I can just go home and cool out for the weekend, get therapy today. Today's a good Friday. Yes. And remember a couple of months ago, I went and spoke to the students at Alabama. I think it was Alabama State. And one of the students, they made some art for us. So let me give you guys the art. How come my frame is smaller? Hey, Angelina, this is for you.

Okay. That's nice. I have that sweatsuit. Charlamagne, this one's for you. Can people see? Yeah, I is for you. I'm with the maid. Okay. I'm with the maid. That's nice. I have that sweatsuit. Charlemagne, this one's for you. Can people see? Yeah, I don't know. But if people are watching this on Revolve TV. I'm giving it to you guys.

I don't know what you're going to do. Turn Charlemagne to me. You got Charlemagne right there. Yeah, it's the thought that counts, kid. Whoever drew those. Whoever drew those, it's the thought that counts. This is mine. If you want to see mine.

Yeah. So what's the student's name? Hakeem Pope. Thank you, Hakeem. It's the thought that counts, This is mine. If you want to see mine. Yeah. So what's the student's name? Hakeem Pope. Thank you, Hakeem. It's the thought that counts, Hakeem. All right. I don't know who that doxian man is with them black lips you got on that picture. My lips ain't that dark.

That was from a couple of years ago. You make it seem like I smoke cigarettes. You know what I'm saying? My lips are a little dark, too. My lips are a little dark. You know what I mean? Everything else is cool. Mine aren't.

Yeah, I don't smoke, bro. Your hair is just gray, Yee, but it's all good. Well, congratulations. But thank you to Hakeem, folks. Thank you, Hakeem. We appreciate you. It will go up. All art is appreciated.

You know why all art is appreciated? Why is that? It's appreciated because people take the time... There you go. ...to do it. You know what I'm saying? It's a lot of time and a lot of energy and a lot of thought that goes in the drawing. I know.

We all need to get some more sleep, according to these pictures, because we all got bags under our eyes. Yeah, even if it don't come out quite the way that, you know, he probably envisioned it in his head. You got hair coming out your ears? Is that hair? Yes, you do. Okay. Well, it's art.

It's whatever. Well, thanks. Well, Megan Thee Stallion will be joining us this morning. Megan Thee Stallion. She's never been here before. No, she's never been here before. She has a new EP that's out today, so we'll kick it with Megan Thee Stallion. It's called Sugar here before. No, she's never been here before. She has a new EP that's out today, so we'll kick it with Megan Thee Stallion. Sugar.

Sugar. That's her alter ego. Yeah. Plus, she had all that contract, this little contract dispute going on. Controversy, yeah. Yeah. And Jadakiss. The OG.

OG in the game. Ignatius is his album. Yeah, so we'll kick it with Jadakiss. So we got a lot going on. And then we got front page news. What are we talking about? We are going to be talking about Nathaniel Woods. He was executed in Alabama yesterday.

And we'll tell you what ended up happening. I thought there was going to be a stay of execution. Apparently, the governor did not decide to do that. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Where do we start with you? Well, let's start with nathaniel woods he was executed yesterday in alabama governor k ivy refused to stop the controversial execution now if you don't know the story of what happened nathaniel woods was executed for the 2004 murders of three cops in birmingham apparently he was inside of uh as his co-defendant called it they were in a crack house where they worked.

They said you always have to have your gun on you if you're inside that apartment. And apparently these cops were, two police officers were inside the apartment trying to train their guns on him. This is according to his co-defendant. And he said, when I looked to the side, there were two police officers trying to train their guns on me. So I opened fire with the effing rifle. I wasn't trying to get shot, period.

I got a rifle in my hand. They're going to shoot me. He said he didn't care. The men in the house were policemen. He said, you point a gun at me, bitch. I'm fixing to shoot. Now, according to. What?

Yes, this is all according to his co-defendant, Spencer, Kerry Spencer. Now, Kerry Spencer is saying that Nathaniel Woods is innocent. He said he's the one that actually shot the police officers. And he said, when I opened fire, Nate jumped as if he was getting shot. And once he seen he wasn't getting shot, when I kept firing, he took off. So his co-defendant is even taking the blame for all of the killings. But yet he was still executed. They did try to get a stay of execution at the last minute after there was a temporary halt.

Only minutes before he was scheduled to die, but the governor refused to stop the execution. Well, two things I was thinking about yesterday. Number one, why would, well, at least why did I just hear about this case, like, literally maybe 48 hours ago? And number two, if the guy admitted that he did it, why would he be in custody to begin with? Why would... Nate Woods, if the other guy admitted he did it, why would he be in custody to begin with? Why would... Nate Woods, if the other guy admitted he did it. Listen, it's you know what it is, I think it's three police officers and that's unfortunate that three

police officers got killed, of course, and their families have not yet made a statement, but... Yeah, it's odd that they would still allow that to happen if the guy said it was him. Yeah, you got a confession. The guy's right there. The guy said, I did it. He said, I did all, I killed all three of them. He ran. So what happened to him?

Well, he's right now still in jail. And he's appealing. He's trying to appeal his federal appeal pending. So I don't know what's going to end up happening to him, but that's very confusing to me. Alright, Tulsi Gabbard,

you know, she's still running for president. Why? She's actually not running. At this point, she's just walking slow. I've been wondering what happened to her because I was like, I don't remember her making a statement dropping out of the race. But she got two pledged delegates in the nominating contest so far.

Both of those were in American Samoa, a U.S. territory, that Bloomberg actually won on Super Tuesday. She has not polled above 1% in recent national surveys, but she will be in Vegas this weekend to campaign. For what? Come on. Drop your ego, young woman. It's over. All right?

If Elizabeth Warren dropped out and people actually had a chance, Mayor Pete, like, give it up. Well, here is Elizabeth Warren, who's ended her presidential campaign yesterday. I will not be running for president in 2020, but I guarantee I will stay in the fight for the hardworking folks across this country who've gotten short into the stick over and over. One of the hardest parts of this is all those promises and all those little girls who are going to have to wait four more years. She goes on to say that she's not yet endorsing anyone. Not today. Not today.

I need some space around this and want to take a little time to think a little more. Interesting. I was hearing Bernie Sanders might introduce his running mate today. Really? And people were speculating that it might be Elizabeth Warren. I don't know. All right, well, Donald Trump, of course, commented, Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren, who is going nowhere

except into Minnie Mike's head, just dropped out of the Democratic primary three days too late. She caused crazy Bernie at least Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Texas probably cost him the nomination, came in third in Massachusetts. Dropping a clues box with Donald Trump, damn it. He's relentless. Consistent.

Get a man a bomb. Nope. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Front Page News. That's disrespectful, okay? Y'all can't ever be objective, okay? No. When he says something that's funny, give him his credit, okay? No.

Nobody wants to give. The man is consistent, if anything else. That is one thing you can say. One thing that nobody on the other side seems to be. That man has a message, and he sticks to it, God damn it. He sticks to it. It doesn't matter who says anything. He stays straight with that message. All right.

Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. Maybe you had a bad morning, horrible morning, or maybe you feel blessed. Maybe you're happy it's Friday. Whatever it may be. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club.

Hello, who's this? This is Jackie. Hey, Jackie. From South Carolina. Good morning, Jackie, from South Carolina. Get it off your chest. Jackie, Jackie, Jackie, Jackie. What's up?

I was also raised, I just want to put that out there. But anyway, I just wanted to talk about the coronavirus. And I feel like this is going to be like the humbling thing for Americans or for the whole world. Because it can't be controlled, you know? I feel what you're saying, Jackie, but it's not strong enough. It's not strong enough. We've had this kind of scare before. With Ebola and Zika and West Nile and all of that stuff like that.

I get what you're saying, though. America does need a humbling. I don't think this is it yet, though. Oh, okay. Maybe. I mean, I could be wrong. Maybe. Because it's like, it's way, things are happening way worse than it used to be, you know?

That's what my grandma said 40 years ago. My grandma used to say that every day. She said that yesterday. She said that what? She said that yesterday. I'm telling you, my grandma used to say that all the time. I never seen a time like this, baby. Hello, who's this?

Hi, this is Tracy. How you doing this morning? Hey, Tracy, good morning. Hi. You know what? I want to thank God that I discovered that I wasn't cynical. I just acquired wisdom when you get over the age of 40. And I'm going to tell you what happened.

I was looking at Rambo. I haven't seen that since I was a kid, years ago. And Rambo does this speech where he says, when my son blew up all over me, and he said, I want to go home, I want to go home. And I'm saying, well, I want to take you home, but you ain't got no legs. Were you talking about Rambo the movie?

Yeah, yeah. The rest of the world. He said, you ain't got no legs. Yeah, you ain't got no legs. And I was like, this is a great, it made me cry. When I saw it again yesterday, I started laughing my butt off. I said, why am I laughing at something like that? A person got their legs blown up in Vietnam.

And then I evaluated it. I said, I'm laughing because black people, when they go to war, they go for specific reasons. They go for personal reasons. Tracy, Tracy, Tracy. They also go to get the, you know, for, you know, for, you know, de Tracy, Tracy, Queen, Queen, Queen, Queen. Six o'clock in the morning, Queen. What's up? You have a good morning.

First of all, yo, I got to drop one of Kool's bombs for Angela Yee, son. Okay. Hey, yo. Son, we went on Instagram Live like two days ago, and she said, Mello, get off your phone. That's dangerous. Oh, because he was driving. Literally, 15 seconds later, I got pulled over for having my phone. I was like, bro, I was just on Live with Angela Yee.

He said, you're lying. I'm like, I'm so serious. He said, show me proof, and I will not give you a ticket. And I showed him proof. He didn't give me a ticket. He actually gave me a PBA card. So we got to drop on the cruise line for over the weekend. Wow.

That's amazing. Don't put his name out there now. Yeah, don't tell on him. But, you know, that's dope. Yeah, I was doing Instagram Live. And I was like, who wants to? My goddaughter was with me. And she was like, let's let somebody join in the live.

So we let Mello join in. And I saw that he was driving and I said, dude, you can't be on live while you're driving. I mean, you saved my life though. It's lit. Goodbye, Mello, man. For everybody that's like taking pictures, driving though and on their phone and on live and doing all that, stop. Just wait.

So traffic going to be real jacked up today, man. I'm totally upset about it. I wanted to call with Bob. It's a Friday, but got that news. And traffic is already jacked up in Atlanta. So I can imagine on a Friday, Lord have mercy, the president coming. Maybe you should work from home. They shut the whole highway down.

Whatever highway he travels on, they shut that whole highway down for him to travel. So it's going to be crazy today. But either way, enjoy y'all Friday. Have a good one. Love the show. Now, I'm going to be honest with you. Today is one of those days, Atlanta. Might call out.

I understand. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. Now we got rumors on the way, Yee. Yes, we'll talk about Demi Lovato and her eating disorder. She was talking about how her old manager and her old management team actually made her eating disorder even worse.

Okay, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor report.

Rumor report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So Demi Lovato was on Ellen, and some of the things that she discussed was her eating disorder and how that led to her near-fatal overdose. Now, first she talks about how her old management team pretty much was very controlling over her, including the things that she would eat.

My life, I just felt it was so, and I hate to use this word, but I felt like it was controlled by so many people around me that if I was in my hotel room at night, they would take the phone out of the hotel room so I couldn't call room service. If there was fruit in my room, they took it out because that's extra sugar. Like, we're not talking about like brownies and cookies and candies and stuff like that. It's like, it was fruit, you know? And for many years, I didn't even have a birthday cake. Like, I had a watermelon cake. They would cut her watermelon into the shape of a cake. That's racist. What? A watermelon cake is not racist.

Yes, it is. Give me one to see if I don't scream racism. Well, she's not black. That's true. So in addition to that, she talks more about actually relapsing because of all of this control. You know, I have to preface it with the fact that I got sober at 19. But I realized that over time, as, you know, the things with the eating disorder were getting bad, I mean, led me to being really, really unhappy.

My bulimia got really bad, and I asked for help, and I didn't receive the help that I needed. I'm six years sober, but I'm miserable. I'm even more miserable than I was when I was drinking. Why am I sober? And I reached out to the people that were on my team, and they responded with, like, you're being very selfish. This would ruin things for not just you, but for us as well.

Well, damn. She goes on to talk more about her relapse. And when I heard that, my core issues are abandonment from my birth father as a child. Like, he was an addict, alcoholic. Like, we had to leave him, and I have vivid memories of him leaving. So when they left, they totally played on that fear,

and I felt completely abandoned, so I drank. And that night I went to a party, and there was other stuff there, and it was only three months before I ended up in the hospital with an OD. And, you know, ultimately, like, I made the decisions that got me to where I am today. Listen, very important to know what your core issues are. When you know what your core issues are, When you know what your core issues are, when you know what your triggers are,

it's easy to manage whatever it is that, I'm not going to say easy, easier to manage whatever it is you're going through. So I'm glad she knows what her core issues are. Right, and now she has a new team. Scooter Braun is her manager. She said she had the best birthday cake, and she said she finally got to eat cake,

and she was crying. And she does feel grateful that she has a manager who she said didn't need anything from me and who loved me for who I am and supported my journey. Salute to Scooter Braun for getting her that birthday cake. Just make sure that he's not giving you that birthday cake in exchange for your master's, Demi. You know how Scooter does.

Dropping a goosebumps for Scooter Braun. Stop it, man. Good businessman right there. All right, now, old dirty bastard, ODB, his widow is thanking fans for support and the way that she's doing that. You know, it was 25 years ago that ODB released, well, that they released the Return to the 36 Chambers, the dirty version. And so in commemoration, they are going to be re-releasing the album and also including new remixes, B-sides. It's going to be 43 tracks on there.

So they'll also drop previously unreleased stripped-down versions of two of his biggest hits as well. There's a lot of ODB music floating around that people haven't heard yet. I love ODB, man. I will say this. I was watching the Brooklyn Zoo video the other day because, you know, I go down my Wu-Tang rabbit holes. Very unsanitary video.

I mean, all I could think about was him spreading the coronavirus throughout that whole video. It's one part of the video where he digs in his nose and draws on the wall with the book. Does he? Yes, man.

He's the old Dirty Bastard. Yes. I remember when I worked for Wu-Tang, Dirty didn't go to his own video shoot, right, when he was signed. He had a video,

I think it was for Got Your Money with Khalees on the hook. And if you notice in the video, he's not in it. That is true. So they were mad about that, but he did show up for Jizz's video shoot. And so the label wouldn't let the song come out because they were mad he didn't do his own video. He was a little confused.

But he showed up for Jizz's video. Yeah, he went to all the video shoots. Very pointless to use hand sanitizer at an old dirty bathroom video shoot, I would assume. And then we had a lot of clothes there. They took all the clothes. It was a mess. But, you know, he was definitely a fun and interesting character. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.

All right, we got front page news next. What are we talking about? Yes, we'll give you coronavirus updates. Okay, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJNV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. What are we talking about, Yee? Coronavirus update. Right now there are 205 cases of novel coronavirus in the U.S. There's one person now they're saying a possible person in Georgia also. That would be three people in Georgia. If this person who is now being tested does have coronavirus.

I've been watching videos too on the news of people who actually are quarantined and what's going on in their homes. One young girl was on there saying that she just she has a little brother who has asthma, so they're just taking extra precautions, keeping her away from everybody, and she has to be quarantined for 10 more days. I had a question about that. So if you do

have the coronavirus, right, does it just go through your system like the flu would? Yeah, you have to just make sure you're... So after, I guess, what, 14 days whatever, maybe it goes through your system and then you good again? Or how does that work? I guess you just don't want to infect other people. It is kind of like the same symptoms

as the flu. They said don't go to the hospital. If you think you have it, call them. And if you start feeling extremely sick, like, you know, shortness of breath, fatigue, it's not going away. If you have a fever, that's when you really have to be concerned and get treatment. But if it's just like you're a little bit like a cold, then you don't have to worry about that.

Oh, you know, the way my anxiety is set up, I've thought I've had it all week long. Scratchy throat, sniffles, coughs. I don't know if I have a little cold. Why are you coming in? I don't know if I want to call the hospital. But why you coming in? Because I realize it's winter time and I was on two flights this week as well. So, you know, a lot of times that I be on these flights,

you know, I feel like that anyway. You're selfish, bro. You come here, you think you have it, you gonna come here and infect all of us? The only reason I think I have it is because I keep seeing it in the media over and over, okay? I wouldn't be thinking about no goddamn coronavirus if this thing wasn't in the media over and over. Now, all weekend long, I'm going to be like,

Sean LeMay had it, now I think I got it. I'm sniffling, now I got it. Well, that's the way anxiety works, sir. All right, well, you guys. That is what I'm spreading this morning. Great. Great. Anxiety virus.

And Colorado has reported their first two cases, by the way. And there are three cases of coronavirus in Maryland, as well as the lab has tested some of these samples from different patients. So just keeping you updated on what's going on. And it does bring up a good point, which is rare.

When does the recovery happen? Like, that's what we want to know. When are they going to start telling us some of the recovery stories? You know what? It has to be some recovery stories. Yeah, a lot of people have recovered because most people don't die from it.

A lot of people have. Well, they need to tell us more of that. That would ease the tensions and the fears in America. When it runs through your system, are you good? Can you catch it again? You know, like,

how does it work? You know, I think it's such a novel thing that they don't have all the information right now. I want that part, though. You know, how long does it go through my system?

But the Senate has approved $8.3 billion for a coronavirus response package. You call it that much? It's a whole response package. It's called that much? It's a whole response package. So what they're trying to do is fight the spread of the disease with this package. Yeah, Theraflu.

Something I was looking at online yesterday was $100. Hand sanitizer. Hand sanitizer was $100. Yeah, expensive as hell. But they're trying to also stop all that price gouging. It's sold out everywhere, though. It's sold out in supermarkets. It's sold out in Costco and BJ's. It's sold out everywhere, though. It's sold out in supermarkets. It's sold out in Costco and BJ's.

It's sold out everywhere. Not at the dollar store. I went to the dollar store yesterday. I saw some yesterday in the store. Really? Yeah. All I know is that you're very selfish if you're still trying to dap people up

during this coronavirus era. Give people a pound to touch elbow to elbow, bro. All right, and if you haven't heard, Elizabeth Warren has dropped out of the presidential campaign. She has ended that. She is also saying right now she is not endorsing anybody

in case you were wondering. So here is Elizabeth Warren. Not today. Not today. I need some space around this and I want to take a little time to think a little more. It's a rumor that Bernie Sanders is going to announce his running mate. Today? I mean, I think today. That's a rumor. Very. I don't know if it's a good rumor. All right. Well, she should have definitely endorsed him then.

Yeah, but it might be Elizabeth Warren. That's whispers. Okay. I don't believe it, though. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Front Page News. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee.

Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. This is her first time here. Finally. Meg Thee Stallion. Come on, give Meg some round of applause. That's right. God damn it.

Get the energy right in here. God damn it. A.K.A. Sugar, A.K.A. Tina Snow in the building. Alba's out right now. Now, let's start. For people that don't know, how did Meg Thee Stallion

start out as a rapper? How did you get into this rap game? So my mom was a rapper and like every day after school and when she would get off work,

I would see her in her room writing and stuff and then she would be like going to the studio and I would be in the little waiting room and I'm pretty sure

she thought I was in there doing like little kid stuff but I would be like listening at the door like okay, yeah, yeah. And I really thought it was normal. I kind of low-key thought everybody's mom

was doing that. Everybody's mom was rapping. Yeah, I didn't know. So like, I don't know, it was just normal. So I would eventually like start stealing her CDs with like all her instrumentals on there and like start sneaking and writing. And then she'll be like asking like, have you seen my CDs? And I'll be like, no. And then like eventually

when I graduated from high school, I was like, I can rap. And she was like, no, you can't. And I was like, yeah, I can. from high school, I was like, I can rap. And she was like, no, you can't. And I was like, yeah, I can. She was like, let me hear you. So I started rapping, and she was like, oh, my God. You can rap. Do you remember the first verse you spit for her?

I really don't remember what I was saying, but I remember I rapped over, like, the I'm Different beat by 2 Chainz. Okay. And she was like, oh, shit. So then, ever since then, like, I don't think she still even took me seriously then. So I started going to the studio on my own. And so when she knew I was at the studio by myself and stuff, she was like, oh, hell no, I'm going to manage you. And we doing this.

She probably was raw, too. I was exactly how I rap now. Like, I was talking probably a little more crazier back then. And she said, you ain't living that life. I was like, mama, don't be mad. I'm a curse, okay? And she was like, okay. I don't think she knew exactly how hard I was about to go.

And she was like, I don't know where your mouth came from. And only thing my mama ever played for me was like Pimp C, UGK. Oh, yes. There you go. That's what it came from, mom. Like my daddy only played 3-6 Mafia. So I'm like, I don't understand why y'all not figuring out why I'm talking like this. I read somewhere that Pimp C's's wife wanted to she had vocals for you

that she wanted yeah did you ever do that i mean i got the vocals i got vocals from her and juicy j so i mean i was working i'm still working on my album like i had to hurry up and put together the ep like of songs that i just really like that i recorded so far but like stuff like that i really like to take my time on because i really look up to pimpsi so i really wanted to i want to do the song right how long did it take for for you to I don't want to say pop but to actually pop because it seems like on the outside world it seems like it was fast so it seems like it was a little rumbling and then it was gone. I feel like I'm still getting there like I don't feel like I'm just like I don't

feel like I've like popped. How many platinum singles you got already? Three. I mean. No, you got the right attitude. That's true. They don't really count until you put out a debut album. Right. I feel like I just got a lot more work to do. Like I like to work.

I like to hustle. I don't feel like nothing should just be given to me like I really do want to work for. What do you think the shift was? Do you think it was the Wale song, the pole dancing? Definitely that was one of the big moments for me. Everybody knows I used to do a lot of Cyphers. That's where stuff started going viral from.

And then Wale was like the first big artist to reach out to me and say, I want to do a song with Meg. And my manager at the time called me, he's like, Wale want to talk to you. I was like, Wale, Wale? Like, Wale? You think he was trying to holler at first or to you I was like Wale Wale Like Wale You think he was Trying to holler at first Or you think it was about me

No like as soon as I met him Like I met him in the studio And he just played A bunch of records And I heard When he played pole dance I was like oh duh Like I'm gonna do this one

So we just been like Really close ever since Why you think Pimp C Don't get the proper Recognition that he deserves I saw somebody post The other day They said if y'all

Worried about If Boosie offended y'all, y'all would have hated Pimp C. Yeah, he's just very Southern, like, and sometimes people from the South, like, stick to that old Southern way, like, that old Southern mentality. And, like, a lot of the times

I feel like a lot, just Southern rap in general doesn't really get the respect that it deserves. Even now? I mean, even now. They've been running for the past 25 years at least. They respect the South now. I feel like a lot of the times people don't get it. I hear when I go different places, they're like,

oh, I like your accent, but I can't really hear it. But when you're from someplace different, because people will tell me I have an accent, and I'm like, I don't have an accent. If I'm in the South, they'll tell me that. Definitely you have an accent. See, and I look at you like, Meg definitely have an accent and I'm like, I don't have an accent. Like, if I'm in the South, they'll tell me that. Definitely you have an accent. See, and the Alligator too, like, Meg definitely has an accent too. I feel like people not used to it.

Like, the way we, I feel like maybe we talk a little slower. Like, I don't know. I just feel like sometimes people don't really catch the music. Like, of course, like Juvenile, like Lil Wayne, like, I don't know. Lyricists. Those are lyricists though. Yeah. But I feel like it's still catching on.

Like, it's still growing. You think that sometimes people misjudge, like, looking from the outside with, you know, hot girl and all of that. Because I looked at it, and we were trying to have this discussion on just being, like, somebody about your business as a woman that is independent, taking care of yourself. You go to school, TSU. Shout out to TSU. Shout out to TSU. Because they're so proud of you. But sometimes people think that means you're just out here hoeing and thotting.

And they think that's what it is. Being a hot girl, you know, it really started off as me really just letting everybody know what type of summer I was about to have. Like, me just being unapologetic. Me just doing what I want to do, not really caring about anybody else's opinion. Like, me just being me. You know, just doing what we want to do not really caring about anybody else's opinion, like me just being me, you know, just doing what we want to do as women. Like we shouldn't be trying to fit into like a certain standard that people try to put us in, a certain box people try to put us in.

You should just do what makes you happy. Now when the boys got involved, it was like, oh, yeah, y'all on that high girl, y'all think y'all this. And then it turned into like a whole like battle. High girl versus city boy. Yeah, I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Y'all making this shit up. It wasn't.

You've all started that shit. Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa. Y'all making this shit up. It wasn't. You've all started that shit. Yeah, well, they drug it. I was like, damn, like, high girls, like, shit I was seeing. They was like, yeah, real high girls. I was like. That's not what it was. I wondered, what did you do for the fall? I went, it's a high girl semester.

Oh. We went back to school. Yeah, we went back to school. And how was that going? I seen you studying when you was a person and all that. I'm taking quizzes every other day, doing homework. Like, I try to get it in when I can. What's your GPA?

Oh. Busy. No, I got like a, maybe like a 2.7, 2.8 right now. It could be better. What's your major? Health administration. Do you really want to do that? Like, why are you still in school at this point?

Like, what is the, it's got to be a reason. So, to take it from the beginning, when you go to college, I feel like half the time a lot of people are only going to college because that's what their parents told them to do. Parents made them do it. Right. So I don't think that you even go to college knowing exactly what you want to do. Like, that's where I was at with it. My grandmother told me I should go to school to be a nurse. And I was like, okay, well, my grandma said do it.

I guess I'll do it. But I always knew what I really wanted to do. I just hadn't told my family. So I went anyway and I will be sitting in class super bored. Like I'll be like, oh my God, I don't want to be here. Like I'm writing raps and shit. Like I was just like, damn, I don't want to be here, but I don't want to drop out because I don't want to disappoint my family. So I'm like, well, what can I do to like stay here, but actually be interested interested so I changed my major to business management and I still didn't like it I was still bored I was not interested so I had left PV and I had got a job and I was still doing classes online at like HTC because I didn't want to not be in school completely I just didn't know what I wanted to do with myself because I wanted to rap but I

still wasn't like I knew my grandmother wouldn't like it. So it was something I was hiding from her too. So finally I was like, you know what, I'm going to just go back to school, but I really need to figure out what I want to do. So I knew that I wanted to be in the health field, but I knew I didn't want to be a doctor. I knew I didn't want to be a nurse. I was like, well, what is it? I just knew I wanted to help.

So I told my grandma where I was at with it. I was like, I really want to run some shit. Maybe I could be the head of the hospital. I don't know. And she was like, you know what you should look into? Healthcare administration. And TSU had the major. So once I started going to TSU, now I'm actually, like, learning,

and I'm making A's, and I'm paying attention. And then I figured out, you know what? What I'm learning to hear, a lady had came and spoke, and she, like, ran an assisted living facility. So I was like, that sounds like something I would really want to get into. And my grandmother, I watched her take care of my great-grandmother for a long time. And I'm like, no, definitely

this can't be only going on in my family and what I'm seeing. So I was like, I want to open up some assisted living facilities. That's dope. That's entrepreneurship. So that's what I really want to do now. And since I'm, you know, I've already been going to school for so long, I might as well keep it going. How many more credits do you need to finish?

I think I need maybe like six more classes. But I'm taking them like two at a time, so that's why it's going slow because I am. We got to get the GPA up, though. We got to get the GPA up. At least a 3.0. I got to get a 3. I want to be better, and I want to do better, but I'm trying.

You'll be working. You're thinking about life after that. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, we got more with Megan Thee Stallion. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

E.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Megan Thee Stallion. Charlamagne? You celebrated a boy date last month. Your boy date's on February 15th, right? Yep. So does a hot girl expect a Valentine's Day gift and a goddamn birthday party?

Hell yeah. I mean, give some both days. What if you get a car? You still expect another present or is that a joint gift? So, okay, so is the car for Valentine's Day or my birthday? Wow, that's great. It can't be a joint one? A car? That might be a joint gift. A whole car can't cover both days. No, no, no. You give a car for birthday

and then gas for Valentine's Day. A gas cart. Even if it's gas, like, it's still gotta be some type of celebration. Like, I walk in the house and there's flowers all all over the place, and then it's like the little thing of gas. And I'm a little full. Like, baby, I got you some gas for your car. There you go. I got to say, if somebody bought you a Lamborghini truck on Valentine's Day, I don't think they have to get you something. Well, we can go to dinner the next day.

Okay, and you can drive. I still want it to be a celebration. Okay. Yeah. Now, you would be a good side chick, right? I'll tell you why be a celebration. Okay. Now, you would be a good side chick, right? I'll tell you why. You can be with Jermaine on Valentine's, but then be with you on side chick appreciation day,

which is the next day, but it's also your birthday. She went both days. My birthday's real public, so it really wouldn't be a side chick thing. I know, but she would still make you feel special. I need you on both days. I could lie to you about my girl. Don't lie.

Don't lie. I'm going to find out. She's going Don't lie. I'm going to find out. She's going to find out. Somebody's going to find out. When did you know that you was about to be out of here, just as far as achieving the levels that you've achieved? I know there has to be some point when you were like, damn, this is really happening the way that I want it to.

Was there a moment that you were like, damn, look at me. I'm on this tour Or I got this person When I did my first tour With Meek and Future When I even Got the offer I was like Damn they know me they want me to go on tour with them So I just felt like

I felt super lit I was like oh wow It surprises me who knows me I think highly of Meek and Future So I'm like oh wow That's crazy that y' I don't. It surprises me who knows me. Like, I think, you know, highly of me in future. So I'm like, oh, wow. That's crazy that y'all want me to come on tour with y'all. Did Beyonce know you before all this, too? Because I see y'all in pictures.

I don't know when she found out about me, but I was so happy when I met her. Like, I couldn't believe it. They invited us to their home on New Year's. The Carters. Yes, the Carters. What did that house look like? It was crazy. Damn near looked like a museum.

Damn. But when Jay had invited me to the house for the party, I told my whole team, I was like, okay, y'all, look, I got a show today, but we got to make sure that I make it to this party on time. Like, I don't want to f*** up. This is my first time meeting Beyonce. I want to do it right. So, literally, my stylist brought my,

because it was a pajama party, too. He brought my outfit to my show super late. So, the GPS, I remember just looking at the GPS and it said we was going to be there in seven minutes. It was already damn near 12. I was in the car. I was about to cry. And I was like, you made me miss Beyonce party.

I f***ing hate you. Like, we literally ran in their house at 11.59. And then everybody's like, boo-hoo. And I was like, oh my God, we made it. I couldn't believe it.

The Carters had a pajama party for New Year's Eve? Yeah. But everybody, of course, everybody's pajamas were like super nice. Right.

Wow. You're in shock. Like, I don't get invited. Was it a sleepover? No, it wasn't a sleepover, but I don't know why I was in pajamas. But it was really nice, though. But I don't even, I was so pissed because he brought me like these old fancy ass pajamas and I didn't even wear the fancy ones.

Give us a little inside peek at that Illuminati life. Now, who was at this party? Goodness gracious. I don't know nothing about the Illuminati. It really be blowing my mind when I see people say that. Like, oh yeah know nothing about the Illuminati. It really be blowing my mind when I see people say that. Like, oh yeah, she's

in the Illuminati. Now I be like, bitch, I don't even know how to get in that shit. I gotta do some research on the Illuminati. Okay, I gotta look that up. I don't even think

black people can be in the Illuminati. Yeah, it's disrespectful because people act like they don't believe in God and hard work. It only seems like black people do that

to each other. It's like, how can you discredit these people for working all their motherfucking life, and now since they're doing so well, they got to be down with the devil? Right. Like, God ain't real. Yeah.

And you get to see Meg's throwbacks of her freestyling in the cypher, so you can see how long it's been happening, and that she was nice back then. See how she avoided answering who was at that party, though. Who was the children? You know, I don't like telling nobody business. Look up the pictures online, right? You can just do that. We've seen in the press that, you know,

you're trying to get released from your contract. How is that going? So, actually, I'm not trying to get released from my contract. I just wanted to, you know, renegotiate some things in my contract. And how is that going? Well, it's going. But, I mean, you know, a lot of things I can't say because it's legal. I got to handle it in court.

But, I mean, things are public information. We got the contracts right here. I didn't want to talk about this just yet because I just met you. Someone just, you know. But since we're talking about it. Now, 1501 Records, what have they done for the career of Megan and Stassi? Um, so,

when I first got signed, um, it was Carl and T-Ferris and, you know, everybody was super nice, of course, uh, but,

for whatever reason, me and my mom were just more drawn to T-Ferris. Like, he was just really nice, really supportive. Like,

he, like, anything I asked for, like, T-Ferris would just do it. Um, I can't, I record at the studio every day with them. I had shows. I was just coming up.

T. Ferris would be there. Carl would pop up from time to time. I'm pretty sure he helped a lot with some radio at the time. What do you mean? Like paying for radio? I don't know how that goes. What pays for radio? It happens, Megan.

It's illegal, Charlamagne. I'm having an honest conversation. I'm a radio personality. I can say that. Whatever. I mean, I don't really know how it goes, so I can't really speak on it. Good answer. You hired somebody to work right there.

Whatever it is, I know he had to do something. You know what I'm saying? Right. So I'm not taking that away from him. I'm not saying that he never gave me nothing. But then when things start really taking off, it would be me, my mom, and T. Ferris. So when we would be on the road, that's the team. When things start picking up even more, I got signed

with 300. So I really just didn't see nobody from 1501 that much. Do you think things shift when you went to Roc Nation, when Roc Nation started managing you and taking care of your contract? No. What people don't realize is I don't put everything

on social media. I don't put my problems on social media. I'm not a person that likes to vent online. Like, I just don't care about a lot of people outside of peeing. So, like, you would have never knew that we weren't talking even then. Like, it wasn't like when I see them, I speak, yeah, but it's not like we besties or nothing, you know? Like, me and T-Ferris have a really, really close relationship. So, when you got on Instagram, you had just got to the point

where you were really frustrated. Yeah, because I had already seen, like me and T-Ferris have a really, really close relationship. So when you got on Instagram, you had just got to the point where you were really frustrated. Yeah, because I had already seen like I just never made it a public thing. Like he had already been talking about me online, but I never like responded to it. So I don't think people realize that I was just at a point where I was already frustrated. And then when I found out I couldn't drop any music, I was like, well, I might as well say something. Now y'all ain't let me drop music, so I might as well tell people why I can't drop it. I didn't understand that either. Why would they not want you to drop music if they eat off it? I really don't know.

I could not tell you what's the thought process. Alright, now keep it locked. We got more with Meg Thee Stallion. When we come back, 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 Meg Thee Stallion. Charlamagne?

Do you think this is a situation where a major company is poaching off the work that a 1501 did to help you get to this point? No. Like, Roc Nation don't have nothing to do with the problems we was already going through. I don't like it. I don't like that, you know, people bring up Jay-Z, like, Jay-Z not worried about them. Like, you saying names that I feel like it's just, you're just trying to draw, like, attention to the situation. Like, facts are public.

I don't have to lie. Why would I lie? Like, I just, I feel like people want to bully me. Like, you don't have to gang up on me. Like, I didn't do nothing to y'all, so I really don't understand where it's coming from. I think a lot of that came from, I think you said that Rock Nation looked at the contract and told you something. So when I finally got real lawyers and people around me that knew what they were talking about, it was like some things in my contract are just unconscionable in the state of Texas.

So it's like, well, let's just fix the things that are wrong. So you don't want to be released? You just want to renegotiate? I just wanted to renegotiate my contract. Does it look like things are going to move toward that direction? Are you feeling like, do you feel like if you

had a conversation? I tried to have a conversation. Because he said he had, Carl said he hasn't heard from you since August. He's like, I haven't heard from you.

He ain't heard from me before that. Like, we just don't have a relationship. So it's not nothing that's brand new. It's not because of Roc Nation.

We just already didn't have a relationship Maybe Carl was the money guy But he wasn't the day-to-day guy That's what it seems like I mean, like I said I know what's being said is not true All that hundreds of thousands of dollars

People not even putting it out there We asked for the proof And you're not even giving us the proof of that I gotta go back and look at some of your old Instagram pictures Well, thank God we got an album out today Like we asked for the proof and you're not even giving us the proof of that Gotta go back and look at some of your old Instagram pictures. Well, thank God. We got out about today So who is sugar now so sugar is basically just like a girl who is going through it, but she getting through it It's like me basically letting people know that I'm not perfect. I'm a human. I know I'll be fucking up, but I'll be trying You know what I'm saying and I just I a human. I know I be f***ing up, but I be trying. I be getting through it, you know what I'm saying? And I just, I don't like the,

I don't like the fact that everybody be trying to seem so perfect. Why do you want to be perfect? But obviously people online, they just are all so amazing and nothing's wrong with them and they never been through s*** in their life. So, I mean, that's more so what I'm talking about.

Isn't it whack, though, that you gotta learn that in real time? Like, that has to play out in front of the world. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. How do you learn

those growing pains? I mean, it's just all a part of being in the light. So, I can't complain. I knew what I was getting into. So, it's not nothing

I'm upset about. It's just, I'm just learning as I go. So, when I bump my head, I just be like, okay. You and DaBaby make great records with each other. Oh, yeah. Are y'all doing an album together?

Is that a plan to do a full project? I don't know if we're going to do a full project, but I know we definitely got some music that's going to come up and some other things I don't want to say yet. Yeah, DaBaby always says if he could do a collab album with somebody, it would be you. I love him. Like, I really think that'll be fire if we actually did it. What type of deal is Megan Thee Stallion looking

for? Not necessarily in that situation, but just in general. At this point in your career, what would be fair to Megan Thee Stallion? I just want it to be fair and I want it to be good for everybody. Nothing is going to be perfect, but if we can both come to agreement, you got to give a

little to get a little. You know what I'm saying? And I understand that, so I just want everything to be fair. Do you have a relationship with J Prince at all? No. Have you ever met him? In person, no. Growing up, did you look up to rap a lot in J Prince? Had to, right? In youth? No. Really?

I was young, so I didn't really know anything about it. Oh, got you, got you. I mean, if you knew Pimp C and all of them, no. I only knew the music. I didn't know the backstory, I didn't really know anything about it. Oh, got you, got you. I mean, if you knew Pimp C and all of them, though. I only knew the music. Like, I didn't know the backstory. I didn't know the background. I mean, you know, I'm from Houston. You know, you hear things.

But I didn't think it was going to be anything that I would ever have to deal with. Right. Now, let's take a look. Oh, I wanted to talk about the song, Bitch. Hold on. Jay accused you of lying this morning on his Instagram. He said you're lying on him in court documents.

What is that about? Like, that's something that I definitely can't talk about. But I don't lie, though. Who helped you negotiate your original deal with 1501? I'm just saying. It's like an interrogation. Yeah, I mean, all of this, I really would like to answer it. Got you.

So hopefully, you know, next time I come come i will be able to talk about it but right now i you know it's just in court like so i can't say a lot of stuff is this stressful for you right now though well oh yeah definitely because all i want to do is just put out my music and that's all i care about well she got to go guys so let's play she just got here she's got to go i'm telling you what they're telling me but a 40 percent prophecy you think that's good for established artists for new established artists you want a little more? I mean, 40% seems pretty good. I mean, that's good.

Like, that's really not even the highlight of what my problem is. But you can't talk about what the problem is. I can't talk about exactly what it is right now. But sugar is out right now. One more question. I've seen you also being accused of going Hollywood too fast. By who? The people who are going against me right now?

No. No? I see Isaac Hayes say that a lot on Instagram. Isaac Hayes? Yeah. Not the same as his son. Oh, I was like, damn. I was like, damn.

What the hell is that? I was like, Isaac Hayes. No, his son says, he likes you, but he says he thinks you're going too Hollywood too fast. Well, I don't know him. He don't know me, so he can't say none of that. I mean, I guess you just go off what you hear from another guy, and you want to run with that. But I don't know that man. You think L.A. impacts your music at all?

No. I'll say every time I see Meg, she always been really nice to all her fans, her hotties. Anybody that really know me know how I really am. As a matter of fact, my goddaughter met you backstage at a show and was so excited. Y'all got cute pictures together and everything. She's 18 years old. You didn't even know who she was. And she came, took pictures.

Every time I see you, you always act the same. I know people who I met them early in their career, and they act funny later. No, she's always been humble, always been cool. I don't have no reason to act no different. It don't matter how much money I get. I share it with my whole team. I don't feel like being mean is, I don't feel like being a bitch is going to benefit me in any way. That's real.

My grandma always said, man, it'll take you where money won't. Yeah, my grandmother pretty much preached the same thing to me. My grandma always told me to just be positive, like always be kind to people. You never know what people are going through, so you just always should be nice. Let's play a joint off the EP. What you want to hear?

Let's play Captain Hook. Captain Hook? Hook, what's that about? It ain't about me. You like that curve, right, girl? That's what it's about? All right. I knew exactly what it was about as soon as I heard it, and I got mad.

You got mad? I did. All right. Nobody ever makes songs for the average-sized penis guy. I need a little candy man over there. All right. Thank you for joining us. Megan, don't be a stranger, goddammit.

to our Change for Change course. I'm sorry I missed that interview, man. Shout out to Micah Rubin. You should still wear some 76's. I wasn't part of this deal. Plus, I'm a Brooklyn Nets fan. And by the way, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, they actually put up the link. I think it was earlier this week, so you can actually go to the link. You can go to

Yeah, absolutely. So they're giving away $5,000 scholarships right now on the Thurgood Marshall College Fund website. What's the website? Because I know a lot of people are looking for scholarships. They need help, and this is the reason we did it. Do you have it? If you want to go to their Instagram page,

their Instagram page is TMCF. That's for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund underscore HBCU. And you can get all the information there, all the links and everything. But it's ThurgoodMarshallCollegeFund.com. All right, well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Love is Blind. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.

I know you guys haven't caught up on Love is Blind yet, but there's a lot of drama after the show. They just had the reunion the other day. Now, one thing that happened is Carlton, and since I know y'all don't watch it and hear, Carlton was a person on the show who actually ended up hooking up with Diamond. Jackie proposed to her. They were supposed to get married.

They got engaged, and then he revealed something to her that he should have told her way earlier. He mentioned this in the confessional, but he did not mention this to Diamond when they were talking through the pod wall. My biggest dream is that I finally find a wife who will love me unconditionally. But I have a big secret.

At one point in my young adult life, I found myself attracted to just hearts, period. Like, it didn't have a gender. It wasn't about sex for me. I dated guys and girls. But I want a wife now. My biggest worry is that I will find someone that I'm super in love with and want to marry.

And then at the last minute, she will not be able to walk down the aisle because she just can't be married to someone like me. You were attracted to hearts? Yeah, heights. It doesn't matter. Being attracted to hearts don't make you bisexual. Being attracted to penises does. Well, he said it doesn't matter if it was a man or a woman. He just was attracted to people.

So he's fluid is how he described people. So he's fluid, is how he described it. So he's been with men in the past. How would you react to that? If you found out your boyfriend you're about to marry was one time interested in men? Well, I feel like things like that should be discussed before you get engaged. That's my issue, right? Because on their pre-honeymoon

in Mexico, that's when he decided to let Diamond know about that. She was caught off guard, but she still didn't go off on him necessarily, and it ended up being a lot of drama after that. And then he posted on social media Did you just spin me? I just asked you a question. Did you just spin me?

Well, I'm trying to get to finish. Did you just spin me? I'm trying to get to finish telling the story. Alright. Because it's rumors. I want to get to why we told the story. Because he then posted, I'm really done. Thanks for the press request bookings. I'm not doing any press. As of today's radio interview, urban media has been the worst to me. Black lives matter until it's an LGBT

black life. Also, so-called celebrity friends on social media have every opportunity to defend my character, yet they don't. Thanks for the three of y'all who supported me in this. I feel alone and don't want any of this life anymore. I'm fighting alone, and it hurts. But this was a thing?

Yes, this is someone called 911 for a non-life-threatening injury hours after that media post. And TMZ did catch up with him and here's what he said. I want them to know that I'm dealing with this the best that I can. Obviously, every day is new. Waking up to death threats in my DMs. Are you okay? I'm okay. I had a very tough day, and some people apparently wanted to check on me,

and that's all I can really say about it right now. Okay. I just feel like the world hates me right now. Actually, I'm headed to a therapist right now. I'm glad he's headed to a therapist, but for the record, I wouldn't even have known about this story if Angela Lee didn't say it just now. Well, yeah, Love is Blind

is an extremely popular show on Netflix and everyone's been talking about this. It's been all over TMZ, in particular his character and Lauren and Cameron is a happily married couple.

They actually filmed everything. It all ended like a year and a half ago, so some of these people have been together since then. Some people have broken up since then,

but it's a pretty popular show. All right, in addition to that, he says he does regret not telling Diamond earlier before they got engaged that he was bisexual. Do you regret not telling Diamond beforehand about your sexuality? I do regret it now. I didn't think that it would be such an issue because I felt like it was a face-to-face conversation. But being how I see that it has affected our story, I'm beginning to regret even, maybe even being a part of it, just because it's just been too much. So hold on, he's still bisexual now?

Yeah. Oh, I thought you made it sound like he went through a phase when he was young. Well, he wants to settle down with a woman. So if he would have married her, you know, given if he didn't cheat, then that would have been it for him. But he said he's been attracted to both men and women in the past. He's attracted to hearts. He's attracted to penises and vaginas.

Go either way. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. So, Yee, what would you do? If my boyfriend told me that? I mean, I think I would feel deceived that he hadn't mentioned it previously. So that would be something that I would have to deal with. But I don't know that that would make me not want to be with you.

It just depends. That's a broader conversation of like, do you have to tell somebody your whole body count, right? Like, do you have to give the person the whole total car facts? Do they have to know every mile that's on this pedometer? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I think. Just because you used to drive stick a little bit. Well, it's also certain things you don't want to find out from someone else, too.

Who could tell? That you could potentially, the guy that he's been with. That's something I'd rather hear from my man than from someone else. So let's say your man was honest and told you. But was he honest and told me from the beginning? Yes. Or did he wait five years to tell me? From the beginning.

From the beginning, then, you know, I would appreciate his honesty, and if I really liked him, we'll see how it plays out. You don't tell the guy every person you slept with. Maybe she did. If I slept with women, I would tell him that. Really? Yeah.

That's right. I think that's something that's important to let somebody know. Okay. All right. Taylor just told her boyfriend. That what? Never mind.

What's wrong with you, man? She's going to come running. She's going to come running. She's looking right now. She probably can't see. Look at her. She don't know what's going on. See?

See? Oh, my goodness. Because look, guys, imagine this. Imagine, Charlamagne, you told your wife now that you've been with men in the past. Wouldn't she feel deceived that you didn't tell her? I can't tell her about something that never happened. No, but I'm saying if you told her now, you don't think she would feel deceived that you didn't tell her a long time ago? I'm sure she would.

Yeah, that's my point. It's not just the fact that you did that, but it's the fact that you never told me. Do you have a confession, Charlamagne? No. Because if you was with a guy in the past and you turned to women, clearly you don't like penis, okay? Anymore. Anymore.

All right. Taylor's looking confused. Taylor just walks in like, why is my name? I was just telling him your story about what you said this week about, you know, when you was in a room with, ah, what your boyfriend said. Ah. Your boyfriend had to hear it. Secondhand information. All right.

This is awkward. Thank you for that rumor report. Secondhand information. All right. This is awkward. Thank you, Heath, for that rumor report. Charlemagne. Yes. Who you giving your donkey to, man? Former President Bill Clinton. He needs to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him.

Okay. All right. We'll get to that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. This don't be a donkey. Because right now, you want some real donkey shit.

It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heel. Did she get donkey in the name, please, tell me. Absolutely. I have become donkey of the day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. You're a donkey.

Yes, donkey of the day for Friday, March 6th, goes to the former 42nd president of the United States of America, Bill Clinton. Now, a lot of you bootlicking liberals like to refer to Bill Clinton as the first black president, and yesterday he reminded us yet again that no matter how cool he is, he is not black. Okay, number one, he's not black because he's white. All right, let's just get that common sense out of the way.

Number two, black men don't cheat, but Bill Clinton has definitely cheated, okay? In fact, when you think about some of the most famous infidelities of all time, some of the most famous cheatingidelities of all time, some of the most famous cheating scandals of all time. I really can't think of one that ranks higher than Bill Clinton cheating on Hillary Clinton with Monica Lewinsky. Is there one? I can't think of one. Feel free to refresh my memory, okay? I may be being a prisoner at the moment because of the new...

JFK. JFK and Marilyn Monroe. Man, that's not our time. We wasn't around for that. Come on. Stop it. Well, he was. Yeah, Steve, he was?

Okay. Same age as you. Okay. It's an infamous story, though. Once again, the new Hillary documentary that premiered today on Hulu, the trailer came out yesterday, I believe. Now, for those of us in the male community who have made mistakes when it comes to our partners, by mistakes, I mean cheated.

When we were young boys, not men, boys, when we were young boys and we were insecure and driven by ego, we did things like attempt to sleep with as many women as possible because we were feeding our egos. And the thing about feeding your ego, your ego's stomach is a bottomless pit. Trying to fill your wounded ego

by sleeping with a bunch of women is like pouring water into a cup that has a hole in the bottom. It's just not going to happen. But one thing that men don't realize when you cheat on your significant other is you scar her for life. Okay, a lot of us don't take into consideration the anxiety the woman feels when you are away after you've cheated. You know, how her thinking about you being intimate with another woman traumatizes her emotionally. That is a wound that heals over time.

But, man, it's always tender. Oh, I mean, it's wounds that over time heals. But anything, and I mean anything, can trigger her and bring her right back to that bad place she was in when she first found out. Okay, that's why the best behavior when you have been a cheater is change behavior. The best apology is change behavior, okay, and taking full accountability. All right, it's nobody's fault but your own. All right, there's no excuse for you cheating on your woman. Cheating on your woman is a choice, a poor choice.

And when you do it, you have to deal with all the consequences of your actions. Nobody wants to hear any excuses from you because they all sound stupid. And President Bill Clinton proved that yet again on this Hillary documentary because he speaks on the affair he had with Monica Lewinsky in 1995, 25 years ago, 25 years ago. and Bill Clinton is still trying to explain embarrassing his wife. And when you do anything but simply say you made a poor choice and you were wrong, you end up embarrassing her more with your excuse. Would you like to hear what excuse Bill Clinton made in the new Hulu documentary, Hillary? Would you like to hear it?

Let's hear it. Why do you think you took that risk with your marriage and your child and your country? What do you, when you look back? Nobody thinks about that. Nobody thinks I'm taking a risk. That's not why people do stupid things. You feel like you're staggering around. You've been in a 15-round prize fight that was extended to 30 rounds. And here's something that will take your mind off it for a while.

That's what happens because their whatever life not just me yet everybody's life has pressures and disappointments and terrors fears of whatever things i did to manage my anxieties for years i'm a different totally different person than i was not a defense not a defense. It's an explanation. It was awful. This guy's crazy. Bill, stop. If you've been listening to The Breakfast Club, you know your Uncle Charlotte suffers from anxiety.

I wrote a book about it, and I'm always adding things to my toolbox to manage it. I do therapy on Fridays at 3.30. I do meditation. I don't do caffeine. I don't do sativa. I practice deep breathing. I do flow therapy. I get sleep. I do CBD. Look. I don't do sativa. I practice deep breathing. I do flow therapy. I get sleep. I do CBD. Look, I'm down to try anything to manage anxiety. With all that said, Bill Clinton is right. Oral sex absolutely relaxes you, okay? It's absolutely an anxiety reliever, but Bill,

you're missing one important, crucial detail in regards to that statement. The oral sex you should be receiving when you are a married man is from your wife, okay? Not the mouth of your mistress, the mouth of the woman that you made vows to, okay? See, I don't know about Bill Clinton, but I know me, Lenard, okay? Charlemagne, the God, Uncle Charla. All cheating did for me was give me anxiety, okay? I don't know what the hell Bill Clinton talking about. Every single time I laid down with another woman, I knew what the risk were. Okay, another baby, maybe an STD, my girl finding out and leaving my dumb ass. We all know the risk. It's just that cheating is a risk you're willing to take until you aren't willing to take it anymore.

Okay, if I feel like that and I'm just a radio guy from South Carolina, how in the hell can a 42nd president of the United States of America not feel like he was taking a risk? President Clinton, what type of sociopath are you that you weren't thinking about the risk of getting oral sex from an intern in the White House? This is really why you can't judge people on their past discretions because the 90s was a wild time. If the president of the United States of America was out of his damn mind, what type of time do you expect us young Negroes from the hood to be on? But back to Bill Clinton. Leave it alone, okay? Leave that young lady alone.

Have some respect for your marriage. Have some respect for Monica Lewinsky, who, as the Queen Demetria L. Lucas said last night on Instagram, Monica Lewinsky's name is synonymous with a sexual act that everyone does, but folks just started admitting to without incurring shame five years ago. That's your fault, Bill.

And you continue to cause that young lady trauma even 25 years later by telling the world that to you, her mouth was nothing but a Xanax bar. Please give the 42nd president of the United States of America, Bill Clinton, the biggest hee-haw. That's one I never thought of. I just did it to manage my anxiety First thing she's gonna say Well, what's wrong with my mouth? Now you just sitting there looking stupid Now you just sitting there looking stupid

When your wife says to you Well, what's wrong with my mouth? Why have this conversation? Like, why talk about it? 25 years later, why you Because people are fascinated by it He's 80, I can't remember This is why you don't reheat cold french fries

I'm with you. Leave them. Throw them away. And let's be clear, okay? Even to this day, Monica Lewinsky can't really move around and function without people thinking about that. That is true. It affected her life more than anyone. I mean, her name is synonymous with oral sex.

Her last name has become a slang term for oral sex. I get it. I totally understand. All right. Damn, Bill. I totally understand. All right. Damn, Bill. Thank you for that donkey today. When we come back, Jadakiss will be joining us. Jadakiss has a new project out right now,

and we'll talk to him when we come back. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

We got a special guest in the building, Jadakiss. What's up, y'all? What's up, Kiss? Space King. How y'all doing, man? You put out another stellar body of work. I can't even pronounce the title, and I don't even want to disrespect it because I know it has a lot of significance to you.

Ignatius. Okay, and what is the meaning behind that? It's actually my man Ice Pick Jay's first name. I always used to tease him about it. And what is the meaning behind that? It's actually my man Ice Pick Jay's first name. I always used to tease him about it. Told him his pops must have wanted him to be a pimp. Or something with the name Ignatius. He's always a hill to me.

But yeah, we lost him from colon cancer. If everybody know him, he was the Rough Rider A&R. He worked on on all the rough rider compilations, all my albums, all the X albums, Eve, Drag On, the whole camp. Um, then after D had the accident, I kind of hired him to work with me. We started the So Raspy label on the website and, you know, he was just still A&R on my projects. Uh, he was, made me lose weight, made me start working out, got me into art. He just was a rare individual that's hard to find, you know what I mean,

on your entourage or on your staff that was very sincere and genuine and really cared about the brand. It didn't matter. He just wanted to get it done, whether it was for me to lock Styles, Looch, whatever was the cause. He was the guy to go get the verse or go get the production or whatever we needed done.

And, you know, losing him was a big hit to my everyday activities, my career, everything, you know. The reason I did this project is because I was like the last person to actually found out. He didn't want me to know. He made everybody that was with him,

Steve-O and Royce, and the people that was, you know, taking him to the doctors and trying to help him out, he made them curve me totally, and he spun me when I speak to him. He would just tell me something, just threw me off. And I didn't really realize it until after he was gone. So he was hiding from you and everything?

Yeah, yeah, they totally had me out of the, you know what I mean? I went from speaking to him every morning to, you know what I mean? They didn't want me to know. So when I found out, then he passed away. Even the next day or the day after, 24, 48 hours after them let me go to the hospital and see him, he passed away. Did you get to talk at all in the hospital at that time? No.

He was, by the time I seen him, he was down. He was sedated and he was, you know what I seen him, he was down. He was sedated and he was, you know what I mean? He couldn't talk or none of that. And he was a super healthy brother.

He was one of the strongest dudes I ever encountered. He would ride his mountain bike to Brooklyn. He'd play ball every weekend.

He'd drink nasty. He would juice watercress in his crib, drink it, and go running and all that. But I think it was inherited. You know what I mean? It was an inheritance thing.

But I felt to have some sense of closure or get over it was to do this body of work, a project for him and his name. I tried to do a lot of the features that he would always be in my ear. When you're going to work with this person, I need you to do a song with this person. That was the Pusha joint? He wanted you to work with Pusha? Yeah, Push, John Legend, 2 Chainz. He was a big fan of 2 Chainz.

He loved his voice, and he loved how he put his bars together. Dej Loaf, he loved Dej. Something about her, Sonic Lee, that he used to listen to. You got her sounding right on Government Cheese. Good looking. After this, it's like my urn or my laminated eulogy that they give you when you go, you know, like I put it on this wall, the mantel, and get back in the regular. It's like he basically A&R'd this project.

Yeah, he A&R'd it from heaven, exactly. Did you hear him? Like when you was in the studio recording? This was the scariest thing with making this project. This is the first album that I actually did a lot of post-production

like had live instruments come in and played and all of that type of stuff. The samples all of them replayed over live and just real musical. And that's something that he always wanted. He would always try to get me to do it. I would be like,

nah, come on, man, just keep it like this. He'd be like, nah, you gotta do this. So I kinda did all the stuff he ever asked me to do. What's one thing that you hear him say over and over again that's something that you'd be like, that's Pip? For me to sing he wanted me to use my voice more. You gotta use your voice B

You do the hook, don't call nobody, just sing it. They wanna hear that. Come on B That's you on the intro right? That's me singing on the 2 Chainz joint and on Keep It 100 How'd it feel for you? It felt good I wish he could have been here To go through the process But I feel like I made him proud Now you pushed the album back

A week What was the reason for that? I pushed it back a week Just due to the whole Pop Smoke thing and also the Kobe Memorial. Actually, at the time in that all of that happened, we was about to let out

hunting season in the video and the video is very gory and bloody and it's arts. It's like Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Art Basel. It's like Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Art Basel. It's like, you know what I mean? The blood is pain.

Yeah, because actually with the whole thing, I had two. I narrowed it down to two treatments. And I sent it to Push thinking he was going to like the other treatment. He like, nah, I like this one. I'm like, Push, you want blood and all? He's like, yeah, let's do this one. So we shot that one. Which I shoot it.

Shot in New Jersey. One of them nice mansions or somewhere. Probably not too far from your big old mansion. Stop it. But anyway, when we scheduled to release the video and the song, it's the same time. We got the news that the thing, Pop Smoke, got killed. And then it was the Kobe

Memorial, so it just wasn't, I didn't feel it was appropriate or tasteful and I just thought it was an honorable thing to do, you know what I mean? Life is way bigger than music, even though you need music for life to sometime help you with life but I just thought it wasn't

appropriate and pushed it back a week. Alright, we got more with Jadakiss. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. E.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Jadakiss.

Now, we had Meg Thee Stallion here earlier, and I know your contract was a little messed up. What would you advise some of the younger artists now? I tell young artists and new artists, learn, learn, learn the game as much as you in the studio getting your pen sharp and sharpening your steel. You should try to learn the game

as much as you want to be the best producer, the best rapper, so you don't run into things like that. Because at the end of the day, it's our fault, the artists,

when we sign it. Or whoever was your manager or whoever your supporting cast. You know what I mean? Somebody, your lawyer, your mother, somebody should, you should have somebody there to help you. Or you got to just take the fault. Right. Because you signed it. Unless they put a gun to your head and made you sign it.

You know what I mean? You got to try to work it out but on the journey of working it out you gotta know that that was your fault and correct it from there. I'm glad she's getting it early. You know what I mean? That's what we was able to do.

Jump on things early and start learning it. Unfortunately after we signed but it was still early. But he didn't have to release you guys. He just. No, he didn't. That's what I'm saying. Even with the whole thing, everybody keep asking me about the May situation.

We handled it different because we was younger. We was kids. Y'all threatened him with violence a million times. We was throwing chairs. But it worked. We were throwing refrigerators. We couldn't do no litigation. We didn't have money to go to court with,

and we would have been broke after one visit. You know what I mean? We would have been to the bone. That's how that usually goes. And that was a risky move for Diddy, because imagine everybody would have came and threatened him after that to get out of their contract. But in Macy's defense, I'm always for the artist,

because I'm an artist. And if you see that's a common thing that's happening with Meg, you know, it seems to be something that somebody started whenever this game started and put the artist at the bottom of the totem pole. But where we all at in our careers and lives now, I think he could talk to Diddy. But we don't know if he tried that and his only way to get... I think he said he did.

His only way to get across was to hit Sin. You know what I mean? So I would just wish they could work it out and not be a public... a public... Right.

But they say Mase owes him a lot of money too, though. You see? It's always... It's always three sides. I'm just saying, just all the advances. The advances he got when they renegotiated for the second time and then when he came back, like... You see? It's always three sides. I understand. Just all the advances. The advances he got when they renegotiated for the second time,

then when he came back. You see, there's always. There's always. That's the bad thing about when you hit sin, because the people only get to hear your side. You know what I mean? There's always going to be two other sides. Kids got to go too, guys.

Do you think Mase was ever as nice as you, man? That's been a debate going on for a few years between me and B-Dot. That what? You was in here. We had these conversations in here. I did not say that. Because we was ranking the top five bad boy artists of all time lyrically. Right?

And let's see where this goes. I had Biggie number one. I had Biggie number one. Kiss number two. I had Kiss two. I had Styles three. I had Black Rob four. And I had G-Depth 5.

And you didn't have Macy's in the top five? He didn't make the list. He got to be on the list. I'm talking about this lyric. Top five, Macy's in the list. I'm not talking about artists. Macy's definitely top five bad boy artists in lyrics. Absolutely.

Who is he better? You think he better than Rob? Macy gets busy. Macy always said when I get in, I'm going for the bread. I'm doing all of that shiny shooting. I'm going for the lay. I'm making big records. But he can rhyme his ass off.

Know what I mean? So where you rank him? Because I got you. I got big kid style. I got him on there somewhere. It's only five. He's like, I got to think about it. I got them on there somewhere. It's only five. He's like, I got to think about it. You're on there, Ian.

I got them in the five. I ain't no particular place. He's definitely on there. Who is the top five then? Not in order, but just who is the bad boy. In bad boy? Just in bad boy. Bad boy at his peak.

The Lox Mace And Big So that's five That's my five Okay Okay Now is The Lox doing another You gotta go Is The Lox doing another album

What's next after this When you said you had to Get this one off your chest Yeah after this We get back into Regular schedule Program New Lox album

New Lox documentary And we actually Shooting the first single On the 8th I I think. Y'all just celebrated 20 years. We are the Screech, right? Yeah.

Man. We ain't playing. We got the doc coming, and we got the album coming. You ain't answering the question, though. Was Mase ever as nice as you? You better not say, yeah. You better think you're nicer than everybody. No, he said, was he ever?

He didn't say, you know. You got to listen to the DA for district attorney. You got to listen to him. We started out, Mason, they used to think he was part of us. We was together for years getting nice. So, you know what I mean? He's my brother. I will always, you know what I mean?

But as far as he put me in there with anybody I feel like I'm the only one that's gonna come out with somebody's head in my hand. Even Big? I mean to answer that

Big our first song you'll see Big is talking about us and I'm talking about Big you know what I mean? Oh you'll see? Yeah.

Wow, wow, wow. Big's came cause Puff geested up saying I got these new young cats from Yonkers. I'm telling you, they're going to kill you. They're going to die in late June. You know what I mean?

But just making everybody go hard. And then that's when Biggs came talking it, but ain't living it. That was for us. That was for y'all. Yeah. What was your line back for him? Screw y'all. I never knew y'all.

You clicked me like yellow lights. We running Screw y'all. I never knew y'all. You click me like yellow lights. We running through y'all. Custom van. Up north in the custom van. And what's your man? Interrupt your plan. Now it's back to grand. Man, ain't that something?

All left in front. And what you gonna do? Nothing. So let's keep things rationalized. Everything I write, brother, nationalized. I'm into getting money, twisting honeys. This is buying coops. Why you in the stoop looking funny?

I'm a school. Damn. A ditty ball. Yeah. That's the first. That's one of the first rhymes that we, that's our first. We actually had a song with Big before we ever met him.

So, you know what I mean? That's an accomplishment. I'm glad you said that because I was going to ask you, have you ever thrown any subs? Because I saw you on For The Record talking about how Styles was dissing Jay on Reservoir Dogs and Biggie was dissing Craig back on Play Me The Air. We were just light shots. That's how the game was back then.

And it made it, that's what was so golden about the golden era. You know what I mean? It was still love, but it was a competitive blood sport to a certain sense. But when a dude called you for a feature, he actually wanted that. You know what I mean? Social media would have hyped that up so much back then. It would have probably got ugly.

One of my favorite freestyles is over the cream beat with the locks and big on the Funk Flex 60 Minutes of Funk Volume 2. back then, it would have probably got ugly. One of my favorite freestyles is Over the Cream Beat with Delox and Big on the Funk Flex 60 Minutes of Funk Volume 2. I listen to that s*** now. We was all there. We did that in Daddy's house. I remember that day to the day like it was yesterday. I was

dope there. I remember that. Was that your second time recording? Yeah, we did that actually before last day. So yeah, that was the second one that we did with Big. Big wasn't playing with y'all on it. When I die, is you going to hear a version of me on more money, more problems? I heard about that. He said when I die.

A couple of hours. Why you say when you die? Because you know how this game is crazy. All types of stuff comes out. When I die, they're going to pull out the money, more problems. We need to hear that now. Why they took you off that? That would have been a good setup for you.

I don't think the verse was. Yeah, I didn't write it with all of the charisma that I wanted to write. You was killing people in the song? Yeah, it didn't match. It was water and oil. Alright, well, they saying you gotta go. Alright, Ignatius.

Ignatius out right now. Make sure y'all check it out. Beautiful project. Make sure y'all get ready for this Lox album coming after that. Lox documentary, definitely a tearjerker.

And I appreciate all the love for D-Block, L-O-X, So Raspy. Alright. It's The Breakfast Club. It's Jadakiss.

The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. With Angela Yee.

It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Yes, apparently Pleasure P had some issues. He got arrested for battery after getting into it into an altercation at a Checkers drive-thru. It was in Miami Gardens. They said he allegedly shoved a female fast food employee

in the chest with his bag of food through the drive-thru pickup window. The Checkers worker told cops the incident started because he yelled at her through the intercom system because it was a mix-up over $60 worth of food that he ordered. He did post bond. That bond was $1,500.

A few hours later, he was released from jail. Now here's what he had to say on social media. Whatever they're saying is not true. I'm not going to really explain myself because I don't feel like I have to, but I'm definitely going to look into what really happened, and y'all will be hearing the real story of what actually did take place. But come on, man. Y'all know I ain't going out like that.

I ain't put my hands on no female or nothing crazy like that. Well, I'll tell you one thing. We don't know if he did it or not. But I will tell you this. I'm at a point where you have to really, really push me to the limit to even get into any type of altercation with anybody. I mean, there's no way I'm going to do it. And especially not a woman.

No way. Well, what he says is that's not what happened. As you heard, he said that checkers need to have better customer service and they did not correct his food order. He said food was thrown at him and the staff was disrespectful. He asked for a refund and they refused. All right, Gabrielle Union is doing her first children's book. Welcome to the party. She said this is a very special moment for me Union is doing her first children's book. Welcome to the party.

She said, this is a very special moment for me to write my very first children's book. Since the birth of Kavya James, I've been even more inspired to create stories that are not only representative of the cultural melting pot we live in, but also celebrate life and the fun, teachable lessons that come at every age. So that book will be out on May 5th of this year. Sounds dope. All right. Now, Wendy Williams is going in on Ashley Graham. at every age. So that book will be out on May 5th of this year. Sounds dope. Mm-hmm. All right. Now, Wendy Williams is going in on Ashley Graham.

She said that's a friend of hers, but she said she had an issue with her changing her baby boy's diaper on the floor at a Staples store when she couldn't find a restroom.

Here's what Wendy Williams had to say. As a mother, you hate it when you go places and there are no changing tables. So they're at the Staples and he does an explosive. So she changed him in the aisle. Now, personally speaking, I don't want to see this.

Because when your baby is seven weeks old and you're Ashley Graham, you know, there's certain places where people don't have cars to go to the store, mostly New York City and the five boroughs. But here's my thought. This is what people revere. Now, mothers are looking at Ashley and saying, well, if she can do it, I can do it too. No, the hell you can't.

Yeah, she thinks she could have took the baby to the car, changed the baby somewhere else. I don't even think it's the problem of her changing the baby on the floor. It's the problem of her videotaping and putting it on social media. Like, nobody had to know that. You understand what I'm saying? Like, I think we're so used to you know, seeing everything broadcast

via IG Live that we're looking at the wrong thing. There's nothing wrong with changing the baby on the floor if there's no place else to change the baby, but videotaping it and putting it online. Maybe she did that because she was trying to say that, you know, these stores should have places where mothers can change the diaper, and that's what she was trying to put awareness to. I don't know where you got that from.

I don't know where you got that from. Well, no, because she said there was no way to change the baby. She said she tried to go to the store bathroom. There was no way to change the bathroom. I'm saying she made that stand. I'm saying, I said maybe that's what she was trying to do by taping it. You TMZ-ing the situation. No, I'm not.

I'm just saying. You just put a whole new headline on it. You're saying why she taping it. I'm saying, well, maybe that's the reason why she's taping it. She went to the, there was no way to tape the baby. There was no way to change the baby in the bathroom. Yeah, to me, that's just the biggest thing. Why put that on social media? So you can't be mad when people criticize you for it because you put it out there.

Yeah, I guess. But I guess for her, being a mom, she's just trying to document certain things that are issues. I don't know. I mean, I would have went to the car. I wouldn't have did it on the floor. You're five kids in. Yeah, I'm five kids in. I mean, I would have went to the car. I wouldn't have did it on the floor, but I mean. You're five kids in. Yeah, I'm five kids in.

I mean, I would do it on my lap. There's so many different ways that me five kids in would change, but I wouldn't do it on the floor. But, hey, she's entitled to do what she wants to do. And who videotaped it? Who took the picture? She posted about it, about the emergency. I know, but who took the picture? Oh, I don't know.

Yeah. All right, now let's talk about our girl, Judge Faith Jenkins. She is going to be replacing Judge Lynn Toler on divorce court. Now, Lynn Toler was on there after 13 great years, and she is praising Faith Jenkins for replacing her. Listen to this. I've left divorce court. We've parted ways. I had 13 great years.

It was time to move on. They found a replacement, Judge Faith. She's good looking, and she's smart, and she's capable, and I think she'll take divorce court to another level. Yes. So, look, it's nice, right? Another black woman coming and taking that spot.

Judge Maybelline. Remember Judge Maybelline? On divorce court before Judge Lynn Toler. Judge Faith getting all the money. Yes. I saw her post about it, so I said, oh, let me go look up the whole story. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, Revolt, we'll see you tomorrow.

Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next. You know, we throw it back on a Friday, and today is Shaquille O'Neal's birthday. So we're going to start it off with Shaquille O'Neal with Shaq and Big. All right? Get your request in. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. D.J. Envy, Get your request in. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now it's Women's History Month. Who are we repping today, Yee? Well, today we are talking about Misty Copeland. She made history as the first African female principal dancer with the American Ballet Theater, the most prestigious American Ballet Theater. She was discovered living in a shabby motel room, struggling with her five siblings for a place to sleep on the floor. And then she became one of the most heard of classical dancers ever.

It's Women's History Month, and we're celebrating the most influential women in history. Check out this phenomenal woman. I understand that you were late to the game in terms of ballet. I was surprised to hear this. You didn't start dancing until you were 13 years old, which is shocking. Yeah, it is. It's ancient. Yeah, that's my first moment on point, and my teacher captured that, which is pretty crazy.

Yeah, I was, you know know I grew up in Los Angeles California and you know I was one of six children I grew up in like underprivileged communities most of my life and at the time that I started taking ballet my family was living in a motel like all of us in one room and I was a member of the Boys and Girls Club because it was a safe place for me to go after school while my mother was working. And there happened to be a teacher from the local ballet school that was teaching a free class at the Boys and Girls Club trying to find more diverse students who wouldn't have

the access or exposure to ballet. So I took my first ballet class on a basketball court in my like PE gym clothes like in socks and shorts and a t-shirt and She said that she knew immediately from like the moment She touched me and putting me into positions like she's like you're a prodigy and I want you to come train at my school on full scholarship I can't say I'm not good about that. Yeah. Right. Wow. Life-changing. Yeah. A life-changing moment. I know.

It's really crazy to think, like, where would I be had I not been pushed into taking that class? I didn't want to do it. I was forced to do it. I'm glad somebody did. And that was another phenomenal woman in history. All right, we salute you, Misty Copeland. Yes, and like we always say, if you can see it, you can be it. So imagine all the young black and brown women she's inspired

who never thought they could be in that space before. All right, well, when we come back, positive note, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
