Do your research because he's actually pretty dope. Actually, at the Future and Drake show, they brought him out on stage.

Drop one of the Clues bombs for Cardi B. Cardi B is the hood to Beyonce, damn it. I was a little embarrassed, though, because Cardi B, after she performed, wanted to give advice to the kids. And what's wrong with that? What's wrong with you? Don't act like Cardi B's advice is don't be working. What advice did she give?
Starting point is 00:05:37 She was like, stay in school. Great advice. Because if you want to suck D for free, you should stay in school because she sat on mad people's faces to get where she was. What? That's real. That's a great...
Starting point is 00:05:50 Why you act like that's not great advice? She's basically telling girls to stay in school unless you want to be a prostitute. That's what she said? That's it. That's all she's really saying. I wish she would have said it like that. Well, she didn't,
Starting point is 00:05:59 but you got to read through the... You got to read between the lines. Like, if you just got common sense, you can comprehend what she's saying. Well, that was her advice to the kids. Well, yesterday I was out and about. I'm doing this event with Bud Light, and Big Sean is performing.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Bud. It's like a political party convention. So we were giving away tickets yesterday. Bud. At Harlem Tavern. And then our former intern, it was her birthday. Bud. What did he turn?
Starting point is 00:06:21 So we went to dinner. Nikki. Nikki. Hola, Nikki. Shout out to Nikki. She works at Atlantic Records now. Drop one of Clues Bombs for Nikki.

Drop one of Clues Bombs for Nikki. Salute to that young African out here in East Creech making her way.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Listen, Nikki is great. I met her in the airport. She was working for TSA. Yep. For JetBlue. And she submitted her resume. She ended up getting the internship. And then when she got the internship, she did such a great job.
Starting point is 00:06:40 She did. She ended up getting a job at Atlantic. We did refer her and recommend her and all of that so now she's been doing really well. So we took her out for her birthday last night. Shout out to Nikki. By the way, whenever I go to the airport I get such great service. Like, you know, they'll take me to the front of the line
Starting point is 00:06:55 and stuff because of Nikki. You don't have pre-TSA? No. You do have TSA pre-check. I do? Yeah. Oh. That's why you go to the front of the line. No, they still do take me because of Nikki. She got mad friends that work there. They always come up to me and introduce me. Yeah, they did that to me too.
Starting point is 00:07:09 And be like, I'm Nikki's friend, and they'll take me right to the front. But you travel internationally too. They'll come and get you and be like, come on, I got you. That's a pre-TSA. I'm friends with Nikki. All right, well, shout out to Nikki. I don't want to say the young lady's name because I don't know what she's doing. What she's supposed to be doing.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Oh, yeah, that's right. Don't say her name. You're going to mess supposed to be doing. Don't say her name. You're going to mess up your own thing. Don't say her name. She knows who she is. You know who you are, Nikki's friend. There you go. Well, let's start the show. Front page news, what we're talking about. Yes, everybody is talking about this robbery story at the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Was it real? Was it fake? We'll give you an update on what happened. Also, the flooding in Louisiana is the country's worst natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy, according to the Red Cross. Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. Here's Tory Lanez. It's love. It's the Breakfast Local Morning.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. When is Tory Lanez going to come out with a hook of his own? Record hot, but let's not act like his hook's going to be coming from dope-ass 90s records. We got three records. The L.A. Confidential record was his own record. That's my song.
Starting point is 00:08:11 The first one was Say It. That was Brownstone. This one is Everybody Falls in Love Sometime. Anyway, guys. I'm just saying. It's a formula that's been working. It's working, and it's working well. It's good, but let's get the 90s as props, okay?
Starting point is 00:08:24 Well, let's get into front page news. Let's get an Olympic update. Now, the U.S. men's basketball team beat Argentina 105-78. They play Spain in the semifinals. So they look like they're back doing what they're supposed to be doing. Now, let's talk about these U.S. women, G. All right. Well, there's some inconsistencies, according to authorities,
Starting point is 00:08:42 in the story that Ryan Lochte and three of his teammates told. They said they were robbed early Sunday morning. But now they're questioning whether or not the accounts of what happened is true or if they're trying to cover something up because the story has changed. You know, originally, Lochte said that he and his teammates weren't pulled over, as he had previously stated. He said they were at a gas station when they were robbed. And then at one point he had originally said that He said they were at a gas station when they were robbed. And then, at one point, he had originally said that there was a gun to his head. Well, Loxie said that's not
Starting point is 00:09:09 exactly what happened. One of the robbers had a gun and pointed it in his direction, but not directly on his forehead. So right now, they kept asking him about inconsistencies in his story and whether the swimmers were with anyone that they shouldn't have been with at that time. But he is denying that there was any cover-up at all.
Starting point is 00:09:25 So when you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you said. Always remember that, people. But what the hell would he be lying for? That makes no sense to lie. Like, what was he doing that he wasn't supposed to be doing? Well, two of the swimmers were actually removed from their flight back home by Brazilian authorities. That's how much they felt like their story was inconsistent. I want to know what they're hiding.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Maybe they were leaving a prostitute house or something. I don't know. They said they were leaving a party at the French Hospitality House. There you go. Sounds like a whole house to me. Sounds like a whole house. That's a fancy way to say you had a whole house. They said that the people that robbed them were posing as police officers.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Authorities did issue a search and seizure warrant for the men's passports because they didn't want them to leave the country. Then it just seemed weird. They took everything. They didn't take their credentials. They didn't take their watches. It was a little strange. They took about $124 worth of money
Starting point is 00:10:11 but didn't take any of their jewelry. That's all they had on them was $124? They don't get more than that in petty cash? What? They used their card, I'm sure. They used their card. In $124? When you're in other countries,
Starting point is 00:10:22 and there's no sense of keeping their money, keep their currency because it's not your currency, so you might as well use your card. Yeah, it translates into $124? When you're in other countries, you know, and there's no sense of keeping their money. Keep their currency because it's not your currency. So you might as well use your card. Yeah, it translates into $124 American money. All I know is when you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you said. Always remember that case. They didn't take their watches. They didn't take their cell phones.
Starting point is 00:10:35 The judge is like, why would they take the money and not take your watch? The other guy got out of Dodge. One of them got home. He said, I'm out of there. Let's talk about this flooding. All right. They're saying the flooding in Louisiana is the country's worst natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy. According to the Red Cross,
Starting point is 00:10:50 70,000 people have actually registered for FEMA assistance after that. A lot of people still don't know what their homes are like, are staying in shelters, staying with friends. One person, Justin Silvis, is saying that we still don't know the state of our house. And people just are relying on Facebook videos and word of mouth to find out how bad the damage is because they still haven't been able to go back to their homes. You know what's crazy about that? They said a lot of people have houses but don't have flood insurance because the place where they live, they wouldn't need it. And that was the place that got flooded.
Starting point is 00:11:20 So they can't even insure their home. So I guess they just lose out on all that money. They just lost their home. They lost everything. Their valuables, everything. But it has been declared a national disaster. So I would think they could get some sort of assistance. Well, salute to everybody in Louisiana.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Hold your heads. I really don't know what else to say other than that people are praying for you. There you go. And that is a fact. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now tell them why you're mad.
Starting point is 00:11:42 800-585-1051. Phone lines are wide open. If you want to holler at us, vent a little bit, that's front page news. Now, tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. Phone lines are wide open. If you want to highlight us, vent a little bit, call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, hey, hey, yo, hey, yo, good morning, yo. This is the Mad Rapper, son, for real.
Starting point is 00:11:59 I'm mad and I stay mad. I stay angry. I stay heated. I stay pissed off. Tell them why you're mad. Breakfast Club, let's go. I'm mad because they arrested my son, who's a police officer from Wilmington, Delaware. For what? Why'd they arrest him?
Starting point is 00:12:10 One of the snitches. He torched my son's car. Off-duty car. When they arrested the snitch, the snitch said, my son told him, torch the car. So they arrested my son. So you're mad because the priest didn't arrest one of their own? Yes. Oh, you want the blue wall of silence to protect him?
Starting point is 00:12:29 No, I just think they need to investigate more. Oh, okay, okay. We got on camera police officers shooting someone but never got arrested. So basically you want some consistency from the police. If you're going to let one officer off for doing wrong, let them all off for doing wrong. You can't do that. I understand that.
Starting point is 00:12:48 I'm all for you when it comes to moral consistency. You can't do that, man. I'm with that. I like moral consistency. If he did something wrong, he should have been arrested regardless. Hello, who's this? Cheese.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Okay. DJ Cheese, what up, baby? I was about to say, ain't nobody taking a picture of your ass. Cheese. It's good you're back, man. What you cheese, what up, baby? I was about to say, ain't nobody taking a picture of your ass. Cheese. It's good to be back again. What you want, man? My man, Shirley.
Starting point is 00:13:09 What up, sir? How y'all feeling this morning? Hey, man, better than your mama? What's happening? Better than you. Hey, I hope so. Hey, Shirley, you know I took a picture of your wife? No, you didn't.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Yeah, she got it moving around. She looks like the Oxtail. Come on, man. This guy. Man, that is so stupid. Oh, man. This guy is stupid. Hello, who this?
Starting point is 00:13:40 What's going on, NNG? What's going on? This is C-Duck. I'll be to one. I'm mad for two reasons. One, I'm driving to work when I should be driven to work. And two, I got vacation in one week, and the one person that could cover me at work just got fired yesterday for stealing.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Damn. Well, take your ass to work, bro. Bro, PTO was submitted a minute long ago, bro. I can't even leave. Well, listen, even though you're not getting driven to work this morning, you have to be driven. Yo, passion. Bro, PTO was submitted a minute long ago, bro. I can't even leave. Well, listen, even though you're not getting driven to work this morning, you have to be driven.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Yo, passion. I'm driven. There you go. All right, bro. Well, good luck with your vacay. Come on, ain't no vacay, bro. I got to train somebody now.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Good luck on your overtime. Congrats. There you go. You get overtime. Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Call us right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Bryson Tiller with Don't Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Listen, I'm ready for the weekend simply because I want to watch The Get Down on Netflix. Let me tell you something about Netflix, man. Netflix always got one thing on there
Starting point is 00:14:45 that everybody binges and I binge off recommendations and everybody's recommending the Get Down right now. Oh, I've been watching the Get Down actually. Is it good?
Starting point is 00:14:51 It's really good. Now, when I first started off, it's kind of like watching a Shakespeare play because you have to get used to like... A Shakespeare play? You have to kind of get used
Starting point is 00:14:59 to the flow of it and the language of it because it's a different time period. It takes place in the 70s. It's right when disco is kind of ending and hip hop is starting. And it's kind of a musical also because it's very music incorporated. The birth of hip hop.
Starting point is 00:15:14 It's that time period. I think the guy who made it made Romeo and Juliet or something. But it's also a love story at the same time. You've seen the whole thing? I only watched the first two episodes so far. But it's really good. I'm enjoying it a lot. And you know, Jaden Smith is in it. Will've seen the whole thing? I only watched the first two episodes so far, but it's really good. I'm enjoying it a lot. And, you know, Jaden Smith is in it, Will Smith's son.
Starting point is 00:15:28 What? The Gandhi of our time? Nobody told me that. Yes, he's in it. I also saw everybody was talking about Jaden Smith's gay kiss on there also. And guess what? Daddy's first role was a gay role. Daddy did it, he did it.
Starting point is 00:15:41 This is his about 10th role. He'd be all right. My goodness. All right, mom. When we come back, we got some rumors. What daddy did it, he did it. All right, and this is his about 10th role and he's okay. He'll be all right. My goodness. All right, when we come back, we got some rumors. What we talking about, Ye? We'll talk about Cat Williams.
Starting point is 00:15:50 He's facing some prison time. He's the only person I know that could keep punching people and not really go to jail. That's a good place for him. Also, we'll discuss houses. We'll tell you what
Starting point is 00:15:58 these young ballers are doing, who's moving in together in Beverly Hills and who just bought yet another house. Mansion, really. All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:16:07 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. Rumor, rumor, rumor. On The Breakfast Club. Listen up.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Well, Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill have gotten a house together. They're just renting it. That was $30,000 a month, and it's in Beverly Hills. And there were some issues before. They were actually trying to buy a property together, but then this house arrest situation happened. So now they have this lease. So congratulations to them.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Beautiful house. We saw pictures online. Okay. Also, Kylie Jenner just bought another house next door to the house she just bought in May for $6 million. The house next door that she bought is $4.5 million, and that's actually going to be for her cosmetics line and kind of a crash pad. So when friends come and stay, they can stay next door. Wow, it's like a guest house. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:00 So basically, you're saying that Tyga and Meek Mill need to get these young women pregnant, right? Drop one of Clue's bombs for trapping a woman. When you got a good one that's financially stable, you got to do what you got to do. All right. Cat Williams, in the meantime, has been officially charged with misdemeanor battery. That is for allegedly punching a woman. Now, a female employee at a restaurant in Studio City said that he attacked her and there were some visible marks on her body. Some minor injuries.
Starting point is 00:17:25 So if he does get convicted, he faces up to six months in jail for that. I don't mind Kat Wynn being locked away from the rest of us. That keeps people safe out here. All right, Freddie Gibbs in the meantime. Let's give an update on what's going on with Freddie Gibbs. Now, in case you guys don't know, he was arrested two and a half months ago inance from an alleged sexual assault that took place in vienna austria last year well he has now been formally charged in that incident now at first there were reports that it was two women but now they are saying the incident involves a fan who went to one of his shows and allegedly according to these reports
Starting point is 00:18:01 she's accusing him of spiking her drink and at that point leaving her psychologically impaired and defenseless. And then they're saying that he did sexually abuse her. So that's what he's being charged with, sexual abuse of a defenseless or psychologically impaired person. Now, he is denying this. He's facing up to 10 years in prison if he does get convicted. And according to his lawyer, they're saying that he denies these accusations. He never had any sexual contact with the alleged victim at all, and he is 100% innocent. As the investigation and process continues, Mr. Gibbs remains hopeful that a thorough,
Starting point is 00:18:36 searching, and complete investigation will reveal the actual facts, which is that there is an absence of any scientific, physical, or credible evidence implicating him. That's all I ask for when it comes to rape cases, man. Do a thorough investigation because as a man who's been on the other side of that and been accused of criminal sexual conduct, you've got to go through all of that. You've got to give your DNA and hair samples, and you are damn near guilty until you prove yourself innocent. Does he have a bond or is he still locked up?
Starting point is 00:19:02 He was released. He got out on $55,000, but then they did take him back into custody after he went to court the last time and they extradited him from France to Austria. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:19:11 because he hit me a few weeks ago. I thought he was out but I guess he went back in. Right, so, you know, and I do see his fiance,
Starting point is 00:19:20 he has a one month old back at home so I see that she's been... Has to be a one-month-old, yeah. Boy, there's a lot of rape going around. A lot of rape allegations going around, Jesus Christ. Lord have mercy. It's like Zika.
Starting point is 00:19:33 All right, well, we will keep you updated on what's going on with that as they investigate. He is saying that he is completely innocent. And that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right, Ms. Yee. Now, when we come back, front-page news. What's in the news today? We're talking about the flooding in Louisiana. They're saying it's the
Starting point is 00:19:48 worst natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy hit. Wow. Okay. We'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Here's Riri. Everybody, it's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's give you some front page
Starting point is 00:20:03 news. Now, Olympic update. The U. Club. Let's get some front page news. Now, Olympic update, the U.S. men's basketball team, Team USA, they beat Argentina 105-78. Now they play Spain in the semifinals. Yeah, I don't give people props for what they're supposed to do. You know what I'm saying? That's like a father taking care of his kids. I'm not giving you props for that. You're supposed to do that.
Starting point is 00:20:20 I'm happy they won. The games were looking pretty close, but they blew this team out. Yes, Team USA, I'm happy you're taking care of your kids. Now let's talk about these U.S. swimmers. Did they really get robbed? I don't know what's going on, but Ryan Lochte is saying that him and three of his teammates from the U.S. were robbed early Sunday morning. Some details did change.
Starting point is 00:20:37 And so right now, they do have them in custody, just trying to figure out. They detained them from leaving, just trying to figure out what really happened. Now, originally they were saying they had gotten pulled over and that they were at a gas station when they were robbed. I don't know what's going on with these guys, but the story's been changing a little bit. At one point, Lochte was saying he was at gunpoint. Now he's saying that he wasn't at gunpoint at his forehead, but a robber did cock the gun and point it in his direction,
Starting point is 00:21:04 but not directly on his forehead. So there have been some inconsistencies. And two of the swimmers were actually pulled off of a flight. That's how serious they feel like this is as they investigate what really happened. Also, the judge is questioning why were their watches not taken. They still had only about $140 worth of money was taken. Well, I know one thing. For all the white people who get upset when people say that they age horribly,
Starting point is 00:21:26 please don't point to Ryan Lockett for an example of y'all not aging horribly. Why does he have a full gray head of hair and why does he look 73 years old? How old is Ryan Lockett or whatever his name is? I don't know how old he is. He died at gray. What that got to do with his face? Look at this picture and look at Eminem with that picture with Drake. Eminem looked 20-something years old.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Ryan Lockett looks 67, easily. Now let's also talk about the floods in Louisiana. Well, right now the floods in Baton Rouge are the worst since Hurricane Sandy, the worst natural disaster. Supposedly now, at this point, 70,000 people have registered for FEMA assistance in Louisiana, and they still don't know, a lot of people, what their house is looking like. So they're relying on Facebook videos and word of mouth to
Starting point is 00:22:10 find out how bad is it. A lot of people are in shelters. They're staying at friends' houses. They're trying to figure out when will life get back to normal or if it will ever get back to normal because they don't know what's going on at their own homes. So very terrible situation.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Very sad. Everybody in New Orleans, man. And like I said, what makes it even worse is a lot of people didn't have flood insurance on their home and nothing will be covered because the place where the house is, it's not a flood zone. So they didn't have to have it. And it seemed like it did get flooded. Why wouldn't you have flood insurance, especially after Katrina? Well, some people don't live in a flood zone area where they don't require flood insurance.
Starting point is 00:22:46 I would get it just in case. Do you have flood insurance in your house? Yes, I do, because I got a baby. Oh. Yeah, of course. Absolutely. And some people don't. If it's not in a flood zone, you don't have to have one.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Right, it's not required. It's not required. All right. I'm a hypochondriac, though, so I think about anything that possibly can and will happen. You know what? I'm the same way. I have hurricane insurance. I have tornado insurance. I have all types of stuff that never can and will happen. You know what? I'm the same way. I have hurricane insurance. I have tornado insurance.
Starting point is 00:23:06 I have all types of stuff that never hits New York City. And if you rent, they say you should get renter's insurance because it's really cheap and it will insure everything in your home. Absolutely. Some people don't have that. People don't even know. I mean, I didn't have renter's insurance. I think my first apartment I did. My first apartment, I didn't have renter's insurance. I remember I had
Starting point is 00:23:21 some mildew in the closet or something and they wouldn't cover it and I was so upset about that. Something happened. I don't remember what happened. Oh, you mean you were renting out to someone? No, I was not in the apartment.
Starting point is 00:23:31 You rented an apartment. But why would you have to pay for the mildew? Wouldn't the person that owned it? No, it was something that happened. Your clothes got ruined or something? Yeah, something got ruined
Starting point is 00:23:38 and I was like, they should be covering this and you don't have rentals insurance. Yeah. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now, when we come back,
Starting point is 00:23:45 we're talking rape. Nate Parker's... Could you ease into this one, sir? Jesus Christ. I don't know what just happened. Go ahead. All right, now, we all know Nate Parker.
Starting point is 00:23:54 You've seen the movie the other day. He directed... Birth of a Nation and Nat Turner. A story about Nat Turner. Amazing, amazing movie. Now, he has some rape allegations.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Does that prevent you from supporting Birth of a Nation? That's the question. I don't know. Would you call them rape allegations? Because he was actually charged with rape 17 years ago, and he got found innocent. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:10 People found out about that old charge. He was acquitted. Yeah. For 800-585-1051, because of these, I guess, what, accusations? Because he was charged? Because of these past accusations. Does that prevent you from supporting Birth of a Nation? People are saying that you should boycott the movie.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Yeah, because I saw an article on Complex yesterday, and it was like there's absolutely no reason to support Nate Parker. That was the headline. Okay, and we're going to talk about his accusations. We're going to talk about what happened. We're going to talk about some of the things that were in the transcript so you understand exactly. It just wasn't he was charged with rape and he beat the charges.
Starting point is 00:24:43 There's a lot more to it. So we'll talk about that when we come back as well. 800-585-1051. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's F for free. It's Khaled. Another one. Another one. That was Vitorious V.I.G. with Juicy. Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV Angela Yee. Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Yes, indeed., we're talking Nate Parker and his birth of a nation. Now, Charlamagne, you actually seen the movie. You said the movie was amazing. I saw the movie.
Starting point is 00:25:09 I think the movie is absolutely incredible. I think that everyone should see this movie. I was actually having a conversation with a professor yesterday who's torn about whether or not she wants to see the movie, and I'm like, I don't think that you should keep your kids, your students, from seeing this film. Now, his past with these rape accusations seem a little sketchy to me.
Starting point is 00:25:26 I read the transcripts. Seems a little foul. Absolutely positively foul. But I do think it's a movie that African-American people should see. I think it's a story that should be told. And I think it's a slippery slope because I have a daughter.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Yep. And if this happened to my daughter, it would be one of those things where I would try to kill him. I mean, listen, man, I'm able to separate the art from the artist. And this movie is an interpretation of a true story. And I'm glad that Nat Turner's story is on the big screen.
Starting point is 00:25:49 And I think we all should support this Black Liberation movie because the story of Nat Turner is very important. And if it makes you feel better, rapists get killed in the movie. But you know what? You say that, but then, you know, you don't support R. Kelly. Yeah, because R. Kelly was on tape peeing on a little girl and it's documentation of him marrying a 15-year-old chick. Nate Parker says it was consensual. He didn't do it. As a guy who's been
Starting point is 00:26:11 charged of criminal sexual conduct, I don't have no reason not to believe him, especially if he got found not guilty in a court of law. So you're saying you separate artists from the artistry. Separate the art from the artist. But, because R. Kelly was found not guilty also. We saw a tape.
Starting point is 00:26:26 I'm just saying. But we saw a tape. I saw what happened. I read what they're saying happened the night that she definitely was drunk. Period. We don't know if she was
Starting point is 00:26:34 blackout drunk or inebriated. That's what the discussion was. She didn't like blackout drunk. She didn't know how many people was in the room. Because, you know, even in a bar, she was waiting for
Starting point is 00:26:40 Nate Parker to come on a date. He was two hours late. While she was waiting, the person that was waiting on her said that they felt bad for her. And somebody else in the restaurant came over, bought her about five drinks. And I think the waitress gave her two additional drinks. So they said she was definitely at least inebriated, but they don't know if she was black. She was drunk. Listen, God bless that young lady.
Starting point is 00:27:00 You know, may her soul rest in peace. All I want is some moral consistency You can't pick and choose What quote on quote rapist you choose to support Tupac, Mike Tyson, Kobe Bryant All had sexual assault, rape cases Pac and Mike actually got convicted But you still supported them
Starting point is 00:27:17 Kobe got off but he was still supported Ben Roethlisberger, he's been accused twice of sexual assault His charges got dropped You never see slander for him on social media. Not the kind that Nate Parker's been getting the past 48 hours, so I just don't know how y'all pick and choose what quote-unquote rapists to support. I just need some moral consistency from
Starting point is 00:27:34 everyone. That's all I want. That's it. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Justin, calling from Monk's Corner. What's up, bro? 843. What's happening? From the crib. Y'all probably know each other. Y'all know each other? I don't know, man, but I'm here in the Goose Creek right now and there's traffic, so, you know. Okay, so we're talking about
Starting point is 00:27:49 Nate Parker's rape accusations. Does that prevent you from supporting the movie? No, it won't prevent me. They are called accusations. They're not convictions. Like, I still supported R. Kelly through his accusations, Michael Jackson through his.
Starting point is 00:28:01 These girls out here, they be throwing around accusations and then that can't stick to you if it's not like a conviction. I can see if you did something like that, dude, that plays for the Panthers, then I wouldn't support that. You're talking about Greg Hardick. People still support that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:16 Okay, thank you. Hello, who's this? This is Nene. Hey, Nene, we're talking about Nate Parker. Do you support his Birth of a Nation movie? I am indifferent because I'm a survivor myself. So you definitely don't want to be the person to line the pockets of someone like that. But at the end of the day, it's still a turning point in our history right now.
Starting point is 00:28:35 You know, that's a movie that we all need to see. I agree with you. It's a black liberation film, man. I never thought in my life I would see a Nat Turner story on screen. And right now, with the volatile times that we're in, I think this is the perfect movie for people to go see. Yeah, I agree. I think the movie is needed.
Starting point is 00:28:51 But the problem is, you know, I'm looking at it from two different sides. As a dad, I'm like, F him. But as a college student and somebody went to college and seen people getting drunk and seen people doing crazy stuff that they did, it's like, it's two sides because you really don't know. So once again, I want moral consistency. How do you feel about Tupac? How do you feel about Mike Tyson?
Starting point is 00:29:08 I don't know the situation with Tupac or Mike Tyson. They got accused of rape and got convicted. I was too young to read the transcripts. I really didn't care at that age. I was what? I feel like people are allowed
Starting point is 00:29:18 to pick and choose whatever they want to do. If they want to support him, they can. I'm not going to tell you you should support somebody if you really don't want to. Let me ask you this question.
Starting point is 00:29:24 How do you pick and choose what so-called rapists you support? That's all I want to know. That's a him. How? I'm not going to tell you you should support somebody if you really don't want to. Let me ask you this question. How do you pick and choose what so-called rapists you support? That's all I want to know. That's a question. How? It's up to the individual. If that person feels like I read the transcript, I saw what happened, I don't want to support him, I'm not going to tell you you should. That's your own belief.
Starting point is 00:29:38 So the Kobe transcript, the Mike Tyson transcript, the Tupac transcript, they just weren't as bad as this one or what? What was in the transcript? Tupac transcript. Tupac got oral bad as this one or what? What was in the transcript? Tupac transcript. Tupac got oral sex from a young lady on the dance floor, and then they went back to the room. Some of his guys smashed. He slapped her on the butt, and he got charged with sexual assault. Ended up going to jail for that.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Okay, I didn't read that transcript. See, for me, I was too young. I was like 10, 11, 12 years old. I wasn't in the transcript back then. Stop. Okay. I mean, I never read the Tupac transcript. Oh, yeah, all right, no doubt. Mike Tyson, I was too young. Oh, yeah, all right. No doubt.
Starting point is 00:30:05 My type of guy was too young. I don't know. I was into playing basketball. Kobe. You wasn't young with Kobe. Kobe was never my favorite player. So if it was Iverson, you'd be like. I didn't care about Kobe.
Starting point is 00:30:13 But listen, you know, I'm glad you said it. I'm glad you. I didn't support Kobe. I didn't really care or even get into Kobe's life. I'm glad you said that. You know why I'm glad you said that? Because it does have to do with stardom. I wasn't into Kobe.
Starting point is 00:30:22 That's what it really does. I didn't care less about Kobe. If Nate Parker was a star, like a superstar, you'd be like, oh, all right, yeah, okay, cool. No, I didn't care about Kobe. It wasn't something I cared about. I never watched the Lakers. I really wasn't into him.
Starting point is 00:30:34 That's not moral consistency. I mean, another twist to this is the woman did end up killing herself, and she did try to kill herself right after that. It's a tragic situation. I just want moral consistency from everybody. That's all I want. Well, when we come back, let's find out if Angelina... People aren't morally consistent.
Starting point is 00:30:49 That's just period. I'm glad you made it. They just aren't. Let's find out if you're going to support the movie when we come back. You're a female. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:30:57 That was Drake with Controller. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angelina Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, we're talking Nate Parker. Of course, he was accused of rape. He was acquitted. And he has a movie, Birth of a Nation, coming out.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Are you going to support this movie? That is the question. Now, Angela Yee, will you support the movie? This is how I feel about it. After reading Nate Parker's statement of what he said, the statement that he gave, and this was important to me, he says, I cannot nor do I want to ignore the pain she endured during and following our trial. Mm-hmm. be in that situation. So he does say that he can look back and say without hesitation that he should have used more wisdom. I do appreciate the fact that he can acknowledge that he should have
Starting point is 00:31:50 used more wisdom and morally he feels like he should never have even been in that situation where he did something that he felt like perhaps if he could go back it was wrong. So you want to see the movie? Just being in that situation. So I do appreciate the fact that he has spoken out about it, released statements and is being very vocal about it. So yes So you're going to see the movie? Just being in that situation. So I do appreciate the fact that he has spoken out about it,
Starting point is 00:32:05 released statements, and is being very vocal about it. So yes, I believe I would see the movie. I believe I would. I mean, listen, I've watched Woody Allen movies. Yes. And he definitely was... That's why I say all I want is moral consistency from everybody. And my thing too, why can't we believe him
Starting point is 00:32:21 if he maintains his innocence? I look at all these cases different because I've been accused of criminal sexual conduct and had to go through the whole process of giving DNA samples and all that, and I didn't touch the chick. Well, he clearly touched the chick. Yeah, that's true. And he does himself say that morally, if he could go back without hesitation, he should have never been in that situation.
Starting point is 00:32:37 That's true. My only thing is, like he said, she was drunk. He had sex. He knew she was drunk. My problem is you know she's drunk. You know she's intoxicated. And then you call your man in to get some. That's the only part that hurts me and bothers me.
Starting point is 00:32:49 I tell dudes all the time, do not have sex with drunk women. Do not have sex with high women. It's just not worth it at the end of the day. Just because a woman is drunk and she's feeling all over you, that still is not consent. Let that be a lesson to everybody. Just watch what happened to Nate Parker when he was younger, which he regrets now, and let that be a lesson for you. So you never make that mistake.
Starting point is 00:33:10 The truth of the matter is, as a man, nobody cares about a man when you're accused of rape. You're guilty until proven innocent, and even when you get found innocent, you're still guilty in the court of public opinion. Hello, who's this? Ryan Weston from North Charleston, South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:33:25 843 is heavy this morning. Nate Parker will be here. Will you support? I would support the work, but not the person if all the allegations are true. But as Charlemagne said, he was alleged. Because you got to respect the work from the artist. You got to separate the work from the artist.
Starting point is 00:33:41 That's it. R. Kelly has a great example. He's a dirty old man, but damn, he's a good ass. Oh, my God. Isn't that what I'm saying? No, you're right. You're right. We do that with everybody. We's it. R. Kelly has a great example. He's a dirty old man, but damn, he's a good ass. Oh my God. Isn't that what I'm saying? No, you're right. You're right. We do that with everybody.
Starting point is 00:33:49 We do that with R. Kelly. We've done that with Michael Jackson. We've done that with Chris Brown. We've done that with Mike Tyson, Tupac, Kobe Bryant, Ben Roethlisberger. You do it all the time. I just want moral consistency.
Starting point is 00:33:57 That's all I want because I don't know how y'all pick and choose who to support. Hello, who's this? Bae from Detroit. What's good, brother? Your name ain't Bae. What up, Joe?
Starting point is 00:34:04 What up, Bae? Hey, what's good, brother? Your name ain't Bae. What up, Joe? What up, Bae? Charlamagne. Hey. Hey, Bae. What's going on? Hi, Charlamagne. We're talking about Nate Parker's movie, Birth of a Nation. Will you support?
Starting point is 00:34:13 Yes, I will. Because I don't understand what a charge that he had in college has to do with the movie at all. People still support R. Kelly, right? Now, you know, people don't really support R. Kelly as they did before that. Oh, stop it. Envy, stop it. You know how long that sex tape was? What's R. Kelly, right? Now, you know, people don't really support R. Kelly as they did before that. Oh, stop it. Envy, stop it. You know how long that sex tape was?
Starting point is 00:34:28 When was R. Kelly's last album? I don't remember, but think about all the ones after that chocolate factory, Step in the Name of Love. He came back and did a tour with Jay-Z. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:34:37 I like Step in the Name of Love, though. Thank you, mama. Oh, I like Step in the Name of Love. See? I like Step in the Name of Love. And listen, that was my joint.
Starting point is 00:34:44 All I want people to admit is we don't have moral consistency. We don't. And that's fine. People aren't consistent with anything in life. That's fine. We're never consistent. And that's all I want. I'm going to go see the movie.
Starting point is 00:34:52 I think the movie's neat. As long as we admit that we're morally inconsistent, I'm fine. Well, it's up to you. If you decide to support it, support it. If you don't decide, you don't have to. I'm not going to go out and have tea with the guy. We're not going to be best friends, and I'm not going to have my kids over at his house. But you don't.
Starting point is 00:35:03 But why not? You need to hear his side of the story as well. I read the transcripts. He gave his side of the story. He gave his side of the story. And he gave a statement. You're going to really hold a man accountable for what he did 17 years ago, even if he's still maintaining his innocence.
Starting point is 00:35:15 In his mind, he's maintaining his innocence. Even though, when I read the transcript, I think what he did was wrong, simply because I wouldn't have sex with a drunk woman, and I ain't calling my homeboy. Well, he wouldn't have done it again either either and when he looks back, it was wrong. And that's what I'm saying. Listen, man, Malcolm X was once Malcolm Little and this generation don't allow people to grow and evolve. Like, he's not the same man he
Starting point is 00:35:33 once was. It's a tragic situation that this girl committed suicide, but do we even know she committed suicide because of that? Well, according to her family members, her life was destroyed after that and in the trial, she did say that she tried to commit suicide twice during the course of that period.
Starting point is 00:35:46 It was a difficult, her life, her brother said she was never the same after that. So whatever, regardless, it changed her life.
Starting point is 00:35:53 I'm sorry. I wish her family the best. But the moral of the story for me is I'm able to separate the art from the artist. And this movie is an interpretation
Starting point is 00:35:59 of a true story. And I'm glad that Nat Turner's story is on the big screen. And I think we should all support this Black Liberation movie because the story of Nat Turner is very important, and I saw it two days ago, and rapists do get killed in the movie. Believe that. All right. We got rumors coming up? Yes, let's talk about Kodak Black. He was supposed to
Starting point is 00:36:19 get out of jail yesterday, but unfortunately it's not going to happen. We have some inside information on what went down, supposedly that he couldn't get out of jail. Also, YG has some good news. We'll tell you what he has going on. And Will Smith talks about what saved him from getting divorced. What saved them from their divorce. Alright, all that and more Keep It Locked
Starting point is 00:36:38 rumors on the way. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. The rumor report. Man, Kodak Black was supposed to get out of jail yesterday, but during the exit process, guess what happened? What? They decided he needed to cook a little more. They found two warrants that were discovered after his hearing.
Starting point is 00:37:03 So one of them is a criminal sexual conduct warrant, which is a felony. And the other is two counts of misdemeanor cannabis possession. Now, from what I heard, it was from having sex with a girl who was underage. Jesus Christ. But he's only 19, so you gotta think what's underage.
Starting point is 00:37:19 That could be 17. A couple years younger than him. So that's what I heard is the reason why he didn't get out of jail. Where you heard that from? Because I have people that know people. We can't just be saying stuff like that. Jesus Christ. God, you got to be doing that to guys all the time, man.
Starting point is 00:37:35 From a very good source, I got that information. But he's definitely being held still because they found some outstanding warrants. Hey, you could have just left it at that. Now, Kodak Black is a pedophile. No, I don't know about that. You just said it. I'm saying, what if the girl was 17? Then he's 19.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Or what if he was 18 at the time? Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly. Allegedly, allegedly. And I'm just saying, it's what I heard. I'm not saying, you know, but whatever. Anyway, but it is definitely one of the warrants. It's a criminal sexual conduct warrant. All right, YG has some good news.
Starting point is 00:38:06 He actually has partnered up with Interscope Records, and that is for his 400 records. He's done a multi-year joint deal. He said, I'm the CEO and creative director. So my ish I do on a daily basis is I get and wears bumpers about ish. I get on everybody's ass like I just oversee everybody's marketing plan, rollout plan, the goals we're trying to accomplish, the touring, all that type of ish. I get on everybody's ass like I just oversee everybody's marketing plan, rollout plan, the goals we're trying to accomplish, the touring,
Starting point is 00:38:27 all that type of ish. I'm making sure it happens in a timely fashion and I'm doing my thing as an artist. Congrats to him. What artist wide do you got? He got the female,
Starting point is 00:38:35 what's her name? It begins with a K. Kama, Kama, I can't think of it but she's dope. She got a lot of records out and she's doing really good on the West Coast
Starting point is 00:38:43 and her record is actually branching out. Can't think of a name. It begins with a K, though. It's like Camellia. I know you're talking about Camellia. I don't know, but she's dope. I met her when I was in L.A.
Starting point is 00:38:53 All right, now Will Smith says this is what saved him and Jada from getting divorced. He's spoken about counseling. He said the two of them had joint counseling to save their marriage. They had a lot of problems. They've been married 19 years, so I can't imagine you would go almost 20 years with no problems. So they actually had to go to therapy after their marriage reached their breaking point. He said what happens in a marriage, once you do counseling, the truth comes out. And you sit across from your wife, and you said all of your truth, and she said all of her truth.
Starting point is 00:39:19 You look at each other, and you can't imagine you could ever possibly love each other again now that the truth is out. And then he said it creates a dark moment, but for me it's the dark before the dawn. When the truth comes out and people have to say who they are and what they think, you get to know who they are. I think that's the cleansing before you get to the other side that is understanding and moving forward in our relationship. Dropping a clue bomb
Starting point is 00:39:39 for Will Smith. You know I'm a Pinkett Smith, Winfrey knows called it. That's my last name. And he went on to say we are just not quitters. That's it. A lot of times people get married and then they get into a... It doesn't work out. They just let it go. Sometimes it does take a lot of work in order to make sure you can get together. Of course marriage takes work. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:39:55 You gotta tell your woman sometimes if you get caught cheating. Oh, you just gonna quit? You gonna be a quitter? What kind of example are you setting for the kids by just quitting? Are you gonna quit cheating? Yes. Okay, so you are a quitter. The best apology is changed behavior. I always tell y'all that.
Starting point is 00:40:10 All right, well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. Thank you, Miss Yee. Chalamet! Yes. Who you giving that donkey to? What's this old young face man name
Starting point is 00:40:16 or the young old face man? Ryan Lockey? Ryan Lockey? Lockey. Yeah, he need to come to the front of the congregation. What's his last name? Is it Lockey or Lockey?
Starting point is 00:40:22 Lockey. He need to come to the front of the congregation and he need to find a fountain of youth to go swimming in. Okay. We'll get into that when we come back. Donkey, the day is on the way. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:40:31 Come on. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. Donkey, donkey, donkey. Bunch of dead, dead, dead times. For the donkey of the day. That's pretty fun. We're Charlamagne the Devil.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Yes. Donkey of the Day for Thursday, August 18th goes to Ryan. What's his name, Lochte? Locky. Ryan Locky? Locky.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Ryan Locky and his teammates, okay? First of all, I want to say, Ryan Locky, you're really too young to be looking this old, okay? Ryan Locky is 32 and looks like he's been president for eight years. I mean, my God, the young man is aging like milk. He has a full head of gray hair and looks like he needs to be on a piece of United States currency. Yeah, forget a two-term president. Ryan Lockett looks like a dead president. Now, Ryan Lockett said he was robbed at gunpoint in Rio.
Starting point is 00:41:20 He said that the robber took his money, his wallet, and some other items. That's unfortunate. Yeah. He told Billy Bush all about it on Sunday. Let's hear what he had to say. We got pulled over, taxi. These guys came out with a badge. No lights, no nothing, just a police badge.
Starting point is 00:41:39 They pulled us over. They pulled out their guns. They told the other swimmers to get down on the ground, they got down on the ground, I refused, I was like, we didn't do anything wrong, I'm not getting down on the ground, and then the guy pulled out his gun, he cocked it, put it to my forehead, he said get down, and I was like, I put my hands up, I was like, whatever, he took our money, he took my wallet, and then... But he left your cell phone, he left your credential.
Starting point is 00:42:06 He left my cell phone, he left my credential, but he took my wallet. Okay, so the guy pretended to be police officers, pulled him over, pulled him out the car, put a gun in his head, took his wallet, and all kind of other stuff, right? That's awful. Now, I tell you all the time, when you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you
Starting point is 00:42:22 said, okay? Ryan Laque clearly has forgotten details of the story, because when talked to, who was this, NBC's Matt Lauer, right? When he talked to NBC's Matt Lauer, he maintained he was robbed. But he altered his story a little. Who's this telling this? Bob Costas talking? Let's hear what Bob Costas had to say.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Did he alter any of the details, tweak his story in any way? He did change one thing. I would say he softened something. One thing he did not say this time, he didn't say he was pulled over by these people pretending to be police. They had gone to the bathroom in a gas station. They got back to the taxi. And when they told the taxi driver to go, he didn't move. They said, let's go again. We've got to get out of here. And again, the taxi driver didn't move. And that's when he says two men approached the car.
Starting point is 00:43:07 When he talked to Billy Bush, you'll remember, on Sunday, Bob, he said that's when the guy took the gun, put it to his forehead, and cocked it. When he talked to me tonight, he said that's when the guy pointed the gun in my direction and cocked it. Boy, when they like you in the media, they can spin your words and make them sound so eloquent. They didn't say Ryan Laque lied. They said he softened his story.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Now, you know how else he softened his story? Ryan Laque says it was four gunmen. His teammate James Feagin said it was only one guy. Somebody didn't huddle up and tell the rest of the team to play, huh? Now, the biggest hole in this story is Ryan Laque and his teammates returned to the Olympic Village,
Starting point is 00:43:50 and they had to pass through security equipment at the airport, and video cameras showed him still holding personal possessions, including watches, cell phones, and even the wallets they said they got robbed for. Let me tell you something. Lies require commitment. And Ryan Laque and his crew don't sound committed to this lie, okay?
Starting point is 00:44:07 There are three types of lies. Regular lies, damn lies, and statistics. This right here sounds like a damn lie, okay? The only good thing about this lie is Ryan Laque and his teammates aren't hurting anybody but themselves. Like my daddy always told me, you're not lying to me, you're lying to yourself, okay?
Starting point is 00:44:22 You can lie to yourself all the time as long as you don't believe yourself. And Ryan Laque, I hope that you don't believe this BS story you concocted because we don't. Please give Ryan Laque and his teammates the biggest see-saw, please. Wow. Sounds like an insurance scam
Starting point is 00:44:38 or insurance fraud. They didn't even say certain things were missing, though, like that. Nothing really expensive. Why would they do it? I really, I don't know what the hell they were lying for. I just know when you tell a lie, you know, I mean, when you tell the truth, you don't have to remember what you said. You know, they say that for every gold medal
Starting point is 00:44:54 that you win, I think you win only $25,000. That's fine. That's not fine. You've been practicing for four years straight. Boy, are you rich. Four years straight? You said only $25,000. For four years, you've been practicing every day? But you make so much money in endorsements. You get on the front of the Wheaties box.
Starting point is 00:45:11 No, that's only Michael Phelps. Ryan Laque going to be fine. You know why? What about the other guy? What other guy? Exactly. You don't even know his name. James Figgins?
Starting point is 00:45:19 Who? Who are you talking about? Him, yeah. He won a medal. He got $25,000 for four years. He's an Olympic gold medalist. That means something. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:45:27 He probably get free food at Denny's. I don't know. I don't know what that means. He probably get free IHOP. It means something. Okay. Okay, it means that when you're in the media and you tell a lie, they won't call it a lie.
Starting point is 00:45:38 They'll say you softened your story. Okay. All right? All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Angela Yee. Yes, sir. Ask Yee is up next. 800-585-1051. If you got a question for
Starting point is 00:45:50 Yee, you can call her right now. Maybe you need to soften up your story and she can help you out. But whatever you need, she'll put you live on the air. I didn't lie. I softened my story. 800-585-1051. Call her now! It's the Breakfast Log. Good morning. That was 50 Cent, 21 questions.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Shout out to the boy 50, the whole E-Mob. Now it's time for Ask Yee. 805-851051. If you got a question for Yee, you can call her right now. Hello, who's this? What's going on, man? It's Kyle from Riverdale, man. Kyle.
Starting point is 00:46:20 What's up, bro? Hey, man, I got a question for Yee, man. Yee, what should I do about my girl? We have a problem, right? Okay. The problem is we just got an apartment together. You know what I'm saying? We just had a baby together.
Starting point is 00:46:32 So we fresh and we new. And we just got a little apartment. The first thing she does is I say, baby, what we going to do is we going to just take it easy on the bills. We going to just do the bare minimum. You know? First thing she does is she gets the expensive cable package. You know what I'm saying? All the channels.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Stars, HBO. She gets everything. I'm like, baby, what are we going to do? We're going to get the fire stick. We're going to get the Wi-Fi. And just take it easy. You know what I'm saying? But she just keeps spending, keeps spending, keeps spending. And I'm like, baby, just chill. We need to take it easy. We're trying to build. But she just don't want to listen
Starting point is 00:47:06 to me. Okay, now I feel both of you because I know how I am at home. My home is my sanctuary so I know I go all out. But I also know at certain times you have to budget, especially when you're taking both of your finances into account. You guys just had a baby, got a new place together.
Starting point is 00:47:21 What I would suggest you guys do is agree to not make decisions financially in your home without consulting each other. And that should go both ways. I would say that you two need to sit down together and come up with a budget and figure out how much you're going to spend every month and what you're going to spend it on. That way you guys are both accountable. So for instance, when you buy a new TV, when you get a cable package, when you figure out, are we going to do our kind Edison bill and do a monthly payment that's going to stay consistent? Or are we going to pay whatever you guys decide you have to do it together as a team?
Starting point is 00:47:54 And that's the point, is that you guys are supposed to be a team working together and budgeting together. And she's probably also not used to having to consult with somebody else before doing things like that. Right, right. Okay. You know, so it's all a learning process for both of you. Yeah. So take that into consideration, but let her know, okay, let's figure out together what our priorities are, what we should be spending money on.
Starting point is 00:48:17 Let's come up with a monthly budget so we know what it is. We got to be responsible. Right. All right. I appreciate it, man. Okay. No problem. All right. I appreciate it, man. Okay, no problem. All right. Good luck, bro.
Starting point is 00:48:27 ASK-YEE, 800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, you can call her right now. Or you can always email Yee, breakfastclubam at gmail.com. All right? It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Bryce and Tilla with Don't. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:48:41 It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call her right now, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Hey, what's up? It's June.
Starting point is 00:48:56 What's up, June? What's the question for Yee? I like hearing y'all every morning, but all right, this is my question, right? So I knew this girl since I was seven. We, you know, never had a thing never did anything i bumped into her recently at the hospital where she worked i fell off my bike we ended up going out like the night after she had like we had a couple drinks everything was cool and you know we ended up going through we went through the whole motions okay now uh halfway through the most like before
Starting point is 00:49:21 that happened she she went outside she had a, she came back and she told me she had a man. So it's a little, like I'm a little disappointed because I know her for years and years and we know each other through a godly sense kind of thing. Now we're doing it on the regular, but she still has a man.
Starting point is 00:49:40 So you're her side piece, basically. And you want to go from the side piece to the main. I mean, usually I'm okay with this main. You know, not for nothing. I mean, usually I'm okay with this, but, you know, it's because I have too much history with her. Like, it's like, damn. Like, I feel like. So you want her to leave her man for you?
Starting point is 00:49:55 I mean, it's just, I don't even know how to take it right now. I'm at that disappointed stage. Like, damn. I mean, I'm going to take what I'm going to get. You know what I mean? I'm okay with the side piece, but it's like... Damn, she got all the power, huh? Yeah, she's kind of winning right now, huh?
Starting point is 00:50:09 Alright, yeah, she's definitely winning. What does she say about her relationship? Are they having issues or is everything good? It's like, she said that she never really put a title on it and she hasn't touched him since we started. I mean, that's her story, You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:50:25 So why is she still with him? Hey, you know what? That's a good question. I mean, boy, he treats her like a princess. She's telling me that. That's fine. I'm not really going to do all that. Okay, so he spoils her.
Starting point is 00:50:35 He spends money on her. Yeah. But she doesn't have sex with him. Yeah. So, in other words, I mean, in my eyes, I'm like, so why? So I'm kind of like the side piece, but so is this. No, he's the main piece because does he know about you? He kind of has a hint.
Starting point is 00:50:53 How do you know? Because she actually. Who's her man? Who does she say is her man? What do you mean? Who's her man? She has a man, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:04 It's not you. No. You're the a man, right? Yeah. It's not you. Nah. You're the side piece, okay? He's not the side piece. You are. Don't get it confused. Don't get it confused. Right.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Don't get it confused. And you said that you'll take what you can get, so you are okay with it. But you just want more. Now, if you got with her, you think you would trust her? Nah, nah. Okay, so the dilemma is this. It's a challenge to you because you feel connected to her because you've known her for a long time,
Starting point is 00:51:29 but you also know she can't be trusted. Yeah, so it's a little disappointing. I mean, I guess I'll just go with the flow. Well, listen, I already know you're not going to stop sleeping with her whenever you get the chance to do that, but just be prepared to know that this could end at any time. Your feelings are invested. That's what the real issue is.
Starting point is 00:51:48 The real issue is, keep in mind, PYP play your position. Yes, you are the side piece. Don't ever get it twisted. Don't believe that she's not sleeping with that man. He just treats her like a princess. She's sleeping with both of y'all. You're okay with it or you're not. That's on you.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Yo, she is definitely winning. This is cool, though. I appreciate the advice. Okay. I'll figure it out, though. Yeah. Yo, it was cool talking to you, V.A.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Appreciate it. Good luck, bro. And stop thinking that if you put it down on her, she's going to leave her man for you, okay? I know that's what you think. All right.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Ask E. 800-585-1051 if you have any relationship advice. You can always call Yeezy. Now, we got rumors coming up. Yes, find out what Kanye is doing across the world starting tomorrow. Okay, we'll get into that when we come back.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report.
Starting point is 00:52:41 Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Kanye is opening up 21 Pablo pop-up shops across the world, and that's going to happen tomorrow. It's going to hit cities like Singapore, Amsterdam, Melbourne, and the United States.
Starting point is 00:52:56 It'll be in Portland, Detroit, San Francisco, Vegas, Chicago, and Atlanta. So there's going to be 21 pop-up shops, and they're going to announce everything on his website before they open. Each city gets its own tee and hoodie with its name on the front in various different shades. I ain't mad at Kanye. Kanye goes to Urban Outfitters, buys a hoodie, and then puts Pablo on it and screen printing that little funny old English letters,
Starting point is 00:53:16 and people go crazy. Drop one of the clues bombs for Kanye finessing the system. I actually got my brother a Pablo jacket. So you got him a jacket from Urban Outfitters, and you screen printed old English letters on it that said Pablo? To keep it real,
Starting point is 00:53:27 somebody sent it to me and it was an extra large so I gave it to my brother. Oh, okay. It really happened. But he liked it. It's a nice maroon color. Oh, I got that one.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Yeah, you all got it. I got that one. I'm going to break it out in the winter. I'm going to probably peel off all the old English letters and just rock it.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Thanks, Natina. Thank you, Natina. I ain't seen Natina in a while. Ever since Natina got her butt done, she don't be coming around that much. She does not have her butt done. Congratulations to Natina, by the way.
Starting point is 00:53:48 She got a promotion at Def Jam. Drop one of Clues Bomb for Natina. Shout to Natina. See what happens after you go see Dr. Miami? She does not have her butt done. All right, now. I don't know if you guys know about this, but LeBron has started his own digital network.
Starting point is 00:54:03 It's called Uninterrupted. And he was actually a guest on Jesse Williams' podcast, along with Jesse Williams' co-host, Stefan Muralichakis. Their podcast is called Open Run. Now, while he was on there, he talked about a lot of different things. He says that he wants to one day own a team. He said, I would love to be a part of a franchise, if not at the top. My dream is to actually own a team.
Starting point is 00:54:24 I don't need to be fully hands-on. If I'm fortunate enough to own a team, then I'm going to hire the best GM and president that I can. But I feel like I got a good eye for not only talent, because we all see a lot of talent, but the things that make the talent. The chemistry, what type of guy he is, his work ethic, his passion. The basketball IQ side of things, because talent only goes so far. I always wondered, and I don't even know if this is possible, when LeBron made his decision to go back to Cleveland,
Starting point is 00:54:47 I always wondered why he didn't ask for a percentage of the team. He might have. Because I feel like LeBron could have got that. I feel like if anybody could have got that, LeBron could have got that in Cleveland. A percentage of the team? Yes. He could have got that. Even if it was just something small.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Has anybody else ever done that? I'm just curious. I don't know. I don't know. That's why I said I don't even know if it's possible. They also asked him what kind of animal would J.R. Smith be if he was an animal. And guess what animal he said. That's a very odd question.
Starting point is 00:55:09 It is an odd question. What's the answer? He would be a dolphin. Oh, you're talking about Jesse Williams? The activist Jesse Williams? Yes, from Grey's Anatomy. The activist, yes. All right, I just need him to do activism and not give interviews.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Because that's like, why would you ask a grown man that? I'm going to try that in an interview. I'm going to ask somebody vicious that. What? The next little thug rapper that comes up here. What kind of why would you ask a grown man that? I'm going to try that in an interview. I'm going to ask somebody vicious that. What? The next little thug rapper that comes up here. What kind of animal would you be? What would you be? Hey, Kodak Black, if you were an animal,
Starting point is 00:55:32 what kind of animal would you be? All right, what kind of animal would Charlamagne be if he was an animal, would you say? A werewolf. I used to want to be Teen Wolf when I was younger. You couldn't tell me that I wasn't going to actually. See, now, it's not such a dumb question now, right? No. Because you're actually answering it. He's more like a raccoon. Charlamagne tell me that I wasn't going to actually. See, now, it's not such a dumb question now, right? No.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Because you're actually answering it. He's more like a raccoon. Charlamagne is like a raccoon. A raccoon. I used to be a raccoon. Dr. Sandy took away my coon skin.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Please drop one of Clues' bombs for Dr. Sandy. What would Angela Yee be? The little hamsters that dried IKEA. Remember them hamsters that used to dry IKEA back in the day?
Starting point is 00:56:00 I'd be a panda. Them hamsters that used to dry them Kia souls. All right, well, when he answered the question about J. Them hamsters, they used to drive them Kia Souls. All right, well, when he answered the question about J.R. Smith, he said he would be a dolphin. He said dolphins are really killers. Sharks are afraid of them, but they got to have a group around them to become the best of their ability and incredibly smart.
Starting point is 00:56:21 Okay. That's a nice, thoughtful answer. I didn't know sharks needed a group. Dolphins? A gang? Oh, dolphins. Yeah. Oh. He I didn't know sharks needed a group of gang. Dolphins? Oh, dolphins. Yeah. He said sharks are scared of them, afraid of them. Yeah, I thought about sharks because dolphins are gay sharks. I'm sorry. What? Alright, Adrian Broner is getting
Starting point is 00:56:33 released from jail after 30 days. Alright, he had asked to be released early so he could train for an upcoming fight. The judge shut that down, but they're saying now he's about to be released as long as he doesn't do anything stupid. Well, leave it up to Adrian Broner. He probably will do something stupid. I mean, that's, but they're saying now he's about to be released as long as he doesn't do anything stupid. Well, leave it up to Adrian Brown. He probably will do something stupid.
Starting point is 00:56:48 I mean, that's, you know. And we're keeping an eye on what's going on with Kodak Black, by the way. He was supposed to get released from jail yesterday. Turns out he had two outstanding warrants. And so, yeah, no, not going to happen. And one of them is a no bond hold, which means he cannot be released. And that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee.
