Starting point is 00:00:00 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.

Starting point is 00:01:56 Breakfast Club, bitches. Good morning, USA! Yo, yo. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, DJ Envy. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Monday. Yes, it's Monday. Back to the work week. Yes, indeed. And we're still quarantined.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Yes, we are. Hopefully you guys had a great weekend. I had a good weekend. The weather was nice on this side. It was like, I think, 75 on Saturday, 75 on Sunday. And today is supposed to be another beautiful day. So I really enjoyed it. Hell, yeah, they had a good weekend. All these anti-social distances was out and about.
Starting point is 00:02:54 They was in the parks. They was at the beaches. They was just out living their life like it's golden. Living their life with corona. Living their life with corona. It wasn't letting a little virus stop a good time this weekend. It was out. Yeah, it was out.
Starting point is 00:03:07 This weekend was, you know, I was supposed to be in Jamaica this weekend for my KC Crew retreat. So, of course, we couldn't be here because of Corona. So we actually had a party at the office and we kind of did a whole Jamaican set
Starting point is 00:03:19 and we rocked like two, three hours on Saturday. It was great, man. So shout out to everybody that came through. We just played vibes and just had a good time, man. Really, really great night.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Had a great night. Yeah, I saw you had DJ Nori over there DJing. Yeah, Nori was there. Everybody else was there. Did you check Nori's temperature? Yeah, no, we didn't check Nori's temperature. Did you check Nori's temperature? No, I didn't check Nori's temperature,
Starting point is 00:03:42 but he's been quarantined, and everybody else was just my assistant who's been with me regardless, and me and the wife, and that was pretty much it. So it was only four of us. It wasn't like it was a group of people. It was four of us, and we just rocked out. So it was a good time, really, really good time. Nice.
Starting point is 00:03:57 That's what's happening. I went to Saturday morning because it was finally nice. I got up at like 7 in the morning, and I went to the park to go for a little jog. Just because I wanted to go early before it got even more crowded. And then when I was coming back home later on that day, it was so many people outside in Brooklyn. You would have thought that nothing was going on.
Starting point is 00:04:18 I was like, goodness. There was people everywhere. Like crowded around. You don't care. They throwing caution to the wind. You know what I mean? Like, listen, don't be the first person to cross the hill, okay? Wait and see what happens.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Can you wait a couple of weeks? Just let everybody else go out and see what happens first before y'all just jump back out there. Is it that serious? Because you really was doing nothing. The majority of people did have on masks, but I think people just wanted to go outside, but it was just a lot. I was like, all right, I'm going to just stay in the house after that.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Yeah, I think, especially in New York, New Jersey, I think they lost control because people were just out and about. I mean, it didn't matter. They let people out. I've seen people wearing masks. I've seen people not wearing masks. People were at the parks. I was like, people are out. They're like, F this.
Starting point is 00:05:01 It's 75 degrees with tide. And they were out. And like you said, Charlamagne, nah, I'm good. I'm going to let y'all be the first to be this. It's 75 degrees. We're tired. And they were out. And like you said, Charlamagne, nah, I'm good. I'm going to let y'all be the first to be outside. I'm still inside. Yeah, not just New York and New Jersey, though. Atlanta was having a good old time. Atlanta was really...
Starting point is 00:05:14 Atlanta was having a ball this weekend. They was really living their life with Corona. Living their life with Corona. Matter of fact, salute to everybody in Atlanta. We're on a new station in Atlanta this morning, right? That's right. 105.3 to beat. 105.3 to beat to everybody in Atlanta. We're on a new station in Atlanta this morning, right? That's right. 105.3 to beat. 105.3 to beat.
Starting point is 00:05:29 That's right. Drop on a clues bomb for the ATL. They put us on a better signal in Atlanta. Yes. So you can actually hear us. Yeah, exactly. I guess we doing all right out here in these streets. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:41 People said the other station, they really couldn't hear us. They said the signal was kind of weak. So we got a bigger and better signal. So 105.3 to beat Atlanta, home of the Breakfast Club and Hip Hop and R&B. Now let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Atlanta, I'm sorry we got to meet like this, you know, under these conditions. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:05:55 I'm sorry this is how it has to begin, but we got to start somewhere, right? Yes, yes, we do. Now what are we doing? Front page news, what are we talking about, Yee? Well, let's talk about some things that were going on over the weekend, some things in Atlanta and in Michigan and in New York City. Alright, we'll get into that. Also, too, man,
Starting point is 00:06:12 we got a special guest this morning, man. If you're a fan of books like The Four Agreements and The Fifth Agreement and The Mastery of Love and The Voice of Knowledge, Don Miguel Ruiz, the author of those books, will be joining us this morning. Alright. Yes. We'll get the show cracking. Front page news when we come back. Don author of those books, will be joining us this morning. All right.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Yes. We'll get the show cracking, Front Page News. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Let's get in some Front Page News. Where are we starting, Yee? Well, let's start off with talking about these loans, the Paycheck Protection Program that businesses got. And right now they are opening an investigation into companies that applied for emergency loans under that program. And so what they're going to do is check out the paperwork that has been filed and make sure they investigate these small business owners who have applied and received those funds. They should definitely take it as a cause of concern if they have applied for that. And again, this is for companies with fewer than 500 employees. And these are forgivable loans that cover two months of payroll and other expenses. If the uncertainty of economic conditions as of the date of the application makes necessary,
Starting point is 00:07:22 the loan request to support the ongoing operations of the recipient. So some businesses have already returned these loans. More than 20 public companies like Hallmark and Ruth Chris and so forth have said they were returning those loans as well. I'm surprised they didn't fill out that paperwork to get that money. A company as big as Hallmark and like the Lakers. And I'm just really, really surprised they filled out that paperwork. Yeah, I don't understand the logic. If you have under 500 employees, you can, but it's supposed to be for companies that need it, not just because you can't apply. All right. Now, the governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, has slammed the stay-at-home order protesters. These protesters have been going outside with Confederate flags, with nooses and other racist signs that were not representative of who we are today.
Starting point is 00:08:05 And so she said that it was the worst racism in awful parts of U.S. history that some of these protesters were displaying. These are the same people who Donald Trump said that she should negotiate with them. He had said in a tweet, the governor of Michigan should give a little and put out the fire. These are very good people, but they are angry. They want their lives back safely. See them, talk to them, make a deal. Trump's not going to piss off his base.
Starting point is 00:08:29 He knows where his bread is buttered at, God damn it. He knows where his white bread is buttered, okay, with those kind of white people. That governor's in the running for vice president too, by the way. All right, now in Texas, movie theaters are set to reopen
Starting point is 00:08:42 with airport security style check in. So the company does plan to open theaters on today and patrons will be required to go through an airport security style check in. They'll enter through a roped off area and be asked if anyone in their household has exhibited flu like symptoms within the past 14 days. Then they'll also implement temperature screenings. And if you have a temperature higher than 100.4 degrees they will not let you in and Atlanta crowds gathered yeah like what are the movies out like what are the movies that would make you get up and go
Starting point is 00:09:13 you sitting in the house you're like I can't wait to go catch that corona for this movie like what movies came out I can't think of none Atlanta crowds have gathered to buy those Air Jordans they wanted to get those Jordan 5s that was crazy
Starting point is 00:09:28 I saw those videos at Greenbrier Mall people were lined up trying to get them I would never understand that I would never understand it it's like they release the same sneaker every year or every other year and it's still commotion and pandemonium behind them like do y'all run through y'all pair of sneakers that fast in 365 days
Starting point is 00:09:48 or every couple years? When is every couple years, Envy? It's every couple years. Like, certain sneakers is every four years or every five years, but these are the classics, especially since the last dance is on. It makes people want the sneakers even more. But is it worth? I'm surprised they even released it.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Like, that's surprising. Maybe I would have released it just online, but to release it in a store where you know people are going to go to, like, that's crazy for the store. Everybody just got their $1,200 check a couple weeks ago, too. Why not? I'm opening up, baby. I just want to know, is it a different?
Starting point is 00:10:16 It's got to be a different Jordan every year, right? Of course. Yeah, it's a different Jordan every year. Yeah, no, it's a different Jordan every year. It's a different maybe the white and red fives. I know they're doing the grapes coming up in a little bit or the concords come out usually Christmas time. So it's different Jordans, but every couple of years they do a re-release.
Starting point is 00:10:31 I got some fives upstairs. Right now. Okay. I don't know when I bought them, but I got them. And in Missouri, they're saying people will be allowed to go to concerts as of next week. They're going to start live events again. What?
Starting point is 00:10:43 Well, yeah, actually as early as today. What do you mean live events? Like concerts? Yeah. Oh, they don't give a f about people now. Now, shh. It's time for y'all to come on. The jig is up. Time to tell y'all this was all a hoax. It's time for them to just go ahead and reveal to us that this
Starting point is 00:11:00 was all a hoax because y'all just acting like two weeks ago everybody was dying. The sky was falling chicken little and now everything is just, hey, okay, guys, we're going to get concerts back in Missouri. That's where all the artists are going to go.
Starting point is 00:11:10 They're going to be doing shows in Missouri in the next six months. That is crazy. All right, guys. All right. Well, that is your front page news. Now, I just want to tell you,
Starting point is 00:11:20 remember on Friday, I think it was Thursday or Friday and I said, it's strange how they gave all the people at the barbershop them summonses and at that funeral in Brooklyn, there was 2,500 people and nothing happened. No summons, no nothing. It was all good. They treat us differently when they talk about the social distancing.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Like I've been watching the news all weekend long and to see them officers rough them dudes up for allegedly social distancing. But then I look at the park and them parks are crowded, people on top of each other. Like, there's a difference the way they treat us. That's what I was saying on Thursday. I will say, though, that the video that I saw circulating yesterday, damn, I'm going to pull up the guy's name in a minute,
Starting point is 00:11:56 the officer, he's got a history, though. He's got a history of roughing people up in a real, real way. So I can't let that, I mean, listen, we know the police aren't the best, but we can't let one bad apple really, really spoil the bunch. He really got a history of roughing people up.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Now, I'm not saying that, but I'm just saying the same way you treat white people and other people when they're having their funerals, you got to treat us the same way. Just don't move out the way, just that and the other. I'm seeing them giving out masks to people and being polite and nice. Yeah, that was crazy.
Starting point is 00:12:24 What's the difference? What's the difference with What's the difference? We're people, right? We're all people. They're white. Duh. They're white and wear black. You know that.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Come on, now. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Got his name. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? D-I-E, bro. What's up, brother? Get it off your chest. Hey.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Hey. How you doing, bro? I didn't even know that was Chav. What up, Chav? How are you? And my condolences, Chav, man. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. What's going on, up, Chad? How are you? And my condolences, Chad, man. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Thank you so much. What's going on, Char? How are you? What up, sis? What'd you lose? I don't think I ever took, you know, like the last month and a half. I kind of been, like, battling my grandfather. Went into the hospital about a month and a half ago.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Just randomly, they said that they had to take his leg away. So they had amputated his leg about a month and a half ago, just randomly, they said that they had to take his leg away. So they had to empty his leg about a month and a half ago. And he came home last Friday. We went all up. We did like a social distancing thing for him. Went over there, welcomed him home. And on Tuesday, he went back to the hospital. And on Saturday, he passed away, man.
Starting point is 00:13:41 I'm sorry to hear that, my brother. Oh, Trav, I'm sorry. But he's a man of God, though, man. I'm sorry to hear that, my brother. Aw, Trav, I'm sorry. But he's a man of God, though, man, you know. I'm not as sad as I was I was. I just know he in heaven. He was, like, a bishop
Starting point is 00:13:52 in the Church of God in Christ. And he, like, real, his story is amazing, man. He, like, real life went from, like, the streets of Philadelphia to, like, turn into a bishop, man. So,
Starting point is 00:14:00 only thing that is, like, the worst about it is that he for to be such a people person, um, he passed away by himself, man. And, like, nobody was able to go in there, so. Well, he had to, did he get diagnosed with corona or something, or? He's still doing the autopsy, but they don't know how his leg even, like, got to where it had to be amputated. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:21 It really just literally came out of nowhere. We went in there, we thought he came home on Friday. We thought he was going to be home and then Saturday we got that call. Sorry to hear that, King. You know, call your grandparents. Check on them. Yeah, man. Just call them.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Check on them. I love them. We'll do that, Trav. Alright, take care, hun. Is that what Trav was calling up here for? We just took him down a dark road for no reason. Well, I saw him posting about it this weekend, so I'm sure it's still on his mind. This was just on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Yeah, damn. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Mark calling out of Southern North Carolina. Envy, Solomon, the guy, Angelo Yee, what's going on? What's up, Mark704? What's happening? Yes, sir. Right here.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Your neighbor right there, South Carolina, man. Good morning, y'all. Good morning, definitely. I want to say real quick, Solomay, man, I much respect you. Angelo Yee, lip service, everything y'all got going on. MVI's watching you on your live this weekend. That was dope. Created a dope vibe.
Starting point is 00:15:25 I really like it. But what I wanted to call in specifically about is about the reopening, kind of like what you guys were saying earlier, is if we're really going to flatten this curve, like we've been talking about it the longest time, for us to just open back up. Like we still get like reported new amounts of cases. Like New York, I think, had another reported, I mean,
Starting point is 00:15:46 another record number of deaths and of new cases. Like, it's really going to get worse, of course, before it gets better. But I still think that we could, you know, just like Charlamagne has been saying the whole time, like, wait until the end of May. You know what I'm saying? That will flatten the curve out a lot more before we actually start to go back to life as normal because it's not really going to be life as normal.
Starting point is 00:16:10 I just think that people are so worried about the economy, which can bounce back. We're the most resilient country in the world. Like, we'll be able to bounce back. I just think people are kind of moving a little too soon with it. Yeah, I mean, during the middle of April, the curve started to flatten. And, you know, I think I read something yesterday that it was like there's an uneven curve flattening now. And you read around the world, Australia is flattening their curve.
Starting point is 00:16:33 They say Europe countries are flattening the curve. So it's just like, yo, wait a minute. Now you're starting to get somewhere. Don't just go out there and, you know, reduce a month's work of flattening. How long have you been down? Like a month? Longer? I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:16:45 At least. At least. And then, like, I've been following Dr. Fauci. I listen to you guys every morning, and I've been following Dr. Fauci ever since he's been on you guys' show. And even Dr. Fauci talking about later this, you know, during the fall
Starting point is 00:17:01 that it's going to come back even worse. And I don't know. It's still like an extreme case of uncertainty because I heard you guys were talking about the new six symptoms and all that. And it's just, it's still kind of up in the air to me. I see people taking like really good measures to stop it and everything, but it's still a little funky. I'm just hoping that in due time we'll kill it all.
Starting point is 00:17:26 But then what happens in December, November, October, once it starts getting cold again? Is it going to hit as hard? We don't know. They're acting like they're prepared for it. Last week Time Magazine put out an article with the headline, the U.S. is flattening the curve. Next up is quashing it.
Starting point is 00:17:43 And that's not going well. That was the actual headline. Yeah, the problem is is quashing it. And that's not going well. That was the actual headline. Yeah, the problem is we don't know, and that's the whole thing. I want people to realize that, you know, when you're going out to get that little fresh air, to hang out with your friends, you should just wait a little bit, man. They're still going to be here in a couple of weeks. Let's see what happens first. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:18:00 You're going to be the first. Not if you get them sick and die. Let's get you one of those. And by the way, ain't no such thing as fresh corona air. Okay? If you're around a bunch of people, it's fresh corona air. All right? Find some other way to get some fresh air.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired?
Starting point is 00:18:26 Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy.

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe own country.
Starting point is 00:18:52 My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that? Bullets.
Starting point is 00:19:06 Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
Starting point is 00:20:37 learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

We need to start getting together, man, and unite and fight against this, what we're going through, man. That's all I got to say, man, because I've been through it. I experienced it, too.
Starting point is 00:22:02 So it's sad. It's sad that we can't understand that and unite and get together and counterattack what we're facing right now, you know? And we get the back of it. I don't know if y'all saw that video that happened yesterday. What was that? Uptown New York, Officer Francisco Garcia. Officer Francisco Garcia, you are famous right now for all the wrong reasons.

Starting point is 00:23:29 Now, you, we got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to be talking about Young Money Radio. Lil Wayne and Drake were on together Friday, and we'll give you some highlights. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up.
Starting point is 00:23:46 It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela. Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report.
Starting point is 00:23:51 The Breakfast Club. So R. Kelly is begging to be released from prison. He said he's fat and diabetic and he has high blood pressure. He also says that he's not a flight risk because the airports are completely deserted and that he will not tamper with the witnesses. And according to, you know, the judge, listen, his past behavior shows that that could potentially happen. But R. Kelly is responding, saying that he is unlikely to do that. One of the alleged Jane Doe's until recently was his girlfriend and although completely out of the norm, even though she was a supposed victim, she was regularly allowed to visit him while he was in jail and correspond with him. It appears that during the approximately six months she regularly visited him.
Starting point is 00:24:33 She also corresponded via letters, shared emails and spoke daily on the phone. And he never did a single thing to obstruct justice. Should R. Kelly get a bail? No. I mean, you are innocent until proven guilty, right? And didn't Harvey Weinstein get a bail at one point? Should he get a bail while he's awaiting trial? No, didn't we see the video?
Starting point is 00:24:55 Didn't we see the video of him with a younger girl? Or was that old? Well, yeah, he beat that charge already These are new allegations These are new allegations Should he get a bail? He's offering to wear a monitoring device. He's offering to not have a cell phone and all of those things.
Starting point is 00:25:09 It's too many women that said he's done this and you don't want to put somebody back out there that can do this possibly again, especially in a time like this where people are quarantining and I wouldn't want to see him back out there. No. He's got a very extensive history and I think that's what's causing him to actually not get a bail.
Starting point is 00:25:28 All right. Now, Drake and Lil Wayne, they were on Lil Wayne's Young Money Radio on Apple Music. And Drake talked about a lot of different things, including why he shared those photos of his son, Adonis. It was great to just, you know, share that with the world. And I just felt like it wasn't even anything I talked to anybody about or anything I planned. I just woke up one morning and I was like, you know what, this is just something that I want to do. I want to be able to go places with my son
Starting point is 00:25:54 and share memories with my son. I don't want to feel like just because of a life choice I made to be quote unquote celebrity that I got to make everybody live under this blanket. A certain way, exactly. And, you know, I've watched you be a functioning rap father for years, an incredible father, you know, and that gave me a lot of confidence. All right.
Starting point is 00:26:13 That's a good reference for him to see Lil Wayne openly out with his children all the time, being a good dad. So he wanted to have those experiences and not just feel trapped because you're a celebrity. Now, Lil Wayne also. You should get in front of it, I guess, when you're somebody like Drake. Because, you know, if people had never seen the little boy before, first time he popped out with him, every camera in the world would have been surrounding Drake.
Starting point is 00:26:35 I mean, they're still going to be surrounding him anyway. But, I mean, I guess it's one of the things. He wants to be a dad. He wants to take his kids, you know, take his son wherever he wants to go and not be a surprise. He wants to be a model father. All right. Drake and Lil Wayne also talked about that time they were on the
Starting point is 00:26:47 tour bus and Kobe Bryant came on the bus. Listen to this. And the next thing I know, Kobe Bryant walks on the bus and you were like, yo, and he came to pick up an iPod because at the time that's how we gave the active music was on iPods. Exactly. And yeah, you ran
Starting point is 00:27:04 the album and you played more than one song for sure, but, of course, you played Lollipop. And at that point, I was most in awe of the album because I knew it was about to happen. But, you know, just to be in that moment with you and him and... Unexplainable. Yeah, I mean, it was out of body, man. Pictures Art didn't happen.
Starting point is 00:27:25 That was before social media. That was before you put everything on a camera. I'm sure they got a picture of that somewhere, though. And, you know, last year, Drake talked about having a more strained relationship with Kobe after his day scheming, shooting in the gym line. Right. But he did apologize to them numerous times, he said,
Starting point is 00:27:42 and they did move past it. All right, another thing they discussed was getting back in the studio together. It looks like the two of them are planning to work together soon, so that's you know, Drake said he vows to send Wayne at least two joints by next week, so we'll see what
Starting point is 00:27:58 music he's going to come out of that. Just two? He said by next week. He said at least two by next week. Give them some time. Just two, Drake? Come on, that's the guy who put you on, he put you in the game. I need more, man. He said at least two by next week. Give them some time. Just two, Drake. Come on. That's the guy who put you on. He put you in the game. I need more than two. I want the whole beat pack.
Starting point is 00:28:09 All right? Come on. Two? He said he'll be in the studio all weekend, and by midweek, or maybe even tonight, you'll have at least two joints. There you go. He's going to do two. They're going to do two.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Just don't do no Tucci slide. Okay? I don't want to hit no Tucci slide with you and Wayne, okay? Tucci. What do you call Wayne Tucci? T't do no Tucci slide. Okay. I don't want to hit no Tucci slide with you and Wayne. Okay. Tucci. What do you call Wayne Tucci? Tucci. Tucci. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I don't want to hit no Tucci slide with you and Wayne. Tucci slide would be dope. All right. Vanessa Bryan was honoring her daughter Gigi on her birthday. She did a very touching Instagram tribute. It would have been her 14th birthday. She said, happy 14th birthday to my sweet baby girl, Gianna. Mommy loves you more than I can ever show you. You are part of my soul forever. I miss you so much every day. She said, all of her school pictures. So she asked for people to consider wearing red, capturing an act of kindness,
Starting point is 00:29:05 and then show how you will play Gigi's way since she always gave everything she did her all and led with kindness. Very sad. Very sad. That is something I would never be able to wrap my head around. And you know, honestly, I can wrap my head around it,
Starting point is 00:29:18 but you just don't want to deal with the reality of the situation. The reality of the situation is things like that happen. And that's just what it is. We're all living to die and you don't know when your time is going to come. And it's just sad that that young woman's time came so quickly. All right. Kodak Black is reportedly getting beaten and was beaten by seven guards while in jail. Now it came from the information came from Kodak's Instagram page. His lawyer was notified of the beating and is reaching out for an investigation.
Starting point is 00:29:45 He said, we just heard from fellow inmates at Max Penitentiary, Big Sandy, Kentucky. In regards to Kodak Black Treatment, he couldn't call himself as he is not allowed phone or visitation for six months as punishment for the incident in Miami, even though that has been the case since September. They refused to give him credit for that time.
Starting point is 00:30:03 He goes on to say that they struck him in the head repeatedly with a metal object. Then after one of the guards flicked his genitals and said, you're not so gangster now. You're going to need bigger to survive. We have notified his counsel and he advised he will be asking for a full investigation.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Okay, two things here. Number one, good luck getting justice from cops assaulting Kodak Black in jail, because we can hardly get that for folks out here on the street. And number two, what do you mean flicked his genitals? Took a picture. Huh?
Starting point is 00:30:34 You said what? Took a picture of his genitals? They said you need bigger, I don't know. He took a picture or did he just grab it? When you say flick, I thought you meant like hit it with his finger or something. No, I thought he was like, you know how you grab... That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:30:49 No, that's a grab. A flick is a flick of the wrist. You know what I mean? Stop. You're making me uncomfortable. Stop. Can you see me? I can see you.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I can see you. Stop flicking me. Angelique said he took a picture. What? I said I done flicked me. No, I don't think... No, no. That wasn't no picture.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Angelique didn't take a picture of his genitals. Well, we are trying to figure out what happened. What do you mean flick of the balls? And why? Why was his pants just down? Shut up, man. No, seriously. Why was his balls exposed to where a cop could just flick his balls?
Starting point is 00:31:18 What's going on here in Kentucky, bro? Well, clearly, if they were beating him up pretty badly, I don't know what was happening, but yeah. I guess they flicked him in his genitals. Great. Alright. Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. Alright, when we come back,
Starting point is 00:31:35 we got front page news. What are we talking about? We are going to be talking about what's happening all over the United States, what places are opening back up, what places are protesting. We'll give you some details. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Where we start with Yee? Well, let's start with everything that's been going on over the weekend. You know,
Starting point is 00:32:04 30 states have started easing some social distancing restrictions. That easing goes from simply opening up state parks to allowing certain businesses to even restart. Donald Trump is saying that a coronavirus vaccine could be ready by the end of 2020. Dr. Anthony Fauci had said last month he thought it was within the realm of possibility that millions of vaccines could be ready by January. So we shall see what happens in the meantime. They are getting that remdesivir ready, which will help you if you do get diagnosed with coronavirus to actually make it not last as long. And Donald Trump is continuing to talk about hydroxychloroquine as well. That lets you know that they can come up with these cures
Starting point is 00:32:47 if they want to come up with these cures, you know what I'm saying? But the money is clearly in the treatment, right? But being that this particular disease has tanked the economy so bad, they know they got to get a vaccine out here in these streets to make people feel comfortable to go out there and spend their money. They're talking about a second wave coming, so you want to be prepared by having that ready. And obviously, like Dr. Fauci said when he was on The Breakfast Club,
Starting point is 00:33:08 it takes a while to come up with the vaccine with all the testing that they have to do. Yeah, a while. Not January. A while means a few years. So you think they have the cure and vaccine for diseases like HIV, AIDS, or even some sorts of cancer? I mean, I can't confirm that in any way, shape, or form, but I do know that there's more money in treatments than there is in cures.
Starting point is 00:33:29 And they damn sure have found the so-called vaccine for this one very, very, very fast, which is not the norm. Yet, and like they said before, that's according to if everything goes according to plan, which rarely does it really happen. But clearly this is something that we need to make sure we get under control as best as possible. I'm going to treat that vaccine the same way I treat, you know, going outside.
Starting point is 00:33:53 You first. OK, y'all first. And then we'll see what happens. I don't be getting flu shots like that neither, though. I've never gotten a flu shot. I don't think I've ever gotten one either. Do kids get flu shots, right? Or no?
Starting point is 00:34:05 I mean, they get shots to go back to school. They don't have to get the flu shot, but I've never gotten a flu shot. I don't think I've ever gotten one either. Do kids get flu shots, all right, or no? I mean, they get shots to go back to school. They don't have to get the flu shot, but I've never personally gotten a flu shot. Flu shots are optional. Yeah, now my kids get the flu shots. I give them the flu shots just to be safe. All right. Now, in Missouri, people will be allowed to go to concerts as of today. So we'll see if they really are going to do that.
Starting point is 00:34:21 And they'll have to keep social distancing in mind. So it'll have to be of course the six feet apart from each other and things like that now some venues will not reopen I don't know but some venues are choosing to you know do that I don't know who's gonna do it yet and I don't know if people are gonna want to go out yet so I don't even know if it's worth it I mean you see how many people are outside so there are some people that are gonna be going to want to go out yet. So I don't even know if it's worth it. I mean, you see how many people are outside. So there are some people that are going to be going to some of these concerts. I even seen in South Korea, they were doing like a huge concert. But you got to think these venue halls are losing money, too.
Starting point is 00:34:52 They can't, you know, they're stuck. They can't make money. So I'm sure they're going to try. They're going to put their toe in the water to see how hot it is. They're going to try. South Korea is ahead of the curve on the U.S., though, when it comes to controlling the coronavirus. They kind of got to control on it the U.S. though when it comes to controlling the coronavirus though. They kind of got a control on it pretty quickly.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Right. In Atlanta, they had kind of a fast and furious looking situation. I don't know if you guys saw this video that Big Tigger put up, but there were a lot of people congregating outside to watch some race cars, quads, dirt bikes, all of that do donuts and do some
Starting point is 00:35:23 type of show outside. Now Big Tigger said, good morning and happy Sunday. This is alarming and disappointing on so many levels and we got to do better. Waka Flocka in the meantime posted, why people mad at others for going outside? Shut the F up. So that was his response.
Starting point is 00:35:39 So everybody in Atlanta going out to get some of that fresh Corona air and Flocka, the reason people are upset because those people may go out there, you know, contract the coronavirus and then bring it back to the people that we love or bring it back to the elders in their family or bring it back to people that have underlying conditions. You know, sometimes you have to sacrifice things to look out for the rest of society. And those folks in ATL did not do that going out to get some of that fresh Corona air
Starting point is 00:36:05 this weekend. Alright, and at Club Onyx in Houston, that club was raided after the club opened back up to customers on Friday morning. They're trying to decide, is this a restaurant or a club? The owner is saying that he opened as a restaurant and he's using just the restaurant part of
Starting point is 00:36:22 it, but adult entertainment venues are not on the list of businesses allowed to reopen. Restaurants are. So they said, you know, Club Onyx. I ain't going to front. That's a tough one, though, because it is a restaurant. They sell food there and they sell drinks, right?
Starting point is 00:36:35 Was Titties out? Was Titties out? I don't know. I wasn't there. But even if they were. No, Titties out. It's a food. They're selling food.
Starting point is 00:36:43 You're not selling women. You're buying chicken and drinks. Nope. If there's areola out, you're violating. Okay? If they have cheeks out. I don't know. They have chicken.
Starting point is 00:36:53 With the money being thrown in. When they're making it rain. They have thighs and legs and breasts. Nope. If there was some thighs, legs, and breasts with no clothes on and there was money, it was raining some money, they violating, goddammit. Okay? Right. and there was money, it was raining, some money, they violating, God damn it. Okay? Right, I would say as long as you are only serving food and there's no entertainment, then that would make sense.
Starting point is 00:37:12 But they're saying they had the proper permits. Let me see the video. All right. Well, that is your front page news. I need to see the video to come to a proper conclusion. Come to a conclusion about this situation. My goodness. All right.
Starting point is 00:37:24 All right. Thank you, Miss Sheen. Now, when we come back, 800-585-1051, we're asking, is there anything worth going out right now during this pandemic? You mean to tell me if we wanted to be socially irresponsible, if we wanted
Starting point is 00:37:38 to violate the social distancing rules, if we wanted to throw cars into the wind and not give a damn about anybody else's life, is there something worth going out for? Is there something worth going out for? Is there something worth going out for? Oh, let me hear this. You better not say a damn barber. Let me hear this because I see you brushing your little beard.
Starting point is 00:37:53 800-585-1051. You got a little peach fuzz on your little chin and you brushing it. I wasn't going to say a barber. What I was going to say was a person who cuts your hair. Oh, shit. That would be a risk I would take. That would be a risk i would take that would be a risk you take yes i really need to go see a person who cuts your hair my goodness okay ye is there anything worth going out for right now i think just the only reasons i have been like to go to the
Starting point is 00:38:18 supermarket and you do need to get some air at some point so that but i don't want to sit down in a restaurant right now i don't want to sit down in a restaurant right now. I don't want to go to a club. I don't feel, I'm okay not getting my nails done, not getting my hair done. I want a fresh bald year shave. It ain't nothing worth going down for me. My wife cuts my hair, so I ain't got to worry about that.
Starting point is 00:38:38 She just did the line on the side too. It's actually pretty good. But I'm one of those brothers. I'm one of those brothers who's father never taught him how to shave. And I never learned. I never learned how to, you know, give myself a bald ear and shave my own face. So, yes, I go to the barber shop to get clean. And I'm at the point where I'm using beard butter in my beard.
Starting point is 00:38:57 You know, I was applying Monistat 7 and Jamaican Cast Oil to the thin parts of my hair this weekend. Did that work? I mean, I don't know yet. I haven't seen the results. Okay. My hair doesn't, I don't know yet. I haven't seen the results. Okay. My hair doesn't, I don't know. But maybe when my edges come back, I'll let you know. So I'm just saying, that's where we at with this thing called life, and I would definitely take the risk of
Starting point is 00:39:13 going to the barbershop. Nah, ain't nothing worth going out for me. I'm good. I'm going to stay my ass in the crib. But let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Is there anything worth going out for right now? Charlamagne said the barber. Ye said, nah, she's good money. I'm good money.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Call us up right now. Let's talk about it. They're calling me. Maybe some woman needs some D. Or maybe some brothers need some vajayjay. I don't know. Call us up right now. Or maybe brothers need some D.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Or maybe women need some vajayjay. Come on, be progressive, Envy. All right, you're right. But Charlamagne said call us now. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on, be progressive, Envy. Alright, you're right. But Charlamagne said, call us now. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to the
Starting point is 00:39:54 Breakfast Club topic. Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Pick up the phone, baby. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:40:18 We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about, you know, something that you don't give a F about. This quarantine is messing people up. But you're like, you know what? I don't care. I need to go out to do this. What is that this?
Starting point is 00:40:31 800-585-1051. Charlemagne, he's willing to risk it all for a barber. Well, listen, man, you know, if I'm going to be socially irresponsible, if I'm going to violate social distancing rules, if I'm going to throw caution to the wind and not give a damn about other people's lives, if I'm doing all of that, yes, the risk would be absolutely a haircut. That's it. I really need to see my barber tie. Salute the tie. I would love a fresh baldie and shave. I am one of those brothers whose father never taught him how to shave. I never learned on
Starting point is 00:41:00 my own. I don't know how to give myself a haircut. My wife, I don't want her doing that. That's not that serious, but it is serious enough for me to go take the risk to go see my barber tie. And listen, I go to the barbershop to get clean and if you look at me right now, I'm doing things I never thought I would be doing. I got beard butter that I'm using. I got me
Starting point is 00:41:18 a little beard, little beard, little wooden beard comb. This weekend I was applying Monistat 7 and Jamaican Castor Oil to the thin parts of my head because the homie Tiffany Haddish told me to help me get my edges back. So we'll see. We'll see in a couple weeks if I'm going to get them back or not.
Starting point is 00:41:32 But yes, that's the risk I would take is to go to the barber shop. Yeah, I'm not willing to take any of those risks. I actually tried to FaceTime my barber this weekend. My wife did decide, but she was about to do the front line. So I said, let me FaceTime the barber so he could guide her through. And when he picked up the FaceTime, he says, Envy, you're bugging.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Just wait. Just wait a couple more months. Just let it grow. Just let it grow. So she's doing this. So I'm not, there's nothing I'm willing to risk it for. I ain't going up. Angelique, correct me if I'm wrong. I saw this nigga Envy in Jamaica this weekend or something. If he wasn't in Jamaica, he was role playing like he was a Marley.
Starting point is 00:42:06 He had a DJ. Corey was there. He had his assistant there with him. He had, you know, it was a party. It was about 15 people. It was not 15 people. It was four people. In one room.
Starting point is 00:42:17 It was me and my wife. Couch next to each other. It was me and my wife. I didn't see no six feet of social distance. That's here, damn near every day. And she stays by herself. Y'all passing blunts to each other. There was no blunts.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Y'all passing blunts to each other. Y'all smoking hookahs. Got a little kiddie pool. There was no kiddie pool. Oh, yeah, we did have a little kiddie pool. We did have a little kiddie pool. Four big adults in a kiddie pool. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:39 There was no thing. But Nori was the only one that came to DJ. But I wasn't around him i wasn't hugging him he wasn't up close and he wasn't talking in my face i don't you know you didn't give him a hug for that no no i will say this i watched that video nori was not dressed for the occasion all right nori did not look like he was in jamaica that's not how you would dress in jamaica nori okay you had on a champion goddamn hoodie and a wool scully all right i almost thought it was photo i really thought he was behind a green screen or something,
Starting point is 00:43:05 and y'all had photoshopped him in. I really did. But, no, I'm not going out to get a haircut. He is one of my favorites when it comes to bringing those vibes. Yeah, he killed it. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is Juan from Atlanta, Georgia.
Starting point is 00:43:20 What's up, bro? ATL, ho! What would you risk it for to get out right now? What would you go to do or see? All right, straight up, bro? ATL, hope. What would you risk it for to get out right now? What would you go to do or see? All right, straight up. I'm responsible. But let's say if I'm not responsible, this is Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:43:31 I won't be doing what they're doing at varsity and what they did with the Jordans. I'm going to have to go see the Candyman and probably do a response. What's the Candyman? You can go get some smoke. The movie. I'll go to the movie.
Starting point is 00:43:41 He wants to go to the movie. Oh, you want to see Candyman. Oh, my bad. I thought you want to see Candyman. Oh, my bad. I thought you was calling me a candyman. I thought you was calling me a drug dealer and a candyman. Candyman came out? It was supposed to come out. But they pushed it back
Starting point is 00:43:59 until like November or something like that. I'm not going to lie. I agree with you. I would go see Black Widow. If they put Black Widow out, I would go see Black Widow. Coming to America. If they release Coming to America, I might have to catch a matinee somewhere. I think that's August.
Starting point is 00:44:15 If that comes out, I might have to catch a matinee somewhere in a town or probably a town where they don't really mess with black movies, but I could probably be the only one in there. I ain't going front. I'm pretty sure that's August. I agree with you. A good movie would be it. Like, I would go see Black Widow.
Starting point is 00:44:31 I would go see Coming to America 2. I think Kenya Barris is doing that as well. I salute to Kenya Barris. But I don't know about Candyman. My wife would probably go see Candyman, but she wouldn't take the risk. I definitely would see Candyman. That is, you know, my genre.
Starting point is 00:44:43 It's worth the risk, though? No, it's not worth the risk, though. No. Hello, who's this? What up, DJ Envy? What's up, bro? What's your name? What up, man?
Starting point is 00:44:52 Hey, what up, Solomon? Nice to meet you. Good morning. Hey, Solomon, how's it going with you, man? With the taking a risk going into the bar, we're going to get a haircut, man. Yeah, man. How you looking, man?
Starting point is 00:45:05 Can you post a picture of your hair and tag us? My hair look like Salamani's right now. Oh, then don't. Your hairline look like it's socially distancing from your forehead? No, it look like Project Grass, Salamani. Project Grass.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Your hair look like Project Grass. Post it. We want project grass. Post it. We want to see. We want to see. Post it. Tag us. I'm not going to lie. My hair look like Trap House carpet this weekend.
Starting point is 00:45:31 But I put the Jamaican castor oil with the Monistat 7 in it. And I combed it out. And it look all right. Everybody can't be like DJ Henry, man. They had a trap to pay. Nah, they ain't got no trap to pay. So let them down. Nah, mine is real.
Starting point is 00:45:44 Mine is real all over the place. You know, don't be mad. But 800-585-1051. We're talking. If there was one thing you would say, F this quarantine to go out and do, what would it be? Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Is your country falling apart?

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her
Starting point is 00:48:14 dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves, for self preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step.

Now, if you just joined us, we're taking your phone calls, 800-585-1051. What's one thing that you would say, F this quarantine, because you just had to go out and do? All right?
Starting point is 00:49:29 Whether it's watch a movie, go to the barbershop, nail salon, or maybe to get some D or some JJ, whatever it is. Maybe a little retail therapy. Maybe that, too. Hello, who's this? Good morning. This is Nina. Hey, good morning, Mama. What's one thing that you would leave this house right now
Starting point is 00:49:46 and F the quarantine to go do? I mean, the only thing I'm leaving my house for is work. My job is still open. And even then, I keep telling my supervisor every day to furlough me because the way people are making this money on unemployment, I don't deserve to be out right now. Let me get that unemployment check like everybody else, God damn it. I feel you, Queen.
Starting point is 00:50:05 For some people, that's more lucrative. It is. I know people are making like $1,100 a week. I could be doing that. Just chilling. I'm telling my boss every day. All you got is one day to talk to me wrong. And then I'm going to...
Starting point is 00:50:19 And you're like, I'm out of here. Yep. All right. Thank you, mama. Hello, who's this? What's up? This is your boy Meatball, mama. Hello, who's this? What's up? This is your boy Meatball from Michigan. Hey, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:50:29 What's up, Meatball? We're talking about one thing you would run out the house for right now, brother. Okay. I ain't got really one thing, but I'm going to hit it quick. There's so much stuff you can run out the house for, man. You know, these grandkids ain't seeing their grandmamas. These nephews ain't seeing their favoritemamas. These nephews ain't seeing their favorite aunties.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Some mamas ain't seeing their kids. There's a lot of stuff you can go out to the house for. Yeah, but you don't want to take the kids to actually be around the grandparents. You might drive them by the house. You know what I'm saying? What you want?
Starting point is 00:50:57 I don't know, Charlotte, man. I love my grandma. I hear you talk about your grandma. You know, I used to like to go see my grandma, sit around her for a couple hours, you know? Yeah, but I mean, I'm me too, but you can't, though, because, you know, you might be asymptomatic and you might go around grandma and, you know, pass it at Corona and you ain't mean to.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Next thing you know, she in a bad situation. Yeah, grandparents are in a high-risk group in case something happens. That's true, too. And let me just one thing. Henvy, how are you with your kids, man? You're a great father. How do you how do you how do you uh like that flu shot every year when you know it's a different strain how do you feel
Starting point is 00:51:30 like you don't feel like you're putting a different drug in your kids every year i just want to know your perspective on it because my son 15 he's had three open heart surgeries i've never had he gave the flu shot and he's never had caught the flu. That's great. I mean, for myself, uh, you know, I talked to a bunch of different doctors and a bunch of different doctors and not just white doctors, not just Asian doctors, not just everything, black doctors as well. They tell me about the flu shot and how it helps and protects the kids out there. And especially for myself who travels a lot, I'm always on a plane. I'm always in a different area. So I'll, I'll get a lot, and I will bring that back to my kids. So ever since they've been taking the flu shot,
Starting point is 00:52:08 they haven't been that sick at all, and they've been pretty good. So for myself, it's just something that I think is good for them. But, you know, to each his own. It works well for my kids, and they've been pretty well, knock on wood. She's an essential worker. She's got to get it. I don't knock it. I just wanted to know your thing. I'm just trying to make sure my kids are good. That's an essential worker. She got to get it. You know, I don't knock it. I just wanted to know your thing.
Starting point is 00:52:26 So, a method to my madness. I'm just trying to make sure my kids are good. That's all, brother. 800-585-1051. We're talking about what's one thing you would leave the house for right now. What's one thing you would say, F this quarantine? Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. If you just joined us, we're just asking, morning morning everybody it's dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club if you just joined us we're just asking what's one thing you would leave the house for charlamagne said he would leave the house right now to get a haircut he said definitely a haircut his hair looks like a project uh grass he said it looks like a robocop he said it looks like a pubic hair god damn it can i describe my own hair you you bastard? You beige bastard. It looks like
Starting point is 00:53:05 the Trap House carpet. I will say though that, you know, I'm at the point in my life where, you know, my homegirl, Tiffany Haddish, told me that
Starting point is 00:53:13 Monistat 7 and Jamaican Cast Oil would help me get my edges back and I started doing that this weekend. I'm not going to lie to y'all. I went to the goddamn pharmacy
Starting point is 00:53:20 to buy the Monistat 7 and I came home and I was trying to figure out do I put the Monistat 7 in the Jamaican cast oil and shake it up and squirt it on? And then my wife was clowning me like, why don't you use the applicator that comes with the Monistat 7? You apply it in your hair. It's all bad right now.
Starting point is 00:53:35 So, yes, definitely. The barber is who I need to see. So, to my guy, Ty. Let me ask you a question. You know, Donald Trump said Clorox and Lysol will help your hair grow. You said what now? I said Donald Trump said clorox will uh and lysol will help your hair grow you said what now i said donald trump said clorox and lysol you spray that on your head wipe it like clorox wipes and helps you i don't think i don't think that would be that that dangerous i mean look you inject um hair plugs into your hair you don't know what the hair plug material is made out of you
Starting point is 00:53:59 know what i'm saying so clearly clearly it could have some effect on your brain so it's no different than bleach or clorox on your scalp. And plus, people bathe. People bathe in Clorox. So at least, at the least, I'd be getting the germs out of my head. Well, very diluted, by the way, when they bathe. I don't even know what that means. It means they pour water in it so it's not that much.
Starting point is 00:54:19 Or water it down. There you go. Water it down. There you go. Water it down. Let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? Hey, go. Water it down. There you go. Water it down. Let's go to the phone. Hello, who's this? Hey, my man.
Starting point is 00:54:28 Hey, mama. What's one thing you would run out the house for right now? I'm leaving out the door right now to get these eyebrows done. Right now. Oh, wow. You're going right now. You're bushy, huh? I'm going to get Corona.
Starting point is 00:54:40 You're going to get Corona? I ain't trusting. Yes. I ain't trusting. Where you from? First Jacksonville, North Carolina. You get your eyebrows threaded or waxed? What do you do?
Starting point is 00:54:49 I ain't gonna lie. I get them waxed. Okay. Don't you pluck them with an eyebrow. Pluck them with an eyebrow. You know, the eyelash or whatever it's called. Tweezer, I mean. Tweezer. That unibrow is getting right. Oh, you got a unibrow. No, the unibrow is gone because of the them... Oh, you got a unibrow. No, the unibrow's gone because the
Starting point is 00:55:06 tweezers, but I need the little fleek. First of all, Anthony Davis was... You know what, I will say, when your eyebrows are done, it does make your whole face look just neater. Like, you just feel... Exactly. You ain't going nowhere. You ain't got nowhere to go. Okay, everybody on quarantine. We all quarantine cute right now.
Starting point is 00:55:22 Huh? This is me. That corona gonna be for you, too too And I always try to tell myself I'm gonna keep it up myself afterwards So I don't have to keep going And I'm gonna pluck it And just maintain it And I never do Let me ask you a question, Charlamagne
Starting point is 00:55:33 When we're into quarantine I said the same thing And then look what happened Well, you know Well, mama, you should get advice From Charlamagne Charlamagne, you remember When you plucked your eyebrows?
Starting point is 00:55:41 What did he say? I never plucked my eyebrows That never happened Yes, you did I seen that picture With your eyebrows Looking very Latino Oh, no, my eyebrows My remember when you plucked your eyebrows? What did he say? I never plucked my eyebrows. That never happened. Yes, you did. I seen that picture with your eyebrows looking very Latino-ish. Oh, no. My eyebrows weren't plucked. I got my eyebrows arched.
Starting point is 00:55:50 I'm Hispanic. I'm Mexican. We keep them on fleek. Okay. Okay. Hold on. Now, I just got confused. You said you're Hispanic and Mexican.
Starting point is 00:55:58 I thought that was two different things. Same thing. It is? Mexicans are Hispanic, Charlamagne. Okay. I don't know. Just making sure. I thought those were two different things.
Starting point is 00:56:07 I hate this guy, man. All right. What's the moral of the story, man? The moral of the story is, man, you can take whatever risk you want to take. If you want to go live your life with the corona, living your life with corona, go out there and do it. But, you know, the rest of us, we're going to be over here being socially responsible and caring about other people's lives because it's not about us in this moment. All those little creature comforts that we don't have right now, we'll get them back soon enough. My goodness. All right. Well, Yee, we got rumors on the way?
Starting point is 00:56:34 Yes, we'll be talking about episodes five and six of The Last Dance docuseries on ESPN. We'll tell you what were some of the takeaways from last night. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk The Last Dance.
Starting point is 00:56:56 This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Yes, so last night was episodes five and six of the documentary event the last dance and some of the things that were discussed kobe bryant makes an appearance and here is michael jordan and kobe bryant kobe was talking about michael jordan making him great it was a rough couple years for me and coming to the league because at the time the league was so much older it's not as young as it is today. Michael provided a lot of guidance for me.
Starting point is 00:57:26 Like, I had a question about shooting his turnaround shot. So I asked him about it. You know, he gave me a great detailed answer. But on top of that, he said, if you ever need anything, give me a call. He's like my big brother. You know, I truly hate having discussions about who would win one-on-one. What you get from me is from him. I don't get five championships here without him.
Starting point is 00:57:48 He's absolutely right. I mean, he was influenced by Michael Jordan in a real way, mimicked his game. So you don't get those five championships from Kobe without Michael. Michael was his muse. Just think he was just a teenager. All right, now Michael Jordan also talks about
Starting point is 00:58:02 the sneaker deal that he really wanted. He never wanted to sign with Nike, and he couldn't sign with Converse, and Adidas just didn't have the bandwidth for him, so here's what happened. Converse had big players and told me, we cannot envision you being put ahead of them. Did you have a shoe company that you wanted to build? That was Adidas.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Adidas was really dysfunctional by that time, and they had just told me, look, we'd love to have Jordan. We just can't make a shoe work at this point in time. Michael didn't even want to be at Nike. And my mother said, you're going to go listen. Go into that meeting not wanting to be there. Nike made this big pitch. And my father said, you've got to be a fool for not taking this deal. This is the best deal.
Starting point is 00:58:41 I respect that move, too. That is so crazy. I mean, you never, back then, looking at a Nike right now, could you imagine, you could never imagine Nike not being this big. Like for, as a kid,
Starting point is 00:58:52 it's just Nike, I said Nike, Nike just always seemed like it's always been this big, but I guess not. Yeah, Nike was the upstart and Converse was the sneaker of the moment.
Starting point is 00:59:01 It's just interesting to me that Michael was willing to follow the crowd at Converse. He don't seem like a crowd follower. You know what I mean? It seemed like he would want to go somewhere else and carve his own lane, which he did. Yep. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Well, I think once he took that meeting, that's when he realized he just wasn't even thinking about sitting down and taking that meeting. Sometimes you don't even know. All right. Now, there was also a lot of controversy about Michael Jordan not endorsing Harvey Gantt at the time. And here's what happened. Was quoted quoted as saying Republicans buy sneakers too. I don't think that statement needs to be corrected because I said it in just, you know, on a bus with, you know, Horace Grant and Scottie Pippen. And it was, you know, thrown off the cuff. My mother asked to do a PSA for Harvey Gantt. And I said, look, Mom, I'm not speaking out of pocket about someone I don't know,
Starting point is 00:59:46 but I will send a contribution to support him, which is what I did. I do commend Muhammad Ali for standing up for what he believed in, but I never thought of myself as an activist.
Starting point is 00:59:56 I thought of myself as a basketball player. That was an interesting conversation, especially being that he said, he said that he was, he said that comment in jest about Republicans buy sneakers too. And he said He said that he said that comment in jest About Republicans buy sneakers too And he said he just donated some money
Starting point is 01:00:08 To what's the brother's name? To Gant, to Harvey Gant He donated some money to Gant's campaign I mean I don't know I just thought that was interesting What you thought was interesting The fact that he didn't pick a side He just wouldn't publicly say something He didn't know the person And he kind of did. He just wouldn't publicly say something.
Starting point is 01:00:25 He didn't know the person, and he just never was wanting to get too into politics. I can't be mad at him for that. You know what I'm saying? He didn't know enough about it. He made a comment that was off the cuff that was kind of unjust, and then it just got blown up out of proportion, and he never felt the need to explain himself for that.
Starting point is 01:00:44 Yeah, and like he said, he said he was focusing on basketball that was his sole focus he wasn't the guy that was in the politics or anything like that he gave money because his mom was telling him you know yo this is the guy so i mean i can't be mad at him for that he said they always said michael was very particular about what he attached himself to correct he just didn't want to want to put himself into that political world. That political space. We heard about him turning down $100 million for a two-hour appearance. So clearly, if he doesn't want to do something and he doesn't feel connected to do it, then he doesn't have to. Now, he also talked about the alleged gambling problem because there's all these rumors that he has a big gambling problem.
Starting point is 01:01:19 And here's what he said. Yeah, Richard Esquinas, we met from a third party. You know, I'm actually playing golf with people all the time now. And if they want to gamble, we gamble. The character of those individuals, I find out later what kind of people I was playing with. I learned that lesson. But the act of gambling, I didn't do anything wrong. I never bet on games. I only bet on myself. You know, that was golf. Do I like to play blackjack? Yeah, I like playing blackjack. And the league did call me and they asked questions about it, you know, and I told golf. Do I like to play blackjack? Yeah, I like playing blackjack. And the league did call me, and they asked questions about it, you know, and I told them exactly what was happening.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Do you think you have a gambling problem at all? No, because I can stop gambling. I have a competition problem. I wonder how Michael Jordan feels about online poker. You think he sits around on his phone on online poker all day? I don't know. It seems like he's more competitive, like, in person. I think he's just competitive regardless. Like, he's the type of person I feel like if you send him a video game
Starting point is 01:02:08 and he's playing like video game pool, like he's going to try to beat you regardless and really try to destroy. He just seems like he's a competitive person. All right. Now he also talks about the pressures of media and Michael Jordan, you know, discusses just not even being able to have a life. He couldn't really even go out or do anything without people always having him be on, having to take pictures, people crowding around him. Here's what he had to say about those pressures. Physically, I was getting exhausted.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Mentally, I was way past exhausted. When you try to do something repetitively, you lose some of the hunger and some of the edge. I'm at that stage in my career, in my life, that I'd rather get behind closed doors than to be out there in the spotlight to be taking shots from everyone that really don't know you as
Starting point is 01:02:50 a person. If I had a chance to do it all over again, I would never want to be considered a role model. It's like a game that's stacked against me. You know, there's no way I can win. Now, that to me was the most interesting part of the last dance last night, because I was just trying to, I was imagining like, can you
Starting point is 01:03:05 imagine if Michael Jordan grew up in the social media era and when you watched, and I'm not making this a LeBron Jordan thing at all, but when you watched the media pressure Jordan was under during that first three-peat, it does make you respect LeBron even more for staying sane his
Starting point is 01:03:21 entire career because you got to think about all of that, like LeBron had to deal with all the stuff that Michael Jordan had to deal with as far as the media is concerned, plus some social media, and plus the fact that LeBron didn't win. At least when Michael Jordan won, you silenced the critics.
Starting point is 01:03:36 LeBron has lost a lot, which makes the critics pile on you even more. So for you to still be able to show up season after season, perform, and not go crazy, that's commendable, man, on both those brothers' parts, man. A lot of mental fortitude. We always marvel at these brothers' physical gifts, but man, mentally and emotionally, they are
Starting point is 01:03:54 very strong. High emotional intelligence, high mental fortitude. Alright, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Report. Alright, thank you, Miss Yee. And after Donkey of the Day today, we have a major announcement. So definitely keep it locked. And who are you giving that donkey to, Charlamagne?
Starting point is 01:04:09 Donkey of the Day is going to Francisco Garcia. I don't even want to call him officer. His badge number is 19234 here in New York City. He needs to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him, please. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked and don't forget like I said, we have a huge announcement after
Starting point is 01:04:27 Donkey. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. I wanna start at the top and the bottom, babe. Now you want to shoot with the red at the bottom, babe. You know I like when you ride at the top, babe. If I hit it front or back, she gonna hit a sidewalk. If she got a best man with her, take her back a mile off. Got a five in the
Starting point is 01:04:43 morning, wild and wild. And then they made Megan, but she a stallion, stallion. Never see my I was born a donkey. I put some ice on you cause you got a cold heart. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. These donkeys, donkeys, donkeys. Punch them. It's that day. It's that time. For the donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:05:19 That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Dog year today for Monday, May 4th, goes to a 33-year-old police officer in New York City named Francisco Garcia. I hate the fact that I still have to call this man a police officer, but his badge number is 19234.
Starting point is 01:05:41 Now, over the weekend, the NYPD was out enforcing social distancing on black people and nobody else. I mean, that's just my personal opinion. And I'm only basing that off the videos and pictures that I saw. It doesn't mean it's the truth. Just telling you how it looked because it seemed to me that I saw black folks getting manhandled and getting their asses kicked in the East village while white folks was in the East village park, soaking up sun,
Starting point is 01:06:02 living a life with Corona, living a life with Corona, even receiving masks from police officers so they can safely get some of that not so fresh Corona air. Well, while the white folks in the parks in NYC were receiving masks from NYPD officers just two miles away in the Bronx on East 9th Street and Avenue D, Francisco Garcia was out abusing his power as only a person who has never been used to having power would. Okay, see, according to the NY Post, Shaquem Brunson and Ashley Serrano allegedly refused to move along and resisted cops' efforts to cuff them. A small crowd of onlookers gathered a few feet away during the tussle, and for whatever reason, this pissed off Officer Francisco Garcia. And from there, that's when all hell broke loose. Let's go to CBS, and for whatever reason, this pissed off Officer Francisco Garcia.
Starting point is 01:06:47 And from there, that's when all hell broke loose. Let's go to CBS 2NY for the report, please. The escalation of social distancing orders led to a police confrontation in the East Village. Video posted on social media shows NYPD officers arresting a man near Avenue D and East 9th Street last night. The NYPD says officers instructed a group of people to disperse and most of them complied. But investigators say one man became aggressive and registered, resisted rather, arrest after officers saw what they thought was marijuana. The video appeared to show one officer striking a man who tried to intervene. The police commissioner says the department is investigating and that his officers will continue their patrols. In the East Village incident, the commissioner said one police officer has been placed on
Starting point is 01:07:29 modified duty. Now, I don't like the way the media reported that. They made it sound a little too sweet, okay? They made it sound like it's just a regular day on the force. They made it sound like Francisco Garcia badge number 19234 was just doing his job and he wasn't. The officer Garcia told everyone move the F back. And then a brother named Donnie Wright, who was a groundskeeper for the New York Housing Authority,
Starting point is 01:07:51 who seemed to be concerned, as any taxpaying citizen should and would, he seemed to be concerned about the treatment that Garcia was applying to those other two people. So Garcia yells at Donnie, don't flex. What you flexing for? I'll tell you what Donnie is flexing for. He's flexing because he's tired of seeing suck ass human beings like you abuse the power of the police badge. Okay. It's just that simple. You are pushing people to their breaking point. And in a minute, a man flexing on you is going to be the least of your worries. Now the NYPD said Officer Francisco badge number 19234
Starting point is 01:08:26 felt threatened when Donnie Wright struck a fighting stance. Now, FYI, this so-called fighting stance didn't get caught on video, probably because it never happened. Listen to this clip and tell me if Officer Francisco Garcia badge number 19234 sounds like he was even remotely
Starting point is 01:08:41 threatened. Stop. No, no, you're going to jail. You're going to jail. You're not doing nothing. What is he doing? You're going to jail. You're going to jail. You're going to jail. You're going to jail. You're going to jail.
Starting point is 01:08:54 What are you flexing for? Don't flex. We got a lot of stuff to deal with. Look, look, look. He ain't even do nothing. He's harming me. He ain't even do nothing. He didn't even do nothing. He didn't even do nothing. Look. A social distancing enforcement turned into Officer Francisco Garcia living out his dreams of being a WWE wrestler.
Starting point is 01:09:14 This guy just started laying the smack down on his poor brother Donnie Wright, hit him with the rock bottom, all in the name of enforcing social distancing rules. There is layers to this donkey of the day. Number one reason he's getting donkier today, abuse of power, beating up on these people who pay his salary, period. Second, how are you going to enforce social distancing by violating social distancing? Francisco Garcia, badge number 19234, You, sir, put your hands on people Slammed them to the ground Was all in their face
Starting point is 01:09:48 If that's how you was treating people all weekend I am almost certain you contracted the coronavirus You didn't have no mask on, no gloves on You wasn't Purell-ing your hands After you was putting paws on people Did that thought even run across your mind That you, too, are supposed to be staying Six feet away from people
Starting point is 01:10:03 That you, too, can be infected If you come into too much contact with someone that's asymptomatic you look a little chunky around the middle francisco and i know you're only 33 but obesity is definitely a risk factor for coronavirus patients so if you were to get coronavirus francisco garcia it would probably handle you the way you handled donnie Wright. Now, let's be clear. Francisco Garcia, badge number 19234, he needs to be fired. Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted yesterday, saw the video from the Lower East Side and was really disturbed by it. The officer involved has been placed on modified duty and an investigation has begun. The behavior I saw in that video is simply not acceptable.
Starting point is 01:10:49 I hate statements like that. The reason I hate statements like that is because it insults the intelligence of us, the people. What is there to investigate? We see the video. We saw what happened. A bunch of civilians screaming for help, and nobody can help them because we don't have a Black Panther Party to police the police. Who helps you when the people who are paid to protect and serve us are the ones harming us? There is no good police officer who should sit around and co-sign this kind of behavior from that badass police officer. There is a quote. I don't know who is attributed to, but the words are, the world suffers a lot.
Starting point is 01:11:19 Not because of the violence of bad people, but because of the silence of the good people. Let's remix that a little bit. Let's put a little spin on that one and say police officers suffer a lot. Not because of the violence of the bad cops, but because of the silence of the good cops. If this cop, Francisco Garcia, isn't fired, then the NYPD is cosigning his behavior. That's it. You're saying what he did is okay. And that, sir, is going to lead to this.
Starting point is 01:11:47 This is some words from the good brother, Killer Mike. He left this comment yesterday on Sean King's page. And Killer Mike said this, and I totally agree. He says this type of officer is going to lead to a straw that broke the camel's back moment where the public pushes back. It will be ugly and violent. It will be ugly and violent. It will be spontaneous and brutal. He and his ego are going to cost more officers their safety and possibly their lives and the lives of the public as well. Shame on his lame ass for the damage of public trust he is causing with his bully and gang like actions in Killer Mike's quote.
Starting point is 01:12:22 Drop on a drop on a clues bombs for Killer Mike. I just want to say NYPD, distance yourself, social distance yourself from this kind of behavior. Okay. Do the right thing and put the people over police politics and fire this guy. Please let Remy Ma give Francisco Garcia badge number 19234, the biggest hee haw. Hee haw, hee haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. All righthaw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. All right, thank you for that donkey today, Charlemagne. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 01:12:51 Now, when we come back, we got a special guest you got a chance to sit down with, or I should say chop it up with. Yeah, man, one of my favorite authors. If you've ever read the classic book, The Four Agreements, which has only sold like 9, 10 million copies, but who's counting?
Starting point is 01:13:03 The Fifth Agreement, Mastery of Love, Voice and Knowledge, and you will enjoy this. The author of those books, Don Miguel Ruiz, will be joining us when we come back. I just like to share the tools I use with my folks, the tools I use to get by. I like to share them with people, man.
Starting point is 01:13:18 So Don Miguel Ruiz, the author of The Four Agreements, The Fifth Agreement, The Voice of Knowledge, Mastery of Love, among others. He'll be joining us when we come back. All right, and also we have a huge announcement. We'll talk about that as well, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:13:38 You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning show. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, shout out to all the New Yorkers out there. Now, New York is facing the worst poverty epidemic since the Great Depression. Two million New Yorkers are now going hungry. That's double the number 60 days ago. Two-thirds all jobs lost in New York during this pandemic were held by workers earning less than $40,000.
Starting point is 01:14:04 Lines are stretched around the corner for food banks and food pantries. 750,000 school children have lost access to two meals a day. So here in New York City, this is what we're going to do. We are going to help. What are we doing? Robin Hood and iHeartMedia present Rise Up New York, a relief benefit hosted by Tina Fey to support New Yorkers impacted by COVID-19. Yes, it will be musical performances that will include Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Mariah Carey, Sting. Also appearances by Governor Andrew Cuomo, Angie Ma, Barbara Streisand, Ben Platt, Bette Midler, Mayor Bill de Blasio, Chris Rock, Christopher Jackson, Robert De Niro, Jake
Starting point is 01:14:48 Gyllenhaal, Jennifer Lopez, Jimmy Fallon, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Trevor Noah, Eli Manning, Justin Tuck, Phil Sims, and there'll also be some real-life accounts of the work that is being done on the frontlines and 100% of these donations will provide support for food, shelter,
Starting point is 01:15:04 cash assistance, health and mental health, legal services, education, and so much more that will help fellow New Yorkers rebuild their lives as the city is moving forward toward recovery and beyond. Yep, so that's New York television and radio stations going to air a citywide virtual telethon. It's going to happen Monday. That's next Monday, May 11th at 7 p.m. Eastern Time to raise awareness and funds to help New Yorkers whose lives have been dramatically impacted by COVID-19. and a soup kitchen. $100 feeds a family of three for a week, so everything counts. Imagine if 8 million New Yorkers gave $25 each.
Starting point is 01:15:50 That would raise $200 million. And you can go to Robinhood.org. That's Robinhood.org. All right, so donate if you can. Again, it's Robinhood.org. Now, when we come back, Charlamagne, you got a chance to kick it with who now? Don Miguel Ruiz.
Starting point is 01:16:05 He is the author of The Four Agreements. He's the author of The Fifth Agreement, The Mastery of Love, The Voice of Knowledge. He's one of my favorite authors. Toltec Wisdom is something that I've been, you know, reading about and studying for years. And it'll be great to sit down and talk to the author of all of these books, Don Miguel Ruiz, right here on The Breakfast Club. Now, I want to start with, you know, in Totic Wisdom, there are three fundamental masteries. The first one is the mastery of awareness. And mastery teaches us to be aware of what we, you know, what we are, right? So during this global pandemic, everybody is home.
Starting point is 01:16:39 So what is God trying to make us aware about right now? Well, I think it's very interesting because everybody has a great opportunity that they can focus on themselves to see, to get the first question, what am I? Who am I? And is this real? Because when something like that happens, it challenges our beliefs. It challenges what we believe about ourselves. It challenges almost everything.
Starting point is 01:17:08 And the other question, what is love, really? Because love and life, at least for me, is the same thing. Everything is made by life, by life, by love. Then it's an opportunity that we have to see deep inside ourselves and see our own story and see how we create, how we react to everything that happens around. It is an opportunity to start changing our reactions because we cannot control what is happening outside of us,
Starting point is 01:17:43 but we can control the way we react. If we are aware of what we are or what we are not, it will be so easy. Even we can have advantage of whatever is happening because we don't play with fear. And this is extremely important. Like right now, the main problem is not the virus, it's the fear that we have, that we create. Then we got so scared and it's so difficult for us to react in different ways.
Starting point is 01:18:19 Then like I said, it's a big opportunity for all of us to see what we really feel, what we really want, and to evaluate the priorities that we have. Because priority number one is our own physical body. Because without our body, there's no way that we can express or feel or react. If we don't work, we have nothing to give. The second priority will be our children, our beloved, our family, that we really should care about them and take care of them the same way that they take care of us. The other priority will be the way of living or work, what we do for living,
Starting point is 01:19:06 because these will be the three main priorities that we should have. First, ourselves. I cannot give love if I don't exist. I can communicate if I don't exist. I cannot protect if I don't exist. Then the people that we love the most and then the work to give them what we can and receive, give, receive. Then there comes the sense of community. We have to unlearn the way we learn to love. And then we can give and receive. Then I can say that love is equilibrium between gratitude and generosity we need to give and we need to receive you know
Starting point is 01:20:00 let's see if I love you you realize your reaction will be to love me back, to have the gratitude for what you're receiving. And it is your gratitude, you even give more than what you receive. And then I will be grateful for what I receive from you. And I'm going to give even more. Then we rise in love. We don't fall in love. This is true for any kind of relationship in any direction.
Starting point is 01:20:28 We have to be so grateful for everything that we receive. And we also can give the same way. What is top to generosity is the selfishness of people. They're selfish and they stop you to give. Then you don't give anymore. Got you. Alright, when we come back, we have more with Don Miguel Ruiz. When we come back, so don't move, it's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:20:52 Good morning. DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne Degas, we are The Breakfast Club. Over the weekend, Charlemagne had a chance to kick it with Don Miguel Ruiz, so let's get into part two of that. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:21:06 Another one of your books I love is The Fifth Agreement. Be skeptical, but listen. And I feel like that's one of the most important agreements you can stand on in this country right now. Why do you feel that agreement is so necessary? Well, it is the most important one. Be skeptical, but learn to listen. And it's for what we just talked a little before. You live in your own story that you create. And you create a main
Starting point is 01:21:34 character, which is you. And in your story, there's a lot of secondary characters. Every person that you know is a secondary character in your story. The real ones have nothing to do with the secondary characters in your story. Like your parents, brothers, sisters, beloved. This is just how you see them, how you perceive them. And they're only truth in your mind. The same way in their mind. You're only a secondary character it only
Starting point is 01:22:06 they only know about you what they believe that you are but it's so far to the truth then be skeptical means that you don't have to believe anybody because you know that is the main character of their story the one who is speaking. And it's their truth. It's not your truth. But you learn to listen. Then you hear the message that they're giving to you. And with the things that you agree, you keep it.
Starting point is 01:22:41 The rest, you don't need it. And vice versa you have the right to tell the entire world what you believe they can believe you or not think what they say see about you is just a secondary character in their mind it's not the real you because sometimes not even or self know ourselves see then when you get that point you don't believe then you listen you take action but the most important part is that you don't have to believe yourself all what you learn all what you all your ideas you don't have to believe it but if you listen to yourself then you use the power of the doubt to see, is that true what I believe in?
Starting point is 01:23:29 Is that true what I'm saying? And when you discern that, you will let go so many of the lies that you tell to yourself. If you release yourself or stop doing it, what you believe is wrong for you, and you can enjoy life even more and more because this fifth agreement release you completely from yourself that's why it's the most important one a lot of people say um you know it's very positive i mean it's very it's very easy to
Starting point is 01:24:00 stay positive when when you have money and money and you're kind of well off. So staying in alignment while all this chaos is around us, when you've lost your job, money isn't coming in, you have to think how you feed your family. That's hard. So how would you tell somebody to stay in alignment through all that when they're in this condition, when they're in that condition? Well, do you think it's true what you just said? That your money, you're happy? No. It's not true.
Starting point is 01:24:27 In the extreme poverty. I see many people being happy and they complain, of course. And I see people very rich, they complain also. But they live in completely different worlds. Somebody that is very rich don't understand middle class or don't understand poverty someone who live in poverty they don't understand these other worlds they can wish but they adjust to whatever world they live because it's what they know and yes with our creation we can create more we could chase levels you know for example
Starting point is 01:25:08 if you wake up in japan tomorrow and you don't speak that language you cannot understand anybody but you will see another way of living another way of belief a different kind of religion then they get comes okay which one is Who is, is that true what they believe or is true what I believe? Then you come back to the States after have all that experience, you will see everything will change. There's different worlds.
Starting point is 01:25:35 And you'll see very poor people being happy, middle-class people being happy, rich people being happy, and opposite be miserable because it will depends more of the individual and how we adapt to life how do we adapt to society there's a lot of billions of people in this world and everybody live in their own world in their own mind in their own mind, in their own creation, because they recreate what is real. It's parallel realities, billions. My final question for you, where do you see us going from here?
Starting point is 01:26:14 Well, we will recover because it's not forever, and we will keep evolving. We will see better generations coming. But also we will see the opposite also. It's not the end of war. It's not the end of none of those. It just keeps changing. But if you compare worlds, the way we live now,
Starting point is 01:26:40 the way we used to live a thousand years ago, it's a huge difference. And it doesn't mean that got better or worse. No, we're just different. The way we used to live a thousand years ago is a huge difference. And it doesn't mean that got better or worse. No, we're just different. But yes, we are evolving. In the last 20, 30 years, we evolved very fast than the other 100 years before or 200 years before. And we can shift in and changing. and we're searching for the same things.
Starting point is 01:27:08 We're really searching for ourselves to our own personal freedom. Free from ourselves, of course. Don Miguel Ruiz, thank you very much for this time that you blessed me with this morning. I really appreciate it. I've been reading your work for a long, long time
Starting point is 01:27:23 and Toltec wisdom is something that I try to apply to my life on a daily. And I don't always get it right. But as the fourth agreement says, I always do my best. Well, thank you very much. You gave me a big opportunity to share myself with you and whoever listened to you. Enjoy every moment, please. Yes, sir. Blessings to you.
Starting point is 01:27:43 Okay. Okay. Bye-bye. All right. Well, shout to Don Miguel Ruiz for checking in. Now, when we come back, we have rumors, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:27:56 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, DJ Khaled was trying to show some of his people some love,
Starting point is 01:28:10 and he was on Instagram Live inviting people to get on with him. Only thing is, one woman got on, and she really wanted to twerk, and she was pouring water on herself. Listen to this. Oh, s***. Oh, s***. No, no, don't do that. I have to get the water. No, it's all love. No, s***. Oh, s***. No, no, don't do that.
Starting point is 01:28:26 I have to get the water. No, it's all love. No, I got love and everything. I've been saying, like, you know what I'm saying? I got a family and everything. Like, you know what I'm saying? No, I got love. I got to get the water, though.
Starting point is 01:28:36 No, no, no, no. I got love. It's a fair love question. No? No, I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. He tried to make it work.
Starting point is 01:28:41 Yeah, I'm with Khaled. Nah. Nah, it's not going to happen over here. Yeah, I respect it, but Khaled does music videos. And in a lot of those music videos, there's women half-naked dancing, twerking. So what's the difference? But that's like one-on-one.
Starting point is 01:28:54 That's like you're dancing for me. You know what I mean? It's just like, nah. Go to Tory Lanez page. I'm DJ Khaled. I blame this all on Tory Lanez and Lil Boosie, man. Yeah, go to Tory Lanez page. He did what was right.
Starting point is 01:29:08 I respect Khaled for, you know, taking that stance. But, I mean, I think that I would think his wife would be used to that type of lifestyle by now, right? I don't want to run. He did what was right. Nope, sorry, can't do this. Got to go to somebody else's page. It's not really one-on-one, though. There's, like, thousands of people watching.
Starting point is 01:29:26 Yeah, and Khaled has had other love interest in videos. When he was saying, you smart, you special. He wasn't talking to his wife in that video. And he was acting. He was acting on IG Live too.
Starting point is 01:29:37 That's my story. All right, now let's talk about a new Rihanna documentary that is in the works. So looks like this could be happening sometime soon, directed by Peter Berg. And they also worked together on that film in the works. So looks like this could be happening sometime soon, directed by Peter Berg. And they also work together on the film Battleship. He actually directed that film and she had a role in that as well. So it would be pretty interesting. I've been seeing some
Starting point is 01:29:56 spoilers about what is allegedly in it, but I'm not sure how true they are. So we'd love to see a Rihanna documentary. Now, Gabrielle Union was on her Instagram, and she was talking about how Black entertainers are being affected by coronavirus with their paychecks and not being able to pay for things. Here's what she had to say. For most, certainly Black entertainers, Black celebrities, most of us are one or two checks away
Starting point is 01:30:21 from not having money to pay for all of our things you know what i mean um so this stoppage of work and money is impacting marginalized celebrities the most you know like all those influencers you see they may not have a lot of liquid income you can't charge your rent yeah i think that's true for a lot of people it doesn't matter what industry you're in you know it's been a tough time for the lot of people. It doesn't matter what industry you're in. You know, it's been a tough time for the majority of people not knowing how they're going to get all their bills paid if they don't get a check or two. So it's not easy. You know, I saw Tory Lanez doing something interesting last week on YouTube.
Starting point is 01:30:58 He was performing on YouTube and he was getting money for that. Yeah, that was pretty dope. He was performing at an empty venue and people, I guess, had to pay a fee to get in and then they could request a record. And if they request a song, you have to pay for a request and he would perform that record. I don't think you didn't have to pay to get in. I think you have to have your comments. No, you have to pay to have your comments seen. And so then if he sees your comment and you can request a song and then he can do your song, but it costs money to have your comments seen.
Starting point is 01:31:21 But it didn't cost money to get in. Oh, OK. They should have charged to get in. I mean, it was like a club. I thought they charged to get in. Even if it was just like a dollar fee to get in, that would be dope. There's people that, you know, Erykah Badu's been doing it on her platform, like $2
Starting point is 01:31:34 for the concert. Smart. I've seen a lot of people doing like a club quarantine, like strip clubs, like Boosie did that where he charged people money to get in the club, you know, but... I ain't gonna front. I thought about that, you know, over the weekend when I did the little, when I did the Jamaica thing, we had close to a hundred thousand people stop through. And I was like, damn, if I charged a dollar a person, I was like, that's how artists are
Starting point is 01:31:55 gonna start making money. They perform and you charge a dollar a person. What's a dollar a person? But you're assuming they would pay for that content. Did you have a hundred thousand people because it was free? Yep. You know what I mean? If you was charging a dollar,
Starting point is 01:32:07 you might not have had that many people. But think about it. Let's say it was only 10%, only 20% of those people wanted to pay the dollar. You don't need the money, Envy. Knock it off. I'm just saying. That's what artists can do.
Starting point is 01:32:18 That's what artists can definitely do. There's a lot of artists out here that can't perform right now, and so they're trying to find ways that they can sustain. And I'm cool with that because you have a choice. Only fans. I would have paid you. Only fans.
Starting point is 01:32:31 Fashionable. Listen, Beyonce might start an Only Fans. And when she mentioned that in the, well, you know, she shouted out Only Fans in the remix on the Savage remix with Meg Thee Stallion. And that actually caused a 15% jump in traffic. And I guarantee you if Beyonce starts an OnlyFans, it's because she's getting paid to start an OnlyFans. The best better believe that.
Starting point is 01:32:52 Yeah, but I would have paid for Tory Lanez. Y'all want to pay for Tory Lanez to see Tory Lanez perform? His OnlyFans? The Tory Lanez concert? No, at the venue. I was like, whoa. If he was performing, I paid. You wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:33:03 I like Tory Lanez, but I wouldn't pay for it. From my understanding, what they did was, to see your comments and all of that, that's really big in the gaming world, and a lot of bands have been doing this overseas. So this is not something that's new, but it's something that's been big that we haven't really experimented here with
Starting point is 01:33:18 in the United States to that level. So this could open doors for a lot of people. All right, Erykah Badu and Jill Scott, as you know, are doing an Instagram live music battle. I'm so excited for this. This is going May 9th. I've been dying for a versus battle with the ladies, so I'm excited to see that one.
Starting point is 01:33:35 I was actually listening to playlists from Erykah Badu and Jill Scott over the weekend trying to figure out, okay, who's going to win this battle? But again, we love to see these battles actually bring out the best in people. Love for it to be friendly. Love to hear some untold stories. And Monica and Brandi, I think, feel the same way. A lot of people are calling on them to do a versus battle.
Starting point is 01:33:56 Here's what Monica had to say. The only battle or versus they want to see with me is me against Brandi. And the reality is people have put us against each other for 20-something years. So could we do a celebration or something of that sort? That would be the only thing that makes sense to me. You're going to turn this into 1998 all over again. And I have no interest in that.
Starting point is 01:34:14 If there's a way to do a real celebration, then that would be dope. Because Teddy and Babyface were really celebrating each other. I was a little scared watching Sean in the journey. Like, hey, fellas, are we serious here? Well, listen, this is easy for me. You start with a draw for Boy Is Mine. Let that be the first song and then go from there. Brandi Catalog is dope. She got classic records.
Starting point is 01:34:34 I love a lot of her records, but I actually did this on vacation last summer with the Oxcord and I got Monica. Monica to me, I prefer Monica. But 20 records each? Well, here's what Brandi had to say about if she's open to do a battle with Monica also. Yeah, that would be kind of weird.
Starting point is 01:34:51 Like, who would play, you know, the boy's mind? That would be kind of... You got to start there and then branch off. Yeah, I don't know. I'm open for sure. And I'm not closed-minded. Yeah, I can see that being a celebration. You're saying to me, Eric, about doing Jill Scott.
Starting point is 01:35:04 Yeah, I think they got 20. I mean, let me see. Monica has Why I Love You So Much, For You I Will, Before You Walk Out My Life, Angel of Mine, You Should Have Known Better, Street Symphony, like this and like that, So Gone. Just one of those days. That was my song. One of those days.
Starting point is 01:35:19 I think that's Don't Take It Personal. Yeah, Don't Take It Personal. Yeah, she got joints. I mean, I don't know if they got 20, but they got joints. I know her and Brandi got a lot of records. And Jill Scott and Erykah Badu is absolutely, that should be a celebration because those are my wife's two favorite artists.
Starting point is 01:35:34 I've been to more Jill Scott and Erykah Badu concerts than anybody. That Sugarwater Festival that they did from 05 to like, I think it was 0405 or 0506. When it was Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Floor Tree, and Queen Latifah. My God. My God. This is going to be exciting.
Starting point is 01:35:48 I'm looking forward to May 9th. I'm already ready for it. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Ms. Yee. Hey, also, too, man, I'm hearing Joe Biden is allegedly putting out his black agenda between today and tomorrow. I think today.
Starting point is 01:36:04 Not that nonsense he has on his website. If you remember on February 28th, the Root put out a ranking of every candidate's black agenda, and at the time, Joe Biden didn't have one. In fact, he said a black agenda is an American agenda, but I guess his team is hearing the noise coming from the community, and he knows that black voters aren't voting out of fear this year, and they are voting their interests.
Starting point is 01:36:22 And if you're not thinking about our interests, a lot of us aren't interested in you. So I'm hearing Joe Biden's black agenda is supposed to come out today, today or tomorrow. All right. Well, shout to Revolt. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Everybody else, the People's Choice mixes up next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. I just want to shout to everybody that came to my Jamaican party over the weekend you know we were supposed to be
Starting point is 01:36:48 in Jamaica this weekend for our KC Crew retreat but of course that bitch Corona destroyed it for us so we just had a party at the office and we made it a Jamaican theme we had sand we had a mini pool we just had a whole set so shout to Nori for DJing
Starting point is 01:37:04 and Gia curated that playlist. She put the playlist together and it was just a great time. We had close to 100,000 people that stopped through. So I just want to say thank you for everybody that's stopping in. And I think we're going to do one maybe Memorial Day. I think Memorial Day, I think we'll do one
Starting point is 01:37:20 by the pool and do something big again. Just a little fun, just to get people away from it. You don't think we'd be outside by Memorial Day? When's Memorial Day? September? No, that's later. Oh, May. May.
Starting point is 01:37:29 May. You don't think we'd be outside by May? No, let's rephrase that. Let's say that again. I won't be outside by Memorial Day. I don't know if you will be, but I will not be outside. So I will be here doing a party from here. I am not going outside.
Starting point is 01:37:44 True. All right. All right. When we come back, we got the positive notes. So don't move. It a party from here. I am not going outside. Alright. When we come back, we got the positive notes. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Today is going to be a great day on the East Coast, so try to enjoy the weather out there.
Starting point is 01:37:59 I see a lot of you guys are crazy. Y'all going to the beaches. Y'all close to each other. Y'all in parks. You're close to each other. Please stay away from each other. Six feet are crazy. Y'all going to the beaches. Y'all close to each other. Y'all in parks. You're close to each other. Please stay away from each other. Six feet at least. Y'all enjoying the moment, all right? I have to remind you guys the deadline is coming up, and I've been telling y'all this since last week.
Starting point is 01:38:15 If you did not file a tax return last year and you have kids under 17, you must act now to get that $500 economic impact payment per child. I know there's a lot of people out there right now who can use this money right now. So don't not get your money. Make sure to get it done by tomorrow. The deadline is tomorrow to get your payment in 2020. Go to irs.gov and enter your information and the non-filer tool by tomorrow. Do it today.
Starting point is 01:38:40 Okay. And, you know, we was talking last week. Well, we really, we've been talking about it for the whole past year about, you know, we was we was talking last week. Well, we really we've been talking about it for the whole past year about, you know, candidates having a black agenda. And Joe Biden is allegedly putting out his black agenda today, today, tomorrow. You know, not that nonsense he got on his Web site. If you go to his Web site, it's literally just a bunch of other policy pieces from different sections of his agenda. And they put they put black on it. But but apparently he's having a real black agenda released today. I guess his team is hearing all the noise,
Starting point is 01:39:11 and he knows that black voters aren't voting out of fear this year, and we're voting our interests. And if you're not thinking about our interests, a lot of us aren't interested in you. So Joe Biden's black agenda will be happening today or tomorrow from what I'm hearing. And that's good, you know what I'm saying? Because, you know, everybody was trying to say what Diddy did last week was irresponsible.
Starting point is 01:39:28 There is nothing irresponsible about demanding something for your vote. Your vote is quid pro quo. You should demand something from these politicians and these people who want to be your leaders and they should give you something back in return.

Yeah, so I would assume that she is making sure that all these things are getting lined up and in place and putting the right people in positions.
Starting point is 01:39:53 I always feel like I really pay attention to who these candidates are surrounded by, who are they putting into positions of power, because I do feel like you have to listen to those people. And those are the ones that will influence a lot as well. So what a problem with Joe Biden. He's an old school white establishment Democrat.

But we'll see what happens today and tomorrow. All right. Well, you got a positive note for the people?

When you let go and don't take things personally, there is a huge amount of freedom that comes to you when you take nothing personally. Breakfast club, bitches. You all finished or you all done? Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own?
Starting point is 01:41:07 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.
