Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Hey y'all, Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.

Starting point is 00:03:23 Breakfast Club listeners. All right, brother. I just want to talk about Kamala Harris. You know, she's a great pick, but social media are dogging her as far as saying she's not black enough and saying that incarceration of black people. And I think she was just doing her job. And social media is just killing her, especially black folks, And I think she was just doing her job. And social media
Starting point is 00:03:46 is just killing her. Especially black folks, which I don't understand. I don't understand it, nor do I get it either. It seems like it's especially black folks, but it's not especially black folks. A lot of that is manufactured. It's bots. It is a lot of black people.
Starting point is 00:04:01 I'm not going to say it's a lot, but it is a large amount of black people that don't like her. But a lot of that is bots and a lot of that is coming from the Trump administration. But that's that's that's that's expected. OK, OK. I think it's more than bots, bro. Yes, sir. I know you ride your bike and you ride for miles.
Starting point is 00:04:19 If you're not busy Sunday, why don't you come up to White Plains and ride for justice at 9 a.m.? It's a great event. Yeah, I seen Tamika Mallory and my son doing it. I might go do my ride at 5 in the morning and join y'all. I was thinking about that today. I usually do my rides 5 in the morning, so by the time I get back, my kids is up, so I can be here for their breakfast. That's why I go so early, but we'll see. Maybe I will try to make it up there.

Hey, this King calling out Ohio. What's happening? What's up? Get it off your chest. Hey, I just wanted to talk about the election.
Starting point is 00:05:48 I just think it's whack that we pretty much vote, and we got to vote for anybody just to get Trump out of office. I mean, it seems like this is our only option. After we've seen both the records of Biden and Harris, it's just whack that we got to vote for them to get Trump out of office. All right, well, make sure you're registered. What's Harris' record, King? I'm just talking about where all of the convictions that a black man,
Starting point is 00:06:14 she put behind bars. I'm thinking that. What's the number of convictions? How many black men did she put behind bars? Like, what's the number? Because I keep hearing people say that, but I haven't seen any numbers. What's the number? Well, I haven't done all the research. I don't know the numbers. I know. And that's the number? Because I keep hearing people say that, but I haven't seen any numbers. What's the number? Well, I haven't done all the research.
Starting point is 00:06:27 I don't know the number. I know. And that's the problem. And that is the problem. Hold on. And that's the problem. You know, with some numbers, though, you know, she did district attorneys. You know, she put people behind bars.
Starting point is 00:06:39 But listen, I'm just saying that since Trump been in the office, black people have come together to, to like stand up against that racism. I've seen what we just waiting for somebody to get in the office to put us back to sleep or we waiting for somebody to save us. Right now, bro, we need to stand together like we've been doing and keep fighting, you know, for what we're doing instead of waiting for somebody to come in and try to save us or pacify us. That's all I'm saying. I agree with that. And it's not even about Senator Harris. It's about Biden.
Starting point is 00:07:10 He the president. She just the VP. I'm not voting for Biden. I know a little bit about him. I'm not voting for Biden. I'm voting for Senator Harris. I'm not voting for Biden. So, sir, are you voting?
Starting point is 00:07:19 Are you registered to vote? I'm registered, but, man, it's so hard. It's tricky. Like, man, this is whack to me, man. I just don't feel like I want to give my vote to somebody that... We've been standing together fighting. I mean, nobody's coming to save y'all.
Starting point is 00:07:33 We gotta save ourselves. I mean... Do me a favor. Nobody's coming in to save us. I agree with you. 100%. But I do think that we can use our collective power and we can use our collective black leverage to, you know, elect people that we want to elect. And then we can hold them accountable once they get in those positions. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:07:52 I think black people are coming together in a real way. And we need to keep this collective pressure going way beyond once somebody is in the White House. Well, thank you. All right. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:08:06 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Let's go. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. Stay with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So if you got something on your mind, let it out.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Hello, who's this? Oh, it's Anthony. Good morning. DJ MV, Solomon God, Angelique. Good morning, DJ Envy, Charlamagne God, Angelique. Good morning, sir. Peace, King. Good morning, good morning. I want to start by saying congratulations on you guys with the Radio Hall of Fame
Starting point is 00:08:33 induction. Thank you, sir. Yeah, no problem. And Envy, you invited Charlamagne on a bike ride. I heard him. I'll say that Envy invited you on Charlamagne on a bike ride. And I'll let you guys know that. I'll send that MV invited you on Charlamagne on the bike ride. And apparently bike riding can lower men's testosterone and cause erectile dysfunction because of the pressure that it causes when you sit on the bike seat. It puts pressure on that space that's called perineum and it can slow the blood flow.
Starting point is 00:09:05 So I'm not trying to discredit you. I'm not trying to stop you from buying bikes. Yeah, I got gel for him, though, brother. I got some gel for him, so he'll be all right. I got some nice gel for him to make sure he's all right. You think he's trying to sabotage Charlemagne? I can't call it one way or another. Definitely sounds like some sort of infiltration
Starting point is 00:09:26 penetration. Something he wants to do to my peranium. That'd be a dope Bobby Brown remake. It's my peranium. Where's the peranium at? It's like in between your and your monkey? That's the medical term for it. It's called the peranium. I just found that out.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Thank you. You learn something new every day here on The Breakfast Club. Yeah, you gotta protect our Hall of Famers. You know, you can't let the Hall of Famers that out. Wow. Thank you. You learn something new every day here on The Breakfast Club. Yeah, you got to protect our Hall of Famers. You know, you can't let the Hall of Famers go out. That's right. But I got some gel pants for you, Charlamagne. You be good, man. No.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Gel pants take care of everything between your ass and your penis. Bro, you're not getting my perineum, King. I don't want your perineum. Thank you, sir. Hello, who's this? Hello. Hey, what's your name, bro? Dorian.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Hey, Dorian, get it off your chest. Yeah, I got an issue with Charlemagne. I feel like he's been extremely reckless with bashing Biden all the time. I mean, we got the most dangerous president we've ever had in the country in office right now. And every chance we get, he's like have time to have this conversation with people because if you're trying to get those disaffected voters or those young voters to come out, trust me when I tell you, saying that you're the anti-Trump just isn't enough. A lot of energy is behind Senator Kamala Harris right now, and a lot of energy is behind the fact that they actually have, you know, an economic Black agenda for Black folks. And people want
Starting point is 00:10:57 it to be stronger, yes, but it's a great start. But they got to keep that momentum up, period. Every single moment is advertising. Every single moment up, period. Every single moment is advertising. Every single moment is a commercial. Every single moment is promotion and marketing. What's going to make people come to the party in November? Putting Senator Harris on the flyer with Joe Biden. Last night, there was not enough of that in no way, shape, or form. I think people complained when they was like,
Starting point is 00:11:19 damn, why Michelle Obama ain't mentioned Senator Harris? But she pre-taped before Senator Harris was the VP pick. So, yes, if you really want Joe Biden to win, then you'll be encouraging him to push an agenda and policy as well as Senator Harris as well. All right. Well, hello, who's this? Hi, this is Stephanie.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I talked about it yesterday, but I sounded terrible on the phone. Hey, Stephanie, get it off your chest, mama. Sheryl, you keep talking about people not being outraged about this whole voter suppression thing. I am literally terrified. I woke up the other day. I live
Starting point is 00:11:52 on, like, a main street, and there's a mailbox across the street. I woke up, like, scared that they took the mailbox away, and I keep checking every day, and I'm, like, trying to get out the information that we need to go support the USPS, but also to make sure that our ballots are counted.
Starting point is 00:12:05 But it's like you don't know what to do in this situation. This is the craziest thing ever to be happening right now. That's true. You can text USPS to 50409 and they'll send letters to your senators and representatives in support of the Postal Service. It takes like less than one minute. I actually did it yesterday. Just text USPS to 50409.
Starting point is 00:12:30 But yesterday I did see the outrage I was looking for. There was actually a hashtag. It was Divorce Trump. It had like 60,000, 70,000 tweets and it was, you know, people finally I guess realizing like, whoa, whoa, whoa, this dude is really trying to kill our democracy. Yeah, it's like we act was, you know, people finally I guess realizing like, whoa, whoa, whoa, this dude is really trying to kill our democracy.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Yeah, it's like we act like, you know, you see this happening in other countries or you don't have to happen, dictatorships, all of the above. We act like it can't happen to us, but he is trying to do exactly that. We are not exempt from such. Absolutely. Those happen with other countries because of one person, because of a dictator, not because
Starting point is 00:13:01 of just one. Absolutely. That's why I had to get off my chest. I'm terrified, but I'm going to vote and do my part. Well, thank you, brother. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:13:15 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.
Starting point is 00:13:29 I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There are 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Laudonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg.
Starting point is 00:13:42 I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe own country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:14:00 What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.
Starting point is 00:14:12 That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So y'all, this is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records.
Starting point is 00:15:29 It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap is another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some
Starting point is 00:16:41 noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the line right now, Sherri Shepherd.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Hey, y'all. How you doing? I'm doing a little awkward The first conversation between you and Angela Yee was like I know you ain't got no pants on And you replied, I don't I'm like, whoa Because it's very businessy up at the top
Starting point is 00:17:17 And everyone's going back to sleep at the bottom Yeah, business on top, party on the bottom Hey, we was talking about you this morning, Sherry. I never knew that you was on Friends. Yes. You remember it was Gabrielle Union. I used to tie her in with me. I run.
Starting point is 00:17:33 These aren't real. Pete, I gave you my point, and I shared my Snapchat with you. That was a memorable line. People ask me to say it. I'll be shopping for toilet paper, and people ask me to say the line. I'm going to be honest with you. I didn't know what was happening. I thought you were having a stroke. I was like, what is going on? I didn't know what you were doing just now.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Let me ask you this. Sherry, did you ever used to watch Friends before you were on an episode? Keep it real. I really didn't. No, I really didn't because there was nobody that looked like me, but I watched Living Single all the time, which I was also on Living Single. But they had to fight for me to be on Friends
Starting point is 00:18:12 because the role that I did was written for a white person. And my agent said, just let her come in the room and audition and see what she does. And that's how I got hired. And they never brought you back because you called out all the white people? They said you left a postcard? That's hilarious. I got hired. And they never brought you back because you called out all the white people? They said you left a postcard? That's hilarious. I was devastated.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I was in my early 20s, and I was so excited to be on Friends because they had let my agents know that I did such a great job. And that particular episode was one of the top fan favorites, even to this day. And so I made a postcard with me and I brought up the color like my skin everything was just real colorized and I put on the back of the postcard friends finally got some color and I sent it to all the people because we didn't have a uh you know all the social media so I sent it to all my friends and fans and all of the producers at friends and they never called me
Starting point is 00:19:01 back like sometimes if your character is will steal a scene they will call me back. Like sometimes if your character will steal a scene, they will call you back to do other work. They never called me back for any auditions ever and I was so devastated because I said, did I offend the producers? So I'm not saying that they should have called me back, but I never was
Starting point is 00:19:20 called back. Are they calling you more? Are they reaching out to you now with everything going on? The phone lines are starting to light up. Your agent is calling you like, hey, we're getting a lot of offers right now. A lot of auditions. I'm hoping that that comes my way, you know, but I don't think my calls have increased
Starting point is 00:19:35 because I think people just know me and they know my reputation. But I hope that that's happening for other people who didn't have, you know, the chances that I've had. Are you happy with the chances that I've had. Right. Are you happy with the diversity? Y'all called me. For what?
Starting point is 00:19:50 We ain't got nothing to offer you. This ain't going to help you. This ain't going to help me at all. But you say, I mean, listen, you have stayed working, though. So just for other people out there who are trying to make it right now, what is the difference that you see from when you first started in your career and now? Just was it a lot more difficult back then? And what advice would you give to young black women and young black men who are trying to break into the industry and having a difficult time?
Starting point is 00:20:14 I think, number one, if you know this is what you're supposed to do, don't let anybody stop you because it only takes one person. I mean, even with the show, I was promoting Iglesias, Mr. Iglesias. Gabriel Iglesias hired to be his love interest. They were auditioning name actresses who you know. And someone from our wardrobe department, Elora Casado, was a theater major in New York, but she had no agent in L.A. And she was doing our wardrobe. And the head of the wardrobe went to Gabriel and said,
Starting point is 00:20:43 would you just give her a chance to audition that's something that you don't do you can get fired for doing something like that but gabe being the person that he is he said okay elora came in and blew him away they hired her they hired the wardrobe assistant to play his love interest and it was she was amazing they made her regular on the show so So that's what I tell people. It only takes one person to believe in you. So if this is what you know you're supposed to do, keep doing it. Now, what I see that's different now is now people are going, well, why can't the chief of staff of the hospital be a black person or be a Latina person?
Starting point is 00:21:19 So, you know, I think it is opening up. Because I have the reputation, when I did Friends and suddenly Susan, I used to be known as a black girl that did all the white shows. Now you got leads of shows, Niecy Nash doing Claws and Viola Davis, How to Get Away with Murder and Kerry Washington. So it is opening up. More people behind the scenes. That's what we need. All right, we got more with Sherri Shepherd. When we come back, don't move.
Starting point is 00:21:40 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Sherri Shepherd. Yee.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Now, you also have your podcast, Two Funny Mamas, with Kim Whitley. So how much fun is that for you? Because that seems like it's something that you're doing just because you're passionate about it and it's a good time. I love doing Two Funny Mamas podcast. It's on YouTube, so you can subscribe on YouTube. And we're just, you know, we're two single mothers. We're raising black boys, and we just happen to be, we just love making people laugh.
Starting point is 00:22:14 We're on tour on our Ladies' Night Out comedy tour, Kim Whitley and I. And we talk about everything from marching, from Don Lemon calling people out, to should we shave during the quarantine to how do you have COVID sex, back to how do you have confidence as a woman, how do you date?
Starting point is 00:22:32 It's just a gamut of stuff because we're grown-ass women and we talk about grown stuff. So we're on our seventh episode right now. Right now we still have people coming at us wanting to pitch a TV show based on us. And, you know, ultimately, I would love Kim and I to have a talk show.
Starting point is 00:22:48 I would love that. I love Kim Woodley. Now you have a 14-year-old son, right? Your son's 14 now? He just turned 15. He's in high school. He turned 15.
Starting point is 00:22:55 And I found out he has a Snapchat account. And on his Snapchat account, he said, he said, I like the WWE. I like the NBA. I like Teen Titans and Nickelodeon, and I want a girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:23:09 It was so sweet. He wants a girlfriend. What if his girlfriend got a hoopty? That's okay, because he got a hoopty. He's only 15. He's 15. He should have a hoopty. If he's running around with a girl who's got a Mercedes,
Starting point is 00:23:25 then that means she's a grown woman like me, and I'm going to punch her in her damn mouth. She's trying to get my son. So she should have. Yeah, I'm that kind of mama. Don't come to my son, these older women, because he's starting to look like a young man, and I can see older women looking at him,
Starting point is 00:23:38 and I look at them and go, you don't even have a uterus anymore, so stop it. Oh, my gosh. But I don't play around with my son. I'm one of those, Angela. Now with everything that's going on now, what conversations are you having with him now? Because he's 15, he's out, he's with his friends, and you know, we've seen what happened with George Floyd, we've seen what's going on with the world, racists are popping out crazy.
Starting point is 00:23:58 So what conversations are you having with him? It's very hard for me because I just did a post about Elijah McClain, who was murdered by the police. And, you know, he was wearing a ski mask, which is people who have children with special needs or unique challenges. You know, those things, it helps your central, your nervous system. That's why you wear those kind of things. Jeffrey wears a hoodie because, you know, the hood on his head, it just grounds his nervous system. And he's socially awkward. So to know that a boy got murdered and they didn't get to, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:29 he was saying to them, I'm an introvert, I'm different. And they weren't listening to him. It broke something in me yesterday. I swear it's very scary for me. And I try not to, you know, I got to, I'm raising a blackish sort of child. He does have a lot of benefits because I'm his mother. But at the end of the day, they don't know he's Sherri Shepherd's son. And I try to, I want him to have his innocence
Starting point is 00:24:51 and not go out there with all of this fear. So he can handle some of it, the conversation, but then sometimes he's like, it's too much, Mommy. Stop sending me all of the Karen videos because I like doggone, you know, the WWE women. So I'm trying not to give him too much and let him be happy and let him have his joy.
Starting point is 00:25:12 I think I'm more anxious for me. He wants a girlfriend. Now what if he brings home a white girl? Would that matter to you? Are you cool with whatever? I want the person who loves my son but I have to say, Angela, when you say that, fear goes all through my body.
Starting point is 00:25:27 It just does because I'm seeing all of these Beckys and Karens, and it's my fear. At some point, you're going to act the way you are. I'm a black woman. At some point, I'm going to act like where I came from. I keep it suppressed a lot, but it will come out, and I feel at some point you're going to act like who you are, and that scares me.
Starting point is 00:25:46 That scares me that there could be one misunderstanding, and she can say, I'm going to call the police. You know, you got angry, and that scared me. So I would have a hard time. You know, I don't want to put that on him, but for me, it scares me. You want to protect yourself. I'm going to tell you something, Sherri. God got a sense of humor, so I can see him bringing home a Karen,
Starting point is 00:26:07 a white woman actually named Karen who's driving a hoopty. I can see that. I can see it. Middle name Becky. Middle name Becky. I can see that happening. You know, and you just have to, I will love whoever my son brings. And I don't want to put any of that on him.
Starting point is 00:26:21 I will love, if you love my son, I'm going to love you. I'm not going to say I don't have any trepidation, you know, and that's why I have to trust in God that he brings the right woman. But I sure hope she look like me with a long wig. My goodness. Oh, Sherry is crazy. Mr. Iglesias is on Netflix right now, right? It's on right now, Mr. Iglesias.
Starting point is 00:26:44 And I got a book. I mean, excuse me. I'm working on a book. And then I got a movie coming out called Best Week Ever on Netflix. It'll be coming out in a couple weeks. I got some more stuff going on. I'm in quarantine. I can't even remember.
Starting point is 00:26:56 But Mr. Iglesias is the big one. And my podcast, Funny Mamas. All right. Good to see you, Sherri. A new episode is out today. A new episode is out. A new podcast episode is out today on YouTube. So I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:27:07 I'm on it. I'll be listening. All right, Sherri. Well, thank you for checking in. We appreciate you. Self-financed, okay? I done sold my hoopsies to pay for this podcast. So there we go, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:27:19 All right. Well, it's Sherri Shepherd. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. It's Sherri Shepherd. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 00:27:37 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now, if you just joined us, we're asking, ladies, would you date a guy that drives a hoopty? Now, this came from our conversation with Sherri Shepherd this morning. Let's play a clip. What if he pulls up in a hoopty?
Starting point is 00:27:54 Would that matter? You can hoopty on out of here because here's the problem. I'm not putting you down if you got a hoopty. You're working your way there. But you're going to have a problem as a man if you're trying to keep up with me. So now I got to come down here. What add value are you going to add to this relationship? Because I know what I'm bringing. Our levels are going to be different and what's ultimately
Starting point is 00:28:13 going to end up happening is you may feel affected as a man. So we're asking, would you? Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? This is Lorenzo. Hey Lorenzo, would you be the guy that drives a Hooptie? Yeah, I drive a Hooptie right now. I'm a married man.
Starting point is 00:28:29 When I met my wife, I drove a Hooptie. But we own rental properties. We got a nice house that we're proud of, and it's not an issue. It's not about what you do. Now, slow down. There you go. What kind of car do you drive? Because I want to know your definition of a Hooptie, because Envy's definition was all off.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Okay, I drive a 2003 Ford Focus right now. Okay, yeah. That's a hoopty. You win. Shut you right up, ye. That is a hoopty. Why don't you get a newer car? I'm just curious.
Starting point is 00:28:58 It's just not important to me. I'm more worried about getting more rental properties. I'm more worried about keeping my wife happy and leaving my kids something when I'm gone. That getting more rental properties. I'm more worried about keeping my wife happy and leaving my kids something when I'm gone. That's my focus. There you go. That's my Ford focus. Thank you, brother.
Starting point is 00:29:14 I'm saying, I've always... Angie, I'm kind of like your dad. You said he always drove a hoopty. I just never really felt comfortable in a nice car, to be honest. This is what I always drive. Really? Would you like it if, like, you know, maybe your wife surprised you and bought you a new car? Would that be dope? Nah, she better get us another property.
Starting point is 00:29:31 There you go. Because you know what? I'm not going to lie, though. Sometimes them cars get old, and then you end up spending so much money fixing things. You might as well just get a new car. Nah, get your old hoopty, put a liability on it, and you're good. How much is a new Ford
Starting point is 00:29:48 Focus? Let me see. How much does that run? Y'all laughing at my car? She laughing at your car. No, I'm just trying to see. This is a wagon. Let's see. How much can we get for that? Okay. Don't you Ford Focus, Shane?
Starting point is 00:30:03 You might get like $3,000 for it. How many miles it got on it? That like 190. Oh, wow. No, you're not going to get $3,000. No, you're going to get about $900. You're going to get about $200. You're right.
Starting point is 00:30:18 That's a Ford Focus, brother. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just saying, but Sherry was wrong. She was talking about how she's bringing a man up and he can't go where she can go. Men do that with women all the time. But women expect it. And that's the difference.
Starting point is 00:30:33 They expect for a man to take them places they couldn't go and things like that. So it depends. No, no, let's not generalize. There's a lot of places I can go that, you know, I'm not. I can take myself a lot of places. that, you know, I'm not I can take myself a lot of places, so, you know, I get it. And she can take herself a lot of places, so I think her point was, I can
Starting point is 00:30:51 do these things, and if he can't do them then it might hurt his own ego. I just want to give you a lot of props for having that Ford Focus with 200,000 miles, brother. You stay clean out there, man. Hello, who's this? This is Celia. Hello, who's this? This is Celia.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Hey, Celia. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. We're asking, would you date a guy that drives a hoopty? Well, in my younger days, it wouldn't have been a deal breaker, but I'm in my mid-30s, and I think that if you don't have,
Starting point is 00:31:23 if your life choices haven't led you to at least have a reliable vehicle in your mid-30s, then we'll probably butt heads. What if it's a reliable hoopty? I still think, you know, it should be something up to date and nice. I think a hoopty doesn't go hand in hand with reliable. Hoopty to me is like it's run down. It's not up to par. You probably have problems with it. It's not, you know, it's not something that if you're in your mid-30s that you should be, you know, you should have something nice and reliable. I agree with you. I agree
Starting point is 00:31:49 that when you're younger, things like that don't matter because we all struggling trying to make it. But when you get to a certain age, you like, okay, I don't want to have like struggle love anymore. Right. And I understand things happen, but like, I don't want to have to weed through like, okay, are you just going through something or is this just who you are? Are you just a person that doesn't make good decisions? You know, at least come with a reliable up-to-date vehicle. And then he's like, oh, my car broke down. Can I use your car to get to work?
Starting point is 00:32:15 Then you're dropping him off at work. I have seven children. Seven children? I don't need eight. How do you fit all those kids in the car? She got a minivan. Minivan can't need eight. How do you fit all those kids in the car? She got a minivan. Minivan can't sit eight? She got the third row.
Starting point is 00:32:31 I can't even believe I'm talking to you. Even with a third row, what kind of car do you got that seats eight? I have a Chrysler, a Dodge, or what is it, a Chrysler Town & Country. You don't even know what she has. I know, I know. Chrysler Town & Country. There's no way in hell you has. I know, I know. Chrysler Town & Country. There's no way in hell you get all seven kids in that one car. Yes, you can.
Starting point is 00:32:49 No, you can't. Three in the middle, three in the back, one in the front. Yeah, and I have teenagers, and sometimes I have my kids and a couple of their friends. They squeeze in, and we make it happen. Lap it up, baby. Goodness gracious. So, wait, who gets to ride a shotgun?
Starting point is 00:33:05 They all fight over it. So I don't just let my oldest get the shotgun because she's the oldest. If my five-year-old calls it first, then that's who gets it. Now let's be honest. We have daily fights and sometimes fist fights over the front seat. When your husband's in the car with you, one of the kids got to sit on the floor. Yeah, how are you going to assume that? She's a single mom raising seven amazing kids. One of them got to sit on the floor. Yeah, how are you going to assume that? She's a single mom raising seven amazing kids.
Starting point is 00:33:26 One of them got to sit on the floor. Don't lie. You got to at least have an up-to-date car because I'm doing seven by myself. I know if you're just you, then you can have a decent car. It doesn't have to be a foreign or anything. I got to have a tractor trailer if I date you with those damn
Starting point is 00:33:41 kids. Geesh. Not all women with children are liabilities and not all women with less or no children are assets. That's a fact. I just got to get all the kids in the car. How y'all going to come to my house for Christmas? We got to get a tractor trailer to get everybody there. Geesh.
Starting point is 00:33:56 She's like, look, I raise... We're the whole party. You know, you don't have to send out a bunch of invitations. Just invite me. So for the pandemic, you were straight because you had your seven kids and they had things to do. They were playing with each other the whole time. I have a great idea for a business
Starting point is 00:34:11 for you. You know how they have like people that you could hire if you don't have a lot of friends. If there's people whose kids don't have a lot of friends, they could just call you. You're going to bring seven over. You bring all the kids and then you just charge them. Yeah. And there's a party. So it's like the wedding singer, but it's like the friend. Right. For the kids And then you just charge them And there's a party So it's like the wedding singer
Starting point is 00:34:27 But it's like the friend For the kids I want more kids I want 10 kids My wife's not trying to have it I'm trying to have more and more and more kids What's the moral of the story? The moral of the story is we don't want no scrubs
Starting point is 00:34:40 That's what it's sounding like Now I understand the diamond and the rough thing I think when we're younger and we're not in that space and we're all trying to come up together, it means a lot. And there are some women who are OK with, you know, that. And we did speak to a man who actually has a lot of properties and cars aren't important to him. But I do think, you know, we don't want to be having to pick you up on the side of the road because your car broke down. We don't want you having to ask us to drive our car because your car broke down. You can't get to work.
Starting point is 00:35:07 So I think as long as you have something decent that works, then, you know, it could work out. But certain people like a Sherri Shepherd, she's just not with it. All right. We've been locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart?
Starting point is 00:35:25 Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this.

I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition.
Starting point is 00:35:51 The Waikana tribe own country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?

It's DJ Angela Yee. Shalom and the God, we are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:39:04 We got some special guests in the building. The album is out right now. We got The Lox. No doubt. Yo, yo, yo. What up? What up, fellas? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:39:14 Al Mount right now. Everything great. Feeling good. Yes, sir. What's up with y'all? Yeah, nah, everything is good, man. The album sounds amazing. It's refreshing.
Starting point is 00:39:26 It's one of those albums that make you want to go on a jog, as Kiss is doing right now, or made you want to hop on that bike, or make you want to work out. It gives you that feeling. It restores the feeling. So let's talk about the album. Did y'all do it pandemic style? Did y'all do it before pandemic? Did y'all get together in the studio? How'd it go?
Starting point is 00:39:42 This is definitely before, man. We had a bunch of records, and we made a bunch of new ones. This is way before everything took place. Yeah. It was definitely in the studio. It was definitely, we've been working forever since the people been asking for it. But trying to get the business straight
Starting point is 00:39:59 and ownership of the masters. And, you know what I mean? That was really the time lapse between all of the albums. Once we signed with Roc Nation and got a partnership, able to own our music and be in control of our business, we finally decided to let it out. But it's been 20 years. It's very hard.
Starting point is 00:40:21 That's how long it takes to get your rights back in this game. But now we've been giving y'all like trinities It's very hard. That's how long it takes to get your rights back in this game. But now we've been giving y'all like trinities and all kinds of projects. Shoot the Americans. Everything. Shoot the Americans. Little finger food. But this is an entree prepared by Big Mama. When you look at the statistics, you're like,
Starting point is 00:40:42 Dan, this is only the Locks' third album. It seems like y'all put out so much catalog, damn, this is only the Lock's third album? Like, it seems like y'all put out so much catalog, you can't believe it's only our third album. Because we have. We have been putting out a bunch of albums. That kills me when we do interviews and they say, so your new fourth, third, fourth album.
Starting point is 00:40:56 Like, we're 80 years old. Now we only got three albums. If mixtapes counted for albums, we probably have the most albums in the world. Absolutely. That's a fact. How has the creative process changed as you've gotten older? Because, you know, it was 20 years ago that the last Locked album dropped. Even though y'all did put out mad music, solo projects, mixtapes, everything.
Starting point is 00:41:17 But how has the creative process changed as you've gotten older? Not really creatively. More like content. Because we got older. The things we talk about. You understand what I'm saying? Yeah, before we was trying to get our hands on talk about. You understand what I'm saying? Before we was trying to get our hands on a kilo. You know what I mean? Now we own businesses
Starting point is 00:41:29 and all type of stuff. So you got to figure out a crafty way to show your evolution. I was watching the podcast that y'all did with Mary J. Blige and Angie Martinez. And she was talking about how she knew y'all growing up. And she said style was seven at the time,
Starting point is 00:41:45 and living, used to hear her sing, and taking the demo and bringing it to the puff. I always thought if Mary would have started a label at that time, would y'all have signed to Mary? Absolutely. Shout out to Mary. I always tell people she didn't want anything after that,
Starting point is 00:42:01 even watching us blow up. Mary probably did the best business with us than anybody. Absolutely. She got us a deal and then won a nickel. Word up. Word. That's a fact. She don't even get to find this video.
Starting point is 00:42:13 I talk about find the video. Yo, nothing. Yo, nothing. She ain't want nothing. She let her cousin get that. Our man. Our man that actually gave her the tape. She let our man, Bob, get to find this video.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Who was part of our entourage that actually passed her the tape, we let our man Bach get to find his feet, who was part of our entourage, that actually passed her the tape that we passed him. We let him get to find his feet. Wow. Y'all talk about the evolution of y'all music, man. A record like Miss You. Like, what place did each of y'all have to get in your lives to realize, like, that's the message you want to send in the
Starting point is 00:42:40 song? Because y'all represent the streets. Yeah, yeah. Now you're trying to get brothers out of it. Absolutely. Like I said, I was born in the streets, but I was smart enough to move. You know what I mean? Whatever I went through, I don't want my kids to go through at all. So kind of that's what I was at with it. And just putting that message out there to the young dudes that
Starting point is 00:42:56 was like us, that's probably still hustling. You know what I mean? Taking penitentiary chances. You do it to get out of the game. Absolutely. Nobody want to risk your life to stay there. You know what I mean? You try to make a better way for yourself, your family, your loved ones. That's the overall goal.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Getting out of it. What did you say, Si? I said if we don't get that message to the hood, who will? You know what I mean? The hood people, a lot of the regular world who hear hip-hop kind of misconstrue it all the time. I think hood people just want to always be in the hood.
Starting point is 00:43:28 A lot of people want better. A lot of people want to strive for better. A lot of people want better situations. But they have to be informed that it's possible. And, you know, that it's cool to do it, and it's cool to strive for better. And a lot of people are mostly like that, but most people don't know that.
Starting point is 00:43:43 So we're just trying to broadcast the message, like, you know what I mean? It's to the best of our ability. Now, the evolution is evident. I mean, you know, y'all brothers, y'all juicing, y'all plant-based, you see y'all out there exercising in the morning. But what do you do when a brother comes up to y'all
Starting point is 00:43:56 and say, yo, I stabbed somebody to the locks back in the day? I shot somebody to some locks music back in the day? I hear that all the time. I hear that all the time. Salute that. I hear that all the time. Yo, you got me through my bid and this and that. And yo, I be wilding to y'all, son. I be like, yo, that's what's up.
Starting point is 00:44:16 I be feeling horrible. I ain't gonna lie. I apologize. I say I feel horrible. I say we got to both do better. You know what I mean? But it happens. You know what I mean? I it happens. Like, you know what I mean? I was part of the energy, and you understand it,
Starting point is 00:44:28 but that's all of our process in moving forward. So we take those exact moments to say, all right, that happened. That happened with us. Now we got to move forward and do better. You know what I mean? Now, you guys have been together for a long time as a group, and not one time have we heard of the Lox fighting, beefing, bickering, and you one time have we heard of the locks fighting, beefing,
Starting point is 00:44:46 bickering, and you don't hear that with groups at all. So how have you guys stayed so solid throughout the times? Because, I mean, your brothers got to fight once in a while. Keep it behind the door, man. Once we got any disagreements, we go in, chew everybody's, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:01 get you ventilate amongst each other, curse each other out, whatever. When we leave, when we go out the door and close it, all that stuff stays in the door, inside. Keep the respect for each other. And it definitely won't be on those social media, none of that, ever. It's true. Who gets cursed out the most?
Starting point is 00:45:23 Probably Kiss. Definitely. Probably Kiss. Definitely. Probably Kiss. What? I don't know. What? Styles R. He's a single child, man.
Starting point is 00:45:34 So am I. You grew up with Uncle Edo right there. Yeah, yeah. True, true, true. You had to share the room with Uncle E. You know what I mean? Kids, they have to share rooms. You know what I mean? So he's a to share rooms. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:45:46 So he's a Gemini, man. Yeah, that's why I was going to say you beat me too. He a Gemini. He's crazy. Like one of the best sources of material for bars nowadays? It's the new wave. Yeah. You got to use it to your advantage.
Starting point is 00:45:59 Don't let it disrupt your mentality or your mental. You know what I mean? That's it. about what about the my america record no i joined this fire like um you know we started some real stuff on there it took a lot it actually took a lot to make that record yeah i mean late night yeah that was i wish we could have documented that session it was a rough one yeah what happened in this session it was so rough about it people are gonna do it a little bit, you know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:28 It brought me back. It brought me back to a lot of things I was going through. So I was trying to express it. But Luce called me and I heard the thing and it just touched my soul. And then just trying to get through it. It was very hard to lay, you know. But made it through. They hugged me, got me liquor, left me a lump, gave me left me a lump, came back, checked on me, said, you good?
Starting point is 00:46:48 I had to scream, had to yell, had to cry. But the verse came out. On the record, you say, you talk about how you done cried so much, you almost tired of crying. Hell yeah. Especially now, COVID, black people, racism. It's every day you kind of cry now. It gets sad sometimes.
Starting point is 00:47:08 You know what I mean? Very, very dark times. I was wondering when I'm hearing the song and I'm listening, I'm like, what's an ideal America for y'all? Wow. That's a great question. I think an ideal America for me is definitely where
Starting point is 00:47:23 we get some equality, first and foremost. You know what I mean? We ain't got to be worried about our kids when they go outside. A fair shot. A fair shot for our children. Point blank. I think we've been spiritually attacked for so long that the toll is too much now.
Starting point is 00:47:39 You know what I mean? And I think we just need some equality and fairness as human beings. It's been far, far too long. And I think the whole world just as human beings should want to step up. It's a lot of black and white kids mix, a lot of mixed races. You know, it's so much division that it's just overwhelmingly painful. We got more with the locks when we come back. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:48:01 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got the locks in the building. Now, you know, I wanted to ask, you know, watching the versus battle, right, and watching so many people give the flowers, the kiss,
Starting point is 00:48:15 did that make you guys want to say, you know what, the locks should do a versus? Because, I mean, you've got so many joints, and so many people forget about some of the street anthems and records, and all the bangers that you guys put out. Is that something that you guys would think about doing? We've been asked that. I think we need to do one. I would love for the Lox to do one because Versus is one of the only platforms
Starting point is 00:48:37 where it don't matter about your accolades. It don't matter what you sold. You get up there and strategize your playlist accordingly. It's about that. You know what I mean? It's got to be the right verses, though. It's all about cultural catalog with the verses. That's it.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Absolutely. Yeah. Who would it be? Who would it be against? I don't know, man. I think that y'all have a very unique space in rap. Like, I can't even, like, who's the three-man rap groups? Ain't none.
Starting point is 00:49:10 That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't, the lock is a very unique place in rap. I always say they have to be, like, Dipset or, like, but, you know, they're not really a group, right? It's just a bunch of different artists. G-Unit is a bunch of different artists. It could be, like, Outkast. We go against Outkast.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Dipset's a group. Or maybe it has to be like Outkast. We're going against Outkast. It's such a group. I mean, it could be D-Block versus D-Block versus Lops. That's what you always say. Everybody ain't even together no more, man. One strike, you can't and only Havoc
Starting point is 00:49:39 can show up without P because P died. But everything else, if you call it a group and only two members show up, you already lost. You know what I mean? We ain't going for none of that. That's how I felt watching 112.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Two members. There was only 11 there. What did y'all think when y'all seen JD Kiss and he was drunk and high? I thought he was good. I thought he was, you know. I wasn't high, Envy. That's why I was so drunk.
Starting point is 00:50:12 They didn't let me smoke, man. They lined me up. He was regular. He was kind of like. Yeah, that was regular. He was regular. They see me like that. They always see me like that.
Starting point is 00:50:21 Yeah, that's show time. I looked like that to the world, but to them, I was regular. That's right before the show, man. You know how it go. You know what I mean? So that's right before the show energy. So I was drunker than him, to be honest, watching it. Oh, celebrating it?
Starting point is 00:50:37 It was. They said, we had the paper towel bandana on and all that. Yeah, I had to go. I had to throw it back, man. You know what I mean? I was chilling watching that. That was a good joint though, man. Really fun. Now the record Do To Me, is it
Starting point is 00:50:51 difficult even at this stage in y'all career to go in there and make those kind of records? Because they're almost like radio, woman-friendly records. We actually had fun making that. We all was in Cali at Scott Storch Crib.
Starting point is 00:51:09 We had fun. We made like three records that night. So it wasn't, you know, young locks would have been a little stubborn to that kind of song. But like I said, we've grown up now. So I know a record you probably love styles was Think of the Locks.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Definitely. Yeah, definitely. Zelda was Think of the Locks. Definitely. The Billy the Butcher. Yeah, shout out to the Selzer, man. Now, Griselda reminds me of the locks. I don't know if they're a group, but they remind me of the locks. Yeah, yeah, the new locks. They got some Aloe Wax Offspring. They got that energy. They definitely got
Starting point is 00:51:39 that raw, authentic, sweet energy. We salute and we give a big nod to what they do. All the younger fellas who carry the torch and what we do, we like to salute. We ain't no old grumpy dudes, man. We like some of the new guys, man. A hundred percent. When y'all go in the studio
Starting point is 00:51:55 with them, I know you think I gotta bust their ass, though. Absolutely. That's the same mindset as everybody. We got that mindset with each other. That's how we rap with each other. When I hear Kissy Styles, I'm like, man, I got to go in. Period.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Word. Well, I need to ask about that because I'm listening to the album and I got to say, man, Sheik, I think I might have to give you MVP on this album, man. Yeah, I was getting busy, right? You was in the zone. I'm not going to lie. You was in the zone. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:24 I like having fun, man. I like having fun, man. I like having fun, and that's it. So what got into you? Like, what was the inspiration? What made you say, I'm about to really go in on this one? I got... My brothers, man. And then in the world, whoever's sleeping on me, I'm like, dude, silverback, I'm here. Let's get it.
Starting point is 00:52:40 And I think, too, we heard styles, music, we heard Kiss. We haven't heard Sheikah long time Sheik Like we heard Styles music We heard Kiss We haven't heard Sheik In a minute So Absolutely I should hear you as well
Starting point is 00:52:48 Wow that's dope Absolutely yeah Appreciate that man So Kiss and Styles When y'all When y'all hear it in the album And y'all like damn Sheik going in
Starting point is 00:52:56 You know Kiss you like damn Styles going in Styles like damn Kiss going in How does that make y'all feel As MCs It's a win for the team You know what I mean It ain't like When it a win for the team. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:53:05 It ain't like, when it's us, it's a win. You know what I mean? Absolutely. That's like crutches. It's crutches. Yeah. Then we get his ass on the next one. Enough people say that.
Starting point is 00:53:21 I'm just planning to get his ass on the next one. It's all war, remixes and everything, bro. But, no, that's a beautiful thing. I think that's what keeps our brotherhood. We ain't a – if one is winning, we're all winning. And anytime I go first anywhere, I already know I was set up for failure. Anytime you lead off a track with these two, I be like, you know, I'm just doing my part, man.
Starting point is 00:53:46 But, nah, it's all love, man. We kill shit. That's what we do. What feelings did the Rough Riders documentary bring out of y'all, sitting back and watching that? What was it like reliving those moments? Beautiful. I actually watched it all last night.
Starting point is 00:54:00 I ain't never watched it until last night. I watched all of them at once. I thought it was amazing. Yeah, I just watched. I binge-watch, I watched all of them at once. I thought it was amazing. Yeah, I just watched. I binge-watched all five parts last night at once after my son's birthday party. I joined the show. Yeah, happy birthday to them, man.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Word. Word. Yeah, good luck. It was stuff that I didn't even know about on that double. Yeah, I learned some history about them before they actually got to us. I didn't know some of that stuff. Really? I like how Wild was on his D-Bowl, his Suge Knight.
Starting point is 00:54:32 I didn't even know that about him. He's so calm and cool. You know what I mean? Wild was going in his living room. Y'all didn't know none of that, how he got y'all off the contract and the DMX. Y'all didn't know none of that? We knew some of that, but me and him... No, we knew about us. We didn't know
Starting point is 00:54:47 some of the other stuff. Everything with us, we knew. But I thought it was always like D and his homies, but you know, smart. Yeah. I like watching it. I appreciate watching it and just seeing from how long we made it from Bad Boy to Ruck Rider
Starting point is 00:55:04 to now, and that evolution just felt pretty much really dope. Like, you know what I mean? Because I finished it up last night, too. And I think, you know, I finished it up just as the album was coming out. So, it was just kind of, you know, like, wow, we've been here for a while. Holding it still look good. Still rhyme good. From our draft class, a lot of people, you know, they don't get the love or the light we get
Starting point is 00:55:25 or the support from the people, you know what I mean? Been able to balance the streets and sort of the mainstream out. So it's kind of really, and we was extremely good. Jesus Christ. Extremely what? Ghetto. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Ghetto. They have no idea. Word. So that was beautiful. What are you comparing it to, those styles? ghetto oh yeah ghetto mercy they have no idea yeah word so that was beautiful what are you comparing it to those styles cause when I see it I just see some young brothers
Starting point is 00:55:50 from the hood trying to make it like what's what is ghetto for one I mean a lot of tactics
Starting point is 00:55:55 yeah throw in the chair and puff I'm glad they edited that whole Boston thing the way they did yeah I was glad I was was glad on the Boston.
Starting point is 00:56:05 I was really glad on the Boston edit, the horse. Just, you know, because I don't know. We was cattle. The Boston story was great. I was all the way in South Carolina at the time, and there wasn't no social media then, and I heard about that story. I'm like, how did I know about this? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:22 No, it was all over the radio. It was like the locks held it down. Social media, we would have just been getting out of jail right now. Social media, we would have just been getting out right now. That's a fact. Do y'all think they covered enough?
Starting point is 00:56:37 As far as y'all are concerned, or is there more of a story? It's still some stuff for us. A lot to tell about us. That's why we got the documentary coming. It's a whole lot of us. I think the lock story is going to be dope. When is the documentary coming? We're trying to get a home for it now.
Starting point is 00:56:52 It's done, yeah. We got more with the locks when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ MV Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got the locks in the building. Charlamagne. I wonder if y'all going to address this on the doc,
Starting point is 00:57:08 because I ain't seen it on the Rough Rider doc. I never knew DMX was throwing shots at y'all on that record, Trina Moe, off the Great Depression album. What was that about? What'd he say? What's that about? Trina Moe? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:23 How'd that go? Yeah. I wasn't really. How'd that go? Yeah. It's something with the notion. I wasn't really into that album because I was looking at this list and it was Dish Records you didn't know was Dish Records. And it was like DMX, Trina Moe. Because I guess he was mad that y'all – I don't know what he was mad about, they said. That's why I'm asking about it.
Starting point is 00:57:42 You got me. That's new to me. I never heard about that. He just tried to throw me off just now. We'll call him after this. We'll call him after this. Yeah, I got to call him and switch after this. You just opened up a can.
Starting point is 00:57:54 You just opened up a can. Have y'all ever had friction, though? Of course. Can't be successful without friction. Yeah. X is our OG, though. X, you know, he been running around a little before us, a lot before us.
Starting point is 00:58:10 He even still sound fresh on move on. I mean, on basketball. Yeah. He came in the studio ready. He was on time and everything. Came in the studio ready to work. Yeah. Why do you think Yonkers don't get the credit they deserve for
Starting point is 00:58:27 all that's contributed to the coaching? From Mary to the Lox, to X. Not one of the boroughs. UVD. Yeah. Well, that area. For one, you didn't know where it was at at first. They was asking me as a captain. Yeah, and then all that. They was charging us as upstate.
Starting point is 00:58:43 They just called Mount Vernon and New Rochelle and all that. And so we came on the scene. And I think all the acts you just named as far as X, Mary, and ourselves, we just give you ourselves. Like, we happen to just get successful from being ourselves. We're not selling you anything extra. Like, all the movements you see, all the vibes you see, anything you see from us,
Starting point is 00:59:05 we ain't riding any industry waves. We don't follow the guidelines. We do what we do. We do it how we do it. I think we do, but it's just like, it's raw. It's a raw salute. It's not all the glamoring
Starting point is 00:59:22 blitz and the hoopla. I don't think no R&B singer in the world could beat Mary in the first place. That's just my opinion. You know what I mean? Not even close. Like, you know what I mean? So she's, you know, the greatest, one of the greatest female R&B singers of all time. I never thought of that.
Starting point is 00:59:38 You're right. You're right. It would have to be like, who would it be? Mariah? Or like, it's got to be like Aretha Franklin or somebody. None of that count for Versus. Every chick that's going to look at Versus, they'll mop their kitchen to Mary's old catalog.
Starting point is 00:59:55 That's what I'm talking about. It's not even close. So I think when you just make raw, organic, authentic music, and you come from a place like where we come from, you see the attitude we give off and that energy. See if you, you know, you gonna ride with it or not ride with it. Absolutely. Do you think y'all made the bar too high for young,
Starting point is 01:00:15 or not just y'all, but when you got X, when you got Mary, when you got the locks, if you are young artists from Yonkers, that's a very high bar. I think the bar was high. It definitely was high back then. But right now, these people don't care right now. They ain't even thinking about what they're talking about.
Starting point is 01:00:30 Yeah, it is. I think you gotta use your resources. I think you gotta use your resources because I think that was one of the sporty thieves. Downfalls is not doing those songs with the Lox, X, Mary. That hurt them. So coming from YL, if you get in the game,
Starting point is 01:00:46 you got to utilize your YL resources. But that's crazy. I didn't even know Sporty T was from Yonkers until you said that. See? I didn't even know that. I thought they was from Jersey. I went to school with one of them,
Starting point is 01:01:00 and one of them lived on my block for his whole life. What do you think that was? They just didn't know how to approach y'all? They tried to. They knew us. We cool with them. We never had beef with them. They just tried to do it without the powers of the town.
Starting point is 01:01:15 They just wanted to do it without connection. They wanted to say they stood on their own. Independent, yeah. I heard that bit them in the ass in the long run. And you know what I think it is, too? If you think about, again, think about X story, think about Mary's story, think about our story, I think a lot of people don't know what it took for us
Starting point is 01:01:33 and how long it took and, you know, all our trials and tribulations. And we tried. Lucia tell you we tried, and we tried. But anybody who's gonna pop in the time, we gonna support it. You know, timeless music is always relevant, man, but does it ever disappoint you?
Starting point is 01:01:49 I'll put you in, like, a little dark state when you realize, like, the content of Filthy America is still so relevant right now. Like, that could have been the album y'all put out today. Yeah, no. Yeah. Some kind of song's always gonna get overlooked. Those type of messages, those type of...
Starting point is 01:02:05 So you just got to hope people like yourself absorb it and able to appreciate it. You know what I mean? Maybe a few years they'll look back and say, oh, this was something we should have paid more attention to. You know what I mean? Yeah. I think just the state of where we're at,
Starting point is 01:02:21 like you're saying, and think about it, how that could work. Right now it is depressing. But try to see the light at the state of where we at, like you're saying, and think about it, how that could work. Right now, it is depressing. But try to see the light at the end of the tunnel and understand that we at the boiling point. We've been at the boiling point for a long time. So, you know, it may get a lot worse, may get a little worse,
Starting point is 01:02:39 but change is definitely going to happen. It's inevitable. This idiot Trump on TV talking about I've done more for the blacks and this and that. Dude, we don't need you to do for us. We just make it fair so we can do for ourselves. Period. That's a bar.
Starting point is 01:02:54 That's definitely a bar. That's a bar. I feel like that with all politicians, though. I don't need you to do for us. Just make it fair so we can do for ourselves. I like that. Yep. We got to start buying the politicians, man.
Starting point is 01:03:05 That's what it is. At the end of the day, we have no... I don't want to quote... I don't know the doctor's name. I think it's Dr. Tisdale. I could be wrong. Taisy Tisdale. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:15 If you don't have economical power, like you said, we don't mean nothing. We'll kill a lot of other races in this country besides black people. We have no economical power. I feel the Dem dems the blue side and the red side both two birds i mean two you know two wings of one bird um what have we gotten out of this party the constant like it's the same constitution no matter what party you pick it's still the same constitution that was made when we were slaves and women didn't count for anything so everything else in the world has advanced and changed from
Starting point is 01:03:45 clothes to technology to the microphone we on to the way they speak to light to everything. Everything has advanced except this constitution that was made by racist white men hundreds of years ago. So how is the Republican Party going to work for anybody?
Starting point is 01:04:02 I think you're talking about Darity Styles. Dr. Darity, William Dar anybody. I think you're talking about Darity Styles. Dr. Darity, William Darity. Yeah, I think you're being right. Kiss, how far are you running, Kiss? You've been running for a long time. How far do you run? I'm actually power walking. I go from White Plains, Church Ave,
Starting point is 01:04:17 Church Ave in White Plains to the Kensico Dam. I go up the stairs a few times. It's about eight and a half miles. I see people walking past you like you're on the block, like, yo, Dust, the album is dope, kid. Yeah, I see some people here having it. I usually see having it here every morning,
Starting point is 01:04:34 riding his bike. All right. That's dope. We don't want to keep you off of your workouts. I see Styles. He dressed ready to go for a run. He said he's going at about 2 o'clock today. He's going around 2. Yeah, I get my little three miles in.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Looch got to go after he watch The Price is Right. Absolutely. Y'all the man. Everything stop for The Price is Right. You got to get Looch on The Price is Right. That's right. Get me on there, kid. You want to do Love It, girl?
Starting point is 01:04:55 Lico. Huh? You want to do Price is Right? Hell yeah. Hell yeah. He loves it. He don't do nothing until he watch The Price is Right. He can't go to the studio.
Starting point is 01:05:04 He can't have a meeting Even on family vacation I go upstairs to my room real quick Yeah, you gotta watch the prices right Yo, that would be one of the highest rated Prices right ever If Sheik Looch is on the prices right one more And I'm a win, and I'm a hack a fool
Starting point is 01:05:19 Yo, they call me up there I'm like, yo, that ain't Looch Come on down. Burt. I want to just salute y'all on being legends, man. Y'all longevity in the game. That needs to be celebrated. You know what I mean? It needs to be celebrated that 20 years
Starting point is 01:05:36 later, y'all on your third album. Absolutely. Much love, King. Thank you. Y'all be safe. Have Thank you. Love y'all. Y'all be safe. Have a good one, y'all. Cool. It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Starting point is 01:05:52 Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixture. So like a donkey. Donkey of the Day. The practice club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but Donkey of the Day is a new one. Donkey of the Day goes to a hip-hop music producer named J.W. Lucas. I have never heard of this individual in my life.
Starting point is 01:06:15 Didn't know he existed until yesterday. Envy, you ever heard of him? No, I haven't. Angelina, you ever heard of him? Nope. Okay, but he's produced for Lil Uzi, Jack Harlow, DaBaby, and Pop Smoke. So says the Shade Room and Genius. I feel like I am giving this man what he wants and what he seems to want is attention. I don't know how or why you wake up and go to your social
Starting point is 01:06:35 media and open up your Twitter and decide to tweet out something like this. This is what J.W. Lucas tweeted out. Why is the world asking for justice for hashtag Breonna Taylor? Of course she shouldn't have lost her life. But do you realize that she was involved with multiple drug dealers who were using her house as a trap spot? If you sign up for that life, there are consequences. End tweet. He actually posted that.
Starting point is 01:06:58 Those words came out of his thumbs. First of all, none of that is true. None of that is true. Let's just start there. None of that is true. none of that is true let's just start there none of that is true we should all know the story of brianna taylor by now uh if you don't here's a quick recap shortly after midnight on march 13th louisville police officers executing a search warrant used the battering ram to enter the apartment of 26 year old brianna taylor contrary to jw lucas's dumbass tweet she was not a trap queen. She was an emergency room technician.
Starting point is 01:07:26 All right? She was in bed with her husband, I mean, her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker. Okay? When they both heard the door get banged down, it was a brief exchange. And Kenneth did what I believe any human in America who owns a firearm would do if someone broke into his house, and that's let the hammer fly. All right? That's exactly what the right to bear arms is all about. Okay?
Starting point is 01:07:43 The Second Amendment is the right for people to possess weapons for their own defense. There is not a man, woman or child in America who owns a gun, who knows how to fire a gun, who would not have done the same thing in that situation. OK, Kenna fired. Police fired back this situation, but the main problem was police had been investigating two men who they believed were selling drugs out of a house that was far from Ms. Taylor's home. Okay, but a judge had also signed a warrant allowing the police to search Ms. Taylor's residence because the police said they believed that one of the two men had used her apartment to receive packages. No drugs were found in the apartment. Okay? None. The police report contained multiple errors. They listed Breonna Taylor's injuries as none,
Starting point is 01:08:30 even though she had been shot eight times. And they say they did not force their way into the apartment, though they used the battering ram to break the door open. And police had already located the main suspect in the investigation by the time they decided to run up in Brianna's apartment. So they had who they were looking for already, okay? The moral of the story is J.W. Lucas doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, and only in America will a white man find a way to defend the oppressor while making the oppressed a victim. Now, I saw
Starting point is 01:09:01 on Hollywood Unlocked and The Shade Room yesterday where one of our fearless leaders, Queen Tamika Mallory, drop on the clues, Bon, for Tamika Mallory, speaking to J.W. Lucas, some people said Tamika was wasting her time. I don't think standing up for Breonna Taylor or any black person who has lost their life due to systemic racism is a waste of time. I thought maybe this guy, J.W. Lucas, would have come to his senses and let Tamika talk some sense into him after being corrected, but no. Let's listen. Extremely racist for
Starting point is 01:09:32 a white man to try to tell black people what we are doing, where we need to go, what our issues are. That is part of the gated institutional narrative. Tamika, I should be a leader in the Black Lives Matter movement because I'm more capable than you. Yes, I should be a leader in the Black Lives Matter movement because I'm more capable than you. Yes, I am. You don't understand the nature of reality. All negative externalities
Starting point is 01:09:52 must be eliminated. The people that you do business with to make a decision about whether or not what you're saying and the propaganda and the lies that you're spreading is something that they should continue to support. So what I promise you is that you will have to deal with me for the rest of your life because anybody you do business with i'm going to show up to make sure that they know that you are a racist and that your rhetoric and the tone that you're using is extremely dangerous and that you disrespected the life of a young 26-year-old woman. Never. Never. I will not accept that. That's and it shows your colors.
Starting point is 01:10:29 You don't give a about decreasing problems, Tamika. You care about getting your own political game. Did you hear the white privilege oozing out of his pores? First of all, people really need to watch their tone when it comes to talking to queens like Tamika Mallory.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Second of all, for him to say he can lead the movement better than Tamika. What do you even say to that? Like, what's your response? Why do you even dignify that with a response? Why does he feel comfortable talking like that and saying he could lead the movement better than Tamika? You know why? Because he's a white man talking to a black person, especially a black woman. So it's a level of superiority and privilege that just comes with that.
Starting point is 01:11:12 All right? Sexism, racism, we already know what it is. Now, keep in mind, he's a hip-hop producer. So he was also on last night talking hip-hop. Listen to what this man said about our culture. You're calling me a culture vulture when I am telling you that I bring more to hip-hop culture than anyone in it, period. He does more for hip-hop
Starting point is 01:11:30 than anyone in it? That's crazy. And I've never even heard of you until yesterday, okay? The carcassity, the unmitigated, ghostly, pale gall of this human. You know, JW,
Starting point is 01:11:40 feel how you want to feel. Say what you want to say. It's America. You have that right. Do your thing. But there has to be consequences and repercussions for people who talk like this. See, you can have freedom of speech, but you cannot be free of the consequences of said speech. And this is why we need our own version of, like, the Sovereign Poverty Law Center or the ADL,
Starting point is 01:12:00 these organizations that fight against bigotry and racism. When someone does or says something that's offensive to our culture, hip-hop, blackness, we should be organized or have an organization that lets people know this ain't welcome. We see it happen to people all the time, but for some reason, when it comes to hip-hop and blackness, people are just allowed to continuously disrespect us and nobody says anything. All right. Nothing happens. Case in point, as I've said before, we can't even get the cops who kill us fired. We can't even get people canceled when they kill us. So, of course, someone like J.W. Lucas feels comfortable disrespecting us on all levels while making money in and off our culture.
Starting point is 01:12:45 Jay Lucas, today is a nice day. I don't know where you're located in the world, but it's summertime. I know you're in America. It's summertime, and it's nice out. So at some point today, I want you to go outside barefoot if you can. Put your feet in the ground, okay? Get grounded, all right? Take a few deep ocean breaths.
Starting point is 01:13:04 Make sure your inhales and exhales are long, full, and deep. After you do that, look up. Look up, look up, look up. There is a star at the center of the solar system. It's the shine on your white skin, and say to yourself, sun, scream it, sun, and then spell it to yourself, S-U-N. Give me a S, give me a U, give me a N, and let it be a reminder to you that sun means shut up, n***a.

Oh, my gosh. Y'all got to listen. Let's be clear. People will get into a fight over a game of spades. That's kind of the initiator. Were y'all drinking?
Starting point is 01:17:35 Yeah, I was drinking. He was drinking. But you know what I'm saying? He even picked up a bottle and swung it at me. I'm going to tell you something. The one time when I was growing up, there was a big fight. It was my 21st birthday. I had a party at my parents' house, and the fight was over a game of spades,
Starting point is 01:17:50 and somebody did grab a bottle, break it, try to stab somebody. Someone pulled out a baseball bat, a gun. They broke through the glass. Things got very out of hand. At your family house? Yes. My dad will tell you this story, and I'm going to tell you who was involved in that fight. Benny Boom, the director.
Starting point is 01:18:08 But anyway, so I will say a couple of things. Your girl was telling you to chill. Your wife was telling you to chill because she knows her dad, right? Right. And you didn't chill. Right. And then things escalated. That part.
Starting point is 01:18:23 I still need five minutes. Right. You still need five minutes. Right. I still need five minutes. So the issue, you don't want to be fighting with your wife's father. Like, that's just out of order. It's unnecessary. Y'all ain't even got no real problem with each other, right? Right.
Starting point is 01:18:36 I'm from Florida, though. Okay. What does that mean? What does that got to do with anything? You know what it means. You know what it means? Listen, what's more important to you? Your wife or your pride?
Starting point is 01:18:49 Instagram, Facebook, Instagram, Facebook, nothing. Block numbers, everything. Everything got to go. I'm a Libra also. Like, I keep telling her, like, listen, man, you got to get rid of all that. I don't even play. Like, your aunt, she's the one that said don't call the police her house. I'm like, I'm cool with her.
Starting point is 01:19:04 The daughter, I'm cool with that one. But the rest of them, there's nothing. You can't have no conversation. We can just go ahead and, you know what I'm saying? You can't tell her she can't talk to her family. Who can't? That's her family. Who can't?
Starting point is 01:19:20 Don't make that woman choose between her man and her family now. Come on, that's not fair. Why not? Goodness gracious. What if she told you she don't want you talking to your family members? I have to respect that we won. Listen, if you guys are one, what does she think about all this? Because you also have to, being one also means you got to respect her feelings also.
Starting point is 01:19:41 It ain't just, she got to do what you want. You're not giving me no good answer. I'm not giving you the answer you want to respect her feelings also. It ain't just she got to do what you want. You're not giving me no good answer. I'm not giving you the answer you want to hear, right? Definitely. You got to love Florida, man. What is she saying about this?
Starting point is 01:19:57 What is your wife saying? Nothing. She was fighting with me. Okay, so y'all are one. That's good. She was fighting with you. She was on your side, right? Yeah. Listen, first, I'll say this. Thank goodness for this quarantine for you guys right now because you have no reason to be around those people. Am I right?
Starting point is 01:20:14 You're right. You're right. So, maybe what needs to happen is you need a cool down period. I've been trying. I'm telling you, I can't even sleep at night right now. I can't even go to sleep. It happened like three weeks ago. I ain't been to sleep. You might have some anger issues, sir. I'm telling you, I can't even sleep at night right now. I can't even go to sleep. It happened like three weeks ago. I ain't been to sleep. You might have some anger issues, sir.
Starting point is 01:20:29 I do. I do. So this is a great time for you to be working on yourself, right? You should never let somebody else affect you to the point where you can't sleep at night. You don't get it. You want your five minutes, huh? Hey, Charlamagne though? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:43 I'm right here, King. You want him to tell you to fight your wife's dad? I'm listening to you dig a hole for yourself. You don't... Boy, you don't sit your dumb ass down somewhere. What you need to do is, you need to do some online therapy right now. Talk to somebody about these anger issues that you're having.
Starting point is 01:21:02 Might not be a bad idea, and I already know what you're going to say about this. But it might not be a bad idea for you to go and look up some YouTube videos and learn how to do some meditation and some yoga. So you might center yourself. But what I will tell you is this. One thing you have to learn, and I've learned this too, is do not let other people control your emotions. Do not let other people control your anger. Once they start doing that, they have control over you. You have to learn how to take control of emotions. Do not let other people control your anger. Once they start doing that,
Starting point is 01:21:25 they have control over you. You have to learn how to take control of yourself and you can only, only thing you can do is handle how you react to other people, okay? So take control of yourself,
Starting point is 01:21:35 your emotions and all of those things and don't give people that power where you're up at night. You're right. Learn some karate, bro. Ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha. I took you up and through there, bro. You tripping. All right, go Learn some karate, bro.

Starting point is 01:22:03 Learn something, brother. Good luck. Ask. En something, brother. Good luck. Ask. Envy, envy. I'm nice with the hands. I was trying to be respectable. And that old man threw you all around that house. Yeah, that old man, he put that old man's cramp on your ass and you couldn't do nothing with it.
Starting point is 01:22:17 And that's okay. Respect your elders. That's all God tried to show you. I feel like what really happened is her father beat you up and you want to make sure you get some revenge. I don't know. That's exactly what happened. And you're like, this is what I should have did.
Starting point is 01:22:27 I could have did this. I want to go back and prove myself. No, you took the L because you love your wife. That's all. Respect your elders. And here's the thing. Her father would never respect you anyway so he definitely don't respect you after he whipped your ass. Alright, well have a good one, man. Ask him. He hung up man ask ye you definitely hung up
Starting point is 01:22:45 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice hit ye right now it's the breakfast club morning everybody it's DJ Envy Angela Ye Charlamagne Tha Guy
Starting point is 01:23:04 we are the breakfast club we're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hi, I want to stay anonymous. All right, anonymous. What's your question for Yee? Okay, so me and my husband have been married almost two years now. Before I started dating him, I was dating a lot of women. So I'm not really like experienced with like the oral stuff for men so I tried and he didn't like it so we haven't had oral sex in a while but
Starting point is 01:23:36 I feel confident in my ability to perform where he can be pleased but he won't take me seriously because it's been so long since he's had it. Okay. So you know what you're doing now? You feel confident? Well, I don't, I wouldn't know. I don't even know if I, I feel confident, but I don't know if it's going to be right until, you know, I actually try, but he won't let me try because he doesn't want to be a
Starting point is 01:24:01 guinea pig and end up with some abrasions on his penis. Yeah. So I'm trying to figure out how to set it up to where he can be comfortable enough to allow me to see, OK, what progression I've made and then go from there. OK, so look, this is what I think. Right. Before you guys get to it, when you're doing your foreplay, you should ask him, can I just kiss it? I'm not going to do anything more than that. And then you should kiss it. And then you should tongue kiss it. And then you should just do a little bit more, a little bit more until, you know, he's feeling good about it. And then, you know, that's when you go a little bit more.
Starting point is 01:24:39 But just make sure that you keep your mouth very lubricated. Don't use your teeth. Tuck them away. Okay. But I think you just got it. You keep your mouth very lubricated. Don't use your teeth. Tuck them away. Okay. But I think you just got it. I think you just got it. Now I'm starting to feel less confident. Why does it sound like you're talking about Envy bike riding?
Starting point is 01:24:54 What? No, we're definitely not talking about that. But I just, listen, just start it off. So just say, look, I'm just going to kiss it. I'm not going to do anything else. And then when you kiss it, right, kissing could mean anything. It could be closed mouth, open mouth. And then, you know, just play around with that area.
Starting point is 01:25:10 And then if he likes it, he'll be okay with you going a little further. How would I know if he likes it, though? Ask him. Because as a man, he may just accept it just because the love of me as his wife, but he may not want to actually tell me that he's enjoying what's happening. So I'm trying to figure out what signs I should look for. Well, first of all, there's nothing better than asking a direct question. And you can ask it like, okay, do you like that?
Starting point is 01:25:38 Well, tell me what you want me to do and I'm going to do it. And be like, how would you like it better? Well, you know, just ask those questions, but you can do it in a sexy way so that he's going to direct you to the way to do it. And be like, how would you like it better? Well, you know, just ask those questions, but you could do it in a sexy way so that he's going to direct you to the way to do it and just be like, look, tell me what to do. Uh-huh. Okay, well, I will try that and I'll let you know how it goes.
Starting point is 01:25:54 Thank you. I cannot wait to hear about it. All right, you guys have a good morning. You too. And that was another edition of the service. She had a real question. You too. And that was another edition of the next service. She had a real question. Alright. It really did sound like you was talking about DJ Envy riding
Starting point is 01:26:11 his bike though. I'm not gonna lie. Why? Because that's what he was visualizing. I had to think about it. I was like, what is she talking about? I'm a married man. You got these fantasies about me and I don't like it. I'm starting to feel uncomfortable. You're a liar! What's wrong with you? Ask Yee.
Starting point is 01:26:28 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. E-J-N-V Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Angela Yee is out, so today we're doing Ask C-N-E.
Starting point is 01:26:44 Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is John Longstreet. John Longstreet, okay. What's up, John Longstreet? How you doing, Ken? Hey, I'm calling from Sykeston, Missouri, 573. Y'all should come out here sometime, eat at Lambert's, home of the Thoreau Rose.
Starting point is 01:27:00 But anyways, my question is, you know, me and my wife, we're having our anniversary tomorrow. I was just seeing what I could do to keep it spicy. We've been married for four years, so I'm trying to try something different. Four years. Okay. All right. You got two different married men here. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:27:18 One is flavored with lemon cakes. The other is chocolate. So let's start with the lemon cakes. Well, I'm with the chocolate. So, yeah. Well, since you've been married for four years, we assume that you've eaten the **** before, correct? Oh, yeah. Whoa! I'm just asking.
Starting point is 01:27:32 Some people say, well, I'm not doing that. I'm just making sure. I'm just making sure. So what are you intending to do? What are you going to do for her birthday? Are you taking her out? Are you cooking for her? What are you going to do? We're going to a cabin in Gatlinburg. So we're going to chill, just a little relaxation. That's a good start.
Starting point is 01:27:51 You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's a good start. You got the location. Location is very important. So you got the cabin. So it's just you and the wife in the cabin. That's a great start. What else?
Starting point is 01:27:59 He wants to spice it up, though. He wants to spice it up. Yeah, I want to spice it up a little bit. Yeah, just spice it up. Let me ask you a question. Have you taped yourself, filmed yourself having sex with your wife yet have you taped it yet no i never did that before now you can do that so you can film it since you're gonna be there the whole week and you tape it you and your wife going at it and then y'all watch it later on and
Starting point is 01:28:19 i mean and that'll turn you on that's spicy there's something different but then you make sure you erase it after that's that's that's spicy. There's something different. But then you make sure you erase it after. That's spicy. Absolutely. That's a good idea. Me and Envy got two different approaches. You know what I'm saying? I like to start with the mental and emotional aspect of it. You know, four years is a long time.
Starting point is 01:28:38 You know what I mean? Four years gets you through high school, gets you a bachelor's degree. And I think that you should take this opportunity in that cabin to just remind your wife how much she means to you, how you're the most blessed person in the world to have this beautiful queen by your side. And I think that when you reinforce those things in her mentally, that's going to make the b**** sweater. I don't mean that in the most respectful way possible because it's your wife.
Starting point is 01:29:01 You know what I'm saying? But you start with the mind sex first, then you get to what Envy's talking about. You got to use those that time to just express to her how much the last four years have meant to you and how she's just your
Starting point is 01:29:18 world. Now, you do have a black woman, right? No, she's Mexican. She's white Mexican. Same rules apply. Same rules apply. Same rules apply. Hey, but you know, yeah, but I would definitely do that. I believe with my smooth talk, I went over
Starting point is 01:29:34 either way. Okay. Like you said, start with the mental and then get to the physical and then enjoy it. Have some fun, you know what I mean? Tape it, watch it, and then joke about it, laugh about it, and then race it. All right, absolutely. You mind if I give a shout-out to her?
Starting point is 01:29:49 Go ahead, bro. Of course, give a shout-out to her. Darlene Longstreet, I love you so much, baby. You don't know how much you changed my life, but I love you so much. Happy anniversary to us, all right? Shout-out to Charlemagne Tha God, DJ Envy. All they do, I love watching y'all show, all right?
Starting point is 01:30:06 All right, man. Good luck, man. Appreciate you. All right, y'all have a good one, man. All right, man. Don't let us down. And make sure you buy her
Starting point is 01:30:12 a Black Lives Matter T-shirt. Oh, my goodness. All right. As see in need, keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time.
Starting point is 01:30:24 Pick up the phone, baby. Call 800-585-1051 It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now, if you just joined us, we're asking, ladies, would you date a guy that drives a hoopty?
Starting point is 01:30:47 Now, this came from our conversation with Sherri Shepherd this morning. Let's play a clip. What if he pulled up in a hoopty? Would that matter? You can hoopty on out of here because here's the problem. I'm not putting you down if you got a hoopty. You're working your way there. But you're going to have a problem as a man if you're trying to keep up with me. So now I got to come down here.
Starting point is 01:31:04 What add value are you going to add to this relationship? Because I know what I'm bringing. Our levels are going to be different. And what's ultimately going to end up happening is you may feel affected as a man. So we're asking, would you? Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? This is Lorenzo.
Starting point is 01:31:20 Hey, Lorenzo, would you be the guy that drives a hoopty? Yeah, I drive a hoopty right now. I'm a married man. When I met my wife, I drove a hoopty. But we own rental properties. We got a nice house that we're proud of, and it's not an issue. It's not about where you live. Now, so now, what kind of car do you drive?
Starting point is 01:31:36 Because I want to know your definition of a hoopty, because Envy's definition was all off. Okay, I drive a 2003 Ford Focus right now. Okay, yeah. That's a hoopty. You win. That's the definition of a 2003 Ford Focus right now. Okay, yeah. That's a hoopty. You win. Shut you right up, ye. That is a hoopty.
Starting point is 01:31:52 Now, why don't you get a newer car? I'm just curious. It's just not important to me. I'm more worried about getting more rental properties. I'm more worried about keeping my wife happy and leaving my kids something when I'm gone. That's my focus. There you gone. That's my focus. There you go. That's my Ford focus.
Starting point is 01:32:10 Thank you, brother. Angie, I'm kind of like your dad. You said he always drove a hoopty. I just never really felt comfortable in a nice car, to be honest. This is what I always drive. Really? Would you like it if, like, you know, maybe your wife surprised you and bought you a new car? Would that be dope?
Starting point is 01:32:25 Nah. She better get us another property. There you go. Because you know what? I'm not going to lie, though. Sometimes them cars get old and then you end up spending so much money fixing things. You might as well just get a new car. Nah, get your old hoopty, put a liability on it, and you're good. How much is a new Ford Focus?
Starting point is 01:32:45 Let me see. How much does that run? No, but why are you laughing? Y'all laughing at my car? Is she laughing at your car? No, I'm just trying to see what the owner laughs at your car. This is a wagon. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:32:56 How much can we get for that? Okay. Don't you Ford Focus, Shane? You might get like $3,000 for it. How many miles it got on it? I got like 190. Oh, wow. No, you're not going to get $3,000 for it. How many miles it got on it? Got like 190. Oh, wow. No, you're not going to get $3,000.
Starting point is 01:33:09 You're going to get about $900. You're going to get about $200. You're right. That's a full focus, brother. Yeah. I was just saying, but Sherry was wrong. She was talking about how she's bringing a man up and he can't go where she can go. Men do that with women all the time.
Starting point is 01:33:26 But women expect it. And that's the difference. They expect for a man to take them places they couldn't go and things like that. So it depends. Let's not generalize. There's a lot of places I can go. I can
Starting point is 01:33:42 take myself a lot of places. I get it. And she can take herself a lot of places. So, you know, I get it. And she can take herself a lot of places. So I think her point was, I can do these things. And if he can't do them, then it might hurt his own ego. I just want to give you a lot of props for having that Ford Focus with 200,000 miles, brother. You stay clean out there, man. Hello, who's this? This is Celia.
Starting point is 01:34:03 Hey, Celia. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. We're asking, would you date a guy that drives a hoopty? Well, in my younger days, it wouldn't have been a deal breaker, but I'm in my mid-30s, and I think that if you don't have,
Starting point is 01:34:16 if your life choices haven't led you to at least have a reliable vehicle in your mid-30s, then we'll probably butt heads. What if it's a reliable hoopty? I still think, you know, it should be something up to date and nice. I think a hoopty doesn't go hand-in-hand with reliable. Hoopty to me is like it's run down. It's not up to par. You probably have problems with it.
Starting point is 01:34:37 It's not, you know, it's not something that if you're in your mid-30s that you should be, you know, you should have something nice and reliable. I agree with you. I agree that when you're younger, mid-30s, that you should be, you know, you should have something nice and reliable. I agree with you. I agree that when you're younger, things like that don't matter because we all struggling trying to make it. But when you get to a certain age, you're like, OK, I don't want to have like struggle love anymore. Right. And I understand things happen, but like I don't want to have to weed through like, OK, are you just going through something or is this just who you are? Are you just a person that doesn't make good decisions? You know, at least at least come with a reliable, up-to-date vehicle.
Starting point is 01:35:08 And then he's like, oh, my car broke down. Can I use your car to get to work? Then you're dropping him off at work. I have seven children. Seven children? I don't need eight. How do you fit all those kids in the car? She got a minivan.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Minivan can't sit eight? She got the third row. I can't even believe I'm talking to you. Even with a third row. What kind of car do you got that seats eight? I have a Chrysler Dodge or what is it? A Chrysler Town and Country. You don't even know what she has.
Starting point is 01:35:40 I know. Chrysler Town and Country. There's no way in hell you get all seven kids in that one car. Yes, you can. Three in the middle, three in the back, one in the front. Yeah. And I have teenagers. And sometimes I have my kids and a couple of their friends.
Starting point is 01:35:54 They squeeze in and we make it happen. Lap it up, baby. Goodness gracious. So wait, who gets to ride a shotgun? They all fight over it. So I don't just let my oldest get the shotgun because she's the oldest. If my five-year-old calls it first, then that's who gets it. Now, let's be honest.
Starting point is 01:36:11 We have daily fights and sometimes fist fights over the front seat. When your husband's in the car with you, one of the kids got to sit on the floor.
