Charlamagne will be here in a second. And it's Friday. Yes, it is. Friday is here and I'm tired as a mother effer. Oh, are ya? Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:11 How tired are they? Tired. I had sex last night at 1.30 in the morning. So you are a mother effer. Yeah, well, shut up. But yes, but I did have sex at late last night. My wife got home. She had to get her hair done and nails done.
Starting point is 00:03:23 I think this is TMI. And when she got home, I just wanted something. And I was too done. I think this is TMI. And when she got home, I just wanted something. And I was too late. I knew I shouldn't have did it because I was like, I'm going to be tired in the morning because you just can't give
Starting point is 00:03:30 no halfway tired penis. So you got to give it like the full. And I went fully in and now I'm tired. This is a terrible way for me to have to start my Friday. Hey, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:03:40 I was just telling everybody I had sex last night at 1.30 in the morning and I'm tired now, man. You ain't got no legs because you're over 40. Yes, I am. I know how that goes. I ain't got no legs.
Starting point is 00:03:50 I ain't got no legs. I went to the mall yesterday. Yeah, you was shopping. I'm tired. You were tired walking around. I was doing some retail therapy. The retail therapy? Oh, never mind.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I forgot we was a nationally syndicated radio show. I was about to tell New York City that Henry Hudson is all messed up. So salute to everybody in Houston. You don't know what the Henry Hutchins Parkway is. But somebody out there would probably know. You know, Friday is a bad traffic day because I had a hard time driving. I don't know what was going on, but I don't know why Friday is the worst out of every day of the week. Well, usually people try to cut out a little early or get to work early so they can leave early.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Yeah, hell yeah. They get to work early so they can leave early and have like a longer weekend it feels like. So a lot of people do that on Friday, especially in the summertime. It feels like there are a lot of trucks out this morning though. And that always backs me up. I started to jack my wife's pregnancy pillow. She got this bomb ass pregnancy pillow
Starting point is 00:04:32 that's like a full body pillow. And it was just laying on the bed looking mad comfortable. So I laid on it for a split second. I gotta give you one of these, my damn self. You wanna be a little pregnant woman, don't you?
Starting point is 00:04:42 You wanna be a little pregnant woman. Drop one of Clues bombs for pregnancy pillows, damn it. You wanna be a little pregnant woman. Drop one of Clues Bomb for pregnancy pillows, damn it. You want to be a little pregnant woman. Pregnancy pillows are comfortable as hell. If your wife got a
Starting point is 00:04:49 pregnancy pillow, my brothers just lay on it for one second. That one second going to turn into 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and she might walk in the room and say,
Starting point is 00:04:55 if you don't get your ass off my pregnancy pillow. You want to try the pills next? You want to try the pregnancy pills next? Is that what you want
Starting point is 00:05:00 What's a pregnancy pill? I ain't got no morning sickness. They have pills for being pregnant? Yes. Yeah, when you got morning sickness and
Starting point is 00:05:04 stuff like that. You know, I've never been pregnant, so. Well. I don't got no morning sickness. You got pills for being pregnant? Yeah, when you got morning sickness and stuff like that. Oh, I didn't know. You know, I've never been pregnant, so. Well. I don't know what that's like. Tell your boyfriend to take the condom off. No. She said no.
Starting point is 00:05:14 All right, well, let's get the show cracking. G Herbo will be joining us this morning. He just had a baby. He did, that's right. He's from the Chi-town, Chicago. They love him underground. The kids love G Herbo. So we'll talk to G Herbo. I actually seen him at Trade Day last weekend out in Houston and
Starting point is 00:05:27 he killed it. So we'll kick it with him. And we got some front page news. G, what we talking about? Yes, we are going to talk about Papa John suing Papa John's. What? Papa John's a real person? Yeah, he's a real person. He's suing his own, he's suing himself. John Schnatter is his name. But we'll find out all about that
Starting point is 00:05:43 and more. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Yeah. I said I like it. Mama Barty. All right. She's taking some time off. She's not going on Bruno Mars tour.
Starting point is 00:05:54 We'll talk about that in the rumors. We haven't done it in rumors. Okay. Thank you. I thought you wanted to be a bad chick so bad. That was a quick mention. Damn. She's not going on Bruno Mars.
Starting point is 00:06:03 She's going to stay home with the baby. How about that? All right. Let's get some front page news. She's not going on tour with Bruno Mars. She's going to stay home with the baby. How about that? All right, let's get some front page news. That's where y'all breaking
Starting point is 00:06:08 news. We ain't breaking no news. That's a knee job. He just broke the
Starting point is 00:06:12 news. He's breaking news. Let's talk about Papa John suing Papa John. John Schnatter,
Starting point is 00:06:16 who is the founder of Pizza Chain Papa John's, is now suing Papa John's pizza. Isn't he
Starting point is 00:06:20 suing himself then? Well, he actually stepped down. He stepped away from the company and that's all because he admitted using the N-word on a conference call with the marketing firm.
Starting point is 00:06:29 But he said the firm asked if he was racist, and he used the N-word in describing how Colonel Sanders from KFC used to talk. So he said he told the firm he himself wouldn't ever use that word. The company asked him to resign as chairman of the board. He did. And he does remain on the board as a director. He owns 29% of Papa John's stock. But he said he does regret stepping away from the company. And he said the board didn't do any investigation
Starting point is 00:06:52 and said his decision to remove him as chairman was based on rumor and innuendo. Oh, number one, Papa John's pizza been trash. And number two, he got me thinking, how old is he that he knew Colonel Sanders? Because in my mind, Colonel Sanders is old as hell. Well, he probably knows the history of KFC. Oh, got you. I don't think he knows the actual Colonel Sanders? Because in my mind, Colonel Sanders is old as hell. Well, he probably knows the history of KFC. Oh, got you. I don't think he knows the actual
Starting point is 00:07:07 Colonel Sanders. What else we got, Yee? Alright, now let's talk about the Georgia cops. Remember the ones who arrested a woman after using the coin flip app to decide whether or not to let her go or arrest her? Here's a little refresher of what happened. A head, R tail. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Okay. This is tail, right? Yeah, so really. 23. Michael Jordan? So got two faster, let me write this down. Two faster conditions. Is it reckless?
Starting point is 00:07:39 Yeah, you can do reckless and then speeding. So Courtney Brown and Christy Wilson were involved in that traffic stop and they have been fired. They said state officers should serve the public in a kind, considerate, and patient manner and should refrain from conduct that destroys public respect for the officer or the department.
Starting point is 00:07:55 I just like the fact that when they saw the number 23, they thought of Michael Jordan. Drop one of the clues, bombs for MJ, damn it. It's crazy that officers can kill unarmed people and still have their job, but you can get fired for using the coin flip app. Listen, I'm all for them getting fired for any injustice that they commit. That's an injustice, too.
Starting point is 00:08:11 So if they got fired for that, I'll take that. Right, but I'm saying, what about all these other officers that still have their jobs? Hey, man, we got to get the wins where we can. All right. That's it? I mean, do you have time for more? Yeah, we got one more. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:22 President Trump's former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, said he's willing to testify that Trump was aware of that infamous June 26th meeting with Russian operatives, the one that he said he didn't have any idea about, didn't know anything about the meeting. He said no one told him about it. Now, the source says that Cohen says Trump knew and approved of the meeting where the Russians offered, quote, dirt on then-candidate Hillary Clinton before the election. Oh, this movie's getting good.
Starting point is 00:08:47 If movies are the way I think that they are, somebody's about to disappear. Somebody's out of here. Somebody's about to vanish. Now, Donald Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, said that Cohen was not credible. They said he's been lying for years. I expected something like this from him. I don't know. Thanos is going to snap his finger.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Michael Cohen might disappear. He might just fade away. Now that is your front page news. Alright, now get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.

I know we got into it this morning already, but what's going on with her tour with Bruno Mars? All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. E.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Shlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. What's happening? Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Cardi B. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:17:56 This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Cardi B posted, as of today, I've decided I won't be joining Bruno on tour this fall. I thought that after giving birth to my daughter that six weeks would be enough time for me to recover mentally and physically. I also thought that I'd be able to bring her with me on tour, but I think I underestimated this whole mommy thing.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Not only am I just not ready physically, I'm not ready to leave my baby behind since the doctors explained it's not healthy for her to be on the road. I hope you guys understand that this decision has been the hardest to make, but I have to do what's best for myself and my baby. Thank you, Bruno, for being so supportive and understanding. And that's exactly why people love Cardi B. People love Cardi B because she's an authentic, transparent person,
Starting point is 00:18:37 and she got her priorities in order. It's family first, always. Drop one of Clues bombs for mama body, damn it. The baby's health, your health. And you know how much money Cardi's going to make when she finally does go back out there? She's a mother now, and she got a child. I'm sure her perspective on life has changed.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Her career is about to glow up in a whole different way. You think you're about to show up. Bruno Mars responded, a message for Cardi. Most important thing is you and your family's health. I know the fans will understand. You are absolutely doing the right thing. I also know we'll share the stage when the time is right. We love you, Cardi, and we will play Bodak Yellow every night
Starting point is 00:19:09 in your honor. Please give your baby girl a hug from me and a hug on behalf of everyone on the 24-Hour Carrot Magic Tour. I can't even hear Bruno Mars' name no more without thinking of Ida B. Wells, because somebody put a side-by-side of Ida B. Wells and Bruno Mars, and I can't unsee that picture. Well, I loved his statement back to her.
Starting point is 00:19:26 That was nice. Of course, the family is most important, and so I'm glad that they both have squared that away, and we'll be hoping that Cardi's having a great time being a mom. Yes, I'm sure she is. The universe is going to reward Cardi so crazy. You watch. All right, now Will Smith has announced that he has a book that he's working on.
Starting point is 00:19:44 I know everyone's about to get this one. Here's what he said. I'm writing a book. I've got years and years of stuff I want to say, and I'm finally going to write a book for y'all. And he's doing it with my man Mark Manson, right? Yes, so he panned the camera to Mark Manson, and he said, I spent the last six months with crippling anxiety, but today I feel great. Mark Manson is a great author.
Starting point is 00:20:05 I've had him on my podcast, and he's got a book out right now called The Subtle Art of Not Giving an F. It's a great read. You should read it. Yes. I'm excited about this book. I was going to name my book, you know, I Don't Give an F and Neither Should You, a self-help guide on how not to give an F. And the publishers told me I couldn't.
Starting point is 00:20:20 And I was like, why? Because I'm black. And then they put his book. His book came out. The Subtle Art of Not Giving Up. And he then sold like millions and millions of copies. They were like, just relax. It won't be on bookstores.
Starting point is 00:20:31 It won't be in the front of the stores. And nobody will buy it. Because of the F word. Yes, that's not true. Mark Manson proved that is absolutely not true. He should have not gave an F. I should have, right? Yep.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Drop on the clothes box with Mark Manson. All right. Right. So apparently they're going to meet with five different publishers and sign a deal with the highest bidder. Of course. Now, Omarosa also has a book coming out on Donald Trump. Nah, we good.
Starting point is 00:20:53 According to her publisher, the book is explosive and jaw dropping. So we don't know exactly what's going to be in this book yet, but yeah. We cool on that, Omarosa. All right. Lamar Odom. Are you excited that he's back in basketball? He said, my heart literally warms up now.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I can finally share with you all that I'm returning to play basketball. I'll be playing in China. God is good. Thank you, Lord, for giving me another chance in life,
Starting point is 00:21:16 and thank you, fans, for your love and support during all those hard years. I wonder why more American players don't go play in China after watching what Stephon Marbury did. Like, Stephon Marbury
Starting point is 00:21:24 went over there and became Jordan. Don't he got, like, statues and all that? Yeah, they got statues of him and everything. I wonder why more people players don't go play in China after watching what Stephon Marbury did. Like, Stephon Marbury went over there and became Jordan. Don't he got, like, statues and all that? Yeah, they got statues of him and everything. I wonder why more people don't do that. I think it's difficult to go over there because you don't know the language. It's not home. It's got to be difficult to live someplace where people don't speak the same language as you.
Starting point is 00:21:36 You got to learn a different language. You got to learn how to eat different foods. It's difficult. You don't know anybody. You don't know nobody, no family. It's a whole new place to be. It's like being from New York and going to Atlanta. No, it's definitely not.
Starting point is 00:21:47 And let's not get it twisted. If Lamar didn't eat the bread, I don't think he would have went out there. And he probably also loves basketball. He said, basketball and my children have always been the light in my life and this is where my focus is right now. And I'm sure he felt like he needs to refocus and give himself a rebirth after everything that he's been through. The bread. Alright, Khloe Kardashian
Starting point is 00:22:04 in the meantime, since we're talking about Lamar. There you go. I like how you segue to his former front court partner. She's lost 33 pounds since giving birth, and she talked about the workout that she's doing, and she said what she's doing is jumping rope. Now, at the beginning of her workout, she does 1,000 jump ropes in under eight minutes,
Starting point is 00:22:19 and she does it at the end of her workout as well. That's her jumping rope? You stupid. You stupid. You stupid. Go ahead, Yee. She said it may not sound like a lot, but that ish is effing hard. I wasn't even able to jump rope for one minute when I first started working out again after my pregnancy, so I feel really proud.
Starting point is 00:22:36 Jumping rope for eight minutes is really hard. It's definitely. It is. 1,000 under eight minutes, that is a lot. I'm going to be honest with you. I'm just hating right now. Yeah, you are. I don't have the coordination.
Starting point is 00:22:45 I can't do it. The rope get tangled on my feet. No, I start my workout, I do a three-minute jump rope, and that's difficult, and I can't do a three-minute straight. You know, if you're a certain age, which I am, which is 40, what's the movie that gassed us to think that jumping rope was so easy and you tried to jump rope like this person? It's got to be a boxing movie.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Rocky. Rocky, yes. Rocky. And I can only jump rope backwards. I can only go you try to jump rope like this person. It's got to be a boxing movie. Rocky. Rocky. Yes. Rocky. And I can only jump rope backwards. I can only go backwards when I jump rope. I can't go forward. Well, I was a jump roping champion when I was in elementary school. I was double dutch.
Starting point is 00:23:12 And truth be told, that's my biggest regret that I don't know how to double dutch. I know how to double dutch. You can still learn. And I know how to. You should put that on your bucket list. I don't know how to. As a matter of fact, we have a double dutch team that can come up here and teach you how. Okay, let's do that.
Starting point is 00:23:27 And my wife is dead busy. She gets busy double-dutching. She won tournaments. I can't do it. They said I was double-handed. Oh, yeah, so it's like boom, boom, boom, boom. Yeah, I'm double-handed. Listen, I'll hang myself in double-dutch.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I'll jump right in there and the rope will get caught around my neck. No. Let's see. This is definitely old conversation right here. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. You think these kids don't know what double dutch is? They watch movies.
Starting point is 00:23:50 I don't be seeing them double dutch. I don't see anybody doing it. I don't see these kids double dutching no more. Oh, for real? Y'all don't double dutch no more? When's the last time you saw somebody jumping double dutch? Lisa Rae and somebody else on Instagram. Okay. When's the last time you saw some kids outside?
Starting point is 00:24:03 I have no idea. Damn, y'all don't do double dutch no more? No. What about hopscotch? I do, yeah, they do hopscotch. I ain't talking about you. I do hopscotch. He got crunk.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Why are you doing hopscotch? I do it with my kids. I do it with my kids. I draw it out with a chalk and all that. I do hopscotch with the kids. Now, do y'all play Scully? Y'all know about Scully? No, I don't know what that is.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I don't know what Scully is. I wear him in the winter on my head. Do you guys still do hand games? Like what kind of hand games? In the bedroom? What? With your kids? Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:24:30 I was playing patty cake with somebody recently. All right, guys. This is getting weird. It was a guy. All right, that's your rumor report. You were doing patty cake? I was. I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:24:39 I don't want to hear no more. All right, when we come back, we got front page news. And in front page news, we're going to talk to Charlemagne this morning. He is front page news. A lot of stuff been going on with him from the last three weeks. And we're going to ask him some questions and talk to him when we come back. All right, Mr. Breakfast Club, good morning. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:24:56 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now it's time for front page news. But instead, you know, Charlemagne, Ye you and I have been getting a lot of tweets, a lot of DMs, a lot of emails asking about what's been going on with you in the last three weeks with your case and what's been happening.
Starting point is 00:25:13 We haven't mentioned it or talked about it because we were waiting for certain information. And you wanted to be thorough with your statements. Yes. And I think today you have a statement. Do you have something statement. Yeah. Or you have something that you want to say about the case? I just got something I want to say.
Starting point is 00:25:27 I haven't said anything because I was waiting for more information to come out, and it's been a nutty three weeks. And I've learned a lot about the weight my words have, and I've been reminded about the responsibility I have to watch the way I talk about issues of sexual assault. And new files from my dismissed assault case in South Carolina were just released. I think they came out yesterday. And I hope this quashes whatever misconceptions people might have about the case. The documents show that I did everything in my power to fully cooperate with authorities
Starting point is 00:25:59 before this case was ultimately dismissed. And to be honest with you, the past few weeks has really made me regret, you know, helping to create an environment that allowed something like this to take place. Like, I'm going to forever regret that. But I cannot take responsibility for a crime that I did not commit. But most importantly, you know, I am praying for healing for the victim, okay? And I am committed to using my platform that God has blessed me with to do as much good as I possibly can for the rest of my life, right?
Starting point is 00:26:27 And I don't know if I plan to make any more public statements on this in the near future, but I just thought that was important for me to say and let everybody know that the new files from my dismissed assault case are out there. And I'm sure that they'll hit a bunch of websites and stuff shortly, so you can
Starting point is 00:26:44 see for yourself. This will include, like, so you can see for yourself. This will include, like, DNA testing and everything? Yes, and statements and witnesses and all that. Okay, and this also means that the case, I know we said before it won't be reopened, but this reiterates the case will not be reopened? Yeah, according to the solicitor of South Carolina a couple weeks ago, she definitely said the case won't be reopened.
Starting point is 00:27:09 She said that it would be unethical to reopen a case where there was a lack of evidence and the victim wouldn't cooperate. So, yeah. Okay. But, you know, once again, man, most importantly, I'm praying for healing for the victim. You know, and I totally regret, you know, creating an environment that allowed for something like that to take place. All right. Well, we look forward to seeing this paperwork and
Starting point is 00:27:26 reading all this paperwork. Yeah, and I'm soon as other people post it, I'm definitely going to be reposting this stuff all day long. Alright, and when we come back, we're going to talk with Simone Sanders. Oh man, drop on the clues box for Simone Sanders, that's the homie. It's her first time on The Breakfast Club, by
Starting point is 00:27:42 the way. I can't believe it because I've been knowing Simone for a few years now. Yes it is, so if you don't know, of course, she's on CNN, and she was a strong force behind Bernie Sanders. Yeah, that's when we first met her with Bernie Sanders. She had a lot to do with us interviewing Bernie Sanders both times that we did. Every interview she did. And I hosted a town hall for Bernie Sanders in Harlem with Bernie Sanders, Harry Belafonte, the late, great Erica Garner, and Nina Turner,
Starting point is 00:28:03 and I hosted that, and that was because of Simone. So thank you, Simone, and I can't wait to talk to you in a few moments. Alright, we'll kick it with her when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes! Simone Sanders!
Starting point is 00:28:19 What up, Simone? Greetings! Finally got here. I know, right? Every time some crazy stuff happens, Charlamagne's like, you got to come on the Breakfast Club. If you heard the voice when you hear in the intro of the Breakfast Club,
Starting point is 00:28:31 they're listening to Twitter. They're listening to the Breakfast Club. That was me. It's my pleasure. Oh, so it's on the intro? So someone's going to run me a check later?
Starting point is 00:28:40 Oh, wow. Wow. Y'all out here using my We had somebody else Reenact that for us We'll be calling you Have you been watching that show What is it, Who is America? Who is America?
Starting point is 00:28:57 It's for people that don't know Let Simone explain who she is Yes, I am the Most people know me from being on CNN. I'm a political commentator, but I was also the press secretary for Senator Sanders when he ran for president. And now I just like to think of myself as the spokesperson for the culture. Word. That's how I met Simone.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Simone gave me a lot of great looks when she was doing her thing with Bernie Sanders. I tried. Every interview that we did with Bernie Sanders for the Breakfast Club, it was because of Simone. That was Simone setting it up. Shout out. You know, I just try to put the people on and connect the folks. I think it's so, particularly for these politicians, I think it's so important that folks go straight to the folks that people read, watch, and listen to. And like the intro that y'all stole from me, people are listening to and watching the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:29:41 So I encourage everybody, people that want to be president, people that want to be dog catcher, mayor, whoever, if you have an opportunity, come here and speak directly to the people. So thank y'all. Thank you. We're going to use that clip again. We're definitely going to use that clip again. I feel like we didn't get behind Bernie the way we should have.
Starting point is 00:29:57 I think Bernie Sanders started a movement, absolutely. And I think there were a whole lot of people that did get behind him. There were a lot of people, though, that did not like Bernie, that still to this day do not like Bernie but I don't think it's about one person Bernie I was just going to say it wasn't about him it's about the political revolution, it's about the people and so that's what I'm most proud of
Starting point is 00:30:14 to have been a part of and have worked for someone like that so we don't know what's going to happen in 2020 and we still see some of the rippling effects from people that were fruits from Bernie Sanders tree as well absolutely how did you get into politics? what got you into politics? my mom was always in the community We'll see some of the rippling effects from people that were fruits from Bernie Sanders' tree as well. Absolutely. How did you get into politics? What got you into politics?
Starting point is 00:30:27 Oh, what got me into politics? My mom was always in the community. I'm from Omaha, Nebraska. Me and Malcolm X. Every time I tell people I'm from Omaha, they're like, aside I mean. I'm like, Malcolm X is also from Omaha. You're the second black person I met from Nebraska this year. First was Terrence Crawford.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Okay, okay, yeah. Shout out to Bud. Bud, we love him. Omaha, stand up. So, yeah, my mom was always involved in the community. And the thing that really catapulted me was I interned for my mayor while I was in college, and they tried to recall the mayor. They tried to take a vote to oust him out of office because they didn't like what he was doing.
Starting point is 00:30:57 And so I went to go volunteer on the recall campaign, the effort to beat the recall on the mayor's side after work. And African-American-owned firm out of Tennessee was the one that the mayor's office hired, and they liked me so much, they let me continue to work with them while I was in school. So I had a bunch of other jobs, but I always worked with this firm. So I worked with them up until 2014 when I went to go work a governor's race.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Did you want to be like a politician? Or you just always knew you wanted to talk about politics? I used to say I wanted to be a judge or a politician because judges and politicians, in my opinion, as a young person, were two of the most powerful people you could be in the world. Politicians make the laws. Judges hold people's lives in their hands. Now I'm the people that help get the people elected.
Starting point is 00:31:34 And I went into communications because I saw that so many people who were creating the messages on these campaigns didn't look like me. Didn't look like the people in this room. Like, had Bernie Sanders' press secretary been a white girl, he probably wouldn't have been on The Breakfast Club. That's true. And we need more people of color, more women of color, period, I think, in front
Starting point is 00:31:54 of and also behind the scenes when it comes to the political game. So I'm honored to be one of the people that's helped opening doors for other young black and brown women who want to come in and do politics. That's why I wasn't mad at Bernie or Hillary, because if you saw their teams, it was all black women. Hillary had a bunch of black women around her. Hillary had an army of black women working on her campaign.
Starting point is 00:32:15 That's how she ended up on the show as well. Clearly. Because again, if you leave it up to somebody else, the work might not get done. And so that is why it is important that people always talk about, oh, black women are saving the world. Black women have saved the Democratic Party. One, it's not black women's job to save anybody. But two, black women just don't deserve just a seat at the table.
Starting point is 00:32:35 We literally built the table. We made the table possible. black women giving us resources um and allowing us to do our thing by letting us be in charge running things giving us the spaces like allowing us to occupy the spaces that we've earned they've been the ceo of my life forever your grandma your mama your wife you know what i'm saying i mean like it's it's it's real in every single avenue and so i think that's what we're seeing now when it comes to the i mean we talk about 2020 but the midterm elections are a little over 100 days away. Wow. And there's an unprecedented number of women running for office. Yes, there are. Like, all
Starting point is 00:33:09 across the board. There are young black women who are on the ballot. And just like we made the difference in Alabama, New Jersey, Virginia, we're going to make the difference in the midterm elections for 2018. What should we be looking out for? You know, Stacey Abrams, of course. Yeah, Stacey Abrams. Yo, is it
Starting point is 00:33:26 not crazy to y'all that there has never been a black woman that has served as governor in the United States of America? The fact that we still have to say the first time this could potentially be the first black woman. The first black woman. So we have to do everything we can to get Stacey Abrams in office. But there's also, I mean,
Starting point is 00:33:42 Kennedy should be looking out for is Colin Allred in the 32nd District in Texas. But there's also, I mean, candidates you should be looking out for is Colin Allred in the 32nd District in Texas. I think it's the Dallas area. He's a former voting rights attorney, former NFL player who's running for Congress in a mostly white district, by the way. Lauren Underwood, who's running in the 14th Congressional District
Starting point is 00:33:57 in Chicago. Stacey Abrams is in Georgia for folks that don't know. So I think it's just important that we just, we gotta be real vigilant. So if you don't is in Georgia for folks that don't know. So I think it's just important that we just, we got to be real vigilant. So if you don't live in Georgia, you don't live in Illinois, you don't live in Texas, you can support these candidates by, yes, social media, but you can also give your money. Now for my Fisher Price politicians, people that don't really know politics, that, you know, like myself, I'm not really into it.
Starting point is 00:34:22 I don't have time. Where can we learn more about politics to find out more about the people? More about, well, one, for any of these candidates I just mentioned, you can go to their websites. But two, I think the Collective Pack is a really great resource, particularly for folks that are interested in what is happening in the black and brown spaces. They are doing really amazing work.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Higher Heights, which is all about getting more black women on the ballot. Higher Heights is supporting Stacey Abrams. And any of the black women you see out here running, Higher Heights has probably gotten behind them. That's a good name for a weed initiative, too. Higher Heights. Well, I think the Higher Heights, the black ladies have trademarked that. So hopefully, hopefully the weed people don't get any ideas.
Starting point is 00:35:02 All right, well, keep it locked. We got more with Simone Sanders When we come back we gotta talk about what happened In the airport when she was arrested Yeah alright we'll talk about it when we come back It's the Breakfast Club good morning Morning everybody it's DJ Envy Angela Yee
Starting point is 00:35:17 Charlamagne Tha God we are the Breakfast Club We have Simone Sanders in the building Now a lot of celebrities got a lot of flack for visiting Trump But it seems like Kim Kardashian went and got things done. What do you think about that? There was a lot of work that went into
Starting point is 00:35:32 what Kim Kardashian did. I think that Kim Kardashian gave it a star-studded aspect and a little flavor, a good photo op, but there was a lot of work that went behind that. She wasn't the only one.
Starting point is 00:35:44 And I think the difference between other folks that have went in to meet with the president and people like Kim Kardashian is that there was a lot of work that went behind that. She wasn't the only one. And I think the difference between other folks that have went in to meet with the president and people like Kim Kardashian is that there was a team, like Steve Harvey didn't take no team with him. He went in there to have the meeting with Donald Trump and then walked out with no promises. Like to my knowledge, Donald Trump or the Trump administration has not
Starting point is 00:35:58 pledged to support Steve Harvey's initiative with young black men and families. But for people that do decide to go into, to go to, you know, to break bread with the Trump administration and to try to get things done, you have to go in there with a plan and a mission and committed to getting something out of it.
Starting point is 00:36:14 And some people are going into this White House, going to meet with Donald Trump and everybody else and not coming out with anything. Right. And that does a disservice, I think, to a large swath of the American people who are literally under attack from this administration. And I just don't think this administration can keep its word.
Starting point is 00:36:29 At this time, are we just riding it out now and waiting for it to be over? Y'all, Donald Trump could be reelected. He could literally, if the election were held tomorrow, Donald Trump would be reelected as president. That's crazy. And so there is no riding it out. We have to continuously work every single day to keep the pressure on, to combat the things we can combat and change. So like a midterm election is coming up.
Starting point is 00:36:50 People need to vote. If you are not registered to vote, get registered. While voting will not change your life tomorrow, I think it's a necessary tool in the toolbox of social justice. Don't you think whoever wants to be the president in the Democratic Party should be saying something now? Well, yes, I do. I think they should.
Starting point is 00:37:04 But, you know, some people have midterm elections. Some of these folks are, some people that have been mentioned as potential presidential contenders, they still have to go through a midterm election. So, Simone, I saw you had a meeting with the CEO of Gucci. What was that all about? So I did an event with Gucci and Chime for Change, and we did it at this really great space at the Highline Hotel yesterday.
Starting point is 00:37:25 And so we had a conversation, really, about what people can do with this moment, how they can be engaged and involved. Lots of people had questions about young folks. And brands like Gucci, I think, are leading the way on what it means to be engaged and involved. And so I'm happy to be a part of the Gucci family. Gucci's going to be doing some voting engagement activities. They're going to roll out soon. So if Gucci can even get engaged and involved on the voting tip,
Starting point is 00:37:47 like, what is the excuse for so many other people and brands? Now, being a 28-year-old black woman, is it hard when someone tells you to shut up on TV? Um.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Do you feel like that? It's probably hard at any age. It's hard at any age. It was really hard when that man told me to shut up on TV last year, I do believe. Because it's just like,
Starting point is 00:38:04 I feel like if I was 35 with a bob and my name was Sue or my name was Joe, it wouldn't have happened to me. Sometimes I do get, like, embarrassed or upset on television because I know that people are only talking to me a certain kind of way because I am the young
Starting point is 00:38:19 person. And sometimes because I'm the young black person. How did you react? Oh, she snapped. Oh, I snapped. But I snapped in a professional way so I'd come back to work the next day. Gotcha. Just like some people would react. You know, because people deal with stuff like that in their offices or their workplaces every day. And so folks are like, how do you hold it together?
Starting point is 00:38:35 Because when you see me on TV, I'm at work. That's how I hold it together. And so I'm not going to let anyone disrespect me at work, just like I hope you wouldn't let anybody disrespect you at work. So I checked them. Told them, you are not going to tell me to shut up on national television while you try to excuse white supremacy, so you can shut up. And then Chris Cuomo stepped in and had my back.
Starting point is 00:38:52 He tried to demand an apology from me, and I wasn't giving him one. Why would you apologize to him? I really don't know. Now, he did call me after the show and apologize and gave a sincere apology, but I wanted an on-air apology. Now, since then, nobody has told me to shut
Starting point is 00:39:05 up on television. They don't want that fire. I don't think they want the smoke. What happened at LaGuardia Airport? A couple months ago, I was going through, trying to go through TSA pre-check, and my bag was a little extended. It was a little too big. And the TSA agent told me to step out of line to flatten my bag. And I was like, okay.
Starting point is 00:39:21 And I stepped around her and I got in line because I was gonna flatten it out so I could make my flight TSA agent came up to me and they said call the police and they literally they called the police on me within two minutes they called the police the police came and the police didn't know anything that was going on they were telling me to move I was trying to explain what was happening I had my hands up in the airport saying I do not feel safe I do not feel safe I do not feel safe next thing I not feel safe. I do not feel safe. Next thing I know, the officers grabbed me. They threw me up against the wall. Right inside a TSA pre-check,
Starting point is 00:39:48 put a knee in my back and put me in handcuffs. I'm crying. I had been on a conference call and I had told the person to stay on the phone. Shout out to Apple and these AirPods, okay? Because they recorded all of it. And finally, one of the officers said, okay, we're going to get to the bottom of this. I'm like, there is no bottom. The bottom is, I just
Starting point is 00:40:04 told you what happened. There's cameras everywhere. I'm like, there is no bottom. The bottom is, I just told you what happened. There's cameras everywhere. I'm sure you can see what happened. People are watching, and they're like, you're being irrational. I was like, I'm being irrational because there are 10 officers here. I'm in handcuffs, and I'm by myself. I was scared. But finally, I was just like, you know,
Starting point is 00:40:18 y'all can either take me where you're going to take me or let me go. And what'd they do? They just looked. They drug me out. 10 officers drug me out of the LaGuardia Airport outside, and then they put me in a cop car, and they took me to jail at the Port Authority. Now, was the person that called the police on you black or white? He was white.
Starting point is 00:40:32 So what's happened with that case since then? Well, I have a great attorney and my case was dismissed because it was crazy. What was the charges? Disorderly conduct for refusing to get out of the line. And I'm not embarrassed to talk about it because, one, I fully believe, you know, folks are like, you should have just been quiet and got out of the line. I said, no, no, just, I don't believe that
Starting point is 00:40:47 just because you have on a uniform, a police uniform, you should be able to talk to someone any kind of way. I also know that had I been 29, 28, 30 with a bob and my name was Sue
Starting point is 00:40:57 and I was white, I wouldn't have been in handcuffs. I wouldn't have. Yeah, that's ridiculous. Sue is living her best life. Sue with the bob is living her best life. And I think it is crazy. So one, I think we need TSA reform.
Starting point is 00:41:10 But two, I just think why are the police the recourse for folks at the airport? I need the TSA folks and people that work at the airlines to do better with customer service. But it was just a real, it was a crazy experience. And I remember sitting in the cell because they were like, they were like, you know, we're going to run your name and if you don't have any warrants, we'll let you go with the summons. And I'm thinking, okay. And I was like, y'all might want to Google me, but okay, but my name. So a sergeant comes
Starting point is 00:41:33 back and I know he's a sergeant because the other officers referred to him as sergeant. And he looks in the cell and he does a double take and I'm just like, mm-hmm. And next thing I know, people are coming by and they're like, oh, Ms. Sanders, would you like some water? And I looked up, I said, Ms and they're like, Oh, Ms. Sanders, would you like some water? And I looked up, I said, Ms. Sanders? I ain't been Ms. Sanders all morning.
Starting point is 00:41:50 I said, did y'all have bottled water? And they were like, no. And I was like, well, is the water filtered? He's like, ma'am, I don't think it's filtered. I said, well, I would just like my summon so I can get out of here. Wasn't there another situation with American Airlines or was that the same situation? No, this is a different situation. I fly a lot.
Starting point is 00:42:05 And you had an issue with them for checking a bag too? I tried to check my bag and an American Airlines agent called the police on me. Why? Because he said I got loud but it was crazy
Starting point is 00:42:12 because, oh my God, I kid you not, I was at LAX. Master P was in line five people ahead of me and he had just turned up on the American Airlines people
Starting point is 00:42:23 before I did and walked up. They didn't call the police on Master P, so I'm trying to figure out why me and my Gucci bag... You caught his little attitude. That's what it was. Master P got you arrested that time. Master P, well, they called the police, and this time, all these officers came,
Starting point is 00:42:37 and kudos to the officers that came to LAX because they de-escalated the situation. I was crying. They were like, calm down. I was like, I can't be calm. There's eight of y'all. There's one of me. I can't be calm. Finally, they were like, look, we got you another ticket for a later flight.
Starting point is 00:42:51 Come back. So I come back. I get on the plane. When I get off the plane at DCA, there is an American Airlines executive waiting for me when I step off the plane from the corporate office. He's like, Miss Sanders. And I looked up and I was like, walk with me. We walk off the plane. He said, Miss Sanders, we know who you are up and I was like, walk with me. We walk off the plane. He said, Miss Sanders, we know who you are.
Starting point is 00:43:07 And I was like, see, it should not matter who I am. You should not want this treatment for any woman on your airline, any black woman. So American Airlines did the right thing. Well, they tried. But again, I just think there needs to be reform. It should have never happened in the first place. It should have never happened in the first place.
Starting point is 00:43:21 And so does American Airlines or any of these other airlines, for that matter, do they have an advisory council? Where is this for all of the airlines? Because people are flying, black and brown people are flying every single day. And so many people have stories such as this.
Starting point is 00:43:35 The only reason we're talking about it right now is because it was me. Right. But this happens to so many people on a regular basis and their stories are not elevated to, you know, a Fox News story.
Starting point is 00:43:44 But I am just happy that CNN allows me the platform to share my views and share my perspective. Well, we appreciate you for joining us this morning. Simone Sanders, tell them where they can find you. Y'all can find me on Twitter at Simone D. Sanders, Simone with a Y, on Instagram at Simone D. Sanders. So thank y'all so much. It's Simone Sanders.
Starting point is 00:44:03 This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Char. It's Simone Sanders. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's get to these rumors. Let's talk Demi Lovato.
Starting point is 00:44:17 She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right. Well, we have some more information on what happened the night that Demi Lovato overdosed. Now, sources are saying that Demi Lovato was out celebrating a birthday party for one of her backup dancers. They went back to her house afterward, and they said Demi went to sleep around 11 a.m. Tuesday. One of her assistants was concerned because she hadn't come out of her bedroom. That's when the assistant entered the room and found her unresponsive. They tried to wake her up and when she couldn't, she called 911. Here is that 911 call. You're with the patient now? I was. I'm downstairs. There's
Starting point is 00:44:54 other people with me. I'm sorry. How old is she? We just need to get some help. Do you know what happened to her? Okay. We do have the paramedics responding now. Okay. Right now, just not letting a half out, but we are going with lights and sirens, okay? So if you can send somebody outside, the flag is down, okay? That's going to be helpful. Yes, we'll flag you. Okay, excellent.
Starting point is 00:45:11 No sirens, please, right? No, no, no, no. This is a medical emergency. I don't have control over that. You can request no sirens. Like, somebody dying or sick, man. It doesn't matter if they got sirens or not.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Like, stop worrying about celebrity in that moment. That's what she was worried about. That's what she was worried about. I guess as an assistant, she was like, we want to get help, but we also don't want to they got sirens or not. Like, stop worrying about celebrity in that moment. Worry about that young lady's health. I know. That's what she was worried about. I guess as an assistant, she was like, we want to get help, but we also don't want to call attention to the whole situation. Please. Because guess what? If she dies, that's going to call a whole lot
Starting point is 00:45:32 of attention to the situation. Let the sirens go. Alright, they still haven't revealed what it was that was in her system yet. But we do know Wilma Valderrama went to go visit her in the hospital after her overdose. They said he spent about two hours with her. If you guys remember, they were together for six years and broke up in June of 2016.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Now, in addition, she's returning to rehab. They said she's considering going to rehab away from L.A. just to kind of get away from everybody. You know she's the co-owner of a treatment center in the city, so she's going to remove herself from the wrong crowd. People also think she should reunite with her former sober coach Mike Bayer who she recently fired after
Starting point is 00:46:11 claiming that he betrayed her. They said she will need several weeks of detox work and intense therapy. She and Mike were so close for so long but this past few months there have been issues. So she's the co-owner of the Cass Centers in LA where her former sober coach Mike is the CEO.
Starting point is 00:46:27 That's where she went for help for depression, bulimia and substance abuse seven years ago. So we just prayed that she gets all the help that she needs and gets better. She was sober for six years and her team had been trying to do interventions so clearly they knew that there were some issues. They did say that overdose was a life and death situation.
Starting point is 00:46:44 She could have died from it. if the 911 call didn't go through and if paramedics didn't come early enough. They said she was unconscious and everything. All right, LeBron James recently did an interview, and he talked about one of his regrets. What do you think LeBron's regret is? Well, here's what he had to say. What do you say to your kid, though, like living up to you
Starting point is 00:47:05 being their dad and they're playing the same sport that you played? I still regret giving my 14 year old my name because of that. Like when I was younger, obviously I didn't have a dad. So my whole thing was like whenever I have a kid, not only is it going to be a junior, I'm going to do everything that this man didn't do. Only thing I can do is give him the blueprint, and it's up to them to take their own course whenever that time comes. I get what he's saying, but here's the bright side. I guarantee LeBron James Jr. is going to have a better basketball career than Michael Jordan Jr., so you may not be able to say
Starting point is 00:47:37 LeBron is better than Michael when you're talking about the fathers, but you will be about the sons. Well, this is all part of a new HBO series called The Shop. He was talking to Jon Stewart, Snoop Dogg, Odell Beckham Jr. and Maverick. All right, now let's talk about Amber Rose. She recently went on a podcast. This was Spencer and Heidi Pratt's podcast, Make Spidey Famous Again. And here's what she had to say about her theory about Becky with the good hair.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Have you ever been invited to, what would you call it, a sexual dinner? No. I do know Gwyneth Paltrow has gone. Like, if you're not invited... I definitely think Gwyneth Paltrow is like Becky with the good hair. I really feel like she's... Give us... What does that mean? I feel like she's the one that was like f***ing
Starting point is 00:48:15 Jay-Z. They were like friends, and then like, you don't see Gwyneth Paltrow with Beyonce anymore. It just seems like she was the one that was f***ing Jay-Z, and now Gwyneth lost her husband but like Beyonce's still with Jay. I'd take Amber. She wanted to make sure
Starting point is 00:48:29 she got a soundbite. Now Amber Rose said, bruh, we were joking on a podcast. I will stop with the clickbait. I have no information about anyone's personal life. You can't get mad
Starting point is 00:48:40 after you put something out there like that and then you get backlash. Those words came out of your mouth. People start analyzing. They start analyzing the word. You also kind of got to be like,
Starting point is 00:48:48 I'm just kidding. Just a joke. Nope. But that was like a whole theory. Well, anyway, Gwyneth Paltrow's rep did respond and told People Magazine that those allegations are completely absurd
Starting point is 00:48:58 and 100% false. They said Gwyneth and Beyonce and Jay-Z are still very close friends, so none of this makes any sense. Come on, Amber. Come on, homie. You know how this game works, okay? You know you couldn't just throw that out there.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Not at all. Just leave that in the universe and think people wasn't going to pick that up. Mind you, they didn't even know what she was talking about when she said it. They were like, what? Explain to our audience. What does that mean? Becky with the good hair. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:49:20 Gwyneth Paltrow. Is her middle name Rebecca? Anyway, I'm Angela Yee. Does she like mayonnaise ice cream? It's your rumor report. What? Charlemagne? Yes. What? Who you giving that donkey to?
Starting point is 00:49:31 A donkey today, four after the hour, is going to a man named Kyle Gentleman, who has created one of the worst things that the planet has ever seen, and this could possibly be the beginning of the end of all species as we know it. What's his name again? Kyle Gentleman. Kyle Gentleman? Yes, and there's nothing gentlemanly about what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:49:48 All right, we'll get into that when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. Donkey, donkey, donkey. Bunch of dead asses.
Starting point is 00:50:01 It's time for the donkey of the day. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the Donkey of the Day. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the Devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Yeah, the Donkey of the Day for Friday, July 27th goes to a man named Kyle Gentleman. Now, Kyle is the owner of an ice cream parlor called Ice.
Starting point is 00:50:22 This ice cream parlor is Scottish, and it's in a town called Falkirk. Kyle and the good folks at Ice have created one of the worst monstrosities this planet has ever seen. I mean, the effects of this concoction that they created will forever change the dynamics of the world we live in. I mean, this is top five, maybe top three of the worst things ever created on this planet. I mean, in no particular order. Some of the worst things created by humans on this planet
Starting point is 00:50:41 have been nuclear bombs, the old ABC show Cavemen, based off the characters from the Geico commercial, slavery, the NFL's new national anthem policy, concentration camps, the school-to-prison pipeline, nooses, especially nooses. F the person who decided to turn a perfectly good rope into a murder weapon.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Okay, speaking of weapons, one of the worst things ever created was automatic weapons and bump stocks. Let's not forget Belly 2. And a list of some of the worst things ever created was automatic weapons and bump stocks. Let's not forget Belly 2. And a list of some of the worst things ever created by human beings on the planet wouldn't be complete without the jerry curl. Okay, we're just talking about some of the worst things created by human beings. And Kyle has added to that list by inventing a brand new flavor of ice cream that I'm sure will be coming to a store in Montana very soon. Oh, this line of ice cream is sure to be all the rage in North and South Dakota.
Starting point is 00:51:26 It will sell out at Whole Foods everywhere, and the flavor of that new ice cream is... Guess. Who wants to guess? Anybody want to guess? I already know. The white guy in the room is raising his hand. Steve, what do you think? And he thinks it's delicious. Mayonnaise! Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:51:42 Mayonnaise ice cream is here. All right. Salute to Esquire magazine. They posted a headline that says mayonnaise ice cream exists and it might be brilliant. Then they put hear us out. After you tell me you think mayonnaise ice cream is brilliant, Esquire, there's nothing more to hear out our end. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Now, Esquire first paragraph says we now exist on the same physical plane as mayonnaise ice cream, and it's either ingenious or the end of all mankind. I'm going to take Armageddon as a point of 500, Alex. Okay, the worst thing about this is that it looks like vanilla ice cream, so somebody could make you a bowl, you don't know any better, you take a taste, and immediately you get poisoned. All of a sudden you want to listen to Taylor Swift and call the police on black people for doing the In My Feelings Challenge in the park Okay mayonnaise ice cream is what you give your kids
Starting point is 00:52:27 When they not behaving Alright my little two year old doesn't like to eat all her food Because she's so focused on dessert And she loves ice cream so the rule is You don't finish your dinner you don't get dessert Alright bring some mayonnaise ice cream in the house You don't finish your dinner then you getting this Nuclear weapon and a bowl for dessert
Starting point is 00:52:43 Called mayonnaise ice cream Now mayonnaise is a combination of lemon juice or vinegar with egg yolks. None of those things would taste good together frozen in a bowl. Alright, Baskin Robbins, please don't make this your 33rd flavor. Let me just look at it. Imagine walking into Baskin Robbins
Starting point is 00:52:58 and you see butter pecan, chocolate chip cookie dough, rocky road, cookies and cream, and mayonnaise flavored ice cream. One of these kids is doing their own thing. All right. Mayonnaise ice cream has me thinking of this quote. I read about inventions once, and that quote is, an invention has to make sense in the
Starting point is 00:53:16 world it finishes in, not the world it started in. See, this don't make sense to us now, but it's going to make sense in a world full of whiteness. They about to get rid of us all, bro. Okay, they collecting all infinity stones right now to put in Putin's infinity gauntlet. He gonna snap his fingers, and everybody with melanin gonna disappear, and it's gonna be a world
Starting point is 00:53:35 full of Taylor Swift playlists and mayonnaise ice cream, and it will all be Kyle's fault. Okay, please give Kyle Gentleman and Ice the Ice Cream parlor the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw!e-haw. Who's going to try it? Everybody on Fairfactor. That's going to be the next Fairfactor challenge.

Starting point is 00:54:02 That sounds disgusting, too. Like a little spicy but sweet. That sounds like spicy diarrhea. You drink water just because you mentioned that. What about pickle ice cream? No, man. No condiment ice cream across the board. Especially not mayonnaise.
Starting point is 00:54:15 Stop. Condiments are meant to be condiments. Polynesian sauce ice cream. That sounds like that's going to be good. You might like that. Yeah. Barbecue ice cream. No.

Starting point is 00:56:06 Swerve. My homie, actually, he named me Swerve because when I was young, like, I like cars, so I always crashed.
Starting point is 00:56:12 I used to get so... Bad driver? No, I know how to drive. I used to get so high. I just used to crash and hit fire hydrants, all kind of s***.
Starting point is 00:56:21 Oh, you was running from police or just randomly driving? I did like that, too. Yeah, I crashed my first time. I was running from the police, crashed into a fire hydrant.

Starting point is 00:56:56 I just remember I remember one time We had a conversation And you was just Explaining the mentality Of Chicago And it made so much sense Cause you know
Starting point is 00:57:02 Even like the good people there Yeah the good people Gotta protect themselves. Yeah, I'll be having to stress that a lot. It seems like people are surprised like with Swerve that it's on radio so much. When I play it in the morning, they're like, yo, you playing this? Like they look at you as such an underground artist and the artist that it's almost surprising that we're playing you on radio.
Starting point is 00:57:20 Yeah, and the thing like that's why I feel like just the way i've been like my career been going over the years is unique because i still been able without like having a hit record or being on billboard none of these mainstream things that you really get way going to a label because i'm still independent you know i'm just really i got a partnership with epic you know i'm saying sony orchard through uh you know just a partnership with label service and stuff like that i'm still independent artist you know so explain a partnership with label service and stuff like that. I'm still an independent artist, you know. Explain that to the kids. How can you be independent and still sign to Epic or still a partnership with Epic?
Starting point is 00:57:50 Just over the years. And I could thank my partner for that. He over there in the corner, JB, just really showing me the game, you know, and just teaching me the ins and outs of really knowing how to stick to my budgets, you know, and knowing what I got to spend this alone. So I got to make this a month to spend solely on taking care of me and my family. You know what I'm saying? So if that's $10,000, $20,000, $50,000, whatever, and then I'm generating this off tour and
Starting point is 00:58:13 this off streams and this off merch and I got to pay for this just off. This is my budget that the label going to give me anyway. You know what I'm saying? Even if I sign a deal and they give me an advance or whatever the case may be, these are my budgets for this. So we really paying this out of my pocket. Like, I spent $80,000
Starting point is 00:58:27 of my own money out of my pocket to pay for my billboards, you know what I'm saying, without a label. So when you go into a label and doing that, because it's still a partnership
Starting point is 00:58:33 regardless, you know, it's going to be a partnership whether they sign you or all your masters. Anyway, it's just going to be how much you giving up. What can we do for you versus how you can help me?
Starting point is 00:58:43 So once you seeing that and as we both helping each other, it's nothing a partnership you know what i'm saying i don't owe you nothing you don't owe me nothing right now because that's on your little chunky baby thank you so much thank you man that's that's i love that's all that's crazy like in that little bit of time how baby could change you got a girl boy boy okay how did you change so far yeah um i feel like i'm more consistent like i've been saying i, I could find more hours in a day now since I had my son. Like I could be more productive. Either I'm in the studio or at home.
Starting point is 00:59:11 If the vibes ain't right in the studio, I'm at home. If the vibes ain't right at home, I'm in the studio. You know what I mean? Anytime. Like if I could get two, three hours out there, because I'm busy. I got to be grinding. And I was on the road back doing shows when my son was two weeks. So anytime I could just go home and be with him. Like I was supposed the road back doing shows with my son was two weeks so anytime I could just
Starting point is 00:59:25 go home and be with him like I was supposed to be here doing press I had press in Chicago it got canceled I flew home just to go see my son for a couple hours like I know how I used to be back then I was everywhere like wherever I end up that's what I'm gonna make the best of but now I'm really like trying to get home yeah like I could really find more hours in a day now you know I'm saying and I'm up three in the morning changing diapers, getting bottles, four, five, six in the morning. Like, I'm doing the whole night. You know, like, it made me more, like, I guess, consistent.

Starting point is 01:01:14 Nah. We walked past each other. We made eye contact a little bit, but we didn't really speak. You know what I'm saying? I don't anticipate that type of shit.
Starting point is 01:01:22 I ain't no beef. I got too much good shit going on in my life right now to really be paying attention to that kind of shit. I don't no beef. I got too much good shit going on in my life right now to really be paying attention to that kind of shit. I don't care who say they the king of Chicago. I don't even want to be in Chicago right now. I'm trying to get up out of Chicago. I'm trying to be the king of the world.
Starting point is 01:01:33 I keep hearing that. People say, yo, to make it, if you're from Chicago, to really make it, you got to get out of Chicago. No, you got to get out. And that's pretty much anywhere, but especially Chicago. I feel I can't be bigger. Any bigger than I am right now, I can't get bigger than that in Chicago.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Really? Nah, I don't feel like I can. Why is that, too much hate in the city? Too much hate, and it's just, I can't really, you can't be productive, you know what I'm saying? You can't really go to the studio. You got to think, like, oh, man, anything can happen in this situation.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Anything can happen in this situation, you know what I'm saying? So for me to not be able to go through that, I just got to get out of Chicago and think. When I'm in Chicago, I can't think clear. I can happen in this situation. You know what I'm saying? So for me to not be able to go through that, I just got to get out of Chicago and think. When I'm in Chicago, I can't think clear. I can't really work.
Starting point is 01:02:09 I'm only thinking about family and just survive. Yeah, survive. That's it. Now, Fadih, I heard about you and Chance, the rapper, feel quite a responsibility

Starting point is 01:02:25 giving away uh like fifteen thousand dollars to chance organization for mental health you know and not just mental health but like post-traumatic stress disorder for people who really like first hand seeing people die or you know what i'm saying like because in real life if they give veterans veterans in the army uh therapy all that and they seen probably one murder two two people get killed we seen 12 15 you know what i'm saying like real life i know people who really seeing they're seeing 10 of their homies that right in front of them you know so that's post-traumatic stress disorder whether you believe it or not if you feel like you gotta leave out the house and with a gun and you're gonna die every day that's post-traumatic stress that's real mental health
Starting point is 01:03:03 that people really not understanding that this is what we go through. Like, everybody, I know for a fact, at least like 60, 70, probably 80% of the male population
Starting point is 01:03:11 in Chicago is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. You know what I'm saying? Like, people who not even in the streets paranoid that they gonna get robbed or killed.
Starting point is 01:03:18 That's post-traumatic stress, right? Those hearing gunshots. Like, for real. So, I got that going on in Chicago. Another thing, me and my partner, we're building a multimedia facility in Chicago, also on the south side of Chicago, on the heart of Chicago, where it's going down.
Starting point is 01:03:33 It's for people who want to do music. Like, if you want to be a videographer, you know what I'm saying, or you want to be a producer, anything, it's going to be a real multimedia facility for people to rehearse, perform, and make beats, all that kind of stuff that we really put in Chicago like a youth center. You know what I'm saying? Like you can enroll. Nine times out of ten, it's going to be free. You know, like we're not going to charge the kids or nothing.
Starting point is 01:03:55 We just really try and give back in the best way possible. It's going to be our home too, like the studio, you know. So I'm trying to do a lot for Chicago. I'm just quiet with it, you know. I don't really try to. I can't have all this on one plate. Can't eat two plates at once. So that's one thing with me. I really try to focus on whatever I'm going to focus
Starting point is 01:04:09 on or at least put the best person in position to focus on. Chance still in Chicago, right? No, Chance ain't leaving Chicago. That's for sure. He ain't got to leave Chicago. You know what I'm saying? Like Chance, he gonna be the mayor of Chicago. I was just going to say, he's like the mayor. So why does it work for him but can't for y'all?
Starting point is 01:04:25 Because y'all more close to the street? Yeah, it's completely different. We grew up two completely, totally different ways. Opposite sides. And that's what's unique about it. Like, we grew up
Starting point is 01:04:33 completely different. That's what makes Chance him. Because there's people who grew up like Chance who act like they me or want to rap like me or think like me. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:04:41 And Chance is Chance. That's what makes it so unique. That's why people, no matter where you're from, are gonna, like like really command chance because it's so hard to do that in chicago it's so hard to be yourself you know what i'm saying like people really following the trends the waves that's why people getting killed so much because there's people out here killing because they think it's really cool you know what i'm saying how did you and chance meet up uh man chance met about like six years ago something like that just being around you know
Starting point is 01:05:05 like when the music scene started really bubbling we knew a lot of the same mutual people and we got the record fight or flight me him in common that's from like 2014 you know so it was like four years ago we just got closer and closer like chance a real dude it was times i was just riding around downtown getting hot supposed to be in the studio it's one two in the morning like i'm seeing chance walk in the studio he's stopping like stopping traffic walking to the street just to come say what up and this one he big still super big you know what i'm saying like that just that alone the little things like that let you know like a dude cares to have real day absolutely being from chicago what are your thoughts on like a kanye do you feel any connection to him or do
Starting point is 01:05:41 you feel like it doesn't affect he does he doesn't affect you at all? Kanye lost his self. Yeah, Kanye don't really affect me at all. He definitely don't really affect nobody in Chicago, honestly. Say, for instance, Kanye and Chance would have tried to do the same thing. Like, I still f*** with Kanye, don't get me wrong. I always put my desert rats on. Desert rats, alright. But I was just saying if Chance and Kanye were to do, like, the exact same thing for the exact same cause,
Starting point is 01:06:06 there's no way that Kanye would be able to grasp more people than Chance would. You know what I'm saying? He should be able to. You feel me? Like, yeah, more, you know, Chance, what Chance is doing is really his life and what he wants to do for Chicago. You know what I'm saying? They see Chance all the time. Yeah, they see Chance all the time.
Starting point is 01:06:21 Keep it real. Chance is yay on steroids. Yeah, yeah. He definitely yay on steroids. Why do you think Chance is yay on steroids. Yeah, yeah. He definitely yay on steroids. Why do you think Chance is yay on steroids? What you mean as far as what? It just is. Music-wise, everything.
Starting point is 01:06:30 Everything. Swag-wise, culture-wise. They all met Chance. He's the same person. Still the same. He is doing everything that Kanye was supposed to done on steroids. That's what you're saying. That's right.
Starting point is 01:06:40 He donated a million dollars to CPS. You know what I'm saying? He's doing all this shit. He's a politician. That's like, for real. million dollars to CPS. You know what I'm saying? He's doing all this shit. He's a politician. That's like, for real. One thing I see about Chicago and shit, when I go there, that shit is still like a beautiful city. Yeah.
