The whole Madison Square Garden organization and all that. Last night they had HBCU night where they repped for all the HBCUs. Well, a lot of them, I should say. Well, they should win for the HBCU fans that are Knicks fans. That's what they should do on nights like that. That boy Trey Young. So, I mean, they had Howard University. They had the gentleman from Howard.

He was an announcer. They had brothers and sisters from other organizations singing the national anthem and doing so many different things. Yeah, they did everything for their fans but went. Yeah, but we had a great time. I took my daughter, so it was date night, me and my daughter. And, I mean, the Knicks were playing some good ball. I'm not even going to lie. They were up, I think, like 14 one time.

And then that boy Trae Young, man. I think he scored 45 last night. He went off. He went off last night. That's against the Knicks. Don't count. Randa wasn't playing. No, Randa was injured, so he was out.

But, I mean, it was still a great game. So, shout out to the New York Knicks again. Shout out to Worldwide West. All right. Worldwide West. I seen him last night. I saw Taylor Brooks was there. I didn't see Taylor Brooks

but Wes was like Taylor Breakfast Club I said good morning and what's up and you guys are invited anytime you guys want to come on through

I was actually supposed to go last night but I ended up not being able to make it it was a great game I had a good time last night me and my daughter

was there it was date night we had some dinner it was just cool it was a good night I just got home late I ain't even gonna lie I I got home late. You know, after you get home a certain time, you're like,

damn it, I'm tired. Well, that's, yeah, when you old, once you get home a certain time, you know it's gonna be hurting them more. It hurts. When you old and you get home at a certain time, if you get in bed like 11, 1130 and we gotta get up at 4 o'clock, you know it's gonna hurt in the morning. It was 12. I got home at 12 o'clock and, you know, I got a new born and the new born started

with the eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. And I'm like, no! By the way, you don't even have to be out of the house. You can be home. And if you go to bed too late, you know it's going to hurt in the morning. Yeah, all right. You got to pick and choose those shows you want to scream wisely. You got to pick and choose those games you want to stay up for late wisely, okay?

Goodness gracious. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Lotto will be joining us this morning. Big Lotto. Big Lotto. She got an album coming out this Friday, 777, so we're going to be kicking it with Lotto. Oh, I like Lotto a lot.

I'm excited for that. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Yes, let's talk about Deion Sanders. He is putting 10 NFL teams on blast, and we'll tell you why. All right, we'll get to that next. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

You switch like a bloke. Morning, everybody. Good morning. It's DJ, MV, Angelou Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Where we starting, Yeezy? Well, for hump day Wednesday, more than 65 million people from central Florida to Southern Michigan and east to the Virginia coast are under a slight risk for severe weather.

There was a tornado that went through New Orleans yesterday that killed at least one person and homes were destroyed. Knocked down power lines. And so yet another setback there. All right. Also, Deion Sanders is putting 10 NFL teams on blast. And that is for missing Jackson State's pro day. So what it is, is they gave the student athletes a chance to show off their skills in front of NFL scouts. 22 teams showed up.

But Deion Sanders put on blast the 10 who didn't. Here's what he said. Our pro day. 22 teams out here. Yeah. And you guess what? That means 10 of them is missing. Don't think

I ain't going to call you out. You didn't. It's missing. If I catch you at Mississippi State or Ole Miss, it's going to be a problem. That's all I'm saying. It's going to be a problem. Our kids are that good that you should have shown up to. Exposure is important. I'm going to expose them. Exactly. My desire is

seven to ten players this year drafted. Then we're going to try to double that and double that, and then the sky's going to be the limit. I love what Coach Sanders is doing, man. No, I love that too because that's a good use of social media. You know what I'm saying? You put those NFL teams on blast for not showing up to Pro Day because, you know, kids will go to Jackson State for Dion,

but they also want to be able to say, hey, this is a program that can possibly get me into the league as well. Absolutely. So yes, it's very important that those scouts show up to Pro Day. And it was a joint Pro Day, so it was three HBCUs. And they held that joint Pro Day in part to give more HBCU players a chance to show off their skills in front of NFL scouts. And actually, last year, there were no HBCU players selected in the draft.

So Coach Sanders is saying that he hoped that never happens again. Here he is calling out those teams. Good day and God bless. Yesterday was phenomenal. All the kids that participated on Pro Day, hats off to you. God bless you. 24 teams came to witness our kids yesterday in its entirety, and I appreciate you.

But there's 32 teams in this Crayola box. Therefore, the Dolphins, the Broncos, the Texans, the Bills, the Buccaneers, the Ravens, the Panthers, the Browns, the Vikings, and the Eagles. Where are they? In the NFL, it makes no sense because the league is like 70%, 80% black players. So why wouldn't you go to where the black players are? There's an abundance of black players at HBCUs.

Go get some of them hidden gems, man. All right. Now, this is an update for DJ Envy. The quote-unquote gay dog that was given up by its owners over perceived homosexual behavior now has been adopted. So that's good news, right? North Carolina Steve Nichols told TMZ that he and his longtime partner, John, adopted Fezco Tuesday after hearing the story.

He said he felt an immediate connection to Fezco as he explained that both he and John have faced discrimination in their own lives. Oh, the gay dog got adopted by a gay couple? Yes. Drop on the clues, bombs for all this gayness. That's amazing. Mm-hmm. So there you go.

The dog's name is now Oscar. Once again, though, the dog's behavior was not gay. It was just the behavior of a dog. It was being a dog. Okay? The dog got dropped off to the animal shelter for being a dog. That's what dogs do. Male dogs hump other male dogs as a sign of dominance.

Okay, male dogs sniff other dogs' butts, male or female. Okay, they leak their privates and others' privates. I'm just saying. We understand. He was being a dog. My God. All right, Oscar. Enjoy your new home.

There you go. They changed his name? Yeah. Fesco was way more fire. You're like Oscar? Fesco was way more fire. Fesco was way more fire than Oscar. Come on. Oscar's named after Oscar Wilde, the Irish poet

and playwright. Who was also gay, by the way. I thought they were naming their dog after Dave Maloney. Yeah, I thought so too. Oscar Wiener? That's what I thought. Fesco was way more fire. Wasn't the dog named after the guy from Euphoria? Wasn't the fool named Fesco? Drop on the Clues box for Fesco was better. Wasn't the dog named after the guy from Euphoria? Wasn't the fool named Fesco?

Drop on a Clues box with Fesco. Yeah, I like Fesco, bro. Fesco, man. Come on, didn't he get you another dog named Ashtray? That's what you do. Come on. They're restarting his life. Yeah.

All right, that's your rumor. You just can't change somebody's name. Yes, you can. Well, I did it. Yes, you definitely can. You definitely can. We do it all the time. Yes.

You call yourself Envy. Very true. Charlamagne. I'm not disagreeing with you. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. It's a new dog. They're going to be calling Oscar.

The dog's not even going to know his name. He'll learn it. Just like you learned Envy. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, call us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on.

I'm blessed, black and highly favored. Good morning

to my breakfast club. Morning. Yes, sir. I want to, Charlamagne, I want to thank you guys for sending me the book

by Dr. Walker. It changed my perception and I want to pick your brain about something bad out of it. Okay. When she was talking about her low-key thoughts of suicidal thoughts thoughts do you think

these brothers out here taking each other's head or are low-key suicidal cases running around i don't value their own life so they definitely don't value your next one's life yeah but i yeah i look at it in a different way i look at it that you know that they they got so much hurt and so much trauma in them that they haven't dealt with it and a lot of times we end up projecting that hurt or trauma on the other people you know and i do yeah i do feel like sometimes suicide people hurt them hurt themselves but other people that are hurt hurt others right i labeled that when you were talking about it i label everything i call it black anxiety suppression just the anxiety of being black. Black anxiety suppression. A black man is suffering the suppression of that.

Because a lot of us don't address it, haven't addressed it. Yeah, we don't deal with that anger. We don't deal with the root causes of our hurt. And most of the time, it stems from something that happened to you in your childhood, too. Facts. Facts. That's why I encourage these brothers out here just to love on each other a little bit more. My son and I came up with something,

and I want to tell you, you know my son is a homophobic father. So we came up with a hypothesis of, first of all, what's your PF rating today, brother? What's PF? What's your psychological fortitude? What's your PF rating? Ooh, okay. I like that. I like that. What is yours today?

I want to know what's everybody's today. Today, I'm at about a seven today. I feel good. I'm just a little exhausted. That's all. I feel you.

I feel you. You're the black man. We are exhausted. And what if they had a mask to deflate your PX with me? This is a hypothesis me and my son came up with. And if you're in a woman, you're all the way done.

Somebody just runs up and gives you a hug. Yeah, that's why you got to tell people, man. Tell other men, too. I love you. I value you. I appreciate you. Tell people you love them, you value them, you appreciate them. That right there makes your P.F. rating go up.

Absolutely, brother. Look, I love you, King. I love you. You guys are the fabric of the culture. I love what you do. Keep it up, man. You're the fabric of the culture. I love what you do. Keep it up, man. You know what it is, man. Follow me on the gram.

Love you, XL, H-E-0. I'm around. All right, love you. Love you, King. Hello, who's this? Maxor from Harlem. What's your name? Maxor.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia.

I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.

I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullet holes. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.

Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning. Let's get to the rumors.

Let's talk to iHeart Awards. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee. So the 9th annual iHeartRadio Music Awards was yesterday airing from LA I had no idea

You didn't know? I had zero idea That's how you know iHeartRadio is a big ass company It was on our schedule for all this time I had no idea that iHeartRadio was happening last night I mean we didn't get invited I had zero idea. That's how you know iHeart is a big ass company. It was on our schedule for all this time. I had no idea iHeart World was happening last night.

I mean, we didn't get invited, but we knew about it because it was on the calendar that our producer sends us every day. I had no idea. I didn't know either. Y'all need to read that. It says big on top. I didn't know if it was live. I didn't know where it was being shown. I didn't know. I saw it on Shade Room.

You see that? That's why I saw that. I was like, oh, okay. All right. Well, let's talk about some of the winners then. Song of the Year was Dua Lipa, Levitating. Female Artist of the Year was Olivia Rodrigo. Male Artist of the Year was Lil Nas X. Best Duo Group was Anderson.Paak and Bruno Mars with Silk Sonic.

Best New Pop Artist was Olivia Rodrigo. Also, Pop Album of the Year was Adele. Hip Hop Song of the Year was Pop Smoke, What You Know About Love. Hip Hop Artist of the Year was Drake. Best New Hip Hop Artist was Young Blue. Hip Hop Album of the Year was The Off Season by J. Cole. R&B Song of the Year was Leave the Door Open by Silk Sonic. R&B Artist of the Year was Jasmine Sullivan.

Best New R&B artist was Gideon. And so those are some of the winners. And Megan Thee Stallion accepted the Trailblazer Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. Here's what she had to say on that stage. I will keep on continuing to be a voice for the voiceless. I will keep on fighting for all the injustices that me, my black women, my black men are facing.

And I will keep showing up and showing out, even in the face of adversity. How did they pick the winners for the iHeart Awards? Like, I know other award shows, like, you know, I've voted for other award shows before, but how did they pick the iHeart Award winners? I don't know. Oh. Other award shows, like, you know, I've voted for other award shows before. But how did they pick the iHeart Award winners? I don't know.

Oh. You said what? People vote. He said people vote. Who are the people? Like, people? Like, listeners? Yeah, listeners.

Anybody. How are you acting like you know all of us? Because I hear Eddie screaming it out. Oh. From the other room. Ain't you an executive here? Yes. Well, shouldn't you an executive here? Yes. Well, shouldn't you know these things? No.

Clearly I don't. They must promote this stuff just on the pop station. This must be just for the pop station. All right. Now, J-Lo accepted her Icon Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. And Ben Affleck was in the crowd, in the audience, very excited, stood up and clapped and everything. And here's what she said. Icon. I can overcome negativity.

And so can you. Every single moment. Let me tell you something. And let me tell you something else. I'm just getting started. She also performed as well after getting that prize. And LL Cool J was hosting and he performed. All right, also, we told you Lil Nas X was male artist of the year. And here's what he had to say as he got his award.

I always get shaky when I come on stage, like no matter what. I wouldn't be where I am right now in my life and career if I weren't delusional. To think that I can make a song about a man lusting God through another man in a world where it's still legal in many places to be prosecuted and actually killed for being who you are, being gay. It's delusional to think that that song could be the number one song in the world. And I just want to say, in general, it's okay to be delusional when you're chasing your dreams. All right. So that was a little bit of a recap from the iHeartRadio Music Awards yesterday. I wish I'd have known about it.

I'd have watched. Well, you know, you can go back now. I'm sure it's available to stream. You already told us the winners. So you might want to see the performances. Yeah. I thought I'd see on Shade Room. Alright, now the Oscars

have announced that Beyonce will be performing King Richard's song Be Alive at the 2022 Academy Awards. That all goes down this Sunday, so you know when that's happening. Previously, she had talked about wanting to actually perform that song live

pre-taped from the tennis courts where Venus and Serena used to train in Compton. So we're not sure if that's going to be happening or if she's going to do it from the theater. So I guess we'll find out about that soon enough. I'm not watching that either. Text me when Beyonce performs and text me when the best supporting actress category comes up because I want to see if Will Smith wins, which I think he up. Because I want to see if Will Smith wins. Which I think he will. And I want to see if Ajene wins.

So we're supposed to all keep you updated? I'm not going to watch. I'm not talking to you. But you guys watch and text him. Somebody will. Guaranteed. All right. Now, Jay Prince has called out the Grammys and suggested that Kanye, Drake, and more artists go up against the awards show and do their own rival concert.

He said, I've been watching the Grammys control and dictate our culture to their benefit up close and personal for the past 30 years that I've been in the music business. And all the artists, managers, and execs would do is complain but never have the nuts to come together to do anything about it. Even though the latest episode deals with Trevor Noah and the canceling of Kanye West, this racist act is so much bigger than them. Let's just start

with the mindset of the words counsel and cancel where the Grammys is concerned to compare them to rehab and legal slavery where the penitentiary is concerned. So he goes on to say that he thinks that people should basically boycott the Grammys. And he

said hip-hop versus the Grammys. And he said, hip-hop versus the Grammys. He added Drake, Kanye, The Weeknd, Nicki. The powers that be will be mad at me about this one, but F them. I love the culture. The seed is planted. Let's water it. I respect the OGJ Prince,

but I just would like to know, how does that advance the black community as a whole for people to boycott the Grammys? There's so many other things that we can mobilize and galvanize people for. Like there's a lot of pressing issues that black people have, black people are facing in America right now. I mean, you can mobilize and galvanize people for the George Floyd Policing Act,

the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Let's mobilize to decriminalize and legalize weed on a federal level. Like what does boycotting the Grammys do for the average black person in America? Well, Damon Dash also is not here for the Grammys, taking Kanye West from its performance lineup. And he was talking to TMZ and he said, we make our own Grammys. Yeah, and it's crazy when I even see people like, they'd be so happy about stuff like this.

But it's just like, if people boycott the Grammys, that does nothing for your life. That's not going to make your gas prices lower. That's not going to make inflation go down. Like, that does nothing for your everyday life. Artists boycotting the Grammys. Just a quick question. Kanye and Drake came together to do that show in LA for Larry Hoover. Yes.

Whatever happened? I don't know. I haven't heard. I haven't even heard the brother's name since. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Winston.

Just a question. I mean, there's a lot of things that we can mobilize and galvanize for, like a lot of pressing issues. I don't think the Grammys is one of them at all. I could give a damn about the Grammys. I mean, this has been going on forever, though, with people talking about the Grammys. The Grammys is a live, they do live performance and live shows, right? So if Kanye's performing live and they feel like something is not right or he might say something,

wouldn't it be smart to possibly pull him off just in case? And you know what? This would have never happened to Kanye if the OGs around Kanye would have pulled Kanye's coattail and told Kanye to relax a long time ago. You could be mad at the Grammys on a lot of things, but the fact that they said, I'm going to pull him because he's performing live and we just don't know? I don't understand why the OGs around Kanye

got Kanye out here jeopardizing his business. That's what Kanye's essentially doing. He's jeopardizing his business. Making threats online, telling people I can afford to hurt you.

To get you touched. Hey, come on, man. Where do you live? The OG's supposed to pull up on him. His OG's around him supposed to say, yo, knock that off.

And then these consequences wouldn't be happening then. All right. Well, that is your rumor report, guys. All right. Front page news. That's what we're talking about. Well, let's talk about the Ketanji Brown-Jackson confirmation hearing. Judge Ketanji Brown-Jackson's first full day of questioning was yesterday.

And we'll have some of those highlights for you. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. It's NFT Tuesday.

And iHeart Radio Station. All right. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. All right. Where we starting, Yeezy?

Well, let's talk about Judge Katonji Brown-Jackson and her first full day of questioning. And this is all for her joining the Supreme Court. She will be the first black woman in that position. The first black woman to sit on the Supreme Court. So this is monumental. Now, she was questioned about a lot of different things. Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin questioned her about packing the court. And here was her response.

Can we agree that the calls to pack the court delegit packing the court and here was her response. Can we agree that the calls to pack the court de-legitimize the court? Respectfully, Senator, I'm not in a position to give my opinion on issues that are policy issues concerning the court and not something that a judge would have to consider or should consider in my view. I don't understand why you won't weigh in on this issue. I feel so strongly about ensuring that judges remain out of political debates. They should absolutely pack the court. It's the 6-3 conservative majority in the Supreme Court right now. I told you all this already.

Yes, pack the court and add four black women. Add four people who will shift the balance of power in the Supreme Court right now. I told you all this already. Yes, pack the court and add four black women. Add four people who will shift the balance of power in the Supreme Court right now. Yes. Well, that was definitely a trick question, trying to set a trap for her. I don't know if she should have said that right now. I mean, it wasn't her place. She had no business answering it. That's not her wheelhouse.

That's why she answered it the way she should have. But they should pack the court is what I'm saying. I said that yesterday. All right. Now, Katonji also was questioned about critical race theory by Senator Ted Cruz. Another book that is on the summer reading for third through fifth grade is a book called Stamp for Kids, again by Ibram Kendi. Now, what this book argues for is the exact opposite of what Dr. King spoke about on the floor of the Lincoln Memorial. And are you comfortable with these ideas being taught to children

as young as four in respect to the first book, as young as eight and nine in respect to the second book? Senator, I have not reviewed any of those books, any of those ideas. They don't come up in my work as a judge, which I'm respectfully here to address. Absolutely. She should just say, that ain't my bag. That ain't my bag.

That poor woman is at the end door, which seems like a 48-hour job interview. Like, you can have that job. That's what it is. That's pretty much what it is. If it wasn't for the Supreme Court seat, Lord have mercy, 48 hours, man? Well, let's skip ahead to something that people were talking about, and that is her record on child porn cases. Keep in mind, this was a 12-hour-plus session that she went through yesterday.

And so what they're saying, some of the most contentious allegations against her is that she's soft on child porn offenders. And she says nothing could be further from the truth. Here is what she had to say in response to that. It is important to me to make sure that the children's perspective are represented in my sentencings. For every defendant who comes before me and who suggests, as they often do, these crimes don't really matter. I tell them about the adults who were former child sex abuse victims who tell me that they will never have a normal adult relationship because of this abuse. And then I impose a significant sentence and all of the additional restraints that are available in the

law. And they were saying at the recommended time that the prosecutors gave her, she was way less at that time. For about a third of the cases. I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary. Break down what she just said to me. Well, she's saying that as a judge, she would take into account all the different aspects, like the adults who did these things and how they were also

victims of cases. So that's how she took into account everything. So she had empathy. Yeah, she had empathy. She would take people's laptops away, not allowing people to be on laptops and computers again. If they had mental problems, if they were assaulted by an adult when they were a child. So she took all that into play when she made those decisions.

Right, so sometimes her sentencing did not fall within the guidelines. It would be below those guidelines. I mean, to that point, I wonder do those people even need sentencing? Should they go to some type of counseling? Should they go to some type of rehab? I'm not sure what time she gave him. If she gave him rehab, if it was some time served, if it was mental therapy, I'm not sure. And it's a lot of different cases we're talking about.

But she did say that guidelines are just a starting point for judges. Correct. And so that's what you look at and you have to look at all the different factors when you determine these types of cases based on a number of different considerations. So that's what she was saying. Alright, well that is

your Front Page News. Alright, now when we come back, Lotto, Big Lotto will be joining us. Big Lotto! Her album comes out this Friday, 777. Let's get lucky and hit that 777. We'll talk to her next. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

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

gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out

But one of our listeners called in and I want to get your advice. Here was her question. I started talking to a new guy and like everything was good, but like he kind of has like some female tendencies that I don't like. They kind of make me like cringe a little bit.

What do you mean by that? What do you mean by female tendencies? So, like, sometimes he'll sing songs that are, like, a little bit too feminine, like songs that he shouldn't be singing. Like what songs? What songs are feminine songs? Big Energy by Big Lotto. Like,

I don't feel like a man should be singing those songs. I ain't gonna lie, those I love both. Lotto was the number one record, man. I love both those songs, but, okay. was The number one record man I love both those songs But okay As a female As a female Yes I love both those songs

And I would sing them But I don't think a man Should be singing About those songs What do you say Lotto I don't agree with that Can you say Big big energy

Or as a guy You can't sing that song I think you can First of all I try at least Maybe not every song But I try to make The most unisex music

I think like out of a lot of female rappers I think I'm the one that makes music for both genders like my uncles

my cousins my man his friends like they be bumping my jaw now as a man of average penis size I was highly offended by your song

I told you but if you listen to the song it's not about what's in your pants though it's not cause I got big he says but go ahead continue on Char it's not about what's in your pants though. It's not. Because I got big energy. But go ahead, continue on Charlamagne. Shut up, what's up with you, man? She already from Atlanta, okay?

Relax, bro. It's not a like gender thing or it's not literally what's in your pants though. Although that energy does transfer over. I mean, the confidence that you have. Yeah, but that's where the saying come from because it come from like, you know how they say, men that know they got a lot of, you know,

stain in their hands, they be walking around like they don't stain. I just feel like all penis sizes matter. You know what I mean? Yeah. He's very hurt. He cried. It's not about that.

Shut up, man. He did. It's not about that. We're going to do E this morning, so we'll be all right. Have you ever been wrong About somebody's energy though? Goodness gracious Like somebody walk in

And they got that BDE But then you know They was just Have I ever been wrong? I don't think I ever been wrong I really can smell that From a mile away God damn

What you smell? I'm like that No Don't have mercy Mariah Carey She cleared the sample No problems? Tom Tom Club

Cleared the sample Yeah that's the original. That's the original. Genius of Love, right? Is that what it is? Yeah, Genius of Love. What do you call big? Is it like, does it hang like your ponytail?

Like, what is big? I knew you were just going to give me this problem. I'm just asking. I just want to know. He's really hurt by it. Big what? Big energy, big lotto. Big energy.

Big D, big D. Well, let me bring it down before you answer it. His wife. Oh, don't do that. What are you talking about? His wife cheated on him with a guy with a bigger penis. His wife cheated with Maxwell. That's what it is. His wife cheated with Maxwell.

That is not true. I don't want to know how to cheat. Exactly. I don't want to know how to cheat. That was years ago. We've been together for a long time. It's not about what's in your pants. I don't care who cheated on who. Listen, all I know is, Lado, can we both agree that there is some small energy in this room from the two of them this morning?

No, I'm not going to do them like that. No. Because this is feeling insecure. It's giving. Insecure. We're asking questions. Why can't we ask questions? I'm just asking questions. Anyways, back to the Kali, you know what I'm saying.

She, I don't agree with Shari. I think that men can listen to them songs. But not listen, sing them. Like, yes they can. I agree. Yes they can. Because if not, then I'm, then y'all exiting me out of 50% of

the market. That's right. You can't do me like that, girl. I'm trying to get this money. And technically, the song is about men. Yeah. Yeah. And that's why I added those things in the beginning where I said, hey, daddy, when you

going to stop playing? I wanted it to be, I didn't want it to just be like, stepping on ass. I wanted it to be like, you don't want to hurt nobody's family. He says that to me every morning Yo, hey daddy when you gonna stop playing? This guy is crazy Why the album title 777 and I see you got it added on you next to the union Yeah, I've been had this tatted on me for like this is one of my first tattoos

So seven always being like my favorite number is God's number Everyone who I love favorite number seven like my grandma my daddy my favorite number. It's God's number. God's number. Everyone who I love favorite number is seven. Like my grandma, my daddy, everybody favorite number is seven. Triple, you know, overcome 666. And baby, I'm God's child, baby. I'm God's favorite, matter of fact. So, you know, I don't play by dad. But when I changed my name to Lotto in reference to the lottery, like Casino, Jackpot, whatever,

it became a part of my brand then. But it just kind of just fell in place because it was already something that meant a lot to me anyway. And then, you know, the album and stuff, I just wanted to, like, with the previous name, just harboring that negative energy and stuff, I just wanted to, like, turn over a new leaf, like new chapter, new era,

and I think it's been manifesting, like, good things. I like that, especially the whole 666 thing. It's like, yo, why not flip that? Let's do God, 777. I like that. Especially the whole 666 thing. It's like, yo, why not flip that? Let's do God. 777. I like that. I be seeing people do that. I be like, what the f*** wrong with y'all? We don't do that. Who was your faith growing up? Christianity.

My grandma was like, you ain't touching that food unless you say grace. Another big conversation is who's from Atlanta? Clearly not me. Why is this such a big conversation about who's from Atlanta, who's not from Atlanta, who's on the outskirts of Atlanta, who's in Atlanta? I don't think it's just Atlanta, though.

Like, Amaretta was really just saying, like, because so many other people from different cities was relating to it, too. She was just speaking from Atlanta. Like, they'd be like, oh, if you're not from the actual city, don't claim the actual city, but baby, I'm, one thing about it,

I'ma let you know I'm from Cleco, I'ma let you know that, but to the masses, to the world, y'all probably never even heard of Cleco, so, to the world, I'm from Atlanta.

Yeah, it's really people not from there, that just be like, oh yeah, she from Atlanta, and y'all represent Atlanta too, like, the culture of it,

and you got on the remix. Yeah, because I, I, I f*** with Amaretta. She hard. She could rap and I understood what she was saying. It wasn't no shade. People were

trying to flip it into this thing like, oh she's shading you what you gonna do? I ain't taking that shade. Literally she said what she said. It's not a lie. Isn't it crazy that people could have started a beef? You know how fans want to jump in and be like, oh, she talking crazy about you.

Imagine if you would have fed into that and been like, man. I could have. I could have for sure. They do that a lot, especially with female rappers. They can't wait to pin y'all against each other. And that's why I always say nine times out of ten when the girls is beefing or they got an issue, underlying issue, it don't be them. We got so much stuff to relate to in real life.

We got so many stories that we can tell each other and be like, girl, you going through that? I'm going through that too. Like, it be the blogs and the fans and stuff. And it's really not fair to us because in real life, we will probably get along. Does online harassment ever, like, impact your mental health and your emotional well-being?

Yes. Yeah. Like, I'm going through that right now. Like, trying to find me time and, like, self-care. harassment ever like impact your mental health and your emotional well-being yes yeah like i'm going through that right now like trying to find me time and like self-care like make sure my mental is straight because when it's i always say when it when it starts to not be fun no more i'm gonna take a break and recollect but i'm on tour and stuff so it's like is it fun now it's fun it's fun like i'm i'm not gonna let that distract me and take away. You know my happiness this this my second project with RCA It's my first tour and I'm selling out like crazy like I want to enjoy it

It's funny until you get online I got saw something with you they was messing with you about having a small stage which wasn't a small stage It's 3,000 people the first of all in Santa Cruz First of all selling out a thousand people thousand people at Santa Cruz is not coming out to see new artists period so I'm gonna pop it that's why I'm still trying to find you know the times where it's appropriate I like how the Clayton County came out but then you remember the media training Why does it matter because you've been on stages that have 40, 50, 60,000 festivals and then a small market doesn't matter I think what irritates me is

because there be so many people that's not in the industry speaking on stuff that have to do with the industry. Like, y'all don't have no clue of what's going on. Y'all be impressed by these big old stages. When I post Rolling Loud or I post Made in America, y'all be like, oh my God, you made it, you made it. Them people is here to see a hundred other people.

They is not here just to see me. Them people in that room screaming word for word songs that i dropped five years ago so that hit different all right we got more with big lotto when we come back don't move it's the breakfast club good morning I could be a fantasy. I could tell you got big, big energy. It ain't too many of them that can handle me, but I might let you try it off the Hennessy. Make them sing to this thing like a melody.

Yeah. Yeah. But you know what?

I think because I did the rap game so long ago, I been got that drag on Twitter and stuff. And that's not new to me. It's not new to me. So it's like, I still got to figure out when it's not appropriate to clap back. Because y'all got to label out offering me media training and stuff now. When you was on Big Boy, and you talked about working on the album and having a problem clearing. Yeah.

And then everybody looked at your track list and tried to see what artist that was. It's like the hip hop who done it at this point. And then Kodak posted today. He said, that mulatto girl is not talking about me, homie. I just sing that before I walk not. He said, that mulatto girl is not talking about me, homie. I just seen that before I walked in. My intentions was not to, like, make this a whole thing. I just was looking at it as, like, I'm a new female rapper in the game. I wish somebody could have gave me some insight about how this stuff really go.

Like, you hear, like, oh, female rappers have it harder. But I really wanted to give, like, a little insight as to, like, what specifically makes it harder for a female rapper I didn't want it to like distract from the music or anything so like I kind of wish in a way I didn't say that how did that person react because I'm sure at that point it's like well I don't want to be on the album because not everybody gonna be looking at me I haven't heard from them yeah well you know what if you did that you should be ashamed and not want to you know, like, what are you supposed to do? If a guy did that to you,

he should really just shut up. Or even apologize. Yeah, or apologize. That would mean. Because I don't, I mean, I'm not here to raise nobody. I'm just speaking on, like, what I go through. You know, and I think I'm allowed to do that to a certain extent.

Social media is trying to turn it into this thing where it's like, oh, I'm trying to clout Chase or, like, silence my experiences. I think you live in your truth. Yeah. You know, and if your intentions are to help the next person coming behind you, like, why not? Because these are things that we've always heard about, right? But you don't ever know specifically what, like, people always say,

oh, it's harder for a female rapper, it's harder for a female rapper, but specifically, what do we be dealing with that people don't know? That's right. You know what I'm saying? And it's not even just other artists. It'd be managers, producers.

Oh, that's why I was really shocked by that because I'm like, oh, that's what got y'all shook? Oh, y'all would, that was just, yeah. How does that make you, like, if you want to do a record with somebody, or you want to collaborate, now do you say, well, I'm going to get my manager to reach out because I don't want that? Oh, that's what it always be, though.

Like, they even switched it like that. They like, oh, well, why would you even reach out to that person? I don't even do that. I don't do business like that. It's always through management. It shouldn't have to be like that, though. If you feel the artist would be like, I think he sounds dope on this record, you should be able to be like, yo, bro, I think we should collab.

And it shouldn't be a problem, you know? It shouldn't. But her reality is? Reality is it most likely will be. Or they will, like, you know, do something that offends you or try to cross the boundary or whatever. So I always like, especially with male rappers. Was it Kodak?

I don't want to say who it was. Yeah. I just feel like, because it's going to distract from the music, and my intention is not to get anyone dragged or anything. I just wanted to speak from, like, what do I deal with? I don't specifically want someone to, you know, get dragged or that cancel culture shit is a mother. Did other female artists, other female rappers hit you up after that

to be like, thank you, girl, for speaking up? Yeah, they did, and I thought that was real dope. And hopefully, without a mess in the drama, hopefully more people can feel comfortable to speak up. So it's been like that from day one? Like, even when you were just an aspiring rapper trying to get on, it's been like that?

Mm-hmm. What does your man have to say about all this? He tried to stay out of the way. I try to keep him out of the way too because I don't want him to have any pressure or feel like he got to defend me like I'm straight.

Because that had to be hard for him to hear too. Especially when you tell him. I know he like, I want to Yeah, for sure. But I think when you dating a female rapper, you just got to know some stuff just going to come with it. What did he hear on the big boy interview? No, I tell him everything. He don't

want to go step to the guy? Let me go talk to him. I don't know what he want to do. Yeah. It's interesting though, because I can feel your energy come down as soon as you start talking about it. Yeah, because I just, it just been like too much. It been too much. that's why i'm just

ready for the album to come out the remix the remix got cleared like just in time like that that was a whole nother thing that was just on my mental like when i tell you i've been stressed out with a k stress stressed stress but it's okay because god got me and i really feel like everything i'm going through right now is just prepping me for what's to come what perception did you have with the industry

that once you got in you realized it was all wrong yeah I think I was rapping at 8 years old I did the rap game at 16

so I thought everything was peaches and cream like oh I'm like oh I just get my makeup done and shoot videos and then I be

number one on billboard that's how it go that's what I thought you know as a kid coming into it. But I think it made me, like, grow up faster because I had to see, you know, as a kid, like, dang, this stuff not sweet. Like, people, they don't give a f***. Damn, what was your first, like, rude awakening?

My first rude awakening? I don't even remember my first. Was it before the rap game or after that or during probably probably like during after the rap game stuff you regret that at all because you had to prove so much that you wasn't a reality yeah you know i mean now that i got through it no but because it was a lot to get through it really was now that i got through it, no. But going, like, you know, the ups and downs of, like, trying to get away from that image that I was first introduced to the world as, and, like, the music changing and just growing up in general, like, that, it did make me be like, man, I wish I never did this shit.

But now I'm grateful because it just shows people, like, this ain't overnight. People been seeing me. You know, I've been working, like. this but now I'm grateful because it just shows people like this ain't overnight people been seeing me you know I've been working like so it's cool now that I've overcame it and it's like oh I see her come up I respect it now you also have this song trust no bitch on the album yeah do you feel like being in a position that you're in people do try to come at you because you know how you try to go for somebody who's winning to get attention. Yeah. Yeah, I really think that. And I just, that's not going to stop. The only thing that I can control is my response to it.

So I'm just trying to learn how to, like, they going to gun for you. They going to try to provoke you. And if you let them, then they going to keep doing it. I just got to go Beyonce on these bitches. You go silent. It's hard, though, because your era grew up on that. Yeah. And then I'm still me.

Like, I look, like, it's hard to look at yourself from a third person point of view. So when the label be like, oh, you got this and this now. Like, yeah, but it's hard for me to look at myself like that. Like, if you disrespect me, I'm on your ass. It's hard for me not to be. I think I only find it disrespectful when I actually know the person. People I don't know, it's like ghosts. It's like, hey, what am I going to do?

I wish I thought of it like that. One day I'm going to be like you. You can. One day. You got a chance to have a conversation with Halle Berry. Yeah. How was that? Halle Berry.

Halle Berry. She looks so good. First of all, she looks so good. I'm like, girl, I want to grow up and look like you. She looks so good. First of all, she looks so good. I'm like, girl, I want to grow up and look like you. She looks so good. Did you pick the question you asked or was it already set up? It was already set up. I probably shouldn't have said that, but it was. What was the nastiest or weirdest sexual request the actress ever received?

I was, no, first of all, I really want to put emphasis, I'll probably get in trouble for this, but I want to put emphasis on that this question was pre-written because when I seen him, I said, that is disrespectful to ask Halle Berry. That is disrespectful. My grandma would slap me on the head.

So why you ain't listen to your grandma? But they was like that she said it's okay. Oh, got you. Okay. So when I seen her, I was like, I guess so. I'm like, y'all sure she said it's okay. So I'm like,'all sure She said it's okay So I'm like

Girl Did you see this question Oh you asked her beforehand Yeah I'm like Did you see this question Are you sure I was like I thought it was disrespectful

She was like No girl No girl So I'm like Okay What if they was punking you And then she was like What I can't believe

That would be That would be mean That would be mean That would be mean Don't set me up with Halle Alright we got more With Big Lotto When we come back Don't set me up with Halle. All right, we got more with Big Lotto. When we come back, don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Big Lotto. Her album comes out this Friday, 777. There's something about you that's very grounded.

Really? Yeah. What does that mean, grounded? Grounded. just a humility about you like you know and and i feel like you were that way before you got in the game so where do you where do you contribute that to probably what i was saying contribute or attribute i think it's some type of gym it's a beaut i think it goes back to what i was saying earlier like i'm really just grateful to be where i'm at i don't take it for granted because it didn't happen overnight.

And I really put in the work. And I've been told no so many times. I've dealt with so much stuff behind closed doors to get to where I'm at. So I just appreciate it. What did your people want you to do coming up? Like, your grandma, your mom. Like, what did they want you to do? It's so crazy because most people, like,'t support like an artistic job. Like they like,

oh, go to college, da-da-da, but my folks never did that. Your dad managed you, right? Yeah, my daddy managed me. My mama did my business management and everybody, it was just like a family effort thing. Like my daddy used to pay for me to be on shows. Like, bro, can she hit the stage? I get $200 right now.

Like they supported me 100%. That's probably what attributes to let him know. How does he feel now though? He's still always in protecting mode. When he hears something, I'm sure he's ready to go get a baseball bat or hammer and go up somebody's head.

Yeah, he don't play by me for sure. He don't play by me for sure, but I think for the most part, he's just happy to see me, you know, doing what we pray for and what we prepare for for so long. You a daddy's girl? I don't know, because when I was younger, I used to be a daddy's girl. But then, you know, when I'm getting into like my grown woman, when I think I'm a grown woman, like 16, I became more of a mama's girl. How'd your dad deal with that? Because you were drag racing with him. You was his little time boy. Yeah, I know. Then all of a sudden how'd your dad deal with that because you were drag racing

with him you was his little yeah i know i really was i know put them sneakers back on it'd be it still be i'm not even gonna act like we just got it down pat we still be like back and forth like we get on each other head we have our time where we're not with each other because it's a lot to have you know your parent involved in your business especially when they seeing you popping it like a willy it get a little weird but we figuring it out and i know he got my best interest at heart regardless and he know i love him to death and i like when you talk your on those songs though yeah i mean it's fun but i do be thinking like i wonder what i wonder what everybody gotta say everybody be saying saying that. I think we just figuring it out as we go.

Like, how do you F like a thug? What? A song on the album. When you F him like a thug. What your dad say about that song? He ain't heard that song. He ain't heard that one. You can't play all the stuff.

You just let them just read the track list and they know which one's the skill. Lord have mercy. How do you do that? Okay. F him like a thug. play all the stuff and you just let them just read the track list and they know which one is the skill. How do you do that? Okay, if I'm like a thug, it's just like taking authority. It's just me not playing the lay back role. It's just me getting on top. Yeah.

Slap him. Maybe. I think fathers, we just protective and it's anxiety you have you have a lot of anxiety when you have children period but when you have daughters you know what i'm saying so you just you're you're overly protective and i guess i can see what that could come off as like give me some space pops yeah and that's what it was a lot of that in like in the beginning stages like when i'm fresh off the rap game and I'm like getting my first car my first apartment I remember being like okay I want to customize music now and he was like no I was probably 17 I get it I

want I want trying to talk about popping in like a really I was just trying to be like man but he's like you know and i loved when i saw you on andrew martinez and what you said about uh your haters and you was like if they if they hating on me yeah you just might as well figure out a way to be a fan yeah because baby i'm gonna try to prove you wrong they always say that about me like you know what's so crazy big energy it debuted on a bubbling under um on billboard and i was like okay babe everybody's making fun of me they're like oh yeah you thought this was gonna go up it's bubbling under okay now i'm number 14. yeah so that's what your dad need to do your dad need to say i bet you can't stop rapping about sex. And then that'll make you stop.

I'm crying. No, then I'm gonna play him another song where I'm not. Were you the little kid that used to make come rap at holidays? Like when all the family was around, Lotto, come do that little rap in that dance. No, they would make me dance. Okay. Which is so crazy because I swear up and down I can't dance no more.

I don't know what, it left my body, but I used to think I was going to be a background dancer. Really? I was reading one be a background dancer. Really? I was reading one of my journals from elementary the other day and they was like, what do you want to be

when you grow up? And I said I was going to be Beyonce's backup dancer. I swear to God. I swear to God. Not a bad goal, but there's bigger goals.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, life is crazy. Man, I want to talk about some of these lyrics and songs, but I'm going to save it for lip service or something. Oh, s***.. Yeah, life is crazy. Man, I want to talk about some of these lyrics and songs, but I'm going to save it for lip service or something. Oh, shit. I'm scared of lip service.

Yo! Let's get to the rumors, let's talk Colin Kaepernick. She's spilling the tea! This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So David Robinson, who is a famous football trainer, he works with Colin Kaepernick, said that multiple NFL teams have contacted him to ask about Colin Kaepernick

after he recently had a workout with him. And here is what he had to say. Yeah, man, he has a very strong arm, very accurate. Mechanics are still good. I was very impressed with how well he took charge of the huddle and getting guys aligned and things of that nature. He definitely has the ability, you know, to play on somebody's roster,

like right now. A couple of guys that were in the session that were on the NFL team were saying that his arm is, you know, just the strongest guy that we got on our roster right now and can play. So, yeah, he look real good. Yeah, he hasn't lost a step at all. So at least five teams have inquired about him. I'll believe it when I see it.

What, did they inquire? If he makes it in the NFL. I don't see it, but I'll believe it when I see it. Alright, now Ciara has joined the cast of the Color Purple musical film and she'll play Nettie, the younger sister of Ceely, who's played by Fantasia. And so the younger version

is going to be played by Halle Bailey. It sounds good, right? Mm-hmm. I think... When do they start? So when do they start filming? Yeah.

I'm not sure when they start filming but it's produced by Steven Spielberg and Oprah. The cast is also featuring Taraji, Danielle Brooks, also David Allen Greer, Louis Goss Steven Spielberg and Oprah. The cast is also featuring Taraji, Danielle Brooks, also David Allen Greer, Louis Gossett Jr., and her. That's dope.

That's a dope cast. And depending on what age you are, you've been acting out scenes from The Color Purple your whole damn life. Okay? Yeah, so. But they are going to start filming sometime this month, they said, in Georgia.

Okay. All right, now, Captain America actor Anthony Mackie, he is, in Georgia. Okay. All right, now Captain America actor Anthony Mackie, he is purchasing 20 acres. He's going to build a production studio in New Orleans. That's dope. That's dope. Yeah, so he trained in acting at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts

and his decision to develop projects there is a really big win for the local economy and community. So, shout out to them. New Orleans is a great place to film. Dropping a clue bunch of Anthony Mackie. Why not? All right.

Now, Kid Cudi is going to be directing and starring in Netflix's Teddy, which is co-produced by Jay-Z. So he said, if I could sum up what the movie is about in one sentence, I say this. It says, if I took the song Pursuit of Happiness and wrote a movie movie about it i added a lot of my own personal struggles and experiences in it so this film is very close to my heart i know that deep down this movie will help people in the same ways my music has i'm continuing my mission so kid cuddy wrote that and he's also starring in it okay dropping the clues bombs for kid cuddy why not kid cud Cudi saved a lot of lives, man. Like, it's a whole generation of kids that actually worship Kid Cudi. And we'll say Kid Cudi's, you know, music

actually kept him alive. All right, now, Jeff Bezos' ex-wife, Mackenzie Scott, has made a donation to Habitat for Humanity International and 84 of its United States affiliates. It is the largest publicly disclosed donation from Mackenzie Scott since she pledged to give away the majority of her wealth. You know how much she's worth?

A lot. $48 billion. Oh my goodness. How much did she give away? $436 million. She got a long way to go. But that's just one donation to Habitat for Humanity. So this is over time. So yeah, I mean that's just one donation to Habitat for Humanity. So this is over time. So, yeah, I mean, that's a huge donation. And the CEO of Habitat for Humanity International said we could not be more excited to get this gift at a time when, in some ways, the state of housing affordability is the worst that it's been in modern times.

Her and Bill Gates' wife, they do a lot of philanthropy. Yeah, and they don't discuss most of it. So this is like her largest publicly disclosed donation. But there's a lot of things that she does give away. She actually gave away over $8 billion in the past two years. Who's the one that's always giving to HBCUs? It's one of them.

They're always giving a lot of money to HBCUs. Alright, so that is your rumor reports. Alright, thank you, Missy. Chalamet, who are you giving that down?

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country?

My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know,

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

That's March 23rd goes to Vivian De Quarez, a.k.a. Polka. I know I pronounced her name all wrong. I hope I got Polka right.

But she's a Brazilian singer. I never heard of her, but I am sending her healing energy this morning. This is a teachable moment. I'm sending her healing energy because she needs it. I want to tell you all something this morning, and I mean it from the bottom of my heart. Actually, I don't mean it from the bottom of my heart. I simply mean

it from my bottom. There is someone out there. There is someone out there right now who needs to hear the words that are about to come out of my mouth. There is someone somewhere right now who is going through what I am about to discuss. Maybe somebody in this room. Okay, they are holding something in that they want to get out to the world. And I need you to know, don't hold it in anymore.

Okay? I know it hurts. Okay? I know it hurts to let it go go but sometimes it hurts more to hold on and i am giving you permission this morning to let it go let it go let it go okay i know you can't hold it back anymore i don't care if you're in a car with people on public transportation with people under the covers with with your loved one in a room full of people, ma'am or sir or they, if you have to fart right now, do it, okay? Let it go, all right?

Airbrush your boxes. Let off a 21 anal salute. If folks next to you have to feel a little backdoor breeze, do it. They will live, but you possibly won't if you hold your farts in. That's what happened to Polka. Okay, that's why she's getting donkier day to day. She was sent to the hospital to be treated for trapped gas because she didn't want to fart in front of her boyfriend. All right?

Let me hear some fart sounds, Ray. Get me in the mood. I need something harder than that. I need something wet. Nah, that means you're trying. You're forcing it. I like the natural ones. They're like... go all right polka polka all right let their man go if you don't tell him you can't tell him to stop farting all right got it all all right all right polka what are you doing

baby girl okay you're not on farting terms with your boyfriend so you held them in how many of y'all out there are not on farting terms with your significant other so you hold them in and if you don't want to fart around them why didn't you just go to the bathroom poker i do it all the time why because i don't fart fart i don't hold my farts for nobody but also i don't fart in my clothes okay i don't fart in my clothes when i need to blow my big brown horn i go into the bathroom pull my pants down and i let that brown horn brass choir sang okay now poke is 27 years old and she shared her gas problems with her 15.7 million followers on instagram she wrote and i quote i woke up at 5 30 a.m with severe stomach pains and ended up in the hospital she then assured her followers she is all right.

And then she added, but that's it, guys. I'm now fine. Just an accumulation of trap farts. She then went on to encourage her followers to pass when freely. She said, and I quote, girls, don't be ashamed to fart in front of your guy because what's really embarrassing is not letting your guy sleep because you're in discomfort. Going to the hospital with your guy and the diagnosis being trap farts. End quote.

To be honest, I didn't know trap gas was a thing. But according to the New York Post, it occurs when methane does not move through one's intestines normally, causing sufferers sharp pain or discomfort in their abdomen. Give me a fart, Red. Wow. All right, Red. pain or discomfort in their abdomen give me a fart red wow all right red now i don't be on tiktok okay i do have a tiktok at c to god c-t-h-a-g-o-d but it's strictly for books i think book talk is an amazing hashtag and i love the fact that literacy and literature is being pushed so heavy with that hashtag drop on the clues bond for book talk damn it okay you it. Okay? You know, you walk in Barnes & Noble's now, you see a whole book talk section. So yes, when I do post TikTok videos,

it's about books. Okay? I love to read and I have a book imprint, Black Privileged Publishing with Simon & Schuster, so it makes sense. But there's a lot of other information on TikTok. For example, this doctor named Karen Rajan, who back in September warned people

about the dangers and health risks of holding in your farts. Listen to what she had to say. I'll tell you some important facts about farts. On average, people fart 14 times a day, the more the merrier. If someone tells you they don't fart, they're lying and you should disown them immediately or they've got a bowel obstruction, which is a medical emergency. Your average daily fart volume is enough to fill up a medium-sized balloon. Happy birthday.

The first fart of your day is usually the largest. 75% of farts are produced by bacteria in the large intestine. Digested food that isn't broken down is chewed up by bacteria that produce microscopic farts, and these microscopic farts accumulate and become one of your regular farts. 25% of farts is swallowed air that you don't burp and dissolve gases from the blood, making its way into your intestines. 99% of a fart is non-smelly gases, usually hydrogen, methane, and carbon dioxide. Hydrogen and methane are flammable, which is why you can light a fart on fire, not recommended. The 1% of farts that do stink are volatile sulfur compounds like hydrogen

sulfide. If you hold in a fart too long, it can be reabsorbed into your blood circulation and breathed out when you exhale. The noise of a fart is a combination of anal sphincter vibrations and the percussion of butt cheeks against each other. Fth-Belostian butthole tightness determined the sound. Anal-objural. First of all, I didn't misgender the man. His name is Karan, okay? Apologies, Karan. Didn't mean to reduce you to a messy white woman named Karen.

What was that term? Pressing the butt cheeks together for percussion? Yes. That was an amazing, amazing use of words. Drop on the clues bombs for Dr. Karan. Your parts can catch fire? I guess. All right.

That's not what I got from that. What I got from that is if you hold in a fart too long, it can be reabsorbed into your bloodstream and breathed out when you exhale. You know what that means? That means that the next time somebody tells you that your breath smells like doo-doo, it's because it really does smell like doo-doo. Let me hit smash gas, Red. All right, Red.

Clear it out. Clear the colon out, Red. There you go. There you go. Okay. Red recorded himself this morning just to play this. Yes. That sounded like a shark.

If somebody did that around you, you would say to them, bro, you might need to go to the doctor. Something's wrong. Actually, nothing is wrong. Everything is right. Okay? What's the moral of the story? You got to let your butt burn. Okay?

You got to let those flagrant fuzzies fly. When you are having rectal tremors, let that cornhole clap. Okay? rectal tremors, let that cornhole clap, okay? And if your health isn't reason enough to let your farts go, then just know you should fart nowadays because at the present moment, farting is the only gas we

can afford. Please give poker the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons. For now you are the donkey of the dayes. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. I'm a father.

We know. Nick, the camera guy, our digital guy, Nick, drop on the clues box for Nick. He just sprayed Febreze. That's if those farts were real. And we definitely know Amber's a farter. You smell something, right? No, I'm a fart. We know.

You feel like you smell something. I don't fart in my clothes. I'm a farter, too. I just don't fart in my clothes. I'm a farter. My wife taught me something, too. She taught you how to fart? No.

Well, yeah, she did. That's wild. She said if you're in bed, right, and you want to fart, but you don't make no noise, you just spread your cheek and it just... So that's why you just randomly do that sometimes? You don't need no excuse to play with your butt. If that's what you want to do, if you want to spread those cheeks with your own hands, do it, King.

Evan does that all the time in here. Now we know why. And you don't hear it. It's no... That makes sense, though, because the doctor said that the butt cheeks pressed together cause the percussion. So if you spread them. Yeah, okay. So if you're in bed with your boo, you don't want your boo to know you fart, and you just spread your cheeks.

Spread your own ass cheeks. Boy, y'all is some kinky. That's why y'all got six kinks. I only got four. Y'all is kinky. You in the bed spreading your own ass cheeks. Oh, my goodness. Gear getting you pregnant

well this is something new we learned today i just spread your cheeks for no reason thank you for that tip and even no doctor around you ain't getting no colonic no nothing you just you know how many people are trying this right now it works it works no colonoscopy happened you just in there spreading your cheeks and you got a fart but you don't want it to do it because you don't want to be in the bed. I better never hear you be uncomfortable about getting a colonoscopy. Okay? Hey, you know, it's crazy.

Envy does sit up here and randomly spread his cheeks. I did not know why he was doing that. Spread them. Oh, my goodness. He's searching you for contraband. You want to search him for contraband, Ray? No. All right.

Thank you for that donkey of the day. Up next. You didn't press the a contraband, Ray? No. Alright, thanks for that donkey of the day. Up next... You didn't press the cheeks. Spread the cheeks, boss. Up next, Ask Envy. If you have any questions about how to spread your cheeks. Ask Ye. 800-585-1051. Next time somebody fart around me in my head, I'm going to say that. I'm like, you know you can spread your cheeks.

And it wouldn't make that noise. Ask Ye. 800-585-1051 is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051 is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Come on. Need relationship advice? Need personal advice?

Just need real advice. Call up now for Ask Yee. Eat the bread. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this?

It's Tato from Columbus, Ohio. Hey, what's up, man? What's your question for Yee? Pretty much, my question is, I have an ex-fiance that we kind of have a long-distance relationship. I moved to California for a point of time and was faithful. She decided to talk

to someone else. My question is, is that right? Is it right that she cheated on you? I mean, I guess not really cheated on me because we weren't together, but I stayed faithful with the hopes of being together still. Well, first of all, if you guys weren't together,

she didn't have any obligation. There's no staying faithful to who if you're single? That's a decision that you made. Yeah, but it wasn't an agreement. She just decides when we're together and when we're

not. And then what, so what power do you have in this relationship? We share two kids together. Okay. It's not really power, but we, and then we're also high school sweethearts. If you're not happy with the arrangements and you're saying that she decides when you're together and you're not, you know, you don't have to be okay with that. Yeah, I understand.

You know, and if you guys weren't together, like you said, and she got in another relationship, she's not really wrong. To me, all in all, I want to be together with her. That's all I really wanted for this past 17 years is just us to be committed to each other. And that's not what she wants? Apparently not. Well, sir, I'm sorry to say it, but you have to accept that if one person doesn't

want to be with the other person it won't work that's true you know and taking her back every single time and she's doing whatever she wants to do and like you said dictating when you're together and when you're not that doesn't work for you that's not fair to you so in order for you to be able to be happy and move on with your life, you know, she probably looks at it like he'll always be there for me. Kind of. I think we have like a dependent relationship

at this point. Not to say I've been a peach the whole time. Like I've done my dirt and cheated and been through the whole line. It's been 17 years. But at the end of the day, I just want her. I don't want anybody else.

Right. But if she's not in agreement with that, you can't force somebody to be with you if that's not what they want. Well, she tells me she doesn't know. Right. So right now she doesn't know. So you can't act like you're in a...

I mean, look, if you choose not to be with anybody else because you know that's what you want and you're laser focused on that, that's a decision you made. So you can't be be with anybody else because you know that's what you want and you're laser focused on that, that's a decision you made. So you can't be upset with what decision she makes because you guys are not together. You have to accept that. I mean, I can accept that. So should I just like remain faithful in my mind like until she's ready?

That's up to you. She might never be ready, you know. And I feel like you're not ready to see anybody else. And you don't have to force yourself to see someone if that's not what you up to you. She might never be ready, you know, and I feel like you're not ready to see anybody else and you don't have to force yourself to see someone if that's not what you want to do. But eventually, if this is not what she wants, you are going to have to move on. It's not going to do you any good to sit around and hope that one day she wants to be with you if that's, you know, she's moved on and she's dating somebody else. So I want you to be able to live your life and enjoy yourself and not

set yourself up for disappointment either. That's true. I definitely have discussions with my therapist about such topics. And what does your therapist say? I need to start doing things for myself. Just a little more selfish. And you're not going to find

that right person if it's not her to make you happy. If you're so focused on that and you're not going to find that right person if it's not her to make you happy. If you're so focused on that and you're not open to actually allowing yourself to be happy. I have friends. They're female, but it's like platonic. That's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. Some of the best relationships start off as platonic friends.

Nice. Yeah, I mean, you answered a lot of my questions. I hope she's hearing this right now. And you know, look, this is not to say that one day it might not work out, but in the meantime, you have to grow as a person and I don't want you to be stuck waiting for something that may or may not

happen. So being selfish is probably a good thing right now then, huh? Enjoy yourself. I will. Okay. Good luck, bro. Ask Yee, 805-855-1051. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, call Yee now. It's the Breakfast Club.

Yo, me. Yeah, you. My bad. Yeah, it's John. What's up, Angelique? Good morning. What's up, man? What's your question for Yee?

Man, my question, like, I met my girl, like, probably about four months ago. And, like, she met me as a school teacher, you know, like, nothing crazy. But my background, I'm a committed felon. And so I was real with her about it. And now, like, she would get in the car, like, it would be a normal day. Four times out of the week, she would get in the car, no question. And then one random day, she's like, hey, is there a crazy amount of drugs in here? And I'm like, what the hell is she coming from?

Why did you have to do that? Okay okay so she thinks you still do illegal things yeah but you know I mean she ain't even meeting me on that she just know about it from like me telling her about it right did you have anything in the car nah besides me like that's crazy yeah I mean look you were honest with her you told her something she asked you a question. She does this all the time. Yeah, like, it'd be random. Like, she might go a week and no questions asked, nothing normal, nothing crazy.

And then out of the blue, just like, hey, have you been in a trap today? Like, what the heck? Like, where this coming from? Right. Well, you guys have only been together for four months, right? Yeah. So I feel like it's still a getting to know each other period,

but you should tell her, like, I don't do those things anymore. Why do you ask me these questions? Yeah, and I tell her that, and she met me, like, as a school teacher, so I don't even know where, like, she even come with it from, but it's wild. How does it make you feel when she does that? Man, I feel like she looking down almost, because she's an attorney and she came from a different background from me. Right.

Well, you should tell her that. You should say, you know, it doesn't make me feel good when you ask me questions like that. It actually makes me feel like you're looking down on me. Yeah, yeah, I do that. I do it. You got to express yourself,

especially it's the beginning of a relationship. You guys are getting to know each other. And so this is the time for you to really establish those things and express yourself to her. You know what else you could do? Get in the car with her and be like, yo,

you don't have no drugs in here, do you? Yeah, she'd like to. Yeah. But you should be able to tell her that honestly. And you just tell her how it makes you feel so she can be aware of it. Michelle,

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. I wish there were behind-the-scenes cameras here at The Breakfast Club. Why? Just a second ago. Charlamagne, you want to tell the people what you did on the floor out here? I don't know what you're talking about.

Mm-hmm. I missed it, too. I just hear a lie coming. That's all I know. You hear a lie coming? Okay. Well, good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip.

With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, one woman's dad is in jail with R. Kelly, and she actually had R. Kelly sing to her over the phone. I guess her dad called her from prison, and R. Kelly was there, and he did do it, but he didn't seem like he was excited about it.

I wanted to ask you something. Can you sing a song for me? Love Letter? Did you get my call? Did you get my call? like he was excited about it i wanted to ask you something can you sing a song for me love letter did you get my call thank you man after singing y'all edited out the best part. Yeah, they edited out the long sigh. You can tell he was exhausted. He probably gets asked to sing a million times a day.

I'm sure he does that a lot. He better for survival. They're like, yo, Kels, come over here. Lord have mercy. He was like. Would you? All right. Now, Miley Cyrus is safe after her plane made an emergency landing. It was struck by lightning.

Can you imagine? No. She announced that it was caught in an unexpected storm. She said to my fans and everyone worried after hearing about my flight to Asuncion, our plane was caught in a major unexpected storm and struck by lightning. My crew, band, friends, and family who were were all traveling with me, are safe after an emergency landing. But she was not able to fly into Paraguay, so she said, I love you. That's how she concluded the message after that.

Can you imagine? No, that would scare the doo-doo out of me. You just go to sleep. And what would you do? Would you spread your cheeks? Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. Would you spread your cheeks right before the doo-doo came out? Would you spread your cheeks on the plane in front of everybody huh and who even

says that would scare the doodoo out of him i would say ish but you can't curse you could say something else you could have just said i'll be scared all right now that's a bullies no i'm just saying you're just weird all right justin bieber has dropped a defamation lawsuit against sexual assault accusers there were two women whoamation lawsuit against sexual assault accusers. There were two women who accused him of sexual assault nearly two years ago. And in March 2020, one woman, Danielle, went on Twitter to claim that Justin Bieber had sexually assaulted her in an Austin hotel room after a performance at South by Southwest. It's that those tweets have since been deleted. She said that the attack took place in March of 2014.

Now, Justin Bieber and his legal team argued that the artist wasn't even at the location on the day of the alleged assault and was instead at a rental property with his then girlfriend, Selena Gomez. He posted the pics I showed of me and Selena March 9th in Austin to make it clear that we were together that night and went from the venue to our Airbnb and never went to the Four Seasons. This is our Airbnb receipt where we crashed with our friends. And then somebody else posted similar accusations via Twitter after that. She said that he had assaulted her in March 2015 in a New York City hotel. Again, Justin Bieber's attorneys insisted that he wasn't at the hotel at the time of the alleged attack. He was at a Met Gala after party and his lawyers claimed he was at the event until 4 a.m. in the morning and even offered photo evidence to support his alibi. He did file defamation suits that same month,

and he sought $20 million in damages. He said the claims were outrageous and fabricated lies, but now he has dismissed the complaints against them. So not sure why, but he did. Did those two women ever really exist? Because it was random Twitter pages who posted those tweets. And didn't he have Twitter tied up in that lawsuit as well? Yeah, so one woman was identified as Jane Doe

and Danielle in court documents with her name. And the other woman was listed as Khadijah Digibrain. But, you know, you don't have to say your name in these court documents. Yeah, but I thought he actually had Twitter tied up in the lawsuit as well, just for having somebody be able to post those random accusations. Right, and then he was suing them for $20 million

because they did actually, you know, go to court. But I'm not sure what they decided or if he just decided to just drop it after all of this. So that's Justin Bieber. All right, now there's a petition calling for Kanye's removal from Coachella, and that has gotten over 30,000 signatures. So I'm not sure if that's going to actually happen. But Tory Lanez has launched a petition, by the way, now,

in response to all of that, to keep our black men on Coachella and other festivals. So recently we told you about him tweeting out protect black men and all of that. So now he has his own petition to make sure that black men can stay on Coachella and all other festivals

as well. He said, I just made this because someone has to. I'm pretty sure Kanye won't be doing Coachella. Probably because he'll pull out. I think he's somewhere seeking healing right now. All right. Now, Vice President Kamala Harris, there is a book that's coming out and it's called This Will Not Pass. Trump, Biden and the Battle for America's Future.

And there's some excerpts that people have been putting out right now of this book. It's coming out in May, but basically they're giving some inside information of what's going on in the White House. One of the excerpts talks about how Vice President Kamala Harris felt slighted by White House aides not standing when she entered into her room and that she took that as a sign of disrespect. And so she also, according to this book, worried that Biden's staff looked down on her and she fixated on real and perceived snubs in ways that the West Wing found to be tedious. And in response to that, though,

people have said that are on the staff that there is a deep respect for Kamala Harris in the White House. And there's other things that are in this book. According to this book, Jill Biden had issues and did not want Biden to pick Kamala Harris as his running mate because she criticized him and attacked him so much. But according to Jill Biden's spokesperson, they said there are millions of people in the United States.

Why? According to Jill Biden's spokesperson, there's going to be a lot of stories coming out and a lot of people saying things about what happened in the White House. And they're not going to respond to all of those things. But I understand that one. Yeah. You attack me the whole trail and then I pick you. I mean, I get that. Yeah.

So the first lady and her team do not plan to comment on any of those stories. But they're saying there's going to be some juicy excerpts coming out about this book and a lot of different things like her impossible portfolio, including border security, all other issues that she had. And some people are saying that she had fallen short of sky-high expectations. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. All right.
