Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more.
After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast
Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into
their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.
Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions,
but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love.
I forgive myself.
It's okay.
Have grace with yourself.
You're trying your best.
And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.
Alicia Keys, like you've never
heard her before. Listen to

Collectively known as Breakfast Club, bitches.
Good morning, Angelie. Hey, good morning, T-Zambie.
Charlamagne Tha God.
Peace to the planet.
It's Thursday.
Yes, it's Thursday.
One more day until the weekend.
Or maybe it is the weekend, depending on how you look at it.
They've got one more day.
Some people start the weekend on Thursdays.
Nah, we got one more day.
I'm still out in Detroit.
Shout out to everybody out in Detroit.
I had an amazing time. I had to do a Remy Martin event out here.
But not only that, you know that Angelina and I own properties out here.
We were able to scoop up some real estate for like really, really, real cheap.
What do you call real cheap?
A dollar?
Wasn't they selling stuff for a dollar out there?
No, not a dollar.
It was starting at $500 at first from the land bank.
Then it starts at $1,000 and it's an auction. So if nobody bids on it bank. Then it starts at $1,000, and it's an auction.
So if nobody bids on it, you could get it for $1,000,
but sometimes the bids go up really high.
Yeah, so Angelia, I think, picked up a property for $1,000.
You picked up one for $1,000, right?
Yes, that one I actually just finished rehabbing.
Yeah, so I actually went by Angelia's house.
I went by a couple of my houses, and we bought it like eight years ago.
And I think eight years, it was worth about $1,000.
And, you know, when we talk real estate sometimes, you know, you got to pre-plan.
And Angela Yee was the one that put me on to Detroit.
And those properties now are worth like $300,000, $400,000.
Oh, y'all got money?
Well, I mean, we'd have to sell it and fix it.
But, you know, when I would say that when we bought the properties, when I say it was hood, I mean, hood, hood, hood.
You wouldn't even want to walk by there.
Now, you see white ladies walking their little cute dogs.
You see people jogging at, you know, one in the morning.
Like, the area has changed in eight years.
It's called gentrification.
That's what it's called.
Yeah.
And that property's worse up.
So I was excited about that.
So we're just cruising all through Detroit.
I went to my favorite restaurant, Sweetwater.
Got some Sweetwater wings. That's funny. we're just cruising all through Detroit. I went to my favorite restaurant, Sweetwater.
Got some Sweetwater wings.
That's funny.
That's your favorite restaurant in Detroit. In Detroit, it is.
Yeah, it is.
So I was pretty good.
What'd you guys do yesterday?
Anything?
Yesterday, I had this podcast with State Farm that I do with my girls Aminatou So and Tanya Rapley from MyFabFinance.
So I was with those ladies.
And then I had my lip service podcast after that.
I had a long day.
And I taught a class, WEAN.
And that's an organization that I work with all these young women who actually,
they go through a long process to become a part of this,
but it's to actually get more educated in working in the entertainment field.
And so every single year I teach a class for them,
and I teach them how to do like the perfect radio break.
So we go over that, and it was really fun.
What's the perfect radio break? Well, I over that and it was really fun. What's the perfect radio break?
Well, I just teach them the technicalities
of like introducing yourself, introducing
a topic, how you discuss the topic,
having different roles when you do it, having
your own perspective. It's fun.
And then so each group breaks down and there's no like
definite way like this is what you have to
say or do, but just basically forming
how you should do the technicalities
properly and then making it interesting and giving it your own perspective.
I've been doing radio 20 years.
I don't feel like I've ever done the perfect radio break.
I've heard other jocks do the perfect radio break, at least to me, though.
I'd be like, damn, that was flawless.
Like I gave each of them four different stories to choose from.
I said, you can either do all four of these or you can pick one or however you want to do it.
So they will introduce the story.
Say they were talking about Azealia Banks.
They would introduce the story, give the facts,
and then they would jump in with their own personal opinions
or how they relate to it or don't relate to it
and, you know, have their roles.
It was good.
I'm going to be honest, man.
Having conversations on the radio
about explaining to people how to do radio is so boring.
It's like, huh?
But if you had a chance to see these young women,
they did such a great job.
She's teaching, right.
And it was fun.
And so I think
even if you don't want
to do radio,
it's good just in life
in general.
If you need to ever
speak in front of people
or if you want to work
behind the scenes
in something
or do marketing,
all these things are important.
That's dope.
All right.
Well, let's get the show cracking.
Sherri Shepherd
will be joining us this morning. She's so
funny. Yeah, Sherri Shepherd. So we'll kick
her behind a little bit and we got front page news.
What are we talking about? Well, Donald Trump is definitely
backtracking some more. We'll tell you what
he had to say in a recent interview that he did
and he's trying to explain himself when it comes
to Vladimir Putin.
Alright, we'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Everybody, it's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Let's get into some front page news.
Now, the San Antonio Spurs have traded Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green
to Toronto Raptors for DeMar DeRozan.
I don't know if that's a good trade.
Why is that not a good trade?
Well, first, DeMar DeRozan is pissed off because he didn't see it coming. He thought that
Toronto had his back. DeMar DeRozan
is a great player, though. He's pretty pissed off.
And Kawhi Leonard, this is his last year in his
contract, so he's already said he wants to play for
LA, so he can get to
Toronto and be out after this. Well, maybe they're hoping
Kawhi Leonard loves Toronto so much
that Drake opens up, Drake
rolls out the red carpet for him, shows him a good
time in the sixth, and he'll want to stay.
I mean, Toronto is a beautiful city. Let's be fair.
It is a beautiful city.
So he might like it there.
That's true.
All right, well, let's talk about your president, Donald Trump.
Yes, Donald Trump just did an interview with CBS
trying to clarify some previous remarks that he made.
Now, if you remember, the original remarks were made
during a Helsinki conference when he said this
with Vladimir Putin at his side.
My people came to me, Dan Coats came to me and some others.
They said they think it's Russia.
I have President Putin.
He just said it's not Russia.
I will say this.
I don't see any reason why it would be.
Now, he also then had to try to clean that up.
And he did a joint news conference in Helsinki.
And this is what he said about those comments. I thought that I made myself very clear by having just
reviewed the transcript. Now, I have to say, I came back and I said, what is going on? What's
the big deal? I realize that there is a need for some clarification. It should have been obvious.
I thought it would be obvious, but I would like to clarify just in case it wasn't.
In a key sentence in my remarks, I said the word would instead of wouldn't.
The sentence should have been, I don't see any reason why I wouldn't or why it wouldn't be Russia.
So sort of a double negative.
That's crazy because when a president does stuff like that, that could be a matter of life or death.
Like, yo, you want to push the button? You want to push the nuclear weapon button?
Don't do it.
I meant to say...
Don't. I meant to say do it.
No, I meant to say don't.
Well, he did an interview yesterday, CBS Evening News, with Jeff Galore,
and here's what he had to say.
He's further trying to clean things up.
So you agree with U.S. intelligence that Russia meddled in the election in 2016?
Yeah, and I've said that before.
And I would say that that is true, yeah.
But you haven't condemned Putin specifically.
Do you hold him personally responsible?
Well, I would because he's in charge of the country,
just like I consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country.
So certainly, as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible.
Yes.
What'd you say to him?
Very strong on the fact that we can't have meddling.
That's got to be so awkward
for Trump to press Putin's line
for hacking the election
because on one hand,
yes, we can't have meddling
from other countries
in our elections,
but on the other hand,
he won.
You helped me to win.
So thank you.
And then he also wouldn't call Putin a liar
when pressed about that.
He just,
he won't speak strongly against him.
It's like when your mom tells your pops to press you because she found your porn stash.
And your dad is like, look, man, hide this from your mom better.
Okay?
All right.
Well, that is your front page news.
All right.
Now, when we come back, get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, you can hit us up right now.
Or if you feel blessed and want to spread some positivity, 800-585-1051.
And don't forget Sherri Shepherd will be joining us next hour.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Pick up the mother, mother phone and dial.
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.
Say it with your chest.
We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
So you better have
the same energy.
Hello, who's this?
This is Jose.
Good morning.
How you doing?
Jose, get it off your chest, bro.
Why are you calling him Jose?
It's Jose, Papa.
Jose.
Don't call me Papa.
Don't call him Jose.
Okay.
All right, Jose.
Get it off your chest.
You want to be called a hoe?
Call him a hoe. Hey, I mean, I get hoes, Charlamagne. Don't start that. Okay. All right, Jose. Get it off your chest. Call him a hoe. You want to be called a hoe? Call him a hoe.
Hey, I mean, I get hoes, Charlamagne.
Don't start that shit.
All right.
Oh, my goodness.
I just want to get off my chest the fact that I'm down here in South Florida, and it's sad,
yo, because there's still a lot of racism going on, because it don't matter what color
we is, we all bleed the same, yo.
Like, you know what I mean?
The other day, this white guy was looking at me real dirty and nasty, and I'm thinking
like, yo, old man, you don't know.
If you need a blood transplant, I could be the one to save your life.
Why you ain't just pass him the blunt?
That's what he wanted.
Unfortunately, I can't do that right now because I'm on Facebook.
But soon enough.
Okay.
All right, my brother.
Thank you for calling.
I ain't giving nobody no goddamn blood transplant.
I was a real Jehovah's Witness.
We don't do that.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's going on, DJ?
It's JC from Charlotte, North Carolina.
What's up, bro?
I'm going to be in Charlotte this Friday.
Get it off your chest.
Oh, you are?
Yep.
Oh, man, you're going to miss a special day today, Thursday.
It's Threesome Thursday, so I just want to say that.
Threesome Thursday.
It's a great day.
I never heard of that.
What is that a thing?
Is that a thing just in Charlotte?
No, that's a thing just in my house, Charlotte, man.
I have the national holidays right here, sir.
It's National Daiquiri Day
and National Flitch Day.
And flitch is a measurement
for bacon.
So you're supposed to measure
your bacon today.
It says nothing about threesomes, sir.
Well, you have the wrong
national holidays.
You're missing one.
You can't just make up
a holiday.
Sure you can.
You can make up
whatever you want
in this day and age.
Okay.
I mean, look at the president.
He makes up whatever
he wants to, right?
Explain it to us.
What happens today in your house?
What do you do?
So it's one lady and two guys?
That's what you do in your house today?
I don't know, man.
That's some s***.
Okay, stop it.
Tell me, what is it?
What is it then?
Tell me what y'all do.
It's two ladies, obviously, and me.
Why is that obvious?
Me and my lady.
He said obviously.
It could be three guys.
It could be three women.
Who gets to pick the lady?
My wife does.
Wow.
All right.
Yeah, so once a month on a Thursday, we go to some local bar,
some local dive or something.
And obviously it's Thirsty Thursdays.
So, you know, we have a couple drinks.
We scope out the crowd, see which lady she would like to take home. And if I agree, then, you know, we have a couple drinks. We scope out the crowd, see which lady she would like to take home.
And if I agree, then, you know, she approaches her, she brings her back, and, you know.
Y'all get it popping.
Have you ever not agreed?
You get it popping?
Yeah.
Yeah, there's been a couple times where she's, you know, struck out on the first swing or first at bat.
So she has to go back up to the plate.
I'm going to be honest with you, man.
This all sounds very exhausting. I'm going to stick honest with you, man. This all sounds very exhausting.
I'm going to stick to Taco Tuesdays, okay?
Yeah, how about you?
I'm not going to go chasing.
It's a fantastic holiday.
Yes.
But I'm just telling you, man, you have to put this into your rotation as well.
I'll pass.
It's a great way to spice up the bathroom, you know?
Nah, I'm good.
You enjoy your threesome.
I'll make sure I have fish tacos this Tuesday.
There you go.
Get it off your chest.

Hey, Danny, get it off your chest.
Yeah, I was trying to get in touch with Angela's Yeast Lip Service

Is this service supposed to be teaching people how to be porn stars?
Yes.
Okay, explain it to me. Is this service supposed to be teaching people how to be porn stars? Yes. Okay.
Explain it to me.
Oh, okay.
So we're mainly a new adult service that helps them get into the adult industry through their camera phones.
And all they have to do is, you know, join our service and they can be open or discreet.
And they can be an adult porn star, you know, and we can help them break into the adult industry and get them to be shooting with the bigger porn stars because we have connections with them.
Okay.
All right.
There's something for everybody.
So I'm going to hit you guys up.
We'll get you on lip service.
Okay, cool.

We'll tell you what she had to say when she was up there.
All right.
We'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The rumor report.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the rumor report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, imagine this.
Kim Kardashian just made $5 million in five minutes.
She released her newest set of perfumes.
It was three different fragrances.
It's Kamoji Cherry, Kamoji Peach, and Kamoji Vibes.
She did not spend any money on advertising,
and she made $5 million in five minutes.
Great e-commerce.
Just released it online, and here you go.
Exactly.
$45 each.
Only social media marketing was used to get the word out.
Yikes.
Clearly that worked.
So they said the amount of bottles available for lunch
this time around was increased because a lot
of people wanted it, but of course, you know, they tried to make
it a little more limited. We're dropping the clues
bombs for Kim Kardashian. Five million dollars
in five minutes. That Kardashian-Jenner
clan is different.
That's one of the greatest dynasties of all time
we're witnessing right there. It's crazy. Alright,
Katy Perry says that she actually had
situational depression depression and that's
after her last album pretty much
flopped. She said, music is my first
love. I think it was the universe saying, okay, you
speak all of this language about self-love
and authenticity, but we're going to put you
through another test and take away
any kind of validating blankie.
Then we'll see how much you do truly
love yourself. She said this in the August issue
of Vogue Australia.
So she said her album got mixed reviews from critics and from fans,
and she was very pained.
She said, I've had bouts of situational depression,
and my heart was broken last year because unknowingly I put so much validity
in the reaction of the public, and the public didn't react in the way
I had expected to, which broke my heart.
I mean, I respect it, you know what I'm saying?
But yes, the album was whack.
Okay, the album was whack.
The performances were terrible.
The rollout was terrible.
That's when she had the song with the Migos and Nicki Minaj.
It was pretty bad.
You know, I'm a Katy Perry fan.
She was actually up here at iHeart.
I love her first two albums.
But never came by the Breakfast Club.
No, she didn't.
She gave us a raggedy phone call.
But she said the experience has made her grow.
She says it gave her a new foundation.
It's a soul foundation, not just the material one.
Her first two albums definitely were the best.
All right.
Now let's get into Stevie J and Faith got married.
How did this even happen?
Did we see this coming?
Listen, we knew they were dating, but some people didn't believe it.
They thought it was just for his show.
But they did get married yesterday.
Now, according to sources,
first, what happened was
they went and got a marriage license.
They filed for the license on Tuesday
and then they went ahead and got married.
Actually, they got married Tuesday night
in their hotel room around 10.30 p.m.
She really married him?
So at the time difference,
it was yesterday, huh?
She really married him?
She really married him.
They got one of those mobile ministers
that come through and make it happen.
They got mobile ministers?
Like you can just call them like a Uber?
Yeah, it's a gypsy mobile minister.
I mean, it's Vegas.
They were in Vegas.
I'm going to try that next time I need a prayer.
Right.
So she actually placed the call herself for a local minister.
And they did the wedding at, this part bothered me, at Trump Hotel.
That's where they were when this all went down.
Because I would hate to be like, I got married at Trump Hotel.
But anyway, that's neither here nor there.
Now here is what Mimi Faust had to say.
Freddie O caught up with her.
And here's what she had to say about Stevie J and Faith getting married.
Listen, if it's real, congratulations to the both of them.
Faith, Stevie, congratulations.
Faith, I don't know what's going on.
I think I need to give you a pair of my glasses
because you need to read that contract thoroughly.
Born and fed.
I don't understand that last part.
Read that contract thoroughly.
Born and fed.
What's that mean?
I mean, I guess she's just saying, you know,
Stevie's kind of shysty when it comes to the contracts.
So just make sure you're in it.
Born and fed?
I don't know what born and fed means.
I've never heard that.
All right, now, Faith was on lip service,
and we actually asked her about Stevie J,
and this was a while ago.
Here's what she had to say about Stevie J back then
when he was dirty dogging.
We've always been very close.
I mean, he's going to always be my friend regardless.
But whatever it was about him that convinced me
this particular time to think that,
oh, wow, you're really trying to do something different.
His actions. I've been through too much
to not pay attention to stuff that don't make sense.
Can he get back in? I doubt it.
I'm not going to say that, you know,
there might not be times that we
might, you know, hook up
in the next few years. I don't know.
That's if somebody don't, you know, snatch me up.
So he went from a casual hookup
to husband. This was back in March of
2017. No, I guess she thought
she could take him seriously and he wasn't really
you know, putting in the work that he
was supposed to. Running around. Right.
You went from casual hookup to husband. Well, no.
First they were dating, then she said she was done
with him for a little while. But she also said that she
would hook up from him for a while. She would.
Girls, girls, girls. Now I'm saying, I guess she ended up
not just hooking up, but marrying him
now. So, you know, congratulations to them.
Only thing is the family was upset.
Faith's son, CJ Wallace, who oddly enough is also Steve's godson, wasn't invited.
Yeah, he's very upset because he's Stevie J's godson.
So I guess now he's a stepson and godson.
The family just wasn't invited.
Nobody knew.
Nobody got the heads up.
Now they said Stevie J was like,
we got to get married today
because they didn't want her to tell her friends and family
and then talk her out of it.
Because, you know, that could have happened.
She also said that the song A Minute
is the explanation of why she felt like
they needed to get married.
Right, and that's the song that she recorded with Stevie J.
Check out a piece of that. Oh, and the love that you and I didn't even take a minute.
And the love didn't take a minute.
You're more than I want more.
Nothing's impossible.
Your love is so incredible.
Oh, and the love that you and I didn't even take a minute.
It didn't even take a minute.
Jesus Christ.
The sound quality of that record is horrible.
Well, they just recorded it.
Is that mixed?
They just did that?
Yeah.
Now they got a video for it and everything.
Oh, my God.
That don't sound mix-mastered or nothing.
God, they wrote a song about how long it took for them to get married before they were married, too.
That's gangster.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
All right.
Thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, when we come back, we have Sherri Shepherd.
She'll be joining us, so we'll kick it with her when we come back.
So don't move.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building, Sherri Shepherd.
Miss Sherri Shepherd is here.
Hey.
How are you, Sherri?
I'm good.
It's so nice to be back.
I feel like I'm home in New York.
Really?
I miss it so much.
Is it awkward when you have to do the view as a guest?
No, not at all.
It literally feels like I'm back with my family, and I jump right back in.
Do you know how to be a guest, or you still feel like you were in there doing a little
hosting, jumping on the prompters, cutting people off maybe?
Yeah, I was cutting them off all the time when I went on there Monday.
You know, being a comic, that's what you do.
If you see dead space, you just jump in. Fill it in. You fill it in. So, yeah. It was good being on there Monday. It's just, you know, being a comic, that's what you do. If you see dead space,
you just jump in.
Fill it in.
You fill it in.
So, yeah.
So it was good being on The View.
It was good,
but I don't want to go back.
Well, congratulations
on a new show.
Thank you.
Trial and error.
I'm excited.
Yes.
You know, it's exciting
to leave something
and stepping out on faith
because leaving The View
and going,
I don't know if I'm going to work.
I don't know
if I'm going to get another job, but in leaving something that's stable and then stepping out on faith because leaving The View and going, I don't know if I'm going to work. I don't know if I'm going to get another job.
But in leaving something that's stable
and then stepping out on faith and then
booking something that's so good.
The ratings have been really, really good
for the show. So I'm excited.
So on The View, you really just can't do
other things like acting?
They kind of work around you. That's what I was like.
I did the movie Precious. I did the movie Top
Five. I did Dancing with the Stars. So they work around you. But Angela, it was at, because I did the movie Precious. I did the movie Top Five. I did Dancing with the Stars.
So they work around you.
But Angela, it was at the point where it was like,
I really wanted to do my acting.
And I knew it was time to leave because I felt like if you came
the next season, I will be sitting there with my cards
asking you questions, being envious and being jealous of you.
And I don't live in that space.
So I knew it was time to leave.
And God was just like, it was just on me. It's time to go. And everybody said't live in that space. So I knew it was time to leave. And God was just like,
it was just on me. It's time to go. And everybody said, you crazy. You leaving a good job. I was
making great money. You got this platform. And I said, it's time to go. Great risk comes great
reward. Absolutely. And you got to, and always my mantra for life is you got to run towards the
very thing that you fear because on the other side of it is some awesome things and
so on the other side of that fear of sitting there in the mirror going what am i gonna do
oh my gosh and god going i got you we done been here before sherry dream bigger that
niecey nan said that to me also you know what you did that i really felt what when you was online
and your ex-husband had the nerve to be on this dating site talking about the amount of money
that he was making girl black people meet... Girl, blackpeoplemeet.com
Yeah. I know I just
gave y'all business, but be careful.
All your child support money, he was on their floors.
I was on a flight.
Niecy was the one that showed me.
I said, why you always showing me stuff about him
that's bad and you introduce me to him?
I know you can't help it. Wait, wait.
And she came, she said, diva,
look at this profile I done found on Sal. And I said, she said, Diva, look at this profile I didn't found on Sal.
And I said, how did you find that?
Because, you know, Niecy liked to matchmake.
Even if the stuff don't work, she still liked to matchmake people.
And she was trying to get her work on a profile for her girlfriend.
And they found Sal.
Because if you look up people that's over 6'4", black, he comes up.
Because there ain't that many tall black men, I guess, in L.A. on blackpeoplemeet.com.
And so his picture came up, and it said salary.
And it said over $100,000 a year.
Go ahead, Sherry.
Yeah, go ahead, Sherry.
That's your money.
Go ahead, Sherry.
And it said world traveler.
I said, where has he traveled?
With your money, a lot of places.
World travel.
The Jersey? I said, where has he traveled? With your money, a lot of places. World travel.
To Jersey?
Where you from?
Over to Hackensack?
And maybe friggin' Patterson to get your... Oh, please.
So you're still paying child support, of course.
Yeah, child support until his son is 18.
You know how that goes.
How much a month?
Oh, my God, it's a lot.
This is very rare.
It's $4,100, right?
This is a conversation you have with men.
He used to be six, but we got it down because I had to pay back child support.
He tried to get more.
But this is a killer.
You had to pay back child support?
This is a killer, girl.
You a deadbeat mommy?
I'm not a deadbeat mother, but we were fighting in court.
But the thing was is when we was in – but wait, let me finish with the profile thing.
We'll go back to that.
So I was so mad I was on a plane drinking, and I had to go on the ramp.
I was so mad.
I don't drink, but I was drinking.
I needed a drink after I saw that, and I was like, I just want y'all ladies to know,
that's doggone money that I gave him from the prenup.
Okay, that's my money.
And he's a freaking world traveler.
World traveler.
He ain't even got no car.
I was so, and I could, my publicist was like texting me on the plane going,
stop it.
And I was like, no, I ain't ready because I'm mad.
You probably got him hot.
You probably brought attention to his profile page.
He probably ended up getting a date.
But then one of his pictures was a picture of my hands.
We had gone on a honeymoon to Anguilla.
I love Anguilla.
I love Anguilla.
That's the place to be.
And so my hands were on his shoulder, and you could see the wedding ring,
the pair of hands.
And he had cut my body off.
But this is why I know he did it, so that a woman could go,
are you married?
And then he could go, well, you know that actress actress Sherri Shepherd. Oh, yeah, I know her.
Oh, yeah, she gave me
roles. You know, so a woman
could be like, oh, that's Sherri Shepherd. She awful.
And, you know, then you get the women
in. But when we were in arbitration,
because, you know, when you go through a divorce, you got to go
through arbitration. And we were figuring
out child support, and he
said, I want a million dollar life insurance policy.
And it is for if something happened to me and the child support stopped, then the money
would keep coming in.
And I said, I'm not.
Who gets it?
Do you know anybody with a baby daddy?
They got a million dollar life insurance policy.
On the mom?
Yeah, a mom.
Like she got a life insurance policy from the baby daddy in case he can't pay child
support.
Hold on.
Explain this to me.
The baby mama.
Yes.
So they wanted me.
He wanted me to pay an insurance policy of, you know.
For him to get insurance if something happens to you.
If something happens to me.
So the child support keeps coming.
And I said, no.
I got a lot of baby mamas.
And never has anyone had a life insurance policy.
And I said, no, I'm not.
No. I said, he going to try to kill me.
Yeah, that's what that feels like.
I'm like, no, he can try to kill me.
And so, you know, when you got all white attorneys and lawyers.
Oh, Miss Shepard, you are so funny.
And I said, no.
No, he's really going to try to kill me.
I said, I'm from Chicago.
He's from Detroit.
Now, I'm not saying he going to.
I'm not saying that he would try to kill me, him himself.
Right.
But everybody knows people.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hell, I have people from Dancing with the Stars,
some of them Russian dancers going, we know people.
And I'm saying.
You're not walking down the streets of Chicago no time soon.
Unless you want to.
He don't never come out of you.
Don't even try that.
When you from this, it stays in you.
That's why I had to hide that from Barbara Walters all the time.
Because it would have scared her.
One time, I'm telling you, Charlamagne,
I was on the phone with
ex-husband number one, not 1A, ex-husband
number one, and I was cursing him out
because he had pissed me off because I was going through a custody
battle with Jeffrey. And I was
cursing him out because I thought everybody had left
the view. So it was just me in my dressing
room. And he said that one thing to me,
Angie, you know when a man cheat on you and you're like, well, what
she got that I... And he said something
to me and he said, she a good...
Good b****.
He said that, girl,
and I went off.
In my phone,
you ain't got an N.
When you take a...
I'll pay for it.
And I was going off.
Why you mad at me
for asking a question
and I answered you?
You know what?
It just...
It brought out
the Chi-town in me.
I did not know
that Barbara Walters
had walked in my room
standing behind me.
See, this is my view voice Hello everybody
I turned around in the middle
Enough you don't even know me
Cause I'll come and I will knock all of the
And I turned around and I said
Hi Barbara
Is everything okay
And she goes dear is there a problem
I'm auditioning for a role
Girl if I could have gotten red
If I was high yellow and had gotten red,
and I said, Barbara, no, no, everything is fine.
Everything is fine.
And she went, okay, dear.
And she walked out.
And I was like, I ain't even playing with you.
I was so, and I said, oh, my, if you make me lose my job, I swear to good,
oh, my goodness.
You didn't think Barbara would understand?
I'm sure Barbara would have been in that situation.
That's a woman thing.
Yeah, but it's different when you're, like, upper class,
Fifth Park Avenue cursing out than, you know, you from Chi-town cursing out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a big difference.
You know, they do stuff different.
They just take you to court and it's litigate.
Yeah.
Like, I show up at your house with my cousins and now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My sisters.
Like, we ready to fight.
We got rollers in our hair.
Black people get it lit. White people get it litigated.
Thank you. That's exact.
You know how that works.
And I did.
And I said, okay, I gotta
control myself. But it was that kind of thing.
And I said, no, I'm not
doing no million dollars because I think
he gonna kill me. So we got it down,
down, down.
I said, I don't know anybody who had
a life insurance policy. But you know, people can do that, down. So I said, I don't know anybody who had a life insurance policy.
But, you know, people can.
They can do that, though.
You do do it.
So I made, yeah.
People can do that, like, on their employees and things like that.
You can take out insurance policies on your employees.
Well, I wrote a letter.
I wrote a letter to the courts.
I was like, I'm just letting you know I'm protesting this policy.
If something happened to me, I don't care.
Don't give him no money.
If I get gangrene and cut my foot off Or something
I die
He did it
I just want you to know that
I don't care
If I just go on the food fast
And I die
I'm just telling you
Look at everything
Alright when we come back

We have Sherri Shepherd in the building.
Yee. Well, Sherri, you're looking really great these days. Thank you, girl.
I'm 135 days off of
sugar. Oh, okay. So you're diabetic.
I'm type 2 diabetic.
So I'm off sugar, and it just
like being off sugar changed, it changed my life. I'm type 2 diabetic. So I'm off sugar. And it just like being off sugar changed.
It changed my life.
I'm much more alert.
I'm just clear headed.
I'm focused.
Aren't you like, man, I wish I would have went to the doctor earlier and figured out what I needed to do.
I do.
I'm not saying it's hard.
Because for three weeks I was curled up naked in a fetal position moaning.
Right.
Sugar is more addictive than cocaine. It really is. I never did. Well, I smoke cocaine once in a blunt with position, moaning. Right. Sugar is more addictive than cocaine.
It really is.
I never did cocaine.
Well, I smoked cocaine once in a blunt with some weed.
Did you get addicted to it, though?
I liked it, though.
Great eye.
I'd do it again by accident.
Well, not now because I'm 40.
You'd do it again by accident.
No, I'm very addicted to it.
No, not at 40.
Trust me.
Not at 40.
At 40, you'd do that cocaine lace with all that stuff,
and you'd get Bell's palsy.
What the hell is Bell's palsy?
Yeah, exactly.
Your face would... One side of your face would just fall. That's what happens at 40 and you get Bell's palsy. What the hell is Bell's palsy? Yeah, exactly. Your face, one side of your face just falls.
That's what happens at 40 when you be trying to do drugs.
You get a face stroke.
Your nerves will freeze up.
See, you can't be starting drugs middle age.
If you're going to start drugs and get addicted,
you got to do that stuff early and get addicted.
But when you try to start drugs and you get addicted middle age,
like your heart
start hurting.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like then your penis
ain't working.
There you go.
Like it's just all kinds
of maladies that come.
So you did coke before?
I've never,
no, I was a Jehovah's Witness.
I never did.
I grew up Jehovah's Witness too.
I know you did.
I was so sheltered.
I never did any of that.
That's crazy you say that
because I grew up around
a bunch of witnesses
and they all was on something.
Are you serious?
No, I was so nerdy
and sheltered and it was very strict upbringing.
So I was in field service all the time.
I was so sheltered.
I remember being at a party when I was probably, when I first started stand-up,
and they were passing around something, and people were putting stuff on their gums,
and I didn't know what they were doing.
I had no idea.
I was so naive.
Rubbing that coke on their gums.
They was rubbing it on their gums.
Somebody had a little dollar bill and some foil.
And I was just like, what?
Oh, my gosh.
Being so sheltered and starting to do stand-up comedy, right?
How was that like for your family?
They thought it was the devil, the world of the devil.
And they didn't want me to do it.
But now, you know, they take credit for everything.
I was with her.
I supported her.
But I saw a lot of stuff growing up.
Not growing up,
but when I was doing stand-up
and I was just so sheltered.
Like, we were talking
on somewhere about, like,
people doing menage a trois
and all kinds of sex stuff
going on.
And I didn't,
all that stuff was so,
it was just,
I didn't know what it was.
And I remember my girlfriend,
she passed away,
but she used to be
on Monique's show, The Parkers, Yvette Wilson. God bless her, passed away, but she used to be on Monique's show,
The Parkers,
Yvette Wilson.
God bless her, Yvette.
Yeah, she used to be
on The Parkers
and she was dating
a rapper at the time.
And I swear to gosh,
oh, jeez,
they were in a room one time
and I went to see her.
They asked you for a menage?
No, but I didn't know
what that was.
So she called me up.
She was dating a rapper.
It was her boyfriend
and she called me up
to the rapper.
It was the two, and I would tell them it was the Airbnb and Rockham. Those And she called me up Who was the rapper? It was the two
And I will tell them
It was the Airbnb and Rakim
Those were the two
So who was the one
That didn't talk?
Eric B
It was Eric B
He was the one
That never talked
So they were up in the room
And I remember
I was sitting there
And I was so
Like literally
I had two French braids
In my hair
White bobby socks
And white tennis shoes
With overalls
With the bow
That's how sheltered I was
And I remember Yvette And I remember Yvette Had bow. That's how sheltered I was.
And I remember Yvette and I remember Yvette had been drinking and they were kissing and I was sitting in the chair like, oh, my gosh, what am I supposed to do?
They just kissed.
And I remember, gosh, I would love to see Eric B. now.
And I remember he looked at me and I was like, what are you looking at me for?
You said that?
Yeah.
No, in my eyes.
My eyes said that.
Like, what are you looking at me for?
My eyes were like really wide.
What are you looking at me for?
And I remember Yvette looked at me
and she's like, come on!
Come on! I was like, mm-mm.
Mm-mm.
My mama told me about this. Mm-mm.
This from the... Mm-mm.
And I remember running to the door
and Yvette was like, where are you going?
And I was like, I gotta go get on the bus.
I'm going to hell if I get out of here.
I gotta go back and feel service.
That was my almost.
For you, Sherry, growing up, how did your parents explain sex to you?
Like, what did they tell you about sex?
Did they ever have that talk?
My mother said, keep your dress down and your panties up.
Don't cock your legs open for every Tom, Dick, and Harry.
That was all the sex talk I got.
And to this day, I was like, who is Tom, Dick, and Harry?
I know who Dick is.
Oh, Lord.
He was like, I found that out,
and he's very, very nice.
That was all the sex talk I got.
I was very sheltered.
I knew nothing about sex.
So how did you find out about it?
Like, when I lost my virginity.
That's the first time you found out about sex?
When I lost it.
Well, I mean, I knew about it
because I heard about it from the kids in school.
You know, and this is what made me so mad because all the girls in school was like,
oh, my God, you're going to be moaning and you're going to be screaming.
And so that's what I thought it was like.
And you know what?
I got diarrhea the next day.
That's what I got, frigging, when I lost my virginity.
I'm like, where are all the moaning?
Was he put in the wrong place?
Wrong hole.
Oh, my God.
You might still be a virgin.
Why diarrhea?
I think I was straight.
No, please.
I don't want nobody thinking it was no backdoor stuff ever, never.
I still don't even know about that.
Don't you put that out there.
First time, Sherri?
Wow.
You saw you can't say nothing over here.
Wow. It was not. nothing over here. Wow.
It was not.
It was not.
So what was the experience like?
Because he climbed up in my friend's window,
and I thought I was going moaning and groaning.
It didn't happen.
It was Gilbert.
Damn, Gilbert going to be on Instagram today.
I'm Gilbert.
That was me.
She shouted out.
I gave her diarrhea.
I don't know if that's nothing to brag about.
Gave that girl diarrhea.
Yo, sexually transmitted diarrhea is nuts.
That is stupid.
Wow.
Stop.
And then he, I didn't know nothing about it.
And do you know, I wrote about it in my diary.
And my sister found my diary.
And she gave it to my mother.
And my mother gave it to the elders of the congregation.
And you got this fellowship.
I didn't get this fellowship.
I got put on public
reproof. And so it was three old
men who brought me in the room
with my father. They met my father, sat there
and they questioned me for three hours.
Very, very
you know, and as a teenager, that's
something that's so intimate and they asked me
stuff like, did he digitally penetrate
you? I don't know what digital
penetrate, I didn't know what that meant.
Yeah, but look at you, girl.
You know all the lingo.
I do, I do.
She had a waving finger.
I didn't know what that meant at that time.
And with my dad sitting right there
and they asked me all of these terrible questions.
It was very traumatic.
And then at the end, they said,
were you stimulated?
Did you enjoy it?
You got three old men asking you.
Oh my God, that's awful.
And see now, I'm just like, wait a minute.
Y'all was just, wait a minute.
You was old men.
I'm a young girl.
You just, and you asked me these questions.
Why are you asking me these questions?
I'm trying to get your rocks up.
That's disgusting.
Yeah, it was really traumatic.
Did they ask you about the diarrhea?
I did not tell them that.
I've only told you and Angela and this entire room of 25 people.
Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
And everybody watching.
And everybody listening and watching.
My son, who listens to the show, now knows his mama got diarrhea when she lost her virginity.
Jeez Louise, Jeffrey, turn off the radio and go to summer camp, would you?
Listen, so for the kids out there, don't do it.
You'll get diarrhea.
Thank you.
By the way, that's a good thing to tell your daughters.
That's a good thing to tell your daughters.
I got two of them.
I'm going to definitely tell them one of them.
Tell them, exactly.
Exactly.
All right, when we come back, we got more with Sherri
Shepard. We got to talk about her son
and also she was on Family Feud
and it got a little crazy. Keep it locked. It's the
Breakfast Club. Good morning.
DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne
the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
We have Sherri Shepard in the building
and Charlamagne, she's dying to ask
you something. You got to tell me, Charlamagne, my son
is 13 years old.
He is hormonal.
He has changed.
He challenges me.
He's sullen.
He's moody.
I don't know what to do. He even, he wake up every day with a heart on.
I don't know what to do.
That's normal.
That's actually healthy.
That's normal.
Every day, like there's no pill I could give him.
No amoxicillin.
Like five pills, four pills, three pills?
Like 40.
I haven't had one in two weeks.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah, so he should be glad.
I don't even...
I think that's very normal for men to wake up.
That means they're healthy.
Like, literally, I prayed with him at night,
and we were praying, and he was praying,
and I saw the covers moving.
And I said, Jeffrey, what are you doing?
Stop doing them sexy prayers with your son, Sherry.
But that's what he said, Sherry.
He said, I'm touching myself.
And I said, Jeffrey, you can't pray and touch yourself.
And he said, well, but mommy, it feel good when I touch myself.
And it feel good when I pray to Jesus.
I didn't even know what to say.
I just walked out the room.
It makes sense.
I just walked out the room.
I said, you know, what is it?
I'm like, I'm at a loss.
At the same time, you don't want to tell him it's bad.
It's bad.
You can't touch yourself.
Like, my son is so honest.
Two things can be true, though.
It can feel good when he touches himself, and it can feel good when he brings you in.
That's what he said.
It does.
He's like, so they're mutually not exclusive.
Why can't I do them together?
And I thought, you're going to get diarrhea.
You're going to get diarrhea, boy.
I am going through this thing.
He liked these girls.
And you know what it is?
There's not that many little black girls in his school.
And he liked, because he came in and he said, Mommy, I like white girls.
That's what he said.
Because there's only a couple black girls.
But, you know, I learned a lot about men from my son.
The little black girls get mean with him.
Like sometimes they don't want to speak.
Sometimes they act crazy.
And he's like, why do you act so crazy?
And I'm like, I don't know.
So I keep trying to tell
little girls to be nicer
so he can come towards you
but the other girls
see him and they go
hey Jeffrey
and they want to feel his hair
and so I'm trying to
Isn't the little white girls
nicer than the black girls?
He said they're nicer
he said look
and Camille
she always moves her neck
and she said
don't talk to me today Jeffrey
I don't want that flower
and he said
she keep moving her neck
and I said well unfortunately
Jeffrey that's going to last your whole life that's just how we are our neck moves so I don't want that flower. And he said, she keep moving her neck. And I said, well, unfortunately, Jeffrey, that's going to last your whole life.
That's just how we are.
Our neck moves.
So I don't know if you have any advice.
Snoop said he would mentor him.
And I was like, okay, all right.
Yeah, you just got to let them grow and let them be around a lot of other strong male figures.
Okay.
I had that in my life.
But then I also had like, I had the strong male figures who, like, my father would cheat on my mom
and when I asked him why he cheated on my mom, he'd look me in the eye
and tell me, one day you're going to understand.
You know what I'm saying? Okay, alright, so I'm going to have to,
okay, well, maybe one day I'm going to drop him off with you.
And you know, I'm going to have some more
kids that look like him, too, you know,
sometimes it's hard, too, for kids. I know,
I went from going to, from public school
where all, like, black kids to going to private
school where I was, like, one of a handful.
Not only, yeah.
And it did feel really awkward.
I was glad that I was able to grow up, you know, knowing who I was.
I lived in a black neighborhood, went to an all-black school.
But then I went to a school that was predominantly white.
And it's a different experience.
It is.
The black kids that grew up going to schools like that, they acted so different than I did.
I know.
That's how my son is.
You know, he's, like, he's a little nerd. I know that's how my son is. He, you know, he's like,
he's a little nerd.
I love him,
but he'd be the little nerd trying to rap.
So he could be around
some of his own,
you know.
Girl, my son tried to do
the break,
he think he'd break dance
and rap and I'm like,
oh baby,
I got to get you around.
Like, we got to join
Jack and Jill.
This is...
Jack and Jill is great.
Oh gosh.
That's my final question.
Name something a lady cop
might do to her husband
in the bedroom.
My initial answer on the family feud was cut his penis off.
That's what I said.
Why?
I hit the buzzer.
That's what I was thinking.
You said it was such conviction.
Name something a lady cop might do to her husband in the bedroom.
Cut his penis off.
You know what?
I was thinking about the ex-husband 1A because he had served some papers on me
and I was already mad when I hit the buzzer and I said, cut his penis off.
You know how many young boys got scared when they heard that?
Hell yeah.
That's why you have to teach a young man to be secure.
Anybody that was secure, their penis was not twitching.
Okay.
See?
Did your penis twitch?
No.
I said that.
It doesn't move now.
Well, it don't work, but aside from that.
I had to go back and look through the question again. I was like, did I miss the question? What was the question? No. I said that. It doesn't move now. Well, it don't work, but aside from that. I had to go back and listen to the question again.
I was like,
did I miss the question?
What was the question?
See, it's hard to go,
sherry, sherry.
Don't be doing your therapy
on this show.
Don't work out
your marriage issue, sherry.
Would you like to
re-answer that question?
In my head,
it would have been cuff him.
That was the second question.
Okay, there we go.
It just, you know, I didn't even think about it.
So what you heard was, what would you do to husband 1A in the bedroom?
Yeah, cut his penis off.
Gotcha.
So now I got all these people going, this is terrible what you said.
And I'm like, I'm a comic.
Y'all stop it with all of the genital mutilation.
People got mad.
You know, it's like if you're a comic, you're supposed to tell the emperor he has no clothes.
That's what we do as comics.
Not turn your phones off and then I'm going to tell you.
So it's just like, so just like relax.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Relax.
If you know I ain't going to cut your penis off, you already good.
There you go.
All right.
It's Sherri Shepherd, y'all.
Trial and error.
Make sure y'all check it out.
It's every Thursday on NBC.
And then Brian Banks is coming out in December at movie theaters near you.
Sherri Shepherd, it's The Breakfast Club.
Thank you for coming.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Oh, Charlamagne, I meant to ask you, how was Catfish Trolls yesterday?
He didn't watch it.
I was doing my podcast.
He didn't watch it.
He was sleeping.
I was typing, actually.
I was typing, and I was retweeting what people said.
I didn't actually watch the show, though.
But Catfish Trolls is a special event that comes on MTV every Wednesday at 10 p.m.
I'm one of the executive producers.
But we just go out there, and we find people who are trolling people on the Internet,
which is ironic because I've trolled myself.
Oh, so then you know exactly what's going on.
I have a lot of expertise in that area.
All right.
Yes.
All right. Well, let's get to the rumors. Let a lot of expertise in that area. All right. Yes. All right.
Well, let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Jay-Z.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, let's talk about the Made in America Festival, right?
That's in Philly.
Normally, it is going to be in Philly again this year.
Now, they had a five-year contract
with the city that ended in 2017. They did
renew it for one year, but now
a rep for the mayor of Philly
has said that this is the last year
the festival will be held on the Ben Franklin
Parkway. So, Jay-Z and Roc Nation,
for them, that was news because they had no
idea about this previously.
Well, I wouldn't Philly want that money. I'm
sure that concert brings in a lot of revenue.
I guess they're saying there's a lot of traffic and it clogs things up.
I actually went last year for the first time.
Surely y'all have basketball games.
Y'all have football games.
Y'all have baseball games.
All those things cause traffic as well.
Well, a rep for the mayor said when the festival first started,
it was intended to provide a unique attraction to the city.
On the otherwise quiet Labor Day weekend,
over the years, tourism has grown,
and the need for an event of this skill at this location
may no longer be necessary.
They want more money.
That's what it sounds like.
I don't know what it is,
because that is really great for Philly, you know?
And Jay-Z has revealed in a statement
that they try to also cancel this year's festival.
So I guess that didn't work out.
He said, we are disappointed that the mayor would evict us
from the heart of the city through a media outlet
without a sit-down meeting, notice, dialogue,
or proper communication.
It signifies zero appreciation for what Made in America
has built alongside the phenomenal citizens of the city.
That's very disrespectful.
In fact, this administration immediately greeted us
with a legal letter trying to stop the 2018 event.
Well, here's the thing.
The name of the festival is Made in America, so they can do that anywhere in America.
And I'm sure it's a lot of cities that will open them.
We'll welcome them with open arms.
Where would you like to see it?
Chicago would be nice.
I think Chicago would be great.
They do a big festival in Chicago, don't they?
They do Made in America.
Let me see.
Chicago, Philly, Detroit.
Oh, Detroit.
Detroit would be dope. Detroit would be dope. I'm not mad at Detroit. Oh, Detroit. Detroit would be dope.
Detroit would be dope.
I'm not mad at that.
That would be nice.
Why not Detroit?
Detroit's a city.
Even Houston.
Detroit and Houston.
They have all these new stadiums there and everything, too.
Exactly.
All right.
Now, let's talk about Dwayne Johnson.
When he was on Watch What Happens Live, he had this to say about your boy Tyrese, whether
or not they could ever speak again, make up, or any of the above.
We haven't talked at all. And, you know, that whole thing with Tyrese
was, it was pretty disappointing,
because I'd been friends with
Tyrese for a very long time, and
you know, I always feel like a beef
requires two people to actually jump in
it, and it was really one-sided,
and he had voiced his opinion
a lot on social media,
and apparently he was going through some stuff, too, in his personal life.
But, no, we haven't talked.
And I don't see where we would.
Right.
To me, there's no need to have a conversation.
Wow.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Did The Rock just fire Tyrese from Fast and Furious?
He sure did.
Wow.
Because when I hear there's no need for us to have a conversation,
there's no need for us to talk, that means how are we going to work together?
Now, let's be very clear.
According to Forbes, The Rock is actually the highest paid actor ever on the Forbes list in history.
Wow.
He is living his best life.
I don't think we're going to see Tyrese in the next Fast and Furious.
Who do you think they're going to replace him with?
Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish, I guess.
Tiffany Haddish?
Tank?
He can do it.
Tank?
Yeah.
All right, Chance the Rapper put out four new singles.
What a surprise.
He did say he was putting out some new music.
I guess it wasn't a whole new album, but he did put out four fresh new singles.
Now, here's a snippet of the one that everybody's been buzzing about on social media.
It's called Workout. So many C's, I could have a birdhouse. I'm in love on a mama. I hope it work out.
I hope it work out.
Luckily, my ex-uncle, I don't eat so she can't get no lunch with me.
I don't reach so she can't get in touch with me.
Can't be buzzed with me.
Don't know what to be.
That sounds dope.
It does, but Chance Music makes puppets dance.
Like, whenever I hear Chance Music, I just see a bunch of puppets dancing,
like Sesame Street characters doing the In My Feelings Challenge.
You know what I'm saying?
You can't see a bunch of Sesame Street characters doing the In My Feelings Challenge to that record.
You don't see the puppets dancing when Chance? No.
I don't know what that means.
Come on, I'm not the only person.
I'm not even high this morning.
You don't see the puppets dancing to that?
Are you sure you're not high?
You need to go to your therapist today, bro. I'm going Friday.
I see puppets dancing to that song.
Yeah, you need to go see your therapist today, bro.
In addition, there's a song, and I would have
loved to play I Might Need Security, but there's cursing
and the hook all throughout it in the background.
That song is dope too, yeah. Yes, but in that
song, he also reveals that he bought the
Chicagoist, which is a popular Chicago
magazine, and
you know, he said, I'm extremely excited to be continuing the work of the Chicagoist, an integral local platform for Chicagoist, which is a popular Chicago magazine. And you know, he said, I'm extremely excited to be
continuing the work of the Chicagoist, an integral
local platform for Chicago news,
events, and entertainment.
In the song, he says, I bought the Chicagoist just to
run you racist bitches out of business.
So, that's dope. Listen,
I got some issues. I'ma just buy your ish and
take it over. Alright, I'm
Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
Alright, thank you, Miss Ye and that is your Rumor Reports. Alright, thank you Miss Yee.
Charlemagne! Yes. Who you giving that
down to? You know, let's talk
F-Boys, man. It's a young
man named Kelton in Memphis,
Tennessee. This is by far one of the best
F-Boy stories I heard in a long time.
But he needs to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like
to have a word with him. Why you moan like that?
I don't know. He made it sound sexy. First of all, that wasn't me
moaning. It was Angela Yee. There's no way that I can Why you moan like that? I don't know. He made it sound sexy. First of all, that wasn't me moaning. It was Angelina.
Because there's no way
that I can talk and moan
at the same time.
That is absolutely impossible.
I always said that
you were very multi-talented.
You hear me talking.
I ain't take one breath
and you talk about
why you moan like that.
You know good or what,
that wasn't me.
You did moan.
No, I didn't.
Well, we can't wait to hear
about these F boys.
You know what?
Don't get a days up next, man.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
This don't be a donkey because right now you want some real donkey shit.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heel.
Did she get donkey of the day?
Please tell me.
Absolutely.
I have become donkey of the day.
It's the Breakfast Club, bitches.
You're a donkey.
Yes, Donkey of the Day for Thursday, July 19th goes to a young man named Kelton Griffin.
Now, Kelton is from Memphis, Tennessee.
Salute to everyone who listens to us on K97, 97.1 in Memphis.
Drop on the clues bombs for K97.
Okay.
Let me tell you something.
Whenever I hear women say all men are trash, I be like, relax.
Okay, all men aren't trash.
Just at certain points in our lives.
All right.
Mostly in our youth, we are trash.
Now, don't get me wrong.
Some young F-boys only grow physically, not spiritually, mentally, or emotionally.
So they grow from F-boys to F-men, but that's another conversation.
Today, we are talking about a trash-ass F-boy.
Okay, I got to give you all this one, women, all right?
Who hurt you?
I couldn't even defend this one if I tried, okay?
If a woman says to you, Kelton Griffin is trash
after hearing this story, all you can say is,
well, I can see why you say that.
See, Kelton took a young lady named Faith Pugh
out on a date, but in true F-Boy
fashion, he didn't have a car. But that's
cool. You know, Faith got a whip. A nice
little black Volvo. She's stunting on these
hoes waiting Memphis. So, Kelton and Faith
went on a date in Faith's car, but Kelton
drove, though. Okay, that's the least you can do when you ask a woman on a date in Faith's car, but Kelton drove, though.
Okay, that's the least you can do when you ask a woman on a date,
but you don't have a car.
Take the wheel, my brother.
Take the wheel.
And also, my brothers, don't ask a woman on a date if you don't have a vehicle to pick her up in.
Now, if you both agree to meet somewhere cool, you know what I mean?
You take your Ubers, your Cavs, whatever you got to do,
your buses, however you get there,
but if you ask her out and tell her you want to pick her up and take her somewhere,
make sure you got your own wheels.
Borrow a friend's car. Do something. But to ask a woman to take her out and then to tell her you want to pick her up and take her somewhere, make sure you got your own wheels. Borrow a friend's car.
Do something. But to ask a woman to take her out and then to tell her you don't got no car
and you want to drive hers, that's just a different
level of trifling. But Faith earned
her name because Faith has taken
the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
In Faith's case, she went on the first
date even though she already saw
the first sign that he was an F-boy.
Would you like to hear how
the date progressed let's go to wreg channel 3 cbs for the report please faith pew says when her
date showed up saturday he didn't even bring his own car pew says she knew kelton griffin from high
school but hadn't really spoken to him much when he reached out and suggested dinner they took pew's
black volvo then griffin couldn't make up his mind where he wanted to take her. They ended up
at this airport area gas station.
He asked me, could I go in the gas station for him
to get a cigar? Turns out that was a
mistake. He just drove off. I came outside
and my car was gone. Her mother picked
her up and then she got a surprising
message from her god sister.
The same man who had just stolen her car
had asked her god sister out.
I said, okay, well send me the address to where you at and I'm on my way and tell him to come on.
They used the GPS tracking on her phone to tail him all the way to this drive-in theater
where they say they find Griffin in Pew's stolen car with her god sister on another date.
Then he let her drive, so she drove him to the drive-in.
He didn't even have any money. She actually
paid their way to get in the drive-in
just so I could get my car back.
They called police. Griffin was arrested
on the spot.
Kelton asked Faith to go on a date, didn't have a car,
took her car, pulled up to a gas station, told her
to go get him a cigar, then drove off, picked up
another woman, made that woman drive him
to the movies and paid for the movie.
Sheesh.
Dropping a clues bomb for Kelton.
I'm a stern believer that whatever you are, be the best at it,
and Kelton is one of the greatest F-Boys of all time.
I must say the F-Boy I used to be is proud of this young man,
but the man I've become is disgusting because I'm the type of person,
I like to plan all the way to the end.
Of course your good plan is never God's plan for you, but you can at I like to plan all the way to the end. Of course, your good plan is never God's plan for you.
But, you know, you can at least attempt to plan all the way to the end.
And in the case of Kelton, he didn't think this through because what I want to know is,
how was you going to return Faye's car?
What were you going to say to her after you just drove off, left her in a gas station?
Like, what did you think was going to happen?
But here's the thing, Kelton, you know, he is who he is.
See, Kelton got arrested for robbing a Shoney's.
Think about that.
Who robs a Shoney's?
They got the fresh food bar, all you care to eat family favorites on Monday, endless seafood on Friday.
Like, they literally giving away food.
So who takes from a giver like Shoney's?
Kelton, let's go back to WREG TV Channel 3 CBS for the report again.
In 2016, police say he and two other men ate out and then robbed the restaurant.
Robbed the Shoney's after I eat there.
We're going to rob this place on a Wednesday after we partake in this endless breakfast for dinner.
But, you know, we did what we had to do.
Okay, look, man, Kelton is who he is.
He's a grimy F-boy, okay, who can't be trusted on any level.
And people like that don't really evolve. Alright, there's
nothing good in Kelton. Goodness is
about character, integrity, honesty,
kindness, generosity, moral courage,
and more than anything else, it is about
how you treat people, okay?
Kelton?
Goodness? Nah. Okay, goodness
is a concept that career F-boys
will never grasp, okay? It's the difference
between having F-boy tendencies and being an F-boy to the core.
Which one do you think Kelton is?
Please let Remy Ma give Kelton Griffin the biggest hee-haw.
Hee-haw, hee-haw.
You stupid mother f***er.
You dumb.
Still impressed, though.
You're impressed.
All right.
Still slightly impressed by people who have that kind of, I wouldn't call it ambition.
The courage to do that kind of stuff.
Gall.
Gall, there you go.
Yes, the unmitigated gall to do that kind of stuff and get away with it.
How is he convincing women to do this type of stuff?
This sounds like an old Charlemagne trick.
Never.
Never.
I always have my own car.
As far as her paying for everything, yes.
I recall those days.
You remember that one time when Charlamagne...
No, shut up.
Okay, you know what.
When Charlamagne and Lil Duvall walked out on a check?
No, not that time.
I never walked out on a check in my life.
I'm talking about when the girl wouldn't let him upstairs in her house and they had to...
In the car?
Let's not do this now, Envy.
That was an Angelus friend, actually.
That's your friend, too, clearly.
That is my friend.
You know what? Forget it. Forget it. All right. So's your friend, too, clearly. That is my friend. You know what?
Forget it.
Forget it.
All right.
So thank you for that talk here today.
Up next is Ask Yee, 800-585-1051.
If you got a question for Yee, you can call her right now.
Now, Yee, we got a guy on the line that wants to talk to you about, he said his friend snitched
on him and he wants to talk to you about how he should handle it.
Imagine your best friend sends some messages and calls the police on you. That's crazy.
Well, he's on the line. Happens every day, B.
He wants to talk to you, so we'll kick it with him
and find out what happened when we come back.
Ask E is next. It'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. It's time
for Ask E. Hello, who's this? Tony from Miami. Sounds like you're going through it, Tony, manlamagne Tha God, We Are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee.
Hello, who's this?
Tony from Miami.
Sounds like you're going through it, Tony, man.
What's the matter, Tony?
Yo, my best friend just texted all my secrets to my mom.
To your mom?
Like, what kind of secrets?
Like, I be having people in my crib and sneaking people in.
Okay.
That's it?
I mean, like, a lot of shit.
How old are you?
Tony, what are these secrets that are so bad?
Yeah, how old are you?
My bad.
I'm 26.
Oh, you're 26.
You still live with your mom.
Damn you.
So what are some of the things that, some of these secrets?
Because it can't just be that people come in the house.
I mean, really, that's it.
So that's it?
That's the secret?
I mean, like, tell you some of my secrets
and then I'll be, like, doing drugs and stuff like that
in my crib and I'll be, like, stuff like that.
Okay, so why did your friend do this and now what?
Because he did it because me and him got into a fight
because I owe him money.
And then he's like, if you don't give me this money,
watch what I'm going to do, watch what I'm going to do.
And then an hour later,
the cops came to my house.
Damn.
And I asked him if it was him.
I asked him if he had anything to do with it.
And he's like,
oh, you're going to accuse me of this?
Okay, watch what I do.
If you accuse me, watch.
And then he texted my mom all this shit.
Like, oh, you think I called the cops?
Are you doing drugs?
Watch.
Nah, I'm going to tell your mom.
How long has this been your best friend and how much money you doing drugs? Watch. Nah, I'm going to tell your mom.
How long has this been your best friend and how much money you owe him?
I only owe him a hundred bucks.
And I've been giving him money like every week, five, ten bucks every week.
And he's been my best friend for years. That's the struggle.
Yeah.
Listen, there's a lot.
So this is your best friend?
I don't think this is your friend for real.
He don't call the cops on you, snitched on you to your mom.
That's your best friend?
He's crazy. but I love her.
What?
Wait, is this your best friend or are you guys dating?
Oh, you love her.
Nah, nah, this is my best friend.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't think it really is, number one.
So now what?
What's the problem now?
The cops got called.
Your mom knows all your secrets.
Now what?
Everything's out there.
I don't even know what to do.
I guess I should just, like, end that, right?
Well, first you need to get a job.
That's the first thing.
Do you have a job, sir?
Yeah, I'm on my way to work right now.
Where do you work at?
Supermarket.
Okay, so he's got a job.
He's got a job.
All right.
That's what you got to do.
Save money.
Get out your mom's house.
That way you can smoke and drink in your own apartment.
And that way you can pay your friend back $5 a week.
Thank you, Ask Envy.
For 36 months.
But, but. Tony, baby, you gotta get
your life together, okay?
Thank you, Yee. I love y'all.
Okay.
Oh my goodness.
Everyone call up. No judgment.
No judgment here. Let's go to
the next line. Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Sarah. Hey, Sarah.
What's your question for Ye you? Okay, I'm
in a one and a year
a year and a half relationship
with my boyfriend and he
told me he cheated
and then to find
out the girl is pregnant.
So my
question is
like he told me the truth
and I do love him,
but due to the fact that she's pregnant,
I don't think I'm going to stay in the relationship.
Okay.
I feel like this.
I've seen this work out, and I've seen people say,
and it's really the ball is in your court, okay?
Right.
He cheated on you.
Obviously, he had to be honest because there's a child potentially coming in this world.
He knows 100% that's his baby.
I'm not sure because he was like, that's not his.
But then again, I think it is his.
If it's not his baby, would you still want to be with him?
Yes.
I mean, I think only time will tell for you, Sarah.
Obviously, you know, I'm sure he regrets what he did.
And that's a really big, hard lesson. Yeah, he regretted because like we still go out and then we're going to go on a trip.
So you are still dating him? Yeah. Even after he told you? Yes. Listen, Sarah, I would say this,
you know, there's no right or wrong answer to what you're going to do here. I will say this.
Don't worry about what other people think about your
situation. Sometimes we get so caught up
in being embarrassed about what happened,
having to explain things to other people.
If you feel like this man is your
soulmate or you still love him or you still
want to try, I would never
tell you not to do that. If you feel like
he's learned his lesson, if you feel like
you can deal with the fact that he might
potentially, worst case scenario, that is his baby.
And now you are going to be involved in this child's life.
And you're okay with dealing with that because that is going to take some time.
You know, that's up to you.
Now, if you feel like this is too much for me to handle.
And if he keeps on doing things that indicate that he's still a cheater and he hasn't learned.
Then you have to be willing to walk away and be strong for yourself.
Okay. Okay?
Alright, Angela. Because it seems like
you want to be with him. Y'all still going on trips?
Yes. I still want to be with him.
Alright, well be honest with yourself.
Okay. Let him know
how you feel. Always communicate. Let him know
how you feel all the time. Okay.
Alright, Sarah. Good luck.
Damn it. Sheesh. I can't, you know.
Alright. Some real life problems. I don't know
if I can stay with somebody that got someone else pregnant,
but if you in love, you do crazy things
sometimes. There you go. Alright.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy.
Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club. It's
Ask Yee time. Hello. Who's this?
Alright. So, Angela, check me
out. I got a friend we're going to call Boy A.
He introduced me to a girl, right?
Mind you, he currently has a baby mama that he's currently with.
Okay.
You know, so he was trying to throw me under the bus saying,
oh, you know, me, myself, like, oh, this guy is a bad guy.
You shouldn't date him, blah, blah, blah. Et cetera, et cetera.
You know, they've had sex once before.
And then she stopped talking to him because she obviously wanted to talk to me.
Right.
But now he currently is always trying to text her.
You know, he Snapchats her saying like, hey, I can't believe you gave this guy a chance.
Blah, blah, blah.
Oh, that's so corny.
Et cetera.
Yeah.
And he still is with his baby mama.
Currently, they live together, you know?
Like, she has no idea he's sexing another girl
that he's trying to be with or that they even had sex.
He's got no idea.
So my question to you is,
should I be petty and speak out to his level
and let her know what's going on,
or should I just let it ride?
Well, the girl that you're dealing with,
she likes you, she's not paying him any
attention. Anyway, you consider this guy your friend?
I mean, yeah, we used to be
friends. No, former friend.
That is the corniest,
most insecure, most hatinest
issue could be doing. Yeah.
And it makes him look so weak.
You know what? You should tell him and she should
tell him, you know how weak you look?
You live with your baby mom and you're in a relationship and you're trying to throw me under the bus for nothing.
You look mad corny.
For nothing. Literally, I've never done nothing wrong for her.
He just got upset that she wanted to talk to me more.
I would definitely confront him now as far as interfering in his relationship with whatever he has going on.
Unless that woman is like a good friend of yours and you feel like I need to let her know.
Other than that, I don't interfere with that
because people get crazy when it comes to things like that, you know?
But I would definitely let him know how wacky he looks,
how corny he is,
and the girl you're dating should tell him as well,
like, yo, you look super wack.
Definitely.
I appreciate it.
I wanted to get you guys some advice on it.
She should block him.
Yeah, she recently just blocked him.
It took forever.
And, you know, I almost stopped talking to her
because it was a problem.
You know, he was always hitting her up.
And she really started to reflect and thought that I was a bad guy.
And then she just came around and realized he was just jealous.
Right.
And that's mad corny.
And guess what?
At least you're giving him a reason to be jealous.
If you ain't got no haters, you ain't popping.
That's true.
I don't know about that, man.
I think you got haters because you are popping.
Hey, that's true.
That's very true.
That's basically what I said.
I know.
That's why it makes no sense.
Why did you just say that?
Huh?
You said what?
Charlamagne, can I ask you a question?
Yo, do you need... I'm going to shoot my shot right now.
Oh boy.
He's flirting.
I can't hear you.
I'm your photographer, he said.
I see your Instagram and I'm always like, I want to meet up with Charlamagne and give
him some good photos and like for free, man, you know, just to connect with you, man.
You're doing great for the community.
I read your book.
It's awesome.
Thank you, sir.
I want to do some photos for you, man.
Next time I meet up with you or I run into you or something like that.
Hey, man, next time I see you, I'll let you take a picture of me.
All right, man.
That was awful.
That was awful.
All right, well, thank you for calling, though.
This guy.
All right.
Ask Yee, 805-85-1051.
If you got a question for you, you can call her at any time.
Now, we got rumors on the way?
Yes, you know I'm a big Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang fan.
And I'm going to tell you what they have going on.
It has to do with Barney's.
Okay.
We'll get into all that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
This is Breakfast Club.
The world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, DJ Envy.
Angela Yee, I forgot what you were talking about in Rumor Report.
Oh, Faith Evans on Drink Champs.
It's about time. What's going on? Rumor about in Rumor Report. Oh, Faith Evans on Drink Champs. 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, we told you earlier that Faith Evans and Stevie J got married Tuesday night in Vegas.
The family's a little upset because nobody was invited, but I guess it was spur of the moment. And according to rumors, they're saying that Stevie J didn't want her to tell family members because he didn't want them to try to change her mind.
I will say if family members can change your mind at the last moment, then you probably really don't want to marry that person anyway.
Well, the last moment was the first moment, so it all happened very quickly.
All right.
Now, Faith Evans was also on Drink Champss previously and she was talking about the Notorious
B.I.G. and one of your favorite
topics, Charlamagne, came up
and here's what Nori asked
Did Big E.S.?
Really?
Yeah, I guess that depends on
who you ask
I don't know
I'm just saying
He ate mine a few times.
I might have ate his back.
Wow.
I'm happy that Nori and Drink Champs are getting that look,
but why is that noose?
Like, I'm trying to figure it out.
I mean, for some reason, this clip went viral,
and everybody was talking about it.
Why?
I don't know.
People just thought it was interesting.
Jesus Christ.
If he was eating it like,
you remember how he ate that bowl of cereal?
Men eat ass.
Listen, men eat ass, women eat ass,
men get their ass ate.
I don't see the big deal.
Well, you know, it's just a fun clip.
Okay.
All right.
Now, Gabrielle Union was on Dr. Oz
and she was discussing how she didn't want to hide the fact
that she was having fertility issues
and how sometimes people will view you in a certain way was discussing how she didn't want to hide the fact that she was having fertility issues and
how sometimes people will view you in a certain way when you don't have children or it's a struggle.
Here's what she said. I initially, I didn't know what, what the issue was. I got off,
I got a birth control. I was, I got married and I was ready to start a family. Um, so I was always
having these early miscarriages, some through from IVF and some just, you know, naturally, you know, happening on our own. How many miscarriages, some from IVF and some just naturally happening on our own.
How many miscarriages did you have?
Literally, that's why I lost track.
It's somewhere like eight or nine.
The first one was the most brutal because we told people and we were so excited.
And those dreams were just crushed.
And then they just happened in sort of rapid succession over the next few years.
Such a difficult thing to discuss.
That's why it's hard to ask a woman, like, how come you don't have any kids?
When are you going to have kids?
Because you don't know what kind of struggles people are going through.
And Chrissy Teigen has discussed this as well.
All right, Melissa Ford.
Shout out to our girl, Melissa Ford.
She had a really terrible accident.
She was driving her Jeep in California.
And that's when she was clipped by an 18-wheeler. That 18-wheeler
did just keep going and she has suffered some very serious injuries
during that hit-and-run accident that just happened a few weeks ago. But now she is
finally walking with the assistance of a walker and she's going to have to undergo
full therapy to recover. So our girl Claudia Jordan
had actually also set up a GoFundMe
to help get that together.
So far, they've raised over $20,000.
So Melissa Ford is saying
that more people need to go ahead
and share that link.
So we should do that today as well
and contribute to help her out
during this time.
Absolutely.
You know, a lot of us are friends
with Melissa Ford.
We've come into contact with her
and it's a really tough thing
for her to have to go through.
She has staples in her elbows and other
severe cuts and bruises on her entire
body. Salute to the homie Machine Gun Melly,
man. Drop one of the clues, boss, for Machine Gun Melly.
Definitely praying for her. We used to actually
work at Sirius together and hang out
all the time, so I gotta make sure we look out for our
girl and spread the word.
Alright, the RZA. He has unveiled
a new woo wear collection. That collection
will be sold at places like Barney's, Urban Outfitters,
Zoomies, and also online at woowear.com.
Pretty cute.
I'm already looking at some sweatpants that I want to get,
so if you want to do that.
If you think I give a damn about woo wear in 2018,
then you are absolutely right.
You know I'm about to order me some pieces.
They're also going to have their very first dedicated WuWear women's line.
So that's going to be dope.
So I'm excited for that.
I bought WuWear from Target.
I bought it from...
I was in some store in L.A. and they had a bunch of Wu-Tang t-shirts and I bought a few.
Well, now you can get official WuWear.
I'm there.
How much is it?
Shout out to my girl Cinnamon, man, from WuWear.
Listen, we worked together at WuWear back in the day, day when they had WuWear stores in Staten Island.
Is it affordable?
I haven't been in a bar in Staten Island. Is it affordable?
I haven't been in a Barney's in a long time.
Ranging from $16 to $250.
$16 to $250.
Okay.
You can, hey.
Let's start to my price point, $16. You're good to go.
All right.
All right, here's something else you can afford.
Lay's Potato Chips.
They are introducing eight new flavors,
and that's all going to be inspired by local cuisines
from across the country.
So it's their Taste of America flavors.
They have a Cajun spice, chili con queso, Chesapeake crab-based spice, deep dish pizza,
fried pickles with ranch, New England lobster roll, pimento cheese, and sweet Thai chili.
Not interested.
So that's all going to start at the end of the month.
Not interested in those artificial flavored potato chips.
That's a death in a bag.
It's death.
Not interested.
All right.
Just letting you know it's out there.
And now let's discuss the mayor of Philly.
We just told you about the Made in America Festival and the mayor dropping the bombshell that it's the last year the festival will be held on the Ben Franklin Parkway.
Well, it looks like there's been some miscommunication.
Here is what the mayor had to say about these statements. First of all, I love Jay-Z. We love the concert and we want to keep it.
We had, there's some operational difficulties on the Parkway because of how long it takes to kind
of set up and take down. We were in conversations with the people we thought were communicating
that to Roc Nation and to Jay-Z. Apparently they weren't. The issue of being the last year on the parkway
was in the RFP that was responded to,
and since they responded to the RFP and had no complaints,
we thought that it was okay to look around
for some other prominent sites in the city where we could do it.
We are in discussions with the right people now,
and I'm confident we will work everything out.
So are they going to do it in Philly or are they not doing it in Philly?
Well, I guess this year they are doing it. Okay.
It's happening, so we're talking about in the future
after this year. Take it to Detroit, man.
But I guess what he's saying is they want to put
it someplace else and not in that specific location.
Oh, so keep it in Philly, just in a
different location. Right, and I don't know if Jay-Z's with that,
so we'll see what happens, but in addition to that,
Budweiser has decided to walk
away from Made in America as well. Why?
And they're the main sponsor. They don't see enough rappers holding Budweiser cans decided to walk away from Made in America as well. Why? And they're the main sponsor.
They don't see enough rappers holding Budweiser cans at the festival?
According to the VP, they said,
we're realizing that music is being consumed in many different ways today,
and we want to keep up with trends and how consumers are behaving today.
That includes investing more in country music.
Yes, because there ain't no rappers drinking Budweiser except for Post Malone.
That's exactly their point.
They said country music events spend more on beer than other genres of music.
So that's why they want to invest their money there.
So what are you Cognac-tivocs
going to do? Y'all going to step up and sponsor Made in America?
Well, if it's a Cognac, it's got to be
D'Ussé. I can't imagine him having another Cognac.
Damn, damn. Remy and Henny can't even get into that.
Yeah, sorry guys. It would have to be D'Ussé
and, you know, it would have to be C'Rock,
right? Somebody. It has to be.
Somebody that, alcohol that rappers and hip-hop actually partakes in more so than Budweiser.
And it don't even have to be an alcohol.
It could be something else.
Heineken.
It could be another brand.
Rappers drink Heineken.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report.
Yes.
There's nothing on that screen.
Or maybe Nutcrackers.
Yes.
Nutcrackers.
Nutcrackers ain't got no official brand.
Salute to Revolt.
We'll see y'all tomorrow, man.
And coming up next is the People's Choice Mix, which is actually not a People's Choice Mix.
Yes, it is.
It is not no People's Choice Mix.
Envy do not ask nobody for no request.
Envy plays what the hell he wants to play when he wants to play it.
Okay?
Knock it off.
Envy ain't took a request in seven years.
What's the first song in the mix?
I have no idea.
Because I'm going to request it right now.
What is it?
I don't know.
Tell me what it is, John.
Oh, you don't know?
Okay, everybody don't know all this stuff.
All right.
All right, you guys, tweet DJ Envy right now.
Put in your request.
It's the People's Choice Mix.
This is your choice, your music that you picked.
Waste your time, people.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's the Breakfast Club. Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
I own this.
It's surprisingly easy.
55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete.
Or maybe not.
No country willingly gives up their territory.
Oh my God.
What is that?
Bullets.
