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.

It's Thursday.
I've been ripping and running this morning already, so I had to get gas this morning because I could have made it to work maybe,
but I wouldn't have been able to make it home if I didn't get gas,
and it's pouring down raining, and I don't pass a gas station on my way to work.
So what's that mean?
So I had to go a whole different route to get here.
It took me forever to get to work this morning.
No, I don't have
those kind of problems.
I know, you live in Jersey.
And I gas up during the night.
And the reason I gas up
during the night
is because I know myself.
You know what?
It was raining so hard
yesterday on my way home.
I was like, you know,
I'm going to come back out later
and I never left my house again.
Man, I love the hard rain.
I guess because I'm
from South Carolina,
so my whole life
is like it'll get real dark
and all the clouds will come out
and it'll start raining real hard.
I love that kind of energy.
That's some good nap weather.
It's not good
if you have to be outside, though.
Who got to be outside in the rain?
It's good if you don't have
anything to do
and you can stay home.
It is nice when it's raining out,
but when you have to be
running around doing things
and it's pouring down raining
and you have to worry
about your hair getting frizzy,
then it turns into a whole new situation.
Stop.
Take your ass home sometime.
Stop running these streets, Angelique.
I was working.
Okay.
Now.
I have a business to run.
One of my favorites.
No, not one of.
My favorite R&B singer of Generation Now will be here this morning.
Oh, yes.
We all, I think, universally up here on The Breakfast Club support and love this guy. Yes. Mr. Miguel will be here this morning. Oh, yes. We all, I think, universally up here
on The Breakfast Club
support and love this guy.
Yes, Mr. Miguel
will be here this morning.
Drop on the clues bombs
for Miguel.
I think he's promoting
his new single
off of Warren Leisure.
Warren Leisure came out
in December, though.
Yeah, it came out
last year, December 1st.
Come through and chill.
Come through and chill.
It's him and J. Cole.
Produced by Salam Remy
with J. Cole.
I like J. Cole's
first verse on the record. The second verse, I already know. him and J. Cole. Produced by Salam Remy and with J. Cole. I like J. Cole's first verse on the record.
The second verse, I don't even know.
Well, J. Cole had a phenomenal interview with Angie Martinez yesterday.
I didn't get to watch all of it.
Yes.
I was watching some of it, but then it was raining outside, too, so I was like, nah.
It's over.
You can't even watch TV.
Nah, I gotta watch it.
It's raining.
I can't do anything.
I can't do J. Cole when it's raining and thunder, okay?
I gotta watch that a little later.
I'm gonna finish it today, though.
All right, well, we'll have some of that for you in the rumor report this morning.
So no fares.
Don't worry about it.
We got you.
All right, what we got in front page news?
We are going to be talking about two different things that happened on the opposite sides of the spectrum.
Imagine one man threatening to call ICE on you because you're speaking Spanish.
Oh, man, yeah.
And then here's a great situation where the cops actually shut
down a white woman who was harassing
a black man. Well, good. I'm glad
that racism is getting the respect that it
deserves in this country, which is no respect.
Love the way these police officers shut this woman down.
100%. We'll talk about it when we come back.
It's the World's Most Dangerous Morning Show, The Breakfast Club. What song are we
getting into? I don't know. Who?
Crew. Gold Link. Oh, Gold Link.
Crew. Alright, it's the Breakfast Club.
Yep, it's the world's most dangerous morning show,
the Breakfast Club. Charlemagne Tha God, Angel Lee.
I don't know where the hell Envy at. Where Envy at? Oh, he said he was
stuck in traffic because of the rain or something, right? Yeah, it's been raining
for a couple of days now. I know that a lot of people's
flights got delayed and... He's on a flight?
Well, no, I'm just saying in general because of the
rain. Oh, okay. Well, let's get
in the front page news. Last night, the Rockets
beat the Warriors 127-105.
The series is tied 1-1.
Michigan State University reached a
$500 million settlement with
who? With Larry Nassar's
victims. You know about Larry Nassar, the
medical doctor who was
entrusted to provide care
for the young women at Michigan
State University. Oh, his nasty ass
molesting all them young girls. Yes, he sexually abused hundreds of young girls and women at Michigan State University. Oh, his nasty ass molesting all them young girls.
Yes, he sexually abused hundreds of young girls and women,
and Michigan State University is going to pay $500 million.
That's $425 million paid to current claimants and $75 million they are setting aside in a trust fund to protect any future claimants alleging sexual abuse by Larry Nassar.
So Michigan State University will pay this money out of pocket
and then sue their insurance company to get that money back.
Is he in prison yet?
Yeah, he's sentenced to more than 100 years in prison.
I would think he got killed already in prison.
Well, they probably have him isolated from everybody.
Why? He ain't no celebrity?
Because they know that he's going to get killed.
Put his ass in population, okay?
You want to molest them young girls?
Go on and get that karma that you deserve.
There's also accusations, lawsuits against USA Gymnastics, the U.S. Olympic Committee,
gymnastics coaches, and other parties as well.
So this settlement only deals with accusations against Michigan State.
Now, more than 300 women and girls actually came forward to talk about Larry Nassar.
So you can imagine, I'm sure there's plenty more.
Word.
Now, the cops shut down a crack-ass cracker
who called 911 on black real estate investors?
Now, this happened in Tennessee.
Okay.
All right.
A woman, a white woman, called two police officers
because a real estate investor, Michael Hayes,
was actually visiting the home next door,
and he was inspecting the house and taking pictures
before repairs were made.
She was basically harassing him and said that
he was calling the cops and they would be coming
and he's like, I don't understand. Why would you be calling
the cops? Because she's a white devil. He actually
filmed all of it. That's what white devils do. I believe we have
that audio? Yes.
No, we don't? Okay, we don't have that audio.
Alright, so yeah, so when the police
officers came, they actually shut the
woman down and told her that he had every right to be there and that he can take all day and all night if he wants.
He's in control.
He's got a contract, so that is what it is.
And the police officer said if she calls the cops again, she'll actually be in trouble.
That's right, you racist bigot.
Okay, you'll go to jail for your racism, as it should be.
For every great thing that happens, we all of course always see something awful
happening. A man actually was
going to a restaurant in New York City in Manhattan.
He was going to Fresh Kitchen
and he started just berating
the employees and the customers because they were
speaking Spanish in the restaurant.
He told them they were undocumented. He threatened
to call immigration officials on them.
And it was all captured on video.
Check it out. He's speaking Spanish to customers when they should be speaking.
Every person I listen to, he's spoken, he's spoken,
she's speaking, it's America. I will be following up. And my guess is
they're not documented. So my next call is to ISTAT.
If they have the vote to come here and live off of my money, I pay for their
welfare, I pay for their welfare.
I pay for their ability to be here. Yeah.
What's his name?
Aaron what?
Aaron Schlossberg?
Yeah, they did say that he's a lawyer and he works in a nearby law office.
Listen, by the way, all those racist bigots, those racist bigot white devils like Aaron Schlossberg, they know who to play with.
Okay?
They know who to try that with.
All right?
I know me and my conglomerate would love some of that action.
I know Michelle Obama says when they go low, we go high.
Not me.
When they go low, I take it to the floor with them.
You experience a random act of racism like that, you got to give it right back to him.
Okay?
He's telling you that you undocumented.
Yeah, he's telling you that you undocumented and he'll call ICE to have you deported.
All right, shut up, you crack ass cracker.
I pay for their welfare.
I pay for their ability to be here.
You come here and live off my money.
The least they can do is speak English.
The least you can do is not eat mayonnaise with a spoon.
Get out of here.
All right.
Cut this.
That's the least you could do, Aaron.
Okay?
All right.
Well, that is your Front Page News.

The weather's disgusting.

I detoured around three floods today.
So, 805-
New York, New Jersey, and Boston?
Yeah, I know they hit heavy with the rain this morning.
You just gave Boston a weather report, huh?
People in Boston are like, I think it's flooding.
No, it's nasty. They said New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Boston is really nasty this morning. So, gave Boston a weather report, huh? People in Boston are like, I think it's flooding. No, it's nasty. They said
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Boston is really nasty

y'all to get it off
my chest because I
added Cardi B and
asked her to help me

Well, Cardi B
probably didn't see
it because she has
like, you know,
thousands of people
hitting her up.
And Cardi B don't
own Fashion Nova,
boo.
Why you adding Cardi B?
You should be adding
the people of Fashion Nova.
I know, because she's sponsor.
She got to look out
for the people.
She just felt like maybe
Cardi B would have
a little more clout.
My goodness.
Well, sorry you didn't
get your Fashion Nova dress,
mama.
Was it for something?
Was it for prom
or was it for something special?
It was for Mother's Day.
I had me a nice little,
you know, outfit picked out,
but I just refused
to purchase anything
and they still owe me
like $80.
All right, but listen, this is what you do.
Send me a DM right now
because I do know a couple of people that work there.
So I'm going to hit up my guy
and send it to him and see if he can help you.
Good luck.

He's definitely hurt.
Yeah, what happened to you?
There's no such thing as closure.
Pretty much, I've been with the girl for a while.
I heard cheating, and yeah, man, I'm done with that.
So you wanted closure.
He's hurt.
No, no, she wanted closure.
Well, yeah, I guess both of us wanted, like, a mutual goodbye,
but it ain't happening.
There's no such thing as closure, man.
You're either with it or you're not.
Clearly, y'all not no more.
I'm sorry you got your feelings hurt, boo.
Yeah, I'm sorry, boo-boo.
Well, congratulations to the guy.
Congratulations to the guy that had sex with your girl, though.
Oh, stop it.
Oh, man.
Yeah, it is what it is.
Yeah, it's good, right?
He's hurt.
She got good poo-poo.
Somebody got to get it, even if it's not you.
Well, I guess that's closure, then.
And it's okay to be hurt, okay?
It's fine.
Nothing wrong with that.
Yo, at that man on Twitter.
Tell him congratulations.
He banging a good one, all right?
Damn it, man.
Just not good for you.
You guys are not helping.
Hello, who's this?
Hello, it's Rachel.
Hey, Rachel.
Get it off your chest.
I was calling to say I am so blessed this morning.
My new interactive children's book is climbing the charts on Amazon.
Okay, congratulations.
What's the name?
What's the name of the book?
It's called Amber's Magical Savings Box.
It teaches kids about earning and saving money,
giving those millionaires a head start
on their road to financial freedom.
How is it interactive?
Oh, that's dope.
Well, the kids have to write their financial dreams
and goals inside the back of the book.
They follow Amber as she earns money
for this magical toy she wants to buy,
and they have to kind of like walk along with her in this journey.
All right.
That's good.
Teaching kids the value of how to save and spend.
What's the name of the book again?
I'm going to look it up.
Amber's Magical Savings Box.
It's in honor of my niece Amber we lost at the age of three.
So it's for ages three to eight-year-olds just to get them started.
It's a few that can do savings journals
in the back of it and everything.
Okay, thank you, Mama.
All right, I like that.
Thank you.
All righty.
You know what?
The other day a lady called and was like
her son was addicted to Fortnite
and she couldn't get her son off Fortnite.
You know, these kids are making money off of Fortnite.
I don't know if that lady knows,
but she should guide her son into making money off of it.
My son is into Twitch and he does tutorials on
Fortnite and they pay him to do it.
I still think it's some type of social engineering that's
intellectually making these kids stupid.
They can't spend all their time on video games.
All their time on video games, of course not,
but some of these kids are on there. My son does it
about, what, an hour a day, an hour and a half a day?
Will he be able to make a living off that when he's
30 or 40, though? A lot of kids are.
I don't know, bro. Actually, you know what is though? A lot of kids are. I don't know, bro.
Actually, you know what is great is that a lot of kids are learning how to do things in the tech world
just because they know how to use these games.
But you just have to help them take it a step further,
whether it's learning how to code, create their own apps.
You're right.
But, yeah, it is a—if you can help guide them to how that can help them make money
and they're interested in something, you've got to figure out how to cultivate that.
Don't let them be hypnotized by that video game all day and just spend their time
twiddling their thumbs, literally. There's a kid named
Ninja who's making like $300,000, $400,000
a month off of Twitch and
Fortnite. I've heard of Ninja and I'd like to know how many
other Ninjas out there. There's a bunch of them. There's
a lot of them kids out there like that. They might not be making that
much, but there's definitely kids out there making money.
Absolutely. I know when I was that age, I wasn't
making money doing anything, so
if you could figure it out and help.
The problem is I think that as the older generation,
we don't understand some of the things that these kids are doing,
and we got to be more involved in figuring it out.
Yes, and can you make a career out of that?
That's what I want to know.
You can.
Yeah, you absolutely can.
I don't know.
Let's see.
No, you can.
I got to talk to somebody 40 years old that's been doing it.
When I was doing the mixtapes, they was like,
well, you can't make money off of mixtapes. Maybe they don't do
mixtapes no more.
See what I'm saying? But you transcended to what's going on.
What you said is right.
It's got to elevate to something else.
And I'm sure it will, because these kids are doing it. They done went from
YouTube to
this. But it's important for you
to watch what's happening, because the whole
world, the tech right now, that's what's going to be the money
for the future. It's happening right now. world, the tech right now, that's what's going to be the money for the future.
It's happening right now.
Kids, keep running. So we've got to figure out how we can help guide them and even put them in programs
and teach them how to do things that can actually make them be economically viable with it.
Absolutely.
Well, get it off your chest.

Nayib, we got rumors on the way?
Let's talk about T.I.
This was the big story yesterday.
What went on with T.I.? Did he get
arrested or was he just inconvenienced?
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked.
This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Alright, morning everybody. It's D.J.
N.V. Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club. What's happening?
Good morning. Happy Thursday. Let's get to these
rumors. Let's talk TI.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On the Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, what happened with TI?
Apparently, he was trying to get home into his gated community. It was 4 a.m.
And he got into some type of argument with the guard that was at the gate.
Now, according to law enforcement sources, they're saying that T.I. did, in fact, manage to get into his gated community.
He didn't have his key, and I guess they had to call Tiny.
And he initially had gotten into an argument with the guard, but then he returned on foot to confront the guard again,
and that's when the guard called the cops to the scene, and they ended up arresting him.
Also, law enforcement sources
are saying that T.I. did not
touch or make any type of physical contact
with that security guard, but the guard feared
that he would be hit. So why was he arrested
if he didn't touch or assault the guy?
During their dispute. So they actually arrested
him for
disorderly conduct, public drunkenness,
and they said simple assault.
I knew there had to be more to this story because the way the story was told yesterday,
he pulled up to his gate, couldn't get in, and then the guy called the police on him
because they started arguing.
But if T.I. came back to talk to the guy, the guy probably felt threatened.
Well, they said the guy cursed out his wife, and when he got home, a tiny bobby toe.
Well, I'm going to tell you the whole story now, guys.
So T.I.'s attorney says that it actually took Tip some time to wake up the sleeping guard.
He was asleep when T.I. first pulled up.
And then T.I. identified himself.
He tried to get in.
The guard refused.
And then Tip was in contact with Tiny by phone.
Tiny confirmed that Tip should be let in immediately.
And the guard continued to refuse entry without justification.
So eventually they did let him in.
And that's when he actually came back
and argued. If the guard knew,
there's got to be a new guard. I don't know.
There can't be a guard that's been working there.
What the problem is... The guard was black.
The guard asked who he was. I don't know.
No, he was. He was African-American.
He said he didn't recognize T.I.,
according to the security guard, so that's why
he didn't let him pass, and that's when he said
T.I. started basically cursing him out,
telling him to open the gate, and eventually he did open the gate.
You don't recognize T.I. in Atlanta.
That just sounds crazy.
If I was that guard, I wouldn't want to work there anymore
because T.I. is going to get him.
Hell.
Who do you think T.I. was?
Here's what T.I. had to say.
I guess y'all been hearing all the nonsense.
I'm looking like yesterday, man. I was inconvenienced and arrested. With all we done been through, this is small potatoes, man. Major's birthday. I'm here, present at school. Ain't been to sleep, parole no more? Because that could be a probation or parole violation. Right, well, he was released without bail,
so that's good news.
But he was actually arguing with the police officer, too,
and saying that he has a right as a homeowner
in the community to question the security
guard working the gate. Duh.
And the cop did not agree with that. So they did agree,
though, to settle matters in court. So that is
what's going to happen. The guard said
he couldn't find T.I. on the resident directory.
Yeah, because he probably was looking for T.I.
You should have been looking for Clifford Harris.
He said he didn't recognize him.
T.I., rubber band man, hip, okay,
dope boy in the trap.
So he looked for both.
He didn't look for Clifford Harris.
And then tiny-ass security guard,
what's the holdup?
Just let him in, and that's when the guard said,
who the F do you think you is talking to me like that?
And that probably spoke to T.I.
You don't talk to my wife like that.
First of all, T.I. probably hated that grandma. Who the F is you to think is talking to me like that? And that probably spoke to you. You don't talk to my wife like that. First of all, T, I probably hated that grammar.
Who the F is you to think to talk to me like that?
T, I probably was appalled at that type of grammar,
me and you using him at 5 in the morning.
My goodness.
All right, now Wale has signed a new record deal.
Congratulations to Wale.
He was on Atlantic, but now he is on Warner.
So he did announce that he has signed that.
He said, this is an exciting step for me.
I'm thrilled to be at a company that is willing to showcase my artistry while supporting my entrepreneurial spirit. I felt their passion, commitment, and enthusiasm from day one. They believed in my vision wholeheartedly, and I am ready to show and prove.
Drop one of the clues bombs for my guy, Wale. Wale been smoking all year, by the way.
Yeah, he put out his EP, Self Promotion. He said that's going to be his last independent record, and he had said new chapter. Wale has not missed yet
all year long, okay? The record he got,
Cassius? Oh, my God. And he also has
a song called Staying Power out now with Jacquees.
I mean, Black Bonnie

He just put it out when he made the announcement.
Alright, now Nicki Minaj, she's
going to be at Highline Ballroom in New York City.
That's her after party for her appearance
on Saturday Night Live.
That's right, she is going to be on the season finale
of Saturday Night Live.
They did announce that.
And in addition, she posted season finale
with the one and only Tina Fey.
Gotta be effing kidding me.
OMG, she and I are shooting our movie
after Saturday's show airs.
Yikes, get your whole effing life hose.
In fact, that's the name of the movie.
It's called Get Your Life Ugly.
Nikki Minaj.
Yeah.
Shout out to Clu.
Clu's DJing that after party, too.
Of course he is.
Why you say it like that?
Because it's a nice little Queen's loyalty that goes on that you don't know nothing about
because you ain't loyal to Queen's envy, okay?
What?
Nikki and Clu are loyal to each other.
Because I speak my mind and I say what's true. Oh, yeah. You don to Queens, Envy. Okay? Nikki and Clue are loyal to each other. Because I speak my mind and I say
what's true. Oh, yeah. You get mad at me
because I speak my mind and say what's true.
All you Bobs need to get on Twitter right now
and remind Envy that he's from Queens.
Don't get up off his neck.
Y'all was on him last week. Don't let up off him.
Don't do this.
Are you going to the party Saturday? No. Why not?
I have other things to do.
Shady boots.
What you got to do?
I'm actually doing a show down the block at Club Taj.
So you're doing a competing party.
Who's hosting it?
There is no competition.
Who's hosting it?
Cardi or Cash Doll?
Who's hosting it?
All of the above.
And Remy.
All of them.
They're coming for you, Envy.
Oh, my goodness.
Okay, so yeah.
What emoji should they use for Envy right now?
Envy and Remy are doing a party on Saturday.
Don't say Remy.
Clue and Nikki are doing a party somewhere.
Which one you all go to?
Now, don't say that.
Clue and Nikki.
You keep saying things and then saying don't say that.
No, no, don't say that.
I'm going to see Remy.
Now, Remy's not booked today.
It's just me at Club Taj.
Don't bring Remy into your mess.
I'm just joking.
All right.
Bob's, get on his ass.
They've been on my ass since last week.
I'm tired.
Get off my ass.
Whoa.
Whoa.
All right.
That's your rumor report.
I'm Angela Yee.
We're going to just keep it moving right now.
I've been trying to figure out why they use the unicorn emoji.
Because they want to stick that horn up your ass.
That's why.
Right. All right. Awkward. All right. Here comes some more unicorns. I'm going to start it off they use the unicorn emoji. Because they want to stick that horn up your ass. That's why. Right.
All right.
Awkward.
Here come some more unicorns.
I'm going to start it off.
No, thanks.
All right.
Now, when we come back, Miguel will be joining us.
So we'll kick it with Miguel.
So don't go anywhere.
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.
Yes, sir.
Miguel.
Splish. What up, bros? Welcome welcome back what's good I feel like I talk to you all the time because your voice is always on in my bedroom no I mean that right all right
I got a feeling it's never by himself so that's good
we know it's a purpose of the music So that's good. Never bought myself. Never bought myself. Yeah. I don't think there's nothing wrong with that.
We know what the purpose of the music is.
Exactly.
Exactly.
I always say when I saw you again, I was going to ask, do you think the massive success of
Kaleidoscope Dream with Adon and How Many Drinks made people not appreciate your projects
after that the way they should have?
No, actually, not at all.
I think the music finds people at the right time, you know?
And I think at the end of the day, when we're creative,
the point is just to create, you know?
So regardless of how and when things find,
for Kaleidoscope Dream, that was the right time for, you know,
that time and the people that found it.
And for all the, you know, projects afterwards,
it's just, you know, the timing for that.
Wild Heart was for that time and for people
at that time, and War and Leisure
now is for now, and there's gonna be
more and more. I'm not stopping, you know?
And you never chase the success of a dawn
on how many drinks. That's what I like.
Like, Wild Heart don't sound like Kaleidoscope Dream.
War and Leisure don't sound like, you know,
a Wild Heart. That's what I like.
War and Leisure's definitely very timely, it feels like, also.
Love. It feels like you're very affected by
things that are happening. Try to just
be mindful, you know? It's hard not
to acknowledge everything that's just right
in front of us all the time. Plus
now, we do have, with, like,
social media, you know, we're
getting to see things as they happen
more and more, and also it's
not being let go. It's not being swept under
the rug as much as it could have been in the past
with controlled media, you know what I'm saying?
So we get to see a lot of things in repetition
and things kind of get pushed to the forefront.
It's hard to ignore it.
I think that's why we get things like the video
from Childish Gambino.
That video is incredible.
And Kendrick.
And we get verses like
Cole's on Come Through
and Chill, you know? Where we're still hearing
even in the middle of a song like
Come Through and Chill, we're still being
brought back to current events.
You chased his dad? Yeah, kind of a downer though.
I just said. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.
I actually said that to him. I was like, I love this record.
J. Cole, come on, bro.
We've been trying to get some girls over and have a good time.
You know what I mean?
Listen to different things.
It was properly placed, kind of towards, you know.
Yeah.
He put that in the right space in the song.
Come through and chill.
We still want you to come, bring that green, you know.
Yeah.
It's cold over there.
You talking about God body stuff?
That's when you kind of start talking about things like that, too.
When you really are chilling with somebody,
I think you should be able to have those conversations.
Oh, yeah, absolutely, absolutely.
I'll be on the table, you know?
With the landscape of R&B has changed,
since I'm sure you would listen to it,
do you chase that type of music that can still play on radio?
Because you don't hear R&B music anymore on radio.
It's not something that you listen to unless you have to go find it.
It's not in your face.
Although we hear Skywalker every morning.
That's good. And that's my song.
And I hate that it took so long for us to start
playing that because the first time I heard
that song, I was like, that is a hit record.
It's very far. Do you chase that?
No, I think it's no longer
time for chasing. You know, we can't
chase energy. Either the energy is going
to come and you're going to let it flow
or you're going to waste time. It's more about, again again it's just like just putting it out there like as a as an artist as a
and and not just like for music it's across all platforms you know i i'm creative regardless
if it's with music if it's writing if it's with drawing or doodling or whatever ideas for visuals
um photography this and that going to to look at live art performances,
all of these things, it's like we're just putting energy out.
And to chase is such a waste of time.
I think we all know this, and we've learned it.
That's why you guys are here.
You stop chasing it, the energy's coming to you,
and you know how to just reciprocate.
And once I think we learn how to do all that,
that's the war and leisure of life you
know you just figure out what your energy is and how to give it in the best way and it just always
reciprocates and that's the beauty of the whole thing and it is a waste of time because you're
not doing what you want to do to begin with and if you make a record like that and it's not what
you're really feeling and it comes out and it flops then it's like damn yeah you start to learn
too it's like people especially now it's like we see right through bulls you then it's like, damn. Yeah, you start to learn, too. It's like people, especially now,
it's like we see right through bullshit, you know?
It's like people just want the real anyway.
I love, I said it earlier,
do you switch up your messaging and your energy on purpose every album?
Like, do you purposely say, I'm not doing that now?
I felt a need to, and not felt,
I think it's always like every day
wanting to level up, you know? And not the, I mean, I guess it's always like every day wanting to wanting to level up, you know
And not that I mean, I guess that's kind of like that. Yeah, everyone, you know, we all want to level up
But I think that's the that's the intention, you know, it's like okay
What else do I have you know to give and that's that's why the album sound different because my life is evolving
Yeah, it's like changing but it with your look evolving at the same time, too.
Yeah, you know?
You got dreads now?
Yeah, the locks, you know?
The locks.
What made you do that?
I don't know.
We got better things to talk about than my hair, though.
I was like, yeah, I remember.
You know, can you remember when I had the Caesar?
The Caesar.
I couldn't even grow hair on my face.
It's funny.
You started eating more.
What happened?
I guess so. You know, I guess so. Wait, you couldn't grow hair on my face. It's funny. You started eating more. What happened? I guess so.
You know, I guess so.
Wait, you couldn't grow hair on your face?
You were trying?
It just wouldn't.
It wouldn't fill in.
You know, it just wouldn't fill in.
Now, you also, I saw, went to Mexico and met that side of your family.
How did that impact you?
That changed my life, for real, Angela.
It really did.
And not in a way that's like, it just made my connection to my family deeper
you know it's like okay we know we know that you know our family makes sacrifices and you've seen
it you saw like you know your immediate family if it's your mother your father whoever it is you
grew up they made sacrifices and you got to see that but we often forget that not only did they
it's like their parents and their parents and all of the people before them.
So going back to Mexico, to Zamora, Michoacan, that's where my family's from.
You know, my grandmother, rest in peace, she left there on her own and and and came to the States as an immigrant and started working to provide for her family.
And it took three years before my dad could come up.
My grandfather was taking care of the family there because she couldn't,
she wasn't earning enough money to bring everybody out at the same time.
So she came first.
She worked for a, she worked for a hospital and sent money, you know,
and over the course of three years, then my family was able to move up,
you know, and she gave up her dreams.
You know, she, she also was was she was in love with music sang on the radio with her sister and um just i
just think of the sacrifices so when i went back back there just really made it deeper because i
just realized like how much sacrifice goes into giving us the opportunities that we have now
now what made you want to embrace your your roots? Was it the community saying, hey, man, you're one of us?
I guess for just creating, I guess I just was like, all right,
what else is there?
And wanting to dig deeper.
Like exploring the whole totality of yourself.
Yeah.
And feeling that connection of your roots because sometimes
until you go somewhere and meet people,
you don't even understand what that feeling is like.
It's weird because I grew up with my, like all of my family, you know, all of my tias and my tios are all pretty much, there was a concentration, at least growing up, they all lived in Englewood where my dad grew up in the States, you know.
So I knew all of my tias and my tios, my nana, my tata, they all lived in a small area.
We spent a lot of time together. So I grew up with a real tight-knit family
and really understood what the culture,
you know, Mexican culture was in my life, you know?
And they hold it serious to you, too.
Like, they put you on a pedestal in that community,
and they have from the very beginning.
And I notice that no matter where I go,
especially in L.A.
Like, when it's a Mexican community or that community,
they hold you to the highest level.
I think that's dope.
I think our communities need support to support each other like they support you.
I feel like that's happening, though.
I really do feel like it's starting to, like, for black culture,
I think it's being pushed into the forefront that there needs to be a support system
and a unity regardless of, you know, way of life or taste and this and that.
I think it's like more about celebrating and uplifting each other just because it's like,
no, we are all we have, you know, and the culture has been stripped and systematically
pulled from black people here in the United States where the culture is just capitalism,
you know.
And so now we're starting to look at it and go, oh, hold up.
Nah.
Look at how these cultures that were raised with, like,
where family is the unity, is the unit and the nucleus of all of it,
and let's mimic that.
And we're starting to see that with, you know,
I just think, like, through social media
and because of having to address all of the real issues,
it's starting to happen.
All right, we got more with Miguel. When we come
back, keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy
Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are
The Breakfast Club. We have Miguel
in the building. Charlamagne? You're doing a Spanish
album too, right? We're doing a Spanish version
of this album, War and Leisure. Oh, War and Leisure.
How far along are you with that?
Because I know you did,
you already did a couple of songs.
We're pretty deep in it. I'm super excited, man.
We're actually
almost done. I'm going
to Mexico actually tonight.
Because I know it's going to have a different type of flow.
Is that difficult? You have to change the words
up. It's a completely
different, a whole other game.
It's a whole other game.
Because you're trying to convey the message,
but actually I think Spanish is a much more poetic language.
All the languages of love are just way more poetic.
Right.
But it also makes it, and the rhyming is different.
So they say when you learn a different language,
your mind is like rewired to think in a different way
because the words have different connections to each other.
So it's been dope to kind of like, you know,
do iterations in Spanish and try and get the same idea.
I've been listening to Spanish music
and I have no idea what it's being said.
You got to hear Skywalker in Spanish.
Like, I love Duda.
That's my song.
And I run to that song all the time
and I listen to it over and over, but I have no idea.
I don't even know what Duda means.
Calamelo duro.
That's like just hard candy.
Oh.
Just, yeah.
Hard candy?
Like mints and stuff?
You know, like tiniest.
What's wrong with you, bro?
Can you give me a little skywalker in Spanish?
How does that sound?
The Spanish version goes, Déjate llevar por la sensación
Relajar y fluir a cerrar la noche
Blue skywalking on his haters
Celebramos llegando más alto
No creo que sea el final
Lo bueno está por llegar
No duerma, ven a volar No duerma, ven a volar Did you know how to speak Spanish before?
I learned, you know, growing up, spending a lot of time with my dad's family, especially in the summers.
I was speaking fluent Spanish, like, with my nana, my tata, my tios and my tias over the summers.
And then I would leave and completely kind of lose it
because I was between my parents' divorce.
So I spent a lot of time in the summer with my father's family
and kind of like every other weekend.
For those of you who understand how they do divorces
and how it's been, it's normally like alternating weekends,
however your parents get it arranged.
But for us, I spent a lot of time in the summer.
So over the summer, I would be, by the end of the summer, I'm like, I can speak Spanish.
And then, yeah, it's just practice.
What's Normal Anyway, right?
It feels like that record seems to fit this era more than it did two years ago.
Crazy.
Yeah, What's Normal Anyway off of Wild Heart.
That was a good time, man.
That's probably one of my favorite tours I've done. You know, I felt it was a real connection to my core audience,
like real fans of Miguel that are just like,
we're fans of anything you create.
And it was all centered around what's normal anyway,
which is all just about going at the end of the day
when you realize that there really is no standard and all of this is designed to make you feel like you've got to fit inside some kind of box.
When you realize that there is no box, you start to just be like, oh, man, you can be and do and and thrive in the way that you really should.
Because you can just acknowledge like, no, this is who I am.
This is what i want this is what i believe in regardless of all of the all of the things that we are taught and and pushed to believe and um look for and
strive for so yeah yeah that's why i feel like in this era right now it's like what is normal all
the blueprints of whatever you thought has been ripped up nowadays yeah yeah it's a beautiful
thing again but that's how it leads into war and leisure.
And who wants to be normal anyway?
You know, it's a lot of people
who say they don't want to be normal,
and it's like, it's a lot of this,
it's still a lot of copy-paste, you know?
I think everybody, it's hard to, like,
not pull your phone out
and just look at what everyone else is doing.
That's programming.
Yeah.
Even if it's subconscious,
you're still seeing and able to go,
oh, this is what this person is doing. Oh, yeah, a lot of social engineering going on nowadays. Yeah. That's programming. Yeah. Even if it's subconscious, you're still seeing and able to go, oh, this is what
this person is doing.
Oh, yeah, a lot of
social engineering
going on nowadays.
Yeah, it's insane.
But, you know.
Why are you wearing
two watches?
One for New York time,
one for L.A. time
because a lot of the business,
you know,
by Storm Entertainment,
big shout out to Mark Pitts,
that's here.
Okay.
That's RCA.
That's here.
So, business hours here,
I got to be up
for business hours
in New York
and in, you know, L.A.
Now, you have such a connection
with your fans,
and I've seen you out and about
interacting with people,
and you love your fans.
But do you have certain rules?
Because sometimes you take pictures
with people,
and it could be something
that they post.
You're a couple now.
Yeah, or anything could happen.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, it's definitely posed
some challenges.
Yes, it has and learning experiences.
Absolutely.
So what does that mean for you?
Because sometimes it's difficult.
You love your fans,
but then you don't know if somebody is going to post you and say something
crazy.
I think at the end of the day,
it's just discretion.
And also we're not stupid.
Like we see what kind of culture it is now so one just being
absolutely aware of what it is and it's okay to be respectful you know and also say no you know
and decline there's a time it's just a time is it no no no i'm saying that's how you look at other
people well at the end of the day you just gotta be to be like, no, I mean, I'm not an asshole.
If you knew better, you know, all good.
And if that's what you think after the interaction, then that's you.
That's your reality.
I've never seen you say no to anybody.
Well, I have politely.
You know what I'm saying?
Even more so now because I understand what happens when you don't say no at the wrong time.
So, you know, it's just learning experiences.
I appreciate that you didn't just go ahead and just jump all the way in,
but you asked me in a really good, in a dope way.
Thank you.
What's the jumping all the way in?
What am I missing?
Yeah, yeah.
Good job.
No, because I'll just say it.
Because there was a moment a year and a half, two years ago,
where I took a photo with someone,
and they accused me of something that I didn't do.
And that's the part where you go, okay, hold up.
This is real life now.
You know what I mean?
Now it's like the attention that you're bringing is not the kind of attention that I'm putting out there.
I don't want that kind of attention.
My home is tough right now because of it.
Yeah.
I miss that whole moment.
I don't even remember that.
Good.
Let's not rehash.
Yeah, you guys can Google it and see exactly what happened.
And be Google now, please.
But that's the, again, I keep saying this.
That's why War and Leisure was the proper title for this album.
It's because life is about learning and leveling up.
It's about understanding, all all right what can i do better
now and because you have a moment where you're like oh you know what that wasn't the right choice
i could have done that better looking at it and studying the tapes and going i can do that better
next time and doing it better that's the war in lesia of it all and that's why i think this album
is the most relatable because that's how i approach the whole thing. It's like, how can I connect with my fans and just explain that, like, life is worth celebrating, even through all the
bulls**t that we're seeing and dealing with, not only on, like, a social level, community level,
as an individual, we all go through hard lessons, you know what I'm saying? Or challenging times, trying, you know, our patience, trying our integrity, trying our our beliefs, you know, our our real beliefs.
And it's how we come out of those things that really show us who we are.
And there's so much to celebrate in that when you come out on the other side and you're like, yeah, yeah, cool. I'm better.
That's what I love about like, you know, in Oakland, I think a couple of days ago when the woman called the police on the black people that were having the cookout.
And then the very next day they came back with more people and partied and danced.
And I was looking at Amanda Seale's Instagram and she had an idea.
Like, yo, we should do that all the time.
Like, go party at Waffle House.
Don't buy nothing.
But just 100 people show up, order water, and just have a ball.
You know what I mean?
Like, I feel like we should do that more.
Find a way to celebrate. show up on the water and just have a ball. You know what I mean? Like, I feel like we should do that more. Yeah, yeah.
Find a way to celebrate.
And there's positive ways to address.
What that teaches us is there's positive ways to address, like, negativity.
You know?
I think that's a new thing, I think, which is exciting.
It's like seeing people go, oh, man, I'm going to support positive energy.
I'm going to meet the negativity with positive energy threefold.
Everyone starts to look at the problem and go, that was stupid.
More people want to be where the positivity is at, period.
All right, we got more with Miguel when we come back.
Let's get into a Miguel mini mix.
Let me know your favorite Miguel joint.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was a Miguel mini mix.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Miguel's in the building.
Now, I heard you meditate.
How important is meditation to you?
Ooh, it's been, it's definitely changed the game for me.
How?
It's made understanding when I'm not in the moment
and completely, like, calm.
It's made me notice it you know and then I can go
I could check myself I was just having a conversation with my boy and we all go through go
through stuff and he we were just you know he just let me know what's going on I was like man
the thing is is like it's so hard to stop looking back right again war and leisure, you know? It's like we look back because that's what we know,
but we can't change that.
We can't change what's behind us.
We can only change or affect what's happening later,
and right now is the moment to do it.
Time, the pages are going to turn.
Time is going to move forward,
and whether or not you're aware of it
or you're paying attention to it,
tomorrow's going to come.
The next minute, the next hour, the next blah, blah, blah.
All that is coming regardless.
So the moment we focus on here and now and get our minds off of the past or tomorrow,
the more we're able to live in a way that really makes us happy here and now.
And the more we do it, you know?
Sometimes we get obsessed so much over things that have happened already
when we should be focusing on how we can affect what's about to happen next.
And that's so true.
Just now, you know?
This is about right now, always.
The power of now.
How good of a meditator are you?
Because it's very difficult for me.
I mean, I still suck at meditation.
Yeah, yeah.
I didn't say I was good at it.
My therapist is teaching me some good exercises,
but it's hard to just turn this off.
It is.
It's hard, man.
It's like, though, it took me a long time to, and I got, like, dad body right now, so it's been nice.
I've been enjoying a lot of beans and rice, you know.
Damn, you really embracing this Mexican thing.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I've always been.
I've always been.
The beans and rice, I've always been in the staples.
But it was hard.
It's like working out, you know?
You work out.
First time you work out, you might throw up
because your body's not used to it.
But then you'll be sore the next day
or the next time you work out,
but then you work out and your body starts to adjust
and blah, blah, blah.
And like this, you see bodybuilders
or you see people who are getting in shape.
It was hard the first time.
If you're doing yoga, whatever,
you may not be as able to do the exercise. But as you do it and you continue, you start to see the benefits and it's
no longer like it's it's not about the struggle of doing it. It's about the happiness you feel
afterwards, you know. So whenever it gets more challenging, because some days are easier than
others or sometimes are easier than others. I just remind myself. I always feel good
afterwards, you know?
Come through and chill.
Has the Me Too
Time's Up movement
caused you to slow down
on just inviting chicks over?
I mean, I think
life has definitely
made me, you know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm engaged now,
you know.
Oh, congratulations.
I feel like you've been
in a relationship
for quite some time
so you haven't had
those issues. Yeah, it's definitely been, I've been blessed. Yeah. you've been in a relationship for quite some time so you haven't had those issues
yeah it's
it's definitely
I've been blessed
I've been blessed
yeah
but um
yeah I think
the Me Too movement
is um
I don't think
that's the
that's what it was
for me
you know
not even I don't think
that's not what it was
for me but um
I don't know
that's all I have to say
he was engaged
that's why
nobody coming over and chilling.
I was like, yeah, no.
Isn't it nice that being in a relationship can keep you out of a lot of trouble?
I've definitely rolled the dice in the past,
and being able to just focus on the fact that I have a real teammate,
someone that's been by my side, that I'm a real teammate, someone that's been by my
side, that I'm a ride for,
and that really, really loves me for me,
and I love her for her.
It completely frees your mind up
and time up for things that really
matter, or your real goals.
I think that's what happens. You start to be
like, oh, I got all this time
now. Right. When you focus on it.
Exactly.
That's why. You've been engaged for a minute, oh, I got all this time now. Right. I got to buy two watches. Exactly. That's why.
That's the two why.
You've been engaged for a minute though, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You scared?
Butterflies?
Anxiety?
What's up?
Busy.
Busy, busy.
There's like, I wasn't aware of all the planning that goes in.
I didn't know all of it.
Oh, man.
Let me help you out.
Let her do it and just say, yes, babe.
Trust me, that's what I...
Yes, babe.
Whatever you want, babe. Yes, babe. Yeah. I love it. Are her do it and just say, yes, babe. Trust me, that's what I... Yes, babe. Whatever you want, babe.
Yes, babe.
Yeah.
I love it.
Are you going to write a special song for the wedding?
That's what I'm saying.
I'm going to get a marriage music going to be fire.
If I do.
That's going to be a banging song.
There's been so many so far, but I'm forever inspired by her.
You know?
So I'm sure the music is going to come.
That's always going to come.
You already made a fire wedding song.
Adorn is a phenomenal wedding record.
Yeah, man.
Yeah.
You know you're going to be performing that
when you're 60, 70, right?
That's a timeless song.
Exactly.
It's a timeless song.
It'll be here forever.
Do you picture what your wedding's going to be like?
Cookouts.
Yes, 100%.
In your head, are you like,
okay, I want a big wedding.
I want this.
I want this to happen.
We already have big families.
Between my father's side, look, my mom and my dad both have, my mom has six, seven siblings.
My father has nine total.
It's total nine.
So, and then they all have children, you know?
And her family is Persian and Mexican-Spanish,
so there's just a lot of siblings there,
or a lot of family on that side.
That's going to be a real party.
Yeah, yeah.
So, you know, it's been fun.
Like 600 people, you think? 700?
No, no, we can't go that far.
I actually like to, I mean,
I keep a lot of things very chill, you know?
I like to focus on the music and whatnot,
so we're not trying to make it like some you know extravaganza we want it to be like a family a family event you
know for us so it'll be it'll be as small as we can keep it that's the again the war and leisure
of it all trying to figure out how to keep the balance like oh you're not gonna advise
your family you just met in mexico yeah we're only telling we're only telling family to come through
and chill you know family friends family, friends, you know.
Keep it small.
Is Salam Remy your favorite producer?
Man, he's definitely a GOAT.
One of my favorite producers of all time
and one of the best mentors.
He had great chemistry.
Our first time working, the fact that I was able to be like,
do you mind if I just write this, like, by myself?
You know what I mean?
And just kind of sit with the music.
And that's the thing about Salam.
He knows how to jump in and how to take a...
There's an art in that.
It's an art to helping an artist have the inspiration they need,
giving them the inspiration they need,
and then knowing when to...
And that's why he's timeless.
Because he could jump in and he knows knows how to play he plays the game oh
what you need me to meet a quarterback okay you need me to you want me to run
the ball you know say you want a lob you want you you know I'm saying you need
the bullet what do you what do you need and he can he doesn't have to ask the
question he just has a conversation with you and then he's like okay I know how

Nice.
Me too.
Yeah.
I'm sure y'all got some stuff
in the stash.
There's a few.
Him, Rafael Sadiq, man.
Again, one of the greatest
of all time.
Absolutely.
He's been relevant for decades and yet and still, like people are still not really aware of all of the things he's done.
He's dope because he's in groups, he plays the background, he's a solo artist.
Yeah.
Raphael is one of the greatest of all time, and he's a real musician.
Real musician.
Loves music.
Not about all of the hoopla or anything like that.
Creates timeless music.
What's the next body of energy you going to give us?
I'm about to just start putting music out.
I'm about to get back to a lot of Miguel, Miguel stuff.
You know, I've been, I think it's been fun to work with like
outside producers and people that, you know, to try things
and collaborations, but I'm about to just go like,
just do Miguel, Miguel stuff.
Back to just producing my music
and putting it out like this
as soon as I produce it.
No more waiting.
I see you don't want to hear that.
Oh, no, they're about it.
They're about it.
Look at this streaming money.
I got ViStorm,
you know what I'm saying?
Like, RCA is about to roll with it
because Mark's with me, you know?
Glad you.
ViStorm Entertainment, you know?
There you go.
Well, we thank you for joining us.
It's always a pleasure.
Always a pleasure.
We're about to put together
a great Miguel mix
for later today.
Yeah.
For me to work out to.
Yeah.
There could be a meditation mix
and then a workout mix.
I wonder what would be
the meditator stuff.
What would we go with?
More stuff from,
what would be more?
More Kaleidoscope Dream stuff
you think?
Ooh.
Meditator?
I think it's a mix.
I like wild ones.
You can put everything.
As quiet as it is kept,
like songs like N.W.A.,
they put me in a good vibe. Yeah. I'm seeing, you know what I'm saying. As quiet as it is kept, like songs like N.W.A., they put me in a good vibe.
You know what I'm saying?
As quiet as it's kept, I know the content is edgy,
but it just puts me in a good vibe.
Like, yeah, sit back, smoke something.
You know what I mean?
Exact cognac, you know what I mean?
Exactly.
Talk to me, no smoke.
How you know?
I went on vacation.
On vacation?
All right.
It's Miguel.
Yeah.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. It's Miguel. Yeah. 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.
Well, Angie Martinez did an hour and a half long interview with J. Cole.
And you know J. Cole doesn't do interviews
too frequently. And the
interview was filmed in Miami at
Salaam Remy's house. That was before J. Cole
performed at the Rolling Loud Festival.
And among the things he talked about was
Kanye West and what Kanye said
in support of Donald Trump. Here's what he
had to say about that. So you're not going to sit here
and do anything to sell your album. You're not going to tweet
anything to sell your album. There you go. There's a difference. Okay.
To me, that's the danger in what he's doing. I feel like he's really good at sampling language
that will resonate. And it just so happens this time he sampled the wrong. Ultimately,
the end goal is so I can be more powerful and viewed as boom, boom, boom. I'm not comfortable
unless I sit in that seat. That's cool when you're promoting some fashion shit that don't really concern me,
don't really jeopardize my life as a black man.
But when you come in, you empower.
Then it's like, bro, I can't rock with that.
I agree with everything he's saying, except for the fact,
I don't think Kanye was using this to promote his album.
Because this is a new language Kanye's speaking.
Kanye, first voice to support back in 2016.
But Kanye also hasn't been tweeting really before this.
So now that he has an album coming, he's on Twitter.
I don't think it was to promote his album.
I just think he's getting things off his chest and things off his mind.
I don't think it was, even though it's wrong, dead wrong.
Well, I mean, coincidentally enough, he does have an album coming out.
Yeah, but he first voiced his support for Trump in 2016 anyway to go visit Trump.
And I just think it's ignorant what he's doing because he's not aware of what Trump is doing to minorities in this country.
He just likes Trump for his style.
His reason for supporting Trump is ignorant as hell.
All right.
Now, in addition, he talks about the whole free thinking.
And here's what he had to say about Kanye's free thinking.
Somebody else sees this as like, that's right.
Love is the answer.
It's like, yeah, those are nice catchphrases.
And those catchphrases are true. Or free thinking. Yes. Catchphrase. Yes. Free thinking. But it's not
free thinking. It's enslaved thinking. It's thinking that's a slave to your own ego. You're
not free thinking when your ego is pulling the strings. But it's a nice catchphrase. It's a good
catchphrase. That's very easy to catch on to. Yeah. Like, make America great again. He's sounding good, but it's like, what's the intention here?
Is it for the people or is it for this one person?
To me, Trump is like a similar figure.
This is a dude who the only end goal is I got to be the man.
He's right about that.
And you can't be a free thinker if you are committed to one political party,
because if you are committed to a particular party,
then you have their ideas and their thoughts and you regurgitate a lot of their rhetoric.
So a lot of what people were saying after that, Kanye, was, oh, freethinking, or you guys are against freethinking.
It was kind of funny.
That's not freethinking if you're connected to one political party.
All right.
Now, in addition, what about this J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar collaboration album?
Well, J. Cole disappointed a lot of people with this.
We just did a few songs like a bunch
of ideas put it like that right it was nothing like you wouldn't call it an album you wouldn't
call it nothing like that so that's not that's not a real thing that's like a some fantasy thing
it's not it didn't come from nowhere it came from us yeah you know i mean but it's not like it's
something that's actively happening they shouldn't get their hopes up no not that not because it's
never gonna happen just because it's like it's not right now. And I don't like teasing.
It would have been easier back then.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Now it would be like, yo, you really got to block off a lot of time.
I think you should do it.
Do it for the people.
All right.
I'd love to hear that, though.
In addition, you know, J.
Cole has a whole lot of music in the vault and he does want to make sure that everybody gets to hear it.
Here's what they said about that.
And is there another album coming like right away? Because you kind of tease. I'm going to drop more music for gets to hear it. Here's what they said about that. And is there another album coming, like, right away?
Because you kind of teased that.
I'm going to drop more music for sure.
But it's not an album?
The album that I was talking about, you're talking about The Fall Off.
Yes.
That probably won't come for another year.
The False Prophets was supposed to be on The Fall Off.
Everybody Dies and False Prophets that I put out before For Your Eyes Only
were songs from The Fall Off.
So you just have songs that like sit up?
Oh yeah, I'm working on, I got Kill Edward album I'm working on.
And then I think I have an EP for the fall off.
I don't know how, and I got more music.
You know, I don't want to like look back 20 years
and have a big vault of music.
All right, in addition, Edward,
a lot of people found out from Kill Edward,
that is the name of J. Cole's stepfather.
Well, here's what he had to say about Kill Edward and his stepdad.
I feel like not kill him physically.
I actually don't have no problem with the dude.
Like, I would speak to him today.
I'm actually, you know, thinking about, like, man,
I need to go find this dude, like, and have a conversation with him.
Because I wonder if this has reached him.
Well, maybe now.
But when I say Kill Edward, what I'm talking about is, like,
the shit that I feel like I inherited from him.
The shit that I feel like I wanted to overcome and beat.
I feel like, oh, I got that from him.
There's some s*** in me that's like, I don't like it.
That's the s*** I want to kill off.
All right.
And last but not least, what I have for you right here
is him talking about understanding his stepfather and his backstory.
I understand now that, like, whatever was happening,
he was going through what he was going through,
which comes from whatever in his life that happened.
You know, I don't even know.
I know a little bit about his life, you know,
just from, like, clearly being around him all them years,
but I don't know the traumatic s*** that he went through as a kid
that, like, caused him to be X, Y, and Z.
There was parts of him I liked.
He was cool as s*** to me.
Like, you know, like, it was, like, good and bad.
Like, on one hand, like, I kind of looked up to him.
But on the other hand, he was putting his hands on us.
At the time, I was young.
And it was just like, this is just what it is.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
But make sure you go and check out that entire interview
with Angie Martinez and J. Cole.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, Charlemagne.
Yes, sir.
Who you giving that donk to?
Oh, man, we need a cracker-ass cracker white devil to come to the front of the congregation this morning.
We need Aaron Schlossberg to come to the front of the congregation.
We would like to have a word with him.
And always remember, if you are more mad at me for calling a racist a cracker-ass cracker than you are the actual racist,
then you're probably a cracker-ass cracker white devil
too, and you can kiss my black ass.
For After the Hour,
Donkey of the Day, let's talk about it.
This guy. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on in.
Charlemagne, say the gang
donkey of the day. Charlemagne.
You are a donkey.
It's time for
Donkey of the Day.
Donkey of the Day does not discriminate.
I might not have the song of the day, but I got the Donkey of the Day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the beat.
It's the Breakfast Club, bitches.
Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Well, Ed Sheeran, good morning.
Donkey of the Day for Thursday, May 17th, goes to a New York-based lawyer named Aaron Schlossberg.
His law firm is the law office of Aaron M. Schlossberg.
And all day yesterday, his law firm was flooded with one-star reviews on Yelp.
Because, ladies and gentlemen, in the world we live in,
life is about calling an ace an ace, a spade a spade, and a bigot a bigot.
Oh, the front of the New York Daily News today got it right.
It has a picture of Aaron Schlossberg in the headline.
New York's message to bigot who yelled at women for
yelled at women for speaking Spanish in
restaurant and in big bold black letters.
It says, what does that say, Drum? Give Drum the mic.
What does it say, Drum?
Hold that day idiot. Hold that day idiot.
Why you didn't ask me? Shut up.
See, that's why diversity matters. Okay.
Drop one of Clues bombs for yourself, Drum.
Alright. Okay. Say that
again for me. Joe to see what? Hold that day idiot. I ain't not you. Give a seat. Say that again for me. Jodeci what?
Jodate idiota. I ain't not you. Give a seat.
Jodate idiota. Jodate idiota.
Means screw you idiot. Right, Drum?
Yep. Okay.
You know how Drum knows that? Because he's Puerto Rican, right?
Okay, just found that out too. But more importantly,
alright, the New York Daily News called Aaron Schlossberg a bigot, alright?
And that is the kind of language that has to be used
when we are discussing people who blatantly are
being prejudiced, okay? Blatantly racist.
Why are we sugarcoating things when it comes
to bigots in this country? Why?
Why, if I call a blatantly racist
person a crack-ass cracker white devil,
why are you more mad at me than you are the person
who is actually being racist? I'm just picking up
what this racist is putting down, alright?
Giving them back the same energy they share
with the world. If it talks like a racist, oppresses like a racist,
and marginalizes like a racist,
then it's probably a crack-ass cracker white devil racist, okay?
Now, let's discuss what happened.
This all went down at the Fresh Kitchen in Midtown Manhattan, okay?
A Honduran immigrant, an employee of Fresh Kitchen named Oscar Villanueva.
Did I pronounce that right?
Villanueva, yes.
Drop on the clues, boss, for me, God damn it. No, you didn't do it right, though. He did. Well, how am I supposedva. Did I pronounce that right? Villanueva, yes. Drop on the clues box for me, guy.
No, you didn't do it right, though.
He did.
How am I supposed to do it, you fake Dominican?
How am I supposed to do it?
Nothing like that.
Okay.
All right.
Oscar says that he, as in Aaron, heard us speaking Spanish and started yelling,
it's no need for me to tell you what...
Yeah, he, as in Aaron, heard us speaking Spanish and started yelling.
Okay, yeah.
End quote.
There's no need for me to tell you what Aaron Schlossberg said.
I will let you hear it for yourself.
He's speaking Spanish to customers when they should be speaking.
I mean, sometimes they...
Every person I listen to, he's spoken, she's speaking it.
It's America.
I will be following up.
And my guess is they're not documenting.
So my next call is to ISTAP.
Each one of them is getting out of my country.
If they have the money to come here and live off of my money, I pay for their welfare.
I pay for their ability to be here.
Now, let me break it down for the people in the back who are probably acting like they didn't hear him so well,
but can hear me calling him a crack-ass cracker quite fine.
Okay, Aaron Schlossberg says your staff is speaking Spanish to customers when they should be speaking English.
Every person I listen to, he spoke it.
He spoke it.
She's speaking it.
This is America.
Then he says, my guess is they're not documented.
So my next call is the ice to have each one of them kicked out of my country.
If they have the balls to come here and live off my money, I pay for their welfare.
I pay for their ability to be here.
The least they can do is speak English.
Shut up.
Then the colonizer said, if you intend on running a place in midtown Manhattan, your staff should speak English, not Spanish.
And as a woman tried to engage Aaron, Aaron said just before he walked out, he turned around and said, honey, I'm calling ICE.
OK, now I know people love to say Donald Trump supporters aren't racist.
But for the record, according to the New York Daily News, Aaron Schlossberg is a registered Republican and 2016 donor of $500 to our Celebrity in Chiefs campaign.
Listen, I love it.
All right.
The reason I love it is because you can't hear what you don't reveal.
F all that covert racism.
I like my racism overt because when we know what it is, we
can avoid it. And not just avoid it, destroy
it. Well, maybe not destroy it because racists
will always have a place in our society because
sadly in America, it's millions of people
like Aaron who think
just like him, so he will always have support. But
that doesn't mean we can't expose him for the bigot he
is. And Aaron needs to be shamed.
And anyone who supports him after this
needs to be shamed because we have to start
treating racists in America the same way we
treat rapists, the same way we treat
pedophiles, okay? That's how we need
to treat these crack-ass cracker white devils
and all my good white people out there. I need
you all to start using your privilege to combat
prejudice. When you see one of your own being a
bigot like Aaron in public like this,
walk up to them and say, hey!
You're really being a crack-ass cracker right now. Okay? White people, when you see your own acting like bigots in public like this, walk up to them and say, hey, you're really being a crack-ass cracker right now.
Okay? White people, when you see your own
acting like bigots in public, are
private. Check them, and check them
hard. Okay? Draw a line in the sand
between you and them. It's simple.
Okay? And minorities, when they out here throwing
around these falsehoods in public, when
they say things like Aaron said, they're not
documented, and they're on welfare.
Scream out to them, the white devil is
a liar, okay?
And once again, if you are more mad at me for calling
a racist bigot a crack-ass cracker
white devil than you are the actual racist,
then you are part of
the problem, okay? I don't hate
white people. I hate racist bigots. It's a
difference. Please give Aaron Schlossberg
the biggest hee-haw.
Mm-hmm. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir. Friends, please give Aaron Schlossberg the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw. Hee-haw.
Mm-hmm. All right.
Mm-hmm.
Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir.
Mm-hmm.
Let me go on Yelp and leave a bad review.
When we come back, ask Yee.
800-585-1051.
If you got a question for Yee, you need relationship advice or any type of advice,
you can call Yee right now.
Again, the number's 800-585-1051.
Call her now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's time for Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
This is Nakia from Atlanta.
Hi, guys.
Hey, Nakia.
What's up, girl?
So just to have a back story, I have a nephew.
I named him.
I buy his clothes.
I'm the one that exposes him to things.
I potty trained him.
I was the first to take him to the Universal Circus to see the pit bulls and the Rottweilers.
There's no pit bulls and Rottweilers there.
You're a good auntie.
Definitely pit bulls and Rottweilers.
You're a good auntie.
I'm like mama, right? So his mother was adamant about him going to Head Start,
even though I forbade it.
Like, nobody that I know that went to Head Start ended up being a Rhodes Scholar.
So I'm like, I want him to go to a different school.
But she put her foot down.
He goes to Head Start.
Well, that is her son, but go ahead.
Man, don't nobody care about that.
So he didn't learn anything.
He's four years old.
He didn't know the basics.
So I'm like, I'm putting my foot down.
He's going to this school.
I'm paying for it.
So I've been paying for him to go to this school.
He loves it.
He's learning.
And now she won't let my brother get the car to take him to school now.
But she let him get the car to take him to Head Start
when he wasn't learning anything.
So I think you deal with
ratchetness a certain way. Like, I want to beat her
up. You can't beat people up.
Well, first of all,
you love your nephew, so you don't want to beat his mom up.
Why not?
But where is your brother
in all of this? Isn't he the dad?
Look, my brother sides with me.
He's with me.
Like, my brother is, my nephew is a daddy's baby.
Like, he throws stuff at his mom.
He's extremely disrespectful to her.
You know, like, he doesn't treat us like how he treats his mother.
And so I'm trying to get her to understand he's a young black boy.
You know, I went to school.
I have a master's degree.
Education is very important to me.
But most of my family has been institutionalized.
They've been, you know, even my brother has been to prison.
You know, I'm like the one that got away.
So I'm like not on my watch is my nephew going to be a statistic
and I'm willing to throw them hands
for her
but Nakia I will say
I don't know if throwing them hands
is going to make her change her mind
if anything it might make her
even more resistant
what should I do
because I mean this is
I think it sounds to me like
she doesn't like the fact
that you're interfering with her
raising her child as much as you are but she don't mind the like the fact that you're interfering with her raising her child as much as
you are but she don't mind the money and things that you're providing but she also is doesn't
like you undermining her as a parent and it seems like you need to figure out a way if you care
about this child for you and her to be on the same page and if that means that you have to work on
your relationship with her and how you address her about what she needs to do with her son because
it's one thing if you have suggestions and you're trying to help and it's another thing
if you're telling her what she needs to do because sometimes people want to feel like they're making
the decision also and so they have to feel like they're involved in that decision making process
so if that means you present some research and y'all go together to look at the schools and do
those things so she feel felt like, okay,
yeah, this is what I want to do. Did she not hear me
say that the girl is wretched?
She does not understand fundamentally
how important this
is. It's not about
me winning or... But that's
probably how she's looking. It seems like that's how
she's looking at it. Clearly.
Right. I don't know no way to make her
see it because she's thinking, oh, I
turned out fine.
Are you thinking, no, you didn't.
Don't let your nephew grow to be a
raffle boy. This also seems like something that
your brother should be dealing with.
But he, like, now,
because he called me this morning and he's, like,
upset because they fought this morning
about the car. And I had to
call my mom to go pick up my nephew
across town so that he
can go to school. But my mom not gonna do
that every morning. Right.
Yeah, it seems like he's gotta put his
foot down and figure out how he can deal with her
because that's his child.
He gotta step up to the plate. She's not white
is she? No, she's
very black.
Very black. Very black.
Grabbing at the L, like, all that.
She's got two opens that, you know.
This is America black.
It's just hard because that's their child,
and your brother should be the one that's really making these things happen.
Like, why is this on you?
He's trying, but it's like he don't know how.
I mean, he's just as wretched as her.
Like, he results the violence too.
Like, this is all we know.
You are somehow, someway going to have to try to make her feel like
she's involved in the decision-making process,
even though you said she's wretched and all of that. If you're doing this for the good of the child, you got to sometimes put your
ego, pride, whatever to the side and just, you know, take a deep breath and just go ahead and
go in there and be like, OK, let me just make her feel like she's smart, even though you don't feel
like she is and make her feel like, OK, as a mom, I know this is your decision,
but I just did some research to help you out and let me know what you think about this
and, you know, just try to figure it out.
I'm going to try that first and I'm going to see how that goes. But if she don't start
getting on the bandwagon, I'm going to drag her out of the house.
Oh my goodness.
All right. Let's try to avoid that. We don't want her son to see that happen.
Alright. Thank you, Yee.
You're welcome, Nikita. Good luck, mama.
Nothing wrong with a little dragon, I'm going to be honest
with you, man. Especially when it comes to the future
of a young child. For real, man.
That put you in jail. So what? I'll go to jail
to make sure that this kid got a good future.

Ask Yee. It's the Breakfast Club.
Come on.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela
Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast
Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this? This is
Acacia. Hey, Acacia.
What's your question for Yee? Okay, so
I've been, I've talked to multiple people
who have been in relationships with
their partners for like five plus years.
And as soon as they get married,
like their relationships go completely
down the drain. So I know you and
Charlamagne are married. I don't know how long you guys
dated you guys, y'all's wife. Forever.
I've been with my wife 20
years, boo. Oh my
gosh, that's beautiful. That's what I'm saying. I just wanted
to know like y'all's opinion.
I'm currently engaged and I think my boy, I don't know what fear he has like i don't know why people's
relationships you know crumble after they get married like do y'all have any opinions well
that's well that's not always true so i don't think you can look at anybody's relationships
and compare it to what yours is but But I will say there's people that date
somebody for 10 years and get married and it doesn't work out. There's people, they get married
after knowing somebody for a month and it doesn't matter. It's just really how you work on your
relationship. A marriage and a relationship is work. So it's never always smooth. So you just
have to make sure that you guys are always communicating with each other and knowing that
there's going to be some rough patches, but you're dedicated to working it out together.
Yes, ma'am.
I think sometimes you look at what other people are doing in their relationship
and compare that to what is going on in yours, and you can't do that.
Yeah, because it's crazy how y'all can be together for six, seven years,
and then as soon as y'all get married, it's like, I want a divorce.
It's just weird.
I was just wondering how that happens, but that's completely true.
Like, you can't look at everybody's relationship, so.
I'm sure you also know people that have stayed together.
Yes, I do.
Right, so stop focusing on the negative,
and don't even just block everybody else out,
because no matter what happens with you,
that has nothing to do with what anybody else has going on.
And I think that's sometimes what our issue is.
You know, we let other people's negativity influence us, and it's not a good thing to do.
Yes.
Thank y'all so much.
Just remember, communication.
Everything is communication.
I've been with my wife 24 years.
We've been married 17 last Sunday, and everything is communication.
It's going to be good.
It's going to be bad.
But as long as y'all sit down and talk it through and be honest,
y'all always get to a great outcome.
Never go to sleep upset a man.
That's the key.
And when he cheats, forgive him.
Shut up.
That's very important.
And Acacia, congratulations to you on your upcoming wedding.
Thank you, ma'am.
Congrats to y'all, too.
Thank y'all so much.
Remember, communication, mama.
And when he cheats, forgive him. That's very important. And then to do a cheat. We've actually gone'all, too. Thank y'all so much. Remember, communication, mama. And when he cheats, forgive him.
That's very important.
And then to do a cheat.
We've actually gone through that, yeah.
So we're good on the forgiving part.
We're good.
Okay, you just remember that.
All right.
I'm going to thank you, Charlamagne.
Good luck, mama.
I don't know what she said.
I just hope she said, I'm going to forgive him, Charlamagne.
That's what she said, right?
That's what I heard.
I don't know what she said.
They're going to communicate.
All right.
ASCII, 805-85-1051.
We got rumors on the way, Yee?
Yes, and speaking of relationships,
we have a big congratulations to give out
to one of our favorite people on social media.
All right, we'll get into that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
My body is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Hi, good morning. Let's get
to the rumors. Let's talk Whitney Houston.
It's time.
She's spilling the tea.
This is the rumor report
with Angela Yee on The Breakfast
Club.
There's a new documentary about Whitney Houston
that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival
and it premiered Wednesday night
and it is going to be released on July 7th.
And among the things that were revealed
in this new documentary,
which, by the way, was done in conjunction
with the cooperation of Whitney Houston's family,
is the fact that Whitney Houston was molested
by Dee Dee Warwick at a very young age.
Who is Dee Dee?
Dee Dee is Dionne Warwick's sister.
Okay, so what happened was,
according to Whitney Houston's assistant, Mary Jones,
she revealed that the singer told her that Warwick had molested her,
and that is what actually caused Whitney to question her own sexuality
and perpetuated her drug problems later in life.
Now, she said, I think she was ashamed,
which is why she never told her mother.
She said if Sissy had known, she would have done something about it because Sissy loves her children.
According to Whitney Houston's half brother, he also revealed in the film that he was molested by a female family member between the ages of seven and nine.
So he said there was something very disturbed about her because she was never comfortable in her own skin.
She seemed kind of asexual in a strange way.
She was a beautiful woman, but she was never particularly sexy.
I've seen and done some filming with people who have suffered childhood sexual abuse,
and there was just something about her manner that was reminiscent to me of that sort of shrinking.
I usually don't like to hear stories about dead people because they're not here to defend the stories,
but I guess that's a good conversation because that is something that happens to kids a lot when they're younger but it never comes out
especially about family members I know I used to get touched on when I was eight and it just goes
to show you that you never know how things like this will affect people later in life some people
say oh well that happened so long ago or why did this person wait so long to come out or should we
still punish people from something that happened 30 years ago?
But this can affect people for life.
Because I still don't know how it affected me when my cousin's ex-wife was touching on
me.
I do know that the reason I made her stop was because I couldn't stand the smell of
her jerry curl.
And like, I don't like jerry curls to this day.
Like, it was very painful watching Scrape Out of Compton.
All right.
Now, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have welcomed another baby.
Their baby is here.
She tweeted out, somebody's here.
So congratulations.
Congrats to them.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend.
That's what y'all kept talking about all morning.
I'm going to close my mouth to Chrissy Teigen.
What do you mean?
I thought y'all were talking about somebody y'all actually knew.
Because I kept hearing in the studio, Chrissy had her baby.
Chrissy had her baby.
I was like, well, who is Chrissy?
Who said that?
I heard that a couple times this morning.
I did.
I said it.
I don't know.
I feel like I know Chrissy.
I thought that was one of your personal friends.
She's very funny on social media.
I've actually never met her, but it's just exciting.
Didn't Chrissy come and pay one time?
No.
Did she?
I don't know.
I've worked with Chrissy before.
I was with Charlamagne when we, I don't know.
She did come and pay one time.
Yeah, she was, maybe you wasn't here, yeah.
Yeah, I probably wasn't here, but congratulations to Chrissy and John Legend.
All right. Well, I hate to do this story But congratulations to Chrissy and John Legend. All right.
Well, I hate to do this story right after that,
but Ludacris's wife, Eudoxie, actually had a miscarriage.
She posted it on Instagram.
She said, this year didn't necessarily start off right for us.
I had a miscarriage and needed to have surgery.
It was very easy to complain and self-pity,
but I refused to let the enemy win.
I stayed faithful and prayed up.
I spent hours focusing on the many ways the
Lord has blessed me. So she said
she wants to share this with you to
remind you to live in gratitude. When the enemy
tries to knock you down, get even closer to your
faith. Life will not always go as
planned and keeping a positive and grateful attitude
will only bring more and bigger
blessings. What do you say when somebody has a miscarriage?
Do you say sorry for your loss?
Just sorry. You can just say I'm sorry to hear that.
Sorry to hear that.
There you go.
Yeah, if you need anything, please let me know.
I mean, it's a very emotional time.
And that's a very emotional time for women because they feel like maybe it's them.
It was their body.
It's very difficult.
Also, for women, their body goes through a lot of that time.
And then they are anticipating having a baby.
Sometimes they've told people.
And it's just, you can imagine what that would feel like.
All right, 50 Cent
is facing legal action
and that is because
he also posted that picture
of Tierra Marie,
the very explicit image
that somebody hacked
into her account
and posted of her
performing a sexual act.
And so now,
according to attorney Lisa Bloom
and her press release,
she said,
Love and Hip Hop Hollywood star
Tierra Marie
is accusing her
ex-boyfriend of using her password to get
access to her Instagram account and post
those graphic images and that 50 is
a close friend of her
ex and immediately reposted the images to
his 18 million followers and
used the tagline, Get the Strap.
So that's an issue
and now he's involved in this lawsuit as well.
First of all, I don't think 50 should
Have anything to do with that
Because the image
Was already out there
Image was out there
All he did was
Repurpose it I guess
Absolutely
And get the strap
Could be porno
You know what I'm saying
He could have thought
It was a porno
He could have said
I didn't know this was
Tia Marie
This was a porno star
So I said get the strap
Well he puts
Get the strap on
Everything that he posts
I think he has
He said put the strap on
On what
Get the strap
I said get the strap
I didn't say put the strap
I said get the strap
He said he puts the strap on
You know what I'm not messing with you Forget it You play too much didn't say put the strap. You said he put the strap on. You know what?
I'm not a record shooter.
Forget it.
You play too much.

Ever dreamt about starting your own?

55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh, my God.

Bullets.
