Starting point is 00:02:42 Today is our day. The day that our great profession called radio was invented. It is? Are you sure? No, but it's something like that. Radio was invented today? Hold on. Let me get this right.
Starting point is 00:02:55 I'm pretty sure it was invented today or something. I don't know. Don't quote me on that. Because there's a lot of that. Today's National Lemonade Day.

Starting point is 00:03:17 All right. I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but I was in the ballpark. All right. Recognizes the great invention of the radio. So it's a day of recognition. Yeah, that don't mean that the radio was actually invented on this day. It was invented in the late 1800s. Really?
Starting point is 00:03:32 Mm-hmm. Radio? And they said not just one person can be credited with the invention. Well, that's true. And not one person can be credited with moving the culture forward. But I feel like the Breakfast Club has done their part. You think? Or set it back, depending on who you ask.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Well, this morning, Big U will be joining us. Dropping a clues bomb for Big U. He's moving the culture of Crips forward. Right, he's a big homie from the West Coast. Yes. Founded Corrupt. He was the first person to sign Nipsey Hussle. Very, very interesting story Big U has. A lot of the life that a lot of these
Starting point is 00:04:02 rappers rap about, Big U has actually lived, but he doesn't live that life anymore and he has turned his life around in a big way and he wants to do more positive for the rest of his life than he did negative in the first part of his life. Yeah, he did end up serving a lengthy jail sentence for a lot of things, so he'll talk
Starting point is 00:04:17 about that also. So we'll talk to him and talk about his impact on the culture, impact on the West Coast and his affiliation if any, with the Crips. So we'll talk to him a little bit later. And we got front page news coming up. What are we talking about? We are going to talk about the national anthem
Starting point is 00:04:31 and what's going on with the NFL. We'll tell you what the rule is going to be now. They got another rule? How many rules they going to make about this thing, man? Either let people knee or don't let people knee. We'll talk about it when we come back. And also, happy birthday to Fat Joe. Yesterday was Fat Joe's birthday.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Yes, happy birthday, Fat Joe. Happy birthday to Joey Crack. Drop on, happy birthday to Fat Joe. Yesterday was Fat Joe's birthday. Yes, happy birthday, Fat Joe. Happy birthday to Joey Crack. Drop on a clues bar for Fat Joe, man. One of the best people you'll ever meet in the world. Just a great human being. Great guy. Oh, today's Demi Lovato's birthday, too. Okay, happy birthday, Demi Lovato.
Starting point is 00:04:58 She would usually probably spend it getting high, but since she had an overdose a couple weeks ago, she's rehabbing right now. Yeah, we're praying that she gets it together, man. It's not easy. So get high for her. If you want to shout out Demi Lovato, you got to shout out Al Roker. Today is Al Roker's birthday.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Okay. You want to shout out Al Roker? Let's go to Al Roker. He's a great guy. I got high over the weekend. I smoked one puff of indica. Indica. That's what it's called, right?
Starting point is 00:05:20 Indica. I smoked sativa before. It made my anxiety go to the roof. Indica made me way too relaxed. Little Duval got his own grade of indica called Rich Broke Indigo. I smoked sativa before and it made my anxiety go through the roof. Indigo made me way too relaxed. Little Duval got his own grade of indigo called Rich Broke Indigo. My goodness.
Starting point is 00:05:30 And I realize when I'm high I don't like to talk to nobody so I need to be around people that I don't like to talk to. No, not that I don't like to talk to that I don't have to talk to. You know how you have
Starting point is 00:05:38 your family, your friends that you talk to all the time. Could you keep talking? Are you high now? I might be. Can we play some music? It's possible. Front page, this is next.
Starting point is 00:05:45 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? My name's Tiara. Hey, Tiara, get it off your chest, mama.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Oh, my God. Baby dad drama from out of state, but I just, I can't deal with that anymore. What happened? Talk to me. Talk to us. Well, how am I the bad one for putting child support? I need some help. You're definitely not a bad person for getting child support. Yeah, I don't think you're bad for that. Especially if he lives out of state. That means he's nowhere near
Starting point is 00:06:18 your child. In the end, it could be beneficial for him too, for him to handle his responsibilities and so there's never any question about what he did or didn't do. Right, right. So what's the problem? Nothing. Well, I just feel like, you know, single moms now are left to kind of just defend for themselves.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I feel like he doesn't really think into what the costs really are. I mean, it's all just in his head. Well, oh no, it's me, me, me. Well, it's us, us, us over here. Is he in the child's life at all? Does he spend any time with the child? I mean, he does call. Yeah, he does call.
Starting point is 00:06:50 But I feel like sometimes it's not sufficient. I mean, I feel like you should maybe come visit them or send them a little something. Maybe they'll appreciate that. You're right, boo. I think you should go to the judge and see if you can get a little more. And like you said,
Starting point is 00:07:00 there's a lot of expenses that come with having kids that he has to take into consideration that he probably doesn't. Put the out-of-state tax on him. Right. Alright, mama. Alright, thanks, guys. Good luck. Hello, who's this? Yo, it's iPhone Sim. What's good, Evan?
Starting point is 00:07:14 iPhone Sim, what's poppin', bro? Yo, I'm in the hood yesterday, right? So, I was like, yo, man, we heard you on the breakfast club, man. Everybody's f***ing with you. I'm like, yeah. And I hear a hater out the background say, they don't f*** with you how they f*** with trans, though. Yo, stop cursing. Why you cursing though, man? Come on, iPhone, Sam.
Starting point is 00:07:29 You know you can't curse. And that's why we don't F with you because you curse too much, iPhone. Chad would never. You know what, iPhone? Try back tomorrow. He was cursing too much, man. You got to keep it real for the dudes in the hood.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Y'all heard you on The Breakfast Club cursing, yo. Cursing, no. You be keeping it real. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Drew from Baltimore. Hi, Drew. How you doing, Drew? You sound sassy. Whoa. Whoa. Nah, bro. Oh, I'm sorry. But, um...
Starting point is 00:07:52 But I wanted to say, I wanted to shout out my mama because when I was short for change at, um, at lunch, when I was a kid, she came up and beat the, uh, she beat the lunch lady's ass. Yeah, I was
Starting point is 00:08:07 trying to cut some change. Hold on. I'm running late for work. Get your ass to work. I need to hear this story. Don't hang up on him. Don't hang up on him. I need to hear this story. He's out of breath. Hello? Hello? Bruh. You can't be
Starting point is 00:08:21 starting off a story that amazing and then not give us the end of it. Tell us how it happened. My goodness. You just was short money for lunch and your mama just beat the lunch lady ass? I need to know more. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:08:34 If you need the vent, hit us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're man or flesh. Say it with your chest. Whether you're man or flesh, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:08:48 So if you got something on your mind, lay it out. Hello, who's this? Kathy from Jersey. Kathy from Jersey. Get it off your chest, mama. Oh, man. I've been with my man for a couple of years now, and he does not want to come in. He refuses to live with me, and I had it. I was just at his house this weekend.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I'm laying up in his bed. And the whole sheet smelled like his father. What's that mean? What does that smell like? What does that mean? It's like somebody don't shower. It's not me. And I told him this morning, it's either me or your father.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Let's go. Oh, that's gross. So your father-in-law stinks is what you're saying? Yeah, dead ass. It smells like shit. I can't take it no more. Why is he even laying in his bed? Why is he laying in his bed?
Starting point is 00:09:31 I didn't like how she said that just now. Thank you. I told him. I said, yo, I said, nice for not having, I'm a grown female. I'm sitting up here trying to see you, and why the hell is your father laying in your bed? Instead of saying that the man smells like sugar honey honey, iced tea, you should say dead ass. He smells like dead ass. Goodbye, mama.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Thank you, guys. Hello, who's this? Hi, good morning. I want to stay anonymous. All right, anonymous. Get it off your chest. I'm just upset. I'm going through a separation divorce,
Starting point is 00:10:01 and I just found out this past weekend that he has been with somebody, and I've been trying to stay positive and encourage through all of it, but this weekend I kind of went off at our child drop-off. So I'm just going to move on with my life. All I needed was a sign, I got it, and I'm just really angry, but it is what it is. The divorce and the separation wasn't a sign? Yes, but we have been still... Messing around. The divorce and the separation wasn't a sign? Yes, but we have been still... Messing around.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Yeah. You didn't know he had moved on with someone else? Yes, not at all. Not at all. If it wasn't for the random phone call I had this evening, I heard everything I wouldn't have ever f***ed. Sorry for cursing. All right, well, now he's somebody else's problem.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Damn it, mama. Exactly. So God is good. I'm moving on with my life. I have two beautiful children. I'm just going to move on and live for me and them. You are free. Very free.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Amen. Hallelujah. All right, mama. Hello, who's this? Yo, what's up? This is Matlock. What's up, bro? Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:11:03 What'd he say? I don't know. Matlock? Yeah, Matlock. Like the old TV show, man. Like? This is Matlock. What's up, bro? Get it off your chest. What'd he say? I don't know. Matlock? Yeah, Matlock, like the old TV show, man. Like the old lawyer, word. Starring Andy Griffin. Yeah, in fact, that's my guy. I'm f***ing mad because my bitch...
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yo, stop cursing. Why is everybody cursing? Oh, oh, I'm sorry. Yo, I'm too casual with it. Why you mad? Y'all don't call Elvis Duran a curse. I'll apologize about that. I'm mad because my girl been working all night,
Starting point is 00:11:26 and she's still not home yet, man. Oh, boy. Where she work at? Man, she work in the streets, man. You already know, man. Yeah, it sounds like she work at a strip club. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:38 You know what? I wish she was a bartender, my kid. She a stripper? Or is she a prostitute? You said in the streets. She a stripper. Or she sells drugs. Yeah, she in the streets, man. I wish she was a stripper? Or is she a prostitute? You said in the streets. She a stripper. Or she sells drugs. Yeah, she in the streets, man.
Starting point is 00:11:47 I wish she was a stripper, too, man. So she not a stripper? She a prostitute. Yeah, man. Oh, so why you not her pimp? He is. I'm tight. She's not.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Well, I can imagine. That was a good one. I can imagine how scary that must be, not knowing if something happened or not when she's outside. I mean, you know, I mean, it is what it is when knowing that she does this and shit, but it's just the lying and just, like, the timing is just not working. So why don't you take her out of the streets, man?
Starting point is 00:12:16 Why don't you encourage her not to be a prostitute anymore, brother? I mean, I'm not going to lie. I'm at school to do some shit right now, so hopefully... Bro, stop cursing. I can do that shit and all. All right. Have a good day, sir. I don't care about you or your prostitute.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Goodness gracious. Prostitute. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. You got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to be talking about a rapper who just finally got released from prison. So we'll tell you what he's up to right now.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Also, I guess we should be talking about Nicki Minaj. We'll get started with that. You know, she was not too happy on Twitter yesterday. Did her first week numbers come out? Yes. You got those? Yes. Okay, can't wait to hear.
Starting point is 00:12:54 That's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 00:13:07 This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. Listen up. All right. Well, Nicki Minaj's Queen album is in the number two spot. She sold 185,000 equivalent album units. 78,000 were traditional album sales. She's number two spot, she sold 185,000 equivalent album units. 78,000 were traditional album sales.
Starting point is 00:13:26 She's number two to Travis Scott. I'd like to say that I said she would sell between 150 and 200. You did. My number was extremely low. I picked between 80 and 120. I thought it would be anywhere between 80 and 120. So 180 is a respectful number. Drop on the clues, Bonds, for Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 00:13:41 185. 185, that's a respectful number. All right, Travis Scott is number one. He sold 205,000 equivalent album units. And that's about right. He sold 550 the first week, so you know, you probably figure he'd lose about half of that. Now, Nicki went on social media and said
Starting point is 00:13:55 Travis sold over 50,000 of these with no requirement of redeeming the album with no dates for a tour, etc. I spoke to him. He knows he doesn't have the number one album this week. I love my fans for the number one album in America. I'll explain on Queen Radio, four albums in number one in 86 countries. No, Travis does not know he doesn't have
Starting point is 00:14:13 the number one album in the country because we are all looking at the same numbers you are, Nikki. He has the number one album in the country. You have number two. What's the issue here? She said my first album sold 400,000. No one is doing that with debut albums now, so I'm so grateful I lost
Starting point is 00:14:26 out on 12 hours of sales and did $200,000 in one week after I was supposedly canceled. I bit my tongue last Queen Radio, but I won't on Tuesday. I love you guys so much. I looked at the numbers, the Carters, Kanye, Nods, etc. I recently did. Travis sold $200,000 in his first week of clothes alone.
Starting point is 00:14:41 So I spoke to him last night and he said he's been selling clothes before the music. Billboard says they'll change the rules because of this, so it should be to him last night and he said he's been selling clothes before the music. Billboard says they'll change the rules because of this, so it should be changed now. Nikki, you said Travis sold merch to boost his album sales, but Nikki was bundling her album with concert tickets too,
Starting point is 00:14:55 so the rant makes no sense. I put my blood, sweat, and tears in writing a dope album only for Travis Scott to have Kylie Jenner post a tour pass telling people to come see her and Stormi.
Starting point is 00:15:05 LOL, I'm actually laughing. Queen broke the record of being number one in 86 countries. Thank Jesus and thank you to my fans. I mean. I mean what? What's wrong with her posting Travis's album? That's his, you know, chick. Why wouldn't she?
Starting point is 00:15:17 Yeah, you're right. Absolutely right. The same way. That's what Drake does. That's what Lil Wayne did. That's what Birdman did. Drake ain't post Nicki album, but I ain't one to gossip. You ain't heard that from me.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Spotify put Drake's face on every playlist, but told me they'd have to teach me a lesson for playing my music 10 minutes early on Queen Radio, even though they've been giving away my music for free for years, and I'm one of the top Spotify artists of all time. Nikki. First of all, it's rare that you see someone play themselves the way Nicki Minaj played herself on social media yesterday.
Starting point is 00:15:42 It's like, Nikki, you put out a good body of work, in my opinion. You know what I mean? The album's a little, Nikki, you put out a good body of work, in my opinion. You know what I mean? Album's a little long, but it's still a good body of work. And you sold 180-plus thousand records. That's great. That is great. Like, what's the problem? Then she says, Spotify has to teach me a lesson,
Starting point is 00:15:54 but rewarded the man who has had an Apple radio show the longest inadvertently helping the Apple platform the most. Oh, I can't wait for Queen Radio on Tuesday. They took away my promotion they had promised for the first couple of days because of this. Oh, my God. You never want to get locked up with Nikki. My label away my promotion they had promised for the first couple of days because of this. My label didn't want to defend me for fair Spotify trying to teach Ariana a lesson.
Starting point is 00:16:12 He never wanted to get locked up with Nikki. But let's be clear, she said people are calling me thinking I'm huffing and puffing. Oh my God, y'all, this is sarcasm, dry humor. Yikes. Everybody want to be a comedian, but don't nobody want to be a comedian. I'm having the most iconic time. Come let me kiss you. Who's coming to the secret show
Starting point is 00:16:28 when people call me and hear me cracking up, laughing they seem so puzzled? Loosen up. Nicki is blaming everyone but her bobs. Instead of activating the bobs to attack people, activate them to buy your album. I keep telling the bobs, I got a challenge for y'all.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Whenever y'all feel like slandering anybody y'all think is going against Nicki, just purchase the album. Every time. Every time you get a thought, I'm going to send this tweet to Cardi. I'm going to send this tweet to Envy. I'm going to send this tweet to Academics. I'm going to send this tweet to Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:16:51 I'm going to send this tweet to Joe Budden. Just go buy the album. Simple as that. All right. Now, welcome home to Kodak Black. Congratulations. He is out of jail. Put number two.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Kodak Black is home. I know you guys saw the pictures of him. He looks very excited to be home. He's already doing photo shoots and everything. Now, while he was in jail for seven months, he turned 21 years old, got his GED in June. He changed his birth name to Bill K. Capri from D.I. Son Octave. He was charged, if you remember, with grand theft of a firearm, possession of marijuana, child neglect, and two counts of possession of a weapon by a felon. Also, two counts of possession of a weapon by a felon. Also two counts of probation violation he was supposed
Starting point is 00:17:26 to serve until October, but some of those charges were dropped over the seven months so now he is home, but he is still facing a trial over accusations that he sexually assaulted a woman in a hotel room back in South Carolina in February of 2016. So, welcome home to Kodak Black.
Starting point is 00:17:42 He posted, I already showed my ass, now I'm gonna let my nuts hang. I like Kodak Black as a rapper, I already showed my ass, now I'm going to let my nuts hang. I like Kodak Black as a rapper, but I don't like welcoming guys like him home. Because I don't know how long he's going to be here. So it's kind of like pointless to waste my breakfast and say welcome home if you're going right back to jail. Alright, and Kevin Spacey's movie took in a record $126 in the box office. How is that a record? Record what?
Starting point is 00:18:02 Record lowest. Oh, goodness gracious. Record lowest. Was that one theater? It's a? A record low? Oh, goodness gracious. A record lowest. Was that one theater? It's a record breaking low. Ten theaters, actually. So that's about $12 per theater. I didn't know he had a movie up. Nobody did. Yes. It's called
Starting point is 00:18:13 Billionaire Boys Club. I thought white people canceled Kevin Spacey. It was the last film that he made before those sexual assault allegations. Obviously, it was made a while ago. They still put it out. There were other big names in that cast, but the film opened in just 10 U.S. cities. And in comparison, just so you know, last year his film Baby Driver, where he starred in that movie, took more than $20 million at the box office. So that's quite a steep drop.
Starting point is 00:18:35 $20 million to $126. All right. And Crazy Rich Asians, by the way, is in the number one spot. Hey! Opening to an estimated $25.2 million at the domestic box office over the weekend. I read that book when it first came out. So people did not expect it to do that well. By the way
Starting point is 00:18:51 this is the first major studio film since Joy Luck Club and that was 25 years ago. So Crazy Rich Asians is the first film to feature a predominantly Asian cast since Joy Luck Club 25 years ago. We're dropping the clues bombs foronds, for Crazy Rich Asians. The homie Awkwafina.
Starting point is 00:19:07 That's guy code girl code alumni right there. Love to see her glowing up the way that she is. Right, so wonderful, tremendous feat for them over the week. Awkwafina was in two number one movies this year. Ocean, was that Ocean's what? Ocean's one, Ocean's some number. What Ocean was it with Rihanna? Oh, yeah, I know what you're talking about, but I can't remember. I don't remember which number
Starting point is 00:19:25 it is, but it's up there. It was eight? Oh, okay. I was going to say eleven. I thought it was ocean twelve. I was about to say seven. We don't know. Alright, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. And congratulations to Nicki Minaj. To me, she pointed out something really interesting just now that but congratulations. Congratulations
Starting point is 00:19:41 for her having the number two album in the country. That's still big. Congratulations to Nicki Minaj for having the number two album in the country. Drop on a clues bond for Nicki Minaj her having the number two album in the country. That's still big. Congratulations to Nicki Minaj for having the number two album in the country. Drop on a Clues Bond for Nicki Minaj for having the number two album in the country. Okay? All right. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right.
Starting point is 00:19:56 When we come back, we got front page news. What are we talking about? We are going to talk about what is happening to a man who tried to blow up a Confederate statue. He was sentenced to how many years in prison? All right, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:20:10 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front-page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, let's start with a Houston man. He got more than six years in prison for trying to blow up a Confederate statue. Andrew Schenck was charged with attempting to maliciously damage property, receiving federal financial assistance.
Starting point is 00:20:30 According to these federal documents, he did plead guilty. The case went to federal court because where the statue was located gets federal funding for its maintenance. Now, the person in the statue was Dick Dowling. He was a Confederate, I guess, quote unquote, war hero back during the Civil War. And, you know, Shank clearly did not like seeing that statue every single day in a park in Houston. A Houston park ranger spotted him kneeling in the bushes near the statue last year and holding two small boxes containing what appeared to be duct tape and wires. So later on, they found out that he was trying to blow up the statue. He did admit to doing that, and it was about a
Starting point is 00:21:06 week after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. I had to talk to him the same way I talk to racist white people. Like, I'm not going to jail over something I hate. You know what I'm saying? I'm not taking off precious years of my life over something I hate. Well, now he has more than six years in jail. Yeah, F that statue. I mean, as much as you hate that statue, you can't
Starting point is 00:21:22 blow it up. And when you're sitting in jail for six years, you're going to be thinking to yourself, was blowing up that statue worth it? Or trying to blow it up worth it? All right, now, if you're watching the NFL, don't expect to see the national anthem at all. ESPN has said that they are not going to air the national anthem, nor will they air any of the drama that goes along with it. Generally, they have not broadcasted the anthem. They said that will not change this year.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Of course, they can't predict what could potentially happen, but right now they're not planning to air the national anthem. Yeah, I don't care. First of all, I'm not watching football this year, but even if I did, I don't watch the football games for the national anthem. The only time we ever care about the national anthem is when it's the Super Bowl and they got somebody, a superstar singing it. All right, and a man was detained while driving his pregnant wife to the hospital.
Starting point is 00:22:03 They said he had an arrest warrant in Mexico, according to ICE. Now, Joel Arona, 35, is a citizen of Mexico, according to ICE, in a statement that was illegally residing in the United States and had an outstanding warrant for homicide charges in Mexico. Now, his wife is saying those charges have to be a misunderstanding and that he's never been in any type of legal problems. And the Mexican consulate is saying they don't have any record of this either. The officers did ask for identification from both Arona and his wife, and they were having a scheduled C-section. So they were on the way to the hospital but stopped to get some gas. That's when ICE surrounded them in the gas station, and they detained him.
Starting point is 00:22:39 She said she spoke to him for the first time on Saturday and delivered the baby without him as well. Now, what outlet is reporting he really didn't have a warrant? According to the Mexican, this is CNN. They contacted the Mexican consulate. They said they have no record of any type of homicide charges. So he doesn't have a warrant? According to Mexico.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Now, according to ICE here, they're saying that he does. Well, I can't be mad at ICE in this situation. There's a lot of situations you can be mad at. If he did have a warrant. Yes, but if it comes up that he has a be mad at. If he did have a warrant. Yes, but even if it comes up that he has a warrant for murder. They got to bring him in. Yeah, I got to bring you in.
Starting point is 00:23:12 That's just what it is. Now, what if it comes up that he doesn't? Oh, it's too late. You still got to do the job. These misunderstandings happen all the time when it comes to the justice system. Anything could have went wrong with the baby, though, man. You can't at least let him take her to the hospital. If he has a warrant. They couldn't escort the woman to the hospital. If he has a warrant for murder,
Starting point is 00:23:25 they couldn't escort the woman to the hospital. If he has a warrant for murder, or maybe he doesn't. A warrant for murder? ICE is doing their job in that situation. You don't think they should have escorted the woman to the hospital? No. The pregnant woman was about to, they didn't. She had to drive herself. No. It was a scheduled C-section,
Starting point is 00:23:41 so it wasn't like she was in labor. It's the truth, though. She has a scheduled C-section. At it wasn't like she was in labor. It wasn't like she was having contractions. You guys are really not human beings. It's the truth, though. She has a scheduled C-section. At least let's escort the woman to the hospital. She wasn't in labor, Yee. Yee, she wasn't in labor. It's a scheduled C-section. It's a little different, Yee.
Starting point is 00:23:52 She wasn't in labor. It's not like she was breathing hard. The baby was coming out. Exactly. No contractions. She had an 8 p.m. schedule. Exactly. It's a little different.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Trust me. I got one scheduled next month, even though I don't want it to happen. I want it to come out the vagina. I'll tell you. I'll deliver the baby for you. month, even though I don't want it to happen. I want it to come out the vagina. I'll tell you. I'll deliver the baby for you. Man, shut up. You ain't got to pay nothing. I'm weighing all my options right now because I do not want another C-section.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Am I one of those options? Man, if you don't shut up, no. You sound like Jimmy Butler commenting on my wife's pictures. All right. But let's talk about it. That's front page news. Now, what happened with Dwayne Wade over the weekend? Well, Dwayne Wade, Gabrielle Union posted a picture of herself.
Starting point is 00:24:26 You know, that's Dwayne Wade's wife. Right. Very sexy picture. A lot of people commented on it, including Jimmy Butler. He said, well, damn. Now, Dwayne Wade said, put well, damn in caps on my wife photo again, and you're going to see what the good, the bad, and the ugly is like. That's right.
Starting point is 00:24:40 You're trying me because I wear these capri pants all the time. But you don't know, I put foot to your ass with these little velvet slippers I got on. Jimmy Butler responded, well, that escalated quickly. Point noted, I'm still coming to the barbecue, though. Think just because I dress like a ballerina, I can't fight? Okay. Yes. Try me if you want to, Jimmy Butler.
Starting point is 00:24:54 All right, well, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Can you comment on your friend's girlfriend or wife or partner's photos? Like, well, damn, Can you comment like that? Yeah, don't just say comment because you can leave a comment, but you can't be lusting. Well, damn. Hell no. Can you say looking good? No.
Starting point is 00:25:14 What can you say? So what's a okay comment then? You can't. You can't say anything? First of all, you shouldn't even comment on your man's pictures of Dan in a bikini, if your girl's in a bikini or something like that. None of that. Like, leave that alone. Just scroll past that. You know? She put up a, you know, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:25:30 What if he wrote, I gotta get your workout plan? Nah. Nah, that ain't too bad. I ain't sure workout plan ain't bad. If your wife posts some abs or something, you know what I mean? Ah, that sounds a little crazy.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Did you see the picture, though? I saw the picture. Nah, don't talk about her workout plan. Listen, I didn't like what Jimmy Butler did. I thought that was disrespectful. That shows me he don't got no respect for Dwyane Wade and no way, shape, or form. And he think Dwyane Wade can't fight.
Starting point is 00:25:51 Definitely think Dwyane Wade can't fight. You think because Dwyane Wade wear capes, that's because you wear capes, don't make you a superhero. And capris and no socks. That's what that is. That's all that is. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Call us up right now. The question, again, 800-585-1051. Can you comment on your friend's girlfriend, wife's partner photos? Would it like a well, damn? No. Call us now. It's the Breakfast Slogan Morning. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:26:14 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we were talking about Dwayne Wade and Jimmy Butler. What happened, Yee? Well, Dwayne Wade, as you all know, is married to the beautiful Gabrielle Union, and she posted a picture of herself, a very beautiful picture. And Jimmy Butler put, well, damn. And Dwayne Wade responded, put, well, damn, and capped him a white photo again,
Starting point is 00:26:36 and you're going to see what the good, the bad, and the ugly is like. I'm with him. I'm absolutely positively with him. If you my friend, you my people, don't comment on my wife's picture, especially not with a, well, friend, you my people, don't comment on my wife's picture. Yeah. Especially not with a, well, damn, you looking good, a nip. Yeah, Jimmy Butler think just because Dwyane Wade walks around in capri pants with no socks and little velvet loafers on with the penny in them
Starting point is 00:26:55 and capes and shoulder pads and crop top sheer shirts, you think that you could just talk to me any old kind of way just because I dress like this? You must not know I can fight. All right? There is no way in hell my man that I used to be teammates with, a fellow colleague in my
Starting point is 00:27:10 profession, can leave comments like that about my wife. Is there anything you can say though that's okay? Like on that particular picture? Nope. What about just double tapping? Can you double tap? Nah, I don't even think you should like it. If I see your name liked by Jimmy Butler, I'm feeling away.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Leave that alone, okay? Admire that in silence. No, I'm with you. Don't put that. What about you? I mean, because you got a boyfriend, and you post pictures sometimes in the bathing suit. I don't really post sexy pictures. And when you do, does your boyfriend have a problem if somebody leaves a comment or anything like that?
Starting point is 00:27:39 He's never said anything to me like he has a problem with anything. I can't control any comment that anyone might make. I mean, but artists leave comments when you have pictures like that, correct? Not like that. Let me go to your last. Gabrielle Union should not be responsible for what Jimmy Butler leaves on her page. That's all Jimmy Butler. Did you see any
Starting point is 00:27:55 other NBA players' comments? If my boyfriend gets mad, he doesn't tell me about it. What about the picture you posted? Remember the picture you posted when you was by the beach and you was sitting on the stool and you had your butt up and we was making jokes like you was farting? That picture. Nobody left a picture on that one? A comment on that picture?
Starting point is 00:28:10 I don't know. I don't read all those comments. Yeah, but it don't matter if somebody left a comment. My man cannot leave a comment, bro. Jimmy Butler is his former teammate. They're in the same league together. You can't disrespect me on that level, bro. So Charlamagne, when Envy's wife posts pictures
Starting point is 00:28:25 like in a bathing suit, he don't even follow Envy's wife. Perfect guy. What if Envy posts it? What if Envy posts it? I don't even follow Envy's wife. Okay, so what if Envy posts it? Can you double tap it?
Starting point is 00:28:33 No, I would never do that. That's disrespectful. Just to like a picture is disrespectful. No, but I don't like pictures. And I honestly don't like pictures either. I don't like pictures.
Starting point is 00:28:40 But you know what the funny thing is I do the same thing. I got friends that post their pictures, wives, and tops like that. I don't like nothing. i try to scroll through it fast like i don't even want to see it liking is a heart you got to make that heart fill up with joy hello who's this charisma hey charisma i don't think that it's okay to comment on your friends
Starting point is 00:28:57 post especially if it's something like sexy or like in a bathing suit or lingerie like you should just double tap and keep it moving unless you want problems. Like it also says how much respect you have for your friend. That's real. It doesn't make sense. That's what I'm saying. Jimmy Butler has no respect for Dwayne Wade or his ankles. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:29:15 Yo, what's good? It's Jerome in the house. Hey, Jerome in the house. What you think about Jimmy Butler? What you think? You think what he did was foul? Oh, Jimmy's wildin'. Jimmy's wildin'.
Starting point is 00:29:23 He's wildin'. You can't go hollller at your man, girl partially, like that's partially hollering at her. I know you'll ever mess up. I'm right here. I'm right here for the rebound. Wow. And see the crazy, I'm telling you, Jimmy Butler looks at Dwayne and all he sees is
Starting point is 00:29:38 sassy. He don't see a sassy savage. He just sees sassy. And you see, you could tell Dwayne was mad because he didn't even leave the comment under the comment. He went to his page. He's just like, I want you to see this. You could tell Dwayne was mad because he didn't even leave the comment under the comment. He went to his page. He's just like, I want you to see this. You could tell Dwayne was mad because the next picture he posted on Instagram, he actually wore socks. All right? You couldn't see his ankles.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Shut up. Well, just for the record, if you guys want to like my boyfriend's pictures, I don't mind. I don't even know who your boyfriend is. If he has on swimming trunks or anything, you guys are fine. Oh, thanks, she. 800-585-1051. We're asking. If you want to write, well, damn, under his picture, I'm not mad.
Starting point is 00:30:07 You stupid. Can you comment on your friend's partner's photos? All right, can you? 800-585-1051. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
Starting point is 00:30:19 We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, Dwayne Wade and Jimmy Butler kind of got into it a little over the weekend. You want to explain, Yee? Yes. Gabrielle Union posted a picture of herself. Very sexy, beautiful picture. The very beautiful Gabrielle Union and Jimmy Butler posted well damn under the picture and
Starting point is 00:30:36 Dwayne Wade responded, put well damn in caps on my wife photo again and you're going to see what the good, the bad and the ugly is like. Jimmy Butler thinks D. Wade is a sucker. A complete and total sucker. And this is what happens when you show your ankles a little too much. Every time you see D-Wade out, he's got on capri pants with some velvet loafers, and he's got his ankles out.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Jimmy Butler simply doesn't respect him. It's just that simple. How much you can never comment on your man's pics, me and your man's girl's pic. It's never cool. It's never okay. Don't like it. Don't leave a comment. Nothing.
Starting point is 00:31:03 D-Wade has too much unisex clothing for Jimmy Butler to respect. He's stupid. Dwyane Wade says him and Gabrielle Union dress alike way too much, and I can't tell where they bought the outfits from. Zara for her or Zara for him? All right, so he don't respect Dwyane Wade. All right, let me find out. Charlemagne Shop is Zara.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Hello, who's this? Sir, this is Nelson from Detroit. Nelson, can you comment on your man's girl's pic? No, not at all. Unless I secretly hate him and want to fight him and don't care about his s*** no more. Well, damn. That means all that. I agree wholeheartedly. You can't do that.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Even like, we were just having this conversation and my girl, if I introduce her to somebody in person and they're like, oh, does she got a twin or a sister? That's lightweight disrespect, too. Nah, I ain't mad at that one. I don't know about that. People say that all the time. That just means they think she's a great person, like somebody lightweight disrespect, too. Nah, I ain't mad at that one. I don't know about that. People say that all the time. That just means they think she's a great person, like somebody cool like your girl.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Brittany. Yes, good morning. Good morning. Now, this happen to you, Brittany? Yes. What happened? We had to meet twice, actually. I was posting pictures from a local show that I was in,
Starting point is 00:32:01 and one of my man's homeboys was on the way to the house for a gathering that we were having and he posted sheesh and like all these dots under one of my photos. So I hadn't seen it yet, but by the time I saw it, everyone was at the house and I tried to delete it just because I knew it was disrespectful and I didn't want no problem. But oh, you got to be quicker than that. My man had already seen it and he ended up addressing him like, hey, don't do that. Like, I'm disrespectful. And I understand you may feel
Starting point is 00:32:30 that way, but don't do it. Think about it. Like a picture or whatever, but don't be disrespectful. And then you had enough to do it on the way to my house. And what did he say? What did he say in response to that? He was just like, oh, I'm sorry. My bad, dog. I understand. What, you're doing all you can? So what else? You don't want to get mad about it?
Starting point is 00:32:46 You ever seen In Too Deep? LL Cool J? Yeah. When LL Cool J man tried to holla at his wife, LL Cool J put that pool stick in his ass. All right. All right. All right. All the women in the world. All the women in the world, you want to holla at, but you want to holla at my woman?
Starting point is 00:32:57 My goodness. Right. Come on now. Hello. Who's this? Yo, yo. Breakfast Club. This Pac-Man.
Starting point is 00:33:03 What's up, bro? Pac-Man. When was the last time you ate a ghost? What's up, Charlamagne? Yo, yo, Breakfast Club, this is Pac-Man. What's up, bro? Pac-Man. When's the last time you ate a ghost? What's up, Charlamagne? Yo, I'm calling from St. Stephen, man. Hey, South Carolina, 843 all day. You already know, bro, bro. I feel like, man, if anything, Gabrielle Union shouldn't even have posted that picture.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Oh, my God, now stop it. She can't post a picture of herself? Nah, man, not like that, man. my God, now stop it. She can't post a picture of herself? Nah, man, not like that, man. She a married woman, man. I look like a thirsty picture if you ask me. I thought it was a beautiful picture. I just saw her running on the beach. I didn't think I was walking on the beach. She's in a bathing suit.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I didn't think nothing of it. Come on, man. She got her little tatas poking out through her shirt. If anything, she should have had a little bikini top up under the shirt. She also is an actor, so she acts all the time. You see a lot of Gabrielle Union. She's feeling good.
Starting point is 00:33:52 What's wrong with her posting a picture? Nah, man, that was a thirsty picture, man. Y'all already know what that was, man. She just wanted some views, man. So you're saying it's her fault? How old is Gabrielle Union? Like 41. Sounds crazy.
Starting point is 00:34:03 I like seeing 40-year-old people flexing. You know what I'm saying? Gabrielle Union, 40-plus years old, flexing on the beach. Anyway, all right. Thank you, brother. Young boys ready to risk their jaws, not respecting their jaws, by leaving disrespectful comments on her page. What's the moral of the story, man?
Starting point is 00:34:20 The moral of the story is this, and this is going strictly for Dwayne Wade. Dwayne Wade, you can't force a person to show you respect, but you can refuse to be disrespected. You got to punch Jimmy Butler in his jaw, all right? Or at least foul the hell out of him next year and make him hit the floor, all right? Something got to give. Oh, my gosh. All right? That man cannot disrespect you just because you walk around in capri pants and velvet loafers
Starting point is 00:34:40 with capes and shoulder pads on, all right? Don't allow that level of disrespect. Well, hopefully he doesn't punch him in the jaw or anything like that. Punch him in the jaw, get a little blood on your see-through sheer shirt. What's them shirts you be wearing, Envy, the sheer? Is that what it is? The sheer, yes. Sheer.
Starting point is 00:34:52 Get a little blood on your little sheer shirt, Dwayne Wade. All right, well, we got rumors on the way. Yes, let's talk about the VMAs. They're going down tonight.

Starting point is 00:35:51 They walked down the aisle to John Legend's All of Me. They've been together since 2006. He always refers to her as his wife, so people thought they were already married. They have three kids together, but now they are officially married. If you guys remember, he proposed again three months ago at the Met Gala. And people were like, oh, I thought they were married already. But not officially. That was just his wife that whole time. And now it's official.
Starting point is 00:36:10 So, congrats. Dropping the clues bombs with 2 Chainz, man. My partner right there. People were talking about everyone's outfits. You saw Kanye had on his Yeezy slides. They were a little small. Let me tell you something, man. A lot small.

Alright, Natina said, I'm going to get you these Yeezy slides. I don't know if she was trying to be funny. I said, yes, do. You're like, please, yes, please. They look so comfortable. Let me tell you something. Yeezy is really out here repping for 40-year-old fathers feet.

Starting point is 00:37:14 that looks kind of crazy. Alright, Regina Hall has given us some details and I just want to say, I saw Regina Hall on a flight one day and she looked so beautiful with no makeup or nothing on. So shout out to Regina Hall. She's talking about Girls Trip Part 2. Here's what she had to say. We're trying to make that happen.

Starting point is 00:37:45 Now let's discuss the VMAs. Those are going down tonight. And Jennifer Lopez is getting the Vanguard Award. So I'm sure there's going to be a lot of special things and performances happening when she gets that award. And, of course, her boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez, will be there. Also, Nicki Minaj and Safaree are both supposed to be at the VMAs tonight and they actually have extra security in case the two of them run into each other. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:38:09 They're not going to do nothing. Come on, VMAs. Knock it off. That means I got to keep my phone charged the whole time I'm there just in case something goes down so I can see. They want to make sure there's no interaction between the two of them. No type of confrontation. What are Safaree and Nicki going to do to each other? Nothing. He said that she stabbed him.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Oh my God. We can't take those things lightly. You're right. You're right. You're right. We can't take those things lightly. You're right. You're right.
Starting point is 00:38:32 But just let the record show if that was a man who had stabbed a woman he definitely would not be invited to no goddamn VMAs. Well, yeah. Okay. He going today?
Starting point is 00:38:40 Yes, I'm going. You know he is. You giving him away an award? No, I'm not presenting that tonight but I'm going. All right. Cardi B is going to be opening up the show. Yes, she is. Which will be exciting.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Now, she's not going to be performing, but she'll be doing some type of monologue or something to open up the show. So that's going to be... Some people thought she would be doing a musical performance. That's not happening, but she is opening up the VMAs tonight, so make sure y'all tune in and watch that.
Starting point is 00:39:03 I thought she was performing. No, she's not performing. No, okay. Nikki's performing, right? Nikki is performing. Yes. Who else is performing? Anybody know?
Starting point is 00:39:10 I don't know. I don't even know who's hosting. Do they have a host this year? I have no idea. Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to be honest. The VMAs are here in New York tonight. Yes, it seems quiet.
Starting point is 00:39:19 And I haven't heard much about it. I know J-Lo's supposedly having a really big party afterward, but I haven't heard much. I forgot about it until I know J-Lo's supposedly having a really big party afterward, but I haven't heard much. I forgot about it until someone texted me yesterday like, I thought you were coming to this gifting suite. We have some stuff for you. Atlantic Records is having a party too. Only reason I know that is because we're on their payroll.
Starting point is 00:39:36 Alright, Cardi B, in the meantime, is going to be taking over the fashion world with Fashion Nova! Yes. So she is going to be doing a huge release, a huge launch party for her Fashion Nova. Yes. So she is going to be doing a huge release, a huge launch party for her Fashion Nova own collection. And the event is scheduled for early November.
Starting point is 00:39:51 She's going to perform and there'll be other big artists performing as well. We can't deny the effect that Fashion Nova has had via social media and on everybody. But yeah, she has her own collection with them now. And she also, I guess, is probably going to be doing some special song for Fashion Nova as well. All right.
Starting point is 00:40:08 I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Charlamagne. Yes. Will you give me your donkey, too? I need Nicki Minaj to come to the front of the congregation. Wow.
Starting point is 00:40:17 We need to have a word with her. Just a little conversation. That's all. Because I don't like sore winners. Okay. Nicki's being a sore winner right now. All right. I got to remind her that she is indeed a winner.
Starting point is 00:40:26 I don't know who's paying you to talk bad about her. Atlantic. She's going to have some bars for you later, boy. What do you mean? Now you're going to act like you don't know you? What, that you're getting paid by Atlantic? Yes. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Oh. Drop on the clues bombs for Atlantic Records. How much did they pay for this type of thing? $3.99, but hey, you know. Is it like a monthly retainer or is it? It's a hit. Case by case? Case by case basis, exactly.
Starting point is 00:40:51 My goodness. People are going to believe y'all. Anyway. They already do. Donkey of the Day is up next. Just go with it, Indy. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Charlemagne, say the game. Donkey of the Day. Charlemagne. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate. I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the heat.
Starting point is 00:41:17 It's a breakfast club, bitch. Who's Donkey of the Day today? Well, Donkey of the Day for Monday, August 20th goes to a queen from Queens named Nicki Minaj. Drop one of the clues bombs for Nicki Minaj. Okay. Now, it's rare that you see someone play themselves the way Nicki Minaj played herself on social media yesterday. Now, if you are not aware of what happened, the billboard charts for this week came out. And once again, Travis Scott, regardless of what Onika says, has the number one album in the country with Astroworld.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Drop one of the clues bombs for Travis Scott. Travis sold 205,000 units with 78,000 from traditional sales. Nicki Minaj has the number two album in the country with 185,000 units and 78,000 of her albums from traditional sales. Drop on the clues bombs for Nicki Minaj again. Okay? Because Queen, to me, is a good body of work. I have slight critique. Like, I probably would have shortened it to just 12 songs.
Starting point is 00:42:06 I also would like to hear a little more growth out of Nicki when it comes to her content. But I still think, in my opinion, that Queen is a good body of work. And it's a good body of work that sold 185,000 albums in its first week. I think that's more than respectable. I think that's a win. But Nicki Minaj, ladies and gentlemen, is a sore winner. And it's very, very, very rare that you come across a sore winner, but Nicki is one of them.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Nicki responded to the news of her having the number two album in the country by tweeting, Travis sold over 50,000 of these. By 50,000 of these, she means merchandise, right? With no requirement of redeeming the album, with no dates for a tour, etc. I spoke to him. He knows he doesn't have the number one album this week. I love my fans for the number one album in America. Now, when she says 50,000 of these,
Starting point is 00:42:50 she's talking about tour passes, merchandise. What is she talking about? Does anybody know? Merchant. I think it's a merch. It's a merch. I think if you buy the T-shirt or whatever it may be, I think you also get the album.
Starting point is 00:43:02 I know a guy, Dan, who works up here, loves merch, and he bought some of the Travis Scott merch, so I guess it comes with the album. I know a guy, Dan, who works up here, loves merch, and he bought some of the Travis Scott merch, so I guess it comes with the album. Whatever it was, I'm just here to tell Nikki, no, Travis does not know he doesn't have the number one album in the country because we are all looking at the same numbers. You are. He has the number one album in the country, okay?
Starting point is 00:43:17 You have the number two album in the country, all right? He sold $205,000. You sold $185,000. I don't care what bundles came with the album. So what if Travis Scott sold merch with album or tour passes with his album? Last time I checked, Nicki, you bundled concert tickets with your album too.
Starting point is 00:43:33 So I'm really trying to see what is the issue here, okay? Let's look at everyone who Nicki blamed for being number two, all right? She blamed Travis Scott for selling merch along with his album. She blamed Kylie Jenner for tweeting about Travis Scott's album. She blamed Stormi for being a cute little baby whose daddy happens to be Travis Scott,
Starting point is 00:43:48 and he made the album. She blamed Spotify for putting Drake on every playlist, but claimed Spotify told her they would have to teach her a lesson for playing her music 10 minutes early on Apple Radio. Nicki Minaj, you are blaming everyone like you lost something. You have watched too much Talladega Nights, because this quote has to be stuck in your brain. If you ain't first, you're
Starting point is 00:44:06 last. But I'm telling you, that's not true. Okay, it's okay. You put out a good body of work and you sold 185,000 records. Why are you being a sore winner? Nothing you're doing is queen-like. I mean, okay, let's just say, you know, let's just say all these people are to blame for you having the number two album in the
Starting point is 00:44:22 country. Okay, well, who's to blame for you having the number two album in 2015? Nicki Okay, well, who's to blame for you having the number two album in 2015? Nicki's last album, The Pink Print, debuted at number two with 244,000 albums sold. Okay, I don't remember her tripping off being number two then, so what's the problem now? In this album, Queen is better to me than The Pink Print, so the most important thing is you put out a good body of work
Starting point is 00:44:42 because nobody was canceling you because they wanted you gone from the game. People were saying they just wasn't feeling you musically anymore. So to hear you back musically is all I ever wanted. So for you to have the number two album in the country is cool. OK, I just want to know why you don't think this is OK. This is your second consecutive number two album. It's the second biggest debut week from a female rapper in 2018 behind Cardi B's Invasion of Privacy. The meltdown you had on social media yesterday wasn't warranted because you won.
Starting point is 00:45:10 And for all the Bobs out there who are in my mentions right now, ready to slander me all day for giving Nicki Donkey a day, how about take that energy to Apple? Take it to Tidal. Take it to Spotify. Take it to record stores. Instead of putting energy into slandering people who you think hate Nicki Minaj, go support her music. Every time you think about slandering me today or sending me a nasty tweet or leaving me an IG caption, just think to yourself, damn, I could be screaming Nicki's music right now. I'll purchase her music. Okay, Nicki, activate your barbs to buy your albums and not slander people who you have issues with.
Starting point is 00:45:39 It's way more productive. All right. I saw Nicki on Academics page Saturday when he posted the Billboard numbers, and she put, this is wrong. Okay? Real numbers come on Sunday. And then she put fake news sounding just like Trump. She was right, though, because the numbers on Saturday with Travis Scott
Starting point is 00:45:55 sells 225,000 with the number one album, and they had Nicki selling 190,000, but still the number two album. Okay? So she was right, you know, on everything except for the actual record sales. And all I'm saying is you could be number one next week if you get people to focus on the album instead of the antics, okay? The album is actually good. Put out more singles.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Do more videos. You're so busy worrying about what you don't have that you're not focusing on what you have, and what you have is a good body of work, a loyal fan base, and a number two standing on the Billboard charts this week. You have a lot to build off, Nikki. Okay, you are a God-fearing woman. So you know as well as I do that what we don't appreciate, we risk losing.
Starting point is 00:46:33 If you drop to number eight or number ten next week, you're going to wish you was back at number two. So, Nikki, stop being a sore winner because you won. You did it on them, all right? Let's celebrate you having the number two album in the country. All the Bobs, let's celebrate. Play my joint, please. Play my...
Starting point is 00:46:49 What the hell is that? Oh, that's my joint. Play my joint. You don't even know your song. Nikki did it on them, baby. She did it on them. Come on, now. Number two album in the country.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Put your number twos in the air if you did it on them. You could have at least played something on Queens. No, play that again. I want the number twos in the air because Nicki did it on them. She got the number two album in the country. We gonna celebrate. I'm tired of her being a sore winner. Okay?
Starting point is 00:47:19 Envy, do it. You're from Queens. Angela Yee, do it. Envy don't want to compete I'm the only person Envy was the only queen From Queens Put your number twos In the air

That's not going to do nothing for her album sales. Don't listen to Yeezy trying to keep you all off focus. Go get the Queen album, Barbz. All right.

When we come back, Big U will be joining us. Big U from the West Coast. Of course, OG Big U. Yes, sir. Had Corrupt from Dog Pound signed to him. Also, Nipsey Hussle. So we'll talk to him about everything that he's doing and just what he's doing for the culture when we come back.
Starting point is 00:49:16 So keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have from
Starting point is 00:49:29 the West Coast in the building one of the first people that founded and signed Nipsey Hussle, OG Big U. Neighborhood, what's happening with it? And you got some special guests. You got your artist with you as well. You want to introduce him to us? Yeah, this is OSB. OSB, yes. I don't know if we can say the last part.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Go ahead. Oh, I'm some bulls**t. I'm some bulls**t. Well, salute to Big U, man. Big U, your reputation precedes you, but who exactly is Big U for the people who don't know? Oh, man. I mean, I'm raised from the West Coast, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:49:59 I'm from South Central L.A. Went through all the bullcrap that most everybody went through. Prison, streets, you know, shot seven times, did all the drama. Then now really I like to pride myself on somebody who changed the community. You know what I mean? I think I'm doing a lot to try to change my legacy. You know what I mean? What was that change that you wanted?
Starting point is 00:50:20 Because we've all heard stories of big use. When was the change you said I want to do for better and change that well um i could say what the biggest thing i could i would like to celebrate is the fact that up until today los angeles california is the safest being in since 1967. we have the gang violence in los angeles the lowest has been since 1967. it's like an 81 decrease over the 15 years that I've been home. My main thing was to destroy the color line. Because while I was in prison and I was thinking about what I was going to do when I was coming home, I did three years and nine months in a shoe.
Starting point is 00:50:58 So getting out the shoe, I was 21 days before I came home. So I already wrote a program out. But I knew the problem was the colors. So you see red, you see blue dudes immediately going crazy. So when we came out with Nipsey, you see Nipsey wear a lot of red. So it was the first time a Crip was able to be able to push that red line like we was doing it. And it kind of killed a lot of the stress that was going on in LA. I think when I came home, I kind of just brought a level head to the streets.
Starting point is 00:51:27 It's interesting you say that, too. People always talk about the negative that gangs bring, but why are gangs good for the ecosystem? Or are they? Well, you know what? I say this. I was on a Clifford Dollars show and we was talking about gangs. My problem is
Starting point is 00:51:43 I feel like this. no matter where you go, men are going to unite with each other. You're going to grow up. You're going to have friends. You're going to call yourself something that's going to morph into other people enjoying what you do. That's why we see Crips and Blood growing across the nation and now across the world.
Starting point is 00:51:58 But our problem is this. We haven't took the natural growth in becoming something else we are still built on the ignorance and how ignorant we can be so we haven't seen the guys who should be you at 40 50 you should be thinking a certain way moving in a certain direction so that's what we're missing
Starting point is 00:52:18 we're missing that growth into becoming men and responsible men and leaders and leading in a different direction and I had a lot of homies. I was talking about something, and I was talking about why are you following OGs if they're not being an example to you, teaching you how to be with your woman,
Starting point is 00:52:35 teaching you how to raise your kids. And I'm still from my neighborhood. I represent Crenshaw no matter where I go, but I represent what's good and positive about Crenshaw. I think the problem is the gangbangers don't get a chance to grow up. They die early or go to jail for the rest of their life young.
Starting point is 00:52:51 No, it's ones that get older. You get older, but they don't grow older. Mentally, if you stand ignorant, if I can only have a conversation with my big on board and the only thing you can talk to me about is how I'm going to move this pack. Yeah. And we only
Starting point is 00:53:07 smoking and we rolling and I mean then we don't have nothing else. Absolutely. So we don't grow. We're not growing. We're not doing even what we see the so-called mafia did when they started sending their kids to college to go become mayors, governors and all that s***. They was looking
Starting point is 00:53:23 20, 30 years down the line. We missing that. You know, you got Crips and Bloods, it's missing that. You think artists have played an instrumental role in people being able to come together? Like you said, Nipsey, and then we get to see certain artists
Starting point is 00:53:35 working with each other, no matter what, if you're a Blood or a Crip. Right, definitely. I mean, the union between Nipsey and YG was a prime example. I don't think before that it's ever really been, other than MAC-10 and what was that? WC.
Starting point is 00:53:53 WC and MAC-10, that they pushed it. And that was not really where, you know, you had two young guys who was at their prime and was in there crippling blood. And the way they doing it, you need to see they moving it. You know what I mean? So it was... And then what people don't... The difference between Nipsey is we didn't come out
Starting point is 00:54:11 claiming L.A. or claiming Compton, Watts, and Long Beach. It was the 60s, period. It was only the hood. It wasn't no... It wasn't saying nothing else. And I got so much flack about trying to push Nipsey at the time why I don't know I mean I heard everything he too much like Snoop
Starting point is 00:54:30 the crib he's a crib nobody gonna want to hear that I mean it was all kind of everything I love this Nipsey first time I heard bullets ain't got no name it's hard time at first with Nipsey don't bounce around a couple labels and then it just finally caught a long time because people were worried about Nipsey. It bounced around a couple labels, and then it just finally caught. Yeah, it took him a long time, because people were concerned about his affiliations. It was. I mean, it was crazy. And then now I look at how my boy got the number one project.
Starting point is 00:54:54 Yeah. Definitely got the album of the year. I told you so. Definitely got the album of the year on some rap. No, Nipsey was on Def Jam for a little bit. He was on Def Jam, got off Def Jam. You know what I'm about to ask? L.A. was the first town that I ever heard created that check-in law.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Where did that ever come from? Well, I don't know if it was checking in because it was more like, like I had a, I mean, I don't like to digress, but I'm going to have to digress.
Starting point is 00:55:16 You're just reminiscing a little bit. I'm just reminiscing a little bit. For cultural purposes. It kind of goes back to, we used to, I had a crew we used to kidnap. That's what we did. You know what I mean? That was how I made a living. You to, I had a crew we used to kidnap. That's what we did. You know
Starting point is 00:55:25 what I mean? That was how I made a living. You know, I did the little dope thing and traveling around the country. My whole thing was taking it. And I was, we had a crew called the Body Snatchers. You know, we still live to that today. But you know, we, that was our thing. So if you came to the city, in any city, and you're not moving right, then you need to check it in when i come and i move in different cities i check with people you know i mean that's just respect absolutely and i mean it's just got to the point to now where almost any city i go in there's dudes that kind of live like me look like me think like me so i check in with them so so explain extortion to us what would
Starting point is 00:56:02 the rappers really be getting extorted by the gang members? I don't know. To be honest with you, because now it's like, for instance, you got homies that really come up banging 60s from every set that don't have to do nothing for nobody unless they choose to. And I got little homies, Lil Baby, Gunna, and all of them coming up. They don't have to check in with nobody. And they're going from Lil Baby, Gunna, and all of them coming up. They don't have to check in with nobody. And going from Lil Baby, Gunna, Nipsey, them, and other dudes that's coming up right now,
Starting point is 00:56:30 if they hit a city, if they got a problem, we're going to all have a problem. And they not doing no checking in. Not with us. But other dudes do got to. And I'm just going to keep it 100. Because if you're coming out here, you're eating, and you're in the club, and nobody know you, and you're bringing your crew, then what happens?
Starting point is 00:56:48 You're fooled. You're fooled, but even if you come in, just imagine this, though. If another crew pull up in you guys' area, and they ain't checked in with none of y'all, you're going to feel some kind of way. Yeah, 100%. You're going to feel like, okay, who you here with? Are we here?
Starting point is 00:57:04 We here. We just here. I mean, if you walk in this radio station, you're going to feel like, okay, who you here with? Are we here? We here. We just here. I mean, if you walk in this radio station, you're going to know who you here with. If you walk in the club, I'm going to want to know
Starting point is 00:57:12 who you here with. And then if you don't want to say who you here with, you feel like you're by yourself, that would be a problem. What about people who participate in gang culture
Starting point is 00:57:21 but didn't grow up in it? That's weird to me. Like they start claiming, you know, a certain set, and then you're like, I don't know. You wait till 25 to start banging. Well, that's still kind of weird to me. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:57:32 I feel like everybody don't have to be a gunner. Everybody don't have to sell dope. I mean, if you want to progress, but when you get to the point to where your motivation is just to feed off of that, then that becomes weird. You know what I mean? But it's difficult. You know why?
Starting point is 00:57:47 And I say this all the time. It became cool to be associated with a color. So a lot of rappers started to do it. Now kids are following that, and they're wearing colors, and they have no idea why. It almost seems like a gimmick. Yeah, see? Like when Fat Joe said B2K, crip walking, like that's what's up.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Like that's what it was for real. Nah, I was in prison when that was going on. And I was like, no. Because, well, this gets to what my mother would tell you. To me, the homies on the red side, they coach you go all the way back. And that's why you see a lot of the stuff that's going on with Tekashi69 because he know who to go at. And that thing with him and YG and all them is, you know,
Starting point is 00:58:22 it's like they think. But in our family, we ain't going to do all that. In their minds, it's like it's a Twitter situation. Oh, he put a tweet up, and he said, suck my d***. You know what I mean? He ain't doing that to me. I mean, I still got to.
Starting point is 00:58:38 I'm going to hurt somebody. I mean, the way I thought, I'm not even going to deal with you. I'm going to make your situation bad. My daddy always tell me when somebody tell you suck your d***, if you tell somebody suck your d***, you ready to die or kill. S***. All right, we got more with Big U. When we come back, don't move.
Starting point is 00:58:54 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Big U from the West Coast in the building. Yee. Before you went to jail and had to sit down,
Starting point is 00:59:06 did you ever think that you would get killed? Or did you ever think that... I've been shot seven times. Right. I've been shot in robberies. Seven different times? Seven different times. Oh, you here for a real reason, brother.
Starting point is 00:59:17 I've been shot seven different instances. Started when I was 14, so that wasn't even a problem. I was... I'm going. You sure you're not Luke Cage, man? No. Were you thinking of a way out, though, before? I wasn't thinking of, you know, I read Malcolm X.
Starting point is 00:59:31 You know how I changed? And it's crazy. And it might sound spooky. I was taking, I was selling 15, I was taking my pops, 15 birds from Minnesota. We used to fly them to Minnesota. Then from there, we were moving them all throughout Chicago, St. Louis, and all that. And I read Malcolm X's autobiography. We driving, and we taking a long route,
Starting point is 00:59:51 because we can't go straight from Minnesota straight to Chicago. We want to go the long route. Make a long story short, I ended up reading a book in 1989. I just had met Corrupt, and was signed to Corrupt and in reading the book it changed me right there bro I cut my jerry curl off and I was like man I'm gonna stay out here
Starting point is 01:00:14 I stayed in Chicago for like 6 months and I was on the run for a whole nother case and you know just I was going through this crazy trying to figure out like like, my life. You can't read that book and not feel some type of mental evolution. Man, it was the first time I ever read a book that related to me.
Starting point is 01:00:33 I felt like they was talking about me. And I read the book. I stayed out there. I started studying Islam, but I was still in so much conflict. So one of my G-Home boys got knocked down. And so all the homies just called him, like, bro, you got to come back. And we got to leave this charge. So now I come back.
Starting point is 01:00:51 I come back to L.A. My homeboy Mumpy got killed. And it was like, it's always like, it felt wrong, but it was like, you know, like we finna hit him every day. You know what I mean? And so that was the one thing that really changed me. And after that, it kind of, like, changed my whole life. And I was still dumb.
Starting point is 01:01:11 I'm young. I'm only 21. So I'm like, I'm not going to kidnap black people no more. I'm going to kidnap the other dope guys. You know what I'm saying? So, you know, being young, I'm like, I'm going to go kidnap these people, you know, and sell the dope to our people. Because I didn't know how to do nothing else.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Right. You know what I mean? I didn't know how to. Nobody in my family, I'm the first generation to even have money. None of my uncles had no money. None of my mothers had no money. I was the first generation to even have over $30,000 at one time. And so it was nobody to guide us like it is today.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Right. To be guided, you know, told how to use your money. I often wonder, I often feel like these kids don't understand the consequences of their actions. When you got sentenced to 13 years at 23, did you understand what 13 years was? No, no, I got sentenced to 56 years. 56 years? Oh, you served 13 to 56. I did.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I did 13. And you spent three years in solitary confinement? I did three years and nine months straight in the hole. Shit. Did you understand the magnitude of that when they told you, 56 years? Man, I was trying to figure out. I was saying to myself, they're going to be flying cars. Like, I think that was, and that's what made me go,
Starting point is 01:02:17 that's what made me figure out. When I got sentenced to the system, and I got sentenced, and I got the 56 years, I was saying to the system, and I got the 56 years I was saying to myself then that I'm not going to come out the ignorant person I went in. I really did two and a half more years than I was supposed to do based off the fact that I caught that case in jail. And I had knocked out a dude's eye, so his eye came out. What do you mean eye? His whole eye came's eye so his eye came out. What do you mean eye? His whole eye came out? His whole eye came out. God damn!
Starting point is 01:02:51 I heard you used to study martial arts. Is that true? No, I still study martial arts. That ain't fair. You big as hell. You built like a nose guard and you know karate? Yeah. So after his eye falls out. You punched him in the eye and it just fell out. No, it was we was in the eye And it just fell out No It was We was in the day room

Starting point is 01:03:33 I'm checking mine now to make sure mine didn't. I heard about that when I was in jail. Did they put it back in? Yeah, well, I think he had to replace it in there. If you break this bone, I don't know what it's called, but your eye will come out. Really? Yeah, and it was a break and a crack right here.
Starting point is 01:03:53 That scares me that you know that. It was my first time seeing it too. But, yeah, I ended up getting a fire sentence for that. And then I had it was 38 months in the hole. And that's when I did the three years
Starting point is 01:04:09 and nine months. But when I got to the hole it was like we got you. So now they're like remember when you and then it was like so now
Starting point is 01:04:16 when the officer they read your history it was like you caught a stick in on the where something happened with officers in 90 you know I'm like alright man whatever. So then they was like and then a stick in on a, something happened with officers in 90. You know, I'm like, all right, man, whatever.
Starting point is 01:04:26 So then they was like, and it ain't shit you can do. How do you not go crazy three years and nine months in the hole? I don't know how I didn't go crazy. We not show you if you did? Yeah. Hey, look, I have never in my life been scared
Starting point is 01:04:39 than when I first got to the shoot. Because that's the one time when you're by yourself and you can remember everything you ever did in your life. And that's when you see your demons. Like, when I went to the hole for the assault I went to the hole for, it was different. So they put me in a different hole, and it was 30 days. I had, like, 30, maybe 40 days with nothing.
Starting point is 01:05:04 Nothing to read and no sound. And this drives 30 days. I had like 30, maybe 40 days with nothing. Nothing to read and no sound. And the drives were crazy. You don't even know what day it is, right? Lose all that. So I started taking milk cartons, and I was making, you know, playing cards off the milk cartons and trying to keep that in ginger. I used to take, I made puzzles off the napkins.
Starting point is 01:05:24 I just draw little designs on the napkins, wet them, and then I'd cut them up and then put puzzles together just to keep my mind from going crazy with napkins. But it was brothers going crazy, like, right next to me, like, really losing it. And I could feel that this was the only time in my life I was really scared. I was really like, damn.
Starting point is 01:05:44 And I didn't want to go crazy. You could damn near remember all of the wrong you did. I don't want to go into that, but you know what I mean? And that was scary to me because I could, I had suppressed, I didn't remember. You know what I mean? And then I was like, I can remember when I was five years old, getting whoopies and all that, and it's so crazy.
Starting point is 01:06:02 Do you ever feel like all the negative you did in your life, you got to do twice as much positive now to count it in? That's why I'm doing it now. I feel it. That's why I'm doing it now. That's why I feel like I want to be known for L.A.'s being where it is right
Starting point is 01:06:17 now and trying to get better and the gang violence being down. And young black men not killing themselves like they were at one time. My final question, would you change anything that made you big you? Man, I wouldn't want to.
Starting point is 01:06:32 I would want to go back and change all of the pain that I may have caused other people. You know what I mean? That's the only thing I would want to change. Just because, like I said, when you start to remember and then you start to see when you get older that if it's a heaven, I want to go.
Starting point is 01:06:50 You know what I mean? So my work today is about changing and reaching that heaven. You know what I mean? Right. Well, we appreciate you joining us. I just got one other request. You think you could pop Charlamagne's eye out one time? Man, shut up.
Starting point is 01:07:07 The man just talked to you about heaven and hell. You want him to do something that's going to cause him to go to hell? I never see that. You're going to go to hell too for making the request. All right. It's Big U, OSBS. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:07:25 Anyway, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Jeremiah. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Jeremiah has spoken out about what happened on the tour. Well, the tour that he formerly was on, the Later That Night tour with Tiana Taylor, which is now that Keep That Same the tour. Well, the tour that he formerly was on, the Later That Night tour with Tiana Taylor, which is now that Keep That Same Energy tour. Now here is what he had to say on a radio station in Chicago.
Starting point is 01:07:50 I ain't got nothing left but love for her. I actually love her album. We helped her write it. I think right now, I don't know if she on the high horse or she was on the rocker, but I just wasn't. I just didn't like a lot of shit she said. And trying to like, you know, make people think a certain way about me.
Starting point is 01:08:05 And she go so hard, and I don't do shit. And she got mad over some chicken wings one night. We eat, we got, we have our own catering. She mad, we had our own. It's like, I can't deal with no, I grew up with a woman my whole life. So I know how to deal with a woman. I don't want to call it bipolar. I don't know what's going on.
Starting point is 01:08:24 I've never heard Jeremiah talk a day in my life. That morning show was Kendra G and Leon and Kyle. Chateau, Chicago. Yeah, Chicago. The morning riot, I think. Yeah, the morning riot. Sleuth to my people. Sleuth to... Drop on the clues box for the morning riot. Well, that was him on
Starting point is 01:08:39 FaceTime with a hot rod. So, that particular audio... Oh, that wasn't from... You just be making up stuff, man. I did. I saw Kendra didn't wasn't from him. I thought that was from Kendra. You'll just be making up stuff, man. I did. I saw Kendra and released it this weekend. I thought that was from Kendra and Leon and Kyle.
Starting point is 01:08:50 I saw that on the websites this weekend. So yeah, that's where we got that particular one from. But he also did a phone conversation in Chicago with our girl Kendra G. All right. Now, in addition to that, he said that he's not that big on social media it's never been his M.O. but he feels like
Starting point is 01:09:08 she was just taking the sympathy route now he goes on to say that 80% of the audience when she said that 80% of the audience leaves when the set is over
Starting point is 01:09:16 he said she tells everybody after her show to meet her at the meet and greet everything she said was just making no sense to me if she really told the truth
Starting point is 01:09:22 she would have made herself look dumb as hell. All I know is that tour is still going on, and Tiana has sold out two shows since Jeremiah dropped off it. So I don't know who they're there to see, but it seems like they don't mind seeing Tiana by herself. I mean, it would have been nice for them to...
Starting point is 01:09:37 I actually went to the show in New York City. She sold out Chicago last night by herself. Mm-hmm. So good for her, though. You know, Tiana Taylor's out here working. Jeremiah has some big hits that I really like as well. I don't know what went on, if there was some miscommunication between the two of them. I just don't know what he looks like.
Starting point is 01:09:52 You can do mad fake Jeremiah shows if you want to. Jeremiah. Jeremiah. Yeah. Yes. I like Jeremiah. I know what Jeremiah looks like. All right.
Starting point is 01:10:00 Now let's talk about Rihanna. There's going to be a Rihanna documentary that's being released soon. The director made the announcement, his name is Pete Berg, that there will be something. He said, I think she's an extraordinary young woman. It really is kind of a pretty comprehensive profile of what goes into making her this talent that she is. He said the movie will be out in a month and a half, two months. We'll be able to start showing it.
Starting point is 01:10:20 So we don't know what platform this will be on, but we do know that that film is going to be coming pretty soon. I'm here for that. Yeah, I can't wait to see that because she's a fascinating person. Alright, who is the highest paid actress on the planet? Well, it turns out, according to a new list from Forbes, with $40.5 million
Starting point is 01:10:38 pre-tax for the past year, that would be Scarlett Johansson. Thanks to her role of Black Widow in Marvel's Avengers Infinity War, as well as the movie Rough Night, and the Ghost in the Shell movie. So, she is number one on that list. Angelina Jolie is number two, and Jennifer
Starting point is 01:10:53 Aniston is number three. So, both of Brad Pitt's exes are number two and number three on that list. That's crazy, because she don't even have a starring role in X-Men. I guess she is one of the stars, but she's not one of the main, main, main stars. She's got her own movie coming up, her own Black Widow movie. Yeah, it shows you how
Starting point is 01:11:07 men make so much more than women when it comes to things like acting and stuff like that. You just said she's the number one person on the list. No, actress. Yeah, you just said she's the highest,
Starting point is 01:11:15 $45 million? Yeah, for $40.5 million pre-tax. So I'm talking like, think about how much The Rock made in the past. But he's saying she didn't really have a big role. Yeah, she didn't even have a big role in the movies.
Starting point is 01:11:26 And she got $40 million. So, I mean, it's a combination of different things, not just that movie, you know. All right, R. Kelly, he is on the hook now for more than $200,000 in repairs. And that's for trashing two homes that he rented in Georgia. He peed all over the place. They said that he moved out of the properties, the two properties, and left a mess behind. I could just imagine what's in that mess. They said they need to refinish the flooring and carpet in many of the rooms.
Starting point is 01:11:50 Sounds pretty shaky already. You're right. Also, broken windows, damage to the theater, study, fitness room, cigar room, bathrooms, kitchen, living room. Some items were missing, like the stove, light fixtures, mirrors, tables, all of those things. They said one of the houses was filled with trash and had two broken windows as well. What is he doing in these places? All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
