You think it's easy taking care of one year old
all day long? He doesn't.
No, no, no. She's in daycare every day. Oh.
I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't have no
sympathy for him because he don't got no job. So being
that he don't have no job, the domestic
duties that he expects you to do, he
should be doing because he's at home all day. Yeah, he should be doing.
So what is he doing all day?
I really don't know. Like he, I mean, what is he doing all day? I really don't know.
He plays
video games and stuff, but I don't really know.
He takes a couple classes
in there, but I'm in full time.
What's your name, Caroline? Yes.
How's his penis? Oh, Lord.
No, I don't even want to get started on that.
No, we need to know these things to properly diagnose
the situation. Just tell us yes or no. Is it good?
Yes or no?
It's alright. It's all right.
It's not good.
All right, well, this is what you need.
You need a boyfriend.
But I'm married.
I can't help it.
No, no, no.
Listen, I'm going to give you the same advice I would give a guy.
If you're playing video games all day, you're not really married.
That's not a grown-up relationship.
Yeah, you need a boyfriend.
You need a boyfriend or he needs a girlfriend.
One of the two.
Yeah.
I think you need a boyfriend, though, because if you had a boyfriend,
when you came home, you wouldn't care
what nonsense he was talking about
because you'd be coming home with a smile on your face
because you'd be getting constant orgasms.
Get a boyfriend. Yeah, I'm just over it.
I'm over it. You shouldn't be over it.
I'm working all day and coming home for that. You tell him
either he gets a job or you get a boyfriend.
Or you stop paying his bills. You shouldn't have
a cable anymore. You should stop paying his bills.
Let him really feel like what it is to work, and maybe he'll fix up.
All right.
Tell him, get a job or you getting a boyfriend, boo.
800-585-1051.
We're trying to fix lives this morning.
Ask C&E.
Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy of The Breakfast Club.
Call us up right now.
We'll help you with your problems.

It's DJ Envy,
Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for Ask Yee,
but Yee is not here,
so it's Ask C and E.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, now.
Hey.
What's your question for C and E?
Charlamagne Tha God
and DJ Envy
of The Breakfast Club.
First of all,
I absolutely love you guys.
I listen to you every morning,
so does my honey. Mm-hmm. I have a little bit of you guys. I listen to you every morning. So does my honey.
I have a little bit of a situation that I wanted to get some advice from a gentleman.
What's that?
So I've been dating my partner exclusively.
We lived together in a house and everything for about 13, 14 years.
When you say partner, you mean lesbian?
No, my significant other, my boyfriend.
Oh, okay.
And again, we lived together.
We've been together for like almost 14 years.
And I'm starting to get to the point now where I no longer really feel that he's physically attracted to me.
Now, let's be real.
I can absolutely send you pictures on a scale of a 1 through 10 because of my success, accomplishments, financial situation, etc.
I'm typically more on the scale of a 9.
What's your Instagram?
What's your Instagram? I don't need you making these decisions for yourself. I need to make these decisions for cetera. I'm typically more on the scale of a nine. What's your Instagram? What's your Instagram?
I don't need you making these decisions for yourself.
I need to make these decisions for you.
I understand.
What's your Instagram?
You got Instagram?
Let me send you a picture.
I do not.
I don't do social media.
BreakfastClubAM at gmail.com.
You don't have a password to that, do you?
Yes, I do, actually.
Okay.
So what's your question?
You want to know why he's not physically attractive to you anymore?
I'm just trying to understand how to tell if he is because we don't have sex as often.
He's gay.
Yeah.
I mean, easy diagnosis.
What else?
It's just really a lot of the emotional things that we used to connect on, we're not connecting
as much anymore.
Does he have a good job?
He has a good job.
We both have good jobs. Is he stressed out at all? He has a good job. We both have good jobs.
Is he stressed out at all?
We both make good money.
Oh, he definitely has some work-related stress, absolutely.
That could be part of it.
Have you gained weight?
I have not.
Well, maybe about five to seven pounds.
How long has he not been hitting that box?
About a month.
Oh, that ain't long.
Oh, that's long for us.
We're like once a month now at best.
Okay.
And more times than not, it's me more being a satisfactory partner for him versus for me.
So, Charlamagne, what do you suggest?
Ain't no picture in my inbox yet because it can only be four things.
What's that?
Either he's gay.
Okay.
Either he's stressed out.
Right.
Or the other thing I said.
She gained a little weight.
Yeah, either he's gay.
Oh, he has a side chick.
Oh, either he's gay, she's stressed out, or he has a side chick. Oh, either he's gay,
she's stressed out,
or he got a side chick,
or you're just not as hot as you think you are.
Okay.
You ain't sent me a picture yet
for me to come to the conclusion.
Hello, who's this?
This is Wanda.
Hey, Wanda.
Good morning.
Good morning.
How are you?
I'm good.
What's your question for C&E?
Charlamagne Tha God
and DJ Envy of The Breakfast Club.
Good morning, Charlamagne.
Good morning, Envy.
Good morning.
Ha ha!
That's a good word.
That's good.
Our consultant's gonna like that one. All Alright, now, what's your question?
Alright. My question
this morning is, what do you
do when you're trying to break it off with someone
and you've been doing it for the longest and
they won't leave? Now, are you having this
problem with a man or female? A man.
You got to tell him that
you cheated on him and got herpes and you don't
want to give him the herpes too.
That would work.
I'm so serious, y'all.
I'm very serious.
I'm being honest with you.
Don't tell him something like that.
I mean, I really want him to get out.
You want him to leave?
Yeah, goodbye.
Plant a gun on him.
Plant an illegal gun and some dope on him and call the police.
That's a little too far.
I'm in South Carolina and y'all trying to put me in jail.
What part of South Carolina are you in?
Orangeburg. Are you in the burg? Yeah'all trying to put me in jail. What part of South Carolina are you in? Orangeburg.
Oh, you in the burg?
Yeah.
Why do you want him
out of your life?
What's wrong with him?
What did he do to him?
He has cheated.
He doesn't work.
He just,
I don't know.
So he's a no good
for nothing man.
Exactly.
Pack your stuff up
and move to Columbia
or Charleston.
No, I'm not moving anywhere.
I'm staying where I am and he's going to get out.
He ain't going nowhere.
Like I said, I think that's the best way.
Tell him you want him out.
If he doesn't list, you throw his stuff out.
You seem like a strong husky woman that you ain't going to take no...
He said you sound like you got big forearms, ma.
No, I don't have big forearms.
I have some big other things, but no forearms.
Listen, I told you what to do.
Plant some dope on him, but no for them. Listen, I told you what to do. Plant some dope on them.
Oh, my Lord.
Tell them you got herpes and you don't want to be in this life no more.
All right.
Why are you making this complicated?
All right.
We just out here to try to help the culture.
I think we helped a lot of people this morning.
I do too, man.
I think we changed some lives this morning.
I agree with you.
I feel like Pastor Carl Lynch right now.
I don't know about all that, but we did some positivity in the world this morning.
All right. Ask Yee. I mean, of course, Yee's we did some positivity in the world this morning. Alright, ask
Yee. I mean, of course, Yee's not here.
Ask Anjali Yee. She's not here.
So C&E held it down. Charlamagne Tha God and DJ
Envy of The Breakfast Club. If you wonder why I keep saying
that over and over, because as we
get all of these new markets, we just got two new markets
yesterday, Portland and where? Arizona?
Yes. You know, our consultant always
tells us to keep constantly reminding people of who you
are. So you're listening to Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy of The Breakfast Club.
And that was Ask Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy.
But it's usually a segment called Ask Ye as in Angela Ye.
Now we're about to do the rumor report from Angela Ye.
But she's not here.
So DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God are doing it.
All right.
When we come back, 21 Savage wants to tear that ass up.
We'll tell you what ass he's talking about.
And Yeezy, he's out.
He's out.
What Yeezy?
Kanye.
Kanye West, not Yeezy as in Angela Yeezy.
You don't shut up this morning, man.
Yeezy's out.
We'll tell you about it when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yeezy.
Rumor has it.
On your breakfast club.
So listen up.
Kanye West has finally been released from his psych hold at UCLA Medical Center.
That's after checking himself in during Thanksgiving week.
Now, also yesterday, I don't know how this came out.
Rumor has it that Yee and Kim Kardashian have been having problems.
They've been beefing.
They had a little space, allegedly.
They're saying that this is all because of Kanye's ranting.
They said all night long, all he does is just rant, rant, rant, rant, and she needed some space.
By the way, if you lived in the house with Kanye West and all he did was rant, rant, rant, rant, rant, you need some space too.
Okay?
And, you know, Kanye did what any man did when he having problems in a relationship.
Sometimes you got to fade crazy to get your girl back.
Well, it seems like it did work
because they say allegedly that they weren't seeing eye to eye.
She was kind of staying away from him.
But as soon as he wound up in the hospital,
she came right to his side.
I just want to know what y'all going to do the next time Kanye rants
because sometimes we call him Kanye Rant.
Sometimes we call him verbal screams of consciousness.
Are we going to ignore them or not respect them as much anymore
because he's now mentally ill?
What y'all going to do?
Y'all got to think about this the next time he goes into a rant.
Now, also, 21 Savage seems like he wants to tear that ass up.
And when we talk about ass, we're talking about Kylie, that tiger's girlfriend.
He even did a song about it. We have audio?
We touched
the day like I
did.
And I was gonna tear
your ass up.
Drop on a Clues bomb for 21 Savage.
My three favorite
rappers, new rappers
of the year were 21 Savage
and Nick Grant.
That's who I enjoy listening to.
Now, if you were Tiger, would you feel a way about this?
I mean, yeah, but there's nothing he can do about it.
You say it one time. Because 21 Savage
already told you, everywhere he go, he keep a chopper
with him. Whoa. Okay?
And he ain't with that diss song stuff.
He'll be done shot a negro. Whoa.
Okay? So Tiger need to ask himself, does he really want
those problems in his life?
And plus, he dating Kylie Jenner.
Kylie's a bad chick.
You know how many dudes be on social media all day long talking about they want to smash Kylie?
Yeah, true.
You can't just point out 21 Savage.
You better keep it moving,
because you might get shot.
Yeah, true.
All right, now Snoop Dogg,
he challenges two chains to a basketball game.
Now, this is funny.
You know when you start getting older,
you really don't want to play basketball?
You don't want to play one-on-one,
so you say, I challenge you to a game of...
I thought they were talking about smoking weed.
No.
They're talking about playing basketball, and the winner has to buy a pound of weed.
Oh, I missed that.
But when you get old, you don't want to play one-on-one.
You want to play a game of horse.
Okay.
Let's play.
Hit the audio.
Two chains.
We're going at the ball now, boy.
You shouldn't have said that.
I'm on you now.
21 in the game of horse.
Winner
pays a pound.
Loser,
two pounds.
I missed all that. I thought they was really about
having a smoking weed challenge. No.
I didn't play basketball. I don't even know how it got that way
because 2 Chainz actually played ball in college
and it's dead nice in basketball.
I don't know. I've never seen Snoop play ball. Snoop's 6'7".
That's true. Not really 6'7", but Snoop play ball. Snoop's 6'7". That's true.
Not really 6'7",
but he tall.
About 6'4", 6'5".
Eh, be a good game.
Maybe get some money
for charity and all that stuff.
You ain't talking about
Tommy and Trevor again?
You want to do
Tommy and Trevor again?
Because you know Tommy,
Tommy, Tommy Lauren
was supposed to be a guest
on The Breakfast Club.
She was supposed to be here today.
What happened with that?
I thought she was coming up here.
I had my questions already.
They pulled her
after what happened, I guess, last night
on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. Well, if you
don't know what happened last night, let's play some audio of
their, I should say,
interaction on The Daily Show. Their
conversation. When the Black Lives
Matter movement is going out with signs saying
fry them like bacon, F the police. When they're going
out saying if you see a white person, target them.
That happened in Milwaukee not too long ago.
So when that now becomes the narrative and you're starting to loot burn and riot what did the kkk
do that is not look did you say what did the kkk do no trevor when you're saying when there are
people in the street saying if you see a white person beat their ass does that not sound reminiscent
of the kkk or their motives to you is that the narrative of black lives matter or are there
people who are saying that within a crowd of other human beings?
Now, I watch a lot of Trevor Noah. I watch a lot of Tommy Lauren.
The best thing about that conversation was they weren't yelling at each other.
They weren't over talking each other. They had a conversation.
Trevor Noah owned the conversation, but it was still a conversation.
And that's great because in this era, everybody has all these differences, whether it's black and white or gay and straight or man versus woman, Islam and Christianity,
alt-right versus control, alt-delete or whatever.
But everybody's just yelling at each other and over-talking each other.
Nobody actually having a conversation.
At least they was able to have a conversation.
Now, she's a friend of yours.
Somebody who speaks her life.
Friend is a strong word, but I enjoy her.
I enjoy her and I enjoy Trevor Noah.
And I know people are like, how do you enjoy Tommy Lawrence? Sounds sexual.
Listen, I don't agree with
90% of what she says, but I enjoy
watching her. See, I'm not one of those people who watch
things and complain about how much I hate them.
People do that with Love & Hip Hop.
They do that with The Breakfast Club. But if you give something
time and energy, you're actually enjoying it.
Because if you didn't, you wouldn't watch it at all.
You shouldn't constantly consume things
that you claim you don't like.
So if you're constantly consuming it, you probably enjoy it.
So yes, I do enjoy her.
So what you should do, since you do enjoy her,
and you speak to her often on the phone.
Who said I speak to her often on the phone?
I just threw that in there.
But you should actually, since she's in New York now,
you should take her around New York.
Because she might not know much about black people.
She's from South Dakota.
I don't know too many black people from South Dakota.
So you should actually take her to Brooklyn and get some cheesecake. You should take her to the hood. Because she might not know much about black people. She's from South Dakota. I don't know too many black people from South Dakota.
So you should actually take her to like Brooklyn and get some cheesecake.
You should take her to the hood. I don't go to Brooklyn to get cheesecake.
I know, but you should take her so she can experience it.
I don't be in the hood.
Take her to the strip club.
Take her to Aces.
Let her experience the club and then leave Aces.
That's your life.
Have the cops pull you over and then she can feel like a certain way.
Like, damn, why did the cops pull me over?
It happens all the time.
By the way, if the cops pull me over, I'm going to tell her to jump in the backseat.
I'm her driver.
Okay?
And she will be good.
You should really take her around the city and let her experience everything that we talk about.
I am going to get up with her today.
But like I said, she's...
No bougie restaurant.
When do I do bougie restaurants?
You're right.
Listen.
Take her to Sylvia's in Harlem.
She was supposed to be on The Breakfast Club today, but I guess her network, The Blaze, pulled her
because maybe they're trying to do damage control
because she got like 60,000 tweets,
and all of those tweets seemed like they ain't nothing but slander
after what they saw on Trevor Noah last night.
Take her uptown, Spanish Harlem,
let them see some Latinos getting empanadas and stuff.
By the way, the best thing for her,
if you're trying to do damage control for her PR people,
is to let her come to The Breakfast Club, by the way, the best thing for her, you know, if you're trying to do damage control for her, her PR people, is to let her come to the Breakfast Club.
By the way.
Alright. We'd let her
get her points out, just like Trevor did.
You know, we'd have a good conversation.
Is she, um...
Racist? A bigot? I don't know. Those are questions
we could have asked. I was gonna ask if she had a boyfriend,
because sometimes she just seems like... Hey! You know that was
the number two, three question on my list.
She seems like she needs some D. Have you ever had some D?
Preferably, have you ever had black penis?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Maybe that's what it is.
Have you ever had some black penis?
We'd like to know these types of things.
Because we have a black guy up here that's big and black.
I'm sure that would give her the D there, Mike.
There's a lot of big black guys around here, sir.
What are you talking about?
Yeah.
Shut up.
But anyway, yes, Tommy Lauren was supposed to be on the Breakfast Club.
But her network, The Blaze, pulled her because I guess they're trying to do damage control
based off, you know, Trevor Noah owning her last night.
Drop one of Clues bombs for Trevor Noah.
It's my guy.
All right.
Drop one of Clues bombs for Tommy Lauren, too.
It's my girl.
All right.
I enjoy both of them.
Okay.
All right.
Well, that was the rumors.
Shout to Revolt TV.
We'll see you guys tomorrow.
Everybody else, the People's Choice mixes up next.
You want to hear something at DJ Envy on the Gram or Twitter, we got you.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh, my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama
who refused to give up her seat on the city bus
nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.
Check it. Did you know, did you know, I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment.
Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.
