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.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.
We need help!
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 shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the
power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.
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.
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 their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts
that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or show you love to hate. From the East to the West Coast. DJ Envy.
Angela Yee.
Charlamagne Tha God.
The realest show on the planet.
This is why I respect this show, because this is a voice to society.
Change in the game.
You guys are the coveted morning show, which are earning it.
Impact in the culture.
They wake up in the morning and they want to hear that breakfast show.
The world's most dangerous morning show.
We in the mother, we in the house.
Good morning, USA.
Hey, good morning, fam.
Hey, what's up?
Yee, it's Thursday.
What's poppingpin', Ye?
Nothing.
I'm still out here in Houston.
I actually had an event yesterday at TSU, Own Every Piece.
And it was really fun.
It was a conversation about how you use your birth control and, you know, just different things that you can do, different myths there are about different types of birth control and all of that.
So it was a good conversation.
It was a packed house.
So I appreciate everybody for coming out for that.
Shout out to Kim as well, who moderated the conversation.
Okay, well let's do this again. Charlamagne's here.
Let's start from the beginning one more time. People like their yo-yos. Here we go.
Good morning, USA! Peace to the planet. It's Thursday. I don't know why we just don't record the yo-yo-yos and play them.
Because I'm going to really start honoring my contract.
People like natural, like my hair.
They like natural.
They like natural like my hair. Why would you even say something like that early in the morning?
Everybody and their mother knows that's GMO on your head.
It's not GMO.
It's not hair plug.
So now you're going to tell us the Popeye's chicken sandwich is actually really chicken.
I don't know about Popeye's.
That's the next thing you're going to tell us?
All I know about is DJ Envy's head, Rashawn Casey's head.
I can't tell.
That's her eyes.
Thou who protest, thou who protest that much is hiding something.
Nobody even asked you about your head.
That was totally unprompted this morning.
Because I knew you were about to go.
I wasn't about to say anything.
Yes, you was.
No, I wasn't.
Yes.
You know your hair looks stupid.
No, it does not.
You did something to it yesterday. You got a cut or something. I got a haircut. Look at that. Exactly. See when you go. I wasn't about to say anything. Yes, you was. No, I wasn't. Yes. You know your hair looks stupid. No, it does not. You did something to it yesterday.
You got a cut or something.
I got a haircut.
Look at that.
I got a haircut.
I thought you were growing your hair out.
When you go to get your plugs adjusted and they look so obvious.
It's not.
He had to say something about it.
It's not.
I love my hair.
You should.
It's yours.
Your girls love their weave.
It's funny.
Girls love their wigs.
Why can't you love yours?
I was in a barbershop yesterday.
I was about to cut it.
I was like, I can't let them make me cut my hair.
I'm just keeping it.
Yeah, you didn't want them to cut it, because cut it means unplugging.
And everybody will see them plugs.
It's still plugs, man.
Stop making them noise.
You can tell it when it's coming out.
Oh, my goodness.
Well, DJ Premier will be joining us today.
Oh, Primo.
I'm sad I missed that, because I'm out here on tour.
Yeah, producer extraordinaire, of course, from the legendary group Gangstar. Oh, Primo. I'm sad I missed that because I'm out here on tour.
Yeah, producer extraordinaire,
of course,
from the legendary group Gangstar.
Yes, indeed.
So we're going to kick it
with Primo.
And then we got
front page news
what we talking about.
We are since you already
brought up the Popeye's
chicken sandwich
with all the mayhem going on.
How is Popeye's responding?
We'll tell you what they said.
And shout to Chris Brown, man.
Chris Brown is,
I always knew he was
a little crazy,
but he crazy, crazy. What happened? What are you doing there? I was looking Brown, man. Chris Brown is, I always knew he was a little crazy, but he crazy, crazy.
What happened?
What are you doing now?
I was looking online,
so what Chris Brown does,
he has a lot of clothes
that he doesn't wear anymore.
Oh, he was having
a little lawn house sale.
It's today,
so he's having a yard sale
at his crib,
but he just told everybody.
So now there's like a line
of a thousand people out there
just waiting to go
and buy Chris Brown stuff.
What's the problem?
I thought they had shut it,
they had shut it down at first.
No, they can't.
It's not illegal.
You can have a yard sale.
But didn't they try to shut it down or
something happened? It was some type of drama. They went to go talk
to him about the rules and regulations, but they can't shut it down.
You can have a yard sale. He's just selling his own
clothes. You know what's crazy? People were
saying things like, yo, Chris Brown's house has been
broken into twice. Why would he put his address
out there? Clearly, people already
have his address. His house has been broken into twice
already. You can Google anybody's damn address, man. Clearly, people already have his address. His house has been broken into twice already. You can Google anybody's
damn address, man. Anyway,
front page news when we come back. Don't move. It's the
Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela
Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get some front page news.
Where we start, Yee?
Well, let's start with Popeye's. They are
not going to pull that chicken sandwich, even though
there's been all kinds of mayhem everywhere.
Even a killing happened.
Now, people were calling for that, I guess, for them to pull the sandwich.
Of course, I can't even imagine that they would do that.
With all these fights breaking out and all that, the chicken chain is saying that the safety of its employees and customers is always a priority.
And franchisees have worked to boost staffing during this craze to be ready to serve guests very quickly and safely.
They said the restaurants are franchised and additional on-site security matters are handled by the franchisees.
So that's not Popeye's fault that people don't know how to act.
I mean, when you got a consumer craze in America like you have with the Popeye's chicken sandwich now and you have these long lines and people are in these long lines, it might be some altercations.
That ain't Popeye's fault.
Well, people were mad at it.
Remember when Jordan, when people
were fighting over Jordans and getting shot and stabbed, they were
saying Michael Jordan should do something about it. That ain't Michael Jordan's fault
either. That's not anybody's
fault because you have a consumer
craze and you have consumers acting crazy
and lying. That's not their fault. I agree with you.
And you know what? People work really hard
to build up this frenzy. It just isn't
supposed to turn violent. No.
They want that attention.
All right, now the woman who climbed into the Bronx Zoo's lion's den
has been busted by the NYPD.
The woman, Maya Autry, was arrested by cops near the Barclays Center
in Brooklyn, and she got arrested actually yesterday evening.
If you guys recall, she actually also had gotten donkey of the day.
Yeah, she had a long run out here in the streets.
She was in the streets taking pictures with Casanova and all kind of people.
Yeah, she shouldn't get arrested now.
She needs help.
Yeah, she definitely needs help.
You can tell she has mental problems and she needs help.
Absolutely.
Certain things, when you corral these people, yes, they broke the law.
But, I mean, is jail really the best thing for her?
No.
She needs some type of therapy.
She jumped into the thing with lions.
Like, yes, she needs help.
Arrest her for what?
Putting her in jail ain't going to help.
You're taking her out of one den and putting her into another lion's den, which is prison or jail.
No.
All right.
Well, she actually is being charged with criminal trespass for that stunt.
Those are the people that's in line for the Popeye's chicken sandwich.
Okay?
So when you see these fights and stuff break out, just know that it's people willing to
jump in the line then too.
Okay.
They're going to be crazy regardless.
Let them get it.
Let them go first.
Well, let's flashback for people who don't remember.
This is what it was like before she went into the zoo.
I'm in the Bronx right now.
You already know what's next.
It's Queen Empress Maya Louie Edgeworth.
This weekend is my birthday weekend.
That was before 930.
Hey.
Shout out to 930. September 30th. Hey. All the levers is lit. We're 9-30. Shout out to 9-30, September 30th.
All the Leavers is lit.
We in the building.
Shout out to the Bronx.
We in the building.
Shout out to Big Pond.
We in the building.
It's lit.
Gang, gang.
It's lit.
Gang, gang.
Tell you in the Bronx.
Playing Big Pond and the Ice Cream Truck.
People tell you in the Bronx.
You know the vibrations. You know? You know the vibrations part of our life. Playing big puns in the ice cream truck. People tell you in the Bronx. You know the vibrations.
You know?
You know the vibrations.
Gang gang.
But she had also said, if I walked in the line,
then do you think for one second I'm scared of a handcuff?
If I walked in the line.
Scared of a jail cell?
That's right.
And you think I'm scared of anybody in this Popeye's chicken line?
Anybody can get it.
Did you see the white dude get his ass kicked?
No.
Let me tell you something.
I'm going to tell you what is a great, great thing to do.
Go on Instagram and go on the Explorer page and hashtag Popeyes.
There is some great videos.
Boy, this white dude was in Popeyes wild.
And that's why I say it's not a black thing.
Okay?
It's just when America has these consumer crazies, people get crazy.
So what happened?
He's wild now?
This white dude was in Popeyes wild and had the nerve to call them niggas in Popeyes.
Really?
And what I liked about it, they waited until he walked outside because they did not want
to ruin the sanctity that is Popeye's.
And, boy, you talk about a 10-piece.
Oh, they gave it to him.
God damn it.
Damn it.
All right.
I don't know where that was at, but dropping the clues bombs for them
neat girls at Popeye's that beat up that white bear.
My goodness.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to hit us up right now.
Maybe you had a bad night, horrible night,
or maybe you feel blessed and you want to spread some positivity.
Hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary?
Consider this.
Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There's 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 the First, 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 create my own country?
My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? Be part of a great colonial tradition.
What could go wrong?
I was making rockets with black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullets.
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.
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, 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.
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
You better have the same energy.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
What up, Trav?
You've been ducking me, Envy.
Trav, I didn't bet you, Trav.
You just reached your turn. I'm going to get to you in a second. What's up, Yee?
Hey, Boo. What's up, Trav?
How you doing, Boo?
I'm good, honey.
That's good. How's up, Trav? How you doing, boo? I'm good, honey. That's good.
That's good.
How's your tour going?
It's good.
It's very exhausting.
It's a lot of work.
But I think it's been great for lip service and people are really enjoying it.
And that was the main thing for us going on tour.
That's good.
That's good.
Listen, I also want to thank you because Angela Yee is in my music video that I directed.
So I appreciate you, Yee, for doing that little solid for me.
Of course. That's my little video job. Yes, we did that in Philly.
What up, sis? How are you?
Listen, I'm feeling
amazing. You know why I'm feeling amazing,
sir? Talk to me. Talk to me, my fellow
cowboy brother. Listen,
I've been calling every day.
I ain't never sat on hold
that long for three days in a row
where Envy don't want to pick the phone up
because Envy owe me $4,000.
I definitely don't owe you no damn $4,000.
Damn, y'all bet $4,000.
I ain't bet this guy.
I ain't been trying to owe him $4,000.
It was either $4,000 or Envy's butt.
Listen, I'm going to say it like this.
Envy, I want my money by Monday.
If I don't have my money by Monday,
booty goon seeing you on Tuesday.
Hey, Trav, you know what's so disrespectful?
The Dallas Cowboys are on top of the NFC East.
The Giants are at the bottom with the Washington Redskins.
When's the last time a bottom ignored you the way Envy ignored you this week?
Shut up, both of y'all.
We don't take that.
I need my money, Envy.
Bye.
We don't take that kind of disrespect from bottoms, okay?
I didn't bet him at all.
Hello, who's this?
Markita. Hey? Markita.
Hey, Markita.
Get her off your chest.
Good morning.
I was calling because
I don't get to listen
to you guys
like I used to anymore.
Why?
Because I have a new job
and I used to do lifts.
I used to listen to you guys
all the time.
No, you fancy, huh?
You don't want to listen
to us no more?
Well, you know,
the beauty of radio in 2019
is that you can really listen
whenever you want to.
You can go back later on in the day,
listen on YouTube.
You can go back and listen
on the podcast app.
I definitely do that.
I go on YouTube all the time.
So you're listening to us.
So just keep listening to us.
You can put us on the app
and you can listen to us all the time.
What's the problem?
You can go back and listen
to the whole show on the podcast.
They cut out all the commercials
and everything.
What's the problem?
Because, like, I'm at work, so I don't get to listen to you guys.
Like, I used to.
I used to do lips.
I used to.
You want to hear us live.
Right.
Got you.
Well, you know, in life, you can't always get what you want.
So just be happy that there are means and resources for you to get us at all.
Well, thank you, Mama, for listening.
Yeah, thanks for calling.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, this is Daryl. What's up, Daryl. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Daryl.
What's up, Daryl? Get up your chest. What's up, Daryl?
Hey, man, I'm trying to give a shout-out to Charlamagne,
man. I'm watching you right now from
Berkeley, man. Berkeley Stags. We out here.
The Stags, man. 843.
We out here, man. You know that.
Class of 98, even though I was supposed to be
class of 96. You know the vibrations.
Me too. You too, brother.
Well, you graduated two years late like me?
Just like you, man.
We out here.
Goodness gracious.
All right, man. Y'all have a good day.
That's right. Graduated in night school from Berkeley High School, okay?
I got kicked out of two high schools, Berkeley High School
and Scrappard High School, all right?
Graduated in 98, supposed to graduate in 96,
but it don't matter how you start.
It matters how you finish, goddammit.
Well, that young man did the same thing you did. He was supposed to graduate in 96. He graduated in 98, too you start. It matters how you finish, God damn it. Well, that young man did the same thing you did.
He was supposed to graduate in 96.
He graduated in 98, too.
Hey, man, you know God know what he doing.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, hit us up now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Wake up, wake up.
Wake your ass up.
This is your time to get it off your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Say it, say it with your chest.
Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
Natalie, how are you?
Hey, Natalie, get it off your chest.
Now, I was telling her I wanted to talk about that Popeye's chicken sandwich,
how good it is and how crazy people are. But I also feel that the Popeyes employees are encouraging too, because they will
lock the lobby. I live in Florida and I live in San Francisco. And they will lock the lobby of
the restaurant like you would normally visit out. So you're forced to go through the drive-thru.
And the, you know, the lobby is not open. So you have a lot of people
that start and go off
on the employees
and stuff like that
as a result of it.
I think that's crazy.
But the sandwich is good.
It's not good enough
to lose your life
or kill anybody over it.
But if they're giving away
garlic crab or, you know,
free shrimp or something
to Florida's don't block,
it's either crazy or not
because of that sandwich.
It is tasty.
So you're telling me somebody should get killed over garlic, crabs, or shrimp,
but not the sandwich?
Yeah, in Florida you'll see that, but not no chicken.
True.
That's crazy.
I do think that the employees are helping to encourage the craze, too.
Well, I'm glad in Florida y'all know what delicacy to kill over.
You know what I'm saying?
And I'm glad the Popeye's chicken sandwich ain't on the list,
but them garlic crabs and them fried shrimp definitely is.
But in the words of Rick Ross,
Rick Ross once said,
you don't lock the lions out, you lock them in.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up, Evie?
This is Rick from Brooklyn.
Rick, what's up?
Hey, I got two things that coincide
the Popeye's chicken praise with the Bronx, right? So yesterday I was in the Popeye's chicken craze with the Bronx, right?
So yesterday I was in the Bronx.
I just started working in the Bronx.
I transferred there a year now.
And not for nothing, Charlamagne, whatever you say about the Bronx is absolutely right.
It's crazy up here.
I know.
I don't know what's going on, right?
So I watched four people double park yesterday outside of a Popeye's.
And the ticket, the meter man, they just sat outside a Popeye's and just gave, the meet and meet, they just sat outside a
Popeye's and just gave everybody
that went in to get a chicken sandwich ticket.
They didn't move. They were there for like 25 minutes.
Just double parking
and people were just getting tickets. And they were like,
people weren't complaining because they were getting their sandwiches.
And I'm like, yo, what kind of marketing
strategy does Popeye's have
that people are not afraid to get tickets to get
the sandwich? Yeah, that's crazy.
That's an $80 burger right there.
What are they putting in these sandwiches? I don't know what's going on.
It's just the latest
American consumer craze, and truth be
told, man, everybody suffers from FOMO.
So being that you, if you haven't had
the sandwich, you just want to be a part of the conversation.
You can't be a part of the conversation if you haven't had it.
They do know that
eventually the sandwich is going to be around.
It's not going to go away after this.
That's not true.
They put it out there before, and then they went away for some months,
and then they just put it back out last week.
Then I don't make no sense.
Envy, I want to ask you one more thing before you leave, please.
Yes.
Can I get a ticket to the J.K. Chow Center for your seminar, bro?
Can people buy tickets?
Yes.
He said, yo, like Envy disappeared.
I know you've given away tickets before, so I'm asking. Nah, bro. Can people buy tickets? Yes. He said, yo, like, Envy disappeared.
I know you've given away tickets before, so I'm asking, can I get a ticket?
Yeah, I got you, bro.
Don't do that.
Don't you say, I got you, and then hang up.
Now, what if it was that easy to get a Popeye's chicken sandwich?
Right.
If only it was that easy.
I got you.
I need to get to the seminar.
I got you.
I got you.
I'm going to put you on hold and get your information, man. Calm your ass down.
I got you. I appreciate that.
Thank you very much, Henry. All right. Now, when's the
seminar? What date? Do you know? The 14th,
ain't it? No, it ain't no damn 14th,
man. The 14th of December. No,
it's not the 14th of December, bro.
At the Jacob Javis? No, it's not the 14th.
It's the 15th of December at the Jacob
Javis. He was close.
He was close. All right. All right.
I got you.
Hold on, okay?
I appreciate it.
Yeah, we are doing a real estate seminar at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City, Manhattan.
It's our last one of the year, so we're excited about it.
It took me a while to get the venue, but we finally got it.
So that's December 15th.
If you want information, click the link in my bio.
Now, Ye, we got rumors on the way?
Yes.
Is it ever okay for somebody to use the N-word based on who they are friends with?
We'll tell you what billionaire's wife did just that and who she said she gets the pass from.
Okay.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
What's happening?
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk to Baby.
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, looks like the baby has a baby on the way,
according to sources who are close to him and his child's mother.
They are expecting their third child
together, even though they are both
single. They get along really well.
So, looks like they get along
extra well and they're having a third child.
That's dope. I would love to have another child.
If I did, though, I would do it in vitro, though. I gotta
fix my fight.
I gotta give me a little boy.
Alright, now Kanye West
is saying that Donald Trump is the reason that people have the ability to buy more land right now.
He attended the New York Times Dealbook Conference in Manhattan.
And that's where Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner spoke about the family's entrepreneurship.
According to Rolling Stone, they reported that Kanye did get on the mic at one point during the event.
Instead of talking about a bunch of different things like his newly purchased ranch.
He said, we have 12,500 acres
in Cody, Wyoming, and Trump
has actually opened up the ability
to buy more land in America. In America
you can buy land and we can be owners. We don't
have to be just a product of what black
Twitter tells us what we're supposed
to be. So we can buy land before?
What legislation is he talking about? It sounds to me like
you got audio? Let me hear it.
But we always pointing
at the white people,
but yet we want to spend all
of our money on foreigns.
We want to spend all our money on luxury
as opposed to going and buying some
land. America is
for sale. But the culture
has you focused so much
on f***ing somebody, bitch, and
pulling up in a foreign and rapping
about things that could get you locked
up and then saying you about prison
reform. Like, it's
bro, we brainwashed
out here. I mean, these are all
old talking points, though. Like, Marcus
Garvey, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, they've
always been encouraging black people to buy land.
Like, even back in the day when people used to wear the
red, black, and green medallions, that's what the
green used to represent, land, because
that's the most valuable thing a black man
can own in America. So I don't understand.
My whole life growing up, all my grandfather said was
save your money, buy a house, buy a house,
buy a house. Why can't you act like he's saying
something so profound?
I didn't know you couldn't buy land before Donald Trump.
I didn't know Trump is the reason that we can buy land now.
He must be talking about Opportunity Zone legislation.
And even if he is talking about Opportunity Zone legislation.
I don't think he bought his property with Opportunity Zone legislation.
I mean, I don't know.
It might be an Opportunity Zone.
I don't know.
I mean, you can look on the map and see if you got the address.
If he is talking about Opportunity Zone legislation, that's still Senator Tim Scott who created that.
A black man.
That's not necessarily for African
American people. No.
No, not at all. I mean, it's
to encourage them to,
but, you know, we really... Not necessarily
because they want you to sit your money
for 10 years and most of the time we
can't sit our money for 10 years because we don't have it.
But for the brothers and sisters who can,
it's really for us to
invest back into our own communities. Anybody can do it. Yeah, anybody can do it. White people can do it, sisters who can, it's really for us to invest back into our own communities.
Anybody can do it.
Yeah, anybody can do it.
White people can do it.
Asian people can do it.
Yeah, you're not getting any preferential treatment here.
No, you can get no treatment because you're African American.
So it's not necessarily for us.
But it was created by a black man.
Trevor Noah is producing a film on an eight-year-old Nigerian chess prodigy.
I love this idea.
You know, I used to work with Wu-Tang and all the time on the road, they played chess non-stop.
And so that film
is about Tani
Aduwumi, 8-year-old Nigerian
refugee who went from homelessness to
internationally known chess champion.
So that film will be
produced under his Day Zero Productions
imprint alongside his business partner
as well. Sounds pretty great
to me. It's a family survival story.
The family was seeking asylum only to become homeless in New York
and what the parents will go through for their children,
absolutely anything.
I got to teach my son how to play chess.
My uncle who passed away, Uncle George, taught me how to play chess.
And that's something I just never taught my son.
And I got to teach my son.
I'm going to start this week and I'm going to teach my son.
It'll help him have some patience, too, because playing chess...
I used to play chess with Gizzo all the time, and he was so amazing at chess, it would really upset me.
I'm going to teach him this weekend.
And he would play on the clock.
So, you know, when you play on the clock, the pressure's really on.
You can't, because if not, you sit there and think for so long.
Like, if I do this, then he does this, and I do this, and then he does that.
When you play on the clock, it's like, bang, bang, and you got to move quick.
All right. Now, a billionaire's wife,
the wife of billionaire hedge funder, says that
she is not racist for using the N-word because
she is friends with Alicia Keys.
Lisa Falcone, who is the
wife of hedge funder Philip
Falcone, told her former personal chef
that she wasn't racist after she
used the N-word with her chef
and said that if he wanted to, he could ask her black friend Alicia Keys to vouch for her,
according to these court papers.
Now, what happened was she used the N-word after she met,
after meeting the cook's girlfriend, Brian Villanueva's girlfriend, who is black.
And he said, according to Brian Villanueva, he said his girlfriend came to help him cook
for a Hamptons dinner party that they were hosting that Alicia Keys and Swiss Beats did attend, by the way.
And the next morning, they said Lisa commented on how articulate his girlfriend was.
She said, your girlfriend speaks very well.
She seems educated.
I would describe her as a chocolate-covered marshmallow.
Then she went on to say, do you use the word, and she uses the N-word, at home with your girlfriend?
And that's when her explanation was that,
you know, I'm friends with Alicia Keys.
Well, yeah, you need to add some allegedly in that story.
Allegedly.
Yeah, because the chef is suing her,
and the chef said that she said those things.
Yeah, I mean, this is all in the paperwork
from what the chef is saying.
Now, according to the lawsuit,
Brian Villanueva also asked his boss
to explain these comments,
and she responded
about Alicia Keys and
Swizz Beatz. She said, I mean,
Alicia Keys, she said, I mean, she speaks really
eloquently. Alicia Keys doesn't speak that way. She didn't
have an education and was discovered
by Clive Davis when she was 15 years old.
Swizz Beatz definitely doesn't speak that
way either. So this is all
in that lawsuit paperwork. You know
what's crazy? The chef is throwing all that sauce on that story, but he's
only suing for $4,230.
Yeah, $4,200.
He's suing for it. You got that great
elaborate story and that's all you're suing for?
Well, he's suing for discrimination
and violation of New York labor laws.
So it's not like he's trying to get some huge
payout settlement. He just wants the money he's supposed
to get, allegedly. Especially being that he said
that the billionaire's wife was like they would
pay him if he signs the paperwork
and agrees not to tell those stories.
That would go harder than $4,000. Yeah, that story would work for a little bit more than
$4,000, don't you think?
Come on now.
Alright, I'm Angela Yee and that is your
Rumor Report. Alright, thank you, Ms. Yee.
Now we got front page news. What are we talking about?
Yes, I mean, let's get back to it.
Everybody wants to talk about these Popeye's chicken sandwiches.
How is Popeye's responding to all of the mayhem?
And in conjunction with that, let's talk about obesity in America, which are the worst in the states that are suffering from obesity.
All right.
We'll get into that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Is your country falling apart?
Feeling tired?
Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Good morning. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed?
A little bit revolutionary?
Consider this. Start your own country.
I planted the flag.
I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete.
Everybody's doing it.
I am King Ernest Emmanuel.
I am the Queen of Laudonia.
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.
The Waikana tribe 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 warheads.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Bullet holes, yeah. We need help!
We still have the off-road
portion to go.

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 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 gonna figure out the rhythm
of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty

Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Where we starting, Yee?
Well, let's talk about Popeye's.
Sorry, my mic wasn't on.
Popeye's is not pulling that chicken sandwich,
even though there's been all kinds of mayhem.
A Popeye's spokesperson said that the Maryland incident
where someone got killed is a tragedy.
We are saddened to hear about this senseless act of
violence. We, along with the franchisee,
are fully cooperating with local authorities
and actively working to gather more information.
There's been other violent incidents
that have gone down with these Popeyes chicken
sandwiches, but they said the safety
of their employees and customers are always a
priority, but they're just going to work to
make sure that they boost staffing during
this time. Popeyes is not responsible for how people act in their lines and in their stores.
I'm not responsible for humans acting out.
This is just the latest American consumer craze.
And it's not just black people who are in on this, okay?
We reinforce negative stereotypes about ourselves by saying that.
America does stuff like this all the time, and it's always some consumer craze that makes people go nuts.
If you want to see all Americans wilding out,
wait until those midnight sales on Black Friday.
And it's not even...
It's not even like it's a limited amount of Popeye's
chicken. Popeye's is saying, yo, we got you.
The chicken is here.
And we're still wilding out for them.
This is just how Americans act when it's a consumer
craze. It's going to be fights. It's going to be
violence. Once again, wait a couple weeks
for Black Friday when they have those midnight sales at those stores
and watch how people act.
Alright, now let's talk about obesity
and the problems that we have with obesity.
It's an epidemic in America
and of course it causes other
serious health problems too. It can increase those
issues. So according to a new
report, they're saying that the most
obese states in America
are Mississippi and West Virginia,
according to this report.
The least
obese states are Colorado and
Utah. All that weed in Colorado?
Louisiana
ranked the highest for cholesterol
and Montana ranked the lowest there.
And they said that most popular comfort foods
are what really corresponds with the
obesity levels.
So, for instance, right, if you're in California, fish tacos is their main comfort food.
And they came in 47th on the list overall.
But fish tacos are only about 244 calories. Meanwhile, if you're in Mississippi, which is one of the worst states, one of their comfort foods is mud pie.
And that's about 510 calories per serving.
So whatever state, their most popular
comfort foods that really correlates to the
rates of obesity in that
state. What's in mud pie?
I've never had a mud pie.
Me neither. But it's, yeah,
it's, I guess, very dense dessert.
500 calories don't seem like a lot
easy, though. Well, for a little
piece of pie, it's also just dessert.
So you got to imagine you eat a meal usually, and then you have dessert on top of that.
I just want y'all to know, too, that the Popeye's chicken sandwich, both the classic and spicy version, is 690 calories.
I'm going to throw that out there.
Imagine you have that and then a mud pie.
All right.
Kansas City voters, they have chosen to remove Martin Luther King Jr.'s name from a historic street.
The reason why, yes, is that crazy?
Now, in a special election that they had on Tuesday,
they decided to change that street back to
the Paseo Boulevard, and that got
65% of the vote, so no more Martin Luther
King Jr. name for that street.
There was a lot of different debates
between different groups who wanted to honor
Martin Luther King's legacy, and
some residents who didn't want to lose their
neighborhood's quote identity. So
the Paseo is what a lot of locals call it. It's one of
the oldest boulevards in the city and
it runs through a predominantly African American
section of the city. They said we don't mind doing
something to honor Dr. King but we don't
want you to take Paseo away from us to do it.
So they voted to
remove that name. What is Paseo?
Does Paseo mean something to the people there?
I guess they're saying that
that street's one of their oldest streets
in the city and
you can still call it that too by the way. When people
rename streets a lot of times it'll have
the name that the street was and the
renamed street on top of it.
So I don't see anything wrong with that.
They do that in Brooklyn all the time. They do that in Harlem.
Yeah all the time.
So is Jay-Z still good on any MLK Boulevard? wrong with that. Like, they do that in Brooklyn all the time. They do that in Harlem. Yeah, all the time. Mm-hmm.
So, is Jay-Z still good on any MLK Boulevard?
Because if they changed
the name,
if he was good on it before
and then they changed the name,
is he still good on it
after they changed the name?
Maybe he doesn't want
to go to that one now.
That is very true.
All right.
Well, that is
your front page news.
Now, let's talk T.I.
a little bit.
Now, T.I.
recently,
was it his podcast?
He was talking
on his podcast?
No, he was on somebody else's podcast.
I think it was somebody who was being interviewed on somebody else's podcast.
And he says that he goes to the gynecologist with his 18-year-old daughter every year to make sure she's still a virgin.
You know what's crazy, man?
I was on a flight yesterday, right?
I was coming back from L.A.
And when I landed, I saw that T.I. was the number one trending topic.
And he had 1.5 million mentions on Twitter.
I immediately thought something happened to him.
You know what I'm saying?
Because when somebody gets mentioned that much, there's something wrong.
1.5 million.
When I clicked on it and saw what he was actually trending for, I was like, yo, people really, really got to find some better things to do at that time.
Well, let's hear the audio.
Not only have we had the conversation, we have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her height. So this is one time. Well, let's hear the audio. Not only have we had the conversation, we have yearly trips to the gynecologist
to check her height.
So this is one time we go.
I think this might have been after her 16th birthday.
And this is what we do, like, you know,
right after the birthday, we celebrate.
You know, usually, like, the day after
the party, she's enjoying her gifts.
I put a sticky note on the dope.
Gyno.
Tomorrow, 9.30. This is a great conversation starter. I love the fact that, you dope. Got no. No. Tomorrow at 9.30.
This is a great conversation starter.
I love the fact that, you know, this started this conversation.
But 1.5 million tweets, people.
We have another audio?
Yep.
Parts of the audio.
We'll sit down and the doctor will come and talk.
And, you know, the doctor is maintaining a high level of professionalism.
He's like, well, you know, sir, in order for me to share information,
I say, Deja, they want you to sign this so we can share information.
Is there anything that you would not want me to know?
Oh, okay.
See, doc, ain't no problem.
Then they come and say, okay, I just want you to know there are other ways
besides sex that the hymen can be broken.
Bike riding, other forms of athletic physical
activity is she an athlete no i say look she's not she don't ride no horses she'll ride no bike
she'll play no sports man just check the hymen please i love the conversation that we can have
around there's a lot of great topics involved in this one you got fatherhood you got patriarchy
you got sacred masculine you You got divine feminine.
I'm ready to get into it.
All right.
Well, let's talk about it.
Let's discuss.
800-585-1051.
What are your thoughts?
Let's discuss.
I have quite a few.
Let's discuss, guys.
All right.
Let's talk about it when we come back. Yeah, so do I.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Pull out your phone.
Call in right now.
Call me.
Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic.
Break it down.
800-585-1051.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about T.I.
Now, T.I. says during the interview, he said he goes to the Ghana colleges with his 18-year-old daughter every year to make sure she's still a virgin.
He said he's been going with her since she was 16.
Since she was 16.
She's 18 now.
I don't think that she needs him to go with her anymore.
She's not a minor.
Well, let's play the audio.
We have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her height.
We'll sit down and the doctor will come and talk.
You know, the doctor is maintaining a high level of professionalism.
He's like, well, you know, sir, in order for me to share information, I say, Deja, they want you to sign this.
Then they come and say, okay, I just want you to know there are other ways besides sex that the hymen can be broken.
Bike riding, other forms of athletic physical activity.
Is she an athlete?
No.
I say, look, doc.
She's not.
She don't ride no horses. She don't ride no horses.
She don't ride no bikes.
She don't play no sports, man.
Just check the hymen, please.
So what are your thoughts?
800-585-1051.
Let's start with you, Ye.
Well, of course, everybody should know this, but having your hymen broken, not broken, that has nothing to do with your virginity.
You can have your hymen intact and have had sex, and you can have your hymen broken and still be a virgin.
And I think women should be able to
control their own bodies. If she decides that
she wants to have sex,
then she should be able to do that without somebody
interfering with her and telling her what she can and can't
be doing. The other issue I had was, he said
he doesn't do this with his sons.
So it's okay for his sons to do that
and not micromanage their
sex lives.
Right. But he doesn't also pressure them about not having sex.
And he said that when he was asked about it in the interview, what he said, I will definitely feel different about a boy than I will about a girl.
And he does not give the same level of scrutiny to his sons when it comes to their sexual activity.
So to me, that's treating people like, of course, there's a double standard there,
but you should be able to educate and have conversations with your children.
And she's 18 years old, even from when she was 16.
At the time she was 16, you should be able to have those conversations where you talk to your daughter about sex and sexual decisions that you want to make
and what you decide to do with your body.
Nobody else should be in control of what you do with your body.
All right.
What do you think, Charlamagne?
I mean, I think it's a few things, man.
I say, number one, what T.I. shouldn't have done is share his family business
with these digital D-heads because now you're opening yourself up
to a bunch of people having an opinion on you and your family
and family business should be kept within the family.
That's number one, right?
But number two, we all know that, you know,
we have fathers who aren't in their kids' lives at all.
So we give them hell for that.
So I'm not going to be upset at a father for being overprotective because that's what this is, right?
It's a classic example of a father being overprotective, you know?
And number three, you know, I have been doing a lot of work on myself.
I go to therapy, but I also have a spiritual advisor, a sacred purpose coach,
and we discuss things like
sacred masculine and divine feminine.
And to me, this is a prime example of your
internal sacred masculine and divine
feminine energies being out of balance. See, TI
sacred masculine energy is looking like
toxic masculine energy because there's no
balance, right? Because the masculine qualities TI
is displaying here are logic and reason
and action and being firm. And I would
even say survival, but those qualities need to be balanced with the divine feminine qualities of nurturing,
being gentle, emotional, and probably patience.
Because I don't think T.I. was wrong.
I just think it needs to be a balance of both the sacred masculine and divine feminine.
And that's just something that we all need to explore more of.
Well, I would say this.
T.I. has the right to raise his daughter how he wants to raise his daughter.
He is a father and he is being protective.
I do go to the doctor with my daughter.
I don't ask the doctor if a hymen was broken, but I do go.
And there's times where my daughter has to fill out the information to find out what's going on in my daughter's life.
And, yes, I am in my daughter's life.
And, yes, I will tell her don't have sex until she's married.
But she can do what she wants to do. And i want her to be as open as possible with you and you can be in your daughter's
life and you know that doesn't mean you have to go to the doctor with her and see if her hymen is
intact by the way that doesn't mean being in your daughter's life does not equal make sure her hymen
is intact and that does not mean i'm in my daughter's life i understand what y'all are saying
when y'all say that but those are just semanticsantics. At the end of the day, all of us as fathers are trying to keep our daughters from having sex for as long as possible.
Absolutely.
That's just the truth to the matter.
Absolutely.
You know, whether we're being overprotective about it or not, and I know eventually, I've said this on this radio several times,
yes, my daughter is going to have sex one day.
You know why?
Because I'm having sex with somebody's daughter.
Envy, you had sex with somebody's daughter.
We all married somebody's daughter.
That is going to happen.
Right.
But if I can prevent her from doing that
for as long as possible,
I will absolutely try.
And I'm not...
I would have been horrified
if my father did that to me growing up.
I would have been horrified.
I'm not going to sit here and lie.
But, you know, I took Gia's virginity.
We've been married for 18 years,
been together for 25 years.
But if I felt like...
I think Gia broke your hymen, bro. I'm going to be honest with you. I just wanted for 25 years. But if I felt like...
I think Gil broke your hymen, bro.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I just wanted to say that.
But if I took...
But if I thought there was a possibility that my daughter would be having sex
and that I know me going to the doctor with her would stop her
or maybe make her not have sex, yes, I would go.
And I would do it all the time.
You said something so real just now.
Yes, I would.
We don't know the context to this, right?
Because at the time when he was doing this, she was like 16.
How we know she wasn't running around with some little boy?
You know what I mean?
It's something that made him that paranoid.
Because we're already naturally paranoid as fathers.
But if I go to the doctor with my daughter every year,
and my daughter knows I go,
that's going to encourage her not to have sex
because she knows daddy going to be checking. And we're saying that she
didn't have no control over her body, but
the doctor had to ask her to give the
father permission, right?
That wasn't real permission, though. If I'm with you right
there, you should also be able to have private conversations
with your, you should also be
able to have conversations with your gynecologist
that is not going to be revealed because that's why
you go to the doctor, right? There's some type of privacy
there. Even when you're a minor?
When you go to have conversations,
yeah, and ask about anything,
they don't release your records to anybody.
They're not supposed to do that.
That's a totally private thing.
But if the doctor asked her and she said yes,
then what's the problem?
Look, I didn't have no choice
talking to the doctor without my parents there.
And my daughter doesn't have a choice either.
We all at this doctor's appointment.
I just think it's dangerous to tell young women
that somebody else has control over
what you do or don't do with your body. You have complete
control over that. And if you decide
that you want to... I didn't get that from this conversation.
I didn't get that. Lose your virginity.
Then you can. And nobody should tell you that
you can't. Nobody should be checking to see if you have
or if you haven't. So you're telling me as a father.
Right. I got three daughters. You're telling me as a
father. I got three daughters. Because you just said we need to have
the conversation about having, about birds and the bees with our daughters.
Correct.
I am supposed to encourage my daughter to have sex at 15 and 16 years old?
No, you're supposed to encourage her to be able to have conversations with you
and be open and honest with you about whatever
so that you can have that lines of communications open
so you guys can talk to each other, so she can come to you about anything.
The conversation starts now.
It shouldn't be like I'm scared until you are married okay because you're
going to hell if you have sex before marriage i know your mom and daddy did it but we didn't know
it any better right okay and these ain't okay so please keep your legs closed baby girl all right
until you find somebody that really loves you and wants to be with you. All right. I'm sorry. That's my take on it as a father.
I just think he's scaring the ish out of her.
If you know every year I'm going to go to the gynecologist with you to check your hymen,
you're not going to have sex.
You're not.
You also don't want to make women feel ashamed about sex in their bodies because that affects
sex.
I'm not.
No, because he's using words to throw people off.
You're saying women.
She's 16, Yee.
At the time, she was 16.
She's still a young woman.
16 is a young woman.
I don't want my 16-year-old daughter
having sex.
Even though I know the reality
is she probably will,
I don't want her to.
You know why?
You know why?
Because I saw...
I know how that affects you
when you're young.
I don't want my...
And you also don't want her
to be scared to come to you
about it if it does happen.
That's why you got to have
a balance of sacred masculine and divine feminine.
Go to your mama with that.
Because your mama going to know how to come talk to me about it.
Because she's going to tell me later on anyway.
That's right.
And then I know how to talk to your mama, and then your mama can relay the messages to you.
Okay?
Because I know I'm not going to handle this correctly yet.
Because my divine feminine and sacred masculine have not balanced the way that they need to.
I don't even know what divine feminine and masculine is, but all I know is I can't deal with it, man.
Talk to your mama.
Now, let's open the phone lines for people.
All right.
800-585-1051 is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Divine, masculine, femininity, and all that other ish.
It's topic time.
Pick up the phone, man.
Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club.
Talk about it.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now, if you just joined us, we're talking T.I.
Now, he said that he would go to the gynecologist with his daughter,
his 16-year-old daughter, to make sure that the hymen was intact,
that she was still a virgin.
So let's play some of the audio of him talking about it during the interview.
We have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her height.
We'll sit down and the doctor will come and talk.
You know, the doctor is maintaining a high level of professionalism.
He's like, well, you know, sir, in order for me to share information,
I say, Deja, they want you to sign this.
Then they come and say, okay, I just want you to know
there are other ways besides sex that the hymen can be broken.
Bike riding, other forms of athletic physical activity.
Is she an athlete?
No.
I say, look, doc.
She's not.
She don't ride no horses.
She don't ride no bikes.
She don't play no sports, man.
Just check the hymen, please.
Let's go straight to the phone.
We said a lot during the last break, and I ain't going back and forth with you about this.
Hello, who's this?
My name's Valerie.
Hey, Valerie.
What do you think about T.I. going to the God of Colleges
with his daughter to check her hymen?
I think it's really gross.
I think that he, like, wants to own his daughter's virginity, really.
I think that he's got some masculinity issues with that.
Listen, I do think that it needs to be a better balance
between sacred masculine and divine feminine.
That I do agree with.
But I just cannot knock a father for being overprotective of his daughter
because that's all he's really doing.
He wants his daughter to be a virgin as long as possible,
even though we know that's not the reality of the situation.
Somebody is eventually going to trick your daughter into giving up some.
Okay?
But I don't want that for as long as possible.
I mean, I would say the same thing.
I mean, if my daughter was around a boy and I thought that maybe she was getting a little
too close with the boy and I wanted to encourage her not to have sex, that might be a scare
tactic.
I would rather have had, and I had this whole conversation yesterday.
We had this own every piece discussion, which was all about sexuality and owning your body
and owning yourself and having these open conversations.
I think what really works best is when your parents can come to you and have these open
conversations about sex and what it's all about and what happens.
And if you make these decisions, here's what's going to happen and come to me and talk to
me about anything.
This is part of the open conversation, all right?
T.I.
I don't want you to have sex.
That doesn't sound very open.
It is open.
Hello, who's this?
Liza.
Hey, what's up, Liza?
Now, we're talking about T.I. and him going to the gynecologist with his daughter.
What are your thoughts?
I think it's highly inappropriate and disrespectful and kind of a violation.
When I was 13, my mom kind of surprised me with a visit to the gynecologist.
She didn't tell me where I was going or what I was going for.
And when i got
there it was an extremely kind of scary situation you know i didn't know who this guy i didn't even
know what a gynecologist was at that point um and i think you know charlamagne mentioned like divine
masculine divine feminine i think it's really about respecting a person's body and just guiding
them through the process of life and just not being controlling you know especially for a dad
there's a different type of way to kind of guide your children through the topic of sex and just not being controlling you know and you're right and that's why
you know when it comes to those divine feminine qualities you know it's a lot
of them but you know nurturing being gentle emotional in patience is what I
think you know TI might have been gentle, emotional, and patience is what I think, you know,
T.I. might have been lacking in this situation.
Hello, who's this?
Lisa.
Hey, Lisa, what do you think about T.I. going to the gynecologist
with his daughter and making sure her hymen's intact?
There's nothing wrong with it.
I have three daughters.
If they didn't go to the doctor with them a few times,
it might have made my life a little easier.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, we knock men for not being in their kids' lives,
and then when you got a guy like T.I. who's being overprotective,
we knocking him for that.
Like, I didn't know you could.
I didn't know as a daddy I could.
What if there is no wife in the life or no wife,
and I'm the dad, I got sole custody,
I can't take my daughter to the gynecologist?
What are we saying?
Of course you can, but I don't think you should make a woman feel ashamed about sex.
That's all.
Like, it's a shameful thing.
Yeah, whatever.
I got three daughters.
I'm definitely making my daughters feel ashamed about sex when they're teenagers.
Because it will actually affect them in relationships later in life,
and a lot of women will tell you that.
When they turn 18, they can make their own decisions.
But when they're 15, 16, no, I don't want them having sex.
800-585-1051.
Call us up. What are your thoughts? We're talking
T.I. going to the gynecologist with
his daughter at 16 and making sure
her hymen was intact to make sure she wasn't having
sex. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
DJ Envy, Angela
Yee, Charlamagne, the guy. We are
The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking
about T.I. Now, he
went to the gynecologist
for the last couple of years
with his daughter
when she was 16
and he was just checking her home
and make sure she wasn't having sex.
So, let's play a clip of the audio.
We have yearly trips
to the gynecologist
to check her height.
Oh.
We'll sit down
and the doctor will come
and talk.
And you know,
the doctor's maintaining
a high level of professionalism.
He's like,
well, you know, sir,
in order for me
to share information, I say, Deja, they want you to sign this. Then they, you know, sir, in order for me to share information,
I say, Deja, they want you to sign this.
Then they come and say, okay, I just want you to know
there are other ways besides sex that the hymen can be broken.
Bike riding, other forms of athletic physical activity.
Is she an athlete?
No.
I say, look, doc.
She's not.
She don't ride no horses.
She don't ride no bikes.
She don't play no sports, man. Just check the, look, doc. She's not. She don't ride no horses. She don't ride no bikes. She don't play no sports, man.
Just check the hymen, please.
So, 800-585-1051.
We're asking, what are your thoughts?
Now, Steven, the white dude.
And you know what?
He doesn't do this with his sons, which is crazy.
You can't check your son's hymen, Z.
No, but you can ask them.
You can tell them.
You can also tell them not to have sex.
We know that a double standard exists.
It just is what it is.
I don't know what to tell you.
And that's how people go out in the world and they start thinking that men have a different,
they have more opportunities and other things that they can do that women can't do.
And you're teaching them that at a young age.
Because of sex?
No.
Listen, I wouldn't want my little sons 15 and 16 having sex either.
You know why?
Because I don't want them to get some little girl pregnant because they ain't got no goddamn money.
And guess who would end up having to take care of that child?
Me.
So, yes, I would be telling my son the same thing.
If you're out here doing what you're doing, you better wear condoms.
And I'd be telling my daughter, hey, I don't want you to have sex,
but if you're out here doing what you're doing,
you better make sure these little boys are protecting themselves
because I ain't taking care of no other babies.
Well, I don't have a conversation.
Just don't have sex.
How about that?
I'm with that, too.
Period.
No nothing.
There's no sex in this house.
But you're not going to check her hymen, right?
You're not going to have her hymen checked.
That's how y'all acting.
I'm not going to check my daughter's hymen.
Y'all acting like T.I. was checking his daughter's hymen on his own.
That's how y'all acting with this situation.
Instead of having a productive conversation about patriarchy and divine, feminine, and sacred masculine.
But he's a father, and he can raise his kids the way that he wants, and I'm not mad at it.
I wouldn't do the same, but I'm not mad at it.
I wonder how Deja feels about it.
Hello, who's this?
Hello?
Hey, Tasha?
Hi, yes.
Hi, good morning, guys.
Good morning.
How do you feel about T.I.
checking his daughter's hymen?
Man, shut up.
That's not what happened.
Y'all, I'm not going to let y'all
do that to my guy now.
Let me rephrase that.
That's not right.
How do you feel about T.I.
going to the gynecologist
with his daughter
to check this hymen
to make sure she wasn't
having sex?
Because that's how
rumors get started. By noon today, it'll be T.I. checking his daughter's check the timing to make sure she wasn't having sex. Because that's how rumors get started. By noon
today, it'll be T.I.L. checking his daughter's timing.
Nobody thinks that. I don't see a problem
with it, honestly. Why?
The reason why is because I think
that it's beautiful that a father is actively
involved in the conversation of
his child's sex life. I think it's
beautiful he's going to the doctor with his child
and I also think it's beautiful that he's instilling
his own values within his own family.
That's his child.
I agree.
So the fact that he is wanting to promote and to encourage his daughter to be a virgin,
if you think about in society, what is virginity?
Virginity is nothing.
There's no value behind it.
So the fact that he is doing that with his daughter, it's showing his daughter that he values virginity.
He values her body.
And that will then correlate to her to also value her body and value her virginity as
well.
You think he should do that?
You think he should do that with his sons or only with his daughter?
I do.
But that's another conversation.
So for this one, we're talking about his daughter.
But I also feel like that should be a conversation with his son as well as with his daughter.
I think it's a scare tactic because if I tell my daughter I'm coming with you every year, you're going to think about having sex.
You'll be like, no, my dad's going to be there.
He's going to know, so maybe I'll wait.
That's how I feel.
And that's a better scare tactic.
FYI, having your hymen intact does not mean that you're a virgin.
We know that, but we know what he's trying to do.
He's trying to keep her being a virgin.
We know that.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's going on?
Hey, I agree with T.I. Good morning, you guys what's going on? Hey, I agree with T.I.
Good morning, you guys. Good morning, you guys. I agree with T.I. with that, man.
I got an 11-year-old daughter. Last week,
I got a call saying she got a boyfriend.
Her brother switched on her. She got her phone
took him. That's why she hasn't been answering me.
And I kind of agree with him on that.
You know, my hairline went back against
when I heard that, man.
I've been looking for the Tiger toy
recipe online since then.
I've been like, damn, what?
Thank you, bro.
You guys have a great morning, man. Have a good one, man.
Have a great one.
All right. Let's go to one more line. Hello, who's this?
Yo, what's up? MBSU boy, Mello.
Mello, what's up, man? What you think about T.I.
going to the gynecologist with his daughter and making sure
her hymen was intact? That man is bugging.
Like, that is ridiculous.
He has some serious control issues.
And on top of that, there's too many factors to, like,
determine if she's actually still a virgin.
What if she messing with somebody who not really that equipped
and her hymen ain't real?
Man, shut up, man.
Goodbye, man.
And what does virginity even mean?
If you do oral sex, are you still a virgin?
I don't want my daughter sucking no s*** easy, ye.
All of this is the same thing.
I don't want this until she's old enough to make these own decisions, right?
Goodness gracious.
Jesus.
All right.
Listen, this is the moral of the story.
And the reality is every woman you love in your life is eventually going to have sex,
oral and otherwise, all right?
There's nothing we can do about it.
And yes, us as men, we are going to look extremely crazy being overprotective
trying to prevent our daughters from having sex.
But that don't mean that we not going to try.
I'm trying to keep my daughters, you know, from
having sex for as long as possible. I got three.
Me too. But I'm just telling you.
My daughter's in son. I don't want them to have sex until
I don't have no sons yet.
I'm just telling you we need balance.
We need balance between the sacred masculine
and divine feminine. I encourage everybody to go out there and do okay? We need balance between the sacred masculine and divine feminine.
I encourage everybody to go out there and do your Googles and look up what sacred masculine and divine feminine is
because you have masculine qualities and you have divine feminine qualities.
And I think right now, T.I. is just lacking some of the divine feminine qualities
like nurturing, being gentle, emotional, and probably patience.
But I don't think he's wrong.
I don't think he's wrong.
All right.
Up next is your rumors.
You got rumors on the way?
Yes, we'll talk about Whitney Houston.
Her best friend, Robin Crawford, is opening up finally
on their love affair that everyone kind of knew about.
All right, and also next hour, Ask Yee.
So if you want to get on the phone lines,
if you need relationship advice or any type of advice,
call Yee right now, 800-585-1051.

E-J-M-V, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Chris Brown.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, Chris Brown's yard sale appears to be a big hit.
Now, the yard sale started yesterday.
They said there were no issues.
The LAPD did try to shut it down at first, but fortunately it didn't happen.
He can do whatever he wants to do on his own property, and that could be selling whatever items he wants.
And a lot of people are speaking out about the things that they purchased.
One person said he spent nearly $500 on vintage items, and it was probably worth $3,000 for what he paid $500 for.
And another excited buyer was
trying to make some money reselling
the items that he purchased.
So the line is crazy. I thought that was so smart and dope.
I wanted to do that, I think like
two years ago. I have so much clothes
and so many sneakers that I don't wear no more. My wife wouldn't let me do it.
She was like, you're not going to put your address out there.
But I was like, babe, everybody has an address anyway.
Yeah, you had your house for sale.
Your address was everywhere.
Right.
You could conceal your address, though, if you have it under.
You don't have to be under your name.
LLC.
Yeah, it could be an LLC.
But also, Chris Brown has parties at his house all the time.
Like, so many people know his address.
It's not a secret.
And his house has been broken into twice.
Everybody already knows where he lives at.
I thought that was so smart.
That's dope.
Just a good idea.
You hire a few more shooters, you know, and you keep it moving.
All right. By shooters, you know, and you keep it moving. All right.
By shooters, I mean security.
Correct.
Let's talk about Whitney Houston.
Her best friend, Robin Crawford, is finally opening up about their situation and what their relationship was.
And she has her own memoir coming out.
Seven years after Whitney tragically passed away, she said,
I'd come to the point where I felt the need to stand up for our friendship.
And I felt an urgency to stand up and share the woman behind the incredible talent because there
was nobody closer to whitney houston than her best friend robin crawford and they said she was
also in the early 80s whitney houston's romantic partner something that she has never ever spoken
about until now so her powerful new memoir is called a Song for You, My Life with Whitney Houston. And there's
excerpts now available online where she basically talks about the first moment that she saw Whitney
when she was 19 and Whitney was almost 17 in 1980 when they were both counselors at a summer camp
in East Orange, New Jersey. She told her, I'm going to look out for you. And she did that for
the next 20 years of her life. As Whitney Houston became the huge superstar, she said, we wanted to
be together. And that meant just us.
Whitney ended the physical part of their relationship
early on soon after she signed a record deal with
Clive Davis at Arista. She broke the
news by giving her a
gift, a slate blue Bible one
day in 1982. She said, we shouldn't
be physical anymore because it would make our journey
even more difficult. She said, if people found out about
us, they would use this against us. And back
in the 80s, that's how it felt. So she said
I kept it safe. I found comfort in my
silence. I just wanted to record this show for
Wendy Williams was saying that for years
on the radio and catching a lot of heat
for it but she was telling the truth.
I guess you also don't want to out
people if that's not what
they want to do. Oh they're not ready right. Well she definitely was
outing people. That's what she does. Yeah cause Whitney
Houston's mother you know they were concerned about that
as well, just because Whitney's mom
was so heavy into the church. She's a
gospel singer. So there was a lot of
reasons why they felt like they had to keep that under wraps.
Oh, no, yeah. I'm with you. I just think it's wild
that, you know, she was catching heat for saying
that, because it just makes me think that, damn,
some of you rapper secrets are going to come out soon enough, too.
Mm-hmm. Now, our girl,
Latham Thomas, right?
Latham!
From Mama Glow.
She actually just texted me and she said she had strong feelings about the conversation we were having about T.I.
and about his daughter Deja.
She said that is a violation of her bodily autonomy.
T.I. is wrong, as well as a doctor coercing her to fill out a form to allow her father access to non-medical information is illegal.
And it's unethical to share that information with a parent.
She has unalienable rights to autonomy over her own body.
This is how they treated us during chattel slavery,
examined our bodies without our consent.
That was her message that she wanted me to read on the air.
Who said she was coerced, though?
Where are we coming to these conclusions that she was coerced to do that?
Coerced?
Just reading that message that she sent.
Okay, so now let's talk about
Wendy Williams and Charlamagne. They have finally
reunited.
I know you had said you were going to reach out
to an olive branch out to her
and Wendy Williams had said that you actually asked her
to go to dinner to have a sit down
while you guys finally hooked up.
You think she lied about that?
She put Wendy's sauce on it. That's not what happened, but continue. Well, Wendy also talked about you down while you guys finally hooked up and here's you think she lied about that yeah well she put
wendy sauce on it that's not what happened but continue well wendy also talked about you on her
show yesterday um i had a very nice afternoon with a long time friend of mine charlamagne
oh let me tell you something honey i can only take Charlamagne in small doses.
True.
Because the banter of the back and forth and knowing each other for so many years.
You know, I met him when he was still a DJ in down south.
And I brought him to New York.
I said, look, you sit next to me and you make with that funny.
And the rest is history.
But small doses, you know what I mean?
Right.
Like, he is a mess.
True.
He made me cry. True. He made me cry.
True.
He teared up.
Wrong.
You teared up.
We're talking about people and situations.
You teared up.
True.
Talked about who's the donkey of the day.
Fact.
Or the year.
Fact.
Or of life.
Doodoo Brown.
Let me ask you a question.
You cry?
No.
She definitely cried.
You teared?
No.
She said you teared.
That did not happen.
You teared?
What'd you teared about?
Why do you deny everything? Who denied everything? He was tearing up. You teared? No. She said you teared. That did not happen. You teared? What'd you tear about? Why you deny everything?
Who denied everything?
He was tearing up.
You reached out.
Listen, literally, literally, you got on sweatpants.
Don't hug me with sweatpants on.
Lean in a little bit.
Put a little pelvic on my shoulder.
Ooh.
Listen, literally, literally the whole conversation is me saying something to Wendy and her telling
me to shut the F up, Charlamagne.
That's our whole conversation.
I tell her the truth about something and she knows I'm right and she'll tell me shut the F up.
That's our relationship.
Always has been and probably always will be.
When did you cry?
I did not cry.
He's crying now.
Not at all.
I will say, though, that picture she posted of us, that wasn't a real picture.
That was actually me holding up one of her wigs.
I saw people saying that online and y'all were absolutely correct.
You don't see none of her limbs or nothing in the picture.
That's just hair.
So where were you when you had a wig?
Wendy keeps wigs on her all the time.
It looked like you were crying in that picture.
She has people that carry her wigs around.
That's dope.
You didn't know that?
Yeah, she keeps three different wigs with her at all times.
Wow.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
I think that's dope.
That's rich people stuff.
All right. You're going to have to start doing that soon. I got no damn fake hair, man. I your rumor report. I think that's dope. That's rich people stuff. Mm-hmm.
All right.
Well, we're going to have to start doing that soon. I ain't got no damn fake hair, man.
I knew it was going to say that.
I knew that's where it was going.
My hair's real, damn it.
You're going to have to start carrying around different wigs soon.
Shut up.
That's a different wig today than the one you've been wearing all week.
Yo, it's my hair.
It is.
It's more even.
Because I made that comment to you the other day.
I told you that it looked like you had a little small gumby.
Like, the plugs was off a little bit. But now the plugs are a little bit more even. The plugs are straight now. It's my real hair, man. What did you do to it yesterday? other day. I told you that it looked like you had a little small Gumby. Like the plugs was off a little bit.
But now the plugs are a little bit more even.
It's my real hair, man.
What did you do to it yesterday?
Be honest.
I just got a haircut.
That's it.
Oh, he's a liar.
I just got a haircut.
We go to the same barber shop.
Ask when you go.
Who are you giving your donkey to, man?
You know, Florida needs to come to the front of the congregation this morning.
We'd like to have a word with them.
All right.
We'll get to that next.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Make sure you tell them to watch out for Florida, man.
The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.
Yes, you are a donkey.
A Florida man attacked
an ATM for a very strange reason.
It gave him too much money.
Florida man is arrested after deputies say
he rigged the door to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife.
Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a flamingo.
Put the breakfast club, bitchy.
Donkey of the day with Charlemagne the guy.
I don't know why y'all keep letting him get y'all like this.
Yes, donkey of the day for Thursday, November 7th goes to two people, okay?
A Florida man named Rodney Jermaine Joyner
and another Florida person who I don't know their name, but we will get to them later, okay? A Florida man named Rodney Jermaine Joyner and another Florida person who I don't know their name, but we will get to
them later, okay? Rodney
is from the state we love
called Florida. What does your Uncle Sharla
always say about
Florida, man? The craziest people
in America come from the Bronx and all of
Florida. And not a week goes by that we are not
reminded of this fact. Now, Rodney is 36
years old, and he was arrested in connection to
a robbery that happened on the
campus of Florida State University. Drop on the clues
box for Florida State. What's happening, Seminoles?
Okay. Now, what had happened was
a student was stabbed in the back of the head during
a robbery, and the FSU Police
Department said that it was
Rodney who did it. Now, the victim told police he
gave in because he saw the knife, so he
let Rodney take his phone from his pocket
and gave him the password.
The victim said Joyner freaked out a little bit
after he told him he needed help.
A compassionate criminal, okay?
And he said Rodney freaked out
when he saw the blood coming from the back of his head.
Why so much compassion from this criminal?
And the victim told police that he told Rodney
his mother died three weeks ago
so he could take whatever he wanted. And that also made Rodney his mother died three weeks ago so he could take whatever he wanted
and that also
made Rodney feel bad. Very
interesting, right? All of this compassion
coming from Rodney. I need you all
to pay attention to how Rodney goes
in and out of his criminal behavior, okay?
How this compassion comes in and out because
this is important because Rodney says
that there was a reason he was doing
this robbery in the first place.
Things weren't necessarily in his control.
Really pay attention to this news report.
Let's go to WCTV CBS 6 for the report, please.
Covering Florida State now, President John Thrasher saying this afternoon he has full confidence in the university's police department after a student was robbed and attacked at 9th Point.
This is the fourth incident in just about four weeks. FSU
police say Rodney Joyner sat in a car near Gilchrist Hall early Monday morning. After about
20 minutes, they say he got out, eventually running and tackling a student from behind.
Officers say Joyner held him down with a knife, eventually leaving the student bleeding with a
gash in the back of his head. Police say Joyner stole the victim's
phone. Additionally, Rodney Jermaine Joyner told police he believed a Haitian girl he had been
seeing placed a voodoo curse on him, causing him to act strange and possibly hurt the victim.
FSU Police Chief Terry Brown says the university investing seven million dollars into campus
safety enhancements over the past five years.
She says things like increased patrols, cameras on campus,
and license plate readers helped officers nab Joyner Monday.
Okay, okay.
Remember I told you in the beginning that it was two people getting donkey of the day.
We already know Rodney Jermaine Joyner.
That's obvious, okay?
It's obvious.
He stabbed a poor college student in the back of the head and robbed him for just the phone.
All right?
But this part of the news story that Joe Bartlett from WOR said is very important.
Let's hear it.
Additionally, Rodney Jermaine Joyner told police he believed a Haitian girl he had been seeing
placed a voodoo curse on him, causing him to act strange and possibly hurt the victim.
Can't no campus security stop that Haitian voodoo, all right?
To the sweet, sweet Haitian sister who has a chicken bone buried with Rodney's hair on it,
please let him go, all right?
Please, somebody wash Rodney's head.
Remove the negative magic, okay?
This man needs a spiritual bath because I have absolutely no reason not to believe him
when he says a Haitian woman put that voodoo on him, all right?
But you have to tone the spell down because it's causing him to hurt innocent people.
Now, question for all my Haitian women, serious question.
If you take a piece of DJ Envy's hair plug, right, and you put a spell on it,
who gets hit with that whammy?
Because you wouldn't want to waste a good spell on an innocent person, right?
Well, that's what you're doing with Rodney Jermaine Joyner.
If he deserves some voodoo, understandable.
That's y'all business.
But we don't need any innocent people harmed during this process.
So please, sister, free Rodney from that curse.
I'll remix it so only he is affected.
Okay, now, I started to say please give Rodney Jermaine Joyner
and the young woman in Florida
who put voodoo on him
the sweet sounds
and the hammer tones,
but I'm going to remove
the young Haitian woman
in Florida
from out of this donkey.
I'm just giving some words
of encouragement
to let her know
to remix her spell
and put it on just Rodney.
Okay, so please
give Rodney Jermaine Joyner
the sweet sounds
and the hammer tones.
Oh, now you are
the donkey of the day.
You are the donkey of the day.
Yeehaw.
And I'm serious.
My Haitian sisters, hit me up on social media,
at C to God, C-T-H-A-G-O-D on Twitter and Instagram.
I really want to know, if you take a piece of DJ Envy's hair plug,
if you take a piece of a woman's wig or a woman's weave,
and you put that Haitian voodoo on it, who would the magic affect?
Well, I would like to know.
It would affect me because it's my real hair.
No, it's not.
I just want to put that out there.
I would affect me because it's my real hair.
I don't know about the wigs and everything else that you talk
about, but if you take DJ Envy's hair,
it would affect DJ Envy.
Rashawn Casey. That's me. That's my hair.
Rashawn Casey and DJ Envy are actually two different people.
Stop. Alright. Stop.
Alright. Well, that donkey today was interesting.

We got Ryan on the line.
Ryan, good morning.
Good morning.
Hey, brother.
What's your question for Yeezy?
Hey, man.
My wife's birthday is next month,
December the 17th,
and I really want to surprise her,
but my schedule is always the same,
so I can't change anything without her knowing.
You mean, you can't.
Can you take a vacation from work?
Well, it's more so about my wife.
She's a dancer.
She teaches field score and you can class.
So what I wanted to do is to host an event where she, all those dancers come out
and actually perform some of her work for her as a surprise.
That'd be dope.
That's dope.
It's hard to orchestrate that when if I, you know, get off schedule by 30 minutes,
she's like, hey, I noticed you were 30 minutes off today.
So what you do is you act like you're going to do something else so that she knows that,
you know, you are leaving early because y'all are supposed to go do something.
And then you take her there instead.
Okay. What about the planning of it?
There's a lot of planning.
I'm trying to figure out how to get...
Is there anybody that you're close to that can help you plan it,
that knows her and knows all the dancers and all of that?
No, I'm thinking about reaching out to one of the dancers.
I don't actually know them personally because most of them are women.
But, you know, they know me because I do the videography piece.
Yeah, I think you should actually get their involvement, too.
That'll help you a lot, and she'll appreciate that.
Sometimes when people try to plan things, like I know when my boyfriend surprises me,
he has to go through my friends a lot, and that's what makes things a lot easier to do.
So just go through some of the dancers.
Figure out who you think would be
good at organizing get a couple of them
and you guys can communicate just about
that and getting the surprise together
and then you tell her you're taking her somewhere
else and then that day it's actually
ends up being that and she'll be completely
thrown off
I want to shout my wife out
are you sure
because now she's going to know about the surprise
if you shout her out right now.
No.
See, I work in a truck, so I listen all day.
She don't listen unless I tell her to.
Okay.
She's not that type of person I listen to,
so she feels like she's too busy.
All right, well, shout her out.
All right.
I want to thank my beautiful wife for all she's too busy. All right, let's shout her out. All right, I want to thank
my beautiful wife
for all she's done for me.
And Soul Beauty
is the dance thing.
You can look her up
on Instagram
under xd underscore joe.
All right,
and y'all don't go
and ruin the surprise
if you look her up
on Instagram.
I saw yesterday
on Instagram,
everybody was under
Stove's comments, Big Stove,
and leaving comments for him.
Just don't ruin the surprise.
Alright, good luck, brother.
Thank you, Yee.
Alright, Ask Yee.
800-585-1051. If you need
relationship advice, hit Yee up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Need relationship advice?
Need personal advice?
Just need real advice.
Call up now for Ask Ye.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We're in the middle of Ask Ye.
Hello, who's this?
Ivy.
Hey, Ivy.
What's your question for Ye?
Hi.
So this is, I'm calling for part two of yesterday's question with a little cheating shabangle.
Yeah.
Well, give them an update.
Before you talk, give them an update.
What happened yesterday for people who didn't tune in?
So yesterday your boyfriend called, right?
And he says that he cheated on you and you guys are still haven't gotten past that.
And then you cheated on him.
Correct.
Kind of.
Okay.
Kind of.
Uh-oh.
Kind of.
So first I want to say
we weren't arguing yesterday, because you guys
thought we were arguing. He initially was calling for
a Popeye's chicken sandwich, but John
didn't fix the segment by the time
he got in. So, I was on FaceTime
and he was like, oh my God, what should I ask? I'm like, alright,
let's ask about the cheating scandal. So,
we don't, like, we
got past it to a certain point.
Like, I would say first of all, it did not go the way that he said it would.
Okay.
Okay, tell me.
I know it didn't.
It was a continuous cheating thing.
Okay?
We're going to start off with that.
Okay.
Basically, when I, like, had enough, I did what I did.
And with him, I had to find out through his phone or something like that.
But with me, I came out and I told him because I was like, you him, I had to find out through his phone or something like that. But with me,
I came out and I told him because I was like, you know, I felt
that's it. I felt all different types of emotions
that I never felt before because it was my first time
cheating on somebody. So then I told
him and I'm like, you know, I'm really
sorry. Like, I know that
it was playing tricks on me because
it's like, well, I'm not sorry for cheating on
somebody that cheats on me.
But I'm like, I brought it to him.
And like, he didn't forgive me.
He said he did, but he didn't.
He brings it up a lot, you know?
And we don't really argue.
We show it like a shade.
Like, oh, you out there with a girl.
Oh, you out there with a guy like that.
But those digs still hurt, right?
Because I'm sure it annoys you when he says it to you.
And when you say it to him, there's a little truth in it, too.
Yeah, I know. It's true that most times he say it.
But I know it's like, you know,
we try to say it in a funny way to get past
it. It's never funny.
Right.
Y'all got to stop with that
particular joke with each other
because it can get mean.
So, yeah, I get
what you're saying.
And here's the thing.
Of course, cheating is never right.
He also probably feels like you guys are kind of even now.
And so he thinks, okay, I did it and now you did it.
So now we're even.
And I'm sure he brings it up because he probably feels guilty about what he did as well.
So maybe he feels like this justifies him, which it doesn't, right? Because I know I'm sure you regret having done that at all.
And that's why you even told him. Because it didn't make you feel
any better. No, it did not.
So, the truth is,
have you forgiven him? Because I know I asked you that
yesterday and you couldn't really answer it.
So, to a certain extent
I've forgiven him because I've tried to forgive him
but it's like when a situation is
continuous, it's like you weren't really sorry.
Like, it's not like, it was
just this one time he was staying in Connecticut.
It was multiple times.
Okay, but you have decided to stay with him?
In a way, you could say.
You guys are together, right?
Yeah.
Okay, so you can't hold on to what happened in the past.
If you've made the decision that I'm still going to try to work this out with you,
do you believe him now?
Do you think he's cheating now?
Yes, that's why we can't move forward.
Alright, well then that's the real issue.
It's not necessarily just what happened
in the past that you've decided to move
forward with him. It's that you still think
he's cheating. Why do you think he's cheating now?
Because, look, so you tell me
if I'm wrong for feeling this way, right?
If I get in the car with you, you put your phone on
do not disturb, face it down. Okay, that's
like what? Strike two is every time when he's on the phone with you, you put your phone on, do not disturb. They did that. Okay. That's like what?
Take two is every time, like when he's on the phone with his friends, he has to like,
you know, say something specific to me so they can know who he's on the phone with.
It's like certain things, like little things like that.
I just, it's like.
Those are triggers.
Those are triggers for you.
So it makes me feel like I don't. Yeah.
All right.
So what you guys need to do is set up some, you need to set up some parameters, OK, for both of you.
And you need to listen to what he has to say.
He should listen to what you have to say.
And if he can achieve those things, then you guys should agree that it's time to move forward.
If he can't do those things that will make you comfortable, then that's not the person for you.
I would tell him it would make me feel comfortable if when we get in the car, you don't put your phone on.
Do not disturb anymore.
I understand letting people know that you're with somebody
and so he won't do it?
He was like, okay, he was like,
alright, I see what you mean. And then like,
you know, he acknowledges the things that I say
as me not being delusional, but then
he'll continue to do those things.
Yeah, and that's the thing, you know, you have to show
that your behavior is different now
and that you're working towards something. And if he can't
hit those goals, then I would feel like he doesn't really want to be with me
because he has to make an effort.
He cheated.
Now he's trying to get back together with you.
You cheated.
And I'm sure there's things that he wants you to do so he feels more comfortable.
And you have to be open to that as well.
But if you guys can't respect each other enough to really work towards that,
then I don't see where this is going to go.
Because how can you trust and forgive somebody if they're not doing the things
that will help you trust and forgive them?
Right.
We'll be all
together because we need some counseling.
Yeah, absolutely. You guys
do. That's what it seems like.
So I definitely recommend if that's
something you're very serious about, then yes, y'all
need some couples counseling. However,
I do feel like when somebody cheats
and gets caught, whatever you have to do
to make that person feel comfortable, if you want to be with them
you just have to do it. Right.
Alright, well I wish you luck. Thank you.
Thank you Ivy for checking back
in with us after yesterday.
Alright.
Ask Yee, 800-585-1051
if you need relationship advice
or any type of advice, you can call Yee.
Now we got rumors on the way? Yes, let's talk about
Nicki Minaj. Now people were upset about a tweet
that she posted yesterday that has to do with
press. Alright, we'll get into that next.
Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk
Make-A-Wish Foundation.
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.
Yes, so do you have any idea what celebrity has granted the most Make-A-Wish Foundation wishes?
This person granted over 600 of them.
I don't even know what that means.
What does that mean?
I'm not sure who.
You don't know what Make-A-Wish is?
I know what Make-A-Wish Foundation is, but what does it mean
to make a wish to the Make-A-Wish Foundation?
When you become a wish grantor, you actually
go to the hospital and you grant the wishes
for the kids. So for celebrities, a lot of times...
Oh, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
Yeah, so basically you're giving
donations, charity. And themselves.
It's not just donations, you show up. So that's a big deal.
So if a kid is like,
oh, I've always wanted to meet
James Harden
and he shows up to the hospital
that you're a wish,
you've granted that wish.
Correct.
So it is a time-consuming thing
but it's a crazy thing
because, you know,
imagine being a critically ill child
and then the biggest celebrity
that you've ever wanted to meet
or something you've always wanted
happens for you.
That's something
that gives kids hope
and it brings a smile
to their face.
So who's the biggest one?
John Cena.
Oh, that's cool.
The Rock.
No, not the Rock.
He's got a rock.
Yeah, yeah.
You just called him
the Rock.
No, man.
John Cena's not the
Rock.
That's two different
people.
They don't look alike.
No, they don't all
look alike.
Yes, they do.
The Rock is like
Samoan in something.
And John Cena's a
white man.
They're all restless.
We're trying to do a
positive story.
You just ruined it. Ruined it. Okay. You agreed. I said, yeah, the Rock. You're trying to do a positive story. You just ruined it.
Ruined it.
Okay.
You agreed.
I said, they're the Rockies.
You said, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You thought it so too.
Oh, my God.
I didn't even know what you were saying.
I was trying to get on with the story.
Sorry, go ahead.
Now, John Cena actually credits WWE for getting him involved in the first place.
And so he said he went from a scrawny kid who was bullied to a record-breaking 16-time WWE world champion to a bona fide movie star.
And now he's the person that has granted more than 600 kids wishes.
He discovered it when he was a rookie in the WWE back in 2002.
He said, my first Make-A-Wish, I was kind of shuffled.
It wasn't for me.
I think the person wanted to meet another superstar.
But the WWE does a great job of like, hey, there's a Make-A-Wish kid in this room.
Can you come say hello?
So a bunch of people are shuttled in to say hello to a young fan.
So he said he got shuttled in.
And, you know, he started talking about Make-A-Wish.
And then he realized it was one of the coolest things.
He said, we've all experienced the joy of giving a gift for the holidays where you just nail it.
That's the same gift I get in giving back to people's lives and being able to give them wonderful emotional moments.
That's dope that he does that.
Yeah, I think it's. I work with Make-A-Wish
too, so I thought that was an amazing story, and I didn't
know he was the one that does it the most
out of anybody, so shout out to
John Cena. Yeah, I don't watch wrestling, but I know
the kids love wrestling, so I know that's
always a big deal. He also acts,
yeah, he also acts, so people know him from that as well.
Remember the whole Tony Ayo
dance? That? That was
John Cena.
All right, now let's talk about Nicki Minaj and some controversy with that.
She had posted on Twitter, she said,
What the white people post is greater than the blacks only post a few seconds where I raise my voice to push their narrative.
And then she promoted that Queen Radio was coming back.
So she has since deleted that tweet.
And, you know, she basically is saying that she feels like black media
just glorifies her most unflattering moments
and they take that one soundbite
that makes her look bad.
And, you know, I don't think
that just black people do that, though.
I think that happens in media in general.
A lot of people do that.
I mean, that's what this whole tabloid media
has been based on.
That's what TMZ was founded on.
That's what Perez Hilton was founded on.
Like, they don't report good stories.
They just don't. They report
the negative. Think about back in the day when all of them
white girls were getting caught with no panties on,
popping out of cars from paparazzi.
That was a big thing. They're always going to take
the most unflattering, messy stuff and put it
front page news. If it bleeds, it leads.
That's always been the news way.
Ray J is trying to get Suge Knight
released from prison.
He's hoping to get him a pardon.
So they say he's been in secret talks with the Trump administration in an attempt to get that pardon for Suge Knight,
who's serving a 28-year prison sentence for murder.
We'll see if that can happen.
Some people say he's taking that cue from Kim Kardashian and seeing what she's using her celebrity for as far as getting people out.
And he's hoping to get Suge Knight out of jail.
I'm telling you right now, Kim Kardashian blocking all that.
Kim Kardashian like, look, Donald Trump, it's this guy named Ray J.
He's going to be calling you.
He might offer you a bunch of scooty bikes for the White House.
He's going to ask you about getting some people out.
Don't listen to him. He's a bad guy.
Don't answer that call.
Now, I know you all love to hear some new Drake,
so Drake is now on a remix from this Brazilian artist, Kevin O'Chris.
It's a song called Ela é... I don't even want to say it wrong.
Do Tipo.
But anyway, that's the song.
And I know y'all want to hear a little bit of Drake.
So let's do it.
First time I saw you, I wasn't thinking of you and I.
I was just thinking of I.
First time we both was at my place.
It was a couple years late, but it was fate. And I think you feel good about it. Thank you. just be mine. Try. You won't even try. It's simple.
It's simple.
Fight or run up and fight.
Don't be no fight.
So Drake was in Brazil. He headlined their
Rock in Rio festival over the summer.
So I'm sure he got inspired
and met a lot of people while he was there. So there you go.
I'm Angela Yee.
I'm just never going to be into Drake singing. You know what I'm saying?
I just think he's such a phenomenal rapper.
I don't knock him for it, though, because if you ever go to one of his shows,
which I've been to before, you see why he does it.
Like, that's what makes him the big, huge artist he is.
But I'm just never going to be into it.
It just really sounds like somebody driving with the windshield wipers going real slow,
and it's not even raining.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
I'm telling you, if you play that acapella, dogs will start howling.
Stop it.
I promise you. No, they won't. I promise you. All right. Thank you for that is your rumor report. I'm telling you, if you play that acapella, dogs will start hollering. Stop it. I promise you.
No, they won't.
I promise you.
All right, thank you for that, y'all.
Thank you for the rumors.
Now, let me say happy birthday to my guy, Mother Leone.
She lives out in Atlanta.
She listens every morning.
Happy birthday, Mama.
And everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next.
Get your request in right now.
Revolt, we'll see you tomorrow.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Yes, sir.
Primo, DJ Premier.
Welcome, son.
Yes, yes.
Welcome back.
Thanks for having me again.
Yes, sir.
New Gangstar album.
Yeah.
One of the best yet.
Yes.
You know, last time I came, you asked me, was there anything?
And I was like, uh, no.
Yeah.
So you lied.
Yeah.
You was being a politician. Yeah, I was being a politician. Yeah, you definitely lied. Yeah, I didn't lie. I was like, uh, no. Yeah. So you lied. You was being a politician.
Yeah, I was being a politician.
You definitely lied.
Yeah, I didn't lie.
I just did not tell the truth.
Why didn't you?
We've used that line a lot of times on our women.
I did not lie.
I just did not tell the truth.
There you go.
But why didn't you not tell the truth then?
Because at that time, I didn't know where the circumstance was going to end up because
they were being in the hands of someone else,
which was his business partner before he passed away.
And with all the controversy going on and whatnot, it was like, you know what?
Until you have things in order to where you can make your next move,
you've got to be silent until you pull your own trigger.
Now, you actually bought his verses and songs from the old business partner?
Yes.
How did that go about?
Because y'all were a team.
I'm sure you had stuff.
How did he own that and not the family?
Exactly.
We had to go to court.
His family took him to court.
So was he receptive when you were trying to buy these records, or was it a problem at first?
No, my manager, Ian Schwartzman, big up to him.
He was the one that...
What up, Ian?
Yeah, Ian was like, look, I don't have an emotional attachment to this like you do,
so let me see if I can communicate, because he knew I didn't want to.
So how much did it cost and how much time did it take to actually touch the phone?
It took 10 years, right?
It was a 10-year legal battle, right?
No, the legal battle started right after he passed, which was nine years ago.
And it took seven years for me to get the music.
Wow.
And you bought it from the business partner, not the family.
Right.
No, the family and I are all joined together still.
We have Gangstar Enterprises.
So it's Guru's son, who's 19.
He was nine when he passed.
Shout out to KC.
His name is Keith Elam as well.
And so it's Keith, his son, Justin, Trish, Guru's son's mother, and myself.
What made Guru even sign his vocals over to that guy, though?
Who knows?
Well, how do we know that he really did that?
That's what I'm saying.
That's what they're saying.
They don't know if it's true that maybe he just forged it allegedly.
I don't think he did.
Well, in the courts, the documents showed that there was forgery
and that he even lied to the oath and said that there's no music at all.
And I'm telling his sister, his sister kept stressing me,
we need to do a movie about y'all's life because it's so crazy.
I'm like, Trish, I think the first thing we need to do is focus on getting the music.
She's like, there's no way you're going to get it.
And she said, you know, there's no way you're going to get it.
And I was like, I can feel it in my soul that I am.
How did y'all finally get it, though?
How did he just say, you know what, I'm going to send it to y'all?
Ian approached his attorney
and said that, you know,
suppose
there's some music, because
later on in court, he finally said
he did have some, but now it's about
how do we get it to me?
So he's like, suppose
a fee of some
sort was given to get them.
The lawyer was like, it's a possibility.
So I said, well, first thing I need to do is hear them to make sure they're not rhymes.
I heard because I have a very good DJ memory.
And then when it got to the point where I started going through needing to hear them,
he brought me a whole bunch of snippets.
Maybe like a month passed, he came back and let me hear the full version.
Listened to the full versions, and already I'm sitting there getting goosebumps.
Even with the snippets, I remember my lawyer was there too,
to watch his lawyers and my lawyers,
so everybody watches each other to make sure no funny business.
So you can't bop your head too hard.
I didn't bop my head at all.
I wanted to go like, I know what I can do to this.
But I was just like, and he's sitting next to me, the attorney, with his laptop.
So I'm just like, all right, let me hear the next one.
Once he brought it the second time, now I'm just like, man, ooh.
So boom, when it got to that point, I was like, yeah, let's do it.
And we went back and forth with the numbers.
I know what I should pay, and I know what I'm willing to pay
because the first number, I'm like, man, keep it.
It's not that I have seven albums.
You got to be 20 million.
You got to be a high number.
I have seven albums with a great career with Guru.
And so with that, once we came to the number I was cool with,
then the transaction happened where I got a hard drive of everything.
I said, I don't want any other music.
I don't want anything but just his vocals.
Everything else I don't need.
I've produced every gang song album.
I don't need no help.
What project was he working on that he had that many vocals?
Well, Guru reminds me of Sean Price, rest in peace.
Sean Price, you know, there's a lot of Sean Price records popping up now.
When I even talked to his wife, Charlotte Bernadette, she was like, man, there's people still going, oh, I got a new Sean Price record.
And they're not even checking with her for clearance.
And just out of respect for Guru and the estate, even that, it's like,
there's people,
oh yeah,
I got Guru.
I would never do
something like that
where I don't check
to make sure
I get a thumbs up
before anything's released
with somebody
that passed away.
Even with Tupac,
all that stuff,
and we all knew each other.
I would never do that.
I have a Tupac record
that is Shout to Noble
and Money B
from Digital Underground.
They helped me get
a Tupac verse
that I haven't released.
And same thing,
I wanted to make sure I get the proper thumbs up,
and they went to a Finney, and she was like, cool, it's yours.
The groove is always working.
Oh, yeah.
He loved to rhyme, man.
That's why I kept saying I know there's a bunch of stuff.
And then next thing you know, once I started getting them,
I didn't plan on a Gangsta album yet.
I just said, let me just plan on a Gangsta album yet.
I just said, let me just see if I can get into it.
All right, we got more with Premier.
When we come back, let's do a Gangsta mini mix.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
DJ Premier is here.
Charlamagne?
What about Guru?
Why weren't you and Guru working together? He left a note, which is when we started seeing something weird,
where he said, I literally bought D&D after they closed down.
We were still finishing our owner's album.
And I said, hey, man, I'm taking over the studio.
This is where I'm going to fix this up.
I'm going to update this.
We're going to move them. But the day I remember he came with Dude,
and he said, I showed him what I'm going to do to renovate some things.
Next thing you know, I get an email saying,
hey, man, we can still do the album, but I'm not doing it there.
He's like, I'm not doing it there.
I hate this place.
I never even liked D&D.
I'm like, wait a minute.
Something is going on.
We can tell where the
weirdness is coming from.
We're just like, alright, well.
And I don't mind recording elsewhere.
He said, you can mix it
there, but I will never step foot in that place
again. It went from regular little hanging out,
smoking a blunt, chilling, to
f*** you. And this is like, okay. If it's f*** you hanging out, smoking a blunt, chilling, to fuck you. And it's just like, okay.
Then if it's fuck you, all right, cool.
And I figured that we've had a lot of fuck yous through our whole careers.
So I'm used to that.
So I'm just like, all right, maybe he's going through something.
Fuck it.
And then another year passed.
Another year passed.
It was to where we were like, oh, damn, they're performing at SOB tonight.
I'm going there.
I want to find out what the fuck's going on.
All of us are going.
The whole team, we're like, yeah, we're going because we're all like,
everybody is just all of a sudden cut off.
Family, homies, all that stuff.
I want to switch gears for a second before you get out of here
because I know you're one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time.
I saw Elliot Wilson post this, and I wanted to get your opinion on it.
It was a tweet. It wasn't opinion on it. It was a tweet.
No, I made a post.
Well, no, it wasn't about Gangsta.
It was a tweet that somebody tweeted out,
and it said,
Puff has the greatest ear in music,
not hip-hop, music history.
What do you think?
The greatest ear in music history?
In music history.
Hmm.
I disagree, but you're the producer.
You better put me in there Better put me in there
I think there's a lot of people
In hip hop
That have better ears
Yeah and I'm not the greatest
But definitely put me in there
As one of the greatest
But did he say one of
Or the
No he said the
He said Puff has the greatest
Air in music
Right
Not just hip hop
No I don't agree with that
I don't agree with that
You know
But he
You know
I've hung with Puff.
I remember, and I take it back to when I used to hold grudges,
which I don't anymore.
He wouldn't let me in one of his parties years ago.
And I was like, yeah.
And I was with Nice and Smooth.
So he wouldn't let me in.
And I'm like, I was like, f*** this party.
You know what I'm saying?
How did you get him back?
You had to charge him an arm and a leg.
No, but Greg, you know what? Whenever I charged what I charged, he always, f*** this party. You know what I'm saying? How did you get him back? You had to charge him an arm and a leg. No, but Greg, you know what?
Whenever I charged what I charged, he always paid it with no complaints.
And same thing with Big.
I said, Big, I did Unbelievable for five grand.
You blow up.
I want some big money.
And when I charged him for the next two, for Kicking the Door and Cracking Mammoths, he was like.
This was a long time ago.
I'm just curious.
How much did you charge Big for that?
For Kicking the Door. Cracking Mammoths and Kicking the Door. $35,000. And you know. I'm just curious. How much did you charge big for that? For kicking the door.
King Gregor Madness and kicking the door.
$35,000.
And you know.
A piece?
Each.
Okay.
Yeah.
And you know, back then it was $150,000.
Picasso was getting $150,000, $100,000.
For the dragon.
Absolutely.
Because that's why I offset my price.
I was like, damn, they're getting $150,000.
You know, I'm not going to say the names of everybody's money because I don't like counting people's chips,
but there was a lot of
$100,000 per
songs getting done on these
albums, and I was like, man, I could really
crack, I could rack up
if I do mine. Most of mine at that
time were 25, but for
big, I was like 35, and he was like,
no doubt. I think Puff had one of the
best formulas ever. Absolutely. You know, sampling was like 35, and he was like, no doubt. I think Puff had one of the best formulas ever. Absolutely.
You know, sampling everybody's music.
When it comes to ear, I think of
Premier, I think of Dr. Dre.
We talk about music, Quincy Jones.
Pharrell.
James Brown. I mean, Barry Gordy.
Come on, man.
No disrespect to Puff, but come on.
And Puff, like I said,
Puff's always been way ahead of
everybody with the
no, being in the no way before
everybody starts wearing this certain design and stuff.
He brought the Bentley out first
and all that type of stuff. It was
him, so you know what I'm saying.
Alright, now shout out to Premier for joining us.
You can pick up the new Gangstar album right
now streaming on Tidal and all that other good
stuff. Now, Charlamagne, you got a positive note?
Yes, this is my positive note.
The word of the day, kids.
Well, two words, actually, is sacred masculine.
I'm telling you, I'm reading this great book right now.
I'll tell you about it later,
and these are the conversations I'll be having
with my spiritual counselor.
But I just want you to go look up some sacred masculine
when you get a chance.
Do a little Google, all right?
But here's a nice little quote for you, okay? When the sacred masculine when you get a chance. Do a little Google, all right? But here's a nice little quote for you, okay?
When the sacred masculine is combined
with the sacred feminine or the divine feminine
inside each of us, we create the sacred marriage
of compassion and passion within ourselves.
Breakfast club, bitches!
You all finished or y'all done?
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.
