Man, y'all been together longer than some people have been married. I'm proud of y'all. The voice of the culture. Peace, love, and let's go to 20 years. Congratulations. Good morning, USA. Hey, fam. Hey, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

Today's Wednesday, right? Guess what day it is. Guess what day it is. Hump Day. That's right. It what day it is. Hump Day. That's right. It's Wednesday. It's Hump Day. Good morning.

Good morning. No Charlamagne today? No, Charlamagne is out today. Okay. You know, I'd never be knowing what's going on. I walked in. You know, whenever you, sometimes you're at home or somewhere else, and I don't know you're here, then I talk over you.

Yeah, no, no, no. I am here today. Charlamagne is out. Thanks, Envy. I didn't know that. No, you didn't know if he was coming in late, over you. Yeah, no, no, no. I am here today. Charlamagne is out. Thanks, Envy. I didn't know that. No, you didn't know if he was coming in late because sometimes he comes in late. No, you said I am here today. No, I'm here.

You ain't got to talk over me. Okay. All right. But yeah, we are here today. Charlamagne is out. I think he'll be back tomorrow. All right now. Listen, yesterday was a good day.

Tell me about it. So I do these Facebook audio rooms and I did one yesterday on women and investing. And it was great. There's this woman, Nadia Vanderhall, and I just follow her. You know, this app I use for investing called Public. So I follow her on there. So I always like the advice that she gives. And so I just had to reach out to her to see if she would be on the platform with me to talk about investing

because she gives really great advice, and she did it. And I learned some great things to do for my stocks. And so it was just basically teaching people how you can invest. You only need a few dollars. It ain't like you got to have a lot of money to be able to invest in the stock market, how to learn how to do it.

So I'm getting my watch list together right now and coming up with some better habits too. Yeah, I've been doing and playing with the stocks a little bit. I haven't been putting too much money in, maybe $25, $40, $100. I don't know. I was never a stock kid. I don't have great advice when it comes to stock market. I just follow my heart.

I look at the products that I actually use and then I... But you can always learn. Yeah, always learn. You know what I'm saying? But that's where I started. That's where I started small. Yeah, that's the main thing. There's so many apps and it makes it a lot easier.

You don't have to buy a full share. You can actually buy fractions. And so a lot of different ways. But you just got to get in it. And so it is actually really fun. And for somebody like you, I think it's a fun thing to do. Yeah, I'm actually on Robinhood. I don't know anybody at Robinhood.

I'm not getting endorsed by Robinhood. Somebody just told me to get a Robinhood account. And I'm up. I started with know anybody at Robin Hood. I'm not getting endorsed by Robin Hood. Somebody just told me to get a Robin Hood account. And I'm up. I started with $50 in one account. And now I'm up to $639.39. That's great. That makes me feel like if I instead of putting that little bit in, I'd have put a lot more. I'd have been made a lot more.

But, you know, I just, you know. And it goes up and down. I still don't understand it. It says today. Then it says after hours it was up. And then it was this. And then it was that. So I still don't know. But what I learned yesterday

and I guess I kind of knew this was buy the dip, right? So when it's on the down that's why you do the watch list. Alright, forget it. But I just, things that I like like I put money into Delta. I fly Delta. I put money into Apple. I put money into iHeart. I put money into just anything that

I mess with, I just put money into. The best advice is, though, once you decide it's something you like and you want to invest in it, make sure you go offline and do your Googles and search it and see what's going on in the company. See how much debt they have. See what's going on internally. If they have a new CEO,

if they're growing, if they're expanding, what their plans are for the future. Because it could be things you don't use, like if you don't smoke weed, but you want to invest in cannabis. Correct. That still might be something good to invest in. Yeah, I'm still not all the way sold

because I invested into some Bitcoin. And I'm looking at it right now. Well, different cryptocurrency out there that you can invest in. Her advice was also to not do more than 2% of your portfolio in cryptocurrency. Well, I ain't doing nowhere near that, but all I know is it's down. When I mean down, let me see. Oh, so I started.

Did somebody tell me, just put $1,000 in it. So I said, all right, let me put $1,000 in it. What is it at right now, Red? $300. Okay. So I ain't doing that no more. I want to pull the $300 out, but I'm like, let me rock this thing out. Let me see what it does. But all right. But you know, you just got

to pick and choose. And also let me shout out to the BET Hip Hop Awards. I'm going to be hosting the red carpet this weekend for the BET Hip Hop Awards. Of course, the show premieres Tuesday, October 5th. So I was out and about looking for something to wear. I don't have a stylist. My stylist is myself. I go to the stores. I try to get the coolest, cheapest thing that I can find. And that's what I rock. The coolest, cheapest thing?

Yeah, because I don't like spending a lot of money on clothes. I'd rather spend it on cars, accessories, houses. But when it comes to clothes... If you get a stylist, they can pull clothes for you. And then they can bring it back. Sometimes stylists are whack. They give you the worst looking things. They try to put you like, like yeah i want you to look like

this person i'm just it's like my own ish all right all right well let's get the show cracking uh mark cuban will be joining us yeah you know i love shark tank i know you like him because of sports and dallas maverick of course of course shark tank and then he's bringing uh noel durity with him he's the ceo of twisted up but nowisted Up is this new thing that if you have kids, you've probably seen it. It looks like a small tennis racket that you use for your hair, and it puts your hair in different. Why you got to have kids? Why can't people use it themselves? Just because you don't have hair doesn't mean other people don't.

You're right. Maybe you use it for yourself, or maybe like me, I use it for my kids' hair because I ain't got no hair. But it makes the kids' hair or your hair in dope designs, and it's really dope. It looks like a small tennis racket. He created that, and it's doing exceptionally well. So they're both coming up today, and we'll talk to them. All right, now we got front page news. What are we talking about?

Well, the NBA has released their protocols for virus safety this season. We'll tell you what they are. All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the All right. We'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. All right. Now, no WNBA scores? Oh, here we go. I see it right there. Put it right in front of me. Oh, my gosh.

All right. Chicago Sky beat the Sun 101-95. The Aces beat the Mercury 96-90. Good game. Tomorrow is game two, the semifinals tomorrow at 8. And the Sky take on the Sun. Mercury take on the Aces one at 8. The other one at 10.

So good luck to those women. Now, what else we got, Yee? Well, the NBA has released protocols to teams for virus safety this season. And they detailed how unvaccinated players will be tested a lot more than their vaccinated colleagues and also other restrictions they'll have. So if you're not vaccinated, you can't eat in the same room with vaccinated teammates or staff. You have to have lockers as far away from vaccinated

players as possible. You have to wear your mask and stay at least six feet away from all other attendees in any team meeting and you'll be required to remain at home when in your home market. They also need to stay on team hotel properties when on the road. That's stupid. And the limited exceptions are you can go buy groceries, you can take your kids to school and things like that.

That is dumb. You also cannot visit higher risk settings like restaurants, bars, clubs, entertainment venues and large indoor gatherings. How does that make sense? You want my locker six feet away, but we're on the same court. I'm playing defense against you. We're sweating. I can't eat with you, but I can block your shot. We can't talk in the locker room, but I can dunk on you. Now, fully vaccinated

players, and that's about 90% of the league, will be able to do business as usual. Unvaccinated players also have to get rapid tests on days where the teams are practicing, traveling, or having any type of team events. Does that sound right? We fly the same plane together.

We're going to be on the same plane. I guess you're going to put me in the back, you in the front. But I could defend you. I could talk to you. That doesn't make any sense. We could sit next to each other on the bench. But when it comes to eating with each other in our locker room, we can't. That does not make any sense.

Now, yesterday, LeBron did confirm that he is indeed vaccinated. Last May, if you guys remember, he refused to say whether or not he was. Here's what he said. I think everyone has their own choice to do what they feel is right for themselves and their family and things of that nature. I know that I was very skepticism about it all. But after doing my research and things of that nature, I felt like it was best suited for not only me, but for my family and for my friends. And, you know, and that's why I decided to do it. All right.

Now, as far as whether or not the other players should do it, here's what he said. You don't think the issue is important enough for someone with your stature to speak out on it? You know, we're talking about individuals' bodies. You know, we're not talking about something that's political or racism or police brutality and things of that nature. We're talking about like people's bodies and well-beings, you know, so I don't feel like for

me personally, and I should get involved in what other people should do for their bodies and their livelihoods. I agree with him wholeheartedly. I mean, it's your decision, your body, you make what's best for you and best for your family. I'm vaccinated. I want to protect myself, protect my family, protect my parents, protect the people around me, protect the people I work with. But it's everybody's own personal decision. You can't be mad at somebody because they don't want to protect myself, protect my family, protect my parents, protect the people around me, protect the people I work with. But it's everybody's own personal decision. You can't be mad at somebody because they don't want to take it. Can't be mad at that. All right.

But you can say, I think it's a good idea. Yeah. All right. Well, that is your front page news. I mean, you can, but we don't know. Like, everything changes weekly. Like, everything changes day by day. We don't know if it's a good idea.

I mean, I guess. Obviously, he thought it was. That's why he did it. It's a good idea for me. I think if you get vaccinated, you obviously did it because you thought you weighed out the options and said, this seems like a better option.

Yeah. All right. Well, that is your front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Maybe you had a bad morning, bad day,

or maybe you had a great day, great morning, whatever it may be. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Why you laugh like that? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. Say it with your chest. I hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you got something on your mind, let it out. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's Dre, man. Dre, what's popping? Get it off your chest, who's this? Hey, it's Dre, man.

Yeah, Jeezy's birthday was yesterday. I was so angry, just celebrated her birthday. She's ready. Yeah, Jeezy's birthday was yesterday. I just celebrated her birthday.

Yo, it's on page. Hey, what's up, bro? Get it off your chest. Yo, hey, I thought we needed to share the light on the good dads, good fathers out here. There's too many good fathers out here that are going through situations that I'm not getting spoke on enough. For instance, me, myself. I got joint custody. My daughter had it over a year.

Her mom is just disobeying the law and hasn't allowed me. I paid over $10,000 for a lawyer. I still ain't been able to see her. I just need some help, bruh. I'm sorry. That's awful. But shout to all the good dads out there, man. And you keep fighting for custody for your baby, bro.

I'm praying that everything works out for you. Yeah, I got down for dads. I created another private organization, Down to Number 4 Dad, to connect with other fathers. Okay. Okay. All right. I'll definitely check it out. That's good.

That's a good support system for other dads who are going through Okay. Okay, all right. I'll definitely check it out. That's good. That's a good support system for other dads who are going through it. Absolutely, man, because being a dad is, being a mom is difficult, but being a dad is difficult. Yesterday, I had to stay there

for an hour and 20 minutes as my daughter showed me how she played Roblox. Well, guess what? He would love to have been able to do that with his child. No, I loved it too, but it was the worst experience ever

because you can't, it's not like you can play with her. You just got gotta watch her drag these things around and jump off these things and she acts like... It'd be those moments that made the most. I know, I love it. But she acts like the doll is her so every time the doll falls, she'd be like, ouchie, ouchie, ouchie. But it was

the coolest thing until we both fell asleep on the couch, but shout out to my little babies. Hello, who's this? This is James Smith. Hey, James Smith, what up? Get it off your chest, brother. That sounds like a fake name. Hey, I want to wish my wife a 20-year birthday anniversary. 20 years!

The love of my life. That's right. 25 years. I've been married 20 years this year too, man. It feels so good, don't it? Oh, yes. Oh, yes. The best years of my life. That's right. But where y'all going? If it wasn't for her, my life wouldn't be the same.

I agree. Where are y'all going today for your anniversary, brother? Down in Craven Mike in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I'm from Cornwood, South Carolina. All right. And where y'all going? A steakhouse? Yeah. Oh, it's like Craven Mike's. It's like the seafood restaurant. What's your cash at, brother? I'm going to send you some money, man. Oh, that's nice. I love to see love. I'm going to send you some money, man. Oh, that's nice. I love to see love. I'm going to send you some money.

I don't have a cash app, but I'm going to have one. But you can start one. I'm so old. I don't even have one. Oh, damn. I was going to pay for your dinner tonight. Now, listen. I love to see black love.

If you could give couples one piece of advice on staying happily married, what would it be? Oh, man. One piece of advice, just try to do the best you can and have a daughter come out with your wife and your kids. Take care of your family. And please, everyone, get vaccinated. All right. I thought you were going to say communication. I thought you were going to say your wife's always right. But you just, you know, just just get vaccinated. I'm the happiest man. That's all I can tell you. All right, brother. Enjoy, man.

All right. Thank you. We'll send that That's all I can tell you. All right, brother. Enjoy, man. All right. Thank you. We'll send that to Pfizer so they can use it. I was actually going to pay for his little dinner tonight, but 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. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation

beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.

I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia.

Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tried my country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh, my God.

What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

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

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

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass. This is your time to get it get your podcasts. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this?

What up, though? This is Lee from Detroit. Hey, what up, though? Hey, what's up with your car, Sean? Is there any vendor booths or tables available? Oh, Detroit, yeah. So, Coachella goes down in Detroit on October 30th, a day before Halloween. So what we're doing is for the kids. You know, sometimes parents don't want their kids to go out for Halloween.

They say it's not safe. So we're going to do like a trunk of treat where kids can come out there and get candy all day long. So kids five and under are free. It's a family fun day. Celebrity cars, exotic cars. But to answer your question, yes, if you want to be a vendor, yeah, we could definitely put you in. Just email me, djmvcarshow at gmail.com. And if you haven't got your tickets, make sure you get your tickets ASAP.

Where do you get the tickets from? Click the link in my bio. Or you can go to Eventbrite and just type in djmvcarshow. What y'all doing? All right, and I'll see you on October 30th. Yes, sir.

Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Kawan from Atlanta. Kawan, what up, man? Get it off your chest. Yeah, yeah. Good morning, everybody. Good morning. And I want to know, Angela, how do you feel about the candy, man?

I know you like palm oil. Oh, my God. First of all, I really liked it. It's so funny that you just asked me that because right before I left to go to Barbados, I ordered it to watch it at home on Amazon Prime. So I loved it. Okay. Okay.

I mean, I review movies. I have like a podcast called Critical Blue Review. Critical with a K. But I kind of felt like it was kind of, they tried to make the Rihanna the main character, and I wasn't really feeling that. Listen, I have to go back and watch the original again because I know there were a lot of references to that. So that was one thing I was like,

okay, I got to make sure I go back and watch the original Candyman. But I did enjoy it. So, you know, how they updated everything and how they brought back Cabrini Green, even though. Don't tell people. I mean, I think it's Candyman's and Cabrini Green is part of the plot. It's not. Oh, okay.

I didn't see it yet. Right, right. But yeah, it was cool. I gave it like a 7 out of 10. That's pretty good to me. I would give it, I would think I would give it like an 8. But you know, I love horror movies

and I'm so excited around Halloween because they start putting all the horror movies on all the streaming services so I get to watch them. Right. Yeah, I know you're waiting

for the Halloween though. Listen, I'm excited. You know, it's hard to get a good horror movie though because sometimes you have your expectations up all high

and then you go watch it and it's corny, so. Oh, it's what's up. But yeah, but if I can get a plug real quick. Go ahead. My podcast. Yeah, brother. So everybody, check out my movie reviews, critical movie reviews, critical with

a K. And I appreciate you guys, man, and keep up the great work. Thank you, brother. And shout out to Nia DaCosta. She's a black woman that actually directed Candyman, so that was a big deal, too. That is dope. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Danny. Hey, good morning, Danny.

What's up? Get it off your chest. So this happened probably like last Sunday, over like a week ago. And an incident happened between me and my ex. You know, it's like a little late night wink after the club. He calls me, tells me to come over. I come over. So before I go in, I make a mistake and dial somebody's phone number.

So I didn't think nothing of it. So I go, you know, we're about to get busy. We're messing around. And the guy texts me like, you're okay? It's like 5 o'clock in the morning. So he's like, I'm not your phone. I'm like, no, no. So everything got bad, got physical.

I got kicked out the house naked. What? Yes. Oh, my God. I got kicked out the house naked, and then I'm running from my car naked like at five o'clock in the morning. And he throws a brick or brick or something at my back

window. What? Oh, he is awful. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I just want to say this is God's way of telling you stay away from this person and never talk to them again. That's a Benz. I think we should put a hold for Aski. This is a good Aski. Can we put you on hold for a second?

This is a good one. Alright, hold on. She threw a brick. Alright, my God. This is a good one. All right, hold on. She threw a brick. All right, well, we'll talk to her later and ask Yee. And also, today is what? Coffee Day? National Coffee Day? Today's National Coffee Day.

That's right. September 29th. So you guys know I have a coffee company, Coffee Uplifts People. And you can go to coffeeupliftspeople.com if you want to learn more. If you're in the New York City area, you can pick that up at any of your local Whole Foods, which we appreciate you going in there because we're trying to stay on those shelves. So in any way that you can support. But coffee uplifts people. So make sure you all support for National Coffee Day.

And that was for John. John called, but his phone got disconnected. He wanted to know about your coffee because today was National Coffee Day. So shout to John wherever you're calling from. Yeah, we have a great cocoa espresso flavor. We also have Ethiopian. We have Mexican. All of that.

I like Ethiopians and I like Mexicans too. Okay, good. Get it off your chest. Did you bring coffee up today? Well, we don't have any place to make it here. We don't have a coffee grinder. It's real coffee beans. I know nothing about coffee.

All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and the numbers don't lie. Let's talk about ratings for Netflix. They unveiled some data showing their most popular shows and movies. All right, we'll get into that next.

Akon's girlfriend. According to rumors, Rosina is going to be on The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

Now, Love B. Scott first broke this story. She's the mother to two of his children. And she's a close friend of Sharae Whitfield. So producers are bringing Sharae back as a full-time cast member. She was a friend for season 13. Is that his girlfriend or his wife? I thought it was his wife. Now, originally, they were saying his wife, but

apparently after the reports broke, his wife Tamika went on Instagram and denied that she was the person. She wrote, it's definitely not me. She said, I promise I am legally married to Khan. I'm a very private person, and if there's a fake wife joining the show, it's definitely not his real wife. These wives, whoever

they are, be all cap. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. So Akon's girlfriend is joining the show, but his wife is not? Mm-hmm. So he has a wife and a girlfriend? Akon has said multiple times that he's not a fan of monogamy. And he's said women aren't built to mate with more than one party. Men are.

As a male, we're natural breeders by nature. Wow. And his father had multiple wives. Wow. So his girlfriend is on the show, not his wife. Right. That's what I say. Is Akon going to be in the show?

I am not sure about that. I guess we'll see. This is going to be good. I'm going to watch this. All right. Now, speaking of girlfriends and wives, Moneybagg Yo and Ari Fletcher have responded to the reel. Now, Garcelle was commenting on the fact that Ari

Fletcher gave Moneybagg Yo 28 acres of land as a gift for his 30th birthday. Here's what she said on the show. Last season, Lonnie and I were talking about don't act married if you're not married. This is acting married. That's a huge gift to someone that you're not

even dating. I mean, you're not even married to. I feel like if a man gave me 28 whatever acres i would feel obligated to stay with them if it didn't work i don't necessarily agree i mean some gifts that they give each other are expensive i mean he's bought her a rose royce truck which is four hundred thousand dollars she has bought numerous jewelry and diamond chains at a couple of hundred thousand dollars i love the fact that instead of buying that jewelry and those cars, you buy some land.

It's the same thing. It's a gift. They don't have to get married, but these are great gifts and smart gifts and smart investment gifts. I don't have a problem with that. And some people could be life partners and some people get married and they get divorced six months later. You can't dictate what's going to happen.

But if in your heart, you feel like giving somebody a birthday gift because you love them, you can do that. You know? And so Ari responded, y'all don't know the half of what he does for me mentally or financially.

I've never felt so safe, loved, spoiled, and happy with a person. He loves me and my son so much. I'm sorry that you haven't experienced a love like this. Focus on getting your own land and your husband.

Yeah, because some of those Birkins that women be buying and these dudes be buying these women are 100,000 plus. So the fact that you bought some acreage and some land that appreci these women are 100,000 plus. So the fact that you bought some acreage and some land that appreciates,

I think that's smart. She said, y'all mad at jewelry and cars but generational wealth is taking it too far. People will always have something to say no matter what.

And Moneybagg Yo said, love is love, mind your business. I don't know Ari. And then he said, not fancy, hating on my gift. Yeah, right.

Do your thing Ari. I think that's great. That's a smart gift. You should do the same thing for your kids. When it's time to buy kids gifts, buy stuff like that and appreciate it. I think what you hitting on my gift. Yeah, right. Do your thing, all right. I think that's great. That's a smart gift. You should do the same thing for your kids. When it's time to buy kids gifts, buy stuff like that. I appreciate it. I think what you're doing is smart. Hopefully it's setting the trend.

I love it. All right, well, that is your rumor report. All right. Now, we got front page news next. What are we talking about? Yes, and let's talk about Afghanistan. And so U.S. military leaders have spoken on the Afghanistan withdrawal. It's their first appearance before Congress since this happened.

And we'll tell you what was said. All right. We'll get to that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Hey, what up, y'all?

It's DJ Envy. And the general insurance is all about making your life easier. The general has flexible payment options, and they allow you to choose your payment date and how you pay. They accept cash, card, or check. Call 800-GENERAL or visit Degenerate.com. Some restrictions apply. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Where are we starting, Yeezy? Well, let's start with some takeaways from what happened when U.S. military leaders have met before Congress to talk about pulling out of Afghanistan. Now, they did admit to lawmakers that they recommended to Joe Biden that the United States should keep a troop presence there. And earlier, if you guys recall, Joe Biden had told ABC's George Stephanopoulos on August 18th in an interview that he did not get that advice. Here was the question and answer. Your top military advisors warned against withdrawing on this timeline.

They wanted you to keep about 2,500 troops. No, they didn't. It was split. That wasn't true. They didn't tell you that they wanted troops to stay? No, not in terms of whether we were going to get out in a time frame all troops. They didn't argue against that. So no one told your military advisors to not tell you, no, we should just keep 2,500 troops. It's been a stable situation for the last several years.

We can do that. We can continue to do that. No, no one said that to me that I can recall. Oh, that's how you save yourself, that I can recall. All right, well, the testimony by General Mark Milley, who's the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and General Frank McKenzie, who is the commander of U.S. Central Command, it actually contradicts what Joe Biden had to say on ABC here is what they said. Yes, my assessment was back in the fall of 20 and it remained consistent throughout that we should keep a steady state of 2,500 and it could bounce up to 3,500, maybe something like that, in order to move toward a negotiated gated solution. General McKenzie, do you share that assessment? Senator, I do share that assessment.

McKenzie also had said that he warned that the withdrawal of U.S. troops would lead inevitably to the collapse of the Afghan government and the Afghan military. Now, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked about this discrepancy. And here is what she had to say in defense of Joe Biden. I'm not going to get in specific details of who recommended what. That was not going to be a sustainable over the long term troop presence. We were always going to look at escalating the numbers, potentially going back to war with the Taliban, at risking casualties. That was not a decision the president was going to make. But of course, he welcomes advice. He welcomed advice. Ultimately, it's up to the commander in chief to make a decision. He made a decision. It was

time to end a 20 year war. All right. So not sure what's going on with the discrepancies between General Mark Milley and General Frank McKenzie and President Joe Biden. But you've heard both sides now. Let me ask you a question. I asked you this the other day, too. Are you happy with the job that Joe Biden has done as president? No, I can't say that I'm happy. But I don't know too many presidents that, you know, we're happy about, because I think no matter what, there's people that are going to be supportive and people who don't support.

And there's a lot of really important decisions to be made. And it's not just the president. It should be a collaborative effort. But from what these generals are saying, it wasn't a collaborative effort because they made a recommendation and he didn't follow it, according to them. Correct. All right. Now, according to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, she's warning

lawmakers that the federal government will probably run out of money. And that could happen by October 18th unless Congress raises the debt ceiling. So they said that could be catastrophic. It would tank the markets and the economy and delay payments to millions of Americans. So they had previously said that they would run out of cash and accounting maneuvers at some point in October. Now, Senate Republicans have blocked a bill that would have suspended the debt limit. And she has cautioned that this deadline is only an estimate, October 18th, because the federal government's cash flows are subject to unavoidable variability. Yeah, so they'll just do what they always do, just print some more money.

That's all they do. They ain't got no money. They just start printing money like crazy, start giving out crazy loans, PPP loans and all that other stuff. That's what they'll do. And they'll continue not to tax big companies like your Amazons, like your major corporations that don't get charged tax at all. And they have these loopholes and they got to fix up. It's a debt limit. So they can raise the ceiling on that debt limit and just owe more money that we don't know where that's coming from.

By the way, it's the Senate Republicans that blocked this bill that would have suspended the debt limit. All right. And that is your front page news. All right. Thank you, Miss Ye. All right, let me swallow my bear. What? Nothing. What did you just say?

Swallow your what? I said let me swallow right fast. I'm chewing something. Oh, okay. All right, when we come back. That was so weird. It's not even Freaky Friday. Mark Cuban will be joining us, and also Noel Dirty.

It kind of gives you the hair shape. And we're going to talk to him next. If you're a big fan of Shark Tank, you've seen

Noel on Shark Tank do his whole pitch. And so, actually, Mark Cuban and Damon John, I believe, invested in the Twist It Up. Alright. And also, Charlamagne is out. So if you want to give somebody donkey of the day, 800-585-1051. You can give whoever you want donkey of the day. All right?

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.

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

the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building. We have Noel Durrty. I tried to say it with his slang. And also Mark Cuban here. Welcome, fellas. What up, what up, what up? How you doing, man?

Now, Noel, I didn't know that this was your product when I first seen your name. Well, Envy doesn't have any hair, so it doesn't matter. No, not for me. Not for me. Yes. For my son. For my son. So Twisted Comb is your company.

Yes, Twisted Up. Twisted Up Comb. Now, if you don't know about Twisted Up Comb, that is the device that people use for their hair that kind of looks like a tennis racket. Correct. And it well i use it for my son's hair my little son jackson's hair so how did you come up with this concept and this idea of this comb that can comb kids hair and as you can see mark cuban uses it all the time my natural is ready uh it just came at birth out of necessity for me so um obviously in our culture, right, we've never really had

something that we can wake up and go. Every hairstyle that I ever had had some type of maintenance, whether it was braids, waves, curls, texturizers, and I got it through real estate. And what started to happen is that I wanted to figure out a way to wear my hair naturally and go to work. Correct. And my

cousin came across this, a tennis racket. And he goes, bro, like, you can, like, actually twist your hair with a tennis racket. How did your brother come up with, like, what made him say, you know what? He must have been high. You know, a lot of things happened, you know, after midnight, you know. But it came out. I started using it. There's obviously another product out there that you can use, which I loved.

The only problem, like you said, is that, A, I had to replace it every week. B, it wasn't really portable. So I went to the club and took off my hat. And they were like, yo, no hats here. I was like, yo, I can't do my hair. It's all matted. So I just wanted to figure out a way to do this. And a tennis racket worked.

It was a one-time buy. So I went and I bought three of them. So I did very well in real estate and i started traveling and my boy and i went to brazil and i ended up losing my racket um don't know what happened to it man party done yeah so hey that's a song party done that is a song shout out to mashaw um so we ended up walking up and down Brazil trying to find this tennis racket. And it took me like about an hour to find it. So when I came back home, I was like, yo, it is 2017, 2016.

That has to be a small tennis racket. Like, there's no way. Went on the Internet, couldn't find it. So I'm like, all right, I'm going to give myself 30 days to figure out this problem. I ended up shrinking it, went to my barber and was like, bro, look what I did. And he was like, yo, you have to sell this. At the time, I was like, yo, I'm not about to leave like a six figure job to do something that I thought was very niche. December of 2016, the state barber patrol or whatever you call them, walked into a shop and fined them for using something called a curl sponge. So he got fined $250 for having it.

So he goes, bro, if you don't make this into a product, I am going to do it. So January of 2017, I do the Long Beach International show. It's like a hair show. I found a manufacturer down in Orange County. I got like maybe about 500 products. Sell out the first day. At the Long Beach show, I found out about Bronner Brothers. I only had like about 700. Sell out the first day at the Long Beach show I found out about Bronner Brothers

I only had like about 700 sell out the first day have nothing to sell the next two days and Bronner Brothers I found out about this show called New York

called BarberCon BarberCon went there sold out in the first like 35 minutes how many? I think that was like

north of a thousand and what was really dope about BarberCon is that they allowed me to be on stage, demonstrate it. So as soon as I got off the stage, it was gone. Why did you think you needed like two thousand at Barbacon? At the time, it's trying to like scale, right? So in February, it was still being hand done. How much did it cost to make them?

In the beginning, about seven, eight bucks. And then I had to figure out a way to solve the mesh, right? So at the time I was dating this girl, we were at Korean barbecue, and I'm looking at the grill, and I'm like, yo, this is exactly what I need. That's why you're not with her no more. Y'all going to dinner, and you're talking about it. He's thinking about his hair. The grill was like shaped like this and it doesn't bend.

So I was like, I sent the picture of the grill to my manufacturer and he goes, yes, we can do this. So then we started switching out the mold and we came up with the stainless steel model. And then we just started running. I went to a show in April in Connecticut called Barber Expo, the Connecticut Barber Expo. And those four shows, I just completely sold out. So April of 2017, I turn off the faucet on real estate and mortgages, and I decide to make this a full-time business. Mark and Damon invested into the company, went to Charlotte. Now, was that kind of weird?

Because Damon has no hair. And I don't think Mark has the hair. So what made you say, you know what, this is a great, this is something I can invest in? Well, two things. One, you heard him, right? He knows his stuff. And, you know, there's entrepreneurs who know their business,

know their company, but they don't always do the work. Noel does the work. Man, he dug in. He understood his industry. He understood the opportunity. And two, I mean, owning the Dallas Mavericks, I might not have the right kind of hair, but I know a lot of people who do. Correct.

Right. And the feedback was amazing. And so, you know, we closed the deal and we've been working together ever since. And the good part about Noel is, you know, some businesses in Shark Tank, I got to babysit. He needs no babysitting,itting you know but it got off to an interesting start right talk about when when we you visited with me um in dallas in your car oh yeah so uh uh my car broke down so wait we go so we meet like he's staying at uh okay hotel and that was like an end yeah you can say like maybe like three stars yeah i can't put keep and put you in a whole. No, no. I pay for myself. So like I come from humble beginnings. Right. Look, I got it with the cheapest of them cheap as it goes. Yeah. Like to me, that's a good. Yeah. I mean, I'm not in the point to spend money like it should be for the business to that. Correct.

Like I don't need to stay in a five star. Like I'm I was fine sleeping in the end before him. I could be fine sleeping in there. I had no problem with the inn before him. I could be fine sleeping in the inn with him. Amen to that, man. I had no problem with the inn, right? Yeah. But the best part was, right, we didn't go, like, there's no meeting room or anything. We're just sitting outside talking, right? And he goes to start up his car. And it wasn't like, okay, I got a nice rented car. It was

a beater, B-O-S, right? It was great. Facts. It didn't quite start. Yeah. So what did you do after that? You talked to Mark, and now your car won't start. I got it jumped. Yeah, it was dead. It was one of those where you couldn't turn it off ever again

until you got back home. Well, I mean, it was Dallas, so it was a renter car, right? But that's even better, right? To me, that was like, okay, I love this guy. Man, we're going to do business forever because he's putting his money in the right spot because the beaters I would rent when I was like, okay, I love this guy. Man, we're going to do business forever because he's putting his money in the right spot. Because the beaters I would rent when I was first getting started, like just nasty cars that you had to buy, right? Like my first suits were all used clothes.

Two for $99, buying used polo shirts, used everything because that's what you have to do, right? Where are you going to put your money? And Noel was right on that path. And on top of that, he's not afraid, man. You can tell when someone truly believes in their product, they got it with them all the time. It's not selling that's helping, right? And so they're happy to talk about it.

And that was Noel. Now, Noel, now that this product is flying, it's doing well, what's next for your business? Because I'm sure it has to be something. What else is next? So I want to build out the brand in a sense that it's like how damon did it for us by us i'm gonna have like the whole twisted up line um coming out with another comb and then just this entrepreneur journey just figuring out where to put your money now that i have it to make it grow yeah that's the best part man the best part of investing in somebody

is the day they hit you up and go, I got all this money. I need an idea as to where to invest it. Yeah. You know, it's like, hey, I'm ready to pay you back all your money. And then some. We're making money. Correct.

I mean, because, you know, getting an investment isn't an accomplishment. It's an obligation. Yes. And some entrepreneurs realize that and some entrepreneurs fight it. And Noel was all about it. And so it was like he worked and busted his ass to get where he had money to invest. And, you know, put aside, you know, what I got back. It's just the fact that he is there.

We have more with Noel and Mark Cuban when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Noel and Mark Cuban. Now, you both got it out the mud, got it out the dirt. It wasn't generational. Nobody gave you a million dollar loan. Nobody gave you none of that stuff, right? So now they have plans that if you make over $400,000, they tax the shit out of you.

Now, think about it. This is your first time. You got it out the mud. You got family. How do y'all both feel about the fact that they're going to tax people that make $400,000 more, way more than anybody else? No comment. I'm okay with it.

You know, I can't, and I'm going to tell you why. When you look at a company and they say that they're a billion dollar company and they pay $750 in taxes and you look at yours and you'd be like goddamn I pay way more than that let me let me just explain that right okay not not that I'm standing up for anybody not paying taxes right but what I'm saying is I invest in a lot of companies and not all of them like no well right and

twist it up a lot of them go belly up like out of my shark tank companies probably 25% of them turned out to be idiots that are just done. And so when you lose money like that, you get to write it off. Correct. And so if you, you know, in the case of big companies like Amazon, the way that they get those taxes down to zero is by investing in new research and development and new things. And so all those things that make their service better, the government encourage you to invest in those things because they keep great jobs, they create new technologies, all that stuff. So if we stop encouraging those things, I think we go backwards. Now that said, if Jeff Bezos benefits and he puts

cash in his pocket, pay more. That's when he pays, right? That's when you pay your way. Now let me ask you this. Mark, I've heard you say before that you don't believe in taking loans from banks. That's the best idea. To start a company. To start a company. But when it comes to you, Noel, saying that, okay, I want to get an investor, because sometimes for people that's a hard decision because now I'm giving away a percentage of my company.

I know you give away a higher percentage because I saw the episode. It's a very dynamic pitch. But you gave away a larger percentage than you had anticipated. So how do you make those decisions and what was going on in your head? Because you wanted to give up 15%. Well, I mean, I got two sharks, right? So for me, it was the mentorship. I'm a firm believer that, you know, go work. Go save the money.

Before real estate, before mortgages, before twisted up, I was serving tables. And I served tables for three years and saved $100,000. Yeah. That was my goal. I had three serving jobs. And I lived across the street. So I would literally walk to all three jobs and go back home, save and repeat.

And I go, yo, I don't know what I want to do with my life, but I know at the age of 25, if I have $100,000 in my bank account, life is going to be a lot easier. Absolutely. And that was my why. So if anyone that has a dream or wants to go out and wants to get money there's nothing wrong with that but i'm a firm believer that

there's something that gets created when you do the work because that gave me the confidence to be like yo i can i can start a company from scratch and go on shark tank and get a deal and i got rejected three times the fourth time i was like oh yeah you're going on and it's just so you tried to go on shark tank three times three times they turned it's like, oh yeah, you're going on. So you tried to go on charge three times, three times they turned you down. Correct. There's 30,000 companies a year that apply and they say no to. Now I want to ask you a question. I want to go off the limb a little bit.

I want to talk about COVID and COVID vaccine. NBA has been a big conversation. What do you think about players and taking the vaccine? I think it's a mistake if they don't, but it's their choice. I think they're putting their families and their co-workers at risk and it's a mistake, but I can't force anybody to do anything. Would I like to see the NBA require vaccinations? Yeah, but that's not my call. You know, at the Mavs for non-players, we require it. I have other companies that I control,

I require it. That's my freedom as the owner, right? And I'm not going companies that I control I require that's my freedom as the owner right and I'm not gonna force anybody I don't think the government should force you to do it but I think it's the right thing to do what's the best thing you invested in in the worst day I think we had Damon a penny told us a pie thing that he did was one of the best and he told us one of the worst I can't remember which was worth but what was the best and what was one of the worst that was the best there was a company that ended up pivoting called Panoramic. And so they came out with this software that you put in an iPhone 5, so I'm dating it some,

and it would make it turn and do a panoramic picture. Then they changed the layout of the iPhone, and they had to take the technology, and we pivoted to doing computer vision for cars online. Saw this one. Yeah. Yeah. And so the guy completely changed his business.

And so, you know, like if you go to Carvana and you can look at a car and you can open the doors and spin it, that started from that software on Shark Tank. So we sold it for, I don't want to say the exact number because I'm allowed to, but let's just say he got a lot of stock. And when he got the stock, the stock price of Carvana was like $18 and now it's like $300. Oh, wow.

Yeah. Yeah. So that went well. Okay. And what was one of the worst ones? There was a lot of them. There was a lot of them. They just didn't work, right?

So I'll tell you one, like when I first went on the show, I was a guest shark, right? And I'm like, this is a business though. This ain't going to last. And so I'm just going to buy everything and just try to raise some help. That's what you know when you got a little man.

I'm just going to buy everything. That's what I did. I just f***ed it up. Damon, they were all stunned, right? And so there was this one company. I'm not going to lay her out. And she had chocolate-covered pretzels. And we had a deal set up where I was going to help her sell

them to Neiman Marcus in Dallas. And I knew when it aired that they were going to blow it out. And so she sold it for $29.95 for the chocolate covered pretzels. And her cost was 14 bucks. And I gave her, I think, 75 grand to do the deal. On air night, I'm thinking, okay, this thing's going to blow up and I'm getting reports on her cash her cash is going down instead I'm like what the hell she goes oh you know we were selling it for $29.95 our cost was $14 our shipping was $16 we decided to give away the shipping for free oh my god I'm like goodness wait shipping with $16 yes she decided to get because she thought she'd get the customers and done it up like but now you're out of money. Well, you'll give me.

No, I won't. And that was it. It was over. Bam. Wow. How do you deal with knockoffs? Did you hear this story? No, I didn't.

So, again, at the time, I did get knocked off, right? And at the time, wasn't married, didn't have any kids. This is my baby, right? First thing I've ever started from scratch, and I saw it grow. He went and fought everyone yes i did um so what happened was that i through instagram people kept sending me dms yo there's a knock off here there's a knock off there's a knock off here and i got to a point where i couldn't look at myself in the mirror i had to be able to do something so um i called mark uh we had a conversation he goes you know Do what you have to do I fully support it

Alright I called my lawyer Like man I need you to write me A blank Cease and desist patent Letter He writes it to me Get on a plane

I fly to New York I have a bunch of these And I just go to the stores And man Your east coast Beauty supply stores Are like on every corner Yes they are

It is crazy Brand names Non-brand It is Buts this is sweet in new york where y'all literally have like 30 it's a big business a lot of black people in new york yeah so um i did a tour and i went into every single beauty supply store from new york new jersey philadelphia oh well pennsylvania north carolina south carolina virginia atlanta went down to texas New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Atlanta. Went down to Texas, did Dallas, Houston, flew down to Michigan. And I did that whole entire thing. And I would walk into the store, have my little speech.

I would smile. I would let them know that I'm not after you. I'm just trying to collect these knockoffs. If you continue to sell it, you could be held liable. Just everything that my lawyer told me that I could say. And they would hand over the product. And then they would hand over the invoices. And what happened is that I started creating a paper trail of where these combs were coming from.

And a lot of these combs, where they were coming from, I had already sent the people that were distributing it a cease and desist. And a lot of people would say that a patent pending doesn't protect you. But it does. Right? And a lot of people would say that a patent pending doesn't protect you, but it does. Right. Because if it gets granted, you have a paper trail, you have legal documentation to go after them. Because while it was pending, you sent them a cease and desist and said, you may not be violating the patent, but I'm letting you know that we're in the process of getting one. And if it does get granted and you did not cease and desist, we have a signed date certified letter that you were informed that this was pending. And then you can go after them. So the four main distributors had already got them like last year when I first created it.

And I ended up stopping all the knockoffs. All right. Well, no more. We have more with Noel and Mark Cuban. Noel is the CEO of Twisted Up. And we'll talk to him some more. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ En Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

We're still kicking it with Noel and Mark Cuban. Now, I have a question. What advice would you give entrepreneurs in this new day and age? You know, because when COVID hit, it made everybody an entrepreneur. So what advice would you give

to new entrepreneurs? There's no shortcuts. Do the work. There is no, and there's no such thing as getting rich quick, right? Especially with like this whole stock market trend. Everyone wants to like, oh, jump into the new hottest thing. But if you look at anything that goes up, it's going to go down, right?

So like do the work. There is some type of confidence that comes in doing the work. Whatever you want to do in this world, you don't have to try to recreate it. There is someone that has done it. Just go online and follow the blueprint. Damon John is a perfect example. He's black, he's an entrepreneur, and he's very good at it. So I can't make the excuse that I can't be a successful black entrepreneur because there's many of them that are doing it. I just go out there and do the earn your leisure guys, Rashad, even yourself. You guys are out there promoting financial education.

There is no excuse. Go online and learn something. Go on YouTube. Go on Google and immerse yourself and learn something new every single day. Treat it like a job. What would you say, Mo? Watch Shark Tank. No, I actually really love watching Shark Tank.

First of all, it comes on a lot. A lot, yeah. But I learn a lot about how to pitch. I've hosted things like Demo Day in Detroit. They do a Demo Day where locally they're able to pitch. I'm hosting Black Entrepreneurs Day for Damon John also. Oh, that's great. Yeah, so I love watching people pitch. And like I said, Noel, yours was really good because it was entertaining.

It was interesting. And you had a great product. Thank you. And that's really where it all starts. Exactly right. But if you can passionately speak to what it is that you're selling or that you're trying to get an investment in, I think that means a lot. And you have a lot of knowledge about it.

Yeah. No, I was exactly right. You got to do the work, right? It's not like, okay, I'm starting a business. Now it gets easy. No, it's the exact opposite. You know, like, like I tell everybody, you got to work like someone's out there trying to kick your ass all day, every day.

Now, how do you create your team with this era of super teams now, right? You know, I'm from the era where somebody stayed on that team until they died. Like, Patrick, you and Dan, they died as a New York man, you know? Dirk, yeah. Dirk, you know? So how do you combat that as an owner? Like, you know, when you look at the Lakers and you look at the Nets and you look at how players are now talking to each other like,

Hey, Noel, that's me and you. Let's go to Washington and play for Washington. We'll bring you in. We all play together. Like, how do you feel about that? Players are now talking to each other like, hey, Noel, me and you, let's go to Washington and play for Washington. We'll bring you in. We all play together. How do you combat that? That's just part of the business. If I can create a good environment where people want to come play with Luka, which I think they will, and come play with KP, which I think they will, come play for J. Kidd and Nico Harrison,

then people want to come here. It's a very Darwinian business. You just got to keep on innovating. You know, you got to be agile. And that's what I try to do. Do you like that part of the business, these super teams? It really doesn't bother me one way or the other, honestly, because karma's a bitch.

You know, you got to, as much as some of the super teams work, I remember back in 2010-11 season, there was a super team that got put together and got knocked off by a team that only had one all-star. Right. You know, and everybody thought we were going to get destroyed. And then they won a couple, then LeBron leaves. You know, and so it's fragile. You know, you look at what happened last year.

Right. You know, teams had injuries. Injuries, correct. Yeah. Now, you know, COVID. We got beat up last year with COVID where we had like six of our top eight guys out with COVID for a bunch of games.

And, you know, there's just so many uncertainties in this business that as long as everybody plays by the same rules, I'm good. You know what I did want to ask when it comes to business too, with everything that's been happening

the past couple of years, a lot of focus on black entrepreneurship and black women as entrepreneurs because we start a lot of businesses but get the least amount of money is that something that gets taken into consideration now on shark tank because it's a huge conversation now yeah absolutely i mean if you look at the number of people of color with businesses that come on this season season 13 which premieres october 8th on abc um you're gonna see a lot more i think the pandemic that's one area like you were saying dj um envy that people started a lot more business everybody that was at home choice yeah started businesses and we saw a lot of that um

i invested in a woman arlen hamilton arlen hamilton who um the black woman who goes out there invests only in in of color. And you'll see a lot more than that. And it's interesting because just like Noel started in his community, saw an opportunity and then built it out. That's what we're seeing more of. Because when we talk about there being fewer entrepreneurs that are people of color, that's a unique opportunity because the communities are still huge and have a ton of money. And now that we're starting to see more like yourself and others getting there, if you sell local, then you build to regional like Noel has done and national and international like

Noel has done. That's the opportunity because people that look like me aren't there, you know, in those communities to build those businesses. A lot of people think, OK, what works there, you know, in those communities to build those businesses. A lot of people think, okay, what works there, we'll just move into those communities. When it's the exact opposite, the closer you are to your customer, the better business that you can build. And I think we're starting to see more entrepreneurs realize that, which creates more opportunities for me to invest in people like Arlen and invest in more people, both men and women of color. I'm proud of you and the Earn Your Leisure guys. Yeah.

You guys have us on the forefront and you guys are having the conversation and we're seeing people that look like us talk about businesses. Yeah, well, that's the main thing. We try to teach people the things that we don't know. We try to encourage people and show them how to do it without taking somebody's money. Like I tell everybody all the time, a lot of people spend $10,000, $20,000 on seminars and investments. So my whole thing is I'd rather you take that $10,000, $20,000 and try. Because if you're going to lose it, you're going to lose it.

Correct. But at least you try. You put your effort to it. And we just try to encourage people and show them there is a way. That's why I love products like this where you can say, no, I started from nothing. And I came up with this an idea and it's actually working correct hard work i didn't have to sell drugs i didn't have to do this i didn't have to do anything illegal i'm trying to do it i'm doing it the right way and i'm setting up something for my

families well tell people how they can get your product if they want to get your product and give me your instagram and all that good stuff yeah so you can go to our website twist it up comb.com um go ahead and cop that for us there's's a code, twistme10. You can go ahead and get 10% off if you use it. You got one for me now? No, you got to buy it. I said I need to buy one. I use it for my son all the time. And then you can also get it on Amazon. You can find us in beauty supply stores across the East Coast and coming to a retail store near you. Have you done any NFTs yet? I have not. So I'm like really big in stocks.

I'm really big in stocks. I have some crypto. I'm just trying to find ways. My bread and butter that I love, I call it my wife, is real estate because it's the first business I've ever made six figures in. And I just love rental property. Because no matter if the economy goes up or down, you still got to pay rent. Well, not right now.

Yeah. That's changing, though. Well, we appreciate you guys for joining us. Noel, Lamar, Cuban, thank you so much for joining us. And keep us updated when you got the new products. Come on back, and let's share these products with the world.

I appreciate it, man. Thank you very much. All right. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Who'ma have it? On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.

On The Breakfast Club. Well, in New York alone, R. Kelly is facing up to 100 years in prison. That's 20 years for racketeering, 10 for each of his sex trafficking convictions, and his sentencing will take place in May. In the wake of all of that, his ex-wife of 13 years, Andrea Kelly, has spoken about her feelings after he was convicted. And here's what she had to say. Well, I sit in a very difficult place because unlike the rest of his victims, I also share children with him. I was married to him. So I wear two hats. I wear the hat of a survivor and an advocate, but I also wear the hat of a mother and an ex-wife. So it's very difficult for me. I feel that my heart is in two places. My heart definitely goes out to the survivors and the

courage that it takes to even come forward and tell the story. But my heart breaks as a mother because this is now the legacy that my children will have to deal with and their children's children at the end of the day. You cannot walk away from your bloodline. Yeah, I mean, I know she's a victim, but I'm sure she still has to want him to go to jail because she is a victim. Yeah, she didn't say she didn't want him to go to jail. I mean, even for herself. She said she wanted him to go to jail, but she has to want him to go to jail.

She's a victim. She's seen the things that he's done to these women and herself. So you've got to want him to go to jail for a long time. It was interesting to me that people were mad at her. Why? She was responsible and she knew what was going on and not understanding the things that she went through

as well. She said at one point it was so bad she contemplated suicide at her lowest point. And when she was on The View, she talked about how she was physically

and mentally abused while they were married. She said at one time he hog tied her in a bed, raped her, and then fell asleep without untying her. And she said she suffers

from PTSD and she wants to help out other victims as well. now here's what else you have to say because they do have uh you know as as far as when it comes to their daughters even what what is going to happen with that because of course you still well not of course but that's a hard situation right if this is your dad how do you feel here's what she said your daughter Joanne said she still loved her father but she felt she had to love him from a distance. And how does that relationship survive something like this? Well, I can't answer for my daughter because, again, I can only speak to my journey as his ex-wife and a survivor and an advocate. But I think that that goes to say with any child,

it doesn't matter if your parents have a problem with drug addiction, you are still going to love them because they are a part of your DNA. You share blood with them. I also support my children in whatever they feel because at the end of the day, it's their father. I think drug addiction is a whole lot different. But the problem is, is, you know, say, say, oh, Kelly is your father. And let's say he treated you fine. He treated you well.

You've never seen any of this. He did the things that a father is supposed to do. But then he has this other side. How do you deal with that? Do you still visit your dad that treated you well and supported you all your life, but you didn't know that side? Or do you say, nah, this was a nasty side. I don't want to be nowhere near

this person. I'm sure it's up to the individual. And everybody handles that differently. Because we can say what we want to say, but I would never, but that's not your dad. She might not have known his side. R. Kelly might have did everything right as a father. Went to her games, supported her, helped her, you know,

in her hardest times, but then he had this dark side that she didn't know about. Alright, now, as far as Lisa Van Allen, she testified against him, and she also was in the Surviving R. Kelly documentary. She was on with executive producer Tamara Simmons on Good Morning America. And here is what Lisa Van Allen had to say about R. Kelly's conviction.

It was awesome. I mean, you know, I almost cried about it because, you know, this is what I was looking for back in 2008. So I would say that I believe that the difference is this time around is that there is power in numbers um a lot of people came forward um it's a lot of women empowerment going on and you know things like that so i would say that maybe the time just wasn't right back then and what do you do with all kelly's music at this point you know because do you separate the art and the person because he's created inspirational music music that i'm sure has helped a lot of people through their life, but he's a monster. Same thing with the Cosby. People at Cosby got locked up,

but he's created so much art that has helped so many people. What do you do in that situation? Speaking of Bill Cosby, his spokesperson Andrew Wyatt spoke to TMZ, and here is what he said about what Bill Cosby thinks at a time like this. We talked about it today, and the first thing he said, he was like, look, the guy was railroading.

As he said that Gloria Allred did the same thing that she did with him. You parade women out and you stir up the public sentiment to go against him. And that's what they did to R. Kelly. I see R. Kelly having a strong case on appeal. And I think when he gets to the appellate court and when he gets to the highest court in the land, I think we'll see a conviction overturned. And sometimes Cosby and his representation should just be like, you know what, it's not my case. Let me mind my business.

It's totally two different things. You had doctors say that they knew R. Kelly had STDs and he was known, given it to other women, that he's known for... No, it's totally two different things. And Andrew White had some more to say. As we said, this is Bill Cosby's spokesman about Bill Cosby. I mean, about R. Kelly.

This is an assault on successful black men who are doing great things. I think it's unfortunate that this man, even before he was ever brought to trial, he wasn't given bond. He had to sit in jail. We see Harvey Weinsteinstein who was out on bond We see the black and white issue We see this council culture issue in America and we see West the assault on successful black men who have wealth And that's what we're seeing today

Sometimes you just got to be quiet sit down and just be quiet doesn't concern you just just mind your business All right. Well, that is your rumor report. How's me? Just just yeah, you're out your home I know you're trying to get back into doing comedy shows. Just it's business. Alright, well that is your rumor report. Cosby, you're out. You're home. I know you're trying to get back into doing comedy shows. There's no reason to even respond. His case has nothing to do with your case. Your representation should not be talking on another man's case. That's probably the last person you went to. Yeah, that's the last person you went to

at this point. Alright, well that is your rumor report. Up next Donkey Today. Charlamagne is out so if you want to give Donkey Today you can. And also, Donkey today.

Wow. Yeah, man. Like, I don't understand how a person could risk everything. You know what I'm saying? That's the way the world is. Well, that was his last day, and I think he knew that. Yeah, man. They tried to catch him before he left out, the security did,

but he had already left out of the building. But they cut his badge off, you know what I'm saying, so he couldn't get back in. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, that was crazy, man. And what did you do when he punched the supervisor? I was, like, listening to the radio when they was calling for security, like, security, the security, you know what I'm saying,

and the supervisor was running like, somebody help me, somebody help me. Why did you help him? And then he tripped, bro. He, like, tripped and fell while he was trying to run. And mind you, the dude at punch team probably was, like, 5'2". This supervisor was, like, 6'2". 270, easy. You know what I'm saying? So it was, like,

Well, I mean, that's what versus is. They're usually disrespectful to each other. Have you seen the locks in the dipset one they get disrespectful

to each other yeah but it was nah but he was he was kind of like throwing shots at women he apologized for that he apologized for that words and stuff like that man and i and i felt i i've seen the escalation in god's attitude. And I felt that same rise in disrespect. And I felt when he shut that shit down. He apologized, though. He apologized. And then you got to understand this, too. Oh, yeah.

If you ever go to a battle and you get upset, sometimes you take it too far. And sometimes your friend got to check you. I mean, I've been in that situation where I went too far up here. And usually he'd be like, E, chill out. Or Charlotte would be like, E, chill out. And that's what he did. And he apologized after. We all make mistakes. And he apologized'd be like, E, chill out, or Charlotte would be like, E, chill out. And that's what he did, and he apologized after. We all make mistakes,

and he apologized. He said, Lil Mo Flowers apologized to Vita. He did what was right. He was in his feelings, though, isn't he? He was in his feelings, bro. He was in Walmart.

He was in the Bronx. He was Trinity Ave. He was ready to go to war. Hey! I was dragging it. I dragged him across the stage all night. It was bad. The bad boys lost this one, man. They lost this one. Well, thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? It was bad.

Well, thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? You sound mad. Why you sound so mad? to pick up my daughter up late last night. She went to the J. Cole concert last night. Concert was supposed to start at 8 o'clock and end by until after 11 o'clock. She said her voice was bad. She said,

I apologize. I didn't come home until later. And yeah, I'm pissed because now I got to be to work and I only got a little bit of sleep.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. But on the flip side, your daughter had a great time last night and you're a great mom for supporting that. No, she didn't have a great time last night, and you're a great mom for supporting that. No, she didn't have a good time. She was disappointed.

Oh. She was disappointed. Almost two rounds for tickets, and she didn't get what she wanted. Oh, damn. Okay. Well, sorry. I'm sorry, Mama. I'm sorry.

Who do we need to call? Nobody, but. All righty. She sound pissed. She was so mad. She got to go to work. She was going to be in bed by 12. Take her to bed by 3.

I'm not going to lie. That happens to me all the time. I be planning out my night like, okay, I'm going to get four hours of sleep. I'm going to get it and then when it doesn't work out, I be tight. Alright, well it looks like J. Cole apologized. He said, Philly and Detroit off-season tour. We've been hitting delays on shows because the production is taking too long

for the crew to put up. I apologize for the inconvenience. I hate playing with people's time and money. We working to get it sorted out. And what people got to understand and not to say that

this is right, but you know when these tours go from city to city, they travel from city to city. So, you know, the next tour let's say is in Philly. They have to leave

North Carolina and they have to break down and they have to drive to Philly. Then they have to put everything back up together, do testing and all that stuff and then when they leave they got to break down and go to have to drive to Philly, then they have to put everything back up together, do testing and all that stuff and then when they leave, they gotta break down and go to

another city and sometimes there are delays, whether it's on the road, it could have been weather or it could have been anything with delays but it does happen, but three hours is definitely disrespectful, but they apologized Alright, now, up next, ask Yee, 800-585-1051 if you need

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

Call up now for Ask Ye. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Ye.

And we have Dani on the line. Now, Dani called earlier, and she had a very strange situation. Now, Dani, what happened this morning? Oh, so this happened over the weekend, like last weekend. I got kicked out of my ex's house naked, and he bust my back window out. So why did he kick you out? So somebody texted my phone and said, are you okay? Because there was an accidental A-time call.

But I had my phone on vibrate, and it just still went bad. So the person who texted your phone, it was somebody knew that you're dating? We're not dating. We're just casually talking. So it was an accident, and he blew up. So you were cheating on your boyfriend? No, it's her ex-boyfriend. Ex-boyfriend, yeah, but we were still dealing around.

Okay, a couple of things here. No matter what, right? If you catch somebody cheating on you or whatever happens, you shouldn't kick somebody naked out of your house and throw a brick at their window. To me, that's a red flag that that's not somebody you need to be with at all, period. So was he normally this volatile? So are you thinking that you're in the wrong and you're apologetic? Or what's happening?

No, I'm not in the wrong. I even went down to the police and everything. And I'm on my line like, can you stop these charges, please? And I'm just like, oh, my God. And my mom's even like, if you stop these charges, I'm going to stop talking to you. I'm like, oh, my God. I mean, I'm not going to front. I know this is askeye,

but I understand why he got upset, but throwing you out naked and throwing a brick through your window is crazy. It's complete disrespect. It is crazy disrespectful.

It was so embarrassing. It was really embarrassing. It wasn't even about the car because the car can get fixed. It was about the humiliation and the embarrassment. And also, that's violent. What if you would have crashed?

What if that brick would have hit you? What if the glass, you know what I'm saying? He endangered your life. Exactly. I just forgot I had clothes in my car. Oh, so you couldn't even get your clothes. Where's your wallet and your pocketbook? I had that.

I had all that. Oh, so you grabbed your wallet and pocketbook and took off. It was bad. And what time of the day was it? This was in the morning. Like, it was like, the sun wasn't even out yet. So people were outside?

No, nobody was outside. That's why I was happy. And for him to kick you out, was he physically pushing you? Yes. I got sprains, bruises, everything on my leg. Oh, hell no.

He threw you out like Jazzy Jeff. So he threw you like, oh, like threw you out. Yes, like some Uncle Phil. The fact that he put his hands on you, insane. What are you advising him to do? I mean, what is there to do? Never talk to him again.

Like your mother said, you press charges. Go on ahead and press those charges. Look, you would have been in the wrong if that would have, well, not even because you guys were just still messing around, but not together. I just think that he really overreacted. That was uncalled for. That's above overreacting.

He has a problem. Yes, he does. I don't think a woman should do that to a man. I don't think a man should do that to a woman when you get angry. If your first response is to put your hands on somebody, physically do that to them, try to humiliate and embarrass them, and then also destroy their property, that's a few different things going on okay I agree with your mama why you got an extra change it goes in the car just just for this reason

right here oh my goodness all right mama jeesh ask ye 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice or any type of advice or anything call you right now it's the breakfast club good morning get some real advice with angela ye it's ask ye morning everybody it's dj envy angela, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? This is Deanna from Trinidad.

Hey, what's your question for Yee? I'm just trying to see how do I handle with my boyfriend. My kid's dad just came back from out of state. About three years now. And my boyfriend is getting kind of really jealous. And he thinks that I kind of pretty much, he's like, he takes me, he was like, well, if you would tell me if you still want him, right?

And I'm like, I told you plenty of times, because he came about three years ago. And I was like, that's a wrap. I don't do abusive relationships. So my boyfriend is really jealous. Okay. He's not just jealous, but also insecure, right? Yeah. And that is unattractive. But look, at jealous, but also insecure, right? Yeah. And that is unattractive.

But look, at the end of the day, and I can tell this is how you feel. Your kids come first, but of course you value your boyfriend. So at this point, it's not something that he's used to. This is something different in the relationship because your children's father hasn't been around prior to this really, right? Right. So you also have to look at it from his point of view because it is causing him to be insecure and he's asking you these questions. And understandably, like if he had an ex that he had children with that you never had to deal with

and then all of a sudden she was back around, you might feel a little bit of insecurity as well. I mean, it's somewhat like that because he has a lot of kids, but he has custody of half of them. I mean, I get it. I understand. But like I told him, my kids dad hit me. So that's like a nun.

And I don't do that. So I just want him to understand. But he feel like, okay, maybe he still wants him. Yeah, you know what? All you can do is ask him, how can you make him feel more comfortable with the situation? And if there's some type of boundaries that he needs for you to set. And, you know, certain things like if he knows that, you know,

your ex is around, make sure that you are still communicating with him and you don't just go ghost. You know, certain things like that. And I think it also takes time for people to feel more comfortable in a situation that's new. This is something brand new. But tell him that. Like within the past week.

Yeah. So you have to give him a moment also to get adjusted. Right. Because he's also trying to protect himself. And so being sympathetic to that, you know, be understanding. Now, if he's nagging you and it's really causing a strain on the relationship in the future, then that's going to be a real issue. But all you can do is have a conversation. Tell him, OK, let's set up some boundaries, some parameters.

I want to make sure you feel as comfortable as possible. I can reassure you a thousand times I would never go back to this person, but I can show you better than I can just tell you. So let's just make sure that we have that understanding because I value you. I value our relationship and I don't want this to come in between us. But I also value my children above everything else. And I do want their father to be in their life. So I want to make sure this works for all of us. Oh, thank you so much.

All right. Because you love your man, right? Of course. I mean, it's like a year and a half. All right. So, yeah, don't let some outside forces that are out of your control mess up your relationship. I'm a big fan of making sure everybody understands in a relationship is us against everybody. Right. Except your kids, because, you know, that comes first.

Of course. All right. So be a little understanding. I will. Thanks so much. No problem. All right. Well, I was asking you eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call Yee. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and earlier, a woman called, and she was upset during Donkey of the Day because she took her daughter to a concert where J. Cole was performing, and things went astray.

It was super late. Everybody was disappointed. Well, we'll tell you what happened from J. Cole's point of view. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's the show, and I hop in it. I got me a milli. I did from J. Cole's point of view. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Baby, you spitting. So Wednesday is hump day, middle of the week.

Good morning, everybody. It's also National Coffee Day. And it's also my brother's birthday. Happy birthday. Yeah. Does your brother still bake food? Yes. When's the last time he brought in anything up here?

Up here? You can't come up here. It's a pandemic. Oh. He usually sends you with food. I have a lot of stuff. Oh, you never share it with me? Okay, I will.

Last time you tried to do some reads and you had an edible, you were stuttering all over the place. You're absolutely right. You're absolutely right. We still have that audio. Oh, my goodness. All right. Well, let's get to the rumors.

Let's talk J. Cole. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor report. Rum my goodness. All right. Well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk J. Cole. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Okay, so in North Carolina, a lot of people were upset about

J. Cole. Now, he had an event at the Greensboro Coliseum. It was supposed to start at 8 p.m., but doors didn't even open until 10, 15 p.m. Now, he had an event at the Greensboro Coliseum. It was supposed to start at 8 p.m., but doors didn't even open until 10, 15 p.m. Now, we found out about this initially because one of our amazing Breakfast Club family members called in this morning and said this.

I got to be to work at 8.30. After picking my daughter up late last night, she went to the J. Cole concert last night. Concert was supposed to start at 8 o'clock and end start until after 11 o'clock. She said her voice was red. She said, I apologize. I didn't come home until later.

And, yeah, I'm pissed because now I got to be at work, and I only got a little bit of sleep. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. But on the flip side, your daughter had a great time last night, and you're a great mom for supporting that. No, she didn't have a great time. She was disappointed. Sheesh. Well, we had to great time last night, and you're a great mom for supporting that. No, she didn't have a great time. She was disappointed. Sheesh.

Well, we had to figure out what happened, and J. Cole has already since apologized and explained that there's been these delays because of production. Here's what he said. They're about to open doors in Greensboro right now. I apologize for the lateness. That's the point of this whole video. When we came out on an off-season tour, we wanted to do this shit got a big ass goal bigger lights than we ever had more lights than we ever had big ass court on the stage and while the show was amazing we didn't account for the fact that

it takes way longer to load this into the house so we experiencing delays so grace bro we're about to open the doors right now we're gonna going to get the show moving. Right. So unfortunately, he was there, he was ready, but production delays and issues and he's apologetic. And by the way, Philly and Detroit, they have some new dates for those shows. Philly, tomorrow's a nine-hour

drive from Greensboro to Philly. It's not enough time for us to get the production from here all the way to Philly and get the show up in all the way to Philly and get the show up in time. So we need to move the Philly show. Also the Detroit show. We have the new dates. Detroit, your new date is October 25th for the off-season tour. Philly, your new date is October 27th. I apologize for the inconvenience. I know people don't hire babysitters. Some people drive in from out of town. I hate this s***.

Yeah, you can tell he really cares, too, to have done that and explained it and let people know exactly what was going on behind the scenes. You know, he's a perfectionist, so I can't imagine that this feels good. Yeah, I know it happens, and I know people are upset, but the bad thing about it, like he said, to get all that in, to load in and load out and to set all that stuff up, is a process and it takes a long time and he wants the show to be great he doesn't want to half-ass you guys on the show you pay all that money for tickets and he wants to give you as the best performance he possibly can so i get it yeah you up the production but not accounting for how much longer it's going to take to set everything up correct and once y'all drive and they got to drive the trucks there any type of delays could happen too. So I'm sure it's a process. All right, now Academics, for his podcast, Off the Record,

he has 21 Savage on the episode that actually drops today. And one of the things that they posted in the teaser is 21 Savage talking about how future is bigger than Drake in Atlanta. If I wasn't a rapper, I don't feel like I still would listen to Drake for real. Like when you ain't no rapper, all them statistics don't mean shit. A regular street don't give a fuck about how many times you went number one.

The farthest they think is the club. Who's selling this club out? That's who they think is the biggest dick. Like, in Atlanta, it's a lot of niggas who you really can't tell them Future ain't bigger than Drake. Really?

On God, nigga. I used to think that. Drake ain't really no big mixtape artist like that. Every Future album I ever heard was a bootleg. Future is huge in Atlanta. I'm not going to lie. But I don't think bigger than Drake. I don't think there's any artist out there that is bigger than Drake

when it comes to this hip-hop culture. I think Drake and Lil Baby. I don't know. And I go to Atlanta free-for-all. Well, this is 21 Savages. You know, he lives in Atlanta. So being from living there and seeing what it's like there I don't know. And I go to Atlanta frequently. Well, this is 21 Savages. You know, he lives in Atlanta. So being from living there and seeing what it's like there and futures from Atlanta.

He's like a hometown hero. I wonder if he meant growing up. I mean, a couple of years ago or right now. I'm curious. He's saying most people there in Atlanta think futures bigger than Drake. Really? Yeah. Because they're not thinking about numbers.

You're not thinking about that. No, no, no. Just the influence of Drake and his music. I mean, he has huge records in the club. But then again, because you're not thinking about numbers, you're not thinking about that. No, no, no. Just the influence of Drake and his music. I mean, he has huge records in the club, but then again, so does Future. That's a great link up, though, when Future and Drake work together. Yeah, they all work with each other anyway, so that's dope, though. Yeah. Alright, now Boosie is saying that his Instagram got

deleted again because he feels like it's because he asked Drake to promote his movie. Now he posted, my IG was taken for nothing again. They must have found out I have a film that I'm promoting. Please continue to buy his movie. Now, he posted, my IG was taken for nothing again. They must have found out I have a film that I'm promoting. Please continue to buy my film, despite this move to stop the success of my struggle. Y'all all I got against these powerful people.

Buy it twice to boost my first week numbers. Thank you. He said, they saw me reach out to Drake for help. SMH, go buy my movie three times. F these people. So he goes on to talk about Adam Aseri who is the head of Instagram

who he feels is responsible if you guys recall we did have Adam on the breakfast club and specifically asked him about Boosie why does Boosie keep getting taken down Adam? we gotta draw the line somewhere it's a nudity policy we try to be clear you can appeal but if you get too many strikes

does Instagram understand culture, though, right? Because you got people like Lil Duval, Lil Boosie, whose page always get taken down. And it could be for doing things like using the N-word. But they're using it in, like, the context of that's my N-word. But it'll get taken down for, like, racial slurs. Really?

Yeah. Yeah, so it's tough because, no, we don't understand culture perfectly at all we're clear you can't at our scale um and so there are things where we just have to we have to draw the line or define a rule that is practical for us to actually enforce all right so that's the explanation and i know earlier you know today is my brother's birthday happy birthday ryan and we were talking about he has made edibles for us before. And we talked about why we cannot give

Envy edibles. And here is the reason why. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it. I'm doing it for me. Let me explain. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it.

I'm doing it for me. Angelique gave me a cookie. One more time. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it. I'm doing it for me. I didn't know what was in that cookie, and I ate it. You did know what it was.

Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. You asked for it. We were up here, and I ate it, and then I tried to do my job, and this is what it sounded like. Oh, now I remember. I'm doing it for me. Yeah.

But it may just be sounding like that sometimes. Oh, my goodness. Anyway, so yes yes and one last thing shout out to my guy Donnell Rawlings he's filming his Netflix special in Charlotte

tonight and tomorrow so if anybody is in Charlotte make sure you check that out I'm actually flying out there because you know I gotta be there cause Donnell's like

Well, that was his last day, and I think he knew that. Yeah, man. They tried to catch him before he left out, the security did, but he had already left out of the building. But they cut his badge off, you know what I'm saying, so he couldn't get back in. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, that was crazy, man. And what did you do when

he puts the supervisor I was like listening to the radio when they was calling for security like security the security you know I'm saying the supervisor was running like somebody help me somebody why did you help him and then he tripped bro he like tripped and fell while he was trying to run and mind you the dude that punch him probably was like 5'2".

He apologized for that. He apologized for that he apologized for that words and stuff like that man and i and i felt josh i i seen the escalation in god's attitude and i felt that same that same rise in disrespect and i thought when he shut that down he apologized though he apologized and then you got to understand this too if you ever if you ever go to a battle you get upset sometimes you take it too far and sometimes your friend got to understand this, too. Oh, yeah. If you ever go to a battle and you get upset, sometimes you take it too far, and sometimes your friend got to check you. I mean, I've been in that situation where I went too far up here,

and usually he'd be like, E, chill out, or Charlotte would be like, E, chill out. And that's what he did, and he apologized after. We all make mistakes, and he apologized. He said, little Mo Flowers apologized to Fede. He did what was right. He was in his feelings, though, Envy. He was in his feelings, bro. He was in war mode.

I got to be to work at 8.30. I have to pick up my daughter up late last night. She went to the J. Cole concert last night. Concert was supposed to start at 8 o'clock. It didn't start until after 11 o'clock. She said her voice was bad. She said, you're apologetic. 21 seconds.

Didn't come on until later. And, yeah, I'm pissed because now I got to be to work, and I only got a little bit of sleep. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. But on the flip side, your daughter had a great time last night, and you're a great mom for supporting that. No, she didn't have a good time. She was disappointed. Oh. She was disappointed.

Almost two rounds for tickets, and she didn't get what she wanted. Oh, damn. Okay. Well, sorry. I'm sorry, Mama. I'm sorry. Who do we need to call? All righty. Oh, damn. Okay. Well, sorry. I'm sorry, Mama. You're fine. Who do we need to call? You're fine.

Well, it looks like J. Cole apologized. He said, Philly and Detroit off-season tour. We've been hitting delays on shows because the production is taking too long for the crew to put up. I apologize for the inconvenience. I hate playing with people's time and money. We working to get it sorted out. And what people got to understand, and not to say that this is right, but, you know, when these tours go from they travel from city to city so you know the next tour let's say is in philly they have to leave north carolina and they have to break down then they have to drive to philly then they have to

put everything back up together do testing and all that stuff and then when they leave they got to break down and go to another city and sometimes there are delays whether it's on the road it could have been weather or it could have been anything with delays but it does happen but three hours is definitely disrespectful.
