Dan is one of our producers. Yes. There was a used condom on the floor. Really? In his studio, along with a rapper and a Magnum rapper.

Don't tell. And somebody also, whoever it was, left their baseball hat. I thought you were about to say he left a semen all over the place or something. There was a used rapper on the floor. Now, I said at least whoever it was, it was using a condom. Was it a fit or a snapback? He has a picture. Oh, no, he has a hat. The hat is still in there,

but... And then there's some type of... It was in this room? It's not in this room. In his studio that he works out of. Really?

Dropping a clues bomb for people keeping the radio game alive? That's disgusting. When I was a young whippersnapper back in my day, okay, I would do

a lot of freaky things during overnight shifts. Now, that's just disrespectful, though. I got to work in this room. Now, that's just disrespectful, though. I got to work in this room. And then there's also some type of towel in there. Now, I don't know if that was one of the rags used to perhaps clean up your mess or whatever.

But how do you just leave that in there? Who is this young Harvey Weinstein using his position of so-called power here at the radio station to get some booty? Not a great idea, though. Who is this guy? What? Could have been a girl. Could have been a woman seeking a guy in here. And he left his fitted. He left his fitted.

Whoa, how good was it for him? But I think it's mostly guys that work here at night. They're that. Listen, man, you know, I've been doing radio for 19 years now, okay? I've done some kinky things in this radio station. Not just this radio station. Whoa, this one here?

Throughout the country. That's disgusting. I mean, listen, man. When I was still a young savage, you know, disrespecting my home, I was doing things that I had no business doing up here. What were you doing? I heard savage, disgusting. And he put his hand in some blood or two on an air mattress before.

What is that? It was a condom. Not in here. And he jumped up. He just showed me a picture. He saw the picture of a condom and he jumped up. Jesus Christ, you are. Why did you jump up? By the way. What's that going to do for you? That is the picture of a condom and he jumped up. Why did you jump up?

What's that going to do for you? That is the sign of a man who has been scared straight. Drop a clue, Bob. He saw a picture of a condom and a hat. It's not me. I just got here. You got to stop doing that. I'm not going to tell y'all what we were discussing yesterday, but somebody said something to

us yesterday and they weren't even trying to come at us. It was a compliment. And we just started explaining himself like he was on trial. And he just got so defensive. I'm scared straight. Everything scares me right now. Why did you jump at a picture of a... I thought the condom was over here.

I'm like, whoa, get that away from me. No, I was just saying they found a condom, and Dan, who works with us, he's one of our producers in his studio. He found a used condom this morning with a condom wrapper and a baseball hat. Poor guy or girl who did that, though, doesn't realize that his camera's all over here. Exactly. You're not on video having sex, but they'll be able to know who was in the building, at what time, and all of that good stuff. So I'm going to put you on blast once I find out on the radio. I'm letting you know that right now. All right.

Well, congratulations to the Yankees. They won last night, beat the Cleveland Indians I'm letting you know that right now. All right. Well, congratulations to the Yankees. They won last night, beat the Cleveland Indians. The next game is Friday versus Houston. Shout out to CeCe Sabathia, who pitched an amazing game last night. Yes. That's why I was up late last night watching the game. So shout out to the Yankees.

And thanks to everybody who came out. We actually had a Wealth Wednesdays event at Juices for Life yesterday. It's for people who are starting their own businesses. You can see it. I put it on my Facebook Live so you can get all that information. But it was incredible. So many people that have their own businesses. Some people that have businesses that didn't work out and they want to know how to move forward.

Many people who have businesses they are planning to start. And just some great, great advice from people that were there on the panel. We had some experts there. Angelina from Google. And then we had my girl Rianca. She has her own company, Your Greatest Contribution. Of course, Stacey Tisdale who youina from Google. And then we had my girl, Rianca. She has her own company, Your Greatest Contribution. Of course, Stacey Tisdale, who you know from here,

and Karan from the National Urban League, who was giving people advice on how they can actually get investors into their company and come up with a business plan and all of that. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Van Jones will be joining us next hour. CNN's Van Jones. You know, I like Van Jones. Every now and then it seems like he goes in and out of the sunken place, but we'll discuss all of that.

All right, and also we got front page news, G. Yes, Atlanta, light one up. We'll tell you what just happened with marijuana in Atlanta. All right, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm still wilding that there was a used condom up here at work.

This is the thing, right? Not only was it a used condom, whoever the person was left their hat in the room. It looks like a work hat. It's a little dad hat, but it says year on it. And then it says delivered. So we should play a nice little game with guess what race it is, okay? Guess what race it is. Year!

That's what the hat said on it, all right? Okay. All right, well, let's get in some front page news. I put the hat set on it, all right? Okay. All right. Well, let's get in some front page news. Congratulations to the Yankees. They beat Cleveland 5-2, winning the series. They came back. They were down by two games, and they came back and won.

They play Houston Friday. So congratulations. Shout out to CeCe Sabathia. Pitched an amazing game last night. Now, in Thursday night football, the Eagles play the Carolina Panthers. Now, let's talk about Atlanta and weed. Yes, Mayor Kasim Reed has announced that he will decriminalize marijuana. He did sign that city council ordinance.

So while weed is still illegal, it is no longer criminalized. I'm confused. It's illegal, but it's not criminalized. So in other words, you're not going to go to jail. It's kind of that broken window of policing. You get a ticket. Yeah. Okay.

And so here's what Kasim Reed had to say. I signed the legislation decriminalizing jail penalties for less than an ounce of marijuana. If you have less than an ounce of marijuana, the most that can happen to you is that you would receive a $75 fine. Now, there's no reason for anybody to mess that rule up, okay? There's no reason for you to be riding around with more than an ounce of marijuana. 28 grams is enough, sir, especially if it's just recreational. That's actually more than enough. Yes, now for all these people that have a little bit of weed on them,

they're no longer going to have to go to jail for that. That don't mean y'all can just smoke all around the city of Atlanta now. No, no, it's still illegal. You can't just ride around in your car blowing down, sitting outside of... They're definitely going to do that. They're just going to take that stuff down the phone. You can't do that. I was just in Atlanta last weekend.

I didn't even know it was illegal there, the way everybody was smoking. Well, that's probably where you were at. That's how I feel about America. Yeah, in general. I mean, what's the big deal now? Now, where do you want to go next in this conversation? Donald Trump.

Let's see. He was talking with Fox News about Colin Kaepernick, and here's what he had to say about the NFL. I watched Colin Kaepernick and I thought it was terrible. And then it got bigger and bigger and started mushrooming. And frankly, the NFL should have suspended him for one game and he would have never done it again. They could have then suspended him for two games and they could have suspended him if he did it a third time for the season. And you would never have had a

problem. But I will tell you, you cannot disrespect our country, our flag, our anthem. You cannot do that. Mind your goddamn business. You're not the commissioner of the NFL. Roger Goodell don't tell you how to try to run the world, right? I don't know why he's so concerned.

I don't know. Jesus Christ. I really feel like this whole thing, if they were to just, if you want to nail, nail. If you want to stand, stand. It's just turned into such a huge. But what does it have to do with the president of the United States? Nothing. He has other things to worry about. I just feel like the Constitution should be respected at all times.

And if people have the right to protest, then allow him the right to protest. Period. What's wrong with that? But what does the NFL have to do with the president? Is he going to start telling me how to raise my son next? I just think he don't want people disrespecting the flag of the United States of America. Now he wants to protest the protests, but that's okay. People have the right to protest, man.

Respect the Constitution. All right, and I just want to make sure we acknowledge Puerto Rico. Now their death toll has risen to 45, and at least 113 people remain unaccounted for. So a lot of people are having issues also with the drinking water. They said when the urine of infected animals gets into drinking water, people are dying from that as well, contaminated water. So right now, 89% of the island still has no electricity. Almost 47% has no phone service. And a lot of the banks there are closed as well.

So even though they are making progress, there's still a lot more to be done. Shout out to our California listeners, too. I mean, I know what the California fires. I think they said over 20, 23 people have died. 23 people have been killed and hundreds more are missing. At least 285 people are still missing right now. Those fires always confuse me because I always think of those old commercials, Smokey the Bear, only you can prevent forest fires.

Right. So why don't they just put them out? Because it's dry conditions and it's spreading too quickly. Spreading fast, very fast. Yeah, so there's hundreds of firefighters there, but it's impossible to contain the fires because of the conditions. It's windy, it's dry, so it's spreading way too fast. I would think that America has a need for more firefighters because I don't know any firefighters. Like, I know a lot of police officers.

I think I know one. I don't know. Like, I know a lot of servicemen, but I don't know any firefighters. Like, I know a lot of police officers. I think I know one. I don't know, like, I know a lot of servicemen, but I don't know too many firefighters. Like, you wouldn't have somebody who'd say I'm a firefighter.

So randomly, L'Oreal's, my friend L'Oreal, her uncle passed away. He was a firefighter and they actually had a memorial for him yesterday. Really? And she was saying

there were hundreds of firefighters out there like marching in the streets. See, see, I'm saying that's the first time she's seen a lot of firefighters in a long time. Yeah, she was saying yesterday

I didn't realize there were so many. It's like seeing a bunch of Native Americans. You're like, wow what I'm saying? That's the first time she's seen a lot of firefighters in a long time. Yeah, she was saying yesterday, I didn't realize there were so many. It's like seeing a bunch of Native Americans. You're like, wow, I'm telling you. All right, well, that's front page news.

I thought it was doing so well. That's a good way to go out. Right, well, it started off as a movie on BET, then they made it into a series, so now it's going to end with a two-hour movie as well. How many seasons do they have so far? Four seasons. That's a nice run.

You had a movie, four seasons, and ended with a movie. Great run. Drop on the clues bombs for Gabrielle Union. Now, Gabrielle Union posted on Instagram, To every fan of being Mary Jane, we have all worked so tirelessly to bring you a show that we could be proud to be a part of.

to his wife. He said, thanking God for this beautiful, strong woman that I'm lucky enough to still be calling my wife today. You are truly amazing. Love you. Woman Crush Wednesday. My effing rib. Hashtag hearts. P.S.

Please feel free to insert your hate below. I'm as strong as it gets, people, so that ish doesn't faze me. I'm not a bitch, which is why my page isn't private. I hope your negativity makes your day better. Love ya. Dropping the clues bombs with Kevin Hart. I like that. Ironically, Kevin Hart stood tall through his cheating situation, and he has come out unscathed, relatively.

I think so. Right. People forgot about it. Nobody was even talking about it anymore. Because more heinous things came out. You got Harvey Weinstein. You got Kevin Hunter. Well, let's talk about Harvey Weinstein right now, okay?

He has made his own statement. His wife, Georgina Chapman, is leaving him. He said, I am profoundly devastated. I have lost my wife and kids, whom I love more than anything else. He said, I fully support her decision. I didn wife and kids, whom I love more than anything else. He said, I fully support her decision. I didn't stand in Georgina's way when we discussed the separation. I encouraged her to do what was in her heart. I know she has to do what's best for the children, for herself and her business.

She employs 130 people. I don't want her and my children to be hurt any more than they already have. I truly love Georgina, and I hope one day we can reconcile. Although right now, I don't know if that could possibly happen. He put out a statement? He didn't write that. His lawyer had to write that. No, he's, well, he said it, but I don't know who wrote it. I think Harvey Weinstein is either going to kill himself or he's going to out everybody.

Well, now the police did come because they said he was suicidal. Apparently his daughter called 911. She showed up at his place. Their argument spilled out into the street. He yelled at her, you're making it worse. And then he was trying to get a ride from random vehicles that were driving past, trying to flag down a ride. And that's when she convinced her dad to go back in the house and

shortly after called 911 and the police came. Now, according to a close friend of Harvey Weinstein, he's not suicidal. It was just an argument that Harvey was having with his daughter. She was crying and he left his therapy session to go and comfort her. She overreacted at the situation out of love and support for her dad. Oh, that's an old-school white man, though.

Old-school white men lose everything. They go try to jump off a building or something. And, you know, his college is going to revoke his honorary degree. They've made moves to do that already at the University of Buffalo. He had an honorary degree? Well, he had an honorary doctorate of humane letters. So he went there, graduated, but they gave him

another degree that was honorary. Charlemagne, the God wants an honorary degree. I don't know how many times I gotta keep telling y'all this over and over and over. I would like an honorary degree,

okay? You could get an associate's right somewhere. I wanna hang my honorary degree up next to my wife's real degrees, okay? We'll get you associates. That's what I really want.

We'll get you associates. No, I don't want an associate's. I want an honorary from somebody. We'll give you a sixth degree of separation. Can I get one in communications? Somebody? Somebody give Charlemagne an honorary degree. South Carolina State?

Somebody. An associate. South Carolina somebody? We'll get you associates. Now, listen to this. The University of Southern California has rejected a $5 million donation from Harvey Weinstein

that was supposed to support women filmmakers. Really? Yes. Take the money, man. But Rutgers University is keeping their $100,000 donation. Drop on the clues bomb for Rutgers. Why would y'all give the money back? Take the money.

The money ain't negative. Listen to this bird over here. What's wrong with taking the money to better other people? And Jay-Z is talking about buying Harvey Weinstein's interest in the company, in the Weinstein company. Now, you know, he did the Khalif Browder story with them. He has a Trayvon Martin miniseries slated for production. That's all with the Weinstein's interest in the company, in the Weinstein Company. Now, you know, he did the Khalif Browder story with them. He has a Trayvon Martin miniseries slated for production. That's all with the Weinstein Company. So he is planning to team up with another famous movie producer and a billionaire.

And they're talking about purchasing that 23% interest in the company. I heard about that. Lee Daniels, right? But, you know, I think Jay-Z probably should just continue to build his own production company. Well, he's already teamed up with them. They already teamed up with them. They got projects already in the works. Yeah.

All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. What college is online where you can only take online courses? A lot. Which one? I don't want no honorary degree from online. We can give him an honorary degree.

I don't want to tell him, Online classes are hard, too. University of Phoenix is just online? I don't want honorary. Yeah, we can get you on University of Phoenix. No, no, no. Yes, I like that. What about the University of the West Indies?

The University of the West Indies. Why not? That's a great university. They're actually honoring me next year. Really? At the university. You want me to ask them for you? First of all, don't tell me what kind of honorary degree I want, all right?

Okay, I don't want no online honorary degree. You guys, I have to get an honorary degree before Charlamagne. Now, you being picky? No! You already got a degree, a real one. You went to school. I ain't go to college. Now you being picky.

I'm so cracked. Well, why don't you go to college, then? No, I ain't got time. Why don't a degree, a real one. You went to school. I ain't go to college. Now you're being picky. I sold crack. Well, why don't you go to college, then? No, I ain't got to go to college. Why don't you go to college? Nick Cannon went to college. No, he didn't. Don't believe in people. He wants to be picky now.

He didn't even go to school. Now, I want to pick where I want my degree from. Hey, you take your SATs and you go to college. Yeah, you take your SATs. I took my SAT before. What'd you get? A seven-something. Oh, there you go.

That's terrible. I got a 1290. Oh, I thought something was good. I ain't know. All right. When we come back, Van Jones will be in the building. His new book,

Beyond the Messy Truth. He's playing in no collars with a 790. I want an honorary degree. Okay. Christmas is coming, universities. Pay attention.

University of Phoenix. Holla at him. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. That was Kendrick Lamar with Loyalty. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. We've been waiting for him to come up here for a while now. Van Jones. Van Jones is here. In the house. He has a new book, Beyond the Messy Truth, How We Came Apart, How We Come Together.

Now, Van, early on, I was a believer that we had to have engagers and resistors, meaning we have to have people who engage with this administration. And we had to have people who resist. But now I see no point in engaging whatsoever. So I often wonder why do you continue to give Trump the benefit of the doubt? Oh, I'm not giving Trump

the benefit of the doubt. I mean, Trump is, I mean, he's proven himself to be a horrific dumpster fire of racism and ignorance and you know, I mean, we have the whole show just talking about how terrible he is. I'm trying to figure out how the people who are not crazy, because the crazy is now taking over, can get something done.

So my book, Beyond the Messy Truth, is part of a crusade against crazy and trying to show how really, frankly, you don't get an outcome this messed up unless both parties are way off track. And so I'm trying to actually give some tough love to both parties because I don't want an outcome this messed up unless both parties are way off track. And so I'm trying to actually give some tough love to both parties because I don't want this to happen again. People act like this couldn't happen again. He could be reelected.

He could be reelected. And you could have a Ivanka Trump in there. Unless we figure out what we can do differently, we are going to be in a world of hurt. I'm glad to hear you say that, Van, because sometimes I be thinking you in a sunken place. Because you were so harsh against Trump during the campaign. You even called it a white lash. Yes. And that's in the book, too. It's in the book. The chapter's in the book.

You said it's a white lash. It's a myth. The myth and reality is a white lash. But sometimes I just feel like you give Trump the benefit of the doubt, and I wonder why. Well, listen, I don't know what you mean by that. If Trump says something that makes sense, I say, look, Trump said something that made sense. When he says something that makes sense, I say, look, Trump said something that made sense. When he says something that doesn't make any sense, I whoop

his butt. So 99% of the time I'm whooping him. So for whatever reason, the one or two times I've tried to give, listen, I'm not going to just sit up here and not call it honest. My job in the news, if he says something good, even if it's one time out of a thousand, I'm going to say, you know what, he had a point there. And then our folk will go crazy, like, Van Jones done joined the Klan. I'm like, come on now. You know, we're trying to figure out what he's done that's good. Like, what could you say in this campaign that he's done that's good?

Hey, listen, he has done almost nothing that's good. There were a couple of moments in some speeches where I thought he actually sounded like a president. Yeah, when he honored the Navy SEAL. Yeah, and look, I'm going to tell you what. My dad was a veteran. I don't care what anybody says. When they walked into that chamber, the Democrats were on one side, Republicans on the other side. When that woman stood

up, I give him that credit. But also, that whole night was whooping his butt behind. That same night, he was already letting you know he was coming after the Dreamers. And I was on him for that. People went crazy. But listen, I don't want to talk about me. Because he said in that moment he became present.

Absolutely. Well, listen, how much have I said on TV you've agreed with? Oh, a lot. Yeah, so what's wrong with us that we will freak out about one thing? We're so fragile. If somebody says one thing we don't agree with, that becomes the whole conversation. Here's what I want you guys to think about.

This year, the work that I do, because I'm only on CNN like a few minutes a day, we were able to pass five bills in California to change the juvenile justice system to try to get some of our young people home. I work with something called the Dream Corps, Love Army. I'm an actual activist. I'm not just a pundit.

I think that there's way more good people out here who really understand that Trump ain't about nothing, but we aren't showing them how they could be about something. And so my book is really a roadmap toward how we can actually be about something. Fine, some people are going to be Republicans, some people are going to be Democrats, some people are going to be black, white, different regions.

But you got the criminal justice system that is so broken that even the Republicans admit it. How do we use that to get some folk home? We've got an addiction crisis. Now it's not just our folks addicted to narcotics. White folk now addicted to opioids. They're dropping like flies. How do you use that to get something done for our folk and for everybody? It's not good enough just to be anti-Trump.

We have to be for our community and for real solutions. And that's what my book is about. My book is a roadmap with real solutions, real answers, stuff we can get done. Even if some people stay Republicans, fine. But you can be a Republican and not support a complete lunatic. Right, which just actually happened in the news, Senator Corker. Corker, yes. From my home state of Tennessee.

Right, and he was even talking about Donald Trump and not agreeing with him. And Donald Trump attacked him and said the reason he did it was because he wasn't endorsing him for re-election. But he was saying, look, this guy is running the White House like it's a reality show. Yeah, and it was a daycare center. Adult daycare center. Adult daycare center. Now that is, you know, when you have a Southern Republican going at him like that, that lets you know on the one hand it's a positive,

but also you're having a complete breakdown now because now the crazy has just taken over. Meanwhile, at the grassroots level, look at what happened in Puerto Rico. The island was almost wiped off the map. The president's playing golf. But what happened? The people stood up. Puerto Rican celebrities stood up.

I'm with Roc Nation. Jay-Z and them, they were sending like plane loads full of stuff. People are going to have to do that, you know, step up, you know, and deal with stuff. And the other thing I just want to say with regard to this book, I went to West Virginia. I went to Indiana. I went to all these red so-called counties and stuff where people voted for Trump. I wanted to talk with them. Why would you vote for somebody who, if your child acted like him, you would put him in timeout or call a psychiatrist?

They got the same problems we got. They got no jobs, just like us. They got drug problems, just like us. Their courts don't work, just like us. And yet common pain is not leading to common purpose. And I realize we're getting tricked. Now we got poor white folk mad at poor black folk and poor Muslims and poor Latinos. And we mad at them.

And the only people winning are the same people at the top. And my concern about what Trump is doing. He's so incompetent that a lot of his policies are not getting passed. He's putting them up there. They get knocked down in court. He's got to start over. Thank goodness he's an incompetent bigot. Because if he were a competent bigot, we'd have problems.

But it's not just what he's doing to the policies. He's changing the culture now. You're starting to get to where everybody is angry and divisive and paranoid and crazy like him. As long as that is the atmosphere. Trump-ism is winning, even when Trump is not. I want to create an atmosphere where the good people,

I don't care what party you're in, if you don't want to see people getting shot up, cities getting wiped off the map by hurricanes, and the government not doing anything, we should be working together on something.

All right, we got more with Van Jones when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club. Van Jones is in the building.

Charlamagne? Do you think the damage is irreparable at this point? I don't think anything is irreparable. You know, I do a lot of work in prisons and, you know, I've seen people whose lives have been horrifically, from a child, messed up and have made mistakes and then become some of the best

people you've ever met and come home and are heroes. So I know what resilience is. I know what's possible, but we have to, here's the thing. I don't know what we should do. I know what we should stop doing, but part of what we've got to stop doing is we're almost addicted now to all the madness. We were almost adapted to the absurdity, and we think that we're doing well just by pointing out the absurdity. I want to point out the absurdity, but I also want to point out some real solutions.

We're discussing problems, we're not discussing solutions. I was going to say that. How do we get to some real solutions? We talk about everything else, but the main problem isn't an answer. Yeah, for instance, like this whole NFL controversy.

Right. People forget. It started out about police community relations. Yes. Police brutality. That's why Kevin Digno in the first place. That's what it was all about. Now it's about free speech for athletes.

It's about the American flag. It's about Cap getting a job. It's all kind of other stuff. And look, I'm for Cap getting a job. I'm for free speech. They go, oh, well, you know, it's about insulting soldiers. Nobody said a word about soldiers. But now you see how far off the point we are?

I agree 100%. We are so far off the point. Now, in the book, I point out real serious criminal justice reform that's possible to pass because Republicans have been passing some of this stuff in their states. We don't ever jump on and say, hold on a second. If Kasich in Ohio and Deal in Georgia and Rick Perry in Texas can close prisons, we should be closing them everywhere. Now, you have a blueprint in the book, right? Yes. Because you feel it's effective.

Why do you think this blueprint would be effective, and what's your blueprint? Well, the blueprint is basically, it lays out a couple of issues that, if you assume that most Republicans are going to stay Republicans, then fine. Then be better Republicans. Don't be a Republican falling behind a lunatic. Be a good Republican. If you assume most Democrats are going to stay Democrats, then good. Let's be better, more effective, solution-oriented Democrats.

What would that open up the door for? Criminal justice reform would be the first thing you could get done because you have Republicans and Democrats on board with that. You got white folk and black folk and brown folk who are on board with that. This Kalief Browder documentary that I got a chance to be a part of is blowing up. People are looking at that black and white. Hey, what? We putting children in jail? They killed themselves? They ain't been convicted of anything? Let's do something looking at that black and white. Hey, what are we putting children in jail? They killed themselves. They haven't been convicted of anything. Let's do something. So

that's one positive. If it's a negative, but there's a positive solution, we can get something done about. Also, like I said, this addiction crisis, when it was just us, nobody cared. Let's just be honest. But now there are more people dropping dead from these painkiller overdoses today than were dropping dead of HIV AIDS at the height of the crisis in the 80s. And it's mostly these red, you know, Republican districts. So now they have an interest in figuring out what are we going to do? And they don't want to lock everybody up behind it.

So there's an opportunity there. And the last thing I'm gonna say is, listen, all the jobs that are coming down the pipe, nobody's being trained for. Nobody knows how to work on artificial intelligence, drones, smart screens, virtual reality, augmented reality. Where is the job training programs for that? Where are they going to make the robots? The robots are going to tell me to have a job.

And the poor white people are going to be mad at the robots. Exactly. So we have an opportunity to focus on some of that sort of stuff. And then the other thing is, so that's policy. Everybody doesn't work on policy. The other thing in the book, it's a lot of resources for how to get involved because a lot more people would want to get involved than know how to get involved. A lot more people would want to be a part of the solution than know how. So we just wind up tweaking each other. So we put about a third of the book is just different resources,

different groups you can join, documentaries you can watch, books you can buy, podcasts you can subscribe to, so that we can start having a more intelligent conversation. And now Cut50, that's your mass incarceration organization, right? Yes, sir. Are you making any progress? And what challenges have you seen like with the Trump administration and with Attorney General Jeff Sessions? Well, look, I mean, Jeff Sessions

has just put the car in reverse and is backing up, not over Obama's policy, but over our communities. Because Obama and Eric Holder, when they were there, I mean, listen, they just looked at the numbers and said, we're locking up all these people for stuff that, you know, rich folks' children do every day. Right, and you talked about that in the book,

because you went to Yale for law school. And you said in New Haven, in that community, people were going to jail for using drugs, but students were going to rehab. I mean, it was crazy. I mean, I grew up in the rural South. My dad was born in poverty and segregation. He joined the military to get out. He put himself through college.

My dad got his whole family out of poverty. I went up and went to Yale Law School. I get to Yale. The rich folks' children are doing more drugs than any poor kid has ever seen. And now I'm going to jail. The police will drive past the campus with their lights flashing to go to the hood and put our kids in jail. Because it's not a war on drugs in their community. No, it's not.

I mean, it's called experimenting with drugs. They don't even call it a crime. It's, oh, they're experimenting with drugs. And so Obama knew that. Obama went to Harvard. Eric Holder knew that. So they put in place policies to start pushing us in a positive direction and a fair direction. Now Trump has got Sessions backing up over those policies and over our people.

That's terrible. Here's the good news, though. Only 10% of the people who go to jail go to federal jail. 90% is state and local. And at state and local, we're finding Republicans and Democrats, black, white, and Latino who say, if nothing else, we don't want to spend this much money locking folk up. We don't have this much money. And so cut 50, like I said, this year we got five bills passed in California.

We hope the governor signs it. It's going to actually change our juvenile justice system to help bring more of our young people home, get them the help that they need. This is under the era of Trump. You know, at the same time, those Trump voters, who everybody's mad at, I said, listen, hurt people holler. They don't like Black

Lives Matter, but they're hollering for a reason. If these Trump voters are so upset they're going to go vote for somebody that they wouldn't even want at their dinner table the way he acts. Let me go talk to them. I went to coal country and I found that a lot of these coal miners, 20,000 of them had lost their health insurance and nobody did anything about it. So we worked with them and got them their health insurance back. Now, are they going to then turn around and help us or vote for Democrats?

No, not at all. But they might vote for a better Republican next time if they realize that everybody in the country is not against them. We have to be willing, especially African-Americans. We have a tradition of moral leadership in this country that if you took the black community out of America, it would be a very terrible place.

We've stood up for every cause, every constituency, against every war, every social program. All the positive stuff in America we are disproportionately responsible for. So when people get into so much pain and anguish, they start going behind neo-Nazis and crazy people. I think we have

something to say to them. Listen, we're not going to turn on each other. We're going to turn to each other. We got more with Van Jones when we come back. Keep it locked. It's Cardi B with Bodak Yellow. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.

We are The Breakfast Club. Van Jones is in the building. We see when Steve Harvey tried to have a conversation, black community turned on him. You know, how do we begin those conversations? You're having them too, Van. I mean, you talk in your book about how you have a desire, you know, to find compassion for all sides

And you explain some of your personal reasons for that And if you ever watch The Messy Truth on CNN We see you going out there having those tough conversations I think that it's important for us to really recognize That there are these pockets of pain out there in the white community And if we don't go out there, who's going to go out there? These neo-Nazis are going to go out there. And the fact that we never showed up,

they use that against us. They say, oh, well, see, look, they only care about themselves. We should only care about ourselves. But they don't come to our side neither. That's a good point. I feel like we're always trying to extend an olive branch and reach out to them, but they never come to the hood. Yeah, well, listen, I think that that's correct, but it also just goes back to the same point we were just talking about.

We've always exerted that moral leadership. Look, it's not fair. It's not fair. But it's required. If we started acting like them, it's a wrap. You know what I mean? It's like, yeah, there's a lot, not all of them, but there's a lot of them that act terrible. And that is a reason for us to act better, not worse.

And I know it's tough. People say, listen, I'm tired. I'm at work. I gotta hear this crap at work. I'm getting harassed on the street corner by police. I go to the airport. People look at me funny. Now you're telling me I have to be the moral one? You're a black identity extremist. Exactly. Now the FBI come at you saying you're a black identity extremist,

and you tell me I've got to be the moral one? And here's my answer. Yes. Why is it such a personal thing for you, though? I mean, you discuss some of it in the book, but can you tell us a few of that? Well, A, I grew up in the rural South in a small town where black folks of modest means and white folks of modest means actually lived

and the town wasn't big enough for us to be too far apart. We went to the same school. So did I. Exactly. And so I have a little bit more of an understanding. And also, you know, when I got my first job, it was a manual labor job with a lot of white guys.

And, you know, I heard everything. And, you know, you've seen that movie. But what happened was I went to college and they didn't. I got a minority scholarship. They didn't even, you know, enroll. Within a couple of years at that same newspaper,

I went from being a manual laborer to being a reporter, and they went from being manual laborers to being laid off. And I watched that, and I'm like, you know what? I can understand. I'm not saying I forgive it, but I can understand how somebody could get in that man's ear and say, look, see, he got a head. Now, in the book, you have a chapter, White Lash, Nifts and Facts.

And you once said Trump's victory was a white lash. Do you still stand by that? Yeah. I said it at the time, and I'll say it again. It was a white lash in part against a black president and a changing country. And that's been proven to be true statistically and everything else. But it also said that night it was other

things as well. It was rebellion against the elites. It was a complete failure of the polling establishment and a whole bunch of other stuff. But again, you can't deny the pain. I mean, that's true. I mean, how are you going to have somebody endorsed by the Ku Klux Klan

and you can't figure out how to get out from under their endorsement and then say race had nothing to do with it? That doesn't make any sense. At the same time, you can't act like all 60 million people who voted for him are all in the Klan, right? You have the Klan in there, but you have a bunch of other people in there.

Some of the people in there just didn't like Hillary Clinton. Some of them are just hardcore against abortion. You had a whole bunch of people that voted for him for a bunch of reasons, and I'm not going to make the mistake of giving him all 60 million of those people. Even women were voting for him, which I found appalling. Which is very crazy.

No, no, no. No, get it right now. 96% of black women voted against him. White women. But the majority of white women voted for him. Now, that's very interesting to me. They often will say that black men are sexist. And we have a lot of sexism in our community that we have to deal with, no doubt.

But 88% of black men voted for Hillary Clinton. And we got no credit. In other words, 9 out of 10 black men are ready to have a female commander in chief. We got no credit. Meanwhile, only 46% of white women would vote for a white woman. Now, hold on a second. Excuse me. Can we get at least a little bit of amen on the fact that

we are more willing than white women to vote for white women as black men? So these are the kinds of things that we don't talk about enough. But that's something that I feel like we should be very proud of. And also, you know, recognize that our communities have been ready. Latinos, Asians, African-Americans, Native American communities have been ready for positive change for a long time. And they use big money and gerrymandering and lies in the media to keep our power low because they don't want to go in a positive direction. But if you look at our, if it was up to us, you know, we would be in very few wars. We would have very strong schools. The environment would be clean. Taxes would be in very few wars. We would have very strong schools. The environment would be clean.

Taxes would be fair. And you'd have a great country. So we shouldn't give up now just because you had one bad election and it was exposed a bunch of stuff has been there. We should double down. Does it make it hard for you to trust certain white people now? Because they could be sneaky Trump supporters.

Like you're married to a white woman. Did you check and make sure she didn't vote for Trump? I'm quite sure. She was in the 46% that voted for Hillary, and she was proud of it and worked hard for it as well. Look, for me, I trust pretty much everybody to be imperfect. I don't know what I can do to help somebody do better, but I know what I can stop doing. It's very hard for black people to trust Republicans overall, because even

when they say something positive, they turn right around, they do nine other things that are so negative that you got 90% of black people just vote for Democrat. Why? Because they don't seem to like us very much. They don't seem to respect us very much. It's hard to vote for somebody that don't like you, don't respect you. Right. At the same time, if I were a white dude living in Appalachia and I listened to somebody say cracker ass cracker on the radio, I would say, hmm, maybe they don't like me.

Right. Maybe they don't respect me. And it would be hard for me then to vote for them. So all I'm saying is let's at least make sure that we're doing, we aren't doing any of the things that we don't want done. It's a golden rule stuff. It's a simple stuff. We flunking Sunday school and kindergarten right now.

Do unto others. Yeah, I mean, do unto others. And I mean everybody is flunking Sunday school and kindergarten in terms of how we're treating each other. I don't know if by me reaching out to those coal miners, even one of them would be appreciative or make a change in them. But here's what I do know. When I did that, I stopped Trump from changing me. I don't know if I can change them, but I'm not going to let Trump change me. And that's number one. I'm not going to let Trump change me. And that's number one.

I'm not going to let this man change me, and I'm not going to let him pull our movements down low. Well, there you have it. The book, Beyond the Messy Truth. And we appreciate you for joining us. Oh, thank you. Look, I'm happy to be here. Don't be a stranger, man. Have me back.

Have me back. I appreciate it. All right. It's Van Jones. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.

Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Birdman is not playing with y'all. He was on his Instagram Live, and he has some issues. If you want to make any type of comments about his situation with Lil Wayne, he's saying that let this be a warning to you. Check it out.

I be hearing all you talking about this Lil Wayne shit. Lil Wayne this, Lil Wayne that. Bitch, Lil Wayne my son, I raised him. He ain't had nothing. I brought him to be something. I ain't got something. Bitch, you think I ain't gonna make sure he's straight? I'm gonna show all you that ever got in my business. I'm gonna show you don't he's straight? I'm going to show all you **** that ever got in my business.

**** you, ****. I'm going to show you don't play with me, ****. I'm what you call a **** real mastermind. You heard me? And if you cross my line, you already know. I ain't even got to tell you. Well, stop all that flexing on the gram and go pay Lil Wayne then. He took out his fronts too.

He got some veneers. Yeah, yeah. No more goatees. Let's stay focused on the issue at hand. Stop all the flexing on the gram and simply go pay Lil Wayne. He said he's a mastermind with it, so I'm thinking this. How much of a mastermind do you have to be to go to the bank and get the money you owe Wayne and write him a check for it and keep it moving?

It's got to be something, though. You got to think if everybody's saying it to you, what are you going to come beat everybody up? First of all, ain't nobody was even thinking about that. Okay, but he got on Instagram and since he bought it up, well, go pay Lil Wayne. You know what happens? You're on Instagram Live and people are leaving comments. That's probably exactly what it does. And that's probably what happens.

Yeah, that's probably exactly what it does. What do you think of the way they're thinking right now? Well, run me my money then. It's not even hard. It's not difficult. Didn't Ross reply to it? We can saw. Here's what Ross had to say.

You're a year late and five years late paying that man his money. Stop with the jokes. Bring that, baby. It's just that simple. Ross with the action. Write a check. Is it not that simple? When you owe somebody money, what do you do? Pay them. When you owe somebody money, what do you do, Envy? Definitely

write them a check. And if you don't have the check, work out some type of payment plan. It's simple. Give me something. At least let me know that you know you owe me some money. It's simple. All that flexing on Instagram, you really don't have nobody to be mad at but yourself. Just write Wayne a check. Stop playing with my name. I ain't me some money. It's simple. All that flexing on Instagram, you really don't have nobody to be mad at but yourself. Just write Wayne a check. Stop playing with my name.

I ain't said no money. See, Shalem and he just told you. Shalem got a little nervous. He's like, where did it come from? Y'all both had nervous moments this morning. And we had one. All right, now here's some sad news. We are hearing exclusively behind the scenes

that Cameron and Juju have broken up and this will be revealed on the new season of Love and Hip Hop. Why are we saying we heard that exclusively behind the scenes? Cameron told me

him and Juju broke up. I didn't know I was allowed to say all that. I didn't think so either. Are you sure? He said... Yeah, I saw Cameron in the gym.

Did he say... You can say I said it or did he say... Alright, well, coming straight from Cameron's mouth to your ears, him and Juju have broken up but they're still good. He said she's good, well, coming straight from Cam'ron's mouth to your ears, him and Juju have broken up, but they're still good. He said she's good, whatever,

but I guess he doesn't want it to be revealed on Love & Hip Hop. So they're not together anymore. Right. Maybe they'll get back together. That's super duper sad. You know how they do things. I love them together. You know, they've been broke up, I guess, behind the scenes,

but then, you know, the new season of Love & Hip Hop is going to come out and they got a whole scene set where Juju's crying and her girls are around her crying and all of that good stuff. Oh, man. Yeah.

It's going to have the sad music playing. So did Kim Osario. Probably no furniture in the apartment. Drop on the clues bombs for Kim Osario. I heard she produced

the whole scene. The whole scene or season? Scene. Yes, Kim Osario is now working on Love and Hip Hop. She has been. All right. Now, Kylie Jenner, according to InTouch, has been dumped by Travis Scott, even though she's pregnant. Now, this is InTouch reporting exclusively. I like this young man. I don't even know him. They weren't even together for that long before she got pregnant. So allegedly he is now freaking out about the responsibilities of being a father. And he's

also concerned about the curse of the Kardashians. What responsibilities? That girl worth hundreds of millions of dollars. You have to be a dad. It's not about the money. If I was worth a hundred million dollars and you got me pregnant, I don't need you. You a bird. I didn't know you could get pregnant. Yo, Charlamagne is a bird, man.

Capital B. That daddy thing is overrated when you got $100 million. We'll be fine. Right. So we shall see what happens. Now, Wendy Williams has made a tearful apology on her show. We told you what she had to say about women who are victims of rape. She was discussing Nelly's situation and telling the young lady, well, you shouldn't have been on a tour bus,

and basically blaming the victim. We call that victim blaming. We don't know if this actually really happened, though. But in general, she's saying, as young women, we need to not put ourselves in those situations. Well, of course, people were upset. Because how can you blame a victim instead of blaming the person that did something wrong

and assaulted someone? So here she is now apologizing for her words getting, quote, misconstrued. You know, sometimes I might say something that you don't understand. And maybe cavalierly you caught my comments saying, well, you got to watch where you go. I didn't mean anything by it. What I meant is once upon a time, there was a girl named Wendy and she was only 13 years old, but looked like a woman. And this girl right here, when I visit my grandfather,

I remember specifically there was a pool hall around the corner that he would send me to get his white owl cigars. And those men in there were disgusting. Round of applause for Wendy Williams' fake tears, okay? Well, it doesn't stop there. Here's the rest of what she had to say. So all I'm saying regarding young women, and I apologize if my message was met with callousness,

but what I meant to say is young ladies, we should be able to go wherever we want to go, but we always have to know where the exits are. We always have to have our $20 bill. And we have to be aware. That's all I was saying. I apologize. Aware of what?

If a man rapes you, that ain't your fault. Right. How about telling these men. To stop raping women. Yeah. Like, stop. That's the real issue. But once again, I don't want to hear nothing from Wendy Williams

until she explains what's going on in her life in the same detail that she does everybody else. I need her to have that same energy with her headlines and the accusations of her husband cheating that she has with everybody else. And just to be clear, Nelly has not been charged with a crime. Exactly. So we don't know what's happening with this case, but we will continue to keep you updated.

He was arrested but not charged? Yeah, there was no bill. He's not been charged. He was released pending further investigation. They could do that? They could arrest somebody and then not charge them? Change their mind? Well, maybe they just decided you can arrest somebody and you don't get charged with something just because you got arrested.

I mean, listen, in those cases, being that I've had one before, like I said, I'm not going to call that girl a liar and I'm not going to call Nellie a rapist. I just say let the facts. Only the two of them, though. Let the facts of the case play out. But if you ask me, no, I don't think Nellie raped anyone. I don't think Nellie did it either. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Ms. Yee.

Charlemagne. Oh, man, we need Ben Affleck to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him this morning. All right. Let's just keep the theme of sexual assault going this'd like to have a word with him this morning. All right. Let's just keep the theme of sexual assault going this morning, why don't we? Great. All right. We'll get into that when we come back.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Charlemagne, say the gang. Don't get under the shade. Charlemagne. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate.

I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit it with the heat. It's a breakfast club, bitch. Who's donkey of the day today? Yes, donkey of the day for Thursday, October 12th goes to Ben Affleck. Now, this could just be hate because I'm still upset about how trash Batman vs. Superman was, but I don't think I'm hating because I've been watching this whole situation with Harvey Weinstein,

and if you are just getting out of prison and don't know what the hell is happening, Harvey Weinstein is losing everything because he is a sexual predator, a man in a position of power in Hollywood who used that position to get poom-poom. Several Hollywood stars have come out and said Harvey Weinstein

made unwanted sexual advances toward them. Some are saying he raped them. Those who did engage with him are saying they had no other choice because they thought if they didn't, they wouldn't have a future in Hollywood. Now, I haven't heard any reports where Harvey actually said, hey, sleep with me, I'll give you this role, or if you don't sleep with me, you won't get this role. But this is the mindset that these actresses have

when they are in these positions, and you can understand why, right? Now, when I hear these stories, I'm thinking to myself, there's no way harvey is the only one if you are in the business and even when you're not in the business you hear so many of these types of stories that's where the whole idea of the casting couch comes from right so harvey can't be the only one not only is he not the only one all these various people in hollywood knew what was going on and for whatever reason they decided to turn a blind eye now if you ask, I would say they acted like they didn't know what was going on because they, A, didn't want to ruin a relationship with Harvey Weinstein and any potential opportunities with him in the film world, and B, I think a lot of them threw a blind eye to what Harvey

was doing because they was doing it too, all right? Don't think for one second that Harvey Weinstein was the only man in the position of power in Hollywood who wasn't using that power to force Pum Pum and booty out of people. OK, so when I started to see all these male actors speaking out against Harvey, I said to myself, I hope their closet is clean. You know that saying you can't smoke crack in a glass trap house when you start pointing the finger at others and what they do. You better make sure your porch is clean. All these people in Hollywood trying to act holier than thou, like they didn't know what was going on, and some, I'm sure, were doing the exact same thing.

Hell, Harvey probably recommended some women to these guys. I am positive that it was men in Hollywood who were using their positions of power to get poom-poom as well. I'm sure they all felt entitled to whatever women and men were at their disposal. Okay, now, Batman, Ben Affleck posted on Twitter. Or is this Facebook? I can't tell anymore because they didn't give us more characters on Twitter now. Not everybody.

Yeah, Ben posted on some social media site. He says, I am saddened and angry that a man who I worked with used his position of power to intimidate, sexually harass, and manipulate many women over decades. The additional allegations of assault that I read this morning made me sick. This is completely unacceptable, and I find myself asking, what can I do to make sure this doesn't happen to others? We need to do better at protecting our sisters, friends, co-workers, and daughters. We must support those who come forward, condemn this type of behavior when we see it, and

help ensure there are more women in positions of power. That was Batman, ladies and gentlemen. Now, I agree with everything he said, but all I kept thinking was, Ben Affleck, you've been in Hollywood all these years. You and many others had to know what was going on, but when it benefited you to be quiet, you were silent, but for whatever reason, it doesn't benefit you anymore to be quiet,

so you're speaking out now. The thing about calling people out, though, is you have to make sure your resume is flawless. And if it's not flawless, you at least at some point in your life had to own your mistakes, apologize for your mistakes. You have to live your truth so no one can use your truth against you, especially in this age of

social media where evidence is always presented that can ruin your reputation in the court of public opinion. In the case of Ben Affleck, here's Exhibit A. Old Batman, the Caped Crusader, who came to take down the evil villain known as Harvey Weinstein, forgot about the time he was on TRL

and was caught grabbing a woman's breast without consent. Can we play that clip? He's like, I'm just free-spirited. It's so nice to see you. And he wraps his arm around me and comes over and tweaks my left boob. Nice to see you. I don't know what happened,

but Hillary also was like, ooh. I'm just like, what are you doing? And there was a little squeeze. I don't know what happened, but Hillary also was like, ooh. I'm just like, what are you doing? And there was a little squeeze. I don't know. We played the tape over a couple times. Yeah, he pulled that move. That's his move, yeah. Some girls like a good tweakage here and there.

I'd rather have a high five. Now, last time I checked, grabbing a woman's breath without consent was sexual assault. What do you think made him feel like he could do that? His position of power. Now, it doesn't stop there. Ben Affleck, back in 2004, was in Montreal promoting a movie called Jersey Girl. The movie was a Mary Max film. Mary Max was a company owned by Harvey Weinstein.

Now, let me set the scene for you. Ben Affleck has this young lady sitting on his lap the whole time throughout the interview, and she's trying to interview him. But it's kind of hard when the interview subject makes you sit on his lap and you know talk to you like this they would like it better if you did the show top once at the station wouldn't they well you usually show a lot more cleavage than this what's the story why are you covering it up today why it's sunday morning it's sunday morning i've never started before i'm getting the out i don't think you're trying to fool sunday morning you could be in. You should have that rack on display.

These breasts are very firm. Suspiciously firm, I have to say. I mean, they are like two giant stones. What just happened? How are you getting like this? No, because it's a sport bra. Oh, sport bra, that's why? Yeah, that's why.

Let's do a Janet Jackson stunt. Are you wearing your nipple ring? Holy sexual assault, Batman. Wow. All right, what a hypocrite. Let's do a Janet Jackson stunt. Are you wearing your nipple ring? Holy sexual assault, Batman. Wow. All right, what a hypocrite. Now, I know you hear these young ladies laughing, and you're like, oh, they're laughing.

They seem like they're enjoying it. Well, here's the thing. Anne-Marie Lowski or Hilary Burton could easily say all these years later that they were uncomfortable by that, and they would have every right to, okay? In fact, Hil Hillary tweeted out, Girls, I'm so oppressed with you brave ones. I had to laugh back then so I wouldn't cry. Sending love.

So yes, Ben, you think it's all fun and games, and these women are cool with you touching them because you're Ben Affleck, but they were just intimidated by your position of power. Not to mention, Ben Affleck was engaged to J-Lo when he was doing all of this, and I'm not here to judge Ben Affleck. I'm just here to show you that this is a great example of before you call someone out or chastise them,

just make sure that your actions and behaviors live up to and reflect the words, ideas, promises, and commitments that come out of your mouth. Please give Ben Affleck the biggest hee-haw, please. Jeez. And this is why not too many men in Hollywood are really speaking out against Harvey Weinstein because they are all guilty of doing

the same type of things. And if they do speak out knowing they were doing the same dirt, they could easily get their card pulled the way Ben Affleck just got his card pulled. And other actors have been coming forward and talking about not just Harvey Weinstein, but other people. It's the Hollywood way, baby. Has that ever happened to you, Yee?

Yeah, I actually was just talking about it at the A3C Festival on the panel I was on in Atlanta. What happened? Well, it's a long story, but I know we got to wrap it up. We'll talk about it. Tomorrow's Freaky Friday. It wasn't freaky. It is freaky.

It definitely wasn't. No. Let's just say I ended up without a job after it all went down. Well, there's no days we can use pervy for, okay? It's not that alliteration. But I promise I will tell the whole story. All right. All right, well, when we come back, ask Yee.

800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, call her right now. She'll help you out with your relationship. Hit her up. It's The Breakfast Club. Come on in. The Breakfast Club. That was

21 questions, 50 cents. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Shalom and the guy we are, The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? My name is Crystal. Hey Crystal, what's your problem this morning? I'm still sleeping with my son's father. We were

together for 10 years. We broke up for about two and a half years now. He currently has a girlfriend. Wow. She has found out plenty of times that we were sleeping together, but I want to be with my baby daddy. I'm just wondering if I should just let it go or what should I do?

Crystal, you went from the main chick to the side chick? Basically, yes. And so he's moved on with his life, but you haven't. I did. I was dating someone, but he found out that I was sleeping with my baby daddy, so we broke up. Okay. So the thing is this. Why did you guys break up in the first place?

Really, because he felt like I was being disrespectful to him. Like, disrespectful how? Like, I would get upset because he wasn't spending time with me, so I broke a few of his things. This sounds like a toxic relationship. But we're better now, though. We communicate better.

You're better now because he actually has a girlfriend and you guys aren't together. Maybe. That's the case. So what is he saying? Because he has a whole other girlfriend now. He's in a relationship. Is he talking about leaving his girlfriend? What's happening?

He always says that his heart is with me. And they have broken up before. We were talking for a little bit, but I was with the guy still. So, you know, once he found out, then we broke up. It was just like a lot of drama. Literally went to jail because of this girl. You went to jail because of this girl. You went to jail because of this girl? We both did. Yeah. This sounds like

a mess. Hurt and die. Here's the thing. Of course he's going to keep on sleeping with you on the side because you are allowing that to happen. He has a girlfriend. He's having everything he wants right now. He has a girlfriend who he's sleeping with and he has his baby mom who he's sleeping with.

He hasn't made a decision. Well, he kind of has made a decision because he's not breaking up with her to be with you. It's really up to him. It seems like he's with her only because I was with the other guy. Like, he does a lot of things that's tit for tat. Like, because I'm doing, oh, let me do it too. And he's literally admitted to that.

Well, that sounds really immature and not a great way to have a relationship with somebody who goes tit for tat. Listen, what it is is you guys have both made a lot of mistakes. Y'all were together for 10 years. You've moved on. He's moved on. You guys have never stopped sleeping together. You need to stop allowing him to sleep with you if he's not with you.

Yeah. Regardless of the fact he has a girlfriend, you are the side piece. That's true. And you can't allow yourself to be a side piece to him, to anybody, don't you? And you have a child

and imagine what your child is thinking. That's true because he does know what's going on. Right, that's awful. Do you want to set that example for your son? No.

To think that something like that is okay? Even just for the sake of your child, you have to have a healthy relationship. And in child, you have to have a healthy relationship. And in order for you guys to have a healthy relationship, if it does happen to work out, he's got to leave this other woman alone. You guys have got to forgive each other for things that you have done in the past. And you guys really need some therapy. Yes, I think so.

Even if y'all don't end up together, y'all need therapy on how to be great parents to your son. Yes, that's true. So you guys should work on that first. And if he doesn't leave this girl, you need to stop sleeping with him and allowing him to treat you like what you are, which is a side piece. Yeah, I agree. You know, that's not a good feeling and you can't be mad at the girlfriend for coming at you because you know he has a girlfriend. Yes, that's true. All right, Crystal.

Thank you. You're welcome, honey. I appreciate it. All things that people already know, but they just sometimes need to hear it, right? Alright, Yee, great advice. When we come back, you have a question, call up right now. 800-585-1051 is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Jade, good morning. Good morning. What's your question for Ye? So my boyfriend and I have been discussing getting married for the past couple months. And we're not having a ceremony.

We're pretty much like going to like the courthouse or something. All right. Go right down to City Hall and get married. Yeah. So but he doesn't want to do it without a ring. Okay. And so he's like he doesn't care if he has one, but he definitely wants me to have one because he doesn't want, like, a million people saying, oh, how are you married and

you're having to get your ring. But I tried explaining to him, like, the ring is, like, not really the sentimental thing behind the marriage. Like, I think it's more like the icing on the cake, but not more what's underneath. But it's sweet that it means something to him. But, on the other hand, why are we worried about what other people think? Right, and I tried to explain that to him, and he's not the type to care what other people think, so I

don't understand why that's important to him. I respect that it is important to him, but, you know, I'm having a hard time convincing him that, you know, that I'll be okay without a ring temporarily because we just had a baby. So do a fake ring. Yeah, I was gonna say, can he get you a ring right now

that you guys can upgrade later? A Mosin-Nagant or a Cuban Zirconia. Right, and he didn't even want me wearing a costume jewelry ring. He asked me to take the costume jewelry ring off my finger. He doesn't want it. I don't know.

He's really big about that. I mean, listen, I get it. It's something that means something to him and he wants to do something for you and he feels like you deserve this. So that's a great thing, but it's great on your behalf that you feel like that doesn't really matter. You just want to get married.

So what I will say is why not get a ring that's inexpensive? It doesn't even have to be fake. It could be inexpensive. It don't even have to have diamonds on it yet. And then you guys make a commitment that later on, when y'all got it together financially, he can upgrade the ring. Okay. I'll have that discussion today

and see how it goes. Cubic zirconia most of the night. You can get a small ring. Nobody can tell the difference. And that way when you're ready to afford a ring after you buy your home and take care of your kid, you can go back and buy one. I always felt like it's nice to have a ring that's not a traditional ring also. So even if you just got a gold

band or something like that, you know, that's not that expensive. It doesn't have to have the diamonds. It don't have to have anything on it. It could just be a symbol of, I'm married. And that's what he wants for you. Right. Okay. I'll have this discussion and see how he feels about it. Good luck. Thank you. Alright.

Ask E. 805-85-1051. You got rumors on the way, E? Yes, let's talk about Chance the Rapper. Once again, he is doing something great for his city. He's teaming up with Lyft. We'll tell you what he's doing. Alright, we'll get into that and more. Keep it locked. This is Breakfast Club. Good morning. I'm way up. I feel stressed.

Morning, everybody. That's not what the song says. D-J-N-V-E-N-G-L-A-Y-E. Show them in the guide. We are the Breakfast Club. I was speaking for the young man because when we walked in here this morning, we reported that we found a condom. We didn't find it. One of our producers, Dan we found a condom. We didn't find it. One of our producers, Dan, found a condom in the studio where he works. A used condom.

A used condom on the floor and a Magnum wrapper. And a fitted cap that said, yeah. And guess what else the perpetrator left behind? Yes, we have new evidence now. New evidence. The person left their credit card. Their credit card. I forgot what kind of card it was.

It was a Rush card. So the credit card has the person's name on it. Yes, it did. And that's just dumb. How did you leave all of those things? How did you come in here, have sex with someone,

leave a condom on the floor, leave your hat and your credit card and a rag? Can I say the word? White rag. Just say white rag. I need to know

who was this young woman or man you was with that was blowing your mind so much that you dropped everything. Oh, he definitely blew his mind. He dropped everything. The condom, his fitted cap that said year, and his credit card. And why'd you have your credit card out?

Were you sliding it through her ass cheeks? Were you watching old tip drill videos and trying to reenact those? How do we know it was a woman? That's a fact, too. That is a fact. That is a fact, too. That is a fact. We don't know.

You're right. We should never assume anything. You're right. That's true. You're absolutely right. Anyway, let's get to the rumors. That is a fact. That is a fact, too. That is a fact. You don't know. You're right. We should never assume anything. You're right. That's true. You're absolutely right. Anyway, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Eminem. It's about time.

What's going on? Rumor report. Rumor report. This is the rumor report. Talk to him. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, after Eminem's cypher against Donald Trump that was at the BET Hip Hop Awards, he's gotten over 2 million tweets tweets and that number is still rising.

And he's also going to be on Pink's new album, which is actually coming out tomorrow, Friday the 13th. It's called Beautiful Trauma, and he's featured on a track called Revenge. Here's what Pink had to say about how it all went down. I reached out to him in this case. I love him. I've always loved him. I think he's a lyrical genius. And I just to him in this case. I love him. I've always loved him. I think he's a lyrical genius. And I just wrote

him a love letter. There you go. Unpopular opinion, though, after putting further review, the Eminem freestyle was kind of mediocre. I loved the message in it. I loved the message. I loved the fact that he's a white man who used his privilege to combat prejudice. But

my song had the best freestyle. I shouted out my song also when I was watching. I'm just saying. My son killed it. But I'm not trying to compare the two of them. It was an incredible freestyle. It's still rap at the end of the day. No, no, we can compare.

It's still rap. That's why it's a cypher. It's still rap. I mean, they weren't battling against each other. One didn't have a beat. Exactly. Em was cheating. Em didn't have a beat.

My son had a beat. Right. Well, Em could have did whatever flow he wanted to the only reason I'm comparing it to it because they both have like the same type of messages

you know what I'm saying standing up empowerment all that good stuff well thank you to both of those artists for coming but Eminem had

an extremely clever it was still phenomenal it was kind of mediocre it was not mediocre it was man it definitely was not you compare it don't compare

and there were a lot of other artists that felt like that his rap was incredible. Yeah, because we think white ice is cold. It was okay. It was cool. No. It wasn't amazing. All right, now let's discuss Tyrese. Now, Tyrese actually did something great.

He bought his mom a house, and he said it was a good day because if there's an award in heaven for forgiveness, having compassion towards those who have broke your heart and let you down over and over and over again. I hope God doesn't skip over me. My mother is going to pull up in one hour. My heart is beating out of my chest. She was an alcoholic for 27 years. Substance abuse killed my childhood.

Here is Tyrese. Today, Father God, because of you, ripping that taste out of my mama's mouth. My mother has been sober for 11 years as of today, October 11th. And I just want to say thank you, Father. This is her new house. One thing about Tyrese is he don't need no Fast and Furious movies because every day of his life is a movie.

Absolutely. Well, you know, since you brought it up, he did also talk about The Rock. Now, he posted this old video that The Rock did. It was a joke at the time, but he said, haters come in forms, and my Kanye voice, Black Rose, is one of the greatest R&B soul albums of all time. And he posted this video. Just a little quick shout-out to Tyrese, his new album, Black Rose.

I just heard it. I literally just heard it. I heard the whole thing in my trailer, and I've got to say, in all honesty, it's the biggest piece of dog s*** that I have ever heard. It shouldn't be called Black Rose. It should be called Big Piece of Black Dog S***. And I never want to hear it again. And I'm never going to f***ing forgive him for wasting my time. That is time I will never get back. Jody, how much longer are you going to allow this disrespect?

This is like when Rodney kicked Lil' JoJo's foot over. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. I can't wait till Tyrese's biopic comes out. As a matter of fact, it's already out. Just go to his Instagram. You're stupid. We're till Tyrese's biopic comes out. Matter of fact, it's already out. Just go to his Instagram. We watching Tyrese's biopic right now. My goodness. And I pray Tyrese really bought

his mom in that house and he not flexing. Stop it. That would be funny, though. That would be funny. Alright, shout out to Revolt. Revolt, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Don't forget the Revolt music conference is tomorrow. We'll be broadcasting live from Miami. Well, actually,ali, you will definitely.

I'm about to head there now.

Congratulations. The Revolt is a great, I mean, listen, I like, the Revolt Music Conference is a good event for up-and-coming artists, okay, but for established radio personalities, you know, who have a tendency to get into altercations with people, I have no business being there.
