Oh, that's nice.
And then you always have a holiday weekend after that.
Yes, absolutely. Vacation starts. Yesterday, I guess nice. And then you always have a holiday weekend after that. Yes, absolutely.
Vacation starts.
Yesterday, I guess, I don't know what happened in the studio,
but before you guys got here, all the chairs were missing.
Boxes and things were thrown everywhere.
But they were actually taping Love & Hip Hop here last night.
They couldn't put stuff back?
They should have put stuff back.
I made them.
They took a picture of my wall.
All that stuff from the back wall was taken down.
My stuff was all moved. They took a picture and then they put it back up.
They told me about it.
Who is on Love & Hip Hop?
DJ Self.
Oh, DJ Self still doing Love & Hip Hop?
Yeah, yeah.
And then one of our producers, he said there was stuff spilled all over in his room.
There was Hennessy.
There was food.
There was drinks.
Sounds like Love & Hip Hop to me.
Is Self finally going to start really being DJ Self or he's still going to be rolling
with that whack-ass creep squad? He's still going to be rolling with that whack-ass Creep Squad?
He's still going to be rolling with that whack-ass Creep Squad and ruining his brain.
Last night, he wasn't with the Creep Squad.
He was, I seen him with, Pat Poose was here last night.
Okay, that's good company.
And a rapper, Jacque.
I don't know Jacque.
Isn't he on Cash Money?
No, the other one.
The other one from New York.
Oh, that one.
That's Jacquees.
And Jacque is somebody different.
Okay, Jacque.
I don't know Jacque.
I call him Jacque.
I was at a dinner last night with my daughter
because the party was on Sunday.
Sunday's not her birthday.
Yesterday was her birthday.
So yesterday she just wanted to go to dinner
to this restaurant she liked.
But the restaurant was closed.
So we had to make arrangements somewhere else.
And that's always interesting.
Because she's nine now.
And she wanted to get dressed up, her and my niece.
And just looking at her like, damn, nine years goes by fast.
Absolutely.
Lord have mercy.
In nine more years, you'll be 18.
That's right.
What kind of food does she like?
That's her favorite restaurant.
She's actually picky.
She just wanted to go to this restaurant she liked because they got real good french fries.
But, yeah, that's all she wanted.
I'm like, in nine more years, you'll be 18.
They get older fast.
They grow so fast, man.
And in nine years, I'll be mid-40s, late-40s.
Yeah.
Got to really, really enjoy it, man.
I try to enjoy my kids each and every day.
You got to.
They get so big so fast.
I'm telling you, before you know it, they're gone.
Before you know it, they're 21 years old.
Before you know it, they got grandkids in them.
You right.
You are absolutely right.
You got to really enjoy them.
Enjoy the moment.
That's all I kept thinking yesterday.
Enjoy the moment because that's exactly what they are.
Moments that go by so fast.
Absolutely. Enjoy them.
Yesterday I was out in your town in Brooklyn.
Oh, you were in Brooklyn?
Oh, that's why you said you were going to Woodlands.
Yeah, I went to Woodlands, which is a restaurant in Brooklyn. I had a great
amazing time. I told you, I go there.
It's really fun. Very trendy. The music
was popping. It was really great. Weren't you DJing?
I DJed. So is that why the music was popping?
Well, yeah. That was the reason why.
There you go. Just say that. I ate first and then I just enjoyed
it. It was just a dope restaurant.
Upstairs, downstairs. It was dope. Somebody
proposed last night. To you?
Not to me. To his girlfriend.
It was a dope event. I had a good time last
night, man. Look at that. See, you gotta come to
Brooklyn more often. You're right. It's the traffic.
Drop on the clues bombs for Irv Gotti, too.
Tails on BET had the
internet lit last night.
Just like I knew it would. Started a great
conversation, a great discussion.
Okay?
I still want to have a conversation about that this morning if we got time, actually.
I didn't even see it last night.
I wasn't home.
All right.
Well, front page news, what are we talking about?
We are going to talk about the three cops in Chicago that are related to the fatal shooting of Laquan McDonald, what happened to them.
And we'll talk about bail.
Imagine being in jail and not knowing that your bail was only $1.
You could have been out.
That's a damn shame.
That's your dumb ass.
All right, we'll get into that when we come back.
Here's Migos, Bad and Bougie.
And Vince Staples will be here this morning.
All right, it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
If you can't be bad and bougie, be fine and frugal.
It's DJ, Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God,
we are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get into some front page news.
Now with some great news, it looks like Phil Jackson and the Knicks will part ways on Wednesday.
What does that mean?
That means I think things will get a lot better.
Man, shut up.
Y'all say that every time y'all bring in a new GM or new something.
Like, the Knicks are trash, bro.
Phil Jackson was trash, too.
The Knicks are trash, bro. But Phil Jackson was trash, too. The Knicks are trash.
And listen, all Phil Jackson did was come and put more trash
on top of the garbage pile that's been sitting there
that nobody came to pick up for the longest.
But now we got to start taking the trash.
You can't take the trash.
You just take a little off the top,
and then we got to fix things.
And y'all been trying to fix things for years.
So what?
Like, literally years.
The Knicks are trash, bro.
That's okay.
We're going to get better.
And you know what?
The Knicks are going to continue to be trash as long as the Knicks can make money when they are trash.
That's the problem with the Knicks.
The fact that that garden is packed even when they're trash.
If you're making money off a product, you don't really care if that product popping or not.
That's the problem.
Well, Cleveland always wasn't great.
The Warriors weren't always great.
Oh, yeah.
So, yeah.
Draft for LeBron James.
Get a Steph Curry.
Get a Kevin Durant. Get a Draymond Green. Get a Klay Thompson. And you guys will be fine, Envy. Oh, yeah. So, yeah, draft for LeBron James, get a Steph Curry, get a Kevin Durant,
get a Draymond Green, get a Klay Thompson, and you guys will be fine, Envy.
Talk some negative.
Get you a Kyrie Irving.
Y'all guys will be fine.
Don't worry.
Those players come around every day.
You never know what happens.
This new kid from France might be the new Kyrie Irving.
I read some report that Carmelo wants to go to Cleveland.
Is that true?
I don't know.
I'm sure Carmelo wants to go somewhere.
I'm sure he wants to get out of New York.
I'm sure Carmelo wants to go anywhere but New York City. wants to get out of New York. I'm sure Carmelo wants to go anywhere but New York
City. Lala, could you please take
the brother on vacation this summer?
He deserves it. My goodness. Now let's talk about these
three officers. Yes, three
Chicago Police Department officers have been
indicted on conspiracy, obstruction
and misconduct. That's all over the
shooting of Laquan McDonald
in 2014.
Now just to refresh you guys of this case,
they gave all kinds of false reports, false information.
They didn't correct any false information,
and they didn't locate and interview three witnesses to the shooting.
Those accounts had contradicted their false reports.
Now, dash cam video footage did show that Laquan McDonald was shot
while he was running away from officers,
and he was only 17 years old.
He was shot 16 times by Officer Jason Van Dyke.
Van Dyke is now awaiting trial.
But there's three officers who conspired immediately
after the shooting to conceal the true facts of what happened,
so they have been indicted.
Well, here's the thing.
It should have never been a cover-up to begin with
because we saw it on video.
We saw exactly what happened.
Like, you can't manipulate what we actually saw.
You shot the man 16 times for nothing.
Well, yeah, he was shot in 2014,
but the dash cam video wasn't released
until November 2015.
Mm, wow.
Now, quickly, tell us about the dude that was in jail.
He didn't know his bail was over a dollar.
Yeah, he's from Queens,
and apparently he got arrested for stealing from Zara.
He stole a coat from a store, and he injured a police officer
and had some burglary tools as well.
That's what he was charged with.
But he was sitting in Rikers Island not knowing that his $50,000 bill
was reduced to $1, and actually his legal aid lawyers
were making appearances in court without him,
and he just didn't know that his bill was a dollar.
So he sat in there for six months not knowing he could have been out. That man had a boyfriend. He knew what he was doing. He didn't want to leave. He didn't know that his bail was a dollar. So he sat in there for six months, not knowing he could have been out.
That man had a boyfriend.
He knew what he was doing.
He didn't want to leave.
He didn't want to leave.
He's suing the Legal Aid Society lawyers.
He's suing the commissioner.
He's suing Rikers Island for unlawful incarceration and restraint of liberty.
The only reason he got out was somebody he didn't even know
who worked in the jail paid his $1 bail.
Why?
You can't blame that on nobody else, though.
Shouldn't you be held accountable for getting on your bail?
His lawyer's never told him.
He should get paperwork every time his lawyer went to court.
That's it.
That's it.
Check your mail.
He wasn't checking his mail.
I don't know how this could have possibly happened, but, you know.
He wasn't paying attention.
He having too much fun in there.
Oh, my goodness.
Putting Kool-Aid on his lips, probably.
Kool-Aid.
They just were, according to him, very indifferent about what happened.
Okay.
All right.
All right. Well, that's front page very indifferent about what happened. Okay. All right. All right.

When I was a little young girl, I was acting up in school.
But yesterday, my nieces got the ass-whooping of a lifetime.
I'm glad I was not acting up that bad.
What happened?
Who beat their ass?
My brother beat his daughter's ass.
With what?
Oh, my goodness.
His hand, a belt?
A belt.
No, a belt.
He gave him that work.
How old was she?
How old is she, I should say?
His oldest is 16, and the youngest one is 12.
Now, how old are you?
I'm 25.
And you ain't never got a good beating?
You ain't never had to go pick your own switch?
No, not like that.
Why did he beat him?
When I was acting up,
because they were sneaking around.
Yeah, that's right.
You got to beat them now
before they start sucking deep.
Yeah, and the 12-year-old
got a whooping
because she lied for her sister.
There you go.
The cover-up.
That's right.
I used to get beatings
like every day.
You see, my dad used to every day.
I wasn't that bad, though.
Listen, when I was acting up, my mom choked me the fuck up, and that's all it took.
I didn't keep trying her.
You got to do that.
My niece kept trying her dad.
You got to do that as a daddy because you never know what these little girls is doing,
sneaking around with these little boys with the ashy penises.
Next thing you know, you're raising little ashy grandbabies.
The worst part is when you get a beating because your brother or your sister did something wrong.
You didn't even do anything, but you get a beating because they got a beating.
I was an only child.
That used to happen to me all the time.
I didn't have to worry about that.

Good morning.
From North Carolina, bro.

You mad or you blessed this morning?
I mean, of course I'm blessed, but I'm mad at the same time.
Yesterday I was at work, had a conversation with this lady while she was older lady
she was carrying
the bags in
so I you know
put my lawn equipment
down went over
there helped
the carry bags
to her door
and we had
about a five minute
conversation
of how you know
she had so many
young people around her
but nobody ever
does it for her
and we you know
listening to the radio
and what not
I get you know
getting money is important
but we done lost
all principal
as far as young g's
and people that
call themselves thugs and gangsters.
Like, back in y'all day, people coming up
if you a gangster, you know, you still do for
your community. That's key. You know,
having respect for older people, turning
music down, helping out old ladies with their bag. That's
key. And nowadays, man, ain't nobody
even instilling that, like, at all.
Nah, that's real, man. My grandma would always tell me
manners will take you where money won't, man.
So you right. I see it more often.
Like, I've helped a lot of old people at the airport when they're trying to get their bags up in the upper,
to put their bag up top.
I helped them a lot.
But I see people helping a lot.
You old.
That's good.
You old.
That's the point.
He ain't talking about us.
He's talking about the younger generation.
Yeah, I'm just saying, like, it's so focused on money.
And I just want, if nothing else, I just want to say this.
Money will take you a lot of places, but it won't keep you there.
That wisdom, them principles, man, you got to have that to stay there.
Got to stand on them.
Manners will take you where money won't, man.
Hey, this is Bree.
Yeah, this is Bree.
Bree from South Carolina.
Why you mad, mama?
All right, so I got these kids.
I started, like, an after-school program with these kids. It's free out of a community center in South Carolina. And basically all the kids are black. They all started making good grades, started going to honors classes, started making honor roll, right? So we had somebody fund them a whole field trip. And ever since then, it's like the people who own the center don't want us to have a bus. They don't want to help us with snacks. They basically don't want to help us with nothing. And they gave us this money since 2016. I've graduated college since then, everything. And they still don't want to help us with snacks. They basically don't want to help us with nothing. And they gave us this money since 2016.
I've graduated college since then, everything.
And they still don't want to give us a bus to go.
So now we just have money sitting there waiting for no reason.
So who we need to put on blast, baby?
Who we need to put on blast in the great South Carolina?
Talk to me.
A place to put them on blast is there in Rock Hill.
And they know this.
We just trying to get the money.
Like, it has nothing to do with them. We just want our kids to go see great know this. We just trying to get the money. Like, it has nothing to do with them.
We just want our kids to go see great black people.
We're trying to go to RG Dance Center.
Getting the money, man. You gotta tell me who it is,
baby, so your Uncle Charlotte can put them on blast
and tell them come up off that bread.
Nah, I'm not gonna blast them, because they done helped us out
with some stuff during the year.
But they know they wrong. We gonna get the money regardless.
They don't know they wrong.
Because you won't tell nobody who they are.
That means we gotta buy our own buses. That's how we gonna do it. She won't to get the money regardless. They don't know they're wrong. Because you won't tell nobody who they are. Well, that means we got to buy our own buses. That's how we're going to do it.
She won't mention the money later on. She said she's going to make
it happen no matter what. Tell them why you mad.
Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
You mad? You need to
vent, call us. You feel blessed, call us.
Now, you even got rumors on the way? Yes. Let's
talk about Joe Button. What happened
with that interview with the Migos? He
explains and will tell you all of the details.
Also, Lamar Odom was on Wendy Williams.
Find out what he had to talk about when it comes to Khloe Kardashian and the rest of the Kardashians.
All right.
All that and more.
Keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Listen up.
It's just in.
All the gossip.
Gossip.
The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report.
Gossip.
Gossip.
With Angela Yee.
It's the Rumor Report.
The Breakfast Club.
Well, this clip from Everyday Struggle has gone viral of Joe Button and DJ Academics
interviewing or attempting to interview the Migos.
A lot of memes from it.
What actually happened behind the scenes that made this interview so awkward?
Here's what Joe Button had to say about the initial handshake with Quavo.
My only question was, why do we want to talk to Migos?
I understand that they're huge stars at the moment, but I've never seen a good Migos interview.
Migos sits down.
I've never met these gentlemen.
I go to shake their hand.
How you guys doing?
Go to shake Quavo's hand.
I leave my hand there. He's just sitting there. He's ignoring the hand. There's a lot? Go to shake Quavo's hand. I leave my hand there.
He's just ignoring the hand.
There's a lot going on.
He might have just not seen it.
So I'm leaving the hand there.
I'm leaving the hand there.
I'm leaving the hand there.
I'm leaving the hand there.
I'm leaving the hand there.
Nothing happened.
And they sit down and say, all right, I'm a demistyle.
Yeah, I heard none of them shook his hand.
But that's good.
They had that same energy.
You always got to have that same energy when you approach somebody that you don't deal with.
Right.
All right. Well, then after that, he details what happened prior to this quote unquote interview.
He said he ran into P from Quality Control.
Salute to P from Quality Control.
I talked to him this week.
He ran into P at the mall.
And here's what Joe Button said happened.
So that's fine.
So the dry interview was going on.
And now P, the gentleman that I just saw this morning and had a conversation with, decides to interrupt the interview and say, yo, me and Joe talked this morning. All that little Yachty is dead. Well, we did talk this morning. That wasn't your energy. I don't want to talk about Yachty. That's fine. So now it seems like y'all have just positioned Migos so y'all could have this gentleman interrupt and say that we won't talk about Yachty anymore. Okay, that's fine.
We'll edit him right on out of there.
But that, in combination with seeing him that morning, in combination with these a**es sitting
here giving us their ass to kiss, nah, I'm cool, dog.
Let's be clear.
Joe is lame.
And Joe my guy, but Joe is lame for editing P interrupting the interview out.
I don't agree with editing interviews simply because you didn't come off in the best light.
All those interviews you've ever seen from the Breakfast Club where an artist got tight with me interviews simply because you didn't come off in the best light. All those interviews
you've ever seen
from the Breakfast Club
where an artist got tight
with me from Beanie Siegel
to Fred Roestar,
I could have edited,
but I would never do that
because it's whack.
Bird, man,
you can't say what you want
about people,
and then when people
flex on you,
you edit it out.
Let me finish.
So now let's get to
the end of the interview
where Joe Button felt like
things had to be done.
End.
Let's get these
f***ing arrogant n****s to f*** out our seats
so we can talk to some people who actually want to be spoken to.
All right, dawg.
Wrap it up.
Arrogant asses.
Let's get to it.
Speak about everything.
I can give two f***s about Migos.
See, this is my thing.
What?
Joe Button.
Joe's my guy, but why didn't you have that energy
when Migos was sitting right there?
Why you didn't tell them they were arrogant,
and why you didn't tell them get the F out when they were sitting there?
I want that same energy when the artist is sitting in your face.
And I think it's very lame that you edited P from Quality Control out.
P interrupted the interview.
Was the whole interview out already?
Yes, it is out.
And P interrupted it, and he just told y'all he edited it out.
P interrupted the interview, and P told him'all he edited it out. P interrupted the interview
and P told him
to stop talking about Lil Yachty
and Joe agreed
that he would stop
talking about Lil Yachty.
I'm like, why edit that out?
Oh, he didn't say
all that just now.
Yes, he did.
He just said it.
He just said he edited it out.
Well, listen,
I thought that
what he was saying
was that he figured
that you're going to
interrupt the interview.
I'm going to just edit
that part out
so we can continue
with the interview.
Yeah, that's what he just said.
Right, yeah.
I didn't see the full thing.
No, we have other rumors to get to.
Oh, well, I just think it's very whack
to edit somebody, you know,
whether they checking you,
whether they getting at you.
You can't say what you want about people
and then edit them out of the interview.
That's lame, Joe.
I was wondering where's complex and security.
Like, if they're doing an interview, nobody should be able to jump in the middle of the interview and say anything. They ain't making that kind of the interview. That's lame, Joe. I was wondering where's complex and security. Like, if they're doing an interview, nobody should
be able to jump in the middle of the interview and say anything.
They ain't making that kind of money yet.
Alright, now, let's talk about
Prodigy from Mobb Deep.
They are going to be having a
funeral for him tomorrow in New York
City, and that is
going to be open to the public, so if you want to pay your
respects from 2 to 5, you
are able to go ahead and do that. So that's going to be in New York City at Frank E. Campbell,
which is popularly known as the Funeral Chapel, if you want to say your final goodbyes.
All right. And Lamar Odom made it to the Wendy Williams show. It's actually going to be airing
today. And he talked about his past with addiction and he talked about Khloe Kardashian and how
he had a great relationship with Rob Kardashian,
but hasn't really spoken to him.
Here is what people got as an exclusive clip
from The Wendy Williams Show.
Look, if she came back into your life right now...
No.
And I say that with no offense to her.
That would be the best for both of us.
Uh-huh.
You know what I'm saying?
Yes. Keep our distance. You know what I'm saying? Yes.
Keep our distance.
You've lost Rob.
You said you miss him.
Where?
I mean, we were close.
When's the last time you talked to him on the telephone?
It's been a minute.
I guess it's maybe because I hurt his sister too much.
I don't know.
I have no idea.
Rob is like, he got this.
Rob don't want nothing to do with you now that you're not part of the family no more.
That's how it goes, right?
We was cool when you was brother-in-law, but you ain't brother-in-law no more.
They should still be cool.
They should still speak.
They seem like they were really tight with each other every day.
Hey, man, my sister don't like you.
I can't like you.
Sorry, Lamar.
Me and her got the same last name, not you.
All right?
I mean, he did a lot of things that hurt the family and hurt her, so.
Plus, when I was trying to lose.
And himself.
Plus, when I was trying to lose weight, Lamar, you wouldn't share none of that crack with me.
Alright? I'm Angela Yee and that's your
rumor report. Morning everybody
it's DJ Envy, Angela
Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are The Breakfast Club.
I'm in a great mood, man. Me too, man. This week has been a
great week. My birthday tomorrow, my daughter's
birthday was yesterday, vacation coming up.
God is great, man. Yeah, God
is absolutely positive. God is everything.
I was going to tell you something on the side. I'm getting old, man.
Duh. Yesterday, I was looking for money
all over the house. I'm searching. Why were you
looking for money? No, I put money.
I hid money. And you couldn't remember where you put it?
I couldn't remember where I put it. And now I'm starting to
blame people. I'm like, maybe it was the guy
that does this. Maybe it was this person.
Maybe it was that person. I'm starting to think around
and I'm depressed now because I thought I lost the money.
You were depressed? Yeah, I was. It was a lot of bread. I'm pissed off. I get in the person. I'm still thinking around, and I'm depressed now because I thought I lost the money. You were depressed?
Yeah, I was.
It was a lot of bread.
I'm pissed off.
I get in the car.
I start driving to Brooklyn.
I realize the money's in my pocket.
Oh, if I would have known, I would have told my people some Brooklyn.
You know what?
Let's get in some front page news.
Now, in some great news, it looks like Phil Jackson is up out of here. It looks like he will be leaving the New York Knicks,
and I'm so excited about this.
I'm happy for Phil Jackson, man, because the Knicks was killing him, all right?
Phil Jackson is a little up in age, and being a GM of the Knicks is just taking years off your life.
He was killing the Knicks.
All right?
How about that?
I want Mello to leave the Knicks because the Knicks is killing Mello.
You know what I'm saying?
Chris Saps is young, so it ain't really affect him yet.
But, you know, God bless all those brothers who are leaving New York right now. You add years to your
life when you leave the Knicks. No. Now let's talk
about these three officers, Yee. Yes,
three Chicago Police Department officers
have been indicted. That's on conspiracy,
obstruction, and misconduct.
This is all for the shooting and killing of
Laquan McDonald, who was only
17 years old. He was shot 16 times
by Officer Jason Van Dyke.
By the way, Jason Van Dyke is being charged
with six counts of first-degree murder,
official misconduct, and 16 counts of
aggravated battery. He's awaiting trial right now.
But these three other officers conspired
immediately after the shooting to
conceal the true facts of the events
surrounding the killing of Laquan McDonald.
They did not report
the correct information. They failed
to locate and interview three witnesses to the
shooting and those accounts of those
three witnesses did contradict their
false reports. Wow.
Yeah. Now let's talk
about some dumb news and I feel bad because this guy
is from Queens, right? Yes. He spent
six months in jail because he didn't know his
bail was $1.
Yes, he actually got arrested for
stealing a coat from Zara and he was in jail. His bail was $50, Yes, he actually got arrested for stealing a coat from Zara, and
he was in jail. His bail was $50,000.
He had a
Legal Aid Society lawyer, and apparently
they never told him that the judge a few days
after that lowered his bail to
$1. Nobody from Rikers
told him. He had no idea. They said
his lawyers were going to court without him
and making appearances and just not reporting back
to him that his bill got reduced.
So he was basically sitting there for six months for no reason.
I don't see why he is blaming anybody but himself.
Like, who else is supposed to know about your bail other than you?
You get the paperwork every time you go to court.
Check your damn mail.
Check your mail, young brother.
I don't know if they didn't give him his paperwork or what happened.
He didn't ask?
Man, that man had a boyfriend in there.
He didn't want to leave.
If your bail is a dollar and you're just
sitting there, you want to be there.
Apparently the lawyers were going to court
on his behalf and they just never told him
that his bail got lowered. Even if he
had a boyfriend, he still would want to
I need to know what kind of life
he's leading outside
of jail because he might not have had no place to go.
Jail might have been a nice little recreational
spot for him. Three meals a day, a place to sleep,
a little boyfriend, put a little Kool-Aid on your lips.
Well, he's doing now,
so I don't know if he had that great of a time.
Put a little Kool-Aid on your lips,
put a Coke can in the shower.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I mean?
You know what that Coke can in the shower mean, right?
Oh, my goodness.
Okay?
Geesh.
All right, well, that's front page news.
Now, when we come back,
we're going to kick it with Vince Staples.
The young god Vince Staples.
He's got a new album out called Big Fish Theory.
I like Vince Staples a lot.
The reason I like Vince Staples is Vince Staples, he don't bite his tongue.
Not at all.
And every time I'm around him, he seems to have that same energy about any and everything.
All the time.
And he's a guy that stands by his words.
And I like people that stand by their words because a lot of people are not standing by their words nowadays.
Right. He's on the Def Jam. We're going to kick it with him when because a lot of people are not standing by their words nowadays. Right.
He signed to Def Jam.
We're going to kick it with him when we come back.
Here's Pharrell.
It's Fronton.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have a special guest in the building.
Goes by the name of Vince Staples.
Signed to Def Jam from Compton.
Vince Staples.
How you been, man?
You good?
We good.
We tried to get him some water, but we ain't had no bottle water.
We getting there right now.
Yeah, we're getting there.
Don't put him on blast.
It's all good.
We're the breakfast club
with no breakfast
and no nothing.
No nothing.
You got a juice, though.
You doing good right now
in the morning?
I know you here to promote
the album Big Fish Theory,
but I've been wanting to ask you
what you think of Tupac's
All Eyes On Me movie.
I've been thinking,
I said,
I wonder what Vince Staples thinks.
It was all right.
I didn't really expect much,
to be honest.
All the movies is trash.
I feel like it's kind of low-key, too, so ain't he not alive? I. It was alright. I didn't really expect much to be honest. All the movies is trash. I feel like it's kind of
low-key too,
so ain't he not alive?
I thought that was trash.
I thought Notorious
was trash.
When you look at like
Ray and Ali
and movies like that,
I think that's when
people get done justice.
You gotta be there
or like even like
straight out of the car,
if you gotta be there,
you gotta be there
for like at least
34 years.
What made it so trash?
What made it trash? What made you trash?
It's just like the acting was trash, except for old boy that looked like Tupac.
Yeah, he was hard, but like you got Meno popping Tupac, it's just extra.
I was supposed to really rock with it.
And when they did the music video parts, they didn't even sync the lyrics.
Like y'all could have found a better take to where he looked like he actually sang.
Is it true that they put Snoop Dogg's voice in?
Yeah, they voice over the character.
They for sure voiced over Snoop like couldn't have a voice.
It was sad.
I feel bad for old boy that played him.
Like, I can talk too, you know what I mean?
Just make it work.
You didn't like straight out of Condon either?
I did, but that's what I'm saying.
They was like involved.
Everybody was involved.
But then they made Eazy-E look like a weirdo.
And it's like, you know, when you're not there,
it's a little bit harder to have creative control
because they're going to make it what's best for the movie
and not really what's best for the legacy.
I read when I was a kid that before Ray Charles had passed,
he had a big part in what they was doing with that movie.
Jamie Foxx had a lot of conversations with him.
It's a lot more respect for the person.
I feel like when they're there, it's from the talent themselves.
Even if it's not the director,
it's just certain stuff you won't do
if you done sat and met and spent time with somebody.
Or if you have an autobiography
that you've written and it's based on...
But the Frankie Lyman movie was hard.
That was hard.
Why do fools fall in love?
Yeah, that slapped.
But that also was more based on his relationship
with different women.
It took kind of that aspect
of his three different marriages,
and that was kind of...
It was focused on something. That was hard. That movie different marriages. And that was kind of, it was focused on something.
That was hard.
That was hard.
And he was faded the whole time.
I didn't know anything about Frankie Lyman,
but I can appreciate certain movies like Walk the Line
or if you watch like the Doors movie.
Even if I don't know.
I'm racist.
You believe me?
I ain't watching that.
I ain't watching that.
I don't want him.
I ain't really trying to see the white man story no more.
I'm cool on that.
I like the five hypebeast even though that's not a real
classic. It's still a classic movie.
Big Fish Theory. You said you are peering
into the fishbowl that is rap's ecosystem.
Explain that, sir. I said that?
That's what you said.
I be saying some bullshit.
Did he say that or was that what somebody said?
I never said no ecosystem.
Maybe I came to my own conclusion.
I think that was a review of the album.
Hey, look, that's hard.
We're going to act like we said that.
So we're going to cut that.
We're going to cut all this out and we're going to pretend I said that.
I mean, that's what I take from it.
Like, you're looking at rap as a fishbowl.
I mean, nah, kind of a little bit, but not really.
That's definitely from Esquire magazine.
That's from Esquire magazine.
Yeah, that's what's up. They're covering, you know, the s*** now. I appreciate it. But, definitely from Esquire magazine. For sure. Esquire magazine. Yeah, that's what's up.
They're covering, you know,
this now.
I appreciate it.
But, you know,
this is crazy.
What I will say,
I mean, yeah,
it's a lot to do.
It's a lot to do.
A lot of things,
but, you know,
the way I make my music
is like,
it is whatever you want it to be
if you listen to it.
You know what I mean?
I think that's kind of the point
of listening to the music.
I know we pass that stage
right now in music,
but it's just listen to it.
You know,
if you like it, you like it. If you don't, you don't.
But I put a lot of thought into it, and, you know,
I try my best to just create something new.
And, you know, I would say innovative, for lack of better words,
every time I want to do something new every time.
All right, we got Vince Staples in the building, of course,
from Compton, West Coast artist.
Now, Charlamagne.
The sound is different, though.
Like, some of the production on it sound like boom, boom, beats.
It's like house, up-tempo music.
But it's got conscious lyrics.
I mean, but yeah, it's, you know, it's, if you think about it, a lot of people know,
like, that's kind of where West Coast music, you know, started.
Like, all that stuff came from.
Like, I was talking about all this gang s***, some real gang s***.
It was pop-locking and ticking and doing, you know, doing sconte packs and, like, wearing
white gloves and s***. So, thatanty packs and, like, wearing white gloves and shit.
So that's, like, some real, like, West Coast.
See, in the past, they still got Larry Levin, you know,
acting shit and all them dudes from Detroit and Chicago
who has kind of invented techno music and house music,
as we know today, but they don't get no credit, you know.
We got to kick the black people out every once in a while
once they make something.
So it just kind of drew a lot of inspiration from that.
So you're coming back to your roots in a sense, though.
I mean, it's to a point, like, to be real,
when I was a kid, I told you this last time,
my mama wasn't letting me listen to rap music.
I was like, oh, you had her f***ed up.
Ain't none of that coming on.
So when it come down to it,
like, that's when I was just trying to make something new
and trying to kind of branch off of what I know about,
and I, low-key, know the most about that, and that's the kind of music I like. Like, that's what I listen to, and I low-key know the most about that,
and that's the kind of music I like.
Like, that's what I listen to, so I just wanted to make it,
you know, my version of it, try to, you know, see if I could fit.
I can't be, I don't want to be listening, like,
when this is talking about.
What do you hate hearing this talk about?
It's funny, like, I be getting the most random messages
from the most square, like,
hey, bro, you need to get back to that gangsta shit.
Like, if you
don't shut your bitch ass up like what is you what does that even mean you know what i'm saying
they want you to talk about busting them guns man hey you ain't killing on this album man i'm not
fucking with it it's like i'll be over that bro just because that's it's so draining man absolutely
day-to-day so it's people that's not about that life hitting you nobody's about that life for the
most part that's pushing that but it seems like the whole industry is pushing's people that's not about that life hitting you up. Nobody's about that life for the most part.
That's pushing that.
But it seems like the whole industry is pushing that because that's what's selling.
It's really not though.
Yeah, exactly.
And it's black trauma.
Drake's selling.
Yeah, Kendrick Lamar's selling.
J. Cole's selling.
Chad's selling.
Big Sean's selling.
The majority of the kids are not listening to that.
That's not true.
That's not true.
You don't know Chance the Rapper because of your...
Chance the Rapper, besides that, you have a lot of these kids that are talking about drugs all the time.
And it's the songs that when I go out and play, that's what they want me to play.
That's because you're in the club every night, so that's your worldview.
I mean, but it's...
These dudes is on tour every day.
These dudes is on the radio every day.
But no, but it's different.
It's different. You write and everybody write the same aspect because on the radio. But no, but it's different. It's different.
You write and everybody writes the same aspect because at the end of the day, yeah, if you
talking about like just with the kids, well, that's awesome.
Like internet culture type stuff, that's really where it is.
But it's hard for them to get in real venues and sell out real venues.
Like to be honest, like I don't sell no records, like none at all.
But I sell out every show that you do.
1,500 to 3,000 seats, which is weird to me.
But it's like, it's real.
But some people can't do that,
but they can do something that I can't do also.
You know what I mean?
Which is be in the club every night.
I mean...
Get a record plate in the script club.
Yeah, maybe, but I don't really know.
But it's like, everybody got a different,
you know, purpose in it.
So at the end of the day,
I'm just happy to be able to do something with myself,
you know what I mean, and just make music
because I'm in a position where I can low-key do whatever I want.
I can do whatever I want if I do it right
because it's about people listen to my music.
If you don't like it, you don't like it.
You know what I mean?
That's all fine, but you listen to it because of the time or the effort
or whatever I'm putting.
So I don't know why I listen to it, but there is a lot of years.
I'm going to do what I can.
That's right.
We have more with Vince Staples when we come back.
We got to talk about his sister being shot a couple of times and also him being suspended
from school for wearing a Young Jeezy t-shirt.
All right.
But right now, let's get into a joint office album.
This is called Big Fish and it's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Good morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Now we have Vince Staples in the building. He has a new album called Big Fishe, Charlamagne Tha Guy, we are The Breakfast Club. Now we have Vince Staples
in the building.
He has a new album
called Big Fish Theory.
Charlamagne?
You said on the album too,
I forgot what song it was,
you said you'll never let
a little Bow Wow you.
That's a Jeezy bar.
I love Young Jeezy.
So we got to ask
a conversation.
I had a Kanban
and a Snowman t-shirt.
They were suspending
that in high school.
Absolutely.
I remember CNN
did a whole thing about it.
I took my time.
You got suspended
for wearing a Kanban and a Snowman t-shirt? My mama made for high school. Miss took my time. You got offended for wearing a camp bandage.
My mama made for high school.
Ms. Brown suspended me.
Not Ms. Brown.
I forgot that bitch's name.
But yeah, she suspended me.
They knew what it was when you walked in?
Crazy.
We used to be on her head.
She was like, whoopie go, bro.
I hate that bitch.
She got fired.
She kicked all the homies out of school.
Everybody put us all on.
We was all in juvenile probation.
We had to go to juvenile placement, live with random people.
She was trash, fool.
I hope that lady's life is trash right now.
I hope she's living in an RV or something.
She was a piece of s***.
She f***ed my whole childhood up.
I got two weeks suspension,
and they put me on camera.
Two weeks for a t-shirt?
Swear to God.
They couldn't say, hey.
That's how you know Jeezy was hot.
That's top five Atlanta s*** right there.
So why'd you use his line?
Because I love young Jeezy.
I didn't know if you,
because Jeezy a bow-wow. I know you got a love for bow-wow, too. Yeah, bow-wow was hard. I'm tired of s*** right there. So why'd you use his line? Because I love Young Jeezy. I didn't know if you, because Jeezy or Bow Wow.
I know you got a love for Bow Wow too.
Yeah, Bow Wow was hard.
I'm tired of s***
acting like Lil Bow Wow wasn't hard.
Like, what?
He had Pharrell beats
and Timbaland beats
and T.I. and Snoop Dogg
was helping J.D. and J.Z.
was helping writing the songs.
How is that s*** not hard?
S*** is like being aggressive
for no reason.
But Bow Wow was hard,
but there's no way in hell
you can possibly like Shad Moss.
30-year-old Shad Moss who does things like post fake private jets.
Now, this is what I'm going to say.
I don't really know that nigga like that.
You don't know Shad Moss?
Nah, I don't know him like that.
You don't know Shad like that?
You don't know Bow Wow?
You don't know Shad?
I know Lil Bow Wow with the Tim Couch jersey on with the Photoshop dog on the album cover.
I know that nigga's cold.
You know how I can respect that?
Because that's how I feel about Fresh Prince and Will Smith.
Come on, man.
Fresh Prince was a hard-ass rapper.
Will Smith was trash.
But Will Smith was a man in black.
You got to calm that down.
That was hard.
No, acting Will Smith was dope.
But rapping Will Smith, Miami, and getting jiggy with it, trash.
Getting jiggy with it is hard.
You wilder.
You never rock and jiggy with it.
Never rock and jiggy with it.
You wasn't six years old when you heard that song.
That's why you don't respect it.
That shit was hard.
That wasn't for you, bro.
It wasn't for you. When you was six, that. That shit was hard. That wasn't for you, bro. It wasn't for you.
When you was six, that was your shit?
Man, it wasn't for you.
The Wild Wild West theme song, hard with the Burger King tour.
Come on, man.
You was not a...
With Drew Hill?
But it's different.
You was doing the NJD with it, dancing and everything.
You was a grown-ass man, bro.
So was Will Smith.
Charlamagne, you was a grown-ass...
No, that's what I'm saying, but you know what I mean?
I like those records.
Right.
You know what I mean?
If your kids want to watch Blue's Clues or The Wiggles,
you ain't got to rock with it.
It's not fun.
You're supposed to pass it along, bro.
You got to pass that wheel along.
Will Smith got slaps, bro.
I don't know.
Fresh Prince was hard, though.
He ain't no like, I don't know, man.
Get Jiggy with it, my love.
The flow is better than Fresh Prince.
What?
Summertime?
Nightmare on my street?
Summertime is hard, but that's Rock K.
Mike Tyson?
That's Rock K.
I'm going to beat Mike Tyson?
Nah, get Jiggy with it flow way harder than the Mike Tyson kid.
That wasn't Rock Kim.
Who did it?
It wasn't.
What was Nasro?
Nasro won in the way.
It wasn't Rock Kim.
I asked about that.
It wasn't Rock Kim.
2 Chainz said that, so I was listening to 2 Chainz.
We got Vince Staples in the building, of course, from Compton, West Coast artist.
Now you?
It looks like you're looking forward also to having kids, because you referenced that.
I don't really f*** with little kids.
They bad.
What?
But you talk about
your future baby moms.
But that's different.
That's about her.
You feel me?
You know what I mean?
The kid,
that's her business.
That's what I'm saying.
You're going to get
somebody pregnant
and just leave.
Nah, I'm going to be
at the house.
Leave me alone.
I'm not trying to talk
to you right now.
I'm going to talk to your
mama about the homework.
The bills paid.
My granddaddy didn't
talk to none of his kids.
My mama said,
this s*** came home
and was like,
what y'all need?
All right, I'm in the back.
Don't ask me no questions.
You can do that, man.
You got to raise your kids.
That's raising when they need their ass beef.
I'm not going to be sitting there playing Pokemon or something.
My nephew, eight years old, he be bad as a ****.
I'm not dealing with it.
I'm going to go to jail.
You would feel different, though.
Well, you got to be in his life, so you got to be in bed.
Yeah, I am, but then they be lying.
These **** be lying.
They got cell phones on.
I'm not prepared for this type of stuff.
When I was a kid, you had a phone like a chirp.
A next to a chirp.
I-730, I-95 with snake on it.
That's all you had.
These niggas got Instagrams and shit on the hood.
I'm cool on that.
These niggas bad.
I'm going to catch a case.
My nephew came to my house.
The homie, the homie was taking care of my mom
while I was on the road or whatever.
I drive my mom around and shit.
So he asked the homie, he's like, what's up, JC?
How you been?
He's like, better than you?

Cuz said he doing better than you.
You a grown ass man.
And he doing better than you.
That's foul.
You just can't punch kids
in the face now.

That's why I'm saying
it's not my time right now.
You can punch them
in the chest, though.
When they like seven, eight.
Little light punches
to the chest, rear blows. You go to
jail. What your older brothers and
cousins used to do to you? Thank you, baby.
Your uncles and everybody, all the older

know says something to the wrong dude Oh dude shot her a lot of times you know
that she did how many times she got hit?
Like more than,
I think like it was like between like three to like six.
Damn.
You should put her on an album.
Let her spit a verse.
She,
you know,
not one of my sisters
gonna say some bulls**t.
You just not trying to hear that.
That's gonna sound like
Spice One.
She gonna be on there.
She said Spice One.
She's gonna sound like
Spice One or Gospel.
There's no in between.
It's one another.
Y'all f**k with this because you got such a rich hip-hop history, man.
When I look back on it, and I see how the homies is raising their kids,
and I see how hard it is for my homies.
I got their whole head and their whole face tattooed with a hood everywhere, blah, blah.
And to see they struggle to try to keep their kids from knowing about that.
And I got big homies like Chris and big homies like It Web and Albo.
And, like, s*** that literally is with the business. Like, little boy niggas
that's with the business, but they got the
best kids in the world. What kind
of s*** would I be to make their job harder?
That's real. When I don't got to. That's real.
Because you don't have to. And that's just how
they perceive you. Look at YG. YG
one of the most successful, most important,
most authentic rappers from the West Coast.
But no matter what he rap about,
no matter what he say,
he's still going to be the gangbanger.
Music doesn't sound the same.
Instead of praising him,
he's literally making the same music
for over 10 years.
Before anybody knew who he was,
when he was in high school,
him and Mustard and Project
and Tay F3rd
and the P.E. Boys and Cold Flames,
he's been making the same kind of music forever.
Instead of praising the fact
that they had a vision
and stuck through it,
they the gangbangers.
Word up.
You got to count your blessings
and be appreciative of your position
and try to do something better.
Like, you want to spend
your whole life being a piece of s***?
I don't want to.
F*** that street s***.
I'm with you.
Now, listen, before you leave,
we need a 16th.
You know what I mean?
I got an A-bar.
I got an A-bar for Char got an A-bar for Charlotte.
Y'all got to put on the Breakfast Club intro.
All right.
I'm not rapping.
You know, I'm not rapping.
There you have it.
I said, really?
There you have it.
Vince Staples, Big Sister, out right now.
Get it?
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Oh, no.
Morning, everybody.
It's the Breakfast Club.
You know what?
My son is grounded, right?
I grounded my son, right?
And I just happened to look at Snapchat, and he posted something on Snapchat.
But I hit his phone.
Well, clearly he got another phone that you don't know about.
Clearly he either found it or...
He must be grounded.
He might have used somebody else's phone and logged into his account.
Or maybe he has an iPad or something.
Ah, okay.
What's he grounded for?
You know what?
You know when you get to that age,
you talk back to your mama,
so your daddy got to go ground him?
So he talked back to his mommy,
so I grounded him.
So no phone, no basketball, no football.
Yeah.
No, none of that.
That was a great segue out of bad and bougie then
because my family wasn't that bougie.
When I used to talk back to my mama,
my daddy would go upside my damn head,
grounding, grounding my ass. I think it's funny how En mama, my daddy would go upside my damn head, grounding.
I think it's funny how Envy just was
looking at his phone
and he goes,
hey, what the?
Extension cord,
make you take a bath
afterwards,
slap you upside the face,
grounded.
You ground your son
because he talked
to your wife crazy?
You better learn
to put some hands
on your boy.
That is abuse, sir.
I don't know if you know that.
I hate this generation.
God damn,
people hate this generation
so much.
That is abuse.
Jesus Christ. Also, if your son this generation so much. That is abusive.
Jesus Christ. Also, if your son responds to being grounded.
Yeah, well, he didn't respond, so now he might have to get all that other stuff.
You can't beat your child, but the white man can, though.
Okay, we'll see how this plays out.
Let's get to the rumors.
Let's talk Lala.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
So listen up.
Well, Lala was on Wendy Williams, and she talked about whether or not she is planning to get divorced.
Here's what she had to say.
Not right now.
I'm not.
You know, marriages are tough, and you know that.
We all know that.
It's filled with ups and downs, and we're just going through a time right now.
But him and I are the best of friends, and our number one commitment is to our son.
I don't know what the future holds.
It was just her birthday three days ago, too.
Yes, it was.
And he had posted her.
He said, I look at you on this birthday, and it's hard to believe another year has passed.
You are as beautiful now as ever before.
Sending birthday wishes to my earth.
At Lala, love you.
Happy belated born day to my cancer sister, Lala.
I love Lala.
And let me tell you something.
Lala is not playing fair. You something. Lala is not playing fair.
You know why Lala is not playing fair?
Because she's out here working out.
You know, she's glowing up.
She just elevated to another level at just the right time.
You ever notice that?
That's what you're supposed to do.
Yeah, a girl's been done wrong, and then they just start looking extra good.
That's what you're supposed to do.
That's when you don't let yourself go.
And by the way, on episode four of this new season of Power,
Lala will again have a sex scene, and you will get to see more of Lala.
We're about to see Lala's ta-tas again?
Yes, episode four.
By the way, salute to Mello for liking every picture.
Mello doing what he's supposed to do, too.
Mello liking every picture, posting up pictures of her for the birthday.
Mello doing drop on the clues bombs for Mello.
Trying to get back.
Hey, man.
I'm real.
Hey, I want the Anthonys to be together.
Damn it.
And they really do mean that,
that saying you don't know what you got till it's gone.
It's not how it used to be.
And that's when you really realize.
Oh, he's fighting.
That's what you could potentially lose.
And sometimes that's what it takes.
We all need that.
We all need that scare sometimes.
Sometimes women just got to put the fear of God in us
and we realize there ain't nothing else out there.
In the meantime, Carmelo is pitching a political reality show.
It will be a weekly half-hour show of Carmelo Anthony
discussing issues with other celebrities who are civic-minded
and they're going to go to meetings and rallies and so on and so forth.
So that's part of his plan.
They said that he has pitched this show so far to HBO and other cable networks.
I feel like that's a Colin Kaepernick type of vehicle.
But I wouldn't.
Well, Carmelo does a lot.
Yeah, Carmelo definitely does a lot.
Salute to Carmelo.
So drop on a Clues Bomb for Carmelo again.
I love the fact he's playing defense.
That's what all them liking pictures is of La La and posting pictures of La La.
He's playing defense against other Negroes.
As he should.
Absolutely.
As he should.
You talk about Carmelo don't play no defense.
Right.
He's playing defense now. He's playing defense now. Damn it. Melo don't play no defense. Right. He playing defense now.
He playing defense now, damn it.
All I know is...
Now I was going to say, I kept seeing this headline about
Lala exchanging phone numbers.
That's a lie. See? Here come a woman
putting salt on the wound.
That's a lie. I ain't see
that headline nowhere. Melo, we ain't see that
nowhere. I'll show you. Alright.
Now let's discuss Rihanna.
It looks like she has a new boo for sure because they were in the pool making out.
There's a whole bunch of pictures.
By the way, she looks so happy.
Who's this guy?
It looks incredible.
People are trying to figure it out.
Now, from the research that I've been doing, it seems like his name is Hassan Jamil.
Sounds rich.
He's a Toyota heir.
His family's worth $1.5 billion.
I knew it.
If you're kissing Rihanna, it's a billion dollar kiss.
What are you trying to say?
What?
Why can't she just kiss somebody that's not worth?
Do you see Rihanna kissing a regular person?
If I was Rihanna, I ain't kissing nobody unless they're worth more than a billion.
See?
She can kiss somebody just because she feels like it.
Ain't nobody got time for that when I'm Rihanna.
All right.
Well, anyway.
I'm with you.
I'm with y'all.
It looks like they're having a great time together.
He was spotted previously with Naomi Campbell, but it looks like that's over with.
And perhaps that's him.
There were other people that people are throwing in the mix because we don't know for sure who it is.
You can see pictures of the two of, that was the guy with, yeah, there they are.
They're cool together if you ever vote TV.
I'm Rihanna and I'm going to kiss toads.
What am I going to kiss toads for when I can just go ahead and kiss the prince?
I ain't got to kiss the toad and turn him into a prince.
She has enough money that she needs.
I kissed the prince first.
She don't need to worry about somebody else's money.
And then when you got that kind of money, you start at princes and better.
All right, and Chris Brown.
You got a castle?
What about that fight with the Migos?
Here's what Offset had to say about Chris Brown.
Ain't no beef.
Ain't no smoke.
They don't want no smoke.
We at the top, man.
I don't know what's going on with nobody.
I just know we winning. All right, so he said basically there want no smoke. We at the top, man. I don't know what's going on with nobody. I just know we winning.
All right, so he said basically there's no beef.
You don't want no smoke.
All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your Rumor Reports.
All right, thank you, Ms. Yee.
Chalamet!
Yes.
Who you giving that donkey to?
Oh, man, I need my young brother, Kodak Black, to come to the front of the congregation.
I'd like to have a word with him, man.
Oh, boy.
All right, you sure you want to have a word with him, not me?
Just a teachable moment. Okay. All right, we'll get into that next. When we come back, keep it locked, man. Oh, boy. All right. You sure you want to have a word with him, not me? Just a teachable moment.
Okay.
All right, we'll get into that next.
When we come back, keep it locked.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkeys of the Day, I'm Charlamagne.
I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed play.
So like a donkey.
He hung.
Donkey of the Day.
The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but donkey of the day is a new one.
Yes, donkey of the day for Wednesday, June 28th goes to the young Kodak Black.
Let the record show.
I enjoy Kodak Black's music.
People like to say young Kodak is a mumble rapper.
I don't agree.
I think he actually be snapping, but that's just my opinion.
But the reason Kodak Black is getting donkier
today is because earlier this week,
Kodak Black told social media
what kind of woman he prefers. Let's
hear it.
Now, when I heard that,
I knew it wouldn't go over well,
but I did understand what he meant.
He was trying to say
he don't like dark-skinned girls,
but instead he said black girls.
See, when you say dark-skinned girls,
you're talking complexion.
That's a preference.
When you're talking black girls,
you're talking a whole race.
That's also a preference,
but if it's one entity
you don't want no drama with
in this era,
it's black women.
You don't want those problems.
You don't know what true slander is on social media until you piss off a group of black women and then they
swarm like the wu-tang killer bees on your black ass are you dumb now when kodak black got attacked
he didn't apologize in fact he doubled down on double downed on the comments which i don't mind
by the way because if you said it you said it okay if it needs some clarification cool if you feel
like you need to explain it more cool but if that if that's what you said, then own it.
And that's exactly what Kodak Black did when he
went back on social media to address
all the backlash he was receiving. Let's hear it.
You ain't gonna be dissing me under my
comments. I ain't
gonna play no comment
on my s***.
You talking about
black women.
Bitch, f*** you.
You know what I'm saying?
I only like red bones.
I love black African-Americans, but I don't like black bitches.
I like yellow hoes.
So that's my preference.
So mother f*** you.
He is crazy, man.
Why could I black sound like lawn equipment?
You ever been in the house?
You know, you be in the house and you could tell people working on the lawn?
I...
Now, first and foremost,
all the black women I know
and talk to on a daily basis
don't give a damn
if Kodak Black
is checking for them or not.
Black women will be A-OK
without Kodak Black
desiring their love.
But just because black women
don't want you
doesn't mean they won't
get on social media
and slander the hell
out of you, okay?
And you don't want that. The only way to escape the slander of black
women is to mute the words ashy,
problematic, and trash.
If that don't work, then the only other option
is to delete all your social media
accounts. But that would be lame, right? Well, that's
exactly what Kodak Black did yesterday, and that's why
he's getting donkier today, because like I've been saying
all morning in reference to various topics,
stand on your words.
I'm so sick of people not having the same energy at all times.
How you go from this?
Yo, for one, you have to see me when you come to the window, so you better have the same energy.
You better have that same energy.
How you go from sounding like this, right?
Play the clip again.
You ain't going to be dissing me under my comment.
Man, I ain't going to leave no comment on my shit.
Whatever, you talking about black women.
Bitch.
F*** you.
All right.
I like red bones.
I love black African-Americans.
But I don't like black bitches.
I like yellow hoes.
So that's my preference.
So mother f*** you.
You're not a lawnmower.
He's a lawnmower over here.
Hit the head just Kodak Black.
Now, Kodak Black got on Twitter
and said, I'm just on some whole other
right now. Ain't got nothing to do with y'all.
Then he tweeted, I could take criticism.
I honestly don't give a F about the whole
black, red, Chinese thing.
N-word just in the situation.
Hashtag SG. I don't know what that means.
So I'm deactivating. Look, I don't have a problem with a person apologizing if they offend,
as long as it's sincere, which most of the time they aren't.
They're just trying to stop the backlash.
I don't have a problem with a person doubling down on their rhetoric either
because I love when people have the same energy.
You can be honest and wrong, but what I don't respect is when people run.
Kodak, you ran.
Okay, get on social media and take this L from black women, alright?
I didn't delete my account when I pissed black
women off. French Montana didn't delete his
account when he pissed black women off, so you
can't delete yours either, alright?
Please give young Kodak Black the biggest hee-haw.
Goodness gracious.
Alright, well thank you
for that dog here today. Up next, ask

The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's Ask Yee Time, 800-585-1051.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, how you doing?
My name's Morgan.
Hey, Morgan.
What's your question for Yee, bro?
So, I've been married for a long time, almost 23 years.
And, like, in 2010, my wife had an affair with a friend of mine and destroyed me.
And then a couple years later after that, I went out and I had an affair with somebody.
And I, you know, I never intended for what happened to happen, but I kind of fell in love with the other woman.
And she was kind of crazy.
She did what she did to make money, however it is.
And that's kind of how I met her.
What do you mean she did what she did to make money?
I don't want to blow up her spot, you know, but she, you know, she was working.
She was a car girl or something?
Something like that.
So we met.
We kind of clicked from the first time we met, and then we started hanging out.
And the next thing you know, we were spending a lot of time together.
She was hanging out with me at work and whatever,
and it turned into almost daily things.
And then for almost the next four years,
we were going out and seeing each other on the side.
Okay.
And I kind of fell in love with her,
and she wanted me to leave my wife.
She stopped doing what she was doing for a long time,
and I couldn't leave my wife.
I have kids, and I love love my wife but there was something
wrong you know for a while but i tried to stay and do the right thing and uh and cheating on
your wife is not doing the right thing just so you know no i know that that's why i stopped seeing her
i even tried to stay with my family and started to do the right thing. I know I did the wrong thing all along. Believe me.
You know, but I got to the point where I realized that I really fall in love with this girl.
And, you know, she made me happy.
We clicked like nobody ever I ever did before.
And she stopped seeing me because I wouldn't leave my wife for her, you know.
And we stopped seeing each other.
Now it's been over a year since I've seen her.
And you can't stop thinking about her, but you love your wife?
I love my wife.
I don't want to hurt her.
She's been my best friend and my partner.
But there are some issues that have gone on in my relationship with my wife that I wish more than anything that we could fix that.
And, you know, but there's some things that just aren't fixable, you know?
Well, I think, all right, so let's start with the fact that she cheated on you, had an affair.
You clearly have still not forgiven her for that.
And you felt like going and having an affair yourself would help give you more, I guess, peace of mind for staying.
Yeah, that's how it started.
Okay, but then you actually ended up really liking somebody else.
And you didn't have the same issues with this woman that you had with your wife.
You're cheating with this woman.
She's a side chick.
Y'all just have fun together,
and you guys don't have a history of things that you have to deal with.
That's true.
Okay, so the real issue is that you never actually fix things with your wife.
You say that you love her.
You don't want to leave her.
You don't want to leave your family,
but there's a lot of things that y'all still have never, ever resolved.
Does she know that you had an affair?
She does.
And so I'm sure that she feels a way about that.
And it seems like you guys probably don't trust each other.
Well, that's for sure.
So that, I mean, listen, probably part of the reason why you love this other woman is because she's an escape from the reality of your life with your wife.
Well, that's definitely how it started.
Right.
And it probably still is that because I'm sure
with you and your wife,
you guys don't get along
like you used to.
You argue all the time.
You don't trust each other.
Your relationship is broken
and you guys haven't
worked on fixing that.
You can't just move on
day after day after day
and just try to mask
something that never,
ever got fixed.
You just put a band-aid on it
but it's never healed.
Right, and we've tried to heal. We've beenaid on it, but it's never healed. Right. We've tried to heal.
We've been working on it, but there's
some things that she's unwilling
to do, and she's now set up what she says
is, you know, I set up boundaries.
And, you know, her boundaries
interfere with our closeness.
Alright, well, have you guys gone to seek professional help?
We've both seen therapists separately
and tried to do some
marriage counseling, but that didn't work out.
Now she refuses to go to marriage counseling with me.
Okay, I will say this because I know a lot of people have been in a situation where they've had affairs, they've stayed together,
and it does take a long time for that forgiveness process to start.
But if you guys don't forgive each other, you'll never be able to move on.
And if you don't start to establish trust, which takes a really long time and a lot of patience, you won't be able to move on either.
No, I totally understand that.
And I did forgive her for her affair.
Not until, you know, about two years ago.
But I did forgive her because I was carrying around a lot of anger.
And that prevented me from, you know, healing.
Well, this is, unfortunately, this is going to to be a much longer conversation for us to have,
but why don't I just give you my email address so we can talk more about it online.
But it does seem like this is something that could take potentially years to fix,
and if you have the patience for that, then you guys have to try to really stick it out.
But you can't keep blaming each other for things.
You can't keep bringing up the past in order to move on to the future.
Yeah.
All right. Ask Yee. 805-85-1051 if you got a question for ye call her now it's the breakfast club good morning good morning everybody it's dj nv angela ye charlamagne the guy we are the
breakfast club it's time for ask ye hello who's this hi my name is jessica jessica what's your
question for you so my question is is, I'm married. Congrats.
We haven't even been married a year yet. We have two kids, two beautiful children. But I just find
myself not being happy at all in this marriage. Right now, you know, we're currently living with
his mom because we can't afford New York rent right now, just for right now.
And, you know, I've tried to talk to him about it, tell him things that I've needed, you know,
and I just, I don't get nowhere.
We kind of just retract.
And I just, I don't know what to do anymore.
I want to leave.
But, like, right now my only current other option is a shelter with my two children.
I've told him that.
He's told me numerous times, if you leave, I'm taking the kids away from you.
You're not going to put them in that situation.
And I don't want it to be like, I'm staying in this marriage because of my kids.
I feel like that's the wrong reason,
but I just don't know what else to do.
Why did, Jessica,
why did you guys get married in the first place?
Because it hasn't even been a year yet.
I've asked him about it.
We wanted to get married.
Was it the right thing to do?
Yes, insurance-wise and things like that.
So it wasn't because you were in love?
That's the thing.
I couldn't even tell you that.
For me, I wanted to be because we were in love.
On his part, I'm not so sure.
Okay, but you were in love.
You love him.
That's why you got married.
Now, this whole time that you guys have been married,
were you living with his mom the whole time?
No, we were staying somewhere else with my family.
And then once, like towards the end of my pregnancy, my second child, we moved in with his mom's house.
Now, Jessica, I'm going to keep it real with you.
With this situation that you guys have been in. Sounds extremely stressful and not even with your relationship with each other.
But the fact that you guys haven't even had your own space to be your own family without having to deal with his mom, with your family.
And that's stressful for any relationship.
And I think that I have a couple of friends.
One of my best friends, when she first got married, her husband's mother was living with them.
And that puts such a strain on the relationship.
And it wasn't until she moved out that they were able to actually have a happier time together.
And even most recently, one of my friends, her and her husband, were having a tough time because they were living in a really small apartment with their children.
They had dogs and everything.
But they ended up getting a place with more space.
And it actually helped save their relationship because sometimes when you're on top of each other and you have other people involved and interfering with your relationship
that's what really kind of harms it all of that stress so you guys haven't even had a chance to
develop the right relationship with each other because there's just too much involved too many
outside factors and i think the main thing that you guys need to do would you agree that it's a
living with his mom and having lived with your family? Yeah. Yeah. I think the main thing you guys need to decide is how can we figure out as
a family for us to get, I'm sure financially is stressful for you guys as well, which is the
number one reason that couples break up is finances. So you guys need to figure out what
can we do to get ourselves in a better position so that we can buy whatever date it is. Cause I
love to give myself something to look forward to,
we have to have our own place in four months.
And you guys have to work towards that goal
because the only way that this can possibly work
is if you guys figure out how you can move out
from under somebody else's roof
and operate as a functional family and love each other.
It hasn't even been a year yet,
and y'all haven't even had any alone time.
Yes, of course.
So the main thing now is figure out how can we get out of his mom's house
and work on our relationship without it being up underneath other people.
Okay.
All right.
Thank you so much.
Good luck.
Thank you.
All right.
ASCII 805-851051.
Now, you got rumors on the way?
Yes, let's talk about Bill Cosby.
Yet another trial is coming up.
We'll tell you about that.
And we'll talk about the Fast and the Furious franchise.
Find out who might be leaving for the next installments.
All right, we'll get into that when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report. Rumor Report.
This is The Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Well, Halle Berry recently did an interview with Teen Vogue,
and she was looking back on winning the Best Actress Oscar back in 2002.
She was the first woman of color to win that award,
and she had dedicated that award to every nameless, faceless woman of color
that now has a chance because this door tonight has been open.
But it's been, what, 15 years and still no other woman of color has taken home that statue.
Now, she said that despite all of that, she said she now thinks, wow, that moment really
meant nothing.
It meant nothing.
I thought it meant something, but I think it meant nothing.
She said she felt profoundly hurt and saddened that no other woman has won that, no other
black woman since then in 2002.
All right, so that is Halle Berry in Teen Vogue.
Now let's talk about the BET Awards.
The ratings were actually down this year, down 19%.
Apparently they're saying during that time the BET Awards had, what is it, 3.47 rating.
So that means it was 5.8 million viewers
across the nine different networks that it was on.
Oh, okay, so BET had a 3.4
and then the other couple million came from other networks.
No, the BET Awards.
Oh, you mean how many did BET have?
Yeah, BET had 3.something million and then all, okay.
Because it was on everything.
It was on MTV2, MTV.
And all the Viacom networks.
Yeah, so not so great.
Down 19%. But Power
also had premiered that same
night. Season 4 premiered. So actually
Power did pretty well.
During that time. It was the second most watched
show on Premiere Cable.
Plus people watch TV in so many
different ways now. Like they probably were watching
BET Awards on their laptops and all kind of
other kind of technology that I'm too old
It was number one
on Twitter, though.
It was long.
It's that same length
every year, isn't it?
Right?
All right, Michelle Rodriguez
from the Fast and the Furious
said that she may not be back
for the next part
of the franchise.
She said,
F8 is out digitally today.
I hope they decide
to show some love to the women of the franchise on the next one, or I just might have to say goodbye to a the franchise. She said F8 is out digitally today. I hope they decide to show some love to the women of the franchise
on the next one or I just might have
to say goodbye to a loved franchise.
That's what she wrote. That's Letty in the movie, right?
On her Instagram. She plays Letty in the movie,
right? Yeah. I don't think she's going anywhere.
I've never seen a Fast and Furious in my life.
Me neither, but people love it and it makes a lot
of money. Yes, it does. I don't think she's going anywhere.
She said it's been a good ride and I'm grateful for the opportunity
the fans and studio have provided over the years.
So we don't know exactly what she is saying is lacking as far as women in the franchise.
I bet y'all know one person who never walked away from the Fast and Furious franchise.
But they did have significantly smaller parts compared to their male co-stars, like, you know, The Rock, Jason Statham, and Tyrese Gibson.
So, you know, maybe she's like,
yo, let's give the women a little something.
I mean, she ain't no Tyrese, though.
You don't even watch it. You don't even know what she does, do you?
Yeah, you've never seen any of them.
Drop one of Clues Bomb for Tyrese, damn it.
We're not even talking about Michelle Rodriguez.
That's our guy, though.
You know, she was just talking about the women getting love, and what do you do?
Show the man love.
That doesn't make any sense. Alright, you know, it's an ongoing theme with Halle Berry talking about the women getting love and what do you do? Show the man love. That doesn't make any sense.
It's an ongoing theme
with Halle Berry talking about black women
and the Oscars and she's the only black woman to
ever win Best Actress.
Bill Cosby in the meantime
Bill Cosby in the meantime is
due back in court. Now this time
it's in California for allegedly molesting
a 15 yearyear-old
at the Playboy Mansion more than 40 years ago.
So after that mistrial that happened June 17th,
which according to prosecutors,
they're going to be seeking a retrial for that case,
he now has this case that he has to appear in court for as well.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
Thank you, Ms. Yee.
Now, Revolt, we'll see you guys tomorrow.
Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next.
Let me know what you want to hear.
At DJ Envy on that gram.
Had enough of this country?
Ever dreamt about starting your own?
I planted the flag.
This is mine.
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.

I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.
Executive produced by
Questlove, The Story Pirates, and

Bash, bam, another one gone.
The crack of the bat and another one gone.
The tip of the cap is another one gone.
Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history.
Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama
who refused to give up her seat on the city bus
nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.
Check it. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.
