The Breakfast Club. or wherever you get your podcasts. You guys are the coveted morning show, which I earned it. Impact in the culture. They wake up in the morning and they want to hear that breakfast call. The world's most dangerous morning show. We in the mother... Good morning, USA! Yes, it's Thursday. Might as well say it's officially the weekend. Okay. Why, do we have off tomorrow? No, we don't have off tomorrow, but you know, I like to scratch the weekend out, so I like to start it with Thursday.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Well, I thought I was going to go home and get some rest yesterday. Somehow I managed to be out all day and night. After you guys left the studio yesterday, I was here. I actually had to film a scene for this movie called Canal Street. Mm-hmm. And then after that, I saw Nori was up here with his crew. So then he was like, what are you doing? I said, I'm about to get something
Starting point is 00:04:50 to eat. So then Nori's like, alright, we rolling. And then I think for the rest of the night, we went to eat at Miss Lily's. Then we went to Joulon Club. Okay. Met up with Kaiser. Joulon. Yes, Joulon. And I ended up being out till like, I don't know what time, maybe like 11 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:05:06 Wow. I don't know how that happens. Every time I intend to go home, it never works out the way I intended. Okay. I definitely didn't have an event-filled day like that yesterday. I went to the gym, that's all, and then went home. Yeah, I need some of that. I didn't have an event-filled day like that.
Starting point is 00:05:24 I didn't do nothing. Me and my wife just chilled. We caught up on some TV. I had to do Dr. K's, which I do each and every Wednesday in New York. And I just relaxed. I just chilled. That's exactly what I did. And I got a great kick out of the YouTube comments yesterday, like I always do.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Because, you know, everybody had an opinion on the Bernice Burgos interview. Yes. Which always trips me out because it seems like the things that people claim that they don't like, they watch the most. It's always like that. It's not even just with radio or radio interviews. It's like that with television. You don't like love and hip hop. You don't like Real Housewives of Atlanta. You don't like basketball wives, but you
Starting point is 00:05:55 can't keep your eyes off it. So it was just weird watching people say how much they hated the interview. But then it was like the number three trending thing on YouTube yesterday. And trending all day on Twitter as well. A lot of people were hitting me up about that interview too. Some of my friends actually, a lot of people called me about that interview. Called you?
Starting point is 00:06:11 Why? Well, they were upset because they felt like Bernice was trying to come for me. And they were like, you've never said anything bad about Bernice ever. And you've always been cool with her. So I don't understand what she heard or how that happened. Because clearly I didn't say what she thought I said. Did y'all talk after or no?
Starting point is 00:06:26 No, I haven't spoken to her yet. But we spoke after the interview. We've never had any issues. So well, thank you to the 600,000 plus people who watched it on YouTube yesterday. Drop on the clues bombs for y'all. We appreciate you hate watching. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Front page news.
Starting point is 00:06:41 What are we talking about? We are, of course, going to talk about Donald Trump reinstating the U.S. military ban on transgender people. I don't understand that one either. Me neither. I thought about that yesterday. We'll talk about it when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Good morning. It's Bruno Mars. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. And let's start off with your president, Donald Trump. Yes, Donald Trump started putting out these tweets.
Starting point is 00:07:10 After consultation with my generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you. This is his tweet. How crazy. Well, I mean, this is the thing. I don't think your identity has anything to do with whether or not you can defend this country.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I don't think what you identify as keeps you from doing your job in the military. But I will say this. I have learned that when our celebrity in chief sends out tweets like that, he's trying to distract us from something else. And that something else is probably Russiagate. So let's not let anything distract us from the fact that he probably has had
Starting point is 00:07:53 some type of collusion with Russia or somebody in the administration has. And the heat is coming down on him pretty tough. Now, we were having a whole discussion about this yesterday because what are these tremendous medical costs? So I was like, let me do some research and see. This is really costing
Starting point is 00:08:06 a lot, alright, to have transgender people in the military. And it turns out it's a very minimal cost because there are so few. There's between, they said, anywhere between 1,320 and 6,630 people. Now the cost he's talking about
Starting point is 00:08:22 is the hormones that they would have to take and they said that that cost is basically nothing. It's a little drop in the pot. I don't understand how these are tremendous costs. Discretion from Russiagate. Now, let's talk about something sad that happened. When I seen this, my heart
Starting point is 00:08:38 broke because I love riding roller coasters. What happened at the Ohio State Fair? Well, there were some people riding on the fireball. That is the ride. It's at least six rows of seats, and it spins around as the whole thing moves kind of like a pendulum back and forth. One person was actually killed when that ride malfunctioned during opening day at the Ohio State Fair. This was in Columbus, Ohio.
Starting point is 00:09:01 And, yeah, terrible situation. The video footage I saw was... Yeah, I saw it. Charlamagne, you seen the video? I absolutely did not because I saw the headline. You don't want to see it. No, I know.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I mean, it looks like the ride just struck it in full air, just came apart. I'm not one of those guys that clicks on the video once I see a headline like that. I'm cool. I don't need to see it.
Starting point is 00:09:20 You know what? I seen it by being nosy. I went to Bernice's Burgos page to see if they was killing her on Instagram. Oh, that's why you went there, bitch? Yep. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:26 And she had the video there. She was like, my daughter was about to get on this ride and decided not to. Thank God she didn't. So I clicked it, and then that's how I seen it. Wait, her daughter was in Columbus, Ohio and was about to get on that ride? That's what she put. That's crazy. That's what she put.
Starting point is 00:09:38 So you went on Bernice's Burgos page just to read the comments? You one of them guys that used to read Playboy just for the articles, huh? Yes. Okay. Got you. Got you. All right. Okay. All right. Got you. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:46 All right. And that's front page news. Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Or if you feel blessed, 800-585-1051. Phone lines are wide open. Hit us up right now.
Starting point is 00:10:01 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? It's Wade from
Starting point is 00:10:19 Sunnyside. What's up, bro? You mad? You upset? You need to want you an event? I'm mad, man, because somebody ruined the show. Power for me. How? What you mean? What you mean? Apparently, an older person from my hometown works on this show, and he started running
Starting point is 00:10:35 his mouth. You don't call the people running yours. Okay? We don't want you to ruin us either. I didn't mean to hang up on you, but I didn't know what you was going to say next. Yeah, I don't want to hear nothing. Relax. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:10:46 Yo, this is Marcus, man. How's everybody doing? Marcus. Did I do it right? Marcus. I get it. Anyway. What was that? That's from Boomerang. Oh. What's up, bro? I don't know what was going on. Why are you mad at me? That didn't even sound right. I'm mad at myself because I was planning
Starting point is 00:11:02 on, you know what I'm saying, possibly buying a new car this weekend. And I was like, you know what? I know my credit ain't the best, but let me check it out that way I could possibly have a Stratus for this weekend. So I go and check it out and my credit is shot. What's your credit? Shot, shot. Just tell us
Starting point is 00:11:18 what it is. I'm talking about like a 440. So basically you two points higher than Jay-Z's 444 album, which is ironic because he told y'all to get your credit up on 444. Exactly. You know what I'm saying? It's shot to the point like Denzel Washington at the end
Starting point is 00:11:33 of training days, like shot. What's on your report that's so bad? It's just student loans. Student loans and I'm pretty frugal with my money in terms of like not having outstanding paying your bills and stuff like that no not even that it's just more so I'm just trying to like I grew up poor so I don't want to spend my money if I don't necessarily have to but I'm at the point now
Starting point is 00:11:55 well exactly but I'm at the age now I'm 25 so I'm at the age now where things are becoming more important like buying a car buying a house and set myself up that going to be able to buy no house with that type of credit score? No, no. I got to get it together. So that's what this is all about. I'm blessed. I'm blessed as well because I'm in a position now where I have a good job to where I can get myself in order. You got to look at it like your credit score right now has a curable STD.
Starting point is 00:12:19 All right? It's not herpes. It's not HIV, meaning that, you know, there's no cure for it. You can cure this, sir. You got chlamydia. Your credit card got chlamydia. This is syphilis or chlamydia right here. This is doable. You can get this done. You can clean this one up, sir.
Starting point is 00:12:33 It's a bright side damn thing, brother. That's what I'm talking about right now. Right, let's get it fixed. And if you need help, I got a person for you. She works very, very well. Okay. Sounds good. I appreciate that. Jeannie Kelly. Jeannie Kelly is her name. She will help you out. Believe me. Google good. I appreciate that. Jeannie Kelly is her name. She will help you out. Believe me. Google is your friend, sir.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Jeannie Kelly. How do you spell Jeannie? G-E-A. Oh, I'm sorry. J-E-A-N-N-E Kelly. K-E-L-L-Y. Google's your friend, bro. Go look her up right now.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Definitely. That's J-E-A-N-N-E K-E-L-L-Y. She will help you. You ain't got to come in there. She can help you over the phone. She has good money. Go get that chlamydia you call a credit score cured. That's what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:13:10 I'm talking about you when I grow up. Let's do it. Yes, sir. All right, bro. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Or if you feel blessed, call us now.
Starting point is 00:13:19 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Get it. Pick up the mother, mother phone and dial. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. Say it with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:13:34 So you better have the same energy. Amber. What's up? What's up? All right. Now, you happy that Trump made that decision, huh? Here's the thing, though. Yeah. And, like, I'm just saying, huh? Here's the thing, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 And like, I'm just saying, I feel like you cannot put transgenders in the same category with gays. That's why I hate the TDD, whatever, community thing. Because my transgenders and gays are two completely different things. My sister's gay. My best friend, he's gay. He ain't walking around flicking with space on. I'm just saying, transgender people, you have no place in the military. You don't know what you want to be. God made you one way.
Starting point is 00:14:11 You say, you know, he's abomination because he made you the wrong way or whatever. I feel like that wasn't a racist move. I felt like that was a Christian move. You shouldn't be in the military. Nobody said it was racist because it has nothing to do with race. But I do commend anybody who will put on that uniform and risk their life for the country. Regardless of what they identify with. I don't understand what your identity has to do with whether or not you can do your job in the military.
Starting point is 00:14:37 I don't see how it keeps you from doing your job. Me neither. Because you already confused about your sex. So why would I trust you with a gun and say go defend my country? What? That don't make any sense, baby. You already confused about what you want to put on. I'm just saying, like, you a guy, you weren't like Lil Scrappy said, you
Starting point is 00:14:53 a man with a dress and a wig on. Well, the truth of the matter is when you're in the military, you know, you don't have to decide what you got to put on. You got to put on that uniform that they give you. Okay? So it don't even matter at that point. Have you ever been in the military, man? My family. I have a long list of military.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Have you? My grandfather, my father. Have I? Hell no, I was in the military. Okay, so shout out to everybody who was brave enough to join the military. Thank you for calling, though. Come on, G, what's up? What's up?
Starting point is 00:15:21 We ain't heard from you in a while. You ain't been consistent, man. You ain't a consistent sucker like you used to be. Oh, man, I've been working real hard, man. But I'm calling today because I feel blessed. Oh, yeah, Angela, you've been looking real good lately, baby. I don't know what it is. What you doing?
Starting point is 00:15:35 All right. But I feel so blessed because every time I see a picture of DJ Envy and Charlamagne, I just feel blessed knowing that I still have a great hairline because you guys' hair is just awful. It's awful. You know what? This is the first time you ever caught up here, and you're absolutely correct, sir.
Starting point is 00:15:52 But you know what? He did the hair joke before. You got to do something about it. You need some new material. But he's absolutely correct with this one, sir. You win this morning. I do have hair. I don't have no hair.
Starting point is 00:16:01 I keep a baldie on purpose because when I don't have a baldie, I look like Robocop when he takes his mask off. All right. Get it off your chest. My hairline starts in the middle of my head. 800-585-1051. Or you can tell us why you're blessed. Now, Eve, we got rumors on the way?
Starting point is 00:16:14 Yes. Find out who just won a $10 million judgment all because of their catalog. All right. We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:16:28 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, Quincy Jones just got a 9.44 million judgment against Michael Jackson's estate.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And that is for the songs that he actually produced for unpaid royalties on Michael Jackson's three hit albums. You're damn right. Drop on the clues bombs for Quincy Jones. I can't believe that Quincy Jones, the architect of Thriller and Off the Wall, had to go to court to get his money. He had asked for $30 million and he didn't get quite that much. But he said accountants for the defendants actually just weren't paying him the money he was supposed to get his money. He had asked for $30 million and he didn't get quite that much, but he said accountants for the defendants actually just weren't paying him
Starting point is 00:17:07 the money he was supposed to get. He deserved every dime. There is no Michael Jackson without Quincy Jones. Now, Michael Jackson's estate is saying that judgment is too much and it's unfair to Michael Jackson's heir. So they are trying to say
Starting point is 00:17:20 that is not proper, not correct. You wouldn't have all of that if it wasn't for Quincy Jones. Quincy Jones laid that foundation with Off the Wall and Thriller. What are you talking about? We don't know what the splits were, so whatever the splits were, that's how they decide how much money is given. So I'm sure that's the right amount.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Right. $10 million doesn't even sound crazy. That's mechanical. Quincy Jones? We don't know what he got paid, what the time period is. So we don't know the facts, facts. Well, this is since Michael Jackson has passed away.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I think everything was fine up until then and then after that it's his estate that's supposed to be paying and they haven't been. How long has he been paying? They want to brush
Starting point is 00:17:52 Quincy to the side. He's been dead, what, 10 years? 11 years, something like that? I mean, so that's what I'm saying. It doesn't feel like a crazy amount of money for that period of time.
Starting point is 00:18:01 All right, Justin Bieber just ran over a photographer. He had an accident. He was leaving a church service in Beverly Hills. They actually got it all on camera. for that period of time. All right, Justin Bieber just ran over a photographer. He had an accident. He was leaving a church service in Beverly Hills. They actually got it all on camera. He did not flee the scene, though he did stay there.
Starting point is 00:18:11 He stopped as soon as the photographers pointed out what had happened. He stayed right there. He's not being charged with anything. An unfortunate accident for Justin Bieber. That's right. He told you yesterday he just canceled the remaining dates
Starting point is 00:18:22 of his tour, the 14 dates that he had remaining. They're saying that he had some type of spiritual awakening. You're damn right. He just leaving church and he will not let the devil stand in his way. Enough of nothing. You got to get out of his way. I see how paparazzi does it.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Devil, get out of my way. You know, sometimes the celebrities are trying to leave y'all in front of the car taking pictures. Move out the way. I just left church. I want Satan to get behind thee. Okay? Now, if you ever vote, you can see the video footage, and there are a lot of photographers standing in the street,
Starting point is 00:18:48 a lot of paparazzi. Everybody's taking pictures. I mean, we don't really know how hurt the guy is. Well, he's gonna be okay. He's had some injuries to his lower body, nothing life-threatening. He's fine. Yeah, because as soon as he gets hit by Justin Bieber, he's gonna fall out. You're gonna have to call an ambulance. There's gonna be a whole lot of things going on. And I know they're saying that Bieber accidentally ran him over,
Starting point is 00:19:03 but no, God wanted that to happen. Okay. All right, Julio Jones from the Atlanta Falcons. He's the wide receiver. Actually hired a whole entire dive team. Do you know why? Yes. He lost his earring while he was jet skiing.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Check it out. A dive team dips below the surface of Lake Lanier on a rescue mission. They're not searching for someone, but something. I'm getting ready to dive for a diamond earring. That earring was worth a lot, huh? Yeah, it was worth a little bit. That's Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones. The earring belongs to him.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Julio Jones, the superstar for the Atlanta Falcons, apparently lost his diamond earring while jet skiing. He went off. When he came back up, the earring was gone. And we're told it's worth $100,000. Now, how much does it cost to hire a whole entire dive team? I mean, each diver usually costs between two and three grand. I had to hire a diver to fix my pool one time. So if you do, if it's two grand to three grand a diver. But those earrings, I did the same. I lost my earring when I used to work at Sirius, and I made
Starting point is 00:20:08 them go on the cameras, and somebody seen the earring, thought it was fake, threw it in the garbage, and they were able to follow that garbage bag all the way down to the basement and pull it out and get my earring out of that garbage. Well, I don't know if he's going to find his earring in the lake. I know one thing. People was giving Julio Jones flack and telling
Starting point is 00:20:23 me to give Julio Jones donkey of the day. Listen, people, you have to stop rationalizing things based off your financial status. If Julio Jones got the money to hire a dive team to look for his
Starting point is 00:20:33 $100,000 earring... How much would a dive as they said? Let him do his thing. I don't know how much it costs. How many dives as they said? It's just a team. It's a dive team.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Sam was three. He said he hired a full dive team. He paid nine grand to try to recover something that's worth a hundred. Sounds right to me. Stop rationalizing things based off your financial status. But if they don't find it, now you're at $109,000.
Starting point is 00:20:53 It is what it is. Now, would you insure a $100,000 earring? Yes, absolutely. So if something like that happens, you would get the insurance money, right? That's if he insured it. Right. We don't know how long he had it. He might have just got it.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Maybe he didn't get a chance to, you know, insure it. The more important thing is, why is Julio Jones playing in the water in his good stuff? All right? It's just like, you don't play basketball in your good sneakers. You don't, you know, go to work in your good clothes. Why is he playing in the lake with his good earrings on? It probably was just a stud that never comes out. Never comes out, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:23 All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. I ain't got that kind of money, so I don't know about those type of things. All right, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. What are we talking about? Oh, we're going to talk about Donald Trump and his tweets that he put out about the military and saying that transgender should no longer be allowed to serve in the military. Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Let's talk Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yes, Donald Trump tweeted out, after consultation with my generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military. Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. So basically what he's saying is
Starting point is 00:22:16 that he doesn't want transgender individuals to serve in the military. Now, retired Navy SEAL Kristen Beck has a lot to say about that. Check it out. You know, I mean, this just does not make any sense, especially when you start blaming this on, like, taxpayer money, fiscal responsibility. It's a leadership problem. It's not a money problem. It's a disruption to the force. They said it in the 1950s about African-Americans. We're happy just being ourselves and having the freedom to say, hi, I'm transgender. I want the freedom and the individual liberty to be able to have my own peace of mind that I'm not going to get witch hunted. Let me just say the word transgender
Starting point is 00:22:48 and not be in fear of my life. The issue is going to go deeper and deeper and it's a slippery slope. Distract, distract, distract. Look, I don't think your identity has anything to do with whether or not you can defend this country. I don't think what you identify as keeps you from doing your job in the military. Now, if you want to know more about retired Navy SEAL
Starting point is 00:23:03 Kristen Beck, who's a transgender woman, you can see the documentary Lady Valor, and that showed how she served with great honor in the military. In addition, Montel has also weighed in on this, and here's what he said. Montel who? Montel Williams. Oh. He's saying that we're doing this because we want to save on the medical expense? Excuse me.
Starting point is 00:23:23 I don't know if people know this, that the U.S. military spends, and I'm not knocking this, they spend $98 million to make sure soldiers get an erection. They will spend the money on ED drugs. And I'm not saying that we don't have a right to ED drugs. But an ED drug is really a choice. Living inside of a body? It's not yours. This administration is not the leadership for a third of the country.
Starting point is 00:23:47 It's the leadership for the United States of America. I would love to try this erectile dysfunction medicine that costs $98 million. I bet you you get a super boner. It's basically like Viagra. You sure? It's probably like Viagra. I bet you you get a super boner. I bet you that boner lasts for a few hours.
Starting point is 00:24:02 That's a good night. All right, well, and basically what he's trying to say is the cost is so low for the medication, the hormones that transgender individuals would need. It's nothing in comparison to buying Viagra for everybody. Our celebrity in chief, Donald Trump, sends out tweets like this. He's trying to distract us from something else. And that something else is probably Russiagate. The heat is on.
Starting point is 00:24:23 Evidence is mounting that he may have had some type of collusion with Russia. So Trump does what he does best, distract, distract, distract. And this also might be laying down the groundwork for more things to happen down the line, not just in the military, but taking away more rights. Abortions, things like that. He's been doing that. He's doing more, more, more. Why are we acting like this dude is not a textbook white supremacist?
Starting point is 00:24:45 Okay? This is white male authority at its finest right here. Whether it's the Muslim ban, whether it's telling transgenders they can't be in the military. This is what he does. Definitely. Now let's talk about the Ohio State Fair. This was so disgusting. Such a tragedy.
Starting point is 00:24:59 Yeah, such a sad story. A ride actually malfunctioned. That ride was the fireball. It's like a pendulum. The whole thing moves. And one person was actually killed when that ride did malfunction. The crazy part about it is when I go to those state fairs,
Starting point is 00:25:12 I never allow my kids on the roller coasters. You know, they always seem rinkety-dinkety-dink. You know, they just always seem clickety-clack. They always scare me, but definitely condolences to anybody that lost a ride. I hate rides. I know that. I used to like rides when I was a kid, but as I got older, I realized how scary the world is.
Starting point is 00:25:29 I already got anxiety. I'm not going to pay anybody to give me more anxiety and more fear. Now, my daughter loves that kind of stuff. So you got to go on with her. Yes, when I went to Universal Studios maybe like a year or two ago, she was seven at the time. Fearless. Hands up. I ain't got no choice but to go on there and keep my eyes closed.
Starting point is 00:25:45 And you're holding on to that ball like a little girl. Oh, Lord have mercy. But now I can show her stuff like this in CC. That's why we don't need to be on these rides.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Emmy and I go on any type of rides because we always do those Six Flags trips. Right. But you sit in the front car and I usually sit in the middle.
Starting point is 00:25:57 I do. I love to sit in the front car. I was just recently at Luna Park, Coney Island. Y'all ain't faced enough fear in life. I was on Cyclone. I'm shocked at you, Envy.
Starting point is 00:26:03 You done been shot at, had guns pulled on you. I don't get it because I got bad anxiety because of fear in life. I was on Cyclone. I'm shocked at you, Envy. You done been shot at, had guns pulled on you. I don't get it, because I got bad anxiety from stuff like that. I don't need to be on no damn rides. I know, I love rides. The only ones I don't like are the ones that spin around and around because I get nauseous. Oh my goodness. Y'all need to face more adversity. You know, where you're like up against
Starting point is 00:26:18 the wall, defying gravity. I know exactly what you're talking about. I can't do that ride. Y'all ain't never had to collect an unemployment check. Y'all ain't never had to stand in, forget standing in line at you talk. Y'all ain't never had to collect an unemployment check. Y'all ain't never had to stand in, forget standing in line at a ride. Y'all ain't never had to stand in line at an unemployment office after being on TV in Wendy Williams' show. All right? Y'all need to face more adversity.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Humbling experience. You're damn right. Y'all need to face more adversity. That's why y'all like paying for them scary movies and them scary rides. I had to get unemployment before, but I thought you just could go online and do it. I ain't paying nobody to scare me. I never had to go stand in a line. That's the moral of the story.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Yours, his was a lot older than yours. Oh, psych. All right. I'm not paying nobody to scare me. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now, when we come back, we got to talk the biggest boss, Ross. Now, when he was here the other day, this is what he said.
Starting point is 00:27:00 What about a female rapper? I always felt like, I know you dibbled and dabbled with different artists, other female rappers, but. You know, I never did it because I always thought, like, I would end up f***ing the female rapper. F***ing the business up here. I'm so focused on my business. I gotta be honest with you. You know, she looks good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots.
Starting point is 00:27:23 I gotta f***. People are very upset about that comment. They're very upset on her photo shoots. I got to f***. All right. People are very upset about that comment. They're very upset that I laughed. I can't wait to discuss this. Let's talk about it. But by the way, there's a whole entire interview where he actually, but I got that for you later.
Starting point is 00:27:34 All right. So we're asking, what do you think? What do you think about what he said? Phone lines are wide open. 800-585-1051. Do we give opinions now or are we going to wait until we come back? When we come back. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:44 All right. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne N'Ga, we are the Breakfast Club. Now, earlier in the week Ross was on the Breakfast Club and people, a lot of people were pissed off with what he said and this is what he said. What about a female
Starting point is 00:27:59 rapper? I always felt like, I know you dibbled and dabbled with different artists that, other female rappers, but. You know, I never did it because I always thought like I I know you dibbled and dabbled with different artists that, other female rappers, but. You know, I never did it because I always thought like I would end up f***ing the female rapper. F***ing the business up here. I'm so focused on my business.
Starting point is 00:28:16 I gotta be honest with you. You know, she looks good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta f***. So we're asking 800-585-1051 what do you think? People are upset too because I laughed. The reason I laughed is because Ross was very honest
Starting point is 00:28:32 about something guys usually aren't honest about. Not only was he honest, he's acknowledging a weakness he has. He specifically said he wouldn't sign a female artist because he doesn't trust himself not to try anything with a woman that he employs. He said verbatim that would hurt business. If he would have said the only way a woman can sign
Starting point is 00:28:48 with me is if she has sex with me, or if I sign a woman and she doesn't have sex with me, I'm going to drop her, then that's a problem. But what he said to me, that wasn't a problem. We actually talked about it more after that comment, and I have that audio also. You and Trina are really close and y'all don't have a relationship like that.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Right. She's very sexy. She's very sexy. And you never tried. No, you and Trina are really close and y'all have don't have a relationship like that. Right. She's very sexy. She's very. You never tried. No, she, you know. He tried. Or did you? He tried. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:29:15 She had, you know, a situation with somebody that was a big homie in my city. You know, I'm just that, you know, one of those dudes. If you rock with one of my homies, I'm gonna spare you. So he would say, he would, he said, work with Trina, and he has, and Brianna, and he said he would sign a young girl that was an up-and-coming rapper and not try to sleep with her. But he also said that he would
Starting point is 00:29:36 try to have sex with Trina, but he wouldn't because that was his friend's man. Brianna was a personal friend of his growing up, so. Okay, but the point is, he has. It's not like I would never work with any women. What Ross said, I didn't like what Ross said. I thought he was just being ridiculous. But that's his opinion, and that's how he does his business.
Starting point is 00:29:51 I'd rather he be up front and say this is what it is. I just don't like it. I don't think you can't go in business if a female looks good because you want to smash, especially if it's an artist because you're actually investing in the artist. You're buying those clothes and doing that makeup and that hair to get that money back. I don't even believe him, by the way. I believe Rick Ross is a businessman and if a woman came to him, if
Starting point is 00:30:11 Cardi B came and was like, yo, I want to be part of MMG, I don't think Rick Ross is going to turn that down. Now, and by the way, that's his issue. That's a personal problem he was expressing. And to act like some men don't think like that is laughable. Clearly, Ross knows it's wrong. That's why he said he doesn't do it.
Starting point is 00:30:28 He said it would hurt his business. So I personally didn't have an issue with it, but I'm not a woman and I'm not upset at any woman that does feel upset about it, but I grew up being raised by the wisdom of guys like Chris Rock. And the truth to the matter is, a lot of times when a guy is being nice to you, when a guy is buying stuff for you,
Starting point is 00:30:44 he's expecting something in return. Can we play some of this great wisdom from Chris Rock real quick, please? Every time a man's being nice to you, all he's doing is offering ****. That's all it is. That's all it is. Oh, can I get that for you? How about some ****? I mean, I do agree with you.
Starting point is 00:30:58 If sometimes a guy is buying things, it's because he is trying to smash or expecting. And the truth is, as a woman, you're not obligated to do anything that you don't want to do if a man buys you something. And as a man,
Starting point is 00:31:11 you can say, man, I wish, but that's all you can do is wish. And that's the other part. People were trying to, I saw Complex try to compare it to, this is just like when he said
Starting point is 00:31:19 put Molly in the champagne. No, it's not. Because when you put Molly in somebody's champagne, you're taking away somebody's power of choice. For Rick Ross to say, this is what I want to do and I would
Starting point is 00:31:29 like to, the girl can still say no. And like I said, if he decides you know what, I'm going to drop you because you don't want to have sex with me or I'm not going to sign you because you don't want to have sex with me, then that's a problem. That's the issue. But to say you know, I'm just being honest, you know, the reason I wouldn't do it is because I feel like I would want to have sex with her.
Starting point is 00:31:47 I would have sex with her and that would be bad for business. I don't have a problem with that. Let's open up the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Good morning. Good morning. Victor from Miami. How you guys doing?
Starting point is 00:31:55 How's it going, bro? What do you think about Ross' statements? You know what? People got to stop being so sensitive, first of all, you know, because that's a natural instinct. There's nothing wrong with that. He's spending time with these women. He's prepping them up. They look gorgeous and beautiful. So, yeah, he could think about it. Doesn't mean he has to act
Starting point is 00:32:11 on it. That's it. How about if you flip the coin? You flip the coin. How about these women? Don't you think they want to have a baby from Raj? No. Or they want to get involved with them? Of course they do. No, they don't. Some of them do. Are you stupid? You think I would want to have a baby with Russ? Not you, but some women do.
Starting point is 00:32:28 No, but you would want to be secure. Yes, you would. I actually am secure. So I don't really need to have a baby by anybody to be secure. Not you, but some women definitely do. He said me. He said Angela. No, he did.
Starting point is 00:32:38 He said Angela, you would. Angela, can I speak, please? Baby girl, mami, talinda, I love you. Let me flip the coin. Some of these women are very sensitive. The thing is that you see all these fine looking chicks. They're fine as hell. Yeah, you want to bang them all.
Starting point is 00:32:51 But he doesn't. It's just a statement. Stop being so sensitive. All these women out there think worse than men. And you know that. Come on. They got to leave the guy alone. He's doing good out there, man.
Starting point is 00:33:02 All right. Thank you. Stop trying to break him down. All right. Thank you for your opinion. Dale papa. What did he say? He said, dale papa. Why he sound good out there, man. All right, thank you. Stop trying to break him down. All right, thank you for your opinion. Dolly Papa, ah, ah. What did he say? He said, Dolly Papa, ah, ah.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Why he sound like Bobby Smyrna at the end? I don't know. Ah, ah. I don't know. Bobbito Smyrna. 805-85-1051. We're talking about Ross's statement. He was on The Breakfast Club earlier this week.
Starting point is 00:33:19 This is what he said. What about a female rapper? I always felt like, I know you dibbled and dabbled with different artists, other female rappers, but... You know, I never did it because I always thought, like, I would end up f***ing the female rapper. F***ing the business up here. I'm so focused on my business. I gotta be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:33:39 You know, she looks good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta f***. What do you think? Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on in. Morning, everybody so much money on her photo shoots. I got to f***. What do you think? Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on in. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:33:48 It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Rick Ross. Now, people were pissed off with him on social media. He was up here earlier this week, and this is what he said. What about a female rapper? I always felt like, I know you dibbled and dabbled with different artists, other female rappers, but.
Starting point is 00:34:06 You know, I never did it because I always thought, like, I would end up f***ing the female rapper. F***ing the business up here. I'm so focused on my business. I gotta be honest with you. You know, you know, she looks good. I'm spending so much money on her photo shoots. I gotta f***. So we're asking 805-851-051.
Starting point is 00:34:27 How do you feel about Ross's opinion and what he said? Now, if he would have said the only way a woman can sign with me is if she has sex with me, or if I sign a woman and she doesn't have sex with me, I'm a dropper, then that's a problem. But what he said to me isn't a problem because that's his issue. That's how he personally feels. He was expressing that, you know, I personally don't want to sign a woman because I can't control myself. I don't necessarily agree. I mean, I think that way of thinking is foul and wrong.
Starting point is 00:34:54 You know what I mean? But I respect the honesty of it. I do respect the honesty. And it's his company. He can pretty much hire who he wants to hire. I just don't like it. If my daughter's dope and she's a great artist, you're not going to sign her because you might want to smash her? But wouldn't you like to know that the CEO of that company feels like
Starting point is 00:35:09 so you can tell your daughter, you know what, let's go somewhere where your actual talent will be appreciated. That doesn't mean it's right. All it means for Rick Ross is he's missing out on some great money. That's all. Yeah, and I'm a great artist. He's a great artist, and he's acknowledging a weakness. He specifically said he wouldn't sign a female artist
Starting point is 00:35:23 because he doesn't trust himself. All right, well, let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? It's Lando, man. Lando, you said you respect what he says. Yeah, man, I respect what Ross said, man, because at the end of the day, man, he's just keeping it 100, man. You know, you got an artist, and she's bad, and you work around everything. Naturally, as a man, I mean, we're going nine times out of ten
Starting point is 00:35:45 we're going to try to, you know, get with the female, man. So I don't think there's nothing wrong with what you say. Just keep it around it, man. Alright, thank you, bro. Hello? Hey, how you doing? Hey, what's your name? Good morning. My name is Goldie. Goldie, what do you think about Ross' statement? I think that
Starting point is 00:36:02 as someone who loves hip hop and as a female myself and I'm even on YouTube as well, I think he should give us a chance. You know, we all have our own flavor and we also bring things to the table other than being a
Starting point is 00:36:18 video dancer or being that girl that's in the video shaking her ass in the Rick Walk video. I think he should give us a chance. Now, Goldie, be honest. I think he could give us a chance. Now, Goldie, would you want to sign with somebody who is looking at you in that way? I don't want to sign with him, no. Okay. But I think it's other girls out there that probably wouldn't have mind, you know, being a part of his team or other girls.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Because I did listen to his music. I do listen to his music. I do listen to his music, you know, when he first came out and things of that nature. But now I'm like, damn, yo. It's disappointing for you. Now, I'm not going to lie. If I was a CEO and I had to pick a female artist, I wouldn't pick a female artist either. But it's not because of that. It's because female artists are too expensive.
Starting point is 00:37:04 With a male artist, all you got to do is pay for some jeans, some Timbs, some sneakers, and a white t-shirt. Females, you got to pay for makeup,
Starting point is 00:37:10 you got to do hair. They're more diva-ish. Remember, I DJed for Foxy Brown and Lil' Kim at one time, so I seen it all. And that's the other part of what Ross was saying too. It's expensive.
Starting point is 00:37:18 It's expensive, and guys really do feel like if they spending money on you and doing nice things for you, that they're entitled to your vagina. That is a stupid way of thinking, and doing nice things for you, that they are entitled to your vagina. That is a stupid way of thinking, and it's dead wrong,
Starting point is 00:37:28 but that is what a lot of guys think. And by the way, he does have a hair care line. I'm sure he can figure out ways to mix those two things together. If you have a woman as an artist and you get some ambassadors for your hair care, there's all kinds of ways to get endorsements and cross promotions so the cost doesn't rely all on you. Yeah, but it's still expensive. Like, even to do this show, me and Charlamagne come in here,
Starting point is 00:37:48 we come in here with beards, half hair, half not. Y'all have a barber come in? Once a week. Twice a week because my hairline's trash. I gotta keep it fresh and baldy. Hello? Hey, what do you think what Ross said? Ross said the right idea about
Starting point is 00:38:03 not hiring a female rapper because he pretty much avoided temptation right there. He's running a business right now. And you know what they all had that saying, like, don't mix business and pleasure. Now, same thing is that he did go ahead and sign a female rapper, and he ended up messing around with her. Later on down the line, that never ever took time to say, like, oh, he forced himself on me.
Starting point is 00:38:28 You know, I'm full well, she could say this or that. And then he gave him all sorts of trouble, and then he'd lose out on everything. That's what he said. He said it would hurt business. He knows his weaknesses. And, you know, I saw somebody say yesterday that, you know, he's putting all of the onus on the girl.
Starting point is 00:38:43 I'm like, no, he's not. He's putting all the onus on himself. You know what I'm saying? He's the problem in this situation, not the young lady that he signed. He's the problem. So he don't want to cause himself to be in no trouble by putting himself in a situation that he can't handle.
Starting point is 00:38:56 And he said that. He said he's the problem. I don't agree with it, but this is his business, and this is what he wants to do. This is his company, and he feels that way. I respect the honesty. Yeah, and to act like some men don't think like that is laughable. Clearly Ross knows it's wrong.
Starting point is 00:39:08 That's why he said he doesn't do it. He said it would hurt his business, so I personally didn't have an issue with it. But like I said, I'm not a woman. It's just shocking to me because I always looked at Rick Ross as a business person and I always felt like his money would come first. So in a situation like that I would feel like if he could make some great money
Starting point is 00:39:24 off of an artist that's a woman, he would do it. Yeah. But then, you know, I'm thinking about some of the CEOs now and some of the decisions they made, right? Whether it was L.A. Reid, allegedly, or Irv Gotti with Ashanti. Irv Gotti. Listen, first of all, let's not act like executives don't see for the audience. Puffy and Cassie. Puffy and Cassie.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Irv and Ashanti. It was somebody else I was thinking about this morning. Who was it? Oh, Jimmy Iovine and Nicole Chizuzer. Like, whatever her name was. Do this samurai carry. He married her. Tommy Mottola.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Tommy Mottola. Like, this happens. And like Ross just said, it would hurt business. Like, it's bad for business. Like, you know, whatever. Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart. Because it happens the other way around, too. Once again, if he would have said, if Rick Ross would have said,
Starting point is 00:40:08 the only way a woman can sign with me is if she has sex with me or if I sign a woman and she doesn't have sex with me, I'm a dropper, then to me, that's a problem. But what he said to me, it was laughable. All right, well, we got rumors on the way, E. Let's make it positive and let's talk about something that Steph Curry just did for a fan. All right, we'll get to that when we come back. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:40:26 This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Steph Curry did something great. He teamed up with Homes for Our Troops, and he was on The View. And he bought a house for Tim Burkhead for his mom and his 12-year-old daughter,
Starting point is 00:40:52 who was a handicapped, accessible home. Sounds dope. Yes, isn't that great? So Tim is a disabled veteran, and here's what happened on the show. I'm just happy to be here with you guys. I heard a lot about your family and about your story, and just to be able to celebrate in your new home for your family is
Starting point is 00:41:07 what it's all about. So Tim, thank you for being a great inspiration to me. Now you got a new place here to watch our games on TV, right? Drop one of the clues, Mom, for Steph Curry. I'm so glad that he gave them a house instead of giving them a pair of sneakers.
Starting point is 00:41:24 You could have did both. You could have did both. Nah, I'd rather the house. Please, keep those sneakers to yourself. All right, well, things like that always make me tear up a little when I see it. But I think that was a great thing that Steph Curry did. Now, Michelle Obama made her first public appearance. Well, first appearance as far as like a paid appearance.
Starting point is 00:41:40 And that was at the Women's Foundation of Colorado's 30th anniversary fundraising celebration. And this is since she left the White House, the first thing that she's done. And she actually answered the question. There were no phones allowed, by the way, no videos, nothing like that. So you're not going to see video of this. But they asked her what cut her the deepest. And she said the shards that cut me the deepest were the ones that intended to cut. Knowing that after eight years of working really hard for this country, there are still people who won't see me for what I am because of
Starting point is 00:42:09 my skin color. And she was referencing that incident when the West Virginia County employee called her an ape, if you guys remember that. Now, she also talks about empowering girls from a young age. She said a lot of that falls on education. If we want girls in STEM, we need to rethink how we deliver education. Teachers, a kind word, can mean the world to a young girl. God bless Michelle Obama. Had the pleasure of meeting her earlier this year. Yes, you and Angie Martinez
Starting point is 00:42:35 were there. Me and Angie Martinez at her college signing day. She asked us to participate in that. And sent me a nice letter afterwards that I need to find, actually. Oh, my gosh. I know. But she is so right that you remember certain things
Starting point is 00:42:49 that got in your head that somebody that you admire might have said to you, a teacher might have said to you, somebody might have encouraged you and made you really feel like you can accomplish something. So when somebody's young,
Starting point is 00:42:59 those things really do mean a lot. Yeah, because I definitely remember everybody who told me I wasn't going to amount to nothing when I was young. That was encouragement to me. That's the kind of motivation I like. That works too. I had one teacher like,
Starting point is 00:43:09 just one teacher that was like that. She hated me. Alright, Tierra Marie. She is talking on Dirty Little Secrets. All the women are talking basically about love and hip-hop Hollywood. Tierra Marie and Lil shouldn't be in the same sentence in no capacity. Stop it. Stop it. Be nice. Go ahead, Yee. And she's talking about the procedures that she had done.
Starting point is 00:43:27 Now, according to Little Fizz, all the women on the show have actually gotten some work done. You keep saying Little's everything, but it ain't got nothing to do with you, Maria. Be nice. Miss Nikki Baby had her nose and her breasts done, and she made her waist a little smaller. And she said when she was younger, she had butt enhancements, but she got some of that fat removed as she got older. Hazel E has had two nose jobs, got her breast lifted, got Botox, and she also got her vagina, I guess, rejuvenated.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Princess Love, Masika, Larica, they've all had breast implants. Now here's what Tierra Marie said happened to her on set. So yeah, my butt might've been leaking, but it was leaking fat. You know what I'm saying? Like, it wasn't leaking no fake prosthetic but I still got a nice ass
Starting point is 00:44:11 and you better know it. She had a Brazilian butt lift. She didn't have anything prosthetic. And while she was on set, there was some leakage. Now, according to co-executive producer on Love & Hip Hop Hollywood, Trevia, she said a little booty leakage on set is actually pretty common on the show. She said, I had a couple of cast members who were pumping up their hinder parts
Starting point is 00:44:32 with whatever they were putting in them. They would come to set and there would be leakage on the couches, on the back of their dresses, and all of that. Now, was it leakage or fat girl booty sweat? Now, gang, if fat girl booty sweat can work up, you know, it would be a lot of perspiration. What does it mean? Leakage. Well, Tierra Marie said it was a little bit of fat
Starting point is 00:44:48 coming out. That was sweat, Tierra Marie. She said it was fat. She's not used to being big. She ain't never been big before. That's sweat. It ain't no leakage. It's not fat. It just comes out and just oozes out. Fat don't leak out your body. I didn't know that happens. Man, Tierra Marie done gained a whole lot of weight. Would you leave her
Starting point is 00:45:04 alone? No, seriously, she's fat and she was sweating That ain't no fat leakage What is she talking about? That's sweat She also had liposuction That's booty sweat, Tierra But, I mean, according to one of the producers A lot of people have had that issue
Starting point is 00:45:17 A lot of the women who have had their butts done Have had leakage on set Really? Yeah Would you call that discharge if you was a woman? No, it's leakage leakage off your butt fat. I didn't know that was a side effect. Okay, guys.
Starting point is 00:45:28 I don't believe that. I need a second opinion. I need to talk to somebody who does that. I didn't know they could leak. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. You guys are disgusting this morning. Charlie!
Starting point is 00:45:42 Yes. Sometimes his butt leaks out. Hold on to your butts. You said Charlamagne's butt leak? No, it doesn't. Am I so serious? No, it doesn't. It does not leak.
Starting point is 00:45:53 All right. Who are you giving that donkey to? Listen, Caitlyn Jenner. Oh. Wow. Caitlyn Jenner needs to come to the front of the congregation. We would like to have a word with her. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Okay. All right. Well, you're going to give your donkey to Caitlyn Jenner. When we come back, keep the congregation. We would like to have a word with her. Okay. Okay. All right. Well, you're going to give your donkey to Caitlyn Jenner. When we come back, keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Logo Morning. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. Donkey, donkey, donkey.
Starting point is 00:46:17 One, two, three, four. It's time for the donkey of the day. That's pretty fun. Charlamagne the devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Hello. Hi.
Starting point is 00:46:31 What is that? What are you doing over there? I'm scared the hell out of me. I was like, are these voices inside my head finally being heard by everybody? Donkey of the day for Thursday, July 27th goes to Caitlyn Jenner. Now, yesterday, our celebrity in chief, Donald J. Trump, tweeted that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military. This is disrespectful.
Starting point is 00:46:57 An announcement like this isn't even worth a press conference. You're going to send news like this in a tweet. This reminds me of when I went to see that trash-ass movie called Batman vs. Superman, and they introduced the Justice League in an email attachment. The Justice League got introduced via an email attachment, and transgenders got told they can't be in the military via Twitter. Now, one thing I have learned is that when our celebrity in chief sends out tweets like this, he's trying to distract us from something else,
Starting point is 00:47:21 and this is clearly a big, shiny distraction from Russiagate. The talks to impeach Donald Trump are getting louder. There's more and more evidence mounts that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to interfere with the election. I mean, come on. We all know that your identity has nothing to do with whether or not you can defend this country. I don't believe for one second that what you identify as keeps you from doing your job in the military. Be honest with yourself, okay? And also be honest with yourself and say to yourself, before yesterday, I never thought of transgenders in the military. Be honest with yourself, okay? And also be honest with yourself and say to yourself,
Starting point is 00:47:46 before yesterday, I never thought of transgenders in the military. Never crossed my mind. Furthermore, who am I to have an opinion about who protects and serves this country by joining the military? Because guess what? I'm not going to do it. So salute to those that do and those that want to because I don't want that responsibility. So I don't care what gender you identify as.
Starting point is 00:48:04 If you want to identify as a member of the military, do your thing. Now, Caitlyn Jenner, who is transgender, tweeted out, there are 15,000 patriotic transgender Americans in the U.S. military fighting for all of us. What happened to your promise to protect them? As soon as that tweet went out, Caitlyn
Starting point is 00:48:19 was hit with the, why? Because Caitlyn voted for Donald Trump. Let's flash back to the time when caitlin spoke with don lemon about her support of donald trump we need to turn this country around and he's a guy that i think for better or worse i don't support him in everything that he does um but we needed to shake the system up uh you know to have career politicians constantly the clintons and you know know, the Bushes run this country. I'm kind of we need to get outside that box and shake things up again.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Caitlin, here's the thing. When someone shows you who they are, believe them. OK, what's that quote? It's a quote. I saw it. I saw it on Linda Sarsour's page yesterday. Salute to Linda Sarsour. It says, first, they came for the communists and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me. That is the
Starting point is 00:49:16 position people like Caitlyn Jenner are in right now because you sat back and watched this guy Trump discriminate against women, Muslims, Mexicans, and now that it is you, you want to be upset. Caitlyn, don't be upset about a problem that you contributed to. You voted for him.
Starting point is 00:49:31 These are the repercussions of your actions. Now, Caitlyn was on Seth Meyers the other night, I believe, and he had this to say. I'm not a one-issue voter. And obviously, I know I'm not stupid. The Republican Party does not do a good job when it comes to equality. And the entire LGBT community. The Democrats are better there. But all of a sudden he gets into office and one of the first thing he does, which he never should have done, is repeal the Title IX for equality for
Starting point is 00:49:56 trans people in school. Okay, a few things to unpack here. Number one, Caitlyn said she's not stupid. Yes, she is. Okay, that's the first thing. And I will tell you why she's stupid. You're not a one-issue voter, but when one issue is you and what you are, shouldn't that be the issue before anything else? Your personal well-being, your personal rights, that should be number one. And if Democrats
Starting point is 00:50:18 are better at LGBT rights than Republicans, and you are a member of the LGBT community, why oh why would you vote against your own personal self-interest? Donald Trump yesterday tweeted that the United States government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. military. Caitlyn, your vote caused that. You helped get this man elected and he gave you exactly what you voted for. The question is, why did you vote for him in the first place?
Starting point is 00:50:46 Please give Caitlyn Jenner the biggest hee-haw. As a matter of fact, give her some smooth sounds of the hammer to her. Sing to her. You are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yeehaw. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey of the day.

Starting point is 00:51:29 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. What up, y'all? It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now it's time for ASCII, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Good morning.
Starting point is 00:51:41 It's Angie. How are you guys? Angie. Meet Angie. Hey, Ann. I love people named Angie automatically. How are you guys? Angie. Meet Angie. Hey, Angie. I love people named Angie automatically. I love you too. I listen to you guys every morning, by the way.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Angie. What's your question for Angie? I'm kind of torn in between the two. I've been with one man for about five years off and on, and he's all my son knows. And I kind of met another guy in between when we were off and on and he's all my son knows and um i kind of met another guy in between when we were off and on and i gave him the opportunity and we've been off and on for like three years now i'm kind of stuck now because they both want to fix their mistakes they both want to be with me but legit my loyalty is only to one person and i just don't know who I should give my all to.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Well, who do you like better? And what mistakes did they make? Because you said they both want to fix their mistakes. Okay, so the guy that I was with for five years, he kind of cheated on me. He kind of did cheat on you. To me, he did, but he says he never slept with her. Now, it was just like a pop-up ad, like a prostitute type thing. So that's what kind of has me, you know, like my life.
Starting point is 00:52:51 He hired a prostitute? Yeah, kind of. Like he says he never got to the location, but I saw the messages. I saw it play out, you know, so I'm not that stupid. You're telling me you never made it, but to me, you made it there. Now, how did you see the messages? You were looking through his stuff, his phone? Now, I can say the one time in four years that I went through his phone was the day that I found out.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Only because my woman to wish and told me something is not right. And he made the mistake and left his phone unlocked, and I went through it. And I found what I knew already in my heart. So, you know, I left him in the day, in the moment. And, you know, for seven months, eight months, he just was persistent and he's all my son knows. So I, you know, didn't want to keep my son away from that. So you stayed with him because of your son? Yes, because my son cried and told me that he wanted his family back. But that's not his dad, right? No. Okay, now tell me about the
Starting point is 00:53:51 other guy. The other guy's great, you know. He's kind and genuine and he, you know, has his insecurities like any other man, but he's willing to fix his mistakes now. And his mistakes are his insecurities? His insecurities and not coming around when he should have. And when I tried to kind of include him into me and my son and, you know, telling him that I'm a package deal, at the time he kind of had cold feet. He never dated a woman with a child. And then when it kind of got serious,
Starting point is 00:54:26 he kind of, you know, fell back. So then I just fell back and I was like, okay, well, then maybe I'm not the woman for you. And I respect that. So let me just do me. But over the last month or so, he's been like sending me flowers and calling me and, you know, having like his best friend call me and inviting me to, like, barbecues and wanting to see me and wanting to talk to me. And as much as I've ignored him, he just doesn't go away. So it feels to me like it seems like you like this second guy more, but he just wasn't ready to be that committed to a woman and to her son.
Starting point is 00:55:00 And the first guy, you want to be with him just because your son is comfortable with him and likes him. And because we have so much history. But I've lost so much with this guy. And, you know, I have hope and potential for him because I know what he's capable of. But I don't know if that's enough for me to want to stick around for another five years to see if he's going to get it together. Right, because sometimes we sit around and we wait for somebody to live up to the potential that we want them to live up to and they never do. Right, and then I just feel like I'm kind of wasting
Starting point is 00:55:27 my time and my son's time and, you know, he's not the best man, but yeah, I feel like he's a father figure. This is what I think. I think you need to be single right now because you're not sure what you want to do and so in order for you to not have to make a decision right now, you need to be single.
Starting point is 00:55:44 That way you can date the second guy some more. See if you really like him, really care about him, give him a shot. And if you don't, I don't think you should have to settle for somebody just because you guys have history. Okay. So you need to because you're not in the space right now where you've even made up your mind. I don't know if you even want
Starting point is 00:55:59 to be with either one of these guys. Right. Alright, so take your time. You're not being you're not pressed to have to be with anybody right now, right? Yes and no. What's the pressure? Just that they don't go away. And, you know, the guy that I was, um, the second guy, I, he's kind of crazy. Oh, God, girl, why would you want to be with somebody crazy?
Starting point is 00:56:18 Just that you would even describe somebody like that is a no. Like this guy legit went and got my name tattooed on him. The whole name. But you like that is a no? Like this guy legit went and got my name tattooed on him. The whole name. But you like that? Or no? I like crazy because I'm a little crazy myself, but you know, it's to an extent and we've had this conversation previously like, oh, that's a stupid idea. And then when I asked
Starting point is 00:56:36 him why he went ahead and did it, he's like, because you made an impact on my life and I wanted you to always be a part of me. So it's like... Angie, Angie, you don't need to be in a relationship right now. You need to be single. You need to date. I don't know if either one of these guys
Starting point is 00:56:47 is for you or not, but you're not decided, which means don't make that decision. Okay. Until you feel sure. Okay. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:56:54 No problem. You guys have a wonderful morning. This is the first time I get to talk to you guys, but I'm so excited because I listen to you guys every morning
Starting point is 00:57:02 and I never get through. All right. But Angela, you are the best. Thank you. Love you too get through. But Angela, you are the best. Thank you. Love you too, Angie. All right, Angie. All right, Aski.
Starting point is 00:57:09 800-585-1051. Hit her up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. My name is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Aski.
Starting point is 00:57:19 If you've got a question for Yee, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Brittany from Columbia. Hey, Brittany. What's your question for you. 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Brittany from Columbia. Hey, Brittany. What's your question for you? I want to ask you
Starting point is 00:57:30 if I'm being petty by taking my husband to divorce court and asking him for spousal support. Why is that petty? Our divorce date, our court date
Starting point is 00:57:40 is actually next month and it's already been agreed. I filed the paperwork to not ask for spousal support, and now I think I want to change my mind. Well, listen, if you're entitled to that, the judge will decide that. I couldn't say that it's petty if you get it. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:57:55 So how long were you married? It'll be two years next month, but we've been separated for over a year and a half. So y'all was really only together for a few months? Literally. We were only together for a few months? Literally. We were only together for like four or six months. What happened? I really don't know. I really think that somebody else came in between our relationship
Starting point is 00:58:13 and he just decided that that wasn't where he wanted to be anymore. With me and our son is not where he wanted to be. And he left and I let him. All right. I mean, yeah, you can't force somebody to stay if they don't want to be there, right? Right. And I think that it All right. I mean, yeah, you can't force somebody to stay if they don't want to be there, right? Right. And I think that it was going to be detrimental to our family dynamic and our son later if I had tried to force something, force him to be where he didn't want to be.
Starting point is 00:58:33 All right. That's very adult and mature of you. And does he pay child support? He does. Okay. So now you want to get child support too. Right. Well, what is your lawyer saying? Well, he's saying that there's a good shot, but if it doesn't go well, because we weren't
Starting point is 00:58:50 married that long, and we actually didn't even live together because we were living with our parents for three months after we got married. And when I bought a house, he didn't even want to move into the house. So you're not going to get much spousal support anyway, even if you do get it. Right. So it may strain the relationship of co-parenting that we do have that's in a good place right now.
Starting point is 00:59:09 I don't know if it's worth it to take the chance or not. It don't seem like it's worth it to me. It's not even going to be any amount of money to make a difference. You guys weren't even married that long. He pays child support. You have a good co-parenting relationship. Just let it be. And you be happy yourself and go out there
Starting point is 00:59:25 and get some good karma. You're right. All right. Thank you so much. No problem, Brittany. Now, that's a mature woman. She said he don't want to be here. I'm not going to force him to stay
Starting point is 00:59:35 because it's not good for our relationship. And I want to make sure he's there for my son. Ask Yee, 800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, you could call her at any time.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Now, Yee, we got rumors on the way? Yes, let's talk about flipping some money now, some finances, find out whose investment for less than $1 million turned into a $25 million profit. All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumor. Let's talk LeBron James. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:00:14 So listen up. Well, we've been following LeBron and his investment into Blaze Pizza, which he invested in in 2012. He invested less than $1 million, along with his business partner, Maverick. Pocket change for LeBron. And his financial advisor. And turns out now that less than $1 million investment has turned into $25 million.
Starting point is 01:00:36 In addition to that, his stake in the business is worth $35 to $40 million, according to sources, because that's going to also include endorsement payments. And he also has a partnership with Larry Levy, who runs franchises in Miami and Chicago for him. Oh, that's what investment's all about.
Starting point is 01:00:53 That is a great investment right there. And he did good. You know how much he made when they sold Beats by Dre to Apple? How much? He made $30 million off of that, because he had a stake in that as well. I wonder what he traded all in for a hairline, though. I think about stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:01:09 He'll rather shave his head bald. Isn't he bald now? He's bald now. He's happy with it, I'm sure. Now, according to Maverick, Maverick said, LeBron and I have always been about finding companies that we truly believe in and putting real money into them. We're not talking about putting in $15,000 or $20,000.
Starting point is 01:01:22 It's real money plus the expertise, understanding, and knowledge that we bring as well as bringing LeBron's name and likeness to the product. Okay, relax, Maverick. Don't knock those of us that can only invest $15,000, $20,000. Jesus Christ. Gosh, yeah. And the people that can't even invest that, don't knock them.
Starting point is 01:01:39 We get it. God dang, Maverick. But I guess what he's saying is if you have a company and you need a real investment plus some expertise. Come holler at that. I don't care if I invest $100 in my hard-earned money. That's a real investment. At least I'm talking to you. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 01:01:54 He's not talking about the t-shirt. He's talking down on those of us who can't afford to invest a million dollars. I'm talking to you. But obviously LeBron can't afford to invest. So there you go. But he has an investment team. It's not just him as well. And that's why I always tell people,
Starting point is 01:02:07 you should always try to form these financial groups. My friends and I are actually doing one to buy a vacation home. Me and some of my girls are putting our money together to get a vacation home. We'll drop one of Clues bombs for LeBron in his pocket. Where's the vacation home? Well, that's what we actually have been researching. Where's the best place to buy one so that we can Airbnb it?
Starting point is 01:02:24 You're going to let me stay for free? No, you got to pay. It's not just me. It's a group of us. So your share, you're going to let me stay for free? I ain't got to. I'll take the five kids. No, nobody care.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Jesus Christ. You go places all the time for free, all right? Mm-hmm. All right. Now, Jay-Z, according to Vic Mensa, told him to take a diss off of his album. Now, Vic Mensa, as you know, he was a 2014 XXL freshman, by the way, doing great now. He had a four-song EP called The Manuscript that he put out to get ready for his official debut album, which is coming out tomorrow, The Autobiography.
Starting point is 01:02:56 And Jay-Z mentored him on this album, and here is what he said happened. Hope has been somebody to tell me when to pull back. There was a situation where I had a line that I said something that was kind of dissing somebody else. And it wasn't really necessary. And I just wanted it because it was a good bar. You know, I played it for him. He hit me thinking about it. He was like, man, you know, I think you should take that off of there for this reason.
Starting point is 01:03:19 And so I went and I tried and I didn't like none of the alternatives. And I'm like, man, you know what? I'm going to keep that on there And he told me, what you're doing won't work out in your favor Because your heart is not in it I thought the autobiography was already out I thought it came out last week No, it comes out tomorrow
Starting point is 01:03:35 He's right, the only make moves when your heart's in it I like Vic Minster a lot, man I can't wait to get to the autobiography It's been very hard for me to get off that 444 I tried to dibble and dabble in other projects. Like, I like 21's album. I like 2 Chainz. Meek's album's good.
Starting point is 01:03:48 I like Meek. Meek's album is good. But I've been killing that 444. But I'm definitely tuning in to Vic Minster tomorrow. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee.
