Y'all just took over every... Wake your punk ass up. This is Chris Brown. I've officially joined the Breakfast Club. Say something, mother... you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you We'll be right back. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:18:12 We got a special guest in the building. One of the funniest, smartest, I know, but boy, this man dangerous. What you mean dangerous? You got a gun on him or something? Corey Holcomb. What's up, y'all? Corey actually thinks Barack Obama is gay. What?
Starting point is 01:18:25 Well, he speaks up for gay rights more than he speaks up for black people. Do you disagree? I don't know about that. I don't want to put y'all on the spot, y'all, but I don't dislike Obama as a man. I just wish he would come out with it and let it be known. Because, like, when he gave the one kid, Jason Collins, all that dap for coming out. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:48 I mean, come on, man. So you think he should stand up for us niggers? Should have given him dap for being black. I think he should definitely, especially if you're a black president, you need to speak up more on what's going on with the injustices that's happening out there on the street. That's interesting because Michael Eric Dyson had a whole take on that as well, though. He said, Michael Eric Dyson said that when you're black,
Starting point is 01:19:09 you have to speak up less for black people. Oh, you feel like that. Because that's what they expect you to do. Well, I don't know if that's how you do it. That's not exactly how you worded it. No, what's going on? This is what it is, man. Most people are in a situation where if they say
Starting point is 01:19:23 what's on the heart, you can be in trouble with your job. And nobody wants to be out of work. You've been busting your ass for years, so it's really a cold game the way they got it set up. A lot of people are trained not to speak their mind about certain things. And what could you do? Because I don't want to get you fired, but at the same time, there's a lot going on where we, in my opinion, we can't really worry about that anymore. Hold on, that's what Michael said.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Michael said that Hillary and guys like Bernie could do more for black people because if they go in there pushing an agenda for black people, it won't be looked at as, oh, you're just doing that because you're black. Because let's keep it real, Obama had a lot of resistance within his own... Like, they wasn't going to let him just be the black president. They wouldn't pass any bills
Starting point is 01:20:05 he was trying to possess. I feel like sometimes when things happen, I feel like, well, Barack should be standing right there. And he's not then. You'd be like, but then he's our president.
Starting point is 01:20:11 This word president, that's imaginary. I mean, he's scared to say what's on his mind about everything. Look, the guy gets arrested in his own house for burglary. I forgot that guy's name.
Starting point is 01:20:23 Some educated man. And Barack has some beer gathering at the White House with a police officer. You know what I'm talking about? Oh, yeah, when they drunk on the lawn and drank a beer. Yeah, after that what? The officer who arrested that man in his house, the black man. He should have had to be with the man who got arrested. Well, I'm just saying, it's like, that let me know right there.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Barack set the example of weakness. You're going to have a beer at the White House with this cop who arrested this man in his house for burglary? Come on, man. That's weak. That's weak. And I don't expect everybody to say what I say, but I'm my own boss, so. Corey, if you were president, what are some of the first things you would do? I would try to separate black people from
Starting point is 01:21:06 the rest of the world, especially the ones here in America, so we can get ourselves together because integrated in this society, I don't believe we'll ever get ourselves together. You want to segregate ourselves? Yeah, man, because we need to sit down. We need to have this ultimate group meeting. Like, hey, leave that alone.
Starting point is 01:21:22 Let's begin, start from scratch and build our thing up. That's just my opinion. Now, Corey, sometimes I go on Worldstar, and I don't want to be around these niggas. I get it. I get it. Listen, man, I go back home.
Starting point is 01:21:33 I'm going back home to Chicago this weekend, man, and I know what you're saying. Because even though these are my people, these are my cousins, it's rough. But we can't turn our back on them because people like us, man, we're in a position where we got a voice. You're right. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:21:48 I was proud of you. You went on that show with the one girl. Oh, Tommy. Tommy Loren. Yeah, on the Blaze. What up, Airhead? You were trying to explain to her who the Black Panthers were, but she didn't like what you were saying.
Starting point is 01:22:01 Even though mine, I was dealing with facts. She made the truth into her feelings. Right. You know what I were saying. Even though mine, I was dealing with facts. She made the truth into her feelings. Right. You know what I'm saying? I was like, so you're just going to act like he didn't say this? You're going to act like the Black Panthers are a terrorist group because who told you that? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:22:15 It's like, in this society we live in, man, I'm just saying, man, somebody's got to be bold enough to stand up and say what it is. And if it's me, if I get blackballed, I can handle it because I'm a hustler. I'm going to find a way anyway. I always say this about Corey. I'm like, I don't know how Corey get all the TV looks he get. God must be with Corey. I'm going to tell you what it is, Chalamet.
Starting point is 01:22:36 It's a lot of people who think like me. Yeah, absolutely. I'm crazy. I say a lot of wild, out-of-pocket stuff, but they can see through the madness and they give me opportunities. It's kind of like a lot of people think like Donald Trump. I was going to of wild, out-of-pocket stuff, but they can see through the madness. And they give you opportunities. And it's kind of like a lot of people think like Donald Trump. I was going to say that. So you might like Donald Trump because he's honest, too.
Starting point is 01:22:51 He's speaking from the heart. And a lot of these guys, they don't have what it takes to speak from the heart. Whether it be somebody who's speaking negatively or positively, when you're speaking from the heart, I think people recognize that because the truth is attractive. But we, you know, we avoid the truth just because we want to stay politically correct. And bottom line, keep our jobs. You don't care for abortions too much either.
Starting point is 01:23:16 You give girls hell when they get an abortion. I'm a real hypocrite when it comes to abortion. Why is that? Because he'll send you to get one. Yeah. Oh, boy. But I can't go into the abortion clinic no more because everybody knows me.
Starting point is 01:23:27 How many times have you gone in? He'll be on Instagram like on Snapchat. I see Corey Holcomb at the abortion clinic. I stopped counting. The abortion clinics, man, everybody wants to take selfies now. You don't want to take selfies with that Planned Parenthood sign behind you. It throws off
Starting point is 01:23:44 everything you're trying to do. That is true. It's funny. I went to the doctor the other day just to get my annual checkup. And I'm like, man, I'm in the doctor's office. People are probably going to think something's wrong with me. They'll lie. I'm like, I'm just trying to have a regular... But I did think about that. This one girl who I went to the abortion
Starting point is 01:23:59 clinic with back in the day, she was mad because I got a lot of attention at the abortion clinic. She was jealous. You were taking pictures with people? Yeah. She was sitting there looking like this and I was taking selfies back then. That's an awkward time. She's getting an abortion and you're taking selfies with other people waiting to get abortions.
Starting point is 01:24:15 That's an awkward time to take a selfie. I think the worst selfie would be right after she comes out of the recovery room, get that picture with her. What if she would have said, I didn't know you was this poppin'. I'm going to keep it. That's crazy. She comes out of the recovery room, get that picture with her. What is she going to say? I didn't know you was this poppin'. I'm going to keep it. Dang. That's crazy. Well, let me tell you something about wisdom.
Starting point is 01:24:31 Wisdom is very important when you're dating. You have to date women who need you. And I'm not talking about need you. Need you in a way like, oh, I could do without right now and wait for this child support check. There's a lot of girls out there where if they're pregnant and you dangle some money in their face, if she real broke, you don't really need to dangle a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:24:52 It was this one girl. I knew she was starving because, you know, I went to her house and I saw the poverty. Crazy. I saw the poverty. You don't make you feel bad. What did poverty look like? It was pretty bad.
Starting point is 01:25:04 That couch with the dip in it. Okay. You know, that TV that's still big in the poverty. I saw the poverty. What did poverty look like? It was pretty bad. The couch with the dip in it. Okay. You know, that TV that's still big in the back. You still got the big back. But it don't make you feel bad, all that money you had to spend. What? I don't have a lot of money like that. I'm broke.
Starting point is 01:25:15 Poverty don't turn you off, though? Poverty lets me know that I have bargaining chips in this situation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's one of your rules. What's your number one rule? Don't give hope to nobody you're doing better than? Well, I'm saying if you date these girls that do not need your little $500 you offer, you're in trouble. Deal with girls who need you, man.
Starting point is 01:25:31 You're in a better position, man. My goodness. All right, keep it locked. We got more with Corey Holcomb when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Happy holidays. Wishing you and your family the very best this holiday season from all of us here at The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:25:46 The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Shalameen Nagao. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building, comedian Corey Holcomb. Now, Yee, what was Valentine's Day like for you? Valentine's Day is the worst holiday in the world for everybody because couples argue unless you kiss ass all day.
Starting point is 01:26:09 Like, women expect you, even though they know they not your real girl, they expect you to call them on Valentine's Day. And I think that we need to have, like, a class in college for fatherless chicks who think they're supposed to get a call on Valentine's Day. I don't appreciate the side chicks calling on Christmas, you know, being phony. I just want to wish you and your family a merry Christmas. You're trying to take my family from me. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:26:34 What is this? I'm just saying. Now, we had T.K. Kirkland up there, and he was talking. He actually said Kevin Hart wasn't funny. And he said all comedians know that. Yeah, I don't want to take him out of context. He said that Kev's not funny on the stage. He said he think Kev's funny in movies, Kev. And he said all comedians know that. Yeah, I don't want to take him out of context. He said that Kev's not funny on the stage.
Starting point is 01:26:47 He said he think Kev funny in movies, Kev funny on TV. He said he just don't find him funny in the stand-up community. Right. I mean, just keeping it real,
Starting point is 01:26:53 it's a lot of guys who are very envious of the homie Kevin, man. That's a fact. Kevin has found a way to become Superman out here in the game and it's a lot of guys.
Starting point is 01:27:02 It's more than one of them, bro. It's gotta be more than one Kevin Hart. That's what I'm saying, man. It's more than one of them, bro. It's got to be more than one Kevin Hart. That's what I'm saying, man. It's like a lot of comics chase other comics' careers. Oh, I'm supposed to have that. No, where's yours at? That's what I would say if somebody was talking bad about Kevin,
Starting point is 01:27:14 especially TK. TK been around the block. He had a lot of opportunities. And, you know, he'll never say, I blew a lot of opportunities, being cutthroat. I mean, the guy was at Eddie Murphy House and did scummy things. You know what I'm saying? Oh, he made it all that up here.
Starting point is 01:27:27 That's what I'm saying. It's like, so what do you want? Everybody who talks to you is going to talk to you like this. You know what I'm saying? I got to watch you. You know what I'm saying? If he said that in front of me, I would take up for Kevin. That don't mean I dislike T.K. Kirkland because T.K. Kirkland,
Starting point is 01:27:44 he's talked bad about me before, but I'm not going to see him. Hey, man, I heard you talking bad about me. I walk up to him, man, what's wrong? What did I do? Because I think TK Kirkland, talently, is a pioneer. Incredible. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:27:56 You can't never take away. He was the first man I heard call women bitches on stage. I was like, is he getting away with this? Call them a bitch and then make them ask questions. Yeah. They're not even offended is he getting away with this? Call them a bitch and then make them ask questions. Yeah. They're not even offended. They want to learn,
Starting point is 01:28:08 why am I a bitch? And then chant for them after. Yeah. You tweeted out, pick one. Rich fat bitch who wear flip flops a lot or broke bad bitch
Starting point is 01:28:16 with five kids in the pussy hang like a Jordan tongue. Why is that your choice? Pick one. Where were you? Well, sometimes you have to make choices like that.
Starting point is 01:28:24 What's your pick? You should be at those spots. Where were you? Have you ever done a show make choices like that. What's your pick? You should be at those spots. Where were you? Have you ever done a show in Flint, Michigan or something like that? There's not a lot of good choices, man. And I'm not drinking the water. I'm thirsty and thirsty. Too soon.
Starting point is 01:28:36 Too soon. I'm double thirsty in Flint. Hey, Flint, I'm joking with y'all. Yeah, please clean that up. Now, you also said keep your side in a position where your woman kind of remind her that he leaves you in the streets and holds it down at home. Prioritize your
Starting point is 01:28:52 hose. Right. I mean, a lot of guys who I know who got money, they have done things for their side chicks that I feel like is what you should never buy a side chick a car. I don't care how rich you are. That's insane. And I know some guys who got money, so they just buy a girl a car. That's stupid.
Starting point is 01:29:08 You taking her out the game. They get them cars. Some guys have had the same side chick for like 20 years. That's right. Some girls are better as side chicks. But I know we need to put a salary cap on side chicks. What about being a side dude for you though? Of course, everybody wants
Starting point is 01:29:23 to be the side dude. You want that. I want to be the side dude to somebody that got some money. I don't want to just be some side dude for some regular ass girl. Well, it depends on what that regular girl can do. There's some girls out here with amazing, I'll call them convertible tonsils. They tonsils just go
Starting point is 01:29:40 back. Like convertible. I like your top 10 things not to do in dating. I like number four. Always lie about the number of previous sexual partners you've been with. Always. Because nobody's ready for that. Who asked somebody that? Everybody asked about the body count. Really? I feel like people don't really
Starting point is 01:29:56 ask questions like that. People still do that? You ask women how many people have you had sex with? Just to make conversation, yeah. Sometimes you get interesting answers because girls never want to tell the truth about how many people they've had sex with, so to make conversation? Yeah. Sometimes you get interesting answers because girls never want to tell the truth about how many people they've had sex with, so why should I? I just think the best answer to that is
Starting point is 01:30:11 it's not really something I want to talk about. But that's arrogance. You could say that to a dude and get away with it because he still want to smash. There's some girls where if they said that, you'd be like, bitch, I'm gone then. And I automatically assume you a hoe. How many guys you slept with that you don't want to talk about? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:30:26 I've never had anybody ask me that. I pray for you because I know you just get so many phony guys and it all sounds good. No one has ever asked me that. When was the last time a dude said, bitch, shut the fuck up to you? Never. Nobody has ever in life said that to me. You are missing out, man. You've never been in love.
Starting point is 01:30:43 But can you imagine if you were like an attractive girl with a job like this? Nobody's ever going to keep it real with her. Never. Until you get broke down and older. Then all of a sudden dudes are going to be like, bitch, how many bitches you slept with? But right now, you don't have to worry about that, babe. You're safe.
Starting point is 01:30:58 And I would never ask a guy that. I would never be like, because I always assume that guys don't even probably really know. Do you know how many girls you slept with? No. Right, so. You stop counting. After you slept with about 20 girls, you don't even keep up with it no more.
Starting point is 01:31:11 Yeah, it's all a blur. And you think you remember all of them like you could in your head. Anybody I slept with, if I saw them, I would know them. Really? Anybody I slept with, there's something about looking down on somebody with sweat dripping in their hair. Because I know guys who would be like, man, I feel like I slept with that girl, but I'm not sure. I can't remember. Oh, those guys have Alzheimer's.
Starting point is 01:31:29 I don't know. I'm never going to forget nobody I slept with. What do you think about Manny Pacquiao's remarks about gay people? That's how he feels. Listen, man, let me tell you something about that whole gay thing. I make jokes about gay people. And anybody who takes the joke seriously like I'm a bad guy,
Starting point is 01:31:47 I don't know what to tell you. There's so many things out here to joke about. I'm not going to not take being gay out of my arsenal. Repertoire. I mean, come on, that's not fair. I've got to make jokes about it. I've seen you tell them they're going to hell though now, Corey. No, I've never said that.
Starting point is 01:32:01 Never? Yeah. I don't have that. But you know what? I never said that. Never? Yeah. But you know what? I'll say that. How about? Because sometimes people will play back things that I said on my 5150 radio show. I'll be like, damn.
Starting point is 01:32:13 I went, damn, damn. Let me cool out on that a little bit. You know, when you're heated and you're thinking of a joke, sometimes you can go too far. But, you know, everybody who's been around me, I think they get it. I'm not a bad guy. I'm not a bully. But if you are gay, I may crack a joke about you, and I don't think you should be mad
Starting point is 01:32:33 because I'm not going to treat you bad when I meet you. I treat you bad once I have established you're treating me bad or I think you're a bad person or something like that. You have gay friends, right? I got gay friends. I got a gay cousin. Yeah, there like that. You have gay friends, right? I got gay friends. I got a gay cousin. Yeah, there you go. That's the homie.
Starting point is 01:32:48 That's always the past. And we talk about each other all the time. What does he say about you? I tell him the bathroom stink whenever he come out. And I was like, don't put your rags in the hamper.
Starting point is 01:32:58 Don't put your rags in the hamper. You crazy. You throw your rags out. I'll buy new rags. I actually think that's part of equality, though, because if you're gay and you want to get treated You crazy. You throw your rags out. I'll buy new rags. You're crazy. I actually think that's part of equality, though, because if you gay and you want to get treated equally, you got to get these jokes just like anybody else would.
Starting point is 01:33:12 That's right, man. I mean, all that sensitivity. This one dude said, do you know people commit suicide? I'm like, if you commit suicide because somebody cracked a joke on you, I mean, what is somebody going to do? I can't walk on eggshells the whole time I'm around you. I mean, I will if I feel like there's repercussions from, you know, somebody saying you
Starting point is 01:33:29 killed him, then I won't talk about him, but if I can get away with it... Okay, so this is the conversation. He committed suicide because of your jokes, Corey. I mean, I feel like I should get credit for that. You know what I'm saying? I mean, it's not nothing to be proud of, but it's an accomplishment.
Starting point is 01:33:46 If you can drive somebody to death because of a joke, it ain't just got to be gay jokes. It can be anything, like dudes with bad hairlines, small penises. That always hurts guys. Guys, when you have a real small penis, because you know it's coming one day. I don't care how much she say she love you. It's coming. Wait, when y'all get in an argument.
Starting point is 01:34:07 Yeah, it's coming. All right, well, keep it locked. We got more with Corey Holcomb. When we come back, don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:34:19 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Comedian Corey Holcomb is in the building. Now, Charlamagne? What you really hitting them with lately? Like, what's the one thing that presses the button? Well, the main thing that presses the button are the illegitimate kids that a lot of guys have to be phony with and smile with.
Starting point is 01:34:36 Like, when you meet a girl and, you know, hey, little man, how you doing? I really go in on that. So, couples who are in situations where the guys had to be phony with the little kid when they first meet them, I've seen those arguments in the parking lot. Oh my gosh. I feel good about that too. I'm not even going to lie. Because I don't know
Starting point is 01:34:53 y'all and I touched y'all lives like that. You ever had somebody run up on you? Because I remember you used to tell a joke about the shout out to all you girls in here who get vaginal rejuvenation and make you right back the way it was before your uncle touched it. I say a lot of crazy stuff. Before your what?
Starting point is 01:35:08 Before your uncle touched it. I don't know. I say a lot of crazy stuff, but if I don't know you, why would you take it so seriously? If I call out your name, right? I'm just, these are jokes. It's a general joke. But what if the uncle really touched the girl?
Starting point is 01:35:21 My uncle really touched me. That wasn't funny. Well, why are you bringing it up now? That's like the unfair thing that's happening to Bill Cosby. Let me ask you, what would you do in this situation? Let's just say you were with a girl. Y'all broke up. She's famous. And then she tells everybody that she put fingers in your...
Starting point is 01:35:34 And she really did. Talking about Kanye West and Amble. Would you comment on it or do you ignore it? Well, you can't do nothing but ignore it. Because if you comment on it, you're going to feed into it. Especially if it really happened. Right. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:35:47 Because this is what happens. Nobody wants to say, there are some freaky girls out here who like that butt play. And some freaky guys that enjoy it as well. Okay, but this is what I'm saying. There's some girls who ignore this, and that is... Ignore this? No, I had one of them little finger pokers around me. My ass still nude.
Starting point is 01:36:07 It still got the wrap on it. So she couldn't break that seal like that back there. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? But it was still back there. And I had on white drawers. So I'm trying to give her every warning. She's down for the power. Because she knows what type of guy you are.
Starting point is 01:36:20 So no matter what, she be like, I put my finger in Kari. She can talk all that talk you want. Hey, and you know what? Girls will do that. Everything that you let them get away with, that they know takes away from your street cred. Now, you say you feel like it's not fair what's happening to Bill
Starting point is 01:36:34 Cosby. No, no, no. It ain't fair because you know, it's like, I don't believe Bill Cosby is innocent. Let me say that. But there is this statute of limitation law that they had, and I feel like they're just basically reversing the law to get at his ass. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:51 And I would say to Bill, you know, Bill, you was talking all that shit about black parents and what they need to do to raise their kids. Homie, you was out there getting that sleepy. The dope and grow. I tell you this, when you mess with girls who sleep, you can't sleep with them big girls because that leg, you know, when you let it go, you'll forget and get hit in the face. The big girl's leg fall quicker than girls who ain't that big.
Starting point is 01:37:14 That's what I have experienced sleeping with women while they sleep. Oh, my goodness. You still doing Black Jesus? Yeah, we getting ready to do season three of Black Jesus. Thank God. I love that show. See, let me tell you something about TV. I don't get a lot of TV,
Starting point is 01:37:26 but the stuff I do, fortunately, people watch. Right. You know what I'm saying? That's important. Because I don't audition like that, man. Out there in L.A., I'm not knocking anybody that auditions,
Starting point is 01:37:36 but I just can't do everything. I like this guy I am. You know what I mean? I make a living. I make a living with this guy, this character. And if I could pull it off on a TV show, that's a blessing. And Black Jesus gave me that opportunity.
Starting point is 01:37:48 You'd have been a terrible slave, Corey. Yeah, I probably would have been. I would have been smashing Massa White. I'd have been one of them dudes. Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's Corey Holcomb. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, man, thanks for having me.
Starting point is 01:38:05 Hey, Charlemagne the God here, and I just want to wish a Merry Christmas to all my credit card scammers out there. This is the season to find you a scammer friend so you can save some money in any major department store in America. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:38:24 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Hurricane Game. The Game. I'm just chilling right here. It was feeling like Destiny wasn't going to bring you here because first it was a bomb scare.
Starting point is 01:38:36 Come on, man. And you got stuck in the elevator for like 30 minutes. Y'all be having some crazy stuff going on in New York, man. It's like you wake up to bombs, scares, threats. You get stuck on elevators. It's hot. Like, it's crazy, man. I'm just happy to be here.
Starting point is 01:38:49 I'm really, really happy to see y'all. You know what I'm saying? Welcome back. What game we getting today now? You know what I'm saying? Who knows? You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:38:57 Who knows? I got a chance to hear Game's album. You did? Yeah, I heard Game's album. 1992. 1992. Al was dope.
Starting point is 01:39:04 Appreciate it. Album reminded me of mixtape days. Same rapping, same flow, but a lot of samples. Were y'all able to clear that many samples? Yeah, some of them we just, you know what happens with us is that, you know, with me and Wack, when we calling for the samples, it get a little bit easier to clear joints, man, because a lot of them joints don't be getting cleared, man, but we got them cleared. It's cool.
Starting point is 01:39:26 I'm glad because I think everything had a sample on it. When you did the diss record to Meek, I'm like, damn, Game, because we up here like, damn, Game is giving balls. I spent too much time at Daddy Daycare, man, and then, you know, people forget. I had to listen to that like 10 times to catch everything. I listened to that diss record at least five, six times.
Starting point is 01:39:45 Like, I always knew you could rap, man. There was no debate. But I'm like, nah, he's a rapper. In my group chat, my friends were like, did y'all hear the game? As soon as it came out, I was in the car. I was like, put it on now. Put it on now. You know what's crazy is that when I was writing it in the studio.
Starting point is 01:39:59 You wrote it in New York. I wrote it in New York, Quad Studios. And I couldn't wait to get here because I couldn't find a studio in South Carolina. And I was just like, I got to get to New York because I had these, you know, I had everything, you know, bubbling inside. And when I wrote it, I felt like I felt the same feeling when I was writing 300 bars. You know what I'm saying? So I knew that it was going to be something when I was done. Now, hold on.
Starting point is 01:40:19 One of the Dream Chasers said you had a ghostwriter. That's crazy because I'm always the guy that got a ghostwriter. It's like, you know what I'm saying? Everybody say, well, 50 wrote the first album and yada yada. Well, 50 didn't help write the second album and the second album still went multi-platinum and the game was dead. That's my favorite one.
Starting point is 01:40:38 And, you know what I'm saying? Shot the 50 because we chopped it up in LA and everything is all good. And then then you know i'm saying they say oh well he had a ghostwriter on the second album and then i did 500 bars after that it's always game got a ghostwriter man i'm in the studio with my homies you know i'm saying and i just got it off you know i'm saying that was my film you can't ghostwrite what game says you know i'm saying because only i talk and speak like that well on pest control was there anything
Starting point is 01:41:03 that you originally had thought thought you would put in a song and said, nah, you know what, this might be too far? Too far? I'm just asking because it went far, but I'm just rolling. She got a thing because there was a lot of things that I left out where I could have went really, really Charlemagne to God.
Starting point is 01:41:20 You know what I'm saying? I could have went there. You was pretty close. You went far, but I was like... You're talking about shaving somebody's mama's mustache. That was pretty, that was far. You was pretty close. You went far, but I was like... You're talking about shaving somebody's mama's mustache. That was pretty... That was far. And it's crazy. I don't like to do mamas. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:41:29 But I did go to the Gram. She did have a mustache, so I felt it was fair play. But like, what are some things that are off limits too far? I think kids are definitely off limits at all times. Kids. You know what I'm saying? They just... Kids.
Starting point is 01:41:42 Other than that, no one. No one. Yeah, nobody. Now, everybody thinks this is a publicity stunt to sell 1992. I've sold 25 million albums. I don't understand how that's possible. I don't even care if 1992 sale or don't sell. For the last 15 years of my life, I've been getting money here, there, everywhere.
Starting point is 01:41:59 I'm still rich. I'm not going broke ever. It's not about album sales. Albums ain't really selling like they used to. You're not even getting that much money. It's all in your advance. And then your back end, you know that gets chewed up by the label. And you really don't ever see that.
Starting point is 01:42:13 So it's not about selling albums. I'm not the label. I have a label. They got to make the money that they put out to, you know what I'm saying, produce the album and all of that. So I'm not making this record so that the label can make all the money. You know what I'm saying? So it ain't about that with me. this record so that the label can make all the money. You know what I'm saying? So it ain't about that with me.
Starting point is 01:42:26 These reports that the police never even questioned you. It wasn't. See, the thing about that is there's not paperwork for talking to the police and implicating someone. It ain't like I said, yo, he snitched on me, told the cops I had 15 bricks in the trunk and I'm facing 25 to life. No, they had conversations with police officers and implicating my crew and me about that. So when police came to my house the day before I
Starting point is 01:42:51 left to come on tour, they were asking questions based on what was told to them by these cats. And there's no paperwork drawn up on that. So why would Meek tell? What did he have to do with the situation? I don't understand. I really, and I'm being 100% honest, I really don't understand why he did that. So why would Meek tell? What did he have to do with the situation? I don't understand. I really, and I'm being 100% honest, I really don't
Starting point is 01:43:07 understand why he did that. I don't understand. Weren't y'all cool? Y'all were cool, I thought. We were solid. What happened was we was in the club. Soon as I seen him, I hadn't seen him in a while. He was on the house arrest thing in Philly or whatever, so I sent the bottle of rosé just from me to him over to him. You know what I'm saying? Like, welcome
Starting point is 01:43:23 back, you know what I'm saying, you know, to freedom. just being able to move around and uh you know i had told him when i was over there i'm like yo cats been getting robbed in la and they have every like cats been getting laid down for their jury and i told him so i told him i told him back up though yeah so i told him that um i told him that you know just watch your back and all that and when you leave don't wait to the club you know i'm saying end it like you know, just watch your back and all that. And when you leave, don't wait till the club, you know what I'm saying, end it, like, you know, get out of here a little bit earlier. So he took my advice. He did that.
Starting point is 01:43:50 And after that, Sean Kingston got robbed. You know what I'm saying? Because he's one of those type of cats that's like, fool, you see Sean Kingston, that's like an easy mark. You know what I'm saying? So Sean Kingston got robbed. We get out the club. Fifteen minutes later, Sean Kingston called me, bro, that's messed up.
Starting point is 01:44:04 You got me robbed. Meek said that you told him that Katz was robbing and that he should go. And then all of a sudden I get robbed and that's messed up. I said, look, I didn't get you robbed, dog. If you need help getting your jury back or you want to ask some questions, I'll help you. Let me get off the phone with you. Call me. I called Meek.
Starting point is 01:44:20 Meek said, man, I ain't tell that fat nothing. So I said, let me get them both on three-way. Got them both on three-way. Kingston saying, you did tell me. Meek saying, you, I ain't tell that fat nothing. So I said, let me get them both on three-way. Got them both on three-way. Kingston saying, you did tell me. Meek saying, you know what I'm saying? I didn't tell you. So I just hung up the phone, bro. I didn't have time to argue with them.
Starting point is 01:44:32 I let it go. Day before I'm leaving for tour, detectives come to my door asking me questions. You know what I'm saying? I told them, yeah, I ain't had nothing to do with that. Slam the door. And then I'm in Miami, in story. I get a little, I get off the Patron. I get a little, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:44:47 And then I said what I said. Because I had that bubbled up inside me. And that was it. So why now? People are saying if that happened in June, why do it now? That happened in June. Detectives knocked on my door this month, though. Before I left for tour.
Starting point is 01:44:59 I still compressed it. But then I got drunk in Miami. Flew off the handle on the mic. It said Meek Mill. And then it happened like that. But you had a record ready, though. You had a record that was on the album that you threw a little shot at him. Yeah, I did that before I left.
Starting point is 01:45:14 The record was just 92 bars. I put, you know what I'm saying, I went back and changed the last, like, I don't know, maybe 20, 30 bars before I left so that it would fit the situation. The record was already done, and I just added that to the end. So I didn't really get to go in like I wanted to, but then I'm glad that they did what they did over a beat that I love, which is that Young M.A. beat. And I knew, like, I wanted to just kill that beat
Starting point is 01:45:34 just because it's a hard beat. Hip-hop, you know what I'm saying? I wanted to get off on it. I'm glad they went and did it first so I can, you know what I'm saying, bring the funeral. So, Wack, you heard the conversation too, right? Well, you know, I'm always in the middle of the conversation.
Starting point is 01:45:45 Okay. The key thing to the whole situation was when a man could call you and tell you word for word what a conversation was between you and somebody else, you know somebody. You know he had a conversation. And that's what I was saying. You know what I'm saying? Now, what does Meekwood have just said?
Starting point is 01:46:01 You know what? All I told him was you did warn me to get out the club. You've been warned on it. Oh, good. It's like, you know, it's like this. Let's just say that, you know what? All I told him was, you did warn me to get out the club. You did warn her. Oh, good. It's like, you know, it's like this. Let's just say that, you know, Charlamagne, my man, you know what I'm saying? We've been rocking for over 10 years. It's like, if you come to L.A. for BET weekend, I'll tell you, yo, Charlamagne, if you need anything, holler at me.
Starting point is 01:46:17 Cat's been robbing. I'm your man. This ain't your pocket. I got you. And right there in that same conversation is, let's just say, I don't know, Chingy, right? And then Chingy gets robbed. Wait, that's random. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:46:28 Why did you say Chingy? I don't know, man. I looked at my man's headphones. They look blingy. Chingy. So anyway, I leave. Chingy gets robbed. And then you tell Chingy, yo, Game just told me to watch out.
Starting point is 01:46:42 And you got robbed. It's him. It would be like, why would my man? Why would you do that? Yeah, why would you rob Chingy? He don Game just told me to watch out, then you got robbed, it's him. It would be like, why would you do that? Yeah, why would you rob Chingy? He don't have nothing. Yeah, I mean, you know what I'm saying, man. Now, you took some shots at Nikki, so you want to smash Nikki. I thought you and Nikki was cool.
Starting point is 01:46:56 Me and Nikki don't become uncool because I want to smash. Nikki's whole thing is because people want to smash. That's what makes Nikki hot. You know what I'm saying? Is that people are attracted to her and that she look good and she doing her thing. And everybody, if everybody wants to smash you, you're doing a good thing. That's not a diss. All right, we got more with the game when we come back.
Starting point is 01:47:17 Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. What's up, y'all? It's Angela Yee wishing you and your family the very best this holiday season. From all of us here at The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got the game in the building.
Starting point is 01:47:46 Charlamagne? So when you see Sean Kingston on Instagram talking all tough and crazy. He's been calling everybody's phone trying to back down off of that. And the crazy part about it is I'm on tour and I'm in New York. But when I get back home and I can really lay the board out and really play how I want to play, ain't nobody going to be doing all that. Nobody's going to be doing all that. And then you got people out there that are going to say, well, I thought you were an activist. I'm not Jesse Jackson. I'm going to be Jesse Jackson for these people.
Starting point is 01:48:11 If it's some Black Lives Matter stuff that need to be done and I get up and I serve my purpose and use my platform to do that, then I'm doing that. But if somebody, you know, ratting on me and implicating my name into some stuff when I already got tried, when I'm already facing time and all of that for some other stuff, then that angers me and I'm off that Black Lives Matter for a minute. I'm angry about this situation. I'm going to do me. I don't got to be Jesse Jackson for these people 100% of my life. I'm human. I got feelings. It does seem like you had some reservations
Starting point is 01:48:37 though after I saw your interview with TMZ. Right, so you felt conflicted. Yeah. I find it a little difficult to be actually, you know, beefing with another African-American. On one accord, it's like, should be on this pot, you know, this Black Lives Matter push. And then on the other side, I got this beef with me going,
Starting point is 01:48:56 so it's kind of like I'm torn. It makes me look bipolar, man. Between, like, take all the media, the social media, all of that out of the equation. And, you know, me and Meek know what's up, man. Well, because I'm real. I do feel conflicted. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:49:10 I don't like what's happening with the, you know, two cast that got gunned down. I don't like that. But at the same time, I'm in my skin and my life, and I have a problem that I'm trying to address and put my attention to. Usually I post and I put the positive stuff out there. I say, you know, Black Lives Matter. This is messed up. What are we going to do now? Here it goes again.
Starting point is 01:49:28 But I don't want that mixed up with what's going on with this other situation. Because it looks, it's going to look crazy. So I just haven't said anything about it. Doesn't mean that I don't feel, you know, sad. I'm not saddened by, you know, two more brothers getting shot down by the police. And none of that. It's just that I don't want it looking crazy. So I haven't voiced my opinion publicly, and I don't have to.
Starting point is 01:49:47 Every time somebody visits you, they always bring up some male script. That's crazy, but it's never a video or never a picture. It's only the Photoshop joint that keeps surfacing around. Where did that come from? I mean, I know the G-Unit started it. No, a dude, nah, G-Unit started it, but a dude that my mom used to date that's a bitter dude that used to, my mom used to own a strip club. A dude that my mom used to date, this bitter dude, my mom used to own a strip club.
Starting point is 01:50:05 A dude that my mom used to date that used to help her or, you know, give a little fun, a little cheese to it, made that up talking, trying to get some money somewhere. And, I mean, that's crazy. You're missing the point. He was one of the strippers. Yeah, and he was working there. You know what I'm saying? But the thing about that ain't even about that.
Starting point is 01:50:24 The crazy part about it is that if your girl got some money, like your girl right now today, and she got some money and she want to give it to me and it's me and her, I'm stripping down. She about to see it. You know what I'm saying? How much you going to throw it? So it's all good. You know what I'm saying? It's all good.
Starting point is 01:50:38 And fellas and homies and dudes that's out there, let's not act like we don't change up and get not as hard as we are when we get in the comfort, you know, getting the ladies company and all that's out there. Let's not act like we don't change up and get not as hard as we are when we get in the comfort, you know, getting the ladies company and all that. I always say men act completely different around women. Come on, around women.
Starting point is 01:50:51 So let's not play. Everybody, you know, thugged out and gangsta and that's cool. But when you get around women or when you with a woman and y'all being intimate, you ain't doing that.
Starting point is 01:50:59 You moving them hips like you, you know what I'm saying? Like you in a 112 group or something, man. Come on, man. Now, Beanie Siegel, he caught a stray. Yeah, you know what I'm saying, like you in a 112 group or something, man. Come on, man. Now, Beanie Siegel, he caught a stray. Yeah, you know why? Look, let me tell you something.
Starting point is 01:51:10 That's why I did the freestyle. That's why, because that hurt my feelings. And I'm being 100% honest. I'm a Beanie Siegel fan. We all are. In high school, you know what I'm saying, Mac, Daddy, Young Scrappy, no, he ain't the OG gangster. Yes, I is.
Starting point is 01:51:23 Like, come on. That dude is coming at me for no reason. Like, I really rock with Beans. We all did. State property. You know what I'm saying? The La Familia. I'm like, this is Beanie Siegel, the legend.
Starting point is 01:51:35 Broad Street bully. I don't want problems with Beans. I look up to Beans. That's my homie. We done chopped it. We done smoked L's in L.A. Chill. We done did songs together.
Starting point is 01:51:43 I check on him. You know what I'm saying? When he got out of jail, he check on me. We talk about the's in L.A., chilled. We done did songs together. I check on him. You know what I'm saying? When he got out of jail, he check on me. We talk about the kids, life. And then all of a sudden, he in pictures, and he got something to do with a song, this and me, for no reason, without talking to me. You got to get it. And everybody know when it come to my brother right here, right or wrong,
Starting point is 01:51:59 I stand with him. Beans called me last night. Okay. I'm going to tell you what he said. The first thing out of his mouth was, I apologize. I was out of line. He never heard the 92 Bars song or Gang Mac Big Big and Beans Up. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:52:16 You heard it, right? So he said when he goes to the studio, went to the studio to write for O'Melly. You know what I'm saying? But I told him, I said, that's what he said. No, no, that's what he said. Uh-uh, that dude. I mean, you know what I'm saying? Dude is a street cat,
Starting point is 01:52:33 and in defense of O'Melly while I'm smashing him, he's not a rapper like that, so he might need a little help, and it's all good. You know what I'm saying? But I told Beans, when they called you to write, get on the song
Starting point is 01:52:41 and write his version of the disc at a dude that you rock with and you've been 100 with, you're supposed to slam the door on that. Like, I know it's Philly, you to write it, get on the song and write his version of the diss at a dude that you rock with and you've been 100 with, you're supposed to slam the door on that. Like, I know it's Philly. You got to hold it down. But Beans going to stand down on this one. That ain't my thing.
Starting point is 01:52:52 I ain't got to jump in that. You should have knew. He said, you know what, Chuck? You right. You know what I'm saying? You right. But he did it. He jumped out the window.
Starting point is 01:52:59 And it hurt my, I'm talking about it really hurt my feelings because I didn't want to go at Beans. But I had to. And I did what I had to do. I love how you did diss records killing these people, and you're also defending them now. It's right. It's one of, you know, because I try to keep it 100, man.
Starting point is 01:53:15 You know what I'm saying? It's very rational. I understand that if you don't have up-to-par rhyme skills, you might have somebody to step in. I understand that. So I can't say that it's, if he would have, if Beans wasn't there. You know what I'm to step in. I understand that. So I can't say that if he would've if Beans wasn't there. You know what I'm saying? It would've been that. So I understand. He need help.
Starting point is 01:53:30 So Beans not gonna retaliate. It's not gonna be another diss from me. I was kind of looking forward to hearing something. Nah, man. We talked to Beans. He talked to Beans. He put me on the phone with Beans and it's all good. And it's cool that it's all good because I can go back to respecting a legend and the way that he's supposed to be,
Starting point is 01:53:45 you know what I'm saying, respected. I didn't want to disrespect Beans, but I had to. And I even had to show Beans that you can get it too. You can get it too. Now, Meek also reached out to you as well. Did he reach out to you too? No, Meek's been reaching out to me through my family on the 60 side, Nipsey Hussle and Big U.
Starting point is 01:54:00 His whole disposition is now he understands why it happened as if he didn't know what Sean Kingston had did or said or whatever. You know what I mean? At the end of the day, I'm going to keep it real. Meek is living in Los Angeles, in Beverly Hills, right? That's great. He's living in Beverly Hills because there might be a slight problem,
Starting point is 01:54:20 a slight issue, you know, on the Philly side. So, he doesn't want that problem to go there. He knows we've got to come back home. Worst case scenario, he'll know, on the Philly side. So he doesn't want that problem to go there. He know we got to come back home. Worst case scenario, he'll get ran back to Philly, but he just left Philly. There's no way he don't want to be. And at the end of the day, it's hip-hop.
Starting point is 01:54:35 You said something, he said something. It's all fair game. Like, what's the problem? One thing you said, Wacky, I thought was interesting. You said that if Meek knew all this stuff about game beforehand, why do records with him? Why was you working with him? So then how do you bring it back around?
Starting point is 01:54:49 How can y'all be cool again knowing that that's how you're going to show? Well, nah, it ain't about being cool. It's not even about being cool. It's about just being able to be, you know, at the same festival or in the same club conducting your business and being able to go in and out without it being a problem. You say that now. What was the conversation like with Fifth? You know what, man? That's been a long time coming. I didn't expect it to go in and out without it being a problem. You say that now. What was the conversation like with Fifth?
Starting point is 01:55:05 You know what, man? That's been a long time coming. I didn't expect it to go like that. I went over there. I expected him to, you know, be like, you know what I'm saying? I don't know. Like, not how it was. It was too cool.
Starting point is 01:55:18 We chopped it up for about like 15, 20 minutes. It was no problem. Nobody got on edge on my side. Nobody got on edge on his side. I went over there. I walked straight through, you know what I'm saying, security. We was no problem. Nobody got on edge on my side. Nobody got on edge on his side. I went over there. I walked straight through security. We chopped it up. We held a dap the whole time. We was
Starting point is 01:55:31 as close as I am to this mic. That was defensive. I'm not letting go of your hand. We both go with everybody's arms. We definitely did that. I know he was thinking like, yo, he good. I don't know how his left is. I was thinking like, yo, if I feel like, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:55:48 Let me tell you why it was bad. Because Monster's standing behind game and I'm standing behind 50. So either way it went. It would have been bad. It would have been bad. It was going, yeah. You know, it's going to be a two-on-two if it go anywhere. But we chopped it.
Starting point is 01:56:02 At the end of the day, me and him couldn't even explain to each other where it went where it really went wrong and it had been over 10 years and it was like we couldn't we couldn't even explain to each other what happened you know what i'm saying we just know that we was young and we was angry and you know i'm saying shots got fired but we it was all good and we we it up, and that ain't necessarily say that it's going to be a junior reunion or we're going to do a song, but we solid. And just like he said, so if me and Fifth is in the same club, my side ain't on edge, his side ain't on edge. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:56:37 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got the game in the building. Now, everybody knows y'all get down, fighting, whatever it is. But they was giving you flack for squashing the beef with Thug and Dirk. Yeah. So how do you pick and choose which ones you? Number one, when I ran into Dirk, it was at a Rick Ross thing.
Starting point is 01:56:54 You know what I'm saying? And we chopped it up. And some people don't understand that in L.A., I could have smashed. I really could have. It wasn't like I was in Chicago. And if I was in Chicago, I would have been vulnerable. You know what I'm saying? It's like if I go to Philly, I'm vulnerable.
Starting point is 01:57:08 But we was in L.A. I chopped it up with Dirk, and he was 100 about everything. And then I was at fault because I just jumped in because Tiger called me and needed help. So I just jumped in on some West Coast OGs. Game training to go. So again, I was like, hey. You told him that. So again, so again, so again, you told him that what?
Starting point is 01:57:28 You told him that? Hell yeah, I told him that. So again, I was at fault, so I understood that. He wasn't pressing the issue. I wasn't tripping,
Starting point is 01:57:35 so we squashed it like that. As far as Thug, Thug told me, yo, I look up to you, you know what I'm saying? You the big homie, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:57:42 You the big blood, like, I don't have no issues. And again, I jumped out the window for Wayne. You know what I'm saying? You're the big blood. Like, I don't have no issues. And again, I jumped out the window for Wayne. That's my man. And it's still my man. It's always gonna be my man. That's, like, my dude. And so me and Thug Squad, they did a
Starting point is 01:57:53 shout-out for my kid's birthday. You know what I'm saying? Like, and that was big. And my son don't know the beef with Young Thug and Game. He really appreciated that, so that's where that went. So you can't be mad at Cats for taking the man approach when you're asking on Instagram and in the comments for us to cease, and then when it ceases, you want to say,
Starting point is 01:58:13 oh, they copping, please, or they squashing, but then if we go shooting, then, oh, y'all dumb. Like, come on, man. But you're aware, though. You know it wasn't about nothing. It wasn't about nothing with either one of them. No, Charlamagne. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:58:22 The best war fought is a war without casualties. Period. Because at the end of the day, we're all somebody's children. We're somebody's fathers. Somebody's husbands or whatever. And like on my watch, because I come from the casualties, I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure it goes the other way because it's too easy for me to do the other thing.
Starting point is 01:58:44 Yeah, because even with the Stitches dude, y'all didn't mob on him. He approached y'all. I don't even know where dude came from, but he went out like a light. You know what I'm saying? You guys got him a lot of attention, though, because nobody knew who he was. We don't care about that habit. Habit. Hey, yo, if you want attention for getting slept on the news, habit.
Starting point is 01:59:03 What happened the other night in Miami? Because I think he said that. He was trying to take credit for that. Look, let me tell you what happened in Miami. Number one, we don't have cars in Miami. We don't have vehicles in Miami. We on tour buses. When we get off the tour buses, we got car service, you know,
Starting point is 01:59:17 provided by, you know, Headliner Mike, whatever, to get us to or from, you know, SUVs. They came through and shot up some cars that wasn't our cars. When we wasn't there cars when we wasn't there. We was halfway through Atlanta when we woke up to the news that game cars got shot up. It's like media mixed with a bunch of crazy stuff. Nobody shot at my car. I don't even know what that was.
Starting point is 01:59:37 So you don't feel like you were targeted in that. If it wasn't our cars and it wasn't where we was at, cars don't bleed, man. You wake up at 6 o'clock in the morning, go shoot, it's an empty car. Like, what's your mission in life? What is your mission? That's your mission? Because you knew nobody wasn't going to be sitting in their cars at 6 a.m. in the morning,
Starting point is 01:59:53 and you don't even know who cars. You just shoot Nick. Like, come on, man. What do you think of Nipsey saying that you and Meek are just playing bad leadership? I talked to Nipsey about that. I told Nipsey that you're doing exactly what I would do if I was you and you was me in this situation. It shows growth. It shows that you mature.
Starting point is 02:00:08 And that's dope that you did that. But I'm not on that. I'm on this. And he understood it. And you know what I'm saying? That's my little homie. I've been with, like, I've rocked with Nipsey ever since I rolled my window down, took Nipsey demo, and actually listened to it. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 02:00:21 So it's all love with Nipsey. That's my brother. That's my homie. And I respect his position. He did right. He didn't do wrong by saying that we should be on that. I just, I wasn't on that. So you think you and me, does it have to come to a fist fight?
Starting point is 02:00:34 That's what I would like to happen. That's not gonna happen. That's not gonna happen. Nah, fist fight's not gonna happen because he's already... He's already letting it be. I mean, you work out all the time. I don't think that's really fair. He's already letting it be. It ain't even a fair thing. time. I don't think that's really fair. He's already let it be. It ain't even a fair thing. It's just a man-to-man thing.
Starting point is 02:00:47 If you got a problem with a man, he got a problem with you, it's all good. It's better than us whipping out guns and somebody dying. We ain't got to do that. But you are. You look like an MMA fighter.
Starting point is 02:00:56 Like, come on. Did Nikki reach out to you at all? Like, come on. Nikki? Take my picture down off the... No. No, but it... Like, Nikki should just stay out of it. She in her lane
Starting point is 02:01:05 doing her thing. She's an amazing artist. You know what I'm saying? And I got, you know what I'm saying? Love and respect for her. I'm sorry I had to drag her into this. And you know what I'm saying? It was a minimal drag. Right. But she wasn't disrespected, you know what I'm saying, at all. I went and did what I had to do. It was a jab at him
Starting point is 02:01:21 to post the picture. Everybody knew it was from a video. It wasn't like it was a personal. I mean, it looked like a photo shoot or a video shoot. It looked like us somewhere in a hotel somewhere. You know what I'm saying? So it was all good. Where'd you get the information that he FaceTimed? I mean, we got everybody.
Starting point is 02:01:37 Number one, you heard that, you know what I'm saying? Like a long time ago, just in the know-how. But Safaree told me that. You know what I'm saying? So that's what it is. Now, what about the Kardashians? We were talking about this the other day. You don't want to have no friends over there, man.
Starting point is 02:01:50 You don't want no new friends. Number one, that's not going to stop. That's exactly what I said. Girls are still, it doesn't matter. That's not going to stop, man. But yeah, I mean, it's nothing. It is what it is. Was Kanye upset? Did he try to reach out? Nah, me and Ye, we solid, man. But yeah, I mean, it's nothing. It is what it is. Was Kanye upset?
Starting point is 02:02:06 Did he try to reach out? Nah, me and Ye, we solid, man. He don't never get upset. Not before Ye. And it was before Ye, and Ye understands what it is. But we made, you know, me and Ye made a thing to not bring up people's wives and stuff like that. And, you know, family, like, you know, just close family in a disrespectful, you know what I'm saying, manner.
Starting point is 02:02:26 So I ain't disrespect nobody. You're too honest, man. I just tell the truth. And it's all good, man. They good people, man. Kim and Khloe, they good people. I don't got no problems with them. I'm just saying my opinion. Now, what if one of them chicks come out and be like,
Starting point is 02:02:38 Game's snitching? I mean, I can't see that happening. I thought the third one was the mom. I said, if Game knocked down the mom. I thought the third one was the mom. I said, if Gabe knocked down the mom. I've never heard that. I'm looking at your body language and everything like, Dad, did he knock Chris off? I've never heard that.
Starting point is 02:02:55 All right, we got more with the game when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. What up, y'all? It's DJ Envy. Hey, I'm Angela Yee. And I go by the name of Charlemagne Nagata.
Starting point is 02:03:03 We just want to say happy holidays from all three of us. All three of y'all. It's DJ Envy. Hey, I'm Angela Yee. And I go by the name of Charlemagne the God and we just want to say happy holidays from all three of us. All three of y'all. The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got the game in the building. So where does the beef go from here?
Starting point is 02:03:19 We gonna go outside and we just gonna figure it out. I can't say it's over. I can't say I don't have a problem with that guy. I can't say nothing. I can't say I don gonna figure it out. I can't say it's over. I can't say I don't have a problem with that guy. I can't say nothing. I can't say I don't want to fight. I can't say nothing. I'm here with y'all explaining it from the root of the problem to what it is now
Starting point is 02:03:36 and I don't know where it's gonna go, but I'm gonna be here for whatever it is. What about Sean Kingston? Sean Kingston's fat, sloppy. Stop. He better stop playing. He better really, really, really stop playing. Yeah, because what he's going to do is, like, what he doesn't understand is when people hear that, we don't even have to say nothing. Certain people are just going to react.
Starting point is 02:03:55 And I don't think he's understanding that. What we've been doing is making a bunch of calls. You know how many people call, like, you know how many people call, like, real, real hood that want to go. You know what I'm saying? At Cats, and we telling people, chill. Like, chill. Like, I'm going to figure this out. Me and Whack, we on the road.
Starting point is 02:04:12 We going to figure it out. This dude's pulling up at addresses, like, sending us pictures of gates. Yikes. And I'm like, nah, it ain't that. We going to chill. We going to figure it out. Let me eye handle it. And when I get home, I can really sit down
Starting point is 02:04:25 And balance out everything, connect the dots And what Cat's gotta stop doing Stop thinking you gon' come to LA And you gon' call the powers that be on me You know what I'm saying? You not calling, flipping nobody on game in LA It's not happening Even though the gangs is all, you know, separate
Starting point is 02:04:41 And the leaders is all You know what I'm saying? Even though everything is all separate Stop thinking you gon' call and get poor soul. You know what I'm saying? Even though everything is all separate, like, stop thinking you're going to call and get me in trouble. Like, you know what I'm saying? You're not. It's not happening. The L.A. politics is crazy, man.
Starting point is 02:04:52 Somebody better chill out. Whoever housed that in. That's what I'm saying. Hey, yo, I'm just being 100% honest. Like, in L.A., it's real tricky. I got your address, Sean. You know what I'm saying? And the chick you staying with.
Starting point is 02:05:05 You better chill out. No, it's Pat's pulling up sending us pictures. Oh, Sean. You know what I'm saying? And the chick you staying with, you better chill out. It's cats. No, it's cats pulling up, sending us pictures. Oh, my goodness. That's Nikki address? Like, we'll go.
Starting point is 02:05:10 Oh, that's not even worth it. That's not even worth it. I'm on my immediate crew, and I'm like, yo, relax. You know what I'm saying? But y'all don't want to go too far, though, because y'all want to fight,
Starting point is 02:05:17 but then you see O'Meally posting up Uzis, and then somebody... That better stop. That was crazy. That better stop. That was very incriminating. O'Meally got to respect the fact that his man on the West Coast.
Starting point is 02:05:27 Let me tell you something real quick, and it go like this. I ain't been to Philly in like eight or nine years. I ain't been to Philly. Philly, it's not one of those towns where you got to go through if you're a hip-hop artist. Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Atlanta. These are where the awards are. These are where cats move out of their towns and come live and do that. A lot of cats is moving to L.A. and living in L.A.
Starting point is 02:05:47 I can manipulate L.A. positively or negatively when I want to. So it's like you live in L.A. You got to be in L.A. You got to come to L.A. even if you don't live in L.A. I don't ever got to go to Philly. And I understand that if I'm in Philly that I'm vulnerable. That's not my hood. That's not my area.
Starting point is 02:06:04 I don't control it. I don't know too many cats from Philly. I'm out of my envelope in New York right now. I'm out of my envelope. I'm out of my comfort zone, my element. I can't boss up in New York and say I'm running Brooklyn or the Bronx or none of that. I can't do that. But in LA, Compton, South Central, California, the Bay, San Diego, I'm locked there and I can manipulate the streets if I want to, but I'm not a negative. I don't wake up and want to be negative. My only problem, this dude ran his mouth off on something that he shouldn't have for no reason when all I did was look out.
Starting point is 02:06:36 And my problem ain't with nobody. It ain't with Philly. I got love for Philly. My problem was with one guy, and it can stay between me and that guy. It don't got to be whack problem with his man Or his cousin problem No, my problem is with one man Let that man face me like a man
Starting point is 02:06:52 And let's figure it out And if that's a fight, cool If we talk and no hands are thrown, that's cool Let that man meet me, talk to me in my face And let's work it out that way We can do it like that You said he tried to call you. You didn't answer his call. I was hot that day.
Starting point is 02:07:07 I was hot that day. I was real hot that day. He did call my phone. I didn't have to Photoshop it. He didn't say it was Photoshop. He said that he called. Do we need to call Farrakhan? That's cool. Nah, I don't know who you need to call, but I'm out here. I'm, you know what I'm saying? I'm out here. I'm moving.
Starting point is 02:07:26 Charlemagne, say the gang. Don't get out of shape. Charlemagne. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate. I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the heat.
Starting point is 02:07:44 It's a breakfast club, bitch. Who's donkey of the day today? Yeah, it's donkey of the heat. It's a breakfast club, bitch. Who's donkey of the day today? Yes, donkey of the day is sponsored by Pure Hate and a slight concern for you idiot safety. It goes to all you people playing Pokemon Go. Okay, let me rephrase. All you people playing Pokemon Go and catching Pokemon in inappropriate places, okay? I hate to be the fun police, but Pokemon Go is going to be the death of some of you. You're going to die trying to catch a rat-tat-tat, okay? The worst
Starting point is 02:08:10 way for a grown-ass man to die right now is at the hands of the police for a random traffic stop and for trying to cross a busy freeway to catch a Zubat, alright? I'm reading this article on Polygon.com and the headline reads these are the worst places to play Pokemon Go. listen to this
Starting point is 02:08:25 because i can't believe it's that serious for some of y'all first of all let me explain the basic premise of pokemon go the basic premise is that it encourages players to get off their seats and venture out into the real world where they will find pokemon in actual locations but this game is causing some of y'all to lose your minds and disregard basic life etiquette for example the hospital where your wife is in labor. First of all, you should not be playing on your phone while your wife is in labor. You should be right there with her, acting like you can feel every contraction. You should be right there holding her hand, acting like you in pain too.
Starting point is 02:08:56 But no, some of y'all in the room while your wife is pushing, looking for pidgeys. Another inappropriate place to catch a Pokemon, on the side of the road where the cops pulled you over black people I dare you we live in a world where if you reach wrong the cops will light your ass up so I dare you to be on the side of the road while the cops have you pulled over trying to catch a squirtle
Starting point is 02:09:16 you better keep your hands on that steering wheel and not make no sudden moves if you know what I know because Pokemon not dying for you playing Pokemon go while black isn't the same as playing Pokemon go while white make no sudden moves if you know what I know, because Pokemon not dying for you, okay? Playing Pokemon Go Wild Black isn't the same as playing Pokemon Go Wild White. Want to test that theory? Tell the police
Starting point is 02:09:31 a Jigglypuff is on his gun and throw the ball at his gun and see what happens. Okay? Now, if you're operating a motor vehicle on a road filled with other motor vehicles and a Sparrow is in the driver's seat of your car, don't do it! Do I even have to tell you how dangerous this is? One more inappropriate place, funerals.
Starting point is 02:09:49 Bruh, it's disrespectful to try to catch econs, whatever you pronounce it, in a funeral of a loved one, but it's even more disrespectful to walk into a funeral of a stranger and try to catch one. First of all, I hate people who take pictures at funerals. So imagine a canopy on the casket and you in there all up on the casket trying to steady your camera while everybody else crying and grieving. And you in there cheering and jumping around because you just caught a Caterpie. I hate to be the Pokemon, you know, go joy killer.
Starting point is 02:10:15 But it has to be some rules and regulations put into place. Not only should you not be looking for Pokemons in inappropriate places, you can't be getting up to look for Pokemons if you haven't gotten up to look for a job. You can't be looking for Pokemons if you're a grown-ass man and your mom's house is a Pokey spot, but you still live there. What does level up mean, Yee? What is what?
Starting point is 02:10:34 Oh, you got it to level two? Yes! You can't go looking for Pokemon in a doctor's office if you haven't been into a doctor's office yourself for a random checkup in years. You can't go looking for Pokemon in a dentist's office if you've never been in a dentist's office for a random teeth cleaning ever. You can't go looking for Pokemon in the free clinic if you went to the free clinic to get
Starting point is 02:10:52 an STD test but never went back for your results. If you want to be the ultimate Pokemon joy killer today, walk up to a black person while they are playing Pokemon Go and ask them, what is Pokemon Go doing for the Black Lives Matter movement? I'll walk up to a white person and say, does Pokemon Go mean more to you than black lives? Look, man, we all have our vices. We all have things we like to do in our downtime,
Starting point is 02:11:15 but let's make sure we have our priorities in order. Let's remember proper etiquette. And most importantly, let's not die trying to catch a Charmander, please. Okay? Give all these people playing Pokemon Go, you know, risking their lives to catch a Pokemon, the biggest hee-haw, please. Are you finished or are you done? Because I got to go outside.
Starting point is 02:11:33 Yeah, I got to go get this. And by the way, I just activated an incense and they're not coming to me. I got to walk around and see where these things are. This just in. This just in. Charlie Sheen has a game for y'all to play. And you don't have to catch all of them. You just got to catch one.
Starting point is 02:11:47 I'll pass. All right. I don't want to play no more. I'm going to be back. I'll be back. Y'all don't want to play Charlie Sheen? Go. Nope.
Starting point is 02:11:53 Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a guest in the building today. Goes by the name of Martin Shkreli. Did I say that right? Yes. I gave him donkey of the day last week.
Starting point is 02:12:06 Right. This is the guy who went at Ghostface, who jacked up the prices on the HIV-AIDS pills. He had the goons in the background. Yes, he came in here and tried to shake my hand. I said, nope, I can't shake your hand. I need to know what you're all about first. All right. So first question, are you a privileged, entitled prick?
Starting point is 02:12:20 No, come on, man. Break it down for me. I'm from Brooklyn, New York. I was born in brooklyn you know privileged no my parents are janitors dude i heard all right uh my parents to this day you know my mom still does that you're making 50 grand you know it's not a privileged family i grew up in the streets shared a room with my brother you're talking about two bedroom you know four kids okay i grew up the the same way everyone in Brooklyn grows up.
Starting point is 02:12:45 Roaches and rats. I think that phrase comes from a certain rap music artist that you may be familiar with. The God Ghostface Killer. You know what I mean? Maybe, maybe. I was actually thinking of Jay, but you know, whatever. Ghostface said that too, though. Okay.
Starting point is 02:12:59 And all that I got is you. Oh, okay. So you grew up from the hood. You're from Brooklyn. You're from the hood. Yeah, I think so, man. So how did you become this? How did you become so douchey?
Starting point is 02:13:07 How did you become so rich? You know, I think that the media can portray people the way they want, you know, and look, I give it back too. You know, you've got a lot of people here, you know, to prepare for this. I watched you interview Kanye, man. He can act like that too. Kanye could definitely act like a privileged, entitled, yes. You know, so it's part of the persona, the mystique sometimes.
Starting point is 02:13:26 I'm a confident individual. But, you know, after all that's happened, I do want to set some of the records straight. I'm certainly not privileged, man. I've struggled, fought. I went to City College. I earned my way to the top. And I think I should earn a little bit of respect for that. All right, well, let's talk about this Wu-Tang album you brought.
Starting point is 02:13:43 Did you bring it? No, I'll bring it next time. I'll even play a track for you if you want. So you paid $2 million for this album. I did. What made you say, I'm going to buy this album
Starting point is 02:13:52 for $2 million? And it seems like you were upset that RZA wasn't talking about it, the guys weren't discussing it. Well, I'll break it down from the beginning because this is the number one place for hip-hop,
Starting point is 02:14:00 so I might as well, you know, if I'm going to break it down extensively, I might as well do that here. Is that all right? Absolutely. All right, so there's as well, if I'm going to break it down extensively, I might as well do that here. Is that alright? Absolutely. So there's a lot of details, obviously. I think every rich rap guy interested in rap was interested.
Starting point is 02:14:12 You know, I maybe I could even take it back a step further and talk about why I care about the Wu-Tang in the damn first place. I was a rock kid growing up. I'm not a liar. There's nothing. I'll never tell a lie in my life. And I told RZA to his face as I said, I'm not your biggest fan. I can't name every track on every affiliated woo album.
Starting point is 02:14:28 Like, you know, that's not me. Let me be clear about that. Had summer school one year because I was a big, derelict, troublemaker, you know, kid. And me and this kid from the Bronx named Josh Martinez. Josh was always listening to Wu-Tang during summer school. And I would always listen to, like, Nirvana or something like that. And he'd be like, let me hear some of that. And I'd say, all right, let me hear some of yours.
Starting point is 02:14:48 And we dug it. I'm sure you might. I'll show you mine. Yeah, exactly. Basically. Basically, basically. And he's like, you know, I don't really get it. And I was like, yeah, you know, I don't really get yours.
Starting point is 02:15:02 But, you know, I always felt it a little bit. And then I got back into rap. And one of the big reasons I got back to rap was actually the Chappelle Show. When they had the Wu-Tang Financial skit on the Chappelle Show. That was a classic. And it really, quite frankly, I think it did a lot for Wu-Tang. It did a lot for rap. It did a lot for a new audience.
Starting point is 02:15:18 Because we looked at it and we were like, this is kind of, you know, truth is stranger than fiction. That would mean you want to get in the financial game? No, no, no. But I was already in it. You got to diversify your bond. Yeah. And when we saw that, we were like, this is truth is stranger than fiction.
Starting point is 02:15:30 This is actually how a lot of us talk and act in finance. And so I got more and more to wrap when the album came out. I said, I got to own this. There's a lot of things rich dudes buy to just prove that, you know, again, I don't know. For tax purposes? No. Okay. To show off. Just because they're rich. To show your friends, it's your last companies or whatever. It's like, hey, you know, again, I don't know what we're... For tax purposes? No. Just because they're rich. Just show off.
Starting point is 02:15:46 Show your friends, it's your last companies or whatever. Hey, f*** you, look at me. I got this $2 million album. What you think about that? You know, guys do that all the time. If you respect Wu-Tang, why disrespect Ghostface the way you did in that video? Because, you know, I was at Bridger Capital yesterday,
Starting point is 02:16:02 which is a great hedge fund place. I didn't see nobody in there with masks on, a bunch of goons, talking crazy the way you was talking. Bridger, yeah, I wonder what you were doing there. Anyway. Really? Yes, I was, sir. I know people, too.
Starting point is 02:16:16 I'm going to buy me a $2 million album one day. You totally changed every, like blew up my brain right now. He was just cleaning the toilet. No, I wasn't, actually. Go ahead. Look, you know, I have a tremendous amount of respect for the whole clan, you know, including Ghost, but we're talking musically. There's a difference between music and real life
Starting point is 02:16:36 and personas. You said you own him. You said he's like your son. I don't recall saying that. I did say son. Alright, that, let me just end that right there. That's not the intent. I did say son. Alright, that, let me just end that right there. That's not the intent. You know, son is a word that we use all the time. Right? It's meant to show disrespect.
Starting point is 02:16:52 Like, as if you were my son. So you were disrespecting him? Of course. Why though? He disrespected me. How did he disrespect you? Oh, he called me a shithead, I believe. In his defense, a lot of people were saying a lot of people were saying that because of the HIV and drugs situation
Starting point is 02:17:07 which will give you a chance to clean up I'll clean that up but you know at the end of the day it definitely felt like look the guy was taking shots at me in the hip hop game it's not easy to be on the receiving end of those things without jumping back but you're not hip hop whatever it doesn't matter man
Starting point is 02:17:23 it doesn't matter look even in finance it's not even a hip-hop thing. It's a man thing. You take shots at me, I'm going to come back at you, especially publicly. Especially publicly. And that's just basic bravado and the basic manhood. I'm not going to let him steal on me. For what? I feel like you want to be famous, which is crazy to me because you're worth $45 million.
Starting point is 02:17:41 I'm worth a lot more than that. But anyway. Okay. Now, tell us about the drug. What happened with the lot more than that. But anyway. Okay, buddy. Now, tell us about the drug. What happened with the drug? Now, they said that the drug, the pill was what? $13.
Starting point is 02:17:51 Ejected up to $7.50. Ejected up to $7.50. Now, explain that a little bit because people are pissed off about it. It was $18 with $7.50. Same difference. The number one thing I'd say is in law, because a lot of people don't understand this. It's kind of interesting.
Starting point is 02:18:02 In law, you can be prosecuted for not maximizing profits. In fact, I know people who have. And you have to do everything in your power to make as much money as possible in the system we've got. You can't go halfway. And if we did the analysis, we said, we can go to $7.50. From $13? And nothing's changed.
Starting point is 02:18:19 People will pay the $7.50. Not people. Insurance companies, companies, etc. No one's got to actually throw the bills down. But if the insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies have to pay more for it, don't they have to charge regular people more? Absolutely. But why would you want that? I don't want that.
Starting point is 02:18:33 This is one of the smallest drugs around. This is not Lipitor. This is not something everyone's taking. This is a few thousand people take this medicine. It's very rarely used. So in the scheme of things, this is 0.0001% of the drug business. But somebody has to be buying this drug.
Starting point is 02:18:49 Yeah. So for the people that are buying it, even if it is a small few, why jack up the price on it? There's drugs three times this price. Ten times this price. This is not like an insane price. If you know the drug business, you know that this is not that expensive.
Starting point is 02:19:04 In the higher end range, but in the lower higher end range. There's drugs that are $2 million a year. But you did say if somebody can't afford it, you would give it to them for free. Absolutely, man. I'm not going to let someone die. I mean, I'm not an animal. I'm not going to touch with you. We have a system, man.
Starting point is 02:19:16 If you don't have insurance, you get it for free right off the bat. Call Becky with the good health. You better call Becky with the good health. In the morning, everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are The Breakfast Club. Now we have Martin Shkreli in the building. Now, Charlamagne, you keep calling this man a douche. And then when you was on TMZ, you was acting like more of a douche. You wouldn't answer no questions.
Starting point is 02:19:43 Like, why even do the interview if you was... I'd be happy to answer questions. Look, I mean, people start off with me being a douche. I wouldn't answer no questions. Like, why even do the interview if you... I'd be happy to answer questions. Look, I mean, people start off with me being a douche. I can be a very happy, normal dude, but like the guy asked me right off the bat,
Starting point is 02:19:50 he's like, is this a good idea, you know, for you to be insulting? Like, you know, I can self-deprecate myself, but don't come at me. I'm not an idiot.
Starting point is 02:19:57 Clearly there's some satire in this video. It's meant to be a mix of satire and a mix of reality. You did your own sketch. So you're not really having goons that you don't really want to have? I have goons, for real.
Starting point is 02:20:09 You brought your goons up here with you today? A couple of them may be here or outside. Now, what about Bobby Schmurda? Were you really trying to bail out Bobby Schmurda? I would have loved to, and I was in conversations with his attorney a day before I got arrested. But now you can't do it. You know, I got plenty of my own business to deal with. And as far as I know, his trial is coming up soon enough.
Starting point is 02:20:33 So unfortunately for Bobby, I mean, he's, again, this is we're talking about injustice and the criminal justice. And this poor guy, I was bailed out, literally spent three hours in jail, maybe four. They got me my own cell. They got me like, it was like. Oh, that doesn't happen to everybody. White glove treatment, roll out the red carpet. White privilege, basically. You know, I know.
Starting point is 02:20:49 Or rich privilege. Whatever it is. Whatever it is. But I heard the guys in the cell next door talking GS9. They're like, you know, talking about stabbings and shootings. I'm sitting there like, I want to be in that cell. Right. But, uh, you know, they're like, no, we're going to keep this guy separate.
Starting point is 02:21:06 And I was on three hours. This cat's been in jail a year. Jail is supposed to be a temporary spot that you go in and out of while your lawyer gets your ass out of there. You put up some money, something. You don't have to put up much money. One of the amendments to the Constitution, I think it's the Eighth Amendment, says the government will not impose unreasonable bail. And what they're doing
Starting point is 02:21:28 to Bobby is ridiculously unconstitutional. It's disgusting. And as I've seen it, and I'm an opportunist, I said, look, I can take this guy out of jail.
Starting point is 02:21:37 I've got the money. I've got the lawyer and every lawyer in the country. I can get him out of jail tomorrow. I'll put up the two. He'll wear a bracelet
Starting point is 02:21:43 for me or something. Why don't you? It's too late now. I would love for you to do that, but why? What's the reasoning? Two reasons. It's unfair. The guy shouldn't be in jail.
Starting point is 02:21:53 Again, prison is one thing. You get convicted, you do the time. But this man is innocent until proven guilty. That's the basic concept. To incarcerate him before the guy's actually convicted and to deny his bail seven times? But there's a lot of people in that situation. Why Bobby Smart? Because you
Starting point is 02:22:11 know it'll bring you attention? Well, I heard about it. You know, I don't know anyone else in that situation. My boy, you know, some of my boys in that video for instance were in that situation. I could throw down for them immediately, you know. And I don't know Bobby, but you know, everyone knows the song, his music, and... What's the name of it?
Starting point is 02:22:27 Hot... Hot what? Hot Boy, I believe. There you go. The correct name. I believe that's what Billboard... Yeah, that's what Billboard has in it. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 02:22:40 That's the name of the song. Could you potentially lose your fortune now with all of the investigations going on? Never. Never, never. Why do you want to be famous? Like, I always say, if I had that much money, I wouldn't want nobody to know who I am. You know, the problem is it just happens one way whether you like it or not.
Starting point is 02:22:56 Not really. I would have never heard of you if you didn't try to buy the Wu-Tang. If you didn't jack up the prices for each of you. Well, I still wanted to buy it. So how do you buy it and be anonymous? It's not easy. I mean, for a Wu-Tang, it. So how do you buy it and be anonymous? It's not easy. I mean, for Wu-Tang, it's good press for them because they've done something no one's done before. Sold their album as a piece of artwork.
Starting point is 02:23:11 Yes, that's right. For $2 million. But you haven't even heard it yet. It's a new thing. Well, no one's heard it. I heard a little bit. I heard a little bit. Not even before you bought it.
Starting point is 02:23:17 No, I would debut it right on here. You know, I mean, I love hip-hop. I mean, at this point, hip-hop has vastly, vastly surpassed rock. They stayed a rock. Without question. It's not even close. Rock's in the toilet. And there's not one rock artist I'm excited about.
Starting point is 02:23:29 There's like 20, 30 hip-hop. I had Fetty Wap come do my Christmas party. How much you pay him? Leave that one alone. A good amount. And he was great. The guy killed it. Well, if you love hip-hop, you'd never disrespect Ghostface Killers.
Starting point is 02:23:43 I understand you feel like he came at you. It was a tough decision. I'll be clear. It was a tough decision. Because it actually would make hip-hop people look at you crazy. Like, how dare he talk about you bought this album. Who is this? Yacoub's child.
Starting point is 02:23:55 This is Ghostface. He's an icon in hip-hop. Part of Wu-Tang Clan, one of the greatest groups of all time. He's one of the greatest rappers ever. But he's still a man. He still bleeds the same blood as me And you want to talk? I'm not the one
Starting point is 02:24:08 Do you think you have Michael Jackson's nose? No, I got a beautiful nose He should be one to talk If he were here right now, I'd smack him right in the face No, you wouldn't You would not smack Ghosty Would you buy his album? Absolutely, I have all his albums.
Starting point is 02:24:25 I got 36 Seasons. I got everything. 36 Chambers. The hell is around you? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That came out. Okay, yeah, you said Seasons. That's a Ghostface solo album.
Starting point is 02:24:33 Now, back to Donald Trump. Now, he called you a young brass. No, back to that. You will not smack Ghostface, Killer. If you say so, I'll do you that honor. I'm just saying, Ghostface got a lot of people
Starting point is 02:24:43 that love him. He smacked fire at you. And I know you're saying that, but, you know, you walk outside. And Ghostface. I don't think you want those problems. You want to smack Ghost. Martin, anybody can get it, Martin. I know this.
Starting point is 02:24:56 And we're in the midst of this whole Black Lives Matter thing. Racial tensions at all times. How they'd love to chase you back to the car. Don't make it a race thing. At the end of the day, there's people in my family who've been shot and killed. You know, this to you. Did you shoot him and kill him? If not, it doesn't matter. So wait, if you smack Goldson,
Starting point is 02:25:11 would that be justified on his part, though? You can try, man. Would you call the police on him if he beat you up? What's that? Would you call the police on him if he beat you up? Hell no. Hell no. Say that on camera again. I would never call the police. It's open season. Come at me. It don't matter. Papa Woo. Remember when you did that, Bronson? And in fact, I think there's a saying y'all familiar with. It's open season. Come at me. It don't matter. Papa Woo. Remember when you did that, Sam Bronson?
Starting point is 02:25:26 And in fact, I think there's a saying y'all are familiar with. It's called, I wish you would. You entitled, privileged prick. Who are you?
Starting point is 02:25:34 You're going back to this. I'm telling you, I'm from the streets. You know what? 2009, how much money do you think I have in my bank account? That was six years ago.
Starting point is 02:25:42 A couple million. $100. Really? Can I borrow $100? Nope. Yeah, I'm going to borrow money from you. Before you got here, you said he was going to ask you for $100,000
Starting point is 02:25:51 and see what happens. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got plenty of your own connections. I just don't want you to get beat up, man. I mean, I do, but I don't. It is what it is. Because you're kind of causing it on yourself. Have you gotten beaten up?
Starting point is 02:26:01 Never in my life. I fought many times. So you can fight. I've been jumped. You know, it is what it is. Most people, when they fight, they don't want to kill another man. Really? What world are you from?
Starting point is 02:26:11 Most of them. I've been in many fights in Brooklyn. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Martin Shkreli in the building. Now, Donald Trump called you a spoiled brat. F*** him.
Starting point is 02:26:24 Kind of agree with him, though. You know, he inherited, what, a million bucks, a hundred million? Nobody knows, right? And in fact, if you look at the numbers, he actually should be way richer than he is. He's been f***ing up, actually. He hasn't made as much money as he could have. All you had to do to be Trump is inherit that money and put it away and just put it in your boys. And you'd be fine.
Starting point is 02:26:43 You'd be the richest man in the world. So, in fact, he hasn't been a good businessman. He talks way too much. We all know that. And at the end of the day, you know, who's a spoiled brat? I'm sorry, where I come from, that means, like, you know, entitled, privileged, et cetera. No, my first job, I had two choices.
Starting point is 02:26:58 I was going to work at Carvel Ice Cream, or I worked at a hedge fund. I was lucky enough to get a job at a hedge fund, but I didn't even have suits to wear to the hedge fund. I didn't know how to dress. Like, it was ridiculous. You were the Baruch, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:27:09 So you had $100 in 2009. How'd you get your first million? I started a drug company called Retrophin. It was the fastest growing drug company probably ever. How did that happen? How do you just start a drug company? You got, it's, starting a drug company is close to impossible
Starting point is 02:27:22 because you need hundreds of millions of dollars. Right, so how did you do it? Go to investors, like your boys. You got investors? That's the company now that you actually, with the securities for a charge, has got to rest in peace. There's a little bit of involvement there, correct?
Starting point is 02:27:32 Are you scared to go to jail? No, I'm not scared of anything in life. You know, there's a lot of Wu-Tang fans in jail. You heard about what happened to Kanye West, right? You're talking about Amber Rose? Yeah. She gets arrested, right? That's in, that's in plain daylight.
Starting point is 02:27:47 You're a real rich guy, so what's the craziest thing that you've done? Because we've all seen Wolf of Wall Street. What's the craziest thing that you've bought and the craziest thing that you've done? Dude, I'm not, I'm a regular guy. No, you're not! You bought an hour for two million dollars. I did that to show that I care about art, and then today, there's all this wealth,
Starting point is 02:28:02 right? There's all this crazy wealth. Kanye was here, all he could talk about was billionaires. I felt the same way you did. Like, why are you all about the money? Two million, that was a waste of money. Well, I wouldn't say a waste of money if you would take it. Is it an investment? Is it something that you think will be worth more later?
Starting point is 02:28:14 I'm going to lose money on this. I knew that going into it. The point is I wanted to show respect for art. So buying that album is the most ridiculous thing I've done. But other than that, man, I'm a normal guy. I webcast, as you may know. I webcast my day. I sit there and eat a bagel.
Starting point is 02:28:28 Last night I ate rice-a-roni. I'm not eating there. I'm not having a lot of waiter put the lobster on. Like, I'm a normal dude. The money's stacking up. That's great. I hope it keeps stacking up. Were you upset that you didn't get the response you thought you would get from the guys from the Wu-Tang?
Starting point is 02:28:41 This is exactly what I wanted. You know, I mean, this is playing into my hand. You know, and what happens next, you'll see. So basically this is just stunting? This is exactly what I wanted. You know, I mean, this is playing into my hand, you know, and what happens next, you'll see. So basically this is just stunting. This is white people stunting. That's what it was. White people stunting. We bought jewelry. We bought jewelry. You bought a two-man dollar Wu-Tang. Basically. There you go.
Starting point is 02:28:55 No, I'm thinking about getting... I have a Jacob. I've got... You got a what? Jacob what? I bought Killer Mike's Jacob. Killer Mike wears a Jacob watch? I bought his. Not anymore. I snatched his watch. Let me ask you a question. What are you doing for the Black Lives Matter movement?
Starting point is 02:29:11 The movement itself? You know, at the moment, you know, as you know, I'm involved in a lot of stuff. I got to figure that out. So, like, at the end of the day, like, I would love to do some stuff for Flint. I would love to do some stuff for everything. I would love to do some stuff for everything. But as you can imagine, after you're arrested, your life changes. So are your assets frozen right now? No, no, no.
Starting point is 02:29:31 You know, but at the end of the day, it's crazy. You know, I mean. I mean, you have resources. I mean, you know, if you spend $2 million on an album, you can spend money. Will you tell me what you think I should do? I think you should donate some money to, like, the activists. You know, like the D-Rays of the world, the netters, because they go around traveling. And, you know, a lot of times they just need funding just to keep going.
Starting point is 02:29:48 You know what I'm saying? I'm interested in doing that. You know, at the end of the day, you know, right now, you know, there's ODB used to say this. I'm all about me right now. And people come and try to troll me. I just say that. And at the end of the day, there's sometimes you got to focus on yourself. And for now, I'm in so much that I got to do that.
Starting point is 02:30:08 And, you know, obviously, you do that obviously the movement spoke to me my world has been so crazy that I can't you can always just write a six figure check to see the God World LLC I was about to do it until you laughed you f***ed it up Envy we appreciate you joining us
Starting point is 02:30:23 I still don't know how I feel about you. You still have a very douchey air about you. But I like the fact you came from nothing and made something happen, especially that you only had $100 back in 2009. You said your mom is still a janitor to this day? Yes. You have enough money. You still got your mom being a janitor?
Starting point is 02:30:38 Oh, she won't. Okay, I get it. I beg her every day. She doesn't understand the money and markets and things like this. I'm going to work for you guys, and that's it. Great mom. All right. And Gold's face is going to smack you.
Starting point is 02:30:47 We'll see, man. Bring it. I wish you would. I wish you would. The leader of the douche-tang clan, the DZA, ladies and gentlemen. Martin Shkreli. Shkreli. Shkreli.
