That was my remix, yo. We heard. And happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Woo-hoo! Are you doing something positive and informative for Martin Luther King Day? I'm coming back from New Orleans. Oh, okay. I was trying to get out to San Antonio, but there was no flight to get me there in time for their parade that they do out there. You was going to go to the parade?

Yep. Really? Sure would. It's a big parade they have every year in San Antonio. Is that the parade we went to and they put us on the back of a U's? No, it's not. Oh, okay.

Why would you disrespect Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday like that? No, remember we went on a parade and they put us like... Was that in San Antonio, Envy? Where was that? That's our newest market. Where was it?

All right. Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day, guys. Enjoy. Do something guys. Enjoy. Do something positive. You know, at one time, they didn't let schools off in my neighborhood, but I think they allowed the schools to take the day off now. That was a big thing in my neighborhood. They didn't allow the kids off, and all the African-American parents were like, no, we

want our kid to have off on Martin Luther King Day, so we actually took him off. Right. The symbolism of it. Come on now. Absolutely. Show some respect. Put some respect on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s name. Absolutely.

Now, today we have Little Duval. He's joining us this morning. Duval. And also Sparkle from Surviving R. Kelly. Yeah, Sparkle, straight out of Chicago. He's also a recording artist, so we'll kick it with her as well. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. When we come back, we have Get It Off Your Chest,

800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Wake up, wake 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. Hello, who's this? Michael Jackson from Jacksonville, Florida. That's your real name, Michael Jackson? That's my real name. I started this more than three times now. That's your real name, Michael Jackson? That's dope. I ain't mad at you. All right, get it off your chest, MJ. And you ain't do nothing wrong.

You just want to show love. There you go. Like what? Two what in a tree? Two birds. Two birds in a tree. Like what? Two what in a tree? Two birds. Two birds, man. Two birds in a tree. She doesn't want to be a bird, she said. That's funny.

But anyway, I love her. I love her. No one has ever loved me the way she does. Oh, that is so sweet. What you getting for Christmas, though? I can't tell you that. Oh, all right. Wow.

I mean, Christmas passed. Why can't you tell us? Hey, no, I can't tell you about all that. None of, I mean, Christmas passed. Why can't you tell us? Hey, no, I can't tell you about all that. I'm going to be off this. Damn. All right, man. Bye, man. Sounds like it was a D in a box.

Hello, who's this? Good morning. This is Brandy from Hampton, Virginia. How y'all doing? Hey, Q Hampton 757. Get it off your chest, mama. I'm just calling to tell y'all that I love the show. It's my second time getting through, and I tried for months.

I want to thank God for my life, my kids, my family. Things are beautiful. Things are looking up, and we will get it. We'll be fine. You are so right. I can't believe that she's been trying and only got through twice, and Trav gets through every day. Well, thank you for listening, Mama.

How did that happen? Because once again, Trav comes through the back door. Hello, who's this? Portia. Hey, Portia. Get it off your chest, mama. I want to get off my chest that I put on social media. I purchased something from the local Fashion Nova.

And they still ain't give me my credit. And I edit Cardi B. Whoa, stop. I need you to stop for a second. There's a local Fashion Nova? I thought Fashion Nova was only on social media. It's locally online. What. It's locally online. What?

It's locally online. How is it local? Okay, all right. And I know y'all seen my DM telling y'all to get it off my chest because I added Cardi B. And started helping me out with her street cred. And ain't getting nothing back. Well, Cardi B probably didn't see it because she has, like, you know,

thousands of people hitting her up. And Cardi B don't own Fashion Nova, boo. Why you adding Cardi B? You should be adding the people of Fashion Nova. I know, because she's sponsored. So what? She just felt like maybe Cardi B would have a little more clout.

My goodness. Well, sorry you didn't get your Fashion Nova dress, mama. Jamie! Hey, how are you guys doing this morning? Are we good, Jamie? Get it off your chest, mama. Okay, I want to apologize to my husband, Gordon. I tried to let him be blamed for what I did, and I just want to say that I was wrong.

We, of course, you guys know we live in Alaska, and when it gets negative, we have to plug our cars in. And there's an extension that you run from the car into the heating pole where you plug it in. Well, later on that night, he bought me a brand new car for our anniversary. That's nice. And he asked me later on that night, Jamie, where's the extension to the plug so I can plug the car in? And I told him, don't ask me. I don't know. I never unplugged the car.

Uh-oh. So what happened? When I backed out. Oh, my God. I must have lost never unplugged the car. Uh-oh. So what happened? I lost the plug when I backed out. Oh, my God. I must have lost it somewhere on the road. So you pulled over with the plug still in the car? The plug was in the car. Oh, my goodness.

Well, some people run off on the plug. You drove off on the plug, baby. Yeah, you pretty much did. It happens. I'm so sorry, Gordon. I love you. I'm so sorry. Is it hard to find a plug in Alaska?

I'm sure. No, it's not hard to find. They're just expensive. Okay. A plug is expensive. Okay. Yeah, but I mean, you got to find a plug with better prices, boo. There you go.

And now it's negative 47. So it's hard to get the plug. Listen, find you a plug with better prices. Maybe it's somebody in a neighboring state got it for cheaper. I doubt. Nobody plugs in their car but us. You know what you should do? You should call the local police station there and say, hey.

I'm missing the plug? Yeah, me and my plug, you know, I don't have the same connect no more. I'm looking for a new plug who got cheaper prices. You think you know anybody? Right, so I can go to jail because they'll think I'm crazy? You do sound a little crazy, though. But we love you, though. All right, I love you guys, too.

You have a great morning. All right, 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. Get it.

Pick up the mother, mother phone and dial. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. Say it with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So you better have the same energy. Get it off your chest, bro. Hey, man, I got to the last person.

Closure is a scam. Don't text them. Don't call them. Don't, oh, hey, how you doing? What is closure? Yeah, what's that? You know, you guys break up. You guys have a fight. Oh, like, let's talk about it., what's that? You know, you guys break up. You guys have a fight.

Oh, like, let's talk about it. Let's work it out. Nah. If you guys break up, that's it. Just drop it. Move on. What happened to you?

He's definitely hurt. Yeah, what happened to you? There's no such thing as closure. Pretty much. Been with the girl for a while. I heard cheating. And yeah, man, I'm done with that. So you wanted closure.

He's hurt. Nah, nah. She wanted closure. Well, yeah, I guess both of us wanted, man, I'm done with that. So you wanted closure? He's hurt. Nah, nah, she wanted closure. Well, yeah, I guess both of us wanted like a mutual goodbye, but it ain't happening. There's no such thing as closure, man. You're either with it or you're not. Clearly, y'all not no more.

I'm sorry you got your feelings hurt, boo. Yeah, I'm sorry, boo-boo. Well, congratulations to the guy. Congratulations to the guy that had sex with your girl, though. Oh, I stop it. Oh, man, yeah, it is what the guy that had sex with your girl, though. Oh, stop it. Oh, man. Yeah, it is what it is. Yeah, it's good, right?

Oh, he's hurt. She got good poo-poo. Somebody got to get it, even if it's not you. Well, I guess that's closure, then. And it's okay to be hurt, okay? It's fine. Nothing wrong with that. Yo, at that man on Twitter.

Tell him congratulations. He banging a good one, all right? Dammit, man. Just not good for you. You guys are not helping. Hello, who's this? Hello, it's Rachel. Hey, Rachel.

Get it off your chest. I was calling to say I am so blessed this morning. My new interactive children's book is climbing the charts on Amazon. Okay, congratulations. What's the name? What's the name of the book? It's called Amber's Magical Savings Box. It teaches kids about earning and saving money,

giving those millionaires a head start on their road to financial freedom. How is it interactive? That's dope. Well, the kids have to write their financial dreams and goals inside the back of the book. They follow Amber as she earns money for this magical toy she wants to buy, and they have to kind of like

walk along with her in this journey. Alright, that's good. Teaching kids the value of how to save and spend. What's the name of the book again? I'm going to look it up. Amber's Magical Savings Box. It's in honor of my niece, Amber. We lost at the age of three.

So it's for ages three to eight-year-olds, just to get them started. It's a few that can do savings journals in the back of it and everything. Okay, thank you, Mama. All right, I like that. Thank you. Hello, who's this? You know, it's your boy. We don't know you. Yeah, I don't know who this is. It's your boy, Franco, mama. All right, I like that. Thank you. Hello, who's this? You know, it's your boy. We don't know you.

Yeah, I don't know who this is. It's your boy, Franco, man. What y'all mean? Y'all forgot about me already? Hey, Franco. But I got to get it off my chest, man. You know, your boy's going in for a drug test today, and your boy might fail, so.

I can tell already. Oh, my goodness. Drop one of the clues bombs for my boy Franco. No, no Franco. Franco's high right now. Hold on, hold on, hold on. We gotta get serious. Are y'all N-word

retiring up there? Nah. Definitely not you. Listen, I love you. I love you. I love your I don't know what I would call it

but I love it. You know what I mean? I love the fact that you're just accepting the reality of the situation. Are you on probation? Nah, I'm not. You know what I mean? I love the fact that you're just accepting the reality of the situation. Are you on probation? No, I'm not. I'm just going to get fired.

What kind of drugs you do? Franco. Oh, now you're not our boy anymore? I'm going to be honest with you. I like Franco's attitude because that's my attitude in 2019. You just got to be willing to accept the things that you cannot control. And I mean, I guess you could control failing a drug test, but after you're high and you've already smoked,

hey, you can't. All right, that was Get It Off Your Chest, 800-585-1051. When we come back, Andrew Gillum will be joining us. So don't move. 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. We got a special guest in the building. My guy. Andrew Gillum. What's up, everybody? Welcome back.

Good morning, y'all, and happy new year. Good to see all three of y'all, plus the crew. And, you know, good to be back in New York, although I wish it was warmer. What are you doing here? We do, too. Yeah, I know it, right? Are we still counting votes out there? I mean, what's going on?

Man, shut up. I'm serious. They never said anything. They did. We talked about it. Yeah, what's going on? Man, shut up. I'm serious. They never said anything. They did. Eddie, you're so late. Yeah, that's done. That's done. He's here to announce his exploratory plan.

He's a boy running for president in 2020. Yeah, not a chance. Not a chance. No, no, no. No, that part is over, y'all. But the good news is, and I'm sure y'all probably followed this, but in Florida, 1.4 million former felons, returning citizens now have the right to vote. Amendment 4.

In the state of Florida, Amendment 4 did pass. And it can be, you know, it's not a panacea. It doesn't solve everything because we still got challenges out there. But can you imagine? I mean, I don't know if you saw any of the images, but if you all go back to the 8th of January and just look at some of the images coming out of Florida where you saw, you know, grown men dressed in their Sunday bests showing up at the supervisor's office to go register to vote. And these guys coming out saying, you know, I feel whole for the first time in my life. I feel seen or, you know, any of that. I

mean, it was Jacksonville, Orlando, Miami. I mean, Tampa, all over Tallahassee, all over the state of Florida, that kind of dignity being restored. The right to vote doesn't completely capture what was happening in that moment for so many of those folks. And so that's that's powerful. I'm looking forward to I'm looking forward to doing what I can do to help make sure that the folks recognize that this isn't just about the right to vote, but the power to organize. And it's so ironic that people that have the right to vote don't vote sometimes and don't understand the power in that. That's right. Andrew, do you think you lost the election fair and square? What I would take responsibility for is that in my state, when you win, you can't just win. You got to win big. And the failure to win big,

given the structural barriers that are there, right? The fact that you could have tens of thousands of voters who requested an absentee ballot, completed the absentee ballot, put it in the mail, likely put a stamp on it because all supervisors don't allow for free mail back of ballots. And then it got to the supervisor of elections office and somebody who is untrained,

who is not a signature expert, looked at a signature that was on that ballot and said, the W in this signature doesn't match the one from four years ago. And therefore, I'm going to invalidate your entire ballot. Tens of thousands. A study was, it's crazy. But let me tell you, more crazy is that in 2017, the University of Florida produced a study

that showed in Florida, for ballots that are rejected over signature, 7 out of 10 are people of color. Wow, that's insane. 7 out of 10. But I don't think anybody's signature is the same. I know my signature is not the same from 4 or 5 years ago. Come on. Come on, man. I've been elected.

I was elected almost 15 years and assigned God knows how many documents. And I can tell you right now that my signature was never the same, you know, completely from year to year on those things that evolved. But but that's just one example. One example, take, you know, another of, you know, six, seven thousand ballots being stuck in a post office ballots that were completed, mailed on time, postmarked on time, but didn't get counted because they didn't arrive by Election Day. In spite of the fact that there were recounts still did not get counted because they wouldn't count it because it didn't show up at the Supervisor of Elections office by Election Day through no fault of the voter, him or herself. That's voter suppression though, right? Oh, it's real voter suppression. I mean, as I tried to talk to people post the election, that voter suppression has evolved

from fire hoses and dogs and barricades in front of a voting booth. It is much more sophisticated. We saw it in Georgia. Georgia was, you know, in more overt ways. But in Florida, the reason why it didn't look so controversial is because it's the law in my state. What are some solutions moving forward? Well, we got to we got to change. I mean,

I understand that I ran under the rules that existed. Right. And so I try not to go back and, you know, complain in that way. But what I will tell you, we have got to update the election system. Why is it that you can reject somebody over signature? We have got to revise and relook at the signature law in my state. If you complete your ballot and it is postmarked by election day, that ballot ought to be counted. Period. Enough said. We had to go to court to get precincts on college campuses. It ought to be counted. Period. Nuff said. We had to go to court to get precincts

on college campuses. It ought to be automatic. Why would we make it harder for a concentrated group of people who spend the majority of their day in a singular place that you got to fight to have them get access to the ballot box? We got to change that. Alright, we have more with Andrew

Gillum when we come back. Don't move. 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. We have Andrew Gillum in the building. Charlamagne? You know, you're a very classy

guy, Angie, but in your gut, do you know you won? My mama says I won. Okay, okay, okay. All right. Listen, I told my mom, I was like, you can't say that outside of here I won. Okay, okay, okay. All right. Okay. Listen, I told my mom, I was like, you can't say that outside of here. But she said, baby, I don't care what they say. You won this thing.

I'm like, I am. But there are some wins when you think about it, right? Because now you're on this really international stage of people that are like, Andrew Gillum should run for president. And there's a lot of things that can be done with the attention that people have on you now just from this election, because it was something that nationally everybody was paying attention to. And maybe people that hadn't heard you speak before are now more aware of you and your policies. No, I mean, so first of all, my faith teaches me to have to see the glass half full.

Right. Regardless of, you know, regardless of, you know, the turmoil I kind of put myself through following the election. But when you know better, you're supposed to do better. What I know better now is that and I've known it before, but now I've got to take some responsibility for doing this work myself, is that you just can't keep showing up in communities that have felt like this process hasn't worked for them ever. They haven't seen it work for them ever. I don't want anybody to walk away thinking that their vote doesn't matter, that it doesn't, this process doesn't matter. Like that's not what the lesson is from this.

The lesson is, is that every vote matters. And you got to change this thing for yourself. I can't do it for you. My supporters, the people who funded it, they can't do it. You got to do that for yourself. So if anything, we got to renew our commitment to this process, to our communities, to our neighborhoods, to our streets, to our individual homes to say, I'm going out to vote to change this thing for me, for my family, for my neighborhood, for my street. Until we do that, we're going to keep losing these elections. And there's no, nobody to blame but ourselves at that point. How has the government

shutdown really affected Florida? Well, I mean, we know. You heard about the airport. Well, I mean, by the way, federal government's hand is huge. It's not just Washington, D.C. It's here in New York. It's in Florida. It's all over.

You know, I feel it when I walk through the airports. I was jumping on the plane yesterday, and these are TSA agents that are showing up without pay and with no sense of when they're going to get paid, by the way. And with their own responsibilities and bills to take care of at home. And so the stress of that, right, the stress of not knowing any of that by itself. Then you got government contractors. These are people who are not official employees of the federal government, but their entire work is federal. It's government work, except through private contractors who aren't getting paid either. The impacts on that are tremendous. The stress for those families.

We got to be a little bit more generous with ourselves. And moreover, we got to activate to get this government to do its job, right? I mean, the president throwing a temper tantrum and in so doing keeping nearly 800,000 people from getting paid out of work, impacting the economy by the tune of billions, it's unacceptable. This is not adult behavior. This is not what you do with the most powerful nation in the world.

I don't understand how he's allowed to do that. I mean, I know he's the president of the United States, but how can you just say, you know what, I don't like this, I'm shutting the government down. Like, that shouldn't be allowed. Because he's the president. But it shouldn't be how can you just say, you know what? I don't like this. I'm shutting the government down. Like that shouldn't be allowed. He's the president. But it shouldn't be allowed. Not in a democracy. That's a dictatorship. Like it shouldn't be allowed. Yeah. I mean, look, y'all, this is a system that we have. The truth is, is that it's not just the president that's allowing this to happen.

You got Mitch McConnell in the Senate who runs what comes before the Senate. If there was a vote right now in the Senate of the United States, even though it's majority Republican, to reopen the government, it would pass. And I would argue it would pass near unanimously. The problem is, is the Republicans have no spine. They've allowed this man to literally come in and take their party hostage, and all of them are victim to it. They won't speak up. They won't push back. They won't hold them accountable. They won't even open the government for their constituents who are right now at home suffering because of their lack of a spine. He's trying to do this in time for the election, thinking that the wall was something that he promised that he wants to make good on. Yeah.

Well, his people love symbols, though. So, I mean, yeah, if he did get that wall up, they probably would vote for him again. They probably would. But we all know that that's a farce. I mean, somebody I saw this meme the other day. America builds a wall and Mexico builds a ladder to go over. Like we know that what Trump is selling on this thing is a lie. Illicit drug entry into this country is coming through legal borders.

Largely, overwhelmingly, the fact that the drug addictions and the epidemic that's taken over the country as it relates to drugs is fentanyl. And fentanyl is coming from Asia in huge tankers. It's coming through normal ports of entry that are supposed to be checked,

but they can't even be checked right now because federal government employees are off work. Let's get that fententon through cheap. They sending that through crazy now. But y'all know, that's where a lot of the epidemic, the drug epidemic in this country is concentrated right now. A lot of overdoses happening because of Fenton. They're putting it into cocaine.

People are sipping cocaine. Absolutely. So the truth around the drug crisis in this country is the legal borders and the legal entry of drugs into the country. This border stuff is simply a play to get Trump's most loyal supporters to say that you don't have what you need because of those people, because of brown people. It's racist. It's completely open and overt racism. And most of the people that are illegal immigrants are people who overstayed their visa.

Completely. That's the overwhelming number. Completely. I mean, and if you look at the charts, I mean, immigration through the border in this country has been on like a sharp decline since the start of the Obama administration. And quite frankly, a bit before that, drug entry, we haven't had major migration across the border in this country for nearly 20 years. Right. So it's made up. Right. It's made up, y'all. Some people are throwing their hat in the ring. Yeah. 2020 election.

Who do you like so far? And is there potential for you? Because I keep hearing your name. Yeah. No, I'm totally hanging out in Florida. Hey, but we're happy, man. You know, the best thing to come out of this was that we have a new great black leader in the Democratic Party. I appreciate that. You know what I mean? I appreciate it.

And I appreciate y'all for always really balancing the demand and the need for, you know, giving people pop culture and information, but at the same time balancing what they absolutely have to know about politics and how to impact the process. So thank you all. Thank you.

All right. Well, it's Andrew Gillum. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. If you want to slander The Breakfast Club, call us right now.

Hello, who's this? This is Miss Friday. Angela, we love y'all. Envy, I love you too. But Indy, I've got to let you know from your social media, we all see how you've been getting money, and we respect the hustle. But the Christmas pictures, they were a little taunting in reference to other people that are not out here getting it like you.

I would have rather you showed us ways and different things other than flipping the houses on how to give back and take care of our families for the community. Also, Envy, you seem to be a little biased. Like, you're riding this Cardi B train, but you don't show Nikki no love. I love Nikki. I love Cardi B, too. But I do. If you follow my Instagram, you see that I talk about my toys for my toy drive.

I talk about the Thanksgiving drive that I do and the mentoring. And I also try to help people to learn how to make money, not just put money in their face. I do the real estate. I do a whole bunch of things. So if you would follow me and start looking at that, maybe you'll see other things as well. It's the end of the breakfast club.

I was waiting for that beige curve. I was waiting for that beige curve. She says she loves you. She says she loves you. But I knew the beige was going to come out. I knew it was coming. I'm trying to teach you if you just listen.

Oh, man. I'm trying to teach you. I was waiting for the beige to raise and make an appearance. It's not. It's not. It's not. That's funny to you?

It's hilarious. Nelson, good morning. Hey. Good morning. You, good morning. You want to slander Charlamagne? I want to slander Charlamagne and Yee. Oh, go ahead. Let's go. Hi, Nelson.

I want to start off kind of positive. I want to just start off by saying I love the show now, and I appreciate what y'all are doing. But. I appreciate y'all changing with the climate change, you know, society-wise. But look, there's this one specific show where Charlamagne, this is where your slander come in,

where you masturbate on your knees. Now look, that's not, that's, hey, that's your thing, it ain't my thing,

whatever. But during that session, DJ Envy asked Angela Yee, after Angela Yee talked about and shamed Charlamagne for doing that,

he said, Angie, do you masturbate like that? And she said, oh, do you masturbate like that? And she said, oh, that's not none of your business. I think that's inappropriate. How are you going to find that inappropriate after you talked about them masturbating?

But when somebody says something to you about anything, you're like, oh, I got a boyfriend. Oh, that's inappropriate. I can't imagine I said that's inappropriate. I'll have to look back at that. But I didn't bring up the whole masturbating on my knees. He brought that up on his own free will. But you partook in the conversation, and you should have done it all the way.

You know what I'm saying? Charlamagne, I got an issue with you. You, you, I feel like when, come on now, I feel like when it's an issue with women, you try to, like, overdo it. Like, oh, women are like, okay, women trying to be equal. That's great.

But you make it to where they're over us. If we're going to be equal, be equal. We are over you. Yeah. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't know if you know or not, but women are the CEOs of my life.

They are. Okay. I think God could possibly be a black woman. So I don't know what you're talking about, sir. I know my wife runs my life. My mother runs my life. All my homegirls run my life. I don't know what you're talking about, sir. I know my wife runs my life. My mother runs my life. All my homegirls run my life.

But when you go on vacation, you still try to do that DJ Envy. You should let me do a Yee Mix. People's choice. Why don't you let somebody else do the Yee Mix? Yeah, I've done the Yee Mix a couple of times.

They just want some money from him. There's nothing major, I don't think. It's a little coke. He just got called a little personal coke. Who got a start on Duke Coke? Not me. Not this number one artist. There's a picture online

with some coke on your nose. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was wilding. That was just funny. I was being a comedian. That was 10 years ago. That was 10 years ago. Coke is a joke?

Yeah, yeah. It was a joke, just having fun because I always wanted to snort because they look like they be having a good time when they be on that coke, but I'm scared I'm going to die. That's how it started. I don't want to die.

Here's a secret I didn't want to say. We was all on drugs back then. So all them wild tweets you used to see No, I wasn't on drugs. Don't try to I'm trying to get off your cute, but it was all tweets. No, I wasn't on no drugs. I just started smoking weed three years ago. I don't drink. I'm just living

my best life. But we also heard that you actually got your style and everything from Soulja Boy. My style? Everything. Soulja Boy?

Yeah. I got my style from Soulja Boy. Okay. Don't make that up. Soulja Boy came to make hits like me. He didn't say that.

Soulja Boy didn't say that. Envy made that up. You sure? Come on, I'll go off now. Soulja Boy was definitely on the internet before you. No, he wasn't.

That's it. No, he wasn't. Come on now. YouTube it. He was. Why y'all don't want to give big Soulja's credit? on the internet before you. No, he wasn't. Yeah, he does. No, he wasn't. Come on now. YouTube it. He was. Why y'all don't want to get big Soulja's credit? He definitely was. I remember when Soulja Boy came up.

No, you didn't. Yes, I do. How? I remember. How? I know Miami Mike. I know College Park. Okay, so what you know is crew.

I remember when they signed him. I remember how he blew up. Truth be told. To be real with y'all. How he blew up? He blew up off a viral video with these kids called Cash Camp. They did a dance to Superman. And that went viral.

So you were watching him online for a while. Because I was already online. I was already doing skits. He said you wanted to be in his video. No, no. What happened was College Park. I'm being real with you. No, no.

So you did it. No, no, no. Listen, listen, listen. The whole story was he had a video shoot. Right. College Park hit me up and said,

hey man, we shooting the video for my young dude, this, that, whatever. I came through. And that's the only reason. And I wore one of his shirts. I got,

it's probably a picture online where it says, soldier boy, tell him I had one of his shirts. I was supporting the young dude. So he was his son? No, he was my son. If you had his shirt on, that means you was my son. If you had his shirt on, that means

you were his son. If you wear his shirt. Will you support your kids? Come on. All this my kids. These are facts. I'm 41. These are facts. How are your kids, shorty? Come on, man. Y'all know who's here. I'm just playing.

But I'm serious. I got a new song called Pull Up. Pull Up! Come on. Matter of fact, let's play it. I want to play it. Y'all ever had somebody premiere their song on our show? All the time.

All the time. Not like this. It's just a radio show. It went here for me. We played it last week. Y'all did? Yes. Not a premiere.

We played it a couple times this week. But was I here? No. Play it. So you don't want to talk no more than you get your song played? Play it. But it's not just one. It's like 70, 80.

70, 80? Yeah, we on in 90, Marcus. Who counting? Let's do a real interview now. Okay, come on. So is there pressure for you to have another number one hit song after you've had one?

Nah, because I just do it for fun. I just try to put out that vibe out there. I'm not trying to be the best singer. I'm not trying to be the best rapper. I'm just being Duval, putting out that energy, putting out that love, putting out that energy. Putting out that love. Putting out that happiness. Putting out that joy.

Oh, so you the king of R and energy. Yes. That's hard. I'm going to tweet that. King of R and vibes. R and energy. What happened to the remix? I thought we were getting a remix to live in my best life. Nah, I said if Will Smith

don't do it, I ain't doing no remix. So what happened with Will Smith? He didn't do it. I don't know, he frightened you. He didn't do it. It looked like it was about to. You thought it was going to happen. Nah, I had inside words from a couple people telling me he want to do it, he going to do it.

So I was like, all right, if he do it, it's cool. If he didn't, I ain't going to be mad at him. He was vibing to it on his grand one day, though. He was vibing to it. Everybody vibes to it. He's always your hype man today. I'm always his hype man. He's always my man.

That's what your boy do. If your boy ain't hyping you up, get you a new homeboy. I read that in a meme. Did you ever meet Oprah? I see Oprah vibing to it too. Man, Oprah been curving me since I tried to hit up in the DMs.

You really wouldn't hit me? Nah, Oprah hit me. Well, she left a comment. When she left a comment. No, that wasn't. That was OWN Magazine. Same thing. A win is a win.

It's Oprah Magazine. That was still my joy. Come on, it's her magazine. When they left that comment, I was like, there is a chance. There you go. So I was DMing her all the time. She never replied. So you think that Oprah DMs from the Oprah magazine account?

I was waiting to see if it said seen. If it said seen. Oh, you was DMing Oprah? No, I was DMing. I was like, hey, boo. Just saying hello. Every morning. Good morning, beautiful.

And it never saw seen? No, it never said seen. So we expect everything. I think she saw it. You know how you see it, but you don't open it. She probably put her s*** on airplane mode and then looked at it. Speaking of airplanes, you just bought two of them. Who, me?

Wait a minute. You can put your phone on airplane mode? Oh, I didn't tell y'all about that. Oh, my God. What are you talking about? What you mean? Like, if you want to look at the DM and they don't see you look at it, you just put it on airplane mode, close it out, and look.

Are you sure that works? It worked for me. People say, they're like, you don't never look at my stuff. I say, I do. Yo, this guy's crazy. What about them two planes

you just bought? You bought two planes? Come on now. You told me about one. Now another one. You got two. Listen now, I don't want y'all to think

I'm out here super balling or nothing like that. I bought two small planes. One of them I bought to learn how to fly. The other one I bought to work in, to go on my tour, living my best life tour this year. That's amazing.

So they're not drones. They're actual planes. No, they're real planes, man. The first one's small, like an Obama plane. A lot of Obama. Yeah, but it's a good plane, though. Does that scare you? No.

We've been flying most of our career. Haven't you been flying? You've been flying on big planes. So you know how to fly the plane. You're an actual pilot. I'm learning. It's just like when I started scuba diving. I didn't get my certification until like two years after. I wouldn't recommend nobody else do that, but I learn

as I go. That's how I'm doing. Now we can expect most of your songs to be this good, fun, positive energy vibe. Yeah, a feel good vibe. That's what I try to do. That's what we pull up. Pull up, everybody tell me, like, I'm the life of the party. I bring joy to the world. So that's what this song about.

Well, introduce the record. Introduce the record. The name of the song is called Pull Up Featuring Ty Dolla $ign. It's a loving, joyful song. All right, let's get into it right now. It's the breakfast song. Pull up! Good morning.

Just don't bring me home, baby. All right, that was Lil Duval with Pull Up. You know what I really take that record to the next level? What? A feature from Soulja Boy. Nah, I'm good. Right now? Come on now.

Soulja Boy? Soulja. Soulja? Like a remix? Soulja? Big Draco. Pull out. Come on.

Nah, I can't do it. I'm good. I like the joy it gots on it. I'm thinking about putting a rap on there. Who y'all think I should put on there? Soulja! No, a real rapper. Who y'all think I should put on there? Soldier! No, a real rapper. Keep playing with Soldier now.

Soldier gonna be on your ass on the ground. Here come the videos of me. Come on. But make sure you put pull-up in the song in the background. Now, rest in peace to Kool-Aid. Yeah, rest in peace to my man Kool-Aid. How did that affect you? Kool-Aid, I mean, it affected me, but it affected

me because I had time to plan for it. Like, I've been? Kool-Aid, I mean, it affected me, but it affected me because I had time to plan for it. Like, I've been knowing Kool-Aid for like 17 years, and he found out he had cancer like five years ago. And so the last year, that's when he came out. So we was already preparing ourselves for it, but even when you prepare for it, you still feel a certain type of way. But I don't feel no hurt from it because I knew it was going to happen. And I think he was here for as long as he was supposed to be here. But I just blessed to that because I, believe it or not, I really believe I met God through him. Really?

Yeah. You've always had a strong relationship with God. So explain. I just felt like I met God through him because just everything, how it played out, how everything happened and just like when I went to him on his deathbed and how we, just the situation

when we was talking and I mean, well, he wasn't talking. When did Kool-Aid pass? In December. December. December.

I don't know. December. Oh, he didn't cry. It's okay, man. No, I mean, I'll cry,

but I don't cry because I'm hurt. I cry because. I see you posting so much. I didn't know. I honestly didn't know. I just seen you post the other day talking about when he was in the bed and he was like, you guys is talking about your life is so much. I didn't know. I honestly didn't know. I just seen you post the other day

talking about when he was in the bed and he was like, you guys are talking about your life is so bad. Look at Kool-Aid. He found about this and stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because that's where

Living My Best Life came from. That's where it was inspired from. So you thought he was still alive? I honestly did. I swear to God. But that's what social media do. Like, if I'm posting it... If I miss a post,

I missed a post. Yeah, we all do. But the energy of him it seemed like he was still alive. Even in them posts I post, he was hurt. I mean, he was hurting. He could barely walk, do anything, but he was still living his best life. That's why I don't feel too sorry for people that complain about stuff

because if he was happy like that, because as soon as he found out, we was like, all right, we're going to live this until you stop. And that's what we did. So that's why I wasn't hurt from it because he did everything he wanted to do. Even at the end, I kind of knew he was going to go and he kind of knew, but we didn't say nothing, but we knew what it was. You know what I'm saying? So it was just, I just felt

like I was able to meet God and he put a lot of good stuff in me in that time that he was here. Now what's better, the comedy money or the music money? It ain't about the money with me. I'm just asking what's in it. She ain't ask you that. She ask you a simple question.

It ain't about the money. Honestly, I ain't seen no music money yet. Not yet? No, not from the song. They say you're supposed to get money. That's from performing. I mean, from performing. Six months, you usually start getting some money.

It's been six months yet? I don't know. If it come, it come. I mean, it's gonna come. Somebody told me that Smile Bitch has generated $35 million. Man, don't you go with that. I'm more s***. That's them Soulja Boy s ****. That's them Soulja Boy

****. Exactly. That's them Soulja Boy numbers. Millions of millions. It don't matter how many. It don't matter. $30 million, $2 million, ain't no difference. That's what Soulja Boy said. It really ain't no difference on the gram. Nah, it ain't. You can flex. You can buy anything with $2 million that you

can buy with $30 million. It ain't no difference. Yeah, right. I wouldn't say that. Well, most things. The flex on Instagram. On the gram. Yeah, you can buy with $30 million. It ain't no difference. I wouldn't say that. Well, most things. The flex on Instagram. On the gram. Yeah, you can buy all the jewelry, all the cars, rent the cars, get you a jet, rent that. I can put $100,000 in 50s on the gram right now and say it's a million and people will believe me.

Yeah. Did you see that show when they show the dude put... What's that show when they... The carjacking show. The carjacking show. Yes. They put a bag of money in there

and the boys walk by and say that's 20 million dollars no he didn't he said man it might be a billion dollars in that bag

a billion a billion a billion they don't know the difference in money man these young kids stupid now what were your thoughts

on the surviving R. Kelly documentary and the reason I ask you because you have been on the internet for a long time and you did a spiving R. Kelly documentary? And the reason I ask you, because you have been on the Internet for a long time, and you did a spoof R. Kelly interview back in the day. Yeah.

And do you feel like comedians should, like, stop making jokes about it after watching the documentary? No, but I think the documentary shows a reflection of society as a whole on what we're dealing with. And it's just like you look in the mirror because everybody has something like that person in their life. To me, it's bigger than just messing with a young girl. I think it's just taking advantage of the weak, and that can be any age. So we need to address that more than anything. And then if you address that, then that'll kill all that

because that's all they're doing is trying to get somebody that's weak, and young people are easy to manipulate. So abuse of power. Yeah, it's abuse of power in any type of way. So it's bigger than just messing with young girls. To me, it's bigger than, it's being just... It's like manipulation and taking advantage of... Abuse of power. Yeah, abuse of power.

And that's what all they do. They pray on the weak. If you pray on the weak, it's wrong. Any type of way. And that's how I feel about all that. When we get that done, and all that stuff will trickle down the ecosystem and make it right. No, that's true, because if you think of every power dynamic, racism is a power dynamic. It's white supremacy versus the minority.

It's power. It's all blended in one. It's all blended in one. So that's the issue. And that comes from just being the change you want to see and just trying to put that into your own community. And then it'll trickle down into everything else. Now, what... Ooh, that was good.

That was good. Come on. That was good. That was freestyle. Did you have a conversation with your daughter after that? No, I didn't. I think she's too young right now. How old is she? She'll be 11 on the 27th. Oh, but you gotta start talking to her now. You don't have to talk to her about it because you know what happened

with the RK stuff and make the young people that didn't know them, know them. So the young girls that's chasing them, young dudes, that made them turn them on. So you just opened up a whole nother Pandora box. And you not even brought them up. Like you got to kill people with silence. You got to ignore it. And then they'll die down because he was dying down. But not even, even aside from just R. Kelly, just a conversation about, listen, you got to talk to me about anything.

The only thing I talked to her about, I did talk to her about human trafficking. That's worse to me. Lord have mercy. Like you can't, you to me. You can't even avoid that, especially like in Atlanta and stuff. They said they're cracking down on that for Super Bowl. It's impossible to crack down. Have you seen that movie about it? No.

With Laz Alonzo and all them. Dion Taylor produced it, but it's really real. Trafficking, you got certain cities in America that the whole city has made their money off of trafficking. So they let it go. Is it that big in Atlanta?

Yes. Really? Yeah. I didn't even realize because, you know, you see the little signs in the airport that say if you see somebody human trafficking. I didn't realize like they are really it's like they just preying on the younger. What does that look like, though? What does human trafficking look like? I don't know.

I think it's more so like I guess it's just making people aware. it and it didn't do it at first but then after a while i started putting two or two together so i guess it's like they had some they had some dude pulling up in the school bus going to kids you know and kids get on the bus and they got like damn that's what's real that's a big issue you know but so that's what i talked to her about like the other stuff i think a lot of stuff the way i raised her it'll kind of she won't have to deal with these young these dudes that's that's preying on young dudes because i mean preying on young girls because she got a she got a father figure for the most part and she know and i in the way i move they follow by people follow more than they listen you know you could talk to your kids all day but

they really go by what you do. So I try to be the example that I want her to see, be the type of dude that I want her to be with. It's really that simple. All that talking s***. Did it work for y'all when y'all was young? My parents didn't talk to me about it. You know what it is?

Later on in life. Later on in life, you see it. You're like, damn, he was right. My dad was right. My mom was right. But a lot of stuff that stuck with me from my family was stuff that they did. Like, I have to eat at a table just because I was raised like that. It wasn't she

told me. It's just we always did it. So a lot of stuff was by the action she did more so than what she said. So that's what I try to do with my daughter. Alright, we have more with Lil Duval when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lil Morning everybody It's DJ Envy Angela Yee

Charlamagne Tha Guy We are the Breakfast Club Little Duval is here Charlamagne If you was Kevin Hart How would you have handled That Oscar situation? Like I said

I've told him before You care too much He care way too much About stuff that don't Really matter In his life He looked at stress On this show the other day

He looked like he tired Of this shit He tired of talking about it I'm not gonna lie He's been running around Doing a lot I other day. He looked like he tired of this s***. He tired of talking about it. I'm not going to lie. He's been running around doing a lot. I hosted a screening the day before. No, that looked like more than just the awesomeness. No, he was fun and sleep.

That looked like life. That looked like he tired of everything. He looked like he tired of working. He need to come down to my house and chill and vibe. Which house? Either one. What do you think? Y'all keep trying to throw this money stuff out.

You got it. I don't promote money like that, man, because the money ain't... You don't promote money? We just seen you take a picture in front of your private plane. It'd be like my plane. Just bought another plane. That's a little plane. And they was killing me about my LaBama plane.

I don't care about that because I do it to inspire people to get more. Well, with that, I try to get more people into aviation and flying more because from what I've seen, I've seen a whole other world since I've been getting in flying planes. Like, a lot of people do it, and we ain't doing it. So it's like, we probably need to get more into flying. But isn't it really expensive? No, I save money.

That's why I say I use it for tour because it might cost my plane $600, $700 to fill up. If I put four people in it, I save money on Delta. I ain't got to pay Delta. But then don't you have to... How far can you fly though? Yeah, you got to pay for a pilot, but still, if I'm spending...

Two pilots, why don't you just meet them? Like, if I got, like, five people with me, that's about $4,000 in itself, ain't it? If you fly in first class. I mean, well, let's say $3,000 then. Right. That's still more than what I'm going to spend on flying my own plane. But how much does a plane cost?

I mean, it costs. How much does a pilot got to pay? I mean, it costs. How much does a pilot pay? I mean, you gotta pay one pilot or two pilots. I'm saying for me, like, it ain't for the average person. Right. But for people, when you get to a certain level in your life

where you can, it makes sense. And I can write it off in my business. You let people borrow your plane? No, I'm not that guy. I'm not an Airbnb. How far can you fly in the plane? In mine, I can go about 500 miles. So, I mean, how long is that?

What's that about? About four and a half, five hours. About four and a half hours. Oh, okay, okay, okay. About four and a half. But I ain't going to never go that far in that plane. If I got to go out West Coast, I'm going to just fly a regular plane.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you got to pay one pilot or you got to have two pilots? That's another thing. That's why I got the plane I got because only one pilot got to fly. I don't need two pilots because if you get a jet and stuff, you need two pilots. And that's more thing. That's why I got the plane I got because only one pilot got to fly. I don't need two pilots because if you get a jet and stuff, you need two pilots. And that's more money.

I'm wrist broke. I know what I'm doing. I'm not trying to ball and trying to stun. I do it to show people there's other ways to come up and make money and enjoy. And I like flying. I like the vibe. Do you have 20-20 vision? Huh? Do you have 20-20 vision?

Yeah. Actually, I really do. Oh, do you? I don't know yet. I ain the vibe. Do you have 20-20 vision? Huh? Do you have 20-20 vision? Yeah. Actually, I really do. Oh, do you? I don't know yet. I ain't took the test yet. I'm still learning. I'm learning how to take off, land, little stuff like that. But I'm going to eventually get to it.

Now, talk about this post you posted this morning. Uh-oh. You said, no woman has all five. One, the ability to know what they want to eat. Come on. Two, a father figure. Come on. Three, fire. Come on, they want to eat. Come on. Two, a father figure. Come on. Three, fire.

Most women besides big girls, it's hard for them to figure out what they want to eat. That's true. What do you want to eat? I don't know. I He's lying. I don't think all women is hard. Most women, besides big girls, it's hard for them to figure out what they want to eat. That's true. What do you want to eat? I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. You know, big girls know what's up. Why you gotta talk about big girls? No, I'm not talking bad on them. They show love. That was my goal for 2019. I want to have sex with a big girl. You never had sex with a big girl? Nah. I like wax. That's wax specialty.

Specialty. Wax got curvy big girls. I've never had sex with a big girl? No. I like wax. That's wax specialty. Specialty. The wax got curvy big girls. I don't like box built. Big girls. I don't like box built girls. I like curvy.

women in here. How do y'all feel about that list? What do you think? I think it's a lie. Which one do you think You got all those things? You got all those things?

Yeah, all of them. I'm good. You know what you want to eat? A father figure? You got five s***? Of course. Okay. Don't want to be popular? I'm chilling. No, you popular. That's why you messed up.

You came over here so fast Check the mic. That's one of the reasons why I don't like young girls no more because every one of them that I've met want to be popular. Every one of them. When you say popular, what do you mean by that? Just want to be in front of the camera.

Like you right now. I'm answering a question. When I'm talking about my work, yes, I want it to be popular. Yes. You want your work to be popular. Yeah. But you don't want to be in front of the camera.

I got a tour coming up. I got a tour. So Pull Up is for real because you do want women to pull up on you because it's too cold to go outside. Yeah, no. Pull Up is just bring that. You over there depressed over there. It's a party going over here. Only thing missing is you.

Pull up. That's what it is. Come over here to this vibe. Only thing missing is you. My goodness. Come on. You see how I made it? Living my best life tour.

When did that start? That started on the 26th or 25th. 25th in Buffalo. I'd be in Buffalo, then I'd go to Baltimore, then I'd go to Columbus, Ohio, and then I forgot the other dates, but just go on Ticketmaster.com. You'll see all the dates. But what is this tour, though? Is it all music? Is it comedy? What you doing?

It's Duval. Duval is just, I'm trying to take it to where it used to be back in the day with the Rat Pack and just entertainment shows. Like, back in the day, everybody did more than one thing, and that's what I think the next generation doing. They doing more than one thing. So you're like Sammy Davis Jr. Yeah, I am.

Sammy Davis Duvall. Come on. So, yeah, that's what I'm doing. So I'm doing comedy. I'm doing variety. I'm doing stuff with the crowd, engaging the crowd. I'm taking, like, the 85 South show. I'm trying to.

Carlos Miller. Carlos Miller. Chico Bean. Chico Bean. Shout out to them. I think they funny as hell. Hilarious. And I think they podcast.

So I'm just trying to bring a different element in entertainment and enjoyment. I want you to leave my show and be like, I had a good time. You taking Andrew Schultz on today? Andrew Schultz. Shout out to Andrew Schultz. You know, I'm trying to take anybody. And it ain't just focused on just comedians. It's just everything.

I might have surprise guests, you know what I'm saying, come out and perform. So stuff like that. So just come out to the show. All right. Well, we thank you. It's better for you than it is for me because I'm here to entertain y'all. Duval just came here for us to play a song. That's it.

Play it again. We talking too much. Play it again. I'm going to get it on in the mix again. No, play it again now. You're not going to put it in the mix. That's what you tell the mother. Play mine right after this go off.

I'll introduce it again. Put the camera back on me. How y'all doing? Little Duval. Big Duval. I went from smile bitch to pull up. Playing that. It's the breakfast club.

Good morning. It's time for donkey of the day. I'm a Democrat. So being donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed play. So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one.

Donkey of the Day goes to a young rapper known as Famous Dex. Now, listen, young man, I'm not trying to disrespect you. Just want to give you a little game. I'm not taking any sides in this situation. I just feel that Famous Dex is overreacting. Okay, see, Big Draco, a.k.a. DeAndre Cortez Way, a founding father of hip-hop, a godfather of hip-hop, commonly known to the world as Soulja Boy,

was on The Breakfast Club, and he had this to say about Famous Dex. I started this internet. I started the wave. I'm the reason why these new artists getting signed. I'm the reason why it's a little pump. I discovered Chief Keef. Any of these artists that's hot right now, Rich the Kid used to sleep on my couch. Famous Dex, I was the first person to fly Famous Dex to L.A. He was taxed on their money game before he signed to Rich the Kid.

Now, I can't tell someone what to take offense to. I can't tell someone what to be disrespected by. But I don't feel as if Soulja Boy was disenfamous Dex at all. Do you, Angelique? No. Do you, Envy? No. Okay, well, look.

Everybody has somebody who gave them their first opportunity, gave them their first look, gave them their first position. All of us have someone we can attribute our first taste of success to, that person who helped us get in the door. Hell, that person who might have just showed us where the door was. We all got that one individual. Everybody. So I don't understand what Famous Dex

is mad about. Hell, even if Soulja just flew Famous Dex out and recognized his talent, shouted him out, empowered him just by acknowledging him, that was cool. I didn't think it was nothing wrong what Big Soulja said, but Famous Dex did, alright? Famous Dex took the Instagram live with a semiotic weapon of some sort to express his

disdain for what Big Draco had to say. Let's hear it. You ain't put me on shit, bro. You just wanted to ride my wave, nigga. Soulja Boy, you better watch your fucking mouth and stop doing coke, bro. Because I'll come here, I'll pop up and smack your ass. I'll f*** with you, Soulja Boy, you 100. But don't say, don't put my name in your mouth.

Now, I tell y'all every day, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary. But how did Big Soulja saying he put famous Dex on turn into him Instagram gating a potential violent conflict with Soulja Boy? Like, Dex, come on, man. You're getting money, all right? You got a decent career going for you from what I can see. There's nothing Soulja Boy said on The Breakfast Club that warrants you being on social media with a chopper threatening violence. Pull up for what?

Pull up to do what? To throw your life away because Soulja Boy said he knew you before everybody else? I don't understand the logic. Okay, how about just pull up a chair and sit and enjoy the interview with Big Draco like everybody else? One thing I'm, you know, not even remotely trying to do in 2019 is cause issues between black men, especially young black men that are out here getting money. So I think it's very important to tell guys like Dex, bruh, you're tripping, tripping. All right, now I wish I would have saw this

because I would have reached out to Soulja Boy and told him, don't even respond. And if you do respond, respond in a different way because Soulja Boy and Famous Dex got on Instagram Live together. What do the young kids call it? Being on each other's lives? Live.

Live. Not lies. Stop it. Live. Being on each other's lives. Okay, I don't know who invaded who's live first, but this is Soulja Boy and Famous Dex arguing about absolutely nothing on IG Live. I want to beat your ass. I want to beat your ass. What you want to do then? I want to beat your ass.

What you want to do? What you want to do? You a fan. Fuck, fuck, fuck. It's up there. My mama. Go get your pain back. Stop wearing them face masks.

Go get your pain back. Hey, look, when I see you. Go get your pain back. You ain't going to do shit. My mama ain't going to do shit. What you ain't going to do shit? What? You coke head ass. You ain't gonna do s***. My mama ain't gonna do s***. You ain't gonna do s***, boy. Coke head ass. You ain't gonna do s***, boy.

Hilarious. I started to say Jesus Christ, but instead of Jesus Christ nowadays, I'm gonna say Soul Jabizi. Oh my goodness. That's the real Lord and Savior. But, you know, that exchange just shows me that arguing with a fool only proves that there are two. All right, seriously, let this be a teachable moment. We all have to be intentional with where we put our attention in 2019.

My great friend, my partner, my homie, little Duval, told you in the book of Duval, chapter one, verse two, not to go back and forth with these niggas. And that exchange you heard was a prime example why. Okay, they say arguing with an idiot makes two of them. So sometimes you just gotta leave people alone when it comes to certain subjects, and this is one of those times.

Famous Dex should have just been left alone on this one. Famous Dex, I want the best for you. Soulja Boy, I want the best for you. All you young black men, I want the best for you. But you have to want the best for yourselves, okay? This whole exchange was goofy as hell. Dex, if you had a problem with what Soulja Boy said, it's a way to express that without threats of violence and guns.

I would like for you young brothers to find other ways of communicating other than thumb-thugging, broadband-blooding, and cyber-cripping. And please, stop putting things on family members. Why is everybody always putting things on family members? On your son, on your mama, on your grandma. Everybody relax. If you guys don't think y'all can have civilized conversations, call an adult in the culture that can mediate

these type of situations because I'm tired of seeing young black men online looking stupid. And it's not about who's right or who's wrong in this situation because y'all both look crazy. And this is a prime example of why you never argue with a fool because people from a

distance can't tell who's who. Please give famous Dex the sweet sounds of the Hamiltones. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw. Dex, I don't want no smoke. Don't be on the Instagram with your chopper talking about me later, okay? I'm just trying to give you a little gift.

You're next. The Breakfast Club. You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Sparkle.

What up? Welcome. Now, Sparkle, I have to say, when I first found out about the surviving R. Kelly docuseries, they had asked me to moderate a panel. The first thing I asked Lifetime, because this was before I came out, I said, is Sparkle in it?

Really? They said, yes, Sparkle is in the Doctor series. Alright. Why'd you ask that though? Well, because I knew you had ties to R. Kelly from back when you were his artist and then I knew that it was your niece and you had testified in the trial so I figured that would be some powerful testimony. Somebody who

was there first hand. Let's start from the beginning, Sparkle. How did you hook up with R. Kelly? Okay. As far as recording artists. Let's start there. Let's get that hook up part right. Yeah. So let's start from the beginning, Sparkle. How did you hook up with R. Kelly? Okay. As far as recording artists. Let's start there. Yeah, let's get that hook up part right. Okay. 89, in the studio, he was working on Billy Ocean at the time.

And actually, a girlfriend introduced me. She and he were real cool. She wanted him to hear me sing. And then in 92, I was asked to come down and sing for him. And then I am the girl behind all the backgrounds on Aaliyah's first album. So I got to sing that.

Except for AJ, nothing but a number. That's what you did. Yeah, when that came out, I was like, what's this song? I was like, this is not a song that we did,

you know, but you know, yeah. At the time when you first met him, was there anything, did you see anything funny going on with R. Kelly with him into Young Girls? Or, you know, but, you know, yeah. At the time when you first met him, was there anything, did you see anything funny going on with R. Kelly, with him into young girls, or did you know he was dating Aaliyah at the time? Did you know that they have a relationship? Did you see any of that when you were doing background vocals for R. Kelly?

I ain't see not a thing. Look, I was working a job in 92 when he came and was like, you know, can you do this for me, do the backgrounds for me? I was working a nine to five. So I would, you know, leave the job, come to the studio, do my job there. You know, I'm in the booth at the, you know, at the mic singing pretty much the whole time. I didn't see anything going on. But mind you, Barry Hankerson is right there.

That's his, Aaliyah's uncle. Aaliyah's uncle, blood uncle. Her parents are there. Who's thinking to be looking for anything? You know what I mean? So I wasn't thinking about anything outside that's going on. You know what I mean? So, no, I didn't see nothing at all.

Watching the docuseries, you see that he really did keep people separated. Oh, yeah. That's what he does. He doesn't like for you to fraternize with each other. Like, he had other artists, you know, other than myself, although I'm the only one that came out. He didn't want us talking to each other. You know what I'm saying?

You said you would try to speak to people and they wouldn't even respond. Yeah, I was like, what's going on? I was like, that ain't me. I'm not that chick. I'm going to speak to you. We've seen Aaliyah's mother make a statement and say that what people are saying happened,

didn't happen, and that it's a lot of lies in the docuseries. How do you respond to something like that? Well, I mean, I don't know her story. One of your best friends actually said they actually seen it. Actually, she's an actual girl that I met while working on Aaliyah's album. I didn't even know her then. I met her there.

Now, for yourself, was R. Kelly ever strange to you? Did he ever come on to you? Robert of course liked me He's a handsome guy But I didn't want to Mix match those lines So to speak I'm there to do a job

I'm there to get my career on There after the Aaliyah situation From 92 to 96 I had no real interaction with him at all. So I don't know anything that was going on. I didn't go on no tours with him. I didn't do any of that. But in 96, I was asked to come back and do some more backgrounds for him, I thought. And two songs in, he was like, yo, he came in the booth.

Yo, we're going to work on your stuff now. You know what I mean? And then after that, working on my stuff, then I introduced the family. Right. So you never had a relationship with R. Kelly? No. That type of relationship? No. We had a business, but me and Robert were real tight. We were really cool. Like, family.

I thought so. Right. You know. And at that time, the marriage to Aaliyah had happened, but you thought it was all a hoax. Yeah. Like, who's thinking a 15-year-old is going to marry, like, your mama and daddy are there. Your uncle is there. Who's even thinking that? Like, did you think that was real?

At the time. I remember at that time. Right, before the license even showed up. I remember at that time, I did think it was fake. Yeah, come on. And there was a rumor, and they kind of played into it. Exactly. They showed in the fake. Yeah, come on. And there was a rumor, and they kind of played into it. Exactly. Like they showed in the documentary. But Robert does that.

Like even prior to, you know, my album coming out, you know, we're at the McDonald's. It's called Rock and Roll McDonald's in Chicago that we used to hang out at. He hung out at a lot. Which I don't get it. That grown-ass man hanging out at McDonald's with high school kids. You know, and these two girls came, oh, R. Kelly, R. Kelly, R. Kelly. And then they stood back, oh, is that your girlfriend?

He was like, yeah, yeah. And I was like, tapped him. I was like, and don't be saying that to them. I was like, I don't want nobody thinking that we like that like that. You know what I mean? And he was like, no, no, no. See, this will make them, you know, buy your records. You know, if I'm your, you know, if they think I'm your guy.

Like you do a song like, be careful when you put the video out together, it's more interesting. Yeah, he does those type of things. So, you know, even with the Aaliyah thing. When did you realize that he was into young girls? I didn't realize that until the tape surfaced. Until you seen the tape? So the tape surfaced

and you had no clue, no idea what was going on until that tape came out? No idea. You know what? I wish I had of known before introducing my family. Like, I introduced my entire family. We're a musical family. And look, Robert had just got a situation with Interscope. He was taking me to Interscope. He was leaving the other artists on job.

You know what I'm saying? So he was going to need bodies. My family's a musical family. Let me see if I can put them in there. Yeah, everybody can. And, you know, let them be stars like he was going to need bodies. My family's a musical family. Let me see if I can put them in there. Yeah, and you know, let them be stars like he was about to make me. You know, so I introduced my niece. You know,

my sister and my brother-in-law brought her down. I didn't just throw her to the wolves, you know what I mean? So I introduced her correctly. Okay, so when you did put out your project, which did well, what happened after that? So Robert had, we were actually working on a second album. Woman's Threat, his song, that's actually my song.

Wow. So, yeah, I recorded three songs on my second album before asking to be released from him. He finally, you know, let me go. Why did you ask to be released? Because it wasn't a good space with he and I no more. He was inserting himself in my personal life. Actually, before the first album came out, there was a big meeting because Robert said he was taking my deal away from me. What?

Yeah. Why? So he did because I had a boyfriend and because I had told this person that, you know, I was the only person going to Interscope. And he was pissed. So, there was a big meeting. Barry Hankerson, Robert, I brought my parents, and the meeting happened at the Hyatt

out at the O'Hare Airport area in Chicago. The killer for me, and I should have took heed at that point, was he sat there and speaking to me and my parents and he told my mom and my dad your daughter's so fine

I'd f*** off just looking at her. I'm sorry. You said that to your dad? My mama and my dad. What? What did your mom and your daddy do? That is crazy. My daddy bucked his eyes and looked at me

and then when we left there because still I was fuming at this point. I was like sinking like, just say this. I can't believe he said that. And on everything. And they didn't beat his ass and your family was there. I'm surprised. Why didn't they?

I don't know. I think just the naiveness. Why would he even say that? Just the naiveness of me in the business. This is my first out. I don't know nothing. You know what I mean? We left out of there. I'm in the business. This is my first out. I don't know nothing. You know what I mean? We left out of there.

I'm in the backseat of my parents' car. My dad turns around. He's like, baby, I ain't going to even say what he said. But I should have took heed. All right, we got more with Sparkle. When we come back, keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

N.V. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Sparkle in the building from Surviving R. Kelly. When you first seen the tape or heard about the tape, what did you do? What was your reaction? Because you never told us. Yeah, okay.

So a lawyer called my home phone. I don't know how he got it, but he called me and he stated to me, there is a tape that possibly has one of your family members on it. And I would like for you to go to your sister and your brother-in-law and get them to acquire me as their lawyer so I can, you know, defend them in this tape. I was like, absolutely not.

Because I don't know that that's my family member on that tape. So, okay. He said, I can send one of my associates over to show you. I was like all right you know send them I called my oldest brother I was like yo they saying it's a tape with somebody on it um come down here and view it with me he was like okay I called them back I was like okay me and my brother gonna do it here no no no hold up hold. Only you can see it. So, you know,

I was like, okay, bruh, don't come. I'm gonna be okay. When I left the nest, my daddy hands me off with a banger. So I'm gonna be good one way or the other. Gave you a gun. Your daddy gave you a gun. Yes, he did. Should've used that gun when he said you know, that's another situation.

Yeah, but however, the guy comes, he shows me the tape the first few seconds of it i don't know if you all seen it but i couldn't see any more of it i said shut it off that you know that is her um he calls the lawyer the lawyer's like okay can you know we get your family to view view this blah blah blah i was like let me check um the guy leaves call my family in an uproar, like she's on a tape, da, da, da, da, da. And you're not even thinking that your sister

and brother-in-law know about this or you're thinking they're going to be so mad. So they know about it already. I don't know. I still don't know. You know what I mean? Because they're not talking to me. But anywho, yeah, that happens.

I call the family. They say we want to view it. And then maybe an hour or 30 to an hour later, 30 minutes to an hour later, everybody's like, no, we don't want to see it. Uh-uh. Tell them stop. Don't come.

I'm like, what the? What's going on? You know what I mean? So I was like, okay, Robert and got to him. Now, I was thinking about this, right? And I've been thinking about this hard. As a father, you know, there's no amount of money you could pay for my daughter. But then I had to think about it like this, you know?

The one good thing about her not coming out is nobody knows who she is. Exactly. She can live her life now. You know what I mean? She can walk in here right now and we wouldn't know who she was because we don't necessarily know. She never testified. Her name is not out there. We don't know.

But if she would have testified and if she would have took that stand, her face would be plastered everywhere. And not that her life isn't ruined because of that.

Well, I don't know. Would they show a minor's face everywhere in a case like that? You would have her name. They would definitely get that with her name and everything from

the court records. I don't think they can't put her name out. They didn't, but until now. And the other issue is, aren't they they can't put her name out. They didn't, but until now. And the other issue is, aren't they still, like, cool with R. Kelly?

I've heard rumblings, but I don't know. When's the last time you spoke to your sister? The last time I spoke to her was probably right after my mom had passed. Have y'all spoke about

the tape at all after it came out? Have y'all had a conversation? They don't want to have that conversation with me. No. You never asked to talk? No, they don't want to have that conversation with me. No. They don't want to have that conversation with me. What about with your niece?

I've asked, but they don't want to have that conversation with me. I still treat her with kid gloves because she was so young then. I don't know her. She's traumatized. She's been through a lot. I don't know what she would do. You know what I mean? So I really treat her with kid gloves.

But I told her when we did come back in good graces I was estranged for 10 years from my family behind this for speaking up and speaking out telling the truth you know and and in 2011 my parents 50th anniversary we did a big to do for them and

that's how we came back together now that this has come back up I'm back where we were again. You know what I mean? Not speaking and what have you. But she's beautiful on the outside. But I know she's got to be hurting. I know she's screaming on the inside.

You know what I mean? So I don't know that she's gotten any help or anything like that. Now, you've said that there were a lot of things that weren't in the documentary that you would have been in there. And things that you said, like, what are some of those things? So, yeah, just the fact that people are thinking that I just threw my niece out there. No.

They're blaming you. Yeah, I introduced my family. Why y'all deflecting, like, come on, y'all. I did nothing. I definitely blamed you, too. This keeps coming to me. Because in the docuseries,

it doesn't necessarily explain well enough what happened. Exactly. It makes it seem like everybody heard what was going on with R. Kelly and you still introduced her. Well, no, she did say

that, you know, Barry Hankerson was there with Aaliyah. She didn't think that whole thing was real. The marriage is real. She thought it was a hoax. All of that was left out.

You know what I mean? So I sat in that hot seat for four and a half to five hours. It's a six hour documentary. They can't put me all through there. So some stuff is going to have to, you know, land on the cutting room documentary. They can't put me all through there. Right.

So some stuff is going to have to, you know, land on the cutting room floor. So, yeah. And people going, you know, think what they're going to think because of them

not putting everything in there. I called my sister when I saw her down there by herself, when I asked, you know, what you doing here by yourself?

And 30 to an hour later, my brother-in-law shows up. So never left my niece in no studio by herself and never would. Right. You still live in Chicago? I do. Have you ran into R. Kelly or seen him? Because I've seen him running around.

Have you bumped into each other at all? One time, maybe three years or so ago, he came in a restaurant that a friend of ours owned at the time. And he looked scared like I was going to jump him or something, but no, I ain't got nothing to say to the dude. Now, a lot of the women say that they've been getting threats. Oh, yeah. On their lives. Have you been threatened

since all this happened? Has anyone threatened you? Not, you know, on social media. You need to do this. You know what I mean? No credible threats. I ain't worried about them. You know, God got me. I ain't tripping on this. Yeah, you know what I mean? No, but... No credible threats. I ain't worried about them. You know, God got me. I ain't tripping on them.

But, yeah, I don't understand why they threaten everybody else. Go threaten that nigga. I mean, he's the one doing it. Like, come on, y'all.

But I mean, even the people within his circle, like his former manager making threats. Everybody in this camp probably making threats. Yeah, so I don't understand

that whole thing. Like, are y'all willing to go down in flames for dude behind this? Like, these are young girls, you know? And even still, even with my niece,

you know, all them people were around and seeing all this stuff. Like, y'all, I'm holding y'all accountable too because as an adult, y'all should have said something. You know what I mean?

She's a kid, 14 years old. Like, come on. And I know they were very clear on the documentary with all the women how separated everybody was. And you even said no one could speak to you.

Yeah. And you would try to speak and even with his ex-wife. Yeah. Oh, I want to clear that up too. When you see the piece in there of her knocking on her bedroom door to come out to grab something to eat. And I'm there with Robert and some other people.

And I'm hearing the knock. He ain't, you know, responding to it. I'm like, somebody knocking. So she was in the room and she was knocking to get out. Was the door locked and he had to unlock it? No. No, it wasn't locked. She just had permission to come.

And I was, when he said, yeah, and come on, I'm like, you a piece of work. How dare you? How dare you? And he just, I'm like, that's funny. It ain't funny. All right, we got more with Sparkle. When we come back, keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Sparkle in the building from surviving R. Kelly. Yee? Now, as far as the other women who are the survivors,

have you forced any relationships with any of them? I've not met any of them. The only person I do know is Javante. Okay. Yeah. And, of course, I know Drea any of them. The only person I do know is Javante. Okay. Yeah. And of course, I know Drea, you know,

but she wasn't around. She couldn't come out and play, you know what I mean? And I'm actually surprised of her voice. She never really spoke. Now, even with the,

watching the ex-wife and her releasing, like, even the videos of her dancing to his music and bobbing to his music and defending him, how does that make you feel

after seeing some of the stuff that he's done to your niece and these other girls? Was that recent or was those old clippings? Even if it was two years ago. I think it's in bad taste. I don't think she should have, you know, but... We also can't say how people deal with the trauma in their lives.

She does have kids with him. It could be a coping mechanism for her because a lot of the women did feel like they had to protect him for a certain period of time. So it could be, you know, they have kids together. Who knows? People know that you've been releasing a record too. We are ready.

Lord, don't talk about that record, child. They gonna be trying to... What y'all want me to do? You released it two weeks later maybe, but you released it the day of the documentary. Come out doing a twerk song, and you would say something about that. The song actually relates very well

to what was going on. Exactly. People were mad at you for that one. Look, 2017, I started working on my new EP that's coming out this year, right? And I have three songs in the can and was going to release one of those. This didn't come to me until March, February, March,

late February, early March, Dreamhant and reached out to me. I didn't agree to do it. I said, absolutely not. I don't want to do anything with that because I didn't want to dredge that back up for me nor my family. This stuff keeps coming to me. I ain't chasing it. I ain't ever chasing it.

From 2001, me calling the authorities on, you know, from the phone calls. You testifying. And then me seeing the tape and telling the authorities. I've been at it from day one. I don't know why y'all mad at me. Be mad at the person.

Be mad at the culprit. Don't be mad at me. Now, do you think that- And the song, Envy, it speaks to the time. Right, it's about... You know what I mean? Come on. I'm speaking to the time.

The Me Too time. The Time's Up time. So if y'all mad at that, whatever. How did that affect your career? Just at the time when all of this was going on, you called the authorities, you know, and R. Kelly was still putting out music as we saw, like, Ignition, Chocolate Factory, all of that coming out, you know, and R. Kelly was still putting out music as we saw like Ignition,

Chocolate Factory, all of that coming out, you know, after and during the trial. How did that end up affecting you? Because he was a powerful man in the industry and you were at one point signed to him. So what did that do to your career? Well, I mean, as you see, I, you know, I stopped music to go get my family back. And yeah, I'm he I'm sure he pulled some strings to facilitate some things of me not doing certain things, but check this out. A woman came and rescued me,

you know, along with a few people in my family, you know, my partner, he and his family, and then the Braxton's. Tony said, come out here. I'll help you eat. You know, you can eat. And I went to Vegas. I moved to Vegas for three years and did her show on the strip for three years. Was she the background singer?

Yeah, and she gave me a little shine in her show. So, yeah, I so appreciate them because at that point I had no family. You know, only one brother was talking to me. It's had no family, you know, only one brother Was talking to me a six of us, you know what I mean? So is that the one that testified I said she wasn't on the tape. No, I'm the older brother I'll call him the middle brother. My favorite brother. What do you think should happen? Do you think he should go to jail? Look I said I said this in the doctor which which they didn't show I feel like

He should get help Then take his ass to jail. I'll help him in jail. I think, well, yeah. Well, I don't know if he's going to get some help. But I don't know if it's going to be the right help. I think what he did to those young girls, I think it should happen to him in jail. Yeah. It's mad crazy.

Even though people say, well, is this? No. He affected these young girls forever. He affected them and their family. And I see it's two girls still with him. And it could be more, you know what I mean? We gotta get them out of there. You know what's really awful

is that people are like, well, we all in our community have seen that happening. The older guys coming to the school to pick up the young girls. Which is true, but it's not okay. It's true, but it's not okay. That's what I'm saying. We've got some uncles, some daddies, some granddaddies still are doing this crap to us.

So yeah, we need to handle this. Now let's talk about the Dave Chappelle sketch. The song, the Piss On You song, because everybody's been talking about that lately and how no one thought about the victim who went on the tape and how that would affect her. How did you feel about that? I didn't find it funny.

I love him, but I didn't find that one funny. That particular sketch, because it's something that is personal. Yes. Do we know who released the sex tape? Because at one time they said it was a manager because they were having problems, and then one time they said it was an ex-artist. Do we ever know who released that sex tape?

Actually, one of the guys downstairs just said that, they said, I'm the one who released the tape. Somebody said that sex tape? Actually, one of the guys downstairs just said that, they said, I'm the one released the tape. Somebody said that to you? Yeah! I'm like, I ain't got no power to release no tape. What? Are y'all crazy? People walking in the streets and saying,

hey, Sparky, you released that sex tape? That's crazy. I'm like, I'd kick my own ass if I didn't. Like, come on, that's my fucking niece. I really don't know. And they need thanks kick for that, too. Absolutely. And who was the dude? That's a young girl on the tape like come on y'all how did you feel when you watched the docuseries

did you get to see it before it came out no i saw with all of y'all did you see it before i know you did i said the first two episodes before yo it was just heavy like the first day i was pissed second day i'm crying profusely because I'm hearing all this stuff about my niece. Third day I was just numb. I was just like, I'm drained from this. This is crazy. Like, who is this person?

I don't even know him. You know what I mean? If he manipulating young girls and these older women too, you know what I mean? And he manipulating the, I'm sorry, the men who are around him now. And they don't even know it. They blinded for the money.

Oh my God. They blinded for the money. It ain't that, money ain't that. Did you see the video of him out on his birthday in the club and the girl saying, take me for a ride? Oh, I didn't hear that, but I heard about that. I didn't hear it on the tape.

Take her, rape her or something. That is crazy. How did that make you feel? It almost seems like he feels like he's untouchable. He goes out, he's chilling. You see it. That's how he's feeling. And it's good they had psychologists on there to actually break down the mind of somebody like him,

as they call it, hiding in plain sight. But we've allowed him to feel that way because we ain't done nothing. People still supporting him. Nobody believed me back when. Nope. Look where we at now. Look at where we at now. And this stuff keeps coming at me.

I ain't chasing it. So what's next for Sparkle? What's Sparkle doing now? Do we even talk about it? Because these people going to be like, why she up there talking about it? Listen, at the end of the day. I'm a singer. You're a singer.

You're supposed to stop singing. Y'all, I haven't been out since, what, 2001? I did bring a joint I called So Bad in 2012 just to test the waters. It wasn't for sale, y'all, okay? But, you know, I'm a singer. This is what I do. This is my livelihood. So, yeah, I have an EP coming out spring, summer.

She's like, I don't even want to talk about it because I want people to talk it. And some other little things that I'm, you know, in the works and I'll let y'all know about that. Well, introduce the single right now. My new joint, We Are Ready, y'all. I hope y'all enjoy listening to the lyrics. It's a, you know, yeah. Listen to the lyrics.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We got the number one album in the country. Number one album in the country, A Boogie. Yeah.

What's up, son? I was thinking about what's going on. Al Mount right now. You got a little daddy's crest on your face today. This morning, man. Yeah, my daughter

getting me mad right now, man. How old is she? He's trying to make her not cry. Yeah. How old is she? She about to turn two on Valentine's Day. Why? She got you mad because she crying?

That's a whole lot. I don't even want to talk about it right now. She's lying. She's a baby. She's only two. I got a three-month-old at home and a three-year-old at home. She's like a grown little baby. She know what she's doing.

She don't like the breakfast club. I understand the feeling, my brother, but they don't know no better. They just kids, man. But it's a celebration for you having a number one album. That's huge. Yeah, I went to the club last night. Went wild. It seems like you don't get excited over anything.

Nah, that's my, like, I get motivated for things. I just started working harder after I just went number one. I went to the studio, too. Went crazy. And recorded another song just to celebrate? Yeah, yeah. I love doing that, recording, so why not? It seems like you love being in the studio,

but all the extra stuff that you have to do, you're not that into. Like interviews. Or like even being in the club. I ain't got lots with a guy, baby. Interviews. I hate these shit, baby. You don't.

But this is something that I love to come and... You don't gotta lie. I love to come every once in a while. That's why I told the label, too. I told them, man, don't make me no interviews. I just want them to share the music and show them through the videos. But when it comes to shit like this, we already know Breakfast Club on top.

I'm doing this. I'm not doing no more No more little interviews That's not I ain't doing no more Bulls**t basically But your generation Is different because Y'all got social media

So like y'all talk directly To your fans all the time Yeah I don't I don't really use Social media in that way though I chat with my fans I made a little chat And it's like a group

Called Hoodie Gang It's all my fans Right here called Hoodie Gang Shout out to them too It's like my My core fan base I feel like. And they talking to me and telling me what to do, basically.

And I'm asking them questions. And they're asking me questions. And I'm getting a vibe off of them. And they leading me, basically. They guiding me into my direction that I want to go to. And it's working because you got the number one album in the country. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Interviews are fun when things are going well, too. Yeah. Like you ain't got nothing negative to, you know, deal with. Yeah, you know me, man. You ask me some stupid shit, I'm not going well too yeah like you ain't got nothing negative to you know deal with and yeah you know me man i'm not gonna you ask me some stupid i'm not gonna say nothing to you it is you told bill boy that you felt like you were in a midlife crisis at the age of 22 why it's a lot at once it's a lot coming up like from nothing looking for my come up trying to hustle hustle hustle house will come up it's a lot looking thinking like when I was young I always still one million to me it's a lot of money but then when you got to pay taxes

high for that 40% 30% you tell me about you looking back like and you gotta pay managers and you gotta keep an upper shell a style you bought a car house you say your family for, everybody around you. And it's like, damn, you got to keep up with this shit. Then you realize, oh, shit, I need another motherfucking income. That's the type of time I'm on right now. I'm like, nah, I can't just do this music money. This ain't enough.

This is a lifestyle I'm trying to keep up with. So I got this, this, this, this in the pocket. Like what else? You already know what I'm talking about, man. Like real estate, starting off, because you got to have one goal at a time. I feel like you can't just be everywhere or you're going to just...

Focus. Yeah, you're going to be frustrated as shit. Like for me, I feel like if I focus on one thing at a time, I'm going to knock all my goals out. Like six months, boom, I'm going to do this. Six months, boom, I'm doing this. And don't try to make it short-term. Make it long-term.

And then I'm sure everybody in the Bronx leaning on you for money. Like, yo, A Boogie, I know you got it. Nah, nah. I like to say no. I like to say no. The best words you can learn when you get that, when you get the memes. You get up out the hood. A lot of people say, ah, you changed, you changed, you left the hood. I changed because I left the hood, man.

I don't want to live there. I'm famous now, and I don't want everybody coming up to my house, my building. It's just a hole. You go back to the hood all the time. I've seen you giving money away and everything. Yeah, I go back to the hood all the time, but that's still, like, same thing with everything, man. You never know. That's why I say I don't trust nobody because you really never know.

Bro, you're in and out the hood. You don't just sit on the hood anymore. Nah, I'm not stupid. I i'm not gonna stand on the corner but one time you you love the hood you love going back home yeah that's when i was like just getting into that for me just breaking through that's why i said i gotta i gotta know so i was saying something like that like i'm still kind of attached to the streets but um i'm done with that i mean i got a family now i gotta got a whole career i never knew i would have this much money why would i want to lose all this money for some stupid

now i remember seeing you perform at the garden super early on like opening up for drake shout out to jersey on that huge stage what what was that experience like and what's the difference between then and now like the problem i was like a kid i felt like a kid still back then or that's how I felt. I looked up to Drake. I still look up to him. I ain't gonna lie. I'm gonna give it a buck,

but Drake was different. He said, Drake learned from him. You agreed with me. Everybody learned from him, Soulja Boy. That's crazy. See?

Everybody. I'd be wanting to know. Is that true? I'm f***ing with you, bro. I kind of feel that way But I don't know how it affected your generation You know what I'm saying Like your generation is like

Nah you know one thing I could say though About Soulja Boy though In the beginning with that You would say Soulja Boy He changed the internet With that You know what I mean So I respect that right there

I remember last year you said 6ix9ine was the king of New York And you said He was When I said that I said that like in said that in a respectful way because of his numbers and me and him have different lanes.

You always got to look at it like that too. I'm not a gimmick person. I'm more of a music person. You're the introvert. He's the outlandish extrovert. Yeah, so he the wild boy. That's like my partner in crime right there, to be honest. To be straight, that's my partner in crime.

Anything we do, it's going. Anything we do. Did you think that he would end up in the situation he's in? Man, I don't know, man. But, well, free that man. Have you been keeping in contact with him? I ain't get to yet But me and him

We are the Breakfast Club Now it's time for a, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now it's time for a positive note. Yes, my positive note comes from my daily stoic book. You know what I'm saying? My man Ryan Holiday. I read this when I was on vacation. This was actually my daily affirmation for January 4th, but I wrote this down because I want to carry this with me all the time

because he said that the most essential parts of stoic philosophy worth carrying with you every day are these three things, and he calls them the big three. One is control your perceptions. Number two is direct your actions properly and number three be willing to accept what's outside your control that's all we can do and that's all we need to do perception action will remember those three critical disciplines and they'll help you in life breakfast club bitches you You all finished or you all done?
