Now yesterday I had a long day. Shout out to Common. Me and Common went to Queens, the south side of Jamaica, Queens, to encourage people to register to vote. I guess yesterday was National Registration to Vote Day. So we were actually in the park in Queens trying to get people to sign up to vote. I guess yesterday was National Registration to Vote Day. So we were actually in the park in Queens trying to get people to sign up to vote. I also met the CEO and chairman of Starbucks yesterday as well. I didn't know he was from Brooklyn

and his story is amazing and how he got to the top and his grind and everything and he was actually in the park talking to everybody about registering to vote. So that was a dope event. South to Com. And he didn't perform, he did a poet. He did a poem. Poem was amazing about just America,

how he felt. He definitely killed it. So shout to Queens. And then after that, I headed out to the Bronx. I went to go see the Yankees take on the Boston Red Sox yesterday.

And the Yankees actually won. The Yankees won. Big Papi, who's retiring after the season, he did absolutely positively nothing. He was 0 for 5 last night. But what was funny is this guy proposed to his wife. I saw that after the season. He did absolutely positively nothing. He was 0 for 5 last night. But what was funny is this guy proposed to his wife. I saw that on the news and he dropped the ring.

He dropped the ring. I saw it. Everybody was looking. For like a good two innings, he was looking all over for that ring. He looked so struggle-faced. He looked so scared. The girl looked embarrassed. You know, he tried to do something special.

He tried to propose to his woman. He dropped the ring. He got nervous. Dropped the ring. It fell down three, like three, four flights of stairs. He couldn't find it. The whole park was looking for it, but he finally found it. And I think she did say yes. Thank goodness some grind bucket didn't

find it and slipped, slid it in his pocket. I was thinking that. I was thinking, I was like, oh, somebody got him. Somebody got him. But no, he was able to propose, and I think she said yes. So that was a good thing. So long life for me. I hope so. What about you? What'd you do yesterday? Yesterday I had a long day too. I actually did three podcasts yesterday so that was back to back to back.

You trying to break the record? Well, I did two of them from my lip service podcast because you know that new Luke Cage series is coming on Netflix. So we had the first black female superhero on Netflix. She's on the Luke Cage series. She plays Misty Knight. Did you change clothes each podcast or you just be like F it? I'm gonna wear this. No, I just was rocking series. She plays Misty Knight. Did you change clothes

each podcast or you just be like, F it, I'm gonna wear this? No, I just was rocking. Okay, go ahead. Mr. Marcus happened to be in town and hit me up.

Mr. Marcus. Now, he's the porn star. The porn star of all porn stars. That wears the dad hats. That wears the dad hats for a long time. Still had on a dad hat.

He still had on a dad hat. So he happened to be in New York. He called me yesterday. I was like, oh, I might as well knock it out while he's here. Knock it out.

Might as well knock it out. I wouldn't use those words. You know how that goes. Okay. He's a longie, huh? It took him a long time. You tell me. I don't know. And then after that, I actually was on Combat Jack's podcast. We did a Never Stop, Never Settle Hennessy special podcast. Okay.

It's a long day for me. A lot going on. All right. Yeah, so that was that. But, yeah. All right. Now, so that was that. But, yeah. All right. Now, today, Andre Harrell will be joining us. Andre Harrell. I think he's the vice president and chairman of Sean Diddy Combs Enterprises, I believe. Isn't it just Sean Combs Enterprises?

I don't know. I don't know. Throw that Diddy in there. But he wants to talk about the Revolt Music Conference. That's the conference that they have in Miami each year where they invite producers, artists, bloggers. If you have a podcast, if you just want to learn more about the industry, it's a place to go. They have all types of panels. There's performances.

It's coming up in a couple of weeks. It's actually October 13th. Yeah, the Breakfast Club will be out there, so we'll chop it up with Andre Harrell in a little bit. But let's get to the show. Front page news, what we're talking about. We are going to talk about the world's first three-parent baby. Hmm? How do you have a three?

What? I'm confused. Yeah. Three parents? Also, protests in California after, what do you think happened? Another police shooting. Yes. Okay.

We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club Morning. It's Khaled for free. Another one. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now let's get into some front page news. Now tell me about the

world's first three parent baby. I'm confused. Alright, so this is how it all went down, okay? This couple wanted to have a new baby and they did a cutting edge medical procedure by a New York City doctor. This procedure actually isn't approved here, so they actually had to do this in Mexico

where you don't need approval. Okay. But what happened is the 36-year-old mother has Lee syndrome. It's a severe neurological disorder. Their first two kids died at the ages of six years and eight months from the disease, so they had to remove the disease-causing DNA from the mom's egg, and they replaced it with a healthy sample from a donor. So that's the DNA from the mom, the donor, and the dad. So it's a little bit of DNA from two moms and then the dad.

Yeah, so they had to replace that. So that's how it went down to make sure that the baby isn't born with that syndrome. So there you have it. It hasn't been approved here. That's why they went to Mexico. So it's a little bit of the moms, plus a little bit of the person that donated, plus the male. Yes. So the baby could be like all types of different things, depending on who donates.

Exactly. That's pretty cool. Some people are saying that it's not safe. Kids would have to be tracked for decades to make sure they remain healthy. Yeah, that doesn't seem too safe. They say that altering DNA passes into unsafe scientific turf. But this couple did have two children that died from this disease. So they're willing to try.

It's passed through the DNA, so they're willing to try to make sure that their child doesn't have this. Unless it's a relative. But I'm sure that has to be really painful. You know, if it's a relative, then you say maybe the DNA is very close. That's just... Well, I hope everything works out, because that would be dope. Right. People who can't have kids are able to have them through this method.

That would absolutely positively be dope. Well, it's not that they couldn't have kids. It's just that the kids had this disease. This disease was passed down to them. And it's called Lee disease? Yeah. Okay. And let's talk about what's going on in San Diego now.

Well, a man was, a black man was reported acting erratically. He was at a strip mall in San Diego. And that is when police shot and killed him. Now, according to police officers, he pulled an object from his pocket. He pointed it at the officers and he assumed a shooting stance. One of the officers tried and failed to subdue him with a stun gun. That's when the other officer fired several times. Some people were disputing what happened.

They were saying that the man was shot with his hands raised. But the police did dispute that, and they actually produced a frame from cell phone video that was taken by a witness at the scene that showed the man. It looks like he's in the shooting stance as two officers approached with their guns drawn. So right now there have been protests, but they are peaceful protests. They're angry but peaceful. Several dozen people were gathering around and cursing at the officers. They were guarding the scene and chanting Black Lives Matter and hands up, don't shoot.

But the police are saying they want to assure the community it's a complete and thorough investigation that will be completed. What did he have in his hands? Does anybody know? Nobody knows. They said that he was acting very erratically, though he was not acting like himself. He was walking in traffic. They told him to take his hands out of his pocket several times, and he wouldn't do it. So he might have been having some type of mental...

Is this the one where they said his sister called because he was acting a little crazy, and his sister called for help? Is this the same one? No, I think several people were saying that he was acting erratically because he was out by the strip mall. All right. Damn, mall. All right.

Damn, man. All right. So another unfortunate incident. It could be some type of mental, you know, something was going on with him. We don't know yet. They're still investigating. All right.

Well, that's front page news. Now, tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent. Call us right now. Maybe you're pissed off. Maybe you had a bad night or a bad morning or you need to get some things off your chest. 800-585-1051. Tell them why you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now. Maybe you're pissed off. Maybe you had a bad night or a bad morning or you need to get some things off your chest.

800-585-1051. Tell them why you're mad. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Hey, yo, hey, yo, hey, yo. Good morning. This is Matt Rapp.

I'm going to tell you why, man. I'm going to tell you why I'm mad. I'm mad because I hung out in the club last night and there was too many good girls in there. Yo, for real, we don't need none of y'all good girls in the club. We need loose girls. We need drunk girls. We need sloppy girls.

We need girls that's just going to call away. We don't need none of y'all nice girls in there. Go home. Go away. Talk about it and tell me why you mad. Breakfast Club, for real. So, Effie, I know you do a lot of stuff in the community and stuff like that.

You out, you know, in Newark and all that, doing all the good stuff. But yesterday, you sounded real jaded talking about not perfect, my man. No, I mean, jaded talking about Stop and Frisk, my man. No, I mean, it's my opinion and everybody has their own opinion.

Of course it is and I respect that. That's why we know this country. But, you know, Stop and Frisk affected a lot of people a lot of different ways, man.

And not just guns. You were talking about guns a lot. You were talking about a lot of people said the relationship that is affected between the community

and the cops. We disagreed on that yesterday because I do feel like we talk a lot about the community's relationship with the police officers, and I don't think that stopping frisk helps that. Yeah, it really affected how people look at the cops, you know, because if you can stop for no reason,

you're going to feel like somebody's bothering you. Or you see your parents or other people on the street that you know are doing good things in the community or working every day and working hard, and you see them being thrown against the car in search for no reason. All right, thank you, bro. I've been stopping frisk before.

And yes, it's an inconvenience, and it feels horrible. But last week, I got shot at, and Nick almost murdered me. Put four bullet holes in my car. And that gun came from a horrible, one of the worst areas in New Jersey. And I honestly feel like we need

to get the guns off the streets. That's my opinion. I don't care off the streets. That's my opinion. I don't care what anybody says. That's my opinion. That's definitely your opinion. I almost was dead. I have five kids and a wife because somebody tried to murder me or carjack me or take my car, put three bullet holes in my car. Do you think

I care? I want those guns off the street. Nobody's snitching. Nobody's telling on each other. So how do we get those guns off the street? If we go to high crime areas and possibly try to pull them guns off, that's my opinion. That's how I feel. You don't like it. That's how I feel. I've been on both sides. I've been stopped and frisked and I've been almost murdered. So that's how I feel. I think certain situations with the police end up escalating from nothing and that will make that happen a whole lot more than it has been. That's all. But pulling more guns off the street is something that makes me more comfortable and makes the community more

comfortable i don't want that seven-year-old girl walking to school scared to get get shot i don't want that grandma going to church on sunday morning scared to get shot that's just my opinion and the police arresting people also doesn't make people comfortable hello who's this this is phil smith hey tell them are you mad the way the court system treats us dad. What happened? I've been a dad for, my daughter will be eight years old tomorrow. My daughter's always been in my life. Just recently, I told her mom I couldn't handle it anymore. She kidnapped my daughter for two months. Wait, you told her you couldn't handle what?

Couldn't handle the relationship, the lies, that never being there as a parent, you know, doing everything alone as a dad. Okay. And she takes my daughter, runs from Florida to Tennessee for two months. Finally, I get my daughter back nine weeks ago. And nine weeks, she's never kept one visit, never been there. And now all of a sudden she's fighting me in court for relocation. But if I was the one that didn't keep my business or support my child, I'd be a

deadbeat dad. Right. But they feel sorry for her because she don't have the money to visit her child. I'm sorry for you, bro. And I've just said that I think the court system should quit looking at the male or female

and I think they need to look at the situation for the child. I agree with you on that. I think a lot of times dads do get the short end of the stick. But tell them why you're mad. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

That was Tory Lanez with Love. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, yesterday we had a conversation about stop and frisk. And a lot of people were mad at me for some of the comments that I made. They slandered you on social media. They were mad at me yesterday.

I saw you did an interview with XXL. Yeah, they called me. XXL called me. Listen, man, if it comes a point in time, social media is going to get you. That's just the way the game goes. Well, let me explain something to people. People don't understand. They were mad. How could you say stop and frisk? It's gonna be a problem. They're gonna target Latino

and minorities. Which they have. And you are Latino and a minority. But this is my thing with stop and frisk. I've been stop and frisk before and yes, it is inconvenience. Yes, it feels like they're violating you. But I get it. But last week, I is inconvenience. Yes, it feels like they're violating you. But I get it.

But last week, I almost got murdered. Somebody shot three times into my car. I'm glad you said that. You know what? No, somebody shot three times in my car. I'm glad you said that. Ran, tried to run me off the road, and I almost died last week. I'm glad you said that.

Because behind the scenes, we were saying Envy has a personal issue. Yeah, I didn't want to say it, but because people are so whatnot now, I almost died last week. And they caught you said that. Because behind the scenes, we were saying, Envy has a personal issue. Yeah, I didn't want to say it, but because people are so, now, I almost died last week. And they caught the individuals that did it. And the place where that gun

came from and they came from was one of the worst areas in New Jersey. So I kind of feel if Stop and Frisk was in the areas where it's the worst crime areas, the highest crime areas,

where the most shootings happened, where the most assaults happened, maybe that gun would have been taken off the street. But I got five kids and a wife, and last week I almost died. Three gunshots to my car. That's the second time that's happened to you. That's the second time in about 20 years.

That's the second time somebody tried to shoot at me and take my life. Now, Nick's out there ain't marksman. So thank God that his shot was off because that could have went through the windshield and I could be dead. So if you say, well, Envy, why do you want the guns off the street? Because I want to be able to walk around safe. I want that 7 year old girl to be

walking to school safe. I want that grandmother to be that that's going to church on Sunday to be safe. I think everybody does agree we want the guns off the street. Because Nick ain't snitching. If somebody sees a shooting, they not going to tell. So guns stay on the street. So how do we get them guns off the street? We want all guns off the street. Every way possible because Nick ain't snitching. If somebody sees a shooting, they're not going to tell. So them guns stay on the street. So how do we get them guns off the street?

We want all guns off the street, but I don't want people's civil liberties taken away either. And I also feel like, yeah, we also have so many issues with the cops in our communities right now, giving them more power and more authority to do things that historically when that was happening, it was racial profiling. It was a lot of people that were inconvenienced and harassed, that were innocent people that hadn't done anything wrong. And it just makes you feel a certain way when you see people in the community being harassed,

that you know are good people, your parents, yourself, when you know you're not doing anything wrong. And that doesn't really help build our relationship with the police, which has been an ongoing issue. And like I said yesterday, I'm not saying that the stop and frisk, the way that the police did it before was right, but it needs to be altered. If it's in areas where there's high crime, high assaults, high shootings, high murders, then maybe, yeah, we need to get those guns off the street because that's 700 guns a year that's not pulled off the street.

And once again, try to murder me last week. We're going to talk about that. I want to talk about that a lot this morning because that's the conversation I was having with people yesterday. I was like, you know, I wish Envy would have explained more why he feels that way. He's been through some things. And I'm in Newark doing a backpack giveaway in the hood helping out the kids. I'm in the south side of Queens yesterday talking to people about voting. I'm in those areas. I'm there.

I'm there with my car, with my jewelry because when I was a kid, I used to see Nas driving up the hood and be like, damn, I know I could do that because he's from the same area as me. I seen Jay-Z driving through the hood in his Benz and his Rolls Royce. I'm like, damn, that could be me. He's from the same area. That inspiration, that motivation. It did get to a point where Jay-Z said, I don't be in the projects hallways. Talking about I be in the projects all day.

That sounds stupid to me. All right, let's be clear about that. He still came to the hood and he still did what he was supposed to do, whether it was talking to the kids. I mean, I'm not in the hood be in the projects all day. That sounds stupid to me. All right, let's be clear about that. But he still came to the hood, and he still did what he was supposed to do, whether it was talking to the kids. I mean, I'm not in the hood chilling in the hallways, but I'm out there talking to the kids, and I'm out there working.

But anyway, we got rumors coming up, E. Yes, we are going to talk about Mary J. Blige and her prenup, okay? What's going on with that? Because both her and her estranged husband have different things to say about it. Also, we'll talk about Vic Mensah. He was just featured in the Why I Vote series for

Vivo. We'll tell you what he had to say. We'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club.

So listen up. All right, well, Vic Mensah is taking part in Vivo's campaign, and that is Why I Vote. So basically, he's reflecting on different previous encounters that he's had with police brutality, and he talks about how voting can bring change about. Check it out. All my earliest memories with police officers were like, hey, get your hands out that hoodie before I punch you in the face. What the did I do? What I do? What law did I break? Like you live with that enough. It's hard to not feel like you are a Laquan McDonald or you are

Trayvon Martin just waiting for it to explode. I definitely encourage people to go vote so that you can have some type of voice. Yes, look at my man Vic Mitchell. We do the Respect My Vote campaign together as well. And I'm going to vote, but like I said yesterday, I'm going to keep God first. I'm going to stay working, and I'm going to get this money because I don't expect none of those candidates on a federal level to save me. Not at all. Right.

And he's had a lot of run-ins with the police, so he always talks about it and how he was raised and where he's from. And just because, you know, he's from Chicago, a lot of bad things have happened. I just feel like I need to be more involved on a local level. Like, you know, as far as the mayor, voting in the right mayor, the right sheriffs, the right superintendents of the schools. Like, that's why I feel like... Borough presidents, all that.

Yeah, that's why I feel like I want to focus my energy because that federal level, the presidents and stuff, I don't feel like that trickles down to the hood at all. But that's all that. Yeah, that's why I feel like I want to focus my energy because that federal level, the presidents and stuff, I don't feel like that trickles down to the hood at all. But that's just me. Alright, Mary J. Blige is clearly having some issues with y'all going in on her 411 campaign that she's doing with Mary J. With Hillary Clinton. Hillary J. Blige.

Hillary J. Blige. Now we told you this is coming up September 30th and it's a conversation that's going to be on Apple Music. We played that audio for you yesterday. It's called the 411, where Mary G. Blige tweeted out, everybody shut the F up. Take that. Haters, crab in a barrel, simple-minded hashtag 411.

Can we not respect Mary's legacy enough to just wait and see what the whole thing looks like on the 30th? This could be taken out of context. It could be. For all we know. Well, okay. It's possible. For all we know. Well, okay. It's possible. You laughed at it. Yes, I did, but I didn't go in.

The only thing is that it looked a little awkward, the way it was done, because Hillary Clinton's expression and how she was kind of sitting there while It could be good, though. Mary J. Blige was singing to her. It could be good. It just looked a little awkward.

I'm just tired of the whole But I love me some Mary. I love Mary, too, but I'm just tired of the whole narrative of if you're polite to police, then they won't brutalize you or they won't harass you. It's like victim blaming in a way. Right.

I don't like that. I'm tired of that. Talk to me crazy. Do whatever you want because I'm not a human being. Yeah, and then I don't like to hear it, and I definitely don't like to see it saying to somebody. Right. Okay? I can't stand that.

This doesn't sound pretty. No, it just doesn't. Well, Mary J. Blige also has been saying that her prenup is solid, but her estranged husband, Kandu, is saying that's not true. Now, she's worried because Kandu is making it sound like the prenup is not valid,

but they drew this up in 2003. They got married two days later. She filed for divorce in July. She doesn't want to give him any sp got married two days later. She filed for divorce in July. She doesn't want to give him any spousal support or anything. She wants the prenup to be just clearly laid out the way that it was. But, you know, everybody always fights the prenup. Well, Kendall needs to sit down with Mary J. Blige, and he needs to sing to Mary, okay? Yeah, I don't know if that'll work.

About getting a proper prenup. That's amazing to me that people can throw out a prenup. The whole point of it is that it's supposed to protect you in case of anything you sign it. That's what I thought. But sometimes it gets thrown out. So hopefully that doesn't happen for her. Alright, and

who has the most followers on Instagram? If you guys had to guess. Charlamagne, I know you know who it is because we already had a discussion about it, but Emmett, you know who has the most followers on Instagram? More than Taylor Swift, who has 91.4 million. More than Beyonce. More than Ariana Grande. More than Kim Kardashian. I was going to say Taylor Swift. Let me give you.4 million, more than Beyonce, more than Ariana Grande,

more than Kim Kardashian. I was going to say Taylor Swift. Let me give you a hint. A lot of her cousins probably get stopped and frisked because of her last name. Selena Gomez. Oh, I was thinking Jackson. Who?

Jackson. Who Jackson? Paris Jackson. I don't know. I always say Jackson. You thought Paris Jackson had more followers than Taylor Swift? I don't know. This guy just wanted to say Johnson.

There's no celebrities. No Johnson. Tyrone somebody. Tyrone Jackson. I don't know. Well, anyway, she has more than 100 million followers, and that's all because of a campaign that her fans made to put her over the top. So she actually has taken a break from social media.

She has some lupus-related depression that she's dealing with. She hasn't been on her tour. You know, she's just over it right now. She's dealing with it, but they did a whole hashtag, Selena, break the internet. That was to get her over that hump. And she actually has the most liked photo on Instagram. It's up to 5.6 million likes.

Did you guys see this picture of her with the Coke bottle? That's the most liked photo. Who said ooh? Some pedophile in the room. A camera guy. Okay. How old are you, Steve? 63?

He's actually 62. That was awkward. Ooh in an oven over that 19-year-old Mexican woman? All right. Jesus Christ. Well, I'm Angela Yee

and that is your rumor report. All right. When we come back, we got some front page news. We'll tell you what's going on in San Diego. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. J.M.V., Angela Yee, Char Diego. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. J.M.V., Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Finally seeing Bryson Tiller's face, by the way. Saw Bryson Tiller's face over the weekend in Las Vegas. You used to tell people how you could have signed Bryson Tiller back in the day. I told him that. I could have helped him out.

You didn't stop him and frisk him. If you'd have stopped him and frisked him more thoroughly, you'd have known that he had some hit records under his belt. Right. And I also found out that he actually got his start start and he was found at the Revolt Music Conference. Really? Yeah, he was found at the Revolt Music Conference. Yeah.

Shout out to my intern. Your former intern. My former intern. He's not your intern anymore. You're right. My former intern, Neil. He also worked for Revolt, right? Worked for Diddy.

He worked for Diddy. He was Diddy's assistant as well. So you and Diddy dropped the ball on Bryson Taylor. Yeah, pretty much. And Andre Harrell, because Andre Harrell said he heard his, he got his tape from Neil also and didn't even listen to it. And you know what the record was? Don't. His biggest record.

Yeah. That's why nobody should listen to you. Don't. Don't listen to any of these ideas about nothing. Don't bring back Stop and Frisk. Don't. Don't listen to nothing. Don't.

I don't know about that. But all right, let's get into some front page news. Let's talk about the world's first three-parent baby. Right. I know it sounds weird, but this baby was born following a very cutting-edge medical procedure. It was done by a New York City doctor who actually had to travel to Mexico because this is not approved in the United States. A very controversial procedure. But what happened is the mother of this baby has Lee syndrome, which is a severe neurological disorder.

Their first two kids died from the diseases at ages six and eight months. What the hell is Lee syndrome? It's a neurological disorder, something in your brain. Oh, okay. So that caused their first two kids to die. So what they did was they removed the disease-causing DNA from the mom's egg. They replaced it with a healthy sample from the donor. So now there's a donor involved, there's a mom, and there's a dad.

So basically, the baby has three parents. So they take mad different sperms and put it up in a baby. Well, it's only one sperm. They removed part of her egg. The DNA from her egg. Her egg. And they replaced it with healthy DNA from a donor. So that way the baby wasn't born with this disease.

Oh, so it's another woman. No, yeah, so it's a little bit of you, a little bit of you, a little bit of you. Got you. Which one of you is the woman? But, um... I don't mean it as roomy.

But anyway, so basically it's saving the baby's life, but the only thing is now this baby has three parents. Some people are saying that it's not safe. The kids would have to be tracked for decades to make sure

they remain healthy, but I say at least the kids will be alive for decades. Yeah, I wouldn't even tell the kid about that whole scenario because that's going to be hard to explain when he's trying to explain why he got two mommies. Right. Okay? Listen, we wanted you to live.

Now let's talk about the protest in San Diego. Man, a black man was reported to be acting erratically at a strip mall in San Diego, and he was shot and killed by the police. They said he pulled an object from his pocket, pointed it at the officers, and assumed a shooting stance. Now, that's according to authorities. People who were on the scene and witnesses had a different account. Some people were saying that he had his hands at his side.

His sister actually was on the scene, and she was crying because she called the police to help her brother out, and instead they ended up killing him. Black men getting shot by police. Black men getting shot by police. The stories of that are just more repetitive than radio station playlists at this point. Because I swear that story you just told sounded exactly like the story we heard. That was like, this can't be the same story.

That was a different story. But it is the same old story. Just like we're about to play Drake again. We're going to play Drake again next hour. Drake's up next. We're all about to play Drake. I don't know to play Drake again next hour. Drake's up next. We all about to play Drake. I don't know.

See what I'm saying? What's more repetitive at this point? Radio station playlists are stories of black men being shot by police. They're pretty close. Right.

The sister said, I called you to help, but you killed. Why couldn't you guys tase him? I've heard all this before. Why, why, why?

She said, I called so many times to help him. This is the same script, bro. And they ended up killing him. So sad. She's probably the man I was. And they ended up killing him. So sad.

She's probably the man I was sending call to cops. Very sad. All right. I think they were saying he had some type of mental. It's a mental disorder. It's the same script.

They were asking why they didn't tase him. They should have tased him. It sounds like Charlotte. I swear I heard the same script with Charlotte. It's like Jesus Christ. I definitely heard it yesterday.

It was like, I heard this before. And it's so sad, man. Rest in peace. I don't even know how y' like, nah, I heard this before. And it's so sad, man. Rest in peace. I don't even know how y'all keep up with all the hashtags. All right. Well, that's front page news. Now, when we come back, people were upset with me yesterday.

No, people were more than upset with you, sir. Were they? I was coming back from L.A. on the plane, and I was just reading all the comments. I was like, you know what? Social media eventually gets at everybody. Right. And I'll explain why I feel like stop and frisk couldn't work in certain places. Me and Envy actually got into a heated argument, and that doesn't happen too often.

I heard. Because I was upset. I mean, listen, Envy's entitled to his opinion. Everybody wants me to give you donkey of the day. But I have a little bit more information than everybody else as to why Envy really, really feels that way. And I feel like Envy should share that with the people this morning. We'll explain it when we come back. Yes.

I feel like if you explain it, it still doesn't make what you said right, but I think people would understand. I still don't agree, but. You don't have to. They would understand why you feel that way. That is definitely your opinion. That's my opinion. The only thing I disagree with was when I said that, you know,

Stop and Frisk targets black and Hispanics 90% of the time, and you said so. You know, I was saying so because I was going to finish my sentence. I was going to say so something, and then you cut me off, and I just let it go. So? We'll talk about it when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Fabulous. So into you morning everybody is dj mv angela yee charlamagne the god we are the breakfast club yeah and you know envy you was trending a lot on social media yesterday you was catching that slander um for your opinion yeah for your opinion on uh stop and frisk an opinion i didn't agree with ang Angelique didn't agree with. And, you know, everybody's been tweeting me since yesterday. Oh, you got to give DJ Envy donkey of the day. Global Grind even did an article. But, you know, it's kind of difficult for me to give you donkey of the day in this situation because I have a lot more information than the general public has.

And I would like for you to express some of that information as to why you have the frustration you do over all these guns on the street. All right. Well, I think we spoke about stop and frisk a couple of months ago, and I was like, I'm totally against it. And then a couple of incidents started happening. I started reading in the paper, and then something happened to me last week, Thursday morning on my way to work. Driving to work. That you didn't tell us about.

I didn't tell you about it because you guys like to make fun of things. I had to find out where it was coming from and make sure that the suspects were caught before you made fun of it. So you waited to tell us this weekend at the IHOP Festival while we was drunk and you still got made fun of, but continue.

Right, so as I was on my way to work, a car pulls up behind me, SUV, and turns on a police light. When the police light comes on, I'm looking in my rearview mirror and I'm like, this police light, something doesn't feel right about this. Very smart detail that was missing from the police light. Tell them what it was.

Because a lot of people would have stopped. It was a red light. The police light was all blue. And in New York and New Jersey, the police lights have to have, it's red and blue. But in certain places down south, the police lights are only blue, I found out. Yeah, I didn't know anything about this. So in New York places down south, the police lights are only blue, I found out. Okay. Yeah, I didn't know anything about this. So in New York and New Jersey, the police lights are red and blue.

So when I see the blue light, I'm thinking to myself, this just doesn't feel right. So I don't pull over. I'm still driving. About 30 seconds later, the car rams into the back of me. Boom. Tell them what kind of car you were driving to, by the way. I don't need to tell them what kind of car it was. Okay, I will, but keep going. At this point, I'm 96% sure that

it's not a cop, but I'm still not 100% sure because you watch these movies and you see the police hit people in the back to pull them over and things like that. So I'm still not sure. So I pick up the speed a little bit. So now I go from like 60, 70. I'm doing like 100. They hit me again. Boom. I realize it's not a cop. Okay. I take off. When I take off, there's a toll.

I go through the toll. When I go through the toll, you got to slow down. There's a curve. There's cars going through the toll. So when I slow down, we go through the easy pass. They go through the easy pass behind me. So now they're side by side. And I look over and I can see it's not a cop.

I press the brakes hard. Now we're on the highway. Press the brakes hard. So now they press their brakes hard, but now they're in front of me. Dude hops out the car. I put the car in reverse. And now I'm backing down the highway, going the opposite way on the highway. So cars are coming at me doing high speeds, and I'm going the other way.

Dude hops out. Black mask. Black hoodie, long sleeves. It was a beautiful day that day. It was like 88 degrees. All black. Pistol in hand. Shooting at my car.

How many times did you shot the car? Three times. Okay. Three bullet holes in my car. Bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom, bom. So I'm driving. If you remember the Biggie Puff Daddy video,

where they're driving backwards. I'm driving backwards down the highway the Biggie Puff Daddy video, wait, they're driving backwards. I'm driving backwards down the highway as they're shooting at the car. Two shots hit the front of the car. One hits the tire. Thank God that the car that I was driving, the tires are very strong. So if a bullet actually goes in the tire, you have 50 miles to continue to drive. And what time of night was this? This was about, I would say, 3 in the morning.

And you was in? I was in New Jersey on my way to work. So I'm backing up about at least a mile on the highway. So if you can imagine, you're driving down the highway, and you see a car going the opposite way, jetting. Pull up on the highway, I take off. When I take off, you know, I'm in an area in Jersey where I know a lot

of people, so I call all the homies and they come and then I guess it was so many people there, the cops came. So when the cops pulled up, they seen the bullet holes in the car. So you called the homies before you called the police? Absolutely. Absolutely. Cops came, they see the bullet holes in the car and, you know,

I had to go and they wanted me to, they wanted to take the car, they wanted to, you know, make a statement. You did what you were supposed to do as a civilian. So I didn't. I had to get to work. So I drove the car back to the crib and then went to work. Okay. And then I came here, did the show that morning, no problems, and then after. Didn't say anything to us about it.

No, I didn't say anything at all. Then after, I went back and I handled everything. They did the ballistics and everything like that. And I didn't mention this story because I know that the guys had to get apprehended. But when the guys left me from trying to rob me, five minutes later, they robbed somebody else. Yep. Right on the highway. Pulled them over.

Police lighted them on. Pulled them over. Pulled them out the car. Carjacked them. So when it came to getting these guns off the street, that was a major thing to me because we all know Negroes ain't marksmen. Those dudes weren't marksmen. They could have shot me and shot that windshield. They could have killed me.

I got five kids in the family, and they could have killed me over what, a car? And it's not just Negroes, though, because I think about, you know, situations like Dylann Roof and Charles Isakielan when he ran up in that church and shot those nine innocent people. So the problem with that is it was, I feel that, that had a turning point in me where I said, we need to get these guns off the streets. And that's where your energy came from with the whole

stop and frisk thing. Absolutely. And anything that has to get these guns off the streets, whether it's a buyback program, whatever it is, we need to get the guns off the street

because the sad part about it is, you know, if somebody would have seen it, there's this no snitching rule where, nah, I'm not telling on somebody. So we're not getting these guns off the streets.

And the bad thing about it is when we found out the area, it was one of the worst areas in New Jersey, where in that area, in that little mile radius, they had one of the largest crime rates, the largest assaults, the most shootings, and a lot of violence. It was Newark. In that little bit of area. Yeah, it was Newark.

Right? And I ain't gonna say what area, but it was in that little bit of area. And that little, and the whole Newark ain't bad, but in that little bit of area, that's where crime is at one of the highest points in that area. So when I said stop and frisk, and I talk, and people are like, oh no, you know, stop and frisk violates. Yeah,

I've been stopped and frisked several times. I got shot at a couple times. But if I have to balance it out, I'd rather get stopped and frisked than shot at any day. That's just my opinion. Hold on, let me finish. Okay. And then when it comes to it, I think about, damn, if they would have stopped and frisked some of the individuals in that crime-ridden area where crime is so high and assault is so high, maybe they would have pulled some of them guns off the area and I wouldn't have been in that situation. That's possible.

Little seven-year-old girls that walked to class wouldn't have got shot going to school. Little grandmas going to church wouldn't have got shot. That's my opinion. Now, I don't think the stop and frisk worked well, but I think it's something that might be able to be altered and work in a way that can help the community. Because if we're not turning these people in

for being criminals, we have to do something. And that goes back to what Charlamagne was saying earlier about locally being involved, what goes on in politics. If you live in a certain neighborhood, you should care what goes on in your neighborhood. Because to me, I look at it like there's way more things that need to be done than stopping frisking a neighborhood. Absolutely, there's way more than need to be done.

Parents need to take more control of their kids. There need to be more after school programs. I know people say sometimes there are none. There are a lot of things that have been just completely gotten rid of. This is a lot of things that would need to be done. I mean, listen, you're right. If stopping frisks was a fair and balanced practice

that targeted everybody equally across the board, then I can understand the extra precautions being taken. But since it's a practice that targets blacks and Hispanics and gives police the right to lawfully profile us, I'm not with it. And we can't just go around taking away people's civil liberties because of situations like this. And they've also proven that it wasn't effective. And actually, I was reading an article in the New York Times yesterday

because they were talking about the debate and the whole stop-and-frisk situation, and they said that actually they had stopped doing stop-and-frisk. It went down 72%, and murders went down when stop and frisk went down. So it kind of didn't seem like it did anything. But they got a lot of guns off the street. And that was the main thing. You know, you're talking about getting a lot of guns off the street,

900 guns off the street a year, opposed to getting 200 guns off the street. That number, we got to stop. That's the other thing that was cutting you back. I don't know that 900 guns. I looked it up. The last year, I did my research because I was really into getting these guns off the street. I can cite all the references.

I don't think that's factual. But I think what you're trying to say is we need more police raids on gangs in areas that are ridden with crime. And I said that yesterday, clearly. We need the police to be harder on the actual criminals, but not be hard on people with black and brown skin. And that's not Stop and Frisk.

Yeah, Stop and Frisk is just hard on people with black and brown skin, period. That live in certain neighborhoods. And I honestly feel if it's a crime-ridden area, we need more police in those areas. We need more help in those areas because a lot of times that's where the people, that's where those criminals are coming from. Nobody said, oh, I'm targeting black. No, I'm targeting areas where it's crime ridden,

where the assaults are high, violence is high, and there's people dying. And I don't care if it's black, brown, Spanish, Asian, white. Crime is crime, and we need to stop it. But the other problem with Stop and Frisk is that a lot of people in those neighborhoods that were African American and Hispanic ended up getting arrested for things like

having some weed on them and that's a major inconvenience and people have weed on them in all kinds of neighborhoods. But it was those people that were black and Hispanic in those neighborhoods that were getting arrested for things that had nothing to do with guns. So yesterday Envy's energy was very beige it was very waffle colored. I

understood where it was coming from when he was saying it. That's an awful story of what happened. Yes, and you have to respect people's right to not want to be a victim. Absolutely. And like I said, I've been on both sides. I've been in stop and frisk before several times. I've been pulled over several times. You've shot at people before?

No. People have shot at me before. And you shot back? People have shot at me before. And I shot back. People have shot at me before. And I've been in situations, like last week, I almost died. And I have five kids and a wife. I have five kids and a wife, and I'm a civilian. And I'm in these areas.

I'm doing backpack giveaways in Newark. I'm in Queens and Southside talking about registering to vote. I'm in these areas. So I don't want to die in these areas. Do you feel as if you may need to turn down your flossing because you're in these areas with these high-priced cars and your jewelry? You could be inciting the wolves?

Nah. Huh? Nah, I work hard, and I work hard legally. I understand that. I bust my ass every day to get what I want, and I bust my ass every day to invest my money and to make sure my thing is right. If I want to buy a nice car, I'm gonna buy a nice car. That's my rights.

Because clearly these guys were trying to either rob you or kill you, one of the two. Yeah, maybe rob me, maybe kill me, maybe carjack me. But, I mean, the person that they carjacked right after me didn't have a luxury car. It was just, they just wanted a car and wanted to make money. But I bust my ass every day. I outwork half these people in this industry, and I continue to work.

So if I want to buy something nice for myself, my family, or my wife, I'm going to do it. And you shouldn't be a target because of that, right? Absolutely. Exactly. That's why you can't have Stop and Frisk because you don't want to take away people's civil liberties. You can't be a target just because you have black and brown skin. Well, it has nothing to do with black and brown skin. It has to do with crime.

Stop and Frisk does. I said that, but I said it has to be altered and it has to be crime-ridden areas. And it doesn't matter if you're black, brown, white, Asian, what you are. But we're going to take some phone calls right now. 800-585-1051. What are we talking to these people about? I'd like to know if people's opinions have changed

about your stance after hearing why you feel the way that you feel. Because that's what I wish you would have said yesterday as I was sitting back listening. I had to make sure that the guys were apprehended before I talked about the story. More things are more important. You know, more important as far as safety is my concern. And I know you were confused because one of the guys was Spanish, one of them was black, and those are both your people.

You both have Spanish and black. You're saying too much on air right now. I'm a civilian. I don't care. You're saying too much on air right now. And that's the reason why I don't tell you. I'm cutting your mic off right now. 800-585-1051 is the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. That was Beyoncé with Sorry. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, this is where we usually do the rumors, Yee. Right, but instead, we gotta talk about this whole stop and fist situation because I know

it got out of control yesterday. There was a lot of things happening on social media. I saw a lot of articles about you, DJ Envy, and you told us something that we didn't know. Can I just tell everybody that I'm African-American? You're not African-American. I'm African-American. I've seen I was Puerto Rican. I've seen I was Mexican.

I've seen I was Colombian yesterday. I've seen I'm Puerto Rican. You're definitely beige, and your beige rage was coming out yesterday. You had every light skin of emotion absolutely possible on display yesterday. But there was a reason for that. And the reason was you got shot at. I almost died. Last week.

They tried to take my life away. They shot at you four times in your vehicle. Three times in the vehicle. One hit the ground. And it's like the second time this happened to you in New York that I know of. Yeah, the other time when somebody tried to rob me, I actually chased him and caught him. Got you. I actually chased him. He was shooting Got you. I actually chased him.

He was shooting at me. And in retrospect, I don't know. I chased him down. It was stupid. I shouldn't have chased him down. I don't know if that's a great idea. But I did catch him.

So you're tired of being a victim? I did catch him. And, you know, he was arrested. And another reason I didn't want to talk about it on there is because I know my kids listen and I didn't want my kids to hear the story

and they get nervous every time their dad goes out. That was another reason I didn't really want to discuss it on there. Let's go to the phone lines. A lot of people want to talk to me. 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? I think stop and frisk. They should do it in every hood.

You can't just do it in our hoods. I agree. Do it in every hood. Not just high crime areas. He's saying everywhere. Every neighborhood. Not even the hood, just neighborhoods. That's why I said if it was a fair and balanced practice that targeted everybody equally, I wouldn't have a problem. Because we already have a lot of suffering going on

in certain neighborhoods. Why make people suffer more? And some people might get traumatized by that. You remember when airport security got real, real strict and they was making everybody take their shoes off? If Stop and Frisk was like that where everybody had to go through that, I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Or when they would randomly check your bags in the train stations and it was anybody. But I'm not mad at that. I just want to get the weapons and the illegal guns off the streets because they are hurting not just celebrities. They're hurting little kids, man. Little kids getting shot trying to go to school. Yeah.

We all want that, but Stop and frisk just targets blacks and Hispanics. I don't want kids to have terrible experiences with the police officers so that they grow up hating cops. And like I said yesterday, it has to be altered.

I didn't say it was right. I just said it has to be altered. Hello, who's this? Maya. Hey, Maya. Good morning. Good morning. I totally agree

with what you were saying. And I just think there has to be an alternative to how they do it, how they go about it. You can't just pull over anyone, you know, without any type of probable cause or, you know, anybody that doesn't look suspicious. And police can already pull you over for probable cause.

I just think we don't need stop and frisk. Maybe something else. Something else. But not stop and frisk. Yeah, well, something has to be done. That's just my opinion. When they discriminate, when they see, like, tinted windows or, like, a black person inside the vehicle, they automatically assume, you know what I mean? And even when they were stopping frisking white neighborhoods that was 74% white,

they were still stopping all black people. So it's not really fair. That's very, very true. That's very, very true. And I live in Massachusetts. I live in like the South Shore area. So it happens not as frequently as in the black neighborhoods, but it happens. And I see it all the time.

I normally get pulled over. I do. And as a black female, I feel like, you know what, they do discriminate. And they do tend to pull over black people more than white people. And it makes you feel like, I don't want to call the cops when I have a problem because now you don't like them because they've inconvenienced you. And you have a hostile attitude. I keep saying it over and over.

If stop and frisk was a fair and balanced practice that targeted everybody equally across the board, then I could understand the extra precautions being taken. But since it's a practice that targets blacks and Hispanics and gives the police the right to lawfully profile us, I'm just not with it. I say do it across the board, and especially in areas where you can't carry a gun.

Like in New York and New Jersey, they don't want you to protect yourself. You can't carry a weapon, because if you do carry a weapon and you get caught, if I would have had a gun. Like in New York and New Jersey, you can't. They don't want you to protect yourself. You can't carry a weapon because if you do carry a weapon and you get caught, if I would have had a gun with me that night and I would have shot him, I would have been in the right for defending myself. But I would have went to jail for having a gun. Which is

a double-edged sword. I just don't want police to be able to break the law to enforce the law. And taking away people's civil liberties is unconstitutional, so that's breaking the law. So I don't want Stopping Frisk. And I don't even, I don't think Stopping Frisk will slow down violence. But

I understand that, you know, if you've been in a situation like Envy was just in last Thursday, you just want something to be done. We gotta get these guns off the streets. Alright, well, we got the donkey of the day on the way, man. Yes, I wanted it to be you, but you know, I respect your right. Everybody else. I respect your right to not want to be a victim. Thank you very much. Okay. All right. All right. Donkey, the day is on the way. Who

are you giving it to? You ain't teasing me. I don't know yet. I was so set on doing it to you, but then you decided to come in here and tell us this damn sob story that we knew about last since last Thursday. And you know why I didn't want to tell you? Because when I told you at the I Heart Radio Music Festival, what was the first thing you said? I said, well, Nick, maybe you need to start driving a Yukon like your boy and stop riding around in half a million dollar cars. Okay, that's what I said.

That's stunting on everybody. I said, the streets is hungry and you look like food. Exactly. I ain't talking about inspiration. My kids can't eat your inspiration in me. All right? Inspiration. And that's why I didn't tell you.

Okay. Goodness gracious. All right, don't get your days up. All right? Inspiration. And that's why I didn't tell you. Okay. Goodness gracious. All right, Donkey of the Day is up next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day, ask Charlamagne. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed up.

So like a donkey. Keyhole. Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but donkey of the day is a new one. Yes, donkey of the day for Wednesday, September 28th goes to Andrew Fox. Now, Andrew Fox is a 29-year-old man who decided that yesterday he wanted to propose to his girlfriend at the Yankees game. That's sweet.

I was at that game, too. You were at the game? Mm-hmm. Oh, I saw the picture of you and your family. Did they stop and frisk you and your family before y'all walked in? Yes, they actually stopped everybody. See, there you go. Everyone.

Okay, good. Drop on the clues bombs for Yankee Stadium being fair and balanced with their stop and frisk policy. Even the Bays get stopped and frisked. Now, Andrew decided he wanted to propose to his queen, so they put him up on the Jumbotron screen, and he was all set to propose to his 29-year-old girlfriend, Heather. Well, Andrew reached in his pocket to pull out the ring,

and this happened. You see, up to he fumbles right away. I mean, he's nervous. This is like one of the big moments of his life, and now he can't find the ring. The box is empty. Oh, that poor guy.

No, no, no. Maybe somehow he can come up with a save. Oh, look at this poor guy. Maybe he can come up with a save somehow. You get it? So he reaches in his pocket to pull out the engagement ring, and he fumbles it. The ring falls out.

You know, Andrew, I think you staged this. I believe that Andrew acted like he lost that ring because he wanted to ensure that Heather would say yes and not embarrass him in front of that Yankees crowd. You weren't confident she would say yes if you popped the question straight up. So you pulled that empty box

out and acted like you lost that ring because you knew she would at least give you a sympathy yes in front of those people and tell you no in private now if i'm wrong congratulations but sir if your plan is to propose to your woman had a yankees game the number one thing you should do in that situation is what secure the ring okay andrew you got one job in that situation. He was nervous. And you need to thank God, Jesus, Derek, Gina, Babe, Ruf, and whoever was with you in spirit at Yankee Stadium,

and you better be happy that Yankee Stadium is a forgiving place because this is how it ended. Wait a minute. They're smiling. They found it. Oh, that's great. He's on one knee. That is awesome.

Oh, she better say yeah now. Oh, that poor guy. Congratulations. Yeah, you want me to believe that in the Bronx, okay, with all those people in that arena, that stadium, you just dropped a gold ring with diamonds and then just found it. Huh? Do you know the scumbags that are in the Bronx?

Hey. Hey. Congratulations, Andrew, you sneaky ass, conniving ass, manipulating people's emotions to get the answer you want for your proposal ass. Your plan worked. But you're still getting the smooth sounds of the Hamiltons. You are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.

Yeehaw. Now, the funny thing about it is when he found the ring, the crowd started cheering crazy. Yeah, it was going. But people that were playing, they were playing baseball, they didn't throw a pitch, so the players were trying to figure out why everybody was cheering. But everybody started cheering crazy.

They started kissing each other. It was dope last night. It made it actually very memorable. Absolutely, yeah. It was memorable. But his face, when he lost the ring, his face looked like. He's a great actor. Yeah.

He's a great actor. Yeah. He's a great actor. I don't think so. If you just drop some jewelry in New York and thousands of people and you just randomly find it, New York's getting soft, bro. Just want to put that. If you found the ring, you would give it up? Yeah. But Boston was there, too, though.

There was a lot of Boston fans there, too. Might have been more Boston fans than Yankee fans there yesterday. It must have been somebody from Boston that returned the ring. Found the ring. Congratulations, Andy. Come on, we've all dropped something, though. You never dropped your keys in the grading and been like, oh, man, what can I do? We've all dropped something.

All right. All right, well, thank you for that donkey today. When we come back, Andre Harrell will be joining us. Now, usually we do Ask Ye Here. Right. But the show's kind of been all over the place. When the hell was Andre here? You were in L.A. You were in L.A. yesterday. Oh's kind of been all over the place. When the hell was Andre here? You were in L.A.

You were in L.A. yesterday. Oh, okay. You all right, man? You know you just got back today, right? I did. You're right. We'll get Andre here when we come back. He's the vice chairman of the Revolt Music, and of course we're going to be talking about the Revolt Music Conference that goes down October 13th through the 16th. So keep it locked

if you're a rapper, producer, an artist, you want to get in the industry, or you just want information about the industry, he's the person to talk to when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Hypnotize, Notorious B.I.G. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. We have a special guest in the building. He has so many hats, so many different jobs. Right now, he's currently the vice chairman of Sean Combs Enterprise and Revolt TV Andre Harrell in the building Good morning, sir, welcome back He always comes right before Revolt Music Conference

The rest of the year we're like, come see us I would come see y'all anytime Y'all want to talk about anything We can go champagne and bubbles here Let's talk about what you're doing this year I saw that some artists will have an opportunity to sit down in front of you Yes, we have this program called Be Heard where people can mail in their tapes and then we'll have a showcase 12 o'clock to 5 o'clock

and we'll have Sean Garrett, we'll have Dre and Kool, and we'll have myself. And we'll go through it until we get to the top ten and the number one choice will get to perform on Revolt TV on Showcross Sessions. And the reason we came up with this is because a lot of times at the panels, when people step up and the moderator says, well, what question would you like to ask? The person will say, I'd just like to spit 16 and just go spit 16. So we want to take that out of it and give it the proper place so people can come and try to get a record deal if that's what they came to do. And then

when we're at the other panel, people can ask questions. Now, from the Revolt Music Conference, has there been anybody that has actually did their thing, you know, blew up, you know, exploded from the Revolt Music Conference? I'm sitting here with a face like, that didn't happen? Bryson Tiller. Bryson Tiller was discovered at RMC by somebody who worked at RMC. Oh, believe me, I know. Shout out to Neil.

Big shout out to Neil. Neil grabbed him. You know, Neil was my intern. Was he your intern? He was my intern. He's good. He grabbed him and brought him to me, and I wouldn't listen. He did?

Yeah. He brought him to me, too. I didn't listen. Oh, man, what's wrong with the music industry? You didn't listen either? I listened to it. I listened to it. But I didn't get it as intense as he got it.

Right. Like, sometimes when you're trying to get people caught up to where you are, you got to get them in the car, don't push it on them. Absolutely. Let them hear for a while and let them say, what was that again? Yes. But when you come and say, this is Jodeci. Whoa.

You're like. That's big shoes to fill. That's a lot. Like, on your first listen, you're like, Jodeci? But I guess somebody has to be really passionate about it if they want you to listen, because you can't just be like, listen, just check this out in your spare time, because you probably won't listen to that either then. No, I would listen to Neil, because

Neil worked with me. Right. He worked with Envy too, and Envy didn't listen to him. They know what it was. He was like, I need you to play this on the radio. This is odd. I was like, I can't just play something on the radio just because you're my guy. Right. He went hard on it. But you know what? Shout out to Neil, because he was right. He was right. That boy is cultural. Yeah, he was absolutely right But you know what? Shout out to Neil because he was right. He was right. That boy is cultural.

Yeah, he was absolutely right. All right. Now, I had this little game that I wanted to play with you this morning, Mr. Andre Harrell. Yes, ma'am. So, I'm going to give you two artists, right? Mm-hmm. And you have to say which one would you sign and which one would you not sign. So, out of these two, you got to pick which one would you sign.

Oh. All right. Future or Gucci Mane? You can only pick one. Ooh, that's a tough one. Gucci. Why Gucci? They're authentic.

They're original. He also has a lot of other artists, I guess, that he has put on as well. He has a good ear. All right. Kendrick Lamar or Drake? Ooh, these are tough ones. Drake.

That's right, baby. Who makes the success? I just like the songs Okay But Kendrick got the street And he has the songs as well They're kind of I ain't gonna say similar But they both have

A fan base that is amazing Core fan base That will follow them Stands crazy Kendrick is more The poet to me Absolutely Sometimes I listen to Kendrick

And I get like choked up About like If something's happening In the news And then I listen to some Kendrick and you're like, damn, that's powerful. Drake is more like a party guy. He's singing broken heart songs but he's singing it to a two-step beat.

Absolutely. Alright, Babyface or Keith Sweat? Babyface. Easy one. 141 top 10 hits. Janet Jackson or Jennifer Lopez? Janet Jackson. Alright, I'm glad these are coming easy. Bell Biv DeVoe or Boyz II Men?

Bell Biv DeVoe. He's the party guy right here. Boyz II Men had a lot of hits. If she would have said New Edition and Boyz II Men, that's different. So you'd still pick Boyz II Men. End of the road? I would pick B.B. He picked Bell Biv DeVoe. Because of their attitude.

They have more edge. I always like groups with attitude. Okay. Rick Ross or 50 Cent? 50 Cent. They have more edge. I always like groups with attitude. Okay. Rick Ross or 50 Cent? 50 Cent. Up in the club. Paul, you're not going to be working for Puff any longer now. That's it.

It's a wrap. You didn't say I'm the conspicuous of Puff. No, no. DMX or Ja Rule? DMX. Said that one fast. You're authentic. All right.

The Game or Meek Mill? I caught you threw that one in there. How far? The game. Really? Why the game over Meek Mill? I know the game. He cool.

And the last one I have for you is Jagged Edge or Drew Hill? Jagged Edge. All right. We just won't get married. Just that one song alone. That just held off. All right. Now, let's talk about this being the third annual Revolt Music Conference.

What did you find worked like the last two years? And what did you find didn't work? So how this one is going to be a little bit different. How is it? Okay. The one thing I noticed about the Revolt Music Conference is people go in these panels and they want more time to ask questions. So if they have a panel, it's an hour.

So 45 minutes will be spent with the panelists talking about stuff. And then 15 minutes for questions. People really want to ask questions for an hour and 15 minutes. Absolutely. So what we decided to do is to add a breakout panel, which is a smaller panel, about the same subject where people can go in. If there's 30 really interested people that want to sit down and talk about it some more and get more insight, they can.

And that's the big difference, a little more touchy-feely so you can really get what you came to get out of it. Right. All right, we got more with Andre Harrell when we come back. We're talking the Revolt Music Conference and more. You're an artist, an unsigned artist trying to get on, a producer, a blogger, a podcaster, whatever it may be. We got information for you when we come back at the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. That was Tory Lanez with Love. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We have Andre Harrell, the chairman of Sean Combs Enterprises. Yes. He's with us this morning.

Asher was up here recently, and he was talking about a lot of artists don't have shows the way they used to. Andre Harrell, the chairman of Sean Combs Enterprises. Yes. He's with us this morning. Usher was up here recently, and he was talking about a lot of artists don't have shows the way they used to. Like, their stage shows just kind of suffer. They're lacking. What do you think? Who impresses you now? Miguel impresses me. Overall, great artist.

I remember when he did the Grammys two years ago, and he absolutely destroyed it. Who else really gives a good show that's part of the new vanguard of talent? He's the one that stands out in my mind. Who stands out in your mind?

Besides Usher and Miguel, I can't really think of anybody. I mean, that's new. That's new. That's new? Nah, I can't remember. Because I always think Chris Brown always is a great show, but he's not new. Chris Brown is not new. Yeah, he's not new. He's just young. Yeah. And he's dope. He's definitely dope. Dancing, Yeah, he's not new. He's just young. Yeah. And he's dope. He's definitely dope.

Dancing, entertaining, putting on a show. I'll tell you, the baddest boy out performing is Bruno Mars. Oh, Bruno Mars is excellent. I remember I went to his first New York show, and I was so impressed. I was there, too. Yeah, I was there. He was dope right then and there. He was incredible, because he has the whole band.

It's him and the whole band, the way they perform together. And you can tell that he used to sing all the time, like at bars and weddings. Also, when we get out there, what are some of the other panels and the direction of music? Because I realize now, this wasn't as big last year, but it's blown up a lot since then. Podcasts.

Yeah, podcasts. A lot of people are asking about podcasts. We have a panel on podcasts, and we call that the new hustle because it seems like a lot of people who are in their second part of their career are starting to expound on their knowledge on podcasts. So we have a panel on that. We have a panel on streaming and terrestrial radio. Right.

We got a panel on music marketing. We got women in social media panel, the lost art of A&R and artist development with Daryl Jones. That's an important one. I want to ask you about that when you finish, too, because there's of A&R and Artist Development with Daryl Jones. That's an important one. I want to ask you about that when you finish too because there's no A&Rs anymore. Well, there's nobody training these artists. There's nobody helping these artists and developing these artists. Well, it feels like

they want people, artists to come already ready. Like already have a following, already know how to perform, already have, it feels like labels are signing artists that already have a buzz. How could they know? I think most of the things you said were right except ready to perform. I think because they have

a record, because they have a social media following, because maybe their book is shows, people are trying to sign those artists because there's not the same level of profit that there was in just straight up selling records. So there's less time that they could spend in incubation

trying to develop these artists. And I do think records suffer, and artists suffer because of that. Absolutely. Because they get a hit record, and they're learning how to perform on your dime. When I say on your dime, on the consumer's dime, who goes to see a great show. And I don't see how that's going to change

unless there's outside artist development companies that record companies start to hire. Right. Now, that should be a ring for somebody somebody should be saying that's a new job right there now you're right but you know like you said you know with your label you help guide those careers you help make those artists tell them how to sing how to do a hook how to perform when to take off their shirt when to not take off their shirt which helped in their career and most of the artists that you signed are still actively performing. But nowadays, a lot of these guys are one-hit wonders

because they don't have any of that. They got lucky with a record, and that's all they have. Hustling instead of artistry. If I could just get a hit, if I could just get my social media name out there, I could eat for 10 years with one hit or something. But not necessarily be great, not necessarily build a career,

not necessarily become a superstar. Because the one thing that you see consistent from the stars who exist now, they never stop. Jay-Z never stopped. Kanye never stops. Puff Daddy, he just never stops. They all keep going. So it's part

of the journey. Like a lot of people are doing it as trying to get the road to meet at some end, but it's really the ones who enjoy the journey, the process of creating something new, going to the studio and making a record and making something that they're giving the

universe a gift. And then practicing the fine art of communicating the song and the emotion of the song on stage. And all of that is an art form, and the more you do it, the better you get at it. We're all excited about the Revolt Music Conference. Oh, yeah, you know, every year we're always out there. We're giving the Revolt Jimmy Iovine Icon Award to Naz Escobar.

He'll be the first artist. And I just want to say, last time I remember you guys had that dinner, and Jimmy Iovine spoke at it, and he talked about, you know, starting Beats by Dre with Dr. Dre and all of that. It was a very inspirational conversation, so I did learn a lot myself. And last year we gave it to L.A. Reid, and Nas will be the first artist that gets it. So we're excited about it. Nas is doing a lot, because he just did the Get Down.

He did the Get Down. He executive produced the Get Down. He did the Get Down. He's a music... He executive produced The Land. He did this fashion thing on CNN. He has a fund, the Queensbridge

Venture Partnerships. And they do like technology. Yeah. They do technology in other businesses like Mass Appeal. Y'all got to pay attention to Nas.

Oh, he's quiet. No, I'm glad that you guys are honoring him. So I'll make sure I read that. He's a great guy. Yes, he is. All right. Well, Revolt Music Conference goes down the 13th through the 16th in October.

Get your tickets. If you want to know how, hit up the website. It's revolt.tv. All right, well, get your tickets, and we'll see you down there. It's The Breakfast Club. It's Andre Harrell. Yeah, baby. Listen up.

Again. New edition. New edition. Can't be done. I'm a one-dickle-sack. Say it. New edition. Again. New edition. Bottom line is Bobby Brown is bad for business. Guys like Bobby are going to ruin everything for you and for your family. Now, you guys need to take a vote. Mr. Michael Bivins, welcome to the music business. The only way everybody loves them. Tell me who you are.

Mr. Michael Bivens, welcome to the music business. First of all, drop on the Clues Bomb for the greatest R&B group of all time. I'm excited, too, for this one. I'm going to be sitting there for those four days watching that with a hurt heart because, as y'all know, I've always wanted to play Michael Bivens in a new edition. You aged out. I've been saying, I did age out of the role, but let the record show, even Michael Bivens knows

I've been saying that for the past 10 years. You can't dance. I could have learned for this role. You can't sing. Okay, I could have learned for this role. You can't act. I can act a little bit. A little bit. A little bit. A little bit. Alright, well that is going to be coming out. It looks like it's going to be really good. A six hour, three night event on

BET. The last time black people had a miniseries was Roots, right? What's the doubt? Come on now. I can't think of the last black miniseries other than Roots. O.J. Simpson's story. That don't count. Why not? He was trans black.

Trans black. All right. Let's talk about what else is going on. Listen, this game of Meek Mill Beef is trickling down to everybody. Beanie Siegel's involved now. Somehow, Drag-On is involved. Now, this game of Meek Mill Beef is trickling down to everybody. Beanie Siegel's involved now. Somehow Drag-On is involved. Now Maino's involved. Drag-On involved himself. I know. Well, he did mention his

name in the song. He did. Now, how did Maino get involved? Alright, well, I guess Maino had an issue with Brooklyn people being in a pest control video. And so Wack sends out a message to Maino. And that's our guy, Maino Maino and he said when they figure out you're playing both sides my N-word

you're going to be in IT remember it wasn't just me on the phone it was me, you, another N-word and a recording I hope you're not running around playing like you was I guess in it but he put it like hashtag it alright I say this with no disrespect all gangsta-ish me and you

going to run that fade as soon as I touch back. We know and I'm letting your man know. And he also said that N-word that gave you that buck 50 still running around Brooklyn. This we all know. Whack, I know one thing, man. Whack's my guy and Whack's been offering a lot of fades and people haven't been accepting.

But if there's one person that is going to accept that fade, it's definitely Mano. It'll give you all you want. It is light-skinned Jermaine. Well, Mano did respond. He put some laughing emojis. Then he said, First off, I never spoke down on you to nobody.

My perspective is the same as it always been. Same as I told you. I felt that Embers in my own borough was acting like hoes to be in a video about a beef they had nothing to do with them or Brooklyn. I told you that as I told some of the same people that was in the video the same thing. Never ever changed my tone. I was clear. And if anybody else told you something different, it's a flat-out lie.

Why y'all bothering Maino, man? Maino out here minding his damn business. Why y'all trying to make Maino be the old Maino he used to be? I don't know. Let that man live and continue to live his life the way that he is. He also wanted to make it clear, though, the homie that cut me is not walking around Brooklyn, and nor has he ever been.

I've been in New York since 2006. First time I met Maino was at a party where he smacked somebody. Then a couple weeks later, he was beating up somebody. Then a couple weeks later after that, he was beating up somebody. He's calmed down a lot. Yeah, he's calmed down a lot, but it's safe to say

Maino is not going back down from a fate. No, he's not. Well, I hope that nothing really at all happens. Maino's not going back down from a fate. No, he's not. Okay. Well, I hope that nothing really at all happens, you know. Maino's my guy, so. Yeah, salute to Maino. Maino, give him the action. I hate to see him dragged into this. There's so many beefs.

So many layers to this thing. It's just ridiculous at this point. So many spinoff beefs. Let's let Game and Meek fight if they're going to fight, even though nobody wants violence, but let them shoot it the fair way and keep it moving. Paul Beeney done got punched upside his head because of this. Oh, and they said that Beanie got punched

when he got allegedly knocked out. And they said he got up and then performed on stage. I told you, he did it before he performed. I said that. Maybe no way, but yeah, it was before. It was before he performed. If you can get up to perform, you can get up to fight. I need to know why he didn't get up to fight.

He's getting that money now. I'm here backstage about to perform. You know what? I don't even care. I don't want to talk about none of this Negro nonsense. I'm going to be on Bill Simmons. All right, let's talk about something good. I'm going to be on Bill Simmons tonight on HBO, okay? This is what my life is about.

There you go. And Angelina is going to be on Empire. There you go. This is what life is about. I don't know what everybody else is doing. It's going to be a good night. All right, guess who is the number one earning comedian right now? I can guess this one easily.

Easily. Okay, usually it's Jerry Seinfeld. Okay. By the way, Jerry Seinfeld did make $43.5 million in his past year. All right. The new number one. Who? Say it. Kev.

Kevin Hart. Drop one of Kool-Aid bombs for Kevin Hart. Damn it. There you go. He made $87.5 million. Did he ever send those sneakers he said he was going to send us? No. He absolutely didn't, but Kev will be up here next week or so. Right. Because he's send those sneakers he said he was going to send us? No.

He absolutely didn't. But Kev will be up here next week or so. Right. Because he's got his stand-up special coming out. What now? He said you should buy them and support because he's an athlete. Nope. Kevin, you're past the stage of support anymore.

There you go. We've supported you enough to get you to this point. Now you're the richest comedian in the world. Now we will accept the complimentary sneakers, sir. But Dave Chappelle is on the list, too, by the way. He's at number six. He made $13 million. Drop one of Kool's boss at Dave Chappelle. I respect Dave Chappelle.

But you know what? The respect level is different when you actually watch somebody grow the way Kevin Hart grew. Six years ago, we were watching him at Caroline's Comedy Club here in New York City, selling out a weekend, and now he's the biggest star in the world. Over Seinfeld. Over Seinfeld, absolutely. All right, and speaking of growing, Rob Kardashian, they're saying, has given up on life again, and he has gained all his weight back.

That's a great segue, right? Apparently, he gained back the 50 pounds that he lost, and they're saying that he has lost his motivation. Because of the weight gain, he has renewed fears for his family that his diabetes will spin out of control because he does have diabetes. And they're saying that he also hasn't been filming with Blac Chyna for the show they have together.

She's eight months pregnant. They argue all the time. And I will say I did watch a little bit of the show yesterday. They do argue a lot. And Rob is always saying sorry. All I know is. So now would be a good time, though, because she did help him out so much to pull him back in.

And just, you know, he's been going through a lot. You can tell he's been suffering from depression, dealing with a lot of things with his family. He's slipping back into a dark place. A fat place. If Governor Chris Christie ever gets a biopic, Rob Kardashian is a shoo-in to play him. Listen, clearly he has a lot going on in his life. And, you know, a lot of pain that we probably can't even imagine.

I don't know what he's going through. I just hope Rob Kardashian doesn't have a heart attack and dies before he gets to play Governor Chris Christie in a biopic. Stop it.

Okay, stop it. And that is your Rumor Report. I'm Angela Yee. Rob Kardashian and Governor Chris Christie are the same exact individual.

Okay? Put a side-by-side of them up and tell me they can't be brothers. Or at least fat cousins. All right. On? Put a side-by-side of them up and tell me they can't be brothers. Or at least fat cousins. On their mama's side. Thank you for those rumors, G.

That whole side of the family is fat. When we come back, we got the People's Choice Mix. Nobody want them over at Thanksgiving. Stop at 805-85-1051 and shout out to Revolt.
