Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

The world's most dangerous morning show,
The Breakfast Club.
Man, what the hell is this, man?
Breakfast Club, bitches.
I'm glad they put y'all together.
Y'all are like a mega force.
Y'all just took over everything.
Wake your punk ass up.
This is Chris Brown.
I've officially joined the Breakfast Club.
Say something, mother f***er.
I'm with it.
The world's most dangerous morning show.
Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, DJ Andy. Charlamagne Tha Guy. Peace to the planet. It is Tuesday.
Yes, it's Tuesday.
And the countdown to the NFL season begins now.
That's right.
Congratulations to all the Warrior fans.
Congratulations to you guys out there.
Drop on the clues, Bonds, for the Golden State Warriors.
We could have binge-watched that NBA Finals.
They could have just let us watch all five of those games in one day.
Okay, and just get it out the way, damn it.
Well, congratulations to the Warriors fans. My son,
I bet him last
year and I won. So this year, he
won the bet. So I had to wear
Warriors gear. So that's why I have on
Warriors shorts today. My prediction
last year was perfect for this year. I picked
Warriors in five last year. Yeah, but you were just a year
late. And you said
Cavs in seven. I said Cavs in seven last year. I said but you were just a year. I was a year late. And you said Cavs in seven.
I said Cavs in seven last year. I said Cavs in seven this year.
Everybody was gassed up because of what happened last year.
But, you know, I don't know why people tend to forget that the Golden State Warriors had
a weapon of mass destruction named Kevin Durant.
They added that to a 73-9 team.
So, you know, it's very, very predictable.
What does this mean for my Under Armour stock?
It's really, OK, it went up a little.
Yeah, Under Armour stock will go up a little bit.
But what does this mean for the NBA?
Like, who can win in the next four years?
I don't like it. I mean, I said that last night on social
media, I don't like these super team things
because I don't like predictable endings.
And then people started tweeting me stupid stuff like
you like the Avengers. I bet you're
going to go see Tupac movie. Like, man,
I hate y'all overthinking
fake woke Negroes on social
media, man. I mean, like, it really, I hate to say it, but it ruins the NBA.
Like, you know who's going to win the next four years.
If that team stays together, who's beating that team?
Well, you don't know who's going to win, but you know that.
Who's going to beat that team in the next four?
I mean, listen, you know a team like the Cavs has to load up on other players,
and that makes the power in the NBA unequal.
Like, you know what I mean?
You'll have, like, two super teams and then a bunch of subpar trash teams.
I mean, that's not fun.
You almost got to hope for somebody to get injured to win.
Like, there's no way you're going to beat the Warriors.
You're not going to beat the Warriors.
Well, congratulations to the Golden State Warriors.
They're good for the next three to four.
I'd say about four or five.
As long as nobody gets injured.
And we got to see what LeBron James does.
You already know Carmelo's probably going to Cleveland
for the veterans minimum.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
But you still need a big man that's going to go out there
and dive for rebounds and be a Rodman.
You need somebody that's going to do the dirty work.
They got him.
Who?
Tristan Thompson.
He just got to get up from under Khalid Kardashian's titty
and get out that sunken place and play some freaking basketball.
That's all.
All right.
Maybe.
That's all.
He balled out last night.
Tristan showed up a little bit.
He did a little bit.
Yeah.
Tristan can bang out.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, Michael Bennett will be joining us this morning.
Oh, drop one of the clues bombs from Michael Bennett.
If you don't know who Michael Bennett is, he is a defensive end for the Seattle Seahawks.
Very outspoken individual.
Him and his brother Martellus love getting his take on a few things.
Yeah.
So we'll kick it with him a little bit later, all right?
Now, front page news, what are we talking about today, Ye?
Well, we'll talk about Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Today he's going to be testifying in front of the Senate.
We'll tell you what you can expect from that.
Also, imagine you went to jail for 17 years because there was another man who looked just like you.
Are the Warriors going to go to the White House?
You mentioned Jeff Sessions.
That's what I want to know.
I doubt it.
That'll be one of their real first major losses all year if they go to the White House.
No, I don't think they'll go to the White House.
Steve Carell will go.
No, he won't.
No, he won't.
Steve Carell ain't going.
He ain't not going.
Who would go from the Warriors?
Look at you.
You're thinking of a white player on the Warriors.
Look at you.
That's what you're doing.
I'm being prejudiced this morning.
I was.
Oh, my goodness.
All right.
Front page news is next. That's. I was. Oh, my goodness. All right, front page news is next.
That's what I like.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, last night, if you don't know, the NBA Finals, the Warriors beat the Cavs 129-120.
Kevin Durant, Durant, I mean, scored 39 points.
He was named the Finals MVP.
So, congratulations to the Golden State Warriors.
The NBA Finals was absolute trash, okay?
Like I said, we could have just binge-watched that in one day.
We knew what the outcome was going to be.
We was hoping for it.
I wouldn't say it was trash.
It was trash, bro.
The third game was good.
The fourth game was good.
Nah, man, nah, man.
The fifth game started off pretty good.
I wouldn't say trash.
It's never good when the NBA Finals is a 4-1.
Like, no. It wasn't good. It wasn't say trash. It's never good when the NBA Finals is a 4-1. Like, no.
It just wasn't good.
It wasn't really
that entertaining
other than sitting there
watching, you know,
five of the ten best players
in the world
out on the court
at one time.
And four of them
happened to be on one team.
You know, the Cleveland Cavaliers
just need more firepower
and they need more shooters.
They should just sign
Sebastian Telfair
in the offseason.
Okay, he got all the firepower.
Absolutely.
He got everything you need.
He got an arsenal.
That's right.
And he got backup too.
There you go.
Let's talk real news.
What's going on in the White House now?
What's happening over there?
Well, Jeff Sessions will be testifying publicly about Russia,
and that will happen today.
And he has requested that that hearing be public
because he wants the American public to hear the truth directly from him. And he looks forward to answering the questions today. So we'll see what happens
with this. Some of the things they'll be discussing is Comey's revelations. When Comey
spoke out, he talked about his claims that Jeff Sessions recognized the inappropriateness of
Donald Trump's request to meet with him alone. And Comey testified that the president asked him
to let the investigation into former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn drop.
He said he felt like Jeff Sessions knew that he shouldn't be leaving, which is why he lingered.
That's according to Comey.
And Comey said he was so uncomfortable that he actually went to Jeff Sessions to ask him to prevent any future direct communication between him and the president.
And also it's going to be about him meeting with the Russian ambassador.
So we'll see what happens today.
So basically Jeff Sessions didn't stay up late to watch the finals last night like the rest of us.
I'm sure he did.
Maybe he did.
He's an older man, an older gentleman.
I'm sure he had to get some sleep.
Yeah.
Now let's talk about this guy that got locked up.
Mistaken identity, I'm guessing.
Yes, he spent 17 years in jail for a robbery that he did not commit.
Richard Anthony Jones from Kansas.
He was released from jail.
Witnesses said they could not tell the two men apart.
Apparently, there was another guy who had the same first name as him who looked just like him.
Now, he said this was like a needle in a haystack moment.
What can you do with that?
There's nothing you can do.
I got blood.
I got blood.
I got DNA.
I got cornrows.
I got hand samples.
You're going to figure out this ain't me, damn it. I got the same facial hair. I got spit. I got blood. I got DNA. I got cornrows. I got hand samples. You're going to figure out this ain't me, damn it.
I got the same facial hair.
I got spit.
Damn it, man.
You give me cavity searches.
Well, listen, Richard Anthony Jones, there was no physical DNA or fingerprint evidence
that linked him to the crime.
So, you know, that was for people who were robbed in a park.
So that's why he was finally released.
What kind of sucks is that he spent 17 years in jail.
He was only sentenced to 19.
So basically, he spent almost the whole entire time.
So what's different now than it was 17 years ago?
Did they figure out that that wasn't him?
Well, they saw the picture of the guy that looked just like him,
and that's when he called the Midwest Innocence Project.
That group helps aid wrongly convicted prisoners,
and he told them about the man that looked just like him.
His name is Richard. The man's name was Ricky.
And he explained
that fellow inmates said they lived in the same
area. Oh, man.
Damn it, man.
That's some bad luck.
That's some awful luck.
That's scary. It's scary because if Morris
Chestnut ever commits a crime, then they come in to get me.
And I don't... It's probably more likely
they'll go get Morris Chestnut once you commit a crime. No, probably coming to get me. And I don't, you know, I don't. It's probably more likely they'll go get Morris Chesnut once you commit a crime.
No, probably not.
The other way around.
Either way, but still.
They are not coming to get you.
You do not look nothing like Morris Chesnut.
Morris is my doppelganger.
Definitely not.
It's not, right?
Stop it.
He's my doppelganger.
More like R&B singer Joe.
He's my doppelganger, okay?
Are you dumb?
He's just not a New York Times bestselling author.
Yo, shut up, man.
I hate you.
If Lafayette from True Blood commits a crime.
He's not a New York Times bestselling author either. Just shut up, man. If Lafayette from True Blood commits a crime. He's not a New York Times bestselling author either.
Just want to throw that out there.
My goodness.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now.
Or if you feel blessed, 800-585-1051.

I don't know.
I'm not having the money that I should have.
These credit card scammers is out here.
They're getting all this bread.
These credit card scammers.
Let me tell you something, my brother.
Always remember that success is subjective.
You know what I'm saying?
You can't compare what you're doing to somebody else because you'll never be happy.
At least you're not doing anything illegal that you could go to jail for.
That is true.
Fact.
My pops are from Monk Corner.

I was all up on the internet, and I was on SoundCloud, and I heard these little white

And I'm like, where hip-hop go, dog?
Where is it?

I looked in my shoes, my closet, my wallet, my dog's football.

He's 22.
You ain't no 22.
You lost your mind when Mobb Deep came out this weekend.
I was watching my door, I'll tell you that.
But first off, y'all need to check out some of these SoundCloud rappers.
I'm telling you they are.
Man, it's a lot of dope rappers out here, man.
I hate when people call up complaining about hip-hop.
You're not listening hard enough, man.
There's so much dope rap out here.
Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to
vent, or maybe you feel blessed, call us

For whatever reason, I always got that key on me.
I got it on me right now.
The key to Columbia, South Carolina.
I do not know why.
I always.
I haven't taken it out of my bag since I got it.
You know it doesn't open up a Chick-fil-A.
I don't know.
I haven't tried it.
I have not taken it out of my bag since I got it. I saw they just gave open up a Chick-fil-A. I don't know. I haven't tried it. I've not taken it out of my bag since I got it.
I thought they just gave Fab the key to Brooklyn, too.
Yeah, Fab got the key to Brooklyn the other day.
Salute to Fab.
He deserve it.
Get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Now, yeah, we got rooms on the way.
Yes, this is a messy situation.
Bachelor in Paradise filming was shut down.
We'll tell you what's been happening behind the scenes.
I definitely want to get your opinion
on who's right and who's wrong here.
It's messy.
Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The rumor report.
Gossip.
Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report.
The Breakfast Club. Well, got. With Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club.
Well, congratulations to Ice Cube.
He got his start on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Congrats to Cube.
Dropping a clues bomb for Ice Cube, damn it.
That seems so long overdue.
It really does.
I'm surprised that he hasn't gotten this before.
Russell Simmons was there to celebrate with him.
Exhibit, Big Boy, Sir Jinx, Yo-Yo, all of them were there.
John Singleton spoke at the ceremony as well.
That Sasquatch named Dr. Dre showed up.
Before Ice Cube took the stage for his own speech.
So congratulations to Ice Cube.
We're actually going to have him on soon
because he's got that big three basketball tournament
that he's doing and it's kicking off
in Brooklyn at the Barclays.
You're talking about with Deron Williams
we're going to play next year?
You know what, Deron Williams, whatever his name is, Derron Williams might not be good enough to even play in that league.
Why is that?
Derron Williams?
Why?
He sucks.
He's terrible.
I can beat Derron Williams one-on-one.
I don't think you can beat him.
I don't know about that.
Slow down.
Slow it down.
What Derron Williams you talking about?
There must be another Derron Williams.
The one that played for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
He don't suck.
What?
I don't know what you watched.
He's a little slower.
His passes are not as fast as they were before.
His crossover is not as fast as it was before.
I've been listening to you talking about basketball.
Trash.
But he ain't.
Dennis Rodman arrived in North Korea today for the first time since Donald Trump's presidency.
He said he's trying to open a door on a mission that he thinks should get support.
Now, he has not spoken to Trump about the trip,
but he said, I'm pretty sure he's happy with the fact
that I'm over here trying to accomplish something
that we both need.
And in the past, President Trump has praised
Dennis Rodman's previous visits to North Korea.
So he's out there.
I don't know what's going to happen.
I don't think Dennis Rodman has ever been
an accurate reflection of America,
even when he's in America.
He don't act like the average American.
Like, how can he go over there and represent for a whole country?
Right.
I don't know what he's going to accomplish, but I guess good luck to you, Dennis Rodman.
I think they love us, to be honest with you.
Dennis Rodman and the guy that runs North Korea.
No, you don't. I do. I really do. I think they love us. I'm going to be honest with you. Dennis Rodman and the guy that runs North Korea. No, you don't.
I do.
I really do.
I think they love us.
I'm going to be honest with you.
Kim Jong-un.
Yes, I think Rodman giving them that fire head.
All right.
Tiny has reunited with Escape.
As you all know, Escape is going to have a reality show,
and that show has been scheduled to air on Bravo.
Now, supposedly that show's start date is going to be in November.
That's the tentative date that they have right now with Mona Scott Young,
the person who has signed on as executive producer.
Oh, Mona Scott's the EP of The Escape Show?
Yes.
I'll watch that.
Yes.
That'll get a view or two from me.
The show is going to follow them as they prepare for the Essence Festival.
That's their first performance together in over 20 years.
So congratulations to them.
Ain't she related to one of them?
No.
What?
Her and one of them look alike.
It's not tiny, not candy.
Y'all know the one I'm talking about that look like Mona's got.
They're not related.
All right, now let's discuss this Bachelor in Paradise drama.
I don't know if you guys have been paying attention to this,
but there was a scene in Bachelor in Paradise
where, according to witnesses,
Corinne Olympias was so drunk
several hours after she and Demario Jackson hooked up
that she could barely stand up.
Now, they said that she was incapable of giving consent,
and she's blaming producers now
for not having them just stop the whole entire escapade.
She said she has no recollection of what happened in the pool,
and according to sources, they were rubbing, touching, and engaging in oral sex.
So they filmed a rape, basically?
Well, according to, because she hasn't seen the footage yet,
and she's saying that she possibly may have blacked out
and forgot most of what happened from the time that she started drinking.
But according right now, they're investigating.
We don't know what happened.
How does that work?
Some people that are familiar with the footage are saying that she appeared to be fully engaged and she doesn't completely blame him because he was drunk as well.
She's blaming the producers for not stopping things and shutting it down i can't even get into
the story until you tell me what bachelor in paradise is what the hell is bachelor in pride
i don't know what it is either but if they both drunk you know it's former people from the bachelor
and they all get together and go to paradise so people that have been that's a tv show yeah it's
a tv show oh okay so they stopped production and right now they're investigating so sources are
saying the field producer in question was assigned to shadow Corinne
and started hearing stories from people on the set that she was so drunk she had no idea what was going on in the pool.
And so we do know that Corinne hasn't seen the footage, but other people have seen it.
I'm trying to finish Orange is the New Black Season 5.
I don't know.
Bachelor and Pride.
Right.
I mean, that's a crazy situation, though, because obviously if you're working on set on a show and the people on the show appear to be too drunk to make decisions, you do have to say, all right, that's it.
Everybody out. That's a tough decision to know if somebody's too drunk.
Because, you know, I remember at my baby shower, I was so drunk.
Yes, you were. The next day, I don't remember anything.
But during the time I was having a great time, I was fine.
I thought I was fine.
Did your wife ask for permission that night?
I saw you dancing.
Did you give her consent?
I did not.
You were dancing and everything.
So you need to do what's right.
Shut up.
Right.
So we'll be following this story to see...
You need to go to the authorities, sir.
...what actually happened.
Make her think she can just take it.
But all of the cast members have been interviewed, and they're continuing to investigate the
alleged misconduct that happened on the set.
Right.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports.
All right, now we got front page news coming up.
Yes, we do.
We'll be talking about Jeff Sessions.
He'll be testifying today publicly.
Michael Bennett will be here next hour from the Seattle Seahawks.
That's right.
We'll kick it with Michael Bennett as well, so don't move.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, last night, the Warriors beat the Cavs 129-120.
Durant had 39 points.
He was named the Finals MVP.
Congratulations to the Golden State Warriors.
But the NBA Finals is trash.
I'm sorry.
You know, I don't want to see your NBA Finals only go five games.
You know, at least six.
Damn, can it be a little bit more
competitive? It could have went six.
They should have won game three. I'm not with the whole
super team thing because I don't like
predictable endings.
Screw all y'all who are telling me on
social media that I watch Avengers
and they always win at the end.
I'm going to go see the Tupac movie on Friday.
That has nothing to do with nothing that I'm talking about.
Stop comparing this to the Miami Heat, too.
The Miami Heat were not a super team in comparison to this Golden State Warriors team, okay?
They were a super team, but not like the Warriors.
Not like, listen, the Warriors were 73-9 last year.
Without Durant.
And they added a weapon of mass destruction named Kevin Durant, okay?
Miami did not have that kind of success before LeBron James and Chris Boss came to Miami.
Stop it.
They were a super team, just not like the Warriors.
They were okay. They were good. Stop it. They were a super team, just not like the Walls. They were okay.
They were good.
I wouldn't call them a super team.
They lost the, what, two out of four finals that he did?
Mm-hmm.
Now let's talk about the White House.
What's going on in the White House?
Yes, Attorney General Jeff Sessions is going to be testifying
in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee today.
And that's all about the investigation into Russia meddling in the 2016 election. He's
going to be doing this publicly. A lot of people feel like that was the right decision because
that way there's no hearsay. He said, she said, things could get twisted around if he doesn't
make all of this public. So I guess we'll see what's going on. All this may also be because
of James Comey's revelations as well, former FBI director.
Who got time to sit around and watch white men lie, though?
I ain't got time to watch no Jeff Sessions today.
Comey was a little bit better because you knew he was at least going to be honest.
Jeff Sessions is riding with his team, okay?
He ain't going to tell us nothing.
No revelations are going to be made there.
Well, yes, it's time to see now how loyal is he to Donald Trump.
Is he going to be completely honest? Nope.
Because according to James Comey, he said that
he felt that Jeff Sessions knew
that James Comey and Donald Trump meeting
privately together was inappropriate
and he even approached Jeff Sessions
and told him he did not want to have to do that again,
that he should not come directly to him.
So we'll see what happens. Now, what else you want
to talk about on Front Page News? We'll talk about the Kansas City
prisoner lookalike.
Okay.
This is sad.
Richard Anthony Jones from Kansas was released from jail.
He spent 17 years in jail for a robbery that he did not commit.
Witnesses said they could not tell him apart from another man who actually was from the same area where the crime happened,
who had the same first name as him.
That's crazy.
There was no physical DNA or fingerprint evidence that linked him to the crime at all.
That's crazy.
And it turns out he's
been saying that he was innocent.
He actually reached out and
managed to get this overturned by the
Midwest Innocence Project. That's
a group that helps people who are wrongly convicted.
Prisoners who are wrongly convicted.
So he's finally a free man. He was sentenced
to 19 years and served 17
of those 19 years. I just don't understand
what's new now that wasn't
around 17 years ago.
What happened was that other people were telling
him, you look just like that guy. He's another
prisoner that looked just like him. They had the same
first name and that's when he said, uh-huh.
All my appeals have been denied before
this, but maybe that's what happened.
After 17 years.
He said when he saw that picture
of the guy who is his doppelganger, it all made sense to him. There's no way he had a lawyer 17 years ago He said when he saw that picture of the guy who was his doppelganger,
it all made sense to him. There's no way he had a lawyer
17 years ago. He had a public defender.
That's the only thing. There's no way he had a real lawyer.
A real lawyer would not have gotten him locked up.
There's no way.
Witnesses identified him, and
he looked just like that man, and lived
in that same area.
Talk about profiling.
Let me ask you a question. When he got out, he still had cornrows in that picture, right?
Who cornrolled his hair while he was in jail?
Do they have people come in?
Yes.
Just like people get haircuts and everything.
Oh, so people come in and will...
No, it's the type of people that...
So you're going to act like you ain't never got your hair done by a man.
I never did.
Drop one of Clues bombs for my man Q Lovebug.
My guy.
I love Q.
Q didn't behave in college.
Q did not do my hair in college.
What's the story then?
The name of the person that did my hair was Shalazar,
and she did my hair, and Q worked at the beauty shop.
That's not what Q told me.
You're a liar.
Q told me he put you in the sink, brother.
You're a liar.
And dyed you do.
Well, there's nothing wrong with that.
Q lied.
Q lied. Shout to Q, but Q didn't tell you do. Well, there's nothing wrong with that. Q lied. Q lied.
Shout to Q, but Q didn't tell you that.
That's what Q told me.
Unless that's what I wanted to hear.
That's what you wanted to hear.
You make up stories.
Salute to my guy, Q.
All I know is Morris Chestnut really needs to hope I don't turn into a life of crime.
Okay?
Bye.
Because I'm his doppelganger.
No, you're not.
Nothing like him.
All right.
Well, that's front page news.
When we come back, Michael Bennett will be joining us.
Of course, he plays for the Seattle Seahawks.
And we'll kick it with him with everything that he's talking about,
everything that he's doing.
So don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Defensive end for the Seattle Seahawks.
One of the most outspoken people in the NFL.
Michael Bennett.
Good morning, sir.
What's up, Mumble Rap, Mumble Rap?
What's up, my brother?
Not much, chilling, man.
Happy to be in New York.
Let's talk a little football, man.
Were you upset that the Seattle Seahawks didn't sign Colin Kaepernick?
Of course.
I mean, I thought Kaep would be a good player on our team.
I wish he would have signed with us because
we would have had a good backup quarterback after Russell
Wilson. I think he's a really good
quarterback. I love sacking him, but it would be cool
for him to be on the same team as us.
How real was that? Was it really
about to happen? I think it was real.
I talked to him and I know that he
thought it was really going to happen. Then towards the end
they decided to go with Austin Day.
So that was really one of those shocking things.
Do you think Kaepernick's being blackballed?
Of course I think Kaepernick's being blackballed.
Obviously, all this stuff to do with the issues,
I think nobody likes race and politics and sports.
I think that's one of the things that nobody really wants to talk about.
And for him to bring up race and politics and sports,
I think it struck a lot of people in the wrong way.
I mean, you watch the people that really watch football, it's middle America and not really
the people that buy tickets to the game are really African-American people.
And for him to bring that into that crowd was one thing that people felt like, you know,
they shouldn't have been there.
Yeah, I see people calling for a boycott of the NFL.
I'm not participating in that because I love the NFL.
And you like the Cowboys.
And I love the Cowboys.
But I feel like a hypocrite because the NFL has had rapists,
people that have committed domestic violence.
I didn't boycott then, so I just feel like it would be very self-serving to boycott now. Yeah, I think the NFL has had a lot of criminals in the past,
a lot of rapists and things like that.
So I think a lot of people just want this issue.
We're talking about race,
and we're talking about predominantly black league,
that if this guy's getting blackballed,
and we're spending our dollars, and we're buying jerseys,
I guess they seem to think that a boycott would get him a job.
But at the end of the day, I think that still wouldn't happen
if the teams aren't going to pay their money.
They don't really care what's going on.
Well, you've been very outspoken as well.
Has anybody ever said to you,
hey, maybe you should tone it down a little bit?
I think there's people that always want you to
tone it down a little bit, but at the end of the day
when you look at TV and you see things that's going on
or you're involved in the community,
I'm like, at the end of the day, you're a black man
and no matter how much money you make, you can't get away
from the color of your skin or you can't get away
from issues that are going on in America.
And when you've got a platform like we have, you have to be able to speak up on those issues
because there's so many kids out there that's wanting to know what's going on, hoping that we speak on it.
And when we go into the community, it's a time for people to see that we're real and that we are part of the issues.
And I think that's important for us to use our platform that way.
Well, Jason Whitlock thinks otherwise.
Of course Jason Whitlock thinks otherwise.
Nobody really likes Jason Whitlock.
I think he's one of those guys that believes because you're elitist,
if you have money and you don't have to consider yourself to be involved
with the black community as much as you should be.
And I think that's the opposite.
I think when you're in a position, you have power,
it's important to go back into the community
and make sure you inspire kids, Not to be a role model,
but inspire them to be different.
And hopefully it changes the culture,
it changes the way decisions are made,
and you give them opportunities. So
they say that LeBron James shouldn't be
affected by the N-word written on his house
is one of those things I think is kind
of stupid. Because he didn't see it, they said.
They erased it before he seen it. And how can you tell
somebody what affects them and what doesn't affect them?
That's just ridiculous. That's the new generation.
I think everybody tells people how they should feel,
how they should be, and at the end of the day
is what makes you feel a certain type of way.
And I think anybody that would wake up
and see the N-word on any one of their buildings
or their house, they would be affected by it.
If it was a Jewish guy and they had put
something about the Holocaust, people would be
outrageous. If it was a Muslim guy, they'd put something about hating Islamic. If it was a Jewish guy and they had put something about the Holocaust, people would be outrageous. If it was a Muslim guy, they put something about hating Islamic.
If it was somebody that was gay and they put something that was homophobic on there,
the people would be, there would be a problem.
So I don't see why, if it's an issue about race, why should he have to fall back on that?
Does Russell Wilson get respect in the locker room?
I ask that because that's what a lot of the press said.
He doesn't get respect.
I heard y'all hate him.
I heard some Seahawks hate Russell Wilson.
I don't hate Russell Wilson.
He's invited me to his house.
He had fried chicken, so I'll take Russell Wilson.
Russell Wilson had no fried chicken.
He had fried chicken.
No, I don't like that.
No.
He had fried chicken.
He looked like a grilled chicken.
No, he had fried chicken.
I didn't like the sweet potatoes because it was too fancy.
But other than that, it was good.
Now, is there any truth to the rumor that some of the Seahawks can't stand Russell Wilson?
Because what I always heard was the team was split in half.
Half of the team rolled with Russell.
The other half rolled with Marshawn Lynch.
No, I think everybody rolled with everybody.
I can't say.
I think media is supposed to find a story, and they want to find a way to divide a team.
I think people want to hate Russell Wilson because Russell Wilson has, you know, he's transferred
to sports a little bit. I think
there's like a couple guys in the NFL who trans in the
sport, Tom Brady, Russell Wilson,
and maybe Odell Beckham.
Those are the guys that are on top of everything,
the A-list celebrities. So I think people want to
have that envy about him, but you can't
really because he's a down-to-earth type of person. Is
Future's music really banned from the Seahawks locker
room in Seahawks Stadium?
It can't be banned in my locker because I listen to Future every single day when I'm in the locker room just to get right
March Madness and I'm just jamming.
Would Russell around?
I don't think Russell gets affected by it.
I think he's one of those guys.
He doesn't really get affected by that.
I think he's married to Sierra.
He has a family.
And I think they surpass that small.
Have you ever asked Russell if he likes any of the Dirty Sprites
or any of Feature's music?
Have you asked him?
I never asked him that, but I mean, I suppose.
I mean, you can't get away from Feature in this generation.
It's like he's everywhere.
You go to the club, you're in the stadiums.
Every single team, Feature's the hottest artist out right now.
How was the game when y'all played Atlanta and he was on the field?
Did he just say, you know what, I'm going to throw it this way a little bit?
I don't know. I was too busy trying
to get Matt Ryan. Matt Ryan, we was
Julio Jones, so I don't know. I didn't even know
Future was at the game. I mean, it's
so different, though. He's
married to, you know, Ciara.
They're chilling. Future's doing whatever it is that he's
doing. I don't think they want to be with each other.
I don't think it's a threat, so why would anybody care?
I don't think it's a threat. I think that's the growth in relationships.
I think, I talk to my wife all the time about if i ever got divorced not that
i want to divorce her but i was just saying if we ever gotten a divorce that i would want to be one
of those relationships where we can talk and where we can be friends and i think sometimes when you
marry it and you go and you grow apart like you have to be able to work together i think all you
doing is showing your family and your kids that that you can't work together i mean dating 21
savage and then 21 comes out with fire.
I'll be mad.
I'll be mad.
If you're going to leave me, don't leave me for 21 Savage.
Wow.
But who would it be okay for her to leave you for?
I don't know.
I'm not saying it's okay for her to leave me for anybody,
but I'm saying at least not 21 Savage.
At least not 21 Savage.
I mean, I like Future.
I mean, I like his music.
I like the vibe of it.
I like the cool. I mean, I like Future. I mean, I like his music. I like the vibe of it. I like the cool.
I mean, I like Rick Ross, too.
I don't like, I mean, 21 Savage is straight, but I don't really jam 21 Savage.
All right, when we come back, we got more with Michael Bennett.
We got to talk about obesity.
Also, medical marijuana in the NFL.
So don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee.
Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now from the Seattle Seahawks defensive end, we have Michael Bennett in the building Yee. Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now from the Seattle Seahawks
defensive end, we have Michael Bennett in the
building. Now Charlamagne. Yeah, I got homeboys
in the NFL. They get backlash
for just standing up for
things that are going on, like injustices that happen
in the community. I'm like, is that an NFL thing? Like they just
want y'all to be quiet and play football? It seems like in the NFL
in particular, they really have an issue with
you having things to say about
Black Lives Matter,
about the Women's March, about all of those things. I think it's like one of those things
where you would talk about in your book and you would talk about sometimes you got to,
they want you to hide from your intelligence or hide from things that's going on. And when you
step up to be conscious about things that are going on in society, I mean, people just don't
want to hear it. They don't want you to be that type of person. They want you to be, you know,
the stereotype. They don't want you to be a conscious young black man speaking up on issues that are surrounding your family or surrounding your community, especially when it comes to women.
I think if you think about the way that society treats black women or society talks about women in general and for a man to speak up about it, I mean, people don't want to hear that.
They want you to just shut up and play football.
And that's one of those things that you just can't fall back
and listen to. You just got to do what you think is right
and not really give a s***.
The Colin Kaepernick situation is so confusing to me because I just
don't understand why this man being
punished for doing what's right.
I mean, there's quarterbacks that
have raped people.
Ben Roethlisberger twice! Allegedly!
But they got
new deals. It's just one of those
things where race is really a conversation that's not allowed in sports um you know i'm writing a
book right now it's called things that make white people uncomfortable and oh there you go and
and one of the chapters is called integration of sports and it's talking about you know sports has
always been a place where people have seen and thought that it's been integrated.
But if you look back in time, the players might play on the field, but they go into the different hotels.
They ride different bus.
I mean, Jackie Robinson is still getting called the N-word.
Jesse Owens, he's the champion of the world.
All these Olympic medals had to go through the back.
So it's like sports has never really been really integrated.
And it's like one of those things where people don't like talking about race and sports.
What else is in this book?
What made you want to write this book at this moment?
What are some other things that make white people uncomfortable?
The N-word.
I talk about the N-word.
Not Bill Maher.
Obviously.
And I talk about that in the book, too.
I talk about, like, sometimes you have white friends, and they're around black people all the time.
And they hear us saying the word so much that they become comfortable
and think that they can say it, or they think that they're a part of the culture
and they feel comfortable with saying anything.
I'm sure in the locker room that's happened.
Oh, that's happened a couple times, but, you know, we check them and be like,
look, man, that's not acceptable.
And, you know, guys fall back and they understand that, you know,
okay, maybe I shouldn't be saying it,
or maybe I should get the understanding of the black culture.
As crazy as it may sound, a lot of young white people don't know the history of that word.
I mean, a lot of young black people don't know the history of the word.
And in the book, I talk about that.
In the book, I talk about that I apologize for my use of the word.
I apologize for being, quote unquote, ignorant from the past
and not really taking understanding of the word and talk about how, you know, that the word, it affects both sides.
It affects the old African-American people who are like, it brings up that time.
And then it affects white people because it reminds them of that time
and what was going on.
And you have to be, how do we get past this word
and how do we not associate this word with the black male or just the black woman?
Like when Ice Cube said the other day, that's our word, and y'all can't have it back.
No, they can have it.
They can have it.
I don't want to coach you appropriate to word.
I'd rather call my people a king or a god or brother.
Like, I'm good.
I'm good, too, man.
And it's like, how do you go past that word and not have that word focus?
And to be honest, like, and my wife brought it up to me.
She's like, yeah, you don't really say it around the house ever,
but sometimes you get around your friends,
you feel more comfortable with saying it. And it's like, that's the truth. If I it around the house ever, but sometimes you get around your friends, you feel more comfortable with saying it.
It's like that's the truth.
If I'm around my daughters, I should have the same mindset when I'm around my friends
so that the word means the same thing, and I'm trying to, like, get past that myself.
Medical marijuana, what do you feel about that?
Which one of y'all is the smoker?
No, we all never do.
Nope.
Nope.

This guy.
You know, it's a life.
No, I mean, how much?
He's a Cowboys fan.
Yeah, try to get me.
Give me.
How much?
No, I think medical marijuana is one of those issues that are brought up in sports. Obviously, you know, there's a lot of pill-taking, injections that happen that are for medicine,
whether it's pills that you need for pain, pills that you need for sleep.
And a lot of people argue that medical marijuana is better for you.
If you have an injury that could be healed by it, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use it.
How does that coincide with living in Seattle?
Because Seattle is legal, but you are in the NFL.
The NFL is its own entity.
I don't use marijuana.
I'm not going to get on here and say that I use marijuana. There you go.
But I know that.
Yeah, yeah.
Try to get me to.
No, no.
Never done it.
Never will.
There you go.
Can't want Mike Singletary.
But no, I think it's like one of those things where it's legal there,
but it's like the NFL entity is a part of their regulation that you can't use it.
I mean, you can use it in music.
I hate music.
I can't stand it.
I did two, three weeks ago in L.A., and it's too strong.
Sativa, Sativa.
Yeah.
You know the one that give you anxiety?
I know.
Yeah, make you give you the shakes and all that.
I know about the drug, but I don't use the drug.
I know what it is, obviously.
Now tell us about the Ocean Sports Camp.
Oh, yeah.
So my Ocean Sports Camp is like camps that we do around different cities.
So we work on a native reservation next week, June 17th,
teaching families how to eat healthy, teaching families how to shop.
Food is like the, when we talk about food,
food is like the number one thing that you need to survive.
You know, healthy vegetables are a part of your success in life.
And not having food or being able to access to food
and not having those right things can really hurt a kid's body.
It's like one out of every three kids is obese in America.
I mean, something like one out of two, one out of three adults are obese.
So food is a very big issue in America right now.
And the problem with obesity in America is nobody wants to admit they fat.
Like, soon as you be like, oh, somebody's fat.
Like, oh, it's tough fat shaming.
It's a medical condition.
Like, shut up.
I know you believe in honesty.
For people being overweight, it's not always just that you just eat.
And it's not always medical.
And it also could be.
Majority of it is not medical.
Majority of it is people just being greedy.
But how do you approach somebody that's overweight?
Do you say you're fat, you're obese, or do you try to work with them?
You work with them because a lot of times you're working with people's,
you're working with their psyche.
So you have to be able to build their psyche up.
You don't want to come off and just attack them, Charlamagne. That's not something
you want to do.
I know you do.
Calling someone fat is not an attack.
It's an attack.
There's some people that have trouble with things and they turn to food for comfort
and they have other issues, which is why
they're overeating because of the
issues that they have that have to be dealt with in order to
stop that overeating.
Yeah, the issue is they're hungry all the time.
When is this book coming up?
I'm pushing it for December.
I did it, but I'm looking more towards April
so I could be able to do tours about it and stuff like that.
You got a deal?
Yeah, I got a deal.
I got a book deal, yeah.
That's a great hashtag, by the way.
Hey, market books.
They've done a lot of different things.
I think you should drop it Black History Month, man.
I should drop it Black History Month.
What's it called? Things That Make White People Uncomfortable. That is an amazing book. I think you should drop a Black History Month, man. I should drop a Black History Month. What's it called?
Things That Make White People Uncomfortable.
That is an amazing book.
I can't wait to read it, damn it.
You got to know Kwanzaa.
That's going to be pretty good.
You know you're going to get a lot of backlash for that.
I mean, the backlash on it was real.
That shows that these are real issues.
The issues that I'm talking about is not something I'm making up.
The chapter about Black Lives Matter is a real chapter.
Do black lives really matter?
Society has shown you that black lives have not mattered.
And this is why we created this hashtag.
We have to remind you that we matter.
That's something that's one of the chapters I talk about in the book.
I love books like that because I feel like white people and just other people in the period need to read those kind of stories.
Like I'll read, I read a book called White Trash recently.
It was about the 400 years of whatever.
But I just finished reading that, and it's like,
you should read books about other cultures to see what's going on.
And it's so funny when I bring up the title of white people,
they love it. They're like, oh, I can't wait to buy it.
Are they like, do you want to know what makes me uncomfortable?
No, they do say,
they kind of say that, then I'll be like, no, I don't want to hear it.

You got to come back to promote that, man. I will. Absolutely.
Michael Bennett, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Michael Bennett, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Hov in Kingston.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
Rumor, rumor.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, we've been seeing all these pictures of Jay-Z in Kingston, Jamaica, On The Breakfast Club. to come down to Kingston and asked us if we could have been there to show him around and give him a tour musically in terms of our history in Kingston.
I did some work with him for some stuff he's working on.
I'm not really sure of the details of his project in that sense,
but we worked on some music together.
I've been a fan of his music since he came out.
We've never done any musical work together.
So that was a joy to finally work together musically.
Hey, man, you never stop learning.
I always say give people the credit they deserve
for being stupid, including yourself,
to know it all knows nothing.
So why not always constantly be looking to learn?
And Kingston's a very beautiful place.
I've been there a couple of times.
And the history and the musical history that's there,
it's just a dope place, dope environment.
I'm sure it's very inspirational, too,
for whatever it is that he's working on to go to Kingston,
which has birthed some of the greatest artists that we have.
All right, now let's do the Forbes list
of highest paid celebrities of 2017.
All right, now I'm going to tell you about who's in the top 10.
Who do you think is number one, by the way?
Celebrities?
Yeah, Diddy's number one.
Out of all celebrities?
Out of all celebrities, yes.
He made $130 million this past year. Wow. Beyonce's number two on that list. Oh, are you all celebrities? Out of all celebrities, yes. He made $130 million this past year.
Wow.
Beyonce's number two on that list.
Oh, you're music celebrities?
No, celebrities, period.
I figured overall.
LeBron's on the list.
J.K. Rowling's on the list for Harry Potter books.
Drake is on the list.
Music clearly still makes a lot of money for people who feel like it doesn't.
But a lot of Diddy's money doesn't come from music.
No, it comes from liquor, it comes from...
It's not revoked.
I'm waiting for you to tell that lie.
Let's nip that in the bud right now.
I didn't say it.
Sean John from Ciroc.
People still wear Sean John?
I guess so.
I've seen it in the airport all the time.
He sold a lot of the equity in that, so I guess this last year he made a lot of money
off of that.
All right, Beyonce's number two.
Drake is number four. He made $94 million guess this last year he made a lot of money off of that. All right, Beyonce's number two. Drake is number four.
He made $94 million
in this past year.
Wow.
The Weeknd is at number six,
by the way.
He made $92 million.
And he talked about
how he earned
over 5.5 billion streams
in the past two years,
which then turned into
a $75 million touring advance.
Wow.
There's nobody on the list
that's not in music?
Howard Stern's on the list. Oh. He's at number seven. that's not in music? Howard Stern's on the list.
He's the number seven.
That's kind of music.
LeBron's number 10.
LeBron made $86 million.
Rush Limbaugh made $84 million as well.
Oh, radio booming out here in these streets.
Well, white radio.
Dr. Phil.
Listen, Dr. Phil, okay.
Jerry Seinfeld's on the list.
Mark Wahlberg.
The Rock is on the list, of course.
Kevin Durant made the list.
So, you know, shout out to everybody.
Any new actors or actresses or anything?
Yeah, there's some actors and actresses on here.
Judge Judy made the list.
You know she'd be making money.
Judge Judy makes some money.
Yeah, she'd be making money.
JK Rowling, you said, made the list?
Yeah, she's in the top five.
Wow.
All right, so that's just to let you know about the highest paid celebrities of the year.
Okay, radio and office, they doing well? Pretty good. I'm on the right path. All right, so that's just to let you know about the highest paid celebrities of the year. Okay, radio and office, they doing well?
Pretty good.
I'm on the right path.
All right, and Bill Cosby, his defense...
He made the list?
No.
Oh.
I'm going to the next story.
Sorry.
Sheesh, guys.
Yeah, his wife actually showed up in court for the first time since he's been in court.
And all told, the prosecution called a total of 12 witnesses in
six days. The defense only
called one witness. So
closing arguments and the jury
could begin deliberating this afternoon.
Bill ain't even take the stand?
No, he never was going to take the stand.
That was never the plan for him.
It would have been powerful if he would have went up there and said
that he didn't do it, but he made the decision
not to for whatever reason. He let me be cross-examined, yeah.
Alright, well, I'm Angela Yee, and
that is your rumor report. So what do you do
with Bill if he's guilty?
He gotta go to jail. He has to go to jail?
Yeah, he'll go to jail for the rest of his life.
He's got like a year left, if maybe
two. We don't know how much time he has left.
He's gotten 100 years old already. Yeah, but he'll
have to go to jail. Well, according to
Bill Cosby's lawyer,
he's saying that the sex that his relationship with Andrea Constance was consensual.
He did cheat on his wife.
His wife did deserve better is what was said in court,
but the attorney went on to say that this case could have been filed years ago,
but it wasn't.
This is why this case went into a trash can,
because Mr. Cosby told them everything they needed to know,
and there was more than enough reasonable doubt to find his client not guilty of sexual assault.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
I was born a donkey.
It's the donkey of the day.
It's the donkey of the day.
It's the donkey of the day.
That's pretty funny.
Charlamagne the devil. Yes, donkey of the day for Tuesday, June 13th
goes to a Pittsburgh man named Yuba Sharma.
Now, Yuba Sharma is facing charges
after he allegedly threatened to shoot a Pittsburgh restaurant owner.
Now, let the record show,
Yuba did what all of us at some point in time have thought about doing, causing
bodily harm to someone who works at a restaurant
simply because they got our
order wrong. Nothing worse than
ordering some food to go and then getting to your
destination or getting on the highway and realizing
they got your order wrong, and then you start
questioning yourself. Now I
know I told them no cheese. Then you look at the
receipt and realize they got the order right on the
receipt, but wrong in the bag.
Oh, man.
You're not going to tell me that you immediately don't start thinking about committing some act of violence,
even if it's just verbal.
Okay?
Well, some of us just talk, and some of us bout that action.
And it's those of us who are about that action that remind the rest of us
why committing acts of violence against workers at restaurants is never a good idea.
Let's go to KDKA-TV, CBS Pittsburgh for the report, please.
And threatened to kill employees at a restaurant in North Oakland because they put onions on his food.
Police say that Yuba Sharma was drunk when he placed an order at All India Restaurant on Craig Street.
And when he noticed onions had been added to his meal,
police say that he threatened to shoot the workers and motioned like he had a gun.
Police say that he also pulled down his pants, exposing himself inside the restaurant.
And when officers tried to arrest him, he resisted. We checked Sharma's records and found that he has a long list of run-ins with police, most involving public drunkenness. I told you no freaking onions.
I'm just trying to grab something to eat before I go to this shorty house. I don't got no gum,
no mouthwash. I'm already running late and don't want to stop
at the gas station to grab nothing because she
might change her mind. And you gave me onions.
Now my breath all funky. So when I got to
shorty house, she was leaning back on me.
Wouldn't even let me get a kiss because I smell like a bag
of Funyuns. And it's all your fault because I told
you, hold the onions.
Now the owner of the restaurant said he didn't want
to pursue charges, but he changed his mind
telling police that he no longer felt safe in his restaurant.
Well, I don't feel safe going to a restaurant that can't get my order right.
OK, I rarely eat fast food nowadays, but when I do, I have to attend places I trust.
All right. Chick-fil-A is one of them. We all know Chick-fil-A isn't really a fast food restaurant.
It's a church and all God's angels on Earth work there.
OK, they always get it right. Subway is number two
and it's virtually impossible for Subway
to get your order wrong
because you're right there
micromanaging the whole situation,
telling them exactly what you want on your sandwich.
All right, so that restaurant owner has nerve
saying he doesn't feel safe in his restaurant
after Yuba pulled up with the stick,
demanding some respect
because he told y'all no onions
and y'all gave him onions.
But none of that takes away from the fact
that Yuba was wrong.
Don't go pulling guns on people who get your orders wrong at restaurants.
Just stick to the cursing them out and demanding to speak to their managers that you're used to.
Please give Yuba Sharma the biggest hee-haw, please.
I was going to give him smooth sounds, but then I thought about it.
That's really dumb.
You take a penitentiary chance for some onions.
If it was pickles, then.
For some onions.
If you don't like the smell of onions.
Because I really hate the taste of pickles.
If you don't like the smell of onions, you're really not going to like the smell of hot ass in jail.
Now, you shouldn't threaten anybody, nor should you even think about threatening somebody with a gun.
But you have a drive away, and now you're like, what?
Maybe three miles away from your fast food spot.
You open up your burger and it got something that you don't want in it like mustard.
Yeah.
And then you just stuck and done and now you can't eat it because if you wipe it off.
You have to check in at the drive through.
Yeah.
That's why you got to open it up right there.
Ain't nobody got time for that.
All right.
Well, thank you for that.
You got one job.
Yeah, I'm with you.
You got one job.
Just get my burger out.
You got one job.
Listen, I open my food before I drive off just to check.
Let me make sure everything in here is right.
All right.
Well, thank you for that dunk in the day.
Just some advice.
When we come back, X-Files, all right?
800-585-1051.
Now, if your ex is a horrible person, bad, and you want to warn the world about your ex,
we want to hear from you.
800-585-1051.
Maybe your ex did you dirty. Maybe your ex is violent. Maybe your ex. We want to hear from you. 800-585-1051. Maybe your ex did you dirty.
Maybe your ex is violent.
Maybe your ex is crazy.
Listen, this is the moral of the X-Files story.
One person's trash is just another person's trash,
and we need to make everybody aware of the trash that's out there.
800-585-1051.
Phone lines are wide open right now.
I got a DM from somebody who said their ex gave them an STD.
Oh, we're going to talk about it when we come back.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was Migo's T-shirt.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy,
Angela Yee,
Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now it's time for X-Files.
That's when we open up
the phone lines
800-585-1051.
We want us to tell you
about your ex.
Was your ex abusive?
Was he nasty?
Do you want to warn
the world about your ex
so nobody else dates him or her? I feel like we doing God's work simply
because one person's trash is just gonna be another person's trash and we're
making people aware of the trash that's out there I think we're really doing a
real service to the community by having this segment okay What's up, man? Your ex is a deadbeat?
Man, listen.
It's more than that.
Because, you know, I'm in a financial place right now that I can take care of my daughter.
So I'm not even stressing that.
But when you promise my daughter something, and you promise to get her nails done and her toes done for the dance,
and then it's the day before the dance, and you ask me, can I take them when you know I got to work, and you're not at work?
Come on, man.
Yeah, but you heard Daddy.
You can take her to get her hand nails done.
He was out there. She said she was going to do it.
But she wanted to spend some time with her mommy.
I take care of everything.
I do everything.
I don't ask her for anything on all her day-to-day needs.
I handle everything.
When she lets your daughter down, you be there to pick her up, brother.
What's her name?
You didn't say her name.
Her name is Tanya from VA by way of Chicago.
Anybody in VA that know Rock down in the 75, they already know what I'm talking about.
That's your baby mama, though.
That is.
I give the most respect to her as I possibly can.
As I can.
As I possibly can.
I don't down talk her to our daughter at all whatsoever.
And shout out to all the single fathers out there.
You know, much respect.
How old is your daughter?
My daughter's 14.
Oh, yeah, you got four more years of child support payments,
and your baby mama about to go raise them right now.
You want to put me on X-Files, calling me a deadbeat mama?
Melissa.
Yes.
Tell us about your ex.
What's his name?
His name is Francisco. Francisco.
Somerville. Somerville, South Carolina.
The 843. No, Boston.
Somerville, Mass. Oh, never heard of it.
Now, he was very abusive?
Oh, yeah.
Very.
Like, for a long time, it took me
a while to get out of it, but it eventually
took him causing us to lose it.
Like, I was pregnant, and I lost a baby because of it.
So he was physically abusive or verbally?
Yeah, it started out verbal, and then it got to physical,
and it just got really, really bad.
That's terrible.
Yeah, and what's even worse is it's been, say, like about nine years since we split up.
I now have a beautiful son.
I'm engaged.
And can I tell you, he still, like to this day, stalks me on like Facebook and shit.
He'll make random profiles and message me and like threaten me.
And like police won't even give me like a restraining order.
Like it's ridiculous.
He's a nasty, mean, disgusting, miserable person.
What's his first name again?
Francisco.
From Somerville.
You never called the police on him?
She said she did.
She said she did, and they won't do anything.
I did.
They will not give me a restraining order.
They said that they literally,
we don't see a reason to give you a restraining order.
Now I'm saying, too, because he threatens my son's, like, threaten, like, he threatens my son's life.
That's what's, like, the scariest part.
Oh, I remember.
Yes.
That's crazy.
And it's like.
Because they wait until something happens before they do anything.
Right.
And that, yes, yes, they do.
And that's, like, that's half the problem.
And I get it.
I understand it because there's so many, like, females out there
that'll make false accusations against their boyfriends
on, like, some dumb nonsense.
You know what I mean?
But, like, it really does screw over people like me who, like, need that in place.
You know what I mean?
I got you.
All right.
Thank you, Mama.
Thank you.
800-585-1051.
We're talking X-Files.
Let us know about your ex.

Maybe they're so bad you just want to warn the world and make sure nobody else dates him or her.
We got some emails, Yee?
Well, a lot of people have been hitting me up.
Some person said I have a good story. I was dating a prostitute
and didn't know it.
Another one said my ex got pregnant and came back.
I took her back with her and the baby,
but the whole time she was there,
he was playing baby daddy and it was
somebody else's child. I met somebody
who said they was trying to call in the X-Files
because they used to date your neighbor or something.
My neighbor? Yeah. What neighbor was this?
I don't know. I met a guy.
I forgot why I met this dude.
He was like, I've been trying to call X-Files for the longest.
I used to date Yeezy's neighbor.
Wow.
I don't even know my neighbor.
That's what he said.
Oh.
All right, well, let's go to line seven.
I know you want to be anonymous, but your ex gave you an STD?
No, he didn't give me the STD, but he was actually honest about his STD.
Okay, what STD was it?
It's her STD.
So how are you going to be mad at that man and call up X-Files and tell him because he told you the truth?
No, no, no.
And that's actually why I wasn't mad at him.
I was mad at him about all the other stuff that he did.
What else he did?
He just borrows everything from you.
And he works.
He's a working person.
And if you Google him, he's on a public website.
For having herpes?
No, no.
He is not on that website for that because he's honest.
But everything that he did, he did to me, he's on that website for.
What do you mean?
Borrowing stuff as far as money and not giving it back?
He's just scandalous.
Let me ask you a question.
Yes.
Are you having an outbreak right now?
Stop it.
Oh, God.
No, no, no, no.
Actually, he did tell me or whatever.
So I'm not upset about that.
But everything he said on the website, it's on there.
He did to me.
What's his name?
You want me to tell his name, really? Yes.
Marion.
Gosh.
All right, thank you.
Yeah, I mean, I think you should let the world know who gave you herpes, boo.
Like, I don't see why you're trying to protect him.
My goodness.
Hey, Amanda, good morning.
Good morning. Oh, shit, am I on the radio? yes yes that was the whole point of you calling right now tell us
you know i called like 15 times just now and you got through all right so yeah my ex is freaking crazy and i need everybody to know he's from north newark they call him Tronky. He's a retard.
I swear to God, he got two kids,
and he supposedly only claims one of them when I'm not around.
The one that I have, he don't even come around.
He sold her maybe a year ago when she turned one.
He's over here only got a home when he's with a girl.
Now he on the streets because he defended me to his girl that he's got now.
It's crazy.
I really think he's literally stupid. Oh, you said he defended you to the girl he's got now. It's crazy. I really think he's literally stupid.
Oh, you said he defended you to the girl he's with now?
Yeah, I wasn't even there.
So I don't even know what happened.
So he defended your aunt and he's homeless?
You should give him a place to stay.
Yes, but it's my fault that she kicked him out because of that.
But I wasn't even there. I don't even know what happened.
Why are you so upset?
They have a child together.
She's tied to him now.
You sound sick and tired of being sick and tired.
This is amusing for me.
This is so amusing for me.
I can't wait.
I hope so many people hear this.
He is so crazy, so stupid.
I really think he's, like, got some issues in his head where he doesn't understand me.
I'm going to be honest with you.
You sound in love.
You sound like you.
In love?
Oh, hell no.
I'm in love with somebody else. I ain't in love with this mother******. He's crazy. He's crazy. He's you. You sound in love. You sound like you... In love? Oh, hell no. I'm in love with somebody else.
I ain't in love with this mother...
He's crazy.
All right, now.
All right, Newark.
Thank you, mama.
Goodness gracious.
Well, as we say here on X-Files,
one person's trash is another person's trash.
We're just making you aware of the trash that's out there.
My goodness.
All right.
We got rumors on the way in?
I got all kind of people hitting me up about their exes now.
Yes, we are going to talk about Uncle Luke.
They're going to be making a movie, and I'll tell you
what that movie's going to be based on. Also,
find out who Donald Trump asked on a date,
and she's like, yuck, no.
All right. All that and more. Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
It's about time. What's going on?
Rumor Report. Rumor Report.
This is The Rumor Report. Talk to Report. This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, this is going to be exciting.
Uncle Luke has a movie coming to live crew, basically.
And it's all based on Luke's memoirs, Book of Luke, My Fight for Truth, Justice, and Liberty City.
I'm here for that.
Now, I read that book, by the way.
It's a great book.
I did, too.
You may not have known about Luke
and everything that he's done for this music business.
And here he was on The Breakfast Club
right when his book came out talking about it.
You know, I was interning at the radio station in Miami.
And from that, you know, I learned the business that way.
You know, brought down a little group, 2 Live Crew.
And before you know it, you know, had to change what they did
because a lot of people, and I talk about it in the book, a lot of people don't know Two Live Crew probably was the first conscious rap group.
And then, you know, once I said, hey, look, man, let's do this booty-shaking music with a little bit of Dolemite in it, Mr. Mix was putting it together.
That's basically how the group started.
And before you know it, you know, I started going to jail and became the first person, you know, hip-hop artist to go to Supreme Court.
A lot of what hip-hop is built on is built on a lot of the foundation
that Uncle Luke laid.
Absolutely.
He definitely was fighting for the rights of free speech and all of those things.
Those parental advisory explicit content stickers are on your CDs
because of Uncle Luke, baby.
That's right.
So I think that'll be a really exciting movie.
Absolutely, and it has to be triple X rated.
First ever triple X rated hip hop biopic.
You think so?
It has to be.
Man, shut up, man.
I'm not talking to y'all about Too Live Crew.
Y'all keep y'all New Yorkers in New York.
Not talking to y'all about Too Live Crew.
Can't be naked naked.
Too Live Crew can't be naked.
But you people ought to see it.
The masses got to see it, though.
It's a movie. I would think
that he would want this to be available
in all theaters. Absolutely.
Triple X rated, let it go
to Netflix or whatever. It could be popping.
Okay? It's got to be a lot of nudity.
Lionsgate is already going to be doing the movie,
so we'll see what they figure out.
What they're going to do. All right. Salma Hayek
talks about how Donald Trump
asked her out on a date mad random
and it was a little bit uh disgusting how it happened here's what she said i was in an event
with my boyfriend uh-huh i turned around my my boyfriend so charming so nice he said hello and
then he kept talking to my boyfriend and then he befriended my boyfriend and invited him to dinner
afterwards to go where he was going.
And we went and the whole time he was talking to my boyfriend.
And then he's like, if you guys are in New York, you can come to Atlantic City.
You can stay in my hotel.
Give me your number.
Give me your number.
Never talk to my boyfriend again.
And then, what do you think happened?
Here's what else she said.
And this is on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
Am I crazy?
Are you asking me? You know I have a boyfriend. And this is on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. Am I crazy? Are you asking me?
You know I have a boyfriend.
Right.
He's not good enough for you.
Not important.
He's not important.
He's not big enough for you.
You have to go out with me.
And did you end up marrying that boyfriend?
No.
So Donald Trump was right.
I mean, what is Donald Trump doing that Drake don't do?
Sheesh.
Drake said you need to leave your man.
He's a waste man.
What's the difference?
What accent was that?
I don't know.
That's Drake.
Drake don't even know what accent that is.
He does not even talk like that.
What's the difference between that and what Donald Trump is doing?
It might have worked if Drake did it.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.

Hey, y'all.
Niminy here.
I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.
Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records
brings history to life through hip-hop.
Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus
nine whole months before Rosa
Parks did the same thing.
Check it.
And it began with me.
