They wake up in the morning and they want to hear that Breakfast Club. The world's most dangerous morning show. We in the mother, We in the house. Good morning, D. Zambie. Charlamagne Tha God. Beast of the Planet. It's Friday. Woo.

Thank God it's Friday. Drop one of Clues bombs for Friday, damn it. Are you wearing a front? I got my grill in my mouth. You know why? Because I've been listening to 21 Savage for 48 hours straight. OK? When I listen to 21 Savage, I forget I got children.

So yes, I got my gorilla this morning. I came in listening to 21 Savage No Heart this morning. This is weird. Yes, it is. 21 Savage is actually in town this weekend. I know, man. I ain't gonna be here. I'm gonna be in South Carolina all weekend, man. You wasn't going to the club anyway. I would've probably went to go see

21 Savage. It's not at a club, though. It wasn't at a club. You don't be at a club, too, this weekend? Yeah, they told me he was at some building. It was like a venue. I forgot where. His manager actually texted me. Yeah, he's actually doing a club, and he's doing a performance.

You wasn't going out there. I wouldn't go to the club. I might go to a performance. I don't even believe that. And go hide up in the rafters like Sting. Remember Sting from WCW? Go hide in the rafters and watch 21 Savage spit that hot fire. Okay?

Well, all right. He wasn't going no 21 Savage. I would have went, bro. His sound was good. Okay? I wouldn't have went to the club, but I probably would have went to go see him perform wherever he was at, all right? No one believes you. He would have said he was going.

Hey, no one believes you. I sit back and breathe like cat in a hat. 21 Savage is the cat with the mac. 21 Savage, not boys in the hood, but I pull up on you, shoot your ass in the back. Oh, my goodness. Where's my green juice? All right. You going back to the healthy?

You going to take the girls out and drink the green juice? Listen, I'm balanced. Okay, righteousness and righteousness is the yin and the yang of life, sir. Okay, and I was reading my Joel Osteen this morning. Yesterday, I was with the RZA. Oh, drop one of Clues' bombs for the RZA. Wu-Tang Clan is my favorite group of all time. How was the RZA?

What'd you do at the RZA? Well, I was at the Apple Store. You know they have an Apple Store in Brooklyn now. It's beautiful. Where in Brooklyn? It's in Williamsburg in Brooklyn. I heard the Apple's rotten in Brooklyn, though. No, this is in Williamsburg.

Oh, the one in Brownsville is rotten. Probably that one. It's an Apple Store right outside the Pink House Projects. Keep getting it right. The Apple's rotten. They still got iPhone 4 rotten. All right. Probably that one. It's an Apple store right outside the Pink House Projects. Keep getting it rotten. That one's rotten. They still got iPhone 4s. They wouldn't keep that one open. He was launching this thing called Rolly Blocks.

It's his latest product from Rolly, and it's called Blocks. So basically anybody can make music. It's not expensive. It's under $200, and you can make beats on it. It's like a little block, and you just touch it. Yeah. That's dope. You can make beats and hook it up to the software and the app and everything, so you can make beats on it. It's like a little block and you just touch it. Yeah. That's dope. And hook it up to the software

and the app and everything so you can make beats on the go. It's good for an entryway if you want to be a producer or want to produce music. Right. It's a good way for you to get started

because it's not that expensive. How much is it? It's under $200. Oh, that's dope. It's like $170. That's like the next level of Fruity Loops or whatever the kid was using.

But we were talking about how, because I used to work for Wu-Tang. That was my first job. And back in the day, in order to make beats, you had to have the right equipment, and that equipment is so expensive. It used to be expensive back in the day. And now it's accessible to people.

Because I was asking him, I was like, when you first bought your SP-1200, your ASR-10, everything you used to make beats, how much was it? He said you needed like $2,000. More than that? Just to buy that. And then you still had to buy the mics. Right.

Everything else to record. The MPC was like $1,800. The SP-12 was like $2,000. More than that? Just to buy that. And then you still had to buy the mics. Right. Everything else to record. The MPC was like $1,800. The SP-12 was like $1,200. The ASR-10 was about $800. These are all beat-making materials that they had back in the day. Y'all talking about guns and lotion. SPF 50. No, these are all beat-making materials.

And then you had to have keyboards, and those keyboards were expensive. Everything was expensive back then. Because you used to have to do a little at a time. Like, I bought the beat machine, but then I couldn't play keys because I couldn't afford a keyboard. All I could do was beat,

so I had to sample all the time. Then you had to save up some money and buy a keyboard. Then you didn't know how to record it. Pro Tools was expensive back then. It was a lot,

but it's good. He used to have to rent equipment sometimes. That's how he was able to do it. We didn't have credit to rent a credit machine. What is Metro Boomin' using? That's what we need

to talk to right now because we don't know why Young Savage, why you trapping so hard. People have to have credit to rent a credit bank. What is Metro booming using, okay? Because that's what we need to talk to right now because we don't know why Young Savage, why you trapping so hard. Why these Negroes capping so hard? Why you got a 12-car garage? Yesterday, I was trying

to make a beat. It sounded like it was in a scary horror movie or something, but it's good. Everybody can learn how to do it, so it's nice.

All right, well, let's get the show cracking. We're going to have a front page. Oh, G Herbo will be joining us this morning. Drop on the Clues bombs for G Herbo. He's from Chicago., G Herbo will be joining us this morning. Drop on the Clues bombs for G Herbo.

He's from Chicago. Young G Herbo. They like to call them kids Chirac Savages. G Herbo got good sense, though. G Herbo got good sense. I don't know if they like to call it Chirac anymore. That's what academic calls them, Chirac Savages. Front page news, what are we talking about?

I don't know. We're going to be talking about Delta. They have middle class seats, so it's no more. Well, they have first class and, I guess, coach, but now they have middle class. We'll tell you all about that. Middle class? That sounds crazy. Hillary's odds dropped 13%. We'll tell you all about it. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Now, on Thursday night football, the Falcons beat the Bucs 43-28. Now, Kevin Durant dropped 39 on Westbrook last night. And the Thunder, well, they won 122-96. So, congratulations to KD. Now, let's talk about Hillary's odds now.

Well, they're saying that Hillary Clinton's odds have dropped 13%. The money is still on Hillary Clinton, but her odds are closing in. So that's why it's important to go out and vote. They're saying that Donald Trump has been courting North Carolina, and it's really important for him to win North Carolina. They said that's the state that the presidential race will turn, depending on what happens there. Listen, man, the soul of the country is at stake in y'all playing. You're going to wake up

next week on the knife. Donald Trump going to be president and America going to look like Hillside and Back to the Future 2 after Biff got a hold of that almanac now. And the Ku Klux Klan and David Duke have been endorsing Donald Trump heavily. Yes, they have. They've endorsed Donald Trump. I saw a Karen Sybil post yesterday and I looked it up that Hillary

has an initiative that's going to give $25 billion to HBCUs and I retweeted that and people was like, oh, she'll never do that. And they don't believe that she will do it. But that's, let me tell you how democracy works. She gets in that White House and don't keep promises. We can put her on blast daily for not keeping those promises. Okay. Our voices are loud via social media, via platforms like this. We can make sure that certain things get done. Let's talk about Delta and middle class seats. So now some U.S. airlines are trying to fill.

There's a big difference between when you get a first class seat and economy seat on a plane, especially when you're going long distances. And it costs so much more, like a couple thousand dollars more sometimes. It's just too much of a gap. So now they're doing these premium economy seats, Delta Premium. They've been at that. They've had that already.

They're saying now there's going to be eight seats across each row with two of the outermost seats. They're separated by aisles. And they're each going to have an in-flight entertainment screen, power ports, 38 inches of pitch, which is the distance between the same point on two seats. So that's about six to seven inches of additional leg room. That's more than economy seating. Is that the same thing as Delta Comfort? I feel like it is kind of like Delta Comfort, but I guess this is supposed to be.

Ain't no TVs on Delta Comfort, though, right? Sometimes. Long-distance flights. Those long-distance flights have the TVs. But right now, you also will get a beverage before departure. They didn't used to do that. Oh, a beverage! Not a whole beverage, though!

They didn't used to do that. They, a beverage. Not a whole beverage, though. They didn't used to do that. They only used to do that in first class. And then you get an amenity kit, a premium blanket, and noise-canceling headphones. You get faster check-in and security lines, and you get to board earlier, and you get your baggage earlier. I fly JetBlue, bro. I'm a proud Mosaic member.

Drop one of Clues bombs for JetBlue, damn it. No disrespect to Delta. Delta's cool, too, but I'm a JetBlue type of guy. JetBlue goes where I go. South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina, and LA. And JetBlue has those even more space seats also. Yes, they do. And TVs, a lot of them, you know, now they got Mint and JetBlue, but there's never no pressure

on JetBlue because they don't have classes and sections, okay? You even get your nice, even more leg room and keep it moving. But what's Mint then? Mint is on like longer flights when you're going to the West Coast. So that is a first class. Yeah, that is. That's a little pressure when you're on a mint flight.

You know, nothing too serious. I don't mind even more leg room. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now. Maybe you had a bad morning or a bad night last night.

You want to vent a little bit, call us up right now. The number again is 800-585-1051. Phone lines are wide open. Call us now. Maybe you're upset because these Negroes is capping so hard. All right. Call us up right now. They want to know why you got a 12-car garage.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, yo. This is DMX. You know what makes me mad? When people ask for the truth but can't handle the truth. Now tell them why you mad on The Breakfast Club, bitches. Scott, man, from Queens.

Scott, Queens, tell them why you mad. I work at a hotel, right? Mm-hmm. These homeless people in the hotel. I can't understand the mayor, man. How you got these people in the hotel? They don't sleep at night. In and out all night.

And then in the daytime, they homeless people actually got some shelter? You want them to earn their keep is what you're saying? That's what he's saying. Yeah, yeah. Take a trade or program or something, you know? I bet you one of them homeless ladies, they're staying and they're fine as hell if you take her and clean her up. Oh, my goodness.

Hello, who's this? Keyshawn. Keyshawn, tell them where you're at. Yo, man, my wife is pregnant, man. It's our second child. Man, I haven't had the box in almost like a month, man. Oh, my goodness. How many months is she? You're going to make another baby? Yeah, I mean, listen, I haven't had the box in almost like a month, man. Oh, my goodness. How many months is she?

You're making another baby? Yeah, I mean, listen, this is our second child. And the first child, we almost do, man. Our delivery date is in December. The first baby, it was awesome, man. She was like every day towards the end. This time, I have to sleep in the other room, man. It's bad.

Why is it so bad? Why? I don't know, man. I mean, they say every baby is different, man. But like, our first baby was a girl and now we having a boy. So maybe you got something

to do with the hormones or something, man. But Envy, oh my God, man. I know you got like five kids, man. Have you ever experienced this before? Nah, man. Me and my wife is usually good. Usually when she's pregnant

it's even better. Yeah, that pom-pom do be wetter when she's pregnant. But I'm going to tell you something, brother. Now's the time to cheat. Oh, don't you do it. Now's the time. Don't you do it. It ain't really cheating when she's pregnant, but I'm going to tell you something, brother. Now's the time to cheat. Oh, don't you do it. Now's the time.

Don't you dare. It ain't really cheating when she's pregnant. Nah, yeah, don't you dare. Oh, man. Listen, man, I'm 26, man. I've been married for almost five years, man. I never, I never cheated on my wife. I'm just saying.

Now's the perfect time, man. Don't you do it. She'll understand a little bit more if she catch you. Don't stress her out. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Matt from Ohio, man. Man, why so many penises on the phone this morning? Where the ladies at?

Matt, good morning. Man, I'm mad, y'all. Why? I'm a 29-year-old black young millennial. I'm hearing that none of us are voting. Well, not none, but only about half of y'all. No, not even half. It's very, very low. I was talking to

Simone Sanders the other day. She used to work at Bernie Sanders campaign. She said that the young black youth vote is very, very, very low, like super low. And you know what it all comes down to? What? Responsibility. You know, my mother's always telling me all the time, man, you guys' generation is so irresponsible

and I'm just like, no, we're not, no, we're not. But here we are proving them right. You know what I'm saying? First of all, we ain't voting. Second of all, we ain't wearing condoms. I'm married though. Y'all ain't doing nothing right. Now listen, as far as the second one, that's just not a millennial problem, okay? Alright? Because unprotected sex ain't the safest, but it feels the best.

And yo, I just feel like we all need to go out and vote. Number one, because our ancestors died for our right to vote. And number two, I don't think y'all got any better ideas. Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051 if you need to vote. And number two, I don't think y'all got any better ideas. Tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. That was Riri with Need It Me. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, Chi-Town's own G Herbo will be joining us next hour. Salute to G Herbo. Previously, his name used to be Little Herb.

That's right. You saw him on the freshman cover of XXL Magazine. Yes. You know, by the way, G Herbo probably was top three most requested Breakfast Club interviews for at least the past three years. Absolutely. I mean, every time I go on YouTube, I'm always getting tweets like, yo, when y'all gonna have G Herbo on the show? When y'all gonna have G Herbo on the show?

These kids love G Herbo. Right, so we'll kick with him next hour. I mean, I went to a couple of shows that he did on the East Coast. One in Jersey, one in New York, and I'm gonna say wall-to-wall kids, wall-to-wall people sold out, lying outside, so we'll get to chop it up with him. But we got rumors on the way, Yee?

Yes, we'll talk about a new Michael Jackson movie on the way. Also, the Forbes list of highest paid women in music. Who do you think is number one on that list? Taylor Swift. Okay, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Who has it? On The Breakfast Club. Well, let's talk the top five highest paid women in music for 2016. Now, number five on the list is Beyonce. What?

Beyonce's only five? I was surprised, too. I thought Beyonce was going to be top two easily. She made $54 million. That's a lot of break. You know who number one. But the reason is they said next year she'll finish a lot higher because of the Formation World Tour. Okay.

So that hasn't been counted for this year yet. Drop one of the clues bombs for Beyonce. You know I'm a pinkie. Smith Winfrey knows Carter. That's my last name. Number four on the list goes to Riri Rihanna. Okay. She made $75 million.

That's because, of course, of her music and touring and endorsement deals with Dior, Puma, Samsung, and Stance. I can't believe y'all ain't got Rihanna pregnant. She made $75 million this year and you're still wearing a condom with her? Number three is Madonna. Madonna made $76.5 million. That's because of her Rebel Heart tour. Madonna's still making that kind of money, huh? Yes, she is.

Madonna's huge. Her tour's still selling out. I'd get her pregnant if she could still get pregnant. Number two on the list is Adele. Go ahead. What you gonna say about Adele?

Adele made 80.5. Adele always look pregnant. Million dollars. And she makes most of her money on album sales, actually. Who's the next one? You know who number one is. 25 was the best-selling album

of 2015. That's what we're gonna do. We're gonna act fake surprise like we don't know who number one is. Like how she acts whenselling album of 2015. That's what we're going to do. We're going to act fake surprise, like we don't know who number one is, like how she acts when she wins awards. All right, go ahead. Okay, go ye. Okay, and number one on the list,

Rebecca Black. Really? No, shut up. No, I'm kidding. No. We know who this is. Taylor Swift. Oh, my God, no.

Really, Taylor? No. I didn't see that coming. No way, Taylor. She made 170 million views. I didn't see that coming. No way, Taylor. She made $170 million. Oh, my God. Wow. Who knew?

Taylor never would have thought. Nah. So congratulations to her. She has a huge, that 1989 tour, which made over $250 million. And also she has deals with Keds, Diet Coke, and Apple. I look bored. I am bored. I like some of Taylor Swift's records. I do too. Kanye made her though.

Kanye did make her. Alright, a new Michael Jackson movie is coming to Lifetime. What? We didn't see enough Michael Jackson movies, man. Can I finish? Are the little boys going to get abused in this movie the way Michelle A got abused in her movie?

Now, this movie actually focuses on his later years in life and is based on a book that was written by his former bodyguards. And the book is Remember the Time, Protecting Michael Jackson in His Final Days. I don't want to see that. But the producer of the movie is Susan DePass, who is the former Motown chief who worked for Barry Gordy from the late 60s until the company was sold. She has a great relationship

still with the Jackson family and she was there when the Jackson 5 was discovered. So... I'm not interested. Maybe she'll be consulting with the family. Enough's enough. Sounds like trash. Complete garbage. But it's gonna talk about him and parenting his three young children, dealing with finances.

Garbage. And being, you know, just looking at his kids and everything. Garbage, garbage. I don't want to see that. Just telling you it's coming a lifetime. Okay. Garbage. All right, now why are these fans camping out?

Well, in Brazil, Justin Bieber is coming to town, and people are already lined up. And guess when Justin Bieber is coming? Next week. In five months. Oh, my goodness, no. Unbelievable. I promise you, if you have Revolt, you can see

some fans already have set up some tents. Why can't they just buy tickets and then go to the concert? I don't know. They're camped out five months in advance. Five months? They don't have school? They don't have jobs? Now one fan said, we are here for our idol and our love for him made us do this madness. They don't have parents? They're just doing that for

attention. There's no way. It's impossible. They're not sitting there for five months. So they're saying one of the groups that are camping out in Rio, they're part of a 130 person effort. So they all plan on taking turns waiting in line. Some of them go to school and some of them go to work. Yeah, right. Stop it. For five months they're just trying to get attention. They're hoping

somebody from Justin Bieber's team reaches out and says no, y'all don't have to camp out. Just we'll bring you back. Come on. They're doing it for attention. They can't get tickets? Like you can't buy tickets and just go to the concert or the show. Listen, they're trying to be first on that line. I don't know how this works. First of all, one of them kids that was camping out there is so fat. They don't have internet.

Ticket master. He was kind of large. He was super large. He's right there. He's obese. Look at that fat boy right there. There's no way he's sitting there for five months without going to Burger King. It's impossible.

He's going to do. They're taking turns. All right. And that is your rumor report. Nobody believes do something. They're taking turns. All right. And that is your rumor report. Nobody believes that. I'm Angela Yee. All right. Now, when we come back, G Herbo, Chi-Town's own, will be joining us.

Yes. And apologies to our affiliates, Jammin' 94.5 Boston. They tweeted out a picture and said G Herbo on the Breakfast Club AM next. And they put out a picture of Mr. Flawless. Did they? Yeah. I don't know how you confused G Herbo and Mr. Flawless. It's okay, though, guys.

We'll get it right. Oh, my goodness. Sorry. All right, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's Beyonce with Sorry. It's Friday! It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. That was Riri Drake. Too good. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angelique. Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Got a special guest in the building.

This dude has actually probably been one of the most requested guests for about two years. G Herbo. Yo. What's good, bro? Oh, man. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it, man. What you got on a White Sox hat? I ain't gonna lie, I got on a White Sox hat because it wasn't early enough

to go get a Cubs hat. I couldn't go get a Cubs hat, man. That's all I'm telling you. Like, literally. But I thought in Chicago you got to pick sides. Like, you got to either be a White Sox or a Cubs fan.

Officially, like, I'm a that hard White Sox fan, but I still got to support the Cubs because it's Chicago, and I've never been to a baseball game in my life. Like, my first baseball game was a Cubs game,

and it was the World Series. Yeah, it was exciting. I had a good time, so I gotta, you know what I'm saying? I gotta rock with the Cubs. Like, from that point on, I'm gonna be a Cubs fan and a White Sox fan.

I don't even know the truth. Now, what part of Chicago are you from? Which side? I'm from the east side of Chicago, Saturday Night Street. Now, you didn't know

herb was a bad term in New York. Nah. That's a sucker. I just learned that. When I just got out here, I just learned early 90s Right. I was born in 95 How did that even become a bad? Why we call himself that but his name because he was born in 95 he's not old like us

I don't even know if my dad when I go home or, I'll ask my dad, like, did Nick used to play with your name? I'm going to ask him because that's his name, too, you know, so I don't know. Okay, he's a junior. I'm the third. My grandfather named Herbert, too. Your pops from Chicago, too? Yeah, my pops from Chicago, too. He probably killed people, so they ain't play with him.

Nah, I don't know. I ain't know. Pops wasn't never nothing to play with anyway, so I don't know. I ain't never heard it. He would have told me, like, I ain't never heard that till I came out here, bro. That's crazy. Why is Chicago so violent, man? Because y'all just had, like, the worst weekend of the year,

but it's already been 600 murders this year. Like, why is it so violent? It's misguidedness. You know, like, everybody all over the place. Like, literally, even the street dudes. It was once a point in time where street dudes had morals and certain principles and think and move a certain way. Like, they don't have that no more. You know what I'm saying?

Like, the shorties don't have morals in life. Like, when I was growing up, we had community centers to go to, you know what I'm saying? Youth centers, AAU programs. We had something to occupy our time. The kids don't have that no more. And they just all over the place like cowboys, and everybody know if you're a real street dude, that's not the way to be.

Like, every street dude think you use their head to maneuver and survive the streets. You have to be a thinker. Nobody in Chicago using their brain right now, so that's why it's so crazy. Now, do artists get along? Do you all get along? I know you grew up with Bibi, but Sosa or Durr,

did y'all all get along? Yeah, like, there never been no bad blood between any of us in the city like me and bibby like you said we grew up together like all our life like that's my brother you feel me but even with sosa dirk like we still got mutual people we're not from the same area but we got mutual people we care about like we keep it cordial even enough when i see him that's my brother we work together all types like even with with ke with Keith, with Sosa, he ain't been to the crib in years, but it ain't no bad blood. If he came home and capitalized off being in the city, everybody going to show him love.

Now, you can go back to the city. You can perform in the city because I know sometimes they don't want those artists back in the city. Like T. Keith can't perform. Yeah, like Keith or Dirk even. Yeah, they blackball them. You know what I'm saying? When you get to a certain point,

it's just a dark cloud that follow you in Chicago, you know? When they label you, it's hard to get that label off, and I'm just blessed that I never let anybody label me like, no, that's her, keep them away. It was never that with me, you know what I'm saying? So I can't really speak on nobody else's situation. I don't know why it's like that. I'm just blessed. It never happened to me. Like, I can

still perform at the crib, or I don't have a certain label where they're like, no, just keep him away from you. You feel me? But did you move out the crib? Did you move away from Chicago? Um, where it's going down at, you know, like the inner city. You feel me? But I'm still in Chicago. Everybody says you gotta leave Chicago in order

to be successful if you're from Chicago. I agree. I don't even say you have to leave because I still want to be in my city and I want to capitalize off of it. I want to own my city, like go and do stuff for my community, you know what I'm saying? For the youth, not for profit, work with certain land, you know what I'm saying? Merge with landscaping companies to, you know what I'm saying? Buy, own my neighborhood to create other opportunities. But I still feel like what you were saying is right

because you just have to learn and move a certain way. Even if you're a street dude, you can't have the same street mentality. You can't spend the same amount of time you spent in the streets if you're trying to do something else with your life. I like what you said about how the kids aren't thinking because I'm like, well, what do they want then? Because back in the day when stuff used to go down

in our generation, it was for money. Right. Like literally, it was always about some bread. But I understand what you're saying about there not being

enough things for people to do as far as activities and places to go and anything to keep you off the street. Right. So what do the kids

want on the street? If they ain't getting money, why are they just killing each other? They want a name. They morals are all it's backwards, bro. Like, no, you're absolutely right it was for money you know i'm saying even when i'm not i'm only 21 bro when i was in the streets it was about territory money and progress and you

know i'm saying doing stuff for your family still having morals at the end of the day you know like with the kids they don't even know how to hustle they don't know how to do nothing you know i'm saying they don't even i feel like in order to make a difference in the city, they need somebody that they feel like genuinely care about them. You know what I'm saying? For stuff that provides stuff for them to do. Like, literally, we were still the roughest kids in the neighborhood. The toughest, roughest kids in the neighborhood you can't even play with.

You say the wrong thing that one of us might knock you out, but we still go to summer camp with our youth center and we still go to six flags whenever we had the chance growing up kids don't have that no more you know and a lot of times they don't even want to choose the path that they're going down they're being followers you know like when i went down that path that was the path i wanted for myself i understood everything that came with that path kids don't really understand that it's only two things that came with that path. Kids don't really understand that. It's only two things that come with the streets.

Jail or death. Jail or death. And you got to understand that I was ready for jail or death at any moment, even being a shorty. When did you say, okay, let me get out of the street and really focus on my career in music? I would say for like the past year and a half, two years, I've just been super focused. And I had to, nobody drilled it in my head. I had to make that step, that decision on my own. Because I'm still on.

Yeah, like. You said you had the song with Nicki. You were still outside in the street. Yeah, like, when I had the song with Nicki, I was still outside on the block every day. You feel me? Like, it wasn't even, I didn't really realize the step that I needed to take. It was me, you know what I'm saying? I had to take that extra step. I didn't realize that you step that I needed to take. It was me, you know what I'm saying?

I had to take that extra step. I didn't realize that you can't be 50-50. You can't be 80-20. You have to be 100%. Absolutely. You know what I'm saying? And I had to understand. I had to go through certain loopholes in life

and really, you know what I'm saying, learn the experience, learn the curves. Now, she talked about the song with Nicki. Now, when they reached out to you, you guys actually hung up on them a couple times. No, literally, like, I promise, I didn't even know. Like, it was a Safari call, you feel me, and my manager at the time.

I don't blame you for hanging up on them. It was like... Shut up, man. It was like 3 in the morning. We was in the studio, and I don't know, like, what the exact words was, but basically, like, Nicki... He was speaking in passwords?

Man, I don't know what he was speaking in. I don't know, like, he probably was, I ain't even gonna lie, like, but literally, we like, man, hell no, this ain't Nikki calling us at three in the morning, we in the studio, somebody trying to get up with me, you feel me, like, hell no, my manager hung up at the time, it just came back around probably two days later, three days later, like, what you doing, shorty, like, you literally, like, you the president? You that hard to get up with? And we realized it was her.

She could have DM'd you or something. It was a month. It was a Monday. She had me in L.A. like that Thursday or Friday. Like, seriously, she wasn't even playing around. Like, we ain't finna play with you. Like, she probably looking like, man, this little boy gonna get lost in the salt somewhere.

Nikki throws a lot of alley-oops. She don't get credit for them. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I get credit whenever credit do. Like, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I get credit whenever credit do. Like, for cosigns, anything. Like, I try to be

as humble as possible. You know what I'm saying? Like, ain't no egos in music. All right, we got more with G Herbo when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was old boy Cameron. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have G Herbo in the building from Chi-Town. When young men know the consequences of the street,

why are they glorified in the music then? Because they don't understand. Literally, people glorify through the music because they don't understand it, bro. Literally, they haven't been through the situations where they lost five homies or five people that was close to them that they shook their hand and laughed with and smoked with and joked with every day all within a two-month radius.

You know, like four people, four deaths close to you. You never hear nobody waiting outside your mother, your grandmother crib trying to kill you. And kill your mama and grandma. And kill your mother and grandma if need kill your mother and grandma, if need be. You know what I'm saying? Like, literally, I feel like a lot of people, they don't even know what they signed up for.

Like, you have to be willing to die or go to jail for 100 years if that's the lane that you're stepping in. You have to understand that whether you're 15, 16, you got to think like a man. You know what I'm saying? Like, a lot of people don't think like a man you know i'm saying like a lot of people don't think like that they want the glory of it say oh yeah i'm fresh every day i got my gun on me but that's not cool like every day i had to have my gun on me i ain't want it i ain't

want to have it on me you feel me like literally you know i'm saying and you just got to understand what come with a lot of people don't understand that that's why they glorify no street dude ever glorifies what they've done you know i'm saying because it's a lot of bad that come with it. A lot of people don't understand that. That's why they glorify it. No street dude ever glorifies what they've done, you know what I'm saying? Because it's a lot of bad shit that come with it. I cried a lot of nights being in the streets. Not only because of deaths, just me not like, what's

going on? My mother crying. If I see my mother cry, that's going to make me cry. You feel me? That's what come with being in the streets, and a lot of people don't understand it. And I feel like if you could be anything in life, why choose the streets? A lot of people who are in the streets, that's all they got.

They don't have nothing else to choose from but the streets. A lot of people have everything else to choose from and choose the streets, and those people that end up with the short end of the stick, they end up dead for no reason and jailed for the rest of their life and not understanding. Those are people that snitch.

When you in the streets, you got to be willing to go do 20, 30, 40 years for your brother even though you know he did wrong. You ain't had nothing to do with it. You got to be willing to make that sacrifice in the streets. And if you're not willing to make that sacrifice, don't have nothing to do with it because that's what come with it. Now, are you voting? Honestly, and I'm going to tell you why I'm not voting.

If we don't take that extra step to uplift everybody, you know what I'm saying, as a whole in the community and really get the youth and the misguided on the same accord to really show the world that we can come as one and we not animals, it's nothing that Trump or Hillary could do for us because Obama would have did it already. You know what I'm saying? Like, it's only so much that they could do.

They not in the midst of it. They don't understand where we come from. Obama is from Chicago. He don't understand me as a kid or as a street dude. He don't understand me. Hillary don't understand me. He don't understand any of us or nothing that's going on. So I feel like if people like me or any leaders in the community, any voice,

don't take that extra step to uplift everybody, you know what I'm saying, and show the kids somebody actually care about you, it's something for you to do with your time. Because I know you want something else to do with your time. You just don't know how to articulate it or really say, I want something else to do with my time because you following this guy and that guy. You know what I'm saying? Really just, if it's not stuff like that going on,

it's nothing Hillary could do for us, nothing Trump could do for us. So that's why I feel like I'm not voting because even if I vote, if everybody vote right now and Hillary Clinton win, Trump out the way. He out of the way. If we don't think a certain way with certain morals and principles and values of life and self-respect

as a whole, as a people, it's nothing nobody could do for us. A president, a senator, a governor. You even think on a local level? Because like all those schools and stuff you talk about that aren't there no more, like direct centers and stuff. Those are the guys that fund those things.

On a local level, yeah, it's important to vote? On a local level, yeah, it's important to vote, but I'm talking about presidency. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't feel like that's relevant. On a local level, yeah, it's definitely important

to vote for politicians and certain judges. You know what I'm saying? That's definitely important. I believe in that. But as far as the outside world, because if you're a Republican or a Democrat,

being the president, you have to abide by certain laws and make certain decisions for your life. And even if it affects the poverty, you know what I'm saying, the poor, the people living in poverty more than anything, they gonna make that decision. They not gonna think twice about us. So we need

to think twice about us because they not. So it don't matter if we vote for whoever. If we not trying to uplift each other as a whole, there's nothing nobody can do with us. And you're absolutely right. Like as far as politicians, judges, that kind of thing, that kind of stuff on a local level. Yeah, school

superintendents. Yeah, that's important. But I feel like even if we do that, if the people mindset is not right the way it need to be, that's not even going to help us. Like nobody, nobody's not going to listen to the next politician or the next police officer or anything.

Like it has to be someone in the midst of it. It has to be someone in front of struggle. I feel like everybody just got to come on the same page. Everybody got to think positive. You know, I had a lot to frown and a lot to cry about. So I try to think positive as much as possible. I try to smile as much as possible.

And I try to motivate people. You talk about that in your music? Yeah, yeah. Of course. Like, literally. I love when I go through my comments on Instagram and people say, Herb, you changed my life when you dropped this song. I was going through some deep shit.

Like, my brother died or my grandmother died, and I listened to your music, and it got me through it. Literally, you know what I'm saying? Like, I love seeing that. So that's why when I go back on the road and when I go on my next tour, I'm going to start just doing 30-minute moderations to get intimate with my fans. I thought that was dope when you said that.

You know what I'm saying? I'm going to really want to start doing that. You know what I'm saying? Give them some shows.? Give them shows. Give them shows. Hell yeah, and doing non-for-profit shit. Really, like, I'm going to be the one that go say, oh, man, this community center was closed.

We used to hang out when we was kids. Open this back up. The kids need that. Like, 12, 13-year-olds, they don't have nothing to do with their time. They smoking cigarettes. It's not beneficial to them or their family. Like, still, with me being in the streets risking my life every day, I still thought about my mama and my little sister and my grandma.

You know what I'm saying? Like, kids don't. Your mother been taking care of you, loving you all your life, had everything in your life planned out for you, but you want to disrespect her because you think it's cool. Because you think it's cool. I talk to my fans. I'm a humble dude.

Like, I get my fans my number and let them FaceTime me. You feel me? Like, literally, oh, man, gang, and they got straight A's. You play basketball. Like, you know what I'm saying? And I'm telling them, like, I really tell them, like, bro, I ain't going to answer my phone for you. I ain't fucking with you if you don't listen to your mama

and you don't got straight A's. And I literally talk to his mama. His mama say, he been listening. He been on top of top of his you feel me like i literally i ain't going with you that's not cool bro you not me you don't need to live the life that i live you go to school you got everything in your life happening on a positive level so you don't need to be nowhere near negativity like you don't even need to worry about who with***ing with you in high school, who you cool with. Like, that's irrelevant. You know what I'm saying?

I learned that as a kid. My dad always used to tell me, like, never pay attention to what the next man say or don't care about who your friend. Just be a leader. He told me that early on, and I ain't really understand it as much as I do now. Like, I didn't understand when he said,

man, a lot of people that you know and meet in high school and grammar school, you never gonna see again in your life. I used to get upset when he said that because they a lot of people that you know and meet in high school and grammar school, you're never going to see again in your life. I used to get upset when he said that because they were some of my closest friends in grammar school. It's the truth, though. But it's the truth. Like, literally, there's so many people that I was cool with and don't remember. I don't even see them anymore.

And it's not really me changing or nothing like that. Before I even had a name for myself, it was just, you know, you grow. You grow up. You 21 and you talking like that, and I feel like that's what kids need to hear. I saw Lil Wayne in that video that he pull out his rag. I'm a gangbanger. I'm committed to this.

I'm like, bro, you been rapping for 20 years. Like, why even put that out there? So I like to hear young men like you talk like that because you're the guy that kids are really listening to. Yeah, exactly. And I am what I am. Everybody know I am what I am. You know what I'm saying?

Like, I don't have to parade that. You feel me? Like, I never, ever, ever say I want to go back and change this about my life. Or I want to go back and not make this decision. You feel me? Because everything that ever happened in my life made me the man I am today. You know what I'm saying? And I don't care who judge me and say, oh, Herb ass soft.

He a punk now. I don't care. My mama good. My oh, Herb ass soft. He a punk now. I don't care. My mama good. My little sister good. You know what I'm saying? I don't have to worry about the same shit I had to worry about. I can move a certain type of way now because my crib downtown and my mama crib in the suburbs. I don't got to look behind my back going in the house no more.

I remember walking in the house with my gun in my hand, out walking in through my mama hallway, all the lights off. I live with my grandmother, but walking in through my mama's hallway, all the lights off. I live with my grandmother, but she live in the enemy's neighborhood. People trying to kill me on the same block that my grandmother live on. This is my house. I have to go here every night.

So I remember coming from that. You know what I'm saying? Who wants to live like that? All right, we got more with G Herbo. When we come back, keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Hold Up Beyoncé. Morning, everybody. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Hold Up Beyonce.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Chi-Town's own G Herbo is in the building. Yee? Did your parents think you would be successful as an artist? Honestly, nah.

I was never trying to be an artist or trying to be a rapper growing up. Literally, my mom and my aunt they ain't know what to do with me. I was getting locked up. Your pops around? Yeah, my mom and dad been together.

My mom was 16. My dad was 19. They been together ever since. You know what I'm saying? Like, I grew up in a two-parent household. Even then, like,

they ain't know how to control me because I'm going to go out and make my decisions on my own. Like, the man that I am now is because I made myself that man. Nobody can take credit for anything that I am today.

Not my mother, my father, nobody. I went out and made those decisions and learned life on my own. That's a fact. You made a conscious choice to say, nah, this is what I'm going to do. They can tell you all day, but if you don't listen, it don't mean anything. Right, yeah, exactly. Even when I wasn't trying to be aroused, it's literally in the streets. That's what I cared about.

I loved being in the streets. That's what I cared about. I loved being in the streets I love my brothers. I love everything that was going on in my life when I was 14 15 16 I accepted it, you know and it was nothing that my mother or father could tell me because I knew like at Any moment like the people that I was around were willing to die for me You know I'm saying baby willing to die for me. I'm ready that I'm willing to die for baby His brothers willing to die for me, you know, everybody that's um that I'm around is willing to die for me. I'm willing to die for baby. His brother's willing to die for me. You know what I'm saying?

Everybody that I'm around is willing to die for me, you know, and my mother don't understand that. It's just different growing up, and we really became products of our environment. We used to play basketball every single day, literally every day. That's what we did. Play, eat, sleep, wake up, play basketball. You know what I'm saying? Like, we was never trying to be no street dudes.

We ain't never say, oh, let's go buy some guns and put them on our waist. You know, we just became products of our environment. Other kids, they saying, oh, let's go buy some guns and put them on our waist. That's the difference between us and them. You feel me? So it was basically for y'all more of a survival thing?

Yeah, a survival thing. Like, literally, you can't knock what's going on in Chicago. Like, literally, you never had, you never been a 15-year-old and a 24-year-old is trying to kill you. That's the harsh reality of what's going on in Chicago. And nobody could do anything about it besides us. We the only people that can come and uplift each other as a whole in the community. How do we cut that down? Really cutting it down is the small step, bro.

Like, really, us coming together and talking to the youth. If this not for you, if you never had to choose from one or two little options, like, I'm going to just give y'all a scenario. Say, for instance, it's a 10-year-old kid, 12, and all you have in life is your older brother who's 19, and your mother is hooked on drugs. You don't even know your father. You've probably seen your father twice in your whole life.

Say, for instance, your brother, he in the gang. You've probably seen your father twice in your whole life. Say for instance, your brother, he in the gang, he out of school, but he makes sure you straight. You eat every morning, every night, every afternoon.

He makes sure you got school clothes, this, that, and the third. You know what I'm saying? And you a good kid. You got all A's and B's. All you know is your brother take care of you. And your brother

a ruthless killer in the streets. But you know that's the only person in life that care about you. And say for instance, your brother get murdered right in your face because there's no morals in the streets but you know that's the only person in life that care about you and say for instance your brother get murdered right in your face because there's no morals in the streets kill your brother in your face and then now what you're gonna do if you jump out in the streets and adapt to your environment how can they blame you how can somebody really blame you and they're not doing anything to benefit the hood you know i'm saying

like i don't know if everybody else understand it but i'm willing to make that extra step i'm willing to talk to kids because I can look in their eyes and tell this life is not for you. You don't want to be this. You're just doing this because you're a follower. You get what I'm saying? You got an interesting perspective. What about the kid who does want to go to school

and does have a plan to get out to Chicago, but they might have to carry their gun just to make it for the next five years. Absolutely. And you can't knock that kid because he is adapting to his environment. You know what I'm saying? He might want to be an architect, a doctor,

but he may have the wrong last name. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The wrong last name. He may be related to the wrong person, and he have to move like that. And if the police catch him with that gun on him, he is that. Yeah. You're the same as your cousins. You're the same as your brothers, but you don't understand.

I'm just trying to go to school every day, but I know if these dudes see me and they know that I'm his little brother, they gonna kill me for no reason. That's an ill perspective. That's the harsh reality of being in Chicago, and you have to really understand it. We not animals. We not beasts. We not demons. We just

products of our environment. So you have predators and you just have people who play in defense. Right. You have people who play in defense. All my life grew up playing defense. How do these people treat you now, seeing you on the Freshman XXL cover, seeing you doing your press runs? Are people happy? Yes, you made it

supportive. Yeah, I feel like I got a crazy support system right now. I feel like everybody rooting for me, and that's only because they see, like, I just grew this mindset or just gained this mindset recently. Like, people know that boy had all the opportunity. He had a song with Nicki Minaj.

He was still on Sandy Knife with a gun on his waist. You feel me? Like, people see that growth. They happy to see that. You know what I'm saying? When it's genuine, nobody want to see you fail. Nobody want to see you fail

when they know you come from failure. You've been failing all your life. So when you winning now, everybody should cheer you on. You know, like, literally,

it's no bad blood in my body, not a hating bone in my body. I just saw Chance the Rapper on the billboard in Times Square with a Kenzo H&M collab.

It made me happy. Me and my camera, it made us happy to see that. Just to see the possibilities of what can come from working hard and really coming from nothing. Chance is from Chicago. He had the same eyes against him as me. Whether we

grew up different or not, just being in Chicago, you could be a politician's son, you could be Obama's son and be at the wrong place at the wrong time, you know what I'm saying? So he had the same eyes that I had against me, you feel me? So when I see stuff like that, it makes me happy. What's Chicago sound? Because it's so diverse. You got Chance, you got Kanye, you got Jude, and you got the Kings.

Like, what is Chicago's actual sound? You got Dreezy. Yeah, you got Dreezy, you got Vic Mensa, you know what I'm saying? You got a bunch of different sounds and styles. I would say the Chicago style, rounded in one word, is just unique, you know what I'm saying? Everybody was riding the whole drill wave

for, you know what I'm saying, so long it was cool, but I came out really, literally rapping about my life. That was all I but I came out really literally rapping about my life. That was all I knew. Some people considered it a drill. Some people didn't. It was just my life. That's what I knew. I was rapping about the reality of me waking up, leaving out the house.

That was all I knew. With Chance, he rap about what he knows. Vic Mensa, he raps about what he knows. We've never been through the same situations, but he rap about what he knows. Vic Mensa, he raps about what he knows. You know what I'm saying? We never been through the same situations, but he rap about Chicago from his perspective. I rap about Chicago from my perspective and so on and so forth. Even Dreezy, well, being a girl,

she rap about her growing up in Chicago from her perspective. You know what I'm saying? Being a female in Chicago is still different. Girls lose their life in Chicago just for being in a car with the wrong dude. They don't even hit dude. We appreciate you joining us. G Herbo. G Herbo.

Yeah, man. Thank you for coming through. I ain't gonna lie. I've been looking forward to the Breakfast Club since day one, man. Day zero, you know? So me being here, I'm just humbled. You know, like...

He was 15 when we started. When you think about it. Yeah. This could have happened a while ago because people didn't really ask for you since you were little. Not even asking. It's a long time. Timing is everything.

It's perfect timing. When I seen you perform in Jersey, when I seen you come out to Jersey, I was surprised. Like, I haven't seen Jersey that packed in a long time. I mean, wall to wall. I love Jersey, bro. It's crazy. My first time in Jersey, it was like 200 girls in my hotel lobby. Like, literally.

How many condoms? They tried to put us out. If it was 200 females, it might have been probably about 50 condoms. Good ratio. About 50 condoms. There you have it. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

The Breakfast Club. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, you know, Beyonce performed at the Country Music

Awards. She did Daddy Lessons with the Dixie Chicks. And people were in an uproar that Beyonce was even performing at the Country Music Awards. One post said, and they made all these Facebook pages. What did you think about Beyoncé performing? What do you think of the Beyoncé and Dixie Chicks performances for people to answer? There were thousands of people commenting. One person said, figures they would pair up.

One who has no respect for the American military. And another who has no respect for the American law enforcement. A shame they would be allowed to perform at the CMAs at all. So they was mad at Beyonce because they feel like Beyonce's anti-police? Law enforcement. Oh, so it wasn't because she was black? And they also feel like she's not country and she's not welcome because she's not a country music artist.

One person said she does not belong. When have they ever invited any country singer to their BET Awards? Never. Stop it. Wow. So basically the country fans treated Beyonce the way hip-hop fans treat Iggy Azalea and every other white artist. Basically. Really?

White rap artist. Yes. Come on. Stop it. Come on. Can I just be honest for a second? We do the same thing when it's white artists at hip-hop shows. Yes, we do.

She gets nominated for awards. She went platinum and sold lots of records and gets played on a radio station. And social media still goes in. So, yeah. Social media still goes in. All right, well, one person said, She is a Texan. She is country from Houston.

Let's not judge or cast stones. Our country roots go far back, and a bunch of musicians we look up to have a lot of old cheating stories that go into jail, and the list goes on. We are human. No one is perfect. I'm excited to see what our Texas girl

will show to CMT and the world. God bless and cast no stones. Well, here's a little snippet of their performance together. They sound tired, but they don't sound haggard. They got money, but they don't have cash. They got jewelry, but they don't have hay. I think, I think, I think, I think, I think.

My daddy wants me, but I'm in love with you. He's a baby girl, he's playing you. Sound good to you? No, it doesn't actually. Because you know the Dixie Chicks have been covering this song when they perform already anyway because it has a bit of a country feel to it. That's all daddy's lessons, man. From Lemonade.

Listen, Beyonce is great. I'm a Pinkett Smith, my friend knows Carter, but even she can't make country music sound good. Country music's so trash. Well, yesterday a number of media outlets were accused of removing all the Beyonce performance clips and getting rid of everything off of social media, so on and so forth. But the CMA Awards denied all of that.

They put up a statement. They said the performance clip is online. And they did, however, admit to removing a short promotional clip. They said that's because it was not approved. So they removed it prior to the broadcast. Only two country songs I like. That's You Gotta Know in the Hole, Know in the Foam. The Gambler.

And Sweet Home Alabama. Those are like the two classic ones that everybody knows. That's because I like the movie Sweet Home Alabama. That's not country music? Okay, well. That's a rock song. All right, well, country's trash then. It's only trash to you, man.

Country's trash. I stand on what I said the first time. Okay, Lil Wayne was so upset about his Nightline interview, he tried to get them to pull it before it aired. We told you before that he just kind of blacked out because Lindsay Davis, the interviewer, talked about his daughter and asked questions that were not pre-approved.

Well, they're saying he got so agitated that he just blasted the Black Lives Matter movement. He didn't care what he was saying. Then he went to his publicist to get the interview pulled. The publicist was not able to do that, and that's when he fired his publicist. Lil Wayne should fire himself, okay? Because all that energy that he was upset about should have been directed to that lady if she made comments about his daughter or whatever.

It had nothing to do with the Black Lives Matter movement. But I still don't understand how you can call women bitches and hoes in your music for years but then get mad if somebody asks about it. Ask about your daughter being called a bitch and a hoe. Now ABC News is saying that nothing was pre-approved with Lil Wayne's camp and they said when it came to the questions and the topics of the interview nothing was off limits.

Shaquille O'Neal did an interview with Esquire Magazine and people were talking about some of his comments. They asked him about him having respect and admiration for the police and they said what about bridging that divide between police and communities? And Shaq responded, one way to bridge the divide is for the media not to portray it as all. All police ain't bad, just like all athletes ain't bad, just like all guys in your line of business ain't bad.

We all have the letter of the law to follow. And if you don't follow that, it shouldn't always be a reflection of who you work for or who you're with. Are there some bad policemen? Of course, guaranteed there are, and hopefully they're tried and brought to justice but then he says when he gets stopped by the cops i'm not worried it has nothing to do with being shack you know why i show respect yes sir no sir that's how i was taught i was raised by a drill sergeant and that's who i am doesn't matter if it's a black guy white guy whatever i'm

not going to make it uncomfortable for you because i don't want it uncomfortable for me there's not going to be any talking back. None of that. That means nothing. You can still get shot. You can do all those things and still get shot. Why are you talking? Oh, you still got them damn grills in your mouth? Yes, I do. I know. He's extra lispy. Extra lispy. I don't like y'all lisp shaming me this morning.

Take them damn grills out. You shame everyone for every other reason. We can lisp shame you. Don't lisp shame me. I don't even know what that means. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. Alright, thank you, Ms. Yee. Charlamagne! Yes. We give that donkey to you. We would like for Melania Trump to come to the front of the congregation.

We'd like to have a world winner this morning, please. Who that is? That's Donald Trump's wife. Alright, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day, I'm a Democrat. So being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey, he's Donkey of the Day.

The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one. Let me take my bottom grill out to do this donkey. If I spit all over my computer. Okay. Now, donkey of the day for Friday, November 4th goes to Melania Trump. Okay, now Melania Trump gave her first solo speech since the Republican National Convention this summer. You remember that speech, right, where she ripped off, stole, and plagiarized parts of First Lady Michelle Obama's 2008 Democratic National Convention speech.

But Melania Trump was back out there, and she was laying out some of the things she plans to do if she becomes First Lady. And she says one of the things she really wants to do is improve a social media culture that has gotten too mean and too tough. She says social media is riddled with insults based on looks and intelligence. Melania Trump, Donald Trump's wife, the woman whose body is a hint of orange because the man she goes to sleep with at night is the color of a tangerine. Donald Trump's wife wants people to stop being mean and rude to other people on social media. It has to be a word stronger than irony to describe this situation. Let's hear what melania trump had to say now social media is a centerpiece of our lives it can be a useful tour for connection

and communication but like anything that is powerful it can have a bad side as adults many of us are able to handle mean words even lies lies. Children and teenagers can be fragile. They are hurt when they are made fun of. This makes their life hard and can force them to hide and retreat. It is never okay when a 12-year-old girl or boy is mocked, bullied, or attacked when it's done by someone

with no name hiding on the internet. We must find better ways to honor and support the basic goodness of our children, especially in social media. It will be one of the main focuses of my work if I'm privileged enough to become your first lady. Could somebody please send Melania Trump the article the Upshot posted in the New York Post titled the 282 people. 282 people. 282 people, places, and things.

Donald Trump is insulting on Twitter. A complete list. Your husband is insulting 282 people via social media, but you want people to stop being bullied on social media. I guess it's okay to bully everybody but kids. I couldn't read all of Donald Trump's tweets insulting people via social media unless I dedicated the whole four hours of the Breakfast Club to it, and we would have to cut

all the Drake songs and commercials and just talk straight for four hours to get through all 282 of these tweets, but let me just read a few highlights. I really don't even know where to start. Remember when Donald Trump went on a Twitter rant at 3 in the morning against former Miss Universe

Alicia Machado, where he called her disgusting and a con and directed his followers to check out a non-existent sex tape with a young lady? He tweeted Chris Starwalt. I think that's how you pronounce his name. He's an editor at Fox News. He called him one of the dumbest political pundits on TV,

called him a dope and a really dumb puppet. He tweeted that Michael Nutter, former mayor of Philadelphia, is a crude dope, says he's doing a terrible job, said he's a lowlife. He tweeted Elizabeth Warren, called her goofy, a fraud. Hillary Clinton's flunky, has a career based on a lie, weak and ineffective, phony Native American heritage. Called her a lowlife, called her Pocahontas.

He tweeted Ariana Huff and said she's unattractive both inside and out, and he fully understands why her husband left her for a man. He tweeted that while Bette Midler is a completely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct. Donald Trump once tweeted

26,000 unreported sexual assaults in the military, only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men and women together? For the record, Donald, men and women can congregate together without any rapes occurring. But that's not the point. The point is, Melania

Trump, if you want to work on bullying and people insulting others on social media, be the change you want to see in the world and encourage your husband to delete all his social media accounts. Please give Melania Trump the biggest hee-haw, please. Okay. All right. I'm going to put my girl back in. All right.

Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Now, when we come back, it's Friday, so you know what that means. It's Freaky, Freaky, Freaky Friday. And today's Freaky, Freaky Friday situation, I'm going to call it a situation. We're doing celebrity smashes. We're doing that again? Why are we doing this? This always causes a lot of issues.

I really don't know much about football, so I don't even know what position he played, honestly, because I didn't even know who he was when I first met him because I don't know much about football, so I don't know what position he played, honestly,

because I didn't even know who he was when I first met him because I don't watch football. But he was fine. He was fine. Yes. Tall, chocolate. I met him at the – I was in L.A. I was at the airport, and, well, my flight was delayed,

and I just seen him walking, and I seen people following him, so I'm like, okay, well, he must be somebody. So I go get me some food. And then he's in there getting food, too. So I kind of make myself look like I'm looking at him. And so he comes over. He asks, like, you know, what's my name and everything like that. And he gets me some food.

You deserved it, even though you called him and put his ass on blast on the radio. She didn't say his name. She didn't say who it was. Hello, who's this? That's so obvious. Hello. Hello. How you doing? Hey, we're talking Celebrity Smashes. Give me a hint of who you were with and what happened. Okay, he's an actor. Okay.

He does sing a little bit, but he's more on the acting side, and he's from New York. So basically, I was in a relationship. Oh, God. So easy. Would you let her talk? Go ahead. I was in a four-year relationship. It was a really unhealthy,

unsafe relationship, and we just happened to start DMing each other, and believe it or not, that helped me get over my relationship. What, DMing other dudes? No, DMing a celebrity. This one guy okay so what happened you guys after DMing you guys decided to meet up? We did we actually met up in the south um I was going out there to like just, just take a break, and he just happened to be working out there.

Okay. And then we met up, like, twice. And had sex? The second time, yes. Okay. And how was it? It wasn't bad. You guys are so rude.

That was freaky, freaky, freaky Friday. That was wrong. Somebody's going to get shot. Oh, my goodness. All right. Y'all ain't going to be's going to get shot. Oh, my goodness. All right. Y'all ain't going to be happy until somebody gets shot. Why?

Everybody's fine. By the way, all you celebrities out there that's having sex with groupies, just make sure you have groupies. Make sure you have sex with them in No Advance by 21 Savage, okay? That is the greatest song

to make love to a groupie, too. What rumors we get into, Yee? We'll talk about Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill. Seems like, once again, they might be going through some relationship issues. I don't know. Just from reading their Instagram comments, maybe not. Okay.

We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. The Rumor Report. Angela Ye. It's The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee.

It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Election Day is on Tuesday, and Pharrell recently sat down with Variety and talked about why you should vote for Hillary Clinton. Here's what he said. It's crazy the men that say some of the things that they say and do some of the things that they do. They forget how much women have to carry, including their behinds when they're in their stomachs. If all the women in this nation decided to vote

and support the first female candidate, there'd be nothing to worry about. Because I'm like, look, y'all don't recognize you being, there's a gender bias there, man. Yes, she's a female, but she don't lie no more than any other politician does. It is time to have women have their light in the sunshine with no shade.

Metaphorically and literally. Yeah, I mean, it's amazing that the narrative of her being a woman hasn't dominated this whole campaign cycle because I remember when Barack was running for president, him being black was definitely the narrative. Her being a woman is not the narrative at all. And I don't

understand why not because, you know. She's a woman. It's a historic moment in our country. That's how you feel about it. It would be first for all of us. Alright, Nicki Minaj. Yesterday, when we were ending the show, you guys were talking about Nicki Minaj, what's going on, or her and Meek going through it. All of that is because Nicki Minaj had posted

a meme on her Instagram. It said, never help an ungrateful person get on their feet. It's like telling a wolf that you're a sheep, right? And Meek Mill responded to that. He said, that's why I made sure I stand on my own and was emmed up when I met you. And then Meek Mill posted his own meme. He said, some of y'all need to learn how to enjoy your man's

company instead of picking fights with him 24-7. Oh yeah, they go back and forth. Be lit and not in misery. I just want to win and ball with my lady, not be drilled. Which, you know, in ball with my lady, not be drilled. Which, you know, that's still his lady at the end of the day, whatever they're going through. Now, Nicki Minaj then posted, he posted a picture with his dad,

Meek Mill did, and he said, don't act like you played a part in nothing I got going on when I'm doing my thing, because most likely I had a bag before I met most of you industry cats. When it was time to crucify me, you couldn't really find nobody speaking on my behalf except my real ones. Everybody remain quiet. Shout out to the ones that stayed down. Thank you for your support.

If you rocking with me, RIP Daddy. I know my dad and family think I'm the ish. I mean, that definitely wasn't about Nicki. Because if you listen to the Tax Stone podcast, he talks about how a lot of rappers and people turned their back on him when he was going through the situation. Well, I think with that last one in particular, now he has the mixtape out and everybody really likes it a lot.

It's good. Everybody's rocking it and playing it. So, you know, it feels good. It's decent. It's dope. We got some joints on there. All right. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have fired their bodyguard, Pascal Duvier.

That's the one who was Kim Kardashian's bodyguard when she got tied up and held at gunpoint at the hotel in Paris. I just seen him in a video with Kanye yesterday, I thought. Yeah, they have decided to get rid of him, according to Entertainment Tonight. They said that he, along with a couple of other security members of the team, were recently let go. It's a

pretty tough situation overall. They love Pascal, but they couldn't take any more chances. And a source on Pascal's side also confirmed the firing. He's going to be working with Fergie now for her upcoming shows when her album comes out. All right.

My statement would have been everywhere I go, I keep a chopper with me. Whoa, whoa. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. All right.

Listen, say what you want about Diddy. That man is an African-American icon, an American icon, period, okay? Happy birthday, Diddy. He looks great for 63 years old. I don't think he's 63.
