Starting point is 00:03:08 a triple-double last night. I guess he was just like, look, this is it for me. The young guys got it and I'm just going to retire, sit back and relax and enjoy my family, which is a great thing. Yeah, the game was sold out last night, of course. Everybody had on Dwayne Wade jerseys. It didn't matter who you were. Yeah, I could imagine. So shout out to Dwayne Wade, man. Happy to see him go out

Now yesterday, I was out and about looking at our properties. I got a chance to close on three properties that we were bidding on. If you know, if you follow me on Instagram, I heavy on hubzoo.com or auction.com
Starting point is 00:03:40 or a lot of those websites and we were able to pick up some properties. One I picked up for like $30,000. Had to put down 3%. So got them very, very, very cheap. And I like to help people. So I know ProStyle's into it. ProStyle at work, at our station. A couple of athletes called me, so I was explaining
Starting point is 00:03:54 and trying to help a lot of people that don't necessarily know about real estate that want to invest, and I don't want to see them get got. I don't want to see them lose money. So if I can help, I try to help as many of our people as possible so they can invest. What up, Charlamagne? Yeah, I needed help yesterday, too, because I had a stomach virus all day. So I was empty in my butt for at least eight, seven to eight hours straight all day yesterday. I can help you with that.
Starting point is 00:04:16 What did you eat? I have no idea. You think it was a stomach virus? Yeah, just a stomach virus going around. I really don't know, man. It just hit me all of a sudden. At first, I was like, damn, what did I eat yesterday? You sit on the toilet that first time, and it's like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:04:30 Yeah, we didn't have to hit that, but go ahead. What did I eat yesterday? But then it's just like, I got sick. So were you naked on the toilet? I always get naked on the toilet. Who doesn't get naked on the toilet? No, there's a stomach bug going around my arm. Let me see.

Starting point is 00:04:58 I was like, nah, I'm not going to make it. So you're wide open right now? I'm good now, I guess, which is weird. And I literally slept for like 12 hours because I got home like 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock. And I'm good now, I guess, which is weird. And I literally slept for like 12 hours. I got home like 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock.

Starting point is 00:05:26 Yes. All right. But I got kale pectate just in case. Well, it's Thursday, so it's Throwback Thursday. So we have a throwback artist joining us this morning. Let your uncles and aunties have this moment now. Throwback group. We got a throwback group.
Starting point is 00:05:37 We should start with the records first. Yeah, you got any of the records up by any chance? You got to let them know what the records are first. Because they might not know the name. I don't want to just say the name. I think they will know the name, but I would rather the records are first. They might not know the name. I don't want to just say the name. I think they will know the name, but I would rather them,
Starting point is 00:05:46 I know for a fact they know the record. And they were referenced by Chris Brown. They were? Yeah. Come on, drum? No, no, that's...
Starting point is 00:05:54 We didn't expect y'all to do this. We did. We had a drum. In a radio station don't have Candy Rain in the goddamn system. He has Soul of Soul up.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Lord have mercy. Right there, that's Candy Rain. Candy Rain, man. You just missed it, man. Young ass, 20-something-year-old boy. Now have mercy. Right there, that's Candy Rain. That's Candy Rain. That's Candy Rain. You just missed it, man. Young ass, 27-year-old boy. There you go. Now play it.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Play Candy. Hey. Okay. This ain't really the right one. No, that's the jam too, though. And then they got the remix with Heavy D on it. You know what I mean? But this is it right here.
Starting point is 00:06:18 This is what we got here today. Hey. No, stop. You don't know. You're a rookie. Boy, you're a rookie. Nope. Way too early.
Starting point is 00:06:25 They got a 20-second intro because it's the radio. So we're really going to be here this morning. Here you go. Breakfast Club. My love, do you ever dream of candy-coated raindrops? You're the same. My candy rain. I'm solo on this one. I'm the lead singer. You guys the same. My candy rain. I'm solo on this one.
Starting point is 00:06:47 I'm the lead singer. You guys have terrible lead singers. Here we go. Have you ever loved someone? Okay. So much you've
Starting point is 00:06:54 So for real, we'll be joining us in a little bit. Yes, sir. I'd help you here today. We'll kick it with Soul For Real. They're offended right now.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Probably. I don't know where Soul For Real has been. Me neither. I don't even know where the hell we found Soul For Real. Me neither.
Starting point is 00:07:03 They definitely found us. Soul For Real has been tracking us down. Yes, they even know where the hell we found Soul For Real. Me neither. They definitely found us first. Soul For Real has been tracking us down. Yes, they have been tracking The Breakfast Club down for a couple years now. A couple years, that's right. So we'll get to hear their story because they came out with smash hits and then... And you know, Uptown Records is one of my top three favorite record labels of all time. So how could we deny Soul For Real on a throwback Thursday? Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Why not? So they'll be joining us next hour. And then we got front page news. What are we talking about, Yee? Well, we talked about the Nets a little bit, but we'll do that some more. Also, breaking news. Julian Assange arrested. You know he's the founder of WikiLeaks. Oh,
Starting point is 00:07:32 okay. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, let's start with Dwayne Wade's last game last night.
Starting point is 00:07:48 He actually, well, the Heat lost to the Nets, the Brooklyn Nets, 113 and 94. So, the Nets are going, of course, as you already know, to the postseason for the first time since 2015. They'll be facing the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round. LeBron was at that game last night, right?
Starting point is 00:08:03 LeBron, Mello was there, Chris Paul. Did the Lakers play yesterday? I mean, I know they're not making the playoffs, but... Apparently not if he was at the game. That's what I was thinking. Well, he wasn't playing anyway, though. You know, he's been out the last, what, 10 games? Still, just because you ain't playing don't mean you just fly to go see somebody else play.
Starting point is 00:08:16 It's guys' last game. Hey, the Lakers ain't doing nothing. Don't need them right now. No. Yeah, so that game was sold out at the Barclays last night. All right, now let's discuss what's happening in D.C. They have this whole hashtag, Don't Mute D.C. All of these protests have been intensifying because of go-go music and gentrification.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Now, there's a store, Metro PCS, on the corner of 7th Street and Florida Avenue, northwest, and usually they play go-go. But unfortunately, somebody's been complaining, a neighbor, about the music. So they've had to turn down that music and not play go-go music anymore. So now they've started this whole protest. Wale joined in on the protest as well. He said you should speak to the go-go community and community activists and a host of others. This is bigger than me.
Starting point is 00:08:55 They await your engagement. A lot of people want to know. This is going to sound stupid. This is why gentrification sucks. But there's a lot of people out there that have no idea what go-go music is. This ain't for them. This conversation ain't for them, man. There's a lot of people that don't know what go- go-go music is. This ain't for them. This conversation ain't for them, man. There's a lot of people that don't know what go-go is.
Starting point is 00:09:06 I mean, it's a very D.C. thing, but it inspires a lot of hip-hop music that we listen to even today. People rock with go-go music. All I'm simply saying is this is why gentrification sucks, because you're complaining about loud go-go music in D.C. It's D.C., all right? You shouldn't have moved there into that community if you didn't want to hear go-go music all the damn time. Heavy drums. That's like coming to Brooklyn and asking them to to hear go-go music all the damn time. Heavy drums. That's like coming to Brooklyn and asking them to turn down the reggae music. It's not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Heavy live instrumentation. Go-go music is dope. I love go-go music. That's out of here. Turn your go-go up, guys. Okay, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was arrested at the London embassy where he had been taking refuge for seven years at the Ecuadorian embassy in London. Now he was granted refuge in 2012 while on bail in the UK over sexual assault allegations against him in Sweden.
Starting point is 00:09:49 At that time, he felt that if he got extradited to Sweden, he might be arrested by the United States and face charges relating to WikiLeaks' publication of hundreds of thousands of U.S. diplomatic cables. If you guys remember all of that drama that happened with all of those documents that were leaking. So in March, they actually cut off his Internet access and he was forbidden from having visitors. But they did say that he had repeatedly violated the conditions of his asylum in the country's London embassy. So he was arrested. That just happened.
Starting point is 00:10:15 OK. All right. And if you have YouTube, by the way, YouTube TV, their prices are going to be going up to nearly $50 a month. So that subscription is going to be increased by $10 to $49.99 a month for everybody. YouTube TV? What the hell is on YouTube TV? I know that we had a movie on YouTube Premium before. We had Bodied on there. I'm a consultant producer on that. But what is YouTube TV? Well, they have like the Discovery
Starting point is 00:10:38 channel and HGTV. They're adding Own as well. So it's like cable. You know, if you have Apple TV and it has the YouTube thing, you can have a YouTube channel. It's just too much. Yeah, that's what I think too. Too many streaming services and too many TV packages.
Starting point is 00:10:50 And everybody's prices are going up. AT&T announced that they're raising the prices of DirecTV. Hulu raised the prices of their live TV by $5 a month. Now Hulu was $45. I'm getting rid of Hulu. Everybody's raising prices.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I'm getting rid of Hulu. Only thing I'm keeping is Netflix and I'm going to get the Disney streaming service when it comes up. My goodness. Alright, well that's front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad

Good morning, guys. The reason I'm calling is because I'm pretty nervous that my seven-month-old daughter is going to have second open-heart surgery. Oh, my goodness. I hate to hear that.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Well, let's have some prayers for her. What's her name so we can pray for her? Her name is London. London Simone. She had her first one when she was eight days old. We knew it was coming, but now that we have, like, a date, it's kind of like, oh, snap, like, reality is actually hitting that she's going to have another one. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Okay, we'll be praying for that. We'll definitely be praying for her. Good luck, Mama. Thank you. You guys, I created a Facebook and Instagram page. I know this is kind of cheesy. Her name is London Simone B. If you guys can just look at her page.
Starting point is 00:12:21 That's not cheesy. There's nothing cheesy about that. Well, good luck, mama. All right. Thank you so much, guys. Okay. Thank you for calling us. Hello.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Who's this? Hey, this is Chandler from Columbus, Ohio. How y'all doing? What's up, Chandler? When black people do something stupid, they need to sit in timeout. So how about DC Young Fly and Little Yachty sit in timeout? Because that how high trailer looks god awful. And Redman and Matt Duman should have called them,
Starting point is 00:12:47 like, T.I. called out, called that black. How old are you, sir? 33. Oh, okay. So you around that age. Well, they younger than you, but I haven't seen the trailer. But I'm pretty sure that they're not catering
Starting point is 00:12:58 to a 33-year-old with that movie. Yeah, they're not catering to nobody with that movie because it looks that terrible. Them kids going to eat it up. Yeah, I don't know. And y'all got to quit putting them action figures in them weird positions, too. I've seen them pictures. What action figures?
Starting point is 00:13:12 Man, y'all know what I'm talking about, man. I'm not playing. What are you talking about? I don't know what you're talking about. What action figures? But have a good morning, bro. Angel. Hey, what's up, Direct Plus Club?
Starting point is 00:13:21 What's up, bro? Get it off your chest, man. Hey, man. I just want to say I don't wish violence against anybody, but I think Kodak Black's comments are worthy of a leg shot. Y'all don't make no sense. And this is what I be talking about when y'all say stupid stuff like, please, Lord, take Kodak and give us Nipsey back.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Like, yo, we don't want to see no violence against black men, period. All right? seat back. Like, yo, we don't want to see no violence against black men, period. Alright? Like, we can't be all, have a little bit in and then a little bit out. You're either all in or you're not. And you could die from a leg shot, sir. Just a leg shot. Nah. You could die from a leg shot, sir. We don't want no violence. We don't want no more

I just wanted to get off my chest that I am a Lyft driver. I'm not your girlfriend. I'm not your best friend.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Please stop getting mad because I don't know where you live at. If the Lyft app don't know where you live at, neither do I, okay? Stop trying to rate me two stars, one star, because it takes me an extra two minutes to figure out what a problem you would have been. Like, come on now. And I offer you candy. That don't mean leave your rappers in my backseat. Oh, yeah, that's rude.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Dee, where you calling from, Dee? I am from Maryland. Oh, my God. So what's your rating right now on Lyft? Actually, I'm a 4.8 right now. Oh, so you're good. Right, but I have recently, I like being five stars, but I recently got some low scores because I have been getting lost in like the D.C., Virginia area.
Starting point is 00:14:51 I'm from Maryland. I don't live in D.C. And don't get in my car with an attitude. I'm sorry. I'm a driver. All right. One last question. Do you have chargers for people in the car when they need a charger?
Starting point is 00:15:02 Yes, that I do. Okay. Oh, you the best. Water in the summertime. Come on, people. Thank you very much. What's wrong with your GPS, though? That's most Lyft and Uber.
Starting point is 00:15:11 It seems like they're all of them. Lyft is a great service, but sometimes with the new construction, it be getting people lost. They be taking people out in front of churches and they live behind the church. It's a lot. Yeah, sometimes when you put in
Starting point is 00:15:22 just the location that you're at, like say it's a restaurant. Say you're at Applebee's and you put in Applebee's in a name, it might bring you to a whole other place.

Starting point is 00:21:18 Did you like it? She was showing me some stuff. I ain't like it. I ain't going. You lying. Because if you didn't like it, immediately you would have said, no, I didn't like it. Did you like it? I did.
Starting point is 00:21:27 I was like, what you doing? She was like, I'm showing you something. I'm like, no, I'm good. Did you stop her? I bet you seen it, though. Yeah, I stopped her. She showed you something. I bet you seen it.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Are you going back? I still talk to her. Let me tell you something, my brother. Don't ever, ever stop a girl from eating your booty. Because she can never talk bad about you ever again because anything she say negative about you, you can say, yeah, but you ate my ass, though. He liked it. It's cool.
Starting point is 00:21:53 All right, Ryan. All right, y'all. All right, Ryan. You called the wrong show. Get it off your chest, all right? 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up at any time. Now, you got rumors on the way?

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Maya Angelou. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Well, I'm excited to see this and this is making its way to Broadway. Phenomenal Woman, An Evening with Maya Angelou. I'm here for that. Yes. So her son is saying that it's going to be a one-woman show about her life that's in the works right now, and it's going to draw from her many writings along with some private musings that have never before been made public. That's something I definitely want to see.
Starting point is 00:22:56 I think that would be dope. I'm here for that. There's a couple of Broadway plays I want to see right now. I want to see the other. Ain't Too Proud to Beg, The Temptations, Tina Turner's coming to Broadway as well, her story. Really? Yes, I'm excited for that.
Starting point is 00:23:05 They're in the process of casting right now. Listen, you know I love, I like taking my mom to Broadway shows. That's what I want to do. That's my bonding time. I want to take my mom to see Ain't Too Proud to Beg. Motown, that's her era, you know? All right, now let's talk about Camila Cabello. She's going to be starring in the retelling of Cinderella for Sony Pictures.
Starting point is 00:23:22 It's a music-oriented version of the traditional story, and she's going to be starring in it. So she was, if you know, part of Fifth Harmony, and then you know her from the song Havana as well with Young Thug. No.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Havana. Yes, you do. Yeah, you know her. I heard the name. That was a huge song. Big record. Yeah, so she's going to be starring as Cinderella.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Now, Kim Kardashian is saying that she wants to be a lawyer now. That's dope. That's good. They said she's been authentically interested in the law for a long time. Her dad was a lawyer. That is a fact. Rona Kardashian.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Never forget that. And she plans to go to law school. You know, law school is three years, so then she'll have to pass the bar after that. Now here's what her attorney says. She has always, even as a young girl, been interested in this area. During the whole Alice Marie Johnson period of time that we were working with the lawyers to get her out,
Starting point is 00:24:10 she was involved far more than you might imagine. What does she want to do with a law degree, Sean? I think she wants to continue doing what she's already doing, which is helping people get out of prison who are serving far too much time for their misdeeds. I think she is truly interested in being a justice warrior. I don't have a problem with that. Why would anyone have a problem with her trying to better herself?
Starting point is 00:24:34 But she's not going to law school, by the way. What do you mean? Yeah, she's not going to law school. She does plan to take the bar by 2022. And to prepare for that, she started an apprenticeship at a San Francisco based law firm. She got started last summer and she has support from Van Jones
Starting point is 00:24:49 and attorney Jessica Jackson. I don't know what that means but I do know in this groupie ass world she would have the jury and the judge glamored. She would have them wrapped around her fingers.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Her star power alone would get people off. Would you hire her? Depends what the case is. But not to mention it's in her blood though. Her dad was an attorney. Yeah, she's going to have to do the work. It's not easy to pass that ball so she's going to have to do. But not to mention, it's in her blood, though. Her dad wasn't an attorney. Yeah, she's going to have to do the work.
Starting point is 00:25:06 It's not easy to pass that bar, so she's going to have to do the work. I'm sure it's a price. Or you could always hire, just like everybody else did. Nah, I don't think so. Not with that one. No, you definitely can't with the bar. The bar is no joke. No joke.
Starting point is 00:25:15 You pay for the bar? What? What do you mean? Pay somebody to do it? No. To take the test. You know how they were paying, the parents were paying? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:21 No, that's very difficult. All right, now, Kim Kardashian also was recently in Vogue magazine too when she talks about how badly she wants to take the bar and become a lawyer as well. She also has said that she has re-accepted Kanye's, Kanye has re-accepted his bipolar diagnosis. She said to Vogue, I think we're in a pretty good place with it now. She said that Kanye is passionate about showing the world
Starting point is 00:25:43 people can live normal lives with mental illness. It's an emotional process for sure. Right now, everything is really calm, but we can definitely feel episodes coming and we know how to handle them. She said that Kanye won't medicate to treat his disorder because of how it inhibits his creativity. So they've learned to adapt. She said for him, being on medication is not really an option because it just changes who he is. Traveling a lot does set it off so he doesn't travel as much as he used to. But honestly, I never want to speak for him
Starting point is 00:26:07 because I'm not in his mind, but I think some of the hurtful things that I read online, what is she doing? She's not stopping him. Like, it's my fault if he does or says something they don't agree with. That's my husband. I share every opinion that I have
Starting point is 00:26:17 and let him know when I think something's wrong. Well, the first sign that you have a problem is denial. And, you know, Kanye accepted it at first and he started denying it heavily. So, you know, Kanye accepted it at first and he started denying it heavily. So, you know, he's re-accepting the fact that, yes, there's something that he needed to correct. And if he doesn't want to medicate, I mean, they have to seriously watch him just in
Starting point is 00:26:33 case, I'm sure. I mean, they got to be very, very careful with him, whether it's social media, whether it's just him walking around. They just got to be careful with him. All right. In the meantime, since we're talking about the Kardashians, Khloe Kardashian is going to be producing a show called Twisted. It's a new TV series that's going to be a six-part series exploring what happens when love and affection spiral into a twisted web of extreme obsession and jealousy.
Starting point is 00:26:56 Y'all going to stop back and like the Kardashians, not one of the greatest dynasties since the Bulls championship. That's going to be on the ID channel. They Patriots level with it, bro. This is bad boy in the 90s level dynasty,'s going to be on the ID channel. They Patriots level with it, bro. This is bad boy in the 90s level dynasty, the Kardashians are. And I mean,
Starting point is 00:27:08 you can sit around. Can't stop, won't stop. You can continue to, you know, talk bad about them, talk negative about them, hate on them, but it's going to get exhausting because they're not going
Starting point is 00:27:15 to do nothing but keep winning. They're already up a billion. You know what I mean? Yeah, they are up a billion. So you want to be mad? Yes, they are. All right, you're going to be mad or you're going to try
Starting point is 00:27:23 to figure something out for yourself? All right, and Justin Bieber is returning mad or you're going to try to figure something out for yourself? All right. And Justin Bieber is returning to music. Apparently, he has a collaboration that's going to drop next week. And you know who that's with? Who? Lil Dicky.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Okay. So they said he will be featured on the single to be Justin's first song since No Brainer, which was released last July. That's the song with Khaled, Quavo, and Chance. Hey, Justin can still sing, man. I'm going to be honest with you. Why would you think he can't sing? I didn't say. I don't knowavo and Chance. Hey, Justin can still sing, man. I'll be honest with you. Why would you think he can't sing? I didn't see. I don't know. I'm just saying. He can still sing. I heard
Starting point is 00:27:49 a joint. He can. Justin still got it. Yeah. He actually sounds better now that he's a little old and, you know, his voice is more mature. You heard some music? I have. How'd it sound? It was cool. I told you the boy can sing. I'm just asking. I mean, we know he can sing. Soul for real.
Starting point is 00:28:05 That'd be dope. They need real. That'd be dope. Stop it. They need that. That'd be a good way to bring soul for real really, really bad. Stop it. Stop it. Listen, all your uncles and aunties out there, I just want you to know that soul for real will be here next hour because this is Throwback Thursday.
Starting point is 00:28:17 It is. All right? Candy rain. Every little thing I do. All right? What else you got? What was the other joint they had? Nah, the other joint. Man, what's the other joint? What's else you got? What was the other joint they had? Nah, the other joint, man.
Starting point is 00:28:26 What's the other joint? What's the other joint? What's the other joint? I can have you. If you can have it. If you want it. Something like that. That was the dyslexic version,
Starting point is 00:28:34 but those are the words. You guys are flat. Yeah. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. All right, we got front page news next when we talk about you. Yes, let's talk about this measles outbreak
Starting point is 00:28:43 in Brooklyn. Wear condoms. All right, we'll talk about that when we come back. I heard it starts with a stomach virus. You know what? I was talking to this doctor yesterday, and he was like, can you please tell your co-host that you can't take wax out your air and put it into a female and find out if she has a disease or not.
Starting point is 00:28:58 As in co-hosts, they meant Charlamagne. Yeah, they meant Charlamagne. Tell your doctor if he's never done it, shut the hell up. All right? Until he does that experiment himself, then he can talk to me. Because there's some poor kid out there that's really going to believe him and try it. And give a girl an infection. Because she'll have an infection
Starting point is 00:29:12 after that. And he's not going to get chlamydia. Because when you take that earwax out your ear and you put it in her pom-pom, if she jumps, she got something. Bye. You don't know to leave it alone. All right. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Celebrate 25 years of moving the culture forward at the 2019 Essence Festival presented by Coca-Cola,

It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
Starting point is 00:29:52 All right. Dwayne Wade, it was his last game last night. He played against the Brooklyn Nets. And it was his last dance. He scored a triple-double. LeBron James was in attendance. Also Carmelo Anthony and our very own Chris Paul. And our very own Angela Yee. Oh, yes Paul. And our very own. Gabrielle Union.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Oh, yes. Angela Yee was there as well. She had a triple-double last night? Yes, she did. Dropping the clues, mom, for D-Wade. Now, unfortunately, he did lose. Won 13-94 to the Brooklyn Nets. But, yeah, it was so much energy in that building.
Starting point is 00:30:20 I've never seen. Honestly, you know I go to a lot of Nets games. That might have been one of the most exciting ones ever just because everybody was so excited for Dwayne Wade. Everybody had on D-Wade jerseys last night. FYI, you know you old when you can remember D-Wade coming into the league in your adult life and retiring in your adult life. Yeah, and congratulations. He went out when he wanted to go out because he's still balling.
Starting point is 00:30:38 But the other night he saw a 30, he did a triple-double, so he just decided he wanted to go. Well, congratulations to him on a great career. All right, and let's talk about Brooklyn some more. This is not good news. New York City has declared a public health emergency because of a Brooklyn measles outbreak. That's why you got to wear condoms, people.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Now, that measles outbreak is affecting the Orthodox Jewish community in Williamsburg. They said unvaccinated people living in select zip codes will have to have the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine to curtail the outbreak. Now, what happened was it was one student that actually traveled and brought measles back, which has gotten spread in school. The kid, I guess, went to Israel. He was unvaccinated, got the measles there, then went to school.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And now there's 285 New York City cases. And the age range is from one month to 66 years old. All that unprotected sex. Wear condoms in Brooklyn, please. This little kid was not having unprotected sex. Oh. Okay. And the other issue is this.
Starting point is 00:31:32 They said people are having measles parties. What they do is parents bring together. What you mean measles parties? So, you know, they don't. Who the hell is that? So. Sounds crazy. Certain religious beliefs, they don't want to get a vaccination.
Starting point is 00:31:43 So what they do is they make everybody get it. So then that builds up your immunity to something. They don't have to worry about it? Right. So it's kind of like when you get the flu shot, it's really giving you the flu. That's why sometimes people get sick from it. But they said do not do that. Does this work?
Starting point is 00:31:56 What, are you thinking about having a herpes party or something? What are you asking for? Does this work? I mean, listen, according to a doctor, they said avoid this practice. Measles parties are dangerous because the disease can be fatal. The vaccine is safe and it protects your child. It protects other people as well. So do not have these measles parties.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Highly contagious. Wear condoms. You can tell if you have measles if you have a rash of flat red spots. And the symptoms may include fever, cough, runny nose, and watery eyes. Isn't herpes a form of measles too,? No. Oh, well listen, you haven't given us no solutions on how to protect ourselves from measles. You have to get a vaccination. That's it? That's the only way? Yeah, I mean that's how you can make sure you don't get it. Mostly everybody gets vaccinations when they're kids. Measles vaccination. But some people just don't
Starting point is 00:32:39 do it. And so that's what's dangerous because it affects other people. If you end up getting it, going to school, you can spread it to other kids. I haven't even heard the term measles in so long. I thought measles was something you only get on sitcoms. Okay. But wear condoms, Brooklyn. Yeah, absolutely. Measles outbreak to some of us. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:55 And all unprotected sex point. Let's talk about San Francisco now. Dozens of community organizers and youth and city officials are on the steps of the city hall on Tuesday. They are rallying in support of a new measure. They want to shut down the county's juvenile are on the steps of the city hall on Tuesday. They are rallying in support of a new measure. They want to shut down the county's juvenile hall by the end of 2021. They want to close youth prisons and build leaders together. So they're holding up
Starting point is 00:33:13 signs saying books, not bars, free us kids and no youth jail. So that'll be a good measure. They want to close down these juvenile halls. Yeah, but where are you going to put these little badass criminals that's young? Well, they want to give them alternatives to incarceration. Oh, okay. So kind of like Kamala Harris' Back on Track program.
Starting point is 00:33:29 So instead of sending them to prison, they give them apprenticeships, internships, stuff like that. They want to do more rehab type of situations. Got you. Non-institutional centers. I'm with that. For those who need to be in a facility. I'm definitely with that. Yeah, because look, jail is supposed to be a place where you get a rehab that does not happen and to be able to reenter society.
Starting point is 00:33:47 And for kids in particular, I'm sure that a lot of times a lot of things that happen can be by peer pressure, by circumstances. It's never too late to make a change. I'm definitely with that, especially depending on the offense. And let's talk about this weather. There was a powerful bomb cyclone and they're saying right now just be careful because certain states had some heavy snow in parts of South Dakota and other states like Wyoming, Colorado, Minnesota, more than 4 million people are under blizzard warnings from Wednesday into today.
Starting point is 00:34:15 That includes those areas. So just be careful. Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota. Springtime, damn it. Bro. Yeah, some places are going to get more than 2 feet of snow by tomorrow. That's crazy. Y'all think it's a game, but Armageddon is upon us. They said in South Dakota, and Minnesota. Spring time, damn it, bro. Yeah, some places are going to get more than two feet of snow by tomorrow. That's crazy. Y'all think it's a game, but Armageddon is upon us. They said in South Dakota, they could get more than 30 inches.
Starting point is 00:34:31 Listen, Armageddon is upon us. The only thing I ask God is please, please, please don't end the world until after Avengers Endgame come out. After Avengers Endgame, do what you want with the planet, okay? But I just need to see what happens with Thanos. Well, that's selfish. Yeah, that's pretty selfish. No, there's plenty of people that don't want their world to end until after Endgame. You got it.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Selfish. This guy's crazy. All right, well, that is front page news. Now, when we come back, it's Throwback Thursday. Can you play the song? Because they might not know who this group is, just in case. Your uncles and aunties are very excited right now. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Now, when we come back, we're going to be talking to this group right here. Come on, hit that jam. You refused to play the remix, huh? You going to play the remix in your mini-mix? I ain't got the remix here. You got the remix in your Serato. I do. I got it.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Don't worry about it. It's Serato. This is Soul For Real. You know, Uptown Records is one of my top three favorite record labels of all time. Soul For Real was signed to Uptown Records. They had joints like Candy Rain. Every little thing I do. What's the other little half a bop they had?
Starting point is 00:35:24 If you want it. If you want it. If you want it. Hey. So they'll be joining us next. Of course, they were founded by Heavy D. They're from Long Island, New York. So we'll kick it with them next.
Starting point is 00:35:32 So don't move. It's Throwbacks Thursday. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:35:40 We got a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed. So for real. So for real. Yo, yo. What's happening, my brother? What's up, fellas? What's going on guest in the building. Yes, indeed. Soul For Real. Soul For Real. What's happening, my brother? What's up, fellas? What's going on, Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:35:51 Now, talk to us. What happened to Soul For Real? Where have y'all been? What's been going on? What happened to Soul For Real? I mean, honestly, I'm going to keep it 100. We've been casualties of the industry as far as a transitional time. You know what I mean? When we came out, it was 95. So you got to remember,
Starting point is 00:36:06 that was before the internet really hit. Before social media, all that stuff. Exactly. You understand? So, of course, it's not only what happened to Soul For Real, it's what happened to R&B groups. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:16 You understand? Because right now, the industry, if you really pay attention, there are no groups, female or male. So I think we just really just became a casualty of that era. Who founded y'all? Who signed y'all? Heavy D.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Yeah, Heavy D signed us, right. I thought Andre Harrell found y'all, though. No, no. Heavy brought us to Andre. You know, I just want to let y'all know, this is just awesome, you know what I mean? This opportunity to really kind of bridge the gap because a lot of people know the song, but they haven't seen us.
Starting point is 00:36:43 So they can't put a face with the songs right right like candy rain and every little thing i do is classic records that's right so where did heavy d where did heavy d find you on the street or nah so we're gonna let you know when we were on the streets like my brother was saying before peddling nickel and diamond crack you know i mean mind dance because we never made it to the big you know i mean like change the change was needed you know i mean my dance diamond crack yeah because we never made it to the big you know what i mean like change the change was needed you know and uh we had uh david turner shout out to dave he's still around right so when when when i decided i said you know i'm not doing the street thing no more i decided to go work at mcdonald's and dave was the manager at mcdonald's
Starting point is 00:37:21 so once you know i was at mcdonald's I was washing the dishes. You know what I mean? I'm singing Boyz II Men. You know, Dave came up like, yo, you sound amazing. I was like, I'm not even the lead singer. You should hear me and my brothers. At the time, you know, we had a corny-ass name in the group,
Starting point is 00:37:35 Da Fizz. What's it called? Da Fizz. What's that mean? It was terrible. It was the first two letters of our last name. And the physical was short. Short for physically related.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Right, you got you. So of course, after we met Hev, you know what I mean, Hev said nah, that name is done. But let me rewind a little bit because we were running around to the different labels and we'd be standing outside singing. So one day we were at Geffen Records and Heavy D's brother's girlfriend was there. While we were warming up in the lobby, she heard us, and she was like, yo, you guys will be dope for this Mount Vernon day. So it's a talent show that basically showcases local talent. So you already know I'm an elephant. So look, she was like, yo, her name was Robin.
Starting point is 00:38:24 She was like, yo, send the guys down. Now, mind you, she sent us right to Heavy D's house. You know what I'm saying? Because at this time, Floyd and Hev, they lived together. You know, Hev didn't move out yet or do anything like that. So, it was like we found ourselves at 80, you know, his address, 80 Bateman Place, his previous address. You know, God bless Hev, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:38:42 We're going to get into that. But we were in get into that but we were in his house and we had no idea we're looking around seeing plaques and pictures and stuff they told us sing we sang all our original songs so have just so happened to be home we go downstairs it's like this is have you actually see have so I was like don't be nervous get and do the same thing y'all did for my brother from dear it was like yo I'm gonna introduce you all to head to Andre Andre basically gave have the proposition like listen if I could match same thing y'all did for my brother from there it was like yo i'm gonna introduce y'all to andre
Starting point is 00:39:05 andre basically gave have the proposition like listen if i could match whatever deal you have for them you got to let them come with me that's how we ended up being the last group on um uptown mca but didn't heavy take over for andre at one point yeah that was after the first project though oh i remember when we started the for life project, which was our then titled album cover for the second album, everything kind of just was like the opposite of the first, you know. Hev and Andre kind of parted ways. The difference between that album and the first one was there was absolutely no promotion. Things were like, we were just always questioning things that we knew it took to get us where we were from heaven.
Starting point is 00:39:47 We never got answers, you know, from him personally. And like my brother said, may he rest in peace and stuff. But I think a lot of what happened with the whole situation with him might have stemmed from just things that was like maybe should have been done with us, that was promised to us that we looked to him for. Keep it in there, honey. I don't mean to
Starting point is 00:40:10 chime in, but I really hate that Hev passed without us bonding that relationship. Fixing it. So you guys are mad at Hev. It got mad at one point. Of course. I mean, Hev, he could have took better care of us because we were babies.
Starting point is 00:40:27 You felt like his passing was karma for what he did to y'all? That's what I was getting to, basically. In a nutshell. I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say it's ugly. Well, you know, I'm not saying it to get the effect of it being like, you know, like bitterness behind it. You know what I'm saying? I'm just saying it on something that is based on my history as far as like times that I've reached out to him, Floyd,
Starting point is 00:40:52 and, you know, there were plenty of opportunities that I felt that were given for us to, you know, just rekindle and take a pick up at a pace where he could have lived up to the things that we was expecting, but unfortunately it never got to happen. But we never really took it and held it as like something bitter. You know, I still always have the love that I always had for him. Like I never at any point look at him, and I feel like I'm speaking for my brothers too.
Starting point is 00:41:19 We always were looking for that moment to be like, yo, look, let's do this again, you know what I mean? Right, right. The opportunity never came. Being on both sides of the industry, you do realize, and it's effed up,
Starting point is 00:41:30 but it's a business. Yeah, absolutely. They look at things as, you know, today, So For Real's popping. Tomorrow is the next one. Somebody else.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Right, right. He's thinking about, you know, I gotta necessarily, I gave So For Real a hit. I put out an album. They're making money. Now their next record
Starting point is 00:41:44 ain't what it's supposed to be, maybe? Well, I got to go to the next one. I don't think it was nothing disrespectful. I think it was more like an assembly line. I beg to differ. Hold on. The reason why I beg to differ is this. We didn't know the industry.
Starting point is 00:41:54 We just knew that we could sing. But because Hev and everybody else, they know the industry, it was like we didn't get the proper publishing. They took your publishing. Yeah, exactly. They took your masters. That's right. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:42:05 So, at the end of the day, it's not business. If we sitting up here, we at the crib, we done had a bond. It's a camaraderie. We chilling at the crib. Did y'all have a manager?
Starting point is 00:42:15 How many people does that happen to? Everybody. Our manager was Floyd. His brother was our manager. That's the thing. It was so much f***ing going on.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Did y'all have a lawyer? It was a straight up conflict. Did y'all have a lawyer either? Have a lawyer was your lawyer. There brother was our manager. That's the thing. It was so much... What about the lawyer? It was a straight-up conflict. Y'all didn't have a lawyer either? Hev's lawyer was your lawyer. Yeah, he was. Straight-up conflict. You understand? His brother was our manager. His brother Floyd was our manager.
Starting point is 00:42:32 We shared the same lawyers. We always were hearing that these things were conflict, but, you know, like I said, we never... Y'all didn't know no better. Exactly. We didn't hold it to him. We always were looking for the moment that... So that's the reason why I said I begged to differ,
Starting point is 00:42:44 because, you know, we know we were blackballed after, you know, we bumped heads with Hef. Then it's like, yo, he's the big dog. All right, we got more with R&B group Soul For Real. It's Throwback Thursday. Matter of fact, let's get into a mini mix. Here's some of their music. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:42:58 Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Soul For Real is here. R&B group. It's Throwback Thursday. Now you know they were founded by Heavy D. They were sound to Uptown Records. Now Charlamagne?
Starting point is 00:43:14 Now let's talk about the identity fraud issue. Okay. What was that about? It says three of y'all are indicted for identity fraud? No, no, no. I think Brad's to blame for everything. I was gonna say, look, I'm gonna answer that and let everybody know that this is the actual first time that I'm speaking out about that. You understand? And it wasn't identity fraud.
Starting point is 00:43:33 I was involved with some cats that really I had no idea what they were doing. You know what I mean? I was involved in a low level involvement with it in my search of trying to, you know, stay relevant and keep change in my pocket. So they said identity fraud, but it wasn't identity fraud. It was mortgage fraud, and I definitely was the only one involved in it. I kept my mouth shut.
Starting point is 00:43:56 You know, I was implicated. You said I did it, I did it. Let me go do my time. Were you the only person implicated or were there other people? No, there were other people. I mean, but it was like... Only person in the group.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Right. I was just letting everybody know. I did five years. When half passed, did y'all go to the funeral? I was locked up. I tried. I tried my best. That was another thing that was.
Starting point is 00:44:15 I was locked up at my own funeral. It was. You said it hurt me. I'm not going to no more funerals. Yeah, I don't do funerals either. I always say that. I'm not going to mine if I can help it. But y'all just didn't want to go?
Starting point is 00:44:25 Nah, that's something I tried to do. Bri was locked up at the time. I think the invitation was not there. It wasn't for us. It was offensive to me for years. But we don't get any phone calls back. When did they stop returning y'all calls? At what point? I guess
Starting point is 00:44:41 the exact moment after the second album. Yeah, no, it was after the first album. Because, I mean, my memory is pretty on point when it comes to this. Because, yeah, most of the time during the Candy Rain album, and even the For Life album, we met Heaven.
Starting point is 00:44:57 We said, we're all lead singers, but have had a different view for us. You know what I'm saying? So I was always on the outside looking in. I was forced to pay close attention. So the second single, this is what really happened, was Every Little Thing.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Chalk did the lead on the second single. So Hev wanted to have Jace do the remix to Every Little Thing. And Chalk and Hev kind of went at odds with that. So Hef immediately was like, all right, f*** that.
Starting point is 00:45:27 We're about to just pull the plug on these a**holes. You understand? They hard to work with. So automatically, it was no more promotion. And stop to check. So Every Little Thing just instantly, you know,
Starting point is 00:45:37 it went off of the momentum of Candy Rain by itself. So it literally, because we were contractually obligated, is the only reason why the second album came out. So it was like because we were contractually obligated, is the only reason why the second album came out.
Starting point is 00:45:48 So it was like, all right, we're going to put you all out, but we're not going to promote you all. We're not going to do nothing.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Wow. Did you guys have a relationship with Diddy? A very short relationship with Diddy. I have a book. We're working on a movie and I don't want
Starting point is 00:46:01 to give everything, but yeah, we worked with Diddy. Like Diddy said to us before he had 112. he was telling us what he would do if he had us you understand and then 1996 we have 112. everybody was like oh we heard your new song with biggie and was like that's not us right no andre andre didn't want to say hey man why don't y'all come over here no because have had dibs on us even after his passing though
Starting point is 00:46:26 after his passing everything with beats from dealing with andre to anyone who was ever affiliated from our past was like pulling teeth trying to reach out to those it's called being blackballed man that's what it is i remember when we seen andre harrell in the club he literally ran from us like we attacked him or something something. We were just coming to say, hey, Dre, what's up, man? Yo, you know, four of y'all come up to him and I know,
Starting point is 00:46:49 I know he got your arm. I mean, he probably, what the **** was he thinking? I might think about you. We were just approaching the man and saying, this was like, this last year,
Starting point is 00:46:57 that's funny. Y'all look like y'all carry hammers now. I don't mind him taking off. He said, I don't mind him taking off. Now, Chase, you did want to go solo. You did end up going solo, though.
Starting point is 00:47:09 I mean, I have the, if you feel like me, joint, if you really know me, you know to go look for that. It's out there. You know what I mean? Just passing the time while I'm out living life. You know what I mean? Chuck, we had a little inside. Something was happening back in the days. He was like, I'm going solo
Starting point is 00:47:25 you know Chalk was going solo first right and I was like crickets crickets crickets so when he said
Starting point is 00:47:34 when he wanted to go solo how was the family when he wanted to go solo were y'all cool or was it beefing it had to be a moment where y'all ain't talking to each other
Starting point is 00:47:39 I think I think bro I was locked up or something so you was locked up too no I'm gonna tell you when Chalk tried to go solo. At the end of the day, I'm going to tell you on my standpoint,
Starting point is 00:47:48 which I tell them now, I always tell them, that's why ain't nothing going to happen with both of their s**t whenever they go solo. Because you wasn't meant to. The world's not feeling you on your solo s**t. The world's feeling soul for real. But I thought you said you wanted everybody to go solo. I disagree.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Chalk said I disagree. But I'm just saying. It's all about... What happened then, right? I think that's a weird analogy. It's like this. It's like... Just go check it out. I'm going to tap on it real quick.
Starting point is 00:48:13 What I should have done. I got a couple of tapes out there. How about that? Y'all just didn't know about it. I get it. There was no budget there for them to know about it. The first talks of ever going solo happened with me because of certain activities and where we were personally
Starting point is 00:48:31 when it came to being dropped from the label. It seemed like our attention span was going everywhere, and I decided to myself, you know what? If everybody's not going to stay focused on doing music and stuff, I'm just going to keep it up. You're Bobby Brown. you pulled the bobby brown you can call it that for our version i get it because life moves on right yeah like his brother in jail and y'all just sitting around like no the jail wasn't yet for this part when i when i decided to go solo this was earlier like of us being released and and actually off of Universal
Starting point is 00:49:05 with the situation after the second album didn't do anything. And that was started the first wave of anyone starting to say that they were going solo. I mean, so you guys are an R&B group. So can we hear you sing something before you get up out of here? Don't do it if y'all don't think y'all ready.
Starting point is 00:49:21 No, no, no. This is never, this is never. Let the J's do it. J's like, please. J's like, why? This is why I This is never. This is never. This is never. This is never.

Starting point is 00:49:45 The young kids in the old age know. This is what I was letting them know. Like, when people ask us to sing, don't sing something new that nobody knows. Do Candy Rain! That's right. That's what I'm trying to let everybody know. Like, you can't sing something that you do. My love, do you ever dream of candy-coated raindrops?
Starting point is 00:50:10 You're the same, my candy rain. And it's ****, right? I knew where y'all was going to jump in. Those from the 90s can always still sing, bro. I don't know what nobody sing.

Starting point is 00:57:16 Well, Kodak Black has some words for the game. Now, if you remember, the game was coming hard at Kodak. Here's what the game said initially. This shit go for Kodak Black and any other shit disrespecting my nip name. Keep my nip name out your mouth, nip. Keep his girl's name out your mouth, nip. The fuck wrong with you new nips? I understand why the game was going so hard, though,
Starting point is 00:57:36 because, you know, Nipsey's not here to defend himself, so they feel like, you know, they got to defend his woman the way... His honor. His honor, yeah. Well, Kodak Black is still going on livestream and responding to what everybody has to say. And so when he was asked about what he had to say about the game's comments,
Starting point is 00:57:51 here's what he said. Hey, the loving, the honey guy won't talk. And I'm going to find out tomorrow. And if he meet, get to grab that boy off the pole like this. You know, I changed a lot of times. What? What did he say? What did he say? What'd he say?
Starting point is 00:58:05 He said, 50, grab that guy off the pole like I'm going to change your whole life. Boy, Kodak, you better do some push-ups. You sure he said that? Say that play to get out of here. I don't know what he said. Wow. It's crazy how when somebody tells you... You can't understand what he says? No.
Starting point is 00:58:28 When somebody tells you exactly what they said, you can hear it perfectly. You know what I'm saying? I understood that. I'm going to tell you why this is a dangerous game for Kodak Black, though. Nipsey Hussle is deceased. So emotions are running very, very high for the people who love Nipsey. And, you know, the thing about pain is you just want to, you know, you redistribute that pain to other people.
Starting point is 00:58:48 So Kodak better do his push-ups. Because if he's running the game in the next two weeks. T.I. also had something to say about why he feels like he has to go really hard for Nipsey. I see myself in this. And I only want to handle him the way I feel that he would handle me. If a mother would speak out and say something out of line about my old lady after my untimely demands, he ain't just going to speak up, he's going to pull up. And I owe him that same respect.
Starting point is 00:59:16 I get it. So he owes that to Nipsey. Even though I still feel like, you know, you can pull somebody's card by just having a conversation with them. You know what I'm saying? Whether you do pull up and see them face to face or you call them on the phone. Because I feel like all of this social media and all of this media attention that is getting is turning it into high school. Now everybody feel like they got to prove something. And it's an ego thing.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Exactly. All these fragile egos. Now I'm like, okay, I'm not going to act like I'm a punk. Absolutely. All right. Now Rihanna is getting ready to launch Fenty Skin Care. You know, Fenty Beauty is already popping out here in these streets. So now she's doing Fenty Skin.
Starting point is 00:59:49 I love Fenty. She's working on that new suite. Yeah, it looks good on you. What are we getting us some music? What kind of, what's your favorite product from Fenty Beauty? The beige. I think you have on the lip gloss. The beige gloss.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I don't know. I want some music. I want some music, though. I want some music. Yeah, and she knows that. A fan, you know, a lot of her fans always ask, when is the music coming? And it is coming. She's been working.
Starting point is 01:00:09 But let her prosper and thrive with what she enjoys doing as well. Okay. Skincare products is coming up next. You ain't asking me what I like from Fenty, but no worries. We all know what you use, but go ahead. What, that soft mate long wear foundation? Matte. Matte, whatever.
Starting point is 01:00:23 It's matte. I say matte. It's matte? Yes. It's the matte? What? I. Matte, whatever. It's a mate. I say mate. It's matte? Yes. The mate? I don't wear it. It's not a coffee. The mate.
Starting point is 01:00:33 I like mate. I think mate sounds good. Mate. It definitely sounds very... Women wear mate. Men wear mate. Oh, man. You go to Sephora and ask for that mate.
Starting point is 01:00:43 Exactly. I would never put mate on my face. I want my car mate black. You should put mate on your face. I would never put Matt on my face. I want my car in mate black. You should put Matt on your face. I would never put Matt on my face. I'm a man. This guy is crazy. I put mate on my face.
Starting point is 01:00:52 You're not going to ask me what I like? I like that mate. That's right. Would you put Matt on your face, Envy? Huh? If I'm going to use it, I'm going to use it right. Ooh. All right.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Well, let me move on. Hey, Matt, call me. Now, let's talk about Drake. Drake is already working on his next album. He told the crowd in London that he has a new LP that he's working on. So here's Drake. I kind of actually started last night, to be honest with you. But I think what I'm going to do after this is I'm going to go home
Starting point is 01:01:23 and I'm going to make a new album so I can come back to London next year and we can do this again. Now, Drake was also feeling very nostalgic. If you saw, he was posting all of his old DMs from Twitter. I seen it. Yes, he put up a DM from Trey Songz. Hit me on the berry. That's when Blackberries
Starting point is 01:01:40 was it. And Trey Songz Blackberry. Then he put up a tweet from a DM from Kendrick Lamar. What's good, fam? See, people say fam all the time. What's good, fam? First of all, that was 2011. Is that the one?
Starting point is 01:01:52 He had his number on one of them, right? And Kendrick said, yo, my man, what's the word? And he said, I'm working on detox and finishing my project, Section 80. When you back in Cali, Drake responded, I know that ish will be incredible. We got to do something for real. I'll be back for BET Awards this month. It's good to see how far people came, right? Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 01:02:09 Actually, yeah, he put his number with Kevin Durant. He posted these DMs with Kevin Durant. What's up, fam? Where can I get some of that OVO exo gear that ish is mean? I'm ready to see Drake do something other than music, though. Like, he's conquered that. Like, I want to see him get into acting. Well, he's been in acting.
Starting point is 01:02:22 He was in acting first. No, man. I'm talking about now. You know what I mean. He wants to go back to acting. Yeah, I want to see him get into acting. Well, he's been in acting. He was in acting first. No, man. I'm talking about now. You know what I mean. He wants him to go back to acting. Yeah, I heard he's, you know, he's executive producer on that show Top Boy. You ever watch Top Boy? Mm-mm.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Top Boy was on Netflix. It's a show out of London. And I heard he's executive producing that and bringing that back. And I heard- Isn't that what people call you? I heard he's playing the villain on Top Boy. That's what I heard. I want to hear Drake some more music from Drake.
Starting point is 01:02:44 I don't. I want to see him do something else. We know he can do music. He's conquered I heard. I want to hear Drake some more music from Drake. I don't. I want to see him do something else. We know he can do music. He's conquered that already. And if he's playing a bad guy on Top Boy, that'd be dope.
Starting point is 01:02:52 All right. Now the new Lion King trailer, did you guys see it? Mm-mm. You shouldn't be able to see it. Why?

Dwight, what happened? Down here today for Thursday, April 11th, goes to a mother-daughter duo named Tara Avene, 46, and Briar Avene, 24. Mother-daughter duo. I love to see mothers and daughters bonding and doing things together. Mothers and daughters together are a force to be reckoned with. I think it's a beautiful thing when mothers and daughters
Starting point is 01:09:06 share the same hobbies and have the same interests. My daughter loves cheerleading and my wife was a cheerleader. My wife ran track. Now my daughter runs track. My wife even coaches my daughter's track team. I love it. It's beautiful. It's a beautiful thing to see. This is the way life is supposed to be. And well, Tara and Briar
Starting point is 01:09:21 share an interest. In fact, they have found a way to make some money together. Always a beautiful thing when you can make money with your family, right? Yeah, fam. Especially when it's a mother-daughter duo. They seem very close because you have to be close to be able to trust each other with the secret this mother duo was carrying. Would you like to know what Tara and Briar Avine were doing to have such a bond? What?
Starting point is 01:09:41 Or what they did to have such a bond? What? Let's go to ABC 7 for the report, please. 24-year-old woman is behind bars accused of killing her grandmother and police say her own mother also helped in the murder. Briar Avon and her mother Tara are charged with the murder of Sandra Avon. Officers were looking for 77-year-old during a welfare check and they were told she was out of town the daughter and granddaughter stories just didn't match up and then later they confessed to killing the elderly woman in 2017 police say the two women had been cashing the grandmother's monthly checks for more than a year taryn briar
Starting point is 01:10:17 are in jail right now for murder they killed granny two years ago continued to cash numerous monthly payment checks this is why this is terrible. It's Granny. Grandmama. Okay? She don't even need much. Whatever checks she was getting, she would have given to y'all. Oh, she wanted some hot fries from Wendy's, and she wants to watch her stories.
Starting point is 01:10:36 That's it. She in her last days already. Why'd you feel like you had to kill her? Goodness. Not to mention the mother-daughter bond that Tara and Briar share. Tara, why didn't you share that with your own mother? You do realize your daughter Briar is learning
Starting point is 01:10:49 everything from you, so the way she has seen you treat your own mother, killing her, is the exact same way she will one day treat you. The apple don't fall too far from the tree, so if your daughter kills you in prison, Tara, because that's where y'all will be spending the rest of your life, just remember, like mother, like daughter.

Starting point is 01:12:04 Guess what race it is? I think I would have to agree with Yee because, you know, like he said, we're not going to kill grandma. Yeah. We just lock her in the room and just steal her checks. Lock her in the room? I didn't say I'd lock her in the room. Oh, we'll just steal her checks. Now, you're Dominican, so that's what Dominican is.

But yes, they were Caucasian. All right. Don't thank you for that dog here today. Ooh, they had a hard life. All right, up next, Ask Yee. Waste of good white skin.
Starting point is 01:13:31 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call Yee right now. She'll help you with all your problems. Again, 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. E-J-M-V, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:13:47 It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Anonymous. Hey, Anonymous. Where you calling from? Anonymous. Okay, Anonymous from Anonymous. Okay, well, Texas.
Starting point is 01:13:56 I'm calling from Texas. All right, Texas. We'll just say Houston. We'll say Houston. Now, what's your question for Yee? So, okay, I got you guys on speaker because I'm here with my dumb sister, but she can still hear you.
Starting point is 01:14:07 She won't get on the phone, but a few years ago, probably about six years ago, her boyfriend gave her HIV. And, yeah, so they ended up breaking up. He actually died from it, but now she's in a new relationship.
Starting point is 01:14:23 And she did tell the guy ahead of time. She did let him know, but now she's in a new relationship. She did tell the guy ahead of time she did let him know, but now, every time they get into it, he always cheats and he uses it as an excuse of, hey, I gave you my life, so I'm going to do what I want to do, you know, type of thing. Well, is he HIV positive as well or no? Because he's been protecting...
Starting point is 01:14:40 No, not that I know of or not yet anyway because they have a child, so eventually maybe you know, they have a child. So eventually maybe. Oh, they have a child together? Well, she's pregnant, yeah. Okay. So go ahead.
Starting point is 01:14:52 I'm sorry, the question? So my question is, I guess I just want you to tell her like what it is that she can do because she's always coming to me and I really don't know what else to tell her other than leave because she told him Tuesday's time was HIV positive in the beginning. Well, why does she feel like she needs to stay with somebody that's constantly cheating on her? I don't know and I wish she would get on the phone instead of being here looking crazy, but I don't know.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Because I'll say this, aside from the fact that she's HIV positive, which she was honest about and which he was with her despite the fact of that, he's still cheating on her. Regardless of all of that, even if there was nothing else involved, he's a cheater. Yeah, but he's using it as an excuse.
Starting point is 01:15:33 He gave her basically his life is what he always did. Which is awful because now he's trying to make her feel guilty about something that he's doing wrong. She's done nothing wrong. I agree. So now you're feeling guilty, and you feel like, oh, he sacrificed so much for me, so I just have to keep on taking him back.
Starting point is 01:15:50 No, you don't. And he does not have to cheat on you. He had an option. He could have stayed with you, or he could have chosen not to date you and be with you. But he chose to stay with you, and as part of that, you know, you can't be lying and cheating. Period.
Starting point is 01:16:03 Word. Right, I definitely agree. F that. I don't care what she has. She should leave. Yes, she should leave. He shouldn't be cheating on her and using that as an excuse. I mean, listen, it seems like he's mentally trying to make her feel low all the time. F him.
Starting point is 01:16:15 And that's a lot of mind games that he's playing with her. And then he's also endangering her by cheating, endangering her own health and her own well-being and their relationship. And it feels like he's just emotionally taking advantage of her. That's emotional abuse. I agree. He could possibly be spreading it to so many other people. Absolutely. Right.
Starting point is 01:16:34 Okay. Mom, I know you're listening, man. F him. Don't let him try to treat you away because you have a disease. No, no, not at all. He shouldn't be around treating you like a dog, doing you dirty, cheating on you. It's not the way you can find a better man out there. He doesn't respect you.
Starting point is 01:16:49 Angela, can you be quiet for a second? I don't feel like I'm hearing the full story here, but continue on. Y'all make it very light of a very serious situation. I'm not making it light of a situation. He's cheating on her all the time. He's throwing it back in her face that she's HIV positive and saying that's the reason why he feels like he can cheat because he gave her his life. I don't feel like this is the whole story.
Starting point is 01:17:06 What else could there be? I don't know, but just don't sound right. I get it. What more is it? I can explain more. I wish she'll get on the phone, but she obviously Don't stay in an abusive relationship with a cheater, period. I agree. Alright, I really thank you guys and I hope y'all have
Starting point is 01:17:22 a good day. And hopefully she'll just take care of you. We value you and we need you to value yourself and we love you. And why was he just fine with her having HIV? Why did he just say, okay, cool? I don't know if he said, okay, cool, let's go have sex. But I think it was they just
Starting point is 01:17:38 accepted her as she was. There's a lot of people living in relationships with people who are HIV positive. Once you know that you can manage it, you know, there's PrEP, there's all kinds of things that you can take to make sure that you don't get it, that you can be safe. So it's not the stigma attached to HIV that you can't be with somebody. Yeah, but the fact that he's throwing it back up in her face lets me know that, like, I feel like it's just more to the store. Like, the fact that he's just throwing it up in her face now all of a sudden. I guess he's doing it like, I'm cheating on you, you ain't going nowhere.
Starting point is 01:18:03 He's a cheater, and he's manipulative. I don't know. I just feel like it's more her face now. I guess he's doing it like I'm cheating on you. You ain't going nowhere. He's a cheater and he's manipulative. That's how he feels. I don't know. I just feel like there's more to this story. And we're hearing third hand information from the friend. Because she won't get
Starting point is 01:18:11 her sister. And she's right there with her. There's still third hand information. She's there with her. I mean, I wish she can explain it better because it's her story.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Like, I just know what I was told and what she did. Well, thank God you care about your sister and love her and she need to love herself just as much as you love her. I do.
Starting point is 01:18:28 All right, I really appreciate it, Angela. Y'all have a great day. You have a great day, too. Thank you. Goodness gracious. All right, Ask Yee, 805-85-1051. If you need relationship advice, hit Yee now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:18:39 Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Ashley, good morning. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ and the Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Ashley, good morning. Good morning. How are you doing this morning?
Starting point is 01:18:51 I'm good. So, hi, Angela. Hi, Charlotte. Hey, Ashley. So, my question is, I got married last year, and my maid of honor decided that she wanted to get married at the same exact venue. Okay.
Starting point is 01:19:06 And I just feel like that is kind of weird, kind of shady. And, you know, I don't want to support her. I want to be there. But at the same time, like, out of all the venues you picked, you want to pick the same exact location? That's weird to me. Well, maybe she's just too lazy to go look at a bunch of different venues. And that means that she really liked your wedding. Yeah, she just liked your wedding. I don't know. I just feel like that's shady
Starting point is 01:19:27 and then she wants to send me pictures. The dresses are the same. The color themes are the same and I'm supposed to be the maid of honor at her wedding. That's weird. Wait, hold on. Let me ask you this, Ashley. I'm going to assume is this your best friend because she was your maid of honor? Yeah, she, yeah, yeah. So, why are you upset
Starting point is 01:19:43 at her? First of all, if you have an issue with it, why don't you be like, well, it does feel a little weird to me, but maybe she's just doing what you did because she loves how you did it. I guess. I mean, I thought about that, but, I mean, I guess I could look at it from that point of view. Right, because, look, at the end of the day,
Starting point is 01:19:59 you did it first. Right. And you inspired her. And, you know, they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Okay. But I do feel like it's worth, it's also worth a conversation because a lot of it is how we look at things. You could look at it like, why is she doing the same thing I did?
Starting point is 01:20:13 Or you could look at it like, yo, my best friend was so inspired by what I did that she's following suit in how I made things happen. And that means I did a great job. It's really how you look at things. All right. Okay, I'll take that point of view. Thank you guys. Alright, Ashley. Don't go in there with an attitude of being a maid of honor
Starting point is 01:20:29 either. Yeah, let her live. She loves you. I try not. She loves your wedding. I try not to. She want to redo it. So, she loves it. Yeah, that means everything was flawless that you did. There you go. Alright, cool. She ain't buying it. She's definitely not buying it. I know. She's like, that bitch. I know. She like, that bitch.
Starting point is 01:20:45 Ask Yee. 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice or any type of advice. Want to go to another line? Line five. Another Ashley. Ashley, good morning. Hi. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:20:56 Oh, my gosh. I can't believe I'm on the radio. What's your question for Yee? I've been talking to this guy for about eight months now. And we just became sexually active for the very first time. And his penis was extremely small. And it made me very uncomfortable. But other than that, he's really nice.
Starting point is 01:21:20 And I don't want that to hinder us. But I don't know. Because he made sure you got to know him first before you guys got sexually active. Who got little meat? Um, it, it, I don't,
Starting point is 01:21:31 it, um, I don't want, I don't know. It was just, like, other than that, he's like great.
Starting point is 01:21:36 Like, like, he's nice to talk to. He listens. Maybe you should, maybe you should ask Charlamagne. Envy, this is Ask Ye.
Starting point is 01:21:41 No one wants to know what you think. Charlamagne has little meat. Ask Charlamagne. You never had to sleep with a guy with a small penis. So relax. My penis is seven inches, three-fourths, eight when it's warm out. The number changes all the time.
Starting point is 01:21:52 But Ashley, okay, a couple of things here. When you guys have sex, is it enjoyable or is it terrible? I couldn't feel anything. Wow. What about foreplay? Was he good at foreplay? Awesome at that, yes. Because most guys with little penises are good at foreplay. Who he good at foreplay? Awesome at that, yes. Because most guys with little penises are good at foreplay.
Starting point is 01:22:08 We were just having this conversation. Yeah, because you have to be. Okay, so you were able to orgasm? Yes. But you did feel like something was missing? Yes. Do you feel like in your heart that you could be with somebody that is great in every other way and can make you orgasm,
Starting point is 01:22:24 but penetration isn't so great? Um, I want to try, like, cause I don't want to, like, miss out on somebody that I think is really good, but I've never been in a, you know, I'm pretty sure bigger
Starting point is 01:22:39 penises is bigger problems. I don't know. I don't know. More penis, more problems. Other than that, like, I don't know. I don't know. More penis, more problems. Other than that, like, I don't want to make him so cautious. How about this? Do you do anal? Oh, God, no. He can't fit in that way if it's...
Starting point is 01:22:54 Never mind, go ahead. That's the perfect anal thing, that small penis. Are you the anal expert, Envy? Nope. Ashley, I'll say this. This is something that you don't really know what you're going to do.
Starting point is 01:23:04 I think just take your time. Continue to date him if you feel like it's is something that you don't really know what you're going to do. I think just take your time. Continue to date him. If you feel like it's not anything that you can handle and you feel like, okay, I'm not into this, then you are going to have to break up. But in the meantime, if you want to give it a shot, give it a shot. Okay. It's not a life or death decision right now,
Starting point is 01:23:18 but it's something that you'll decide. Maybe you'll fall deeply in love with him and you'll be fine with it. Or maybe you'll say, you know what? I'm not really, I can't live my life with this small penis. You're right. Thank you. And guess what? It makes it so much easier when it's time for oral sex.
Starting point is 01:23:33 It's like nothing. Absolutely. Right. Your jaw will never hurt. Yes. All right. Thank you so much. Good luck, mama.
Starting point is 01:23:42 You foul. I always try to look at the positive side. So my brother, what do you do? I know because you got a small penis. When you have sex with your wife, like does she say to you? This is too personal. Oh, okay. I don't have a small penis.
Starting point is 01:23:52 My penis is seven inches, three-fourths, eight when it's warm out. Whenever it's over 80 degrees, I'm eight inches. And I got like two and a half inches of girth. Okay, so when you get a small penis, what do you tell her? It's a lot of things about me, but having a small penis is not one of them. I've never had that problem. All right. Ever.
Starting point is 01:24:06 I'm glad you guys are more comfortable with each other now. You can pursue something further. Shut up, Yee. Sound like you want my measurements, right, Yee? I don't know what's going on. It's like he's testing the waters. I'll be thinking that, too, Yee. Envy's been doing a lot of flirting with me this year, bro.

Starting point is 01:25:56 I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warheads.

Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee.
Starting point is 01:28:45 It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Wiz Khalifa announced his Wiz Khalifa Behind the Cam. It's a docuseries with Apple Music, and you'll get to see his life like you've never seen it before. They put out a trailer on Variety, and here's a piece of that. I had him play at a show at University of Pittsburgh when he was like 16, and the only person that showed up to see him was his mom Peachy. He's definitely performed 50 60 minute sets to 10, 2, 5, 6 people.
Starting point is 01:29:12 The rest of us I feel like we were nervous. I always just believed in what he kind of like told us he wanted to do or what was going to happen and saying yo this is going to work. Do it. You just do it. It's going to work. So he was just born ready to just do this. Wow. Imagine that he had a show and the only person that showed up was his mom. That's crazy. That's usually how it is in the beginning. It is.
Starting point is 01:29:34 And I've been to shows like that for some artists where you go there and there's only 20, 30 people there for their first shows. But that's a great time to practice and get better, just to be on stage and perform. And I think, you know, it's always respectful when artists show up and maybe it wasn't promoted properly or whatever it is, but still put your all into it and still do that show for the people that did show up.
Starting point is 01:29:52 I've been to a lot of those shows because I've been doing radio for, this will be my 21st year in radio. So, you know, back in the day when artists used to be on promo, you remember when the promo show on the label would just make them come to the markets for free? I'd have been to empty TI shows.
Starting point is 01:30:05 I'd have been to empty Jeezy shows. I've been to plenty of empty shows. Plenty of empty shows. As a matter of fact, my best friend, her name is Santi Gold. She's an artist. I went to her first show ever in Philly and it was just me, her sister. No, I'm not even lying. It happens, but guess what? That very next year
Starting point is 01:30:21 they can be the biggest thing on the planet. I remember going to a Jeezy show one year at the main event in Columbia, South Carolina. It was Jeezy and Big Country King. Wasn't like maybe 50 people there, but then that next year, Trap or Die? Ooh, or maybe a few months later. I don't even remember, but it wasn't too far. For all the artists out there, those small shows where
Starting point is 01:30:37 no one really shows up, that's a great time for you to really practice and hone yourself. Perfect your craft, absolutely. Have somebody film it for you so you can see what you look like, see what you need to improve on. The National Enquirer is up for sale. So if anybody wants to purchase that, the Enquirer, the Globe, and the National Examiner, if anybody is...
Starting point is 01:30:53 If I was Jeff Bezos, I'd buy it just to shut it down. Don't they be in Sioux? Yeah, they be in Sioux like crazy too. They're trying to play with me. Well, they said that deal that they originally had might be in jeopardy because prosecutors are looking into everything that happened with Jeff Bezos. Buy it, Jeff Bezos. Jeff Bezos. Buy it just to close it down. All right. Now, Oprah, she was on with your boy Trevor Noah, and she talked about the Leaving Neverland documentary. You know, a lot of people were saying, oh, she's pulled down the videos.
Starting point is 01:31:18 There was a rumor going on that HBO pulled it off, but they actually responded to that and said, that's not true. It's still available. So here's what Oprah had to say about why she stands by the interviews that she did after leaving Neverland. Did you ever waver in your beliefs when the documentary director came out and said there was a timeline issue? I've had girls at my school who were sexually assaulted and abused, and I have never won a case. When you put a girl on the witness stand and she can't remember was it Thursday or Wednesday, it's automatically discredited. I still don't believe those two dudes that accused Michael Jackson, but that's just me.
Starting point is 01:31:54 I'm in the minority, I guess. Did HBO pull it off? No. They didn't? I just told you. They said no, they did not. They made their own statement saying that's not true. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:02 And it's still available on HBO Now, HBO Go, and all of that. Okay. All right, now Oprah also has teamed up with Prince Harry, and they're executive producing a new series that will focus on mental health that's going to debut next year on Apple TV. Here's what Oprah said about that. We're doing a multi-part docu-series on mental health, all of it, and the spectrum. And what's Harry's involvement going to be?
Starting point is 01:32:24 And Harry is co-creating this with me, and he is executive producing this with me. Our hope is that it will have an impact on reducing the stigma and allowing people to know that they're not alone. They ain't call out Guy Charlemagne? She don't got to call me, but I'm all for anyone who helps to elevate the conversation
Starting point is 01:32:43 about mental health in our communities. That's a cause that's near and dear to my heart. Prince Harry back in 2017 said that he'd been in counseling in his late 20s to deal with the emotions surrounding the death of his mother, Princess Diana. So he's been open about talking about that as well. Yeah, I'm glad Prince Harry is doing the work and I'm glad Oprah is doing that. But I do wish she would have partnered with an American person of color on that as well. Because we really need to see more people of color being advocates for mental health because of all the trauma and pain that we've been
Starting point is 01:33:08 through in this country. She should have gotten with Raji P. Henson as well with that. Well, Oprah said that she's had her own experiences with anxiety and depression. She wrote about it in O Magazine. She said she had come face to face with mental illness as several people close to me were hospitalized with severe suicidal depression and manic
Starting point is 01:33:23 and schizophrenic thoughts. Listen, I'm all for it. You know, especially in the black community, all the hurt we've experienced, we need to encourage healing. And we are more prone to heal when we see people that look like us being advocates for mental health. So Prince Harry is cool, but that's like mental health for the elitists. The rest of us would be out here trying to help the hood heal mentally.
Starting point is 01:33:40 All right. Now let's talk about Patti LaBelle. She is going to be doing a line of frozen Chinese food. Dropping a Clues Bonds for Patti LaBelle just for her. Frozen Chinese food? Yes, and she's actually teamed up with our guy Stratus from Brooklyn Chop House. He's going to be partnering with her to do those frozen Chinese food. It's going to be sold in supermarkets.
Starting point is 01:33:57 So you know how you get frozen food meals? So you could get chicken satay at the supermarket? I don't know what it's going to be exactly. It's just a Chinese food line. Patti LaBelle ain't visited us in a while. When did Patti visit? She's in New York. She was just at Brooklyn Chop House.
Starting point is 01:34:09 Patti, Miss LaBelle, what's up, man? Come visit your folks. Yes. I love you. Congratulations to her. Better stop right there. And shout out to Stratus. I know he's excited.
Starting point is 01:34:18 And shout out to Don Poo as well. Shout out to Stratus and Don Poo. If you ever get a chance, if you ever in New York, check out their restaurant, Brooklyn Chop House. Amazing. Dropping a clue about Patti LaBelle. I go there too much. I remember when Patty LaBelle's son checked me when I used to do radio in Philly.
Starting point is 01:34:29 That's right. That's what I was talking about. He was about fine. His mama was. That's right. He should have. And he called up there mad. Nothing ain't my fault.
Starting point is 01:34:35 Your mama fine. I was a different person back then. That's disrespectful. You can't say that. Did you apologize? Apologize for saying somebody fine? How do you apologize for that? If he's offended, that's her son.
Starting point is 01:34:44 Sorry for saying your mama fine. I'm sure you didn't just say she was fine. I'm pretty, I don't know. I'm sure it was probably suck something out of something. I'm sure it was me. I would never talk about
Starting point is 01:34:51 Miss LaBelle like that. All right, now. Maybe I would, I don't know. See? Oh, yeah, I did used to have that top five. Absolutely. Yeah, top five women
Starting point is 01:34:59 I wanted to suck a fart out there, but... Okay, so you can see why her son would be offended. I was an animal, wasn't I? Yes, you were. So you don't think that deserves an apology to her son? No, I can understand why he was offended.
Starting point is 01:35:08 In hindsight, yeah. It's the same guy as... No, man. He moved on. I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. Thank you, fam. He evolved. All right.
Starting point is 01:35:16 Here come these white people. Put the camera on them, Steve, please. Please, put the camera on all those white people. If you're watching on Revolt, this is what they do. They bring like 20, 30 white people in here with one black person, and they just stare at us like we in a fishbowl. Oh, they can hear me? Yes, they can hear you.
Starting point is 01:35:29 Oh, hey, white people. What's happening? My goodness. This is embarrassing. All right. This is stupid. Awesome. Now your whole energy changed.
Starting point is 01:35:39 Your whole energy changed. But no, put the camera back on them, Steve. Hey. That's what they do. They do this. This is the fishbowl. They do this at least two or three times a week. on them, Steve. Hey. That's what they do. That's the fishbowl. They do this at least two or three times a week. He said, hey.
Starting point is 01:35:50 They go to that morning show. That's the black morning show that they be talking about. That's the one you see a lot. What place is that? The Breakfast Club. Goodness gracious. All right. Revolt, we'll see you tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:36:01 Everybody else, the People's Choice mixes up next. Of course, let's start off with some Nipsey this morning. Let's start the mix off with Nipsey. This sucks, man. Rest in peace, Nipsey. Rest in peace, Nipsey this morning. Let's start the mix off with Nipsey. It sucks, man. Rest in peace, Nipsey. Rest in peace, Nipsey. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Starting point is 01:36:36 We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building. Yes, and we got, this one's going to be a quick one because they got a flight to catch. We got a flight to catch. We got Chi Ali in the building. Welcome, Chi Ali. Peace, King. Thank you for having me. And also my son. My son. What's going on be a quick one because they got a flight to catch. They got a flight to catch. We got Chi Ali in the building. Welcome, Chi Ali. Peace, King. Thank you for having me.
Starting point is 01:36:45 And also my son. My son. What's going on, Kings and Queens? Chi Ali got a book out called Another Kind of Freedom. Yes. Check it out. ChiAliBX.com. Show me some love.
Starting point is 01:36:55 And unfortunately, y'all are headed to L.A. Right. To go to the funeral of our brother, Nipsey Hussle. Yes, sir. But that has inspired something you're doing this weekend, Mike. It's the King's Stop Killing Kings March. Yeah, the King's Stop Killing Kings March we're doing on Sunday the 14th at 12pm
Starting point is 01:37:12 in the Bronx on Grand Concourse and Fordham Road. You know, it's pretty much inspired by that, man. It's just, you know, we losing too many good people just to gun violence and just lack of love for each other. You know what I'm saying? And we killing each other. Like, we always marching
Starting point is 01:37:27 when the police kill us. I get a lot of that in my DMs. Yeah, why you don't march when we killing each other? And this one really hit home for the world. And I was like, this is, I think this is the time where we can galvanize that energy and show each other why it's important for us to be unified and not, and
Starting point is 01:37:44 stop killing each other, man, because we can't keep condemning other people who kill us when we're doing the killing ourselves. And as black men, we're angry. I don't know what it is, but black men, even when we get the money sometimes, we're still so angry. We got to get rid of that anger because we're always transgressive towards each other.
Starting point is 01:38:01 Yeah, because we're all hurting. We hurt individuals, and we end up just redistributing that pain towards each other. Yeah, because we all hurting. You know, we hurt individuals and we end up just redistributing that pain to each other. Like, we don't ever deal with our trauma from things that happened to us when we was young in the hood. Exactly, man. And I think the trauma has taught us, it's desensitized us, and we don't even see each other as brothers or family, you know?
Starting point is 01:38:19 And I think that's what it is. It's like the same way the police can dehumanize us and kill us because they don't value you or see you as a human being. We're starting to do that to ourselves. And I think for me what this march is, is re-identifying each other as brothers and family. Like we might disagree with each other, but I don't want to take your life. I don't want to kill you. I'm not going to be so angry that just, you know, interaction or just a disagreement makes me want to take your life.
Starting point is 01:38:44 You know, that means, because we don't value each other's life. So that's what this march is about, just reestablishing brotherhood, love for each other, looking your brother in the eye, looking your sister and say, I love you and I don't want to kill you.
Starting point is 01:38:55 Yeah, love and respect for each other. And just from my stint in prison, I can assure you, like one year down the road, you will not be thinking about whatever it is you're stressing and ready to shoot somebody over. Like, it'll be, you you, like, one year down the road, you will not be thinking about whatever it is you're stressing and ready to shoot somebody over. Like, you'll be like, oh, whatever. So it's like you're in your life for just this instant emotions,
Starting point is 01:39:14 and we got to get a grip. Why do you think this Nipsey Hussle situation hit different, man? Because I've seen a lot of deaths. I've seen a lot of people get killed, but this one hit different. I mean Right now It bothers me Badly Yeah it does for me
Starting point is 01:39:27 And it's amazing Because the average A lot of people Really didn't know his music Until now I loved his music I mean I loved it But I'm talking
Starting point is 01:39:35 Really I'm talking About a lot of women Not on the east On the west coast But like a lot of East coast women I know Didn't know his music
Starting point is 01:39:40 But they loved him Because he looked good Lauren Lauren London And all of that But it's like Yo his soul Just just was like it's something about it because he touched everybody i think that's what it is like and it's you can't even put words on it but he touched everyone when you look at what nip was doing the way he just carried himself like it was it was we
Starting point is 01:39:59 had like kindred spirits for me it was like that's how i carry myself i carry myself with a level of respect and honor and he moved in that way and every every time you've seen him he was the same way you know when i met him we we sat there and we was just building like we just had a real conversation out of mutual respect and when you see somebody moving on that path like that every time you hear them speaking and even when you you you equate them with a gang which is negative and they always talk about something uplifting, every time you have that conversation and then to see the way he lost his life.
Starting point is 01:40:28 And he was about to shine, bro. Yeah, he was just reaching to his peak. He was just, after all his grind, his hard work, just for me, it was like, one of us really make it. One of us who really did it from the bottom, who grinded, who didn't compromise their principles, really doing it the right way.
Starting point is 01:40:43 He didn't do nothing wrong. He didn't do anything wrong. He did everything right. And it was just like, when you look at that, and then you start doing the research, I think a lot of people now start researching it and just listening to them and be like, damn, this brother was really on to something.
Starting point is 01:40:55 You know, he was really one of these people that was pushing the culture forward. And I think just him having relationships, him having notoriety with a lot of celebrities, and then the work he was doing just caused this massive awareness around the world. And the love he showed his lady on social media, I know that's what drew a lot of women to him. That shit is just dope, and you don't see that a lot.
Starting point is 01:41:17 No matter what they may or may not have been going, he showed nothing but love for her, and we don't see it like that, especially from prominent figures. Even as an artist, he was so much more than just an artist. He was an entrepreneur. We see him opening the stores.
Starting point is 01:41:29 We see his marketing genius when it comes to him putting out his own projects and even what he was talking about on his music and his own evolution from when he first got in the game at a super young age
Starting point is 01:41:39 and then just the progress. It was what it was supposed to be, man. I think it's God's work. You look at, you know, God sends different prophets here. He sends different situations. And I think Nip's life and his death was for a purpose. You know, when you watch how the gang's unified after this, and you see how all around people are just way more aware,
Starting point is 01:42:02 they're more unified, they want to be more conscious of just how to do business, how to evolve, how to be united. You know, this is God's work. It seemed like when Jesus was sacrificed, you know what I'm saying, when he lost his life, it was for a reason, man. And certain people come here and they lose their life for a reason. I think Nip was one of those people. Yeah, I didn't see God in his death, but I definitely saw it in his life.
Starting point is 01:42:22 And that's what keeps bothering me because I'm like, you get back what you put out, right? That's what I always think. Like, Niff ain't deserve that, the way he went out. Not at all. When you look at how all these people are uniting over him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You hear his mother speak. Oh, my God, that was just... Yo, when I read
Starting point is 01:42:37 his sister's post, yo, bro, I cried, yo. Oh, man. I mean, I'm a grown man, and you know, and I think I'm tough and all that, and I don't cry. You know what I'm saying? I don't think I cried more about this than Pac. And I was the biggest Pac fan in the world, but I don't think I cried more about Nipsey's death
Starting point is 01:42:54 than I did anything. You know what I'm saying? I don't know why. It just touched my spirit a different way, and I think that's what pushed me to do this march. It's like we got to carry on the work that the man was doing and continue to unify us and educate us and move in the direction that he was moving for.
Starting point is 01:43:11 The marathon got to continue. Well, tell them about the march again. I know you got to catch a flight, so tell them about that march again. The march is going to be on Sunday the 14th in the Bronx on Fordham Road in the Grand Concourse. Everybody's welcome to be there. I think we all need to be there. Come in peace.
Starting point is 01:43:24 Come in peace. It's nothing else but peace. If you come in there, I want you to identify with everybody there that's going to be brothers and sisters, man. We're unifying. It's going to show the world that, you know, even in the worst situations, we're able to unite and that Nipsey
Starting point is 01:43:40 Hussle did not die for nothing. It's going to be celebrating Nipsey Hussle's life, not talking about his death, but celebrating what he stood for. You're coming to celebrate that. If you're coming to celebrate unity and you want to show brotherhood and just move forward, Kings stop killing. Kings March, Sunday the 14th. Chi Ali book out right now.

Starting point is 01:44:08 Good morning. J-N-V, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now we have to shout out Soul For Real for joining us. It's throwback Thursday. Yeah, salute to Soul For Real, man. You know, I'm sure that you've heard the bop, Candy Rain. I'm sure you've heard the bop, Every Little Thing I Do.
Starting point is 01:44:26 You know, Uptown Records is one of my top three favorite record labels of all time. I got love for Soul for real. Okay. Well, shout to them, all right? And you got a positive note for the people? Yeah, man. I just want to say rest in peace to Nipsey Hussle. Today is his funeral service.
Starting point is 01:44:38 I'm never, ever going to get used to saying rest in peace to Nipsey Hussle. I mean, I know people say everything happens for a reason, but sometimes that reason is just we have evil people in this world who submit their will to Satan, because I don't care what nobody says. This feels like a glitch in the matrix, but if Nipsey's death serves a bigger purpose, great, but it's very hard
Starting point is 01:44:56 for me not to sit here and think, man, I would much rather him be here with his woman and his kids than serving a greater purpose for the rest of us because that seems very, very selfish. But just remember, man, those we love don't go away. They walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard,
Starting point is 01:45:13 but always near, still loved, and still missed and very near and dear to our hearts. Breakfast club, bitches! We all finished or y'all done? Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine.
Starting point is 01:45:28 I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets.
