The Breakfast Club - Tekashi 6ix9ine reunite?

Episode Date: December 17, 2019

With just one day left to find out if Tekashi 6ix9ine will be sentenced and if Charlamagne will keep his promise about what he will do to him, we opened up the phone lines to ask if it is still necessary to have him back on the show for an interview, after so much negativity. Moreover, Charlamagne gave "Donkey of the Day" to Shane Keisel for his vulgar comments to NBA players. Also we had entrepuener Chantel Calloway stop by where she spoke about her new game, Rhyme Antics" and more.

I left here yesterday because, you know, I've been on vacation all week, so I finally spent some time at home. And I sent a lot of packages to your house

for the holidays. Yes. Anyway, a lot of that stuff worked out. I think I only got to return one thing. So thank you so much for taking those packages for me. Oh, okay. Great. Now, if you don't know, you need to save money on taxes. She sends all the stuff to my house.

Well, now, that's not the only reason. What's the other reason? I know somebody will get the packages at your house. I know if I'm not home, sometimes they leave them outside. I don't know what happens to them after that. Right, right. So she sends them all to my house, and then I got to bring them to work like I work for a carrier. So I'm carrying nine boxes through yesterday, the snow that was coming down and the rain.

But Merry Christmas, she has. that's my present to you. That's right, Christmas, God damn it. Let's make the most of it because tomorrow is our last day. Okay, until the new year. Correct. All right, and I am very excited about that. I am ready to disconnect and unplug. I'm talking about no work, period.

I'm not doing nothing. You mean you haven't done that already? Slowly but surely. Because, you know, I got a lot of other things that I do. So, yeah, slowly but surely. But, yeah, after this, this is it for me. Yeah, I did my last seminar of the year. I was supposed to close this Friday on something else,

but I don't know if that's going to happen, so we'll see with that. And enjoy life. You need time for yourself, man. You got to disconnect and take care of your mental health. You know what I mean? Yeah, so for the next couple of weeks, I'm going to be daddy daycare. I'm taking the kids to school every day. I'm picking the kids up.

My daughter got a tooth, right, that's just hanging. And she won't let me pull it. No, let it come out on its own. She's six. She'll probably play with it until it falls out. But it's just hanging out. It looks like snaggletooth. It's just hanging.

I'm like, let me just take it off. It's like, no, no, daddy. You just tell her don't lose it so you can put that $20 under her pillow. Right, because the tooth fairy brings it. Ain't no goddamn tooth fairy.

The tooth fairy brings it. Just don't lose your tooth because put it under your pillow, daddy will put $20 under it. Tooth fairy will take care of that. Knock it off. Ain't no goddamn tooth fairy. Yes, it is!

Ain't no white woman with wings coming in your child's room and just putting money under her pillow. Because if there was a white woman with wings in your daughter's room, you'd shoot at her to put the dog on her.

Put that punk-ass dog on her. Put that punk-ass dog on her. Put that punk-ass dog on her. They'll be all over her. Knock it off. Oh, my goodness. Well, let's get this show cracking. All right, Miss Calloway will be joining us.

Now, Miss Calloway has a game. Pretty dope game. What's the name of the game? It's called Rhyme Antics. Rhyme Antics. Yes, it is a very good game for Red Cup kickbacks. If you like me

and you like to host people at the house, you know it's holiday season and you're going to have people over and you're tired of playing Uno, you're tired of playing Spades, which you can never really be tired of playing. But if you just want to switch it up and try something new, Rhyme Antics is a great game. Absolutely. Well, let's get

the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Well, since we're talking about strangers in the home, let's talk about Ring and some issues that have been circulating that people have had with others hacking into their Ring services. I know a lot of people have those cameras. And we'll tell you how Ring has responded to those security breaches. All right.

We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

I don't like us starting the show with anything with Christmas music. We shouldn't have did that. But whatever. We need Christmas music. You've't like us starting the show with anything with Christmas music. We shouldn't have did that, but whatever. We need Christmas music. You've been saying that for the last week and a half. That's very true. Have they got any Christmas music? No, that's not true. I've been screaming for the Christmas song, but we finally put it in yesterday.

Okay. Yes. All right, well, let's get into some front page news. Now on Monday Night Football, the Saints beat the Colts 34-7, and congratulations to Drew Brees. He sets the NFL record for all-time passing touchdowns, passing Peyton Manning. And then right behind Peyton Manning is Tom Brady.

So they'll be going back and forth, I'm sure. Drew Brees has been around for a long time. I think 19 seasons or 17 seasons. He's 47 years old. Yeah. All right. He's not 47, Debbie. What else we talking about, Yee?

Well, Barack Obama was at a private event in Singapore, and it was there that he said that women make better leaders than men. He said that women are imperfect, but they are pretty and indisputably better than men. He said, now, women, I just want you to know you are not perfect, but you are better. I'm absolutely confident that for two years, if every nation on Earth was run by women, you would see a significant improvement across the board on just about everything, living standards and outcomes. Then he also said that he does not plan to get back into the political arena. He said if you look at the world and look at the problems, it's usually old people, usually old men not getting out of the way. Old white men.

He said it's important for political leaders to try and remind themselves that you are there to do a job, but you are not there for life. You are not there in order to prop up your own sense of self-importance or your own power. You should have added that white in there, because you know it's all white men. And he's right. Women have always been the CEO of our lives for a long time. You think about your grandmother,

you think about your mom, you know. I know I don't run my household. I got three daughters and a wife. All right, now let's talk about a ring. A lot of people have the ring, which is the video cameras that you can put inside and outside your house. They also have those automatic lights that come on with motion detectors and all of that. Well, there's been some issues with people having ring inside of their homes. In particular, there's one incident that you can hear where somebody hacked into this eight-year-old girl's room.

Who is that? I'm your best friend. I'm Santa Claus. Mommy! I'm Santa Claus. So imagine that starts coming through while your daughter is in the room and somebody's saying, I'm Santa Claus, or all kinds of things were happening. I was reading about this over the past week.

Well, Ring has released a statement, and they basically are saying what happens is malicious actors are obtaining some Ring users' account credentials, like your username and password, from a separate external non-Ring service and then reusing them to log into some Ring accounts. So they're saying people should use that multi-factor authentication. So in other words, not just using an old password that you use for everything where people can hack in, So they're saying people should use that multi-factor authentication. So in other words, not just using an old password that you use for everything where people can hack in, but make sure you use the multi-factor authentication so that it's harder for people to hack into the system. But I've always heard that you shouldn't have cameras in your house because people can hack into those cameras. I think it's great.

Like I have Ring, but it's for outside of my home. What about those of us with kids? We got nannies and babysitters. I'm not saying that you don't. I trust my nanny, but it's for outside of my home. What about those of us with kids? Yeah, I was gonna... We got nannies and babysitters, you know, I'm not saying that you don't... I trust my nanny, but you still want to have the cameras and not see what's going on. Yeah, but it depends on what age. Like, as a baby, yes, you should... I think you have cameras, but as my kids are, you know, 18, 16,

6, 5, and 3, no, there are no cameras in their rooms. Now, there's cameras in the common rooms, there's cameras in the hallways, there's cameras in the family room where there is a common area, but not in the actual. And anybody can hack into your cameras that's in the bedroom.

And you don't want people looking at somebody in the bedroom. Yeah, but when your kids are old enough to tell you what's going on and tell you what happened to them, yes, you removed the camera. Yeah, that girl was old enough. How old was she?

I mean, she's sitting there talking. She was screaming. Well, listen, I can't put all the blame on Ring. We have to understand we're in an age of technology. Nothing is safe. Everything you possess with a password has the ability to be hacked. And it's really just a matter of time. If you've got something with a password, you can try to protect yourself all you want.

But in this day and age, anything you have with a password can be hacked. And just imagine this. If somebody wasn't speaking through the camera and just watching the video, you wouldn't even know. They might be doing that to us right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don't know that. That is true. Every day we go home, every day we're on these phones, you wouldn't even know. They might be doing that to us right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don't know that. That is true. Every day we go home, every day we on these phones,

we might be getting listened to, we might be getting watched. We have no idea until they make their presence known. Yeah, and you'll see, for me, like I said, I got cameras in the common areas and in the hallways, but the main reason I have the cameras in the house is, y'all gonna laugh, is for that dog. So what happens is, I'm gonna tell you some real stuff. So if somebody's in my house, I can give the dog commands

through the cameras. So if it's, let's say, my mother comes in the house and surprises me and my dog is about to go crazy on her, I can command the dog from wherever I am. You know what I mean? Or if somebody pops, let's say Charlamagne runs up in my house and I want to let the dog on his ass, I can give the dog a command and the dog will be all up

in Charlamagne's house. Yeah, and if you're on vacation or something like that, and somebody breaks into your crib, you can be right there looking at him. Hi, how are you? Oh, yeah, you're about to go to jail, buddy. We see you. You know what you look like. Absolutely.

All right, well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Why would I be in your house? I'm just saying. I don't know. 800-585-1051.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.

Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel.

I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up

their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help. We still have the off-road portion to go.

but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.

And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake up, wake up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.

Hello, who's this? This is Josh from Houston. Hey, Josh. Good morning. Good morning. How are y'all? We're doing pretty good. Get it off your chest, brother. Yeah, I listen to y'all every morning up until after this part. Normally, I turn the station because, you know, every day, Charlemagne is black, white,

black, white. Why can't it just be people? You know, when a black person does something good, good for them, but we don't have to put the black in it. Every day, it's hating on white people. Now I'm from Chicago and by all means, I'm not racist, but every day listening to him, he puts that hate in people's heart because all he does is talk about white people. And it's like like we're not all the same and cracker cracker cracker it's it's annoying and it promotes more hate than it does good hey man only thing i can tell you right now is kiss my black ass because there will always be

a difference between uh good white people and crack ass crackers and if you're not a crack ass cracker you wouldn't be worried about when I say crack-ass cracker. So why do you only listen for 15 minutes? But a hit cracker will holler. I only listen because I like to hear the front page news. Oh. Okay. So I listen to y'all's introduction,

I listen to the front page news, and then when it's getting off your chest, and sometimes it's hard to get past front page news because Charlamagne is constantly, it's constantly, and it's just like, man, like, let it go. Can I ask you a question? Do you hate racists? Do I hate racists?

Absolutely. Do you hate bigots? Yes. So why do you get upset when I call them crack-ass crackers? Because all you do is talk bad about white people, and it's not all white. No, no, no, no, no. I talk bad about racists and bigots. It's the difference between white people and racists and bigots.

It's some people who just happen to be white who are actually allies of all people, but then there's some people who are racists and bigots. It's the difference between white people and racists and bigots. There's some people who just happen to be white who are actually allies of all people, but then there's some people who are racists and bigots who are white who I call crack-ass crackers. I do that for distinction. I understand that. No, you don't. Here's a question. The three queens that just won. Now, I see the post all the time on Facebook now that, you know, first time no white person has won.

And that's cool. Congratulations to those. They deserve that. But why do we always got to take it back? If you want race, my only thing, Charlemagne, is if you want it to go away, then you need to stop talking about it. No, no. That's what y'all want. Y'all want us to not talk about it because you don't want to acknowledge it because acknowledging it means that you can't heal something until you reveal it.

So unless you acknowledge what's actually going on and actually talk about what's going on, then you can't get to a good understanding about it. You don't want us to talk about it.

But thank you for calling And that's why I gotta tell you to kiss my black ass and I say black because I am black. Thank you for listening for that 15 minutes. Appreciate it.

Yeah, we need that. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is D from the Break City. What's up, D? We haven't heard from you in a while, man. I thought you was locked up, bro. Nah, man.

I took a long vacation. All right, that's locked up. I had to call you this morning because I want to know, Salamayne, do you have your knee pads ready, man? Because 6ix9ine is coming home any day. Let's be. And you said if you see this child, you're going to give him s**t, bro. You're going to need them knee pads.

Are you a man of your word? Can I ask you a question, my brother? Why don't we recognize hyperbole anymore? How come back in the day Biggie could say, you look so good, I'll suck on your daddy's D, or I'll sleep a RuPaul before I mess with them escape girls, but y'all can look at that and understand that as hyperbole. But when I do the same thing...

Hyperbole? What is it? Hyperbole. Hyperbole, I'm sorry. I was like, what's hyperbole? I thought it was a football. When y'all look at me and I say the same thing, y'all want me to actually cash in the bet. What's the difference?

I don't know, but you be good over there with your hyperbole. And by the way, that 6ix9ine news ain't even real. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Good job, though, Trav. Hey, Charlamagne, listen, I want to let you know that you was loud and wrong yesterday when Angelina was talking. Angelina, you said Andrew Johnson, and you tried to check her and say Jackson. I wasn't trying to check her. I was wrong. Why you got to say that's checking? I was wrong.

That's not checking. There was a president named Andrew Jackson as well. Who's on the $100 bill, right? $20 bill. Oh, $20 bill. See, that's not checking. That's when I say $20 bill. Because Ben Franklin's on the $100 bill.

That's not checking. That's correcting. She corrected me. I corrected her. What's the problem? Well, all I know is that also when I called in the last time when the Eagles was about to play the Giants, and I said that all we have to do is get into the playoffs and click,

and we can make the Super Bowl. That's still the real thing. We still going to the Super Bowl. That's going to happen. I'm going to be honest with you. I thought about this yesterday, Trav. I don't know if I want us to make the playoffs, yo. I do.

I want us to make it click. No. I do. I want us to make it click. No. I don't want no reason for Jason Garrett to be sticking around. I really don't. Yeah. I feel like we need to hit rock bottom, bro. I really do. Well, Trav, hold on.

It was a good battle, though. No, it wasn't. It was not a good battle. It was not a good battle. It was very one-sided. It was not a good battle. No, it wasn't. Listen, I just want the world to know, because, Sean, man, you said something.

You said that Sean Stone is homophobic and don't like gay people. That's wrong, bro. You know what I mean? I work with gay people. I've talked to gay people. You have gay people as your friends. I have no problem with gay people. Did you hear your song?

Some of my best friends are gay. Did you hear that little trash-ass voice memo you sent up here? Did you hear what you were saying in there? It was fun, bro. It was fun. It was, you know what I mean? I love trap track, though. It was funny. You know what I mean, I love trap track, though. It was funny.

You know what I mean? Shout out to Big K. It's funny after you got your ass kicked. This man pointed out the fact that I was gay, like, literally 14 times, bro. Like, 14 times with me. You always point out that you're gay on the radio anyway. It's not a problem saying the word gay, bro. You know what I mean?

Charlotte may always be gay. If you want to be homophobic, you want to be homophobic. You did. At the end of the day, you have a word gay, bro. You know what I mean? Charlamagne always means part of it. If you want to be homophobic, you want to be homophobic. You did. You have a little son, bro. At the end of the day, you have a little son, right? And the fact that he might grow up to be gay, you got to get that homophobic s*** out of you.

What are you talking about being homophobic? What are you talking? I don't understand this. He tried to use it as a weapon. I'm full of loving. All right, guys. Christmas is coming up. By the way.

Peace be with everybody. That was a great battle. Yes, Sean Stone's song Sounded very homophobic I keep telling you Y'all keep using gays And insults What are you

I don't understand You guys gotta explain If you're using gays And insults It's homophobic Why were you using gays And insults So using the word gays

Is an insult to people I want to put your Crash ass voice memo So people can hear it But I'm not gonna do that to you I'm not gonna do that To our listeners. It was homophobic, yes.

Whenever you use gays and insults, you try to weaponize gay against somebody. That's being homophobic. Goodness gracious. I tried to put them on the line so maybe they could piece it up and have a great holiday. That wasn't happening. All right, well, get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. Now, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and before I do that, I do want to say rest in peace to Papa Wu. And that's somebody that worked with Wu-Tang Clan from the beginning. He's family. And he just passed away. So rest in peace to Papa Wu.

Rest in peace, Papa Wu. Yes. You know, I used to work for Wu-Tang. So he definitely was a large part always on the road, traveling with them, holding everything down. So I saw a lot of the guys from Wu-Tang posting, can't believe you're gone. So hashtag Papa Wu, rest in peace. But we are going to talk about these Christmas songs and Mariah Carey with her number one song.

All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumor report. Let's talk Mariah Carey.

This is the rumor report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, congratulations to Mariah Carey. After 25 years, her song, All I Want For Christmas Is You, is number one on Billboard for the first time. Really?

So congratulations to her. It came out in 1994 on her album Merry Christmas. I would think that, you know, because I was looking at the Billboard Top Ten yesterday, and there was like three Christmas songs in the Billboard Top Ten. That would only make sense around this time of year, right? Yeah, she was like, she should do this every year this time of year. They do. They play it all the time.

It's just never number one. I wonder if it's because of screaming and stuff like that. No, all of that probably helps more than just radio play. Well, that's her 19th number one song. So congratulations to Mariah Carey. I know she was excited about it. I saw her post about it. So congratulations.

We need more black Christmas songs. I don't know why people don't make more Christmas-themed songs. That's why I like Little Duval's Christmas Trees. I have the remix to that. I sent you the remix last night. Yep, I got it. I mean, that's a remix. It's an added verse from an artist that we all know and love.

We're going to get it on before we get about here. Yes. All right. Now, let's talk about, I know you all have been following this story. I'm sure up here you've seen Quality Control's CEO, P. Lyra Galore, who he has a child with, has accused him of being physically violent toward her and now he is responding to those claims he denies that he was physically abusive to her and she said that it also happened while she was pregnant with their baby girl he says that her motives for suing him and making

these abuse claims are suspect and he says it must be and this is in documents that TMZ obtained he said it must be questioned as to why she allowed him unsupervised visitation with the party's daughter and waited so long to file this monetary claim. And so we'll be letting you know what's going on with this story. But Lyra Galore, on her behalf, is not backing down. She's filed a motion on her own asking the judge to force him to pay for her attorney, which is already $19,000. And she wants $20,000 right now from him as well. And she also has photos of her alleged injuries that she says that she suffered because of him. All right.

Now let's talk about Nick Cannon. He wants 50 Cent to come on Wildin' Out to catch some of that smoke because I don't think Eminem will ever go on Wildin' Out. I can't see him taking the bait in this. You know, they said Nick Cannon's been playing the diss song that he did about Eminem over and over and over again at Wildin' Out, back to back to back to back to back to back to back. And so 50 Cent responded.

He said, Nick, so that's it? Nobody cares about my diss record? No, nobody cares, LOL. And he posted a picture of Nick Cannon wearing a bikini top and some pants. Can you see 50 Cent going on, wilding out? I can see 50 on wilding out because 50 got a sense of humor. 50's quick-witted. I can see him going on wilding out before I see Eminem on wilding out.

Yeah, Eminem's never going to do that. I don't see 50 doing it either. All right. I think they'll be too scared of 50. I think a lot of them would be too scared of 50 to play with 50. Now that you say it, you're right. I don't know, because Nick Cannon said to 50 on Instagram, since

Masta is incapacitated, we cordially invite you to come to the show MTV Wildin' Out and get his smoke, LOL. It's easy to say that behind a phone and texting and emailing and posting on social media, but then when you say that to somebody's face, it's a little different. Yeah, but Nick Cannon can't fight now. Don't get it twisted.

50 can fight too, but Nick, that's one thing people don't, but Nick Cannon can't fight now. Don't get it twisted. 50 can fight too, but Nick can... Nick, that's one thing people don't know about Nick Cannon. Nick can get busy. Play with Nick Cannon if you want to. Nick Cannon will ball your ass up and beat you like a drum, like he in drumline. Alright, well, we'll see where this goes next. Yeah, 50 boxes. It'll be a good match.

Wait a minute. Now, we don't want them to fight. I'm just saying that both of them respectively can fight. I didn we don't want them to fight. I'm just saying that both of them. You don't want them to say that. I'm saying both of them respectively can fight. I didn't say I want them to fight. I just said it's hard to say something. You got to say it in their face. You said. But I wasn't talking about.

You think I'm talking about the whole cast of Wild N' Out. I said they could fight. I'm talking about the whole cast of Wild N' Out. So you think they're going to jump 50? Chico, DC, and Carlos might jump 50. You think 50 is going to come by himself? You think 50 is going to come by himself? No, no, no. All right, now, let's might jump 50. You think 50 gonna come by himself? You think 50 gonna come by himself? No, no, no.

All right, now let's talk about... Nobody want them problems. Nobody relax. You guys, nobody's gonna fight. Whoopi Goldberg. Let's get out of here fast. On The View, here was another heated exchange that happened. This leads to some diss songs as well.

Now, they were talking about Donald Trump and the difference between Trump officials refusing to testify in the impeachment proceedings and Joe Biden saying he would not go under oath either. There was an exchange about that. And Meghan McCain was going on and on and on. And, you know, Joy Bayard was talking to her as well. And Whoopi Goldberg had to step in to calm it down. Listen to this.

My job here is not to litigate the ethics of it. I'm an ABC political analyst along with being a view co-host. My job is to analyze the politics of it. And I'm telling you, but I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about the people that are senators that are in the Senate. Here's what's happening now. We're going to show ever. Girl, please stop talking.

Please stop talking right now because you know what? No problem. Thank you. Thank you. I problem. Thank you. I won't talk to us this show. No problem. Okay. I'm okay with that.

We'll be good. I'm okay with that. And that was Sunny Houston. She was bringing up Bill Clinton's impeachment and saying that the Republicans who wanted to convict Clinton on perjury, but now they are quitting Donald Trump for abusing his power. It's very hypocritical. I mean, listen, that was very entertaining, but it's not productive.

It's actually kind of whack, because it's a show. Everyone on there has a different perspective. Everyone on there has a different point of view. You can't tell us shut up just because you don't agree. Because if Meghan McCain would have done that to Whoopi, people would be on social media saying she should be fired. And Whoopi might be demanding an apology. Right. I mean, I think it was hard because

Sonny was trying to get her point across, and Meghan McCain kept interrupting her while she was trying to say what she had to say. And it just, you know... I didn't hear that. I saw Sonny get her point out and Meghan McCain kept interrupting her while she was trying to say what she had to say and it just, you know. I didn't hear that. I saw Sonny get her point out and then when Meghan tried to talk, they was shutting her down. Yeah, that's because she was interrupting Sonny because Sonny was just trying to say basically

and the truth is, you know, you can't turn around and say that after you wanted to impeach Clinton for perjury and then Donald Trump's been lying and then you turn around and say, that's okay. It is hypocrisy. That is very true. The whole thing is hypocritical. It's very hypocritical how a lot of these people are putting party before country.

Alright, now, according to Meghan McCain, she's responded afterward and she said she was not behaving poorly. She was trying to show conservative perspective, but she said Sonny would not let her talk. Whoopi Goldberg said that Meghan McCain had been talking over people, and it is what it is.

Who else is conservative on that show? Meghan's the only one, right? Right? Yeah. Yeah, they need another conservative on there to balance things out. That's all. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee.

You know what? I want to shout out my daughter. Congratulations and shout out to my little baby girl, Madison. She got accepted to NYU. Alright, thank you, Miss Yeet. You know what? I want to shout out my daughter. Congratulations and shout out to my little baby girl Madison. She got accepted to NYU. Yes, congratulations Madison. And I know you're happy she'll be close by. Yeah, I'm happy she'll be close by. I'm just happy

that she's been doing everything that she needs to do as a young lady, as a young woman. She's been studying, she's been putting in the work, and the fact that she got accepted just means everything to me. So congratulations to Madison. NYU is a huge deal. I love you so much. And also, you know, I want to shout out because

Candy's daughter. Candy's daughter got accepted to NYU yesterday as well. Oh, so they're going to be going together? Yeah, they're going to be going together, which is crazy. I mean, they don't know each other, but I just seen that yesterday. They're about to. I love the fact that, you know, you got young black women that's working hard. I think one is I think she's doing more attorney and Madison is doing real estate, but I just love the fact

that both those young women are going to. I love it. Shout out to Riley Burris. Shout out to Madison. That means you did a great job as a father and Gia did a great job as a mom. That also means you got to stop dyeing your hair because you have a daughter in college now, so there's no way your hair could possibly be that black, sir. Let it flow. I'm not showing you.

I'm not showing you. Ah! You ain't got to dye today. Let me see. Let me see. There's no dye your hair could possibly be that black, sir. Let it flow. I'm not showing you. I'm not showing you. You ain't got to die today. Let me see. Let me see. There's no dying. Let me see. I'm not letting you see. Shout out to Kim. Last week was hand plugs.

You still got the hand plugs. There's no damn hand plugs, man. Let me see. You got a hat on for a reason. Either the hand plugs or you ain't dying. You got your hood on. Both of y'all got your heads covered. I know my limitations.

I know my hair line. I know my limitations. I can show y'all this. Let's see. I'm a grown ass man. You guys both have your heads covered.

I'm showing y'all my hair, man. What's wrong with y'all? Let's get it together, guys. Just let me see a few graves next year. That's all I'm saying. You got a daughter in college now. When we come back, Angie Martinez will be joining us. Yes, Angie Ma. For Front Page News, Angie will be here. So we come back, Angie Martinez will be joining us. Yes, Angie Ma.

For Front Page News, Angie will be here, so we'll talk to her. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, usually we do Front Page News, but this is bigger than Front Page News. Yes.

A couple of months ago, Angie Martinez got into a car accident, and we haven't really seen her since. She hasn't been on radio. She's been resting. She's been rehabbing. Yes, I've been in communication with her, and I know she's been really anxious to get back to work. So I know she wants to talk to us about coming back to work. All right, so on the line right now, Angie Ma!

Good morning! It's so good to hear your voice, Angie Ma. Yes, it is. You have no idea how happy I am to be heard and to hear your voices, too, man. You guys have been so good to me. First and foremost, how are you feeling? I'm feeling good. I feel like every day is a little better.

I feel like I'm going to have to work. Okay. When this first happened, I was like, I never really had felt pain like that before in my life. And I had a baby, so this was a different type of level of pain. You know what I'm saying? So when that happened, you don't know how you're going to deal. Right. And I was fortunate enough to have a conversation with Kevin Hart,

who just went through something similar. And he just gave me great advice about, listen, half of it is your mind. Right? You've got to get your mind right. You've got to do what you've got to do. Doctor tells you just take 10 steps. You take 20. You know what I mean? So I've just been really trying to have, like, a good attitude about it

the whole time, and we're moving forward, and I'm going forward. Man, we miss you so much, man. We miss hearing your voice. Man, I miss you. Now, I've been hearing Angie's been trying to come back to work for, like, the past month anyway. Yo, you know me, right? I know. I can't sit. Sit your ass down. It's like, Angie, relax. It's ticket time. I can't sit your ass down. Easy, relax.

It's the holiday season. Why would you want to come back here? We leaving tomorrow. Well, I'm not. No, I'm actually not coming back to the top of the year. I just wanted to call in and let you know what it is. I really took some time to really rehab and and heal and focus on me. So I ain't been on social media.

I haven't talked to nobody. Even some of my friends have been calling and I've just really been focused on getting better. So I miss everybody. I wanted to let everybody know I was okay. I wanted to tell everybody I'm coming back top of year.

I'm going to be back on the air January 7th. January 7th. Drop on a cool bomb for Angie Martinez. And Angie, let's be clear, it's also Capricorn season when you come back, right?

Well, it wouldn't even be right if I wasn't there for Capricorn season. And our birthdays come, and you know what I mean? I gotta be there for that. I don't want to see you in no parties now. It's a birthday. You gotta relax for a second.

I'm gonna take everything. I'm gonna let my body dictate how everything's going, but right now, I'm doing really well, and I feel good, and I'm happy to talk to you guys. I'm gonna be good. Good, good, good. Yeah, she's good.

Are you on painkillers and all kinds of other stuff? No, I got off those drugs as soon as I could because I hated them. They had me, like, medicated in the hospital for, like, three weeks straight. Oh, that's good. So you've been able to partake in some Coquito? A tiny bit. Like, Thanksgiving I had, like, a little half a Moscow Mule. And I've had a little red wine.

Okay. I've been really, whenule. And I've had a little red wine. Okay. I've been really, when I tell you I've been focused, I've been like trying to eat right, trying to drink a lot of water. You know, do everything that everybody says is what you're supposed to do to heal fast. So I've been, I haven't been over here taking shots of tequila or nothing like that. All right, don't worry. I'm not going to make you do anything you don't want to do, Angie. I know.

Angela hit me yesterday. She's like, yo, I heard you coming back. I'm like yo i didn't even say all that i just said i'm gonna come and hang out with you i didn't say nothing about no drinks and she was like look angela i need a minute but what do we do every time we hang out yeah right i'm gonna bring some green tea up here for us now now edge maybe some juices from the juice i got you i got you you made a video for you, a chair up video. I know. That was so sweet.

Did you see when I tried to rap your whole song? Yeah, I was really annoyed. You're so annoying. I was still on drugs. I was like on the crazy drugs. And even in my high state, I was like, why is he so annoying? He was like, turn it off. Turn it off.

Well, we miss you. We can't wait to see you back. Man, I can't wait, too. I'll be back. So January 7th is the day back. I know a lot of people have a lot of questions. I'll probably do a live that day, and I'll talk to everybody. I just want everybody to have an amazing holiday.

You know, I'm good. Thank you so much for all the love and the prayers and everybody there for holding me down like they have been. It's not just, you know, it took a lot of people to get me back. All the nurses, doctors, everybody that got me right. We love you and we miss you, Angie Ma. Can't wait to see you on January.

Love you, Angie. All right, Angie Ma. Have a great holiday. I'll be here January 7th. Oh, God. I'll see you then, baby. All right, Angie. Bye, guys.

I will shout to Angie Martinez now. So happy. When we come back, 800-585-1051. Let's talk about somebody else that might be coming back. Tekashi 6ix9ine. Now, Tekashi 6ix9ine is supposed to be released tomorrow. Maybe. No, it's all up to a judge.

Why do y'all keep spreading that false narrative? It's potential. I ain't seen no maybe. The lawyer got on Instagram yesterday and said that's not true. They don't know. That's what I'm saying. It's potential. That ain't seen no maybe. The lawyer got on Instagram yesterday and said that's not true. They don't know. That's what maybe means. Maybe he might be getting home tomorrow. They don't know.

That's what they are expecting and hoping. So we're asking, 800-585-1051. If Tekashi69 comes home, should we interview him? Should The Breakfast Club interview Tekashi69? It's a back story behind this. We'll explain when we come back. Right, but that is the question. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club interview Takashi Stixner? It's a back story behind this. We'll explain when we come back. Right, but that is the question. 800-585-1051.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this.

Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves.

What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go.

Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-a-stan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.

That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise

So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth,

gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Shalami Nagai. We are The Breakfast Club. So if you just join us, we're asking 800-585-1051. Now they're saying Tekashi69ix9ine will be released tomorrow. Yes.

And if he is released. They're saying it's potential. Potential, yeah, possibly. Because I got a call from somebody, I guess who's in 6ix9ine's team, and he asked me did I want to do a one-on-one interview with 6ix9ine. Correct. And I was like, no, I think if we did interview him, he should be on The Breakfast Club,

because The Breakfast Club was his two you know, two biggest looks. But I was like, you know what, let me talk to everybody else to see because I'm not too sure how I feel about that. Right, I got a similar call, and they asked me would I be willing to do it. I said, I don't think I want to do it. Tell me why you wouldn't do it. The reason is this, right? Now, you know, I feel like with Tekashi69,

I feel like he used his gang affiliation and all that to benefit himself. First he came out, he was allegedly a crip. Then he was allegedly a blood. And he was talking crazy all along for clout and for people to stream his music. And it worked. The young man made great music. He's actually a good kid. I sat down and spoke to him a couple times.

My kids, he's taking pictures with my kids. Great kid. But he used the streets and used gang affiliation to make himself hot. And then when it backfired, because, of course, you're not going to be able to use something without somebody getting in your pocket and doing street activities, when it didn't necessarily work for you, then you decided to tell on everybody that you was just riding on. All those hits that you allegedly did

and all those things that you allegedly did, now it didn't work for you. So now what do you do? You turn on everybody, you get released, and you're rewarded for it? I just don't necessarily think it's a message that I want to do. I mean, I don't want to promote to kids that, you know, you go wild and do some stupid ish, and then you just tell on the people you've done,

and then all of a sudden you come out and can put out records, and it's all cool. It's kind of like a drug dealer. You're a drug dealer. You sell drugs. Another drug dealer robs you. You can't call the police. Yeah, I mean, for me, man,

I'm not even necessarily the street aspect of it. I'll tell you why it is. For me, I don't think we should do it. When we sit down with someone, it has to either entertain or educate or possibly both. Would it be entertaining? I or educate or possibly both. Would it be entertaining? I'm sure it would be. It would be.

But I think you could absolutely send the wrong message. It's a lot of miseducation in that 6ix9ine situation. Like you said, Tekashi was out here wild and pretending to be a gang member. He was ordering hits on people. We told him he would either end up in jail or dead. He got hit with a bunch of charges. He went to jail. He snitched on everybody.

We all know that story. Now there's rumors he may be coming home. It doesn't feel like it's been any accountability on his part. And it would be irresponsible of us to empower that dysfunction. It's the same dysfunction that the label has invested money in. They're already trying to

set up interviews. And I don't want to be a part of any of that because it feels to me like the label is just trying to capitalize off this situation the same way they were trying to. Oh, hell yeah. They were capitalizing off him running around and wiling like the label is just trying to capitalize off this situation the same way they were trying to, they were capitalizing off him running around and wiling. And now they're continuing to capitalize off this kid's dysfunction. I think that's whack. Not to mention when I ask people why we should interview 6ix9ine

people's only response is because it gets YouTube views. That's not a good enough reason for me. Yeah, we pass YouTube views. We pass the needing of YouTube views or money. We don't need that. We're good. I was going to say, everybody's weighing in on it. Don't you want to hear what he has to say in response?

No. We talk about giving people a platform when you discuss them, and what about if he, there is a story of redemption here. What about if there is a lesson to be learned for people? You don't know what it is yet. Well, that's a good point. See, that young man has a target on his back right now, and I'm sure there's people who want to kill him. He needs to come home and figure out his life.

He needs to figure out who he is as a man before he jumps back into the character of 6ix9ine. Daniel Hernandez has to do some soul searching before he gets back into the character of 6ix9ine. And until he does that, I don't think I want any parts of it. So I do agree with Angel Lee on that aspect, because the label don't give a damn.

The label just want to grab him, put him back out there, get him to start making music again and start making some money, start getting some return on their investment. They don't care about Daniel Hernandez,

the person. Daniel Hernandez, the person, absolutely needs to hold himself accountable. He needs to take some responsibility for his actions

and he needs to figure his life out. This could be a good lesson for kids who are trying to go down a similar path. He's not the first person to have done this. He won't be the last. Well, let's see how he comes out. That's my whole thing because kids who are trying to go down a similar path. He's not the first person to have done this. He won't be the last.

Well, let's see how he comes out. This could be something. And that's my whole thing because, I mean, everybody changes when they're in jail at first. You know, you change. But now, when you get out and you can't do the certain things that you do, now we see how that really affects you. If you stand your ground and say, you know what, I'm a changed person, that old person wasn't me, or do you conform to, damn, I got to pay my bills.

I got to pay the security bill. Yes. I got to start doing this. Maybe he'll join Sunday security bill. Yes. I got to start doing this. Maybe he'll join Sunday service and he won't curse anymore. Yeah, right. Listen, I don't know how the young man's going to come home. I know that he's got 24-7, 365-day security. In order to do that, you're going to have to sell some records.

And guess what? I don't think people want no nice 6'9". No holier-than-thou 6'9". Okay? They want that wild-ass, crazy-ass guy that we knew before he went into jail, and I think that's eventually what he'll return to. But we don't know. We got to see.

All right, when we come back, we'll take your calls. All right, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Tekashi69. He's supposed to be released tomorrow. That's what they're saying. Well, they're saying they don't know. They're saying that there's a potential. It's completely up to the judge.

So right now, there's a possibility. He's supposed to be sentenced tomorrow. Sentenced tomorrow. They believe saying that there's a potential. It's completely up to the judge. So right now, there's a possibility. He's supposed to be sentenced tomorrow. Sentenced tomorrow. They believe he will be released. So we're asking 805-85-1051 if he is released, should The Breakfast Club do his interview? All right, so let's go to the phone lines. We got Cray on the line.

Cray, good morning. It's Freddie P. Not Cray. Hi, Freddie P. Freddie P. It says Cray. But what's up, bro? What do you think about should we interview Tekashi69?

First of all, good morning to all three of y'all. First of all, yes. Secondly, I don't think y'all should give him the opportunity to come up there and give nothing, no parts of his story. Don't nobody really want to hear nothing he got to say in the first place. I don't even know what part y'all thought that it was cool for him to, I don't understand. No, no, he's a rat.

He shouldn't get the opportunity to come up there and say nothing. Okay. He doesn't want to come up here. He fears for his life, so they would want to do it at an undisclosed location. Nah, we'd have to do it here.

And I'm definitely not doing that. Nah, we'd have to do it here. Hello, who's this? It's King Mir. Hey, what's up, bro? We're talking. Should we interview Tekashi69? I think you should.

Charlamagne got some explaining to do and maybe a little, you know, working out to do. You know, Charlamagne set himself up for this one. They might want that one-on-one for that. Why don't y'all understand hyperbole? Or hyperbole? Hyperbole. Because when Biggie was out here saying he wanted to sleep with RuPaul over Escape, nobody cared. All right?

When Biggie said he would suck, you look so good, I'll suck on your daddy's. Y'all understood that as hyperbole. But when I say it, y'all want me to hold myself to that bet. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Cam from 757. What's up, 757?

We're asking Takashi. If he comes home tomorrow, should we interview him? Yeah. So you got him. Okay, thanks. All right. You're going to be lonely a long time, bro. I could tell he's a fan of Takashi. Use your words. He. Okay, thanks. Alright. You're going to be lonely a long time, bro. I can tell he's a

fan of Tekashi. He just said, yeah. Use your words. Hello, who's this? Yeah. Jonathan. Hey, what's up, man? We're asking if Tekashi comes home tomorrow, should we interview him? Man, I think y'all should. I'm going to be a man. First off, Charlamagne knows him

something off the bat. Right. That's how we got to start the interview. That's how people camp out. Y'all really want to see this gay porn, huh? That's what I'm starting to realize. I'm starting to realize y'all really want me to, y'all really want me to 6ix9ine penis.

Hey. I like gay porn. Hey, you got to be true to your word, man. No, I don't. Because it, no. The word of the day is hyperbole. All right? That's what that was.

We just learned that. Okay? No, I did not just learn that. I wrote two All right? That's what that was. We just learned that. Okay? No, I did not just learn that. I wrote two books. I'm a New York Times bestseller. The word of the day is hyperbole. Okay? You know what hyperbole is?

Nah, I don't. Hyperbole is when you exaggerate a situation because you were sure that the situation, there was no escaping it. All right? I never, I would, first of all, I'm not snuck in his a**. That's the moral of the story. Don't laugh and just say that. All right. You shouldn't I would, first of all, I'm not snuck in his ****. That's the moral of the story. All I have to do is say that.

All right. What the **** is wrong with y'all? What the hell is wrong with y'all people, man? Jesus Christ. You know those memes where it's like, nobody, nobody. It's like, I'll say ****. 585-1051. We're talking to Kashi69.

If he comes home tomorrow, should we interview him? That is the question. Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're talking Tekashi69.

Now, he might be released tomorrow. We're not sure. If he is released, should we interview him? Who's this? Yeah, this is Jeff from Chicago. Hey, Jeff from Chicago. You know, should we interview 69? Man, y'all interview him. I don't think y'all should interview him there

because, you know, all that stuff that's going on. But yeah, y'all should interview him though. I feel more safe and comfortable here than anywhere else. Well, yeah,

he said, his people said that he wouldn't want to do the interview here because he fears for his life. Yeah, it's probably not safe. But I,

I shoot, it's safer here than any location anywhere. But not if you, but everybody knows where here is. Yeah, but they don't know

when he's coming. They don't know when he's coming. They don't know when he's coming. They don't know when he's going. There's six, seven different exits and entrances in this building. Yeah, but everybody would be outside. See you coming in the building. They don't know when he's coming. You got to sign in to come upstairs.

And please believe, he's not coming by himself. He's going to have a full security detail team. I just don't think like we should, I don't feel like we should do it because it doesn't feel like it's been any accountability for the way he was out here wilding. Not only that, I'm sorry. I've had a great year, man. I don't want that negative juju on me. I don't want that negative energy around me. Everything is pretty good. Loving blessings.

What does this Port-A-Party guy say? Peace and blessings. Hello, who's this? Yeah, this is Ray from mine. What's up, bro? Tekashi69. If he's released tomorrow, should we interview him? Tekashi69, get interviewed tomorrow. No. Oh, my God.

I can't. But that's your fault. I can't. It's the way you word things. I can't. You know people out here take in information like that. Right now, people are going, yo, Tekashi69 is going to be on the birth card tomorrow if you get up. Oh, my goodness.

Hello, who's this? Sonny from Detroit. Good morning, y'all. Good morning. We're asking, if Tekashi69 gets released, should we interview him? I think you guys should be the first to interview him. Why? Because, is Charlamagne that you?

Yes, this is me. Uh-oh, here we go. Tell us why. Charlamagne, I need you to hit him with them questions. I need you to get at him. I need you to ask him those questions that most might not are afraid to ask him. Like what questions? My brother, I don't think there's anything left to ask.

Before he went into jail, we told him that he was going to end up in jail or dead if he didn't change his ways. We told him all of this was going to happen. Everybody told him that. Fat Joe told him that. The thing here is I think Charlamagne, you need to tell him in a different manner. I think you know a way to go around it. I think you know how to

not so much embarrass him, but he has to have a teaching moment. At the end of the day, he was a kid. He's a kid. He's not grown folks like us. He got wrapped up. He got wrapped up. The money came. It came so fast. He just couldn't handle it.

I just feel like it would be irresponsible to empower anything he got going on right now because the label is really investing in this kid's dysfunction. The same way they invested in his dysfunction before he went in, they're investing in it afterwards. And I want Daniel Hernandez to do some soul searching before he gets back into the character of 6ix9ine. And until he does that, I don't think I want any parts of it. You gotta understand from the label, they look at it like this.

When he was locked up, he's been locked up for what? The last year or so? His streams haven't gone down. People are still streaming his music. They're still purchasing and buying his music. I didn't see the Spotify thing of 6ix9ine. It's still doing good. It's not like he got arrested so people stopped effing with him. They're still streaming his music. So as the label

who doesn't care necessarily about our community, they're like, you know what? We're going to invest. We're going to get paid. We're going to make more money back. I'll be surprised if they don't put out an album in the next week. I just think there's a lot of interesting things that can be learned from this. We don't know what it is that he's going to say.

We don't know what he's learned. We don't know what he's going to be acting like. We have no idea. And maybe it is a story of redemption. Maybe it is a warning to other kids out there. Maybe it is. I to other kids out there. Maybe it is. I learned my lesson.

Maybe the letters that he wrote to the judge, he really feels that way. I don't believe that. I believe this is one of those times where you said something foul and you just jumped out there and said, I apologize. You want to get out. You want to get out of jail.

I'll say whatever I got to say to the judge to get out. But then it's who you are when you get out. Yeah, I don't know. I got to see. I mean, he's been through a lot right now. I'm sure that he's had a change of heart on some things. I can't see that you haven't. Yeah, but why do you have that change of heart?

Is your family threatened in danger? You're threatened in danger? But why do you have that change of heart? When you come out and then you can't feed your family anymore and you can't pay for your security, do you go back to... All of that sounds good until them shows ain't selling, until them screams go down and people realize they don't like Night 6ix9ine. Okay? All of that sounds good until them shows ain't selling, until them screams go down, and people realize they don't like Night 6ix9ine. Okay?

All of that sounds good. Then he turns back into the 6ix9ine that went in. But look, we got to see. What's the moral of the story? I mean, if he comes out tomorrow, we got to decide now. No, we don't. I'm going on vacation tomorrow. After tomorrow, I'm tapped out until January 7th.

So y'all can be up here by yourself talking to him. All right? I'm tapped out today. What are you talking about? Oh, today's your last day? Oh. I might be a little sick. Oh, you got a sick day?

We got a sick day. I was thinking that, too. I got a little scratchiness in my throat. I already did my vacation. I'm rested. Well, we got rumors on the way? Yes, let's talk about tips. Imagine you go out, you have an extravagant dinner,

it's $500, and you don't leave a tip. Who are they accusing this of? All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Hey, good morning, DJ Envy. All right, well, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Mariah Carey. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report.

This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. All right. So according to page six in the New York Post, Mariah Carey and her team, they were playing at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. And it's her All I Want for Christmas is You tour that she's doing. Now, here's where it gets tricky.

$500, right, in food. This was at Robert's Steakhouse in the hotel. Okay. Do you leave a tip if it's takeout? No. Now, a person is saying the chef prepared the meal with extra attention to make sure everything was perfect. It was a lot of food. It was lobster tails, strip steak, roast chicken, salmon, crab cakes, pasta, salad, spinach. The whole meal came out to $493.67.

The staffer handed over $500 and then took the $6.33 and changed. Well, God bless that chef for doing his job, but if it's takeout, I'm not leaving a tip. The whole point of leaving a tip is because of the service that you receive while you're sitting there. I'm not giving them a tip for takeout. Yeah, I'm with you. I don't give a tip for takeout. You know what's crazy? When I go pick up takeout or if I order food and it's a delivery,

I do leave a tip. Now, it might not be the same tip that I would leave if I sat down and ate. Usually, I leave like a 10% tip or something like that if I'm doing a takeout. But you usually use a tip for service, like when they bring your drinks, when they bring your food, when they clean up the table, when they're preparing the table. They packed up the bag. Now, I will say the last time I got takeout, I left a tip, but I didn't leave it with that

person. I pulled up to the Roots Steakhouse in Jersey, and the guy outside let me park my car in front while I was running in. So when I came back, I tipped him. Well, yeah. Yes. Well, yeah, that's... Yes. But, yeah, even when I go, like, to the Thai spot in Brooklyn and I get a call ahead of time and I'm like,

I'm going to pick this up, I always leave a little tip. Well, you're getting money. The rest of us that have to pinch pennies, we can't just be tipping when we get takeout. I got five kids. No, hurry up. I got three. Times is hard in the slums I'm from.

Y'all eating at Ruth Chris, though. Who ate at Ruth Chris? I thought you said Ruth's. I said Ruth's Steakhouse. Oh, I thought you said Ruth's. I said Ruth's Steakhouse. Oh, I thought you said Ruth Chris. No, Ruth's Chris. Ruth's Steakhouse is better than Ruth Chris. It is not.

Yes, it is. Well, if you can afford to eat there, you surely can afford to leave a couple dollars. That's all I had. That's all I had. I had to buy for five. All right. Now, Lil Yachty is talking about this Rolling Loud fight. Now, people saw this video, and you can see that there's some type of brawl that happened.

People say on the video, Yachty's the one who actually threw the first blow. Well, now little Yachty is speaking on what happened. Here's what he said on his Instagram. Clearly, it's only showing one half of the altercation. Basically, last night as I was leaving out the festival, a guy walked in the middle of my group of people and pushed me, screaming and all that type of stuff, you know what I'm saying?

Like, being very disrespectful. And so we said, you need to excuse me. And he's like, f*** that. You know, he's just being blatantly disrespectful in my face and causing a scene. After that, it doesn't show any of that. And I don't really appreciate that. I think that's kind of corny. You know, it looks like we're just picking a fight.

I'm not a problematic person. I don't just appreciate that. I think that's kind of corny. You know, it looks like we're just picking a fight. I'm not a problematic person. I don't just pick fights with people. Well, the problem is the footage only shows them beating up the young man. I tell you what, all the videos I saw from Rolling Loud don't make me feel like I'm missing nothing. Between Whack 100 and Lil Yachty, I am happy to be in my house having my little red cup kickbacks minding my goddamn business. These people are wildin'.

You can't even say it's just the young ones because Wag out there wildin'. Yachty out there wildin'. They just wildin'. Happy to be home. All right, now let's discuss love and hip-hop. Joe Button is clearly the one that is most talked about on love and hip-hop right now because ahead of the Love and Hip-Hop New York premiere, the two-hour premiere, they went

through old footage and since Santana actually got very emotional while watching footage of Joe Button proposing to her. It's so hard. I really wanted my family. Well, it's always emotional when you think about time and how it just goes by and it's been a year since this. I'm just, I'm sad and disappointed and it's hard when you really want. I'm just, I'm sad and disappointed and it's hard when you really want things to work and they're just, they're not working, I guess, on your time. I mean, at the end of the day, that's the father of my son and family is super important to me.

You know, it's different now, but I have faith in the man upstairs. Why is Joe Button doing Love & Hip Hop? Well, I'm not done with Joe Button right now because then Tahiri also responded, and she was saying that the editing was off on Love & Hip Hop because of this. My answer was, I don't know.

What does that mean? Well, they were asking her if she would get back together with him. This is what the clip sounded like. Maybe have mishandled some people. Okay, I'm glad that you're owning up to it then. You can say that. You grew up a little.

I gotta admit, it is nice to see Joe. He is looking like he's doing pretty well. Maybe he is a changed man. Would you ever think about getting back with Joe, buddy? I'm not sure yet, honestly. We need to hang out. How about that? I'm not sure yet, honestly. We need to hang out. How about that?

Because right now everybody's over here. We need to join the party. We'll speak when it's less going on. All right. I'll see you soon. She said editing is a bitch. Okay. That was never my answer,

but I guess that's what the world wants to see. Somebody answer the question for me. Why is Joe Budden doing Love & Hip Hop? Yes, at three times. Does he need the money? No. Does he want more fame? Like for someone who claims to be so anti-- industry and so against the machine, it all seems

very hypocritical for him to be on Love & Hip-Hop participating in Big Fish Entertainment and Mona Scott Young's storylines. I'm sure it helps with his podcast, which is... The podcast don't need no help. The podcast is booming. You know, maybe that helps even more. Or maybe Sin wanted to get on there

and he's doing it with Sin. I mean, we don't know. But then with Tahiri, too, I don't know. They be having Joe on Love & Hip Hop looking like a sad clown. Like, it just seems like a step backwards for someone who's positioning themselves to be a multimedia mogul. But there's a lot of people on Love & Hip Hop this season, too. I mean, Jim Jones is on there. I'm talking about Joe.

Joe Budden specifically. Mm-hmm. That's what I want to know. Well, ask him. You speak to him all the time. That is true. Yeah, tweet him and ask him. Tweet him and ask him right now.

We're actually working together next week. I'll ask him next week. Yeah, there you go. I'd rather do it on camera. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right.

Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, Solomon, who are you getting that down on? Katu. You remember the fan that got into it with Russell Westbrook at a game last year and he got banned? That guy, his name is Shane. We need him to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. All right, we'll get to that next episode.

Hold on. Oh, shoot. Oh, shoot. Calm down. Before we do that, let me shout out to my little baby girl. She's listening. She's six years old. Her tooth finally came out.

No snag or two. You didn't have to pull it out. We've been trying to get this tooth out for the last four days. She would not get this tooth out. She didn't want to eat nothing because the tooth was barbering her. She just texted me and said, Daddy, my tooth came out. That's crazy. You got so many kids.

They don't even know who about to get a shout out. Shout out to my little girl. Which one? Lundy Chu. Lundy Chu. Lundy Chu. All right. Now, go ahead.

Get hyped. Oh, yes. I keep telling you that I feel like we need to have more black Christmas songs. Correct. And my guy, Little Duval, created one. And we played this yesterday, right? Yes. But now.

Now. There's a feature that has been added to this record. Oh. Ghetto America's favorite auntie. Oh. Miss Monica. Hey. Drop one of Clues' bombs.

For Christmas trees. Featuring Monica. Little Duval featuring Monica right here on The Breakfast Club. Merry Christmas. Ho, ho, ho. Play Top of the Hour first? Yeah. All right.

N.V., Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Miss Calloway. Chantel Calloway. Creator of Rhyme Antics. Welcome.

Thank you. Now, what is Rhyme Antics? So, Rhyme Antics is the world's next great game. It's a vocabulary game inspired by hip-hop where you have to freestyle rap in proper English. We can't make up words? No, you cannot. There's no slang, no Ebonics. You can do all that, but you're not going to get points.

You're not going to win the game. So, it really is a vocabulary game that tests your vocabulary knowledge. Now, that's going to be tough in hip-hop now because I know this game is to promote literacy, but we love to make up words. I know. I know. But, you know, I thought it was really important to create something that paid homage to the roots of hip hop, which like the hip hop I grew up on was like, I'm an 80s baby. So the lyricist I grew up listening to always was spitting bars, using real words. Beautifulist. No mumbo.

Huh? The most beautifulest thing in this world. What about fabulous? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of that. But, you know, like I'm an advocate for literacy. I am too.

Yes. I agree with you on that. I agree with that because I do feel like a lot of times people, like even with their text messaging, they use acronyms. They don't write the full words out. So a lot of times people are missing out on being able to actually send out a proper email. Right. I think it's important to know how to use your vocabulary properly and then you can use your slang how you choose. But you have to be able to do both. Absolutely. Sure. OK. Give us an example. I want to see how this game works. Can I open this? Sure. Okay. Give us an example. I want to see how this game works.

Okay, so two teams battle each other, right? There's three levels of difficulty, easy, intermediate, and intellectual. The team chooses a difficulty level, and a card is read to you at random like this. So you three, all right? First three versus you? No, yeah, I'm the scorekeeper. So I'm just going to read you all the cards. And what I got to do from there?

And so you have to spit one bar, one line, one creative sentence. The last word has to rhyme with mine. So the object of the game is there is a bunch of words on the back of this card that you're trying to guess. And you got to do it within the time, right? Within the 60 seconds. Wait, it has to be a real song or we're making up our own lyrics? No, you're freestyling off top. So we got to keep going?

Yes. You have 60 seconds to try and guess as many words on the back of the card as possible. So how does this work? Now, what do I do? Turn it upside down? Yeah, and it's 60 seconds time. Okay.

But there is an app that you use that plays the music instrumentals. Ready? So the sentence is, the world is mine. Right. She just said my last vacation. I said my last vacation was so divine.

I don't eat swine. I like to shine. That doesn't all go together. Yes, it does. Divine, shining swine. Yeah, that was right. Yes. My house smells like pine.

Very good. I like to drink wine. My lucky number's nine. I am very kind. Hello. Well, you busted slow wine. Okay, right. Santa Claus snorts lines.

Ooh. I like to rhyme. No, that's not it. No, that's not it. No, that's not it. No. Rhyme does not rhyme. I got snorts lines. Ooh. I like to rhyme. No, that's not it. You lost. Rhyme does not rhyme with mine. Charlamagne can't wait for Tekashi 6ix9ine. No, that's not true. Is that true?

I don't know. We practiced that one. Okay, that was practice round. Okay. All right, let's go. Hold on. The time is still going. Well, you know, we're not playing officially right now.

But the team would have 60 seconds, and then they would battle the other team. So what's on the back? All the words. Let's see what words is on the back. Ain't no 6-9 on this. Okay, we did fine. Dine, fine, line. Signs, fine, shrine.

See, nine is right there. Wine, wine. Yeah. Divine isn't on there. Shrine or twine. Divine. So it really taps into all your cognitive, you know, your fluid intelligence. All right, so this is a good game for Red Cup kickbacks.

Not from the top. Not from the top. Just pull the one under that and go. Okay, all right. Sip this tea. All right. Hmm. All right, let's see.

Sip this tea. Oh, you just said, all right, let's see. You got it. Go. Okay. Everybody likes me. Oh, Kelly loves pee. See?

I can't play with you. What? I can't play with you? I can't play with you. What? I can't play with you. What? Getting out of jail is so heavenly. No. That's not right.

Heavenly does not know. No. If I can get rhyme and rhyme, Heavenly rhymes with tea. I mean, technically. No. How? Technically also rhymes with tea.

But it would be a debate between the teams if they would want to give you that as a rhyme word. Technically and tea also rhyme. Yes. Rhyme antics, y'all. give you that as a rhyme word. Technically, and T also rhyme. Yes. Rhyme antics, y'all. Okay, this is a little harder.

So, like I said, there's three different levels. Easy, intermediate, intellectual. This is intermediate. Intermediate. I want the clout. Ooh. So make sure you shout me out. You see the double one I did?

I always have sex. I'm never in a drought. No doubt. Stay away from Charlamagne. He got gout. Whoa. Okay. When I go fishing, I like to catch trout.

Oh. Hey, I'm from Charleston, so I might balk somebody in their moat. No, in Charleston, that's Geechee. No, that's not true. In Charleston, the way I talk, moat might come out moat. Okay. Get out of here. That would be a debate.

I'm happy I don't pout. Mm-hmm. Because that's never the route. Very good. So that's how you play rhyming. There you go. I need to know more, though, because I really don't know

what rhymes with clout. What's on the back of that? We said all of them. Oh, about, doubt, drought, out, pout, route, shout, snout, spout, trout, gout, kraut, mout. Mm-hmm.

Mout was not on there. Yes, mout. Mout was not on there. Yes, it was. Mout was not on there. Because I would have had a good one for that. Now, why a game? Like, that's not a hustle you see a lot of people getting into, especially black people. Why a game?

Like any invention, I developed this game out of a need. Me and my family, we were just really tired of playing, like, taboo and catchphrase every holiday game night for like 20 years, you know? So I'm a hip hop head and it was an idea that sat in my family for like seven years. And every time we got together as a family, we really wanted to play it and the kids especially wanted to play it and so um I really started uh investigating the game industry and I saw that one there was no game that was themed in hip-hop and then that every new game that had come out either mocked an old idea or um it was kind of just like it had no educational value um I wanted to do something that just, you know,

added value back to the culture, and that was educational because education is very important. All right, we got more with Ms. Calloway when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm a young CEO, sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Miss Calloway. She has a new vocabulary game that's out right now.

It's called Rhyme Antics. Charlamagne. How'd you get it off the ground? I know you started, you did some crowdfunding, right? Yeah, I mean, I did everything. I've pretty much mastered every single phase of entrepreneurship. So I moved here in 2015 with just my prototype that didn't look nothing like this. It looked like really Caribbean colors.

It was terrible. From where? From Boston. I'm from Boston, Mass. And I was in the middle of rebuilding myself, self-development, because I had gotten into some big trouble. And I was just like, what can I do to just be great again? And so I started developing the game. I left a very comfortable situation in Boston, and I moved here with nothing.

I came here with $150. I was staying in one of the worst shelters in the Bronx. And from there, I just got myself a job. And then in three weeks, I had two jobs. And then from there, I've just been hustling, grinding. So you got arrested for shoplifting. That was the trouble you were in? Shoplifting? Thank you, Abbey. Man, they playing you, Chantel.

That's what it says. They giving you those little light crimes. They giving you those little light crimes like shoplifting. I'm great. I think big. I don't, you know, shoplifting. I think big. Yeah, I mean, stupid me.

I did some dumb shit. I did. I got arrested for bank robbery. Geesh. Was one of those leaving no bank robberies? Yes, but I definitely am very guilty of making a very poor choice. And you paid your debt to society. Absolutely.

And I mean, I think I have a redemption story that should I want to use to inspire others. You know, you can really change your life through self-development and redirecting that energy into doing something positive. And the thing about criminals, most criminals are great masterminds in entrepreneurship and they're entrepreneurs, really. But they're just their energies focused in the wrong way. You know, so I moved here and I discovered this amazing accelerator program. It was called Defy Ventures. I heard of Defy Ventures. Yeah.

I used to help promote Defy Ventures. So Defy really changed my life. Really? It was crazy. I was looking for a job, and I saw a Craigslist post, and it was like, entrepreneurs with criminal history, we need you. That's great. And I was like only in New York would some

shit like this exist. You know what I'm saying? And so I moved there and they taught me just like you know like equity and shares and creating a most valuable product and pitching and I won from that I won three pitch competitions I just won another pitch competition

like three weeks ago in Boston. What is the art of the pitch? Well, you know, less is always more. You have to have something very short and to the point, but it has to be very impactful. And you have to the people, the investors have to

learn very quickly what problem you're trying to solve. I would honestly say that this product is completely unique. There's nothing like it. So I kind of got lucky. But there's still millions of ideas that haven't been created yet that people, if they get creative and think, you know, they can come up with something dope.

You have to be definitely passionate. This is year nine for me. So I'm passionate about hip hop and that's what's kept me going. And I'm passionate about, you know, teaching and education. I just, I want to make the world aware that there's a serious literacy crisis that's going on that is not even getting paid attention to, you know what I mean? I see it when I play the game with kids and with adults, it's like technology is really corrupting our cognitive functions at an alarming rate, and there's a lot of data out there coming out now about that,

and it's just really important that we promote reading culture within the household because that's where it starts. I can believe that. Where can people pick up the game if they want to purchase the game for Christmas? So the game is available online, and I'm also in about 45 retailers. Camp is my biggest one here

in New York. Camp has five stores now. Union Square, there's one in Brooklyn. They just opened one in Dallas. And then my other biggest retailer is Newberry Comics, but it's available at many stores. You can go to the website and it's available online and Amazon.

RhymeAntics.com. And Chantel is right about the literacy, too. 82% of black students and 77% of Hispanic students are not reading proficiently. It's a national emergency that people really aren't paying attention to. So anything that can help increase literacy in those

spaces is great. It might be a good partnership with the libraries. I work with the New York Public Library as an ambassador. We have this book club where we're starting with the middle schools and the high schools just to get people to read more, which we just kicked off a couple of weeks ago. But something like this, I think kids would be

interested in coming together, even in a library setting, to do something like that. It's like you have to meet kids where they're at. You have to, you know, engage with them in a way that's exciting. You know, like traditional books is not exciting for them anymore, unfortunately.

That's why Audible's so big. It can be if it's the right presentation and the right... Sometimes things that you have to read in school are different than things that you would read and be interested in outside of that. So sometimes we're you have to read in school are different than things that you would read and be interested in outside of that. So sometimes we're being told to read these books in school that doesn't represent who we are, what we're interested in. And then it makes us kind of turned off, I think, from wanting to pursue other avenues.

Right. And the brain has just changed, too. I just think if you make the decision to have a child, you're making the decision to also be a teacher, like for life. You know what I mean? You have to educate your child outside of the school. You can't depend on that solely. So it's something that really has to be looked at within our community. Well, before we get about it,

let's play one more time. Okay, go. One more card. Hold on 60 seconds. Go to the hard joint. Play the, what's it called? Intellectual? Intellectual.

Go to intellectual. I love being black. Because anything else is whack. I love being black because black don't crack. And we don't cut anybody any slack. And we always on track. And all black men are

I'm a follower. I run with the pack. All right. And if you come up to us, Ron, you might get smacked. And we never slack. But you might get an asthma attack. They always give me flack. Because you're not black.

I am black. No, you're beige. You're white. And I got a big s***. Ew, all right. Come on, y'all. Oh, damn. Should have said that after I said,

I think all black men are snobbish. We're coming out with the adult dirty version next. Adult dirty version is next for sure. But yo, yo, get Rhyme Antics. Yes, get Rhyme Antics. It's the world's next great game. It's super fun. It's good times. It's a drinking game. It's an adult party game. It's the world's next great game. It's super fun. It's good times.

Oh, he had a rough night last night. Jason Derulo walked through here earlier, and he's been talking about Jason Derulo and the little short, short pants he's been wearing. And because of that, he's been all over the place. You know, they had to CGI Jason Derulo's print out of the Cats movie that he just did. Now, Jamos knows that.

You know that. They said they edited it out. I'm not talking about men's penises for the rest of the year. Thank God. Thank God the year's almost over. Every time I talk about men's penises, they go viral for some reason. So I'm just going to keep all men's penises to myself. We believe that.

I know. I did that on purpose. All right. Get that clip, Dan. I did that on purpose. All right, sure. I did that on purpose. All right. Get that clip, Dan. I did that on purpose. All right, sure. I said that on purpose. Yeah, all right.

Whatever. I did. I did. I said that just not on purpose. Oh, yeah, all right. That was a slip, I'm sure. But let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Netflix documentary.

Kevin Hart has a documentary coming out December 27th, and it's going to be all about his life, what's been happening. Don't F This Up is what it's called. And they did put out a two-minute trailer.

understand there's a lot that you don't know all right in addition to that he even addresses the whole cheating situation that he had and here's that part addresses the whole cheating situation that he had and here's that part. Kevin was forced to complain about cheating on his wife who was pregnant by the way. You publicly humiliated me. I just kept saying how the f*** did you let that happen? When you're truly f***ed up, some anger that you're holding on to, you're gonna let it out. These are the moments Where you realize That you're nowhere near where you need to be Yeah, I'm watching that day of

I just know it's a six-part documentary series. So, yes, we'll have time to watch that for sure. I think we on it, too. I could see that. All right.

All right, now, Mark Curry has an issue with Steve Harvey. Apparently, the two of them are getting along. Mark Curry's a comedian, right? Yes, Mark Curry's a comedian. He was on Fox Souls, the Mike and Donnie show, and Mike Hill asked him about this, quote, feud between the two of them. Well, Steve stole my material on his show, so I had a beef on that. When he was on his bulls**t talk show he had,

he did all my Halloween material one Halloween. I'm watching that. Somebody called me and said, man, homeboy doing your material. So he did my whole Halloween run. And I know he didn't think of it. This is true stuff that really happened to me. And so my thing is you don't have to do that, homeboy.

You made enough money, bitch. I don't know what he's talking about. He wasn't direct enough. I guess there was some type of... You know what? I gotta... And everything I think you can find, right? So I want to see what the Halloween show he did was, and then I want to find which one Steve Harvey did and see

if it's the same thing. I'll tell you one thing. When you speak that plain, nobody can misconstrue you. Okay? We know exactly why Mark Curry has people Steve Harvey. Alright. Now I saw that Charlamagne and Tank, speaking of speaking plainly, had a back and forth on social media. And Shade Room picked it up. Now,

this was all because in the past, as you know, when Tank was on lip service, he said this. He's not a liar. He just lied twice. Doesn't that make you a liar? No, because I've done construction a couple times, but I'm not a construction liar. So let's say a guy sucked a d*** one time.

Jesus Christ. Does that mean that... What does that mean? He sucked a d*** once, right? And then he's like, I'm not sure if I liked it or not. Let me try it again. Let me try it again. Let me try it again. And then he says, you know what? It's not for me.

Don't like the taste. But it doesn't mean he's gay. Now he posted Charlamagne writing, just don't do it twice with the laughing emoji. And Tank said, you tried to clown me for having an opinion when the whole time you were committed to the act. No judgment here. Just want to know how you feel after and if you'll need a second time to really process his freedom. And then Charlemagne responded,

pleading guilty and cooperating is not beating your case. Furthermore, why are you entering this chat? Yeah, why did Tank jump in this? Because he's doing the math. Because he said two times. Let's calculate how many times was Charlemagne. Let's be clear.

Tank was being serious when he was on lip service. I was using hyperbole. I was exaggerating let's play the first one if takashi 69 beats this case i'll suck his d**k you're taking it all out of context no no let me let me you're taking it out of context what i said before that was takashi walks around telling people to smd all the time that's what that came from let's go to the second time yes that penis will do that to you man that's twice let's go to the second time. Yes. That penis will do that to you, man. That's twice. Let's go to the third one. Let's not move on from your meat. Was that all you?

Alright, so three times is the charm. Let's go to the fourth one. I'm just going to keep all men's penises to myself. Let me ask y'all a question. What's the problem, though? Nothing. I'm just making sure, because it sounds to me like y'all trying to weaponize gayness, you homophobes. No, we're trying to think about what you and Tink were talking about in the shade room. No, we're just talking about comments that you made.

Y'all sound a little homophobic to me. I'm just being honest. You sound a little homophobic. You said I'm gay, so what? You just sound a little homophobic. Just making sure. Just talking about some of the comments you made. We're just talking about you and Tank's back and forth, basically.

Tank shouldn't have jumped into that conversation. DJ, who cares? Yeah. Alright, who cares? Yeah. All right. Well, let me answer the yee and that's your rumor report. I still feel like Gatenis is being weaponized against me.

No, not at all. We just, you know. Are we sure? Highlighting some of the things that you say. Don't make me call the alphabet, boys. And girls.

I'm serious. Are y'all done? No, you done. Are you finished? Are you done? I keep saying, I'm Angela Yee and that's your rumor report.

Y'all sound like y'all want to smoke right before the holidays. I'm good. I'm great. You have all the penises to yourself. All of them. Ooh, insulting me again? You said it.

Wow. It's homophobia. Did he say it? I don't know. This homophobia is so crazy in this room. It's so thick you can cut it with a penis. What? This is crazy.

How you cut it? You know what? Forget it. I'm not playing with you guys today This is crazy. How you cut it? You know what? Forget it. I'm not playing with you guys today. All right. Thank you for that rumor report. Up next is the People's Choice Mix. Get your request in right now.

You know what? Forget it. It's the Breakfast Club, damn it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We's the Breakfast Club, damn it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you missed it earlier today, Angie Martinez checked in. She got into a car accident, and she's been out for the last couple of months.

When this first happened, I was like, I never really had felt pain like that before in my life. And I had a baby, so this was a different type of level of pain. You know what I'm saying?

So when that happened, you don't know how you're going to deal. Right. And I was fortunate enough to have a conversation with Kevin Hart who just went through something similar. And he just gave me great advice about, listen, half of it is your mind. You got to get your mind right. You got to do what you got to do. Doctor tells you just take 10 steps.

You take 20. You know what I mean? So I've just been really trying to have, like, a good attitude about it the whole time. And we're moving forward. And I'm going forward. Man, we miss you so much, man. We miss hearing your voice. Man, I miss you.

You know, a lot of people were commenting on my hair and saying that my curls are coming back. My hair is getting long, and you really put me on with Hairfinity. I didn't put you on no damn Hairfinity. Yeah, the hair vitamins, I was taking that, so my hair is really growing, and then I was using what you use, the Infinite Edges Serum from Hairfinity. I had nothing to do with me. I was using that on vacation, and I appreciate it. If they want to cut a check, maybe I might try it, but I ain't got no.

I'm good. My edges is good. My hair is good. My curls is good. So you're trying to tell me you're not using Hairfinity. I ain't got no. I'm good. My energy's good. My hair's good. My curls are good. So you're trying to tell me you're not using Hairfinity. I ain't using no damn Hairfinity. Goodness gracious. I don't know anything about Hairfinity. I gotta do a hard

segue right now. We gotta take a hard left. Hey, yo. I wanna salute to Kyle Sanchez. I don't know who Kyle Sanchez is, but she's 5'5". She's 150 pounds. She has short black hair, brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a blue short jacket, a white sweater, blue jeans, and black sneakers. I don't know if you've heard this story yet, but she was walking with her mother last night in the Bronx around 11, 20 p.m.

when a beige-colored four-door sedan pulled up on them, and two men got out of the vehicle. They grabbed Carol and pushed her 36-year-old mother to the ground, and they took Carol. The individuals wanted for questioning are described as four adult males in their 20s with dark complexions and wearing dark clothing. This story is heartbreaking. If you watch the video, it's heartbreaking. And they want anybody with information in regard to the identities of these males or information of the incident itself, they're asked to call Crime Stoppers

at 1-800-577-8477. You can also submit your tips by logging on to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-8477. You can also submit your tips by logging on to the Crime Stoppers website at nypdcrimestoppers.com or on Twitter at nyptips. And, you know, everybody can remain anonymous, but you've got to get bum-ass people like this off the street, man. All right, and this was in the Bronx. It was in the Bronx, man. It was in the Bronx, and her name again is? Carol Sanchez.

What they did to that young lady is horrible. I don't know what the hell is going on out here. I don't know if this is sex trafficking. I don't know what it is. I don't understand that sex trafficking hustle. You got to be a cold-hearted sociopath to even be on that type of time. But I really did go in the office and pray for Carol Sanchez. Man, I can only imagine what her mother's going through.

So please, if y'all have any information on the whereabouts of Kyle Sanchez, please report it and get those bum-ass dudes off the street. Alright, well leave us on a positive note. I don't want no positive note. I guess I got a positive note is this, man. A hero, okay? A hero

is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles. OK, so if you want to be a hero today, how about overwhelm, overcome those obstacles in the street and get on Crimestoppers and talk about what possibly happened to Carl Sanchez. If you know something, say something, man. Breakfast club, bitches. We don't finish or y'all done.
