But I have to ease Back into eating Cause I don't want To shock my system Okay Well listen Speaking of meat right Yesterday I took the money

That Safari threw in here Wow Cause remember When he was collecting All the money Yeah yeah yeah He was collecting All the money

When he was throwing His ones in here when he was debuting his single, 100. Okay. So, I'm sitting here. I got this big old stack of ones. You saw all the ones I had, right? That's right. Took it to the bank. Can you count this up for me? You took it to the bank? Yes, I took it to the bank. So, what was it about? Let me guess.

Yes. $400. $211. I don't know how you strippers do it, okay? $211. That's it. I spent all of this time picking up those ones, putting them together. Had this big old stack of ones. It was $211. It was only $211? $211.

But it did come in handy because one of my peoples from Monk's Corner. He went to the bank. He beat me yesterday to send them some money. So, you know, I added $300 more to that and sent that to Western Union. Got that money control transfer number. So, Safari saved me $200 yesterday. Well, it looks good, him throwing all that money in here. It looked like he made it thunderstorm.

I don't know what the total amount was that he threw in here. I'm just telling you that I collected $211. I think he threw around $1,000. No, he didn't. How much did you have then? I had about $270. How did you have more than Charlamagne? I only had $211.

How did he have more than you?agne? Only had $211. How much did you have? No, I'm saying, how did he have more than you? Because it seemed like you were working more on collecting the money. Envy was DJing. Oh, yeah,

Envy was being sneaky and, you know. I saw him do the sweep with his foot. I did the sweep with the foot. Envy was flirting with him, so he probably threw

Envy a couple dollars on the side. And we did give his dancer, Adiela. And we gave the dancer some money. Some of that money as well. Well, me and you did.

Me and you picked up about, I guess about $300, $400 gave us some money. So y'all would pay, that was not no $300, $400 gave the dancers some money. Some of that money as well. Well, me and you did. Me and you picked up about, I guess, about $300, $400 gave us some money. So y'all would pay. That was not no $300, $400. Yeah, it definitely wasn't that much. It was not that much. It probably was like $150. I gave her two stacks.

I gave her a stack the one she left the first time, and then we gave her a stack the second time. Well, congratulations to that young lady. She had a great morning yesterday. And congratulations to Safaree. His song hit, what, number 30-something on iTunes. Yes, he was, and he was so happy and excited about that. I saw it right below Kendrick Lamar's Scissor All the Stars. Well, I'm going to tell you something.

That didn't last long. Because I went to go look at the Hot 100 yesterday. I didn't see him on there at all. He was gone. So he had it. It lasted long enough for him to screenshot it and put it on Instagram. Hooray! Good enough.

Shout out to Safari, man. All right. Well, today, this morning, Sinbad will be joining us. Yes, because it's Throwback Thursday. You know we love talking to the OG Sinbad. That's right. They hold nothing back. Yes.

And he has some great insight into what's going on in this world. Right. So we'll kick it with Sinbad in a little bit. And we got front page news. What are we talking about? We are going to be talking about the NRA and Donald Trump. Donald Trump had a meeting on gun legislation. And the NRA is not too happy about it.

All right. We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's a Thursday. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Bob'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's a Thursday. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get in some front page news. Let's talk about your president, Donald Trump.

Yes, Donald Trump. He had a televised meeting yesterday with lawmakers on gun control. And the NRA is not too pleased with him. You know, he sat down, had lunch with them previously. He's friends with, quote, the NRA. But here is what he had to say as far as even disagreeing with Jeff Sessions on gun control. The focus is to literally give families and give local law enforcement additional tools if an individual is reported to be a potential danger to themselves or others. Allow due process so that no one's rights are trampled,

but the ability to go to court, obtain an order, and then collect not only the firearms, but any weapons in the possession of that individual. Or might take the firearms first and then go to court. To go to court would have taken a long time. So you could do exactly what you're saying, but take the guns first, go through due process second. Listen, man, all of that sounds good,

but it sounds to me like posturing to me. That was just a show. I think Donald Trump is scared of the NRA, too. Well, Donald Trump says that he also believes that there should be an age limit for buying guns. He's agreeing with a lot of what the Democrats are saying about gun control, and the Republicans were shocked at his basically publicly— It's a show. What he had to say.

Here's what it was. You can't buy a handgun at 18, 19, or 20. You have to wait until you're 21. But you can buy the gun, the weapon used in this horrible shooting at 18. You are going to decide. The people in this room pretty much are going to decide. But I would give very serious thought to it. I can say that the NRA is opposed to it, and I'm a fan of the NRA.

But that doesn't mean we have to agree on anything. It's a show for the American people, man. Okay, don't fall for that. Well, it looks like, I love what Walmart and Dixon did, what they did. Well, yes, Walmart and Dixon have raised the minimum age for gun buyers to 21. Can they do that? Oh, that's why Dixon

was trending yesterday. Yeah, yeah. That's their story. They can decide. So you can do that. Yeah, you definitely can do that. They said regardless of whatever the local law is, they can do that in their store. So now you have to be 21. And actually, Walmart, which is the biggest gun seller, announced they would not sell any gun to anyone under 21. And they would no longer sell items that resemble assault-style rifles, including toys and air guns. I didn't think they sold them toys anywhere, unless it had an orange tip on it for us.

All right. And Dick said they would immediately end sales of all assault-style rifles in stores as well. And you have to be 21 regardless of whatever the local law is. All right. Now, Donald Trump also said he's not afraid of the NRA. Yeah, right. It doesn't make sense that I have to wait until I'm 21 to get a handgun, but I can get this weapon at 18. I don't know.

So I was just curious as to what you did in your bill. You don't address it? We didn't address it in this present. I think we— Why is he afraid of the NRA? He's putting on a show for the American people under the guise that he's not afraid of the NRA, just telling us what we want to hear. Everybody shook at the NRA.

You know why? Because they got all the guns. Well, the NRA spokesperson responded and said, while today's meeting made for great TV, the gun control proposals discussed would make for a bad policy that would not keep our children safe. Instead of punishing law-abiding gun owners for the acts of a deranged prohibited from possessing firearms are in the national instant criminal background check system, securing our schools and preventing the dangerously mentally ill from accessing firearms. That's why I told you I don't fall for it. That's all Trump was focused on yesterday was good TV.

He executive produced that whole situation. You think somebody that had to sit there with notes in their hand when it came to talking to the grieving families at Parkland High School, you think that all of a sudden he's got to change his heart when it comes to gun legislation in America?

Stop it. They had to give him notes just to talk to the family. Okay? All right. Last front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

If you're upset, you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning, or maybe you want to spread some positivity. Phone lines are wide open. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So you better have the same energy. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Tony from Hampton.

Hey, Tony. Get it off your chest. Oh, yeah, I just want to say I'm blessed that we have James Harden. I don't know if you guys saw what he did to Wesley Dunson last night, but it was the most disrespectful thing I've ever seen. The only thing that could have made it more disrespectful was if he stepped over him like A.I. did. You woke up this morning thinking about James Harden

and how thankful you are to have James Harden in Houston. That is gratitude, sir. That's basically what I did. Because I didn't see the game last night, but I saw him turning on Twitter. Well, I'm about to go look at it now, and I got a question for you. You got to look at it.

Yeah, everybody's going to look at it. That crossover was crazy. If he stepped over him like A.I. did, it would have been crazy. He could have stared him down. Would you let James Harden look at it. Yeah, everybody's going to look at it. That crossover was crazy. If he stepped over here and my AI did, it would have been crazy. Would you let James Harden have sex with your woman, though? What? Hello?

Nah, I wouldn't do that. Wow, you had to think about it? Wow. Come on, man. Wow. Hello, who's this? What's up, Envy? Hey, Trev.

What up, Trev? Hey, Trev. Hey. Hi, Trev. How you doing, babe? What's up, Charlene? What up, Trev? Hey, Trev. Hey. Hi, Trev. How you doing, babe? What's up, Charlene? What up, Safari Meat lover? Get it off your chest, Trev.

Who said I like Safari Meat? Oh, you love Safari Meat. Don't you lie. It was big. It wasn't pretty, but it was big. I don't want to talk about that. Why are you even bringing that up? I'm sorry to talk to a gay man about penises in the morning.

What's pretty to you then? Oh, gosh. You said it wasn't pretty. I wish I was in New York. I can show you pretty in my phone. All right, Trev. Jesus Christ, Trev. Send it through, Trev.

Get it off your chest, Trev. I'm mad because I wanted to call the other day before Black History Month ended because I wanted to give a Black History fact. Okay, let's hear it. All right. I don't want us to be distracted from the fact that one of our queens bodied Nicki Minaj and it's not over yet.

Say her name. Don't let anything distract you from the fact that Remy Ma bodied Nicki Minaj last year with Ethan. But I did hear that Nicki has turned her album in, though. I don't know what that means. Oh, really? Yeah, she turned her album in. That. I don't know what that means. Oh, really? Yeah, she turned her album in. Oh, it's about time.

I'm actually excited to hear it. I think we all are. I think we all are. I think that, you know, we all want, I think it's room for everybody. So we all want to see Nikki prosper, right? Yes, I want to hear some bangers from Nikki Minaj. I'm sure she got some. But y'all have a good day.

Except the barbs. I hope they have a miserable day. Damn, Trev. Goodbye, Trev, a good day. Except the barbs. I hope they have a miserable day. Damn, Trav. Goodbye, Trav with the shade. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Hit us up now.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this?

Yo, what's going on? MV is Lorenzo. Lorenzo. What's up? Get it off your chest, bro. What's going on, Charlamagne? What's up, Yeet? Peace, my brother.

Peace, peace. I'm going to take a second to focus on detectives' racial profiling. Yesterday, I got off of work work and I was on my way home and I got pulled over by an unmarked car. They got out the car and they told me that I was speeding when I was going maybe about 20 miles an hour. They told me that they smelled weed in my car and I let them know that I was just getting off of work

and they made me get out of my car and search my car and I let them know that I was just getting off of work and they made me get out my car and searched my car because they said that it smelled like weed even though I don't smoke weed. So I just want to let all these detectives and all these cops know that just because we black and just because we live in a neighborhood that's maybe not, you know, the most safest neighborhood doesn't mean that we're riding around with drugs and guns. Some of us really working hard to provide for our family out here. Yeah, and working hard to get out of that neighborhood. Exactly, man.

But they don't really see it like that. They just see another black man, you know, and they pull us over because they think that we maybe have drugs and guns in the car. But like I said, I was getting off of work. I'm sorry to hear that something like that had to happen to you. And I'm sorry to everybody that that happens to. It's really unfortunate. And I think it can really affect you mentally, clearly.

And you got to tell the cops that profile, people like that, this sucks so far as ****. Oh, my goodness. Yo, Charlamagne, man. What's so funny is, you know, it was one black cop and it was one white cop. And it was like the black cop was going harder than the white cop was. You know what I'm saying?

And I'm looking at him like, hey, you're supposed to have joined the force to, you know, make a difference in the neighborhood that you maybe grew up in. I experienced this thing. You know what I'm saying? Did they give you a ticket? No, they never gave me a ticket. But they definitely searched my car. And they patted me down when they pulled me out the car. So, I mean, I would have rather the ticket than that.

You know what I'm saying? You allowed them to search your car when they asked you said yes? No, they never even asked me. They said that they could search the car because they smell weed, so they have probable cause. That's a lie. Yeah, that's crazy. All right, man.

Sorry you went through that, man. Thank you, man. Y'all have a good day. You safe out lie. Yeah, that's crazy. Sorry you went through that, man. Thank you, man. Y'all have a good day. You safe out there. Hello? Hello. You from this corner? Oh, yeah. What's up, man? I was calling to say wow, man, but I'm a little blessed and all because I finally got in contact with y'all. What's up? You related to Charlemagne?

Yeah, that's my cousin, man. We from 803, you know. Who is you? I'm from Denmark, South Carolina, though. My name's Peanut. Who is you, though? What's your name? Peanut. Peanut.

I don't know you. You don't know Peanut. You know Peanut, my man. How do I know Peanut? Because we can. We from South Carolina, man. I don't mean we can't just because we from South Carolina. Chadwick Boulder from South Carolina.

Name I can. I bet my granddaddy hit your grandma. Whoa. Whoa. Jesus Christ, lady. But damn. He just went left. Ain't no C. I'm just like, why would you say something like that?

Because we can, man. Listen, I've been trying to get in contact with you to give you a shirt. What does the shirt say? Why don't you give it to his aunt or something? Or to your mom who can give it to his mom? I don't even know nobody in Denmark, Salking Line. Because I need to give it to Charlebert.

He the one got swag with his Timbs all the time. Yes, ma'am. All right, Peanut. You have a blessed day, okay? You guys might be related for real. I gotta tell you how to get it. How do I get it?

How do I get it, Peanut? You gotta go to imstillproud.com. Ooh, I like your style. You had to plug your little site. I like that. I like that. You gotta go there.

I thought you was gonna give it to him. Yeah, that's how he go get it. You had to plug your little site. I like that. I like that. You got to go there. I thought you was going to give it to him. Yeah, that's how he go get it. He got to go pick what he wants. You should go by his mom or daddy house since y'all come. She don't even know who my mom and daddy is. I will tell you this, though. I am so proud that you're not really my cousin. Have a blessed day, okay?

All right? Okay. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. We got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to talk about Diddy. He has some advice for all of the new artists out there right now.

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. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Hey. Let's get to these rumors. Let's talk Big Sean. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report.

Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. So Big Sean is gearing up to release a movie theater. He's going to open up his own movie theater, Imagine Entertainment, by 2020. Now, the movie theater is going to have

at least a dozen screens, and one room will be used as an intimate concert venue for live music and seminars. This is all going to be in Detroit downtown. We're dropping the clues, Bum, for that rapping-ass boy, Big Sean. Now, Big Sean explained, we want to do something revolutionary with it. We don't want to

just make it a movie theater, traditionally. We also want it to be a hub for entertainment for the whole community. We want people to have an incentive to go the extra mile to travel into Detroit. He's doing the right things with his money, man. He's reinvesting it into his community. That's what she's supposed to do. Right, and speaking of Imagine Entertainment,

he also showed up and surprised hundreds of students from Detroit public schools. They were on a field trip to go see Black Panther. He was at Imagine Theaters in Royal Oak and surprised them while they were in the movie theater. There you go. And you're just going to let Safari come out here and drop those nudes? You're not going to respond, Big Sean?

Oh, you want Big Sean to drop some nudes now? I'm just saying. Is that what you want to say? He was the bar that all the women was talking about before. Now they're talking about Safari. You're just going to let him do whatever? Hold on. Big Sean named himself Big Sean. And he said that's the reason why, because he's big.

Oh, y'all never saw it. Yeah, I don't think we've ever seen it. Oh, okay, okay, okay. All right, now let's talk, since you brought up Safari, let's talk about Safari. Congratulations to him. For what?

Since you brought it up. His song, Hunt It, was charting on iTunes. Nice, congrats to Safari. As a matter of fact, let's just get into this whole post that he put up.

What's great is that he's very enthusiastic and excited. He is. You can't help but like the guy. About everything here is Safari being excited

about Honey. Oh, my God! Honey is charting on iTunes! Oh, my God! Honey is charting on iTunes! He got a little mad. Where was it charting, though?

Because that's very important. It don't matter. He posted it. It was the top 200. Where was he at on the top 200? He was at, like, number 38. Hold on. I'm looking right here.

I think it went down to 35 or 36. He was number 36. He was right after all the stars. When he first got here yesterday, it was, like, 150. Right. So it went up to, like, 36. Well, good for you, Safar. So congratulations to him. Shout out to Safar, it was like 150. Right. So it went up to like 36. Well, good for you, Safaree. So congratulations to him.

Shout out to Safaree, man. All right, so make sure y'all go out and keep it going because we want another excited post from Safaree. Listen, I told you I think he's going to get a hit this year. I don't know if this is going to be the record, but I do think he's going to get a hit this year. All right, now Netflix has created, well, they're going to create 700 original shows and movies

by the end of 2018. That is the plan. They're going to spend $8 billion to bring those projects to the small screen. I'm going to get me some of that money. I'm telling y'all that right now. I imagine so. You know me. Sorry, Monique. I'm going to get you some of that money.

700 original shows. That's a lot of opportunity for people. That's a lot of money, boy. Alright, now Diddy was on Instagram and he was talking about all of the rappers, R&B artists, all the singers out right now, and he wants people to just be more original. Here's what Diddy had to say. So many people rapping right now.

It is literally like too much, you know? I'm not knocking nobody's dream. I just don't want the culture to get diluted, you know, where it gets so mass produced. It doesn't mean anything. Artists have to be special. I just don't want the culture to get diluted, you know, where it gets so mass produced. It doesn't mean anything. Artists have to be special. Every artist has to be unique in their own right.

There's a lot of special artists out there, though. I don't know what everybody else be listening to because my playlist be late. Because you got the Kendricks and TDEs with that Black Panther soundtrack, Nipsey Hussle's Victory Lap. I'm still bumping Rhapsody. I love Drake's new records. I like that Drake in Trouble. I love while they've been dropping. I listen to a lot of female rappers now.

Rhapsody, Tokyo Jet, Snow the Product, Tankback dropping music. Skyzoo just dropped a great project. That dude Kaz has dropped a great album. Joey Badass, Vince Staples, Vic Minster, Chance the Rapper, Big Sean, 2 Chainz EP. So I don't know, man. I think it's a lot of special music.

Well, earlier this morning, Diddy also posted Staying Power, the ability to maintain an activity or commitment despite fatigue or difficulty stamina. Do you have the staying power? I just think that we have to stop acting like one or two artists that you may not like or ruin in the whole game. There's plenty of dope-ass, specialized music artists. Well, he didn't say anybody was ruining the game. He was just telling artists to just make sure you continue to be creative and be original. And sometimes, a lot of times, I think people, when something comes out that's a hit,

they might try to emulate that sound. And that does happen. Yeah, but they don't go nowhere, though. Like, that never goes anywhere. Those songs go somewhere, but not the actual artist. Yeah, or the song might be around for a few months and then boom, it's out the way. Right, so he's trying to encourage artists

to just continue to be creative, be original, be special, be unique. That's a good message. Just don't focus on the farts. Like, you hear the fart right now. See? You hear it, right? Listen. Listen. It's loud. It's gonna stink for a while. But just for a brief second, and then it's gone.

Don't worry about the farts. Alright, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. That's how you look at it? That's how I look at it. It farts. Alright. Don't worry about the farts. You gotta pull down your pants and let them out sometimes. Y'all know I don't fart in my clothes. I'm a grown-ass man. Who farts in their clothes?

Y'all fart in your clothes? Yes. When I got a fart, I just fart. I don't sit there and be like, let me go to the corner and pull down my pants and let it go. Listen, y'all ain't washed y'all jeans in months, but you fart in your clothes. Think about that. What you think about that? Think about the last time you washed your jeans.

I wash my jeans every time I'm in a room. I'm talking the guys. Guys don't wash their jeans every time. Exactly. Guys don't wash their jeans. When's the last time you washed your jeans, my brother my jeans every time I'm in here. I'm talking the guys. Guys don't wash their jeans every time. When's the last time you washed your jeans, my brother? Be honest with yourself. I wash my jeans about once every three weeks. But you fart every day. That's why you shouldn't fart in your

clothes. Ain't nothing wrong with no fart. Alright, now when we come back, Sinbad will be joining us. OG Sinbad. Love talking to him. He farts in his clothes? I'm sure he does. He old school.

She was correct. When she said what they offered was an insult. You know, people said, well, $500,000, they're allowed to sneeze at. Yeah, but if your partners and everybody else is getting $10 million, $20 million, that is, you do have to fight for your thing. Well, she was right. Amy Schumer, they offered her $10 million. Amy said, well, I know Chris, I'm getting $20 million.

So they gave her $13 million. I mean, Monique did have more cred than Amy Schumer. And they try to run the game. It's not about your movies and stuff. But then they used that as an excuse. She was good with it until that video where she said, I humbly say I'm the most decorated comedian alive. I said, nah, what you just did, everything you

were saying, everything you were saying was correct. That moment was when I said, yeah, I came back that one. When we say decorated or talented, I don't know, Whoopi's alive. I mean, that's a hard mantle to take. And I think it put people off.

She was right in what she was saying, because it's called Time's Up. Women fighting for money, right? Well, it was about white women, black women. That's why I was standing with her. Right. We had a white female comic, but what happens to our black female comics? Why can't they make the money?

But don't you think it's a what are you doing for me right now type of industry? Because you look at Amy in 20, and I don't think Amy's funny at all. Yeah. But in 2016, she did sell out of 50 cities around the world. But if Monique went on the road,

remember Monique was the hottest. Kayla Prince-Wade. She was at one time. She was more than 500,000. Yeah, listen, I don't think there's any question about that. Even before she came up here, we discussed it. And Charlamagne asked me, what would you give Monique? And definitely 500,000, an extremely low number.

Three to five. She's got five. There's no negotiation. Yeah, they give that money away. They give that money away like candy to some unfunny people. They give that money away like candy to some funny people. But you know it's not about funny, though. It's about who you can draw. Let's talk about you, Sinbad.

What about you as a comedian, if you were going to go to Netflix? What do you think would be... Well, you know, I'm like this. If you're giving them 20, I want 20. I'm serious. I'm sorry. Because I still draw. I can sell out and if you want to, let's have a comedy shootout. I'll get on stage with anybody you got. But you can't

use the routine you used yesterday. How about this game? Matter of fact, we're going to get tomorrow? Let's do another new hour. See, now it's about game who got skills. I'll go with you on the skill set and I'll take your audience. You can come to my show. I'll go to your show. I don't fear any of that. See, that's when we've been in the game this long, I don't

care who shows up. And I ain't trying to be or I hope you think I'm funny. Yeah, but you got an audience, though. It's easy to say that when you really a draw. Yeah, but no. Oh, when you got time and game. Think about it. If you're an artist, if you can play the horn, if you can play music and somebody said, well, this guy's hot. Yeah? He gonna get

on stage with me? Even guys who are hot? No, I ain't gonna get on stage with that dude. That dude, he might be older now, but I'm not gonna get on stage with him and look stupid because he can really play. So if they did offer you a Netflix special,

you'd be like, I want $20 million. At least $15 million. They'd give me $5 million on the back end. When I show you how well it does, you gotta give me incentive.

I built some incentive in. I get this many people to look at it and give me the extra. Would you do a special? Do you want to do a special? Yeah, they won't call me. They won't call you?

Netflix, no. I'll try to get them. They have a, I said, we have an analytic structure. I said, what are you talking about? We have analytics to decide

who should be on stage. I said, what's your analytic? Funny ain't funny? I said, people come to the show. I said, y'all don't even know me.

I tell them, when's the last time you seen me? They said, you're right. I said, you're right. So if I came on a TV show, if I did a TV show's the last time you seen me? He said, you're right. I said, you're right. So if I came on a TV show,

if I did a TV show right now, now you're back in the game. So I told my agent, I said, I'm going to write my own stuff.

We'll put some shows together and then when they come in, I want 21 million. I don't believe because you know, guys like Russell Peters

ain't on TV and he got money from Netflix. But Russell, Russell's deceptive. Russell is one of the richest unknown comics. Hell yeah. Russell is one of the richest unknown comics.

Hell yeah. Russell Peters can perform anywhere and he's a DJ for... For Nile Rodgers. For Nile Rodgers. He DJs. That's right, because Nile always goes to Nile.

Man, my boy, that's Russell Busman. That's my boy. I wanted to ask somebody on Netflix, I wonder how much they gave Russell because I forgot Russell had a stand-up a couple years ago.

That boy does theaters, arenas. No, around the world. Around the world. His audience is worldwide. He's the richest unknown comic. Yep, that's a fact. He makes stupid bank. And he ain't on TV or nothing.

I ain't mad at that brother at all, man. I wonder how much Netflix gave him. Had to give him at least 15. Had to give him at least 15. Yeah. Had to. Well, by the way, it's people that would see that and be like, how he get more than Monique?

You're not realizing what he's doing on that road. You don't know what that boy's doing, and you don't know what his boy's doing and you don't know what his audience is and his draw is international. Yeah. He's beyond, he's international, man.

Now let's talk about, we have Faison up here and Faison made a comment about Dave Chappelle. He said, Dave Chappelle is the wackest and unfunniest comedian out here. What are your thoughts

on Dave Chappelle? That's let me go like, man, Grover Washington, he can't play that saxophone. No, it is, man. I think, do you know what, man? Grover Washington, he can't play that saxophone. No, it is, man. I think, do you know what, man? I think when we get to such a level, you get hate because you're just at a level. And if you don't get that hate, you're not at that level.

So, no, whackers, no. I've been, Chappelle opened for me when he was 18 years old. I was in D.C. and somebody said, young cat, I'm going to open for you, man. And then I asked if his mother could go on the road with me. I said, dude, you're a different kind of brother. Did his mother let you go?

Yeah, he let me go. So I look at Chappelle. This is what's happened, though, man. Now they've almost made Chappelle the comedy god. And I said, no,

Chappelle's funny. The gods are the ones that came before us. I look at Pryor, Cosby, Carlin, Lenny Bruce, because they did it in the most difficult time, the hardest time, most racist time, most sexist time.

They didn't want Cousin back then. But Chappelle right now is the closest. Chappelle can get on the phone and say, I want to do that theater over there. I want to do it tonight. It'll sell out. That means something. And he always has something to say, you know?

And he's always funny. Whack, maybe if if he said something else whack no I'm funny no he said he don't make laugh which is funny because I'm a

and I laugh I laugh too man but then I guess my great grandfather so maybe because I got that white blood my great grandfather maybe that's what

makes me make you laugh what do you think of comedians calling out other comedians period do you think that there should be some respect

angry you know what it is man sometimes comments who are not as funny as you are the one in Hollywood pics. And you go like, damn, what?

You out here killing it and they grab this cat. If I can't get mad because it had been me, would I have been mad? If it had been me, would I be mad? So all I can do is like this.

I got to just keep moving. You almost got to put blinders on like horses when they race. You know they put blinders on so they can't see the other horses. If I see the other horses, it throws me off. So I just keep moving. You almost got to put blinders on like horses when they race. You know, they put blinders on so they can't see the other horses. If I see the horses, it throws me off.

So I just keep running. Do I get mad sometimes? Yeah, I get mad. But I won't speak on a cat because he's doing something with it. He's making money and he's taking care of his family. I'm like this. How can I get mad? He's got the dream I want.

So all I got to do is keep pushing for the dream. And sometimes you don't get the dream. Sometimes great people get passed over. And sometimes you don't get the dream. Sometimes great people get passed over. And that's the hardest part. Alright, we have more with Sinbad when we come back. Don't move. 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. We have comedian Sinbad in the building. Charlamagne? I saw you getting that Justin Timberlake on Twitter. You said, okay, punk ass Justin Timberlake. Yo. You was cool until you pulled that Prince bull.

What made you go off like that? See, they were going to do a Prince tribute. Yes. But how you do that, how can you do the respect after what you said about Prince? They said, well, Prince dogged him first. Prince said, no. Sexy, you didn't bring Sexy back. Sexy was always here.

That's not dogging him. That's dogging saying, Sexy was talking about R&B. I'm bringing Sexy back. You don't get them. You ain't bring Sexy back. Sexy was always here. That's not dogging him. That's dogging saying Sexy was talking about R&B. I'm bringing Sexy back. You don't get them. You ain't the one. It ain't leave. They got rid of us. Remember, they didn't want us to do R&B anymore.

I'm not mad because you like R&B. Remember he kept saying, I want to win an R&B award. I want to be R&B. Then he went Man in the Woods. Really? So you get to shift and play all over where my R&B artists, they don't die. They can't even go on tour and have a tour. You dog Prince and say, I looked for you on the charts,

but you weren't there. I said, you threw that verse at him? The brother never left the charts. He's still the man. And then when he didn't show up at Prince to get to an award show, he said, I accepted for Prince, and he bent down at the mic like he was little. I said, if you can't do that with Prince there,

they said, well, they were friends. If you can't do that joke with Prince there, they said, well, they were friends. If you can't do that joke with Prince there, I don't want to see that joke. Now, if I've been in the audience, I might have jumped up, man. I might have jumped up and grabbed him, man,

because you don't get to be that dude. Not you. Not you, the fake braids in your hair. No, no, no. So now they got the Prince tribute,

and afterwards, he's going to guess he's with Jimmy L. Fallon. You know, man, I just feel like I'm the gatekeeper. Well, now you're the gatekeeper to Prince. No, he's going to guess. He's with Jimmy L. Fallon. You know, man, I just feel like I'm the gatekeeper. Well, now you're the gatekeeper to Prince. No, dude, you're not.

He said that? Yeah. I want to keep that legacy alive. And Prince was the greatest. Should have said that while I was here. Should have said that while I was here. I mean, I got people. I got more people hating on me.

I said, dude, I don't care about you. You think I said this for you? You don't like me coming to my show. Meet me before the show. Give me 15 minutes. We can get this taken care you? You don't like me coming to my show. Meet me before the show. Give me 15 minutes. We can get this taken care of. You can't be fighting no more, man. No, they're not going to show up.

Dude, the keyboard gangsters, they don't show up. He only had a real picture. He got a picture of a frog. He's froggy 167. They ain't coming to the show. That's funny because, I mean, you probably knew Prince. You knew Michael Jackson. That's my dude, Prince. Prince was probably knew Prince. You knew Michael Jackson. That's my dude, Prince.

Prince was the baddest cat. Baddest cat. Talented. Man, you know what? Let me put it this way. When you're around Prince, you feel like you're in this, you really watch yourself.

You know, we're all hanging, but Prince come in, all y'all be like this. Let me be on my best behavior. Yeah, you be on your best behavior. We met him one morning. One morning,

random as hell. It was like six in the morning and somebody said, Prince in the building. I said, Prince in the building. They brought him back. So One morning, random as hell. It was like six in the morning and somebody said, Prince in the building. I said, Prince in the building. They brought him by. So we all stopped. What are we doing?

When they brought him by, he was walking out the hall. No, they said we're going to walk him past here to say hello. And he was walking with two old white women. And it's just like, when you saw him,

he's like, how you doing, miss? I couldn't think of nothing to say other than I do. You don't know what to say to him. This is what this dumbass said. Hi, Prince, how you doing? Prince says hi. He goes, I'm the Jehovah Witness too.

I grew up Jehovah Witness too. No. I couldn't think of nothing. It came out then. But I was the Jehovah Witness though. It just came out, didn't it? Stuff like that. Come goes, I'm Jehovah's Witness too. I grew up Jehovah's Witness too. No. I couldn't think of that. It came out then. But I was Jehovah's Witness though. It just came out, didn't it? Stuff like that. Come on, confessionals.

It just came out. Yeah. Come on. And then he took a picture of Prince. This is a fact. Prince turned. We asked Prince to take a picture. He said, no,

I don't want to take a picture. But then when he walked away, he looked like he was really floating. So I took a picture of his back in my phone. You know when you take a picture in your phone? It was there.

I showed everybody. Then it went black. What? in your phone? It was there. I showed everybody. Then it went black. What? It went black. It was a black square in the phone. I believe it, dude, because Prince, all right, we're at this house. He's throwing his cunts at his house. Me and my daughter are sitting talking.

The hallway where the steps come from where he lives up top was maybe at least 50 feet, 100 feet away. I turned around. He was right here. I said, man, you got to quit materializing. You got to quit materializing next to people. He was a different. God don't make many like that.

No, at all. I agree. Think about it. Prince is gone. There's no young Prince. Right. At all. When Stevie Wonder goes, there's no young Stevie Wonder.

I said, we're losing people that are not getting replaced. What's the next move of greatness? Or is there a move of greatness? Now it's temporary, temporary, temporary, temporary. Somebody, he's hot for this. He's hot for this single. And everybody giving him love. I said, I see him on TV.

I said, he don't realize he'll be here two weeks. He's talking all that trash. He's going to be here two weeks he talking all that trash he gonna be here two weeks and you think about somebody like Prince who was writing and producing songs for other people

under different names hiding their names and he played all those instruments and the way he used to dance and the Purple Rain is one of the most classic movies

of all time he didn't want to do this that's the only thing he wanted to do the Purple Rain song it just happened man it just he makes accidental hits

and when he he had that deep voice you know he's single we ain't talking we ain't talking like this the only thing he wouldn't do to the Purple Rain song. It just happened, man. It just, he makes accidental hits. And when he, he had that deep voice. You know, he'd sing up high. We ain't talking, we ain't talking like this to you. And he's sitting there listening to every word that he has to say.

But he's funny. Prince was funny. Did you ever play basketball with him? He was a baller, man. Really? Cross me up. You was like five feet tall.

He asked, Morris Day To the interview He goes We didn't know he did music We knew him from basketball Really Yeah Minnesota Eagles

Dude The dude that played basketball He does music also They didn't know he did music He was a basketball player You seen them pictures right All the brothers with the big froze All the high yellow brothers

On the studio And they all look like him They all look In Minnesota Like all the brothers ran To get white women And they all look Half green

Funny What did you think Of Quincy Jones His interview Where he was him. They all look in Minnesota like all the brothers ran to get white women and they all look half-breed. Funny. What did you think of Quincy Jones' interview where he was saying that Richard Pryor slept with Marlon Brando and Marvin Gaye and James Baldwin? I don't think he lied about anything. I think when you get older, you don't filter. And they asked him questions, he gave

them the answer. I don't think he lied. But he has apologized for putting that business out there. Maybe I what he said? Maybe I shouldn't have said it. I just think they caught him at a moment. You know, sometimes they catch you at a moment. You said, I'm tired of, hey, no, no. He's a cool person. I just think the guy asked the question. He goes, you want the answer?

Because if you read the interview, he didn't just start spewing. The guy kept asking. He said, all right. Remember now, they said, oh, he's old. I said, no, man, he quit drinking. His clarity. I just talked to Quincy. Quincy is clear as a bell. He's clear. He's clear right. Remember now, they said, oh, he's old. I said, no, man, he quit drinking. His clarity. I just talked to Quincy. Quincy is clear as a bell. He's clear. He knew what he was saying.

He's clear as a bell. It's interesting, though, because it's like people be trying to rewrite people's legacies. But I'm like, I don't care if Richard Pryor messed with me. But Richard said it. But Richard said it. Richard said it. So he didn't say that people got mad. He said, no.

Even his wife said it. Even his daughter said it maybe one time. Maybe one time. Yeah, Richard talked about it. Richard wasn't ashamed of nothing. You know what made Richard work? Sometimes he would say stuff like, oh, God, Richard, you can't say that. He'd just say that.

I said, Richard, I said it with Richard one time. You know, man, that's a lot of truth. Yeah, man, hey, but at least they can't bring it back on me. There you go. It's almost like that eight mile. When my man jammed himself up, there was nowhere to go. I call that living your truth.

When you live your truth, nobody can use it against you. They can't. Barack Obama put that book out so when he ran for president, he wasn't going to run. He just had him put that book out.

He said everything. He do everything. Trump is just the biggest liar that ever lived. I used to work for him back in the day. Did you? At Trump.

It's in the 80s. But remember, he hung out with Mike Tyson. He was Don King. That's why Whoopi said, this dude ain't the dude we knew. Right. He was always a con artist, but he was hanging out with rappers and everybody. You used to work for him doing what?

Yeah. He used to be at Sirius all the time. Really? Yeah. Going to all the fights and stuff. Got you. But he, remember, he didn't want to win. He threw things at like, build that wall.

He don't know about a wall. He just threw it out and he knew he got all all the poor uneducated white people who feel they've been displaced Trump winning forget Trump he's one man

it made me lose faith in this country because I said we are no better now than I was born in 56 even after having Barack in for 8 years oh no we've always

they like Barack but Barack had gone full tilt boogie on him, think about it. Being the first black anything, it's like, hey man, we're going to try to make this agenda work. We're going to get this thing

going on. Smart black man. But what happens is, if he had said, look, this is what we're going to do. This is what we're going to do with this. We're going to do this. We're going to do this. Because toward the end, he was that cat. And then Michelle, she scared the hell out of him. She full-tailed Boogie. Think about it. They hated him. He got in because America was ready. That new young America. But remember,

you had people like Matt Damon. I'm disappointed in you, Mr. Obama. I'm like, he didn't do what? Do everything to make you happy? So I look at the pressure of what happened with Barack Obama. Look at him now as an activist. That's a free brother.

Right now, when you have to worry about making everybody happy. He's living his best life right now. He's living his best life. He gets to do what he did. He gets to do the things he believes in. What do you think about Black Panther is resonating with Black America so much? Man, it's resonating with everything. Think about it.

It couldn't make that kind of money. You got some Klan members sitting in the front row. They ain't going to admit it. They're going to be of money. You got some Klan members sitting in the front row. They ain't gonna admit it. They gonna let you know. Wakanda forever. I'm like, yo, man, this movie was for us, there were little extra things. We were so happy to see black people, black heroes, dark skin,

bald head. I said, Jesus, that was the most eclectic group of blacks I think we'll ever see in another movie. Think about this. This is about as militant a name as you can give a movie and give a comic book. And coming from Africa, and everybody wanted to see it. Almost at a billion in two weeks.

Yeah. Insane. I've seen it three times already. I look at them, man. That's part of, you guys are part of something. It's like being part of Roots or something. You just, no matter what else you do, you did Black Panther. No matter what else happens.

I look at them. Look, she matter what else you do, you did Black Panther. No matter what else happens. I look at their, look, she's getting ready to do, play, she went to Trevor Noah's show. Oh yeah, Lupita. Lupita went to Trevor Noah's show.

I said, I want to play the mother and what's the producer? She's doing his book, yeah. See, look, now you get power with that.

Now, she's empowered. I'm glad you said that, man. She's empowered. You know, they had this thing where they was trying to get

Disney to give like 25% back to the black community. I can't do, stop. All those people are going to be empowered and do things like what Lupita is doing now They had this thing where they was trying to get Disney to give like 25% back to the black community. Dude, stop. All those people are going to be empowered and do things like what Lupita is doing now. Being able to make the Trevor Noah story. Ryan Coon is going to be the biggest director in Hollywood. They don't have to give 20%. They don't give 20% to the white community.

Dude, my thing, go get it. That movie shows you. Go get it yourself. And it shows these kids you can go out and possibly want to be involved in technology. Yes. Because I think that was exciting to see. That was great. Yeah.

And the female. Mm-hmm. Female doing science. Absolutely. All right, we have more with Sinbad when we come back. Don't move. 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 actor, comedian Sinbad in the building. Now, let's talk about Bill Cosby. You're a good friend of Bill Cosby. Yeah. Did you reach out to him recently after his daughter passed? Yeah, man. I just, I know everybody calls, you know, you lose somebody. So I

just left a message with Aaron, his daughter, you know, trying to give it a couple of days. I don't know how that is. He lost two kids, man. Yeah. You know, I don't know how that is. And now, with the way his name is seen, you know, I don't know how, you know, I don't know if the outpouring is even the same. But, you know, to lose a child like that, man, I don't know.

I don't know how my heartbreak would be. I don't know how my heartbreak would be. You just send your condolences and your prayers. Yeah, prayers. You know what we do now online so much? I send you love and light. What is light? What light did you send me?

We're doing stock lines. But the world is so dark. Yeah, yeah. You need a little light. Send love and light. You know what? What light did you send me? Quit doing stock lines. But the world is so dark. Send love and light. You know what I can do, man? All I can send you is, man, I'm here. Because you can't. People say I'm sending love and light. Did you really send light? Tell me exactly what you meant. Tell me, because I don't see it. I'm on this side.

I'm in my rent. My lights are turned off. What light did you send? I think they're just saying that when the world is dark. Maybe from the phone when it lights, when you see it. Yeah. Darkness is like negativity, so you want to be the positive person. But that's kind of a statement like what's up? You know what we say, what's up? Can we send love and light, please, and not be

criticized for it? I want to send some love and light to everybody listening. I think social media has made certain words mean nothing to me. Me too, because I hate problematic. Social media has made me, everybody wants to be a guru. People can't just say, hey, man, have a good day. Look, they got pictures of themselves. She wants to walk strong.

Who is she? You? Say I. I want to walk strong. She wants to be strong. How do you feel about all of these shows that they're talking about rebooting? A lot of the shows from the 90s, like Martin and whatever. If they do it right.

We would love to see. I always wondered what a grown Martin would have been like. Yeah. And it's a shame, though, that him and Harold Dwayne are breaking up now. It's crazy, man. It's 27 years in game. Yeah. Whew.

That's 27 years in game. Right. Would you be down for a different world reboot? You know what? We've been trying to get the reboot to be like we're professors. You know, Kadeem and them should be professors. And he went to work in Japan. If they came from that place, finding some new kids,

but they have to ride it the way Cosby had it done. Cosby was a smart man. See, the problem is, do you have the people who are smart as the people who created the first show? That's it. Like, Roseanne's coming back. They got to be. If they're not Trump supporters on Roseanne, something ain't right.

Yeah, they're Trump supporters. They got to be real. They got to be real. They got to be Trump supporters. They got two writers who not. Whitney Cummings is producing it, and they don't. Wow. Yeah.

Because I would think that they would definitely be walking with the Make America Great Again hat on. But you know what, though? If you don't believe in Trump, if you've ever been in a debate, I don't know if you ever guys ever did a debate. Debate, they make you do both sides of the argument. That's what made me a thinker when I was in high school. I mean, my teacher, when you think about this, I debate the other side.

I said, what? It made me look how this guy's gonna argue with me. You guys see how he'll argue with me. So that way, that's how you can chop him down. My son has to do that now in school. Smartest move. If you do both sides, now you can see both sides of an argument. You really need to.

That's true because I was at this event for the University of the West Indies and they were saying If you do both sides, now you can see both sides of an argument. You really need to. And you talk about religion. That's true because I was at this event for the University of the West Indies, and they were saying we always have Democrats up here, and we never have anybody really from the other side arguing the other side. And that is true. We don't really ever do that. We don't want them. We said we don't want them.

No, let them come. Let the dumbness come out. Sometimes let the dumbness be real. I said, well, she'd be allowed to speak at the school. Yeah. He might not leave, though. Y'all let him come in. I'm like this. If he that stupid, bring him in and let him talk.

Let him talk. I agree with you real quick. You said something about Cosby in a different world. But didn't Debbie Allen take the reins of that show? Debbie Allen directed. When Debbie got there, the show turned. Debbie got there. When Debbie got there, man, I got free.

What do you mean free? Oh, man. Make your own lines, say what you want to say? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Debbie got there. When Debbie got there, man, I got free. What do you mean free? Oh, man. Make your own lines, say what you want to say? Yeah, she let me do stuff, man. The first two, for a while, it was like, why am I here? I didn't know why I was there. I don't know why I'm here. I was just wasted, man.

And then Debbie Allen told me, listen here, she said, I'm going to say technical difficulty. I just want you to make something up. So I would talk to the extras. Look, man, we're going to do this, we're going to do this. And we were just, I was having fun. I had fun. say technical difficulty. I just want you to make something up. So I would talk to the extras. Look, man, we're going to do this. We're going to do this. And we were just, I was having fun. I had fun. I had fun.

Because Cosby gets a lot of the credit, but Debbie was like. Debbie directed, but Cosby was the one that put. Look, there wouldn't have been any of those sitcoms without Cosby. Not Roseanne. Not Jerry. Cosby created everybody's stuff. Because comedy was dead. And they said Magnum P.I. was going to kill him.

They say it was stupid to even try. And I love when he said, well, you know what? Either you're part of the problem or part of the solution. Boom. And then they came up with The Simpsons to kill him. No, The Simpsons was supposed to be the Cosby killer. Really? The Simpsons was supposed to be the Cosby killer on Fox, same time as Cosby.

You know what he did the first night The Simpsons came on? The beginning of The Cosby Show? His kids are watching The Simpsons. He goes, that's a good show. Really? Right back in their face. Wow, I never saw that episode. They watch it.

That's hilarious. Yes. I never knew that. They sit there, they go, I love that Simpsons show. And Simpsons is like, what? He ain't intimidated? Bring it. So what made them bow out then?

No, they went their route. Cosby Show went its route. For the eight seasons? Different world. Theyby Show went its route. For eight seasons? Different world. They canceled. They hated it. You know what? Why?

I thought it was a great show. Oh, no. That's the reason I went to Hampton. They canceled it. They canceled it because it wasn't supposed to be great. Cosby wasn't supposed to be great. Don't just stand living single.

It wasn't supposed to be great. Look at Tyler Perry. That was an accident. Right. He was taping them plays. Lionsgate. They were trying to get in the game. So they said,

well, let's just tape some of these. We'll put them out. Boom. Blew up. Blew up. Nobody anticipated. Nobody anticipated. Oprah, I think it was King World, allowed her to own her show after three to five years because they didn't think they were going anywhere.

Big mistake. Yeah. Big mistake. Remember, she was going against Phil Donahue in Chicago. They said he had to move to New York. She moved to King. Cosby was against Magnum P.I. Magnum P.I. got canceled.

So with the surges now that Black Hollywood is having. I don't know what that means because I still haven't seen what they call Black Hollywood. Remember, it was the Black Pack back in the 90s. Yeah. And I always say, look, man, if you don't pay attention, this will be done. I used to talk to the cast members of Different World.

You know, man, we'll be able to cover Jet Magazine when it happens to the cast of Different World. It doesn't happen for us like a white actress. Like Brad Pitt

gets to be in little stuff and grow up. All these guys get to grow and be something else. I said, we could just be the biggest star on the face of Earth and just go away.

And that's been the way it works. Now is the time. I love what Ava DuVernay and all them are doing. Keep creating your own project. Remember, they called them Blaxploitation movies in the 70s. We were killing the game, and they said, wait a minute.

When we started directing our own, so they were directing, but when we started directing our own, they said, well, it's Blaxploitation. We even took on that word, Blaxploitation, and said, no, that was the smartest movie they did to kill it. Blaxploitation. Did they exploit us? No, it was black exploitation. We even took on that word, black exploitation. I said, no, that was the smartest movie they did to kill it. Black exploitation.

Did they exploit us? No, it was movies. Was it different than Death Wish and all the other movies we watched? So now we were told, it's negative for us, but let's get rid of it. Let's only have positive movies.

I said, we don't want to just live positive lives. You know, Godfather, everybody wants to watch Godfather, but when we do a black gang, I said, just make sure the black gang says, this is cool. You know, Godfather, everybody wants to watch Godfather. But when we do a black gangster, I said, just make sure the black gangster is just as cool. You know, like New Jack City was cool, just like Godfather cool. It was gangsters, but you realize they could have been anything.

They could have been businessmen. They could have been anything else they wanted to be. You know, sometimes black people, we're our own worst enemy with that. Because we'd be like, why are you making this kind of film, putting us in this light, portraying us this way? You know what the problem is this? We don't mind that we got enough other ones. That's true. White shows have enough positive shows.

You got gangsta, we got This Is Us. We have a nice balance. So yeah, you got a balance. We just want the balance. Remember, giving us a show with love or romance, that's the killer. We can't show black love. We can't show romance. That's the thing they don't want.

They don't want to show a couple. I would find comedies that I want to do that were not written black. I didn't want anything that was written black. I said, let me do what I got to do with it. I find these scripts. As soon as I get it, they go, they want to get rid of the female co-lead with you and give you a male partner or a dog. And I'm like, why can't I just keep the female? They don't want to show that.

Wait, they pitch shows to you where you have a male partner? No, no. Not a sexual partner. In the movie, it was a female. But then let's do the comedy. You and the buddy-buddy comedy. Oh, okay. I thought you meant something else.

No, no. I'm not Brokeback. They wouldn't play Sinbad like that. I'm not Brokeback Mountain. And I'm just not. I'm not the good actor. I'm not. Well, Sinbad's going to be at Caroline's all weekend.

That's right. Thursday. Tonight at 7.30. Why'd you have to end it on that? Right. 7.30 at 10. You thought I'd know. 7.30 at 10. You can get up carolines.com for your tickets. He's looking for a partner. And we appreciate you for joining

us every time, man. Yeah, we always enjoy your conversations. I know, bro. Absolutely. It's Simba. I like that, man. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club.

So listen up. T.I. has lifted that ban against Houston's. That's because he said they were racist and they had racist policies. Well, according to sources close to T.I., he's had several meetings with executives at the Atlanta area Houston's

and they have agreed to certain things. They assured him there will be no racial discrimination in seating customers. People have been complaining about that already.

They also said the dress code would be more relaxed because T.I. felt like the dress code would discriminate against relaxed because T.I. felt like the dress code would discriminate against African-Americans. And they also agreed to bring more minorities into the restaurant's business. Go ahead, T.I. All right, T.I.

Great job. T.I. out here getting things done. Okay, putting that big vocabulary to good use. So now you can go back to Houston's if you hadn't been going. Thankfully, they were receptive to listen to what he had to say and the community's complaints. I'm sure Jeezy's happy. Because of the ban.

I'm sure Jeezy's happy about that because he's addicted to Houston's. He loves the spinach dip. Well, let's take it to Houston now. Trey the Truth. Now, he's still banned on the radio out there. Still? Yes, and he has now taken legal action to fight that ban. Now, previously he had done that against the program manager

and Radio 1 back I think it was about eight years ago. But that case got dismissed. Well, now he has a new case that he's filed. He even talks about all the relief that he's been providing to people in Houston since Hurricane Harvey hit. We see that every single day. We see it. You just had to explain that to me. And to this day, it's still happening.

And that radio station acknowledged every other celebrity except for Trey the Truth who gave their time and money to help Houston. Which is petty as hell, by the way. That's very petty. Trey the Truth is a hometown hero. He's out there helping the people of Houston, helping the community, and you won't even acknowledge his brother because of some petty past

feud that you had with Trey the Truth? That's corny as hell. Right, and that feud all started back at Trey Day in 2009. There was a shooting. Eight people were shot during that incident, and there was back and forth. He went up to the radio station,

did an interview, and they just had some... And by the way, when you got personalities on the station who've been in Houston for so long, they supposed to go to them lame-ass executives and say,

man, what are y'all doing? This man means more to the city of Houston than this goddamn radio station. It might be a personality he had a conflict with, you know what I mean? But at this point, they should talk it out. Trey does too much for that community. Too much.

And it's like they have this just stubborn, we will never ever give in for anything. It doesn't even make any sense anymore at this point. He's willing to come to the table. Where is he going? I want to know what Trey did. Whose wife did Trey sleep with at that radio station? What did Trey do? Well, I guess he did a diss record against the personality.

A diss record? That's it. That's all? You know how many diss records go on Charlamagne? Matter of fact, my single right now is with Trey. By the way, you know what I hate about that? The fact that he don't say my name clear enough. I know.

Okay. We know you want your name heard. You know I want my recognition. If you're going to diss me, at least you say my name. But you know what the worst part is? I remember when all this was happening because I spoke to Trey at the time and they would fire you at the station

even if you weren't at work, if you were at a club and played one of his songs. Somebody got fired for that. Oh, that person could have sued. I hope Trey wins that lawsuit and I hope that Trey gets his own Quiet Storm show.

I think they need to bring the Quiet Storm back and let Trey the Truth host it. No. Because Trey got that deep. Well, not on that other station. If they're going to give him a show, they got to give it Quiet Storm back and let Trey the Truth host it. No. Because Trey got that deep. Well, not on that other station. If they're going to give him a show, they got to give it a home. On our station.

This is Trey the Truth. But anyway, Trey has a lot of great things happening with him. He has a baby on the way also. That's because Thug Love is real. Shut up, man. You can't see Trey the Truth hosting a Thug Love show. I've never heard him scream or anything. He just always has that same.

He's never. Same boat. This is him. Barry White. Alright, now let's talk about Omarosa. She was on with Stephen Colbert and she had a lot of things to say about working for Donald Trump.

She talks about escaping the plantation and being so loyal to him because she was friends with him for 15 years. So certain things she just can't say. And here is Omarosa. He's going to come after me with everything he has. Like I'm going up against a gazillionaire.

I'm tired of being muted. I've been just putting all this stuff, just watching stuff, never saying anything because I'm going to the streets. Oh, Lord. And it just gets ditches. That's the mantra. Come on, Amorosa. I have been so loyal to the point where people are looking at me like, something is wrong.

Like, why wouldn't you just say something? But that was all I had is my word, and I've been so loyal. But, ooh, freedom. I'm emancipated. I feel like I just got freed off of a plantation. Did she do these snitches get stitches analogy? Yes. Who gave Omarosa her Fisher-Price, I'm black now, starter kit that comes with certain lingo?

Snitches get stitches. Okay? Like like how all of a sudden you was on the plantation you was willingly on the plantation you was volunteering to pick the cotton okay snitches all right here's more from the street here's more of amarosa the white house that i worked in that trump administration was it was troubling and it was it was very difficult and my analogy of it being a plantation, being an ecosystem of work where people feel oppressed is pretty clear. When you aren't allowed to do the job you were brought to do,

to help be a change agent, to help be the liaison for communities that needed that assistance, that's where that oppression comes from. And that's what that analogy meant, Stephen. You picked a side, Omarosa. Now you gotta stay there. Okay, you know how you know Omarosa Trash? She's a black woman

and other black women don't even come to her defense. I don't think anybody likes her. She's out here using the trigger words, trying to stir up the emotional and cultural outrage that makes you feel like, you know, you have an obligation to stand with her and they're still not standing with her. Right.

That's how you know Omarosa is trash. So we could support everybody black, but not Omarosa. But not Omarosa. If Netflix offered Omarosa half a million dollars, people would say they were paying her too much. Okay? Well, when Stephen Colbert introduced her, he introduced her as someone who went from the White House

to the Big Brother house and managed to make it out of both of them alive. So that's why we heard that Big Brother clip, and then we heard her talking to Stephen Colbert about the plantation and escaping from the plantation. And shut up, Omarosa. You was not escaping. You was there willingly volunteering to pick the cotton.

Now, one of the biggest news items that also happened from the White House most recently was the resignation of Donald Trump's communications director, Hope Hicks, who was also Omarosa's boss. And Hope Hicks did admit that she lied on Trump's communications director, Hope Hicks, who was also Omarosa's boss. And Hope Hicks did admit that she lied on Trump's behalf and she didn't give any details on what she lied about, but here's what Omarosa had to say. I would suspect the first big one might be about crowd size, but I don't want to really go into it.

Oh, no, please, let's go into it. No, please, let's go into it. You worked in the Office of Communications. Let's communicate how big the crowd was. Let's communicate, yeah. You know, I got to attend the inauguration of Bill Clinton, Bush, Obama, and when we got to the Trump inauguration and they said this was the largest crowd size, I'm like, man, I've been to a lot of inaugurations.

This wasn't the biggest crowd size. Don't you talk bad about your master now. I don't want to hear that. Don't you talk bad about your master now, Omarosa. Okay? All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. Oh, my goodness. Charlotte Martin.

Yes. We'll give you a donkey too. Listen, I don't really like to give donkey of the day to athletes for things that they do on the court, because today to athletes for things that they do on the court because I can't do nothing that they do on the court because they're superior athletes. But every so often, somebody gets the credit they deserve for not being stupid but looking stupid. And I need Wesley Johnson of the Los Angeles Clippers to come to the front of the congregation because I've watched this clip at least 75 times since 6 a.m. this morning.

We would like to have a word for him, and I think he could use the prayer. Geesh. All right, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. You get donkey at a thing you need to jump ass. You get donkey at a thing you need to jump ass.

You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day, huh? I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes They want this man to throw them blows, man They wait for Charlamagne to tap these gloves Let's go They had to make a judgment of who was gonna be on the Donkey of the Day

They chose you The Breakfast Club, bitch Who's Donkey of the Day today? My T, though I already got my T Come on, you gotta do your donkey, man I'm talking to my niece, now Donkey of the Day for Thursday, March 1st

goes to Wesley Jamar Johnson of the Los Angeles Clippers. He's 30 years old and been in the NBA for seven years. And I know for a fact I can't do what he does and he can't do what I do. I don't like to critique professional athletes when it comes to their skills because they are just physically blessed in a way that I am not. And I know it takes a lot of hard work

to get to the professional level, so I respect it. But oftentimes, things happen in professional sports where I have to give someone the credit they deserve for being stupid, usually for off-the-field issues. If they do something on the field, they can get it, too. But oftentimes, things are out of their control on the field. See, it's just a battle of superior athletes versus superior athletes. Skill versus skill. Will versus will. But when one athlete is simply more elite than the other,

sometimes you end up being a donkey, not because you did something stupid, but because you look stupid. And last night, Wesley Johnson of the Los Angeles Clippers looked extremely stupid. Now, I've been on this planet damn near four decades. I've seen people get dunked on. I've seen killer crossovers happen before. I've seen Allen Iverson shake Tyrone Lue and step over him. And up until last night, I thought that was the

most disrespectful thing I had ever seen in my life on an NBA court. But along came James Harden going one-on-one with Wesley Johnson. Now, if you didn't see the game, it was 28-7 at that point. The Rockets were absolutely having their way with the LA Clippers. James Harden hit Wesley Johnson with his patented left-to-right crossover. He hopped back on the wing, and Wesley Johnson had an anxiety attack. Oh, boy. Straight panic attack, okay? Wesley Johnson looked like he was going through his girl's phone,

and he saw a penis pic from Safari. Wesley Johnson looked exactly like Wendy Williams when she passed out on live TV. Like, it was that same look people get when the Grim Reaper in the trench coat, the hat in the shades, comes for you in the Crossroads video, you know? James Harden was the Grim Reaper last night, and he touched Wesley Johnson in between his eyes.

Wesley Johnson's eyes turned black, and it's like he started doing the Black Boy JB dance. JB Black Boy dance, whatever you young kids call it. He was on one leg, and he hopped backwards about 10 feet away from James Harden. And as Wesley Johnson was doing the Black Boy JB dance, the one leg he was hopping on gave out on him. And he just collapsed to the floor. Now, I'm going to play a clip of it, but the clip will do you no good. You just have to see it.

But let's just play a little bit of the clip. Let me just hear the reaction. One-on-one here. Yeah, James doubling up the Clippers. Clean up on aisle three. Clean up on aisle three. Someone call someone because there's a clean up on aisle three as a man is down. How does it look

from court angle? Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. That's not good. That is just not good. Here it is from up top. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. That's not good. That is just not good. Here it is from up top. Ouch. Now, if you watch it on Revolt TV, you can see it, but if you're just listening to us on the radio, you can tell from the reaction of the crowd,

you can tell from the reaction of the announcers that it wasn't good. When the announcer says it's a cleanup on aisle three, he's telling you, Wesley Johnson, that you indeed looked a mess. All right. The white man said, Wesley Johnson, that you indeed look the mess. Alright, the white man said, someone calls someone. I thought he was about to say 911, but James Harden made you look so stupid

that the white man announcing the game couldn't remember three simple numbers that you used during an emergency. Now, after James Harden made Wesley Johnson do the block boy JB dance, and after Wesley Johnson's one leg that he was hopping on while doing the dance gave out on him, I thought the play was dead. Well, actually, I thought Wesley Johnson was dead because Wesley Johnson took a brief nap

right there on the Staples Center floor. Okay, well, people thought he was sleeping, but I actually think he laid down to contemplate life. See, life comes at you fast. Almost as fast as James Harden's left to right crossover, but when it hits you like that, sometimes you have to just lay down and contemplate is it all worth it? Wesley Johnson making 5.8 million dollars this year

great money but money isn't everything and in that moment when you're laid out on the Staples Center's floor and you know you just became a meme when you know you're about to be all over ESPN for all the wrong reasons in that moment after being crossed over you realize why James Harden is making $30.4 million this season

and you're making $5.8 million. You have to ask yourself, is it really worth it? But James Harden, I mean, you know, who we have seen for the past couple of seasons step up in a big way. You know, he cut off all the IG models and all the Kardashians he had been seeing. We see him cut them off and get focused, and he has been playing on an otherworldly level. Drop one of the clues bombs for James Harden, okay?

I have to commend him in this whole situation because this man genuinely looked down on the floor at Wesley Johnson with concern. I mean, he actually paused. A hard pause. It was like, was there a delay of game pause? Did the ref blow a whistle pause? A DJ Envy asking Safari, was that really his meat pause?

Harden then actually took his shooting hand off the ball, stood stationary as if he was posing for the meme he knew he had just made. He then placed his left hand back on the ball and casually drained the three-pointer, nothing but net, to put the Rockets up 31-7. Now, James Harden was questioned by authorities about this play, and he told law enforcement, I didn't mean to kill him, officer. I was just trying to figure out what he was doing.

I was going to shoot it, but I was waiting to see to figure out what was going on. I was confused. Like, did the ref call side out of bounds? Listen, James Harden, we were all confused, but no one was more confused than Wesley Johnson. And, Wesley, I'm not giving you the credit you deserve for being stupid because there is nothing you could do, but you will get the credit you deserve for looking stupid, even though it's not your fault.

Simple case of big fish eats little fish, okay? James Harden is Chris Rock and you're Monique. It's levels to these Netflix deals, and it's levels to NBA players, and Wesley Johnson is simply not on James Harden's level. That's all it boils down to. Please give Wesley Johnson of the Los Angeles Clippers the biggest hee-haw. Uh-uh.

Uh-uh. Well, well, well. Now, I'm going to tell you something, though. What? Wesley Johnson, y'all played a Rockets on March 15th, exactly two weeks from today, in Houston. And you Clippers better not act like little bitches, all right? James Harden smoked your goddamn cousin in front of you,

blew his ankles off in front of your face, and you ain't going to do nothing? DeAndre Jordan, you better let nothing ride, okay? You better go in there and smoke, okay? You want all the smoke, all right? All the goddamn Rockets, I don't care who they are, Chris Paul, James Harden, Eric Gordon, all of them, okay? Wesley, is you down?

Is you down to ride, fool? Okay. I'm with you, though. I'm with you. Well, that was very passionate. I'm thinking old New York Knicks, old Detroit Pistons. Do A. A.

Do what you got to do. Old Dennis Rodman. Do what you got to do, Wesley. A. Do what you got to do. Grab him by his beard and pull him to the floor. I need some to do. Grab him by his beard and pull him to the floor. I need some get back. Grab him by his beard, pull him to the floor.

That's all I'm telling you. You don't want to hurt the man. I ain't saying hurt. I'm just saying grab him by his beard, pull him to the floor. All right. All right. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today.

Paul Wesley Johnson only played six minutes in that game after that. I think he got out the game. He had no points, no assists. He can actually sit down for the rest of the season. No steals. Oh, my God. He was 0 for 1. Now's a good time to fake an injury. It was out the game. He had no points, no assists. He can actually sit down for the rest of the season. No steals. Oh, my God. He was 0 for 1. Now's a good time to fake an injury.

It was a bad game. Go on injury reserve list for the whole rest of the year, man. It's okay, Wesley. All right. We'll understand. Thank you for that donkey today. Up next, ask Yee. 800-585-1051.

If you got a question for Yee, you can call her right now. You need relationship advice, you can call Yee right now. All right, the number again is 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. That was Busta Rhymes. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Ye. Hello, who's this? What's going on, Breakfast Club? It's T. T, man, what's your question for Ye? All right, me and my girl, I just need some respect.

But like, she ain't respecting anything like that. She want to be with me, but probably in a relationship, she got to understand that respect comes involved, man. That's it. Okay, so she wants to be with you. How does she not respect you? Every time we get into it, you don't run into telling our business. Okay, so y'all get into an argument, and she tells everybody what happened.

Yeah, you can say, not everybody, but, like, yeah, other people. Like, who is these other people? Family members? Like, who do you mean when you say other people? She keep it under with family members, but it's off the wall, like, when she go other board and, like, and tell, like, other dudes and, like, like, yeah, other dudes. I feel like she be having pointless conversations. Okay, so y'all get into an argument,

and she goes and tells other guys. Who are these guys? Her friends, people that like her? You know, probably, like, groupies, probably somebody she dealt with in the past. Oh, yeah, that's unacceptable. That's not something you should, you shouldn't be telling your business

and your relationship to people you used to talk to, ever. Thank God, thank God. Okay, thank God, thank God, thank God. You need to listen to this conversation, because I be trying to talk to ever. Thank God. Thank God. Okay. Thank God. Thank God. Thank God. You need to listen to this conversation because I be trying to tell this off the wall that she can't be going over the cat. Because they're always, no matter what, even if she's wrong, they're going to agree with her. She ain't going to put a sex bucket to these dudes.

That's what I'm trying to tell her. She knows that too, but I'm trying to tell her stuff is off the wall and stuff because I could be doing crazy, five stuff, but I got to be a role model because I got daughters. That's the bad thing about being a father with daughters, man. You can't be like how you used to be. That's not a bad thing for you to be actually a good person and a good, there's nothing wrong with that. I feel like a sucker.

Okay. So what does she say when you address her and tell her, in our relationship, I don't want you talking to these other dudes and telling them our business. How does she say when you address her and tell her, in our relationship, I don't want you talking to these other dudes and telling them our business? How does she respond? I mean, I know she feel like it. I know she know that it's wrong. But, like, at the same time, like, we in a problem in a relationship,

like, it either could go both ways. Like, I feel like I put too much time in this relationship to, like, actually, like, end it. I know Charlamagne be talking about, you got to go through your whole phase. And I be like, yo, sometimes I be like, oh Mala, you gotta go through your whole phase. And I'd be like, yo, sometimes I'd be like, oh, I think you just go through your whole phase. Okay, so the bigger problem is you don't feel like she's ready to settle down. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I don't feel like she is,

but then she's telling me otherwise. I'm trying to say she's telling me otherwise. She can't tell you anything, but she has to show you. And if her actions aren't showing you that she's ready to settle down and be with just you, then I think you're smart enough to know what it is. I mean, you're right, then I think you're smart enough to know what it is. I mean, you're right, but I'm saying, like, that ain't what she's saying.

Like, that's what I'm trying to say. Yeah, but you don't believe what she's saying. Anybody could say anything. You're right. You know, if her actions aren't showing you that, then it is what it is. Like, you can't just let somebody do whatever they want to do, and then, well, she says she loves me, she says she wants to be with me. How many times have you said things that weren't true?

Me to her? In general. I'm just saying, she could tell you me. She says she wants to be with me. How many times have you said things that weren't true? Who, me to her? In general. I'm just saying, she could tell you anything. You know what it is. Yeah. So now you got to make your decisions based on what it is that you know. You got to let her know. You have to show me that what you're telling me, it doesn't match up.

So you have to show me. Show me that you're willing to be in a relationship. Show me that you're ready. Show me that you want to be with me and only me. And that you're willing to sacrifice these, quote-unquote friends and exes so that we can make our relationship stronger. Yeah, and then she gets mad, like, I'm in a problem, like, I ain't trying to be, like, social media relationship goals and all that with her, because, like, I don't be posting, I don't be posting myself, but I don't even be posting

stuff like that, and she want to post all this extra stuff. I'm like, nah, you ain't about to be having me on the gram, Facebook, whatever, and, like, you ain't about to be having me on the gram, Facebook, or whatever. And like, DM is talking to you. That's like straight up sucker moves and I ain't with it. You worry too much about what other people are saying about you. You think so? Yes, don't worry about what other people. Who cares?

If she want to post her man, you her man. But that's being a sucker. How would you feel if your dude posts you, but you talk to other seniors? That's the problem. The problem is that she needs to cut all that immature stuff out. That's all. It's immature.

It's a sign of insecurity. She's got to be secure in her relationship with you, and she shouldn't need all that extra attention. All right. All right. Well, good luck to you, man. I hope you guys work it out. But just remember, somebody telling you something

and somebody showing you something is two different things. Thanks, yo. Have a good morning, yo. Appreciate that, Yee. Good luck, bro. Ask Yee, 805-85-1051. We got more with Yee when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Gold Link with Crew. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hi, anonymous caller. Good morning. Hey, anonymous. Good morning. How are you? I love you guys, by the way,

and thank you for gracing us with your funny and your authentic authenticity with the morning show. Thank you for having no taste. Okay, so anonymous, what's your question today? So I'm in my 30s, and when I was in middle school, I was molested by a family member. And I became a mother around in my 20s, and I never really, like, thought about it and really realized how it affected me over the years. Until recently, this family member was in the vicinity of where I lived. I didn't see the family member, but it brought up some strong emotions.

And with that being said, it's kind of like, you know, some of my family members did know that it happened. I don't know if they believed or not at the time I was younger, but I did make it known that it did happen to me. So now as an adult, I feel like, okay, I think I really need to deal with this because obviously I'm not over it now. And I just kind of wanted to know, like, obviously I know I should go to counseling, but I think I almost feel like an anger for the family member. And I feel like, okay, they need to suffer some kind of consequence for this because, you know, it was my mother who passed. It was her brother. So I just kind of wanted to know, besides counseling,

like what advice could you give to me as to how to deal with this and how to cope with it? I think it's really important for you to be able to express your feelings and tell your story and if that means that you need to get in some support groups I think it's great that you've been able to identify these issues that you've had

stemming from that and to identify where that's come from and that you also know that you need to be in therapy and to figure out those things. And I'm not sure what the statute of limitations are on reporting something, but I know you said that you feel like there needs to be some type of repercussions from his actions, right? Yeah. Yeah. Do you want those repercussions to be something that is legal where he ends up having to register as a sex offender so that this doesn't happen to somebody else or it's not currently happening to someone else or is this you need to feel some repercussions just having the story out there and people knowing the type of person that he is

I think it's almost like I want people to know and you know after speaking to another family member about it it's kind of like you know yeah we heard about it but we didn't believe it, it's kind of like, you know, yeah, we heard about it, but we didn't believe it. So it's kind of like, no, like, I want you to know that, you know, this did happen. And I think counseling to kind of maybe guide me as to, you know, my feelings as to do I want him to be, you know, locked up for it? Or is it just, you know, what you said? I'm still trying to figure that out. And I think it's also hurtful that your family members didn't believe it as well. So that's something that you need to address. So now that you're coming forward, you know, way later on in life to talk about this, are they believing you now? You know, when I spoke to her, you know, the response was, you know, well, I want to know details and stuff. And I said, well, what are you going to do with these details? Because if

it's just kind of like just random questions and you don't plan on doing anything, then I don't want to talk to you about it. So it's kind of like, you know, well, you know, I love you both and I don't want to pick sides, but it's just kind of like you get this whole sense of it's a touchy topic and I don't want to talk about it. And why are you saying something now? You know, the typical questions that people ask in abuse. Right. The victim blaming questions where you're a victim and obviously you've had this buried for so long and now you are dealing with it and identifying it and ready to talk about it in your time yeah I said I'm ready to talk about it now and I said and that's kind of why I'm having this conversation and I said you know

it's just I feel like I'm getting there you know what might be helpful too have you ever written down just your feelings on everything and maybe an open letter to your family members based on your experiences so that instead of having to tell the story to all of them over and over maybe at one time for them to be able to see written down just what it is that you want to express um that's a good idea because i mean i have all these images and thoughts in my head about this situation like every day now so um i guess i can put it to paper, sometimes there's things that might just come out when you're writing it.

Writing is great therapy as well as going to seek professional help. But that might be a great way for you to express yourself. And then if you feel like you want to send that to them so that there's any questions

they may have asked you can be answered in that. You can say what you want to say, leave out what you feel like you're not ready to address or don't want to put out there. But that might be an excellent way for you to do something. And that might trigger for them to respond and be able to take it in and process it and digest it. Okay. All right. Yes,

I will definitely do that. That sounds, yeah, that sounds good. And then also I'm waiting to speak to a counselor. I haven't heard back yet, but I am definitely seeking that. All right. I think it's great that you're being proactive and it's a great role model because there are so many people that can sympathize and understand your story and have gone through similar situations

or know someone. So, you know, I commend you and keep pushing forward. Thank you so much and keep up the good job. You've been giving great advice. I listen to you every morning.

Thank you. I appreciate it. Good luck, Mama. Bye. Thanks. All right. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051.

We got rumors on the way yes let's talk about an artist who has over 100 million certified units in sales the highest as far as our rappers are concerned and second only to one person all right we'll get into that when we come back keep it locked it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv angela ye charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club now let's get to the rumors let's find out which artist paid 25 million Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, let's get to the rumors. Let's find out which artist paid $25 million in back taxes. It's about time.

What's going on? Rumor report. Rumor report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee. Come on. I ain't gonna lie. I just got anxiety hearing that. Yeah, now, just imagine having to owe that much money.

And that's not even all she owes. Shakira is working to settle her tax debt. Now, according to the government in Spain, they said that she owes after moving to Spain, but she kept her residency listed in the Bahamas. So she paid about $25 million, and that's only a small fraction of what the government is saying that she that she owes so that would cover her income taxes for 2011 alone so that's it so she got 25 million i mean that's just a lot they said she owes back taxes for 2012 2013 and 2014 and in order for her to not have to pay those taxes she would have have to prove to Spanish authorities that she spent fewer than 183 days

in Spain in each of those years. Well, you better get to working out. Time to hit the road. Time to go on tour. You know what I mean? You don't want to mess with the IRS. I remember my accountant died and he did my taxes wrong. So I had to pay for three years because of his wrongs and I couldn't go back to him and say, hey, this is what you

did. I'm going to tell you something. If I ever have to owe $25 million in taxes, I'm going to die. That's not all she owes, though. That's just for one year. $25 per year? It was that for 2011. I'm a faint four. So they're saying that she lived there for three years

before she officially changed her residence to Barcelona. So she had her residence listed as the Bahamas to avoid paying taxes. So now they're investigating her. Securit's got to throw the middle finger to the IRS at this point. Just tell the IRS, take the L, man. Eek. Imagine having to write that check. I'm sorry, IRS.

I was just speaking for Securit. I would never do such a thing. All right. I respect y'all. Now, earlier today, we played this clip from Diddy. So many people rapping right now. It is literally like too much, you know? I'm not knocking nobody's dream.

I just don't want the culture to get diluted, you know? Where it gets so mass produced, it doesn't mean anything. Artists have to be special. Every artist has to be unique in their own right. Well, people had a lot of conversations about this, and Diddy has since updated what it was that he meant. Everything I said yesterday was, you know, with positive intentions. Yeah, my thing is to push people to be great.

I'm not no moral compass on who's whack and who's hot. You can like whoever you want. I was just sharing some tips on how to get to the bag, and originality and something special is key. And then I was just, you know, how to get to the bag and originality and something special is key. And then I was just, you know, giving my views on the state of just being overwhelmed, trying to just really, you know, as a fan, I want to find things that I love. And it's not a whole body of work that I listen to besides maybe Black Panther right now. You're not listening to enough then, did you? Because you got the Black Panther soundtrack.

You got Nipsey Hussle's Victory Lap. You said Nipsey Hussle. Oh Lap. He said Nipsey Hussle. Oh, he did say Nipsey in the next video, yeah. I'm still bumping raps with these Layla's Wisdom. I like Drake's new records. I like Drake and Trouble record.

I like Wale been dropping. I like Sky Zoo's project. All right, now let's talk about Marshall Mathers, a.k.a. Eminem. He has gotten another milestone in his career. He actually has over

100 million certified units in sales and sales equivalent units, and and sales equivalent units. And that's from streams. That's the most out of any rapper in history. Wow, wow, wow. Now, there's only one person that is ahead of him with more certified units to date. You know who that one person is?

Elvis Presley. With 121 million units. Who? It's a woman. Beyonce. And she's black. Beyonce. It's Rihanna.

Rihanna? Oh. Drop on a pre-bomb for Rihanna. Okay. So congratulations to Eminem for this brand new, I guess they just did a whole new sweeping set of digital single certifications, and that's how he got that number, 107.5 million. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. And I just want to say for the record, while they're dropping some dope music, the females

in rap are killing it. Rhapsody and Tokyo Jets and Snow the Product and Tankback dropping music. This guy named Kaz just dropped a great album. You got Joey Badass, Vince Staples, Vic Mensa, Chance the Rapper, Big Sean 2 Chainz just dropped a dope EP. There's a lot of good music out here. I'm surprised that he isn't up on all of that.

And you ain't gonna say Drake? I did say Drake. I think Drake got, I like all Drake's new records. The God's Planet, I like the record Drake got with Trouble that Mike Will did. Okay. There's a lot of good music out there. All right. Well, shout to Revolt. We'll see you guys tomorrow.

Everybody else, the People's Choice mixes up next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. 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. There are 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.
